Reconstruction came to an end due to the Compromise of 1877(compromise came about because of the disputed 20 electoral votes from the Election of 1876). Part of the compromise was for Rutherford Hayes (candidate to receive the disputed votes which would make him president if Republican agreed to compromise) was to pull federal troops out of the South. Pretty much as soon as Hayes got into office he signed the orders to pull the troops which was the final straw to the Democrat's "Redeemer" government taking over. Any ground that Recontruction had made since 1863 was down the tubes. We would not see another effective stab at Reconstruction until 1963.

What brought on the end of Reconstruction?

The end of Reconstruction was primarily brought on by a combination of political, economic, and social factors. The Compromise of 1877, which resolved the disputed 1876 presidential election, led to the withdrawal of federal troops from the South, effectively ending federal enforcement of Reconstruction policies. Additionally, growing white supremacist violence, economic hardships, and a waning commitment to civil rights among Northern politicians contributed to the decline of Reconstruction efforts. As a result, Southern states enacted Jim Crow laws, institutionalizing racial segregation and disenfranchising African Americans.
