THE NEW ALLIANCE.
The Atlantic cable this morning brings us
the important intelligence that the confer
ence whieh has been held •at Salzburg be
tween the Emperors Napoleon and Francis
Joseph has resulted in a defensive alliance
between France and Austria, and in a deter
n3ination that the South German States shall
unite in a confederation of which Austria
8131411 e the head. This , result was not en
tirely unanticipated. To be sure, it was an
nounced that Napoleon's simple purpose in
visiting Austria was to condole with the Em
peror for the loss of his brother, and to re
lieve himself of any responsibility that might
attach to him for his part in the Mexi
can tragedy. But the French and Prus
sian journals have more than hinted
that the real object of the visit
was to effect this very alliance.
The feeling of jealousy, distrust and hatred
between Prussia and France is se intense that
an outbreak is likely to occur upon very
slight provocation, and France, in looking
about for an ally upon whom to depend for
assistance in case of war, naturally selected
Prussia's old antagonist, humiliOed and de
feated Austria. These two powers have much
in common; both despotisms, and di
rectly interested in weakening the power of
liberal Prussia. Both are Catholic monarchies
and in that respect in antagonism to Pro
testant Prussia. Both are neighbors of the
mighty northern empire, and likely to be in
jured by the grasping ambition of the insa
tiable Bismarck. It is not creditable to Na
poleon't3 perspicuity and foresight, that he did
not perceive the necessity •for this alliance be
fore Austria entered that contest which
stripped her*of her prestige, her standing
as a first-class power, and of some of her
ricbest provinces. With the aid of France
niigtit thenliave frustrated the ambitious
aesigns of Prussia, and have prevented the
formation of that mighty confederation which
now menaces both powers. But regrets are
unavailing, and Napoleon is inclined to do
the very best thing possible under the circum
stances. The absorption of the South German
States into a confederation, with Austria at
its head, would certainly raise up a dangerous
risal to the Northern confederation, and erect
a formidable barrier to further aggressions on
the part of Prussia. France and Austria
could both afford then to assume a more arro
gant bearing towards Prussia, and Napoleon
might re-open the Luxembourg question,
and pursue his favorite theory in regard to
the Rhine boundary, with reasonable tope of
success.
The only question likely to arise is, will the
South German States accept the offer of
Austria and agree to form a confederation?
It is at least doubtful. Although the
_antago
,,nism between the Northern and Southern
German States, owing to marked national and
individual peculiarities, is very deep-rooted,
and would seem likely to render the proposed
confederation popular in the South, there
has always been, even in Southern Germany,
a great dislike of France. While therefore
these Southern States would perhaps ally
themselves with Austria under ordinary
circumstances, the popular repugnance to
that French nation which they have regarded
as the enemy of German nationality, would
perhaps in case of war, drive them to seek
alliance with Prussia rather than Austria.
This is the greatest difficulty to be
overcome in consummating the designs of
Napoleon and Francis Joseph. Whether it
- will be successfully met, remains to be seen.
In the meantime, hoivever, an alliance be
tween Prussia and Russia is hinted at, and
this gives the subject a newer and more com-
plicated aspect. The Cable despatchef"this
morning state that "an ittreement has been
arrived at between the Emperors of Austria
and France as to the policy hereafter to be
pursued on the Eastern question." The al
liance between Russia and prilssia probably
will have reference to the same subject. It
may be that Prussia promises to assist the
Russian Emperor in consummating his de
signs upon Turkey if he will help to crush
the Austrian alliance. In that case Prussia
may be regarded as a second time the victor.
These two great powers. will prove more than
a match for Austria and France, and will
probably be able, to
determine
into effect any
scheme that they may determine upon. The
situation is intensely interesting, and we
anxiously await further developments.
SAFE AT LAST.
The country is, at last, safely out of all its
troubles. Statesmen, financiers, politicians
and social economists, have been hard at
work' over the tough problems which have
groWn out cf the war, and have only arrived
at partial, and, in some respects, unsatis
factory conclusions. But all doubts and diffi
culties have vanished. Henry Alexan
der Wise, Ei-Governor, and Ex -rebel general,
has spoken, and the thing is settled. On
Wednesdayaast, the oracle spoke, and gave
his final decision upon the great questions
thathave convulsed the country. Starting with
the fact (according to Wise). that "there is
an effort to make the white freemen at the
South subject to the domination of the black
freemen," he assured his hearers that the •
"white masses of the North will not .permit'
The saerifiee - of Nature's laws to-political pre—
judice." It may have occurred to some of
Mr: Wise's hearers' that "Nature's - laws" - are,-
to a certain extent, independent of the will
even of the white masses of the North. They
govern most things in this country,.but, as
yet, they seem willing to leave Nature's laws
about where they have always been. It is
to be hoped that they will not be sacrificed.
The Republican party must not meddle; with
gravitation, nor burn its fingers with elec
tricity. The spirit of progress cannot afford
to expedite the revolution of the earth, .and
the thirst for increased light must be' allayed
without - . tinkering with the constitution
of the sun. Mr. Wise is
right. The Republican party . well
knows that upon these issues it would be tit
terlrdefeated at the next presidential election.
"Sacrifice Natures laws?" A single such
plank in the Republican'platform might make
Jeff. Davis or Robert E. Lee President of the
United States. On this point, thanks to the
wisdom of the wise, we are fore-warned, and
the danger needs but to be known to be
avoided.
PIPLADELPHLL
But the Solon of Virginia not only indicates
the things which - are not to be done, but
those whicli are to be done. Not only must
Nature be left in undisturbed control of the
universe, but the Yankees must be brought
into Virginia. On these two cardinal princi
ples hang all the safety, the prosperity, nay,
the very existence of the Republic. And
now .that we know, it, we are safe.
,Wise says: "The whites of New
England, the Middle States, and of Europe,
must not be kept out of the South by black
rii]e "_"'To"which all the people stry - Amenr -
The whites of New England and the Middle
States have been 'desirous for some years
past, to go South, but have hitherto been
kept out by the black rule. A white
friend of Governor Wise, named Brown, at
tempted to go South, as long ago as 1859,
but was stopped by "black rule." Governor
Wise took him to his arms and did what he
eould for him, but he never got much beyond
Harper's Ferry. The whites of New England
and the Middle States made several attempts
during the late rebellion to go South in con
siderable numbers, and' all the world now
knows how they were kept out by the very
blackest of black rules. Wherever they sought
a foot-hold,the adherents of the "black rule,"
under great chieftains like Wise and Beaure
gard and Pillow and Forrest, hoisted ;their
black flag and drove them back. And even
up to this day, the same "black rule," some
what less able, but no less willing to assert
itself, has managed to maintain itself in every
one of the rebel States. The "whites of New
England and the Middle States" have' been
"kept out of' the South by it." White school
mistresses, white- farmers, white laborers,
white preachers have been made to feel that
the old "black rule" was still able to make
the South too hot to hold them. The Freed
men's Bureau has done what it could. Sheri
dan,Pope and Sickles have tried hard to open .
the way for -them, but - the-`-`black--rule" has._
the prestige of many generations, and it is not
so easily broken down.
But now the Yankee is bidden to. lift up
his head and to rejoice. Wise has planted
one foot on the Constitution and the other
on his native heath, and sworn that the men
of 'New England shall no longer be kept out
of the South. He' offers them
,his *own
protection. He warns his old comrades
to desist from their opposition to his
new friends. Once more, he holds up
before them the example 'of John
Brown, and teaches them that the salvation
of Virginia depends upon, a rapid infusion
of Northern energy, education and enterprise.
"White rule," which means light, and educa
tion and progress, and civilization and free
dom, is to take the place of the old "black
rule" of the South, which meant ignorance
and prejudice, and the barbarism of slavery.
It is a great thing for the, country that Gene
ral Henry . A.. Wise ran away safely from
'Roanoke Island in 18t.;2. Otherwise he might'
not have lived to open the doors of the South
in 1667, to the "everlasting Yankees," whose
presence he now invokes as earnestly as he
eluded it when he left the neighborhood of
Burrasidennd Goldsborough so unceremoni
ously, five years ago.
Among political parties it is customary for
the "outs" to affect virtue and a desire for re
form, no matter what the character of their
administration may have been while they
were in power. We are-not surprised, there
fore, that the Copperheads have discovered
the injustice of our present representative
system, and are clamoring for the adoption
of some plan by which minorities can have a
direct representation in legislative bodies.
But while we may be affected by the show
of virtuous indignation on their part, we
must not forget one very important fact, that
the Democratic party-is the minority now,
and that during the thirty years of its
reign the sufferings of the -then minority
did not excite the slightest sympathy. There
are many good Republicans who favor the
adoption of some system of personal repre
sentation, by which the minority shall bear a
proper proportion to the majority in Congress
and the Legislature. But while this is ad
mirable in theory, it will be found to operate
very badly in practice, badly at least for the
winning side. Suppose that in a community
where five Congressmen are to be elected,
the relative proportion of the Democrats to
the Republicang4ii as two to three. Under
the proposed plan, instead of having five Re
publicans in Congress we would have but
three,with two Democrats. These latter would
neutralize the votes of two of the Republicans,
leaving but one alcient man to represent the
whole constituency. Combine these Demo
crats with those from districts where voters
of that party preponderate, and the passage
of a bill by a two-thirds vote would, in most
cases, be out of the question. Nearly all the
legislation of the last Congress would have
been prevented by this system, and the
President would have sent in vetoes without
any fear of having them passed over his
head. It is urged that this would be fair
enough, because the representatives would
bear an exact proportion to the voters on
each side. But it is not fair. The an
cient republican principle that the ma
jority shall rule, is a good and

true one, and this would utterly defeat it,
A. party triumphs and goes into'power on the
strength of-certain principles which—it prom—
ises to apply to the administration of public
affairs; but this system actually prevents such
application in most important cases, and
makes legislation an eternal compromise with
1
the opposition. The dont' eis not likely to
(
prove popular while t Re üblican party is
so largely in the ruaj rity. When, if it ever
does, the Democratic part succeeds in get
ting the power into its ha s, their arguments
may appear more forcib e. If they insist
upon the adoption of the opoHd plan then,
we may advocate it. Certainly no good..ge-:
nublican will, do so until that time.. —•-
Among certain classes of not too ardent
Republicans, there is a sort of sentirasntal
feeling that because Judge Sharswood is arpure
man, an upright judge and an able lawyer,
and because be is personally known to them,
it will be better to vote for him at the ap
proaching election, rather than •for a man
with whose merits they are not directly ac
quainted. There can be no more hurtful
and dangerous view taken of the situation
than this. Argue as we may of the-necessity for
keeping the judicial ermine unstained from the
fdth of party_politics, this is purely a poli
tical question, the candidates have political
sympathies and influence, and are regarded
as the exponents of partizan views. Even if
the choice of a- judge was simply a
matter of personal feeling, which could ex
ercise no influence whatever upon political
questions, the Republican candidate is as
upright and able as the other, and deserves
support from sheer fellowship. But it is not
so. These men are mere human beings with
like•passions and. prejudices—with--ourselves
and they carry these with them upon the
bench. There is, moreover, a great principle
at stake. It is not merely whether Judge
Williams shall triumph over Judge Shars
wood, but it is the broad issue whether the
Democratic party shall defeat the National
and patriotic party and thus obtain a foothold,
a "purchase" to enable it to accomplish
greater victories in the future. It is the
question of Andrew Johnson and his clique
of Copperheads and rebel sympathizers
against the people. The man, therefore, who
through any private and individual* prej
id favor of Judge Sharswood, casts a for
him, 'contributes to the Democratic disunion
party a certain amount of power and influence
that will surely be used against him and
the Republicans in the nbxt campaign.
The Moral effect is bad. eNo man can
touch pitch without being defiled. Voting
With the Democratic party is like the first in
dulgence in a sin; the man is toll certain ex
tent demoralized, and it is much easier to do
the next time. The prestige gained by
a Democratic success will exert St vast influ
ence over those timid, vacillating souls who
are afraid to be numbered with a righteous
minority and can always be found on the side
of the winner in the last contest. Judge Wil-
hams deserves the vote of every honest Re
publican. The man in that party who votes
against him is untrue to his principles and
unworthy •of fellowship with the faithful
members of the organization.

teasels* Despatch to the Philadelphia evening Bulletin.]
WASHINtnoN, AUglll3t 23.—The Ditelligeneer of
this' morning contains another important Cabinet
article. It says: "Stanton's presence In the
Cabinet was an element of weakness. He never
gad any personal followers. Arbitrary and dog
matic, he forced those about him to be either
obedient servitors or defiant opponents. He
must either fawn, or play the despot. When he
dared he bullied. When he met his superiors
he cringed. But this was not his most of
fensive feature. He had no respect for civil
liberty. Courts of justice were disregarded.
Men were arbitrarily arrested and thrown
into prison without celiac; sometimes dis
charged without the slightest acknowled;;
went of gross wrongs done to them, and often
tried by a Military Commission and hurried off to
an illegal imprisonment. The just Lincoln often
Intervened to check Ibis lawless tyranny,
and on several occasions acknowledged
that nothing but the exigencies
of the country justified Stanton's retention in
office. Stanton" tools traveled over ttie 'country
with blank forms of arrest, and honest men
were made the victims of their avarice and ma
}evolence.--•-A-free_press_..in _.the_nationei,,eepit4l,.
was a mockery, and even the powerful
conductor of the Government organ
dreaded to provoke Stanton's hostility. Honest
Republicans and earnest conservatives uniform
ally detest this man. He was proved to be in
complicity with the enemies of the• President,
and when at last he was ignomini
ously suspended, the friends of -- constitutional
liberty approved the deeds. and the feeble outcry
raised by those who have profited by his treachery
cannot dull the public appreciation of the fact
that no gentleman will sit in the privy
council of an executive where his pre
sence is not welcome. We go fur
ther and allirur that no one should hold such
a position whose antecedents and aspirations
have been Buch as to embarrass the free action of
his chief. There is one gentleman of dis
11Kr:dated ability and eminent public services
whose name has been more or less identified with
the Secretary of War. In most Cabinet strag
gles they heartily cooperated. Public rumor •
has attributed to them a greater or less closeness
of relationship in the present administration.
Several strong friends of the Secretary
of State have been steady champions
of the Secretary of Wat. The Jidda =hates
of the former, who controlled the poli
tical fortunes of the Empire State for
Plus, has on all occasions defended
the defunct Cabinet minister. The trimming
editor of the Times has also energetically
come to his resetfe. To the exertions of these
three Kentlemen, more than to any and all other
causes, is the fact due that the President so
long delayed meting out
_justice to
his refractory. subordinate. ' The asso
ciation has damaged Mr. Seward's
usefulness. We are not among those who deny
his exalted ability, patriotism, or great services
to the country. We think that he will live in his
tory long after his detractors are forgotten;
but there are times when the only
question a patriotic man should ask
is, how can I advance the. interest of my
country by harmonizing all the friends of con
..stitntioual government? The associations of
'Which we have spoken will prevent that unity
of support among the friends of the administra
tion which, in our judgment, is indispensable
to its success. Under such circumstances, It is
believed that no true friend of Secretary Seward
could object to his retirement from the oftir..•e he
has filled with so much ability, and with such
honor to himself and the country."

St. Paul's Methodist Episcopal Church, corner
of Twenty-second street and Fourth avenue. A
large number of personal friendS, together

• At three o'clock the officiating' clergymen, fol
lowed by the pall-bearers and the family and
friends of the deceased, entered the church, and
having formed in procession, moved lip the aisle
and assumed their various places. The sei vices

known and beautiful anthem, "I heard a voice
from Heaven saying, fee." A psalm was then
read by Dr. Janes, after which a hymn was sung.
Dr. Foster then offered an . appropriate s and ear
nest prayer, and Dr. Holdielt. read the solemn
and impressive chapter of Corinthians generally
used on such occasions. •
The following letter was read byDr.
Jock:

The Fenian Convenron is- still in session at
NO.. 814 Broadway. ,The laisiness of the Conven
tion is kept entirely secret, and a guard has been
placed upon the door leading to the hall of the
meeting. The Committee en Credentials has
concluded their labors. It is said that about 250
delegates arc in the Convention from different
circles, but not more than thirty-five or forty
delegates have been present at any time—accord
ing to a statement made by a delegate who has
attended the Convention. John'Savage It is said, will be elected to-day to the position of
Deputy Head-Centre, which will be vacated by
Mr. Griffin, the present incumbent.
About noon yesterday a steward on the Canard
steamship Tarifa, named William Reed, aged
twenty-five years, was in the act of throwing
some refuse overboard, when hLs foot struck a
rope and he tumbled headlong over the side of
the vessel into the water. So great Was the shock
he received in stumbling that he sank at once,
and did not afterwards rise. Nearlyhalf an hour
elapsed before the body was recovered, and un
successful attempts at resuscitation were made
with a galvanic battery. An inquest was held by
Coroner Warren, and a verdict of accidental
drowning was returned. Deceased was a native
of Yorkshire, England, and was unmarried.
At 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon, the gang
way of the steamship South America, lying at
Pier No. 43 North river, suddenly broke in the
centre, precipitating five men and one woman
into the river. .They were quickly drawn out,
with no other damage than the wetting.

Gen. Sickles.
It would seem that Gen. Sickles does not feel
disposed to recognize the fact that he has a supe
rior officer. Ile arrogates to himself the right
to set aside the authority of him who is made
his Commander-in-Chief by the Constitution of
the United States. In spite of the instructions
of Gen. Grant, emanating from the President,
directing him not to interfere with the process of
the United States Courts, he persists in his eon
tomacy,,iind has directed his subordinate
Wilimngton, Col. Wank, to prevent tile exe
cution of the process of the Court. Perhaps this
is no more than to be looked for. A man
who would undertake to give his will more force
than the force of a legislative enactment, as In
the case of order No. JO, and who has
so little respect for the highest civil tribunal in
the land as to disregard its authority, may be ex
pected to contemn the orders of his superior. It
is about time that Gen. Sickles was made to un
derstand that. though he has lost a leg in the war
for the Union. he is not the autocrat of the Caro
linas; and that, though/a Commanding General,
he must still respect th, authority of the supreme
judicature of the country, and of his Commander
tn Chief: ores may be invaluable in
time of war, but in ti e of peace they must be
subordinate to the courts of justice; and, though
the President is Commander-in-Chief, he is e • by
virtue of the fact that he is Chief Magistrate of
the nation, and must hold the sword subject to
the sacred majesty of the law.-11raAineiton, lu

Suicide at Metes Falls, N. Y.
The Glen's Falls .I?..ptedi•Nit records a sad case of
suicide of an accomplished young . lady of South
Glen's Falls. It says that Elvira Doty, aged
about twenty-eight years, the daughter of - .Mr.
William Doty, who lives in South Glen's Falls,
has received the attentions of a young man living
at Moreau Station, employed in the office of the
Saratoga and Whitehall Railroad. Their intimacy
has continued, apparently without interruption;
for nearly SiX }Tars, and until the world at large
bad regarded them as afilcanced lovers. On Satur
day evening the young lady attended the theatrical
exhibition at Union Hall. Scarcely had, the
performance commenced, When the • Moreau
Station gentleman was observedto eater the
hall, accompanied-- by a young lady. Elvira,
seeing her truant lover, soon rose and left the
ball, and, refusing the company of her brother,
started alone for home. She crossed the river
bridge, and wending her way down a street which
leads directly to the river, she plunged into the
water and was drowned. Early Sundaymonaing
a neighbor discovered a jockey hat lying upon a
platform used for sorting logs, and at 8 o'clock
the lifeless body of the unfortunate young lady
was recovered.
Postal Treaty Between the united
States and Spain.
El Cronesta, the Spanish organ In New York,in
its iFEne of the :21st inst., contains the followin g
in allusion to the subject of a postal treaty be-
tweeu this country and Spain:
•,'That such a project is in view we learned re::
centiy from a reliable source. We cannot doubt
the truth of the statement, being aware. of the in
telligence and activity of Senor d i e Goki, our Min
ister to the United States,and knowing howgreat
is the esteem which he has won after a few
months' intercourse with the American Govern
ment. As the subject is one of importance to
both nations, whose commerce extends over the
ocean, it is probable that there will be no delay in
the Conclusion of the postal treaty, and that it
will be an accomplished fact within a short time."

Dr •TII or A VETERAN Suit-numom
veteran and well-known ship-builder, -
Birely, died at four o'clock this morning, at his
residence in Kensington, atthe ripe old age of
seventy4ive years. He was the builder of many
of the finest packet shl2 - s that; in the days of
sailing-vessels, were the pride and glory of this
port. His fame was at its zenith when the big
East-Indiamen's sails whitened the waters of the
Delawa7e.
In the year 1814 Mr. Birely was appointed by
President Madison a lieutenant in the regular
army. He subsoluently , rose to- the rank of
major. Returning to ship-building, he con
structed all the lighters and most of the ships
employed by Captain Loper in the Mexican war.
Last night he had a company of friends at his
house, including Mr. Neallie, of the firm of
Neaffie, Levy & Co. The topic was the construc
tion of vessels so as to combine speed with great
strength. He retired to bed at 9 o'clock in
apparently perfect health. At 4 o'clock this
Morning his wife was aroused by a moaning
sound. She raised her husband up on the pillows
and summoned the family. The good man's
spirit passed peacefully away, without a single
struggle. He leaves two sons and three daugh
ters. One of the former is in the U. S. Revenue
service. and all are the heads of families..
Greater yet than his shill as a ship-builder was
his abounding charity. The hand of want was
never extended to him in vain. He spent his en
tire adult life in Kensington, and his funeral—of
which due notice will be given—will probably be
one of the largest private funerals ever witnessed
in Philadelphia. He was a member of no other
society than the Methodist Church.
