The Civilization of the Continent;
As the smoke and confusion of the great
Vat, for the Union clear away, and the
Whole framework of aouthern society be
-comes exposed to view, we find in its de
vlorable condition reasons for hoping that
-out of all the evils, losses, and suffer
ings of our bloody conflict, substantial be
nefits will accrue to future generations.
We were forced to take up arms as an im
erative act of self-preservation. Our hu
manitarian impulses and our horror of
slavery were not sufficiently powerful to
incite us to the tremendous exertions neces
sary to achieve victory. However strong
our convictions on the issues which were
made the pretexts for rebellion, we were
not prepared to enforce them at the point
of the bayonet. We rushed to the rescue
of an imperilled country, and it was in
- vindicating the great principle of self-go
vernment that we were compelled by the
loeic of events, not merely to subdue se
cession, but to achieve a much more sweep
ing and conclusive triumph for the great
objects which the traitors antagonized,
than the most sanguine friends of freedom
could have anticipated a few short years
dolestding the republic
against the swords of its
rescued it from a devastating and fatal
policy, only less dangerous and destructive
than disunion itself.
. _
-The long controversy, whAgihuifiy-- re
_ 11.4.QA1PhelliniliitiTtinent of arms, involved
one of, the mightiest issues that ever divi
ded mankind. It was no less than the
Civilization of a continent—the dominance
of free or slave institutions over one of the
largest and fairest portions of the habitable
globe. The North asked comparatively
little. It would have been contented with
a fair chance for free labor in the Territo
ries. But because it insisted on this, the
pro-slavery leaders intensified the iniquity
of an infamous purpose by striving to
achieve it through the ruin of republican
liberty. Bad as was their end, the means
chosen to gain it were still worse. They
were like robbers, who, intent upon the
plunder of a house, resolve to commit mur•
der to acquire the coveted booty. Men
could do nothing worse to provoke the
anger of an outraged God. The end is
a striking proof of Divine interposition in
human affairs, and of the effective punish
ment which even in this life overtakes the
'wicked, and makes their iniquitous designs
serve good purposes. The attempt to de
secrate our Territories with slavery has re
sulted in its overthrow in all the States.
The efforts to render the North the prey of
anarchy and disintegration have eventuated
in extending the area of free institutions
over the whole nation, and in the establish
ment of the authority of the Federal Go
vernment upon a firmer basis than it ever
before rested.
In the settlement of Colorado, Utah, Ne
vada, New Mexico, Arizona, the Indian
Territory, and the vast regions yet open to
Northern emigration in Texas, we are to
lave no new border-ruffian warfare. Free
labor will enter unchallenged and unop
posed into the possession of her fair heri
tage ; and a blooming future, crowned with
all the blessings and glories that adorn and
enrich the free States will await our young
offspring, instead of the desolation and
barrenness that characterize the footprints
of slavery. l'here is hope, tOoe*.for the old
• * ' N l . ,•.•dino- and bat
tle-scarred as they are,
..clifferinga, rightly understood, are living
proofs of the baneful tendencies of the ill,
stitution they have cherished with blind
-affection ; and impressive warnings of the
dangers to them and to its that have been
escaped by making freedom universal. A
curse follows slavery as inevitably as the
seasons succeed each other in their ap
pointed order. It blights and blackens the
nations that tolerate it, and debases alike
master, slave, and the free white non-slave
holders, who are taught by it to despise the
honest and honorable toil that alone can
make them useful citizens.
In the North we have, to a mode
rate extent, passed through the ordeal
that now awaits the South. We freed
our slaves. They were not very nu
inerous, it is true, and we resorted to
gradual instead of immediate emancipa
tion. But, despite these important dif
ferences, the results in the Middle*. and
thew England States are too marked a
'vindication of free labor to admit a.donbt
of its beneficial tendencies, or of its power
to soon repay, in superior production, any
temporary losses and inconveniences that
may result from the sudden disruption of
an odious system. _Practice and theory
both prove the immeasurable superiority
of freedom, if - we look merely to evidences
of industrial capacity, and ignore all the
momentous moral, social, and political
aspects of this great question. The census
reports of the agricultural and manu
facturing products, wealth, and popula
tion of our free and slave States, in
the aggregate, or the marked contrast
between Pennsylvania and Virginia, Ohio
end Kentucky, are amply sufficient to
show what a fearful :drawback slavery
has proven to the progress of our country.
In the South the slave-owner alone is
deeply and sincerely interested in promot
ing prosperity. His slaves gladly avail
themselves of all chances to shirk .labor,
to avoid responsibility, and to diminish'
production. The poor white men eke ont
a subsistence as best they may, by trait
with the negroes and by such arts:as 're
quire the smallest modicum of the labor
they are taught to despise. In free Society
all; save a few drones, are actively- and
persistently engaged, - year after Year, in
the one great problem of employing. to the
best advantage the strength, talents and
capacities with which Provident''ifi:s en.
dowed them. It is this radical direrence
.
of purpose and will, striking-down to the
roots of society and permeating all i ts rami
fications, that makes the rocky hills of New
England bloom with psi etual verdure,
while whole counties and Stites of the
South are becoming barren. It is this dif
ference which created the superiority that
crowned our arms with 'victory in a gigan
tic offensive war. It is this difference
which will in the future compensate the
Republic for the havoc, losses, and debt
caused by the rebellion. When in all our
Territories, and in all the slave States, we
have the whole population at work, with
head and hands ; when white and black vie
with each other in producing the' best
crops, and the best manufactures; when
the art of preserving and restoring the fer
tility of the soil attracts the same attention
it now receives in the North, even the em
bittered soldiers of secession will wonder
at the folly of their old love for slavery, and
-the Union will increase its wealth and pro
ductiveness with a rapidity that will glad
-den the hearts of its tax-payers and as
tonish the world.
The English Press on Jefferson Davis.
As none are so blind as those who will
not see, so none have so much disbelief ' s
those who are resolved to doe* John
:Bull, who gave credit to every little bit
Lof gossip, tittle-tattle, and slander against
Mr. lawcorm, will not accept
,as truth
any statement tending to unherolae Jav
a/swot; DAvis ; and this because Mr. GLAM.
STONE and i few other professional poll
ticians represented that he was founder
of the " new and great republic of the
Bouth." When the news of DA - vise cap
ture reached England, mention had to
be made of his attempt to escape in
his wife's garments ; but The Times, when
publishing the telegram, adroitly inter
polated a line to the effect that no one
believed the crinoline part of the story,
which was evidently 4lie invention of a
drunken trooper. That little trick was
perpetrated setae weeks ago, lit subset:lllord
accounts confirmed the crin me adventure.
Nevertheless, the Londotintustrated Yews,
a paper which circula,Ws very extensively
in this country, an which has been the
steady advocate oithe South, and the per
sistent assailant, of the Union—this pic
ture paper, on. the 10th of June, deli
berately' rePeated, with additions and va
riations, the Times' original denial of the
petticoat circumstances of DAVIS' cap
ture. It says : " The story of Mr. DAVIS'
attempt to escape is now discredited. Of
the many accounts furnished no two are
alike." There has been no denial, no dis
credit of the story. There has been one,
and only one account. The English jour
nal proceeds : "The version of the affair
comes from Washington, and represents
that CO). PAITCIELLED has presented to the
War Department the historical garments
themselves, which are now said to consist
of a water-proof cloak, used by Mr. DAVIS
as a skirt, and a shawl, which he used as 'a
hood. It seems probable that the petticoat
hoax, has been purposely circulated by certain
o f ficials, in order to heap ridicule upon the
Uonfederate leader." This last insinuation
is thoroughly absurd, is wholly untrue,
and the writer must have known it to have
been untrue when he wrote it. There
was no occasion of inventing a hoax to
heap ridicule upon DAVIS. He has made
himaelf ridiculous ; and John Bull, repre•
stilted by his press, is loth to admit that
the man whom it upheld so long as a great
ruler, could have closed his reign in the
most contemptible manner yet recorded in
history.
Two months ago, under a creditable in
fluence of humanity and remorse , Punch,
which. had so scandalously - caricatured
President LINCOLN ana rraiculcdthe DA
cause of Freedom, urto. tus DALue
Will be identified to _the ors of time, tried
",..euus by publishing a retrac-
tation, in verses, of its personal antagonism
to him, and a tardy confession of the wis
dom and justice of his policy. Since then,
as if ashamed of its creditable confession,
Punch has never named Mr. LINCOLN, but
has insinuated, now and then, that "the
so-called Southern Confederacy " ought
not have perished. It has received, of
course, all particulars of JEFFERSON DAVIS'
crinoline anonetnent—but has not noticed
it, by pen or pencil. Punch, in the days
when it was a power, had the character of
bitting, pretty impartially, all around—
always giving the advantage to the liberal
party, probably in imitation of Dr. Joan . -
WA, who, when reporting (which then was
inventing) the Parliamentary debates, used
always make his own party more eloquent
and convincing than the other. "Sir,"
he said, "I was not going to let the Whigs
have the beat of it." But, on the Aineri
can subject, Punch always let the rebels
have the best of it ; and now that JusTnn
sox DAVIS " came to grief," in his wife's
petticoat, in a very ridiculous manner,
Punch cannot see the fun, refuses to em,
ploy his pencil on such a suggestive
subject, and declines breathing one word
about it.

Cartoons upon trifling subjects but
,Punch, with all his practiced capability
for seizing the most ludicrous view of
a thing, could not find anything to laugh
at in the capture of JEFFERSON R&M
Suppose, for a moment, that the case
bad been reversed that some noted
Union leader, beaten at last, had pock
eted all the hard cash in the adjacent
banks ; had endeavored to run away with
it to some seaport where there was a chance
of his finding safety in a sea-flight; had
been overtaken by a troop of rebel cavalry;
bad tried to sneak away in his wife's hoop
skirt and shawl, bonnet and veil, and had
been detected by his jack-boots showing
through the hoops—suppose all this, and
imagine what capital it would have been
for Punch! How its artists would have
labored to heap ridicule on the scene;
and its hireling satirists, having dipped
their pens in gall and vitriol, would have
hurled contempt, in prose and verse, on
the unhappy captive ! But, when JEF
FERSON Dims was the man—not a sylla
ble from pen, not a scratch from pencil,
against hint! It makes us almost believe
the report that when the Confederate loan
was raised in Europe, a distribution of
"paid up" bonds•was made among the
Punch folks, in acknowledgment of their
constant aid to the interests of the South.
As it is, the Illustrated London News and
Punch, the English journals which have
the greatest circulation in the United
States, have been the steady supporters of
the rebels, from the first, and continue on
the same path now. Between the garrulity
of the first and the reticence of the other,
the partisanship against the Union is as
decided, if less violent, as ever.
NobilWs 'Wel& Deed.
Some years ago, when commenting upon
some transaction, the 'nature of which we
now forget, we took occasion to say that
the Marquis of Westminster, who owns
that part (" the west and worst ") of Lon
don, called " Belgravia," from his family
name, was about the meanest gentleman in
England. He certainly is the richest, his
income being estimated at $lO,OOO a day—
Which is steadily increasing by the falling-
Irk of leases in London. We have to take
back the condemnation. Though this
modern Onus may continue to dine at
the Reform Club in the dog-days, rather
than incur the cost of having a fire lighted
on which to grill his mutton•chop in Upper
Grosvenor street, he is preparing land for
a public park and recreation grounds, as a
gilt to the inhabitants of Chester, that tine
old city—one of the most curious in its
architecture in Europe—which fortunately
is within a short distance of Eaton Hall,
his principal country residence, and,
Windsor Castle excepted, one of the most
palatial dwellings in England. This gift,
it is estimated, will cost $250,000, and pro
bably more. It would be a noble present
from a monarch, and comes handsomely
from the rich neighbor of the people of
Chester.
In return, they are resolved, it is said,
to reelect Earl GROBVENOII, eldest son and
heir of the now•generous Marquis, and to
bear him free of all expense in the contest.
His Lordship, who has represented Chester
in,Parlinment since 1847, would probably
not meet with any effective opposition in a
city where his family own very many
houses. But the resolve, at any rate, to re-
Rlect him, free of cost, speaks well for
Cheater and for the Marquis. We rejoice
that, in this instance, high rank and great
wealth are accompanied by thoughtful
generosity; for, of all good things that a
city can have—next to clean streets, good
Elewersge, and abundance of .ivater—a
public park is the beat.
Prince Naidion.
This gentleman, only son of JEROME
BONAPARTE by his second marriage (the
first was with Miss PArrEnson, of Balti
more,) who has had the misfortune to
incur the displeasure of his putative cousin
for spicing his Ajaccio oration with too
much liberality, expressed equal popular
sentiments during his visit to this country
during the recent war. His sympathy,
from the first, has been with the Union
cause. The three points in his recent
speech to which the Emperor takes excep
tion are—that when Naporaton L came
back from Elba, he avowed the necessity
of allowing freedom of speech and of the
press in every free State ; that one of his
most judicious actions was the parting
with Louisiana to the United States, which
showed his' having anticipated and en
dorsed the Monroe doctrine, enunciated
in December, 1822, that there must not be
any foreign interference with this conti
nent; and lastly, his own avowal that the
rebellion of the South was the' unjustifi
able effort of an aristocracy of a few thou
sand slaveholders against the most liberal
constitution in the world ;" and that the
rights of every nation were " universal
suffrage honestly practiced, complete li
berty of the press, and the right of public
meeting."

A Touching Incident.
A correspondent of the Springfield (Nixes) Repub.
Ilea% under date of June 25th, in describing the
Class days exercise at Harvard College, tells the
following sad incident :
From these scenes of mirth.lovlng pleasure to the
"short and simple annals of the poor" is but a step,
and a sad step, too 5 for on the morning of class day
the sophomore class burled one of their own num
ber who literally died from want or the necessities
of life, and that, too, right here at Harvard College.
Only a year ago, fresh from a farm seventeen miles
from Buffalo, N. Y., a raw green lad of twenty-two
applied for admission to the sophomore class. His
awkward manner and uncouth bearing won for him
the name of s• Greeny,” .Only last week was he
missed from recitation, and way up in a little ten
by.twenty attic room of a rickety old boarding
house somebody said he was dylog of typhoid fever.
Ea-President Peabody, the good Samaritan of Har
vard, heard of his distress, and repairing to his
room, found the poor boy really in the arms Of death.
For a year had his only food been bread and water,
and Islluellince a little milk, and often one meal a
day sufficed. His room was small and poorly venti.
kited, and by the feeble light of an old oil lamp had
the poor fellow worked eighteen out of twenty-four
hours almost each day. These facts quickly coming
ont, everything that could be done was done. The
struggle was all over; his last hours wore made as
ounfortable as a eympatitizing and conscience.
stricken neighborhood could make them. His
broken-hearted mother came to carry her eon's body
home, and she must have been overjoyed to learn
what would have only a little before given Mal BO
much happiness to have known, that he was the first
scholar In his ohms, and to receive timitrat seholar
ship, which yields a oozy little Sam of $BOO per year.
But It was too late ; his pride would never allow
him to complain ; his ambition continually spurred
him on. The Fates are amiable sisters, the triple
furies always agree ; but pride, ambition, and pover
ty are most quarrelsome companions. We recollect
him passing every day; he never looked up; we all
can recall his hurried walk, his sad countenance,
t
his pale lamp always feebly winkling at midnight,
his running round the corner with a loaf of bread
under his arm, his going out in the severest storms
without umbrella or overcoat. Bat it is all over
now.
The Recent Conspiracy in Spain.
Mom the London Times. 3
There is something unusually grave in the state
ments about the conspiracy just discovered in the
city of Valencia. It teems Civil Governor of
the Province, M. Rubio, had several days previous
warned the Captain gaeneral, Villalonga, of what
Was Coming, but he treated the Warning very
lightly, and as unworthy of credence. M. Rubio
at once communicated with the Minister of the .
Interior, and the Minister of War wrote to Villa
longs requesting him, to inquire into the matter,
and report Immediately. The reply of Villalonga
was that he had no reason to suspect the colonel of
the Bourbon _Regiment in garrison at Valencia ho,
It now appears, was at the head of the plot rand
wag to begin the insurrecelon at the head of his
oorps. The Incredulity of the General did not pre
vent the Civil Governor from being on the watch.
A few nights ago he went to the theatre, where the
Captain General was, and told him there was no
time to be lost, as the Bourbon regiment would in
a few hours , t pronounce It with their colonel and a
number of his officers, who were at that moment in
Consultation at the barracks, waltin_g for the Signal
from some persons belonging to the isentoeratlo Ca
--(moo trauma - met Mitre nrid; - having ascer
tained that none of the Officers were at their
quarters, repaired th e t w o
barracks, and there
found the colonel, the two Iffietenant colonebi
commanding battalions. two majors, and two cap
tains. As they could give no satisfactory , expla
nation of their presence In the barracks at so late
an hour, they were arrested on the spot. The Cap
tain General went to the Casino sed also arrested
the committee who were sitting there. It appears
that the plan of the conspirators was to arrest
the Captain General, to poetess themselves of the
barracks of San Prato:nate, as well as of the rail
road, to proclaim the deposition Of the Queen
and the union of Portugal and Spain, under the
sovereignty of the Ring of Portugal, who is married
to a daughter of Victor Emmanuel. Others Bann
that the republic was to be proclaimed. Proceed
ings have already commenced against - the primn
ess, and it seems that the subalterns, non commis
sioned officers, and men knew nothing of the °imp
racy, and that the colonel and the superior office=
trusted to their personal influence tO lead the regi
ment anthey pleated. •
Ii this plot be not like some other abortive plots
In other.days ; if It be not a contrivance of persons
who would make it appear that they are indispen
sable for the maintenance of order, it is very seri
one. As to the • noncommissioned officers knowing
nothing whatever about the plot, the success of
which depended so much on their co operation, It is
most unlikely. Nor is it likely that the colonel of a
regiment would venture on such a step without the
certainty of military risings in other important
parts of the kingdom.
The union of Portugal and Spain, with the King
of Portugal for sovereign, is not heard of now for
the brat .time. It mast very generally -spoken of
scene eight or ten years ago, but did not meet with
much favor among the popular classes in Spain, or
among the better classes of Portugal. The Spa
nish people—that is, the masses—in town and coun
try, always affected to look down upon the Porta.-
geese ; the Portuguese repay them with strong Me
nke, and certainly the Spanish peasant would not
feel elated at the idea of having a Portuguese
prince, however meritorious, as their king. What
the Portuguese may feel I don't know, but the pros
pect of Portugal beta absorbed in Spahr 18 not very
nattering to nation al seli-love. Be this as It may,
It is, I believe, undoubted that there is muds dis
content in Spain. It is more grave to find this dis
content in the army, and that the corps which was
the brat named to proclaim the deposition of Queen
Isabella in favor of a prince of the house of Bra
genre should be the Regiment of Bourbon.

Tragedy in Tipton County, Tenn.
One of the moat ocid•blooded tragedies that has
occurred for a long while, says the Memphis Argue,
took place at Bloomington, Tenn., *lbw days ago.
The circumstances seem to be about as follows :
On Sunday lad a negro named Kilpstriek, and
another man named Smith, went to the house of
Judge J. B. Walker, near Bloomington, Tenn., to
see one of the colored men formerly belonging to
that gentleman. The man Kilpatrick went to the
house of Walker, and told him that a brother of Dill
(Walker's) who had lett the country some two years
ago, had returned, and w fo r at a Certain place wait
thg to pee him, and that the purpose of giving
him the information, he had come to see him.
Walker did not suspect anything wrong, and set
out, in company with Kilpatrick, to see his re •
turned brother. The two prOpeeded together to the
place indicated, when, instead of seeing his brother,
Walker saw the man Smith. between whom and
himself there had existed an old feud. On the ap.
preach of Walker, Smith seized an axe and struck
hiM on the head, the blow cleaving the skull from
the mown of the head to the vertebral Column.
They then struck the are into each temple, so as to
be sure that therhad killed him, and went away,
leaving his body exposed on the spot Whore they
had committed thlerrible deed. It was three
days before the body, as found, in a put ri fying and

Gold is coming from armada and all parts of the
country, to be sold at current quotation!). The ad•
Vance in price, and increased derma for Our Donde
in Europe, with the expectation of large receipts of
cotton from the South, are depressing the exchange
market. The bull operatore, who have gotten up
this corner in gold, are working against the natural
come of the market at present. The fluctuations
In the price of gold are as frequent and as`great
now, during a time of peace, as they were during
the rebellion, when victories and defeats were

What becomes of the theory that the premium on
gold Wall caused by the war, and the need or bad

The railroad companies, after abstaining from
furnishing regular reports of their earnings so long
as suited their interest, now furnish them as if there
bad been no interruption of the returns. The sus
pension of unfavorable and the publication of fa
vorable reports, It remains to be known to these
companies, is i fraud npon the public, and as such
Is to be discouraged. If the railroad companies de
sire to be honest towarde their stockholders - they
will see the nedessity of giving regular and not 21 4 -
regular returns.
The Pittsburg Commerciatoannot understand why
the people of the South should require gold pay
ment for their products, when our Western produoers
are willing to take greenbacks for theft grain, and
pork and beef, which are jest as valuable and neet9•
nary as cotton and tobacco. Does not the cot of
Congress make greenbacks a legal tender at the
South as well as the North S The comparison of
our currency with the worthless rags of the late
Confederacy is a direct insult which every loyal
man will feel himself bound to resent, Our cur
rency is the issue of a legitimate Government, while
theirs was merely a promise to pay which they had
neither the intention nor the ability so keep. Frost
all accounts that we hear from the South, we think
the great trouble is that there 15 a remarkable soar
city of greenbacks.
The London Economist of !one 7th remarks on
the London money market :
The bank minimum rate wail reduced yesterday
from three and a halite threeper Cent. The amount
of mercantile paper afloat 111' small ; but, as usual,
there has been more activity In the demand for
money in the open market at three per cent., and a
larger share of inisinsidi lice been carried to the
bank. There tea diminution in the migply s partly
owing to the withdrawals by country bankers in
connection with .the antioipated expenses of the
coming election. Beyond these circumstances there
is no indication that the slightly increased general
activity of the present time will be sustained. On
the contrary, while the produce market continues
dull, and so long as the &dolma from India refer
only to a state of commercial affairs as unsettled as
that now described, little probability appears that
trade operations will be entered Into on an extended
scale. Money is now quoted at three per cent. In
the two chief capitate of Europe, and It Is remarka
ble as evidence of the altered direotiOn or the bul
lion current that the reductions In the rate of dig
°cunt have been in London more rapid than in
Paris.
Internal revenue Olsen for Virginia, Louisiana,
Alabama, and . Georgia, have been appointed. It
will, nevertheless, be some months before the rove.
nue system can be established in those States.
The Richmond Whig, under date of June 211 h,
refers to trade in that city in this wise:
The depression of business consequent upon the
defloieney of money; continues. The supply Of
merchandise of nearly every description is in canes
of the demand, and prices accordingly rule low—at
figures, in some cases, below the Northern markets.
The prevailing opinion in that the &mitten sales of
groceries, &0., by forcing goods upon the market,
have brought down prices below the normal
standard, and if continued will ruin, for a time, the
trade of the city —a result which all business men
are interested in averting. Consequently, Several
of the leading houses have determined to suspend
the sales of merchandise at auction until the rail
road communication with the interior is completed,
and the grain crops of the onrrent year are sold or
hypothecated. In other words, until money flows
more freely, and competition becomes more active.
A few articles Of eubsistence, such as bacon and fish,
are selling at remunerative prioee. The description
of goods known as " Butlers' stores" are going off
at very low figures; but the stocks are now nearly
exhausted. The market is overstocked with liquors,
and prices twenty-five per cent. below the involoe
are obtained with dlilloulty. At an auction sole of
crockery yesterday, the offerings, in small lots,
were knocked out at very moderate prices. We sub.

The New York Pool of yesterday says :

very strong at that price.
Stocks opened a shade better on the street, New
York Central selling at 98% to 9334; Erie, 76% bid.
There were large sales of Michigan Southern yes.
terday, and today the supposition of the street is
that some of the directors are largely short, and
consequently many in the street are either follow
ing their example or awaiting until they have de•
pressed the stook to their satisfaction before buying
tor a further advance, This stock sold down from
64 to 613 j. Governments Bettye and steady at yes
terday's prices. At the regular call the stook mar•
