The President and the Negroes.

From The Times.
A Brooklyn paper lis disgusted with both the
recent speeches of President Johnson-shat 10
the negroes and that to the Montana delegation.
The latter was remarkable for the number of
its words and the paucity Of its meaning" and
betrayed sad lack Of appreciation of the
temper of the American people, or else motive
which at present we (the Brooklyn paper) do
not care to mention" The speech to the negroes
"lacked the simplicity, the dignity, aud the
clearness of the statement addressed TO him" by
the gentlemen to whom this work was dele
gated" and who presented clearly, simply, and
with dignity, the facts on which they based their
claims.D Furthermore, we are told, the Presi-
dents reply twas boiling in its commencement
roundabout In its method, and barren in its con-
clusiens.n .
1t is certainly hopeless to attempt to contro-
vert such critics as this on matters of opinion; and
as to the contrast between the "digntyn of Pre-
sident Johnson's address and that Of the worthy
negro who was the spokesman of the delegation,
we have nothing whatever to say.
We must remark, however, that these two
speeches of the President seem to us to contain
q number OF constitutional social, and philoso-
phical truths which IL would be well If both
whites and negroes would remember and act
upon: 10 lhe Montana delegation he expounded
certain liberal and noble principles of our poll
tical structure, which, In times like these, are
too apt TO be overlooked or ignored; and to the
negro delegation he gave some advice, so kind,
so Just so discreet, 30 1ar-seeing as to form
complete guide for the action OF their race They
have, OF course, the liberty to ignore it, along
with other liberties which President johnson
has helped them to procure; and their special
partisans have equal liberty to fiatter their
vanity, and urge them to spurn the advice given;
but it remains to be seen whether the future
history OF the negro race will justify their course
or his.

Thrilling Scene in the Cirque NapoleOn-A
LiOness on the Rampage.

Paris Correspondence of the London Egpress.
An unprecedented scene occurred at the
Cirque Napoleon on Monday night during the
performance of Mr.. 3atty, the successor OF Van
Amburgh, who is now exhibiting in Paris. The
moment he entered the wild beasts cage the
lionees was observed 10 be in a terrible rage.
The lions were also rearing and Jumping about,
and Mr.. Batty seemed to have lost his usual
influence over them. The public, fearing to see
HIN torn in pieces, cried $50 out, go out ~ Mr..
Batty took the advice and cautiously Withdrew,
walking backwards. The cause OF the extraor
dinary commotlon in the cage was sooA ascer-
tanned. A few minutes before the commence
ment of the performance the honess had given
birth to a cub, who was thought to be an only
son. The young lion was taken away from her
end given 10 a bitch to suckle; but just as Batty
entered the cage the lioness unexpectedly pro-
(uced second young one, 2nd the ions wanted
10 eat it-a propensity said to be very common
with Wild beasts when in a state of captivity.
The fury of the liOness in defense OF her off.
Hpring, and the ferocious attitude of her COM
lianions in the cage, produced an extraordinary
Danic among the spectators, and several ladies
iainted. After a short pause Batty contrived to
separate the lOness from the cnb, and the latter,
bout the size of cal, was held up by the nape
I the neck for the inspection OF the company.
in Mount Auburn Cemetery, near Boston,
the avenues have been widened and improved.
The receipts OF sales of land last year were UNI
usually large, and the funds on hand amount to
Sl2400O. The total number Of interments is

sEcEssrOn AND TREASON.

If secession is treason and treason is a
crime. as seems to be believed By certain
sclf-constituted judges of human affairs,
we should be glad to hear from them as
to the propriety of the General Govern
ment insisting upon Western Virginia
from the old State. This seces-
sion was effected at the instance of tbs
Federal Government, the people in many
counties most interested never having
voted upon the subject, and in all of them
a real and legal majority was against the
mutilation of their old State, to say moth
ing of the express provision of the Fed
eral Constitution. which says:
New States may be admitted by Congress,
into this Union bat no new State shall b,
formed or ersctsd within the jurisdiction O.
any other State nor any State be formed b.
the junction of two or more States, or part
of States, without the consent Of the Legisla
lures of the States concerned, as well as o
the Congress.
If, as the President intinates, the q
s. Courts should be Immediately estab
lished, in order to begin premiscuou
campaign of hanging and confscation 70

rectly recreant to the Government or the
mass of the people. Men may talk about
it, and about usufpation, but when am
persuaded the American people are the
witnesses, I do not want it by inuendoes
and indirect remarks in high places to be
suggested to me Have assurance; the
knowledge is in their bosonfs."
Others have exclaimed that the present
obstacle must be got out of the way. What
is that obstacle? l make use of strong
word; bat it was to be removed no doubt
II say the intention was assassination,
that the obstacle which the people had
placed here should be got out of the way
Are the opponents of this Government
not yet satisfied? Are those who want
TO destroy our Institutions and change the
character Of the Government, not satisfied
with the quantity of blood which has been
shed9 Are they not satisfied with one
great martyr in this place If my blood
must be shed because / vindieate the
Union, remember that the blood of the
martyr is the seed of the church

One word about the amendments to the
Constitution. In conversation with Pres
ident Lincoln last February, he Indicated
his desire for an amendment 70 the Con-
stitution compelling the rebelliuus States
to send Senators and Representatives to
Congress because it is part of the doctrine
of secession that States might withdraw
their Senators and Representatives or re-
fuse to elect them. Now We find Con-
gress persistently refusing admission to
the Representatives and daily imposing
new burdens of law and taxation on the
unrepresented South. / regard this as .
fundamental error I never insisted or
eneroachments on the Constitution, and ]
stand prepared to resist them to-day
Would TO God the whole American peo
pie could be assembled here to-day as YOU
are, and could witness the great struggle
going on to preserve the Constitution ol
their fathers. They would soon settle the
question if they could only see the kint
of spirit manifested in the effort to breal
up the principles of free Government.

Abolition philanthropy.

In South Carolina. Georgia and Alabama,
there is an excess of freedmen. As cur sol

sent their slaves to the centre. In these
places, owing to drought and poverty, the
people are unable TO sustain this excess Of
population. If we do not assist them we
drive the Southern people to another system
of oppression. If not assisted, 80, 600 freed

wretched freedmen wanted. Observe what
they got: At the conclusion of Gen. Fish's
appeal, the following resolution was offered
by the Rev. DIR. cheeEer--lt passed, and the
meeting adjourned:
Resolved, That the black race of the South
have. in every respect, the same national and
constitutional right as the white man, and
have natural and inalienable right TO life,
liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. That,
as the right of suffrage for the protection OF
these rig ghts is deemed natural and necessary
for the blacks, and that the peace Of the ma.
