The warning of tin Maiue emotion came not a moment too noon for tho welfare of the Re publican party. The Wert furnishes abun dant Indications or the danger It encounters as a consequence of tbe determination of cliques and faction- to foixt upon it issues quite foreign to the recognized objeoU of its organization. Senator Grimes' vigorous pro test against the attempt to make lie prohibi tory tariff a test of party orthodoxy, receives the endorsement of the leadiup Republicans of his State. General Uaker, Adjutaut-UHueral, and one of its most inlluential men, writes "that if the tariff lobby succeed in interpo lating into the creed of the Republican party a prohibitory tariff plank, and making that the issue, the Republican party of the Northwest will be smabhed to atoms." btrong as the statement is, we are persuaded that it does not transcend the truth. Throughout the Northwest the Republican press is unanimous in its denunciation of the combinations which, try to manipulate the action of Congress on the tariff question; admitting the necessity of tigh duties in existing circumstances, but re sisting any assertion of tlie prohibitory prin jiit.le in the interest of classes. The temperance question in its prohibitory aspect ia another source of party weakuess elsewhere than in Maine or Massachusetts. In Michigan the recent Convention proposed to engraft the doctrine upon the Btate Constitu tion, wisely-consenting, however, to submit it to a separate vote. In Illinois and adjacent States zealots seek to invest prohibition with legislative and ultimately with constitutional sanotion, and the intolerant spirit in which they promulgate their views threatens to alienate from the Republican party a large proportion of the German vote. The earnest ness with which General Carl Schurz remon strates against "att-mpts to use the Republi can organization to indict on the community arbitrary legislation, encroaching on individual rights in connection with temperance and Sun day questions," shows the depth to which popular feeling has been stirred on the sub- iect, and the folly of those who would ein tarrass the party with extraneous questions. General Leib, a leader among the Germans of Illinois, in a published letter alleges "that so much harm has already been done, that noth ing but an earnest protest of the whole Repub lican press of the State" against the course pursued, and an explicit expression of this view in the next State platform of the party, 'will secure to the Republican party the future political support of the radical German element." , These signs of the times should not be dis regarded by those who would preserve the unity and power of the Republican party. The period is not one in which it can afford to assume the responsibility of every cry which individuals raise in the Republican name, or by intolerance in any form to furnish provo catives to division. The great work of restor ing the nation and guaranteeing permanence to the results achieved by the war remains to be completed, and until this be done no new issue should be entertained. The future has im portant questions in reserve, and the tariff is one of them. But it Were criminal to antici pate causes of party difference or to divert publio attention, however slightly, from the momentous task with which it has been en trusted by the country. Forbearance, mode ration, and liberality in interpreting the motives and aims of others are qualities which the Republican party cannot too sedulously cultivate in the present critical condition of national affairs. Amnesty Pardon. JVow the JV. Y. 2Vtbune. The Staals Zeitung labors heavily to turn the. flank of the act of Congress which ex pressly prescribes the qualifications of voters in reconstructing the Rebel States, and whiuh as expressly prescribes that no amnesty or par don by the President shall operate to enfran chise those who' are thus precluded from Toting because of their conspicuous part in the late Rebellion.

They have played a confidence game upon the public, and, acting as tlie masters rather than tho THE DAIL1 EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 18G7. servants of the people, have defied the senti ment of the country. TliU infamous conduct has produced its frnlt. The publio mind i becoming enlightened, and a general reaction lias set in. The radical press, though evidently mnoli alarmed, attempts to explain away tlie true cause of the Republican losses in Maine and California; but that Is a hopeless task. Kvery one knows the cause is general; that looal issues have had little to do with it, and that it lies in the dissatisfaction of people generally with the negro supremacy policy of the radi cals. It is found, in fact, in the common sense and patriotism of the mans of the people re volting against the faithlessness and destruc tive measures of Congress. But our corres pondence shows beyond doubt that an extra ordinary reaction is going on in all the great Central States and in the West. The general issue as regards negro suffrage and negro supremacy is the same everywhere the same in Pennsylvania, New York, Ohio, and the other States, and the same as entered into the elections in California and Maine. In these latter States, however, the contest was tame compared with what it will be, from all appearances, in the elections to come off during the next two month3. There is an other important question looming up pro minently in the canvass, particularly in Ohio and other parts of the West, and that is the financial question. This threatens to prove as disastrous to the radicals as their niggjr worshipping policy. The Chase radical policy for perpetuating a moneyed oligarchy and despotism is viewed with as much disfavor in the West, amoug all parties, as negro supremacy. The mass of the Repub licans, as well as the Democrats, are bitteily opposed to the national bank mo nopoly, to contraction of the currency, to the bondholders being exempt from taxation, and to all the other measures of Chase, McCulloch, and their friends in favor of a moneyed oligarchy. The industrious classes the farmers, laborers, mechauics, and tra les men see ruin staring them in the face if this wretched financial system be perpetuated. They see that an enormous debt will be fas tened upon them, their labor taxed beyond forbearance, their means of paying their taxes and debts greatly reduced, and the prospect of universal bankruptcy; and all to favor the national bank monopoly, the bondholders and capitalists. Looking at the npld growth of public opiidou in opposition to the radical financial policy, there is reason to believe the party will be defeated in the Wctt on this issue alone. The whole tenor of our corres pondence indicates such a result. But the main question occupying the publio mind at present, is that of negro hull'rage and a negro balance of power in the republic. The prospect of the whole South being governed by the ignorant and uncivilized negroes, of these benighted blacks holding the balance of political power in the republic, of taking their seats in Congress, and of dominating over the people of our own superior race, with the de gradation and ruin that must follow these are tlie thoughts so repulsive to the mass of the Northern people. It is t his fearful prospect. brought before us by radical rule, that has created a revulsion in the publio mind, and that will surely overwhelm the part that has brought the country to such a deplorable con dition. The great reactionary movement of the day is not one in favor of the Democratic party, and least of all in favor of the Copper head faction. The questions at issue are new; old party dogmas and platforms have become obsolete. The masses of the people which have voted on both sides are now couiiug together as the great constitutional party. They are disgusted with the disorganizing aud revolutionary conduct of the radicals, aud with the infamous attempt to Africanize the re public by creating a negro balance of power. That is the real state of things; aud if we mis take not the signs of the times, the radicals will be defeated in the great Central States, as well as in the West, at the coming elections. The moderate and conservative Republicans should throw of their destructive leaders aud unite with others to form the great constitu tioiial party of the future. Iudlan Councils aud Iudlau War, From the W. Y. Herald. We learn, by ppecial telegram, that the In dian ultimatum to our Commissioners is "the withdrawal of the troops from the Powder river country and the abandonment of the Fnioky Hill Pacific Railroad." They also de mand "guns, ammunition, and presents." This is the result of the tedious and useless attempts to arrange our Indian difficulties peaceably. It is no wonder the Indians insult us. Wo niijjlit well expect it atter teaching them, through our dishonest agents, that wo are as unreliable as they are themselves. Respect for us they have none, and least of all for our military prowess. They have tried their skill and strategic powers with our regular army, to find us their inferiors. Now they say, "We do not want peace, because when we are at peace we are poor; now we are rich." This is all too true; for how can they be other than poor when an Indian appropriation of fifty thousaud dollars will, before it reaches the frontier, dwindle down to one red blanket and a string of beads t In war, owing to their more rapid tactics, they can make their ovn approprH tious, and that. too. from the Goverumeutaup- plies to our army. They constantly do it, aud scarcely a day passes in which we fad to chronicle the loss of army wagons, the driving oil of cattle aud horses from some outpost, aud the useless pursuit by our sluggish troops. Our tactics do not lit the war, and our army brains, schooled iu the grooves of a routine out of which they appear worthless, are totally at a loss how to hold the Indians in hand. We annually bleed our treasury mauy millions of dollars for Indian war purposes on ce hand and Indian presents on the other. In peace we furnish them with all the munitions of war they may desire, aud in war we wonder where they get their weapons. The old Spaniards were wiser than we in dealing with the Indian tribes on this continent, for they made it a criminal offense to sell firearms to an Indian. An Indian war is, however, upon us. The blunders, right and left, which have made it necessary will not now mend affairs. We must to-day accept the fact, look it in the face, and prepare to fight it out. The question is, how cau it best be brought to a conclusion t Certainly not by our regular troops; for the whole past history of our frontier indicates a complete failure of the army whenever this duty has been assigned to it. There id but one method, and that is by volunteers. The Governor of every frontier State and every territory should have authority to keep the Indians quiet iu his diBtiict, aud to raise a suf ncieut, volunteer force for the purpose the W to to he paid by the general Government. froT our IiT0lniBep omcrs.

Republican Rraponiibiiity for Official Cornqitlou, fYom the JY. Y. World. It would be of great service to the political education of the people, if they could be made to understand two or three simple, central ideas in the 'Science of government. It is the chief function of government to pr dect its subjects against injustice; first, against the injustice of other organized political communi ties, or, in other words,against foreign aggres sion; secondly, against the rapacity and bad passions of members of the same community. Of these latter, crimes of fraud require more constant vigilance than crimes of violence, as there are thousands of rascals who will cheat for every ruffian who would maim or murder. The prevention of fraud, therefore, is the chief burden of the ordinary duties of government; and as government is administered by human Wings of like passions with the rest, and greater opportuuiea for knavery, protection against the,r rapacity is the principal eud of political evertion. In a iree government this piotection is attainable only through the agency of parties. Political parties have an adequate motive to watch aud expose each other, and it is only by such mutual arraign ments at the bar of public opinion that the administration can be maintained in that de gree of puiity which human aff.ir3 admit of It is only by holding the party in power responsible for the malfeasance of its members, that the community can be protected. On this righteous principle, the Republican Tarty is responsible for the enormous and astounding corruption which pervades all de partments of administration, but which, at the present moment, is most conspicuously ex hibited in the collection of the internal reve nue. The Democratic party is obviously not responsible, since none of its members are in official positions, and it has no power to turn out any corrupt officer, except by the dilatory method of carrying the elections. It cannot with any justice be pleaded in ex tenuation of Republican culpability that the legislative and executive departments do not co-operate. The Republican party elected both, and are as responsible for the conduct of one as for that of the other. Moreover, the nominations of the President go for nothing till confirmed by the Senate, which makes the Republican Senate equally answerable with 41... n 1.1: .! i ..i . . i qmuiu;nu i reMueiii ur incapable or cor J rupt officers. That corruption exists on the i moi-t gigantic fcale. is undeniable; the whisky ; frauds that are every day coming to light shut- ting the mouths of all gainsayers. TheRepub ; lican party "must bear the full blame of all this ; rottenness. It is no business of its opponents i to be very exact in apportioning their respect ! ive f-hares to Congress "and the Executive. It it is asseed by one of the Republican organs ! the Trihuuc that the Government is losing i two hundred million dollars a year by the ! whisky frauds alone; aud what the Govern ment thus loses is taken out of the pockets of j the people to swell the di.-honest gains of the , di.-tillers and the revenue officers who connive ! at their rascality. An administration under which such injustice is perpetrated cannot be i saved from public odium by a reciprocation of ; invectives between the President and Con j gress. These two branches of the Goveru- merit are answerable joiutly and severally, ! and the party which elected them is respo'n j sible as a unit, for a system which, instead of i protecting the people, is itself the chief engine of their robVery and oppression. ! It cannot be denied ilint j art of the blame belongs to Congress. We do not complain i that the whi.-diy tax is high; it ought to be ' high. The tax on distilled spirits ' is a chief i source of revenue in other Governments, and j there is no reason why it should not be in , ours. But when Congress imposed so high a I tax as two dollars a gallon on whisky, it ; should have strengthened, iu every practi j cable way, the machinery for its collection. , The cost of manufacturing whisky is not more ' than fnrtv emits a nallim tvrn drtllni a Ij lm-.i fore a tax of five hundred per cent. A duty of thirty per cent, on imported goods is high enough to encourage smugglers, aud it should have been foreseen that a duty fifteen times as high would hold out a powerful tempta tion to illicit distillation. We love to be ingenuous, and must concede that while en gaged in framing the revenue laws, Con-res stenied not wholly unmindful of its duty. But it acted (to borrow a dairyman's simile) like a cow which gives a good pailful of milk and then lifts her foot and kicks it over. The fanatical zealotry of Congress on the recon struction question impelled it to risk the pub lic revenue for the sake of spiting the Presi dent. Bv Dassinrr the 'IVnni nf ntl'wa Kill and taking from him the power of removal, it showed how recklessly it was willing to jeo pard the revenue to gratify party passions. We have indeed no evidence that matters would be any better if the President could promptly remove every offic er in the revenue service; the power signifies little, where there is no disposition to use it. But in the bauds of a vigorous and faithful Executive, tho power of summary dismissal would be a capital salt guard against frauds. Instead of waiting for their actual perpetration, he could iu many cases prevent them. There may be hun dreds of cases where doubts are entertained of the honesty of officers against whom there would be no sufficient grounds for legal proceedings. The power of removal at the pleasure of the Executive meets all such cases, in which an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure; as well as all the cases in which the slackness of an indolent disposition in spires the efficiency of the officer, but yet alloids no tangible ground for his removal on criminal charges or thu evidence of transpired facts. With the high internal taxes imposed by Congress there was a necessity for increas ing, it possible, the facilities for holding the civil officers of the Government to a prompt responsibility. The two parts of the Congres sional system do not match each other. To lay very high-taxes, and take away the chief means of enforcing their honest collodion, is not so much to establish a system of revenue as to organize a gigantic machinery of fraud. This is what tho Republican Congress, im pelled by party motives, have done; and the party cannot escape responsibility. But the Republican Executive cannot shield itself behind this curtailment of power, uuless it has made a prompt aud faithful use of such authority as Congress lias left or conferred. If the Executive does not exert Buch power as it has, what warrant have we for supposing that it would make a better use of more f We do not see how Secretary McCulloch, in parti cular, is to escape censure. The President is indeed responsible for him, as the Republican party is for the President, and for the count less hosts of Republican offioers whom he has put (or kept) in office. But Mr. McCulloch has the revenue system of the Government in charge; it is his special duty to superin tend it. It is a disgrace to his department that a vast system of fraud, so hugely gigan tio as that which is now lieiug disclosed should havfl grown up under his administra tion and ripened to such rank rotteuuess before the offenders are found out and pro- Zx "'V?.1', ," not Insensible to the disore.lit; but it is the sensitiveness of a weak man who shuns censure by concealment, int. cad of boldly doing his duty. In the Calli cott cape, things have gone on from May till near October without a publio explosion, and proceedings against the delinquent seem to have been extorted at last only by the impos sibility of longer concealment. Similar frauds are perpetrated in every part of the country. The revenue system is like a body covered ill over with the ripe pustules of the small-pox, and the physician gives his first dose of medi cine in this advanced stage of tho disease, although the patient has been under his care from the beginning. The Government is losing two hundred million dollars a year by these whisky frauds alone, and most of these frauds must have taken place with the con nivance of revenue officers. It is quite a different matter from the evasion of the customs duties by smuggling. The smug gler carries on his trade by escaping the surveillance of officers; but the whisky thieves operate under the very nose of officers, and could not possibly sucoeed with out their collusion or connivance. We shall watch the disgraceful develop ments now in progress with close attention, giving due support and hearty applause to vigilant and honest officers, but sparing no man, high or low, who shriuks from doing his whole duty. We expect developments more abounding than any that have yet been made. The Democratic party washes its hands of all complicity with any branch of the Republican administration, which has afforded a cover for these enormous frauds by occupying the pub lio attention with the protracted squabble between a Republican President and a Repub lican Congress. We own no stock in either branch of the concern, and see no remedy but in turning out both parties to the quarrel. The Contest in Ohio. From the N. Y. World. Federal politics are very prominent in the Ohio campaign, but State politics are influenc ing the result te a degree scarcely suspected by the politicians of other States. 1. Concerning the issues raised in the plat forms of the two parties as to the policy of the General Government. The Republican plat form, adopted on the 19th of July, without disguise asserts that the war has taught us a lesion in politics as to the interpretation of I our Federal and local debts. It asserts tha ! we are "not a Confederacy of sovereign and independent States," but a nation; and then clinches this assertion with the non sequititr mat wnue "opposed to an attempts at cen tralization or consolidation of power any where," it holds that liberty of human rights "constitute our great national boon, whioh local or State organizations must not be allowed to abridge or take away 1" Such a preciouB jumble of political philosophy could only find "concatenation accordingly" in the brain of its author, General Schenck. The Democratic platform, on the other hand, de nounces the Congressional legislation in de tail, denounces the ex- mption of the Govern ment bonds fiom taxation, and it recites the canons of Democratic faith as to the spheres of the Federal and State Governments. On general national politics the issues are squarely made, and are being ably debated throughout the State, from Portsmouth to Cleveland, and from Belle Air to Greenville. 2. Concerning the issues raised in the two platforms on questions of State politics: The pivotal point is the proposed amendment to the State Constitution, which is yet interlaced with the general radical policy of negro suffrage. The Republicau platform asserts that "the radicals place themselves on the broad platform of impartial manhood suf frage, as embodied in the proposed amend meut to the State Constitution." This amendment rs familiarly known in Ohio as the "Gizzard foot amendment. " It reads as follows: "liesolvcd. By the General Assembly of the fiaie oi unio, inree-imus oi tlie members elected, to eacu House agreeing thereto, thai it be aud bert-by Is proposed to tho e.ectors of this teiiiie to vote ai ine ucxi annual October elec tion upon the approval or rt jocilon of the lol luwlni; amendment oh a substitute for the first Sf-ctlou of the fifth article oi the Constitution of UJk state, to wli: Jiivery male citizen of the United States, ot the age of twenty-one years, who shall have been u resident of theBtate oue year next preceding tlie election, and of the county, township, or ward In which lie resides such time as may be provided by law. exeunt such persons as have borne arms In support of any insurrection or reneuion against i.ne uov eminent of Ine United Slates, or huve fled from their places of residence to avoid being drafted into ine mimary service inereor, or nave dc serted the militarv or navul service of said Gov- niinient lu time of war, and have not sub sequently been honorably discharged from tlie same, blmll have the qualiiicallonsof an elector, unci uo en ii neu 10 vote at nil elections." To understand this amendment, it must be observed that in the present Constitution, made by the Democracy in 18.11, the word white qualities the male citizen lor suffrage True, by the decision of the Republican Courts in- Ohio, and by the practice of the Judges or JUectiou In Republican localities, male citizens vote who can swear that they have more white than black m their blood. In other Words, mulatto or colored is white, according to Republican theory and practice. This big-bellied amendment of the Constitu tion Hies in the face of the constitutional pro vision (Article IU, section 1) that "when more than one amendment shall be sub mitted at the same time, they shall be so sub mitted as to enable the electors to vote on each amendment separately." Now this suf frage amendment contains four distinct pro positions. The radicals pronounce it only one, because all relate to suffrage some con tradicting a,nd others extend ng the elective franchise. In this amendment it is proposed to exteud the elective franchise to the negroes, aud at the same time to take it away from three classes of white persons, to wit, those who left the State to avoid being drafted into the Federal service; those who served in the Rebel army; and those who deserted the Federal ser vice during the war. The manner in whiuh this resolution was passed is a subject of remark in Ohio. It was first proposed in January, IBliti, by the representative from Loraine, an intensely radical region, and by the Senator from Ashtabula, only next to Lo raine in radicalism. As then proposed, it simply extended the right to vote to the negroes. H was then postponed till the adjourned session of 18u7, because it was feared, if passed in. the winter of lSu'ti, it would affect the Congressional -elections of that year. Iu the wiuterof 1SL'7 it came up again When put on its passage, it failed by a decided vote. Many radical members coming from the closely contested counties of the SUte yoted against it with the Detnoorats. These liituibcrs claimed that when they were candi dates they had pledged themselves to vote against Btriking the w ord w hito from the Con stitution. The subject was reconsidered, I ow ever, and the radical members commenced holding nightly caucuses to whip in the dis affected. In the meantime letters poured in Old Bye THE LARGEST AND BEST STOCK OE5 U E OLD RYE WH ICIM EO IN TI1E LAND IS NOW POSSESSED BY I1ENHY S.

Ihe books of tho Adjutaut-Oeneral how that of the Ohio troops, 27,178 soldiers eserted during the war. It is alleged, upon igh authority, that out of all of these only bout 3(100 are actual deserters; that of the other 24,000 nearly all were re-enlisted vete rans, who fought the Rebellion from the begin ning to its overthrow, and who, after the sur render of Lee and Johnston, left for their families without waiting a discharge, and did not return before the muster-out of their regi ments. Hence, they are put down as deserters, and are so denominated by the Secretary of War, who claims that he has no power to restore them. Another hardship is, that the amendment discriminates in favor of the rich against the poor. Duiing the last draft, many men who were too poor to procure substitutes secreted themselves to avoid the provost marshals. Those who had money bought a substitute. This amendment, then, in a few words, dis franchises about twenty-four thousand white soldiers in order to allow about seven thousand negroes to vote. A number of prominent radicals denounced it, and the Cincinnati Com mercial called on the radical State Convention to repudiate this bungling work of the Legis lature, but they did not. It is this amendment which has reoontly re ceived the go-by at the hands of the Republi can Committee. It is conceded by the Repub licans that it will be defeated If so, we cannot understand why the party which fathers it should not share its fate. Another local issue in Ohio, very near akin to a similar issue in New York, is the Metro politan Police bill. The radicals of Ohio have faithfully copied the New York policy omit ting none of its defects. The first bill pre sented was one applying to Cleveland only. The radicals feared that that city would be come Democratic. They wanted the police in their own hands; hence the lawgiving the appointment of four police commissioners to the Governor. The act was amended last winter, so as to include Columbus, Dayton, and Toledo in its provisions all Democratio cities while Cincinnati was excepted, be cause the Republicans have a majority there. The people of Columbus did not like it, and applied for and obtained an injunction- re straining these commissioners . from acting tinder the law.
