The impression was prevalent tlnooghout the country that the execution ot Captain , Wirx, of Andersonville notoriety, would be | immediately succeeded by the trial of Mr. Davis. Justice to the accused and respectful defer ence to the popular desire for bis immediate arraignment before an intelligent aud compe tent tribunal, if he is to be tried at all, it was thought, would stimulate the government to prompt and final action in the premises ; and this expectation bad been greatly strength ened bv the occasional confirmatory intima t: ns w hich escaped from the lips of the Piesidt-nt in his Irequent interviews with de putations of American citizens soliciting the exercise of his constitutional prerogative ot pard‘ in. It would seem, however, that a mine of ttc.micai difficulties, which lay concealed in the subs:erranean depths of English jurispru dence, has been suddenly sprung upon the Executive and the public by the prolound erudition of Chief Justice Chase ; aud that our readers may have a perfect comprehen sion of the wonderful discovery, we give the following paragraph which has been going the rounds of the Northern press : ‘'The President supposes that the case ot Jeff. Davis may be tried before the Circuit Court in Virginia, of which Chief Justice Chase is presiding Justice, Virginia being wituin his circuit. But the Chief Justice shows that the time which would elapse be tween the meetiug of the Virginia Court and the Supreme Court at Washington, would be so short that it would be folly to com mence a proceeding that would have to be abandoned. But the Chief Justice suggests another obstacle—that the District is sub jected to martial law, and that he would be unwilling to hold a court in a State uuder military control, UDtil C digress shall have had an opportunity to consider and act ou the whole subject. He is of opinion that a civil court in a district under martial law can only act by the sanction and under the su pervision of the military power, and that it would lie unbecoming in Justices of the Su preme Court to exercise jurisdiction uudtr such conditions.” It this statement is rename, it seems iu the fir»t place, that Judge Chase does not consider it consonant with the transcendent dignity of bis Court to sit within a district held under martial law; and secondly, he cannot preside over a Court in Richmond, bi cause he has to be present to preside over one in Washington. It strikes us that the two objections of the Chief Justice do not tally. Is not Washington under mi itary control? Was it not on that very ground that the trial of Payne, Mrs Surratt aud others, was justified? As will be recollected, an indictment has been found against Mr. Davis in the District of Columbia, but upou this the difficulty presented itself that Davis had uot been per sonally present in the District, aud could uot therefore be tried and convicted thee, says a cotemporary, without overriding very clear aud positive decisions of Chief Justice Marshall, which any Court would be slow to do. It was doubtless this qonsideration, in conjunction with others, possibly, of less importance, that has influenced the Presi dent to postpone the trial for a while longer, or until the State of Virginia is fully restored to the Union and the withdrawal of the mili tary from within her borders; when the mete technical difficulties presented by Judge Cuase will have been removed. The New York World, commenting upon tbe singular course of the Chief Justice in this matter, announces a theoretical solution which is cot without plausibility. That journal conjectures that the real reasons of the Judge go deeper. That, in all proba bility be shares the State suicide opinions of Sena or Sumner. It is quite certain, at least, that he opposes the return of the revolted States without an act of Congress re-admil liog them. By bolding a Court in Virginia, previous to such an act, he would virtually renounce the cardinal principle of the Radi cal party, by whom he hopes to be elected President. It is well known the United Slates Judges have no jurisdiction, and cau hold no courts except within the limits of Staten. A. United States Judge holding Mr. Sumner's opinions, could not bold a court in one of the revolted States, previous to its re-admission by Congress. Mr. Chase is therefore too wary a politician, says the Worid, to put bis personal influence and the weight of bis great office, in the scale against the doctrines of bis radical supporters. Florida News. We collate the following items irom the Jacksonville (Fla.) Union of the 18tb inst.: Col. Jno. Broward, an old and respected citizen of that State, died on tbe 15th instant, at the advanced age of 70 years. Hon. David S. Walker, an associate Jus tice of the Supreme Court, has been an nounced as a candidate for Governor under the new constitution, and we presume will be elected without opposition. Maj. W. W. J. Kelly, of Pensacola, late Paymaster in C. 8. Navy, has beqn announced as a candidate for Lieut. Governor on the ticket with Judge Walker. Mr. K. is well known to the citizens of Savannah, having been assigned to duty ou this station for some time. Dr. Holmes Steele, one of the able editors of the Union, has been announced as a can didate for tbe State Senate in the district composed of the counties of Clay and Duval. There are a host of candidates for the sim gle seat to which the State will be entitled In the next Congress, among whom are Col. M L.od of Columbia, Mr. Culpepper of Hamilton, Mr. Hogue of Leon, Doctor Ligou of Gadsden, Col. Ives of Columbia, and Ma jor Lanson of Jackson county. Col. Lewis G. Piles, of Alachua county, who distinguished himself at a daring and skillful officer ia the memorable battles around Richmond, and was severely wound ed. is a candidate for the office of Comptrol ler. Tbe Union contains also the excellent ad drew of Governor Marvin to the Florida Convention in tbe last hour* of Its session Gen. Robert C.

Mackay, of Souih Carolina, as Secietary General, with a considerable Dumber ol dis- Anguished Masons from every part of the United Stales. Among them were Illustri ous Brothers Col Win. S Rockwell.of Geor gia, H Shaw, of California, Henry Buist, H. W. Schroder, and B. Kush Campbell, of South Carriina, Col. Tal P. Sh.ffuer, of Kentucky, Charles T McClensuhin, of New York, and Lucius R. Paige, ol Massa chusetts. Tbe Courier says : This high body of distinguished Masons did much work, their meetings having beeu suspended during the war. Among other things .1 interest to tne craft we miy notice that they appointed lil Bro. Col.Tal'P.Bb.iff ner Speci n Deputy for Europe, and elected the following persons Honorable members of their Council: His Majesty Chailes XV., King of Swe den and Norway. Hi» ftoyai Highness Oscar, Crown Prince of »wedeu and Norway. His Majesty Christian IX., King of Den mark. His Royal Highness Constantine Nicola vich, Grand Duke of Russia. Illustrious Brother Henry Buist was elect ed Treasurer-General iu place of Acbilie Le Prince, deceased. The Supreme CoudcU adjourned late Sat urday night, after being in session several days, to continue their session ou the third Monday of March next, 1866, at the City of Washington, D. C. The prolane world, as Masons call them, are perhaps not aware that this is the Mother Council of all the Supreme Councils of the woild. It comprises among its members some of the most distinguished men of this couutiy and Europe. General Pike occupies the position of the Supreme Grand Commander of the Council, and upon its convocation delivered a most erudite and eloquent address, reviewing tbe condition ot tbe Masonic Order throughout the United States and iu Europe. We make the following extract from the opening ot the address : Illustrious Brethren and Sovereign Grand Com manders : At the close of the great harvest of that pitiless reaper, Death, and, while having paused through mere weariness he rests, we assemble, from States widely distant from each other tnd not long since mad with all the direful passions of civil war, to kneel together once more around the altar of Scot tish Masonry, to lament the dead aud to labor lor the benefits of society, our country and humanity. During four terrible years our Temples have beeu for the most pan deserted, the ashes ol the fires upon our altars have been cold, aud the brethren have met each other as enemies or ceased to commune with each other. Isolated in most of our States from the outer world, we have had no correspon dence with foreign bodies. No attempt has been made to enlarge the borders of the At c.eut AcC.pted Scottish Rite. Our sub ord nvte bodies ceased to meet. The Veil of the Temple has indeed been rent in twain, our working tools were broken, aud our columns lay overthrown and prostrate. Iu war when hell legislates for humanity aud all the horrible influences that can de base and demoralize,men are busily at work. Masonry can do little eveD to soften the hor rors aud temper the hatreds of a strife that she was powerless to avert. In some quar ters, iudeed, her laws were sought to be trampled under toot and Masouic priveleges lobe denied to those whom their brethren ibought it Masonic piety to brand as rebels. They torgot that wheu States were arrayed agaiust Slates in an open war of gigantic proportions, Masonic chat ity required them to that their breturen who fought for political independence, however much they might be in error, were sincerely and honestly obeying their conviclious ot duty without any ol the moral guilt of treasop; aud they lorgel that, in holdtug them to huve torleituel their rights as Masons they, them selves, were led by their passions to violate their Masouic obligations. But these were uot permitted to make Masonry, and least of all, Scottish Masonry, a party to the civil war waged between Slates. They couipro mitted themselves alone, and the fire aud smoke of the battle scorched not her gar ments. They earned the condeinoaliou aud contempt of the world of Masoury ; but M-a soury itself so acted as to be entitled to hon or aud admiratiou. With peace tlie opportunity for useful la bor returns to the Ancieul and Accepted Scottish Kite. We shall soon be prepared lo extend il throughoutour jurisdiction ; ami 1 trust that beloro three more years elapse it will number its initiates by thousands, and its lodges and higher bodies he found in every State. During their stay 111. Bros. Gen. Albert Pike, Colonel Tal. P. Shaffner and A. T. C. Pierson have beeu the guests ot 111 Bro. A. G. Mackey. The two latter left with Bro.

This phrase embraces not only the observ ance of good faith between nations, but those lesser moralities that in diplomacy shuns tbe utterance of falsehood or tbe con cealment of truth. It was part of the busi ness of diplomacy in a less enlighteued period than the present, not only to obtain the se crets of cabinets by the free use of gold, but to obtaiu advantages in negotiation by finesse and other arts which were the oppo site ol fair and candid dealing. Meu were chosen as ambassadors more for their in genuity iu circuinveuliug an oppouenl than for their ability—more for tbeir powers of sophistry than lor their knowledge of public law and tbe usages of nations. One of the evidences of civilization is that the deceptive practices of diplomacy have been superseded by the iugeuuousness that springs from the love of truth. The negociator of our day would disdain to employ the arts that form erly constituted the meaus of triumph in diplomatic arrangements. Candour is as much the requisite ol the perfect diplomat as courtesy. All who have taken the trouble to trace the progiess of diplomacy will admit the truth of this represeulntion. Nearly allied witli this improvement is that which rejtcis in parly controversy the devices that no less involve a breach of houor, to obtain a political advantage. Iu this respect we have retrograded. Party spirit has in our day banished, not only the courtesies, but that refined seuse of honor which shuns a breach of its rules as much as they would a crime that implies moral deg redation. But party disputes aud contests lor victory at .he polls have lowered the standard of political morality. It was ouly recently that one of the Democratic leaders at the nominating convention in Albany, N. Y., of that party, disclosed a purpose com municated by a leader on tbe other side that must have been communicated in confidence, implied if not expressed. Tue effect of tbe disclosure was to impair tbe strength of the party, aud to augment that of their adversa ries. Such ia the effect of that weakening of personal responsibility on men who acting collectively, imagine they may violate with impuuily the obligations of that moral law which they consider imperatively binding in dividually. The party orator who trausends the line of strict propriety imposed by a re fined sense of honor is not excusable for such transgression, because it ia dono for tbe interests of bis parly and not hia person al advantage. That the tendency of our party conflicts ia to degrade and lower the standard of political morality, is indisputa ble. While iu the intercourse of nations the interests of truth and the triumph of princi ple have marked the records of modern dip lomacy, party spirit has, in the fierceness of its zeal, contaminated our domestic dissen sions. White Labor for Cotton Culture. —The Charleston News is informed “by a gentle man from the Southwest, that he has made an arrangement at the North for the cultiva tion of one thousand acres of cotton land by fifty Swedish laborers; He says that this plan is being largely adopted in Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi and Arkansas. He also informs us that Northern capitalists are readily advancing capital for tbe purpose of planting ou shares ; that societies are formed that furnish labor for a commission, and that the effect has already been to advance lunda that four months ago could have been easily bought for S2O to S6O an acre.

A correspond cot <>f tbe New York Lx - press writing ir in Washington under data of Nov 17th iust., says— “ It is very dear to my mind from various unmistakable signs, that the ultra radical fanatics intend ou the opening of Congress, 10 “cut fantastic tricks before high heaven,” that if it does not make “angels weep,” may cause the radicals themselves to shed some bitter tears ere they a. e the eud and final result of tbeir ins ine proceedings. My hope, however, is that there are euougb conserva tives amoug the Republican members tp overrule tbe fanatic il portion, and if not, tbe whole party are destined to go down. _ If they attempt to oppose the President’s policy of reconstruction, and to insist on negro suffrage at tbe Sooth, they are des tined lo overwhelming defeat, for the result of the reoent elections is no indication of support to such doctriues, but on the con trary, these results were an endor-ement of the President's policyand had they ven tured to promulgate a platform in opposition to that policy, or in lavor of negro suffrage, they would have been signally defeated. ” IN GENERAL. —Among the Southerners at present iu New York is Ex-Rebel Gen. Joseph E. Johnston. Tbe Herald says General John ston has bad many visitors since his arrival in that city. lie is in excellent health, and represents the submission of the people of the South generally ,to tbe national govern ment as unreserved and in good faith. —A young Scotch nobleman, still a minor, has been lately playing at a German water ing place, losing on an average £ISOO a day! —A dilapidated wit observed ou the morn - ing alter a debauch “Had Leander prat iced swimming with half tbe perseverance of my head; he'd never have been drowned !” —Mobile papers of the 1 Ith instant report that tbe steamer Duke was burned on tbe Tombigbee river, with three hundred bales of cotton. —Tbe suit of the government against the Methodist Publishing House in Nashville, has been dismissed, and i‘ is supposed that the property will at ouce be turned over to the agents of the church. The War in Brazil.—The Emperor ot Brazil had issued a proclamation utging a vigorous continuation of the war. The a lies are very sanguine that Lopez, the President of Paraguay, must soou succumb, and it is their intention, on the occurrence of such event, to compel him to submit to liber al navigation arrangements for tbe interior waters of bis country, which will create a heavy demand for American steamers.
