The total ordinary exponent of the General Government In 1$}0, actual payments, were 950,341,472 and la 1S6C lev precisely tha aame branches of the pnblte aervlaa they were and these amounts are axduttve of the Interest upon the public debt for bath years. The figures show that the expenses under a Republican administration of tbs Government aro more than six fold what they wars tinder a Democratic administration. The Republican National Convention which met in Chicago in 13fii) to nominate presidential candidates adopted the following resolution: •lietolved, That the people justly view with alarm tbo reckless extravagance which per* vades every department of the Federal Gov* eminent; that a return to rigid economy, la indispensable to arrest the systematic plunder of the public treasury by favored partisans: while the recent startling development of frauds and corruptions of the Federal Metropolis, show that an entire change of administration U imperatively demanded,” This resolution was passed,be It remembered by the Republican convention of 1360, when the expenses were less than one sixth what they wem In ISfifi. If reckless extravagance then pervaded every department ol the Government, what must have been the systematic plunder of the Treasury In ISfifi, and In fact during the whole Republican administration. A few days ago the Republicans of New York assembled In State convention, and In the pi <tform there was a resolutlo»** , ’~ , *~ *“ It to the one a J*r*« ”7 tt e Chicago Republican c invention In 1300, viewing with alarm the reckless extravagance which pervaded every department of the Government, and the systematic plunder of the public treasury, and demanding the stoppage of tho abuses and corruptions which were making taxation enormous and burdensome. But, it must be re-m-inhered, when the public expenditures on a peace basis Increased six fold and more, the administration of the Government was under the gpntrol of the party which, in 1300, Insisted that an entire change of administration wss imperatively demanded to secure a return to rigid economy and diminished expenses. if reform was necessary in 1800 to accomplish those ends, we ask the Journal if a change Is not more imperative now, to stop the enormous drains upon tbs public treasury and lessen tho burdens of the people, for these burdens bsve come upon the country while the Republican party has had full sway. - —— - Ha<1 leal Predictions. A few days before the election the Journal made the following predictions: “ Already gold Is going up and greenbacks aro depreciating. This is the work of the repudiating Democracy. Their defeat in the elections next Tuesday will add value to every dollar of currency In tbs pockets of the people. Their success will be followed by Increased distrust in financial circles both at home and abroad, and by a heavy fall In the value cf greenbacks.” The Journal quoted gold on that day, the 5tb instant, at 114%; on the 7th at 144%; on the Htb, tho day of the election, at 145%; and on the 9th, the day after the election, at 145. Its quotation yesterday morning was 144%. These figures show that the Journal Is not a safe prophet. The success of the Democracy in the elections of last Tuesday caused no distrust in financial circles, either at home or abroad, if the price of gold may be taken as the barometer to indicate tho feeling in financial circles. Gold did not appreciate, or was there a heavy fall In the value of greenbacks. The reverse Is the fact. On tho news of the Democratic successes In the elections of last Tuesday gold declined and greenbacks advanced. The people have gained by the success of the Democracy, and value was added to every dollar of currency in the pockets of the people. And If the administration of the Government should pass Into Democratic bands to-morrow, such Is the confidence of the people In the administrative ability of the grand old party .under whose rule tho country prospered and progressed In wealth, power and Individual liberty as no other nation ever did, that gold would steadily decline and paper increase in value, until they would approximate very nearly to a common standard. And why? The success of the Democratic party would be a guarantee of peace, of reconciliation, of justice to all of the sectional interests of the country, of stability and a wise administration of the Government, The elections of last Tuesday are the best evidence that the people have no confidence in radical rule and that thsy hall with joy the prospect of a return to a more sagacious and economical management of our public affairs. Tlte Pnfeltc Deht. Tho Journal, In Hs Issue of yesterday, and in view of the recent official expression of the sentiment of the people at tbe polls In both

States, says:

"In Ohio and Indiana the Democrats courted popular support by proposing to confiscate the public debt.” Tho Democrats of Ohio and Indiana propose no such thing. The confiscation of the debt has not been suggested, but Its payment according to law is the policy they advocate. They can not see the propriety of paying an amount equal to the debt several times in Interest, without diminishing the principal, and for generations to come to mortgage the labor of the country with tbe payment of one hundred and fifty millions of Interest in gold annually. twice as much as the entire expenses of the Government under the last Democratic administration. Neither can Ohio and Indiana Democrats perceive any financial wisdom In paying the Interest upon three hundred millions of bonds for tire benefit of the national banks, a bonus for famishing a currency for the country In tbe place of greenbacks, but bated upon precisely the same security, the fatih of the Government, and Of holding a balance in tbe treasury of one hundred millions, which might be applied In the purchase of bonds and stop the Interest upon that amount of dsbt. So far tbe Democrats of Ohio and Indiana ars In favor of confiscating tbs public debt, and ff four hundred milllona of bonds were thus confiscated, as might be done, it would save to the taxpayers annually twenty-four millions In gold, more than twice as much as the entire State, eounty, local and municipal taxation In Indiana. Tbe radical bondholders and bondholders’ apologists may not think this sum worth saving, but the

people do.

——

Precept ve. Practice.

Governor Cox, of Ohio, recently made a speech at Cleveland, in which he argued that the proposition to pay the national debt In greenbacks was virtual repudiation. Without stopping to discuss the truth or falsity of the position, the Columbus OritU put theee

qusstlons to the Governor:

M As tbe chief Executive of the State, have you not for two years stood bv and allowed the creditors of Ohio to be paid by yoar subordinate State officers In greenbacks, sometimes not worth more more than fifty cent# on the dollar, tbe Interest on the State bonds that were eontraetpd In gold, paid for logold, and promised scMMlyte be repaid fa Mint cur.

Tine Ohio Election.—A Columbus correspondent of the Cincinnati Enquirer, says fall retarns and reported majorities give Hayes 1,780 majority. The amendment is defeated by 00,000, so badly In fact that It is

lost sight of in the calculation.

“ save me from my friends.” •

Weakness of the Radical Leaders.— The Cincinnati Commercial has come to the conclusion that so far as radicalism Is concerned "there has been too much of the good thing.” Discussing the recent canvass in

Ohio and results, It remarks:

"But there Is a popular weariness as to

fighting the old battles of tbe war over all the time. There are some other things to think about. We begged Ben. Wade to stop the torrent of personal vituperation and personal violence long enough to talk a little about some of the new issues which were particularly Important here.'Nothing could begot out of him but the same old ding dong. The third officer of the Government, Mr. Speaker Colfax, gave us but a very small amount of Instruction In proportion to the latitude and longitude of his discourse, and Indulged In an unseemly and untimely tnrest of hanging tbs first offloer of tb* Government. The efficacy of such Indiscreet harangues Is seen In the election returns from Ohio. Something be-

side war talk will be wanted hereafter. "No one need deny that there is a reaction

against the radical policy of making black States in the South, coupled with tbe most reprehensible carelessness In financial legislation, save where care Is taken to favor special Interests, and a terribly profligate system of appropriation. Within a few weeks Congress meets. There will be those so demented that they will rush forward—‘’jump ahead,” as Ben. Wade says—take a leap In the dark in further proscriptive legislation, confiscating Southern estates, impeaching the President, and all that sort of thing. It will not do.

The “Glories” of War.—We saw yesterday upon the streets an unfortunate man, who was limping from door to door upon one leg and two crutches, bearing In hie hand a card, upon which was pointed the story of his misfortunes, the “fscU” sustained by two well known signatures. The poor fellow wafted by the breeze of patriotic emulation, and amid the popular outcry of “down with the rebellion—save the Union—cling to the eld flag— and a thousand other similar ejaculations of patriotic devotion, had entered tbe army, followed it in its terrible march from Chattanooga to the banks of the Cbattahooebie, fought side by side with thousands of those whose remains have been glorified, and monuments erected to their memories, costing thousands of dollars; yet tbe poor, maimed sub-division of one, who shews the empty leg of nis trow sen that be was just as faithful to

A Large Snake.—A couple of gentlemen of tbis city, while hunting quail yesterday, near Silver Creek, on the rear end of the premises of Mrs. Grayson, shot and killed a snake thirteen feet long, and measuring eighteen Inches around the thickest part of tha body. The snake is snppoeed to be what ia known as a bull snake. It was shot four times before It was killed. Its carcase may be seen at the upper blacksmith shop on Market street. Such monster snakes are rare ia this section of the country. It Is the Intention of Us captors to take off the skin and stuff and preserve it.—

Greenbacks a Legal Tender for Borrowed Gold.—Many persons contend that where a person has loaned gold on a contract that the money loaned shall be repaid in gold, tbe party so loaning can not be compelled by the borrower to take legal tender notes In payment. This is a great mistake, and we have several decisions of supreme courts in different States in favor of the legality of the payment of legal tender paper. But we have a case right here at home. A son of Jacob Blume, cf Harrison eounty, loaned, before the issue of legal tender currency, one hundred dollars in gold to Paul Seig, also of Hmrrtaon county, on a contract, by note, that the money was to be paid In gold. Both young- Blume and Seig died. Jacob Blume aettling ib«' -on’s estate, and William Porter, a lawyer at i vrydon, settling Seig’s estate. When Jacob Blume presented the one hundred dollar note given by Seig for the gold borrowed of Blume’s son for payment. Porter refused to pay the note In gold as contracted by Seig, and compelled Blume to take his pay in legal tender notes. These notes are, to all intents and put puma, “a legal tender for all debts, public and private, except duties on Imports and interest on tbe public debt,” and it Is so expressed on the back of every legal tender note ever issued.—

From the Anti-Slavery Standard of last week. The Radical Abolition View ol tlie October Election*. It seems probable that tbe elections In Pennsylvania and Ohio yesterday, Tuesday, were substantial triumphs for the negro bating Democracy. We are not surprised at this result, though the loss, especially of the amendment In Ohio, we greatly deplore. It puts in still greater jeopardy our own in this State, whenever it shall be submitted for a vote; it endangers a similar amendment now pending In Kansas, and more than all it will affect very unfavorably the still unsettled problem of tbe political relations of the negro In the final reconstruction of the South. With the large registration of whites, though the aetaal majority vote cast may call for a convention, It is likely, In several States to be a minority of all those registered, end therefore Ineffectual. In this way congressional reconstruction is to be again checkmated. What greater encouragement do negro hating Southernew need than the adverse vote of Ohio, with snch a President in tbe White House, to da all they possibly can to resist the establishment of a government In the South which shall place the blacks upon an equality with tbe whites? We do not doubt the ultimate complete tn* umpb of our cause. But we see In the timid and shiftless maneuvering of fiepabneaa managers criminal blundering which, If It involved only themselves In disappointment, we should not particularly regret. But in the two political division* created by the circumstances of the revolution through which we are paeelng.lt Is the misfortune of the situation that their criminal foHy inflicts needless and most cruel suffering, even Unto death, or living tortares worse than death, upon thousands of victims, white and Mack, throughout the South, and greatly embarrass the program of our cause in the North. The Republicans of Massachusetts, in their late Worcester convention, over which Mr. Wilson presided, paved the wav for the Ohio defeat by their non committal atutode In regard to negro suffrage as ;a vitally Important question. Such a course was but a part of tbe WUson-Feasen-den Republican policy. The Republicans of this SUteresolved definitely and unqualifiedly la favor of negro suffrage, but tbe action of the representatives of the party at tbe Albany convention, In postponing the subject beyond the November election neutralizes the moral effect of tbe Syracuse resolution. The Republicans of Pennsylvania meanly dodged the issue, tbe significance of which, as connected with national politics, they fully understood.

vital work. It Is to remodel tbe reconstruction of the South, so as to couple with Impartial suffrage, universal amnesty. We use Greeley’s words, and they are golden onesThen Congress must address itself with extraordinary energy to the financial questions.” Why it was Lost.—The Cleveland Ueraid, radical, gives the following sensible reason for the defeat of the amendment in that

State:

“ There Is one feature in the defeat of this amendment which deserves consideration. We have been very much deceived in that vote, as we thought the amendment would fall through Indirection—that is, the failure to vote either way would defeat It. But the result shows that “the noes have It by the sound;” that it Is defeated by direct votes against it, showing that It was lost, not because men did not care enough about th3 question to vote upon It, but because they are directly opposed to It.” —The words of ex-President Franklin Pierce, at Concord, In response to the call of his friends and neighbors, are full of weight and truth:—“ I warn you, my fnends,” said he, “to note the tact that these triumphs, whatever they may he, are no party triumphs. Tbe people have risen in their majesty, with a consciousness ol their power, and disregarding party lines and party aspirations, have been silently considering what belongs to them, their children and their country.” —A dispatch from Washington to a radical paper says: “Perhaps the greatest feature of the discussion Is that pertaining to the impending Presidential campaign. The Colfax, Chase and Grant men express their views freely. The former two do not favor the abandonment of manhood suffrage, but such Republicans as support Grant for President declare that tbe result in Ohio shows that tbe suffrage plank must be omitted at the next Republican convention. ^ The Washington Star, the largest circulated’paper here, and radical in politics, sounds the key note of this latter course.” This exemplifies the great moral consistency of the radicals. They have used the negro for their aggrandizement as long as he can be employed for their benefit, and now are preparing to drop him. The widest circulated radical paper In Washington—bought up with congressional largesses “sounds the key note of this course.” Poor Sambo! Year present masters are more ungrateful than your

former owners.

—The Legislature of Pennsylvania will stand as follows: Senate, 20 Republicans, and 13 Democrats; House, 54 Republicans,

and 46 Democrats.

—Advices from Minnesota are cheering and foreshadow a triumph of the Democrats. The news from Massachusetts even is gratifying. Thousands of conservatives, who have not voted for years, will cast their Influence against the negro shrlekers, whose majority will be greatly cut down.

Al! questions of policy were treated with contempt.

The first result of such a course is to make the party which adopts it corrupt—

and the next Is to make it weak.

The Republican party is admonished by the State elections that have just occurred, that they must reform their action ia these respects. The people will not sanction the courses which %ave been marked out for them. They have too much at stake in the peace, order and prosperity of the country to put them all at h ixzard, for tbe protit of partisans or the pleasure of political theorists. No party can long retain power which seeks it solely for Its

selfish advantage. *

• From the New York Herald.

Our people are too sensible to let the power •lip out of their bands so quickly. The elections In California and Maine denoted the fact that the people were beginning to reason over tbe mad acts of a Congress as well as of an Execntivo that cookl not understand their destras. Tbe two Mates namid were only the prefaen to the tatting rebuke which we are now giving to our unworthy rulers. Pennsylvania and Ohio, potent tn tbc list, wheel Into line and add their voices to the general outcry against misgovernment. New York, soon to come to-the trial by vote, will dvubtless follow the example tet by tbe former States. The whole country. In fact, is tired of this crushing process of reconstruction, which weighs with equally destructive power upon both North and South. Tbe Warren Hastings rule of India may have suited that country ; the Roman provincial system m iy have be*a adapted to the ignorance ot two thousaaUt

~ Intelligence

-SHanot cud will not bear snch rule. There have not been men wanting in the radical party to recognize that their power waa bat short lived unless they could throw some great ignorant element into the existiog intel-

ligence of the country.

This element, the negro, they have seized upon and have, by superhuman exertions, floated him to the surface. Less buoyant than tbe elements around him, he can only be held up until his own specific gravity overcomes our power to- sustain him. That failing, he must sink to the level to which bis talent fits him, and from which, little by little gaining light, he may rise by his own intrinsic value. To ding to tbe negro we must sink to his level; by doing which we shall not elevate him but debase ourselves. It has taken some time for the people to appreciate these facte, but that they now are fully alive to them Is undoubted. They see that they have beat deceived by the political demagogues who have held the negro up an the main element in our revolution when he was only a minor issue. The revulsion of feeling, we regret to say, will, for the moment, be unfortunate for the black man; but this ia tbe Unit of his fanatical Mends who have forced him upward to a point where he can not balance himself.

From the New York World.

It U high time for a voice so potent to make Itself beard. Our sons were led by thousands to fruitless slaughter—yet it was dumb. Heaping up. to mortgage the industry and abridge the joys of ourselves and our children and our children’s children, rose a mountain of debt—yet it was dumb. Two years of peace, which failed to restore the Union; were added to the four years of war which failed, and like those years, were spent by shameless partisans in plana to prolong their hold upon power they had usurped—power prostituted to the stirring up anew of strife which had ended; prostituted to the imposition of a military despotism upon ten sovereign States; prostituted to tbe crushing down of an already conquered people—our brethren, our kinsman—and to the lifting up Into sole supremacy there of an ignorant, degraded race; prostituted to the crippling of northern industry by reckless taxes and monstrous “ protective” tariffs, and to tbe throttling of southern Industry by the denial of order and law under which U might ere this have well revived; prostrated to the denial of any reconstruction laws for months, and then to the framing of such as would longest postpone their pretended purpose, and then to the heaping of obstructions, restrictions, and penalties upon

these—yet still tt was dumb.

Long suffering and patient, indeed, with their servants have the Northern people been. High time indeed wss it that tbe puissant voice of these their masters should be heard; 1 saying, as Pennsylvania and Ohio have said, and New York will say: Let strife cease; let peace prevail: Let law revive: Let the

in a most disreputable manner they refused first to submit the question at all, and toes, to view of what Congress, under military rule, dictated for the South, they felt constrained to reconsider their previous action, and to change front in tbe face of the enemy, with this manifest timidity and insincerity they were to no

condition to win vietory.

In all this an absolute neeesefty is made apparent for continued hard work on the part of all abolitionists and slncare radicals everywhere. It Is demonstrated that our eaase can not be safely entrusted to political adventurers, however loud their professions of fidelity to the doctrine of negro equality. Radical, perslsteat agitation must be oentinned. Uader the operations of the war power we have made rapid strides. That power is not, and ought not to be perpetual to a fooe government. If, as the heat of battle subsides, tt Is found that tbe average opinion of the country Is below the point to which.

Heglstrattnn in Georgia — Fraud in Uetnrn*. The returns of registration in Georgia show that 93,417 blacks nave been registered. In commenting on this fact the Chronicle and Sentinel says: The retains of the recent registration in this SUte, as published semi-oificially in the radical organs at Atlanta, show very conclusively that at least twenty thousand more negroes have been registered than are now resident tntbe State,entitled to registration under tbe Sherman bill and supplement, while the white list shows that a great many more have been excluded from registration than should h%ve been under 4 fair interpretation and execution of the military bills. According to tbe census of the State taken by the United States Government in I860, the nlatlon was at that time, 591,583; blacks , The majority of the whites was 127,386. By toe tax returns made under oath -tomyear and forwarded to the Comptroller General’s office there were but 65,908 male negroes In toe State between the ages of 20 and 60 yean. We presume that those between 20 find 21 waa about nearly equal To the number over 60. This would give a voting population to the State of Uegroes a little upward of 65,000. It n well known that thousands perished daring and since the war, and that tbe emigration from the thin won lands of Middle and Eastern Georgia, since May, 1865, has been very large. More than one-half of this were negro men. We have no bat that a fair census of these people, taken, to-day, would allow a falling off of at lane! atxta-flre or seventy thousand since toe census of I860, from the causes which we have just stated. Many negroes have registered twice, and thousands have registered who were not twen-ty-one ysnre eld. We saw, ourselves, in the lew misntas that w# were detained to registering our ewn name, a negro boy; evidently not more than sixteen years of age, register, and who aware be wee twenty-one.
