Not. 5. 1866 . TAXING THE KEOEOES. The negroes of the South are the prop erty of the Radicals. Not by a bargain or snle have they passed into the hands of new masters, but by conquest. The men who once owned property in them, tire not allowed to govern the individual in whose person his dollars and cents have been extinguished. The moment the war ended, Congress took possession of the negroes of the South and locked them op in a bureau for safe keeping. When the financial interest of New England required the production of cot ton, thev were allowed to make contracts with the plantation .owners, subject, of course, to the approval of the Key the Bureau. Under the hnlief. founded BDon total ignorance of the neero character, that they freedom rush frantically into the fields and pro duce fabulous mountains ot cotton, ana thus at one stroke enrich themselves, a tax of three cents on the pound was re solved to be levied. It was not doubted that the freedmen would pay it without! murmur. Time passed the " man and brother" did notcome to time, and maDy of the grearplntations of the South grew . 3 .......... A. i... up in persimmon aim mimu Where the "man and brother" once turned up the furrow, and afterward gmhered cotton, he now bunts opossums aud slaughters rabbits. The three cents tax absorbs the profits of those wbe have labored, and, under the most favorable contracts, it is impossible for them to pocket profits at the end of the season. The supply of cotton will be limited, but that inexorable tax sticks to every pound of it The negroes being the real pro ducers, are, of course, the greatest suf ferers. The effect of the tax on the landed proprietor is a diE'crent question, and is not now discussed. The point we make has reference only to the "man and brother." He has great occasion, Burely, to be grateful to his white masters of the North. WHY THEY RESIST. The Radical meeting in Baltimore assigned the following reasons for resist ing: First We are a law-abiding people, and it is our purpose and desire to main tain the law, and not to resist Second. We propose to maintain and defend our rights ooder the law and in a lawful manner. Third. We hold that in casf of any doubts in the construction of law, those doubts are to be determined only by the constitutional interpreters of law, vii: The coarti " which are created for that purpose. Fourth. We demand, as a right that this question in controversy between the Governor of the State and the Police Commissioners, question in which, as ciuitns, we have dep interest, shall be submitted to the decision of the courts, and if it is submitted we believe there will be none. POHTOTOC, HISS. Gen. McMickh, the fuunder of the town of Pontotoc, in Mississippi, gives ' tbf following information about the first days of that place: "In one month after 1 laid off the town, I sold eighty thousand dollars' worth of lot. In two months I put up a hotel ; good log houses, with brick chimneys, to accommodate four L.i .1 1 . a r n witli Lorr1 anil 1. .fl if' II IT stublc- room and lots to accommodate four hundred horses.

OUB BIOHTS. If the South should ratify the consti tutional amendment under the pressure of radicalism, in less than ten years the circumstance would be referred to by the Jacobins as evidence of the cowardice ot the Southern people. They hate us now they would then have contempt for us. They will be satisfied with no concession, and it is best to make none. If we kneel now, we will be required to lie down hereafter. No more concessions to the Jacobins. Our rights are our own, not theirs; and, by the memory of the past, let us claim them. NATIONAL BANES.

The Folic Imbroglio Comments of the New Tork Preas. New York. November J. The Trib une ha the following comments on the Baltimore difficulty : . Governor Swana consluded the trial of the police commissioners Wednesday night and removed them Thursday morn inc. To-dav we print his decision in fuli with wonder that so elaborate and long a document could have been so speedily prepared. It looks very much as if the decision was made before the trial was ended. The Governor has made but a brief review of the evidence, and there is no connection between his argument and the act of removal. We hate carefully examined the evidence on the part ot the government with that of the defense and cannot see now any res pective lawyer could conscientiously say that the charges had been proved. From the first it is apparent that Gov ernor Swann had made up hi mind that the commissioners should be removed, and no evidence in their favor could have changed him. His own words have made it plain that the trial, over which he presided, was a farce and a mockery ; and that tbey were not summoned to Annapolis to be tried bet to be con demned. The Timet remarks : Throughout the preliminary state of the affair, and in themidbtof much excitement, the con duct of Gov. Swann was eminently proper. The threats of demagogues he met with a quiet declaration of his re solve to do bis duty. The denial of his authority elicited cothing but an affirma tion of his right and of his desire to know no partisanship in the conduct of the inquiry. Some of the remarks with which be opened the trial sound some what at variance with his profession of strict impartiality. An announcement of a purpose to act without reference to Wal technicalities sounds unpleasant in connection with a case which should be governed by the form as well as the spirit of law. His avowed intention to limit the proceedings to a day's inspection of requirements tbat inigbt be developed during the trial certainly looked one sided. While the assurance that he should act promptly in accordance with his decision tended to excite an appre hension that he had already in some de gree made up his mind without waiting for formal evidence. ' The Sun says the order of the Gover nor will be carried out and a new police department will be organised. The Governor's decision in the case is au thoritative and caa be legally set aside only by the Judiciary. It matters not whether there was sufficient evidence or not to warrant his action. He has acted in accordance with his lawful authority and the police commissioners have no riicht to defy his decision. The only course which they can properly pursue. is to peacably give p the police depart ment and then seek redress for their al leged wrongs in the courts. Tbey have no justification whatever for defying the order of the Governor, and the attitude which tbey have assumed will gain them but little sympathy. The Pott says as follows : To pnah mat ters to extremes, to make a dead lock, to appeal to arm and threaten with vio lence, force and bloodshed, when an af fair can be conducted peaceably, when the Courts are opea and their decision will afford all necessary remedies, all this is to inflict a serious injury on the Stale and society, and to help make free government difficult, and, ia the end, impossible. Governor Swana has not done wisely to run to Washington with his complaints, a though the Federal Government were a king or a dry nnrse to the State of Maryland, and the Gover nor was only an agent oi uio a It is not the part of a Governor of a free State to begin a trial with a threat of bayonets, and enforce his own construc tion of a disputed point at law with Urn ted States regular. . We take it for granted that if the police commissioner refuse to give up their office, Governor 8wann will instruct those he ha ap- j ... i.k. tlia tn a DroDer poinieu i - , , .

The new commissioners of police ap- .j w i Va Dnvnrnnr of Maryland ave established their office, amidst the general acquiescence and Bpplanse of a community relieved from the terror of impending anarcny ana restorea io iu rule of reason and order. If now the mad dened partisans who, in other States, did their atrocious worst to fan this incipient mischief at Baltimore into a lurid and fatal blaze of civil strife shall persevere in their madness; if, in the reckless pur suit of partisan victory, they shall con tinue to fan the flame, the passions which, but for the courage of the consti tuted authorities, had even now once more cut off Washington from the na tion, and this time by a Radical rebellion. FROil MEXICO. Matamoros, Oct 2C It is not thought here that Mejia will attempt to occupy the border, as it ceuld only be done at a large expense of blood and treasure, and with no corresponding advantage. Ca nales i still in possession of the town. Tapia ia about three leagues out with 1800 men. Negotiation for the surren der of the city have been in progress the past few days, and they closed yesterday without any practical result Col. Findija, of Ortega's staff, arrived in Brownsville yesterday. He ha been closeted with prominent Mexicans who are friends of Canale and supporter of Ortega. Canales this morning expressed hi determination to hold the city at all hazards against Tapia and Cortina. This is probably the result of the arrival of Col Findija, and it is generally believed here that he will shortly pronounce in favor of Ortega. The forces of Tapia and Cortina will be combined for an attack, which will be detained some days on account of the bad condition of the roads. Advice from Monterey state the fact that Gen. Trevino wa atElcedral, in the State of San Luis Potosi, on the 11th nit, and on that day issued a proclamation to the people of that Slate. It is thought he will be able to oppose any force which Mejia can bring against him. Geo. Tapia has issued a proclamation to the people of Tamanlipas, ia which he announced himself as the representative of the supreme government, and inti mates bis intention of attacking Mata moros at an early day. From a private letter dated October 10th, I learn that Donay is in Mathulea ith 1.100 men. He has offered for sale his carriage and horses, and is packing np for a jonrney to the City of Mexico.

An intercepted dispatch from San Lni Potosi to Mathnlea, showed that Jeanin grot wrote on the 15th of September t hat he was marching on Queretaro, leaving Donay at San Luis, and that later Donay started to join him. THE ARREST OF C0X0TER. New York. November I It will be recollected that some time since the re port was circulated that Advocate Gen eral Holt had, by unworthy means, urged the preferring of the charge against Mr. Davis, published a phamplet ia which he detailed at length the circumstances un der which the charges were made, r torn this account it appeard tbat S. Conover, alias C. A. Dunham, volunteered to find a man who had stated that he knew sufficient aboul the case to warrant such a charge being made; whereupon Mr.1 Campbell, alia J. A. Hoare, was named a the person alluded to. Tbat in order to obtain the attendance of the (aid Hoare. sums of money were advanced at various times to the aforesaid Conover, and that Hoare did appear before the Judiciary Committee of the House of , . r j: l Kepreseniauves ana lenujr sccuruiuKi;. Hoare subsequently admitted tbat bis statement of the whole affair wa false and without any fonndation in truth. It appearing that the whole story had been served up by Conover, the committee recommended that he be arrested. Ac cordingly Judge Advocate Turner, of Washington, ordered the arrest to be made, and, spoo Conover making bis appearance in the city, he wa arrested by United States Marshal Murray and sent on to Washington yesterday.
