Testimonial 10 Captain .Naur,.-
You will. perhaps, be- surprised to
learn tina, no less sum that fifteen
thousand dollars has already been
raised in England as a testimonial
to Captain N. +. Maury. the former
superintendent Of the Washington
Observatory. in acknowledgment
and appreciation of the eminent and
disinterested services. which, through
forty years of incessant labor, Cap
tain Maury has rendered to science
and mankind" The Duke Of Suth-
erland heads the list, and the other
names are chiefly those of men who
sympathized with the South during
the war.-LonHOn Cor. PhiladrlphJn

and INDIGNANT at the effort to iorce its adoption
upon them. The CRY OF mo taxation without:
lcgtslation" has been raised by them, as was that
of''no taxation without repres entatiOn" by the
united colonies in 1776; and the example OF our
revolution of that year Is frequently q loted as
worthy OF emulation by them. The opposition
to the scheme Is open, bold. ana undisguised
end decidedly of revolutionary tendency.
The bold expression of their feelings BY the
people OF New Brunswick has already forced the
Government from its position so strongly favor
inc the Canadian scheme, and is fastening the
same result in Nova Scotia. About the first of
April last the Provincial Parliament voted for
the adoption of The Quebec scheme, and the
Governor, who had been considered an anti
coniederatIonist approved It, mncH to the sur
prise OF his council, who had been el cred as
nti.confederatlonists. It was naturally sup.
posed that there would be dissolution OF
Parliament, but the Governor declined to
submit the question to the, peoples; and instead
OF dissolution OF Parliament the reslgna-
tion OF the Cabinet members followed. The
Governor Immediately organized another coun-
Gil, composed of contederatlonists, and pro-
posed, under urgent hints from the British
Colonial Secretary Caldwell, to push the scheme
through to adoption without reference to the
people. 1t was this which aroused the indlg-
nation OF the colonists. The retiring members
plans OF the home Government in their true
light, and brought the popular will to bear so
strongly and so distinctly upon the members
OF Parliament and OF the Government az to
i'lCt ulShOlullOU. lu6 QueSJlOn Is 10 be SUD-
mltted to the people, and the next Eower
House will be elected upon the direct issue of
confederation or no confederation. BY our latest
advices, published Sunday, 1t will be seen
that the elections, the first of which win take
place next Friday, aIe likely to result in the
total defeat OF the COME lerationists.
The United States will watch these important
movements with interest. The people OF the
North British Provinces, in defeating the con
federation Echeme, are carrying out the priucl-
pies of our Monroe doctrine, the application of
which to our Southern neighbors has always
been subject OF great anxiety to us. The peo-
pie Of the British Provinces, unlike those of
Mexico, are naturally the allies of the United
States, in sympathes, principles, habits, and
ideas, and are equally interested with us in
opposing the establishment of monarch1es on
this continent of republican institutions. Con-
federation is not union in our sense; and the
success Of the Observation-Disclosures will be
cause for reioicins iu this country as a
direct triumph OF republican principles over
lnonarchical schemes. -

Congress and the President.

IRON the W0ftd.
The six months since the beginning of the
session have merely widened the breach between
the Executive and Legislative branch OF the
Government. In the appeal to the people in the
fall elections it is desirable to 6nd some point
OF view adapted to the candid portion of the
Republican party. To Democrats, the sound
ness of President Johnson's policy seems self
evident; the radicals have prejudged It. and
their minds are closed against conviction. For
the former argum ent is supe riuous; on the lat
ter IL would be wasted. 1t is 10 the middle class
TO those moderate Republicans who regret that
their party stands in opposition to the Pres.
dent, that all reasonings from which any result
is expected must be addressed. 1t should, there
fore, be the constant study OF sincere recon-
structionists to discover some mode of present
ing the subject calculated to satisfy fair and
honest minds tnctured with Republican pre- u
dlces In an attempt OF this kind, we will begin
with some distinctions which we hope to make
clear
There are two classes of questions which NAV
arise in respect to our political system One
class relates TO the partition Of powers between
the Federal and the State Governments; the
other, to the organization by which the granted
and the reserved powers are respectively exer-
cised. Unless we succeed IN making this dis
tinction intelligible, nothing we can say on re-
construction will be OF any use. The Constitu.
tion grants certain powers to the General
Government, and reserves certain other powers
| TO the States. We wish the reader to perceive
that the dividing line which separates the State
and Federal powers, and the question on which
side OF It any particular power may lie, is very
different from the question who may awfullY
exercise the powers so granted or the powers so
reserved. In general terms, the granted powers
are to be exercised by the Federal Government

The Gold ExpOrt-Great Strength of the
Treasury.


From me Times.
The cold export of the past week is worthy of
special notice, and reflects the highest rs well
as most gratifying credit upon our public and
mercantile finances A money crisis peEding in
England, the result of vast cotton speculations
at Liv erpool, and of extraordinary stock gam
bling = on the limited liability principle of
finance and banking association sanctioned by
recent act of Parliament-in London, and a war
crisis threatened on the Continent, caused a
sudden and pressing demand on the New York
market, early in the week, for reliet abroad.
II was no ordinary request for the settlement OF
balances, as these in the received mercantile
sense, are believed not be Immediately against
this sice, but an urgent appeal toeur bankers
and merchants to anticipate their future remit
tances in gold or its assured equivalent, and to
draw as little against their present balances as
possible, looking to The relative dearne9s OF,
and pressing need for, money in LIVERPOOL ana
London, as com pared with its ease in New York.
This appeal was promptly responded to with
nearly nine millions OF gold coin, in three or
four days after the so-called critical news came
to hand. II was done, too, with equal alacrlty
and convenience. The means were at ready
command; ii was q genuine pleasure TO give
them instant despatch.
The gold was forthcoming without putting up
the price even so much as one per cent, or
greatly exciting the noted gold room down
town, although something OF a harvest of specu-
lation was hoped for on that arena when the
news arrived mere. But the Government was
on hand to supply so much of this sudden de-
mand as could not be answered by the sums of
gold interest recently paid out of the treasury,
but still held in good part in the banks. And
the gold was parted with at the going rate of
the market with no stinted or grudging hand,
and should tho later news be construed 10 re-
quire double or tive-fOd the sums OF last week,
we have reason to believe that 1t will not be
withheld. Since the first of July last the trea-
hna of a nl nBAtN

Failure OF the Canadian Confederation
Scheme,
From the Herald.

From the Herald.
1t is already apparent that the confederation
scheme so vigorously agitated and advocated by
English officials in British North America,
though probably success in Canada, is fail
ure in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, and that
1t is never likely to be acceptable to the people
OF those provinces. The people fail to appre.
ciate the policy of the officials, and see in the
proposed scheme only additional taxation with.
out additional security. Even in the Canadas,
where the confederation idea originated. and TO
which province it presents the greatest number
of advantages, the people cannot be said to be
heartily in favor of it. There, however. the
nnscrupulous politicians succeeded in forcing
the scheme through the provincial Parliament
and secured its adoption; but the failure in Nova
Scotia and New Brunswick promises to be SIG.
nally disastrous There the people are not
merely opposed to the scheme-they are aroused
