we Y. are glad to soc the press copying
generally aud endorsing our yiews. It
isa sure sign Of its progress snd virtue,
The ImmcasRrahle Corruption or
Taminahy.

Al Ifishman, IN the early days of the
Irish Immigration, asked his employer
to write q letter from his dictation. He
wished to advise his brother to follow
his example, and leave the old country
for this favored land J; and among the in
ducements with which he urged his ad-
vice, was the assurance that be had nicat
for; dinner three times week "Wha
do you mean by that2" said tho tamanu-
ensis; ayou know you have meat soven
times q week for dinner, aud seven stimcs
for breakfast, if you want it, aAnd do
you suppose that Michael is such q fool
as to believe that ~ "No;a aud 1 am afraid
yhe will not believe what you have already
written, and which is quite all that /
dare to send him." i
AS We SEQ development after develop
mopt, como out upon tho rascality of
Tammany, as ono fraud after another is
made apparent, we almost think that the
men who have undertaken the task of
exposing these unparalleled robberics be.
gan on the. principle of our Irish friend,
aud did not dare to tell the whole at first
for fear of the public incredulity. 1t
seems to be oniy necessary to look at n
city account, to examine public work
or contract, III order to find Fraud 1t
seems probable that Of the vast revenues
Of New York, swollento imperial pro.
por.ious, about one-half has been stolen
to enable few Democrats to make gar
dcns on the Fifth Avenue, to drive Eve
thousand dollar liorscs, and to fasten the
solcs of their childrcn's boots with din-
monds. Men who have studied the
matter, and who have taken the advice
| of experts aud of witnesses familiar with
the operations of Tammany, place the
direct stcalings at $50, ,000, 900, and the
indirect at twice us much more, for the
last four years. This seems Incredible
the imasination ut first, refuses to take
in such figures. But when VIC see that
over SG.000000 has been pai... for plas
tcrins II court house, it is less difficult to
comprehend the height to which the au,
dacitv Of Tammany has risen Secure o!
meni &c those WHO assaulted the Orange
procession, any hundred of whom arc
good for thousand votes, the rulers OF
the ring have grown careless, and have
not only increased, without measure, tho
amount of. their stcalings, but have neg.
lectcd the most ordinary precautions
against detection. There has been u dc.
ianco Of public opinion in their opera
tions. They have said practically We
have bought our place; We own the city;
We will take onr. pleasure of its pluuder
And they will SO ON doing So In our
|
Judgment, Hall would be reelected in
New York to-day. Tammany holds the
machirery by which the elections arc
controlled, it issues the Illegal naturali-
cation papers, it organizes the repcatcrs,
it distributes the stolen money, and last
and not least of all, it controls the courts.
There is no remedy with the suffrage
that prevails there.

Delano. Cameron 8, Co.

Secretary Delano, Simon Cameron,
Ex-GovernerJoe Brown, (the patron
saint of Andersonyille), and others,
recently leased the State railroads of
Georgia. They associated with them
Alexander Ell. Stevens to give the con-
tract an. air of being home affair to
the Heorgiansy Its magnitude may
be judged from the fact that the prof
its arising from these roads will be
sufficient, orFwould have been under
honest management, to pay the expen-
ses of the State government. The
contract was1letc by Cow Bullock, of
pious fame, to Delano, Cameron and
their associates. And now Mr. Ste
phens)eomes out lin a letter idissolving
his connection with the contractors,
and asserting that since he first per-
mitted the use of his name, he has dis
covered that the whole thing is a stu
.pendous fraud upon the State of Geor-
gia, and, therefore, he returns his in
terest in the roads to the State, to be
used by it as it sees proper. !. j9i.
T ItIappears from Mr.. Stephens letter
that while Delano, Cameron 81 Co.,
get the road for $25,O0O per month,
other responsible parties bid $36,500
per month. Bullock's discrimination
in favor of his northern friends, there
fore, just costs the State of Georgia
$11, 800 per month, or S13S,0OO per an
mum. 1t is comforting reflection
that q Cabinet Minister, United
States Senator and the Governor of a
State should enter into o conspiracy
of this character. Itis about up to

"OuR future fellow-citizens of
San Domingo, as described in the re-
cent mass of documents laid before
Congress by the State Department., do
lnot present an appearance altogether
lovely. Among the papers sent in
WAS report made by Captain George
Il. Mcclellan. who visited that coun-
try in 1854 by direction of the Sccre-
tafy of War. The following extract
as to the condition of the people of
San Domingo is from this report:
"Thcrc is certainly little reason,
juding from what saw, to call Dos
minica' "white republic" The great
mass of the people are. negroes and
mulattoes. A general Incidence and
apathy appear to, reign. There are no
indications of either commercial or
agricultural prosperity. Money and
the comforts of life are very scarce.
Wages are lowy except when foreign
ers are the employers. The mass of
the people seem perfectly contented
to exc out their existence in cave
huts, trusting for support to their ba-
nanas and; cocoanuts.' sses1J s55f!.. .

ers do not annihilate them from the

II is now nearly SIX years since the
war ended, and during all that time
the Radicals have been longing and
Iaboring for the return of the halcyon
days of long ago; but they now as
sert that all their efforts in that di-
rection have been of no avail; that
the g oulrages," in the lately rebel
lious States still continue. and that
the South must be put through anoth-
er course Reconstruction, with what
results they can give no assurance.
Now, inasmuch as as they have
made a botched job of this whole
business, would II not be better for
them to step aside and let those who
in the days gone by made this the
!" best government" try their, hand
again at the work? The people are
evidently beginning to think SO.
THE Democrats have but ten MEM
bers of the present Senate of the
United States. In the next Senate,
after the 4th of March, there will be
eighteen-a gain of eight. When the
States are permitted TO exercise and
enjoy their constitutional right of free
elections uninfiuenced and uncon-
trolled by Federal bayonets, the pow
er of the Radicals will pass away and
the government will again be in the
cantrol of that party whichin the past
made it the best government the sun
ever shone upon"

IF Grant should not succeed in his
San Domingo scheme, it will not be
because he has failed to use all the
patronage and all the power at his
command. 1t appears that he has
sent a number of vessels of war to
overawe the black barbarians into
submission. that no formidable oppo-
sltien may appear TO ;he Grant-1'aez

The presence of greater part of
the North Atlantic squadron about
San BeIaiHgo. coupled with fhe an
nouneement that other vessels OF war
are to be ordered there would indi-
cate that President Grant is preparing
TO use physical force against the in
habitanis OF that island, If it should
be necessary, III order to compel their
acquiescenee in his annexation policy.
1t is we'll known that the Haytians
are bitterly opposed TO the annexa-
ton of San Domingo to the United
States, and they would doubtless be
disposed to aid the Doininicans in
forcible resistance TO the execution of
the scheme. Cabral draws support
for his operations against the usurper
Baez from Hayti, and it is to intimid-
ate the little black republic that a
large United States naval force is to
be concentrated in San Domingo wa
tiers. These naval movements involve
a great expense. and may yet precip-
itate us into war, the cost of which
no one can foretell. Perhaps such
result is what Grant is aiming at. If
so, he would do well to inform him
self upon the cost and result of the
last Spanish invasion of San Domin-
go before he illegally involves the
United States III conflict, without
law, justice, or public opinion to sup
port it. Even the Haytians, will fight
when driven to the wall, and nothing
could be better calculated to arouse
their belligerent feelings than an un-
necessary and menacing display of
naval ferces in all their ports. We
have already about the island the frig-
ate Sevein and the gunboats Swatara,
Nantasket, and Yantici while the

GENERAL 5HALLECK joins Governor
Hoffman and Geary in deHouncing
military usurpations. He says that
they do more harm than good at the
South. In, his report as commander
of that department he says: .aa3saf
81 Fl respectfully repeat the recon-
mendation of'my last annual report,
that military officers should not inter-
fere in local civil troubles unless when
called out in the manner prescribed
by law, snd that the requisitlon of rev.
enue officers should be accompanied
dy .affidavits or some other proof that
the case comes within the provisions
of the law authorizing or requiring
military interference. As the prac-
tice now is, the revenus officer is the
sole judge ofthe necessity of military
guards and escorts. X X x 1t may
be proper to remark in this place that
have been assured by Federal civil
officers that the use of troops in exc.
cutting Judicial processes, and enfofc-
ing the revenue and other civil laws,
seems to increase rather than dimin-
ish the apparent necessity for using
such force. The badly disposed be-
come more and more exasperated at
being coerced by force which they
think has been unconstitutionally en-
ployed against them, and tho better
disposed relax their efforts to punish
local crimes" urala dtt49 i.a.ti

question of suffrage belonged of right
to the. States. In, 1869, to force the
obnoxious Fifteenth Amendment up

elective franchise, to all persons but
might not go further. q In 1871, they
declare that all elections and registra-

the general government, which has
the. right to appoint its agents to- con-
