The Passnge of the Military Reconstruc
tion Hill by the Senate.
Thb sossion of the Senate which commenced
On Saturday was prolonged until half-pant six
o'clock yesterday morning, when Mr. Stevens'
Lill for tho more efficient government of the
Eebol States, after having been amended in
several particulars, was passed by a vote of 29
to 10.
The bill, as it finally passed the Senate, com
bines the features of both the Stevens and
Jiliot bills that had previously passed tho
House. Tho chief amendments made by tho
Senate are, first, to give the President the ap
pointment of the commanders for the several
military districts provided by tho bill, instead
of bestowing tho selection upon the General of
the army; secondly, to strke out the section
which prohibited United States courts from
issuing writs of habeas corpus on petition of
any one arrested in the Rebel States; and,
thirdly, the addition of the following section,
which is a modification of the Blaine amend
ment: "Seetion 5. That when the people of any one of
the Haul Rebel (stales shall have formed a con
stitution for their government in conformity
with the Constitution of the United States in
all respects, framed by a convention of dele
gates elected by the male citizens of said State
twenty-one years old and upwards, of what
ever race, color or previous condition, who have
been resident In said State for one year previ
ous to the day of such election, except such as
may be disfranchised tor participation in the
rebellion or for felony at common law; and
when such constitution shall provide that the
elective franchise shall be enjoyed by all such
persons as have the qualifications herein stated
for electors of delegates, and when such consti
tution shall be ratified by a majority of the per
sons voting on the question of ratification who
are qualified as electors for delegates, and when
such constitution shall have been submitted to
Congress for examination and approval, and
Congress shall have approved the same, and
when said (State, by a vote of its Legislature,
elected under said constitution, shall have
adopted the amendment to the Constitution of
the United States Jproposed by tbaThirty-ulnth
Congress, and known as article 14, and when
said article shall have become a part of the
Constitution of the United States, said State
shall be declared entitled to representation In
Congress, and Senators and Representatives
shall be admitted therefrom on their taking the
oath prescribed by law, and then and thereafter
the preceding sections of this act shall be in
operative in said State."
The bill will be taken up in the House
to-day. Its fate there is somewhat doubtful,
as there is much opposition among the Re
publicans to the fifth section. Still, as the
bill as it finally passed the Senate is accept
able to the active Republican strength in that
body, we presume it will be adopted by the
House, especially as any disagreement be
tween the two bodies now would throw tho
whole matter over to the next Congress.
The Speech of the Emperor.
The address of Louis Napoleon in opening the
French Chambers treats of European and
American affairs with a vagueness truly de
lightful. If the science of diplomacy consists
in non-committalism, and if "words were in
vented,"Jas Talleyrand tells us, "to conceal, not
to convey ideas," the speech is the best of dip
lomatic and rhetorical documents. In regard
to foreign topics, we can see, "as through a
glass darkly," what the Emperor intends to
state, but when we reach Mexico and the
United States, the Cretan labyrinth is soluble
compared with the sentences as telegraphed
by the agent of the Associated Press. Talk
about the dubious meaning of the Sybil
line books, these paragraphs far surpass them;
for while the Sybil only gave sentences that
could be understood either affirmatively or nega
'tively, the Associated Press gives a despatch
which makes about as much sense if read
backward or forward:
"In another part of the lalobe we have been
Obliged to employ force to redress legitimate
grievances. The happy results at first obtained
were compromised by an inauspicious concur
rence of circmonstances. The guiding idea of
the Mexican expedition was an elevated one
to regenerate a people, and implant among
tbem tbe Ideas of order and progress; to open
Tast outlets to our commerce, and leave the
recognition of services rendered to civilization
to mark our path. Such was my desire and
yours; but as soon as tbe extent of our sacrifices
appeared tome to exceed the interests whiuii
had called us across the oceau, I spontaneously
determined upon the recall of our army corps,
that the Government of the United States
might comprehend that want of conciliation
liad embittered relations which, for the welfare
of both countries, should remain friendly."
b The legitimate meaning of the despatch is
that the relations between France and the
United States are not friendly. But we cannot
think that such was the sentiment of the
address, for it is only a few weeks since we
had the assurance of the French Minister that
the feelings between the two Governments
Were of the most amicable charac ter. The In.
auspicious concurrence of circumstances" re
ferred to is a neat name for the success of the
North and the continued unity of the American
republic It is very probable that the address
as delivered was clear anil satisfactory, but
certain it is that, as it comes to us, we must
view it either as having no bearing, or else as
declaring that the present fueling between the
United States and the Empire is anything but
friendly a condition of circumstances directly
Opposed to the truth. The rest of the address
avors the maintenance of Austria and the com
pulsory subjugation of Crete, on condition that
the Porte will guarantee to its Christian sub
jects their rights and religious U-lief.
Tub Arrival ok Suhkatt. The United
States gunboat Swatara, with the assassin
Surratt on board, has arrived on our coast.
The pursuit and capture of this criminal are
something extraordinary. We trust he may
be iuducod to make a clean breast of it, and
tell all that he knows concerning the assassi-
The Congressional Temperance Society.
Tub formation of a Congressional Temperance
Society is a good step in the right direction.
There is, probably, some of our readors who
do not recognize drunkenness as a vice j but
what in a private individual is a wrong, an
injury to himself, and an insult to sooiety, In
a publio servant is a heinous crimo, a cruel
and unjustifiable betrayal of publio confidence,
an act disgraceful to himself and his con
stituents. It is with sincere regret that we
must say that a great majority of our public
men are addicted to the use of ardent spirits.
We have seen the spectacle of a Senator of the
United States entering the Senate Chamber
in a condition on a par with the veriest drunken
beggar in the gutter. Nor is such an instance
unparelleled, for during the session J of that
body, within a year past, another member, in
a lit of drunken rage, drew a revolver on the
Sergeant-at-Arms, in the presence of the
highest legislature of our land. When these
facts are patent, who can fail to join with us
in rejoicing at the proposed reformation ?
The manly speech of Governor Yates is one
which cannot fail to have a good effect through
out the length and breadth of the land, while
the commencement of the movement by such
men as Henry Wilson, Schuyler Colfax, Sena
tor Morrill, and the like, will give an e'dat and
a standing to the effort which will encourage
others to come ami do likewise. We have had
too many instances of intoxication in the high
est places of the land, not to feel hopeful at the
already commenced reformation. The Houses,
as official bodies, took a wise step in ordering
the removal of the bar beyond the limits of the
Capitol building; and we feel confident that
the meeting, outside of its semi-official charac
ter, will give an impetus to reformation which
will save our country from the disgrace of
having leaders and law-makers the slaves of
tho basest of their appetites.
Tub End ok the Irish Odtukkak. The
Fenian outbreak in Ireland has already come
to an end. The county of Kerry has been pro
claimed to be in a state of siege. Some one
hundred and fifty of the rioters have been
arrested, and the Government is despatching
more troops to Ireland.
The result of this late outbreak will simply
be to add a few more victims to tho already
long catalogue of those who have already suf
fered for Irish independence. The work is a
hopeless one, and no more lives should bo
wasted upon it. Irish emancipation must
finally come with the general emancipation of
the British masses from the dominion of the
aristocracy. The independence of Ireland as a
separate power is, probably, destined to be
never realized.
Sermons in To-day's "Tklkohaph." Two
interesting sermons will be found in our
columns to-day. One of them, on the litera
ture of the day, was preached by the Rev. Dr.
Nadal, before the Young Men's Christian Asso
ciation, at Dr. Barnes' Church, last evening;
and tho other, on "Self-Knowledge as attahied
through a knowledge of God," was delivered
by the Rev. Dr. Vinton, of New York, at the
Church of the Epiphany, being one of the ad
mirable course of Sunday evening sermons
maintained in that church during this winter.
Explanation. We asked some days since
what Congress meant by accusing its members
of "nigging," and whether to "nigg" was a
crime? We have received a letter from a
gentleman who was present in the House at
the time of the debate, who endeavors to sim
plify the difficulty by stating that the word
was not "nigging," but "rigging." Well, we
hope this simplifies the matter, but to us it
seems very much like defining "peripore,"
as a '-periphery." It leaves us about as much
in the dark as wo were before.
Eiiitoiss in the Printed Biiile. A London
paper notices a curious misprint in one of the
editions of the New Testament printed at Ox
ford, where the word "glad" was converted
into "clad." The person who detected the
error received the reward of one guinea which
the Oxford press oilers for such a discovery.
It is an extraordinary fact that, with this
standing oiler of a reward, and all the vigi
lance of readers,! Sunday School teachers, and
scholars, this error of a single letter is the only
one that has been detected in upwards of sixty
different editions.
P. M. Nisard has recently published an
"Historical Essay on Popular Songs among
the Ancients and tin French,'1 which is fol
lowed by a study of contemporay street songs.
