Johnson Mass Meeting.— A mass meeting was held last evening at the National Hall, in re sponse to the call of the “Constitutional Union Club” to “the people who desire the preserva tion of Constitutional liberty," to “protest against the revolutionary and unconstitutional legislation of Congress, whereby the liberties of the people are being destroyed, and their dearest rights trampled upon." The ball was filled. At the appointed time Mr. W. Y. Leader nominated the following oflicers : I'RKMnEXT. Colonel Jolm S. Warner. YICK-riIESIIIESTS. iJohn W. Lynn, ! Samuel .Wright, I). D. George, A. B. Cooley, Joseph Patterson, W. C. Swann, A. J. Flomeifelt, William Schollenberger, John llulme, George Hoff. Edward E. Jones, Thornton Barnes, Gen. B. C. Crawford, Henry Brunner. i/Ar.irs. John W. Stokes. William H. Brown, Charles Sargent, i O. P. Cornman, Cant. I. L. Hitman, 1 S. E. Cohen. Mr. A. 11. Dawson was introduced as from New York, but at the outset he announced that though now of New York he was but lately from Georgia, and he proposed to discuss the effect of i ecer,t legislation upon the South. He asserted that slavery was gone beyond all hope of rein station, nnd if it was put to vote in the South to morrow, the people South would refuse to have slavery reestablished, for while it might be a proper condition for tire negro, it was destructive to the best interests of the country and the people. But while the South has lost slavery, and while her climate is the most inviting od the con tinent, her fields are a waste. Emigrants will not settle when) the writ oVtahea* corjuts Is suspended and where free men are looked upon as slaves. .The South is capable of supporting twice the number of pcop e that the North does; bore is a great field for industry and commerce crushed into the dust, when it should be encouraged to assist in meeting the expenses of the Govern ment. Now the North is comot-Ilod to take upon herself all the burden, in order that the leaders ot the lladieals shall continue in power. Develop the South and she will pay three-fourths of vour taxes. Is it not wisdom that this should be done by proper legislation ? Instead of doing this, the object seems 'to be to exasperate the people of the South, and tlioueands of her best citizens are being' driven from her borders. It is said that the South is not loyal. When the catastrophe came it did not- find the South unprepared, and thousands and thousands of them were glad of it and ready to accept peace at any price. Alter all their sufferings and priva tions the people in the South coulil not and do not wish a repetition of the strife, and they are willing to be true and loval in the future. The speaker closed with an eulogy of President Johnson. C. B. Wricht, Edward Whitney, Him. William Milhvard, Theodora Cuvier, Gcu. 1. J. Wistar, William G. Conrow, Col. John K Murphy, Edw. S. Handy,' William Baird, James S. Watson, Hon. W. F. Johnston, M. J. Lukens, is is. Kneass, Michael Ma^ue. Mr. Leader then read the following resolu tions: W’henae, War hy the Bword in our midst, has long since endea; and, Whereat', Slavery, that for forty veara and upwards engaged almost the entire attention of Congress to tlie exclusion ot legislation lor the white man, has been abolished; and, Hhtrtue, We are now no nearer peace than at the close of tie war, because of the rebellious negro-wor shipping spirit of members of Congress, who ignore legislation for the white man, and who disregard the wants of trade and commerce until they shall have succeeded Jn establishing a military dictatorship over the t-cutb. and remove the President to create a cen tralized power at Washington over the rest ot the btates to enable them to perpetuate their party in power; therefore, HtbOhtil, That as Constitutional Union men of a free republic, irrespective of party, we charge Congress with procrastinating legislation in the matter of early .restoration of the Southern States into the Union, to the end that they may carry out their settled ptVpose, to erect and establish over the white people\,r the Southern States, humbled and devastated us the*have been by war, and now hy want, by the aid of npnilipiy/ dictator, a black oligarchy, until Congress slnilljliavo ' permanently established centralized despotism, llark, deep, and damning, casting a still greater pall tnan Is now felt and experienced hy the South, and hjr the whole trade and commerce throughout this Jtmce favored land—a land made free ana independdpt by the wisdom of those sages and statesmen who regarded the ejsit-m of State and Federal governments, ns resty ing United states, llnciinicr denied that it was anything other than despotism for cither to encroach on the rights and powers of the other. Htsohtd, That, as to the tiade. and commerce of the nation, we hero emphatically say that the conr-e pursued hy representatives in 'Congress who were elected to look after the interests of the people that they fall short of that interest, as evidenced by the Conservative voters of the recent electrons; and that the only manner in which we can secure to the people of our beloved country the quickening of trade ami commerce, that the mechanic and laborer may find cmplojmentj is to tmrl from power uifii \\lio liav^ been elected ns representative-slot constituencies, who ale laboring to the end that they rrmy create a deep u government over a free p ople, by breaking faith with the pities who placed themin power. Jlesolrt(/. That, this Union must be, and remain, one ami indivisible forever, a white man's govern ment; that no power onearth can or lmlst prevent it; that the encroachments upon the Constitution as • boy are now.niade by Congress, in the enactment of unvs stripping the. Executive bead of the nation of all power and the Supreme Comt of. its right .to decide upon questions ot law; under the Constitution, is too much to he borne: and that we appeal to the people, m language not to ho misunderstood, that, if they v.ould save themselves from v assalage, they must pro test against the reckless acts of a Radical Oongro-s, who have educated tintiisulves to act oatsitleof the Constitution that they have taken ipa oath to support, and tiowdisreguid that they may perpetuate their party. Hctolrcd, That in Andrew 'Johnson, president of the United States, we recognize n champion of the people's lights under the Constitution—who", at no time iu the histoiy of his administration has been backward to a wise. just, and early restoration of the Union; in whom we recognize n defender, who. no tr utter what the odds, has never failed to plead the people's cause, under the Constitution, amid the clamors and denunciations of an overwhelming ma jority, drunk w ith lime, and thirsting tor power; who has spoken for the "truth'and doited them to their worst. In him we recognize an Executive btlicer. who, with every inducement to pander to the w icked will, and departure from principle dt the leaders , of tie party who put, him in power, thrust aside the tempta tion without a moment's hesitation, standing tohig vows and-obligations as a good citizen, a friend ot the Constitution, and a faithful sen ant of the people. In him we recognize the steadfast, true, and loyal man clear in his high ofllco--thc man who’ has steadied the toltimu in defeat and cheered it on to victory; who has made more sacritlces for the right* and the im periled litverties of the people of the United States than the history of the country, from its earliest days down totbe pre'ont time, can show. Z!(to!ra\ That we call upon the people of the State of Pennsylvania and elsewhere, to meet in their re spective districts to give an expression of their views of the present s ate of tile country, and appeal to Con gress to stav their course in party politics and attend to the interests of the country, Irrespective of the patty. Hon. W. F. Johnston was then introduced. He said;— ' . Fcl!ov>Citi:ais: I had no knowledge of this un til I arrived home this afternoon. We have passed through a rebellion and we all contended against it. There was no power to absolve the allegiance a citizen owed his government, either before or since the war. We arc one people now, we hold one destiny, and we hold one pathway, I hope the great pathway to the greatest result of any nation. I was one of those who acted warmly with those who were opposed to the rebellion, and I was just as warmly opposed to the institution of slavery. The entire people of the South have surrendered, and their highest allegiance was due to the flag under which they lived. They have acknowledged the flag, and say that thev will take ft as their own. Now, what more do the American people want? The speaker said that he did not know a better definition to give of the action of Congress, than to say the people were required by their acti* to obey them; but were al lowed iio voice. I say, l'ellow-eitizens. that in my judgment your Congress tq-duv is an in furiated mob. and they frame all these enact ments as though they would say to our Southern brethren. "Crucify him; crucify him!” , Andrew Johnson has followed the rules laid down by his predecessor, Mr. Lincoln, and has carried out the policy as laid down by the Balti more platform. Ho is a strong, iron-willed man, who is devotedly attached to the Constitution, and an original Democrat. I had the high honor to say tb Mr.'Johnson that if Congress dared im peach him it would be the greatest event of his life; and I believe it would cause the people to move in the matter, and they would triumphantly elect him President of these Uniicd States. Congress is to-day endeavoring to so trammel the Supremo Court that it will not be able to declare one act of theirs unconstitu tional, y ; ' _ _ y ; John W. Stokes, Ksip, was the nest speaker He said: This is a moment the most important to our country, and we have assembled to-night to de nounce the action oi' Congress in thwarting the President in his-endeavors to bring peace and happiness to our distracted country. The effort of Congress is to now so frame a law that they may be enabled to impeach the President. They are keeping the Southern Btates from being represented in their body that the next electiou may be carried by the Kadicals, and if they do admit any one of them that it may be so arranged that thos'e States may be carried by negro votes. The people are rising up and condemning the ac tion of Congress. Fellow-citizens, as it is grow ing late I will say no more, but move the meeting now adjourn. The assemblage then dispersed. IxTKijicsTiirti Lkctubk. —Rev. Dr. Willits gives his new and popular lecture on “The Model Home" (or a pica for marriage and domestic jovb), on Monday night, for the benefit of his old church, at the corner of Seventh and Spring- Garden streets. The proceeds of this lecture will clear this beautiful church from its last dollar of indebtedness. On this account, as well as ou the account of the intrinsic merit of the lecture, there will no doubt bo an overflowing bouse. Of the lecture, the Cleveland Leader says: “His subject—-Marriage and Home Life’—was rented in bis own inimitable style. His ideas upon social and domestic life are replete with common sense, and his felicitous manner of pre senting them, interspersed with humor.awakened Ihe keenest interest and held his auditors as if spell-bound until the close.” Boarding House Tiuki--.—A boarding-house thief, named William Dolan, with a doz.en aliases, such as Fletcher, Collins, Smith, Brown, etc., for stealiug a suit of clothes from William R. Tharp. No. if,(l North'Seeond street, and a gold watch and chain from John Curry, No. 2005 Green street, was yesterday sent to prison by Alderman Beitlcr. Dolan engaged boarding at the houses where Tharp and Curry resided, and after remaining a day of two, decamped with the property mentioned. Seriousi.y Burned.— Clara Fairchild, ten years'old, residing with her father, John Fair child, No. 1828 Richmond street, was shockingly burned yesterday afternoon, by her clothes ig uitlne from a coal fire upon which she was pour ing coal oil. The furniture in the room took fire, and damage was done to the amount of $5O, Kin Ovmt.—Last evening George Rum mel, thirteen years of age, living on Ridge avenue, near Wylie street, was run over by a sleigh at Eighteenth and Coateß street, and in jured about the head. He was removed to his residence. Tiik Riddi.e Homicide.—At six o’clock last evening, the jury in the ease of William J. Ovens, charged with the murdor of Colonel Riddle, came into Court and rendered a verdict of not guilty. Contested Ef.KC.xiON Case The contested election' case relating to the row offices was to be continued yesterday afternoon, but by reason of the counsel for the incumbents being engaged, the examination was postponed until Monday af ternoon. Few. Through a Hatchway. —Frank Devlin, aged thirty years, fell through the hatchway of Pier No. 7, Port Richmond, yesterday, and was severely injured. He wus conveyed to his home, No. 400 Carroll street. Femisylvania Legislature. CI.OSE or yesterday's eroceedinok. House.—The following bills were introduced: Mr. Josephs, rclativo to the Thirteenth and Fifteenth Btrcets Passenger Railway, as follows; Tliis bill states that the Thirteenth and Fif teenth, and Navy Yard and Broad Street, and Fairmount Railways have been merged, by agree ments, and that the public do not require tbo tracks upon Federal and Wharton streets, and Broad, and on Spring Garden, and that improves mints arc- in progress on North uud South Broad street, wbieli require an extensionol tracks north and south; therefore. ]>< ii owl-ltd, ijc.j That Hie Thirteenth and Fif teenth Streets Company be relieved of their-obli gation- to c-onstruet'tracks bii Federal, Wharton ,aa4ll>d hours, 48 minutes,' 77.7 seconds to accomplish. Third, the mol ion of the whole solar system in space; that is, the earth, with all the planets and stars, moving round what is supposed to be a central sun/ Fourth, a motion in which, through a long period of years, the poles of the earth are changed, the equatorial region in time becoming the polar region, and vice verm. | Through the influence of this motion we of i the temperate zone are gradually appi'oacli i ing the equator; indeed, it can be shown, | from history, taking a given zone, that it has become warmer as time advances. Many trees and plants—the vine and olive for in stance —flourish in places where two thousand years ago they did not grow. The change is ' so gradual and so Blow that the longest-lived being cannot perceive it, but that the climatic change takes place is very evident, neverthe less. Another evidence is adduced in the peculiarity of the animals, the remains of which have been found in the polar regions, which only could have existed when that region had a much more equatorial bearing than it has at present. The proof that tropical plants grew there is also undisputed. The bearing of ancient Christian churches, whiph were invariably built, facing east and west, but which now differ materially from those points, is saicl to be another proof of this ter restrial change. The phenomenon called the precession- of the equinoxes, in virtue of which the first point of Arles recedes upon the ecliptic of about fifty seconds in a year, gradually causes a complete change in the seasons; and, counting from any given time, there must elapse at least 21,000 yc-ars before the season can return to precisely the same period of the year. It has been ascertained, so it is as serted, that up to tile year 12 IS of the Chris tian era, a year in which the first day of win ter precisely coincided with the earth's pas sage through its perhelion, the temperature of the southern hemisphere had be.en in con stant course of diminution. And it is, more over, made plain, according to the calcula tion, that after the lapse of 10,.'.0n years the seasons on our globe will be exactly reversed. Therefore, about 10,700 years before the year 1218, or 11,000 years before the present time, it was the north pole, and not its op posite one, which was in its maximum of refrigeration: our present continents/were then submerged, according to the Mosaic ac-, count of the Deluge—not, however, chrono logically considered, if we interpret the Bible too literally, as many Who interpret it for themselves often do—and there were con tinents unknown to us in the southern hemi sphere. And again, by the same astronomi cal and natural laws, 10,700 years after the last cataclysm a new one will occur, which will again submerge the northern hemisphere, and allow a new world to emerge from the southern ocean. It is with this motion of the earth we have to deal when treating on the deluvian pheno mena. The French liude in Children. According to the Paris correspondent of the Buffalo Commercial Advertiser, the French are in the habit of buying children at Christmas time. We quote : There is a very serious business doing in one branch of-affairs, and a most serious and active competition going on in it. The de mand for “live children” is unprecedentedly great, and as the supply of the real genuine Xmas article,, in the shape of “American children,” is, of course, by no means so un limited in Paris as would be the case at home in New York, or any other large city of the Union, all sorts of devices are had recourse to by a mano'iivering mamma ts attract a large assemblage of youngsters around her Xmas tree for the special amusement of her own darlings. When the “genuine article,’’ as I have said, cannot be secured in sufficient quantities, it Can, of course, be repkeed to a certain extent by the mock production in the shape of French children. But then, these, though remarkably well dressed and tres gentits, are greatly deScient in the rollicking qualities of the true Yankee breed, and in that predisposition for “noise” which constitutes half the fame of an Xmas Tree for all who are engaged in it, whether old or young. And even French children are at a premium just nowpforwvho has not a Tree this year, from the Empress downward? Never was there known such a bewilderment of attraction. The Empress has “commanded” the attendance of I know not how many diminutive guests at 'the Tuileries to dance with the heir apparent of thei throne under the branches of a Tree too high to stand under any roof save that which covers the Salles de Mare chaux. Mtue. Drouyn de L’Huys entices an army of little ones into the splendid sa loons of her hotel in the Rue Francois pre mier. There is scarcely a minister or foreign ambassador who, through the influence of my lady, is not at thi3 moment thinking more about Xmas trees than about his despatches. How can I, then, avoid scribbling ou the subject, with such examples before my eyes? —more especially when I am myself due at this moment at a similar entertaiumeut, where our worthy representative and his lady will be the honored guests of the occasion, and where “Young America" will scream with delight in a louder tone, with more intense enjoyment, and in larger numbers, than per haps in any other house in Paris,, on the Xmas Eve of 1807. Mule Iloiiors io jLiierarrSlen. A writer in the London Review says: “Mr. Theodore Martin is about to receive the honor of knighthood. Mr. Martin, who has already the happiness to till an important and well-paid government post, is, it will be remembered, the editor, of the forthcoming second volume of Prince Albert's Biogjgphy, and has done literary service to the Queen in revising that Highland journal ot the do mestic history of royalty which is about to appear. It is for this that he is to be knighted; atad although he is a ripe German scholar as his ‘Faust’ will testify, and a good Latin ist, as his ‘Catullus’ will bear witness, we cannot regard the honor as one paid to literature. That, since the time of Addison, has never been sufficiently recognized in Eng land. Sir Walter Scott received his baro "A'SKcjf as of : the Prince Kegcnt, and the Indian service of ‘Tom Macaulay’ had more to do with his ba rony than his History—which had just noth ing; which is, indeed, about as muoh as had Lord Houghton’s titfle to do with Monckton’s Milne’s verses. In fact, the time,has at last come when state honors are rejected by learned men, and when all men look so coldly ou them that Herald’s College starves for ark of fees. Alfred Tennyson has refused a baronetcy which rewards a rich timber-mar count, and others a knighthood which any lull to a successful grocer." General Grant n Pennsylvanian by itirtti. It will certainly add to tbc popularity of the hero of the war, U. 8. Grant, to be known as a Pennsylvanian by birth, and we are glad the proof is at hand to establish the fact. The Greensburg Herald, of the Bth in stant, "claim's the General as a native of West moreland county, and thus asks for further proof (o corroborate the evidence it already lias on this subject. The following is the Jlendd's statement: - ' • ■lt may be known to but very few persons in this county that the father of General U. 8. Grant was born in Westmoreland county. The old gentleman says that is bo, and that his father's name was Noah Grant,who was a shoemaker, and lived, several miles west of Greensburg. The. old gentleman has ex pressed to Mr. Oovode a desire to visit this county. and the particular spot where he was born." Can auv«of the old settlers in Hemp field or North Ifuntingdou township have any recollection of Noah Grant,, and where he lived '! If any one cau give us information on the matter, we will see that the old gen tleman is put in possession of it. If we cun get authentic knowledge of the spot, the citi zens of the county will most likely be fa vored with a visit from the father of our General and the next President of the United States.

Tito JlcakUc Casca Special Decratch to tlft Philadelphia Evening Bulletin. Washington, January The McArdie case was called up in tlft Supreme Court, this after noon. Judge Hughes appeared and entered a motion to have the.Cbnrt dismiss the caso on the ground of want of jurisdiction. The Court sig nified its willingness to hear the argument in support of this motion, and Judge Hughes pro ceeded to stale tlie position of the case, as he said, for the information of the Court. He said that the jurisdiction of the Court ex tends onlv to cases corning up in regulaijform of appeal from the United States District? Courts, and from regularly constituted 'State hinder the acts of Congress, February fith, I«<>7, under which this case is brought up, hei main tained that the Supreme Court has no jilrisdic tion, because the statuto does not confer it. If it has no jurisdiction, the only thing to be done is to dismiss the cuse. He then proceeded to inquire Whether the terms of the act of Feb ruary Mb give any application to tbe ease, and alsowliether the late rebel States were in aucii a condition as to warrant an appeal being taken from them to the Supreme Court. The appeal in the ease was founded, lie said, upon the assumption that the reconstruction acts ol Congress were unconstitutional. That was the pivot upon which the ease turned. In support of this ho read from the.pctlUon oi McArdie, and also the return to the writ of habeas corjiun. He claimed that the purport of the reconstruction acts excludes the idea that Ihe question of recon struction wus to he a football between the United States Courts and Congress. Judge Hughes was followed by J. S. Black, who delivered a political harangue ou State Bights and the unconstitiitionality of the reeon stiueliou act. He admitted that if McArdie was legally held by the military authorities the Court has no jurisdiction. Black finished his nrgutnent at :> o’clock, when the Court adjourned, previous to which the Chief Justice announced that the case would he continued next Friday. The Mill Creek. Hull road Accident.

From Wtuliinstoita (Special Despatch to the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin.! Washington, Jan. 31.— At a meeting of the Fi nance Committee this morning nothing was done otherwise than to interchange opinions in regard to the condition of the finances and the course that ought to be taken to relieve the wants of the country and to increase the confidence in the sta bility of the government. Soon after assembling to-day the House took up the Kentucky election case of J. Y. Brown, contested by Mr. Smith, and this will probably occupy the attention of the House most of the day. The Committee reported several days ago Ibat neither party was entitled to the seat. Mr. Eliot, from the Committee on Freedmen’s Affairs, icportcd a bill to continue the Frced nicn's Bureau one year after July next, as was telegraphed you several days ago. In the Senate the Reconstruction hill is under discussion, and Senator Howe is Epeaking iu its support. This will probably be the only speech made to-day on this subject. *• l ire at Leuvciiu orili, Kansas. Leavenworth, -Jan. 31.—Four buildings on Delaware street were destroyed by fire this mora ine:.

XLth Congress—second Session. Washington, Jan. 31. Senate —The Chair laid before the Senate a lomnaunication from Edwin M. Stanton, trans mitting, in compliance with law, a list of con tracts made by officers of the Engineer Corps last Fear. Also, a joint resolution from the Ohio Legisla rescinding the Constitional Amendment. Mr. Sherman (Ohio) denied that it was a just ixpression of the will of the people of Ohio. Mr. Sumner (Mass.) followed, claiming that it '““V 1 ! 1 effect, as twenty-two States hudalreidv •atiflcil the-, amendment, and that a' State‘coulil iot. withdraw its approval once given. Mr. Johnson (Mil.) agreed that the amend nont was part of. the Constitution, but could lot agree that a Stato could not reverse its iction. The matter was - then referred to. tlie-Judiciary lommittcc. , ' , J CiV- * fb., If V 'thf? senate took up the bill in addition to theact egnlating the tenure ol certain civil offices, flic question was on Mr, Sumner's amendment iroviding that the bill shall not do away with oreign agents of the Stato Department- . ■- Mr. Patterson moved to substitute an amend nent, providing that such agents shall not ex ■ccd five in number, to be paid out of the con- Jngent fund of tl\e State Department. Mr. Stmincr, thought the Dumber should not ho restricted to 5. , • . .. Mr. Patterson thought that,Should he enough for the secret service of the government, and de , Bounced the system of employing agents on ae count of political service. Mr. Sumner suggested layin" over the bill till Monday, and that in the meantime they could in quire at the Stale Department ns to the necessary number. Mr. Anthony (R. I.) opposed such restrictions on the part of Congress. Mr. Grimes (Iowa) thought it time that Con gress resumed control of there matters, properly waived during the war. The amendment was further opposed by Messrs. Conners and Came ron, who said if we had no agent abroad we should not be called upon to pay Russia seven and u-balf millions,and buy these other countries to suit the ambition of the Secretary of State. The morning hour having expired, the bill was laid aside. On motion of Mr. Morrill (Me.),an adjournment to Monday was provided for. , ■ Mr. Morgan (N. V.) presented a preamble and resolutions of the Common Councilor Rochester, N. Y., in regard to the rights of naturalized citi zens. Referred to. the Committee on Foreign Affairs. Mr. Thayer (Nebraska) presented a petition of citizens of the District of Columbia, praying tho right of electing delegates to Congress and all other.. otllcciSfUneludlng-rneinbers of-tbe-Levy Court. Referred to the Committee on the District o 1 Columbia. ■ Mr. Johnson (Md.) gave notice that on Mon day he would press a vote on the ease of Mr. 'Jhomae, Senator elect from Maryland. Th§ Supplementary Reconstruction bill was again taken up. Mr. Howe (vVis.) a dressed the Senate, after regretting that his speech bad been delayed until the chiefs of the Republican party having spoken there was no enemy left to meet. What little political character he had achieved had come from observing and avoiding the shoals and shifting currents into which his colleague (Doolittle) had got. He thought ho had thus obained some reputation for political sagacity, The only two points these oppo nent dared make against the Republican party were, first, negro enfranchisement; and, second that they opposed the Lincoln . and Johnson policy. It was ol interest to examine that Sena tor’s views, as he made them a pretext for de serting his former principles. He quoted from Mr. Doolittle's remarks in regard to what he said in the proposed measure. ■ Hoe.sis—Mr. Dodge (Iowa) presented resolu tions of the supervisors of Folk county, lowa, in . relation to the rights of American citizens abroad. Referred to the Committee on Foreign Adairs. On motion of Mr. Blaine, the Secretary of the Treasury was directed to furnish information as to the amount of property seized lor frauds on the revenue, the amount realized therefrom and the statUß of pinding suits. Mr. Pike (Me.) asked leave to offer a resolu tion directing the Secretary of the Treasury to report immediately; why he has made no reply to the House resolution of November -Jl, 1807, relative to the employment of detectives, special agents and special inspectors. Mr. Holman find.) objected on the ground that the Secretary had not had sufficient' time to an swer that inquiry. Mr. Eggleston (Ohio) presented a joint resolu tion ol the General Assembly of the State of Ol io, withdrawing the ratification of that State to the proposed fourteenth Constitutional amend ment. refusing the same, and requesting the President, the presiding officer of the Benate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives I to return to the Governor all papers on file with either, giving the assent of the State of Ohio to' such proposed amendment. The resolution having been read in full, Mr. Eggleston moved that the resolution be printed ana referred to the Judiciary Committee. He said it was doubtful whether the parties called on for such papers had a right to return them to the Governor of Ohio. He also desired to say, in the same connection, that the Legislature of Ohio in passing such joint resolu tions had gone against the wishes of the people ol that State. That there had been recently an election in one of the Congressional districts there, where that iniquity had been presented before the people, and that the result of the elec tion was partly-owing to that action of the Legislature. / Mr.'Wasliburne (Op) suggested to Mr. Eggles ton that he modify Jiis motion so as to instruct the Judiciary Committee th report on the ques tion oi law, whether a Slate has a right to with draw its assent. Air. Eggleston adopted the suggestion, and modified the motion accordingly. He then moved the previous question. Mr. Stevens (Pa.) addressed the chair. The Speaker asked Mr. Eggleston whether he withdrew the previous question to allow, the gen tleman from Pennsylvania to make a remark. Mr. Eggleston declined, saying it was not ne cessary to speak on the question, as the resolu tions spoke for themselves. Mr. Stevens said he rose to a question of order. He did not know whether it was too late to ob ject to toe reception of toe paper. The Speaker said it was too late. It had not only been received by unanimous consent, but Its reading had been oidered bv unanimous con sent. The* reference was then agreed to yeas 110. nays3l. Mr. Wasbburne (III.), from the Committee.on Appropriations, reported the Military Academy Appropriation bill, appropriating $803,000, which was referred to the' Committee of the Whole on the State of the Union, and made the special order for Monday next. Mr. Stlye (N. Y.) presented the resolution of the Common Council of Rochester in relation to the rights of American citizens in foreign coun tries. Referred to the Committee on Foreign Affairs. Mr. Burleigh (Dakotah Territory') presented the memorials from the Legislative’ Assembly of Dakotah, for aid in the construction of railroads. Referred to the Committee on Public Lands. On motion of Mr. Clarke (Kansas), the Com mittee on Invalid Pensions was instructed to in 'lffife into the expediency of piecing the widows and children of men bilk- 1 r n the Lawrence mas sacre, in Angust, 1863, in the same relation to the pension law as if the men had been killed in the service of the United States. Mr. Eliot (Mass), from the Committee on Freedmen's Affairs, reported a bill to continue the Frecdmen’s Bureau. Ordered to be printed and recommitted. The first section provides for the continuance of the Bureau for one year after July 16,1868. The second section directs the Sec retary of War to withdraw the Bureau from the States represented in Congress, unless after con sultation with the commissioner, and upon his own examination, he is satisfied that it should be continued: pivi-idul, that the Educational division shall not be-aflected, unless suitable provision is made within tho State for the education of the children of freedmen; The second section per mits the Commissioner to apply the unexpended balance not required for the due execution of the law for educational purposes, subject to the pro visions of law applicable thereto. The fourth section permits officers of the veteran. Reserve Corps or of the volunteer service on duty under the Commissioners who have been or may ha mastered out of service, to be retained on duty when required for the proper execution of the law, with the same compensation and au thority as now conferred by law on officers of the Bureau of the same grade. Tho House then proceeded to the consideration of the Kentucky election case from the Second Congressional District. Cool Statement.
