COMl'llED SVKRY DAT FOR SVKMNO TELEGRAPH
The Ncntiallty I bws.
From the Tim.
In its frcueral reasonine, perhaps the report
of the House Committee on Foreipn A.r.iira
upon the neutrality laws correctly exprcisej the
prevailing sense of justice. There is a pioper
aversion to changes of law made at the inttauce
and to serve the convenience ot foreipn powers;
and the tact that certain leatures of existing
legislation originated thus is sufficient to insuro
lheir coudemuation. The leeanir 1 strength
ened when it is remembered that the friendly
action of the American Government has not
beea reciprocated. For surely legislation by
the United States by which other couutries pro
lited should have induced corresponding W'ginla
tlon on their part, that there miirht be among
nations something like oneness ol principle aud
policy in their lespective enactments on the
eubiect of neutrality.
Now the report presented by (ieneral Bunks
establishes the first ot these points, it show;
that th provisions of the law in respect of
neutrality, which were deemed adequate and
Justin the early days of the republic, were-at
diilerent times altered in the direction ot greater
stringency oa the sui;netion or solicitation of
toreign Governments, that of Great Britain
belnn among them. It stows that the laws now
in lorce in this country exceed in coniprchen
mvenesx and stringency those iu operation
elsewhere. And the argument is fairly and
Btronely put, that the comity of nations de
mands something like mutuality ot duty upon a
question In whicu they have a common lntcr'-st.
1'uc obligation to do unto Ihis country us tnia
country nas done unto otliers has, however,
been pcroihiontly disregarded; and at this mo
ment American citizens are tubicet to restric
tions aud penalties tar in excess of those im
posed by the Governments of Europe. To these
inequalities in laws allecting international
Interests there is a natural, if not a very intelli
gent repugnance; and hence the proposition to
regulate tue restrictions upon American citizens
in matters allecting British interests, by the
restrictions which Great Britain has placed
upon her subjects in matters infecting American
interest?, may be expected to commend itselt to
popular lavor.
But though the law is unsatisfactory and the
amendment ol it necessary, the wisdom ol pre
cipitancy in regard to it is not very clear. It
was wrong in former Congresses t.i comply with
the requests ot Great Britain, or Spain, or Por
tugal, seeing that none of them has returned the
compliment.
There would be less reason for caution if this
cflort to mend the neutrality laws were not evi
dently connected, in a near or remote degree,
with movement which the friends of order
cannot cou template with inditt'trenee. The pre
vention of raids upon Canada led to the intro
duction of the subject into Congress, and it is
well understood that the chnuge proposed is
deemed to be favorable to the plans and pur
poses of the Fenian organization. "The modi
fication," says the World correspondent, "will
prove to be largely in the FenUn interest,
as wae evinced by the presence of President
Roberts and other prominent Fenians on the
floor during tne dwciieslon ot the bill."
It is not alleged by the advocate! ol the
measure that the President exceeded his
authority in the steps recently taken on
the Northern lronticr; and the absence of
complaint upon this bead is equivalent to an
acknowledgment ot the strict legality ot his
course. The appaieut desire is to prevent
further Executive interference, should the occa
sion for it be renewed; tor though General
Banks' bill comes up to the standard ot Wash
ington, and It is in every respect equal to the
restraint which Great Brit&in deems sultioient
for her subjects, it f fleets a marked relaxation
in the law now in force here. The inquiry
arises, therefore Is it more dignified, more
proper, or more expedient to modify the
neutrality laws lor the accommodation of the
Fenians than lor the accommodation ot foreign
Governments?
The present position of the Government in
relation to neutrality is confessedly strong. It
has extorted cratelul testimony from Iho organs
of British opinion, and has commended itself to
the moral ownse of the American people, it
ocenmes a vantage-ground in the great arena of
nations, and may with propriety call upon other
Governments to revise their legislation, and
cuter into reciprocal obhuatfons in mtei na
tional concerns, its promptitude and vigor
ogaiust i email loravs will justify it in present
ing to England a pretty little account of her
indebtedness on account of lailure to preserve
aiueouitable neutrality during the Kebellion,
And its own laws will be a standard to which
the neutrality laws ot other countries may be
icauired to advance.
It, alter all, the leading powers of Europe
retuee to recognize tue obligation ot reciprocity
if Britain will neither atone for injuries and
losses produced bv her lax ideas ol neutrality,
nor restrain her people alter the lashionsctbv
the United States the obligation on the side of
this country will cease, and Congress may
loosen its bonds to the utmost limit. But at
least let the change be brought round deco
rously. Let not the spectacle be presented of
legislation in matter ot the highest import
ance pushed to maturity at lightning speed
-without thoutrht, without care, and without
regard to the possibilities ot the immediate
future.
Jefferson Davis Again.
From, the Tribune.
The report which has been given to Congress
en tbe investigation of the charges of assassina
tion against the responsible heal of the Rebel
lion, iurnishes good reason for the time which
has been employed in its preparation. The Com
mittee charged by Congress with the matter
make it plain at the outset that the testimony
before them is not sufficient to convict Jefferson
Davis in a tiourt ot justice. Eut the whole story
kas not yet been told, while that which appears
is more than enough ,to confirm tbe profouud
suspicion under which Davis was charged by
President Johnson, and his case placed in the
hands of an investigation committee, witnesses
of hi complicity in the murder, meanwhile
waiting to conduct them to the proof. The
champions of the ailing prisoner in Fortress
Monroe must establish tbat all the witnesses are
aenurers. or fail in their case. If they fail.
there can be no doubt, moral or legal, that Davis
himself was immediately responsible for the in
human treatment of tbe Un.on prisoners of war,
and, by inference, was none too religious a char
acter to direct the desperate work which re
mained. Pending any attempt at the rebuttal
ot the charges, tne testimony, as it appears, both
with reBnect to the usage ot tbe prisoners of
'war. and the murder of a noble man, is formida
ble even now. It is stranger, however, as it
affects the former.
The Committee's report traces the assassina
tion from its general antecedents, of which the
slow murder of the prisoners at Andersonville
is the most Important. The Committee express
no doubt that Davis had lull understanding of
tbe acts of hu subordinates at Libbv, Salisbury,
and ehewhere. grounding their iuith on the
added proof of the Rebel archites to the aecu-
1 mulated testimony already in the Government's
hands. The reports ot Rebel committees, ex
tracts from the Rebel papers, letters of Rebel
- ofllcials, and an appealing letter to Davis from a
'.' Southern lady are given to show that the trat
', meat of our prisoners was notorious, and that
- in contempt of their miser j each complaint on
their behalf was tossed back from the hands of
' the Rebel President, and between his careless
and criminal subordinates, till it fell to the
ground, The chapter on the evmts immediately

lion are concurring eircunwauces teniiuig to
a dismal conclusion, ine rnew iurs juto m
plausibly supposed to have advertised tor the
nrch-Kebel direction for the payment of $20,000
secret service money to Jacob Thompson. Tnere
is more of this testimony which we cannot now
review. The general impression of tne report
will lortilv the opinion wbica has tnrdly at any
time failed to manifest itself against tbe author
of the Andersonviilo miseries. The friends ol
the State prisoner profess to hiwe omntliing to
say in 1m detente. The Committee atlirtn, on
their part, tnat ine worn 01 irivesiiKauon is iiet
dene. . . .
The Committee have properly rejected tne
testimony of the witnesses who avowed their
own falsehood, with what motive it does not
appear. Tta charge of Davis' complicity still
exists, if we have judged aright tbetenor of the
report. But more important, more welcome
than anything else in tbe result of this investi
gation, is tne promise t oat Jeuerson uavis win
be broucut to trial, ana, n guilty, convict' ana
punished. Nothing bars the way.
The Uient Convention at Philadelphia
Progiess ot the Counter Kevolution.
From the IereUd.
In the papers, during the hot days in the city
and at all tbe watering places, the principal
topic of discussion Is the Philadelphia National
Union Convention. Wherever two or three
persons are gathered together this subject is
sure to be ventilated. As a standard matter
of conversation it has quite superseded the
weather. Our exchanges are full of it. Calls
lor State conventions to cleet dcleeates to it
ar being issuer. Kverybody is going to attend
it. An immense wiewam for it is in course of
erection. The tailroads will run extra trains to
accommodate the crowd. The old proverb tells
us that it is better to be out of the world than
out of the fashion, and decidedly it will be the
fashion to go to the Convention. No politician
of any importance can afford to stay away,
unless he lie a radical doomed to the wrath to
come. In that case he may reserve himself for
Jack Hamilton's negro-worshipping convention
in September.
But wulle everybody is preparing to go to the
Nanonal Union caiherinir, it is singular ttau
each ot the cliques and factions wants to keep
all tne rest out. need and Kamund promise
to be there; but they turn up their noes at the
Wood Brothcrc, and at Marble and Belmont, the
shent-per-shent twins, and at Vallandigbam and
his tail, and insist that all these notorious
people must be excluded. We should like to
know why. The terms of the call lor the Con
vention do not exclude them, and nothing else
cau. w nat is tnere noout tne wooa urotners,
for instance, that un tits them to sit in the big
wigwam with Weed and Raymond? We presume
thut the latter gentlemen will not insist too
strongly upon a comparison of personal re
cords or of general jobs. Is it, then, that the
w coils, and vaiinndinam, and Belmont and
Marble sympathized witb the Kebeis during tlie
war and are a utile tainted that wav still?
Mr. Belmont will not admit this sott impeach
ment, and Mr. Marble indignantly denies it and
calls lor pistols i.nd coffee, as if he had purchased
some of the warlike spirit of the Chevalier Webb
when he bought in the old duellist's paper. But
even in the notorious case9 of tho Woods and
Vallandigbam, how can Weed and Raymond re
fuse to associate with tnese worthies, wnen they
are willing to act with the repentant Rebels of
the south? A Copperhead may be as bad a, or
even worse than, a traitor; that is a mere matter
of opinion. But certainly when a Copperhead
becomes converted to the Union cause he is just
as good ss a converted Rebel, aud those who
are aHxious to meet with reformed Rebels, can
not, with any sort of grace or consistency, refuse
to iidinr. relormcd Copperheads to the coalition.
No political church can undertake to shut out a
single class of sinners who really and honestly
desire to avail themselves of the benefits of
saving grace.
Tbe continunl discussion about the Philadel
phia Convention has drifted away from first
principles. To keep themselves utraitrht, the
parties concerned ought to publish the original
can every otner uay. xnat can recognizes ine
treat issue between the President and Con-
cress, and invites all who support the President
and his policy oi reunion to taue part in tne
Convention. It says nothing about the Woods,
or Vallaudichaui, or Belmont, or Marble, or any
other obnoxious individual, it lays down a
broad, solid platlorm, upon which all may
stand without crowding each other of!'. The
war is over now: old things have passed away;
everv tiling is to begin de novttau. It makes no
difference w hat a man's position was as to other
issues, now dead and buried; the only vital
question is as to bis position in regard to this
grpat new issue between the President and
Concress. We know the Woods thoroughly; we
have no more confidence in them at present than
we had while they were selling themselves to
both sides during the war; but if they state that
they are ready to sustain the President's policy
and the Union, they cannot be turned out. ol
the Philadelphia Convention under the terms of
its call.
Messrs. Weed and Raymond, who are clearly
not without sin, should not throw the first stone
In this rude and unui'titiable manner. Some
body may retaliate belore long by opposing ithe
admission of lobbyists. It is much better to
take the only true ground and advocate the ad
mission ol all comers, line clique will then
neutralize another, and we shall get a moral
force from the combined influence of the Con
vention that will work most powerfully in the
tall elections, these squabbles oetoreh ad over
Mr. Ben Wood's dirty linen or Mr. Weed's dirty
linen can amount to nothing. All the linen will
be made pure and spotless Dy the convention
Those whose sins were as scarlet will come forth
white as snow. The issues between the Presi
dent and Congress will absorb all other issues.
and every politician will be judged, not by what
be has done, but bv what he is doing, i.et us
have a general political amnesty, and the people
will accomplish all the rest.
