AEU I'IMBLICAIOIOIIIS. FRAN K LIN'S At:a 0 MOO RA El 11, 1 RESTORED n Ma. Bioxtow.—As the most winning bit of con fildential diary in American , theist - tures-the lt earliest self-revelation committed to public Charity by any public man since Machiavel turned himself inside out in the "Principe"—and 'the easiest bit of pictorial prose since some of the detailed work of De Foe—the fragment of Autobiography left by Franklin will retain its interest in the literature of free thought as long as men like philosophy and as long as philoso phers are men. The world must travel many a time around its orbit, the advance of empire may develop upon more than one now barbarous shore before the simple times shall form again in which a man of talent may combine at once the qualities of Cincinnatus, Roger Bacon, Talley rand and Rousseau--be at once patriot, diplo matist. athlete, epigrammatist, fireman, savan and prattler. When such a man yields to the gossipy inclina tion which forms an essential side of his nature, and tells, with inimitable simplicity, a part of his story to, first the family and then the public, everybody is bound to listen to the homely en chantment; and as time rolls forward and man ners lose much of the primitive naïve graces / there is more and more of a craving for the rode exactitude of the original tale, with all its smack of pioneer times and half-achieved self-cialture. So that the day nas already come, although the republic' of Franklin is yet in its infaupy, for relishing the fac-simile of this Biography such as the editor presents it, with all its energetic errors . in its head, with its courageous slang,' and its contemptuous inconsistencies in ortho graphsl. Mr. Bigelow's feat, • stripped of the natural cackle with which men arc prone to magnify their office, is simply this. While serving his country as Minister to France, and living in the neighbor hotid Of the Arch of Triumph of the Star at Paris, within. a few minutes' time from his great prede ceSear's residence at Passy, Mr. Bigelow formed the acquaintance of Mons. P. de Senermont, collateral descendant of le Veillard, the Mayor of Passy at the time of Franklin's sojourn there, This gentleman, aware of the scholarly procllvi tied'of the Minister, committed to his hands a parcel consisting of two or three items : a book of faded manuscript,which was nothing less than the original manuscript of Franklin, as presented by him to his old friend, the Mayor of Passy; a sheet of memoranda; and a portrait in pastel, drawn by Duplessis in 1783, during the residence of Franklin at Passy. The natural result of this committal is the republica tion of the MS. with antiquarian fidelity, accom panied by a copy of - the portrait and all the memo randa; and a little history of the transaction, which explains in . a few words how it is that the world of literature has been defrauded for half a century of the legitimate text of this most fas cinating of journals. Franklin died X590.\ The earliest issue of the autobiography was in French, in 1791—the ac quisition of the MS. by the, translator; Gibelin, being an unsolved mystery; a retranslation of this into English was published in 1793, being the first copy issued in our language. This translated translation was not only the sole English version in print for a quarter 'of" a century, but continues to this day to be republished by some of the largest houses, not only in Europe but in America, under the impression that it is both genuine and com plete. Twenty-seven years after the philosopher's death his grandson, William Temple Franklin, publishes the 1817 edition, heretofore unim peached as the standard authority. This grand son (eon of William Franklin, the Governor of ..New Jersey, to whom the MB. la addressed; who was a Tory and British pensioner,) comes out with his grandfather's autobiography after a de lay that may possibly be explained by considera tions of a corrupt nature. The grandson, in pre paring the text for the public, interpolates an ad dress to his'own father, with the style of "Gov ernor of New Jersey," whence it happens that the first phrase of the current autobiography of Franklin was not written by Franklin. Directly after this decorous editor suppresses the fact that his great uncle John had been a dyer, and that the autobiographer had been named after an uncle Benjamin, "there being a particular affec tion between him and my father." These family reserves attended to, he prints the memoir pretty ranch as it stands, only with a constant and pro voking succession of euphemisms and emascula tion& When the writer is vigorous and Saxon, then the compiler is shocked and solemn. Rei mer "Used like a pig poison'd," says the MS.. `'stared with astonishment," says tile print; Collin eacquir'd a habit of sotting with brandy;"says the MS.; "drinking of brandy," says decorum; t 4 he same poor printing devil's "dramming" becomes `‘dram drinking;" and the other compositors, instead of "guzzlere of beer," are "drinkers of beer." But this cella° princeps of 1817, explains Mr. Bigelow, was not printed from the original MBB., but from a copy. The evidence of this is found in an omission of the last eight pages. Besides this, on the fly leaves of the autograph is in scribed a memorandum in French and English, in the presumed handwriting of the do Sonar mont family. From this we learn that Temple Franklin obtained from the widow le Veillard "the correct and tine copy given by hi., grand fat her," as more convenient for the printer. "If I give it you," said the widow of Frank lin's old neighbor, "I shall have nothing more of our friend." "I will give you," replied William Temple Franklin, "in place of the copy, the original manuscript of my grandfather." This "original manuscript" remained in the de Senarmont family until the gift of it, last yea:r, to Mr. Bigelow. The gains to the reader, then, are just those: a pure text ; an amusing sketch of the completed memoir,as contemplated by Franklin; eight pages more of the memoir itself, describing Franklin's mission to London in 1757 with a petition from the Provincial Deputies about the disputed taxes; and a new portrait. tie sketch or outline of the work as it was to be Is peculiarly satisfying, as it shows which points in Franklin's existence 'were regarded by him gm the capital ones, with many a dry com ment thrown Into a word, in fact the whole his tory of a life of ups and downs condensed by a sort of stenography to a paragraph. We should like to print this synopsis entire ; but in suitable economy of space we will omit the portion re lating to the memoir as we have it, and simply copy the sketch of the rest of the autobiography us it existed in the plan of the writer, showing the topics intended to be treated of, quite down to the conclusion of Franklin's diplomatic career.

Treaty, &e."• The first words we have quoted ("I am sent to England. Negotiation there:") of this schedule, were expanded to eight pages of the MS., added thereto after the copy was made from which the ordinary edition is printed; this supplement, still in the writing of Franklin, shows a sudden un steadiness of hand, the imprint of his pain. We cannot forbear quoting his account of these tax disputes, the forerunners of the Revolution. It was written in the last year of Franklin's life, and now for the first time sees the light in English print: "As soon as I was settled in a lodging . Mr. Charles bad provided for me, I went to 'visit Dr. Fothergill, to whom I was strongly recom mended, and whose counsel respecting my pro ceedings I was advis'd to obtain. He was against an immediate complaint to government, and thonhht the proprietaries should first be per 80Dany appli'd to, who might possibly be induc'd by the interposition and persuasion of some pri vate friends, to accommodate matters amicably. I then waited on my old. friend and correspon dent, Mr. Peter Collinson,who told me that John Banbury, the great Virginia merchant, had re quested to be informed when I should arrive,that he might carry me to Lord Granville's, who was then Presider' t of the Council and wished to see me as soon as possible. I agreed to go with him the next morning. Accordingly Mr. El aribury called for me and took me in his carriage to that no bleman's, who received me with great civility ; and after some questions respecting the present state of affairs in America and discourse there upon, he said to me : "You Americans have wrong ideas of the nature of your con stitution ; you contend that the king's in structions to his governors are not laws, and think yourselves at liberty to regard or disregard them at your own discretion. But those instruc tions are not like the pocket instructions given to a minister going abroad, for regulating his con duct in some trifling point of ceremony. They are first drawn up by judges learned in the laws; they are then considered, debated, and perhaps amended in Council, after which they are signed by the king. They are then, so far as they relate to you, the law of the land, for the king is the LEGISLATOR or THE (COLONIES." I told his lord ship this was new doctrine to me. I had always understood from our charters that our laws were to be made by our Asscmblies,to be presented in deed to the king for his royal assent, but that be ing once, given the king could not repeal or alter them.. And as the Assemblies could not make permanent laws without his assent, so neither could he make a law for them without theirs. He tinned me I was totally mistaken. I did not think so however, and his lordship's conversa tion having a little alarmed inn as to what might be the sentiments of the court concerning us, I wrote it down as soon as I return'd to my lodginge. I recollected that about 20 years be fore, a clause in a bill brought into Parliament by the ministry had proposed to make the king's instructions laws in the colonies, but the clause was thrown out by the Commons, for which we adored them as our friends and friends of liberty, till by their conduct towards us in 1765 it seemed that they had refused that point of sovereignty to the king only that they might reserve it for themselves. After some days, Dr. Fothergill having spoken to the proprietaries, they agreed to a meeting with me at Mr. T. Penn's house in Spring Gar den. The conversation at first consisted of mutual declarations of disposition to reasonable accommodations, but I suppose each party had its own ideas of what should be meant by rea sonable. We then went into consideration of our several points of complaint, which I enumerated. Tee proprietaries justify'd their conduct as well as they could, and 1 the Assembly's. We now appeared very wide, and so far from each other in our opinions as to discourage all hope of agreement. However, It was concluded that I should give them the heads of our complaints in writing, and they promis'd then to consider them. 1 did so soon after, but theyput the paper into the hands of their solicitor Ferdinand John Paris, who managed for them all their law business in their great suit with the neighboring proprietary of Maryland, Lord Baltimore, which had subsis ted seventy years, and wrote for theta all their papers and messages in their dispute with the Assembly. He was a proud, angry man, and as I had occasionally in the answers of the Assem bly treated hie papers with some severity, OAT being really weak in point bf argument and haughty in expression, he had, con ceived a mortal enmity to 'me, which discovering itself whenever wo met, I declined the proprie tary's propbeal that he and I should discuss the heads of complaint between our two selves, and reined treating with any one of them. They then by his advice put the paper into the hands of the Attorney and Solicitor-General for their opinion and counsel upon it, where it lay, unanswered a year wanting eight,days, during which time I made frequent dmands of an answer from the proprietaries, but without obtaining any other than that they had not yet received the opinion of the Attorney and Solicitor-General. What it was when they did receive it Inever learnt, for they did not commu nicate it to me, but sent a long message to the Assembly drawn and signed by Paris, reciting my paper, complaining of its want of formality, as a rudeness on my part, and giving a flimsy justification of their conduct, add ing that they should be willing to accommodate matters if the Assembly would send out some per son of candour to treat with them for that purpose, intimating thereby that I was not such. "The want of formality or rudeness was, prob ably, my not having address'd the paper to them with their assum'd titles of True and Absolute Proprietaries of the Province of Pennsylvania, which I othitted - as not thinking it necessary in a paper, the intention of which was only to reduce to a certainty by writing, what in conversation I had delivered viva voce. "But during this delay, the Assembly having prevailed with Governor Denny to pass an act taxing the proprietary estate ,in sommon with the estates of the people, Which was the grand point in dispute, they, omitted answering the message. "When this act however came over, the pro prietaries, counselled by Paris, determined to Oppose its receiving the royal assent. Accordingly they petitioned the king in Connell, and a hearing was appointed in which two lawyers were employed, by them against the act, and two by me in support of it. They alledg'd that the act was, intended to load the proprietary estate in order tei spare` those of the people, and that if it wore stiffeed to continue in force, and the proprietaries who Were in odium with the people, left to their' nierey in proportioning the taxes; they woitid. inevitably be ruined. We reply'd that the net had no ouch intention, and would hnitp 'no such effect. That the assessors'were honest and, *erect men ender an bath to assess fairly and equitably, and that any advantage each of thorn Inight expect in Wesening his own tax by an., Inenting that'of the Koprietaries was too Wiling to induce them to perjure themselves. This is the THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN---PHILADELPHIA, fIIURSDWgAY 14, 1868. pueport s of what I remember se, urged by both sides, except that we instated 'Strongly on the tulschieeone consequences that mat attend a re peal, for that the money, 1:100,000 s being printed and given to the king's Wit, eXtlelltied )4 3 eervice, and now spread among the peo ple the repeal , would „strike ^ it ,dead in their bands to the ruin of tnany s 'and the total discouragement of future graants, and the selfish- Den of the proprietors in soliciting such a gene ral catastrophe, merely from a 'groundless fear of their estate being taxed too, hishly, was insisted on in the strongest terms. On this Lord Mans field. one of the counsel rose, and beckoning me • took me into the clerk's chamber, while the law yers were pleading, and asked me if I. was really of opinion that no, injury would be done the proprietary estate in the execution of the act. I' said certainly. "Then," says he, "sou can have little objection to enter into an engagement to assure that point." I answered, 'None at all.' Ho then called in Paris, and after some discourse, his lordship's proposition was accept ed on both sides ; a paper to the purpose drawn up by the Clerk of the Council, which I signed with Mr. Charles, who was also an Agent of the Province for their ordinary affairs, when Lord Mansfield returned to the Council Chamber, where finally the law was allowed to pass. Some changed were however recommended and we also engaged they should be •made by a subsequent law, but the Assembly did not think them neees- Eery; for one year's tax having been levied by the act before the order of Council arrived, they ap pointed a committee to examine, the proceedings of the assessors, and on this committee they put several particular friends of the proprietaries. After a full enquiry, they unanimously signed a rtport that they found the tax had been as sessed with perfect equity. " "The assembly looked into my entering into the first part of, the engagement, as 'an essential service to the Province, since it secured the credit of the paper money then spread; over all the country. They gave me their thanks in form when I returned. But theproprietaries were en raged at Governor Denny for flaying passed the act, and turned him out with threats of suing him for breach of instructions which ho had given bond to observe. He, however, having done it at, the instance of the General, and for Ells Ylaj esty's service, and having sorne powerful interest at court, despis'd the threats and they were never put in execution." These closing pages must have been written in Franklin's eighty-fourth year, in the intervals of those intense pains with which his latter days were tortured. They betray in their penman ship, and in tbeirlenmanship alone, the vacilla tion of age and infirmity. In sense they are as lucid as the brightest of their predecessors, and the philosopher's dismissal of Paris' accusation of want of candor, without a denial, is in his purest vein of firm good sense. Many an editor, tempted by theopportunity of • arriving with eclat before the public in an old part, would gratify himself by keeping on the stage as long as possible, the obvious means being that of writing up the memoir to the time of Dr. Franklin's death. Mr. Bigelow, with better taste, keeps his task within the strict limits of a study, and refers the seeker of information to a recent Biography written, with an easy and sparkling movement that Franklin himself would have liked, by Mr. Parton. "I am soliciting the advantage of you• criticism upon a work of mine," writes Franklin, referring to this autobiography, to Benjamin Vaughan, in 1789. "I think,with you, that if my memoirs are to be published, an edition of them should be printed in England for that country, as well as here for this." Before the death of the philoso pher these recollections, originally intended for the fireside reading of his grandchildren,had assumed in his mind that place before the public which they have ever since kept with such applause: but, in resigning his history to the world, the clear-headed old sage declined to suppress any thing, to alter anything. He opens out to friends and enemies the few peccadilloes of his youth and the few errors of his judgment. This sort of frankness is a stranger to the Anglo-Saxon charac ter, and was then unprecedented in English auto biography. We may reasonably ask the question whether Franklin, with all his courage, would I have been likely to act just in this way , i without some precedent, some influence emesulting from a court of opinion whose judgments he respected. Such a court of opinion, at the time of Frank lin's much-relished stay in Paris, existed around him; and such a precedent it was just then en gaged in passing judgment upon, and in justify_ in: with all its sympathy. The "Confessions" of Rousseau, it is true, were not published until 1781; but they were written in 1766-1770, and, as is well known, were being put about by their author in salon after salon with all the zeal of an egotist burning for stlf justification. And in the "confessions" we fancy we have—notwithstanding the indignant denial of Mr. Bigelow, who here exhibits the beat of an apologist—what formed Franklin's justification, if hot for the writing of certain of his paragraphs, at least for the razes tion of them after contemplating publication, The pebble dropped by Rousseau spread 'its cir cles far and wide. A taste for indecent frankness, and for the education of youth by means of epi grams, began to invade the old Bourbon state liness. "Nature" was pedestaled as a new deity. The influence, after saturating society, was soon felt in literature, in France among such autobi ographers as Mme. Roland, in England among such flighty pedagogues as Thomas Day and Richard Lovel Edgeworth, and even extended so as to color the writings of a certain class of American free-thinkers, such as Thomas Paine and Benjamin Franklin. Mr.. Bigelow's edition is a choice specimen of typography, in every way worthy of the memory of the great printer.

GREAT SALE OF OLD DUTCH PICTURES.-WO translate for the BULLETIN the particulars of the late unprecedented sale of the gallery of old Prince Demidoff, ex-husband of the Princess Mathllde. The prices given are quite beyond example, and will reassure those conservatiVes who feared that modern art was pmhing the old masters from their stools. Twenty-three canvases only, but nearly all famous, having a civil rank, known to all the world who, in passing byFlorence, took care not to forget San Donato. The sale is an event, it is above all a specula tion; the most diverse reports are spread about. First, a picture dealer was to have purchased the twenty-three pictures for five hundred thousand francs; the baron James Rothschild had vainly offered a million for all to the purchaser, who, the very morning of the sale, had finally ceded • his rights to several speculators. Is it true or is it not true ? At any rate they 'will hate it •that more, diplomacy has been spent on this affair than on the question of Schleswig. The hour of the sale approaches; halls 8 and 9 of the hotel in the Rue Drouot have been uni ted to enlarge the stage. The sale, is announced for.half-past two, and at half-past one 1 t is impos sible to find a vacant chair.

A pretty Berghern, The Old Oate, at i;(nea, exceeds forty thousana francs. The Haymaking, by , Wotiver mann, rises rapidly to 47,000,; M. Nariekine coolly pronounces "fifty thousand," and obtains it; this Wouverniann is a pearl. Paul Potter is announced, (t, Pastvre, and from the first bids you can see there will be a tremen dous struggle. - M. Mundler, M Nariskine, and a third person hidden at the end of the lower halls, and who reveals his presence by bids of ten thousand apiece, are present. A hundred thou— sand is paesed, ano people move, net up—they would like to see where that ventnloquist voice' proceeds from; finally,at 132,000 francs, the little eau! Potter is adjudged to M.

A prolonged murmur is heatd and everybody gets np; they have taken up the Conerek: Munster, by Terburg, a plate of copper about it by 7 inches; it is an historical work celebrated in the entire world. Set up at 100,000 francs, it finds a bidder first for fifty thousand, mounts apidly to the hundred thousand, at that some One throws in a bid of ton thousand francs, it is M. Nariskine, who, wishes to hasten the question; but, froM no one sees where, the bids succeed each other with great rapidity, and at last, in the midst of a great sensation, the work is adjudged to M.

The Cuyps of the San Donato gallery are mar vels. The Avenue of Dordrecht rises easily to a hundred thousand, amidst a 'pretty lively agita tion. The sergent de ville who is on guard can not comprehend it at all, and locks at the little panel with an air of horror. M.

Laid on the table. Mr. fleawens, of Nevada, frorathe Committee on Judiciary._ reported a bill to ;moire the political dis abilities of certain citizene of Alabama.. He stated that the committee recommends the relief to be ex tee ded to someone hundred and six persons, being all those in regard to whom sufficient information had haft ftwelatted.

Mr. beauties, of Mars, moved that it be laid on the table. Mr. CAWGRON, of Pa, .I object to that. I move that the resignation be accepted. Mr. busmen's moton was agreed to. Mr. HENDRICKS, of Ind., offered the following reso lution : Reolved, That the resignation of the Secretary of the Senate be accepted. and that until a successor be elected, William J. McDonald discharge the duties of the oeice, Mr. Elmarsit objected to the consideration of the resolution, and it went over. Mr. TCUMBULL, from the Committee on the judi ciary, reported the following resolution; Restfived, That the commissioners appointed under the act of June, 1e66, to provide for the revision and consolidation of the statute laws of the United States, be requested to report to the Senate what progress has been made by them, and how mutt' time will be re quired to complete the work. Adopted. Mr. HAIIMT, of Minnesota, offered a resolution to print the came number of copies of the letter of the Secretary; inclosing the report of Joseph W Taylor upon gold and silver mines and mining east of the Becky Mountains. as are ordered of the report on mining by .1. Boss Browne, and that they be bJunet tome her. He moved to refer to the Committee 0.71 r, Mr. t OritileS. of California, said there had been no retolution before the berate authorizing the printing of J. Roth; Brown's report, and that the report had never been sent to this body by the Secretary of the Treasury, who did not appear to regard this body as of !sufficient importance to send it. He (Mr. Connees) hoped they would get It at some time. Mr. Ilmanucus asked what made it the duty of the Secretary of the Treasury to present that report. Mr. comires replied that the law provided that the report should be made ander the direction of the Sec retary of the Treasury. It could not be taken cognt ?ante of by the Senate until it was presented. The senator from Indiana (Hendricks) need not be in haste to defend the Treasury. When be (Conneea) wished to attack him he would do it on in re salient points. He hoped the resolution would be referred to the Com. mittee on Mines and Muting. Mr. Jewelers, of Maryland, believed that under the law the Secretary of the Treasury was not °bilged to send the report to Congress, and that he was not, therefore, liable to censure for failure to send it. The Senator trout California (Contuse) could offer a reso lution asking for it Xt. COMYESS agreed that the Secretary Wee not obliged to furnish it, but would decline to offer the resolution. He remembered that that gentleman de nonneed this body ass body of "Constitution tinkat." He hoped to get the report in some way or other. Mr. Jou - mote then proposed to offer a suitable m ob:aim, but • Surax.r.zi objected, and the owlet:Wu was re ferred to the Committee on Mines and Mining . Mr. W 'mos, of Massachusetts introduced. a joint resolution to restate Alabama, North Carolina, South Carolina, traorgie„ Louisiana and Florida. to repro ,ntation in Congress. Referred to the Judiciary Committee.: Mr. ItAnsze introduced a bill to provide far the change of a name or location of a bank, under tne banking laws of the Uniteu States Referred to Ft minder t ommittee. Also. a bill to authorize the establishment of ocean snail service by American eteanneMps. between the . United States and the North and- South of Europe, and between the United States and afediteranean ports of Asia and Africa. Referred to the Committee on Postoffices and Postroads. Mr. &mamas, of Ohio, called np the House bill for the lomisnon of Arkansas, and suggested the advisa bility of taking immediate action upon it. Mr. Terainnth, of Illinois. opposed any departure from the ordinary practice, which required Its refer ence to the Judiciary Committee. Mr. JOLIN.Oti, of Marylend, took the same view, and said it would look to the country, although he did not believe such was the intenuort, as if the hasty admis sloe of Arkansas was designed to influence the vote on impeachment. Mr. Dixon thought it possible it might be claimed that the new Senators would have the right to vete, and he contended that nothing should be done which would admit the gees:ion to be raised. Mr. Sweareas deemed it inconceivable that these men would come here expecting to vote on Impeach ment, and urged the immediate passage of the bill on the ground that such action won a at once give moral sanction to the authority of the State Legislature, which was now inauttleraut to keep the peace and pre vent lawlessness. Mr. EIMUNDO favored its referents to the commit tee in the regular way. He approved the Constitution, but thought a bad precedent should not be .estab liebed; besides,Republloan Senators should not com mit themselves to action which would render them liable to suspicion. Mr. Bee,taaEW. of Pennsylvania, rafted the same points, as to whether the Constitution was legally ratified, that were made in the House, quoting from the report of General Gillum. Mr. tingnases replied, citing the report of the offi cer sent to inrestigate the election, to the effect that no frauds had been shown on the part of the reg.'s- Mr. MORTON, of Indiana. advocated a postpone ment until Monday, saying that the arguments of the Santora from Maryland and Connecticut indicated what use would be mode trtryy its opponents of tan at tempt to pasts it to-day. He was duns there leas no Intention to take advantageraf the passage of the bill, but he would move an adjoerement untie Saturday. Mr. Hantan pointed out that the addition ,of two Senatoratiordil sa ys the same number of votes as At present, nineteen,' effectual for acquittal; and would !herefore operate adversely to the friends of con viction. After further debate, Mr. Tnnetneu , pledged the Judi ciary Committee to an early consideration of the bill, and •' On motion of Mr. JOiLNEON, It was referree to: them. Messrs. Manion antiterniewa pressed the motion to adjourn to Saturday. /dr. Ammeter moved to amend by tenbatttuting,Fri - day,_H L ettniitte it much further delay were had, the Sm.' ate *Ube, instead of an august body, be called a Sep. tactOWKAy. . (Laughter j . The Amendment was rejected, and a motion to ad lentil until Saturday prevailed. House. Mr. Flues, of lowa, from the Peelle Railroad Com. =Mee. reported back the bIU, with amendments, to Incorporate the Puget Sound and Columbia River Railroad Company., After considerable discusaion and propoeitions to amend, Mr. Price moved the pre vious question. Tne Rouse refused to second the previous question. Mr. JULIAN, cm bldialcia. moved to refer the bill to the Committee cm Public Lands.

The bill to admit the States of North Carolina. south Carolina, 14u1siana, Georgie and Alabama to representationOongress was taken up. Mr. STIVE/I** of r'3ll3lnlvatda,, offered the follow ing amendment as an additiortal section And be ft further enacted. , T.hat the ,provisions of section 17, article b, of the Constitution of Georgia shall not apply to a debt due to any person who during the whole time of the rebellion was loyal to the "United States, and opposed to sevredon.„ Mr• STlllels stated that he would allow the whole 47 debate on the part of members opposed to the end thatiret would ask a vote on it to-morrow. . annum% at New York, asked whether it was understood that the House was going into the , 434eind;' , meat of a State Constitution. 4 .7fAri , The Smarm stated that that Was a guestimate thelionse. not for the Speaker. Mr. fliwnvina-1 proposed that amendment sad for this reason. The ttitution of Georgia whiles all debts due before certain period, as welt Pere due to 1 ,yal men as thosedue.to rebels. Hy amend ment is that it BMA mihiir cadr those due to rebels,, not to loyal men. . • B o apnw rr .Vollthementleman from Pennsyl- . van% allot ;Me tersak hint now he ld ping to pick out the creditors, loyal and dteloyal.„ Mr. teraveritarl ot grdnif to do it. but when sty body cialute to b oyal f 1 allover.° he will pick : himself out.t,-(Liregitterl Mr. PA - rlar., of Wisconsin, inquired of Mr. Stevens whether this was an Individnal amendment of his own, or one that came from the RecOnstrdetiori Com mittee.' ' ' Mr. 82n-um replied—lt is an individual amend- Inca. I,diseovered that the prohibition with ref. Mince, •to debts embracedall, as well these due to loyal meths those due to rebels. - That, of course, I thought wrong. and propose to amend. Mr. PRIMA. of New York—l rise to a quelition of or. der. I ask the Chair to rule that this b , ,dv has no right, by, any ieghlation or attempted , legislaton here, to interfere with the Constitution or the provisions of the Constitution of any State. ' • The RPEAKEN—The Chair overrules the point of order. He declines tq rule as the gentleman from New York desires, because if that were his preroga tive he might be called upon to rule thus me blest which many Members regard as unconstitutional, and which even the President vetoes as not being con,ati tnticmal. The Beelike?' has no right in any legislative body to nile whether a proposition is constitutional or, not—only whether It is parliamentary. Its conetitu tionality affects its merits, and suchlinestiona are to be decided by the House, not by the Chair. Mr. RANDALL, of Pennsylvania; asked Mr. Stevens *here he got authority in , the Constitution or any b ere. else to amend the Constitution of a State. Mr. Statifisa--I find it in the Constitution, which says Congress may admit States Into the United States. I hold that Under that: , cougreee may admit them In' just such shape as Congress pleases. I do not llnd any difficulty about that, • , Mr. RANDALL—I would like ntleman to ' go on and give us his argument, upon this point, because some of us here find great difficulty about it. Mr. Beavarts--Anybody who needs argnment`on that point /cannot enlighten. [Laughter.) Mr BOYER, of. Pennsylvania I desire to know whether my villagers Intends Pennsylvania, his amendment emit prevent the taxation of debts, judgments and cares of action due to loyal men. Mr. Stzvrats--I,expeottbem to modify it according to the provisions of the act. I stated that this bill was postponed last Monday and that I would allow full d 1 salon. Ide not want to discuss It myself, but will leave all discurgion to the members who are opposed to the hill. I intend, however, before the House adjourns to-day, to move the previous question, So the vote may be taken to morrow. Mr. Uneexe, Of New York, gave notice that he would offer the following amendment as an additional section: Be it further enacted, That on and after the passage of this act all citizens of the United States in tee States heretofore mimed ithall be admitted to equal rightrof suffrage. Mr. Been, of Kentucky, addressed the House for an hour in opposition to the bill. He declared that the amendment proposed by Mr. Stevens was jest , as , legitimate and just as much the action of the people 9t the States as the: constitution proposed for theca Were. If the members of the gem:iliac= party did not come np to the amendment jest offered by Mr. Stevens, it would be the first time thersny proposition preesed by the (Distinguished gentleman from-Penn sylvania wasadOpted by all the members of his party, inciudin' the distinguished member from Ohio (Bing ham), who would yet have to yield thine dictates of this great leader. Mr. BINGHAM remarked that that statement was contradicted by the record in innumerable instances, and that the gentleman ought not to make it. Mr lircH repeated the assertion that the positions taken by Mr. btevens had been followed by his party in almost every instance, whether they had been liked at first or not. The amendment now offered by the gentleman from Pennsylvania would De another illus tration of the rule. He referred to the reaolutions of the Ohio Legislature, preeeuted last Monday by Mr. Van Tramp, opposition to the reconstruction measures of Congress; He also referred to the objec tionable features of the constitutions- under which the Southern States were to be admitted,' particularly that provision of the South Carolina Constitution which makes it compulsory on all children, white and colored, to be sent to the same schools. Mr. Many, of Lalifornia, asked Mr. Beck what he would do with the ne , n,., oes. Mr. Brest readied Ohs he would protect them as bredmett agile would protect any person who had not capacity to exercise political rights and privileges. For a great many reasons he held that the negro was unfit to hold political rig,hta, and it was an outrage against the civilization of the are to place the ne groes of the South in a position to control the white race. It was an outrage which he believed the people of the country would erelong wipe one Ile declared that the colored people of Kentucky were now better protected and better cared forthan they were in any of the States that are antler the reconstruction act. The object of the pending bill was to control the voters of the Northern States in the approaching Presidential election. Mr. PATINSWoRTII, of Illinois, naked Mr. Beck whether If the black men would vote the Democratic ticket his objection to them participating in the gov ernment would not be somorhat. modified. Mr. Brett—Not in the slightest. Mr. GAILFIRLD, referring to the allusion made by Mr. Beck to the rescilationa of the Ohio Legislate, said that great deference ought to paid to the opin ions of State Legislatures,- provided those Legrsla turfswere by their conduct and opinions entailed to respect, and that he world refer to some acts of tne Ohio Legislature to show whether chat body was en titled to the confidence or contempt of the douse. In that connection he refered to the act pretendin; to withdraw the consent of the State of Ohio to the fourteenth article of the amendments of the Consti tution; to the ace remodelling the police lams of tee leaning Republican cities of the State, so as to give them a Democratic police. To the act, known as tae visible admixture law, which provides that any man having a visible admixtare of African blood in his veins shall not be Remitted to vote, and which üb j ects every voter to be inquired of as to who was his father. and who WAS his mother; whether they were married and lived together, &c. To the act forbidding any student in the colleges of Ohio (if not a resident of the place) to vote. and to the act forbidding the inmates of the Soldiers' Home, at Dayton, Ohio. to vote, because it was known. that thof would vote as they had fought. Mr. Garfield allowed interruptions from his col lc-a gut s, Messrs. Morgan and Van Trump, in reference to local measures and politics, and replied to them. Mr. RonnesoN addressed the House for one hoar in opposition to the bill, and declared his belief that all those unconstitutional measures all these mere partisan measures, all these efforts to austair a parts which had been ciltdemned and repudi ated by the people,wonld !attend fail forever, and that the impeachment resolutions would be expunged by the House and black lines drawn around them, and around those who had voted for that greatest stab on the institutions of the country.

Society. ilannisuunc e May 13th, 1868s--The annual Netting of our various medical conventions furnish convenient and effective mediums for the dissemination of the truths of medical sci ence and of acquiring scientific information of the highest value to its possessor. Much of the pro gress which has been made by our medical breth ren may properly be attributed to the influence of these yearly gatherings. Here areproduced for the first time in a tangible form the long-considered theories of the experienced practitioner and the no less valuable observations and experiments of the more practical student of medicine. It is to be regretted that much of this valuable informa tion, particularly that which is brought out by warm and earnest discussion, is invariably lost to the profession at large, the only matters of record being the written reports and papers which have been previously prepared, and which alone are preserved. During the present session of the Hommo patine State Medical Society, the discussions upon the various subjects under consideration have re sulted in much apparent interest and benefit. In accordance with the order of business, the vari ous committees appointed for the purpose sub mitted papers upon the different subjects assigned for their consideration, and these were discussed at length, and many new facts and valuable sug gestions brought to the attention of the members present. Dr. A. Lippe, from the Committee on the sub ject of Provings; read a lengthy and exhaustive report. By "proving," we understand to be the process of noting tne effect produced upon one's self, when in a state of health, by taking certain drugs, with a view to appl% ins; those drugs when thr same symptom- were observed in disease. Dr. W. James Blakely remarked that "pro rings" formed the comer-stone of homumpathy, being that without which homempathy could not exist. Individual efforts were valueless to a certain extent, because it was difficult to get a sufficiently large number of persons to assist in "provings." He argued that there should be organized action in the mutter, and suggested the Jonnation of a regular organization, With - officers, who should give certain drugs to . the members who were inclined to assist in "proving." Thus, by a large number of persons proving a drug at the same time, its effects could be ascertained; whereas, where only five or six persons proved a drug, its effects were not ascertained. The speaker had " proved " a number of drugs, and one of these—the arsenite of copper—he presented to the society. This drug had, been proved ", by himself, and by others under his direction. On motion, the thanks of the Society were ten dered to Dr. Blakely for the specimen of his prov ings. Dr. Walter Williamson, of Philadelphia, sub mitted a preamble and resolution relative to a re vision of the nomenclature of the homwspathic materia medics. The preamble set forth the de fective character of the nomenclature of the ma feria medica of the homeopathic school of medi cine, the necessity for sameness in the agents em ployed for proving and in the treatment of dis ease, and the importance of designating the part of the plant used if the drug be derived from the vi getable kingdom. The resolution, therefore, re q uested the American Institute of Homeopathy to appoint a committee of five for the purpose at Vie stated, and also to recommend a system of pharmacy. The above subject was discussed at length and the resolution was adopted. A number of reports from persons in charge of hospitals and infirmaries , , and upon the subject of improvements in obstetrics, were also made and discussed. Dr. 31. Cote submitted a report on the subject of dietetics, which was read and discussed at length. On the subject of epidemics and endemics Dr. W. Williamson, of Philadelphia, read a report stating that the subjects referred to this commit tee were too extensive and important for con sideration at length in their report. They there fore limited themselves to 'he expression of some observations, suggestive rather than didactic, on a few points 01 interest. The report states that a disease rarely occurred epidemically in any place where it was not endemic or had its sporadic effect. There were various diseases which might occur sporadically everywhere, among which scarlet fever and measles were striking examples, and these might also appear epidemically everywhere. The former might be said to prevail sometimes as an epidemic in the summer and autumn . , whilst the epidemic of measles occurred in tne winter and spring. After one or two further general observations the report closed, and the discussion upon the sub ject was proceedea wish. The following were duly elected to honorary membership in the Society: H. M. Paine, SI. D., Albany,N. Y.; J. T. Talbot, DI. D. Boston, Mass.; William• Tod. Helmuth, M. D., St. Louis, Mo.; J. P. Drake, M. D., Salem,' Ohio; N. E. Payne, M. D.. Bath, Maine; J. H. Pulse, M.

D., Allegheny City; Wm. F. Chrelst, M. D., Harrisburg; Charles Yaer, M. D., Harrisburg Drs. J. H. Marsden, of York Sulphur Springs, Richard Cook, of Philadelphia, and 0. B. Gause, of Philadelphia, were constituted the board of censors for the ensuing year. Dr. 31. Friese read an able report.on the subject of homeopathy and clinical medicine, in which he repdrted the case of a lady afflicted with para lysis, the' main symptoms being an absence of power over the muscles of locornotion, and an affection of the nerves of sensation. Her cure bad not been effected, and the Doctor asked for advice on the case. Dr. W. James Blakely narrated' the cast of a boy who bad been similarly affected, his lower limbs being completely paralyzed, and his growth fretarded. A. cure was effected by ad ministering to the patient a medicine known , as bryonis, after whic.h his system developed rega l' e report on hygiene, an interesting and in structive paper, was submitted by Dr. Blakely. The author Introduced his remarks by a refer mice to the corudderation and .attention given ,t 0 hygienic laws in ancient times. The GreekS en forced the most stringent laws SW the purpose of compelling obedience to established hygienic principles. The code of. Lyeargais„ . thouernel in the extreme, was intended to Impress upeit the• mind of , subject the necessity. of strictattention to hygiene. The national guise were hygienic adjuyantia, of the highei3t ordard Among thn Rotkutrespthe pUb lic baths were drat established., as promoters, o! health,".ait was the Collieum for the attainment of, physical strength. and for the encouragement of athletic eXereises, ,The degeneration 'of these Into places lor luxury and effeminacy, and the exercise of brutality, but too Sadly (Wetted the misery:which invariably follows the decline of hygienic laws. The author then divided his subject into the foll Owing points- Food and drink to health and disease, management of infants, disinfeetton,ch umeteric influences, and physical culture. The, different phases of 'the subject as represented by these heads were then dwelt upon by the speaker at, length. The usual discussion upon the subject followed. On motion of Dr. McClellan, of rltteburgh the J thanks of the society were tendered to Prof. J. 11. P. Frost, of Philadelphia, for his able address be fore the body on the preivious evening. A motion was made to hold the next annual session of the convention at Harrisburg on the second Tuesday of May. several amendments, providing for a change of the place of meeting to Erie, West Chester, and Gettysburg, were severally voted down. On motion of Dr. Marsden, the time of meeting next year was fixed for the third Tuesday of May. The report of homeopathic statistics was re ceived, read and discussed.. The unfinished business of the session was then proceeded with, as also certain miscella neous business. , After the appointment of the usual committees the Convention adjourned.—Thu Prat?.
