RECONSTRUCTION.
Tun Slovens' BUI for tho Military
Government of tho Southern States,
was passed tlnally l03t week and sub
mittixl to tho President for his approval
or rejection. In Its original form, as It
prtssod tho House, It was for Military
Government puro and simple: tho
Southern States being treated iw con
quercd territory nnd to bo ruled by
Generals of tho army according to their
pleasure, through military commissions
nnd other instruments of despotic pow
er. ThlsBlll, which wasspoken against
In tho Senate by Sir. Johnson, of Mary
land, .Mr. Uuckalow. Mr. Hendricks of
Indiana, nnd others, beoamo loo odious
to secure a majority In tho Scuato j it
Svas thorcforo sent to a caucus of tho
ltadical majority nnd manipulated into
n new form. Tho power of selecting
Generals to command Military Dis
tricks, was transferred from General
Grant to tho.l'resldcnt: Tho third sec-
tion, which limited tho Supremo Court
In its Jurisdiction in cases of habeas cor
pus, was struck out, and a fifth section,
providing n plan of reconstructing
Stato Governments, 011 a basis of negro
suffrage, was ndded. Tho caucus bill
passed tho Senate, and after somo fur
thor proceedings, and tho addition of
two odious amendments by tho IIouso,
wero agreed to and sent to tlio Prcsi
dent.
Tho preamblo declares tho existing
Stato Governments iu tho South to bo
illegal ; subjects thoso States to military
Jurisdiction, nnd asserts tho comploto
control of Congress fo nil purposes
over tho people. It thus expels tho
Constitution of tho United States, with
nil its guaranties of liberty nnd self-
government, In tlio wholo Southern
conntry, except Tennessee, which Is
represented In Congress.
Tho plan of reconstruction, proposed
by the bill, Is wortny of tho unscrupu
lous and malignant men who mako It
Tho formation of new Stato govern-
monts Is provided for, but in choosing
members of -Constitutional Conventions,
ond in voting upon Constitutions which
may bo made, nil malo negroes! abovo
twenty-ono years of ngo aro to votoj
while all will to citizens, who over held
any ofllco, Stnto or Federal, nro exclud
ed from voting. And then tho States,
thus re-organized, aro not to bo recog
nized as States, or admitted to repre
sentation In Congress as n matter of
right. It is declared that Cougress may
rccognizo them or not, as it pleases, and
in tho mcantiino, tho governments set
up aro to bo considered as provisional
ouly. Tho existing governments set up
by tho people, aro to bo wiped out. Ar
bitrary military government is to bo
BUbstltutcd for them ; tlio wholo mass
of adult male negroes aro mado voters,
nnd then Congre-s Is to consider what
inoro Is to bo ilono 1 Despotism and do
graded suffrage nro tho leading features
of tho bill, nnd all tho good peoplo of
tho North who woro oheatcd and mis
led Into voting for Itaflicnl Congrcss
mtn, nro oxpected to cry amen 1 Itcan
now bo seen distinctly that the preten
tions) In moderation nnd Justice,, mado
beforq tlio peoplo, by Radical caiull
dates.wero wholly falsc,nnd tho charges!
mado against them entirely true. They
establish despotism, pollute tho ballot-
box, nnd spurn tho Constitution. "What
nro their oaths worth? For they nro
each bound by a most solemn obllgntlon
to maintain tho Constitution of our
fathers. They aro worth Just what
their mendacious declarations last fall
boforo tho peoplo wero worth, when
thoy declared that negro suiTrago not an
issuo in tho elections. And these aro
tho men who talk of Impeaching tho
President because ho performs his Con
stitutional duties, keeps tho oath bv
which ho Is bound, and remains truo to
our Republican institutions, and to tho
wholo peoplo of tho United States !
THE BUSINESS DONE.
Wo nrlnt In nnnthnr noltimti (?m
"Military Reconstruction Bill" as it
passou mo tscnato nnu House, on tho
20th. Without being qulto so bad as
Thru!. Stevons Bill, it is a disgraco to
tho Nation as a scienco or a business.
Tho first ftvo sections of tlio Bill nro
tho original Senato Bill ; and tho pro
viso to tho fifth section, and tho sixth
.ficctlon wero. added in tho IIouso, and
agreed to In tho Senate. It will be
seen that tho Bill as It loft tho Senate,
imposed negro suiTrago on tho South,
oven in tho making of tho Stnto Con
stitutions, by saying that tho delegates
should bo voted for without regard to
race or color; and it puts tho wholo
South into tho hands of Irresponsible
military satraps, and tho Stnto or civil
law is null and void. But wo refer our
readors to tho Bill Itself, for a full des
cription of nil Its outrages.
Wo aro glad to obsorvo that the Dcmo
cmtsln tho Senato votod against tho
.Bill ; and tho proceedings stnto that nil
tho Democrats in tho IIouso voted
against it, as follows :
All tho Republicans present, includ
ing Messrs. Stevens, Banks, Boutwell
and Raymond, voted for Mr. Wilson's
amendment as wodlflod, nnd all tho
Democrats against It.
Tho question recurred on agreeing to
Mr. Wilson's motion to concur with
tho Senato nmendnont offered by Mr.
Wilson, as that was amended on motion
f Mr. Hhollaborger.
TJ10 voto was taken by yens nnd nays
nnd resulted 125 yeas nnd -10 nays n
atrlct party vote. So tho Sonnto amend
ments, ns thus modified, wero agrred to
and tho BUI win nt 1 :o o'clock sent
back to Uio Senate.
HON. 0. R. BUCKALEW.
Very great, and let us bono unlnten
tlonnl, Injustice has been dono by somo
tif tho Pennsylvania papers to lion.
Charles R. Uuckalow, Senator from this
Stntc, for hlscourso.on tho bill nccept-
mg j,cnguo isinmi ns tho silo for thonow
iron-clad navy yard. In tho ncccossn.
rlly bricfnnd therefore Imperfect reports
of tho proceedings of Congress by tho
Associated Press, which nro nil that tho
general public over sees or knows of
these Important proceedings, no Justice
can do aono to tlio ordinary business of
tho bodies, much less to tho Senators
nnd Representatives; nnd until somo
system is adopted by law by which tlio
dally summary for tho newspapers of
tlio work of tho two houses i3 mado up
uy experts, mm sent forth ns an official
or rather authorized condensation of
that work, nothing but Imperfect re
ports need bo oxpected. Sucli summa
ries would not provent special reports
by tho Journals that could afford tolmvo
thcm,but they would provent tho griev
ous omissions that aro placing Bcnntors
nnd Representatives in a false light be
foro their constituents. Of course, it
was uccatisoiur. Bueknlcw's position on
Leaguo Island was not or could not bo
reported that his opponents hnvo charg
ed upon lilm Indlfferenco or negllgcnco
to a matter lu which not only his own
peoplo but the wholo country feel n doer.
Intorest. A Philadelphia paper alleges
thatwhilc ho voted forncceptlng Leaguo
island no never opened his mouth in
favor of it; and, Judging by tho report
of tho Associated Press, this is truo
enough. But what nro tlio facta ? To
Mr. Hendricks, of Indiana, who, in co
operation with Mr. Bucknlew, has sup
ported thoblll from tho first, the task of
speaking on tho measure was gladly ac
corded by both tho Ponnsylvauia Sena
tors, because ho. enmo from nnother
Stnto, nnd Mr. Cattell, of Now Jersey,
had to speak in its favor as long a mem
ber of tho Philadelphia Corn Exchango
nnd other bodies In our city, nnd there
fore fully identified with tho measure.
Mr. Buckalew was prepared to follow
on tho samo sldo, but It was evident
that tho bill would pass if it was not de
layed by speeches from Its friends. Ac-
cordlngly.nftern full understanding be
tween them, Mr. Buckalew waived his
right to speak in order sccuro tho suc
cess of tho bill. Wo copy .from tho olll
cial proceedings in tho Globe of tho slxi
tccnth of February last :
Mr. Buckalew. Ttls not very often
that wo nro occupied In tho questions
that nro local to my Stato; it is very
rare indeed. This bill is of local inter
est to all our people and to all the mem
bers in both Houses who represent them.
In order,however, tosavo valuablo time,
both tho members from Pennsylvania
in tills body are willing in this deb.ito
to wnivo the ordinary privilege, which,
under other circumstances they would
exerciso to discuss this measure and to
reply to thono arguments which have
been submitted osrainst it. For in v own
part I havo never Intended to sav any
thing moro since tho subject was'tnkon
up for tho last time than to Milmilr. n
few observations, not occupying flvo
minima, ui uu i'pinuniory cnarncter,
to explain to my peoplo at homo tho
reasons why my colleague and myself
havo not entered more Inro-nlv Into tUU
debate. Thecircum'stancos are peculiar,
and in ordcrto facilitate tlio business of
the Senate and that this measure-' shall
not bo an obstruction to other measures
of legislation or a eauso of ofl'enco to
any gentlemen who desiro other ma
snres to bo taken up, wo havo adopted
1110 couio wnicn 1 Jiavo mentioned. I
think, however, it would bo n very un
reasonable thing if tlio Senate should
rofuso now, when tho debate must bo
pretty well spent, when it cannot bo
po.-siblo that a very considerable! norlnd
of time will bo occupied in further tils
ciission, to put this mcasuro to n voto
after listening to whatever of debate is
yet to take placo upon it. It cannot
bo protracted ; and then, when wo havo
heard It, letusdecido tho question nnd
docido it finally.
As tho two Houses contemplate a
chango in tho publisher of tho Congres
sional debates, tho matter of an authentic
nnd intelligible bumninry of the business
of legislation for tlio daily and associ
ated press may now bo safely considered.
Tho Joint Commlttco on Printing havo
had it before them on several occasions,
nnd nro probably well posted In regard
to it. Forney's Press. (Republican.)

T1I13 rltESinENTIAk COMl'ROMISE.
In coinpllaneo with tho instructions
of tho House, Mr. Wcntworth, of 1111
hols, this morning, submitted n report
from tho special commlttco appointed
to inqiilro into tho particulars of nu al
leged compromise between tho Presi
dent nnd certain Republican members
of tho House. Tho evidence taken by
tho committee, not being written out in
full, wns not presented. Tlio report,
however, contains tho points lu the tes
timony of tho two most important wit
nesses Messrs. Wordcn nnd Esto from
which it nppcars there was no bargain
or agreement whntovcr between tho
Executtvo nnd tho members referred to,
and not n slnglo word of ovldoneo from
any quarter to sustain tho allegations
contained in tho prenmbloof tho reso
lution raising tho committee. This fact
wns ndmltted by Wcntworth, nnd Its
ndmlsslon created great laughter on tho
floor of tho House. Tho attempt to
mako political capital against tho Pres
ident by means of this investigating
commlttco has proved a mlscrablo fail
ure, nnd placed Mr. Wcntworth In a
rather uncnvlablo position. After hav
ing been tho chief Instrument in raising
tho committee, ho was compelled to nsk I
tlio Houso to-day to dlschargo them
from tho further consideration of tho
subject. Mr. Glossbrcnncr, n member
of tho commlttco, followed fn n speech
giving nn nccount of tho doings of tho
commlttco nnd tho method of tho Inves
tigation. During tho delivery of Mr.
G.'s remarks tho members crowded
around him and listened attentively
ivfter ho had concluded tlio question
was taken and tho commlttco unanl
mously discharged from tho further
consideration of tlio subject.
TUB TARIFF.
It was understood, last evening, that
Mr. Morrill would call up tho tariff bill
at nn.enrly hour to-day, but, up to this
writing, nothing of tho kind has been
done. I hear that leading members of
tho IIouso givo up tho bill as lost this
session. Tho voto yesterday effectually
Killed it off. Jt will bo. revived, how
ever, early In Jlarcli, nnd may, possibly,
bo enacted cro tho closo of that month.
BURRATT.
John II. Surrntt wns yesterday ar
raigned before tho bar of tho Criminal
Court of this district. Tlio fact that ho
would bo brought before tho tribunal so
early was not generally known, and tho
crowd in attendance was not uncom
monly large. The prisoner was brought
over from Jail and placed at tho bar by
Marshal Coding. Ills Zouavo uniform
had been removed, and ho was attired
In a suit of blnck. When brought Into
court his iinnds wero handcuffed, but by
request of his counsel tho Court ordered
them released, and tho indictment was
read to him by tho clerk of tho court.
Surrntt entered the plea of "not guilty."
Tho clerk then asked : "How will you
1)0 tried To which tho response was
made; "By my countrymen;" when
tho officer added, "Then may God send
you nsafo deliverance." Tho handcuffs
wero then replaced, and tho prisoner
remanded to jail. No excitement what
ever was manifested during the tlmoof
Surratt's presence In the courtroom.
It lsthcintcutlon toconimencohlstruil

engaged In preparing his defonco. Tho
three principal witnesses for tlio govern
ment are St. Marie, who discovered Sur

boforo tho Military Commission ; and
Lloyd, tho man who received tho fire
arms from Mrs. Surrntt nt the tavern In
Maryland. They nro nil hero.

The veto message of the Military Re

General Grant, on good nuthority, Is

Tho lands held by this Company, oonslut of

and Blxty-four porches, of carefully nolectod land
lying southwest of Wllkes-llnrro, Lur.erito comi
ty, Pa.. In the western part of tho Ureal Northern
or Wyoming Coal Ilasln,
A very careful mid thorough examination ro-
conlly inado has proven theso (for tho abovo)
lands to be tho embodiment of n vast amount of
tliu very best quality ofaulhracllo coal, having
every facility that could bo desired for trans
IHirtatlon In nil directions, Tlio nbovo tract Is
ciosscd by a good road, nnd nlso directly In
front, nnd Joining mo tho Ijieknwannn A Mourns
burg railroad, and tho Wjomlng canal, thus nf.
fording tho very best advantngeof nearrylng road
nnd canal running to tho very mouth or tho
mines without expenso to tho eompnny,
Tho measurement or tho dliruront beds or scams
nlrendy developed wns enrefally obtained ntul

Including tho celebrated "Red Ash,""lltick .Moun

ylold n ton, giving a largo amount of tho bet
finality of coal.
Tholoentlon Is sucli Hint nil tho veins niny bo
cut nnd workod to the greatest possible advantage
nbovo water level, nnd nt much loss oxpaiiNn than
can bo dono from eollcrles operating below water
level.
Tho coal enn bo brought to tho surfaeo through
drifts or tunnels wlilchdraln tlio water from tho
mines and saves tlio hoisting of tho coal. So tho
eligibility of theso lands for cheap mlnlni! Is un
questionable. Very lately tho "Orand Tunnel"
or "Rod Ash" vein has been opened, and Is now
proaucing nsiiuo n quality or coal nu has ever
been produced In tho nnthroclto regions. Tlio
breaker now In nis-ratlon li cnpablo of preparing
from 150 to BOO tons per day. Tho surfaco contains
an nbundant supply of wood and timber very val
uable for mining purposes, which ghes tho tract
tho ndvuntago of many oilier coal lands. Tho,
iitci. mai. niuinsi au vniunoio coal lands are ijolng
