Mandarin Pintajin, a native envoy from Clina, is expected to arrive at no late day in this country on a friendly tour of observation. Wil he be kicked out of the cars, as another Chinese gentleman, studying in one of our colleges, was the other day, because they thought him a negro ? There was a mean attempt made yesterday in the Board of Councilmen to carry, with the tender of the city's hospitalities to President Johnson, an indorse- ment of bis policy, as servile and wrongful as it was absurd. Councilmen Pullman, Thomas, Roberts and White very properly refused to entertain the Presi- dent’s person and policy at the same time. The call for the Soldiers' and Sailors’ National Ce | vention at Pittsburgh is issued, and is equally brief and emphatic. We like the clause which invites all goldiers and sailors who are in favor of continning Con- gress as the law-making power of the Government.

Friends living romote from us write te ask what is the probability with regard to the result of our ap- proaching State Eloction. We answor speoifically and confidently. At the last Pros dential Election, tha total voto of our State was as follows: £ President. ... Lincoln. ....388,7 Governor ... Fenton, 1. Soymour, ... 361,264 14, Gowernor, Alvord ... 39,365, Floyd Jones 361249 Majorisics. Linooln, 6,749, Featon, 8,233; Alvord. 7.716. Gov. Fonton bad the highest voto and the largest majority of any man on either National or State ticket. And his vote stands to this day the largest ever oast for any one in this State for any office what- ever. At our Electior last Fall the vote stood See. State—Bariow. 301,055 Sloc: Controller—Tillhouse........ 30242 Kobinson. .. Majorities—Barlow, 27,857; Hillhouss, 30,576, We believe our majority was largely reduced in 1864, by foul play, especially with the Soldiers’ votes; Iast Fall we polled rather more than our actual ma- McClellan. . . .361,%6 273 198 .2n,85e jority, because the Democratic managers undertook to plow with strange beifers and so disgusted the rank and file of their party that thousands of them utterly refused to voto. If the same policy is per- sisted in, the disgust and disaffection will probably be greator this year. The New-York Democracy are rather bard on the hit; and it will take some time to reconcilo them to the leadership of Weed, Raymond and the ringer of t'a “little boll.” But on a square party issue, and 3 full popular vote, the Republican- Union majority in tixo State is just about 20,000, We can overgo that figure tbis Fall, and are deter- mined to do it. Never did the pulse of a party beat bigher than does that of the Republicans of New- York to-day. The New-Orleans massacre, with the nefarious means used to mislead the public mind touching the facts, and the dispatches of Gen, Sheri- dan, have aroused a stern public indignation which sweeps all bofore it. If the election were noxt Tues- day, wo should poll more votes than we did last year; with two months wherein to enlighten aud arouse the massos by publications and sposches, we can poll at Joast 40,000 more votes than any party ever yet cast ins this Stato sa: Y0 last Presidential election. And lot nono fear that we sball not make proper efforts throughout our State. We have a Congross to eYoct, and wo shall contest every distriot with des- perate resolution. Whero our local strength is over- whelming, we shall work for our State ticket; where wo aro rolatively weak, we shall fight to elect our Rapre- sontatives in Congress. We may lose one member (gained in '64 by ' 3rse divisions) in this City; we confidently expect ‘o gain three, and hope for four, elsowhere. A U. 8. Senator is at stake, and we have not the faintest notion of losing him. Our State Convention next week will be verystroug n numbers and character, and its meeting and delib- erations will swell the enthusiasm already provailing. W <hall there take steps to secure a thorough canvass of our State from end to end, aud to call out onr voto to the utmost. Recent acts of our Legislature have strengthened the in.pediments to Illegal Voting, which operates sign. 7 to our advantage. It will be far more difficult to ‘*vots often,” or vote at all if unqualified, than it evor yet has been. Our saving by these acts must amount to several thousand votes. Friends without! Trust New-York' Though sorely tried, she has not failed when you needed her. She will stand by you now by a decided and invinel- ble majority ! e . " ESENTA N IN CONGRESS. The Evening Post saw fit, last week, to say positively that + W hear from the Wer: that the Republican Congressional Conventions are nomios’ 2. for the most part, candidates who favor the immediate admission to Congreas of members from all the States, subje o the coustitational decision of each House.” Whereupou, Tag TRIBUNE, in utter amazement, ia- good snaugh 10 specify the districts where- eutions have nominaied such candidatest hove st temont a grave and mischievous error: but we The Posr's 1eapouse to our request bofors pronouncivg it soch.” To this courteous request, The Post responds as follows: reported the other lay that some Western Republican utions were nominsting for Congress men in favor of ting the Southern Sistes to representation. Our inform- ant specilles no particular districts, snd Tux TaisUNE denies the truth of the statemeat. Wo can only say, if it is not true, thoss who desire the success of 1 epublican party, e e seppoa s TRIBCNE 16 be promisent, Ao ¢ Tighi to be much alarmed. tation of the country and can see what s immediately necessary to product , will unite to send wcv:"n- only men who will vote for the immediate admission of delegates from nll the States. “If it is & fact that the Repodlican Couventions will not nominate such men, so mucn the worse for the Republican party,” &c. &e. —Here, after the grave assertion of The Post that the Western Republic us are, **for the most part,” nomivating candidates for Congress who favor the immediate admission of mewbers from all the States, we have a virtual confession that such assertion was unfounded, and the substitution therefor of The Post's opinion that the fuct ought to be us it said it reas. Is that honest journalism ! —Let us now briefly say why, in our opinion, and that of the Republicans aforesaid, the fact ought not 1o be as The Post would have it: 1. The several States recently in rebeilion against the Union have been so restored or reconstructed un- der Mr. Johnson's policy as to put all power therein into the hands of the late Rebols. Though they are adecided minority of the whole people of those States, and probably of each of them, they form the control- ling element of the White people, to whom political power is restricted. ‘Thus, not the Blacks only, but the steadfastly loyal Whites also, have been put com- pletely into the power of the late Rebels, who—im- poverished by the War and smarting because of their signal defeat—treat them with such despotic barba- rism sud cruelty as has been conspicuously evinced in the wholesale murders at Mempis and New-Oz- § | leans. In this very issue of The Post, we find the Editor quoting a Louisiana planter, who says of the South: Bociety is totally disorga: wo are liviog without we have no law. The town: villages abound ia rude and lawless charaoters, who make themsoives the terror of th his dooe t r to serve in any civil resontmout of thess ¥e A process; 8 ]nr‘y will not comviet; po man wili serve on & jury r he oan belp it; because whoever shomd in this way enforce the lawa against the lawless would risk tbe loss of “propert, end life. * * * 1tisabsurd for you to urge that a secon K"" s Republican party, should be organized in the Soutbern t hing of the kind would de tolerated, and it could I-:‘anunpl it. 1f & man should attempt to & Repablican speech {n the town near my plaotation, k¢ uld be shot down um," —We could cite mountains of evidence ia corrobora- tion of the above; but, since The Post's own testi- We hold that & community whereof the logal balf is powerless and the Robel or ruling class is so Jawless, violent and tyran- nical as is set forth above, is vot fit to be represented in Congress, and should be kept out till it can bo so brought in as to give its loyal, quiet people a fair and equal voice in its governwment. The constitutional requirement that Congress shall guarantee to every State a republican form of government clearly re- quires this. 1L We earnestly desire the early representation of each Btate in Congress; but not & Tepresentation of its Rebels to the exclusion of its loyal men. We want all tho people reprosentod as woll as all the States. 03 ot prevont Uteie o theie conntre and her ae. 28 TUESDAY, AUGUNT and treache heart is wanifestly with the ans; why | will it not ran up its real flag and fight us fairly wanfully, ala Blair* It has s perfoct right to its own views and p nees; it has no right to stab tho Republican party while it can e quotod as of that party’s own faith and household. How long must its double-dealing be borne? ———— DEPRECIATING GOVERNMENT CRPDIT. Wo have never besitatod to express our disapproval of Mr. McCulloch’s policy when it did not suit us—and in somo respects it does not—but wo cannot permit the effort being made by some of our brokers and bankers to dopreciate Guvernment credit abroad, for their own purposes, to pass without the soverest con- demnation, Wo have been shown the circular of a Now-York banking-house, sent out to foreign bankers by the Java, which strikes usas being unwise, un- patriotic, and untruo. This house directly charges the Treasary Department with being in tho interost of gold-gamblers, **to the great injury and embar- rassment of the trade and commerce of the country.” It charges the Secretary and Congress with being in & conspiracy, ** which can only be interpreted as con- templating the payment in a greatly depreoiated our- rency of the 5-20 bonds of 1362, falling due next May, which, by existing laws, a~e not payable in gold, nor oven in legal tonder-greenhacks, but only in notes of the National banks.” We can scarcely imagine the motive for cireulating & statement so rockless and untrue. In tho first place, the policy of the Treasury Department was not sustainod by Congress. 1f Congress had taken the advice of the Secretary, and given us asensible Fund- ing bill, we should now be on the high road to specie payments. That was not done, and accordingly our whole financial system is loose and slip-shod, and wo are as far from specie payments as before, Be this a3 it may, however—and we must make the best of it until Congress roassembles—tho integrity of the Treasury Department will bo maintained and asserted. The five-twenties will be paid in gold— and the option of paying them will not be exer- cised until we return to specio payments. For any American banker to say to European bankers that it is intended to redeem the and | | S them forght through the War for the U ; not one d baye hean hented from their homes, if not killed while Gefendiag them. They would have been disfranchised and ostracized as traitors to Old Virginia. Do those mou deserve ench insult? M Was ev R STATE CONVENTION. Oxanag County (Westorn District) sends the Hon. F. M.

A REBEL WAKE OVER MASSACRE. The moeting of Rebels at Memphis to ratify the Philadelplia platform wassuch a grimly cruel mockory of * my policy,” a4 the President himsell can hardly fail to perceive. Gen. Forrest, who ordered the buteherey at Fort Pillow, presided, and Recorder (Creighton, who shouted like a dewon to the mob at Memphis to * kill every d—d nigger,” was a Vice- President of the meeting. How boisterously these yvillains indorsed Mr. Johnson it will bea terrible treat for the President to read. Forrest said ** there was mo decis n the late war,” and he pro- posed now *to go to the ballot-box." Col. Henry, another Rebel raider, said boldly that the *‘South had got mearly all st Philadelphia that it asked for. The abolition of Slavery was a cruel mistake.—* * * The delicate hands of Southern women would no longer wipe the clamminess of death from the brow of the negro "—we suppose when such unhung scoun- drels as Creighton murder him. The speakers were all of one mind as to what should be done with Gov. Brownlow and the State Gov- ernment of Tennessee, declaring that they * would yot put their feet on the necks of the Radicals.” One Union General, in command, whom the whole nation will cry shame upon, a witness of the massacre at which Creighton acted as chief executioner, sat down among the murderers like a creature. Stoneman, sandwiched between Forrest and Creighton, was a patent gauge of all the value of his fighting—an ex- ample of how weak men are sometimes subdued by big criminals. Fraternize, if you pleasé, General; bat for a soldier to conciliate assassins we hold to be the lowest depth of infamy. Every brave and loyal man cries shame !—Think of Sheridan sitting down with Monroe—of Stoneman hobnobbing with Creigh- ton!

Dean Richinond, who died in this city yesterasy morn ing, at tho residonce of Samucl J. Tilden, wus born March 31, 1804, st Woodstock, Vermont. Iis parents were poor, and his friends without influence, and at 14 years of age he was an orphan; tut from the first he displayed that rostleas and enterprising spirit which marks his career. Ho loft Vermont in boyhjod to seek his fortuns in this State, sud first sottled st Selina, wher bhe obtained a situstion asa clork. Hia first savings were de- voted to paying the debts he had reccived as a sole legacy from his parents. Boon after be removed to Syracuse, where he engaged in the salt-boiling business, and in & few years became very successful. His next stop was to engage in the commission and “forwarding busi- ness, by which he gained a fortune which be invested in the purchaso of mailroad securities, becoming largely interested in several important roads. Westorn New-York was in 1836 a grand field for such epergy and foresight as his, and about this time he was maae a Direetor of the Buffalo and State Line Railroad. Upon its consolidetion with the Central Road, i 1853, Mr. Richmond was elocted Vice-President of the Company, and in 1861 succeeded Mr. Erastus Corning as President. Hir connection with other railronds, though not official, was iafluential. For many years he had livod in Batavia, and acquired great wealth, These are the main facts of his business life, but it was as a politician that ho became one of the powers of the State. He was a Domocrat all his life, but in his youth especi- ally & liberal Democrat, using his influence for the froe- soil wing of the party. He opposed tho annexation of Toxas in 184, and sustained Mortin Van Buren. In 1854 he denounced the Nebrasks Dbill. But though reprosenting the more tolerable prin- ciples of his party he was always very careful not to ik its success at the polls. Hence his fre- quent reconcilistions with the leaders who differod with bim in opinion, and the compromises of the two sections of the party. No Stato politician had a bighor reputation #8 a4 manager and wire-worker, aod in 1850 he was appoint- ed Chairman of the Democratic Central Committes, & position which he held till his death. At the Charleston. Convention, in 1860, he did all in his power to prevent the division of tho Democracy, appreciating, perhaps, the rational denger, and doubtlcss foreseeing the ruin of his purty. During the Rebellion he acted with the Demoe~ racy in opposing the Administration, though it must be remembered to his honor that he did not join with who would zladly have risked the destruction of the U to gain a party triumph. At the Chicago Convention of 1864, Mr. Richmond was very active, and ardently, promoted the nomination of McClellan, His pos litical course of lote §s well known. Ho was one of the three or four;men who shaped the action of the Saratogs Convention, and at Philadelphia was consulted equally by the seceders from the Republi- can party, the Southern delegates, and the Democrats. Ho sustained, of course, the policy of Mr. Johnsen, and The Post intimates that the Democratic platforn and ticket of 1865 were adopted after assurances given him dur- ing an interview with the President. This fact,we may nole in passing, is important as showing how early Mr. John« son’s secret mnogotiations with the Democrats began. Doan Richmond was a shrowd leader, but withal bold. The spirit of an adventurer was born in him; he loved politics as somo gamblers love cards, as much for the sske of the excitement s the power. His ambition did oot seom to aim st office, for he repeatedly declined nomina- tions for the Governorship and the United States Senate. 1t was botter, in his estimation, to rule & party, then ta lead it, for he well knew the difference betweem the freedom and the might of a fow gentlemen quietly at dinner to plan a great campaign, and the moled influence of an official. It was his pride to placa in the throne the man of bis choice, and to stand bohind it. Thus all his extended influence was personal ; ho hall woren & web over the State, and the threads all contered in his gresp. His energy, if mot his principles, wat ontitled to respect. The illness of which he dicd, first showed itself at Brantford, Conn., about three weeks %0, yet he did not yield, but, without consnlting a physicisa,’ went to the Saratoga Convention. ~Constan! wing worse, he persevered, and utend‘:«l the mmflifim- vention, and thence traveled to Washington. ~ After Mr. Tilden, who knew his condition, had removed bim to hig own home, he wonld, if permitted, have gone to Albang 10 attend the meeting of the Democratic State Committony This was the natare of the man, Rest was not rest tq him, when he heard afar off the noise of the battle. | Personally Mr. Richmond had much rity, and though his opponents were many he b ‘W encmies But, while we are glud to speak of him as & more generoue opponent than many of his collcagues, as 8 business mas of rare enterprise, and a politician of rude force, his powgs was only of the day. He invented plans, but did not enforee {mncip es. In the {mt reforms which have re-creatad he pation Dean Richmond had no part, and little sym: pathy; the cleverness and cunning of the managor of meu and parties are always outweighed by the earnest devotian of a simple mind to truth, The publie life of this success. ful controller of elections will have little influcnce on the future. He was the tireless architect of edifices that per: tually fell down; the rebuilder of ruins which should ve been left to decay. Death spatched bim suddenly from his schemes, but may not be said to h taken hin before his work was done, for such work is never doe; by its nature it is without end; it is the labor of Sysipbus/ the rolling of the heavy stone up the bill of Reform; the uring of water into the cask of the Daniades. The emocratic y will loso an able and selfishly dvvol;"ll leader in Dean Richwoand, but the future will aof miss him, THE REV. JOHN PIERPONT. The Rev. Jobn Pierpont, whose death we regret to sn/ pounce,was born April 6, 1785, in Litcbfield, Conneeticut. His education was completed in 1804, at Yale College, and in 1805 he became a titor in the family of Col. Win. Allsten, of North Carolina. In 1809 he returned to Comneetiout, whare he studied 1a «, and settled at Newburyport, Mass. He did not suceeed as a lawyer, and his mercantile enter prises in Baltim -re and Boston were also unfortunate. Io 1816 he published * Airs of Palestine,” one of hi first poews, sud subsequently studied 1n the Harvarl theological school. In 1819 he was ordeined winister of the Hollis-st. Unitarian Chureb in Boston. Tn 1835-6 he visited Enrope, and published in 1840 an edition ef hit poems. His persistence in spoaking in favor of the tem- perance reform caused trouble with his congregation, which resulted in 8 seven years coutroversy, when he re- signed. In 1855 he accepted the charge of the Unitariac Church in Troy, N. Y., where he remained four years, aud then took charge of the first Congregational Church in Medford, Mass., where he continned to resid> till the beginning of the war. Of late Mr. Pierpoat—probably unfitted by age for the active duties of a clergy man, wat obliged to accept o clerkship in the Treasury Department, and holding that pesition died. John Pierpont was ¢ good man, and an earnestreformer. He labored actively i1 bebalf of temperance, anti-Slavery, the melioration of prison discipline, and viher reforms. But as a voet ho will be chiefly remembered. His most important poems were the inspiration of special occasions; one of the longest was read in honor of the centennial celebration at Litebficld, and even * Airs of Palestine, the work which first gave him reputation, was written for recitation at a charity concert. o idea of thi m s the exhibition of the power of music in eonjunction with Jocal scemery and natioval character, mainly referring to the sacred history, His temperauce sougs, religious and patriotic pocins aro numerous, and probably the majority have never been collected. During the was he wrote several noble songs, inspired with passion and energy, and remarki for one almost an octogenarian. Mr. fierpout, who was always strong eud mfiy, re- tained much of his power alinost up to his death, As ex American poet he cannot be ranked with the Lest; tae Dighest imagination w,s denicd him, but some of his re- ligions poetry has rarely been excelled for st and simplicity. ‘We may quote as 8 tins exsmple of this style the beautiful Dedication Hymn written for the C o tional Chureh in Plymouth), upon the grouxd ocospied by tho earliest Congregational Church in America: winds and waves were roariog; Plgrims ¥ o epoated The musie of their jsala.
