Dom. Be In . Hurry, rammany.

There are reports aloat that the backbone
Of Tammany has been broken by Vesuvian
eruption in the State Senate. 1t has been
stated that ten democratic Senators have
swung off and hinged themselves to the repub-
Acans in matter affecting Governor Hoff-
mans nominations. Anti-Tammany journals
nave taken the cue, from this apparent disaf-
fsction and given their whippers-in OF the
Albany lobby and their hireling correspondents
instructions to keep up the fire and strive to
widen the rift. Now, there are but two or three
things which the Tammany Regency must re-
member in this connection. One is that it is
TOO early for them to commence row an
other is that the opposition radicals are in
trlnslcally too weak to make much of demon
stration in either house, and the more they
fuss and flutter the worse it will be for them in
che end. The Tammany Regency should not
be In too great hurry. It must not be too
grasping or too exacting. The reported
schism may no doubt be likened to the fire of
skirmish line-intended to draw out the
artillery Of the enemy and require him to de-
nne his position. In doing this Tammany does
not weaken itself, but rather gains opportunity,
like thoroughbred at the three-quarter on a
four mile race, to recover breath preparatory
to the struggle on the final stretch home
Briefly, it may be said that Tammany at this
moment is stronger and more united than ever,
and that when the time comes for it to mar
shal its forces its ranks will be found serried
and actuated by common impulse-namely,
to establish democratic court in the city of
washington in 1872 1t is time the ladies of
the democracy of the nation had chance of
this kind. But don't be in too much of a
hurry, Tammany Take things coolly.

Ratification and Ratlocinatiou

The Chicago Tribune says the estate of
New York having once ratified the amendment
and transmitted the ratification to Washington
her powers are exhausted, and when, including
hers, the requisite number of votes of States
are obtained, we believe the President
will declare the amendment ratified" It is
tne opinion of some of the best legal minds
In the country that the question Of the adop-
ton or rejection of the amendment is an open
one, like case in court, until final Judgment
Is rendered. The democrats of New York hold
this position, and until the President by public
proclamation declares the amendment to be
ratified any State can either reject or adopt it,
Or, even after having done one or the other,
reverse its decision at will until action in the
premises becomes manifestly futile. 1t is the
provision authorizing Congress to enforce the
amendment by appropriate legislation that
creates the most apprehension among its oppo-
nents. 1t is feared this power will be stretched
to an arbitrary extent, even to the appoint
ment by Congress of inspectors of elections in
The several States for candidates for Presiden-
Hal electors and members Of Congress, which
will be nothing but restoration of the military
ballot system in vogue during the war, by and
through which the votes of thousands of good
Union war democrats were never heard FROM
Furthermore, it is feared that these votes will
be counted, not where they may have been
polled, but under the eye of radical commit
tees fCongress, who can strike and repeat"
ct will. 1t is believed that this is part of the
radical programme-indeed, it has been openly
proclaimed in this city to be such by leading
New England radical Hence it is no wonder
democrats should become alarmed, and, whether
the amendment be finally adopted or not, to
conceive it necessary for them to warn the
faithful of the wiles and Vaccinations OF the
enemy. The Tammany Regency are neither
lazy nor asleep.
