Y.) Union, in I conanienting upon the contemptible conduct of Gen. Griffin in refusing to permit the obsequies of tito hi-1 ruentcd Gen. Albert Sidney John- | ston, in Galveston, gives tlc follow- j ing tributo to his worth: "Sidney Jolinston was ?i great sol? dier-probably tin; ablest tn the old anny tit the time Ibo rebellion broke out. He was a Kentuckian, but he hud endeared himself to the Texans by resigning his commission in the United States service, ia 1834, and entering that of the Republic-hav? ing been the Adjutant-General and thc senior Brigadier-General of its army, subsequently its Secretary of War, then, before returning to the regular anny, thc colonel of its first regiment raised for our war against Mexico, and lastly, its champion in thc attempt at secession. The peo? ple of thc South had the same regard for him Unit they now have for till their public men who led them in support of tlie cause for which he died. They will always entertain that feeling, and their children after them for generations will have it im? bued in them. Individual treason, which proceed i from a base motive, can be made odious; but the collec? tive treason of compact millions, oc? cupy g ti vast section of country, ; with all thc elements of empire in ! and about them, and who simply! -eek tu assert tho theory of self government for themselves to be I fourni in tin' Confederate Constitu? tion, leaving other similarly situated people .to govern themselves in their own way. can never be made odious never. Those involved in it will make il respectable in spite of till human power. The spreading mil? lions of Southern offspring will never ? admit that their lathers did aught that should bring the blush to their check. The li?mes id' the prominent actors in the rel? ?lion will always be glorified by them, and the cause that is lost will ever be held in their esti? mation as one worthy of tho highest exertions and greatest sacrifices of a free and enlightened people. We arc not accounting for or justifying facts, but simply stating them that they may be recognized, and that, in view ol' them, thoughtful men may ask themselves whether it is the part of wisdom to be making the futile attempt to eradicate' from the hearts oi lin; Southern people what luis com?.: to be a part of their very na? ture, tis the Cen. Griffins io the army and in civil stations tire doing. Such attempts serve to drive in rather than drive out the objectionable sen? timent, and to perpetuate a feud that will malic us forever two . peoples. The South fought for a theory of government. We did nothing more. They were beaten--wc triumphed. They stand 'convinced against their will,' and ?il! tue laws that can be de? vised by the ingenuity ol' mau can exact nothing more from them than the submission they now yield. Kindness, conciliation, and respect for their manhood, can alone change thc Southern heart anti direct it" af? fection towards a union which now has only thc assent of its cold judg? ment based upon the circumstance ol' necessity."' -.-?.?-* THE GKEAT REFORMER. The fol? lowing is a sample of Mr. Bright's /allder style- lt appears in a h iter to ti Mr. Garth, ti member of thc Eng? lish Parliament and a gentleman of high repute: "On a review of your speech ?md your letter, 1 caine to this conclusion : that you wished to get into Parlia? ment, and were not particular ns to thc path which might lead to it, You threw dirt during your canvass, doubtless knowing that, if needful, you could eat it afterwards. There are many men who go 'through dirt to dignities,' and I suspect you have no objection to bc one of them. I am, with whatever respect is due to you, yours, Ac, "JOHN BRIGHT." I THE FINALITY.-Weelo hope (hui i the fallowing despatch to the BaltL [more- *7aze?te irulicates the'finality '>f i our sectional difficulties: I am authorized to say that a propo? sition will bc shorily made, in form, by the Legislature <>i' North Carolina and submitted b> Congress, offering as a finality the adoption of the Con? stitutional amendment, with the sub? stitution fur the second and third sections provisions guaranteeing im? partial suffrage ?ind representation according to thc voting population. I need not add that the proposi? tion, in my judgment, will bo re? jected liv the radicals, the purpose of thc lenders ol' that party being t<> protract, indefinitely, any settlement. The signs of tho tiie.es unmistakably point lo fur more stringent measures than any yet proposed, and the means to beemphiyed ?ive bolder I infinitely more reckless than thc pp > lie seem willing to believe. "Many members of Congress who have lind*, uii to within tho past week, hopes of a final adjustment upon some satis r.,,.f^,.-,- 1,.,..;.-. ... .. it ?niciory uas's, .....> iiituisguiaOui^ ex? press themselves without hope, and admit that their calculations, based upon the ultimate resistance of that class of Iii publicans who.se? votes have, on some occasions, been cast against ultra measures, have turned out tobe utterly fallacious. No hotter proof of this eau bc furnished than the votes in the House upon au amendment to thc 'Tenurc-of-ofiie e" bill yesterday. It prohibits the Pre? sident from removinga Cabinet officer without the consent, of the Senate. It was. at first, substantially defeated, but thc party lash was applied, and. upon a reconsideration, it was adopt? ed, and the bill, with it incorporated as a provision, passed by a strict party vote. It will go to the Senate, bc feebly opposed by the more mo? derate Republicans, who will finally yield, and, -by the time it comes back with the President's objections, thc party will have become a unit, and thc bill become a law by the vote oj two-thirds of both Houses. Under existing circumstances, this bill is of vital consequence. No mai doubts that* thc purpose of making the Cabinet independent is tb tic thc hands of the President iu view o his ejection from tin? position he oe cupios. In truth, thc whole legisla tion of this Congress has been but ; piece ol net-work with which to en viron tin- Executive preparatory C. tho niter demolition of his authority and placing in his stead a '"Lore Protector" already selected. The re straiuts o?' the. Constitution arc utter ly contemned even by such pretcndei conservatives as Raymond, and tba instrument held to have been, ii fact, abolished by the results of tin war. He who imagines, therefore that the fundamental law present the' slightest barrier to the destruct ive course marked out, by the r?volu tionish*, indulges in a delusion whic is directly at variance with ever word and every act of the dominai party. !t is a fact which cannot bete soon fully understood by the pooph and duly pondered upon, timi, Ai drew Johnson is at this moment upo his. trial; that the witnesses, such : detective Raker, are upon the stain that his ease has been prejudge* and that he is liable, at any mamen to bu dragged to the bar of tl House and deposed.

FlNAKCIATj MEASURES IK CONORESS. ; We may judge, from the general tone ; of the commercial press, that some , changes iu regard to laws relative to ; the currency and banking organiza- | : tiens by the present Congress are! expected.
