Towanda, Thursday, May 24,1806. THK RBCOMiTRICTION REPORT. The report of the joint committee on Re construction, and the ratification of the vi tal feature of the report by the decisive vote of the House, prescut the great prob lem of restoration to the country in a tan gible form. The time is past now when the purpose of Congress can be misrepre sented by those who seek to serve the cause of traitors. After patiently investi gating the condition of the rebellious States—taking the testimony of leading rebels and loyalists in those States, the committee united every Republican on the amendments of the constitution and the bills reported, and they declare to the na tion and to the world, in substance if not in form, the position of the Union party on the restoration of the rebel States to fellow ship. There are many Union men who do not fully coincide with the entire report of the committee. Some would liberalize the third amendment and thus leave treason practically without a penalty ; others would make the disfranchisement cease only with the death of those who had waged war against the government, and others would demand that the loyal men of the South, without regard to color or con dition, be clothed with the ballot as a measure of justice alike to themselves and to the couutry. But while there is great diversity of opinion as to the details of the proper policy of reconstruction, we believe that the Union men will unite cordially and earnestly in supporting any measure that may be accepted by the Union men of Congress. What the loyal men of the na tion most desire jia to have some definite policy, not wholly dictated by traitors, that can be made the fixed and settled policy of the government. Considering that the Pres ident seems to have no higher ambition than to clothe treason with honors and pow er, it is well for the Union party to look to practical results and not sacrifice all by re fusing what can be attained. It is mani fest that any penalty for treason and any security agaiust renewed discoid and war, must be achieved over the head and in de fiance of the power and patronage of the President, who reached his position by the suffrages of the millions of loyal people whose convictions he now so fiercely an tagonizes, and Congress must therefore calculate well its position and make the future safe by secaring all that the present can give. We have loug since yielded confiscation and the punishment criminally of ths lea- 1 de* sof the rebellion. They marked their desolated pathway of power by the most vigorous confiscation, and punished unto , death the avowal of loyal sentiments in the dominions of treason, but with an Exe cutive who is clearly committed to save them harmless in person and property, it is impracticable. The result is that loyal men must bear the crushing debt created by treason, and the men wo, in vio atiou of a 1 accepted rules of war .nd every dic tate of humanity, deliberately murdered thousands o Union heroes in prison pens, are now, with the President, attempting to dictate to the government that conquered them, the terms on winch they will consent to fill our legislative halls agaiu. In thir work tin apostate Johnson and the traitors who are flinging their insolence into the i face of the nation under the protection of ! the President, have the cordial sympathy i and hearty co-operation ot the entire Demo cratic party, and its success will be th: success of treason and of the President in the pending struggle. We trust that the Senate will take speedy action on the report of the committee. Un til Con ress shall present to the country with its high sanction, a practical soluti n of the great question, the power of treason and its sympathizers will be potent to em barrass the government and divide the peo ple. Bnt when both branches of Congress shall declare upon what terms traitors shall be restored to the rights of property and citizenship, and the appeal is made to the people to sustain that action, the contest will be well nigh won. It cannot be doubt ed that every loyal State would promptly call its legislature aud ratify auy amend ment presented by Congress as essential to the safety of the government,aud with such an expression iu favor of Congress, treason would be glad to yield rather than have the aroused reseutmeut of the people whose j forbearance has already been severely tes ted. Let the country have the amendments speedily, and the Union men will be fully prepared for the struggle. It will be des perate but desisive, -ud it will be the last great gtruggle of traitors to subvert ths government they failed to destroy by caus less * ar. TH UMION STATB CINTRAL CoMMITTEB.— This committee met last week at the Na tional Union Olub House, Philadelphia. We learn from the i'rtw that a large ma jority of the members were present. C'ol, Frank Jordan, chairman, presided, and E. H. Raucb, Esq., of Berks county, was ap pointed secretary pro tcm. The usual subr committees were appointed, and arrange ments made for future meetings of the principle committee On motion, Wm. H. Kemble, Esq., of Philadelphia, was ap pointed treasurer, and the chairman was authorized to appoint three permanent sec retaries. Messrs. George W. Hammer sley, of Germantown, A. W. Benedict, of Hnutingdon, and J. Robly Dunglison, of Philadelphia, wore selected as secretaries, and the appointments subsequently unani mously confirmed. The proceedings of the meeting were en tirely harmonious, and the reports from all parts of the Commonwealth of the most flattering character. The members of the committee are determined to prosecute the campaign with energy and zeal, and are sanguine of electing our gallant standard bearer, Gen. Geary, by an immense ma jority. THE VETO OF THF. COLORADO BlLL. —While the country is not surprised at the veto of of the bill admitting Colorado as a State, a very general expression of indignation has been <1 cited already at at the frivo lous reasons assigned to sustain the Presi dent's objections to the act. He asserts that the popnlation of the Territory is in adequate to form a State Government, and that the people who do live there are not desirous of organizing such a government. This iB of course frivolous and captious. The vote at the two elections held in Col orado proves that the Constitutional num ber of citizens inhabit the territory, while the census taken shows that the popula tion of Colorado is sufficient to ask for a State organization. These are the facts. The President's objections, as we have already stated, are merely frivolous and captious. His secret motive for resorting to the veto is to deprive the Senate of two members who are opposed to "my policy," and punish the citizens of a territory who dare to differ with a "Tribune of the Peo ple." —The test which the President applies to the Colorado bill, if it iuvolves a princi ple of the importance which he professes to see in it, should find au application in the case of the revolted States as they ask for rehabilitation. Florida will serve to illustrate this principle. Iler population iu not only inadequate, but the vagabonds who inhabit that territory are intensely disloyal. Is the President in favor of the admission of Florida as a State ? THE NATIONAL FINANCES. —The receipts into the United States Treasury for the nine months of the fiscal year ending April Ist, |410,000,000; and the Controller of the Currency estimates that the receipts for the year ending July Ist will reach 560,000 000. The new tax law will probably diminish reoeipls from several sources for the next jear; but there will be new taxes,(such as the tax on Cotton,) and the Southern States will yrobably yield considerable revenue; so that the receipts for the year commencing July Ist, 1866, will not iu all probably be less than the total for the current year. The aggregate being thus large it seems reasonable to hope that there will be suf ficient margin to permit a large reduction of the public debt. We have now reached the maximum of that debt; and having ex tinguished the tloating claims that have accumulated since the war closed, the de mands upon the Treasury will be confined hereafter to the interest on the public debt and the ordinary expenses of the govern* meut. After paying these there must, if due prudence be used by Congress in the appropriations, be a handsome balance left for the reduction of the debt FROM EUROPK. —The steamship Cuba ar rived Monday at Halifax, with advices from Europe to the 13th inst. Toe most important news is the terrible financial panic in England, which is pronounced, on Mr. Gladstone's authority, to be with out parallel in the commercial history of England. The great banking house of Overend, Gurney k Co. suspended on the 11th, their liabilities being estimated at be tween ten and twelve million pounds ster ling. Many other disasterous failures are announced, among theui that of Sir Morton Peto, with whom much sympathy was ex pressed. Business was almost entirely suspended in Loudon, Liverpool, Manches ter, and other commercial centres, but it was hoped that the panic had done its worst, and would spread no further. The news from the Cont : nent continues warlike, but presents no decisive features. The dispatches from the several sources are as numerous and contradictory as usual. Mr. Motley had protested against the sending of Anstraian reinforcements to Maximillian, and it was understood that, in consequence | of this protest, they would not be sent. No HOPE. —We cannot see that there is any hope that the President will hereafter shape his course according to the platform on which he accepted oflice and pledged himself to be guided by. He seems to be more and more alienting himself from his Union friends and shapiug his course and allowing himself to be influenced mainly by those who sympathize with, and some of those who actively participated in the re bellion. Had the President followed up his promises with acts,compelling the late reb els and all tainted persons to undergo a proper purgation, the quiet and prosperity of the country would be permanently se cured But if promineut rebels are to be thrust forward into high places, and estab lished in our halls of legislation to make laws for us, while their hands still reek with tho evidences of their treason, we can have little hope of a speedy realization of our wishes. TUB NBW FIVE CENT COIN.—The act which has passed the Senate and House of Representatives to authorize the coinage of five cent nieces, provides that the new five cent pieces shall be eompsed of copper and nickel, not exceedipg twenty-cent per cent, of nickel. This coin is to be a legal-ten der to the amount of one dollar, and re deemed when presented in sums of not less than one hundred dollars. It is proposed to make this coin exactly five grammes or T7-16-100 grains in weight. Three of the coins will weigh one half of an ounce, and will be convenient in the pocket for a postage weight. The law also prohibits the issue of fractional notes less than ten cents after the passage of this act. The color and appearance of this coin will be similar to the three cent Coin, author ized by act of March 3d, 1895. POSTAL AFFAIRS AT THE SOUTH. —The Post office Pepartme it has issued orders to dis continue the delivery of the mails at an early day at all offices in South Carolina, and perhaps in other States, where there are no commissi ned postmasters. This order, the Governor of South Carolina says, will subject the Press and the business com muuity to very serious embarrassn t un less steps are tak nto secure the rvice.B at each post office of persons who can take the oath prescribed uy Congress : and he therefore recommends that some person be seh cted at each office who can t9ke the rath and give the bonds. THE FLAG RECEPTION ON THE FOURTH OFJULY. The Pennsylvania Central Railroad Com pany, with its usual patriotism, has offered the gratuitous use of its cars for the tran sportation, in July next, of the gallant sol diers who, during the late war, by actual detail, bore the colors of their regiments, or acted as their guard,while they were on the held of battle. Such of these brave men as may be able are requested to as semble in llarrisburg on the Ist of July, and transportation thither will be afforded them upon application to the members of the Military Committee representing the district in which they reside. The mem bers of the Committee on Transportation should secure correct lists of all the sur viving color-bearers and color-guards, and send them to General NEULEY, at Pitts burg, on or before the 26th of the present month, so that no difficulty or delay-trill be experienced in procuring the tickets.— General NEULEY can be addressed at Pitts burg, or General TYNDALE at Philadelphia, in reference to matters connected with this part of the proceeding, on the comeing Fourth ot July. Every member of the committee appoin ted to act in concert with the Governor evinces a-desire to make the reception of the flags an occurrence worthy of our glo rious Commonwealth,and the occasion bids fair to be one, the brilliancy of which will } surpass any other display ever witnessed j in Pennsylvania or in the Union. The general committee representing the j military divisions of Pennsylvania, appoint ed to make arrangements for the presenta tion ol the battle-llags to the Governor, on the Fourth of July,in Independence Square, assembled in the SelectiConucil chamber at noon on Saturday. General Harry White, chairman of the committee, took the chair. A committee was appointed to wait on Governor Curtin and Mayor McMichael, to invite them to assist in the ceremonies.— General White was, on motion, chosen per manent president. Speeches were made by the Governor, Mayor, General White, and others. The following programme was adopted : First. On the second of July that the flags which will have been deposited in j Harrisburg should be brought to Philadel- j pliia by a guard of honor, composed of the j surviving color-bean rs and color-guards of all the regiments of the State. Second. The flags, when brought to Phil adelphia, shall be deposited in some ap propriated hall until the time of the presen | I tation. Third.

It was unanimously resolved that Major ; General Meade be requested to present the j PROCEEDINGS OF CONGRESS WASHINGTON, Thursday, May 17, 18CG.

A joint resolution was passed authorizing the appointment of ex aminers to examine a site at or near Port land, Maine, for a fresh water basin for the iron-clads. Mr. Wade submitted an ar j tide as an amendment to the proposed amendment to the Constitution passed by the House. On motion of Mr. Stewart, the bill granting lands to aid in the construc tion of a railroad and telegraph line from I the Central Pacific railroad in California to Portland, Oregon, was takeu up, and after i amendment, was passed.

HOUSE. —A message from the President, transmitting a letter of Grant in relation to the reorganization of the army, was laid before the House by the Speaker. Mr. Kas : son, of lowa, from the Committee on Coiu age, Weights, and Measures, reported a ! bill to authorize the use of the metric (or j French) system of weights and measures ; ! which was passed. A joint resolution, supplementary and designed to give prap ' tical effect to the bill just passed, was also ! adopted. Mr. Price, of lowa, from the j select committee 011 the Pacific railroad, on leave, reported hack Senate joint resolu- I tion to extend the time for the construction j of the first section of the Union J'acifiQ rail : road ; which was read a third time and | passed.

THE FEDERAL DEAD.— The work of remov ing to Arlington Cemetery the dead bodies ( of soldiers of the Army of the Potomac,who j died from disease and were killed during ' early years of the war, when tjie army was encamped in the vicinity of the city and af terwards,has been completed. There were ! one-thousand six-hundred seventy-eight bod ies disinterred and removed. Captaiu J. R. Ilynes, A. Q. M., who had charge of that work, under directions of the chief quarter master |of the department, has been order | dered to report to Colonel J. M. Moore, A. Q. M., for assignment to similar duty in ; the vicinity of Richmond, Va. A RAILROAD TRAIN BACKS INTO A BOARDING HOUSE—A DANGEROUS SITUATION.— About three o'clock yesterday afternoon, a passen ger train on the Susquehanna road came into the depot, the passengers got oil, the train run out, was switched on to a side track, and backed into the depot again. The engineer must either have miscalcula ted the distance he had to run,or the length of his train, for he backed with consider able force against the brick wall of a build ing on the east of the lot. The structure was erected in the rear of Mrs. Wachter's Hotel, Broadway, and was used as a rear entrance to that hotel from Church street, & store house, &c. The wall was a twelve inch one, and was some twenty feet high. The track terminated within a few inches of it. As the train backed down, the plat form of the rear coach struck the wall with such lorce as to knock a hole through it, when, of course, the whole structure fell. Mrs. Wachter and a domestic were at the time engaged inside, washing some clothes. Peter Myers, the bartender, a daughter and son or Mrs. Wachter, and a boy named John Wagoner were in the cen tre of the yard at the time. The bar-ten der heard the crash and observed the fal ling wall.. With considerable presence of mind, he immediately thrust the females back towards the door, thus saving them from serious injury. The two boys were covered up in the ruins, and both were bad ly hurt, young Wachter was badly cut and oruised about the head and body. The other lad was also much bruised, and his right shoulder dislocated. Dr. Staats was summoned and attended to the sufferers.— : Albany Journal. THE PRESIDENT AND PENNSYLVANIA. —The President has met with poorer success in Pennsylvania than in any other State. He has not had a single vote in the House save what he got from the Democrats, and thus far has not received the open support of a single known Republican paper. He is of course much annoyed at the barren prospect. Tha fact is, it is very hard to make a party out of patronage alone, and the eugineers of the President in Pennsyl vania find it so every honr they live. The people won't submit to being thrown into the same company with Copperheads and traitors ; and it is a poor business, even with good men, to be forced to shout for JOHNSON in the same chorus with men who made themselves hoarse calling him a black guard and a drunkard. A. J. himself be gins to Ree that he is used simply to swap one sort of Republicans for another—to turn honest men out, and put untried men into office. He finds himself pestered by all the cormorant, spavined, broken-down and cast-off politicians in the country ; and if he can be ashamed of anything, he ought to feel shame now — Philadelphia Pres*.
