"We publish this morning two significant utterances, which illustrate the present tendency in the Union party toward a re newal of confidence, friendly feeling, and harmonious action, between the' President and the class of. Union men known, as radicals. lhe one is the recent sermon by Mr. Beecher, ' a well known abolitionist and champion of equal suffrage, asserting his entire confidence in the President and his policy ; the other, and by far the most important of the two, is the recent decla ration by the President to Major George T i J JI,.1 1 . e I owearas, uo.-u rau.cai politician 01 wzwv, tne sunrage to me cmutnren ireeamen. The former indicates that the distrust of the President, .which has undeniably existed in the minds of the most progressiTe and earnest Unionists, is rapidly being removed, while the latter shows good grounds for that removal. In his conversation with Major Stearns, the President has, to be sure, reasserted his opinion that, as President, he had no right to interfere with sunrage in the States, but he accompanies this declaration, which has been clearly announced from the beginning, by an exposition of his individual views on the subject of negro suffrage, which will give assurance to its friends that his great influence will not be against them, and which effectually des troys all apprehensions that he will sep arate himself from the Union party, or its most radical members, on this isue. He Ls in favor of granting the ballot, first, to every colored man who has served in the Union army. This, of couraa, lie would wish to do immediately, while all are alive to receive itJ benefits. Next, he is in favor of bestowing it on all who can read and write. This would admit only a small portion of the freedmen to the polls, but one which will constantly increase from year to year. He would also accord suf frage to all, whether or not they can read or write, who own $200 worth of proper ty. This class is likewise small, but would increase with equal rapidity. Meantime the extension of suffrage to those who pos sess these last named qualifications would be a strong incentive to others to attain them, and would thus afford a premium for intelligence and industry. We do not see how radical men, even though they may individually prefer to go further, can quarrel with the position of the President. It places him very clearly among the friends, I rather than the enemies, of Negro Suffrage. His op position to the universal application of the principle is one of expediency solely, and he favors its moderate assertion at first as means of avoiding a war of races. His views, if adopted by the South, would af ford a practical solution of the suffrage tension of the suffrage to every neCTo , . . & J & "wimj ui iu exercise. Meantime it must be understood that Question which would do awav with the ,,it, ;;ii ; .v.. I . .. . , . , ... "I these expressions by the President of his private views do not in the least interfere with his frequently reiterated determina tion to leave the question of reconstruc- i tion in the hands of Congress. We cannot avoid a query as to the effect Mr. Beecher's sermon and the Presi dent's conversation, on the State election JNew lork. The contest in that state has been as to which of the two parties Cave the warmest support to and was in closest sympathy with the administration. The Democratic party has made a deg. perate effort to capture Mr Johnson 1 and to nnrr,r.riota i; . , ' and to appropriate his policy as theirown. the same time they have repudiated andnd.culed negro suffrage in any and every shono Tki.e.ifii,.p.:ji to a every shape. This avowal of the President places them in a curious dilemma. They must either retract their opposition to ne suffrage or w ithdraw their pretense of supporting the administration policy. They will not do the former, and though they will endeavor, if possible, to escape from doing the latter, their hypocrisy will manifest. As the President's declaration been made public with his consent, its correctness certified toby him, it seems most probable that he anticipated intended this very result. While the President thus quietly but decisively sep arates himself from the Democrats, the sermon of Mr. Beecher is an indication he will be warmly welcomed and supported by the radical Unionists. The grand party of the Union is thus cemented more strongly than ever, and good assur given of its harmony, perpetuity and power. n in The Virginia Election. Tb Virginia election was not a "walk for any of the successful candidates, in two districts, at least, the vote is so that it may require the official count. settle the result. In the Lynchburg Judge Mosby leads Withers about J votes, but the Rev. B. A. Davis, of Patrick county, is so close behind that his friends bv no means give it up.

Returns of official and estimated major ities have been received from about fifty counties in Iowa, which show an aggre gate majority for the Republican State ticket of twelve thousand. It is expected that the counties yet to be heard from will swell the majority to sixteen or seventeen thousand. Among the fifty counties from which reports have been received, we find no more than six which gave a Democratic majority. The General Assembly will, therefore, be larcrelv Republican in both branches, thus securing the election of two United States Senators one for the va cancy occasioned by the resignation of James Harlan, and one for the full term of six years from the 4th of March, 1867. The Capital District. It is gratifying to know that the Colum bus Congressional district, which repudi ated Sammy Cox last fall by the decisive majority of 3,223, in the last election gave a majority for the Union ticket which crushes all Democratic hopes for better luck next time. In the midst of general apathy, and in spite of local divisions and discouragements, it gave a majority at the last election of nearly 1,000 for the Union ticket. This is decisive enouch for all practical purposes. Sammy may continue his legal pursuits in New York city, un disturbed by any hopes of representing the capital district in Congress. The Republican Ratification Meeting in New York City. The New York papers of Saturday bring us full reports of the enthusiastic Union demonstration in New York City on Fri day evening last. The principal speakers were General Kilpatrick, Hon. D. S. Dick inson, and Horace Greeley .gWe extract a few of the most significant sentences from these addresses : KILPATRICK ON THE COPPERHEAD PARTY. Now that war has yielded to peace, and commotion to repose, what party and men shall lead this great Republic to its great ness and its glory ? Shall it be the party struggling here to blot out in a death-bed repentance the damning record of the last four years ? Shall it be the Copperhead party over in my little State of New Jcr- sev, or the so-called Democratic party in New York, that has made a soldier their leader and has kicked out the meanest Copperheads from their party, but retains them as their orators ? Or such men as I juur luavur uuiiLiiri, wuu, uui cuiHclll I with hindering the efforts of our soldiers during the war and refusing to illuminate I your City Hail in honor of the victories of I Grant and Sherman and Sheridan, now proposes to burn not only the rebel flairs your soldiers took in battle, but dares to speak of destroying the banners under which our brave boys fought the battles of the Union. Hisses. Or the Woods, who apologized to the South because they were not able to stnd arms from the North to arm the rebels of the South against the sacred front of liberty ? Shall it be Horatio bevmour, who called a mob his friends when tbey were killing your wives and children upon the streets, and told em ?e tnuht they had gone about far e,nough' and them to go quietly to their homes? who said that we must have peace or an armistice, and would have topped great Sherman on his march down the sea ? It seems strange to me to see soldier whom I have learned to love, to see General Slocum standing on the same platform as Horatio Seymour, who stood i.ic a i i rour fiihTrrr T nea our ngniing iar enougn. A snouid I think General sFooum woull blush to hear orator, John Van Buren, who a year ago could not find .words enough to black guard Andrew Johnson, but now cannot find words sufficient to praise him, because now he is President of the United States Laugher that sacriligeous John Van Buren, who finds in the death of Mr. Lin coln, a Providence, in the knife of Wilkes Booth an instrument of Providence, and the removal of Mr. Lincoln a divine intent to give us a Democratic President. Now I say to them, to Slocum, to Van Buren, to Seymour and all, that all the good Democrats God ever made are in the Union party to-day. Applause. WHAT HE THINKS OF THE NEGROES. They appeal to the prejudices and pas sions of the past, they talk about the long heeled and thick-lipped niggers, but I can them that one hundred and fifty thousand soldiers have done more for the sal- . vation of this nation than all the Copper heads in it. Tremendous cheering and applause. I have more respect, and the nation will have more respect, for that crippled negro soldier than for the most elevated Copperhead in the country.

It was only last fall that we had passed through a great political struggle in which the patriotism of the people was shown in sustaining the country.

The latter class desire earnestly to understand your plans, and, if possible, support your au mi nistration. The report is meager and unsatisfactory, but I think it conveys, for the most part, the spirit of our conversation. Therefore, although tne whole tenor of your words led me to believe it, was not intended to be kept private, I have refrained from an swering the specific inquiries of anxious Ir lends, whom i met on my way nome, lest I miirht, in some wav, leave a wrong on their minus. impression Truly your friend, GEORGE L. STEARNS. The President of the United States. WASHINGTON. D. C., Oct. 3—11 A. M. I have just returned from an interview with President Johnson, in which he talked for an hour on the process of recon struction of Rebel States. His manner was as cordial, and his conversation as free, as in 1863, when I met him daily in Nashville. His countenance is healthy, even more so than when I first knew him. I remarked that the peopleof the North were anxious that the process of recon struction should be thorough, and they wished to support him in the arduous work, but their ideas were confused by the conflicting reports constantly circulated, and especially by the present position of the Democratic party. It is industriously circulated in the Democratic Clubs that he was going over to them. He laughingly replied, " Major, have you never known a man who for many years had differed from your views because you were in advance of him, claim them as his own when he came up to your stand-point ?" I replied, I have often. Hesaid, So have I, and went on : The Democratic party finds its old position untenable, and is coming to ours ; if it has come up to our position I am glad of it. You and I need no preparation for this conversation j we can talk freely on this subject, for the thoughts are familiar to us; we can be perfectly frank with each other. Ho then commenced with saying that the States are in the Union, which is whole and indivis ible. Individuals tried to carry them out, but did not succeed, as a man may try to cut his throat and be prevented by the by standers ; and you cannot say he cut his throat because he tried to do it. Individuals may commit treason, and be punished, and a large number of indi viduals may constitute a rebellion and be punished as traitors. Some States tried to get out of the Union, and we opposed it, honestly, because we believed it to be wrong ; and we have succeeded in putting down the Rebellion. The power of those persons wno made tne attempt nas been crushed, and now we want to reconstruct the State Governments and have the puser to uu it. xuts aiMlts IIISIUUIIOUH are prostrated, laid out on the ground, and thev must be taken up and adapted to the progress of events ; this cannot be done in a moment. We are making very rapid progress!, so rapid 1 sometimes cannot realize it; it appears like a dream. We must not be in too much of a hurry ; it is better to let them reconstruct them- I selves than to force them to it ; for if they go wrong, tho power is in our hands and we can check tbem at any stage, to the end and oblige them to correct theirerrors; we must be patient with them. I did not expect to keep out all who were excluded from the Amnesty, or even a large number ofthem, but I intended they should sue for pardon, and so realize the enormity of the crime they had committed, You could ot have br0acned tha 8ub j6Ct of equal suffrage, at the North, seven Jyears ago, and we mist remember that the ihJt ,ha Qti, w , and th w boen ol)i d t0 ' nn 'iatbletniththanthBNnrth has; we must give them time to digest a K P? large .r - .,, , , , . , . i " wllL Pended and digested at once. We must give them time to un derstand their new position. I have nothing to conceal in these mat ters, and have no desire or willingness to take indirect courses to obtain what we want. Our government is a grand and lofty structure ; in searching for its foundation we find it rests on the broad basis of popu lar ngnts. vine elective franchise is not a natural right, but a political right. I am opposed to giving the States too much power, and also to a great consolidation of power in tne Central Government. If I interfered with the vote in the Rebel States, to dictate that the negro shall vote, I might do the same thing for my own purposes in Pennsylvania. Our nly safety lies in allowing each State to control the right of voting by its own fit h, pi n.o.oI it .hf they rebel, we have the army and can control them by it, and, if necessary, by legislation also. If the General Govern ment controls the right to vote in the States, it may establish such rules as will restrict the vote to a small number of persons, and thus create eentral despot ism. My position here is different from what would be if I was in Tennessee. There I should try to introduce negro suffrage gradually; first those who had served in the army; those who could read write,and perhaps aproperty qualiflca- ior oiners, say 2uu or $ 20U. It would not do to let the negroes have universal suffrage now; it would breed a of races. There was a time in the Southern States when the slaves of large owners looked a let the the to the the you to him he'll il vls political strength ; they thought we gained three-nahs rer.reL.nti upon non-slave owners because thev not own slaves; the Irager the nunber slaves their mastersowned, the prouder were, and this has produced hostility between the mass of the whites and the negroes. The outrages are mostly from whites against the ne gro, and from the negro upon the non- slaveholding whites. The negro will vote with the late mas ter whom he does not hate, rather than the non-slaveholding white, whom does hate. Universal suffrage would create another war, not against us, but a of races. Another thing. This Gnvnrnmont is freest and best on the earth, and I feel - . i . , .

Congress apportions representation by States, not districts. Many years ago, I moved in the Legis lature that the apportionment of Repre sentatives to Congress, in Tennessee, be by qualified voters. The apportionment is now fixed until before that time we might change basis of representation from population qualified voters, North as well as South, in due course of time, the States, without regard to color, might extend the elective franchise to all who possessed cer mental, moral or such other qualifica tions, as might be determined by an en lightened public judgment.

The following are the most essential portions of Henry Ward Beecher's ser mon endorsing President Johnson, which has been referred to by telegraph. "We copy from the New York Times ; The two great questions now unfolding into practical politics are : First. The ad mission of the Southern States to the partici pation of the administration of national government ; and second, the granting of the risrhts of the black roan. It is best for us that restoration should at once com mence. It is part of our belief that all men should partake actively in me ad ministration of civil affairs. Some prece dent qualifications should be made, of course. The one prime cause of our diffi culty should be done away with. States should be conditioned upon the restoration of slavery. Communities snouia not be permitted to take part in the government until so conditioned that they cannot de stroy it. They must swear never again to attempt to destroy us. iney must not only declare their act of secession null and void, but ab initio false and heretical. They should also establish the RIGHTS OF THE FREEDMAN to work when, where, as as he pleases ; to be made the equal of all other men before a court and in the eye of the law. and have as readv access to the court as any other man. I hold also, that he should have had the suffrage, because it is a natural richt. He has the risrht to make the laws which govern him, and to deter mine the magistracies under which he lives. He has a right to be a citizen, be cause he is a man. I think it would have saved the land trouble if these rights bad been given to tne treedmen. 1 do not know wnas tne president's mind is, f, indeed, he knows himself. Much com iplaint has been made of his reticence, but confess that I think his reticence is ad mirable in one who has nothing to say. In his answer to South Carolina's delega tion South Carolina that before she was received again into the family sends her advir-o to vYashinirlon, aud suggests to the President that he would better do, how refreshing he (the President) said we must be practical in our efforts, and I think his course is eminently wise, and we nave never nad a man in the f resi dential chair who has proven himself more wise in the solution of quetion brauqht to him than President Johnson. I think his leaving of these questions to Congress emi nently vnse and much better than would be the Caesarian practice of deciding for himself, and by himself alone. But in re gard to criticism and advice, I don't think we are so very free from censure. When a b acR man can nqe in tne cars, can ap pear in court, can own property, can attain to the full stature of citizenship here, we may turn to the lecturing of our Southern brethren. I confess that if I want to ad vise them, I should "speak very mildly, be cause if they should ask me in what State I was born I should be compelled with blushes to admit that it was the loyal State of Connecticut. Let me express my gratitude to God that He had appointed without our forethought, and almost without our knowledge, a man singularly fitted to takeupthe work where his martyred predecessor left it. Thus far I cannot lay my hand upon an act which does not seem apt, fitting and most wise. With a clear eye, a skillful hand, he has gone on weaving most cleverly the robe which was to cover the entire brothorhood of the States of the Union. The extraor dinary unanimity in the nation, in respect to him, is mast gratifying. We who voted for him and made him our Vice-President, of course, are proud of him, but what most nils my neart witn gratitude, and is anun qualified marvel and thanksgiving, is the complete conversion of our enemies, who opposed him at the date of his election. with such virulence and spite. Let us, however, be charitable, let us hope and even pray that this sudden conversion may be genuine, and that they never will back slide. In regard to the President, our President, the country's President, I think he believes that all measures for the relief of the blacks, must have ,the cordial sup- poat and countenance of the South. We here cannot aid them; they are at arm's length, and it is not wise for the CENTRAL GENERAL GOVERNMENT tn nttpmpt tn regnlatR th - fi- Tite laws and interests of the government and of ourselves will prove of no avail if they are hostile and unpleasant to the white men of the South. Oaths and obligations won't help the matter, and if President Johnson is waiting for the adoption of these plans by the people of the South, he is acting with charac teristic prudence and sagacity. A colored man's testimony is to be taken, like any one else's, for what it's worth; but let it be taken tor just that. 1 thank God the President is the Southern man; he's . - just the man we want, if we are going to reconstruct, l ou can't manage hearts as you can bricks and mortar. No New England man could do as well as Mr. Johnson, although he might know more. He is of the bouth, be knew tbem, and will, I know, do more for them than any one else. Now is the winning time; the time to make by anection on the whole. I BELIEVE IN HIM. We never can deny man in this coun try long any civil right for which he is well fitted. If the negro can be proven for the suffrage, for the holding of pro perty, iie win not long rje Kept out ol it. a point of transition, a property quali fication might be accepted not as final, but as a transitory measure. Nor do I believe that this nation would put guns into the hands of 150,000 negroes, and then deny them the right to vote. I believe, wlln oosraan, mat a man wno has carried musket has a right to carry a ballot. Let us have this FOR A BEGINNING. those who have fuught our battles have right to vote, and I would like to see Democrat, the man who can look this black hero in the face and say he 13 not fit vote. He himself is not fit to vote. Some people say " are we never to hear LAST OF THE NEGRO." We have heard nothing but neoro since day of our birth. Well, why don't suppress him? I tell you you've got dine and sup on the negro until you do justice. When you do, he'll sink awayJfrQm oauousses, conventions or par tioa : cut unless you do he'll haunt you, haunt you here and haunt yon there, a blacker than he haunts you hereafter.

I Now estimating the weight of a silver dollar at one ounce, sixteen ot them would Mr. James Fair, the calculating prodi gy has made the following calculations of the national debt, taking as a premise that its amonnt is, in round numbers, four thousand millions dollars: A silver dollar measures U inches in di ameter. Hence 8 dollars laid side by side make one toot, 24 one yard, and 24,7.40 an English mile. Th circumference of the globe is 21,000 miles, and therefore $912,- 384,000 laid in one line would girdle it. But' even this enormous sum being less 125,000 tons, and therefore 125 ships, of i,uuu mns eacn, wouia De required to for ward it by water.

Still another interesting guage of this huge amount. Were it possible for a man to count $66 per minute and continue to work steadily without intermission for ten hours of each day for six days in the week, it would take him 365 years and 40 days to complete the computation by sin gle silver dollars. Thus, it would employ 365 men more than oue year, 4,380 men more than one month, 113,980 men one for ten hours, and 1,138,300 of those TO -T. It PI vums to finish the job. McKean Buchanan being inter in a soliloquy on the stage of the (Mass.)

Editor Cleveland Leader: As there have appeared recently in your paper and in the Herald, articles calcul ted to convey the mistaken idea that the tabling of Mr. Binney's resolutions by tho General Convention of the ipiscopal Church, was the result of disloyalty to the government of a majority of that body, it will, I am sure, be gratifying to the churchmen of our city to see published satisfactory evidence of what was the true cause lor such action. The following remarks and explana tions, made by Dr. Korfoot, one of the leading men of tho Convention, presents in a proper light the reasons which induced the tabling of these resolutions. He well says it was not a question of loyalty or as to the merits of or demerits of "the resolu tions, but as to the expediency of their present consideration. A CHURCHMAN. Rev. Dr. Kerfoot, of Connecticut, said that when similar resolutions were before the House the other day, and a vote was taken, he had heard the expression, "Sir, you are disloyal ;" but whatever might be the loyalty of such men, his own was ten fold as great. The question before tho House was not a question of loyalty; and he would tell the nation, through the re porters present, that it was not a question of loyalty. He appealed to the veneral.lo delegate from Maryland to know whether he was not loyal. Judge Chambers There is no doubt of that.j The speaker added that he had for years opposed secessionisni, and every other ism ; that he had been driven from his home and his college, but was told that if he would chango his sentiments he could save both ; but in the face of the enemy and their officers, when a prisoner in their hands, he had declared his principles and bided the issue. He expressed regret for having introduced personal matters, but had done so only for the purpose of satis fying the House that he was loyal, and would rather have died than see" the re bellion succeed. Heobjeeted to tho whole proceeding, not on his own account, but on hehftlf o"m His Vn tlirc-u. All over the land the telegraph had carried the message that he was disloyal; but he was not speaking for himself, but for those brethren who had told him that hostility awaited them at their homes. The speaker added that he had not heard a singlercsolution on the floor of the House which was not in consonance with his own principles; but the convention had been called together for other pur poses, and there were many gentlemen in the House who much preferred that these matters should be let alone. The House had this morning loined in the nraise nf God; but was this praising of God to re sult in dividing brethren ? - The question was not as to the merits ar demerits of the resolutions, but as to the expediency of their presont consideration. He had made these remarks in behalf of several clergy men who were apprehensive that their votes, when the question came to be taken, might be misunderstood. DR. KERFOOT'S POSITION. nf i would have been read to the rwnvantmn on Tuesday by the President of Trinity College, Hartford, Dr. Kerfoot, had the convention received the protest of T)r Vinton, which we printed yesterday. I desire heroby to record that in votiner on Saturday, the 14th inst., to lay upon tno table all consideration of the resolu tion proposed by the honorable delegate from Pennsylvania, which called on the Bishops to add to their proposed topics of thanksgiving, the further topics of the triumph of the national authority, and the ueMrucuon 01 slavery, tne meaning and intention of my vote "was solely to prevent unprofitable and painful debate in this nouse, tne distraction from its proper, legitimate work, the grief and Tvpnr,r.u re moval from among us of the representa tives of some dioceses now again with us, and formally welcomed bv an official de claration to n share in our work, by our thus raising questions beyond the line of our duty as an ecclesiastical bodv, and on which such representatives as" all must know could not agree with us, and the inevitable result, which could nor but be foreseen, that all loyal men loyal in the fullest sense of the word must tWoK,. seem to be put down in the record of this convention ;h;h'o.. e., tne nation and its universal freedom. I hereby put on record my hostility, early and late, to the rebellion ; my hearty joy and thanjrs"iying for tho national triumph over all resist ance, and my profound gratitude to God for his wonderful mercy and glorious work in the overthrow of African slavery in this land. May rebellion and honH.moor. sort be ever banished from our nation and tho Church. May order and freedom, truth and love, rule us all as citizens and as Christians. John B.
