The Doubleday Court Martial.

The DOUBLEDAY court MARTIAL so
called from the name of it's presiding Off
Ger, has been in session now nearly SIN
months engaged in the farce of trying a
contractor who cheated the Navy De-
partmsnt in the sale of some linen duck,
aud the inspector who aided in the fraud.
The expenses of the trial have already
amounted to much larger sum than the
whole amount paid for the cloth, and bid
fair to make a moro extensive swindle
upon the taxpayers of the country than
was perpetrated by the criminals the
court was convened to try. The contrac-
tor, CozzENs, was found guilty and ar
rested by order of the Secretary of War,
but was afterwards released in obedience
to a writ of kabeas corpus issued from the
Supreme Court OF Pennsylvania, and is
now at liberty and free from any punish.
ment which the court martial can iudict
NEAL, the inspector, is still on trial, but
if the military tribunal attempts to in
fiict any punishment upon him he too
will be demanded by the civil court So,
notwithstanding the burden of debt nn
der which the nation is staggering, the
money wrung from the industry of the
people is still thrown away in paying the
expenses of courts martials and the sala-
ries ofmilitary officers employedin them,
when it is morally certain that all their
proceedings will be set aside by the legal
tribunals. There is a very wide spread
and rapidly growing opinion among the
people of this country, especially in the
loyal States where the process of civil
courts is now and always has been unob-
structed, that these courts martial for the
trial of civilians are inexpensive aud use
less hImbug, and that the sooner they
are discontinued the better it Will be,

The Tribune perceives the folly and in
| Justice of compelling blacks tn contract
with whites under the direction of
brigadier-general; can it not see the fol-
IL and injustice of compelling whites to
contract with blacks under the same
shoulder-strap supervision Every man
in the Southern States recognizes that
slavery is dead. The black race has
risen TO the right and duty of taking
care of itself The free States have done
what was never done before in the histo-
| nv of mankind-interfered in the internal
policy of other States in matter of
property and race. Whether wisely, in
Constitution, it is now utterly useless to
inquire. What is done is done. Now, if
the negro is an equal man with the white,
why bother about him. He was tied, he
is united; let him run the same chance
of human existence as his late MASTER
Capital wants labor at the South as much
as elsewhere lis as useless without labor
as a bag of diamonds to man perishiDg
with thirst in desert Why not leave
the late master and the late slave TO set
tie their own relations as employer and
employe. There may be some Earring at
first, but interest will soon set the matter
right.
If can farm one hundred hauds prof
itably at a certain rate of wages, B will
not let his farm 60 unworked because he
is sullen and stupid more than one year,
and there are more As than BIS in the
world, or else our system is failure
The great want of the South now is to be
let alone. We once would not let the
slave states alone, and wo got war with
a debt of over three billions; now We
have our darling wish-abolition. 1t We
stop meddling. all may yet be we'll; but
if not, we shall possess the most magnlh
cent pauperism ever known, and the
Southern States will dwindle year by
year,
One million blacks have persisted with
in the last four years; for the most part,
probably, it is the old, the young, and
the female who have died.
We recognize that the rotting out of
the quarter OF race III a short space,
and all the other miseries past and pres
emit of our war, are very cheap price to
pay for the possession of power by the
acknowledgements sbusiness" party, and
for the exclusion from power OF the
"mind-your.own-busiu party But
cheap as it is we should like to diminish
it and in the interest of the negro, for
of the white we properly make no &C
count, we ask the Tribune to extend the
benefit of its good sense to both whites
and blacks.

KENNEDY and the Antislavery Amend

military authorities to harass the people
of Kentucky until the antislavery amend

VET military garrisons are maintained i'll
every considerable town, and systematic
course of oppression and annoyance is
pursued against all who oppose the
ar;.uGment of the constitution And
vel this is called republican govern
m,nt in which the will of the people is
supposed to be law
Only few days ago a conservative
candidate for the legislature III Ken
tnckv was assassinated, i'll the presence
OF his daughters, by some cowardly mis-
creant who fired upon him from conceal
ment by the roadside. 1t is now stated
that General PALMER, a radical abolition
ist who is the military commander in
K.ltucky, arrested last Thursday six or
seven candidates for the legislature and
committed them to prison upon charges
of disloyalty. 1t is By such means as
this that the radicals hope to obtain SUI
premacy. The bayonet is all powerful.
1t is first employed to despOil the people
of their property and rights and after
wards used to compel the legalization OF
the wrong. In view of the principles
and practices of the Republican party
we never could see very clearly the
necessity for "a formal amendment
of the federal constitution. The
provisions of the old instrument have
heen repeatedly and shamelessly violated
by the party in power, and we have no
guarantee that it will obey the amended
constitution any better than the one now
nomiually in force. Ii is needless for the
radicals to alter the constitution, it never
was respected by them and never stood
in the way of the accomplishment of their
designs Besides this, il is doubly foolish

prohibit slavery, for it is the chief article
in the creed of modern loyalty" to main

any validity or force, the constitutional
amendment is useless and all the money

grievous crime when such means are EN-
ployed in its enactment as are now wit
messed in the State Of Kentucky.

Ch..e =, n Humorist,

The country Will be glad TO learn inst
Chief Justice CHASE has returned from
his electioneering tour in the Southern
States. The dispatches this morning in
form us of his arrival in Washington
City, and, judging from the. brief but ex-
ceedingly funny report he gives, we
think it likely that he intends starting
comic paper devoted to the interests of
the black race, and the amusement of
mankind. The Inauguration of the May
or of Fernandina, and the speech to the
negro children of New Orleans will prob
ably receive due attention in the new
journal, and be splendidly illustrated
with portraits of the principal charac-
tiers. Evidently Mr.. CHASE is destined
to be considered the Prince of Humor-
lists, "a. WARD" and his cOmpeers being
completely thrown in the shade by this
brief version of CHAsE's report. We hope,
however, for the sake of humanity, that
if the Chief Justice can be any funnier
than he is in. the dispatch, he will
have mercy upon the people and never
venture to be as funny as he can. The
consequences would be dreadful. The
idea that the negroes are to be the doni'
nant race in the South and that the
whites, outnumbering the blacks two to
one, are TO be '.eradicated," is just about
as ridiculous as the people can, with any
degree of safety, stand, and it is to be
hoped that Mr. CHASE will not indulge in
any more prophecies until we have re-
covered somewhat from the effects OF
this. Don't, SALMON P, don't 1--we beg
of you, don't say any more for little
while, at least Ifyou must tell us any

Supreme Court should grow any worse,

A great deal of dust has been raised by
the Republican journals about the re.
suit of the recent municipal election in
Richmond. The Mayor elect was former
ly soldier in the rebel army and the
majority of the other candidates elected
had been more or less Identified with the
Southern cause. 1t is therefore claimed
that the election was triumph of the
sscessioaists over the Union men. This
is positively denied by all the Richmond
papers, except the Republic, the organ of
the defeated candidate; and il turns out
that the friends of Mr. TAYLOR, the So
called Union candidate, published a card
soliciting the soldiers vote in his behalf,
on the ground that he had had three sons
in the Confederate army and warmly
sympathized with the cause himself On
the morning of the election, however:
Mr.. TAYLOR published statement, de-
claring that he had been friend of the
Union during the whole progress of the
War. A special dispatch to the Philadel-
phia Inquirer. rather an unreliable source,
now says that General TERRY has set
aside the election, aud forbidden the
newly elected officers from entering upou
the discharge of their duties. some bet
ter authority is needed for the confirm
alton of the report of SO palpable a
wrong than can be afforded by a PhAa-
adelphia special.

GENERAL GRANT authorizes the state
ment that all organizations of troops will
be discharged at the earliest possible
date. There will be no general order for
mastering out, but as fast as regiments
can be spared they will be seat home on
special order. The troops in General
Shermans military division are likely to
be mostly kept in service for some weeks
but all Others will probably be sent home
inside of month.
