Tbt telerrath brise ui a report of aa inter view between tbe Presided and a nofcber ot delegates from Iht South, rpreinliag nina SttUi, which appears to have been moat frnk ani cordial on both s'.J Tbe Southern rspreWtat!tn expressed the'r fcearty alUshee to tbe Government Dot ot.ly, but the'r entire williDjjnei to adapt themselves to the there 1 caodi lion of public affairs. The sentiments eaanciated poa the occasion by the President, and we take them ae they coma through Re publican channels. Cb credit t bit teil tsl hit heart. He diu roved all enmity or personal ill will toward tbe 'TDpla aouvh of Mar on L Dixon's tint; expraased his anxiety for the cotspltte restoration ef tbe Seratbero State to tbe Union, ani Ms determi catioa to do all in hi wer to restore bapptntrs ani rroDeritv to their citiiens. and while be an for tbe Union of the States a ho re all things, hs waa at the aame tine a much opposed to tba consolidation or cectralixition of power a he bad been and was to secession. These view of lbs President will not suit the. radicals, who esrn to be actuated solely by a malignant hostility to the white people of tbe South. Mr Jom.sso lays be loves the Southern people. This eentitneot will tot meet with any sympathy fratn ScMsaa, Cuasr. Wiig li Co. They, an i laa'r followers, hate the Southern people, aol ViulJ reiaice to hear of their extermination O rabjugatioa by tbe cegro race. Tne Presi sienti willlag to consider the feud which placed te sections ia hostilo antagonism for the pit foar year, as settled to the rnutail satii faction of both, and that herefter we shall be oae people, toucd more firalj ihm ever together by the ynTaraft!e' bonds of l ore, respect nJ confidence; but ths radicals do not desire tbii happy termination of the uition'a trouble. Kor lota they would substitute undying hate; for respect they would anb-aitate contempt, ar.d for cooßdence they would st.Jjtitute di.trut and suspicion. This is the difTfience hetweeu President Jon nsojc and hi. äinceie we'! wisTiers.inl the JUlicals. The latter hare no frieo Jhip for him. Tbey have no sympatLy for him in Lis attempt to reitore the Uniou, "with rail tb edibity, equality ani rights of the sevrj.il States unimpaired."

We copy the following icpcilof the interview between the PreeiJeai and the Southern dele gate from the special Washington dispatcher to the Cincinnati Gxatte, aud commend it tj that consideration which in importance demands; J ' "A Inrje number of Southrruers, htrc tempo rarily, held meetir this mortiing.and resolved to call oa tbe PrcsMent, nd address him in be half of thennelre and thoir fellow-cuiaenj of tbe South.

Such force, if oraoiasd e proposed, i to be independent of J J the military authority now present, and superior in force o the United State forces now on 'duty in that State. To permit the young men who have ro distinguished themselves to be armed and organized independent of the United States military officers oa duty here, and to allow them to operate in counties low garrisoned by colored troops, filled, as many of these men are, not only with prejudice of those troops and against the execution of orders relative to freedmen, but even against our Government itself, would bring about a collision at once, and increase in a tenfold degree tbe difticultiea that now beset the people. 'It is therefore ordered; that district com minders give uotice at once to all persons with in their respective districts that no military organizations, except those under tbe control of the United States authorities, will bo permitted within their respective commands, and that if any attempt is made to organize after such notice, those engaged in it will be arrested.

The officer in command of such force will at once disarm every citizen within ten miles of the place where the offence waa com&iitted If any citizen, possessing information which would lead to the capture ot ths outlaws, rcfue to impart the earae, he will be arrested and held for trial.

" Rv order of Major General SLoeuu. J. Waerex Miller, Asst. Adjutant General Itut ler DIcKlaaeen Dix, Staratnn A: Co. The Mobile Kessler, edited by John Forsyth, referring to Butler's efforts to break Gen. Grant's amnesty to Gen. Le, and to his course in preventing the (xchanze of prisoners, goea on to say : We hive always believed that Gen. Butler was as deeply implicated in the responsibility of tho?e political blunders which immediately preceded and brought on the late war, as any other one man, with the exception, perhaps, of the late Mr. Yancey. Evry teseiou man in t'je uition saw iu tbe years 15'J and lSbO, that tbe Democratie party had become the solitary barrier to a section U outbreak and a violent disrup tion of the Union. Iu bearing and integrity was, therefore, a vital question of dousideration and solicitude to every man who loved his country and its peace. It is a curious fact while the writer of the?e lines, who has been under the ban of this Government aa a "rebel," was watiu his strength and energy to preserve the Democratie party, and through it the integrity of the Government, General Ilutler, who has gained much eclat by his "loyalty,' was taking the very steps that wera eure to lea l to the deduction of both We were both members of the National Democratic Convention, which met Rt Bilütno'e, over which General Caleb Cushinc presided, ani we shall never forget General Bailer's farewell speech to that holy, when he announced he waj about to "recede" from it auU p- to the Breckinridge standard, then tlyingover a Convention of the precipitation party ia the same city. He said in effdet that the Convention which he was about to depart from was not sound oa the question of Southern Rights then at issue, and that the territorial ecverrigBty heresies were offensive to his constitutional olfactories. He shook tbi dast from off his feet and went, and shortly aftr that Caleb Cashing followed into the camp of the immediate "bel'ore break fast" 6ceeionils. This atep, from two distinguished and lead.ri; Massachusetts Democrats, did more to give backbone to the movement to divide tbe Democratic party acd put an out-aud-out sectional candidate bf ira the people (hau anything tbat conld have happened It gave an odor of nationality to inavrment before that clearly cliquish and sectional. It ma the last feather that broke the camel's back. It was the sealing of tae election ol Mr. Lirrxln, and the prelude to diolct5on and sectional war. Great waa the consternation and eurpiUe cf tLoe Sjuth who witnessed ani who knew of General Butler course in that memorable politic! tru-iC-e. te fiai him booted and spurred, and sword in band, ta take part in tbe war tba; ensued. He had fairly endorsed the cause of the South ern quarrel, hounded tr.e iSoatu 0:1 to the brink of d.sruptioa, advued it, Curtiui like, to leap int t e gulf, an 1 comes out to shoot and bayonet and hAD tbe people who took bis advice and carried out the lo;ic of his own politics. We thought he mieht at lea?t have kept central in that fight. He was as fairly committed to the Southern side of the quarrel aa Daniel S. Dickinson of New York, who once declared in the United States Senate, that so profound were his convictions of thejut:ceof the Sooihern cause in its controversy with abolitionism that ahouU war ever be declared be would be bound to draw bis sword ou the aide of tbe outb.

But tbe 1 imes' remark about the surrender ol the Democratic party, even if it meant to be ironical, U perfectly silly. lithe candidates and putlorm adopted at Albany ire such as the Republicans approve, let them demonstrate their sincerity by voting for the ticket ! When tkey do this, it will be apparent which party bts furrcudcied. We are in a poeition to apply the test to the Times, without waiting for the action ot its pirty. Its endorsement of our platform ii a surrender, on it part, of Republican principles and practice, a? will readily appear if we consider each resolve in the tlatform iu fcucoe.-.-ion. Here in the first: . " Retolved, That the past history of the Democratic party is to be found in the proudest records of the country, and its creed in the Constitution; C(1 tht lX rea35 t0 mcct tfce PreAt questions of the future with the patrotim, fidelity to pr. uciple, and practical wisdom, that have charac tented Us lone and auspicious identification the history of the nation If pride in the past history of the Democratic party, conü 'ence iu its uniform patriotism, und belief in its practical wiadora. aro tokens of sur render and icnunciation, then, posihlv, the Convention at Albany surrendered, '('ho uext resolution is in these worJ: " Rffolvcd, That we congratulate the people of this Stale and of tbe Nation upon the terminatiou of civil war ar.d upon tbe return of peace, and especially that this b!c?ing is attained with a preserved Union, an undivided country, and the reassertion of constitutional liberty throughout tne laud." Pray, what principle, profession, or practice does the Democratic party renounce in declaring its joy at the end of the war and the preservation of the Uniou? When did it ever profess any thing inconsistent with such joy? Is the "reassertion of constitutional liberty" in this resolve aimed against tbe former principles of the Democrats ptrty, or, on the contrary, against the arbitrary practices of the late Republican admin inistration? If the Times join iu the condemns tion of such practices, it has surrendered, not we. The third resolve is as follows: ' Rcsolred, That, as the first fruits of this triumph, the people demand the subordination of military to civil rule, tbe restitution of the authority of the Courts, aad tho recognition of the equality of States; that we regard all efforts, either by prolonging military rule or by denying the right of representation to States, in crder to compel them to adopt negro equality or negro suffrage as an element of their Constitutions, as tending to delay ar.d prevent the pacification of the country, and to subvert the principles of the Government and endanger the liberties of the people." The blows dealt with suth tiip ha miner rapid ity in this resolution tire, one and all, blows against monstrous Republican abuses. The Democracy demand the discontinuance of these abuses, and the Times "caves in." If that journal is sincere, there is indeed a "surrender," but surely not ou the eide of the Democracy. The fourth: "Resolved, That in the plan of President Johnson for the speedy restoration of the States lately iu rebellion to their old positions in the Union, by commencing the work of reorcanizaticn at the point of secessioa, and confiding it to those then recognized as electors by the laws of the respective States, leaving the question of sudrage where the Constitution places it, to the future action of the several State?, we recognize enlightened statesmanship, sound political theory, and an old-fashioned, time honored regard for the relations and rights of the State and the Federal Government, as established by the Constitution; aud that we pledge to the President, in this great work, our cordial and energetic? ecpport." This indorses President Johnson, bu whnt does it indorse him for? For anything that the Democratic party has ever, if at any time, op posed? No; it supports him iu putting his heel upou and crushing the attempt of the Republi can party to degrade the States into territorial dependencies, and deprive thein of their constitutional right to say who shall be voters under their laws. If the Republican party indorses this resolution, there will be a complete surrender; and if the Times desires to know by whom, let it a:k Mr. Chae, or Mr. Sumner, or Mr. Greeley, or the framers of the Republican plat forms in Penrsvlvania and Minnesota. Fifth: "Resolved. That while we stigmatise aa alike fatal to national prosperity and ths righta of labor, the doctrine that 'a national debt is a national blessing we recognize the obligation by which the whole resources of the country are pledged to the payment of tbe public debt, and we believe the interests and honor of the people are involved iu its faithful fulfillment; aad that all constitutional and legal meius should be taken to compel the whole property of the country, rel and personal, to share in the public burdens, believing that Dot only equality of taxation, but also the soundest possible basis of public credit." The debt-detesting, debt-pa) ing policy here declared, his always been the policy of the Democratic party. S:xtn, seventh and eichth; "Resolved, That the thanks aud gratitude of tho reople are due to the soldiers and siilor of the Nation, ani to their brave commanders, who have illustrated the pages of our history with deeds of valor that elevate the fame of the peo ple and Yir.dirt.re the character of republican government "Resolved, That ue position originally taken by our Government in reference to the interference of K oropeaa powers with the pple ot this continent, called the 'Monroe Doctrine,' is a policy which has preserved pcaco and a voided foreign entanglements, st-J cannot be abandoned without dishonor to us as a power among nations, or without danger to Democratic institutions " Kfiolved, That the fuck aid generous aceertanceby the Southern people of the condition in wuivb tnev utve oeeu .ell oy tne recent war, including the abandonment ot i'avery, removes the main difficulties iu the way of tbe restoration of amicable feeling among tbe States; ani that it should be met on the patt of the Federal Gov ernmect in a pirit of conciliation and kindcrs " The Democratie party fights it out cn the same lime it has always pursued, in honoring our brave soldiers and their commanders, in staadiLg by the Monroe doctrine, and in commending the South lor their abacdonrxeat ef slavery. We have thus fxlowcd the resolutions through from beginning to end, and have found nothing approved whieh the Democratic party did not! always approTe; ncr aaytt.c repudiated wlucu it did Lot always condemn

It is noTwith ref

erence to the good cf tbe country, .except as a secondary carDosa' The Christian' seeks the ptaca cf the church Pix h'gher reatosa than any which are earthly. It is true that the general I subject of church unity bas two sides to be viewel from, and it is by no meaas certain that the division of the body of Christians into v&rioua "cbnrcbes," so called. Is not for tbe best interests of religion. We are by no mcani sere that there wasjjot a ytiy great. d;2rauce. in some respects between the church at Smyrna and the cburcb at Pergaraos, and the church at Antioch and the various churches in 'Aroostolic times. But we may well desire that churches should be reunited which have been divided, especially when the divisions have proceeded from human passions and errors. It would ceminly be better for the interests of the church and its peace if there were but one Methodb-t chnrcb extendice; through all the country, and but one Presbyterian, and but oae Episcopalian, and so on through the en tire list of church bodies. But there does not seem any prospect of ucb reunioo, and tbe question arues whether the members and managers of some of the churches at the North really desire it. and are seeking it at all. We have great doubts on tbe subject It seems, on tbe contrary, tm if the leaders in these Northern chutch"s are hankering after tbe same sort of victory which Grant won over .Lee. lney want a surrender of tho Southern churches. They in sist onon a formal capitulation. Now this is worse than nonsense, j t is a great and grar sin. We regret that it becomes necessary for a secular paper to administer the rebuke whirh the religious press ought to give to these church bodies. .1 he Princeton Review bas already ex pressed found views ou the subject, but tbe re ligious press has singularly enough failed to sea the evil eßect whieh is produced in tbe church by tbrs claim of .the Northern sectarians. In order that we may not be accused ot mis representation, we quote from the Evangelist a statement ot tbe requirements of the orthe:r Methodists. That paper avs: ".Nothing more was to be aked liou- Uieir Southern brethren as the condition of a cordial union than that they shtruld unequivocally declare their loyaltr to the General G jvoWiment and accept in good faith the fact that the servi tude of the colored race bad forever ceased V Thw would seem to be vety ea!y,; indeed, bot not so easy after nil wben we remember the hieb and commanding position which the Church of Christ ought to take. The test of membership of that Church is not a test of human politics Imagine the soul of a mau dying in Alabama receiving at tbe bar iu Heaven the reward of its deeds. 1 1 we understand the faith ot the church. Protestant er Catholic, Methodist or Presbyterian, there will be nofcuch question put to th soui of the Southerner as thi: "Do you unrqui vocally declare your loyally to the General Government of the United State.-?" If we h ive been correctly taught the doctrine of salvation by faith or works, or any other method of silvitioti as htl J by any Christian Church, Unitarian and Trinitarian, there will be no uch test applied at the gate cf heaven as this: "Do jou accept in good faith the fact that the servitude ot the colored mau has forever ceased?" What aro these men, Methodists or Presbyterians, or what not, who dare attempt to bind un earth what God baa not bound and will not bind In hcavcu? Is the Methodiit Church North so much holier than heaven itself, are its robe so much purer than the robes of those who walk iu white, are its feasts so much better than the fe.su! scenes at the Prince's own table, that they niaj mako rules for the exclusion of associates here which He will not make thert? These men are making a grave error. The truth Is, that none of us and nono of them not a man of them, from bishop to tho last convert at tho last meeting is fU to sit down at the table of the Church on High. If we should ua dertake to compare the fitness of Northern Christians with the fitness of Southern Christians to be church members, it would be found of both that the mercy of God alone could save them. No 1'harasaical eelf-righteousness would avail cither in tbe sight of a just judec Humility becomes both classes. It is just "possible that both may be saved. One class is quite as fit for church membership as the other. A comparison of Northern sins with Southern sins would show quite as much to be repented of by one race as by the other. And thit body which excludes from its terms of membership all political tests, and relies only oc the mercy of God for salvation, teachiug and preaching only the doctrine ef the Crucified, will be the church nearest like the church above. We admonish the Northern men who demand a surrender of the Southern church and form?l confession of sin and profession of future political good conduct, that they are exceeding the commission of their Master. And if they do not heed our warning, tbe day will como on them like a thief in the night, when they will 6tand before the Judge, among an assembly of the church called out of all nations and ages, which Judge and assembly will look ou the affairs ef the Americau Republic in this year lb6.ö, with no more interest, no closer regard than on the affairof men iu the days of Woah, or tbe lovalty of Esjptiaus to the first Ramesis. We beseech the Christian men of the North to ponder this subject. The relations of the church to our foclal and political life hire been sadly perveited. If men will only look to the unity of the church ; if they will eeek only for tests which will make it possible to be members of the same church with Noah, and Abraham, and Paul, and all the long line of patriarchs, saints and martyrs in all the ages ths church which is one on earth and in heaven to day they will see the folly, the 9in, of erecting thce political test? of church mcmbeisbip.

A few months ago, jti?t before dinner time, a hungry-looking man entered the refectory of Mr. Warner, atd propoumled the usual interrogatory "Is this the place where they keep clam soup?" "Yes, sir," s.tid Mr. Warner; "bow much will you hiveT" "Well," replied the customer,"'! gue?s I'll take three cents' worth." "Three cente worth:" exclaimed the astoiiished hot; "why, man-a live, where are you j going to put three ceuts' worth? You cer- I uir.lv wna'i pretend to eat that quantitv at one j time?"

Warnr, w .o felt in the humor for a joke, measured out a .W-r of clan roup, snd had it carried to the customer. He commenced devouricg it, and, after ?ereral temporary suspensions, in order to drive away tbe perspiration and breathe freer, be at length found the bottom of his eouo dish. Mr. W. inquired of the customer whether he didn't want more? He replied negatively, atd, on paying his nickel, inquired of Mr. Wainer. "How in the world do you manage to make soup so cheap?" "Wby," said Mr. Warner, "ia the priog, we buy about a bundrei clams, put them into a hogshead of water, and, by occasionally throwing in a few crackers and" sufficient pf??cr od salt, in a few weeks have the eoup ready for use. and keep it ue whJcyesr round. ..1- .1. ..., 1. w 1 a ata t IUI. you a.k fr tre receipt?"
