Ci-LibaT "PV of Europe are, of
.n,irtM, exultant over the end of the Geneva
Congress. Thev had looked upon the
reparation (or It with some uneaa.nosa, and
fhe official paper had ominouH 1 threatened
intervention In case the Government of

T7V?n1? Start Tli8CU8ion. Their nn
PPHat fad ncreaaed when they learned of
Taeln Aeoeption of Oiribaldi, whioh, they
MCrreceptfon, which have ever been
dnriDK the present century, given to any of
the UviDK monarch-. They could not deny
that Garibaldi wielded an immense power;
that the party wbioli works in Europe for the
totrodaotion of Liberal institutions is by no
means a contemptible foe, and that its labors
well deserve their utmost watchfulness. They
were therefore most agreeably surprised when
u Waa announced that the proceedings of the
Congress had suddenly been brought to an
inharmonious and, therefore, unsatisfactory
There was sadness, on the other hand, in all
those who had built on the Congress great
hopes for a rigorous reorganization of the
European party of progress. The very idea
of the Congress was an important step
towards the establishment of a oomnron creed.
The weakness of the progressive party of Imi
Tortehas, to a large extent, proceeded from
their isolation. Because they were isoiatea,
they were unacquainted with each others
tendencies; they misunderstood each other,
and frequently fell a prey to the Machiavel
lian statesmen, who were only too glad to
divert attention from domestio oppression by
wilfully conjuring up foreign troubles. It was
creat and fruitful idea to remove these
causes of the weakness of the party by an
International Congress, to hear the views of
the representatives of the several nations,
and undertake to build up a platform upon
which all may stand.
The Congress most appropriately called
Itself a Peace Congress. Those papers which
have tried to ridicule the participation of men
like Garibaldi in a peace Congress, only show
lite uariDaun m a peaoc w b ,

men who were present m ?n"v" 7,"Va
furor of forsweariuz all conflicts of one na- ,
tion with others. Every nation, tney are
agreed, should confine itself to securing self
government. That point being reached,
it should live at peace with all its neighbors.
There is no reason for discouragement if the
first of the International Peace Congresses has
not been a complete success. No great move
ment has from the start overcome all difficul
ties. But a good beginning has been made,
which, we doubt not, will be followed up. A
large number of distinguished men of vari
ous countries were present and took a part
in the proceedings; others, like Louis Blano
and Jules Favre, expressed by letter a hearty
sympathy. A place of meeting has already
leen appointed for next year, when, we doubt
not, the lessons of the present year will be
turned to advantage.
v Mexico and the Presidential Contest.
From the JV". Y. Berald.
Our news from Mexico indicates consider
able excitement over the coming Presidential
election. As yet there is no one pledged to
the field as a candidate in opposition to Benito
Juarez. There is, however, some indication
that Porfirio Diaz may enter the lists. A con
siderable party at the Mexican capital are
desirous of pushing him forward as their
leader. Still, there are some very strong rea
sons why General Diaz prefers, for the pre
sent, to remain in the background. A fellow
townsman of the President, he is indebted to
Juarez for education, military advancement,
and all his honors. His esteem for the man to
whom he owes so much is very great, and it is,
therefore, not improbable that Diaz may firmly
refuse the nomination. .There are, however,
weightier reasons than these for his refusal,
and these exist partly in the army. Diaz
could not control any but the troops who
Served under him, and these do not number
ten thousand men. The armies of Eegules,
Corona, and Escobedo will all vote for Juarez,
while the . States generally will support the
latter. The capital of the country may have a
hundred rumors with reference to the Presi
dential contest, but it will be found that the
populous districts far removed from the city
of Mexico, will give an almost unanimous vote
for the Present innnmliunt. of thn KirenutirA
chair. All the Northern States are in favor of
Juarez, while in the South the vote botweeu
him and Diaz would scarcely be divided.
There is a marked tone of conciliation iu the
late action of the Mexican Government towards
those who have heretofore been under the
Liberal ban for aiding the empire. The aot of
confiscation, which made such a clean sweep
Of the perty of Mexican Imperialists, has
been revoked, and the property will, with rare
exceptions, be restored. This is a very wise
measure; for this was the only source from
Which the Mexican Government had any fear
Of a strongly organized revolutionary ruove-
ment. By restoring the vast estates to their
former owners, a formidable element has been
quieted and bound to the interests of peace
' and order.
The Government now proposes to give the
. olergy the vote and make them eligible to the
ofiioe of representative to Congress. . This
movement is of doubtful value at this time for
1 the great Liberal leader. Mexioo, profoundly
1 stirred to civil hatreds by the exhaustive wars
she has waged against the clergy, feels little
. disposed to grant them any rights while the
' spirit of revenge is at such a red heat. The
j measure, conciliatory and just, is a good one;
but it is premature. It will, however, give
' Juarez the support of the conservative and
. wealthy element of the country; but it may
, lose him much of the aid whioh he otherwise
might have oountedupon in the Liberal party.
' Another good measure which it is proposed to
adopt is the closer assimilation of the Mexican
' constitution to our own. It is hoped thereby
: to give a better system of checks and balances
to the different branches of the Government.
There is muoh work before the Mexican
Statesmen. They have before them many
problems whioh demand prompt and masterly
settlement. Among these the first is the tiuan
' cial question. With a country unsurpassed In
'' the ability to restore her credit to a sound
. basis, the only trouuie relative 10 mat matter
is how to exist until the machinery can be
1 repaired and set in motion. Then must be
settled the question of feudalism, whioh has a
marked hold in every Mexican State. The
great haciendas, often oooupying from twenty
"" to thiity thousand square miles, must be cut
down.. Land must be more equally divided.
Taxation of real estate will do this, llereto-

fore the great estates have never been taxed.
Another and all Important thing for Mexico, If
she would live as a separate nationality, is to
strike out the word "to morrow" from her
dictionary. The olergy have almost ru nad
Spanish America, but "to-morrow" weigh?
upon the land with a ("till heavier curse. VVe
watch Mexico with intense interest, for she
has at length finished her religious wars. It
now r'inaius to be seen how wisely she will
make tine of her victory. Her Presidential
election is the first step to a glorious future,
providing it will be taken. Fortunately, there
1b a chance that there will no candidate iu the
field against Juarez. Should Diaa determine
to lot his name be used, it might result iu an
exciting election, but still his defeat would be
almost certain. Juarez holds one great advan
tagehe is an Indian, and much beloved by
his race, which comprises seven-eighths of
the population of Mexico.
MaklnR mistakes.
IVom the JV. Y. Tribune. 1
Blunders, in public affairs, are usually fatal
to the prospects of those who fall into them.
We have never perused anything of the kind
more pathetic than the letter from Herschol
V. Johnson to a Northern friend, which we
recently printed. We refer to it now because
such reference is seasonable; because from the
President down to the puniest puppet who
lisps the Btale formulas of a shallow conser-
vatism, there are men who are making the
Georgian's blunder without his eacuse. lie .
engaged in the Rebellion against the feelings j
of his heart, the promptings of hla conscience, ,
and the conclusions of liis understanding; he t
walked to certain and foreseen ruin, as he
admits, because he thought himself bound to !
follow the people of his State even in a career j
of crime; and tne result nas Deen nis pouuem ;
and material ruin. "I find myself," says he, :
'disfranchised and assigned to a position, in
respect to political and social rights, inferior
to that of my former slaves." He had "never
cherished an emotion of hostility 10 the Con
stitution or the Union;" he "had spent half
a century in endeavoring to uphold them;"
and yet this old man Buffered himself to be
talked, and persuaded, and bullied, and
coaxed into the notion that because his fellow-citizens
in considerable numbers had
betaken themselves to treason it was his
duty to turn traitor with them. It was a
chivalrous error, and grievously has Gover
nor Johnson answered it; but he has still the
consolation of knowing that he was swayed
l - 1... inni
vv no unclean venality, and that he did not
htaJSUau, (o the conspiracy for the
, sake of personal aggrandizement. Prom the
I " r..n ....... n.l,n tl.lTA
lUtte mm of Northern apostates, who have
""W gaug oi " y
little gang oi nonueru apuiuupa, nuu u
hnrtnred honor for nla e, and who have seen
in the preservation of the Government only
the continuation of its patronage, we can turn
to the example of Governor Johnson, and find
a kind of relief even in the contemplation of
his error. He at least did not sell himself in
the market. He at least acted under a nobler
stimulus than that of greed. He frankly ac
cepted revolution; but he did not put on the
mincing airs of an artificial conservatism.
He groans with reason over the establish
ment of manhood suffra.e; but what
cause of distress have New York men we do
not care whether they call themselves Repub
licans or Democrats at that natural, inevita
ble consummation f If Rebels, with the smell
of battle still upon their garments, please to
side with the President in his usurpations, and ;
his proscriptions, and his fawning upon Rebel !
remnants, there is no cause of wonder; but
why should those who prologs to be still loyal
bow down and kiss his feet f If the President
hates the Republican party, why should those
who have called themselves by our name and
claimed with us fraternity, desert us at the
very moment of our mortifying affliction?
There can be no auswer to theie questions
honorable to those concerning whom they are
propounded. Mr. Johnson is taken up or
abandoned as suits their convenience. Their
side of the fence is that side upon whioh the
crops look the most promising. Their con
servatism means cash. Their principles have
all a pecuniary squint.
We know what we mean when we write
ourselves radicals, and we are quite prepared
to take the consequences of doing so. Men
who call themselves conservatives should be
ready to tell us what they desire to conserve.
Is it the old Democratic party with which they
were so scandalously ready to strike hatids ?
That we understand. Is it the tendency of the
publio money to their own private pockets?
We comprehend even that. Is it the manage
ment of a great party by a handful of men
who expect to be roundly paid for their affec
tionate care! Even this is not inscrutable.
Is it the foregiveness of Binners before
they have repented ? Is it the embracing and
lusting and crying of the Philadelphia
Convention ? Is it making private bargains
with our bitterest opponents for personal
urposes r bucu conservatism, we confess,
s a little too delicate and metaphysical
lor us, and it may prove in the end a
trille too potent even for its professors. The
people of this State are not in a humor to be
played with for the satisfaction of any man's
greed; and leaders who are missing when
they are most wanted may do very well as
conser vatives, but mutt not expect to be
rated as Kepubliuaus. Thus tar they have
done nothing except make blunders. The
Philadelphia Convention was a blunder of
more than Hibernian proportions. The timid
support given to the President wa3 another.
The league in this State with the Copperheads
was a third, the pretense of being this year
Republicans, eveu conservative Republicans,
is a fourth. At this rate the time for weeping
and wailing and gnashing of teeth cannot bo
far distant. Let it come 1
General Hancock on the Ilecouatruc
tiuu tiaVa
from the N. Y. Times.
Our Washington correspondent's report of
an interview with General Hancock fully con
firms the impression produced by that gallant
soldier's speech to the crowd that serenaded
him. All fear as to his administration of
affairs in Louisiana and Texas vanished when
he proclaimed his purpose to enforce the law
in the spirit in which it was enacted. Prom
that moment it became evident that the ene
mies of reconstruction would derive no suo
cor from any action of his, and that the pre
liminary measures of General Sheridan would
be allowed to proceed without hindrauce or
essential alteratlou.
In his talk with our correspondent, General
Hancock reveals yet more freely his determi
nation to disregard
administration of the law to any forced inter
pretation of its meaning, or to any end at
variance with his Uoa of duty. He promises
J.fl?,!.6 fttlrly Rnv euggestion that may be
i w L hl "military superiors," provided
l, 1 ,,rnTLWever' I'Ittuea tu responsibility of
Kt oX to t?8 Upou Lia -boulder,- sub
rll Gut audTiT180' fthority fUeue
J An it w'llM il ll1ar tbat a soldier's sense
of duty will load Um to pay slight attention to
the opinloufl of Mr. IHncklny. Oen-ral Han-
cotk'B military-career seemed from the first to
constitute a guarantee Pgaiost enbservieucy to
the views promulgated by the President. It
was not probable that his tried And Btrling
loyalty would admit of tampering with the
law in the interest of disloyal fnotions. But
it is. nevertheless natisl'aetory to have these
repeated and explicit assurances from his own
lips of his resolve to carry ont the law in its
Spirit, as opposed to the far-fet'.hed rendering
j of its letter which forms the distinguishing
: fentuie of Mr. Johnson's programme.
But General Hancock goes still further. He
does more than declare his adherence to the
spirit of the law. He vindicates the law itself
as neither vindictive nor tyrannical. "The
Btiict performance of a soldier's duty," he
well remarks, "may be construed by those
whom it affects as oppressive; but a quiet sub
I mission to the execution of the acts of Con
i gress in spirit and letter will obviate all ap
, pearance of either oppression or tyraunv."
The case could not be more neatly stated. The
law wears the aspect of oppression only to
those who are opposed to its objects, and
would frustrate its operation. There is not a
statute in existence which is not deemed
tyrannical by its habitual violators, and the
Reconstruction law is not likely to be an ex
ception. The penalties it prescribes are cer
tainly not veiy despotic in their nature. Dis
abilities that are limited to exclusion from
, office and jjlrom voting are the mildest form
' which punishment for rebellion could assume.
These are oppressive solely in the sense that
attaches to all penalties for offenses defined
by law.
' The parts of the reconstruction scheme
which most excite oi position are those which
1 confer political equality upon the blacks; but
surely the enlrauchisement of the race whom
the war bos made free is not oppression to any
other class. Hence the appositeness of Gene
ral Hancock's saying: "As to the legitimate
execution of the law ever becoming oppressive
or tyrannical, that depends much upon whether
it meets with resistance, either passive or
open." The communities which accept the
plan of Congress in good faith, comply with
us requirements, ana leave otner considera
tiens to be determined after the South shall
have been fully restored to the Uidon, will
have no need to complain of cruelty or oppres
sion, ihelawmayoe m some respects nn
palatable to them as to others, but it caunot
be properly branded as oppression, nor
can the military government, which is
one of its preliminary incidents, be
justly stigmatized as tyrannical. Not so
however, with the antagonists of the law.
Whither they work covertly or openly,
they may be expected to demur to the
nature of a system which compels them to
obey the law and to abide by its results. In
their eyes the suppression of the Rebellion by
Federal power was gross usurpation ond
despotibm. It is natural for them to object
to the just and logical sequences of Union vic
tory as in the highest degree despotic. But
the circumstance is not calculated to shake
the confidence of the country in the equity
and windom of the conditions laid down by
Congress. The law was enacted in the.inte
rest of the Union not to gratify the wishes of
Rebels; - and an opposition which aims at the
abatement of Union demands for the conve
nience and gratification of those who regard
the Union itself as the embodiment of oppres
sion, is not entitled to very scrupulons atten
tion. In General Hancock's estimation, "the
lost cause" is not the cause to which the
commanders of the military districts should
pay particular deference. His explicit utter
ances on the subject dispel the last of the de
lusions to which the President's recent pro
ceedings nave given m rtn.
The Indian Bother,
From the N. Y. World.
The council held on the 19th iustaut at
North Tlatte, between the United States Com
missioners and certain Indian chiefs, was im
portant, although it did not result in a defi
nite treaty. The hostile tribes responsible for
the current troubles are the Sioux bands of
the North, and the Cheyennes, Kiowas, and
Comanches of the South. The former roam
alone and above the valley of the North
(7
Platte; the latter along and below the valley
of the Arkansas. But all these tribes, whose
hunting grounds join and intersect each other
in the country between the two rivers men
tioned, make common cause for war of the
encroachments of white travel along the staje,
wagon, and advancing Pacific Railroad routes
between. The Sioux, besides, are irritated
nrainst the wacon route opened through the
! iwrlr i-iver country from Port Laramie to
the gold region of Montana, which country
they have long occupied, and to which they
have an undoubted title. This explanation
will enable those who take the trouble to
glance at a map to understand the gist of the
difficulty.
At the recent council, Generals Sherman
and Harney, Commissioner Taylor, Senator
Henderson, and most of the other Commission
ois were present. Soma of the most noted
chiefs of the Sioux and Cheyenne tiibcS ap
peared, stated their grievances, and male
their demands. The latier were, that the
Powder river road, the Smoky Hill liailway
route which runs along the valley of the
Smoky Hill fork of the AikKnsas river and
the building ol the Southern Pacifio Railroad
altogether, should be abandoned. The noise
of the locomotive, said Spotted Tail and other
spokesmen, drove away their game. I'J'6
piepctce of soldiers provoked war. "Take
away your blue-coats abd your whistling en
gines, and then come unarmed, and travel
peaceably among us, and have your throats
cut in the pood old -t'aliionei way !" was in
effect the uliitnuhtm of these wily warriors.
"And for the present, as some sort of security
for buch a future state, give us plenty of
presents, ammunition and muis."
In response to which modest suggestions
General Sherman is reported to have said: ,

Lancuaee like this, addressed to intellijrent
beings, would have been very instructive and
convincing. But it greatly disgusted the
ravages who listened to it, and caused luricny
l oot, a Southern Cheyenne, and one of the
most malignant of chiefs, to quit the eounoil
in a huff. The anger of the rest of the red
men was masked. "We thought," said Swift
Pear, a Siour, "that you would give us a little
ammunition to get our living with anil make
our hearts glad. Take pity on us this day."
t.ereurion the Commissioners, taking coun
sel, concluded to issue a limited sun-oly of
powder to the Indians along with the other
niebents nrovided. and to hope, in the mean
time, that the tribes bo favored would keep the
t eace until the next council in novemoer.
The nlan which the Commissioners have re-
Kiilvnd noon thus aooears to be to put the
hostile Indians aside, northward and south
ward, from the great railroad and wagon
ronton of travel eatdward and westward be
twixt the Platte and Arkansas rivers; and to
disTiose of the northern Sioux so close to the
Missouri as that the road from Fort
Laramie to the Montana mining districts above
ruav be left onen. It is very doubtful whether
treaties to this effect can be peaceably and
eecnrelv perfected. The Government has
waited too lone. Our troops on the plains
during the past year have been too few, and
have been too often evaded or beaten. The
eavaces particularly the vengeful Sioux
have thriven unlawfully and well upon the
spoil of emigrant and Government trains, over
land states, and settlers' homes, ineynave
been sullered to undervalue the might of the
Great Father at Washington. Out of his
plenty in charge of his commissioners, they
will probably cajole what they can at the forth
coming councils, and then they will begin
their devil's work anew. Our true policy
was, years ago, to win them to our fold. We
have continually thrust and still aim to thrust
them out of it therefore they continue to be
preying border wolve3.
