President has been urgent for this action. The radicals are very much provoked at this movement, which is a good sign. The Con vention is a fixed fact. The question now is whether it will be a success. Everybody who wants to servo his country or himself by getting into a good office, would do well to stir his stumps and come on as a delegate. Apprehension is felt lost some imprudent men shonld be sent from the South and men like Yallaudiugham from the North.

Mr. Browning, formerly United States ■ It i and Herald sylvania, with the endorsement of Senators Dixon, of Connecticut; Hendricks, of Indi ana; Nortou, of Minnesota, aud Nesmith, of Oregon, canuot be understood otherwise than rs a formal proclamation of withdrawal by the Johnsouites from the National Union party. Mr. Hendricks, and perhaps we should add Mr- Nesmith, cannot withraw from a parly to which they never professed to belong ; ■ but the others have all been honored and trusted as members of the great party which they now openly abandon and conspire to overthrow.. We thank them for their frank ness, ttlifffHMt hope to find them more manly as antagonists than they have been faithful as compatriots. | ‘ No one can possibly be duped by tbeir call. Us terms are explicit and emphatic. Ex-Governor Andrew, of Massachnsetts, is disqualified by his convictions for a seat iu the contemplated convention; not so ex- Governora Smith and I .etcher, of Virginia. Generals Bn tier and Howard cannot pro nounce the ltandall Shibboleth; Generals Lee and Fitz John Porter can do it easily. Governors Oglesby, of Illinois, and Stone, of Iowa, cannot have seats in tbeir Sanhe drim ; but Wells, of Louisiana, and Throck morton, of Texas—tho latter doubtless elected over the vote of every hearty Unionist iu his State—will be present in spirit, and may be in person. Gen. Geary, the chosen leader of the Unionists of Pennsylvania, cannot pass their door keeper*; but Heister Clyracr, his opponent, who never once even protended to wish the rebels deleated and tbeir Confeder acy suppressed, will see those doors fly open to welcome his approach. j This call simply proclaims the adhesion of the Johnsouites proper to the party made up of the rebels and pro-rebels which aims to seize, the Gov ernment and control the dcstiuieB of our couutry. Messrs. Kandall & Company will furnish the new combinations with a liberal proportion of its managers and office-holders ■ but ninety-nine hundredths of its votes must be supplied by those who voted last for Presi dent, either for Jefferson Davis or George B. McClellan. It may be that they will vote next for Andrew Johnson; but we do not believe it—nor do they. It were idle to note that the rights of the blacks—nay, the very facts that they claim and hare any rights—are utterly ignored in this call. The Kandall call affirms that “ Each Slate has the undoabted rigid to prescribe the qualifications of its own elec tors but fails to meet sqoarely and honest ly the prior and vital question—Who consti tute the Stale t We know, indeed, precisely what it meant—that the intensely rebel mi uority of the people of South Carolina, for instance, shall monopolize all power in that Stale, and that the invincibly loyal majority shall have no power at all; hut this barb is concealed by the bait, and the rebel minority of the (icople of Texas, who have just con solidated their power by the election of Throckmorton & Co., are to be recognized by this Kandall Convention as fully cutitled to work their wicked will on tho large majority, whereof the whites have voted for peace and the Union wherever they durst, while the blacks are utterly ignored and suppressed.

Hrqdnlloii »f Use of htny'i Lov»- Ultm to •mr The following letter baa been furnished for publication in the Washington Republican. It presents a startling, but not a new phase in the political fife of John W. Forisey. The President has been induoed to tarnished it for publication because of Forney's recent denial that he ever wrote snch a letter. Its endorsement of the President’s restoration policy, its nomination of him for re election, and the solicitation of the New York Coliec- torship for a friend, whose name is omitted in the published letter at the Preaident’a re quest, show what faith may be placed in the dead duck's Radicalism. Here is the letter ; . New York, January 21, 1866. M r Deab Mb. Pbesident : 1 have been in the city for two days, and now write under au impulse which I cannot restrain, because I teel it to be for your own good and that of the couniry. I take H for granted that yon are resolved not to be unmindful of your own fame, and that you will not allow your friends who heartily sustain your policy to feci that they are without yonr aid and en couragemeot, whether you are a candidate lor President or not, nnd if you are not I shall be greatly surprised, with the wonder ful favor that crowned your restoration policy. Yon should not allow the great offices to go to indifferent men, or those clearly in the interests of your loes. ' I need not repeat to you that I am now, as ever, for twenty years shown in my writings, and since your great act of patriotism in I860, especially, your open and avowed friend. Where I am to-day my two newspapers, botlsniaily, show to the world. Hence in what I now say, I speak no idle words, but menu all I say. The Collector’s office at New York is a post that you should dispose of outside of all the politicians ; not that I mean to defy them, but to select your own man, who should be free only to help you, aud serve the Government: one they could neither attack nor use. Such a man is , of this city. He was elected to Congress in Senator from Illinois, is spoken of for Speed s j g ale3 [0 the Johnson Union Convention they j place in the Cabinet. Those who have the j would be simply kicked out; or, rather, uts per month, aud best means of knowing are confident that if ind Herald : the Union Convention is a success, that the yMr j President wiii etiauge some portion ot his Cabinet. I There is quite a handsome little expose of I Mr. John W. Forney, going on notv in the i publication of his correspondence with the President, as late as January, 186G, in which !

Caravajal took command in front ol Mata rnoras, and demanded its surrender. Gene ral Mejia refused, but sent for General E*c<>- bado to come and receive the ci’y. Mean time General Escobado was marebiug to the assault. General Mejia sent for General Getty, the commander of the United States forces oil the Texas side, who went to confer with the Imperial General. Mejia asked if he surrendered to Caravajal if General Getty would protect tbe American citizens, to which the latter answered, “That is what I am here for!” • The citizens of Matamoras were flying to the Texas side of the river. t)u tbe 22d, the Custom House wti9 left open all night to fa cilitate their departure. General Escobado is endeaving to pass the captured train into Texas. The Brownsville Courier thinks that some arrangement will be made to hood the city over to Caravajal.

To the President. Euuilh of Jill,' In Richmond. The Richmond Times opens an editorial ou the celebration of the Fourth of Jaly in that city with the following paragraph Guzzling, gunpowder, perspiring negroes, hot lemonade, cold blackberry pies, unwbole- t ‘ onB ,,f some gioger-bread, over-heated heroes and fat, fly disturbed artillery horses, shoals of ragged juvenile freedmeu, a brass band and a spread eagle orator, black, red, yellow, whim, or of i onic oeutral tint, with the addi tion ot heat, dust and siuell, are all that is left of tiie Fourth of July. Tbe statue of an obscure wffite mao named George Washington will, if reports be true, look down iu calm sod serene amazement at the entertainment which a very limited nnm- of performers will give to-day to a surging ocean of fragnml blacks. The'noble charger upon which he is mounted, evidently from the appearance of bis distended nostrils, smells an incense different from that which be has heretofore suutfed upon tbe tainted breeze; while Jefferson, the Author of the Declaration of Independence, gazes at the strange scene in the capital of hia State. The editor contemplate* ^“***>“*• An Divers*'! - wnirti he claims as the white man’s, but which, he says, has been monopolized by the negroes with no sentimenla of patriot!* enthusiasm. He says With reference to the celebration of tbe Fourth of July to-day, we are for the present, in the condition of tbe man whose donkey placed his hind hoof into one of the stirrups of the saddle. “ Ij" said the rider, “you propose to get up, I think- I u-ill get down." Miscegenation in Washington.—The Star, of Saturday evening, says: Last night Ida Pickett and Sarah Holmes, two white fe males, were arrested by officers Barkley and Markwood for disorderly conduct, and were locked up iu tbe central guard house. This morning they were fined §3 each by Justice Morsell, when a flashy-looking citizen of Atrican descent very promptly stepped up and paid the fines. Tbe colored fancy about the guard bod*d door were much interested Id the cases of these white damsels, sod de parted as soon as they were released. The officers say they are living in a bouse kept by negroes, and from tbeir dress sod appear ance, it is fair to presume that they live iu luxurious style. The Education of Fbbcdmbn.—Tbe Gov- I or of Florida, we are told, has, by some ns, secured the whole 1 control over the .cation ot freedmen in that State. Rev. Mr. Duncan, Who preached at St Luke’s M. E. church, lsst Sabbath, has bee* appointed Geueral Superintendent. In a taw months he has organised thirty-two schools in tbe principal iowds, and tbe large majority of the teachers are Southern men. Some are negroes and some are Northerners. In se lecting from tbe latter class, care was taken to choose only those men who intended making the South their homes. Tbe radical element was discarded altogether. Mr. Duncan received the war meat co-opera tion fnitn the Northern merchants who had settled at Jacksonville and other points. They wanted friendly relations established, and mutual affection to exist between the two races, and they knew this could never lie found where abound New England school- marms, who come here only to make a little money and whose hearts are full to the brim with hatred for the people of this section. Mr. D. and his assistants in every case, con sulted the leading sought’ tbeir 1 assistance and ibcutw roclf •arneii co-oper ation. Thus, a number of tehools have been established, every one of which is sell-ias- tuning, i n3ii.fir- . j.'i .pi The advantage of the system is the proper education pf the jrqedmsn. the teaching Sm that his future must be identified with the Southerner and that the kindest feeling should exis* between the former master ana slave. Columbus Sun.' Blissful Ignorance.—It ‘ 3 proved that out of the 21,776,334 Italians united under the sepptre of Victor Emanuel, 16,999,701 do not know their letters, while of the remainder 893,338 can barely read; thus the number of more or less educated educed to 2,623,605 males, and l,26U,b*u temales.
