This is probably a continuation of the gold-bearing range which crops out in Wostern Massachusctts. Tho story that the Board of Health had forcibly seized upon & part of Coney Islaud for quarantine purposcs, turns out to have been untrue. An injunction has been obtained against the Board to restrain them from occupy- ing any part of the island fer such a purpose. In the Board of Councilmen yesterday, an order of in- quiry was adopted looking to the establishment of a Free ublic Library, and several street-open projects were considered. The Aldermen trausacted no business of special importance.

Ounr Washington dispatches present a long array of figures and statistics, showing the condition of the public treasury, and the progress of some of the public business during the last month. ‘We print this morning, on another page, a lengthy communication from Wi, A.

We have no news from the Fenians to justify any expectation of success on their part. It does not ap- pear that at this moment any hostile force is on Canada soil, or is in any position to cross the line effectively. | Gen. Sweeney's first move has clearly failed, and failed | in such a way that if be has any second to play, its suceoss is more a matter of chance than of calculation. TAXING NATIONAL BANKS., It has been legally settled tbat the exemption of tional securities from Federal, State or local taxa- tion, does not exempt Bank stocks from such taxation, though the capital of the Bauks may be mainly vested in those securities. In other words: a particular use of those obligations is taxable, though the securities {hemselyes are not. The Government guarantecs the holders against taxation to the extent of a single profit: if they undertake to make a second on the same capital, they must pay their taxes on this use, like other people. We hear with surprise that certain bankers are seeking to have this most righteous and wholesome adjudication subverted by act of Congress. Wedo not fear that they will prevail; but we none the less regret the attempt. Our National Banks, wherever docently managed, have douo well for their stock- holders. We hope they will continue to do so. But we have a very heavy debt to shoulder, and no busi- ness is better able to pay its part than that of Bank- ing. It will have to pay, and it may better do 8o with a good grace. Let there be no wry faces, but a general resolve to meet the requirement heartily, manfully, and pay the taxes. s ARRAIGNMENT OF CONGRESS. We receive in exchange about one thousand jour- nals that supported Lincoln and Johnson in the Pres- | jdential canvass of 1364, 1If there be twenty of the whole number that side with the President against Congress, we are very widely in error. ‘We cannot now name ten, but suppose there may be so many. That more than nine hundred are in open, hearty accord with Congress, is'a most transparent, incontest- ible fact. ‘We do not imply that they appland ererything said or done by the majority in either House any more than we do. They are conducted by men who read, ob- serve, think, and maintain their own independence. Alwost any one of them has at times criticised, sug- gested, admonished, encouraged, approved, dissented, as became thinking freemen. But that the great mass of them are in substautial accord with Congress, and in no hurry whatever to seo seventy or cighty seats in Congress filled by ex-Rebels or their nominees, until the right of the loyal Blacks to **life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness,” shall bave been fully secured, is no matter of opinion, but a simple fact. Yet The N. Y. Times day by day bristles with tirades against Congress as if the leading ideas and meas- ures of the two Houses touching Reconstruction wero utterly repudiated and condemnmed by the great mass of the Unionists of 1864! Its last elaborate arraignment of those ideas and measures closes as follows: | “These suggestions apply ovly to the action of Congress. We intend by them only to indicate a method hy which the Union party in Congress can, if it desires, avoid n{ farther controversy with the President. panion in they b already come in cooflict with bis views and couyictions qus a8 often as is for their good—and nine-tenths of the contro- versy thus provoked has been utterly needises. They have been betrayed into it by o o, reckless guidan of those in whom the their faith sidered the duty of those introsted with the leadorship of & freat party to harmonize ita differences of opinion—to smooth over and nccommodate its collisions and conflicts of sentiment, instead of exasperatiog and fanuing thew ioto an open flame. Aud particularly when that party was in possession of the Government, when it bad the execative aa well as the legislative departments under ita contrel. snd was responaible to the nation for the conduct of prblie affairs, were those intrusted with its leadership expected to promote sarmony awong all its members, aud iy 10 secure con- cort of nction between ita vario b But. by some malign mischance, the men now the official leaderskip rty 1n Congress, reutly sought any- yihiug else’ ex y among its mem- d unity between its execative aud legisiative depart- They have been the exponents and edampions of a fac- tion, instead of the representatives and organs of the party, They bave thought far more of forcing thelr own erude and fa tastlo fancles upon reluctast and recalcitraut allies, than to give to all scctions of the party duo weight and influence in adopt ing measures intended for the cowmon good, and tuvoiviog all in'one common fate. And they bave used ufl the stratagoms of Parliamentory law—ali the resouroes of Congresaional rul sud regulations—all the force and fear of party discipline—all the elements of personal prejudi partinan resentime ot to barmonise and consolidate the legitimate sentiment of the party, but to coerce assent. override and overawe ail doubt and dissent among their own followers, and to establish their own status aa the rulers or the destroyers of the party on whose behalf they professed and were iu bonor bound to sct, 1t will be a noveliy, not to say o miracle, in the chronicles of politics, if the Union party sbould aurvive such reckless aud desperate maui palatien.” —These imputations devolve on the rauk and file of the Union party a duty which they neither can with honor nor will choose to evade. Within a few wecks, pominations for Representatives in the XLth Congress will be made in most of the loyal States, Whether the Unionists approve or disapprove the general action of their Representatives, it becomes them then dis- tinetly to say. If they judge the President right and Congress wrong in the main with reference to their points of difference, they will distinctly say so; if, on the other hand, they are in general accord with Congress, they will let the fact be known. Of course, 1t will not always (though we think it will generally) be advisable to nominate the present Members for reélection. Since the action of Congress will be generally assailed by the Copperheads in the Fall canvass, it will bo desirable to have candidates on ourside who thoroughly understand that action and are prepared to defend it. But, even where it shall be thought best to nominate new men, we urge that the light wherein the action of Congress is regarded by 4he constituencies shall be distinctly made manifest. ment THE QUARANTINE QUESTION. Another twenty-four hours is gone, and we caunot learn that much Las been done toward the relief of the cholera-prisoners in the bay, or toward the se- curity of the city. Our reports will show in what condition the sick and well on the Falecon and Peru- vian continue. We scarcely know which is the worse off. The Faleon, which is called a hospital ship, is a floating bell to which are consigned from time to time the doomed and helpless wretches who came passengers on the Peruvian aud the Union. Cholera patients and small-pox patients are crowded together between the close decks of a rotten ship, till the diseases intermingle in the same body, and what one might have spared the two con- sume, It is a horrible torture and almost certain murder to send thither a man ill with the early symp- toms of a curable disease. It is not much better to leave him on what they call—with a dreadfnl mock: ery—the well ship; a ship impreguated with cholera- poison, and crowded with passengers who must be prodigies of courage if they de not die from fear—the surest predisposing cause of cholera. The Health authorities know, better than we can describe, what these iunocent men and women are made to suffer; yet they still hesitate to act. They have had an uninterrupted meonth in which to estal- lish a suitable quarantine, aud they have done exactly nothing. There was time to discuss whether mineral waters should be eold in the Central Park, but no time to select a site for quarantine, seize it, put build- ings up, guard them, and defy the pestilence. Wo wero assured yesterday morning that the Board of Health had resolved to take pos. session of Coney Island, but an evening peper, appardntly on Mr. Bchultz's anthority, denles it, and says no such proposition has ever been con. sidered. With a coolness that; in such circumstanees, is appalling, the President of the Board of Health gives out that *‘in a few days” they will do some- thing. No, we are wrong. They don't propose to do anything, but in & few days they will ** agres upon UESDAY, JUNE 5. 180 aplan.” A plan for what? Why, s plan to ob- tain grounds mpon which to ereot buildings for the wuse- of well persons who may arrive upon vessels infected by cholera or other con- tagious discases!” In the illimitable future, this auto- cratic Board of Health hope to do something for pros- pective cargoes of cholera, but for the relief of the mass of misery down the bay, and for the immediate protection of the city, they have not evena plan to propose, nor does anybody seem inclined to step for- ward and supply the deficiency. ‘We beg leavo to assure Mr. Schultz that the public is waiting with impatience to see him do_that * rash thing" which he promised on Friday. We assure him in all seriousness that public opinion will not merely tolerate, but demands, a total disregard of formalities and statutes, if that be necessary to save us from the horrors of the lower bay and from the impending danger on land. The Legislature meant to put des- potic powers into the hands of the Board of Health, to the end that prompt pre- cautions and energotic measures against public peril might be taken. If the Legislature failed to make its law strong enough—of which we have no evidence —the intent of the law still remains, and public opinion remains, and the peril is bere, and nobody cares for the statute, but evergbody looks to the Board for some action that will justify its existenco. There has been none yet—speaking with reference to the cholera. Yet Mr. Schultz said on Friday, and said justly, that if he did not succeed within the next four or five days, all his work would be useless. No doubt it will, and of these four or fivo days, three have already passed; yot now, Mr. Schultz tells a newspaper roporter that, in a fow days more, he hopes & plan will be agroed on. Wo have every respect for Mr. Schnltz's good intentions, but we call this trifling with a momentous and an immi- nent peril. —Since the above was written, we have received in- telligence which leads us to suppose that the Board is on the point of doing something. How much it will do we cannot say, but we presume it cannot attempt less than to occupy a quarantine station spmewhere on shore. Still, wo let what wé have written stand as the partial exprossion of a public impatience that approaches exasperation and as a spur to the resolutions of the Board. We shall be very glad to announce to-morrow that New-York has at least a site for Quarantine. Then, if the Board will instantly put the cholera patients on shore, both sick and well, burn up their horrible old hulk, the Falcon, and in future protect their ground by a force strong enough to defy assault, we hope there may be a chance of repairing the disasters and disgrace of their past inexcusable delay. LDING OF THE ACADEMY OF MUSIC. It should hardly be necessary to suggest to the gentlemen whohave charge of rebuilding the Academy of Music, that it is imperatively necessary to make it securely fire-proof. In a building exclusively devoted to one purpose, free from conflicting possibilities of danger, with smple means devoted to its erection, a BU | Winter has set In in ths Southern hemisphere, and perfect exemption from fire can be bad beyond any | poradventure. Wedo not propose to dictate any special plan; the means must necessarily conform to the de- sign; but we desire to impress upon the minds of the Directors that they are about to erect a house and shouse; that the goods to be stored there an beings and not bales of cotton, and that a great responsibility rests upon the results of their labora. We are of opinion that private individuals have too much license inerecting places of public amusement; using their own judgment, and shaping that according to the interests of their pockets, regardless of the ter- rible consequences which might result from such a pol- icy. In France, the erecting of & building such as the Academy of Music should be, is a matter of official supervision. Plans are received up to a certain date, and thoroughly examined. They are then placed in tle Institute for & month, where they reccive the soverest serutiny from experts on all which relates to the subject, whose objections and suggestions are poted, and through this public criticism all the good points are evolved, tho weak points exposed, and the judges guided to a right decision. Some snch system should be adopted here. The competition should be open, and the plans, when re- ceived, should be deposited in the rooms of the Amer- ican Institute, where they could be inspected by practical men, the value of whose opinions would be beyoud dispute.

THE LION IN THE WAY. The Old Deminion, Norfolk, Va., thus responds to our suggestion that the Southern Whites, should place themselves on a footing of mutual confidence and good will with the Blacks, and thus render the interference of third parties not merely necdless but futile: “To the question why the Southern people won't step iu be- tween 1 Northern White misstonaries’ and the Blacks, wo ive this answer: You have put your missionaries iu the posi- tlon which rightfully belongs to our people. Y from the * Freedmen's Burean.” Youuphold the * Bureau Dbayonets, and after teaching the Blacks for two years that the Southern Whites are their one (lm tell us thiat we * should educate them,’ that we *can b{ slmple fuith and good will,’ take the Blacks out of the hands of your ‘ missiouaries.” Now, this i _all very d talk, if addressed to the people of Japan; but it r logic to throw in the faces of the - ple of the South. The fact s, we only could, but would do il these things, if you would let us. You stand betwoen us with a political machine, called the ‘Freodmen's Durean,’ at an expense of $12,000,000 per Annum, and bave surrounded this wachine with a guard of soldiers to keep us away from the Blacks, and them away from us, and now bave the impu- mplo Whites sud th no power interveniug but their own wants and necessitie “Now, If you are an honest humanitarian, call off your rllflc&l dogs 'of war, and show your sympathy for the negro letting bim come up by bis own exortion, and the ready bolp of our people, unti there is none to dispute their ability, 11 a8 right, to the ballot. This is all we ask. We claim ime alone ean settle this much mooted question as it should be. efully, and beueticial, alike to the Blacks, as woll as ** Whites.” Remarks by The Tribune. A report has just been made by the Secretary of State to Congress, in response to an inquiry, giving an account of the constitutional provisions and laws | enacted by the Southern Whites for the oppression and degradation of the Blacks within the last year. We gave & synopsis of that report ou May 31. Now it is possible that laws as unjust, inbuman, degrading, brutalizing, have at some time been enacted in Dahomey orTartary; but we are very sure that no Christian people outside of our Union ever enacted anything half so infornal. Will you contend that these were either prompted or rendered necessary by the Freedmen's Bareau? That Bureau is to-day preserving from starvation tens of thousands of Southern Whites, especially in | Alabama. We are confident that many more Whites than Blacks are now subsisted by it. Yet we admit that it is an anomaly whicb should be abolished at the earliest moment consistent with the dictates of justice | and humanity. We propose, therefore, a basis of agreement with The Old Dominion, 1If that journal will induce the South to make her laws as just and equal as between Whites and Blacks as are those of Great Britain, France, Prussia, Italy and Mexico, or | any other Christian conutry wherein all men are free, we will urge that the Freedmen's Bureau shall thcrcnyun Le abolished, utterly and forever. Is not this fair? We want the country Setilcd agd at peage forth- with, We want an adjustment that will include all, provide for all, and secure the rights of all. A settle- ment which excludes and ignores either the Whites or the Blacks of the South will neither suflice nor endure. And all we ask of the Southern Whites is, | that they shall treat thoe Blacks as humanelv. justly, [ trustfully, as they are treated by the most enlight- ened nations of Europe. Why should they not? If you thiuk the Freedmen's Bureau, or ** Northern White missionaries,” or any others, a barrier between you and the Blacks, you are mistaken. The only barrier that separates you is one formed of unjust, oppressive laws, which you Wkites alone made, and which you are at perfect liberty to repeal. Take that away, and you will find all the others of no possible account Why is it that persons who would hesitate to be oaught lying separately will get together and *‘re- solve” the most atrocious falsehood without a blush ora twinge? Sundry Germans residing in our City gathered yes- terday at Union Square to attest and proclaim their opposition to our new Excise Law, as it was their per- foct right to do. In so far as they spoke truth, they are entitled to respectful consideration. But the managers knew right well, though their ignorant dupes did not, that the prohibition of Sunday liquor-selling was always & part of the common law of this State, as of her neighbors adjacent-—that the new Excise Act simply makes better provision for the enforcement of what has been the law here for gen- erations. When, therefore, they resolve that *‘the present Excise and Sunday law is the abortive and unnatural product of sectional fanaticism,” &e., &c., they lie and deceive their ignorant followers, and so deserve the most indignant rebuke. That they should go on to make other reckless and Daseless asser- tions is natural; and when they tell us that our laws | aro “‘in direct conflict with the spirit underlying the foundations of our free republican institutions,” | they compel us to remind them that the much abused « Puritans” of this country founded a republic which the Liberals of the O1d World have not yet surpassed, and under whose mgis many millions of them have been glad to find shelter. It was in Europe, not here, that the term Libertine—once signifying a champion of Liberty—became tainted and mildewed—these gentlemen help us to understand how and why. It may not be modest, but it is quite in order, for Germans to lecture Americans on the nature and spirit of our free institutions, and strive to show us how they should be recast in accordance with the higher | intelligence and nobler civilization of the heroes of | 18489, Let them give us their lessous; we will heed and endeavor to profit by them. But when they at- | tempt to face us down in a transparent lie—to brazen | it out that Sunday liquor-selling has hitherto Leen | legal here, and that to prohibit it is an ionovation— they pass the bounds of controversial decency and ex- pose themselves to goneral contempt. END OF THE SPANISH-CHILJAN WAR. The Courrier des Etats Unis, of this city, which is | & usually well informed on the intentions of the French and Spanish Governments, states that Admiral Nuiiez, the commander of the Spanish fleet in the Pacific, has recoived from the Government of Madrid the order to leave, for the present, the waters of Peru and of Chili. “ It is known,” says the Cowrrier, **that since a montly Spain has acted wisely in not exposing its fleet to the storms which, during this season, desolate the Southern consts of the Pacific. One portion of the squadron will take its Winter quarters at the Philippine Islands, and the other at Montevideo, or Rio Janeiro. Ou the return of the Summer season, the Spanish fleet, reén- forced by the iron-clad Tetuan and other vessels, will square up the accounts of the Spanish Government with Chili, Peru, aud Ecuador, unless in the mean- while the friendly services of foreign powers should Dring about.an arrangement.” Thus, it seems, the Spanish-Chilian war is, for the present, at an end, so far a3 the aggressions of Spain are concerned. As to its renewal, on the return of the Summer season, it is anything but probable. A ' fow days ago we called attention to the progress of the fortifications of the important South American sea- ports. So far as the four allied republics are con- cerned, Spain will hereafter meet, instead of defense- less Valparaisos, well-fortified Callaos; and the time will soon arrive when the allied republics of Latin- American will be able to oppose to European aggres- sions an impenctrable front, It is, moreover, highly probable that the increase of the navy of the South | American allies will be more rapid than that of Spaiu. If this be the case, the *friendly services of foreigu powers” may be eagerly welcomed by Spain. —_— Upon the guestion of removal from office and Ex- ecutive power gencrally, we bave this from The Intel- ligencer, which, we presume, speaks for President Johnson: “It seoms vory evident that the President should bave the power of romoval, where there is corruption of inefliciency in office; and there could be no objection to the great mass o} -j)- cers having a fized_term, from which they should not be removed, uch/nr Zause.
