HOW NOT TO DO 1T.

everybody has heard of the unfortunate ad-
venturer who drew in rattle an enormous
elephant with an appetite corresponding TO its
proportions. The acquisition of this beast
would have been exceedingly delightful to its
new proprietor, only he could not afford to keep
it, and could neither sell it nor give it away.
The Democratic ex-Slaveholders seem to be
mostly in this perplexing predicament. They
would like hugely to have the colored vote for
Seymour, but, even if it were to be had for the
asking, their attempts to ask for it are ludicrous
in the extreme. Under the circumstances this
is not an easy thing to do; there being great deal
of human nature in the bosom of the Patriarch,
some of it is apt to get into his mouth, and
his experiments in adjusting his organs Of
speech to seek for favors from his late bond
men result pretty often in the most remarkable
contOrtions. The endeavors of the ex-masters,
in this department of public duty, to hit tho
exact line between the most sublime cOnde-
scensi0n and the friendiest familiarity, give to
all their addresses, and speeches, and leading
articles the same duality of tone which char
acterized the vocal organs of Mr. Orator Puff.
These, as the reader will remember, were
sometimes raised to "B alt," and instantly
sunk to &C below"
"Good Lord" he exclaimed in his heandshe tones,
Help me OUT help me ont have broken my bones -
+" Help you out" said Paddy who passed; "what a
There two you there can't you help another ."
The consequence of this extensive vocal
register is that these Southern Democrats some-
times sigh and sometimes swear; sometimes,
by way of suitable gesture, they snap the fingers
of those hands which anon are raised in the atti-
tude of petition now they are ferocious, andnow
fascinatingj and so they go on vibrating be-
tween threats and promises, until the puzzled
Freedman, finding it impossible easily to decide
whether they are friends or foes, will hardly
give them tho benefit Of tho donbt. That
Blacks should vote at all, they hold to be an
insuilerable grievance; but if Blacks must vote,
let it by all means be upon their side! The
vote in such incapable handsI is utterly worthless
unless they can secure it-then, indeed, it be-
comes at once and incidentally precious. In a
word, if they can convert voters into moral
slaves, to do their bidding, to sustain their
opinions, to become their unquesti0nng and
convenient instruments, all will be serene and
they will be content. On the other hand, a
Freedman who will not vote for Seymour is a
rascal, an idiot, an migrate, q lunatic, an incen-
diary, and knavel So they offer him glasses
of rum and eleemosyriary breeches, houses and
employment, groceries and boots but If these
Establishments arc disregarded, the Patriarchs
kedness, hunger, houselessncss, and every other
form of the most fearful dcstitutiOn.
These yibratory emotions we have already
New-York tribune., 1868-09-21

We don't know how enthusiastic Mr.. Secre-
tary McCulloch may be for Blair and Seymour
but his health is only $3.50, and therefore he
doesn't execute any very vigorous war dances
in behalf of those individuals. Being invited
to attend a meeting of the Jackson Democratic
Association of Washington, he sends his ere
grets" in seven lines of stately frigidity, in
which he doesn't once mention Seymour. and
actually forgets to speak of the gentle Blair.
All he says is that he is rather than else in
favor of preserving the Constitution, and SYM
pathizes with "all proper efforts in that behalf
He doesn't cheer, nor encourage, nor animate,
nor excite nor stimulate, nor even congratu-
late the Washington Democrats on the result
of the Maine election. ALI he says is that he
"sympathizes in all proper efforts" He seems
to be marvellous proper man; and it is well
for Blair and the Democracy that their tri-
umph doesn't depend upon Mr. McCulloch's
struggles.
New-York tribune., 1868-09-21

Mr.. William A. Wallace is Chairman OF the
Pennsylvania Democratic State Committee
and not a." Mark Tapley," as we the other day
inadvertently stated. This gentleman has Is
sued manifesto proving that there has been
a great Democratic victory in Maine, but admit
ting that. the State will probably vote for Grant.
And here Mr.. Wallace, leaving cOifee-making
for while, comes in with his trenchant and
invincible logic, as follows Maine voted tor
John c. Fremont, yet James Buchanan was
elected President. and Pennsylvania led the
column &c. &C., that made j. B. the Presi-
dent. Therefore, argues Bunsby Wallace, as
Maine will vote for Grant, so Pennsylvania
must certainly vote for Seymour Therefore,
we suppose, if Maine should vote for Seymour
then Pennsylvania will certainly vote Tor
Grant Now, it is clearly evident that IL the
Democrats go on gaining in Maine from now
until the next election, in the ratio claimed
by them in the last election, Maine must inevl-
tably vote for Seymour. Ergo, Pennsylvania
will vote for Grant. Q. E. ID. Stick to your
coffee pots, Mr.. Wallace F.!

Under the rule of Mr. Hoffman as Mayor OF
New-York the Street Commissioner is allowed
20 spend S13500O under the false pretense of
keeping the streets in repair for six months, to
charge $4,000 for putting down $4,000 worth
of timber on the wharves and piers, and to
draw $4,000 for $4,000 worth of labor on the
same disgraceful structures; the new Court
House swindle swells in magnitude week by
week; the Common Council revels unchecked
in every sort of villainy, and the taxes IN
crease at perfectly awful rate. Mr.. Holman
was elected to guard us against such wrongs
as these. He has not lifted his finger IN our
defense, yet he asks to be intrusted with still
greater responsibilities. Does he take the

THE EARL OF MAYO.

The English Government seems to persist in
the appointment OF the Earl OF Mayo Governor Cen
era OF India although nearly the entire press OF Inda
on the first report OF such appointment entered an
emphatic protest against It, The Right Hon. Richard
southwelB Bourke sixth Earl Of May born in Dublin,
Feb ls22 He was, Lord Mas, Chief Secretary for
Ireland in Lord Derbys first administration IN 1882 ana
on that occasion was made Prvy Councillor. He held
tho Office in Lord Derbys second administration In
s5s5g; and again with seat in the Cabinet In Lord
Derbys third administration In 1865. lie was returned

conservative interest for the County OF Kildare,
In August, ls47, was member from Coeraine
from March, 1884, till March, 1851 when he was returned
one the members OF Cockermouth This place he rep
resented until August 1867 when he succeeded his father
rs sixth Earl OF Mayo the peerage OF Ireland He Is
tho author OF work "st Petersburg and Moscow In
his negotiations with the Roman Catholic Bishops Of Ire
land aud In his speeches on the Irish question: Earl
Mayo strongly ntimatod that he was ready TO support
an endowment OF the Roman Catholic Church In Ireland
by the side OF the Anglican. The intmaon received
by the Tory party with decided marks of disapproval
that the Cabinet promptly dsayOwed 10. The successor
10 Earl Mayo as Secretary for Ireland is John wilson
Paon heraofora Chancellor of the Duohy OF Lancaster
New-York tribune., 1868-09-21

The news from Japan is again highly import
ant. The Northern Daimios who support the
cause of the cx-TycOon StOtsbashi against the
Young Mikado or rather against the Southern
Daimios, who have complete control OF the
Young Mikado, have appointed a new Mikado.
This measure has spread alarm among the
Southern party, who now desire the young
Mikado to abdicate-advice which 1t is SAID
will be accepted. The brother of the ex-
Tycoon, who has been educated in Paris, has
succeeded his father as Prince of Mito, and
will thus become one of the chiefs of the North
ern party. He of course, fully shares the
friendly sentiments of his brothers toward
foreigners. The Southern party has lost one OF
its most powerful members by the detection OF
Prince TOsa. All this indicates that the North
elm party is on the point of obtaining complete
success, an event which would be hailed by
the civilized world with delight
New-York tribune., 1868-09-21

The tottering throne of the last of the reign
ing Bourbons seems about to receive another
and yet ruder shock. Queen Isabella, who has
been seeking the good offices of Napoleon, is
suddenly recalled to her disloyal capital by a dis
solution of her Cabinet, fresh menace from her
irrepressible enemy, Gen. Prim, and the signs OF
a general rising against her hated rule. The re-
Gently exiled Generals-among whom was one
of the royal family itself-seem to be coopera-
ting with Prim, and the brief statements we
have from Madrid by the Cable seem to hint
at a more formidable revolt than any of those
that have lately kept the Government in per-
petual alarm.
New-York tribune., 1868-09-21

A quorum of both Houses of Congress is
probable tomorrow, and certain by Tuesday.
Only eight more were needed last night to
make up the quorum in the Senate. Members
are wisely desirous of doing no business be-
yond continuing the recess till October, and
even the lobbyists, who plead for at least Ex-
ecutive sessions of the Senate, seem doomed
to disappointment. If the House should open
the doors at ALL we hope it will only be for
the promised Committee of Investigation into
the Internal Revenue trouble. And if such a
Committee is TO be appointed, we venture to
suggest to the Speaker that we want for it
three of the best shrewdest, and fairest-minded
men in Congress.
