The Attorney-General'" Opinion. Tub publication of Attorney-General Stan berj'a "opinion" in full confirms the outgiv ings of tlia press for the last few days concern ing its character. It is in effect a nullification Of the Reconstruction law passed by Congress, nd shows very clearly that the President does not intend to execute the law in good faith. It is, in truth, his Justification for not execut ing it. Under a pretense that the law could not be understood, the Attorney-General has been called upon for a construction of it, and he has given just such an one as his master desired. This sudden difficulty of understand ing the law is very singular. The President found no difficulty in understanding it, or pre tending to, when the law was before him for Lis approval or negation. And, strange enough, he understood it then in an exactly opposite Sense from what he now adopts. Stanbery tras his readv tool in both instances. lie is Said to have written the veto messages, and now he furnishes the opinion which stamps the veto messages as deceptive and fraudulent in every important particular. If this "opinion," which Attorney-General Stanbery lias manufactured to order for Andrew Johnson, as his excuse for not exeouting the Recon struction law, be correct, if its allegations be true, if its construction of the law be honest, then the messages vetoing the Reconstruction law, with their high-sounding denunciations, their impassioned arraignment Of its provisions, their statements of the ex traordinary powers It proposed to confer, in deed, their entire tone and spirit, must be put down as deliberate attempts to deceive the people under the guise of solemn official decla rations, and as the mere clap-trap of the most ordinary demagoguery. The veto messages and the opinion cannot both be true. They are diametrically opposed. They treat of the same subject, and contain contradictory state ments upon the same points. Each is a complete refutation of the other. If either be true, the other cannot possibly be so. Such a state of facts as this is must go far to deprive Mr. Johnson of what little confidence anybody still had in him. For instance, how must any man now feel who read and believed Mr. Johnson's arraignment of the Reconstruc tion law in his veto messages, when he finds hy the opinion that said law is an entirely dif ferent thing, and that its supposed specially obnoxious features had no existence in fact f How much cheap indignation, according to this opinion, did Mr. Johnson and his friends waste upon Congress I How grossly he mis represented the character of its acts 1 His de nunciations are now seen to have merely been for effect. It was a deep political game that his Excellency was playing, in which the passions Of the people were to be wantonly aroused, the country gratuitously exasperated, and the fires of political agitation unnecessarily fanned to a flame, lie was an actor, "strutting his brief hour' ' upon the national stage; and he must make his piece lively and entertaining, at whatever disregard of truth. And this is the man who never tires of pluming himself upon his consistency I who always takes the Constitution for his guide t who never eeases to parade his devotion to the good of the country ! The people never stop to regard technicali ties. They go to the root of matters to the great questions really involved. Mr. Stan bery' s pettifogging opinion will not make the .slightest impression upon the publio mind, so far as regards the character of the Reconstruc tion law. The people understand that that law was meant to give effect to a certain policy of reconstruction, as opposed to a certain other policy. It was the triumph of their policy, a3 opposed to his policy. And in this "opinion" they will see nothing but an attempt of the President to override the popular will, to sub stitute his own therefor, and to reopen the Contest whioh BO shook the country last fall. Shall We Have a Special Session of Congress t Whes Congress adjourned in April, both Houses made provision for reassembling before the first Monday in December. By concurrent resolution it was ordered that Congress re assemble on the fourth day of July, and that, in case of no quorum being present, the pre siding officer had power to adjourn until the regular time of meeting in December. This aotion was caused by a deep-seated distrust of the intentions of the Administration. The representatives of the loyal North felt that no confidence could be placed in the Exeoutlve Department of the General Government; and, believing that the laws would not be faith fully executed unless under compulsion, they therefore resolved to reassemble and compel the fulfilment of the provisions of the various hills legally adopted. The time specified for the special session is now drawing near, and he question is a pertinent one as to whether a quorum of the two Houses will assemble, or whether an adjournment will be effected until next winter f The decision is of vital importance, and, in view Of the recent developmenst'in Washing ton, we do not hesitate to declare that it is the Imperative duty of every loyal representative to be in his seat on the first of next month The publio good requires that a special session of Congress be held. The course adopted by the Executive in regard to the meaning and IHE DAILY EVENING : TELEGRAM PHILADELPHIA, MONDAY, execution of the Military bill in an Infamoru ono. By means of legal quibblns the law is to be evaded. A nharp practitioner is anourod as Attorney-General, and all his legal Invention has been for months directed towards seeing how the bill may be defeated and its true meaning perverted. In his two decisions the spirit of the law is laid aside as a useless thing, and Its letter is so perverted that it really means nothing at all. Yet by means of this evasion the aims of the law have been defeated. It is a new idea in our political system, that a Cabinet officer can nullify an act of Congress. The value of the opinion of Judge Stanbery is Just as valuable as that of any other acute lawyer, but the military commanders are to be judges of its application to their cases; yet he has assumed to turn the law from its true intent, and the Executive has declared he has the power; and unless the strong arm of legisla tion intervene, we are in danger of having all the work of a year crumble away before the sophistry of a sub-lieutenant of the Execu tive. It is therefore emphatically necessary that a quorum be present on July 1. There is great work to be done. The Hon. Thaddeus Stevens, one of the wisest statesmen of the age, with all his faults, presents his views in a forcible letter, in which he says: "I think It Is proper to suggest the propriety of liavlcg a quorum In Congress on the first, proximo. Tiio opinions of the Attorney-General teem to require some explanatory or sup plemental ants. A mistake more objectionable tlmn either 1b the fact ot usurpation by the Attorney-General In uotitig at all In the ques tion,, una treating his directions as blndiug olliclally. The Aitorney-Oeneral hns no more ngbt to Interfere than the President hud to re construct, wliioli pretension Congress has set tied, since It has been adjudged that the oon qiiered States are to be treated as subdued terri tory, end to be rebuilt without roferenoe to their former condition by the legislative power alone. It is to be supposed that Congress alone is to be appealed to in case of dimoulty." Here is the question fairly stated. The wings by which this occupant of a Cabinet seat seeks to soar above Congress must be clipped. Supplemental acts are necessary, which will at once and forever set at rest the pretenses of the Attorney -General and the hopes of the Rebels based thereon. In order that anything can be done, it is ne cessary that a quorum be present, and that quorum must consist of Republicans. We cannot count on the absence of any Democrat, in order that the required action may be se cured. They will probably all be in their seats, but will refuse to answer to their names if by so doing the session can be prevented. We therefore urge upon every member the absolute necessity of his being present. The people will hold all delinquents to a strict responsibility. The publio exigency demands their presence; it is criminal to shirk the duty because of the temperature of the weather. We feel confident that when our delegation think over the requirements of the country, at least sixteen of the twenty-four mem bers from the Keystone State will be in their seats, sacrificing their personal ease for the national good. The Park Commissioners. At the last session of the Legislature an act was passed which provided for the extension of Fairmount Park, by the addition to it of the neighboring lands lying within certain limits. But a still more important feature of this law was that which created a Board of Commissioners, to whom the general regula tion and improvement of the Park should bo entrusted. The portions of the act relating to the Commission read as follows: "Section 2. The Mayor, the Presidents of the Select and Common Councils, Commissioner of City Property, theChlef Kugineerand Surveyor, and the Chief Engineer of the Water Works of said city, together with ten clllzens of said city, who shall be appointed for five years, five of whom by the Llstrict Court, and Ave of whom by (he Court of Common Pleas of said olty, be and the same are hereby constituted Commis sioners of said Pork ; they shall organize an nually, on the first Monday of June, by the election of a President and Secretary, but they bhall receive no coinpcnsotlon for their services us Commissioners: Provided, that whenever a vacancy shalloccur In that part of the said Com missioners appointed by the Courts, the Court from which the appointment was made shall fill thevacancy. 'Section 4. The Commissioners of said park, after they shall have secured possession of the ground, shall adopt a plan lor tue im provement and maintenance thereof, and shall Lave powers to proceed with the same, and all moneys expended shall be under their super vision, but no contracts shall be made for said Improvement unless an appropriation therefor shall have been first made by the Councils of said city. "Section 5. As soon as the said Commis sioners shall have fully organized, they shall have the care and management of Fairmount Park on both sides of the river Schuylkill, and all plans and expenditures for the Improvement and maintenance of the same shall be under their control, subject to such appropriations as Councils may from time to time make as aforesaid." Under the operation of the second section, as given above, the following gentlemen were appointed upon the Commission: Kll K. Price, John Welsh, William Sellers, Joseph Harrison, John C. Cresson, Major General Ueorge O. Meade, N. U. Browne, Henry M. Phillips, Theodore Cuyler, Gustavus Uemak. One or two preliminary meetings of the Com mission were held during May, and on the 3d of June a permanent organization was duly effected by the election of his Honor Mayor McMichael as President, General George G. Meade as Vice-President, Joseph F. Marcer as becretary, and N. B. Browne as Treasurer. Having thus organized, the Commission at once took possession of Fairmount Park and assumed its management. On this event we must certainly congratulate such of the people of Philadelphia as desire to see Fairmount Park what it ought to be, in order that it may not be a disgrace to the city. A responsible body of men, restricted la its numbers, can manage such an institution much better than a single official, or such unwieldy concerns as the two branches of the City Councils. But we greatly fear the . Commission made mistake at the very beginmng of their operations, by excluding from their meetings all the outside world, iu. eluding the representatives of the press, The proper management of Fairmount Park is essential to the health and attractiveness of ' the city, and in the Improvements which will from time to time be made, as well 3 la It. general regulation, thousands of dollars of the ' nniillft ninnRTI miifli npnmtaarilv naM tVirnrrTn I - j j 4 ...,u,.v. the hands of the Commissioners. For these reasons, every taxpayer in the city is as much interested in the proceedings of the Commis sion as are its own memlmrs. No possible good can result from investing these proceed ings with seoreoy; and whether or not corrup tion does obtain a foothold in the Park Com mission, the publio at largo will always entertain some suspicion of its existence, by reason of their sad experience with similar bodies in the past. Hitherto, the Secre tary has been accustomed to furnish the reporters of the daily tournala with a very brief and meagre outline of the pro ceedings of the Commission, which has only tended to arouoe, without satisfying the curi osity of those who are anxious to see Fair mount Park a credit to the city. Such persona would be gratified with a perusal of the de bates, as well as of all the proceedings of the Commission in detail. To enable the press to furnish this, its representatives should be ad mitted to every business meeting of the Com mission. This is rendered all the more neces sary by the fact that on Saturday a meeting of the Commission was held, commencing at noon and adjourning shortly after 1 o'clock, after which the Secretary refused to furnish the reporters in attendance with any account of the proceedings. We hope . the Com mission will reconsider their action in ex cluding the publio, and thereby afford all who are interested the privilege of being pre sent at their meetings. Tbxap. General Griffin, and General Reynolds of Texas report to General Sheridan that Judge Reeves, of the Ninth Judicial DUtrict of that State, in a charge to tbe Grand Jury of his Court, staled he should not receive the testimony of negroes, as the laws of Congress on the sub ject were unconstitutional, and he, therefore, defied them. They also report the same facts against Judge Dougherty, who stated, In the headquarters ol (ieneral Reynolds, that, as re gards the tebtitnouy of negroes, he would not recognize the law or authority of Congress and will be bound only to the sovereign State of Texas. Repi rts of a like character are coming in almoi-t daily horn the different parishes of Texas. Some members of tbe Opposition iu the Eng lish House ot Commons having made an attack upon Lcrd Stanley's course in the recent Peace Conference of London, Lord Stanley m reply stated that, had England hesitated to (rive her adhesion to the collective guarantee ot the neu trality of Luxembourg, the armies, of France and Prussia would be n jw in the field, and all Kurope would be involved in war. Lord Stanley also stated that the Luxembourg treaty, as signed in London, did not bind any power to interfere duply In the eventualities which may arise relative to tbe future of Luxembourg. Amono the latest royal arrivals in Paris is that ot tbe new King of Egypt, who arrive 1 yester day. The Cable states that he met with an enthusiastic reception, but similar statements were made on the arrival of Cher monarch?, and have been contradicted by tbe more accu rate steamer intelligence. The author of the despatches probably mistook curiosity for en thusiasm. According to Turkish despatches, Omar Pasba, on the 3d of June, obtained an important victory over the Cretan insurgents, and secured possession of a rock-bound valley which is con sidered one of the strongest places on the island. The despatch claims less than many previous despatches, which announced the entire sup pression ot the insurrection, and wcro subse quently found to be mere inventions; and it is hardly entitled to any greater credit.
