Nothing is said of his politics, but we havo trustworthy assuranco that be is a Radical Re- publican. He is & merchaumt who has but lately en- tered public life. The removal of Union men and the appointment of Copperheads and Rebels continue rapidly. That Mr. Lincoln's appointiuents are unpopular with Mr. John- son our columns to-day give plenty of evidence. Josiah Millard, Assessor of Internal Revenue at Alex- andria, Va., the first Union man in the State arrested and imprisoned by the Rebals, has boen turned out of office to make room for a pardoned Robel. Tbe re- moval of Union postmasters and appointment of Democrats is beeoming ono of the great features of Mr. Johnson's administration The Republican-Unionists of the IIId (Brooklyn) Congress District are engaged in nominating a Ropresentative for the presont as also for the next Congress; and on Saturday night & wajority of the Convention voted to nominate by secret ballot. This is cowardly, and indicates rascality. A delegate should never soek conce it argues that be means to cheat somebody. Dalf of the voting masses, wo demand that the dele- gates shall vote so that they shall not desirs conceal- ment, and so that man may surely know whether his delegates were or were not faithful. Let thers be light! THE OFFICE-UOLDERS RAID. In view of the fact that a portion of the office- holders and office-hrokers who had hitherto cursed the Republican- Union party by drawing their support from it had gone into the Philadelphia Johuson move- ment, and bad united in the call of a hybrid State Convention to nominate a ticket, composed mainly of Copperheads, in opposition to the Republican-Union party, our recent State Convention, at the request of the delegates from this City, most wisely directed 8 réorganization of the party Lere, by the election of a new General Committee, by the new Assembly dis- triots; each district entitled to choose a mumber of delegates proportioned to its vote for Lincoln and Fenton in 1#64. This has been done, aud a new Gea- eral Committes (composed in good part of thoss who wero members of the old one, but not including those who bave joined the Bread-and-Butter brigade) has been duly eonstituted, and is now tho recognized and respected head of the Republican-Union orgauization in our Cit; That the Bread-and-Butter men would not be pleased with this, was fully understood. As thoy had loft the party which gave them consequence and office, and were haud-and-glove with its enemies, there was no reason on earth why they should longoer share its | councils, much less direct then. The rdorganization was intended, among other good ends, to get rid of them, and let them go where they belong. It was whispered on Saturday that these lingerers by the flesh-pots of Johusonism purposed bolding a meeting that evening of the old General Committes at the regular headquarters; and the rumor drew together most of the members of that defunct Coun- mittee—at least five-sixths of them open, hearty supporters of the Constitutional Amendment, of Gov. Fenton and the whole Syracuse ticket. To their amazement, every one of these on presenting him- self at the door of the committee-room, was refused admittance ! Vie-President C. 8. Spencer, Secretary Stroug, and most of its regular officers. were among those thus excluded—the door being kept by men who asserted that the meeting within was a private one and not ameeting of the Committee. A crowd of ** roughs,” including many well-known thieves, bounty swind- { Jers, burglars, &c., were on hand to back the con- spirators inside, and diversified their shoulder-hitting performances by cheers for Hoffman aod several high- way robberies. The Republican-Unionists present, including five-sixths of the old Committee, finally left the ground, withont attempting to force their way into the committee-room. The Times says: “Owing to an annovncement which was made at the meet. iag of the Republican General Committee on Friday evening, 1o the effect toat o meeting of the former Committee was Lo be held lust night, our reporter proscuted bimself at the door, but sed admitcance.

Times bas scemed to differ with us touching the actual and the proper treatment of the official head of the lste Confederacy; yet the follow- ing article from its columns is but a resuné of what we have boon saying on the subject for minths past. There is & conglomeration of shuffle, sham, shirk and sneak, in tho treatment of this prisoner, wtjch is cal- culated to neuseats the civilized world, and for which somebody will yot be held to a stern respnsibility. Every manly instinot demands that Davis should be promptly tried: if e is not to be tried, or is only to be subjected to a costly and mischicvous sam trial, with no oxpectation or desire of convicting bim, he should be liberated at once, And, if leis to be tried only for treason, then the charge of assassina- tion should bo retracted as publioly as it was made. And it is tho duty of the Executive, through his Attorney-General, to act . promptly and fravkly iu the premises, so as to reliove the Government from the imputation of calumniating an enemy and olding for eighteen monilis & prisoner whom it dare 20t put on trial. "The American people are being disgraced by the acts of their rulers, and they must isist ona speady change.

Immediate and radical education is as vital an elemeust in Republi- can institutions as the suffrage i Education se- excites ambition, com , or Onr e, Al and social improve. he suffrage would pos- ) cures self-respect, supports opens opportunity for pe ment. Without education, so8s but half its value, citizenship would be an im- perfect boon, and opportunities would be missed. At present, the Blacks can bave no education but what the educated North is willing to bestow. They can- not pay for it, and if they conld we should bave to furnish apparatus aud teachers, sorry to say, w1l be able to do little or uothing in this direction; nothing in the way of supplying books aud instruction, little in the way of providing school- | houses. It does guarantee protoction, enconragement | and moral support, and that is much. The Bureay relies ou the people of the North to « , comm| gion, hire and sustain the men and women who have heart for the work of giving those poor poople the ure of their brains. An official letter from Galveston, dated Bept. 12, informs us that by direction of Major- Gen. J. B. Kidder, Assistant Commissioner for Texas, tire porth-eastern part of that State has been assigned to the “ American Freedwen's aud Union Com. miskion,” to be by them supplied with free schools and teachers for the Blacks. The district contains about 20,000 square wiles; it comprises much of the fertile wheat and cotton lands. Its pop- ulation was voted for loyalty during the war. The call for Freedmen's schools all through the section, says our letter, is Mud and urgent; no less than 60 sehools, well furnished and officered, are needed to meet the instant demand. From New-Orleans comes the same ery. The colored people are eagerto receive instruction, ambitious to elevate themselves—but ask aid in starting on their course. Gen. Gregg, one of Sheridan’s men, * is very anxious for aid from the « New-York Freedmen's Relief Association’ in keeping up Freedmen's schools.”” The Buresu appropriates money for rent of buildings, but nothing for teachers. + Many excellent women, dismissed by the Public School Board for not being Rebels, stand ready to take charge of the schools at moderate salaries;” but the money cannot be rgised there. 1n Virginia the Freed- men are clamorous for education, The Bureau offi- _cers write urgently for belp. Mr. Armstrong, one of the ablest and most discriminating of them, regards edacation as the mo-t efficacious—indecd, as the only officiont means of permanently elevating their condi- tion. ‘The primary aud intermediate schools in Rich- mond are so rapidly bringing forward a cluss of intel- ligent and ambitious youug people, that the project of establishing there 1 Normal School to provide the Blacks with teachers of their own is not only en- tertained bnt advanced. The colored people them- selves take the lead in the enterprise, contribute labor and money for its promotion to the extent of their ability, have provided already three-fourths of The Bureau, we are | across the roo | Conservativ has put forth as an in ONDAY, OCTOBER 1, 1866 M audris,” “The people afe craay for work, and know Low to do it, teo;™ but they can get noshing to work on. Their fourishing Indnstrial School is nearly at a stand still for lack of material. What is to ba done? There are people hungry for intelligence, willing to gire all they can scrape to- gether to obtain it; bolding out their hauds to one of our well-known associations, begging its officers to cke out their small meags with noble bounty. The Freedmon's and UniozjCommission would be only too thankful to do it; it is what they came into existence for; they have every facility for doing it, but money. Last yoar a single branch of this Commission spent between $200,000 and $300,000 in the faithful dis- chargo of its self-imposed labor; it would gladly dis- burse twica as much this year: but at the opening of the &rason, when its work shonld bo getting bravely under w t stands helpless, bas not a dollar in its troasury. It is not they, but the country that makes appeal for aid in the great causo of the hour. We trust the appeal will ba listened to and answered in a way to make everything sure, for the coming Winter at least. Ifany have more confidence in us than in the Association, lot them send contributions to this office. But they will do bettor to send to J. B. Collins, No. 40 Wall-st., or to the Rev. Lyman Abbot, or Francis G. Shaw, No. 76 Jobn-st. Let them obtain the ro- ports, also, of the Commission, and make themselves acquainted with the magnificont work already done in years past. A compreliension of that work, aud of the broad nnsectarian spivit in which it has been exe- cuted, will make them willing to increase their gifts and bappy in cobperating with men who are working at the foundations of a new social order in the South, ‘“ PEACE” IN ARKANSAS.

Gov. Swaun, in order togain a seat in the U. S.

Possibly ho might, within the range of Sheridan's grape, though the fate of Dostie, Horton and Henderson, does not encourage the presumption. But that a Radical Republican from the North could uot freely speak in Shreveport, Opelousas or Taugipahos, unless special instructions were given by the ex-Rebels of New-Orleans to their brethren in the ipterior, The Crescent knows right well, The National Intolligencer said truly that the Southern Loyalists' Convention could not have been held in any Southoru City, and a planter wrote to The Eveming Post that any man attempting to make a Republican speech in his neigh. borhood would be shot without ceremony. We shall mend all this in time; and then it will be discoyered, - even by the blindest, that there isno sectional contest, but only the world-old struggle betwoen Slavery and Freadom. We have chronicled, within the last year, the par- don by President Johnson of not less than forty per- sons convicted of counterfeiting the National shin- plasters. 'We should like to know, first, if any person has been convicted of this crime whom the President has not pardoned; secondly, if any one could counter- feit the National curreney under such circumstances that the President would not promptly set him at lib- erty, Counterfeiting is the most deliberate and most mis- chievous of crimes that do not destroy life. Its vie.' tims aro mainly the poor, the simple, the ignorant, It tends to destroy confidence and causes incaleulable suffering and misery. And its chief patron and pro- tector at present is Andrew Johnson of Tennessee. THE DRA - RISTORI.
