Sumner, W ison and Batier on the Situa- tion. Senators Sumner and Wilson and General Butler, all of Massachusetts, and all loading radicals in Congress, have been giving petty freely their views and opinions on the present crisis, and on the principal characters, issues and difficulties of the political situation. Theso views and opinions are very interesting, and especially in reference to Preaident Johason, the impeachment question, General Grant, Chief Justice Chase and the Presidential suc- cession. Beginning with Senetor Sumner: he pro- nounces the removal of Secre‘ary S'antoa at this time as “a national calamity;” that the action of General Grant in consenting to take his place is difficult to explain, and that, con- sidered as a Presidential candidate, “ we are lef in barrowing uncertainty in regard to his opinions ;” that President Johnson “is per- verse, pig-headed and bru!al ;” that “ of course he is a usurper and a tyrant;” that “tho woa- der is Congress dil not act accordingly long ago,” and “put him at once into a s'raight jacket ;” that at list, however, be will be im- peached and removed, and “ that if any person calling himself a republican takes the side of the Presiden: it will bs Mr. Fessondon,” styled by Wendell Phillips “a dysp»ptic Scotch ter- rier, ”? but who, according to Sumner, is » pug- nacious custom ot like Johnson, “though of o much finer fibre,” and who “ has always had a soft side for Johnson.” ‘ Such, In 9 nutshell, are the views and opin- ions of Senator Sumner on the subjests pro- sented. His colleague, Wilson, though ran- ning in the same general ch-nnel, diverges hore and there from the track of Sumner. Ac- cording to Senator Wilson, the Congressional scheme of reconstruction, though embarrassed and delayed by Mr. Johnson, must go through to its consummation, Wilsoa believes, though a late believer, taat “ the President will be im- peached,” that he “deserves impeachm=nt,” and that such ha3 bocome the prevailing judg- ment of the republican party. In th» opinion of Wilson, Grant and Stanton are in tho hap- piest accord; and Grant, like Stanton, has gone into the War Depar ment “to do what - could and save what he could for the coun'ry.” As regards President Johnson, Mr. W.lson thinks that “he goes by fits and starts;” that, “in fact, he acts like a man on a ‘bust,’ who goes to sleep and wakes up and breaks things, and then goes to sleep again, and so on till he is sober.” “In my idea,” says the Senator, “be is a foolish man, governed by gusts of passion and temper; and a disappointed man, because he really believed he was going to succeed.” Mr. Wilson does not know whether Mr. Chase isa Presidential candidat> or not, but thinks “no man better fitted to be President of the United States.” Only the other day, however, General Grant was the champion of Wilsoa against the field. Next, in summing up the views of General Butler, he does not like the position of General Grant in the war office. It is “a very difficult and dsngerous rile” that he has to play, and time must be left to tell the consequences, Stantoa has the confidence of the country. Seward has evidently determined to be re- venged on the republican party “for its pre- ference of Mr. Lincoln.” “Impeachment is . to come. The same causes which hindered heretofore will now tend to bing it on,” because President Wade's ia the White House must now ie necessity be so short that bis promo- tion will excite no jealousies, from the fict that, even if #0 inclined, he can do no mischief against any candidate in his distribution of the spoils. It 1s on the national finances, howerer, that General Butler comes forth in the’ character of an calightened siatesman. When we say that bis views on the great money question in its leading details are those which have been ventilated through the Henan for many months past, we say all that is necessary in the General's defence, for on this ground no enemy can flank him and bottle bim np, Sach are the views, in brief, of three of the most conspicuous republican leaders of Mas- sachusetts, Whal do they signify! What is the leading idea, party necessity and party purposes, in which they all concur! [is the impeachthent of President Johnson. Differing on othor mon snd other questions, Sumner, Wilson and butler are io harmony in regard to President Johnsou. Nor do wo any louger hear an opposing voice from any corner of the republican camp against this general ery of impeachment. Mr. Jobnaon, doubtless, te aware of his danger, and is doing and will do all he can to hold bis position. ‘He cannot back out. He must maintain bis ground. What, then, is to follow no man can tell. We may safely predict, however, that Southern reconstruction will be interrupied and de- layed, that confusion will be worse confounded between President and Congress and in the Southern States, and that there will be no peace and nd¢econstraction until this admin- istration and the pretest Congress and this rabid and revolutionary repubiiven * EN ty aro wep, out of power by a new pariy movement representing wi will of tho people Reported Rupture Between the President and General Grant. It seams very probable that thore ix at least suspension of amicxble relations between the President and General Grant. Reporis from all sources agree in the stetement of this fact, which is the more credible as it was hardly to be expected that two men so pecu- Viarly positive in the views they hold and so different in several respects could avoid col- lision for any considerable time. General Grant, having struggled with some persistency on one side of the great combat, and having seen so much blood poured out to realize the triumph of that side, very naturally holds some fixed opinions as to what the triumph of the conqueror should secure ; while the President has lately given so much thought to arguments cileulated to gut the case of the rebels in the most favorable light that he is hardly able to sympathizo with the dis- tinguished soldier. This was enough to make it certain that a rupture between the two was only doubtful as to the time it would occur. It is said that Grant paid the President the dubious compliment of assuring him that he had done a real service to the country in opposing the constitutional amendment, since his opposition “prevented ils adoption, and thereby also prevented the admission of the enemies of the government in the form of sovereign Stites to representation in Con- gress.” It is hinted also that a remark of the President on that order by which Grant directed commanders not fo reinstate any civil officers removed by their predecessors was marked by no betler humor than the above. General Sickles’ report on the cause ot his removal, coming to the light at the same time that we get this news, will naturally give rise to the thought that the discussion of that case haa led to this rupture. It is shown very clearly by Sickles that he was in fall accord wi'h Grant, and it is scarcely a supposable case that the General could accept tamely the coarse diatribe of Stanbery’s worthy substi- tate. Tho Proposed Second Visit of Dickens. Dickens is coming to amuse us and turn an honest penny, ond we naturally recall the history of his former visit, He has enjoyed, more or less, in connection with that visit, the reputation of having cut us up terribly on his return home—of having lashed u3 as with the whip of the Furies on all the s:nsitive spota of our national vanty. He made bis little sketches of us, it is true, in his “American Notes’’ and in “Martin Chazzlowit—sketehes of parsons, of scenes and of society, all distorted, oi course, in the humorous exaggera ion of the caricaturist, and all made in the lampooniag spirit that raises a laugh, right or wrong; for to excite laughter was his trade, Ho gave h's own measure in attompting to give ours, inas- j much as he showed himself blind to all the better qualities that we have in common with every civilized people, and able only to see and describe the pitital and the mean. But with all this, he did not picture us on his fa- mous pages half so badly as we sometimes picture ourselves, and the police reporters often outdo him in sketches made in bis own manner. He may on his s2cond visit also pic- ture @ erude society if he will, and wil! readily find the material he loves to deal with—coarse- ness, vulgarity in thought and speech, pride, pretence, all the vanities that prevail in the frayed out edges of civilized life; but, be will not find them here, In this great city and its suburbs—Boston, Brooklyn and Philadel- phia—civility, culiure, and sll the ele- gances and charms of polite life, are found in as fair a state of development as in any of the capitals of Europe; but we bave still Chicago, St. Louis, Omada, and kindred centres of quite another kind of life. We commend the traveller to these for his pictures; and though the semi-barbaric life of such places has an individuality of its own, is proper to the locality, and ought not in justice to be compared to chop house or other life in London that the novelist is familiar with, still the con- teast will be ridiculous ani laughable; and, of course, from the Dickens siandpoint, whatever is langhable ought to be written—and sold. So let us have the pictures, Bat Dickeus comes io read, perhaps not te write; he comes not as a driveller, but only as a show. He is pumped out as an original genius, and must reap his pecuniary har- vest in reading what he wrote in his better days. This is a venture by which he will make money. We should not be astonished at his making half a million with his ticket at two orthree dollars apiece; for since his works have taken a certain posilion as household classics—since his characters pass current as familiar realities of the intelleetnal realm—the curiosity to see the author will be especially great with the admirers of his stories. We may conceive the enthusiasm witli which Homer would be received to read the iad: and there will be a desire not different in its natare to see this Homer of the sinms and back alleys that will carry our people into a liberal expov- diture of easily earned money. If we could have Demosthenes to give wa! extracts from Lis fiery clamor, or Cicero round bis voluptuous periods to breathless auditors, or Virgil or Shakspeare or Milton to give us theiy own notions of some choice scenes, we should have an intellectual treat than which a pol could not he imagined; and, to compare ay with greater names, it will to many be same treat to sce the author of « rid Co field” taking In person some prelinnin ry ment of the eternily of his fame. ¥ Statement of the Pubic rs from the statement of bie 7 published in yesterday's It debt . there has been a decrease within the lust that ix, from September 1, 1866, to Septer r- ber 2, 1867—of seventy millions five hondred and seventy-one thousand dollars. So far this is gratifying? but the question is, eoull not the debt have been reduced mach more We believe it could. With tbe enorme the vast sama of money always in the Treawry, and the extraordivery revonrees and means of reven the Treasyry Department, we think there «hould } « then, is have been a greater reduction.

The Peace Congress at Geneva. By a cable despatch of Wednesday we were made aware that a Peace Conference was to be held at Geneva on the 9th instant. The same telegram gives us a limited list of the distin- gaished men who are to take part in the pro- ceedings. Victor Hugo, Louis Blanc, Jules Favre, Joseph Garibaldi—those are the honored names. Why did the list not include ss well Joseph Mazz‘ni, Louls Kossnth and General Prim? Manifestly, the meeting of the brother- hood will be imperfect without them. Kossuth, possibly, is too busy deciding the question whether be shall return to Hungary, and what policy he will adopt if he does, Mazzini, we know, has special reasons for not taking a trip where he knows his every footstep would be dogged and where his every word would be chronicled and reported. General Prim, again, is busy as be cau be with his pronwncia- mienfos and his revolution in Spain. The “Reds,” therefore, to whom Europe owes 80 auch, cannot all be in Geneva on the 9th. But what is the bond of union between the men whose presence is expected? Victor Hago and Louis Blane are both of them volun- tary exiles, and, so far as that goes, must have & common sympathy, It is not so easy to sce what there is in common between Favre and Garibaldi, or between either and Hugo and Blanc. Favre is a republican and Garibaldi isa king maker. Favre not only lives under a government which Louis Blanc detests, but he is remembered for a vote he once gave in favor of a prosecution of which Louis Blanc was the object, It is, we are told, to be a Congress of Peace. Victor Hugo, we know, was President of the Peace Congress fn 1849; but that Garibaldi, who is not unwilling at the present moment to make an attack on Rome, should propose to take part ina Peace Congress, is, to say the least of it, a little absurd. Wo do not autur peace but war from the coming together of such flery spirits. It is not long since asim‘lar gathering took place in Brussols, The imme- diate results wero a descent by General Prim on tho coast of Spain, frosh agitation in France and Jialy, and @ murderous attack on tho (mperor Alexander of Russia. In the name of peace mischief will be plotted. The Election in California—The Reaction. The intemperancé and violence of the radi- cal party leaders and’ their organs are having their effect upon the country, and indicate a popular morement against the policy of negro supremacy. This is evidenced by tho recent election in California ; by the increase of the democratic vote and the great falling off in the strength of the republicans in that State. California is slow to fecl the influence of a political reaction. This was shown in the commencement of the rebellion, as well as in the subsequent issue between tho President and Congress on the question of r-construo- tion. The fact that the republican party in California was rent asunder by intornal dis- sensions, and that the opposition vote his been materially increased, will materi uly influence the result of the elociions in New York and Pennsylvania, and probably in Ohio. In the latter State the democrats have committed serious blunders and will be damaged by their own folly. But in Pennsylvania and this State we shall not be surprised to se a gen- eral reaction, and the entire overthrow of the party that is seeking to control the government by 9 coalition of the Puritan and the nigzer. The Trouble in % We are informed by the cable that the Span- ish government “bas sent out orders for the immediate return of the Spantsh feet in the Pacific.” ‘This is significant of trouble nearer home. Spain finds that she has more pressing busmess on her hands than bombarding the unprotected cities of South American repub- lies, Her rotten government may soon need every gun it has on land or sea to retain do- minion over her own cities and people. CASTE, AT THE BROOXLYN ACADEMY. Robertson's beautiful comedy, Caste, was produced jast night at tbe Brookiva Academy of Music, under the direction of Mr. C. W. Tayleure, with Mr. end kira, W, J. Florence, Mrs, ¥. 8, Chanfrau and several o:her popu- lar favorites in the company. The house was well filled with an andience which showed cleariy its ability to appreciate artistic excellence whenever exhibited.

Seoretary Browning is rapidly rocovertug from bis late ilineas, and was at the loterior Department fora sbort time to-day. He expects to attend the meeting of the Cabinet to-morrow, az {t is the dosire of the President that all tho members of the Cabinet in the city may be present. Questions of great importance are to be discussed, and among othor things the long talked of Amnesty Prociamation, which, it is understood, is mow im shape, though not finally decided upon. This ig one reason why the President requests all the members of bis Cabinet to attend the meeting to~ morrow, I may state im this connection that the idv-a of a general amnesty moets with great favor here, and ts regarded as one of the best developments of the Presi- dont’s policy lately, Owing to tho silence of the Presideat and every member of the Cabinet on the sub- ject, I am not able to supply you with any reliable information as to the exact character of the coming prociamation. Ramors of Cabinet Changes. ‘The rumor is again current to-n'ght that both Seward and McCalloch are soon to rosign and make way for men more in accord with the President, Inquiry does not justify mo in stating that there is new cause of diff. culty calculated to hasten the resignation of these two officials, I can only report what has been so often an- nounced before, that there seems to bo little doubt that they will soon rotire to private life, probably at an earlier day than most people imagine.
