IhC Freich Tress on Urncral GrantM In.ngnral. From the If. T. Herald. In diacnesiDg the national debt and oar taeans and resources for its payment, and In reminding the yonng man of the coantry or the importance of maintaining the iaionaI honor intact, General (Irant In hifl Inaugural Cajg: "A momHnt'i reflation upon what Vill be our commanding influence among the nations of the earth in tbnirday" (theday of cur young men) "should inspire them with national pride." The French press has seized Upon this hint of "our commanding influence among the nations" as a figure of speeoh sig nifying war. The DMats sees in it "the germ Cf many future wars." The Jloniteur is fear ful that "the future preponderance of which General Grant speaks may be big with Btorms." The rublic thinks that "apart from the pretensions about preponderance" the in augural is harmless. These French journals are barking up the wrong tree. They trans late "oommauding influence" as "prepon derating Influence," in the European sense, and as involving the European balanoe of power. General Grant speaks of the glory of paying off, fairly and fully, every dollar of our national debt in his reference to our ''commanding influence among the nations," and in uttering the words was not dreaming of a war with France. Napoleon made it all Tight with us in backing out of Mexico; but If there is a hint in the inaugural touching British neutrality, which may possibly mean gunpowder, that is all. Johnson. 'From the If. T. Tribune. Last Thursday, at Lynchburg, Mr. Johnson observed, "In rising at this time to acknow ledge the honor paid me, it is not for the pur- Eose of making a speech." The next day, at reenville, Mr. Johnson observed, "In rising fit this time to acknowledge the honor paid jne, it is not for the purpose of making & Speech." In each plaoe he likewise observed that since the 4th of March he was no longer n slave but a freeman; and in each it was no ticed that he didn't seem at all glad of it. He farther observed at Lynohburg, and likewise at Greenville, that Congress was a body of usurpers; that he had been battling for the Constitution; that the-people would soon rouse from their apathy and vindicate their vio lated rights; and that he should cherish the memory of this welcome so long as his heart continued to beat. And with this con clusion our hero of the cirole sinks into his own plaoe. We are free to say that we are disappointed. We expected to hear of the flag with thirty-six stars. Does Mr. John Bon mean to "go back on" the flag? We made sure of another discourse on Judas Isoa Tiot has Mr. Johnson lost his old-time regard for that eminent independent Christiau ? We even trusted that with the freedom from the Sense of offioial responsibility might come a burst of the old virtue that proclaimed treason a crime and promised to hang traitors fcy the score. We are afraid we muBt give up Mr. Johnson. He has not fulfilled the pro mise of that golden prime when he swung around the circle and fought traitors at the other end of the line. Henoe forth we shall have to depend upon Mr. Jewett alone. The Postal Telegraph. from the N. Y. Herald. The signs are clear and positive that the IOBtal telegraph is a coming thing. Senator lamsey, of Minnesota, has introduced a bill in Congress "to establish a postal telegraph system and to incorporate the United States foBtal Telegraph Company," whioh has been lead twioe and referred to the Committee on Tost Offices and Post Roads. Its plan is a great advanoe on the proposition presented at the last session of Congress, and shows how muoh the question has grown with Mr. Hubbard and his coadjutors. Bat it contains the germ of an immense evil, whioh we hope the gentlemen interested in the promotion of the plan will consent to modify in behalf of their own interests, those of the Government, and the preponderating interests of the public England has preceded us in this movement, and has contracted to purchase all the tele graph lines In Great Britain and make them adjuncts of its postal system. But it has now Leen discovered that the railway and telegraph companies there have contrived to oonvert this wise measure into an immense job, and to saddle the Government with obligations to pay for the existing telegraph lines a sum far be yond their real value and what it would have cost to build new ones. It is against the per petration of a similar evil in this country that we demand precaution Bhall be taken by the Senate Committee on Post Offices; and we shall point out, before we close this artiole, how the interests of the people and the Govern ment oan best be protected in this matter. But before taking up that point we will look at the bill as it now stands. To do this we must reverse the order of the till, as in it the cart has been skilfully placed before the horse, for evident purposes. It is proposed to incorporate Gardner G. Hubbard and his associates by the name of the United Btates Postal Telegraph Company, with a capital of four hundred thousand dollars. This capital seems ridiculously small for the Ereat purpose which it is proposed to aohieve; ut we will refer to this again. This oom' pany, itls proposed, will build its lines be tween Washington, Naw York, Boston, and Chicago within six mouths; to Cincinnati 8t Louis, and New Orleans within two years;' and to every other oily of C re thousand or more in habitants within three yeais from the execu tion of the contraot. The postal telegraph Offioes are to be in connection with tha post Office in every city, at railroad stations, and at such other places as the business of the coun try may demand. Messages are to be reoelved at every postal telegraph omoe, post office, sub Office, and select letter box, prepaid by stamps. and to be delivered free within the limits of free delivery of letters from any post offioe, or Within one mile of every postal telegraph office, and to be transmitted by mail to or from the nearest postal telegraph offlja when received at or destined for any place not Lav- - iK a xi . ing suou viuwp nuu yopii woudj orders may he remitted by telegraph. The rate of toll for this service to be one cent a word for eaou five hundred miles or less, and the miaimum message to be twenty words. The advantages of this system to commeros and ta every private interest in the country are obvious. It win quicken trade to an lm mense degree, while in a proportionate measure it will diminish the capital requisite to transact the exchange of commodities, by Anablinar every dollar to do Its work in muoh less time than Is now required. The disad vantage! contained in the bill are pertinent mi tn tha manner of establishing this im mense reform, and sot to its plan for the postal telecraiih avstem. It lfl vroposed that this thafi be dose by authorising the Postmaster Oeneral to oontraot for the transmission of the messages with any telegraph company or gomptules now or that nay hereafter li laoor- rorated. Herein lies the same Job that has fastened upon the British Government a great debt for an incomplete and vicious system cf telegraphs, constructed by private companies, and which it - Is found necessary in a great reconstruct. If the exietiog lines, or those to be constructed by any private oompany, re equal to the work that h to be required of them, we have no objection to their being purchased at a fair price; but we do insist that the country shall not be culled upon to pay forty millions of dollars for a set of old and much worn lines, when better ones, oover iDg the same exteDt of territory, can he con structed for ten millions of dollars. And it is in view of this fact that we referred to the small proposed capital of the new company four hundred thousand dol lars. There is a further proposition in the bill before us, to the e fleet that the company may from time to time in crease its capital stock to an extent not exceeding two hundred dollars for eaou mile of wire owned and operated by it. We do not hesitate to characterize this proposition as an immense swindle. An excellent and substan tial two wire telegraph line can be constructed at a cost not to exceed one hundred ani fifty dollars per mile, with stations furnished and complete at every twenty-five miles; and the Bame posts and construction will carry eight wires, if necessary for the business. These extra wires can be put np at a oost not exceed ing thirty dollars per mile; and why the com pany should be allowed to increase its capital Btock two hundred dollars for every thirty dollars expended is not clear to the mind of any honest man. We accept the plan of a postal telegraph aa proposed in this bill, and will now point out the amendments which we call upon the Senate Committee on Post Offices to make to it before pntting it upon its passage. Drop the words Washington and New York in the twenty-first line of section three, and add to the bill the proposition made by Mr. Wash burne last session for the appropriation of sixty thousand dollars for the construction of an experimental postal telegraph between Washington and New York, and direct the Postmaster-General to advertise immediately for the construction of said line in the best manner known to telegraphic science anil skill. The oountry will then have a praotioal test of the cost of telegraph construction, whioh will serve as a type lor the purchase of old exist ing lines, or the oonstrucliou of new and im proved ones; and we shall be saved from com mitting the great blunder England has just committed, and while securing the new sys tem will avoid incurring an immense and needless debt. Our Differences with England Settle ment of the. Alabama Claims. From the AT. T. Times. It is quite clear that the Alabama treaty, conoluded by Mr. Keverdy Jouhaon with the English Government, will be rejected by the Senate; and that rejection will be approved by public sentiment. A great many motives combine to produce this result. A large and influential part of the Senate is opposed to ratifying the treaty, because doing so would give a triumph to Andrew Johson's adminis tration and to Mr. Seward. Others object to speclfio provisions of the treaty; and others Btill maintain that the wroDga of which we complain are not such as can be rediessed by payment of the peonniary damages which we have BUBtained. This may be true. We are Inclined to think it Is. But it is by no means easy to see how, upon this theory, those wrongs can be re dressed, or in what way any adjustment of difficulties can possibly be reached. We insist that the conduct of England in conceding belligerent rights to the Confede rates, in acknowledging their flag on the high seas before they had achieved their inde pendence as a nation, in creating for them a navy when they had not a naval port on the face of the earth, in building, arming, and manning for them Bhips-of-war and Bending them out in their servioe to prey upon our commeroe, was what gave to the Rebellion the enormous proportions it finally assumed, prolonged the war at least one or two years, added enormously to its ooBt in life and in money, and was in gross violationf of the laws of neutrality, and open disregard of the obligations of friendship which England had assumed by treaties with the United States. Such acts are not atoned for such wrongs are not redressed by paying for the commerce they destroyed, or the losses they canted. Admit this to be true; the question still secure how are they to be redressed? In what form can the English offer satisfaction, or in what form can we demand it ? Mr. Johnson's "administration strove very hard to bring about a settlement of this question. Mr. Seward spent four laborious years, first in trying to prevent England from doing us the damage she did, and then in trying te convince her that we were entitled to some signal redress, which he put in the form of payment of losses sustained. And England has finally been brought to take the initial step towards a settlement of the question on this basis. Now the mere rejeotion of this basis does not establish any other. The question will still remain, and none of its difficulties will be removed. General Grant's administration will sucoeed to all the embarrassments in dealing with it which Mr. Johnson's encoun tered, with some very formidable ones freshly added, by the contemptuous repudiation which everything thus far done is likely to receive. What demands will General Grant make upon England, in Batisfaotion of our complaints f The London 'J imes, in an article which we reoently copied, oontends that nothing less than the concession by England an (meiiif, or an Insurrection of which England had no right to know anything whatever, will Bausiy tte LnlUd states. This, though eiaiea in extravagant terms, is not as wide of the truth as the 'limes afl'eota to believe. Throughout the whole diplomatio controversy Mr. Seward insisted that the con flict in the United states was not war in any sense Known to publio law, or in any such sense as authorized tha applicable to war between sovereign and inde pendent powers, lie insisted that in the eye Cf tin Vvll lain W i . . . rv Mw aw noo menjiy au lnaarreotkna, v. . T J uuol parties had ever obtained recognition as an independent nation or had ever established a claim to such recog nition and until suoh claim should be esta blished he demanded that England should remain faithful to the treaty obligations into which she had entered with the United States and abstain from aiding in any way, or to any extent, those who were striving to overthrow their authority and destroy their national existence. We still Insist that this position was right and that England ought to have aoted upon it. Her wrong to us lay in the faot that she did not do so. Virtually and praotlcally she joined our enemies In making war upon us not bo fully nor bo openly as she mieht bat unjr ciwuju vu uu u ouvruious aamage, and as openly as she dared. General Grant will probably feel . that England owes ua an ac knowledgment, that she was wrong in treat ing the Rebellion as a war, and the Confede racy as a sovereign nation, capable of making war, and he may demand that she shall make this acknowledgment as preliminary to p.viug whatever damages an impartial commission may decide that her action inflicted upon us. This, though not expressed in exactly the same terms, Is probably in substauoe what tha London 7 imes means by the oonoession that mere was no war, as the only couoession which will satisfy the United States. And it hup, as tun j. mtix says It 14, tint "no British statesman will ever so stultify and dipgraoe himself, or will ever be such a hypo crite, as to make a publio confession" of this sort. Suppose this is so: what can harden then 1 It Is not easy to say what can happen, or wuai may nappen. uotu parties may beoome so exasperated over the matter as to go to war about it though Mr. lieverdy Johnson Is certainly right in saying that it is impos sible to conceive greater insanity thau this would imply. But the worst thine that is likely to happen is that our differences with England on this subjeot will remain unsettled for a cood many vears to coma. Anil wa are bound to add that in our opinion the Ameri can people win be better satisfied, on the whole, with this result than with any other. There are too many elements aud motives of hostility to make a peaoeful and harmonious adjustment of our dif ferences with England universally accept able in this country. The Irish element alone is, in numbers, in social weight, in reli gious sentiment, and especially in political im portance, too considerable a power to allow full acquiescence in suoh a settlement. It is a comfort and a consolation to a very large portion of our people to reflect that we have grounds of complaint outstanding azaiast England upon which we can go t war with her, and conquer Canada, to say nothing of Ireland, whenever we "feel so disposed." Not that we have any immediate purpose of doing it, or intend to tlx a date when we will do it; but we don't want to feel absolutely precluded from doing it, with a show of reasons wherever we may be in the mood. Another point in the case our people do not forget. England, in the acts by which she wronged and damaged us, introduced new rights and rules for neutral nations, of which we may avail ourselves hereafter whenever we choose. The right whioh England exercised. and whioh she yet defends, of furnishing a navy with munitions of war and ports of re fuge to the privateers she herself builds for communities in rebellion, but without any of these things, remains open to us; and our people are by no means blind to the emergen cies which may open the way for us to retort its exercise. And this is among the considera tions which will incline them to be quite con tent even if our Alabama differenced with England are not at once adjusted. Kacc " Prom the N. Y. World. "Race" that accursed mistake of the Al niichty pokes np its heal in a atrauge plaoe. It will not be legislated down There is a general order just out in Washington whioh sends the troops now on duty in Florida to Nebraska; and those in pleasaut Louisiana, two thousand miles away to the great north lakes; and those iu lexas go, some to Kansas and pome to Virginia; and those in Virginia to Mississippi and to California; and from California a recimeut goes to Kentucky ; and from Kentucky another to Georgia; and from DakotaU Still another to Ueorcia; and still another from Louisiana to Minnesota; and from Minnesota one to lexas; and so on, and so on. and so on. Now, why all this? Wherefore is the whole United State army thus sent trapezing sll over the country from one extreme end of it to the other? What is the reason of this great expense to transport so many thousand men so far. and wnereiore is n mat, at me on oomlnsr of a Southern summer, aocliinated troops are withdrawn from its influences and unaoolimated sent in tneir stead r We will tell you. It is because the army will not do the dirty work of reconstruction bo Boon as it Bees how very dirty that work is There is no disobedience, no revolt, no mutiny; but they see and feel that they are white men, nut there to exalt the negro above other white men. and they cannot be relied on to do it. Here and there some officer who disgraces an honorable calling enters into this filthy busi ness con amore, but, for the great part, there is a mere stiff compliance with the exact letter of the order, and no more. Wher ever possible, commanding officers will neither ge themselves nor send their subordi nate oftioers (in this distasteful service often their only companions and always their onlv friends) on those disgusting in quiBitorial parties so frequently demanded by the ion reoonstruoting vagaoonas, wno keen everything about them in a turmoil. The colonel won't go, and the major says it's the captain's time, and the captain thinks the lieutenant ought to go, and the lieutenant swears it's hard they can't sena a ser geant and a file of men along with the dirty beast, and so it comes down to a corporal and three or four privates at last. Now, it has been discovered by these latter that it is in finitely more pleasing to eat a good dinner at accused's house and top off with free whisky than to take the man to the guard-house, and if the loil vaeabond complains at this derello ticn, he is apt to get a Bound beating the next time he comes aooui ueaaquaners. The nioture is a little highly colored, bat the main tints are true. After so long a time the irmr sees the nastinees of kicking a mau when he is down for that, when you rub the fine words off it, is about what this thing and when it sees it. the only thing to do is to give it the route and bring a fresh force in. llenoe all this marching and counter-march lug, and Bkurrying this regiment off to Dacotab, and t'other one back to Texas.
