~ President Johnson, or some of his
friends, telegraphs from Warrington to
the New York Times, that he will not
change his course in view Of the result
at the late elections, but will submit the
question to the Southern people; and II
they adopt the Amendment, he win
"bow to the win Of the people thus law
fully expressed" The difference be-
tween Mr.. johnson and the people of
the North Is, that the former proposes to
let the rebels and traitors of the South
fix the policy of the Government while
the latter propose to fix it themselves
If Mr.. johnson does not choose to bow
to the will Of the loyal men of the na-
ton, he will find that it Is q matter Of
the greatest Indifference to the people,
As long as they can veto all his vetoes,
and reject as many 81 his appointments
~ they see fit, and increase or diminish
the army at pleasure, and impeach him
whenever he refuses to execute their de-
crees, they will scarcely be alarmed BY
such menaces as are contained in the
despatch referred to. ,~t...r-.,.s. .~a-as

iHE CONFESSIONS OF SURRATT.-The state
ment which we published yesterday from our
Montreal correspondent fully bears out the
views which we recently expressed regarding
The alleged completely of JEFF Davis and his
Cabinet with the assassination plot. We never
entertained a doubt of the falseness Of the
charge. No man in Mr.. Davis position could
possibly have lent moments attention 10 the
consideration of such plan, for the simple
reason that 1t would have ruined him in the
esteem and confidence of the very people
whom il was intended to serve. The idea
could only have originated in the brain of =
fanatic and been worked out by characterless
and dcpraved instruments. The statements
made by Surratt in Montreal, before his de-
parture for Europe, are consistent with the
conclusions of NIL unprejudiced minds and are
more 10 be relied on than any that he may
have made since his arrest, seeing that the
latter are, in all probability, influenced by the
hope OF pardon. His account Of the original
scheme was that Ii was intended to seize and
carry Of Mr.. Lincoln to Richmond and hold
him as hostage there for the Southern
prisoners. 1t was among the rebel conspira-
tors stopping at st. Lawrence Hall, In Mon
tresl, that the plan was changed to assassina-
ton, Wilkes Booth Offering to perform the
deed Neither the names OF JET Davis nor
Andrew Johnson were mentioned in connec-
ton with the plan, and Surrau protested that
neither Of them knew anything Of their intcn-
tons. II seems absurd to couple Mr.. Johnson's
name with this statement; but such efforts
have been made by his radical enemies to in
volve him in q previous knowledge Of the
conspiracy that II is but right that this
emphatic contradiction from one of the chief
actors in the plot should have as wide circn-
lation as possible. For our own part we
repeat that the completely Of Mr.. Davis was
just as probable AZ tina, Of Mr.. Johnson, which
is as much as saying that It was simply
Impossible.

The FENIAN SCARE IN GREAT BRrrAIN.-We
are told by the last cable despatch that Fenian
arrests continue to be made by the Irish
prevails throughout the entire island. This
comment by the cable reporter is curious
one. Is he more in the secrets of Mr. Stephens
than his friends and confederates at this side,
or is he better posted than the Irish govern
ment as to the importance of the movements in
progress? Neither Of these assumptions is
likely, and therefore we must continue to
infer from statements that reach US from other
sources that so far from the danger being con-
sidered over by the Irish authorities il is re-
garded as more imminent than ever. OF
course an effort is being made by the London
Times and other leading English journals to
appease the widespread anxiety that prevails
ON the subject, in order to prevent financial
revulsion, complicating the difficulty. A run
has already commenced on the Irish banks,
and there is no knowing but that this may ex-
tend to the banking institutions in England, un-
less means ofquieting the alarm can be adopted.
The conviction that exists that the plot
embraces England in it's ramifcations, and that
serious disturbances there will follow the Irish
outbreak, has impaired very feverish and
unsettled character to financial and CONNER
cial transactions throughout the three king
doms. This, coupled with the fact that the
military preparations on the part Of the govern
ment continue to he theoretically pushed
forward, and that Mr.. Stephens is either now in
Ireland or operating within a short distance Of
its coasts, does not, as the cable pretends, show
that the grounds for alarm have at all dimin-
ished. A couple Of weeks will determine how
far the assertion is justified by the facts Until
then we prefer not specializing on opinions
which evidently take their color from the
befogged atmosphere OF the British metropolis.

Of England. $s
The men working in these collievies, it is
said, can often detect the approach of danger
when they are getting near one Of these' great

cases have refused to work in these directi .'ns.
In some instances on record where the minevs
have so refused, If we are not mistaken, the.

TO continue their operations, on the ground Of
alleged conspiracy against their employers, and
explosions actually took place and many lives
were sacrificed. Notwithstanding thst good
deal OF precautiovis exercised to guard against
these accidents, it appears from recent events

LIQUOR SEEUREs IN MAssACHUsKTTs.LWe
perceive that the friends of temperance in New
England are making raid upon the distil-
leries and liquor establishments We are told
that in the State of Massachusetts two-thirds
Of the tsrum shops' have been shut up by the
authorities and that the temperance reformers
are about TO press the passage Of q strict pro.
hibitory law on the Legislature. This mea-
sure will not result in any good, as we know
by our experience Of like legislation here
and elsewhere. Maine laws and Excise
laws are powerless in restraining the
sale and use Of liquor. As long as
people want it they will find others to sell
it, with or without the sanction of law The
high duty which the Internal Revenue law i'm
creased the quantity distilled, because the
profit being so great the law has been evaded
in thousands of instances, as we see by the
astounding frauds now brought to light all
around us. The tax has proved to be only an
inducement to fraud and source of demorali-
cation, precisely as has the imposition. Of high
duties on the distillation of spirits in Great
Britain and Ireland. The proper way to dis
courage the abuse Of incompetence is to edu-
cate the people up to a high standard of self
respect and good morals, and not by legis-
lating against distilleries, "clearing out"
liquor establishments by temperance mobs or
putting heavy taxes upon spirits. All these
plans have been weighed in the balance and
found wanting They have been applied with
peculiar stringency in pious. New England, and
yet we will venture to say that there is more
drinking, with all its Generalization enhanced,
done in secret in the sanctimonious city Of
Boston, in proportion TO its population, than
in all the bar rooms of the so-called ungodiy
city of New York.

The Dissolution of Our Union Armies spec.

D1S9Oa0t1On IA spec.
tacIc and a Warning for the World.
"On November Cs66) 1,O23,O2l troops
had been transferred, mustered out and paid,
leaving in service 11,O43 volunteers, colored
and white" "Past experience shows that
should any national emergency require larger
force than is provided by the peace establish
ment, armies could be swiftly organized to at
least the full strength Of a million Of men,"
These two sentences are extracts from the
report of the Secretary of War. They are
plain statements Of facts; yet they are pregnant
with meaning and cover history such as has
never before been written of any nation Of the
earth. A civil war is the most demoralizing in
which country can be involved. Il is embit-
tered by sectional prejudice and personal vim
dictiveness. 1t is war Of father against son,
of brother against brother. The feelings it
leaves behind bear no analogy to those en-
gendered by war against a foreign enemy.
The one rudely tears asunder all the nearest re-
lations of life and bequeathes legacy of hatred
and revenge; the other serves to bind
people more firmly together in the bonds of
national pride and Of common sympathy. After
five years OF such a trying and demoralizing
war as that through which this country has
passed We now present to the world the grand
and wonderful spectacle Of an army of over
miNion Of men. quietly dissolved and returned
back to the peaceful occupations Of life, without
trouble, without excitement and without dis
turbing by aripple the steady flow of commercial
.rA scIr ~ ;rtn H. k1n al,
ton and the intelligence OF the American peo-
pie, the license of camp life is forgotten as
easily as the habiliments OF the soldier are laid
aside. The carnival of blood is no sooner
ended than the ferocity and licentiousness it
engenders are forgotten. The soldier lays
down the musket and the bayonet to take up
the plough, the hammer or the pen. There is
no marked increase Of crime; no organized
bands Of cutthroats and robbers prowl about
the country. There is nothing, in fact, to show
that vast army has been released from the
camp and the field and let loose upon society,
except simple paragraph in an official report
informing us that over one million Of soldiers
have been mustered out Of service and trans
ported to their homes. From the same source
we are reminded that in case Of a national
emergency this million OF men would swiftly
leave the peaceful pursuits Of life to which
they have so quietly returned. and would
spring forth again an army Of disciplined and
determined soldiers ready for the field. What
spectacle does this present and what warn
ing does it convey to the decaying monarchies
of the Old World, who, in their senility, have
been calculating upon the failure and autici-
pating the destruction Of our young aud vigor-
Gus republic
