Wrighton, who will ever be rem em bered and thanked for his charming ballad, ' Her bright smile haunts me still,' has just issued a sweet little song, comm enc i ng Grieve not for me love.' It is in the key of D, in six-quaver time, and ranges from Dto F sharp—or within the compass of a tenth. The air is very pretty and tender, is easy, and sings smoothly and pleasantly. Another of Mr. Wrighten's latest compositions is his ballad, Thby tell me lam quite forgot.' This is in B flat, common time. It is a very ex pressive song, and would well suit a good tenor voice, capable of delivering it with some degree of impassioned feeling. The accompaniment is simple, yet very appro priate."—Vide Scarborough Gazette, Oct. 4.

SPIRIT OF THE PUBLICS JOURNALS• --,.......__--- TIMES.—The long struggle between the President and the Republican party in the United States may be looked upon as constitutionally terminated by the elections which have just taken place. These elections seem to show that the new Congress will, by a large majority, insist on the constitutional amendment which the Republican party has advo cated, or, at least, on that part of it which relates to the - representation and suffrage. President Johnson will find himself next December faced by a Legisla ture which, though only representing a part of the Union, represents that part which population, wealth, and the result of a successful war have made irre sistible. In this Legislature he will not be able to count on a third of the members. In the Senate his policy numbers only some 15 supporters to 37 of the opposite party ; in the House of Representatives the two-thirds majority will be easily obtained by his opponents. In face, then, of Congress, as it now stands, he is in Legislative matters powerless. • Con gress can pass any measure it pleases, in spite of his veto, and though his constitutional authority is still very great, though he commands army and navy, still makes and unmakes officials, still to a large extent directs the government in the conquered States, it is. evident that he cannot carry out any national policy of his own. There will be men in Congress' who will not even shrink from impeaching him, for the political passions of Americans run fiercer and stronger than under our temperate -constitutional climate. Congress would, indeed, probably shrink for a time from such a course, but no one can say that it might not.be brought to it at last under what it might consider extreme provocation. Such a feud between the Executive and the Legislative powers of the country would, however, be the greatest of mis fortunes, and it is evident from the tone of the Ame rican press that in such a case something more than a mere legal or constitutional conflict might be ex pected. It is the interest and duty of all parties now to bring this hard-fought campaign to a close. The services which Mr. Johnson has rendered to the country during his term of office have been of the highest worth, and we believe that among what may be called the moderate Radicals there is no dis position to question them. During the first months of his unexpected Presidentship he simply carried out the policy of his unfortunate predecessor. Mr. Seward was the adviser, one might say the guide, of Mr. Lincoln ; he knew what the late President's purposes were, for he had to a great extent formed them himself, and in filling the highest place in both the present and the former Cabinet he showed that the prevalent spirit in each was the same. The power of the President has been used with the greatest effect to lessen the inevitable bitterness of conquest. Those who had fought so long and fiercely laid down their arms with less humiliation when they found that there was moderation and manliness at Washington. We believe that the benefits which the President and his chief conferred on their country by their treatment adviser of the vanquished Confederates have been great t s party beyond all estimation, and that when the storms] of h warfare are over all men will acku° a time it hung in the balance. wlllvetedherogeirt.noFtoar terrific proscription should rage l b- h South. The ad law• and Chief of the Executive would haveit hanged and con precedent to justify him if he had fiscated in all directions. E u ropean Governments, even the most civilised, had never scrupled to punish t ra itors with death and for feiture ; the most humane moralists had only demanded that the followers should not share the fate of the ringleaders. As to the lands and goods of rebels, Congress bad actually declared them to be forfeited, and no sooner were the Federal armies in occupation than some of the mili tary leaders showed that they were not inclined to PRICE.... 4d. STAMPED sd. leave the Act a dead letter. The Radical orators in the North were crying out for blood. Another set, with more interested motives were moving for the plunder of the wea l thy Confederates. President Johnson, with a nobility and courage which will bring him honour when his failings are forgotten, stood be tween the Southern people and a proscription which might, perhaps, have once more driven them to arms to wage a war, not f or i n d ependence, but for revenge. The zealots of the extreme party cried out as loudly then as now, but the good sense of the nation soon showed it that mercy and generosity were the best of policies. Acts of retaliation were avoided which would have filled every man, woman, and child in the South with undying enmity against the Northern people. The prospect at the present time, indeed, is not very bright. We who know from the example of Ireland how national or sectional hatreds are handed down from father to son, and how difficult it is to conciliate those whom our ancestors estranged may be excused for believing that manyy - difficulties may be in store for the United States. The Southern people are sore at their humiliations, and it is bard to suppose that a large part of them are not dis affected towards a rule which is exercised by the party antagonistic to them. But so far as they have been conciliated, so far as they are likely to bring up their children as good citizens, attached to the Union and its institutions, it will be the work of the work of the men who have wielded the executive, power of the United States since the war. Mr. Johnson has, however, for the most part fulfilled his task. Life and property in the South are safe, and, except as regards the negroes, the right of self government is recognised. The present conflict is mainly as to the representation in Congress, and on this the verdict of the North, which is practically the whole country, has been given against the Pre sident. We think he may now fairly yield, the more as the chief question i 3 one of electoral reform, which is especially within the jurisdiction of Con gress.. A part of the Constitutional Amendment seems not unreasonable. The Radicals do not for the present demand the institution of negro suffrage throughout the Union, but they claim that where negroes are excluded they shall no longer be counted as part of the population. As our readers know, the 1 House of Representatives is constituted anew after each census on the basis of population, Thus Ohio has 19 members, Pennsylvania 24, New York 31. In this enumeration the coloured population of the South used to be counted as equivalent to three fifths of their number : thus 100 black men would count as 60, and the State received representatives on the whole number thus made up. But now the Republicans demand that where negro suffrage is not established only the white population shall count—a change which would further diminish the number of Southern members, already very small, through the increased population of the Northern States.' It is probable that after the present elec tions the Republican party will demand negro suf frage pure and simple as the condition of the admis sion of a State to Congress. But that is in the future ; for the present the demand is that the members shall be in proportion to the voting popu lation, and as the principle is in itself not unjust, and as it is plainly upheld by the majority of the people, we think the President will do wisely to oppose it no longer. But the real sting of the Con stitutional Amendment lies not in the suffrage clause, but in that which disqualifies for office all who have had any share in the rebellion. It is evi dent that this is simply the abolition of self govern ment in the Southern States for a generation. Every man of education and position in the whole South took part in the rebellion, and to disqualify these, from Gen. Lee down to the drummers of the Confederate army, from Mr. Davis's Cabinet down to the clerks in their offices, is simply to subject the Southern people to the administration of strangers or negroes, and to force them to send men to Con gress who will do anything but speak for them. If this obnoxious and, as it seems to us, useless clause were expunged, the Constitutional Amendment might be accepted by the South without much ado. We should be glad to hear that some such compro mise had been made. The policy of exclusion from office and of governing a people by an insignificant and hated minority has been tried in more than one district of Europe, and. the.,end of it has always been a misery and a curp, - Thu only raiciit i n America would be to envenom still further the hearts of the late Confederates, and, as not even Mr. Thaddeus Stevens and Mr. Wendell Phil lips propose to exterminate the whole Southern people, it will be as well to leave them alone, and let who will be Governor or Congress-man, Judge or Mayor. But, whatever the resolution of Con gress, we sincerely hope that no worse conflict than one of words and votes will follow at Washington. an.

Congress will impeach the President, take the Exe cutive power into its hands, and as soon as possible elect a new magistrate. That these things are not expected to come to pass without an appeal to other than moral force is evident from the speculations on the respective dispositions of the regular army and the Volunteers. Such are the speculations which occupy men's minds at present. We are not inclined to believe that things will be carried so far. Ame rican politicians are shrewd, and they know how to bear a defeat as well as how to employ a victory. The habit of yielding to the will of the majority when it has once been determined is so ingrained in their character that they are not likely to struggle for a cause merely to show themselves consistent. It is not improbable that the present storm will rapidly and completely pass away like many others which have threatened the peace of the Union. ANGLO-AMERICAN TIMES. Among the most desirable objects to be carried out for placing on the firmest footing the alliance between Eng land and America is the establishment of an international copyright. The subject was ably handled in a paper laid before the Social Science Congress by Mr. ANTHONY TROLLOPE. Although that great author's argument embraced all nations, we confine ourselves to an Anglo-Ame rican view of this question. Indeed, so great is the market opened to English writers in the United States that could our American cousins be induced to adopt an international copyright it would be a matter of little concern whether other Governments followed their example or not. America has often and justly complained of the spirit with which many English authors wrote on their country. We are happy to say a change has gradually taken place, which could not be more strikingly illustrated than by a comparison between Mrs. TROLLOPE'S works and those of her son. The difference between the two countries accounts for the fact that in England are the authors—in America the readers. In Eng e : land is to be found great realised capital, and closd walks of industry. In America less created wealth, and wide and open paths of all branches of commerce. In England a family is brought up surrou by are all educational advantages, which when acquiredlAlTlCTiCa difficult to turn to profitable account. he n early em the demand for labour necessitates m n e . rce. the for mer aid in productive work. In aword,. ployment of the youth when he beconitier iiducive to literary country there is much leisure, co e of those qualified pursuits—in the latter, the time more profitable to become authors is require qualified to d the advantage o Eng a n work. These facts give t . general spread of distribution of general the education in Americal, of possessing authors, relaxation required after the means, and the general country the great field of daily toil, makes .t.ias attained a great eminence in England readers. America acknowledges her superiority while t le literature, aitheors. There are many reasons for the decided nation al preference for the works of an international copyright, some of establishment by Mr. 'l' .. ROI LOPE but • which have been given ,in our obfyls3llr? gaaindd op i n i o n the c hief reason has been omitted. S o l ong as these essential differences exist, which must exist till America becomes a densely peopled country, it would be wise in the Americans to adopt English authors as their own. An author, like a newspaper, must write for his readers. If the market for the sale of his book is mainly on the other side of the Atlantic—American subjects, the traits and cha racteristics of the people, their thoughts, feelings, and manners, the history, geography, and nature o s p a a s r e a t paramount o b u e n t aterra of their count r y — w ill h ere assume among the author class a incognita importance. A m w e i r th i ca t n would e n soon The New Engl an d fi res id e, the home in the eE n b g ro s a n d . prairie, the social life of the Southern planter, and the feeling that animated the Washington politician, wOuld become here as familiar as Household Words. A flood of light regarding American life would begin to dawn upon England. What is now to the Eng lish an enigma, a mystery, something incomprehen oiblel would become clear as the noon-day.

They would no longer dare to launch ac Atlantic a book that only proved their ownacross e gr the ignorance. Many would seek that field for tt exercise of their talents, and most of them *mild remember that the main body of their readers were there, and not here. The influence would be felt directly, and most beneficially. We have little hesitation in stating that more injury has been wrought to our friendly connection by English authors than by politicians, or indeed any other class. IVe hold that the main difficulty of the statesmen of both countries to keep the peace between them has arisen from English writing. It is one of the great sources of evil that would be in the highest degree judicious to remove, and this could be done most effectually by establishing an international copy right. An English author naturally feels sore at seeing the product of his brain pilfered. As the law now stands the American market is a dead letter to him. He may see an announcement in the Ame rican papers that his great work about to be pub lished will be issued at New York immediately on receipt of the first copy. He knows that from the one book will spring the thousands to be spread not only over the whole American Continent, but even over the colonies, and he cannot but feel that both readers and publishers are defrauding him of the results of his days and nights of toil. It is highly improbable that a man so placed can enter.. tain sentiments of satisfaction. He writes for his bread, and he finds more than half the loaf he has earned snatched from him. Mr. TROLLOPE shows that, although so injurious to authors, the system is in no degree beneficial either to publishers or readers in America. The man who holds the copyright protected by law can calculate with a degree of certainty on what the circulation will be, what the cost of an edition, and he can easily, therefore, tell what he can afford to pay the author. By working with this certainty he can produce the book cheaper for the reading public than when embarking in the speculation of publishing with he cannot tell how many competitors. " The true interest," says Mr. TROLLOPE, "of international literature between, " England and America is altogether antagonistic "to the present system. It stands to reason that " a certified property in copyright gust enable the " publishing proprietor of that copyright to do more "in the way of cheap selling than can be done by " the unsteady hold of their precarious adventures, " which the American booksellers now possess. I " have never met an American publisher who ha s "not professed himself to be in favour of interna " tioual copyright." Although at the present time the establishment of an international law, protecting copyrights, might be held to be a conce ss i on on th e part of America to England, the tendency of time is to equalise the merit and number of authors in both countries, and may perhaps hereafter give the balance of the advantage to America. At present their great authors would benefit largely, and on the whole an incentive would be given as much to the authors of America as to those of England. Natural talent in America, for which something has to be paid, must work at a disadvantage, if it has to compete against E ao n d gl i i i sh th t e al s e y n e t te , fmor whichwhichmnro. th i' i ß n oLOPE desires is g L has to be paid beneficial in giving cheap literature to readers, it must act most injuriously against American writers. It is hardly probable that an American publisher would pay a fairly remunerative price to an Ame rican author, if he can " crib " from an English author as good or a better book for nothing. The true policy is to make the fields one, and to let all corners enter on equal terms. Metro; olitan Board of Works. At the usual weekly meeting of the members of the board yesterday—Sir John Thwaites, the chair man presiding—the cash statement showed the cash balances to Oct. 8, 1866, to be £695,097 14s. 2d. ; and cheques not presented £8,515 12s. 3d. A deputation attended on the board from the District Board of Works for Poplar to present a memorial from the inhabitants of that district, pray.. ing for the appropriation of a site of land for the purposes of health and recreation in that district. The memorial set forth that at the early part of this year a very favourable opportunity presented itself of opening a negotiation with the Secretary of State for India for the purchase of the- buildings and grounds situate in the East India Dock-road, and for many years used as ahns-houses for the -officers-- a - the East Indid. Cuil.pany. The memorialists had been strongly urged by the trustees of Poplar, and by a very generally expressed wish of the inhabi tants, embodied in a memorial with upwards of 3,000 signatures, obtained at very short notice, and the negotiations were satisfactorily arranged to pur chase the ground for the use of the inhabitants for the purpose of being laid out and maintained as an open space. The ground is situate on the south side of the East India Dock-road, and has a frontage in the High-street, Poplar, con taining a measurement of three and a half acres, and is agreed to be sold to the memorialists for the sum of £10,500. The following is the estimate fur nished by their surveyor of the cost of purchasing and laying out the ground, viz.:—Purchase-money, £10,500 ; enclosing the ground £2,300 ; laying out £250 ; law charges, £5O ; total, £13,100. Deduct for old materials to be sold by action £l,OOO, leav ing a total of £12,100 to be provided. It also set forth that the nearest open space is the Victoria park, which is a distance of three miles from Poplar, and the memorialists were anxious to do all in their power towards the health of the district, as it had buffered much from epidemics. It concluded by asking the board to grantsuch a sum of money towards the cost of the purchase of the land as might be deemed fair and equitable. After some discussion, in which the project was most favourably received by the board, it was una nimously referred to the Works Committee for con sideration and report. Mr. FREEMAN rose and moved the resolution of which he had given notice :—" To Lefer the question and to o n r of the water supply of the metropolis to the Works report General Pur poses prCesoomntmnittatetee, of f i t t h h e an lawas instruc tion re. gatds constant supply to each house contained in the saveral Companies and Metropolitan Acts, oil the system of constant supply now in operation in Glas gow, Nottingham, and other towns, and to bring up suggestions for such an amendment of .the law and improvement of the existing machinery of dist rterb iu tion as would ensure a cons tant supply owa to every house within the jurisdiction of the board." Mr. WESTERTON seconded the motion. After some discussion, Mr. LE BRETON said the motion of Mr. Freeman was not so large in its scope as it ought to be ; and in no hostile spirit he should move an amendment to it, which was—., That the question of the water supp:iy of the metropolis be referred to the Works an d General Commi ttee to re p ort thereon, with Such sugges tions as they may deem advisable for the purpose of o btainin g an increased su pp l y , and of supply was most of water, b et t e r q uality." Mr. HOWES secon ded the a mendment. Mr. NEWTON said that in some parts of the east butend t o b f a L t oun.usdonnottheinretwnoasseapcnornts h sta w nt e s r u e pp i needed by the poor. Mr. FREEMAN, in reply, said his only object was to obtain an inquiry, and if it could be better arrived at by Mr. Le Breton's amendment, he was willing to withdraw his motion. The amendment of Mr. Le Breton was then car ried unanimously. THE CHAIRMAN OF COMMITTEES. Mr. ROCHE moved that no member of the board shall be eligible to be elected for more than two suc cessive years as vice-chairman of the same com mittee. The motion having been seconded, after a short discussion was carried, after which the board ad- journed. DEATH OF WILLIAM FISHER HOBBS, ESQ.-- We regret to have to record the death of William Fisher Hobbs. Esq., of Boxted Lodge, in this county, which took place yesterday (Thursday). Mr. Fisher Hobbs was one of the founders of the Royal Agricultural Society of Eng and ; for very many years he had been one of the Society's Council ; and thore were few of its more important corn utittees which were not indebted to his indefatigable labour and keen powers of investigation. In the smaller sphere of his county Mr. Hobbs was equally active and useful. Every Connty Agricultural Society formed during the last 30 years was more or less indebted to his assistance in its formation and management; and of the less pretentious Labourers' Friend Societies he was the founder of two at l eas t (Coggeshall and Earls C olas ) , a n d the promoter of sev eral others.
