FRIGHTENED Our OF Ir.-The printers,
when the man who did the city printing would
not pay the prices, went TO the Aldermen
about 1t. The Aldermen told the printers to
get out, as the city printing was q job that
did not count the journeymen in. Then the
journeymen threatened to remember the Alder
men at the polls, and this brought them. They
all agree now that the printing must be given
to somebody who will meet the demands
OF the printers. Here are the beauties Of
suffrage. Why should not every man vote
himself o fortune?

The New Era Of Progress and Commerce.
We are entering upon new period in our
national existence, and the line drawn between
this date and the past is eight years wide; il
is from 1861 to 1869. In this eight years Of
great national throe, this transition period
from the old to the new, we have seen
complete change in every political and COM
mercial feature Of the country. Eighteen
hundred and sixty-one found us, virtually,
a people divided in interests by two i'm
mense. and powerful systems Of progress
which had been gradually growing into antag-
onism since the foundation Of our government.
We had much Of that disintegrating principle
Of State rights In our composition In both Sec
tions Of the country, and we had the flourish
ing and curious anomaly, the slave system,
which was lodged In our constitution by article
one, section nine. The terrific struggle during
our rebellion overturned slavery, the State
rights theory, the sectionallsms, the narrow
existing jcalousies and many Of our constitu-
tional theories. We emerged from the war
with gigantic national debt Of nearly three
thousand millions Of dollars and our old Id eas
about government all knocked to pieces. Il
has taken US some four years to gather up our
scattered senses. That we have been success
ful in the effort Is proven by the fact that We
have elected General Grant to the Presi-
dency. During the four years past we have,
however, blundered about most sadly in
every political and financial direction. How
sadly Is best shown by the very sensible
speech just made In the Senate BY Mr.. Sprague,
Of Rhode Island. lie says at Is within my
own experience that the capital required to
do the same business in this country beyond
that required by the man doing similar busi-
ness 10 Great Britain Is more than three and
. half times as much; the English manufac-
turer plies his spindle at eighty cents, and
does his business upon a capital to en-
ploy that spindle at eighty cents; the Ameri-
can manufacturer is compelled TO employ =
capital Of two dollars and seventy-nve cents
for that capital This Is but one illustration,
but Il illustrates the whole business OF the
country" Again, Mr.. Spraguc mentions the
great number Of bankruptcies in 1867 and

FEARS A CoUP DErAr.-The Georgia Con
stitutiosalist, referring to the Cabinet, re-
marks :-"Rawlins is said to hold the same
influence over Grant that the late Count de
Morny held over Louis Napoleon. If matters
do not work to suit the President General,
Rawlins has good precedent for coup
detat." II would be queer sight to see Raw
Inns prowling around at midnight, with cor
poral's guard and dark lantern, catching
intractables and posting them of without
change Of linen to the coast Of Guinea. But
our Georgia contemporary need have no fears.

PROGRESS OF THE UNIFORM MOVEMENT
The Binghamton Democrat suggests the ''uni-
forming" of the inmates Of the Inebriate
Asylum, so that the liquor dealers may not be
imposed upon. Whereupon the Elmira AdOer-
Gser suggests that "it would look better and
read better if put the other way. Let the
liquor sellers be uniformed, SO that the inmates
Of the Asylum may not be imposed upon"
The better way would be to have some uni
form and wise legislation in Albany in regard
to this Asylum, as well as to all other public
institutions in the State. 1t may be argued
that the Inebriate Asylum at Binghamton is
not one of our public institutions but it is
certain inebriety is, and, therefore, it becomes
a ft subject for judicious but not fanstical
legislation AN

OR sseaa Navy.


In connection with our meagre peace allow
ance for the navy it is certainly very desirable
q most positive reformation) that economy In
the consumption of coal should take place.
For the past eight years it has not been reached
or even approached by the Steam Bureau in
the plans Of engines built for the navy. Great
unwieldy four-bladed propellers have had to
be dragged far below the surface Of the water,
and in every instance have proved almost q
positive hindrance to the progress OF the yes
sci when the attempt to sail them has been
made. They will not steer, tack or wear
under sail, and in order to proceed from porto
port steam has to be used. Our vessels should
both sail and steam with favorable results, and
any other vessels for cruising purposes in the
United States Navy should not be allowed
commission.
The news from Washington indicates many
changes in the chiefs of the naval bureaus,
which will bring about, we hope, this desired
result. The officers of the navy are keenly
alive to the necessity, and now urge the pas
sage Of some law which will place the con-
struction and equipment of our vessels of war
in the hands of our practical naval officers.
We hear Admiral Porter spoken Of on all hands
as the officer most eminently qualified to be
placed upon this duty. He appears to have
the confidence Of the President and the honor
able Secretary of the Navy, and much good
may come out of II. From evidences before
US Of the steam blunders Of the past eight years
1t would seem good to have an engineer-in- chief
now called from civil life to adapt our steam
navy as best he can to the wants of the nation,
giving us simplicity and durability of engines,
with no unnecessary weight or space occu-
pied, and based upon practical principles,
all of which in the engines Of our navy
for the past i've years appears to US to have
been ignored to carry out the peculiar ideas Of
the non-expanding chief Of the bureau Of our
steam navy. We do not want any more steam
failures; they are inexcusable in the advance
ment Of this great motor Mr.. Isherwood's
plans are all failures. We have certainly spent
unnecessary millions and sadly injured our
navy. He has certainly eliminated the value
of that unknown quantity (X) Of his, and we
cannot well afford to continue the search, as the
results thus far are nis for the nation and the
navy. So give us healthy, active civil steam
man, to repair, if possible, the damage done
the navy. We do not want any naval engineer
duly inocuiated with IsherwOodisms.

THE GERMANS MovrNG Our Wrsr.--The
German citizens Of Cincinnati--and there are
not O few Of them-are moving toward the
assertion Of their political rights and to head
of the politicians. This Is following in the
wake Of the Germans Of New York, and is q
movement which win accumulate strength
and volume as Il rolls onward. Our German
citizens as class are industrious, thrifty and
orderly, and their numbers--say nearly ten
millions -entitle them TO respect and con-
sideration At the hands Of politicians. If their
rights be NOT conceded they are in position
to demand them. As counterbalancing their
political power, Carl Schrz's election to the
United States Senate is merely drachm in
the scale. 00 tt fes rf

TnE PUBLIC GooD.-We have often won-
dered why our legislators did not try to make
their political fortunes by the Introduction of
laws beneficial to the people. Some one of
them seems to have this idea in his noddle, as
we hear Of q law to punish authorizations in
food and drinks. Doubtless this would be
here within the powers Of the Board of Health,
but such law would be good everywhere.
We believe it practicable. Such law can be
enforced. Witness the destruction just now
by the Board of Health Of large quantities Of
diseased pork. The same supervision is capa-
BILE of further extension.

The Tenure or once Act.

The Senate, persistently refusing to relin-
quish that control Of the President which it
holds in the law on the tenure of Office, now pro-
poses half measure In satisfaction of the
demand for the repeal of that law. Senators
begin to see that the law operates to their
prejudice-that it ties the President little too
tightly; = fact, that it serves him as an ample
shield against the opportunities of all those,
even Senator's who urge the filling of all the
offices with new men. Therefore they pro-
pose to put the law out of the way just long
enough to prevent the President covering him
self with its provisions, and then to let it come
into operation again to secure their places to
the friends of Senators whom they expect to
install meanwhile. This is the whole signif-
canoe of the proposition to suspend the obnox-
ious act until the next session of Congress.
This proposition should meet with no favor in
any quarter. We feel confident that the
House, representing truly and strongly the
wishes Of the country, will refuse to comply
with this mean haggling-this cheating down"
on its own proposal to repeal the law. But
should the House accept it Grant ought to
refuse any such truce. And he could occupy
before the country no more advantageous posi-
tion than that in which he would stand in
vetoing law that while it would relieve him
of temporary embarrassment would do this
at too great cost to the safety of our institu-
tions.

in hand, migrate to Dixie and become radical

In the rush for once at Washington there
are somewhere between i've and ten thousano
applicants for diplomatic place, each Of which
believes himself meritorious Of full mission,
and specially competent to conduct the coming
negotiations with England or Spain, which are
looked upon as the most important Of our
diplomatic labors. Under their able direction
the Alabama claims would soon melt in
friendly liquidation, or the Cuba question con-
solidate into the most tangible of satisfactory
realities. With the many-sidedness that is our
national characteristic each is ready to accept
the next best thing to that which he cannot
get, from first class mission to ''any old coat
to spare" AS to competency, who ever saw
full blooded office-seeker that was not ready
to accept and equal to the occasionp He will
undertake any work that promises pay, and
learn how to do 1t afterwards.
The missions to England and Spain arc
the ones there is most fuss over and the
most applicants for. They are supposed to
include the live questions of the day. We
can recommend to the President as
the best manner to settle these conflicting
applications to put the whole ten thousand
into big pepper-box, give them good shake,
and then take the one that comes first to hand.
When he has obtained the ideas of the gov
ernment as to what should be done send him
onhis mission with the intimation that the rea-
sons for our action will be given by the War
and Navy Departments. In this manner we
shall have no more trouble from the appli-
cants for foreign missions, nor with the ques-
tions they may be called upon to settle.
