That model Democratic censor, Greeley,

secession character. Then it won't suit him
long, ,for he is the ablest advocate . of seces

Mr. Greeley has retL Jm the Tram?le

need not mourn asthose without hope; they
will get their favorite editor back again in
November.
The Alttutga Chief of last•week hoists the

in a very critical state of health. This dose
will probably soon put it out of misery.
Last week the Texas Republican Conven

we believe every Republican Convention
held since the Cincinnati splurge has done
the same thing. Haven't any of these gen

How often has Mr. Greeley ,applauded
that noble sentiment of Henry Clay, " It is
better to be right than to ho President!"—

The N,!ew York Democrats held their State
Convention at Rochester last Wednesday
and Thursday, and had a very serious time
over the conundrum which is just now puz
zling that party of easy Ivigue, to wit: "Shall
we indorse the feroclou4 abolitionist and
notectionist,
otectionist, Greeley, or stand by our own
winciples?" They 'finally resolved that
16y were ready to co-operate with those
3.1-ho fssor limited and localized govern
ineuts--the old heresy of State rights under
a new name—wisp aeek to restrain the exer
cise by Congress of absolute and general
powers, to restrain the growth of vast cor
porations, and to .work a permanent civil
ews of eaten
nati platform a pretty ood thing, and in
structed' their delegates to Baltimore to take
the course best calculated to secure the tri
umph of its principles, -" and the selection
of any candidates representing them who
shall meet the approval of the Democracy
.NatigtitALCo_nientlobled."!__These
are rather ambiguous, but very safe instruc
tions. No doubt they are intended to favor
Greeley, and the Tribune interprets them in
thtlt sense:
The President lust week sent to the Sen.
ate a new article to the Treaty Of Washing
ton proposed by the British 3inistry, and
requested an expression of that bbdy as to
he propriety of its ladoption. This course
of asking the Senate's opinion of a treaty
before it is formally negotiated is very unu
sual, although not without precedent. But
we are glad it has been adopted in this case,
for the State Department has worked itself
into such a muddle that it seems hopeless
to expect it Will ever get 'out without help.
We trust the Senate will promptly reject the
proposed new article; for, as we read it, it
is a most dishonorable surrender of our case
to Great Britain. Mr. Gladstone has alrea
dy publicly congratulated himself and the
House of Commons on the certain ratifica
tion of what be justly calls " the letter of
our /English) views,"' and has been reward
ed with loud and repeated cheers from all
parts of the House fur his successful bam
boozling of the Yankees: It Is almost too
much to hope that those cheers will startle
the sleepy State Department; but we trust
they a ill be heard in the Senate, and will
there hear their legitimate fruit. Our• Gov
ernment was insulted early in February by
the public imputation of bad faith in pre
senting the claims for indirect damages, and
that insult has just been repeated by Mr.
Gladstone in his deliberate speech to the
Commons. We don't know' how much more
of this sort of thing our authorities propose
to swallow for the sake Of saving a treaty
for which the body of the people really care
nothing at all;, but we arc very sure that it
will not do to presume much farther on the
good nature of the country. The Adminis
tration can hardly afford to make this sur
render now, even if the Senate is willing to
share the infamy of it—as we trust it is not.
One of the most significant , recent politi
cal events was the speech of Daniel` W.
Voorhee's of ybdiana in the Ilouse of Rep
resentatives last week Monday. Everybody
who knows anything of Atherican politics
knows that Mr. Voorhees is a Democrat of
the Democrats—one of the original, simon
pure, dyed-in-the-wool patty leaders, ,who
stood unflinchingly by the party standard
all through the war, and has never faltered
in proclaiming the most advanced party
dogmas. It would seem that such a man
has some authority to speak for the Democ
racy, and it is -certain that his word will
have not a little weight in his own State,
notwithstanding the abuse that is heaped
upon him by tricky Eastern leaders of his
political faith. Ho protests that he Is not
ready to trade off his Democratic principles
for a few bolters' votes, and he reviews the
career of Horace Greeley, for whom he is
urged to vote, with a truthfulness and vigor
that must open many Democratic eyes that
have bean lately closed to, everything but
i
the hope of success. Could be vote for a
man who was a life-long champ nof every
doctrine to which Democrats are opposed?
for the most clamorous advocate of linklux
legislation? for a man who recently 'urged
an esOnsion of the President's power to
suspend the habeas corpus ? for a man who
had lately wished to place Northern elec
tions under military control? Was he call
ed upon to vote for a man who advortntr , d
the right of secession? who, when the South'.
ern people did what he told them they bad
the right to do, screamed for their blood?
who, not satisfied with their blood, had in
sisted' on the confiscation of their homes
and property? Was such a man fit to re
ceive his vote, or to be President? These
were Mr. Voorhees's questions; and the only
answer to them on the floor of the House
was the insinuation that he had been bribed
by the Administration! And Greeley's
Democratic organs assure us that he is "a
blatherskite" and a- marplot, Perhaps so;
but Mr. 'Voorhees's questions remain unan
swered re by himself, and every Demo
crat who!) has the least faith in his own pro
fessions must see that they are pertinent.—
Baltimore may indorse Greeley; but in that
event there will be many thousand " blath
erskites" who will refuse to be transferred,
as Mr. Voorhees now does.
The French Arms Fizzle.
It is now more than two months since the
investigation of the alleged sale of arms to
the French was entered upon by the special
committee of the Senate, and at last we
have the conclusion of their labors in the
shape of reports by the majority and minor
ity. The nature of the reports has been so
plainly foreseen from the course of the in
vestigation that their actual presentation has
excited little comment. But they merit
careful consideration, because of the nature
of the, charges investigated, the mon by
whoM those charges were made, and the
motives which prompted them.
The charge was, in plain language, that
the President, or at least the Administra
tion, had, during the late war between Prus
sia and France, sold arms to the latter pow
er in violation of Our international obliga
tions as neutrals, 'and in contravention of
our own statutes; Mal l the money received
for the. same by the War Department had
not all been accounted for, and it wasinsin ;%
tutted that officers of the Government high
in position had been guilty of corrupt
with the agents of France, one of whom
had at that time been convicted at home for
(I.tranding his own Government in the tran
t.actimi. Before these charges were fairly
pret-cnted to the country in Mr. Summer's
1. - iided preamble, the second one—
tho War Office had not accounted to
the Treasury for the funds received—was
necessarily withdrawn, for it was found
ihi , re was no such discrepancy between the
accounts of the two Departments as alleged.
The prompt discovery of this blunder in
Mr. Stnner's " indictment" was, of course,
rather damaging to his whole case, but the
need of some injUrious attack upon the Ad
ministration Was pressing, and It was re
solved to make the most of what was left.
The eltyctions in New Hampshire and Con
necticut were approaching, and it was felt
that something must be done to break the'
Administration ranks in those States. So
Messrs. Sumner and - Schurz went to work
to convince the country' that the Adminis
tration had been gt;lity of offenses toward
Prussia which that wide-awake power had
'never discovered, or of which at least it bad
never complained. I So the Senate was turn
ed into a debating club, and week after
week the public . business waited while we
were treated to windy arguments to prove
the charges made. -The case was first sum
med up, and then the evidence was taken;
and the results of this strange procedure
might have been anticipated—the jury didn't
believe the tutuments, and the proof over
turns them entirely. New Hampshire and
Connecticut declared for Grant, anti now
the committee report that the charges were
without foundation—that they were based
The m I
ajority report 'sets out by saying
that aIV the witnesses fully s answered the
question put to them except Senators Sum
ner and iSchurzs-' They then procee
, to re
view the protest of the latter S.euat r, ntid
administer a stinging rebuke to his preteu
-sb ss ss..-Thestscannot -refrain from express
ing astonishment that a Senator should seek
to clothe himself with the imutunitiei which
pertained-in ancienttimes to person of cer
tain rank or caste, since it has beenl{lte pur
pose of the legislation of Congress ' for the
past ten years to abolish caste, and t's make
all citizens, 'without regard to station, color,
or previous fondition, equal before the law,
and equally amenable to its operations. For
&Senator now tp invoke the . artificiial and
arbitrary immunities belonging . t feudal
days, and resting upon monarchical print
pies and the existence of caste in society, is
to ignore the fundamental idea of as repub
lie that the officer is the servant of ale' peo
ple, and responsible to the law equally with
other citizens. Disobedience to any consti
tutional act of .Congress is a crime; hut
when committed by a Senator it involves
also a contempt of the body of whicklie is
a member. In view of these considerations,
We committee believe that a sublime was
properly issued to Senator Sumner, that he
was bound to obey it and to testify, and
that his refusal to answee questions which
Were put to him cannot be justified.
With regard to the sales of ordnam e
stores by the Government, the committee
report that they can say, after the must thor
ough tad impartial investigation, that there
is nothing in the transactions which reflects
discredit either upon the country or any of
its officers. Thiy find that tI4- sales ,were
made according to the settled construction
of the statute in the War Department, with
results exceedingly favorable to the Govern
ment. They were conducted openly and .
fairly, and the,; prices received were higher
than could have been expected, { and Innen
higher than the same stores now command.
To this effect is the testimony of every eotn :
patent witness upow the subject. There is
nothing in the conduct of the Seteretary of
War or his subordinates deserving censure
in this respect. ,
Tile committee then proceed to discuss
the question whether fhe sales were made ,
under such circumstances AS to violate the
obligations of the United States as a neutral
power, pending the war between France
and Germany. After quoting the principles
of international law, they.say„thaftongress,
by the act of 1868, directed the Strauss- to
dispose of these arms and stores, and the
Government, being engaged in such sales
prior to the war between France and Ger
many, had a tight to continue the sale du
ring the war, ' and" might,i in the city of
Washington, have sold and delivered any
amount of such stores to Frederick William
or Louis Napoleon in person without viola.
ting the obligations of neutrality, provided
such sales were made in good faith, not for
the purpose of influencing the strife, but in
the execution of the lawful purpose of the
Government to sell its surplus arms and
stores. The conuititteeithen proceed to con
sider the circumstances under which the
sales were made, and Come to the conclusion
that there was no violation of the obliga
tions of our Governfnent as a neutral pow
er. They report that there is not the slight
est foundation for even a suspicion that any
officer of the Government derived any ad
vantages from these sales,
So much for the main question; but the
most interesting part of the story remains
to be told. The committee say an exami
nation
of the testimony cannot fail to pro
duce the impression that the Marquis de
ce......v. tau as toe source ormrthe aspersions
which have been thrown upon our Govern
ment, and the suspicions which have been
I east upon its officials. This man seems to
be an understrapper of the French age
don, and is a relative of the late Consul
General of France at New York, the man
of whom we spoke above as having been
convicted of defrauding his own Govern
ment. It is hard to tell just what this French
adventurer's purpose was; but he probably
started these charges in hopes to affect fa
vorably the trial of his friend and relative
in France. If he was not a serviceable
friend, at least he was a zealous one, for it
is certain that belabored long to bring about
this investigation. Having applied in vain
to Senator Patterson and Secretary Belknap,
he at length had recourse to Schurz and
Sumner. Here he found willing Instil
mints. He furnished to Mr. Sumner the
letter from Remington to Le Cesne, although
lisessaftawards lied about it to Secretary
Boutwelolenytng that he had done so. It
will be remembered that this letter was one
of the principaLinducements to the Intro
duction of Sumner's resolution. Another
inducement was the supposetl discrepancy
between the accounts of the War and Trea
sury Departments in regard to these sales,
which turns out never to have existed. Yet
another was a pretended resolution of the
French Assembly, or some committee there
of, which, it appears, never was passed.
Had Senators Sumner and Schurz applied
to the Departments for information on this
subject, with the, slight inconvenience of
five minutes' walk, they would have learned
all the material facts which it has cost the
Government thousands of dollars to taw
tain by this investigation. They would
have learned that there wes'notSiscrepancy
between the- accounts• of - the two Depart
ments, and that there was no fraud nor vio
lation of law in these sales; but in that ease
M. Chambrun would have failed in his ef
forts to use the Senate as en instrument for
obtaining testimony to vindicate his friend,
M. Place, and the opportunity to cast owl
don upon and raise a scandal- against the
executive adminispntion of our Govern
ment would have been lost. These are the
words of the committee; and we submit
that they are as just as they are severe. No
true American can contemplate this picture
of Charles Sumner intriguing and conspi;
ring with this unknown, lying French ad
'venturer to defame his own countrymen and
dishonor his own Government without some
sense of shame and humiliation.
The committee close by saying that there
is no doubt the Government could ,arm a
million of men ha fast as they could be rais
ed and organized to receive anus, and that
the sales under consideration -have not seri
on sly impaired the defensive capacity of the
country in time of war. Senator Steven
son, who makes the minority report, thinks
that in some cases the strict letter of the
law has been violated by these sales, though
he admits that the construction put upon
the statute by the present Secretary is the
same as that of his predecessors. He thinks
the officers making the sales did not use due
diligence to find out for whom the arm
were purchased, And he is of the opinion
that those aficerS deserve cenSlle ;for their
negligence. But he does not in ittq le.enP47
impeach the Presidept, the Administration,
or the War Department, anti he •el.oscs pis
,report in this thorough-going style; "The
testimony fails to disclose any corruption or
improper conduct on the part of any officer
or other employe of the Governmentln the

he is expected to bring 'to Democratic

match is the expected mar portion; and
if it should appear on exa ion that this
ut .
has been overstated, the ;S would cer-

"In 1870 Mr. Greeley ran for Congress in

The fact that he was beaten proves nothing

The only office to which Mr. Greeley was
ever elected since he has _been a Republi
can, was that of member of the Constitu
tional Convention in 1867;, but defeat was
then impossible for any candidate of either
party on the respective tickets at large, the
Legislature having{ arranged that both tick
ets of sixteen should be infallibly 'eyeted
whether they got many votes or few.
" The expediency of nominating Mr.
Greeley (self-respect, principles and politi
cal consistency apart) depends upon this
simple consideration: whether more Repub
lican votes will be gained than' Democratic
votes repelled, There arc Democrats who
will not yote for him In any event, not even
under the constraint of the Baltimore nom
ination, if he should get it.- The, extracts
which 'We printl this morning from the
Catholic organs show that, the Irish reli
gious influence will never be reconciled to
him. A large section of the German Dem
ocrats will never accept him. More impor
tant than all, multitudes of Democrats who
prefer principles to expediency . have already
made np their minds to bolt the Baltimore
ticket if - the Convention nominates Greeley.
With our present data for
.forecasting the
situation, we have no doubt that Mr. Gree
ley's nomination at Baltimore would drive
away two Democrats for every, Republican
that will follow Mr. Greeley in a Democrat
ic alliance."
OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
WASHINGTON, May 16, 1872,
DAN VOORHEES AND GREELEY
The stale, flat and unprofitable talk which
always characterizes the tariff discussion
land the ordinary routine of business was
btoken into by Mr. Voorhees, who, under
the pretext of a personal explanation, fired
a red-hot shot of no ordinary caliber into
the Greeley camp. His remarks are chiefly
:valuable in their exposure -of . the. political
vulnerability of Horace o.6eley,' should he
become the joint nominee . of. the regular
and assist tuttnettocratic patties. .They will
find that there is not anotlier: than in the
whole country upon wit= so ninny contra
dictions can be fastened, and who has boon
guilty of more political heresy: It Is easy
enough to run . a candidate ap long ap no oth,,
er has entered the race, but when all the;
conventions have made their nominations,
and the political canvass opens in earnest,
the Greeleyites will be exposed to a running
fire that will keep them on the defensive du
rfgn the entire campaign. ,
Voorhees's speech has given the Demo,
crats a mere inkling of the indefensible po
sition which they will assume 'when they
put forward as their standard bearer one
with whom they have nothing in common,
and who has abused them as a party and na
individuals more than other writer in
the country. r
Greeley has painted th , character of the
Democracy, his future cinstituents, with a
pen dipped in gall and w'rmwood.

Mr. Greeley's un •xpected nomination
seems to have turned is usually level head.
He certainly strikes q itp wild here. That
Gov. Fenton came to Cincinnati in the Da
vis intrigue is too plain to those who know
the history of this Week's contest for the
Cincinnati nomination to admit ,of a doubt.
That he fled back to Washington when he
found that it was' discovered and broken up,
and that he must con ront the question of

of the week's history nn ....... .. ,

1
But It is true that ItT4 Greeley's friends suf
fered from two annoyances: First, that
Gov. Fenton came h4re at all; and second,
that he went away Set suddenly and secretly;
and the motives of Ili s flight were the occa
sion of grave suspiei n among even the New
York delegation.l hr. Greeley owes it first
i:
to those who boldly hrew themselves into
the arena and sa ed . the Davis job that
had been so industriusly put up at
iWash
ington, and in Row York and Penns,ylva-
TIM and Illinois, alt deep in which were
some of those who were professing to be
Mr. Greeley's earnes friends and advocates;
and second, he owes it to the appearance of
Frank P. Blair and ratz Brown upon the
ground'on the last ay, breaking into and
i i
dividing the ranks f the revenue reform
ers- and carrying oft a portion of them to
the great heio and a vdeate. of Protection,
added, of course, to his own high personal
qualities and popula -ity, and the deep hold
he has acquired upon the hearts' f the peo•
pie of the South and West. But with his
usual perversity Of temper and openness to
flattery, Mr. Greeley ) will probably continue
to give his faith an attribute his success to
