W. PATTOX, Chairman. fcai?"A gentleman from this section i recently visited the Shenandoah Val ley, Virginia, with some views of pur chasing, but. has returned satisfied that even there, within a few dat's travel of the National Capital, there is no safety for a northern man, cither for life or property —that away from na tional troops the expression of Union siiitiineiits is dangerous —and that a • man might as well locate on the wes- tern borilors near savages AS simony the guerrillas of the Shenandoah. who daring the war, wer e farmers in day time and thieves and murderers at night, , VffiuAn important conversation is ' said to liuve taken place recently be tween the President and a distingue-li ed Senator, in which the former is ro- V>orted as having expressed a doubt a* to the propriety of'-further amending tue Constitution at this time. One great amendment had been made. I It the basis of representation was to be changed it could be done by appor tioning representatives according to the number of voters, and taxation ace >rdii.-g to the value of the property j in each Stale. This would, lie thought, I place the basis of representation upon correct principles. It would remove j discussions as to the political equality ot the races from Congress, and leave States to determine the qualifications of their voters The agitation of the negro-franchise question in the Dis trict of Columbia, he thought, was ill timed, and a mere entering wedge to its agitation throughout the States. Proceedings of Congress Mr Stevens, from the Committee on Reconstruction, reported an amend ment to the Constitution, providing that represeniaion and taxation shall be based on the whole number of per sons, provided in tio States where the elective franchises is denied or abrid"- : od OH account of race or color, ail such persons shall be excluded from ! the basis of representation. In the House, Mr. Upson, (Mich. , from the Committee on Elections made report that Alexander 11. Cof froth, who has the certificate of elec tion from the Sixteenth Congressional District of Pennsylvania, has prima facia the right to the seat from that : district, and is entitled to take the oath of office and occupy the said seat without prejudice to the contestant, Wm. H. Koontz. Mr. Paine (Wis.), from the minority of the committee, made a report that i Wm. If. Kooutz is prima facie entitled to the seat. Both roports propose that the con-! testants serve on Mr. Coffroth, within fifteen days after the passage ot the j resolution, a particular statement of the grounds of said contest, and that Mr. Coffroth sorve on Mr. Koontz, an ' answer thereto, within fifteen days thereafter, and that both parties have , sixty days to take testimony in sup port of their several allegations. The reports lie over for future con sideration. A Vital Question. Article tirst, section second, para graph third of the Constitution of the Union provides that "representatives " and direct taxes shall be apportioned '• among the several States which 'nay " be included within this Union, accord •' ing to their respective numbers.which "shall he determined by adding to the " whole number of free persons, inclu " ding those bound to service tor a term "of years, and excluding Indians, nut " taxed, three-fitths of all other per '* sons." We intended to make some remarks on the above quotation, but find the following article from the Johnstown Tribune pretty near what we desired to say, except some illustrations from the census returns to which we may refer hereafter. Under the apportionment of mem bers ol Congress based upon the cen sus of IsUU the South was entitled be fore the war to nineteen members whose constituency were of the class denominated in the constitutional phrase "three fifths of ail oilier per sons," — that is. slaves. If the theory that the late rebel Cjtales were never out of the I'liion is accepted by Con gress, and the policy advocated by some of'-reconstructing" those States is permitted to prevail, of course the South will still lie entitled, under the present apportionment, to those same nineteen representatives. That is to say, the late rebels of the South, in ad- dition to sending representatives to Congress for all their white population and all their negroes heretofore free, will send nuieteen representatives lor three-tilths of their late slaves,—all ot which slaves were loyal to the flag, and not one of whom will be permitted to vote by their late masters if they can help it. But the iniquity will not end here. After the census of IS7O there will be a new apportionment of political pow er. According to the clause < f the Constitution above quoted, five fifths of the negroes of the South lately slaves will be represented in Cong ess —live fifths instead of three-fifths, for. the adoption of tie constitutional amend ment abolishing slavery consolidates "all other persons" with the "free per sons " This will give twelve more representatives to the Mouth—in all. thirty-one whose constituents are non voting blacks. I bese figures at e startling. Are the loyal people of the country ready to accept the results of ./*•// "reconstruc tion.'' Are they ready to give to dis loyal men so great a political advan tage in the councils of the nation?— \ea, and in the r-leetorai College, too? for every member of Congress counts one vote in the choice of a President and ice President. Arc they ready to surrender the Government of the country into the hands of Southern rebels and their sympathizers in the .Noitio for, who needs to be convinced that, without an amendment to the Constitution which will base represen t.itien on voters instead of numbers, the Democratic party, so culled, will soon be reinstated in power, to restore slavery in f.-tot. repudiate the Federal debt, and j lace Hubert E. J.ee and others like him in high places at Wash ington? It was not for this that the lato War for the Union was prosecuted for lour long not for this. It cannot be that Congress will permit so anti ro publican, so unjust, and so dangerous a plan of "reconstruction" to be adopt ed. i here must be security for the future— security against rebel domina tion in the halls of Congress and at the White House. We have "an abi ding faith that the present Congress will give us such security, before a sin gle rebel is ever suffered to legislate lor the whole country. ln r rted has lately prevailed Ci ' ths sat *"• ..iirthT Kts.!,: ',tX7S T ut't "" °" r """""''l- A man name !

Pennsylvania Legislature Susquehanna Fisheries' Restoration Bill. The committee, of which Col.

We copy the fol lowing summary of its provisions from the Telegraph : It provides that it shail he the dutv ot any persons or corporations owning dams in the .Susquehanna river and its principal tributaries to construct there in such sluices or other devices as to permit the passage ot fish—directs the appointment by tne Governor of a com missioner, who shall, before the first of next June, designate the location ot such sluices, having m view the best , sites for the tree passage of ti-h, &c., and fixing the length thereof, his de' cision on the subject to he final The pay of the commissioner is fixed at 810 per day with tiie same additional per diem allowance tor one <>r more assis tants. it t lie sluices are not construe ted by the first of November, it i> made the duty ot the c oiimissionet* to report the same to the disti ict attornev of the county in which said dam is located, who is required to prefer a hill of in dictnient loi maintaining and keeping up a public nuisance. fhe offence is mad.; a misdemeanor, and upon con viction, the persons or corporations owning said dams shall he fined in anv sum not less than five thousand dollars, nor more than twenty thousand dol lars; and if the sluice shall not he per fected within thirty day* after lite con viotion, it is in ide the duty of the court to issue a rit to the sheriff of the proper county, commanding him to abate said dam at the cost of the per sons or corporations owning the same. It makes it unlawful for any person to fish with some or net within one half mile below the aforesaid sluices, under a penalty of not less than three hun dred and not more than one thousun i dollars. Eel or fish baskets are pro hi hi ted also, under a penalty of not iess than five hundred dollars. It makes it unlawful, under a penalty ot not less than twenty thousand dollars, and an imprisonment of not less than twelve months, for any person to ob struct or to close temporarily anv <>t the sluices provided for. The"hill also repeals the joint resolution of the 19th of March, relative to the darn of the Susquehanna Canal Company at Columbia. One-half tiie fir.es provid ed lor in the bill goes to the informer, and the other halt to the common schools.
