with the Treasury Department is true. The de-
tails in the case are withheld by the Treasury
Department, aod neither of the Oregon Senators
seem to have any clear idea Of the facts of the
case, or take much interest In them. But Spe-
eial Agent Getchell has made report to the
Secretary, presenting evidence to show that the
Collector has been speculating in greehbaeks
with funds of the Government. l cannot learn
that any special defAlcatiou is charged, and am
inclined to-think that the sum involfed is not
large in amount. The Department, however, has

Hon. Lewis Hanes.

We admire consistency whereve we find it, even
though it may be displayed IN opposition to
cause we advocate.
We may think man mistaken in his opinions,
yet, when we are obliged to admit that he is hon
est in them, we cannot withhold our respect from
him.
Our contemporary of the Old North STATE has by
his course since the war, shown that his course
during the war was the result of an honest con-
viction of duty, and therefore while we have diff
fered from him widely as possible, we frankly
admit that our feelings towards him personally
are of the kindest nature-such as candor, consls-
tency and ability must produce in every mind not
entirely filled with prejudice.
If other men of this State had pursued like
course there would be far more good feeling ex-
listing between those who favored and those who
opposed the war. The following extract from a
late editorial of our contemporary commends our
especial admiration. We assure him that his
course will command the respect of the people,
not only of his district, but of the whole State.
He says:
As member elect of Congress, will stay out for
ever and if we cannot make living by honest toll will
throw oursef and family upon the cold charities OF
rights by advising the adoption of that degrading propo
sition-the Howard Amendment. If we do nothing
representative elect shall at least command their respect
while it shall preserve to US our self respect.
IF this be the true theory, and our contemporary
of the Old North STATE says, ''we scarcely need say
to our readers that the opinions enunciated in
this letter, are those which we have ever main
tanned" we cannot see how the Convention could
get any authority from the people of North Caro-
lima.
The election for delegates was held in Septem-
ber Gov Holden was not relieved from duty
until 23rd Dec, 1865. The Presidents proclama-
ton, declaring the insurrection in North Carroll.
to be at an end, was not issued until End April
1866.
It is to be presumed the fact of the suppression
of the insurrection in this State published by
the President as soon as it was certainly known
by him, as he had previously, on 18th june 1865
made a like declaration as to Tennessee and az
he declined, and so far we know, vet declines
to do so in regard to Texas.

of habeas oorpus shall not be suspended except
when the public safety requires it, in cases of in

The Kentucky Election,

The election of Judge Duvall as clerk of the
Court of Appeals, which is an important State of
fee, and of some pecuniary profit, means, as we
understand it, no more than that large majority
of the people have thought proper to avengc,
through him, an outraged committed during the
war; of using the military power of the govern
ment to prevent the people from casting their bal
lots for him when a candidate for State judge. Il
is just of those cases where the majority ofvo-
tiers. whenever the opportunity occurs, will take it
upon themselves to right the wrongs of their fell
low-citizens. We have seen such cases often be-
FORE and shall witness them many times hereaf
ter
That Judge Duval is constitutional, law-loy-
ing Union citizen no one doubts. That he was
one, even when self Punishment was imposed by
the strong of the military power upon him
is no doubt true. Still more is this trne of his
opponent, Gen. Hobson, who is a democrat who
took part in the war, and who supported bv
men of the character of Governor Bramlette and
Senator Guthrie, and others of equal prominence
Under other circumstances the majority would, no
doubt, have cast their suffrages for the latter
The radicals WILL of course, cry out against his
election, which, however, proves no more than the
fact that perhaps, 25,O0 more voters gave their
suffrages for one who was insulted and outraged
during the war, rather than for one who was more
conspicuous upon the side of the government.

PEACE-THE ARMIsTICE, DC.

From the London Standard July 25th
Scarcely had we heard that the five days arms.
tice between the armies of Austria and Prussia
had been arranged by the pacific intervention OF
the Emperor of the French when the more impor-
tant news followed of the provisional acceptance
10y Austria of the preliminaries of peace. Italy,
though more tardlly, is now said to have agreed
to them in principle. These terms of peace had
been proposed by Prussia, in concert with France,
and the concessions required of Austria are be-
lieved to be less humiliating than those which
Prussia was at first inclined to demand after the
victory of KoniggratZ Prussia wishes to be left
alone to extend her influence in Northern Ger
many. Her ambition does not at present extend
beyond the line of the Maine. She is content to
leave Bavaria, Wurtemberg, and Baden to their
own devices, to form confederation of their own
If they please, to unite with Austria or not as they
may find convenient All Germany as far AS the
Maine and the Bohemian frontiers is to be formed
into close federation, of which Prussia shall be
the head, and from which Austria is to be exclud-
ed AS Prussia is absolutely to annex large por-
ton of thiscountry-or, at least the Danish Ouch
les, half of Hanover, and Electoral Hesse-and is
to have supreme control of the military resources
of the rest, the North German Confederation will
be Prussian empire in everything except the
name. IT has been supposed that the great OBJ
stacle to the formation of such an empire would
be found in the very natural objection entertained
by France to the consolidation on her Rhine from
tier of powerful state which, if Unaffected to-
wards her. might at any time place her interests
1t is phenomenon which deserves to be no.
ticed IN passing, that the French Emperor has, to
all appearance, done his best to bring about the
very state of things which it fancied he would
regard Objectionable If France is willing,
she seemed to be, that the rule of Berlin should
extend unchallenged from the Rhine to the Wis
lula, and from the Maine to the Konigsau, and to
throw the whole of Central Europe into the arms
OF possible rival, the countries which have moth
ing to fear from Prussia will not grudge her the
ACKNOWLEDGMENT. The development of a strong
Germany is fact upon which we in England have
every reason to congratulate ourselves and our
satisfaction will be enhanced by the knowledge
that it is also acceptable to France The division
of Northern from Southern Germany, though it
has been brought about by violence, is in itself
an eminently natural and proper arrangement
The very antagonism between Austria and Prussia
which has existed for years, but only just now ex-
pioded in war, is reason why they should be
separated by some sort of geographical limit
That two such rivals should be associated in a
common form OF government was circumstance
which, had it been suffered to continue, would
only have remained the inevitable seed OF future
