The continued bombardment of Belfort by
the Germans, which is announced this morn
ing, is not a violation, as may be supposed
of the Armistice agreement. Nor can the de-
lays to the revictualing of Paris be construed
in the same way. BY special provls-
ions of the agreement between NJ.
Favre and Count Bismarck 1T was
arranged that military operations should con
tinue at Bclfort, and that Paris was not to be
revictualed until the disarmament was com
plcted. This has not been done as yet ana
proceeds slowly. Meantime the Germans can
not he fairly accused of disposition to cause
suffering for food in Paris, since 1t Is known
that they supplied the more urgent demands
from their own stores.

The clamOr of the Revenue Reformers, and
of the New Party men, (whO seem to have
given way to Mrs. Woodruff, the only genuine
leader of a real New Party we have lately had
opportunity to hOnOr,) having measurably
died ont at the West, the occasion seems
favorable for the cool survey Of the situation
which a thoroughly Informed correspondent
from Chicago offers, to-day, on our second
page. 1t will surprise none, save those who
have been msled by the noisy beating of pig
iron kettles, wherewith the Tariff de-
lection at Chicago was begun, that that
very city is itself Overwhelmingly in
favor of Protection to American Industry.
Western farmers, suffering now as they must
suffer always at the hands of the railroad
monoposts, so long as a thousand miles
separate the agricultural producers from the
manufacturing consumers are IN no mood for
aiding the spread of Free Trade delusons.
Revenue Reformers and Free Traders who
doubt this can readily satisfy themselves by
making up an issue and going before the
peODle on il.

When it was discovered that the charter Of
the Hamilton Land Improvement Company
in New-Jcrsey authorized the construction of
railroad which would interfere with the
Camden and Amboy monopoly, a resolution to
repeal the charter was introduced into the
Legislature, on the pretense that it was
:" unusual to grant land company power to
build railroad. We have already shown, by
several examples, that this is untrue; New
Jersey legislation is familiar with such grants,
and the leading spirits of Camden and Amboy
have themselves taken the benefit of them.
In 1868 the Squankum and Freehold MARI
Company mot the S. and +. Railroad Com
pany-which is different cOncern), was char
tered with pnwer TO build railroad in Mon
mouth County. connecting with the Freehold
and Jamesburg Agricultural Railroad. The
incorporators under this act were John ID.
Buckalew, John Z. Stockton. Robert +. Stock
ton, John &. Stevens, Richard f. Stevens, and
Isaac ;. Buckalew-with whose names we
believe the Camden and Amboy road is pretty

The dispatches report anxiety at Washing
the San Domingo Commissioners sailed. She
has been out for three weeks, though nine or
ten days usually suffice for the voyage. The
weather since her departure has been very
rough and though this fact cannot be looked
on as wholly encouraging, it may account for
the length of the voyage. 1t seems to have
been expected at Washington that her arrival
at SANTANA would be announced by telegraph
from Havana, but it is not certain, perhaps
not even probable, that vessel was found
ready at SANTANA to carry the news to Havana.

The Memphis appeal makes rather singular con-
fession 1t says: 8" 1t was the original purpose Of
the Ku-Klux, by their CHASTITY apparel, in which
they Iayersed the country TO appeal to negro super
stiton and neutrality-suspicious. at night. But Rad
icalism raised such an internal howl, and thieves at
length assuming the Ku-Klux garb, the organization
was abandonedp From this we infer that murder
ers manslaughterers and incendiaries consider mere
thieves to be an inferior grade of artists for if kill
ing and burning have not been the principal doings
of the KuKluxers, the newspapers of their yicinsge
have singularly slandered them. They may hayo
put OFF their ghastly apparel" but we should wei
come more satisfactory evidence that they have
abandoned their organization.

come up in the Senate tomorrow and VIC learn that
the Government printing-prcss at the Brooklyn

officers being the representatives Of American ars-
tocracy would scom TO take advantage of the acci-
dent of power by using Government property TO
benefit Onehalf Of the service at the expense OF the

Congress it may occur to some honorable gentleman
to ask q question OF so Oh this point.

the privilege Of making a speech on Woman Suffrage

perhaps this is only the beginning of much-needed

TIE DEMOCRATIC pLATFoRM.-Thc Savan-
nah Republican lays down Il good platform.
1t says:
1.-The South has no negro issue to make
in the coming contest. All her views are
national and conservative. We think we
know the tcmperan opinions nf her people
on that question, and, 1T The risk OF Il note
Of dissent from Il few extremists, we now
take occasion To emhodv them in the fol-
lowing propositions, which, We believe,
will meet the cordial assent of nincty-miue
out of every hundred Democrats in TIE
South:
|. We regard African slavery as abol-
ished, finally and forever.
>. Equal civil rights to every class OF
American citizens, without distinction.
5. While we hold that republican govern
ment-to be wise and safe-must rest upon
the virtue and intelligence Of the people,
and view with serious apprehension the
incorporation of Il large scrvile class Of UNI
lettered persons, wholly untitled by pre-
violS education, habit, or association, for
an intelligent use of the elective franchise,
with the voting population of the Union ;
vet, as suffrage without distinction of race,
color, or previous condition. has become
cngralted upon all the constitutions, State
as well as Federal, we accept the change It's
Law. and, repudiating all responsibility
therefor, will give it a fair trial, leaving to
the future to determine. by the light OF
experience, whether a continuance of the
system shall or shall not he safest and best
for the country.
These propositions, in our judgment,
embrace the views of the great body of ill.,
telligent southern men on the negro Ques-
ton, and if the Jacobin leaders can make
anything by taking issue with them, they
are welcome TO the victory.
