Robert Johnson, Private Secretary to the President, Washington. D. C.: Philadelphia, October 11. Is the state ment hue of the President's desiring the Attorney-General's opinion as to the consti tutionality of not recognizing the present Congress P William W. Harding, Publisher of tbe Philadelphia Inquirer. copy. Telegram from the President. To William W. Harding, publisher ot the Philadelphia Inquirer: Executive Mansion, Washington, Oc tober 11, 1806. Your despatch of this morn" og has been received. There is no truth whatever In the statement referred to. Kobkrt Johnson, Private Secretary to the President. The Sensational Washington Despatch. The startling special despatch from Wash ington published in yesterday morning's Ledger, and reported from It to prominent papers in other parts of the country (and which Tub Evening Telegraph was the first paper to authoritatively contradict), to the effect that President Johnson had pro pounded certain ques.lons to the Attorney General, covering the validity of the legis lative branch of the Government, and look ing towards an open conflict between him self and Congress, produced a deep and wide spread excitement, causing a rise in gold, unsettling stocks, carrying up breadstuff, and deranging business generally. The true cause tor this excitement is to be found in the anxious and apprehensive state ot the public mind con'equent upon the repre hensible language used by the President towards Congress on many occasions, calling it an "assumed" Congress, "a body hanging on the verge ot the Government," and other terms of similar import, as well as the threats ot just such a course of conduce as that Indi cated in tbe despatch in question, so persist ently made by the extreme clas of Demot cratic journals, and by such incendiary fana tics as Montgomery Blair, in his political stump speeches during the present campaign. Owuig to these causes, the public mind was prepared to accep . such a report as that published yesterday almost whenever und wherever made, upon any show what ever of truthful authority. The par ticular and circumstantial character of the despatch was well calculated to impose on the public, and would probably have done so had it first made its appearance in a journal of insignificant character. The people were so well prepared to believe it, that the medium of communication entered but slightly into the account. This, however, does not relieve the journal in question from a very grave lesponsibTity in the premises. Its circulation and support is very largely among the masses ot the people the poorer classes, even, upon whom the first and most Hushing effects ot a rise in prices must fall. The direct tendency of its publication was to make every necessary of life more costly aa evil which In the aggregate weighs heavily upon the laboring classes. The fluc tuations in stocks and the scrambles among speculators in gold are of less account, as pertaining to a class of society more able to sustain losses or to pay high prices. But the addition of gratuitous burdens to the load already carried by the laboring classes, is a gross wrong. The whole circumstances of tie case Beem to point to speculative in fluences as at the bottom of the canard. It only shows the recklessness with which the anxieties and apprehensions of the public are played upon by designing men for the purposes of gain. And it is a very serious reflection, and one which should in duce thoughtfulness among men of all politi cal parties, that the public mind should have been brought into such a condition as to I so readily assume the truthfulness of a report so directly pointing to execu tive usurpation and consequent civil war. It shows that we have already travelled too far In that direc tion, and are too accustomed to canvass the probabilities of so direful a catastrophe. The Nomination ol General Butler. General Benjamin . Butler has been nominated for Congress by the Republicans of the Sixth Massachusetts District. The nomination is equivalent to an election. No man In the country Is so thoroughly hated by disloyalists of every grade and stamp as the "Hero of New Orleans." "Old Ben's" method of dealing with treason and traitors earned or him the everlasting enmity of a certain class of politicians ; but the people remember with pride the time when the United States flag gave protection to loyalty in New Or- eans.ani tieason was torced to cower In terror and disgrace. General Butler Is a very able lawyer, and will bring to the consideration of the import- THE DAILY EVENING THXEGUAPn. PniLADELPHIA, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 12, 18GG.T ant questions which may come up la Con eres a mind familiar with puhllc attain, and fully Imbued with the most progressive prin ciple of the day. The Sobering I .fleet ot the Elections Last TnAT the elections of last Tuesday have had an excellent effect upon the minds of the Democracy Is already evident from the offi cious, injured-innocence kind of an air with which they deny the story set afloat yester day in the gold-pambllng canard from Wash ington, In regard to the President's questions covering the status ot Congress. Although those questions Indicated a line of policy almost identical with that repeatedly urged upon the President by the Democratic leaders and even now endorsed by a sort of semi-official organ of his in this city they now make haste to deny that such a thing was ever thought of, and have really discovered at last that Congress Ib a body of some consequence after all. Thus the New York World of to-day discusses the status of Congress la a very sound and sensible style. It says that the President, It is true, regards the exclu sion of the representatives f rom the late Kebel States as unconstitutional, but that it by no means follows from this that the constitu tional authority of Congress to perform ordi nary legislation is impaired. Congress may pass unconstitutional acts at any session, without Impairing its authority as a legisla tive body. The remedy is in an appeal to the courts. "But the exclusion of States from their representation is a violation of the Constitu tion," it adds, "which docs not admit of thh form of redress. There is no authority in any other branch of the Government to review the action of Congress on any point connected with its own organisation. The power of Congress, in this respect, is superior to all judicial and to all executive control. Against unconstitutional laws the people have complete security in the Supreme Court, which can declare them void. But against constitutional laws, passed by a Congress not constitutionally organized, there is no such remedy, inasmuch as it belongs to the Senate alone to decide, without appeal, all questions connected with the organization of the Senate, and of the House to de cide, without appeal, all questions con nected with the organization of the House. This independence of the two nouses, this superiority to all revision by other branches of the Government, in matters pertaining to their organization, is subj ect to great abuses. But for such abuses the only remedy rests in the hands of the people. If the people are deluded or misled, nothing can be done but to attempt their enlightenment, and await a turn in the popular tide. Argument and agi tation are the only resource in a ease which neither executive nor judicial action can reach. However great and provoking may be the abuse, it belongs to a class which ad mits of no remedy except through the ballot box; for we trust that nobody is so wicked or or so insane as to court revolutionary reme dies for evils not absolutely intolerable." 1 hese are very sound remarks, and we com mend them to all our Democratic contem poraries. Jamks Brooks, who used to be one of the chief lights of the Know-Nothing party, has been nominated for Congress by the Demo crats of one of the New York districts. Fer nando Wood and "Sunset" Cox have also been similarly honored. MoitG an, Democrat, is elected to Congress from the Thirteenth Congressional District of Ohio, in place of Columbus Delano, the pre sent mpmber. Delano was a "half-and-half" man, whose loss will not be severely felt. Hon. Thomas D. Elliot, an able and faithful representative, has been renominated for Congress from one of the Massachusetts districts. JUTxEVIEW BETWEEN THE EMPEROR OP AUSTRIA AND THE "EMPRESS OF MEXICO." Maximilian to Iletiuine his Position aa Archduke. A despatch duted Vienna, September 23, stales bat the Empress ot Mexico has visited the Kn peror and the Empress at Ischl, a town in Upper Austria. It is said that in those inter views tbe probitbie return of the Emperor Maxi milian was broached, and also his eventual restoration to in his rank, title, an I honors of un apunte of the Imperial and Royal Family of Austria. Yesterday Minnie Stratton, or, a the child used to call herself, Minnie Tom Thumb, the infant daughter of General and Mrs. To:.i Thumb, died at the Norfolk IIotel1 Norwich, The child was left some days since ut tbe hotel in charge of her nurse, while her parentj were on a professional visit to Yarmouth and Lowestoft. About a wek since she was taken ill, and two medical gentlemen were called lu; they failed, however, to allty her suuVrinfff, and yesterday the child died from inflammation of the brain. Mr. Tom Thumb was sent for; she arrived tn Norwich on Thursday, ami re mained in attendance on the little sufferer till her death. London Teegraph, September 23. -The late Judge P , of Connecticut, was not remarkable lor quickness of apprehension At a certain time Mr. R. W. Sherman was guing a case before him, and In the course of his remarks Mr. bnermau made a point which the Judge did not at once see. "Mr. Suermao. I would thank you to stale the ootnt so as I cm understand you." Bowing politely, Mr. Sher man replica in nis oianuest manner, "ijur Honor Is probably not aware ot tbe task you are imposing upon me." Dan Rice, the circus man, withdrew his name as a candidal? for Conirrens In Pennsylva nia, in favor of the Democratic caudldate. Dan was probably satisfied that his "vaultim" atubl tion would be better rewarded inside the circus ring.

Professor Fergu son, of the National Observatory in this city, ' making arrangements to take scientific obser vations on the expected meteoric display in November next. Tbe subject of me'.eors and sbootine stars baa engaged the attention of emi nent asttonomon within the last century to a greater extent than ever before; among them 1'rofeflRor Olmsted, Twining, und Newton have written valuable papers in connection with it. The appearance ot Bhootlng stirs is quite common, but in the months of August and No vember of each year they are seen In greater numbers, generally about the 10th of August and the 12th of November. The threat meteoric shower of 1799 oeems to have drawn the atten tion ot astronomers more particularly to this subject, and irom that lime to the recurrence of tbe meteoric showers in 1H33, and up to tun pre-obt day. tbt'y have been enacavorlnir to reter tnc different pha-es and characteristics ot ibe phenomenon to known laws, and to e.tao lib the exact anniversary ot its appearance. Thus lar the more brilliant of these m-tuorlc showers have occurred at intervals of thirty three year ; tbat of 1833 was especially distin guished by the Immente number ot moving meteors to be seen at once, and tor the remarxa ble size and splendor of many of them. Among tbe myriads of blazing meteor? visible on that occasion, one was seen at several places on tbis continent. It was recognized by several ob servers by its extraordinary size and brilliancy, as well as by the length of time its train re mained visible, which whs about ten minutes. The luminous train seemed to follow whs meteor in a pcrppiitme course, and finally disappeared in a vast nebulous cloud, many times larger than the moon, and which continued to move on v-ard with a velocity greater than the clouds. The meteoric displays of 179.) and 1833 were characterized by the 1 all of meteorites, which, ruthing towards 1 he surface of the earth witn a loud liolse, penetrated benetlb, it several feet. Tbe periodicity ot these starry showers is not so iienniteiy ascertained with reeird to the na? as to the year. The.v have occurred toagreuter or less degree in the months of August and November, tiom 1833 to 1839; but the most re markable of them have appeared on the 12th of November, or between thaldateand the 14th. The next appearance of the meteoric pne nomenon, therefore, Is expected on or about the 12th of next month. The observations of astronomers bave demonstrated tuat tnc shoot ing stars are more numerous between midnight and sunrise, and tbe maiority of them agree in fixing the radiant point that point in which the lines described by tiie meteors in their fliaht centre in the constellation Leo, limiting the area of radiation 'o the immediate vicinity ot licgulus in the neck: of the lion. Other assign the radiant point to the constellation Orion. The theory inot generally accepted in account inir tor the regular recurrence ot meteoric showers, is tbat an unusual aggregation ot th0se asteroids exists in the plane which is reached by the earth at ihnt point of Us orbit, and through which the earth is several hours in parsing, al though observations have not been sutliuientlv numerous to establish the exact oeriod of the earth's arrival at tbis part of us orbit During the lliel.it of meteors in November, 1833. much appreheusion was manifetted from the tear that one or more of tnese asteroids would come Into collision with the earth: but hitherto in disas trous consequences have ensued from Ihiserand celestial display, and although there Is some reason to believe that au event of th's kind is possible, scieutitic men unite in the opinion that puch a calamity is not within ttc bounds of probability. TEATS OF HORSEMANSHIP. A correspondent of the London Teleqranh re cords iouie remarkable teats ol horsemanship: 'The late Captain Home, of the Madras Horse Artillery, lode two hundred miles in less than ten hours, along the road Detween Madras and hangaiore, upon Arab norsoo. I am sure that at the present day many a yotinz officer could be tound to repeat the performance. Indeed, lutlo is known of what can be and is done lu India. "I bad but a very casual acquaintance with Captain Home, irom meeting him on some of our Ken pal race-courses, but 1 bave always ad- mireo ana o icn inougnt unout his great courage and enduruuee. I fully believe you will lind upon inquiry that his death resulted many jears aao 110m 05 sentery, contracted oy winning a i'OiiO bet that he would ride a horse named 'Jumping Jemmy' one hundred miles a day lor eight successive dajs. lie started on, I think, the 5th ot July, after the racing season would have set in, and when the heat bctwean showers would be excessive. The borse was none tbe worse lor his performance, but Cap tain Home's death irom tbe exposure be en countered was iho unfortunate result, and was greatly deplored. "tjonie uuie ucmi'tu iatv unu ihjj, toe late Mr. liacon, of Ibe Bombay Civil Service, rode one camel Irom Bombay to Allygbur (perhaps eight hundred miles) in eiht days. The camel was u nine mooa-iooKing animal, almost black. "About 1BJU tbe present Lord Exnioufi, then the Hon.
