THE FOURTEENTH ARTICLE.-The
Republicans of Congress hold that
the constitutional amendment, upon
whioh they swept the country in the
State elections of I860, known as
article fourteen, hes been duly rati?
fied by the necessary three-fourths of
the States represented in the General
Government. In each House, we
believe, the subject ia in the hands
of the Judiciary Committeee, with
authority, to report the ratification.
The present Secretary of State, Mr.
eward, has not proclaimed the rati*
cation, because ho holds, with Pre?
sident Johnson, that the endorse?
ment of three-fourths of all the States
inside and outside of Congress is
necessary. With Mr. Wade in Mr.
Johnson's place, however, we shall
doubtless have a Secretary of State
of Mr. Wade's way of thinking on
this nmendmcnt, and consequently,
under a Secretary of this sort, we
shall have tho right to look for his
proclamation of the ratification of
this fourteenth article, making it, to
all intents and purposes, part and
parcel of the Constitution of the
United States. But hero is the diffi?
culty-this amendment, among othor
things, provides that each State for
it"elf shall regulate tho law of the
eiectivo franohise, subject to this
condition : that in proportion to the
exclusion of any portiou of the peo?
ple from the suffrage on account of
race, color, kc, tho enumeration of
the people for representation in Con?
gress shall bo correspondingly re?
duced. This knocks universal negro
suffrage on the head, North and
South; nud so the question is, if
turned over into his hands, what will
"Old Ben. Wade" do with this duly
ratified amendment? He cannot
shirk it without shirking a constitu?
tional duty, and he cannot meet it
without knocking the bottom out of j
the reconstructed radical tub.

A NEGRO KILLED WHILE ATTEMPT
INO TO GET ON A THAIN.-Tho Wil?
mington Journal, of Sunday, says:
"While tho train ou tho Wilmington
and Manchester Railroad was leaving
the depot on the opposite, side of the
river, at 8 o'clock Friday night, a
negro, named G rad ison Cannon, at?
tempted to got. on tim ruiiv and in
doing so fell to tho ground and was
badly crushed beneath tho wheels.
He was found a fuw moments after?
wards, with both legs broken nud
horrible mangled, and ono arm frac?
tured and tho other hand completely
crushed. He was then taken into a
building near by, and everything
possible done for his relief. He
stated that it was through awkward?
ness ho fell; that he was from Marion
District, S. C., where ho had a wife
and severul children, and was on his
way homo, having come to this city
in search of work. He expired about
4 o'clock yesterday morning."
