Chicago n IlcIlchtfnI Plnce.

Chicago is a Republican city, and i;
ruled by Republican officials. The Chicago
Republican (RadicaD recently INDUCED in
some severe structures against the police oi
that city, whereupon the police denied its
reporters the customary information in re-
gard to police news; and as an Offset, the
Republican presents this picture of the con-
dition of affairs in that city:
"Night after night, burglaries are CON-
mitted. On gaslight thor0ughfares and in
gloomy alleys men are robbed and murder
ed. Day after day we hear of people who
come to this city, and who never appear
again, unless their gnastly corses are drag
ged from river or from lake. But where
are the arrests to match? Where is the
retribution that is due to crime? Do bur-
glars, murderers and policemen harmonic?
Do the latter receive the price of blood
Do the Deputy Superintendent and his
policemen desire that that information
should be withheld?
That such a lamentable state Of affairs
should exist in Republican city is amaz-
ing, or rather should be amazing, consid-
cred in connection with the vaunted claim
Of the Republican party that their party
embraces all the efficiency and purity in
the country.

so Won Wore Told.

The Chicago Post (RadicaD of the 4'h
has made discovery. 1t is important,
though nothing new to Democrats and
Conservatives. Says the Post: "'Ihe peo-
pie are burthened with more taxes than
they can pay. The industry of the coun ry
Is stifled, the resources from which alone
the payment of the National debt is to be
expected are permanently diminished and
crippled"
When such confessions are voluntarily
made by the Republican press, you may
accept the belief, without further ques-
tioning, that the taxation under which the
people are grooming is excessive beyond
computation. 1t stands to reason, then,
that the people need relief or "the industry
of the country" can not be released from
the "stfled" condition, which is playing
the very deuce with it. Look over the
proceedings of Congress and see whether
you can find any measure either introduced
or passed, that is in any way possible cal
culated to lessen the taxes, which are now
more than our people can payp You'll
about rs quickly find needle dropped into
haystack as discover any such legislation.
Abundance of legislation increasing the
taxes you can easily find.

Hem for Radicals.

The Neu York Tribune, which has the
good sense to differ with its party In some
things, speaking OF salaries, says:
"The business of 1866 has not, on the
whole, resulted tavorably. Very many
who paid large income tax on the busi-
ness of 1865, will pay much smaller, or
none, on that of 1866; and the prospect is
not good for 1867. Almost everyone looks
for hard times ahead; and this apprehension
is doubtless we'll founded.
ave insist, then, that while incomes of
taxpayers have generally shrunk, and are
still shrinking, 1t will not do to increase
the current demands upon them of the tax
consumers. The camel's back will break II
you keep piling on. Our Legislators must
sternly resist importunity-cut down ex-
penses wherever they can, and increase
then uowhere-till we shall have returned
to specie payments, natural prices, and a
healthfUl and solid, if moderate prosperity
"If Congress would only give us Re-
sumption, no one could reasonably COM
plain of his present compensation; but,
while we still founder in Suspension, every
lie will consider his pay too little. He feels
that 1t does not buy him the comforts he once
had; the clerk who had $1,000 per annum
and now has $1,000, knows that his COM
pensation is not higher, but lower than it
was. OF course, if he still gets but $1,000,
it is far lower"

The telegraph yesterday gave us what
purp0rts to be Il complete synopsis of the
new scheme of reconstruction agreed upon
by tue President and the "SOutheTners in
Washington" According to this account
the scheme is simply the pending amend
ment without the third section, but with
supplementary provision that each State
shall adopt qualified negro suffrage. In
| other words the scheme Is the p nding
amendment modified in ohly two particu-
lars, one OF which, the omission of the pro-
scriptive section, Is designed to win over
the Southern leaders, and the other, the re-
| quirement of negro suffrage Is designed to
appease the Radicals, neither of which,
however, diminishes in the least the funda-
mental objection to the amendment as q
measure that dictates to the South cOndi-
ti0ns of admission to her plain rights un-
der the Constitution. The notifications
leave the amendment as hostile to the
rights of the States as 1t was before
the only favorable difference relates to cer-
tain individuals Of the States, who, under
the amendmenJ as modified, would be
eligible to Office. This Is well, so far as 1t
goes, but 1t does not go far enough to meet
the demands of an enlightened sense of
self-respect and of sef-preservation,
though very likely the individuals con-
cernpd, or many of them, will be ready to
| say 1t does, for the smell of the flesh-pots IS
a'seductive odor. Its assumed seductive
ness to the Southern leaders is clearly the
main dependence of the projectors OF this
new scheme, which, accordingly, is an
especial insult to the Southern leaders, as
well as an outrage upon the rights of the
Southern States. We shall see how those
leaders will brook the insult. We shall see
whether or not they will tamely pocket it,
and unblushngly barter for the spoils Of
Office, the rights and honor of the States.
Another remark is suggested by this
scheme as now given to the public. Not
only do the notifications leave the amend
ment as Objectionable as ever on the score
of principle, but one of them renders the
amendment inconsistent with itself. The
scheme, it will be noticed, retains the sec
tiOn of the amendment excluding from the
basis OF representation all who are eX
cluded from the right of suffrage on account
of race or color, while adding provision
requiring the States to exclude nobody on
account of race or color. The former part
of the scheme permits conditionally what
the latter prohibits absolutely. The scheme
appears to be tumble. We hope it will
speedily receive its quietus. Louisville

Southern Rebels.

How long are Southern people to be
called "Rebels" after they have given un-
questionable assurance that they will do
their duty faithfully in and to the Union
A Radical journal, in aluding to the cir
cumstance that Southern men and the
President were in consultation over a
measure that they thought would or
| should facilitate reconstruction, flies into
rage about it, and characterizes it as "the
impropriety OF the successor of ABRAHAM
LINCOLN caucusing with Southern Reb-
els" Is the President to have no inter-
course with the Southern Whites-is he
not to be permitted to confer with them
as to what they are willing to do in addi-
tion to what they have already done to
hasten reconstruction, and thereby put
prosperity speedily afoot? We are told
that such intercourse is improper in 'the
successor of ABRAHAM LINCOLN" Why is
it improper? When Republican journals
quote ABRAHAM LINCOLN by way of dis
couraging such intercourse, they should
allow their memories to carry them back at
least few years. Do they not recOllect
that before the termination of the War,
ABRAHAM LINCOLN, then President of the
United States, went TO Fortress Monroe for
the purpose of holding, and did hold, a con-
ference in the vicinity thereof with ALEX
AMBER II. STEPHENS, the then Vice Presi-
dent of the Southern Confederacy, as to the
terms on which the War could be brought
to a close? Do they not recollect that
throughout the country, the assassination
of President LINCOLN was deplored, to a
very considerable extent, because the
South had lost her best friend-that he was
inclined to be especially yielding-that
but night or two before his assassination
he made brief speech, wherein he stated
that he was considering whether further
assurances were not necessary to be given
to the South that would reconcile her peo-
pie to duty and to the Union? To be the
successor, therefore, of ABRAHAM LINCOLN,
in fact as we'll as in name, it is necessary to
cultivate friendly feeling with the South
ern people.

Word comes to MS every day or two that
never were there more persons out of en-
plOyment in our city than at present. And
yet a Republican Congress and Republi-
can Legislature vote increase of salaries,
as though there is in every department of
labor and business healthy and driving
prosperity, and as though the taxes of the
people are as lightas zephyr, instead of as
heavy as mill stone. These Legislators
seem to think that the higher they pile the
taxes upon our people, the happier the peo-
pie will be. They certainly will be made
feel that they have Government.

NOfn Rif OfII

The NeD York EUentng Post expresses
the opinion that if the South were to sig
nifty to Congress their readiness to give
universal suffrage in exchange for general
amnesty, that Congress would clinch the
bargain at once, and open the doors of Con-
gress to Southern Senators and representa-
tives. We don't think Congress would do
any such thing, for were the South volunta-
rily to come forward with such PROPOSE
tiOn, the Republican leaders would affect to
believe that it contained snare that would
be the death of them. They look with dis
trust upon anything and everything that
finds favor in Southern eyes.
