DETROIT, Mich, Sept. 81, 1896
The visit Of the English capitalists TO Detroit was
marked by the demonstrations which attended the
more portion Of their trip Upon their arrival in
the city they were met by committee Of the Board Of
Trade who had omnibuses In readiness and conveyed
them 10 the Russell House. After short rest at the
hotel carriages brought the door, foreign
visitors were driven to the wharf, where they embarked
on the eryboat Windsor for excursion to view the
city BY water About hafpast O'Clock the steamer
got under way raversing the river above and below

TIE HERALD In THE SoUTH-PRACrICAL RE-
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES the restoration of peace
we have had several applications from Rich
mond for the NEW YORK HERALD. Old subscri-
bers are requesting that their papers shall be
sent on, as they were four years ago, and new
subscribers are sending on subscriptions for the
paper. All their communications are couched
in the most loyal terms. The hiatus in civili-
cation in the late rebel capital has EVIL
IDENTIFY become wearisome to the Richmond
people, and they are anxious to all II up as
soon as possible. We are also constantly re-
ceiving advertisements from that city, announc-
ing the opening Of hotels, the sale Of FARMS the
rights and privileges in mill property, and 80
forth; all Of which find due place in our adver-
tisng columns. II is evident from these facts
that the South Is eager to obtain contributions
of Northern capital; and no doubt 1t will
be cheerfully invested in that way. The
true method Of reconstruction is to be found
In commercial interchange Northern money
and Northern men will do more to effect con-
solidation Of the two recently hostile sections
than acts Of Congress or executive proclama-
tions; or, at least, they will give force and
bring speedy results to diplomacy, which is
always slow and methodical in working out its
aims.
We are practical people, and live in prac-
teal age. We cannot wait for years, as other
nations do, to bring questions to an issue
which involve the prosperity of the State and
people. Time is valuable to us, and we i'm
prove every hour as we live. Hence the in
stincts and the actions of the people outrun the
limping progress Of Diplomacy. The exhausted

WHERE ARE THE IAs?-Many people
supposed that after the war was over the South
ern country would be infested. with guerilla
bands but, strange to say, since the surrender
of Kirby Smith and Dick Taylor, there has been
no trouble with guerilas. This fact bears out
what we said some time ago. that brigandage
was an exotic that IT was Spanish and Italian
institution, and could find no root on this soil.
However, it would be curious 70 know whore

The CHASE RADICAL OFFICEHoLDERs.-The
developments at the recent Cooper Institute
meeting have shown the necessity of President
JOhnsOn's immediate removal of the Custom
House and internal revenue officials in this
locality. While reaping the benefit Of those
positions under the government, they are using
the influence which their Offices throw around
them to intimidate the President and dictate
his policy. This was the express object of the
recent gathering at the Cooper Institute, as the
resolutions clearly prove. These Custom House
and internal revenue officers are all tools Of
Chase. Most of them were appointed by him,
or through his influence. They are now using
all their influence against the President and
in favor of Chase. The adoption of resolutions
rejecting upon the Presidents reconstruction
policy, and virtually repudiating his decision
on the question of negro suffrage, is but one of
them to advance the interests and plans of the
Chief Justice in opposition to the President.
Many of them are mere demogogues, and care
nothing for the interests Of the country if their
faction is only advanced. They would plunge
the South into social war over the question
of amalgamation with the blacks, negro suf-
frage, or any other question, if they could only
benefit the radical clique. and ride the Chief
Justice into the Chief Magistrates chair in the
excitement.
The point which the President should imme-
diately consider is the fact that they are using
the patronage of the government directly
against his policy, and in favor of his avowed
opponents. This fact the proceedings at the
recent meeting fully establish, and cannot pos
sibly leave any doubt General Grant was
brought here not for the love of Grant, but as
an advertising dodge; and the pretext of being
johnson meeting is shown to be only another
dodge to get the people there. In short, the
whole affair was got up for the purpose of
clarifying themselves and intimidating the
President. But the fact that they were frus-
trated in their plans by the people, who repu-
dated the politicians and hailed with applause
the utterances of the military heroes, does not
in the least remove the guilt Of the Custom
House and internal revenue officials. The
animus is the same, and they will resort to all
other imaginable devices to carry out their
schemes. The only salvation of the admins
tration is in the immediate removal of the
whole batch; nor can it be done too soon.
Music FOR THE MnLLoN.-The Saturday after

net dinner, and we could nnd still other in
stances Of the rigor with which English judges
and juries, inspired by the government have
always pursued those guilty of treason.
And still more recently we have seen how
those nations Of India who have attempted to
throw of the yoke of England, placed on their
necks with cruelty and oppression that have
had no parallel in the history Of subjugsted ma
tions, been treated when subdued. Blown TO
pieces at the mouth Of British cannon, they have
experienced what 1t is 10 have rebelled, and
what is the punishment dealt to rebels by
British humanitarians. II Is, therefore, pretty
clear that any lectures, or oven any advice
