The moral gain wust not bo suwiall that will compensate us for the losscs which the"North has ftsolf wuffercd and inflicted on fhe peopie of the Spwth, True, Slavery has been abolished, and the worst state of a free man is no doubt to be preferred to the best condition ie for oue who is a slave. But $he slaves ought not to be m._v gainers by & struggle vast and (errible as this. Suffering ought always to bring good into (he life of uations as of ‘men, and Ged only knows what suffering the men ghat bhave rebelled His justice and His freedom have endured. What has come to them from all this desolation of their fields towos, this slaughter of their brothers and their sous! Their slaves are free, but, alns, the fallen fetters weigh down their own limbs. To-day the late slave-owner of the South ix the most pitiful of slaves. He is tho slave of en ignoble passi t passion is his Godless thirst for power. And this passio more intense when there are no means for grotifyl Tako away the drunkard's bottle nod he goos mad w sharp ervings of unsatisfied desire. Slavery was nothing but the bottle with which the Southern tocracy sdministered to its desire for power, That bottle has been broken aud its con tents have ran oult The question now beforo the conntry Shall we endeavor to refe this aristocracy—shall wo doavor to create ix it an appetite for wholesome drink and food, or shall wo be “magnauimous’ and pandor (o its base desires! The Constitutional amendment upon ch the issue of the Fall clections has been made, says to the North “Let us not inister to appetites which curso the more. the more that they are fed.” ‘Ao South went into tho Kebellion, not for the sake of Slavery, but for the sake of power; power wa the one thing which if eraved. It clung to Slavery because itled to that. 1t cannot be supposed that Southern gentlomen and ladies cherished snch an institution for its own sweet sake. They had eyes to ace its miscrics, they had ears to hear i‘s vie- tims when they shricked under the lash, and they had nerves that quivered at the thought of the enormities tlat always fol- train, But still it was o means of power, and so they cherished it. They would have given it up gladly, if they could have been cortain of tho power without the slave-pen and the lash. We arc now asked to believe in the good faith of the South, when it declarea its acquiescence in the death of Slavery. Wao do believe in it most heartily. For without the Consti- tational amendment tho South 18 gUing to have more power than it bad before the War. Alos! the wasted treasure; a hundrod times, alas ' the wasted hero lives. Hod the South known that, without Slave could have greater power than with, ahe would most y bave swresdered it, and there would have been no war. Alas! the childless and the fatherless! Without the Conatitutional Ameudment the war has made them childless to no purpose; it b them fatherless for naught. But the Constitutional Ame cannot save America. Nothing can save her but the effec working out of the full glory of that genuine democracy which Vin clear dream and solemn vision" 8o long has been the object of her gaze. 1In the dark night of her first rovolution she saw & sudden hfi( about her couch of pain. o sudden glory filling all ber chamber of despair.

The suffrage is one which only the most care Al tudy of the wiscst statesmanship can hope to answor, But there are more objections to it in the City of New-York than in the whole country North and South outsido of its infected at mosphere of social and_political misrule. Whether without somo limitation of the suffrage that princely city which has fallen among thieves, can ever bo recovered from their hold is very problematical. But the question of universal suf- frage 18 one thing and the queation of impartial suffrage is nother. 'This nation cannot stand erect and look into God's face and say it will bo satisticd with anything that does not mean palitical equality. We were commitied to it whon wo wrote it iu the immortal langunge of the Daclaration.

For if the South but knew what blessings stream through the deep channels of equality and brotherhood, it would not rest until these channels bud been hewn throughoat her borders, far and wide. * I will ot let thee go unless thon bicss me,” she would then say o the North, *unless thou bless mo with the blessings of thine own good government.' But the North has tasted these things; it bas scen bow good they are. Therefore, it ought to say to the benighted Soui “1 will not let thee go unless thou dost receive and share with me these bless ings whick God in Bis great merey has given me to use and to extond !’ God grant my friends that it is not too Iate for this thing.

CHARLES DILLON. Mr. Chales Dillon, who commented an engage- ment at the Broadway Theater last evening, in the character of King Lear, lmapreviousty boen kuown to the play goers of this commumy only as the representative of Helphegor. His per- sonation of the latter part ins severul timos warmly 10005 nined and oxtolled in these columpe ; and it will, wo think, be remembered among the best achiovwaonts in drmmnatio art that bave beon witnessed Lers within the memory of this gencration M. Dillon will play Beiphegor again during his present engage. ment at the Broadway Theater ; but we understand his desiga 0 be—and we are glad that ho has formed it—to make himself known to the New-York public in the most important of the great charaeters in Shakespoara. It bas nover beon our good fortune to see him in auy part excepting Bephegor, but bis simplo naturaloess and wonderful mastery of pathos, in the exneting circamatances of the mountobank, have impressed us a0 doeply with the cenyiction that he is o great actor, that we oannot | but anticipate peculiar pleasur and satisfaction rformances. Atall events they canmot Mr. Dillon's profes- sincere devotion to the noble art which he has striven to illustrate, and ations and uoflagging study and labor, particnlars hat career may chance to interest theatrical readers, and the presont is not an inappropriate time forstating them.

He also, at tuis time, coutributed mis. cellaneously to n publications. At thetage of 19 he set off from London, and spent a year in lnrl'lm7 through Great PBritain. Keturning to tho capital, ho appearcd in Hawmlet, and attractod some critical sttention. He was then engaged at ono of tho principal London theaters, as stage manager, leading actor, and wri His succoss thus far, bowever, had failed to satisfy bis ambition. Accordingly ho determined to leave London, and not to return until he had acquired the ut most and the highest professional reputation possible to an etor in tho provinces. His first appearance, in pursuance of this design, was mado at the Theater Koyal in Manchester. Iis sue cess there wua signal and decidod. F) ed ouwnrd, through all the important dom.

Mr. Boucicault's new drama of **The Long Strike” bids fair to hold the stage of the Olym for some time to come. A second view of its represcutation confirms us in the judgment origially expressed—that while ite merit Iy genuine and extraordivary, its defects are very serious. We may add that, cousidering its authorsbip. those defects are sur. prising. Whatever may be Mr. Boncicault's faults as a drama tist, be has nover hitherto split upon the rock of aati climax In “The Long Strike " he not only conducts & good plot to s wealk endiug, but o disappoints exp o i the development of bis principal and most impressive oharacter.

Yet bis play is not wanting in deep study of human nature, or fa deli cate sentiment, or in quiet’ humor, or in beautiful lucidity of style. The first scene in act second, wherelu Keilly, the Trish sailor, renounces bis love for Jane, the conversation between Jane and Mr. Radley, just before the latter is shot, thé second scene of the third act, wherein Jein Starkie iy arrested, and the whole of the companionship of Jane and the old lawser, way b adduced s examples of the superiority of drumatic over theatrical skill.

Mr. Stoddart interprets this nature w . 1t may be as well to remark, by the way, that 8 ‘s performa are aiways worthy of the studious observation of persons who regard acting as an art, and not merely a matter of business. He does nothing careiessly. The fiuits of study,and the evidences of intellect and of ‘geatle sens bility of temperament, are visible in all bis mations, and are notably evident in this one.
