Virginia anil Mlsslwdppl, although the fii'ijcrt w.h
not technically before tins committer It w,n dH-
enssed In all lu ph'ises. Finally, it wai nua:iiiu ).niy
agreed to report the Joint re.ijlution of Kannw.irth,
already before the House, relative to holding the
election In Virginia, and to append thereto a similar
provision with regard to Mississippi and ToxaM. This
met the approval of the Dnm ocratson the committee,
as well as the Republicans. The President Is au
thorized to provide for holding elections to s ibmit
the constitutions of Virginia, Mississippi, and Texas
to the people at such time as he deems bent, and In
snch manner as he thinks proper. He may either
submit the constitution as a whole or In part. Butler
will endeavor to report this to the House to-rluy, and
as It meets the approval of both Democrats and a
majority of the Republicans, It Is thought It will go
through without much opposition or delay.
Brooks has already, with the knowledge of the
action of the committee before him. withdrawn his
motion to refer the messago to the Judiciary Com
mittee. It Is thought there will be no necessity fur
rescinding tne resolution oi aniournmeiu, ann doui
houses will get away on Saturday, as already ar
ranged. Butler had a long Interview with the Presi
dent to-day before the Reconstruction Committee
met, and, it is understood, was perfectly satlslled that
Grant would ukq care oi ino elections to
be held In the unreconstructed Htates. With this
understanding, he favors the recommendations of
the message. The Judiciary Committee of the (Sen
ate had the same subject under uwcusslon, and it is
said there was quite an exciting time over It In the
committee. They II null. y agreed not to take any
action on the subject of reconstruction or on the
recommendations of the message. This action may
cause a delay on tnu House proposition in tue ttenate,
anu may ueieat it.

Special VcHpaUh to The Evening Telegraph.
Richmond, va., April b. For a loug ume it nas
been Impossible to collect the taxes levied by the
State against the oystermen who Infest the waters of
Virginia. The amount uncollected amounts to thou
sands of dollars. Whenever the civil olllcers attempt
to collect the tax the oystermen show light and drive
them off. This has gone so far that General Webb
has determined to enforce the law, and this morning
has sent a party to Tangier island for the purpose of
making a collection, should Uio watermen resist the
civil olllcers.
The commander at Norfolk Is Instructed to lend all
aid In his power. General Webb Is determined to
have the laws faithfully executed In this and every
other particular. A lively time may be expected. By
an old order of General Grant those who have been
removed from oltlee by the military authority cannot
be reinstated. The authorities hero are troubled
considerably with applications from removed men. .
It Is feared that the cold snap experienced last

Mr. Morton attempted to offer a Joint resolution, whioh.
was objected to, but was rend fur information, as fol
lows ;
Be it resolved, etc., That before the State of Virginia,
Texaa, and Georgia auall bs admitted to representation uv
Congress, their several legislatures, which may be here,
after lawfully orgamxed, shall ratify the tiiteenth arti
cle which has been proposed to the several State as an
amendment to the Constitution of the United State.
Mr. Davis objected to the introduction ol the resolution..
Mr. Trurabuli, from the Conunittee on the Judiciary, to
which tbe President's message of VHSterday had been re
ferred, made a report recommending that ite eoasidera.
tion should be po-tpem-d until the lirst Monday in Decem
ber. HemadoUus report, lie said, by direction of tbe
committee.
Mr. Snmner offi-red a concurrent resolution to rescind
the resolution to adjourn on Saturday next. He tboni;ht
it better to leave the States of Virginia and Mississippi
nnder military government, under the vig-irous, prompt,
kindly a.liiimiFt ration of General Grant until tne next ses
sion, when Congrese could properly consider tne uuestion
of their eadmisniou. itesitles, the President had full
power under existing laws to submit the t kinsiitutionx of
Virginia to the people, and there was no need lor further
legislation on the subject. The same aaa true of Miesie
sippi. Mr. Howard took the samo view.
Mr. Sumner said Uiat iu the work of reconstruction '
nothing was done, while evaiything woe left undone ; and
there was certainly much to be aune before the country
could contideptly expect that prosierity aud peace
which were to crown the work of reconstruction. There
were also other important matters demanding the imme
diate attention ot Congress, chief among which were the
Pacific Railroad and the revision of tile naturalisation
laws.- To show the necessity for action on the latter
subject, he road a l.-tter ironi "one ot our friends in New
York," expressing f.-ox that Congress would adjourn with
out doing anything to pnnih the onormou election fmnde
perpetrated in New fork by the Deiuocr.ttio party, or to
prevent the other greater frauds which that party has in
contemplation, stating that there was a combination be
tween Tammany Hall and the Erie Railroad Oompany for
fraudulent pnipiv.es, and erpresoing the writer belief that
unices such frauds wore puuiahed by Congress, and pre
vented in the future, the Republican party would never
win an election in thut State.
Mr. Stewart saw no necessity for prolonging tbe session
beyond next Saturday'. Tho reasons nrged by some Heue-
tors against adjournment re not new, bnt wore jnst aa
well known at the time ot the passage of the resolution to
adjourn on Saturday as now.
str. i -onKiing toon me muiis view, lie moaant tne roroe
of the argument sgaim-t adiouniing of tile bcaaXor from
MasKachitsetta (Mr. buuiner) was aomewhat lessened by
the fact that that Senator always opposed such resolu
tions.
The motion to iutinna the unfinished business waa
lost, yeaa 20, nays jj, and the Senate then proceeded te
consiaer the mil. .
House ol Kepresenlullves.
The anestlon in rufurence to the President's message of
yesterday came up.
Mr. rl rooks aai'i tnat ne nnnnrstoou tne Itooonstrneuon
Committee had taken ,inu action t'da mo.-ning iu accord
ance witli the I'reiident's s'isgnst ions, and he therefore
withdrew the motion to rfer the musutage W the Judiciary
Uoiuniitiee.
1 lie mesHage was then referred to the Reoonstrnetion
Committee.
Mr. Cook iuovet to snend the rules that be might re
port from tbe Judiciary t omniittoe a bill to provide for
pnblialiing the opinions of the Attorney-Generals, ect. The
rules were not suspended.
The House thu proceeded to the consideration of tha
contested election cases from the Third and Fourth Con
gressionul districts of Hon III Carolina.

J'ucit to his seat as Representative from the Fourth Con
gressional district of South Carolliui, wa adopted.
Mr. Butler (Ma.), then, from tho Reconstruction Conv
miftee, reported it bill authorizing the submission of the
constitutions of Virginia, Muwisaippi, and Texas to a vote
of the people, and authorizing tbe election of State officer
and members of I Umgress.
The bill authorizes the President at snch time aa be may
deem best to submit the Virginia Constitution to the re
gistered voters of that State, for ratification or rejection,
and also to submit to a separate vote snch provisions of
that Constitution as he may deem besk The elections to

the election ordinance adopted by the Conven
tion. It authorir.es the President to sub
