In a Republic, or in any form of Government the pulsation of the popular will should not be disregarded. Early in the present week intelli gence reached this city from Baltimore, that an expreeion of discontent, hitherto smouldering, had arisen amoDgst the operative tradesmen of that city, to the effeot that negro hands in akilled.la- bor wero superseding the whites—not in the ex cellence of the work the blacks performed, but be cause the wages paid them were below the atau dad at which men should be paid. Henoe the carpenters, and, indeed, according to the most authentic accounts received, the men of every trade in Baltimore, struck, to pnt down negro labour. The result of this first move in the pre* raises was that all the white artisans of the sev eral trades ceased and relu.ed to work on the terras which the employers proposed, in reference to negro labor. This interruption to the ordinary daily occupations of the several trades produced anything bat a Eatisfaotory state of things to. the employers, as well as the employed, and in a spirit of good will and in order to have, the case adjusted as speedily and as amicably as possible, the operatives appointed delegates to wait on the employers and bring the matter to a satisfactory issue. The employers received the delegates with a friendly exterior, but refused to comply with the strikers in their demands on the subject of negro labor, and pay. Nothing new has as yet transpired on the subject, and the little commotion as it stands might give rise to the reflection that thero must be something wrong in the relations between the employers and, the-employed in Bal timore, in reference to white and negro artistic skiii and physical ability, for Maryland was the first state in Union which deolared for freedom to every man, irrespective of ooior, sect or creed, and there must be something in the local affairg of Baltimore, or the intelligent Operatives in skil led labor there would not exhibit any symptoms of retogression in the scale of human liberty. The Trades of New York '. The operative trades of New YorkJ are bestir ring themselves on the question of the eight hourg a day movement. The carpenters met on Wed. nesday evening and resolved upon carrying the project into effect of establishing eight instead of ten as the hours of daily labor. The meeitng held in Washington Hall, Eigth Avenue, was numerously attended, and. the discourses pronounced, by the several speakers all of the working carpenter class, were replete with practical common sense, and the men who were called upon by the chairman to speak on the subject, proved that the body of which they were the exponents in public, were men of profound practical knowledge in the affairs of social life and political economy. Races and Charioteering. On Wednesday there was an animated ex hibition of charioteering over the Fashion Course, on Long Island. Contrary to general expectation, the correspondent of a newspaper cannot be like the Irish Baronet’s bird; in two places at the same. time. Your present writer was in New York city whilst the mimic revivals of Greek and Roman charioteering were in ac tive operation at thel’aterson raced^a few mile 8 off. There wer* wonderful performances at those races, if we are to be led to that con clusion by the opinions of many tongned re ports, not two of which agree in outline or detail. The whole thing, it appears, was simply a racing day over a fine course, pre senting a great variety of equestrian feats, such as are of frequent occurrence on every race ground, including the accidents which are inseparable from a steeple chase, there be ing “scccral spills," but no bones broken. The principal feature in the days’ enjoyment was a representation of the Greek custom of lady charioteering after the model,of the chariot of dre Sun. Those ladies (two in number) teemed to realise the idea of the original pas time as recorded by ancients, and translated by the Lord knows who; but apart from the female agility exhibited in tjje circus, the charioteering! reust have been far beneath thst of the boy *ho fen i n to the sea and was drowned some where in the Adriatic, and the best and most pleasing events of the day were those which “fended the good and manly and well nnder- £ toud exercise of the steeple chase. The ! P“rts on this occasion were brought to a con tusion on Thursday, when the three principal an i concluding races were won by : first—Nannie Craddock. Second—Baltimore. 1 hinl—Kentucky. “Hurrah Kentucky” w “s the cry. • . . £ r ..t •« Fires in New York.

The parties who 1 ave issued this piece of voluntary advioe have lagged in Religion to fortify their *eal in lack of argument, but it i* the opinion of those most competent to forma correct judgment that a man of a religious turn of miod has no business in beeoming a soldier or a politician. The great Daniel O'Connell said, and often repeated it to bis hearers: "When ever you see a man turn up the whites of his eyes and make professions of religion, if _he be near you, that moment button up your breeohes pock ets.’’ O’Connell was right—such characters ere a’ways to be regarded with distrust sad sutpioion. In Ireland at present and for some time past th e reading of a particular newspaper or. the expres sion of political opinions opposed to some men who vaunt their religious propensities, wonid be cense sufficient to deprive a man of the means ef earn ing his bread- hence a poor sehool teacher or a commercial clerk would be dtsiUiisUd from his petty office and sent adrift on the world without food or moneyto buy it, his only erhae fating* the reading, of a certain newspaper. This is th* system pursued by religious men in their method of madness for making converts,. and .with .eyes and eare^cibsed to (he teachings of experience it 1793 1h'Fian6e v aad tn fra] the fanatios in religion aDd the bigots in politics—the intolerants in every thing would at the present time starve a mao, young or old, or commit him to the bastiie or the Inquisi tion, on account of his opinions, whether they be more or less, or scarcely, anything at all above or be'ow the prescribed standard. And what is that prescribed standard? Why some of the votaries coaid not advance an idea further than their own personal in torests-t-fhat- they had sworn an oath of allegiance to British rule, or misrule. —that they wero fat and weiifed and fared sump, tuously, whilst the people about them and those who raised voluptuous food lor others, were starv- ing, or in coi-rsa of being banished like vermin from the land. English Detectives in America. By the last steamer which arrived in New York a number o£ detective officers from the London police force landed and proceeded ac cording to orders from the British government to their respective -Stations, th watch and re port the movements of the Fenian Brother hood. Some are stationed in New York, and some proceeded to Chicago, where it is alleged the organization is numerous and effective. England seems dreadfully afraid of those Fe nians, who have lately, it appears, adopted a line of deep secrecy and concealment, in or der to baffle the pursuit of the Bnglish spies sent on their track in'Ireland and America.— A Liverpool shipping journal publishes, in good faith, the report of a Fenian privateer overhauling a Liverpool and American tracing vessel on the high seas. Crime itl Neur- -York. A boy named Pigit died from the effects of a stab he received in his father’s residence, in • Mulberry street, in which a row had occurred, and which resalted in the death of the unof fending boy. A woman was stabbed by her husband in their residence in Coerry street. The men was taken into custody and committed to pris on, pending inquiry as to the effects of the wound. j yra* A sad affair occurred yesterday evening in Prince street, arising out of an illicit inter course between a woman rather advanced jn life and her paramour. The circumstances are thus narrated by the morning papers : A Son Shoots His Mother. An exciting affray took place at a late hour last evening, at No. 94 Prince street, where a young man, Darned Henry Gerkin, shot hi* mother, her lover and himself. It appears that Gerkin, who was partially intoxicated, was endeavoring to get his mother away from Henry Hiller, her lover, who keeps a grocery store at the above number. He became en raged at her refusal to comply with his re quest, and a pistol which he carried exploded, the ball lodging in bis leg. He then drew the revolver, took deliberate aim and shot his mother, the ball taking effect in the nose and lodging in the left jaw. A third and fourth shot were fired, one of which grazed Hiller’s some cases of importance before the courts of General Sessions, amongst which are the case of Dr. Charles Cobel, the abortionist; Wag ner, charged with the murder of his wife, and the case of Peter R. Slowly. The case of Cobel is one of unusual interest, as he i 8 charged with having caused the death of a young lady by an abortion. Charges Against the City Officials. Yesterday, Governor Fenton, in pronounc ing judgment and dismissing the charges against the city officials, said ; “The power to remove, certain officials for misconduct or-malversation in office, was vested in the governor of the state for wise purposes; it is a high and responsible power, and it should only be exercised upon clear, positive and undoubted proof of misconduct. In thiq case it is plain to me that the evidence ifl wholly insufficient to justify me in its exercise. I therefore dismiss the charges.” * Cotton. The market during the week was firm and fairly active. The arrivals have been considera ble, and sales for immediate use, and for export and speculation, have been also very considerable. The receipts of 30,000 bales in four days, from Monday to Thursday inclusive, has had no de pressing; bat rather a buoyant effect on the mar ket. There were 6,000 bales of middlings, up lands and Orleans, sold on Thursday at 53 to SOo Upon the whole the market is buoyant, and the prices satisfactory to the seller and buyer. The rates on Thursday were: Upland Florida Mobile N O&T - Yesterday there was a large sale by auction of about 1,200 bales of Government cotton, conduct ed by Mr. Draper, the agent, ofwhioh the follow iug is the result..

Jones, en-* gaged in a quarrel with Mary Ann Johnson, in Mary Anne Sbew’s brothel, in Greene st., near Bleeker, and at length thrust her from a front window. One ef her-legs wab severely cut, but she was not otherwise injured. Jones was arrested .by Officer John Crown, and locked up in the Eighth precinct station- house, and the female was taken to the same place, where her wonnd was dressed by Dr. Freligh. I refer to the foregoing because they are of a domestic character. The usual array of crime outside, which keeps the authorities oc cupied, dost not appear abated. * Ecclesiastical Convention. The ecclesiastical convention . is holding its deliberations in Philadelphia, something after the fashion of the whole system of human ex istence, light and shade, sun shine and show ers, but no material ebullition nor motion cf serious discord appears above the surface; things go rather smoothly on, but an event has attended this assemblage of the elders which throws a sensation of grief over a wide-spread circle of friends and acquaintances in the fol lowing announcement which I extract from an authentic source : Fatal Accident—Death of the Rev. Dr. Jones of New York. PftiLanicLFHix, Oct. 12. Lot Jones, D.

A curious array of tabulnr matter, extending over three columns of the New York Herald of yesterday morning, sets forth that for the year ending 80th June, 1865, tbe figures representing the amount of money sold by stock brokers to be $6,078,708,818—that is more than three times the amount of tbe national debt due by tbe United States, and the duty or Government revenue aris ing thereon, was over three and a half millions.

Whereas, by a proclamation of the 5th of July, 1864, the President of the United States, when the civil war wag flagrant and when combinations were in progress in Kentucky for the purpose of inciting insurgent raids into that State, directed that the proclamation sus pending the privilege of the writ of habeas corpus should be made effectual in Kentucky, and that martial law should be established there and continue until said proclamation should be revoked or modified; and whereas, since then the danger from insurgent raids into Kentucky has substantially passed away : Now, therefore, be it known that I( Andrew Johnson, President of the United States, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the constitution, do hereby declare that the said proclamation of the fifth day of July, one thousand eight hundred and sixty-four, shall be and' is hereby modified in so far that martial law shall be no longer in force in Kentucky from and after the date hereof.

ANDREW JOHNSON. By the President: Wm. Hustek, Acting Secretary of State Washington, Oct. 12, 1865. Naval Court Martial. The Navy Department has ordered a general court martial to convene at Washington on tbe 1st of November, composed of the following officers : Vice Admiral D. G. Farragut, Rear Admiral niram Paulding, Rear Admiral Chas. R. Davis, Rear Admiral J. A. Dahlgren, Com modore Missroon,Commodore Thomas Tnrner, Commodore James S. Palmer, Commodore J. A. Winslow, Captain S. P. Lee, Captain M. Smith. Captain James Alden. As this is a solid court, it is conjectured that persons high on the navy list are to come before it; but their names are not promulgated. Gen. Howards Mission to the South. Tbe following order explains fully the object of the mission which General Howard started npon a few days since : General Orders—No. 145. Wak Departjcbwt, ) Washington, Oct. 9, 1865. J Whereas certain tracts of land situated on the coast of Georgia, South Carolina and Florida, at the time for the most part va cant, were set apart by Major Gen. W. T. Sherman’s special field order, No. 15, for the benefit of refugees and freedmen that had been congregated by tbe operations of the war or bad been left to take care of themselves by their former owners; and whereas an expecta tion was thereby created that they would be able to retain possession of said lands; and whereas a large number of the former owners are earnestly soliciting a restoration of the same, and promising to absorb the labor and care for the freedmen, It is ordered that Major General Howard, Commissioner of the Bureau of Refugees, Freedmen and Abandoned Lands, proceed to the several above named States and endeavor to effect an arrangement mutually satisfactory to tbe freedmen and said owners and make re port, and in ( case a mutually satisfactory arrangement can be made, he is duly empow ered and directed to issue such orders as may become necessary after a full and careful inves tigation of the interests of tbe parties con cerned. By order of the President. E. D. Townsend, Asst. Adjt. Gen, The Reduction of the Army. Lieutenant General Grant has returned, and is now prepared to carry out the plan, already agreed upon, for thd reduction of tbe army to a standard required only for the ordinary con dition of tbe country in times of tranquility at home and peace abroad. Soul hern Mail Service. Preparations are now making for the great Southern mail lettings. The Department is reedy and willing to revive all the former accomodations, but than is difficulty in finding suitable men who have not been engaged in rebellion, and who can take their prescribed oath. Interview of Judge Lochrane, of Georgia, with the President. Judge Lochrane, of Georgia, had an interview oi nearly two hours’ length with President John son this forenoon. The eonversation took a aide range and eabraoed everything connected with reconstruction in the South. The Judge’s record during war is notforgotten by the President and his wishes and opinions, as a consequenoe, are probably given some consideration. The Freedmen of Tennessee. The Freedmen’s Commissioner lor the State of Tennessee reports that, aside from the issue of of rations to the inmates of hospitals, no freed* men in that State are receiving aid from the gov ernment. This satifaetory condition of affairs has been brought about with great prompitude, as by the report of the Commissioner lor the month of September it appeared that there were nearly one thousand freedmen dependent upon thegovernment lor food. The labor system is re ported to be working harmoniously, and good order and tranquility generally prevail. The Reported Complicity of General Slocum in Cotton Speculation. Tbe subject of cottoa speculating being under discussion by a knot Of retired operators on the tbe street to-day, tbe story so industriously circu lated by the republican press about General Slo cum’s complicity in cottoa operations at Vicks burg was alluded to and received with a hearty laugo. Several gentlemen cherished lively re collections of the difficulties encountered in en deavoring to use Geo. Slocum’s Angers in getting cotton away from Mississippi, and instanced a caw where a favorite staff officer was' dismissed by him for consenting to act as supplicant in be half of speculators. Ail agreed that General Slo cum's reign 'in Vicksburg was the darkest ot all the waryear* for colton speculations ia Missis sippi. Their evidanoe possesses the merit of im partiality, at least. Negro Laborers in Demand in Michigan. A railroad company in Michigan have lately made application to the Freedmen’s Bureau for four hundred negro laborers to be employed iu tiie construction of a new line of road in that State. They offer to pay such laborers eighiy- rnvea and a half cents per day and board them.— The proper officers of the Bureau are fipw eu- gUMdin collecting the required number of blacks Who aril willing to close with the offer, and it it probable tint they will he despatched during the mo$tfc, Intercession in Behalf of Jeff.

The Exclusion of Prominent Rebel Officers aa " TKifnesscs in the Wirs Trial. It appears to have been assumed from tbe report of the proceedingsrin the Wire ease on Saturday last that the position of the Judge Advocate on the point of excluding as wit nesses for tbe defence prominent rebel officers, on the ground of incompetency, by reason of their having been engaged in rebellion, was ruled on and sustained by tbe commission.— Such was not the fact. The counsel for the accused, in reply to an inquiry by the Presi dent of the Court, stated that he would not insist on tbe attendance of those witnesses, and there the matter ended—the President stating there was nothing before the Coart foe decision on that point.
