It must lie admitted that the Republican party in Congress 1ms, during the last couple of years, set some very bad precedents. But none that we know of quite justifies the plan provided for the Democratic party in the event of its return to power. This plan. o far as it pertains to the South ern States, is plain enough. It amounts te no more and no less than a summary overthrow of whatever has been or may be done under the Reconstruction acts, and the unconditional restoration of the old Governments to imme diate, unrestricted Congressiou tl repre sentation. An attempt is made to justify this procedure by a reference to the action of the late au i the present Congress. The effort, however, starts with misstatement. The remark of the "World that "the Republican party has edu cated the people to believe that Congress has the most absolute discretion iu deciding what 13 and ia not a valid State Government," is not sustained by any formal action of the party in or out of Congress, fc'ouin of its action doubtless looks that way, and some of its prominent members have put forward the pretension, and we may look for endeavors to embody it in legislation; but thus far no mea sure that has been passed, or that h is been approved by the party, sanctions it to the extent which the World assumes. On the contrary, it is certain that the scheme by which a few extreme men propose to force universal suffrage upon all the States, under tho pretense of guaranteeing to them repub lican government, would be voted down in any regular convention of the party, and will fail in Congress whenever it is brought for ward. But, It is said, Congress has already "exer cised buou discretion in upsetting the govern ments Of ten States;" wbenee it follows "that the next Congress will be just as free to re cognize new white, as this Congress is to re cognize new negro povernmeuts in tho South ern States." The inference is untenable be cause the cases are not analogous. The Uemooratio hypothesis is, of course, that the Rebellion, being the exercise of a reserved constitutional right, entailed no penalty; that its suppression ended the business; and that from that moment the white citizens resumed their old supremacy in the State governments and their old relations to the Union. This view, however, has been repudiated by the people now represented in the Government. It formed the issue between the Republican and Democratic parties, and was decided ad versely to the latter. The open aue3tian was. whether the work of reorganizing belonged to the President or to Congress, and this, too, was decided in favor of Congress. All the "upsetting that occurred in the promises had reference to Mr. Johnson's handiwork, which tad. but a Ecant resemblance to regular organi zation. Besides, whatever be the faults of the recon struction scheme and they are many and serious at least it proceeds on the only prin ciple which underlies popular government. The governments upset were irregular organi zations, making small pretense to legitimacy in their origin or none to universal or impartial representation of the people concerned. While, then, Congress has exercised its authority call it unconstitutional if you will this, at any rate, may be urged in its behalf that it inter fered in the interest of the whole people, white and black; whereas the "discretion" which the Democrats propose to exercise, would be in favor of tho whites only at the exp -nse of black disfranchisement. The distinction is material. For, though certain classes of whites are now disfranchised, they are so small a fraotion of the entire body that they do not invalidate the general argument. If the Southern governments be negro governments, therefore let ns not forget that the exclusion of the whites is, as a rule, self imposed. They are at liberty to participate in the govern ments on a basis of equality. They demand supremacy based on color, and tho bastard Democracy of the World indorses their claim. The same journal adheres to its revolution ary method of overcoming the Rep iblioan majority in the Senate. On the assumption that the Democrats will elect the next Presi dent and a majority of the next House, it sug gests that the Senators whom the Southern whites may send to Washington Khali unite with the Northern Democratic Senators, and that the Senate thus composed shall be recog nized by the President and the House. This Step, the World contends, "is defensible on perfectly solid grounds," but our contempo rary prudently abstains from stating them. Since each Chamber has the sole right to deter mine the eligibility of its own members, how does the World propose to obtain the admis sion of Southern Senators, whom the majority of the existing Senate will refuse to acknow ledge f The whole proceeding would be revo lutionary. In the first place, the elections by whites alono, in the Southern States, would be in eil'ect an insurrectionary movement; and the forcible intrusion of Senators, elected in pursuance of insurrection, to occupy seats already regularly filled, would be of the same charact-r.. At every stage the affair would be revolutionary. We have little fear that mat ters will reach this point. But the fact that it is deliberately contemplated as a part of the Democratic policy, shows the difficulties and dangers that would attend the triumph of that party. General Grant Amon r trie Politician A Little Krleudly Advice. From the N. Y. Herald. General Grant Btands in the way of several nice little sohemes for the Presidential succes sion in both the Republican and Democratic camps. He stands in the way of the ralical Chase faction, and they are torely distressed about it. They say ho is no statesman, and notmuob. of a general, though he did bottu np Ben Butler, and they are shocked at the bare idea of such a man as Grant the Republican candidate, especially a3 they liave no assurance that he is perfectly sound On the radioal creed. He is too reticent, vy half. If he would only declare his opinions on the creat issues of ttie day, he could settle 11 these doubts at once. Why don't he spnak out f Shall the Republican party bow down before him, cap in hand, and t;.ko him at a venture T Are principles to go iur nomiug r Such passing remarks as these t.-ebly iu licat.i the sore distress of the Chase radicals iu regard to (i'-neral tJratit. The Democratic pipulayei'B and pumpers Pendleton men ami fcoviuour men, are eq'iaily perplexed v. iih the same obatacl', Tm-ro !.- Grant. What are we to do with Luu I If we could only get bim fnlly committed to the radicals or against the radicals we miht manage him, tbey pay. Why don't he speak out t And so radioal and Copperhead mana gers peem equally determined, with all his unioking, to pmoke him out. Forney comes put with a flaming radical manifesto, declaring that General Giant is sound as a roach, and safe; that his fast friend Klihu Wahbnrue says so (huzzah t) and that settles the ques tion. Straightway Montgomery Blair hurries over to see Genpral Grant sees him, talks to him, tries to pump him aud comes away with the report that what Forney says is all stuff. Forney retorts, in high dudgeon, that Bbiir's report is all gas, green cheese, and moonshine; and so it goes. "Old Ben Wade" says that when he alternated to sound Geueral Grant on politics he talked horse, and nothing but horse; that ho lit a fresh cigar aud kept on taking horse; and so it Bourns that none of these politicians are sharp enough to catch him or to mioke him out. All right, General, all right. Stick to it. You have them on the hip; hold theiu there. The same rule of keeping your own counsels till ready for the battle will apply as well to political ns to military operations. Remember that in 1844 the anti-Van Buren Democrats smoked out Van Buren in a letter on the Texas question, which killed him off in the noml l.ating Baltimore party convention; that Henry Clay, in 1S4-1, in consequence of a little Ala bama letter on Texas during the campaign, lost tho vote of Now York, and so lost the White House; that Old Zack Taylor, in per i mptotily and peit-istently refusing to make sprrcbes, holt conversations, or write httcis on the issues of the cam 1 aipu in lf-lS, was most triumphantly elected; that thirteen Deuioeratiu' candidates, who were smoked out in 1S.'2 by a certa'n Major Donaldson, on tho leading questions of that day, in advance, were all shelved at Bal tinioie, and that poor l'ierce, who was not t aught by Donaldson, got the prize, lie was like the fox in the lion's den. lie had too bad a cold to smell anything, and so he came off the winner. Old Buck pretty much the same. Let General Grant remember these things, and remember also that General Scott, in lSu2, in answering all questions from all quarters, about everybody and everything, iu writing letters and making speeches, made the most awul botch of it, and was defeated worse than Peru bei ton at Vlcksburg, or Bragg at Chatta nooga, or Lee at Petersburg and on tho run to Appomattox Court lloune. As for the Blair family, Geueral the old Blair aud all tho young Blairs give them a wide margin. Fremont cau tell you all about the Blairs. They are Paul Prys, they are Maiplots, they are troublesome customers. In lact, they are like the daughters of the hoise-leech : their cry is "Give, give ;" they are cadaverous, regular bloodsuckers, and they never have euough. Thurlow Weed is a queer iish of the same species, that get full of oil by suction iUt fellows, brown on the back, white bellies, and always stir ring up the mud. "Honest Old Abe" tiied the Blairs one of them in his Cabinet and the rest among the cooks in the kitchen ; but with all the gentleness and patience of Lincoln, he at last had to say to the Cabinet Blair, "Your time has come;" and thus relieved of the tribe, great was the joy of "Old Abe." As for Forney, he is a regular horgelly, though pronounced by Andy Johnson a "dead duck," and when he comes buzzing about your flank switch him oil', General, switch him off. This is the way to tlx them. When any of these radical or Copperhead pumpers come, to pump you, General, talk horse to them, as you talked him to "Old Ben Wade." Tell tuem of your black charger at Shiioh, and how he would Cc mpare.with General Taylor's "Old Whitey." 1V11 them how Sheridan's horses went into the work at the Five Forks, and what line trotters they have on the Eighth avenue, New York, and in the Jerome l'ark, and what splendid drives they have for a fast team on the plains of Long Branch; what fine driving you saw there among the ladies, "equal to two-forty on aiilank roa i." Tell them that the Jersey Lorses, well in hand, "though rum uns to look at, are good uns to go." Tell them all the line points of the famous stallion of John Minor Botts, and how it is that Mr. Johnson don't like niggers, dogs, or horses, but doats on a good milch cow. Talk to them on horses as a good disciple ot tne stout oia King uauinrinus will talk on lager beer, and these inquisitive politicians will get out. The country is 6atistiea, uenerai, witu your acts and vour record, and. so you may talk horse to these scurvy politicians till the day alter the Presidential election. The Alabmma Convention, Fi oin the X. Y. Tribune. The official proceedings of the first two days of the Constitutional Convention of Alabama have come to hand. We have examined them with some care in view of the persistent efforts of the aristocratio and ex-Rebel papers to bring this Convention and all of its class into ridi cule. It must be remembered that the Repub lican party at the South corresponds in social position to the Democratic party at the North. Here the great "unwashed" party has never been ashamed of the fact that most of the ignorance, depravity, aud dirt to be found at the North votes the Democratic ticket, it has professed to be proud of its devotion to the inU rests of political rights of the poor aud the cnoiant; and so lar as it has tietu sincere in this piiuciple we honor the party lor it, aud see therein a reason for its former great suc cess and ascendancy. But now that the boot is on the other leg, now that the working millions of the S mill et'tud identified with a party that has shown itself as demociatio towaids them as the old Democratic party at the North ever was to wards the foreign and pauper vote, aud, in consequence, are voting the Republican ticket, d.es it behoove the piofessed organs of the poor of the Morth to turn up their noses be cause the poor of the South are meeting in convention and framing constitutions t Can a party that sends to the benate or the United States men who, like Saulsbury, Patter son, and the late MoDougall, have olton been too drunk to vote except as they were told, rightfully Mit er if a convention of the labor ing classes of a State in which Democracy has always reigned supreme shows some mem bers but little acquainted with parliamentary usage? But, in fact, the Alabama Convention has done nothing as yet that does not characterize it as eminently worthy to represent the peo;ld ol Alabama, and lit in intelligence to represent any tiut n iS ijjdou. The Convention ould have betm more truly representative of "' hole people of tho State if the conserva tive party liaa vottd, and elected about three mis ot u,e d,.!,.f,au-, ns they might have t! ,. n i, tum '''' what hind of a Conven tion the.

W say they might, " though the pro-slavery party sent to Congress but fesr men remarkable for either gentlemanly in stincts or legislative talents. If brow-beati'i and bullying, gutta-percha canes, bowif knives, and tobacco Juice are qualifications to sit in a legislative body, the Convention no v sitt'ng for Alabama may be found lacking. If ardent devotion to slavery and the Rebellion be qualifications for a reconstruction conven tion, then the State of Alabama is in fearful peril from the machiuatious of the holy now in session, for it contains noue but loyal and thoroughly auti-slavery men. Already ordinances have been intro riu ed annulling the laws passed under Reh l sway, whereby the money of the widows and oiphsus of Alabama was emptied into tin bottomless treasury of the Confederate Mates, and never again heard from. It is this mea sure which the New York Thrnld styles "pur suing private feuds iu public law." The state ment that the Convention has even listeiie 1 1, still less endorsed or adopted any measure of proscription or disfranchiseraeut, is untrue. On the contrary, on the second day the Con vet.tion adopted a resolution memorializing Corgress "to remove all political disabilities of tboso citizens of Alabama who have aided in the reconstruction of the State on the piau propostd by Congress." As its first step has been against pioscription, we have the right to believe it w ill go as far in its magnanimity ns it can without surrendering the State to Rebels, disfranchising its own constituency, and overturning its own work. We hope and believe the Convention will endeavor fairly to repiesent the rights aud interests of the whole people of Alabama. Venerable Vivacity. From the K. Y. Tribune. We waited with some natural curiosity for the Te Dcum which we knew would be played upon the President's organ, with all the stops out and all the pedals in full activiiy, in honor of the late elections; but we were not pre pared to find this superannuated old sheet, with supernatural friskiness, preluding its hymn with nine lines from Childe Harold's Pilgrimage. Musical disciplinarians might object to jigs ou an organ; but au elation like that of the National Intelligencer is not to be restrained by the laws of science. It seems, we confess, a little inhuman to investigate critically the rationale of this magnificent jocundity. The happiness of a flunkey may he stimulated by causes which hardly affect the feelings of human beings of a higher grade; and we are the more certain of this because when we come to inquire what there is, for instance, in the Massachusetts election which should rejoice the soul of the organ, as an organ, we find ourselves per plexed in the extreme. Governor Bullock, the radical cagdidate for Governor, is reelected by a majority of over 2'J,000. Young Mr. A dams, the Johnsonian candidate for Governor, is elected to the House of Representatives of 'ho State 1 There is no pretense that there is not a large majority of Republicans returned to both branches of the Legislature. In view of this result, the Intel! iyencer cries .-out that radicalism is near its end. However this niny be, it is clear enough that a Johnson party in Massachusetts is nowhere near its beginning. What, pray, has the question of rum or no rum in Massachusetts to do with "My Policy" in Washington f It has nothing to do, wo may be sure, even with his Excellency's private de canteis. They will be, filled and they will be emptied without the slightest reference to MatHachusetta laws, h'o fur as there is any expression of opinion in regard to his admin istration in this fctate, it is most emphatically against him. Iis man is decidedly defeated; the other man is just as decidedly elected; and if the President anticipates any aid or comfort, or expression of approbation from the Legisla ture just chosen, he may make up his mind to be lnchttully disappointed, lhs happiness. therefore, however great, cau hardly be con sidered as rational. This is a consideration which continually suggests itself as we ruu the eye over the Intelliyvnrer's exuberant para graphs, it claims the credit ot victories which bear no relation whatever to the Adininis tiation. Even here in New York, it would be difficult to find a single Democrat who would allow that, in contending for success, be has been working for the President. When A. J. rushes in uninvited and unwel ccnie, to participate in . the Democratic fes tivities, nobody bids Jiim welcome nobody takes him cordially by the hand, and says: "This all your doing, dear Andy!" Nobody whispers that he must be the Democratio can didate for the Presidency; nobody cares a straw either for his happiness or his misery. Ho will find ere long that the strength of the paity to whose skirts, with pitiable, upturned lace, he is clinging, is simply his own weak mss. The greater its majorities, the less likely s he to leceive its support. The more inde pendent it may be, the more likely it is to look upon him with good-natured contempt. In an emergency it might need him; in pros perity it will regard him simply as a bothera tion and a nuisance, lie may think differently now, but timo will show that we are right. It is veiy easy for the organ to say that the De mocratic majority is "wondrous strong," "Yet lovely In ltd strength, M In tUo light Ct Hunik ee hi Wunaiu.'' If that "dark eye" shall be found amorously gliug the beloved Andy in 1808, it will be because the brains above it have become piti ully bofteiied. I lie Treury Department and the VVlilUy 'lax, Mom theN. Y. World. The most gigantic and methodized system of fiaud by which rapaiity was ever enriched at Mie expense of a nation's revenue, has been 'or many months in successful operation in bis country, to the disgrace of. the important iepaitment of which Mr. McCullouh is the ilgure-head. Who is the pilot, or whether it irilts without any, are mysteries not yet peue lated by the public. Acoording to the esti ,i,tes of leading Republican journals, from one t . tv o hundred million dollars a year are lost bv unrestrained frauds. The proofs of their tuevaleiu e have long been notorious, although he public may have little precise kuowledge of their methods. The fact that the average price of whisky has long been less than the tax, proves that there can be no honest distil iitiou. Who beliwves that any manufacturer . ontiuues a business wherein, besides his other expenses, he phvs two dollars a gallon to the Government, and sells the product ut one dol 1 u i and ninety cents 1 Mr. McCiillnch recognized the existence ot i em ti'Miuls, and the necessity of repre.-isiii tleiu wht n, without auy warrant of law or o 'lor of authority, be constituted the board in this city which has proved as iuellioieut as hiimelf. We have no intention of atta king the J.onefty of that board uutil wo are more lully in possession of the facts; but even now we could put to its oil) iers some embarrassing questions. We exjecV- aoou to-ouatraet catechism for these hopeful neophytes in the art of protecting the reTenup, and we shall not be surprised if the shrinking modesty of th catechumens interferes with the olearuess and alacrity of their answers, and prevents a. very satisfactory exhibition of their proficiency. We expect, moreover, to show, by carefully tabulated returns, that the amount of- the whisky tax collected under their rtgimr instead of being greater, as has been claimed,' is considerably less than before. We postpone our cateohism for tho sake of asking a question, which the public is as well qualified to put without any minute know ledge of facts as we are with. Why did not this pet Board anticipate Collector Bailey in the wholesale seizures by which he has staitled, amazed the country? Mr. I'.ailey was appointed to collect the revenue in one of the districts of this city; the Board to watch over the interests of the revenue in all the di-driets of the metropolis and the neighbor ing cities. How does It happen that the lio.ird Las, from first to last, exhibited nothing but p'ddling inefficiency, while this alert individual, though burdened w ith more local duties than any other collector in the United States, makes Feizures on so gigantio a scale that his opera tions cover the whole country from Boston to St. Lotus 7 It is not our purpose to discuss at present the merits of Collector Bailey. His motives are ot no public consequence. It Is all the same, as far ad the efficiency of Secre tary McCulloch and his Revenue Boaid are con cerned, w hetber Mi. Bailey is public-spirited or merely officious; whether he is seekiug an honorable notoriety or merely his share of forb ited property. Time, which tries all things, will also test him; aud if he goes through as he has begun without flinching, he will have rendered an important public service. The point to which we are concerned to call attention is the demonstrated imbecility of the Tieasury Department, and its unauthorized machinery for the detection aud prevention of liauds. If it be said that the whisky knaves a) e so covert and cunning that their operations cannot be tracked, the public will at once ask bow then it has happened that within a short time a single individual has been able to unravel so extensive a web t If one collector, with the business of perhaps the heaviest district on his hands, can detect and cleaa out the whisky rogues, not only of his own, but half the important districts of the country, that faet not only exposes the im becility of the Revenue Board, but explodes and puts to shame .the pretense that the revenue service needed to be supplemented by any such extra-legal resort. If one effioieut collector is capable of ferreting out theso frauds, not only in his own district, but in dozeLS of others, what but bad appointments or want of vigor in the Department should prevent the whole body of collectors from dea'ing decisively with the whole magnitude of the evil? What one man has doue is surely not beyond the competence of a well organized and vigorously superintended reve nue service; and whatever credit his achieve ments may be thought to reflect on himself, they certainly reflect greater disgrace on the Department which is distanced and eclipsed by one of its local officers. The thief duty of the Secretary of the Trea sury is to protect the revenues of the Govern ment; and when he permits them to slip through his fingers into the pockets of dis honest distillers who outwit and circumvent bim at the rate of a hundred millions a year, he demonstrates his total unfitness for his position. Of course, ho can liud exonses by magnifying obstacles; it is Uih peculiar pro vince of feebleness to discover apologies as it is of vigor aud capacity to accomplish results in spUe of them. What Las Mr. McCulloch done to protect the revenue against the whisky frauds f What measure has he initiated lor discomntiug the knaves who are diverting the most fruitful source of internal revenue from the Trea sury to their private bank accounts ? Done ! He has done nothing, and left undone every thing a vigilant officer ought to do. And to screen his debility, he has overstepped the law by creating a revenue board as shiftless and helpless as himself; a board which for a year or more has met in a room somewhere in Cedar street, and dawdled over we know not what insignificant details, while every distil lery in the city, and every bonded warehouse, was a focus of undetected frauds. And while this dawdling over small oozing leaks is enact ing with the revenue streaming out of a thou sand bung-holes, the Secretary of the Trea sury is a helpless spectator, neither abolishing the board for its inefficiency, nor starting any other machinery for abating the frauds which have grown up under his administration to such prodigious, such astounding proportions. We have stood by Mr. McCulloch as far and as long as it was in our power. We must now tell him, in all honest frankness, that he does not possess the confidence of this commercial metropolis, and that the enormity of the frauds w hich have lately been exposed without any agency of his, must cost him the respect of the whole country. The people feel that i hey have had enough of well meaning incom petence, and as Mr. McCulloch makes a prac tical confession of his incapacity to protect the revenue, it is time he retired and gave place to nn officer o. more energy and ability.
