M. Samuels, of St. President Orsst sad O^flM-Tk* stttntloa amt Its UMtf HriulutUKi* The Radical "Darnocratie" paper of this city, having abandoned Us warfare upon Ganeral Lougstrast, is now exhausting its energies upon President Grant—all to the end that the Administration may bo brought into contempt with tho “Douiocratio” faction In Us issue of the 5th inst, it has a labored artiole purporting to show “How a Texas lUdioal got office from Grant," wherein it is asserted, without a particle of proof, and oven without a roasonablo probability of truthful ness, that the President bestowed an offioe upon a Texas Republican who had no other qualifications than a blackened eye, reocived at the bauds of some Ku KJux. Growing warm over his subject, tho editor gives vent to tho following cataract of words: “He (Grant) chooses the wouuded, the buugcd-eycd, tho bloody-nosed, the gouged, the tb urn pod, the thrashed. Let tho aspirants get geutcclly kicked by some irate Democrat— battered over the noggin by a disloyal Ku- Klux. • • I.ul them proaont thcmiW’lveB bo- lore the great Grant, uud unveil their loyal suffering’ll, • • • and the reward will be I tain." This is very flue writing. Adjectives are words used to describe and qualify n*»j They also servo to fill space. They arc coii-j venient substitutes for ideas. They are gene rally in high favor with young writers. When compounded with adverbs, they muko excel lent jiugle. They make flue decorations to empty assertion, and all this whether they offend Limlly Murray or not ! When the Constitution begun its career un der its present editorial management, a few months since, it gave promise of moderation. It promised its readers something rare in tho way of high-toned journalism. It deprecate tho slang habit iuto which it said too many ••Democratic” papers had fallen. It was tc bo a bright and shiuiug light to Gooigiajoarn alism. no less an example aud a perfect model of its p.uty tactics. It even curried its fastidi ousness so far r.s to propose the dropping off tho worn out name of its party! Tho name bad become offensive to correct taste. It had boon degraded by slang whanging “Domo- cratio” editors. Henceforth the party should have high-toued journals; should have a new song iu its mouth; and should be baptised in a new name! Alas for “good resolutions!” Bhakspeare says tho highway to perditiou is paved with them. They aro made by tho worst of us when in a mood of repenianoe. They are abandoned by the best of us in an hoar of temptation and mental vacaity ! Thus we go; always repenting, and yet always making fresh work for repentance ! Always promising to do better, yet always falling an easy prey to temptution. Always plucking at external motes, yet never discerning internal beams.

Tho New York Herald contains the follow ing special dispatch from Washington: Washington, September 30, 1869.—In con lisution with Lieutenant Governor Lowir, of Virginia, who recently visited Washington, President Giant said : “There will be no dif ficulty uboul tho admission of Virginia after tho mooting of Congress, and all that is re quired is that they act as though they (the Legislature) were acting in good faith and de sired to renew their relations with the general government.” He spoke at some length about President Johnson's duplicity towards ihe South, and said that hi* (Grunt’s) whole ac tion had been with the single idea of restoring peace. lie was confident that Virginia recon struction would not be further retarded. Senator Wilson, of Massachusetts, who was present, at tho interview, expressed himself decidedly in favor of tho immediate admission of the State under tho reconstruction laws, and said tliut no further obstacle should Lb offered by Congress ; that they were tired of tho long delay and hoped for a speody restora tion, and th it he would cheerfully advocate] the removal of tho disabilities of every who should express himself willing to return to tho old government in good faith, but cau tioned against the adoption of the ideas of tho Md political hacks and stagers, who v counselling acceptance ot admission only u the grounds of their qualifications to off The President had been frequently solicited to] express his preference for the gentlemen spo ken of for election as United States Senators, but declinod offering any expression out of delicacy, und said b« had no objection to cither gentlemen proposed, but said that it would ho required that Virginia Senatj should take the iron-clad oath.

This is a gratifying augmenta tion, and should it continue iu tho same proportion lor the in muining thruo quurters of tho fisosl year, the total receipts from internal revenue will toot up $200,900,000. Last year they aggregated $160,000,000. This is a good beginning for Messrs. Boulwell and De lano, aud they will, no doubt, coutinao as they have begun, despite tho adage of the new broom. The future vitality of the Re publican party depend! on retrenchment and an honost administration of the finxncial de partment# of tho government.
