Patterson, clsimed as a friend of the Johnson policy; has appeared in tbe Union Canvass in this Stato as an carnest supporter of Copgress. —— The counsel of Jeff. Davis, we are informed, have resolved to apply for & writ of habeas corpus; but in caso they do mot consider it politic, the Bar of Richmond will make the application instead. [l The Hon. Tsaac N. Arnold, Sixth Auditor of the S'reasury, formerly Momber of Cougress from Chi- #ago, has resigned his Auditorship. Mr. Amold was the Life-long friend of Abrabaw Lincoln, his chief com- or at the Tifinois bar, and was selected by him us yhistorian of his Administration. ’ His appointment _was the last one made by Mr. Lincoln. The Treaty of Peace between Prussia and Hesse- Darmstadt, the fll text of which we publish this ‘morning in anotber colum, is the last but one of the troatios botween Prussia and ler late opponents, the only power with which an agreement bas not yet Dbeen arrived at being the Kingdom of Saxovy. All the essential points of the treaty have already been reforred to in our Berlin correspondence, The com- ‘paratively lenient conditions of peace the Grand Duke of Hoso-Darmstadt owes entirely to the intercession 'mp-film the Czar and ‘Queen Vic- Without them he would have at least lost the whole Province of Uppor Hesse.

The is teaching men to thinl for themsolves—to to weigh, to jndge, instead of taking things on It i pducating them to indeveudent thoueht. What is callod authority in matters of opinion, once 0 potent in direoting the current of human thought, is becoming weaker and weaker every day. We are loarning to inquire, first, mot what doea that groat man or tho other colobrated charactor think, but what are the merits of the case? As intelligonce spreads amongs the masses, society is gradually escaping from intellectual thralidom. Oneresult of this may be to weaken the sentiment of reverenco for man; but there will be a more than compensating gain in the firmer hold which truth, reached through a pro- cess of independent inquiry, will have upon the gen- oral mind. Carlyle, the hero-worshiper and famous suthor; Kingsley, the Radical novelist and Clerical Chartist of yore, and Ruskin, the great Art eritic, have all come to the rescue of Eyre, ex-Governor of Jamaica. Small benefit, however, will their notori- ous client derive from their advocacy of his causc. With the evidence before them of the atrocitics com- mitted under his sanction, in the suppression of the Jate so-called rebellion among the blacks of Jamaica, the great bulk of the peoplo of Euglaad have already formed their opinion as to the blamewortbiness of the man, and not even the prestige of such distinguished names can relieve him of the condomnation which his groat offenses merit, We have illustrations nearer homo. Neither Beecher's populatity nor Seward's ‘The world is doomed. The reign of Trath, in the fullness of ber might and her glory, draws nigh. The Report of the Military Board of Commission appointed to investigate the causes of the New-Or- leans massacro is ot last before the public, furnished to Tes TrisUsE, exclusively, from our Washington Bureau, aud obtained with much difficulty. The President, in spite of the univorsal demand for its publication, has kept this extraordinary docnment secret, and there was reason to fear its entire sup- pression. It will easily be seen why ho dared not allow it to be published. The whole responsibility of the massaore is placed upon the civil authorities of New-Orleans, and threugh them upon the President, who sustained theit course. The Radieal Convention is exonerated from the charge of inciting the negroes to violence, and it is proved that the negroes who paraded were generally unarmed, and could have had no hostile intention. When the Convention was attacked, it is established “Dbeyond a shadow of doubt that, except the two or three pistols in the hands of the procession megroos, the besieged party wero totally unarmed.” On the othier hand, the Commission found that the Mayor ex- pected that an organized aitack would be made on the Convention, and that on the morning of the massacre he withdrew the police from the streets, armed them, and beld them to await orders. The city was left to the mercy of the rioters. The first attack was made by ex-Rebel sol- diers upon the nog\;oes, and this was followed by the advance of the police in three columas, firing on the negroes and the Convention. Organizations of Rebel soldiers joined in the attack. The alarm-bell gave the well-known signal which, during the Re- bellion, summoned the Rebel soldiers to the defense of the eity against a Federal attack. Bweeping | through the streets, in answer to the tolling bell, came Hays's Brigade and bodies of men bear- ing the insignia of Rebel troops. They fell upon this helpless Convention, this poor procession of negroes, | who, carrying the flag of tbe United States, blindly trusted to its protection, and * pursued the work of | massacre with a cowardly ferocity unsurpassed in the ( aunals of erime.” It was not the duty of the Com- mission to deseribe the scenes which ensued, but the report gives startling evidence of the fiendish spirit of the police and the wob, and state, as & firm con- viction, that * but for the presence of the troops, fire and bloodshed would have raged throughont the night in all negro quarters of the city, and that the lives and property of Unionists and Northern men would have been at the mercy of the mob.” They also de- clare that Mayor Monroe knew what the action of the police would be, and “‘intended the inevitable con- sequences of bis own acts.” Yet this is the man, and these the men, that Andrew Johnson has defended as the friends of order. In his speech at St. Louis, three days after the date of this report, when the substance of it had in all prob- ability reached him, and when, at least, the main facts were known to the whole country, Mr. Johnson declared every man in the Convention to be a trait- or,” and the Congress of the United States to be ‘“ the cause and origin of every drop of blood that was shed.” As in the first place, be gave full power to the Civil Government of New-Orleans to do as it pleasod with the Convention, and refused to take any steps for its protection, so he has since been the consistent dofender of Mayor Monroe and his police, end the traducor of the loyal men they killed. He has denounced Congross, and the Com- ‘mission, by the same implication, has indicated his own policy as the cause of this massacre. Between the two the people will not find it hard to choose. There is Sheridan, Baird, and a Commission of Ameri- can goldiers, on the one side, and on the other Andrew Johnson violently appealing at a Copperhead banquot to & mob of ipphndhg Copperhead SHALL DESERTERS VOTE! Congress bas passed an act which prescribes that those who—having voluntarily enlisted into or been lawfully drafted to serve in the armios raised for the defense of the Union—deserted from that service, shall be therefor disfranchised, and no longer en- titled to exercige the Right of Suffrage. Thelast Leg- islature of Pennsylvania passed an nct identical with this in object and nearly so in terms. A Harrisburg (Copperbead) correspondent of The Herald says: “One of the ymerous queatious at prosent be pub. ot G Feaanena yoto | b, Hadio e B not, even thongh blood be sj in the cffort to prevent them. The Democrats say that, unless they Lave been couvieted do- serters—that is regularly tried by conrt-martial as prescribed t by Jaw—the Judges of thie clections wonld not be authorized to refuse them iceess to the ballot-box. There i a decision of the Supreme Court of this State on this point going to sustain the argument of the Democracy, and’ all lipufl:ml yrouglh- the State quote it [y for the plrpose aabus .“&. winds of the Kadicals, and en: ing the to come up 10 the polis ; but the Geary men not be ', and say are not fo let thewm vote, law . is considerable feeling on this subject, aod I not b | Uning every expadicut o set e tde-of ‘puble b1 hal they sondes would e lastiug eheon of the great State of Peousylvauia. Thoy are working with great earnestness in the matter, and the cliances are they will earry their point.” —The point to which we would attract attention is the fact that the Copperheads recognize every deserter snd draft-sneak as prima facic a Copporhead, and fight sgainst his disfranchisement as o dead loss to their ticket. As the honorably discharged soldiers are nearly all for Geary, the deserters are instinctively sod unanimously for Clymer. It is a clear case of natursl sffinity. * There are several thousand well, known desertors in the State,” says this Copperhead, aud ‘it is pretty weil wnderstood which wide they are on.” Toyal men' faithful soldiers do yow ohoose to bo counted on that side ? B — THE IMPERIAL MANIFESTO. Wo publish this morning the text of the eircular which the Marquis do Lavalette, ad interim Minister for Foreign Affairs, has sddressed to the diplomatic agents of France. We received an abstract of the ciroular two days after its publication in the Moniteur —on the 10th of September—and on that occasion prosented our views on the subject, in which now, when the full text of the circular is before us, we find nothing to change and but little to add to. The manifesto of the French Government—for this oharacter the ciroular undoubtedly has—is emphati- cally pacifio in its professions. It expressly under- takes to allay tho excitoment of public opinion in France by arguing that in the important changes which haye recently taken place in Europe there is nothing at which the French people have the remotest reason to feel alarmed, For France, with Algeria, it says, *‘will soon number 40,000,000 inhabitants, Gormany 37,000,000, Austria 35,000,000, Italy 26,000,- 000, Spain 18,000,000." Franoe, therefore, will con- tinue to rank all these States in point of population, and has no reason for being alarmed. The circular, on the coutrary, finds some obvious advantages in the new arrangements, Heretofore the Holy Alliance united all the peoples of Europe from the Ural to the Rhine Against France. There was no nation in Europe, with the exception of Bpain, with which it was possible for France to contract an alliauce. Now the spirit of the Holy Alliance is broken- Prussia having adopted the nationality principle, of which heretofore France has beeu the ouly champion, has become the natural friend and ally of Fravce. The same holds good, to a still higher degree, of Italy. Austria, relievod of her Italian and German leanings, bas no longer any interests contrary to those of France. The disappearance of secondary States the circular looks npon as the result of an irresistible power, and, in view of Russia and the United States, each of which may wi the next hundred years count a hundred million of men, it thinks it not for the interest of the nations of Central Europe to remain broken up into little States without either force or public spirit. The latter part of the circular extols the glorious mediation of France in the late war, and points out as the mission of France in Europe “‘to strengthen the accord between all those powers which desire at one and the same time to maintain the principle of suthority and to favor progress.” The opinion which, both in France and abroad, provails of the signal fail- ures of the Napoleonic policy during the last six years, will hardly be improved by this part of the mauifesto. But it is impossible to deny that there is a grea t dea of truth in the former part. By raising the standard of the German nationality, Prussia has formally broken with the spirit which established the Holy Alliance, and entered at least into an alliance with the dewocratio principle of popular and national sovereignty. The Prussian- Govern ment cannot now retreat; it must carry through the work onco commenced, and Low can it carry through its task without new attacks upon the divine right of some of the princes? The views of the old King and Count Bismark about monarchism and democracy have probably undergone but little change, but both have shown on several recent occa- sions that they would comprehend the impossibility of completing the task without the hearty sympathy of the Liberal party. As long as Germaupy is not fully united there is no danger of Prusiia uniting again with Rassia and Austria for the establishment of & Holy Alliance. The remarks of the circular on the impending disap- pearance of the sspondary St in Europe are equally true. Whether it is just or unjust, better for the people of the secondary Status or worse, the fact is undeniable that they altogetber at the mercy of their powerful neighbors, that they aré even now bardly sovereign, and that they will cease to exist | agreement w o great whenever the great Powers can come to concerning them. It would certain guarantec to the future peace of Europe if, with regard to these powerless States, the principle were generally adopted that none of them should be annexed to o larger State against the outspoken will of the inbabitants. We believe, thercfore, that the former part of the manifesto containg werds which are eapable of a right counstruction, and which would, out, be conducive to the preservalion of peace in Europe. But neither France nor Prussia have thus far awakened aty belief in the sfucerity of thoir official professions. —_— SOUTHERN MANUFACTURES. For a full quarter of a century, we have been urging the South to manufacture her own cotton, at least to the extent requisite for the satisfaction of her own needs. Itismore absurd to send her staple to and buy her fabrics from Old than New-Englahd in the proportion of four to one; but the principle involved in the two bluuders is the same. The South has ample water-power, o fine climate, and hundreds of thou- sands of women and children, widowed or orphaned by the War, whe would gladly earn honest bread by working in factories. Why should she longer send abroad for her cotton fabrics? Surely, they would cost her far less if made at Lome, Bays The N. Y. Sun: “The favor wi manutacturing projocts now meet in the South §s o good sign. Before the war, there was no manufac taring done in that section, d grew rich by the manufncture of Southern stple of the South now in to appreciate the importa ubs matter, and the sub- ‘of manufacturing is diseussed with n great deal of interest. Une of our Southern exchanges remarks that ‘nothing will bring the New-Englander to his seuscs so umazingly as the matfactaring of Southern stuples by Southern people’ That sentiment iy vather vindictic:, bu rerthelecs true.”" —Thus the simple igno ance and folly of a Southern journal becomes sheer, bald maliguity in The Sun. Millions of Now-England money have ere now been invested in mannfacturing at the South, as many more millions should be and will be. A good Proteot- ive Tariff would causo twenty factories to be erected at the South for every one in New-England. And New-England skill, ingenuity, and cnterprise, aro all at the service of the South whenever she desires their aid in establishing manufactures, New-Eogland is sufficiently far-seeing and large-souled to reslizo that the solid prosperity of her own manufactures will be aseured by the establishment of factorics at the South. The Georgia Citizen owlishly says: “ The last Radical Congress, with a view to further burden the cotton-planter, nid a tax of 3 ceats ¥ i on the staple, Which id boforo the cotton leaves the collection distriot: Tout this 1ax is not ohargeabls uuloss the cotton is sent forward for sale or shij t. Now, the way 10 suve the tax Is to manu- facture cotton where it is grown. There will be double advan- tago in this, not »nl‘mln the tax of $15 @ bale of 500 ™ sayed o the producer, but the maunfactured articlo will brisg him twice the money that the ruw material will nly forming associations ju every county, the planters have thus ihe oppor- Lanity of doing themsclyes us well as the country the greatest sorvive. Lot them profit by the opportuity.” — This is almost a8 silly as it is malignant. The tax is payable at the factory or the shipping porty and cannot be evaded as The Citizen fancies. But let the Sonth burry up her factories—thousands, tens of thou- sands of them—the more the better. The Mobile Gazette, in nominating Clement C. Clay, jr., son of the late Governor, an unpardoned Rebel and original secessionist, for the United States Senate, thus advocates his claims: “The next slatare of Alabama will be called upon to choose & senator to represent us in the Lu.‘lm of the t?:hd r., for ticn , that he States. We nowinato C. C. Clay, jr., may fing back in the tacth of his the foul charge of nssassination that the creaturs, Joseph Holt, has eadeatored (o fasten upon bim by means of suborned testimony. The Phila- hia Convention and the President tell us that we must ' ¢ with all our rights unimpaired. Ttis one of our rights cliooso our ows sepators. But would it bo prudent? will say the weak-kueed. It s always prudent to be manty.” This is the Soutbern policy. The exclusion of loyalists and the choice of representative Relels “for office. Can the North have much faith in devotion to | o1 above. the Union whioh is thus expresseed ! faithfully carried | NEW-YORK DAILY TRIBUNE, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1866.—W I'TH JOURNALISM—OTFFICE. The World says: Tie TrisUNE baa foaud neither time nor space, as yet, to five n column or two to list of the attachés and ex-attachés of Tk Trinvsk who have received. or bogged. or now hold Fed- erul appointments, ranging from first class consulships to almost any clsss clerkships. Tk TRwuNe, probabiy, has not had & correspondent in Washingtou for years who did not hold a nowinal clerkship to a Congressional Committee, or enjoy some other sinecure.” —So far a8 we can recollect, Mr. James 8. Harvey, Minister to Portugal, is the only person ever con- nected with Te Teisuxe who now holds any office under the Fedoral Government, save that we ander- stand that Mr, McElrath, formerly publisher of Tug TriBUNE, has very recently been appointed to s place in the Custom-House, We need hardly say that neither of these appointments was suggestod or prompted by us, though we esteem Mr. McElrath & vory fit and worthy man. He was once before in some Revenno placo—perhaps the same that he now holds—until we won him away from it by offering bim a better salary than the Government gave him. As a very largo proportion of those Republicans who write well have, at some time or other, written for Tug TRiBUNE, we really canhot say how many “attachés and ox-attachés of THE TRIBUNE" have either had, or wished they had, some sort of office. 1t would not be possible for us to make a list of them. ‘We might pretty accurately name those who have held office; but as to those who sought it ineffectually, their griefs generally lie buried in their own bosoms. All we can say is, that we have paid fairly for the sorvices they rendered us, and they have fairly earned the meney we paid them; so that we consider the ac- count fairly balanced. 1f any one ever made his cou- nection (past or present) with Tug TRIBUNE a claim to office, he was guilty of a very gross impertinence, for which he had neither authority nor excuse, As to our correspondents at Washington, we have paid them fully for their services, and have been fairly entitled to their whole time. If any of them ever sold a part of it to the Government he defrauded us, and doserved the severest reprehension. No appointment of any correspondent of Tre TRIBUNE to any ‘* clerk- ship” or other offico at Washington was either sought, desired, or acquiesoed in by us; and, if any such in- fidelity to our service has existed, it must have been very rare. Let our correspondents take notice that we shall henceforth consider the acceptauce of any Government employment or stipend a sufficient reason for their dismiseal from our employment. —_— HOW SHALL WE DEAL WITH LIARS? The World of the st contains the following edito- rial: “The Radicals are guilty of what they pretend to consider & crime. They mako *invidious distinctions on account of color ;' they give o Mack soldier, beonuse he is Black, three times as much bounty as they giee to @ White soldier." —Journalists are fallible like other men, and often make incorrect statements in perfect good faith. But here is & base lie for which there is not a shadow of excuse—a lio with circumstance—a lie a hundred times exposed, rofuted, kicked out, spit upon; yet persisted in smply becanse it is calenlated that there arc men so ignorant, stupid, besotted, that political capital may be made by such persistence. Will some advocato of sugary speech be so good as to tell us bow they would deal with the villains who concoct and reiterato such calumnies? What do they care for simple exposuro! To ask them for proof is to flatter tLem, and fncite o half belief that there st be something in their Roorback; to hope to shamo | them is like hoping to pierce the hide of a rhino- ceroz with a straw. We know no way to deal with such ereatures but to brand them as the misereants they are. ‘Tell us how else to deal with them, you who believe there is a more excellent way ! —m NEWSPAPER GOSSIP. The Times complains that in several instances its Editor has been misrepresonted by our correspond- ents: 1. In stating that ke had callod o mosting of the National Union Executive Committee with intent to transfer its funds to the Johnson Club; 2. In rogard to his speech in oue of the caucuses of the Republican members of Congress; 3. In saying that ho hastened to receive the congratulations of Mr Thurlow Weed after reading his Address at the Philadelphia arm-in-arm Conyention; 4. In reporting him present at Albany at the late Cagger-Weed State Convention. We Lave recited these several complaints, in order that our readers may acqoit Mr. Raymond of sy and all the acts or omissions “o charged vpon him. Brief- ly, we add that we hold bim right and our correspond- euts wrong in each of thesc cazes of diserepancy. And now a word as to our correspondents: We have ot a doubt that each of them reported exactly what be had heen told and believed in each of these cases; as with regard to the French Mission, And, as they were rigidly escluded from the caucus in question, we see mot bow they could have done otherwise than to credit the report of Mr, Raymond's remarks therein which some one who was preseut saw fit to give. If there is another way, we shall be hap- Py to accopt and preseribe it. With regard to the alleged call of a Committee, to Mr. R.'s gravitation toward Mr. Weed at a eritical period in his carcer, and his presence at Albany, our correspondents doubtless meant to be correct, but they were too careless. The matters related by them may seem trivial, but it was possible to Lo surely accurate; and they are culpable in that they were not. We shall deal with them for these errors. Let all our correspondents bear in mind that we prefer aceuracy to zest, and that we choose that they miss two important facts rather than make one statement that they may not be able to sustain, That Messre. Raymond and Stanton were rival can- didates for the French Mission was doubtless currently roported at Washington; but that did not warrant the positive averment of this correspondent. We have dismissed several of his predecessors for like errors, and he will have to follow in their footsteps if be cau- not more carefully discriminate botween what may be and what is. We have often been strongly moved to forego all Washington telegraphy, because of just such errors a8 are here réprebended. But we must make one or twe more attempts to improve it before we de- cide to give it up. — e The Republiean Unionists of the IIId District | (Brooklyn) bave bad a very exciting contest for the nomination of a Representative in Congress. The choice has fallen on Simeon B, Chittenden, sn emi- nent and public-spirited merchant. Weo bave believed that Mr. George B. Lincoln, lato Postmaster, would poll more votes, and on that ground proeferred bis pomination, Since the choice has been made, and either Mr. Chittenden or a Copperbead must represont the Distriot in the XLth Congress, we entreat those who preferred anotber to banish all hoart-burnings and do their very utmost to secure the election of Mr, Cbittenden. e —— FIRES. — IN GRANDST.
