Radicalism Upon the Wane.
Five long months have dragged on
since the initiation of tho war of the
radical conspirators against the Pre?
sident. Though the organ of the
Btar-chamber cabal declared long since
tliat "the organization which elected
Lincoln and Johnson was in hearty
accord with the proclaimed opinions
of the latter, and every Union Go?
vernor in the republic had formally
tendered his support to the head of
the Administration ; and in thc prima?
ry meetings ot the Union party, tho
.warmest demonstrations of attach?
ment to his policy had been made,"
yet, from the inception of Mr. Col
. fax's mischievous speech down to the
present time, every act, every mea?
sure, every intrigue, every force pos?
sible, have been incessantly urged by
Congress in an intensa and ferocious
warfare to crush the President. When
the large number of confiding and
inexperienced Republicans who nt
first doubted and distrusted Thad?
deus Stevens and his destructive
policy, were finally coaxed, or flat?
tered, or intimidated iuto sustaining
it, then commenced a united and
systematic movement to proselyte
with all Republicans in position and
of prominence throughout thc coun?
try. The latter were allured by the
pleasing prospect of the South at
their feet, more replete with resources
for plunder than was described of
Italy by Buonaparte to his conquer?
ing veterans, when, after surmount?
ing the Alps, that classic land laid in
smiling beauty and in unequaled fer?
tility before them. "Was this plun?
dering inducement of Mr. Stevens,
like that of a sardonic character of
old, who promised all the kingdoms
of the earth to Him who taught to
love an enemy, to be lost sight of,
much more not clutched and hugged
to the bosoms of mercenary politi?
cians? If the repor some time
siuce in the Republican presses were
true, that an Assistant Secretary of
tho Treasury, aided by especially
keen detective agents, had discovered
that the Government had been de?
frauded, in cotton aud other transac?
tions, of 8100,000,000 by venal Trea?
sury Agents, anny officers and officials
of the Freedmen's Bureau, is it to be
supposed that among such vi carions
patriots and those "new swarms" of
like kidney that have since descended
upon a conquered and unarmed peo?
ple, there will be lack of forthcoming
testimony to prove that that people
aro more disloyal than at any time
since the beginning of the war? Will
not these spoliators of the Govern?
ment and the Southern people be
sure to find that the negro is subject?
ed to an intolerable oppression?
Where there are such most excellent
rr- aud lunch approved persons, can the
star-chamber cabul fail of testimony
to convict the public mind of the in?
durated disloyalty and atrocious
cruelty of the Southern people.
But to recur to the management of
Congressmen to make tho Republican
party a unit against the President.
Having successfully procured tho ad?
hesion of the mercenary, corrupt and
designing, they commenced by
speeches to fire the hearts of the
masses. Systematic correspondence
was entered into, by which Gover?
nors of States and State Legislatures
were induced to co-operate with Con?
gress, and exercise their influence in
au inferior sphere upon lesser lights
ni partisanship. The machinery of
office-holders in Executive Depart?
ments, at custom houses, in post
offices, on mail routes, throughout
tho web and woof of the jurisdiction
of tax officials, in military quarters xs
much as possible, and in circles of
contractors and expectants of con?
tracts and offices-one and all of
theso powerful agencies were made
instruments to agitate, influence and
inflame the public mind to the fever
point against the President and in
behalf of Congress.
But notwithstanding tho use of all
this machinery to menace, to corrupt,
or to deceivo the electors, they have
everywhere relucted from the usurp
in g measures of the reckless tyrant of
Congress, and shown to the world
that "Andrew Johnson sits on high
in all the people's hearts. "
The last that was heard, officially,
from the star-chamber cabal concern?
ing restoration was vouchsafed, some
six weeks since, through a report
upon the case of Tennessee, which,
it was then stated, was so manipu?
lated, at the instance of Mr. Conk
ling, as to make it a hollow and in?
sulting mockery to that people. It
was BO, because it contained views
purposely lugged in to challenge a
veto, and because the conditions were
framed so as to give an excuse for a
radical Congress to deny that the
conditions to restoration had been
complied with. But we now hear, in
Republican quarters, that a change
has corni, over the dreams of the dis
u monists, even in the inner temple of
the star-chamber. They are dissen?
tient, l>elligerent. Outside, their for?
mer tame and servile followers have
declared their independence like men.
It is stated that many of the State
delegations have constituted them?
selves sub-committees on reconstruc?
tion as to what course such delega?
tions shall take, irrespective, we take
it, of the dictation of Mr. Thaddeus
Stevens; that certain Western asso?
ciates of Mr. Colfax himself, who has
done such conspicuous mischief, will
not stand the proposition to force
negro suffrage upon States; that the
Newf York delegation are for an
affirmative restoration policy, and
that Tennessee must be immediately
admitted to the Union.
All this change has been effected,
says a Republican correspondent of
the New York Times, by the "near
approach of the summer aud full
elections, anti the prospects of mem?
bers to be returned to tho next Con?
gress."
How fur these revelations of Re?
publicans are true we know not, but
in the name of the people, who, at
the late elections, have spoken in
such thunder-tones to Congressmen,
we can say to them that no trifling
measures, no partial legislation, in
the way of mockery, delusion, or
error, will now satisfy the people, or
ingratiate their favor, or restore their
confidence. Congress must coma u}>
to the full measures <>f the President's
policy, in its exalted, ennobling and hu?
manizing spirit. The civilized world,
that has its eyes attentively upon us,
invokes to pacification and union.
Every element that calls for the exer?
cise of head-work, healt-work, or
hand-work, imperatively demands
the restoration of States.
[ National Intelligencer, loth.
There is a strong probability of
"Rummer butler" being white-wash?
ed into a state of moderate respecta?
bility. During the past fortnight his
prospects have brightened very ma?
terially, lu the first place, two
valiant bank officials rushed into
print to vindicate Butler from all
suspicion of having pocketed the
funds of a savings bank, lu tho
second place, the counsel for a New
Orleans broker, named Smith, from
whom Butler took $50,000 iu gold,
gave him a certificate last week that
the seizure v as properly made, and
the certificate so delighted B. F. that
he straightway paid over the 850,000
to Smith's attorney. The certificate
was well worth the money, and so
emboldened Butler that he at once
swore that tho great rebellion had
bankrupted him.
After the skillful whitewashing of
Cataline hy Louis Napoleon in his
life of Ctesar, the elaborate defence
of Nero anil Caligula by Thomas I)e
Qnineey, and the complete vindi?
cation of Judas Iscariot by a German
philosopher, we think there is a
strong probability of somebody's
making, ono of these days, a "whiled
sepulchre" at least of Butler's reputa?
tion.-Richmond Times.
IMMIGRATION.-It appears from a
statement in thc March report of tho
Commissioner of Agriculture, that
the number of immigrants that ar?
rived at the port of New York during
the year 1865, was 200,031.
A New Orleans letter says that Hon.
J. P. Benjamin, has already taken
rank as "a good, first class lawyer" in
England; and that he will settle there
permanently.
