NEW YORK’ HERALD, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 26, 1968—TRIPLE SHEEP. WASHINGTON. THE AMNESTY PROCLAMATION. The Feeling Among Conservatives and Rail- cals at the National Capital. Wasuinaron, Dec, 25, 186% The President's amnesty proclamation excites very little comment here, either from republicans or democrats, The latter, of course, praise it, wnile the extreme radicals severely condemn it. Moderate mop, aych as Senator Trumbull, look upon itas of Uttle fmbortance either way. They say it settles nothing except the mere question of the pardon ofa fow men engaged in the rebellion Wo were not cov- ered by previous proclamations of a similar character, The other questions of political rights, the restora- tion of property, &c,, must be settled by the courts, so that the proclamation is regarded as relieving such men as Davis, Breckinridge and Jake Thompson from being prosecuted for treason only, The mod- erate republicans think it can do no harm, and may do sum’ g000 by taking away from the people ot the South the fecine of dissatisfaction and resentment which they have fel af the threatened punishment which has heretofore hung over their leaders, and, by implication, over, themselves, Radicals lke General Butler think the issuing of the procia- mation an unwarranted act of ainiority on the part of the President. They threaten t@rent it as of no effect, and some of them even go so far a8 to talk of & new impeachment of the President. This, how- ever, finds little favor among those now here. Able lawyers like Senator Trumbull say Congress cannot do anything to set the proclamation aside, even if they were so disposed, though it 1s probable some such foolish attempt will be made by those more zealous than prudent, Opinions of the Newspaper Press Upen the President’s Amnesty Proclamation. 4. (From the Washington Saree aig (administration organ), ec. 25.) ‘The proclamation by the President of general and unconditional amnesty to all participating in the late rebellion—{published in the HeRaLD yesterday]— will be read with more than common interest. It is brief in its terms, and, like ail the other State papers of the President, direct and perspicuous. * * * It cannot be said that the President has acted hastily or qe in this important matter. Every eat} has been en advisedly, and upon a full consideratton of the condition of public senti- ment, and the best interests of the country, its per- manent honor, welfare and safety. His first act of amnesty, issued soon after the close of the war, pardoned by one act the masses of those lately in Tesistance to the federal authority, but all those prominent by office, wealth or influence were omitted tor rand more special consideration. Gradually, by special pardons, and by successive acts of amnesty, the number of those exciuded from pardon was reduced to a comparatively few persons, until by the proclamation of the 4th of July last there were less than a hundred excluded, being those who were under indictment _ in the fede- ral courts. This included Mr. Davis, General Lee, General Breckinridge and other prominent men of the confederacy; but among the list thus still shut out from the beneilts of the amnesty were not a few persons who were much less conspicuous than many of those whose pardons had already been granted, with the approval of the couniry. in this connec- tion we may note the fact that both the great Bs ties of the country are in a measure committed to approve this act of general amnesty by the Presi- dent. The democratic party, assembled in con- vention at New York, planted itself on the broad ground of “amnesty for all political offences; and the republicans, by falling to insist in their plat- form upon the application of the penal laws on the statute book against Mr. Davis and his assuciates, may be regarded as substantially yielding to the position assumed by many of their leading speakers and writers, namely, “universal suffrage and uni- versal amnesty.”” * hd bo * * Intelligent, sagacious, and eminently practical, the American people are to-day sincerely anxious for peace, harmony and a real restoration of the Union ; they Want not merely a territorial sovereignty, but a knitting together once more in fraternal harmeny qf the forces lately jarring and at war, destined soon, we trust, to “march ail one way.’ ‘this yearning of tie national heart is not vo be put of witn words or promises; tt demands substantial positive acts. The proclaination of to-day will be hailed as a real tangibie step towards peace. {From the Philadelphia Press (Congress organ), Dec. 25. President Johnson's proclamation, in which he deliberately sets himself against the fourteenth con- stitutional amendment, and attempts to pardon the enemies of the government in the late rebellion, is the latest of his eleventh hour expedients. There seems to be little opportunity or even disposition to punish these reckless men; but if anything could in- duce Congress to refuse to relieve them it is tis cou- stant effort of the President to dely the constitution end the laws and to set them free under his own pro- clamation, The question has been repeatedly set- tied that lis pardoning power does not reach these cases; but he seems disposed to dis- card all authority, and to terminate his career in the Presidency by proving that his counsel in the beginning of it, Uiat “éraliors suould be punished and be made to take a back seat,” Was ulierly insincere and dishonest, Should Davis, Beauregard, Mason and others attempt to resume their righta under this proclamation @ case will be made up of some interest, Cougress will, no doubt, take early notice of it. {From the Providence Journal (organ of United States Senator Antuony), Dec. 25. The President has issued a proclamation extend- ing amnesty and pardon, without reservation, to all the participants in the late rebellion, and restoring, 80 far a8 executive prociamation can, all their for- feited rights and immunities. This proclamation wilienable a number of distinguished exiles to re- ture to the land they sought to rend in twain. Fur- oo that it will accomplish litue for good or e {From the Washington Chronicle (Congress radical), Dec. 25.) We print elsewhere te latest proclamation of An- drew Johnson. This time he proclaims a universal amnesty, Inciuding in it even the chiefs of the re- bellion, This much, at least, must be satd for him in this connection—viz., that he shows a certain sense of poetic fitness tn selecting Christmas Day for his proclamation of “peace on earth and good wiil to men.” it will be recollected that his last amnesty proclamation also appeared to have been issued with an eye to dramatic as well as politica! effect, the day selected being the Fourth oi July and the day of the assembling of the democratic nominating convention. As Davis was in a iair way to be re- leased by the courts he will not have so very much for which to thank Mr. Johnson. In view of the latter's plebelan origin this circumstance will doubtless be pleasing to his aristocratic coacelt. [From the Baltimore American (Congress rad- ical), Dec. 2 President Johnson yesterday issued his expected amnesty prociamation exteading pardon, uucondi- tionally and without reservation, for the offence of treason to the United States and adhering to their enemies to ail parties concerned in the late rebellion, with @ restoration to ali their rights, immunities an: rivileges under the constitution and the laws. yhile the pardon puts an end to the Jeff Davis case and euables Breckinridge, Slidell, Mason and others, now abroad, to return to the United states, 10 does not reiieve either these or any other parties from the disabilities unposed by the iourteenih constitu- tional amendment, it simply reeves them from prosecution for treason. (From the New Haven Palladium, (Congress radical), Bee, 26. Andrew Johnson, who began hia Presidency by romising to hang Jet? Davis and his brother rebels, Eee issued a proci@mation giving them complete amnesty, It if of course an inconsistency, but we do not care to find fault with it, None of ihe rebels would have been punished and none desigu that they should. To be pardoned by Andrew Jolineon is fan additional ignominy. {From the New Haven Journal (Congress radical), ec. 25, ° ‘This season of “peace, good will to m dent Johnson has seen proper to comme issuing the prociamation of universal amuesty, pub- lished in another column.

The season for this exhibition of B clemency and good sense is well chosen to tilustrate the benign influeuces of peace and good will toward men. ‘That the “prudential reservations and exceptions” ade on past occasions “may now be wisely and tly relinquished” 1s aconviction shared with the President by ali reasonable and jd patriotic men; by all who have breadth of mind and heart sufficient 40 recognize in the grand act now prociaimed a deed worthy of the magnanimity of a great and powerlul nation.

WH AsuINGTON, Dec. 25, 1858. Attorney General in the New Cabinet. Almost every leading pubtic ,'OUrna! throughout the country has had a slate Cabine. Composed and ex- hibited in tts columns as the undou.0!ed real thing, every position being filled except that “Attorney General,” which has been left entirely blawk in most or all instances, This has not been because ef its being at the foot of Cabinet appointments and the most insignificant of them; but from being in entire Uncertainty as to whom the position would be likely to be bestowea upon. General Butler has been hinted at, but he would, doubtless, prefer remain~ ing in the House. Butler would not be himself at all unless he had an extensive field and wide latitude tm which to move and work in, Limited, circum- scribed and systematized, lus fire, force and effective- ness Would all be lost. His forte is not as adviser, sage or cownsellor, or in any routine of duties where vhe dry dign DSS wou'4 have to predominate, It is altogether in a diferent spheic Sat General Butler Would be of service, @% on the stump, {Le rostrum, at the bar or in the House, where the widest liberty of language and roaring eloquence with entire free- dom of movement mik't be exhibited with more propriety than any Cabinet position could permit, There is every probability to suppose that the posi- tion of Attorney General will be offered to the Hon. James F. Wilson, of lowa, now and for several years past chairman of the House Judiciary Committee. For several reasons he will likely be called into the Cabinet. Having a powerful friend at court in Speaker Colfax, with whom he has had a long inti- mate personal friendship, and who desires his pre- sence and, douptlessly, Mr. Wilson 1s also the choice of the people of the vast country west of the Mississippi river, who claim justly representation in the Cabinet. The Proposed Indian Department. Tho bill for creating a separate Department of In- dian Affairs will meet with strong oppogition. There is a powerful sentiment ia favor of the measure, but there Is an equally powerful ring opposed to it. From all the indications that now present themselves this subject will also go over with the finances to the first session of the Forty-first Congress, Quarantine in St. Tuomas and Porto Rico. The United States Consul at St. Juan, Porto Rico, reports that on account of the notice given by the newspapers of Dominica that suspicious cases of cholera had occurred at Guadeloupe the govern- ments of St. Thomas and Porto Rico have prohibited the admission into those islands of vessels coming from Guadeloupe, and have ordered that vessels from the windward islands, with the ‘exception of the Virgin Isles, shall be subject t® a quarantine. Improvements in the Channel at Altoaa, Holstein. The United States consul at Altona, in Holstein, writes to Secretary McCulloch that by recent im provements at that port there ia a regular draught of water, winter and summer, to accommodate the largest mercantile ships. The Tameriane, of Phila- Gelphia, arrived at Altona December 8, drawing twenty feet of water. This1s a great improvement for those engaged in the North German trade, as hitherto all ships to Hamburg encountered lighter- age, while they may now come to the port of Altona without breaking cargo. The Hamburg and Ameri- ean steam packet ships never take Hamburg jn sum- mer, but go to Glueckstadt. The consul states that at all seasons of the year, except when the river is frozen, ships of the largest size may come to Altona. A Resurvey of Now York Distilleries, . The Commissioner of Internal Revenue has directed the resurvey of the distilieries in the city of New,| York, for the purpose of ascertaining more accu- rately their producing capacity, and with the view also of making a proper allowance for the effect of dry measurement, as well as for the period during which the fermenting tubs are required by law to re- main in employ after cach mash. ‘Tue Children’s Party at the White House.
