'Democratic Popes please copy ciassltf THE CIVIL LAW SUFFICIENT. We direct the reader's patient attention to a lengthy article on our outside, which we copy from a late number of the National Intelligencer, suggested by the late arbitrary arrest, condemnation and banishment of Mr. Vallandigham. The Inteligencer, like ourself, does not endorse the oonrse of the gentleman in question : it .merely takes his case to demonstrate that Congress, at its last session, enacted statutes to precisely meet, by civil process, every offense against the Government The New York Evening Post alluding to the Intdligencer's citations, demands the handing over of Vallandigham to be tried by the proper tribunal. Bat Vallan digham is banished ; he is now certainly within the confines of the rebellion, there to remain until insurrection is put down. Bat our object is to direct attention not only to the fact of the existence of pos itive enactments intended to meet all cases similar to that of Vallandigham, but, also, to show that these statutes were purpose ly violated in order to gratify bitter, personal and cowardly vengeance. And herein lien the danger of entrusting un limited power to 'military officers. The Administration is, of course, responsible to the people for the acts of its servants, but how is it to guard against the thous ands of outrages perpetrated by upstart and brainless popinjays, who, "dressed in a little brief authority," inflict with impu• laity the grossest outrages upon the people.' The Administration cannot superintend the conduct of its Provost Marshals, any more than it can the' daily routine of the multitudinous postoffices throughout the country. This being the case there should be no discretionary power entiusted to any one,and above all to military in lividu ate,whose training,inclination and aseocia tiona almost invariably prompt them to exercise more authority than the occasion demands. Valfatidigham's case is one in point; General Burnside has said that he received no special instructions in regard to him, and that the arrest and trial was done upon his own ;responsibility. The President of the United States knew noth ing of it until the trial was over, and then be was inclined to set the prisoner fiee.— In this he was supported by three mem bers of the cabinet, but the leading mem bers of the War Committee, Wade and Chandler, stepped in and insisted upon Vallandigham being banished South. Those who have read the reports of the War Committee, blasting the reputation - of some of the ablest and purest patriots in the service, with the vilest slander, and at the same time varnishing the most gla ring incompetency of blueterirg braggets can form some estimate of the rec'clessineas and malice of the wretches who penned them. Of that committee Benjamin F. Wade stood foremoa, moulding and torturing to snit himself, such scraps of slander as John Covode could inventor obtain from lying correepondents. This man Wade, our readers will remember, was luring theseeesion of Congress be fore the lest, publicly diegra ed by Val landigham. In his place in the House of Representatives, he denounced Wade as being ''a liar, a scoundrel and a coward," and although Mr, Ben Wade had, until that time, enjoyed a reputation far being a man of valor, he never in any manner, while Congress tvas in session, or after it, attempted in any way, to call Vallandig ham to account. The cowed bully swal lowed the disgrace thus choked down his throat, relying upon courting to circum vent and be revenged upon, a courageous an imprudent and a wrong-headed man. He watched his opportunity doubtless, with the malicious fury of Sbylock waiting for the moment when he expected to cuts nearest the merchant's heart. He has had isie rove:eve - the rennet of a coward, alike destitute of manhood and magna Dimity. He has played the Hyena in his vengeance; and like a crafty mean man, ea he is, he has induced the amiable and r.astly gammoned Burnside to assume the responsibility of his meanness. These dark proceedings show the danger of entrusting to at y one discretionary power. It is impossible to imagine the countless influences, prejudices and pate 'lions at work to induce arbitrary arrests and punishmen's. Ballow, the other night, in Philadelphia,- was dragged from his bed at midnight by a military guard from Bal timore, as is new known, because of his; paper's etrictu upon the I rofligate Forney. Be was charged with treason, and yet, in a fsw days dismissed by sign ing a paper to support the gosernment.---1 The sneaking scoundrel behind the screen was to blame farahis outrage; the Presi• dent had nothing to do with it; and Ben Wade. not Mr: Lincoln, nor General Burnside, should be held accountable for this late violation of the rights of a citizen. It is true that Gen• ei-al Burnside was used, as he was when he signed an address assuming all the responsibility of the massacre at Fred ericksburg ; but he is more to be pitied than condemned. The easy going indi vides.' who in his simplicity permits pre tended friends to rob him, excites our commiseration, while it arouses indigna tion for the sharpers who perpetrate the outrage. General Burnside, therefore, In the late arrest," was only a mask upon the4sces of - a "m - sird adfoit dud unscrupu lous contriver. " Fightleg Ben Wade; however, has now his revenge -`for being branded with: _ the inelegant a i se e nF s e ap lierio him by his banished yictimi-, From this ii= be seen that dim 4 a power behind thethrone, greater than the throne itself, and that power is a radi cal clique of infuriated partizans, who, for the past nine months, have been co ercing the Administration into the execu tion of their revolutionary and tyrannical decrees. - ANOTHER SENSIBLE CRAP TER ON OPPPERHEAD S. In yesterday's Post we published a cap ita! article fiom a naniesake of New York, suggesting "how to destroy Copperheads," which is simply for the Administration to devote all its energies to the prostration of the rebellion, instead of wasting its time in interfering with political assemblages. ,The Gazette of our city yesterday, in the temper of the Evening Post' s article, gives us another admirable article upon the same subject or rather upon "the use of Cop perheads." Our neighbor's reasoning is wand, the only wonder being that it did tot discover its force until yesterday. The first paragraph of the Gazette's ar ticle argues that nothing is created in vain; the second demonstrates that the existence of "Copperheads" has caused a feeling of bounding, enthusiastic patriotism, which could not otherwise have been created: the third admires moderation against "Copperhead" publications, because their very existence tends to strengthen the friends of the Union : and the fourth par • agraph truly says that when the rebellion is put down no one will dare to avow that he ever had any sympathy with the reb els. There is nothing truer or more politic than the position advan ced by our neighbor, and yet in the face of them it beg been in eestacies over the arrest and punishment of Va! landigham. speaking or publishing what is calculated to damage the cause of the Union, must have the effect of strengthen ing and invigorating its friends. Iv othing is truer than this, and we rejoice to see the Gazette, at fact, properly impressed with that •U onviclion. We are particularly struck with the open• ing of the Gazette's article, announcing that the "vilest arid most noxious ani mals" have their uses. This is true phil osophy, and we trast to see more of it in the editorial column of oar contemporary Now that it can turn the existence of Copperheads" to a partisan account, se hope to hear of no more endorsements of arbitrary arrests of those who are useful to its Home League operations. In the meantime we quote the following linen - from Friar Laurence, going to show that that respected functionary, abont four centuries since, thought as the Gazette does now. The Friar understood some thing of medicine, and one fine morning having left, home for the country, to gath er herbs and flowers, he solilc,oised HP follows "0. intel.el L.

To His FOCnellency Abraham Lincoln, President of the United Stales: SIR: I have said that the disposition to heap harsh names upon opponents or rivals .is mere selfishness of opinion, the fundamental principle of tyranny, and I have given some illustrations of this. I.et me give a few more, for I know you are fond of illustrations, and they furnish great assistance in understanding doe. trines which the mind cannot receive as soon as stated. Who can doubt that ft was selfishness Vast roused the roar of the mob of Paris and induced the sacrifice of the Girondists for their moderation? In excited times moderation and dispassionate reason are offensive states of mind, and dangerous to their possessors. To love your enemies and bless them that hate you, are unchris tian practices. The Girondists, for their moderation, were accused by the Cortle liers and extreme Jacobins of royalism, and by the Royalists of radiehlism. La fayette was accused in the same way for the same reason. Was this not selfish nese? It is so at all times of great popu lar :excitement. Those circumstances warn men o' wisdom and moderation to "enter into their chambers and hide themselves as it were for a little moment, until the indignation bo overpast." And BO they usually do, for their princi ples can obtain no hearing then. In such a time the prophet Elieha went and hid in a cave, and thought he alone was on the Lord's side ; but God assured him that there were yet seven thousand men who had not bowed the knee to Baal. Most people know something of the manifestations of this selfish disposition by Ai:di-Masonic and Know-Nothing leaders, and total abstinence and Abolition lect.u rers. Never has the Billingsgate vocabu lary been much more freely used than by many of these men in order to give force and fluency to eloquence in the denuncia tion of large classes of worthy citizens, who were not prepared for their ex treme social measures. Why is this? Denunciation is not teaching. A mind is not convinced of a proposition by being insulted and abused for not believing. The lash of the tongue conveys to the mind only the sentiment of the coarseness of its owner, just as the lash of the whip conveys the sense of pain. Yes, but it may be said that, 1 y such denunciations, we raise an excitement against the persons denounced, and thus rally partisans, who are to be secured by repeating the slanders, though they may have no clear convictions on the subject. Well, then, let the true purpose be told, so that people may not be seduced by fraud. It is mere vassals, liege subjects, that are wanted, this is the selfish pur pose, No, but we must denounce the enemies _of truth, so ar to frighten them into silence, and frighten ignorant people from follow ing them. Well then, let this purpose be honestly avowed, and again it appears as mere selfish force, and not genuine truth. Remove its fraudulent disguise, and it can have no power over mind. besides, dis honest men can playthatgame better than honest ones, and truth has much leas chance in it than untruth. It is founded on arrogant selfishness of opinion, con tent to have a train of followers that will add to its power, without themselves de riving any benefit from the connection. No truth for them is intended. It is the tyranny of the lord over his vassals, or the chief over his clan—" My wars are your wars; follow me, or be outlawed." Am lat fault main ? Is all this mere retaliation. abuse or abuse, an eye for an eye, the scourge for the scorner? Well, let this be admitted. Most iienerally is mere selfishness still, passionate selfish . . . ipi new, mazent tyranny, the germ of per soCution for opinion, che rished rivalry budding into deadly and dividbig social fends. Well, now that we know the funda mental nature of this social sore, we know how to follow it in all the fr rms it takes from the first bud of selfish sentiment up or down to the most cruel acts, conduct or habits of tyranny and - .persecution. Let it grow, and those gentle mothers.and sisters who are now fannirig the fire of selfishness, may yet live to witness horrors like those of France and St. Domingo in the last century, and perhaps even to participate in or suffer them. Then we shall have more than enough of such men as Alva, Robespierre, Da.nton and Marat, and then a dictatorship will be the only proper form of government; for where passion and sel fishness pervades the politics of Society, it can be governed only by the highest and strongest form of selfishness, or abso lute despotism. This selfish and dividing spirithas been growing for a quarter of a century, so as to make patriotic hearts quiver with fear, and it has culminated in- the first division of our country, and will bring more divisions if It be not arrested. It is the passionate selfishness of the times, "the sword of the tongue," whetted sharp by self interest, that is the most Dative instru • meat in creating divisions among us, whieh are becoming frightful to all generous and thoughtful forecast. "Put up that sword into in its place ; for they that take the sword shall perish by the sword." The highest virtue of chriatianity is charity, generosity, love, and it was fitting that the French should formally abolish chris tianity, when they plunged into the horr3 bog of selfish and cruel revolutionary fury; far they had practically and tinconscious ly done It long before. Audit was fitting that a large portion of the clergy should join in the abrogation, far they had already started in that direction as far bank as the time of Louis XIV. Many of them however fell martyrs to the spirit of Chris tian moderation and love. The siege of Puebla is destined to rank among the most celebrated sieges in the history of the future. While the Euro pean press has sarcastically reflected on the slowness of our movements in quell ing rebellion, they have forgotten the tortoise-like pace of their armies in the Crimea and Italy, and now in Mexico.— In six months Gen. Scott marched from "era Cruz to the city of Mexico. lhe former city was surrend red to him on the of March, 1847, and on the 14th ()elate following September the city of Mexico fell into his hands, The Vrencl3, on the other hand, have frittered away nearly two years, and now they are no further than Puebla. On the 10th of No vember, 1861, their proud flag first floated over the battlements of Vera Cruz. Now the month of May, 1863, is rapidly draw• ing to a close, sod the news reaches tie of their repulse, instead of the aeoomplish• ment of their design on landing upon the sod of Mexico. So much for the skill and energy of the French army, compared with the historic deeds of our own. The foliowittg sagges•ions of the Elston Daily Advertiser are timely and impor tirj lt will be agreed by all hands that the conscription should be conducted with ab solute fairness, and it is important that the fact that it is thus conducted should be made t alpable to every body. We desire to silgt;est, therefore, to those who may have it in charge, the adoption of what we believe is the Frerch mode, namely, to make public the whole list of persons lia ble to conscription in each district, and on a given day to draw a number for each person. The conscription will then include as many as may be necessary of those who happen to draw the smallest. numbers. In this way every.body is sure that the chances are f gual. When the plan is to put na:nes not numbers) in the wheel, as was done in the case of the, drift last fall, there is room for the public to doubt whether all the names were really placed ' in the box to begin with. No analogous doubt c.AI possibly arise under the other plan.

Some of the packages were of the size of hogsheads, and all were made up of the best material. The linen was especially fine. Every package bore this inscription : "Rhine, Bavaria. For the Wounded De fenders of the united States." These packages were a free gift of the freedom loving MAD and women of Rhineland, and were brought over free by the Hamburg and American line. In the light of such exhibitions as this and others that have preceded it, there is no room at all for doubt as to the existence among the people everywhere throughout Europe of a deep and profound sympathy with the North in its grand struggle for liberty and good government, Quick Work in a Prize Court The prize steamer Aries was captured near the end o!

An Enthusiastic and Cheering Farewe [From the New York World. The capital of New York, which is usu ally as staid and self-possessed as be comes an honest city of honest Hatch ex traction and sound Democratic faith, last night went off into a genuine "sensation" of the most modern metropolitan faehicn. The occasion was the unexpected arrival of Major General-McClellan on a private visit to the Hon. J. V. L. Prnyn, in fulfil ment of an engagement long since made, and the impulse was the irrepressible en thusiasm of a patriotic population for a gallant soldier overshadowed by political jealousies and partisan hatred. The general reached Albany unheralded and unannounced about noon, and his presence in the city was not generally known till it was made public in the Albany Evening Journal. A paragraph simply stating the fact liberated all the latent heat of the popular sympathy-and good will. Some veterans of the Army of the Potomac were the first to recognize their old commander, then calling upon the governor at his office, and they fairly be sieged the executive chambers.with shouts for "Little Mac." The general was finally compelled to show himself at the window, where he shook hands with the eager and excited soldiers, who pressed up to hire with cheer and loudly uttered blessings and gladdened their hearts with a few of those simple and soldier-like words which no man is so sure to find or so frank to speak as he. From the governor's office the crowd, increasing as it werit, followed the general to the holm of Mr. Corning, which also they carried by storm, and it was not till be had gained the hospitable roof of Mr. Pruyn by a skillful detour, that the object of this amicable onslaught was left to himself. The respite, however, was brief. The city authorities and the fire companies combined for a decisive tend organised campaign, qnri depulatie es waited - upon the gerierel a few hours be• fere his intended departure with the ASSUr` ante that it world be in vein for him to attempt to leave Albany till he had seen the people face to face. and given them "room and verge" enough to express all that they felt for the soldier and the man whom "Loyal Leaguers" delight to honor with their fanatical abuse. The general was reluctantly compelled to surrender at discretion. The boat in which he was to leave at 8 o'clock was detained by her eviners ; who finally compromised by con , senting to let the general go at 10 p. Two hours before that time the whole town was in the streets ; tt e bells were ringing the firemen to their posts; the right was alive with rockers, bonfires and Roman candles : cannon thundered their we!c 'me Escorted by a jubilent crowd of and citinns,'from the house of Mr l'ryun to the City Hall, General Mc- Clellan was fairly taken out of his carriage and bottle up to the reception ball net up cm the eLielde of hired Pretorians but upon the etniweet arms of patriotic volunteers, who had shared with him the labors, the perils, and the fame of the noble army which keeps him so faithfully in its heart of hearts. Speeches were made by the Mayor, by the General hirneelf, by Mr. Prayn, and by — elovernor Seymour, who congratelated the Dernoceacy of Albany on their determination to do justice Co brqve tied layal General tinriihteous ly dismissed from his great com mand by ary incompetent adminis• trillion. From the City Hall, a brilliant torchlight procession, winding in picture, que and striking beauty down the finely eloping streets of this beautiful city, escorted the general to the steamer Hen krik Hudson,and he was received on reach ing the dock with the roar of q Lemared guns and a fresh display of fireworks, amid which ho was once more taken from hia carriage and lifted on the popular wave to the very deck of the steamer. The scene at this moment wee one to move the cold eet or most prsiodiced, Phis extemporaneces homage, the work of two or three hours, was a tribute far more eloquent than weeks of elaborate preparation could have made it to the hold which General McClellan has acquired upon the affections and the respect of his fellow countrymen. It was interesting to see how little of a political color the whole demonstration wore. Here apd there sporadic shouts were heard for "the next President," but the overwhelming burden of the poptilar voice 'ells e hearty and contingoes clamor for the " General of the Army of the Potomac I" Soldiers who fairly fought for the privile Of kissing the general's hand called out repeatedly " Go back to the army and we"ll all re enlist!" One man made his way up to his old commander, and tereieg to the crowd exclaimed ; " I've been in the field two years, and I'm going home to my wife and children, but let Little Mac' say the word and go back with him to the Potomac to-night." After the boat had once fairly moved off she was forced to round-to agqin to land a large number of enthusiastic citi sens who had entirely refused to pay any attention to the fact that they were being carried off from their homes till after the general had hidden himself in the recess of his cabin. General McClLllan has seen as much of his countrymen in a state of enthusiasm as most people, but we venture to say that this impromtu reception at Albany will linger in his memory as one of the most moving, because one of the most genuine and spontaneous, incidents of his public career. The petty malignity of many "committees" might well be forgiven and forgotton by a man who can read the ver dict of the popular heart upon his übarac ter and his services in such unbought so cents of admiration and affection as mark ed the remarkable demonstration of last, night at Albany.

LOUISVILLE, May 26.—A special to the Journal, from Alurtreesboro asi the night of the 24th, says Vallendigham has arrived, and was sent to the reb.el lines this morning. The rebel pickets at Ara refused to receive him, but finally the Oolonel commanding the pick ete'aseented to his reception, when Val lundigham thus addressed the guards, asking the attention of the Federal offi• eels: "I am a citizen of Ohio and the United States of America, and am sent within your lines against my will, and I hope you will receive me as yonrprisoner," He was then promised to be sent to the rebel authorities at Shelbyville at the ear• neat convepieurz'n. NSW YORK, May 26.—The Tribune's blurtreesboro dispatch says that Mr. Val landigham declared himself to be loyal to the United States, and that his escort were taking a prisoner to the Confederate authorities, The correspondent deems it probable that the enemy would refuse to receive him. He was given to understand by General Hoseerans, that should he arrange to re turn to our lines, the President's order to early the original sentence into effect, would be executed. The Richmond ilispateb, of the 28d, puts no faith in the speakers at the Vallaudig ham meeting in New York, and says that Governors Seymour and Hunt are no bet ter than Sumner and Chase—nay, not so good, not even as good as Burnside. The Enquirer has no sympathy with Val landigham, and says: He mightbe sentat once beyond oar lines. W6B Li I N OTO N May 26.—Gentlemen ar riving here from the Rappahannock uni formly report that nothing of import once is transpiring in the army. Many of the staff officers have gone north, and there is no indication of any immediate move ment. A gentleman reports that while a regiment of troops were being paid off re cently, a smuggler came into camp and soon found a ready sale for his whisky at three dollars a pint. The officer in com mand on discovering the illicit trade, con fiscated the prohibited. stock on hand, and drove the trader away. Many of the camps have been changed to more healthy localities. The wounded are well cared for, and nothing conducive to their comfort is withheld. The com missary department must be in good hands as there are no complaints of the charac ter or insufficiency of food. HALIFAX May 26.—The Asia sailed for Boston at HALIFAX, o'clock this morning.
