We ask the careful attention of our readers
20 the very able and .unanswsrable report OF
she minority, or the democratic portion, of
fAs rsoonstruction COMMITTEES. It is q paper,
Fays the Boston Post, which will hold prom
ensnt place in our national history as clear
md forcible exposition of the constitutional
principles Of the government and of the pow.
prs and duties of its different branches. IL is
distinguished by breadth of comprehension
Ind vigor of argument not surpassed by any
Itate paper on the records of the country
There is no partizan spirit manifested in it's

New YoRK, June 27.-The n. Y. Herald's St.
Petersburg correspondent writing the 9th of
June denies that there exists an understanding
treaty by virtue of which Russia will assist Austria
in the coming war. He places in review a sumin-
AIRY Of the history of the diplomacy of the two en-
pires during the past 10 years evidence that
such an arrangement would not be entered into.
Russia, it 10 said, will not permit Turkey to occu-
by the Dounbann principalltes.
A Berlin letter of the 10th of June says that
from 200 to 800 hundred, some say fully 800 bills
are bought to protest in that city.
The Spanish senate has approved Of the bill TO
fx the frontier line between France and Spain in
accordance with the recent treaty concluded be-
tvs cen the two countries.
The n. Y. Herald's Montreal special says:
Sixteen fenian prisoners have been brought
there for confinement in the jail. The broad
chBrge upon which the feDians committed
is that of levying war against her majesty's Col.
Ermabinger. The committing magistrate came
in with the accused, who were brought to this
city for greater security, in view of the last affair
at Pigeon Hill. 1t is not known when their trial
will take place.
The n. Y. Uerald's Toronto special says:
Morton, one of the tenian prisoners there was
admitted to bail on his own recognizance yester-
day, his employer at Buffalo representing him Us
an inoifensive and innocent person. r. A. Har-
rison, farrister, is industriouslv working up the
prosecution Of the fenians on the part of the
SOFerHLHclI.
1t is now pretty well determined that they will
be tried by a military court marital under the
foreign aggression act. 1t is said that Gen. Jno
Hilyard Cameron viii act as chairman of the
commission. The 18th regulars are now con.

THE PRESIDENTS COURSE.

The people of the United States have been
patching, with great anxiety and hope, the
burse-of President johnson, in relation to
be res.aration of the Union and the admis-
ion into congress of the loyal representatives
Epm the south. They are satisfied that his
a inoiples are right, but they are impatient
n his hardness in carrying out his policy,
I'd they respectfully ask that he let his pow
81 be telt upon those factious disunion Office
alders who are doing nothing for the sue
lbs of his policy. They ask that ths'mun"
licy of the Office. holders shall be broken

81 large number of ofAce-holders who
em to think the policy of saying nothing
III save them from removal. They are hear
III and bitterly opposed to President john
IA and as heartily in favor of all the radical
y aemes of Sumner, Stevens & Co. Yet they
sltinue to eat Prssldsnt Johnson's bread
M butter, play mum, look wise, and work,
reilly, for the success of the obstruction
emes of congress. They think they can
fG President johnson and keep their Offices
keeping their mouths shut, and use the
yer he allows them to hold, to defeat him
his policy. Whether President Johnson
HI permit this game to be played is to be
" hat he is honest, patriotic, and truly de-
u ned to a fair restoration of the Union NO
1H doubts. That he feels right, and, here
1t there, acts right in regard TO appoint

finet officer who is in full harmony and
apathy with him. They are all, even those

The continuance of the union of ali the
states Is necessary to the intended existence
of the government. The government is
formed by constitutional association OF
states, and it's integrity depends on the con-
tinuance Of the entire association. If one
state is Withdrawn from it by any cause to
that extent il the Union dissolved Those
that remain may exist as a government, but
