Certainly not the Republicans,for he will enter Congress as their implacable foe, The red ban ners of the banderiUcros, shaken defiantly in the face of the bull in the amphitheatre of Ma- drid, do not more infuriate the animal and rouse him to fight even unto death than the countenanees of Prssmnpen, CONKLING, Howakp, Nye, and their Republican col- leagues in the Senate Chamber would in- flame the anger and invoko the “damnable iterations” of ANvY. Jounson, ‘To the De- mocrats, therofore, he must look for is fol- lowing. ’ Doubtless it would be a spectacle truly gratifying to the Democracy, both within and without the Capitol, to witness Jonson's onslaughts upon the Republicans; and if they could only contrive to h him open his oratorical botterics upon the cohorts of Grant's Administration, without being drawn into the mélée themaclyes, their joy would be unalloyed, But Jomnson is not the man to go to war at his own charges, nor to get upa fight merely for the benefit or amusement of others; and he will let the Democracy know at the very outset that he either rules or ruins, leaving them to find out in the end, perhaps, that he sometimes docs both. Self-reliant, self-willed, and combative ; courageous up to the point which little this side of actual peril; not deeti tute of valuable resources in debate ; with a rough, robust energy, which makes him not a desirable antagonist to grapple with; and smarting under the terrible excoriations of the men whom he would confront in the north wing of the Capitol, Jounson would infuse into the pro. ceedings of the Senate a goud deal of acri mony and turbulencs, to the amusement of some portions of the people and the diswust of others, This, however, would not satisfy Anny. He is nothing without something which he ean call my policy ;" and by sheer force of will and fertility of invention, he would commit the Democracy to a series of im practicable issues and disastrous measures, from which they could not escape without declining or even resisting his leadership, whereupon he would do his beet to cream vent and overwhelm them, If the Domoe racy of Tennessee can only be induced to send him back to Washington, he may in the future, as he has done in the past, ena ble the Republicans to win battles which they would otherwise be pretty sure to lose. They owe negro suffraye to him ; and their buceess in the next Presilentin! contest may possibly depend upon his election to the Benate, ee The Duty on Coal Consumers of anthracite coal complain and with ood reason, of its high price Paying per ton by the cargo, and $10 per ton at retail (which, when the difference of 240 pounds between the wholesale and retail ton is considered, is really $11 20) foran article which used to cost from $4 to $5, is rather tough, even upon an inflated cur rency, Out West asimilar complaint isimade of the advance in bituminous coal—the kind mainly used there. In consequence there ix ‘a clamorous demand for the repeal of the duty of $1.25 in gold now imposed upon for elgo coal, in order to let in, at a lower price than it can now be furnished at, the product of Nova Scotian and English mines, On a first statement the proposed remedy geems so effleacious that everybody is iu ~ 6 | The history of Ameri: | that quarter out of the question. The quali- | ty of the Nova Scotia coal is eo poor, and ite quantity so small, that it is no rival, here at the East, to anthracite, and the cot of trans portation will forever prevent its competing with the bituminous conl of the West. At this very moment, while anthracite is selling in this city at $8.75 per ton, and scarce at that, Nova Scotia coal can be bought at Cre conclusive evidence of the intrinsic difference in value of the two, For domestic purposes, indeed, no one would uso Nova | Scotia coal asa gift. It makes auch a amc | and dirt and so mach ashes, that it is voted @ nuisanco by every housckeeper who has tried it. And as to the seanti- ness of its supply, it Is enough to eay that while the total production of coal of all kinds thracite, bituminous, and sermi-bitumi nous—in Pennsylvania andthe adjacent re- gion is about 18,000,000 tons annually, and in | . Indiana, Miinois, and other States, at least 7,000,000 more, the product of the Nova Scotia mines is only 800,000 tons! Our readers ean judge what effect upon prices will bo caused by the addition of 900,000 | tons, even of the best coal, to a stock of 25,000,000. If appreciable at all, it would not exceed, at the utmost, five cents per ton It will, of course, be said that if the duty were taken off, more coal would be mined in Nova Scotia, and thus the reduc tion of price be greater. There is some reason for this eupporition, In the days when Nova Scotia conl was free of duty, | the production did once run up to one million tons. But then, again, another fact must be | taken into consideration. Z'he principal cus. | tomers for Nova Scotia coal are the gaa com panies. Nearly the whole of the three hun- | dred thousand tons now imported annually * purchased by thom, and if one million | tons were Imported, they would certainly take one-half of it, leaving ouly five hundred thousand tons for other consumers. The preposition to repeal the duty is then virtue ally to deprive the revenue of the $1.25 gold per ton now collected from three hundred | thonsand tons annually— $375,000 gold in | all—for the benofit of a set of grasping cor: | porations already gorged with plunder, Now, these are plain facts, which every ono can verify by inquiry. Tis SUN would be | glad to advoeate any monaure for the redue- tion of the price to the public of so impor. tant a necessary as con!, but it must tell the truth, and not delude its readers, It is per- foctly plain to us that this outery against the duty on imported coal ia partly the re- eult of ignorance but a good deal more the result of the intrigues of the gas making mo- nopolists of the country, who would be very glad to use the pretended needs of the peo- ple awa catspaw to pull their own chestnuts out of the ——— - The Usurers—The Sentences, Jude Cannozo has fearlessly done his dut He has exeented the law against usury, and fined six members of leading firms in Wall street, and has both flued two others and sentenced them to imprisonment—one for five days, and one for ton days, in the City Prison, As the law stands, Judge Cannoz0 could hardly have done otherwise. So long as the law against usury exists, and anybody sees fit to enter complaints against those who violate it, and defendants deem it Dest to plead guilty to Sudictments found ainst them in pursuance of its provisions, there is nothing left for an upright Judy but to sentence them to pay fiues or suf imprisonment, or both, as he shat! deom just Vhough strictly legal, these proceeding are extraordinary, ‘True, by special statute, it is the duty of a Judge of the Oyer and Terminer to always charge the Grand Jury to take notice of violations of the usury laws, and the Courts invariably so charge ; but Grand Juries long ayo ceased to pay any heed to these monitions, treating them a8 mere matters of form. But it seems that the law is to be put in force in this city, and we therefore warm Wall street, and all tho banks and other money lenders, to be on their guard, for, a cording to the strict letter of the statute, there is hardly one of them that does not daily violate its provisions. They should more. over bear in mind that whenever they are driven to a civil suit 9 nst any of their borrowers, the plea of usury isa perfect de fenee to the action. ‘The imprisonment of so conspicuous a citi ven as the Hon, Russent Sace will arrest general attention, He bas heen a prominent politician, was long an Alderman. of Troy and Treasurer of the county of Rensselaer, was amember of Congress from that district, and rendered essential services in securing the election of Mr, Banks to the Speaker ship of the House, who made him a momber of the Committee of Ways and Means. He was also for many years a Director of the New York Central Railroad, and the personal friend of Dean Ricumonp and TuKktow Wer, and stands among the wealthy men of this metropolis, But none of these things seem to have shaken Judge Canpozo's par pose to execute the law, Doubtless these transactions will lead to efforts for the repeal or essential modifi tion of a statute to which go many of our Dankers and men of wealth are opposed. — Docs Gen, Grant Keep the Promise of hiv Inaugural?

Does it injure the chancos of Mr, Convax, oF Mr. Srwann, or Judge Onase, or Mr. Hexnricns, to chronicle their movements and those of their friends in their behalf? Not at all.
