The old Virginia politicians were always lamons for their love of abstractions, and llioir ability to cavil on the ninth part of a liair, and the new men brought into political f rominenco by the modern course of events poem to have inherited this peculiarity of their predecessors. Under the old pystom, Virginia was the most steadfast of the Democratic States. The majority was not always large, but it was reliable. Negro suf frage, however, brought into politics a new clement that would have secured a steady Buccession of Kepnbliep.n victories if the Re publican leaders h:d possessed sufficient wis dom, patriotism, and good feeling to avoid divisions, and to present a solid front to thoir wily adversaries. The registered Toters comprised 14 ,04r white and 11S,!'.T Llack men. If but one Kepublican ticket hnd been pluced in the field, nearly every colored oter would have supported it, and, acting iu Conjunction with the white Republicans, they would have won an easy triumph. The re sult of tho late election strengthens this view. "Wells received loi,2!H votes, against llt,4U4 thrown for Walker, and whilo all the supporters of the former were thorough Republicans, the latter also gained a considerable number of adherents from the same party. The mass of the Wal kerites, however, were evidently men of Rebel antecedents. There was not "a red marau der in the land" who did not sustain tho "Walker ticket. They hnd two important objects to accomplish the encouragement of the Republican dissensions, and the exclusion of the proposed clause disfranchising Rebels from the new State Constitution. They have Bucceeded in both, and they no doubt hope to follow up this success by the speedy establish ment of an avowed anti-Republican party. At this juncture, the Chairman of the Wells Committee, who undoubtedly represents tho mass of the Republicans, has requested tho Chairman of the Walker Committee to ignoro the prevailing dissensions, and to unite in an effort to promote a cordial union of all the Republicans of the State. His overtures Were expressed in respectful language, and they appear to have been prompted by a proper spirit. The Chairman of the Walker Committee claims, in reply, that "tho Grant- "Walker party is tho National Republican party of Virginia, representing the policy of the President and of Congtess, and as such has no division to heal." This answer indi cates that the new Governor and his friends intend to render further service to their Rebel allies in return for their support at the late election. It is folly to claim that the old Virginia Democracy are either dead or thoroughly converted. They are under cover Bomewhere, and as they cannot have taken Shelter behind the entrenchments of the Wells faction, the presumption is that they are making a masker, battery of tho Walker administration. Whe the passions engen dered by the late campaign have more thoroughly subsided, new overtures may meet with better success. If they do not, Repub Iicamsni in V lrginia will he slow to recover from the wounds inflicted by its professed friends. TLTE TENNESSEE ELECTION. On Thursday next the election in Ten nessee will take place, a Governor, State Superintenient of Public Instruction, and members of the Legislature to be selected. The contest in this State resembles that in Virginia, both tickets being headed by avowed Republicans. The Republican Convention which assembled in Nashville some months ago to nominate a State ticket, terminated in an old-fashioned Southern row before even a temporary organization had been effected. Colonel William B. Stokes, the present mem ber of Congress from the Third district, sub Bequently received the nomination for Gover nor of one faction, composed mainly of the colored delegates; whilo the remainder set up De Witt C. Sentor, a reconstructed Rebel, Who had been president of the State Senate when Purson Brownlow Vacated the Governor's chair to enter the Rational Souato, and thereupon became the acting Governor during the remainder of tho term for which Brownlow had been elected, Between these two candidates, each claiming to be the regular Republican nominee, a bit ter contest has been waged. They have travelled the length and breudth of the State In company, addressing the same audiences in alternation, and abusing each other in terms which aro characteristic of tho only gtate in the Union which could bring to the surface simultaneously two such masters of the art of abuse an Andrew Johnson and Par son Brownlow. The bulk of the colored population appears to side with Stokes; but Senter Las led on a Very large proportion of the original oppo nents of secession, including both Andrew and the Parson, and rallies to his support tho entire conservative element. At the Prosi dential election last November Grant received CG.757 votes, and Seymour 2,11 a majority of a),44(J for the former. Senter will poll the fullRfivin.mr vote, and thousands of those who voted for Grant will support him. But, most important of all, the Supreme Court of the State has decided that, as acting Governor, be 1mm the power to remove the commission. era of registration, and to fill their places by persona of Lis own selection, when in his judgment there is sufficient cause for, jjq ' 4oh3g. 91 this power , Tery liberal use, and the new registrars are accused of openly defying the Franchise law by placing on the lists the names of thousands who are disfranchised. In this way the voting population has probably been sufficiently in creased to give Scuter a docidod majority. His supporters earnestly advocate the repeal of the disfranchising laws at present in force; but, while the more reasonable people throughout the country unquestionably sympa thize with them in this object, the mannor in which they are attempting to ignoro the laws while yet in force is, to say the least, one of questionable expediency. The candidate for Superintendent of In struction on the Stokes ticket is J. L. Mc Dowell, his opponent being Albert J. Tipton. The standing of the last Legislature was as follows: .SVml'i. Republicans '.'.r Democrats Joint ins 4 sn 4 republican majority, 2f 101 Totals 2 In consoquenco of the of the struggle between St 109 peculiar character the Gubernatorial candidates, the result test is also involved of the Legislative con in doubt. Later ad- vices represent that the Senter leaders fear that the Democrats will serve them an old party triok, and attempt to secure con trol of the new Legislature, independently of the Senter movement. But in the event of the Senter faction securing a majority of the members, it is understood that Andrew Johnson, who so recently rejoiced at his emancipation from tho tyranny of Con gress and the cares of office, will present his claims to the seat in the Senate now held by Fowler, the anti-iinpeaeher. Tho fact that he resides in Eastern Tennessee, from which section comes also the Senatorial Parson, will tend to damage his prospects in no small measure, while the opposition of the old-line Whigs places his chances in still greater jeopardy. OUR DIPLOMATIC SERVICE. In England, when they wish to dispose of some professional politician, whom it is not safe to intrust with any responsible office at home, and who refuses to be suppressed, they make him Governor, or Lieutenant Governor, or Secretary, or give him a berth of some kind in one of the West Indian islands, where it is devoutly bowed that the tropical fever will do for him so that he will be heard of no more. This sort of political banishment is not unknown in this country, but we make consuls out of the rag-tag and bob-tail of our political parties, and send them abroad to represent the great American people in all quarters of the civilied globe. When a fellow becomes too importunate and will not be satisfied without an office of some kind, they make him a consul to get rid of him, and to send him as far away from home as possible, with the sincerest wishes that he may never come back. If it is some great gun in the political world, to whom a home office of value equal to his demands cannot be granted on account of publio opinion, he is provided for by a foreign mis sion, it being supposed that the French, Spa niards, and other benighted foreigners will be obliged to put up with him for fear of a row, and that they will at least treat him politely out of respect for his official position. It is certain that, with a very few honorable exceptions, our whole diplomatic service is a scandal and discredit to the nation. Men whom the administration would not venture to assign to post offices, or even common clerkships, at home, are considered plenty good enough to represent us abroad, until Europe, Asia, and Africa have been turned into a sort of Botany Bay for the reception of the political criminals of the United States. We sometimes complain that the governments of Europe ship their paupers and criminals to our shores, as the easiest way of getting rid of them; but they might easily retort by pointing to our ministers and diplomatic agents, whom they are obliged to receive and treat like gentlemen. I The United States has arrived at a position when this state of affairs cannot be permitted to continue without national disgrace. The revelations made during the quarrel between Mr. Hale, our late Minister to Spain, and his secretary, ought to bring the blush of shame to every American's cheek, and yet we have endeavored to sustain the well-won reputation of our diplomatic corps by sending out Daniel E. Sickles to succeed Mr. Hale. It is time that this whole Botany Bay system of diplo macy was done away with. We have interests in foreign ports that cannot be trifled with, that require intelligent management, and if we are to expect foreigners to respect us, we will have to send out diplomatic representatives for whom we have ourselves some respect. A reform in this matter has been urged again and again, but the United States Senate is interetted in providing for the place hunto rs under its patronage; and unless tne matter is vigorously and persistently urged, there is little hope for improvement. An improvement in our diplomatic service rests in a treat mea sure with the newspapers of the country, and if thev advocate it with the proper energy, Congress willjbo forced, in deference to public opinion, to inaugurate a new state oi anairs, Tub Aqe expatiates at length upon muniol nid extrftvaeiuiee. and the magnitude of tho g- - sums squandered to reward political favorites, There may be some truth in its statements, but we have no faith in its proposed reuiedios, A change from Republican to Democratic rule would only intensify existing evils. The Democratic rulers of New York city are unri valled for extravagance and corruption, and we have no reason to expect better things from the dominance of tho favorites of the Philadelphia Democracy. What is needed is that both parties should nominate and elect better men than those usually chosen, and that the whole system of municipal govern ment should be reconstructed on principles that would insure honesty and efficiency in 1 . 1 i 1 . f . .-. i T every ucpartment. nutuiiun iu sumo uireo- tions have proved entirely suooosstui, and if legislators and councilmen were sincerely anxious to stop stealing, plans could be de vised for guarding the publio interests at all NATIONAL WASITINOT0N MONU MENT. We are a great people. There is no denying that fact, for our orators have dinned it into our ears, every newspaper writer in want of a subject expatiates upon it, and every disre sjiectful foreigner who would protend to dis pute it would be looked upon with scorn and contempt, even if he did not got his head punched to convince him of the truth of the proposition. We have our weaknesses, how ever. There are some things for which, as Artcmus Ward would say, we have no "fort." There are a few matters in which we generally fail. One of our weak points is monumont building; in this we do not, as a general rule, succeed. Most of the monuments that we have managed to complete owe their exist ence to the exertions of a few energetic and enthusiastic individuals; but the majority of our efforts in that line approximate to failures, in an artistic sense at least. It is tolorably evident that the great American poople, whatever their accomplishments in other respects may be, have not as yet de veloped auy very decided genius for monu ments. Opposite to the President's house in Wash ington there is a structure that resembles a huge factory smoke-stack, or rather that is what it would look like if it were run up to the proposed altitude; for this was intended to be the biggest thing in the monumental liue in all creation. It was thought proper that, as Washington was the greatest man that ever lived, he should have the highest monu ment ever erected to perpetuate his memory. It is lucky for Washington that the perpetua tion of his fame does not depend upon the monument, for ho would be ruoro than half forgotten by this time. About twenty years ago tho corner-stone of this emblematic smoke-stack was laid with imposing ceremonies, and Daniel Webster de livered an oration, in which he demonstrated in a manner satisfactory to all his auditors tho utility of monuments in general and the importance of this one in particular. Some what less than one-half of the structure was run up, and thou tho funds ran out, aud for more than ten years it has stood upon tho soft ground of the Mall, a disgrace to tho nation, an eye-sore to every visitor to the capi tal, and threatening every day to tum ble over by its own weight. Tho opinion has begun to prevail very generally that tho best thing to do with the atl'air would be to tear it down, and run tho risk of having Washington's memory survive in the hearts of his countrymen without any such extraneous aids. Within a few days past, however, the air has been thick with rumors that Mr. Wil liam B. Astor has expressed an intention to finish the National Washington Monument at his own expense. Mr. Astor has money enough to undertake tho job, and if he should undertake it, it would be a monument for him as well as for Washington. Mr. Astor has not been in the habit of throw ing his cash around in very loose manner heretofore, and there is very excellent reason for concluding that ho never intended to undertake any such an enterprise as this. The general impression seems to be that it would bo a mere waste of money for Mr. Astor, or anybody else, to invest cash in the National Washington Monument, and some of the New York papers are therefore suggesting the propriety of his erecting a Washington monument entirely on his own hook in Central Park. There is a certain amount of absurdity in this proposition that requires no particular demonstration. If Mr. Astor doos intend to erect a Washington monument,he should place it in this city, and there will be no difficulty in his obtaining the intersection of Broad and Market streets for a site, provided he under takes to do the job in first-rate style. In Cen tral Tark it would be in a measure hidden from the world, whilo at the location we have suggested it would be seen of men and hon ored accordingly. However this may be, it is certainly to be hoped that our great nationat failure at Wash ington will either be completed by Mr. Astor or some other charitably disposed millionaire, or else torn down and put out of sight as soon as possible. At present it is a standing dis grace to the people of the United States. Mrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton has at last solved the grand and perpleiing problem of woman's work and woman s wages. Let a woman attire herself in the same rig as a man, discarding all such monstrosities in dress as the Bloomer costume, and going the whole figure in shirt and pantaloons, and she will command the same class of work and the same scale of wages as those of the other sex. This happy solution of the woman's rights question is certainly fortunate. There is but one drawback to it, and that arises in regard to the highly important question as to how the population of the world is to be kept at its present aggregate, without even considering the question of a material increase in num bers. If women are to be completely meta morphosed, casting off all their old habits along with thoir old clothes, who will attend to tho nurture and care of the boys and girls that are to take the places of the present generation of men ? And who, we beg leave to inquire of Elizabeth, will attend to the trifling matter of giving birth to another generation, when the present infantile supply is exhausted? When the skilled services of every woman in the land become worth four dollars or more a dav. by reason of her don ning a shirt and a pair of trousers, the luxury of childish prattlo will be placed oeyonu tne reach of men of modorate means. Op Covusk. The farce of a State election was gone through with in Kentucky yester day, and an overwhelming Democratic victory was the result. In 1861, the only thing that prevented Kentucky from going Democratic, like the rest of tho slave-holding btates, was the early arrival on her soil of a largo force of loyal soldiers. If she had been permitted to follow her Democratio proclivities at that time, she would not have been so intensely Democratic as she is at present. Ghosh Intortiok. It is reported that the editor of an Austrian newRpnpor has been fined five florins, equivalent to $l'7r, for proclaiming Andrew Johnson to be "the most corrupt scoundrel in America." In the name of all that is good, bad, and indifferent, what Is Austria coming to, and whither is she tend ing? Franz Joseph, spurred on in the path of liberal reform by his Prime Minister Von Boust, has inaugurated so many startling changes in the administ ration of his go vernment since the fatal day of Kwniggratz, that Austria is popularly supposed to havo become ono of the freest nations on the Continent. And now comes tho melancholy news that this en terprising journalist has been mulcted in the enormous sum of iJ'I'T.j for culling Andrew JoLnson "tho most corrupt scoundrel in America." Tho whole fabric of Austrinu liberty proves to bo as rickety as one of the traditional castles of Spain, and vanishes into the vry thinnest sort of air just as its goodly proportions havo elicited the admiration and approval of the whole world. The Austrian edi tor, happily for himself, when attempting todo up Andrew Johnson in a single sentence of less than ton words, drew it vory mild; but it must bo said that the judge who pronounced sentence upon him was not so dainty. The punishment inflicted was so extravagant in proportion to the enormity of the offense, that there can bo no doubt that the Court in tended to make an example of tho libeller. But then, as the New York Tribune remarks, in commenting on this en use rrkbrc, tho Aus trians "cannot be supposed to know Mr. Johnson as we, to our infinite joy and com fort, have known him." Another Kenig gratz is needed to give them the morest taste of liberty. Skins ok the Times.

THE CIIISKSK TJIADK From an "Abstract of Traile and Customs Revenue Statistics from lsC4 to ls8, published by the Impe rial Maritime Customs" of Cliluu, we take the follow ing extracts, which present a comparison of the Chi nese trade with the Tinted States and (rcat Britain. The tael Is valued at tws United States coin, and the plcul is equal to l:w pounds avoirdupois: The grand total of the customs revenue of China for the year 19G3 was i),4-2r),o.r.ti taels. The two great articles of export from the kinKdom ure silk and tea, and those of import are opium, of which a quantity to the value of 20,127.8(19 taels was Imported lu ISO; cotton goods, of which a quantity to the value of 22.373,Of0 taels was Imported In 1SGS; woollen goods, of which a quantity to the value of 6,511, B14 taels was imported In 1809. The grand total of Imports in lss was valued at 71,121,213 taels. The total value of the exports for 1869 wag 69,1'4i 733 taels. The total value of re-exports was 2,197,421 taels, What portion or this trade Is carried on iu American vessels is not ascertainable from the tables published by the British Government. To increase onr trade, the merchants of this country should have the active co-operation of the Consuls residing In China, and their reports, Instead of lyln"J in the pigeon-holes of the Bureau of Com mercial Relations for six months after their receipt, should be published, so as to aid iu the under taking. The bureau Is not to be blamed for this, and In many matters where red tape drags Its slow length along, the law Is the offending thing. Let the law be amended so that the merchants cun get the con sular reports before the ink becomes faded upon them, and this first step In the way of Information may lead to the spread of our commerce and the credit of the country.
