P r W YORK PRESS. OPINIONS OF TIIE LEADING ALS UrON CURRENT TOPICS. riXKU TBRT DAY WOK EVRN1SO TELEGRAPH. The Uiilllotine. from tiit 'iYibune. When a new Administration, of a new politl ril qnint, come in, the old postmasters through out the land expect to be executed, and, after four or eieht years of place, can philosophically bare their necks for the blow. The anguish of tbe stroke is mitigated by the fact that it comes from an avowed enemy; and, if a man la to be slaughtered, it is a consolation that he is not slaughtered in the hoiinc of his friends, by the "hands of ancient associates. Of the 2200 post masters brought to block by the President since the 1st of July last, it is safe to say that a ma jority voted for Mr. Johnson a mistake, we submit, carrying its own punishment, and em tailing a remorse which should not be aggra vated by pecuniary los?es. But the Presidential uppttltc for the blood of postmasters is not yet . aliated. It is announced in the newspapers i hat the President, chastened in his serene mind ty the Into elections, will "make no more im portant removals." Tbrre would seem to be in this statement an intimation thut tin- unimportant removals are to goon; and at this moment hundreds of little towns and villages are lull of intestine feuds; neighbors swearinir against neighbors, and fami lies waging verbal warfare against families; while aspirants lor the pot ollice are bothering everj body with petitions lor appointment, mid frightened incumbents are making desperate effoits to send on counter memorials. There is talk in the shops and in the streets; there is a schism, entirely untheological, in the church; women loin in the ullruv; and even children are shaken by tender animosities; half the commu nity, perhaps, sympathizes with the quick and hall' with the defunct official : and the bad blood thus engendered may continue to boil In the veins of several generations. In the city we are accustomed to these things, and, in the huboub, they may soon be torcotten: but in the rural dis .tricts they are ranked among the leading events ot the century, and color all the future tradi tions of the parish. We wish that the President, being a mighty hunter, could have been persuaded to spiire this email eame, partly lor his own sake, partly tor the sake ot worthy ollice-hulders, and partly lor the sake of the mail service itself. In poli tical strength and party resources, his Excel lency will gain noihine by thoe forcibly feeble demonstrations, and for every friend he makes by a decollation, will insure lroni two to twenty enemies. The men who, under the present mobt peculiar circumstances, can so lower themselves as to seek his patronage at their neighbor's expense, cannot, in a political way, be of the least possible service to him or to his faction. The gentleman who is removed will have tbe public sympathy; the gentleman who is put in must be toirratud, but be will not be beloved. The sufferer will be regarded in the light of an Injured individual, and, to a certain extent, justly. Expecting to keep his place for a certain number of years at least, he has made his arrangements accord ingly; has fitted up an office; has acquired skill in the routine of the business; and, having com fortably settled himself to his own satisfaction and that of his townsmen, his pipe is suddenly put out bv some new convert to Johnsonisra who has been watching his opportunity, and who has long determined to have the ollice or die in the attempt to Bectire it. He succeeds: he walks In over the prostrate form ot his pre decessor; and, unless he can hire an instructor in the business, he deranaes the correspondence of the neinhborhood by a hundred mistakes, and exposes the most tender secrets by the eccentri cities of his delivery. Unless the President really wishes to punish the people lor their blindness to the epleudor, originality, and prudence of his policy, lie will let the postmasters alone. He will not, at least, allow himself to be made the tool of suburban speculators, and the arbitrator oi'villatre squab bles. When he brings the nose of sonie behe moth of oflice to the sacrificial ring, we have not a word to say, at least him; but such piti less energy against the minor objects of his wrath is, to say the least of it, undigniQed, and a little laughable. Southern Indifference to Restoration A Serloua Mistake. Vom the Times. One of the worst signs discernible at the houth is the profession of indifference to the question of restoration. The doctrine preached" is that since the Southern States are now denied admission to Congress, they are content to remain excluded for an indefinite period. They have done what they consider enough to entitle them to Congressional recognition, and will do no more, be the consequences of their refusal what they may. Take them at their word, and they will not yield another point. They go further than this. Congress, they insist, must give up the test oath before the South will care to obtain admission. Eegarding journals like the Richmond Examiner as correct exponents of the feelings and opinions prevalent among the Southern people, it is plain that they require not only admission free from all new conditions, but admission unembarrassed with tt-oata disabilities. "Unless we may send men ot our own choice" their argument runs "whose right to seats shall pass unchallenged, we will remain out of the Union; we will neither make further concessions, nor submit to oaths enacted to exclude the very men we prefer." These exhibitions of temper are to be re gretted. To the extreme radicals they are as sweet morsels, to be rolled uuder the tongue for they afford prima facie evidence that the South is still Rebel at heart, and should, there lore, bo subjected to more rigorous discipliue ihan has yet been enforced. To more moderate Republicans they are a source of serious embar rassment, tor it is idle to plead lor concessions and conciliation when they on whose behalf the plea Is urged doggedly reiuo to concede aught in return. Of whit avail is it to ask for forbearance when they tor whose 6oke the re quest is presented assume the tone of " masters of the situation," and claim the right of saying on what terms they shall be reinvested with the privileges of citkensnip ? If iheir object be to invite sterner and more sweepiug measures, a i a pretext tor laising the cry of oppression, and for nurturing the feelmes and purposes of re bellion, their course would be perfectly intelli gible. On any other hypothesis it is unintelli gible. It happens, however, that the Journals which are loudest in the utterance ot ihe declarations we have adverted to, are earnest in their advo cacy ot attention to material interests. They are confessedly wretchedly poor-their farms Hn! P.lantUtl0n8 are in a ereat measure dsolute their labor system is disorganized, and in its present shape experimental." Material wants press heavily upon them. They require capital, which must be obtained front without close attention to the labor available at their doors and the introduction or labor from abroad the patieut, plodding devotion to home pursuits which alone can elevate the .South to the standard of prosperity which obtains at the Norm. For these reasons the politicians affect satisfaction with the aspect of public affairs. They declare that they find more than consola tion for exclusion from the Union in the in. reaed oppoitunlties which they will have for developing their material resources, and re . trieviug the disasters occasioned by the war. What we lose in political etandiug," they assert. will be as nothing compared to what we shall fitin from attention to oar own concerns." TL e iirguiDtut of 'best mjctj, ;! it bfcve ucy moi.r.ijp, TIIE DAILY EVENING TELEGILXrn.rilllADELPlIlA, WEDNESDAY, means that the material profit to accrue to the Kotitb from exclusion Irom the Union will reconcile them to exclusion, though It lat for j ears. Folly could hardly go furfhar. For how can the South by any possibility thrivs, Industri ally or commercially, while snbj-ct to the thousand uncertainties which now attach to its political condition r Cnpital Is needed ; but the introduction ol capital, whether in the form of loan or investment, presuppose-) confidence in tho future, and there can be no confidence until the ttatun of the South is defined, and the con tingencies which now hang over property. owners are removed. Tho most dare-devil of speculators shrink liom enterprises in a region where confiscation and military rule remain among the possibilities of ttie morrow. Immi gration is needed; but emigrants always have shunned, and always will shun, regions where the peaceful proecutlon of industry i not well assured. The progress of the British Provinces which skirt our Northern frontier has been retarded by the mere possibility ot complications with this country; the great majority even ol the emi grants who land there preferring tho flxd future of the United States. It is and will be so, as between the Southern States out of the Union and the great West in the Union. The hundreds of thousands who flee from the poverty and oppre.-sion ot the Old World will pass by the magnificent resources ot the South, so long as they continue subject to the chances 01 civil war, and will seek new homes iu Kausas, Min nesota, or States and Temtories similarly situ ated. There can, indeed, De no emigration to the Bo nth Irom foreign countucs until the exodus of Southern citizens ceases. And the South will find Itself unable to Keep the popu lation already within its borders until the political difficulties which enshroud it be brought to an end. As ft mere matter of material interest, then, the policy of tho South is suicidal. Wuelher it be indifferent or not to its constitutional rela tions to the Uiiion, it makes no concealment of the anxiety with which it ponders its financial and indusirial condition. That is a problem whote solution the Southern people await with a degree ol apprehension which manifests itself continually. Its gravity, however, derives the gieater part of its force from their own refusal to acknowledge the peculiarities of the political position which they vainly suppose to be under their control. II they would emerge irom their difficulties, tney should begin by doing what Is possible in the direction of a restored Union. And the first step required from them is a candid, dispassionate consideration ot propo sitions submitted by the North. This profes sion of indifference either to the overtures of Congress, or the question of representation in Congress, is a prave mistake, the consequences of which will fall most heavily on themselves. Congress and the South A Short Plan for Decisive Settlement. from the Herald. Desperate diseases call for desperate remedies, and the case of the unrestored South is despe rate. The late Northern elections, from the Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean, with an emphasis unparalleled in our political history, have spoken the voice of the North in favor of the conditions of the pending Constitutional amend ment. These are the best terms to the South which the States holding and controlling the Government have to offer. On the other hand, in response to these Northern elections, the unreconstructed Southern States, through Iheir Governors andLcgUlatures, reject the conditions of the amendment as so deeply humiliating and degrading to Southern honor, and so out rageously in violation of Southern rights that they can be treated only with derision, defiance, and contempt. This condition of things is styled by a Cop perhead journal "a dead-lock;" and It may turn out to be so if Congress shall determine to recognize the excluded States, as they stand ns rightfully restored to the control of their local affairs. Rut Congress is not committed to this theory, and the reconstructive work done by the President goes for nothing till approved by Congress. The two bouses have not vet recognized the en d of the Rebellion, and iu the prevailing spirit, opinions, acts, and declara tions oi tne state authorities and leading politi cians, from Virginia to Texas there is abundant evidence that over all that region the Rebellion, though disarmed, still exists, and that the oath ol Hannibal of "eternal hatred to the Romans" is the oath of the ruling classes ot the South against the "detested Yankees." The same men who preached the Constitution in their conspiracy to destroy the Government, accept me jui ciuiim ui i-reeiucni. iiuuuhuu ouiy u return to uie oia claptrap oi ineir constitutional lights, and are impudently ureiug the President tn trv a coup d'etat tax their deliverance from what thev call an unconstitutional Congress. Have we not had enough ot this t Is not the fact established that confidence and indulgences are tnrown away upon tne lntractaoie rebellious elements of the excluded States? Is it not aD- parent that it leit to their own discretion in the matter ot this amendment, they will only use it to inflame their people to riots, insurrections, and anarchy? What, then, is the remedy de manded ? In view of the great ends ot law and order, the restoration of the Uuion, 6olid and strong, security and confidence, justice and generosity, we tbinic tne time is at hand when Congress should interpose its authority, beein- ning ue novo m a pian oi reconstruction, which will be at once comprehensive, "short, sharp, and decisive." We want no delenda est Carthago no destruction of Carthage but we want no more tinkering or temporising with this Southern difficulty. Under the constitutional war powers of Congress, by which the armed forces ot the Rebellion were put down and dis persed, its disarmed forces may be compelled to accept ana rainy tne terms ot a tair, just, and generous ultimatum of restoration. We would accordingly submit to the Congress which is to reassemble in Washington on the first Monday in December a new Constitutional amendment, or a modification ot that belore thefctates. so as to embrace, not the cheating proposition of impartial biill'mite. but universal sutlrape and a universal amnety as the basis of Southern restoration. The .universal sutlruge we mean is tne admission o tne ballot box of all males of all races and colors of twenty-one years of age, except criminals and lunatics and "Indians not taxed;" and the amnesty we mean is ono which will reach from the Rebel bush whacker to Jeff. Davis and his Cabinet, begin ning with the release ot Davis. We would fur ther propose tho enforcement of this settlement upon the rebellious South, as President Johusou enforced the amendment abolishing slavery. To this end en act of Conpress requiring the Presi dent to place an army of one hundred thou sand or a hundred aud filty thousand ineU under General Giant, for the purpose of hurry ingKp the good work in the excluded States, would be a tood thing. Something of this Bort is required to convince those States and their people that an unsuccessful Rebellion briii"s its pains and penalties, and that it is the victor and not the vanquished that dictates tn-. treaty of pence. Pjesident Johnson's efforts at restoration have turned out to be "love's labor lost." Let the rightful authority of Connies, then, be in terposed, and iu a maimer which will admit of no more tritiintr and no more delay. Lei this new plan bo placed in the hsnds of General Grant f.r its enforcement, and the thin v will soon be done. Peace, restoration, and harmony will speedily follow; lor while the universal am nesty will throw the veil over the otlensea aud otleudersot the Rebellion, universal biill'rai'e, blacks and all, will hold the recovered States firmly in the Union aud with the cause oi the Union. .Moreover, by this plan, there will lie the additional positive advantage to the South of a gau of some twenty odd member of Con gress over the plan of negro exclusion from the sullrsge The authority and the power are in the bunds cf congress, and this is onr plan, as nutters now i;Und, tor a. bhort, comprehensive emrpiet", i,jt -.yeeily set'.teuJC ut. ' Tribulation of the Republican. From tht World. The author of the 'Iliad," in describing the mourning of tht captive maidens over the corpse of ratroclus, says that, while seeming to bewail the dead hero, they were really lamenting their own captivity. Tho officious anxiety displayed by the Republicans, since the elections, that the. South should, for Its owu advantage, come to a speedy settlement, is of a similar character. Their real anxiety is not for the prompt relief of ihe South, but for tho prompt relief of the Republican party. The Republicans see, as clearly as we do, that the present dead-lock cannot continue without in-, finite damage to them. The restoration ot the Union is blocked by their act, and they cannot escape the responsibility. They can led the elections by deluding the people; by making them think that the South would immediately succumb if Congress was sustained by the Northern people, and that that was the speediest way to secure the great object for which so much blood has been spilt. The people of the North want to see this difficulty ended. It the Union is not restored they will glow impatient and resile. They will ask why they were so industriously and deceptively told that a Republican triumph in the election was the shortest way out of the embroilment. The party that keeps the Union dismembered will grow more and more odious in proportion as the lapse ot time attests their determination to de feat in peace the object lor which we went to war. The Republican leaders, foreseeing that they must lace this odium, are painfully looking about them for some modo of exliicatiou. The eager and delighted avidity with which they caught at a recent article in the Chicago limes recommending a substitute for the amendment, betokens their restless anxiety to get out of an uncomlortnble position. The amendment, which it took all the combined wisdom of Con gress eight months to batch, and which was cried up In every State where an election has been held as the pcrlection of justice, is already as good as dead. It has fallen to the ground, like untimely fruit, rotten before it is ripe. The air Is full of rumors which lead us to doubt whether it will be ratified even by the Northern States. It is telegraphed from Washington that influential Southern statesmen (nobody gives lbcir names) favor "impartial suffrage" (i. e. negro suffrage) as a mode of settlement. When Chief Justice Chase calls on the President to confer with hnn about needed changes in the judiciary laws which ought to be recommended in the Annual Message, the teleeraph is again busy informing all the Republican newspapers that a conference is eoing on between those high functionaries respecting the state of the country, which is likely to result in a new policy on which Congress and the President can agree, and which will probably bo accepted by the South. Tbe negro-suffrage article in the Chicago limes, the apocryphal opinions attnbuted by the Washington quidnuncs to leading Southern statesmen, and tne alleged consultations be tween the Chief Justice and the President, ena bled the Republican prints, during the last week, to nertorm a new comedy or Much Ado About Nothing. Thousrh trifles ltcrht as air in themselves, those rumors and the reception given them are noteworthy indications of the uneasy, dissatisfied, expectant state ot public feeling. They know that the late elections, instead of settling the public mind of the North, have completely unsettled it. While the elec tions were pending, it was represented that the question to be decided by them was whether tho Constitutional amendment was to become the fixed policy of the country. The friends of the amendment cariied the elections, and now they seem anxious for a colorable pa-text tor pitching it overboard. The true interpretation of this strange vacillation is that the Republi can leaders know that the amendment was a dishouest sham, which, having served its tempo rary purpose, they desire to bury out of sieht. They never supposed it wouid be adopted, and as soon as Congress meets they will immediately try to occupy public attention with some new scneuie, with a view to have it forgotten. TLey never meant it, as a plan of settlement, but only as a piece of electioneering claptrap. If the Northern Legislatures should ratify tho amendment. It will be merely for form's sake to preserve party consistency. No intelligent Re publican, any more than any intelligent Demo crat, supposes it will ever be a part of the Con stitution. Congress will have been in session a month before most of the Legislatures meet; ana belore they can act on it, it is probable that tome substitute will be broached which will supersede it, and set it aside. We shall feel no surprise even it Massachusetts shall fail to ratify it, The plea will be, that Massachusetts can consent to nothing short of negro Buti'raire. If two or three radical States lead off in rejecting it on this ground, it may turn out. before winter ends, that instead ol three-fourths of the States are against it. We expect to see the Republican leaders scouting it as a mode of settlement be fore Congress nas been two weeks in session. It is certain, from recent indications, that the Re publicans are thoroughly dissatisfied with their position, and are seeking pretexts to escape from it. TTSTATK OF JOSEPH J.
