THE WAY or LIVING AT MOUNT VERNON.
The venal coarse of a day at Mount Vernon
was something like this : The rose ,
shaved and dressed bimself,exceptmaster
that his queue
was arranged by a servant. His first visit was
so the stable. It is recorded of him that he once
applied, with his own strong right arm, a stirrup
stran to favorite soulders of a groom who had al
lowed a vt horse to stand all night in tho
sweat and dust of a ay's hunt.
some lovers of the ho d rse who willl
bethink
able to forknow
give this action without the least difficulty.
After a light breakfast of corn-cake, honey
and tea, the general would tell his guests,
if he had any, and ho usually had, to
amuse themselves in their own way till din
ner time, offering them his stables, his hunting
and fishing apparatus, his boats and his books to
their choice. Then he would mount his horse
and ride about his farms, returning . at half-past
two, in time to dress for dinner at three. Ho was
always dressed with care for this meal, as on all
other occasions of ceremony. He liked plain
dishes, drank home-brewed ale, and was particu
larly fond of baked apples, hickory nuts, and
other simple products of the country. 'lt was his
custom to sit a good while at the table after din
ner, eating nuts, sipping wine, and talking over
his hunts - and bis adventures while in service
during the French war. His usual` toast was :
"Albour friends." The evening was spent in tile
family circle around, the blazing' wood fire, and
by ten o'clo'ck lie was usually asleep.
WASHINGTON'S ORTHOGRAPHY.
Washington hiuiself, before he became a public
man,Nvas a'bad speller. People were not so par
ticular then in ouch matters ,as they are now; ..
and besides, there really was no settled system of
spelling 'a hundred years ago. When the General
wrote for '.'rheam of paper," a beaver "hatt,"
a snit of "cloatbs," and a pair of "sattin" shoes,
there was no Webster's unabridged to keep
people's spelling within bounds. Nor was he
much of a reader of books. He read a little of
the'History of England. now and , then, and a
paper from the Spectator occasionally on rainy
days; but he had no literary taste. He was essen
tially an out-of door man, and few things were
more disagreeable to him than confinement at
the desk. There was nothing in his house which
could bo called a library. He had a few old
fashioned books, which be seldom disturbed and
never read long at a time.
auts. WASHINGTON'S CURTAIN LECTURES.
The general and his wife lived happily to
gether; but it is evident that, like most heiresses,
she was a little exacting, and It is \ highly proba
ble that the great Washington Was sometimes
favored with a curtain lecture. The celebrated
authoress, -Miss Bremer, is our authority for this
surmise. She relates that a gentleman once slept
at Mount Vernon in the next room to that oc
cupied by the master and mistress of the man
sion; and when all the inmates were in bed, and
the house was still, he overheard, through the
thin partition, the voice of Mrs. Washington. Ile
could not but listen, and it was a curtain lecture
which she was giving her lord. lie had done
something during the day which she thought
ought to have been done differently. and she was
giving him her opinion iu somewhat animated
and quite decided tones. The great-man listened
in silence till she had done, and then, without a
remark upon the subject in hand, said:
"Now, good sleep to you, my dear."
What an example to husbands!
AN INCIDENT IN TILE LIFE OF MRS.-MADISON
It was during her husband's second term that
the interesting event of her life occurred. In
August, 1814, the news, came to Washington that
a British army bad lauded on the coast, within
a few hundred miles of the capital. A few days
later, the President and his cabinet were flying
towards Virginia, while Mrs. Madison sat at a
window of the Presidential mansion, listening to
the distant thunder of cannon on tho disastrous
field of Bladensburg. She held a telescope in her
bands, with which she looked anxiously down
the road by which her husband was expected to
return; but she could see nothing but squads of
militia wandering about 'without purpose or
command. At the door of the house a carriage
stood, filled with plate and papers, ready to leave
at an instant's warning. The Mayor or Washing
ton visited her in the course of that terrible atter
noon, and advised her to leave the city; but she
calmly refused, and aid she would not leave her
abode without the President's orders. A mes
senger from him at length arrived, bearing a
note, written hurriedly with a lead pencil, telling
:.her to fly.
Among the precious articles in the White
House was the fine portrait of Washington,
taken by Stewart from life. She seized a carving
knife from the table, cut the picture out of xis
frame, rolled it up, hurried with it into the car
riage, and drove away. At Georgetown, two
miles from the city, she met the President and
Cabinet, who were assembled on the banks of the
Potomac, about to cross. There was but ono lit
tle boat on the shore, in which only three per
sons at a time could trust themselves. The Presi
dent assigned to Mrs. Madison nine cavalrymen,
and directed her to meet him on the following
day at a certain tavern. sixteen miles from
Georgetown. In the dusk of the evening, she
bean her march, accompanied by two or three
ladles, while the President and his companions
were rowed across the river.
When the British forces entered the President's
house that evening they found the dinner. table
spread for forty guests, the President havin g in
vited a large dinner party for that day. I.le
wine was cooling on the sideboard; the plates
were warming by the fire; the knives, forks and
spoons were arranged upon the snowy table
cloth. In the kitchen joints of meat were roast
ing on spits before the fire; sauce-pans full of
vegetables were steaming upon the range, and
everything was in a state of forwardness for a
substantial banquet. The officers sat down to the
table, devoured the dinner, and concluded the
entertainment by setting fire to the house. It:waft
a terrible night. The capitol was burned, the
treasury building, the President's house, all the
principal public buildings and the navy yard.
It was not until the evening of the following
day, that Mrs. Madison, in the midst of a 'violent
storm of thunder, wind and rain, approached
the tavern to which the President had directed
her. He had not yet arrived, and the landlady,
terrified by the events around her had barred
the doors, and refused to admit the drenched and
exhausted ladies. The troopers were obliged to
force an entrance. Two hours later, the Presi
dent of the United States reached the house, wet,
hungry and fatigued. The landlady could pro
vide them with nothing but soma bread and cold
meat; after partaking of which they retired to a
miserable bed, not without fears that the next
morning would find them Prisoners of the Bri
tish general. It so happened, however, that the
English troops retired even more rapidly than
they had advanced, and in a few days the Presi
dent and his wife returned to Washington, which
was still smoking from the recent conflagration.
They found the best lodgings they could, and the
government was 80011 performing its accustomed
duties.
MRS. JOHN ADAMS AT COURT
Mrs. Adams, the daughter of a country minis
ter and the. wife of a Boston lawyer,was unblessed
with diamonds or laces, and was resolved not to
shine in hired jewelry or borrowed plumes. Call
ing to her aid one of the court mantua-makers,
she ordered her to prepare for her an elegant
dress, but just as devoid of ornament as the cus
tom of the court would permit. She wished
merely to avoid being disagreeably conspicuous
either for the plainness or the splendor of her
attire.
Accordingly, on the morning of the great day,
she wore a drees of white lustering (plain, thick
silk), profusely trimmed with white crape, and
festooned with lilac ribbons and white imitation
lace. In those days, hoops were as fashionable
as they are now; but the hoop-skirt,, 'undulating
to the figure, was, not then known. Mrs. Adams,
like all court dames, on that occasion wore a
veritable hoo, made of. wood, and placed near
the bottom ofthe skirt;po that a lady in full
dreee resembled a round Chinese pavillion; and
this, the snore as the waist was high up near the
armpits. A train three yards in length, caught
up into a ribbon at the left side, added, to the
stateliness of her appearance. She wore on her
wrists large late cuffs and ruffles. Her, hair,
elaborately dressed in the lofty fashion of the
day, was surmounted'by an exterteive lace cap,
withlwo long lappets hanging behind, and two
white , plumes nodding overhead. Pearl ear
ringet; a pearl necklace, and two pearl pins in her
hair; emnpleted what she called her "rigging:
If :this was the plainest drese allowed , at court,
whatMnst the most splendid have been?
P Whenlfre. Adams had finished her toilet, and
While tier daltghter was still under the hand of
the hair-dresser, We sat down and began a Jong
letter to her siotenin America, in which. sherelai
ted the eventS of the,day down to . the ma.
meat Of their leaving forAihe palace_ intending td
finish the story on her return. Vigo' may infer
from this that she was not odiously flustered at
the prospect of an Interview , with royalty. Soon
after one o'clock both ladles wore ready. The
young lady, like her mother, was dressed in white
satin, but ciflerently trimmed; and, instead of a
dress cap, she wore upon her head a kind of hat
adorned 'with three large feathers; instead of
pearls, oho had upon her hair a wreath pf flowers,
and a bunch of flowers upon her bosom. Thus
equipped, the two ladies, as Mrs. Adams thought,
presented a very creditable appearance.
Upon arriving at the palace, they were con
ducted through several rooms, all lined with
spectators, to the Quee*e Drawing Room—not
unlike in size and general appearance to the
well-known East Room, in the President's House,
at Washington. Hero they , found a large and
brilliant company assembled. There were cour
tiers and other noblemen, in magnificent cos
tume, wearing orders and nbbons, andglittering
with gems. There were young ladies, daughters
of noblemen, who were to be presented to the
royal family for the first time; these were dressed
in white and flowers, and wore no jewelry. There
were mothers in gorgeous dress, and all ablaze
with jewels. There were ambassadors clad in the
sumptuousness of continental courts, their
breasts covered with orders and medals. There,
also, were John Adams and his Secretary of Lega
tion, in their plain court dress, with their swords,
at their sides.
As the Moment approached for the entrance of
the royal family, the company arranged them
selves along the sides of the room, leaving an
open space in the middle. A door at the end of
the apartment opened, and the king entered, fol
lowed,by the ,queen and two daughters, each
attended by a lady who carried her train... ,
As there were two hundred persons present, it
required four mortal hours for the king and
queen to get round the room; during which
every one remained silent except when ad
dressed by king, queen, or princess. All were
standing; to sit down in the presence of a mon
arch were a breach of etiquette of the most un
heard-of atrocity.
At length the king approached the American
ladies.
"Mrs. Adams," said the lord in waiting.
The lady thus announced took off the glove of
her right hand; but the King, according to the
usage,•kissed her left cheek. The folloWing pro
found and interesting conversation • took place
between the King and Mrs. Adams :
The King—"lave you taken a walk to-day ?"
Mrs. Adams—(Half inclined to tell His Majesty
that she had been busy all morning getting ready
for court), "No, - sir."
The King,-;.!Why, don't you love walking ?"
Mrs. Adams—"l. am rather indolent, sir, in that
respect."
The King then bowed and passed on. The
ladies remained standing two hours longer, when
the Queen. and Princess drew near. The Queen,
a plain little body, dressed in purple and silver,
appeared embarrassed when the name of Mrs.
Adams was announced to her.
"Have you got into your new house ?" the
asked: "and pray, how do you- like the situation
of it ?"
Mrs. Adams satisfied the Queen on these points,
and the Queen resumed her progress. The Prin
cess Royal followed, 'who asked Mrs. Adams
whether she was not tired; and further remarked
that it was a very dull drawing-room that day.
Next came the Princess Augusta, who asked
Mrs. Adams whether she had ever been in Eng
land Wore. "Yes." "Ifow long ago?" Mrs.
Adams answered the question, and was avain left
to herself. She was much pleased with the easy
and cordial manners of these young ladies. They
were both dressed in "black and silver silk, with
a silver netting upon their coat, and their heads
full of diamond pins." As to the other ladies
present, she declares that most of them were
• very plain, ill shaped and ugly." Nor did she
conceive a very high opinion of the intellectual
calibre of his gracious majesty, George 111.
Macaulay's Veracity.
The London correspondent of the New York
Tribune has the following : •
The current number of The Quarterly is a
strong one. This review has survived its period
of decadence, and, under the vigorous editorship
of Mr. W. J. Smith, has regained both influence
and circulation. Its stanch defence of Tory prin•
ciples against Mr. Disraeli gives it a new hold on
the sympathies of its old friends ; not less does
its independent and often audacious handling of
literary controversies attract readers from all
sides. Once more it enters the field against
Macaulay with an article which collects into a
single thunderbolt the scattering fire of many
assailants. The style of the historian is dissected,
and its purely mechanical structure, its conven
tional trick, and the variety of its rhetoric are
mercilessly laid bare. Whatever person of
celebrity has uttered an epigram against Macau
lay is quoted with relish; whether easy-going
Lord Melbourne's complaint that Macaulay was
so cock-sure of everything, or Sir George Corn
wall Lewis's remark on the description of the
Warren Hastings trial, with the eatalvue raisovni ,
of the company,, that it smacked strongly of the
showman and the auctioneer. Worse than an,
tering defects of style is that intellectual dog
matism which made impartiality impossible to
the historian. I recollect hearing a owl or
Mitchell, who convulsed his audience by describ.
ing the great work of Macaulay as that No- Poper
Pamphlet which he calls a History of England.
It seems not less ,vulnerable to Tory than to
Popish attack. In the present article thi
old points of controversy are caught up and their
arguments restated and reinforced. The histo.
rian's elaborate caricature of the highlands is
shown to depend on a total misrepresentation of
the very evidence cited in support of its truthful
ness. We long since learned that no act of Wil
liam was so black that the brush of his eulogist
could not give it a neutral tint, nor any deed of
Marlborough so innocent that it could not be
surrounded with suspicion and made to furnish
occasion for invective. The Quarterly urges that
even if William signed the order to extirpate the
clan of Glencoe without .reading it, or even if
extirpation meant only dispersion, the re
sponsibility for the massacre is nevertheless
fixed on Aram by his subsequent approval of
it,and by the rewards conferred on those who di
rected and executed the bloody deed. The de
fence of Marlborough in the betrayal of the Brest
expedition will hardly be deemed satisfactory.
That be sent the news to the French King, even
the writer in the Quarterly admits, and his only
excuse is that he sent it too late to be of service.
Even more grotesque is the apology for Marl
borough's acceptance of £5,000 from the DIICIICM
of Cleveland, in the character of her paramour,
on the ground that the hero of Fielding's
romance received £5O from Lady Bellaston
for a similar service. The slanders of Ma
caulay upon William Penn are much more
thoroughly dealt' with. It is pointed out—and to
this . I am aware of no possible answer—tnat
although every presumption is in favor of believ
ing the letter of Sunderland to have been ad
dressed to George Penne, and not to William
Penn, the friends of the latter can afford to admit
the contrary. Grant that the offer was made to
Penn, what evidence is there that he accepted it?
The whole of Macaulay's elaborate note in the
later editions of the history, turns on the name
merely; he neither withdraws nor justified his
statement that Penn accepted the commission.
I must refer my readers to The Quarterly itself
for the reviewers' expositions on the Johnson
and Junius questions, and his demonstration of
the unsoundness of Macaulay's argument in sup
port of the claim of Sir Philip Francis. As to the
authorship of the article I cannot speak posi
tively. It is kept a profound secret, and there
fore sure to come out sooner or later. But I
conjecture that more than one hand may be
traced in it—that part is Mr. Hayward's and that
the editor wrote another part.
A Sculptor's “Finishitug” Process.
A letter from Florence,published in the Boston
dcerttser, describes the studios of the artists fin
that city, and gives the following account or Hi
ram Powers's processes:
"Mr. Powers now models all his statues in
plaster; for his busts he still uses cinnamon-col
ored American clay. As the greater part of the
latter are portraits to be steadily worked upon
until finished and cast, there aro not the same
difficulties to encounter us in modeling a statue;
but the thought frequently occurred to him that
it would be infinitely more convenient to work in
piaster altogether. Blessed with the most lu
ck:imitable perseverance and patience, after once
satisfying himself that a thing is possible no
aniount of labor deters him, and any number of
;-failures serve but to encourage him to work on
until be has succeeded in his aim.
“Adjoining his studio he has a little machine

as given birth. Ile makes all the instruments
and tools which ho uses in his, studio, and which
are of fine steel, light and delleatti, instead of the
'rather clumsy wooden ones ingeneral rise. Ho
sonfessed that but for his knowledge of mechanics
and the facilities ho had for: making Snob lustre-
Ments from time to time as herequired, he Should
never have been able to carry-the idea of model
ling In plaster to perfection, and that it was not
at all likely to be adopted by, Others, but now
that ho had overcome all the -obstacles he found
it a great advantage. He can throw down his
tools at night and leave his statue for an indefi
nite period—for years, if he chooses—then taking
them up again commences 'at the very spot he
lift, to work upon it again.
• The process as ho explained it-was very inge
nious and interesting ,to us. Ho first arranges
the lines of his figure on his movable platform of
iron bare and rods; these he fastens firmly togeth
er in place, and thus has his skeleton; he then
mixes his plaster, which before it is bard ho cuts
or .creases into blocks of different shapes- and
sizes, such as he knows he will require. Then
when they are hard he arranges them on his skel
eton, completely fastening them together with
moist plaster, which when it "sets" forms one
solid mass. This is then fashioned into a sem
blance of the future statue with more moist plas
ter; and then he goes from one process to 'ark , "
other, which I could never in this letter give an
idea of, until the beautiful thing approaches com
pletion. Ho bad proceeded slowly but satisfac
torily up to that point, when his troubles com
menced anew. He found that, however sharp a
knife, chisel or what not he used in finishing,
tiny bits would break out, or chip off, destroying
the beauty of the surface.
"After much consideration ho decided that the
only way to 'finish' was by using files, of various
shapes and sizes; he bad found the idea truly, but
in 1.156 they clogged so fast with the lime dust
that he could make but slow progress. Then it
occurred to him that they must be open files.
Files, but with a hole behind each tooth for the
dust to pass through and fall off. He made them
and they worked like a charm. I saw quantities
of them lying about, of every size and shape—
curved, straight, broad, narrow; Borne with holes
the size of a shot; others those used at the very
last to put on the fine skin-like texture, as fine
as the eye of a needle. Some are to push for
ward simply ? others only to draw backward;
some take oil the plaster in quantities, others
only a tiny dust; but his work was accomplished,
and he pursues his labors with perfect ease, and
at his leisure. The arms and head are, fastened
on in such a way that they can be removed at
pleasure, and in that way worked upon more
easily."
Oliver Cromwell's Descendants.
A correspondent of the London Times says:
"Lady Franklin Russell is a aescendant of
Frances, the Protector's fourth daughter, by her
second 'husband, Sir John Russell, of Chippeu
ham ; but the Protector is more directly represen
ted in England through the male line.
"Oliver Cromwell 's fourth son, Henry, who
was Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, married Eliza
beth,daughter of Sir Francis Russell,of Chippen
ham (sister of Sir John Russell, who married the
Lady Frances Rich nee Cromwell), and by her
had five eons, all of whom died without issue, ex
apt the second son, Henry', who had also several
sons,but only by Otie,lllB seventh son,Thomas,was
the family name banded clown. Oliver, the third
son of Thomas, and great grandson of the Lord
Protector, had two sons, who died unmarried and
one daughter, who succeeded to the Cromwell es
tate and heirlooms. This lady, the last who bore
the name of Cromwell, married Mr. Russell, of
Hereford, by whom she had four sons and four
daughters. Her children and grandchildren are,
therefore, the direct representatives of the Crom
well family,: nd possess a very valuable collection
of portraits of their ancestors for upwards of two
hundred years.
"Among these are the original picture of the
Protector by Walker, for which they have Walk
er's bill receipted; Lady Cromwell, wife of the
Lord Protector,by Sir Peter Lely; Richard Croat
well, by Walker; Cromwell, by Du Sart;
Lady Mary, wife _Henryf
the Earl of Fauconburg, by
MiUaael Dahl; Lady, Frances, by Riley, besides
many curious relics handed own from Richard
and Henry Cromwell—the Protector's swordS,
with his arms embossed thereon; the hat worn
when he dissolved the Long Parliament; the cap
worn when he was wounded at the Battle of
Naseby; his powder-horn; and, what is the most
valuable of all, a mask of the Protector's face
taken immediately after death."
HASELTINE'S PICTURE' GALLERY.—Amateurs
can hardly spend an hour more pleasantly than
in inspecting the choice collection of cabinet pic
tures amassed by Mr. Charles F. Haseltine, in the
rooms No. 922 Chestnut street, where, while
awaiting a more commodious gallery, the con
noisseur has stored theni. Selected with fastidi
ous taste, and with an eye to the furnishing and
decoration of ordinary drawing-rooms and do
mestic galleries, the purchaser has here before
Lam a miscellany of pleasant subjects, not too
large or too profound to be enjoyed, and chosen
with a knowledge and discretion upon which he
can implicitly rely.
In an agreeable ramble amongst the varied trea
sures of Mr. fiaseltine's rooms we were particu
larly attracted by the following pictures, all of
them meritorious and of modern interest: lien
rigs "View of liatisbon," a fine landscape, with
a strong effect. Joseph Bubler, a good Diissel
dorf landscape, with a lake and chalet nestling
in a fold of the Swiss Alps. J. C.-Thorn. "The
Pet Lamb," a bit of very sweet color. Th6odore
Frere, one of his luminous little eastern scenes.
Oswald Achenbach, scene in Capri, and Dolph, 'a
very fine fruit-piece, both already favorably no
ticed in our columns. Two small, exquisite
military subjects by Chr. Sell, "Outposts" and
"Reconnoitring." A roan horse in the former
and a white one • in• the latter,
are particularly excellent in design and
finish. Rieco, a girl, sitting in an attitude
of sorrow, dressed in red and relieved against
some tapestry; a dead parroquet is lying at her
feel. Fiche), a small and beautiful example, two
ladies admiring a babe whom they have snatched
frord the cradle. Chavevent, a mother with in
fant, in the action of keeping off a too-affee•
tionate dog. Lambron, a pair of small, hard,
exactly-finished pictures, very peculiar and fall
of archness; one represents a courtier, in a suit•
of yellow silk, idly playing cup-and-hall; the
companion, a court-clown, in red, with violin.
A taste is arising for these subjects, attractive
chiefly for their oddity, which corresponds with
the taste for Chinese monstrosities in the days
of Queen Anne. L. Bakalowiez, a girl, drer.sed
in white satin, examining jewels.
Our Philadelphia artist, P. Moran, does him
self a great deal of credit in his cattle piece, the
best probably belies yet achieved.
The pictures we have thus catalogued are in
everyinstance careful, legitimate and cultivated
works of art; and they form but a small propor-
Von of a gallery that is constantly renewed and
constantly full of genuine pictures. Mr. Moot
tine's advice, of which Mr. Jay Cooke gladly
availed himself a short time since in stocking his
g dlery, is a positive gain to any one desiring as
sl tune° in adorning a refined and tasteful home.

The Union Pacific Railroad Company are building a
railroad from Omaha. on the Missouri River. West, to con
nect with the Central Pacific of California, building from
Sacramento, East, and them roads, when completed, will
be THE ONLY GRAND RAILROAD BETWEEN THE
ATLANTIC AND PACIFIC COASTS.
The Union Pacific Company have already
COMPLETED 550 MILE%
and trains are now running over the highest peint of the
Rocky Mountains that will be traversed, by the line. The
Company will have a much larger torah employed this
year than ever before, and it is expected that between
800 and 900 Miles
will boin operation during 1868. There seems to bo no
reasonable doubt that the 1,721 miles between Omaha and
Sacramento will ho finished in 1870.
The means provided for the construction of this Great
National Work are ample. The United States grants its
Six,Per Cent. Bonds at the rate of from $16,000 to $48,000
pei mile, for which it takes a second lien as security, and
receives . payment to a large, if not to the full extent of its
claim in cervices. These Bonds are issued as each twenty
mile section is finished, and after it has been examined
by United States Commissioners and pronounced to be in
all respects a firet.class road, thoroughly supplied with
depots, repair-shops, stations, and all the necessary rolling
stock and Other equipments.
The United States also makes a donation of 12,600 acroe
of land along the line to the mile. which will be a source
of large revenue to the Company,
1 he Company is also •permitted to Issue its own First
MorteMge Bonds to an amount equal to the issue of the
Government and no more. Hon. E. D. Morgan and Ilan.
°Ace Amen are Trustees for the Bondholders. and de
liver the Bonds to the Company only as the work pro.
greeFee, . so that the y always represent an actual and pro.
ductive value.
The authorized capital of the Company is One Hun
dred Million Dollars, of which over eight and one•hall
millions have been paid in upon the work already done.
Contracts for the construction •of 914 miler west
from Omaha, compriaing much of the most difficult
mountain work, have been made with responsiffie partle.
at the average rate of eixty-eigh thousand and fifty
eight dcllars (H. 8,058) per mile. This price includes all
necessary car shops, depots, stations, and all other incl.
dental buildings, and also locomotives, passenger, bag.
gage and freight care, and other requisite rolling stock, to
an amount that shall not be lees than $7,50U per mile.
It is not doubted that when the road is completed the
through traffic of the only line connecting the Atlantic
and Pacific States will be large beyond precedent, and, as
there will be no competition, it can always be done at
prolitanle rates, and

It will he noticed that the Union Pacific Railroad is, it
fact, A GOVERNMENT WORK. built under the super
vision of Government officers, and to a large extent witl.
Government money, and that its bonds are issued undo ,
Government direction. It is believed that - no similar ise

House.
The bill for the admiesiOn of Arkansas was
under consideration.
Mr. WOODWARD having, by agreement, been allowed
twenty minutes, without regard to the closiag hour,
argued that Arkansas has never been out of the Onion,
that the Territory had belonged to the Federal gov
ernment, and that Arkansas herself bad repealed her
ordinance of , secession; so that , in law and in fact the
State of Arkansas was now in the Union, and vet by
the force of Federal bayonets and giving the ballot to
negroes, it was now proposed to reconstruct the State
of Arkansas. It that were reconstruction, then no
treasonable acts had ever taken place in this ootintly
which might not be styled reconstruction.
It Congress had not the right to force negro
suffrage into Pennsylvania at thopoint of the bay°.
net, what right bad Congress to do coin Arkansas ?,
Did members suppose that thepeople would support
them in such acts? Certain.W not. It 'members
were prepared would egro Constitution on Ar
kansas, they , also be required to vote a negro
reconstruction in every State,of the Union, thus sub
verting and , overthroWing by force of arms an or
ganire.l State. eTbat, was eortainlY levying war
against a State of the Union. and, therefore, they
were guilty of treason.
Mr. &ramie reanarked that , hie colleague; Mr.
Woodward, bed undertaken to prove that Arkansas
has never been out of the Union, and had then taken
twenty minutes to prove that she ethild not come' in.
[Laughter.] Ito did not understand, and would take
some time to think over it. [Laughter. ] In the
meantime, , : he would yield ten •nutes to Mr.
Paine. t
Mr. PAINE occupied ten Mintitee in replying to some
points made by Mr. Fleck in reference to the vote on
the Couatitution, arguing that the Constitution had
been adopted by a majority of 1,816 votes.
Mr. Pisa having ten minutes allowed to him, sent
to the Clerk's desk the Constitution of Arkanaas is
order to have the most important parte read. The Brat
and eighth articles having been read.
Mr. bratanato caned his attention to the provi
sion in the bill which declares that the Constitution
shall never be changed. lieVanted to know whether
Congress could fasten such a Conatitutima on the peo
ple of 'any State.
Mr. Pits said he would leave that to be answered
by Mr. Stevens.
The articles in question w4e read.
Mr. Bram. of ,Maine. asked Mr. Woodward
vhether, when Arkansas was orily admittea,
thirty-two years ago, with a constitution permitting
slavery and prohibiting the Legislature from taking
steps to abolish slavery, that was a republican form
of government?
Mr. WOODWARD thought the question irrelevant;
the government having admitted Arkansas into the
Union, the question whether she had a republican
form of government was concluded.
Mr. BLAINE remarked that if he was a lawyer he
would have said that the gentleman confessed and
avoided.
Mr. BTZVENB, of Pennsylvania, closed the debate.
Be replied to the objection as to the bill providing
that the Constitution should not be amended In cer
tain particulars, that Missouri and Michigan, and
other States. bad conditions imposed.on their admis
sion. As to the objections from members on the other
side of the House, that they were not prepared to vote
on the question, he said that if postponed for eternity,
eternity will dud them unprepared.
There had been a great clamor against Ins side of
the Mouse for keeping out those non-constructed
Maks, and now there was objection made in letting
them In. lie trusted the vote would be taken at once.
Be sent to the Secretary of State for a certificate of
Arkiinsas having adopted the amendment to the eon
etitution known as the fourteenth article, but that
gentleman had been so concerned about his domestic
and household and Cabinet affair,, and perhaps Alta
Vela (laughter), that be did not attend to it until he
(Mr. Stevens) had taken out a "rule" upon him.
Mr. ELDRIDGE moved that the House adjourn, and
called for the yeas and nays and tellers, but neither
yeas and nays or tellers were ordered, and the House
refused to adjourn.
The bill was then passed--yeas 110, nein :12, Messrs.
Baker. Loan, Spaloing, and Williams of Pennsyl
vania, Radicals, voting no. The Speaker voted yea.
Mr. Ronntson moved to amend the title so as to
make it read: "A bill to keep Arkansas as an equal
and irdependent State out of the Union unless the
p.wple submit to despotism. Rejected.
- The bill, as passed, Is as follows:
ti BUI to Admit the State of Arkaneas to Representa
tion in Congress.
ll'Aertas, The people of Arkansas, in pursnante of
the ;p' rovisions of an act entitled **An act for the more
c.filment government of the rebel States," passed March
1667, and the acts supplementary thereto, have
framed and adopted a constitution of State govern
ment which is Republican in form, and the Llisla
ture of said State has duly ratified the amendment to
the Constitution of the Lulled States proposed by the
Thirty-ninth Congress, and known as article four
teen; therefore ". .
Be it enacted (fly the Senate and House of Repre
sentatives of the United States of America, in -Con
gress assembled), That the State of Arkansas is en
titled and admitted to representation in Congress. as
one of the States of the - Union, upon the following
fundamental conditions: That the Constitution of
Arkansas shall never be so amended or changed as to
deprive any citizen or any claw of citizens of the Uni
ted States of the right to vote who are entitled to vote
by the Constitution herein recognized, except as a
punishment for such crimes as are now felonies at the
common law, whereof they shall have been duly con.
victed.
SOUTII CAROLINA
Mr. SHANKB, of Indiana. introduced a joint reeoln•
lion to deciain the officers el , :cted in South Carolina
to be the provisional government of that State. Re
ferred to the Committee on Iteconstrae.Lon.
Mr. Pattiz. from the Reconetreetion Committee,
reported a bill to admit South Carolina to represent
ation in Congress. Ordered to be printed and recom•
niltted. .
Mr. VAN WTCK, of New Yerk, from the Commit
tee on Retrenchment, offered a resolution reciting
that the Iron- clads Oneida and Catawba had been re
cently bold to Swift & Co., and that there was reason
to believe they were to be sold and delivered to the'
Peruvian government, now at war with a friendly
power, and requesting the President forthwith to or-
Ger the seizure and detention of these vesaels till the
matter can be investigated by Congress. Adopted.
BSCONSTRISCTION DEFICINICT
- .
Mr. Wasurstrafre, of Illinois, reported a bill to sup
ply a deficiency for the execution of the Reconstruc
tion laws in the Third Military District for the year
ending Jane MI, 1868. Referred to the Committee of
the Whole on the State of the Union, and made the
special order for Monday next
SHIPBUILDING. •
Mr. Pnetrs, of Maryland, got permission to make
an examination, which he deemed called for by a re
mark made yesterday by Mr. Pike in reference to the
, city of Belidmore, which had once been famous for
ber naval architecture, having to rely now upon for
-sign shipowners for her trade. Be spoke of the
steamers from Baltimore to Bremen being owned by
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company and the
Non h German Lloyd.
Mr. Pink asked him where those steamers had been
built.
Mr. rurtra admitted that, they were built on the
Clyde.
Mr. PITCH declared, triumphantly, that that fact only
confirmed his argument of yesterday. Imbecility, he
said, was the condition of the shipbuilders of Balti
more, of Philadelphia, and of New York, while there
was not a single keel laid in the great ship-yard of
William IL Webb, of Maine. Ttiey were all Imbecile,
because they were bound hand and foot with the in
famous navigation laws.
COMMITTEE OP TM WIIOLIL
Mr. Wasanuasra, of Illinois, moved to go into
Committee of the Whole, in order that his colleague,
Mr. Cook, who was about leaving the city, might de
liver a speech.
Mr. Lummox asked whether the speech had refer
ence to impeachment, if so. he would object.
Mr. Wastrnuntra said he could not answer the ques
tion. His colleague would announce the subject
when ho got the floor.
Mr. HOLMAN moved that the House adjourn. On
the motion being put there was no quorum voting,
and the Speaker appointed tellers, stating the rules
required all members present to vote, and teat there
NI as a quorum present. 4
On a division by tellers there was still no quorum
voting, the Democratic members generally remaining
hi their eeats.
The SPEAR - MR stated that the Sad announced that
by the rules all members were required to vote, but in
this case, as in others recently. ho could not enforce
his ruttig, that being a question for the House itself
after he had decided Members out of order, and the
House having full power over it. It transpired, how
seer. that Mr. Cook's intended remarks only related
incidentally to impe.achinent, and Mr. Holman there
fore, and because Mr. Cook deeired to leave the city,
withdrew the motion to adjourn.
The House, at four o'clock, went into. Committee
of the Whole on the State of the Union, Mr. Wilson,
of lowa, in the chair, and was addressed by Mr. Cook
on the policy of reconstruction, defending that of
Congress and condemning the course of the Presi
dent.
The House at Ave o'clock adiourned.
