The more cvidence we accumulate, the more wo are cousinced of the justice of the judgment that the President inust be held directly responsible for all that bas boen done in New-Orleans. Ho on- .gendered the spirit which broke forth in riot, mur- derad loyalists, - and finally raised tho Confederate flag. “ About 40 persons have been killed, and & large number wounded, nearly all béing friendly to tho Convention' This is the result of the Prosi- dent’s policy in Lonisiana, and we regard it 08 & fitting sequel to the result of that policy in Tonnessee, where the military authorities are prevented from punishing the authors of the massacre in Memphis. Memphis, unavenged and unpunishod, is fitly followed by New-Orleans. The President began his work of interferonce July 21, when he asked Gov. Wells to inform him under and by what authority the Convention had been callod, and also under what authority it assumed to represent the Stato of Louisiana. This was before the massacre. Gov. Wolls was Governor- of Louisiana, and, according to the President’s frequently-proclaimed theories, as muoh A sovereign in his way as the President him- self. The menace to Gov. Wells was as much a usur- pation as though the President were to address a lettor 1o Gov. Fenton to know under and by what authorily ho summoned the State Legislature. Gov, Wells disobeyed the President and issued his proclamation for oloctions to bo held to choose delegates to the Couvention to fill vacancies—all that he conld do by the lotter of the law. Thereupon, July 23. the Attorney-General and the Licutenant-Governor— unwilling to obey the law or to permit the mat- tor to go to the courts to test its constitution- ality—ogain telegraphed the Prosident, stating that & riot was feared; that the Gov- emor was guilty of the horrible crime of “ boing in leagne with the Republicans;” that it was intendod to indict the members by grand jury, and asking whetber the President would interfere with the indictment. To which, July 28, the Presi- dent replied that ** the military will bo expected to sustain and not obstruct or interfere with the pro- ceedings of the courts.” In other words, ** Go aliead, gentlemen; indicl or what you ploase; no wol- diers sball molast you." This was on Saturday. Mayor Mouroe proclaimed his purposs to suppress the Couvontion. He summoned policemen—policomen, e it known, who wers selected for their valor is Rebelarmios. Thia police force and tho mob acted together with bloody harmony, and did the work of suppression thoroughly. When the Couvention assembled the President issued his ordor to Mr. Herron, n member of Gov. Wella's Cabinet. In the first place, that order deposed Gov. Wells for not obeying the President. In the sacond place, it placed Gen. Bheridan under the con- trol of a State officer. In the third place, its language was not that of & calm executise officer, perform- ing o solemn ministorial duty, but of a violent, sngry man, speaking to angry people. ** Usurpation will not be tolerated !"—* the peopls must be first consulted™ —all *illegal or unlawful assemblies” must be sup- pressed ! Let it be remembered that theso words were written to o community of Rebels, to men who were scothing with abger and hatred. and who cherished no more darling idea than being permitted to gain, in the streets of New-Orleans, that revenge which the valor of Sherman and Sheridan prevented them from gaining in the field. They were in a safe majority. They were armed. They were commanded by the Major and sustained Ly the Presdent of the United States. The negroes and loyalsts were unarmed, and the soldiers of the nation vere compelled to ground their muskets and look ot at the massacre. The work of massacre was easy ndeeds It is impossible to resist the logie of this whole pro- ceeding. It was commenced Juy 2, by menacing Gov. Wells, & Governor of s “scvereign State; ™ it was continued by deposing him and, to make the work surer, by placing the arny at the control of & Rebel officer. 1f the Presidens bad sent a manly dispatch to General Baird—t« preserve peace at all bazards and protect every loyal man, leaviog the Convention to be dealt with)y the Courts and the people to do what was best vhen peace came, but stillfto make peace—the countr would bave febt that the affair was merely a riot, andsnppressed as all riots should be. But when the coutry sees in New-Or- Jeans what was seen in Memphisind Alexandria, direct personal sympathy between thePresident and rioters, can it release the President ‘om a most fearful re- sponsibility 1 Do we not see tis man—while clamor- ing against usurpation—perfoning himgelf the very highest usurpation when it nits his purpose. He deprecates interfering with tates and removes & State Governor. He desires :construction, and yet when Tennessee wished to cow into the Unjon by the ouly open door, he stood . her way. We very much fear that all these irotestations of re- spect for principle and dere for peace and willingness to trust the peple are the mere words of & politician—whout sincerity and spoken to deceive. Just as whe Le called himself the Moses of the negro, and declard treason was odious, and gave interviews to Radicalake Kelly and Stearns, which made them trust bim, hespoke s a politician for purposes of deception. I» ucts are the only speeches we want. They how a stern, unjust Andrew Johneon esires to reconstruct purpose, this Union in his own ray—and to do it in #pite of every oppotion, He mgans that if in bis power the Soutlshall sgain rule the councils of this country. He cinot return the negro to Slavery, but it is his will thathe negro shall never leave it. And to do this he oes to bis work with coarse, unserupulous energy—wh a conrage and per- sistency which we respected 1en he assailed the country's enemics, but which e now the sources of pational grief and humiliation. . A strange decision bas just be rendered in North Caroling. Chief-Justice Ruffin 15 declared against the proposed new Constitution cthe State and the late State Convention. The Ch-Justice says: T consider that this is no constitut, because your Con. vention was pot a legitimate Conventy and had no power to make & conatitution for us, OF 1o alter it which we Aed and Jave, 1 object to the organization of yr Convention because it was called without the consent of 3 people, by tho Presl. dent of the United States, or under hirders—an act of clear and despotic wsnrpation. 80 the Prosident is stabbed friends. the house of his P Gen.

Tho legitimale ro- sult of one decision adverso te Civil Rights may bo soon in the accounts of the riot, THE RIOT IN' LONDON AND THE DEEBY PINISTHY, Tho accession of the Tories to power bas boen sig- nalized by A monstrous blunder on the part of the Government in the prohibiting of & Reform moeting arranged to be hield in Fydo Park, London. It will be remembered that immediate’y after the defeat of the Russell-Gladstone Ministry, and before Lord Derby had succeeded in copstructing an admin- istration, & popular domonstration in favor of Reform took place in London. This, which was purely an impromptu offair, arising out of the unexpocted defeat of the Liberal Government, although imposing in its ebaragter, camo too late to provent the reins of power from passing into the Lands of tho Tories, But the victory of the enemies of Reform did not dishearton the people. It had the effect rather of convinoing them of the neesssity for united, vigorous and persevering effort on’ their part iu ordor to obtain justice. o it was arranged that another mammoth . meeting should bo: beld in London, Hyde Park boing selected for (ho purpose. This meoting was to be fol- Jowed by others of e similar character in different parts ofEngland. The key-note was to be struck in London; the provinces would respond. In this movement the new Government saw danger to their party, and thay accordingly determined to strike a blow which might opérate s an intimidation. By the autbority of the Beoretary the meeting was accordingly probibitefl, on the two-fold ground that the holding of it wonld be inconsistent with the purpose for which the Park was thrown open to tho public, and that sueh @ gathering was calculated to lead to riotous and disorderly conduct, and to endanger the public pesce. The sequel is known. The people, undismayed by the Government ukase, assembled at the appointed place, and finding the Park gatos locked, tore down the iron railings and forcod an entrance. The military were called out, but fortunately no blood was shed, although the as- somblage was disparsed. Tho Reformers were not, however, to be turued from their purpose, for on Mouday last, we learn through the Atlantic eable, & mammoth meoting was beld in London, at which resolutions were passed declaring that the peoplo have no faith in the presens Ministry. Through the samo source we are informed that the conduct of the Derby Government in {this matter has imperiled its ex- istence. Nothing could be more unwise than this inter- feronce of the Government with the constitutional righta of the peopls; nor could anything be more un- tenablo than Lo ground upon which the refusal to allow the meeting to be held in Hyde Park was based. The Park, it was contonded, i3 the property of the crown, aud intonded, under the permission of the Sovercign, ‘or the enjoyment and recreation of the inhabitants of the metropolis, and for that alone. This smacks of tho political dogmes of the days of the Stuarts. It is setling up for the crown an intercst distinct from and antago- uistic to the interssts of the people, as determined by the people themselyos, and if carried out to its legiti- mato issues suck a doctrine would be certain to pro- voke & sericas collision between tho crown and the peoplo. After such a declaration from the Govern- ment, we are not surprised to learn that the Derby Ministry is in poril. And yet better things than we have here could hardly be expected from a Tory Cabinet. The Tories may make professions of liberality to suit the purposes of & temporary expediency, but at heart they are wedded to reactionary principles and evemies of po- litieal freedom. Bred in the school of a narrow and selfish oligarchy, and inberiting traditions which sanctify the claims of s caste to the controlling power and the prineipsl hounors and emoluments of the State, they bave mno confidence in popular government, no genuine respect for popular rights. But their efforts to arrest the progress of Re- form in England will prove abortive, and will only basten the consummation at which the friends of progress are aiming. These efforts are the old story of attempting to push back the swelling waves of the Atlantic with & mop. Al in vain, These Tories must either abandon their impossible task or they will be swopt away by the advancing tide. The world is moving onward, The star of Liberty is in the aa- cendant, GRRMANY IN TRANSITION, The first satisfactory information concerning the end of the war in Germany and the solution of the German unity question, which has resched this con- tinent, is contained in the special London dispatch to Tug TriBuNe, which appeared in our issue of yes- terday. ** Prussia carries all ber points. The Liberals support Bismark's foreign policy.” Brief as this trans- Atlantic message must, of course, be, it affords us all the light we need for understanding the main points of the question, Though the agreement arrived at between Austria and Prussia was not a formal treaty of peace, but only an armistice for several weeks, it included an express agreement concerning the basis of peace. Prussia would not have acceded to the armistice unless Aus- tria had conceded ber chicf demands. It is, therefore, certain that Austria bas consented to withdraw from the old Confederation, to regard it as dissolved, and to lay no claim to admission into the new Germany which the Government of Prussia has undertaken to | establish. What the precise relations of the minor States to Prussia in this Confederation will be on the start has not yet been fully determined upon, but its essential difference from the old Confederation is al- | ready fully determined. The old Confederation was an insurmountable bar- | rier to the coneolidation of the several States into a united Germany. Actually, each of 30 and odd States “of which the Confederation was composed Was sov- erign. The only common bond of the States, the | Foderal Diet, consisted only of the plenipotentiary ministers of the several Governments, The idea of a German people was entirely unknown to the Cousti- | tution, which only knew of the people of Austria, Prussia, Bavaria, and other States. Every effort to | unite these peoples into one German natios, With a | common representation near the Diet, was prosecuted by the united Government with the utmost vigor. Austria, in particular, clearly saw that the progress of German unity would be the death-blow to Austrian unity; for how could an empire which connted only 7,500,000 Germans, by the side of 15,000,000 Sclavi, of 5,500,000 Italians and Ronmaniang, and 5, of Magyars, ever become & homogeneous empire’ | Thus Germany, to the intense grief of all its patriotic citizens, and to the great delight of more than one jealous neighbor, became and remained a merely geo- graphical abstraction, hated at home aud ridiculed abrond. The new Confederation starts with very diflerent prospects, Pruseia, which will be the nucleus of it, is & purely German State. Among its 19,304,843 | inhabitants, there are only 2,504,179 speaking a nou- German language, aud even among these more than 500,000 represent the remainder of small tribes which have no longer the least vitality, and are rapidly be- coming absorbed into the German element. Evenin the Province of Posen, which has the largest non- Goerman population of any of the Prussian Provinces, the number of Germans has of late begna to outnum- Dor that of the Poles, and thus the time seems rapidly to approach when even this Province will be predomi- nautly German, All the minor States are exclusively aad the union of thep with Prugsia wilt. 000,000 | therefore, not rouse tho joalousy or the any forcign nationality. Prusaia has oxprossly recognizod the principle that tho uew Confoderation is not to be merely an allisace of the governments, but that it is to embrace represen- tation of the German people. ILhas even made the concession to have the National German Parliament clectod by universal suffzage. This gives st once to 'the National party a center for their liberal efforts such as they never had before. Whatever the short- comings of the Executive may be, the representatives of the people can henceforth meet and coucert meas- ures for the completion of the unity of all German dis- triets, and for the farther development of tho liberal institutions of the country. The second partof the London dispatch of Tam TrIBUNK informs us that *the Liberals support Bis- mark's foreign policy.” This we suppose indicates that the Conference which Bismark had arranged with the leaders of the Liberal party in Germany has been at loast partly a success. It is in the interest of both Bismark and of the Liberal party that the marks of the former sovereignty of the smaller States be obliter- ated as much as possible. In the eyes of Bismark this is the complete suocess of the Prussian Government; in the eyes of the Liberal National party it is an im- portant step toward establishing the sovereignty of the German nation ever the partioular States. The latest accounts from Germany leave no doubt that in every’ German State, with perbaps the exeep- tion of Bayaria and the diminative principality of Lichtenstoun, which is enterely inclosed by Austrian territory, a large majority will desire to form part of the new Confederation and to send delegates to thonew Paliament. This would give a nation of about 36,- 000,000, A strong party in Bavaria—if Bavaria should koep aloof—and in the German provinoes of Austria, will at once expréss their desire to be united with their Dbrethren in the consolidated Germany; and thus we shall bave a repetition of the Venetian question upon German soil, with this difference, however, that the 35,000,000 of Germany will find it easier to accomplish their complete union than it was for tho Italians. The entire press of Europe agrees with Louis Napo- leon in regarding the inchoate establishment of a united Gormany as turning point in the history of FEurope. The new State will soon exceed France in population, aud the history of the campaign in Bobe- mia has even convinoed the French that tho power of the new State will not be in an inferior proportion to their population. SHALYL THE GOVERNMENT PROTECT REBEL MASSACRES? ‘With hideous fidelity the Copperhead papers refloct in their editorial opinious the spirit of the New-Or- loans riot, Not one has dared to say a single word against the rioters who attacked the Convention and indiseriminately murdered whites and blacks. Their censure is for the viotims, and those who suffered doath for their principles are denounced as revolu- tionists and tyrants, There is in this apathy to aught that is heroic, this utter indifference to truth, some- ‘thing miore appalting than the riots, The Daily News, from which nothing better than silance could be expected, has not even that negative modesty, but ridicules the murdered Dostie as “‘a leech and a barber.” The grave is no protection from the ghoul, The Herald accuses the Radicals of at- tempting to exoite civil war, and threatens them with banging to the lamp-posts. The World praises the blacks for their fidelity to the Re- bellion, with shallow hypocrisy mourns over their murder, eod blames it upon Northern Radicals. With a sublime contempt of truth it ao- cuses the members of the Convention with assailing the * orderly administration of law with revolution- ary aod eruel violence.” The Express seems to bo ashamed to calumniate the martyrs, especially as it quotes The Times's special dispatch as the best ac- count of the riots, The Times, which can no longer Dbe considered a Union papee, bas thrown the whole blame of the murders upon the murdered men. There isnot oneof these papers which has honesty enough even to rebuke in the mildest way the Rebels who committed these atrocities. Not one of them notices the fact that the Convention and the Freedmen were attacked by men who carried the Rebel flag; they unite in attributing to the Union men and the Freed- men the responsibility of the crimes by which they suffored. But we stand by the facts, They show on whichside brute force was trinmpbant. They tell the'sickening story too plainly for any falsehood to deceive the pub- lie. What prominent Rebel was killed, but how many Usion members of the Convention were butchered ! Very few of the Rebel policemen were hurt, but forty loyalists were killed and a large number wounded. The *“Radicals” in New-Orleans were too weak to even dream of beginning a fight; it is mean morality, and meaner soplistry, to accuse the 26 members of the Convention, and the procession of 100 negroes, of having plotted a rovolution. The attack was begun by the police under order of Mayor Monroe, a no- torious Rebel, and in the meanwhile the freed- men were given over to the mercies of | & mob of Rebels. By order of the President, the mili- tary were forbidden to protect the Convention, and SHERIDAN, the hero of the Shenandoab, was formally made—against his will, we hope and pray—the accom- plice of » gang of murderers. Unfortunately for him, he was absent from the city, or be might bave won new houors by returning his sword to the Govern- ment ratber than consent to stain it with the blood of Joyal men. Let the nation judge by the facts. They prove that this was almost & St. Bartholomew massacre; that it was intended to begin a Reign of Terror in the South; that {ull notice has been given that bereafter every loyal Convention that dares to meet in the South is to be broken up by fire and sword, GERMAN SEFTLEMENT IN TEXAS, Soon after the close of the war between the United States and Mexico, & colony of German immigrants settled in Middle Texas. The originators of the en- | terprise believed that white labor was both possible and practicable in the latitude of the Gulf States, ! and upon that theory conducted the experiment. | Each settler owned and worked the soil, in small lots, as is the cnstom in Europe and the Northern States. The ploneers succeeded so well fhat other colonies were induced to follow and settle in the same neigh- borhood. The experiment established tbat cotton could be successfnlly cultivated on small farms, owned and worked by white men, and that the cli- mate is not inimical to the growth aad development of an industri laboring population. In the midat of this ment, there has been bailt, on Guadaloupe Riy thriving, wealthy inlang city of over 2,000 inhubitants, The NewsBraunfels Zeitung reports the industry of the city asfollows: “ In trades, oceupations and profossions New-Lrmunfels bas eight carpeuters, nine wheelwrights, eight joiners, two coop ors, ive saddle-tree and stirrup-mesers, Lwe turners, ode wooden bowl 1aaker, elght blacksmiths, iwo gunsmiths, one tinner. one founder, seVen 1ASOLS, € gLt Lanners, soven shee- wddiers, one collar-maker, foms talors, seven. barber, one coachman, 32 retail and wh i d one rour des jer, * There are also three cotton-gine, oue eiton factory, with 21 loome, oue grist miL two four mils, one window maker, ove wool-cardiug maehine, one brewery, ove,distillery, two brick and lime-kilns, ove printing office, two ‘apothecary stores, one cosch-maker, one Louse-painter and vainisher, ono peddier, three physicians, three wusio teaches, two lawyers, three preacliers, 1oar churches, one public * chool, with five teachers, three private schools ":fnm by Iadie s, one postoftice, one tele: graph office,'tbree dancing halls, auo theater, thiee billiard saloons, and one ten-pin alley. **The population is abous 2.000 souls, This is dolog pretty well for an inland oity of Texas,” I: is not the custom of this journal to make enter- prise in vaunting outdo enterprise itself, but we take, credit for having printed yesterday the first authentic telogram specially transmitted from London by the Atlantic Onble to any journal on this side of the waler.

T_Mt the mania for injunction-making promises & decided abatement is one of the best sanilary signy’ upon Which we have to congmtalate the public. While maay of onr judges ace yielding to s vulgar sud criminal popularity by submitting to the dictation of the lowest class aud the worst passions in the com- mumt_y—'hun thase judges are probably still resdy to rosist ovory attempt made by the Board of Health to defend the city's life—it is a great relief to find that a jurist as intrepid and able as Judge Barnard. comes forward to rescue the dignity of the Lenoh aud belp the city's hoalth by saving its pocket. He has enjoined the ‘‘sappers and miners” of the Common Counoil not to cousammate the hideous fn- iquity of swindling our oppressed tax-payers out of about ten millions of dollars. Less could not be ex. pected of a docent Judge—bnt Judge Barnard has done bis duty promptly aad boldly. He has not stopped to covault the debauched oraales of ** Riag® politids; nor bas he lost sight of the city's whatever his disguise or pesition, Judge is among the fow Judges upon the hench in this eity who has, when , the needed coursge lo take the band of local robbers by the throat and force them to theif knees, Only a few weeks ago the Board of Supervisors, who had sbirked their sworn duty for months, were startled by a mandamns from the Sripreme Court, and those who had grown gross and arrogant on the New Court-Honse swindie wéro for once frightenad inte sobriety. Again Judge Bar- nard has become the protector of the city from its Yicensed and established robbers; and, should his whole work in the affair be as good as his first aet, men of every party will hav: caase to appland him. T cmma—— John Ross, or Kooweskoowe, Chief of the Cherokoa Indinos, died in Washington yesterday. He was & hail-byosd? ad at an oacly ago acquired a .good Eaglish gducation.

The proceodings of the Georgia Legislature with reforones to the Cherokoos, im 1329, led to an appeal on the part of the Indiane, Ross acting as their agent, to the Supremo Court of the United States, which resulied ina deoision in thoir favor. Georgia, howevor, refused to obey, and aggreasions upon the Indians increased. In 1835 a treaty was concluded betwoen J. F.

Musical. OPENING OF THE NEW ORGAN AT PLYMOUTH CHOUROH. The official opening of tas largs organ built by the ‘Hooks of Boston for Plymouth Church, took place on Tuosdsy evening. The chrroh was orowded ioevery park as might bave besn oxpected, ay beside the congregation who wers naturally aaxious to bear ther orsan displayed by master hands, & large nomber of iavitations were issaed to outmde parties. The desiio that t o rervices of Mr. George W. Mor- gan should be securel was so geerally expressad, that Mr Beeober yielded to tle pressure, and e1gaged him at his owa expense for the oocasion. The other perlormers were Mr. J. Wilcox and Mr. Maulier, tho orzaais® of the churoh. Ia our previous notice we atatad that * the fonndation of the organ was not of sufficient, stre 14th (0 sustaia tbe brillian suporstructurs,” but we did not press this point, because the style of Mr. Wilcox is esseutially brillisnt, and wo thought that the latent streugth, il say, migit yet be developed by other organists of & di Terens sohool. Such was Bot the oase. On the contrary, the more dranatic aad powerfally contrasted the playing, the more evident it beca e that our first jedg- ment was correct. When we read the robeme we were half satisfied that the choral perts of the organ, the Dinpasens and the peda! mannal were insufioieat to balance the super- structure, fanoy stops, &c. The Hooks in their scheme have sacrificed solid graadeur of ower to show and brillisacy. In the brilliant points, as we have said belore, the organ is traly beantifal. The voicing of the solo stops cannot be surpassed; each stop is a separate and distinguishing excellence. But this alooe doos not make & great organ. Brilliancy will do well encugh for mere solo exbibition, but for the true aod solid in art. and for the just support of & large choir more weight s ated in the middie and lower portions of the orgaa. More dispason power is wanted in the great organ, sad at least three or four more powerful stops in the pedals. Tbo 32-feet pipe, which shoald tell, do not, probably for t @ waat of sutlicient pressure, while the ‘“tuba mirabi is,” & maguificest stop, from over-pressurs speaks o peremptorily that it is impossible to introdwoe it barmoniously or blendingly. as it staads out inmediately sloae. It is ot only bright aud brilliant, but somewhat bletaat. ¢ this were moderatel and the necessary streogth sdded, Hooks' Plymouth Church organ would stand the test of the severest criticlsm, and might cballeage the whole couutry o mateh it. These obaages sad additions which we covsider necessary would cost some money, aad this the builders could not afford, for the work has been so faitbrully and splendidly executed that we doabt if tley bave realized any profit. When we say that the pneumatio action eoss over 33,000, it may well be imagined thet their profit must be very swall, i any. But thoy bave produced aa orgaa which, in pointof perfection of mecnanisw, iz action aad the well coasidered contrivances for the production and the regulation of power, and In the perfect voiclug of the solo stops, ¢ 1unot be excelled bere or eisewhere.
