A Washington correspondent Of the
ST. Louis Globe Democrat, Republican
SAYS in reference to the exposure of cor
ruption in high places that the "crust
has only bee;I scratched"-to use the
language of one of the members-in the
Belknap scandal. The assessment on
post traders and depositors has been car
red to large extent, and Belknap's in
come, directly and indirectly, has been
enormous. His fortune is estimated at a
cool 800, 900, and he spent $4,000 in
high living. His family except up with

party which elected him, and to the rep

A Radical paper hopes the impeach-
ment proceedings in the Mississippi
Legislature will command the attention
Oft North and says it is very important
that the true spirit which is animating
these restored Mississippians to new cru
SADIE against the Republican voters, should
be understood. As Mississippi is not
.amenable to Northern communities for
the manner in which she chooses to con-
duet her, local affairs, we do not desire
that her action should be subjected to
surveillance from that quarter for the ig-
noble reason suggested by the Radical
editor. But our respect for the impair
tial judgment of honest and intelligent
people of every section and cline prompts
the hope that these proceedings will re-
eeive consideration everywhere. We
want the country at large to see what an
infamous, corrupt and usurping rule the
people of Mississippi have thrown off, and
now by every motive of self-preservation
they were compelled to exercise their ut
most efforts at the poll to rid themselves
OF 1T. Let the facts be submitted to a
candid world, by all means.

A New Departure by the COlored
VOters-They Propose to Join
the Conservative Ranks.

WASHINGTON, March "a delega-
ton of colored men called at the rooms
of the Democratic National Committee,
asking political recognition. Their print
ed declaration, which was adopted by a
large meeting held here Friday, Febru-
AIRY 10Th, commences: We, colored men,
representing nearly all the States and
Territories of the United States, are tired
of our self-imposed party yoke; its injus-
tice to us and its fragrant violations ofthe
Constitution in order to trample out local
self-government and insult our brave and
we'll disposed fellow-citizens of the South,
and earnestly believe that a division of
the solid phalanX of colOred voters will
act beneticially upon the two great par
ties, and therefore We propose to stand
by principles, and will support only
those men who will do the most for us.
This policy, we believe, will inure to the
lasting tranquility of the country, and a
speedy return to good feeling between
the late master and the now free citizen
will follow.
Weinvoke the blessing of the Almighty
God upon this carefully considered de-
parture, and invite the hearty and cordial
cooperation of the colored people of the
whole country, who, like US, have cause
for well-grounded complaint, to organize,
to the end that their ballots may subserve
the peace of the country. the fraterniza-
tion of all the people, and the prosperity
and unitication of all the sections of our
indivisible Republic.

a Suggestion 10 Democratic Con.
GreSmem.

Inasmuch as the Democratic party has
had no control in the government for fif-
teen years and are not responsible for the
present deranged condition of the curren-
cy, and inasmuch as the Democrats have
majority in but one branch of Congress,
while the other branch and the Executive
Department are in the hands of the Re-
publicans, and therefore they (the Dem
ocrats) are utterl y powerless to carry out
any plan of their own, for remedying exist.
ing evils, we submit that it would.be wise
for them to leave the whole subject Of the
currency to their adversaries, and direct
their energies to the reduction of expen-
ditures and the decrease of public bur
dens, and to the exposures of the villainies
and coruptions of the party in power
from this time forward When they have
wrested the government from the control
of the wreckers. they can agree upon a
plan of correcting the disorders of a
vicious currency.

The Public Debt.

The Joint resolution for the appoint
ment Of a committee to ascertain the
amount of public debt put on the State
by the late carpet bag regime, is proper.
Let us know the worst, and be prepared
for it. Notwithstanding the debt is the
product of prohigacy, and may have
been, to a large degree, created for pur-
poses outside the legitimate ends of gov
eminent, there should be, and will be,
no thought of reputation, nor even of
scaling the debt As matter of abso-
lutte necessity and CT relief to the impov-
erished taxpayers, it may be unavoidable
to defer the payment of part if not
the whole of the amount but in the end
it will be redeemed with interest to the
last farthing. In this connection we
would call attention to the communica-
ton of Taxpayer, in another column.

Postpone Payment of the Bonds

EDS. CLARION: | have seen with sur
prise that several Democratic papers
have commented unfavorably on the
proposition of Senator Chalmers, to post
pone payment of that portion OF the
State bonds which natures next January.
These papers characterize the proposition
as reputation. Nothing, it seems to
me, can be more untrue or unjust than
this charge. There is not civilized
State or nation in the world that does
not, when deemed necessary, extend It's
bonded debt, or let it 90 unpaid without
formal extension. So long as the State
recognizes its binding validity and makes
provision for the payment of interest, no
charge of Reputation is or can be brought
against her. There is scarcely State
in the Union that is paying off its bond
ed debt, or thinking of doing so. Many
of them are not paying the interest
on it, and several of them have,
within the last few years, expressly
repudiated or scaled large portion Of
their bonds. Why should Mississippi
undertake to pay off the principal of her
debt, in her present distressed condition,
when far Weather States, both North
and South, are paying only their inter
est? Are her people so much Weather
and more prosperous than those OF other
States? A man who buys government
bond, buys it for an investment or for a
speculation. If for an investment, he is
content so long as he draws his interest
regularly. If for speculation, he can
not complain that the necessities of the
State render it impossible for her to meet
: it promptly at maturity. 1t is certainly
, new idea to charge reputation upon {
/ State for simple failure to pay off it:
bonds when due.
: Senator Chalmers proposition is right.
Pay the interest on the bonds and extend
the principal until better times enable us
! to meet it with less suffering than now
| | fear that some Of our editors as wei
: as some of our Legislators are not suff
GENTLY impressed with the idea that the
r one thing which the people demand anC
must have, is some immediate and APP
probable reduction in the rate of taxation
They universally expect and they mus
have it. Anything short of it will pro
duce widespread disappointment anc
curses dire aud deep. Curtailment o
expenses is an excellent thing, but it viii
not satisfy the people. There must be s
curtailment of taxation. The Legisla
ture has thus far done well in cutting
down expenses. Let them complete the
good work by cutting down taxation. /
: they do not, there will be trouble at thu
next election. 1t can only be done by
postponing payment of the bonded deb
incurred by the Radical party. This il
; not reputation. 1t is only what al
States do, and what our necessities com
pei us to do. hope that THE CLARIor
will speak out on the subject.

Cincinnati Enquirer.l

Cincinnati Enquirer.
WASHINGTON, March 9TH, 1876.
For the first time in his Congressional ca
reer, Blaine was to-day completely fatten-
ed out and squelched. Hehad arranged a
programme for defending the action OF
the President and the Attorney-General
in trying to get the Belknap case out of the
hands of the House. This programme
was to defeat resolution from the Dem.
ocratic side instructiug Mr.. Clymer's
Committee not to give any evidence before
the Grand Jury in relation to Mr. Belk-
nap. This defeat was to be accomplished
by amending it SO as to permit individual
members of the Committee to exercise
their own discretion in the matter. This
would have given the two Republicans on
the Committee authority to submit all its
documents to the Grand Jury, and would
have accomplished the purposes of Grant
and Pierrepont as effectually as if the
whole Committee had been instructed to
tappear and testify. Mr.. Hoar offered
this programme as an amendment to the
resolution of the Democrats, which was
presented by Mr.. Lamar, Then the bat
tie began. AT the proper moment, after
several of the small fry had made their
cut-and-dried speeches, Blaine took the
Moor, and, in his customary bullying, in-
solent style, attempted to overwhelm
all opposition, and scare the Demo
Gratis into concession to Hoar's amend
ment Blaine's design was to call out
some indiscreet remarks from the Dem
ocratlc side, and then throw the House
into bar-room melee as he did in the
Andersonville debate. But when he
had finished Lamar rose. Lamar is the
coolest man ON the Democratic side. No
taunts can annoy him. No bullying
or insolence disturbs his equanimity. In
reply to Blaines frantic bullying he cool
ly began to read the law governing such
cases, together with several decisions and
precedents. He made no comment nv
way OF preface, except to say that he
would show Mr.. Blaine to be utterly To-
norant ofthe law, and utterly unmindful
OF the precedents in regard to the matter,
and that before he (Lamar) got through
he would subject him (Blaine) to the
ridlcule OF his opponents and the pity of
ms friends. The result was a most com
plete and abject humiliation of the Ken
nebec Bully, and the utter exposition of
his programme. The whole affair was
admirably managed by the Democrats,
and Mr.. Lamar deserves great credit for
the mastery way in which he led the
tray The expression among the Demo
Gratis tonight is universal that Lamar is
the safest and most adroit leader that
could be selected. He is the only man
who has succeeded in flooring Blaine.

The Impeachment Ok Gov Ames
What Outsiders Say.
New York WOrld.l

New York World.l
If the resolutions reported by the
House Committee, recommending the
impeachment and removal of Governor
Ames, are not adopted by the Mississippi
Legislature, it will be for reasons of ex-
pediency, because, with a Democratic
Legislature and Treasurer, it is believed
that Ames' power for mischief is effectu-
ally held in check. The evidence is amply
sufficient to warrant his impeachment;
Congressman Wells deposition, which
distinctly fastens on Ames the response
bility for the Vicksburg massacre, in
itself would be enough, under strict
administration of law, to send him to the
Jail or the gallows.
Philadelphia Times.l
e The jig appears to be up with Mr..
Ames, of Mississippi, and it will take all
the eloquence of his distinguished father
in-law, General Butler, to save him from
the something that to his kind is more
terrible than disgrace. ra q, )
