. .1.. [ratification of the Constitutional
mdnirut a “Condition” of Reator-
SI ion!
IFrom the N. Y. World, Oet. 2*.]
tVlio control tbe Republican parly, the
Radicals or the Conservatives, like Mr. Ray-
oud, who have slunk back to it? Some
0 , u,e Conservatives say the constitutional
amendment is a “ condition ” of Restoration.
jj,. r e js what tbe real rulers, the thorough
Radicals, sav:
[From the Independent.]
" We know personally every prominent
oemher of Congress, and we know that the
■caders do not mean to admit the unadmitted
sates on the mere adoption of the amend
ment. Moreover, we know personally the
leading Radicals of the Republican parly
outside oi Congress, and we know that they
tare no intention of making the amendment
the final measure of admission. To say,
therefore, as the National Committee say,
that, on condition of adopting the amend
ment. as Tennessee adopted It, “ the door
stands invitingly open ’’ for the ten other
States, is to make a promise to the ear to
break it to the hope. * * * To say* with
:lieSyincuse Republican Convention, or with
the address of tue National Republican Com
mittee, that Congress will restore the ten
iraii in g States if these States adopt the
amendment, is to misrepresent the issue.
Slavery was not abolished under the mild
.licence of temptation, but under the strong
mtlneiiee of compulsion; and the negro’s en
franchisement will not be achieved by such
temptation, but by compulsion. According
ly, the Radical party, North and South, white
and black, can asseut to no reconstruction
short ot impartial suffrage.
Nu lending Republican in Congress means
toaumit the ten waiting States simply on the
adoption of the constitutional amendment.
These States are to be admitted on no condi
tions short of the equal political rights of
their loyal citizens, without distinction of
race. A reconstruction of the Union on any
other basis would be a national dishonor.
Until the rebel States can come back on this
basis, they shall not come back at all.”
Hr. Boutwell, of Massachusetts, one of the
Star-Chamber Committee of Fifteen, and a
candidate for re-election to Congress, in a
recent speech, said:
“If the present Congressional platform
expressed the whole claim to be demanded
ot the boutli, it was one that he would not
support It was well as far as it went, but it
did not go far enough. There would be no
safety it the South came in and these de
mands were only complied with. Our only
security in the future was in endowing the
colored loyal people of the South with the
elective franchise"’, and the speaker said he
did not intend to vote for the admission of
either of the ten States not at present repre
sented m the Congress of the Unired States,
until impartial suffrage was secured to all the
people of those States. * * * *
He believed that when the Thirty-ninth
Congress assembled in December next, thero
troui'l not be foun,d five men who were iden
tified with the Republican party who would
act he in favor of impartial suffrage in every'
oteot these ten States asm condition precedent
to their admission.”
llr. Boutwell is one of the Radical leaders
of Congress, and knows what he affirms in
‘.his matter to be true; and all the Radical
rulers in the Rump have said the same thing
■n word, and in deed also, when they refused
to puss the bill reported April 30, making
the amendment a “ condition.”

A ROMANCE IN REAL. LIFE.
'■[oilier Claim, her Child—Affect Ing
Scene In Court.
A very affecting ecene took place in the
Supreme Court Chamber* in New York, be
fore Judge Barnard, one which, for the lime,
brought tears to the eyes of nearly every
sptetalor. It appears about six years ago
one Mrs. Barrett left a babe named Edward
Bnrett, twelve days old, with a woman
EMwd Mrs. McCabe. Prom that time till
ntw Mrs. McCabe has brought up, supported
md educated the child.
Tbe mother went South, married agaiu,
Md alter a lapse of the above time, came to
claim her off spring. She asserted her cause
<1111) all the eloquence of a mother’s heart.
5hs. McCabe set forth that she was tenderly
attached to the child; that she had expended
& considerable sum on its behalf. She also
produced letters from an eminent physician
showing that the child had been, as it were,
snatched from death. ■ Tbe little hoy, on bc-
■“K called upon to go to his mother, clung to
Mrs. McCabe, and resolutely refused to go
10 bis real parent. TMb produced quite a
scene. The mother, in a heartrending tone,
ciclalmed :
‘‘Oh, Judge ! Judge 1 Don’t give my
child away—my heart will break—it will
break!”
"Don’t break the child’s heart,” tearfully
but energetically responded Mrs. McCabe.
.The Judge for a few moments was evi-
"cctly embarrasse* but at length said :.
"My good woman, (to the mother) your
^se i» a hard one; hut your child is of ten-
oerage, delicate in bealtb, and evidently at-
jachui to the people who have always
"Might him up. If I give him to you now,
jmd you take him South, he will surely die.
1 "'ll let him remain where he is for one
tear. By thut time he wiU be stronger and
“calthier ; then, if you. apply again, your
application may be granted.
Counsel for the mother here said that Mrs.
-IcCabe had offered to give up the child il
she was paid $50. .
Tnis Mrs. McCabe denied.
Judge Barnard said that if <$75 were
^uitd to get the child back, the mother
should call on him, and be would give it to
btr.
, "1 do not want to sell the child," said Mrs.
McCabe.
The parents then left the Court, the mother
“jibing with grief, but tbe boy ciiDgiDg to
Mrs. McCabe’s neck with an intensity of af-
'“Clion almost painful to witness.

The Experted Meteoric Shower in Move
ber.
The public has been advised for some time,
by tue papers, that on or about the -12tb,
14th or 16th of November, proximo, a grand
meteoric display, such as has not been wit
nessed since 1833, would occur. We learn,
through the National Intelligencer, that ProL
Ferguson, of the National Observatory, is
making arrangements to take scientific obser
vations on the expected phenomena. The
Washington paper furnishes interesting data
on the subject, a portion of which we subjoin
as possessing no little interest in connection
with the nearness ot the anticipated display:
The appearance of shooting stars .is quite
common, but in the months of August and
November' of each year they are seen m
greater numbers, generally about tbe 10th of
August and 12th of November. The great
meteoric shower of 1709 seems to have drawn
the attention of astronomers more particular
ly to this subject, and from that time to the
recurrence ot the meteoric showttia in 1833,
and up to the present day, they 3 have been
endeavoring to refer the different phases and
characteristics of the phenomenon to known
laws, and to establish the exact anniversary
ot its appearance.
Thus far the more brilliant of these meter
oric showers have occurred at intervals of
thirty-three years; that of 1833 was espe
cially distinguished by the immense numbers
of moving meteors to be seen at once, and
lor the remarkable size and splendor of many
of them. Among the myriads of blazing
meteors visible on that occasion, one was
seen at several places on this continent. It
was recognized by several observers by its
extraordinary size and brilliancy, as well as
by the length of time its train remained visi
ble, which was about ten minutes. The lu
minous train seemed to follow the meteor in
a serpentine course, and finally disappeared
in a vast nebulous cloud, many times larger
than the moon, and which continued to move
onward with a velocity greater than the
clouds.
The meteoric displays of 1799 and 1833
were characterized by the fall of meteorites,
which, rushing towards the surface of the
earth with a loud noise, penetrated beneath
it several feet, 'ibe periodicity of these
starry showers is not so definitely ascertained
with regard to the day as the year. They
have occurred to a greater or less degree in
tiie months of August and November, from
1833 to 1839; but the most remarkable ot
them have appeared on tbe 12th of Novem
ber, or between that day and tbe. 14th.
The next appearance of the meteoric phe
nomenon, therefore, is expected on or about
the 12th of next month. The observations
of astronomers have demonstrated that the
shooting stnrs are more numerous between
midnight and sunrise, aud the majority of
them agree in fixing the radiant, point—that
point in which the lines described by the
meteors in their flight center—in the constel
lation Leo, limiting the area of radiation to
the immediate vicinity. of Regulus, in the
neck of tbe lion. Othe* assign the radiant
point to tbe constellation Orinn.
The theory most generally accepted in ac
counting for the regular occurrence of mete
oric showers is that an unusual aggregation
of these asteroid* exist in the plane which is
reached by the earth at that point o& Us or
bit, and through which the earth iaseveral
hours in passing, although observations base
not been sufficiently numerous to establish
the exact period of the earth’s arrival at this
part of its orbit. During the flight of meteors
iq November, 1833, much apprehension was
manifested from tbe fear that one or more of
these asteroids would come iDto collision
with the earth ; but" hitherto no disastrous
consequences have ensued from this grand
celestial display, and although there Is some
reason to believe that an event of this kind
is possible, scientific men unite in the opinion
that such a calamity is not within the bounds
of probability.
districts jrill be allowed to do so upon ex
ecuting and delivering to the collector of the
district where such- seaport or place is situat
ed,* bond with two or more sufficient sureties
approved by tbe collector receiving it, condi
tioned for the payment of the tax upon all
cotton for which permits may be granted by
the assessor of the district in which such
cotton may be grown. This bond must be
executed in a penal sum equal to double tbe
amount of the taxon the quantity of cotton
intended to be removed and in transitu at
any one time during its continuance, and as
sessors will be careful not to grant further
permits upon any bond when the tax upon
the quantity already permitted amounts to
one-half tbe sum named therein, until cer
tificates of payment of the tax on the whole
or a portion ot the cotton transported under
former permits are received from tbe re
ceiving collector, when additional permits
may be granted; but in no case must the
tax upon the quantitv under permit and ac
counted for exceed one-half tbe penal sum of
the bond.
Thus, if tbe bond is given in a sum se
coring tbe tax upon five hundred bales of
four hundred pounds each, when this limit
is reached no further permit should be
granted, except upon the receipt of de
livery and payment, as hereinafter provided.
Immediately upon the execution of this
bond, the collector to whom it is delivered
will transmit it, retaining a copy thereof in
his office, to the assessor ot the district
whence it is intended to remove tbe cotton,
who will thereupon be authorized to grant
permits for the removal of tbe cotton upon
application being made by the principal or
bis agent. Upon receiving this application,
the assessor will grant permits.
The circular concludes with instructions
to the Assessor and Collector, and it is stated
that if the cotton has not been weighed be
fore remocal by a duly appointed weigher
tbe amount of tax named in the permit will
be based upon tbe weight vs certified by the
owner or tbe proprietor of the gin-hotrse. Iu
order to arrive at tbe true amount of the tax
to be paid on the cotton removed under
these conditions, it must be weighed upon its
arrival in tbe receiving district by the officer
appointed for that purpose, to whom a fee of
twenty-five cents per bale will be paid’ for
tbe service, and upon whose certificate of
the weight, the tax shall be collected. These
considerations are to be considered addi
tional to and as not suspending those con
tained in series 2, No. 5, or tbe additional
regulations published,under date of Septem
ber 25, 1866.
Caught lift HI* Own Trap.
A girl, young and pretty; and above all,
gifted with an air of admirable candor, lately
presented hersetf before a Parisian lawyer.
“Monsienr, T have come to consult you
upon a grave affair. I want you to oblige a
man I love to marry me in spite of himself.
How shall I proceed ?’’
The gentleman of the bar had, of course,
a sufficiently elastic conscience. Re re
flected a moment, and then, being sure that
no third person overheard him, replied hesi
tatingly :
“Mademoiselle, according to onr law, you
always possess tbe means of forcing a man
to marry you. You must remain on three
occasions alone with him ; you can then go
before a Judge, and swear that he is your
lover.”
“And will that suffice, Monsieur ?”
“Yes, Mademoiselle, with one turiber con
dition.”
“Well ?”
'‘Then you will produce witnesses who
will make oath to having seen you remaiD a
good quarter of an hour with lhe indi
vidual said to have trifled with your affec
tions.”
“Very veil, Monsieur, I will retain you as
counsel in the management of this affair—
Good day.”
A few days afterwards the young lady re
turned. She was mysteriously received by
tbe lawyer, who, scarcely giving her time to
seat herself, questioned her with the most
lively curiosity.
“Capital, capital.”
‘ ‘ Persevere in your design, Madamoisellc;
but mind, the next time you come to consult
me give me the name of the young man you
are going to make so happy in spite of him
gp]f_ **
“ You shall have it without fail.”
A fortnight afterward the young lady
again knocked at the door of the counsel’s
room. No sooner was she within, than she
flung herself into a chair, saying that the walk
had made her breathless. Her counsel en
deavored to reassure her, made her inhale
salts, and even proposed to unloose her gar
ments.
“It is useless, Monsieur,” she said, "lam
much better.”
“Well, now, tell me the name of the fortu
nate mortal.”
“Well, then, the fortunate mortal, be it
known to you, is—yourself!" said the young
beauty, bursting into a laugh, “I love you;
I have been here three times tete-a-tete with
you, and my four witnesses are below, ready
and willing to accompany me to a magis-
trate,” gravely continued the narrator.
The lawyer, thus caught, had he good
sense not to get angry. The most singular-
fact of all is that he adores his young wife,
who, by the way, makes an excellent house
keeper
