THERE is trouble among the negroes
OF the National Capital. They are al
ready divided into two classrs, one CON-
prising a few rich and exclusive indi-
viduals and the other embracing "the
common run of niggers." A Washing

HERE is what agood Republican pa
per in Pittsburgh says of the dirty
tricks Of its own party at home and in
New York: In New York city certain
Republican leaders coalesced with the
Tammany Ring for a portion of the
spoils and the party there has gone to
the dogs. The transaction was in open
daylight, and by some is regarded as
something to boast OF. Here, however,
the machine leaders go for the spoils
in q different way, heading of the peo-
pie being their greatest necessity To
accomplish this, they convene the
meetings Of the Central Committee in
secret and arrange their plans in pri-
vate. \ New York paper wants to
know if things have come TO such a
pass there that the leaders can sell out
the party to Tammany? Here the
question is, have things come to such a
pass that the party can be managed in
secret in the expectation that the Re
publican masses will run with the ma
chine blindfolded."
The Republican party will run with
the machine in any way, but they can
run long.

is soon to be affianced Out of a dozen
candidates for the rather pleasant posi-,

Archduchess GIsELA of Austria, daugh-
ter of the Emperor FRANCIS JOSEPH, is
the most likely ta be selected She is
about the same age as the yonng
Frenchman, and is said to be pretty.
But as neither of them is of constitu-
tional manageable age. and as crowns
in France are not always hereditary, the
marriage between these children had
better be postponed for some time

Government by the People cannot await the
adjustment of their quarrels.
VII When Won 90 to the bottom OF the

Government by the People cannot await the
adjustment of their quarrels.
VII. When you 90 to the bottom OF the
case you find the argument for further Recon-
struction amounting to just, this: IF you
"allow the people of Georgia to elect new
"rulcrs. they won't elect u.s." We presume that
is so. But we cannot forever keep tic poy
ont of the water because he has not learned to
swim. The time must come when Oeorgia
will be governed as her people shall see h'.
Then why not nowl If any more kepel
antics are cut up, have we not the freSiueh''
the Army, and Congress, ready To correct
theml When can we safely let Georgia VOle'
if not now
VIII. We protest against the hang-back poicy
that it throws an excessive, perlous LOAD upon
tbe Republicans of the North. Rebel caperS do
us no harm; on the contrary, they help MS.
We carried the country in 1866 largely on the
strength of the Rebel massacre in Ncw-Or-
leans. The Georgia Rebels helped us I'M
mensely in 1868. If they want to run their
heads against stone wall in 1870, they ought
to have chance. And they are quite as likely
TO do il in Georgia as anywhere else.
TX. Georgia is Republican to-day. She can be
carried Republican more easily than New-lor
or Ncw-Jcrsey, both which we expect to carry
next Fail. If the Republicans OF Georgia see
fit to waste their strength in fighting each
other and let their State 90 by default, they
deserve no better government than this VIII
give them.
Y. Finally, let us have done with RccOnstruc-
ton The country is tired and sick OF it. 80 olong
as any State is held in allegiance, it will he plauS-
IDLY urged that the Republicans are afraid to trust
the People. Let us give every state to herself,
and then punish any who violate or defy the
guarantees of public and personal rights now
firmly imbcdded in the Constitution. LET US
HAVE PEACE!
New-York tribune., 1870-04-18

We hope it will be spent for that ana
not 'as we fear, for increasing the Demo-
cratic vote. The swindles as to the suburban
fire companies, the Twenty -third-st. haiI-
road and assessments are of considerable I'M
portance Does any one believe that
100000 can be honestly, usefully, or neces-
sarily expended upon the fire telegraph
If they do, their stock of credullty Is
unusually great. A new Normal School
building is authorized north of Fortieth-st,
which means in Reservoir Square, we presume.
Mr.. Tweed is to cause water-meters OF
approved pattern and suitable for the purpose
TO be put in all places where CrOton water Is
used This is desirable improvement, but 1t
opens the way for a big job and we have MT
so much confidence in the ability of the DemOc-
racy in measuring water as we have as to some
stronger liquids OF the enormous powers
given to the new Board of Docks, we now
simply call attention 10 the fact that the
exterior line beyond which no wharf is to
be built, is entirely destroyed, though it was
established for the preservation OF the harDOr
mt great expense and with the assistance oil
the highest scientific ability IN the country.
In the way of salaries, Mr. Dennis Burns,
being member of the Legislature has taken
care that the salary of the Mechanics Lien
Clerk in the County Clerks Office is increased,
and that Clerk is Dennis Burns. The Clerks
of the Court of Common Pleas all have their
salaries raised. The Warden of the City
Prison has no cause to complain, and Senator
and Chamberlain John j. Bradley gets his pay
for four years salary as President OF the
Croton Aqueduct Board, during which period
some one else performed the duties and also
drew the salary, while various Browns, COlgans,
and others are cared for in similar ways. The
fitting up of various offices, such as the Con-
trollcrs, Tax COMMISSIONER DistrictAttOr-
ney's and others are provided for at
enormous rates, the former taking $4,000 and
the others $4,000 besides a similar amount
last year. and $4,000 respectively.
Such are few of the items that orr mas
ters at Albany have SO far let us know that
they have decided to impose upon us. How
much these will be increased, and what new
ones will be added before (or after the bills
reach the Secretary OF States Office we cannot
undertake to say. We presume that in the AS
sembly the previous question will be applied
10 cut off any hostile amendments, and that III
the Senate other equally eilicacOus means
will be found After the Charter, we can
believe in anything. Still, if our friends in
the two Houses are resOlute and really
mean it, they can get members on the record
on motions to strike out the worst of these
swindles, such as the suburban Fire Com
panies, the Twcnty-third-st. Railway, and
others, and especially on motion adding
section repeating the Sectarian School Appro-
priation in last years tax levy. Let us have
a square vote in both Houses on this subject
and at least make up a record OH which to
appeal 20 the people.
New-York tribune., 1870-04-18

Napoleon has written a letter for the in
struction of his people, as to the meaning of
the Plebiscite. Would it not be more to the
point to write them a letter explanatory of
the functions of his High Court Of Justice
The formula of the Plebiscite will be, substan-
tally, "Do the people desire reforms in 1870
" which assure liberty under guaranty of the
Imperial dynasty?" A more pertinent and
specific question would be: care the peo-
"ple willing that their journalists shall be
kept in Jail, while a murderous Prince
goes free ?" All these questions the people
of France or as many of them as are wise
enough, will ask themselves 1t is probable
that a majority will be reported in favor Of
the Empire; but after the lessons of the last
elections, we cannot doubt that the Liberal mi
nority will be emphatic and formidable. For
Napoleon the Plebiscite is another well-marked
step-but, like his every step at this period Of
his rule, it is a risk.
