ray Mr.. John L. Hayes, the editor OF
the Savannah (Ga.) Republican, Rad
ical paper, was recently attacked and
severely beaten by two asaassins, brothers
named Hopkins. They entered his office
when he was alone, except that . negro
boy was 10 the house, and first Selling
his hand in friendly way, gained on
advantage, which they followed up with
a succession Of kicks and blows, which
have seriously endangered the life Of Mr..
Hayes, who is now suffering with con-
cusslon of the brain. We are pleased to
see that he has the sympathy OF the
whole community Of Savannah, and that
his scoundrel assailanis are likely to be
severely punished for their cowardly
outrage. To skulk from the face OF an
antagonist, and attack him in The back
in defense Of your honor, is to prove
that you have none above that Of a cat.

report Of the committee will not be ready
for several months.
A special says that several members Of
the Ways and Means and Finance Com
mitiees have been 10 consultation with
| the Secretary Of the Treasury recently
in regard 70 finance matters. Senators
Morgan and Sherman had a long inter
view with him, with view to eliciling
his views on The Sherman measure. The
Secretary has not indicated his ideas on
the subject fully, but is known to favor
that portion of the scheme relative 10
foreign loans In regard to the four
million proposition he has very grave
doubts, and is not at all convinced OF IT'S
advisability at the present time. de IS
understood TO believe that a loan OF that
character would interfere with the banks,
and cause large withdrawal Of their
deposits.
From the conversation Of different
members Of Congress il is inferred that
majority of the House are in favor OF
taxing the bonds, and II may be conhden-
tally stated that a bill looking TO that
object will be introduced after the holi-
days. The proposition meets with general
appreciation, and there is no doubt OF
the passage Of the measure.
A bill will be introduced at an early
day in the House providing that in future
all appointments Of internal revenue
agents shall be confirmed in the Senate
before the nominee enters on the duties
of his office. This is in order to pre-
vent, as far as possible, the appointment
of upprincipled persons to such impor-
tant positions, where there is such
large field for speculation.
The Internal Revenue reports show
gradual daily increase, and the lowest
estimates for the fiscal year do not fall
short of two hundred millions. Thus far
the receipts amount to over 1907 600 600,
and today were about 100000.
A morning paper says that the case
to test the constitutionality of
the reconstruction laws is the case of
Col. Wardle, editor of Natchez paper,
who was arrested under Gen. 0rd's late
orders. Orders received at the War De
partment from the headquarters Of the
Fourth Military District state that Gen.
Ord has ordered board Of arbitration
o be appointed for the protection of
he laborer, who complains that
lis share of the crop is wrong
ully withheld from him, or
when called for by landlord or mer- {
liant, complaining under oath that the !
,lanter had fraudulently assigned to tho
aborer an undue share Of the crop, to .
be injury of the complainant. General b
Ord also gives full instructions for the I
Guidance of such Boards in reaching de-
isions.

Tho Political Splitter Of Differences.

Senator Dooliitle has distinguished
himself, in foolish way, by offering a
proposition TO amend the reconstruction
act, by allowing negroes who have served
year in the Lincoln army, or can read
and write, or have two hundred and fifty
dollars Of property, 10 vote. This is
worthy the sagacity and the manhood o.
those who desire TO be especially called
Conservatives. A set Of brave fellows,
who stoutly swear that they will not eat
mouthful Of the devil, but are willing
to compromise the matter by taking q
few mouthfuls of his broth Senator
Doolittle's proposition surrenders to the
mongrels the logic of the whole contro-
versy If the negro is fit TO vote at all,
BIO is fit TO vote as white men vote. There
are no classes under our system Of civil
society. If the negro is 10 be made a
part of that society at all, be should
come in just as all the other members Of
it do. The men who framed the govern
msnt held the negro TO be an inferior
being, and therefore denied him any
share in the government of the country.
We must either adhere to that system,
or 90 clean over and incorporate him as
an equal part Of the body polite. This |
is the only logical ground. Ii he is an
inferior type of man, who cannot be
amalgamated with the white race with
out deriment TO it, then he should
never be allowed to vote under any

politician Of the Phillips stripe is Con- !
sistent and logical in claiming equal
suffrage for the negro, because he pro-
claims his race the equal OF the white

Democrat is consistent and logical in
denying the negro the right of franchise

believes him to be an altogether different
