Important News from Europe—Speech of the King of Prussia, Foreshadowiug his Policy. Our special London and St. Petersburg tele- grams by the Atlantic cable contain highly in- teresting details of European. nows to Augusi 7, ‘The German situation ig still the engrossing subject, and we have in the speegh of the King of Prussia to the German Dict on the 6th instant an official ennouncement of the fuinre aims and policy of that Power. While the principal part of the address is devoled to an explana~ tion of the financial: budget and certain defi- ciencies in legislation concerning it, it also coniains seycral statements of grave impor- tance as foreshadowing his fature policy. Al- though entering the war with a treasury some- what depleted by the expenses of the war with Denmark, the King announces that the cam- paign with Austria has been carried on without imposing any tax on the peaple othor than the supply of the army with provisions and pro- vender, for which he proposes to pay. He states as a part of his policy that the German States are to be reconvened, and that as.one of the conditions precedent to the establishment of the confederation is the formation of a federal army unfler Prossian control, but supported and sustained by Gorman money, The full meaning of this language escapes the King in » second specch which he made to the municipal authorities of Berlin, and in which he used the expression that the war just: concluded was fought forthe restoration of Germany. Ii is the German empire which is to be restored, differing only, as M. Thiers has put it, from the great German empire of Charles V. in that the capital will be at Berlin instegd of Vienna, and with Italy for an ally instead of Spain. Since the declaration of the armistice Russia has been endeavoring to bring about a Con- gress of the Powers which signed the treaties of 1815 20 odious to Napoleon If. Her propo- sitions to this effect have met with a positive refusal from Prussia, and all efforts of the Czar to intercede or act in behalf of the southern States of Germany have also been fruitless. The peace complications which are about ensuing in Europe promise to be not less inter- esting aud exciting than those of the mili(ary campaign just past. lap inca Srwator Wirson on tar Stemr.—Senator Wil- son.has commenced a stumping cawpaign in Massachusells, iu a apeech im Boston before the National Association for the Fducotion of Teachers Amoug the Freedmen. The text and the well known radical meiions of the Senator will at once srggest ihe drift of bis arguments. Hoe rejoices over the downfall of slavery; but, he says, “We have not subdued the heart of the slave masters.” He says that Andrew Jobnson “is to-day the inapiration of | wrong and outrage upon loyal white mem and | loyal binck men of the South; that “Andrew | Jobnson has put the rebel States back into the hands of rebels, and he bas put the black men | of the South, and the loyal white men of the | rebels; that | Sonth, under the hoofs of ihose the radical party had triumphed, and wonld triumph for years to come; that it would sue- ceed in ihe elections for the next Congress, and “when the hour comes we shall elect a Prosi- Then, after glorifying Congress in the radical fashion, he says, “there is lo be a convention on the Mth of this menth at Philadelpbia, ® conglomeration of pardoned and unpardoned rebels, copper- heads and the flunkies of the whig part, he is “glad this convention is to assemble:” | that it will not help Andrew Jobneon, for that | “ninety-nine out of every hundred who voted for bim are against him to-day, and will be against bim in the September, October and November election®” These quotations will give the reader a pretty clear conception of this opening stump speech for the fll elec- tions of 1866 from Senator Wilson, The treachery of Andrew Johnson, the triampls of Congres#, the glory of the republican party, and the rights and the wrongs of the negro, are the burden of bis song. He evades ogdoes not comprehend the great questions which are atir- ring up the depths of pnblic opinion through- ont the country.

Ft ‘The Philadelphia Convention—Let the Deors be Thrown Open. There appears to be an unnecessary ner- vousness about the admission of delegates to the Philadelphia Convention. Who shall be admitted and who shall not be admitted is a question which distresses a great many people. Now that question is very easily settled by admit- ting every one who presents himself with cre- dentials trom any body or Convention that may have chosen him. It is not a nominating Con- vention. It is mot intended to represent or advance the ends of any party. It is simply ‘a great mass meeting of the people to discuss one or two very vital questions, and lay before the country a general principle for its reorganiza- tion, which is to last for years to come, but which must find its starting point in the assem- bled council of the people upon this occasion. This principle will most probably be developed in an address to the whole people of the United States, and will embrace most likely the admission of the Southern States and a review of the record of the radical Congress, and no more, It will be, in fact, a compact effort to accomplish what a corrupt Congress has failed to do, and give us a chance to start de nouveaw in practical reconstruction, in buildi up our goveramenis! cysich on 4 ew basis, which basis is the suppression of the rebellion and the restoration of peace, In these important questions every one is materially interested, and therefore no ene shonld be excluded from the deliberations of the Convention, There aro some who object to the admission of Thurlow Weed, They mls- trust his cunning, and are afraid that he will be troublesome and may “manage” the Conven- tion. . Such fears are heed!css, As there are to be no nominations for office, no question of the supremacy of party to be decided, there will De nothing te “minage;” and as there are no kitchen spoils to bo divided, Thurlow Weed | will give them no trouble, Others object to Vallandigham; but he can be easily disposed of by shuiting up his mouth, All the mischief he can do is by talking blatant nonsense, and he can be rendered harmless by depriving him of the opportunity to spout, Fernando Wood is also objected to; but as there ave no bargains to be made, and no money in the operation, he will not bother the Convoniion, and will very soon subside, Ali these objections are there- fore frivolous and out of place. The presence of this class of potiticians will, be but us a fly | on the wheel.” The Philadelphia Convention is a great popular uprising of the people agrinat the disuaion policy of the radical faction, like -the uprising of the people In 1861 against the ' Rapicat Boasts Coxenesive rae Pats Exec: | vioxs.—Leading radical orators and journals profess to be very sanguine of carrying the coming fall elections by something like the Union war majorities of 1864 Thus, the Chicago Tribune prophesies that they will carry Ohio by forty thousand, Indiana by thirty-five thousand, Mlinois by forty-five thousand, and ali the Western States east of the Rocky Moun- tains, by an aggregate majority of over two bandred thousand. But these radical propheis are counting their chickens before they are hatched. The elements of a great political revolution are at work. The war ia ended and slavery is abolished, and the war and the abo- disunion policy.of the rebels, At the latter period there was @ curious mixiure of polili- cians of all parties carried away by the exi- gency of ihe dangorous times which then came upon tis, The country waa in danger from the assaults of the rebels, and men of all shades of politics united for ita protection, Tie country is in danger again, from the Jacobin proclivi- ties of the radical faction, with their machinery of riots and bloodshed, and the war of races, and interminable taxation, and limitless cor- ruption, Freedmen’s Bureaus, aad military in- tervention; and men of all political opinions again rally in s great popular uprising at Philadelphia to stem the tide of destruction, Tois is what the Philadelphis Convention means, and no’ misrepresentation ‘on the part of the radical press, no fanatical ap. peals of radical leaders can mistead the | people as to ila Sbject. Inthe great popular war movement of 1861 Fernamdo Wood mace a speech in favor of the prosecation of the war. He went further, He raised funds to equip a Union regiment. Tt is trae thet whon all the money was expénded he backed out and took the other side; but that was only characteristi of the class of politicians to which he bolones. Vallandigham also spoke loudiy for war ia the | beginning, though he too proved @ backslider | Tieretore, as they were heard then, let them he ward now in favor of the reconstruction of | the coumtry. [Lt will do no harm eveo if they back oul afleewards, whieh is quite probable, if | they cannot sneceed in securing a controling | influence in the Convention; and we can con- | ceive nothing more unlikely to oceur. ‘The best plan to adopt, then, is to admit every one who presents himself upon the prin- ciple that form: the foundation of the Conven- The issue is broad and plain. There visundersiunding it, It is reduced to the question whether the country #hall be restored fo iis pristine condition, existing ante bltem;or whether the radical faction in Con. gress shall keep it divided and disiracted while they plunder the Treasury and exiend the period of their power to inflict upon as the most infamons legislation under which any country ever siaggered. The people—its sol- diers and generals, nearly all of whom were conservatives—put down the rebellion, and not the radicals, who were stealing while the re- public was burning. Itis the people in con- vention assemiied who have the right to create the blessitys of the peace which they have | won. Therefore let the voice of all the people he heard.

They may be @ tonrce of tronble to us; it ia questionable whether they can ever be one of gain. The indifference which prevails on the subject docs not, however, affect its probabilities, There i# nothing more certain in the way of political speculation then that one of these days the North American possessions of Great Britain will pass into the Union of States of which we form part. A few weeks ago the advocates of an inie- pendent confedcration of the provinces were exnlinat over the prospects of its success, The thing bad heen so manipulated that the true feeling of their populations was not allowed « chance of influencing the decision of the quee- tion.

We repeat that, however the confederation question may be decided by the votes of the provincial parliaments, the people of this coun- try are profoundly indifferent to the issue, They know that when they want the provinces they can have them without any very great effort or-expenditure. As matters stand it would look asif the Canadians were themselves antici- pating any desire that we. might have formed on the subject. If they put the present Ministry out of office it is certain that the Confederation ill will be shelved, and its failure will be fol- lowed by s general and irresistible demand for annexation. * Secretary Sranron Wira tHe Rapicats.— The distorted radical accounts of General Sheridan’s despatches in reference tothe New Orleans riots, which first appeared in certain radical despatches from Washington, there is reason to believe were furnished by the Secre- tary of War.
