According to the Washington correspondence

the Superintendent of Public Instruction to issue
a certificate to the effect that any person bearing

ought not to be tolerated in free country.

From the Boston journal.
Mr.. BL4IIL'S TRIUMPH.

Whatever difference of opinion may
prevail in regard to the general effect oil
the amnesty debate. or even with respect
to the wisdom of Mr. Blaine's original
amendment. there can be no dissent from
the verdict that as pariamentarian he
has completely mastered and dunn biound-
cred the whole democratic side OF the
House. The most skilllul of their leaders
are but children in his hands. This has
been seen from the first. when he broke
through all their plans by bringing the sub
| iect to discussion, and it was conspicuously
manifested ia the close of the debate on Fri
day, when he Unexpectedly recovered the
leadership on the floor, till he had accom-.
plshed his objects, when he suddenly dis
missed the whole matter from the iurisdic-
ton of the House. leaving the democratic
managers as utterly dashed and bewil-
dered as lot of gamesters when the gas
is turned out by the police. The use.:too.
which he made of his brief mastery was
singularly effective. He showed that
those who are coming before the country
with their confident demands for universal
amnesty, are actually DISTINGUISHING and
deposing men whose chief offence is that
they have been active friends of the Union.
He gave, also, distinct opportunity to
any democrat in the House to secure the
amnesty Of some 149 -Confederates, by
leaving jeff Davis-whom they all pre-
tend to care nothing about ust where he
is for the present; and then he offered to
yield the floor that he might bring up the
ranks were as dumb as oysters to both
propositions.
! Such achievements as these are consid-
ably more than mere parliamentary flour
shes-they 60 to the root Of subject Of
vast significance to the people of this
country. Mr.. Blaine has thrown food
of light across ''chasm" which it was for
the interest of the democratic managers
North and South to keep out of view, and
he will receive credit accordingly. Yes.
it will be said, but he has hurt himself as
candidate for the Presidency. 1t would
be safe to say that this language, nine
times out of ten, comes only from Mr..
Blaine's opponents. If it is a question of
mere astuteness, the man who has no diff
Guilty in outwtting the democratic MAORI
ty of the House at every turn, may, sure
ly, be left to take care of his own affairs,
as the republican party will take care Of
its affairs in due season. We may remark,
however, that some men are much more
easily killed than others. Those who live
on their dignity and their careful avoid
ance of the rough struggles of life, are
peculiarly tender Mr.. Blaine is not Of
that kind; he is as tough as he is active,
and he RECEIVERS as vigorously as he strikes.
There had better be no worry about him,
so long as he serves the cause of truth,
fair dealing and genuine patriotism.

Tilden the Great Reformer.

In 1867, 1861 1869, 1870, and down to the
middle of 1871, the history of the city of New
York ought to sutfuse the cheek of every Amer
lean with the blush of shame. In 1866 Samu-
ell i. Tilden was made Chairman Of the Dem
ocratic State Committee, and continuously
held that position until the time of the unearth-
ing Of the city branch ofethe ring by the New
York Times in 1871, and during that time
there was added to the debt of the city, $780,
$1,000, and to the city of Brooklyn, $2O,0O0,-

refogmer, held the Craftsmanship, the rings of
these cities, had collectedn taxes, and borrowf
