Major General Slocum, in accordano with tnstructions from the Brosidont, issued an order, under date of the 4th inst., revoking his previous one forbidding the cn- rolment of the Stato troops called for by Provisional Governor Sharkey's proclamation, The General says that at the time he issued the prohibitory order he be- lieved it to be in accordance with the policy of the goy- ernment. It is said that Governor Parsons, of Alabama, is in favor of the constitutional convention, now in session at Montgomery, making provision for the admittance of negro testimony in the courts of the State, Goneral Swayne, Assistant Commissioner of the Freed- men’s Bureau for Alabama, has issued ordors, which have been approved by General Wood, the military com- | mander, and Provisional Governor. Parsons, directing that all contracts for labor between the planters and negroes, to be binding, must be reduced to writing; that for the protection of the latter class these contracts will form a lien on the crops, and that for the protection of the planters all the negroes who refuse to comply with tho stipulations will be arrested as vagrants, and com- pelled to resume work. The citizens of Marengo and other Alabama counties have petitioned Governor Parsons: to interpose for the removal of Colonel Lynch, of the Fifth Wisconsin cavalry, on the ground that the expres- sion of his sentiments tends to negro insurrection. The Secretary of the Treasury has issued a circular letter to the customs collectors, requiring a more risid compliance with the revenue laws on the part of the commanders of revenue cutters. It is not sufficient that the officers in question should merely speak incoming vessels; but they thust board and examiné them, and if anything suspicious is observed must remain on them till the point of destination is reached, They are also required, in addition to their other duties, to maintain a goneral surveillance of the coast, and the custom of using revenue cutters for pleasure parties is to be put a stop to. In the council at Fort Smith, Arkansas, on Thursday of this week, a new treaty of friendship and peace with the government was signed by delegates representing the Osage, Seminole, Creck, Chickasaw, Cowskin, Seno- ca, Shawnee, Choctaw and Quapaw tribes of Indians. ‘They abjure the conhtions of their people with the rebels, and pledge themselves hereafter to know no supreme national authority but that of the United States.

Judge Advocate Genoral Holt has written a communi- cation, which we print this mornmg, in vindication of his own conduct at the commencement of the rebellion, and in reply tothe recent charges by Mr. Montgomery Blair in his specch that soveral members of the Cabinet dailied with the rebels, and opposed the sending of rein- forcements to the beleaguered national garrison in Fort Sumter. In support of bis statements Judge Holt intro- duces letters from General Scott, Hon. Preston King and other gentlemen of eminence, In anawor to the charges of Mr. Blair and others that tary Seward was one of the members of Mr. Lin- | evin’s Cabinet who opposed the succor of the natioual garrisons ia the harbors of Charleston and Pensacola in April, 1861, Brevet Major Genersl Meigs, who was con- nocted with the expedition that went to the relief of the | Jatter, states that, on the contrary, it originated with Mr. Seward, and its perfection was most ably assisted by him. In the case of the habeas corpus writ sued out by Mra, Lizzie Wolff for the recovery of the person of her lost } youthinl husband, who disappeared a few days after the nuptial coremony, nothing particularly interesting was de- veloped yesterday. An accordance with the agreement entered into on Thursday, several witnesses were exmin- ined, with the object of proving that the father of the hnsband had been instromental in causing his gon to quit the bed and board of his young bride; but the testi- mony was very imperfect and defective, On spplication of Mrs. Wolff's counsel, the case was again adjourned to euable other witnesses to be examined m her behal’. Jndge Russel sentenced a large number of prisoners yosterday in the Court of General Sessions. Peter Heffer- nan, who was convicted of stealmg a box of watehcs at a store in Maiden lane, in 1862, was sent to the State Prison for one year.

The administration of Andrew Johnson, we have every reason to believe, will go down to history in admirable keeping with that of the Inmented Abraham Lincoln. The name of Lincoln is linked with immortal glory in the suppression of the most formidable rebellion the world has ever known, and so will the name of Johnson, we believe, become an en- during name of honor and renown in com- pleting the great work left upon bis bands by his lamented predecessor. Amid unprece- dented difficulties and complications, striking out bravely and boldly in his policy of South- ern restoration, no President in the history of the country has gained more rapidly than Andrew Johnson the respect and confidence of the great body of the people, North and South. The managing politicians of both the great parties of the day recognize his popularity and the danger of breaking with him. A few weeks ago there were substantial reasons for the opinion that we were on the verge of a fatal disruption of the republican party on negro suffrage, confiscation, &c. The empty boasts and boisterous threatenings of the abo- lition radicals, however, have proved not half so dangerous as they at first appeared. Thoir impotency has been conclusively established in the late Massachusetts Republican Conven- tion. The President of that body was Charles Sumner, a conspicuous light among those im- placable fanatics who wonld visit upon the subdued and submissive South the revenges of Marius and Sylla, of Rome, the sweeping punishments of William the Conqueror, or the blind and reckless fury of the French Reign of Terror. The studied address of Sumner was that of a Jacobin, and the audience most likely to adopt his bloody instructions was a Maseachusetis convention of his own party. But the resoluiions of the convention tell a different story. The republican party of Mas- | ner, and have “ cordially” endorsed the South- ern restoraiion policy of President Johnson, past, present and prospective. If euch is the course of the dominant party of Massachusetts, where the democracy have no hope of a resurrection, we may safely con- clude that the sagacious managers of the re- publican.church throughout the country will take good care to hold fast to the bnttonhole of Andy Johnson, Such bigoted, malignant and sanguinary radical leaders as Sumnez, Thaddeus Stevens, Wendel! Phillips, the saints of the Independent, and the abolition negro suffrage directors of the Boston Board of ‘Trade, will be cut loose and cast adrift. At the same time the copperhead leaders of the democracy in this State, that State and the other, will keep the party in hot water and at cross purposes for some time longer. The conservative repub- licane, thus holding the vantage ground of occupation, will form, around the nucleus of the administration, together with the conserva- tive Union elements of the South, the ruling party of the future. The abolition radicals, in their efforts to supplant President Johnson in 1865, are proving as impotent as in their efforts to supersede President Lincoln in 1864, Their ontside movements against Mr. Lincoln for the Bullimore Convention were apparently at first very power- fal and very extensive from the noise they made; but when put to the test of a State convention, East or West, they proved to be mere “fuss and fury, signifying nothing.” So it is now with all the noisy threatenings of thie noisy radical faction. Vhelr sanguinary teachings have been rejected by every republican State convention yet held, and the bulk of the party, East and West, as it adhered to Lincoln adheres to Johnson. It | will not sacrifice the substantial power, profits | and advantages of ihe administration for the questionable honors of the Jacobin club. We conclude, therefore, as the Southern restoration policy and the foreign indemnifica- tion policy of President Jobnson command the confidence of the country, and as the con- servative elements of the republican party are with the administration and intend to stick to it through thick and thin, that they, with the conservatives of the South, under Andrew | Johnson, will be moulded into the ruling party | ofthe future. ‘They hold the ground, they have | the power and the materials for this command- | ing organization, and they know that Andrew Johnson will stick to them if they stick to him. They ave bound together by the strong bonds of four years of bloody war, aud by Johnson’s | humane and conciliatory policy of Southern | reconstraction, which broadly reflects the gen- | erous teachings of Abrabam Lincoln. Abolf- | tion radicals and implacable secessionisis and copperheads: will be cast out of the new poll | fieal church. It will be a solla and homoge- | neous party of Union men, upon the new plat- form of universal Mberty and constitutional law. their ground against veteran soldiers. We see, too, from the doings and movemenis of the appperheagsa here and elsewhere, that they consent rather to use the administration than to join it. Thus, with all these and all other intractfbles turned adrift, the ruling party for the remainder of the nineteenth century will be formed from the conservative republicans and affiliating democrats of the North, together with the genuine Union men of the South, on the broad and substantial platform of Andrew Johnson’s administration. Tue Sovramrn SraTesMEN aNnp THR Nicarr- HEAvS.—I' is very evident that the negro wor. shippers of the North estimate the Southern character by their own standard. They are constantly charging them with hypocrisy, and with manifesting a desire to return to the Union only for the purpose of deceiving the North and thon secure an opportunity to carry out their secession dogmas. It is well known that the niggerheads of the North are, as pub- lic men, the most unreliable in the country. They are constantly professing one thing one hour and doing the very reverse the next. There is no reliance whatever to be placed upon their professions. But in basing their judgment of the Southern people upon their own standard, they fall very short of the known character of those people. It is well understood that the Southern men are open and above board with their deeds, Long before the war commenced they in- formed us that they intended to break up this Union. They made no secrecy of this fact, nor the least attempt to conceal it. On the stump, in their own State legislative halls and in both houses of Congress it was proclaimed with- out any effort or desire to disguise it. So it always has been; but the trouble was that the Northern people would not believe them. Now that the war is over they are equally bold in proclaiming their determination and willingness to abide by the result and come back and be good and faithful men to the con- stitution and Union, accepting all the conse- quences of the war. This they are just as honest and earnest in as they were in their as- sertions to break up the Union when the war commenced. But the radical negro worshippers know that they themselves are full of hypocrisy, and judge everybody else by their own stand- ard. The President, who was brought up among the Southern people and fully under- stands their character, does not view them in that light, but, on the other hand, assures them that he is satisfied that whatever they promise they will do. The public believe the President is the best judge, and prefer to follow him rather than the niggerheads. Waunte anp Biogpertno.—The heads ot the Corporation ring—whom we suppose to be Brennan, Boole, Cornell, Tweed & Co.— are whining and blubbering at sad rate be- cause we found it necessary to declare their inefficiency to manage the government of the city properly. They claim that we onght not to have done so, on the grounds of their old friendship to us. On that score we may say that we have often acted the part of a friend to them, in giving them good advice at times— advice which they always admitted was excel- lent, and were duly grateful for when they recetved it, but which they were too mean and too blind to follow. We are not in need of Corporation patronage, nor any other patron- age but that which we receive from the public. Thus while we have often proved a friend to the discontented leaders of the Corporation ring they never had an opportunity of returning the favor. Now they are groaning and whining through one of their weekly organs at a terrible rate. When we give them good advice again they will take it. Tsx New Barsartans.—For the past twenty years Sumner, Wendell Phillips, Wilson, Ste- vens and men of that stamp have been com- plaining about the barbarism of the Southera leaders, whose violent political careers finally terminated in the rebellion. In regard to the Southern leaders this complaint was just. They were barbarians, they acted like barbarians, and they have met a barbarian’s fate, hoving been killed, imprisoned or driven into exile. But as soon as the country is rid of this gang ot barbarians snother gang springs up, and it is composed of such men as Sumner, Wendell Phillips, Wilson and Stevens. They adopt ‘the barbarous policy of inaugurating another mas- sacre, In order to exterminate the white people of the South and give the negroes full sway. Iu this they imitate the example of Marius «nd Sylla,in the old Roman Era, and of Robe- spierre during the French revolution. They ery “wo to the conquered,” and they would again drench half the land in blood. We warn the American people against these new barba- rians—these Northern rebels. Unless they re- linqnish their barbaric ideas the country will know neither rest nor peace until they are killed, imprisoned or exiled, like the barhba- rian rebel leaders of the South. Raptcat. Diery Lixen.—One of the worai | specimens of radical dirty linen is Carl Schurz, who has just received an emphatic rebuke | from President Johnson for meddling in the Mississippi militia muddle. In all probability Schurz is nothing but a spy of the radicals, sent down South to checkmate the President's policy if he can. This last escapade of his should insure his immediate recall and dis- missal, Tae Potrrivat, Sirvation ty THE Repusracan Parry.—As maiters now stand the real ques- tion in the republican party appears to be who shall control it. Shall the President give direc- tion, purpose and tone to it, or shall it take its tone and shape from Sumner, Phillips, Stevens and the reat of the radicals? We suspect that President Johnson, who happens to he in pos- session of the citidel and all the arms, will prove to be the controlling power. Suwver Lecrunina Axprew Jonnson.—Sena- tor Sumner, in his speech before the republican convention in Massachusetts, talked as though he were President of ihe United States and Mr. Johnson one of his subordinate officials, to whom he was issuing orders. Apvice To GREELEY AND b—Thurlow Weed once came to Fort Washington for advice. But he wae too conceited to take it. Brennan, Boole & Co. twice came to Fort Washing- ion for advice during the war. They had the sagacity to see that ihe advice was good, but they had the meanness not to act upon it, or they would have stood in different positions from those they ocoupy to-day. Horace Gree- an opportunity If ho will only take ,it If he will take in the Republican Conventio,’ im this State the position marked out by the 2esolu- tions of the Massachusetts Convention—w bich fs not the position of Phillips, Sumner, Sieve. , or the drunken Senators from the Northwest- - he may sweep all, and yet have the next chance as Senator from this State. We rather favor Greeley, but we are not certain that he has the courage to go the right way,even when he sees it, Tue Buxevouenr Howarp.—General Howard is managing the bureau for the support of big, fat buck niggers with great piety and success, But we wonder if he reserves a ninety-ninth part of the benevolence that is in his pious and charitable heart for the four millions of poor women in the cities of the North, East, West and South, who are suffering more than the buck niggers ever did, and who are totally ignored by the government. Herrmann’s Necromantic Eastern Delu- silo Had the wonderful conjurer who is performing nightly at the Academy of Music to crowded and delighted audiences lived and performed as he does now in former times, he would have been burned as ademon in human form. In ancient times or in pagan countries be would have been deified. Even in these enlightened times people do not feel quite certain that there 1s not something super- human in him, or that he has not a secret connoction with the other world, We have seen mysterious and shrink- ing glances at his fect as he passed along, though thoy seem to have the ordinary form of human fee!. Many persons believe that his open declaration of having nothing to do with spirits, either evil or good, is only made to hide the fact. Such persons say, naturally enough, that the real spirits, or their agents or mediums, have never done anything as extraordinary as Herrmann, and therefore he must perform through the powers give nby the spirits, though he denies it. This logic is very spiritualistic, aud the inference may be as stated for what we know. All we do know is that the performances are most astonnding and incomprehen- sible, and we aro satisfied that if those sapient individu- als who ara trying the spirits at Hope Chapel were to try their hands on Herrmann they would find a much harder nut to crack than in the Davenports, Thorpes, Colches- ter, or any other spiriiualists or conjurers, A steady, sensible looking gentleman who first saw Herrmann per: form last evening gave expression to Lis astonishment by saying, “If any one lad told me such things av T have seen, before T saw them, I should have pitched into him for lying and insult'ng ine.” And really the feats per- Fan are 80 incredible to those who have not seen them. Almost all the tricks are new. None of them have Deen seen in this country before, and some of them are recent creations of Herrmann’s fertile brain. The Japanese frame or car trick is one of these, This frame hasa glass face and looks like a small looking glass. Tt is held up on the stage some distance from the conjurer, and at his motion only—not tonch—the carda, which persons in the gudience bave drawn from a pack or thought of, spring into the frame, showing their “aces through the glaas to the audience, when cach one recog. nizes the card drawn or thought of. The frame is then taken to pieces and handed around to show there is no concealed mechan'sm in it. The egg. “ching ching,” trick is another new one, and very astonish'ng.
