THE RADICALS ON CHASE. radicals
are beginning to feel bad and are exceedingly
savage on Chase. They have reason to be.
They say he has abandoned their party and
turned traitor, like Johnson. Our opinion is
that Chase was never mere partisan, never
assented that he was the property of any party,
whether democrat, whig, free soil, republican
or radical We believe that he stands quite
above those little currents of opinion that
make party, takes the stand of statesman
and acts with any party that for the time seems
in the way to carry out his great idea in regard
to the country. He does not accomplish party
purposes but makes party accomplish his pur-
pose. This was the policy of Peel, who used
all parties at will. II is the course of Bright
Of Gladstone, of Disraeli This would have
been also the course of Theirs, controlling, per-
haps, the deslinies of France, had he gone into
the Cabinet of Louis Philippe instead of that
small and inooherent party man, Guizot Every
statesman of name has stood and stands above
party in exactly the same way. Chase has not
''turned traitor to any party. He is simply
still faithful to the country and finds that an
other party than the radical party is likely to
do what is best for the nation.

TRAVEL In AND Our OF New YoRK-We
have made a comparative estimate of the
travel in and out of this city daily of what
may be termed strangers-that is, of persons
not doing business here, who come in and go
out daily. On an average there are about
twenty thousand strangers coming in and the
same number going out every day That
would be about seven millions year. From
this estimate we exclude the two TO three hun
dred thousand emigrants arriving every year
and all those living outside and doing business
in the city. The strangers we speak of are
pleasure seekers, travellers and those who
come on business. Supposing each individual
spends only ten dollars this would bring to our
hotels, restaurants, places of amusement and
other establishments an income of over seventy
millions a year, to say nothing of the much
larger amount spent at the dry goods and other
stores. These are the evidences and advan-
tages Of mighty commercial metropolis But
in the course of few years this travel to and
from New York and expenditure of money here
will be vastly augmented The growth and
business Of New York represent the progress
and wealth of the country, and they march to-
gether.

THE SAENaEIFEsT AND CoNaRRss Our
German fellow citizens get up festival and
manage II in handsome spirit, doing the
thing with all the might Of their hearty natures ;
and we suppose that the whole public generally
sympathizes with them in their anticipations of
pleasure at the great feast they are now organ
izing. We hope the reality may not fall short
in any respect and should rejoice to see them
get in all their prizes from Germany duty free
There is no reason why Congressman, az indi-
viduals, should not attend this festival and
share ts delights; but there are abundant and
good reasons why men should not attend il

PROBABLE RESULTS OF THE PRESENT Con-
sRRvATIvE MOVEMENT time ago the
conservatives started a movement to cut in
between the radicals and copperheads, but
they had no head or ralying point, and that
movement failed Now they are trying again
and have got on the right track Chief Justice
Chase Is the head and the Democratic Conven-
ton is the rallying point for this new move
ment. II Is formidable aud started at the pro-
per time. If Mr.. Chase should be nominated
his nomination will break up and demoralize
the republicans In and out of Congress. The
conservative Senators, who killed impeach-
ment and who are already virtually read out
Of the radical party, would, both from choice
and necessity, go for Mr. Chase and they,
with other conservative republican leaders,
would draw with them large vote. Such is
the prospect aud such would be the result,
probably, II the New York Convention should
have the good sense to nominate the Chief
Justice.

GRANT AND CuAsE-TnE PAST AND THE
FUTURE.-Grant put down the rebellion by
force Of arms, though at terrible cost Chase
furnished the sinews Of war to accomplish that
object. But all this is in the past What we
have to look to now is the future. The
supremacy Of civil government and civil liberty
over military despotism and the regulation Of
the national finances are the paramount objects
in view at the present time. Grant is not the
man for these; they are not 10 his line. Chase
is the man TO restore civil government and TO
regulate the finances.

REcoNsTRUorroN WANTED ALL ROUND. The
radicals have about reconstructed the South
after their fashion, bringing in the pet-bag-
gers, negroes and all the ignorance, filth and
barbarism possible, while the intelligent whites
are excluded. As it is the best that can be
got from this Jacobin Congress we must take
It, Anything is better, perhaps, than con-
tnued disunion. Political reconstruction being
accomplished, the next thing we want is recon-
struction Of the currency and finances. Who
will propose and who have got the brains

LoaAN's DISGUST. Logan cannot get
over the dreadful failure to remove the Presi-
dent. He is determined to remove something,
1t seems, and failing the President goes at the
capital. He will remove the capital because
the people in Washington are 'disloyal"-that
is, not radical. They, perhaps, do not admire
Logan, and he wants to take the capital of the
nation to some place where they do admire
Logan-out West, of course. 1t is a good
policy he indicates Let the nation spend
hundred millions on public buildings in some
new spot, and then when the people that settle
around do not sympathize with some crazy
party of the future move it again

ofhcer and the President OF the United States.
such conduct, however, Is the natural result of
taking away the legitimate power and humi-
hating the Executive Of the nation by vim

being allowed to resign, ought to be dismissed
Instantly.

FRENCH MILLINERY AND AMERICAN DRY
GooDs.-We complain of the income tax and
other taxes and with reason, for they are GER
tainly heavy enough but what are these to
the taxes of three or four hundred per cent
over cost imposed upon us by French milli-
ners and all who make up French fancy goods
and American dry goods for us to wear? The
prices in this city frghtfu and out of all pro-
portion to cost or to the profits of other kinds
Of business. In the matter of French millinery
particularly prices are ridiculously extrava-
CANT If the materials of an article cost ten
dollars unmade the price made up is from fifty
to hundred dollars. Now, why should not
A. 7. Stewart, Lord Il Taylor, Arnold &
Constable, Sloane and other houses which i'm
port and sell everything in the way of wearing
materials, get their goods made up for custom
ers at fair price for labor and skill over the
cost of the goods? They can get it done
quite as well and as fashionably. And why
should not our ladies save three, four or five
hundred per cent in this way? A word to the
wise is sufficient.

By cable kilograms dated in London on Sat-
urday and yesterday we have rumors, repeated
almost to confirmation, to the effect that
Mr.. Dsraeli contemplates dissolving Parlia-
ment. There is nothing new in this piece of
information, for, as we all know, Mr.. Disraeli
has been for the last three months frightening
the members of the House Of Commons into
obedience and good behavior by threatening
to dissolve Parliament and make an appeal to
the people. Mr.. Disraeli, however, is as little
willing to dissolve Parliament as any of the
members are to be sent back at present to their
constituents. Still the government of England
Is at present conducted In such an abnormal
fashion that, as many Of the leading journals
have already declared, general election, with
all its decentralization and money cost, might be
positive blessing. AS Prime Minister Mr..
Disraeli has an unquestioned right to test his
position by an appeal to the country; but as
general election, with or without one now,
is inevitable under the new Reform bill, and
as there is scarcely the shadow of chance
would improve his position, it amounts almost
to certainty that there will be no dissolution
until the Scotch and Irish Reform bills shall
have passed into law and the new constitu-
encies all over the three kingdoms are in full
working order. However, Mr.. Disraeli is not
wanting in bravery, and if overmuch annoyed
he may put his threat into execution, hold an
election in November and face a new Parlia-
ment just before Christmas.
FINANCIAL BREAKERS AHRAD.-A hundred
millions of taxation has been taken of, and
that chiefly to benefit small portion of the
manufacturers of the Eastern
States-while the revenue is declining in every
direction and nowhere coming up to the esti-
mates. The expenditures have been increas-
ing, and in the War Department enormously
the weight of the debt has been increased by
the msmanagement of Mr.. McCulloch, for the
aggregate interest on the debt is much
larger the Treasury is being depleted and
there is every prospect that within short time
the income of the government will not meet
the demands. If there be not some radical
change for the better soon the Treasury will
be bankrupt. Looking at the extraordinary
proceedings in Congress on the tax BILL reve-
nue. laws and other financial measures and
at the incapacity of members, we fear the
government is approaching financial ruin.
We advise the people to look out for breakers
ahead.

A VERY IMPERTINsNr OFFICIAL. Mr. Com
missioner Rollins letter to Secretary N cCuIloch
is very impertinent one, and that consequent
tial radical official deserved the rebuke admin
istered to him by the Secretary. We have not
a high opinion of Mr.. McCulloch, but he did
good thing in returning the disrespectful and
impudent epistle Of this conceited and schem-
ing Commissioner Rollins evidently wanted
to make capital with the Jacobins 10 Congress

UTTER IaNoRAN0E OF CONGRESS ON FNAN-
DIAL AFFAIRs.- never was body of
men representing great nation so utterly
ignorant of financial affairs as our Congress.
The same may be said, indeed, Of the public
mon generally throughout the country. The
Stevenses, Shermans, McCullochs, Pendletons,
and the rest have got hold of some one idea
or another about national finance, and they
think they know everything and are great
statesmen. They are like the man who stole
q brick from the Acropolis at Athens, and
imagined he had appropriated all the wisdom
OF Greece. One goes for jumping to specie
payments and thus bankrupting the whole
country; another for flooding the country with
currency and creating carnival of excite
ment and gambling, and another for swelling
taxation and the list of taxed articles 80 that
no one will be able to understand the law,
while the cost Of collection will eat up the
revenue. The ordinary clerks in any great
commercial house of this city could do better.
Unless the people sift out better materials for
Legislators in the next Congressional elections
we may expect to see a terrible state of finan-
cial difficulties.
