The Reform Bill Signed by the Queen—Scene the House of Lords—Downfall of Aris- tecracy—Reconstruc: Parties—The New Englioh Voters and the New American Negro Voters. Loyvox, August 16, 1867, Some time ago, in the midst of the Parliamentary de- bates upon the Reform bill, the Hexato published a lettor comparing the reform agitation here with the anti- slavery agitation inthe United states, and showing the curious similarities betweon the party leaders, the post- tions of political parties and the strong popular pressure in both countries. I recur to that comparison, now that the Reform bill has become the law of the land, in order to point out or suggest some equally curious similarities im tho results of these two great national agitations, As you have learned by this time, the Associated Press telegrams misled the American public by stating that the House of Lords adopted the Reform bill without amendment. On the contrary, the aristocracy at first fought hard against the Reform measure, and sent it back to the Hoase of Commons clogged and crippled with amendments which obviously destroyed its efii- cloncy—such, for example, as the increase of the lodger franchise and the scheme for the introduction of voting papers, The House of Commons, backed by public opinion and the powerful press, refused to accept any of alterations, except the plan for the representation of minorities, and accepted that under the urgent advice of the London Timer, merely as an experiment, to be abolished or extended hereafter just as it may be found to work well or illin the few constituencies to which it tn to be applied In overiooking these facts you lose sight of two of the land have pow reached, and there is not the slightest doubt that the weakness of the resistance to the popular will by the English aristocrats was in = measure caused by the failure of the resistance which the Southern aristocrats had offered in the United States. The Ame- ican leaven is working all ever the world. It 1s not too much to say that had the Southern rebellion succeeded there would have been no reform in England. The ‘triumph of the people here is a legitimate consequence @f the triumph of the people in America, aristocracy having bill as it was z i i H { t Hi : TAT ts ili al a I i nt thet ie ‘at ve inevitable recut a some ted che United States; dat, with the ex that ny 5 complexe.

Here there are no data can — as yet, how many uew ill will create, The Dill does not go until January, 1869, and all elections will be conducted under the present ough ig known to verify the fact that io will swap tl asthe negro voter the white constitu . This state ot aflairs puzzles the politicians, here, like the radicals in America, claim new votera share their opinions, The tories im that there t# a great deal of la- ip a classes ae Precisely w 6 the democratic leaders in that ultimately the emanci- for their former masters, revi oC party, State elec- like that in Tennessee, furnish some basis for 9 voters; but until 1809 have no chance to tako , of course, both parties will gain by ion to the franchise ; for votes are like water— their level. But this inust necessarily be pre- by @ reconstruction of parties, and here you flad another point of similarity in the results of emancipa- tion and reform. The tory party must dic here.as the democratic party has died in the United States. New ES built upon new platforms, and dealing with new ea, are ‘ble in both countries. The Reform bill gives the rignt to vote to every house- holder who ‘his taxes, even though his rent amounts only to twenty-five cents a week anid bjs taxes to twenty-five cents a year, and also to every lodger who pays fifty dollars a year for his apartments, It is haraly possible that any negro voter in the South will pay less Teut or less taxes than these, and the one year’s resi- dence, which is the only other qualification of the new bo gg voters, would not exclude nogroes from our pol! As a matter of fact, this Reform bill practically imangurates universal suffrage in England. The potnt to which I desire to call aitention by this comparigon is, that England bas gone as far, by admitting uncounted thousands of Iaboring men to the suffrage, as you have, by admitting thousands of negroes; and that, on the whole, it is probable that the United States will have the best of the bargain in their new voters. Tho lower classes of Englishmen have often been called “white slaves.’ Certainly they are not much above the former condition Of our emancipated Sonthera slaves in any respect. Putting prejudices of color aside. the negroes are quite @qual to the lower class of Eaglshmen in morality, su- perior to them in quickness of perception and the desire to learn, and by no means to be compared to them in brutality. If many negroes lived in immorality without marriage while they were slaves, so do many lower class Englishmen. Negroes have been deprived of education ‘and 90 have lower class Englishmen; but negroes have generally been willing to learu and to havo their chil. drea learn when they had an opportunity, while It is conceded on all sides that any popular sysiom of educa- tion in England must be compulsory or it will fail to affect the lower orders, who had rather have their cbil- dren’s wages than have them educated In a letter like this, written for columns always over- crowded with news, there iz space only for suggestions; but the facts to support the bints here thrown out can be found m the police columns of any English paper. Mr. Lowe said a most true though biter sentence when he advised Parliament to “teach our future masters their letters.” ‘The new voters are to be the masters of Eng- land, and the majority of them do not know their letters. But although a similar amount of ignorance exists among the nogro voters of the South, education has already begun there; schosls are established; men, women and children are being taught. ‘his 1s am im- mense advantace, Then azaiu, the religions traming of the mew negro wolers is equal if not superor to that of the new English voters, There is obi and fetish worship in the south, but there is an equal amount of bel ef in witchcraft in Envland, But the negroes are naturally refisiows and love mand the church cer- eaREESERESE, BFE HH : iat ; H ile ae i B z h Te a be ll 33 ae #1 H f emonials, while the lower ciasses of Englishmen gener- ally do nit; I bave yet nd, in my jourueys through Great Britain, 0 see a church built and a minister enp- rely by lower class Englistmen, like the ch with its wh'te parson that the slaves on the plantations around Richmond formerly maintained at Manchester out of their little savings. Even the re- form ag’ has developed no such orators from tho working classes as have come already from the negro classes. It is easy to push this cotaparison too tar; but still Lthink that the trath is that in deaiing wiih the lem of pozro voters tho United States take no greater risks than Englaud can expect in dealing with her reform problem. ibe situations in both countries are almost identical, In the Henan you have already alluded to the re- semblances between Lincoin and Disraeli, under whose auspices the two crandest measures of the century Lave ‘been . We havea fteform League here, as you havo a Loyal League in the United States, that has con- tributed much to the agitation and it now trying to ma- wipulate the new voters. Earl Derby and his clique havo merely played in England tho same parts that ¢! domocrats played in America, In boih countries the majority of the new voters are presumably radical! and ‘will probably continue so until now parties are formed. Neither the negroes nor the lower classes here can ex- Peet to be immediately represented in Congress or in Parliament by members of thei: own order, although many people are clamoring here for laboring men in the House of Commons, jusi as poor Wendell Phillips clamors for negro Congressmen; but shrewder men discountenance this idea for the present, Ulti- mately it must come to that, however; aod we might as well make up our miads to inevitable, Mr. Lowe has hit upon the secret of safety in bis educational scheme, and with that all dangers from the new aod swamping Conatituencies in the South and in Engiand may indeed be obsiated. England bas at last been convinced that a man’s poverty ought not to exclude him from a voice in the government of the country, and the Uuiod States have learned the saine lesson iu regard to color. When i is also admitted that an educated negro is equal to an ignorant white maa, and that s poor man With brains is superior to an aristocratic or weslthy numekull, then ali the difficulties of representative government will be solved, and we may anticipate the political caiflonnium. \ NAPOLEON IN CAMP.

The political cauldron presided over by the three harpies of the City Hall, Hofman, Sweeny and Tweed, ke the Wwaches cauldron in Macbeth, is in a state of great fer- ‘mentation; itis all “bubble, bubble, tol and trouble,”” ‘The long smouldering fire of discontent, fauned into a flane by the treachery and corruption of those to whour iman evil hour the destiny ot the ence glorious demo- cratic Organization of Tammany was confided, threatens to consume not only those high priests of the temple, but the very temple itself, They have undertaken to rule the organization and to direct aud control the influence it possessed, not as in the days of old, by the inherent principles of true democracy, but by unworthy artifices and corrupt schemes and practices, by which they and a few of their friends and pergonal partisans were enabled to revel in the spoils purloined from the city treasury. These men are striving, by the tree use of the public coffers still at their mercy, to perpetuate their power over the city govera- ment; but, not all too late, the people are aroused to a sense of their danger, The Tammany party itself, dis- gusted with the inordinate appetite and ineatiate maw of these cormorants, is determined to cut their career short and terminate, as soon as may be, thelr power over the funds and government of the city. But this ig a duty in which the whole of the citizens of New York must combine, It will not do to trust the work of reclamation and purification to the dis- contented marauders and bashe-bazouks of Tammany, who only secede from the ring because they cannot ring the changos as they like, and prey upon the city at their Pleasure. Disappointed in attaining the nomination for this or that office, many strong men, commanding ex- tensive influence in thelr respective wards, will abandon the present leaders, and the fail of the Hoffman- Sweeny-Tweed dynasty will certainly be accomplished, But these men may take unto themselves other spirits More unclean than the first, and it will, therefore, behoove the voters of tho city to combine on a few trust- worthy, patriotic, honest men as their nominees for the two county offices of County Clerk and Sheriff, and thus, preparing thomselves for the more important straggle im December, inaugurate that campaign by putting for- ‘ward a man for Mayor, and electing him to office, who will redoem the city from the disgrace of such malgov- erament as it has been so long subjected to. Now is the accepted time, Internal feuds and dissensions rend the Tammany party in twala. Hoffman, Sweeny and Tweed have disgusted friends and embittered foos; the one by tergiversation and false represontations with regard to the appointments to office, and the other by systematic spoliation of the public treasury. Aguinst such odds the Tammany oligarchy cannot, stand. Hoffinaa revires into private life, and his successor must be the man of the people, not the pliant tool and creature of any ring, chane or party. A STRIKERS’ CLUS ORGANIZED FOR THE CAMPAIGN, Among other cheracteri-tic movements, schemes aud artifices to insure success to the Tammany nominee for Mayor ia December noxt, a now organization is talked of, Great infl © ig oxpecied from it, and numbers of volhnteers are offering their services.’ The organization will take the titie of Club, with a very appropriate and distin:tive appellation, It will be very seiect and limited in numbers.

[he principal object of the projectors, men of experience in the “siriking” business, is to reduce the principle of striking candidates for money to a system, and thus do away with some of tne objectionable fea- tures natural to an indspendent system of politica! bushwhacking. Some preliminary meetings have been already held aud a live of action laid down; at one of which mee: ft 19 understood a special com- mitige was appolated for the purpose of pre- paring a tari or schedule of prices for all the municipal offices, So much for the candidate for mayor; for candidates for county olfices, for ald men, councilmen, kc , regular charges, according value of the office, running through the whole camut; the strikers to support the candidates who first engage thoir services in any contest that may be goiug on, Is saif that Mayor Hoffman highly appreciated the idea whet suggested to him, and that he at once secured the servttes Of the club for the present campaign. It is not -by any means a glee ciub, but the members are sup- posed to sing in choras, with great harmony, the uur- sery rhyme of sing a song of sixpence, &c., ‘especially at ihese trmes, when the city pte is opened and they re- ceive therefrom the reward of their striking services, THK DECEMBEK ELEOTION—TH MAYORALTY, The present incumbent, John T. Hoffman, is determin. od to accept, or rather take, the vomiaation of Tammany Hail tor re-eiection. In fact, he is dovermined to run at all Lazards, notwithstanding that outside of the Mayoral ring, and the support of the offices and departments more particularly under tae control of the other genit of the ring, Sweeny, Tweed and a few others of that kid ney, be bas hardly the ghost of a combined support. His fate will be something similar to thdt of Gunther. As those two caine into power under somewhat sunilar Circumstauces, so will the last days sof each bear like comparison. Gunther camie in on the fu'l tide of a popular German vote, bat the returntag ebb loft tom bigh and dry, eiranded beyond reach of being evor sot again afloat, Oo the same popular German swell Hoffman was successfully launcied ; bat the tide is fast receding, and soon he wiil be a battered huil along- side of poor Godfrey Gunther. Both these men came into office with the unanimous voie of our German citi- zens, and with the same vote as unanimously expressed one his already yone out, and the ochor will go in De- cember next. One of the strongest German wards called a committee meeting Saturday nigut last in the foterest of Tammany and Hoffman, at which fifteen members were present; bat nothing could be done in that direction, a& thirteen of those present with very lito’ hesitation announced themseives opposed to Hoffman and in favor of any candidate best able to defeat him at the poils.

With regard to the slate for county offices, there is hardly any the feud runs bigh in the Tam- many ranks, Each more clearly and uomistakably convinces the present aspirants that no reliance can be placed upon the Hoffman, Sweeny and Tweed bina- tion. It 18 admitted among the candidates ives that they are at presemt but tools in the hands of the (hree necromancers who design at the fortal mo- ment to cry “hi, presto change,”’ and with’d wave of their magic wand will run other candidates to the poll. It is said among the most kuowing ones that they are averse to putting two ~ Irish. men on the county ticket, end shat in consequence Aldernian O’Brien may go whistle for the county clerkship. But there is some superstition attached to whistling, especially at sea, as no doubt Mr. O'Brien will be after his rejection, and sailors don’t like ‘amusement is apt to call up a storm. Mr. whistle on the occasion may make “the wild winds whistle and the billows roar’’ to an extent to shake old ‘Tammany to its foundations. Tho Irish olen will not like to find the ring thus discarding their favorite be- ‘cause be is an Irishman and by far the more popular of the two candidates roterred to—O’Brien and Shau- non. But when they iearn that both candidates wil! be sold to a “dark’? man—not necossarily dark in color but figuratively, a man who is kept in the baek- ground until the favorable moment arrives to bring him forward—it will go bard with them if they do not carry in O'Brien themselves. Tne ‘cute’ ones say there are two such dark men, one for the county clerk, and the other for sheriff. or two sinco at the City Hall Club, with much ceremony and, it not with dread incantations, with sundry exhilar- ating libations to tue success of old St. Tammany and the ticket, and a formal caucus fixed for rriday noxt, when the iat of tne ring will be announced The out- side organizations have not made out a slate ag yet for the county offices, preferring that Hoffman and company should first show their band. There is no change with regard to other offices. To fil! the vacancy in the Marine Court, Mr, George M. Carus is spoken of as the elect of ‘Tammauy Hall, though he claims also to have the sup- port of other outside organizations. Mr. Curtis is very popular, and would make a good run even on an inde- pendent ticket, THX STNATORIAL AND AS#KMULY CONTAST.

Jones, . threatens to run with or witneut the nomination, and already has issued his is throughout the district an- nouncing bimsclf as an indep-udent candidate. He is thus ahead of the slate, as he knows wel! that that slate will not bear his name upon it. The difficulty here, as between two Tammany men, is of graver interest to the ring than the mere question of the Senatorship itself, It implies a serious disraption as inevita- bie between Comptrolier Brennan, who has large interest in the district and the ebiefs of the Strect Department, Jones is the personal friend and confi- dential agent of Brennan, and the latter will uso ali hie influence to get bim elected over [weed, despite the fealty he owes to the ring. Mr. Ber Wood is not a can- didate, though bis name is much talked of in the ¢ trict in connection therew.th. There are also other didates talked of; bat the contest will be teft entirely between Tweed and Jones. It is understood that Thur. low Weed will use his infiuence in benalf of Tweed, and thus secure bim the republican votes of the district.
