Many K ddier friends of the late General Reynolds, who lost his life in the battle of (tett ystamg, met at the Continental Hotel yes terday, to continue their consideration of a monument for the dead. The report of the T r easurer, General Wainwright, announced T,;:a,th in the treasury.

We record another disaster at sea this mora ine-, i. r., the binning of the steamer Glasgow al sea, 011 the afternoon of the 31st. Steam ship, named Glasgow seem to be unfortunate. The mysterious disappearance of the steamer Of that name years ago, but a little while after a similar disappearance of the President, is still in many memories.

The oil Still Bows and still burns. Undermining the Gulf of St. Lawrence cable commenced yesterdaymorning, and a curious and perhaps important discovery was made. At three miles from the shore the armor of cable was found entirely rusted off.

This discovery may be of importance r. future cable expetiments. Tennessee has held her election, but the ii,ople appear to have manifested no interest in it.

WAsuncoToN, August 3, 1865 The fiendish spirit of slavery survives its defeats on the battle-field and delights in die most malignant exhibitions in the midst of rags and ruin. Pecuniary deprivation, the distress produced by an incredible loss of life, the exhaustion of the soil, and the .actual sealing up of heretofore flourishing seaports, have not abated the pride ofthc eers,nor completely disenchanted the people they have betrayed. It is not a pleasant thing to admit, but the best evidences con car in proving that what the Government needs most—a sterling and Eel - mine Romp lance of the burdens and reciprocities of the situation—a general submission to Na tional laws and regulations—are only of ex ceptional and spasmodical occurrence. Governor Holden's letter to his friends now in New York, who went there from North Carolina, to attract emigration to that State, Liu were met by the rumor that the aristo cratic leaders or former slaveholders were lerseeating the Union men, white and co- I "A, is a strong proof of the existence of a - orse than disaffected feeling in that State ; for, even while denying the rumor, and . nviting emigration, he says that "if all the troops should be withdrawn, and we should not have an efficient police guard, there ight, and probably would be, disturb ace in some localities." The notorious 3isbop Wilmer, or Alabama, well known for his shameless and criminal viola • ion of his obligations to God and the country, seeks to add to the ill-feeling of the Southerners by ativisTAg them not to Pray for the President of the United states, because he is only to be no iced when the civil authority in Ala bama is restored_ The clear object of his reverend schismatic is to impress the w eople that Andrew ;Johnson is not Presi ent, and that it would be perfectly proper to begin and carry on another rebellion. Of Virginia and Tennessee you have had some fair specimens. The newspapers I read from the South are generally animated Iy the same feeling ; and even the South erners who come North to retrieve their for tunes, and to enjoy the protection of the Union they tried to destroy, seem to glory iu the most insulting and disloyal language. I need not say how steadily I have sought Ito believe that these things could not ... .._., :i__....____........:..z.. , , k ..:\ ' : _ ..i.1::::, tip 7 7 ..te , -, . -. ..,.,_ . • ... , &01.,,,y,::--- r ,-......_- N.. , .•_„,,„0 .... •:...,:..,- !..•-• .•.. .' - f r.' . 1 7 - .4 )4- ~.,........,,' ' . • • f :,..• '. .-•' '' ' ...... : 1•1• flift L ~ , . ...• - - miel ,_..„...4..:,. a t''''' '''.. .., '''' '...::•.•,,, j 7--- - -. • 14.11.1Mmi!'21,- ui us ' - -..- . •:,- ••--- '. .:i...,,,,,.- - -- ----- k.:,, F.- - .:,411 0 _.....1.%4 t _,:. .:z . .4.7 , .✓ __........._ _____...... - 71'7 [ ~441'•"". • • ~„_ . ittllll -. icti t ' l ' itl•J 11 , : .- ' @Cr- - ..- -;,.

I still cherish the hope that there is a large residuum of love for the Union, and of gratitude to the President, among that people. They cannot, however, re_ main obdurate and spiteful, and then corn_ plain of bitter consequences. Do they ever think that all their demonskations of tinier cad rebellion waken the men of the free States who desire to be their friends? There is scarcely an hour of the day that I am not told by some one who believes that the only plan for establishing on firm foundations the national authority is to class this whole people as being disloyal, and to deal unto them strong measures alone—that the rebel spirit is only intensified by the display of fraternal and friendly offices. Now, lam loth to act upon an assumption so harsh. Nor does that hesitation result from any solicitude for the Government. In any case the Government is safe and strong. It can endure all the burdens of the situation. But it is different with the South. It will be a sad sight to see forced upon the Exe cutive the necessity of holding these com munities by the strong arm, simply because the 'baffled leaders, priests, and slave tyrants, have power enough to keep alive the bitter strifes and hates that ought to have been sepulchred with the rebellion. WASHINGTON. THE PROBABLE METHOD OF THE TRIAL OF DAVIS. WILL IT BE IN A MILITARY OR A CIVIL COURT ? Our Custom Receipts for Three Months over 520,0130,000, THE HEALTH OF THE PRESIDENT THE DISPOSITION Or 4 FORD'S THEATRE (Special Despatch to The Press.) WASHINGTON August 3. Trial of Jefferson Davis. The recent jury trials in Washington, and the late delightful ebullitions of rebel good" nature in Richmond, Nashville, and Columbia' Tennessee, have not seemed to he the most auspicious preparations for the trial of JEF FERSON AVIS in the civil courts. The man ner of conducting and concluding the Case of Miss HARRIS, was not the pro mise of the decorum and deliberation so necessary to such a trial as that of DAVIS. And if his case is carried to Richmond, nobody need doubt that the people who boldly voted into civil positions the most ac tive and successful of the late officers of the rebel service, would hesitate about violating every oath and resorting to every expedient to acquit JEFPRRSON DAvis. The example of the Military Commission, which tried and con victed the conspirators, has not been lost upon other nations ; and, as you have noticed, the conduct as well as the issue of that in quiry, have been comniended by the ablest organs of foreign opinion. Unquestionably no civil court, under the best regulations, would have secured such a mass of proof, and would have so fearlessly digested it. J ?Hem sox Davis has not only been guilty of tree,. `son, as defined in the Constitution, but he is clearly implicated in some of the most fright- Ad b.-rewriting ortrie - Tenernen.. There is, as the en iSting, rancor and defiance or the rebels of the South sufficiently admonish us, no pros pect of trying him thoroughly before any but a military commission. Such is undoubtedly the opinion of some of the most eminent jurists in the country. The Government has thus far shown so much silent and stern re solve in meeting the requirements of justice and the wishes of the people, who have lost so many lives, and given so much treasure to the cause of their country, that I do not doubt the boldest course will be taken in regard to this cruel and relentless tyrant. With no desire to excite stronger feelings of bitterness among the Southern or Northern people, I say that we have only been successful in the work of vindication when we have been bold and searching in our policy. The execution of the conspirators struck a blow at treason that re sounded all through the wreck of the rebel lion ; and it was Sanctioned by divine and by human law and obligation. Let us not be less fearless and firm in regard to the matchless usurper and despot of slavery, Jiarpeasox Da vis ; in ninny respects, the modern author, ar— chitect and engineer of the rebellion—the man - who, having hurled a nation into civil war, was as deaf to the cries of his own people, when they looked to him for relief and rescue, as he was to the anguish and the appeals of our . prisoners, who, from their prison -hells, called to him for deliverance from the fiends he had sent to torture them. Even his own country men of the South admit that he deserves a murderer's death for his inhumanity to them. *s* Jlly Associated Press.? Application for Pardon. Many applications for pardOn continue to be received. Among those who have recently re ceived the Executive clemency were WM. T. AVERY and Wit. E. SMITH. They were both, previous to the rebellion; members of the United states house of Representatives. The former served the rebel Government as mail Agent, and the latter was a member of the rebel Congress. Ford's Theatre. .

PHILADELPHIA, -FRIDAY, AUGUST 4, 1865. THE TIDE OF EMIGRATION. ITS GREATNESS, ITS CHARACTER, ITS ADVANTAGE TO US. GENERAL NATIO - A.'ALITV OF 017 P. EMIGRANTS-A COMPARISON BETWEEN THOSE OF. DIFFERENT NATIONALITIES-WHO HAVE THE MOST FORE SIGHT-WHO ARE THE MOST THRIFTY-HOW THE GERMANS PREPARE NOR AMERICA-WHERE THEY ARE RECEIVED, AND HOW THEY ARE PROTECTED-NEW THOUGH OLD FACTS. A New York contemporary has a long and interesting article on the tide of emigration that flows to our shores and impinges gene rally at Castle Garden, in that city, giving sta tistics mingled poetically and deftly with the warm ideas that spring from the mind of the writer. The emigrants are taken as they start from their native land, from somedingy, Willa. lid cabin in Saxony or Connemara, perhaps set on the bosom of the ocean; their trials in storm and calm, and the treatment they too often receive on ship-board described'. Par ticular reference is thus made to a part of this treatment: As usual, no order has been issued before leaving port requiring baggage and provisions to be firmly secured. It is rather to the Interest of the ship-owners that the stock of food laid in by the emigrant—at Liverpool, say—should be wholly or partly spoilt, for then he will have to purchase at high prices, short weight, from the, ship's stores. The consequence is Butt during the storm trunks full Of clothing and all manner of goods, barrels of potatoes, and flour, and meal, and bacon, and beef, and 'butter have been cast adrift between decks, and rolling about with every lurch of the ship, have been smashed into indistinguishable frag ments. A sea has broken through the hatches, too, and, mingling with this miscellaneous mess, has worked it up into a salt and yeasty batter, which floods the lower decks to the depth of several Inches. Tnie is a catastro phe which happens at the commencement of a large percentage of passages, yet few officers take the easy and efficient means of averting it. An immense aggregate of property as thus annually lost to emigrants. THE NUMBER OF THE "EMIGRANTS AND TIIEFIC The writer says everybody knows that by far the greater part of the emigration to this country comes from Ireland and Germany. So overwhelming is the proportion, that no other classes readily occur to the mind. The rela tive proportions between the numbers of Ger man and Irish, annually arriving, have varied very much in different years. Last year, it will be seen, there were nearly Alm more Irish than German, and the two together form ed nearly five-sixths of the entire amount of emigration : Number and Nativity of Alien Passengers arrived at the port of New York, during the year 1864, • who were liable to Bonds or Commutation ender the Acts of April 11,1&11, July 11,1851, and April 13,1113.

The Germans are the most provident class, as a rule, that arrive here. They generally send agents on the winter before they leave the fatherland, to buy laud out West, and then come out in organized bodies, going straight to their destination instead of loitering around New York, exposing themselves to its-thickly planted snarra and pit-falls. They generally have more or less gold about them, and bring piles of trunks. It Is a. custom with them to lay in three or four years' stock of clothing . -, nrtitig_for those foreign shores. Many Of them have misty notions of this new and happy land, and judge of our advancement in the sartorial and dress-making arts and sci ences by crude pictures they have seen of In dians attired for - the war-path. .The _lrish seldom make any previous provision for their future here. They come out in a frightfully hap-hazard manner, bringing as few encum braneeS as possible. They have wild ideas of meeting Brother Barney on the corner of the first street, or of being told on the spot by any bystander the exact whereabouts of Me con sin Norah." "My good woman you will hear an offielal say, "1 really don't ," where your husband "An' Shure, si-r-r,.its in New York he is.

It takes as long to unload one German vessel as to unload three from Liver pool, and this is attributable solely to the ex cess of baggage on the latter.

These meetings: they are in themselves a curious study. How cheery some, how hys terically demonstrative others, and some how apparently unpleasant and reluctant, how pal pably lacking in warmth and welcome. The cheery meetings are between friends who are mutually independent, and therefore glad to see each Other ; the demonstrative ones be tween those who are doing well here, and are rejoiced that those theylove - can now share their prosperity; the - reluctants are those who, getting along fairly, fear the new comer will be a temporary burden to them.

The large building on the Battery, where New York beauty and fashion once thronged to listen to the dulcet notes of Jenny Linil and Grist, was leased by the Commissioners of Emigration in 1855, and by them converted, with the grounds adjaeent, into an emigrant depot. The endeavor to establish this insti tution was met with the most violent and persistent hostility by the horde of thieves and scoundrels who had so long regarded the new-arriving foreigners as their lawful prey. Many outrages 'were committed, the commis sioners word threatened,the place was 'several times stormed by gangs of ruffians; but these demonstrations were Away suppressed, though never punished as they should have been, except in the case .of a few, on whose beads the summary justice of the policeman's club descended. Castle Garden has been a haven of rest and comparative security to the emigrant. There, like a lamb within the fold, he could see the wolves prowling around, eager to devour him, but he felt that he was Suit.

There are several sub-depart ments at Castle Garden, established to pro mote the comfort and convenience of the emigrants, and facilitate their speedy set tlement in the new country of their choice. There is the inquiry department s where par ties calling for friends must satisfy the offi cer in charge of their authority and good faith before they are allowed to take any one away.

At the intelli gence and labor department, male WI female help can be procured without charge. Few NllllO enter their names there remain long without employment, The police department is admirably conducted. When a ship 'seeming up, one of the Castle Garden police goes on board and remains until the last passenger or package is landed.

These letters are taken care of and forwarded by the clerk. Boys and girls are not allowed to leave the building at nil, unless in charge of grown-up friends. If they arrive alone, they must wait till some responsible person comes for them. in the meanwhile they arc sent to Ward's island. A few boarding-house runners, under the strictest regulations, are permitted to solicit customers for the establishments they represent. They arc obliged to exhibit to eaeh customer a list of their prices and accommo dations, and any one of them detected in swindling or deceiving an emigrant forfeits his license and is ejected from the garden.

The Hebei Secretary of State US 111:THOD OF ESCAPE TO HA,VAXA--THE STOICS( OF HIS ADVESTIIEHS. A correspondent of the - New - York Trork; writing from Havana, gives the following story of the escape from this country of the rebel Secretary of State, J. P. Benjamin - • - - " early in May he separated from the pros!, Sident (Davis,) near Washington, Georgia, for the purpose of making his way to Nassau and Bavaria from some point on the Florida coast. lie was to attend to some public business at these ports, and then to rejoin the' president. in the trans-Mississippi via Matamoras and Texas. He travelled directly south, through Georgia and Florida, on horseback, disguised as a farmer in search of lands on which to set- , tle,and passed through the Country without exciting suspicion or attracting attention, until he reached the lower side of the Penin sula of Florida. lie was informed that no boats were to be found on the eastern coast, and went thence to the Gulf shore, where after a month's delay he succeeded in getting a ship's yawlboat and two men who were willing to risk their lives upon the sea in it. The open boat was about fifteen feet in length, in which they coasted, the peninsula until they reached one of the keys of the Florida reef, where they succeeded in procurin g a boat somewhat larger, but still an open boat, in which they put , to sea to cross the Gnlf stream, and fortunately reached the Bimines upon the Banks, after a passage of sixty hours. On Mond :Iv, the 10th of July, after an unsuccessful attempt to reach Nassau, in which he was balled by headwinds and heavy weather, Be put back to, the Bimines. On the 13th he took passage from the Bimines for Nassau in a small sloop of nine tons hurthen, loaded with sponges (whieh the greatest ?), and on Friday, the 14th, this sloop foundered at sea; when thirty miles distant from the nearest land. The vessel went down so rapidly that he, with the colored men who formed the crew had barely time to jump into a skiff in tow of the swo) before she sank. In this boat, With a light mast, sails, and compass, and their only provi sions a pot of boiled rice, which the negroes had cooked for their breakfast--in this leaky and overloaded boat, and having but one oar, they made for land, and, as the weather was calm and a vessel in sight, by dint of energetic sculling, they reached the light-house vessel at five and were cordially received by Captain Stewart, en hoard the Georgia, her Britannic Majesty's light-house yacht, and were warmly and most cordially entertained. This vessel was on an official tour of light house inspection upon the banks, and at the request of Mr. Benjamin returned him once more to the Bimines. There Mr. Benjamin chartered another vessel (sloop) on the 25th of .Trily, and arrived at Nassau Friday, the list. On Saturday, the 22d, lie Sailed on 'board the good schooner Britannia, and arrived at Ha vana on the 25th, safe and sound. "His whole trip has occupied the best part of three months, out of which thirty dayshave been passed at sea in miserable open boats ; at least twenty-two days in the smallest crafts that float. Ills health has not suffered, nor has lie been indisposed for an hour during all the hardship and exposure Wkiell he has un dergone.), , [The agent of the Associated Press at Ha vana denies that Benjamin had such incredi ble escapes as , those recorded above.

M.—On July Stet, when in latitude 40 deg., longitude 68 deg. 23 min. W., the steamer Glasgow was burnt.. The passengers and crew were' all'saved by the bark Rosamond, and are now on board the steamer Erin, which arrived here this morning from Queenstown. The Glasgow sailed from New York to Liver pool, on July 29th: NEW TORE, August 3.—The following. is a de. tailed account of the burning of the steamship Glasgow. The British steamer Glasgow left Now York at four o'clock on Sunday morning, July 30, for Liverpool; with a full freight of cotton, cheese, ete.,and about:two hundred and eighty persons, ineludingthe crew. At Wok:lock on Monday morning the cry was sounded, " Man overboard P , and a boat was lowered and efforts made to save him, but without avail. Ile had come aboard in a state of delirium tremens, - and had been put in a straight-jacket by the surgeon; and thus con fined he rolled himself overboard. The ex citement caused by this event had scarcely subsided, when, about 11'. M., the alarm of lire was sounded in the fore part of the ship, and all the second class passengers flocked aft amid the wildest excitement. Orders were given by the Captain that no person should get into the boats without per mission, and that the first man who attempted to force his way into a boat before all the women and children had been taken off should be shot. The order was cheerfully acquiesced in by all the gentlemen in the first cabin. A vessel Was Won discovered about eight miles off, and the Glasgow was at once put under full head of steam towards her, firing guns and flying the signal, "I am on fire." The vessel changed her course, and made towards the %Glasgow, and in the meantime Captain Manning ordered his boats to be lowered, so as to prevent confusion when the time came to use them. tie then commenced transferring the passengers to the boats, the ladies and children first, and then the males. The friendly bark proved to be the Rosamond, Captain F. S. Welles, of and for :New York, who received the passengers and crew of the Glasgow with the utmost kindness, and bade them welcome to all he had on board. After all the passengers and crew had been - transferred, the removal of the baggage took place; and then the Glasgow's officers and crew left, Captain Manning remaining by her until ten o'clock P. M., when the hull was wrapped in flames. The steamer Erin came in sight on Tuesday morning, at daybreak, and it was deemed pru dent to transfer the Glasgow's passengers to herovbich was done, the captain of the Erinre ceivhig them in the most hospitable manner. The origin of the fire is variously reported, one having it that a bale of cotton took fire from a lighted match thrown upon it by a st o ee n ra re g ti e et a in s Sge the e (letc after of n E g t i n: i s -> o i pmee. of the passengers of the ill-fated ship William Nelson, were met with, who were exceedingly anxious to render assistance to the unfor tunates. At a meeting of the Glasgow's Passengers, resolutions of thanks to Captain Mantling and his °dicers were adopted. The following is the report of the steamship Erin: August 1, 9.30 P. M.—Saw a light on port bow, supposed to be a 'vessel onfire. At 10.30 P. M. found it to be an Inman steamer, name un known, in tow ofa. brigantine. At 10.50 stopped engines, and sent a boat to a.seertain if there were anybody on board, and found that the Passengers and crew bad left in the ships boats, and that she was in tow of the brig Martha Washington, of Searsport, from Boston for New York. At 4A. N. stopped to pick up a boat with officers and men, who reported that they be longed to the steamer Glasgow, on fire, and that all the passengers and crew were then on board the bark Rosamond, then in sight. Pro- seeded to the bark, and took off all the pas sengers and crew of the Glasgow, about 250 in all, and brought them to this port. The cargo of the steamer Glasgow et/Misted of 76 boxes and 1 tierce of bacon, 1,001 barrels of bladders, 2,014 boxes of cheese, 218 bales of hops, 755 bales of cotton, 71 rolls of leather, and bushels of corn. Among the passengers in the Glasgow were Mrs. Mary Campbell, of Baltimore ; V, T. nor mester and wife, of Philadelphia; Charles A. Leas, United States Consul at Madeira, and wife and daughter. All were saved as before stated. Mr. }Seward During his IlineSS. Mr. George Yocke, who attended Mr, Seward, gives the following account, which is trans* lated from the Illinois Staals Zeitung: On the morning after the assassination he said to his nurses his sensations immediately after the assault had by no means been of an unpleasant nature. lie had experienced no extraordinary pains, but while the blond had been gushing from his arteries he had sup posed that Ins last end was nigh, and thought at the same time what a pleasant thing it Was to die thus, without pain. Toward his nurses and toward all who came near him during his sickness, Mr. Seward was uniformly friendly, even affectionate ; and never when awake, did his philosophical firm ness desert him. Only When asleep he would, at times, during the first two weeks after the attack, suddenly startup and beat around with his hands when dreams brought the assassin - to his imagination, but in two or three minutes lie was always quieted. During the first three weeks Mrs. Seward was constantly, day and night, at the bedside ei ther of her husband or that of Frederick, and these exertions have since hastened the death of a lady equally distinguished for the excel lent qualities of her head and of her heart. No less noble was the conduct of Mr. Seward's daughter, Miss Fanny, Indeed, it is perhaps to her courage that her father and the nation owe the salvation of his life. Like her mother, Miss Fanny was an untiring attendant upon her suffering relatives. The greatest trouble to the physicians was , Seward's mental activity, which did not abate even during his greatest physical weakness and severest pains. In order to prevent all excitement during this critical period, and on account of the shattered jaw-bone, the physi cians enjoined on him not to speak, but it was difficult to get him to comply. It was not mere idle loquacity that rendered silence so irksome to the statesman, but chiefly his patriotic anxiety about the Re- Public. He desired to express his mind about the condition of the country, to fulfil his official duties as Secretary of State. The at tending physiMans had prolribiked speaking - before the attempted assassination, but to ex• press his thoughts by writing was also Mt• practicable, as his right arm was broken. But as soon as the condition of his fractured bones would allow, the medical gentleman had to bandage and : fasten the upper third of the arm (where the fracture existed,) so as to enable him to use the lower part and the hand for writing. In this manner he Conversed with the President during the last days of that lamented functionary's life. The President would sit at his bedside and eX press himself on the exciting questions of the day, when Seward would write his views on a slate. In the same manner he conducted his interview before and after the assassination, with Mr. Hunter, the Assistant Secretary State, and thus actually conducted the affairs of the Department of State, the papers, de spatches, documents, - ltc., of which had to be carried to his bedside, even during the criti. cal periods of his illness. It was the same patriotic restlessness and activity of Mr. Seward which prevailed on the physicians to send for a skilful physician of New York, who arranged an artificial wire al) paratue in his mouth, Which enabled him to sneak without risk, even before his jawbone was healed. This apparatus caused the illus trious patriot at first excruciating pains and at one time became displaced, so that the 'New York physician had to be telegraphed in order to replace it. But all these great and little annoyances did not for a moment disturb Seward's philosophic intellect nor slacken his patriotic activity. Few men in history have evinced such subli mity of character and strength of mind as William Henry Seward on his bed of sickness, surrounded by the terrors of assassination and conspiracy. He maintained these quail- - ties even when, after his partial recovery, lie received the additional blow of the intelli gence of the detith of his faithful spouse. DEATH o 1 A FOUT SIDEPTIM HERo,—Coroner_ Collin held an inquest on the body of Michael . Cummins, who died recently, as was supposed, from the effects of wounds inflicted by Philip Clark, during a quarrel. It appeared from a post-mortem examination,made by Dr. Ro binson, that Mr, Cummins - mad from conges tion or the lungs, and not from his injuries. At the 'beginning of the rebellion &emend en tered the service of the Government, and was stationed at Fort Sumpter. He had letters from Gen.

THREE CENTS. The Letter of General Cog. (From the Clueinuati (tr.) Times.] General Cox, fresh from travels far and wide over the Southern States, has no faith in the visions which perplex some people With re spect to the negro; and in a letter addressed to the representatives of this class, deals in a Soldier-like manner with the issues of the day. The Convention which nominated General Cox for Governor of Ohio, adopted aplatform of which the doctrinal part fa substantially embodied in two propositions: Ist. "That slavery and its institutions are: irreconellably opposed to freedom and free institutions," and must be finally and completely eradicated; 2d. That President Johnson's policy of recon struction is "e»dorsed," with the proviso that the completed restoration of the rebel States "shall be at such time and upon such terms as Will give unquestioned assurance or the peace and security, not only to the loyal people Of the rebel States, but also of the peace and Prosperity of the Federal Union." Upon this declaration of principles, General Cox grounds arms, reserving only the right to a free discussion of differences of opinion within the party lines. "I have always be lieved," says General Cox, "that adherence to a Party platform does not exclude freedom of opinion or discussion upon matters not em bodied in it, though it does imply that such discussion should be a free and friendly in terchange of views with the object of throw ing all possible light upon subjects which may sooner or later become topics of impor tance, and upon which we may have to form a definite policy. When the time comes for action, all thoroughly loyal men should agree to support that policy which the wisdom of the majority may agree upon, unless it shall conflict with some principle eonacientlMlSly held ; in which ease those who so dissent have the undoubted right to withdraw their con nection, not from a candidate simply, but, from the party." A view of the subject, which must be adMitted just and equitable, and from which the array of individual opinions ad vanced, receive - new character and light. Gen. Coe rebukes the "Oberlin inquisitors" for their "indecent haste" in wishing to draw him out upon undefined questions. Being ful ly committed to the principles of the Republi can party, he thinks that there was no need of exacting from him what the Convention re fused to decide. "You are the only members of the Union party of the State," he continues, "whom I have found impatient to commit your brethren, in advance of the Meeting of Congress, to a definte a policy, upon a subject upon which the• Convention had, by strongest implication, declared it premature to decide what course ought to be taken. The State election decides no such issues ; the progress of events in the South will probably throw in creased light upon all such questions ; • yet you insist that I shall give you my views, not for the purpose of mutual assistance in arriving at a solution of a difileulty, but under notice that the votes of your people will be deter mined for or against me by my answer. I think that in so doing you wrong both your selves and the members of the whole political organization to which we belong, and to which you gave a pledge of cordial co-opera tion upon the platform as adopted through your delegates, who were present at the con ventiOn." Put he does not shirk the ordeal. "For my self," he declares, "I have no secrets?' and one would judge so from the manly candor which marks the explanation lie gives of his personal views on all the queries put to him. In • the first place he is for Andrew Johnson and his policy, "tooth and toe-nail." On this sub ject he speaks plainly and wisely. Hear him : I believe that the President is earnestly de termined to seek the good of the whole coun try, and of all the rakes in it ; that he has full Claim to that confidence which we declared that we reposed in him ; and that what we, as Union men, cannot succeed in doing in har mony and co-operation with him and his ad ministration, we shall fail of doing altogether. any support of him ' therefore, wilt be no half hearted- support, but a zealous and thoroughly hearty CO-1211CMU072 with no ulterior purpose or thought of separation on issues likely to arise. it is by the cordial harmony of 'Ur, Johnson and the Union members of Congress, that the country is to be carried safely through its present perils, and division between them would place us in imminent danger of ship wreck. We may have diverse opinions as to the true solution of this knotty problem of re construction, and during the proper period for discussion we may and ought to discuss thorn with candor. with fullness,. and with a tole rant spirit, but when this is done, and the timefor action arrives, it will be the business ofCongress and the Executive to agree upone the plan to be adopted, and that which is in this manner honestly determined by devotedly Union men, I shall believe, as I have before Said, to be the best attainable result, whether it agrees with my views or not. In short, I believe, that un der no circumstances should we wish the transfer of the power of this Government to the hands of those who have been disloyal during the war, by any division among our selves, until all the questions which grow out Of the war are permanently and finally de cided, It would be difficult to compress a quarter of the amount of practical wisdom into so small a compass. It is clear, to the point, and sincere. It is the keynote, also, to the entire policy marked out for the Republican party. " We may have diverse opinions as to the true • solution of the knotty problem of reconstruc tion, and during the proper period for discus sion, we ought to discuss them with candor, with fullness, and with a tolerant spirit," Who will gainsay it, and who will fail to own that this is the only fair and reasonable creed for the unity of a great party? General cox takes the question of negro suffrage by the horns. lie is against it. We quote those pas sages which explain Gen. Cox's position. Mere be states the case : You,udging froth this distance, say "De liver the tour millions of freed people into the hands of their former oppressors, now em bittered by their defeat, and they will make their condition worse than before?' I,starting from Me same principles, and after four years of close and thoughtful observation of the races where they are, say I ens unwillingly forced to the con vicaon eh ‘d eke effect of the war /to not been simply to c , embitter their relations, but to de velop a rooted antagonism which makes their per manent fusion in one political community an air solvte The sole difference between us, then, is in the degree of hostility we Mid existing be tween the races, and its probable permanence. You assume that tile extension of the right of suffrage to the blacks, tearing Mein intermixed with the whites, will cure all the trouble. I be heve that it would rather be like the decisions in that outer darkness of which Stilton speaks, where "Chaos umpire sits. And by decision more embroils the fray." Here is hissolution Yes, as I believe with you, that the right to life end liberty are inalienable, and more than admit the danger of leaving a laboring class of at the entire mercy of those who iortnerly owned them as slaves, you will say I am bound to furnish some solution of the problem which shall not deny the right or incur the peril. So 1 am, and the only real solution which Lean ice is the peaceable separation of the races. But, you reply, foreign colonization will break down hopelessly under the very vastness of the labor, even if it were not tyrannical enough to expel these unfortunate people from the land of their birth. I grant the lull weight of the objection, and therefore say the solution is thus narrowed down to a peaceable separation of the races on the soil where they now are. The unanialgamating quality of the races is the ground of General Cox's belief, "as during these four years of war," says he, " I have pon dered this problem in the intervals of strife, or by the camp fire at night, I have been snore and more impelled to the belief that the only basis of permanent nationality is to be found in complete homogeneity of people, of man ners, and of laws. The rapid fusion of the races of Western Europe, as they have met upon our shores, has secured the former of these requisites, anti the Yankee race (I adopt the epithet as an honorable one) marked as it is with salient characteristics, is so complete an amalgamation of all families from the Eastern boundary of Germany to the Western coast of Ireland, that there are few of us in whose veins are not mixed the blood of several. But this unhappy race of which we speak does not amalgamate with the rest. It is entirely immaterial to discuss why it is so the fact no one can deny; nor can it be denied that its salvation or its destruction will surely be worked out in its /amity isolation," Ana he follows this unquestionable logic, with two ex pressions which strike us as many unanswera ble. They are : Ist. Because there could be no real unity of people between the Southern whites and Southern - blacks, it seems manifest that there could be no Z,otitiealwnitu, but rather a strife for the mastery, in which the one or the other would go to the wall. And Ph The struggle forthe supremacy Wetad be so direct and immediate that the leather reeehouict be reduced to hopeless subjection or utterly de stroyed. There is no reason to suppose that Missouri border ruffianism could never be re peated on new fields, and the strife once inau gurated, the merciless war would continue as long-as the obnoxious race had an existence. These embrace the spirit and meaning of General Cox , s opinions, and indicate great sa gacity and temperance of judgment. His views are new and will supply food for reflec tion. General Cox, lathe treatment of the negro 'question, takes the same line of argument which has been pursued from the first by the Times, and his letter is therefore particularly agreeable tO UP as coinciding with our own po sition. It may lose him sOl2lO votes, but in our juda meat it will Make him ten to one which it, will cost him.
