A DANG EROES CANE

There is unfortunately very little reason to
doubt that the Louisiana Returning Board has
perfected its plans for cheating the Conserya-
tives out of their victory, and that the returns
from so many Conservative parishes will be
thrown out or indefinitely laid over that the
Legislature will assemble with an apparent
majority for Kellogg. The pretenses under
which this rascally scheme is carried out are
various. In most instances the Republicans
have made merely frivolous and insincere pro.
tests against the returns-protests which would
inevitably be overruled on an impartial hear
ing, but which serve their purpose well enough
with judges who are neither impartial nor
honest In other instances the Republican off.
cials charged with the custody of the returns
have either neglected or positively refused to
turn them over to the canvassers, and tho

TIE GOLD EXPORTS.

Considering only the imports and exports of
merchandise, the balance of trade is not less
than S150,OO0,000 more favorable to the United
States for the year 1874 than it was for the
year 1872 Yet the drain of specie from New
York to Europe continues with as much force
as ever Within the last five weeks nearly
ten millions have left us, and the commercial
supply is reduced to very insignificant
amount in comparison with the requirements
of such port as New-York. These facts are
at once demonstration OF the absurdity of
expecting to increase our supply of coin by
rectifying the balance of trade, and reminder
Of the Inconvenience to which the trade OF the
country is subjected by the persistent refusal
of the United States to make any use of the
precious metals as money. The gold market
with the present restricted supply of coin, can
easily be manipulated by SPECTATORS, and we
need not say that the controlling motive with
them is not the welfare of the mercantile
community.
The true explanation Of the continued call
for coin for expectation is the direction which
the savings of the country are now taking.
For some years there has not been such
disposition on the part of savings banks, in
SuranCe companies, anu lnulVluualS 10 invest
in United States bonds. The six per cent
bonds which are called in for payment in the
process of funding nearly all come from Eu-
rope, and the fives of the funded loan which
take their place, We are happy to say, have
been absorbed in large quantities by American
investors. In this way our international in
de5tedncss is reduced. 1t should also be said
that tho field for the employment of money in
new enterprises. such as railroads, factories,
&C., is now unusually restricted, and the
investment of a portion of the savings of
the people necessarily takes the form
of O repurchase from Europe of some of the
securities we have sold there in such vast quan.
titles since the war. The state of the Euro
pean money markets is also favorable to the
movement we have described. The influences
being of comparatively permanent charac-
ter, their natural effect viii be to increase the
value of gold, as compared with the paper
money prices of the articles we sell for foreign
export. If we increase our sales we must re-
duce our prices. The securities imported can
only be paid for by commodities exported, and
it is self-evident, since the entire commercial
supply of gold in the Atlantic States is not in
the least excessive, that not much more of
that commodity can be spared, whatever may
be the wishes of the European banks.
New-York tribune., 1874-12-14
COLORFD CONSERVATIVES.

AS long as the negro vote in the South is
cast solid, or nearly SO, there is no reason to
expect any amelioration of the condition of
politics in that section. While this vast mass
of voting material remains in the compact
state which ever since the war has made it the
objective point of every adventurer in search
of Office, there is no reason to hope for that
intelligent discussion and watchful criticism
which are the only salvation of political life
in democratic governments. The vote has
hitherto been too manageable. 1t has been O
sort of patent right in the hands of the car
pet-baggers, and has been worked without
infringement and with results which are too
well known. 1t is against public interests that
this monopoly should continue. If the aims
and processes of the Republican leaders in
the South were far better than they are, it
would still be bad thing for the Southern
States and for the country, for the African
race to support one party solidly against the
other. The almost undivided support of the
Irish in this city is source of endless danger
and corruption to the Democratic party, which
almost sets off the unquestiOnable advantages
of the majolities they give. 1t is too plain for
argument that it is morally great injury to
q political party to receive year after year the
unanimous and unreasoning support of q cer-
tain race or nationality. The temptation is
two-fold. The leaders. thus intrenched by
votes which are moved by mere partisan ma
cbinery, lose their wholesome regard for pub
lie opinion. and only seek to perpetuate their
hold upon power by corrupting and buying
certain number of the local politicians of the
race on which they rely. They not only grow
dishonest themselves, but they are the cause
of widespread dishonesty in others. In the
