The cigar makers of this city are making earnest endeavors to lndnce all among their Cuban workmen to act 'unanimously, and declare themselves on a strike, not for higher wages in one sense of the word, but for the return of the pay they were receiving in the early part of the year, before tbe new tax law went Into force At that lime, onacoountof a lull in tbe export trade, they allowed their employers to reduce ther wages. Dow that tbe aloresaid cause is removed, and that they find themselves obliged to pay double for necessaries, as everything is increased in value, they consider themselves Justified in providing for their needy families. The city authorities take sides with the wealthy em ployers In grinding down the poor to a starving rnndliion. and the Governor comes out with an order, enjoining It upon the former not to take nv oneiatives. unless provided with a certifi cate from tbe police ward, admonishing them that they shall be held responsible for tailing to report every application, made demanding blgher wages, and to be, dealt with as a dis turber of the public peace for the offense. The Diario and prensa, as worthy advocates of dea. potisra, endorse this resolution aa a wise act, showing the right spirit in our Governor.

British Preparations for the March from India tneen Victoria's Reply to Kins; Theodore Ills Love Letters Answered with Kitted Uuns. TheEng lsh preparations for the Abyssinian campaign had fairly begun. On Monday, the 25th of Anguat, the depart ments In Woolwich Arsenal received instruc tions from the War Department to occupy themselves In the arrangements for furnishing the expedition, which ia to be despatched from India with the slightest possible delay. The seven-pound rifled guns for mountain warfare would shortly be ready for shipment, and two additional batteries of steel guns on the same principle were in preparation. The weight of each gun will not exceed one hun dred and fifty pounds. Twelve carriages, also of steel, for their equipment, are to be made. The weight of each carriage, without wheels, will be less than one hundred pounds, and tbey will thus be available for transport lu the most rugged and difficult passes of the enemy's country. The expedition will be under the chief com mand of Major-General Napier and Brigadier General Stavely. The Ixindon Post says the foroos employed will comprise all branches of the service. The infantry will consist most probably of two of her Majt sty's regiments of the line, and eight regiments of native Puujoubuo Infantry. The cavalry will be composed of aboutslx regimen is of Indian irregular troops, while the artillery will include, besides mountain guns, two but teries of royal artillery. It is reported that the Viceroy of E?ypt had been requested to provide five thousand camels for the necessary transport of the British troops. THE DANO-GERMAN QUESTION. Danish Feeling Towards Bchleswljr. The Fadreland, of Copenhagen, says a ban quet was given on the 25lh of August by the members of the Danish Military Club, at whloh tbe King of Denmark, the Crown Prince, and the Czarewltch of Russia were present. The Danish Minister of War made a speech, la which be declared all bis efforts had been de voted towards the formation of an organized, well-equipped, and enthusiastic urmy, in order to be in readiness when the moment should arrive for reoonqueiing the territory which Denmark bad lost. The King looked very serious during tbe delivery of tills speech, and later in the evening his Majesty had half aa hour's conversation with the Minister of SVar. FRANCE. Napoleon's Speeches The Return from Salzburg and Popular Rejoicings by the Way Ills Majesty Defines Ills Position What France Wants and What She Defends. By the steamship City of Baltimore we have written mail accounts of the reception accorded to Napoleon and Eugenie In the manufacturing districts of France on their return from Salz burg, with reports of the speeches delivered by the Emperor at Arras and Lille, wliioli nave been already summarized In our cable des patches. The report says: Napoleon, while en route to Paris, on bis return from Ualzbnrg, had been making speeches lu some of the provincial cities which attract attention. In response to an address from tho Mayor of Arras he said: You are right to have confidence in the future. It la only weak governments who seek in foreign complications to divert attention from troubles at home. But he who derives hla strength from the great body of the nation bas only to do his duly and to satisfy the perma nent interests of the country; and, while hold ing aloft the national flag, we should not allow ourselves to be drawn away by intemperate Impulses, however patriotic they may be. I thank you for the sentiments you have ex pressed towards the Empress and our son. Be assured that they share my devotion for France, and that their most ardent wish ia to put an end to all misery and alleviate all mis fortunes. Despatches from Lille state that tbelr Majes ties were received la that town with eut.au siasm, and passed through the streets and boulevards in an open carriage. The lollowing is tbe text of the reply made by tbe Emperor to the address presented by the Mayor of Lille. He said: When some years ago I came for the first time to visit the Department of the Nord, every thing smiled upon my wishes. I had just es poused tbe Km press, and, I may say, I had also fust wedded France, before eight millions of witnesses. Order was restored, political pas sions were lulled to rest, and I foresaw for the country a new era of greatness and prosperity. At home the union existing among all good citizens presaged tbe peaceful dawn of liberty abread. I suw our glorious flag protecting every cause of civilizing Justice. During the last four teen years mauy of my hopes have been realized, and ereat progress bas been accomplished. Dark spots, however, have darkened our horizon; but even as good fortune has not dazzled me, so transient reverses will not discourage me. How should 1 be discouraged when I see from one end of France to the other the people meeting the Kmrress and myself witn acclamations, lu which are nnceasl ugly associated the name of our son. 'l o-cioy i uia not come nere only to celebrate a glorious anniversary in the capital of ancient Flanders. I also come to learu your wants, to heighten the courage of some, to confirm tho confidence of all, and to enaeavor to increase tne pros- Jierlty of this great department by still urther developing its agriculture, manufac tures, and commerce. You will aid me, gentle men, In this noble task, but you will not forget that tne nrst conaitionoi tne prosperity or a nation like ours Is to possess the consciousness of its own strength, and not allow itself to be depressed Dy imaginary tears, but to rely upon tbe wisdom and patrlotlsmof the Government. The Empress, touched by the sentiments which you express, unites witu me in manning you for your warm and sympathetic welcome. The London Xietvs says the Emperor Napo leon's reported speeches at Arras and Lille make a very welcome and desirable sequel to tbe unreported conversation at Salzburg, and trusts tbey will succeed in allaying the irri tation of the Prussian press and the suspicion of the German people. The London Timet remarks that though the expressions In tbe Emperor's two speeches nave tne usual vagueness oi tne imperial style, tbey are undoubtedly peaceable In their tenor. The language of a part of the Frenoh press elves sulUcient reason that warlike Intentions should be explicitly denied, and the j-iondon Tones believes that tbe Emperor's sincere wish was to remove the disquietude that bis recent Salz burg journey bad caused. It would be to belie his baacltv to believe that he intends to pre cipitate a g'lganllo conflict with forty millions of Germans. Existing Treaties Respect for the Ha- lieati uuaranieea. From La France, of Paris, August 28. Austria. Franco, and England, pro bably also other governments, are united in their policy, wuicu may oe eiuuiueu up m tue.io terms: Respect for the treaties of Paris and Prague, nothing more, nothing less. This policy bas nothing aggressive or ambitljus in Its char acter whloh could excite Russia or Prussia, or of which they couia complain, n, aa we nope, these powers are resolved not to depart from the stipulations of treaties they have signed, It is of a nature to consolidate tbe peace of Europe, and render war perilous for those ambitious powers who should act against It.

The work of regis tration in Georgia Is nearly completed, and tbe results to this date are aa follows: Whites. 89.892: Colored. 83.082. Total. 183.574. Colored majority, 8710. it is not supposed mat tne entire registration In Georgia will equal 188,000. It la well known that not all the Ireedinen entitled to registra tion have registered, but counting them only at 63,600, and multiplying by five (too low a rate), to obtain the total negro population, it gives us ltiH.000, exceeding by nearly 3H00 the to al colored (slave and free) population of Georgia In I860. These figures must be highly consolatory to men persons as the Georgia correspondents of some Northern Copperhead sheets, who have lately been wringing their hands In anguish over the and fate of nearly one-half of our black population, "the victims of Emancipation aud the Freedmen's Bureau," demanding. In a paroxysm of pseudo-philanthropy, an account from this radical Congress. The black popula tion of Georgia is larger than herein stated much larger not to mention the notoriously large emigration of (reedmen from Goorglu t' Mississippi out of Florida.

Let the President Kesign! Tbe political war has at length reached that point where a strong, bold movement on the part of President Johnson is the only thing that will restore tbe country to peace and prosperity. The radicals have struck blow after blow at all the intelligence of the country, until tbey threaten to level It with the vilest staudartl that tbe land can produce. To obtain political vic tory it matters not bow many cherished principles they trample under foot; how many safeguards of our republicanism they tear down; how thoroughly they obliterate every element or stability in the count ry; how near to. the verge of military despotism they drive the car of state. They are bent on win ning tbe race for party, and they have sunk country far in the background, as a considera tion of little Importance in comparison. To defeat them, to restore our republican insti tutions, now becomes with us the mighty Sroblem. To do this we must dive down elow the radloal froth, and in a deeper cur rent seek safety in the almost burled common sense of the people. To make the people feel tbe full Import of that which rests bo heavily upon them, Andrew Johnson should resign and appeal to them. Let blui resign, and demand that a convention of all t he States be called to take measures against this political ruin that Congresa la hurling against the republic. Let him tell tbe people thufc he finds it impossible to resist entirely this attempt of Cougiessto assume dictatorial power and Inaugurate a new revolution. Let him show to them the political ?lcture as it exists commerce wrecked, the 'reasury Department In ruins, the revenue ad ministered for the benefit of those who hold the offices, the wealth of the nation squandered, an exhaustive Indian war on baud for the benefit of agents and contractors, half the States uuder military dictatorship, the other half threatened witb a similar government, corruption every where, vice making a throne of virtue, and the country driving madly through tbe same politi cal phases that preceded the French revolution. Are the people prepared for all this? Are they prepared to see the negro element set up at auction as the instrument through which the unprincipled politicians may ride into power? Do tbey taste the bitterness lu advance of what such a future haa lu store for tbem? If they do not, then Is the country already dead, aud naught but a long night of anarchy and revolution can awaken it from its lethargy. The negro to shapo our political future! to drive our great republic to Us destiny! Are we so lost to all respect of race and brain power that we can settle down before this radical Idol, aud see in Its blackness the glory ot the land, instead or its ruin 7 Let Mr, Jobu son look to this, and let him rise to the de mands of the time by throwing himself into the arms or the people, who, nauseated with this radical rule, are ready for a chauge and a reaction which will restore health aud visor to tbe land. The President, leading la the movement, may form a new party, and. through tne overwneiming votes oi tne inteiii- rence of the country, be restored totbeexecu ive power. The country wants In such a party no narrow platform of faction, but the great and broad elements of action that will restore the nation to Its former vigor, Finances and progress must be the moving forces. The Rebellion must be fonrotten. and universal amnesty must cut the South aloof from the proconsulshlps that threaten to ad vance northward. Tbe radicals must be taught that mere is something besides party ambition for the spoils to give motive power to a political faction. Tbey must learn, too, that the nation. In a terrlule reaction, will hold them to account for the desolation whloh for two years has marked tbelr political track. The nearo, too. tilled with raise ideas or the role be is to play in the future, must be placed on the level of his Intellectual ability; aud with every guarantee of freedom, let him work hla way npwards to tne mil extent oi ins powers, -jnow is the mo ment for Mr. Johnson to seize fortune at the Hood.

At a late meeting ot oj8termen held In Norfolk.fa committee was appointed to wait upon General Schodeld in re ference to the recent ojster law, which has given rise to so much dissension and trouble since Its passage by the Virginia Legislature, principally from the fact that the mode of col lecting the tax on the oysters was accomplished without system or correctness. The committeo design placing their views before General 8cho tleid, and expect by his decision there will in future be but one tax to be paid in addition to tbe specific tax. The great diiliculty in the pre sent law, aud of which the oystcrmen have com plained, Is that many vessels are deserfinor the waters ot Virginia, which they formerly visited, giving an impetus to the trade and brightening up business of all kinds, and now frequent the Maryland waters, where there ia no other than the specific tax imposed on the labors of this enterprising portion of tbe community. The heavy tax imposed by the law on all vessels en gaged In catching oysters, or in the trade, has tbe effect of limiting the operations and de stroying the labors of the hardy Virginia oyster men.

The festivities at the recent mnrrlaga of Sln dla's heir In India are described in the Gwalior OatrUe. Tbe following is a translation of the report: "The ceremony of the holy 'pooja' was per formed with a thousand festivities and delight In tbe following manner: About an hour before sunset the bridegroom left the royal palace for the pnrf o e of performing the ceremony of the holy 'pooja.' lie was mounted on an elephant with embroidered trappings, embellished with jewels ar.d diamonds, and a canopy of beaten sold. Tbe procession, consisting of the nobles and officers, all on elephants, high as mountain, in a semi-circle behind the bridegroom, the cavalry with their comely accoutrements, the battalions in their gay regimentals, the batter ing trains of artillery, spearmen and bannermon, followed the bridegroom through Dowlut (iunj, and the new bazaar, to the palace at the Kum poo. The cavalry, battalions, and artillery, posted in separate squadrons, and parties from tbe palace at the Kumpoo to tbe new bazaar, performed the ceremony of salute. "A court in the palace at tbe CumDoo, which for the clear resplendence ot Its floor and tuo brilliancy ol Its furniture might bo comoired with the ninth heaven, and which was brighter than noonday, fiom the number of chandeliers aud lustres, was transformed into tbe ball-room of indur by dancing and music, and every one was immersed in jollity an 1 delisbt. On the west side of the court a terrace, witb gorgeous embellishments, had been erecicd for the Tba koorjee (mcarna ion of Vislinoo the preserver), and was surrounded with chandeiieis and lus tres. In front of thii terrace, on one side, a magnificent cushion hud been fitted up tor the Maharajah, and a seat for ihe bridegroom ou the other. "Meanwhile the triumphal procession of her most serene highness the Maharanee Chunna Kaja(on elephants) passed through the Surraf i, and reached the parade gronud at the Kumpoo. After receiving a similar salute from the cav alry, battalions, and artillery, her highness honored with her presence another grand court of the palace, wblch had been most ele gantly furnished with the best furniture. Tbe courtiers paid their respects, and dancing and music continued. In the other courts costly dresses and ornaments ot immense value were presented to his most puissant and fortunate highness tbe Maharajah, the bridegroom, and to Bulwunt Kao Khva Sahib, on the part of the father of the bride. The ceremony of 'poola' then commenced, and a ealute was tired when it was over. Utter and pan were then distributed among those present. "Tbe bridegroom then left the palace at the Enmpoo on "an elephant, followed by other elephants with the above-mentioned nobles In a semi-circle. A salute was instantly tired, and fireworks were let off with great noise and velocity. The artiflcial trees on the pasteboard ? gardens looked blooming with blossoms, and oaded with different kinds of fruit.
