The Geneva Tribunal. GENEVA, August 12.-Mr. Cohen, English barrister who drew up there] for the Crown on the subject of Amen claims for losses sustained by the mere tte marine of the United States, has b summoned* here from London. This g: rise to conjecture that a decision has I rendered by the Board upon the cen auestion and England's responsibility direct losses claimed by America, and i Mr. Cohen is called in"to assist the Bri counsel arguing upon the amount of d ages to be assessed by thc Board. On many reports current here concerning proceedings of the Boan1, and present sition of arbitration, is that after-theo of the two Governments -.were presen the counsel on either side went int lengthy discussion regarding Englai r?sp?nsmi??tyrth'? argument turning m? ly apon the question whether, the Bril authorities.had . exorcised due diligenci p/event Confederate .cruisers from esc mg out of her .ports, and whether any s responsibility, as American claims foU< ed upon the permission to said cruiser! take coal at British stations.

Re nrrmg to first principles, he showed length how the Goverwnentjhas been din ing from constitutional, moorings end t come the*play-thing of an irresjbonsil ' Congress at the dictation of a usurpi Executive. He r?viewed Gr?mVs ?dtni ist ration with severity, but with moder tion, discussing official gift-taking as b: berv, citing the case of Sir John "Tren in England. He favored ope term in ?1 election of the President by the dire vote of the people. The re-election Grant would be a great national disasie He accepted Greeley on the principle universal pressure. As circumstances b yond human control have -limited tl choice to two men, patriots cannot hej? tate to choose Greeley.

He pleaded fe a return.of ancient, reverence Cor thc Cor stitution. and official, obligations. H speech was well received and generally aj plauded. [From the "Wilmington Daily Journal ThetBlecUon-Judge Merrimon^-Hli D*ty. The indications now are that Caldwe has received a small nominal majority i the State. 'u . We say "nominal majority,"'.for th reason that we do not believe that he ha received an actual majority of thc lega votes cast. We are still of thc opinion that it wil be necessary, to have Jae-official return before anything definite can bc ascertain ed. Under all circumstances,,, and count ing all the fraudulent voWcasf, the vot< is an exceedingly close one. ' " 1 t Wc ld not by any means,- however, ad mit that all the votes cast were legal votes -Far from it. We are informed that in Brunswick county, at ono precinct, there were eighty votes cast that were not reg istered. At one precinct in this county, we learn that one if not two negro military compa nies marched with arms to the polls. We are informed, also, that in this .cona, ty men were registered on the day ol election. We are informed, also, that others were registered after sundown before the elec tion, in plain violation o?" the letter of the law. ~ ( At other places thc votes cast exceeded the number of voting population,, as shown by the las census. Nor are these all the evidences of fraud. . tn additionr'to fraud, intimidation was fre ly resorted to. After Greeley's electicm sses will neither fear nor hesitate to ni ice foll disclosur#of the' force and in timidation practised upon them. , In view, therefore, of all the facts, tye demand that Judge Merrimon shall con test the election ol' Governor Caldwell be fore the next Legislature. . . We do not say this from any ebulici?n of feeling, consequent upon defeat and dis appointment, but we demand it as a duty . .:n Judge Merrimon to the Conservative . pie of ?Torth Carolina and of the United States. From thc Legislature of .North Carolina we can and willobtain justice. If fraudu lent votes have been cast, and of this no reasonable man can entertain a doubt, the patient, honest- and intelligent investiga tion that the Legislature will give tin matter will enable the wqrld to see the truth, and the whole- truth, This is all we ask. , 1 f we have beeil fair ly beaten-if a. majority of the legal voto?i cast, a week ago to-day, were cast against the Conservative tiek?-t, we tk> not ask that Judge Merrimon be declared Govern or'of North Carolina. We do demand, however.'if bo was le gally ejected, that y.-e ?hall not be cheated out of our victory. . We repeat that we do not speak from mere temper, or soreness, or passion; tut from a set led determination to haw the matter judicially determined. The constitution of the State makes it the duty of the Legislate to decide all cases of contested ejections for Governor and other officers On the State ticket, un der such mles and regulations. 4s it may prescribe. We now, therefore, formally demand of Judg? Merrini?n and the other candidates on oar State ticket,-br con test formally the clet'tion of their Radical opponents, so that' the'Legislature may fake the proper steps in the premises. v\"e demand this, in the name of the Con servative people of North Carolina, and of the United States, .aral we call upon the press of the State te unite with us in the demand, and.also to unite with us in call; ing upon otu* friends In all parts of the State to gather lip arrd put upon record the evidences pf, fraud that now every where abound. ...

It is because the people of the Seuth believe that the mis sion of Greeley, is " peace" that they give hj*m their earnest support ; and when a leging and conspicuous leader of.the ijiheral Republicans, ano a supporter of Greeley, gives public expression to such sentiments as we'have just quoted, the Southern people take new courage m the conflict Which lies-befdre them.

The resolutions provide for a call bf a State Convention on the 28th mst., 'to be held in Columbia just one week after the Re publican Convention. Present indications point to a split in the Republican Conven tion ; and for the sake ot honest' govern ment it is sincerely hoped that there will be enough honesty in the Republican Con vention of the 21st, to stem the current of .misrule and corrupt icin^ and nominate men who are decent, honest and.capable.

The room was crowded to its utmost, occupying all of the seats and available standing room. . . The various speeches delivered were for cible, and some of them powerful.

' i ? Tile Radical Confession of Radical , Wioug-Doiug. The disclosures of fraud. and, extrava gance, on the part of the State officials, coatajned in the Columba.dispatches of this paper, are neitheri new nor strange! These identical charges have been set forth, week after week, by the opposition press. Yet there is a distinction with a difference between the two. sets of charges -the one came from the representative taxpayers : the other comes from office holders of the Radical party, men who stand high in power, and were trbs ed im plicitly by the ver}' officials who are now arraigned before their party. It TOS easy enough to pooh pooh, or flatly deny, what^ The Charleston Jiews might 6ay ; but the whole complexion of the Accusation is changed, in Radical eyes, when Senator and District Attprney Corbin, Secretary of State Cardozo, Judge On- and Superinten dent Stoibrand are the public prosecutors. These .officers have been led'on step by step, and the revelations which they make, aa nen who know ol' that they* speak,, shall condemn the culprits to lasting shame, even ii' they do no not .cause the portals, pf the penitentiary to yawn for their re ception. Whatever difficulty Superintend ent Stoibrand may have in'equipping and provi.*ion*g his ward?, it is not to be doubted thaj he would contrive to. find a ration of bread'and fat bacon, as well as a penitential cell, for such convicted public servants as Hie courts might commit to bis keeping. Great would be the fall from the diamonds, the fast horses, the ripe wines, the. Turkish carpets, the Ven etian mirrors, the whole pnde and pomp jf successful jobbery, tq ike close-cropped lair, coarse garb, hard pallet oed harder labor of the State prison. To this Com plex :vn-ran r rmrv wnw nv Inert The principal "allegations of fraud have aeen made by Senator Corbin, in a public speech at Greenville, and in the course of the Blue Ridge suit. He charges that the Land Commission and the Sinking fund Commission were huge cheats. He charges that six million dollars ol* State jonas were unconstitutionally issued. He marges that about seven ruiftioiis of con version bonds were issued, while only one nillion dollars were actually converted. [Ie charges that Speaker Moses, tho prom neat Radical candidate for' Governor, is .orrunt^to th': core, and has been bribed io support nearly every measure of im jort?nce which the Legislature have pass-' id. 'Judge Orr is .equally severe in Iiis l?nunciation bf thc State officials, and de jares that thc accused persons should bc prosecuted at once. Secretan,' of State ?ardozo, an educated colored man ot' ex telleut reputation, charges that the pre luded conversion bonds, now in suit, are lot issurd pursuant to law. Ho pronounces he Validating law and the '.'onyersion aw null and void. Besides these, there ire hosts of other iiHegations ; amongst hem are the statements that $50,800 of , ?he Blue Ridge scrip 'vere paid lo Treas irer Parker, $2<;.0UO to General Worth ngton, and $10,000 to Mr. Hardy Solo non, ???s scrip, recently decided by Mr? lust ice Willard tob" unconstitutional, was issued for the excludive purpose q/ liq ind iting the debts of the Blue Ridge Rail road. No one believes that the persons lamed as vecivmg thc sums before men tioned had lyiy legitimate claim against .'lie company. As to the charges against [Speaker Moses, il is believed in Columbia that he received $10,000 for'his influence in passing the Bjue Ridge bill, and a like liuount for the Validation bill, for the Greenville consolidation '. ! :id for de-,' feating the impeachment ol' GovernorScoti The man li ves like a Sybarite; the Uni ted States Treasury .D-[ :,.ftn:-it oould.no! i>rint gEeenhaeks faster timi ?ir.
