New-York daily tribune. [volume] (New-York [N.Y.]) 1842-1866, 1860-06-05

When Mr.. WinslOw and his Democratic asso-
ciates on the CovOde Investigating Committee (and
sequcntly in the House also) resisted the efforts
Of the Republican members of that Committee to
make Collector Schell disclose the names Of the
contributors TO the New-York Hotel Election
| Fund, whereby Pennsylvania was carried for Bu-
charan at the State Election of 1856, We promptly
and earnestly sustained the Democrats, and con-
demned the course of our political friends. True,
we bel eve that money was used fraudulently; that
victory obtained by the whOles ale manufacture and
use of counterfeit Naturalization Certificates, and
the most gigantic rascality and corruption. But
we had no evideDce-and we could not hear
that the Committee had any-impIicating the pri-
vate citizens who convened at the NewYork Hotel
and contributed their thousands to the Democratic
Election Fund Of any culpable completely in those
frauds-any knowledge that such frauds were to
be committed. They gave their money, as thou
sands of all parties at sundry times have done, to
secure the triumph of their party; and we thought
il wrong to hold them up to personal iniamy as
conspiratOrs against the purity of elections until
some positive completely in the corrupt use made
of their money had been brought home to them.
We believe the views we then expressed COM
manded very general approval The majority of
the Committee and Of the House paused, virtually
admitting their justice; the attempt to coerce DIR.
schell to disclose the names was virtually aban-
doned; and the Committee has since confined its
Investigations within the limits thus practically
assigned to it,
But the Democratic members Of the Committee

THE TRADE IN NEGROES.

1t is certainly sound principle that so long as
portion of the Southern States are permitted by
the Federal Government to supply their demand
for labor through the Saye-Trade, that they
should also have the right of choosing through
which trade, whether the domestic or the foreign,
they shall draw that supply. 1t is unquestionabe
that, for good reasons, they prefer the traffic with
tie coast of Africa to that with the coasts of tho
Chesapeake. The Congo negro is a cheaper animal
than that from Virginia; he is untainted with the
vices OF tie white man; his flesh is not SO Injured
to the lash, and it is easier, therefore, to subject
him to plantation discipline, and whip out of him
that amount of productive labor which the seven
years-the allotted life of slave in the sugar regions
should yield. The humanitarian argument is not
less strong. The poor wretch from the wilds of
Africa suffers less from the rupture of family ties,
less from the breaking up of old associations, parts
from no kind master, leaves behind no cherished
civilizations; considerations which add new pangs
and new degradation to the lot of the black or
parti.coored Virginian who is driven to the
shambles of Baltimore OF Norfolk. Our laws on
this subject PROFESSIONALLY need revision. Let us
have no SlayeTrade or else permit the laws of
commerce to have free action, and give the cOun-
try that traffic which is the least Objectionable
and the most profitable. On this point we differ
with reeaters Of the whtcst heat only in one par
tieular; in the alternative presented of no Slave.
Trade or unrestricted Slave Trade, their choice
would not be ours, though rs between the foreign

my immediate associates in this body, with whom
enjoy the fellowship which is found in thinking alike
concerning the Republic, owe thanks, which seize

me throughout the pro,racted seclusion enjolned
by medical skill and l trust that il Will not
be thought unbeeoming in me TO put ON record
here as an apology for leaving my seat 80

successor that acted under the illusion Of an invalid

and of the House at length repudate their own
doctrines and denounce the Republicans tor having
deferred to and acted upon them They are dis
satisfied with the restriction Of the Commuters
sphere of action which they so lately insisted on,
and insist on renstituting general inquiry into
the contributions Of money by private citizens Tor
Election expenses and the use made of such con
tributions. 10 other words: they low denounce
the majority for not doing what they so strenuousy
insisted should not be done.
We cannot change front thus rapidly. We sup
ported them in their former position because we
believed il rights we are therefore unable to sup
port them in their new attitude which, if they
were right before must be palpably wrong. But
we co not regret that the Republicans in the House
are under no such constraint, and are both ready
and willing to give the investigation the new and
boundless scope demanded for it. We are sure il
il wrong in principle to institute vague inquiry
as to whether anybody has ever done anything
wrong and thereupon summon witnesses from
every part of the country to testify as to any ex
ceptonable use of money 10 elections which they
may suspect or may be suspected of knowing some
thing about. Thus every seat in the House may
be virtually contested and placed in jeopardy
though nobody cootestsit and there is no response
bic allegation that wrong has been done or suffered.
Still, if the Democracy desire this sort of investi-
CATION, we approve the course of the Republicans
in allowing it TO take place: only let it be clearly
understood that the cost of summoning and ex
aiming Mr.. Winslow's witnesses is not scored up
against Mr. Covode and the Republicans. Let
each party bear the responsibility of its own acts,

Senator SUMNER made yesterday very long
and doubtless able speech on the Slavery question,
of which we give synopsis iD the proper place.
We have said that Mr.. Summers was doubtless
strong and forcibe speech; and yet we wish
he had made if on some other bill than that pro-
yidipg for the Admission of Kansas. For VEIN
common, we trust, with all Republic ans-are ex-
ceedngly anxious that this bill should pass at the
present Session, so as to allow the new State to
vote for Lincoln and Hamn Dext November, as
she is known to be ready and anxious to do. But
her immediate destiny is likewise known to be in
the hands of her enemies in the Senate-that is, of
those who would rather she were kept out than
let in at presents because they are certain to lose
relative weight by her Admission. We fear that
such Speeches as Mr.. Summers, made on this BILL
will afford pretext, though no reason for voting
or managing so as to defeat her Admission this
seasonal result which we are sure Mr.. Sumner
would deplore AS heartily should We shall
be most happy to learn that our apprehensions are
not well grounded; but Mr.. Chesnut's abusive re-
tort is not calculated to dispel them.
