g- The N. Y. Tribune, in late
article, fully exposes the misrepresen-
tation of Democratic repudiators,
touching the taxation of Government
bonds The government has in fact
lost nothing by the exemption of
these bonds from taxation. By this
exemption they were enabled to dis
pose of these bonds on much more
favorable terms than they otherwise
would. The article in the Tribune
makes the matter perfectly plain
Let every man read it. r.
But it is simple faulty to suppose
that this liability to taxation will n5t
be understood and considered by the
lender. In other words: it is absurd
to fancy that, if he is to be required
to pay taxes on his bonds he will not
make his bids or his purchases at
corresponding rates. Should the
taxes amount to one per cent. for in
stance, he then will pay no more for
a six per cent bond than he wonlfl
for one of five per cent. that should
be wholly exempt from taxation
Thus subjecting the bonds to taxa
ton would be simply adding twenty
five million dollars per annum to che
interest of our National debt for the
chance of getting Twenty Millions
of it returned to our various general
and local treasures by taxation-
What is the net profit of that opera,
tion2
Need another word be said to ex-
pose the utter baselessness of the
assumption that bond holders are a
favored class? Do you not see that
theSdo pay taxes-caunot help it?-
The loans are offered to all; the ex
emption Tor non exemption) from
taxation is an element of their price;
and he who buys non taxable bond
pays his taxes as truly as othersE
He pays in accepting lower rate of
interest than he would do if his
bonds were subject to taxation. To |
tax his bonds is simply to take |
money out OF one pocket in order to |
put it into auotiier, paying several
commissions and taking several risks
during the process.

XRebel VieWof Reconstruction.
Z eatafs Of Mississippi,
lpeeE ked audiepce
o. and sNlss 81 that State,
iecsatest himself lsA savor of accept
ing the Congressional plan of recon
struction in good faith, and for car
rying it out in all its amplitude, -
The following views of Mr.. Brown
touching the present status of the
black race, as coming from promi-
nent ex-rebel, we commend to the
attention of our neighbor of the Dis
patoh, and other Democratic 'sfos-
sils:"
"To-day you stand equal with the
white people before the law. By
this mean that you have the right to
vote, to hold office, to make contracts, to
bug and sell property, to sac and be sued,
to give evidence in court, and In general
terms to do whdtevsr white man may
rightully DO for your Darn preservation
and political protection"
The ex- Senator, in the following
PLAN words, disposes of the North
ern Democratic ''bugbear," that the
civil and political equality of the
black man includes also his social
equality. We commend his words
to every intelligent and candid man.
"Men make men equal before the
the law; that is, they can confer on
them equal civil and political rights,
but they can not make them of equal
stature, of equal wisdom, or of the
same color. No more can they make
them socially equal. Social eQualityde
pends on agreement The laWs can not
force ii. I am no mans equal, socially,
unLess he agrees to the equality. No
man has right to demand against nay
consent, and this rule IS uniuersal and
aH-prevading among men. Your race
IS no exception to Merale. The honest,
industrious and frugal am ong you do
not admit to social equality the dis
honest, idle and wasteful efvour
own color, nor do white people
Social equality is simply a matter of
private agreement, and is not con-
trolled by any public law. When
-eyer-the-black people desire social
equality, and the white people agree
to yield it, we shall have it, and not
before. 1t takes two to make bar
gain, and l risk nothing in saying
that neither whites nor blacks in the
South want 10 make this bargain now.
1 have but one idea to add. 1t is
this: there will be social equality in
the South between the races quite as
soon as the same thing occurs at the
North; for l happen to know that the
Southern people have much higher
appreciation of the black mans hon
or and character than the Northern
people have"

On accommodation of Gen. Grant,
the order assigning Gen. Thomas to

proposed change were here before
the order was issued, Gen. Thomas
i feeling as Gen. Grant did regarding
the policy of making removals.
-Confdential men have disclosed the
i fact that Mr.. Johnson has hoped that
a peremptory order to Thomas to dis
place Sheridan would lead to the
resignation of Gen. Thomas, and
thus two commanders whom he es-
pecially dislIked might be put out of
the way. Aside from this, it was
known by the President that Gen.
Thomas i'll health would at any rate
render 1t impossible for him to go
South, and the use Of his name, it
was thought, would serve to soften
the order to the minds of the peo-
pie.

There was a noteworthy illustrative
incident on a rail-car out of Springfield
the other day. A big, black but clean
and we'll dressed "colored brother" en-
tered and sat down by one of the, at
least formerly, "ruling race" The
white man looked venom at the black
one, and Kissing out, "Do you suppose
l am going to sit by a - black mig
ger like you--let me get out, squeezed
by into the aisle, and took vacant seat
in front, by the side of small Yale stu
dent lad from Springfield. The latter
looked at the newcomer, and saying,
"Do you suppose l can sit by you, sir7
let me pass out" got up and went back
to the Just vacated seat by the black
man. The party of the first part grew
pale with added feeling, and said: "Do
you prefer to sit by niggerl" 81 prefer
to sit by a gentleman" ''Do you dare
to say am not gentleman?" "a
gentleman never swears at or insults a
man because of his color.v eYou shall
be taken care of, you impudent iacka-
napes." When the black brother, stall
wart and suggestive, spoke in-"I will
take care of him, SIR" There ensued
ga splendid passage of silence" and
the car went on, and there was no as

Hooking County Democracy.

The Democracy of Hooking have eV-
erything their own way. They both
marry and are given in marriage to
''niggers" and nobody says aught
against it. A short time ago dashing
daughter of a lifelong Democrat fell
desperately in love with negro barber.
So violently was her passion for this
fellow, that she went to Logan with the
determination to become his wife accor-
ding to law. Her friends, ascertaiuing
what her intentions were, rallied to the
rescue and, by the most urgent appsals
and entreaties, prevailed upon her to
leave town and not ruin herselfby such
a rash act 1t may be added that she
is one of those many Democratic dam
sells, who during the last campaign were
in the habit of attending Democratic
meetings, carrying huge banners bear
ing the significant words, "Save us from
nigger husbands" ztE
Another instance. They hayea CEN
trail committee in Hooking county, thor
oughly Democratic of course, and a
member of that committee took it into
his head not long ago that he would
get married, He could not find white
woman to suit him, and so he united
himself to a widow lady of whose colour
we will say nothing, but whose parents
were mulsttoes, and whose first husband
had rather dark complexion, woolsy
hair, thick lips and long heels. Surely
