THAT great leader of the Radical
party, Wendell Phillips, is not yet sat
isfied with what has been done for
the darkies. He estimates that VIC
owe to the negroes one. seventh of oul
national wealth, or S, 600, ,O0o, 900, and
demands for them the $40 acres Of
land and mule" a years support, Q
furnished cottage, farm tools and free
schools for life. Some Of the Radical
don't seem to favor this modst de
mand, but they will come around il
time. Phillips has succeeded mos
admirably thus far In bringing th'
party up to his ideas, and there is no
the least use in their trying to go bacl
on him now. aalst za u

The social and political principles which
the New York EVENING Posi- has so long
and faithfully supported, it will continue
in the future to advocate. What these
principles are, our readers well know
they may be summed up in few words:
National Unity, State Independence, and
Individual Freedom and Equality of
Rights. The perpetuity and supremacy Ct
the Union, as the guaranty of our national
strength and glory; the independence of
the States, in all their local affairs, as the
guaranty against an oppressive and dan
gerous Capitalization the Freedom and
Equality of the Individual, without regard
to birth or accident, as the rightiul end of
all government, and the surest means cf
social development, personal happiness
and national progress.
These principles the EVENING Posi- will
support and recommend to the people,
without regard to party associations. We
shall never support any party in its de-
partures from them, and shall endeavor,
so far as our influence extends, to cause
them to be recognized by men of all par :

Efforts commenced yesterday to raise
the tug Nettie Jones, sunk by the steamer
Great Republic last winter at the foot of
Monroe street. A diving bell weighing
two tons was used. 1t was let down into
the water between two fatboats lashed
together The operation was quite simple,
yet novel and interesting to those who
never saw anything of the kind before.
The man who went down under the bell
wore only his ordinary clothing and
seemed quite unconcerned. AT the first
dive, about one hundred yards from the
shore, the water was found to be sixty
feet deep. The diver was able to remain
below from twenty-five to forty minutes,
and when on the bottom could easily
move the bell with his hand from place
to place, like a weight suspended by a
cord. The second time he went down, a
little farther down the river, he found the
water one hundred feet deep. He made
a third dive, but found no tug. The
search will be continued to-day, and will
no doubt be productive of interesting re-
suits. The bottom of the river is smooth
and hard, and when found the sunken
tug will easily be raised.
