what VIII Consrcs, DO 2

There is much question and discussion as to
what the President will do in view of the
result Of the elections and the assembling Of
Congress, and there are stories Of arming and
disarming Of militia and mastering Of troops,
and other acts Of ptiful msgnincencs on the
part OF the Chief Magistrate. But this Is not
the case for discussion. We know very well
what the President will do. He will do for
once just what he ought to-staud still. Or
II he commits any offence against public pro-
priety 1t will only be Ia message making
some ridiculous Interpretation Of the recent
elections as an expression In support Of his
policy. 1t Is Of far more importance TO the
country to know what will be the course of
the national Legislature. What will Congress
dot Will Congress bear In good faith and be
governed by the declaration Of tho people
that reconstruction on tho nigger supremacy
basis Is not TO their liking Or will 1t refuse to
recognize this voice and rush blindly forward,
regardless Of any result but the realization Of
fanatical idea! Congress may see, II 1t will,
exactly what will suit the nation. II must
be content TO retrace the recent dreadful
strides Of the radical revolutionary spirit and
must clearly and squarely place itself on thas
amendment to the constitution which has been
accepted by the Northern people, whose prin-
ciples arc sound and safe, and promise recon
struction that win be natural and peaceabls
This Is the only course for Congress. II mus

Congress, just a. that Congress wiped out th'
reconstruction Of the President, and. starting

for the Presidency.

MIR. Chase and His Plans and Prospects
for the Presidency.
As the shocking disaster Of the first Bull Run
fell upon the loyal States, SO have the astound-
ing results OF the New York election fallen
upon the radical Chase faction. Mr.. Chase
himself alarm ID ut this fearful catastrophe,
has with the clearing away of the smoke from
the battle field deemed 1t expedient to come
at once to this city for the purpose Of consider
ing the extent Of the damages he has suffered
and the ways and means of repairing them.
He has been here for several days in active.
consultation with his radical friends, and we
think the opinion may be safely ventured that
80 far from giving way in favor of General
Grant, Mr.. Chase is resolved henceeorth to use
all the organized forces and resources at his
command to rule out Grant and to secure for
himself the nomination Of the Republican Ma
tional Convention.
To this end he has bis hundreds Of national
banks and other financial agencies to back him,
In addition to that numerous faction of fanatics
whose ultimatum, sink or swim, is univer-
sal negro suffrage. He has, Too, . powerful
body of retainers in both houses Of Congress,
who will be very apt TO shape the legislative
measures Of the coming session in accordance
with bis wishes. We may thus expect, among
other things in the interest of Mr.. Chase, that
Southern reconstruction, under the existing
laws. win be so actively pushed forward that
all the ten outside rebel States will be reor-
ganizei and restored as negro radical States
some, IL not all, In season for the Republican
Convention but all in time to give their elec-
toral votes to Mr.. Chase.
Against these formidable appliances Of the
republican party machinery the friends Of
General Grant have nothing but his popularity
to depend upon. His popularity Is great; 1t
covers oil the land but unless his jealous
friends can bring this power TO bear upon the
| Republican Convention il will avail them
nothing; for We have no doubt that General
Grant Is so well satisfied with his position as
| Generatin-Chief Of the armies Of the United
States that be will not consent to any Presiden-
| tial nomination but that Of the regular Republi-
can Convention, and will refuse to run against
Mr.. Chase II thus regularly nominated. The
| political friends OF General Grant, then, being
q sort OF unorganized militia, have no other
course left them but vigorous agitation OF
his claims and popularity, in public meetings
all over the country, such as have already been
commenced In Pennsylvania, with every indi
cation Of complete success in an out and out
Grant delegation 70 the Republican Conven-
ton from that State.
Al The contest now stands, however, within
tbs republican lines, Mr. Chase has the odds
heavily on his side for Ne mauipplst0a Of ths

In the HsRALD Of yesterday we printed
telegraphic intelligence and letters from our
special correspondents which prove almost to
. demonstration that the Italian difficulty is
not yet settled. Garibaldi is set aside in the
most effectual manner possible. But Carl
baldi, il is now manifest, was set aside BY o
Power against which, rightly or unrightly, he
thought he had no right to calculate. It was
not the Papal troops, but the soldiers Of France,
that routed the Llberasor. Right was over
powered by might
Considering all the facts Of the case, it was
not unnatural that Victor Emanuel should re-
call his troops from the Roman territory.
Italy was no match for France, and since
France had landed in force on her shores
what could the Italian government do but
yield? The yielding Of the italian govern
which gave life and soul to this recent move
ment had died out It only convinced US that
Italy had yielded to force which she could
not control-nothing more.
The telegraphic news of yesterday morning
did not, therefore, surprise us. We feel only
that the difficulty has been showed aside, not
settled. Insurrec ions, we are told, have taken
place in different parts Of Italy, the towns, in
particular, being rebellious. This s most
natural 1t is only what we had expected. Our
surprise will rather be that this fresh attempt
to crush out popular liberty has not been met
by hearty reJoinder from all the centres Of
liberalism in Europe. Napoleon has unmis-
takably revealed the despot and II liberal
Europe cannot or will not see 1t the fault Ia
not ours, but theirs. Meanwhile, we are not
unwilling to believe that this victory OF des-
potism will mark the commencement OF .
fresh popular effort Let US hope it may result
in q popular triumph

Suspension or tho Rectifying Business.
The Metropolitan Board ofIuternal Revenue,
in their zeal to suppress all frauds in their
department, have adopted rather high-handed
course in seizing on all spirits bought in open
market by the rectifers when the price does
not reach the amount Of the government tax
The consequence il that all the rectifying busi-
ness in New York il completely suspended.
The leading members Of the trade have con-
suited on the matter and have made public
statement of their grievances They say that
they buy the spirits In open market with the
necessary brands on each package, and that
they should not be held responsible for the
failure Of the government officials to collect the
tax from the proper parties. The law refers
only to the producer, and not to the rectiner.
The business of the latter, amounting to some
millions ofdollars annually, has been ensctuslly
destroyed by the course Of the revenue ofdcers-
They express determination Of having the mat
tor brought to an issue and obtaining definite
decision from the department on the question.
An act Of Congress, defining the duties OF tho
government ofacials and the rights OF tho rec
tiders in this particular, would be the best and
most satisfactory measure to remedy the evil
and restore such IN important branch OF
business TO this city.

General Grants Oinious.

Outraged at the unpatriot, partisan, fanat-
ical course the republican prty and its efforts
to prevent the restoration of national bar
nsony, the people have uttefd their indigna-
ton in substantial majores against that
organization wherever its prlciples came be-
fore them; but they have notyet entirely cast
that party aside. 1t is eviden however, that it
now only stands on sufferano. 1t can count
upon no favor except as 1t ma, deserve it from
its future course; while If tpcrsists in the
attempt to force its exploded sstem of recon-
struction-its niger and CORRUPTION policy--it
will by such course make the revolution
complete aud sweeping; it viii compel the
people to take from it the last vestige Of
power There are sope indications that events
must go to that result. Distinguished radical
men and journals declare that he niger shall
still not be given up. The ely organ OF the
radicals says that the nigger reconstruction
laws now in operation are Of class with the
laws Of the Medes and Persins-not to be
changed Western organ says that the radi-
calls must fortify where they .re,,r and Ben
Wade says that he for one will not retire an
inch. All this is likely enough o be only the
blather and bravado of noisy fellows whis-
Ting to keep their courage up; but II It shall
prove to be party policy i! is clear that the
warning is not yet sufficient.
In view Of this position II nov becomes ne
cessary that the people should know the
opinions Of any man likely to become candi-
date for the Presidency, in order to know that
he is positively with them against the ex-
tremists they rcpudiate, II is especially neces-
sary that we should know the opinions of
General Grant more clearly than we do. He
Is now the most prominent candidate before
the nation for the. highest Office in it His
patriotism and honest purposes are well
known his judgment and ability in certain
affairs are unquestioned, and he has shown a
disposition 70 national economy Of the happi-
est promise yet 1t would be well II we had

will be remembered even after the excitement
Of the late heated political canvass It will be

sembling. what effect the late emphatic popular
verdicts on radical policy and radical politi-
clans will have upon the radical majority in the
Convention. What will they do about negro

Ohio, poor bleeding Kansas and their own i'm

demnation upon that mischievous measure
Will they dare 10 introduce it in the new con-

ing backbone enough to "fortify themselves
where they stand that is, on the rsmparts
of nigger supremacy They cannot fail to have
seen, too, that the Congressional plan Of recon-
struction has been signally rebuked How
will this affect their sapient deliberations !?
There are also some other matters which these
radical constitution tinkerers may do we'll to
take oognizance Of Among these are the ar
bitrary Excise law and the rotten and corrupt
patchwork they desire to establish as govern
ment for the metropolis. These schemes have
been sent to the Tomb Of the Capulets and
buried there, with the weight of sixty-one
thousand democratic majority upon the tomb
stone. This Is tho voice Of tho people Of the
city and of the State. We will see how FAR, in
their official capacity, the majority in tie Con-
vention will be governed BY or respect 1t.
