in their districts, and having otherwise carried
out the law under which they have been acting
for the best good of the loval voters within thelr

that unless the proceedings already had are neu-
tralized, the white and black loyalists, whose
pames have already been recorded upon the reg
listers, will be in the majority in those States he
seeks to make possible the extension of the time
allowed for the registration in order that such
District Commanders as he will select may afford
greater conveniences to the Conservatives"

Johnson is madman. A Compress which has
gone 80 far as to deprive the Executive Office of
its dignity. and prune it of its largest conse-

The President is held in straipht-acket nv tho

still kicks at what he cannot destroy with his
hands, and tries to mutilate what he carno,
break down. Congress must proceed to his i'm
peachment. His destruction must be accom-
plished in order to compel the submission of the
dislnyal elements which he leads. He has al
ready been disgraced, and stands befors the
world humiliated and despsed. To all inteuts

Fer Irishmtn to Read.

A loyal paper, styled the Irish Republic, has
been established in Chicago, says the San Fran
cisco Times, and although it has only reached its
eleventh or twelfth number, its circulation is
said to be immense. 1t is conducted By Irish
men, and is eloquently devoted to the cause of
Irish and American freedom. The following ex-
tract from an able article addressed to Irish and
Americans, will furnish an idea of its general
tone and temper. We ask that our Irish citizens
may read and ponder well its facts:
Some of our people are rebels for the sake OF
rebellion. The disease has been so long In the
blood that it has become chronic. We verify
believe that If some of our countrymen, ana
some of the leading ones at that, were in Heaven
at the time of the great rebellion, they would
have unhesitatingly sided with Satan himself.
Anything in opposition to established authority.
1t was this very spirit that drove so many OF our
countrymen into the Confederate army during
the recent war, and made so many living under
the stars and stripes, sympathize with the rebels.
Now this was all wrong; but it was mistaken
sense of right that drove our people to such
course.
Rebellion is only justi6able against tyranny
When people become oppressed TO that degree
that liberty and happiness have been wrenched
from them, and whips and chains substituted,
then does rebellion become duty. But while
rebellion against tyranny is holy, rebellion
against liberty is the unholy work OF the foulest
fends.
Why, then, will so many of our countrymen
persist 10 tracing analogies between Ireland and
the South? Why will they persist to Say to US :
You ant freedom for Ireland hut won't let the
South do what she likes? What Can you do
against the British Government, when the South
with all her facilities for successful rebellion
was put down? With these and like questions
we met at every corner.
We say, once more, that we do not allow the
cause of Ireland to be compared to the cause of
the South. The one is the cause of liberty, the
other the cause of slavery. Ireland is a separate
and distinct nation. The seal of independence
is as plainly set upon her face by the hand of
God as on that of England, France Her
people are distinct nation, separated by blood
and history, by likes and dislikes, from the Eng
lish people, Ireland has had her Government
for centuries when the Briton was painted saw
age, England took possession and holds it to
this day by fraud. The people of Ireland have
never acknowledged the authority of England
They have protested for seven hundred years, by
words and blows against England's usuipations
And greatest of all, the interests of the two
ddates are Numerically opposed. England
u fattens on our decay" What causes could the
South show for rebellion, such those of Ire
land

THE NEXT PKESIDENT.-Therc can be but little
doubt that General Grant is looking toward the
Presidential chair, when the present cumber
some and accidental occupant shall subside into
obscurity. His temporary acceptance OF Stan
tons portfolio has leaning that way, besides
his chance for a nomination by the ne\t National
Republican Convention is being pretty generally
discussed by the Eastern press. The General is
becoming less reticcnt in the expression of his
opinions on national questions. Before the Ju-
dietary Committee of the House of Representa-
tiyes. whittier he was summoned at the instigl-
tion of the Democratic members of the Commit
tee. in the hope that they could draw him out in
favor of Johnsons policy of Reconstruction, the
Generals testimony, it appears. was far from be-
ing satisfactory to the gentlemen by whom he
was called. He stated that lie had always un-
derstood the Presidents work in the South as of
Temporary character. and at most as but an
aid TO Congress in setting up the civil Govern
ments; that he had not sympathized with the
President in his conflict with Congress; that he
thought the fixing of terms OF reconstruction
was matter belonging to Congress; that IN his
Judgment the South made Il grave mistake IN not
long ago heartily accepting the terms offered,
and that he stood firm by the Congressional
plan.
That is surely the right kind of talk. General
Grant doubtless comprehends the necessity OF
placing himself squarey on the Republican plat
FORM for in no other way can he reasonably eX-
pect to obtain the nomination by the National
Convention The time is past when men OF un-
certain political opinions can receive the en-
dorsement of the Republican party. Past mill
tary services will not weigh feather in any
man IS favor, whose head and heart are not sound
to-day. -,
We never admired Grants conduct in that
lannon's pilgrimage Of Andy Johnson's to the
grave of Douglas. 1t was political tour, or
ranized and carried out for the purpose of crea-
ting sympathy among the people of His Acct
dency's foolish attempt to override Congress:
Everywhere the people were eager for word
vet the General received their earnest calls with
silent and sometimes disrespectful indifference.
But, it may be, that, as strict military man. de-
ference to the Commander-n-Cbief sealed his
lips. We will accept this explanation OF ms re-
r,,rk.hIe reticence: but henceforth we shall ex-
meet. if he would succeed politically, that ne
will express himself more freely on national Is
sues-San Jose Mercury.

Our ExcHANGEs.-.We have over seventy
daily papers upon our list OF exchanges
and we know not how many trl-weekly,
semi-weekly, and weekly papers. vi
course it is simply impossible for us toread
any moro. We make this statement in
justification of our refusal to exchange
with the innumerable papers marked
/" Please X +" which every day in the week
reach our table. One Baltimore evening
daily varies its request. After requesting
us score Of times TO exchange if still
alive" it wound up with "What's the
matter, gone up?" These requests for an
exchange come mainly from country papers
published in the States south and south
west Of us, and would therefore be granted
if we could grant them without subjecting
ourselves to too great cost. The most
liberal offer VIC can afford to make is to
furnish the Daily Dispatch to any editor
who needs it for three dollars per annum-
half price.

Taxing the Bonds.

II Is said that letters have been sent to
congressman by the moneyed men of New
York city strongly protesting against tue
adoption of Mr.. SHERMAN's proposition 70
issue new loan which shall 90 ta&aolo'
It is written in the book OF tate ei1ner
that the present bonds must DC taxed or
Others he issued in their stead which shall
he taxable. That point we regard as set
tied. Mr.. SHERMAN proposes to hunlbug
the public by calling for taxable ioan
IF he would tax the bonds aS they stand,
the country would get the benefit Of
the tax. But to issue bonds with the
stipulation that they shall be taxed
is but to spread the net in sight of the
game. The equivalent Of the tax will be
deducted from every bid, and the Govern
ment will get Just as much money for its
six per cent. bonds as without such stipu-
lation it would got for five per cent. bonds.
Nevertheless, it is wisely calculated that
the voters will not perceive the trick. The
States which own no bonds are to be forti-
fed against tendency towards repudia-
tion by being made the recipients of a
share Of this tax. Surprising the tax to
yield twenty millions Of dollars, ten mil
lions will be divided among the several
States, every State receiving something
like hundred thousand dollars per an
mum for each Of her congressional districts.
Once get this scheme into operation, and
it will be hard to get up Reputation
party. The States not owning the bonds
will have an interest in the bonds which
will make them as 10th to repudiate as the
bondholding States themselves. We really
think Mr.. SHERMAN ought to receive
thanks rather than protests from Wall
street.

A New FORM OF SLAvERY.-General
ORD declares that next year he will re-
quire the negroes in his district to work,
even if they have to work for bare sub
sistence. What is this but declaration
that he intends to establish slavery in a
new form? What will GRERLEY, and SUM-
NER, and STEVENS, and PHILLIPS, say upon
this new question? General ORD has be-
come the master Of all the emancipated
slaves, and makes it known in advance
that he intends to compel them to labor
next year. What is the difference, either
in principle or in fact, between this new
kind of slavery and that formerly exist
ing? Has General ORD the power to en-
force his order? OF course he has. He
has, too, as much legal right to do it as
Congress had to upset all the governments
of the seeded States and establish in
their stead five military relationships.

Mr.. KELLEY is right. The cotton facto-
ries of this country ought to be, not in
New England, but on streams which flow
through cotton-fields. Then would the cost
of transportation on the raw material be
saved to the planter, and his fabrics be
made SO much cheaper that he might
surely compete in the markets Of the
world with England, which transports
her cotton such immense distances. This
is the scheme that will make the cotton
planter once more master Of the situation.
We give Mr.. KELLEY credit for speaking
out in its favor.

Italy.

The news from France and Italy is in
teresting. The defeat Of the old ministry
in Italy and the report that new one is
to be formed hostile to France, coupled
with the announcement that France is
considering the propriety Of withdrawing
her remaining troops from Ciyita Vecchia,
show that the King and people of Italy are
not far behind GARIBALpI in their march
towards Rome. 1t was evident all the
while either that VICTOR EMMANUEL was
encouraging GARABALDI, or that the latter
was mere land-pirate. Italy doubtless
earnestly desires 10 secure Rome for her
capital. Her King, however, is bound by
treaty with France to preserve the tempo
raj power Of the Pope. The Emperor Of
France has hitherto insisted upon the OBJ
servance of this treaty upon the part of
Victor EMMANUEL. But it the King &C
cepts the services of a ministry avowedly
"hostile to France (Which phrase means
"hostile to the French policy of preserv-
ing to the Pope his temporal power"-
he thereby declares that the public opin-
ion of Italy is opposed to the observance
Of this treaty, and that he will dis
regard its stipulations. But what
will NAPOLEON do? Cclu depend. There
is BISMARCK in the way. BISMARCK neu-
trail, the Emperor of France would not
hesitate long to lay down his ultimatum.
But BISMARCK keeps his own counsel, and
nobody knows whether he will help Victor
EMMANUEL or not. SO that NAPOLEON
must feel no little concern as to his next
step. 1t is delicate quarrel as it stands,
and may result in any one of several ways.
The Pope meanwhile, being as helpless as
the feeblest power in the world, must look
on in. silence and accept whatever terms
are made for him by the rulers who have
taken his case in hand.
