We publish in another column the charter of the "Southern Hospital Association for Disabled Soldiers." The purposes of the as soclbtion commend themselves to the whole community, and should awaken to favorable action the truly phiolshtlrrpio'in every civil iztd land. This ossociatltd had its origin at a meeting called at the St. ,Plrels, Hotel on the 22d June ulk At an adjourned meeting held on the 29th 9th sere was a large attendance of some of the most prominent gentlemen of New Orleans and of Louisiana, with a tepre a sentation from some of the other Southern States. At that meeting the charter whicJ we publish was adopted. John B. Hood was chosen president of the assotiation, and S. B. Buckner vice president. Thirty-five directors were chosen. Thetr names are pnblished, and are a guarantee of the fidelity with which the airs of the association will be admisis At a meeting ef the .oard of directors held on the 16th imat, Mr. J. J o wman was ap pointe treasurer of the association, and Messrs -.S. Pike Jameseeewitt and i. L. Gibson were seleted as the fiiance com Dr..

Every director is also anthorized to receive donations, and -to remit all moneys he may receive to the traeasrer of he association. We also pnblish the address to the public which was adoeped at the meeting of the di rectory.

And now we fmd4 that the same kind of people in other States eN goingto follow theseample set them by their Louisiana brethren, and siahibit themseless at Philadelphia wit but say regard to appearance. Thes people preteod to be the "loyal" peo pl of the South. They assemble in' conv n tion, int order, we presumne, to show to the country.exactly what t is kind of Southern "loyalty" means, and of wh14t it conIu ts. They intend to 'prove their '"loyalty" by maligning and traducing the people whom tlHy assume to represent, by volunteering isee testimony against the States which they deert.d in time of need, and by invoking the aid of a bitter and vindictive party in the con atyhisation of their purpose, to regain the license of plandera.d oppression which they I ienoayed for a time in agne of the States, nand t acquire the power dtof wbiQhthey think they were cheated by a virtuona pqblic opinion in other States. They do not disguise theirpur- I poses, . They avow that they liatend, if posi.- a ble, to disfranlhise 1he Souttlhrc r ohocs, and to enfranchise the Southern I wlacls. liutlhr is theirldeity and Brownlow t'j,ir pns:stle. What suclh i prty must be we vran easily eonceive; but that such a party sonhld deliberat.ly court. the ohserv;tionl of 'ae public, is a height of efrontery to wlhic a scen Titus Oates never as pired. The cull feo this extraordinary convention is signed by twenty-six persons. Of th:se, three pre'&ond to hbe citizens of Texas, and of these tiaree, Jack Hamilton, late provisiomal goveroror, is the chief and leader. H:milton som e time ago left Texas, declaring that he wrauld never return thither to reside. Georgo ~R. Paschall, is practicing law in Washington; and Lorenzo Sherwood lives in Brooklyn, New York. These are the three Texans. The two Georgians who sign the call are G. W. Ash burn and Henry G. Cole-both Northern men. One of them is the correspondent of a Boston radical newspaper, and the other was, dturing Confederate days, suspected of treasonable correspondence with General Sherman. Eight putative Virginians sign the call; and of these six are Northern men. Of the Alabamians we know bit little, and nobody else knows much more ; but ashirds of a feather flock together, we presume they are fitly associated with Jack Hamilton and Jeffreys Underwood. The same sny be said of the Missourians. As to the presumed North Carolinians we know ab solutely nothing. Holden, who has a marvel ously keen scent for the buttered side of his bread has refused to have anything to do with the affair, and what sort of a conclave must that be into which even Holden refilses to 0 enter! These are the people who intend to repro - a sent the "loyalty" of the South. They are certainly fair samples of their class. Counter e felt Southerners, deserters uasdfiflse witnesses, Y they will be received with warm welcome by their radical allies. MILITARYl INTERFERENCE IN CIVIL AF FAIRS. It seems from reports that the legislature of Tennessee came to a hitch on the 17th. The radical majority of the House, after effectual drilling and schooling by the urbane, charit ableund forgiving Rev. Gov. Brownlow, were trying to force some measure on that body in opposition to the views and wishes of a very, considerable minority-in other words, were about to commit an act of that most tyranni cal character, the tyranny of the many over the few. Yesterday's reports did not mention the subject under consideration when the con certed absence of a large number of conserva tives reduced the roll of the House to less than fifty. The presumption is that the pend ing vote was one of very great importance, and it may have been nothing less than a vote on the acceptance of the amendment to the United States Constitution proposed by Con gress, and originating with the celebrated committee on reconstruction. The tactics resorted to by the minority, though not strictly in accordance with parliamentary rules, are not without either precedents or a possible justification. While there must either be an end to legislation or an eventual submission to the will and decree of a majority, it sometimes happens that a little delay in passing an obnoxious, odious and un just measure can be obtained by no other means than breaking the quorum. The remaining members have their remedy in the universally'given authority to send after and compel the attendance of absent mem bers-a remedy, however, which does not ex tend to incarceration or unusual continuance of cuftody. The moment the House adjourns for the day the member who has been brought up by order of the House is again at large, and may not even be annoyed by the surveillance of the ser geant-at-arms or his deputies during the in termission between the daily sessions. While the process of collecting absentees is going on, the House, being unable to transact business, nsually takes an informal recess, members being ordered to remain within the bar or other prescribed limits within hearing of the speaker'"a hammer or within reach of the ser geant's staff, The right to compel the atten dance of absentees is strictly limited to the employment of the men and means at the disposal of the House, to-wit: the sergeant st-arms, iis regulardeputiesnd such other deputies asb'e may select by consent of the House and without demand , their compull sory service., Under the auspices of their govarsor the Tennessee radical legislators ap pear t- have employed means as arbitrary as they-were useless in their attempt to secure at qgorums for speoific purpose. allow his oficers and m~id to be employed as runners eid deputies of the sergeant-at-arms was entirely proper, except that his resolution P should have been taken at once, peremptorily sandwithout consulting the commander-in chief. As long as civil and militAry qflicers moie respectively on their prescribed lines collision~o will be avoided. As long as the great police fgre eof the Union is employed in maintaining the laws, upholding the authority and vindicating the rights of the federal gov ernment soldiers will neither be looked upon with dread by peaceful citizens, nor will they be called to the aid of partizan State officials for the promotion of partizan schemes. This appeal for military cooperation is another symptom of the growing and repre hensible disposition tomake the United States government and officers, and especially its army, arbiters of local disputes and auxiliaries in the accomplishment of party purposes. We can readily imagine how with an enormous srmy il hii hands a corrupt, unscrupulous and audacious President may at some future pe riedpermit and direct the employment of mil itary force on every occasieh when it shall be asked for, and that the invocation of military interference may become so frequent that the whole country will be ruled by bayonets and army ordrs. This is one of the signs of thst tendency towards autocracy now evidently rising in the United States. The first step will be the completion of the process of con centrating all power in the federal government And the practical obliteration of the bounda ries of States. The second step will be the massing of all power in the hands of a majority which shall be represented by pliant courlt, an tuserupuloats Congress and an ambitious e xe-. cutive who shall also be a member of the doe.m inant faction or party. The third step wiil be taken when military interference and a long series of burdens, insults and oppressions shall drive some portion of the people into revolt, which will give occasion to raise large armies. If the incumbent executive is at such time a man popular with his party and enjoying their confidence, if he is at the sames time, fond of , exercise of power, be will find little troublle by successive steps in extending the chains of'e martial law over the entire republic. Our i country is ripening for an absolute monarchy and a vast military despotism. The loss of personal liberty, individual rights ° and the privilege pf being govern~l by our t own laws Imuot be t.o reoutoer roult of the loss of independence, rights and so\ereiguty by the States. Thorso call ifor aid on ftderal troops by State authorities show a growing obliviousness of Stato dignity and a rapid dc nay of State pride, both indicative of the chango which the government of the republic is silently undergoing. THE PAPAL BONDS. His Holiness the Pope is in straitenedl cir il nstances. He wants four millions of dol ars. IIHe needs for the purposes of his go -orn miint that sum, not to carry on war against King Victor- not for any aggressive purpose, sot for any warlike scheme---but merely to pay the regular government dues. hIls bonds are offered at the low price of sixty-six cents on the; dollar, and] each contributor to the loan is respectfully reminded that the woe~eeds ore to be employed for the welfare of general ehristianity and the spren of the gospel and not at all in prosecuting political enterprises with cold steel and saltpetre. The august head of the church and temporal ruler of its States does not attempt to show that by contlibuting to the civic necessities of his dynasty the contrihbutors would not thereby enable him to devote other funds to warlike purposes, should it enter into the heart of the sovereign of the Papal States to draw the sword of the nilitant temporal authority tss smite him upon the left cheek by whom he .ad been smitten upon the right and io bestow a worldly chas tisement coupled with a pontifical curse upon those who would trench upon his prerogative, esseen his aiutlority or narrow his magisterial lomiiim n. In bygone ages the wants f he: Papal government were far greater than now. It was one the successor and representative of the old Roman Empire. A line of able Pontifs strengthened it by their wisdom aol adlorned it by their talente . All christemndn revered it arid aided it in its contests with un believers. Peter's pence, tithesandejubilee gifts were poured intoits roflers. The pcnitentild off- rings of wealthy sinners a;d the dolatil. of dying lords built up productive moInlti establishments, whose princely incomes were shared with the treasury o the llHoly See. The Pope could then maintain armies and fleets, by which to command respect for his temporal decrees from powerful monarchs and to the remotest regions of the earth. tI. was at that time a king of kings with an unsen silent in fluence extending throughout all nations. All this is changed. A bull of excommunication would not now cause half the uneasiness to any European sovereign that would be pro duced by an incendiary missal from some popular revolutionary chief. True catholics will never cease to revere the august head of the church : but they pay to him a spiritual reverence only, and not the obedience of sub jects to a sovereign. He cannot command their substance as might his predecessors of the middle ages before saucy Henry of England began to despoil monasteries. In making this appeal for pecuniary assis tance, His Holiness makes it a purely busi ness transaction, pursuing in this respect a course widely different fromn that adopted by most representatives of ecclesiastical bodies in need of funds. He enters the stock market like any secular dealer and offers his bonds as an investment worthy of the attention of capi talists. The amount ($4,000,000) which he hopes to raise in this country is comparatively small, and there is no doubt the archbishops, bishops and clergy will employ in behalf of this loan, all their eloquence and influence among monied laymen, who are not wont to bei backward in any good work. While few among American thnrucicrs would probably re commend this investment on the score of pros pectioe profits, many wealthy catholics will doubtless avail themselves of this opportunity to give a substantial token of their zealous de- I votion to the cause of the church and of their profound reverence for the Polpe. The pro posed loan being in snbstance an appeal to thel piety of American catholics and not to the cupidity of capitalists in general, it is hardly appropriate to discuss its merits in the osprct of spc 'ueiios. The Philadenlpha Canveantian. Below we publish a copy of the explanator: circular issued by the conservative committed in Washington. It will be seen that the effce and intention of this circular are such as w0 have already attributed to it. Its object it merely to obtain a representation of the vari ous States, essentially popular in character. In the Northern States this object is to be at tained by the appointment of delegates iron: "both political parties," either acting sepa. rately or in concert. In the South the fact it recognized that the two parties referred to d, not exist, and hence, as to Louisiana, the greal popular prganization known as the Nationn: Democratic may, either through its members, or through its executive committee, appoint delegates to represent the people of the State. This duty has already been discharged and it is, therefore, entirely superfluous for any other organization to send delegates, especially as the Democratic party embraces the whole peo ple of the Statewith the exception of ginme small and numerically insignificant fractions. The following is the circular referred to : WASssNGTON, D. C., July10, 1866t.-Your imme diate and earnest attenton is invited to the annexed call for a national convention, issued by tha na tiospl Union exeuontive committee, and the accom patying indorsement thereof by prominent gen tlemen who are well known to the ouontry.
