R COMMENTS OP THE LONDON PRESS.
i The London Times says that the
Irish Government it of course better
[ informed than, any private persons
[ can be as to the state of tho country
; aud the imminence of the danger; but
[* in tho increased activity of the move
p ment during the past month, and the
j presence of numbers of persons in
, I various districts, with the scarcely
! j concealed purpose of promoting in
l j surrections, there is ample reasou for
, ] the strictest precautions. The object
, j of the Irish Government is doubtless
[ j to secure some of the emissaries of
I American Fenianism, who are now
, i numerous in Ireland aud working
[ j with disastrous effect on the people.
, j The measures of 1848 brought the
. i revolutionary movement to a crisis,
L j and the Times hopes that like pro
, i ceedings now will effect a similar
j objeci.

?I During Mr. Bingham's speech to
j day, ho sent to the Clerk's desk a
: ; copy of the Norfolk (Va.) Post, con
I faining an article, rejoicing in the
; wildest terms over the veto of the
Freedmen's Bureau bill as a greater
victory for the South than the first
battle of Bull Run. While it wa?
being read, several members who had
: learned thc; secret of thc thing, rushed
to Mr. Bingham to inform him of thc
trap into which he had fallen. As thc
Norfolk Post is a radical paper, was
started by General Butler's money,
and is now edited by a former mern
ber of his staff, the article was ironi
j cal in its tone. But notwithstanding
I Mr. Bingham was so informed by his
own friends, he insisted that it shouter
be put upon the journal and go before
the country as a true evidence o:
Southern feeling.

WASHINGTON, February 27.-1
President, last night, in response
the direct questions of several G
gressnieu, declared that be was op?
posed to all constitutional amend
until the Southern members
were in their seats, and so tho South
could have a voice in the matter. He
said the question of representation
! was a small matter, and that the North
could well afford to overlook the two
fifths advantage which the South now
had, because emigration and kindred
causes would soon remedy it without
legislation. If the matter must be
changed at all, he. was in favor of
making vo?i?g population the basis.
He then asked how they proposed to
get such an amendment through in
the South. The reply was: In the
same way, Mr. President, thnt^you
got the constitutional amendment
abolishing slavery through-by a lit?
tle Presidential pressure. Mr. John?
son replied that he saw no similarity
in the two cases. In regard to the
test oath, he said he was inclined to
think that the old form of swearing
to support the Constitution was ti
sufficient test of loyalty.

[2Tew York Times, 28?I.
I ending a rumor last summer of
difference in views with the Presider
of a member of his Cabinet, a pr?
sent Cabinet officer, who need n<
here be mentioned, wrote to a frient
the letter being now in the possessio
of a gentleman of this city, in sui
stance "that any officer under tl
Government who differed with tl:
President, in the least, in referent"
to his policy or opinions, upon vit
measures, owed it to himself to i'esic
at once, and would do so if he had au
sense of etiquette or possessed tl
attributes of a gentleman; more pa
ticularly was this course essential ai:
imperative in an officer whose relatif
was so close as that of a head of 01
of the Executive Departments of tl
Government. If his sense of shan
was so dull as not to prompt him
offer his resignation or withdraw, tl
President should not hesitate im m
diately to "kick' him out of the po;
tion which, under such circumstance
he so much disgraced."
This significant and important vie
entertained by one of the gentlem
in the Cabinet, who it is general
accredited differs radically with t
policy the President has been prom}
ed by motives of patriotism to ado
and pursue, should not have, in o
judgment, less force, orbe practica
ignored, because it affects bimse
We cannot believe it will when se

The New York Times makes t
following proposition to the radica
which we take to be President Joh
son's ultimatum:
"The exclusion of loyal men fr<
Congress, in violation alike of th
rights and of the Constitution, is t
main, if not the sole, cause of t
present difference of sentiment 1
tween them. If the Union major
in Congress had been in its acti
true to the principles of the Uni
party, and hud not allowed itself
be swerved from those principles
tho adroit and reckless machinatic
of men who have with them no sy
patby whatever, this conflict wot
never havo arisen. Whenever t
same majority eau throw off the
fl uences by which it h ns been tl
misled, and come back to its origi
aud true position, that conflict i
end, and all the dangers which n
seem to be impending over the Un
party and the country will be 1
ever 'in the deep bosom of thc oci

ANCIENT AND MODERN JACOBINS.
The Courier des Etats Unis considers
the rage for Constitutional amend?
ments not an "intermittent," but a
"continued fever," which has be?
come epidemic in Congress. The
amendment proposed by an Iowa
member, that "the United States re- !
cognize the existence of God and the
divinity of Christ," it thinks is "evi?
dently needed; but while the first
part of the proposition would be un?
objectionable to the American people,
the second might raise more diffi?
culties. The Israelites, for instance,
who are citizens, could not well ratify
it. What would then become of the
freedom of worship and of believing
or of not believing? The Unitarians,
who comprise a large proportion of
Sumner's constituency, are in the |
same category. The Courier adds: j
"Tiie French Convention commit
I ted an act of maduess {folie) in de- |
i creeing tho worship of the Goddess j
: of Reason or the recognition of the j
j Supreme Being; Mr. Grimes bascom- i
? mitted merely an act of silliness
I {niaiserie.) These are* nearly all the !
I points of difference wo find between I
j the Jacobins of France and tho mo- I
dem Jacobins of the United States."
IMPORTANT JUDICIAL- DECISION.- ?
I Judge A. W. Graham, of the Warren
! Circuit Court, in a case that came be
? fore him during the present term of
said Coilrr, made the following deci
j sion: That the late amendment to the
! Constitution of the United States is
now binding in the States, and must
: be so regarded by the State courts;
and, secondly, that a slave charged
with a crime, having been committed
previous to the amendment, the pe
! nalty to which was a given number of
stripes, bi ing convicted of said offence
after thc adoption of the amendment,
is acquitted-there being no slaves,
and the penalty attached to such
offence cannot be inflicted. In the
above decision, Judge Graham said
that he had no hesitancy in coming
to tho conclusion that it was his duty
to vote, as he did do, against tho
amendment referred to.
