The vacaton of the President or the utter
want Of authority Of the National lntegencer to
speak for him, is shown to-day by "A statement of
that journal contradcting its paragraph of Saur-
day, which is TO the effect that the Executive will
not rush precipitately 10 a complete notification
of the acts of the Commanders Of the Military
Districts. In its issue Of Saturday it predicted
Just the reverse.
The Surratt trial is going on all right. Judge
Fisher, although quite III, appeared on the bench
this morning, thus avoiding all legal technicaties
arising from a change of Judges The defence

Mr.. Wilson then continued and said that the

not speak in q city where lynch law reigned and
men were huchered without trial He alluded TO
the case of two colored men who were arrested
last night charged with numbering a farmer named
McMann, few days ago, and lodged in jail, but
were taken out this morning by large mob and
hung up, but the rope breaking, they were shot TO
pieces in the Court House yard, where their bod

Judge Fisher Of the 4. 5. Supreme Court, Of
the District Of Columbia, is still confined to bis
house by sickness, but the TRIAL OF Surrat will be
continued to-day.
The counsel for the defence claim that the
examination Of their witnesses will develop many
new and interesting facts, the witnesses having
been afraid to relate all they knew about the con-
spracy during the excitement Of the trial in 1860
Those best informed believe that there will be
no July session Of Congress

no hope that the President will revoke General

RUSSIA.
Correspondence Of the New York Evening Post.
II M I..... 10 1AE.

Correspondence Of the New YORK Evening Post
PARIS, June y, 1867.
M. Edouard Talbot has Just published book
on Russia, entitled, Europe for Europeans So
lie aims TO demonstrate the essentially Asiatic
character of even the modern Russians and the
danger that exists lest this half-civilized Tartar
horde should absorb all Western Europe with the
voracity of Attila or Genghis Khan " Russia
observes M. Talbot, in summing up his concu-
sions, occupies one-seventh Of the hahitahle ter
ritory OF the entire globe. II is hity-one times
large as France, and reCkons eighty-two million
two hundred and seveny-two thousand inbabi-
tants. Russia has advanced, moreover, within a
stones throw OF Paris. From Varsovia, recently
erected into the outer stronghold Of the Auscovte
barbarian, TO Paris, which is still the capital Of
the Gallo-RomAn civilization, Is nine hundred
miles--less than the distance between Paris and
Nice. An express tram requires but twenty -iiVe
hours to pass from the French to the Russian from
tier. Europe and Russia are henoeforh face to
face. Civilization baIbarism, that is the ques-
ton"
LOpinion Nationdle, commenting upon this
book, observes that "the Russians are NOT Slaves,
but Tartars and that a coup de all of the extent
of their actual possessions is sufficient to awaken
grave nquetude in case the spirit OF their ances-
tors should incte them TO fresh attempts at con-
quest Towards the West the march has already
been made. Narsoyia, recently absorbed into
Russia, is planted like a wedge in the very heart
of Germany, and thence barbarism menaces the
Rhine, the Danube, and the Adriatic. Towards
the East, Russia mounts TO its original sources
BY the conquest of Turkestan d" it has begun to
discipline the hordes that perhaps even at this mo-
ment il is intending TO hurl upon Europe, as the
simeon hurls the grass-hoppers upon the wheat
From Bokhara it threatens the English Indies,
and lays a strong hand upon Persia, cradle OF our
own Aryan race. 1t encloses Turkey in a ring OF
fire between the regiments of Pruth Of Caucasus,

While the reconstruction acts clearly do not
confer the power Of arbitrarily removing civu oil-
GERS in the South. as it has been exercised byGen-
erals Pope aud Sheridan it is somewhat romarka-
Bile that both the friends and enemies OF those acts
have generally supposed that they did. The pres
ldents veto was based on the idea that the bill
surrendered the whole government Of the South
TO the military commanders leaving the people
no rights but such the discretion or he Fancy Of
these commanders might grant, and reserying to
hm the president control over their acts, eN-
cept lar TO decide questions OF life and
death.
Practically, it would have been well il this were
really so at least If the exercise of such power
had not been now disputed by the president aud
cabinet. For almost without exceptions, the disc-
plue of the southern commanders has been wise
and Just, and was facilitating the peaceful and
healthy progress Of social and political reconstruc-
ton. IL will be a misfortune now for the whole
country if Mr.. johnson turns back in his policy OF
sustaining aud enforcing the reconstruction acts, AS
he understood them, aud as the country under
stood them, and nterieres serously with the pres
ent course Of things in the South. He has gained
great credit for himself, and soteued the Judgment
Of the country against him, by hls faithful accept
ance Of the bonds put upon him and upon the
South by Congress. Nothing has done so much
TO rcpress the dangerous elements Of the South TO
command peace in its borders, and TO set the great
body Of its people hannonously at work TO evoke
order out Of their previous chaos, the assurance
that the president was alike powuress and indis-
10 is far better to waive iniormalties than to
encounter new dangers The president, we are
glad 10 see, hesitates in his COURSE and we hope
hesitation will end IN adherence to the policy he
has SO wisely pursued since Congress adjourned
