The Sflvannah Daily Herald. BY S. MASON. SAMVEL IV. MASON, Editor, YV. T. THOMPSON, Associate Editor. Official Paper of the City. LARGEST CIRCULATION IN THESITT AIN COUNTY FRIDAY FEBRUARY 9, 1806. THE TRIAD OF MR. DAVIS. Rumor from Washington says a delegation of radical Republicans, including General Butler, waited on the President last week, and urged hint tc order the trial of Mr Davis by a military court, to be composed of Gen crals GraDt, Sherman, Thomas and Sheri Ian and that Mr. Johnson respectfully but firmly declined to accede to their wishes, on the ground that such a proceeding would be a violaiion of the Constitution, which confers jurisdiction in all such cafes upon the judicial department of the Government, aod to exercised only in the district where the offence is committed. This statement if true, indicates that it is the purpose of the administration to biing Mr. Davis to trial before the United States Circuit Court of Virginia, when the diffi culties at present in the way, as presented by Chief Justice Chase in his recent letter tp the President, are removed. Although concurring in opinion with the President as to the question of jurisdiction, and according as we do to him a sincere desire to secure to the distinguished prisoner an impartial trial, nevertheless we cannot but deprecate his arraignment before Chiei Justice Chase, for the reason that the Supreme Court of the United States has no appelate jurisdiction confided to it by the laws of the United States, and fjiat tribunal cannot entertain a writ of error, as we bevo been informed by an eminent ju rist, to revise the judgment of the Circuit Court in any case where a party has been convicted of a public offence. The Supreme Court announced that to be the law in 1822, in the case of ex parte Kearnej'. There has been no legislation since that time to vest the Supreme Court with the power of review in such casts. A judicial decision by a single judge could give no 6uch authori tative for£e to his opinions as is contemplated by those who, in common with the President, mske the point that judicial determination is necessary to give solemnity to the opinions entertained on that subject. Mr. Chase has borne so prominent a part in the political acliuu of the Government before and during the late struggle, his opinions have been so often expressed in official action, that no weight could possibly attach to the announce ment of them in a judicial form. His con clusions will be received by the country as foregone conclusions, not the calm utterances of the oracle,of the law, after unbiased and tranquil investigation of the merita of the esse apart from any previous coloring of the mind. Under the circumstances in which the Chiet Justice is placed, it would be un fortunate for him, untortunate for the coun try, unfortunate lor that veneration in which the judiciary is held by the people, that he should be the individual to pronounce with out appeal, upon the question of political right and personal justification springing from the doctrine of secession. Wo think rather than that the matter should be determined in this manner, it would be better for the interests of ety that these political questions should be i_c* —i—. tbv ouiwiuu wiax oj battle has left them. If Congress, in view of the point of difficulty we have suggested, should under take to legislate upon the matter in their present temper, any law they might pass would, it is teared, partake more ot tW.Ylfc lent parlizan spirit which actuates the ma jority than the calm justice of a measure dic tated by a patriotic regard for the public welfare. The stainless purity of the Judiciary no less than the sanctity ot the jury-box lie at the foundation of all free institutions. They constitute the barrier between tyranny and freedom. Political opinions, right! and powers, constitutional limitations and suar- autees, are as nothing, if the rock on which liberty is founded be broken in pieces. If there be a doubt whether secession be a po litical right, an amendment of the constitu tion can settle the question for the future by explicit declaration, but if the ermine ot justice is to have a shade cast upon its purity, then may we have cause to con clude that free institutions are a vain dream. vail, fotnfi hew element of protection thttit M intro, duoed with It, to meet the exigency of the case. That Sew element Is already found, end baa begun its operations in communism.- In this new form of society la the complete solution of both the protection* lata and the free trader'a problem. Communism, while MVIrs no flavors of lfigialatl^TT. la able when felrly extended aa an induatrial system, to oompete with and defy the world. The reaaon la patent in the feet that Union ia more economical in force ana in means than ia aelfishneaa.

And if we were able to make the P | *v rlti » nxrFot fact urea (whioh, in the oaee of togs, their cost.) aa wall as the arttdss themMbrea. we should not fear but that WS oonld part of tho world in the cheyneeerfiheir fabric, tion. If corporation, weilding great capital and directing large bodies of Ignorant and hireling work men can achieve oheap production, a community with eoual capital and a body of workmen who are intelll- £ ent and interested partner, can certainly equal them i efficiency- •• Thus from every point of view, the solution of the questions which now perplex people about protection, free trade, the relations of labor and capital, cheap subsistence, the organization of Industry and the ■olidarity of nations, is found in communism. The Americans do not go to Europe for their ideas, but strike out new ones for themselves. If prairies are to bo reaped they do not cling to the old hand-sickle, but invent a reaping machine. By machinery they have thus revolutionized sewing, watch making, shoe mak ing, fire arms, printing, Ac., sending back the results of their ingenuity to astonish the Old World. They are ready now to do tha same thing for society; and instoad of depending on the old-world system of a protective tariff for their development, they will meet the wretched, worn-out, imbecile social organization that elsewhere prevails, with an invention of unity such as will produce a universal and untaxed plenty undreamed of heretofore." BT TELEGRAPH. We have quoted the argument of The Circular at leDgth as Illustrating the influ ence of machinery on the question of produc tion. It professes to have solved this ques tion through the agency of communism as the means of cheapening production. *‘By machinery they have revolutionized sewing, waicli making, shoe making, fire arms, print ing, &c., sending back the results of their ingenuity to astonish the old world.” Now, if in these arts tho artlzens are able to main tain a competition with the artificers of the old world, why not in the manufacture of cloth and iron, and the other fabrics for which protection is claimed ? -If the workman of the “Wallingford Community" are able to fabricate steel traps, by the invention oflabor- saving machinery, why should protection be required for ladies leather bags f It would surely only require to produoe cheaply every species of manufacture to render pro tection unnecessary. We have no doubt, as asserted by the Editor of The Circular, that the agency in those occupations which have succeeded without the aid cf protection, such as shoe making, watchmaking, the manufacture of fire-arms, &c., has been in a great measure, labor-saving machinery. Nor do we dispute the influence of commuoism in a limited de gree in producing some of the effects claimed for it by The Circular. The reduction in the costs of living among Communists to $2 40 per week for each person, would go farther, it appears to us, iu cheapening the costs of production than labor-saving machi nery; but the question after all, is the ex tent to which the principle of communism is susceptible of applieftion. What would be adapted to a community of the size of Wall ingford would not admit of general applica tion. The experiment, however, is an inter esting one. After several failures in the United States, it is the only one that seems to have met with success. FROM WASHINGTON. A Negro Delegation has an Interview with President Johnson.

PROTECTION AND COMMUNISM. # There is a social body in the United States conducted on tbe principles of communism, called "tbe Oneida aod Wallingford Commu nities.” It has an organ entitled “The Cir cular,” which is an ingenious exponent of its views. Various trades and occupations are carried on successfully within its limits. “The Circular” affirms its belief in the prin ciples of free trade, as consonant to the so cial and industrial system on which tbe com munity of which it is the expositor is founded. It speaks in the following terms in a late issue on the subject: “The TBorECTivE System.—Now that the wir is over, and tbe attention of the arts of peace and the means debt, the dispute between tho tar ill and those of free trade is waxing loud. The quest-on is indeed imminent and must be answered. Khali wo protect home manufactures by duties on im port., and thus enable ogr well-fed mechanics to com pete with th“ poor classes of Europe ? or shall we trust to the lawa of trade and development working In an unrestricted manner, to regulate the general prosperi- tv that of our nation and ourselves included ? ■ “The subject is a complex one, and susceptible of befog viewed In many ways. A strong argument—In fact we oo^ciuBive one—against s protective t-- u is an *riwto?*irrier-an obstruction of communication—an assertion” of antagonism ofUt** tercsts between nations, and as suottsjs opposed to tha spirit of the ago, which everybody and by all means is breaking down barriers and blending ti’** interests of all nations in one. On the other hand, as’ applied to this country and the present social basic, free Ar*do seems to offer a formidable impediment to our mane- factoring development and success. It le true that our people aro better educated and better fed mar the European masses, and Ame rican ingenuity has got the start, perhaps of tho world, in the disoovery end application of labor- saving machinery. These facte give us on advantage lu the race of production; but still with these things, in our favor, it is hard to see how under the present state of things, we can compete with foreign labor, when it la stated that a book or periodical can be Im ported for two cents from England, that would oost fourteen cents to manufacture here. “Our own experience os a manufacturing communi ty illustrates the situation In opposite ways. In the case of steel-traps, by the invention of tabor-oaring machinery, and the production of a better article than the foreign trap, we succeeded independently of protection in securing a market for our goods, and tin ally in superseding with them the use of foreign traps in the hands of American trappers. In the case of certain descriptions of ladies' leather bogs I gachels, on tbe other hand, we are Informed that immunity manufacture of them is likely to be rferred with, and for the present arrested, by the jrtaion of foreign goods at a rate lower than we produce them. he conclusion which we draw from the premises e us is, that a high protective tariff will not pro- rbecause it is opposed to the sentiment of freedom inity that is growing strong to the earth, and ill 1 progress works against it, Bnt wa Infer on the ther hand, that free trade alone will bear very t on the manufacturing prosperity of the country fta now situated; sad that If this system Is topee- ¥, January, to offer sentiments ot oondolence on the death of his father-in-law, the late king ot Belgium. The emperor replied is fallows: " Gzra.EMx>-: I thank yon for the sympathy yon have manifested in the grief of tha empress end myself for the trouble that has befallen us. In such a misfortune there is much to consols ns in tbs remembrance of tbe eat and noble examples that have been left us as an erltage by the late king of Belgium. ‘ He, like ourselves, In accepting the throne that a people offered him, found a nation to oonetitute and a government to found.

He will Introduce his Inimitable Performing Rus sian Horae C Z A R.” This horse was raised In Southern Russia by a Cir cassian soldier. Like the Arabians, the nomadic people of his tribe form the strangest and most In violable attachments to their unexcelled horses.— They make their favorite conrsere their special com panions. and train them to be very fleet and Intelli gent. This Circassian, during one of his wandering tours, became very needy, and soon found eager pro posers for the purchase of his splendid horse. At last he consented to part with him. He was brought before the purchaser, and there ensued a scene that has been need as a subject of a poet’s pen. At a sig nal from him, the horse, “ With flowing tall and flying mane, Wnh nostrils never stretched by pain, Mouth bloodless to tiie bit or rein ; And feet that Iron never shod, And flanks onscarred by spur or rod. The bounding horse—the wild, the free— Like wave that dashes on the sea, Came proudly thundering on." There stood the noble horse, the admiration of every beholder. No steed of the Tartar, or Ukraine or Arab breed could be more beautifully formed.— Never did Landseer or Rosa Bouheur see or imagine a more perfect animal. He will also Introduce his thoroughbred Trick Horse, “ANDY J0TIN80NV’ ills comic pony “JANUARY,” and his EDUCATED I MULES. lie will execute his FLYING LEAP, or Leap ior Life, every Afternoon and Evening. auctions a l e s" SAW-MILL AT Bell, Wylly & Ch,i s , ia „.
