When Titus had compassed Jerusalem with the Roman legions, and was vigorous!y pros: cuting the siege, history tells us that the sedi tiovs of the Jews within the city ceased not, and that the factions continually waxed more bitter against each other, until all were in- volved in one common ruin. ‘The madness that seized upon the Jewish leaders when the Romans were at their gates seems to-day to have seized upon the leaders of the democratic party; and they exhibit among themselve; their Eleazar, their Joha, and their Simon, making relentless war upon each other, in the face of the common enemy. The factions quarrels which have marked the history of that party, in Congress and out of it, for the last three years, which raged with bit- ternees at Charleston, and have been continued on the floor of the Senate, threaten to recur at Richmond and Baltimore, with increased bit- terness, under ciroumstances in the position of the party organization analogous to that of the Jews before the fall of their city. A compact, zealous and enthusiastic poli- tical organization bas set itself in order for the coming political campaign, the prize of vic- tory in which is the administration of the federal government, with its eighty or one hundred millions'of annual spoils, for the next four years, and political preponderance’ for a generation in the confederation, if it does not involve it in civil war, anarchy and ruin, long before the expiration of that period. The acknowledged ead and aim of that party are the introduction of certain abstract mora! avd socml ideas in the rule of government, and the administration of political power inaccordance therewith. These ideas, congenial in many things with the feelings of the people of the Northern States, are antagonistic to those of the Soutb, and in direct hostility to the existing so- cial organization of the Southern States. The Jeaders of the party supporting these ideas have therefore proclaimed an “irrepressible conflict” with the South, and have nominated as their standard bearer for the campaign a long, lean, lank and livid man, whose want of practical statemanship and mental calibre will keep him always under the influence of the most radical and dangerous of his partisans. Their scheme of policy iavolves the most hazardous innovations in the interpretation of the constitution, and the introduction of the most pernicious theories in political adminis- tration that can be gonceived of. Spooner has laid down with great clearness and vigor the logical sequence of the black republican argu- ment, from the first assertion of the individual rights of man to the practical enforcement of the black republican doctrine by the federal courts, through the appointment of abolition judges, the issuance of writs of habeas corpus, and the liberation ofevery slave in the South under the protection of the federal army and navy. Helper, endorsed by sixty-e'ght black republican members of Congress, bas exhibited the spirit of animosity in which the Spooner theories would be administered, in case that party triumphs in the coming Presi- dential election. A few insane Southern sec- tionaliste foster this state of things, in order to advance their own wild ideas of a Southern confederacy. In view of these possibilities, which would involve the fifteen Southern States in a desperate struggle for self preserva- tion, and the whole Union in a destructive and ruinous civil war, the sentiment of national life is rousing itself for the preservation of the Union and the national prosperity. But be- tween the people and the true issue stand the professional politicians, with their abstract dis- tinctions and personal differences, for the sole purpose of advancing thelr own ambitious views. The factions which are to-day fostered by the managers of the democratic local organiza- tions are precisely of the same character, and can only lead them to the same political re- sults as those that marke the course of the Jewish leaders in the presence of the Roman army. Passion has carried those of the North and those of the South, Douglas and Davis alike, farther than reason can possibly carry the people in the support of either. They aseume to differ on the question of the intro- duction of or legislation on slavery in the Territories, when the real question is the preservation of the Southern States from a legal and armed invasion. Even if they were to come to an agreement on the policy to be pursued in the Territories, they could not, by their action in Congress, make or unmake a slave State. This effort has been tried by the politicians in Kansas, and has signally failed. As regards the South, what would it gain if its foolish politicians should drive Douglas to the wall, or even force him to acquiesce in a submission to them in which the people of the North will not follow him? No other result can possibly follow than the elec- tion of the black republican nominee as Presi- dent. Where, then, would the South be, with Lincoln in the Presidency, and the government administered under the theories of the Spooner pamphlet, and in the spirit of the Helper book ? It is time for the politicians te reflect upon the inevitable result of their present personal quarrels over a eet of impracticable ab- stractions. They are carrying themselves, all of them, to the ruin of their political and. per- sonal fortunes, and the country into a conflict and an anarchy which can but produce the direst results. It is not for Southern politicians or Northern politicians to claim purity of motives, immaculateness of conduct, or unself- ish views, as peculiarly their own. The people are beginning to understand the charac- ter of the profersional politician, and to know that those now in the arena are all alike, whether they come from the North or from the South. None of the cliques in the present con- test can command the confidence of the whole country, let whoever may triumph; while, if they Iny aside their personal contests, and unite at Baltimore on some national and con- servative man, whom all caa support, they can carry the coming Presidential electiéa by such & popular endorsement as will not leave halfa ceipts prevented any advance, and the market, eepeciaiiy | 4070 States to the support of the radical and for State and Western, closed at yesterday's quotatims | Gestructive theories of the black republigan Front wae Gem, with gales to 9 lair quieut, including | leaders. xT TICE taken of anonymous correspondence.

CORNER OF THIRTERNTH STREBT AND FOUBTIL AVASUK —Catironais MenaGanip. TRIPLE SHEET. Hew York, Saturday, May 26, 1860. The News. In Corgress yesterday the Senate resumed the consideration of the so-called Davis resolutions, relative to the protection of slavery ia the Terri- tories, and after some discussion and voting down sundry amendments, the balance of the series was adopted by a strict party vote. These resolutions— which are given complete in our special despatch from Washington—were adopted by a caucus of thirty democratic Senators on the 25th of Feb- rusry last, and they bave now received an offi- cial endorsement. They now derive additional importance from the circumstance that they will in all probability form the basis of the Bouthern Becession Democratic Convention which meets at Richmond on the 11th of next month. The Fiaance Committee reported back the Post Office Deficiency bill, with sundry amendments The Overland Mail bill, the private calendar and the Indian Appropriation bill were taken up, but no action was taken on them. The House passed several! private bills, and referred the Benate bill providing for the return of captured ne- groes to Africa to the Judiciary Committee. Our Washington correspondent states that Mr. Appleton, Assistant Secretary of State, yesterday resigned his post, and that Mr. William Heary ‘Trescott, of South Carolina, has been appointed to the vacancy. Mr. Appleten will, it is said, go abroad, probably as Minister to Russia. ‘The Japanese yesterday were engaged in receiv- ing members of Congress and their wives, in ac- cordance with previous arrangement, The Am- Dbassadors also dined with the President. Inanother column we publish a very interesting letter de- Boribing the visit of the Ambassadors and suite to the State Department on the occasion of the ratifi- cation of the treaty. The writer also describes an interview he had with the Orientals, their costame, their rule of life, and what they eat and drink. From all accounts some of the Japanese are by no means averse to stimulating beverages. The United States steam frigate Niagara, which sailed hence the 19th for Panama, returned to port yesterday morning, having sprung @ leak, and has at present four feet of water in her hold, with the pumps constantly going. The Niagara con- tinued to leak during the afternoon and evening of yesterday. Her powder was taken out immediate- ly after her return, and was put in the magazine on Ellis island. In the Cireait Court yesterday, the Grand Jury rendered a bill against Beecher and seven others, seamen on board the ship William F. Storer, charged with creating a mutiny on board that ves" sel in the harbor on Tuesday last. The Grand Jury also rendered an indictment against the late Pepaty Marshals Rynders aud Mann, charged with permit- ting the alleged slaver Storm King to escape. We have received letters from our U‘ah corres pondent dated at Salt Lake City on the 15th inst., and which were forwarded by the Pony Express. ‘The investigation into the affairs of Dr. Forney, the Superintendent of Indian Affairs, charged with malfeasance in office, was progressing, and was creating considerable excitement among the Gen- tiles, and no little merriment among the “Saints.” Twelve days had already been exhausted in the investigation, but nothing, it was alleged, had been elicited to sustain the charges. The news of the organization of the New Mormon Church by young Jo. Smith had reached Utah, and did not cause any considerable excitement among the elders, and they contend that young Smith's mother is at the head of the movement. A heavy snow storm occurred at Salt Lake and vicinity during the early part of this month; snow fell to the depth of eiga- teen incbes, which caused several hundred thou sand dollars damage to the fruit trees and crops. ‘Tire Indians of the northern part of the Territory, in the Bear river region, who have been for a long time troublesome to the whites, have sent in a de- legation to propose terms of peace. A fatal row occurred at an amateur theatre at Camp Fleyd, on the 7th inst., when a general fusilade of small arms took place, and several men were fatally injured. About half-past nine o'clock yesterday morning the front wall of the building No. 625 Broadway, which is being demolished, gave way and fell upon the street and sidewalk, burying in the rains four laborers, named James Snullivan, Pat Monahan, A. Monks, and Timothy Donohue, who were engaged at work. Tyo policemen were promptly on hand, and proceeded to extricate the men from their perilous position. Sallivan and Monahan were dis- covered in an insensible condition, terribly bruised, the latter having 8 compound fractare of the leg, ‘and injuries to the head. They were speedily con- veyed to the City Hospital, where the physicians administered all the relief in their power. Thetwo other men fortunately sustained no serious in- jaries, end were able to walk home after having their wounds dressed. It is feared that the injaries ‘of Monahan and Sullivan will prove fatal. The ac cident is thought to be the result of cafelessness on the part of the persons conducting the work of Rearing down the building. The Commissioners of Excise held a meeting yes- Rerday, at which they received five applications for licenses, four of which were granted, and one re- fased, because of some informalities in the papers. They adjourned till to-day at noon. ‘The cotton market was steady yesterday, while the males About 600 2 800 bales, closing at the qu>- Aations given in another place.

Whenever and wherever the press has been free as 8 great latterly that the press has been free anywhere. In Great Britain, for many years, the newspaper was nothing more than an offi- cial gazette, controlled, of course, by the go- vernment. One by one, however, euccessive Parliaments, in obedience to the popular will have removed the shackles imposed upon the press. In like manner the leading journalists, feeling the extent of their responsibilities, have labored to make themselves worthy of the great power which they wield—a power of so much importance as to have come to be considered, and generally acknowledged, as an estate of the realm. In France, the first revolution made the pen the governing power in the land, and to-day the aphorism of the First Napoleon as to the comparative importance of. bayonets holds as good as ever. except for a short time during the administra- tion of John Adams, been entirely free, so far as the law isconcerned. But there is a species ofserfdom outside of the law. In the early days of the republic, to 1830, the political editor was looked upon leader. Madison or Mr, Monroe, or Mr. Jackson, or Mr. Clay, or Mr. Calhoun, and the servants of Mr. Webster and Mr. J.Q. Adams,were not under the control of those statesmen to a greater degree than the printers of the pafty organs. Like the Roman centurion, the statesman command- ed the journalist todo such and such a thing, and he didit. If he rebelled he was turned out, and "a more plastic person assumed the tripod. The natural consequence of this slavery was the utter prostitution of the press te party purposes, the editors lending them- selves to the politicians for the purpose ef humbuggisg the people, until the time came when the people lost all confidence in either one or the other. dependent press. Then the politicians, who rarely learn anything until after every one else has certain that they could not control those worth having. Theat was the first point gained. While the old race of po- litical editors, were dying out new men as- sumed the direction of the press. Journalism rose to the dignity of a special profession; in- stead of being considered as a refuge for small politicians, with the collar of their masters about their necks and the whip ever suspended over their backs, it came to be acknowledged as a power equal to that of the government it- eelf. Instead of being made by statesmen, the journalist made himself, and the statesmen as well. The second pointto be considered was whether or not the leading statesmen of the day could be brought to such sense of the and a hat of doubtful color and inan advanced stage of decomposition, Governor Seward was already a party leader. A man of profound Greeley was selected as Mr. Seward’s Man Friday, and served him faithfully during four- teen years. Daring all this time the metropoli- tan press bad been keeping pace with the pro- grees of the city, and Mr. Greeley was one of the leading journalists. He demanded a cer- tain recognition at the hands of Mr. Seward. This, it appears, was denied, when the jour- beau and Louis Nepoleost s'l rolled Into one mac, add sheltered by the game projecting beaver. ‘The moral of this contest may be easily un- derstood. Its result is « practical ¢templifica- tion of the power now wielded by « leading journalist, and @ warning to stetesn’en to beware how: they attempt to ignore it. Mr. Seward was no ordinary victim, and his 1.vte should be as a beacon light to other official personages who may be wedded to the old prejudices respecting the press. It remains now especially to be seen whether or not the lengthy, lanky Hoesier politician who has been brought forward through the irrepressi- bleconflict betweea the Senator and the editor will profit by the moral lesson which the down- fall of Mr. Seward affords him. The effect of the whole affair upon the public mind cannot fail to be of the most salutary description. Tae Wasuiseton Heicuts Jos—Tue Game or THs CommssioneRs BLockep.—The Washing- ton Heights Commissioners have been holding meetings recently, here and there and every- where, sometimes at the top of the hill and sometimes at the foot, Their chief trouble for the present is the disposal of the only salaried office connected with the commission—that of Secretary. There is a quarrel about this firat instalment of the spoils. One Commissioner wants it for his relative, another for his friend, and they cannot agree about the proper person to select, because two or three hundred dollars are attached to the office. This shows that the whole business is a job—a part of the extensive system of plunder organ- ized in the last Legislature, with Thurlow Weed at the head on one side, and the Hon. Dick -Connolly at the head on the other. There is nothing can escape their segacity. The sanctity of private dwell- ings, the laws of nature and of public health, are alike violated in the prosecution of their schemes. So odious and so revolting had the corruption of the last Legislature become, that it was a main cause of the recent defeat of one of the greatest Northern statesmen the country has prodaced, and will probably soon result in the defeat of another. The fact of Thurlow Weed, the right hand man of Seward, being the leader of the republican eection of the spoi's- men in that Legislature, was quoted against Seward at Chicago, anddid him the most se- rious damage. Indeed, it is contended by those who know all the ropes, that it was this alone that killed him in the Convention; and the fact that Hon. Dick Connolly, the principal Douglas man in New York, led the democratic freebooters on the other side of the two houses of the Legislatare, has had its effect on the for- tunes of “the Little Giant” at Chirleston, and will probably finish him off at Baltimore. Such is the effect of the political friendship of these men, who plan the levelling of mountains and the filling up of seas as sources of plunder for themselves and their accomplices. Let any man visit Washington Heights, and he will soon see the enormity of the rascality that could deliberately mar one of the most beautiful spots in the country—one of the finest suburbs in the world. All that is wanted to be done for this magnificent rus in urbe is to let it alone. Let the property owners themselves, who are the best judges of their own interests, lay out the grounds as they think proper, and as the increase of population from time to time may demand. But let them not be saddled with a ruinous expense for cutting useless roads through steep hills, which, so far from benefitting the owners of the pro- perty, or improving the locality, would We desire to draw particular attention to the publication, in another part of this journal, of Mr. Greeley’s reply to the amanuensis of Mr. Seward, and the debate in the British House of Commons, ia both of which there are some important developements as to the position of a leading independent journalist, conducting self-supporting newspaper, and directing public opinion in a far greater degree than any poli- tictin, however successful, can hope to do.

Tue Scantet Lerrer rrom GreeLey To Sewanv.—In the manifesto of the Tribune phi- losopher it will be noticed that he calls for the of a letter which he wrote to Seward in 1854. Greeley says that he has quite forgotten the contents of the epistle re- ferred to, but tbat he will print it entire in the Trikune if the original manuscript is sent to him. It is understood that there are one or more copies of this new Scarlet letter in exist- ence, and its general purport is said to beas fol- lows :—Greeley recites all his griefs, from the time of Harrison—when the New York Post Office was desired by him, and was given to another person—down to 1854, when he wished to go on the State ticket, but received the cold shoulder from Weed and Seward. To make Greeley's disappointment more bitter, Raymond, who was personally obnoxious to the 7rilune editor, was put on for Lieutenant Governor, & post which the former coveted. In view of all theee things, Greeley has come to the con- clusion to ignore the Seward and Weed clique altogether. The object of Greeley’s ambition since 1856 has been « place in the Cabinet, as Postmaster General, and he hopes to get it if “Old Abe” should possess the kingdom. It is quite time that the text of that ‘Scarlet letter, and the particulars of some other matters ger- mane to the same subject, were given to the world. Altogether, they would make a very piquant brochure, and just the thing for light reading in the summer season. Troveix mw tue Croros Boann.—There is said to be great trouble just now in the Croton Board, arising from mismanagement and neglect on one side and peculations of officers on the other, which will probably lead to the dismis- eal of clerks or an explosion of some kind. The disorder ought to be immediately inquired into by Mayor Wood, now that he has returned from Charleston and has leisure to look after municipality matters. THe is jastthe man to probe it to the bottom. He has the ability and the will to do his duty, and if he will cast aside party politics for the present, as he ought to do, be will be one of the best, most efficient and influential Mayors that ever presided over the Corporation. He has seen his enemies, Sickles and Fowler, overthrown by their own acts, and he stands to-day firmly established in the favor of the people. No public man has ever stood so severe an ordeal. He comes out new order of things that they weuld acknow- ledge the fact that a first class editor in a first class city wielded an influence and occupied a porition quite equal to that of a first class gtateeman. That question brings us to the especial matter under consideration—namely, the affair between Seward and Greeley. When Mf. Greeley came to this city, some- thing over twenty years ago, with nothing in the way of personal or real property ex- cept his historical white coat, eeedy trowsers, talent, with manners at once suave and refined; thoroughly well educated, patient, energetic and persevering, his future could hardly be other than bright. Greeley had popular char- acteristics, and a mental organization that quite supplied all which Mr. Seward lacked. So nalist proceeded to inform the statesman that henceforth they would walk in different paths. Mr. Seward attempted to fill Greeley’s place with Raymond; but there was no comparison between the power of the men. In the strong- holds of the repwblican party the name of Greeley was at that time a mightier shibboleth than that of Seward himself. In 1856 Seward reeeived the first instalment of Greeley's revenge. The Tribune philosopher labored against the Sage of Auburn night and day, in and out of season, until the Philadelphia Convention put Mr. Seward out in the cold. The next chance for him was at Chicago, last week. It was known that Seward had set his heart on the nomination. It was demanded as his right No means were spared to secure it. The Convention was nothing more than the scene of a grand battle between one of the leading journalists and one of the most gifted statesmen in the country. Greeley triumphed; Seward is politically dead. Falstaff babbled of green fields, and Seward talks wildly about his barns. Both the Senator and his amanu- ensis charge the whole responsibility of the Chicago nomination upon Greeley. That philosopher must be considered, then, as the new leader of the republican party—the War- wick In their camp. Such is the fickleness of the popular heart that Seward’s supporters have already deserted him—a magnificent split- ter of hairs*for # vulgar mauler of rails; and when the truculent Greeley enters the councils of the party he is received with cheers such as never greeted him before.
