We give elsewhere tho particulars of
the recent death of Chief Justice Chase. No
American statesman ever was better known
by our people, or was more trusted and
honored than Mr.. Chase One Of the very
first to declare himself unalterably opposed
to the further extension Of slavery, when
such Il declaration meant hitter hatred at
the hands Of his former political associates,
aud almost social os,racism be was carly
IN the progress Of the movement made its
standard-bearer aud well and truly did he
perform the part assigned him, from the
lower positions to which he was elected un-
til he was fuall y sent to the United States
Senate, where he took rank the peer of any
Of the brilliant lights which at that time
adorned that body. His mastery admins
tration of the financial affairs of the country
during the rebellion will not be forgotten.
With the confidence bogotten of thorough
mastery Of the situation, aud comprehen-
sive grasp Of financial matters of the largest
magnitude, he raised the country from the
depths Of embarrassment, and, better than
perhaps any other man could have done, he
furnished the "sinews Of war;" with which
the great rebellion was finally crushed.
His career as Chief Justice Of the Supreme
Court has been marked with more conserva-
tive tendencies than those which ruled him
ia his earlier years but he was an honest
and an able man, whom the people loved to
honor, and who never betrayed the trust
which they conided to him.

any other people. From what little acquaint-
ance have had with them, am inclined to
think that they are not disposed to harbor any
luminosity toward their old masters. II they
have been misused, they seem to have forgotten
it, and generally are disposed to speak well oil

When the people o. Louisiana come to the
conclusion to give up CASTE to let it die and be
buried forever, they can have a government OF
their own. They will have no further occasion
for United States troops, nor for the interior
ence of the United States government in their
affairs. They can save their money pay their
debts, and be on the highway to a state Of
prosperity far exceeding any that has heretofore
existed
But if they conclude otherwise, fear that

convinced how difficult it is with pen and ink
to give any thing like a just representation Of
the present state Of things here I will, there

The announcement Of the death Of
John Stuart Mill will be read with sorrow
by a large number Of our country men who
have perused his very able works on politi-
cal economy and on questions involving the
popular reforms of the day His writings
have taken their place among the standard
works, and as a whole embody the ripest
thought and the best results of modern in
yestigaiion. OF course, be belonged to the
British school of economists, aud shared
their views upon the question of protection
and free trade. But waving that subject
Of controversy, there is no dispute that,
taking the whole field Of political and SO.
cial economy, he stood while he lived at the
head. He had rare gift Of lucid and
condensed expression. Some of the most
terse, compact aud meaty utterances in our
language are to be found in his writings
His thinking was so clear that it naturally
induced the clearest and strongest compost
ton. A few years since he was elected to
Parliament, and, while he lacked the ordin-
airy political tastes, he proved himself a
useful and successful member His true
realm was that Of speculative inquiry and
economic problems, aud to their pursuit he
brought finish Of culture and wealth Of
attainments which secured for him the name
of possessing the most elaborated miud Of
the age.

The national debt of Great Britain,
once considered BY the people of the realm
as a great blessing, is now looked upon as
curse and it is noticeable that England
is making an effort at its reduction. Since
1869 the public debt has been reduced
s9s,OOO,0O0, and of this amount $780,
100000 were raised during the past
year. Though England levies duties on
only few articles, some six in all, the
estimated customs duties for the present
year is sl05, 1855, 900, the tax on spirits alone
realizing s95,OOO,O00. The income tax
now yields over sS,000,000. 1t is a curl
Gus evidence of the difference between
Americans and Englishmen that the income
tax, which was first imposed thirty years
ago, still forms one of the chief sources of
British revenue, while in this country af-
ter few years, it became one Of the most
unpopular taxes ever imposed, and was
abolished.

The Future of Democracy.


We have good authority for believing
that the leopard can not change bis spots
but the Democratic party, nothing daunted
by repeated failures, seems bent on another
effort to accomplish a similar feat. 1t has
no scruplcs in undertaking to change its
appearance whenever there is prospect
that the change proposed will make it more
prescntable TO the public But, were il
possible for the leopard to change his
spots, it would be a leopard still. So with
the Democratic party. 1t will be impos-
sible to change its character, so long as it
remains the same organization, and mar
shaled under its old leaders The smell
Of disloyaty is still rank upon iis garments,
and the people cannot be deceived ms to its
true character by any outward appearances.
The leaders Of the party have had fire.
quent consul tations recently, and they have
invited into their counsels leading Liberals,
the object being to Fix upon some plan oil
action for the future They do not propose
to again trade horses while fording the
stream, but seem determined to pass titles
at the earliest possible date and be prepar.
ed for the contest in the future. As a re-
suit Of these conferences and consultations.
the Washington correspondent Of the Gin
cinuati Enquirer gives the following as
the platform upon which the party will
probably take its stand:
First, an Affirmation Of free trade and direct
taxation, to be accompanied by change in The
Constitution, making property instead Of repre-
seutation the basis of taxation. Second, de-
mand for the abolition Of the National banking
system, substituting therefor a free banking
law authorizing any one to issue circulation
redeemable By the Government 10 the value of
Government securities retired by him, and re-
turned Cancelled to the Treasury Third, an
internal Improvement system by the Govern.
ment, directed chiefly to the development OF
our inland water resources, connecting those
inland With the seaboard by canals aud river
improvements.
Those who remember the issues of for
MGR years will be somewhat surprised at
this. Upon the last two propositions, it is
complete change of front. The Demo.
Gratis have always opposed banking, even
under the most thorough restrictions, and
have pronounced internal improvements, OF
fresh water improvements, unconstitutional
and contrary to the spirit and policy of the
government. They are at liberty to adopt
Republican platform if they choose, and
certainly it would be evidence Of good
sense for them to do SO but the people
know them, and will be slow to believe in
their sincerity or honesty. The anything.
to-get-ofiice policy will not succeed.
