The prosecution rested its cage late in the after- noon, after which the junior counsel for the prisoner opened the case for the defence in an elaborate apeech. ‘The cage will be continued to-day, when the trial will no doubt be finished. Another collision occurred yesterday morning in the Bowery between a long car and one of the city cars, at the junction of Third and Fourth avenues, the econe of the similar affair of a fatal character last month. A car of the Harlem road had got stuck at this point, and while it was stopped, awaiting assistance, a third avenue car, coming down, was driven into it, resulting in a consider- able fracture of the latter and injuries, though fortunate- ly not of » dangerous character, to its conductor and two or three of its passengers, ‘The following were among yesterday's commitments both attractive to our young men and gn honor te all who may belong to it.

Quite a number of naval officers and seamen were sufferers during the war, and are now fitting objects of con- sideration for the nation.. A naval asylum for all such would prove the gratitude of the country for hardships undergone by our noble Jack Tars during the rebellion. While upon this subject we are reminded of the donation of the sum of a million of dollars for the found- ing of a hospital for disabled officers and mon, in the army and navy, made a few years sinos by one of our most public spirited but now deceased citizens. What has become of this large fund?

The radical leaders claim that they are actuated by a desire to see full ice done to the emancipated slaves; but it is easy to show that this claim isa mere flimsy pretext to con- ceal the ambitious designs of these bold, bad men, If justice is not done to the emancipated slaves the radical leaders will be to blame for it, The constitutional amendment which made the slaves freemen ‘also gave Congress the right to pass such laws as would secure to thenegroes the undisturbed enjoyment of their free- dom, The radical leaders have repeatedly proven that they can control the majority in Congress as they please, If, then, the proper laws are not passed whose fault isit? The ne- g'oes are now completely in the hands of Con- gress, and Congress is in the hands of the radi- cals. The amendment which transformed the slaves into freemen placed them upon an equality with the white emigrants who land upon our shorea, These emigrants come from countries where they are denied the privilege of voting, and Congress gives them that priv- ilege upon certain conditions. The negroes algo come from a condition in which all priv- ileges were denied to them, and Congress may give them the right of suffrage, which carries all other rights with it, upon whatever condi- tions are deemed prudent and satisfactory. That Congress has not done this, and shows no inclination to do it at once, is proof of either one of two theories;—First, that the radical leaders are using the negro question as a mere pretext, upon the principle so familiar to the old democratic doughfaces; or, second, that the majority in Congress is opposed to any further concessions to the blacks, and that the radicals, aware of this fact, are afraid to force the issue and expose their own weakness by coming toa direct vote upon negro suffrage bill. We offer them: either horn of this dilemma upon which to impale themselves. If they accept the former they. are convicted, not only of conspiracy against. the President, but of hypocrisy toward.the freedmen, which will vender thom forever infam If they choose the other theory, then they acknowledge them- ‘| selves to be a desperate and fenstical minority | ws yo @Ppinators dm) Congress. | "| bent upon coercing Congress and the-country Since the nasembling of Congress the..oppo+j into.a policy of which the conscience and the Mary Delany, a woman aged about forty, on charge of pasmng on Eighth avenue shopkeepers counterfeit ten dollar bilis on the New England Pacific Bank, of North Providence, R, L;.Charies H.

This is not only a sad spectacle, but it is a disgraceful one. The peo- ple throughout the country have no ides of it, and it is only known to the few in Wusbing- ton who can penetrate the secret arcana of politics. But it is nevertheless a fact. We aasert what is well known to the President, the Cabinet and many members of Congress. Nor are the plots and blows of these conspirators aimed at the President alone, though he is the chief object. Their hostility is directed against General Grant also, This great man and glo- rious hero, to whom the country owes an etér- nal debt of gratitude, is also the object of their malignant secret attacks, His great offence isin being magnanimous, honest and conser- vative, and in supporting the President’s wise restoration policy. Many of the dark intrigues of these men can- not be penetrated, of course, and some can- not be exposed now; but enough is known to justify us in speaking thus plainly, and to call upon Mr. Johnson to strike at once at the conspiracy by dismissing those in his Cabi- net engaged in it. There is little reason to doubt tat the Secretary of War, Stanton, is the head and front of the secret Jacobin club at Washington. On several occasions he has shown insidious hostility to the President and to General Grant. The case of Baker, the chief of detectives, is fresh in the memory of every one. More recently his conduct in preparing an order countermanding that of General Grant for mastering out troops in Vir- ginia evinces the same arrogant opposition to the measures of the President'and the acts of the General-in-Chief. The order of Stanton referred to, it will be remembered, was men- tioned in the press throughout the country im- mediately after the radical resolution against the withdrawal of troops was passed in the House of Representatives. Stanton took advan- tage of this opportunity to prepare the order in accordance with the resolution, and no doubt gave the information about it to the press, It is said that when the matter was brought to the attention of the President by General Grant, who knew nothing of it officially and only through the newspapers, the presumptuous Secretary was forced to back down; but he could not deny having prepared such an order. The whole transaction shows that Stanton was acting in concert with the radicals in Congress, and against the President and General Grant. It is notorious, too, in Washington, that the Seo- rotary afiiliates amd consults with the Jacobin egal Such a state of civil war in the government and between ite different members is fraught with danger to the country, and ought not to exist’ ‘The members of the Cabinet. who can- ‘Rot agree with or are opposed to the policy ‘of the President ought to resign; and if they ‘ere sp impervious to a sense of propriety, or sre s0 determined to hold on to their places for = ues ulterior politieal purposes, the President should | ‘1%, the following resolutions wore adopted:— al aap re ‘These remarks: apply rou 6 Sn at tnerua! revenue ag Sok more particularly to the Seoretary of War; bus! ‘suring st ugnts¥e not outs more’ semonset ik Gan es there is a want of harmony with or fitness for | protective ayetom le : the new order of things in some of the others. ‘They have served their day. They were Secre- tories during a state of war, and they seem not to be aware that the war should be closed up. They are not in rapport with the harmonizing restoration policy of Mr. Johnson. At such an extraordinary crisis as the present in the his- ‘tory of the country the President needs all the support he could get from an able Cabinet. Yet he bas one in which some of its, members are conspiring against him and others are inca- pable of giving him any assistance. At the ‘very time he needs most this support the Secre- tary of State is absent, vs if that functionary were afraid to face the conflict forced upon his chief. The President has done well thus far, and has won the admjration of all the conser- vative men of the country. .We have confi- deace, too, in his firmness, honesty and great ability. We look upon him asa rock upon which the elements of faction are beating furiously but vainly. Still, respect to himself and the position he occupies, and regard for the best interests of the country which he has so much at heart, demand s speedy reconstruc- tion of his Cabinet. The time has arrived when a temporizing, put-off policy will not do.
