SINCE the fall elections, some of the
more sagacious democratic newspapers
profess to discoversigns ofthe approach
ing dissolution of existing parties, and
the crystalization of new ones around
other centres of attraction. 1.-THE wish
is father to the thought" 1t is evident
that the democratic party cannot be raj
lied by any ofthe old watchwords, which
are but echoes of dead past, and the at
tempt to steal the livery of the republic
can party, as in the late New York
election, brings only contempt upon the
party leaders. 1t is necessity, there
fore, that the democrats should "recon-
struct" and take new departure,
if they would secure any prospect
of success, or even of continued exis-
tence as II party. 1t remains to be seen
whether they have inherent vitality
enough to slough off their old follies
and blind leaders, and take on real issues
and live men as capital stock for new
start. The New York World, which
was intensely copperhcad during the
war, or until the success of the govern
mcnt was made certain, is skillfully
preparing the way for the new birth of
the democratic party; and the Eccning
Post, always democratic, but working
with the republican party because of the
intldelity of the democrats to liberty
and equal rights, encourages the new
movement by the implied promise that
the war democrats and anti-slavery
democrats will go back to the demo-
cratic party when it shall be recon
Structed and purified

Mr.. WAsRRURN, of Illinois, has in
troduced atseR in Congress to revise the
grade of General and to authorize the
President to appoint n General ''to be
selected from among those officers in
the military service of the United States
most distinguished for courage, skill
and ability, who, being commissioned
rs General, may be authorized, under
the direction and during the pleasure of
the President, to command the armies
of the United States" The pay is to be
one-half greater than that received by
the Lieutenant General; his aids are to
have the rank and pay of Colonies of
cavalry, and when the office becomes
vncant, the act creating it is to be no
longer in force.

KENTUCKY chung to slavery to the
very last moment. But her clutch has
been shaken loose mt length. Yester-
days dispatches recorded the end of our
great American bnrbarism in that and
all other States. Slavery is now car
cass on every foot of the national soil.
The Kentuckians must feel humiliated
indeed. The last trump found them
getting ready to try and punish gal
liant officer who had periilcd his life
for four years to save the nation from
death at the hands of Shareholders
rebellion, for interposing his influence
between them and the pitiable objects
of their despotic code. But they We're
robbed of their vengeance by stroke
of fato mt the last moment. And so the
record will stand when the history OF
these times comes to be written.

The Treasury RePOrt---NO More BOr-
rowing.
In our brief review of Mr.. McCul-
loeh's report, says the New York Tunes,
we assumed that lie tVouId not rant as
much as one hundred and twelve mil
lions to make good his budget from the
LIST of October last to the Both of June
next, and that he tCouId receiye more
than one hundred and eleven millions
in taxes, customs, &c, in excess of his
budget for the next fiscal year, 1866.
These errors of the Secretary, if errors
they should prove, as we confidently
believe they will, are, of course, on the
safe side-on the side of prudence and
precaution, so far as the unseen or UNI
expected contingencies fthe next eight
cen months are taken into the account.
But we have substantial reasons to be-
lieve, and we state them in Justice to
the constantly improving finances of
the government, that the first estimate,
referred to above, of the receipts and
expenditures of the last nine months of
the current fiscal year, observes eX-
IRENE and unnecessary caution, and the
sequel will prove that no further Dor
rowing to the increase of the total of
the public debt will occur within these
nine months.
l. Two months of the nine have al
ready elapsed. The debt on the first of
October was S2,744, DOS, 900, after deduct
ing the cash balanceS-SSS, g77, OOO-in
the Treasury. On the first of Decem-
Der, 1865, it stood S2,7I4, 600, 900, after de-
Quoting S9l, Sll 900 cash balances in the
Treasury. Here is an actual reduction
OF thirty millions. To place the debt.
therefore, ut $2,S56, 900, 900 on the Both of
June next, by the addition of SlI2, OOO,-
600, as estimated, would imply a deficit
of Sl52, 900 i'll the income of the re-
mining seven months, which cannot
be deemed AS probable.
2. The Customs are estimated for the
nine months at only 500, 900, 900. In
october and November they were $780,
100000, say 81 ,OOO, 900 at New York, and
at least 81, 200, 600 the out-ports. These
are two of the dullest months of the
nine, according TO the ordinary run of
the foreign trade, bnt, this point out of
the question, the rate of only Sl5. 600 900
per month give Sl35, 900, 900 for the nine
months, in place of SiOO,OOO,OOO. The
premium on the surplus So, 900, 900, saw
Sl5,OOO,OOO, should be added to the 500
100000 estimated for miscellaneous re-
ceipts.
3. The internal revenues of the same
period are estimated at only SIZE, 600. 600.
or less than $50, 200, 900 per month. The
actual receipts of October and Novem-
Der were at the rate of full 81, OOO, 900
per month, and thus far in December
indicate nearer $4,000, 900. The sue
cecding six months should give at least
Sl37 800, 600, according to the Sccretary's
own estimate, for the succeeding fiscal
year, though it is more likely to be
Sl50,OOO,OOO. To sum up:

1t may lie said with truth that the
Secretary could well afford to estimate
fora possible deficiency for the remain
der of the current fiscal year, because
he felt quite sure of corresponding
surplus Tor the next fiscal year, the APP
plication of which, to the public debt,
would at least reduce the total to where
il stood on the LIST of October. But the
point we desire to make, is that the
debt which stood twelve millions below
the maximum on the LIST of October, and
iorty-two millions below the maximum
on the LIST of December, is not likely,
under any probable contingencies, TO
be incrcascd-in other words, we are to
have no more borrowing. The funding
of existing obligations is, of course,
excepted.
We are quite well assured that the
Secretary also crrs on the safe side in
estimating for II surplus of Sill ,GS2,-
SlS next year, provided the estimates of
expenditure for the army, navy and
civil service are within the mark. We

The unpleasant day OF all the week in this
country, as we'll as in Germany, is thus de.
scribed in the letter OF an American LADY,
ut is one of the chief glories of the German
housewives to possess an abundance of linen
and for the purpose Of displaying their wealth
they put off washing till used up-some three
weeks, some six, some half a year, and those
who are more affiuent having washing but
once year. Every house contains Schwar-
to wasch hammer, where the dirty clothes are
kept hung on poles or lines in the air. When
the drawers and pressers are nearly empty
two or three washerWoman are hired, who
come at two in the morning, take cup of
coffee and some bread with wine or cigar
dine at twelve at three or four, again a cup
of coffee, and then wash till supper at eight
They wash in large oval tubs, at which four
or five can stand at once, SO it goes on for
several days, according to the number of
clothes The remainder OF the week is spent
in ironing--shsets, pillowcases, and the un-
gathered clothes are mangled, aud towels,
stockings, childrens handkerchief, &C., are
only folded During the week no woman in
the family can think Of anything but the wash
and by the end of it some have sore hands
for they use lye, and all are out Of humor.'
