A Nam Cause of the Defeat at Charleston.

A principal cause Of the defeat of our navy
In Charleston harbor is that fanatioism abou
the negro Of which Mr.. Chase gaveeo remarka
Bile sample in his recent letter addressed to the
meeting In Union square to celebrate victory
which was not achieved, but might long since
have been but for the pernicious counses of the
Secretary Of the Treasury. The letter 10 mig
ger at the beginning, niger in the middle and
nigger at the close. IL 10 all niger The
white man is completely ignored.
While Mr.. Seward is the conservative inau-
ence in the Cabinot-the salt that saves Is
from utter putrefaction-M Chase 10 the radi-
cal and revolutionary influence which has made
shipwreck of the Union cause in South Carolina,
and has prevented success every where. Under
the direction and control of this influence, the
whole time aud eaeTgies of our Generals ever
since they landed at Port Royal have been de-
voted to the realization of the vain dream OF
elevating the negro to social and political
equality with the Caucasian race. Every sane
man who knew anything Of the subject knew
that every euch attempt must fail; 10: what
was IL but an absurd effort to reverse nature'5
laws? AS well might il BIO attempted to elevate
an Intelligent monkey as an Intelligent contra
band to the level Of the white population Of
this country; as well try TO make donkey
equal 10 an hrkDlhn nOfho' Auue, lu1bcuu VI
"moving on the euemy's works" at Charleston
before the enemy bad time TO make them impreg-
nable, precious days, weeks, months, and years
have been wasted in what is as impossible as 10
change the skin OF the black to white or his
curled Hoel to straight hair. How could sue.
cess attend our arms under such conditional
Negroes themselves do not desire TO be placed
in the anomalous and ridiculous position which
the visionanes are demanding for them.
they know that they would be like 80 many
fish out OF water. They would not be in their
element. All they wanted and now want 10 to
be let alone. They and their children viii nev.
r cease to curse the AboliliCnists. Look how
the Florida Digger expedition has wretohedly
failed. The negroes will not fight for equality
with white men. Even 10 Massachusetts black
regiment cannot be drummed up, after all the
promises of Governor Andrew.
In fact, the whole theory OF the radical fanat.
les about the negfo has completely broken down,
and never has there been such failute of any
Administration In tho practical working of its
distinctive principles. Yet in the face OF over
whelmng facts the radical leaders in the Cabl-
net and outside of II persist in carrying out their
doctrines, even to the destruction of our army
and navy, and the total aud final disruption and
overthroR of the Republic, unless the ballot
box pAts stop to their mad career.-N.Y. Her.

Mr. MoSwEENEY, Of Wooster, in late speech
at that place, suggested the folIoSing preamble
and resolutions a. test of the eincerity and
belief oil the AbolitiOnists, who are daily aud
without stint of measure, and in select phrases
of special insult, charging the Democracy wish
the crime of treason, and with rendeGing aid
and comfort to the secessionists of the South.
If they believe the charges, these resolutions
should be passed by all the Abolition Leagues.
If they are made falsely, wickedly and mali
ciously, every good man. Of whatever party or
creed, should hold the authors Of the accusation
guilty Of furnishing aid and sympathy TO the
rebels

WHEREAs, Many Of the copperheads are poor,
hard working men With large families, and are
unable TO raise the sum of three hundred dol

WHEREAS, We have denounced the whole
Democratic party, and all its members as reb-
els, traitors, secessionists and rebel sympsthi-
zers, and have insulted them in every manner
known to our most accomplished black guards;
and,
WHEREAs, Unless zoe haue 6dseIy belied them,

The Political Exclusives.

On the proposition Of members Of the Abo.
lition party in some parts Of the country to with
draw themselves from social and ordinary In.
tercourse with conservative people, and estab.
lish strict lines of acquaintance and friendship,
excluding therefrom all who do not belong to
their political party, the Journal Of Commerce
says at the close Of an article;
We can imagine nothing more ridiculous than
the idea Of the radicals in New York attempt.

business relations, and yet there are some Of
them who are 80 blind to their weakness here
as to be advocating and urging such on attempt
The only danger likely to result from ills the
provoking of the conservatives into similsl

descend rapidly in the gradatons through which
sometimes social cliques are compelled to fall

Persecution of Political Oppone ents.

A correspondent of the Boston Courier, writ
ing from Manchester, N. H., relates several
instances Of Workmen having been discharged
from the mills In that place for having voted
the Democratic ticket, and whose families are
now dependent upon public charity to save them
from. destitution. One Of them, an old man
named Foley, had sent three sons, the support
of his old age, into the army, and all OF them
had died in tho service. This was bis reward
for q patriotism that had made desolate his own
hearthstone to defend the government.
The Hartford Times has published columns
containing instances OF similar tyranny in Con-
necticut. Iu one instance, On inffm old man,
not employed In the mills, voted q white ticket
(the Administration tickets were Yellow, and
the magnanimous owners OF the mills wreaked
their vengeance upon his daughter by diecharg-
ing her from work, and turning him and his
family out of the little houee IN which they
lived. In Plymouth, man hafing refused to
vote the Abolition ticket, his family, in his alb.
sence, were turned out Of the house, the furni-
ture was thrown into the street, and family oil
negroes were installed.
We might quote hundreds of similar instan-
ces If we had the space, but these will serve to
show the spirit Of New England Puritan patri-
ots who are now 80 boisterous in protesting
their love for the Union. The case of Foley
here related is test OF their sincerity, and il

Internal Revenue Decisions.

The Commissioners of Internal Revenue has
decided that the making of 6re-brick is strictly
a manufacture under the excise law, and that
the maker must pay three per ceDtum ad valo-
rem, and render monthly returns.
The Commissioner has also decided that the
production Of maple sugar Is a manufacture
and liable to the same tax. The following de-
cisions are also made.
Owners or captains of vessels must take q
dealers license to authorize them to sell wood
or other products from the decks Of said YES
sells. pr
A license as dealer to sell lumber OF the
place where sawed, does not authorize sales at
any other place, either by the cargo or In less
quantities.

Siege Of vicksburg-Cotton New
Canal.

A correspondent Of the Cincinnati Gasstte,
writing from Young's Point La, under date
of April 7sh, closes series of paragraphs on
cotton in the army by quo ting the following
language of one whom he calls "a close OBJ
server Of the siege Of vlcksburg:"
There Is not an officer who holds position
of influence or Importance who 10 not In some
way implicated In cotton traffic. All from
high and low, If their positions give them op-
portunity, are making money out of cotton
The country Is expending millions of money
with the result Of allowing those In authority
to accumulate millions.
The writer says, however: al
believe the above to be too sweeping in III
nature, for there are, strange as il may seem, q
few honest men in the army. It is greatly tc
their credit that they have remained 90 amid
all the temptations around them. But per-
son who has been accustomed to look upon all
men as upright, would be astonished to know
how little short of the truth the above assertion
falls. isf ~ W.

A GLANCE over the country, says the New
York Journal Of Commerce, exhibits in the ra -ka
Of the conservative men an array of intellectu-
al ability and social refinement which must be
regarded as the grand dependence of the country.
Our eminent ex'Presidenss, our most distin-
guished judges, our venerable and wise states
men, leading mon in all the professions, the
merchant princes of our grea. cities, our accom-
plished scholars, distinguished authors and men
who are renowned the world over as ornaments
ofAmerican society and publio life, all belong
TO the conservative ranks, ard all eadfAstly re-
sist the tendency of radicalism TO degrade our
national character.

The Army of the Potomac Advancing.

II will be seen by dispatches In this morn
ing's paper that large force from General
HooKER's army has crossed the Rappahannook
under General STonEMAN, and advanced on Cul-
pepper and Gordonsville. The report that ouI
troops had occupied GOrdonsvillo appears, how
ever, to lack confirmation. Further and more
authentic news from the same quarter will b.
looked for with deep interest.
