Till: UMtKrKKSIi.M'EU STATES.
A great deal of iuss is made just now
by Johnson and his satellites about Con
tre's unIertakin2 to meet and transact
business with seventeen States unrcpre
Fented in the House of Representatives.
In the Senate ocly ten are unrepresented,
and they because of their own bloody and
terrible reuellwu. The seven additional
States tint are not represented in the
House had ample notice of the meeting
of Congress, and could and should have
elected representatives. As thej have
not clioseu to do so, the fault rests with
thcrnsclvc3. Six of these States have not
yet elected their members. The seventh
has done bo, but the sole member is ab
Font. Were all of the seven fully repre
sented in the House it would not make
any difference in the slate of parties there.
Three of these are New England States
New Hampshire, Hhode Island and Con
necticut electing eight members, all of
whom will be Republicans. It 13 rather
amusing to find the absence of these Yankee
members made a cause of complaint
against the House by the copperheads.
California is another of the absent States,
and het members, too, will bo Republi
cans. It is cot ihe fault of Congress that
these States arc not represented. The
whole seventeen of them could have been,
as the way was open. Had the ten rebel
States never withdrawn their delegations
to wago war against the republic, they
would not now bo absent. Had thev ac
cepted the terms offered them last euni
nicr by Congress, they could ail have been
represented, as Tennessee was. If they
choose now to accept the terms offered by
Congress they may be represented. Their
absenco is only of importance to them
selves, and docs not in auy way invalidate
the authority of Congress. It is tbc bu
siccss of the States themselves to attend
to the matter of representation.
If by any neglect of their own they go
unrepresented, they cannot plead that
fact as an argument against the authority
cf the Congress from which they choose
to be absent. The meeting cf a new Con
gress promptly on the first day of its term
will have the useful effect of including
all the States to elect their members in
advance of that time, eo that such occur
rences as the incompleteness exhibited by
Congress in 1SG1 may not be repeated,
and Congress tuay always be ready to act
in any important emergency. AVe should
like to see all tha States elect their Rep
resentatives on the same day, as they all
now vote for President in one day, and
doubtless this will in the end be the re
sult. The long interregnum of Congress
in 1SG5 was seized upon by President
Johnson as an excuse for usurping power
to arrange the whole subject of recon
duction to suit himself, and in like man
ner in 1SG1 President Lincoln wa3 com
pelled to act without authority of law un
til Congress could meet to sanction Lis
nets. If there be any one to blame now,
11 must ue tne ctates mat remain unrep
resented through their owa neglect.

sTiurrED or i'atiio.viui-:.
President Johnson Cat's himself sud
denly embarrassed by the bill regulating
the tenure of civil officers to an extent
that he could not have foreseen, and we
are free to confess that the practical ope
ration of the bill is far better than we
had anticipated. The bill, in fact, seems
to have been drawn with remarkable
shrewdness and skill. It turned out of
office, at twelve o'clock on Monday last,
every man wno had btcn so taitiiy ap
pointed by Johnson during the congress
tonal rcccrs, aud whom the Senate has
not confirmed. Of the extent or these
appointments no one appears to have had
a correct idea; but the truth appears to
be that Juhnson had Labored with eo
much zeal as to have turned out of office
every Republican who held a commission
aud to have appointed instead of these
men cither rank copperheads or member;
of the Urcad and Uuiter Rrigade.
No sooner had the commissions been
thus issued to new men, than these John
souian zealots turned out every Rcpubli
can within their reach who held a post
tion as deputy, or clerk, or messenger, or
anything elso. In bhort, the entire sum
of the vast patronago of the national gov
ernmcnt had been handed over to the
Democratic party, to be urcd agaiust the
Republicans in the elections. Regular
assessments were levied in a!! the public
offices, to aid the copperhead cause, and
yet not ouc of the.?c men held cfiicc le
gaily. All held by the usurpation of the
President, and in defiance of the cousti
tulienal restraint given the Senate to pre
vent just suiu' abuse.
AH 01 tne commissioned oliiccrs were
legislated out of office by Congress.
That much was within their power, for
these men had not oceu confirmed, and
their origiaal appoiutuicnt was illegal.
Unfarluuately, all the copperheads and
time servers appointed to the minor offices
hold on, and there is no power to remove
them until some proper official undertakes
the task. The Senate is in session, aud
ready to receive nominations and act up
on them ; but, meantime, all tha couimis
sioncd offices are vacant, and Johnson
cannot appuiut Copperheads, because the
Senate will not confitni them. None of
the rejected nomiuees can again be comU
nutcd. If the Senate should stand firm.
Johnson must sui render; but he thus fa
remaius obstinate, aud some of his latest
appointments are atrocious, consisting of
the most obnoxious and blatant rebel
sympathizers.

London, March 7. Dispatches rcceiv
cd during the day from Dublin aud Cork
give the following particulars cf the last
outbreak in Ireland :
A fight took place on Tuesday night a

lcaviug three of their number dead on the
field, and leaving fifteen prisoners
The barracks of the police at Promore,
county Down, in the north, had been fired
by an incendiary, and totally destroyed.
The manager of the Union Bank and a
mounted police messenger Lad been shot
ia Dromorc.
Reports from Dublin state that the va
rious bauds of Fenians appeared to be
well supplied with rations, and they Bcem
to haV6 rihen suddenly in all parts of Ire
land. They attacked the ccast guard station
at Killelagh, in county Clare, and took
away their arms. Assaults have been
made upon the stations at Carjfort, in

Cross, and the Fenians supplied them
selves with arms from all these places.

THE CLKIiii OF THE HOL'SK,
The re-election for tho third time of
Hon. Edward M'Phcrson, clerk of the
IIouso of Representatives, is an honor
well deserved. Mr. M'Phcrson served
as a representative in Congress for the
XVIth district, when Pennsylvania had
no more useful or reliable member
than he. He is an extraordinary man
of buisness, as well aa a gentleman of
great culture and cd actional polish.
We congratulate Mr. M'P. on his con
tinued success in life and politics, as veil
because he is a Pennsylvanian, aud a mujj
of large dcscrving3 as that he is an ox
editor, in whose career we have an abid
ing sympathy.
