The sympathies of youth don't get much ofa show

whipping post. and were taken out before crowd.

impressive. tn victims were obliged to witness the
torture inflicted upon each other. The local prlnt

method gravely recommends it to other communi-

outrage. The whpper. with arms stripped Dare
receives tho lads from the Sheriff, and, deXrouSly
swinging his "cat" over his head, brings 1t down

bound TO a wooden frame. Each LASH says the

We have a painful report from Texas of a
conflict between Mexican and United States
soldiers. resulting in the killing of forty Of
the latter. The Mexicans were pursuing In
dians. and had crossed the boundary line into
New Mexico, when the garrison of Fort Good
win marched out to oppose their inroad-the
account says to protect the Indians. fight
ensued with the result above indicated. We
trust, and indeed believe that the statement
is greatly exaggerated, and that the result was
not as bloody as represented. The affair, in
any aspect, is serious, as possibly leading
TO grave complications with the Mexican

Arrests on false charges and forged warrants
are of too common occurrence IN tins city OF
notoriously corrupt civil administration to
leave any doubt of the truth of the story OF
the fleeced sailor mentioned in our columns
this morning But it is hardly credible that
the officials of Ludlow-st. Jail, the prison OF
New-YOrk County, and the one IN winch
offenders against United States laws are con-
fined, could have received prisoner from
bogus officers on a forged warrant without
question, and returned him next morning to
the same persons without suspicion We are
aware that irregularities are quite frequent IN
this institution, but it is incumbent on the
Sheriff TO explain how such gross negligence
on the part of his subordinates as we have
indicated in this case is possible. And lie
should take special care TO show that it was
negligence, not corruption, which permitted the
thieves to imprisOn the honest man.

Comments by The Tribune.
What is suggested is not a "nO-party party"
but party based on definite ideas and seek
ing to achieve definite ends. 1t differs from
existing parties mainly in that devotion to its
purposes is nowise inconsistent with zeal and
efficiency in the support of Republicans or
Democrats for President, Congress, &c.
Now, the National parties cannot achieve
Municipal Reform, because each Of chem has
another object which it deems paramount
namely, the triumph of its ideas and policy in
National affairs. Their absorption in this
makes them careless if not complasent in re-
gard to Municipal prohigacy. Give us an or
ganizatiOn which especially contemplates Mu-
nicipal Reform, and it will serve to draw at
tcntion to the subject, and, by concentrating
public interest on Municipal abuses, open the
way for their reform.

Deputy Marshals were present at every poll,
while Federal soldiers stood ready to back
them if their authority had been deiied or
their efforts resisted. You told us, day after

tended to overawe and intmidate Democratic
electors, so as to deter them from voting, and
thus secure a Republican triumph in the State.
We daily insisted that the truth was other
wisc-that all this Federal enginery was only
designed to prevent n repetition of the mon
strous Democratic frauds, by fraudulent Natu-
ralizatons, by repeating, and false counting,
which cheated Grant and COfax out of the
vote of this State in 'GS, and which were re-
newed in 1869.
Which of us was right7 What Democrat
was either deferred from voting once, if legally
entitled to- vote, or constrained to vote az he
would have chosen not to do, by "Federal

Once and again have we made this inquiry,
and silence is your only answer. If your
charges of last year are thus disprovcd, why
should those of this year be belevedf We
await your reply.
III. Your Democrats did in '68 carry LOuisi
ana and Georgia for Seymour and Blair by
terrorizing their Republican voters into voting
for those candidates or not voting at all.
You know this to be certainly true with re-
gard to Louisiana, and probably true with re-
gard TO Georgia. The returns OF their vote
by counties prove this beyond pcradventure.
No person who comprehends election returns
