Ever since elec? tion activo Ropublicans, who have only the good ol tho p.u'ty at hoart, havo been engaged in this landable exerdee, as our columns attwt, lu a lottor from Albany. whieh is printed on an? other page, throo sagacious and experienccd mem Ikm-s of tho oruanization submit suggestiona whieh have only to be acted upon, thoy think, greatly to increase tho party's tighting capacity in tho campaigns of the future. Theso suggestions aro ontitlod to the rermectful oonsideration alike of leaders and of rank and file, and are well cal culated to provoke a discussion whioh cannot fail to bo attended by good results. EMaTVBLICAXS AXD THEELECTIOXFRAUDS Tho doteiniination of Republican leadere to prevent tho theft of Senate seats meeta with tho hoarty approval of the reputable mon of both paities. Kvory good eitizen, bo ho Republican or he hc Domoeiaf, must be filled with indigna ti.m at the conduct of tho eightoen Demoeratic Suporvisors of Dutchess County, who, in flagrant doiiaiu. of law aml of thoir oflicial oaths, man ufaeturod a majority for Mr. Osborno. A more atroeioits pioee of eounting-in was never per petrated in this State; no, not even when Tam? many, by tho aid of ite repeaters, ballot-box Btoffera aml jascally inspectors, swindled John A. Giiswold out of the Governorship to whieh the peoplo had callcd him. ln resolving to light this fraud upon tho votois of the XVth District and eimilar fraud_ whieh have been poipetrated in other districts, tho ic].ii -cntative mon of tho party will merely bo doing thoir duty. llaving helped to make tho Senato Ropubliean by their energetic effoits during the campalga, thoy do not purpose to pllow Demoeratic thievos?no matter how bigb the official place of any of them may be?to rob our party of tho fruits of victoiy. Tho wiii of the people as un mistakably dodarod at tho ballot-box on i'ie 8d .f Novomber gav4' tho. control of the Senate of ls!l_-'i?;{ to the RopublicJiis. So tho inspectors of .lcctioas found and atuiouneed on election nighi. ls a gaag of desjierate Demoeratic poli tieiat I standing for all that in most dishonost and degraded in poiitics to be allowed to revorso this r. sclt. Ropublicans everywhero say Xo, and s,a B8J fair-iiiiiuiod Doinoerats. The Republitan party during all its patriotio and most fiiiitful career has labored steadily to . ttvngthen our system of goveinment?g.vern menl of the people by tlie people. And for DOthing has ii f.ught harder in pursuance of iis lojal aim than for a puio ballot-box, for an honest count of honest votes. Ono of tho most notablo of its recent aehievements in this Stat. was tho passage of tho Ba'ilot-Rcfoiiu Act. Oov? ernor Hill, wiu. i.s now boastag tho infamous ring whieh is bent upou stealing tho Senate, vototd throe of their bill_, but, they compelled him to sign the fourth.

That. tlieii- Bfforta will be seoonded by tho bost, the most iiiteiligent elonient in tho Demoeratie imitv we should bo loath t<? d.uibt. There ought t-a be no potltici in a iijjht against tho eiieini s el an honost ballot. For, if tho will of the people. tho dof-rinination t.f the majority, is not to Iki allowed to pu-vail, thon p-.apular govornmont bo eonu'.s a f.wco. -lie outrago whieh the Deino c,;it:<- Soperviaors of Dutcheaa County committed primaiily affeotl tho voters of tho X\'tli Dis trict.

The report of tho Af-sociated Prcss iegaiding th" effectl of tho McKiakgr tariff in Fianec, whieh was printed in yostoiday's Tribuno, is ox eoedingly inteiosting to Americans. Xot tho least cmiooa foatuit; ..f it is embodied in the Btal i-nent by .Minister Roid, who shows that tho chaagea coatmoalj attributod to r!io new tariff, about whieh thero i.s most genoiul oomplaint, aie aetunlly due to the Administiativo bill ; that tho Fi-eneh aro really n.mplaining koader, B-thongh in fact less injured by Amoti i-iiii ehangos of duty, tlian any other ISofOpCU nation, and that tho MeKinloy tariff contains no sueli axtraocdlaarj advance* of duty, from loo to 8*0 per eent, 88 ajiiK-ar in the measure whi4-h is BOW p_s-ii:;: !h.".tigh tho Fronch Jaw-making I. , ii( -.

This latu-r moi-suio, it BhoU-d bo rctiHiiibered, ias in its o-ssential pro \ JMiiUis ono whieh has been ftrongly urged b\ the most compotont loadei* of both jiaitios. B80 leMry Manning devoted a large part of hLs ic potts to the advoeacf of this rofoim, and the most inlluontial Deinoi rai_, as well as the load ing Republicans, have long agrood about the ne (?(s>.>ity of rendering tho administration of the eus tOBBB laws BMBM ciTective. Nor can thoro bo a jt-'t objootion to these |io visions on the part of French inerchants and iiitiiulaetiireis. Thoy have no right to evade oi defeat tho laws of this eountiy, and it would be discotirtcous to them to suppiso that they ha\o any mii'Ii mbtPO. 1' is a lact that iiiidoi-valiiiiti,ni? ai. i 08-81 banda upon tJio levonue did foinnirij oec-ur as fro(|iniit!y in iuiportationa of goods from l-'miieo as iu imjioitations fiom any other eoun tiv, s.a that :tii.v me.i-iiio ealculated to suppross Of ffStrid -_-88 8b0888 must iio4-4.*s_iily be felt !,v lOan iK.dy in France, if not by tho moio re sp.)!i.-ilile and repotabk |KOdae8n nnd tradeis. llnt S.IUH! of both i-lasses honorably uphold the .tnicrieau law in their published sfcatcnients. Bad even rojoiee in it becauae it londa to prevent iiniair lompcliti. n among Fioik h dcilera, or l>::i( ii.es to whieh they wore not willing to stooji in 4>rdcr to roluin their buainess. Tho testimony as to tho effott of the tariff upon French indnstrios ls excoodingly contra dJctory, Itl part .IBBUBB, as Mr. Keid points our, most of them aro not realiy _t?tod at all. no chat'ges of dnties on their pr-diK t -, having bBBB made. Hut oBbfltB HN at prf sent 80 pT-tlraBBd hy th<> _Bp__B___ of indnstiies, whieh prevails gen orally throughoiit Kurope, that the employes have been oblifB 1 to work for tho lowest ixjssi ble wages, and the prodnceis and dealers are fcroad to soll at the nairowest pOfltalblB margitis of profit, so that the goods aie actually placed in this country as cheaply as they were before tho dnties wero advanced. This is testimoity from foreign B0-TB8B to tho faet whieh Fre. Traders so often deny, that the foreignor is fn qucntly oonipclled to pay tho wholo duty or the additiona! duty levied in this country in order to retain hiB maiket. In other oascs, not perhap". numerou.-, but somowhat im|K)rtant, a scrioius loss of trade to French industry bas rcsultcd. The -JBBtidBB is jitstilicd in remombcring thai tho peoplo of thta country do not consiimo less than hefore of tho prodtic'tv. of such industries, but sitnply get their supplies from homo instead of foreign rouroes. They are, in faet, r.aying talfe. to Ameriean labor and Ameriean manufactureis flttd nierchants, instead of paying to French working men, manufactiirers and traders. This is simply a transfer of custom from ostablishments abroad to astabltahmcnts at home, and the mcasuic of de pression whieh is felt in some of these industries in Fiance may hcip to enlighten Americans in re gard to the additioiial stiir.ulus whieh has heen givon to Ameriean industry in similar branches. lt was tho precisc object of tho now tariff to strengthen and encoutago -MBB homo industries, and tho testimony from foreign soiirc.- tbat it, is doing tho work intended is thorefore not un weloorae. _^^ RESULTS OF THE SHIPriXG ACT. Tho accoptanco of bids for ocean maii service under the Ameriean llag onables us to take an account of stock of tho practical benelits of re cent flbtpplag legislation. The chief gain is tho estahlishmcnt of a lino of Ameriean stoam ers with tho Fhto countries. The only other now enterpriso b the (Jalveston service with Vone-iiolan and Colombian ports. These two lincs tvill involve tho construction of six new ri-pa, threo of tlie seoond and throo of the fourth class. Tho l.ids for the existing service blBWBBU New-York and Cubtt, Mexico and Venezuela will mako two more ships nocessary. The I'acilic Maii bids whieh have been acceptcd will r_qu_ in tho coui-se of a few years the building of six or eight new vessels. In tho ag^rogato about sixteen stcamers, three of th-m of 5,000 tons and 16 knots speod, will prubably be added to tho fommercial niarine in con. equence of tho reccnt legislation. The Plate service will be tho most substantial gain. We shall not attempt to conceal the fa<t that theso results are not as large _s the friends ot the Ameriean ciiiumercial marinc havo beea look ing for. While tho act has not pioved a Jailu.e, it has impartcd less of an impul.se t_ the canying trade than wo hoped it would do. The re.ul' indicates that tho scaling down of the HttBB of (dinpensatioii bv ;i third seriously impaircd the efticiency of the act as a stiiiuilativc and creative ?llttlfllllli H tho bill had been enacted in tta original form. as itpas.x>d_he Senate. the l-sttlts would havo been very different. The faet that tttpital has not been attracted for new enter priaea ia i -gnal prool that the pre___n_ vrere not large enoogb. The baatk effotta ol Demo ciatic BbWabQ-B in the last HoflBB to cripple the meastire when they could not succood in de feating it outright were successfiil. T]io C-OBBB Maii Service Act was not, as oxpeiience has now shown. an adequato measure of rriief for i-hip ping interests. The. reduction of ptxmitiins by a third was a ___88 unfortunatc comprymi sc. It must also bo added that the proposals of the l\>.sima.stcr-(.oneral for ocean maii service involved Bf-Ktat rigid application of the act in tta weakened form. Fivo bldfl have heen lejected outright on acconnt Of B0B-C0B_pli-B-. with the tornw of the adv'.itiscnieiitjs. Tluir lvjcctioit was parbapB necessary, but if thero had heen ?ON elasticity in canying Ottt tbe laa enacted l.v COBg-BBB, and if fewcr OOOdi-O-fl and less exao-ag reqdraBBBBta had been UnpoBed, aot ,ai!v tbeaa offen, but many more, (t.uld have been act-opted. If the policy of redprocity is to bocomo perflBV neutly itscftil and siiccessful, it niiLst involve a large i-oreaae of -r__-po_tB-loa facilitics.

Fvery man who knows Hill i.s awaro that he is not given to efforts in behalf of tho Demoeiaey whieh do not promise to bring a gono.ous fOf_B tity of grist to his own personal mill. Some iiu'inbcrs of tho maiino, the iiltia-niarino, i-nrps mav bt laboiing under tho inipressii.n that Hill is iiot for Hill hnst, last and all tho time, but lovol-hoaded mon make no such miatake. What, tlien, is tho true inwardnoss of tho Oovernor's pii'smit disRrncefuI porformanco ? Tho question is ea'sily arusweicd. Ho yoains to be HOBllaBtod for tho I'residency, but cannot fail to bo awaro that tho Demoeratic Xational Con vention would be radically opposed to with.lraw ing him from tho I'nited States Senate ttnloss ho was to bo succeeded by a Deinoorat. His prc tensiona in any event most likoly would bo studi 4iusly ignorod by the conventioii. Hut even if a majority of tho delegatea should be favoiable to him on general grounds, tho faet that his rosignatioii from the Senato would bo followcd by tho election of a Republican would bo fatal t4> his canvass. Tho Frosidontial bird of '9-' is in the bush, and tho Republicans aro going to bag it. Is it fairly stipposablo that tho eool baadad Deinoiratic leaders will i-isk a nnmina t;..ii whieh will cost them not only tho bird in the bush but tho Sonatorial bird in hand? Hut how is ilill to be succeeded in tho Senate by a Domocrat if tho Republieans control the Xew York Lr-gislature? These ooi-ddeiations consti tuto a jwifoctly roasonable cxplanation of tho Oovorniu's anxioty for a Demoeratic majority in tho Senate. His affoction for his Fresidonti..! boom constrains him. Racking liogus eleetion 1,-iinis ostensibly with tho hopo (if securinjj Demoeratie supremacy in tho Logislaturo for tho good of tho party, in reality ho is sehoming to scrvc his own voracity as an oflieosoeker.
