and the fourteenth amendment Of the Con.
stitution were oontrived or assessed for very
good ends; wholly to the end of guarding
tho stsas (union) against any posslbls dan
ger Of another attempt at rebellion and also
against the certain Injurious effects Of re-
essablishing tbs exploded IDEAS Of the slavery
era In ascendency throughout the South.
They were not designed to oppress any por-
tion Of the community but rather TO relieve
nigh half the people Of the South from the
possibility Of being again oppressed. Wise
statesmanship will conine them to their
legitimate purpose. II so confined In their
operation, they will immensely strengthen
the cause Of enlightened liberalism. II
abused-if made the mere pretcnce OF oppres-
sion, reculation upon the people of any sec
tlon Of the Union and the establishment OF
On oligarchy Of adventures, having little
substantial interest In the society they assume
to rule above and beyond the restrictions Of
law-they may endanger the supremacy Of
the Republican party everywhere In the end.
DRAW WISDOM FROM TIE PAST.
The writer Of these letters sincerely be-
lleves that the policy Of the Republican party
Is the best conceivable for oil the interests Of
all the people Of the United States. That 1t
will quickest and most advance popular In
telligence, popular rights, and the material
prosperity Of all, without regard to race or
color. Yet he breads, beyond expression, the
possibility that In the pursuit Of the greatest
good TO the greatest lumber, false steps may
be taken, such as the history Of the world
proves have often been taken by other peo-
pies In other climes and ages. Hell Is paved
with good Intentions. The greatest calami-
tics that have occurred to enlightened and
free nations have had their origin In mistaken
steps to further popular rights and popular
interests, by which both have been COM
mitted 10 men who have proved incompetent
dishonest, selfish, and tyrannical. Every
despotism that has oppressed an enlightened
people was built up through the opportuui-
ties growing out Of incautlously committing
popular liberties to the unrestrained liccnce
Of mon claiming TO be more liberal, wiser,
and more patriotic than their fellows.
II will never do TO replace the odious oil
garchy that involved the South and the whole
United States In the late disastrous rebellion
with another equally as irresponsible to wise
laws, that shall protect the rights, privileges
property Of all alike. soloug as any danger
remains anywhere in the South that her late
oligarchy may regain power, It is necessary
to guard against Ii by resumptuary laws and
military power. But where there no longer
exists even a shadow Of such danger, to de-
privc ulnety-fve per centum Of the whites Of
a State of civil and political rights, Is simply
to prostitute the principles of the Republican
party to work out the purposes of odious anti.
American oppression and despotism as surely
as monstrous evils were perpetrated by the
Spanish inquisition in the holy name of the
God Of equal justice and universal love and
| mercy

We Hnd In the 7rIbuR. an interesting letter
from Madrid, under date Of January 10,
giving a pretty full account of the general
election In Spain. This election was con-
Quoted upon the basis Of universal suffrage,
and thus very many more persons have
spoken In defence Of their principles than
were formerly allowed TO record their views
by the ballot. In 1865 the number Of persons
voting was three hundred thousand; at the
recent election more thnn three million spoke
through the ballot-box.
This correspondent declares, however, that
the Government exercised an undue inau.
ence over the voting, and thus, In many
places, prevented free expression of popu-
lar opinion. This writer does not give the
result Of the election, but 1t has been given
out by monarchical authority that eighty
Republicans have been elected. Among those
elected ore several leading men Of the party,
such as Orense, Garrido and CASTELAR,. We
may be permitted to hope that notwthstand-
Ing the reaction in this country republlcanism
will still have strong hold upon the public
mind and opinion Of Spain.
A cable dispatch from Madrid Informs us
that the Provisional Government will, on the
assembling Of the Cortes, submit to 1t con-
stitution, the leading feature of which will
be the doO'itioH Of ''avery throughout n, Span
ISL doRinioHs.
So we see that whether the rebellion In
Cuba Is success or not, slavery there is
doomed. "The world moves" and the time
is not distant when the sun will neither rise
nor set upon slave anywhere In Christeu
dom. May that glad day come on apace.

His administration will be Intensely an.
tagonized by all the rings. If Congress de-
liberately sacrifices his policy of greater
economy at the behest Of the railroad ring,
they may rely on 1t that q coalition will be
consummated, embracing all the several rings
wanting special favors from the Government
(including the whisky ring) to the end Of
controlling the legislation OF the next Con-
gress and brow-beating Grant's adRiuistra-
ton. There Is more danger to the future of
the country in the possibility Of the success
OF the omnibus railroad bill-cxpected to be
shortly reported-than In aught else to be
legislated on this winter.

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,.

Mr.. Julian presented memorial of q con-
yention from all parts Of New England In
favor Of granting the right Of suffrage to
women. Referred to Judiciary Committee.
1t recltes In q preamble that all human
beings are created equal, aud that women
are deprived Of their natural equality, which
Is given to all men. II is signed by James
Freeman Clarke, president, and Charles X.
Whipple and George II. Vibbert, secretaries.
A large number of private bills, reported
from the Military Committee, were disposed
Of.
Mr.. Ella, rising to a privileged question,
referred to an assault made yesterday in the
Patent Office building by Mr.. Dempsey, Of
the firm Of Dempsey O. o'Toole, on Mr..
Smauel A. Duncan, one Of the witnesses cr-
amined before the Committee on Printing In
relation to the stationery contract with the
Interior Department, and asked leave 10 In
troduce Joint resolution recitlng the fact,
stating that there was q good reason TO be-
lieye that the same contractors had practiced
frauds In the supplies TO the Post 0ficc De-
partment, and directing the Postmaster Gen
eral and all other heads Of departments to
rescind all contracts with that firm.
Mr.. Kerr objected to the Introduction of
the Joint resolution, because there was no
evidence before the House 10 sustain 1t.
The House at O'Clock went into Commit
tee Of the Whole (Mr. Ferry In the chair
and resumed the consideration Of the army
appropriation bill.
Mr.. Blaine, who has charge of the bill,
stated that In view of the sentiment of the
House, as expressed In the discussion yester-
day, he had been authorized TO propose
amendments to the bill, which would reduce
the amount ten millions Of dollars.
A discussion sprung up between Messrs.
Eldridge and Blaine on tho subject Of the
purchase Of Ford's theatre, In the city of
Washington.
Mr.. Blaine spoke Of the building as the
place where the greatest tragedy Of modern
times took place, and remarked that II was
very unRraclous on the part Of the gentle
man from Wisconsin to find fault with the
Secretary Of War because the place where
that great tragedy had been enacted had not
been left open as a place OF vulgar amuse-
ment. Did the gentleman moan that
Mr.. Eldridge. No, sir. Will the gentle
man allow me to state what do mean
Mr.. Blaine. II was to rescue 1t from that
degradation that the Secretary Of War took
II into his control, and that Congress after
wards gave him money TO vest the property
In the United States.
Mr.. Eldridge. wish TO state that In
tended to make no charge other than this;
that the Secretary Of War, as ! am advised,
took possession OF that building without au-
thority OF law.
Mr.. Blaine. Then he did right.

me whether approved II or not. ! answer
him that do not approve 1t. / approve no

H- An interesting article in Lippincott
for November, sumed up the question Of
legal interference in the hours of labor
with the sensible conclusion that the hour
is the only proper unit of time in relation
to services, because it is definite and in
variable quantity, while the day, as applied
to labor, is underlined and constant occa-
sion for disagreement.
