viriAar OF THE , giBLOWTENTO,
Senator &inner has Written a letter to the
New York Independent favoring the past Age
of a law by Congress extending suffrage to
negroeS in all the States. Abotit a year ago
he intmduced a - bill in the Senate* to accom
plish this purpose, but that bocly'al that time
had enough of respect for the Constitution
and the rights of the States to promptly vote
down the proposition,
It is by no means certain that a bill of the
kind named will not be carried at the next
session of Congress, us the reasons given by
Sumner for its passage are the ones which
have controlled the entire Radical legislation.
He 'thinks the negro r t ote essential to the
safety of - the - good cause." Let this barnacle
satisfactorily to appear to the .majorit: , in
Congress; and.no prohibitions of the Consti
tution will be permitted to obstruct the pas-.
sage of such a measure. The figures of Sum
ner on this point present very strong induce
ments to the radicals to attempt the enfran
chisement ,of the blacks in the north, re
gardless of State laws prescribing The quali
fications of electors, Ile claims that the ne
gr, o rote in New York, Pennsylvania, Mary
land Conneeticut would " fix " those States
on the "side of human rights forever." The
States named are the ones which the Radi
cals fear will give Democratic majorities in
North at the next Presidential election. As .
the South will probably re-organize Under
the reconstruction billS so that no question
can be made of her right to vote for the next
President, nudes without doubt her vote will
be given as a unit against the Radical candi
date, Mr. Sumner sees that "the good "cause"
will inevitablygo down unlet.4- sonie,arnmge
ment can be made to " tix " the States named
on " the side of human rights."
THE -lIIIPEACHIEMIT FIASCO.
Washington telegram announces the end
of the investigation to impeach the President.
Four ont - of trine members of the committee
were in favor of impeachment, and five mem
bers, of whom three were Radicals, were op
posed to it, Ind so the motion to impeach was
lffst . A resoluticm was even offered' to the
effect. that President JOhnson is "unworthy
of the , c'onfideirce of the people," and this
was adopted by a strict party vote. §o An
drew Johnson goes down in history as hav
ing beeilpronouneed by Boutwell of 31sqsa
chusetts, and six other Radicals, five of whom
at least arc nearly a.q„obscure as Boutwell, as
"unworthy- of the confidence, of the people."
The committee has been in session several
months-'—the investigation hai covered ; the
President's , privatC bank account, his clothes
andwashingbills, and the cooks and scullions
of the White 'House have been examined for
evidence as to what and how much the Presi
dent ate and. drunk. , And it all tunis up in a
formal announcement by Boutwell tit, Com
pany that the President is "unworthy of
confidence." Whether nth?. is intended as a
warning to the President's banker, or his
tailor, or his washerwoman, does not appear,
but it unquestionably means that he is un
worthy of the confidence of Boutwell, Ash
ley,`Butler, and other similar impeachers, and
if he were worthy of such confidence, there
Might be reason, as some of the Radleals
now:Propose,for reiivinethe project so as'
to render impeachment probable, if not cer
tain.

,o , ,
It is a contemptible nclusion of a raas
contemptible : If these investigators,
who have penetrated pantries andsearched
the very sewers for evidence against the Pres
ident, can find nothingheyend a warrant for
the . general statement that he is " unWorthy
of the confidence" of Bontwell and Butler,
the nubile Will come to theconciusion that
the iinpeachnient party, which .promised to
prove flat the: President was a conspirator
in the assassination, and was guilty of other
crimes,:aad which fails to find, after earnest
search, testimony enough to convict him of
drittking,*Urhon, is worthy of As litde con-
fidence as' Boutwell & Company award to
Mr. Johnion." Thee men, have -infinnonsly
4iiled with the people; and rozkv they propose
to add insult tiapjury by,publishing, at pub
eipense, a report, embracing a ni,ass of
trash and filth they have collceted in thdshape

IGNORANT ieITIZENS.
The Tribune, treating the subject of polit
ical missiomuies'of the Xelley school, says:
"The Eicitlthena blacks are mainly ig,nomnt

tion of .the law of force ;'they have not been

their experience does not - accord with the

This exhibit, the Ledger admits, is very
imperfect and far short of the actual Increase
of the public debt in the several States in the
time named. There arc debts of boroughs,
of towns and of counties that have, no doubt,
not been taken into the above account. Yet
the amount gives the 'very large increase of
$2lO, 530,892, and of . this amout in six: years
but $8,299,150 has been reduced, and that re
duction is confined to five of the richest States
in the Union. This, added to the National
debt of over two thousand five hundred
millions, and .. both items considered
in this , Connection with the fact • of
tLe sloWProgiess made in the reduction of
either, presgata food fir. serious contempla
tion. As collaterarsubjecta in this connec
' don Worthy's passing thought, may be men
tioned the heavy additional claims on the
Treasury on account of bounties, the inau:
guration of what promises to be a rather
formidable Indian war,- and evidence in the
reduced revenues from income that taxation
has passed the maximum point. There is
nothing truer in political economy than that
there Is a limit beyond which taxatipn can
not be carried. Facts and figures indicate that
that point juts been reached in tlio United
States.. The future would be more cheerful
tinder our load of debt, State and National,
if prices of almost all the necessaries• of life
were not increased from 50 to 100 per cent.,
and, in a great degree, through the agency of
a vitiated currency. Indeed, the prices of
some of the. substantials 'of life—flour, rice,
molasses, etc., hate increased dime fold. Un
der such burdens it is impossible that domes
tic labor can profitably compete with other
nations for the market of the world.
The price of flour, sixteen to nineteen dol
lam per barrel is attracting serious - attention
"at home." EVerybody is inquiring of his
neighbor, why is this? But never once is
given a satisfactory answer. Strikes for
"wages" or "time" are of almost daily oc
currence, with co responding resistance on
the part of employ as. In the coal regions,
as almost everywhere else, there is more or
less interruption in consequence of these
troubles. The prt.e.rit condition of the trade
does not warrant the payment of the
wages of last year, while the high price of
nearly hll the articles of living requires the
largest pay of the past to provide the neces
sary food of a fiunily. " Wages cannot conic
' down while the cost of livint , ° keeps up.
While wheat is imported from California,
and flour from Europe, the price, with so
much transportation, must necessarily be
high. Amid all. these" cross-purposes it is
difficult to say where a reform is to begin,
and yet all experience teaches us that the
present condition of affairs cannot continue.
Whenever the United States, which is justly
considered the granary of the world, and un
der a sound system of currency could feed
the civilized world, fails to feed its own peo
ple, and becomes.a purchaser from a - distance,
there is something wrong, and in all the his
tory of, the past, with' stich premonitory
symptoms, the error of 'Mir WaVt near a
development. We do not Mean to say that
ive afe . • approaching a crisis similar to that
which succeeded the importation of wheat .
from the Baltic at $2.50 per bushel in 1837,0 r
the financial Crisis of 1857,which succeeded a
similar inflation of all prices—but the prob
able future is well worth considering. Almost
every day we notice shipments of grain and
flour from abroad. We have before us, taken
ti•orn the marine 'news, notices of .the depar
ture front Liverpool for New York of rive
vessels, Within seven days' time; Cariying
seventy thou.sand, five hundred andnitity
brie bushels of wheat ; anti a in Franeisco .
dispatch, dated within the seven days, says
" Ships Charles Leeling, for Liverpool, with
130,000 sacks 6f Wheat, and Orpheus, for.
Hampton Roads, with 29,000 sacks of wheat
sailed to-day."' These are, freaks in trade
most unnatural, and •can be remedied and
improved only by economy, self-denial end
a Wholesome regeneration of the eurrOncy.
TROUBLE AHEAD.
The Neer York Herald has hitherto been
very good authority with,Radicals. Let them
hearken, then, to the following trail over the
prostrate condition of the country from that
journal:
"We are in great danger. The expenses of
the country are greater than it can safely
bear. The machinery now employed byhe
Government, including the military gove n-
D
.1
ment of the South, tbe, Freedmen's are m
the army of tax gatherers, and the numerous
other expedients for spending money, is four
times as extensive and costly as it was before
'the war. We did not feel it when we were
borrowing money and expending the curren
cy, hut now pay day is at hand. , Lee,itimate
business throughout the North and Wes; is r
in a prostrate condition. Its vitality has been
sapped by taxation. The South is not only
bankrupt, but actually starving. The people
everywhere are suffering from the burdens
heaped upon them. Prices of food, of rents,
of clothing, arc increasing, and our taxes are
growing higher every year.. Our local taxes
are no exception. The -State tax for this
Commonwealth amounts to $5,000,000 this
year, against $3,000,000 last year. The rate
of taxation in this city in the - same time has
risen from $l3 to $l7 on the thousand ; and
the same is true of all the cities and towns
about us. The remedy is in the hands
of the people, and if they do not exercise
it they have no 'right to complain.
But if, they think we- have enjoyed as
'mac es we can afford of such luxuries, we
'call upon them to kick over all abstract dog
mas, and choose servants-who will act Ibr the
best interests of the country. We arc on the
wrong track. Let us change our course be
fore the Ship of State is wrecked upon the
breakers dead ahead." • - 4:

GILEELICY AIitSMnOUI A q,larowsoN
A correspondent, .who thinks ,we possess
plain ."common sense,"' asks us a string of
questions, whereof the gist is as fidlows:
"Is not Jefferson Davis responsible for the
fiendish atrocities, by which our soldiers in
Southern prison-pens, were maimed, broken
down and murdered? Is not Robert E. Lee,
who was; General-in-Chief, responsible also
for the same terrible crime?"
iinewer.—We do 'not know. It certainly,
seems to us that a Committee of Congress
ought to have inquired into the whole mat
ter of the treatment of prisoners of warsince.
It also seems that the "Bureau of Military
Justice," whereof the Hon. Jacob Holt is the
bead (under the general direction of Secre
tary Stanton,)ought long since to have probed
this matter to the core, and had ionetWdy in
dicted, assuming that anybOdy is guilty
beyond those who are now dead. We once
prompted a resolution of inquiry in Con
gress, intended to draw out the material
facts in the premises; but nothing come of it.
Now, then, if our correspondent knows
the facts to be as he supposes, it is his busi
ness to see that the necessary legal proceed
ings are instituted. We suppose the day of
arbitary arrests and "little bells," to be over,
so that men are no longer to be condemned
and punished by arbitrary edict or mob ven
geance. We believe it would not he difficult
to convict and punish any one who shall be;
fairly proved guilty of wanton cruelty to pris
oners of war. Then let us have no more idle
words, but hurry up the necessary intbrma
tion and indietment.—N. Y. Tribune.
