Al present, two or three columns ill each number aro givon to a Hlatomont of tho principles, nud a calculation of tho prospects of Radicalism in Eng? land, by n clover, end, wo suppose, expensive cor respondent.

Bo wo quietly and soberly sat down, and, laking tho last cousus for a basis, wo esti? mated tho advance of each town in our division ni population nineo thal limo. If wo gut within six rows ol Oipplo troon of tho truth, it is a wonder." This census was indeed quiotly taken. Tim RICHMOND Whig, speaking ot registration and tho duty of Ibo pooplo of Virginia in rogard to it, has the following vory sonaiblo remarks: "Con? gress rules tho tl ovoroniout, and tho Republican mu ly rules Congress.

THIS ATTOI11HUY OBNEnAL'S OPINION. Wc publish this morning (ho opinion of I he Attorney Ocnoral. Il is n rory ablo opinion, and from bia point of view, clear and conclusivo. Wc must suppose that its publication means that tho President intends to bnHO somo action upon il. Otherwise timi publication is not only usolcss but mischievous. If Ibis opinion is tho propor construction of (ho Reconstruc? tion Acl, Iben nil tho orders which havo boen issued from the Head Qunrlcrs of Ibis Military District nre al once cancelled, anti what is moro, lite ofiiccr issuing them is responsible to any individual in damages for any loss (hat those ! orders h rive cn used. Whether Ibis interpretation of Hie Act is cor? rect, is a legal question which wo will not undertake lo decide. Rut ll docs not roquiro n legal education lo porccivo (hat (bia wholo question of construction depends rather upon Ibo intention of tho Act, than ils words. The ronl iasuo is not what (his or (hat clnusocan bo interpreted to mean, but what really was (be power, with which Congress intended lo invest (ho military commanders of (he District. In I other words this Act is something moro (han a law of which any individual may claim tho technical construction-it is (ho solution of a political problem, which has an inllucnco wider than any mero legal enactment affecting only private rights. In examining (his opinion, therefore, tho in? quiry ns to its policy, ns well ns its technical merits, forces itself upon our considcralion. And iu discussing ibis question il is impossible lo disregard (ho public history of its passage. In IHlii?, tiflcr thc sur rc inter of (len. LEB, il immediately beenmo a question, whether thc ,cceded Slates wore to bo restored to (ho Union. If so, on what (erma, and by whom these terms wcro lo bo prescribed. The Presi? dent claimed (ho righi to effect this restoration by a sci.onie of his own devising. Congross refused lo admit his righi, and for two years this question, as to whore (ho righi of re-ad oi?B9ion rr .lcd, exercised thc national lcgisla titre. It was settled by the passage of thc Rc conslruci ion Aol of 18C7. That Act decided Ibo right to bo in Congress, tho law-making power of thc Government, aud proscribed tbo terms and modo of ila accomplishment. When this Act was passed, although over bis veto, (ho President resolved (o execute il, and did so hy tho appointment of tho live Command? ing Gonorals required by ila provisions. They were appointed and sent lo (heir com mauds without instructions, and were (bus compelled to depend upon (heir own construction of (he Act. Il is difficult to understand why this was so. Thc santo obie officer who has now construed tho Acl, was then as he is now, thc chief Law officer of tho Government -tho samo views which be holds now, it is (o bo presumed ho hold Ihon-and suTcly if cvor thoro was a propor lime when tho Com? manding (louerais should havo received full and preciso instructions ns (o their powers and duties, it was then when thoy were entering upon tho exorcisa of (hoir novel authority, and before their action could be complicated hy the conflict of civil and military powor. If, aa tho Attorney-General says, "their education and training have not boon of thc kind to fit them for tho delicate and difficult task of giving construction to suoh a statute aa that now under consideration," why for four muni hs have they nol only been allow- > cd, but compelled to construe it? Not only so. A mouth had not elapsed after their appoint- i mont bofore, by their acta and ihoir ordere, < they gave unmistakable evidence of what their i construction waa-a construction which, wo now learn from the Attorney-General, was unwar- i ranted and illegal, and by whioh Ibo lives and I tho property of freo oitixons for all thia timo i were unjustly imperilled. Why did not the i President ?uterfore? Why, during (beac mondia I of illegal oppression, waa the military com- < mander of this District, for example, allowed i (o "put himself upon an equality with the law i making power of tho Union," or "to placo him- ? self on blghor ground than the President," and i "to declare, in o ff rot, I am tho Hiato?" \ If, dnring all this time, the authority of the military commander depended upon the Presi- < dent's construction of the Act, why did he not 1 do his duty and construe il? Why did he hand i over tho pooplo of those .States to (he mercy ( and discretion of a more military usurpation T i If, on the contrary, thia powor of construe- ] lion waa only to bo exercised in conformity I with some political necessity, what has occurred I to ohango tho condition of things existing at * the passage of the act T ' Whenoe did tho mili- 1 tary commandera derive the construction which > (hey have enforood, and why was not that con- < nt ruction authoritatively corrected t But not ' only havo thc commanding ofheors the right to complain that they havo been betrayed by the Qovornmcnt, but what ia our position-the poo plc of th eso r?tales ? We watched with painful * anxiety tho debates on this bill-Il waa paescd. * Tho commanding officers wero appointed. What wea our duly ? To obey or to disobey thom ? 1 Where did we look for information ? To the - President. We saw him exeoute tho Act ; we Baw bim appoint the commanders; wo read order after order, dealing with our most im- i portant interesta, reversing our oldest establish- u cd laws, revolutionising the whole frarao work 1 of our Atnie Government, bot we heard no word ? of disapproval, no reversal of theae ordors, no interference in our behalf. Take, for example, ? Order No. 10, whioh has, porhaps, interfered ' more generally and moro directly with the law I of the State than any other. If wo had the J right to suppose for a moment that tho Le- I giolalure of the Slate would be allowed to E meet and to take charge of tho intercala of the State, doea any ono doubllhat it would have boen assembled and called upon ? lo do ita duty? But thia order waa Issued - without the slightest manifestation of disap- c proval on the part of tho Government, and wo V naturally concluded that il waa ia the exercise - of a recognized authority. And under thia im- 1 pression we have adapted our acllon to what Jj wo oonooived lo be the law of tho land, and o havo proceeded in good faith towards the work ? of nco ns intel ion in tho mod? which we had ] the right to bolieve was recognised aa legitimate -. by the Government. All this effort is now labor j lost. ? ' . ' ' ? But behind ail thia, there in another question, and one of the most direct practical Imp?rtanos t lo os.

Wc hove too much at stake now to re? peat our errors. If Hie 1'rosidcnl undertakes al this day-after permitting, without ono word of remonstrance or objection, iho practical en? forcement of ono theory of tito Reconstruction Act to reverse that theory, to prercnt thc exer? cise of thia extravagant claim of military author? ity, and lo remand thcSlato t o I he control of its own civil authority, lui us at lariat hnvo some security Ihnl ho will persevere in his action, anti thal if, under Iho opinion of tho Attorney General, wo refuse obedience lo thc usurpa? tion of tho military commanders, wo shall bo hold harmless for our conduct : Ihnl if Ibis oon? slruction is r?pudiai cd by Congress, which Mr. SvAMir.itv's opinion will as cortainly call to? gether in July as if thc summons had already issued, wo shall not bo held responsible, for 1 tho delay ia thc work of reconstruction, nnd tho Act will not bo amended so as to bear moro harshly upon our rights and interests. There is another point worthy of our con- 1 sideratlon. If Ibo Altorney-Qciiorul's con? struclion ia tho righi ono, then Governor OHR ia tho Governor of this State, and tho present j legislature has tho necessary authority lo make lawB for Ibo Slate. Then tho ardors which havo boen issued by Gen. SICKLES aro no longer of force. Thc confusion, thc uncer? tainly which will result from this state of things no language can fully describo. If Or der No. IO ia not of force, then any creditor | may instruct tho sheriff to enforoo judgment. Will the debtors of Ibo Slate submit quietly lo tho sudden aacrifioc of their properly ? Moro limn Hint, every caso of violence, every disturb? ance, we become responsible for, and it will bo absolutely necessary that tho Legislatura should be called together at once to make some law for the Stato. If any man in thia Hinte be? lieves that good is to result from thia condition of tbinga ho possesses a power of vision whioh we do not. Whether the administration of Gon. SICKLES has been wise or not, is a question into which wo do not at present enter. Much that he has ! dono wo think eminently wise-some things which he baa done we would have had otherwiso, and whenever that question cornea up for dis? cussion, we will expresa our opinion frankly, and, wo hope, justly. But the question whioh la now raised ls a much larger one. We do not even undertake Lo Bay that tho opinion of Mr. STAN BE HY is ?ot legally corred. AU we say ls, that ?f it ls, it ought to havo been issued months ' ?go. That now, correct or not, it will surely -rento inisohlovoua oxcitcment-will aeoure a lesslon of Congress in July-will give to tho liiaussion of that body a violeneo and bitter? lesa from whioh no good can result to us, and nterrupt tho progress toward reconstruction, which we wore making quietly and surely. The question raised by thia opinion ia the >ld controversy between tho President and tho Republican party. That controversy can do is no good. From present appearanooa it can I md only one way. But at this limo, and under > ixlsting circumstances, any fixed and aeltled policy on the part of tbe Government ia better J lian a vacillating course, whioh makes lasueB t o-day whioh it abandons to-morrow-which ; ,'xcito hopos it cannot fulfill, and whioh only jrovolf.es a resistance thal cannot bo effeotivu without ita support, and which, when the time ionic", it has not the strength to support.
