TREASON AND DtstNE0N IN
NIW.yOaR.

That faction of the late Democratic party
which is led by John Cochrane and Fernando
Wood, have broken ground for the campaign by
hauling down the stars and stripes, and running
up the flag of the rebelous Shareholders. No
body who knows these men viii be surprised at
this. Without even the pretense OF political
honesty, their sympathies are VIGOROUSLY on the
side of oppression and knayery OF any sort that
promises political or pecuniary profit. No beDef-
cent reform ever failed TO encounter their opPo-
sition; the publication OF the franchise the re-
striction of rurnshops and gambling houses dad
the enforcement Of laws for the Observance OF
the Sabbath have in turn aroused their Vindc-
tive and active hatred. Ii Il quite natural that
such men should rush 10 the standard Of Jcfe.-

Trustworthy representatives to foreign Courts,
was cert,anly work enough for one month. The
immense responsibility that attaches to naval and
military operations renders the EXTREMIST care
necessary m their preparation, and they consume
great amount OF time, even when prosecuted
with the utmost energy. War with Mexico broke
out in MAY, 1916, on the Rio Grande, and
thoupb the Government acted with the greatest
nromptitude. it was not until September that
Gen. TAYLOR was in condition to attack Mon
terey, and then ouly with Coos men. England
and Franco declared war against Russia, March
%. 1854, and it was not until Sept IA that
tboir forces landed in the Crimeh, and then
nesiy o month elapsed before SeVastOpol was
invested. r
In four weeks Mr.. Liocoln's Administration
silently. quietly. without unnecessary alarm, has
raised the Government from its disorganized,
bankrupt state and put it in condition to face
with some degree OF efficiency very formidable
rebellion. A powerful naval and military force
sails from this port to-day TO reinforce and pro.
tect the United States possessions in the South.
The Collins steamships Atlantic and Baltic, ard
tho Vanderbilt steamer Illinois, have been char
tered, and, in company with the frigate Pow
batap. will soon be on the high soas, bear
ing ample supplies Of men and provisions
to tho point most ia danger. Whether
that point be Pickens or Sumter, we
cannot at present say. We predict, however,
that the rebels, if they venture to attack either
fortress, will be greatly disappointed in their eX-
pectations of an easy victory. We have reason
to believe that both of these fortresses are far
more capable of protracted defense than the
public have been led to suppose BY the rumors
in circulation. /. may be well, perhaps, to bear
in mind the fact that no official statement of the
condition Of either Pickens or Sumter has set
been given to the public.

MILITARY AND NAVAL MOVEMENTS

Some English traveller in this country once
said that tho Americans expect everything to be
done IN twenty minutes. The force Of the re-
mark has been strongly illustrated by the recent
popular clamor about the inactivity Of the pres
emit Administration. In their ieyorish impatience
for news the people have forgotten that it ID but
a single month since Mr.. Lincoln aud his Cabinet
entered upon Office, ut q period when the whole
machinery Of Government had become rotten and
disorganized, partly through treason, and partly
through 1nbeclity, when the Treasury was
empty the Army and Navy scattered to the
remotest stations, the nation misrepresented
abroad, and at home every department swarlning
with spies and traitors To remedy these gigan-
tic disorders, TO collect the army and navy, to
purify the Departments, and to select and send

There is report in circulation that secret
agents, sent to England and France by the Ad-
mibi.tratiOn immediately after it came iuto power,
have returned, bringing the most explicit assur-
snces that the Governments of those countries
are decidedly hostile TO the Slave Confederacy,
and will in no manner recognize or cOuntenauce
it. II Is altogether improbable that any such
agents have been sent, for the simple rearon
that ample means are possessed by the Admins
tration Of learning the intentions Of France and
England without employing secre. agents, and it
has been well known from the beginning that the
Shareholders possess no hold whatever on the
sympathy or respect of any part of the civilized
world. Their only possible allies are Ashantee,
Dahomey, and the Democratic politicians Of
the North.

In another column will be found letter from
the Hon. +. A. Conking to the Postmaster
General On the subject Of permanent site for
our city Post-@fice. The writer presents in
more precise and complete form than has before
been done the reasons, connected with the future
growth Of tbs city, for placing the new edifco
as far north as the City Hall Park. The histOri-
cal and statistical facts with which he supports
his conclusion must, il appears to US, go far to
convince any mind not blinded b. interest or
passion that the retention Of the Post'Offce in
its present announcement and almost inaccessible
position, even should q new edi6ce DO erected,
win not long DO acquiesccd in BY tho public.
II is high tins that our citizens should take this
matter vigorously in hand, and, by public
meetings and petitions, make known their wishes
in such a manner that the Administration at
Washington will not misunderstood them

consideration paid her been pulled into Hfe'
postSToas initiation, and made to become tumia
with arrogance. atJ-.
In the course of Thursdays work. the Con-
vention came 10 the fifth resolution before them,
which presumes to instruct the Government as
to the proper use to be made Of Its own forts.
AS tho resolution originally stood, one clause of
it was as follows:
"whc State remains in the Union the legitimate of
such fo. project tie country rsains foreign force
and to aid in suPpre,'iDs domestic instruction"
When this was taken up it seemed to
strike tho Convention that the phrase
TO aid in suppressirg domestic insur-
rect;on" might be little awkward; that
they might be in the situation of the Ounce who
is sent out to cut the rod for his own back so
they erased this clause, and now the Government
can only use its forts to protect the country
sgain.t foreign foe. At least Virginia says
80, and size speaks like one accustomed to be
obeyed. Hear one Of her insulting fulmina-
tions, being Article Twelve of the report now
under consideration in her Conventions:

li.tened to by free people without causiDg
their blood to tiogle in their veins, it is not cer
