The CorpEaHEADs AFTER NEGRO yoTrs.-The
New York World thus piteously beg5 for the ne
gro vote in support of the Copperhead party -
- Democrats in the North as well as the South
should be fully alive TO the importance Of the
new element thrust into the politics Of The coun-
try. 1t is very possible that the next President
ial election may be decided By the negro vote.
We suppose it 70 be morally certain that the new
constitution Of the State OF New York to be
framed this year viii confer the elective fran
chise upon all adult negroes. We estimate their
number at six or seven thousand, which i1 =
close contest, may turn the scale in tie election
next year, should the solid negro vote be cast
for thc Republican candidate. n many of the
Southern States there IS near an approach to
equality between the two races that unless the
negro vote is divided there IS imminent danger
that the political control Of these States will pass
into the hands of the Republican party. We
have no f4ith in the success Of any efforts to
shut the negro element out of politics. j. IS the
part Of wisdom frankly to accept the situation
and get beforehand with the Radicals il gaming
an ascendency over the negro mind.

NEVER BE AN OrFICE-SEEKER.-Thurlo Weed
the veteran journalist and politician, has the fol-
lowing excellent paragraph on olIice-seeking -
1" Parents in moderate circumstances or even in
prosperous business, who refuse neglect to
give their sons trades, doom the most of them to
life Of dependence. A reliance upon clerk
ships, at best, is precariors. Sill more precari-
GUS is the life which many live, Of dependence
upon Office. TijR whether seekers of high or
low office, is the last fate to which a thoughtful
parent should subject son. Bat. generally the
worst thing that can happen to this class is sue
cess. Once " bitten with taste of office, all
legitimate occupations become irhsome. The
man, old or young. who gets into office, and as
an inevitable corollary, get out, is untitled for
other employment for life. 1t is rare, indeed,
that man who has been few years in Office
ever settles, or even cndeayors to settle down to
labor. 1t is painful beyond expression to see
the miserable battalions Of idle men who be-
Lacquer all the public Offices for employment.
And this in a country, Of all others, where labor
is not only in request but IS largely remnaera-
tive, and where land teeming with wealth. in

courses as follows 60 We should like to look in

in yelling copy at him. Wouldn't he start
though? Ten to one he would grab his hat and
hurry after an item. If member should request
him to notice what he saying, he would say
he couldn't notice it short of the usual rates,
one dollar line. 1t would be some time before
he could keep his seat when fire-bell rang. He
would find himself going to the police station of
a morning, and hanging around the court house.
If at any time lobby man should slip roll of
money into his hand, he would whisper, Ger

The End at Last,
From The Nation.

tFOW Hte 4NuLtO1l. ..
We presume the work of reconstruction, so
far as Congress has to do with it, is now over.
This time there is no mistake about the mean
ing of the Reconstruction bill. The military
commanders are fairly installed in possession
of the supreme authority in the districts
assigned to them, and the President is more
powerless than ever he was, for he has fired
the last arrow in his quiver. He has said, it is
true, that he will never willingly execute
the lava speech which threw Mr.. Boutwell,
into state of great excitement, and made him
call more solemnly than ever for impeach-
ment; but then, if Presidents were to be tried
and deposed for not executing laws "will-
ingly," we fear hardly any President would
reach the end of his term because at least one
law is passed in every term which the 'sChief
Magistrate" would rather not enforce. The
mass of the public, we think, will be perfectly
satisfied if he executes the law at all, and has
given up caring greatly what his state of mind
is. His last two communications to Congress,
particularly the one in which he suggests the
possibility of Congress having to assume the
whole debt of the Southern States as the legal
consequence of its interference with the work
of reconstruction, were too foolish to make it
worth anybody's while ever again to
follow the course of his thought with either
interest or anxiety. As long as he seemed a
bold and desperate man. as he undoubtedly
did when he first hegac the game of vitupera-
tion in the spring of 1866, his manner of look
ing at public questions naturally was OF con-
siderable importance. But the course which
Congress has ever since pursued has so cooled
his courage that we really believe him to be at
this moment one of the most inoffensive men
in public life. AS a general rule, when a
President announces that he means ''to take
the Constitution for his guide" as Mr.. John
son has so frequently done of late, he means
that he intends to pursue perfectly harmless
career. The South, too, has by this time given
up depending on him. No doubt there was a
good deal OF mischief done at first by his expo
sition Of his views, but the extent of his powers
is now known to everybody, and whatever
hates or hopes Southern men may cherish,
they certainly have ceased to rely on Andrew
Johnson for the means of gratifying them.

time an unpleasant subject TO a large and re-

IRON me Independent.
1t is very seldom that great reformer.
whether in the intellectual, moral, or mate
rial world, receives his reward in his own day
and generation. Galleo was imprisoned for
the heresy that the earth moves round the
sun, and obliged by the Inquisition to recant
his error. The first inventor of the steam.
engine died in French madhouse to protect
society against man capable of such an insane
deluslon' And the fate of the reformers in
morals and religion marks the whole pathway
OF history with fire and blood. It has been
the singular felicity of our great American
retormer to have lived to see the success of the
reform heset on foot, and to receive in person the
homage OF the worlds gratitude and adj
miration, OF all the remarkable assem-
pings ana festivities Of the present year in
EUROPE, there is none more historically inte-
resting than the breakfast given to William
Lloyd Garrison in St. James Hall. London. on
the 18TH OF June, and there is none that will
be longer remembered. The interposition of
the Atlantic is like the separation of the ocean
stream OF Time, and the testimony borne to
the services OF the famous Abolitionist by that
gatherlng OF notable Englishmen and English
women was like the voice of posteritv Giving
the hnal seal to the fame of great actions.
There was something positively sublime in the
contrast of the poor young printer defying the
American nation to the combat as the cham

United States, England, France, and Holland,

of June, 1866. By that instrument tariff of

upon, and which formed part of the treaty, was
TO regulate the scale of customs imposts for a
period of six years. The charges for permits
of landing were abolished Foreign goods,

General Grant for PRECEDENT.


From The World. ....
On Tuesday evening the Republican Gene
raj Committee of this city nominated General
Grant for President. On the same day the
negro-sufrage Republican State Convention of
New Jersey voted down, by an engulfng
majority, motion offered by one of it's men,
bers making the same nomination. This con-
Trajectory action betokens the contrariety of
feeling which exists in the Republican party
towards General Grant. There seems to be
an expectation by a portion of the press that
the supposed Presidential availability of this
great soldier viii cause both parties to tug as
strenuously for his possession as the Greeks
and IroJans did fer the body of PatrOclus.
Tuesday proceedings at Trenton and in this
city show that there is as yet no unanimity
in the Republican party on this subject, and
there is doubtless quite as little in the Demo
cratic ranks.
Meanwhile General Grant stands passive
and imperturbable, doing nothing to enOou-
rage or discourage either one party or the
other 1t would be mere levity Of character
