KED.HOT SHOT.
Brick" POmeroy's Compliments to
the Tammany Thieves.

| from Pomeroys Democrat, Aug. 12thl
| If the Head of Sachems of Tammany
can manage to secure the nomination o1
their mar" for the Presidency, and then
see him elected. there will be inaugura-
ted the grandest administration of theft,
corruption, profigacy, extravaganza and
crime this country ever witnessed.
The ring of swindlers now holding
treacherous power in New York city un-
der the name of Democracy are doing
more to weaken the cause of Democracy
in the country at large than the entire
vote OF the city can atone for.
This is Tammany
This is the so-called Democratic au-
thority governing New York
This is the devils combination OF
thieves now running New York City and
State, not for the good of the many, but
for the enrichment of the few.
This is the monopoly of corruptionists
now proposing to buy the nomination OF
the next Democratic candidate for the
Presidency, that Washington may be
included-that some of the leading
thieves of our New York officials may be
transplanted to newer fields, but under
the same management
1t is for the Democracy of the country
to look to this-to send to the National
Convention of 1872 men who dare be
honest to taxpayers and to principles,
or there will be such defeat, such a
disruption and scattering of the Democ-
racy as NO power on earth will ever rally.
Honest men will not always endorse
corruption.
New York, the pig-pen of Tammany,
uhok 10
pluck enough to help, but the Democra-
dictation.
Look at New York
One hundred and one millions of dol
lars in debt
And what have the people to show for
it?
A steam yacht
An Americus Club House!
A race track
A Supreme Court owned by the Erie
Railway, with Hon. George Barnard toll
keeper
A palace for lying, slippery Dick Con-
office so poor that he could not qualify in
aire.
A fortune of ten millions for Peter Bis
marck Sweeney, who was a poor man
when first appointed City amberlain.
A palace for Hon. VIM. NJ. Tweed.
the likeliest man in the lot, who has only
made twenty-five millions of dollars out
of the city, by honesty and economy, in
ten years
A fortune of seven milliens for A.
Oakley Hall, the popinjay Mayor, who
squaks when his masters pull the string,
and pockets his percentage of the plunder
while angling for the nomination for
Governor
Six thousand harlots and nineteen hun
dred dens of infamy supported directly
from city stealings.
These are few of the exhibits for this
enormous debt which must be paid or
Iepudiated.

when they arrived at Castle Garden. and
would do ifit were not the interest OF
certain professional demangogues-for
tune-hunters-to infame their worse
passions by stimulating ideas and asso-
Citations which are alien to their duties
and ambitions as American citizens.
These good people may fancy it is for
the good of Haterldnd that they make
celebrations, and hold meetings as Ger
mans purely; but it is not. 1t is simply
for keeping the bread and butter i'll the
mouths of those leeches upon their race,
whose business or whose maintenance In
Office depends upon keeping the Ger
mans together as party or clan. There
are in this city, for instance, four Ger
man daily papers the existence of which
depends upon the fomenting of German
and not only German but an anti
Am erican-spirit. There are scores of
ward politicians who claim to be Germans
though some of them, like Schurz, are
turning out to be bogu5-and who, want
ing entirely the personal merit necessary
to elevate them to public station, con-
trive to band the people Of that nativity
together in a compact mass, in order
that they may be borne into office upon
their shoulders. 1t is, doubtless, in
view of the curse Of these classes that, in
addressing his fellow citizens Of German
birth, Senator Schurz, the truest Ger
man of them all, and feeling as much
pride as any in the recent brilliant ac-
chievement of German arms and German
intellect, advises them never to lose
sight Of their high duties and opportuni-
ties as American citizens, in the pride
which may be awakened by any triumphs
of the German spirit abroad. Says he +:
Nothing could be farther from mo than the idea
OF separate political organization of the Germans in
this rebublic. Here American citizens neither
more nor less; and German pride should inspire
here only to the determination to be counted to the
forests here and We should have separate aims.
Many other words does this private
German Amer lean utter of wise remon-
stranee against the Know Nothing spirit
which INSCRIPTIONS pot-house politicians
and hail Drained theorists hereabouts
are attempting to engender among those
who bear the German name. We have
no doubt that these words will have
weight, for there are among us no more
worthy citizens and no better material
for the construction of q mighty and
prosperous nation than the mass of our
German-born. people, provided they will
duty, and interest together, and of such
honest leaders as Carl Schurz, instead Of
those unprincipled advisers whose inter-
est lies only in misguiding the judgement
and inhaming the injurious passions of
those upon whose partisanship they
thrive. Chicago Tribune.

KENTUCKY. returns from "a
counties give Leslie, Democrat, ITO, ALB !;
Harlan, Republican, 74,l24; Leslie S
majority in these counties, ,319. Full
returns from the State will probably make
Leslie majority nearly 10000. In the
counties given, Leslie gains 5,39l on the
vote for Stevenson, and Harlan gains 5O,-
3l7 on the vote Of Baker, Republican,
in the last gubernatorial race, so that
Leslie s majority is less in those counties
than that of Stevenson, Democrat, in
1868. Notwithstanding the fact that Les
LESS total vote in the same counties is
greater than Stevenson's: The differenc
in the majorities is the increase in the
Republican vote since 1868, largely from
the colored population, who had not then
been enfranchised.

THE crisis in Indian affairs in this
country is evidently near at hand. What
to do with the Red Man is a question
which must be settled very soon. Re-
ports from the North West show that
the fighting Indians, driven from the
region traversed by the Pacific Railroad
are concentrated just south of the line of
the British possessions. Gen. Sheridan
seems to think they will need more in
timldation-more killing probably And
Gen. Hancock wants to know if the Gov
ernment is to feed these tribes crowded
up against the frontier. The present po-
licy of the Government would appear to
be to drive the Indians together where
they can exterminate each other.-M
y. Tribune.

Frauds of Officials.

Never, in our recollection, were the
Democrats so exercised over anything as
they are over the exposure of the glgan-
tic frauds Of the Tammany ring. These
frauds are on scale of magnitude never
equaled in this country. The thieves
had gone on so long adding to their i'll
gotten gains that they fancled they
would n.ver be exposed, and that the
people would never fully comprehend
the enormity of their rascallties; and now
when these rascalities are laid bare, not
only to the victims of them, but to the
whole country, the perpetrators OF them
are struck dumb, or at most can family
murmur that they are not solely respon-
sible, while their political friends seek
to parry the crushing force of the expos
ure, by crying out that there are az great
frauds elsewhere; that the politicians Of
the Republican party are stealing from
the Federal treasury. The puerllity of
this answer shows the utter demorallza-
ton of the thieves and their political
friends How much better for the in
terests Of the Democratic party, and how
much more to their own credit would il
be if the Democratic papers would bold
y denounce these frauds and their per-
petrators and demand their punishment,
instead of weakly trying to palate them!
When political organs and political lead
ers cease to consider it their duty to COW
er up the shortcomings and the rascal,
ties Of their partisans, and promptly call
for the punishment of all such delin-
quencies as soon as known, long stride
will have been taken toward the preven
ton of fraud in the transaction of official
business. 1t would amount almost to a
positive prevention of official fraud. The
refusal of political journals in most cas-
es to expose the frauds of their parts
ans, and their readiness to palate and
excuse them when they come to light,
tend to give swindl!ng sort of respecta-
bility and to lead many into it who would
not be thus led if they were sure Of re-
ceiving the denunciations Of friends as
well as foes 1t is mistaken idea that
anything is gained to party by Its
friends covering up its peccadlllos and
mistakes. Honesty in politics, as well
as in every thing else, is sure to pay In
the long run Wisconsin.

The FRENCH both people and Gov
ernment-are certainly pursuing very
unfortunate course toward Germany, pen
ding negotiations for the evacuation of
their territory by the German Army of
Occupation. The press has been grossly
abusive toward "the Goths;" as they
still delight to call their captors; and, in
stead of paying up the Indemnity specl-
fed in the Treaty of Peace, the Govern
ment, after liquidating that portion
which was really overdue, have continu-
ally begged the Germans to anticipate
the performance of their OVID obligations.
Impatient at this delay, the French
Government has actually forbidden the
products of Alsace to enter French mark
cts until the evacuation finally is COM
pleted. The P,ouinctul Correspondence,
seull-official organ of the German Gov
ernment. .says,in effect, that if the French
behave themselves and pay up the In
demnity, evacuation of French territory
will soon begin. The French SO far, In
their vanity and arrogance, have ap-
peared to lose sight altogether OF the
fact that they are a conquered people.
