rolltical Assessments.
For many years tho Radical Congress
men and politicians liavo raised a cor
ruption fund by making assessments on
tho hard-worked clerks, poor laborers,
and other employees of tho Govern
ment. But ono Republican paper that
wo havo seen has had tho courago to
protest against this shameful procedure,
and that is The Day. Hear it :
"Wo find tlio following in tho 1'ress
"of yesterday:
"The assessments of tho republican congres
sional committco on tho employees of tlio New
York custom house will amount to 510,773."
"Tho holdncss of publishing such an
" item without censuro is a significant
" and sad commentary upon tlio times.
"Formerly, if such assessments wcro
" mado for partisan purposes, tho fact
" was kept secret. Thoso who levied
" and collected such forced contributions
" were ashamed of their work, because
"public sentiment would havo con
" demned it. Gentlemen who gamble,
"as gentlemen sometimes do, dosiro
" tho fact kept secret, and tho fact is
" crcditablo and complimentary to tlio
" public. But tho abovo item was print
ed without apology and in contompt
"of public opinion. Or, can.it bo that
" public opinion has so changed that
" such statements may now bo mado
'with perfect safety-? Wo trust not,
" though tho appcaranco of this news
" item in thoPms suggests a doplora
"bio demoralization of tho public
" mind. If such facts may bo now pub
lished without fear, gentlemen who
" chooso to engage in tho gamo of faro,
" need no longer wait for night-fall, nor
"go through blind alloys to reach tho
" residenco of tho truculent and trench
" crous 'tiger.' O, shame, whero is thy
"blush!"
Tho Radical Congressional Address.
Our opponents, nftcr levying their as
sessments upon tlio post-masters, labor
ers and other employees of tlio Govern
ment, havo Issued an address to tho
pcoplo stating tho grounds of their do
mand for a coiitliiuauco in power.
Tho main ono is that tho Republican
party saved tho Union. Tills is not tho
fact. If thcro had been no Republican
party, there would havo been no seces
sion nor any war. When it came, Dem
ocrats as well as Republicans assisted
in conquering a Victory, and among tho
leaders contributed fetich men ns Mc
Clcllan, Hancock, Rosocrans, Dix, But
ler and Grant.
Tho second claim is for having secured
liberty and suffrngo to tlio slaves. Freo
(loin to tho slaves was tlio inevitable
result of tho war, and was not its pri
mary object, and therefore tho Repub
lican party can claim no merit on that
score wo ncknowlcclgo that giving
tho negro tlio right to voto was an act of
tho Radical party, but it was dono as a
political measure, and In order to main
tain their supremacy in tho South
whero tho whlto voters wero almost
solidly against them. The recent elec
tions In Tcnncssco and North Carolina
show that they havo failed in tills
dodge.
They also claim tho merit of n suc
cessful administration. This wo deny.
Never in tho history of our country lias
thero been ono marked with less nullity
and with moro blunders. Of this fact
tho Committco had a dim perception,
becauso they wcro forced to admit tho
following :
"Accustomed to success oven against
fearful odds, and underrating perhaps
tho intrinsic tllfilcultles of tho pending
issues, many Republlcanslookou to Gen.
Grant's Administration with high
raised expectations. Of courso they
havo been impatient, and not always"
satisfied with results. But whilo theso
expectations havo not been fully real
ized in tlio nction of cither tho Presi
dent or of Conirress. much hns been
iicliiovcd; enough, at any rato, to satis-
ly tiiem mat tno uiiiicuit problems win
bo wrourrht out and tlio lioncd-for re-
Milts accomplished."
Tlio claim of a reduction of tiio pub
lie debt is puerile. At tlio closo of tho
war of course our expenditures wero
lcssoi'ed, and under Johnson's adminis
tration a reduction of tlio public debt
began. Tlio taxation was kept up to
tho war standard, and tlio generation
which fought tlio battles is being forced
to bear its burdens, besides keeping up
the most expensive administration wo
ever had in a tirao of peaco. Theso aro
thosubstanco of tho claims mado by
tho Radicals for a continuance in oftlco,
and wo believe they aro groundless and
insuillcient.
War Bosh.
Tho war now raging botween tho two
greatest military powers in Europe,
has been seized upon by an innumera
ble army of correspondents, real and
Imaginary, from tho seat of hostili
ties, and tho public aro treated daily to
batches of "nows"(?) so utterly Incon
gruous and incomprehensible that it is
absolutely astonishing that oven tho
American public guliblo as It unques
tionably is, "does not reject tho misera
ble stuiT, and Incontinently rofuso to bo
longer humbugged. Ono day theso vo
racious chroniclers of tho "situation"
givo out that Napoleon Is "laboring
under cerebral excitement, constantly
muttering that ho has been betrayed,"
and gloomily nwalting tho coup tVctat
that Is to end for over Jhis I3tnp.ro and
dynasty. Another equally positlvo
and perhaps moro truthful member of
tho correspondent's legion declares em
pbaticaliy that the "nephow of his un
cle" is at Chalons, in excellent spirits,
and in company with tho young geii'
tlcman who recently received his "first
baptism of flro" and at whoso "tran
quility" tho soldiers wept, rapidly or
ganizing tho troops being concentrated
at that point. Still another report do
ciarcs tho Emperor dead of an apoplo-
tic fit, tho Empress en route for England
through Belgium, and tho Imperial
Prlnco gono to Italy to accept protec
tion from Victor Emanuel. Out of all
this bosh tlio fact still protrudes that
vast armies on cither side, armed with
tlio most Improved Implements of des
truction, aro in tho Held aud will clash
In deadly fray on many a field cro tho
result Is known.
Mr. Fornoy.
If thero bo ono man in tho United
States, who, moro than any other, do
serves and receives tho contempt of tho
better class of tho peoplo and tho press,
that man is John W. Fornoy. No ono
has dono or is doing moro than lie, to
foster and perpetuato tho feeling of bit
terness which exists between tho North
ern and Southern people, a feeling which
weuld havo disappeared long since,
wero it not for tho oxlstenco of such
pestilent felloivs as this Forney, who
by malicious perversions of truth seeks
to strengthen his party at tho exponso
of tho peaco of tho wliblo country. Tho
New York Times, a Republican paper,
which diners from tho two published
by Mr. Fornoy, in that it is honest, ro-
mark3 as follows :
"What 1b about to happen when Mr.
" Forney's two papers begin to talk

Tho practlco of keeping $100,000,000
of gold in tlio Treasury from year to
ye.r, instead of employing It to take
up bonds that draw 50,000,000 annual
interest should bo stopped.
Tho amount of Interest debt would
bo reduced ono-thtrd by Imposing upon
tlio bonds a national Jtax equal to tho
amount to that paid In Stato aud local
taxation by all other property. This
would save $30,000,000 or $10,000,000 a
year.
By expending tho currency to an
amount couinicnstirato with tho busi
ness and industrial interests of tho coun

in employing it to redeem bonds, somo
$18,000,000 aycar Interest mlghtbostop

its collectors, inspector,!, pimps and

Collectors and Treasurers, who could
collect tho Federal taxes ni small cost.
2so extravagant grants of money
which aro now mado for tho "Whlto
House such as $2,000 annually for fuel,
and $10,000 a year for lighting tho Pros

Theso aro &ome, but they aro by no
means all of tho measures of economy
which tho party can and will proposo
for diminishing tlio lax-paying burdens
of tho people.
Stato Aid to Railroads.
In Indiana, Illinois nnd Michigan tho
pcoplo have put an end to tho system
of granting Stato aid to lailroads. It is
tlino wo did ho in Pennsylvania. Mil
lions of tho people's money have been
expended in this way, and tho result
ins been tho creation of scs'cral monop
olies that control tho entire Stato.
Through tho firmness of Gov. Geary,
nino and a half millions of dollars wcro
saved for tho Sinking Fund last Spring
but ut tho meeting of tlio next Legisla
ture, renewed efforts will bo mado to
pass tho samo scheme; and wo would
suggest that our candidate for tho Leg
islature, whoever ho may be, should bo
pledged to voto against any appropna
Hon from the Stato to aid in building
any railroad.
Wo havo had too much of this in tlio
past, and wo do not wish to havo It re
peated In tho future, ll'c do not believe
that thc2coplc should build and pay for
railroads, ami then pay for the privilege
of using them.

Wlilloln tho Land OIlco nt Harris
burg a fow days since, says tho Altoona
Tribune, our friend A. O. "Wilson, a
clerk in that department, gavo us con
siderable Information in roforenco to
unpatented land, from which wo infer
that thero aro many owners of real es
tato resting in fancied safety becauso
thoy hold a parchment paper showing
their land to havo been pateniod. Theso
parchments aro correct, and all Is safo
so far as thoy go, but from tlio number
of charges on tho books, against lands
in tho different counties, wo infer that
tncrolsa balancoduo tlio Stato on tho
majority of tracts in each county. This
balanco happens In this wlso: Tho
original owner took out a patent say
for 200 acres of land, but when tho tract
was surveyed it was found to contain
220 acres. Tho surveyor mado return
accordingly to tho Land Ofllce, and tho
balanco of patent monoy has been run-
on Interest, nt 3 per cent, per nnnum
from that time up to August, 1838, and
nt u per cent, per nnnum from tho lat
ter dato to tho present tlmo. In addi
tion to tho patent monoy and Interests
thereon, an additional chargo of $15 for
tho patent is added. "Wo noted ono caso
in which a tract of 100 acres hod been
patented, but when survoyod it was
found to contain -110 acres. Tho excess
returned to tho Land Ofilco and
chorged up, Including patent monoy,
Interest nnd $15 for tho patent, is some-
wiicro in tho neighborhood of $500. It
would bo advisnblo for all property
holders to seo that tho wliolo tract thoy
occupy has been patented, otherwifo
thoy may bo called upon, to settle a bill
when short graco is given. If thoy can
ascertain tho namo of thoorlginul own
er, thoy can readily obtain tho Informa
tion. Tho amount of monoy received
by tho Stato, within tho ilrst year, for
land patents, amounts to over $9,000,-000.
How tho Dead Soldiers arc to bo

A Berlin letter in tho London Tele

Mark ono instanco of tho German
practical spirit as a proof of tho fashion
after which theso Teutons prcparo to

has demanded that rank and file, cap
tains and generals, shall bo equally and
impartially mentioned in tho lists of
tho slain j but difficulties havo arisen,
becauso tho enemy cannot know tho
dead men's names, and, when tho mus
ter roll Is called after battle, tho missing
may bo only wounded or prisoners.
Germany has, in her solid, calm man
ner, arranged, in view of this difficulty,
that each wlfo and mother shall speed!
ly know tho best or tho worst about
thoso who go to fight "with God, for
king, nnd fatherland." Slips of parch
mcnt, llko luggago labels, havo been
prepared, on which the name of each
German soldier is plainly written, and
one of thc.so will bo fastened insido Ids

Question.
Letteii to the WonictNaMEN AT
ROCHESTEU.
At n mass meeting of tlio working
men, held nt Rochester on tho 1th Inst.,
tho following letter was read from Ex
Governor Seymour on tho question of
Chlurso Immigration to tho United
States!
Utica. August 3, 1870.
Sir: I put off until this tlmo my an
swer to your letter asking mo to speak
to a meeting nt Rochester upon tho sub
ject of Chinese Immigration, as I hop
ed it would bo in my power to do so.
I am sorry that I cannot attend. All
ngrco that It Is a gravo subject. It is
ono that must bo met, and It must bo
met now. Strong Influences aro at work
to open tho Hood -gates and pour in upon
us tho worst classes of over-crowded
China. They can get to our shores nt
less cost, and In greater numbers than
tho pcoplo of Europe. If thoy continuo
to crowd in thoy will overthrow tho
customs, civilization, and religion of
tho wholo Pacific coast, nnd they will
nlso crush down tho position of laboring
classes throughout our country. I am
against this. I am not willing that thoy
should gain a foothold here. No nation
In Europe would suffer such an Inva
sion. If Britain, Germany, or Franco
should allow anything of tho kind,
their governments would bo over
thrown. Why should wo givo up our
civilization in any part of our country
for that of Asia?
It is said wo want cheap labor. Wo
do not want cheap labor, but well-paid
labor. Interest, as well as Juslico and
humanity, calls for this. If all who
labor iu tills country took tlio faainu
wages and spent as littio money as tho
Chinese laborer, our government would
bo bankrupt and business would shrink
up. "Well-paid labor spends freely with
tho business man and fills tho national
treasury by tho Imposts and duties it
pays upon what it uses. This is tlio
wholo source of our financial strength
ns compared with other people. If la
bor is brought down to tho Chinese
standard, thero will at onco bo a differ'
onco in tho condition of classes which
will in tho end overthrow our govern
ment. Wo pay higher taxes and inter
est than than any other people, and,
tho prico of labor is put down to Asiatic
rates, capital will swallow up tho cam
lugs of toil moro rapidly than ever dono
in tho history of nations. If this Is to
bo our futuro wo havo lost iu vain
nearly a million of lives in tho lato civil
war. It is not tho object of govern
ment to undersell others, to pinch our
selves that wo may pinch others. Tho
great end of statesmanship is to givo
comfort and plenty to each homo, nnd
to tako caro that labor is well paid. Wo
should seek to givo happiness to eacli
fireside circle, and not to fill the coffers
of capitalists.
It is said by somo, if wo shut out
Chinese immigration, wo do so in tho
faco of our former professions. This is
not so. Wo invito European immigra
tion, becauso it adds to our power and
happiness. Europeans do not overflow
our customs, religion or civilization
They do not bring hero any straugo
blood. It has always been our practlco
to shut out any immigration that
hurtful. Wo send back to Europe crim
inals and paupers, by virtuo of Stato
and National laws. Every city and
town guards against incomers who en
danger social order or safety. Wo aro
in no way bound to tako into our public
system any mischievous elements, or to
destroy it by personal influences,
wo believe iu our religious creeds,
tlio forms and privileges of our govern
meat, then wo must beliovo that Asiatic
creeds and customs nro baleful. To-day
wo aro dlvidlug tho lands of tlio nativ
Indians into States, counties, and town
ships. Wo aro driving off from their
property tho gamo upon wliich they
live, by railroads. Wo tell them plain
ly thoy must givo up their homes .and
livo upon tho corners of their own ter
ritories, becauso thoy are in tho way of
our civilization. If wo can do tills, then
wo can keep away another form of bar
barism wliich lias no right hero.
I havo no doubt that tlio Chincso liavo
useful qualities. They are said to lie
good servants, ready to do tho work of
men or women, but thoy liavo not tho
traits which will build upon this conti
nent a great nnd high-toned power. Wo
must not judgo of thoso who camo hero
by thoso who stay at home. Wo get
only tho dreg. Thero Is but ono way
of dealing witli the matter. Tho policy
of exclusion must bo as sharp and as
vigorous as that of Massachusetts or
Now York against tho coming pauper
ism. It must bo borno in mind, that
under tho lato nmendmonls to our Na
tional Constitution, youcau givo them
no qualified condition, you put upon
them no political restraint, mado neces
sary by their peculiarities. Thoy can
grasp tho rights of voting and lawmak
ing desplto all Stato legislation. It is
to bo hoped that this subject will bo
taken up and discussed in n fair torn
perato way by all classes. Wo must not
let it drift nnd settle itself. Unless wo
aro ready to givo up tho consequences
of tliis now danger to tho public peaco
and homo happiness of our peoplo, wo
must confront tho problem at tho out
sot. Truly yours,

PAnis, August 17. Tho following
ofilclal dispatch has Just been mado
ubllc:
Metz, August 173 P. M. Wo had a
serious engagement yesterday, (tho
10th,) near Gravclolto. Wo gained
tho ndvnntngo, but lost heavily.
PAUis," August 18. Tho different bat
tles nround Metz wcro fought by tho
troops of tho Third nnd tho Fourth
Corps. About 10,000 French troops
wcro engaged. Tho Prussian loss was
cry grent and is computed nt 20,000.
Tho French loss Is comparatively small
owing to tho aid nflbrdod by tho can
non of tho adjacent fortresses. Having
attacked Pfalsbourg unsuccessfully, tho
russlans havo retired six milomotrcs
to tho valloy of Dorscuhelm to ass.uro
their communications.
Pauis, August 18 Evening. Tho

day's battlo near Doncourt and Vlon-
vlllo havo been obtained from official
sources : Prlnco ! rcuencic uiaries at
tacked our right, and was firmly met.
Tho corps of Gen. Argand, at Rezon-
ville, hastened Into tho nction, which
ceased only with night. Tlio Prussians
repeatedly attacked, us aud wero as
often repulsed. Toward night a fresh
corps sought to turn our position, but
was beaten off. Our losses nro serious.
Gen. Battaillo is wounded. By8 o'clock
in tho evening tho enemy was repulsed
along tlio cntlro line. Ho had 120,000
men engaged.
New York; August 10. A special to
tho World from Loudon states that tho
losses on both sides In tho battles of
Tuesday and Wodneiday woro fifty
thousand killed nnd wounded. Tho
Prussian estimated loss is 100,000 (?)
men sinco thoy entered France. Tho
pcoplo regard Tiochu ns an actual die
tator, and ho Is talked of as a prospec
tlvo Consul of tho Republic.
PAnis. August 21. General Trochu
has issued another proclamation, tho
meaning of which is that Paris will

Pauis, August 21. Tlio statement of
Count Palikao that tlio Fronch won a
