S. Cezzeos one day: "All honor to woman, the sweetheart, the wife; The delight of the fireside, by night and by day, Who never does anything wrong in her life, Except when permitted to have her own way." -Several New York publishers and li erary men aro again urging the passage of an inter? national copyright law, and a renewed effort to that effect is hoing mado in Congress. The last bill drawn up provides for a joint com? mission of English and American gentleman, to initiate a movement on both Bides of tho ocean. -The first edition of Queen Victoria's Diary, consisting of ono hundred and fifty thousand oopios, is nearly Bold, and will realize a profit of ?10 000 at least. Alter tho edition had been printed and bound a grosB and abominable ty? pographical error was found in it, on account of which a leaf had to be changed in overy copy. It was the work of a mischievous com? positor. -Mr. J. B. Hopkins, who waa one of the editors of the London Index-org tn of the Con? federate Government-bas just published a brochure, entitled '-The Fall of the Confedera? cy " which the Imperial Review characterizes as'"a valuable contribution to the literature of the subject," and adds: "He discusses impar? tially the most important questions involved in the bistorv of the struggle, and the views that he expresses are obviously the result of careful and unprejudiced thought. From in? ternal evidence, it ia clear that Mr. Hopkins vfrites with special knowlege." THE CONVENTION. CONVENTION HELD BY AUTHORITY OF THE RECONSTRUCTION LAWS OF CONG RF.*-3, TO FRAME A STATE CONSTITUTION FOR SOUTH CAROLINA. This now famous body yesterday rested from its labors and devoted its attention chiefly to J the consideration of two subjects. The first was on the propriety of giving two Senators in the Goueral Assembly to the City of Charleston instep J of one. On this question the Beaufort d?l?gation, with singular and unusual unan? imity, united their forces, and, by dra? gooning others into their solid phalanx, suc? ceeded in making a very obstinate fight. Col leton, Beaufort and Berkeley olaimed the same privileges which it was proposed to accord to Charleston, on the score, not of wealth, taxa? tion or.diversity of interest, but simply on the plea of equal population. The former up? country prejudices found vent, ancient jeal? ousies were dragged again into debate, and, notwithstanding the plausible excuses offered on both Bides for remembering old scores, the discussion bordered on the acrimonious and severe. The second and only other subject of discus? sion was a report of a committee recommend? ing th? convention to petition Congress to loan the State ono million of dollars. C. 1?. Leslie, of Barnwell, opposed the reso? lution in a strong, eloquent and impressive speech, dashed, of course, with that strong in? fusion of humor which characterizes the Les lelian style. - He said that tho proposed peti? tion was a B?preme humbug. It mesut simply nothi' g at ail but a shrewd, eunning attempt on the parapi its reverend author (Cain) to obtain votes-but votes at the expense of the poor deluded freedmen, whose friend he pre? tended to be, and who in the end w mid find themselves deceived by the misrepresentations mad?. - No man sooner than himself, said Mr. Leslie, would assist in securing aid for the im- 1 poverished freedmen; but never, never, never would ho lend his voice or influence to a Boheme of deception Uko that proposed. There was no probability whatever that Congress ' would grant the loan solicited. It bad not the means to do so. The treasury was already cramped, and the reverend gentleman, if he was familiar with the late report of , tho Secret arv- of iha Treasury, was aware of the : fact. Henoo, the -effect of his adroitly worded resolution would be to hold out a hope to the : freedmen of tho State, that could not by any possibility bo realized. The very audience . present would carry away impressions from that hall which would tako new and exagger? ated shapes, and, being scattered among that i class throughout tho State, would tend more 1 than anything yet done to ere a to a belief that ; would novor be rowardod, and result in a do- : moralization disastrous to tho interests of the individual ant', the State. , He would lond himself to no such scheme. He thought it dishonest, and designed for no other purpose than to build up the political reputation of an aspirant for power on the gul- , libility pf the poor people whom ho affected to i represent. In short, Mr. leslie took tho skin off ; wherever his scalpel touched, and evinced a ] dogroo of power in debato with which be Las not, in the running fire of past discussion, been 1 accredited. _._1 lt. U. Cain defended bis measure as well as < he could under the circumstances, but the j sentiment of the convention was protty evenly divided, at the hour of adjournment, as to the ! propriety of making a request to Congress that ' waa evidently but formal in.ita character, and based on no substantial probability of benefit, i PROCEEDINGS OF THE CONVENTION. ! TWENTY-SIXTH DAY. j The convention assembled at the usnal hour. Mr. N. G. Parker, from the Committee on . Finance, reported Boveral. articles of the con- ! Btitution relative to taxation, which wcro or- ' derod to be read and printed. < On motion of C. C. Bowen, section 8 of tho l legislative part of the constitution was recon? sidered; whereupon, be offered tho following i amendment: "And the county of Charleston i shall be allowed two Senators. ' ' Along debate ensued, in'which the ablest I speakers in the convention participated, and ? thc question was finally decided by the yeas 1 and nays in the affirmative by U^e close voto of i fifty-five to fiUy-one. The section as amended i wai then adopted. The next question which crf?no under con? sideration was the favorablo report of the Com- i mlttee on Petitions on tho resolution of R. II. Cain, requesting Congress to make ? loa i to i tho State of one million dollars*?willi which to embie freedmen to purchase lands forced into l market by legal process. i On this subject speeches were made by R. H. Cain, the mover of tho resolution,, and C. P. ! Leslie, the latter opposing the adoption of tho reiiolution. The Convention adjourned without deciding th 3 question. HIGH CHURCH AND Low CHURCH -DIFFICUL? TIES-THE TYNO TRIAL.-The New York cor? respondent of the Philadelphia Ledg?r writes under date of the 10th inst.: A bombshell-so to speak-was thrown into the ecclesiastical court, convened by Bishop Potter, at St. Peter's Church, this morning, lo try Rev. 8tephen H. Tyng, Jr., lor a breach of the canons of the Episcopal Church, in tho shape of a letter from Jay Cooke, Est)., of Philadelphia, of which tho following is the sab stance : "Rev. Dr. Lee-I send by mail to your ad? dress a portion of a sermon recently preached by Rev. Richard Newton. D.D., and I p ay you to read this carefully and prayerfully. You aro now engaged in trying the Rev. S. H. Tyng for an alleged breach of canonical law, when, at the same time, if I understand it, Bishop Potter does not hesitate to enter tho Church of St. Albans, recognising tho Romish practico enact? ed there by confirming a class. A large num? ber of the laity are in full sympathy with tho course of tho Rev. Dr. Tyng, and I am under the impression that upon an intelligent under? standing of the case three-fourths of the laity would be on his bide." The lotter concludes with the expression ot tho hope that nj decision should be arrived at in the case as would "result in still further dif? ferences in our loved cbjirch." Rev. Dr. Beach, the presiding clergyman, said all suoh communications were out of or? der, and deprecated all attempts of this kind to make "outside" capital. Ho was also very severe on Mr. Cooke for writing the lotter. Tho witnesses produced by tho presenters were Thomas W. Dougherty, of IN ow Bruns? wick, Robert Howell, sexton of Christ Church, of tho same place, a Mr. Van Rensellaer, and ono or two others. The testimony related chiefly to mattera of fact, about which there is no controversy, such as tho addressing of a lotter by Rev. Mr. Stubbs to tho defendant, forbidding bim to officiate in the parish Mr. Tyng's disregard of tho warning, etc., etc. Tho court then adjourned till to-morrow. Tho proceedings, agreeably to goncral con? sent, wcro held with upon doors. The ball was thronged, and among tho spectators wore many distinguished clergymen, not only of tho ?piscopal Church, but of other denomina-' tions, with hero and there a few ladies. Ibe trial is looked upon by tho general public as a fair and square contest botwoen tbe high and low churchmen, and is likely to determine which Bhall in futuro have control in this dio? cese and New Jersey. The best legal talentos* ' employed on both sides. Contracts havo boen entered into for the construction of the great masonic templo at Philadelphia, to oe built, in live yoais, and to cost three-quarters ol a million dollars. The corner-stone is to bo laid on St. John's Day. ? Things in Washington THE REJOINDEB OF PBESIDENT JOHNSON TO GENERAL GRANT TN CONGRESS-MEBBXMENT or min-a-GENE ?AL CHANT'S FINAL SHOT -OENEBAL M'OLELLAN AND THE MISSION TO CHEAT BEITAIN. The Washington correspondent of the Balti? more 8nn writes under date of February ll: The President's rejoinder to General Grant and accompanying statement of members of the cabinet, were read in the House this after? noon, and listened to by the members and spectator a with undi vid d attention. The President's lotter did not excite any sp-ci al re? mark during the reading, but the letters of Messrs. Wells, Mcculloch nnd Seward were greeted with outbursts of laughter from the Re? publican sidevof the House. The first two ex? cited the '^risibles" by reason of their brevity and sweeping endorsement of the general statements or the President, and the letter of Mr. Seward provoked merriment by reason of what tho members termed its Sewardisms, its diplomatic character, and here and there at tho commital phraseology. General Grant's final reply to the President was received this afternoon at tbe Executive mansion just aB the vii vate secretary was leav' mg for Congress with the President's rejoinder, In about an hour aiterwads the President sent to the House a copy of General G-ant's last letter. Upon a motioD of General Butler the Bouse, in committee of the whole, to-day struck out of the Executive Appropriation bill the allow? ance for certain secr?tenos ind clerks in the President's household. Under tho hw the Ex ecutive is allowed a private secretary, an as? sistant private secretary, phonographic writer, pardon clerk and three additional clerks. Even this force has not been found sufficient to per? form the heavy and accumulating work of the Exeontive office, and two military officers were detailed for additional help at tue White House, one of these, long ago, upon the sug? gestion of Mr. Stanton. The clerical labors imperatively required or the Executive give all the above assistants ample work, and the busi? ness is constantly on tho increase. It is given out that General George B. Mc? Clellan will oe nominated to i e Minister to Englaud. Whilst there is no official authoriza? tion for such an announcement, it may be said, nevertheless, that it has been known for some days that tbe President bad such nomination under consideration. CHANT S LAST LETTER. The following letter from General Grant, in reply to the President's last communication, was sent to the House of Representatives, on Tuesday, by the President : To tuc House of Representatives : The ac companying letter from General Grant,.receiv? ed since tho transmission to the H..use of Rep? resentatives of my communication of this date, is submitted to tho H ouse as a part of the cor? respondence referred to in the resolution of tho 10th instant. - ANDREW JOHNSON, Washington, D. C., February ll, 1868. HEADQRB. ABUT OF THE UNITED STATES, I WASHINGTON, D. C., February II, 1868. f Hi? Excellency A. Johnson, President of tho United States-Sir : I have the honor to ac? knowledge the receipt of your communication of tho loth instant, accompanied by the state? ments of five cabine: ministers of tneir recol? lection of what occurred in cabinet meeting on tho 14lh of Junuary. Without admitting anything in those where they differ from anything heretofore stated by mo I propose to notice only that porti >n of your communication wherein I am charged with insubordination. 1 think it will be plain to the reader of my lettor of tho SOth of Jan? uary that I did not propose to disobey any le? gal order of tho President" distinctly given, but only gave an interpretation bf what wo.TO be regarded aB satisfactory evidence of the Presi? dent's sanction to orders commuuicated by the Se retary ot War. I will say here that your letter ot the 10th instant contains tho first in? timation I have that you did not accept that interpretation. Now lor reasons for giving that interpreta Lion: It was dearth mn. !>??*???<? ..-ufu. - ' January SOth was written, that I, the perron having more public business to transact with tho Secretary ot War than any other of the President's subordinates, was the only one who had been instructed to disregara the authority of Mr. Stanton where his authority was denied as agent of tho President. On tho 27th of January I received a letter from the Secretary of War (copy herewith), directing mo to furnish escort to public treasure from tho Rio Grande to New Oneans, etc., at the request ol the Secretary of the Treasury to him. 1 also send two other enclosures show? ing recognition of Mr. Stanton us Secretary of War b> both the Secretary of tho Treasury and Postmaster-General, in all of which cases the Secretary (if War had to call upon me to mane the orders requested or give the information desired, and where his authority to do so is do rivod, in my view, as agent of the President. With an order so clearly ambiguous as that ot the President hero referred to, it was my duty to inform tho President of my interpreta? tion of it, and to abide by that interpretation tm (Tl I receivod other orders. Disclaiming any intention now o? heretofore of disobeying any legal order of tho President distinctly com? municated, 1 remain, very respectfully, your obedient servant, U. 8. GRANT, General. The letters accompanying are from the Post office Department, asking for information with respect to a chango of military posts, in order to thc protection of tho mails*. The next is a lettor from the Treasury Department, asking a military escort for the transitu bf public moue yb, to provont them from falling luto the bands of robbers. On the 27th of January Secretory Stanton writes a lotter, addressed to General Grant, asking him to detail a force to protect public moneys in Toxas. CHANTS MORTIFYING POSITION-HE COMPLAINS OF THE THICKERY OF THE RADICALS-SHER? MAN'S ADVICE TO THE PRESIDENT-ALABAMA TO BE RECONSTRUCTED IN SPITE OF HERSELF. The Washington correspondent of the Balti? more Gazette writes on the 11th inst.: An' ex-member of Congress from Illinois, who ?B now hero, and who hos been a friend and companion of Grant's from boyhood, bad a long interview with the General a few overlings since, and learned from bim that be blamos his pretended political friends for all his embor rassmeots. Ho said that bo bad endeavored to keep out of their mosheer but that they bad entrapped him before ho knew it, and bad involved hm in his present difficulties. If, said the Gene? ral, I can only manage lo get out of this scrape, I promiso they don't catch me again. During the recital of the manner in which ho bad been over-reached by politicians, tho General ex? hibited a deep reeling, and loft the impression on tho mind of bis friend that be would wipe his hands of Radicalism. As General Sherman's name has been brought into tho controversy between tne President and General Grant, it may not be amiss to state that tho President is in receipt of a letter from General Sherman, which is understood to have this paragraph in it: "If Stanton won't resign, and there is no othor way of getting rid of him, ulterior mea? sures should be resorted to." Thia lettor, together with ons other of a very important character, may reaob the public eye if this unfortunato controversy is pressed any further. Anew movo itt tho revolutionary plot has been determined on, which embraces tho ad? mission of Alabama and tho recognition of her representativos to Joucress, regardless of the voto heine, taken on the adoption of tho con? stitution. Tho Radicals now argue that the very largo voto castfor the constitution willjuatiiya repeal of so much of tho Reconstructions laws as requires a majority of tue registered vote to bo cast. This will be done, and the constitu? tion as formed will be recognized, and Alabama will bo represented in Congress in a few weeks. Thia has all been arranpou with certa n South? ern loyalists who aro now here, including a Governor whose name your correspondent ia not authorized lo give. THE PRESIDENT'S PLUCK-IEE OASE OF GENERAL HANCOCK. The same correspondent writes: A member of tho sub-committee appointed to investigate the charges against Presidtnt Johnson, with a view to preferring artioloa of impeachment, had a long conference with the President last evening, and ascertained fully his views. Mr. Johnson expressed an earnest desire that tho investigation should be thor? ough, and no pretext lef- bis enemies to sug? gest what thoy might have dono if they had pursued thc matter. When the thing ie done, he bega that it may bo well dono, and saya, while he baa no fears aa to the result, there S? ?f*t *hlcha?miRht be we" for the COUD try to know. The committee are epeciaUv W5"111 ?wcertainjnar it the President hal obstructed ^construction or violated the civirt office tenure law. On both of those points tho President; d?sires a full investigation; and in? timated that he would be able to lay before the committee some interesting documente ?KUld not, be misunderstood, and about which there could be no issue of veracity Up to the present writing tho President has not received any comunication irom General Hancock indicating a desire to bf relieved from the command of the fifth Militarv Dis? trict. It is not known what has resulted in the controversy bctwoen Grant and Hancock in which the latter intimates that ho will ask to be relieved unless tho former shall revoke the order as to tho New Orleans Council; but from the fact that Hancock has not asked to be re? lieved, it ls inferred that probably the differ? ence between Grant and .Hancock has been satisfactorily settled. The impeachment fever has abated wonder? fully, and tho general opinion now is that the matter will expire within the Reconstruction Committee, an.l that possibly no report on the subject will be made to the House.
