To carry the next House of Representatives, ‘and more especially the next Presidency, the Republicans need a new hold on the people's hearts. The tic that has bound together the incongruous elements of which the party has beon composed since the outbreak of the war is dissolved, and some other bond of union is how indispensable to prevent the organiza- tion falling in pieces, ‘The Cuban question, and tho atill greater find broader propositions on which that question is based, rose as if providen- tially to afford the very materials for this new bond of union, But the majority of the Republicans in Congress, instead of eagerly seizing and appropriating these materials, are diepored to recklessly throw them away, or to burter them for promises of office for thensely ‘The Cuban question is not new in its na- ture. It is essentially the same as the Amer- ean Revolution of 1776. It is the struggle pf an American people to be relieved of Eu- ropean tyranny. Such o struggle always receives the sympathy and support of every American heart. ‘This is particularly true of Cuba, because the oppressions and Wrongs to which she has been sub- Jected infinitely transcend any ever Inflicted upon any British colony, in the worst period of history, There is also another powerful impulse in this caso, Ii * a determination of the people of the United Btates that at no distant period European domination shall cease in every part of the North American continent and its depen- Bencles. While our people will not prematurely hasten the solution of this problem, they nevertheless will insist that the issuo shall never be evaded, Lut be manfully met, and ‘ettled on its merits, whenever it arises in a tase like that of Cuba, The Administration, yielding to the base counsels of Stoney Wensirn ond HamriTon Fisu, ekulks from this irsue; and it is this exhibition of the white feather, at the de- mand of a bankrupt, third-rate European power, which is arousing the indignation of syery free spirit in the land, and dividing and ruining the Republican party. Honest and brave mea who do not wear the collar vf the Administration are ashamed of its Ppusillonimous course, which they know is the joint product of eupidity and cowardice. Had the Republican party been guided by ordinary sagacity, it would have pressed into Mts service the indomitable love of freedom ‘and the passion for the early exclusion of forcign rule from the Western Hemisphere. But the Cubinet and the Republican majority in Congress have worse than refused to take ndvantage of it. Because Hamiiton Pisn's son-in-law gets seventeen thousand dollars In gold at a time from Spain, Congress and the President have fallen on their knecs and kiesel a sceptre that is so foul and fecble that even the European adven- turers to whom it is freely offered spit upon 4t with contempt. The halting of the Republicans in Con- gress will not arrest the march of American prisciples on this continent. The sons of Cuba will achieve thelr freedom by them. welyes, amid bloodshed and desolation, The movement for human rights will go on and triumph, but the Republican party will be Jeft far in the rear, with Grant and Frsit nnd a mass of such dead material on its de- vayiog bi ————___ _— Nothing like Foolishness. Next to the corruption of President Grant's rule, the most striking feature of hie administration is its folly, ‘The corrup- tion is evinced in appointments of men to ‘oflice in consideration of presents, The folly 4s evinced in the appointment of men like Bonrr, Rourson, and ACKERMAN. ‘The time was when Gen. Grant had com. ‘mon sense, and displayed it in a remarkable degree, ‘This was when he was an unpre- fending soldicr. Since then he has become ‘great man, and flattery and lucre have ‘turned his head, Then he was not above following the advice of a man of noble in- ‘tellect and character, like Joun A, RAWLINS, Now, if he follows any one’s advice, it is that of creatures like DENT. * One of the greatest acts of folly which the President has committed is the nomination of Amos T. ACKERMAN as Attorney-General, - sas “4 ‘The Spani Some two weeks ago news reached us by telegraph from Madrid that Mr. Monet, tho Colonial Minister, had introduced a Dill into the Cortes for the gradual abolition of slav- ery in all Spanish colonies. The terms of the bill, as condensed for telegraphic trans- Mission, were sufficiently clear to convince ns that the projected plan of gradval eman- sipation was but aschome of the Spanish Blavcholders to stave off the evil day, and possibly to deceive the plilanthropists of the world into the belicf that their intentions ‘were honest, We are now in possession of the bill itself, and our impressions are more than cou firmed. The telograph informed us orig’ nally that children born of slave mothers Bfter tho 18th of September, 1363, the day of the rising of Cadiz, wero to be free, Arti- eles 6,7, 8, and 9 of the bill give the owners of the slave mothers power over the children until the lattor aro twenty-two yoara of age. ‘The owners are to care for, feed, and clothe ‘the young negroes ; but in retarn, these slaves mothers isto be transmissible. Of courge, no slave in the hands of a Spaniard would ever have it in his power to prove his age. Slaves over sixty-five years of age, whom Mr. Monet calls “the veterans of labor,” aro to be free—that is, the owner is not bound to clothe and feed a human machine whose power is worn out. Theaged and exhausted slave is tobe free—to starve. pennant The Income Tax The Union League Club on Thursday evening adopted, with some modifications, the excellent resolutions upon this subject which we published the other day. What is essential in them is the following : Reoleed, That the vet of Congress p the incon. tax © shall be levied until and inclading 1-7), and no longer,” fe a solemn commct with the people, Which good Inith requires sould be sacrediy observed. Hesolved, That in this country labor ean in no sense be ronsidered capttal entject to taxation, and that there i vow no ituminent peril to the pub- Ve credit requiring that salories, wages, and labor in its varions forms shall be sutjected to onerous, dis- eriminating, and ingwisitortal taxation, Reroteed, That nn income tax, as embodied in the bill whieh’ recently passed the House of Represen- tatives, upon income derived from profits of in trode business, or in the form of invested property, and levied solely apon income above Ung of exemption which in fuct exempta more than four-flths of the income of the same class of accu. maiated wealth t to the tax, and which Will be imposed upon less than 100,000 persons, ts an act of arbitrary exaction, violaling the great and fandamental principle of equality of all before the law, and wholly unwarranted in the present peaceful ‘and pro#perous condition of the country. Theee aro the most sensible ideas that have been put forth upon this subject since the discussion began. If they had emanated from any man conspicuous in politics or prominent in the Administration, as, for in- stance, Secretary Bourwert, they would have gone far to make him President. ‘The proposition that labor ought to be en- threly exempt from taxation is one worthy of the highest praise. It is a kind of axiom, a eelf-cvident truth ; and he would be a bold man who should undertake to dispute it. This principle being admitted, it follows that all wages and salaries should be exempt from taxation ; and that the bill which has passed the House of Representatives sins against the essential principles of political science, If an income tax is to be levied at all, it is manifest that it ought only to be imposed von the profits of capital invested either in real estate or in trade or business. To such a tax there shold be no exception whatever, What justice is theré 'n taxing capital in one form and exempting it in av- other? Labor ought to be free from tax: tion, and all capital ought to be taxed ; and the exception of any claes of capital amounts to robbery and confiscation of the other classes from which the tax is exacted, Let the Senate, when it comes to act upon this question, give heed to these simple and true principles, and the result will be more creditable than that which has been reached ine that Sale of Cadetships—Further Investigas tion Demanded.

It purports to be published in London by Atrnep Rrcuarnsox; but the imprint is that of a firm of privters in Brussels. Its mis: sion seems to be to rake among the public and private doings of public men in England, and hold them up to the knowledge of the world. How far this purpose is honestly discharged, and how far the Plain Speaker is merely a vebicle of ealumny and exaggeration, we have no means of knowing. Among the contents of the last num- ber is along letter addressed to Mr. Guapstoxs on Fovoiga Office agencies, the allegations in which, if true, show an advanced state of corrup- tion in English politics quite equal, if not supe- rior, to anything ever complained of on this side of the water. According to this letter, a certain Mr, Jony Broweut, under cover of a clerkship ia the Foreign Office, has perfected a most exten- He employs many spies and helpers, whose fidelity he is said to re- ward with lucrative posts and unauthorized pen- sions. It is charged that Mr, Broweut makes a practice of eclling foreign embassics for a per- centage upon the salaries attached to them, He is also said to be in partnership with the Chief Clerk and Assistant Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs; and it is alleged that they all three have traded jointly and severally in pub- lie salaries and appointments during the last eleven years, Candidates for diplomatic and consular places who pay Binweut are said to be relieved from the necessity of qualifying them- selves for any examination as to capacity or character, The amount of pension paid to any minister or consul on his retirement from active life is said to be regulated by the amount of his private payments to Mr. Binwett during bis term ofc The fees exacted by British consuls are often greatly increased in order to provide the means of making their contributions to Bin- watt, The Abyssinian war is also said to have been caused by the avt of one of Bivwene's as- sistants, who intercepted the Queen's corre- spondence with King Tavonons; and the same official is said to have been mainly in fault about the massacres in Crete. One of the most remark- able allegations of the Plain Speaker we quote entire as follows © Mr, Enskrnn, ow British Envoy, Mr. Govip, See- retary of Legation, and Mr. Satis ond aecreuary at Athens, who are reaponsible lor the diplomacy which has just ended in a dreadful massacre, were all appointed by the influence of Mr, Biowett, and continne up to this day to pay an annuity out of th one of them had ever been em ployed in Greece previous to their nomination 10 the high and responsible offices above mentioned." Although these allegations are put forth anon- ymously, they would certainly seem to calk for @ prompt explanation from the parties accused If the charg: not true, they form one of the grossest libels ever publisued, and their author should be detected and made to suffer, If there in any truth in them, it ought to be fully establish- 4 before the world, no matter what may be its effect upon the ruling classes in England or upon individuals prominent in Chureh or State, ieee From various Spanish papers and private letters we compile the following account of what we believe to be the facts regarding the landing of the G, B, Upton's cargo in Cuba, ‘The tand- ing of the whole cargo was probably effected on the night of the 24th ult. at Punta Brara, a nar, row peninsula between the harbors of Nuevas THE SUN, SATURDAY, JUN, ighteen men.

Bingham was not originally in favor of Cuba, but on examining the question thoroughly he became convinced of the justice of the repub- lican cause, and up to yesterday was counted on that side.

It is true he has an excuse for his action, and it may t railuble one in partisan circles, On being asked to withdraw bis amend. ment, he said he dare not, Je offered it to pre- tent the Republican party Jrom going to pieces? Yes; such was the feeling in favor of Cuba until the President's Spanish message came 1, that any opposition other than that of the Ad. ministration would nmanded the Aanox Buna, but said nothing about the martyrs to Cuban liberty. Neither did he allude to the wars of independence of the other Spanish colo- nies which culminated in the acknowledgment of their national existence. Poor forgetful Fisn! — Mr. J. H. McGuone, a promising lawyer who passed his examination for the bar about « year ago, and is said to be as sharp as a stecl bear trap, has had posters put up about town in which he calls upon the electors of the Fourth Asseinbly District, Seventh Ward, to vote for him at the ensuing election as representative of ihe district in the State Legislature. Mr. McGuone has already joined the hosts of Tam- many, and displaygébe deep regard for all the virtues wiieh he bas imbibed from that pure source in his present address to the people. Among other things, he promises to urge with all his resplendent abilities, honesty and economy in public officials; to oppose the giving of State aid to monopolies; aud to encourage the foster- ing of the sciences and arts, He concludes with these words; ‘The present school system must be blotted out.
