THE G?N?RAL COUNCIL OF THE ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH.-The Geu'oral Council which" has just been convoked by the Pope to meet at the Vatican, in Rome, on December 8, 1869, the'festival of the Immaculate Conception, is the first that has been called since the Council of Trent, which assembled at that city on December 13, 1815, and continued in session, with various interruptions, till December 1, 1863, a period of eighteen years. The General Coun? cils, called also oecumenical, from a Creek word meaning the habitable earth, aro summoned by tho Pope, and, in the language of the paper just issued, aro composed of all the cardinals, patriarchs, primates, arch? bishop and bishops of the city (Rome) and of the world, and are designed to"'adjudge nil questions of schism and heresy, belief and disci? pline, which affect tho Universal Church.' The Popo in person, or by legates, presides over the Council, and all questions are decided by a majority of the votes cast; though at the Council ot Constance, is 1114, the members from each of the fivo nations, Italy, France, Germany and England, voted separately. General Councils do not create now dogmas, but only interpret and declare what was originally contained in the Scriptures and tradition, and accord? ing to the belief of the Roman Catho? lic Church, are infallible concerning matters of faith. This infallibility docs not extend to points of disci? pline, history, politics or science, nor to the grounds of their decision, nor to collateral observations. Tho Church of Rome only recognizes nineteen general Councils. The Con? ference of Prelates, held at Rome in 1854, and which proclaimed tho dogma of the Immaculata Concep? tion, wu8 not a Council, but only u solemn ceremonial declaration of be? lief by moro than 300 bishops, 628 highdignitaries of the church having written letters to tho Popo testifying their approval.

Democratic Rejoicings In New York, Shortly* af ter'the nominatioi r??? made for tho Presidency an' Vice-J Presidency by the Convehtior pos? ters wcro issued announcing that ? ratification meeting of Seymour and Blair would bo hold in front of the Glob Boom of the Domocrntio Asso? ciation, at Union Square, in the even? ing, which would bo addressed by Gon. Wade Hampton and otho* dis? tinguished Southern delegates. At 8 o'clock, a very large assemblage was gathered in front of the building, which was illuminated with paper lamps. Gen. Wade Hampton having ar? rived, came out upon the balcony and was loudly applauded. Ho spoke as follows: FELLOW-CITIZENS OE NEW YOKE: I am violating a rule that I imposed ou myself, when I came on hore, in ad? dressing you; in speaking at all; but that I do violate it is due solely to the people of Now York, who have met us of tho South with such kindness aud such cordiality. [At this junc? ture some of the paper lamps caught fire and efforts were made to extin? guish them. I Gen. Hampton, (con? tinuing,) I do not like to have a fire in my rear. Gentlemen, I came, then, solely that I might thank you for the courtesy that you have ex? tended to us and to all tho Southern States, and that I mjght explain to you why it was that we were hore and what good wo hope may bo effected by our presence. It wns determined by us when wo came on, that we would take no part in this Conven? tion-no prominent part-not be? cause we felt that wo were not the equals of any other delegates, but solely because wo were afraid that wt of tho South-cut off as we have been for the last few years from the political world-if wo should indicutc our preferences wo might accidentally select men who would bring defeat upon the great Democratic party We determined, then, that we would let the Democracy of tho Uuitec States, in Convention assembled, in dicate who was to bo their standard hearer, and then that we would corni up in solid phalanx and pledge ou firm support to the nominations Acting upon that, we cast our vot for President of the United Statee Andrew Johnson, who had stood be tween us and min. We wished t< show him that we appreciated tba kindness, and to pay bim the com pliment that was due to him. It wa then, seemingly, the wish of the De mocracy to take tho great youn statesman of Ohio, (and when thc appeared to be the case, South Curr linn tendered him her -support. Thc that distinguished soldier, that sou ( Pennsylvania, whom I have met o manj a bloody field-(applause)-an who, I take pleasure in saying, wt one of the most gallant of your so diers. Gen. Hancock-(loudcheors) when his namo was presented, we toe him up aud wo voted steadily to tl last for him. And when tho nnmo i Horatio Seymour, of New York applause)-was presented, and Sta aftor State rolled on to swell tl grand acclaim, our little State can next to your own and declared th he was their choice, emphatically ai fully. These, gentlemen, were tl reasons which induced us to take tl course wo did; and, if wo have bei mistaken, I am uuro of ono thing, least, that you will bolieve we ha boen inspired but by one single m tive, and that was to promote the si cess of. the Democratic party, has been the earnest desiro of t South, since the war closed, to jc with the Democratic party, and want you all to know that if we h been willing to go to the radi? party, we could have mode any ter that we choose; but wo determin to take defeat with tho Democrs rather than by sacrificing our prin pies to gain success with the radier We believed that if wo wero truo those principles, if wo were true ourselves, that God would uot f sake us, and that those great prit pies of American liberty, thc gr underlying principles of the Der eratic party, would triumph, s that wo would at last bo free and livered from tho ruin which has bi impending over US. And now, g tlemen, you of the North do know, you cannot conceive, tho c ditiou of the Southern States, voice, "My God, I can!") I am g that you can. But I will only si a few facts, for it is a theme iq which I darr not trust myself speak. In tho Legislature of So Carolina, composed of 150 memb from whose halls used to go as h intellect as ever carno to the hall Congress, of those 150 members tl aro nearly, if not quite, now negroes. (Hisses and cries "shame.") Tho whole of the ti that thoso negroes have paid does amount to S/00. (Laughter.) that, about $500 has been paid by or two conservativo members, ail' tho $200 that is paid by tho neg: and "carpet-baggers," half of i under execution. Well, that Le lature, composed in that way, has right to levy a tax on South Caro to the amount of $2,225,000. N gentlemen, if that state of th; goes on, what will bo the res You know it, yourselves, that i few years from this time thoro not be a white mon, woman or c in South Carolina. I only men that as 'one of the Southern Sh ? _ it is. truo it is, perhaps,' in a worse condition than most of the others; "hut they are all afflicted by tbe.fear ful calamity that is hanging over us, and we can have no relief unless tho great Democratic party will come out and pledge itself that We shall have a fair election, that the white people of thc South shall vote; and I want you all to register an oath that when they do vote, that those votes shall, be .connted, and if there is a majority of vhite votes', that you will place Seymour and Blair in the White House, in spite of all the bayonets that can bo brought against them. (Cheers.) I only want to soe the election fair. Let them do that, and even with that incubus of black rule we can carry the Southern States. Gentlemen, as I said, I do not like to touch upou these themes. (Voices, "Go on; let them oome.") I only proposed to come here to make my acknowledgments to you. I came to tell you thal this nomination which you bavo made will.meet the hearty concurrence of tho Southern men, (applause,) and I wanted to tell you bow gratified we have been at the reception you have given us. I wanted to tell you that though wo fought in good faith, we laid down our arms iu good faith. I wanted you to believe that we were men ol honor; that whoa we said "war" we meant war, and when we said "peace" we meant peoco, but not that peace which thc radicals are giving us; not that pence which crushes to tho earth ten of theso States; not that peace which places ignorant negroes ovei us; but peace in all our households, peace through all our land-thal peace which tho great Democratic party has sworn to-day in Tammany Hall that we shall have.. (A voioe "And you will have it. "j Iappoal tc you by that sworn oath; I appeal tc you in the name of race, by all tin common traditions of the post, In the time when South Carolina sou ber soldiers to fight here and at Bos ton, by the memories of the Bevolu tion, by all the past abd by ever hope of the future, to stand togethe to give us deliverance and to giv success to thoso nominees whom yoi have placed as your standard-bearer to-day. Now, gentlemen, in th name of tho Southern States, in th name of South Carolina, in my ow: name, I thank you for all the courte aies you have extended to us since w have been here; I thank you for thi reception, and I assure you that shall take back to my people nothin but the most grateful memories of a your kindness. Gov. Perry, of South Carolint next addressed the assemblage, refe: ring to tho action of tho Democrnti Convention, which had nominated i President and vice-President Horati Seymour and General Blair. Tl nominations would be confirmed t every State in the South, and he wt satisfied that in November next Se; mour would prove the successfi standard-bearer of the Democrat party. The speaker proceeded animadvert on the conduct of Gel Grant in connection with the e change of prisoners. From Ge Grant's record on this point 1 thought there was nothing in th record to recommend him to the st frage of thc people. He pledg< South Carolina and North CarolL to give their votes for Horatio Se mour as President and for Ge Blair as Vice-President. He h every reliance on the Democracy the North, North-west, and of t East, to rally to tho support of thc candidates; and with a long pull, strong pull and a pull altogethi there was no doubt but success November next would alight on t Democratic banner. (Cheers.) Other addresses were delivered prominent speakers. ?????> The recent Democratic Convc tion was tho tenth national conv< tion of tho Democratic party. 1 fivo Presidents before 1821 w< nominated by congressional oancn at Washington. In that year, 1 caucus nominee, William H. Cn ford, bad to contend with three in pendent candidates, Adams, Jacki and Clay, who succeeded in carryi the election into tho House, wh Mr. Adams was elected. In 18 Adams and Jackson were nomina by conventions of their respect parties in tho several States, ii .hickson was successful. Tho fl national convention was held 1S32, at which Andrew Jackson ^ re-nominated by acclamation, the eight subsecpient Democn conventions, tho candidates of o four wero elected, viz: Van Baron 1836, Polk iu 1844, Pierce in 1 and Buchanan in 185G. The Statistical Beport for Gi Britain shows tho remarkable 1 that England has four times as mi paupers, or persons receiving pul relief, as Ireland. The number tho former during the last year, o ing January 1, 1808, was ovc million, (in round numbers;) 1 in Ireland for tho samo time 73,000. Tho population of Engl is about 22,000,000; that of Irel less than 0,000,000. Tho Irish j plo, just now, are not so very ht off. They have general employa and fair wages. But they bavo ceived an impulse of emigra which makes them discontented \ Ireland as it is, and will keep tl so for a good while. Ill' j j * I ! . __ THE DEMOCRATIC TICKET.

In demanding these measures and r forms, wo arraign the radical party for i disregard of right, anti tho nnparalleh oppression and tyranny which havo mar od its career. After "tho most solemn ai unanimous pledge of both Houses of Co grasa to prosecuto tho war exclusively f tho maintenance of tho Government at tho preservation of tho Union, under tl Constitution, it has repeatedly viol?t that most sacred pledge, under whi alone was rallied that, noblo volunte anny, which carried our flag to victory. instead of restoring tho Union, it hs so far as is in its power, dissolved it. ai subjected ten States, in times of profoui peaeo, to military despotism and neg supremacy. It has nullified there the right of tr byjurv; it has abolished tho habeas Ci ?nts, that most sawed writ of liberty; has overthrown tho freedom of spooch a tho press; it has substituted arbitra seizures and arrests, and military tri: and Beeret star-chamber inquisitions i tho constitutional tribunals; it has dis garded, in time of peace, tho right of t people to be free from searches and se uro-?; it hus entered tho post andtehgra offices, and even tho private rooms of dividuals, and seized their private papi and letters, without any specific charge notice of affidavit, aa required bj' the ganie law; il has converted the Amcric capitol into a bastile; it lins established Bystoni <>f spi-'s and official espionage which no constitutional monarchy of l rope would now darn to resort; it has a lished tho right of appeal on Importl constitutional questions to tho supre judicial tribunals, and threatens tri c tail or destroy its original jurisdieti which is irrevocably vested hy tho Com tution, while tho learned Chief Just has been subjected to tho most atroeu calumnies, morely because ho would prostitute his high oftico to tho support the falso and part izan charges prefer against the President.

When grants of the public lands may bc allowed, necessary for tho encouragement of important public improvements, the proceeds of the salo of such lauds, and not the lands themselves, should bo so ap? plied.
