Congress, such as abolishing imprisonment for debt, to release municipalities from their responsibility to the Executive and to call a convention in 1870 to amend the constitution, The first two will probably be adopted. ‘The steamers Dean Richmond and Vanderbilt collided near Rondout, on the Hudson, yesterday moraing be- tween one and two o'clock, and the Richmond eaak almost immediately, Although there was a large list of passen- gers on board they were nearly all saved, only two per- fons being reported missing.

General Sheridan arrived in Washinaton last night. The troop ship Himalaya, with the Sixtieth Rifle rogi- ment of the British army, is reported detained at Quar- antine Island, near Quebec, with Asiatic cholera on board, Tho Approaching Political Campaign, North and West. Our Cincinnati and Cleveland correspond- ence, published on Thursday ; our correspond- ence from Pennsylvania, published a few days ago, as well as that which we are receiving daily from other parts of the North and West, all show that a great and widespread reaction has commenced against the dominant radical party. The people, who gave the republicans their votes and support, during the war and since, did so for quite a different object from that which the party is now pursuing. That party was placed in power, frst, to prosecute the war for the Union to a successful issue, and, second, to harmonize and restore the country, as it promised to do, upon the basis of tho constitutional amendment. When it went beyond this and created a military despotism over the South; when it attempted te subvert the constitution, or rather to ignore it alto- gether, its leaders boldly declaring the country in a siate of revolution, and when its object to establish negro supremacy anda negro balance of power became apparent, the people saw they had been cheated. Had the members of the present Congress, when candidates, gone before, the people with such a revolutionary programme, they would have been defeated. They have played a confidence game upon the public, and, acting as the masters rather than the servants of the people, have defied the sen- timent of the country. This infamous conduct has produced its fruit. The public mind is be- coming enlightened and a general reaction has set in, The radical press, though evidently much alarmed, attempts to explain away the true cause of the republican losses in Maine and California ; but that is a hopeless task. Every one knows the cause is general; that local issues have had little to do with it, and that it lies in the dissatisfaction of people generally with the negro supremacy policy of the radi- cals. It is found, in fact, in the common sense and patriotism of the mass of the people revolting against the faithlessness and destruc- tive measures of Congress. But our corre- spondence shows beyond doubt that an extra- ordinary reaction is going on in all the great Central States and in the West. The general issue as regards negro suffrage and negro supremacy is the same everywhere—the same in Pennsylvania, New York, Ohio and the other States, and the same as entered into the elec- tions in California and Maine. In these latter States, however, the contest was tame com- pared with what it will be, from all appear- ances, in the elections to come off during the next two months. There is another important question looming up prominently in the ean- vass, particularly in Ohio and other parts of the West, and that is the financial question. This threatens to prove as disastrous to the radicals as their nigger worshipping policy. The Chase radical policy for perpetuating a moneyed oligarchy and despotism is viewed with as much disfavor in the West, among all parties, as negro supremacy. The mass of the republicans, as well as the democrats, are bitterly opposed to the national bank mo- nopoly, to contraction of the currency, to the bondholders being exempt from taxation, and to all the other measures of Chase, Jay Cooke, McCulloch and their friends in favor of a moneyed oligarchy. The industrious classes— the farmers, laborers, mechanics and trades- men—see ruin staring them in the face if this wretched financial system be perpetuated. They see that an enormous debt will be fast- ened upon them, their labor taxed beyond for- bearance, their means of paying their taxes and debts greatly reduced, and the prospect of universal bankruptcy ; and all to favor the national bank monopoly, the bondholders and capitalists. Looking at the rapid growth of public opinion in opposition to the ‘radical financial policy, there is reasgn to believe the party will be defeated in the West on this issue alone. The whole tenor of our correspondence indicates such a result. But the main question occupying the public mind at present is that of negro suffrage and a negro balance of power in the republic. The prospect of the whole South being governed by the ignorant and uncivilized ‘negroes, of these benighted blacks holding the balance of political power in the republic, of taking their seats in Congress, and of dominating over the people of our own superior race, with the de- gradation and rain that must follow—these are the thoughts so repulsive to the mass of the Northern people. It is this fearful prospect, brought before us by radical rule, that has created a revulsion in the public mind, and that will surely overwhelm the party that has brought the country to such a deplorable con- dition. The great reactionary movement of the day is not one in favor of the democratic party, and least of all in favor of the copper- head faction. The questions at issne are new ; old party dogmas and platforms haye become obsolete. The masses of the people which have voted on both sides are now coming together as the great constitutional party. They are disgusted with the disorganizing anid revo- lntionary conduct of the radicals, and with the infamous attempt to Africanize the republic by creating a negro balance of power. That is the real state of things ; and if we mistake not the signs of the times the radicals will be defeated in the great Central States, as well as in the West, at the coming elections. The moderate and conservative republicans should throw off their destructive leaders and unite with others to form the great constitutional party of the dR. BROADWAY AND ANN STREET.

We learn, by special telegram, that the In- | rise have resulted in no greater mischief than dian ultimatum to our Commissioners is “the withdrawal of the troops from the Powder river country and the abandonment of the Smoky Hill Pacific Railroad.” They also de- mand “ guns, ammunition and presents.” This is the result of the tedious and: useless attempts to arrange our Indian difficulties peaceably. It is no wonder that the Indians ingult us. We might well expect it after teaching them, through our dishonest agents, that we are a8 unreliable as they are themselves, Respect for us, they have none, and least of all for our military prowess, They have tried their skill and strategic powers with our regular army, to find us their inferiors. Now they say, “ We do not want peace, because when we are at peace we are poor; now we are rich.” This is all too true ; for how can they be other than poor when an Indian appropriation of fifty thousand dollars will, before it reaches our frontier, dwindle down to one red blanket and a string of beads? In war, owing to their more rapid tactics, they can make their own appropria- tions, and that, too, from the government sup- plies to our army. They constantly do it, and scarcely @ day passes in which we fail to chronicle the loss of army wagons, the driving off of cattle and horses from some outpost, and the useless pursuit by our sluggish troops. Onur tactics do not fit the war, and our army brains, schooled in the grooves of 3 routine out of which they appear worthless, are totally ata loss how to hold the Indians in hand. We annually bleed our Treasury many millions of dollars for Indian war purposes on one hand and Indian presents on the other. In peace we fur- nish them with all the munitions. of war they may desire, and in war we wonder where they get their weapons, The old Spaniards were wiser than we in dealing with the Indian tribes on this Continent, for they made it a criminal offence to sell firearms to an Indian. An Indiag war is, however, zpoe us, The blunders, right and ieft, which have made it necessary will not now mend affairs. We must to-day accept the fact, look it in the face, and prepare to fight it out. The question is, how can it best be brought to a conclusion? Cer- tainly not by our regular troops; for the whole past history of our frontier indicates a com- plete failure of the army whenever this duty has been assigned to it. There is but one method, and that is by volunteers. The Gov- ernor of every frontier State and every Terri- tory should have authority to keep the Indians quiet in his district, and to raise a sufficient volunteer force for the purpose—tho bills to be paid by the general government. The troops thus raised should be placed in command of volun- teer officers, who, selected from our ablest fron- tiersmen, understand Indian tactics, have per- sonal wrongs to avenge and a local responsi- bility to urge them to action. Let them not be afraid to take a scalp. The Indian appreciates force and nothing else. If this method be pur- sued we shall close our Indian war in less than six months, and at the minimum cost. If it be carried on in the present style the country may prepare itself to be bled of its treasure for the next ten years, only to find the Indian question as unseitled then ag it is to-day. The Citizens’ Association on Our City Gove ernment. ‘The Citizens’ Association of this city has addressed a lengthy document to the State Constitutional Convention, in which it takes the ground that the abolition of State commissions in New York would tend “to destroy all hope of ever attaining good government.” The Association, over the signature of Peter Cooper, its chairman, maintains that the State commis- sions in the metropolis have done a great deal of good; and, to carry out this assertion, it cites examples from the records of the Police, Excise, Fire and Board of Health Commission- ers. At the same time the communication refers to certain “jobs” in which the Common Council, elected by voters of the city, have been concerned. The Association, therefore, recommends that the metropolis of America be given entirely into the hands of the State govern- ment, and that commissions, utterly independ- ent of each other, should be placed in authority over us. Now, there are many highly intelli- gent gentlemen in the Citizens’ Association, and their opinions are entitled to consideration, if they were unbiased by reckless politicians, But, in partitioning out the city departments among irresponsible and independent commis- sions, without any recognized municipal author- ity to control them, we think they labor under a serious mistake. It looks as if Mr. Poter Cooper and his associates were trying to es- tablish a millennium, when they propose surren- dering all the public offices into the hands of a number of politicians, whose only responsibility is in being appointed by another set of poli- ticlans. How much better would it be if all the municipal power and appointments were concentrated into the hands of one man, the Mayor, elected by the voters of this city, who are the best judges of their own interests. Let such an office be an annual one, so that if the incumbent prove forgetful of the trust reposed in him the people of New York may replace him by some more trustworthy representative. Then we can know at once who is the respon- sible party on whom to call for the ameliora tion of abuses and the strict dispensation of justice. Under the rule of State commissions we know not who is really responsible, or at least the responsibility is divided to such an extent that it is impossible to reach the authors of abuses and wrongs perpetrated under the cover of law. The letter of the Citizens’ Asso- ciation besides treats the metropolie «* America as a paltry village, and gives it; er rights. Its business, commerce and inf » demand more consideration, and its cit .eus wish to have some one authority to consult in reference to its government. With a Mayor as the sole executive of the laws of the State and its own local statutes, the metropolis would be far more beneficially and satisfactorily governed than under the rule of irresponsible commissions. a Railroad of the Contract. e The most important item in the news from Aspinwall this morning is the extension of the Panama Railroad Company's contract for the term of ninety-nine years. In the news col umas of the Heratp will be found a full and accurate translation of this important docu- ment, from which it will be seen that the con- ditions are highly advantageous to both con- tracting parties. The people of the whole Continent may be thankfal that this vexed question is finally disposed of, and that the intrigaes to which the clash of European snd American interests on the Isthmus had given an almost bloodless revolation in Colombia. It remains to be seen what course will be adopted by the European capitalists iu whose favor Mosquera was playing his high handed game in order to recover the stakes they risked. The Dean Richmond Disaster. The dreadful collision between the steamers Vanderbilt and Dean Richmond on Thursday night, in the vicinity of Rondout, on the North river, resulted in the sinking of the Dean Richmond and imperilled nearly four bundred lives. It is reported, indeed, that but two or three lives were actually lost; but it must be difficult to verify the fact that only so few perished. From the minute details which are given in another column of the Henap it seems that such a disaster could not have occurred, to quote the statement of one of the rescued passengers, “on a fine night, with @ bright, full moon,” without most gross and culpable negligence on the part of one or both of the pilots, The officers and crew of the Dean Richmond, it is said, remained on board until the last, and those of the Vander- bilt united with them and many passengers on both boats in praiseworthy efforts to savo all, and especially the very large number of women and children. The self-possession and courage of the colored woman who had charge of the ladies’ cabin on the Dean Richmond are highly commended by another of the rescued pas- sengers. We are reluctant to condemn indis- criminately the officers of either boat before a thorough investigation of the causes of the disaster. But such an investigation is impera- tively required at once; and as there cannot but be “somebody to blame” in so flagrant and shocking a dase of disastrous negligence, we earnestly hope that the guilty parties will be discovered and promptly and severely punished. No rhetoric can exaggerate the terrible alarm and confusion to which the passengers of the two steamers were suddenly awakened from their slumbers, or the tragical consequences to which Ztdreds of lives werg exposed by the collision. We trast that the American public will need no more startling accidents of this kind to cure its proverbial recklessness of human life. ~ Burking the New Constitution—The Tadl- cals See Danger Ahead. The republican party in this State is hedging. All the ery that the recent results in California and Maine mean nothing—that they are due only to local troubles—is merely meant for the people. The leaders do not believe it. They see danger ahead, and see the necessity of mod- itying some of their political extravagances. Hence their hedging. They want to try at the last moment to make radicalism less repulsive. This is the meaning of that latest point in the party programme, the smotlering for this year of that bran-new radical constitution that the political ninnies have been tinkering over all summer. Radicalism is in sufficiently bad odor now, and it is seen that the new constitution would finish it outright. If they had local troubles in the other States, we will have local troubles here too. Indeed, there will doubtless be local troubles wherever radicalism has been rampant. Republicanism will find that its local troubles here are “free lager” and the constitutional skeleton in the closet. Fenian Fray in Manchester. Fenianism, it appears, is not yet dead. It has reappeared in Manchester—reappeared to the annoyance of the authorities and to the temporary inconvenience at least of Colonel Kelley. It is rather a funny circumstance that the Fenians, when it was supposed they were squelched beyond all hope of recovery, should win their first victory. It will scarcely sur- prise us if we are informed by next cable news that a fresh rising has taken place in Dublin, Cork and the other Irish centres, If the English police are not strong enough to preserve order the world will not blame the Fenians for making themselves masters of the situation. RASTORI—FRANCESCA DA RIMINI. Asad story of love and jealousy of the trae Italian type, did Silvio Pellico trace out with his blood in the soli- tude of the dungeon. A tale of forbidden love like what the old Greek tragedians conjured up in Phoodra and Myrrha, and one which demands from each character an intensity of passion and emotion to the highest degree painful, The cruel fate of the unhappy wife torn in heart between her guilty yet ungovernable love for the brother of her husband and lord, and pouring out her life blood in the vain attempt to reconcile the brothers, has been told in every clime in the passionate verse of Dante, It was related to the audience at the French Theatro last might by Ristori. Nay, not related only, but B ay to the life, so that the stage became the palace Ri- mini and cesca and Paolo’s hurried interview seemed adread reality. Madame Ristori renewed hor former triumphs and gave an admirable impersonation of Lan- ciotto’s hapless wife. Every cadence of the voice, in the beautiful language of her native clime, every move- ment, every gesture, every glance, every convulsion of passion, seemed that of notof Ristori. She Bu led in some of the more passionate scenes in making the audience forget that it was but an accom- piished actress who stood before them, and not the vic- tim of the lava passions of the South, Guido's daughter, Lanciotto’s wife and Paolo's beloved. Michele Bozzo made his debut in the roie of Paolo, and gave satisfactory evidence of being a thorough artist of high powers and consummate training. Cesare Ristori played the father's part admirably, and deserves the highest praise for his success {n such a difficult and ungrateful character, ‘‘ Mary Stuart’ is on the bilis for to-night and ‘Elizabeth’? for Monday. “Sur Teresa’? and a gi are in rehearsal and will be shortly pro. ut THE DEATH OF SIR FREDERICK BRUCE.

Count Bismarck’s Interpretation of the Salz- burg Conference—Opinion of the English and French Press. Loxpox, Sept. 20, 1867. Count von Biemarck has recently addressed a circular note to the diplomatic representatives of Prussia in re- gard to the conference of the Emperors Napoleon and Francis Joseph at Saltzburg. The document has just been published, and is the principal subject of editorial discussion in the English and continental newspapers, In it Count Bismarck says that Prussia is willing to accept the representations made by France that the con- feronce at Salzburg should be regarded as a plodgeof peace. He also makes many allusions to the union of the German States, The London journals comment favorably upon this note, regarding it as pacific in tone and tranquilizing in its tendency. ‘The French pross, while they seem disposed to find little fault with what M. Bismarck says, denounce the circular, because ia all its references to German unity it completely ignores the Treaty of Prague and omits all allusion to the obligations under which Prussia rests to fulfill the stipulations of that solema compact.

Nothing of importance transpired at the Cabinet meeting to-day. The session lasted nearly two hours, but the business was of a routine character. All the members were present except General Grant and Secre- tary Browning; the latter was reprosented by Agsiatant Secretary Otto. Arrival of General Sheridan. Gonerat Sheridan, accompanied by three members of his staff, arrived here this ‘evening on the five o'clock train from Baltimore in a special car placed athis serviog by the Baltimore and Ohio Rail ‘oad Company, He was met at the depot Colonel Crosby, of his staff, who reached here this morning. There was no reception of any kind and n¢ unusual gathering of spectators, though the time of his arrival was pretty generally known, The General wat ip citizen’s dress, and scarcely attracted any attention, being recognized by but few persons. He was imme diately driven to his hotel, where he dined with Gonera’ Sickies, General Hancock, James T. Brady and Hon. W. E, Robinson, General Sheridan was called upon thit evening by @ large number of his friends, civil ani military, He will havean interview with General Grant - to-morrow. General Sickles=Interview with General Grant=—Demand for a Court of Inquiry— Governor Orr, Of South Carolina, Endorses General Sickles’ Course while in Command of the District.” Gonerat Sloktsg had « protracted interview with Gene- ral Grant at the War Department t6-day, No defluite conclusion was reached in his case, and he is Still here awaiting orders, He has made a fret demand for a court of inquiry to examine into hig admin- istration of affairs in the Second Military Disssict. If it is not granted he will probably resign his commis-~ ajon in the army, forthe purpose of making a reply to the charges made againstjhim by President Johnson in his proclamation, While he remains in the army he cannot, he says, vindicate himself in any other way than bya court of inquiry. Failing to obtain that, he proposes to resign and go before the people. General Sickles received an official letter from Gov ernor Orr, of South Carolina, this evening, in which the latter states that while he was at first opposed to some of General Sickles’ orders while in command of the Third Military district, he is now satisfied that his ad- ministration was, on the whole, marked by great wis- dom, moderation and forbearance. This, he says, is the sentiment of the clement in South Carolina which he (Orr) represents. He further states that he believes the people of South Carolina are largely indebted to General Sickles’ administration for much of the pros- perity and good order prevailing there, The Governor closes his letter, which is quite lengthy, with expres- sions of regret atthe removal of Sickles. Intelligence has been received here to tho effect that the wealthier classes of the people of North and South Carolina have petitioned General Canby, now in command there, to continue in force Gencral Sickles’ Order No. 10, They represont that if it is rescinded the effect will be to beggar them, because if their land is put upat public sale under the present depressed condition of affairs there i will not bring one-half its real value. fhe petition has been widely circulated through the two States, and is said to be numerously signed by prominent men, as well among the negroes as the white land owners. Gen- eral Canby is not disposed, it is said, to undo any of the acts of his predecessor, General Hancock. General Hancock has availed himself of the order of General Grant allowing all officers ordered to the Fifth Military District where the yellow fever is pre- vailing, until the 13th of October to report, He made a formal application to Gencral Grant to-day to this effect, ‘and it was immediately granted. He will leave in a day or two for St. Louis, where he proposes spending afew days. Anxiety for the Safety of the United States Steamer Dale. Some anxiety is felt for the safety of the United States ship Dale, she having been absent for the past two months on # practice cruise, with a number of midship- men from tho Naval Academy at Annapolis. The Savannah and Macedonian arrived last week, and the Dale was expected about the same time. At the Navy Department, there is no fear of her safety, as she is in charge of competent officers, and it is very likely she will be home in the course of three or four days, The National Finances.
