gle Vrtss. FRIDAY, JUKE 10, 100 u, New Jersey. The 'Union men of New Jersey have carried the question of purging the national constitution—by ratifying the joint resolu tion of Congress to amend that great char ter by abolishing slavery forever in these - United States—to the people. A splendid issue, and it should inspire a, splen did canvass. New Jersey is the only free State that has refused to sanction, so as to complete this noble work. A number of Southern States have cordially said yes—only New Jersey in the North says no. We are not surprised that the action of the last legislature of New Jersey should have stirred all the fountains of public opinion, and that it is decided to arraign the “remocratic" leaders for advising or supporting this action. If, with such advantages, the State is not carried against slavery, we shall be greatly surmised. The following call for a State Convention has been issued The Union men of New Jersey are requested to samobie iii meir respective townships or wards and Sleet delegates tore-present them lathe Union State Convention. to be held in the ally of Trenton on Thursday, July 20th next, at twelve o'clock M:, to nominate a oavdidate for Governor. an citizens in layer of sustaining the adminis• Mu of President Johnson—of securing the aimed. meat to the Constitution abolishing slavery, and re cognizing and rewarding to the full extent the sa crifices, suffertngS, and achievements of our heroic soldiers. are invited to take part in this effort to re deem our State, and relieve her from her present disgraceful attitude, as the only one among the free States which refuses to sanction the censtitutional abolishment of slavery. Townships and wards will be entitled to one dote• gate for each One thousand of population, upon the basis of the census of 1800, and to an additional de. haste for any tractional excess over five hundred.

O^VMMV.IIB, Union State Executive Committee. Jonii ItErrenah closes the last act of his service in the rebellion as a self-made pris oner. He has bullied the Wvernraent into arresting him. It is difficult how to deal - with a wretch who deliberately prostitutes his rare abilities to insult the God that made and the laws that protect him. If he were a lunatic, he might save himself from disgrace, and the lawyers from trou ble. It is hard to believe that all this man's venom is real. It is so objectless as to seem less the result of sheer brutality than of hunger for a vile notoriety. Nobody has hurt this bitter scold. He has been spoiled by the very people he now de nounces. He was let back into New York as a new sign of kindness on the part of the Government, and his first step was to seize upon BEN Woon's News, in which hot abilse of the Administration, for not forgiving just such vagabonds, has been common ; and his next to snarl at, defy, and lie about the very man who permitted him to go loose. This is a sorry sight. It is like the painted wanton attacking a pure woman, as the best way to get to jail; or like the savage PAYNE, who tries to murder a man who was kind to his worst enemies. That nature is indeed astray which makes a science of seeking to be odium. Some men instinctively inspire dislike, but that is " the worm's nature." Here is one who toils to make millions hate him ! The violence of MITCHEL'S ma lignity defeats its end, if he has any in view. If it is true that there are serpents who can sting themselves to death, we are disposed to speculate that one of them has taken complete possession of JOHN MITCBEL. Tint following biographical sketch of one of the most remarkable men in the history of Pennsylvania, is from the pen of Hon. A. K.. McCtunE, editor of the Chambersburg Repository Hon. Ner Middleswarth died at his residence, in Snyder county, on the 2d inst., at the ripe age of nearly elehty-three years. Ills parents settled in Union county in 1795, and left Ner, without edu cation or fortune, to aid him in his struggle with the world. Bet possessing great natural abilities and tireless energy, be made his mark at an early age in the polities of his County. Ile was Chosen to the legislature as a Democrat Soon after the war of 1812, and served some seventeen ;sessions, during several of which he pre sided over the House. When the Anti-elasonie ere generation was effeoted he was one of its - brat and ablest advocates. It is more than probable that he might have been the Democratic candidate for governor had he continued to support that Organization ; but he not only severed his aesociee Hon with the party, but carried Union oonnty around, and made it one of the strongest and most reliable counties for she opposition. The chief blot upon his official career was his persistent hostility to general education. Unlike most nen who have been denied the advantages of learning them selves, he did not seem to appreciate the duty of t he St a te to give the best guarantee for the per petuity or our free institutions, by Wldelpread and thorough education ; and Site county steadily elected legislators, for years after the adoption of the tobool-law, who were pledged to its repeal. 1847, to flit the unexpired term of Dr. Wagonseller, and in 1848 was the Whig candidate for canal corn ndesioner on the ticket with Wm. F. Johnston for goveznor. Johnston was elected by some 300 ma jority, but ediddleswarth was beaten by Israel Pain ter nearly 2,000, mainly because of his determined hostility to the legislative measures designed to protect labor. In 18e2 he was chosen to Congress, but retired after serving a single term, and soon thereafter he was chosen an associate judge of Say. der county. We believe that. he has given more years to public position than any other man in the State, and all his °feelsl trusts were discharged with unbending integrity and 001181101- mate ability. As a presiding officer, he was unser paesed by any in the country. In 1824 he presided over the convention that nominated John Quincy Adams for President, and in the House,of this State he was confessedly the best ever called lo the chair. The infirmities of age have limited his participa tion in public affairs for some years past, but he was Still Settee in hie private pursuits until his death. Few Melt of our state have exercised e 0 much in. fluenee In Merritt] , as Ner altedleswartts, and had he been as liberal and progressive as his vast Intel ligence should have mace him, he would have filled a much higher measure of honors and metal Zees. LETTER FROM " OCCASIOIiTAL.” WASHINGTON, June 15, 1865 Whenever a grievance is to be redressed, a right asserted, or a new, idea formally ad vertised, one of the accepted ways is to send a deputation to President Johnson. Nor is the practice objectionable. If the chief magistrate can spare the time, I do not know a better way to ascertain the wishes of the people. Within decent limits of language and of leisure, a free inter change of opinion between the head of the Government and the represen tatives of the masses, must react healthfully. Candor, without heat, and brevity without rudeness, will save many misunderstandings and dispel many pre judices. President Johnson seems dis posed to give all who call on him a fair chance to speak for themselves, and to hear him in response. How various, how novel, how wonderfully A.merican, the views and objects of these visitors ! In no other land can such a spectacle be seen. There is something impressive in the practice. On the part of the people there is no cringing to power, no assumption of su periority, no threats of vengeance if dis appointment follows the fervent appeal and, on the part of the President, there i no appearance of authority, no gloomy aes terity, and no unseeming Those who have been present at his re zeption of the men who have come here in regard to the reorganization of the seceded 13tates, will never forget his language and his bearing. Be spoke with marked kind. ness and yet with significant resolution. He made no promise to the ear to be broken to the hope. And I think it may be said, that not one of them left in - doubt as to the meaning of his words. On TuPsday last, a de putation of New York Quakers called to read an address to him about negro suf frage. They bore themselves with the composure and quiet of their school. I think there is nothing more agreeable than the serene and unabashed courage of a •conscientious Friend. He has so little veneration forthe dignities, and seems to have such a constant idea lest he may be overawed in the presence of power, as sometimes to carry his unconcern close to the borders of irreverence. The commit tee I refer to were earnest and decided been and women, feeling every word they spoke, and waiting with eager eyes for the President's reply. What it was, I need not iterate. On that subject he has already laid down his policy. It was a single Ben tom that he uttered that I desire to note. He asked them at:first to sit down, and have a private family talk on the subject; and when they had read their short ad dress, he conversed with them in so maul and straightforward a style that he soon captured, if not their convictions, at least their conedenee. One expression I shall never forget : " You tell me, friends, of the liberation of the colored people of the South, whose friend I have always been, and whose protector I am resolved to be i but," and his countenance glowed with a peculiar feeling as he asked the question, "have you ever thought of the millions of Southern white people that have also been liberated by the war ?" Upon such a text we need no speeches, and certainly no long letters. OCCASIONAL. THE ASSASSINATION TRIAL —To-day, Hon. *r.- verdy Johnson will read the argument In defence of Mr.s Swett ; Mr. Stone will follow, in defence of Mudd and Harold. To.morrow, Mr. ties will re sent the defence of O'Laughlin ; and on Monday, Payne and Atzerottfs counsel present their deform°. Mr, Ewing wilt then follow up in behalf of Spangler and Arnold. Judge Holt will present the final aro.- merit on behalf of the Government on Saturday nest; and after that the Commission will render their decision, which will be transmitted, sealed, to the rrooldent. POSITION OP JOHN Mimi Sons.—The editor of the Washington Chronicle has had an interview with this gentleman, in which the latter defined the poehion he holds in regard to Virginia. Whilst Mr. Botts does not approve of the Alexander con stitution, which, he gays, was formed by eleven men and adopted by some four or five hundred votes, still, as Mr. Plerpont was elected governor under the constitution of 1851, he recognizes him as legiti mately exerelBll2g the functions of Ids office He admits the legality Of the people of Western Vie. girds in establishing a new loyal government, and approves their course Mao doing. Whilst he would prefer to hive the old State reconciled, yet he re regards the question as finally settled. Although Mr. Botts would have preferred to see slavery In that State gradually abolished, yet, the war has set tled that question, and he acquiesces in that result, and thinks that the people throughout the State will do the same. Mr. Botts has no affinity with the class of men who have been reinstated in power In' Rich mond by General Patrick, and, he detests Copper heads and rebels as much as the most orthodox Re publican. The Die Drape Jlocarine. Mr. John Brightei organ, the Manchester Ea' ant. iner, came to hand with our last mail. It contains the following, which may be regarded as a eignifi cant hint to the French Government, and an honest, impartial, and outsroken estimate of its, conduct with thgillt to Mexico : The sudden close of the American war has warned the Emperor Maxuumee.er tee ....watts of patting his house in order. Re has not taken the Warta a minute too soon. The "emigration movement" as It Is called, but which might more truly be called the " spontaneous invasion movement," has subsided in New York, but it represents a sentiment deeply rooted ID the American mind, and which. if re. MEOW today, may aping up again to morrow With all the stronger lorce. The downfall of the IJontede raoy .has inspired Juarez with fresh hopes. Rio partisans are exerting themselves in the northern provinces of Mexico, where they have lately achieved some successes. The defeat Of Maximilian's Belgic allies, at Taccambaro, has spread a painful Impres sion among our neighbors. It is Clear that it the now imperial throne is to be maintained fresh levies must be raised in Europe, while Marshal Ratline and the French army cannot be allowed to leave just y Et. Meanwhile, the Mexican question mit which exposes us to some danger. if the United States Government should show a disposition to enforce the Monroe doctrine, we shall hear again of the ar rogance and insolence which maracterize detnoora- Mee ; and as we have, unfortunately, an unsettled tmaunderstanding with the United States on the Alabama claims it Is just Within the range of poti. sibility that circumstances may arise in which an attempt would be made to resuscitate the Anglo- French alliance, and make it available for trans atlantic objects!. Mad as such a project would be, It is not mad to open our eyes betimes to the chance of having it put before us as a sound piece of states roansbip Earl Russell has said some injudioious thiegs during the last four years, and not the least injuoiolous was his intimation that Great Britain and France were agreed in the policy to be pursued on both aides of the Atlantic. The Emperor Na poison has tried hard to inveigle us into the pitfall of joint action on American affairs, and the time May come when our active support will seem to af ford him the last hope of escaping without (Hamner and damage from his Mexican adventure. Against this peril our best safeguard Is that the people should be well Informed upon the facts and the prin ciples which relate to the Mexican question. At the threshold of this question lies the Monroe doctrine, respecting which the prevalent views are somewhat hazy. In in course of years that doe. tribe has become an article of faith with the Ameri can people. The New York papers invoke it rather wildly In support of all sorts of pretensions; but, as understood by the government, and by all who pretend to any political influence, it has not changed frrin what It was declared to be by the authority whose name it bears. The Monica dextrine is the doctrine of non-Inter vention, as defined by Mr. J. S. Mill ; but, instead of applying it to all the world, as Mr. Mill thinks we ought to do, the Americans confine its applica tion to America. On the platform of that doctrine the Americans declare that if any European power shall interfere in the concerns of any people on the American continent, "for the purpose of oppressing them or controlling in any other manner their desti ny," such act of interference will be regarded as „ unfriendly" toward the United States. There can be no question as to the soundness of this doctrine, and none at all as to its falling within the proper competence of the United Staten govern. matt, or, indeed, of any government. When one nation ehooses to interfere by force of arms In the concerns ot another people, any third nation has the right to step in and say, " We went perailt It." They have not the duty, but the right, to do this if they please. And If ever en occasion arose when this right might be most rightfully exercised, It was when the Emperor of the French determined to put down the republican form of government In Mexico, and set up an empire in its stead; when he deter mined to drive Benito Juarez, the freely elected president of Mexico, from power; to turn the preside'', tial chair into a throne, and MAIM& throne with an imperial underagfiong Europe. (treat Britain and Spain joined the emperor in an armed demon• titration against Mexico, but it was for a swine and en honest object. The government of Mesita bad seen /it to suspend ell payments to the national creditors, many of them British and French subjects, and we went to exact payment. As soon 'as we discovered chat the emperor of the French meant to conquer the country, and change the form of government, we threw up our share in the enter• prise, and left him to himself. Spain did the same. The emperor's conduct amounted to a shameful breach of faith towards this country, andif we had tbOnght fit to declare war against him on behalf of Pdexico—in other words, to Intervene to put down intervention, however inexpedient such -a polies , might have been—it would not have been wrong. Our Interests did not require this, and, therefore, we simply showed Otir disapproval by Weaning our hands of the whole business. The emperor's conduct in Me xico was niftrlU UnSainpUleirB and imntorat. uac anc - of—mmre - nlyft•hanata am.; or power winch sonctimes recoil upon the actors. The American war was raging. The South bade fair to achieve its In. dependence. The emperor probably thought that we might be induced top-In him in reeognizing Its Independence. The United States scorned utterly powerless to resent the Insult or redress the wrong. The emperor was mistaken. His saga- city was at fault. His ambition and. foithtessaess were not to pass unpunished, and he is now trembling with apprehension. We know nothing of the totem bons of the United States Government. All we want to impress upon the mind of the nubile is that the emperor is clone responsible far the great crime which has been done in Mexico, and that, coins what may, we should only be sanctioning that crime if we took any steps to save him from its consequences.

What Issues are Before the Country SENATOR SHERMAN, OF OHIO A t a large public meeting in CaroWyllie, Ohio, on the 10th inst., trenator Sherman made a spas& on public affairs, from whioh we extract the following portions: RESPONSIBILITY OD THE UNION PARTY. The real reaponsibillty for political events now rests upon the Union party, or, as I now prefer to call it, the Republican party. Nall:Les are not very material, bat still we nave our choice. That party which, during the war, resolutely maintained the right and duty of the National Government to suppress the rebellion by force of arms, is the party I mean. This party was founded mainly upon the Republican party, whew opposition to slavery was always avowed, and Whose members have main. Wined that the end of the war is the end of slavery. It matters little what motive unites us when we are agreed. It Is certain that we do agree upon certain fundamental dogmas and these are : 1. That the Union must Le preserved. This is Jacksonian doctrine. 2, That slavery must be destroyed. This is Bo- publican sentiment. 3. And this Is Andy Johneon'a declaration ! That traitors must be punished. [Great Cheering ] Thece we regard as ne longer dehatabie. The mode and manner of enforcing them, and all the complications growing out of the war, we may de• bate about, but these are fundamental. No man can rightfully be said to belong to the party in power, who does not admit them, and who will not act upon them. Let ns, then, accept the responsibility of our peel Lion, ace, while openly avowing our leading prin. clples, inquire what other questions will probably enter Into the Cowing Canvass. It le obvious to every one that financial questions will be far more imporlant that, heretofore. Formerly our national revenue was almost exclusively derived from a very moderate duty or tax calmported goods. As this was easily levied in err commercial cities, and mostly in New York, and mainly on enlace of luxury, the people scarcely perceived the tax, and never left It as a burden. The only dispute was, not as to the amount to be levied, but as to the mode of it, as to how much or how little discrimination should be made in favor of our domestic industry. As all national taxes were payable la gold and silver, we had in Congress, before the war, nothing to do with questions relating to paper money, to banes, Or currency. As our national debt was insignificant—scarcely equal to one year's In come—we bad no occasion to discuss the forms of loses and the mode of negotiating them. In common with you, I wish our financial con dition Was as faVOrrinle as before the war hut, without accepting the gage of battle thrown down by the rebels, we could not have preserved our country, and we could not have Conducted -theft war without debt, taxes, paper money, and all their holdouts. When , you pay taxes, charge them to the rebels. All that you can ask of your agents is. that they apply the national resources in the great work of suppressing the rebellion in the way toast burdensome to the people. And upon this point lam wire our success has been as OMB pieta as the triumph of our armies. At the begin nieg of the war, our neighbors across the water, and some of our neigbborsabout home, profillecioil finan cial ruin, bankruptcy, repediation, and anarchy. Copperheads in Congress prophecied that green. backs would be bought by the acrd. It now takes quite a pile of gold to buy a Mail lot of greenback?. Our bends never sold below par after the first six months-of the war, and our currency maintained its eneial relation to gold fully as well as the Bank of England notes did durlog the war with Napoleon. Our credit never sank so low as at the tine of the Chicago Convention, and then it was because the ac tion of that convention and of the Sons of Liberty created a fear that an open, armed revolt would occur in the loyal States. I have a letter from a distinguished statesman in England, well known tor his Mandrel ability, who says that the wonderld success of our financial policy has demonstrated our power as a nation as fully as the exhibition of our pliyeical strength. And yet this policy was but a succession of expert meets merely adopted from time to time to meet beinedinte and pressing wants. At first we resorted to loans in the usual way, through baukers in New York, atd in a short time exhausted Vocal. Then rolonwed the suspension of spode payments. This was a critical point. Gold being hoarded, there was no currency except State-bank notts„.and these were only of local credit, and issued by 1,800 differ out corporations. To use these as a national (sta rer ay was dangerous and, indeed , disastrous, He inen(' notes of the dangerous States were then antho. reeve and issued. They were made receivable for loans and taxes. As the amount luoreased they de. predated in market value. Creditors were not hound to receive them, and any man might demand gold. This would soon have destroyed their value. Then came the question of making them a legal tender, This was indispensably necessary, and was done, though fiercely clamoeed against. Thai Was established a national currency, but it was a Currency founded solely upon national credit. The history of assignees in France, and our eon• tinental money, were fatal examples of this kind of money, but a worse feature was in the fact that State banks swelled the currency by bank ing upon legal-tenders. This led to the establish Went ol our national , banking system, by which pri vate capital was combined with national credit. When this system was adopted, we were able to curtail the Issues of State banks, and, as I confi dently believe, will secure their ultimate abolition. All these were measures to establish a currency, but this Was not enough. We had to raise vast Snits. A currency once established, enabled the people to lend us money. Tne admirable system of popularizing our loans is familiar to dependt it la due to candor to say that lie mime ed very Audi upon private enterprise. To estaolish a cur rency and borrow money was not sufficient. We had to convince the people that this money must be refunded with interest. Than came taxation 111 all its multiplied forms. The duties on imported goods were largely increased ; whisky, tobacco, and other Comforts and luxuries were heavily taxed, and each Citizen was called upon to pay his Share. I do not Claim that this system it perfeot, but I do claim that it is productive and is not burdentieme. Such is the financial system adopted by this Ad ministration. This remarkable fact appears, that though the war has dereanded one thousand mil lions of dollars a year—a sum far greater than any government ever before expended in the same time—yet the money has been supplied. Another fact equally remarkable, stated to me by the Seam tary ot the Treasury within a few days, is that by the first of July next every demand upon the Tres, stay will have been paid and canceled. OUR NATIONAL DBBT It is true, rellow.citizenii, that the war 'eaves Us with a very large public debt, about, probably less, when all accounts are adjusted, than $2,000,800,001. But it is equally true, that upon the basis of our present tax laws, this debt will be paid off by our present population in twenty.Svo years, and, as I believe, without oppressing any branch of industry. When we come to retied that our wealth doubles In ten years ' and our population In thirty years, that hundreds of thousands of emigrants come an t nally to help us pay the debt, that we have un developed resources almost without a parallel, this vast debt ceases to frighten us. The debt of the United States in 1816 was $127 : 000.000, or 14.87 per cent. on the o total property 01 the people. Now the $3 000 000,000 is only 15 per cent. on the property of the loyal States, and we mean the South shall help us pay it. every dollar of that former debt was paid in less than twenty years, and Ite Were quarreling about suet custrietitiOn MUM be maga of the public lands. In 1818 the debt of Great Britain was over $000,010,000, or $218.20 per head, 40 4-10 per, cent. on the spgregate property of the empire. New it is only 12 per cent. of the property. When we re member that our population doubles in every ton years, and our wealth more than doubles, by reason not only of the industry of our people, bat by new discoveries of the natural sources of wealth, such as our mines of silver and gold, and OW petroleum wells, this debt should not disturb us in the least. I do not wish to underrate the burden of this debt. It will have to be paidin taxes, and these will some• times come hard, but they are the price of our nationality. Every patriotic citizen will pay them cheerfully, and those who are not so patriotic will Lave to pay them. It is certain that every dollar of this debt not only can, but will be paid. There are some incidental advantages of the public debt ; iris a bond of Union reaching to all classes of people. It is a convenient medium of exchange, a test or standard of the money market, as consols in Eng land, or routes in France. It is a secure deposit for trust funds—widows, children, colleges and so cieties—heretofore endangered by the private span latlen of IfUlbrdions and trustees. By registeriag the debt the principal is beyond danger 01 los t thud the interest promptly paid. A. portion of it will form the basis and security of our national carrenoy. The national bank notes are but another form of national debt. I§The disadvantages of a publio debt are That it Is a vast mortgage on the whole property of the nation, and must be paid,. prinolpal and inte rest, in taxes. The assessment and collection of taxes has always been the most difficult problem of civil society, and has caused more revelations than all other causes combined. The seourlty of the na• tional debt will enable wealthy citizens to preserve in families large Incomes and property, and thus perpetuate in iamilles gross inequalities of wealth. This Is always a great, evil in any society, but is guarded against, tosonie extent, by our laws, in the distribution of property. ERCONBTRUOTION-PREBDOX OP BLAUS A still more difficult class of questions iron out of the politiCal relations of the roost States, and their present unhappy condition. Oar brave SM. dlerS—and I am glad to see 50 many of them itire can tell you how desperate a resistance they met, and what fearful ravages they le3 behind. The young men of the Souta are in their graves. Those who had property are now Impoverished, and a new class is In possession. The slaves, upon whose labor their whole industrial fabric rested, are now free, and are working for themselves. °barred ruins mark the whole Country ; cities and towns are in ashes. Though the armed rebellion is crushed, the spirit of rebellion still lives. A population of old men and Children, and mothers and daughters mourning for dead husbands and sweethearts, and also four millions of freedmen, await the I%OOW struoting hand of the national Government. And upon the principles upon which this reconstruction shall be founded depend not only the lives and pro. petty of all there people, bat also depend our future national safety. Bet no man who nas his part to perform in settling these questions, satisfy his cou nting:* by a party cry, but let him think for him. self, under the light of the conscience implanted in him by Almighty God, and let him be charitable to those whose judgment leads them to a different con clusion. I cannot In the limit of a short speech enter upon an elaborate or even a brief discussion of these ques tions, but will only state certain conclusions ae to the different, classes of the Southern population. And brat, as to the former Slaves of the South, we promised them their freedom, oy . every mode Op which one people may speak to another. We pro mised it by the proclamation of Mr. Lino°ln. hon orees twice ratified this proclamation, and the people, in two annual elections, have ratified It. These slaves have won their freedom by their n e votion to oar cause. They have, from the beginning, been true friends. They have borne our flag In battle. They have carried our arms. They have been slaugh tered for our cause. They have aided our sick and wounded. They have fed our soldiers when in pri son, and have guided their escape. They have per formed the humble offices of the camp and the hos pital. They never toceht against la They have relied upon Our promise, and have performed their part. Without them, and Without their presence as a weakness to the enemy, we might not have suc ceeded. By their simple faith in us, following our fleets and our armies, they have earned their free dom. The enemy koow and confess that an inevi table Incident of their overthrow is the freedom of the slave. I therefore conclude that we must se cure them their freedom beyond all doubt or perad• venture, and maintain it against every danger in any form of reconstruction that may be adopted. WHO MALL VOTE IN THE SOUTH / win you, in addition, authorize them to vote? Will you invest them with all the rights and 1001• dente of citizenship 1 Have you the power to do it under the Constitution of the United States ? It is perfectly Olear that, unless the powers of the rebel States are changed or affected by their rebellion, Congress cannot fix the qualification of a voter with in a State. The Constitution provides but for three elections—of President, of Senators, and of Repre sentatives. The President is chosen by electors ap pointed in such manner as the Legislature of the State may elect. Senatont are chosen by the Leg's. latureo of the respective States, and members are chosen by the people of the Several States, and the electors of each State shall have the qualifiOatiODO requisite for electors Of the moot numerous branch of the State Legislature. If anything is clear, it is that the framers of the Constitution. meant Mat each State should prescribe MAO should vote. The only limitation upon this power Is the duty of the nation al Government to maintain in each State a republi can form of government. But again the question recurs, is not all this changed in a State where the voters have VOlUtl. tartly- renounced their aliegiance to the General Government 1 Can such a State renounce all Its duties, and yet inapt upon its rights I It is gene• rally admitted, and hi certainly very clear, that the United States may punish a traitor by depriving him of his life, his property, and his franchise. It one, why not all Who are equally guilty 1 If the THE PRESS.-PHILADELPHIA:, FRIDAY, JtTNE 16, 1865. entire Vetting _population have openly revoltac againat their allegiance, It la absurd to say that we have power to" ill them, and yet have no power to prevent their voting. Again we out punish the counterfeiter of our coin with diafranohiaement, and yet not 00 pUlgial a traitor 1 If one, why not alit But it is said that the loyal people are left who can vote, It is a sad Mot, but a very true One, that the number of such people in the Southern States Would form a very narrow foundation for a repub• Dean government. North Carolina and Tennessee may contain enough anon. President Johnson intends to try the OMNI/tent in those States, but 1 fear he will nod the spirit of rebellion too deep-rooted in those who have taken the oath to make them good citizens. How is it when you come to South Carolina and Pdie Diego pl ? It 16 said, establish in these a military government. Well, for a time, that may do, but It is expensive and contrary to the spirit of our institattons. If we can put negrOlogiments there and give them bayo nets, why Can't we give them votes ? Both are weapons of offence and defense. Votes are 'Mealier and better. Both are part of the military necessity put upon us by the recedion. Both are unpleasant to the rebels, but medicines are not usually savory. I conclude, there re, on this subject of negro voting, that in all States who can claim their tall rights under the Constitution, it is a question for the State, and that in revolted States it is a question of policy and military government. to be deluded by the national authorities until the State is rally re stored to Ito former condition. In some of the Southern States I would leave them under military rule until they provide the only sure security for the future—that the negroes should have their snare in reconstruction, as they have borne their Share in fighting. Negro voting may not suit our natural prejudices of caste. They may be Ignorant, docile, easily led, and not Safely trusted With political power ; bet if you admit all this, they have been tree and faithful among the faithless. They have joined in putting down the rebellion ; and now to place them at the mercy of those they have helped us to subdue, to de ny them all political rights—to give them freedom, but leave them entirely subject to laws framed by rebel masters—is an sot of injustice against vadat humanity revolts. Suppose you deny them suffrage, what then? The Southern States gain by the freedom of their slaves fourteen new members of Congress and as many electoral votes. Not threellftha but five-fifths are eounted. It you give the same men who revolted this increased political power, what safety have yOU'l Suppose ten years ago they had this additional power, Kansas would have been a slave State this day, and, they would have had ample political pow er to subvert your government without a resort to arms. We must have security for the future. All the evils that I perceive may arise from a mixed voting population, are insignificant compared with the only two alternatives—the restoring to rebels vast political power, and the danger and vast ex pense of military governments. Aa fur the people of the Southern States, we can now regard them as conquered rebels, but it is the highest wisdom of conquerors to be magnanimous and generous. There people and their descendants Must live with us, and form part of the body politic. Our true policy is to heal and not widen the breach made by war. Sufftsient security should be taken for future pearl!, and sufficient punishment tostamp the rebellion as a crime, and teen pardon and am nasty for the i tipple. All this, under our °mato. t10n,16 Invested in the President, and we can Deady trust it tp Andy Johnson, Re knows who to punish and who to pardon ; and allow me to say that you will bnd in him qualities of head and heart that make him fit to till the chair of oar late beloved chieftain, Abraham Lincoln. I sat by the side of Mr. Johnson for two years in the Senate Chamber. I think I know him well—his habits, his character, - the temper of his mind—and I assure von he will deserve the high honors and melte d power now rest. lug upon him. THU NATION'S ENNEBAO FOBS There Is and will be during our generation a Class of people whom We Mist never forget. Their pre senee Will Constantly remind es of the perils and sacrifices of the war. I mean one wounded and Os abled soldiers, and the widows and orphans of those who fell. The officers ano soldiers will soon mingle with our people in the old employments of peace. Their recollections will be the basis Of our history, and will be taught to their children and grand* children. They will be rewarded by offices and honor. But those Who have been disabled need more. They should not only be the honored pen• stoners of the General Government, but elerywhe re should receive the homage, respect, attention, and aid of all good citizens. Tne hand, not of charity, but of affeotion, should ever be open to them. Ladies, you have honored your sex and our country by your organized aid to our. soldiers ; now adopt the widows and orphans of the dead soldiers as your sisters and your children. You rich farmers, with your teeming barns and moat beautiful land, take into your homes the Children or those who have died in your service; adopt them, sustain them. Let them be taught to reverence the martyrdom of their fathers. Let us weave all the memories of this war, all its sacrifices, all its glories, its battle fields and marches, into one great bond cf patri• otisni, so that no citizen will hereafter ever dare to raise his hand in rebellion against his country, and so that we may visit with overwhelming power any foreign nation that may seek to interfere with oar ~progress or our policy. The Wars of the Amazons. ASSAULT AND. BATTERY cuss IN THIS MARINE COURT, NEW TOES—TWO YOUNG WOMEN PARTIES TO THE SUIT—DABS DISMISSED, OWING TO IN. The customary quietude of the Marine cotirt has been interrupted by the trial of a female assault and battery case, which created an unusual amount of interest. The plaintiff and defendant are both young women of Considerable personal attraction. The courtroom was crowded with spectators, and scores of the legal gentry put their briefs under their arms and waited to see and hear. Miss Fannie Christopher, the plaintiff, is very girlish in appearance—a foot which proved rather unfortunate for.. her, as will be seen by the sequel. She was fashionably attired. She accuses the de. fondant, Maly.. Hill, with having assaulted her in her (Fannie's) own house on a certain day in May, without cause, and also with having inflicted divers severe and permanent matches and soars on her person. The defendant is rather older than the plaintiff, and more attractive In appearance. She was dress ed dafihingly, and was attended by a female cons. patch he c :fn.

A general sensation followed this announcement, Miss Christopher jumped up from the stand In a state of the greatest excitement, while NEW Hill laughed with an air of triumph, and received the congratulations of her friends. Counsel for plaintiff. If your Honor please, I Wish to announce that I shall have a guardian ap• pointed for the plaintiff, and then oontlartie the suit. Court. Very well, sir.

To day we print the reply of Major General Stoneman to the same report: Rrioxvrtam, Tenn., Jane 4,1865, Bon. Edwin AL Stanton, Secretary of War: • I have just seen in print the letter of General Sherman to Lieutenant General Grant, of Apri/ 25, in which appears the following words ; Mr. Stan ton, in stating that my orders to General Stoneman were likely to remit In the escape of Mr. Davis to Mexico or Europe, is in deep error, Stoneman was not at Salisbury, but had gone back to Stateaville. Davis was beyond him. By turning toward me he was approaching Davis ; and had he joined me, as ordered, I would have had a mounted force greatly needed for that and other purposes," &o. General Sherman, directly, and by implication in these re marks and assertions, dote me great lejustice, and makes assertions without a knowledge of dream stances, and which are not borne out by fads. Gen. Thomas has assured you that I obeyed orders strictly, and 1 Consider It a duty I owe to myself to state that I am ready to prove and show, I think, to your satisfaction : First, that had I obeyed Gen. Slier. man's orders, Davis would, in all probability, hale escaped. Second, that, had not Sherman's orders proclaiming that peace had been restored from the Potomac to the Rio Grande," been received when they were, Davis would, most likely, have been captured by my cavalry in April, such Was the disposition 1 had made of tte command for that and other purposes ; and third, that, had I not, after ward, by direction, paid no attention to Gan. Suer man's orders, Davie, in all human probability, WOUld have escaped to the Mississippi river 1111:2t0. leeted. The object of Gen. Sherman, when he wrote the letter, was evidently to throw the responsibility Of tbe escape of Davis upon myself; and Inasmuch as his letter has been published to the world, and the poison has been imbibed by the public mind, I have to ask that this statement may be given to the pub lie as the antidote.

After this, new books will have to be inserted, forty dis tinct and distinctive indexes completed, and the Volume put into type. This will probably be done in the course of 1868. The work, when complete, will be indispensable to every man who has the slightest pretension to literary taste or education. Ticknor St Fields are about opening a store at New York, as a depot for the Atlantic Monthly, the North American Review, and Our Young Folks, and for the sale, by retail only, of the various books on their list as publishers.

The glorification of Booth, in that remarkable narrative, is pointed out, and the article concludes thus : " We do not care to carry further this mockery of honest reporting, though it is at the closing moments of the wretched assassin that the New York gentleman most distinguishes or disgraces himself. The body was paten board ship at last, and 'the broad Potomac shores saw this skeleton ship flit by, and the bloody sun 'threw gashes and blots of unhealthy light along the silver surface.'

It is understood that the Booth arti cle, thus commented upon, was written by Mr. George Alfred Townsend, formerly of Philadelphia- In a later article, on "The Empty White H.ouse," by the same reporter, it is said of Mr. Lincoln, "His domestic life Was like a parlor of night-time, lit by the equal grate of his genial and uniform kindness.'

We take from the Paris correspondent of a Lon. don paper the following singular episode in the carter of the late Marshal Magnan. It will some day furnish a very good Scene for the mole-dramas which are promised in the future upon the career of Louis Napoleon. Our dramatic scribes ought to pass a vote of thanks to WI for preservhag it. Among the promoters of the troheme for the overthrow of Louis Philippe's Government, in 1840, was a retired major of cavalry named de Meeonan, who did not yield to M. de Persigny himself in zeal and activity. M. de Dieeonan had boon plaoed on tile retired list in 1838. lie protested against this bitterly. He ob tained, however, no satisfaction, and it was affirmed that the resentment he felt against thoee who had removed him from active service threw him into the party of Louis Bonaparte. He thenceforth beoame one 01 the most devoted and persistent of thePrinotds, emifsaries. In the early part of 1840 Mesonan re.' newed hie acquaintance with General Megrim, who commanded the sub-division at Life. After the failure of the Boulogne enterprise, General Diagram was called as a witness for the prOSSOntion. After giving a summary of the frequent conversa. tion they had together, General Magnan oontinned thus "Mesonan left me, but returned afterwards seve ral times, to Lille. He called one day at my house. He did not see me, as I was absent on one of my quarterly inspections. Those constant comings and goings began to rouse my suspicion. I asked the commandant, Cabour, what M. Meson= could be doing BO often at Lille. He answered .that there Was a lady In the case, and I believed him. To wards the end of June Mesonan again returned to Lille. He called to see me, and I invited him to dinner. I had also invited, for the same day, Capt. Guerenil, of the both of the line, who had come to Lille as a witness in a case then before the court martial. The two gentlemen, my wife and I, went together after dinner to walk on the esplanade. My wife and I were to go at eight o'clock to the pro , feet's, and I took leave of Mesonan and Gneroull, who were to quit Lille the next morning. Before parting With them on the esplanade, Mesonan gave me a little book, which he requested me to read. I thought it wee something about his Own affairs, I put it in my pocket, and we proceeded to the pre lecture. The following day, Mesonan, Who, I thought, had left. Lille, entered my , cabinet, baying been announced, as usual, by my aide.de. camp. I thought he looked embarrassed, and I asked him why he had not left as he intended. He answered that he had a letter to give me. From whom V I asked, Read it, general,' he Bald. He then handed me the letter, which was ad dressed To the Commandant Mesons.' I returned It to him, saying, You are mistaken, the letter is for you, and not for me.' lie answered, No, no, it is for you.' I opened the letter, and read the flrat sentences, which I think I perfectly reoollect, They ran thus; My dear Commandant : It fa important that you Bee, without any delay, the general in ques tion. You know he is a man of action, and I have made a note that he shall one day be Marshal of France. Yen can offer him from me 100#101., and also 300.000 f. more, 'which I will lodge in the nada of any Paris banker he may name, in tbe event of his losing his command.' I stopped short at this, for I was bursting with Indignation. I turned the leaf and saw that the letter was signed 'Louis Napoleon P I returned the letter to Mesonan, telling him that I thought I had Inspired him with sufficient esteem to prevent him from daring to make me such a proposal ; that my motto was,'Fads cequo doie, advienne qua pourra fi that I d never violated soy oath, even in 1815, nur served under the First Restoration, and had become a notary's clerk from having been a captain in the Imperial Guard and officer of the Legion of Honor; that my veneration for the memory of the Emperor would never make me violate my oath;.that he, Mesonan, must be mad to mix himself Up with the nephew's plots, and that the Bonaparte cause was ridiculous and lost, I added, 'lf I were base enough; despicable enough, to accept the 400,0e0f from the Prince,l should be only robbing him ; for , if to morrow I pe. Rented myself to the garrison of Lille, and held to it any language but that or fidelity to Its duty and its oath, theyoungest corporal would take me by the collar and arrest me, so strong is the sentiment of duty and honor In the army. I also said to Mese non, ought to arrest you and forward you to Pa rte; but It is unworthy of me to denounce the man whom I have received in my house, and at my ta ble. I will nob do so. QUit this place; you have yet time ; abandon your plots, and by , doing so pre serve the esteem of your comrades; and let the army remain in ignorance of what you have - uttelopted to do.' Mesonan, appear ing desirous -- of continuing the oonversetton, I opened the door el my cabinet and put him out, saying, ' Go and get - yourself arrested elsewhere.' When dismissing him I promised that if he quitted Line, and it he did not return, I should take no notice of his infamous proposals, as the affair re lated to me personally ; but I should act otherwise if one of my subordinates oame with a 00mplaint against him. lie told me that he was leaving Lille the same evening, and would not again return. When he went away I recollected the book he had given me the evening before. I told ney servant to bring it, as I had left it in my , pocket, and I saw that it had for title " Lettres de Londree' eent :or Colonel Peer of the 4th Cuirassiers, to whom I banded it, requesting him to find out wheth er similar productions had not found their way among his men, and show it to the other colonels tor the same purpose. The work was, in fact, Circu lated the day before in the barracks of the 46th of the line. Lieut. Colonel Sallayx, who was then in temporary command of the corps, came to give me an account of the matter. I ordered hirn to Send in a report, which I addreSsed, on the 26th of June, to the minister of Wier." Such was the evidence given by General Magoon in miso The note made in the Princies tableta, as stated in his letter to Mesonan, that General Mag i:ran was even then set down as Marshal of France at some future day, seems prophetic. The general may have received with a derisive smile the promise or a marshal's baton for helping Louis Napoleon to the Imperial throne twenty five years ago, but who can control his fate I General Pdagnan little thought that the same baton would, eleven years later, be his reward for the same ant. M. Mesonan was sentenced to fifteen years' detention for his snare in the Boulogne plot. He wee Bet at liberty by the Provisional Government in March, 1848. He attached himself once more to the fortunes of Prince Louis Napoleon, who once more employed him - during the presidency in divers private We ston ; and atter the coup dlefat he was elected deputy to the Legislative Corps for I/crimper. Poor Mar shal Dingman must have often smiled when he re membered the contemptuous terms In which he , •pelre of the " Bonaparte, cause" to Meeonan at Lille in 1840.

The New York Times thus reports It : The weather was extremely favorable, and a large crowd of spectators was gathered around the balAield. The Union Clue mustered in tall loran, and presented one of the but nines we have yet seen them play in a match. The Athletics also had a good nine on hand, though one Of their players was absent, but an able substitute re placed him. The contest opened very favorably for the Unions, their holding being very snare and bat ting good, the figures being three to nought in their laver at the close of the second innings. In the three following innings, however, the display oi batting made by the diadelphinflS led to their scoring a total of no less than fifteen runs, the Unions adding eleven to their score In the same three invlngs, the totale at the close of the fifth standing fifteen to fourteen, the Philadelphian having the lead. The contest now became extremely exolting, and the result of the next Innings played only In creases the Interest in the match. In the seventh inning the Athletics batted splendidly for a score of nine runs, and this lead rather demoralized the Unions, for they felt off In their play afterward, the final result being a Wen•earned victory for the Ath letics by a total score of thirty-one to twenty-one. It was decided* , the best-played game of the Series, and a handsome display of the beauties of the game by the Athletics, who, one and all, played be smilfully throughout.

A NRW THEATitiI IN BOBTON.—The Boston Ng is anxious that a new theatre should be built in Boston, not one of those large, griudy.looking con cerns, but a "little" theatre, where one can feet perfectly at home. The Post says : We have spacious theatres already, capable of presenting imposing spectacles and operas is the most effective manner. What we propose Is some. thing in just the other direction ; a neat little nest of a place, in which ladles will scarcely realize that the) have lefttheir own parlors, where the sating must of necessity be quiet, subdued, and natural, and where choice theatrical companies, instead of fiery dramatic stare and comets, will appear for the purpose of diffusing a truly refined pleasure. LARGE PEREMPTORY BALE OP OARPSTIRGB Tam DAY.—The attention el dealers is requested to the superior assortment of fine ingrain, cottage, and hemp carpetingS, to be peremptorily sold, by catalogue, on four months' credit, commencing at eleven &clock prealsaly, by Sohn B. Myers & Co., auctioneers, Nos. 232 and 23t Market street. FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL The Market yesterday for Government loans was rather weak, and the previous day's prices were scarcely maintained. The 1881 s were quiet and without sales to any extent. The 6-203 sold at 103, and the 10 4013 at 96—the latter being a decline of 1. The news from London respecting 5 20 bonds loads to the opinion that the price there may decline, and that Many will be returned to this country for sale, notwithstanding the low price of discounts in Lon don, and the excess Of loanable funds. The con tinuance of failures among large mercantile firms in Great Britain and its dependencies is decreasing the number of needy borrowers to an extent which is adding materially to the surplus of loan able capital seeking employment In London. The Railroad Iht was generally firmer. Reading closed steady at 49% ; Pennsylvania Railroad at 5538 ; Norristown at 64%, and Catawissa at 13% for the common stook, and 2734 for the preferred, the latter being an advanee of 1%. For Bank stocks" the demand continues active, and we note further Belts of Girard at 52 ; Commercial at 50, and Par tners' and Mechanical at 118 U, an advance of 190 was bid for North Ameriea ; 49 for Commercial ; 28 for rdeohaniee , 46 for Penn Township; 51 for Girard ; 2935 for Manufacturers' and Mechanics' ; 67 for City, and 36 for ConSolidation.

When the history of the present rebellion comas to be written up fully ; when statesmen and warriors shall receive the laudations of a people snatobed from the arms of an overpowering rebellion, a finan cier will not be forgotten whose only aim and desire seems to have been to sustain the credit of the na tiOn under all droitrustancee. The darkest day of the rebellion round Jay Cooke sa hopeful—probably not quite so Oheerful—as ever, and his efforts have created a confidence in many an instance -where there.was but doubt and despair. The present ea. riee of 740 notes will soon be finished up. Now that the bonds can be bad immediately.upon payment of subscriptions, there will be an increased demand. The following description of the falling of a tree appears in the financial Columns of the New York JOUrnal of Commerce: " There was a crash this morning in Wall street, which created quite a sews. tierl. a venerable sycamore tree, scantily Covered with foliage, Which has stood sentinel near the curb. stone in front of No. SS for many years, fell against the house opposite, causing a great destrnotion of glass, and making an easy ascent to the third.story windows. Workmen were busily engaged for Bove. ral hours with axes, lopping off the branches, but the trunk bridged the street for a large part of the day, obstructing a portion of the travel. Not a single tree is now left growing in this thoroughfare, and there remains nothing green in Wall street but the outside speeelefers.l2 Drexel & Co.
