TtlWDAY MOBSINQ,-

Wli«* tUu Want. ■Qie Journal in noticing tome resolutions passed by the Republican State Convention of Alabama approvingly, states tbat In spirit they reflect the purpoMS and spirit of the Re publican party. We quote them: Ruolvtd, That we are the friends and ad‘ voeatea of free speech, free press, free school#' and the most liberal provision by the StateJor the purpose of educating the people thereof, and henceforward there is to be no distinction made between the inhabitants of the State in civil and political rights on account of color or

previous condition.

Retolved, That we discountenance all at-

tempts to stir up strife and contention among the people, believing such a course to be in

every way Injurious to the country. Commenting on the action of the Alabama

convention, and especially upon the resolu*

tlon quoted above, the Journal remarks: "The second resolution we have quoted

must commend Itself to men of all shades of political opinion. We are glad to see this repudiation of clannishness by the first conven-

tion of and the

ing to divide political parti distinctions of race, and to create discord between citizens of diflerent colors. We know that nothing of this sort is desired, but on the contrary it is the aim of the Republicans to brifig to their support the good and patriotic men of all colors and conditions. We want no black man’s party, nor white man’s party, but a grand Union partv, representing all the States, and laboring for the elevation and improvement of the masses irrespective of color, and for the prosperity and perpetuity of our free Republic.” These expressions are all well enough, but what are the facts, so far as the action of the Republican party is concerned? Has it not been, so far as it has bad the power, torepublicamze the South—to make an assured radical majority in the excluded States, the condition of restoration'! The resolution which the Journal commends contains this sentiment: "Henceforward there is to be no distinction made between the inhabitants of the State in civil and political rights on account of color or previous condition.” This is broad and liberal, but the Journal Will net assent to its catholic spirit. There is a distinction made in the civil and political rights of the people in all the States subject to the military reconstruction bill. An ignorant and degraded race is enfranchised, Is invested with political power, and a large class of white citizens are disfranchised, and why is the discrimination made In the previous condition of the latter class? The Journal has frequently placed It upon the ground that It Is necessary to destroy the power that class has heretofore exercised upon the public mind, in the political reorganization of those States. And what is the guilt charged upon that class? Briefly stated, it was the attempt to dismember the Government, or to divide the Union. That is the alleged offense for which those men arc to suffer. Let us look at the past a little and see If those men are worthy of such punishment, if there arc not elthers equally guilty who are left in the enjoyment of all civil and political rights. Some years ago the State of Massachusetts passed a personal liberty bill, -vbich was just as much an act of rebellion against the government of the United States as the secession act of South Carolina or any other southern State. Should any distinction he made between the men who voted for those measures? Both declare their object was to maintain civil and personal liberty and both quoted the Declaration of Independence, the platform of principles upon which our government was framed, in justification of their

action.

The American people arc familiar with the fact that a considerable party in the northern and eastern States, for a number of years, openly denounced the Constitution of the United States and boldly favored tbo dissolution of the-Unlon. There is hardly a school boy in the land but who knows that Wendell Phillips, William Lloyd Garison and their compeers labored openly and assiduously for the disUnction of the Union and the Constitution, in order to accomplish the purposes they had in view. If Jeff. Davis and those who acted with him were guilty of a crime which should lie punished with death or disfranchisement) should not the same measure ot Justice be meted out to the other parties, who declared they had the same purpose in view?—the overthrow of the Constitution and (he Union. And were not the secessionists justified In the course they adopted by some of the leading Republicans—men, who during the war, as well as before It, stood in the front ranks of the Republican party ? The present acting Vice President of the United States, the man who has been selected to succeed Mr. Johnson in the contingency of the vacancy of the oftico from any cause, gave aid and comfort to

the rebellion.

The Hon. Ben. Wade, United States Senator from Ohio, ma le a speech In the Senate, December 4, ISoO, in which he coined the following, from the Congressional Globe, third

session, Thirty-fourth Congress:

w But Southern gentleman stand here and In almost all their speeches, speak of the dissolution of the Union, as an element of every argument, as though It were a peculiar condescension on their part that they permitted the Union to stand at all. Iftheydonot feel Interested in upholding the Union—if it really trenches on their rights—If It endangers their institutions to such an extent that they can not feel secure under it—If their Interests are violently assailed by means of this Union, I am not one of those who expect tbat they will long continue under it. I am not one ef those who would ask them to continue in such a Union. It would be doing violence to the form of the party to which I belong. W e

Th^’f’ubllc Debt.

The New York World says the statement of the public debt on the first of June poisetaea gome unexpected features. It shows a decrease in the debt, less than the amount on hand, of a little more than ifve millions. This hag ben broughfabout no doubt by tbo holding over till June of some large drafts. The debt bearing Interest In coin has been Increased by the sale of five-twenties about |61,500,000, and the debt bearing Interest in currency has been decreased by the funding of seven-thirties about 141,500,000. Interest bearlog debt has been increased about >10,000,000, the apparent decrease of the aggregate debt being caused by Increase in the amount of currency on hand of nearly >30,000,000, accompanied with a decrease in the amount of gold on hand of about >15,500,000, leaving a net Increase in the amount on hand of more than >23,000,000. The decrease in the currency the past month has been as follows: Compound interest notes ...>4,744,270 Fractional cflirrency \ — 617,304 Greenbacks 1,038,960

The effect of these facts has been to raise the rate of discount from five to seven per cent., and severely test the strength of the gold premium. The amount of currency now afloat Is in round

French, "There is nothing certain but the unforscpn.” Yet neither saying, we fear, would supply consolation to the heavv losers by the Derby ef 1807. On this occasion, as in Tennyson’s enchanted castle, "the many fail, the tew succeed.” The million had lost faith in Hermit’s capabilities; but a score or two cherished their secret knowledge, and they are the winners. It is, therefore, quite possible that the unexpected turn in the great sporting event of the year will cause a very considerable amount of money losses, and the word* "eettling day” mast already have a fearful sound to many of those who last Wednesday morning set ont for Epsom fall of delightful anticipations. They chuckled over their superior knowledge. Like Hr. G upper’s friends, they "were up to everything, whatever it was.” They had "backed their own oplnion,” and they declared tbat “the race was over.” The result proved the truth of that rather despised commonplace, that no race Is

over until it has been run.

The prophets prophesied falsely, and the people were ready to be deceived; but Destiny, with the unreasonable affection for dark horsee to which It is prone, settled the question without regard to betting-books, and Misfortune has dealt terrible "facers” all round. As outsiders, we may feel a rather spiteful pleasure in the troubles of the wise. Had a simple minded ignoramus ventured to remark last Wednesday morning that Hermit would win, the words would only have excited a smile of pitying contempt from the

akers, who thought the chances

Knpposable Cases.

Suppose a State should change its constitution so as to* disfranchise all outthoaewho have a landed estate worth an annual income of >10,000, would that be a republican form of government?—Cincinnati Gazette. In juxtaposition the St. Louis Republican puts the following supposable case: Suppose, toe. tbat a State should change its constttuUonsoas to disfranchise a considerable portion ot the best citizens in it, would that be republican? Suppose the new constitution enacted that a capable, good man should not practi^law, afhl that a capable, good woman should not teach—in other words, that a man or woman should starve or become a beggar, unless he or she first took an oath, which was kno*vn beforehand they could not conscientiously take, and which, if driven by desperation, they had taken, they woul*l render themselves liableTo the penitentiary—would that be a republican, or a human government? ifoMdltlon of Rnalneaa Enterprise. The New York Financial and Commer cial Chronicle does not anticipate ;the recurrence of a money panic similar to those of 1937,’47 and’57. It alludes to the caution which the merchants are displaying, the prospect of ample crops, and cites the earnings of railroads as tn evidence of a recent improvement in business. In answer to the inquiry whether money will be easy for the few months which must elapse betore the usual activity sets in,

The martyr President, when a member of Congress, was no less emphatic In declaring tbat the right of revolution existed among a people, atftong a minority who regarded themselves as oppressed by the majority.

And what justice or propriety, if the principles laid down by those leaders In the Republican organization are correct, and what Republican can dispute them, In depriving a large portion of the people of the Southern States of their equal political and civil rights with all other citizens? This brings us to the inquiry, what do the Republicans want in the reorganization of the Southern States? is it not an assured political control of them? Is it not the whole purpose of the Republican missionaries in the South, from Wilson and Kxllby down, to stir up strife and contention among the people for the advancement of their partisan interests? Are not the blacks arrayed against the whites by demagogical appeals to their prejudices and passions by representatives of the Republican party? No one who reads the doings of these men In the South, but knows there is an effort being made to create discord between citizens of different colors, and It Is done In the interests of the Republican party. Senator Wilson hopes to carry the Southern States for the Repubiioan party by arraying all the blacks In one organization against the whites of those States who do not sympathize with bis peculiar views in politics or political economy. The Republicans want to retain their parly power. For that they are struggling, and they are determined to succeed, if possible, regardless of the prosperity of the country or the vast burdens which they may Impose upon it. In the present financial condition of the country, the people can judge of the cost of Republican rule, and the burdens which that party ha* fastened upon the people will not be lessened while it controls the administration of the Government.

The sensation produced by such an event, coupled with the fact that large fortunes are known to have changed hands upon it, will have compensated for bad weather, and may probably render the Epsom meeting of this year famous, or infamous, in the annals of racing.

horses, whose relative performances were the subject of keen interest for thier ownpake. It is not for love but for money, tbat race hones are now for the most part bred and reared, and while the simple minded sightseer has no thoughts beyond the visible trial of speed on the course, the attention of the Initiated is engrossed by thejluctuations In the odds. Betting, In short, has become the life and soul of racing, and the passion for despeaate pecuniary ventures which finds a vent on the Pari* Bourse and the gaming tables of Germany, has in England, taken almost exclusive possession of this national pastime. It is no secret that larger and larger sums are stalled every year upon races, and the scandals which occasionally become public are but one symptom of that deterioration in the morality of the turf which follows almost inevitably from the Increased scale of profits to be made by good luck, or good management, as it is now called. Let moralists explain it as they will, there are men who would lie absolutely proof against the temptation of £1,000, yet who would sell their souls for £1.000.OOQ. When, therefore, we hear or many hundred thousand pounds, not tossy millions,having been Inst and won on the Derby Oaks, we can no’, -but our eyes to the meaning and the*' figures. They not only Involve the ruin many an unfortunate dupe,a mi some would l>e harpies who riehly dosprve It, but vfM certainly give a mischievous impulse to fraudulent transactions on the

turf.

To moralize on the growth of such a tendency as this may well appear a piece ol Quixotism. It would be so, indeed, If society had no more power over the extravagancies of betting tbag over the indulgence of any other vice. Happily, the reverse is the case, and the salutary Influence of social opinion which put an end to duelling might do much to check, or at least circumscribe, the evil to which we refer. The man who makes a profession of betting, is, of course, beyond the reach nf any but legal restraints. He knows tbat he miTst trust for payment entirely to the honor nf his clients, and that he may be made criminally responsible for downright fraud; Out as he does not pretend to be a gentleman, in the. highest sense of that term, he does not fear social censure. Now that making a book has Income a regular trade, the wonder is that unskilled practitioners ever win at all except when they bet with each other, and those who make their llwelibood by preying upon them will hardly be deterred by appeals to reason or conscience. Even amateurs do win sometimes, however, against the oldest and asmtest book makers, and the means by which they win are the least creditable feature in the modern system of betting. To speak plainly, they win either by obtaining clandestine information or by circulation of false reports. It Is difficult to say which of these is the most indefensible. To pay a sum of money to a trainer or jockey for tampering with a favorite is not really more contrary to the principles of fair play than to bet upon intelligence gained through illicit channels, or to give out tbat a horse has broken down which Is In the finest poeslMe condition. It has been well said tbat a race horse once quoted in the betting is, for some purpose*, the property of the public, and all such tricks as false trials and other attempts to depreciate hie reputation for the sake of getting longer odd* against him are nothing but ewlndling.

the defeat of those who *re apt to exnlt over their special information and look down Upon the crown, we stand abashed before the sums of money resllzed in a few minutes by the

more fortunate speculators.

Mr. Chaplin, the owner of the winning horse, has won a tremendous stake—according to some report# £100,000, while others nearly double the amount. Bat even this, it is said, was an unwilling victory; it may bi that his owner would at the last have laid against Hermit—“hedging” former bets—if he coaid have found men ready to hack the horse. Fortunately for him, the winner had a bad reputation, and the old bets stood. For who did not know that Hermit, like The Rake,

had act exercise? that, eve

thrown out of training, and

unhealthy idleness; and that that any chance of success for him had become a mere impossibility—a contradiction in terms. The result is, therefore, a nnlversal surprise; the gentlemen who, all through, believed in Hermit

being certainly very few.

It is difficult to draw a moral from horse racing as it is now carried on—but, at all events, the inference is that the Derby is n of a lottery than the majority can bring themselves to believe. Even If the knowledge of private trials, of stable accidents, of trainers’ secrets were full and complete, even if the public running of the competitors were most keenly compared, still tate has ever and anon some little stone unturned, sod the best laid

ir st the last. Those who os they would bet on tbe

turn up dice, may lose, or msy win—possibly their chances are even; but men who rely too much on special intormatlon are sure, sooner or later, to come to woe. Nothing is more apt to throw them off their balance, to deprive them of the eoolneas necessary for calculation, than the idea tbat they know more than the

re-t ol the world.

But why preach? Who is to listen? Now, indeed, we may find some subdued sudltors— sermons go well with soda water “the day after”—but before the next Derby is run human nature will break out again, and the excitement of the great recurring contest will again rise to fevsr beat. It is difficult to describe—it require* an effort even to conceive— how very wide and varied are the Interestbound up closely with the events of the day. Racing is, of course, an amusement for men, but unwillingly some of the quietest homes in England are made to share tbe thirst of exultation at success, the sorrow that follows a severe loss. Pretty little wagers, gladly dis. charged In gloves, and the interest of most ladies In the great race; but many wives and daughters knew yesterday that the words "Hermit first” might mean nothing less than the hardships of pecuniary embarrassment. This, after all, is tbe great tragic dement nf the melo drama called human life. A man can bear his own defeat; he knows what he can endure; but as tbe most joyous thing on earth is to see your own happiness reflected in another's eyes, so the keenest misery Is to feel that others arc forced to bear the sufferings following on your defeat. Those who lost heavily on Wednesday found, wc do not doubt, the sharpest sting in returning to meet that would have brightened at their

seyswekies.

These were some of the examples he gave, and many more of the same kind.

For years the disappointed lover has been seeking bis rcvei and nowseeim to have accomplished it,u ho is insatiable. Secure in his horse, he got previous to the race all the money taken upon him that he posdoly could, by causing a rumor that in exercising "Hermit” hail broken a blood vessel, had gone lame, and similar

“jockey” stories.

The Marquis was one of tbe •■flits.” He wagered his money forty to one, freely, ami lost an enormous fortuno. It was said that he would not be able to pay. but subsequently that though it would almost ruin him. yet he

would meet all demands in full.

The London Times calls Captain Machell a “confederate” oi Chaplin The term Is an equivocal one and excited remark. Ut Captain Macbcll—who, by the way, won the neat trifle of £70,000—It Is related that be was living on ensign's pay when, a few years ago, he began to have race horses. So admirable was his management that in spite ol this he never ran a serious risk of entailing loss upon anybody. And the result* were golden. He bought bis captaincy; he gained every farthing he has In the worlu by his racing; and if ever turf life took a creditable lonn in this world it has boon in his career. He is a brave man and saved a life in Ireland w ith a generous daring that has never been forgotten; some years ago, too, an Irish jockey was killed at the Grand National Steeple C!ha«e, at Liverpool. Captain Machell was there, and was much moved at the occurrence. He made it his charge to su» perlntend and pay for tbe jockey's burial. He took the body over to Ireland, inte.rred it with some degree of modest splendor, and at bis own cost, erected a tomb, which may be seen to this day, with an inscription on it narrating tbe manner of the poor lellow’s death. Tbe event made a great sensation; Captain Machell had touched a genuine Irish chord. The Irish Jockeys swore by him, worshipped him, loved him. They did more; they did not let him lose a race for the next twelve months, and an Irish jockey rode "Hermit.” But all this docs

iment In the way to the gratification of bis inordinate ambition to make himself a greater man, he would have come much nearer the truth than be did. His abuse of me personally I do not condescend to notice. His eminent skill in that line is well known to this community. That he should so far degrade tbe office he bolds as to make his official order the vehicle of bis malice, may surprise you, but not me, who know his reckless habits. It la not my purpose, however, in ibis communication, to make yonr Excellency a partv to the quarrel of General Sheridan and myself. It is foreign to the question at issue, which is, simply. If military commanders, under the la w of Congress, bare tbe right to remove civil officers, under the provisional governments of the States established thereby; or, in other words, if they possess any powers beyond those delegated in said act, and definitely ex-

pressed.

Knowing that this question touching the general powers of tbe military commanders, under particulars growing out of the frequent exercise of the removing power by General Sheridan, is now under consideration by tbe Attorney General, I respectfully submit the case of my removal in connection therewith as another instance of the Illegal exercises of

power by General Sheridan.

Believ ing the Importance of the question Involved will call forth an early decision, I have the honor to be your obedient servant,

J. Madison Wells,

Governor of State of Louisiana.

Defunct Nktiwnkl Bank Clrcnlktlnw. The story that secret arrangements have teen made between the Secretary -of the Treasury and certain national banks, under which these banks are to receive circulating notes tnitesd of broken bank bills, that they may redeem and present st tbe department, ts denied by authority. If any banks buy-

ing up tbe bills of delunct national banks, they do it of their own motion and at their own risk, and speculation In these bills is not countenanced by tbe department. The following is a list of national banks that have failed, and are now in the hands of a receiver, with tbe amount cf circulating notes isssued

to each;

ISi.uoo In addition to these, tbe First National Hank of Carondolet, Missouri, with a circulation of >25,500, and the First National Bank of Columbia, Missouri, with a circulation of >11,990, have taken up their bonds, and deposited lawful money in the railed States Treasury to the amount of their outstanding circulation. Here is an aggregate of eight hundred and thirty-two thousand four hundred and ninety dollars, which haa reverted to Government, upon the return and destruction of which an e«|ual amount of circulation will be at the disposal of the Comptroller of tbe Currency for distribution, according to ’.he terms and conditions prescribed in the National currency set. subject to the same rules as governed tbe distribution of the amount originally authorized by Congress. Quite a number of National banks have been organized, to which the Comptroller has not yet given any circulation, because the amount provided for by law la already out, and there arc many others that have received only a part of tbe amount to which they would,under other

*y would,uni

circumstances, be entitled. There la a pressing demand for more currency west of the Mississippi, particularly in Kansas, which be is anklous to meet, and be will do so as soon as a sufficient amount of tbe circulation of these broken banks has been restored.

From tbo St. Louts Republican. An Vnfkrtnnata .VIlstake-A I.orer Taken f«r n Burglar. It appears that in tbe northern quarter of this city ( we are properly vague as to the locality,, there lives a certain responsible and respt ( table citizen, who rejoices in the possession of a loving wife and a pretty, though somewhat sentimental daughter, fond of reverie ahd romance, moonlight and poetry.

quiet, staid sort of people, to whom it is rank, social heresy to go to bed later than ten, and who are accustomed to be up betimes in the morning. Tbe practice of tbe people in reference to going to bed st ten o’clock, was rightly

bad a lover, an honest," true-minded youth, who swore he loved her and swore the truth. It was rather bard of an evening when be had "dropped In” and they were just sailing down the stream of murmuring love vows to be interrupted by the hateful, hard-hearted old

clock striking the hour of ten.

Determined one evening this week to defeat the ironical old clock and outwit her unsympathising parents, our heroine devised a little plan very pretty and harmless by itself but which naughty Dame Fortune brought to a

climax of horrors.

The young gentleman made his expected ▼Uit and waa received with dignified sauvity by the father and mother and trembling joy-

fulness by the daughter. About nine and a half o'clock the old people went up stairs, cautioning their child ts go to bed st ten, an the lovers were left alone in their glory.

When ten spproached the maiden extingulsbed the lights, made tbe sounds of snuttinglbe doors and bidding farewell to her lover, and thus conveyed the impression to her watchful guardians up-stairs that she had gone to bed. But not so; while her father and mother were slumbering tbe "sleep of tbe just,” this daring damsel was sitting with her lover In the room below. The soft silver radiance of the moonlight floated in through the

window, the bush of night bad fallen over tbe

dis!

st

orally, we have no doubt, but “tne beating c their own hearts was the only sound the

world, and not even a distant snore from the om above the stairs disturbed the air. Dually, we have no doubt, but “the beating of

their own hearts was the only sound they beard.” How long they remained breathing promises and building plans for the future, and wondering what star would be their home “when love became immortal,” we know not, but it was after midnight when they bid (arewell. Tbe maiden let her lover out very silently and dosed the door without a sound and retired to dream over the success of her little stratagem. But alss, what a scene was transpiring outside. A watchful policeman saw tbe young man creeping out of tbe house, and hardly had the young ladv closed the door before the policeman pounced upon her lover and arrested him as a burglar. Tbe youth expostulated and denied the charge; but no, tbe officer was not to be humbugged. He caught him coming out of the house when all was dark inside, and he must have been on

some mischievous errand.

On their way to the station, the passionate earnestness of the alarmed youth produced an effect upon the mind of the officer, and he finally consented to return to the house, so that the owner might clear away suspicions If he could. Back they went, and the unfortunate young man was forced to awaken the whole family la order to procure his release. The old man was exceedingly crusty at being awaked up in the middle of tbe night, and much more to when he learned the facta of the case, and the scene tbat ensued may be easily imagined. But tbe release of tbe man was

soon secured.

PROSPECTUS. PROSPECTUS

OF THE

INDIANAPOLIS HERALD, ®mlly uad Weekly, for 1867. The great political questions which are to be discussed and decided during the coming year possess a general and absorbing interest. To secure an Intelligent verdict upon them, the public mind should be thoroughly informed upon the issues, and the best means of Information is *□ able and fearless press. Every Democrat should take a paper, especially one that enlightens him on the questions in which he is immediately in. teresfted. The Proprlcors ot the liKnaLn intend that it shall not only fully discuss the general issues before the country, but also those connected with State policy. There can be no more powerful agency in maintaining Constitutional Liberty than a ratz pbess, and it shall be the leading object of the Hkx*u> to advocate the equal rights and sovereignty of the States, in all powers not delegated to the Federal Government and the personal liberty of the citizen. The Hebald will oppose all usurpations of powers, whether in the Notional or State Governments, and insist upon the subordination of the military to the civil rule. It will advocate the restoration i>oHcy of I’xxsidxnt JoaNSON, the immediate admission of the Representatives of the Southern States in Congress. and a recognition of all the people of the States lately in rebellion, who have returned to their allegiance a* citizens, with the full rights and privileges of citizenship, in order to restore the pacification of the country and its former prosperity. The Uxbald will oppose negro sul frage and all attem to place political power in the hands of the block race.
