Wednesday March 14th, 1866. The Radicals are jubilant over tho result of the New Hampshire election. They say this is the first voice from the people, and shows how emphatically they will condemn tho President. But nothing else could have boen expected. The President cannot put forth his full strength until he surrounds himself by men who earnestly sympathise with his policy, aud who put the Executive government with all its power and patronage on the side of the Presidout If; as the Radicals confidently anticipate the Connecticut elec - tions go in their favor, you may look for the ‘Central Directory ” to take a more aggressive attitude against the President. They are only biding their time. There is a very great uneasiness among some of the magnates of the Radical party, that in some way or other, and at some time by fair means or by foul, the southern people or some portion of them will be paid for tbeir emancipated slaves. Heuce, consequently the necessity of an amendment of the constitution on this point is constantly thrown out. Yesterday the idea was embodied in one of Senator Lane’s proposed amendments to the constitution. Mr. Lane only pro posed five amendments at once. This is modest on his part. If every member thus restricted himself the number of amendments would not be much over one thousand. As regards a general payment for emancipated slaves, it is hardly to be considered with in the limits of possibility. But if ever reason and justice resume their sway in this country, there are some persons whom* right to be paid for their slaves will bo very strong. Take the case of minors who had no complicity with the war, or Union ists, or unmarried women. It will be very difficult, un der that clause of the Constitution which provides “that private property shall not be taken for public use except in just compensation,” to refuse to con sider the claims of the above-named classes of per sons. The rejection of the bill for the admission of Col orado in the Senate, created some surprise. It is true, the mere bandfull of men there did not warrant the existence and great franchise of a State, but Con gress has been so much in the habit of admitting these “half-finished ’* States, “sent before their time into this breathing world,” that it was supposed the same policy would be carried out now. But Colorado had placed an obstacle in her own path, by restricting the. right of suffrage to *• whit,c citizens.” This horrible word “ white ” was a crime of such deep dye that it could not be forgiven. Mr. Sumner said, in making this distinction, “they had fallen more in xolitical standing than they had fallen off' in population.” The bill to seeure civil rights to all persons, as it passed the House yesterday, undertakes to define what it means, as follows: All persons born in the United .States, without regard to color, arc declared citi- zents; “ shall have the same l ight to make and enforce contracts, to aue, be parties and give evidence, to in herit, purgiaae, leaee, sell anTT convey real aud per sonal property, and to have as full and equal benefit of all laws and proceedings for tin* security of persons and property, as is enjoyed by white citizens,” and Splendid Strategy on tlie part of John Bull. The N. Y\ World of the 14th says : “ The following comes to us from the Fenian headquarters in Union square.” The other NewTork papers treat the thin£ as a canard. TILE FJJM UXli HTAKTJLINU DISCOVERY ‘•It lias I icon reliably ascertained that the military ex citement now going on in Canada is the result of «h rect special commands from the Crown of Great Britain, for the purpose of diverting the attention of 'the Fenian Brotherhood from Ireland, as the grand obe jeotive point, aud to precipitate a union ot the provin ces, with Prince Allred on an American throne. Tint agents of England are now here LADEN WITH GOLD; to carry out this plan, but they have been FOILED by the detective system of the Fenian Brotherhood, which ramifies society in tliia country even to the tav hies of Sir Edwurd Brace, at Washington, and the ad edited Governor-General of the Canadas. Furthei; particulars of these astounding developments will li<* given to the public immediately. The bearer ol dis patches from the Queen of England, aud who carried the orders above referred to, is a Fenian arid now in New York! The Koxbnry Tragedy. The Boston papers contain the following Jtemaofj interest concerning the supposed murder of the Joyce children, the particulars of the remarkable detectibn of whom we have already given: “ We learn that the adopted parents of Dod£e, alias • Scratch Gravel, 1 feel satisfied that he is the murderer of the two Joyce children. While he resided at Ham ilton, in this State, he was always regarded as a vicious boy, and was in the habit ot carrying a revolver and dirk knife, and when quite young rather inclined to he fast. •• Yesterday ink and paper were furnished him to prepare a statement of his whereabouts during the mouths of May and June last, hut he refused to do so. aud they were taken away from him. ‘•This morning he remarked, poiuthjjg-to his food, that he bad no* eaten anything or slept Spr three .lays, and it is known-that h ohasnovvateir, foil the food that has been given to him remained in a similar condition as when placed in liis cell. ‘ He knows the' nature of the suspicious against him, and told Mr. Haynes that if he could have •• fair play ” he would establish his in nocence. This morning he made another important admis sion. He told Hr. Haynes that hn could not tell him where he was in Rdxbury, but if they would 1st him out he would go with the officers aud point out the places. * • The warden this morning received letters from sev eral parties in West Uoxhury, stating that on the day the murders were committed, ~tlieir daughters were followed by a man in that vicinity, and the young ladies are confident that they can identify* the person again. They are to visit the prison for that purpose. “At the interview this morning Dodge told Mr. Haynes that the blacksmith could not identify a certain article that he had on when he was said to have been in his company at Roxbury, and upon enquiry as to who had made any statement that he could. Dodge Re plied that the deputy warden had so informed him. V..11 .r„. i , - * ,, - . .* pneu Luai iuc uepuiy warueu uau so linorzj „ 1 This is a falsehood, for the latter has held thau white people; aud any one wbo .shall fringe any of these rights shall be subject to fine of one thousand dollars aud twelve mouths imprison ment, with Anal appeal in ail cases to the Supreme Court of the United sutC9. Thus act not to affect the right of suffrage. If this bill becomes a law it will be the most important bill that has ever passed Con gress, so far as the internal affairs of the States are concerned. While it nominally applies to the whole United 9tates, yet practically it finds subjects for its operation almost exclusively in the southern States. One great resource of the Radical press is to publish letters or pretended letters from the south, giving ac counts of the barbarous manner in which the negroes are treated. These letters are frequenly written by,or pro less tobewritten by agents or officers of the Freedinen’s Bureau. In almost every issue of the lcadiug Radical papers one or more of these letters may be found. It would seem the officers of the Freedmen'e Bureau do very' little else than write letters. These let ters must in the main be false, and yet they do im mense harm. They are gradually poisoning the northern mind. If possible some remedy should be adopted. The President was in fine spirits at the ball lsst night. The attendance of members of Congress is much le93 than it used to be. The President has a faith in the people doing right. Other persons how ever,are not so sanguine. The people generally mean well, but they are constantly subject to impoBition, and aro always in a greater or loss degree under the influence of prejudice or passion.

The Civil Rights bill was again reported from tho Judiciary Committee in the House' on Tuesday last* with most of its objectionable features stricken out. That part of the first section asserting civil rights in general terms was stricken out, being the following words, viz.: “ And there shall be no discrimination in civil rights or immunities among citizens of th e United States, in any State or Territory of the United States, on account of race or color, or previous condi tion of slavery.” The civil rights guaranteed by this bill are then defined as follows, viz; “The same riglit to make aud enforce contracts, to sue, be parties apid give evidence to inherit, purchase, lease ,sell, hold aiid convey leal and personal property, aud to fnll aiid equal benefit of all laws and proceedings for the secu rity of person and property as''is enjoyed bywhjte citizens, and shall be subject to like punishment, pains aud penalties, and to none other, any lajw, statute or ordinance, regulation or custom to the con trary notwithstanding. The bill was passed—ayfcs, 109; nays, 39. The Republicans voting a^uinat it .were Mr. Bingham of Ohio, Mr. Blow of Missouri, Mr. Smith of Kentucky, Mr. Phelps of Maryland, and Mr, Latham of West Virginia. Mr. Bingham voted against it because his constitutional amendment, em bodying the same principle, did not prevail;, and Mr. Bingham thinks that such rights ought to be first guaranteed in the Constitution. Such conservative Republicans as Mr. Delano, Mr. Davis and Mr. Mill voted for the bill. ■ 1 The telegraph has announced the final passage of the bill by the Senate, after concurrence in the amendments of the House. European Affairs. v There are important rumors from England. The resignation of Earl Russell is talked of, and credence is given to the report. Conflicts have occurred in • the new Cabinet ever since its formation; Russell iB said to be unable to harmonize the antagonistic elements, and a new doal is probable, when the liberals may have a chance to try their skill at government. Mean while tho Queen is seriously ill, having received a shock by the critical condition of Prince Leopold and the sudden death of Sir Charles Phipps, her private secretary, who died on the 24th ultimo, after two days’ illness.

In Spain tho South’American troubles create much excitement. Prince Couza having been expelled from the Danu- bian Principalities, new troubles are likely to arise in that quarter.
