On the 24th of March last, more than six wecks ago, the Legislature of Massachusetts officially brought to the notice of the public the fuct that Joun Bancrort Davis, Assis: tant Secretary of State of the United States, had, somo three years previously, while a Director of the Brie Railway Company, re toived a bribe of $60,000 to betray his trust and to sell out the interest of the Erie Rail- way Company to another corporation, This damning fact was proved by varied testi- mony, and was sworn to ly Joun 8. Er bringer, President of the Company in whose behalf Davis was bribed. Though ample time has elapsed since this exposure, made by the Leg slature of one of the lending States of the Union, upon evi- dence that neither Davis nor any one of his friends has yet dared to impeach, neither the Presipext nor Mr. Haminron Fis has taken auy notice of it; nor has the fact re. coived attention from cither House of Con- grees nor from any prominent newspaper organ of the Republican party. It would thus seem to be unanimously admitted by all of these representa- tives of the great political organization which has eo long governed the country, that a man may be dissraced with the pro- ven shame of bribery and corruption, of sell ing bimeel! for money to commit a breach of trust, and may yet be a fit and proper person to exercise one of the most important offices of the Government, There cannot be a more astonishing exhibition of the corruption which has gained such foothold in our poli- tice, and of the indolent indifference with which even honest men tolerate the propo. sition that the groseest readiness to take bribes 'e no bar against the porsession of high public henors and authority. , We now learn from Washington that it is probable that Mr. Hamiiron Frsit will not much longer remain iu the State Department, and that he is to be Bucceeded by the Hon. Lor M. Mort of Maine. This chango will be grateful to thocountry. Mr. Mon- RILL is not merely a man of ability, of broad and comprehensive views, and of expericn in political affairs, a leader of the Republican party, and « power among the people, but he is also an honest man. More than this, he has always evinced a delicate regard for his bw reputation and a jealous respect for the honor of his country. If he should become Becretary of State, Mr. Joun Bancnorr Davis will probably remain in the Depart- ment no lonyer than will be requisite to no- tify him of his dismissal, ee The Needs of the Democracy—A Policy and a Leader. Daring sixteen years of its existence the Republican party has done the work of an ordinary halt century in the history of nalitics, talondar, it 15 time it was beaten by its opponent, And so it would be in the next Presidential elec if the Democracy had a wise and consistent policy, and a skilful and courageous leader. Ever since the issues were raised on which recent battles have been fought, every stand taken by the Democracy hae, after a short. sharp skirmish, been followed by a disorder. fy retreat. For example, when the Southern Btates bogan to withdraw frora the Union, Bnd the North awoke from its lethargy for tho vindication of the national flag, Domo: cratic leaders and journals protested against the doctrine of coercion, and dvclared that not a regiment should enter the South till it had passed over the bodies of millions of Democrats, But, cre six months had elapsed, Democratic chieftains, in the language of Gen, Loaan, were hewing their @ay to the Gulf with their swords, When the contest had made it apparent that slavery must be destroyed in order to preserve the Union, and Mr, Lingoun lasued the Einancipation Proclamation, the ery rang through the land that the Dem- cratic party would never consent to such an unconstitutional invasion of the rights of the Bouth, and that the war was not waged for the benefit of niggers.” But, as the com- bat deepened, the great mass of the Demoe- racy became practical abolitionists, and finally acquiesced in the engrafting of the popular will upon the Constitution in the form of the Thirteenth Amendment, which forever prohibits slavery in the republic. The war being over, President Jonsson began the work of reconstruction, But Con. gress soon took the matter under ite exclu. Bive control, and proclaimed that the Presi dent had no authority in the premises; and they struck out a plan of reconstruction and embodied it in the proposed Fourteenth Amendment, accompanied by an act which made itacondition that ere any insurgent Btate could be fully restored to the Union it must adopt a constitution conferring the right of suffrage upon negrocs, ‘The De. mocracy took their stand againet thie poll donoancing it through all the notes of th gamut of vituperation, the New York World Junding the pack hy declaring with foaming lip that the Southern blacks would never be allowed to vote, but cast a would be Measured by the {| slaughtered should they dere approach the hustings with the ballot in their hands. Bat the elections of 1866 took the noise ous of this theatrical thunder; the Fourteenth Amendment in due time became a part of the Constitution ; and after the colored voters car ried Virginia and Tennessee against the Re- publicans, the World began to think that nogto euffrage in the South wasa pretty good thing after all. And so the whole party re- trented in disorder from a lost battle field. And flow ardent Republicans began to in- ist upon a Fifteenth Améndment, grant: ing the suffrage to all men everywhere {rre- spective of color. With one united shout the Democracy declared that this was “the Inst ditch,” and that they would conquer in its defence or fall upon their own swords. And on this issue they fought the Presiden. rr SNe got duo time this amendment was proclatmec part of the fundamental Jaw; and lo, the Democracy, after muking very wry face, kissed the rod thas scourged them, and are perhaps now drawing consolation from the fact that, inasmuch as the negro hos turned out to be a repeater in asmall way at the recent election in this city, they may by-and-by make something out of him, At all events, the whole party, with here and there a noisy and uninfluen tial exception, has given up the fight on the Fifteenth Amendment. But, that terrible law of Congress to en- force the amendment! That is the last ditch, and there the party 1a now intrench- ing itself; only, however, in all probability, to be routed therefrom, as it Las heretofore leon driven from one point to another during the long eeries of defcats end retreate which have marked ite carecr for the past ten years. This novel plan of seeking for ultimate victory by ingloriously retreating from every contested point has been strikingly ills trated during the past winter and epring in the foremost Democratic State of the Union. For » doven years the Democracy of New York have been denouncing the Republicans because they had deprived this city of the right of self-government, ruling it by Com- missions created by the Legislature. Gradu- ally increasing in strength on this {ssue, the Democracy finally got control of all branches of the State government, when, instead of repudiating the Republican policy in regard to this city, they adopted all of its most ob- jectionable anti-democratic features, and adde@ thereto still more odious oligarchical features of their own devising! And this was the ripest and almost the only fruit of the so-called Democratic victory of 18691 Have not the Democrats had enough of this? Do the rank and file of the party not see that they are led by men who, either from lack of capacity or integrity, are wholly unfit forthetask? If the honest masses of the De- mocraey wish for a national vietory, let they insist upon a new policy and new leaders with- out a moment's delay, lest, after one more Presidential election, they find their party floating down the stream to join company with the remains of the old Federal, Anti- Masonic, Whig, and Know-Nothing parties aie Spotted Tail and his Great Father. Who has ever fathomed tho inner life of the aboriginal mind? Where is the inter viewer who has elicited from the depth of Srorrep Tari’s soul the Indian Chief's real opinion about the white men’s chieftain? The reports which have so far reached the public of the conference between the red brave and his quadrennial Father are sit larly scanty, All that can be gathered from them is that Srorrev Tai met Attorne Gencral Hoan in the White House, and that the learned jurist hastily left the Executive presence after having taken a shuddering glance at the disturber of the Western peace. Gen. Grant, being known to the red men as their Great Father, whatever that may mean, impressed him duly no doubt with a sense of paternal devotion, though there is no evi- dence to show the existence of any real feel ing of the kind inthe President's bosom. On the whole, itis a matter of fuir doubt whether Srorren 'TAtL went away a more filial and a more conciliatory Indian than he came, If the President had gathered around his throne Admiral Ronson, Secretary Porier, and Sceretary Davis, who go successfully apy led Indian tactics to the conquest of the Erie Rail. way, come impression might have been pro- duced upon Srorrep Tai, especially by Sceretary Davis, But as the matter was managed, it isto be feared that if the great Sioux dared to express his inn tions, he would pronounce the Great Father A preat bore. Let us hope for a Letter success with Rep Croup and his suite. They are to be tak in hand hy the Great Father to-day. —-—-———_—$ ‘he alliance between Russia and no secret to aitentive observers of Eastern affuirs.” The Khedive would never have displayed so much pluck if he hid not been becked up by Russia, and if he bad not also some reason to count upon the support of France, Russia is not e from her traditional policy, ana ptian confifet affords a flue opportunity, ch the Ewperor ALEXANDER seems inclined to improve, Great Britain, with her complica- tious with the United States and fn Ireland, and with the Russian rivalry for Asiatic supremsey, is for the present ina most perplexing condition, which is exceedingly encouroging to the Russian, Trench, and Egyptian enterprises, —— The State election in Oregon takes place today, State officers, members of the Legista- ture dd a member of Congress are This Legistature will el a Un tor in the place of the Hon, Groner tt, Winttams, whose termn of office expires on the 4th of Merch next.
