THE PRESIDENT'S DECLARATION OF
PEACE.
i
The official proclamation of peace issued
on the 3d inst., seems to have caused but
little surprise, and, what is most remarkable,
the Radical press, as far as we have noticed,
havesaidtmtlittleabout.il, one way or the
It is needless to say that the lew’

tically, restored to all the rights and pri- ( |p nt itself to the mind of this wily potentate
;es that the Northern States have, with
exception of representation in Con
gress. Their civil laws are again in opera
tion, arbitrary arrests are no longer permis
sible, and the dread of military law no lon
ger hangs over them. Having become satis
fied that the results aimed at in the prosecu
tion of the war had been accomplished, and
that after the reorganization of the State
Governments, on a loyal basis, is complete,
the President could not have indefinitely de
ferred the proclamation without fomenting
sectional discontent, and strengthening
policy which, unchecked, might have led to
serious consequences.
A leading Republican paper of New York,
summing up the effects of this declaration of
peace, says, “The President has now cleared
the ground as thoroughly as possible. The
manifold pleas for exceptional legislation,
predicated upon the continuance of a state
of war,- and its alleged constitutionality under
the war making power, will be henceforth in-
admissable. There will be no tenable pre
tence for talking of or dealing with the South
as still in rebellion; for the President, in the
exercise of incontestible authority, has de
clared the rebellion ended. ' There can be no
longer a decent pretext for excluding South
ern Representatives from Congress, or for
enacting laws applying peculiarly to the
Southern States, and enforcing provisions
which their authors dare not attempt to en
force in their own States.” t '
We regard the proclamation as one of the
ablest productions that has yet emanated
from Mr. Johnson. The various preambles
are admirably arranged, and present strong
arguments in the way of precedents for the
action taken, while the quotations of the
various resolutions of Congress, 1861, and
the logical assumption, notwithstanding the
factious theory of Mr. Stevens to the con
trary, that the sense of Congress in 1866 is
what it was in 1861, is a syllogistical mode of
reasoning which, in this instauce has served
the double purpose of forcing conviction
upon the most prejudiced minds and ot
closing discussion upon the point of differ
ence which has been settled by the final de
cision of the highest couslilutional authori
ty. The document is not only a most suc
cessful reply to the Radical policy of toe'
majority in CoDgress, but it forms, as was
doubtless intended by its author, a new
foundation upon which he can base his op
position to any unconstitutional measures
which have been or may hereafter be in
troduced in that body upon the plea of the
necessities of the war.
But two plans have been presented for the
restoration of the Southern States to the
Union—one of which looks to the friendship,
confidence and co-operation of the Southern
people, and the other being the harsh course
of compelling .the South to follow a pre
scribed line of conduct. The first named is
the one the President has adopted and his
proclamation is in accordance with it. By
this he clearly indicates that the only real
security which the country can ever have,
that no more secession will ever be attempt
ed and that the Union shall be preserved is
to induce those who have been secessionists
to become and continue loyal citizens, by
treating them in a conciliatory manner, and
not as conquered subjects, so long as they
evince a disposition as they now do to obey
the laws of the Governments Nothing has
yet transpired to indicate what effect the
proclamation will have upon the action of
Congress in reference to the subject of re
construction, but we certainly think it gives
the President decided advantages, and such
as will be difficult to overcome. While the
Representatives are wasting time in lengthy
discussions of resolutions and constitutional
amendments, the President with a fixed and
decided policy, is moving on step by step in
the process of restoration.
In thns acting, in spite of the opposition
of Congress, the President shows, that he
places great confidence in the southern peo
ple, and is willing to trust them. It is, there
fore, of the highest importance that our peo
ple should so demean themselves, and we
feel assured they will, as to vindicate the
wisdon ot his noble and generous policy.
the main point in the warlike position of
Austria is left uncovered. Thus stand affairs
in Austria and Prussia, and in commenting
upon them a European paper says: “The
situation has arrived at an extreme degree of
tension, and although the alarming news
which comes from Germany is net to be ab
solutely trusted, it cannot be dissembled that
the chances of a war between the two great
German power* seems to be greatly in
creased."
The other European powers are not un
concerned spectators of this quarrel. Eng
land, it'is said, has already sent a dispatch
to Berlin, pointing out in strong terms the
grave responsibility which would rest upon
Prussia, if that power should provoke a war
in Europe at this time.
The Emperor Napoleon, too, will throw
his restless.eye iu the direction of a cnllict,
the waves of which will dash against the
frontiers of France. If the explosion takes
place he will call to mind the days when the
French boundary was the Rhiue, and this
tempting bait may draw French soldiers to
the banks of that historic and beautiful
stream. The question which will first pre-
will be, “which of the Germanic powers is
able aud williug to promote the interests of
France aud advance the prospects of the Na
poleonic dynasty ?” Upon the answerfto that
question depends the action of the “man of
destiny.”
EUROPE FERMENTING.
In the Eastern, as in the Western Hemis
phere, the spirit of discontent is brooding
over the councils of the nations. If late ad
vices are to be credited the difficulty between
Prussia and Austria will probably be sub
mitted to the uncertain chances of war fo r
settlement These Powers were united in
the affair of Schleswig-Holstein which oc
curred a few months since. They are now
parted upon the question of a proper division
of the spoils. Prussia arrogantly claims the
right of supreme direction of the German
Confederation. To this Austria demurs, es
pecially when such a recognition would
strengthen the position of her rival in the
Congress of the European Powers. The late
arrival from Europe brings the intelligence
that Austrian troops are concentrating on the
Bohemian frontier, that regiments stationed
in Gallicia have received orders to be pre
pared for an early movement, and that the
whole army has been put upon a war footing.
In Vienna warlike preparations are openly
going oh; councils of officers are being held,
generals assigned to new commands, and the
most extensive military plans discussed and
matured. Orders for the purchase of Urge
numbers of horses for the cavalry and artil
lery have also been issued by the Austrian
Minister of War. In the meantime, the King
of Prussia is not idle. At Berlin meetings
of Ministers aud Generals are of daily occur
rence, and agents have been dispatched to
Hungary and Venetia to secretly stir up the
people of these provinces to open resistance,
ahould the war threatened actually com
mence- This is a contingency which has not
been overlooked by the Austrian authorities,
THE COTTON TAX.
We noticed a few days since the proposi
tion of Mr. Stevens in Congress, to so amend
the constitution as to authorize that body to
impose a tax upon cotton exported from the
United States.
A Northern Radical paper, in some com
ments favoring this singular movement, takes
occasian to suggest that a tax of five cents
ou the pound be imposed, for the two-fold
purpose, as it says, “of replenishing the
national treasury and of punishing the South
ern people for the sin of rebellion.” This is
not a very pleasant view to be compelled to
present of the probable future of the
great cotton growing section of America,
particularly, when it is born in mind that,
even under the most favorable auspices,
years must elapse before we can expect to
see the Southern States resume their former
position as a cotton producing area. One
would very naturally suppose that uuder
the depressing circumstances which have re
sulted from the late conflict, a just and pa
ternal government would do all that
was practicable to restore aud fos
ter the cultivation of the mo9t val
uable product of the whole country, and
that it would do so if for no other reason
than that of preventing the decrease of its
production here and the increase of its pro
duction in other parts of the world, which
would result in the annual export of many
millions of dollars to pay for importation of
cotton fabrics, as during the two last years
of the late war. But what do we see ? In
stead of the fostering care one would natu
rally expect, the most onerous and unjust
burdens are sought to be imposed upon those
engaged in cotton culture in the South. Even
tbe most partial and discriminating legisla
tion is projected in Congress aud advocated
by a portion of the Northern press, as if for
the purpose of crushing out all hopes of
future prosperity for the Southern planter.
Not satisfied with an undue influence in
regulating labor, duties must be imposed in
the manner contemplated. Now how does
this contrast with the policy pursued towards
tbe farmer people of the North aud West,
whose productions will be permitted to leave
the country free of duty? Where is the jus
tice of this, we ask ? Where, indeed,
can be found a right-minded, honorable
man who will not at once spurn tbe
injustice of such unprecedented discrimi
nation. Circumstances, we know, have
made excess in taxation necessary, but then
there is no necessity for acting unjustly to
wards any section of a common country. Let
the burdens of taxation be so apportioned
that all will tare as nearly alike as possible,
and then all will readily acquiesce, because
justice will have been consulted, not that
bitter sectional hatred which, we grieve to
say, is so greatly in the ascendent now.
The attention of the present Congress will,
we trust, be called to this view of the sub
ject, for if this scheme of taxation is accom
plished, thousands who are yet endeavoring
to keep up the cultivation of cotton will be
compelled to abandon its culture entirely,
and engage in other persuits which will be
more remunerative to them if not so beneficial
to the country at large.

The impeachment of President Johnson,
says the Charleston Courier, is now the pop
ular theme with all the Radical editors and
politicians, and the hair-splitting casuistry
resorted to to make out a case against him,
is absurd in the extreme—fully worthy of
Duns Seotus, and the host of viri obscuri of

—Mr. Trumbull makes a very remarkable statement
concerning mediatory of the Civil Bights Bill. The
bill was prepared after consultation with Mr. Johnson,
a copy of it was furnished him while it was pending,
and he was solicited to make known his objections, if
any he had, that the bill might be amended and made
acceptable to him. “He never,” says Mr. Trumbull,
“indicated to me, nor, so far as I know, to any of its
friends, the least objection to any of the provisions of
the bill till after its passage."
—Some months ago, as was noticed at the time, a gen
tleman hired a special train from Boston for Portland,
to take the English steamer which was to leave the
same day, but which did not sail until the day follow
ing. Many rumors arose conoerning who he was,
none of them very complimentary to his reputation.
He, however, returned to Portland lost week in the
English steamer Morovian, and, as we learn from a
Portland paper, explained the matter as foljow.s: He
said that he was the representative of a fin# who had
a large moneyed interest, amounting to $750,000,
which was only securable by his being in London on
the 17th of February. He was instructed to spare no
expense in the way of engaging extra trains, to enable
him to reach that city in eeaaon. Leaving the steamer
at Londonderry. Ireland, where ehe touches, he took
the railway for London, which he reached in time to
seoure the prize.
