Ryer, tate of the Twentieth New York battery, furnishes us a thrilling account of his experience in connection with the wreck and sinking of the steam- ship Republic, on tho Georgia coast, on the 25th of October. Captain Ryer, in company with a number of others, made hix escape in the boat in charge of the second mate, und for four nights and three days, without anything to cat or drink, and suffering intense agony of body and mind, they were tossed about at the mercy of the winds and waves, -Finally, when they had all abandoned every hope of suagor, and resignedfthemselves to the contemplation of an tarly grave at the bottow of the sca, they were sighted by the schooner Harper, which took them all on board. Captain Ryer expresses doubts of the seaworthinees of the Republic at the time she left this city, and charges Captain Young, her com mander, with inhumanity and disregard for the lives of his passengors. The steamer Jacob Bell, in tow of the gunboat Banshee, from Washington for this port, was abandoned in a sink ing condition in Chesupenke bay on Sunday last, during a severs gale.

A coroner's inquest was held yesterday in regard (0 the death of Daniel McDonald, which resulted, as charged, from a stab inthe neck inflicted by Jobu Goodman, dur: ing # quarrel between the two on Monday night in a drinking house on the corner of Second avenue and Thirty-ninth streot, ‘The jury's verdict was to the effect that in (ueir opinion the fatal wound was inflicted by Goodman.

The results of the State elections yeaterdey, especially in New York and Now Jersey, are very interesting and significant. In New York the democrats have suffered a heavy defeat, although their standard bearer was that able, tried and trusty Union soldier, General Slo- cum, and their platform the sound and popular restoration policy of President Johnson. But the republicans held the vantage ground of occupation, the prestige of the war and of the September and October elections in other States, the party claim of possession in regard to the President, in addition to a soldiers’ ticket and a Johnson platform. Moreover, as the comparative losses of the two parties will show, the virus of copperheadism operated more to the pi of the democrats than did the mutinous spirit of the abolition radicals against the discipline and unity of the republi- can party. And again, while the demands upon the republicans in support of the administra- tion were generally consistent with the ante- cedents, ideas and purposes of the party, the transformation of the democracy at Albany was too much and too violent for a harmonious right about face of the rank and file, . The dis- tance between the Chicago and the Albany platforms was too great to be crossed at a single bound. These are our conclusions from the narrow view of the results in New York as a mere party affair. We shall touch upon a broader solution presently. It comes upon us irresist- ibly as we approach the result in New Jersey. Here the republicans had a democratic major- ity to overcome of seven thousand—equal to fifty thousand in Now York—and they mastered it. How? By tho folly of the democratic managers in adhering to the dead issues of the past, and in ignoring or fighting the living and | controlling issues of the present. For example, there is the constitutional amendment for the abolition and prohibition of slavery throughout the United States. It wants a ratification from three more States to make it a part and parcel of the supreme law of the land, and so to secure the peace of the country against any posible attempt to revive the discord-brocding institution in any State hereafter. ‘Tbe demo- erntic Legislature of New Jersey last winter refused to ratify this amendment. It was sub- sequently proclaimed asa leading feature of President Johnson’s restoration policy. But while the New Jersey democracy professed on approval of his policy they set up a candidate for Governor who flatly denounced said amend- ment “a naked usurpition by the consolidated despotism at Washington.” The people of New Jersey have decreed otherwise, for, in adhering to President Johnson in good faith, they have chosen a Governor and Legislature that will ratify the amendment. Here, in this emphatic verdict of New Jersey, we discover something of the popular strength of President Johnson’s policy. The people recognize the important fact not only that a great rebellion has been put down, but that much towards a great revolution has been ac- complished ; and that Andrew Johnson has the work still to be done properly in hand, and that it must be finished. Kilpatrick and his legion of soldiers, warm and dusty from the battle fields of the South, have said so, and the voice of the people is the voice of the army. It is Andrew Johnson’s restoration policy, therefore, which, against their copperhead abominations «nd affilintions, has routed the democracy from Maine to California, and broken up even their last stronghold of New Jersey. The disgusted copperheads and the disaffected radicals have largely staid at home. The administration and its honest supporters among the people, including the intelligent soldiers of the Union, bave carried all these late clections. The republican party are neturally jubilant | over the results; but they must not forget the agencies through which they have been se- cured. They must not forget that they | owe their successes to their professions of a cordial support of President Johnson, and they must in’ mind = that, as events have proved, they have acted wisely in rejecting the disorganizing counsels of such radical fanatical leaders as Charles Sum and Thaddeus Stevens. President Johnson, from his sagacious and satistuctory reconsiruc- | tion programme, has become the master of the | sittation, So recognized by the republican party | let them adhere to him in good faith, and they may prosper. The chances for a resuscitation of the unfortunate democracy appear to be bear gloomy. But we are still in the transition epoch from the old to a new order ot ‘hings, and its constantly changing phases may greatly change the relations of elements and organize- tion of our political parties, even within the next three years, Experience, too, has shown us repeatedly that when a party becomes so powerful as to bear down all opposition, it be- comes 80 unwieldy as to fall to pieces from its own weight. The old democratic party, poisoned by the rebellion, is dead and done for. Like the old | federal party, it cannot be revived with its re- cord against a people’s war. But its broken fragments, like the Southern States, may be reconstructed upon @ better foundation; and from the chapter of accidents and vicissitudes | in our public affairs a new dominant party at Washington may form its oucleus, and within the interval to the next Presi- dency. The issues of 1868 will depend upon the shaping of the momentous and delicate questions now to be dealt with. They may still result in the eupersedure of the party in power, from its disintegrations and a resistless hostile coalition, for we are stillin the midst of | a revolution, | Tue Nexr Mentcreas Exection.—The munici- pal election occurs next month. It will bea more important event to the citizens of New York than the State election on Tuesday. It is | only necessary to look atthe acts of the munici- pal authorities for the past year to satisfy every taxpayer and every honest citizen that a radi- cal change in every department of the city government is demanded. There is no hope for reform under the present system. Its entire body, like the legislation of the State, is cor. rupt. The verdict of the people in the late State election was not in favor of Morgan, Weed, Seward or any other set of men or fac- tion. It was their decision against the cor- ruption and fonIness of that legislative action which has for many years disgraced the Capitol Fe ate aes aa ga franchises privileges. The people. of they of Now Terk might follow the ex- ample ‘of the people of the State and make a clean sweep of all corruptionists. They should earnestly turn their attention to the forthcoming municipal election, and begin at once the pre- parations necessary to emancipate themselves from corrupt politicians and miserable cliques. Now is the time to begin the work. The British Ministry—Progress of Re- publican Imstituttons. Lord Palmerston has been buried in West- minster Abbey with great pomp and ceremony, and it seems to be generally conceded that Earl Russell will temporarily succeed him as Premier. All the leading English journals agree, however, in the opinion which we ex- pressed some time ago that Earl Russell’s rule will be merely for the moment, and that he will be unable to form a permanent ministry. The fact is thatin losing Palmerston the British government has lost its real head. He con- trolled all the political parties and united them in support of the Queen and her government, even when they seemed to differ most radically upon certain partisan or reform measures. In this respect he was like Lincoln during the few. months that intervened between the reinaugura- tion and the assassination of our late President. But when Palmerston died there was no Andrew Johnson to succeed him, and the British minis- try is therefore at sea, with the helmsman gone, and no one to keep the ship of State upon its course. How long Earl Russell will remain in office it is useless to speculate; but it is certain that, although the English press unanimously objects to his remaining there long, nobody has yet been able to name any statesman who can fill Palmerston’s place. Clarendon, Gran- ville and Gladstone have been mentioned; but all of them have most bitter opponents, dis- posed to show.them no mercy and to give them no lease of power. [t would not surprise us if they should all be tried and found wanting. We anticipate, in short, a succession of minis- tries, each weaker than its predecessor, anda final transformation of the British monarchy into a republic, with some person of the John Bright school at the head of affairs. Tho result of the recent civil war in this country has greatly disturbed the policy of England, France and the other European Pow- ers, They desired and expected that the South- ern confederacy could be established, and this country thus divided and desiroyed. They re- peatedly predicted the dissolution of the Unioa, and used every means that they dared to em- ploy in order to verify their predictions. In doing so it was their simple, plain and self- evident object to check the progress of repub- licanism and strengthen monarchical institu- tions. It happens, however, that all their selfish plans and schemes have been frusivated, and that republicanism has come oui of its cru- cial contest vietorioury, We have not only pre- served the Union, but we have demonstrated beyond the possibility of a doubt the capacity ofa free people to govern and to protect them- selves, There is no monarchy on the face of the earth that could have survived the shock of a rebellion so gigantic as that which attempted to destroy this nation, and none which could so astonish the world by such an overwhelming display of power on both land aud sea, Eng- land will probably have more trouble in sup- pressing the comparatively insignificant Fenian conspiracy—if, indeed, she succeeds in sup- pressing it at all—than we had in putting down the greatest insurrection that ever dis turbed the world. Now, in a civil war, as in a political election, one party or the other must lose, and those who back the de- feated party must lose also. England was one of those Powers which staked everything upon the success of the Southern confederacy, and it is impossible for her to escape the consequences of her defeat. Her honor is already gone; some of ber money has been sunk in the rebei cffton loan, and | more of it must go to compensate us for the injuries inflicted upon our commerce by En: lish privateers; but, in addition to all th her system of government must now be entirely changed. Having deliberately accepted our civil war ag a conflict between »ristocracy and republicanism, she must also accept the result of the contest and conform bersell to the sys tem that is triumphant. This reaction in favor of republican instiintions will affect all Europe | tion with the latter establishment cannot but be ad sooner or later; bul tm England the death of Lord Palmerston has precipitated the istue by the Queen ix only a lay figure nsed to main- tain a costly and absurd sham ceremonial. We have thus briefly but comprehensively stated the philosophy of the present crisis in England, and we are certain that it will ulti- mately reeult in the abolition of the British monarchy and the formation of a British re- public. je Of President The Forthcoming Me Johnson. No document ever penned by an American statesman since the Declaration of Lndeopend- ence, the constitution of the United States and the firat inaugural of the lamented Lincoln will be read upon both sides of the Atlantic with such intense interest as (he forthcoming mes- sage of President Johnson. Providentially called to the chief executive chair at an exira- ordinary crisis, when the country was first emerging trom the blood and smoke of # terri- ble civil war, and when the world was horror | leaving the government without a bead, since i \ ' | } pric stricken by the news of Lincoln's agsassination, | President Johneon assumed his onerous duties ata moment's aotice, and bes since been dis- charging them with an energy, tact and dis- cretion that cannot be too highly extolled. So busy that he could not spare time to write a line that was not of the most pressing import- ance, be has left us to judge of bis policy by his acté rather than by his words. It is true that he has often delivered short offhand speeches to various visitors and delegations; but such speeches are always more or less unpremedi- tated, and cannot be accepted as official and authoritative expositions of the Presidential policy. Such as they are, however, they have been sufficient to unite the whole country In his support, irrespective of party platforms and party discipline, and to excite « general’ curi- osity to learn more of.the views and designs of 8 statesman who seems to be as extraordinary in his character as was the occasion that made him our President. During the political canvass that has just concluded President Johnson, finding both parties harmonious in sustaining him, has been at Albany. It was their protest against the lobby tricksters and cheats who have rendered State legislation almost a sham and a delusion, | and reduocd the deliberations of bath houses to quietly preparing the message which he is to transmit to Congress in December, and he is still diligentiy emaaged in this important any danger of revolutionary proceedings, how- ever, the message may be transmitted to the public journals, which are the real representa- tives of the people, and may be accompanied, as we suggested a few days ago, by a procia- mation calling for a grand special election. In any event we believe that its declarations and explanations in regard to the President’s policy will be so satisfactory to the American people that there will be no ground left for such constitutional or unconstitytional grumblers as Wendell Phillips, who appear to think it their special mission to find fault with everybody and everything, not excluding themselves. Wherever the foreign policy of the governmgnt is intimately connected with the subject Sf restoration it will be amply treated; but it is not likely that much space will be devoted to our forcign relations in de- tail. In his formal speech upon the reception of the Minister from Brazil the President has already expressed his views in connection with the affairs of this continent, referring quite dis- tinctly to the Mexican imbroglio; and Europe at once recognized the application of his re- marks. he claims of this government apon Great Britain for the damages inflicted by English privateers have already been presented by Minister Adams and are being diplomati- cally discussed. The President’s telegrams to the North Carolina and Georgia conventions have settled the case of the rebel bondholders. Brief references to these and kindred matters will, therefore, suffice for the forthcoming mes- sage. President Johnson believes that we shoukl attend to our domestic affairs before atiending to our foreiga affairs; that we should make no demands until we are perfectly ready to enforce them; and we consequently presume that the momentous message which he is now preparing will be mainly devoted to the policy of restoration, and that our foreign relations will be in © measure reserved for another Presidential communication.

A more perfect ovation néver greeted any company of artists than that which Grau’s troupe received this evea- ing. The magnificent house was overflowing with fashion and beauty. The Queen City of the Union is the Parla of the West, as New York is of the continent. Fashion takes its light from hore, and illuminates the surrounding vicinity. Therefore the new Opera House was a parterre of grace and beauty, blossoming with multi-colored hues, like « prairie in summer, The opera was Trovitere, The cast was Noel Guidi, Teonora; Cash Pollini, Azucena; Musiani (well known to you), Manrico; Orlandini, Comte de Luna; Coletti, Fer- rando, and Muzio as conductor. Noel Guidi looked like a queen, young, fresh, with a clear voice, gracoful im form, and showed « splendid method of singing, Her @ilfit in America this cvening was a great triumph. The Chicago public are a little cold and slow with their re- ception, but, she had to repeat the aria in the Grst act, and was repeatedly called out. The contralto (Cash Pot- lini) possesses a voice something unusual, the lower and higher registers being remarkable, The duo was vorferously received and encored. Mu- siani created 4 sensation. His “voice being quite new to this public, the clearness of his tenor and his ex- cellent method obtained instant recognition. Tu the third act his wt de poitrine startled and delighted the audience, Orlandini made avery fine Cuunt de Luna, and looked splendid. ‘The new chorus of fresh voices vyas a tine addition. T'rovatore was never better sung im this country, nor probably beiter appreciated. ‘Yo-morrow Faust will be giveu with a cast never equalled before in America, including Bosohetti as Mar- guerite, Algini as Siebel, Anastasi as Faust, Brandini aa Mephistopheles, Fellini as Valentiv. Every seat is aotd. ‘The receipts to-night wore three thousand one hun- dred dollars, although the price is fixea at the Now York standard, Weare assured from the auspicious begin- ping that Grau’s Western tour will prove the most suc- cessful yet undertaken. Indeed, with such @ com- > pany and so perfect » repertoire, the surprise would be great if it shonld uot, Grau himself is highly popular here, from bis frank, gentlemanty manner and prompt business hablta. The Lousenold is harmonious; there is little fear of family jars or discords between manager and artists, or mu- xicians, The contracts will be kept to thé letter, aad the programme will be carried out to the aweet end.
