Cabby-, h;a successor, ia. we learn, an old army officer, and has been in command of the District of Columbia for a length of time. Mecklenburg Female College. We aslc attention to an advertisement of this institution in to?day's paper ? From the. information which we have re ceived, we feel warranted in recommend ing this as a most desirabls school. We are assured that there is nothing wanting to insure for the enterprise a complete success, as a first class Institution, hut puDue patronage. m locality is peculiar ly suited to the people of this vicinity.? A catalogue, giving full information, may be seen at this office. The President of the School, the Rev. A G. Stacy. ?b expected to visit this place the latter part of the present week. Gen. Grant and the Radioale. Since the acceptance hv General Grant of the place of Mr. Stanton, sufficient evidence of the spirit of the Radicals has been given to show that *hey will not Support him, unless he is unconditionally committed to their party. They cell h m "deaf end dumb candidate "one of the uoiformed sphinxes?sashed end gird ed etetuea," end other name* equally significant of their contempt and displeas ure et hie apparent endorsement of the President*! recent scheme of strategy.? Those who believe, that, because Grant apprart to be on the Presidents side, and because the New York Herald has said so, there must, therefore, be a change of fttotiment at the North in favor of better terms for the South, will, We fear, find that they have beeu mistaken. The efforts of the President in our behalf heretofore LaVs only served to rivet the chains hy Which we are held in subjection. We trust that the late movements will not result the same way ; but we cannot but believe tbattbo.^e who base their prospects of relief upon this ground, are laboring tinder a dangerous delusion. The Pre I aidant. ???n wilt, Giiavt nnnn ti/ta i can do no more than here tbe laws executed with fairness. Tbe laws ihem selvss are what oppress us, and ibesecan only be changed by the domiuaul party Which made them. Reconstruction Soon after tbe passage of tbereconstmo tlou laws, we advised an acceptance by out peop'e of the terms offered, as being, io our judgment, the best of tbe two evils presented. We believed it was that or worse, and urged upon the people the duty of registration first, and afterwards, when the time for voting should arrive, to vote for a Convention, and endeavor by every fair and lawful means to have ths Convention rnmnntaH of men who Would represent the true interests of the country. Sirce then we have ?e?n r.o reason for a change of opinion. The ait ticla which appeared under our contribu torial head last week, presenting a con ttary view, does not represent the sentiments of this paper io so far as it recommends opposition to a Convention We are of those who believed (bat the Wer should unconditionally cease when oar Generals decided thet resistance was o longer practicable. We bate not recently had much toaat totean the subject of ? Convention, believi ftag that its discussion would be tremetore until after the business of registration is complete. At the proper time* we expect, if necessary, to present to our readers eo'id reasons why an acceptance hv them of the full Congressional plan is the only Course compatible with a hope of safely lad protection for tbem In tbia country. In the mean time, we advise all who ate In doubt aa to our true policy, to read General BtCKLaa* reply to the Charleston Board of Trade, lately published. We are by no insane enamoured with the tone of the Oeneral'a letter. We believe H i? wholly wanting in sympathy for the ttiafortunea ahd distresses of oar people ; but it is, nevertheless, useful in showmg the inevitable purpose of the dominant party Nl respect to the South, nhnutd thMr jropotitwni a grain 6a rrjtrtrd After ad. verting to the several measures provided by the Government to restore tranquility to the seceded States, and rejected by the latter, the General aays in reference to the probable oonaequeneea of a rejection A the tarmo Dew offer*) t J??tt way be assumed that no disability bo removed trom thoee who reeitt, oppose, or ?li?C"UrHrf* reconstruction In e*err Stale where tit* term* offered by Congress hH a I ' be rejected, it it plain tbtt thenceforth po'i'ical power will be altogether end finally remitted to the hand# of thdae who have ever been loyal to the Union. Bv rejection of the terms of reconciliation now ottered^ the uromo 1?ts of discord will, sooner or Inter, Hud themselves without possessions, without franchises, and no longer 'he p-*?r of the humblest eiti/en of the Republic?end then will the rebellion hsve worhed upon its unrepentant authors its own impressive end signet retribution.*' Gen. Popk'b letter to Gen.. Or-ant (published elsewhere) speaks of the ban' I ishment of such men as B FI Hill, who are impediments to reconstruction. Tbe New York Times, a consistent end reliable psper. (far more so than the Hemld, which is utterly unworthy of conGdence) representing tbe moderate Republicans, savs ; " 'The leadine Radical members' have been overborne by more moderate R-puh licaits, because the feeling predominant in the party Is adverse to greater severity than is essential to the completion o( thorough reconstruction. Let it lie gen erallv understood, however, that other and severer penalties are necessary to perfect the work, and ex ingtiish rebel resistance, and these penalties will be prompt!v enacted and sternly enforced. If confiseation of the estates of rebel land owners he found necpssarv. confiscation 6ill be carri ed. It baa been resisted thus far s;mp'v because it ha* not appeared indispens* hie. Tha same apirit which lad Congress to aupp'ement the very mdd constitution al amendment with tha existing law*. w;ll cor* pal the adoption of mora Rad<c*l scheme*, so soon a* the failure of the prei ?ent law shall become apparent." If this i* not language plain enough to be understood bv our people, it most be because thav are blindly committed to a course which will inevitable lead to the ruin of those who pursue it. Singular. For two month* or more, a? we le*rn, a draft for $1 000 in go d..contr buted to tha p<>or of Inn District bv Dr J - Marion Suns, a native of Lancas'er, but now residing in P^rs. has h*en lying uncal-ed for in the Executive Office?not witb*tend tng the Governor hsn addressed not lass than three coinmuntcationa to prominent citizens of that District.

And now we call upon those "prominent citiXens," to whom the G urrnor is snid to have writ ten thrice, to explain why they have not executed the trust committed to them, or I else declined in way that it might have been assigned to others. A.n intelligent public opinion requires this of them.?

Commander of ihn 5>u military Dist The Washington Republic, in annodn eing that ths President through General Grant, haa iaaosd an order relieving Gen ral Sheridan as Commander of the Fifth Military District, headquarters at Naw Orleans, and assigning General George H. Thomas, Commander of the Depart1 mant of the Cumberland, to succeed him, remarks ! Ganaral Thomas having had experience in the work of reconsiruction under the Congressional a?', and having given gen ral satisfaction ?aa daa.nad br the Prea ident and General Grant the l?est man to assume the duty of finishing the work require*) bv Congress In the Fifth Dis trict. This order was promulgated yesterday, and will tadre affect at once. The Dame of General Thomas is a sufficient guarantee thai the Uwe will he executed without regard to politics, m the spirit of fairness, for the greatest good of the greatest number. Much of the bitter feel ing that has been engendered by the announcement that General Sheridan would be removed will he allayed by the fact that he ie to 1* succeeded by such a man as General Thomas, In whom the loyal people all over the country 1 bare ooofi daoce. # Letter from General Pope. Qaneral Grunt, received from General Pope a letter enclosing a patter contain itie a speech made bv Hon B li. Hill, late a Senator in tbe Confederate C<>n greaa lie was pardoned some weeks ag >, and General Pope save that lie being a representative man, tins epeeidt shows the hopelessness of eny satiifactorv fecon I siruction while such men retain it fl ience. Pope thinks thev should he silenced, and save it is better that the battle should be fought now. Congress did well bv dis franchising the leade**, but Oeneral Pope thinks it would have been belter to have banished them, and he is opposed to re lieving the disfranchised classes of their disabilities, i General Pope thinks there are enough men not disfranchised who are competent to fill the civil offices, and sava even if there are not, it is better to have a loyal man in office, though he he incompetent. , Should we effect reconstruction eve<- atter silencing the open opposition of the old , political lenders, we stand committed to admit the recountructed S atea into the Union. One- *dm tted into the Un on. the power of Congress over them is re ' dnced practically to tlie central power i which that body has over ell States in the Union.

The nioin-nt ?-dmis?io-| into the Union is accomphsh-d It- mdi tarv power is suspended. and. with i', a'l restric'iona are removed. A' once these old political lenders nnd the o'd political and personal influences will re?um? their activity and we rnav find too la'e that such reconstruction a* we have made is not nnlv not what was needed and ex peeled, hut what will simply result in the reproduction of the same condition of af j fairs which made reconstruction measures necesssrr nt all.
