A grave error with many is, that the Chinese
are, intellectually an inferior race Not only are
they Infinitely superior to the negro racs but
they compare. and to their advantage. ie the
magnitude Of their Inventions and discoveries
with the white race. In the use Of the compass,

hundred other practical treasures for the ag-
grandissment Of a nation. In brief, when Eu-
pean civilization began. they had been for q
thousand years great people. These truths
are generally ignored BY superficial observers
they point to the fact that the Chinese have not
progressed for ages. that they are condemned to
immObility: we will go further--that not only
have the chinese not progressed, but have i'm
measurably retrogaded; that at this day they
have, neither materially or intellectually, the
power they once welded. Industry, commerce,
sciences and arts, are wrapped in lethargy 50
profound, that it would lead US to doubt their
moral existence. In reviewing the cause Of this
AFFECTION, we can bat perceive that II is more
apparent than real. Their abasement has con-

The Cincinnati Enquirer says: ''The
Chicago Tribune labors through vast
expanse of figures to show that the Radi-
cal thieves in office during the eighteen
months preceding Grants Inauguration
stole $87, 900, 900 more than the thieves
who have been in office since that time
The statement, if true, simply proves the
necessity of frequent applications of the
principle of rotation in office. Grants
appointees have only lacked experience
and training. Many of the official thieves
of the period preceding March, 1869,
learned to steal during Lincoln's first term,
and acquiring increased skill daily, stole
enough to buy Congressional interest
sufficient to keep them in office
through the succeeding four years. 1t is
notorious that every man of them was
dyed in-the-wool Radical and the at
tempt to hold JohCson responsible for
their rob5eries is absurdly unfair, for a
special law was passed to tie his hands
and hold him powerless to remove even
the most audacious thieves in the whole
pack. The Tri6upe'S fact, if it is one,
is a most conclusive argument in favor of
speedy and thorough cleaning out of the
whole army of plunderers now in Office.
If eighty-seven millions could be saved by
dlsmissing one set of Radical officials and
filling their places with another, it is rea-
sonable to suppose that twice the amount
would be saved by clearing out the entire
tribe and securing the services of honest
and capable Democrats. We know that
the expenditures of the Government are
now four times what they were during the
reriod of Democratic ascendenCy.

FINANCIAL FRAUDS OF THE
GRANT ADMINISTER ALTON.

The Radical manipulators of the Treas
ury. Department are attempting great
fraud upon the people in the interest of
the Radical party, which is exposed by
the New York Express as follows:
l. In claiming that the reduction of
the taxes, which ought to have taken
place a year ago, to the amount of one
hundred millions, is their reduction-not
reduction in spite of Boutwell,, and
inspired by Democratic demands and
struggles.
2. In exaggerating these reductions,
which do not begin on the tariff till Jan.
l, 1871.
3. In disappearing the expenses of
the administration of the government by
cooked up Treasury statements which,
substantially, are untrue.
To begin, Mr.. Boutwell's Assistant
Secretary, Richardson, has put forth a
statement contrasting the net expenditures
under the last eighteen months of johnson
administration with the eighteen months
Grant administration, which foots up
thus:

As WE expected, says the Cincinnati
Enquirer, it turns out that the warm
sympathy which Mr.. Washburne our
Minister at Paris, has expressed in behalf
of the French Republic, is exceedingly
distasteful and repugnsnt to the feelings
of Secretary Hamilton Fish and Presi-
dent Ulysses S. Grant. These two dig
nitaries are not in favor of republics.
Their course in regard to Cuba abundant
ly proves that they have not pulsatioD
that is in favor of liberty either at home
or abroad. Between people struggling
for freedom and monarch who claims
to reign by Divine right they prefer the
monarch. A republic at Paris would
light the torch of liberty throughout Eu-
rope. Therefore it must be put out, and
Grant and Fish are perfectly willing that
it shall be done.
