Mr.' Shorman on Finance.
From the Tribune.
ThereTODueof our Federal Government
for
the last quarter of 18(15 wm as folio wv
Intornal Taxes.. SS2,C97.15 Cu-tora $00,210,853
loial 141(818,4i4.
There aro el her items lands, diract tax, and
miscellaneous; bat the two former are trifling,
while the miscellaneous consists, e Judge,
mainly of receipt tor Teasels and supplies
bought fcr war purpose, and now sold became
bo longer needed. We Judiro the real income of
the Governtnont a little over one hundred and
forty millions, or at tho rate of live hundrad and
sixty millions par annnm.
The recelpis from customs are excessive. We
Imported far too many goods during tho quar
ter twice too many. If we ooint thtrty mil
lions per quarter as tho proper sun to be raised
by a wisely discriminating tiriiT, It is quite
enough.
If laere had been no cheating tho revenne
cur internal taxs would have yielded at least
one hundred millions, or at tho rate of foar
hundred millions per annam. Let us pupposo
that Consrrcss will mow reduce the rates by one
third, while more efficient legislation and efl'ort
shall reduce tho aggregate of fraads on this
branch of tho revenue by one half, our incomo
from internal taxes cannot well fall bslow Blsty
millions per qaarter, or two hundred and forty
millions per annum. This will give us a total
income from customs and internal taxes of
three hundred and sixty millions per annam.
Now, the interest on oar debt, when it shall all
be funded, cannot exoued one hundrod and
eighty millions, while the annual expuaao of
maintaining our Government in time ot peace
must isll below one hnndrad and twenty mil
lions; so that, on this basis, we shall be able to
devote at least sixty aiillions per annum to the
diminution of the principal oi oar debt. And
this, it we allow the taxes to remain as they ure,
and keep out of foreign wars, would pay oil our
antire debt within thirty years, or bei'oro the
elose of the present century.
Such are tho auspices under which Mr. Sher
man of Ohio suumit. to tlio Seuato and the
country a proposition that our greenbacks shall
not be redeemed and caacelledt0 9uch an extent
as to reduce tho amount outstanding below lour
hundred and twenty millioas. lu otunr words,
"the United Mates promise to pay" $t, $3, $5,
$10, $20, $.")0, $100, $1UOO, or whatover may bo
the iiDiouut bpecltied ou the tace of any green
back, is to be made a lie by statute the United
States are not merely to postpone payment of
these their voluntary promises lor value
received; they are to declare nnd enact that
they will notpaytreml What is tins Dunne
most llacTAut repudiation? liy what code of
morals can it be luMirled ?
Most certainly, the idea of porsiitent, chronic
irredeemability was not involved in their tncop
tion and itsue. Mr. Bpauldiiig, of Buffalo, who
was on the Committee of Ways and Means who
first authorized them, states that it was the un
derstanding that they were to be at all timoscon
Tertible into a twenty-years' six per cent.,
whereof the interest should bo paid in specie.
Thus the United Slates were to say to their
creditors, "Wo have not money on nund; but
here is a mortgage on the whole country, paya
ble principal and interest in specie; take this,
and wait till we can do better by you."
"The main impulse of Mr. Sherman's measure
is, of course, a desira to retain the greenbacks in
circulation, and thus keep tho currency abun
dant, while saving tiio interest on four hundrel
millions of public debt. Very well, Mr. Saer
inan, we will meet you and your school half
way. We will accept your proposition, with this
amendment:
"Prtvikd,Aa.t tlie United States notes aforosaid
shall he olwavs redeemed in coin on preaeutnieut at
tho sab-Treasury in Now York."
"Oh 1 that will arevent the reteatbD of
$420,000,000 in circulation."
. .No, it will not. Tho Government oan pay out
greenbacks bo l'apt, at least, aH it will bo
require to redeem them, protidod it keeps
them at par. California, Nevada, Idaho, Utah,
etc., will absorb reams of thorn, and hold most
of thtm, so long as they aro at par with specio
in this city. TTe handle about $1,000 000 per
annum in our business, and we should never
think ot sending; iu a dollar for redemption so
long aB it wus kept at par. And what is true of
our business is true of almost every one's.
Here, then, is a fair ground wneroon the de
votees of greenbacks may meet us if they will.
We want no better currency than greenbacks,
provided they are kept of equal value with coin.
With lour hundred millions of greenbacks, three
hundred millions in notes of our National Banks,
and at least two hundred millions of coin, we
shall have u very abundant circulating medium;
but we are reconci'.ed to that. What wo are not
reconciled to, and do not Intend to be, is a da
baned currency a curreney of fog a "now you
iee it, and now joa don't" currency a onrreucy
of wiltully broken promise and stereotyped
lie. If Mr. Sherman desires such a currency,
he is not bo sntind a thinker and legislator as we
had suppoaed him. Such a currency will Involve
ns in imminent penis and invoke iave disas
ters. It will stimulate excessive importations,
no matter how hih the tariff. It will incite in
ordinate Fpeculation and financial gambling of
all kind. It will leal this country by flowery
paths to a precipice whence we shall fall r.t
length mto gcueml bankruptcy and stagnation.
The track is a beaten one those who follow it
have to risht o plead Ignorance of its goal.
Either they know whither they are leading us or
they are out ot their depth altogether.
We move tiie prevloBs qnestion that concern
ing the rinld of our Government to lie when
there is no need of it. In time of war, and of
enormous financial requirement, when nobody
wanted to lend it money, tha Government issued
its own notes and made them a legal tender.
We hold it was perlectly right In so doing. Bat
ycu must not (say Burkt) make the extreme
medicine of tie Constitution its daily bread.
You cannot persist after pe ace -in a suspension
ot the habehs corpus, nor in many other prac
tices perfectly justifiable amid the exigencies
of n terrible war. If the Government shall on
dertuko to maintain currency inflation after
pence shall have been fully restored, it will
tail, because it (should, and because all exouso
for such debasement will have utterly parsed
away.
The New Hampshire Election.
Trout the Uei uld.
Tho results of the Kew Ilampshlro eleetlon
show that party lines ia that State have not
been materially disturbed by the recent events
at Washington. The total vote east will pro
bably exceed sixty-eight thousand, which is
erv close upon the fall Presidential Tote of
18C1, soldiers and all sixty-nine thousand two
hundred and seventy-one. This vote was thus
dividod:
For Llnooln 31,410
for McUlelluu 3l,b71
Lincoln's mjoritr 3,621)
In tho election for Governor last year the
day's work resulted as lollows:
For Smyth (Republican) 31 145
t ot Harrington (Democrat) ili 017
Eeputillcan msjoritr 6,123
It will be seen, however, by comparing the
vote of hint vear on each sidu with that of 1804.
that Smyth's majority of six thousand was not a
itcpttbliuai gain upon the vote of Lincoln, but
it clear Democratic Io.h of some four thousand
upon the vote of McClellan. Encouraged by the
appearances ot tutors at Washington, the Demo
crats have evideullv exertsd themselves to brina
out this reserve vote, but have substantially
failed to shake tne advanced position gained by
me itcpaoucaus lust year.
THE DAlLl EVENING TELEGRAm. PHILADELPHIA, FRIDAY, MARCH 1G, 18GG.
8uch is the renlt of this late New Ilampshlre
election. How are wo to account for it, in view
or the rupture betwn tho Republican party In
Congress and the President, elected Vice-l'reit-dent
on the ticket with Abraham Lincoln ? The
New Hampshire Democracy came out with fly
ing colors in support of President Johnson, and
in denunciation of the radical dolags of Con
frees; but the Republicans had tho advantage of
supporting both President and Congress, and
they were supported by both department. Tho
Administration, through Postmaster-General
Dcnlron, argad the integrity of the party, for at
thla Juncture it is tho policy ot President John
son to fight the radicals within tho Republican
lines. Moreover, the oder of Cotperkeaeum,
and the Otiicago Shent-per-shent Convention a
very bad odor still sticks to tho Democratio
party.
This fct was strikingly developed In our last
November election, wben one ot the most bril
liantly successful heroes of the war though put
on the Johnson platform, was beaten as the Demo
cratic candid.r.e by thirty tnousand majority.
In fact, from it obnoxious peace afTJltlons aud
peace movement during the war, the Democra
tic party has tost the confidence ot the people
who carried throagh the war. The party mast
tako a new shape and a new name belore It can
expect to accomplish any important political
revolntion. The party reoord of the war has killed
it as dead as the Bourbons. The new wine of
Johnson's policy cannot bo put Into the old
Democratic bottles of the Chicago Convention.
A new departare, tinder a new organization,
embracing the republican admvnittration con
servatives, is tho true course for tho Northern
remnants of tho old Democratio party. Snch,
we hold, is the party lesson from this late New
Hampshire election. The eama lesson will pro
bably bo repeated in Connecticut, although
there, abandoning the ritoal of Copperheadism,
the psrty is running for Governor a candidate
identified with the Conslitationnl amendment
abolishing slavery. This is a long step in the
right direction; but In order to meet the admin
istration and the new order ot things, the
Northern democracy muf t cast off their butter
not partv uniform, and como out in tha true
blue of the Union parly ot Andrew Johnson.
- s o
Fentanlsm and the Fright in Canada.
lYom tha iftroM. "3
Canada Is in a terrible state of alarm over the
bugaboo of invasion that it has conjured up in
its infantile imagination. Ot coarse every one
iu Canada abuses every one out of that wild
region, and raves, and scoldu, and whines with
the funniest fright and frenzy. The United
States is blamed for all, and the Canadian
words against us are aa exact description of
Canadian conduct two yearj ao. "Change but
the name, the tale is told of tkec." If the United
States had issued a proclamation and put down
tbo Fenian demonstrations, and so forth and
so forth, Calais, we ara told, would not have
been in this danser. How well these very words
apply to what Canada mirht have done aeaiust
our enemies wuom tine sneiteica, protected, and
encouraged !
And in virtue of this, if all were real that
Canada fears, she would get no more tlwa she
deserves. But her fear are vain and siily. Fe
nianism will never hurt her. TUere-ts too much
money in the institution for it tr accomplish
any such object. Oae branch in this city is now
in the daily receipt of Un thousand dollars, the
other of thre thousand dollars. Perhaps not
less than a hundred thousand dollars a day is
subscribed throughout the country. Will' the
Foainn leaders give up sneh a business as tins
to go to Canada and meddle with vlllauous salt
petre ? Would they even go to such a cold,
miserable, God-forsaken country to spend it,
with ail tac cities of the United States opoa tor
their revels, nnd all the world beforo them
where to choose. Oh no; Canada is Bale.
Some of the Consequences ol the Doctrine
that the Southern States are Out of the
Union.
From tk Timet.
Tho Iribune says:
"John T. Monroe, tbe 'National Dmeoratic' can
didate, whom wa stated surao ays ao was choen
Mayor oi New Orleans, was iho Kebul Uayor when
Butler and l'arrajcut took tliat city."
There Is danger of too many results of this
Character while the country is kept in a false
position. We are, as long as Congress holds that
States are out of the Union, enacting a lie. The
roversc of this proposition was affirmed in 1HG1
by an almost unanimous vote of Congress. To
maintain that position the people gave up mil
lions of treasure and rivers of blood. And now
Congress, after the Rebellion is conquered, stul
tify in? its record, holds that the Stales which we
utisted could not bo taken oat of tkc Union are
out of it! Snocess would have converted the
Rebellion into a revolution. Then the rebellious
States would have become an independent
Confederacy. Bat defeat leaves the States in the
Union and the Uoion intnet.
The question, and the only real question, is
for Congress to determine upon thu qualifica
tions of its members. And over that question
thfir power Is supreme. Tios simpliSed, diffi
culties disappear. But wnile it Is held that
States instead ot people were in Rebellion, all 1b
Binddled.
Congress has established the fact that ordi
nances' of secession did not take States out of
the Union by recognizing members from Ten
neispc,in their seats, after that State had seceded.
Now, however, Instead of proceeding to admit
or reject loyal representatives, it confounds
lovaltv with treason, by oxcludinr both classes I
Colonel Johnson, stanch and true to the Gov
ernment and Union from the bsnnirig, and
pacrlfdctng vastly more for his country than
those who shut the door In his lace, is rewarded
for bts gallantry and devotion by being treated
ns a Rebel. The men who deny Colonel John
son his neat did not, like that patriotic Union
man, oiler their lives ia tho field for their
country.
When Congrers refuses to discriminate be
tween loyalty and rebellion, confounding Union
poluiers with Rebels, what chance U there for
true men at the South? Ilbw can Union men
hope for election in New Orleans or Savannah,
when no enoouragement is given them at Wash
ington t
Smiling as a Senatorial ArU
JYrm IA Thru.
Few people, we suppose, pretend to compre
hend the whole of tho speeches, or the half of
tho theories, that have been elaborated In Con
gress during its present session. Their pro
fnndity, erudition, or subtlety, their metaphy
sical fineness or their metaphysioal magnitude-
one or other of these- characteristics has gene
rally proved too ninch for ns. We floundor in
the depths of Sumner or Saulsbury, and stum
ble over tho subtleties of Stevens or Ktroaso.
Even the simplest question seems complex, and
the plainest matters unintelligible. As we feel
ourselves penetrating the tuict darkness, we
generally stop short, and turn into lines of
thought of which th; coneloslon is visible.
But Senator Sprague Is not amenable to criti
cism of this sort. lie otten treats upon the vast
est and heaviest subjects, such as tho warehous
ing system and the tariff tha latter especially,
as it bears upon cotton manufactures; but he
elucidates every topic with such a skill, and
throws around them all such a charm, in at we
become faseinated as wo proceed, and grieve
when the close of tho speech breaks tbe spell.
Knowing his oratory only as It is givea to us
thioush the electric telerraph, which transmits
neither features nor intonations ;neither the lights
and shadows of the couutenanee, nor the ex
pressive gestures which glvo vivacity to thought;
neither the warmth of manner, the movements
of the facial muscles, nor the twinkle of the eye,
we have never been able to understand either its
full intrinsic power or tho iniluence It carried
among the grave and reverend suignorsof whom
be is one. But he himself has beeu pleaded to
give us what is probably the key to the whole
mutter.
A tnw days ago Senator Conness, of California,
brought a railing accusation against Senator
Pprague, of tiring or boring the Senate with
his speeches, and in its course ably alleged that
Senator 9pragne "pmiled" when ha rose to
apeak. To this Senator fiprague piomptly re
rUed 1n tho following terms not "hurling
bark tho Imputation in the gentleman's teeth,"
as has bo often ben done bv leaser orator,
when charged with discreditable characteristics,
but boldly acknowledging the corn, and admit
ting himself to beguilty even beyond the mea
sure ot tho accusation :
"I intend," exo'aimed !8enator Sprague, "I In
tel d always wben I rise in my seat tiero, to untile. I
consider the face that will umile only when it sees
something to raose it to smile and excite its Interest
as cot tbe kind I wish to have. I ao not with to
oeeuny that position. 1 bo iuve that the diseoiwion
of a question botoretha Heaate that interests mem
ber, rheuld be disenased in a fr loudly and smillnir
condition I trmt it will be tbe condition I skall
alwajs occupy in this body."
These be weighty remarks, and tho man who
can smllo alter perusing them can hardly be
aware of their significance, or of the purposes
for which Heavea giltad mortals with the power
of smiling. There is sueb a thine, perhaps, as
a Btnlle which costs the smiler nothing, bat yet
if a smile be put In the wrong place, it may be
productive t the gravest results. As for our
selves, wo intend neither to smllo after the
Senators' remarks nor to permit any of our more
wicked and thirsty readers to do so, bat to draw
from them a philosophical metal for the instruc
tion of Senators and the guidance of tha Ameri
can' people.
The leeson to be derived is tho moral power of
a smile. It Is not to be supposed that the Sena
tor bad tho intention of smiling without a pur
pose. Physiologists tell us that every move
ment of a muscle involves the expenditure of
foiee and the exhaustion of the physical powers,
la the simple act of smiling, some thirty-three
facial muscles are called into motion not to
vpeak of the preliminary motions of the brain.
To ftnlle, therefore, on rising to speak, beloro
beginning the speech, daring its course and after
Ita close, adds enormously to the amount ol effort
required la its delivery; and if naught be thereby
added to Its effectiveness, there is Just so much
dead wood, lint on the other hand, if, by
smiling when you- rise to make a speech, you
put your hearers In a good humor; If
cy another smile, just beforo beginning, you
rivet their attention; If, by a continuous suc
cession of em ilea as you go along, yon make
yourself tolerable; and if, by rounding off with
a entile and appending another as you sit down,
you induce ahelief in yonr convictions and a
vote lor vour bill, can it be said that the thing is
destitute of mora! power? That the results we
have JiiBt enumerated are sure to follow we ap
peal to the records of Congress. Wo appeul to the
recoids of other legislative bodies. Lord Pal
rj'.Piston had always a smile on his faoe, and
where was there ever so successful a minister ?
Mr. Bright never smiles, and rarely curries a
measure. The face of the Marquis do Boissy is
always wreathed in smiles, whilo the counte
nance of M. Rouher is leaden as Lis speeches.
Wo do not care about coins into an enumeration
ot all the members of Congress who are capa
ble" ot indulging in smiles, and who take pains
to bring them fo the surlane as frequently us
our text inculcates; out let any interested
reader procure the pnotcgrnphs of members and
examine tbe expression of cotintcnanco each
one assumed while bemg taicen, and then lot
him read tho Fpeeches, study the measures, aud
examine th" votes from day to day, photographs
in hard, and our word lor it he will tindthat
members are just successful ia their oratory and
their schemes in proportion to the sweetness
and frequency of tbe smiles which hover around
tneir countenances. The most mischievous
members of Congress in precipitatins" tho great
Rebellion were men who never opened or closed
their speeches with a smile. Toombs had a per
manent ecowl on his face; Wiglall occasionally
leerpd the very opposite ot such smiling as
Senator Spraguo descanted upon; Mason accom
panied hi? Bpeeehes with rood gesture"', but no
sweet smiles; Benjamin occasionally smiled, nnd
so also did Jeff. Davis, but they were the mean,
aesignmg, smirsing smiles ot tne political con
tpirutor, ana not eucn luminous eausious as
characterize the noble soul.
Viewed in this lifht, and by ihe?e examples
and gTcat results, tne reader can appreciate toe
Inherent significance, the moral power, and the
legislative force of a smile. And he will be
able to appreciate the Senatorial philosopher
who CHS Drought tue subject to our attention,
ana v no uiuttrutes its value in nis own career,
we close oy caning general attontion to a
public duty that now looms up in importance.
In choosing Senators and members of the
House, they must see to it that they elect men
who know how to smile, and not only know
now, but wbo do smile, natch their rucci
when they rise to deliver a speech, scan thera
as taey commence, Keep an eye on tnem as
they proceed, note them closely as thy wind
up, and give tbcm a parting glance aS they retire
to the rear. If to radiant enulas suffuse their
faces, cough them down and vote theai down.
Bat if, on the other Land, eaniles play on their
leatures as the sunshine on the lea, be assured
that they h ave these qualities and qualifications
ttat will illuminate ant illustrate their conn
trj's history, and vote tor them early and often
The Civil Hights Bill.
Frtm tlw Wrta.
Tlie Republican pnrty In Congress neem center-
mliiccl to provoke'tanother veto, and they will no
doubt succeed. The co-called Civil Eights bill,
which baa parsed tbe House With some mod ill -
catiariB of its original lorm, transcends, In spit
ef those modifications, ttat constitutional
authority of Congress. Tho thine It propoaei
to do are reufioaebie ana proacr auoiisn. in tueai-
Kchea; but they are thincs which beloii"; to th
JvriBdictitiH of the State (iovernmcnts. Tlie bti)
provides that "there thall ea no discrimination
la civil right or lmmuuititi umang citizens of
tne cmtu btati.s, in any mate or Xtititory ot
tb l uiteu btatts, on account ot ruce or color.
or previoas condition ot slavery." Ana it goe
on to cive specific guarantee! ot civil rights us
lollows:
"Tho sumo right to make aud enforce con
tracts, to tuo, be parties, and tire evidence, to
inherit, purchase, laie, fell, hold, und convey
renl and pcrt-onal property, and to fu'.l und
equal beuetit of all Iuwi and pioceediaj tor the
security ol person auu properly us is tiijoyeu by
white citizens, and sball oo euoiect to like pun-
ibhnient, pains, and penalties, andtonoae other,
any law, statute, or ordinance, regulation or
diatom to the contrary notwithstundiu1'."
it Congress bus authority to enact tucn a law
a this, .whence is it derived r It vua never pre-
tenaed that the (.'ouBtitutlou conterred sucti
authority previous to the auti-vlaverv amend-
irnt. The hist sactioa of that aaaenduiont
aicrelv kbeliehes slavery, and tbe second urn-
no wen Conrrtsa to cuts all laws necokaury to
mike its ubohtion etl'ectual. The slave acquires
no other rights unoer thi amendment than be
woald have aeauired bv voluntary manumission
by his master. Slavery is completely abolished
tt'lits the owiiarchin of the master hi eomnletelv
an nulled; aaci that pufrrautee of Ireedoui ia com
plete which prevent the resumption ol owner
ship. This la all the conHtitutional amendment
ulBKtd at; any other interpretatioa of it la
strained aad absurd.
The right which this bill aims, by an unwar
ranted aasuaaptioa of authority, to eontar, are
likely to bo iven by voluntary concession in
the aeveral Status. In Ceorma. tho two most
tntlnantial aaen ia the State. Alexander II.
Sterjluns and ex-Governor Brown, aro publicly
using their influence to procure these rignt for
the negro population. of that State; and when
an v Southern State takes tbe lead, the others
will be constrained to follow. The wealth of the
South hoe almost entirely in ltd lands, valueless
-without lubcr to cultivate them. The negroes.
as free mn, will to where they are best treated.
Ceoigia will aeqaire, by her justice and liber:
ahtv. a aiocoiiolv of cheap labor, unices the
otlii-r Ktatau ftillniv her exanmle.
There is ao baalne.s in the world so remuae-
rativ. at nreaent mid Tirosoective prices, a the
cultivation or cotton on goathern lands. Labor
la the greatest want in every part ot the South;
and tbe States are more likely to bid aitiuht
each other with brisk competition, than to deny
the tie ero his inst ricuts. The same motives will
pievaii aa in our Western States, where, in the
competition for immigrant labur. the elective
franchise was conferred ou unnaturalized aliens
as freely a on native citizens. Since the aboli
tion of slavery, tbo negro problem is sore to
solve itself by the operation of economio
causes; and the Civil JJignls bill is a fussy and
snperfluous a It is faotious and unconstitutional.
President Johnson has shown, ln some ot Lis
publlO utterances, that ho as fully tinderstands
the economic as the constitutional side of this
problem; and with tho views be is known to
hold, be cannot fail to veto this bill if it passes
the Senate. His views are so well known that
It looks as if tho Republicans were courting
another veto, cither In the hope of humiliating
the President by carrying this bill over tho
veto. or. with a view to Increase the unpopu
larity of the President with their party. So
mnch of the reasoning of tho veto message
applies eqnally againfit this, bill that we can
not see now any man coma nave vowu
for It withont thereby intending to defy the
lTcsiacnt.
