Secretary t.'haui.lcr'.i evidence In-fore the
Real Eslatc Pool Conniiittee puts in a new
light the story of Mrs. Iiof_rjr*, who received
$100 a month for her intltience in keepiiiK
Major Clemens in office. The President, in the
correspondence furnished, appears to have tlis
couiiteiuiii.cd tho arrangement as soon as he
heard of it ; but this fact can only be ile
termined by a careful comparison of the dates
furnished by Secretary Chandler and Mrs.
Boggs.
The decision of th?? United States Supreme
Court in the nimois Railroad Taxation ctsi-s
covers points of importaiice. The Court de?
clare? that the tax ought to bave b-een paid
fint i afterward a suit for rocovorj might have
been in order. But so long a? a tax is con?
stitutional, if levied by a State, it cannot Im?
met beforehand by an injunction, no matter
whetbcc tlicre is irregularity in tlie proceed?
ings, ?rror in the valuation of pr?>pcrty, hard?
ship in the law, or any otlier grievance that a
lawsuit can remedy. The Court also und.?
that tin- Illinois State tax is constitutional, its
application to railroad capital ami franchi?.?'
is legal, and the mode of assessing is equitable.
i?cneral amnesty is becoming more popular
in France. At the great meeting held yester
ility in Lyons it was warmly advocat? -1. In
l'a; is, Louis Wane and \ 'ictor Hit!.'?? were tap.
ttirously applauded wht-n they favored th??
policy of forgiveness. " America," snid the
latter, " imitated us by abolishing datan :
" we shall imitate her by smiting amnesty."
The movenieiit is beget with danger to the
Republicans. If they make amnesty a party
iti'-astire, they will be very generally hit ntili ?!
witli the miadeedi of the Commune ; if they
?lo no!, they will lose tl.e Ma?lieiil support. It
may not lx> too late for the Government to
act more generously, and thus break the for?-??
?if the popular demand?

Though not without good features, the bill
Axing n?'w ratea of postage evidently contain?
many andities, and it needs to l?<? thoughtfully
revised ?before it is adopted. This bill is, bow

instance, providing that letters not fuliv pre?
paid sin,11 be M'nt t?> the Dead Letter Office.

Cen. Belkuap**! impeachment becomes mer.,
ami ni???' a matter ???' doubt, deapite the elab?
orate ceremonies <>l the trial? Senators are
beginning i?> perceive tliat if thej have the
liuhi to try private citizens who aie i,?> longer
in office, there is no end to Hi?- ghosts which a
Democratic House may call up (rom the buried
pea! lor fresh investi.'.iti..n. If Gen. Belkuap
??an he impeached, why cannot, i.u instance,
cx-Sei-ret.iry Delano 1 Hut if the faillit?? l?,
impeach is oonsequehi upon Gen. Belknsp'i
prompt resignation? the people who helped him
in resign must accept t!i?' responsibility for the
failure. Mr. Clymer*! advice to Gen. Belkuap
was certainly very significant, and probably
hastened his application to the President? The
position which Mr. Clymer occnpiei in ?imped
to this advice is precisely the same ?is in re?
gard t.? permitting the flight of the Marshes
to Canalla. ll?> either meant to help (?in.

PARTISAN PRACTICES.
The systematic abuse of powet. both in innk
ing laws and l-i enforcing Hum, hi?, for years
been the gravest fault of that Republican f.i?
tion which the Administration represents, li
teemed to the majority ??) tin- people time to
?top this Use of th?' powers of < iov.i inn. til, in
order t?i keep a party in power, and therefore
the elections of 187. resulted in ;? Democratic
ii?> - Ii iras a grave and terrible thine that
the power of the Governmrat was so used fot
partiaaa ends; how grave and terrible we shall
not tally appreciate until we lool back at re?
cent events from ?i distance. This ?'lime, fot
yean condemned by tta, we an- by no mean*,
disposed t<> treat lightly, for it i-? immeasurably
mon- dangerous to the country than the per?
sonal corruption of a Cabinet Minister, or the
petty thefts by subordinate ?>iii. ia!>.
The new charge against President (?rant i?
that in a ringle JnstaiHtfi he ha?, ?l.?n.? exactly
what his faction has been doing tor years, and
what h?? was empowered t<> <b> by law? framed
in the interest of that faction. II" need public
money to wenn the inf?ttcai of hi? party, it ii
alleged. That is exactly what hundreds ?>f
appropriation! have been made for, year after
year; exactly what, thousands of ollieials have
been ?selected for; exactly what enforcement
ails and force bills meant. Disregard of pub?
lic Interests lias been OOtOHMMI. What does it
matter whether tin- money was paid to Jobbers,
in consideration ?if large ?subscripttons to party
fund.-?, or to Scent or other agents at the
South or in New-York, or as regular salary to
unnecessary officials, employed only i>? cause
they wen useful to party '/ Morally, there is
no difference. Publie money is taken, in either
ease, lor ases not publie hut partisan? The act
is not the less wrongful when it. i-? done by law,
or under color of law. The member of I'on
gr?'?.s who votes for an appropriation ?Inch he
knows th?- public go?>d does not re.piir?', ?be
cause he hopes that it will ma'<o votes for his
parly, has been guilty of the very same ?rime,
?n a moral wnse, witli which tin? President is
charged. If all that can by any possibility be
alleged Hgrriwi him, in connection with the
Davenport matter, be fully admitted, it
amounts to this: that he has ?lone, in one
other instan.'.-, what his faction has ?lone for
years?he has us??! power for partisan ends.
This is not by any ni?-ans the gravest ?nstame.
Pansido the history of an ?lection at the
South! i'onsid.-r the dispci?,ioii of a legisla?
ture by armed nun! After all tins?* things
aftCC enforcement acts ami lone bills, are we
to go int.) hysterics beoauM the President
csnstd money to '>?? pai?l to Davenpest lor the
prevention of fraud in that locality when
Demoentk election frauds hiive been gnatosl
ami most numerous!
The Denweratk parly is in danger of be*
littling all that it may justly say against the
policy of th?' Republican party by affecting so
much horror over particular and comparatively
Unimportant incidents. When ?I arraigneil the
general policy of the dominant, party toward
the South as ?1?-moralizing, ?langeious, and
subversive <>f bee institutions, the people lis?
tened. Thousands of Republicans refaced to
vote; thousands mon- voled for a change.
Men began to realize that In-edom is a mere
farce ii all the power of the people, once In
trusted !<> a set ?>f mrantaj is used unscrupu?
lously to defeal any ?hange of power. Hut
when tlie Democrats tell us, wilh many a
shiink and a shudd. r, that Mr. Davenport
?pent twenty thou-viml ?lollars in a year, pro?
fessedly in preventing and punishing election
frauds, and really in breaking uj? the
machinery by which Democratic majori?
ties have been manufactured to order
in this city, we fear Unit many sober people
will laugh. Kveryliody knows that HMM and
other infinitely more blameworthy things have
been done, soim-times by legislation, some?
times by forced construction of law, some?
times in gross disreganl of law, to keep the
party in power. If the President really be?
lieved that Davenport's operations wore within
the meaning of tho statute providing means
for the prevention of crimes against the
?United States, he can be blamed, only as his
faction ?-an be justly blamed, for long-co:i
tiniK'd MS of public, power and public money
for partisan ends.
STEALING AS A II10H CRIME AND MIB
DEMBANOB.
Mr. Boittwoll, as one of the assessors in judg?
ment in the <;asc of W. W. 15? Ikn.ip, privat?!
? ltizen of Iowa, will probably have MUM vivid
nmcmbrancei of another Impeachment, in
which, as one of tlie ???*/***>?, In- displayed
so much tile ami force that he was gratefully
styled "A steady wind blowing aft,"' "A cold
"ami classic Demosthenes." " Th?- black -haired
"Energy of t'a' Proseeutton.*1 ami other nasses
full of metaphor and endearment It is not
probable that. Mr. BoutweU achieved this
oriental luxuriance of till.-by his mathematical
discovery that, the guilt of Andrew .Johnson
was the sun?' multiple ?if the guilt of Caiui
Verres, as the superficial content of the United
States was of the superficial content of the
Island of Sicily ; but, lather on account of the
startling ami perhaps unconstitutional method
of punishment which he ?levis.il as a fit r??tn
bulion for the high crimes and misdemeanors of
the gnat criminal. It. sppean that somewhere
in the Interstellar spaces there is a lonesome
region of which Mr. Houtwell had knowledge,
but whose right SSCCniicn and ?le?'linatioii he
?onc?ale?!, called the "Mole in the Sky,'' and
Into tills. Celestial DryTortUgSS he proposed to
ejaculate Mr. Johnson bodily, and to lean
him then to be preyed upon by ramons for
an Indefinite period.
Now, then is no moral Rule <>f Time by
which we can ??militate tin enormity of Bel*
knap's transgression as compared with Mr.
Johnson's? Neither Cains Vems nor ?my other
man can be utii/.e?! as a common measure in the
?solution of this problem. Andrew Johnson
was without doubt a pi?lihllt person. Ile
Confessed that he had a policy, lb' not only
spoke with disres).t. concerning the Congresi
of the rutted St.t.es, bul it ?vas proved that
he ?lid this in a " loud tone of voice." Ile re
moved a Secretory ??ml appointed another?
II.- even declared that a eertein enactment of
?Congrats was unconstitutional. I'?ut he did not
steal, nor peddle mtlerships, Uflf did his wife
or his brother O-rvfl. The itatesmaa of tin?
pre?! ut day, on the coutraty, bloMOBM out
very naturally im?? lareeny, and a great many
reputable people have come to consider infrac?
tions of th?- eighth commandment improper
an?! demoralising, If a lafe-burglar or laeah?
thi.f, or ?m ?utist win? ha. appropriated th?*
blanket of an Indian not taxed, or who has
absorbed the pay <>t a ?ol.li.-r .?n a frontier
post, or who has mide ils?- of the Se?ret

It is of some interest t<? th?> people of the
United stat, s t?? know ?vh:u riews sre enter?
tained by the Senate in regard to the morali?
ties involved in the pending impeachment.
This interest is intensified by th.- apprehension
that Mr. Belkuap may have company] for as
all roadi lend t<? Rome, so every trail of official
putridity p'linis t<? the heart <?i thaw concen?
tric j-?!i_r?* which are known as " Ailmitii-tia
?'tion circles.'1 It ??ill be remembered how
the English language ??a? made buakfupt in
describing Mr. Johnson's crimes, ami how
ciiti-tiau people won edjnred not only to
" burden the mails" with ippcall to the
Senatorial ?out. hut also " to offer Up
"unceasing prayer t.. Almighty ?God*1 that
th.- vengeance <>f an aroused nation

Then? an? some excellent things in the
Woo.lin bill relating t?> the City Government
of New-York, as amended in the Home. It
would bo a pit] i<? lose them, ?and yet it would
be belle] to have tin- hill defeated than to let
it become a law without the remove] <>f two
or tnree objectionable provisions which ha'.?: in
some way or another bi en still ahle to hold their
places in it. There is yd linn- t?, take tbeae

saki; ?if the good that is left in it, nml not for
the sake of the jobs which have been mostly
removed, there should be no difficulty in re

Perhaps the most objectionable feature is to
be found in the 19th section. The apparent,
object of this section is excellent, hut th?'
fust Sentones in it may In? construeil
to legalizo old contracts for city improve?
ments, and t.? compel assessments fot the
wotk ?lot!?' und.-r them. Now tin? ?ity
is engaged in lighting many of these
contracts?] they have been vitiah.l
by fraud, and the levying of assessments to
pay for the wotk done under them would re?
sult in gross injustice to the ?ity. To require
such assessment is to enforce robbery.
The last sentence of the 30th section con?
tains an equally ohjieltousMa ?lause, it re?
quires that the whole cost of work for
which assessments ate authorized shall
bemalter be assessed upon the property
benefited by tht? improvement, l.ut pro?
vides that no assessment shall ?x
eeed one-half of the last assessed valuation
of the property. Now it happens thai then
are many millions of properly belonging
to religious charitable and olher institu?
tions, which have M assessed valuation.
They ar?' exempt from taxation, but
ban ne*m been exempt from assess?
ments lor Improvements which benefited
t liiiii. The ?li? ? t of this clause would be
t<? exempt them. The people <>f New-York
have in? such purpose, and they will look with
suspicion upon the skill which iiisinuaU's so
dangerous a privilege in so Innocent a guise.
The ?97th section attempt! the excellent
work of atopping all claims against tlie city
for ?nilcbt?'?lni'ss incurred when then was no
appiopi'iatinn to meet it. It contents
Itaelf, howtver, with simply asking af
lirmative proof that at the time
the Indebtedness was incurred th?-re was an
amount of such appropriation remaining
unexpended sufficient to pay t!ie same.
Hut ut that tinm then may often have
been that amount unexpended, although
obligations for live times the Mtm wire al?
ready Inouned and accruing UKiiinst it. Mani?
festly a coach ami si? ?-mild Ik? driven
through any such clause as that, und legis?
lators ?earneiitJy striving to give the city somo
legal protection which will really protect, can
reilainly improve it. It would be a
pity to loss some things in this bill,
bat bolter lo loso it nil either in the
LegkUiUIS or at the hand;, of the Covemor,
than permit covered way? like these to bfl
burrowed under its san.lion into tho City

THE LAST ATTACK.
Senator Morton is n politician whom wo
thoroughly distrust. His methods and bin
policy an? alike bad. We can lianlb' think of I
prominent man now in puM'- life so objectiona?
ble that we should BO. feel bound to siip-wirt
Inni for tin* President'), as against .Mr. Morton.
And yet US cannot, help se.-ing that the
present Democratic attack upon the Indiana
Senator is ingeniously calculated to beget for
him the sympathy and good will of the coun?
try. It proceeds upon the charge that, at the
beginning of the war, when icliel sympa?
thizers controlleil the I.c<_islatiiic of Indiana,
he obtained, as Covcinor of that Stab', a largS
stun of money from the United BtOlSS for ex?
penditure in paying, ctpiippiii':, and arming
troops t.? aid in the suppression of the rebel?
lion. If it can be shown that any pail of thi*
money was taken by Mr. Morton for p?r?
rate use, ?my decent cili/.en would at
least prefer to have the proof before mak
ting the story public. Nobody asserts
such B thin.-*;. The char-re is that the
payment to (!ov. Morton was not strictly v.ar
r,,nl.(l by law because his Stale was not in
rebellion. In short, the Democrats propose to
punish Mr. Morion for taking oU'ective BUSOS
lires against rebellion in Indiana. That is all
then is in the business thus far.
If later evidence warrant.* any question as
to lbs faithful disposition of the money thus
received, it will Ihen be time to consider it.
As (lie case st/nds new, it appears to be
merely another attempt to besmirch S I'rcsi
doiitiiil candidate. The I?ei?ociats will gain
no advaiitaire Iron? the fact that MMDS
of their spokesmen seem lo hail this
atlempt with the more jov, for the reason
that Mr. Morton was ueeedingly tioiihlc-oine
to their party fan 1861. It is not by the
revival of such memories that, the I ?eiiio.iacv
is to win a victory?if it win it at all?in 1876.
