MISTAKE IN THE CALCULATION.-The
following paragraph from the New York
Times puts forth the same view Of the
dilemma of the Radical party in Congress
which was presented in an article in this
paper on yesterday:
"Mr. Stevens, and those who act with
him, rely with confidence on the support
of the ten southern States in which negro
supremacy is looked for through the help OF
the negro vote but the error in this calcu-
lation lies in the fact that the measures by
which they seek to secure that vote will
lose them the support of every consider
able northern State. The people demand
greater moderation; less ultralsm a
broader and more comprehensive regard
to the welfare of the whole country, than
these partisan maneuvres imply"

THAD. STEvENs.-This is one of the
strangest men of the age. With more
than one foot in the grave, his malignities
are not one whit abated. He is as deeply
interested and as busy with his plots of
ultra and intolerant Radicalism as ever.
He advertises his rolling mills for sale, but
hangs on to impeachment with as much
tenacity as old age and infrmity cling to
him. With him the ruling passion will be
most assuredly strong in death. If he con
get into the Hall of Congress he may be
kept alive by excitement during the ses-
sion: but if his intirmities debar him the
delight of hectoring over the Radicals and
whipping up their courage to the sticking
point" he will die of disappointment and
rage. If we could be vindictive towards
a man whose malignities are never-dying
torment to himself, we would wish that
THAD. STEVENS might live, to witness the
humiliation of the Radical party-an event
that is inevitable.

ToRToLA.-The terrible story of Tor
tola-its being submerged, although good
part of it rises 1920 feet above the ocean,
and good part Of it at that; and the de-
struction by drowning, &C., Of 10000 of
its inhabitants-turn out, as we anticipa-
ted, story almost entirely, made up of
exaggeration. The island shared with
others Of the West Indies in the destruc-
tive effects of the great storm. Some
damage was done to property, and some
lew persons were drowned. a great fire,
however, which ragged during the storm,
oio considerable damage. The story has
served to inform the present generation
that there is such place as Torto!a-a
TACT few were aware of. Indeed, the
American nation is not unlike the Chi
nese-being completely absorbed in its
own concerns and Importance, and knowing
not great deal, and less and less yearly.

The COTTON TAx.-Mr. Speaker COL
FAX has written letter to Mr.. SHORTER,
Of Alabama, once member Of Congress,
in which he states that he believes 9: the
cotton tax will be, and ought to be, re-
pealed." Mr.. COLFAx confesses that the
tax has been more burthensome than he
anticipated when it was imposed. He fur
Their urges its repeal on the ground that
other agricultural productions are not
taxed (he forgot tobacco-another south
ern staplel, while cotton is valuable as
Gan equalizer of exchanges" and is an
article Of prime necessity to "many mil
lions" Now, these last-named reasons
should have been as effective when the
tax was imposed as they are now. They
were, indeed, presented with great force
at the time of the imposition of the tax,
and were not at all respected by Mr.. COL
FAX and his party. What opens their eyes
so clearly to them at this time? Matters
are getting little squally at the North,
and they are DESTROYS of Strengthening
themselves in the South, where the lately
enfranchised are complaining of this tax.
The tax was imposed to punish the whites
of the South, by making them bear heavier
burthens than the northern people. 1t
will be repealed in part, to propitiate the
commercial and manufacturing interests OF
the North, but in great degree to silence
the complaints of the freedmen of the
Gulf States. Mr.. CoLFAx and his CO.
laborers in mischief can be Influenced to
no change of policy from any sense of JUS
tice to the'white men of the South, whose
interests have been brought to almost
hopeless ruin by their INSCRIPTIONS ambi-
ton and vindictiveness.

THE QUESTION THE RADICALS HAVE

THE QUESTION THE RADICALS HAVE TO
DEc!DE.-The New York Times says that
ga most strenuous and determined effort
twill be made to make Radicalism
" the cornerstone of that policy-[the pc
"licy and temper of the last Congress]-to
"base it upon the absolute political and
"social equality Of the black and aohite
"races IN every State and throughout
"the Uaion-an equality to be asserted
Gas national principle, and maintained
"by the national authority and power"
The Times says those who are not pre-
pared to agree to this principle must pre-
pare to opposeit with courage. 1t adds that
the recent elections prove that the "people
"of the United States are not prepared TO
"accept this as national principle"
Very true.

FRANCE AND PRussIA.-NAPoLEoN, IN MS
speech to the Chambers just convened
formally abandons all opposition to the
consolidation of Germany. This removes
one of the causes of, apprehension for the
peace Of Europe. But, then, does not.the
consolidation itself pave the way to other
disturbing causes? The building up Of q
great Power on the Continent like that OF
this united Germany, which may attempt
to dictate policies, will probably more serl-
ously disturb the balance Of power in time
to come than the plots of NAPOLEON to
prevent it.

- This Is written with no nnkfnd feeling
to Mr.. DICKENS. HIS Misrepresentation
about matters here grew out of vein
Of dogmatical fanaticism in his charac-
ter which shows screw loose, and which
sometimes warps his judgment and causes
him. to sacrifice truth to the interests of
party, or the malignity Of prejudice. 1t
is, perhaps, expecting too much Of him
that he should be free from the impulses
that may be abused by the excitements
and agitations of his day and time. Authors
of fiction are seldom destitute Of crotchets
and eccentricities, and are not often re-
markable for. clear judgments and just
perceptions.
