Reunion of Hie Northern and Southern De mocriM-y The Tarty of the Future. From the if. r. Herald. It was hardly within the limit of possibility that the Demoorauj could triumph iu the pend ing oanvasfl, (or, lu the wry nature of the case, their position was eaota as to awiken the mis giving" of the people. They neoeBBarlly stood before the country in an attitude of hostility to the party that could with tome show of justice claim the conduct of the war as a port on of its record; and the popular intellect, which gene ralizes on broad facta and does not weigh nice points, could eee no difference between oppo Bition to the party of the war and opposition to the war itself. This was made worse by the Impenetrable stupidity of Democratio writers themselves confounding the same things, and arguing as if the best way to expose the folliei and bluuders of the Northern war party was to glorify the Southern armies and depreciate the oourage of the national soldiers and the abilities of national generals. Thus, by the popular Tiew and by the coppery Instinct of its own writers, the lemooratlo party was at once debarred from assuming that attitude in Which alone there was a possible victory for an opposition party the attitude, namely, of a parly that, acknowledging and accepting the result of the war, wages its strife against the abuses and shortcomings of a political organi sation corrupted by the possession of too much power. Thus debarred from that only eure course, the Demooracy was from the beginning doomed to defeat. Certain of theemocratio leaders saw this not the Northern ones, for they are fellows rich in bully and braggadocio and the mean cunning of jobbery, just in proportion as they are poor in that true capital of a party edu cated thought applied to the solution of politi cal problems. Northern Democratio leaders Were summing up the total of spoils they would gather when they won, as the beggar of Bagdad counted the price of the chickens that were in his basket of eggs; and while they were thus busy the Southern leaders the same men who ruled our system by superior sagacity in days gone by were Weighing the chances of the oonllict and devising the means by which victory was to be secured sooner or later. These men saw that the contest of their party in this canvass against a name that so carried the story of the war as Grant's did was hopeless, and turned their thoughts to what might practically be done this year. They gave np the candidate to be named by the North on condition that the North would give them their vital points of prinoiple in the platform. This was a cheap victory. They could afford to let the North name the candi date, for it made no difference who he might be, since it was so nearly an absolute certainty that he mast be beaten, while in seouring the platform they were enabled to identify a new consolidated Demooracy in the very hour of its birth with that policy in regard to the Southern States that must eventually have the sympathy of the whole people. They gave np the candidate and the New Yorkers named him. The position of our city Democrats on the Presidency is this : if there is a man in the White House whom they can manage they would like to have a Democratio President; but if they cannot manage a Democratic President they would rather have a President of the other party. This is all in rsgard to the city spoils. A President they can manage will put their own men in the Custom House and the Post Office, and all will be harmony between the national plunderers and the municipal plunderers of this free metropolis; but if the President is one who will put other kinds of Democrats here to distress the municipal stealers and provoke division on tickets, they would rather have a President to pat in Republicans, Iroin whom they will be safe. This is their politi cal philosophy, and in the contrast between it and the political ideas that moved the South ern leaders we see the true difference between the two classes of men. The Southern leaders are looking, therefore, in this fight solely for its effect on the future. They know that they cannot win this year they must apprehend that they may not win for two or three campaigns to come; for, in view of the vitality that Grant will give, in view of the development of political purposes that will characterize his administration, it is at least possible that his party will reoeive from him an impulse that may carry it tri umphantly many years into the future. On the other hand it cannot be concealed that it is a paity naturally tending towards early disintegration. It is full of elements that are essentially conflicting, and that can only aot together while some idea or will altogether dominating keeps in abeyance the natural tendency. Already this inevitable divergence of the elements of that party may ba seen as it appears on one great topio in the comparison of the views of different radical leaders on the subject of national Ananoes. And while this is true, it is certain that the Southern Demo crats have placed their party right for the future on the subject that is to determine the fate of many candidates, the reconstruction of the Southern States and the relative posi tion of the different races of men under this Government.

Wiin an ' reiiei. ineoostoi iiepnoncan ruie, nowever, is mucn too large a question to ue aisposea 01 in this summary war. To judge of it correct ly, we must loek at it first a a whole, ranging from the aocession of Mr. Llnooln to the pre seat time; and next as compared with the expenditures of the Democratio party under Air. Jinobanan. In neither aspect iiM tne Ue pub) loan party reason to shrink from an investigation. The Republicans oame into power the inhe ritors of embarrassing legates left by their Democratio predecesors. They iuherited a Treasury abandoned by Cobb without money or credit, and a Rebellion whose aggregate cost exceeded four thousand millions. They started, therefore, at a great disadvantage. let they succeeded in restoring credit to the Government, and in discharging debt, daring the progress of the war, amounting to not less than $620,lM, 102. After the war, moreover, war expenditures continued. There were arrears of pajment due to the army and navy, pensions earned in the war, State expensos to be refunded, and other items 01 a speotai character accruing from the Rebellion. Add these to the debt outstanding when Lee sur rendered, and compare the aggregate with the debt now outstanding, and it will be found that since the spring of 1865 the Republioau party has paid off i?02, 733,321). Bach is its record in regard to the debt. If these enormous payments, together with the debt remaining, are to be charged as "the cost of radioal rule," it should never be for gotten that they are part of the cost of sup pressing a Rebellion for which the Democratio party is largely responsible. The entire cost of the war might, indeed, be debited to the Democracy. Whether this be done or not, Republicans may point to the extent of the reduction of the debt, and the unparalleled rapidity with which it has been aooomplished, as evidence of faithful and energetic steward ship on the part of their representatives. t or the debt itself they are not responsible, but for its diminution they may fairly claim credit. Nor have war expenditures and payments, on account of the debt, prevented attention to taxation. The reduction of taxes within three years, as compared with the maximum neces sitated by the war, amounts to $1U7,00U,UUU, of which $67,000, 000 were abolished last ses sion. This process of saving has been rendered possible by continual and unsparing retrench ment. The expenses of the War Degartment, which, for the year ending June 30, 1865, were $1,031,323,000, are for the current year 40,000.000; while the Navy Department ex penses have been cut down from $123,000,000 to ?17,JUU,l;UU.

The Democracy are hard pressed for argu ment, or they would not so grossly exaggerate the value of the service restored to their cause by the dismissed director of the Statis tical Bureau. His published statement added nothing to our stock of knowledge. It pre sents a vast array of figures, with various in teresting exercises in elementary arithmetic; but as a contribution to the store of facts re lating to the fioanoial condition of the coun try, it Is worthless. What truth it doss oon tain is a mere rehash from doouments with which the publio have long been familiar, while the alleged startling exposures over which the Democrats are exulting turn out, on examination, to be the&goonjeotural estimates of a man who has no peculiar title to credence or reaped. Bo far as ascertained facts are concerned, tbe issue is between Mr Wells, whose industry and fidelity in conduct ing inquiries, and whose candor in setting forth reauUa, have secured for him general confidence, and Mr. Delmar, whose egregious blundering even the Demooratio Seoretary of i ue .treasury iwuuq n necessary to rebuke. When passiDg from official data to the pro . 11 I . J . Ill - Da Die receipts un nxpeuuitarea ol a year which has yet nine months to run, this par tisan statistician parades his imt dixit type head-line which is designed to catoh the reader's eve. ana, n possible, nis saosonption The article is in Mr. Greeley's best advertising vein, and nothing short of the sorest distress in Mr. Sinclair's department could have prompted so vigorous an appeal to the chari table. The Tribune is announoed by the editor to be "the largest, best, and cheapest weekly newspaper in America," "the neoessity of the rainier," with a large F, and "a Teacher and of one phase of what "loilty" calls patriotism. This "we" and "us" and "oar" egotism may be necessary when the combat between Sin clair and the subscribsrs deepens, but the World no more neeas to resort to suou appeals to fill its treasury than it does to the Men and Brethren dodge, or the colored posters for colored readers. The World' $ enterprise is its advertisement and the evidence of its prosperity. The World is printed on at least fiftv-two davs in tbe vear when the Tri bune is not issued; we print a hundred supple ments, tilled with fresh intelligence and live matter, to the Tribune1! one; and in the oity where both journals are printed and both exert an immediate and direct influence, the voters who read the World outnumber those who read the Tribune more than two to one. The Iribune is, as it says it is, a Preacher, with the largest P possible, but it is not a teacher, or the total vote of its party in its own immediate bailiwick would be more than one-third of tbe vote of the party whose policy the World advocates. Nor can the Iribune be the "best newspaper" when it sedulously suppresses important news, as it often does, because it happens to conflict with the peculiar views of the Men and Brethren. But the Tribune has the right to resort to its own announced methods of appealing for succor and subscribers, and Mr. Greeley's latest editorial advertisement will no doubt be followed by the fall sowing of Mr. Sinclair' colored posters. What Shall le Done With the Negro I From the LouisvtUe Courier. Everybody has heard the story of the man who drew tbe elephant in a lottery. After the first flash of joy at his supposed good for tune was over, he began to consider what dis position he should make of the huge animal that threatened incontinently to eat him oat of house and home, and of which he could make no possible use. The story, it will be remembered, goes on to tell of the trials and tribulations of the unfortunate wight with his newly -acquired property, whioh thus turned out an insupportable burden instead of a pieoe of good fortune, and which he would gladly have gotten rid of by making it a present to somebody but for the circumstance that he could induoe no one to take it. Now we are disposed to consider the negroes very much in the light of the elephant drawn by the in dividual in question. They have been freed from their former condition of bondage, in which, by the way, they were really of some use, and turned loose upon the country; and new that tbe thing has been done past re-so tlon, the question is, what shall be done with them? It is useless now to discuss the wisdom of emancipating the negro. The fact that he is free is one which must be recognized; and we have got to make the best of the circumstance that we can. That he is proving a burden upon the nation most grievous to bear, and that he threatens to become still more so in the future, is but too apparent. The fupport of Sambo has cost the Government of the United States a mint of mony each year sinoe the period of his liberation, as the tax-payer's depleted pocket bears witness. The enormous expense of maintaining; the Freedmen's Bureau is but a trilling matter in comparison with the evils looming up in the future. As a rule, the negro is idle and self- indulgent. In his native Africa, and in the West India Islands where he has assumed his natural habits and condition, he does no work except when engaged in ooonpations that would scarcely be considered laudable among civilized and enlightened nations, but U con tent to lie all day in the shade of the orange or banana, waiting lor the fruit to fall into his mouth. From the day of their emancipation In the United btates the negroes have evinced a strong inclination to return to the instincts of their race as far as circumstances will admitof. In a great measure abandoning the industrious habits of the days of their servitude throughout the south, they nave crowded into the towns. with little dependence lor a livelihood except as they obtain it by alms or pilfering. Some of the towns and cities of our own State allord a striking illustration of this. The popula tion of Lexington, for instanoe, has, since the close of the war, been nearly or quite doubled from the oause we allude to. The citizens of that place very naturally regard the acquis! tion as anything but a blessing; and those who look upon the great number of dusky faces that peer out upon them, go in what direction they may, caunot but consider it a marvel how they live. Since it is thus already with the negro, there is no reason for doubt that, unless something is speedily done to prevent it, the soil of America will, ere long, be cursed with a sort of pariah by all odds more objectionable than any other ever n-nnnrn In Athav Innla . But the unpleasantness of having a race of idle vagabonds among us, and being compelled to maintain them, is not by any means the most formidable feature of the subject. The negro, possessed as ho is of strong animal passions and inferior intellect, is, in his new condition, peculiarly susceptible of evil futlu- ence. morowuo rp laiuiiior wiin me cunr- acter of the race, and conversant with its history, can be at no loss to form gome con ceptlon of the evils that might be wrought through the instigation of bad and designing men. It is no light matter to have among us an inferior people, with bestial passions and Instincts, capable of being aroused to turbu lence, insubordination, and rapine at any time, it may be said, we know, by some, that the docility and tractableuess thus far manifested by the majority of the Southern negroes should allay all such apprehensions Let it not be forgotten, however, that the foroe of the habit of respect and obedience to their former masters is still upon them. Even that, as our readers are aware, has not been able to prevent numerous outrages in different parts oi tue aoum. an offset to calculations based upon the exre rience of the U3t three years, his document becomes absurd. The contrast is then between the carefully compiled data of the Ways and Means committee, iortiuea in regard to income by the opinions of the Commissioner of Revenue, and the predictions of a discredited official, manufactured to oraer. uur uemo cratio contemporaries are weloome to all the consolation they oan derive from the latter source. But the World croes a little too far when it parades Delmar as an authority in estimating "the cost of radical rule." The burden of the story is that the current flsoal year will rga tufioit; the only corrobora tion of which is found in a remark of Mr. Mctullotb, whose oppositWu to tion were now adhered to, the army, instead of costing forty millions in greenbacks, would cost seventy millious in gold; while the navy expenditures would be nearly forty millions instead ol the seventeen which Congress has appropriated. These comparisons constitute, after ail, the true test of Republican rule. Is Repub lican government cheaper or dearer than Democratio government f This is really the question to be met. We have answered it so far as it applies to two great channels of ex penditure. We have shown .that, notwith standing inflated prices, the cost of carrying on the army and navy i at this moment less taking everything into consideration than under the last Demooratio Administration. And the comparison may be pushed farther without shaking the result. Thus, the oivil list expenses, which were $45,790,058 under Buchanan, in law, averaged less than $zd, 000,000 under Lincoln, and have not averaged more tnan 84z,uui),uuu under Mr. Johnson, The total oost of carrying on the Government under Buchanan, with a population of thirty millions, and prices resting on a hard money basis, exceeded Beventy millions in gold, or, with gold at its present rate, about a hundred millions in greenbacks. The total now, with war prices still maintained, with a largely in creased population, and with territories added, is but 106,818, 447, or less than seven mil lions more than the Democratio total; and next vear it will be within the hundred millions. Republican rule, then, as it exists at this moment, with all the drawbacks conse quent upon the war, is actually cheaper than Democratio rule, as exemplified under Bu chanan's administration. 13 12 09 18 70 the Caugrea- A Flaming Colored roster. From the XT. T. World. A reputed writer on the Tribune has com municated, through one of the monthly magazines, the information that when funds in the Tribune office are failing Mr. Sinclair begins a broadcast sowing of colored posters throughout the country, and Mr. Greeley vigorously advertises the paper in its editorial columns. If this is so, the funds must be at an exceedingly low ebb just now, and this finanoial distress in the Iribune office fully acoonnts for the more than a column article in Wednesday's issue which announces the fact that the Iribune prints three editions, "each edition separate and distinctive," and consequently, by the peculiar logio of the Tribune, "they really form one journal." The same process of reasoning raises the tdaimed circulation of "240,000" copies in the article to "a half million" in the large And here we are led to consider the negro in his political aspect, in which we cannot but regard him as a most dangerous element of society. In an evil hour the radioal leaders bethought themselves of using the negro for political purposes. At the South, while intel ligent white men have been disfranchised, ne groes have, by the reconstruction policy, been endowed with citizenship, and constituted the ruling power. Utterly deficient in all know ledge of governmental theory, and the attri lmes that should periaiu to viticnohip, tho African has been invested, so far as the radical party could invest him, with the political con trol of the Southern States. Now we think it probable, such are his habits of deference to Lis late master, that for the present he will not go far wrong; but who, we ask, oan answer for tbe future f The policy of tbe radioal party tend3 to create a perfect equality in all respects be tween tbe negro ana tue white man, or rather, we should say, it inculcates the superiority oi the negro. We will not insult our readers by supposing that any legislation or any policy can create an actual equality of the races. And jet if political equality aud even Bupremaoy are to be bestowed upon tbe negro, is it not contemplated, we ask, to legislate him also into social equality f We confess we have no fears that anything the radicals can do will bring about an amalgamation of races, but ceitainlv what is occurring should make the American people anxious to prevent the pos sibility of ever bavlnir iu the Unitt-d btates a miserable mongrel race like that of Mexico. ITotl'manshlp-Autl what It Costs. From Um A. Y, 2'ribune. For the information of our country readers who would like to know how uiuoh one term of Hoffman as Governor would cost the Sta'e, we give a frw facta to show how much the city pays for Hoffman, and who gets the money. The followm? statement shows the BMK unt of our annual tax for the support of tho city government under various Mayors 218 & 220 S. FRONT ST. 21 17 18iH......-..21,U7 0S3 07 Johu X. Hoffman. 2111 . Irom the above it will be seen that under Mayor Opdyke, with a o urrency dep. eclated so as to average during his term (1862-3) only 70 cents on the dollar, the expenses of the city, in greenbacks, were no greater in the total, and somewhat less per hea l of the population, than they had been In gold daring the last two years of Fernando Wood. In short, the two years of Opdyke cost less la gold than the two years of Wood by tin diflWenoe between gold and currency on $21,000,000, or say $6,000, 000. This cannot be due to rise in prices, because gold, the key of all prioes, is lower. It is not caused by increase of population, because it is just twice as great per capita. We shall show that it is due to the operations of that gang of political thieves who have nominated John T. Hoffman for Governor. These operations cannot ba termed stealing, because the word stealing expresses neither their turpitude nor their magnitude. As a new term seem3 to be needed, we brand them with at once the most appropriate aud opprobrious epichet that occurs to us, viz., iiofjmanship. lloffmanship is the cooperation of politicians to plunder the taxpayers in accordance with the forms of law. It is a school of ethios which teaches that gov ernments are instituted among men in order that those who have charge of the treasury may make a "handsome thing" out of it. It is regarded a "handsome thiug" in Hoffman ship if an offiolal on a salary of $5000 a year oan spend $30,000, and have a net surplus of $100,000 at the end of the twelvemonth. Lar ceny is a rude and unpolished form of Hoff manship. It steals, but it leaves the law against stealing, plain and pare, on the statute book. Uoffmanship appl'es to the Legislature for an act speoially authorizing what if done without its authority would be stealing. An honest man, or an officer who "sticks" at con scientious scruples, is rejeoted by "Hoffman ship" as an impracticable fool, a sort of politi cal idiot. An officer who holds his tongae, pockets his indirect bribe, sticks at nothing, and stands by his friends, is promoted by Uoff manship to be Recorder Mayor Governor. : To illustrate the operation of lloffmanship we begin building a Court House in 1861, which ought honestly to have been completed two years ago for $2,000,000. It has already cost us nearly $5,000,000, is incomplete, and will cost us $7,000,000; $2,100,000 have been spent on it under the sanction of Mayor Hoff man. Who get3 the wasted three, four, or five millions f Let us see. On September 16, 1861, the Board of Supervisors resolved to build it of marble. On the 23d of the same month one of the Supervisors, on private account, engaged a marble quarry at Sheffield for $1250, which he and his associates after wards bought in fee for $3080,making their total investment $4330. Two responsible firms in this city offered to supply tbe entire marble for the building, one for $150,000, and tbe other for $125,000. The Court House Commissioners tried to get the marble thus in open market at the lowest terms. The Supervisors fought mem, aeieaiea them, ana two years ago the city bad already paid $420,000 for marble to the .Supervisor who had taken up his resi dence at the Sheffield quarry, and to his asso ciates. Soon after they sold the quarry for $S00,000 more. Here was a nice little "plum" of $1,100,000 obtained "according to law" and to the science of Uoffmanship. Whatever share of it is wanted to help elect Hoffman we wager will be forthcoming. By the same policy of "lloffmanship," the contract for the iron work was awarded privately, at far higber figures and to less responsible parties than could have been secure? had the con tracts been awarded, after due publio compe tition, to the lowest bidder with reBpensible sureties, do of the other oontraots. On the same polioy of "Hoffmanship" the sum of $108,209 32 was expended in supplying the armories of our city militia regiments with biatx wainut furniture, including such items as 4S b lack walnut chairs at $46 each. The further Bum of $99,152 55 was expended on carpus, painting, plambing, and other luxu ries of camp life. By the same policy of Hoff manship about $250,000 per annum are bled from the veins of the taxpayers, by one of Hoff man's prinolpal adjutants, under pretense of publishing (?) the city's advertisements ia a pretended newspaper called the Transcript, which has virtually no subscription list, and perhaps zuuu gratuitous circulation. Bv the same nolicv of Hoffmanshio the citv was invited to pay eighty thousand dollars for the clerical labor of preparing the report and eurveys of the Commissioners of Estimate on the opening of Church street. The same policy of Uoffmanship, after paying to its cor peration counsel for salaries and clerk hire $25,000 a year, a sum equal to the salary of the President of the United States, and three times that of his Cabinet officers, still, in one period of twenty-two months, pays $44,011 50 in countl 1ms to other lawyers, of whom one alone receives $21,727 50, and another $9775 The same policy of "steal and let steal" causes the Common Connoil to pay a noted politician, and eupporter of Uoffman for Gov- ernor, $18,010 a year for the rent of premises not worth tjb'COO, and neither fit nor occupied for the purposes for which the city is made to hire them. Need we continue ad nauseam the enumera tion of these multiplied schemes of robbery and plunder over which Uoffman and Uoffman ship preside t It is by these, with Uoifinan as Lord of Misrule, that our taxesin New York bre swelled from twelve millions of dollars per annum to twenty-four millions. Freemen of New York, do you want to see your anuual revenues parcelled out among the harpies who are now fattening on our street contracts f Do you want to invest twenty millions in a State Capitol, after the manner in which we are building our Court Uouse f Do you want to buy marble quarries for $1,500,000, which oost Hoffman's friends $4300 f Do you waut "doflmansbip" to double tbe taxes of the State of New York, as it has already done thoEe of the city f Are you eager to place the appointing and pardoning power of the State in ti e Lauds of one whom every creature of the mm power, every ponderer to vice, and every political and professional thief, is working for with alibis wU-ked might T If you do, elect John T. llflma a I If you do not, choose John A.
