The senior editor of the Cincinnati Commercial
writes as follows from Washington concerning the
political position of the Chief Justice. The fact
that the Commercial has for years been in close
cord with Mr.. Chase win add significance to this
out-giving
That Mr.. Chase is not in thorough accord with
the Republican party organization, as it Is
conducted has been positive stated and it is
the first place, be is not imPeacher, and that
is the highest test of partisan fidelity. Then
he believes in the doctneO of universal amnesty and
impartial suffrage, and that that is the true and
sure and safe basis reconstruction. he Is then of
opinion that there should be an end OF restrictive
leg -lation and military rule in tho South. He be-
licves, too, that the Southern masters are making
lamenable mistake in decli ning political fellowship
speedy exit from their troubles would be found in
wisely conciiating the blacks and making them as
they might be made the faithful friends Of the South
which needs but kindly relations between the races
and the return peaceful industry to stand up
deemed and regenerated.
] presume that il such a miracle should occur
that Mr.. Chase were nominated by the Repubii-
cans of Chicago, or tha Democrats of New York,
his judgmenta dsclarBtOn of sound principles that
nc would not decline the nomination. am sure
that BE would not decline TO co-opsrate with any Of
his fellow-citizens who were, in his opinion, tax
ing a course that would promote good viii among
American citizens and heal the wounds Of the ma
ton. But Judge Chase is not expecting any such q
miracle, and is discharging his duties unVeXed BY
vain ambition. He is in perfect health aud cheer
ful spirits and bears in his person the promise Of
many years Of eminent capacity. That his long and
varied public services distinguished by the highest
order ability and his spotless private character
entitle him consideration first citlZen Is
Propositca plain that il wiz hardly be disPut-
cd. And the time may come when the people Will
recognize, In the selection Of Chief astrate, the
expediency Of principles that arc clear, and COM
potency proved by experience.

The Washington correspondent of the
Cincinnati Commercial writes on the gath
inst. as follows:
"The President has not only astonished
the Senate, but the town, by sending TO the
former, this afternoon, a message stating
that he withdraws the nomination of Thos.
Ewing to be Secretary of War, and ap-
points. by and with the advice Of the Sen
ate, Gen. John M. Schofeld to that posi-
ton. The fact that the nomination is not
made as an Gd interim appointment, and
that it is submitted promptly to the Senate
for approval, coupled also with the fact that
Gen. Schofeld is in turn guest at the res
idence of Gen. Grant, have given rise to
considerable speculalions and comment.
The idea has been advanced that there are
conservative Republicans who would vote
against impeachment in the Senate, pToVi-
ded they could feel confident that the Pres
ident would nominate some one for the
War Office acceptable to the Senate,
and also to General Grant. The Presi-
dent, however, has acceded TO this idea
without consulting his Cabinet. General
Thomas, on being informed of Scho6eld's
nomination, tonight, expressed great sur
prise, and said he did not believe it, be-
cause the matter was not preached to-day
a the regular Cabinet meeting, which he
attended. In brief Executive session Of
the Senate this afternoon, the nomination
of Gen Scho6eld was temporarily laid over,
without reference"

Let Us think over this. Secret Societies

also, by law of nature. created secret So

Oligarchy of negroes, such as is sPringing

by law of human existence, brings into

White Secret Societies be organized on the
other. And these opposite organizations,
founded mainly upon race, and the differ
