This is a good idea, and he deserves com mendation for it. Preserving the “purity of the ballot” according to Radical notions, is to import car-loads of ignorant Senegambians to do the heavy voting, at places along on the line of Rail-roads. Witness recent affairs of this kind on the State Road. It has been ascertained by actual count that up to December Ist, President Grant has appointed twenty-one relatives to offi ce. He is supposed to be about two thirds through the list of second cousins, and will be able to take up the third cousin list by the 4th of March next. John 11. Surratt, has been delivering lectures in some of the Middle States on the subject of hip alleged connection with the plot to assassinate President Lincoln. He has published a card in which he in forms the public that he does no f ns the exponent of political principles. lie deems his lecture as simrdy a contribution to history, and is greatly surprised at the severe and galling strictures passed upon it by the press, especially the Democratic. It is now said that the rupture between President Grant and Col. Forney, was caus ed by the refusal of the latter, who has always been considered the most consumate time-server in our country, to do certain and rty work of a political nature for the first named character. According to report, Grant desired Forney to initiate a move ment through the editorial department of the Chronicle, to read out of the party Sen ators Sumner and Solan z, but he flatly refused, considering such a course disre putable, and unmanly ev- r for a politician ! Payments.— The Radical leaders are sadly at a loss how to bring the country to specie payment. Boutwell would delay ouch a consumation till be succeeds in pay ing off the debt by his own peculiar process. That process contemplates the purchase ot the debt and tho cancelling of the obliga tions before they become due. In this way 10,504,701 have been applied to the payment of debt not yet due since the first day cf M&i’Cjh. Stunner base another pana cea. It is to priiifc no more currency iu place of that now in circulation. When this lot wears out, as it will in a few years, it would make such a gain for the Govern ment that a return to specie payments would be both easy and certain. By this latter process, the people would be com pelled to pay taxes as usual, while their loss on the circulation medium would be fsuperadded ! Thy Business. — A Northern print states that the- office of Jackson <fe Hammond, swindlers in New \ork, was searched last week, and 7QO letters from parties in vari ous States were discovered, ordering <nun~ terfeit money to the amount of $575,000. It is said the firm rfSffved nearly $5,000 a week by their infamous trafic. The crop of fools is evidently on the increase; The testimony comes from Mr. Sumner himself, that “he was present with Mr. Staunton when he gave the ordy Tor the burial of the Union dead at Arlington* and elated that he hod issued it to prevent anv ot the-Lec familv from evop retsoverirffc lh# proper tj.—Constitution.

SOUTHERN CREDIT. It is unfortunate for the South that, at a timi- when the reconstruction of its finances was required, the oontrol of its State affairs should have fallen into the hands of mere political adventurers. There was a time when it was a sufficient guar antee of a Southern State obligation that it was backed by Southern men of inflexible honor and conspicuous integrity. At pres ent, there is scarcely a State ic the South whose di*l)ts have this sort of backing. For the last five years, the finances of the sev eral States have been controlled by men who have acquired position through the political vicissitudes consequent upon the war. With no experience in statesmanship or finance and no record but that of ad venturers, these men have undertaken to readjust the revenues and debts of the States. AVe know what we say when we affirm that the main object with these raw financiers has not been the good credit of the State, but the manipulation of the finances so as to produce the largest possi ble gains out of speculation. Their schemes have been, in most cases, hatched in Wall street banking-houses; and the Legislators, Governors, and officials have been paid tools for carrying out the plans of shrewd bankers. The maiD point aimed at was to produce the widest possible fluc tuations in the prices of the Scale bonds, irrespective of the interest of the State, the party to be “milked” being the innocent public. Most of the States have found it necessary to issue new obligations to pro vide fur their over due bunds or their un paid interest. These new issues have in most eases been put out by secret sale on the market, and in amounts known onlv to the negotiator and the clique. In antici pation of the issue, the parties to the secret would sell on time large amounts of the State securities, and so soon as the new bunds- b»l .been marketed feet would be announced, with the resuit of a heavy fall in the market value of the obligations, afford.Dg the “ring” ppeeuki'ors an oppor tunity for covering their previous large sales, lu other instances, a legislative “ring” has authorized large issues of bonds to railroad schemes for which there was no necessity arising cut cf the commerce of the State. These loans had the double speculative advantage of involving large contracts for building the roads, and of yielding a profit on the manipulation of the bond, market, the gains on both operations falling into the hands of the clique. In other instances, the political speculators have sought illicit gains through factitious expedients for stimulating the credit of the State. In these cases, they would first ot all buy through New York capitalists large amounts of the obligations, and then aug ment tue taxes to retire unexpectedly a considerable amount of debt, as a still further expedient, compel certain corpora tions doing business within the State to hold a considerable amount of the State obligations, which the corporations had to buy irorn the clique.—A. 17 Bulletin. Gev Grant P wbrles* in Congress.—A Washington letter to the Baltimore Gazette says: “It is understood the President cannot command a sufficient force in the Senate to ratify any treaty or nomination in which he is supposed to have a personal interest, if the present Congress is to be regarded os tho reflex of the popular Radi cal senfliment, therefore ilis Excellency will have a-ditiicljt tirao to* work through the Radical convention in 1872. ” Bradley vs. Wilson —AYay down in happy Georgia there dwells among a nam erous p ipuiatioh of the "same complexion, a lively and enthusiastic African, who re- 4 juices in the nnme of A. Alpeoria Brad--* ley. So much life and enthusiasm has ' Bradley, on political subjects iu particular, that he is called by his admirers “the blood and thunder nigger.” It comes to pass in the natural course of events, that this neat combination of gore and electricity aspires to a seat in Copgress, announces his name as a candi date, and secures the aomination of a Rad ical convention. He defeats in the contest a wbiite man and a cupper colored brother, and these two get up an opposition move ment and nominate somebody else. More than this, they send word to Senator AVilson of Mass., that Bradley is a bad egg, a bolter, and wants to break up the party. AVhere upon Wilson, who is disposed to gather the whole colored race under his protecting wings, even a3 a hen gathcreth her chickens, writes' a letter to Bradley, rebukes him lor wickedness, and tells him to stop running for Congress on pain of losing forever tho AVilsor.ian friendship and patronage. But A. Alpeofia, like “Young Gosling” in the play, on the garden wall, says emphatically* “f will not come down !” lie also throws a few rays of light over AYilson’s benighted soul, by informing him that ho, Bradley, is “the regular nominee, duly chosen by a duly authorized convention,” that after this convention was over, “a defunct committee held a metting and nominated an ineligible Indian, and an unknown rative ofOhjw. thus seeking to elevate a Second rate £ imvgwe and a third rate white man, over a first-class colored man.” This interesting corres pondence between a Georgia darkey and a United States Senator, is published by the former in the shape of a circular, illustrated with wood-cuts. AVe congratulate Bradley upon knowing his rights, and knowing, daring to maintain them. Butler’s Plan.— Mr. Benjamin F. But ler is a protectionist of the undoubted radi cal stamp. In a recent speech, delivered at Boston, in Massachusetts, Mr. Butler explained to an admiring andienoe his plan of compeling England to pay the Alabama claims. “Our remedy,” he said, “is com plete non-intercourse. She cannot force us to take her manufactures at the can non’s mouth. The saving to the country by the protection thus given to our manu factories w mid very soun mafe’ good all the losses by the Alabama, fur which the government ought to issue bonds and pay to the individual claimant.’'’ This is set forth by the radical party press as Mr. Butler’s plan of compelling England to pay the Alabama claims. It appears, however, that it is Mr. Butler’s plan of compelling American mechanics, and laboring min to pay the Alabama claims, many times over. A non intercourse act would reduce wheat to fifty cents a bushel, and would instantly increase, by three or four hundred per cent., the price cf every article that the farmer and mechanic must wear or use. It would ruin every planter of corn or c<gton ; it would send ha*t the laboring!! population of the northwest to the poor-house, and cast every .southern nigger agfefn upon tho bouoty of the public treasury. But it would be a godsend to New England manufactures and Pennsylvania iron-mongers. It would turn into their already weirfilled coffers a swollen stream of dollars wrung from the necessities of human existence. It would enrich villainy and impoverish honesty. It would cause the mho roan t ~andt i p.opuofcs it to laugh with diabolical glee, and would rejoice beyond measure the spirit of his master, the devil. A siugle day's ope.ration of a non intercourse act would the country by the abstraction of more millions from the pockets of industry than twenty Alabama claims would am unt to. And this is the plan of the Prince of Radicals. C. Times. Butler Pilloried. —There is probably no example in history of anything so un principled and nefarious as the project here deliberately advanced as a desirable policy for adoption, by the people and Government of the United States. It is not tenable or defensible upon any principle of interna tional law or equity, and it seriously adopt ed it would render our country the brigand of nations. It is just here the danger comes in. Corporations are said fcb have do souls. But in modern times it appears that parties have no principles. There is just a possi bility that under the presence of party ncessifv, and as a means of gratifying individual ambition and rapacity, tho views of General Butler may shape the policy of the &Gministration for the next two years. There is bitter shame and humiliation in tho thought. The mere announcement in foreign nations of the promulgation of such sentiments by a politic an of Gen. Butler’s reputation and aspirations will inflict more real danger to our country than was sus tained from the Anglo-Confederate cruisers. — K. J. Economist. A Congressional Committee has made an examination of the Government Print ing Office, with a view to an extension of the premises asked for by the Public Printer. The Committee, who worked at the matter with one eye only and with ex clusive reference to the present amount of public printing, and especially the pres ent unusual accumulation of delayed and unfinished work, have intimated an inten tion to recommend the proposed enlarge ment. A broader view of the matt"- w..ulj have led to a wiser conclusion. The ab - litionof the franking privilege woul i reduce the amount of public printing by one-half, and prudent economy wouli materially lessen the other halt —in which ease the dimensions of the present building would be more than amply sufficient.

In 1825 there were but fur Catholic priests in New England. Now there are six bishop s , three hundred and fifcy priests, and a Catholic population of 029,CF0. Qneon Victoria has scandalized the high churchmen of England by taking the com muuion with the Presbyterians, and even supplying the silver service for the occasion. Sir Francis Lvette, a distinguished Meth* odist layman, offers $250,000 if the Wesley an Conference will raise an equal amount within ten years, to build fifty chape's in London. Old Cardinal Antonelli, the Pope’s pYi mier, has been smitten with the charms of “Little Yinnie Ream,” and presented her a costly gold chain with a medalion of Pius lXth. A missionary in Turkey remarks that there is a great work going on under the surface in all that region. The faith of many in the national superstitions is shak en. At the recent consecration of the Jewish synagogue in Columbus, Ohio, the pulpit was occupied, besides the rabbis, by six clergymen, four of whom were Methodists, one a Presbyterian, and the sixth a Congre gationalist. Athens, Maine, has but one church edi fice, which is owned by four societies, and occupied by each every fourth Sunday, while the four sects live in peace and sup port a large Sunday school. # The Tennessee colored Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church South determ ined at its recent session to raise the 3tand ard of ministerial culture. Hereafter none will be licensed by that body who cannot read and write. Among the Universalists, “Children’s Sunday” is becoming an established insti tution. It is usually appointed in May or June, and is made the occasion of the in fant baptisms for the year. Flowei-3 and appropriate music abound. A proposition was submitted to the rail road meeting at Lynchburg, to abandon the running of trains over the roads on the Sabbath, except in cases of necessity and mercy ; and that when such trains are run, the net profits shall be applied to such objects of charity as may be selected by the president and directors of the road.

This is believed to be the first undenominational church in Amer ica. The pemfte of Yokohama Japan, had a little excitement over a proposition to pay fur a church organ by making the organ the capital of a lottery scheme. But the public sentiment revolted against the idea of serving the interests of religion by gam bling, and the government prohibited the enterprise. The Japan Mail says: “The easy virtue of the Christian, thus publicly rebuked by the paternal care of the Pagan government, is a slur we shall not easily forget, and a reprimand by which we may 7/fell be stung.” The Rev. J. Cross, of Atlanta, has com menced the publication of anew religious journal to be called the “Banner of the Chureh.” Ue says it will be it is aim t 6 make hie jour ual just what its title indicates. It will be filled with sound Church teaching and interesting Church Intelligence. The true catholic doctrine will be maintained, while all that savors of Romish supersti tion or ritualistic extravagance will be dis carded. We shall “contend earnestly for the faith once delivered to the saints,” without indulging in unprofitable contro versy. or holding any quarrel with other religious organizations. There is work for all to do, and room for all to work. Truth and charity, twin sisters, must walk hand in hand. Bishop Potter has imi'tatel the esftmple of the R-ght Rev. I>r.

Too many carpet-baggers, too much politics and roo little intelligence have swamped the Radical element in Yirginia, North Carolina and Alabama, and the same causes promise like resuUs in Arkansas, Texas and Georgia, Unless the unscrupu lous politicians who have during the last three years manipulated Southern affairs are thrown overboard and party dissentions healed, most of the late rebel States will be lost to the administration in the election of 1872. It is matter for regret th it the depression in the cotton trade continues, m ire espec iaily a’s it affects so many business interests, to say nothing of the commerce of the coun try. The decline in cotton and current market quotations represent a loss to the country of $150,000.000. This, of course, will be seriously felt in the export trade of the country, and will entail heavy losses on the Southern States. This large pecuniary loss to the cotton growing Slates will ma terially curtail pnn bases of merchandise in* Northern cities by Southern merchants. Nowhere will this loss off- >e be so in jurious!y felt as in New V.>rk c ry. ... Senator Chandler is a good match for Gen.
