According to our pppoiftl advices from W'aHhinton a 1 i 11 will shortly ho passed by Conpross to enforce the ilfteonth aiuondmpnt in tho several States Bud Territories. The fiubjert wiih brought up before tho Judiciary ('oiumittcc of the House the other day, when Air. Iiiagham argued that the only object nought wiw to overcome the local laws of the tit at 08, no that the negroes could vote, and to enact ponuHies against all persona conniving to prevent the negroes from voting, in con travention of the fifteenth Amendment. This, Lo said, was accomplished by his bill, and such a bill, he contended, was necessary, be cause the Amendment itself did not carry Any punishment with it to persons who might choose to evade or defy it. Judge Davis, of the committed, did not think the bill referred to sufficiently explicit, and so on; from all which we may, safely assume that a law will ehortly bo passod to enforce said amendment. What, then, will be the effect of this negro vote in the several States in which the negro is wholly or to a great extent excluded from tho ballot box is the question wo are called to consider. It is estimated that under this new amendment the black vote of tho United Htates will not be less than eight hundred thousand. The bulk of it is in the late slave States. It is strongest in the cotton States, surpassing the white vote in Beveral of thorn, and is a formidable element in all of them. The anti-lie publican forces in those States, Democrats or conservatives as they may be called, will probably win over a large portion of this black element to their side in the in terval to their election for the next Congress; but the Northern and Southern border State Democracy have as yet made no signs, except those of continued hostility to "the blasted nigger." let it is possible that the Northern and Southern border State Democracy may lose half a dozen States or more by this foolish policy of hostility to the negro on the old Domocratio ground of the Dred Soott deci sion. According to the oensus of 18G0 the colored population in the States namod was as follows: New York 49,005 Connecticut 8,027 New Jersey 2.r,3;)6 Pennsylvania 60,840 Delaware 21,627 Maryland 171,131 Kentucky 230,107 Ohio 30,073 Indiana 11,428 Missouri 118,502 We select these States as those in which the negro vote may prove a most important political balance of power should the Demo crats concerned persist in their foolish policy of rejecting the blacks as political allies. We will give a few examples. Connecticut is a closely divided State two thousand as the popular majority on either Bide being con sidered a handsome victory. Now, allowing, on the universal male suffrage system, one voter to every six persons, the negro vote in Connecticut will be near fifteen hundred a vote which, in a close fight, may carry the State. In New York there are, perhaps, now sixty thousand citizens of African descent, or, say- ten thousand negro votes, which may prove the balance of power. The same may le said, but more emphatically, of the six thousand negro voters who doubtless can now be mustered in New Jersey. The ten thousand negro voters of Pennsylvania may turn the scale in that great State, while, if the Itepublioans are given the five thousand negro votes of Delaware, they will carry everything in that quarter. So, in Maryland, the thirty thousand negro voters going en, masse with the Republicans, as they are likely to go, from present appearances, may revolutionize that State. Even in Kentucky, with her forty thousand Democratic majority, the party will not long be able to hold out in its policy of hostility to the black race against forty thou sand black votes. The sharpest political fight ever made in Indiana was that offOctober, 1808, when the Itepublioans won it by less than two thousand majority. There are, we have no doubt, at least three thousand, probably four thousand negro voters in Indiana to-day, and if they are with the llepublicans they have the State safe against all possible contingencies. We present these considerations of the negro vote in the States especially referred to in view of tho importance of this vote in these States in the elections of next October and November for a new Congress, to say nothing of Kentucky in August. Briefly, the negro vote in half-a-dor.en of the otherwise closely contostod Northern States may establish the majority in the next House of Eopresentatives. What, then, is the course which common sense would suggest to the Northern and the Southern border State Democracy. It is the common-sense policy adopted by the old-line Democrats and conservatives of Virginia last Bummer, whereby they carried the State and secured two United States Sena tors and a majority in the delegation in the lower house of Congress the simple policy of cultivating the negro vote. In the cotton States the planters, by combined action in behalf of the negro political element, may readily gain the most of it. In the Northern and the late border slave States tho Demo cracy will find the task of negro conciliation more difficult, but still they may break the force of the colored vote by cultivating it, It is morally certain that if the Democrats as a national party desire to make the re-election of General Grant a comparatively easy matter, thev have only to continue in the old Demo cratio ruts of hostility to the Constitution as it is and a demand for the Constitution as it was, including "the almighty nigger." What say the old purblind astrologers of tho party? Surely they can't expect to make much by Dersistina in the back track of "the tinie- uonored principles of the party," which is as dead as j nuns unesar. AN APPEAL TO PENNSYLVANIA. From the A'. Y. World. We all remember the time when the De mooracy of Pennsylvania was an element of vast and concentrated power in our political atmosphere. When it struck, it was with vigor and effect. Its discipline was perfect, its organization thorough and complete. It made Presidents, and whoever had its support was always winner. Of the ten after Wash ington chosen by the Electoral Colleges, the vote of i'ennsyivania was given lor no less than eight, all Democrats; the otner two, Harrison and Taylor, being exceptional. Suoh was the power of Demooratio Pennsylvania down to the disastrous schism of 1800, when the great party which, as we have said, made Presidents was shattered to its centre, and, the mends of one candidate generally desert ins to the common enemy, the Itepublican ' Abolitionists, end those of the other placed by accident in a false position, the gates were I opened to tho radical Goths, who hsve ever I since mado Pennsylvania their ohpeciol ground oi iorsgo ana piunuer ana omragn, i un , blow given to Democracy in the KeyRtono Commonwealth, thotich severe, was far from fatal: and the siens now aft that, with an in fusion of young blood aud the guidance of able leaders, it will resume its old inuuonoe. ltut there is one tliMeully in tlie way, as to which wo take leave to uttor somo earnest words. We wish what we sny to le under stood ns snid by "party men to "party men." Thore need be no miucing matters, rinin words are always best. To the loaders, then such men as Judge 1 acker and General Cuss, and Senators Wallace and liuckalew, and Judge Woodward and Governor Higler. and Mr. Foster and Mr. Cassidy, and others. who are not disparaged by our not naming them and to the great JUemooratio masses who stand by them, is our appeal direoted. Its aim is to try to extricate the party in Pennsylvania from the false position it occu pies on the protection question; for false it is in very sense, and especially false in this that we do not believe thore is an intelligent Democrat, from the Delaware to the Ohio, not owning a furnaoe or a Kino mine, who in his conscience does not believe protection t be a political heresy and an economical evil. This is mani fested in the halting, doubtful support which, even under spocial local innuonces, the Democratic press, city or rural, gives to legis lative measures of this ultra description. There is a feverish languor in their tariff zeal which shows the weakness and hollow ness within. They revolt at being harnessed in the same team with ultra-radicals, who are pulling ahead with all their might towards the edge of the precipice down which ultra- ism always tumbles. The Patriot and Union, a very able paper, pulls uneasily with the Telegraph, organ of high radical protection, and the Jeffersonian will not pull at all with the lierord. In short, there is no heartiness in the help the Democratic press gives to high protection. It knows the whole thing is wrong. 'J. hen, too, in the .Legislature and Congress the subject is handled by Democratic l'enn sylvanians most gingerly or absolutely re jected. We hear of no high-tariff instruc tions, or, except nndor radical auspices, of no tariff town meetings. ben in Congress a resolution, such as was Mr. Marshall's the other day, reaffirming the ancient Democratic truth npon this subject, was voted upon, more than'one leading Democratic avoided voting, and Judge Woodward, the representative, too, of the coal pits of the upper Susquehanna, had the manliness to vote for it; and we are not aware that his conduct has met with aught but praise within the Democratic ranks. It was very manly, and it was very sensible. We have lately seen in the Tribune a communication of a threatening nature, dated "Columbia, l'a., purporting to be a protest from tariff Demo crats; but we simply note that three out of the seven signers are of one family, grown enormously rich by protection, and that all are residents of an extremely enlightenod community, which believes in Anti-Masonry to this day, gives 0000 radical majority, was tlie adopted and congenial home of Mr. Ste vens, who owned a furnace, and is repre sented by Mr. Dickey, who has a mine. Such a protest can have few terrors for a Lu zerne, or Columbia, or Clearfield Democrat. As well might Mr. Senator Coleman threaten from his Lebanon palace, or Mr. Cameron give warning from Lochiel. A ay, further, and taking n less elevated view of the question as affected by considera tions of expediency. The roll of PennsyU vanians in tho uemocratio ranks who nave a right to be aspirants for high position in the future has not been finally called. Those, such as the late United States Senator and his predecessor. Mr. Cowan now. we imacine. Democratic cannot be content to think that their career is run. Mr. Buckalew has shown he does not by following the example of Mr. Madison, long ago, in going from Congress back to the State Legislature. With aspira tions so high and intelligence so bright, they have read too critically the record of their own Mate and its public men to court the fate of those who promote doctrines they know to be unsound. "Tariffs" never made success to any man. Witness, . in Pennsyl vania, John Tod and Henry Baldwin, and Andrew Stewart and luchard llask wrecks of huge proportions which ought to be a warning to the light-draught craft which now nies tho protection bunting. On the other hand, did anti-protection in former days mar the prospects of Mr. Walker or Air. Dallas or Mr. Buchanan all Penn sylvania Democrats? Was not Mr. Clay willing victim and Mr. Webster a reluctant one, but, nevertheless, both victims to "high tariflism?" Do the signs of the coming time, with the great West bursting loose from thraldom, the South rising from ruin, again a purely agricultural community; the East, as ever, ready to moke a bargain anywhere, and desert Pennsylvania in a moment; do these signs of the great political revolution of lb 4 2 hold out any temptation to the Democrat of the Middle States to play the masquer any longer? Do they not show that here, as everywhere, honesty is the best policy, and that it is simple suicide to fight or even seem to fight for a mischievous dogma any longer ? We are quite aware that this atl homines view of the matter may bo denounced as a low and a narrow one. Such oftentimes are those which appeal to the essential impulses of poor humanity, but they are not tho less eff ective on thut account. There is not a word we have written which will not be re cognized in the inner heart of every honest politician, Democratic or llepublican, as truth, lhat tho question of ultra-protection, as affecting the material interests of Pennsyl vania, might be discussed from another and higher standpoint, wa concede. It would not take much tiuio or labor to show a Pennsyl vania farmer why, when his wheat has fallen and is falling iu value, his ploughshare oosts him more, as well as his clothing and the necessaries of his household, and, showing this, to convince him that protection for the benefit of the rich furnace-owner near by is not his interest. All this may bo easily shown; and hoping sinceroly that our distant counsels may not be thought intrusive, we cull on the Democratic press of Pennsylvania and the Democratic party, and the Demooratio leaders especially, to do their duty in this respeot, and abandoning all shams, social and econo mical, to ruiso again the constitutional ban ner which used to tly triumphant. The Presidential contest of 1872 will, barring accidents which executive inoapaoity or legis lative perversity may bring to pass, turn on this question of high tariff. Currency ques tions are settling themselves. No party dares imperil itself bv assailing the Dublin credit, and all that is luft will be the great and momentous contact between narrow, local, sporadio monopoly and the Riant pow era of agriculture and commerce. Let l'enn- sylvania Democratic Pennsylvania take her ancient stand with the great majority of the country, to find ber political influence re stored, and her enormous physical resources, on which we of commercial regions are so dependent, and whoso development we watch with so much interest, far better protected. and by a steadier and surer policy, than hey over have been or will be by spasmodic tar ids. ' , , WHERE WILL IT END ? From the A'. Y. Sun. If tho appointment of persons to lucrative or honorable positions bocauso they gave money or presents, directly or lndireoiry, to the appointing power, is a sumcient reason for degrading or expelling from oflioo those who have conferred such appointments and those who have received them, then we may well look ahead to see where this lino of pro ceeding is likely to end. The House of lto prosentatives have thus far applied these principles only to tho purchaso and Bale of cadetships in the national academies. Do they imagine that the people will mako no other and further Application ? Tho IIouso having put the guillotine in motion, do its members suppose that their constituents will roHt satisfied with seeing the blade fall only upon the necks of three or four obsoure Con gressmen ? If they do, they are very seri- ously mistaken. Congress has set the ball a-going, and they cannot stop it now. Do they believe that well-informed politicians do not 'know that members of Congress have long been in the habit of selling other places than cadetships that post offices, ossessorships, collector ships, consulships, and other lucrative posi tions, nave been disposed of by congress men for money and other valuable things ? The practiee doubtless reaches, in some in stances, still highor than the grade of offices just enumerated, while everybody is aware that it descends much lower. Who does not know, for instance, that it is not a very un common practice for the heads of bureaus and minor departments to appoint subordi nates on the condition that they will divide their salaries with their superiors ? Do the House of Kepresentatives mean to lay down the broad proposition, that if A be stows money or other valuable things upon is, and thereupon and in consequence thereof B appoints or procures tho appointment of A to ollice, both A and B ought to be expolled from the places they respectively hold ? If tho House do not mean this, then why drive from seats in their chamber Whittemore, Gol- laday, and Deweeso ' As we understand the action of the House, they do not aceept as mitigating, much less as exculpatory circtuu stances, the facts that tho money in question was raised without tho knowledge or Bolioita tion of the member who made or prboured the appointment, or was not paid to him directly, or was not pocketed by him as a bribe, but was spent for charitable purposes in his district, or to defray his election ex penses; nor do they accept as a valid excuse that the money was raised by friends and was contributed for the members benefit, in con sideration of meritorious services and sacri fices for "the cause." None of these picas availed Whittemore and his unfortunate colleagues. All that the House required to bo proven was that A paid money w hich was in some way to be beneh- cial to B, and that B conferred an office upon i A in consideration of this payment. That ended the case, and is has had to leave the House of TCopresentativcs, and A will doubtless have to quit West Point. If this principle is a sound one when ap plied to Congressmen and cadets, then why is it not equally sound when appliod to Pre sidents, members of the Cabinet, collectors of the customs, and other occupants of posts of honor and emolument f borne ot the gen tlemen at Washington may fancy they see a distinction in the two classes of casos; but the people elsewhere will not be slow to pro claim thut there is no such distinction; that one law of rectitude, of honor, of decency, binds alike a President and a member of Congress, a Cabinet officer and a student of a national academy; and that if that law con signs to ignominy and demands the expul sion irom power and place ot inferior officials and their humble beneficiaries, it is an out rage upon justice and fair dealing, and a gross insult to the people, not to inflict these penalties upon offenders of a higher grade. Is Congress prepared to carry to its logi cal conclusions the policy it has initiated ? If not, then it had better not have com menced it. Are the llepublicans in the House ready to see the doctrines they have laid down and put in execution in the Whit temore case, as rigidly applied outside of their hall, and even in the council chamber of the President if need be ? If not, then far better would it have been for their party if they had not so ostentatiously sent to the block a carpet-bagger of South Carolina. Is it imagined that the people do not cloarly understand this matter, and fully comprehend the nature and scope of the rule involved in tho recent action at Washington ? And do gentlemen lay the flattering unction to their souls that for the bribery and corruption which stain the Executive and Legislative departments of tho Government, the people will accept poor Whittemore as a scapegoat ? Let those in high places set their houses in order, for their hour draws near. THE MOIIDAUNT CASE. From the X. Y. Tribune. A publio not unused to sensations has been so thoroughly nauseated with the details of the Byron scandal that it may well be spared a surfeit of the complicated disgusts of the Mordaunt case. But thore is a line of judg ment with respect to this wretched affair which is not to be avoided. As in the post humous fate of Byron, we have the instance of a man of beauty and of genius doomed b several correct women to be the hero in a! men's eyes of a chapter of damnation and nothing loss, bo in that of Lady Mordaunt we see beauty and aristocrucy and fashion given over by men to devils. Poetry aud beauty in man or woman do not, if these cases have been truthfully told, cave their possessors from crime. Crime, on the other hand, does not save society from the contemplation of its duties and responsibilities, especially when commuted by poets and belles, 'ihe liber. linisin and intemperance of so many ohildren of fortune cannot be dismissed with a self satisfied Bneer or a shrug of disgust; for they convey terrible pleas as well as terrible con demnations. They ought to be a warning to all who write nastiness and sell it, and cer tainly they ought to give ns grave thought of that mutual responsibility ot the sexes wnicn is at the root of chronio wars and miseries, . We shall not dwell upon the particulars of the Mordaunt affair. Co to the Dirtn oi a child, Sir Charles Mordaunt and bis wife lived hannilv. till in a fit of remorse, excited by the peculiar troubles of her situation, the ludy made reiterated confession that the child was not her husband's, but Lord Cole's; and similarly overpowered by remorse, made the unsolicited declaration to her husband that she had been guilty with three or four other persons, inoludmg the rnnce oi waies. Afterwards, with the infirmity of a hysterical woman, she endeavored to undo the mischief of ber confession, and, calculating npon the alleged goodness of her husband, hopod to have her disgrace and his concealed. This hope failed her in the face of her pronounced confession and her apparent sanity, as testi fied to by nnmorous witnesses. Only for the period since the birth of the child and the 'confession consequent thereupon have the witnesses for the lady and among them a remarkable and Bingularly concurreut num ber of well-known physicians made "out a clear cose ol insanity. We think it shown that if Lady Mordaunt was sane at one timo she wbs insane at another, and accordingly 8ro inclined to bolieve that her British jurors have reached a deoent verdict from an indecent case. It is in effect that she is not competent to' respond to her husband's suit for divorce. Lady Mordaunt, however, is not the most distinguished personage whose reputation has stood on trial in this miserable case. The presence on the witness stand of tho Prince of Wales, and the production of a number of his letters, have given it a certain intorost to many whom its details would utterly shock and repel. Tho Bolonin asseveration of the Prince that he was not guilty accords with tbd exoneration given him by the lawyer of Mr. Mordaunt, but it does not relieve him from that blame which must signally attaoh itself to the conduct of a Prince, and that Trince the Bon of "Albert the Good," who is diverted from his own good wife by another man's bad one. It has, no doubt, relieved tho royal and noble and gentle mind of Eng land to discover that tho Prince's letters answer bo aptly to the charitable view of Mr. Mordaunt's lawyer. They are porfectly in nocuous. Ponies and partridges, woodcocks and stags, sledges and muffetees and why not muffs? keep from being objectless that vacuum of high life in which the most amiable of princes floats his powerful mind. In these clumsy letters there is not one touch of inor dinate acnsibility, but an endless suggestive ness to those who write novels for the aris tocracy. What boundless leisure, what rich parks and pastures, what elegant domestio life, do not ponios, stags, woodoocks and partridges, and muffetees, bring to mind, especially when written about by a prince! Alas for romanoe I Truth is stranger than fiction. Thepeople of the Mordaunt drama may be about as insipid and moan as super fine life or a superfine historian of that life could make them; but the tragedy of luxuri ous living is beyond the power of snobbery to depict. It is not the less terrible because it ! drowns somo of its actors as flies are drowned in molasses. The occupation of tho novelist of crime is gone. He may preserve for us curious court flies in amber, and pre sent us strange crime with rose-water and roBe-color; but the lawyers, and the judges, and the wretched men and women of every day make sad work of his boudoir and drawing-room. What is the use of his hinting at secrets of liaison and murder ? Why does he play with the awful game of life and death, the reality of which makes his best efforts so mean ? Why does he speak of love and ma trimony in such a spoony way, when here is Hymen's torch lighting tip the madhouse? Stop writing, man of ink ! There is nothing new tinder the sun. There is no secret which yon can impart. There is not a plot or mys tery which has not been revealed before judge and jury, and no scandal, no shame, no tragedy of books which has not been fami liarly outscandalized and outmurdered in this revealing life of the nineteenth century. WHAT SHALL BE DONE WITH JOHN CHINAMAN? From the X. Y. Time. The "Flowery Kingdom" seems destined to exercise a speedy influence npon the civiliza tion of the world, and especially of America. Exactly how the Mongolian element shall be blended with the Caucasian, and what will be the social and political result, are pro blems which are attracting much attention. not only in this country, but in Europe. If Chinese labor could be brought hither by legitimato emigration, no trouble would bo involved any more than in the cose of emi gration from European countries. We are thorough believers in the broad American dootrine of extending a welcome to all comers, demanding only in return that they shall as speedily and as completely as possi ble cast off their natural allegiance, and merge their nationalities in American citizen ship. If the Chinese question could be solved npon this basis it would involve no difficulty; but, unfortunately, the deportation of Chi nese labor has fallen into the hands of job bers, who seek chiefly their own profit. The den he population of that country has made the lower class very poor, and but few of the laborers are in a peouniary condition to come away without assistance. Taking advantage of their necessities, cruel and unscrupulous men have organized what is known as the coolie trade, and in many instances kidnap ping, and the grossest oppression and fraud have been practiced. The ostensible emi grant very often becomes marketable pro perty; and is publicly bought and sold pre cisely as slaves were. There is danger that a new social evil, similar in many respects to African slavery, may be introduced into our country by the establishment of a caste de grading to labor. Political considerations are also involved. These Chinamen are brought hither in large numbers, and placed by contract under indi vidual control in masses. They can be used in the concrete politically as well as in dustrially, and thus be made the innooont instruments of fraud. The qnestion arises whether this danger can be guarded against by legislation. We can hardly say to John that he shall not come to our shores unless he comes on his own account, for wo know that he could not come without assistance. If he comes at all, it must be under the auspices of some organized labor association like that recently put in operation by Koopmanshoop, the Hollander. With our past experience with the negro, there is little danger that his place will be taken by the coolie; but there is danger that John Chinaman will be preferred to the freedman, and that he will bo overreached and abuse d. The experience of some of the English colonies jin-tines such an apprehen sion, and shows that there is a tendency in that direction wherever slavery has existed. Notwithstanding stringent regulations, have been laid down by the British Government, and special colonial agents appointed for that purpose, it has not been able to prevent the perpetration of very grievous atrocities. Kecently the attontion of philanthropists has been direoted to the subject, and measures have been initiated to secure an international co-operation. The movement originated in London, and contemplates active labor in behalf of the Chinese in Cuba, Demerara, and Jamaica. We doubt not there soon will be a field for a similar work, in a more quiet way. anion or our own people at the South. Our laws, however, and the popular senti ment, will never permit the evil to grow to bo great an extent as it has elsewhere. Still it is a matter to be watched carefully and regulated. THE CAPTAIN OF THE BOMBAY. From the A. Y. Bun, The horrible calamity of the Oneida is enough to sickon a brute. But is any one weak enough to supposo that it will cause tho adoption of mcosures to prevent like trage dies we cannot say accidents in future? Further particnlnrs will fix tho blame where it rightfully belongs. Meanwhile can we wholly exculpate the publio men of maritime nations, whose duty it has been ever since the introduction of steam into navigation, to enact and strictly enforce proper laws to pro tect life on the ocean ? ihree-fonrths of tho globe is international domain, yet there is no international law to govern it. Hew easily could such a code be established ! National interests, for once, instead of conflicting, would be identical; and the number of the contracting parties would bring an increase of experience and intelligence to aid in enacting nautical common sense and common conscience into explicit statutes, backed by severe and inevitable penalties. . The first clause of suoh an enactment should declare the preoipitate abandonment of one colliding vessel by the other to be piracy, and its punishment death by hanging. There is no radical distinction between tho captain who kills seafarers for positive gain and him who kills them in order to avoid tho loss of money or reputation in which the iden tification of nis ship and consequent legal in vestigation might result. ' We speak from knowledge when we say that the soa swarms with suck pirates, and also from knowledge when we say that probably the United States f nmishes an unduly large proportion of them. The practice of abandonment is by many considered "smart," and we know what that means. We must not judge conclusively of the cap tain of the Bombay before his side of the story reaches us. Yet we can safely assert that whether he beard the hailing and the five great guns, or heard them not, has no bearing on the case. It is sufficient that his ship struck another hard enongh to let star light through her, and that be stood on his course without knowing whether she needed help. Yet let us not grow worm over this single affair. The practice is common at sea; there is no adequate law to prevent it; and politicians are, in all countries, too busy with private schemes to unite npon suoh a law as is iiecesHury ior me geuerui ninety.
