The Republican Candidate for- Presi dent. Letter fsQm Washington, [special correspondence of the news and HERALD.] Washington, May 25, 1868. This has been a day of unusual interest in the House 1 ol Representatives, and Butler hasbeouin bis glory. What the smell of freeh blood is to the tiger, moral putrefaction is to the olfactories of Bntler, who to-day threw hi9 head back and, with distended nostrils, snuffed the air about him. In re porting a resolution to have Col. C. W. Woolley arrested and brought to the bar of ttje House, Butler reported the testimony which had been taken before the Star Obam- _ T -, s n it . ^ ever. ber Committee, and which involved the ques- provision in regard to the seizure of ft* bribe Senators, twW^pd, one of the $£*he Grant platform, [From the New Yoik World.] If a backwoodsman should insist on using an axe to cut his crop of grain, instead of a sickle, because the axe had rendered, good service ia felling the forest that stood upon tuc same ground .the'frreceding year, nobody would be apt to think well of his judgment in ike selection of a utensil. As we are not u have a war, there i9 less fitness in the se lection of a general, than of a statesman, as a candidate tor President. General Grant been nominated solely in consequence of his military leputation. Waiving, for the preseut, the fundamental objection ihat the io*trument is -not adapted to. the proposed use, and that the Presidency, during the next lerui, will afford no scope for the exertion of military talents, we chulleDge inquiry into the grounds of General Grant's fame as a soldier. We suppose none of his friends wnl seriously maintaiu that he is entitled to be called a great general merely because he ha; commanded great armies, much less because he has exposed and lost in battle great multitudes of men. His repu- tuiiou rests upon the fact that all his cam paigns have been successful. But success against such adversaries.as Pillow or Pem berton in the West is no very signal proof of abilities, unless they commanded greater forces; which they did not. General Lee was a more worthy antagonist; but General Lse was not conquered by fighting him, but by exhausting his resources, lie stood on the defensive for nearly a year after Grant assumed command ia the East, although the Coulederacy was even then, when Grant crossed the llapidao, tottering and well-nigh apeut by three years’ exertion in a strenuous bqJ unequal struggle. It is certainly just io credit Grant with the capture of Lee; but theie is a debit as well as a credit side to the account. What General Scott called “the tcom my of lite by means of head-work,” will he sought for in vain in the campaigns of General Grant. His successes have been won by a prodigal expenditure of hi* sol diers. In his last and greatest campaign be pitied an enormous army against a small uue, and sacrificed twice os many inen as General Lee had under his command. It is not justice but adulation, to praise him as if be had conquered an army as large as his own. It is not justice but an affront to hu manity to give him as much credit as if he had achieved the same result without such wholesale sacrifices of men. The fol lowing ?s aa authentic statement of the re spective forces and losses of Generals Grant and Lee between the Rapidan and the James: Grant on assuming command May 4, 1864, had of effective men besides the reserve, when he crossed the Kapidan, 125,000. Lee at the same date had an effective force of 52,000. Grant’s reinforcements up to the battle of Cold Harbor, June 3, were 97,000. | Lee’s reinforcements Dp to the same date, were 18,000. Grant's total force, including reinforce- men is, was 222.000, Lee’s total force, including reinforcements, was 70,000. Returns to their respective Governments showed that when both aimits had reached the James, June 10, the number of Grant’s army that had been pat hors du combat was 117 000. Up io the same date, the number of Lee’s men who had been put hors du combat was 19,000. The two armies then met in front of Peters- burg. We have been at some pains to ascertain and verify these figures, and we vouch for. their substantial accuracy. We shall take good care that they do not escape the notice, nor slip the recollection of the country. We cheerfully concede to General Grant toe merit of success; but it is right that the country should know the terrible cost at wuich that success was purchased. The truest test of military genias is the accomplishment of great results with slen der means. We can recall no instance (un less Giaut he an instance) of a.general who established his title to be called great, other wise than by succeeding against great- disad vantages—either superior numbers, .or con biunmute, abilities ij the commanders op posed to him, or formidable physical obsta cles. A man doe3 not prove that he pos sesses a giant’s strength by overmastering an invalid or a cripple. A general ,does not es- tuolish bis title to be considered great by Bundning an army one-third as large at his own, and losing five ot his own men for every one that he disables of the enemy. We have bad some experience before of running successful generals as candidates tor the Presidency; but their. achievements were, in this particular, a great contract to those of General Grant. Jicksoo won his brilliant victory at New Orleans with 7,000 men agiinBtj a British aripy pf 12,000. General -Taylor had but about 6,000 men at Baena Vista, and : the Mexicans twice or thnee that nnnibir. General Scott bad 8,500 at Cerro Gordo, the Mexican* 12,C00. The splendid victory ! of Goutreras was achieved by Scott with 4,560, against 12,000 Mexicans. General Scott, in his report to the Secretary 01 War, speaking of the battles ia front oi Mexico said, “And I assert, upon accu mulated aud unquestionable ^evidence, that .iu not one t>f these conflicts was this army opposed by fewer than tbree-aodft-half times its numbers—in several of them,-by a yet greater excess.” If it be said that Grant had disadvantages of ground and position to eucounier in advancing through an enemy's country, the same is equally true of Scott, Jho nevertheless with greatly inferior ndm- bera advanced rapidly from triumph j to, triumph, while Grant, operating ‘with superior numbers against a nearly ex hausted loe, required a whole year to capture Richmond, which finally succumbed to exhaustion rather than to military genius. tion of bribing or off^ The testimony of main pillais support clearly provexthat he canvassed the propri ety of bi^yfeg 'upr^st^ral Ridic«i r 8wi*tor a, but the proposition did. not include"either of the “recr&nt fjepktors” wh6 vobrd ior ac quittal, among they gsjcferti Brooks Sftgj iu Bui^arf*^ Pomerofan Tbe/jjwrch; ftI was conviction a&er not sell oat. ibksTeft 6 names of ye, the Senators who were evidently alluded to, and Butler, withou. admitting that these were the Senators, said that the Senators whose names had been omitted in the report had voted for conviction. It would thus aopear that the corruption, if any existed, was entirely a family affair, confined to the impeachers themselves. This fact was com meuled on duriog the debate, and it was doubted whether the Democratic side of the hall had any right to participate in the fight. The most objectionable feature in the report was the unwarrantable manner in which the names of prominent gentlemen were dragged in, simply because they had telegraphed to parties supposed to be well posted here to know bow the impeachment question stood. For instance, the names of Mr. McLean aud of John S G. Burt were thus introduced without u shadow of excuse. Mr Burt had been summoned before the Com mittee. and to-day applied three different Limes to be allowed to appear before the Committee and explain his telegram, butthL was reiused by Bailer,who, after introducing (he name of the witness in the outrageous manner be did, discharged him without pro pounding to him a single question. Colonel Woolley will appear at the bar of the House to-morrow and present his own defence; and it is understood that he will take the position that the House has no power to cause him to divulge the confidential business -of bts cli ents, or to examiue into his private transac tions. Mr. Brooks, of New York, entered au elo- quciit protest against ihe outrage perpetrated ou the telegraph officers by c&p*ri|avagefs, and declared that the companies which bad yielded to the demands made bfxm ■ them uad forfeited all claim to public Cbbfldencc.

He de nounced the managers in severe terms, to the great surprise of his party friend?.' The Senatorial impeacbers held a'caucus this morning to determine whether or not they would proceed with the vfetlhgj'bn im peachment to-morrow. A long discussion was bad, and Senator Howard wag for to participate in it. Chandler, Mortem and Sherman argued that the country hod now settled down with the idea ttrifr Abe Presi dent had been acquitted, and'thaV Che busi ness of the country had been #es‘Qtee<T;’ l that to re-opeu the question and postpone action with some very good excuse would be se riously damaging to the Ra&icaL ^tilrty. Without coming to a conclusion the /Caucus adjourned till 10 o’clock to-morrow mbrftiog. It is the opinion of leading Setups tomlfcht that the Voting will be again postponed. It, was rumored about (he Capitol tb-day that Grant was urgent that the lmp'eacL- ment question should be disposed of afronce, as keeping it open wa9 seriously datiagtug to his prospects. 'Such is alsq th® "opinion of bis guaniian, Washburne, who declared in debate to-day that Congresso^gHVtpstdjoqrn by the 1st July, there being oniylhreefcppro- priatioo bills undisposed of.

Oiase’s power has rbeea felt ia th$ impaachmeot, and it will be felt in the cabv$tffor President. Butler iwears WboHey, the witness who is to Persons and Papers. [From the New York Journal of Commerce.] There will come a time when the safeguards designed in the Constitution to protect the/ personal rights of citizens will be renewed and re-established with fresh sanctions, aud become more sacred than ever. Our readers will re member the prophecy we published, which came from the lips oi a celebrated English judge, foreshadowing the loss to this country of die inestimable privileges of the habeas corpus, because we came into possession of it without any experience of the sore evils which tyranny can inflict where this is not secured. When the Conservative party, under whatever name, once more rules in the councils of the nation, this bulwark of personal liberty will be placed beyond the reach of any but revolutionary power by a constitutional decree, that it shall never be suspended under auy pretext wbat- papers and ether personal effects of a private nature will also be more thoroughly guarded. Few who have not themselves suffered from this cause can feel the glowing indignation no distance of time t can quench which fills the breasts of those whose private correspondence, innocent of any allusions eyen to matters con nected with the rebellion, vras made the subject of official espionage and examination during the late w ar. J he whole of that dark history has not yet been written, but we know that personal malice and party nfklignity had far more to do with the tampering with the mail than any regard lor the public welfare. When it comes to light whose order and connivance in the military stationed at Rouse’s Point ex amined every letter crossing the border either way at that station, and who were responsible for similar outrages all along the mail routes throughout the country, there will be a day of reckoning for some who would gladly escape the searching scrutiny. The law authorizing the seizure of books, papers and correspondence at the will of the Customs authorities,'has been used far more to discover trade secrets for the benefit of rival importers than to protect the Government against fraud. And so the recent seizure of a‘ whole mass of telegrams at Washington, osten sibly to see if somebody had not been at tempting to corrupt the Senate, but really to ascertaiu for party purposes what correspond ence accompanied and grew out of the defeat of impeachment, is a part of the same infamous violation of private rights. There is not a State in Europe, west of Rus sia, where any one of these acts could have been attempted without creating a whirlwind of excitement dangerous to the baud that, wielded such an arbitrary power. Our fathers would have hurled from any station the man who had dared to suggest such an assault on individual rights. The Constitution Mas de signed to give to the humblest citizen immunity from these invasions of his liberties, and we yet look for the supremacy of thj$ grand idea and its more perfect realization uuder the pro tection of constitutional authority.
