From the N. Y. Tribune.
Mr. lloffmau la Again with his ijlpsjr
kenperg, arid has reoeivert, w nnieratana, an
affeotionate welcome. Mr. Tweed oompll
m tinted him upou having taken good oaru of
his clothes, while Mr. Sweeney counted his
Eocket-moiiey, aud was delighted to find that
s had not snt more than his allowanue.
lie was then taken over to Brooklyn, where
he made a new speech. He would have made
the old one, but District Attorney Morris lives
In Brooklyn, and it was feared Mr. Morris
wonld asK ugly questions.
Mr. Hoffman will be sent into the rural dis
tricts at an early day, possibly into Pennsyl
vania. Mr. Oakey Hall will aooompany him.
Cur country triends will please to give Mr.
Hall the reception due to the great "fenoe,"
and thief-protector of New York Mr. Oakey
Hall, by virtue of his oflloe, is the proseoutor
of evil-doers, while by virtue of his Tammany
alliance he is the defender of every rascal tb.it
votes properly. Mr. Hall is the scouting gipsy
of his tribe. It is his business to watou over
the gipsies, to keep an eye on the polioe,
ana, when Father Tweed and Mother Sweeney
come home tired from the Albany Hen-Roosts
and the Supervisors' Barns, to sing songs and
make merry Jests. These antics are perfeotly
harmless. Mr. Hall is a down by profession,
and he merely follows this company, just as
he followed the Republicans very recently.
His wear is motley, and his business is to make
joats and turn somersaults for his employers.
He will be very much enjoyed, as he has
some new diversions, whioh are quaint and
pleasing. For instance, his prank that Mr.
Hoffman is an "honest man" and will make
an honest Oovernor, is intensely amusing.
Nobody is expected to believe the clown here,
any more than to believe him when he
assures the country ploughmen that the ring
master is a nobleman in reduced circumstanoes,
and that he himself is a willing but badly-used
follower. Many honest yeomen give their dol
lars because they think the elown "a olever
fellow," and that the ringmaster wears elegant
embroideries whioh oost him thousands. They
do not know that the money goes to the hard
faced creature who keeps the gate, and that
the wit of the clown and the elegance of his
associate are salaried virtues. In the same
manner these yeomen are asked to reward the
"deportment" of Hoffman and the antics of
flail with votes, under the impression that the
votes will inure to their personal benefit.
It's a mistake l The votes will go to the
man at the gate, and his name is Peter B.
Sweeney. Hoffman is a paid actor put up to
"draw," and dressed for his part with oare.
Ilia speeches, his movements, his attitudes,
are all written down for him. He is the
"heavy" man. He must not smile. Hid look
must be pensive; and as he appears before
Rochester, and Buffalo, and Brooklyn audiences,
it is his duty to speak of publio virtue and
economy, and the Constitution arid taxation.
He must fly into a passion about radicalism,
and summon the pit with tragio energy. Hall,
with his banjo, will make them merry again.
There is as much difference between Hoffman
on the rostrum, and Hoffman in the ante
chamber of Mr. Sweeney, as between the tin
seled Riohard who sits on the carpeted throne
and the poorly paid actor who coaxes the
manager to pay him his salary. We have no
objection to these performances, if the people
will onlj remember thay are performances.
Far be it from us to interfere with our
worthy Mayor earning his bread. He has
good powers of speech, a round, pleasing
voice, much expression, and recites his
speeches fluently and with earnestness,
having been raised and clothed aud fed by his
keepers, he can make them no less a return
than loyal gratitude. He has made money
for his keepers. The success of Mr. Bateman
with his merry French people, of Mr. Wheat
ley with his slightly dressed women, and of
Mr. Hayes with his Humpty Dumpty, is nothing
compared with that of Sweeney, Tweed, and
Purser, and their "unparalleled" attraction.
All this money has been made in the narrow
field of New York city. Give them the State
plant Sweeney and his gang in the Trea
sury and the wealth of the lately deceased
Mr. Stevens will be as a drop in the bucket to
what will open before them. Then Napoleon
Tweed will show us that his Court House
achievement was but the Rivoli of his splendid
career the mere shadow of what his genius
can accomplish.
Tweed and Sweeney are the men to beat !
Hoffman is not in the canvass. He is the
Trojan horse of the Tammany ring t Admit
him into the Executive chamber, and we shall
see the day of wrath. Our gipsy from Sing
Siug will give us a thoroughly Sing Sing ad
ministration I
Tribulations or the "Tribune."
From the if. T. World.
A writer, who is reported to be one of the
Ttibune staff, has favored a monthly magazine
with an interior view of the Tribune, iu whioh
he makes the following interesting disclosures
relating to the eomomy of that ollice:
"When business U dull and money is scarce,
Slnoialr aUvrrilbes the Tribune extensively
throngl) l he country press, and bows his posters,
headed 'Mow Is trie tlmn to subscribe!' turoagu
out every Slate In the Union. During the past
winter there was iiatdly a post, ollice iu the
UDlted States but what was adorned with a
colored Tribune poster. When business is brlak
and money Is plenty tue Tribune eats Us way
Into the affection of ihb people on lis own
mei Its, without Bdertl.lLi. Mr. Oreeley writes
the most of the Uribune advertisements, and
especially thnso ringing ilourl-leade4 Intro
ductions to Toe Terms of the 7'ribune,' appear
ing on the eiil tonal on ice. Suou sentences as
Trie Combat Det-peuM' or 'Friends of Freedom
ant Humanity!' opu an advertising argument
In Mr. Greeley's best vein."
A writer who is so candid about the busi
ness affairs of the office can hardly ha the
same individual who stated one day that it
took less time now to print the weekly than
it did last year, and a day or two after that
it did not take lets time. His frankness is
frightful, for it is an admission that subscrip
tions, receipts for advertising, and money
matters generally, were at a very low ebb
Indeed during the past winter, when Mr.
Sinclair was adverti&ing the Tribune through
the country press and sowing his posters.
Still more interesting is the announcement
that Mr. Oreeley does the Men and Brethren
business in the editorial page solely as au
advertising dodge. When the "Combat
Deepens," it means that it has already reached
such a depth that the bottom of the money
drawer Is plainly visible. "Friends of
Freedom and Humanity" is uttered not so
muoh in view of au assault on the life of
Liberty as in reference to rapidly expiring
subscriptions. AU the Moral Ideas business,
and the Humanity with a large n, and Pota
toes with a large P, sum up the old story:
"The contrabands singled the sam old tune
Two dollars a year for tha week ly ZVn.un) '
O let my people go."
. If the Tribune would only follow the enU.
f 'fifing, l beral, and judicious course of the
VurlJ, it need not advertise in the Skowhe-
5 an Clarion, or "sow posters" on the New
ersej oranberry patches, or, in other words
and in other ways, admit the emptiness of its
exchequer. The Tribune' circulation, espe
cially its oity circulation, is small because it
confines itself to a small party. The World is
willing to let lis large and constantly increas
ing list of readers see what the opponent of
Demooracy as well as leading Democrats have
to ray. We published Blair's speech and as
much as we could get of Stanton's side by
side, in tbe same issue. We gave the Repab
lican speeches of Fremont aud (irlswold. Our
readers are fully Informed of what the radi
cals do at all their great gatherings. Ai a
consequence, we gain subscribers and have
hosts of readers in both parties, and our libs
rality and perfeot fairness have drawn thou
sands of subscribers from the Herald, Sat,
and other radical sheets whioh pretend to be
"independent." A live newspaper is its own
best advertiser. The supplements which we
publish three or four times a week, fllUd with
fresh intelligence and matters of vital interest
from all quarters, are better advertisements
than all tbe posters Mr. Siuolair ever
"sowed." Nor need the World make the
confession that it must resort to country
advertising and poster-pasting to replenish
its treasury. Our enterprise as a newspaper
has long ago enabled us to outstrip in circula
tion any and all papers whioh endeavor
to keep themselves before the people by
means of "eolored posters," rather than by
the contents of their columns. The fairness,
fullness, freshness, and general merits of a
good newspaper will "post" the people as
well as itself, and bring the immediate re
turns which are manifest iu every depart
ment, including the treasury of the World.
Tbe Tribune' magazine writer has frankly
told how the 'Jribune tries to raise the
wind, and we as freely tell the Tribune how
to make it a strong and constantly swelling
gale.
The Ponce of (Jrant, the Grave or Liberty.
Petersburg ( Va ) Index,
Wendell Phillips, win is the real leader of
the radical party, and who always oooupies au
advanced position which it never fails to march
up to, thns speaks of Grant in a recent num
ber of the Antt-blavery Standard:
"Tbe people have ocen largely eduoated to
tha nation's ntcessliy and duly, and do not
even afleel to put i lT any share of It on the
shoulders of Grant, or fancy thai, be cn or will
lead anybody, or lu auytulng. They sue lu
him a tool, not a leader."
The nomination of Orant by. the radical
party was owing solely to the fact that it did
not have an available leader, aud wa foroed
to take an available tool. If Grant should
prove less supple than the party leaders anti
cipate, he can easily be removed by impeaob
ment, and the Chicago Convention made pro
visions for that contingrnoy by appointing
Colfax as his successor in case it became neces
sary to depose him. It has beau said that in
case Grant is elected it is his intention imme
diately to resign, retaining his present high
and lucrative office, aud hand the reins over
to Colfax, confining himeelf simply to the exe
cution of the decrees of the Government,
should the army and navy be requisite for
that purpose. Thus will be accomplished the
fate whioh our great friend, De Tooqueville,
feared and predicted for us. Lit any of our
readers turn to the concludiug ohspters of his
great work, "Demooraoy in Amerioa," where
he shows tbe strong tendency of all communi
ties where the doctrine of equality prevails to
relapse into a central despotism. The great
problem in America where we have no aris
tocracy, is to maintain at once our individual
freedom and the equality of each individual
before the law. .
The almost irresistible tendency among a
great Democratic people is for the individual
and the municipality to hufioma haljilaaa, aud
for the great central power to become absolute
and omnipotent.
What He Tocqueville feared for ns was that
from a great republic, prolific of great men, of
heroic souls, and independent manly genius,
we would sink into a great nation of little men.
We would become vassals to a vast ami
mild despotism, which would deprive us at
once of the wish and the will to be free, and
whose all-pervading power would not be the
lef s despotio and irresponsible, because au en
ervated and debased people themselves ap
pointed the instrument by which it will be
administered. He points out that such a Gov
ernment will give us peace, and that this is
the attraction which it will offer, and that in
some weak and unguarded moment, following
tha turbulenoe of civil war, the nation w'U
accept the fatal bribe and exchange liberty,
freedom, independence and glory, for equality,
despotio peace, and inglorious ease.
A tone of mournful foreboding pervades the
conclusion of this great man's work on
American Demooraoy. When we first read it
before the war, we did not share in his appre
hensions. But the oourse of events has
proved that the prophetio intuitions of his
genius are probably about to be demonstrated
by the inexorable logio of events.
He did not, however, quite despair of our
Republic He pointed out the way of escape.
It is yet open to ns. Let us reanimate the
form of our government and our Constitution
with the great spirit of its founders, and we
shall have the repose which aocompanies the
achievement of great and noble purposes, the
rest which follows high and heroio and suc
cessful action and the oalm satisfaction which
pervades the glowing hearts of a people upon
the humblest 6f whom its government dare
not tread, and yet for the humblest of whom
all the thunders of its power will awaken to
avenge a wrorg inflicted by a foreign hand.
Such repose, such rest, suoh satisfaction is
promised by the sucoess of the great National,
Union, Constitutional, Democratic party.
The peace of radicalism and Grant is the
peace of death and despotism. To accept it is
to lie down in the dust with all nations who
have lost their freedom, to whose graves the
Muse of History mournfully points and bids
ns beware.
Profit aud Loss.
From the N. Y. Evening tost.
The Democratic platform declares that the
Five-twenty bonds must bs paid off in paper
money, now worth seventy cents on the dol
lar. We have asked repeatedly whether the
paper money is to ba raised by taxing the
people or by printing it. Leading Demoorats
differ in their answers. Some say by taxa
tion, some by printing.
Mr. Pendleton, who would be Mr. Seymour's
Secretary of the Treasury if Mr. Seymour were
elected, is most speoiilo in his pltn. He
would meet the $500,000,000 already redeem
able by printing the greenbacks, except the
small amount provided by selling the surplus
gold in the treasury; and would withdraw
the national back notes, amounting to nearly
$300,000,000, as a compensation. He would
thus increase the aggregate paper issues by
some $125,000,000. The inorease in the aotive
currency would be about $200,000,000,
because tbe greenbacks now held as reserve
by banks would be released.
The shock to the credit of the Government
by such a step would put the premium on
gold very high. Every one per cent, of depre
ciation of the currenoy, with eight jhunired
millions of it in circulation, would' tax the
people eight millions of dollars. The total
result could not fail to be a random tax on the
Wfcges, salaries, and savings of the people, of
much more than the full value of the portion
of tbe beads repudiated.
I But let ns leave Mr. Pendleton's plan en
I tlrely out of the qaestioa. Let us assums,
that the more moderate views of those who
would pay off the bond with the present
greenbacks are the true expounders of the
platform. Let ns even suppose that the Gov
ernment could raise a surplus of $.100,000,000
next year, to redeem the bonds of 18b'2, with
out oppressive taxes; and could pay off the
bonds without depreciating the ourranoy.
What is the profit, aud what the loss f The
creditors of tbe nation, who have bargained
for $500,000,000, would receive only $350, 000,
('00. Here would be a clear saving of $150,
000,000 to the people. If tliir bo 40,000,000
of people, the net gain to eaou person would
be $3 75. Faoh family of six persons, tbat
lost nothing by the bonds or the currenoy,
would be the richer by $22 50.
On tbe other hand, something would be
lost. The pride whioh eaoh American has
justly taken in bis fatherland would be gone
forever. The nation would be stained, dis
honored, disgraoed before the world. The
cause of government by the people, in so far
as it is identified with ns, would be mtde a
byword and a reproach throughout Christen
dom. Our national self-respect would be
gone; and we and our children forever would
be made oonscious that we belong to a com
munity of swindlers, a country whose honor
cannot be trusted.
During the late war one faot helped the
Union cause in Europe more than a thousand
arguments. It was that Massachusetts fought
for the Union, and Mississippi against it.
Massachusetts had always paid her debts with
honor, and was respected. Mississippi had
cheated her creditors, and was despised.
Here was a faot widely known, and appeal
ing in a practioal form, whioh they could un
derstand, to the people of Europe. Thousands
of them rejeoted the Rebel bonds, and bought
the Union bonds, in consequence of it. Thou
sands more gave their sympathies and hopes
to the people whom they knew to be honest,
against Jefferson Davis and his followers,
whom they knew to be dishonest.
The Demooratio platform proposes that the
nation shall throw away the policy of Massa
chusetts, and adopt that of Mississippi. If we
do it, we throw away the proud reputation and
consoious honor with whioh the men of Massa
chusetts and of the Union have been able to
face the world. We embrace for ourselves,
our children, and our country, the universal
contempt whioh civilized nations have given
to the repudiators of Mississippi.
The question is a fair oue. The profit aud
loss are before the people. Each man must
judge for himself whioh is worth the most to
him, the honor and dignity of his country, or
the sum of $3 74. Every father of a large
family must decile for himself and his chil
dren, whether he would rather leave them
citizens of a respected and glorious commu
nity, or receive, for their disgrace aud his use,
the profit of $22 50.
Would it not be a pitiful sight to see the
men of 1SG1, who gave their sons aud broth
ers for the honor and the safety of this land,
sell it all from them, in the day of its triumph,
for $3 75 per head 1 If that which, three
years ago, we rejoiced to seoure at the oost of
a dearly loved life for nearly every family,
should now be traded off by the friends of the
heroio dead for twenty-two dollars and fifty
cents per household 1
The honor of the United States, the good
faith of their people, the fame of their suc
cesses, and the dearly bought fruits of their
terrible struggle, are in the hands of the
people. A body of ambitious politicians bids
for them all, and offers you, citizens, $3-75
each, if you will sell them out and part with
them forever. The question for November is,
are you for saier ana is mat your price:
lieturn of the ltcbels to Power.
From the If. T. Times. .
A dread of the return of the Rebels to power
is to-day tbe dominant feeling of the Northern
masses. It is that which gives vigor aud
earnestness to the Republican movement. It
overrides all cavil about the wisdom of Re
publican rule, and silences all complaint
about the unconstitutionality of radical action.
Grant the justice of all these charges; let it bs
conceded that Congress has been just as ultra
and unreasonable as is alleged acknowledge
the truth of whatever the Demooratio organs
see fit to say about military despotism, ruin
ous taxation, and an oppressive debt; all
these evils are felt to be infinitely less than
that involved in giving the Rebels renewed
ascendancy in .the councils of the nation.
Nor is it at all surprising that this should
be so. What these men did when they had
power before is a good criterion of what they
wonld do should they get it again. They had
power, without stint, down to 18G0; and the
use they made of it plunged the nation into
war. The Rebellion was the direot and inevi
table result of their asoendanoy. They sought
to perpetuate their- sway; and when they
found it had come to an end, they tried to
break up the nation they could no longer rule.
If they were again to get the power they had
before, they would again use it for the same
ends. They would again put the national ex
istence in jeopardy, rather than share political
power with any other class of citizens, or
accept the principles which the war has esta
blished. Until the meeting of the Democratic National
Convention their purposes were vague and
their plans indefinite. But the place assigned
them in that Convention made them bold.
The certainty that they would have the alli
ance and support of the whole Demooratio
party made them reckless; and they pro
claimed openly the means by which they would
feek a restoration of power and the objects for
which they would use it.
They intend to overthrow and "disperse"
the local governments newly established in
the Southern States. They intend to to break
up their Legislatures to drive their Gover
nors, elected by their people, out of office to
silence their courts of justice, to nullify their
laws, and sweep away every vestige of the
civil authority they have established. And
then they intend to establish new govern
ments, to elect new officers, and to make new
laws to suit themselves. And all this they
intend to do by the action of the President
whom they hope to elect by compelling him,
as their party representative and tool, to use
the army for this purpose, and to foroe the
acquiescence of Congress in this violent over
throw of governments which have been estab
lished and are now iu active, effective opera
tion under the sanotion of the national autho
rity. What is this but revolution f Even if the
Southern State Governments were not created
in accordance with constitutional forms, they
are still de facto governments, ereoted in ac
cordance with the will of the people, and br
the direot action of the people themselves.
They are discharging all the functions of gov
ernment, and are performiufr, with more or
less sucoess, all its duties. If the Democrats
seek to change them, let them do it in the
regular, peaceful mode provided by tbe Con
stitutionby the action of the people them
selves. Let them appeal to the Supreme Court
and to the popular vote. If they seoure a
verdiot in their favor from those tribunals,
they will have no difficulty in carrying it into
effect. But if they discard them and attempt
to oarry their point by resort to violence aud
force, they will again eucouuter, in their
second attempt at revolution, as they did in
their first, the foroe of the nation, with the
Government of the nation to wield and di
reot it.
The people do not desire any suoh renewal
of strife, nor do they Intend to permit it. The
open attempt of the Rebels to regalu power
has aroused the strongest and sternest oiipo
ition. It has infused into the ranks of the
Republican party the utmost enthusiasm and
energy. The Demooratio party, by giving
the Rebel element tha control aud direction of
its policy, has awakened to renewed life and
action the patriotlo spirit whioh crushed the
Rebellion, and whioh will crush this attempt
to renew its aims and efforts. Sinoe Wade
Hampton, and Forrest, and Beauregard, and
allthemostviolentleadersof the Rebellion have
come to be the foremost leaders of the Demo
cratic parly, and are found now marshalling
the gTeat mass of that party, as they mar
shalled the hosts of the Rebellion, to the
oontest 'against Grant and the National Gov
ernment, there is no room for doubt as to
the aim and temper of the oontest. It is a
renewal of the old struggle. It is an effort
to restore the Rebels to power. And to
that tbe loyal people of the whole country are
invinoibly opposed.
A Dad Dusiucss.
From (he IT. 3". World,
How is this T In his late exoulpatory re
port, Major-General Meade thus speaks of
certain proceedings in the case of G. W. Ash
burn, a leading Georgia radioal killed in a
negro brothel at Columbus, in that State, on
the night of the 30th of Maroh last:
"Hence many arrests were made of pinles
who were subsequently released, on lta being
proved that they were neither partlcnmlors
nor bad any knowledge of the case. In all
theae cases the parties were well treated, aud
ou belLg discharged were paid thensual witness
fefs for the period they were removed from
their business."
It will be seen here that the "many" ar
rested parties were released on proving their
innocence, the presumption being, of course,
that they were guilty not a very hopeful in
dication, by-the-by, of the spirit in whioh
General Meade went into this business.
Next we have it stated first, that these
parties were "well treated;" and, seoond, paid,
on release, "the usual witness fees." Why
they were paid any witness fees at all when
they were arrested and confined, not as wit
nesses bat criminals, does not appear, and
suggests the application of a douceur as hush
money; but, be that as it may, in a communi
cation appearing in the Columbus (Ga.)
inquirer of the 20th inst., it is denied that at
least nine of these persons ever received a
cent, their names being given as the brothers
Marks, William Cub, Cliff B. Grimes, James
Lawrence, and Dreury Lawrenoe, confined in
the cells at Atlanta Barraok, and William
Bedell, Thomas W. Grimes, and Robert Eonis,
kept in the Columbia jail. It is also stated in
that communication that the scene of incarce
ration was in "dirty, filthy cells," whioh it is
submitted is not being "well treated." Now
all this, perhaps, may not be of muoh import
ance in one view of tbe case, but in another it
is certainly worthy of note that in the brief
compass of nine lines General Meade manages
to say that he arrested men on suspicion, held
them as guilty till proved innooant, treated
them well by patting them in filthy cells, and
paid them as witnesses when he had laid them
by the heels as assastins. This is a bad busi
ness, and it cannot be conceded that the exenl
patory report makes it any better.
