It points out the road-on which we are travelling. It may, in the first place, open the eyes of quarr relime Republicana to the "mischief they ira really doing. In the next place it may .serve to warn Republicans everywhere that the apathy into which they are .now sinking has a tendency to prove latal lo the principles for which they have been*contending lor so many yeare. * [Prom the New York' Herald.] .

Nothing short of shooting j i half tr dozen Southern mi 1 lion aire J at thednim-1 head vnli- awe the Ku-Klux into submission. There seems uo likelihood of such vigor either r I iii-Cougress or at the White House. The Santo Domingo collar, .oo Senatorial necks- shows | that they belong to a mau who hus' entered on j the-ooTTPse where 'Andrew Johnson perished, j How" Jar he inlands to advocate on thut pal li- I way he does not himself now. know. But the descent is fatally easy. We did - not expect much from -General Grant. But when he so I unexpectedly arose to the'level of statesman ship In the matter of the fiiteenth amend- { ment and of the Indians, we smothered I all our -doubts and gave hit. large eon- j fldence. The last lew months, capped by I thia Insolent interference with Congress, re veals the man.*-We persisted in believing that I MT. Motley was removed l'Or adequate cause until Mr. Secretary Fish's clumsy" letter dis- I pellet! the illusion". That act, seen, lu the light of this attack on Mr. Sumner, waa evi? dently dictated simply and selely by spite to-j ward the great Massachusetts senator. James*! the Ffrst* said, when' he came to Londorf to I mount his throne andi'ouud oh ly blundering [ offlciais,""they have given rae a secretary who I cannot write, and a speaker .who cannot speak." Grant is understood to be in the.same r afflict?on. And the Massachusetts renegade who helped Mr.-Fjah to his .boyish rhetoric did his work so poorly thar h? betrayed the secret, and let the world see tbnr,aa!t?r six months' I incubai ion, the department "could not hatch a decent excuse. Just as that discreditable act I was floating away into Oblivion comes this usurpation, which puts the present Executive into the'eompany of Jackson s bank intrigues and Johnson's attack on Stanton. The-revela tlon it makes of the servility ol the Senate is I disheartening to all lovers of tree government. J Every maru knows that each senator*who voted L Xor Mr. Sumuer's removal did so solely because the President had let him. understand that only J on that condition could lie hope to have any influence at the departments in securing olfice tor* his friends. We tell only what is ail open r s?cret.at Washington. Politicians there, at-1 UtudinlztQg on the floors ol' Congress, use I words in a Pickwickian sense nnil varnish basel acts with comely phrases. But it is flt* the 1 people should, know the plain truth. The President has bought off his opponents byre- | lustng all winter to listen, in the matter ol ap-1 poim'ments, to tile recommendation of any [ member ol Congress who voted with Mr. Sum-J uer. The only excuse Individual Congressmen J make for changing their votes is that to be lg-1 nored at the departments,-when asking office's for their supporters,, ls death to their political hopes. If Santo Domingo is annexed, Grant secures it by threats and bribes. The poorest memory will need but little effort to recall the very embassy that bought a Keystone vote, the Judgeship which won a Wolverine, and the herring post that made another sena? tor put on the Domingo collar. Of course, when a party becomes merely n "ring'' to j divide the spoils it touches Us downfall, lt ls .sod to'think (hat the power of a'great party should haye lallen into the hands ol' such low. mercenary selfishness. Il is sad that we can oppose to. outlaw assassins at the South, band? ed together, mercilessly and at every sacrifice. ' IW at least a great object-secession-that we can oppose tp,them oply a - gang ol Swiss, .shamelessly exhibiting themselves for sale-tu the highest bidder. And so cheated of half our ".gains, betrayed in the. bouse ol' our Hera, we must rally for another such light as that which crushed Davis and balked Johnson. To prevent the choice of a Democratic Presi- I dent may be impossible. 'But our effort must | go deeper than that. W? must begin to edu? cate the .people, jato the determination that it, -encouraged oy a" rebel President, secession' ever lifts its head again at the South, the North will sWeep rebeldpm with the besom ot utter f destruction, and leave-it no ruler but the sword until every now living white man ls In Ins grave. ' WENDELL PHILUPS. J TBE BLACK .VO>OEES8MAS. Maiden Speech of the Hon. R. B. Elliott. A Washington dispatch-of Tuesday, to the STewToFk"Herald, says:' The sensation in the House to-day was the maiden speech of Mr.??llioLt, the negro mem? ber from South Carolina. Mr. Beck:, of Ken Uicky,"rrad introduceda general amnesty bill, and It was on this that Elliott made his speech. He ia a very dark negro, but evidently the ablest o*f the five black men lp the oresenf Honse. General Butler, who had the floor; yielded tb Elliott, who spoke from a seat in the immediate vicinity 'ot where Butler sits. Elliott is well educated and has a good delivery, rather inclined io be-rm passioned. He charged down in.good style upon the Kn-KIux, and then alleged that they were sustained .and countenanced by the Democratic party of the North in general ??.nd -Tammany Hall in par? ticular. Both Democrats and Republicans gathered around him as -he spoke, this being the first speech by a negro In the Honse. At the eldee of bis speech he was warmly con ?ratulated by several prominent Republicans: he bilhwas finally defeated, but whether on account of Elliott's speech ls not known. . The following were the remarks of Elliott, as. reported in J-he Herald:' . . Mr. Entert, colored, representan ve of South Carolina; said he believed he had been re? garded as*" entertaining liberal views on this questlon,-but at a_tkne itLce this, \\;hen he turn? ed his eyes to.the South and saw the loyal men of that section suffering at th? hands of the very class o? men- whqm it was now pro? posed to'relleve of their political disabilities, be must mw and here enter his solemn pro? test against thisa proposition. It waa-nothiog but paying a premium on disloyalty and .trea? son at the expenseof loyalty, rle was not sur? prised that the gentleman from.'.Ken tucky ? Mr. Beck' should introduce siich a bill. "'He appreciated the feelings Of sympathy which the gentleman entertained -fur those men ?fl the South who are' now^rbhlbined from-hold? ing office. They were the gentleman's alhee and compatriots. They are- disfranchised simply because they rushed "into rebellion against the best government under Heaven, with the advice and consent ot such-ae the gentleman lrotn Kentucky. He regretted that the gentleman'irom Illinois (Mr. Farnsworth) on Friday took .occasion"to comparte the con? dition of the men who are. dbl ranch bed. with those who are allowed to bold office in the Skfttthl He took occasion to draw-a ouin^arjf son between an old mah and his former ser? vant who held office,.and 1 ad made an appeal In favor of the lorrnef. Vat why was this so* -Because the old. mart with whom ?be gentle*-' man from Illinois sympathized tn hie heart Joined the-rebellion, while the .slave was loyal to-tu e. government-. The one despised the flag, while the other loved it. The difference was the-poor old man'would only 'curse the gov-, eminent and maltreat aird murder a loyal ? man,.while fhe^lave was bis protector. In? stead ot the removal of political disabilities doing good, r would be taken as an evidence, that yds Congress desired to hand over tbe government bo the tender mercies of the dis? loyal in "ti. who are responsible lor the-mur? ders and outrages at tbe-South. By their denun? ciation of Congress- arid abuse ot the Presi? dent and. all connected with the government, they are" the men who commit the deeds. They contribute to these deeds by "their social* infln-. euee, and willi the money furnished by Tam* mapy-'Hali to keep up the outrages in-order to Insure Democratic triumph lu tbe South. He (Mr. Elliott) was here- la behalf of the loyal mea to tell these bett. 'The number alarms shipped to the South on every steamer was in? evidente that the disloyal .oren at the 8011th are Che instruments lor carrying out designs of their Northern alli?s.
