Mr. Smjtbe's appointment of Mr. Pollard to a Blneonre position in lue Niv York Custom House has servd.t at least uuh good purpose. It ba3 devuontitra'.i!'l tlm woitliWaimM of the trt oath m anient or excluding from office unccrujjuloii? aduerttut f lim Uebrtllion. The author of "Tim Ii st Ctuso" id ona of the last men about who attitude towards the Union while the war lasted any doubt could be' rctasouablj eutnrlaiuHii. lie was not only a Rebel during the war, but a noisy, obtru sive Rebel for eouie time after the armies had withdrawn from the field, lid was oue of that malignant sort who would have had the con flict waged on the principles ot sav Be,y" ud who refused to conned the fact of conquest long after national authority bad triumphed, lie was a non-combatant, indeed, as these ferocious strategists amal'y are, lutS the editor of the Richmond Ex aminer he was inoecsant iu his etlorts to avert a pacific settlement, aud to ket-p alive the flame of hate between the suctions. His char acter was to notorious that when captured on board of a blockade-runner and sent to La fayat'e as a prisoner of state, neither he nor Lis frieuds ventured to deny his mischievous activity as au abettor aud supporter of the enemies of the United States. Both he aud they acted as though his rebellious character istics were something of which ho had reason to be proud. Yet this man, when a thousand dollar Fede ral office came within his reach, found no dif ficulty in Bwallowing the very oath which the law provides to keep just such persons out of Government employment. The obstacle which was intended to be insuperable proved inoperative at the point where its sufficiency might have been deemed most sure. An elaatio conscience disposed of scruples. Neither the fear of perjury nor the love of truth da terred Mr. 1'ollard from swearing according to the prescribed formula. The moral aspect of the question did not trouble him a moment. Its legal bearings aooording to his own apologetic explanation were all he paused to consider. lias not the term "sup port" a di3tinot legal import? he professes to have asked himself; and, of course, he goon stumbled upon a satisfactory reply. An obliging friend stood ready to help him over. "Why, Mr. Pollard," it was suggested, "you are no more incapacitated from publio office than would be Br-u. Wood, who wrote against the administration, or Vallandigham, who made speeches against it." The precise re semblance between Pollard aad Wood or Pol lard and Vallandigham we are not required to disouss. It is enough that Pollard, an avowed Rebel, did not allow the oath to block his path to office, and now seems prepared to take it as often as Smythes shall be found willing to give him the chance. The lesson taught is not a new one. Much Sweating never has permanently aided loyalty or truth. It is a burden which the - conscien tious are slow to assume, and which again and again deprives the Government of the services which it most need3. Hood men will not expose themselves to doubt upon the sub ject. They will not descend to subterfuge or quibbling to adapt an oath to their wants and wishes. They interpret it literally, as it was - meant to be interpreted, and are content to remain in private life. Ou the other hand, not even the iron-clad oath, nor any number of oaths, frustrates the purposes of those against whom the publio service most re quires protection. They regard the Govern ment as an enemy at whose expense they in tend to live, and digest test oaths as easily as they digest their dinners. It always has been so and always will be so. The whole ten dency of modern legislation in countries where oaths were""formerly relied upon to exclude particular classes, is to dispense with them as a wrong to the worthy and a baga telle to the bad. The Pollard case shows that the test oath is of little value as a check upon appointments to office, when the party appointing and the appointee happen to be intent upon accom plishing certain ends. We know, however, that the requirement which is easily sur mounted at the Custom House and elsewhere, excludes from positions of trust and profit in the Southern States thousands whose partici pation in the Rebellion was involuntary, and, in comparison with Pollard's, harmless. And the class thus excluded is made up of citizens whose characters and experience qualify them for useful positions The time is not distant, let us hope, when the work of the Republioan party shall be bo far com pleted as to render possible the correction of this anomaly. Uolden. Girls. Prim the IT. T. World. All the gold in the country, we are oon atautlr told by the financiers, is runuing oat, at a dreadfal rate, to England. London, is threatened with an auriferous jaundice; New York with a green-sickness of irredeemable paper. This may be true, so far as the baser uses of the royal metal in its baser forms are concerned. It certainly is not true of the finest aud most potent shape in whioh the auriiacra fame.iea possess the souls of men The dazzling ingots of California and Colorado mav be leavicg us as jingling coins. But they are coming back to u, having suffered a sea- ohanee. in a sudden Fpieudorot golden tresses eleamlug upon lovely heads. The popular burlefaue of Jxton, whioh last fall took the town captive, might properly enough have been entitled Midas, Midas was King of Ljdia, which Ixion was not, and the one name would have borne quite a3 much relation to the major part of the uerformanoe as the other, for it cer tainlf is no more likely that the song of Tally was a Welshmau" ever echoed through Olvmoua tnan it is tnat tne avaricious mon arob may have solaced his lor g ears with the strains of "WalkiDg in tbe Park." But all that Midas touched turned to gold. And the burlefaue of ixion is working a similar miracle. It found the female population of New York, on and oil the stage, pretty evenly divided between bionics ai.d brunetteB. It threatens to leave us for the future the slaves of aa exclusive golden gynooraoy. 1 wo or three clever and lively actresses coining upon us. like Milton s babriua, with "loose tresses of amber dropping hair," have revolution ized tbe chignons of tbe metropolis. Never were the poljchromatio hopes of mankind iu such instant peril. Some years ago, it is true, a "Club des Blondes" was orgiuized In Pais. the avowed object of which was to biinc annnt the eventual extermination of dark haired women by making dark hair iu womn as decisive a disqualification for ruatri too"y as is the loss of a thumb in men for the miUury service. But this club was not half ft r"1,BK as the present movement. Fjr, alter au, tliB Ptrj tlub DH7er prttexilrti to deny to. Bouh Wless dark -haired women as ?n7 ?lVU tigU t0 rulR, dark-haired; ana, as .uere ar Ulany mm(j4 ot many men, a dark-haired woman relent still hope tlltt I Heaven would mercifully incline towards he ,r I the heart of some mate who, though unfash ionable enongh to admire her rococo charms, might not be wholly iaadequate to her nndi. lint it is now clearly understood that ch mis try makes it poscibly for any woman to be come a blonde, so that those win obsti nately persist in being brunettes will Boon be recognized as "strong-minded" ard odious persons not fit to bereoeivedin polite oirclts of their own Bex, and oertaln to be despised and rejected of men. The result of tide, of course, wi.l be a general suicide or emigration of all such persons. In thoie re mote new countries, like Tasmania and Ore gon, where the men monstrously outnumber the women, and civilization exerts but a modi fied control over the natural inatiuoU of the race, there may be some cbancs for the perpetuation of that type of beauty which moved the soul of him who Bought and fonnd the princess sleeping in the enchauted wood: "Love, if thy tresses be m d:trlr, How ilaiE these bidden ejeti luUHt b !" I5ut the mdalnocomts (we like to use Greek words in such a case, for they have a pleasum air as of the names of patent pomatum) will utterly disappear from the foremost Tegions of Chiistendom. Is'ow this we think a thing to be deplored, and, if possible, to. be pre vented. Of course, we know very well that S velu borg declares tbe angels to be goldeu-haired, and only golden-haired. But there are a great many people, and very respectable people, too, although they would never di'dauu of quoting, perhaps not even of reading Tom Moore, have as strong a prejudice against the exclusively angelic in women as that Anajre ontio Irishman was audacious enough to avow inmost melodious verse. .And we are not aware that Bwedenborg himself goes so far as to declare that a Magdalen iu a bloud wig U moro of an auftel than a Madonna in her owa black hair. Golden locks, which are really only gilded locks, having bt en kissed, not by the bud, but by a bottle of cadmium or a pre paration of arsenic, are as a matter of fact to be esteemed wigs. The woman who wears them does not wear her own hair; nor oau she have any guarantee, wa suppose, that, iu case of her marriage with a demon of the other Sex, her children will rot insult her by wag ging polls of the hue of Krebus about her. But, whatever may be the hue of. the ohig nons referred for "elect ladies" in Paradirte, is it desirable, we aek, that here below the brunette shouM be absolti'ely abolished, and become, even as the dodo au i the megathe rium, a creature of memoirs an 1 of museums ? The hoary head is a crown of glory; but what can be said in praise of chryiop'okamio young women that may not be balauced by as good a word In behalf of their more sober hued Bisters ? Oue good chignon, as well as one good custom, may oorrtip' the world. If black be the d-vil'd livery, the faithful night ingale is brown; and though Shakespeare makes "Benedick" pronounce "Bjatrice" "too brown for a fair praise," yet he has warned us, iu Iloiaci and Juh't," against the perils of 'Saint-sediioiug gold" as ominously as he makes the friends of "Romeo" warn that amorons you'h against tbe mischief hidden in'a "white wench's black eve." "Don Giovanni" himself, that most mnlierose of mortals, after an extended if not a wholly creditable experience of the sex, seems to have paid tribu'.e to a certain moral superiority of the darker type? of beauty. "Leporello" tells us that the admirable "Don" preferred N"lla olotnl la Km i le.st Nulla brunali costa.isa." Now, grace and beauty are good things; but constancy also, if not pushed too far, has its merits. Golden girl, and even gilded girls, may endure for a moment and shine like Hies in the sun; but it will be a black day for the race when the dark-haired women are driven to the alternative of taking arseuio, exter nally or internally, by the overwhelming popularity of their more glittering rivals. The style may be, as Button said it was, the man. But the hair is not necessarily the woman, and still less fitting is it that the woman should be sacrificed to the hair. To die is human but why spell it with a "y I" The London papers are just now as full of the deadly effects of popular cosmetics for the hair as is the World of fusel-oil and other "adul terations of arf'in respect of what we eat and drink. True pallida mors respects neither the wigs of nature nor those of art. "Golden lads and lasses must, Like chimney-sweepers come, to dust." But why precipitate the catastrophe by chemical solutions? Let us appeal from "Benedick" out of love to "Benediok" in love, and with him consent that a woman's hair shall be "as heaven pleases." Let every true philanthropist among us, at the risk of temporarily losing his Bocial influence as a person of taste, sternly re solve that he will, stand like a man to every woman , no matter how dork her tresses. Ucneral Grant and the Radical MauageiT. from the N. T. Herald. What is to be done with General Grant f The sphinx continues dumb, and the listening worshippers gathered around him are in a painful state of perturbation. He seeks no conferences with the radical managers in the lump or in detail; he does not send for them, and when they call upon him to pump him he talks horse or offers them a choice cigar; he travels East, he travels West, he attends Union League welcomes, lawyers' dinners, wedding festivals, and fashionable suppers; he walks among the bulls and bears of Wall street and rides behind a pair of fast trotters amoDg the horse jockeys of Harlem lane; he sees everybedy, talks with anybody, and vet nobody can get at the secret ot his Cabinet or his policy. What does it all mean f Hoes he meditate the despotlo nle of Cromwell, pre dicted by General Blair i the treachery to human rights, feared by Wendell Phillips, or the defection of Captain Tyler or Andy John Bon ? These questions and such as these are not only perplexing the politicians, but exciting the public curiosity. Bnt this suspense oan not last much longer. For the present Gene ral Grant, without au official notice of his eleo ion as l'resideu', may emertaiu the sol dier's ideas of the propriety of silence on the subject; but next week the votes of the Elec toral Colleges will be counted and the result proclaimed inCongress, and then, perhaps, he will disclose bis chosen advisers and define his position. For a few days this week he is ex pected to be once more the lion of New York, and we nnd.rstand that the managing politi cians hereabouts intend to seize the opportu nity to draw Liui out to make him speak j to bring a pressure upon him which, ne cannot resii-t. They say that his reticeuce has been long enough refpeoted; that the pirty which has made him President is entitled to some respect from him; that it will have no further evasions, tnniDg, nengiog, or uumuuggmg; but that he must show his oolors and de clare his intentions, or prepare for the fate of JcbiiFon. The r cognized orthodox radioal organ here Las neither warning nor encouragement to give the faithful concerning .Graut, but it bticks to tbe Tenure of Offioe law. Oa the other hand, the Jauk-ln-the box, facing-both-ways, stud-Republican organ hard by betrays the Spirit of rebellion against the President elect. It tells him substantially that he does not understand his position; that he is not the master, bnt the servant; that even the wisdom of a still tongue in his oase has ceased to denote a wise head; but that, on second thoughts, General Grant may be wisely left to his own discretion. Here we have a sharply given hint of mutiny and a Bllky apology; but the hint is suggestive of an approaching fight among the factions over the shoulders of Grant. As the matter stands, it would appear that the first endorser of the paper of Jell. Davis holds the whiphand over the chosen orator of Andy Johnson. A few days more and we may have a solution of the mystery or con fusion worse confounded; but we must take things as they come. Meantime the House bill repealing the Tenure-of-Office law remains untouched in the Senate. The radical managers of that body distrust the eilence of Grant. They are evi dently resolved to bring him to terms in black and white before they give him their vote of oonfidenoe. We expeot, therefore, that he will go into the White House bound with the shackles taken from Johnson, and that so, under the law, he may be restrained from a general clearing out of the whisky rings aud all the other rings fattening upon their spoils from the Treasury and the tax-paying masses of the people. Not a doubt seems to be enter tained anywhere that General Grant will faith fully carry out the reconsti notion laws and all tbe other laws of Congress. The only fear Benss to be that he will bring to 1'ght and break up the vast and comprehensive abomi nations and corruptions anil robberies of the revenue rings aud lobby coalitions of the Re publioan party. What, then, is General Grant to d.i, if, as President, he shall find himself tied up, like Johnson, with the Tenure-of-Oflioe law t His true course will be to dismiss, as fast as he finds them, the official plunderers or confede rates of the plunderers of the Treasury, and to put honest men in their places, with his reasons to the Senate, as the law requires, for these changes. In pursuing this policy let the President act upon evidence sufficient, in his own honest judgment, for a removal, and let him pursue this purpose to a general clear ing out, and he may challenge the Senate to meet him upou this issue. He may have to light a lobby capital of millions of money; his sweeping plan of reform may be checked by the Seuate, but it will be supported by the country. Let'him make this battle, "and if hampered and delayed by the spoils coalitions of his first Congress, the next to be elected, iu 1870, will be with him. In our judgment the only serious apprehensions entertained by the radical msnsgers in reference to the Cabinet or the policy of Graut are their apprehensions of a break-up and dispersion of the hordes of radical spoilsmen and plnulerers now fleecing the Treasury at the rate of hundreds of nvl lionsayear. Worklngtnen's Grievances. Prom the N. T. Tribune. Several conventions have recently been held to devise ways and means to improve the condition of those termed distinctively the laboring class, or classes. We think it will be generally agreed that the object of these con ventions was good, but that their success in promoting it was limited. As our contribu tion to the end in view we prefer the following suggestions: I. One powerful reason for the existenoe of the evils complained of is. the excessive num ber of the laboring class, or those inaccurately denominated such. In other words, there are far too many people trying to livfc by work ing for wages. These often glut thelabor market, and oompel thousands to stand idle or wander in fruitless quest of work, who need and ought to have it. II. This need not be. Every youth who really desires to become his own employer might soon do so if he would. He has only to resolve firmly that he will henceforth earn and save to the extent of his ability, and he may very soon be an employer, at least of himself. Strong drink and dancing, bad com pany and late hours, are keeping tens of thou sands at journey work who ought long since to have risen above it. Every night's debauch keeps some one a competitor for journey work who ought to be giving employment instead of seeking it. III. Our youDg men seem too generally to insist on working as hirelings when they work at all., The sons of prosperous farmers aud artisans, who might follow the calling of their fathers in manly independence, prefer to crowd into the cities, there to compete for "situations" as tide-waiters, policemen, clerks, journey mento. When these talk ofthe op pression and robbery of labor by capital, they compel ns to wonder why they choose to be oppressed and plundered. IV. lie who works for the wages proffered by another confesses tnat they are more than he could earn by workiDg for himself. If not, why don't he work for himself, or struggle and save to be able to do so at an early day ? Kemember that our country gives land to all citizens who will settle upon and Improve it V. He who works for himself necessarily prescribes and regulates his own hours of labor. He may limit his day's work to four, six, eight, ten, or extend it to twelve, four teen, or sixteen hours he may work many hours to-day and few to-morrow he may make long days at one season and short at another and no one else has any right to in terfere. Why is it that bo many choose to go and come at another man a whistle .' VI. Our remedies for the grievances of workingmen are two: 1. Be your own em plovers so far as may be; 2. When your work is such that one can't do it, attain the end by cooperation. Let a dozen, a hundred, a thou sand, combine to' build houses, steam-engines, or make stoves or steelyards, under an organt zation that will secure to each the just and fair reward of his labor and skill, under such provisions and regulations as we have re peatedly suggested. VII. If you cannot (but you can) or will not employ and pay yourselves, don't find fault with those who do. Kales of Interest. From Ih N. Y. Tribune. General Butler's main plea for the adoption of his irredeemable paper is the low rate of interest at which,-he alleges, it will cause money to be loaned. Cheap capital would be an incalculable blessing to the oountry, aud wo Biiau nau as a national deliverance any plan whioh will even tend towards it. We need not argue that no currency would be "cheap" which abolishes our ooin revenue. But suppose this error were eliminated from the plau aud the remainder carried out, would it provide a currency which would be loaned at lower rates of Interest? General Butler's idea Is, that under his currency whenever money "were wanted" bv merchants ana others under such circumstances as at present lead them to apply to banks or individuals, and get their own notes or those of their customers discounted, "the rate of interest wonld rise," i. e.. above'the Blx per oent. iu coin payable by the Government on the bond, and the bondholder to eeoure the higher rate ofinterest, i. e., the excess over the fiix per out. which he would receive bv holding his bond, would return his bond to the Treasury acd would allow the Government to deduct 3 C5-100 per oent. per annum from the Inte--rest on the bond for the sake of the excess over six per oent. in cin whioh the bond holder will be able to obtain from the per son to whom he loans the currency. At a system of relief to the money market, there are several objections to this. 1. The currency cau only be obtained from the Treasury by the bondholders; whereas the business men who waut the loau are never bondholders; if thfy were, they could get not merely ninety per cent., or even par, bat from 108 to 114 per cent, of the face of the bond by selling it at current rates iu open matlot. U. The currency oannot be obtained from the Treasury Iu exchange for the clan of se cmities to which commerce gl'es rise, viz., not s , bills of exchange., mortgages, etc whioh are the only eecurities on whidi merchants borrow In the ordinary coarse of legUlante buMr.esp. X There would have to intervene, there fore, between the Treasury as the lender and tbe mercantile class as the borrowers, the same third class bankers or bondholders, who would have the bonds to deposit with the Treasury, and who would be able to ascertain the adequacy of the commercial securities offered by the merchant, and willing to risk the currency ou mercantile loans. Without this there could be no elasticity to the cur rency, nor any means by which, as General Butler desires, it should expand aud contract with the wauts of trade and traders. 4. As the bondholders' profits on th? loau wonld te limited to the excess of the six per cent, coin interest, equal at present to 8i p)r cent, currency interest on au amouut at least ten per cent, greater than the amount loaued, the minimum at which a bondholder or banker could loan currency to a merchant uuder this plan without loss would be niue per oent., if there were no risk ou the loau. II 'it as the bondholder has really made two liaus, and thereby incurred two rljks one iu his original loan to the Government represented by the bond deposited with the Treasury, aud the other in his loan of the currency received thereou to the merchant, secured by the merchant's notes and bills it follows that the bondholder or banker must get for his two loans two distinct rates of interest i. c, he can only make the loan at double the ordinary market rates. If current rates are 7 or 10 per cent., he must get 14 or 20 per cent., as the casj may bs. For this, he gets only 2 Jj-100 from the Gov ernment. He must charge the remainder, 11 (15-1( 0 in the formeicase and 17 05-100 iu the latter, to the borrower. As these rates of in terest violate our usury laws, the bondholders would charge au additional percentage for the increased risk of loss through them. Besides, they would have to charge something for the time they might be compelled to hold heir currency awaiting oproitunitieB to lend it. We do not fee, therefore, that General liut- ler's system does more than convert every bondholder into a national bank, nor that such a proceeding would in any other manuer rednce our rates of interest than by making banking free a change which we think re quires far other securities to be thrown around it than those imposed by General Butler. We fail to see that, undxr his system, rates of interest could range below about 15 per cent., or about twioe what they are now. Although General Butler declares that he has tried to avoid iu his bill the question whether the bonds are payable in coin, he really legislates that they shall be payable in his new "simill tode?." He provides that all debts due by the Government shall be payable in tbem, ex cept wheie the act creating them "provides" ctherwise. No loan acts expressly "provide" otherwise, exoept in relation to the principal of the 10-40s. I hey "assume" otherwise We hardly think it necessary to discuss whether the entire two thousand millions of "similitudes" authorized by General Butler would be issued. We doubt if the world will .ever see them, unless he issues them himself. BRANDY, WHISKY, WINE, ETC. Y. p. Y. p. Y. P. TOINO'S PUKE HALT WHISKT. TOUKU'fa PCBE HALT WHISKT, TOUKU'N PCBE MALT WHISHT.
