The Civil Rights bill having passed both
Houses of Congress, received the President's
signature on the 1st inst., and is now the law
of the land. The Democratic Senators did not
vigorously oppose its passage, az they are con-
fident that it will be declared unconstitutional
by the Supreme Court. In this opinion they
are supported by many of the leading Repub-
licans in Congress Senator Carpenter, &C.
knowledged authority constitutional law,
being among the number of those who take
this position. Meanwhile may expect to
Union as the immediate result of the passage
of the bill, for it can hardly be expected that
wisdom and prudence will guide tho acts of
hotel, restaurant and theatre proprietors in
matter which involves the utter annihilation
of their business. Already the strife has COM

been diversified could be expected. In

took up their tickets and gave them back their
money. At the Exchange Hotel, Richmond,
Va, several visited the restaurant, bar room
and barber shop and demanded to be waited
on. They were refused in every instance and
ordered out. Manager Davey, of the new
Memphis Thestre, admitted four to the dress
circle. The proprietors of the Park Hotel,
Baltimore, and of all the hotels in Alexandria,
Va, have had their licenses cancelled and have
closed their houses.

"Put money in THY purse" said Iago
but he never laid that down for an official
maxim. To make money out OF public
office was once thought horrible. They
all do it now. Andrew Johnson refused a
present of a carriage and horses. Con
gress impeached him. Now, what man in
Office declipes any present from any body 2
Shall we ever get back to the old decencies 7
We believe it. We believe with living
faith, in the Republic. The present order
will pass away aud leave the great heart of
the people-tbe vital institutions of the
Republic-sound to the core. FOrtes ante
Agamemnon. There were statesmen of
sensitive scruples and nice honesty in Ten
nessee before Andy. We have seen a let
ter from James X. Polk ("whose seat an
other fills") to a banker in Washington,
who stood high in his confidence-a man of
many virtues-with the soft heart and the
unbounded charity. Mr.. Polk had ordered
the purchase of some United States stock.
Afterward he thought that the President
ought not to dealSin the public securities.
He ordered the stock sold and the money
he had paid for it replaced to bis credit.
The stock had risen aud there was profit
on the transaction. Tue President would
not take it, the banker would not keep it.
and it was sent to the Orphan Asylum If
the District of Columbia. We remember
in this connection a famous political case
that came into the courts. Cobbett-ex-
cept the Rev. DR.. Swift "tbe most efficient
llbeller that ever exercised the trade'-
charged William Pitt with making moneJ
on the Stock Exchange. Pitt brought an
action for libel. British statesmen have
been always very sensitive on this point of
character. CObbett said it was not libel
that the Prime Minister had the common
right to deal in stocks, only it was indie
corous and fit subject of censure. But
Mansfield, Pitts old hereditary foe, asser-
ted for him the true doctrine in public
morals. He ruled that the Minister was
right that he could not honestly deal in
stocks that it would be using his official
knowledge for private gain that it would
be exposing public trust to be brought in
opposition to private interests; tbatit would
be of mischievous and immoral tendency,
and that the action for libel was well taken.
Such lie the high doctrine of true statesmen,
of men of cultivated minds and high sensi-
tive principles. We give the letter of
President Polk-never pefore in print. In
IS47 three thousand dollars was a large
sum for Presidents to handle now it is
hardly change to carry in one2s- pocket
