doubtful questions as to the authenticity of the

on file in this Department that the Legislatures of two
of the States above enumerated—to wit: Ohio and
New Jersey—have since passed resolutions respect
ively withdrawing the consent of each of said States
to the aforesaid amendment: and
117 iereas, Ills deemed a matter of doubt and un

invalid, and therefore inefiectual for withdrawing the

ELECTORAL' COLLEGE BILL.
At 1:30 the veto of the bill relating to votes in Elec
toral Colleges Was received irom the President, and
shortly after, on motion of Mr. Edaundb, the Senate
proceeded to itß consideration.
After the reading the President stated tho ques
tion to be on passing the bill notwithstanding the ob
jections of tho President.
Mr. Davis said a few words pronouncing tne o
reasoning conclusive. . ,
Mr. Howard styled It one of the most incendiary
documents that ever emanated from that source; an
open and direct declaration that tho reconstruction
acts are illegal and void, and that no votes from those
States ought to be counted in the Electoral College.
Be continued: 44 As one humble representative of the
Republican party, I annorince my readiness to meet
this issue, and I take np the glove; we wUI go before
the people npon that issue, whether these govern
ments shall exist or whether they shall be destroyed
by revolutionary means. Let tho Issue come and
welcome.”

AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP.
of the bill for the , protection of
American citizens in foreign countries was resumed.
Mr Stewart took the fioor. He advocated the
adoption of the most summary measures, denying
that any war wlthlGreat Britain would result. If it
did, wo would be able to make some reprisal for the
Alabama claims, and every ono knew that the boun
daries of onr country would not shrink in the con
test. He also declared that no nation in the world
affords so little protection to its citizens abroad as
doeß the United States. He had heard of cases where
Miiei leans abroad passed for Englishmen, for the
sake of the protection of the British flag.
EXECUTIVE BUSINESS
At three o’clock, Mr. Anthony moved to proceed to
the consideration of executive bosinesa. Baying there
was eomeimportant husintss to be dODe.
Mr. Conness opposed the motion. He said the bill
would never be passed if it went on in this manner,
and called for the yeas and nays.
The motion wfts agreed to—2B to 19.
The Ciiaib laid before the Senate a message from
the President, transmitting the ratification resolu
i ions of Louisiana and South Carolina. Referred to
t he Committee on the Judiciary.

Navy, transmitting information In regard to the
discovery and occupation of the midway islands of the
Vaciflc. _
Also, a communication from the Constitutional Con
vention of Texas, enclosing a report of a committee
nt that body on the subject of lawlesnesß and crime In
that State. , , ..
The Senate went into Executive session, and after
some time took a recess till seven and a.half o’clock.
EVENING SESSION.
Mr. Wilson called up the bill for the reduction of
ibe military peace establishment of the United Stateß.
He reported a substitute from tho Committee on Mil
itary Affairs. The fifHt section reduces the army to
thirty regiments of infantry, eight of cavalry and foar
of artillery, three of the infantry regiments to be col
ored troops and three cf veteran reserves, and one
cavalry regiment to be colored.
The second section authorizes tho President to
rouster out the residue, and directs that no farther en
listments be made until the army should be reduced
to 30,000.
The third section provides fcr the honorable dis
charge of all the bands now In the service, except that
at the Military Academy.
Section four designates thh mode of canylng|tnis act
into effect, which is to be done by the Secretary of
War, who is to appoint a board of officers for the pur
pose, to designate the officers to be retained, and sob •
mit to Congress next session their names and the plan
determined upon.
By section live it 1b provided that vacancies in the
paces of commissioned officers shall be left
unfilled until the reduction- is made, and by It
and section six the grades of regimental commissary in
. avalry regiments, commissary Bergeants, hospital
stewards and veterinary surgeons are abolished, and
toe number of corporals in each company reduced to
Section nine authorizes the Secretary of War to
deliver to the Governor of each State a number of
Springfield rifled muskets, with accoutrements, not
exceeding one thousand for each Congressional dls
trlCw
Mr. Davis pronounced the naming of all the States
a mere "»pRk to cover the purpose of the Radicals to
distribute arms among the black Radicals for the pur
pose, IS not of murder, of driving thecal Democratic
voters from the polls. He could see no other purpose
in it. They would be placed under tntf control of the
military commanders of the South, such as General
Meade, who had,without authority, offered 820,000 for
the d.wcovery of the murderere of Ashburn, who was
killed In a negro bagnio in Georgia- He commented
severely upon the course pursued by General
Meade towards those charged with the murder, and
teßed how long it will be possible with such occur
icuceß as those to avert another conflict? He warned
them that forbearance would not last forever. He had
had no time to examine this measure, but he knew it
was 00-use-io-plead for time tor consideration. The
dictates of party necessity hurried throagh measure
f »fter measure, and he felt wholly incapable of ex
pressing his sense of their enormity.
Mr. bowAED said he saw no occasion for the indig
nant burs of eloquence in which the Senator had in
ti ulged* It had alwayß been the custom of the eovem
ment to distribute arms among the States. He read a
si atement of the number of arms the government has
on hand, including 1,490,198 rifled muskets and car- ]
bines. The whole amount proposed to be distributed
wbb about 260,000, which the government could there
fore well spare to the States.
Mr. Willey replied to Mr. Davis by reading a
statement of the outrages committed in Texas, signed
by seven members of the Convention, headed by the
President, Judge Chid well, showing the number of
homicides since the dose of the war, as follows: 1865,
39 whites, 38 freedmen; 1868, 70 whites, 72 freedmou;
1867,166 whites, 165 freedmen; 1866, 171 whites, 136
freedmen.
BlDce this enumeration, 21 whites and 21 freedmen
had been killed, making a total of 939. Of these
there were killed by whites 464 whites and 873 freed
men; by freedmen, 10 whites and 48 freedmen, and 48
by parties whose race is not known. The report re
cites the names of many eminent Union inun who fell
by the hand of the assassin.
Mr Willey insisted that he had thus shown the
necessity for putting arms in the orderly portion of
the community, white and black.
Mr. Drake said the evident disturbance caused by
this bill was caused by the fact that It had a sting in
it, namely, that the arms are to be distributed to the *
loyal Governors of tho States. He, for due, was in
tuvor of expressing In the bill tho intention of pro
tecting the loyal men in tho South, at the ballot
box, and if he had his way, hs would
put a Springfield musket in the hands of every loyal
citizen.
Mr. Anthony said the distribution proposed waß
a departure from the uniforin practice heretofore,
which had been according to Federal representation In
both houses. Ho asked, therefore, to amend by pro
viding that two thousand he added for each State.
Mr. Sherman aßked what Rhode Island wanted with
so many armß, unless tho Senator feared another Dorr
rebellion. , _ ...
Mr. Anthony—"We made very good übc of them
both In the Dorr rebellion and m that of which the
Dorr rebellion was but a prototype.
Mr. Buckalew said the arms would be better cared
for In the government arsenals than in the States.
Any surplus of serviceable arms could ho sold. •
Mr. W ilson remarked that such was the intention,
but that there are at least one million of good arms
on hand.
Mr. Buckalew was of the opinion, that until there
is a demand for these arms the government had oetter
retain them. -
Mr. Mobton said the whole rebel population have
their arms remaining from the war, while the new
Slate governments .have neither arms nor money to
buy them. No man would deny their right to have
them, unless be wished to see them overturned by
: violence. From Indications here to night It could be
seen that the issue set forth In Blair’s letter was
j clearly made up, that it was the intention to overthrow
them if possible. Was it not then necessary to
. enable them to defend themselves? Tho whole of the
oppression the Senator from Kentucky had referred

to, consisted In a email number of white men diafran- ■
chin'd, not from vitlng, but from Holding office, for ;
liavlDg perjnted themselves, and in tho colored mch ,
having equal rights conferred upon them.,
Ur. Cameron commented upon tho conduct of
Floyd and others before the war, in scattering tho
aims beyond the reActi of the loyal States, and pro
nonncea himself in favor of tho btlL
Mr How abd called attention to tho President’s dec
laration in to-day’e veto, that- the reconauuctod gov
ernments are nail and void. According to that doc
trine, . tho President, In case of a conflict be
tween those governments and robel organizations
under tho Johnson government, would refuse
to protect them with the army. Ho (Howard) would
be ashamed of -himself then, if ho did not protect
them.- The Republican party was prepared to moot
every emergency. Including that rnado up by tho Dem
ocratic ratty and the President. If war must cone,
they would not shrink from it. Let those who talked
of a war of races, commence it if tboy chooso.
Mr. Davib spoke again, arraigning (he Republican
party for its conduct since tho' close of tho war,
during which Umo,he said,they have committed worse
crimeß than secession or rebellion.
Mr. Buckalew opposed adding to the number of
arms proposed, as contemplated by tho amendment of
Mr. Anthony. .. '
The amenament waß adopted.
Mr. Doolittle took the floor Bhortly after ten
o’clock, and proposed to amend the details oi tho bill,
decreasing the army to twenty thousand instead of
thirty thousand, which he considered enough for tho
peace establishment. He condemned the bill as pro
posing to arm one party agalnßt the other, and urged
that if any military force is to be kept np it should bo
tho regular army. Ho implored them not to inaugu
rate a war of raceß, which would certainly result from
such a state of things aB this bill' would’bring about.
He quoted General Grant and General Sherman in
support of tnls statement. Tho occurrences subse
quent to the death of-Ashbum were referred to and
commented on as instances ,of the result of tho pos
session of despotic power. ■ , -i „
Considerable amusement' was created by Mr. Doo
ltttle addressing Senators several times aa fellow
citlzenß. i l -
Mr. Wilson disavowed for the hill any purpose but
a legitimate reduction of the army to the lowest point
consistent with safety. It wsa impossible to reduce it,
to twenty thousand, there; being in the South alone
nineteen thousand. The Springfield mnaket was
abont to be replaced by the breech-loading rifle, and
they would be properly given to the; militia, among
those,-abont to- be organized in the South.
The Ashbum affair he pronounced an organ
ized murder. He had, vvlthin three days, read
a letter from thoso imprisoned on ,suspicion, exoner
ating the military officers from the charge of 111- treat
ment. He denied the truth of the charge that ABh
bnm was killed in a house of 111-fame, asserting that
it was a respectable honae, where Ashbum had found
Bbelter after having been driven from the hotel.
— Mr-.-Harlan- next-addressed
the Democrats with inconsistency in protesting
ngalnet this bill, after long clamoring for a redaction
ot the army. .
The amendment of Mr. Doolittle was declared ont
° £ Jlr. Vickers offered another providing that the dis
tribution of arms shall not take place prior to tho Ist
of Jannary next, unless the Preßidentrahall deem it
necessary for the prevention of dlstnrbanceß in the
' Southern Btates. He said Senators on his side had
' no objection to the reduction of the army disconnected
from this proposition to distribute arms. He would
vote for the bill ii that were left oat
After Borne further discussion, with considerable im
patience for a vote manifest on the Republican siae,
us eleven o’clock passed by, the yeas and nays were
called for, and ft appearing tbatbnt thirty-one Sena
tors were present one short of a quorum messen

appeared and voted no, so the amendment was re-
Mr? Vickers offered two othcr;amcndments, which
were disposed of without a division.

Yinnie Ream are no longer required to accommodate
Woolley, and therefore directing, that Bhe may,occupy
them until she completes the statue of Mr. Lincoln,
not exc«edlng one year. _
Mr. Stevens made some remarks in support of the
resolution, and said that, if he had been preparing
lodgix-gs for Woolley.instead of proyiding him with a
neat, carpeted parlor, he would hav<Tthrust him into
the black hole. t . ..
Mr. Eldridgb Bald he did not object to any of the
remarks of the-gentleman from Pennsylvania except
as to the black hole. , , , , ,
Mr Mullins suggested that a dark hole was the
life of the party.
Mr. Eldredge expressed his willingness that the
. gentleman from Tennessee (Mr. MoUliib) should go

Mr. Sawyer, at the Instance of Mr. Kelley, offered
a resolution authorizing the Naval Committee to con
tinue investigation into the purchase of machinery at
the Navy-yard, and to report at the next session.
Adopted.
Mr, Loughredge offered a resolution declaring that
the House views with deep interest the heroic strug

Mr. Dawes, from the Committee on Elections, re
ported oack the credentials of Israel G. Lash, mem
ber-elect of North Carolina.
Mr. Lash advanced to the Speaker’s chair, had the
test oath administered to him, and took his seat as a
Representative from North Carolina.
RECONSTRUCTED REBEL.
Mr. Dawes olbo reported back the credentials of
C. C. Bowen, of South Carolina, and asked that the
oath prescribed by the statute of 7th July. 1868, be
admlnlsttred to him, he having Berved in the Con
federate army.
Mr. Mullins opposed the admission of Bowen and
proceeded to state his objections to it He said tnat
Hr. Bowen had been originally bom in Ohio.
Mr. Farnsworth Inquired where he had been bom
the next time? [Laughter.]
Mr. Mullins replied that he had been bom again
into political life a few days ago, when a bill to re
move the disabilities of twelve hundred rebels, inclu
ding Mr. Bowen, had been passed, and God deliver
him from any more such births.
Mr Da web explained that the political disabilities
. of Mr. Bowen having been removed, there was now
no legal objection |to his admission. He said.that
though he had been conscripted and had served In tho
rebel army, he had since the dose of the war been a
consistent Union man.
The report was accepted, and Mr. Bowen advanced to
the Speaker's chair and had administered to him the
oath which is prescribed for persons whose political"
disabilities have been removed,and took his seat as a
member from South Carolina.
Mr. Donnelly, from the committee of conference

on the ElectoralCollego bill.
The message was read. That portion o£ It which
suggested the possibility of Mori hern states being ex
cluded from the electoral vote becausu some of their
Inhabitants had been engaged In the rebellion was
greeted with laughter on the Republican side of the
House.
Mr Garfield asked Mr. Boptwell to explairi what
was meant by reference to rebels in New York.
——Mrr BouTwEnirrepUed-that every one would under
stand wTfat was meant by It without any explanation.
Mr Brooks suggested that It be referred to Wendell
Philips,' Theodore Tilton, Henry Ward Beecher, Ger
ritt smith, and all that company of rebels.
Mr. KEBR thought it refeired to tho New York
Tribune and Horace Greeley.
Mr. Washburne, of Ulinolß, intimated (ironically)
that it did not refer to Seymour.
Mr. Boctwei.l said that he had no doubt that it re
ferred to the New York rioters of duly, 1803.
Mr. Buuuboe suggested that it referred to those

The vote was taken on passing tho joint resolution,
notwithstanding the objection of-the-Presldent. -It
resulted y< as 134, nays 86.
Tho Speaker declared that two-thirds having voted
in the affirmative and It having been certified by the
Senate that, on a similai vote on reconsideration,
two-thirds of that body bad also agreed to the passage
ot the bill, the joint resolution had become a law, not
withstanding the objections of tho President. •
DEFICIENCY BILL.
On motion of M.r of Illinois, tho
Ben Ate amendments to the deficiency bill were non
coucurred in, and a committee of conference asked
for.

The Speaker announced tho Select Committee on

VACANCIES. IN THE EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENTS.
Mr. Pomeroy, from the coniercnco committee on
tho Senate bill to authorize the temporary supplying
of vacancies in the executive departments, mado a re
port. Pending tho discussion of tho report,
Mr, Bchbnck asked that there be an eveniDg session
to dispose of business on the Speaker’s tablo
Mr, Washburns, of Illinois, objected, remarking
that he did not want to go to business on the Speaker s
table during a night session. ’ • , _ ...
Mr. Schenck moved to suspend the rules for tuat
called" for tho yeas and nays. The
vote was taken by yeas and nays, and resulted—yeas
76, nays 71, so two-thirds not voting in favor thereof
tho rules were not suspended. ;. . .
The discussion of the conferenco report on the bill
to Bhpply vacancies in tho Executive Department was
resumed. • ' _ .
After some further discussion on a. point of no pubr
lie interest, merely as to what poreon in the.Patcat
Office shall perform tho duties of Commissioner of
Patents in tne absence of that Officer, Mr. Pomeroy
gave way to Mr. Schenok, who moved that there bo
an evening session for general business. The motion
was rejected. „ ' ' '
Mr. Schenck then moved to sußpcnd the rules, so
as to offer a resolution providing that a motion to sus
pend the rules shall be In order any day after this,
until the end of the present session. .
Mr. Scofield mndosome remarks in opposition to
the resolution, staling among other things, that, the
effect of Burp ending tho rules by a two-thirds vote,
was to get through the House two-thirds of tho bad
business which could not get through in any other
Schenck declared that the insinuation of tho
gentleman from Pennsylvania, was an unworthy one,
and that ho had no right to speak in that way of the
pnrpngo of any. nther gentleman. _. Ho addud that there ,
-were those who desired Y the proper performauco of.
business, os well as the members who objected to
everything.
Mr. Scofield protested that he had mado no refer
ence to the motives of tho gentleman from Ohio, who
had got np In such wrath, or anybody else. Ho had
simply spoken of the effect of tho resolution, and had
not thought or imputing any unworthy purpose. Ho
had spoken merely of Its parliamentary effect, and the
gentleman from Ohio could not daunt him by his In
solent manner ot address.
Mr. tscnENCK Bald that he was not attempting to
dannt ilk: gentleman from Pennsylvania, bnt he never
heard imputations of that kind upon hla own motives,!
without repelling them
The (Speaker, Interfering to stop this colloquy.,
ruled that both gentlemen were out of order. He
thought the manner of the gentleman from Ohio out
of order, and he thought tho language of the gentle
man from Pennsylvania about “daunting” membera
not parliamentary. , , ..
Mr. Schenck Inquired whether that resolution was
not In entire accordance with the spirit of the rule
which authorizes motions to suspend the rules within
ten doyß of the close of the Besslon.
The Spbakeii said he could only reply that under
the rules motions to suspend the rules were In order
w ithin tho last ten days of the session.
Mr. Scbenck said that when he waa called to order,
be was merely wanting to know whetbor the gentle
man Irom Pennsylvania could get up and assail him.
Mr. Bcofield-I did not get up to aaeall you. |Call,
Mr. \i abhburne, of Illinois, asked the Speaker
whether, when the day for adjournment was fixed, it
would not be in order every day after that to move to
suspend the rules. ..... .
The Speaker— lt Is, provided It bo within ten days
of Iho expiration of the Besslon.
Mr. WABiLBCiiNE--Very well. That is enough.
The House refnsed to suspend the rules.
Mr Logan offered a resolution directing tho Door
keeper of the House to retain in employment during
the recess the crippled soldiers In hla department.
Mr. Eedbihge suggested as an amendment that
they be allowed to go home and draw their pay.
Mr. Logan accepted the amendment, and the reso
lution as modified was agreed to. ,
The consideration of tho conference report was re
sumed. On a division there appeared to be a majority
sgulnßt the report.
Mr. Pomeroy called for the yeas and nays.
Mr. Spalding moved that tho report be laid on the
table. . _
Pending the vote on that motion the House, at five
o’clock, adjourned.
Another Indian War Threatened.
Saint Louis, July 20.—An army officer just from
Fort Larned, on the Arkansas River, says that from
twelvo hundred to fifteen hundred Indians, repre
senting nearly all the tribes on tho plalne, congre
gated at or near that post, to receive thelr.annultles,
hut that on account of the recent depredations com-'
mltted by the C heyennes, some weeks since. Colonel
Wyncoop had been ordered to withhold arms and am
munition. This the Indians said was a violation of
the treaty, and they notified Colonel Wyncoop If he
did not lssne any, they would fight for them—that
they were ready for war again.
The meeting broke up In great confusion. That
evening, the 10th Instant, the Ktowas attacked a train
from Kansas City ; also a Mexican train and a mall
carrier, robbed them of supplies and provisions, and
beat the teamsters.
General Sully arrived from Fort Harker on the 11th
Instant, and told the Indians, in the presence of six
hundred cavalry, that he preferred peace, but was
ready for war.
This awed them somewhat, but they wore sullon
and discontented. Colonel Wyncoop deprecates the
vaacillatlrg course pursued by the government, and
eays that the Indians in his agency never were more
peaceably inclined, but he says hostilities are likely
to break forth at any time.
A lieutenant and five soldiers belonging to Fort
Larned had been killed by the Indians.
All the troops at Fort Ellsworth had been ordered
to Fort Lamed, and the commanding officers of all
the posts In the department have been ordered to
prepare their commands for action at the shortest pos
sible notice. -

REV. T. W. CATijgbK
Ibe FntUleiiCDVcto of the Electoral
i toilette IfKl.
Washington, July.2o.—'Tho President to-day
sent the following message to the Seimte:
To the Senate of the United Stales-.—l have
given to the joint rcsolatlon entitled a resolution
excluding from the electoral college the votes of,
States lately in rebellion which shall not have
been reorganized, as carefnl an examination as I
have been able to bestow upon tho subject, dur-.
ing the few days that have intervened since the
measure was submitted for my approval.
Feeling constrained to withhold my as
sent, Therewith return tho resolution toi tne
Senate, In which House it originated, with a
brief statement of, tbe reasons which have in
duced my action. This joint resolution Is based
upon • the assumption. that somo 01. tno
States whose Inhabitants tvero lately
in rebellion arc not now . entlUed to
representation In Congress, and to parttcipj to In
the election of President and Vice Present ° f
the United States. Having heretofore had a
reason to give In detail my reasons for dissent
ing from this view. it is not necessary at this
time to reoeat them. It Is sufficient to state
that J continue strong in the conviction,
that tho acts of secession,-by which a number of
the States sought to dissolve their connection
with the other'States, and to subvert the Union,
being unauthorized by the Constitution and in
due violation thereof, were from tho beginning
i absolutely null and void.
ft follows, necessarily, that when tho rebellion
terminated, the several States' which had at
tempted to secede continued to bo States in the
Union, and all that was required to onablo them
to resumedheir relations to the Union was that
they should adopt measures necessary to tholr
practical restoration as States,, '• .
Such measures were adopted, and the legiti
mate result was that those States, havine con
formed to all the requirements of the constitu
tion, resumed their former relations and
became entitled to the exercise of all the
rights guaranteed to them by. its provi
sions: The joint resolution under consideration,
however, seems to assume that, by the insurrec
tionary acts of their respective inhabitants,.these
States forfeited their rights as such, and can
never again exercise them except upon reidmia
6ion Into tho Uolon on‘tho terms pxcsciited by
CoDirrcsfl. It this position be correct, it.follows
- tbat&bcy-Tvere taken ouUjMbe-Uokm by sirtoo or
their acts of secession* amfohencc that the war
waged was illegal and unconstitutional.
We would thus be placed in this unconstitutional
attltudo, that while tho war was commenced aud
carried on, on tbe distinct ground that the South
ern States, being component parts of the Union,
•were In rebellion against tbe lawtul authority of
tbe United States, upon its termination we resort
to a policy of reconstruction, which assumes
that It was in facta rebellion, and that the war
was waged for the conquest of territories as
sumed to be a part of tbe Constitutional Uuion.
The mode and manner of receiving and count
ing the Electoral votes for President and Vico
President of the United Btatea are in plain and
simple terms prescribed by tho Constitution.
That instrument Imperatively requires that the
President of the Senate shall, In tne presence of
tbe Senate and House of Representatives, open
all the certificates, and the votes shall then be
counted. Congress bo», therefore, no power
under tbe constitution to receive any electoral
votes, or to reject them. , .
Tbe whole power Is exhausted when in the
presence of the two Houses, the votes are
counted and the result declared. In this respect
tb crooners and duties of the President of the
Senate are, upder the constitution, partly minis
terial. When, therefore, tho joint resolution de
clares that no electoral votes ehal) be received or
counted from States that, since March 4th, 18G7,
“have not adopted a constitution of State go
vernment under which, a State govemmeptshall
have been organized,” a power is assumed .which
Is nowhere delegated to the Congress,nnlesb upOU
the assumption that the State governments or
ganized prior to March 4th, 1867, were illegal
and void.
The joint resolution, by implication at least,
concedes that these States are States by virtue of
their organization prior to March 4tb, 186 c, bat
denies to them the right to vote in the election
of President and Vice President of the
United States. It follows either this assump
tion of power is wholly unauthorized
by the Constitution, or that the Slates so ex
cluded from voting were oat of the Union by
reason of ibis rebellion, and have Dever been le
gitimately restored. lam fnlly satisfied that
were never ont of the Union, and that their
relations thereto have been legally and constitu
tionally restored. . . __
I ud forced to the conclusion that the joint re
solution which deprives them of the right to have
their votes for President and Vice Preside--
ceived and conntcd b in conflict with th*r, *
stitntion, and that Congress has no more power
to reject their votes,than those of the States which
have been uniformly loyal to the Federal Union.
It is worthy of rema k that if tbe States whose
inhabitants were recently in rebellion were legally
and constitutionally organized and restored to
tbclr rights prior to March 4th, 18o<, os I am
satisfied they were, the only legitimate
authority' the election for President and Vice
President held herein must' be derived from the
government instituted before that period, and it
dearly follows that all Slate govern
ments organized in those Btates under acts
ol Congress for that purpose and under
military control are illegitimate and of no vali
dity whatever, and In tbat view the votes cost
In those Stales for President and Vice President
in pursuance of acts .passed since March 4th,
1867, and in obedience to the so-called reconstruc
tion acts of Congress,cannot be legally received
and counted, while the only votes in those
Btotes tbat c(in be legally cast and
counted, wIU be those cast in pur
suance of the laws In force in the several,
Stales prior to the legislation by Congress upon
’ the subject of reconstruction. .
I cannot refrain from directing your special at
tention to the declaration contained In the joint
resolution, that none of the States whose inhabi
tants were lately in rebellion shall bo entitled to
representation in the Electoral College, if it is
meant by this declaration that no State is to .be
allowed to vote for President and Vice-President,
all of whose people were engaged in the late Re
bellion, it is apparent that no one of the States
will be excluded rom voting, since it is well
hnown that in every Southern Slate there were
many inhabitants who not only did not partici
pate'in the Rebellion, but who actually took part
m its suppression, or refrained from giving It any
aid or countenance. I, therefore, conclude that
the true meaning of the. joint resolution is that
no Btate, a portion of whoso inhabitants were en
cased in the Rebellion, Unfll be perlititted to par
ticipate in the Presidential election,-except upon
tbo terms and conditions therein prescribed.
Aesnminp this to be the true construction* of
the resolution, the inquiry becogaes pertinent:—
May those northern States, a portion of whose
inhabitants were actually in the rebellion, be pre
vented, at the discretion of Congress, from hav
ing their electoral votescoanted? It is well known
that part of vtiieUnhabitants of New York and a
portion of the inhabitants of Virginia were alike
engaged'in the rebellion. Yet it is equally well
known that Virginia, as well as" New York, was
at all times during the war recognized by. .the
Federal Government asn State in tne Union, bo
clearly that npon the termination of hostilities,
it was not oven deemed necessary for ger resto
ration that a, provisional governor should. ,be
appointed. Yet, according to this .joint re'sblu
tlon, the people of Virginia, unless they comply
with the terms It prescribes are denied, the right
of voting for President and Vice President, while
the‘people’ of New York,'a, portion ef Jhd’ih
habitants of-whichStatewere also in-Y-ebellion,
are permitted to have their electoral votes count
ed without undergoing the process of reconstruc
tion presented for Virginia. ’.’New York is no
more a State than Virginia, the one Is. as much
entitled to be represented in theTSlectorai College
as the other. .If Congress has. the .power to de
prive Virginia of this right,: it-can exercise the
same authority with respect to New York or any
other of the Thus the result of the Pre
sidential election may be controlled and deter
mined by Congress, and the .people be. deprived
of their right under the Constitution to choose a
President and Vico, President of the United
States. If Congress were to provide by law that
the votes of none of the States should be re
ceived and counted if cast for a candidate who
differed in political sentiment with a majority of
the two Houses,such legislalibh would at. once
be condemned by the country as an -unconstitu
tional and revolutionary usurpation of power. -
•It would, however, be exceedingly difficult to
find in tho Constitution’ any more authority for
the passage of the.joint-resolution nndefi con
sideration than for an enactment looking directly
to I lhe -rejectiou-of aU votes.not.iii accordance
with- the political preferences of a majority of
Congress: No power exists in the Constitution
authorizing the joint resolution or the supposed
Jaw, the "only difference being that one would bo
more -palpably unconstitutional and revolutionary
tbon tbo other. Bo{h would rest upon the
R'idlcalerror|thatCongrcas baa tbe power tojsre
acrlbo terms and conditions to tbe right of the
people of the Btatea tb cast their Totes for Presi
dent and Vico President. From the reasons thus
Indicated, I am constrained to retorn the joint re
solution tb'tho Bcnate for such further action
thereon ae’Congress may deem necessary.

General Jacob m. Campbell, Bepubll
cau CttnUiduto for Surveyor Gen
eral .
General Campbell was bom in Allegheny
township, Somerset county, Pennsylvania, on
the 20th day of November, 1821; consequently
he will be forty-seven years old next Novem
ber, At an early age ho was apprenticed to
the printing business in Bomeiset, Pennsyl
vania. After mastering the “art preservative
of arts” he emigrated to Pittsburgh, when he
‘iworked at case" for some time. He. next
found his way to New Orleans, and into an
other printing office. Tired of the “compos
ing stick and rule,” he tried his hand at steam
boating,first as a deck hand,and subsequently
as clerk, mate and part owner of a vessel.
In 1847 we find him in the iron business at
Brady’s Bend. In 1851 he followed the tide
of emigration to California, remaining
there but a short time. In 1853, we find him
in Johnstown, Pa,, assisting in the construc
tion oi the .mammoth Cambria Iron Works,
with which establishment he was connected
up to the breaking out of tho war. In 1861,
he was among the first to enroll himself as a
volunteer, to defend the flag of his country,
and belonged to the first Company that
entered Camp -Curtin.- Upon the arrival
of the company in Harrisburg, and the
organization of the Third Regiment of Pa.
Vois, to which his company was attached,
Lieut Campbell was' appointed Quarter
master of the Regiment which posi
‘ lion he ■■ 'filled —with-'credit™ to himself
and to the satisfaction of the officers and men
of his regiment, as all those who re
main Will testify. He was mustered out of
service on the 28th of July, 1861, and on the
30th of the same month was com missioned
by Gov. Curtin to raise a regiment The
regiment was recruited mainly through CjL
Campbell’s individual exertions, and upon
being organized was designated the 54th. His
regiment was the escort of honor, through
the city of Washington, to the remains of the
lamented Colonel Cameron (brother of Hon.
Simon Caiheron), who fell at the first Bull
Run battle. On the 29th of March, 1862,
Colonel Campbell was ordered to occupy the
line o the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, .
from North Mountain Station, fifty-six
miles westward to the South Branch of
the Potomac. In that position ,the execu
tive aB well as the military abilities of the
Colonel were constantly called into requisi
tion. How well he performed his arduous
and multitudinous duties in this trying posi
tion, the officers of the B. andO.R. R.,as well
as his superiors tn the military service, do
not hesitate to declare that but for his energy
and sleepless watchfulness, many miles of
the road would have been destroyed. On
the 25th of December, 1862, he was
relieved from duty along the railroad;
and on the 6th of March, 1863, was
assigned to the command of the 4th
Brigade, Ist Division, Bth Army
Corps. In 1864, Gen. Sigel took command
of the Department of West Virginia, and in a
re-organization of the troops CoL Campbell,
at his own request, was returned to the com
mand of his regiment, and took an active
part in the battle of New Market, occupying
the left of the line. His regiment suffered
severely and was the last to leave the field.
But for the determined stand made by CoL
Campbell, Sigel’s army would have been
routed and demoralized. In his official report
of the battle he acknowledged the valuable
services of CoL Campbell in a very handsome
and flattering manner. A deserved compli
ment to a deserving officer. Gen. Sigel also
took occasion to thank CoL Campbell in
person. . “My God! Colonel Campbell, I
wish I had known you better!" General
Bigel exclaimed, rushing to Col. Campbell
and grasping his hand with both of his own,
after the tumult of battle had subsided. The
Colonel and his regiment took a prominent
part in the battle of Piedmont, under Gen.
Hunter. He was brevetted a Brigadier-Gen
eral for bravery and “fitness to command,”
in this battle, and again assigned to the com
mand of a brigade. He also took an active
part in Hunter’s celebrated “Lynchburg
raid," his command' suffering heavily in the
attack upon Lynchburg. When Colonel
Mulligan fell at Winchester, Gen. Campbell
took command of the division, and con
tinued in command until, by severe
losses in killed arid wounded, it was consoli
dated into a brigade, which he afterwards
commanded. He also participated ia the en
gagements in the Shenandoah, uuder the gal
lant PhiL Sheridan, winning other and new
laurels while with that intrepid chieftain.
Gen. Campbell was mustered out of the
service in the fall of 1864, having been in the
army almost three years and a half. He was
never absent from his command except three
weeks, sitting as a member of a Court of
Inquiry, at Wheeling, Va., and had but two
“leaves ef absence” during his whole period
of service, one for ten and the other for
twenty days. „ . „
The political record of Gen. Campbell will
also bear examination. Brought up a Jack
son Democrat* he voted for Polk and Dallas
in 1844, hut in 1848, seeing the determined
encroachments of the slavery propagandists,
he voted fer the free soil candidates, Van
Buren and .Adams, and’in 1852, again voted
'for-'the free soil nominees,-Hale and Julian;
and in ■1856 was- the delegate from Cambria
county to the Fremont Convention. In 1859,
the Republicans of Cambria' county presented
him to their district conference as their choice
for tie. Senatorial nomination, and three
years ago he.was unanimously selected again
as the choice ef.the Union party of Cambria,
for Btate Senator, but faffed to receive thei
nomination from the district conference upon
either Occasion, not, however, from want of
appreciation of his worth and. services as a
citizen and§ s a brave and meritorious soldier.'
On the 4i7th of August I{J65, General
Campbell wls nominated for Surveyor Gen
eral by the Republican party, and in October
of the same year, was elected over Colonel
Linton, his competitor, by a large- majority!
For over twdyeaTS he has administered the
duties of his office with recognized ability
and to the satisfaction of all parties; .and ha?
brought up a large amount of unfinished and
intricate business. In March last, he was
unanimously renominated, by the Repub
lican State Convention, for the office he now
so ably and satisfactorily fills. A unanimous
re-nomination from a State Convention of
either party,- is no small compliment to any
man, and no . one within our recollection
except General Campbell and his. colleague
on the State ticket ever before received such
a marked endorsement.
Such, in brief, iB a harried sketch of the
lifeandßervicerofone-bffPennsylvania’s no—
blest Eonß.- He is first found a “printer’s
devil,” a “jour,” a “deck hand" on a.steam
boat, a “clerk,” “mate” and “part owner of

of three long, weary, years, he waa honored

position long . and douoly earned in
command of a brigade and division, and by
gallantry in the field. Tima it will beseen
that General Campbell cornea
working class, and ia emphatically, a working
man. * ~
His social characteristics never fail to
create the warmest friendships and a lasting,
impression. He is a shrewd business man
and a useful citizen—a man endo with
strong common sense, and rarely falls in ms
judgment of men and measures—is well read,
and familiarly acquainted with all the in
ternal workings of the great machinery or
our. government.. ■ Among the ablest articles
on the subject of our national finances, was
one from his pen, written during the early
part of last winter. He is a genial compa
nion, a clever,, whole-souled, honest man,
strictly temperate in bis habits, and that he
will be re-elected by an increased majority, is
already beyond a peradventure.
Tbirleentli Ward e.raiit and Colfax
Club.
A Jorge meeting of toe Republican citlzenß of
the Thirteenth Ward was held last night, at the
Dortbeast comer of Ninth and Spring Garden
streets, to form a Grant and Colfax Campaign
Clnb. The outside of the bulldlng.was bril
liantly illuminated by Chinese lanterns, and on
the corner was, displayed a large transparency,
with the words ‘'Grant and Colfax Club, Thir
teenth Ward.” The room itself, which U a very
large one, is fitted up in an exceedingly beautiful
manner. Around ibis walls are placed top por
traits of Grant, Sheridan, Sherman, Thomas,
Geary and otoer prominent Union generals. The
platform Is festooned in front with the National
colors, thus making a very pleasing effect. A
band of music Was also in attendance.
John L. Shoemaker, Esq., was temporary
Chairman. _■ , . ,
The following permaneift officers were elected:
President. —E. H. Filler. ■ , _ ,
Vice Presidents- —J. X.-—Shoemaker, Lewis
Knlnpe. W. H, Vogdes, Joseph -Hemphill, John
•tv Wi odward. John P. Wilkinson, Samuel Allen
and John Kennedy.
Recording secretary. —James Lee.
Corresponding Secretary. • —William Palmer.
A letter was read from Hon. Leonard Myers,
stating that he regretted being unable to be pre
sent, but that toe times looked auspicious, and
there were many persons hitherto acting with the
Democratic party who -would vote for Grant and
Collax. ‘‘Let ns have peace,” says oar modest
lender, and the people say so. They will trust
A letter was also read from General Tyndale,
the Republican nominee for Mayor, stating that
that they had his best wishes for toe formation
of the club, and If the Republicans only work
they will be successful. .
A. Wilson Hemzey,Esq.,the Republican nomi
nee for State Senator In toe Second District, was
introduced. He said: , , .
Gentlemen and Fellow-citizens: I thank you for
this greeting. Allow me, on toe first occasion of
my publicly appearing before you since my nom
ination, to’return you my thanks for that nomi
nation. Allow me, before I proceed, as it has
been stated that 1 am pledged to certain persona
in toe election for United States Senator, to dis
tinctly Btate that I am pledged to no man. I will
vote tor no man that will not satisfy my consti
tuents and reflect honor on this great State.
We are about commencing qr Presidential cam
paign and both parties hive selected their
leaders The Republicans desire to gather toe
fruits of a lasting peace. Let us have peace,they
say, and in response we say so be it, thrice,amen.
Gar hearts yearn for peace. When Sherman
marched to the sea. we held it as one of toe first
steps toward peace. When Grant by his bril
liant achievements dazzled the world, and, since
esteemed as the greatest soldier of the world,
took Ricbmord and forced Lee to surrender, wo
looked forward to the time when toe djum would
cease to roll, and we could say peace and equal
rigb ts to all. \Three cheers were given here for
G There was never the time when the great heart
of toe Republican party did not pray for peace;
aye, even in toe midst of distractiog war we
called for an honorable peace. We will get peace
by distributing justice to all. That is what the
Republican party demands. Shall they have it ?
The Pemocralic party at New fork, by nomi
nating Seymour and Blair, two great monstrosi
ties have revealed their secret—which is to re
vive toe old curSe of slavery, and let it ruin the
country. There are. doubtless, some of toe
whiles of the South who acquiesce In the new
order of things, but they are few and far be
tween The Bouto is looking to the Democratic
party to repudiate toe debt, to re-enslave the
negro, to claim compensation for their confis
cated property, and to reopen the bleeding
wounds of our distracted country.
They talk of peace while there is no peace all
the while. A Democratic victory would destroy
commercial confidence, mechanical Industry, and
renew toe Btrile. Peace can only be obtained
through and by toe Republican party, who pat
down the rebellion. Are yon willing to give
power to the men who starved yonr prisoners,
murdered their captives, tried to burn down ho
tels, spread infectious diseases among you,robbed
your Treasury, and perpetrated the most horrible
outrages known in any country? They cried in
war reace, when we could have no peace bat
through national dishonor. let us
have war. The rebels say let U 9 have war.
The Democracy say so, for it will repudiate the
national indebtedness and wipe out
the Republican party, therefore let us
have war. Read their platform. What does it
mean but anarchy and war ? Will not toe de
cision that toe reconstruction acta of Congress
are unconstitutional lead to anarchy ? To repu
diate toe national debt! Will a victory of toe
Democratic par tv bt'more likely to procure peace
than one by toe Republican party? Our platform
is the Declaration of Independence, toe principles
of our lathers, of toe sainted Washington, of toe
men who fought through toe dark and stormy
date of toe Revolution. It is the principles of
Jefferson. Jackson, Madißon, and Monroe, the
true vitality of which was justice and equal rights
to all. It is well known that four-fifths of the
Democratic Convention was composed of the
rebel element. _ . TT ; , . •
Who drew np their platform ? VaUandlgham,
Wade Hampton. Forrest, Brick Pomeroy, and
their fellows. One of these men said at a meet
ing-in Virginia: “Men who fought in the Confe
derate armies, in toe election of Beymonr and
Blair yon will win all you fought for in the war.”
A victory of that party would be over the graves
of your'soldiers. There is scarcely a home In
this city that la not draped In mourning for the
lost add slain.' Shall these emblems of mourning
be mocked at? Will the father mock toe me
mory of the last souj whom he sent to battle?
WIU y*u affiliate with these unrepentant ene
mies. aye, With the very men who pulled the
trigger that sent him to eternity? Yon, witn
his mother, have planted toe green flowers over
his grave, watered it with yonr tears; and will
yon now stand over tost grave and extend a
hand to unrepentant rebels? Aye, even make
that grave a stepping-stone? . Never! never.
Have-eur brave men died in vain? 'lf so, destroy
the nfonumehte that commemorate their deeds;
ersße the inscription from toe tomb-stone; tear
out of yonr hearts every thought toat'eomea in
bleeding remembrance of the loved ones, and
write, “Fools! fools! you have died in vaiu!” Are
you ready to do this?
The speaker continued at some length, plead
ing the cauße for which so many thousands h *ve
died in an eloquent manner . He was followed
by several other speakers, and toe meeting ad
