Bad Feature of the Times.

4 few persons have become suddenly very
rich, and can afford, therefore, to be very
eXtravagaht, and are so. Others, hereto
fore the social equals, perhaps superiors of
this shoddy aristocracy, and who have not
been lucky enough TO get Government con
tracts or positions of great profit, and have
been too honest to rob the Treasury, still
feel unwilling to fall behind the snobbs in
display, and, to keep up with them, spend
all they make, or earn, and more too. Yes,
II is a fact that many persons, especially
young people who have acquired taste for
display AMI amllsements, Ho,o spe,,d all and
eUen more than their means. This il a sad
mistake. They must have the independ-
ence, the moral courage to cease this habit,
and act economically and prudently, or in
II few months when times become harder
and business becomes dull, and situations
can not be had, unless at very low wages.

A National Debt "a National Bies-
gilAu.

This dogma has of late been frequently
pdraded before the people, by the Repub-
iican papers aud politicians, with view OF
rcconciling public sentiment TO the pay
mcnt, and consequent removal of this
great "blcssing," in the shortest time pos
siblc. II the advocates of this dogma
truly regard It as "blessiug," why do they
reject every attempt of the Southern states
to return to their old place in the Union,
that they may become partakers of this
''blcssing'' Perhaps il Is upon the prin-
ciplc that the South has forfeited her right
to 'blessings" Of every kind, whether in
the shape of national debts or free Re
publican Government.

The Chicago Times of Monday, says
Our Washington advices say that Presi-
dent JOHNSON insists that the Tennessee
delegation shall be admitted to Congress.
1t is reported that a majority in both houses
win accedc to his wishes in the matter. 1t
is very right, if the President can not get
in all the Southern States, that lie should
get in as many as he can. After he gets
Tennessee in, let him ''insist' that another
shall be admitted. "lnsisting' was the
business of Congress not long ago when
dealing with the late President, and it
proved to be very effective. "Pressure"
now seems to come from an opposite direc-
ton. 1t is very desirable, if Congress adj
mits the Tennessee delegation, that it
should give reason for so doing while ex-
cludiug the others.

This Smncl,s of Trcnson.

The Secretary of the Treasury made
some very Democratic and, therefore, trca-
sonablc assertions in his Report, chief
among which we notice the following;
II am satisfied that no State can he gov
erned under a republican form of govern
ment where threc-fourths of the people,
embracing the largest taxpayers are dis
franchised aud denied a voice In making or
executing the laws Of the state"
This is directly in the teeth of the test
oath system of disfranchiSement. adopted
by Congress relative to the South. That it
is sound doctrine can not be denied, but we
are surprised that the well-meritcd rebukc
should come from such source, II is pretty
clear that the Secretary does not affiliate
with the radical wing of his party. Let us
hope that enough of such outspoken con-
servativcs may yet be found, to thw'Tt the
dcspotic schemes of the fanatics and dema-
gogucs of the dominant party.
