THE QUESTION OF A GENERAL AMNESTY

THE QUESTION OF A GENERAL AMNESTY
has been before the Cabinet once, but was OPP
posed by all. 90 says report save MIR. Seward.
Should the President, therefore, conclude TO
issue such proclamation looking TO that end,
he will have 10 do 1t pretty much on his own
responsibility.
THE TRIAL or Mr.. DAVIS.
Mr.. RAYMOND, Of New York, offered reso-
luton requesting the President to take speedy
steps for the trial of Jefferson Davis for trea-
son. Referred TO the Committee on the Judi
ciary.
By all means let us have the trial. Let us
have judicial decision upon the question
of whether he is guilty of treason. We are
sure the President would pardon him if con-
yicted, but it were we'll to have an authorita-
tive exposition of the law of treason, and of
the crime which Mr.. Davis has committed.
CONFLICT OF AUTHORITY IL SOUTH CAROLINA.
A serious conflict of jurisdiction has occur
red between the State courts of South Caro-
lima and the military, under General Sickles.
The courts have sentenced white men, con
yicted of larceny, TO be punished with stripes,
under the old criminal code of South Caro-
lima. General SickleS forbade the execution
of the sentence for the reason that it was alb
horrent to the ideas of philanthropy and
usageS of modern civilization. The circuit
courts of the State have therefore, it appears,
declined 10 try criminals at all. The President
termand General Sickles S order.
OF course General Sickles would have the
same right to prohibit the hanging or impri-
Soument of criminals and the courts merely
manifest Il proper selfrespect III refusing to
try cases which military officer claims the
right to review.
CIVIL RIGHTS LAWN WHAT STATES CONTESTED.
In Indiana, or Illinois, under their State
laws, which prohibit the immigration OF
negroes into those States, or their residence
there, the constitutionality of the new law
NAV be tested. The law will execute itself,
through the Federal courts, in like manner
with the fugitive slave law. The President
will have nothing to do with its execution
except in the appointment of United States
district Judges. Some of these are already
apnointed others will be in the course of the
wear. The President must take care that he
does not select men for judges who would
abuse their power to speculate, like United
States cotton agents, upon the necessities or
apprehcnSions of the citizens OF the States
where the law is TO be executed.
The first section of the law goes into effect
at once, declaring who are citizens OF the
United States.
RESTORATION OF \ vIRGINIAN 5 LANDS.
Mr.. John Landstreet, of Fairfax county,
Va, having been pardoned by the President
his property, which was in the possession OF the
Freedmen S Bureau, has been restored TO him
NEW POSTAGE STAMPS.

issue Il new postage stamp OF tne dehomlna'
lion of fifteen cents, which will bear on its
face 4 likeness Of the late President Lincoln

VIEWS OF Mr. STEPHENS on THE PROSPECTS
Of THE COUNTRY, POLITICAL AND OTHER.-a
few DAYS since we had the pleasure OF quite
:, lengthy interview with this distinguished
gentleman, then on his way 10 Washington 10
present his credentials lis recently elected
United States Senator from the State OF Geor-
gia. 1t would be quite Impossible to give any
accurate account of the views that Tell from
him in the course of our conversation: ana
we will not essay the task. The general I'M
preston, however, made upon us was, mat lie
regarded the political sky as dark ana gloomy
in the extreme, but nevertheless he seemed
content to wait III patience Tor the develop
ments of the future. ,. :
In speaking of the freedmen and the chances OF
agricultural prosperity under the new system
of free colored labor, he expressed this remark
ubIe view: that the labor of the present year,
in his opinion, would be more efficient than IN
any coming wear. Reckoning upon TINS SUP
lect on philosophical principles, he says that
The lower races of mankind, such rs the
negro, are wanting in that degree OF perse-
yerance which is essential TO success In any
aim that therefore, in their earliest eHorts
since they have been made free they Will dis-
play spasmodic energy aud industry lhat III II
Il short year or two they will grow weary OF
the task before them, and relapse into COM
paratiVe listlessness and inactivity. -
His conclusion therefore Is, that tue iarge
mass on account of idleness, will fan TO make
n living, and that consequently they VIII
rapidIy die out .-2arksciHs Tojacco PlaM

PORTLAND, Me-, April lo.-The steamship
Belgian from Liverpool the afternoon of the
Goth ultimo, ria Londonderry 3oth, has ar
rived There is no later news, the 3oth being
Good Friday.
The London Times of the 3Oth says " There
is too much reason to fear that the peace OF
Europe is about to be broken by one of the
least Just and necessary wars of modern times
between Austria and Prussia. The Times
heartily trusts that England may hold aloof.
Several war vessels are preparing for sea at
Plymouth. 1t is reported that they will go to
the ST. Lawrence.

THE President AND Mr.. DAvIs-1SrEREsr-
iNG STATEMENT. The Washington correspond
ent of the Philadelphia Le''9er makes the fol-
lowing interesting statement:
A most important argument covering eighty
printcd pages, has been received by the IreSl-
dent from London, i'll which are set forth the
reasons why Davis cannot be convicted III any
court of the crime OF treason The ground
gone over dates from the foundation OF the
Government, includes the "rlghts OF the
States as then understandable action OF New
York, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Massachusetts
and the States, i'll accepting the Constitution
and the opinions of Washington, Fisher Ames,
Hamilton, Webster, Ellsworth, Rufus hlng,
Davie, Spencer, Madison, jay, Randolph,
Franklin, Tench Cox, james Wilson, ana
Chief Justice Mexican, Of PennSylvanla. Inc
purport of the opinions of these honored dead,
as showing the sovereignty OF the states, ana
which the barrister who sends TO the Pfesl-
dent the argument gives i'll detail may be
summed up in the remark OF Wilson Ill the
PENNSYLVANIA Convention of 1857:
"IJnou the existence of the State Govern
ments depends the existence OF the federal
plan. The supreme, absolute, and uncontrol-
liable power is in the people before they make
u cons titution, and remains in them after II is
made. My position is, that the
absolute sovereignty necer goes from me pe2p'e.

Rev. JAMES CT HAMMER, ID. D., of Balti-
more, has withdrawn from the association
with the Northern Presbyterian Church. DR..
HAMMER is q native of Virginia, and will re-
turn 10 the South. He says:
MY settled judgment told me that could
not remain identified with the Church North
without being partaker of their sin in de-
bauching the church by counting the embraces
of Caesar. In doing. this in my best Judgment
they have taken a shameless and daring stride,
not only 10 the decentralization of the whole
body ccclcsast teal, but to strike down and
destroy all religious liberty. | have read the
histories of the past to but little purpose If |
fail to call to mind the evils which the Church
has brought upon herself by submitting TO
political assumptions for the achievement of
the ends of unprmcpled demagogues. wash
