THURSDAY, JANUARY 31, 18G7. An Old Conflict on a New Field. We must never lorgct that our present poli tical difficulties are a pait and parcel of the late Rebellion. During that great struggle a portion of the States withdrew tbe'r repre sentatives from Congress, refused to partici pate further in the Government of the Union, defied their constitutional obligations, changed the form of their local State govern ments, so that they (should be Independent of the Union, entered into a Confederacy, and made a long and desperate war against the United States, with the avowed purpose of overthrowing its Government, and building upon its ruins a slave empire, whose corner stone should be the dcspo;lc doctrine of human inequality. That war cost the nation a loss of liie and an expenditure of money unequalled in any etruggle of modern times. We came out of it burdened with a national debt of almost appalling magnitude, and which must necessarily impose upon us and our children after us a fearf ul load of taxa tion. It is in the light of these facts that we must look at the political problems which press upon us for solution. True statesman ship will not attempt to solve them by verbal quibbles and technicalities. They must be con templated in that broad spirit of reg ard for the highest welfare of the nation, which car ried us so successfully through the struggle of arms. The least possible demand that the nation can make, bo fore it adnrts these late rebel lious and warring communities to a partic'pa tion In the power of the Government, is that we shall bo reasonably secured against a repetition oi the terrible struggle through which we have just gone. The law of self preservation demands this. We know that these communities are still hostile to the nation; that their affections do not cluster around the flag of the republic; that they do not acknowledge the rightfulness of our tri umph over them, but that they have simply yielded to overpowering physical force. Their demand now is to be restored to that political power which they discarded when they went Into the Rebellion. This insures them admission to a share in the control of the purse and .the sword of tbe nation. It is, In short, putting the nation's resources in the hands of the nation's enemies. To do this would be mere infatuation. Indeed, the Southern demand goes further than mere restoration to the power they abandoned when they took up arms agninst the nation. They demand, first, the privilege of disfranchising a large portion of the citizens of the United States inhabiting with them the districts com prising the old Rebel States, and that portion those who were conspicuous for their devo tion to the loyal cause. They demand a reconstruction based not upon republican, but upon aristocratic principles. They claim to evade, as far as possible, a conformation to the social changes occasioned by the war. They would return to power with State or ganizations denying the fundamental princi ples of a republican form of government. The whole reconstruction problem is, there fore, a mere prolongation of'the great struggle which has passed from the field of physical strife to that of political contention. The Rebels are striving to save for aristocracy all that they can from the debris of their over thrown Confederacy. Philosophically, they are but fighting the battle over again in a new field and with new weapons. On the other side, the masses of the people, imbued with a sp'rit of genuine republicanism, are carrying forward the great cause of popu lar rights to a certain victory. The Presi dent, by his Insane policy, may delay the consummation, but he cannot prevent it. All the mighty forces of society are working in one direction, and in the end they will sweep all obstacles out of the way. fold and Silver Mining Statistics. Tiik report of Mr. J. Ross Browne, who was appointed under act of Congress Special Commissioner ol the Treasury Department for the collection of s atistical information concerning the gold and silver mines of the Western btates and Territories, shows the total products of the mines of gold and silver in our country during the past j ear to have ben one hundred and six millions of dolhirs. California still takes the lead, her product beins estimated at twenty-five millions of dollars ; Montana comes next, vi 1th a yield of eighteen millions; Idaho and Colorado are each put down at seventeen millions; Nevada at sixteen millions; Oregon at eight millions; and all other places at five millions. This product la more than four times as great as was the annual product of all the mines in the world less than thirty years ago. To those who are acquainted with the facts in regard to the resources and development of the mines of our precious metals, it is evident that gold and silver mining is des tined, at no distant day, to become one of the most Important branches of our national in dustry. Indeed, it has already attained to that position. The value of the production ol ron.coal, copper, lead, and salt in the whole country for the year 1800, as given by the census returns, was less than one hundred millions of dollars. The total value of cotton oods manufactured that year was only one hundred and fifteen millions of dollars. But gold and silver mining Is a ill in its infancy. Montana, whose annual product stands second on the list, is less than five years old as an organized territory. Its quartz lodes, which are its chief source of wealth, are as yet hardly touched. So with California; it is only within a very few years that quartz mining baa Here been extensively entered upon, and the supply is literally Inexhaustible. We know that silver mines have been worked in Mcxtco, Teru, and Europe for hundreds of years, without the ore giving out. Nevada has one hundred and seventy-nine sliver miues now In operation, with room lor hun dreds more. There seems no reason to doubt that the mines of gold and silver in our country are practically inexhaustble. Nor Is the business of gold and bilver mini ig, when legitimately followed, of a peculiarly hazardous character. The productive quality of a quartz lode may easily be tested before extensive Improve ments are made. The product Itself never lacks a market, can never be in excess of the demand, and h easily and cheaply trans ported. The only necessary hazard is in re gard to honest and prudent management a risk which has to be assumed in all branches of business. Mr. Browne's report contains many facts of interest bcjrlngupon the mineral resources of the West, and is a valuable contribution to the statistical history of the country. Kentucky Avenged. Vk tender to the United States S-nate our siuccrcst sympathy because of the brief tele graphic despatch from Louisville. We can imagine the blank despair, the unutterable resignation, which came over that body when it began to be whispered that "Garrett Davis is re-elected for six years." We almost believe that Nemesis is now satisfied. The desolated plantations of Kentucky, ruined by Yankee vandalism, are now avenged; the loss of slaves is compensated for ; the dead Rebel portion of the population have now had tbeir deaths avenged by t'ie living Kebels; whatever suffering has been inflicted on Kentucky by the North, has now been repaid to the North by Kentucky. At the instigation of the racical Senate, we have given her abolition, ruination, and in many cases depopulation and she, without heaping coals of fire on their heads, returns them Garrett Davis. We suppose many of our readers have listened to the oratorical powers of the newly elected Senator. We do not give him greater praise than be deserves when we say that he can talk longer and say less than any man now living. lie speaks slowly, so slowly that the hearer frequently believes that be has forgotten what to say, and while uttering oracular sentences in the most deliberate manner, imparts less Ideas than any public man. As a general rule, he cannot condense his remarks into less than four hours, and on two occasions during each session he owes It to his constituents to get oil a two days' oration, wbveh covers some forty-eight pages of printed pamphlet. As there is now no hour ru e aud no previous question in the Senaie, the infliction must be borne. And now, Just when It was fondly hoped the Incubus would be removed, when every candidate's chances looked brighter than his, the tide is turned by vengeance in his favor, and for six mortal years must his intolerable long speeches be endured. Considering that Mr. Davis possesses none of the qualifications of an orator or statesman, he has been for many years occupying an ill apportioned share of popular attention, lie was born in 1801. Alter serving In the Legislature tor several years, he was elected to Congress in 1839, where he remained until 1849. From that time until 1801, when he was chosen Senator he devoted himself to his profession of law, and also spent consider able time in ex ; erimental agriculture. At the outbreak of the war he was sent to the Senate, where his voice has never been raised on any but the side which lent a tacit sym pathy to treason, ne was a disciple of Clay while tho latter lived, but on his death Davis forsook the doctrines of his patron. We suppose that for six years more we will find bis votes all in opposition to liberal and enlightened progress. The New Tax Bill fob Philadelphia.
