It is sheer nonsense to declaim about mili tary satrapics in th vith, the disfranchine. ment of traitors, and the enfranchisement of negroes. ( According to the letter of the law, as it existed at the time, every man who took ‘up arms against the Government, or aided and abetted the rebellion, incurred the pen alty of death. To deprive the leaders in the great conspiracy of 1861 of the right of hold ing office, and to reconstruct by the military arm the States they practically overthrew, is a punishment so mild and unprecedented that it will challenge the admiration of posterity. Tho bestowal of the right of suffrage upon those who remained loyal to the Union in the South during the war is due quite as much to the blind obstinacy of the rebels in the now Sceretary of the Navy, was to tele graph to Admiral Horr to send home the steamer Tallapoosa from Cuba, as he requires | that veosel “ for a pleasure party of high offl- cial." Of course, if any number of high | officinisat Washington wish to gro on a plees® j ure party, it is proper for the Seeretary of | the Navy to give them a ehip for the pur pose, ond to go with them on their frolic. | That is much cheaper to them than it would | be to hire a eteamer and pay for it out of | thetr own pockets, Perhaps it may be owing \ bo the aleence of the Tallapoosa on this ple Ant business that Admiral Horr is not able to imitate the example of Commodore Pur Limone and go about saving the lives of Americans who have fallen into the mu ous hands of the voluntecrs, If this be the | reason, it ix all right. — Coy.

Garvin, at present District Attorney, and srospectively—in the event of Gov, Hore tion—Attorney-Goneral of tho United States Gov, Horrstan waa first nominated in the old Tammany Building, now the Sun Building, by Tim Sen. / The mn of supporting him is one which we now have under serious consideration, He has a handsome moustache, but not as hand. some aa Judge Barxann's, What his other principles are we have not yet been Informed. Mr. Ganvin would make a good Attorne General, and likes his own ease well enough to show that he is aman of positive tastes, ‘ antl \ Will Mr. Brewster Succeed Judge Hoar t The Washington correspondent of the Boston Post persiats in the report that Judge Hoan will soon leave the Cabinet, and that the Hon. B, H. Brewster of Pennsylvania will succeed him, This assertion derives a color of trath from the fact that Massaach u- setts already has two men inthe Cabinet and Penneylvania has none; and it is also probably trne that Judge Hoan is not per fectly at case with a President who overrules his decisions on legal questions, ‘The same i} | | | an repudiacing the Fourteenth Amendment, which loft that matter in their own hands, as to the logitimate operation of that genu ine democratic principle which recognizes the equality of all men before the law. The clamor of a portion of the Democratic leaders against those legitimate results of an unsuctessful rebellion only tends to pro- correspondent says that Gon. GRant at first desired to appoint Mr. Brewster as Attor- ney-General, but refrained because he feared “his habits were not sufficiently temperate, ete.” What the writermeans by this ete, he docs not intimate, but the imagination of the reader naturally concludes that it must be something dreadful. voke and keep in active operation the hostil- ity against the party of that great majority of the people who continued true to the Goy- ernment during its sore trials, If the Democratic masses would consult the best interests of their party, they would sternly insist that these malcontents fall into. its rear ranks and be thankful that they were allowed to vote its tickets in modest silence. Expecially should they demand that the traitors who plunged the country into the war, and thus brought upon the peo- ple all the horrors and losses of that contest, ud upon the party a series of unparalleled defeats, should not be permitted to dictate its platforms and select its candidates till they have done works meet for re the loyal members of the party have aecept- ed this leason for themselves, and enforced it upon the noisy and arrogant, butsmall and inconsiderable disloyal minority, they will continue to encounter what they will richly desorve—disyrace nnd disaster, The weakness of the Republican part not found on the field we have been survey ing. On the contrary, that Is the very cita del of its strength. But the poiits whenee its chief danger eprin fol: first, ventance, sare twoful | the wide-spread dissatisfaction with the ad ministration of Gen, Grant, which exists to 60 alarming an extent among the active members of the party because of his failare to redeem pledges and meet just expecta tions; and secondly, the near approach of the completion of the work of reconstruc- tion, to secure which sufficed to draw to his support three or four hundred thousand voters upon whose limbs the bonds of party hang very lightly, aud who will be apt to throw them oi so soon as that object is attained. The course which these two classes of Re. publicans shall pursue in the autumnal elec tions will determine the conclusion of the conflict, If the Administration persev in its wayward course, and if the Democracy succumls to its blind guides, they will prob. ably not vote at all—the result being, at this #tage of the canvass, purely conjectural If, however, the Democracy should, by a sagacious and liberal policy, win respectable portion of these disintegrated Materials, iis triumph will be sure. Paradosical, then, as it may seem, the re its of the fall elections are in the hans of isfied and the dissatisfied Republicane —, Government Vessels for Plousure Parti The Timea calls on the Administration to do something for the protection of American citizens in Cuba against the outra which they ted by the Spanish poldiery, The case of # sailor is mentioned Delonging to the brig Graposhot, who was left on shore near Santiago de Cuba by th sudden departure of the vessel, He hed r connection with the filibusters, and sur Fendered himeelf to the Spanish troops the moment they arrived, He was executed without trial, notwithstanding the zealouy efforts of the American Consul in his bel On the other hand, the same journal relates that when an Englishman was thrown into prison at Matanzas on some similar charge, Commodore Potion’ demanded his Tease, and the Governor agreed to let him gi ‘The volunteers, however, threatened to kill lum the moment he should leave the prison The Commodore then went ashore with all his officers and took the prisoner safely on board his flag ship. This is the difference between the British and the American #an- nerof protecting the citizens of the respec: ‘tive countries, But while the British naval commander is thus occupied, the Ameri Admiral on that station is busy gathering information from the Spanish officials to prove that the Cubans cannot possibly gain their freedom, ‘To forward news of (his sort te Washington is much more important than to save » few Americaus from being over t the wa are now sal The World aleo states that one of the first PMicial acta of the Hon. Guonor M. Rowrson, We beg to suggest to Gen. Grant that thero is one question connected with Mr. Buewerer’s professioual aud personal char- acter of a more serious nature than even this “ete,” and that it ought to be cleared up before he is appointed to any office of trust under the Government. Mr. Brrw- ster has publicly avowed that he furnished money to Joun Resse Youna and his partners in Philadelphia, at the time th wets engaged in a conspirney to de: fraud the Associated Press. He haa also avowed his warm sympathy with Youse and his fellow conspirators, Tho question is, Did Mr. Brewster know at the time that they were engaged in such a conspiracy? And if he did not know it, would it not be proper for him now to disclaim all approbation and Knowledge of thelr nv And if he does not disclaim such knowledge as publicly as he has declared that he fur nished them the money with which, as it now appears, their conspiracy was carried on, will not the public be authorized to form the con- clusion that he still approves of their larious transactions? On this subject we trust that Gen, Grane will take care to have the fullest satisfnetion before tenders any office to Mr. Brrw- sven. He ought also to require that Mr. Breweren should explain it publicly, so as to remove the doubt which the statements he has already made have ereated in the puble mind. Otherwise both he and Mr. Biewsren will find that this matter will in- velve more future injury to them than any vague “ ete,” which may imply all kinds of disagreeable things, but about which no- thing specifically discreditable is gencrally understood, u a Another Candidate for President.
