Onr National Position and Prospect.
History has its perspective as well as art. It
is only as we drift away from great events that
they begin to stand out before us in their true
magnitude, and we commence to see the rela
tion they lear to the welfare and progress of
the human race.
Our late great war is already commencing
to occupy something of this historio perspec
tive. Doubtless, we do not even yet realize
to its full extent the true position which it
held with reference either to the destinies of
our own country or to the larger movements
of the human race. But we can begin to see
that it was, so to speak, the decisive pointin
the progress of republican principles both In
our own country and throughout the world.
It was the culmination of the "irrepressible
conflict" between the eternally antagonistic
principles of human equality and inequality
or, in other words, between the forces of free
dom and slavery, which had been waged In
our own Government from its foundation down
to the hour of physical conflict, and whose
dying embers still cast a fitful though fading
glare over our national politics. ' j
When our fathers, ninety-one years ago
yesterday, in this city, proclaimed those im
mortal truths of the equality of all men, their
inalienable right to life, liberty, and the pur
suit of happiness, and the consent of the
governed as the only true basis of rightful
human government, they started a movement
which was destined to revolutionize the face
of society thoughont the world. The doctrine
of human equality, which is really the basis
of the entire declaration, is not only an affir
mation of the human reason, as our fatherg
maintained when they asserted it to be a
s elf-evident truth, but it i3 equally a tenet of
the Christian religion; so that in founding the
Government upon this principle, the heroes
and sages of the Revolution were but applying
the fundamental doctrines of Christianity to
the problem of civil rule. : " Now, the
war of the Rebellion was simply a con
test to determine whether this prin
ciple, the ' only ' ' possible principle of
free government in our own country, or in
any other, should be given up as the basis of
American society. Philosophical minds upon
both sides oomprehended this instantly, and it
was the instinctive appreciation of this fact by
the loyal masses that inspired them to such
noble displays of patriotism, and that imparted
to the struggle its moral grandeur and its
highest glory. Our opponents themselves con
ceded that it was against this vital principle Of
free government that they had revolted. Mr.
Stephens, of Georgia, in his celebrated "corner
Stone" speech, avowed this fact with equal
boldness and candor. "Those ideas," said
Mr. Stephens, referring to the ideas in vogue
among the framers of the Constitution, "those
ideas, however, were fundamentally wrong.
Thev restful nnnn tha naanmnMnn nt !,
equality of races. This was an error. It was
a sandy foundation, and the idea of a Govern
ment built upon it was wrong; when the
storm came and the wind blew, it fell.
"Our new Government is founded upon ex
actly the opposite ideas ; its foundations are
laid its corner-stone rests upon the great
truth that the negro i s not equal to the white
man ; that slavery, subordination to the supe
rior race, is his natural and normal condition.
This, our new Government, Is the first in the
history of the world based upon this great
physical, philosophical, and moral truth." '
Mr. Stephens was right in his statement of the
fundamental difference between the Govern
ment established by the men who made the
Declaration of Independence, and that which
he and his fellow Rebels were endeavoring
to erect upon its ruins, when once it should be
overthrown.
The despots of the Old World took the same
view of the case. In their opinion repub
lican government wa upon trial. Its crucial
Lour had come. The contest was already vir
tually decided against it, and the vultures were
gathering to pluck the bones of the carcass.
It is safe to say that, throughout the world'
there was not a supporter of class privilege
and aristocratio or despotic power not an
enemy of popular liberty, who did not give to
the loyal cause in America the meed of h'm
profoundest malediction. I
The principles of 1776 triumphed. The
truths of the Declaration of Independence were
hallowed by the blood of au innumerable mul
titude who fell in their defense. The Govern
ment founded upon the idea of human equality
proved to be founded on a rock, and not upon
the sand, as its enemies had predicted. The
rains had descended and the floods had come,
and the house had not fallen. But the struc
ture founded upon the great "physical, philo
sophical, and moral" falsehood of the natural
and essential inequality of the members of the
human family, had fallen, half-erected, into
complete and irremediable ruin. And with it
had gone the whole system of American arid
tocracy. The revolution inaugurated to over
throw freedom had swept away slavery. The
- nation was at last freed from tho inaubus that
- Lad, for almost a century, weighed dowa Its
energies. The spot upon the national escut
cheon had been wiped out. The long-staudj-Ing
impediment to the potency of our example
had at last been removed. No longer could
foreign nafcions reproach ns as a land of slaves.
The rule of the slave-lords was over at home.
Our recurring National Anniversary finds
u, therefore, occupying high VAntage ground.
Never before did the United SUtes stand so
high in the respect of all nations. Never was
our influence upon the world in favor of free
institutions and popular government so pow
erful as now. Never before was the nation So
well fitted to go forward and, under God, to
achieve a sublime and beneficent destiny. We
have done much in the past, but grander
achievementsawaltusin the future. The United
States is destined to be the leader of the na
tions in all the great works of reform. Chris
tian civilization is here to accomplish its
greatest triumphs, and to bestow its richest
blessings upon man.
Congress and its Work.
Cosokuss takes hold of its work promptly)
and shows a disposition to confine itself en
tirely to the subject of reconstruction. The
bill already introduced by Senator Wilson
covers the main points upon which the present
law has been practically nullified by the Presi
dent. It provides in terms for the definite
overthrow of the unconstitutional and usurpa
tory organizations called State Governments
in the late Rebel States. This we prefer to
simply calling them "provisional" govern
ments, and leaving them to be set aside at the
will of the commanding officer. They are in
the way of a genuine reconstruction, and
should be removed. Moreover, we think that,
as totally illegal organizations, a part of the
unauthorized and unconstitutional work of
Mr. Johnson, they should be overthrown.
Every day they exist, even though it be as
provisional organizations, compacts and
strengthens them as de facto organizations.
Remove them, and there will then be no op
portunity for manufacturing bogus Senators to
be sent up to Washington to claim seats. The
very essence of the contest between Congress
and the President has related to these organi
zations, and as long as they are suffered to
exist they strengthen his position and weaken
that of Congress. They should, therefore,' be
at once extinguished. Hence we trust that
the feature of Senator Wilson's bill which
provides in express terms for the termination,
at a specified time, of these illegal organiza
tions, will be preserved in whatever bill may
finally be passed. j
The other vital point is in regard to regis
tration. Under Stanbery's interpretation of
the present law, there is no going behind any
man's oath, even though it may be known to
the Register, and to everybody else, that he is
committing the foulest perjury. Such was
not the intention of Congress, and is not a
fair interpretation of the law ; but since it is
made, Congress should guard the point with
plain and specific provisions. Certain classes
of those who were prominent participators in
the Rebellion should be excluded from the
work of reconstruction, and the provisions of the
law should be made sufficiently explicit to
admit of no evasion.
The Husiness Prospects of the Autumn.
Since the autumn of 18G6 the business inte
rests of the entire country have been languish
ing. Various causes have combined to pro
duce this stagnation. A feeling of general in
security in the finances, an anxiety on the
question of reconstruction, as well as the pres
sure of a large supply of goods on hand, all
joined to keep down that activity which is so
earnestly desired by the business portion of
our citizens. We do not belong to the class of
which Mrs. Gummidge is the type, nor are we
advocates of the Seward optimism; but, look
ing at the prospects of the country from a dis
interested point of view, we see a much
brighter path fer mercantile transactions 'di
rectly ahead of us. Many of the oppressive
causes have been or are about being removed.
The dread of a financial crash, which has been
so prevalent, is now speedily disappearing.
The people see that, although our currenoy
is inflated, there 'Is no immediate
sign of a crash. The Government's credit
has never been better, and the unani
mous declarations of all political parties
in favor of the sacredness of the national
debt, as well as the union of so many
interests of the masses with those of the Gov
ernment, all tend to remove an unexpressed
fear that the day of a panic was not far off.
The removal of this dread will put in circula
tion funds heretofore lying idle, and tend
greatly to resuscitate the activity of our busi
ness marts. Then, again, the supply of goods
laid in in 1865 has grown gradually smaller,
until, by the arrival of the fall, it will be
almost exhausted. The fabrics bought at
high figures two years ago have' been sold for
less, the purchasers finding it impossible to
carry them longer, and hence new stook is
called for. Thus, by the simplest rule of sup-
T 1 . 1 1 -i ,' 1 ' L 1 .
"j nun demand, we may anticipate uu ucuve
fall Reason. The anticipation of this is already
causing our business men to feel more hopeful.
Then, lastly, the vexed question of recon
struction looks as though it would at last be
definitely BetUed. The fight so long continued
is at last about ceasing, by reason of the con
quest of one of thu pgrtiea. The struggle be
tween the executive and legislative depart
ments, pursued through, two sessions by the
obstinacy of Mr. Johnson, i8 almost ended by
his defeat, his utter rout. With a criminal
disregard for the mercantile Interests of our
land, he has been seeking to delay- reconstruc
tion for personal ends, willingly and wilfully
casting all our business interests to the winds if
he could but gain his ends. At last, however
tho prospect of a solution of the difficulty seems
nigh, and with it the revival of trade must
come. We therefore expect a lively season
and congratulate our merchants on the pros
pect, as we do our farmers on the excellent
of their crops.
Janrez nn Usurper.
Iw commenting upon the cruel and barbarous
murder of Maximilian, by order of Juarez, it
should not be forgotten that Juarez himself, by
the terms of the Mexican Constitution, Is no
longer the rightful President his term of
office having long since expired but is an
usurper. Ills constitutional successor, Ortega,
was ready to assume the functions of the
office, but Juarez has kept him a virtual
prisoner. This bloody example of Juarez is
quite likely to be followed by the next faction
that shell succeed in obtaining temporary con
trol of the country.
Tub Adsbntkes. When the House of Repre
sentatives met on Wednesday, every member
of the Republican delegation for Pennsylvania
answered to his name. The only Representa
tives from our State who were not present
were Messrs. Randall, Boyer, Getz, Van Arken,
and Glossbrenner, all of whom are Democrats.
These persistent efforts to prevent the presence
of a quorum, and thus delay the reconstruc
tion of the South, prove that they know that
Stanbery and Johnson are wilfully misinter
preting the Military bill, and that in their
evasion of the law they have the support of the
Democratic party.
Death of au Esteemed Citizen.
The Rev. William Mann, D.D., a well-known
and highly respected divine of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, died yesterday, at the rest
donee of his son, Hon, William B. Mann, after
a lingering illness, at the gooi old age of
eiphtj-ihree.
Tbe deceased was a gentleman of a high order
of native ability, which by the careful culture Of
a very studious and temperate youth, fitted him
at an early period for tbe instruction of others;
and many of our fellow townsmen whose attain
ments have made tbem eminent, are tD-day
gratelully indebted to the deceased for their
early mental training.
Apart from his reputation as a matured
scholar, his taste for chaste literature, and his
earnest devotion as a servant of God, he pos
sessed those gentle virtues which in old age
soften our veneration Into love.
His lips knew no words of reproach; chari
table and forglvimr to those who erred, he
tonght rather to admonish the delinquent by
the Instructive examples of antiquitiy, with
whom his love of research had made him
familiar, than by words which would causes
pans of pain or a blush to the offender. 1
Of those who follow him to his last resting
plate on Monday next, there will be many who
In the hour of trial have been comforted by the
wisdom ot his counsel: and many others who
will gratefully remember his influence upon
their boyhood .
What a study it would be for the philosopher,
to ascertain how much benefit posterity has
oerived Irom one so good, so learned, and so
pure.

would relate which probably went a good wuy

wbo had visited the seminary twice and tils

up there yesterday orowuing the young ladies,
and ir he (tlie President) had failed to come here
to-day the boys would have been angry and not
voted for him If ever he ran for the Presidency
atiaiu. (Laughter.) The speaker alluded to the
necessities oi thorough, education and the over
sight In parents who only partially educated
their sons. He spoke of the influence of the
mother over her boy in her early religious
teachings, and continued for some time with
much ellect.
President Johnson, in response, said, In ad
dressing tbe young men who graduated, as well
as the oilier students of the college:
