ways and means of official prostitution and
public robbery are fewer than they were-by
all means let us amend it radically. we must
take earnest care that those who are chosen
to amend it are delegates pledged to
sweep away all color of authority for the ex-
isting misgovernment. The Republican ticket
offers such men. Its rival puts forward few
able candidates, Uut far greater number Of
those who are little better than personal bene-
fcialics Of public wrongs These men must be
defeated, if possible; and ont of their defeat
must be made the tissue which is to form our
new charter.
New-York tribune., 1867-04-23

The elections which have thus far been held
in the present year clearly show that we need
not fear any great detection of Republican
votes The few dozen OF hundred anti-I Tenn
perance votes of Republicans, which will be
cast in cities like New-York Buffalo, and Al
bany, may swell in some places the Democratic
majority, but will hardly be able to change
the result of the election in any district. Inc
great point to-day is to bring out the full vote
of our party. There are several closey-con-
tested districts in this State. They will be
won or lost as our friends fulfill or neglect
their dutY

We earnestly look to see all degradation re-
moved from white manhood in this State by
the abolition of the legal distinction on account
of color. Less than this progressive and lib
eral Convention cannot fail TO do. A Demo

meet to conserve some Of the worst of the ex.
isting mockeries and mischiefs The honest
masses must resolve that something better than
this shall be done. The deed must begin 10.

An act of our late Legislature requires Gov.
FentOn to designate one of the four Judges of
our Supreme Court (First or City DiStricD to
sit regularly i'll Chambers, instead of the rota-
tion hitherto observed Certain OF our journals
assume that this appointment was intended for
Judge Barnard, and thereupOn assail him as
unworthy. We submit that these attacks are
misiudged, and can only operate as an embar-
rassment to the Governor. If any one knows
facts which render the designation of one of
our Judges improper, let him communicate
those facts, duly authenticated, to the Cover
nor by whom they will be carefully cOnsd-
cred, with an anxious desire to make the best
possible selection. Vague newspaper charges
against any one Of O,u Judges are calculated
to render the invidious duty most distasteful,
by raising the presumption, in case the assalled
Judge should not bc appointed, that the Gov
ernor believed his assailants, and rejected him
accordingly.
TO Judge Barnard this City is indebted for
many bold and safutary exercise OF Judicial
power. His veto of the gigantic Gas swindle
his order opening the. Street Commissioners
books for inspection and scrutiny his checks to
the encroachmcnts of the Street Railroads; his
affinmancc of the cOnstitutionality of the Health
Commission, and the locally unpopular Excise
act, are still freshly remembered. If there be
reasons for designating another Judge to sit in
chambers under the new act, let them be duly
presented but Judge Barnards services to the
cause of Order, Morality, and Public Health,
should shield him from unjust reproach.

No fault is found with the character of the
ticket presented by the Republicans of the
State. Our nominees are admitted to be supe-
rior in reputation, Judgment, learning, and
probty to their opponents. We do not sup
pose that such ticket can fall short of sue
cess; but we are solicitous that the extent of
this success shall reach the furthest limit 1t
is demanded of every voter that he shall this
dav do his duty.

The ticket led by Mr.. Beecher is so excellent
of itself that the voters of the lid District

Gated, will do his utmost to give this ticket
the superb majority it deserves.

To the men who are now so bravely battling
for the organization of Republican party in

possible vote for the Republican ticket.

Universal Suffrage is the watchword of tho

If you desire that New-YOrk shall not remain

the verdict of the world in the suffrage ques.
ton; but in the Northern States Democratic
almost without exception continue to be the
headstrong opponents of progress.

No Backing Down from Negro
Suffrage and Negro Equality.

The Radical central organ, at Columbus,
Ohio--the Journal denies Indignantly thar
negro suffrage has been abandoned. publicly
or privately, as an issue of the present cam
paign. Let it then be 80 understood that
Hayes & Co., fight the battle for and in be-
halt of negro suffrage, and negro equality
that follows negro suffrage, on the line they
command With that issue, they mean to
win or be defeated We are rejoieed that
the issue is so distinctly and boldly affirmed
Ne can now understaRd why the Radical
candidate for Lieutenant>governor
Lee--declared, in his recent speaking tour
through the State, thatthe seven thousand
five hundred negro men of tWenty.one years
of age, in Ohio. were "better qualified, by
reason of intelligence, to vote than are
1900 white men in different parts of the
State, many times told; and Why he should
have declared, as he did at Pomeroy, that
if white children did not like to associate
with negro children in the public schools.
they could leave them and have schools of
their own.
And we can also understand why the
great Radical leader, Ben Wade, should
declare, as he did in his speech at Marietta,
that foreigners, even after having been in
the country long enough to become voters,
.'Knov no more than the horse they drTrc "
and that the negroes are "ihfattely dbore
then, in all that intelligence that qualities
men to eoks. "
It is necessary to give piquancy to the ne
gro suffrage issue, and to keep it from fall
ing out of sight, that the negroes should be
held up as superior beings to the whites, and
especially as the superiors infinitely in
intelligence .to. the Germans and lrsh,
English and Welsh, that are permitted to

The President OF q BIack-and-
tan Loyal League On General
Grant and the Dutch and Irish.

The Mayor of Mobile, Alabama, is an
appointee of q military commander, who
deposed the Mayor elected 10y the people,
and put in his place the present incumbent,
Gustavus Horton. Besides being the May.
of Mobile, Mr. Horton is also President Of
the Loyal League at that place. At a
meeting of the League, on the evening of
the 9th inst, he made a speech that will
attract some attention. He denounced
General Grant as a military puppet, and
told the negroes that he was not the liEera
tor of their race-that he had them butch
cred on every occasion to spare his Dutch
and Irish hirelings, " and that, as he can
not get their votes, he turns to those "mer-
cenaries" for support. He then proceeded
to utter threats that the negroes will raise
against him "a storm which will sweep him
and his allies from the field quicker than did
the rebels at Shiloh" He next advised
the blacks to look to their arms, and be
ready to defend their freedom. This is the
language he used:
"We have at last reached the time when
nur Leagues will be able to do oetive service
for the good cause. The arch traitor,
johnson, and his military puppet, Grant,
have corspired to rob this revolution of its
legitimate fruits, and undo the great work
of President Lincoln, but they are mistak-
en-; General Grant is not the liberator of
your race; he had it butchsrtd on every oc-
cason to spare his Dutch and Irish hire
lings and knowing he can not get your
votes, he turns to those mercenaries for
support. >,
''He will, however, soon find that the
colored citizens, led by faithful and devoted
friends, will raise against him storm which
will sweep him and his allies from the field
quicker than did the rebels at Shiloh. -
But you must be prepared; look to your
arms, and be ready to defend with your best
hearts blood the freedom you have SO val.

Since the combination Of the Puritan
and the negro to rule the county, it is res
markahe with what unanimity the Clutch
and irish are spoken Of with marked dis
respect. not only by R2dcal leaders i'll the
States North, as well as by the negro lead
ers in the Southern States. They must
think they have things pretty firmly set UP

es to foreign born citizens.

THE NeVy Work Herald Out For
legal Tender.

The New York Rctdld, which has hers
tofore been the most useful laborer in ths
Republican party, is down on the National
Bank Monopoly, in favor Of Legal Tender,
and demands that the Bond holders shall
bear part of the burdens of taxation
This is the way it talks:
The national bank monopoly will have
to 90 under; we shall have to come to a
uniform currency, and that of Government
legal tenders the bondholders will have to
bear part of the burdens of taxation as
other people do; contraction of the curren-
cy must be resisted, and an ample circula.
ton maintained to promote the active in.
dustry of the country, and till large por.
ton of the debt b. paid. The debt should
be paid By currency the same money -
was given for it, and the whole should be
consolidated III one form, with reduced iu-
terest, and be placed in process of regular
liquidation This Is the platform Of the
fa'ure, the one to which the mass of the
people everywhere will rally. Whatever
party adopts it will be the party of the flu
ture, and the political leaders who plaee
,hem elves upon it will be the coming Ineu

that Government compelled persons to take
greenbacks Tor their claims OF gold, he says:
''Ditforort weights and measures, one to

the Lord And he adds, they are,
equally, an abominatlou to men" 1t is
the same with two currencies-thc poorer

ures of value are opposed to equal rights,
and are an abomination, as much so as dit.
ferent weights and measures.

EegrO EOtaNG,

We hear great deal of talk at the pres
ent time about Justice to the negro, dis
unitnists are crying out that the negro is
equal to the white man, and should have
all the rights Of the white race. Now if
this is true. are the profcssed friends of the
ncproin favor of the rightto marry and inte.-
marry the races? Ifnot, why insist that the
negro was created equal to the white man?
If they must be introduced into our body
polite because they are equal, why not in>
troduce them into our domestic and social
relatons2 We are satisfied that is the next
step that JacoSins will take. First, they
insist on his right to be free; second, on
his right to vote; and ,astly they will insist
on his right to meet in the social circle, and
amalgamate with the whites by marriage.
The real aholitionists have advocated this
doctrine Tor years. How long will the peo,
vle be deceivcd2
