THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH. PHILADELPHIA, MONDAY, DECEMBER 24, 1860. THE KEW YOItK PRESS. EDITORIAL OPINIONS OF THE LEADING JOURNALS UPON CURRENT TOPICS. OOMFILKD ITUI PAT OR SVIMKQ TELEGRAM General Sheridan's) Explanation. OYom th Trilmn. Among th Mfxkian documents transmitted by theriesident to (be House, In answer to their request, U tbe report or General hhertdau to the War Department, (tiring his reasons tor the arrest Of Senor Orteva, ruo oiaima to be the oonstitntlona President ol Mcxioo br virtue of the fundamental law of that country and the tree rote of its people, benor Ortega's protect against the arrest is based, first, upon the wrong violently done to him per sonally, in disregard of individual trnarantees. Secondly and Uiis is the point that chiefly con cerns the American people, upon grounds ol inter national law he says: "I protest, in the name of the Mexican republic, whose powers I exercise a President, against this said act, because It Imports n Indirect in toil, rence by the armed torcos of the Lalted States in tbe solution ol looai Moxloan ques tions. 1 axatn proiest, as 1'rcmdont 01 Mexico, axainst all acts wlilcu directly or indirectly load by loroible means to impose upon tae Mexican peopio, in the character ot government, the laotious rejre Vented by iir. Benito Juares," etc etc. Uenoral bheridan's attempted justldeatlon of the arrest rests upon thosearounus: 1. l'hatthe acknow ledged bead o. Uie bib nl Government during the recent events in Mpxico was Fresidout Juares. and that Orient bad fled the country. 3. 1 bat Ortega, while n a foreiau oountry, did as much as lie could to counteract thorn (the events) by the publication of real or priteude.4 rights av constitutional Pre sident of Mexico. 8. That this did not satiiy Ortega, but be renoivedon an appeal to arms to entoro his Claims, and combinations were formed at New Xork and Biownsviilo 4 That Ueueral Orteia was .boat to cross the line of our frontier, end was arrested on the same prinoiple that the Fenians were arretted in attempting to violate our law by the Invasion of Canada. 6. That the Amoncan people bave fuffered in trade from the disturbed condition of affair on the Klo Grande, first by Im perialism and then by foreign merchants in Mats moras, who set up suoh men as Canales and Otoga. The admissions made by General Sheridan Strengthen tbe pro. eel of General Ortega, and are evidence enough tnat his arrest was a violation of International neutrality absolutely indefensible, benor Ortegv elected to a high office by too people oi Mexico, claims to have beoome the President of ths.Kepublio by the expiess terms ot tne Constitu tion, upon the expiration of the term lor whloh Benito Jnaiei was e ected. It is a question not of fact but of construction, one which belongs wholly and exclusively to the Mexican people, who, dis turbed by tne invasion of the French, have ha 1 no time to devote to it, and the authority of fcouor Jaarez, who, being to a certain extent in possession, bas claimed to hold over until a new election, has been more or lew acquiesced in. Senor Ortega, although power ess to enforce his claims, has not ceased to ma ntain them, and Geu. Sheridan makes it a point awn t nim that he bas counteract d tne efforts of Juurez by the publication of real or pre tended rights as constitutional President ol Mexico, and has looked forward to the enforcement ol his alleged nphts by an appeal to arms. It is not alleged that anv violation ot our neutrality laws had been actually done or attempted by Menor Ortega: bat General biitridan, .ooking at tbe contest between tne two oatmants for tho Presidency, pre fers Juarez, as being, in his view, the acknowledged bead of the Liberal Government, and repudiates Ortega as inter ering witn J uarez and with the in teieets of Americans; and so, on the same principle that the Remans were arrested in attempting to invade Canada, he arrest Ortega as he was quietly entering Mexico with bis Presidential suite and retainers. Geneial Sheridan suggests that this was done "to Counteract these machinations, and to prevent our neutrality laws from being violated," but no item of proof is given that our neutralitv laws wore being violated, and the tone and character oi General Sheridan's report show that he expects to justify bis aotion on tbe othor groundi whloh we haves pa cified. ' Uad oenor Ortega been arrested for the crime ol violating, or attempting to vio.ate, our neu trality laws, ttie General would nave advised him of the charges, and the Government would have ordered bis trial. Assuming that Geueral Sheridan bas no better defense than that he has submitted, he should be auvired that he, and not Ortoga, bas violated ttie laws of international neutrality br intermeddling in tbe domestic affairs of the peopio Ot Mexico. I he Amonoau Government It 1 ro bented to tbe woild in tho position of violating at the flist opportunity the pledges and principles which Mr. Seward, so long as neutrality was ol importance to ourselves, unceas ingly repeated to tho courts oi Europe. "Our polioy of non-intervention," be declared, "straight, abso lute, and peculiar, bas beoome a traditional one." While tbe echo of oar boastful devotion to this policy yet lingers m the diplomatic atmosphere., we cele brate our restoration to power by an intorleronce with the concerns of our weaker neighbor -an act that is an open violation of international right and International courtesy. Our Government seems emulous of that lnso eut disregard for all law, ex cept tbe law ol the stronger, which the great powers oi Europe too often betray in their intercourse with the lesser. The act which we are compelled thus to denounce Is indeed the act of Geni rol Sneridan, but thi re sponsibility for it rests not upon him, but upon the authority at Washington fiom which proceeded his instructions. Tho country we 1 knows what hand is kept upon the helm of our dip'omaoy. General Sheridan oofs not, in anv letter which Mr. Seward bat permitted to see tbo light, seek to relieve him self ot hi" personal responsibility for tbe arrest of Ortega, lie is a soldier, and obei s order. Chival rous to a fault, bo prefers to bear the odium of a fiolicr of which bo is probably not the author, but he instrument. He may well think be cau afford to trust his own reputation with tbe American peop'e, Who honor and conildo in him. But Mr Reward's popularity wilt not be much increased by tbe dis covery that be is willing to saddle on General Sheri dan so much of Ins diplomacy as he understands to be a blunder. "Pernicious Dream" The Realities of tbe Situation. From the limet. Now, a? before the war, the South is afflicted with dishonest as well as injudicious advisers. It labors under delusions fatal to its peaoc, and regulates its policy with a very remote reference to facts whioi concern it deeply. Its repentance unhappily comes always too late. Not until the other day did a Mobile journal discover that Vf. L. Yanooy was one Of the worst enemies the South ever bad ; and pro bably some time will elapse bofore the majority of Its people hold the promoters and loaders of the Re bellion accountable for the sacrifices they have boon compelled to make and the sufferings they now endure. More progress has been made towards a correct appreciation ot the statements of the Democratic press as to the course vthicli the South may advan tageously puisue. It Is possible to trace the begin ning of an in presuion that the South has been Wantonly, cruelly deceived by its Democratic friends deoeived a to the feeling and purposes of the Northern people, and especially deceived as to tbe Course to be pursued on the aubjoot of Congressional action. Tbeie bas yet been no lorinal indiotmont of the Democracy on the score of laithlessness, but the murmur ug which un through the more moderate of the Bouthorn journals are unmistakable in their significance, lake as a bpecimen the lol lowing paragraph lrom the Macon (Oft.) Journal and &letenier: "Some of the Southern press have, we doubt not Tery undesignedly, aided in disseminating false views oi the reelings aad purposes ot the Northern people in respect to lhoutu, by republishing arti cles from the Day Boole, Metropolitan, and other Northern Joumais of the class Copperhead. These articles are very pleasant reading. 1 hoy resoond lully to the honest convictions of our peop'e in re spect to the cause of the war, and the moral and po litical attitudes of the parties to it. I'hese papers talk ver confidently, too, of a reactionary opinion in the Northern S'ates upon these points, and South ern hope warmiy seconds all such suggestions. But in truth, tiiese are mere dieaun, and in many re spects pernicious dream. Ihey inspire us with lalse bopesand lalsevn ws of the political situation, when it is most ot all desirable that we shou'd fix our tninda upon the sober truth, and mate the best of Our bad and unptemislng condition." The facis thus stated are undeniable. The Demo cratic journals, to which our Southern contorapora ries fondiy appeal as authorities upon the recon struction question, do not give, and never have given , an honest veri-lon of the public opinion whioh controls the Government They are repeating the tricks they precised betoreand during tne war, and With objects identical in tlie r nature with tuoe Whioh tuen influenced them. They are p aying with the Southtrn question for party purposes. And the came they ate engaged in require them, on one (.and, to cheat tbe tum ot Uio Northern, iowo- oiscv bv a falre rendering ot tbe flouth-rn ease, and on the other to delude the honthorn people by a fall exposition of Northern sentiment. The result oi the elrollnns has but partial y andeooived tbe r-outh, bcoence the newspapers of that nct'on con tinue as the Maoon Journal says to dlemlnate the "false vicas" oi the Copperhead press. The whole li nth has not beon permitted to reach the Southern mind. It is told ' of a reactionary opinion In the Northern Ste es." although every Inlelhvent man resident in this latitude knows not only that no reaotlon is Discernible, but that the tendenoy of opinion is In the dlreotion ol ttronrer measures than bave hitherto been proposed, "southern boite warmly seconds all suoh suggestions," no doubt; but tbe occasion calls lor the truth, not for base'es liopis and that is precisely what cannot be gathered from Democratic eo'nmns. 1 he Macon editor has discovered that the calcu lations on wh'cli the South has proooeded in reject ing tte tonst tut, oual amendment, and in tritium to suggest othor terms are "mere dreams " When this conviction become general, as it will be by and by, curS'S will be hesped upon those who have inspired the South "with fa so hopes and false vle.vs ol the political situation." Meanwblle the Journal and Mttstnter cries tor the sotier truth that tie South, instead ot bom victimized by pernio'ous dreams, may learn to make the best or the inevi table. Other Southern newspapers are In the same strait. The Augusta (Ga.) 0nndru(iorotji( asks, with evi dent earnestness," V7ha' does the North really want?" "Does the want tbe Sooth to adopt the Constitu tional amendment nmler a positive guarantes of full restoration t .Let Conrrees make the eolomn asser tion. No such guarantee has ever been given j but wo bsve been deliberately told, beyond denial lrom any authoritative source, that even this hu inflation, vieie our people dispo td to accept it, would not sutl.ee. Gentlemen of Congress, who are supposed to represent the North, tell as, in plain languago, what you really want ns to do in order to secure restoration. It your terms are too exacting we wl'l honestly declare tbora to be so, and submit to the will oi Providence with oloi n hearts. If pos sible ol scooptance, we will aooept them, and acoept them in good fanh. Could any proposition be more fmr to earnest men the men ol '61, who rolled the blue wave of tattle over un, became they loved us and the Union too well to part with either f Let ui reason together; let us tor a season this Christmas s ason, which rings in tne new Christ curb our stubborn pride and be candid The North has the pride or success and the South has the pride ol insult or deleat. Let us divest ourselves of this pride and come to an understanding." The Contfi tutionaiist has caught the right spirit. Its interrogatory may appear superfluous io us at the North, but the intent whloh prompts it merit respect. What, thon, Is "the sober fru:h" which the South must learn to contemplate? What real y are tbe terms with which It must comply to secure restoration? Ihefiist point to bo reeoynlzod by the South is the necessity ol abandoning tho polioy ot passive resistance on which it lias rooecdetl since the adoption by congress of the amendment. For thi policy sulcioa1 as It is, wn fear that tne President is in some degree responsible. Ills own course since the elections has been guided tv an apparent, but nnienablo, expectation that tho roao vo of tho North wonla wear itsolf out, and thar by waiting patiently for that event, he would aoh.eve a triuinpa for his views. That this is a mistake a grievous mii ake on the part of the Presi ent, we are .persuaded. Ilia pas. sivenes is considered obstinaoy, and the resolve of ibe North vrows Btrouver every day. His example, however, bas largely uflocted tho Southern pooplo, The fooling which causes Ihem to rojoot toe amend ment because it excludes their ieaueis from office, induces them to ad1 ere to the polioy ol the t'resl dent, whom tlicy understand to b' their mend. It Is said, indeed, that bo has excited liimeli to press the do-nothing policy upon the South, and thai the decision ol the A abama Legiv'ature is in part attri butable to his influence, lie this as it msy, tho im mobility which he unlortunatelv mistake for (Inn. n ess has beon aooepted as 'he fli tins' property or prirciploot fcou hern statesmanship; the prevailing idea in both cases b-lng that the refusa1 to comply with tbe terms proposed by Congress will neoesitate tbe offer of other and more favorab'e terms. Of ail the 'pen loioiis Dreams" from whloh the South suffers, this Is the worst. II the inortia on one side were more than equal to tbo impel. ing force on tbe o her, the poliey which meets the plans ol Congt ess with a blunt denial might ultimately prevai1. In existing circumsianoes, however, this is impossible. The passive resistance on whioii the South re les must yield to tbe vigorous polioy of the governing States, as surelv as reboiiton yielded to loi alty on the ha' tie-hold. It is simply a question of time; icrthe will of iho ttorth is flxod, ana its power is lully equal to any possible emergency. But the terms? The Conttitutimialist has not far to search to tind them. Just now, they are com piised in ihe peodiug amendment, wbioh the South, in its ''pride of insult or deleat," roluses to accept. The rcqu' st of a guaiantee o.t r stoif tion as a conse quence ot ratifying the amondmont is, as we have repeatedly contended, essentially reasonable. Mr. Si,aldma'B resolution, at nresent b' foro the Rnoon struotion Commit ee, will, we trust, elloit the autho ritative assurance tor which the Augusta journal plead. The dec ai at ions ot Mossis. Shorman and W'ado in the Senate, and the known disposition ot a large proportion of the Ke: nhllcan Uei iewntativs, leave no room to doubt that restoration would fo low lalifioation, Still, Congress would add greatly to the moral strength ol its position l solemnly asserting the intent and scope of the amendment, and so removing the uncertainty which appears in tho Augusta inquiry. What the North really wants the South to do to eecuie res I oration, is to afford guarau ees that Bhill adequately adapt the Constitution to the altered c.icumstances of the country. Tbe North has liamcd tho Amendment as an embodiment of the guarantee it requires. Ihev form the minimum demand which wi 1 be p'esented to the eouth for acceplunce. Ii rejected in their present shape thev will be pressed in somo other, wiih this differ ence, however, that tbe next time tbe North will not consu't the Southern Legislatures, but will cany out the p an in its own way. It is lor the South to dotermine whether the briof opportunity that remains to it shall be wasted or turned to pood account. Nine weeks moro will end the session, and with it the chunce ot restora tion oft the basis ot the Amendment. After tha t our Georgia contemporaries may rest assured resto ration will give place to reconstruction. Tho "sober tiuth" they crave Is in this nutshell. Schemes of the Radicals at Washington. J-'rom the World. The facts given in our special Washington letter, which we published on Saturday, will furnish our readers something ol an idea of the measures which the radicals Intend to resort to for tbe purpose of retaining power, it seems that the impoaohment scheme has not been abandoned, but sim;ly post poned until the meeting of the Fortieth Congress, for the reason that the majority of the Ssnaie refuse to co-operato in a movement oi the kind. They thereto, e psopose now to carry op a system of pre tended investigation, and spread before the publio such gnrbled statements as will, in their opinion, conviuce the Senate of tho necessity of getting rid ot ihe f resident. While these oommittoea are at work, hey propose to have laws that will effectually tie tie hands of the fresidetit, ana divest him of all tl.e power possible. Ihe so-called Southern loyalists are in session there, furmsh'ug oue-sidtd statements in regard to theactionol the Southern people, lor tne purpose ot encouraging the radicals, and thus keepiug them up to a workiuu p int. The scheme especially ad vocated and ur?ed upon Congress by this faotion, shows to what extent the extreme men of the country are ready to p ish their plans to obtain power, There is in all this, especially on the part ol the radical liaders, a boldness, and we m'ght add a rashness, that is somewhat astonishing. They n ake no secret of thoir plans, but proclaim them on a.l occasions, with that assurauoe that oarnos with it perfect confidence, in their own minds, of success. It is probable that were it not for the opposition oi such men as Sherman, liar lis, and Pcssenden, in the beuato, who ret use to do the bidaing o( the ex treme men of the party, the most extraordinary revolutionary measures wou.d be rosoited to. The real object ol all this is, beyond any ooibt the con trol oi the next Presidential e.eotton, and the exclu sion of the Southern States from participating in that e eotion. If, with all of these sohemej, we etcape another contliot, It will be almost a mirab e. It will not be for tbe ant of determination on the part of tbe radical chiefs. The hope of the oountry at present rest.) with the good souse of the Senate, which may reluse to lend itself to the revolu'ionary rciicmcB of the leaders oi the Uouse.
