The trial, it is understood, is to commence on the first Monday in June, at Richmond, Va — The report in The Commercial Advertiser of last evening of the death of Senator Wright of Ne Jersey, seems to be premature, The Newark Adver- tiser of last evening says that he has had a stroke of paralysis, and lies in a criticai condition, but a dis- patch from Trenton received at miduight says that no news of his death had been received there, Gen. Onrmts 8. Ferry is U, 8, Senalor elect from Counecticut for six years from the 3d of March next, when the term of the Hon, Lafayette 8. Foster will | expire. The Senate yesterday concurred with the House in electing him by a strict party vote: Ferry 13; Hubbard (Dem.) 8. Gen. Ferry is an able, earn- est and eloquent champion of advanced Republican principles, and will fill the seat with eminent ability and fidelity. Reconstruction resolves came before the Senato yesterday, when Mr. Sumner begged a postponement of debate until the middle of June, by which time fuller development and investigation of the condition of the South will have taken place. Mr. Fessenden opposed this proposition on the ground that the ques- tion of Reconstruction had already had a fair hearing in Committee; and Mr. Howard followed in a speech explaining the labors of the Cowmittee of Fifteen. Several important amendments were proposed, and the dcbate will proceed. ‘We print in another column a note from Mr. Robert 1. Holmes, one of the counsel for Zeno Burnham, which will help all who have been troubled with any doubts as to the rectitude of Gov. Fenton in granting a pardon in that case to a candid and righteous judg- meut, If we have said little upon the subject it is not becanse we have been troubled with the slightest doult in regard to the Governor's actiom, but be- canse the attempt to make political capital out of it on the part of his opponents seemed too pitiful to re- quire much notice, The truth was sure (o appear ition, intended to embrace the | will be inanga- | paraded on the oceasion of | (ol was excited all day yesterday, selling as hizh as | 13 ond closiy at .

The main feature of the bill was that it continued the Bureau for two years, while the bill vetoed by the President | was indefinite in its duration. An attempt was made | to press the previous question, which was resisted in & | ridiculous speech from Mr. Le Blond. The bill goes | over until to-day. The Tax bill was debated ot length, the paragraph taxing banking deposits excit- ing much discnssion, and being finally rejected by the House. The Income Tax bill was amended o0 as to | | increase the exemption rate from $600 per annum to | $1,000. Losses by fire, shipwreck, and in trade, are to be deducted from the income list. No other busi- | ness of importance was transacted, and the House | adjourned. —— The Evening l‘o;l bas AVWnahmgtou dispatch which says: YTk Committee of Ways and Means have agreed toan amendment of the Tax bill providing that lists of incomes shall not_be published nor furnished for publication; Dbut that they shall be open to private inspection in the oflice of the colloctor.” — We would like to believe this untrue, 1If true, it is surely unfortunate. We believe the publicity given to the returns of income submitted by individuals to the tax-gatherers has already put millions of dollars into the Treasury, gone far toward equalizing the pay- ment of Income Tax by rogues with that of honest men, and saved thousands from being imposed on and | swindled by false pretenses of solvency and wealth tion of wealth belied by their returns of Income of course hate the publicity given to those returns; but why should any honest man seek to pass for more (or less) than he is worth? l | returns nullifies every excuse for interdicting their publication. Ifa thingis fit to be known at al should be accurately known, not to those only who may take special pains to become acquainted with it, but to each and all. The Hon, WiLLiax Weicnr, U. 8. Senator form New-Jersey, died yesterday at his residence in New- ark, N. J., aged about 70. He was a native of this State, but ecarly settled at Newark, where he long did a lacge Dusiness as & manufacturer of saddlery, &c., and made a gener- ous competence. In 1843 he was chosen to Congress, as a bolting Whig candidate, beating (by the help of the Democrats,) the Hon. William B. Kinney, the regular Whig candidate. He was reélected in 1345 without opposition, In 1847, he was the Whig candi- made on purpose to incur debts preordained never to | be paid.

THURNSDAY, MAY 24, 1566, but failed; hence, they were never out; hence, they Dave forfeited no right which they ever possessed; hence, having laid down their arms, they are now en- titled to be represented in Congress, and to do in all things as though they had never revolted.” This logic, followed to its logitimate couclusions, makes the overthrow of Slavery a lawless usurpation, and every exaction or condition insisted on by Presi- dent Johnson a naked abuse of Military power. If it be just, not only these but the Congressional Test- Oath, and every disability inflicted on the late Rebels, are invalid and impertinent. Gov. Seward does not say this in his last Auburn speech. Ho simply presents his play of Hamlet with the part of Hamlet carcfully erased. To the Four Millions of loyal Blacks, the One Hundred and Eighty Thousand Black soldiers who presented their breasts to Rebel bayouets in defense of the Union, he virtually says, * You shall have such rights in the restored Union as your defeated, humbled, chagrined, wrath- ful Rebel masters—defeated in part by your arms— shall see fit to accord you.” Is this the proverbial gratitude of republics? Let us hear Mr, Seward's own callous, evasive statement of the problem: secure the right of lately involved in re not nnprofitably s Uhat the subject of African snflra debated, with no prospect that nn':r‘l‘her of States & uv:mendm t of the Constitution to that effect could be in any waysectired ibfoukhs any form of aotion which Congress could adopt at the present time.” Why “no prospect,” Governor? Why is it that the late Rebel States so readily, unanimously, ae- cepted Emancipation, and repudiated the Rebel debt, yet not one of them has begun to concede that the frecdman has any political rights which Whites are bound to respect? I it not simply because the P dent, with the National sword in his hand, peremyp- torily required the former, and did not require the lat- ter? What use in seeking to befog so plain a matter? | “There is no prospect of the assent of a constitu- tional number of States " to any Right of Suffrage for Blacks, simply because they are told by your maste that the loyal States do not exact it. Hence they say, “If you will enly restore us, red-handed Rebels | | of yesterday, to the Federal power we forfeited by our treason, on condition that we allow the Blacks, your humble compatriots in our great struggle, to enjoy equal rights with ourselves, then we reject your terms, choosing to stay out of Congress till we can come in with flying colors, trampling your Black | allies in our discomfiture under our feet.” The spon- | taneous response of the loyal heart of the Nation is, “Then stay out, and be blest! We can stand it as long as you can. When you have cooled your he sufliciently in the ante-room, come inand welcome | You know the terms, and can find the door whenever | yon want to.” | " Gov. Seward threatens us with defeat if we do not nt in bringing Congress to accept the fact | has ouly begun now to be e assent of a Constitutional | | | | | | | date for Governor, and beaten by the efforts and votes - | of such Whigs as resented his bolting into Congress from his old | in'43. He thercupon became alicnated Whig affiliations, and was soon travsformed into a pro-Slavery Democrat of the Camden-Amboy stripe, which he has ever since remained. In 1552--3 he was chosen a U. 8. Senator to fill & vacancy; reélected in 1#56-7; aud again in 1863; so that his present term would not have expired, had bhe lived, till the 4th of March, 1869, His successor (until one shall be chosen at the next sossion of the Legislatare) is to be appointed by Gov. Marcus L. Ward; and it is nowise probable that the selection will either be dictated or prevented by Mr. James M. Scovel. Mr. Wright wasnot a great statesmen; but he was a gonerous, public-spirited, self-made man, who cherished Lo animosities and never allowed political differeuces to incite personal alienation if he could help it. Now ~iations will cluster around his memory. — GOV, SEWARD'S MANIFESTO. There are to-day inbabiting the United States about Thirty-three Millions of people. Of these, some Eight- een Millions believed in—and upheld the War for the | Union as a just and ary resistance to aristo- eratic conspiracy and unhallowed ambition using the | fanatical devotion of many others to Human Slavery as their fulcrum whereby to upheave the foundations | of our Union, The minority of Fifteen Millions are composed, 1, of the original and implacable Scces- sionists; 2, of a far larger nwnber of Southern people | who had no faith in nor love for Disunion, but who were overswed or coerced into acquiescence in and ultimate support of the Rebellion by systematic false- Liood, violence and terrorism, and by a concerted out- ory, “Defend your hearths and homes! Stand by yourown! &e., &c. Huudreds of thousands were swept into the maelstrom with no idea of dissolving the Union, but in | the belief that, if the South appeared unanimous, con- cessions would be proffered and made by the com- 1 mercial, money-making North which she could proudly | accept, resuming her former position with the prestige and power of a conqueror. | were vehemently assured that, if the Sonth were but unanimons in demanding her “rights," the North durst not refuse them, and that there would be no war—that ouly by Southern unanimity could Civil | War be averted. lina, Tennessee abyss of Treason. e, Arkansas, &c., whelmed in the The third and most numerous section of the minority | | is composed of the Northern Copperheads, whoso | ! Learts were in the main with the Rebellion through- out—not that they wanted disuuion, but that they ac- counted the Republican party the first aggressor and the Rebels more sinned against than sinning—who firmly belicved that the Union could only be restored by buying off the Rebels with fresh concessions and gnaranties to Slavery—who deprecated National vie- | tories as grave impediments to the only possible or truly desirable rennion—who regarded the war merely {‘ as a politicians’ struggle for enpremacy, and pever doubted, whatever might be set forth at Richmond, ! that, if they were in power, they coull negotiate o speedy ** restoration.” In their view, therefore, every | National demonstration against Slavery, whether by confiscating the slaves of Rebels, or arming negroes, or proclaiming Emancipation, was a nail in the cofin of the Union, These three classes, forming a strong minority of Fif- teen against Eighteen Millions of the American people, are now united in counsel and purpose, as they have long been united in sympathy. They mean and con- fidently expect to clntch power over our country in what they agree to call * restoration,” aud to confirm and perpetuate it in the approaching Presidential Election. Their platform has been changed, in spite of them- gelves, by the Abolition of Slavery. Instead of * The Constitution as it is, the Union as it was, and the niggers in eternal bondage,” it is now simply *Up with the Rebel, and down with the Nigger!” The calculation at its base is shrowd and simple: “Restore the Rebels to all that they have forfeited by Rebellion, putting the Blacks under their feet, and we can surely and absolutely monopolize and wicld all the political power of the eleven States lately in revolt, with that of Kentucky, Delaware, and wo trust Maryland aud Missouri,—{or we are a majority of the Whites in those States, aud can unite and sway them on the issne of keeping the Blacks under our feet; with this monopoly as fixed capital, we can exert an enormous commercial influence over the politics of the old-time Free States; thus their Cop- perbead and affiliated politicians will be enabled to carry enough Electoral and Congressional votes therein to give, when combined with ours, a majority; thus making the Government our own Lenceforth for | | | that heis gone, a thousand kindly and grateful asso- | Be true to the Sonth! Obey your State!" | From all sides, those | Thus were Virginia, North Caro- | consign the loyal Blacks to the tender me: of the late Rebels, Our answer is short and simple: Better defeat and loss of power than perfidy and dishonor! In the natural course of events, we must in time give place to our autagonists, How can we lose onr power more nobly than by seeking to do justice to a race which never yet has had justice—which Rebels and Copperheads hate with redoubled venom becanso it powerfully aided to belie their confidant assertions that * The South cannot be conquered!” Every Liberal on earth—every man in Europe who sympa- thized withus in our late trial—unanimously demands ofus the full Enfranchisoment of the Blacks, You cannot find in all Europe one man who calls himself a Republican or Democrat who is not zealousin this de- mand. If we are doomed to fall before the oligarchy which =0 long ruled the land with a rod of iron, why is not this the best possible issue on which to be | | divested of power? ‘ But who knows that we are doomed ! Montgomery | : Blair thought he wore our scalp in his belt when he { returned last Fall to Washington from stumping our State for the Dewocratic ticket; but he didu't. Gov. Seward has ere now proved inapt at prophecy: how | can we be sure that he reads aright the stars to-day 7 We do not care to follow the Premier through bis discussion of the President’s vetoes, nor of the p | priety of admitting to Congroas loyal represents | from cortam States lately in revolt, These to be wmatters of circumstauce and detai thrown in a3 make-weights in the grand controversy. * Has the triumphant Nation a right, in restoring the Rebel States to their former power in the Felera Councils, to exact guaranties that its loyal upliolders,1 who are a majority of the people in several of thoce States, and a very large proportion in the residue, | shall henceforth enjoy equal power and consideration with pardoned Rebels 2 Or shall they be left entirely | at those Rebels' mercy!” Gov. Seward clearly | s himself in line with the Copperheads and | He will induce but few of those o followed, upheld and hono:ed Lim, | to train in that company. Justice, gratit and | public safety, combine to dissuade them, He talks plausibly, but with no such force ice 1, me. | | | | ue. | i softly, smoothl and cogency as in the grand old days when his rang over the land with his beart in it. He is able to darken the future of the great and patriotic party | which once looked to him for inspiration and guidan but the lurid shadow he casts over its fortunes refra no light upon his own. | ! THE LAST BOUNTY BILL. The lobbyist who has the Bounty bill in churge | entitled to the credit of engineering it with great energy aud skill. We believe four bills have beex in- troduced or reported in both Houses, aud eacl Las been telegraphed to the New-York Press. The lust, | reported yesterday by Mr. Wilson from the Seuate Committee on Military Affairs, is accompanied by an claborate and plausible argument in the shape of a report, which is also supplied to the publie in a way that may not be unprecedented, but is certa unusual. Wo do not think any opportunity has bee Lost to press this measare upon the public attention. | But this assiduity and interested a roitness suggest | the inquiry, who are the persons taking so much | trouble? It is evident here is an organized interest— | whose interest is it 7 Who finds it worth while l ploy aud pay experienced agents to keey tho breath of lifo in this bounty-begging scheme? 1§ the prospeet- | ive beneficiaries under the bill bave formed a socicty, and put their canse into the bauds of professional | lobbyists, the fact should be stated. If the cluim- agents and bounty-swindlers, and purchasers of dis- | charge-papers are alone represented in Washington, we should like to know that fact also, In either case, Congress and the public ought to understand what intarest it is that is leagned to push this gigantic raid upon the Treasury. ‘We have scen no evidence that any considerallo proportion of the soldiers who are nominally to bo Dbenefited by the bounty bills desire the passage of any such measure, The amount which each will ro- ceive is comparatively a trifle, while the agzregato which the Treasury will be called npon to pay is enor- mous, Mr. Wilson pays a just compliment to the patriotism which these meu have mauifested. In onr opinion, he might have extended his tribute by adding that the heroes who have fought bravely to preserve this Government cannot desire to impoverish it, or to distress its finances by asking at this late day for bonuties, Our opinion of the soldiers of the Republic is higher than Mr. Wilson's, who appears at the bar of the Senate as a volunteer advocatein their behall. | Wa totally discredit the existence of a rapacity which | e assumes as the basis of Lis appeal. We refuse to be- lieve that a million of soldiers are clamoring for a couple of hundred dollars apiece, with the knowledge that that paltry sum can only be secured to each individual at the cost to the Nation of not less than Two Huudred Millions of Dollars, We call for the evidence that | years, and perhaps forever.” The logic of this new couspiracy ruus thus: ¢ The States lately in revolt trigd to get out of the Union would conviet these battle-scarred veterans of o vetty stivend like thig, Have they petitioned fogit? How many have petitioned? There are some no doubt; but out of the million of men, how many names are signed to petitions now before Congress? It would bo an absurd exaggeration to supposo that one- tenth of the whole number have signed such petitions. Ouo-tenth of one-tenth would be a liberal estimate. Who, then, presumes to speak for the remaining ninety-nine hundredths—for the nine hundred and ninety thousand who have given noman authority to present them as begzars at the doors of the Capitol? We put the question to each one of them, whether thoy are anxious or are willing that this country should be saddled with an additional debt of 200,000,000 in order that they may reccive £200 apiece. Mr. Wilson says truly that the sums paid to the soldiers were not adequate compensation for the services rendered and the sacrifices endured. The pay of the army, not reckoning bounties at all, was higher than any army in the Listory of the world ever Defore received; yet we agree it was in no sense an adequate compensation, But Mr. Wilson'’s argument bas no pertinency uniess he means to claim that the | compensation will be made adequate Dby the donation of this additional bounty; and to that we cannot agree. It will be an ill addition to the fame of the noblest army the world ever saw to make its soldiers the recipients of a miserable alms such as this bounty bill proposos, and then proclaim that the Republic has completely rewarded its defonders. To cast up a debtor and creditor account between the Government and the people is to degrade both. This fourth bill—we believe it is the fourth which has seen the light—is no whit better than either of its predecessors in respect to its fundamental principles, nor in respect to its details. It is not a bill to * equal- iz6" bounties; and no bill will deserve that title unless 1t takes acconnt of the bounties paid by State and local authorities. So long as the advocates of the bounty schemes refuse to do that, they convict them- solves of false pretenses in the use of tho term equal- ze. They use it because it is o plansible term, pro- fessing to do what it does not; and it is a sure token of the intrinsic weakness of tuis measure that its friends | dare not present it to the pullic by & name which deseribes it fairl —e FIVE MILLIONS MORE, A grave Quaker once, passiug through a bad street, was astonished to see Lis son emerge froma den which no decent person woul! frequeut.

As it is, with a mountain of foreign debt resting on us, we must pay when called upon or be branded bankrupt, We trust, therefore, that no impediment will be offered, by our Government, Banks, or others, to theoutflow of Gold. It goes to those who rightfully own it; and, while we uld gladly preclude the jneurring of any more debt , we are in favor of paying our debts, 000,000 in gold could be shipped within the next month, it would probably save s twice that sum in keeping up the prices of our Cotton, Tobacco, Cheese 1 Let vs get out of debt abroad and and other sta leesp 0 in arg ced, let them draw on us and let us pay to .he extent of our ability, even thongh we only pay But let us run iu debt to E in gold. m: e .

Here was the formula, dear, old, exgloded formnla: **We must bave shirts—we | cannot have shirts without cotton—nobody can enliivate cotton save Blacks. The Blucks will not work except as slaves—the Whites cannot work—the climate is 50 hot they perspire themselves te wh exertion. Erge, lot Slavery be per- s maokind continues to upoin the le tual, or co! wear shirts!" Slavery is gone, but under-garments | nian, Dr. purees of his who tells us ** that as soon as leave the of the great plantations,during the season of cul- u, you find not only white men, but women and children, laboring at all Yours in the fields, without yeeard to the prefended climatic and wiasmatie in- continne, For hiere comes a certain Lot Cottwan, with » pamphlet on the re | Mlucuces which are so crronconsly supposed to bo dgtrimental to White labor.” ** For maoy years,” the Do tor goes on, * the cotton shipped in such large queatities from the Attakapas jon, which is half a dejree nearer the troples than New-Orleans, was the preduct of as hearty, vigorons and prolific a White tace as the world can show.” Why do we republish and draw attention to these facts? Certainly, not because we belicve that the cotton-planters can do without the labor of the Freed- men; for the skill which comes only of a prolonged experlentd never was 8o much noeded as now whent the demand is large, the production small, and the crops will require peculiar and unremitting attention, W2 have no doubt that German and Irish and White A werican laborers can learn in time, and in no very long time, to plant, hoe and pick cotton; but while thero will be work enough for all of all complexions, there will be no such mischievous fallacy in vogue ns that only persons of a certain complexion or race can do u certain kind of necessary work, and that,declining todo euch work, they may be legally and morally compelled to do it, and, with or without wages, are under a fatal necessity of doing it, by decrce of the Almighty and in accordance with the irrepealable laws of the universe. This is Mr. Carlyle's unfortunate notion—for we can hardly call it a theory—which has grieved and disappoiuted all his sincerest admirers, Of course, a system of labor with such a basis must be a degraded aud a degrading one. No labor is respect- able, or can be, which is not voluntary, so far as the laborer’s judgment of its utility and fitness for himself i concerued. Every mon must work; but, in grder ———e e 1| ce no European creditors are | force of bis D S, to wok pleasantly and profitablyy he must be allowcd to select Nis work, and Lo must be paid a fair price for doing it—i. 5., something more than shelter, raiment, diet. It is of 110 use to say that fow men get more than these. Al men ezpect more and hope for more, whether they get it or mot; and it is this whicl physics the toil in which they cheerfully engage. Any labor different from this is precisely like the toil of oxen, horses and mules, with the disadvantage of ahuman turned by wrong, exaction and oppression into a diabolical element, exploding in bloodshed, fire, confusion and insolvency—the fierce anarchy through which, to their sorrow and to their profit, the cotton-growing States have passed. Now the time iy coming when manual labor will be as respectable in South Carolina as in New-England. The artificial degradation of practical production will pacs away; and then the color of the producer will be the last thing which the employer will think of. Then the thaukless business of legislating for classes will become simply impertinent; for, with acknowledged usefulness, will come admitted power, and men without distinction of hue will be able ta take care of their own interests without let or hin- derance of the selfish and unjust: this being just the state of things to promote which we pay the President 25,000 per annum, and Senators, Representatives, and Judges in proportion, In this good time coming, if it shall be discovered that the Black alone can do & certain kind of necessary, and, in fact, indispensable work, so much the better for the Black; for g0 much the greater, by the rule of supply end demaud, will be bLis remuneration. His may be a costly color, Dut it will have to be paid for, and Le will always be | able to bringittoa good market, It will be as if it | should be suddenly discovered that only long-nosed wen could make good watches; in the chronometer warket, long-nosed men would be in demand, and would set their own prices, and get them, too, with- out difficulty. The Lord knows there is work enough to be done in the South for the next fifty years; old lands to be reclaimed, improved, and scientifie agri. cenlture to be set afoot; a shirtless world to be clothed; hoeing, digging, ditching, sub-soiling, fencing, build- ing, stock-raising, and what not. Make labor re- spectable, and there will bo no limit to the wealth | which will be created, and what is better, equally dis- | tributed, or, at least, tolerably so. Our advice to both Southern Whites and Blacks is *‘to go in aud Of course, all Europa is discussing the meaning of the Emperor's speech, The remarkable statement is | made that the famous words which instantaneously | convulsed the money markets of Europe and spread | consternation among all lovers of peace, were not at | all spoken at Auxerre, but deliberately added to the speech whe 1 published in the Moniteur. Many ear- switnesses claim not to have heard the words, and as & i further argument it is adduced that the speech, as re- [ ported in the local paper of Auxerre, does not contain | them, In order to give to the speech, as published in | the Moniteur, the greatest possible publicity, it was ordered to be placarded in all the towns of the Empire. The general construction put upon the speech in | France, Italy, Germany, and Europe in general, was | that it meant immediate war, Oue of the semi-offi- cial papers of the French Government, the Comstitu- tionnel, was, however, instructed to declare that the Emperor merely wished to call the attention of the | signers of the Treaties of 1815 to the necessity of theic reformation; and M. Drouyn de Lbuys, in an almost | apologetical manner, assured the Embassadors of | Russia and England, who called on him for an expla- nation of the singular speech, that it was **a pure the- | oretical discussion” of the necessity to reconstruct the map of Europe. The official papers of Austria are instructed to de- clare that the words of France are by no meaus directed against Austria, and that Austria may yet succeed in satisfying all the demands of France and | Italy, in order then to fall upon unaided Prussia, and punish her in a condingn manner for the aggressive movements during the past month: Dis Cabinet took place last evening in Washington.
