One of the semi-oflicial papers of Paris main- tains that the Goverument of France has made an arrangement with that of Turkey for the preservation of the integrity of the Turkish Empire. The convention, if concluded, has about the same chances of success as the oceu- pations of Mexico and Rome. ) We recei vin San Francisco, the first defi- nite information concerning the new Tycoon of Japan. Heis zeported to bo a Prince of uncounnon intelligence, and to be decided in favor of carrying out the treaties. The com- ial intercourso of Japan with foreign coun- now rapidly increasing and not likely ffer another interruptic mel tries to sul The Duke of Augustenburg has ceded to Prussia his claims to the Duchies of Schleswig and Holstein, The Grand Duke of Oldenburg, the other claimant, having made the same ces- sion some time ago, Prussin now holds the Duchies by virtue of treaty as well as of con- quest. The claims of the Elector of dlesse- Cassel and of the Duke of Nassau to their former dominions had previously been bought off in the same manner. As we read the doings of the House Caucus | on Saturday night, Cengress has determined not to allow its proceedings to be interrupted and its time absorbed by an attempted im- peachment of the President, until at least a majority of tho *House shall have deliberately. adjndged such an extreme measure necessary ; and it has not yet so adiudged it. 'We need not y that this decision is in full accord with our own convictions, RUCTION AT HAND. We note with sati tion the gathering at Washington of deputations from several Southern States representing diverse phases of opinion the Seuth. It can hardly be a year | since The Times uwrg®l us to say why so loyal ! and true a Unionist as Col. J. M. Johnson of Arkansas“should not be admitted by the Houso | to the geat whereto {lie been unguestion- ably chosen. We now see that Col. Johnson is | in Washington to urg | the fire-tried Union admit representatives from that State until she shall have undergone a tion. And we trust—nay, we are sure—that he and his colleagues will be heard with profound attention. 8o, we doubt not, will that delega- @ _RECON sas, who ang a decided majority of the White, but perhapa not of the whole people of that | State. We trust the rival parties of every Southern Washington. Let all have a fair hearing; but main. If the rival delegations could econfer with each other and agree as to the bases of Reconstruction, they would signally facilitato the action of Congress. And why shonld they not at least try to agree? They are fated to be fellow-citizens, neighbors, often kinsmen; even if they desire to remain at war, that luxury is imperatively denied them. Will not the rival delegations front Arkansas sef the ox- celleiit example of courteously conferring and trying to agree on a plan of reconstruction to be jointly submitted to Congress? Surely, the effort, if made in the right, spirit, must be pro- ductive of good. —Congress ought goon to indicate to the unrep- rescnted States precisely what they must do, It will not do to let the session wear away with- out this, If any State shall not be ecalled when the next House assembles for organiza- tion, it should be clearly and generally known why it is not, and that the fault is its own. Let there be light! Gen. Grant is reported as having expressed, at Gov. Seward's dinner party on Saturday evening, his conviction that, if the Southern States should adopt the pending Constitutional Amendment, tfi.y would be promptly restored, and no further conditions imposed. We do not 80 understand Congress, If those States had promptly and heartily ratified that Amend- ment, we believe a majority would have felt morally bound to admit them thereupon. We do not understand that the Johnson organiza- tions claiming to be States which bave re- jeeted the Amendment—especially if, as in the case of Texas, they have treated it with marked indignity—should they now conclude to ratify it rather than take the chance of deing worse, would be regarded by a majority of either House as having established any right to recognition as legitimate by Congress. But, whatever the faft may be, Congress should promptly and unequivocally indicate it. For our own part, and without presuming in any manner to speak for others, we must say that the ratification of this Amendment by any State would form a very inadequate and im- perfect basis of Reconmstruction. The vital matter, in our view, is security to every indi- vidual, however humble and despised, in his essential rights of person and property. Any Reconstruction which does not guarantee the ‘Whites who have been Rebels against futare arrests, arraignments, scizures, confiseations, because of their part in the Rebellion, and does not secure the Blacks against such abuse, spoliation, enslavement, and butchery, as many of them have experienced within the past year, will searcely deserve its sonorons title.

We do not judge that it can or cannot be achieved under the present State organizations; but we fervently wish it might be; for time is precious. And, if Con- gress, on full view of the facts, shall deem it necessary to set these organizations aside, we entreat that its action be prompt and vigorous, Let justice to aM De insisted on at all events; but let the least possible time be spent in se- curing it. Delays are dangerous, and the future uneertain, Let us be wise and generous, while brave and confident, Ta i 1; but dare not The last Legislafure of our State, at the so- licitation of many of the best citizens of this metropolis, passed an act regulating the sale of Intoxicating’ Drinks in this City, Kings, and Richmond Counties. By this act, the licensing of venders of the beverages in question was confided to the Board of Health, whereof the Police Commissioners form a part. The sale of such beverages is forbidden on Sunday and between midnight and daylight of other days. None who will not conform to these and other wholesome restrictions are to be allowed to sell at all; and the Police is empowered to stop the sale of liquors by those who are un- licensed. In short, the act is another attempt, not to prohibit the sale of Intoxicating Drinks, but to render the Lignor Traffic defianf than hitherto of the dictates of mo- rality and decency. At once the cry was set up that 1t was un- constitutional ! and the lower stratum of judges, who owe their position to our innumerable grog-shops, and hope to retain it by earning their continued favor, gave opinions accord- ingly. Many hundreds of injunctions were granted by thesp libels on the judicial station, and the enforcement of the restraining sections of the act thereby obstructed. TIts partial en- forcement for a few weeks largely diminished the aggr o of Sunday debauchery and erime in our city and Brooklyn; but the grog-shop judges reopened the floodgates of riot and rowdyism, and the desolating torrent has since rushed and ared at will. The Board of Fxcise, being estopped by injunctions fgom enfoicing the law against many of the worst offenders, concluded to await the action of the higher conrts, That action has at length been completely | had. By unanimous decisions of the Supreme Court (I1d District) and Court of Appeals, tho law is adjndged constitutional in letter and McCunn injunctions are blown to the winds; the Boards of Excise and of Police virtually instructed to go on and enforce the law, And | they have accordingly given notice that they heneeforth will enforce it, and that rum-sellers and law-breakers must tuke due notice and govern themselves accordingly. Sunday Mereury—which aspires to the championship of the Liguor interest—now gives that the Courts are to be defied as the ure has been—that the Rum Traflic is legal regnlation or control.

Let us efficiently protect our manufactures, and our agriculiure will in- evitably be enriched to that extent. In other words, we shall be sure of what ouragricul- tarists and manufacturers nved alike—a home market for raw produce. This we cannot have without especial protection of the industrial in- terests which are to draw from American fields their supplics, We propose to illustraic (his point. What sort of a foreign market have our griculturists had dn time past? Let us see. Taking the years since 1843 in groups, which may be fairly made, the average value of all breadstuffs and provisions exported to all for- eign countries runs thue: For the three years 1844-6, $20,500,000 per annum; in the year of the Irish famine, 1847, $68,750,000; in the fol- lowing six years, $30,500,080; in 1854-5 to 1838, during the Crimean war and disturbances in British India, $61,500,000; in the year 1850, k2 ,000; and in 1860, 45,000,000. Here wo have a range of foreign demand within the first three years mentioned, from £20,000,000 to $08,000,000 worth of our farmers’ products; from this period, for six years, down {0 $80,000,000, and up in the next year, 1854, to £66,000,000; rising thence in 1856 to 77,000,000, and dropping in 1859 to $38,000,000. Can any Dbusiness stand and prosper whose dependence is upon a market so unstable as this, and with prices fluctuating as widely and as wildly ? But this is not all; the total sales of our bread- stuffs and provisions in foreign markets have never exceeded, even in famine years and war times, four per cent of our product, and gen- erally fall under three per cent. The question before us, however, narrows this statement still more. The non-manufac- turing countries, lying in latitudes north and south of us, in our fiscal year 1850-60 took 60 per cent of all our agricultural ex- ports, except leaf tobacco and cotton. This six-tenths of our export trade we have by the natural law of reciprocal exchanges. They took 80 per cent of our exported manufactures, or £32,000,000 worth, along with $60,000,000 of the farm products of our temperate clime, and gave us, in exchange, sugar, guano, spices, @ye- stuffs, fruits, coarse wool, tea, coffee, tropical woods, gums, medicines, hides, grapes, and all the foreign specie we received that year except $147,187 only. The year 1850-00 is the fairest for the argu- ment, and the most favorable for our oppo- nents, which can be found in the last fifty years of our commercial experience; and, as a farmers’ question, excluding the Southern plant- ing interest, it shows that of their total ex- ports, tobacco excepted, amounting to $47,325.- 000, the manufacturing nations took but £19,- | 250,000, sending to us £200,000,000 of manufac- | tures, the difference being paid by us in cot- ton, tobacco and spe The woolen, cotton, hemp, iron, and steel, silk, and flax manufac- tures, imported in that year, and retained for consumption, amounted to $124,250,000; the ready made clothing to $2,000,000; salt and coal, £2,000,000; total of these articles, $128,- 000,000, from countries which took in the same year, of all our products, other than cotton, $30,325,000, and of our specie $50,500,0001 Is this a commerce for which we may wisely close our own factories, and drive all our capi- tal and enterprise into the single pursuit of raising raw produce to be sold dbroad, when it will sell there, and at such prices as the mar- kets, which we shall erowd, may afford ¥ The trader who has a stubborn notion that all national profit and growth of wealth comes necessarlly from foreign commerce—that the United States could no more grow rich by do- mestic exchange of commodities and services than two boys could make five dollars apiece by swapping their jackets, and, of course, that the globe called the earth will never thrive generally until it establishes commerce with the moon or other outlying prov- inces of the solar system—-such a thinker will ask, do you mean to deery all forcign trade? Our an s, no. We .only mean to expose the absurdity of an unnatural and mischievons trade which displaces our own industry, throwing half the productive force of the country first into idleness, at an actual loss of more than double the money value of all our imports at their highest figure, and after- ward dragging down the prosperity of our farpers by overstocking the market and lessen- ing prices, until scarcely a erop in the far West or North-West will pay its own expenses to the ports to which it mus’ travel. We wonld foster by all means the supple- mentary trade of kindreds and climates made interdependent by the laws of nature, and with equal zeal and earnestness resist the diversion of national commerco from its true and useful channels, under the delusion that nominal cheapness of market price settles the whole ques- tion of profit and loss. Bezides, the enslaved dependence upon foreign consumption, with all its uncertainties of demand and unsteadiness of yalue, the simple fact.that the nation which secks to do all our skilled work for us never in the average of years took more than $15,000,000 out of our $1,500,000,000 worth of farm products, or about 57 cents worth per head of her popu- lation, shows plainly how ecentemptible their custom is. for our products, and should open our eyes to the fact that we can have a market steady and sure for twice this amount by in- ducing one blacksmith, carpenter, and tailor, with their families} to settle in each township in the United States. All we have to do to effect this desirable improvement in our cus- tomers is to decide that our irom, steel, cloth, cutlery, calico, dolls, toys, and jewelry, shall be made on this side of the Atlantic—to say that the laborer himself shall come, ifStead of his products, and then we shall have a market in every such immigrant for $100 here, instead of a little over half a dollar there. The inferences from these and kindred facts apply to the trade of every region of country, without respect to political boundaries; ‘or it is distance upon which the policy, with . profit and loss, turns, For example: The . neral ratio of railroads to population in the whole United States in January, 1861, wus one wile of road to every 1,000 persons. Massachusetts had & mile of track to every 967 of her popula- tion; but Georgia, behind Massachusetts in everything ¢lse, exceeded 284 per cent in the proportion of railiond to vepulation. To ac- . manufactures, she bad one mile of track to every 3 of lier population. Compare the wealth and prosperity of these two States, and the inference is plain that profit is in the ad- verse ratio to transportation; or, the nearer ‘the market, the greater the gain, A NEW PHASE OF THE DEMOCRATIC MOVE- MENT IN ENGLAND. The revival of the spirit of democracy in England, of which the agitation in , favor of Parliamentary Reform and Manhood Suffrage presents the most noticeable illustration, is marked by movements of a non-political char- ytfir, which cannot fail to exert a powerful in- uence either for good or evil upon the future life of the nation. The -complexion of the event will depend largely on the spirit in which the governing and wealthy [classes meet the demguds of the people. Our London correspondent, in his admir- able letter, which we publish this morning, deals at some length with a phase of the strug- gle now going on in England between democ- racy and aristocracy, which has not hitherto received the attention its importance demands. If merit is beginning to assert its claims against privilege, labor is likewise beginning to mise its voice against the tyranny of capital in alliance - with aristocracy. This protest has found embodiment, and silent but powerful expression, in the Trades Unions, now spread like a net-work over the kingdom. It scems, however, that these societies, with an unwise and short-sighted zeal, have been push- ing matters too far. In striving to obtain Ldeliverance for the workingmen from one tyranny, they are in effect creating another. The natural. result has been a reaction; and now we hear of a movement in opposition to them, the watchword of the new organizations being Freedom of Labor. But this principle is perfectly consistent with the uncompromising assertion of the rights of la- bor, and these, we cannot for the moment imagine, the counter movement will have the effecct of ignoring or throwing in the background. Our correspondent, it will seen, has no apprebension of such & result. While rejoicing, for obvidms reasons, at the opposition that has been started to the Trades Unions, he is convinced that " readjust- ment of the relations between ecapital and labor must take place, to the advantage of the British workman and the benefit of the whole nation. We agree with him entirely, and we need hardly say we sympathize most cordially with those in the old country who are laboring to accomplish the liberation of the workingman from the thealdom in which he has so long Dbeen held, and for his elevation socially and otherwise, Happily for this country, what our correspond- ent calls the “ New Gospel of Industry” is no evangel to the Americans. With us all honest” work is honorable, and steady industry is certain of meeting its reward, It is not simply that ours is & new country, presenting in its wide- gpread territory and immense resources every inducement and encouragement to the industri- ously inclined—although this consideration must necessarily form an important element in any comparison instituted between Great Britain and America; but it is that the rights of labor, the honorableness of industry, lie at the very root of our whole system, political and social. Even here, however, there is room for a more salutary application of the great prin- ciple involved in “the gospel of indus- try"—viz.: that the toiler, the producer, shall have a fair share of the profits arising from the labor of Lis hands or his head. In this matter of honor to industry and reward to labor we have set an example to the world. We are not going to let other nations better that example to our shame. ‘The industrial partnerships to which our cor- respondent alludes we regard as one of the most hopeful signs of the times—as one of the most enconraging evidences of progress in the right direction. Such associations are caleu- lated to work a complete revolution in indus- trial enterprise, and to produce the most beneficial effects on society at large. When they shall have become general, the world will enter upon a pew era of illimitable prosperity. e PERSONAL. irsah oy Miss Anna E.

Glenni W, Schofield of Pennsylvania occupied the chair, and Ignatins Don. nelly of Minnesota acted as secretary. The session’ lasted over two bours and its proceedings were highly exciting. The subject nnder consideration was as to the propriety of Comgress impeaching President Johnson. A good deal having previously been saidd 5 to the feclings and ideas of the Republican mem. bers on the question of impeaclmaent, the cavcas offered a wide scope for members to put themielves on record before the people. Mr. Spalding of Ohio led off by offering the following resolution: 3 v M. Spalding accompanied this resolution with & few remarks, taking strong ground against fmpeach- ment, and defending Andrew Johnson from'the more serions charges of traitor and wsurper. Spalding, since his reeent reélection, has been very conserva- tive, and his remarks surprised no one. Mr. Ashloy of Olio moved to strike out the words, “That no movement looking toward the impeachment of the President should be made,” and insert in lien thersst the words, “That no articles of impeachment of the President shall ‘be ordered.” This wad adopted by a vote of 31 Yeas to 20 Nays. This leaves the way clear for all resolutionsof inquiry necessary for impeachment to be introduced into the House withont first going before a canens, Mr. Ashe ley took ground in favor of immediate investigation, He said grave charges were constantly made against the official conduct of Mr. Johne son, and he considered it a high moral duty he owed to his constitaents that the matter should be settled at once, He wanted every wan of his pdrty to act fairly and openly and help dispose of the mat. ter. Mr. Stevens of Pennsylvania followed, indors- ing the semtiments of Mr, Ashley, but did not agree with him that the matter should first be determined on in caucus. He said caucuses weve generally planned for weak-kneed and designing and knavish members to Lide their defection and treachery from their constituents; he therefore moved to lay the whole matter on the falle, and if articles of impeachment were introduced into the House, let each man take his stand openly and fairly before the country. This motion was defeated by o vote of 20 Yeas to 83 Nays—Schenck, Garfield, Bingham and others, who hitherto have been extreme Radicals, taking conservative ground and voting in the negative. Mr. Stevens mado the remark that the vacant United States Judgeship in Northiern Ohio had made nearly the whole Obio delegation “rotten,” and, until Mr. Johnson filled the vacancy, caucuses were necessary for political tricksters to hide up their evil doings, There sprung up a warm debate between Messrs. Stevens, Dingbam and others on the legal questions involved in the proposed impeachment. The points raised were: ‘Whether an impeachment_could be partly tried by the Senate of the XXXIXfh Congress; also, whether the House of Representatives of the XXXIXth Congress could prefer articles of impeachment ‘on which the President could be tried by the Scoate of the XLth Congress, or whether, shonld arti- cles of impeachment be now preferred, and the trial of them not concluded at the expiration of the present Congress, they wonld have to be renewed in the XLth Congress. Mr. Stevens of Pennsylvania took the ground that the Senate did not expire with the Congress on the 4th of March next, it being & perpetual body. Mr. Bingham of Ohio held different opinions, arguing that as one- third of the present Senators would go out on the éth of Maxch the President could not afterward continue o be tried by a Senate composed of one-third new members on articles partially tried by the preceding Senate. Mr. Stevens thought there would be ample time in this Congress to do whatever was to be done; he was not, however, in favor of hastening & matter of this kind too rapidly; he was willing to afford aa opportunity for members of Congress to give due consideration to the measure proposed; he believed that it ought to be done, but was not willing to go into it unless it conld be done thoroughly and cer- tainly. The debate between Stevens and Bingham illustrated the saying, “ When Greek meets Greek,” &e. Bingham in his remarks leaned strongly to Johnsonism, and spoko in his usual irritable, impul- sive, and highly seasoned style, Stevens met all Bingham's eulogies ~of” Johnson, and | replied in terms bitter and severe in the extreme. Stevens's strictures on Johnsonized Radicals again brought out Judge Spalding, who once more depre- cated all movements looking to the impeachment of the President, and defended himself agsinst the charge of being a Johnson man. Mr. Spalding op- posed the proposed action very earnestly; he did not believe that any good would result from it. Mr. Higby of California thought it the most momentous question that had been prosentedfor the considera- tion of the members of this Co , and objected to any hasty action. Mr. Washburne of Illinois did not think that impeachment Was possible, and while he believed that the President had done mamy things seriously objectionable, ho thought that the proposi- tion for his impeac! it should be referred to ene of the standing Committees, in order that it sheuld be judiciously and dispassionately considered Defore being presented for the formal action of the House. Mr. Boutwell of Massachusetts supported the propo- sition of Mr. Ashley ; he thought the work should be commenced by the present Congress. Other mem- bers spoke pro and con. The resolution of Judge Spalding, as amended by Mr. Ashley and Mr. Wash- burne, was finally adopted, not by a unaninous vote, however, The resolution, as passed, readsas follows : Resolved, That articles of impeachment of the President shall not be ordered at any time without the. of a majority of the Republican members who may att acaucus cailed for that p , and that all tions. Jooking to the impeachment of the President shall first bo considered and reported npon by the Comiitee on the Judiclary. Mr. Ashley will introduce his resolution asking for inquiry into the charges against Mr. Johnson's offi- cial conduct as President, It will bo referred to the Judiciary Committee at omce. . The Senate was not in session on Saturday. The Touse was in session for the purpose of speech-mak- ing only. Judge Spalding of the Cleveland District of Ohio made aspeech on restoration. His remarks broughit out Messrs. Stevens, Maynard, and Wash- burne of Illinois, who engaged in a very spirited debate, and some very severe personalities were in- dulged in. Spalding took conservative ground, as usual, and Stevens charged Lim with treachery. It scems that Judge Spalding, jnst before {he nominating Convention met in his District last Summer, went to Stevens and told him that he (Spalding) was charged at home with being a semi- Johnson man and was in danger of being defeated for & renomination; he said the only thing that could save him wonld be a letter from Stevens tothe nomi- nating Conveation indorsing him (Spalding) as o sound and good Radical. Stevens Spalding had voted port it by the last of the un entirely new bill. It
