TUESDAY, APKIL 5, 1810. No sooner is the Fifteenth Amendment Lroelciaied than a sudden shrewdness seizes the New York Democracy like a colic. After having stumped the State to elect a DemoLegislature, on purpose to revere tho ratification of that Amendment, already made by a Republican .Legislature, and having succeeded, reversed the ratification, delayed it by several mouths, and even secured a quasi acknowledgment of their adverse action in the proclamation of ratification itself, these shrewd Democrats purpose now to convince the colored votera of the Empire State that they are indebted to the Democratic party for tho right of suffrage. For this purpose they propose to pasa an act extending the operation of the Fifteenth Amendment to New York. The necroes of New York may be very ignorant in political matters, but tliev are not ao honelesly depraved, as the ereat maaa of the Democrats of this State suppose. Chicago Tribune The Most Unklndest Cat. It was exceedingly unkind to Mr. Voorhees. who had incurred very considerable expense in such matters as hall rent, advertising, etc., and loss of time in leaving Washington, to sav nolhina of the wear? hours occu pied in writing out his remarkable speech, that neither M; Ilendricka nor Mr. Alvord.the one the leader, and the other the State Executive Chairman of the Democracy, welcom ed him or evenshook hands with him Fcllowins an illustrious example. these brethren should have washed the feet of their brother disci pie,' refreshed him after his journoy, and comforted h:m with much counsel and encouragement. Yet they did not even take his "horny hand of ton in theirs, or ereet his begrimed and labor-Bwcatintr brow with the kiss of salutation. That they did neither of these thines. we have the testimony of Mr. Voorhees himself, which, wo confess, is not very Rood, but ptiil the best we can procure. It should be conclusive with the De mocracy at least, near the opening sentence at the Academy oi Music: L 4 dies aw Gkntlshsit:-! am here to night to speak; tor tho laboring tax-payers of Indiana. lam not welcomed on my return to Ibis capital by those who own tlte bonds of tne GoTtromeat, and live In luxurious Idleness upon the bard earnlug of others. The national banker with bis thirty per cent, pront wisbes no reform, and extends no friendly band to me, The lion. Thomas A. Hendricks owns Ten Thousand Dollars of the stock of the First National Bank, and Mr. E. S. Alvord, the Chairman of the Democratic State Central Com mittee, as much or more. Is it not a shame that Mr. Voorhees was not welcomed by these eminent Demo crats? Indianapolis Journal. From tne Missouri Democrat. The Tariff Bill. me speecn ot uen. oenencK. in closing the general debate on the tariff bill, was a fair sample of the meth od by which tariffs like tho one under which we live are usually slipped through tho House. " We must have revenue, and therefore these heavy duties must be imposed, 13 always toe urst statement, and it is always a la se hood. .Larger revenue eould easily be raised by lower duties: if a thousand articles are now absolutely excluded by the duty on imports, tho government receives no revenue whoever froiu the high duty on thesgand would receive a large revea0 i'f the duty were so reduced a topsrmit the importation of suy articles. It is. then, no more d n0 iegg tban a faige. 7? J.0 --diert that the great multi-JItJ-Sl clauses in these tariffs which are intended to exclude somo foreign article are needed for revenue. Suoh duties are desired only for another purpose, and can be honestly defended only by a different reasoning. When Oen. Schenck tells the House that wo must have duties substantially such as the proposed bill imposes, in order to raise the levenuo required by government, he tries to deceive thellouBe and the people. If revenue was his object, the duties might bo so adjustod as to relieve the people of halt tho taxes which they now pay, and yet secure to government a larger revenue than it now .receives, for, when a foreign commodity is excluded by a duty, the government gets no revenue, while, if tho price of the corresponding domestic srucloisrais ed above the normal cost of the foreign article duty free, the people pay a tax, and that tax they pay. not to govern ment, but to favored interests. By wiping out every duty which involves such a tax as this, the burdens ox the people might be groatly reduced, while the revenue would bo increased. Now we do not argue that every such duty ought to bo instantly or entirely removed, but we expose the falshood and rascality of defending such duties on the pretense that they are needed for revenud. A prohibitory duty can never be needed, can never be useful, lor any revenue purpose, and the man who defends one of them on that ground is either a fool or a knave. In the speech of General Schenck, this familiar falsehood appears some what less boldly than is usual, but the germ of it is there, nevertheless. "We have proposed to reduce the revenue about twenty millions," says Schenck, 'and the committee could hardly recommena a reduction greater in amount." The inference which he wishes to produce is that any other reduction ot duties would involve a greater redaction of revenue which is the same old falsehood in essence. Dad General Schenck dealt honestly . with the Uou3e, he would have said, "Here are about three thousand du ties which are designed to exclude ioreign articles as far as possible, and tnese auties, Deingaesignea to yield a little revenue as possible, we retain for the purpose of protection, increae'ng them in cases when, foreign products not being excluded, the duty does yield revenue contrary to our intention. But duties on other articles, designed for revenue, we have ao reduced that we expect the revenue to the treasury will be cut down about twenty millions. Prohibitive duties, on the other hand, having been increased, the people will pay a heavier tax than before on the protected domestic articles. The net result of this tariff, therefore, is to increase taxation while reducing revenue; to take more money from the people; and to give less of it to the Government and more to monopolies." That is precisely what Mr. Schenck would have been obliged to eay if he had tried to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. To this general deception in regard to the nature and object of the tariff, there is always added a multitude of falsehoods about its details. The advocates of such bills as these have a great faith ia the stupidity, gullibility anddenso ignorance of members of Conrea and their constituents, and tbey therefore rely largely upon blunt iiusstaeuient3 about the details of a

iwuiwi mxjl wmmmts tfliSbaBtHa

bill which they want to waat put through. In this instance, Mr. Schenck has the face to deny that the pending bill increases the duty on iroa, and repeats tho often-exposed Bophistry about "the new classification," which, as wo have shown our readers, is intended to place all the forms of iron actu ally imported largely in classes bearlog heavier duty than thoy now bear. It is ao ingenious swindle, but a swindle nevertheless, to say that the uniiorm duty on steel ot J cents a pound is a reduction, because in the present tariff thero is a class of steel bearing 3i cents duty when in point of fact the millions of pounds of steel now imported bear a duty of 2 per cent., and the committee proposes to raise that duty one cent a pound, and to make it absolutely prohibitory! I1 many, all these tarius wind up with p.n attempt to cheat the farmers with the notion that they are bene fited. Mr. Schenck says " tho tariff was raised on flax tow, flax seed, castor beans and hides," but takes care not to tell his hearers that if these duties had been made three times as large they would not help the far mers in the least degree. The price of foreign hides in New York, for example, was 22$ cents in gold, Janu ary 1st, while domestic hides in the same city and on the same day sold at 8J cents in gold. What a swindle it is, then, to pretend that a heavier duty on the foreign hides will give to the farmer any higher price for his hides! There is every prospect that th"i3 bill will be defeated. But it any shrewd Democrat wants to crush the Republican party, he will do his best to get just such a bill as this passed by a Kspublican Congress Communicated K. & C. Ballroad Stock. 1 noticed in tne journal ot yes terday, a suggestion to the effect that, with the Northern connections of the E. & C. llailroad, which are about to be completed, we shall soon be able to sell our two hundred thousand dol lata of stock in that Road at par. I would say that, with these con nections, and with the southern con nection via. Nashville, that stock will be above par. Let any business man make an estimate of the money value ot the liiVansviile & Crawfordsville Railroad, with its rolling stocks, ma chine shops, and other property, and ho will find that our city Block in that road is worth more than par to-day, and if you find or hear of any one who is depreciating its value, the chances are that ho, or some of his friends, is willing to buy it at a disoount. The road, although well managed, never has paid aDy cash dividends to stockholders, for the reason that the earnings have been expended in mak ing the road and the property held by the company more valuable. I would say 10 our city council, aon t be n any haste to sell out that stock. R April 2, 1870, PAP IIIOMAS." An Interesting Incident ot the Late War. The death of General George II. Thomas, briefly announced lately, was a shock to tho people of Louisville universally, whether they liked the man or sympathized withhia war career or not. He4efr us so little while agpa'Pof manly and quiet vigQraman who looked the impersonation of a fifty years' longer lease of life. To the readers abroad it may bo necessary to say that Colonel Watkins married a daughter of General Rousseau about the close of the war died in New Orleans, and his body was brought, with that of his distinguished father-in-law, a few months ago, for interment in our beautiful cemetery at Cave Hill. Just after the battle of Nashville, Colonel Watkins, on General Thomas' staff, approached the General in a free and cordial manner, as it tho request he was about to make could not bo denied: "General, you know I have a sweetheart, Miss Rousseau, whom I have not seen for months. A leave of absence, if you please, for weeks." To the dismay of poor Watkins, Thomas shrugged his shoulders. Watkins, seeing that some intercession was necessary, reminded the General of his youth, and the ardor ot suoh years and attachments, and referred to somo probable history ot the General in such mat tcrs. General Thomas quietly and soldierly replied: "Watkins, I've been there: "and the truth is. I too, havo a sweetheart; and I have not seen her for more months than you have yours for so many weeks. And. what is more, 1 have been married to my sweetheart, and want to see her as much as you do yours, and. it is likely, more. But I wont let her come to camp. A camp is no place for a wife. She is out of her clement, and it softens man. And I won't go to seo my wifo till my duty is ended and tho war over. What I will not do myself I will not allow you to do. Besides, I have a 'raid' to make in Mississippi and Alabama, and I decided this morning that you were the man to lead it. You will please report for duty at 6 A, Journal. 31." Louisville CourierFrom tlie Providence Journal Tassels. The spring is drawing back her curtains and confining them with tassels. Between their folds we catch a glimpse of sunshine and blue sky beyond. A promise is given us of hereafter beholding a beauteous theatre and numerous and accomplished actors, but at present we have to do simply with the tassels which confine the drop scene. At first let us look at the catkins of the alder, which, drooping over every stream, fling their golden polln upon the water. How pretty they are!' How graceful in the irregularity of length they displayl .How becoming are the rich brown scales relieved by the yellow of the underlying stamens I But what is this soft and silky tuft put forth by the willows? A catkin indeed! and the first harbinger of spring. It is pretty now, although to some squeamish people too suggestive of kittens, and becomes really charming when later the crlossv whiteness ia picked out with red and yellow. If we can obtain it, it can easily be coaxed into blossoming within doors, and will prove a pleasant oompanion until the sweet-breathed Mayflower comes to talto its place. Most large trees and shrubs in our climate present this catkin form of fructification. The willows and alders previously mentioned, together with the birches, beeches, oaks, hazels and nut trees make themselves gay with tassels. Wo all remember the lordly chestnut, and how in sum mer it bursts forth into a splendid fountain of cream-colored blossoms. Tho Bweet fern and bayberry are alao catkined, but in them the form of the ament is jtiffer and less graceful. I Their fragrance, however, mora than !

repays us for tho lack of floral beauty, j and makes us wish we were some American Norval "feeding his flocks" upon the hills. In all these different plants the same general form of catkin is preserved, yet all are different in the modifications of the pattern and the move or less delicacy of the coloring. The amentaceous trees, or those which thus flower in tassels, often present two distinct kinds ot bloom either on tho same or different trees, the one kind distinguished by the presence of stamens, and the other pistilate. Both forms are necessary

to the continuanco 01 the epecies. Somo catkins arc an intcrupted mass ot flowers, while in others the starlike blossoms arc separated by interspaces. As in all her other works, na ture in this case rarely repeats herself. Many of the trees form their aments in the summer, and these remain un?rotccted throughout the winter, 'he elms and maples are gay with a kind of tassel in early sprinsr. and those of the different maples are of all colors, from light green to red. Yet these are not catkins, but rather clusters, or fascicles, or in some cases drooping racemes. In these we will find the flowers much more perfect than in the instances before given; yet the really essential organs will be found in both cases to bo the same, We are scarcely prepared to eay that the blushing corolla of the apple is more wonderful than the self-proect-ed blossoms of these forest tree3. Wo have rather anticipated the ad vent of spring, and some may con aider our remarks quite premature. Cold winds and sleet are yet to come, lrue, but tne nowcrs are waiting on the door-step, and even it the hand ot April should beckon them in March, they are ready to cast off their russet clothing, and to appear in "all their glory." From the San Francisco Bulletin. CAUfiHT OJT THE KOCKS. A Lady Entrapped on a (HIT and Fxposed all Aight to a ti ale. A very singular and painful occur ence took place at 1'oint Jjobos on Wednesday. Mrs. White, whoso husband drives one of the omnibuses on tho Point Lobos road, left her house at ten 0 clock on Wednesday morning to eo to the beach to procure some mus cles for cooking. In going down the cliff or embankment, which is very light and abrupt she descended part way and found herself in a position from which she could neither advance nor retreat. It was imposible to get either up or down, and impossible to call sufficiently loud for help to make herself heard. As she designed to go but a short distance from the house, and as the weather was fine, she started out without either shawl or bonnet. and had not even told Mrs. Cotter, with whom she was livmg, where she was going. After on absence of sev eral hours Mrs. Cotter became alarm ed, and a search was instituted, but she could not be found. Mr. White was absent and knew nothing of the circumstances until evening. un nis return tno search was re newed and kept up all night. Daylight came and brought no tidings of the missing woman. At about haltpast 11 0 clock yesterday forenoon, JMrs. white was discovered in her 1 ... perilous position in a recess among the cliffs, nearly frozen to death. Yv ednssday night was one of the most cold and disagreeable of the season. The wind blew a terrible gale, and in the morniog a heavy rain fell. How any human being could have lived through the night in such an exposed position is a mystery. Mrs. Whito was riscovered by patrick Cotter, who descended, and at very great risk to himself, succeeded in carrying the inanimate body to a place of safety. During the night those who were engaged;in the search were several times within ten feet of Mrs. White, but were unable to see her, and Bhe was unable to sec them, or to make herself heard. She states that she at one time saw Mr. Cotter going to the spring for water and did her utmost to attract his attention, but did not succeed- Although she has received all the care and attention which it is possible to give, her condition is still very low, but it is believed she will recover.
