Suffrage should bo conferretl by the States, that right Seing guaran? teed to each State by thc Constitu? tion. Audrew Johnson is in favor of qualified suffrage in Tennessee as a citizen of that ?State. Ho authorized us. in behalf of the ellie* executive of tho nation, to urge qualified suf? frage for three classes of colored men of this District, in April last, und at his suggestion "we renewed the proposition again in duly, only about one week before Congress adjourned. We took special pains to notify seve? ral Radical Senators and Representa? tives who were anxious inquirers ou the subject, that thc President was in favor of the plan proposed in the Republican. Tho Radicals were afraid to touch the question, and went home to their several States and blackguarded the President, and de? clared that he was opposed to extend? ing the right of suffrage to the black mun. Andrew JohnsoTi is in favor of more for the black mun in Tennessee, as a citizen of that State ; he suggested to Governor Sharkey, of Mississippi, more for the colored men of that State, and requested and authorized us to urge upon Congress, at the last session, more for the colored men of this District, than Charles Sumner, or Henry Wilson, or any other Con? gressman of '.Massachusetts ever urged for the colored men of their State. Ko colored man who fought in thc Union army, or who owns pro? perty, no matter how much, can vote in Massachusetts, unless he eau read und write. President Johnson goes beyond that. He is in favor of grant? ing suffrage to ali colored men, .wherever the Constitution gives him the power to db it,-who can read and write, or who served honorably in the Union army, or who own proper? ty to the extent of two hundred and fifty dollars and upwards. >. Tlie only difference between thc President and Congress is, that the former believes that, tinder the Con? stitution, each State has the right to settle the question of suffrage for it? self. Congress assumes the right to impose it. upon the States, Constitu? tion or no Constitution. If Andrew Johnson had been rep? resented in the press, and upon the stump, in the late canvass, with the same zeal and ability by his professed friends, that has characterized the misrepresentations of his enemies, he would stand to-day the peerless among the most faithful in the lie public.-National Republican, (Ofi? cial Organ,) November 19. The New Orleans Picayune is in? formed "that official information has been transmitted from Washington to the Mexican Conbul in this city, that the whole power of the army and navy of the United States has been placed at the disposal of President Juarez for his restoration lo power.' Tiie same paper asserts that Juarez himself admitted as much to recent visitors at his residence in Chihuahua There ins a serious trouble again, in the English manufacturing dis tricts. The cotton mills of Lancan shire arc curtailing time, and what that means, as regards work ant' wages, the poor operatives will soot learn to their cost. Strikes, too, ar< looming up again, and altogether the look ont for the coming winter is nothing, if not blue. It is reported that prominent radi cals held a caucus in Philadelphia Ol the 20th, when articles of impeach ment against the-. President wen kdrawn up, and will bo submitted to ? Republican caucus of the members o Congress soou after the re-nssemblin| in Washington.
