THE CASE OF Wikz. ‘There has as yet been no definite Executive action on the ‘ndings of the Wirz Commission, owing to the immense mass of evidence to be examided.

Our perfect knowledge of our informant’s character en- ables us to vouch for his information as being entitled to the most undoubted a: tine jomsaned in Loui "oid him i ibstance: our san in sul that so far as the equality of races was con- cerned, there could be but one opinion among all mon, North and South, and this was that, wherever the Anglo-Saxon race had come in contact with an inferior nate, That the Indian race, far superior to the black, had been utterly annihilated before the advance of the whites, and this, although the Indian race was morally and intellectually vastly superior to the black race. That DO sane man, no Al , could dream for a moment of making this country, where God had showered 50 many blessings to the race made after his own image, the inheritance of any but those he had endowed with an intelligénce all but divine. The'question of labor sinks into insignificance before that of and the marci of human progress is not to be si by the idle theo- ries of dreamers. # THR DEBT. ‘The next question which that intelligent and sagacious statesman touched was that of our poblic debt. Large as it may be, it has nothing caloulated to strike terror or create diacoarasinea in our people, England, how- ever great her credit abroad, could never have stood the brunt of her public debt, small as is its interest, had not nearly the whole of the evidences of that debt been held at home, instead of abroad. By a judicious exercise of the supreme powers of Con- gress, combined with the patriotism of our people, Secre- tary McCulloch <spe9 and very justly, too, to be able, not only to keep the debt at home, but to reduce the m- terest most materially, The rash, crude and undigested measures of Secretary Chase have overflown the country with evidences of debt at arate of interest and short maturitics as never before were witnessed in the world; but his successor very truly expects to convince the people that the longer the term and the lower tho interest the safer becomes the investment. By such intelligent process ag a man of financial capacities can devise, the interest of the debt, which now exceeds six anda half per cent, must be easily reduced to five, and even lower, as even that rate would give it reference over any European in- vesument. Then and self-interest combined would induce the people to monopolize the whole of the public securities, and thus, in case of need, leave open to us the markets of the world. ‘As @ further evidence of the enlarged views of our Secretary of the Treasury the following instance should be related:—Some time since, the appointment of a ‘Treasury agent being needed for the State of South Caro. lina, the Secret sent the appointment to Mr. C. B. Priestley, a well known financier of superior tact and ability, Who had occupied a similar position nader the Confederate government. The recipient of this unex- pected favor promptly and honestly informed the Treas. urer that, owing to the part he had taken in the late war, he could not conscientiously take the oath required of him before being inducted into office. But as no other man could be found uniting, to the same extent, integrity and capacity, Mr. McCniloch instructed him to proceed = ~ Ate farther er Se Por services were need yt ernment, iy was him undoubted. oo: = In tine, everything tends to represent Mr. McCulloch as the simple and truthful impersonation of Presideut Johnson's policy. THE PARDONING PROCESS One most interesting anecdote, witnessed by our in- formant, will shew in what light the President views the men coward! jough to forswear their past. At one of the last receptions held by the President for the purposes of inquiring into every case of pardon, two men presented themselves, who, under the twentythou- sand dollar clause, were applying for relief. One was young man, not over twenty-five years, bearing on hi shattered frame tho evidences of many a hard f field, The other, older, but still hale and pow 5 Both from the same State, To the first, the ident asked how, so young, he came to join the rebellion. He rephed, he had done it from honest an@ sincere principles, and could not, under any circumstances, say that he repented or regretted it. The President then inquired how long he had served, where and how often he had been Asa. my The youth lied, modestly but frankly, pointing to his scars. “Well, well,” replied the it, 1 he Ph ai have had enough of this,” and instantly ordered the pardon to be granted. Then, turn- ing to the other, he listened es toa long story of lent, but concealed, Union feelings, and repeated asau- rances of ae ene and future devotion. When the party had le out lis case the President sternly in- quired of him in what regiment of the Union army he had fought, and on receiving for an answer that he had never joined any, he coldly replied:—“I will take your case under advisement.” So favorable are, in sort, all the reports which reach us of the President's ingelligent poltey and noble heart, that the gloom which radicalisin is attempting to throw “over the prospects of reconstruction is rapidly dicpelied or the genial sun of his liberality New York Politic NVEKSATION WITH MR.

Instead of the orchestras which the public arc accustomed to hear at the theatre, and for the enjoyment of which, of course, ‘they pay their meney as well as for the dramatic per- formance, a simple piano acoompanimont was provided at all the theatres except two, at which neither the pan- tomime nor the opera could be prodaced without an orchestra, and the managers were therefore compelled to accede to the demands of the musicians for higher wages. This interesting incident in our theatrical history is entirely new, and produced « dismal offect upon both audiences and actors, It serves, however, to show that combinations are not all-powerful for their own ends, for here is a case ‘n which the Mutual Musical Protootive Union has completely baffled the Managers’ Association, inaugurated mainly for the purpose of keeping down and reducing the salaries of the poor artists and musicians, Between the two the public has to suffer, and how long they will stand the dictation of these combinations re- mains to be seen. Concerning tho present conflict let us state a fow faote. There are in this city and Brooklyn at the present time ten properly so-called theatres, one show shop, besides a non-perambulatixfg circus or equestrian exbi- bition, and sundry minstrel companiea—the entire party of managers for these establishments employing nightly not far from two hundred musicians. This estimate of theatrical establishments and of the number of perform- ers is exclusive of all opera representations and all con. certs, Thé managers of the theatres aud similar estab- Jishments unite, as is well known, im the maintenance of a fraternity, or guild, for mutual cacoutagement, sup- Port and protection, called the ‘Theatrical Managers’ Association." ‘There algo are, in the two cities named, outside the orchestras, a number of musicians of various grades of culture and skill sufficient to make an aggrogate various- ly estimated at from one thousand to twelve hundred people, who get their living from the profession or prac- tice of music; and the musicians, on their part, have also an organization formed for purposes relatively simi- lar to those of the association before alluded to, and their society is stamped officially, so to say, by an act of the State Logislaturc, whereby sundry leading professors of the divine art are duly incorporated as the ‘Musical Mutual Protective Union’'—an institution sustained by its members up to the present time. with great single- ness of purpose, and with mutually protective results. The record of legislative action on the part of the msi- cians may be very briefly stated. It is this:— in the summer of 1863 the first protective organization was formed by them, and at that time a demand was made that those who performed in the theatrical orches- tras should receive an advance from $9 per week (the then price) to $12, which requirement was acceded to by the managers. The next step was taken in the spring of 1864, yhen the demand was made for another advance of $2 per week, and in this, as in the first instance, they were successful. Meanwhile the “Union” had been brought into existence, and from the time of the forma- tion of that organization until now they who compose it have evidently felt that they had the reins in their own hands. We understand, however, that during the last summer an attempt on the part of some of the members to procure a “‘strike"’ for $20 per week failed to receive the sopeonetion of a majority, and therefore prices re- mained where they were until Jast week. The musicians have a full schedule of prices for their services for every conceivable occasion on which music could be required, and it is intended to advance the piicos for all playing. It is proper to be observed that alinost the entire pe et ig enrolled upon the books of the Pro- tective Union, and, indeed, among the names of ile cor- porators a such ones as Carl Bergmann, Carl Anschutz, John P, Cooke and C. 8. Grafulia, with others of perhaps not less celebrity. The first president of the organization was Mr. H. D, Beissenherz, now leader of the Park theatre ae gry mage ey and the first and only was and is Mr. David Schaad, a clarionet performer at one of the Bower The president now acting is Mr. D. L. Downing, of the Seventh regi- ment widely known composer and arranger of military music, As before intimated, almost sverybody who pretends to be a musician is in full fellowship witl the society, and is bound by its action, for better or worse, Tast week, at a meeting of the Unien held in the Ger- mania Assombly Rooms, the subject of theatre playing being under , It was agreed to unite in a de- snand upos ail the mansgere for aa of $6 per week. Some of the more moderate of the on were of opinion that inasmuch as the musicians had bound themselves to play during the season at given rates they should be very slow to violate such agree- iments without grave cause; but the action was such as we have stated, and accordingly each manager has been served with a notice to that effect. Such, then, is the present aspect of this matter of the managers and the musicians. The price demanded by the musical artists is not au exorbitant one; for their present pay is inadequate tq the comf mainte- hance of any one of them. A number vf musicmns, all membors of the Musical Protective Union, assembled yestorday at Germauia Hall, in avenue A, for the pui of calling upon the Executive Committee of the Union to bold a special meeting, wherent the motion adopting an advanced scale of prices might be reconsidered. Aver considerable dis- cussion those present signed a petition, which will be forwarded to the Executive Committee, whogs duty it is Wo desig uate the time and place of the meeting. ITS CRLEGRATION IN THE CHURCHES YRSTERDAY— IT3 HIWTORY, BTC. Yosterday, being All Saints’ Day, or All Hallow's Day, was a grand day in all the churches. It is general coun memoraiion in honor of all those saints anc sourtyrs to whom individually no particular day bas been assigned. In the Catholic cathedral and all tie churches grand mass was celebrated iu the morning, and in the Proves- twnt churches thero was divine service in lionor of the day. The origin of tho festival w the occasion of the dedication of a famous church in Rome. The Pantheon, or Rotunda, was a temple bailt by Marcus Agrippa, the favorite counsellor of Augustus, ant dedi cated to Jupiter, the Avéuger, in compliment 10 Augus- tus upon his victory at Actium over Antony and C patra. It was called Pantheon, either because tho statues of Mars and several other gods were placed in it, yor, a8 others think, because its igure represented the wens-—called by thepagans the residence of all the gods, which is the interpretation of the Greek name Pan- theon. Theodosius the Younger, who came to the throne in 405, detwolisted all the temples of idols in the Kast; but Honorius, his uncle, thoagh he caused them to be shut up in the West, suffered them to stand as monuments of the aurient magniiicence of the empire, When idolairy bad been so long banished that there was no danger of any person reviving its superstitions, these edilices were in some places purified and converted into churches for the worship of the true God, who thus triumy over the prete! doitios in their own temples. When our Saxon ancestors recoived the faith, St. Gregory, writiag to King Ethelbert, exhorted him to destroy the tem of the idols; but afterwards, in a letter to St. Melle he allowed them to be changed into churches. About three and a half years after the decoase of this great was placed in St. Peter's chair, who Maria and Martyra, or tho tunda The feast of this dedication was kept on the 13th of May.

Doubting the veracity of this statement, our reporter was dospatchod to the headquarters of the Brotherhood, whon Mr. O'Mahony emphatically denied ever giving such information. We give the words of Mr. O'Mahony as spoken by him:— Before his attention was called to the paragraph by our reporter ho said “that he had seen tho remarks, which ‘were not very complimentary to his appearance, but didn't think them worthy of notice, as from the face of “the statement it was a lie. He certainly would nover state toany stranger coming into the office anythii connected with the affairs of the Fenian Brotherhood, and never entered into any argument with any one re- 8, ecting it.’ Ho said, “My only answer to ig, that the justice or injustice, the sense or the of the action taken by the Brotherhood, must be proved rf cree and verbal argument is idle until broushe an issue. THUR PRESIDENT’S APPEARANCE. ‘The first assertion made by this correspondent is, “The head of the order is a wild looking young man named O’Mahoty."’ Tho name he has gotten correctly, but as for his being a wild looking young man is far trom’vorrect. He appears to be near upon forty years of age, and has a smart, military bearing, giving him a rather command- ing eee. His manner is very cordial, aad you feel that a person of no ordinary ability. His roms 1t his dress und appearance, which he calls “secdy,” and that “he had that familiar, lounging air that distingnishes those hangers on of small poll- ticians and petty courts here, who ars known by the fa- miliar name of bummers,” can be relied upon to about the’same extent as the other assertions. His dress is plain, yet neat, and in the prevailing fashion. The lounging air could not be discerned, aa he appeared to be ‘up to the eyes’’ in papers and business. HIS POLITICS. In regard to Mr. O’Mahong’s connection with politics he said:;—‘I judiciously abstain from mixing myself up with all politics, and have even displeased my personal friends on that account.’ “It is not,” he said, “because I do not feel strongly on American affaire, but I have the whole affairs of the Brotherhood on me, which gin 6? my whole tine, There are Americans who look wit favor upon the Fenian movement. Besides, t think the Awerican people can take good cere of America without my interference.’” NUMBRE OP THE BROTHERHOOD. Tn regard to the number of the organization, which the correspondent places at over two hundred thousand, he satd:—Tho number of the organization was never men- tioned to any one, and “the number stated is likely to be more than under that figure.” CAUSE OF DISCONTENT. ‘The canse of discontent in Ireland was never men- tioned to any one; but the statement that the laws of entail and of primogeniture, which preveated the poorer classes from ing owners of the soil, is no doubt one great cause, MONRY AND MUSKETS. In answer to the statement ascertained from neighbors, “that wagon loads of muskets are driven up to the door every day, sent up stairs to be inspected and then driven away again; expressmen, with remittances of money, are also constantly in attendance on him,” Mr. O’Mabony said that “many presents of muskets are received from various parts, and are immediately shipped off. A dray load of muskets would not be brought here for inspec- tion, but would be sent off right away.” Of course, re- mittances are being received every day, many such com- jag to hand in one day . THE FENIAN HEADQUARTERS are situated in No. 22 Duane street. There are two oflices, very comfortably fitted up. The first one on entering is used as a sort of lobby, in one corner of which is piled a quantity of muskets, and hanging around are accoutrements and other things necessary for gol- diers in the field. Tifwse only stay until s suffictont number is collected, when they are shipped off to “parts unknown.'’ Inthe further office is found the President apd Secretary and two others, who ull appear to be busy, if we may judge from the piles of letters and papers, &., before them. Business seems to be the order of the day, every one working in earnest. Mr. ‘Mahony said:—‘‘ The headquarters are too small, and are over- crowded for the work which has to be transacted; wo have grown too big for them ; they were very well a few years ago, and now we are about changing our hi jaar. tors to a building more suitable to the iucreased business and magnitude of the Brotherhood; butto where could not be ascertained. 4 ‘The correspondent aay, when about closing his letier, ‘This was all Lcould get out of him.’ No wonder at that ifeven he ever heard a word, for Mr. O'Mahony is very ‘close’ on the movements of the society, and we were unable to gain any information from him exgept of a trivial and uninteresting nature. In conclusion, Mr. O'Mahony satd that “he only laughed at such oe He thought it would be wro: for a man in his todo so. He knew that the cause for which lre was working was a holy one, and one that required ail his attention.” Irish Bonds and the Contederate Loan. (From the Montreal (Canada) Herald, Oct. 331.)
