Nations of every European despotism, and 80 ab” ‘herrent to all the ideas of a free people, receives ‘remarkable iHustration by the evidence pro- duced on the inv -against Police Superintendent Kennedy. It is @hown to be the most dangerous and hideous ever invented against the rights and Uiberties of the human race. This abomination was inangurated by the ‘War Department, and is at this moment in full “Dlast. It {s a disgrace to any country claiming ‘to be free.

But from the ‘developments in the Brinsmade case, as well a8 from the records of the system in other ‘Countries, it is notorious that innocence is no wrofection against the machinations of detec- ‘tive adventurers who desire to distinguish them” ‘selves, and are not very scrupulous about what they say, do or swear. According to the testi- ‘mony produced before the Police Commissioners, -@ guiltless man or woman might be kidnapped sand imprisoned for weeks and months, and wafter all nobody would be responsible. The ‘War Department clears its skirts, Baker clears ‘his skirts, Kennedy clears his skirts, and Bowles ‘clears his. Eaeh shifts the burden on the other) sand nobody is to blame. We, however, have an opinion on the subject. Baker, Kennedy ‘and Bowles are mere tools of the system, and, ‘when necessary, scapegoats. The responsible ‘party ia the War Department at Washington: “The system, as carried out, is worse than any ‘that has ever prevailed in Russia, Austria or ‘France. We appeal to the patriotism and the «good sense of the President to put it down. Unsiontsu Down Sovra.—The’ interesting sstatement which we published on Monday rrom -MrMontgomery, late of the Vicksburg Whig, ‘xevives confidence in the fact which has been so -strenuously denied by the sympathizers with re- ‘bellion, that there is plenty of sound Union feeling down South. It requires but a reason- able assurance that the policy of ptoscription and spolistion proclaimed by the radicals is mot to be that of the government to develop Gt more extensively. The conduct of the pre- eent miserable Cabinet had, in spite of the con- vgetvative tendencies of the President, gone fat to destroy all hope of the possible defeat of that policy. The elections in the Central States, ‘which have already had for result a compul- ory return to constitutional forms and the iberation of a large number of persons illegally sand arbitrarily arreated, will restore faith in the Justice and humanity of the government, and Tevive the drooping hopes of the Union men of vthe South. It requires now but a great victory in Virginia to convert the feeling which Mr. ‘Montgomery tells us is latent amongst outhern men into active sympathy with our efforts. If that be obtained, the credit of Mc- ‘Clellan’s labors will devolve upon General ‘Burnside. If, on the contrary, disaster should attend our arms, the indignation and vengeance ~of the people will fall heavily upon those radi. -oals, both in and out of the Cabinet, who con- -@pired to effect McClellan’s removal. lasieal. “ [E0ORESIA BORGIA” aT THE ACADEMY OF MUBIC.

THE NAVAL OFFICE AT NEW YORK TO BH ABO- LISHED, ‘There is a rumor afloat bere that there will be an at. tempt made at the coming session of Congress to abolish the office ef Naval Officer at New York. The reasons as- signed’are that it is @ sinecure, and that it has never been of any service except to furnish a fat place for some pet of the administration, and to draw hundreds of thousands of dollars from the treasury. In the present embarrass- ing condition of our national finances it is believed that retrenchment and reform should be the order of the day, and it is more than probable that if the friends of this measure push it vigorously they will effect their object. TRE M’DOWRLL COURT OF INQUIRY. The McDowell court went into session at a quarter to twelve o’clock to-day, General Martindale having been detained by important business in bis department of Military Governor of Washington. After a closed session of three hours the following docision on the plan proposed by General McDowell io yesterday’s session was an- nounced :-— ‘The Court, having considered carefully the propositions; of Major General McDowell, decide to proceed to the in- vestigation in accordance with the following, making hereafter such modifieations or amplifications as may be suggested by the course of the procedings and may be deemed necessaryan- To examine and inquire into ery and all accusa- tions or imputations of treachery or disloyalty on the part of General McDowell, aid to examine and inquire wto his whole conduct asa general officer since ——., being the date on which General McClelan assumed command 0» the Army of the Potomac, For the convenience of the investigation, the aforementioned time will be divided as follows, being-the periods of time when General Me.

Third— The Department of the Rebpahannock, under the orders Of the President of.the United States and the War De- partment, from ——te ——.

Colonel R. D. Goodwin, who wrote a letter frem No, 66 St. Mark’s place, New York city, Sept. 24, 1862, and which was published in a New Yorg Sunday paper, ad- dressed to General McDowell, was ordered to be sum- ed as a witness in the case to substantiate his letter, which was ordered to be made a part of the evidence in the case. . ‘The Court decided that it would receive the depesitions of the witnesses named by General McDowell om the charge of drunkeaness, ‘The Recorder was directed to address a communication to the headquarters of the army requiring the attend- ance ef certain witnesses, after which the Court adjourned untjj to-morrow. McDowell in the Court to-day disavowed any desire to take away officers of the army,in active service to attend as witnesses, preferring, in his case, to suffer himself in the Court from their non-attendance rather than deprive the government of their services at this time if they are needed in the fleld.

They will present a definite plan in reference to the compensa- tion of assessors, which, under the law as passed, is less than nothing. By an oversight in framing this law the assessors, who really are required to perform the greater and moat important part of the work under the inte: revenue system, are offered no inducement for the faith. ful execution of their duties. This committeo will proba- bly agrep upon some remedy for this defect in the law, which will receive the approbation of tho Commissioner ‘and Seoretary of the Treasury and be adopted by Con- Gress.
