ed reform organizations in this city have all
disastrously hzzled out and are in reality the
greatest humbugs in the city. They have IN
creased the corruption in this city and at Al
bany, and, in fact, the developments indicate
that such was their object With oil their
efforts at reform we have gone on deeper and
deeper, until rank corruption has penetrated
almost every department Of our city and State
government The only departments in this
city which are honestly managed and con-

The END OF THE REBEL DHBr.-President
Johnson's telegram TO Provisional Governor
Holden has completely settled the question in
regard to the rebel debt The President
says:-"Every dollar Of the State debt created
TO aid the, rebellion against tho United States
should be repudisted, finally and forever" He
alphabetically adds:--"Let those who have given
their means for the obligations Of the State
look to the power they tried to establish In
violation Of the laws, the constitution and the
will of the people. They must meet their fate."
The North Carolina Convention endorsed this
view Of the case, and repudiatsd the debt by
the decisive vote Of eighty-four TO twelve All
the seeded States win follow this example, and
thus end the matter. The rebel bondholden
in England can no longer harbor the ghost Of
q hope that the United States will pay them
for aiding to destroy the Union. President
johnson gives final Judgment against them.

<<TRADl AND ConERm WITH THn LPERIALIsss
m MExrco.-N Is well known that . now
steamship line has been started TO run between
New York and Vera Cruz The latter port d
in the possession and under the control Of
the imperialists of Mexico, and the arrange
ments for running this line must have been
made with the Macmillan party, and thus In
opposition TO the old republic. We understand
also that railroad grants have been obtained
from the same source, and number Of Ameri-
cans have connected themselves with these pro-
jects. These schemes are now being followed
by the organization OF a Mexican Express Cotu-
pany, recognized, Of course, by the imperial
party on the Mexican portion of the route.
Among those prominently connected with this
enterprise is gentleman SO well acquainted
with the policy Of the State Department and il
drift on Mexican affairs, as almost 70 surprise
one to see his name mixed up in the enter
prise. Then, several leading rebel officers
have been placed by Macmillan at the head OF
the Colonization Bureau TO obtain American
emigration.
We publish this morning communities
tons from the Mexican Consul General Of the
Juarez government, and Sehor Romero, tho
Minister at Washington from the republic Of
Mexico, calling attention TO those projects and
citing the laws of the country bearing upon
them. They show distinctly that all Of these
schemes, railroads and others, will be repudi-
ated by the republican government of Mexico,
and that they will be sponged from the
slate with one stroke. In view Of the compli-
cations which will soon arise in Mexico, ws
commend these statements to the attention Of
the public as important and curious facts

The Reign of Horror.

One of the teachers for colorcd
schools sent from Chicago, for whose
veracity the Secretary of the North
western Frecdmcu's Aid Commission
vouches, has written letter. dated
at Mobile, from which tho Tribune
publishes the following account OF the
reign of horror in Alabama: -
"A meeting was held here last
night, before which statements were
made as to the treatment OF colored
hy white people, in the interior ofthc
State, which would make you sick of
life. One hundred and thirty-thrcc
dead bodies counted in the woods;
fivc bodies were seen floating in the
river. Two white men were seen TO
pull negro down across log and
cut his head off with an ax. Women
and children were killed. and then
boxed up and thrown into the river.
A woman was killed by white man,
and burial refused by him to her re-
latives. For black man to he seen
with greenbacks in his possession, is
death. Colorcd people are hiding
in the woods, living on berries, fruit,
etc, 20 escape the fury of their for
mer masters. These statements were
made by intelligent, candid colored
men, before IN audience or several
hundred last night.
"In Mobile, through the connivancC
Of somebody, churches and negro
houses are burned, women set to worl
cleaning the streets, men and womci
arrested in bed and taken to thu
guard house, fined or sent to the worl
house, etc. Last night there was ;
heavy fire, in which three or foui
squares, mostly of negro quarters
were burned. Men were heard L
say that before they were done the,
were done they would burn ever,
negro quarter and school house il
Mobile. These things might be rem
edicd." ......
