General Lee and the Congressional Finn of .Reconstruction. No Letter evidence of the increasing popularity of the Congressional plan of reconstruction could be dosired than the manifesto of Oanoral Robert E. Lee, published by us a few days eince. In that document he avows himself strongly in favor of the people of Virginia voting for a convention, and urges every man, not actually disfranchised, not only to take the necossary steps to prepare himself to vote, but to prepare all his friends, white and colored, to vote also. Not only this, but the General actually endorsos the oath to be takon by voters, saying that it "is such as every citizen, not disfranchised, ought now to be able to take, as a simple matter of truth and duty as a citizen of the country." These are significant words, and, coining from General Lee, will have wonderful weight with the late Uebel portion of the Southern people, lie is their idol, lie was their great leador during the war, and it must be con fessed displayod many fine military qualities. His modest and unostentatious bohavior since the war closod has done much to soften the feelings even of loyal men towards him. His present utterances will tell powerfully upon public sontiment all over the South. And what a contrast does this act'on of Robert K. Leo's present tothat of our Northern conservative fanatics I While they, are de nouncing the wise and humane provisions of the Reconstruction law, making mock lamen tations over the destruction of so-called South ern "States," hypocritically bemoaning the downfall of civil liberty, prating about mili tary despotism, and making noodlas of them Pelves generally, General Lee accepts tho situation in good faith, recognizes the citizen ship of the freedmen, declares the test oath to be such a one as every good citizen ought to be able to take, and urges the poople to go to work honestly and unitedly under the law. The truth is, our Northern conservative fanatics are terribly chagrined and exaspe rated because they see that tho Congressional plan of reconstruction is working like a charm, and is going to succeed. They had a lot of little pocket States, cooked up by President Johnson, in which all the political power was pltusod in tho hands of the late Rebels, and the Union men dis franchised, by the admission of which they lioped to rush into Congress a lot of Demo cratic Senators and Representatives, and then cast a solid Southern vote for the Democratic candidate for President in 1808. This nice little scheme was "knocked into a cocked hat" by the plan of reconstruction adopted by Congress ; and hence the tears and groans of the conservative fanatics. Practical men, however, of all parties men who care more jor the reconstruction of the Union upon fair and liberal terms than they do for the tri umph of partisanship will rejoice that tho plan adopted by Congress is likely to prove so successful. Already the New York World is forced to admit that no party in its senses will dare to go into the campaign of 180'S on tho issue of repealing the Reconstruction law. What better evidence of its intrinsio adapted ness to the case in hand could be desired ? It is doing the work. It is restoring the Union. It is promoting a better state of feel ing between the Southern whites and blacks than has ever before prevailed. It is breaking up Southern lethargy and despair. It is send ing new life through the entire framework of Southern society. In the face of practical results like these, what do the ravings of our old pro-slavery, conservative, Rip Van Winkle fanatics of the North amount to ? The City Pulpit. We publish on our sixth page to-day the inaugural sermon of tho Rev. Dr. Allen, the new pastor of Old Pine Street Church; the sermon of the Rev. S. A. Mutch more, in dedicating tho new Cohocksink Pres byterian Church; and the Rev. Dr. Poinber ger's discourse on "The Model Character," delivered before the Young Men's Christian Association. These sermons are all exceed ingly interesting and eloquent, and will repay perusal. On our eighth page will likewise be found the tirade against Christianity which Andrew Jackson Davis delivered last evening at Wash ington Hall. The doctrines of Harmonic Spiritualism are set forth in this in language that is by far more forcible than elegant. General Loxostreet on the Situation. The ex-Rebel General James Longstreet is out in a strong letter urging the people of the South to go to work under the Reconstruction act. He looks at the matter from the stand point of a soldier, presenting a manly and sensible view of the case, much more so than that taken by our Northern conservative fanatics, who think that the conquered, rather than the conqueror, should prescribe the terms of settlement. The General's letter will be found on our first page. The Tendencies op Ritualism. Elsewhere in to-day's Evening Telegraph will be found an able review of the tendencies of Ritualism, as viewed from the Catholic standpoint. The writer, who is a professed adherent of the Romish Church, shows conclusively that the adoption of the new "innovations" will un proteBtantize the EpiscopalJChurch, and that the latter will baoome, in everything save name, a branch of the former. Vkto Numdbr Twelve. President Johnson's vetoes hare ceased to excite publio attention. We doubt if one person in . fifty takes the trouble even to read thorn. They argue a oase Which la the publio mind has already been decided, and which there is no disposition to reverse. The President's last effort In this line, number twelve, vetoing the Supplementary Reconstruction bill, was sent to the House of Representatives on last Saturday. Hut little attention was paid to Its reading, and no dis cussion ensued, Mr. Wilson, of Iowa, simply moving the previous question on the passage of the bill, which tho House sustained", and passed the bill by a vote of 114 yeas to 25 nays. In the Senate, a like line of proceeding pre vailed, and the bill passed without debate by a vote of 40 yeas to 7 nays. Those who take the trouble to "keep posted" on these vetoes will find this last one well answered, first, as to its characterization of the Reconstruc tion bill, by a comparison of the features of that bill with the plan of re construction adopted in Tennessee by one An drew Johnson, Military Governor, in 1864; and, secondly, as to its simulated apprehension of evil results, by a referenco to the work of re construction already inaugurated in the South under the act. The practical results of that act, as already developing themselves, are a triumphant refutation of the fallacies of Mr. Johnson's vetoes. General Sickles' Order Assuming Command op the Second District. General Sickles has issued an admirable order on assuming com mand of the Second District under the Recon struction act, consisting of South Carolina and North Carolina. He informs the people that the civil Governments now existing there are provisional only, and in all respects sub ject to the paramount authority of the United States at any time to abolish, modify, or supersede the same. When the local civil tribunals fail to arrest persons charged with committing crime, the military power will be promptly exerted. The General earnestly invites the co-operation of all good citizens in preventing conduct calculated to disturb the peace, and earnestly commends to tho people of North and South Carolina unreserved obe dience to the authority now established, and the diligent, considerate, and impartial execu tion of the laws enacted for their government. What's Up? Our Democratic contempo rary contains a savage attack upon President Johnson, in connection with the case of Mrs. Surratt. He is not mentioned by name, it is true, but as he was the responsible party in that affair, without whom the sentence of death could not have been executed, the strictures of our oontemporary must, of course, be intended for him. We are tempted to ask, What is the matter? Has not Mr. Johnson done enough yet to commend him to the Democratic leaders? Why are these old matters raked up against him ? Considering what ho has done for the Democratic party, we must protest that this kind of warfare against President Johnson is hardly fair. SPECIAL NOTICES. m HON.

RAKER'S ITistory of tho Secret Service. The Most Exciting and Interesting Book Ever Pub lished! This work embraces an authentic and official ac couiit ot the hitherto suppressed lucts and Informa tion obtained by Ueneral Baker, during his five years' service as Chief ol'lhe National Detective Police. IC was announced a year ago, but owing to tbe attempts of the Government to suppress U, Its publication was delayed. It will now be issued, unaltered and un abridged, under the supervision of General Baker. The little Information and meagre accounts of his operations d rived from the newspapers of the day, have only awakened a more Intense de.slre in the mines of the reading community, Io learn still more of tie mysteries heretofore hidden by the curtain of official surveillance. This book effectually lifts tbe veil of seeresy, and lays bare their Inward recesses to tbe inspection and criticism of the world. The morals of the National Capital are thoroughly ventilated, and there are some stratum revelations concerning heads of departments, members of Con gress, female pardon brokers, aud distinguished mili tary characters. For ilirlllli'g interest these marvellous narratives of General Baiter eclipse the lamous expei lances of iOlCUJi. and VJDOCQ. and possess the rare nierll of truth for their recommendation, being all attested by the blgbext nilicial authority.
