BEIITZ'S Mavis:se at Horticeltural Hall, yester

' (From the London Storming Heratd. Dee. 6.1
* • * "' * Thinking men in this country.who
bale watched from afar the mutations of amen-
Aan opinion during the fast fe4v years. will ( corn
'mend the President, alike for' the efforts Inc ha,
made on behalf of the South's• restoration to Its
'rights,,ard for his unshaken' determination to
persevere in them; though many will'regret teat
lie should so often have played into hie (moo
t el, ts' hands by eccentricities, which none have
i-o much reason to regret as thoso-Witosecausehe
has acivodated. The upright and stralgntfor ward
avowalerof policy ini portions of .his address are
valculated to deepen this latter feeling. In hon
rable contrast with many of his more prominent
adversaries, he recognizeS " 4 return to specie
payments as the obvious duty of the Govern
%eta, at the earliest moment, consistent with
-ound principles of political economy.",. What
is yet more gratifying to foreign bondhoklers, he,
:tikes his stand upon national and commercial
' , nu grity, saving that "the public faith regarding
:be debt should 'be sdcredly observed," one essen
ial tot' which is that very return to Specie Ray
tueni-, of which he had previously spoken. The
. t venue returns, however, do not look par
iettlarly promising. But this Is not a vita,
matter. A great country and a young country
ittay enloy, the proverbial privilege of youth. and
nay treat money matters somewhate lightly, so
cog as there is always cash at all. The con
l tiding postiorts Of' the Mearrage are "perhaps the
crest directly interesting to ourselves. "Still
aarping on my daughter, - Mr. Johnson once
more introduces the vexed tubjectof the Alabama
ininaA. * * •* We may congratulate our
•eadere upon the fact that all serious cause for
i eatery about these claims has now ceased.
Mr. Johnson thinks that "no apprehension
nerd he felt that Great Britain will
persist in refusing to satisfy' these
,uet 'and reasonable claims." Lord Stanley in
ithstanee says he will satisfy them as soon as
diey have been pronounced "just and reason

onS advice t'o Congress to declare that a natu
alized foreigner is absolved frotaall allegiance to
lit government of his own country. At present
very native European In America is bound byan
-minting obligation to the country of his birtn,
od a well-known maxim of our own common
aw declares that such allegiance cannot be re
flunced or shaken off at the mere will of the sub
. ct. But if CongreEsshould act on the President's
':commendation, they will in effect be attempt
i .g to alter the laws, not of their own, but of
.tier countries; as good an expedient for bring
art; abunt a series of embroihnents as anybod3r
an well imagine. For the sako of the Republic
• retell, therefore, we trust that no attempt of the
• lad will be made, that all unreasonable condi
iorai as to the arbitrament of the Alabama claims
s ill be abandoned, and especially, that the Presi
dent may so far succeed in Increasing the number
sf his supporters as to. insure, a. speedy tri

dvocated.
[From the London Daily Newa Dee. 5.1" ,
The telegraphic summary of President John
-"on's message exhibits him in the old antagonistic
• isaude and querulous temper with which the
l'Oblicia so familiar. - The. President has never
ecovered from the delusion which—iery much
:hrough the fault of Congress—took firm pos
-ession of his mind in the ftrst year of his" office,
.hat be is the Legislature' of the United States;
secordingly he speaks in this message of "Con
qessional legislation" as if it were a rival and inv."
-.alas power. Mr. - Johnson's Opinions on the beet
method: of reconstructing the Union have
.aart urged upon Congress in every foradonad
with advantages which do not now attend their
aprehsion; he nevertheless repeats them as. VC
t,atuently as ever. and persistently misrepresents
tie opponents. Perhaps this is as ranch his mis
ortune as his fault. * * *_ The expectation
"f an "easy restoration of the Umon," of which
qr. Johnson speaks, is an afterthought. Ito one
,it his senses ever imagined that the reconstrue
than el the great fabric which was so terribly
•halten by four years of war would be easily ac
complished; but the delay and partial failure of
tie efforts made in that direction are chiefly
clue to the mischievous and tuaauthorized later
dieddling of Mr. Johnson, who' has grievously
misled the Southern States, and induced them to
!Alter upon a course which has hitherto prevented
he return of peace and prosperity. The acme
shwas egotism which prompts the President to
ecture Congress on its legislation—which is its
pm - per business, and net Ws--has led him to in
troduce a wholly gratuitous threat into his Ines
• age. No President with common self-respect,
aut to speak of an intelligent, patriotic regard
ro r the reputation of his country, would
tare openly anticipated such a ' conflict
is Mr. Johnton foreshadows. By "abut
string a coordinate department of the
:overnment" he can only meanabolishing
Ise Presidency. But this is what Congresa Is not
ii the least likely to attempt, as Mr. Johnson
s.nbtless satisfied, himself before inditing this
'art of his ineK•age. * * * A stableman in
be Presidential chair would have avoided above
di things the foolish lan age in which M.
tolinson undertakes to "sa e ;leer - life life I of the na
at all hazards." The silted States must be
0 lissome condition now n they were ever in
lurieg the war if it depends upon a man.of Mr.
ohnson'e discernment and capacityto save their
,ational life. ' * * * * * * * * The
, assagee in the message which relate to the pub-
Le debt of the Union have been written .under
etter advice than some others, and will be read
A Ith much satisfaction in this country after the
very foolish and disgusting suggestions of Mr.
sutler and others. * * ' O, If. .President John
sin is correctly reported, the Government of the
railed States has declined to refer. the ' Alabama
luinis to arbitra lim
arbitration within the its laid dorm
in the despatch of Lord Stanley. The extraordi
nary arguments resorted to by Mr. - Seward, In
ids correspondence, had prepared tut Vs hear that
our recognition of the Confederateci assbelliger
eats Is regarded at Washington as intervention
on behalf of Ithe seceded States. ,On this 'point
certainly we should have nothing to apprehend

Our attention itas recently been called to a new
article of Steam . Packing, the merits of which
tre so unqueationable that its adoption for en

packing is used, must semi become generaL
The enormous aggregate conumptian of the
various kinds of steam packs g employed, and
the public no less than private importance of
rising the best, are our reasons for giving
prominence to the article in question. The
oacking referred to is manufactured by the
Silver , Lake Manufacturing Company,

.hat date, the opportunities. for testing its
superiority over other packings have
Wen ample, and the result, we can state on un

to it the importance of a standard national arti
cle. Tee packing, we may state without entering
too minutely into details, is composed of dry,
nowdered subetaneee, combined with fibrous
materials, and requires no gresee or oil; and Is,
moreover, so constructed as to impart the most
perfect lubrication at the first motion of the pis

Yesterday morning at .ten ' minutes past ten
o'clock the family of" Mr. Batumi Ward, residing
at No; 2k Penn street, heard` a pistol shot In an'
upper chnnther of the house, oceipied by ,
young man named Jas. Mannix.• Some members
of the family hastened 'up stairs, and upon en
tering the room of young Niannis they found the ,
unfortunate man lying on the floor weltering in .
a pool of, blood. He was placed in bed, and Dr,
Speer was called to attend upon him. •An :
examination of the wound; added to the het that
a four-barrelled platol was found on the floor be
side 'him, showed that young Mannif had been
shot in the abdomen, the ball entering near the
navel, and passing through the body,lodging near
the spinal column. Death ensued at twenty
minutes past three o'clock P. M. A short time
•before his death the deceased stated that he had
shot himself with the pistol found on'
the leer; he had Committed the act. be
cause he had no wish to live longer;
be had a reason for destroying himself, bat he
desired that that reason should be buried in the •
grave with his bogy. After saying this much he
bteadlly refused to converse farther upon the sub
jt et, and thus he died, a stranger in a• strange
land, we may add, for nothing calk be learned of
the deceased further than that ho came to the
city about three years ago—according to the
statements made to his shopmates—?rote the
State of Alabama. where his people resided.
Since the above was written we have learned
that the deceased was involved in a lore affair, \
which bad resulted unfavorably to himself, and
this has been suggested as the probable cause for
the commission of the rash act. A person who
knew young Manulx intimately has stated since
his (?lannix's) death that he complained several
days ter() of having trouble, and stated at the
same time that there Wa.3 a lady in the ease.
Murderous' Arisanie upon an Edator.
Ernat the Savannah Republican of the ltith.l
About half punt five o'clock on Sattuday after
noon, two co w unify. ruffians, named Charles IL.
Ilopkins,Jr., and Robert Hopitins,walked into the
bubiness office of the Republican and saluted the
editor and proprietor, Mr. John E. Hayes. The
former held ont his hand and Mr. Hayes took it,
and they shook hands. lie retained a firm grasp of
Mr. Hayee's right hand, after passiug the saluta
tions of the evening, and with his left hand
struck Mr. Hayes in the face, at the same time
lasing the most, j.irofaue :cud abusive language.,
fitter striking Mr. Hayes, he pulled him round,
and the other scoundrel, Robert Hopkins, struck
him a at blo on the head with the loaded end - of
a whip, Which canted a severe scalp wound, and
felled - hina to the floor. As he fell several more
blows were Struck by both parties, and when on
-the actor thev kicked hire, accorapanYing their
aseanit by, abusive and prone:it: language.
The blow upon the head stunned Mr. Haps for
a moment: but recovering, he told :c negro boy,
'who wart in, Abe office, to call for help. As the
boy was aboUt to run up stairs, one of them told
him not tO,` stir to call anybOdy, or he would.
Smash his head. "freaking away from them,
wounded and blending prolusely, Mr. Hayes ran
to the front door, the murderous villains pun

victim managed to escape to the strixst and

Havingfew,

comlished his - purpose, one' of
.the intended
murderers put his instrument of death undet'his
coat and walked away. E The elder one rem:tilled,
to heap the vilest abuse upon the victim of the
covvardly outrage.
Mr. Mtge.& was taken to his residence, and the
medical skill of Drs. King 'and Bulloch called to
his assistance. The skull was not fractured; but
the blow cut a flesh wound about three inches in
length, and into the bone. He is Severely bruised
about the body, and sutlers from concussion of
the brain.
The extreme cowardliness of the assault will
be Stela when we state that these persons stood
on the corner of Buil street, and remained there
uutil they saw every person connected with the
ettice leave for the evening, and then came in to
ao their murderous work, when Mr. Hayes was
alone Ili the office. Fortunately a negro boy was
present, who witnessed the whole afficir.
Jr. tiek' a l l% arrant was issued by Jus

Yesterday Mr. Hayes was in ouch. a critical
Ltditiou that the affidavit of Dr. King was taken
to that effect. In the afternoon- he • MIS still
worse, and Aldermast Prank Gee arrested the two
Lucie and had theta committed to jail by Justice
Russell, to await the result of Mr. Mayes' Inju

Ilepkins told Lieutenant Wray that. he had no

The cause of the attack is supposed to have

Mr. Hayes was in a very critical condition last
tnight, and suffering c2Lrcmel s from fainting fits'
and convulsions.

At Grace Church, Jersey City, on Monday.
evening, the Right. Rey. Bishop Odenheimer
delivered an address upon the Pan-Aught:lin
Council, from the text, Psalms Ina, i; -Be
hold how good and how pleasant it is ror
brethren to dwell together in unity." Bishop ,
Odenheitner said that during his twomotiths'
absence he met Bishops,from Ireland, Scot
land, Africa, Gibraltar, China, Japan, Jerui
ealem, Bombay and Nova Semle r , beside
those from the American Church, and nume
rous other sections of the Christian world.
The characteristiee Of the Anlican debate
were its tenderness and delicacy, and the
abience of all pedantry and self-conscious
ness. During the progress of the conferences, '
at the warmer intervals in the debate, the
lecturer had seen tears standing in the
eyes of hari-headed, world-renowned
;writers of treatises, whp could, not agree with
one another in opinion, and yet wept to dim
,gree. Even those of the debaters whir are
highest in the confidence of temporal princes
w ere men of God. The presiding' Bishop, his
Grace the Archbishop , of Canterbury,• Was, a
man whom all that knew 'must love, , and, al
though in the gradations of English rank his
place was next to that of royalty itself,the
lecturer thought that it was nearer still to
God. In the Bishop of Winchester- the
brightest accomplishments of social and scho
lastic lifowere united to fi most genial end
Christian spirit. The Bishop of Gloucester and .
Bristol, that fine Greek scholar better known
to us as Dr. Aleek Clarke, and the Bishop of ,
Ealing, Dr. Browne, whom work on the 39
Articles is fumiliar to the religious read
ers of every clime, were both men as gentle
as they were learned. Of the Bishop of Ox
ford the lectures spoke as the Cerysostom of
England, and remarked that the power of his
eloquence and truth was as well known
here as in tins own country. The lecturer's
greatest tribute of nraise, however, was
awarded to Archbish - op Selwyn, whom. he
onutuiced the met ropolitan 'of New Zealand,
and to whose missionary, labors he adverted
in terms of the most affectionate eulogy.
Archbishop Selwyn had looked with a sort
,of divine scorn upon all positions in the
church, the lucre and honor of which com
mended them to the eyes of the' world,
and bad ,devoted the noblest - ,energies of
his life to • the ealiation of obscure hea- ,
then. The lecturer. staving eensidered some
of the principal ineiubeis of the Couneil,now
gave a short descriptitin of the > plan of their
assembling. The Archiepiscopal Palace of
Lambeth, in which the Conference was held, -
dati.d beck to the twelfth mutiny, the hall
used having once been the Armory. Tire
walls were covered with the por
traits of the Archbishops of Canter
bury to beyond the time of " the Reforma
tion. The debate was held with closed doors;
no authorized reports were published. ;The ,.
chief place of interest was the Chapel, in
which every bishop, from time iememorlal,
had been consecrated. Here the lecturer in
terjected the thought that,irhould the heresy of
Cole= overspread the Church of Ragland;
that Church would go down as coinpletely,
as the Church of Ephesus. One thing that
the Conkrenee bad not accomplished was
the decision of , disputed doctrines in. divin
ity. Its main object had been to promote
fraternity of feeling. In the ktturer's
opinion, it was the most important
time
of the land ever held since the of the
Reformation. It had reaffiruisd the- propi
tiatory sacrifice of the Cross; it had borne
'Wituesa to the faith deliveted to the saints; it
bad presented the primitive and Othello
pillar as the ground of truth , as it is in Jesus.
In conclusion, the lecturer addressed a few
awakening words to such were apathetic
