THE CREW OF LIE RAM SToNEwGLL AT HOVE
From some Of the crew Of the ram Stone wall,
who have returned to their homes in this city, we
learn that they were all discharged-at Yokohama,
Japan, June 2, except Samuel Ellis, (son Of Jonas
Ellis, Esq, of this city, who remains on board as
engineer. Capt Brown is still in command, and
has crew Of ten men detailed from the steam
sloop MOnocacy, to keep the ship in order. Many
of the crew de ermned TO remain in Yokohama,
and some Of them have already opened restau-
rants, barber shops, etc., which are mostly pa

great deal Of shipping in the hsrbor. The crew. ,

shouting for Chase they were, as usual, pre-
pairing the way for the success of their own
selfish intrigues 1t is acknowledged that New
York, with her commanding influence, her
large electoral vote, her great wealth and her
magnificent revolution Of 1867, had only to
declare boldly in favor of this Chase movement
from the start to control the action of
the Convention and carry the conservative
banner to victory Her delegates, actuated
by personal views and quarreliing among
themselves, have sacrificed all their power,
and whatever the result may be the RESPONSE
bility lies at their doors.
The truth is, the New York democracy have
broken faith with the conservative masses,
and have shown themselves to be without
intelligence to grasp the situation or courage
to vindicate their own position. Beginning
with Hoffman, and continuing on through Sey-
mour and Belmont down to poor Church, they
are all ignorant of the great lessons of the
past eight years, butting their copper heads
against the idea that the war was unconstitu-
tional, that Lincoln was unconstitutional, that
Congress is unconstitutional, and that there is
nothing in strict conformity with the constitu-
ton except jeff Davis, General Lee, poor
Pierce and the old democratic organization,
embracing Tammany Hall and the Albany
Regency. These men, after playing fast and
loose with Seymour, have now hit upon the
expedient of nominating a country lawyer
and Albany accountant as New Yorks choice
for the Presidency, in place of Chief Justice
Chase. Their platform, carried in the
pocket of one of their numerous candidates
for Governor, is as weak and wishy-washy as
their candidate. They do not recognize the
fourteenth amendment, as the people de-
handed they should, nor do they properly
denOunce the barbarism, brutality and degrade
ton Of negro political and social equality in
the Southern States. They are bold only in
cheating and rascality and timid where cour-
age is virtue. The result will be that after
exposing their own weakness and cowardce
they will become parties to platform as I'M
meaning as that Of the mongrel Chicago Con-
vention and to nomination that will be
miserably beaten in every State in the Union.
Not a candidate they have named stands
chance Of success, and the probability is that
whatever their action may be Judge Chase will
still be in the field, with complete conserva-
tive ticket in every State. They will thus not
only be compelled to submit to the rule of
Grant and the radicals for four years to come,
but will lose the State spoils, for which alone
some of them are playing. In fact unless
they nominate Chase they may as well aban-
don politics as a profession, break up their
organization and make up their minds to 60 to
work and earn an honest living during the rest
of their days.

WEAK IN THE MosT IMPORTANT PLANK OF
THE PLATFORM. Democratic Convention
shows itself very weak where it should be
strongest and most emphatic. It talks mildly
about the people of the States regulating the
suffrage for themselves, when il ought to de-
nounce in the severest terms the strocious
policy of the radicals in forcing universal
negro suffrage upon the South. This placing
the government of the Southern States In the
hands of negroes, and the white people, of our
own flesh and blood, under the heel of such
barbarians, presents the strongest issue before
the people. In fact, 1t is upon this Issue that
the reaction has taken place in public senti-
ment and upon which the democrats expect to
win. Why is It, then, that the Convention is
so tame OIL the question Of negro suffrage9
We fear u is composed of a set Of old trimming
fogies, incapable of comprehending the issues
of the time and the part they have been called
upon to perform.

HONOR OF THE New YORK POLITICIANS
Some of the copperhead newspapers say we
assail the honor Of the New York politicians.
This is new and refreshing idea. We never
knew these politicians had any honor to assal.
No one could be so credulous as to believe
they had. Search the world through and
no such scheming, trading, cheating and dis
honest set of politicians can be found any
where. They must laugh In their sleeves at the
shallow mockery of these silly organs ia at
tempting to defend their honor.

The Democrats and the Negro Vote in the
South.


The democrats by little manipulation
might hoist the radical engineers on their own
petard in the South. The Georgia Legislature,
it appears, is decisively democratic on joint
ballot, and bold darby in the South Carolina
Legislature has inaugurated an open political
warfare with the white republicans by demand
ing Office for the negro. He says that the re-
publicans have shown hostility to the
negro holding office, and they must
now take issue on the subject. The
bona fde original article of negro in tho
South is in all respects an aristocratic animal.
He despises ''poor white trash, and, it is
highly probable, considers himself somewhat
degraded by his present contact with the churi-
ish fellows who have risen to Office by his vote.
Under these circumstances little judicious
wirepulling, such as Wade Hampton used in
his speech at Columbia year or so ago, when
he gracefully accepted negro suffrage as an
accomplished fact, would have the effect OF
bringing these disguised darkies over to
the democratic doctrines of their old masters,
whom they still regard with feeling of salts
faction as better than themselves.
