To Irish- Americans the intelligence of this Dublin movement will be cheering. Let our fellow-citizens of Irish na- tionality bear in mind that John Bright's sympathies are all with the party of freedom in this conntry—that heis moved by the samo mspiration which impels that party in its onward carcer—and that every vote cast in favor of equal rights will o to strengthen his bands in prosecuting the good work into which he has thrown himself on bebalf of suffering Ireland. —_— Friends in the rural districts!

Swann must bear the responsibility of deciding, by an appenl to military force, a question which properly belongs to the Courts. There s serious danger of bloodshed in Baltimore, and the Governor is doing nothing to remove it. The Com- missioners, with prudence and moderation, have offered to give the Conservatives Election Judges of their own choice, *but their overtures have been rejected, The party which the Governor leads appears determined to force an issue, regardless of the con- sequences. 'We again urge the Union men of Balti- more to yield, rather than allow the Rebel spirit that rules in New-Orleans to trap them into violence. Better to submit to the tyranny of the Governor than answer it by armed resistance. Gen. Grant, it is understood, does not favor the removal of the Com- missioners, and will not act unless ordered to by the President. THE ANTLRING COUNTY TICKET.

As the Johnsouite speakers and journals continually misrepresent, while they carefully suppress, the Amendment to the Federal Constitution passed by Congress and now before the States for ratification, we print it once more by request, in order that every reader may sce that it is not harsh nor vengeful, and does not disfranchise the Rebels—not even their chief.

Mr. Hepworth Dixon, the English jonrnalist and book-writer, who has been traveling in this country, departed for home last week in a state of health which we can but consider miraculously goodafter the sc- vere attack of leonization to which he was subjected in Philadelphia; for in that town be was not only pub- licly dined and wined, but be was also remorselessly taken to see one of Benjamin West's pictures (in the possession of the unfortunate Mr. Harrison), with which work of art Mr. Hepworth Dixon declared himself **charmed.” Well do we remember this mighty canvas—six Indians upon one side, six Quak- ers upon the other side, witha fresh invoice of season- able dry goods in the middle. There are from eight to ten equare miles (be the same more or less) of pictures by the same artist in England, which Mr. Dison might have seen without the trouble of a sea voyage aud the agonies of nautical nausea; but it was asort of satisfaction, we suppose, to view the pictare of the landing upon the very placo of the landing, and to compare the rather than else wooden “ friends " of Mr. West with their more vivacious descendants. Mr. Hepworth Dicon, it is well known, is the champion of William Penn's moral character against the elanders of Lord Macaulay. That his lordship was substantially wrong n bis general estimato of William Penn's character, personal and political, is still, in spite of Mr. Dixon's elucidations, doubtfal; but he was unquestionably at fault in a few of bis details, and of these errors the most has been made. Lord Macaulay is by no means the first writor who has ventured to doubt the absolute perfection of William Penn, and to maintain that, although an excellent man, he was not without his foibles. That he kept upon good terms with the most wretched of mouarchs will remain a significant fact to those who remember the prond indignation with which George Fox told Oliver Cromwell that he would neither eat of his bread nor drink of his cup, But, talking of bread and cups, let us return to Mr. Dixon's dinner. Over this banquet Mr. Morton MeMichael presided, and very severely Mr. MeM. must have tried Mr, Dixon's modesty, for he told that gentleman to his facg that his ** knowledge” was * comprehensive and accurate” — that his “powers of observation” were ‘“‘acute and vigorous”—that he was very strong in his ** discrimination, illustration, descrip- tion and narrative,” and as for his ‘style,” it was like “a fincly-polished Dblade of damask steel, bright, and keen, and incisive.” Mr. McM. told off Mr. Dison's virtues as a practical phrenologist tells off a subject’s bumps. He was also likened to Ithuriel, and his pen to the spear of Ithuriel, whereas, according to our private informa- tion, Mr. Divon uses an extra-fine Joseph Gillott, No. 303, and ot in the least like a spear. Mr. McM. called this ** a trenchant weapon.” All we have to say is, that s gross of them, a perfect little armory, may be bought for an inconsiderable sum of money by any proudly ambitious gentleman desirous of set- ting up s an Ithuriel. In nply to these highly com- plimentary observations, the * slightly embarrassed Mr. Dixon made o speech which The Philadelphia Press tells us was ** quite witty,” which we must say strikes us as damnably faint praise. The blushing guest ended by inviting the whole company to dine with him at his residenco in Yorkshire, England, upon a day uncertain, and very much we hope they will enjoy the return dinner, when they get it. Bt if Mr. Dixon was the lion of the evening, it is pleasing to know that he was not, so to speak, z00- logically isolated, for, according to the report before s, there were there, eating their dinners, and making their speeches, and looking hard at Mr. Dixon that they might know bim if they should meet him again, a great number of lesser lions, not of the Lybian but of the Philadelphia breed. There was Dr. Shelton Mackenzie, who *‘never,” according to The Press, « appeared in a more brilliant vein"'—the “‘man of true genius” that he is' There was Mr. Boker, who for some reason or other is called ** the execllent George" —a familiarly reverential style of appellation which reminds us of ** O Rare Ben, written a number of plays, Then comes Mr. Gillingham Fell, who was ** eloquent and jost "—a compound of Demosthenes and Aristides, Then Mr. John Jay Smith of Germantown, who is not reported because it wonld be * trenching on tamily privacy " to do o, which seems a little odd after the liberties taken with Mr. Bayard Taylor's name, and with the names of several other gentlemen pre Austin Alibone, **the immortalizer of autbors,” and Mr. Joseph Harmon, ** whose collection of pictures, containing West's celebrated one of Penn's Landing, Mr. Dixon had been charmed with in the morning.” Dr. B. Coates read an ““excellent " ode, “To the Defender of Penn,” but before he did so Mr. Daniel Dougherty * coneluded this charming evening with it g0 courted and admired at every gay and fostive scene.” Mr. D, is apparently such a tremendous fel- low that we must quote at length what is said of him. “There are those who knew Dougherty ouly as the eloquent wer, or the powerful defender nt the bar of justic re those who have thought of him Intely acarce otherwise than us the eloquent ortor arguing the ense of an nggrieved nation befo stening electors. But his wlory i s well w hind our sereen, saw him on evening, th of infinite wit and exccllent fancy. the time that he was forced to ‘come out’ there was further. One inccssant roar of laughter, by something to continne it, concluded o3 delightful an on, we suspect, as Mr. Hepworth Dixon has ever enjoyed, or ever pn either side of the Atlantie.” is is really like the langhter of the gods in a high state of nectar. If Mr. H. D. didn’t enjoy it ho deserves never to be invited to a private dinner pub licly to be reported again. *‘Sad boys!' sad boy We fear William Penn would bave rapped on the gleaming mahogany, if his spirit could have been suc- cessfully invoked. We leave this jolly company over their cups, in which we trust no headache lurked; and conclude our notice by condoling with all these gen- tlemen who find themselyes so decidedly advertised, oxoepting always Dr. Shelton Mackenzie, who is not probably in the least angry, being **a man of trae geniuy,” and Mr. Dan. Dougherty, who no doubt laughs over these laurels as a joke almost as good as his own. —_——— e Mr. James Casey, an Irishman of this City, recently wrote a private letter to a friend, who could not nn- derstand why he should vote against the Democratic candidates, which has found its way into print. Mr. Casey says that for twenty years he has ‘‘ marched up to the polls to vote the regular Democratic ticket at every election. Iwas & poor man when I began it, and I'm no better off for supporting the Demo- cratio party.” Much worse off, Mr. Casey, we aro sure; and it is well you have discovered that you will never get richer by supporting the tax-making and Treasury-plundering * Ring.” We quote the conclu- sion of the letter: g “Ilive in & tenement bouse, Thomas, and [ work harl to Koep sy family together ; but year by year the landlond raises on me, and he says it's the Oify Bozes, The Alderman of my ward s 8 rut, and you know, Thomas, all this City is in ands; but never a step has any Alderman or e ooy down b Pl Lol il or n his rent or taxes.

Can the laborers and mechanics of this overtaxed city never bo brought to realize their trae position, a5 the parties chiefly ruined and robbed by the nction of this political conspiracy which we call the *‘ Ring 1™ Tuerease the taxes by frauds in all our local depart- ments, and it is not the wealthy property-Lolders who bave to suffer. They will increase the burdens of the suffering tenants, and every poor man will that the few rooms which he occupies must pay more and more every year, owing to the excessive taxation which results from the jobbing and misconduct of the ** Ring." Some property-holders—the Rooscvelt family in particular—have adopted a sensible way of Dringing this matter home to the minds of their ten- ants. Every receipt for rent has a printed formula on its face, showing how much is for actual rent and how muchisthe result cfour local taxation, with also & further statement exhibiting how much less tho total rontal would be under the low taxes ten years ago, when the City was honestly governed. Every prop- erty-holder in New-York should issue similar receipts a3 the best campaign document that could be devised for bringing their sufferings under the * Ring” home to the hearts and pockets of the poo IS IT THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE? T3 it the will of the people of the City of New-York that the rule of the half-dozen of men who own and run the Tammany and Mozart *“machines” shall en- dure forever? Tty appears, notwithstanding, that in making up the tickets which our people are expected to elect under this system, that the people themselves have no veice. Every member of the * Ring” isan old politician, who seems to have but three objects in life: First, to multiply on himself, his brothers-in- law, his cousins, and all his adherents, an immeose variety of sinecure offices; secondly, to perpetuate himself in this unholy power in continua- tion and coalition with others of a like stamp in the same pursuit; thirdly, by every act of chicanery, fraud, altered contracts, and extor- tionate prices allowed to special fnends, and vast pay- ments made for work neverdone, deplete the treasury and increase the burdens of the suffering poor. Shall the erime of this ruinous system continue, and shall it be perpetuated as an Institution, or will the independ- ent manhood of all classes, arraying itself under the banner of Reform, irrespective of party, unite next Tuesday in one grand effort for the overthrow of the “ Ring" by the election of the ticket of John Sedg- wick, James M. Smith, Gen. Cbarles G. Halpine, and Gon. Alexander Shaler? VERACIOUS NEWSPAPER CORRESPONDENTS Perhaps ng class of men did more during our civil war to mislead the English people as to the state of things in this country, and to encourage that portion of the British press whose sympathics were with the cause of Secession, than the mewspaper correspond- ents in America of two or three of the principal Lon- don journals. The war i3 over; the falsehoods are exploded; the prophesies have been falsified—all of them: but still the creatures are at their *‘dirty work,” trying to give currency and weight to the most monstrous lies and the most absurd and im- probable tales about matters in this country, Here s a specimen of the handiwork of one of these veracious chroniclers—* our own correspondetit " of The London Telegraph "—whose letters are dated from New-York: I should eall your attention to a fact which creates some apprelieusion here, namely, that the negroes are arming, form ing in n ents, and beiig drilled nightly—here, in this city, T wean. | Ahcy were very quict and secret in their iret meetiny but somehow the movement became known, and now they attend to the subj more openly. Tt is decmed rather o irs, this ussembling of the blacks, and it at the elcetion time they may be ealled upon to play an unpleasant part in the Ynu(?lmmr police are Watehing the negroes narrowly; but the blacks have the conn tenance of the Loyal Leaguers, they are sure of being un- d until, through some overt act, they shall incur the dis- wre of the masses ; and then o strugglé will doubtless take many lives be lost on both .f s, The New Orleans W a3 8 warsing to the Radi- al advisers of ogroes; but they are incapable of profiting by expericoee, or are determined to arouse the people fo some drcadful ncts through the exeitement attendant upon the violence which must ensue the moment toe blacks come in contuct with the people. 1 am assurcd that thronghout the North and West—and, in fact, in many of citics—the negroes have been armed and organ- hat, in ease of another civil war, they are to be let loose st oll opposers of Radical rule.

Decidedly the prospeets of the future of this nation are the reverse of promising, all the more since the peo- ple of uth are fast becoming disgusted, and to all ap- prorance are to be driven to another war.” Liars ought not only to have good memories; they need to possess arespectable measure of the construetive faculty by means of which an air of verisimilitude is imparted to the cmanations of a lively fancy. ** Our own correspondent” of The Telegraph is evidently de- ficient in this faculty, otherwise he wounld never have committed the blunder of representing the conspira- tors to whom he alludes as attending *‘ more opouly” to their military preparations after the * movement” in which they were engaged * became known,” and the parties had consequently fallen under the special surveillacce of the police. Yet, it is from such au- thorities as this correspondent that a large portion of the British public derive their information of the state of parties and the movement of polities in America! What wonder is it that the disquisitions of the En- glish press on American matters are generally so en- lightened and so profound ! e ture from the adily e and it'is t regretted that SQUARE LYING. The Middlctowen Mercury Extra, just scattored broad- cast over Orange and Sullivan Counties, filled with detraction of Gen. Crares H. Vax WYCK, contains A SONG FOR THE ‘‘SOLDIER BOYS." Air—"Rosin the Bow.” Come all ye braye boys of the Union, We've something o tell you that's true, What Congress has voted the nigger, And what they have voted for you.

This villainous falsehood that ** Congress has voted the nigger” soldiers $300 each, and the Whites only $50, never had the faintest shadow of foundation or excuse; yet The World, though long since shamed into silence respecting it, has never retracted it; and {ts echoes in the rural districts still keep it afloat, a3 we sce. Can such persistent, shameless falschood prosper? Auswer at the polls! THE HON. EDMUND L. PITTS. The Hon, Edmund L. Pitts of Orleans County bas consented to serve another term in the Legislature. The course of Mr. Pitts ipthe Assemdly last Winter was s0 upright, honorable and energetic, and he was 80 fervent in his advoeacy of the reform measpres for our city, that our good people here looked to him and a few like him for protection againstthe many iniquit- ous schemes of corrupt city officials, The tax-payers on this island will rejoiceto see Mr. Pitts again in the Legislative halls at Albany. It should bring the blush of shame to the cheek of our people to kiow that there was not a single member of the Assembly from this city in whose hands the friends of reform folt that they could safely trust the great intercsts committed to their care. We thauk our {riends in Orleans County for sending to Albany such a man as Mr. Pitts, and wo trust that on next Tuesday he will receive a majority that will prove that his services are as appreciated in Orleany County as in New-York City. EpMuxp J. PorTeR is the Republican-Union can- didate for Surrogate of Westchester County. Heis every vote ! Apipox B, CmiTTENDEN having beeu falsely decused of secking to reduce the compensation of mefchauty’ clerks, has put his beel on the vile calumny, "obody pretends to uphold it. One who was formerly in bis employment as clerk adds the following tostimony : it , Chittenden's in the iy B YT and provisions snd other price to a fea . and well do L remember Bis words: ‘I appreciate the diffical, disposed to meet it in a liberal e Lo e e ety nesded it "5 —An employer who thus acts can be trusted to serve the public faithfully aud worthily. We trust that the voters of Mr. Chittenden’s district will show that they think so. Let there be no trading. The Democrats ats doing their best to trade off votes for Congressmen for votos for Fenton, but we hope there are few Republicang .who can be gulled into the exchange. Wo have already said that it is pure folly to buy what we don's want, Our delegation to Congress is sure to be elected, and the Republican who, on sny pretense, fails to vote the State Ticket is guilty of giving aid and comfort to the enemy, Do our friends remembee’ the story of the Farmer and the EIf? The twain made a bargain to farm a field on shares, and the EIf agreed that the first year he should have all the crop that grew Lelow the surface of the ground. The cunning farmer planted corn, and when the unlucky EIf complained of the harvest, * Well,” said tha farmer, ** I want to be fair; next year you shall bave all that grows above the ground.” ‘‘Agreed!" answered the EIf, and the Farmer planted potatoes.’ The woral is plain— Let there be no trading, or you will fare as badly as the EIf. The Republican County Committee of Erio County, in this State, bavo published an interesting and valu- able table of votes in every ward and town of the county for the last ten years, exhibiting the votes cast for the Republican, American (Know-Nothing) aod' Democratic parties in each of those years, the Repub- lican or Democratic majority in 1864, and the number, ot native and naturalized voters in 1865. Added to the table are “evident inferences,” revealing somd curions facts; for instance, that the Republicans have gained fastest in the city (Buffalo) where they have extinguished 1,500 majority against them, while the Democrats have somewhat gained in the country. The Republicans have gained rapidly where natural- ized voters most abound, while the Democrats have gained the chief share of the American or Know- Nothing vote. Inseveral wards of Buffalo the Dem- ocratic vote in 1364 shows an increase altogether ab- normal, and about covering the majority of Humphrey for Congress. The table is a model which deserves to be imitated by every Republican County Committeo in the United States. Tables like this cannot fail to, diffuse political and statistical information that is much needed. Mr. Tsaac Bell is one of the Commissioners of Charities and Correction appointed by Matthew T. Brennan, Controller of this city. Mr. Bell has been very industriously employed during the past two weeks in soliciting baokers and others to sign a papee which begs the said Matthew T. to gratify his ad. mirers, the bankers aforesaid, by permitting his name to be used as a candidate for reélection in December next. We shall await with some impatience the public announcement of the names of those capitalists who aro so inconsidergte and crucl as to insist that Brennan shall sacrifice his interests by remaining in office for another four years. They ought net to do it. We doubt, howcver, whether the collection of autographs will equal the famons list of respectablos who signed a similar paper in behalf of the Hon. Fere nando Wood, some years ago. Certain Copperhead journ: re laboring very hard to make the public believe that Gov. FENTON is re« sponsible for the present obstruction to travel in Broad- way, between Ann and Fulton-sts. Gov. FExTOX never signed a bill giving the Railroad Company any such power, and where they get their anthority to do 50 is more than we can say. It is the duty of the municipal authoritios to see that travel on the publio thoroughfares is not interfered with; but so long as the odium of the present obstraction can be used foe political capital the interests of the people can go to the winds. What dees the **Ring” care for the tray: elers on Broadway if a vote can be gained for Hofl+ man? ——————— We are assured that an attempt will be made to corrupt some of the Inspectors and Canvassersof the 4th, 6th and 14th Wards of our City, and thus either pour in or count out & flood of illegal votes for Hoff- man and * the Ring.” We don't believe this can ba done; but it will doubtless be attempted. The piles of money which the Tammany managers have sweated out of John Morrissey, the Custom-House, &e., &o., canmot be used honestly. It forms an im- mense corruption fund, and as such will be employed. Republican-Unionists ! beware ! The World has a dastardly, skulking persova! as- sault on Gov. FexTON, which it took care to with« hold to the very eveof election, after Gov. F. had gone home to Chautauqua. The people will auswer it at the polls! The Union State, County and Congress tickets each bear the names of soldiers who fought gallantly ta preserve the Union, while not one such is found on the regular Tammany tickets. How can soldiers or pat- riots yote for these in preference to the tickets which display the names of Woo) Hauyoxp, Hat- PINE, SHALER, and CANNON ! % e FREpRRICK T. PARsoN is the Republican-Union candidate for Assembly in the Vth District of Brook- Iyn, composed of the VIIth and XXth Wards. So says the General Committee of Kings County: so says The Union. We have heard both sides, and feel confident that Mr. Parson is the stronger candidate, and that all votes given to Mr. Giberson will be thrown away. ‘We urgo all who wish to send 8 Re- - publican from that District to vote for Mr. Parson. Pay no nlenlionso Last Cards.” At the late election in Tows, a telegram, purporting to emanat® from & Republican newspaper office, flew all over tho VIth Congress District on Election dew»announciog the sudden death of the Hon. A. W. Hubbard, Ke- publican Member of Congress and candidate for re- election. Tt deceived a few and perplexed many, but not enough to defeat him. Johnson swore over and over that he would make treason odious. He did it by joining the Rebels. — The employés of Mr. Fernando Wood have, a8 it ap- pears, concerted a trick with intent to defeat Gen, Hal- pine for Register and elect the Tamwany Rivg cavdidate, MeCool, Election tickets are to be scattered through all the Irish dis'ricts, with the following printed thercon: “For Register, Miles O'Reilly.” As Gen. Halpine is even better known by his literary nom de guerre than other- wise, this trick has & lively plausibility, against which we interpose & timely caution, Irish citizens who wish 10 vote for ** Miles O'Reilly” will take care to voto no othet ticket than that which contains: * For Register, Gete Charles G.
