Charles w. Woolley is notoriously the depos-
itory of secrets with regard to the corrupt use
of money to influence the votes of Senators
on the impeachment of Andrew johnson. lie
has already sworn to several distinct lies with
regard to the disposal of large sums traced
into his hands and thus far traced no further.
The Impeachment Managers are determined to
ascertain what he did with that money; the
Republican majority of the House back the
Committee in that determination the Demo
cratic minority is doing its utmost to help
Woolley cover up the villainies whereof he was
the agent and of which he seeks to conceal the
evidence. The House is the arena of strug-
gle whereof the object on one side is to un-
cover on the other to hide, the villainies which
this criminal could expose, but will not.
Would the Democrats in Congress exhibit
themselves thus discreditably if they did not
fully believe that the truth which Woolley
conceals would damage their party by dscrcd-
iting the acqnittal of JohnsOni
New-York tribune., 1868-06-01

= FeyR
rapid emigration of Northern capital and skilled
workmen into the South would have kndled
tho dormant, and wasted energies of that sec
ton into new life and vigcr TINT would have
soon rivalled the growth of the Western States.
All these circumstances would tend to restore
tbe balance of trade with Europe in our favor,
by making our productions exceed our con-
snmption. The surplus capital hus obtained,
and seeking investment, would give rise to
demand for our bonds, stOppinG their export
and causing their return. This would enhance
the value of our bonds to par in gold, and
Herewith would have brought our cur
rency and the entire credit business of
the country to par, or speie payments.
All that is needed to the attainment of these
great results is President who will "mind
{" his own business" energeticaly and faith
fully. and Congress who will attend to theirs.
The first of these requisites Gen. Grant will sup
ply. But let the people bear in mind that by the
very terms of his pledge the future political
and legislative policies of the country will not
be determined merely by the election of Grant,
but must depend on the majohties in both
Houses of Congress. Let the Republican party
look discreetly after its nominations for the
lower House of Congress, and for tho State
Legislatures, on whom depends the
choice of Senators. BY the very
terms of his pledge, he success
of Republican principles on any question Is
not won by the election of Gen. Grant, but
will throughout his administration depend upon
the ability Of the Republican party to MAINTAIN
its majorites in both Houses Of Congress. III
Congress remain Republican, Gen. Grant
executes Republican laws without question
If Congress become Democratic, he executes
Democratic policies with equal readiness and
decision. This we believe to be IN accordance
with the true theory of republican govern
ment and the very highest statesmanshp and
soundest policy possible in an executive officer.
But it divests the election of President, con-
sidered in itself merely, of much of what we
have been accustomed to regard as its political
effect, and gives us merely good Executive,
not mighty champion of our fivorite ideas
Let the Republican party, therefore look
early and thoroughly after the next Congress.

Alonzo Mccormick, Newark saddler aged
"a, murdered his wife, aged 1s, in Brooklyn on
Saturday, by shooting her through the head
with a pistol. He Immediately attempted 10
kill himself also, by firing pistol at his heart
which he barely missed, so that he lived some
hours afterward.
The sole cause of this murder and suicide
was IntempeTance. Mccormick was neither
better nor worse than are thousands of other
young mechanics, except that his passion for
Rum was more intense and his consumption OF
that internal fluid somewhat greater. More ac-
curately-he had gone little further on the
road which millions are heedlessly travelling.
Intoxicating liquors robbed him of industry,
thrift sobriety, esteem, hope ambition, and
made him murderer of her he had sworn to
love and cherish and suicide. How many
young men will be warned by his fearful ca
reer to renomce and shun the maddening cup
of which he is but one among myriads of vic
tins

story that " the vote of Senator Pomeroy wa.
offered for consideration to acquit the Prs.

slow to believe that Senator Pomeroy (who. Il
may be remarked in passing, is a gentleman oi

accepting a bribe, but of STOPPING to the ute,

We print on another page forcible letter
from Mr.. s. Wilkeson, urging that the Govern
ment loan its credit in aid of the proposed ex-
tension of the "Union Pacific" or Kansas Pacific
Railroad from its present terminus near the
west line of Kansas, through New Mexico and
Arizona, on or near the 35th parallel of N lat
itude, to the great ocean. Mr.. w. is thorough
ly master of his subject, and his facts and fig
ures throw much light on the Importance of
the proposed Pacific roads, as of the wisdom and
necessity of extending National aid to their
construction. We heartily commend these facts
TO general attention and, if there be any who
need Gas we do not to be convinced of the
propriety and benelcence of extending such aid
we beg him to read and be enlightened.
We think Mr.. Wilkeson has made out case
that fully justfies the aid he favors to the ex-
tent of carrying the Union Pacific Road through
New-Mexico to the Rio Grande. The fact that
the men are now at work in the wilds of
Western Kansas and that it involves heavy

The West-Side Association, composed of
owners of real estate situate west of Fifth
ave. and the Central Park has accomplished
much for the improvement of the property of
the members since its organization a few years
ago, but it still pursues its object with energy
and vigor, and promises in comparatively
short time to obtain for that section larger
share of the attention of our legislative bodies
than any other part of the city Indeed, the
labors of the West-Side Association have been
so successful that citizens directly interested in
the improvement of property on the east side
of town have organized, so that they, too may
concert measures for enhancing the value of
their lands and houses from Grand-st. to the
Harlem River. The widening of Broadway,

With a dozen mOmentOus issues before the
country, and pending the most important of
our elections, Erastus Brooks, esq, can find
nothing better to talk about than the thunder
striking fact that in Charleston, S. c., seven
dark -complexioned Aldermen have been ap-
pointed by Gen. Candy. One would think,
from the character of Mr.. Brookss wall, that
he had never in his life seen any Alderman
who was not pure, righteous, highly educated,
perfectly incOrruptible, and in every way,
shape and fashion model man. Singuarly
enough the newspapers which communicate
the apprehensions of L. Brooks contain, in the
same issue, the details of one of the nastiest
jobs ever engineered even through our own
City Hall, which the intelligent reader will
admit is saying great deal indeed. If the
Black Aldermen of Charleston figure in
anything less defensible than our Stat
ford Pavement contract, we fear that we
shall not have q syllable to say in their
behalf. If the Colored Fathers of the Gen
erals creation can eat any more, or drink any
more, or steal any more, and all at the expense
of the Corporation, than the usual and regular
New-York Alderman, then we submit that
these dusby elders must have degree of nat
ural ability in view of which Mr.. Brooks will
be perfectly justified in drying his tears and
suspending his tristful Groom, and allowing
Hope once more to animate his desolate
bosom.
If Mr.. Brooks and others of his way of
thinking will only be as fastidious in nomnat-
ing Aldermen in New-York as they are in
criticising the arrangements in Charleston, we
shall feel that municipal millennium is not
absolutely impossible. At present we suspect
that an Alderman out of a negro cabin is
quite as likely to serve city with fidelity as
an Alderman out of gin-mll. If E. Brooks
and his comrades hereafter are going in for
high moral character and liberal intellectual
development in the selection of city officers, it
seems to us unnecessary for them to use their
microscopes in detecting the black drop about
which they are always prating.

The new national annversary-that devoted
to refreshing the public remembrance of the
soldiers who fell in the War for the Union
has become fairly established, judging from
the earnestness with which it was observed
throughout the country on Saturday and yes
terday. The graves of the patriot dead, whcr-
ever they lie, were heaped with flOwers-a
simple yet eloquent service, originated in the
Southern States. The ceremonies at Cypress
Hills yesterday were on a very extended scale,
and very appropriate and impressive.

Some little progress was made with the
Arkansas bill in the Senate on Saturday.
Senator Wilson made strong and
sensible speech, urging a speedy consum-
nation of the work of Reconstruction,
which it is to be hoped will do something to

tutional qubbling into which it had got Mr..

YlRGINI1 LOY1LTY.


Certain ladies residing around Sudley Church,
Virginia. have associated themselves for the
purpose of collecting and ftly reinterring the
mortal remains of the Confederate dead, who
lie scattered by thousands on the adjacent
fields Of Bull Run, Graveton, Gainesville, &c.
&C. For this purpose they desire to raise
$4,000. The object is commendable, and the
movement need not have been rendered OBJ
noxious to any one; but the ladies see fit to
commend it in the following language:
"The noble and brave heroes that gave up their fe's
blood upon the altar OF their country now lie buried
without scarcely yestge TO mark their honored graves
We appeal TO fathers mothers sisters and brothers 10
spirits will bless you and your beneyolence viii the
heart of the Widows and Orphans OF the dead snail we
neglect tho graves Of the chyalrous Southerners that
offered up their lives for our independence snall we
owe debt to the remains OF our honored dead whlcn
must not be neglected because we have passed through
the terrible ordeal with lives and health &c. &c. &c
Without the faintest desire to embarrass
the ladies in their undertaxing-and determined
not to handy words with them-we must say that
their language seems to us singularly injudlclous
and untimely. Their male relatives claim now
to be loyal, faithful citizens of the United
States. They protest against the temporary
exclusion Of tenth of their number from po-
litical power. If we wished to prOlOng that
exclusion, we should confidently rely on this
talk of their sisters and daughters to justify
that measure.

Presbyterians would settle one township, the
MethOdists another, the Baptists another, and
so on, the number of church-edifces might be
reduced to O minimum; while their size and
consequence would be greatly increased, and a

per annum where sixty now try to support ex-
istence on $500 to $1,000 each. And the rule
"Poor pay, poor preach" though by no means

The Taxation Doctors disagree Mr.. Amasa
Walker in Hunts Magazine, declares that no
taxes should be levied except according to
Z" the ability Of the taxpayer" !. e., upon in
come. His co-labOrers, Perry, Leber, and the
Rev. DR.. Prime, in sanhedrim assembled, de-
clare that no taxes should be levied upon in
come, or according to ability, but that all taxes
should be reduced to few in number, and
consequently levied according to consumption.
Mr. Walker would collect them all from the
rich. His colleagues would CLEAN them all from
the poor Owing to this distressing difference
Congress remains without any definite instruc-
tions What shall be doneq
Mr.. Walker undertakes to show that the cost
of collecting customs is SO per cent on the
amount obtained; that the cost of collecting
the Internal Revenue is 81 per cent, and that
the cost Of the direct taxes (on Income, stamps,
&c) is only per cent. Since the taxes on
imports are so expensive, if all tariffs were
made prohibitory the Free-Traders must admit,
according to Mr.. Walkers figures, that we
would save on the mere cost of collecting our
taxes an amount equal to two-thirds of the
entire sum, or say S2OOOOO,OOO per year. This
is the strongest argument for prohibltory
tariffs which has yet been invented by Free
Trader.
Mr. Walker argues, moreover, that "if by q
tariff the cost of foreign commodities
SIS enhanced by SO per cent, all home
manufactures, so far as they were pro-
"tected, must be raised in an equal degree
This is the old oftrefuted still repeated blunder.
The cost of home manufactures which are pro-
tectea Is the cost of production, t. e., the wages
of the labor and the interest and fair profits
of the capital employed in their production.
If tariff of $1,000 pair be laid on boots
worth s., according to Mr.. Walkers notion
the price of such boots should be $1,000 pair.
Nonsense. The price will be the cost of pro-
duction--no more. Competition between Amer
lean manufacturers will always keep the profits
down to fair wages for the labor, and fair in
terest on the capital employed, relatively to
the pay which labor and capital receive when
employed in other avocations.
