Qom closed in New York yesterday at
do, ANTICZPATED,i the House has tabled
the general measure, revising the Internal
taxes, upon which 'it has bCen for some
time engaged, and orders the proper Com
mittee to report a special 1,111 relating to the
manufacture and sale of distilled spirits and
tobacco. When this shall be submitted,
is to be made a special order, to be dmosed
of in advance of all other business.
TRE extent of Southern disfrainhisereent
seem's' to have been grossly, exaggemted.
The precise figures show that not over ten
• per cent Of the whites -are excluded in Vir
ginia, in North Carolina, shoat nine per
cent; in South Carolina about fourteen pe!
cent; in Georgia about nine per cent; in the
other States, unreported;•the percentage is
believed - to be about the sarbe, say not over
one tenth and,this is the utmost extent-of
Southern white disfranchisement for partici
pation in the rebellion. •
Mr.
PEINDLETaIi has a part of the ,New
Hampshire delegation, butdoes not control
all of that from Ohio. The result will 'doubt.
less show that his strength in all, the North
ern delegations hag been overrated, and that
he cannot gain enough to make up for the
daily desertions from him' and his &pain&
theories. It seems now asif he la to get
none'of the Southern vote, which will go to
Johnson and Hancock, mainly to the
former. The New York politichms, are
alarnied'by the head Way which the Chase
movement has made, and endeavor check
it by denouncing its eipediency. The Lea
explanation of the trimming tactics of; the
New York clique, and of • their organ, the ,
World, is to be found in the suggestion that
they, are 'litorldng in Mr. Johnson'S interest.
WE have been assured by le.sding Repul4

vital issue for decision in the New York

it addresses itself to the Democracy egthe
leading qnestion of the hour..
„Apart from finaiicial,ltobby, PENDLETON would`not
be an unacceptable candidate upon the

remarked, the other issue with which he is
more prominently identified, being very dis

REMOVAL OF THE CAPITOL.
Gen. Loaur t eitiolfitiori t for the appoint
ment of a Commission to select a new site for
the Capitol of the Union, .conteuiplates its
removal to the West, perhaps . to the Vall4
Of the MississiPpi: 'Competent architects
estimate the entire expense Of - * Wilzig down
and removing all thu public buildings at not
over, ell ruillions of-liollaref and It is
posed that.any State, which; furnishes anew
site for the Capitol, would meet all this ex
pense, without iittgokitirig t!te.gßvegunent a
dollar.
The tno - ver of the resolution fOr the
removal assigns, for reasons to 'Justify the
change, thedisregard of law and, the'gener
al and coastiint disloyalty of the population
of Waabiagtoa;Mid its vielnitY. tilt there
exist reasons BUR more potent to which Gen.
LOGAN has not alluded. The atmosphere
of Washington,:at no season very salutary,
becomesin the Sumner , very tit and, op, .
preSsive. Ida peculiarly so to representatives
from the Micidle an ifor44ern ;States,-so
much so that the public business,
,in the lat
ter half of each long session, is very often
made" to, iiitreic in the impatience? of
members tci escape from confinement. The
Capitol, if everremoved, shotild be rebuilt
near enough to the Mississippi Valley to ap
proximate the centre of population of
the Union, and, far enough to the
North to ensure all the climatic con
ditions of health and comfort
Miles, more or less, added to the,
distanceeeparating the seat of the National
• Government from those'great _Eastern cities
which to-day control quite too much the
making aad administering of the laws,
would prove of material advantage to the
interests of the people. The reasons as.
signed by Gen. LOGAN are also entitled to
great weight. A. region which was main
.tamed in subjection to the Federal authority ,
Only by, Federal Bayonets, Which is inhab
ited to-day by people nine -tenths of whom
remain as much as ever friends to the ' "lost
cause," which caressed and instigated the
assassin of LINCOLN, facilitated his escape,
harbored him from pursuit and laments,his
wretched fate,-,—tbis is not the region which
loyal Americans would select to-ilay for
the seat of their Malone! Government.
The item of expense, therefore, is the sole
one to be considered, in this proposition for
a reinciral, and if the 'colit can be defrayed
without any Mx on , the Treasury, we should
support General. Locales Proposition most
heartily.
THE DEMOCRACY.
The party of Treason known its the
Democratic party, finding it impossible to
ride into power under the leadership of any
of their own great lights of the VALLAND
IGHAM, SEYMOUR or PENDLETON stripe,
are now busy looking about for an old line
Abolitionist and negro-suffrage man to head
their Presidential ticket,, and they think
they 'have hit upon Just the man they
•want in the person of S. P. CHASE, the
great Republicansore-head, -with the hope
that, With the many Republican votes they
say he will carry, the black vote and the
Copperhead vote, he would ride into the
White House. But this cannot be, for, in
- the first place;Republicans etinnet be found
supporting a renegade of their party
! ning under "Copperlfeati - influence. They
l ' - know that, even if it were possible that
i - such an one could be elected, the patronage
of the government would be conferred upon
Ceyperheads and rebels.
But the Republicans are not to be de
! ceived by any such transparent treachery.
The Republicans know that all the Demo_?
crats care about is power and the stealings
1 of Office; they know that ever since A. J.
i became the President the Democratic party
has had the stealuigs on a scale
of
=gni
! judo unsurpassed in the history of' the most
corrupt.government the sun of heaven over
I shone upon. The people learnt long since
I not to trust the infernally corrupt Demo-
I erotic party, and, they stick to the habit, and
as longas the' min shines, no earnest; sin
! cere Republican will ever cast a vote for a
i Democrat. No; no ! they are too well
j known. Republicans cannot quite forget
the three great, dark years of treason, re
bellion and murder; they have not forgotten
when they had to tight Democratic traitors
at honte, and Democratic traitors composing
,the rebel army hi the, front. •

BELLING .LIQUOR ON SUNDAY. , '
Toseiffi F. D. Beating, hotel keeper atz
E:errysville was placed on trial for selling`
liquor on Sunday, September Bth, - 1867.
Officer Higby testified to the fact of liquor
being drank on the prelidses on the day
stated; it was furnished' by a man who was
acting 'ln the capacity of bar-keeper; wit
ness did not see Mr. Keating about the
premises at the time. A Mrs. Smith, col-'
ored, testified that she and her husband
were employed at the Keating's hotel, 'and
that she left on the 3d of May, 1887, to 'go
east, and had not been at' Beatings since.
There being a count in the indictment
charging - the defendant with know—
ingly allowing liquor to be drank on his'
premises, Col. Daft; District Attorney, pro
posed to ask witness as to her knowledge
whether the bar was kept open on Sun-'
days during her residence at Keat
ing's hotel. Mr. Cciehran, for the de
fense, objected, but the Court overruled the
objection. Witneselcould not say positive
ly
whether or not liquor was sold On the
Sabbath day; the bar- room was closed on .
Sundays; on one occasion. kit ch eny,
Mr. Ifeatine came into thewith a
pitcher of ile and gave her a drink of it;
parties came on Sundays for Meals. but
there was no liquor served in the dining.'
room; w
ar could not say
beinganspired
in the p-room, her duties confined
to the kitchen. This was all the evidence
in the case. It was held by the Court that
there could be no convietlow on the first
count eharging the defendant wittehaving
sold liquor on aspecific day, in the absence
of any evidence that the liquor was`-fur
nished with the knowledge otdefendant or
that he directed or Caused it to . bezarmabed.,
The evidence offered on the second 'eottnt'
did not seem sufficient to establish, infer
&wally, the knowledge or consent, remit
