A Compliment to Mr. Hendricks. During "the jdiscussion of the Gorgia bill in‘the' Unjled States Sennte, on tlhe 15th inst, Judge Edmunds, of Vermont, ; -ret‘urred‘f to ex Senator Hendricks,: and his receut speech at New Orleans, in the following complimentary terms.: ' “One ol the: most hdpeful signs of the future of the Sonth, as'it appears to me, I “draw from an incident that [ saw by the pupers occurred in New Orleans the other day, where a respeeted late fellow Senator - of outs, one of the ehief: vrnaments of the Demogratic party, addressed a great body of his Democratic fellow citizens in that: city. He is a gentleman whom I expect to be the next Democratic candidate for President ; and I am bound to say for his sake and for the sake of the country that if we must have a Democratic President ~=which may God forbid—we could not bave a more aceeptable gentleman personnally.” | 2 : : .

© " THE sAME oLb sone. ~ Whenever the leaders of the republican ! party and the editors of radical newspa- [ per organs become hard pushed for material wherewith to urge opposition 1o g restoration of democratic nscendancy, they invariably revert to the stale and thyeadbare subject of “disloyalty.” e -much more convenient to g inq out % ; song to that same old tune tf;an to braveLy meet the issues of to- 4ao that it is not At all surprising t 0 g, tno conductors of fadical sheets 8V .iling themselves of the Aformer. It 1o quires no ability, no. argument to B ¢ their readers to any q'lfiflti' 'ty of ®ig effervescible matter. An imM€ se supply, in every conceivable shape, sat their command. It has been dished |up by corfupt demagogues, broken-d>wn -political ‘hacks, sycophantic hypoerites, ' public plunderers; it has served to shield f'tlte‘vilest scoundrels from just punishimont: }‘“‘ has been and continues to be used to cover up every species of rascalil ty. Is it any wonder, then, that with the advent of aother political -contest the ~operators of the various “county organs” catch up the inspiration of the “key-note” sounded, by their chief, Moxa Morton, and apply themselves to a vigorous turning of the crank on that well worn muchine. The thundering chorus is intend- 1 ed to drown the voice of reason —to ex- | clude from the gar of a saffering people f the truths that menace the continnance of | radical power. The cry for bread, the ‘ demand for relief from burdensome taxa- i tion, the complaints of farmers and me- | chanics are sought to be hushed by thut i familiar tune that has, for many years, ! proved so efficacious in procuring a new lense for the demagogues .who annually reward theiconfidence of their ‘constitu: ents by treachery and deceit. Whether the thinly-disguised frand can be carried to a successful termination at this late pericd, we are of course unable to fore | tett. Our provinCe isto tear away the veil that bides the hideous monster ; to expose to a shamefully deceived people the deviltry perpetrated under the guise nf’ “loyalty,” and to pave the way for a calm, unprejudiced consideration of the ques- | tions to-be determihed at the ballot-box., next Octoker. ’ : i)

In this connection we cannog s:ibsarve our purpose better than bx, guoting at length from the splendid speech, recently delivered in Congress by, the Hon, W. E. Niblack, the able, representative from the First Indiana Ristrict. - His are words of sobernesg, tinth, and unafieccted patriotism. Fhey cannot fail to convisce all Wl are susceptible of conviction that the charge of “disloyalty,” so unfairly and indiscfimina:cly applied to the democrat ic party as a political organization, is not only a maliciows falsehood but a deep, damning injustice to the thousands ani hundreds of thousands of true and patri otic men who are identified withthe Dem ocracy of the Union. A proper and judicious distinction is made by Judge Niblack In_ referring to the conduet of ‘an overwhelming majority of the democratic party and that ot the comparatively szl '-fi',u'h’xber of impruacticable theorists. who, by their foolish and indiscreet whterances, bave afforded so much capital, to radical demagogues. We ‘quote’ from the Congressional Globe : i : :

~ When gentiemen wpon cthe other side are driven to any explanation as to the farge expendituses. whieh this Govern ment has had to make from time'to time during the Inst few years, and when they cah finek no.othar veply to make to charg o 8 of extravagance and profligacy in the expendituré ot the public money, they i most universally attempt to shield tnems sclves behind the allegation on their part that these expenditures have beea. made neceesary by the.condnctof the Democratic party antecedent to and during the war.

Now, sir, I am willing o concede at the outset that the Demoesatic party have nad its fuff share of the mistortunes that have befallen partiesin this country. I am willing to concedg. also that some ten years ago we became. disorganized and disrupted, if you please, over the question of slavery which then assumed to be and became such a scrious question in American_politics, Tam willing to concede. further, sir_ that from that, time to the pres: ent we have been drifting along in a frag mentary condition, the sport of nearly every adverse fortune, and with very little influence in giving dirgetion to public atfairs, nton » ‘I am furtber wiliing to concede that during these weary ten years of trouble, of disorganigation, and war, many follies, even crimes, if you please, have been committed by men claiming to be leaders in the Democratic party, I grant very freely that our criticisms have been very severe at times, and often quite irritating to our opponents. I grant also that theories concerning the war, 'both before and after its' commencement, sometimes advanced by us, often failed to be verified because for one reason, we had no means or power of testing them. And perhaps if they had Leen tested some of them might have been found impracticable. I grant also that.we were often possessed of a gloomi ness and foreboding as to' the results of the war which amounted almost to despair. But what of all that? Did. not ‘gentlemén on the other.side make mis‘takes too—mistakes mote terrible in their conscquences, because they had power to direct and command? Pledges, both by Congress and persons high in official po‘sition, were given 'as to the ' mannér of ‘prosecuting the war, as well as to the pur- - poses for which it should be prosccuted, - which were never fulfilled.

Suppose some of our leaders did not say just the wisest or most prudent thing at some critical time; 2oncede that s»me “of our conventions'did not prove to be a -success either in the character of their proceedings or the results which followed them, then what shall we infer? Certain1y not that we did not wish well of the ’cnuntry. and were not willing to serve ber to the utmost of our ability when we weresatisfied how we could best do 89— These things on both sides only prove that we are all but fullible men at best. - But, sir, whatever mistakes, whatever crimes, if you please, you may allege or prove against individual members of our organization, the masses of the party never wavered in thieir gllegiance to the Gov ernment or in théir submission to laws for ‘its preservation. - e # >:- “ * * And now, sir, if the history of this war -shail ever be faithfully written, as * trust it will be, it will be recorded that what. _ever they may have thought of the neces ity of a war at that particular time, snd however much they may bave deplored its -exfetenpe, yet when the war did come the Demacratie mggses gave it a support which is unpraccdmtcd‘gyt!;a gonduct of any ‘other Opposition party in- timse «f war on this continent. Indeed, I might say anywhere among the civilized nations of the -world.” Por ths resylt of the war, in my judgment, we are more fndebfed to the energy, patriotism, and never-cegsing tenacity of the whole prople of the Eghéb ing States of this (&liyh than to great statesmansbip or generalship among. our leaders of that time. - Buch contribntions, such acts of self sacrificing devotion have

’ been seldom practiced by any people, and (in all these the Democratic masses bore a liberal, even more, & generous part. . We can, thercfore, as a general rule afford ta pass by, if not with contempt, at lenst in silence, the charges made to the i:coumu-y; ‘and when gentlemen repeat these eh. rges against the Democratic party ‘they are like stock actors—repeat only what they bhave committed to memory . ~merely, and nothing which either chai- | lenges the reason,the common sense, or { the sense of justice of the American people, " el B i A - . Another mistake they usually ‘commit in talking about the record of the Demo | cratic party.is, they assume that everybody | not in full communion with tbe radical ] Republican party have been and still are | members|of the Demoeratic party; when in truth and in fact & very large portion of the population of this country have not for more than nine years pist pretended i to have any particular party affiliation at all, and a large’portion of the people have not any to:day. Why, sir, san organiza. tion we are not any more ‘Tesponsi sle tor what was done by the people of the South . —those who went into secession, I mean —thkan we were responsible foy what any class of men may have done in che Dominion of Canada either dufing or since the' war. - A very' distingnished: gentleman who was connécted with the confederate congress daring the war said to me the other day, “When we left the Union we left the Democratic party at the same time, and though we were whipped back into the Union we have never reunited with | the Democratic party, and are ‘simply ; waiting the course of events.” Andsuch ; is really the |condition of | things with a i large class of people in the extreme south- { ern States to day. L i

‘Desertions from the Radical ‘Camep. - The Logansport Pharos concains a most glorious report of conversions to the dem~ocratic faith in different parts of the State. We quote the tollowing from its columns: Jobn Saxon, a leading and influentinl citizen of Jackson twp., in Miami county, publishes a card in the last week’s issue of the Miami Sentinel, in which he gives ‘notice that he has voted the Radical ticket for the last time, and that hereafter he intends using his'influence for the success of the Demoeratic party. We are informed thas Mr. Saxon has been a lead ing member of the radical party in Miami county, and: that he will take with him not less than twenty votes. Lt One of the most prominent Germans in the Stste, a gentleman whom we have known long and well as an active and influential Republiean, informed us last week thag be could no langer vote the Radical ticket, and, he added, “that in his county (Marion) a large number of Re publican Germans would vote the Democratie ticket this full.” M

In this connty, in one family, ‘there are three voters who will hiereafter support the nominees and principles of the Dema: cratic party at the polis, who formerly voted the Radieal ticket.

And this is the feeling everywhere.— “The multitude is.patient to a certain point.” With the Radical party that point has heen reached and past, and the people are beginning to grow weary of such things as a protective tariff, high taxation, negro suffrage, and a bonded debt, the interest and principal of which is payable in gold. : From other quarters also come the most cheering reports. The Monticello Constututionalist, forinstance, says thata numbez of Republicans in thas (Whité) county refuse to support the Radical State] ticket on account o the negro equality doctrines of the State €onvention. : In Floyd county there are not less than two hundred Republicans who will refuge to vote the Radical negro equality ticket—amo‘iag the number many of the heretofore most active workers in that party. : ot Tae Terre Haute Jeurnal says the de feetion trom the Radical party in Vigo eounty, on account of that party's advocacy of the Fifteenth ‘Amendment, can be’ counted by hundreds. “Many ot them are gentlemen who fought the rehellion through on’ the Union side, and sincé its close have worked for and voted with the Republican party.” : . : Repudiation in Towa. ; Meetings in favor of repudiating the bonded debt were recently held at Coun cil Bluffs and at Ottumwa, both of which are stated to have been “large, enthusias: tic, harinonious, and unanimous for repudiation.” At the Council Bluffs meecting the audience is said to have been composed of at least one-third Republicans *who demanded repudiauob as a reparation due the people for their wrongs."— The Ottumwa meeting is represented as having been one of the largest gatherings ever held in that city. = “ It was made up “of old farmers: who had not been at a “political . meeting for years. The hall “was packed, and the people could not “find accommodations, such is the feeling “on the frontier in regard to the public *debt. ' Timid politicians trembled. The “leading Democratic presses of the State, “with the Republicans, disclaimed repu“diation and deneunced it. Notwith ‘“standing all this want of encoul;ugemevnt, ‘“the people came in crowds, without re“gard to party, and passed a declaration “af principle” demanding repudiation.— The resolutions were forwarded to Ben. Batler, who had promised to present them to’ C’Qng}'esa; Henry Clay Dean was the principal spokesman at both meetings.

The Evansville Courier thus reters to this movement: ; “ Such meetings are just now making a beginning. -The people out west are tax"ed to death to pay the bondholder in gold, ~while he rolling in wealth, pays no taxes ~at all upon his riches- This is but the first rambling of the distant thunder, and - bondholders had better put their houses in order. The American people are going to'tax those bonds and redeem them in ' the republican legal tender notes or they - will pay neither pringipal or intergst.” . Whether we like it or not, there is no doubt that the doctrine of repudiation is | steadily gaining ground. | Who knows but that Ben. Butler will ’ere long be its ‘ most active champion ? e T el & R ———e—- ! The Income Tax Law Repoaled. There is a serious misapprehension in the public mind in relat on to the inccme tax. Petitions are being sent to Wash. ington for the repeal of the law. Itshoud be distinctly understood that the income t3x |3w was repealed by limitation on the 81st . day of December, 1869. The tax now being assessed is _flnr the year 1849. After it is paid, no other income tax can be collected or aswessed without the enactment of an entirely new law, which is not likely to be brought about. The repesl of the old law is final and unconditional, Tt takes effect g 8 soon as the tax. for 1869 is paid. A bill passed thie Houso under the previous guestion gag rule a few days ago,” providing for the assessmert and collection.of an income tax for one ycar only {1370), but it met with disastrons defeat i the Benste It is not at all likely that Congress wili put sugh g needless barden upon the people again in_ face of the unanimous pratest of the entire press of the eolintry. The occasion that called for it hiag pagsed away forever.— Let us have no moge income tax laws.— N. Y. Horald, A ;

One of the members of Congress from the same State, Mr. Degener, also is a German. | The German element predominates in Western Texas. ~ The temperance advocates of Massachu#ctts have determined to start a party of ‘their own, and have cut loose from both the Democrats and the Radicals.

Here is a specimen of that “indiscriminate pufiing,” which, we regret to notice, is s 0 extensively indulged in by a portion of the public press: :

“Whilst we have reason to believe the Plain Dealer will lose none of its interest by this change, we regret to. part compa ny with Judge Knight, who ig regarded by all who know him, as not only a kind, courteous.and true christian gentleman, but'one of the hblest writers and most practical journalists of Northern Indiana.” For nearly two years we have been an attentive.reader of the Plain Dealer, and if Judge Knight during that period gave evidence of being “one of the ablest writers and most practical journalists,” it en tircly escaped pur obscrvation. To us the Plain Dealer app'e?red to be one of the dulles®. papers -among all of our exchanges; and tg bestow so high an eunlogium upon & person who scarcely ever advanced an original practical idea, detracts ¥rom the merits of complimentary notices ithat are often deserved by the fraternity.-

Taney—Stanton. : The payment. of $5,000, equivalent to a year's salary as an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court, was voted by the House yesterday to the widow of the late E€win M. Stanton. Mr. Van Trump, of Ohio, again objected..—XN. Y. Tribune. The World thius very appropriately comments on the ahove: : : “Roger B. Taney was Chief Justice of the United States for nearly a qu rter of a century. He!entered upon the dutjes ot the office a poor man in a pecuniary sense, and when death removed him he left his family of daughters literally without a penny. Two of the daughters, we have been infored, were, and we think now are, clerks in one of the departments, earning & livelihood. Mr. Stanton left a wife, 8 son full of health and grown to manhood, and ' some sgventy or eighty thousand dollars available property, to say nothing of a~fortune in addition rais ed by private shbscription. s “What would the 77ribune say to a proposition to Appropriate from the puhblic tunds money to pay a year’s salary, as Chief Justice, to the daughters of the late ‘Roger B. Taney?"” ; ; The House, true toits squandering habits, passed the $5,000 resolution on the 14th inst, and| the Senate concurred the day following., Tt is, in plain terms, just so much stolen from the public treasury.

| Honor to Whom Honor is Due, { Qur contemporary of the Evansville ! Courier gives éxpressi»on to a generous sen- ‘ timent, and mi]e which we, emphatically i endorse, in saying that “there scems to be some redeeming features about John A 1 Logan, in spité of his apostacy. While a part of the committee ‘engaged in the in- ! vestigation of the cadetship frauds, and one of them we are sorry to say is a representative from Indiana, favored a whitewashing process in the case of the re. nowned Roderjck R. Butler, of Tennessee, Gen. Logan promptly offered a resolution to expel Mr. Butler. He has been found guilty of specalating in cadetships, and his villainy is just as black as that of ‘Whittemore and Deweese. Let him go overboard. And let Gen, Logan have the credit for this ‘movement in the right direation” ooiih e , : The ¥rice of Ment. The N. Y.

| CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDINGS. } Tuespay, March 15.—How to radicalize Georgia was the theme in the Senate to-day. Mr. Edmunds madean able specch aginst the bill. He had the Bnne&ey to proclaim that it was better that Georgia should go Democratic ‘ten thousand times dver than that such a precedent as the bill proposed should be established, Mr. Drake offered an amendment to enable legi?l’atui'cs and governors of reconstr: cted | States to call upon the- President for troops, and to declare martial law in disaffected districts. This proviso is marvellously like the bill just introduced; into the British Parliament to keep down;lreland. The Sgaixatg Pas.séd the HnußJ bill to present Mrs. Edwin M. Stanton with a yeat's pay of an associate justice.. Our | Indian policy was diccussed, and' several t Sepators defended the Quaker policy of the President. | The Funding bill passed | by the Senate: was introdaced in the House | of Representatives, and after discussion was referred to the Ways and Menns Com‘mittee. The House then pnssed'the bill .mtrpduced by General fßutlmg. from the ’ Reconstructinn C()mlnitiee, admitting the State of Texas to representation in Conf gress. . Lo

WEDNESDAY, March 16.—The Sgnate galleries were crowded with Vthef)lack and white Radicals to listen to the first speech ever-delivered ih the Chamber by a negro. The Georgia bill being under considera tion” Revels, the cinnamon colored Sena tor from Mississippi, took the floor. He read from manuscript, and, though the

common repott is that the speech was pre-| pared for him by Governor Bullock, C. 8., of Georgia, it.contained nothing beyond the merest commonplaces. Upo;l its conclusion, several Radical Senators Hcrmi'ded around the ‘negro, and coffered their con gratulations, and Senator Morton followed with a declaration that the Senate, in exchanging Jefferson Davis for Revels, lest nntbhing in ability and gained vastly in patriotism and loyalty. The House took up and passed the Deficiency bill. = Two reports were received from the Committee on Military Affuirs relative to the ‘case of Roderick R. Batler, Tennessee scalawag, convicted of selling a cadetship. * One report, signed by four Radicals, recommended admonition ; the other signed by Generals Logan, Morgan, and Slocum, and Mr. Cobb—two Democrats and two Radicals—recommended expulsion. . The tar ift bill was debated, Mr. Blair (Rad.), of Michigan, in.support, and Mr, Wirans (Rad.), of Obio, for free trade. = Tuurspay, March 17.—In' the Senate, there was a debate em a resolution offered by Mr. Carpenter for thé more equal distributation sufmng the States of clerkships in the government departments, ‘n the course of which, Mr. Saw¥er, of South Carolina, rebelliously, demanded s large share of government pap for the Southern tarpet-baggers.. Mr. Rice introduced a bill to ()fganfzc a new territory out of the Indian territory, to be called Ok la hé» ma, and to consolidate the Indian tribes in it under territorial government. Tbe Georgia bill was then discussed until the hour of adjournment. | The feature in the House of chrcsént-.ative_s was the proceed ing in the case of Roderick R. Butler, the Tennessee Radical ‘convicted of taking msney for a cadet appointment. General Logan’s report in favor of expulsion received 8 vote ayes, 101 ; nays, 61; and, there not being a two-thirds vote in favor. of the report, the expalsion fell through, Then, on motion of Mr. Stoughten, the House passed a mild resolution .of cen sure. The case of Butler wageven worse than that of Whittemore, and if the House is justified in condoning it, ‘then 1t has manifestly been unjust towards Witte more.. The sudden spasm of virtue is over—besides, the exposure of the rascalities of Radical carpet baggers was begin ning to tell against the party. The House continued the diseussion on the tariff in Committee of the Whole, and an evening sesston was also held for speech-making.

FRripAY, March 18.—The bill to perpetuate Radical rule in Georgia was akain before the Senate to-day. Mr. Wilson offered an amendment providing outright for the prolongation of the Radical Legislature for two years. Mr. Schurz made a calm, ' temperate speech against the swindle, and was supported by Messrs, Trumbnll, Edmunds and Williams, The champions of the bill to day were Drake, Sherman, and Wilson. An amendment by Drake contemplates the use of the mil itary, the declaration of martial law, the suspension of the writ ot habeas corpus and the levying of the expenses upon the white people.
