WASHINGTON, September 6, 1868.

WASHINGTON, September 6, 1858.
A quiet, pleasant Sabbath reigns, ana
for the nonce internal revenue corruptlons
and dlleqed internal revenue corruptIons
are out of range Of general discussion. The
confabs about q September session among
politicians are laid aside, and very little, II
ANYTHING, of real Importance or general
sensation is stirring. There IS some COM
ment on Maine clerks going home to vote
the Radical ticket, as some intend dong,
having taken their vacation ut this time Tor
that purpose, while it is even true that some
who have already had their annual rel,e'
from their arduous () and overpowerlng ~
clerical duties intend taking another
recess in behalf Of their Republican sut-
frage. There is but little chance that they
will tell their friends at home of the beau
ties of negro rule, exemplifed here, and
warn them against admitting the doctrine IN
Maine, where, if the Radicals had the
courage to introduce single squad of their
negro Zouaves, majority would be bound
to roll I'D against them instead of IN their
favor, as they now loudly claim the result
uM be.
The public debt statement, which comes
out tomorrow, cannot certainly help the
Radical cause but the question is, Are the
people of the North awake to the real facts
Do they know that the expenses OF the war
Department, including the Freedmen's bu-
reau, forms the bulk almost of the d1sourse-
ments for August and there are no assn
RANGES that it will even be any better this
month. 1t looks almost as if the delay IN
presenting the debt statement was to make
It appear rs we'll az possible; but the longer
it is delayed, and the more accounts ana
vouchers that are received, really, in this
instance, swell the increase of the debt.
Commissioner Rollins will make no De-
mocratic nominations of supervisors, and
therefore unless the Secretary of the Trea-
sury gets an official opinion from the At
torney- General that under the law he
(McCulloch) can appoint without nomi-
nation from the Commissioner (Which is not
likely, the offices will remain vacant. The
applicants who have the assurance that
they have been nominated are Disguised,
and it would not be bad thing for them if
they should have their chances diminished

do, but to which the Commissioner persist
emily objects. IIMoS.

The DRIFT OF THE POPULAR TIDE
BENNETT has come to the conclusion that
GRANT will be elected. We copy what he
says:
"The Vermont election Of Tuesday last
was as much a trial before the people of the
strength of Grant and Colfax on the one
side, and Seymour and Blair on the other,
as if they had been directly voted for; and
the result, from our observations on these
preliminary local elections of many years,
indicates the drift of the popular tide
throughout the country on the main ques-
ton. We are prepared for similar result
in Maine, some nine days hence, and for
corresponding Republican successes IN the
October State elections in Pennsylvania,
Ohio, and Indiana. In the event OF such
successes, no doubt will remain as to the
Presidential issue in November"
1t is too soon as yet to predict with any
confidence the result of the November cleo
ton. There are thousand contingencies the
happening of any one Of which may change
the whole appearance of the contest. 1t is,
however, we'll enough for our people to
know in what direction such weathercock
az BENNETT tells us the wind blows. He
il not partial to GRANT. He says whatever
will best promote the interests of his pa
Der: and so far his may be considered az
an impartial opinion.

PErERsRIRG. Septemher I, !

PETERsBrRG, September 7, 1868.
Sunday, though of right day devoted to
spiritual improvement and to rest both OF
mind and body, seldom passes by without
some instances OF disorder. Yesterday a
negro man was arrested in South Ward by a
constable, who found it necessary to tie his
hands in order to take him to jail. Some Of
his comrades, incensed at this, combined
together, and cut the cord. The negro then
walked off without any attempt to recapture
him. To-day the Mayor had several parties
before him charged with the rescue, but
the proof was not sufficient to convict them.
He took occasion, however, to lecture them
on the improperly of interfering with an
officer, and to notify them that the law
should be sustained at all hazards. Our
negroes are, as a body, as quiet and we'll
disposed as they are in any other commu-
nifty, but it is doubtless owing to the we'll
grounded fear they entertain Of being
severely punished that they are not oftener
misled by evil-minded men. Another
rescue was effected on Saturday night. a
rogue was taken in the act Of stealing to-
bacco at Oaks Warehouse, but in this case
by citizens and not officers.
A fight occurred yesterday, one of the
parties to which is reported to have been a
member of the City Council of General
S;hofeld's appointment. AS the affair took
place in a drinking house, and the public
peace not disturbed, it has been suffered to
pass by without investigation.
One after another We are losing our bust
ness men, who move away to seek their for
tunes in other fields of enterprise. Colonel
John M. Davenport, for many years
prominent auctioneer, left this morning for
Louisville with the intention of making
permanent settlement there, and in day
or two We shall lose one Of our young men
Of the finest business talents in the person
of George j. Rogers, who goes to Norfolk TO
carry on the commission business on his
own account. Mr.. Rogers is an ex-Confed-
crate captain, and was stationed near Nor
folk till the evacuation of the city. He has
an extensive acquaintance there, as most
of the young men of that place were at
tached to the Twelfth regiment, of which he
was quartermaster. We commend both Of
these gentlemen to the kind regards of the
people among whom they cast their lot.

upon 1t. If the "will of the people "Iis to
be the supreme law of the land, the Consti-
tuition ia not worth as much as the paper
anon which 1t was originally written.
If, then, General GRANT weighed his Ian
cuage, and meant to say that, after taking
an oath to support this Constitution he
would allow the will of the people to over
ride that instrument, and would not inter
pose to protect minerities from the wrongs
which unscrupulous majorities might en-
deavor to perpetrate upon them, he is no
more fit to be President than lunatic. If
he meant that the "will of the people "
would be so potent with him that he would
not hold up the Constitution as o shield for
the minority he ought to receive the vote
of no man who understands what constitu-
tons are and for what purposes they are
intended. Indeed, it is perfect farce to
have President at all If he is going to lie
down in inglorious idleness and ease and
allow the masses Of the people to "work
their will," whatever it may be.
The Radicals have shown us the meaning
of this sort of talk. Having majority in
Congress, they have violated their oaths and
the Constitution itself in many various
ways, in osJer that their will might be car
rie3 oat. They have allowed no cousidera-
sions of honor, honesty, or good faith. to in
tereese between them and their purpose
