Reform Tammany.

It sometimes happens that the amenities
are forgotten in Tammany Hall, and then
one of those old-fashioned rows occurs which
proves that the Wigwam has still its place
among us. During the last three or four
years we have heard 80 much about reform
Tammany that we began to fear that re-
form in Tammany was no longer necessary.
This would be calamity indeed for few of
us are anxious for the millennium which
such condition would clearly indicate
Our fears are put to flight, however, for in
looking over the proceedings of the General
Committee the other night we find such ex-
pressions as these, which may offend polite
ears, but which show that the old spirit is
still alive in Tammany Hall =

"You are d-nd liar; you did,"
"You lie, d-n you"

There is o vigor in this which almost
makes us forgive the profanity. "You lie,

kind of deary, dreary talk INDUCED in at

what kind of Roman John Kelly is, with
his little hatchet. Custer was not braver
than this noble Roman in war paint, and no
filter time for it's expression could have been
found than the time when the chief was
calmly looking on at the war dance of his
divided braves. That was the moment
Roberts chose for pronouncing his grand
eulogy on Kelly-the moment when reform
Tammany was showing that reform had not
eliminated any of it's old spirit or its well
known hardness in fght--and we cannot
adequately express our satisfaction at the
grand manner in which the noble Roman
patted his rebellious subject on the back

We hope the Governor will remember that
in this matter he cannot speak too bluntly.
His party has not come up to the just indig-
nation of the public on this question. 1t has
encouraged, or at least not discouraged, such
brutalities as that at Hamburg. Even now
the party organs here in the North are pal

that, after all, 'the niggers" were to blame.
This kind of talk, mixed with empty appeals

prisoners, nor even, as we in New York
know very we'll, the liberty to ihsolently in

organs are driving nails into Governor Til
den's coffin which he will have hard work
to pull out. We wait to hear from the Gov

thinks about the Hamburg butchery.
The wish of the country to hear from Gov
ernor Tilden on this subject does not abate
the force of its demand that he be explicit

He must not shirk the one-term question,
nor, least of all, the civil service question,

will require no political courage for Mr. Til

stoughton's Response to Belmont.


Mr.. Stoughton writes from Saratoga let
ter in answer to that of Mr.. Belmont
which we printed few days since. Mr..
Stoughton makes it clear enough that
he did not intend to misrepresent Mr. Bel
mont; he merely read from the Troy Times
language relating 10 Governor Tilden which
that paper had ascribed to Mr.. Belmont
Mr. Stoughton offers as an apology or extern
uation for the hasty credence he gave to the
statement of the Troy paper the we'll known
fact that previous to the st. Louis Conven-
ton Mr.. Belmont did not disguise his op-
position to the nomination Of Governor Til
den. But there was no authentic evidence
that Mr.. Belmont questioned Governor Til
den's integrity, and it was so improbable that
he should have done so that there was force
and pertinence in Mr.. Belmont's suggestion
that Mr.. Stoughton might easily have ascer-
tanned by writing him q note whether such
language had ever been used Mr. Bel
mont's denial would have been conclusive
on that point before Mr. Stoughton' speech,
as it is since, and it would have been better to
have avoided a misunderstanding. Hearsay
is not evidence, and so eminent LAWYER as
Mr.. Stoughton should have seen the impor-
tance of verifying loose newspaper statements
before giving them currency in public
speech, especially when they affected the
character of persons who stand as high in

The Sioux have been moderated as war

Give tho South All the Money II
Needs.

Needs
Wetrust that the proper desire for economy
now shown by Congress will not interfere
with the appropriations for the South. We
are in favor of giving the South all the money
its people need. Let us give money to i'm
prove navigation, open harbors, build pub
lie buildings. Let us do what we can to
stimulate special Southern industries-cot-
ton, tobacco, rice and sugar Let us, if it is
in the power of Congress, make that rich and
beautiful land to blossom with new life In
dealing with the South let us always remem-
Der the hard conditions of the war-the
money we took when we freed the slaves,
when we compelled a repudiation of her
debts, when we seized cotton, when we raw
aged the Valley of the Shenandoah and
marched through Georgia. And while these
were all war measures-which we should do
again under the same necessity-let us re-
member what burden it was to the con-
quered, and how it crushed them to the
earth. Whenever, then, we can give the
South money in appropriation bills, in
shaping revenue Or financial legislation, let
us do so. We should be quite content if
for the next five years three-fourths of the
money voted by Congress were to go into the
Southern States alone. Whatever we do for
economy let US give the South all the money
she wants.

The Senate AWaktng.

The movement to induce the President
to decline the resignation of MI. Pratt al
Commissioner of Internal Revenue shows
that the republicans in Washington
are awaking to the danger to the
canvass from Grants obstinate course.
They see, as the HERALD pointed out, that
no matter what party papers might say as to
Grant and Hayes not being in sympathy, and
Hayes not being responsible for the acts OF
party do not protest the country must hold
them all responsible. This responsibility
falls especially on the Senate. That body
shares executive power with the President.
1t has only to say to him "check," and ha
could not make another move in the game
of Cmsarism. Suppose, for instance when
Jewell was driven out republicans like
Conkling and Morton had gone to Grant and
aid:-"Mr. President, Mr.. Jewell is repub-
lican. He has been Governor of Connecticut,
and was its choice for the Presidency. He
supports Hayes, as we all do. He has his
rights in the party, as we all have. Before
we consent to his degradation we must know
the reason. III tnaC reason IS gOOQ
one, if Mr. Jewell has proved dishonest, If
he has betrayed you or the party, then this
reason must go to the country for your vim
dication and ours. Such q man should not
be permitted in the party. But if no such
reason exists, if this is whim, or freak.
then we cannot be a party to it. Every
party has joint responsibility, you as Presi-
dent, we as Senators. The moment we sur.
render our independence that moment the
party goes into syncope."
If the President had been SO addressed
there would have been an end of this new
phase of Cesarism. We presume from what
we hear of the efforts to save Pratt that the
Senators are awaking. They would be
madmen to allow Grant to throw away fair,
promising canvass, as he now threatens to
do. Unless the Senators coax the President
or coerce him into position of harmony
with the party and of respect for the funda-
mental principles of republican government
Hayes and Wheeler will be defeated as badly
as Scott and Graham or Greeley and Brown
