The trouble with Peace Societies has been
that they are too good for this world. We
cannot say that the memorial on behalf of the
Indians, sent up to Congress by the Universal
Peace Union, shows it to be any excep
tiOn to the rule. A very humane and generous
but likewise a very unwOrldy spirit pervades
it. Nobody can read it without acknowledging
the justice Of its strictures upon our dealings
with the Indians, or smiling at the innocence
of its practical suggestions. "What diabolical
"inhumanity and wanton indiscretion," it ex-
claims" destroying the Winter supplies Of the
"Apaches, at the very time when they are
"most needed !" "iInstead of erecting fortifca-
"ti0ns in their very faces we should relieve
their pressing necessities furnish them seeds,
agricultural implements, tools, and teachers

rough riders stopped in the midst of charge
Oh q party of painted Apache or Kiowa braves,

Of being right at the wrong time. We cannot
stop in the midst of a fierce fight with savages
to talk farming at them-much as the subject
of farming concerns them. We are into a war,

THE ROGERS MURDER.

The murder Of Mr.. Rogers in Twelftl-st.
furnishes o new illustration of the familiar
truth, that the boldest criminals are very often
those who longest escape detection. The as
sassin in this case seems to have taken no pre-
cautions whatever to avert discovery. He did
the deed in broad daylight, and quietly walked
away, and quite possibly he may never be
found. The clamOr which has been raised
against the police is unfair. Unless an officers
beat could be SO arranged that he could see
every part of it at once, any crime of course
could easily be committed without his obserya-
ton, were he never so vigilant. A moments
reflection will convince anybody who is IN the
habit of walking through the quieter streets OF
the city, at hours when few persons are astir,
that tho possibility of murder being done by
daylight, in such q place as East Iweifth-st,
and yet witnessed only by the criminals and
the victim, is not wonderful after all. Perhaps
in two cases out of three the occurrence would
chance to be seen by somebody; yet the chance
of it's not being seen is not so very remote nor
so very surprising.
That the murderer has not yet been traced
or at least arrested, notwithstanding the clue
which he left in the grasp of the murdered
man in the shape of q torn fragment OF his
coat, containing one of the pockets, is not diff
fcult to account for. The detection OF crmi-
nails is a matter of perseverance and industry,
TO be sure, but it is also in a great measure
the fruit of accident. The most successful de
tectives are not those who work the hardest,
but those who possess the happiest knack Of
taking advantage of accidents. Sometimes the
fortunate accident which might have led to. dis
covery never occurs, and then the crime goes un-
punished. In this Rogers case there are clues
which, we suppose, will lead to the arrest Of
the culprit before long; although the unwar-
rantable publication by The World of the name
Of one of the suspected persons has undoubt-
edly made the pursuit more difficult AT the
inquest, yesterday, very important testimony
was elected, much of which it would be impru-
dent to print. The man Talent, who has al
ready been mentioned in connection with the
affair, has been identified as one of the two
persons who were seen in the neighbOrhOOd
about the time of the murder; but it should
be remembered that Mr. Rogers declared on his
death-bed that he was not the assaant.
New-York tribune., 1869-01-07

A resolution presented by Senator Ferry of
Connecticut, and adopted yesterday, calls upon
the President to state tho authority under
which he issued the late Proclamation of Uni
versal Amnesty and Pardon. This is timely
and will aid in settling u very important ques-
tion relative to the extent of the Executive
power. The greater the Importance of Uni
yersal Amnesty the more important it must
be that any attempt to grant it should be
legal, and should bear its full fruit. While
the Constitution declares that the President
" shall have power to grant repricves and par
dons for oifenses against the United States
1t also declares that Congress shall have,
power to make all laws which shall be neces-
sary and proper for carrying into execution
all the powers Of the President, including this.
In pursuance of this power vested ia Congress
they have from time to time passed various
laws authorizing the President to grant amnesty
to certain classes of Rebels on certain con-
ditions. This implies that he would not have
the right without law to grant amnesty indis-
criminately to all offenders, nor are there any
precedcnts for such proclamations, except on
the part Of monarchs in whom the legislative
Is merged with the executive power. Either
these former acts Of CopgreSs were worthless

We advise the Police Captains and Sergeants
who are appealing for an increase of pay to be
content with their wages and practice economy.
The cost of our police force for New-YOrk
City is now 81 100000, which is quite as much
as our people can afford Thousands of good
men stand ready to take the place Of
every Captain, Sergeant, and patrolman at
the present rates and much below the
present rates. We are informed that
first-class men for patrol duty can be obtained
for 5000 per annum instead of the $1,000 now
paid. The taxes of this city are enormous
at least $25 for every man, woman and
child. Our local debt IS S50,00O,000. At
q meeting held the other day, Capt. jameson
remarked, in reference to the doubt as to
whether the increase could be pushed through
the Legislature without money, that last
winter before he left Albany he had to
send to his wife for $500, to bor
row $1,000 more from friend, and
to sign check for 81 900 more. We request
the Grand Jury to summon Capt. Jameson and
require him to state how he spent this money
at Albany. We have fallen upon evil times
when men holding high positions in the Police
Department talk of using money to get meas
ures through the Legislature. Let the Police
Commissioners take stand against this pro-
posed increase, lest if they fail to appear upon
the record against it they be considered as in
ifo fa,n

nLR HKLLSS ERRORS.

II is an oversight in the Reports both of the
Secretary of the Treasury and of Commissioner
Wells. that amid their multiplicity of facts
and figures they nowhere state the amounts OF
rovenue derived from our leading articles of
imnort senarately One of the first steps to-
ward ascertaiping how far our tariff may be
protective and wherein it cannot be, is to find
ont how much of it is levied on articles like
silks. champagnes, other foreign wines, bran
dies. foreign fruits, teas, coiiees, West India
goods, spices, diamonds, &C.. which we do not
produce, and cannot therefore protect, and
how much is levied on iron, salt paper, leather
glass and their wares which we do produce and
can protect. Had Mr.. Wells made this cacula-
ton he would not have charged that the trainers
of our tariff did not make it mainly with
view to revenue-still less that its rates were
inspired by the purpose to afford indlscrmnate
protection to all kinds of American productions;
for he would have found that most OF them were
imposed upon articles wherein protection Is
not possible, and that in many instances where
it would be'pOssible the present taIliiS are
imposed for revenue only. In tho absence of
any statement by Mr.. Wells of the
actual amounts collected from each ar
ticle. we have taken the quantities and
volues of orr dutiable imports as stated by the
Secretary of the Treasury, and calculated upon
tbem ms nearly as may be the duties which
would be payable under our present tariff.
The following schedule shows the result OF
this calculation of the duties payable on those
kinds of Imports which we cannot produce, and
to which, therefore, the principle of Protection
has no application other than to demand that
they be as low rs possible We include sugar
and molasses in this statement, because our
Louisiana product and our maple syrup and
sugars are so inadequate to supply the demand
that these are as necessarily articles of import

New-York tribune., 1869-01-07

We have at last the authentic official state
ments of reputable officers of the army con-
cern;ng the alleged negro insurrection on the
Ogeecbee, near Savannah. For a week or more
we have been treated to dispatches announcing
n terrible state of affairs in that whole coun-
try-whtes fleeing for their lives-women and
children left behind at the mercy OF 'he insur-
gents-citzens almost afraid to venture beyond
the city limits-pilage- -rapine-ruin. We now
know precisely what these "parlous words
mean, in the months of the Savannah news
mOngers. Gen. Sibley tells us that he went
ont to see about it, found the negroes very
much frightened, and armed with three mus
kets and one bayonet on a stick!
The whole trouble is a quarrel between the
owners of two plantations and the negroes in
their employment during the past year. The
negroes claimed that they were not properly
paid, and seized upon part of the crop. The
planters secured warrants for their arrest but
the Sheriff was afraid to serve them, got fright
ened and ran off. The next time he went out
with a posse of 100 men, fired on a boy whom
they saw, and shot him through the leg; fired
on two or three frightened negroes that were
running of, and then went back again. There
upon the people Of Savannah went to work
armng and drilling, under generals and colon
els of mighty renOwn, ana the sensational dis
patches about negro insurrection were sent
over the country. Anything more purely far
cical than the facts on which these were based,
we have never had, in the whole history of silly
alarms about negro instructions.
