President Grant came down to the Senate yesterday, and spent severa) hours there lob- bying Senators in behalf of the Dominican annexation treaty. ‘This is the first time in the history of this country that the President has gone to the Capitol to employ personal solicitation as a means of obtaining the votes of members of either House for a measure in which he might happen to be interested, It is certainly not @ dignified proceeding ; but as it is not for. hidden Ly the Constitution, it is not necessary to object to it. But itis to be desired that the President should resort to this kind of influence only in meritorious cases, Such this Doffijnican treaty is not. It is a job, and-is full of iniquity. Fraud is stamped upon all its features. It is de- signed to cheat the people of the United States out of both honor and money ; and its pecuniary dishonesty is something enormous, The nature of the swindle has been 80 well and ¢0 widely exposed, that it is hard to un. derstand how Gen. GRANT should now iden- tify himself with such a transaction. If there was nothing in this scheme of an- Nexation that was intended to defraud the United States, the treaty ought still to be Tiere is a civil war in St To annex that republic at present is to take this civil war upon our Domingo. selves, Spain—a much greater power than the United States in the estimation of Gen.

The Western candidate for in announcing his ereed before a throng of voters, wound up by declaring himeelf in favor of the next war, was a shrewd politi- cian. ‘The majority of the people of the United States never forgive a party that opposes a war, or assails the propriety of the meas ures that led to it, or beliitles the value of the fruits reaped in the contest ongrees who, So irrevoca. ble has been the public judgment, so inflexi De the popular will on this subject, that every party which could ever be convicted ot dereliction of duty in respect to a war, has been compelled either to disappear from the arena of politics, or to radically reorganize itself by modifying its creed, changing its Jeaders, and even assuming a new The Federal party opposed th Sirveuson and the war of Manson eml taining its full share of the ‘alents and vir. tues of the country, and alle to point tc Liany ominent nanies among nevertheless fell f ts leaders, it o such disrepute, because unpatriotic side in our con.

The fate of the Federal and Whig parties ehould teach lessons fall of warning to the Democratic patty. It stands today on the brink of thechasm where the Federal party stood in 1816, having learned nothing from the past, and where the Whig party stood in 1852, peering doubtfully into the fatnre. By pushing Llindly onward, the Federalists plunged into the gulf and disappeared. The Whig party likewise went under; but the great body of its members, by refasing to longer follow unpopular guides, by hastily withdrawing from their dangerous position, by linking their fortunes with bolder if not wiser politicians, and by raising a fresh ban- ner with new devices, lived and triumphed. An unpopular taint has fastened upon the reputation of the Democratic party because of the unpatriotic attitude as sumed by many of fts leaders and some of its rank and file during the war for the suppression of the rebellion, ‘Their saym- pathies and moral stpport were given to the wrong in a contest that moved the hearts of the vast majority of the people of the North more deeply than the hearts of any other people lave been moved tn this con tury. But even now these Copperheads seem not to have the faintest conception of the iesues at stake, nor of the indignation their conduct aronsed, in a war that involved the existence of the Republic. Like the Federal- ists, they cannot blot ont the!t record, and their leaders refase to abdicate their position a8 managers of the party. Two courses lie open to the patriotic masse of the Democracy, Through luck of courage, or from a desire to spare the feclings of the Copperhead magnates who have placed the party in a false position, they can allow themselves to be dragged onward, like the Federalists of 1812-16, and fall into the abyss where they perished ; or, emulating the ex- ample of the liberal Whigs of 1854-5, they can repudiate a stale creed and reactionary organization, and, by coalescing with portions of the Republican party, once more achieve power in the nation, For four years past the Republicans have triumphed through the blunders, the infatua tion of their opponents, from whose councils common sense scems to have disappeared. Like a battered pugilist in the prize ring, the Democratic party has been so often knocked senseless to its corner by a skilful, audacious antagonist, that ite brain is paralyzed, while its courage oozes away at the fingers’ ends. If it hopes for future triumph in the country, or even for a healthy existence as a national organization, its intelligent and progressive members, its honest masses, must rise and haul down its craven flag, and Crive ite Cop- perhead leaders entirely out of the arena. brian’ “Sta Outrages upon American Citizens in St. Domingo.

Ginny and James R. Aanen think on this subject ? —— The Fistt organs have been instructed to announce that the International Cable Congress proposed by Gen. Grant, is favorably considered by foreign nations. France, however, has posi- tively declined to join @ Congress of the kind, and foreign Governments generally are reluctant to renounce their supertision over telegraphic sub- marine despatches, particulatly in times of revo- lution and war. Moreover, a compact now exists between European Governments for the purpose suggested by Gen, Guaxt, and they think it more desirable for the United States to join a convention already in existence than to form a new one under exclusively American anspices. That nexotiathons are proceeding out of courtesy to the American Government is very well known ; but their result, so far as Get, Gnaxr’s pro- gramme is concerned, #8 far from being as assured as the Fis organs would intimate, It would no doubt be desirable to see the sanetity of private and official despatches secured by treaty obliga- tions ; but before subjecting himself to» fat or a conditional refisal by foreign Powers, Mr. Fist would have acted wisely in firct senwing their consent through the diplomatic agents of the United States, instead of fishing m the dark, and battling in vain against the well-known proju- dices of European States.

VESTERDAY, SalariosTh w they Sitctne Of the Cou Kateed Money to Cn Fleetion—Ouly Two Democrats Against Expulston. Wasmrsctox, March 17.—Senator Carpenter's resolution fora more equal distribution among the States of clerkships in the Government departments tame upin order, Mr. Sawren (Rep., 8. ©.) said that many pertons acquired a residence in Washing- ton simply because of the frellity afforded by that means for obtaining employment from the Govern- ment, Some of these were practically Government paupers and thronged every avenue to employment, to the exelnsion of others more worthy and capa- bie. The necessity for the resolution was shown in the great excess of appointments from a certain sec- tion of the country over ail others; one single Con- gressional district in acertain Northern State having more appointments in the Executive Department than have all the reconstructed States combined: He knew of one Representative in the House who had been instramental in pot ting into the Departments here no less than Feventeen clerks, and who went to complain because Le could not get another; and yet when gentlemen from States which had not a falr representation an- plied for appointments, they were told that there were no vacancies to be filled, and that thore who were in conld not be turned ont, heeause it would create a storm about the ears of the Administration If in any part of the country the Hepublican party needed DOLSTERING BY OFFICIAL PATRONAGE, it was in the South, and he favored such a distribu. tion of it as would’ most effectively strengthen the Administration, Mr. STEWART (Kep., Nev.) preferred to let the District of Columbia lave ail the patronage rathe: than that any Invitation should be lied ont to young men to come to Washington for employment. ‘The condition of many of those who came. for that par. pore should be a warning to others, Many of them were not only too poor fo get away, but had Tost atl ambition, He thought that four or'five years clerk. ship here unfitted a young man for anyt {ing else. Mr, SAWYER enggested that the effect of fixing definitely the nam) er of apnotntments to which the Stuies and the District o: Columbia were entitled, might be to DRIVE AWAY THE PAUPEE Mr. STEWART replied that some of them bad been here eiwht or ten years, thot they had learned this routine of Department ‘w and had no means of learning any other bueine Mr, Canprnren (Rep , Wi tion, but finally agreed to ite ‘THE TRERITORY OF OKLATIONA, Mr. Tuck (Rep., Ark.) infrodneed a bill to organ. int the Territory of Ok-M-ho-dia, and consolidating the dion trines unter a territo ‘The now territory is bounded north by by New Mexico and Texas, south by by Arkansas and Missonti.
