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’ kicb have broken the general silence affect be very much incensed at this action of e President, atd do not admit even that it as a necessary adjunct of his restoration ilicy. They do not deny, however, that der its operation the Southern States are. 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.

Davis arrived in Louisville, Ky., on the 3d inst. She was to leave the next day on the mail boat Gen. Lytle for Cincin nati. She is under escort of Colonel Har rison. - —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.
