"Tbe black man Ih treated as an lxbmaelite or Pariah In the North, where he la absolutely powerless, and where hia combined race cannot carry a alrgle Congressional District. Chicago .puts a brand upon his brow like that of Cain." The Tribune has never, during ita twenty seven years' existence, held or proclaimed any other basis of government than that of the equal rights of all men. We fought for that piinciple as heartily in 184(1, when we polled but e;),UUU votes lor it in uis oiaie, as m iou, when we more than doubled that number; and as heartily as we do now, when it is the cher ished oreed of at least 300,000 of our New York fellow-oitizens. Yet we do not quite see by what right New York or Massachusetts shall prescribe the conditions of suffrage iu Illinois; though we see very clearly how and why the people of the loyal States should insist, in resto ring Rebel States to self government, that the loyal people of ttiote States should have a voice in their government henceforth, and not be put under the feet of their Kebel ex-masters. We may be oonvincd, by the coarse of events, that the nation has power and right to decree equal rights to citizens in every State; and we deeply regret that the Federal Constitution did not expressly so prescribe. As yet, how ever, we rest on the Chicago platform, as above quoted. Yet can there be a secoud liar so brazen as to assert that we thereby "de clare the colored man of the North unfit to enjoy the elective franchise," and "put a brand on his brow lik that of Cain V The Copperheads. from the N. Y. Timet. It is quite evident that the Democratic party requires the discipline of another great defeat to bring it to its senses. The Copper head element is rampaut, insolent, aud defiant. Often overthrown, frequently cowed, some times apparently ready to give up the ghost, it yet persists in forcing itself to the fore ground at every opportunity, and is always ready to attempt to beize the reins and manage the party for its owu behoof. Nothing could more strikingly display the desperate nature of the faction than its conduct at the present Democratic Convention. If the Copperheads were capable of being taught, they would have learned wisdom from the events of the last eight years. They would hve learned that the vat majority of the American people are utterly aud unalterably opposed to their ptinciples, their policy, their schemes, their past course, their present pre tensions, and their future supremacy. They would have discovered the impossibility of now effecting the object of their desires; they would have found out the futility of opposing the national will and the national destiny. But it seems these Copperheads have learned nothing at all. They come along here with all their old airs and assumptions. They claim tbe right to rule the Democratic party; and the Democratic) party lacks the courage and the spirit to resent their pretensions, and spurn their presence. Nothing, therefore, re mains for the Democratic party but another great defeat. The Republicans are well pre pared to administer it. The people will not tolerate the supremacy of this old Copperhead faction. As they have heretofore overthrown it whenever it has shown itself, so they must again overthrow it, and with that overthrow crush ont its existence. After such an expe rience, one may suppose that even the Demo cracy will learn something. Cauglil iu the Manner. From the IVibune. The World Is a loud-mouthed oracle of that school of political philosophy which affliun that "The world is governed too much," rather than too badly, aud holds that what ever goes beyond keeping men from breaking eaoh other's heads and picking each other's pockets is outside of the proper functions of tbe State. Yet, see how it abjures and tram ples on its own doctrine in the following: "A Fkmai.k Slavic Thadk. There seems to be no doubt Iba', au Infamous trtttlc, which has for years beeu can led on between Loudon and tbe great towns of Northern Ueruiuuy, has been opened bi-tweev those tow us aud New Yoik. Tbe North tiermau Journals (and not tbe North German Journals only) come to ui with adverliHemeuls dated In Crosby, Mercer and other notorious streets of thisclty, In whlcli the advertisers In vile well-educated and rne able young Ueinv-tn ladles of good family, to come out io Anie'l'M us governesses.' Aeuoies In Hamburg- aud Kiomnj. are establlsbod to provide the victims ol this i melons trade with tbe means of ri tichlLin New York, and harpies, ready at New York wharves upon ttielr arrival, aoon put Itiem bey on I tbe reacb of numan help.

Tbe Coin misKloneiH ol Emigration aud trie municipal authorities ox both sides of tbe Atlantic should lone no time In taking active and efficient s'eps for putting a stop to ibis laooncelvubly horrible form of the slave trade." We need hardly say that the Tribune heartily assents to the World's propositions. We only insist that the same protection be extended to Americans that tUt World solicits for Germans. "This atrocious trade" has long been flourishing here, aud will be so long as houses of infamous resort are allowed to exist. livery brothel is a perpetual conspi racy against the purity aud happiness of every unprotected young wotmu in the coun try. "Harpies" are not merely "ready" to clutch friendless girls at the wharves; they eeize those who come in frim the country; and they have emissaries and scouts looking in every direction for those who may be made their victims. So long as the traffi ) in female rain is tolerated and gainful, so long will Ameiioan girls be day by day lured into its - tawdry saloons by every species of deception and fraud to siuk thence into lower, though not fouler, depths of pollution and infamy. There can be no sa'ety for unprotected inno cence until an aroused and chastened public sentiment Bhall indigna-tly, resistlessly de mand the utter extermination of houses of ill fame. So with regard to gambling. The blackleg is as palpably, flagrantly a publio enemy as the bawd. He robi our young men of their money, their honesty, their self reppwt; min ing Luudredj" every yaar, aad thus atojiil recruiting the armies of Satan. Probably, a I fall ball oi tne villains 01 oar cur those who live by rasoality and alory in it took their first steps on their downward road in making their way to a gambling-house. We know it is said Man's perverted passions will have gratification. If that plea is good for anything, it avails the advertisers con demned by the World as much as others. Bat theie is no force in it. It is not human frailty that we war upon, but the cold-blooded vil lainy that takes advantage of that frailty in pursuit of sordid gain. Men will steal and forge. Yet we do not tolerate seminaries for perfecting neophytes in forgery and theft. Gambling and lewdness might not be eradi cated by the sternest legal repression, but they would be reduced to their lowest dimensions. If our laws simply confiscated the premises perverted, with their owner's privity, to the vile uses of the blackleg or the lib-rtiu, there would be a ppeedy cessation of such advertis ing as the World so preperly deprecates. Vice would grovel in caverns aud cower in rags, instead of rioting in palaces aud flaunting ia gorgeous apparel. And there will yet, we trust, be matured and developed a publio f entiment that will demand and secure sterner laws than we now have, and public prosecu tors quite other than A. Oakey ilall. Andy Johnson's Fare well Addrexs. From the If. Y. Herald. Messrs. F. W. Coggill, William II. Appleton, and a half dozen other persons having written a letter to President Johnson asking the privi lege of presenting his name "to the Demo cratic Convention as n candidate for the ot&oe of President of the United States," he ha3 in timated that "IJarkls is willin'," that is, "if deemed desirable for tbe preservation and unity of the conservative interests of the country." But he wants "a call so general and unequivocal" that it will amount to an endorsement of his course by the people, aud he thinks "that in the present temper el par ties" no such endorsement can be reasonably expected. Mr. Johnson then proceeds to a philosophi cal review of the present political condition of things, which gives to his historical letter the character somewhat of a farewell address after the fashion of George Washington aud Andrew Jackson. A pretty good address it is, too; and it ccmes to the windward within hailing distance of the Democratic platform. Among other things which he has vainly tried to do against a two-thirds vote of each house of CoDgress, he mentions his efforts to check ex travagant expenditures and to lighten the bur dens ot taxation. And all this time he has been like John Tyler, or like Rome, "when Ca-sar had a party, and l'ompey and Crassus each had a party, and the com monwealth had none." But while Mr. Johnson has had to fight a radical Con gress since the close of the war, and has had to bear and suffer many things in silence for the sake of the people, he says, "I cannot complain if the people have not been able to make my cause thoroughly their own." But until the people wake up to the extravagant, reckless, and oppressive partisan schemes of Congress, "the nation will have to be content with delusive hopes and promises of better times." That is as true as Gospel. Mr. John eon's views upon this important matter are seasonable and well put. The people must wake up, er they aie gone. L'ke a true phi loEopher, while he is not very sanguine of the immediate approach of the milleuium, "in the present temper of parties," aud while he is "in the bauds of the people (including this Democratic Convention) aud at their disposal," he thinks, in any event, he can look calmly on tbe present course of events, and "patiently await the verdict of the future." So he can, and so, we hope, he will. He thinks that Old Thad. fctevensandBen Butler and the radicals generally, in the late impeachment, "have done the worst that factiou can do for the present;" from which it is evident that "honest Andy" is not much frightened by these new impeachment resolutions. Finally, he expresses the hope to the Democracy that in the selection of their candidate "the publio good and leading and well-defined principles will not be sacrificed to the mere purpose of party ascendancy." In a modest way this is an appeal against Pendleton aud any man of that type, and a strong hint in favor of some such constitutional conservative as Johnson, Chase, Doolittle, or Dixon. In a word, while this letter of Mr. Johnson's is a dignified bid for the Democratic nomina tion it is at the same time a warning to the Democratic Convention, and in reading it we are reminded of another philosopher's beauti ful and consoling words "blessed is he who don't expect anything, for he shall not be dis appointed." The British Neutrality Laws. From the If. Y. Time. In its many columns of comment upon the report of the Commissioners on the Neutrality Laws, the London Times has made no more incisive and vital thrust into the main ques tion than by its remarks upon the existing distinction between ships and contraband of war. Indeed, its observation upon that point touches one of the main springs of the pending international controversy. "There ia this difference, " said the Tiuu-s, "between ships and other warlike stores, that the latter must be taken to some place in the possession of the belligerent, and thence directed against his adversary, while the ship may never go near the belligerent's territory at all." That is very true, and that is precisely one of the reasons why Auieiica complained of the insuf ficiency of the present theories of tho inter national law on this topic, for the preservation of commerce from the raids ot cruisers fitted out in neutral ports. Had the Alabama, for example, been com pelled to run the risk of the blockade which we establibhed, had she been forced to euter a Southern port in order to acquire bellige rent rights or the status of a C mtederate ship, the whole question now pending between us and Kuglaud would be essentially changed. Had she attempted to run the blockade as an unwarlike ship and succeeded, aud then again put out, armed, equipped aud manned as a ship-of-war, doubtless we should have looked on her depredations iu a different light. On the other hand, had she failed and been cap tured, that would have been the end of the story. In other wordi, what made the case of the ship more exasperating thau the case of powder, shot, or other munitions of war, was this that these latter were ordinarily run through the blockade before they could be come Confederate property, or could be used against us; but the Alabama, by virtue of the liiitieh recognition which she obtained as a belligerent ship, did not need to run the blockade. She hoisted Confederate colors without having seen a Confederate port; and the English assisted her pretensions by taking no steps to overhaul her and bring her into their wustody. The London Times well says that under the present principle, Theodore himself might have had a score of armed vessels of French, or American build on the sea. Indeed, the debate in our Senates on Mr. Chandler's famous Abyssinian revolution will illustrate this point. It was then suggested, and the. American preps took up the hint wi'h great alacrity, that the "reouitlou" of Aysbiu! would justify Theodore in subsidizing the piratical craft of Amertoan adventurers, wio, without ever eoinir within 0000 miles of Theo dore's domain, would prey upon British com merce. And surely they might fly the Abyssinian flag with as much propriety as the Alabama did the Confederate, though the absurdity of their forming a part of the "Abt sslnian nary" would b very apparent. Tristram onanay s latner ana unole had a famous debate on the question whether Bohe mia could have had a seaport. The former thought, with a thorough belief in Omnipo tence, that it could, if God willed. "I think not," gravely replies my uncle Toby. The Confederacy, under the English view, had a navy wben it had not a port. Towards the elope of the war, when every single harbor was in tbe possession of our troops, the Eaglish- buill corsairs were sallying from foreigu coal- ine stations and ravaging our oomtnenie. Tbe Alabama, from the day she was launched tili Wlnslow blew her out of water, never saw a Confederate port. "It is evident," says the Times, "that the line of prohibition must be drawn by the neutral btate so as to include ships," and we quite agree with that senti ment. That was the chief aim, indeed, of the labors or the late commission. Senator Kamsey's Mistakes. From the World. The bill introduced into the Senate by Mr. Ramsey, of Minnesota, to regulate our traie with Kanada, in most respects the satin as that of Mr. Beaman's, is liable to the objection as to the monopoly it would confer on the route to Canada via Portland, aud in some other particulars. But it has the additional and praiseworthy characteristic of embodying a held and comprehensive attempt to extend reciprocity to goods manufactured in each country from tbe materials produced in it, subject in each case to a duty of five per cent. Of course there would be infinite frauds in carrying this plan into practice. None could tell whether cloth of certain kinds was made from Canadian or other wool, and so on of many other manufactures, so that we should be adopting to a considerable erctent a five per cent, tariff on the manufactures not only of Canada, but of the world. Oaths might be exacted, but custom-house oaths of this kind made in foreigu countries are not much more ellicacious than those of radical Senators and Representatives at Washington to support the Constitution of the United Sta'es. Besides, a mere duty of five per cent, would by no means counterbalance tbe superior ad vantages of Canada for niauufacturiug, con ferred upon her by our large debt and the monstrous and ill-adjusted method of pro viding for it. Iu many of those articles of which Canada produces the raw material, such as Mr. Ramsey proposes toatmitata duty of five per cent., her people would have an item of five per cent, advantage to begin with, and in iron for machinery, rails, loco' motives and ships or boats for transit on every point as to general cheapness Canada would have enormous advantages. But in other respects Mr. Ramsey's bill indicates very little reflection. For instance, according to the bill, whisky made from cheap Canadian grain might be admitted at a duty of five per cent, bo long as the bill remained in force we fcbould have no power to prevent this, and should be at the mercy ot the CiUMians, who could thus cut us off from what ought to be an important and proper source of our excise revenue. Mr. Ramsey specifically adds agricultural implements to the list of articles to be ad mitted at five per cent. A few j'ears ago we exported them on a very large scale to Canada; but the Canadian tariff transferred the manu facture to the northern side of the frontier. Wood and iron are the materials used. The Canadians have wood more than five per cent, cheaper thau our oppressively taxed people, and have iron yet cheaper by many times over, consequently, if iur. Kamsey s system were likely to be permanent, it would transfer the manufacture of agricultural implements from this to the other side. Ploughs are agri cultural implements, and iron ploughs are no exception to the plain rule. Nor are iron steam-ploughs, with all their machinery, to be reasonably excepted. But it is easy to see that, with iron free of duty, tbe Canadians could completely drive our people out of the market in our own country. Their advantages would be quite as great in making iron ships. We name this to show how diffioult it is to make any miuor change in our very oomplex system without making far wider derangements than are at hrst ob vious. Scarcely anything is better entitled to be free of dutv than agricultural implements, but the same might be said of ships, railroad iron, tools, etc., etc. What is needed is to give our manufacturers a fair chance of making good articles at low prices, as well as to insist on fair competition. It is unjust to subject them to competition when they are fettered by high prices on all that enters into production to tie them down and then insist on their running a race where they furnish heavy stakes. All these difficulties are the result of prefer ring btute force to statesmanlike prudence and skill. We became wedded in much haste to the idea that a national debt is a national blessing. The bonds are indissoluble, aud we are now at the beginning of tbe same long buniness wherein we shall have ample time to repent. Xore Iiohliery TrcpoM'd. From the AT. Y. Keening J-u.it. Iron now costs, by reason of the high tariff, twice as much as it ought. Congress, to favor a finall and already wealthy class, ol winch Mr. Tbaddeus Stevens is only one of the repre sentatives, has so arranged taxation as to double the price of iron, one of the chief neces saries of lite, to the worktugmeu of the coun try. Cheap iron Is as necessary to tho com fort of the farmers and'meouaincs of the coun try as cheap bread. Double the price of iron. and you double the price of ploughs, mowing machines, hoes, harrows, hammers, plaues, axes, nails; you largely increase the cost of every barn, stable, shed, aud farm-house; you diminish the meaus of every mau who works with his hands, of every farmer, me chanic, and laboring man in the land, ex cept the few who are engaged in the produc tion of iron. To double the price of iron, then, is to In flict distress upon the whole country; to make every workinguiau's family poorer. Yet this is what the tariff men in Congress have done, and they are not even satisfied with this They now propose to increase still more the price of this necessary of life. Mr. Moorhead, of Pennsylvania, a wealthy iron master, is with febaineiess eurontery pushing a tanu bill, whose principal object is largely to increase the already onerous and wicked duties on iron, and thus give the few wealthy American iron masters the power to increase still more the price of this necessary of life to the millions of farmers ana woiKingmen who must use U ia its various forms. The Tribune urges Republican members to hasten back to Washington to help to pass this increased tariff. Does this mean that the Republican party is to have this iniquitous measure fathered upon it ? Are the Republi can leaders willing to go into the Presidential canvara as the authors or supporters of a meaEurs which bitterly wrongs every work legman In the oountry, merely to put more money into the pockets of a few rich mo nop -lists ? It is amazing to see the folly of souii Re publican politicians, who permit their part.,' to be used in this and other ways, by school ing and grasping monopolists, to wring tnon-y irom tbe impoverished and tax burieun l people. Congress apparently means to a Monro without completing the recouslrnctiou ot th States, that important measure which, for the sake of the Republican party's future, a well as for the country's pood, ought to bs seulei and put out of tbe way before the Presidential election, lmt it would seem that, with all the pressureof important nufluished busiue-is, it will make time to hurry through this inju rious tarill bill. We warn the Republican leader that thy cannot go before the country this fall bearing the responsibility of such a lull. They ou- not face the American people if they abet such a robbery. 1 bey will be denounced every where as the allies of a small baud of greedy and unscrupulous monopolists; and it will not do to say that the Democrats are just as bad. If this bill is passed, it must be by Republican votes; the Republicans alone can prevent its passage; aud they will be extremely unwise if they do not. It is not safe for them to trust in this can vass, as they have in several before, to the folly of the Democrats. The Democrats, whomever they nominate, will make a vigo rous canvass; they will expose all the sins of omission and commission, of the Repub lican majority in Congress; and it is mvl ness in the Republicans to put this last and deadly weapon iuto the hands of their oppo nents. Where Uesls the Responsibility'! From the N. Y. Commercial AUvertistr, 'I thank God that tbe strife ot arms has censed, and that once more In the great cou- venutdisol our parly we oau call ibrougti tne wbole roll of Hlatee, and find men to aus.vcr to each," Seymour's Speech. Governor Seymour thanks God that all of the States are once more represented in a Na tional Convention. But to whom is this grati fying result due f is it the Democratic party which in 1804 declared in the Chicago Con vention, over which this same Governor Sey mour presided, that the war was "a failure," aud should be stopped The country was at that time enshrouded in gloom, and the Rebel prospects were brightening. Ihen it was that the Democratic party solemnly declared that no fuither efforts should be made to overcome them. In so many words it affirmed that the prosecution of the war had been of no avail, aud that the time had come to let the insur gents go in peace and establish a separate Government ot their own. The great and patriotic Republican organ ization, however, which had conducts 1 the war to that point, never thought of hesitating or faltering. On the contrary, it pushed for ward with renewed zeal and determination, and as a result Wade Hampton, William Pres ton, Napoleon tor rest, C. C Langdon, aud other Southern politicians are gathered to-day in the city ot JNew lork to nominate a candi date for the whole United States, instead of assembling at Richmond, Charleston, or Mont gomery to designate Jefferson Davis, Rcbert E. Lee, or John C. Breckinridge as President of a Southern Confederacy. To the Republican party, and that party alone, is due the fact that the Tammany Convention to day embraces delegates from below Mason and Dixon's line. Governor Seymour's speech, which is sur charged with passion and anger as no other address of his ever was, dwells much on the vast debt, depreciated currency, and Imavy taxes of the country. But the party which he to-day represents brought all of these ills upon the country. When the Southern States threatened to secede if Abraham Lincoln was chosen President, the Democratic party of the North encouraged their threats aud menaces An ex-Dainocratio President assured them that he, along with others, would rush to their rescue were any force attempted. Other Democratic leaders, at Aleriden, Connec icut. and elsewhere, declared that a Northern army would have to march over their dead bodies before reaching Dixie. Democratic sheets. here in the metropolis, promised a huudred thousand defenders to the South from New York alone in the event of war. And one of them had a Rebel flag prepared to unfurl to the breeze opposite the way from where we are now writing. Encouraged by such "manifestations" the Southern leaders inaugurated secession. A Democratic President, instead of crushing the initiatory movements, looked calmly ou and declared that he had no power or authority to save the republio from going to pieces. While Floyd, as Secretary ot War, stealthily con veyed war material from the Northern to the Southern arsenals, the other members of the Democratic Cabinet as stealthily and secretly plotted against tbe nation's lite. ihen it was that our national burdens, over which Governor Seymour fairly raves and foams, began. The Democratic party had en couraged the fiery Southerner to assail the Government, and the Republican party has tened to its defense, calling upon the country for men and money. As the war continued, the Democratic party, as such, vigorously op posed it, continuing to give moral as well as material support to the insurgents, and dis couraging enlibtments. By thus keeping up a constant Lire from the rear on the Government, it compelled still greater outlays of men and material, and swelled the public debt. State and local taxes are now being paid all over the country be cauee the Democratic party prevented volun teeiing, encouraged "tkedaddling," aud hence necessitated the payment of heavy bounties. We, heie in New York, are paying taxes to-day for property destroyed by Governor Seymour's "Jrietds," when in the Summer of lbUli they rioted at will through our streets, aud under the belief that they had Ids encourage ment and sanction, plundered public aud private dwellings, audhotdonu unoffendiLg men, women and children. It is because of such deeds, because the 1 niocratio party, as such, continued disloyal until the end of the conflict, that we are now saddled with national, State and local burdens. Had the Democratic party been loyal to the country, there would have been no rebellion, no secession, aud no na tional debt. Had the Democratic party be come loyal on the outbreak of the rebellion, that rebellion would have been overcomeyears earlier, and our national burdens would have been correspondingly less.
