Rey: Stephen IT. Tyng, Jr., has written the
following letter to Bishop Potter since submitting,
-to the admonition of the Bishop:
"Cnuncrt OF THE, HOLY TRINITY NEW YORK,
March 14, 1868.-- 7 Right Rev. IL LL.
D. 1). C. L., (Von:— RIGHT REV. AND DEAR Sat:
I have now silently suffered all that the ecclesias
tical authorities of this diocese have desired to
inflict. Notwithstanding the allegation of
your address, I affirm, without fear of
disproval, that • from the beginning to the
end of my trial I have, neither in my pulpit,
before the public, nor though the press argued,
I
still less agitated the issues involved. should,
however, be false to candor and my independence
as a presbyter and a man, did I not now take
some notice of the ignominious ceremony to
which I have, in submission to your request, been
subjected, and the prolonged admonition and ar
gument to which I have listened from your lips.
"So soon as my Lenten engagements will per
mit, I purpose to present, both to yourself and
the public, a full and frank review of the whole
proceedings, including the language of your sen
tence.
"The Church which you chose as the scene,
the presence of the city police, the clergy whom
you selected as witnesses, the religions services
which introduced and completed the exercises,
your positive and rude refusal to receive the pro
test of my venerable and .reverend counsel and
father—all these were adapted, if not intended,
to aggravate the attempted disgrace.
"That there may be no reasonable ground for
misunderstanding, previously to the preparation
of the observations, to which I have already re
ferred, I desire now;,,and in fall consciousness of
the responsibilities which it may entail, solemnly
to protest against the Whole course, conduct, and
conclusion of the EccleSiastical trial in which I
have appeared as respondent. I hold it, as in
duty bound, to have been equally opposed to the
principles of the common law, the canons of the
Protestant Episcopal Church, and the doctrine
and discipline of Christ as this church Bath
received the same. I absolutely deny its regu
larity and renounce its authority. From its un
just presentment, oppressive rulings, predeter
mined decision and insinuating censure I appeal
to the general judgment of the Protestant Epis
copal Church, to the impartial review of the
other Christian churches of this land, to the word
of the living God and to Jesus, the chief shep
herd and bishop of us all.
"Your servant in the church,

We reterrtd recently to the effort now being
made to secure suitable accommodations for the

pletion.

up in ordinary, awaiting repairs.
The new sloop-of-war Pusinnataha is lying off
the wharf awaiting her rigging.
The Juniata is on the basin dry-dock under

GIRAR» CeLutoz ron ORPHANS.--The Board of
Directors for Girard College have published in, pam
phlet form their annual report for 1867, which was
submitted to Councils yesterday. During the year the
college has afforded Instruction and maintenance to
five hundred pupils; seventeen of its inmates have
been bound as apprentices, seven have been expelled,
lour have had their indentures cancelled, death has
removed two to another world, and forty-nine or
phans have been admitted to its benefits. The report
says that the heating apparatus in the main college
edifice was found deficient, and that measures were at
once taken to remedy the same, with great success.
There is especially needed on the premises a building,
or rather a ball, calculated to be used as a chapel, and
also to be employed for the purposes of exhibition and
for a general gathering of the pupils. The room now
devoted to this purpose is small and inconvenient,
badly ventilated, and in every respect unfitted for the
uses to which it is appropriated.
The Directors further say : Difficulty has been ex
perienced in binding out our pupils in accordance
with the terms uf Mr. Girard's will, and this difficul
ty appears to increase in consequence of the break
ing up of, the old system of apprenticeship, and the
introduction of machinery into trades which were
formerly carried on by the labor of, the hands. This
difficulty has been met hitherto by the efforts put
forth to find proper positions for our graduating pu
pils, but we cannot tall to see that in the future these
difficulties will be increased until, possibly, perma
nent situations can only be found for a few of those
desiring them, upon their reaching the age suggested
as a proper one for entering npon,the course of ap
prenticeship. When this point is reached, it will be
necessary to devise some means for harmonizing the
directions of the will with the existing order of af
lairs.

Pnrranmaquo., March lg. 1156.
FRIZIND Mums: It gives me great pleasure to say to
you, that your Ointment Is such an article that there can
be but praises bestowed upon it, when used and it becomes
known. For you well recollect how dreadfully I was
scalded in both lege by steam and' hot looter, so much so
that the flesh Caine off at least one-half inch in thickness
and by the use of your Ointment, and that alone, in a few
weeks I was entirely restored, and am now as well as
ever ,• not a muscle or leader contracted, and hardly a scar
is left. There is no telling the enema of suffering it
would relieve, if it was freely used in scalds or burns of
any kind. By referring persons to me, I can give them
ample satisfaction of the truthf einem of its qualities.
Respectfully, your friend.

AYER'S SARSAPARILLA,,
FOR PURIFYING THE
BLOOD.—The reputation this
excellent medicine enjoys is
derived from its cures, many
of which are truly marvellous.
Inveterate eases of Scrofulous
v i disease, where the system
seemedsaturated with corrup
-A tion, have been purified and
a cured by it. Scrofulous affee,
bons and disorders,' which
were aggravated by the sere
-74. MMus contamination until
they were painfully afflictin
have been radically cured in
such great numbers in almost every section of the country,
that the public scarcely need to be informed of its virtues
or MOS. _
_ _
- -
Scrofulous poison is one of the moot deetructive enemies
of our race. Often, this unseen and unfelt tenant of the
organism undermines the constitution, and invitee the at.
taca of enfeebling or Intel diseases, without exciting a
suspicion of its presence. Again, it seems to breed info°.
tisn throughout tho body, and then, on some favorable
occasion rapidly develop into one or other of its hideous
forms, either en the surface or among the vitals. In the
latter, tubercles may be suddenly deposited in the lungs
or heart, or tumors formed in the liver, or it shows

J CLOSE OF YESTERDAY'S PROCEEDINGS:I
senate.
THE VETO DU:69AM.
At 1:80 r, M. the Senate resumed legislative business,
nd took up the President's veto message, pending
t evening.
Mr. HENDIUCK9, of Indiana, took the floor. He
ad the second section. and the act of Pebrnary 5,
7, affected by it, and said the effect of that act was
1 give any citizen the right of habeas corpus when
strained of his liberty in violation of the C'onstita
on or Taws oirtrein of the Untted—Statea.--This
°toed bill repealed that provision. Why do this?
dependent or all temporary considerations or party
lone, he would like to hear remous treat the Senators
n the other side. In civil suits where 82,000 or more
•ere involved, in circuit courts, a party was allowed to
I' peal to the Supreme Cond.
In a case now, where a man's life or liberty was
volved, appeal to the Supreme Court, was dented.
he law of 1842 grew out of a controversy in'whlch
lexander McLeod was involved, aid it provided that
liens confined under a law of the Unittal States
hould have the right of appeal to the Supreme
ourt. lie would ask the Senator from Illinois
tether that did not give the right of appeal in all
camas corpus cases up to that time. He thought it
Id. He would call the Senator's attention to the
inguage of that act in connection with that of the
et of 1867.
He understood the Supreme Court to hold that the
tter act gave them the right of review of all habeas
ins cases, the language being, the seine in both
wee. If a foreigner was deprived of liberty against
le provisions of the laws of foreign , litates, ho was
'lowed an appeal to the Supreme Court under the
wof 1E42. Could Senators reconcile that with the
eprivation of that right from citizens ? The act of
.89gave the Supreme Court very limited jarisdie
on in habeas corpus cases, being only in cases In
olving their own jurisdiction.
Under this law appeal was not allowed in habeas
'rpus cases. When, however, the act of 1812 was
eased, the right of appeal in cases where individual
berty was involved, was recognized. He contended
t according to the act of 1867 these cases were
, tight in accord with the Constitution of
to United State in - providing a judicial
stem. Why keep a mate from the highest court in
e conntrrwhen his liberty was !nye yed, while he
aid go there if he bad two thousand dollars at stake.
uppOse a man on trial before a court unknown to
.e Constitution of the United States, nay decided by
e Supreme Court to he unknown to it, could Senators
concfle depriving him of the right to appeal with
rinelpies of law and justice? He deprecated the ar
nment of the astute Senator from Nevada (Mr.
towed) that the bill should paina because the Supreme
ourtwes becoming over-crowded. It was a strange
ailment for deorivirg men of individual liberty. He
ad, however, failed to point out any case in that
ourt, save the Mel'arille case, arising under this law.
strange argument for throwing oat of court one
hove life was In danger. That Senator had changed
is course greatly since two years ago, when he was
ery conservative, as would be remembered—very
uch devoted to the Pre,ident.
At this point the bill to relieve certain manufactures
om Internal tax came over from the house, and
On motion of Mr. SHU MAN the Senate non-con
red in the House amendmente, and ordered a corn
ittee of conference.
Mr. ILEr,'Dnuct centhmed his speech; and asked if
enitors knew of a single Instance where, after an ap
effete court had jurisdiction over a case that juns
letter' bed been taken away'' lie denied that it had
er been taken away. He d• tiled that it had ever
'en dom. Yet it was proposed to do that' here. He
•cited the circumstances attending the McCardle case
p to the decision of the Circuit Court of Mississippi,
at Mt•Vardie must be remanded to the military
ithorlties ; from which McCardle appealed to the
upreme Court, which he said had decided that su
Jai by military courts were illegal In time of peace,
ceardle took the position that his liberty. guaran
ed by the Censtitation, had been taken from him,
•d asked the protection of the Supreme Court under
le provisions of the Constitution for trial by jury.
i• as not that bringing, his cue directly within the
of roil% which the Senator from Illinois (Mr.
rumbell) said it was not affected? if McCardle had
njuetly criticised Congress, what crime had he em
itted other than a libel, in regard to which the Sc.
reme Court acid there should be a constitutional
ial ? This was denied him, although a foreigner
as allowed an apt eel to the Supreme Court. Sup
ose a citizen of Indiana went din to Mississippi
d committed what a military tribilistal chose to con
der an offenee, and then appealed to. the Circuit
ourt fora pry trial, now the right of appeal from
• e decision of that Court, sending him back to a
.ilitary dungeon, was to 1/0 denied to .the Supreme
our, an appeal which had been thought necessary
My last year.
It he Mr. Hendricks) had occasion t0...g0 South,
ed expressed himself, as he doubtless 'would if be'
xpressed himself at all, - in hostility to the policy of,
ongrese would Senators say that, it ho were arrested
y the military antlaorities, and appealed to the Su
reme Court, he should be sent back to the dungeon?
'by was it that they were not willing that the tln
reMe Conn ehonld pass upon their legislation?
fore than half of the people of the United titaness h.ad
pressed their opinion azainst the constitutionality
their legislation, yet they talked about all the peo
le of the United Statee. • •
They bad establiehect a system of despotism in the
Guth more .odlouti than ever was established by
,yrt.att. though be whipped women in the streets.
'hen Senators 'denied the constitutional right of
al by jury, and made a law providing for a trial by a
ilitary tribunal, was it not of necessity a case for
• a Sapneue Court to decide which was the law? It
ns an effort to strike down the Judiciary as the Ex
utive had been stricken down in the lest year. Do
,at, and all the power of the country was in the
ands of one department of the government. Wtre
'ere not five Judges out of the eight whom Lincoln
Dv:tinted and' they confirmed, with Mr. Chase, a
artyleader, at their head? Ye: Senators could not
;ek having their legislation reviewed by that tribunal
their own organization when the liberty of a citi
en was Involved. When he voted for a law he did so
. the expectation that it would stand all tests,' in
lcding that of the Supreme Court. Chief Justices
tar•+ha!t and Taney coincided in that view.
Some Senator—".end Jefferson! '
Mr. llatiosidis said be would not quote poll
icians, but the big! est indicial authorities, and went
111 to Pay that one department of the government
hould be a check nom another, within the sphere of
he Constitution. If this was a partisan question,
castors coald vote for themselves. Ile would not
eta for alto that would not stand judicial teats. Ile
curetted tint no more time had berm allowed for dis
usalon on this bill, and that he had not therefore
evil better prepared. .
Mr. STEigAIIT said it appeared the rights of man
ere verymuch involved in this bill, though the ao
,eal to tte Supreme Court bad linen dispensed with
or tiner....qmuters of a century until last year. Mc
',odic, laving committed an offense taken cognir.-
ice el by the military authorities, teas arrested,
rind, Lad then allowed to go on hail, and he certainly
vat nut therefore laboring under very great disaolli
lea . He (IHr. Stew,irt) had in that view made refer
•uce I' the Supreme Court being overburdened with
risititss. It was,as much beyond the power of the
'upre•me Court to hinder reconstrnction as it was

was the object, that would be unparliamentary, but
the effect was to conceal its purpose, when there
should have been disclosure. Ilills lige this were
not to be peened on party grounds. It would not
comport with the dignity of the Senate.
The Constitution assumed that Congress would eP•
tablieh 'n Supreme Court, Ile hoped they were not
coming upon tines when the Supreme Court was to
be abolished, useful as it has been to the preservation
of all the institutions of the nation. When it was
claimed that the Supreme Court had become subjected
to political influences, it must he admitted that our
formed government is a failure. The Senator from
Nevada (Mr. Stewart) had intimated that a political
question was Involved here.
Mr. STEWAIIT asked if this was not a political gees.
don, whether it Is not for the political department of
the government to determine who are public enemies.
Mr. Jonnson said the Senator had not thrown much
additional light on the subject by that remark. The
Supreme Court must hold to their authority to decide
upon the constitutionality of laws or prove recreant
to their oaths. If Congress were left totally unre
strained deapotism would certainly result. De Toc
queville, who seemed to /understand us better than
any writer of our own, based his opinion of the great
security of our individual citizens upon the fact that
we have a Supreme Court. There are but two great
powers. force and law—law whose voice Homer said.
"is the harmony of the world." In view of the haste
shown in the passage of the bill,would not the histo
rian say that "it was to avoid the decision of the Su
preme Court?" Upon the legislation of Congress,
Ile was glad to believe that if the law was pissed
130 such decision would be made, but he would be
more glad if they were to leave this question to the
Supteme Court, whoa, if they decided the legislation
unconstitutional, Congress would have the gratifica
tion of knowing they were acting within the Conell-
Intion. The conflicts of to-day would soon be for
gotten, and those who came after us would ace that to
that institution we owe the safety and prosperity of
the past and our hopes of the future.
Mr. Sacuosuriv. of Delaware, after referring to the
great privilege of the habeas corpus, asked what Con
greFs was engaged in to day? To reach one solitary
case they were seeking to repeal this inestimable priv
ilege--legislating against liberty and perional liberty.
Let them go and confess before their people that
greater liberty existed under the English crown than
in the American nation.
Let them admit in fourth of July orations that the
liberty which an. English king could not overthrow
has been taken away by an American Congress. When
the legislative power assumed all authority. stripping
the Executive and Judiciary of all power, their free
dom would be denied to every American citizen, as
well as to McCardle. It was evident that Senat ars on
the other side intended to pass this bill, but if Con
gress insisted on keeping the leaden cloud of despot
ism over the South, God helping them, they , would
appeal to the high court of the people in :November
next, which would set aside its-verdict.
Mr. BAYABII. of Delaware. had not thought it pos
sible that the Senate of the United States \you'd pass
a retroactive law, divesting the rights of any citizen.
He quoted Kent, Mansfield, and other authorities on
the points, and said he had been of (minion that in
this country, above any other, no bill denying this
great right could be passed. It was evident, however,
that this bill would be passed, not by a constitutional,
lint by a partisan majority. He recited the circum
stances attending the passage of the bill in the House,
and said decorum only prevented his characterizing
it as in his opinion it deserved.
He condemned, too. the hurried manner in which
the message , had been forced on their consideration
by an overpowering majority, before it was even
printed, when a large number of the Senate were not
apprised of the character of the bill as passed. lie
regretted be hear the language of the distinguished
Senator from Maine (Mr. Fessenden), yesterday, in
saying that on that side they did not need to discuss
it, but were prepared to vote. It was evident that his
(Mr. Bayarefelprotest against it would be fruitless.
The amemdment did not repeal the jurisdiction of
circuit courts, but took away the right of appeal to
the highest tribunal of the land.
In his opinion, the contrast between the bill as it
originally passed the Senate and, the amendments
subsequently adopted b y the House was enough to
condemn it: 'They Caine into absolute conflict with
each other. The same bill authorized an appeal in
eases of property, which would add twenty cases to
the docket for one that would be added by this propo
sition for the protection of liberty and tie, showing
the inconsistency of the argument of the Senator
from Nevada (Mx. Stewart). that the repeal, should be
made because of the press of business in the Supreme
Court.
Bad it come to this that the rights of property
were to be protected, but not those of life and liberty
The inference was that the Senator could find no
better argument. Why was the retrospective dense
introduced it it was not sought in McCardle's case, to
supplement the argument by legislation? The Sena
tor from Illinois (Mr. Trumbull), had told them they
had existed since 17,9 without this law, and could
probably exist w ithont it:
It might be unimportant, but the great objeet!od
was that it was retrospective in its action. It violator
a giest general principle, recognized even by the Ho
man Emperors. and now recognizd by the law of
imperial France. lle had not examined the SicUardle
case, and had but limited knowledge of it, but there
could be no question that this bill contemplated dr
vestim,' him of an acquired civil right which, accord
ing to Chancellor Kent, was condemned by the laws
of all civilized nations.
It was nothing more if passed than stamping out
the exisilng rights of American citizens. He had no
hope that it would be considered without reference to
party. Thew yet remained two remed , es. It might
be thet the Supreme Court would decide that the bill
dues not ripply to cases already docked before it and
already filed. Were he a judge Of that. Court, he
should not hesitate on that nuestion; he would pro
nonrcehla deci-ion upon the law as it stood beforo
this bill was passed, and subsequently dii-inlssing the
appeal denying the relief asked for. If the object was
to preserve the miscalled reconstruction acts. and tie
!.aiv no other, toe bhi was a political order. Such leg
islation would be highly injurious to any party at.
tempting it. 'The people would regard it as equiva
lent to it decision by the Supreme Court that those
laws were unconstitutional: Re was one of those
who loved civil liberty, and he prayed God that he
would not live to Fee the country at the mercy of the
will of a singleindlvidual or of a congregation of indi
viduals.
Idr. PrexALEw, of Pennsylvania, called attention
to the singular fact that the debate had been all on
one side thus far. He also alluded to the circum
stances under which the bill wme passed. The bill was
announced by the Senator from Illinois (Mr. Tram
bull) as being totally harmless so far as the the Mc-
Curdle case le concerned, but the member who offered
the amendment avowed his intention to be to remove
that case from thejurisdiction of the Supreme Court,
and the member who had charge of that biQ applauded
that purpose. • It was fair to assume that the bill was
intended to take away the existing Mrlediction of the
Supreme Court in such cases, and the denial of the
Senator was feeble and futile.
He adverted to the circumstances out of which
aroso the act of 1867. Many cases having been decided
by the Freedmen's Bureau, as well as by the State
coal ts, it was felt to be desirable to have uniformity
of action. Only a year had elapsed since the
enactment of the law, and they now protested against
the repeal of a provision of that law securing per
sonal liberty. 3.'hat provision was found to be neces
sary now, especially because Congress had undertaken
power never before assumed by them. It was neces
sary, therefore, to clothe the Judicial Department
with commensurate power.
At this point. 4:30 p. - 31., Mr. FE3SENDEN suggested
that an agreement be made to talc() the vote at one
o'clock to morrow, as many Senators did not desire to
sit out the diecusslOn.
Mr. Bucarai.aw had no objection.
Mr. licennzicr, of Kentucky, proposed a recess till
to-morrow ac ten o'clock.
After some talk on this point,
MVortiumti smtgested that no other legislation be
taken up to-night but this bill.
Mr. Buckarzw--I would certainly object to any
House amendrpont being acted upon. [l.aughter.l
Mr. lIENDICIbriS would agree to any , understanding
that Ivonld enable Senators to go home. He did no;
desire to Fpeak to empty benches.
Mr. booltaLkw continued. and said the law had
been framed for the protection of the freedmen and
others from the operation of State laws; but such
was the imperfection of human language that the law
was forced to apply as t wsil to the rights_of whittle, as
It was unfortunate that the laws could not be framed
so as altvays to favor our friends, but the nature of
jubilee was such that friend and foe must be alike
affected by the laws which we enact. It was, there.
fore, no objection to the law of 18(f7 that it could be
invoked by a man not belonging to the class for
whore benefit it had been framed. This law was to be
repealed, in order to prevent the demolition of the
recoretruction acts by the Supreme Court. What a
spectacle it WM, that"a single humble individual
dwelling ou the banks of the Mississippi,
could carry the passers of this, bill with all their
power and influence, into the Supreme Court, and
there, by the simple force of law or reason and eight,
perchance overcome and demolish their boasted work
of sc4called reconstruction.
In the coarse of hie' remarks he eulogized the law
and the august tribnnals of justice, whose power in

Mr. BOOKALEW resumed hie remarks, and spoke of
the mariner in which the Supreme Court as it now ex-

lion which at one time , increased the number of jus
tices to ten, and •afterwards, for merely political

And why, he whet], is that, bill allowed to slumber

purpose; for two-thirds even of the Court which you
have constituted will not uphold you in your unjust,
unconstitutional legislation. He quoted the declara
tion of Madison, that the great danger to our institu
tions lay In the tendency of Congress to encroach
upon the other departments of the government, and
maintained that. the action of this Congress had been
to strip both of them of their more important prerog

Mr. WasilnlMNE, or. Illinois. called the motion made
on February 26 by Mr Washburn, of Wisconsin, to
reonsider the vote by which a letter from the Secre
tory of. the Treasury. relative to the Union Pacific
Railroad, was ordered to he printed. Ile congratu
lated his friend from lowa (Hr. Price)'on his success
to preventing him (Mr, Washburne) being heard this
morning on this Pacific Railroad matter, but now•he
had an Dour to discuss the question. Part of the
time he could now yield to the gentleman from Wis
consin.
Mr. Wasn't:l:mi, of Wisconsin, said the .country
would notice the fact that nO , ,thanits were due to the
Louse for his being able to male au explanationnow,
which-he had wished to make Arilvailtie matter was
up before. It was simply due to the fact that he had
the foresight some time since to move to reconsider
Inc vote referring the Vecretary's letter on the subject,
thinking that just such an occasion might come up.
ile disclaimed any intention of imputing improper
motives to i he . gentleman from lowa (Mr. Price), who
had telt. probably, as he himself had felt, that tue
Pacific Riulroad was a necessity. The bill of 1864
was a very improperly guarded bill, in which every
re-friction for the protection of the people that was
«mtalned in the art of 1662 was wiped oat.
fie saw by this morning's Chronicle that there was
another scheme on foot to build a Pacific Railroad
trout Cairo, through Arkanas and New Mexico, and
he helloed that this and other Pacific Railroad
schemes now on foot would require two hundred or
two hundred and fifty millions in subsidies. Re
telling to the Sioux City Railroad, he asked the
gentleman from Minnesota (Mr. Windom) whether he
M.a consented to any change in the law by which that
toad Wll O 3 to be built in any other manner titan pro
% Med in the act of 16(11?
- -
Mr. Wlmoot replied that he never had consented
to any such alteration, and one of the chief corn--
' , taints he bad to matte against the Union Pacific
1:Hill - kind Company was that it had, by means nn
l.nos.,,n to him, procured that alteration. He had
t. en one of two or three who bad insitted on having
e condition As to the Sioux City road put to the act
of 1167.
Mr. A1.1.1-ON remarked that ho had stated yesterday
his belief that the Minnesota delegation was in favor
the change. but he had been Informed by the pu
nt ratan from Minnesota (Mr. Windom) that he had
et favored It. He would. however, call upon the
.11:lineup of the Pacific Railroad Committee to state
e. Miller the Minnesota delegation had not pressed
upon that commit tee the exact change made in refer
ence to the Sioux City branch.
Mr. WASHBURN, or Wisconsin, declined to yield for
that purpose. and proceeded with his remarks.
Mr. WAEHBUBSE. of Illinois, said that atter the ex
traoldintiry developments touching the Union Pacidc
lfa Company, as to the character of the c,om
oany, the gigantic power it is commencing to exer
ei-e. its extortions from, and oppressions of. the
people, and atter the disclosure of the alleged illegal,
if not fraudulent, issue of more than a million of goy
-eminent funds, to enable a priv4te; company to build
railroad in the State of lowa, in a southeast three.
trot, under the pretext of building a Pacific Railroad,
the question had become one of national importance,
I.lal would attract universal attention.
Mr. Washlturne then entered into a history of the
passage of the amendatory act of the Pacific Railroad
company in Thal. He alleged that all amendments'
were Noted down which proposed to protect in any ,
eay the public interests. and that the bill waa carried
through b the influence of the gentleman from
lowa tMr. Price), and the gentleman from Pennsyl
vania (Mr. Stevens). No man who was present in the
House in the night session in which the bill was con
sidered, in June, IS6I, could ever forget the extraor
dinary scene then presented. The lobby mustered in
lull force, to say nothing of the allegations of expen
ditures in -a confidential way. The scene was one of
the most animated and exciting ho had ever wit
nessed in a service of nearly sixteen years in the
Douse
7 be galleries were packed by lobbyists, male and fe
male, and by shyster& and adventurers, hoping for
something to turn up, The gilded corridors of the
House were filled with lobbyists, who broke through
all rules, and made their way upon the floor of the
Bonn and into the seats of the members. In a speech
made on that occasion he had challenged the various
provisions of the bill, and had shown its extraordinary
character, and particularly the provision which
subordinated the lien tine government held as security,
for the vast amount of bonds it had become liable for.
Re bad asked in that speech who was dull enough
to believe that, should the proposed provision of the
law of 1861 become a law, the remaining security of
the government would be worth a straw? That it was
worse than idle to contend that any security was left
for all the government's liability. But the Rouse re
fused to adopt any amendment refusing to subordi
nate the government security, by a vote of 88 to :a,
and the bill was finally passed. On the report of the
committee of conference the House refused the yeas
and nays, and there is no record of any final vote. He
had told the story of the legislation of the 110E180 on
the Pacific Railroad bill of 1864, as it would go into
the history of the country.
In conclusion, Mr. Washbnrne yielded three min
utes to Mr. Patton, and then ho moved to lay the mo
tion to reconsider on the table, which was agreed to.

sired to reply, but Mr. Kelley declined to yield the
floor for that purpose, remarking that his colleague
was like the Irishman at Donnybrook Fair—whenever
he saw a, negro's head he was bound to have a clip at
it. (Laughter. 1
In the name of republicanism he asked Congress to
admit Alabarr a, and to proclaim• to every refractory
rebel in the South, and to every timid Union man,
t hat every State thati will bring a constitution provid
ing, as that of Alabama did. for the right of every man
to hold land and to vote and to exercise all other po
litical rights, will be admitted, even though terror and
the threatsof clandestine lynching and hanging may
have kept some of them from the polls.
Mr. STEVENS, of Pennsylvania, offered an amend
ment providing that the right of suffrage shall not be
denied or abridged in any State, except for treason,
felony, or other crime infamona at common law, but
that suffrage shall forever be universal and impartial,
and that Congress ehall have power to annul any act
of Alabama in violation or derogation of the acts
with regard to suffrage, and that in case of the Legis
lature reducing suffrage below the universal right, all
legislation admitting it into the Union shall be null
and void.
Mr. FALLNBWORTII gave notice that he would move
the previous question at 3:30 to-morrow, and ask a
vote at 4:30 r. at.
Mr. PAINE, of Wisconsin, _presented a memorial of
