From five to seven thousand men
have now been out of employment
since the first of January, losing
wages to the amount of three millions
of dollars. Admit the goods which
might have been produced to be worth
as much more, and the clear loss to
Che community has been six millions.
Rather dear. that, for the whistle
No argument can show the folly of
that obstinacy between masters and
men, which leads to strikes more
forcibly than these simple figures.

He denounced Mr.. Lincoln, Douglas

In New Mexico. according to a re.

In New Mexico, according to a re-
cent statistical report, there is de-
plorable lack of education, inasmuch
as, out of population of 63,516 per-
sons in that Territory, 81, 233 are una
BILE to read or write. The report fur
Their says that 4" to- day there is not a
single free school for the education of
a single poor child within the broad
expanse of the Territory" The
population of New Mexico, it should
be remembered, consists principally
of Indians, half breeds, Mexicans,
poor whites from the Southern
States, and vagabond adventures
from other places. The schoolmaster
is evidently much needed there, but
it is doubtful if he would be welcom-
ed by majority of the inhabitants.

the 5th OF July, 1865, when the Executive
approved OF the sentences of the assassina-
tion conspirators was written out by Judge
Holt and signed by the President.
1t is stated that the proposition to place

We are sorry to learn that JESSE
denounced Mr.. JOHNSON. 1t seems
to us that was a mistake at this crisis
in national affairs. He ought, by all
means, to have waited until he saw
what disposition the President made
of Secretary STANTON and General
SHERIDAN. If he removes those
officials JEssE's denunciations will
have been as premature as his recon-
mendation of the inventor of inn
proved fire. arms. It will be hard to
convince the Kentuekians that the.
President isn't all right if he removes
these two troublesome fellows. JESSE
is also opposed to paying the public
debt. No doubt of it. We dare say
he is equally opposed to paying his
own, and would not unless the laws
compelled him to de so. Worse yet,
JESSE is in favor of the South re-
gaining her rights by the sword. We
were under the impression that the
sword policy had been tried effectu-
ally, and was found to work badly.
We never heard that JESSE did
much in the sword line. He
kept danger at a pretty eff
fectuaI distance during the war,
and we regarded him as d peace
man. We hope JESSE will attempt to
carry out his suggestion of making
the State of Kentucky pay the own
ers of slaves for every negro they lost
during the war, or by the war, and
look to the General Government to
have the money refunded. Such a
policy carried out faithfully will do
much towards building up healthy
Republican sentiment. in that Cop
perhead afflicted State. Let the poor
people understand that they are to be
oppressively taxed to pay rich men
for the slaves liberated by the war,
and there will be political upheav-
ing in Kentucky to which all past
commissions is mere bagatelle.
We hope JESSE will carry out his
programme to the letter, and that the
newly elected Legislature will be
foolish enough to approve it and
make it the law of the State The
remedy would be severe one, but
extreme remedies are necessary
where the condition of the patient is
so hopeless a.u-.

tions of public interest will prevail

Considerations of public interest"

accept Mr.. SFANToN's resignation, if
rendered. While thus employed in
influencing Mr.. JOHNSON, these same
considerations have been prevail
ing on Mr.. STANTON to pay no atten-
ton to the President, but hold on to
his office until Congress meets.
Seriously, Mr.. STANTON has been
urged by Republicans to- retain his
place. They think it necessary that
some check should be applied to the
President, and they can devise moth
ing so efficacious as the presence of
Secretary STANTON in the Cabinet.
With that gentleman in the Cabinet,
and Gen. GRANT at the head of the
army, we don't think the President
