CONGRESSIONAL ELECTION LAW.
Iu.ts-c woodruff Decides the Law
Constitutional.

tOustttulIOnaf.
New York, November 2.-There was
an immense concourse in the United
States Circuit Court Room this morn
inc, awaiting the decision Of Judges
Woodruff and Blatchford on points pre-
sented yesterday, involving the consti-
tutionality of the new election law.
Judge Woodruff then gave the decision
of the Court, that the law was constitu-
tional He said that after having con-
sidered the arguments presented by
counsel for the defense, the reflection
of the Court led them to the opinion that
act OF Congress OF May !, 1870, in rela
ton to elections, Is no Infringement
upon the rights OF voters and does not
embody any attempt TO prescribe to the
State OF New York or to any other
State the condition Of the right of suf-
frage. lie therefore decided that the
indictment should he sustained and
the demurrer overruled. When Judge
Woodruff had announced the decision,
District Attorney Davis arose and
moved that judgment be now passed
upon the prisoner. Had he the
slightest doubt OF the guilt OF
the accused he would never press
this, but he had proof that the prisoner
had registered in more places than one,
and moreover he had a record OF hi
conviction and imprisonment for felo
Nous oaense, by which he was deprived
of all right to vote in any State of the
Union. He feltit to be his duty to press
for Judgment according to the statute
Stoughton, for the defense, protested
against the prisoner being sentenced
with untimely haste, merely because hC
had been once before convicted.
Judge Woodruff suspended the sen
tence until tomorrow to give the coun
sci time to show why the sentence, un
der the statute, should be mitigatcd il
the present case.

The New Governor Of Utah.

WASHINGTON, November 2.-Nincent
Vaughan who was. yesterday, appointed
Governor of Utah in the place OF Gov
ernor Shatlcr deceased, was an officer
in the Confederate service until the close
of the war, when he was selected 10 fill
one of the minor professorship at the
University OF Alabama, which he held
until last spring In consequence ofa po-
litical difficulty between Ryland Ran
dolph, editor of the notorious rebel
sheet, the T,lsca'oosa Monitor, and a
young student named Smith, son
of the Federal General Gusta-
vus 4. Smith, in which both
were shot, Vaughan was compelled
to leave his home, his life being pub
liclv threatened by the friends Of Ran
dolph. His disabilities were removed
bv Congress at its last session TO enable
him to accept the appointment Of Sec
retary of the Territory OF Utah, to
which he had been nominated by the
President and confirmed 10y the Senate.
He has been in Utah but a few months
and, although a gentleman Of education,
it is thought here that he is entirely toe
young and inexperienced in public If
fairs to fiji such a position, wl,h It's at
tendant complications on the question:
of polygamy, and by no means mates
for Brigham Young.

GENERAL GRANTS CAMPAIGN FROM THE
WILDERNESS, on an enlarged scale, is repro
duced in the present German invasion of
France. AS Grant at every point, in and out
Of the Wilderness, wherever he could find the
enemy, fought him to cut him up, and to divide
his forces, and to flank them, and to get ahead
of them, and cut them Of from Richmond, so
the Prussian generals from the frontier opera
tions of Saarbruck, Wssembourg, Woerth,
Haguenau, Froeschweiller, &C., have been
marching and fighting to cut up, envelop,
divide and cut off the retreat of the French
army to Paris. SO far, too, this campaign of
King William has been marked by greater sue
cesses than the famous fighting and hanking
campaign of General Grant.

The Sermon. Of Yesterday.

Interest in church services improves,
though slowly. Yesterday the attendance at
the several places of worship was better than
it has been since society went to the country,
leaving behind few others than barbarians
and infdels. Society, however, is gradually
returning. Nearly all the summer costumes
have been exhibited at the watering places;
the pocketbook of papa is beginning to feel
the effects Of frequent acquisitions upon it. and
so mamma and the girls are coming home.
In half dozen Sundays more our aristo-
cratic churches will be well filed by the
''beauty and fashion" Of the metropolis, and
then religion will again flourish in all the
grandeur of beatitude.
But yesterday was only the advance courier
OF what is shortly to be. Trinity church con-
tanned a fair-sized congregation, which listened
to an interesting sermon on prayer, delivered
by Rev. Mr.. Oberli. DR.. Deems at the Church
of the Strangers, described eloquently those
whom God h0nOrs, while Rev. Mr. WescOtt,
at Plymouth Baptist church, took for his text
the story of the healing of the ten lepers and
discoursed learnedly thereon. At Jane
street United Presbyterian church Rev.
Mr.. Mathews showed that = the Lord
is plenteous in mercy, and the Universalists
at Brevoort Hall were instructed as
to the general and particular love of God.
On the subject of the war in Europe there
were two sermons. Rev. Mr.. Smyth intimated
that Napoleon had been defeated because he
had not put his trust in God, while Rev.
Abel Stevens at the Seventh street Methodist
church. declared the French Emperor to be
the unhappiest man in Europe From what
source either of these clergymen derived their
information we cannot say, but we are ready
to believe that their opinions are the result of
inspiration. Grace chapel was well filed,
and Rev. Mr. Kramer preached on the subject
of temporal prosperity. At all the Catholic
churches the attendance was large the
services impressive as usual, and the sermons
good.
In Brooklyn, Plymouth church has not yet
recovered from the eclipse caused by the
absence of Brother Beecher The tabernacle,
however, was attended by larger number of
persons than have gone there since his depar-
ture. Rev. Mr.. Ballard preached sermon
on government, after announcing that Rev.
James Beecher, brother of the Plymouth
apostle, would officiate there from next Sun
day until the return of the pastor. At the
other churches in Brooklyn aad at all the
places in Newburg, Elizabeth, Jersey City,
Washington and elsewhere, the services and
discourses were oil that could be required.

To THE REPUBLICANS OF FRANCE. We
publish this morning an earnest and eloquent
appeal from General John N. McCler nand, late
of the United States army volunteer service,
to the republicans of France, against Prussia
and in behalf Of Louis Napoleon. AS
review of the European situation by one Of
the shining Western lights Of the democratic
party of the United States this appeal of
General McClernand is interesting, for doubt
less his party generally share IN his opinions
in favor of France and against Prussia. In
point of time, however, his appeal and his
arguments are ''too late" The reign of Napo-
leon is practically at an end; tle empire has
collapsed, and the republic, which General
kcClernand does not recommend, is looming
up in France. General McClernand, there
fore, though Bonapartist, may be ranked
among those Bourbons ''who never forget
-nvthing and who never learn anything"

TIE HERALD CORPS OF EUROPEAN WAR
CORRESPONDENTS. y

We have special correspondents moving
with each division of the opposing forces OF
France and Prussia, and news agencies in the
principal capitals--London, Paris, Berlin, Ma
drid and Vienna-so that nothing of an i'm
portant news character escapes our vigilant
representatives
We do not pretend that our comments upon
the war, or that our opinions upon the proba-
bic success Of either belligerent in contem-
plated movements come by the cable Our
only aim is TO give to the public the fullest,
the most reliable, and the most authentic
operations of the contending armies.
The New York herald., 1870-08-22

26O,O Germans, reinforced from 100, 900
reserves on the frontier who have marched up
| as thcir predecessors advanced.
The grand strategic design, then, is simple
enough with these facts before the reader
viz, to cut Off Bazaine at Metz with the con-
centrated German right wing and centre, or
to give him battle and defeat him with superior
numbers outside Of that city; that being done,
to form second junction with the Crown
Prince at or near Chalons and fall upon Can
roberts hybrid army there with the weight of
| nearly 400, 900 veterans flushed with victory
and armed with captured chassepots and
mitrailleuses, as well as with the needle gun.
A victory there would not only uncover Paris,
but overwhelm it with dismay. This, then,
is undoubtedly the next thing on the pro-
gramme, unless the Crown Prince, who had
arrived on Saturday at Vitry le Francois,
nearing of tho success OF the other two
armies now combined under the command of
King William, whose chief of staff, Moltke,
along with Bismarck and and Room, accom-
pany him, should feel emboldened to continue
his fanking movement and march directly
on Paris by Fere Champeroise and Sezanne.
In such case the French forces at and near
Chalons under Canrobert and MacMabon
would have to give BATTLE retreat or find
themselves situated much as Metz is now.
Should they fight, they would be in peril of an
attack in the rear; should they retreat, there
is little hope of their making any elfectual
resistance eastward Of Paris; should they
stand still 1T Chalons, the road may be cut
between them and the capital That the
French metropolis will brave a siege we are
utterly disinclined to believe, Notwithstanding
the wanton destruction of its beautiful external
pleasure grounds. The values at stake are
too enormous the owners, belonging to all
nationalities, too many and powerful; the COM
mon sense of both France and Europe too
sound. The siege and bombardment of Paris,
with its 100000 inhabitants, and all its
priceless monuments, would be both tragical
enormty and an insane farce. Everybody
knows that the Notifications were originally
intended to Overawe the city of revolutions
itself, rather than to beat off foreign foe,
and the labors recently undertaken have
served to amuse and restrain the dangerous
classes recently infuriated at the government
General TrOchu comprehends this perfectly
well, and, should he ever fire any of those
great guns on the Paris ramparts it will more
likely be against the modern sans culo ties
than against the Germans. At all events, the
decisive hour is at hand, and, undoubtedly
within three days we shall hear the final
knell of the NapoIeonic empire amid despair
ing battles near the banks of the Marne, or
hail its sudden resuscitation by some miracle
of genius and valor. In either case we
believe that the cause of armed monarchism
has received its death blow. In this brim-
ming goblet of blood and tears the nations
have pledged unto each other common aim
and mutual delverance.

Fall Prospects for Music and the Drama.

Fall Prospects for Music and the Drama.
The fall prospects for music and the drama
are highly encouraging, to judge by the bril-
liant programme of the opening season, which
occupied three columns and half in yester-
days HERALD. 1t is well that the managers
Of our theatres have profited by past bitter
experience and will therefore avoid rushing
all together into any single line which may
chance to prove popular. They have tacitly
adopted each his specially. For old comedies
and London pieces the public may confidently
go to Wallack's; for emotional plays of the
modern French scho oil and kindred American
plays, to Days; for spectacular and sensa-
tional plays, to Niblo's; for comic opera and
pantomime, to the Olympic for burlesque, to
Lima Edwards; for opera 5ou6e and ballet,
to the Grand Opera House; for grand Shak-
sperian revivals (after Mr.. Jefferson's present
engagement, to Booths, and for high tragedy
to the French theatre, in Fourteenth street.
The triple constellation of Nilsson, Seebach
and Janauschek would alone be sufficient to
illuminate the whole musical and dramatic
armament of New York in 1870. The enthusi-
asm Of our German population over recent
Prussian victories will doubtless find q vent in
the applause which they will lavish upon these
three great artists, and benefits r behalf of
the wounded soldiers Of the war will yield
unprecedented returns
