I'O THE PUBLIC.

NNHE NEW YORK NEWS has battled
Il against despotism for four years of
blood and terror, i'll assertion OF the sane
tity of the Constitution. A patriotism suf-
ticicntly broad to embrace both sections
has been its only guide, and it refers now
that it has not turned to the right or the
left under all the violence of arbitrary
power. True to it's principles as THE
NEWS has been through the reign of ter
ror, it challenges public confidence in its
honesty and independence for the future.
The political transition Of the present
day opens to THE NEWS new and wider
field of usefulness. Standing now, as it
always has, on the inviolability of the
Constitution, according to the interpreta-
tion of the strict constructionists, it pre-
scnts q rallying ground for all, in both sec
tons, who are friends of n generous con-
servatism. AS n true and tried exponent
OF sectional amity, it occupies a position
which makes it the fitting mediator in
holding up to the party of order in both
sections, interests and principles that gave
breadth and vitality to their alliance. AS
an lntcrscctional agent, devoted to free
dom or election, to trial by jury, to the
sanctlty of the h0bedS corpus, and opposed
now, as for four years of terror it has been,
to the Capitalization tnat dares to trample
ON the rights OF States, North or South,
THE NEWS places itself as 4 candidate
~, .It"AS ~ >A'iS viz ttS10 OoNN vi tIllS
once free people.
The circumstances of the moment make
the dissemination of the principles Of THE
NEWS duty of individual patriotism.
Every man who concurs in its doctrine
must, II he entertain true sense of free
dom, do so III no spirit of Indifference, but
rather with the earnestncss of 4 high trust
Justiticd-nay, bound in his love Of libcr-
ty, to do so, the proprietor places the can
yass he makes here of the public generally
in the hands of those men who give him
the approval of their conscienccs az his in
dividual agents. Every reader of THE
NEWS cannot avoid the conviction Of duty
which is here pointed out as the ground of
the request, that he urges its claims for a
wider support upon all of his friends and
nclghbors who give their earnest sympa-
| thlcs to the cause of ''strict construction :"
intcrscctional CONSULTATION, and all the
rights Of the citizens under the system,
set up by our fathers, of liberty regulated
by law. The proprietor of THE NEWS
cafts, therefore, upon good and true CON
scrvatires throughout the country to dis
charge to their convictions Of political
right ut this great crisis in the country's
fortunes, the duty of giving to the intiu-
cnce of his papcr-daily, scmi-weckly or
wcckly-the wider power for good which it
seeks here through the scrvicc Of its ind-
vidual supporters.

WASHINGTON, May 8.-Thc Senate spent
considerable time, this morning, in the dis
c,,ssion Of joint resolution for preventing
the introduction Of the cholera. The leg
islative appropriation bill was reported.
The House was engaged, to-day, i'll the
discussion OF the constitutional amend
ment reported by the Reconstruction Com
mittee, that being the special order for the
day. The House refused to postpone the
special order and allow the consideration
OF the tax bill, by vote Of 80 against 81.
Mr.. Stevens led off in support of the Com
mittee's report. He said that only nine
teen loyal States were wanted to ratify The
amendment, and he repudiatcd the idea
that the views of the States lately in rebel
lion should be considered in it's adoption.
Several speeches, eacll Of about thirty
minutes duration, were made on the sub
ject; showing decided differences of Opt

Democratic State Central Com.
nuffaee I'm Consultation.

The Democratic State Central committee
was in session yesterday in this city. Their
meeting had reference to the welfare of the
Democratic party. The members Of that
committee and the distinguished Democrats
who met with them in an advisory eapaei-
ty, brought up to the Capital great good
news touching our prospects. Never In a
great many years were they brighter, and
daily are they improving. Greatly are they
encouraged that we shall carry the State
In October. II they are not altogether
mistaken In the signs of the times, it would
be marvel If we would not carry the
State.
The disunion course Of the Radicals In
Congress; their jobbing legislation; their
legislation for the benefit OF the Negroes,
and the Tariff legislation, which amounts
t0a shameless robbery of the great masses
of the people, is doing work for the De-
mocracy that is really surprising. 1t lis do
ing more than Democratic stump speeches
or Democratic editorials. We knew that
1t could not be otherwise than that these
things must work decided change in the
public mind, though we did not expect that
IL would SO soon manifest itself. b

Passage Of. the Tariff Bill.

Error, by its own excesses, sometimes be-
comes its own antidote, as bids fair to be
the case with the tariff. The prOtectionists,
since the West has unexpectedly turned
against them, are In an affrighted autter,
like flock of crows under the discharge
of dozen fowling-pieces. The reaction
against this "bin Of denominations, as 1t
was first prepared, Is the beginning OF an
ebb, which will eventually leave the hulk
of protection stranded In the mud of It's
own antiquated ideas. Mr.. Morrill,, in his
closing speech, spoke of the ''palpitatlDg'
interests of the country. 1t Is the palpita-
ton of returning life, after a long syncope.
When men are reused to oppose some mon
strOus tariff, their minds easily move to the
point OF view from which all protective
tariffs are seen to be absurd. n
The bill was improved before its passage
by the reduction Of the duty on iron and a
modification of some other duties. But
even with these changes 1t Is exceedingly
opposition which has sprung up, did not
dare advocate its passage as being good
measure, but as q measure which Is not so
bad that the Senate cannot amend 1t. Had
It not been for the extreme impatlence of
the members to get home, we doubt wheth-
er it could have passed at all. Unless the
Senate give 1t q thorough overhauling, 1t
will prove short-lived measure; the reac-
tion having evidently set In which Is to
sweep away all legislation for the benefit
Of class interests, Even several Of the
Massachusetts members thought It necessa-
ry to publicly. wash their hands Of this
abominable BILL Nee York World. 4,

There is no pretense that Congress pos

eress power, by appropriate legislation, to

nance of '87, from which the Amendment

Contradictory War News.

The latest arrival from Europe brings
contradictory war news. Both Austrians
and Prussians claim the victory on the same
battlefield. 1t appears, however, that the
Austrians were defeated on the 9th and
18th near Sachod, by the first army corps,
and on the 29th at Trantenan, by the corps
of Life Guards, and at Munchingantz by
Prince FREDERICK CHARLES. 1t is stated
that at TranteDan the Austrians lost 5000
to 1000 killed and wounded, and the Prus-
SLAMS about 1000. At Munchingantz the
Austrians are reported to have lost 1000 !;
and that the Prussians captured about
5000 prisoners, munitions, trophies, guns,
&c. In consequence there was great re-
ioicing In Berlin.

nAt first glance, the resignation Of POST
fAaster General DENNIsoN may not appear
0f much importance; but upon reflection
it win wear an altogether difIetent aspect.
While holding his position in the Cabinet
Mr.. DENEisoN played into the hands Of the
Radicals. He encouraged the Postmasters
throughout the country to do likewise.
And they did. This they can do no longer
ana retain their places. They are happy
and comfortable in their places. Now,
think you, will they do work that
will insure Shsir decapitatiOn? Not II
they know themselves. In this view Of the
case the resignation Of Postmaster General
DEnNrsoh is q matter, politically, Of first
