GENERAL PORTERs RESIGNATION.

GENERAL POhTElbS RESIGNATION.
General Porter has, II seems, been offered
the Vice presidency Of the Pullman Palace
Car Company, and holds the matter under
udviscment. Ills own lnclluations prompt
him TO accept the position, but the President
desires to retain him In the post Of honor and
confidence which, for nearly four years, he
has filed with so much honor and credit "
himself and so much advantage to the cOun-
try. lie Is Cminently qualified 10 discharge
the duties Of the management Of this large
and important corporation. His great ex-
Ccutivo ability and experience In the army
combine TO render his selection an exceed
lngly judicious one. During the war he first
attracted the attention Of General Grant by
his superb work in the reorganization Of the
ordinance branch Of the armies Of the Potomac
and the Cumberland, which, until he was
placed In charge, had been without order or
system.
Since General Porter was 30 slgnally hon
Ored by the President there has been scarcely
man In the country who has been so viliHed
and abused. During the last six months par
tlcularly, the Liberal and Democratic organs
have poured out upon him copiOus columns Of
abuse. lie has been accused Of completely In
all manner of deep and dark deslgnsi Of shar-
Ing In the profits Of the general order business,
San Domingo, the New York custOm-huuse,
and Heaven knows what, Honorable SCna-
tors and Representatives have not hesltatod
to attack him on the floors Of Congress, and
to summon him before investigating commit
tees. And here is the end Of it all. General
Porter voluntarily rctlTcs from the public ser
vice to assume virtually the entire control OF a
business that amounts to over twelve millions
Of dollars year, to accept position which Is
ono of the most important occupied by
young man In this country. We scarcely
wonder that he Is anxious to retire from the
service Of the Government lie has given
some Of tho best years Of his life to his cOuu-
try, and obtained from II In return little more
than small pay and constant abuse and mis-
His case, II Is true, differs u
no essential respect from that Of thousand
others, but his retirement may serve to point
u moral

TnE Vicksburg (Miss) Times says that the
social ostraclsm which obtains In that State
hiudcn immigration and that the same Is
true Of nearly the entire South. II declares
that Southern ladies who have married
Northern gentlemen, especially II their hus-
bands arc Republicans, are treated but little
better than Northern ladies, " and that ''some
Of the young ladies Of Vicksburg have re-
solved not to speak to or recognize the young
gentlemen who voted for Grant" What hope
can he entertained Of q country and a people
where such things are not only possible but
arc the rule aud the practice of everyday
life? Il Is dishcartcnlng 10 think Of II in the
United States and In the nlnoLeenth century.

Tue Hon. 4. Z. BENEDICT contributes to
this weeks Independent an article on the sub
jcct Of annexation and San Domingo, In
which, after reviewing the law and facts In
the case, no takes tho ground that tho lad
mission Of new outside communities Us part
Of the Union belongs not to the Executive,
nor to the Senate alone as part Of the treaty
making power, but to the Congress, as the
only power competent to express the national
will. Hence the sO-called treaty, which was
negotiated for the acquisition Of San Domingo
might properly have been sent not to the
Senate for ratification but to Congress for
adoption. II may still be considered by both
Ho Bcs In open session, and adopted by q
majority by Joint resolution; which II seems
to me should he done as early Us practicable
that ON the receipt Of corresponding action
by the Dominican authorities, Congress may
have time during the coming session to pass
such laws as the new situation may demand"
This IA not a new view Of tho question. When
the subject was under consideration two or
three years ago ii was pressed by u large num-
her Of Congressman, and was undoubtedly
legal and cOnstitutiOnally correct.

The Tribune, with view to the eternal
fitness Of things, burios among It's advertise
mcnts an address signed by that redOutable
patriot, the Hon. John COchrane, to the Libe-
raj Republicans Of New York. General John
says that he has emerged" (no simpler word
would suit hlm) from an exciting political
campaign, and that although he has been
beaten his principles still live, aud, what Is
more, that lac believes In them. The idea Of
Cochrano talking about principle Is certainly
rich, and enough, rs the old prOyerb says, ITO
make the cats laugh" Although the princi-
pal Liberal organ does not pay 1t even tho
small honor Of an editorial allusiun, We shall
quote one paragraph from 1t as a curiosity In
our political literature:
Liberal RepubCans you lett your party rs
The marble leaves Its bed-sOlid aud sharply de-
nned. Defeat has not Impaired you. You cove
nanted al Cincinnati, not temporary struggle
Dut perpetual war with corruption - unrelnlt-
ting effort TO insCribe upon the tables Of the law
reCOnBtTuctlOn, publication, and universal am
hgsty. Failing IN your INST essay, duty requires
persistent steps,
II we were to take up General Johns me-
taphOr we should be inclined to say that the
marble spllnters that left the Republican
quarry are Its mere scourlngs that have been
washed away by the rains, mixed with vile
rubbish and vulgar clay, leaving tho original
rock clear and pure In all lts snowy white
ness. But seriously, Is II not time that we
had the end Of all tllls stuff about Liberalism

PRESIDENT GRANT AND SOCIAL
EQUALIrY.-A delegation of negroes
visited President Grant a few days ago,
and requested that he should send a
special message to Congress, asking the
passage of Summers amendment to the
Amnesty bill now pending in the Sen
ate.
After hearing the views and state
ments of his sable friends, the President
replied: "That he had no doubt that
the colored people were deprived of some
rights and privileges they had clear
claim. His impression was that the
lecent amendments to the Constitution
conferred upon them all the privileges
of citizenship, and he thought the Courts
would accord all the legal rights with
held. With regard to amending the
Amnesty bill by the addition of the
supplementary Civil Rights bill, the
President considered that such action
would jeopardize tho passage OF an am
nesty law; while from his knowledge OF
Mr.. Summers bill he believed it could be
passed on its merits as q separate meas
ure.n
President Grant thus implicitly ap-
proves the proposition of Mr.: Sumner,
enforcing by act Of Congress the right OF
the negro to mix indiscriminately with
the whites in all our churches, theatres
and other places of amusement, school
rooms, hotels, steamboats, and railroad
cars. This, we apprehend, will not
strengthen him with his own party in
the North, while at the South it will be
met with almost universal condemna-
tion.-Chronicle d Sentinel.
