Twaoaa. v FRIIMT -APRIL U, 1871. AlPOLITIOAL ANOMALY, k remarkable feature of the Radi cal party is arorping out all over tire country at the present time, and that is their acknowledgement of the cor ruptions and extraragence.t of their leaders, aad their utter indifference to such a eourse upon the part of those irho are the custodians of pub lic affairs. "When askod what has be come of the Test sums of money taken from the Tnnl fn iL. ilinn of taxation in various ways, within the last tea raars. th.T will frantic I wuyom tatt no amaii aaotofit goetlafc ike pockets, of the ofSee holdeta and poiitleal favorite, in some shape.

Taty eve also free to say that the ItfiakiMen of the oooatrv, einoe the lUCieals eame into potrer, has l)eea in the interest ef ewplial and k not far the people or the business ta tereits el the eouatry. That by means ef each legislation, more for tunes hare been piled up out of the -earmlnc e the people than aver be fore amee fee fenmdation of the g5r rnment, and that the rich are con stantly growing rieher and the poor ' poorer. They will freely confess that the action ef Congress in regard to reeonatrneiioa in the South, is for ihe purpose of keeping thai section of the eonntry in sabjeotioa and themselrea in power.' Sere sa eeoadonal publio pap suekeT, Eke the Oreyonian editor, they do not try to defend the ndnun- utretioei ef Grant in any shape or way that we know of. This is cer tainly an anomaly in polities, and shows a rery strange eoadition of the publie mind at this time in regard to the political affairs of the country. It shows not only an entire lose of .apndenee in Grant's administration, -but Ad flxsd riews as to the f autre. "It is tra that many are leering the party with which they hare al ways neted, being ftliij conrinced of its entire rotienness and tha necessi ty of a change in order to effect the reforms absolutely needed to save the country aad the -people from ruin. Bat there are others, while they freely acknowledge that their party is as corrupt ae it can possibly be, still cling to it like a djing man to life. "We hare hope, however, that "for "beamnce will cease to be a virtue" in tho near future, eren with many of the ; present adherents of that rotten par- - ij, and that erentually they will"caet - their lines in pleasant places" with - the Democratic or People's Party. "VTe beliere that next year will wit- : ness a mighty exodus from tho Xtadi cal ranks, and that in November, 1872, the sun of its destiny will set, never more to rise.

It snows tbe baseness of the charges that used to be mode against the South that the North had to carry it, and the sooner we were rid of it the better.

USUBFATIOJr. Uusurpation, as a usual thing i gradual in its aggression. Ita ad vances are made little by little. Each wrongful exertion of power is so trifling in itself that the great pop ular mind takes no alarm; forgetful that these little stretches, these seemingly insignificant aggressions, each so minute in itself, are aggregat ing a mighty mass of power in the hand that has committed them. Some day the terrible discovery is made that the thousand filaments, each so weak in itself, combine to form a cord strong enough to fetter the of people. This is ti7 ow mating. the One act of usurpation in the Fed oral pou-er at Washington has suo oeeded another all looking te con solidationall wresting ; authority from the States and the people until at last despotism fools strong enough to send a mercenary gang of soldiers to New York to compel the eleotion of its own tooli and minions to office.

Do you see how State Bights involve local rights, personal rights and personal liberty? PUB WABHIBQTOJiLSTTEB. Washington, D. C, Mar. 25, 1S71. . The agony is over, and Congress will not adjourn verv soon. The in dependence of the Radicals in Con greesis portrayed very plainly in their recent action on the questions of ad journment and legislation for the South. For three weeks pasta large number of them have spoken and voted against legislation for the South during this seesion. The instant that the President sends a few lines into Congress asking for legislation upon that subject there is almost a breaking of necks to see which of the ref rac tory Radicals can be first to bend their head to hja decree, for such they understand it to be. Only one General Farnsworth had the dar- ing to stick by what he said. "When Ben. Sutler saw !&ine, Dawes, Gar field and others, who had assailed him for his position, wheeling into line at the crack of the President's whip, he chuckled aloud at his tri uxnph. The President and Morton wanted to send in a message on the pattern of Butler's bill, but Shella barger said that the Democrats would never consent to its passage end to n,a present message was framed TJj cJimittee who were selected to form a bJ yesterday but could writ ftrtTnm tnrr a5Treement: they will meet ain on MoiayV The Demo crats on the committee ctff object to any measure which confers aQwitiC?l power on the President to use ti army and navy to carry out his polit ical designs against the South. . The Sumner-Grant fight is pro gressing nicely in the Senate. There are very few of the President's friends who wish to make open assault upon the Massachusetts martyr, as they fear the consequences at home, but they rote against him. To Morton and Conkling, especially, has the task of attacking Sumner been delegated. Morton has uttered a few sonorous growls during the past few days, but Conkling has been barking at Sumner Hke a little poodle dog at the heels of a mastiff. On Thursday, the at tempt choke him down when he desired to read his San Domingo res olutions, which failed, is thus spoken of by VixeTrCbune: "If Mr. Sumner's resolutions are to be answered, it will net 1)0 by sheer force of lungs, wherewith his opponents yesterday sought to bellow him down. It is a pity that a Senator from New York should need to be told that, in that style of performance, any jackass can surpass him '. 5reeley is sharp on his friend Conkling. Yesterday Mr. Conkling again objected to the recep tion of Mr. Sumner's resolution. Af ter considerable discussion the point of order was laid on the table. Mr. Sumner notified the Senate that on Monday he would move the resolu tion' of Mr. Sherman, now pending, and that he would then speak on the resolutions. Conkling, I who had grown conscious that he had made a goose of himself for ' the 1 past two days, desired to state that hi? objec tion was to preserve the rule adopted ; the Senate, and that he had no objection to that particular resolution moxe lhauany other, and that should any Senator nak for unanimous con sent to introduce a .resolution, he would be the last one to object. Conkling did' not much improve his position, as ha looked "for all the world" like a man who was lying to get out of a fccrapa, but Mr. Sumner shrewdly look him at his word and congratuled in josting tones the Sen- j ate on the era of good feeling inau guratcd by tho Senator from New York, and to the consternation of Mr. Conkling and his friends asked unan imous leave to introduce his resolutions as a separate matter. ' Conkling had gone too far to retreat; he had seriously blundered. There was an almost painful silence while the Vice Presi dent wan tod to hotr if there was an objection ; not one voice to save the blonde daxdy, who completely wilted when the resolutions were received Sumner's face was radiantly triumph ant, Morton looked as if he had re coived an attack of jaundice. The anti -Grant San Domingo Senators were quite tioklod; even Conkling's friends could not help smiling at his blunder and the ready use made of it by Sumner. The galleries testified their delight by loud applause. This was gall and wormwood to the dandy Coukling, who thinks he is an AdouU, and that he fills the eye of every lady who jrsxes down on the assembled wisdom of the Senate.- Sumner proposes to open the war on the Administration on Monday in his speech oa the Southern outrages, and he will show that violations of the law have extended in high places as well, not only in the relations of the present administration of this eouatrr. but ia the enforcement of the pretended foreign policy on weak and defenceless people through the naval power of the government. There's fun ahead, and Sumner will be the head devil. On Thursday Mr, George W. Holmes, Jr.. General Agent M. S. for the "Check Puncturing & had his machines before Treasurer Spinner and the official of his de partment. After several hours of the ssverest tests Mr. Spinnerdetermi&ed to adopt them for use- in the Treas ury, and warmly recommended their use to the publie on government bonds and securities as an effectual safeguard against tbe . alteration of names and numbers in bonds which may have been lost or stolen The raising of checks from smaller to larger amounts is the latest and most dangerous kind of forgery, and one which, until the introduction of this machine, there has been no protection against. This invention is of great public importance. Sumner will have another chance to howl against Grant, as his Com missioners to San Domingo did not regard the negroes, Fred Douglaw & Son, as social equals, and in eon sequence Fred A Son feel very much aggrieved. Captain Temple, of the Tennessee, took them in and shared his cabin with them, or else they would have fared no better than if they had been barbers or servants This outrage against the loth amend ment demands an investigation. Call for one, Sumner, and go for the bug hunters and annexationists for dis loilty. J.H. A Sterlixo "Patbiot." We have received in exchange the "Washing ton City Patriot, a new and elegant looking Democratio paper, with the following sterling platform of princi ples: "The Patriot' will advocate a prompt and perfect restoration of the Union In all it parts and tta entire In tegrity; equality among the Btatcs as prescribed br the Conntitution: tha immediate removal of all disabilities resulting from the Civil War, and tho restoration of harmony and fraternal fellowship between all sections of the country, which tbe abuses and usurpa tions of partisan power have criminally ored to prevent: A rrilT for revenue to cover tho ex- nengures- of an econmlcal Adminis tration, aCdto meet tho just obligations of the Ooverm- ut opposed to tho existing system P' exorbitant protec tion for special monorolic .and undis guised partiality for favored manufac turers: Reduction of the present dUow ancl oppressive scale or taxation, botii applied to duties on Imports and to Internal revenue: Rigid economy Jn every department of the Government and retrenchment of the expenses: Reform of the public serv ice In all Its branches, Civil.

It is intended to publish a newspaper of the first class, and to enlist the best available talent in all its departments. "See Pabis amd Die."

It wss a decided Dotnooratlo vic tory, woo, aot by fores ot numbers, but by strategy. It was the first break In a loug ohaio of impositions and robbor ics, praotioed upon tbo people by a Re publican Congress." The Portland Herald speaks thus eloquently aod truthfully of "our own Oregon:" "The fact is becoming known throughout the Kat and Europe that Oregon is the wealthiest State in the lnion. It poHesees all the elements necesxary to support a large population; millions of acres of the finest land in the world, which only await tbe hand of the huabandman to teem with rdenteousncss: immense forests, useful for building purposes anu tbe construction of ships: an ox tensive range of prairie land for stock raising or grazing, upon which cattlo can thrive the yoar aroun. without requiring even a thought from their owners: and a largo area of the richest mineral lands, which are as yet in their pnmativo state and only await the aid of capital to produce the best and most varied as sortmcnt of minerals. llio magnificent Uolumuia river alone will support a large population of hardy fishermen. Tho mountains and valleys abound in game of al varietios, from tbe bounding roebuck to the quail, snipe and grouso, and the streams teem with trout of al sorts. Tho climate is also mild and healthy, and Oregon has leas sick ness within its borders than any btate m tho union, bchools am churches aro springing up in every hamlet, so that families can furnish their children a good education, and receive the consolations of their re ligion. When theso facts are thorough ly Known a large lmragration wil flock thhtther from all parts of tho United States and Europe, and from present indications tbe influx will commence soon.
