From Ik JYm.
In tbe recent debate In the British Parliament
on Itho reform question, the member for Hull,
Sir. Clay, presented a proposition for a bails ef
uffragc, which excited urh attention, but
-which the Ministry did not feel at liberty to
commit themselves upon.
lie urged that tlte tranoniso should be Riven
to all who could read, write, aid pass a certain
examination ia arithmetic, and who possessed
a certain Bin all amount of property. In some
respects Mr. Clay's measure was not so broad a
thst expected from the Ministry; for a thirty
dollar rental maoUrjclade some who can neither
read, write, nor pass an arithmetical examina
tion, though, on the other hand, stany fulfill
pass such an examination who did not occupy
even a cottage as a tenant.
'Ibe proposition which has met with at least a
respectful consideration in Eaaiund. ts a straw
shrwiDft how strong thedrJt w bow in Great
Lrituln towards a wide, popular enflrasro.
The current on this side, amour persons who
think, is at present In the opposite direction.
All our city coaiaaisaious, which are contemn
such untold blesiir.Rs on this community and
others, ore In direct opposition to the govern
meut ot universal suffruRe in lucal oomuoanltics.
The wholo Union is feeling the evils and curses
of Ignorant aid vicieus saBrsje, especially ia
that torm of opposition to the principles of the
Covtrnmcut which the low Copperuoud parly of
our err at cities has shown.
A I in oh t all reflective; men are begtinninir ts see
that the whole matter ot suffrage ia a pure
question of expediency. It can be given er
vnthneld or limited, aocordine: as the best Inte
rests of the Btate demand. Tbo elaim to it is
not like the claim to liberty or lc?al justice
anaiuralnght. We withhold it lrom many a
dceerviut; young man between seventeen and
twenty, and from still more deserving women,
and from certaia foreigners, because we judge
that on a broad scale society will be the better
trior the linilution. We give it unreservedly
to all tree wdite male citizens over twenty-one,
because our theory has been that the educating
influence of suOragre aad its equalising eitect.
and its attraction to the peasantry of Europe,
will more than counterbalance the evils of our
ignorant and debased votiag population. The
s;reut weakness in the position of our friends,
demanding universal anU'raRe for the frecdmon,
was in the peneral opinion ot the North, that we
"had gone too tar even in white enflVasej and
that w hat we bad tolt the evils of in our on
system we ought not to exiond to Southern
MK'iety.
llicy claimed as a right what was merely a
question ot public benefit. The strength ol their
position whtoh we fullv concur in was in the
claim that sudrage should never be limited by
race.
Tho turn and just middle oourse In this matter,
it seems to us, is to urge for the whole coinmu
nilv an Intelligence suffrage; that is, to make
the' basis of the right to vote every where the
ability, for instance, to read any passage,
selected bv the usual Judgea of elective qualifi
cation in the Constitution ol the United States,
and to write one's name legibly. Burn a test
could be recommended to every Southern Legis
lature to be applied to evory .negro, and on nis
julfilliug,the requirements he should he allotted
a voto.
A similar test abeuld be established In the
other States for every future voter (as it will
not bo popsiblo te excluoe present voters under
it). Such a law would at once shut out in this
city two-thirds of the new voters in such places
as the Five Points, Water street, the First Ward,
Rotten Row, avd all the dens or crime and igno
rance. It would shut out in all our cities the
areut proportion t the low. dangerous and
vicious class; it would exclude the children, as
they grow up, of some at our most degraded
mountain districts, unless tnev are educated; It
would give a new prop to the bulwark: of our
liberties our common schools: aad would
transform demagogues into school committees
end turn primary meetings into primary schools.
The alphabet would beuonse of more importance
than the brogue to our ward politicians, and a
good teacher ot writing become as influential as
is now a porter-house keeoer.
Such a provision at the Beuth would indeed
shut out lor a time the treat mass of the blacks;
but not lone, nr perhaps leDger ttian is do-
airutdo. TIikv learn Inst. It would elve a new
ptart to what na ben bo lamentably defective
tha popular eduentien of the poor white, and
would tend to remove one of tue causes of the
lute Rebellion Southern lgnorauce.
Tiie interest ol the white class would lie tmuo
d'atelr in educating its poor and degraded mem
bers. The nenecs would strain evry nerve to
educate tuetnselvca and their ehildrrn. There
would be a competition at once lu the primary
education of the two ruees. a result the most
definable that could be imagined for the inter
ests of the Union. There miu'ht appear to be
an liiiustice in giving suffrage now to ltruO'
runt whites and denying it to ignorant
blade. But all that we can say is, that no
legislation can secure Ideal lustice: tbe whites
have the suffrage now and the blacks have not;
we ran chance the futnre, but it would be
difficult, if not impossible to ehause ex
isting circumstances. And the existence of one
maiB ot ignorant voters is hardly a sound reason
for creating another. We would be glad to ex
clude tbe most ignorant whites both North and
South, but we caanot: therefore we mut pro
vide lor what, perhaps, we can accomplish ia
tbe luturo the excluding aH Ignorant persons of
wnatever race and color. Even tue lateuigeao
Buflrage is not a periect basis; but the science of
etuteRnuiuBbip is to discover the best thiuf trae-
ticable, and as this ha been tried ia this coun
try with good results, we hope to see the experi
ment c an lea out.
The National Cuirency Bureau and the

The letter of Comptroller Clark, criticizing the
otlicial reports and the course oi the Secretary
of the Treasury, has developed a very singular
state ot allalrfc at the national capital. It re
veal, however, only what has bsen tor some
time post known to exist a direct antagonistic
policy between those two financial officers of
the Government. One ii in favor of contraction,
and asks for legislation which will enable him to
control the money market and carry his views
into practice; while the other is opposed to any
such legislation, or the adaption of any arbitrary
measures to secure the inaption of specie
payments. It is from this disagreement that the
correspondence between Secretary McCulloch
and Comptroller Clark originated.
The lormer was appealing to Contrresi for the
oatnaee ot a bill that would confer upon him un
limited power, bo!b in exchanging one class of
oonds tor anotner ids retirement 01 tue
Treasury notes of all descriptions, and also in
nceetiutine loans both at homo aud abroad
This was the measure which the Beeretary pro
posed to ubo to carry out his contraction ideas
and tfccure a return to a specie basis. This mea-
. auru Comptroller Clark strongly opposed
Jn.,...a... ltfyif 'nilwill QaitAfTU llinff thlU tu.lt
wrute a note to Mr. Clark, stating thut he hud
been informed that he (Mr. Clark) was opposing
the loan bill aud advocated a policy contrary to
that which the Treasury Departmeut was labor
iuir to enforce. In conclusion, the Secretary re
ouepttd the Comptroller to favor him with hts
Hv, s, either in person or in writing, in the hope
tlii t in so doinz they misfit be able to agree
uv n one and the same policy, and act togetber
in 1 armonv.
'J o tins note Comptroller Clark replied on the
U'ii ol February at some length, trivina the
fl:'.b-t:;iice ol his ronsoua lor opposing the I juu
bill, fiorrctarv HcCnlloch eubrnnentv denied
come of the lacts Btated by Mr. Clark, no I the
result is the rejoinder of, tbe latter, which lias
proved to be 1 be financial sensation or tns nour.
appears, however, from the explanation of Mr. it
Hooper in debate m Congress, that the Comp
troller was la error in bis statements, in nis
abortions In relcrence to the Secretary's report.
The correspondence hag developed an ano-
mm? in allairs at Washington, inat mere
should be an open rupture between the two
principal Huaneiul officers of the (loverutnent,
and both retain their places, is looked uoon as
extraordinary. It has been generally supposed
that the Comptroller of the Currency wm a
subordinate officer of the Secretary of the Trea
sury, and amenable to html That tbe Secretary
should retain a person in office under bim who
is opealy opposed to his policy Is looked upon
as mysterious. But when wo come to examine
tbe bill creating the bureau and office ol Comp
troller of tue Currency, we bnd that he is not a
subordinate officer of the Treasury, but holds
an independent position, responsible, in laat,
nly to Conrress. Ilia otlicial reports and com
munications jure made, not to the Secretary, as
thoft of the heads of bureaus in that an art-
eat nre; nor are they made to the lrsident.
as is the case with tbe members of the Cab.net,
but to Congress direct.
mere is no oinciai or power Between nun and
Coarress; no provision for revision, save with
the lawmaking power. The appointment, it is
trte, is made by the President, upon tbe recom
mendation of the Seoreury of the Treasury; but
whea care appointed no removal can take place
except upon a written statement of tue reasons,
wuicuthaii De satisfactory to uor.gress. witti
tea present temper of Cougress it is doubtful if
the President will be able to furnish reasons
which Congroaa will deem satisfactory. We can
not thereiore fail to look upon thepiecedent
established in. creating this bureau aa detri
mental to the Interests of the Government, and
a serious mistake. It is the commencement of
tbe siftsra of disintegration which has brought
all the trouble, corruption, and profligacy in our
present city government. It is opening the
doers to the raase evils that we have experienced
in this metropolis, and the first step towards a
similar state ot allairs in the National Govern-
cat.
The Burean is a creation of ex-Secretary
Chase, and was adopted by Congress at the time
that tbo nialonty of the Senate sided with
Chase against Lincoln. It was no doubt pur
posely made an independent branch of the Gov
ernment to enbserve the political interests ot
the preswnt Chief Justice, ano enable him tho
better to make tho national bank system a errand
political power to advance his claims for tho
Presidency. Hence H was removed liotn all
danger of interference on the part of the Presi
dent or Secretary of the Treasury. Just as the
independent bureaus were created in uur citv
government to advance personal ends, so wa
this to subserve private ambiPon, iintead of the
interests et the country. One of the firt fruits
is now sen in the disagreement of two financial
tlicers. and want of hurinonv in the executive
departments. This ovil sluuld be corrected at
OLce, or still more serious und alurming lesulls
may follow.
lhe President and Congress, r
frm 1h Tribune.
The editor of the New York Times has been
exclusively favored with an avalanche of letter
from ail pait of the coun ry, whereof tho burden
is approval and commendation ot his course in
Congress, and elsehere relative to leconstruo
tien. lie is one of the C or 8 out of tho 110 Re
presentatives in Congress elected on Lincoln
and Johnson tickets who oppose the largo ma
jority of both Houses and nphold what is called
the President's policy;" and these 6 or 8 dissen
ters are in accord so hlu correspondents assure
him- with the prevailing sentiment of the Union
party! Here are a tew specimens of tholr
views:

There are several columns like the above.
but these aro enough. They constrain us to say
that the editor ot the Times is not deceived but
deceiving. Mo knows that the sentiment of tbe
Union party ts not such as he represents It. For
hero are the Legislatures of many, perhaps most,
ot the loyal Siates , in session; besides which,
there have recently keen neld State Conventions
ot tbe union party in Connecticut, Indiana, and
Pennsylvania. These Legislatures, these Con
ventious are authentic expositors of Union ben-
tmient. Which one of them barely one has
spoken of "7had. Stevens," his followers and his
views, in the spirit of these letters? Which one
of them has declared that, so far as they differ.
ice rreetaent is right ana congress wrong r Wc
challenge tbe production of barely one!
liu n ore: vve have in this city a Union Cen
tral Committee, largely composed of Federal
office-holders, and whereof a decided maiority
was chosen by tnat type or "conservative'
Unioaism whereof the 2.mc.i is the recognized
organ. IT it could be counted on to indorse "the
Pr'tideat t policy," it would have been assem
bled to do so long; a?o. Why is it not assem
bled? Why does it not indorse? The facts sug
gest the answer.
ibo worst ol lhe atmes' man'festo is 'its ob
vious teadeney to widen the breach between
the President and Congress. It assumes that
Coagress is to bo overridden and broken down.
It doe not suggest nor invite conciliation. It
does not treat the inattor in difference as one
susceptible of accommodation and adjustment.
Its tenor is belliftrent. rampant, reckless.
True, it on not 0,11110 accord with the Daily
jN'ru-s aid other Rebel oracles in demaudiug the
proscription of all Federal office-holders who
latent from "tne l'rssideats policy;" but it
co quite as far as the World In treating the
maiority of Congress as practical if not inten
tional disunionists, and so deserving ot tue
strongest reprobation.
This is not the spirit in wbich our grave re
sponsibilities are to be met. It eertaialy will
not aid us to discharge thnsn. We hold that
there is no necessary incompatibility between
tue rresidenvs essential position and objects and
those of Congress. Tbo President wants the
States lately ia revolt restored to a full partici
pation in tho national councils; Congioss wants
their freed men fully protected and their rights
as tree citizens reoognized aad established. The
Pretldent thinks that loyal men should bear
sway in the States lately in revolt; Congress
adds "without distinction of color." Why can
not these differing views be harmonized? We
insist that they can they may be. Only let
tbe South admit her blacks to all the rights of
free ssaahood; thereupon let the North agree to
a perfect universal amnesty, aud oblivion for
all a'jls done under color of secession, aud
we shall oneo more be a united people, with
our Slates thoroughly restored, and the Union
reconstructed. Why isuot such an udjustuieut
practicable? '
Mr. IIuiLnrd on Finance.
From the Tribune.
We take all reasonable precautions agaiast
estonlsbment, and vet Mr. Hulburd's speecli on
tbf finances lias amazed us not that such a
speech should be made there are several mem
beis lrom v. bom we cnuld have beard of such a
speech without surprlxe, but not lrom Calvin T.
Hulburd, whom we have always, tied tj aa a
champion of honesty and solvency in finance.
Just consider this passage;
"lie strenuous y objected to granting the pover
In addition to retire by paying erfundlmr the non-lnteiest-bearina;
letal teners a species of currency
I'Veiy wheie popu ar end aconptable until tbe short
01 ligations were provided ler,"
Docs Mr. Hulburd take the Secretary of the
Tieasurv tor a born idiot f If not, how can be
lmecriau that that officer will begin by contract
ing the currency, thus creating a stringency in
the money market, and so rendering it impossi
ble to place new bends, Just when he is attempt
ing to conTey nearly one bilhen of short-time
nitereft bearing obligations into long bonds? If
not, what can be mean by talking as above?
Why not propose that the Secretary shall not
have power to take all the long bonds hitruelt at
tin per cent, above their market value?
Hear him again:
'Be objected thst the bill continued in peacoths
vast war powers ol tbe f-tcretmy over tbe currency
ai d tho business of tbe country. He tnongiit tho
becrcmry liouki jrive pub ic notice 01 tbe kind and
mount, and tbe priority of pieaoi.tatlon, ot the lis,
kinks to bo retired. "
That Is to say: The Secretary should always
redeem tho dearest instead of the cheapest secu
rities In market, and should so act as to run np
the price of any description of the National
debt that he wishes to redeem and cancel. We
dely any man who knows evon the A B Cs of
finance to eay that this would not be the precise
and necessary eflcet of the Secretary's giving
such "public notice" as is here demanded. If
Nr. McCulloch were to-morrow to give notice
that he will proceed next month to pnrchase and
cancel the interrst-bearlng Treasury notes, or
tbe Certificates of Indebtedness, or any one de
scription ot tbe public debt, that description
would inevitably be rendered dearer and more
difficult to purchase by that notice. To adopt
Mr. Hulbiird's suggestion on this point would
thus cost the country many millions of dollars.
And for what?
As to the Secretary's "vast war powers," they
will cea?e when our debt is funded and specie
puyments resumed. We had counted confidently
on Mr. Hulburd'a aid in ell'ccting that most
righteous consummation. That we are to en
counter instead his opposition is a painful sur
prise that we receive; "more In sorrow than in
anger."
