Editors and Printers in Congress,

Globe, men amDlti0us UO no'u rcatS h
Congress have regarded tho profession OF
law as o stopping-stono tn the higher
thing desired, y The charge has often been
brought against tho present Congress that
II contains too many lawyers for the best
interests Of the people. We believe IL
may re said that moro prominent men in
both houses Of Congress have at some
time or other boon editors or printers,
than members of any other profession.
The craft was never In such luck, from
tho Vice President down, since tho days
eff Ben. Franklin, as 1t Is to-day. In the
Senate we find the presiding officer, Col.
fax, rs everybody knows, o journeyman
printer and editor. Mr.. Abbott OF North
Carolina, has edited the Manchester (New
Hampshire) American and the Boston
Atlas; Anthony, Of Rhode Island. for
many years edited the Providence Jour
nal; Brownlow of TENNESSEE, edited tho
Knoxville Whig for thirty years; Casser-
ly of California, edited o daily In San
Francisco, and was tho state printer for a
wear; Cameron, Of Pennsylvania, was .
iourneyman printer and has edited ps.

APRoPos of the woman suffrage
question, matron in Joliet, illinois,
gives "a piece of her mind" and, as
we believe in "fair play" we must
.givelthe old lady chance: :nHf
fl just don't believe in these new
women notions. I have raised six
boys; four of them vote now, and the
Others will soon be old enough Then
Il will have six votes. Now these
good-for-nothing women, who have
fooled their time away, and never
raised a single boy come around and
want-every woman to vote for herself.
IL don't believe in such nonsense! 1
have raised my six boys, and am GO
ing to have every one vote for me
Those women who @ GO Ieetaring
around the country, instead of raising
boys, have no business to 9Eoteiahy-
way. And when they say that they
arc just as goodas Lam, and have a
right to vote themselves, if they have
no boys to do so for them, itiso not
true. If they are as smart asI am,
why did they not raise some boys to
vote for them ? I tell You, 1ldoInot
intend to be! cheated out of my six
votes, by any such good-for-nothing
folks. ! guess the worldiwould. come
to a pretty pass in short time, if athe
women all took to goin' round lectur-
ing on wimmin's rights, instead of
raising boys.

THE Albany Arqtss presents the tax
payers of the country with this most
agreeable calculation, by which they
can more fully comprehend the enor-
nifty of the national debt which op-
presses them: "The heart is six
inches and four-tenths in diameter,
and beats seventy times per minute,
$4,000 times per hour, 10O,S00 per day.
&c, ,772, 900 times per year, and $685.
10000 times in three score and ten.-
The debt of the country resulting
from the war being twenty-five hum
dred millions Of dollars, we can there
fore make o comparison OF estimate
by hearts beats of its stupendousness.
Thus, were child capable at birth of
commencing to pay OF count out q
dollar with every beat of his heart
and continue counting day and night,
without intermission, until exhaus-
ton, and three score years and ten
brought the welcome grave in view,
he would have only counted tho total
sum by units"

RAvENNA, Q. THURSDAY. JUNE aa. 1870 &

continent for nearly fifty years, which
has been reiterated by every President
who filed the chair of State since
President Monroe, and the mere
weight of which drove thirty thou
sand French bayonets out of Mexico,
on the termination of our war, is
rather an uncertain doctrine; and he
proposes to make it what he calls ga
fixed policy" by the payment of a
million and half of money to San
Domingo, under the public cognizance
Iof the civilized world. This sum, so
paid, General Grant thinks will GO fix"
the Monroe Doctrine, and he will
then be regarded, with no offence to
Mr.. Monroe) as the real basis, if not
the architect of the Monroe Doctrine
himself. Great doctrines, like that
which forbids any further colonization
or settlement upon this continent, by
foreign princes, are not often es-
htablished by the mere payment of
money; and if that is the only pro-
t.cess which General Grant can con-
ceive of to prevent foreign invasion,
upon this continent and its append
ages, we think we had better make up
our minds to look up another candi-
date for President as soon as possible.
We therefore appeal from General
Grant to the Republican party, and
inquire if what we have detailed as
portions of his policy is to be endorsed
by them. 1t is important, at any rate
for those of us who came into the
Republican party from pure love of
country in 1861, to know whether we
are to lose the crowning glory of the
war in our right to protect our citi-
zens from cold-blooded murder when
taken captive by a barbarous neigh
Dor? Whether this Republic can ever
lose all interest in its children under
any circumstances whatever, and
whether our right as the Power Para
mount upon this continent, is to be
limited below that of all Powers Par
amount within their own neighbor-
hoods, by the payment or non-pay-
ment of mere sums of money? In our
opinion. these questions are all to be
answered in the negative; and, so far
Fas the purchase of San Domingo is
concerned, we do not regard it as a
matter of the slightest moment, wheth-
er we buy it or not. When Grant and
Lee met under the apple tree at APP
pomatox, Cuba, San Domingo, and the
entire West India Islands became the
property of the United States. No
foreign power would now venture to
purchase San Domingo any more than
the United States would attempt to
buy any little island in the Baltic, un-
der the nose of Russia. There would
be no purchase. because no title in it.

The PRESIDENTS message to the Sen
fateiesr siae Dominican treaty is a very
silly document. Its principal argu-
ments in support of the annexation of
st. Domingo are the following:
1. That it will tend to the extirpa-
ton of slavery.
t9T 2. That st. Domingo is weak
power.
8. That if we don't take st. Do
mingo, some European power will.
4. That it commands the Caribbean
Sea. .i'a iz5i.fi-E
5. That it possesses the richest soil,
the best and most capacious harbors,
the most salubrious climate, and the
most valuable products of forest,
mine, and soil, of all the West India
| Islands. li-
6. That we must now pass through
foreign countries to go from Georgia
to the west coast of Florida; and the
inference is that if we had st. Domin-
go we need not. But this part of the
message cannot be adequately ex-
pressed in any language but the Pres
ident's own. We quote, then, as fol-
lows, la
"Since we must, as it were, pass
through foreign countries to get by
sea from Georgia to the west coast OF
Florida, st. Domingo, with stable
government under which her immense
resources can be developed, will give
remunerative wages to tens of thou
sands of laborers not now upon the
Island"
II. That it will make slavery insup-
portable in Cuba. That it will, &C.,
&C., &C., with q spread-eagle perora-
ton.
To the above arguments, taking
them in their order, we make the fol-
lowing answers
!. Slavery was extirpated in st.
Domingo long before it was abolished
in the United States.
2. This is highwayman's argu-
ment. aD
8. This is bugbear created for the
occasion, and is totally without sup
port. England and France have to.
day more West India colonies than
they want. El--
4. This is o geographical error.-
Cuba is west of st. Domingo, not
east; and Cape st. Nicholas is in Hay
tt, not in st. Domingo.
B. st. Domingo contains no better
harbors or soil, not more mineral re-
sources, than Cuba. Exports from
ST. Domingo are less than 100000 a
year. The products of Cuban indus
try i'll towns and country exceed in
value SsO0,0O0,000 year.
6, This needs no remark,
I Z. IF slavery, whose extirpation
the President SO vehemently desires,
still exists in Cuba and Porto Rico, he
is to blame for it. Instead of assist
ing the patriots who proclaimed eman-
cipation, he has actively assisted Span
iards to maintain tho cursed institp-
ton. .;z5irr t...
This st. Domingo annexation bust
ness will only be remembered in his
tory as an impudent fraud. in which
a well-meaning but indolent and
weak President allowed himself to be
entangled.-Nev York San, (Republi.

Never forsake friend. When en-
