Y.) offered &resolution that the House cherishes confidence in the President of the United' States, and in his desire to restore the Union on 'the basis of permanent- prosperity and;peace, and the co-operation of tnis House is pledged to him in - support of the general policy of recoil titruction inaugurated by him iu all modes authorized by the Constitution and consist ent with the security of republican institu tions. , A debate arising, the resolution hes oiker. • On- motion of Mr. Coriklixig (N. T.), it wax resolved that thePresidentof the United States be requested, if not, incompatible tiritli the public . interests, to communicate any report made by the JudgeAdVocate-General as to the grounds, facts and accusations on' which. Jefferson Davis Clement C. Clay, Stephen R. Mallory; and David S.A . ates, or Other of them, are held in confinement. Mr..Brandagee (Conn.) introduced .a bill, whictt was, referred to the 'Committee on theiJudietary, to punish counterfeiting with ,Mr.'Baldwin,(Mass.)inttoduced'abill au . tnori zing . the construction of a , penitentiary, Jailor honse.orectirection'in'the District 0.. Golum,biai- which , was referral to the 'Com mitteefor-the District. -- Ortitnoti4nlM'Mr.'Mottltoit(4.), a restiln tiotrwas'phalted; requesting the - President, if not incompatilale_with the public in tereets, to communicate to this House why Jefferson Davis, Who issaid to be confined at Fortress Monroe, has not been tried for treason against the Government; and, • i. 4 any, what obstacles! . are -In the - way of a speedy trial of this great criminal. On motion of,Mr.Randall,(Ry.),a resolu tion was adopted calling - for intbrmation in relation to the Imperial Express Company, organized in New Yorli_under the authority of the so-called • Eniperor of Mexico, to carry on contraband or other trade,between Mexico and the United States. %The House referred to the Committee on' Foreign Affairs the resolution heretofore offered by Mr. Van Horn, (Mo.), di recting that Committee to inquire into and report-what measures and means may be necessary,on'the - part of the United States, to restore to the Mexican people the free and unrestricted right to choose their own form of government, and of giving effect to the unanimous voice of the people of thig nation that no foreign power shall impose despotic government upon any State or people on this continent. The House referred to the Committee on Reconstruction the resolution offered by Mr. Noell (Mo.), deolaring that the House of Representatives will not exclude the members of. Congress elected in any of the States recently in rebellion, because of the fact that the negroes, as a class, were ex cluded ,from voting at the election of said members. The House proceeded to the consideration of the resolution of Mr. Eldridge ( Wis.), namely, that there is no warrant or au thority in the Constitution of the United States for any State or States to secede, and that all resolves or ordinances to that end, or for that purpose, are absolutely null and void, and that the war having defeated the attempt to thus divide and break up the Union, it is of vital importance to the re public, andto all the States thereof, that the States recently in revolt, and each and every one of them, should resume their appro priate and constitutional functions in the Union without delay, and to this end, and laying aside all party feeling and all per sonal and other animosity, waiving all minor differences, and seeking earnestly to maintain and preserve the linion of our fathers, we will cordially sustain and sup port the President in any and all constitu tional efforts in his policy of restoration, believing that thereby the political, com mercial, financial and general prosperity of the'whole .country will be most substan tially and permanently subserved.' The Speaker decided that the resolution must be referred to the Committee on Re constrUction. - Mr. Eldridge, who wanted a direct vote on his resolution, appealed from the deci sion of the Chair; but a motion was made and carried to lay the appeal on the table. Yeas, 119; nays, 28. The resolution was referred. On motion of Mr. Smith (Ky.) Mr. Fuller (Pa.) contesting the seat of Mr. Dawson, was allowed the privilege of the floor pending the subject. _ The Souse proceeded to the eonsideration of the bill h.eretofore introduced by Mr. Wilson (Iowa), extending the right of suf frage in the District of Columbia, by striking out from all laws and municipal statutes the word Mr. Wilson(lowa) moved to recommit the bill to the Committee on the Judiciary. He said the exclusive jurisdiction of Con gress over this District was unquestioned, and it was their right to exercise it. The language of the Constitution was a broad and comprehensive grant of power to pass this bill. He expressed the hope that the example now to be set will induce the States of the Union to so legislate as to develop a perfect republic. The Constitution of the United States seemed to invite the passage of this bill, and that instrument disregards distinctions entirely. Therefore let us breathe the breath of life into at least the laws of this District. Why should the color of a man's skin deprive him of the right of defence? The natural law made no dis tinction, and why should the civil? Were not man's rights as sacred in the civil Go vernment as m the absence of it? Hence to exclude negroes from civil rights finds no warrant in reason or justice. Was there, he asked, a worse governed city in the country than Washington? Where were the Union's defenders here at the breaking out of the rebellion? Fidelity to,the Government was then at low ebb, and sympathy was expressed with the rebellion. Freedom was no more hated elsewhere than here, and emancipation opposed. The social element in this District fostered a band of traitors. A few days ago a special election was held in Washington to.test the sense of the people on thesubject of negro suffrage. The friends of equal suffrage did not vote. Between six and seven thousand votes were given against the extension of suffrage. How many of them were fraudu lent he could not tell. He had no doubt a law_ majority of those loved slavery and haW freedom. They loved to vote them selves, but were not willing to extend the privilege to others. Some of the citizens were willing to surrender the charter and give up suffrage, but the remedy was not to disfranchise, but to extend the 'privi lege of suffrage to those who will use it. He would not be vindictive, but would be just. There should be no class legislation and, privileges. Let the laws be just and uniform. No traitor breathed here in this capital with a black skin. ' All the traitors, from Wirz to Davis had white faces. Three thousand five hun dred and forty-nine black- men marched from this District in defence of our country. They were true to' the GoverUment, and why should we not be true to:them? In•the course of his remarks, Mr. Wilson said that, according to the census of 1860, there were fourteen thousand three hundred and six teen persons of color 'in the District, since which time the number has been increased. They own one million two hundred and fifty thousand' dollars' worth of real estate. Their church property is valued at one hun dred and twenty-five thousand dollars. The twenty me. churches are supported at a cost of twenty thousand dollars., There,are four thousand three hundred conimunicants,and the „average church- attendance.•is nine thousand persons. He also referred to the number of schools forcolored persons,saying lour thousand in the District can read and write, and.- alluded to their literary:and Charitable institutions., Mr: Boer (Pa:) 'opposed the pending bill, not only: on special and local grounds, but on the. general principle that this' is and ought to be a whiten:lan's government. • few days 'TO a vote was taken in the two cities of this district, when the citizens 'of Washington cast six thousand' five hundred and liftpsix votes against, and'only thirty five in favor of negro suffrage. Di George town, of seven hundred and 'thirteen votes, only one was in favor of such' extension. What had the • citizens of the Districtiof Coliimbia 'done to.make them the tdctims:of such legislation? = They had' been charged with -disloyalty, and hence it was to be supposed they •were to be thus punished. R would ill becothe the House to fasten upon the people of this Distddt, a pOlitical regulation which their owit'constituents had decided to be 'a degra dation of the elisctive franchise. Men who have been reared in slavery and ignorance have been selecthd by this bill to exercise this franchise. He had material at hand to defend the people of this Distiidt from' the charge of disloyalty, namely, the records of the 'ffar Departnient,shoWingthatitt the first Call for volunteers 4,72o•thspoiided; or six tin:visas' many as the States of Maine; Verrnblit, or New"Hampshire,:or twice as many as these three . States Combined,' and a' thousand more than Massachusetts. It was isonie-' thing' to 'be loyal when rebels were within • sight of the Capital, and 'when their rrthiiit ing gun sounded in the President's mansion. The bill was intended to inaugurate th 'first actin the 'political drama to culminate in perfect equalityoftheraces.' Conetitutional amendments with this view have already been introduCtSd. The objects of the leaders of the Republican party were no longer con cealed, and if there was anything to admire it .was the ability and candor with whidb, they pressed their schemes. Mr. Hale offered an amendment : to recom mit the bill to the Committee on the Judi ciary, with instruction so to extend the right of suffrage as to confer it upon all who can read the Constitution of the- United • States, thoSe assessed for taxes on real or personal property Within the District of CO- Dambia, those who, served in and were honorably discharged from the military or naval service, and excluding from suffrage those who have • borne arms against the United States, or given aid and comfort in aid of the rebellion. Mr. Scofield (Pa.) expressed his views against the colonization of the black race, and in the course of his remarks said that the Republican party would adhere to its principles. The more we degrade the ne groes the more we, degrade ourselves, and the more we elevate ourselves the more we elevate the negroes. The cheapest and best elevator is to inspire them with self-respect, Give pie colored people free suffrage, and you awaken the ambition of the whole race throughout the United States. The pending bill should be passed to inaugurate this principle, and there was no better place than the District of Columbia to begin the work. Mr. Kelley (Pa.) said he introduced the bill now under consideration in view of the responsibility resting upon Congress. In de liberating what to ao, and how it should be done, he had consulted no popular impulses. He !had not groped his way through a murky atmosphere, but had seated himself at the feet of the father of the country, that he might, so far as suggestions go, make the bill in accordance with the principles on which they erected the Government. After saying that he only is radical who stands by the principles which :God ordained, Mr. Kelley proceeded to quote from the views of Washington and Madison, which had guided him. In reply to his colleague (Mri Boyer), he said when the war was inaugurated scarcely a good man belonging to the District of Columbia covld be found to volunteer in defence of the capitol, but men were entrap ped from other States. On the subject of suffrage, he asked if the returning rebels were given their right to vote, why should not suffrage be conferred on the colored patriots who fought for us? The President had publicly said that if he were in Ten nessee he would favor the extension of suffrage to black men, and so the Presi dent would here, as he had assured him personally. He (Mr. Kelley) would never prove such an ingrate as to deny justice to the colored defenders of their country. He spoke for an hour in defence of his posi tion, and pleaded the cause of the op presed of all lands. - The House then adjourned. BOARD OF TRADE: EDWD. C. RLD.w.,,N, SAMUEL E.

The Land of this Company consists l of 12p AGREE Heeklemberg county,North Carolina, 3Rillsiles from the town of Charlotte, on:a, branch of Sugar Creek,. which stream ihrilishai gook water power for grinding the ores. This Mine Was first opened in 1838 by amen named Carson. who worked it sucoxisibily fora , num bf years. , He died in the town of Charlotte, in 1846, worth over half a million dollars. • Two shafts have been - sunk on ibis property, one o them 80 feet, the other' 60 , feet," on different veins, averaging from two to three feet in thickness, which veins still continue on down increasing in width and richness. These shaftSare in good order, and ore can be readily taken out at any time. Other veins have been discovered on this property, and tested and proved to be very rich in gold. The ores of this mine are known as the brown ore, and very rich, yielding readily $lO per busheL This is believed tobe one of the best and most certain mines in State, on account of the abundance and quality of the ore, and ease in which it Ls obtained and reduced. This property has been worked by Major Z. A. Grier from 1840 to the breaking out of the war. This Company have purchased this property, and intend to erect machinery and put the mines hi immediate operation. The many advantagw3 of this mine over the mines of Colorado and Nevada can hardly be estimated. It is more readily reached. and has abundance of ital, with cheap labor. It can be worked all the year, and pot. as in the case of Colo redo and Nevada, be compelled to lie idle for three or lour months in consequence of the severity of the winter. This mine having been worked for a long tins proved to be a rich paying one. We do not, therefore have to Incur the risk there is In an undeveloped pro petty, but can count on large and immediate returns on the investments. Having an ore that readny yields flu per. bushel, some estimate can be made of the value of this property. With the presdnt imperfect system of mining in this locality, and absence of pro per machinery, ten tons of this ore can be taken out daily from every shaft opened. Estimating, say Is bushels to the ton, the daily yield will be 51,50 e from one shaft, allowing fall , per day for expenses. The net product win be 'fIAKI per day; counting 55(1 working days to the year, the yearly proceeds will be $360,000. which yield can be largely Increased by extending the works. This is considered a very low estimate of the capacity of this mine by experienced miners of that locality. The Assayer of the United States Mint at Charlotte, in spelling of this property, says it has few equals In productiveness in that country, and with proper management and• machinery• the above pro duct can be doubled.
