Democracy, of the country are opposed to the 15th Amendment and desire its abrogation .by appropriate legislation, believing that "it was never, legally adopted as a part of the Constitution, and ,that"it destroys the object of that in strument; , because Democrats .' cry out against the recent passage of the infamous Kij-Klux.

Now, can there be revolution in destroying that which never legally existed? Is it revolu tionary tot fight against that which tends to revolutionize? It ceruumy cannot: be. The" Democratic party - has no desire to destroy or subvert any portion of the fundamental law of the land, bat seeks 'only to main tain and defend those principles "nnon which the perfection and en- 1 - 7, . lurance of our political fabric de pends."

The conspiracy against the rights of the States and the privileges of their citizens must have been entered into almost as soon as the Radical party came into power. It has been stead ily and audaciously pursued ever ince,' under cover of amendments -foisted into the Constitution and by etery conceivable pretext with law 'or without it, as the case might be. "While pretending to serve the Constitution and assuming the most 3evpted loyalty to the "Union, they have only used the power with which 'a too credulous people invested them to destroy the equilibrium of the ccordinate branches of the Govern- . UlCLUt wV uio&G ttuo nui vx v.vaj gress the supreme law of the land. In all that they have thus far -attempted and, to a great extent, have succeeded in consummating they have had this work of complete centralization steadily in view. They v have sought to give Congress greater Authority than is exercised by the British Parliament. In that country . there is no written Constitution. In stand in lieu of a written Conttitu stion must be gathered from" the laws; of the realm, limited by Bills cf Hights, by precedents, and, to some extent, .by custom and tradition. In this country the Radicals want to make Congress not only paramount untrammeled even by those restric tions that limit the power of the English Parliament but to establish A new system of government, on principles of their own devising. The Southern system of labor stood in their way, and they have abolished it by force of arms and legislative edicts. The reserved rights of the States stood in their -way, and they have trampled upon them,. They see . in the National; debt a providential institution for the , ing the political adhesion of the men who proclaimed it "a public bless ing of the National banks;, of the entire cpiamunity of untaxed' bond holders; of the manufacturing and mining corporations that grow rich by. a hifirh protective tariff: of the great railway corporations that -have of public lands; of the swarms of office-holders numerous, . almost, as locusts . in Egypt that infest every : State in the .Union, and they have sought ' to . strengthen themselves the, four millions of negroes and ma lattoes whom they have made citizens - and into whose ignorant ' hands they ; have placed the ballot. Daring all this time but more boldly of late they have been con tinuously; engaged in- undermining the reserved rights of the States. In contempt of those rights they have - passed a law that gives them author ity to supervise both State and Fed' era! elections. " They have brought the military to the polls not without rebuke and have" bolstered up their political partisans with a horde of flenntv marshals, armed with revol- it j : ... , . . vers. and. for the most part drawn - from the hireling scum of the cities They .s hare usurped , the power , to grant caartars inside of the States. And now by the infamous Ku-Klux bill, they propose to strip the States of exclusive jurisdiction over crimE- nal offences; to authorize the Presi dent to take military occupation of asy State, not only without waiting for a requisition from its. Governor or , its Jjegisl&ture; bufc,,ia defiance--if he so wills it of. any protest from -r ' the State authorities and to suspend, at his sovereign pleasure, the writ of habeas corpus, and to declare martial law. ' l . , ,. In fine, we are in realityym empire, while in name only a republic! We have a military despot wielding his scepter and vandals executing his mandates. Personal liberty is set at naught and the organic State Laws are entirely ignored, while a Con gressional enactment, in the interests of partizan demands sways the pow er of the Southern States and threat ens their people with its inquisitorial measures. In the face of these facts not too deeply drawn (would that , they were!) we ask which is the revolu tionary party? No candid, thought ful, discriminating mind can fail to discover with which party revolution, anarchy and imperialism may be found; and it remains. with the peo ple to apply the remedy. . ; t THE TREATY OF WASHT5QT0& The treaty of the Joint High Com mission . was ' adopted by the United States Senate last Thursday, by a vote of 50 to 12 Senators Kelley and Corbett of this State voting against it. The following is a syn sopsis of the treaty : The President of the United States, the Queen of England, the President of the Swiss Confederation, the King of Italy and the Emperor of Brazil are to name the arbitrators. The arbitrators are to meet - at Geneva, Switzerland, not exceeding fix months after the ex change of ratifications of the treaty. The board of assessors provided for to ' fix damages in each case, to be nominated one by the President of the United States; one by the Queen of England, and one by the King of Italy; and they ore to sit at Wash ington, or New York, or Boston, and to make a solemn declaration to find according to justice and equity in each case. The board of assessors must make their final report at the end of three years and three months, and after that all claims are barred. These reports are to be ruada at stat ed intervals, to the Unites States Secretary of State and the British Minister at Washington, and the ex penses of the arbitrators and asses sors to be paid equally by both gov ernments. . A board of three commis sioners is to be appointed to settle ell other claims than those of the Al abama, to make final report in two years. - "We" are sorry to see Democratic journals already running up names for candidates for tle Presidency. Many a hard, battle is yet to be fought and many a victory won in the States before we can devote time to manufacturing the President for 1872. . Let us not engender conflicts and jealousies by putting ' forward some men to the exclusion of others who are perhaps equally as worthy and competent. - No fear but that we can find a candidate when we want him. . - ' Ohto'Demociuct. On the 15th of May the Democratic Convention of Butler county, Ohio, passed a series of resolutions ra direct conflict with i ihe Mongrel platform of Valandig ham of which we made mention last wee It-is well known that Valandig ham is An aspirant for Congressional ljoiors, end it remains to be seen whether the Democracy of his District will endorse his slip-shod style of politics.- "We Apprehend Vol. is a.

Yictoeia C WooDHcit recent ly made a ran tanker ous speech in New York in which tibe declared that if the women didn't ' get the ballot pretty soon they wouJd raise a thun derin row in this Government. She said: ""We mean treason we mean secession!" . From the pi ec;pu pro ceedings of that model female roosti r which we published last week we would suppose that she did n.ean treason to virtue and secession from decency. Scat! . - ; , A Distinguished Accession. Hon. W. A. McPherson, late Bepublican State Printer, comes out in a letter in tne baiem Mercury, renouncing his affiliation .with the Badical party and uniting his political destiny with the Democracy. He has accepted the position of associate editor with Mr. Upton in the management of the Mercury, and hereafter bis trenchant pen will be wielded only in behalf of Democracy. The town of Cheshire, Connecti cut, sent up to the capital its election returns; but after the Badical legis ture met they found that Jewell was about 20 behind, so Cheshire sent up 23 more votes with orders that if Jewell wanted 'more they would bt forthcoming! That' a model Badi cal town, and its Badical voters ought to be pensioned lot life. ( Goon fob the "Oij, Dominioh." At the municipal elections in several Virginia towns last week the Con servatives were successful. .

The following brief communication accompanied the above reply: To the Editor of the Tribune Sin Home six weeks slneo 1 wan In Milwuu kie, Wisconsin, und in conversation with Mra. M.

No. 23 Union Square, X. Y., May S, 1ST! "We learn from the Milwaukie Sen tinel (a Badical paper) that a divorce was quietly granted, without any ap parent feeling of resentment ordisi play of malignancy from either Mr. or Mrs. Pomeroy and that the $20,- 000 alimony granted by the court was the amount agreed upon between the parties. .Since the separation. which has continued for the past years, 'Brick" has affluently sup ported her and their child, notwith standing the disparaging rumors of neglect that have often been circu lated by those whose ignorance of the facts was only equaled by their mis chievous malignity toward a man whose sins are not akin to hypocrisy. Circumstances of peculiar delicacy have compelled Mr. Pomeroy to sub mit silently to imputations of dishon or: and with this final action it is to be hoped, all vituperation will cease. 0TXB WASHINGTOHJBTTES. "Washington D. C,"May 13, 1871. A committee, consisting ot Messrs Carpenter, Conkling, Sumner, Trum bull and Davis, of Ky., were ap pointed to inquire into the great and absorbing question of tbe'day here. who stole a copy of the "High Joint' treaty and sold it to the New York Tribune for $300? The discussion was mtrresting; some of the Sena tors thought that it would be discour teous to the the great Ulysses if they did not clear their skfrts of all com plicity in the publication, while oth ers intimated that mct probably the thing leaked out from, the other end of the avenue, and the correspond ents caught Jesse generally. The whole thing is disgraceful, but it is nothing new, as it is well known that every important action or speech made in Executive session is tele grapnea mat same day by corres pondents to every part of the eoun try. A Democratic Senator not long since expressed his surprise to me that the secret debates of the Senate were always made known, and from the characters of the gentlemen rep resenting the Democracy in the Senate no one will question their in tegrity and forfeiture of honor by retailing the secrets of the Executive Sessions. The Committee bad better not examine too closely, or they may stumble upon some disagreeable bus iness which for the sake of the treaty and their party had better remain in darkness. ' It is a pity that there is not a law to punish the publisher who encourages thieving by buying stolen treaties, knowing them to be stolen as in tms case oi Horace ureeiey. wi'io is so recklessly dishonest that he declares, nnblushingly, that he spare d no pains to get the treaty apparently not' caring that it is as great apiece of rascality as if he had bought a pwr of boots from a thief, knowing tiie.n to be stolen. Is this the result of his Badical associations and the high moral ideas which he has imbibed, ot; was he born vicious and depraved and has blown into-a hardened old sinner in his maturer years'? '"''."';'.;'." The Attorney General yesterday reversed the decision of iommission- er Pleasanton, with regard to the tax on dividends, in which he held that Sections 15. and 16 of the .Act of July, 1870, did not authorize, the col lection of a tax upon dividends de clared for the last five months of 1870.' He revoked a previous decis ion,' directing the assessment and col lection of this tax, and directed As sessors to strike such assessments from their lists and to assist claim ants in getting taxes which they had paid refunded. The Attorney Gen eral, in the claim of the Second Na tional Bank of Elmira," N. Y., re versed . Pleasantoh's ruling and de cides that the dividend tax can be collected for the last five . months of 1870. There 13 considerable money involved in this decision, which will be collected .from banks, railroad companies, &c, much to their dis gust. . I delight to quote from Horace Greeley, ho speaks so plainly. I do not stop to inquire what; impels this fit of plain speaking with a tinge of honesty, in it, for Horace's ways are inscrutable. Speakim; of Senators Edmunds, Morton, Howe and Conk ing, be says: "that no on e act of these men for the past year but has been influenced by this covert desire to adoru the middle of the Supreme bench. Fitness of things the Presi dent does not recognize, and we are as liable to have Iloscoe Conkling presiding over the lawyers as we are to see Strong and Bradley voting out their omtract on the legal-tender sub ject. This is very severe ou Grant, his henchmen in the Senate, and his bought tools on the Supreme bench, and it is an endorsement of what I have heretofore stated with regard to Grant s promiso to Conkling of the Chief Justiceship if he would get rid of Chief Justice Chase. . "What disposes Horace to go for Grant and his friends I do not care, but, what ever it may .be, it has wrung consid erable truth from one not inclined that way. . The Ku-Kxcx Hum duo Exploded. South Carolina is claimed to be suf fering more from Ku-Klux outrages than any other State, and the follow ing dispatch explains the situation in that section and clearly demonstrates the utter uselessness of the adoption of the odious Ku-Klux Bill: "Washinotos, May 20. Gov. Scott, of South Carolina, arrived here yes terday, aud held a long interview with President Grant, this morning, in which he said there was no neces sity for putting the State under mar tial law, and that there was a good state of feeling among the better class of citizens to put down Ku Klux organizations. Then akd Now. Five years ago James' O'Mcara was editing a Demo cratic paper and W. A.' McPherson was editing a Bepublican paper- both in this city; at the same time they were rival candidates for State rinter. Now, presto change. O'Mcara publishes a Kanaka-Bad ical sheet in Portland and McPherson is associate editor of a Democratic pa per in Salem. The difference is that Mac" honestly acknowledges his former error, while "Jeemes" won't acknowledge anything even his al- egiance to his Kanaka sovereign. G. W. Lawson, of Salem, is out 'or Elizabeth Cody Stanton for Pres ident in 1872; and Mrs. "Victoria Woodhull for Vice President. Won der if Lawson has "come out" since he found what sort of a sleeping partner Mrs. Woodhull has ? ' Tue editor of the Ornjonian baf been elected as one of Ben. Holla- day's Directors in the West Side Bailroad. Isn't there danger of that. very dignified and eminently respect able journal be regarded as a "ring organ" hereafter? The Democrats of California are electing delegates to the State Con vention, and a large majority of the delegates already chosen are said to favor Ilaight for Governor. He will doubtless be nominated. . ' The editor of the Bulletin has been immortalized by having a mining camp in Jackson county named for him. It is called "Kanaka Flat."
