The rrport of Stkadman and Fotaib- TOK is publinlH'd at Washington. It will makft a profound sensation in political , "circlei", r it chnrgpi, by implication, that the Freedmen's Bureau is but an Other system of negro slavery. The re port is lengthy, and wo regret that our space will admit of but un extract or two. After stating tliut after the cessa tion of hostilities, the Bureau did good, they say : Rpfrtre the close of 18C3. there was an entire revolution in the sentiment ot the . people of the South with regard to ne gro labor. A fesling of kindness sprung op towards the freetlmen, resulting, per haps, mainly from the conviction that his labor was desirable and profitable, und i h nnlv labor to be had. The ne- he Bureau there ceased, . Since then, while it has been beneficial in some localities, it has been productive in the aggregate of more harm than eood. It has occasioned and will per- nMnila rliacnrrl so lonE as it exists. though administered by the wisest men of the nation. Every man in the South knows that it will perpetuate "discord, and that is precisely what the authors of the late bill expect it to do. This is the truth in a nut shell: The freednien regard its presence as evidence thai they would be unsafe with out it: and the white people consider it an imputation upon their integrity, an - espionage upon the official action of all their courts and magistrates, as well as npon the private conduct ot their citizens. Both races are thus made suspicious and bitter by an agency which, in the present disorganized condition of civil govern ment and society in the Southern States, , is powerless to advance toe ;mere.is oi either. . If the following passace does not make out a case of slavery, we cannot com pre- ' hend the meaning of language : The best protection the freedman has in the South is the value of his labor in ' the market, and if he is left free to dis pose of this at all times to the highest bidder, unsbacked by contracts made for him by Bureau officers, no apprehensions need he leu tor nis gaiety m ins nuueees. . If the freedman could at this moment demand the wages which the high price of the products ot the booth would jus tifv. one dollar ner day and board would be the ruling wages, instead of ten or 1 twelve dollars per month, the prices now paid. Hut they cannot take advantage . of the demand for their labor. They are bound by contract) and enslaved for twelve month! through the agency ana influence of the treedmen Bureau. After the boust and glorification over the abolition of slavery, U it not ttrunge that the ntgro is not free to act for him self, but must submit to whatever dispo sition the Bureau may make of his per son? Thrr fay in conclusiou thut if the freedman leaves for the North to seek em ployment at belter wages, he is arrested as a vagrant by order of the Kreedmen's Bureau, and put to labor on the roads with lntll and chain, as is provided by an urder recently issiiPil by General Si'ott, Assistant Commissioner for South faro linn. If fatigued from overwork he de ires to rest for a day, if he leaves the plantation to visit a relative or friend, it is made n penal offense and a fine of $.'0 is imposed, if he reCmes to contract he ij nrreitpd by the Bureau p.-orost mar shal and told for a nr d.-Jlart tn the fiiaifst planter. The coercive policy adopted by the Bureau in this and other respects, has been made a jintif ration fir the discriminating legilntion of nme of the Southern States. THE DDTT OF THE HOOK. War ii'the grand demoralizer of our race. Civilization anj religion flourish under the benign influence of peace but t' be turned bnck in the frll hour of war. How proudly we build the temple to edu vatinn, to religion and virtue ! How glad the henil in tn r.ee the broad country l.lunming with plenty, and glance round horizon undotted with a single sign of commotion I We preach sermons on the beauty of peace, and know no terms too exlriiVHganl tn applied tn public and privMe vittne, We cultivate the aoft 'n.i elegant art until ambition prompts us to rival the achieietnenM of Nature itself. We i.nfien and eiherializ the manner, and eject , "To lay mir own advai.tan ht To Htk our neighbor'! food." We recognize the truth that peace is the normal condition of man, and almost for. get that his bosom contains other ele ments than those that preside in the in terest of amity and good will. Sudden as the sky changes, we changei all human affairs change. The iron and steel with which we fashion the beautiful structures, change their forms. From that in which they turned the clods of the valley and buried the prolific seed, they are shaped to the nses of destruc tion. The huge cannon ball and shell are moulded, and the glittering saber and bayonet are fashioned. The business of life is subjected to a complete transforma tion. Ia war, the policy is to destroy that which a state of peace had erected. Country, cities, art, commerce, are as sailed. " Nothing it too sacred, too beau tiful to resist the fired passions of war. Desolation is bulletined abroad amid the obouu of rictory on ona hand and tears and angaish on t'rre wtier. Th courtly demeanor of man is gone, as the roused Jrvil of his nature stalks through tba aulpuiirous cloud of btiile. Tender friendships are withered, and hate takes their place. ' Those upon whom the honest heart had been accustomed to rely, forsake it and lay snares for its destruction. Accustomed to the work of demolition, the mind comes at last to conclude tht war is right, and that noth ing which peace had forbidden is wrong. . r, .. , , Religion, where men are hewn down by the acre, ia not respected. Accustomed to look upon the corpse of a human be ing with indifference, the idea of future accountability loses its force, and yields to those passions which had been kept in subjection by it. Demoralization ensues. Ihcn comes crime in every phase in which it is possible for it to , appear. Our war left both s c tions at the mercy of a vast number of desperate men, while many thousands were, it is feared, hopelessly depraved. The business of the hour is to hasten with all dispatch the return of the people to their former virtue. Religion must do its treat work, it is the country s first and last reliance. It has its auxili aries, and they must all be marshalled t the work. 00 SLOW. The Journal believes that it has not predicted, as a consequence of the suc cess ot me jjuvall party, a single evi that will not come upon our people. Ii declares that Kentucky will yet " bitterly rue and deeply curse the unnatural and deplorable work of Monday.' The Journal expects and predicts evil as a conseauence of Monday's vote heine in- terp-eied in the North as an evidence of a disloyal spirit on the part ot Kentucky j f . . - ; ; ana oi an intention to revive neurssiun Louisville Courier. Is the loyal sentiment of the North so sensitive that the people of the South must speak in whispers, move with the stealthy step of a cat, and dwarf them' selves into proportions that can com mand nothing but contempt? We don't see that there ia anything in the election of Dcvall at which the forth has any right to take offense? If the people of Kentucky had a right to elect a clerk, certainly the people of the North had no right to dictate to them as to the proper person for the office. We hate that sub serviency which induces men, when transacting their own business matters, to do it with reference to the effect the act may produce npon the minds of those whom they fear or flatter. As to the effect that election will have upon the Radicals, we think it will be most salu tary. It will teach them that the people despise and defy them. As to the Con servatives, they are not likely to rush into the arms of the Radicals because a State has wiped that party out from its borders. Glorious result, is that in Ken tucky. From forty to fifty thonsand majority I AMEEICAH SILVEB. The Montreal papers are making some complaint, says the Philadelphia Ledger, about the extensive circulation of Amer ican silver in Canada. They say that this money has driven bank notes out of circulation in the towns, and they are now almost exclusively in the hands of the country people, " and the danger is the greater in case of any sudden alarm or revulsion." It is so long since we have laid eyes on a silver currency that we almost lorget what its eUect was upon the paper currency, but we don't think any one here would complain it silver and gold once more came back to ns. A BLANDER. The Louisville Courier thus refutes what was intended to lie a damaging slander: We see that the slanderous statement that when the name of Gen. Shrrvav was mentioned, by one of the Democratic spenkers, at the meeting on Saturday night, there was a general hiss ing is traveling the rounds of the papers. We desire for once and for all, to brand the statement as a cronndless and dirty falsehood. We were present at the meet ing, and heard nothing of the sort. The slander is about on a par with the whole course of the opposition towards the I'e. mocracy during the whole canvass. FROM EUROPE. Congratulatory Address to the King of Prussia His Sespoasa Qbjact or us War The King's Address to the Prus sian Chambers Peace Betwtea Austria and Prussia Anticipated Hostilities with Italy Probable - Thirty Billion Francs for a Railroad Champion Prist Fight-Jim If act Winner. Br the Ocean Cable. tiKDoit. August 7. The King of Prussia has returned to Berlin. The municipality presented to him a con gratulatory address. In reply the King expressed hia thanks. He pointed out that Prussia had drawn the sword, not only for her independence, but for the reorganization of Germany. The first, the King said, had been assured. The second may, wnn me neip oi uoa, oe also obtained. Every thing promises a happy future for Prussia, as an honora ble and lasting peace is imminent The King in person opened the Prus sian Chambers yesterday. The follow ing is his speech in full : llhtstriout nobles and loyal gentlemen of both lloutes of the Diet Now that 1 see gathered around me the Represent atives of the country, my heart impels ma to express first of all from this place my own and my people's thanka for God's gracious goodness which hat as sisted Prussia, amidst heavy but success ful sacrifices, not only in averting from our frontiers the dangers of hostilities, but enabling the army of the country by a rapid victory to add fresh laurels to its inherited fame. But to smooth a course for the national development of Germany, accompanied by the visible blessing of Goel, the part of the nation capable of bearing arms enthusiastically obeyed the summons to the sacred struggle for independence and fatherland. Our heroic army, supported by a few but faithful allies, advanced from success to success, from rictory to victory, in the east a in the west Much precious blood baa been shed. The country mourns the loss of taany brave men, who died heroes in the flush of triumph, until our standard waved along a line extending from Carpathians to the Rhine. It will be for tbo Govern ment and the Representatives of the peo ple, in united co-opeli0"' t0 DriDK 10 maturity the fruits that must be gathered from this aanguinary struggle, and pre vent its being scattered in vain. Loyal gentlemen of both honor of Diet, my Goweroinsnt ia ablo to look with satisfaction upon tne nnanciai poeitiuu of the SJtate. Uaretui toresignj aim tu nii.niinm Ronnomv have placed us in position to overcomo the great financial difficulties which have resulted as a natural cause from the circumstances at the present time. ' ' ' Although h material outlay was im posed on the treasury during the recent year by the war with Denmark, it has been found possible to meet the expenses hitherto incurred in tne present war irom the State revenue and existing balances, withont imposing any - other burthen npon the country than that of furnishing supplies tor war purposes. That it is bound to provide by law. I hope most assuredly that the means re ..:-...i rrt lta anAAAaafnl t Arntinfttion of quired for the snccessnii termination oi Uie wnr and payment of supplies in kind while maintaining order and security in finance, will be readily granted oyyou. An uo-rppnient could be made with rep resentalives as to the settlement of the budget, which has not been able to be effected during the last tew days. The State outlay required during this period is therefore destitute of that legal basis which, I again acknowledge, the budget can alone reach through the law, by which means the Constitution of 99 ordains that it is annually agreed upon between my Government and the two houses of Diet, although my Government has. nevertheless, carried on the budget for several years without a legal dbsis. This has only been done alter consci entiousexamination and with correctness in accordance with the Diet, that the mnriiirt of the Administration in the fulfilment of leeal obligations toward the public credit and the maintenance nf ihn irmv and State eitablisbment, were Questions vital to the existence of the State, and the course adopted there fore became one of those uncontrollable necessities which in the interest ot a country a Government must not hesitate to ndopt ' I trust that the recent events will, in so far, contribute to effect an indispen sable understanding that indemnity tor our having carried on the administration withont a law regulating the budget, ap plication for which will be made to the Representatives, will readily be granted to my Uovernment, ana tne nunerto ex citing conflict be thereby finally and the more securely brought to a conclusion, as it mav be expected that the . political position of the Fatherland will admit of an extension of ih frontier of the State, the establishment of a united Federal army nnder the leadership of Prussia, costs which will be borne in equal pro portion by all the members of the ton- federation. The bills required in this respect for the convocation ot a popular representa tive Federal State will be laid before the Diet without delay. Gentlemen, von know that our entire Fatherland feels the high importance of the movement that brings me once more among you. Mar Providence bless Prussia as gra cionsly in the ftitnre as it has visibly blessed the immediate past. .May ixoa crant it. Prussia has positively directed proposals to Russia for a Congress of the powers which signed the treaty of ienna. New Y'obk, August 0. The following ispatcnes nave oeen received Dy tne As sociated Press over the Atlantic Cable st evening Yifska. August fi. It is expected that definite treaty of peace will soon be Igned between Anstria and Prussia, at Prague. Italy is not included. If the difficulty in the armistice negotiations with Italy is not arranged in a few days ostilities will be resumed. Flobewe, August 6 Ihe Italian and Austrian officers met to-day at Comoro, in Austria, to negotiate. trance bas no part in the pending ar miatice between Austria and Italy. If is arranged then a separate peace con' ference will take place with the concur rence of France, and probably at Paris, Dresden, August i. Special peace negotiations are about to be opened be tween Prussia and Saxony. St. Petersburg, August 7. Kussia positively declines the proposals of Prus sia for a congress of the powers with re gard to the treaty of Vienna. Kenewed efforts have been made to obtain the in tervention of Russia with Prussia in be-' half of the Southern German States. The Czar has made no arrangement yet Great enthusiasm prevail at St Pe tersburg in reference to the visit of the American squadron, and the ironclad monitor Miantonomah, with Assistant Secretary of the Navy Fox on board. The Russian fleet has gone to Helsing fors tn meet the Miantonomah. The Colorado, the flag-ship of Admiral Goldsborougb, of the United States squadron, from Lisbon, has arrived at Plvmouth, and sailed for Cherbourg. The principal bankers of this city have subscribed thirty millions of francs to complete the railroad from Kisloo to Mozschonsk. , Lonpox, August 7 The great prize fight for the championship of England and 12,000, between Jim Mace, and Joe Goss, took place to-day. Twenty rounds were fought when Mace was declared the winner. RKV0LITI0XARI PROGRAMME Mattering of the Storm How the Thing Is to be Done The following calculation of the Radi cal strength in the next Congress is made by the Nation, an intensely Radi cal sheet in the interest of the Northern revolutionists. We print it that our readers may see by what means they intend to carry their ends if the people should decide against then When the Southern seats are filled there will be "2 Senators and 242 Repre sentatives. Hat there are not more than 31 persons now claiming to be Senators, nor more than 93 claiming to be Repre sentatives, who Could possi bly ba induced to take part in any such disorganizing and revolutionary proceedings. The scheme, therefore, cannot at present be carried out with the slightest pretense of i legality. But the next Congress will present an entirely different question. There is very little doubt that the Repablicaa party will lose one representative ia Connecticut, three ia New York, one in Pennsylvania, three in Ohio, three in Indiana, two in Illinois, one in Michigan, one in Wisconsin, two ia Missouri, and one in Kentucky: while the four John son-Union members from Maryland, Kentucky and Missouri will be suc ceeded by other Johueoa , if not re elected. Four of the members elect froi Tennessee to the present Congress are too loval to support Mr. Johnson. Not more tbaa two of these will be re-elected. No members have yet -been elected in Texas. Four secessionists will appear for that reconstructed state next winter. Thus, at the opening of the fortieth Con gress, 117 persons claiming scan ia tut House will certainly be prepared to sup port Mr. Johnson's policy. If be caa only carry five more he will hav clear majority of tbo whom he will1 coiibiiU'j lawfully elected to the lower branch of Congress. Now it is very prob able, that, in addition to those losses which we have before mentioned, the Re publicaus will lose one member in Con necticut (Mr. Hubbard), two in New York (Messrs. Humphry and Ketchum), two in Pennsylvania (Messrs. Thayer and Miller), two in Ohio (Messrs Ashley ard Unbbell. or Mr. Clark), one in Indi ana (Mr. Hill), one in Illinois (Mr. Harding), and one In Wisconsin (Mr. Sawyer), ten in all; while it is not cer tain but that tive or six otner seats may ba lost Takine. however, these esti mates as the basia of calculation, it will be seen that the probable loss nf 28 mem bers, though it would leave a Republican maioritv of about 40 in the House of Representatives as at present (113 Re puoucans to ji uiinnuninnH, wuuiu give the Johnson party lit memuers out of 242, in case the Southern delegations were admitted. : -. ;. If the present programme is carried out the Southern representatives will insist upon their right to vote for Speaker at the commencement of the next Con gress, ine uer.K win not can tm-ir names ; and the plan meditated is tor tne 70 or 7a Johnson members who are clearly entitled to seats to unite with the 58 excluded Southerners, elect a tempora ry chairman in place of the Clerk, clioose a Speaker, and apply to the President for recognition is. of course, to be given, and the unrecognized House to be forci bly ejected. We need not sar that such conduct woultlead to the instant impeachment of the officials concerned in it, if the maioritv of the lawful representatives were allowed to meet anywhere, and that the President would, as a matter of course, refuse to acknowledge the valid ity of the proceedings. This would equrlly, as a matter of course, bring about a conflict of authority, the decision of which by the Senate, would be una vailing to prevent an appeal to force. If convicted by two thirds of the court of impeachment, as now constituted, the President would still deny the val idity of the sentence, the twenty-two Southern Senators being excluded, and the issue would be left to the decision of arms. If the new coalition carries !3 of the 184 undisputed seats in Congress, Mr. Johnspn's triumph may be as peaceful as it will be complete: or it it tails to pre vent the election of 122 Republicans, he may abandon the hope of success in the struggle wherein he can have no pretense of legality on bis aide ; nut we tnmic tne former alternative highly improbable. and the latter almost impossible. The only remaining prospect, unless the courage of one party or the other fails at the last moment, is civil war. The disadvantages of the loyal JSorth in such an event must not be denied or underrated. The South wonld have, in such a struggle, exactly the position which, if it had taken it in 1HC0, would have insured its triumph. It. would un dertake to crush a divided North in the name of the Federal Government. It would fight its battles in the name of the United States, and with the sanction of a self-styled Federal Congress. It would have an equal chanoe for recogni tion by all foreign powers. It would have powerful aid at the iNortn, es pecially in the States where the local administration might be.in the hands of Johnson men. On the other hand, it is a favorable circumstance that the Governor of every Northern State is now a Republican,and that the only Governors who can possibly be displaced by Democrats within the next year (except in case of death) are those of Connecticut, New York and Pennsylvania. The bulk of the; jorth- ern States, therefore, as far as their ex ecutive authorities are concerned, will certainly co-operate with Congress. The militia would be placed nnder its control, and in the absence of a large standing array, this would be an immense advan tage. ' BY TELEGRAPH.
