A Just View of "th? Re-Aotlon Tho following article, from that ubly con ducted Now York papur, tho '?Journal of Commerce," lias a more candid mid just view of tho lo action ill pclitical sentiment in the North and West, as ovinood by tho result of their elections, than any wo have yet read elsewhere. With this article our views coin? cedo, for wo do not believe that re-action in d?calos increasing str?t?g?h to the Democratic nerty1; but merely the sober second thought of tho masses of the people, who arc in favor of peace and restoration, and who think that these should be clfeeted as speedily as posai, ble, irrespective of p?rty organizations or their success : If tho oontinuod re action, as shown in the recent piont ?otis, is interpreted purely as a demonstration in favor of the ulU time Demo cratic party, it will not only lose its re d sig nificance, but it will be likely to do quite as niuoh harm aa gond to the country The strong point which it establishes is, that the mass of tho honest people, who arc not bound in party chains, are sick of radicalism and fa naticism in politics, and in favor of the Con stitution, law and order, nu early restoration of tho. Union, fraternity and prosperity throughout the country. Thc Democrats may ?orno into power, but they must show less cor ruption, Hellishness) and devotion to party than shas marked the course of manyof their promi nent men hitherto, if they are lorn.' accepted ns exponents of tho will of the people. Thc truth is, that the Republican party became so strong, compact and confident, that its leaders felt themselves unchecked, und i men with extreme views vainly thought that they could lead tho whole nation to tho con- ? (Ululation of their wildest projects, in open violation of tho Constitution, and at thc risk j of universal anarchy and confusion. As these radical leaders advanced from one step to an other, their followers fell tiff, their ranks grew j thinner lind less eiithnsi istic, until now thc more thoughtful muong them refuse to budge another ?nell in that direction. They cannot be coaxed nor driven into tho harness again until the course is changed. If tho better o! t>;s among the democrats are disposed to unite with them in a sincere effort at refor mation, their co-operation can bc secured for , such a desirable purpose. Hut the ellice ? seeking radicals, win? betrayed the Democrat- | ic party to ?ts overthrow, will see an opportu- j nity in this crisis, and will rush in, if possible, to assume control of tho popular movement. If it is given to such hands, we may change] fuglemen, but the cr. ?rv will be no better oil' than before. We for better things i than this, however ; and <..i ere fore Congratu late our readers on thc auspicious result, of thc elections. If it does nothing more than di- | vide palli?s more equally, and thus operate a check upon arrogance and partisan presump tion, the effort will not have been lost. If the returns from Ohio aro to be relied Upon, the re action against negro sivurhgo is oven more determined than was expected. This demand in favor of the colored race has been made with so much denunciatory vio lence, that it had aroused the popular antipa thies in a corresponding degree, and it will ho very difficult for any fiction to secure favor mid better educated portion of the race might have been soon red nt an early date. Tho per sistent efforts to extern! the elective franchis t<rtho ignorant massesjust redeemed from bon dage, without names., hffne or habits nf self restraint, has diminished the prospect of any favor in that direction during tho existence of the present generation. One of the pleasant signs connected with Un political change now in progress, is the satis faction at thc result which is plainly visible among the most respectable adherents of the party whose extremists have received such a lebuke. We think that tho views wc have expressed above will meet their hearty ap proval. Conservative Republicans have more reason than liny others to rejoice at this vindi cation of the soundness of their judgment. Tm: LATE ELECTIONS.-Thc "New York Times." says : The Southern papers have really at last got over their doleful dumps, lind trot into a state of something like exhilaration, in view of lato Democratic successes. We hate to dash' their jny in the latest; but it may bo as .well for them to beware of counting too inueh on the lato election?. They hy no means provo that, the Democracy are going to ?weep the country next year, or anything of the kind. They by no means prove that the Rnpuhlio'in party has cnllapsod. or anything of the sort. They may prove that the people of the North arc not prepared to endorse the revolutionary scheme of the more violent par tisans in tho hist Congress ; but they do prove that tho South will never be reconstructed ac cording to the plans of thc Copperhead Dem ocracy. If onr Southern contemporaries can trt learn this by studying the election returns, they will be taught it by others yet to come. PuA.nT.ESTOV.

The Court is invested with more than usual interest, inasmuch as the late difficulty nt Ilunnicutt's Crossing must come before it.

Our in formation is, that thc white people of the State will take littleor no interest ill thc elec tion.

Resolved, That capability and merit, hon esty and fidelity, are tho only test fur office among Republicans. Resolved, That every citizen of the State, who is loyal, and whose devotion to the Union is beyond question, is entitled, so far as tho late Reconstruction Act will permit, to the support of Republicans for places of honor j and trust. Resolved, That wo profoundly depr?cate any line of policy or secret machinations which will array race against race, and citi zens of one class against, another. Resolved, finally, That we, as citizens of South Carolina, profess no other aim than to restore to her people the inestimable bcucGts and blessings of the Union.
