CONTRABAND SONGS.
Echoes of Freedom qnd Slavery,
SONGS OF THE SAVANNAH FIREMEN.
SPIRITUAL HYMNS OF THE SEA
ISLANDS.
THE AMERIOM PEA.S.A.NTRY
(Special Correspondent* of The Press.)
HUGGLBS, ST. HRLBNA ISLAND, S. U.
While a few days resident in this cosy settle.
Ment,,l. have picked up a collection of lyrical and
literary ourlositiee, obaracteristic of .a very ohs
raetesistic neighborhood, and interesting to all those
at the North who study the popular tone of the war,
as echoed between Slavery and Freedom. The siet.-
tlement mentioned is a landing-place half a dohen
miles across from Beaufort, glorying in one old
plantation.house, now a cheerful home for New
• Englanders and Pennsylvanians, and a collection
of freedmen's cabins and houses, the whole named
impromptu after the estimable chief of this planta
tion, and so to, be designated hereafter, when this
rude hamlet shall own a post office. In Southern
times this plantation belonged to the Rev. Dr.
Fuller, a'consin to the large slave-owning clergy
man of Maryland, and a Unionist from ohoioe, it is
hinted, though a Secessionist from compulsion. He
bore excellent repute as a master, and is still re.
membered in one or two of the spiritual hymns. A
wide gasps:iamb, like the Slough of Despond, sepia
rites the old system from the new—Parson Faller's
psalm-singing " happy plantation" of slavery from
the modern "free farms" of General Saxton. Let us
return to the lyrical subject, premising a fee' notes
upon the general character of negro songs.
POPULAR NBGRO MINSTRELSY.
It Must be confessed, even by those who do not
like it, that the plantations, while giving to the
country its supply of cotton, have also afforded the
staple of our popular music and the greater part of
the original musical Idea of America. Take away
the negro songs, and we have little native music
left. Crushed herbs give fragrance, and music, like
tears and heartaches, seems to be one of the pro
ducts of slavery; but the negroes are also a musical
people In themselves, however barbarously they
may have begun thegamut. Minstrelsy and slavery
have been old yokefellows, and the echo of the
work-a-day slavosong has long haunted the ear of
the world, surviving the rubbish of statesmanship
and other things more easily forgotten than music
and 'wrong. Through Northern musicians, who
have been listeners on the plantations or creative
enough to frame a song In the mood of the negro's
favorite minor key, we have caught some of the
best of our tunes at second-hand from his forlorn
sorrow! or rebounding liveliness. His life about
the old homestead, and on the "old" plantation,
"way down in Tennessee," or wandering In Ala
bama and Louisiana, appears familiar in these
songs, though some of them are inaccurate and
clumsy compared to the real life and music of
which they are only the imitations, if others are
more regular, full, and sweet than the original.
"Nally was .a lady," one of the most mintiest of dit
ties, has been the favorite of a generation. It Is the
• dirge of a disconsolate boatman on the Mississippi :
" Way down de Mississippi floating,
Long time I trabelled on de way ;
All night de cottonwood a-totin',
Sing for my true love-all de day.
Nelly was a lady,
Last night she died ;
Toll de bell for lovely Neil,
My dark Virginny bride."
Every ear is acquainted with this beautiful dirge,
as well as with the careless pathos of " Oh, Susan
nah," the weary plaint of "Old Virginny Shoy
"The Swanee River," "The Old Kentucky Home,"
and many other such compositions unnecessary to
quote, brit representing the old giantlike:Mal school
of aegro minstrelsy before the outbreak of the war.
A soldier in Savannah hummed what may be sup
posed to have been a souvenir of the march through
the plantations--a negro gallant's song :
"Sweet potato posy,
And the rose of Alabama!" •
This le a white tune_ to a black burden, very old and
pretty, as every one knows, and only a convert to
the cotton fields.
" Jig-tunes," " walk.arounds," and vivacious bal•
lade, all more or less inspired by the plantation, but
often utterly inferior to the real, ,are still parts of
the repertoire of a gory popular entertainment.
The sentimental songs are likely to , have been, in
some instanbee, plagiarized front Europe and oat of
the immeical ()legatee, as well as colored In the cabin
—but they have been readily adapted Into the home
melody of the negro. None have been greater ad
mirers of thisMinstrelay than those who were for
merly the apologists and favorers of the lustitu.
Um of slavery. The heaviness or the made often •
sadly belled the words in praise of-";masse" or
missus"—for the musician could not be as untrue
as the versifier. In the multitude of songs, hints of
the slave-sale and thewhipping.post eouldnot be es
caped. It is curious how much the mirth and sen
timent of the country have been supplied oat of the
servitude and oppression of the black, comedians win
ningtheir greatest applause by beooming more negro
than the negroes themselves, and, with all the ge
nius of a despised and everywhere persecuted rare,
making their daily fame and profit.
WAR SONGS.
The war seemed to have found us as unprepared
in song as in arms—the Anglo-Saxon American
mind slow to form its spirit into music, and the old
national songs too stately for the camp and the
march of the modern volunteers. Negro genii's
(such as It is) again filled the vacuum, and was
adopted in the camp. Excepting Root's favorite
war song of "Rally Round the Flag," the "John
Brown Song," and "Dixie's Land," they are the
Only proverbially popular and characteristic tunes
of the war. "Dixie's Land" has been credited to
Foster, the parent composer of Northern minitrelly,
but its genius Is so undeniably African that the
claim is worthy of Investigation. None of our tunes
were better fitted for the rough service of a mush
chorus ; with words of spirit, few could be so in
spiring in a way; and it is not to be wondered that
the rebel Albert Pike, of Arkansas, gave it eloquent
words, and made it a Southern song. The tune of
"John Brown's Body" was a common one in the
African churches South and North, to the old
words " When my poor body lies a-mouldering la
the grave." Transplanted to Kansas, the hymn
took its present shape, and new its strains can be
heard in every camp and la every free plantation of
the South—
" John Brown's body lies a-mouldering in the grave,
John Brown's body Iles a-mouldering in the grave,
John Brown's body lies &mouldering in the grave,
But his soul's marching on."
It is Impossible to wrest from the negro the credit
of this lyric, which le alone inifilllent to prove that
he Is a muslolan.
PLANTATION RAW...DS—TER SAVANNAH FIRE
ERN'S SONGS.
Those who doubt that the negro has the ability to
invent ,some of the sweetest songs which bear his
character, might be improved by a visit to the
South. Composers in quest of themes for popular
songs, and not scrupulous to plagiarize, might
gather fruitful suggestions and Some whole ideas
from fragments of miscellaneous song floating about
in the native negro minstrelsy of the South. A few
who form.unjuse notions of the musical gift, will be
surprised that Some of the best of these are nothing
more than simple, sweet, unambitious plaints In the
minor key, - wlth very small tendenoy to variety or
power, but much more genuine and characteristic
than the popular imitations. Others are quite as
wild and tame, alternately, as the negro song can
be imagined. Calling them "profane songs," we
only admit a distinction which seems to have been
made by the pious freedmen of the Sea Islands, who
seldom or never sing what they call a "fiddle
song." The Mississippi contraband, called " Ole
Shady," is a capital jubilee of this class :
I've got a wife and I've got a baby,
Way up North in Low Olinady,
Won't day smile when day see Ole Shady,
Comin',
Hail! mighty day.
Good-bye , Massa Jeff—good•bye, Minas Stephen,
'Sense d ie nigga for Lakin' his 'Gavin',
Guest: byana.by you'll see Ole Aby,
Comln', comtrtv,
Hall! mighty day.
For another very scampish and Subtle ditty, Whith
may be denominated "The Lady's Garden," we are
indebted to the notebook of &journalist:
" Walk along, walk along,
In de ladies' garden;
Walk along, Chalk along,
In de ladles' garden.
1, Old Ben Cusick lapin , on de grout'',
In de ladles' garden,

And lot de ladles , orals."
This was &common banjo Bong In the region round
Now Orleans. "Storr batik? , 1t will be apprehend
ed, 10 the negro laborer's term for "fall back."
The black firemen of Savannah are eminently
happy in the number and Spirit of their songs. They
have, perhaps, a hundred by heart, *doh they oho
rue upon parade•days and at fires, each Company
with its own set of tunes, its own leader, and doubt
less in the growth of time, necessity and Invention,
Its own composer. One of the sweetest and most
genuine of these firemen's ballads (and possibly one
of the prettiest of negro songs generally) Is a
"steamboat Song," a slaVe's farewell to the " yal•
low gal. , ' Fart of the mud" is little better then re
citative, but the chorus is melodious and touching:
HEAVB AWAY.
Heave away—heave away
I never loved a white gal, and I hope I never will,
Heave away—heave away
I'd rather court a chambermaid than work Waal:try
Clay.
' Heave away—away ! Heave away-away!
'fano' gal, I want to go.
Heave away—heave away ,
De Captain's on de quarter - deck wld de smglass In
his hand,
Heave sway—p.ava away 1
De ladies in de cabin, and trouble in de mind,
Reeve away—away I Heave away —away!
Ysillo , gal, I want to go 1
In the review of the firemen by Gen. Sherman,
different words, expressive of. the loyal feelings
of the blacks, were adapted to this tune by their
foremen, The firemen's songs are for a considerable
part the creatures of a ready invention,' and, like
Most all of their kind, are made lip principally of
chorus, which a necessarily ignorant and bookiess
tradition finds it easiest to preserve. Many of the
Choruses strike the ear strongly, as for instanee
"Last night the fire broke out in Yamscraw,
To.hoot ! To-whoot To-whoo
In imitation of the night-owl.
Not much can be said for the general melody of
these compoeitions ; but they have a spades of har
mony, and are sung with much stress and variety
of vocal effect. A native composer, James Lewis,
who between whiles-of his daily business'of carpen
tering, invented and helped to invent a number of
these catches for his own fire company, obliged me
with , a few specimens, and an explanation of their
musical principle. They are distinguished by time
rather than tune; and for the moat part require
different voices in chorus, so that It is something of
an art to manage them, "Juana—hey," one of the
common catches going to a fire, is improvised to
suit occasions. It begins
- Jurande—hey !
Come along, I say !
Jurande—hey !
I heard a mighty racket,
, Jurande—hey I ,
The following steamboat song has the character
of an air, withe faint touch of sweetness :
Cynthey, I am bound away,
Bound away, to Florida!
•Cynthey, I am bound away,
Don't you say die boat won't go.
Ornthey, am bound away,
Prettiest gal In Yamaoraw ;
Cynthey, I am bound away,
Prettiest gal I ever saw.
Bound away, bound away, &c.
A tedious song, called "Sally Brown," to be said
and sung ad /*Rom, is unintelligibly rakish
Sally Brown !
Look here, old lady
What's de matter
Seven year I court de widow.
Come along, my Creole lady.
Hey I my Sally.
Here Is part of a pastoral lyric :
Hard laws in old Virginny 1
Stalin' sheep is a lumen' matter!
a • • •
You come down with a bunch of roses.
Did you hear what de white folks say I
An unpopular negro trader came to Savannah,
and the firemen made a song about him :
" Whoever heard of Wright, de trader I
He sold my wife mid seven children,
But when he sold 'em he sold a lady
Ladles, stint you sorry?
Packet sails to-morrow,
Sails to Loosiana,
Ladles, flint you sorry?
See. de tradeigot met
Ladles, fare you well.
Curious as it may seem, the Savannah firemen
have a John Brown song, obi as the martyrdom at
Harper's Ferry. From the ludicrous jumble In
which it was disguised, here is a fragment of earnest
meaning :
Old John Brown, oome down,
Oome down,
Old John Brown, come down,
Oome down,
Orme down to Harper'a Ferry.
Hang me ! oh, hang me !
Strike de bolt, and otrike It soon ;
Oat won't stop de battle.
* • • • *
Take de war, and rush it through,
0, Lord ! Sally.
Take de war, and rush it through,
0, Lord ! Sally.
With this for a text, it is not difficult" to prove
that the negroes had some appreoiation of the na
ture and cause of the war. ,
Concerning: their vocalism, a word will truffle%
Single voices are poor, but what with yodelling
and hoarse &immuring,
.the entire effeot of their
songs is strangely enjoyable, and, with a good lead
er, they give a certain regularity and mile to the
most outlandish, irregular, and unmusical of their
songs. Nothing is so bad or so good.
VTR SPIRITUAL HYMN'S ;
as they are termed by the more intelligent elders of
the Sea Islands, comprise by far the greater part of
this collection, of original slave literature and music.
•No others are sung by the freedmen of the Islands,
and many of them are equally the songs of the black
boatman and the ()hurt% member. What are called
fiddle tunes," together with songs referring' to a
former condition of slaverY, are gravely ignored.
An affecting ballad of the latter class has been pre
served by its piety, but obviously is seldom sung,
It bl a 'dying slave girl's farewell to the world,
chanted In a sad undertone.. The lines are gent
rally repeated twice or thrice in the singing
POOR Boors.
Poor Rosie! Poor gal!
•
Poor Rosie ! Poor gal! .
Heaven shall be my home.
Pse had hard trial in my way ;
Heaven shall be my home !
- drama what massa want wid ma ;
Ali ! heaven shall be my home !
No more peck o' corn for 1110,
Heaven shall be my home!
No more driber's horn for me,
Oh ! heaven shall be my home !
No more drlberla lash for me,
Hell Vela shall be my home !
No more driberis lash for me,
Ah heaven shall be my home
When I walk I walk wid God,

Before I spend one day in hell,
Al!! heaven shall be my home!
I sing and pray my soul away !
Heaven shall be my home !
Peor Rosie ! Poor gal !
Ah ! heaven shall be my home
The song, thus. given, Is not complete, though
gathered from the various imperfect versions ex
tant—the verses, originally 'of two lines, being
placed in double verse whore the ideas seem to
alma. Its rare merit is a natural expression of
feeling, every word filling its place in the grief of
the singer. The following is 'more quaint and not
lees pathetic, and is held in superstitions reverence
and love by the blacks.—it was but lately that a
little boy died, singing
"GOOD LORD, REMEMBER MID,"
Good Lord '
, remember me ! •
I pray my Lord, as the years roll round,
Good Lord, remember me !
Oh, Death, he is a little man,
Arid he go from do , to doT
And he ant some sonl and he wounded some,
And he lersome soul to pray.
No man can die like a Jaen ;
He lay down in de grave,
He closed his eyes, He folded his arms,
And died with a free good will.
o God be am de fader, •
And Christ he am de eon ;
Three Spirit and one God ;
And do, Lord, remember me.
O Lord, remember me
I pray to my God as the years roll round,
Do, Lord, remember me.
A comforting lullaby this child's hymn Must have
been to the little sufferer who breathed hie last.
Many songs of the Freedmen are thus devoted to
the grave and the death.hed,and.a kindred one with
the last is the following :
GRAVICTA_RD.
Oh! lay my body In de graveyard,
Sing, oh! graveyard !
Oh! lay my oody In - de graveyard,
Oh! ring, Jerusalem.
Oh.! gran grown-1n de graveyard,
Sing, oh I graveyard
Oh! graveyard, you ought to know me,
Ring, oh ! Jerusalem..
Twin with this ,is another refrain of the grnve
..
yard':
'I know a graveyard,
. Lay dis body down ;
I know a starlight,
Lay dis body down;
I know a moonrise,
Oh nay dis body down.
Bore is the fragment of a deathbed relic :
Illy body is racked white fever
Illy, head aches wid de pain I have;
And I wish I was in de kingdom,
beside my Lord.
The following bears the same aspiration
Mp moders gone to glory,
I want to get dere too,
When de warfare end in hallelujah f
and runs on with but slightly modified repetition
through half a dozen verses. The next has an 001s0
of slavery :
Oh, brother, gib up your right for your heaven,
0 yes, my Lord.
Oh, member, gib up your right for your heaven,
0 yes, my Lord.
But gib me Jesus,
Gib me Jesus ;
You may hab all die wed , —
Gib me Jesus. -
Too Late! , is a hymn of warning against tardy
repentance:
DOI -, sinner, you too late!
Oh where ha' you bin vrhen de bells do MO
Too late ! Too late! , -
De preacher call, you would not come;
Too late! Too late!
De Bible read, you would not hear;
Too late ! Too latel
Dyin' sinner, you too late !
The next fragment hints of resurrection in &joy.
ful spirit
In de morning when I rise,
Tell my Jesus, liu.ddy, oh 4
I wash my hands in do monde. , glory,
Tell myassus, liuddy, oh Pi
And of a similar' character, and with a Spirited
tune, is this Christmas chorus :
" Weep no mtv, Mary ; •
Weep no um', Marta ;
Jesus rise from de dead,
Sunday mornin , ,
Happy miwnint I Glorious' manila' I"
"Don't get weary, member, for Sla world's moat
done," le another pathetic refrain, valuable'only for
the feeling of its chant. But the following, snug to
a rapid melody, and involuntarily accompanied by
the patting of feet and hands, is more a favorite :
wsaiv
Hurryon, my weary mull
I hear from Eteaben to-day.
Hurry on* poor weary Boni 1
- I hear from peaben today.
,
Iffy Bin le forgiven, end . my soul set free,

PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1865.
De belle are ringing_in de oder bright,world,
An' I hear from Heabea to-day ;
I leave my soul In de oder bright World,
An' I hear from Haab= to-day.
Harry on, my weary soul,
1 hear from 'Mahan to-day:
" No man can hinder me," " Religion's so sweet;"
" I no weary yet," " Yes, my Lord, I come," and
like sentences, serve as illustrative titles CO re
peating ohoruses, of which they form the chief part.
The Angel Gabriel, fhe last trumpet, Mary and
Martha, Jordan, Zion; Moses, &0., are never-ending
themes in the black hymnology. The name of Par
son Fuller, the owner of plantations on St. Helena,
frequently appears In a celestial connection, as for
instance:
lielleber build a house
In Paradise; •
Parson Fuller build a hoille
In Paradise, /to. •
"General Sasby," (as Gen. Saxton Is ealled,.the
negroes froui an old habit perveiting almost every
white man's name ' ) has taken the place formerly
accorded to Parson Fuller upoir "Be tree of life."
The song in which this compliment occurs is a great
favorite, and' has a full sounding, harmonious
chorus. The following is its simplest version :
Roam, JOEDAN.
Little children, sittin) on de tree of life,
To hearee when Jordan roll.
Roll, Jordan; roll, Jordin ;
Roil, Jordan, roll !
March, de angel march ;
Maroh, deungel march—
My soul will Moto Heaven above,
When I haareo when Jordan roll I
Little children learn to fear de Lord,
And let your (toys be long ;
'Eon, Jordan, &o.
And let no false or eplteful word
Be found upon your tongue ;
Roll, Jordan, roll, Ike.
Two of the moetimaglnittlre of the regular ohurch
chorale have the teats subjoined
- OH! WHAT A MORNING.
I think I hear my Fader say,
"Call de nations great and email,
Lookee on to God's right hand,
When de stare begin to fall
Sing, Oh, what a morning,
Oh, whats morning,
Oh, what a morning,
When de starc bogba to'faU."
ZINO IMMANUEL.
O. my King Immanuel,
0 Immanuel my King,
Sing Glory be
To my King Immanuel.
We touch one String
And de whole lusabens ring !
Sing Glory be
To my King Immanuel.
It will be remarked that all these songs have
rhythm without rhyme, but MUM 113 left to compen
sate for what seems wanting either in rhyme or rem..
son. This little hymn is one of the most complete,
and is deservs2ly, cherished for its simplicity and
spirit: •
TR& LORD WILL rigovrim
Johoviah ! Hallelujah I
De Lord will purwide.
De cozies hab holes,
An' de birdiestab nests ;
But de Son ob marrhab nowhere
To lay his weary head.
Jehoviah Hallelujah!
De Lord will purvide ;
He Lord He will purvide a place
For de weary head to rest.
•
THE SNOUT.
If it , be not altogether indesoribable, the " shout"
deserves more than a passing notice. Last evening
such an - *aerobe took place in, the short avenue of
huts neighboring the plantation house. After pray
ing and hymning in the regular order of prayer
meeting—the words of the hymn chanted first by the
conductor of the meeting, and then sung from
memory by the others—the "'shout" began in the
growing enthusiasm of "the members."- About
twenty were 'present, under the dismal timbers of an
old hut, and In the murky light of a few tallow can
dles. The first proceeding was a shuflling round.
This increased in vigor and in variety, as the tur
baned heads swayed from right to left in crooked
motions, the leader jumping up and down in the
Centre, shouting " move P , and appearing to keep
all going by the magic, of a contagious frenzy.
Those not belonging to the circle of ahuffiers kept
time by patting their hands and knees, but all joined
in the Bong
Brudder Georgia's gone to glory,
Tak' oar' de eln-alok soil!
This was the principal part of it, but its rolling
effect is not to be understood unless seen and heard,
As a picture, nothing could be stranger than these
shuffling and swaying phenomena, yodelling and
-roaring, and shaking their turbans. .This shout was
like a perpetual motion; d dung_ Into
another, and 1611 , 1031d8 of movements making one.
Hottentot eountenanoth, and others ihieh seemed
the caricatures of all races,` nadeit for one Instant
like something dreamed of—night-mareith and bar
bark.. A mother, holding her babe asleep, took
pa4t In it with great enjoyment to de close, and the
exercise seemed to please and inspire everybody.
Wild as It seemed to a stranger, the rythmtsel•
shuffle had a peculiar decorum, and the fiercest
shouters were, probably the gentlest men. The
shout may be briefly explained as nothing higher
than a religious ciiiiniainment, of as much use phy
sically as morally, Religion has afforded a, large
class of the slaves their only meane.of amusement,
and this amusement is a serious one. Reckoning
the oircumetances of the negro, attentive observers
do not consider it altogether irrational.
In the revival, or " shout," the most poierfal of
all the hymns have their element, and in the half
barbarous frenzy of some of these demonstrations,
their sense (If we can credit all of them with a
meaning intelligible to the white mind) is devoured
to sustain the consuming activity of the religions
exercise, They seem to be composed to salt the
actions of many bodies, or what may be, called re
ligious marching, and are accompanied y the clOse
shuffle of many feet, the march and the song grow
ing more and more rapid or loud in progress. In
this manner a large portion of the African's music
bears character with his physical play, his song
and religion hinting more or less of the terpsichorean,
although anything like fiddle.turies" or out
right dancing are placed under solemn ban in his
Quinlan community. Here is a specimen of the
Shout song, celebrating what it seems Impossible to
tell, unless it be a baptism.
Rain fall and wet Backe Lawton--oh !
Bain fall and wet Becks Lawton—oh
Rook back holy, oh !
Rook back slowly, oh I -
I must cry holy,
- I will cry holy,
And all cry holy.
After this the tune begins again, with a slight
change of verse, declaring 'that the " rain" has
" wet all de members," or " dried Beoka Lawton."
The following are songs
_of the same rousing oha•
ranter.

DIIVILiOPMENTS OP CORRUPTION.
-It seenis very probable that the Legislative inves

our city government w4l expose an amount of cor
ruption which none ot rs than victimized balmy

are to have the usual tmber of protests from lrigh

as that every detail Of their official lives may be

Jostles may screw Iher high-power spectacles,
and merallesslyanalys and dissect. Such things

The pres wiry which is being propeanted, even
in its raw, incipient sttges, inexorably points us to
such a presumption. Already witnesses are testify

the Deputy Oontrollef,i" if he had seen any street
tweepers,st the (pea wiaring diamond pins ?" It is
stated that the street l e mming expenses for the past
year will foot up 88 ,000, whereas a responsible
company Oilers to do the work quite as thoroughly
for 8800,000. The tro4troller testifies that he has

grand historic alifilligiCleitilliT Ea,
event will ever ilitlM am'obrener oat
tine history. On that day the porejeeb 6th-
Government, the representatives of Troia ii
of the United States, consecrated traithirtyletighti
Congress of the nation to Immifitality ; for at font
o'clock in the afternoon the House, by the decides,
vote of 119 to 56, decreed to amend the organic; law
of tide great nation so as evermore to prohibit in.
voluntary eervitude, except for crime. This com
pletes the action of Congress on the proposed
amendment, the Senate having agreed to it by a
prior vote, and netting now remains tut for three
fourths of the State Legislatures to ratify thig
amendment, whelk It will become part of the Cotton
tution.
No one who was witness to the deliberations of the
House yesterday afternoon will ever forget the
scene. it was announced several days la advance
that on Tuesday Mr. Ashley proposed pressing the
question to a vote. It had failed at the last session,
and opinion was very much divided as to lie enemas
were whispered changes of petition on the
part of 50 , I Deno-natio members ' and It watt
ardently hopeallant enough would stayaway to ea
sure its passage, a. 0911,, though they might refine to
record their names la Its tvor. Bat the public wasp:
in doubt, and manifest att Its Internet interest
crowding the galleries and - thranging the eorridole
and ante-moms. Even the repolUnieatillety was
in part taken possession of by the fair sex. 'Z'' ',-
proceedings preliminary to the vote were uninte
resting enough. The House has seldom seemed left
attentive to the hnmedlatebosiness before it.. As we
*watched the eager, expectant faces which lined the
gallerleii,and the careless or otherwise absorbed mart.
ner ci the members, we found ourselves involunta
rily wondering whether these representative: of the
people realized how important a part they were
playing in ahaping their country's future. Mr.
McAlllater's brief, terse statement of the res.-
eon which induced his change of vote was respect
fully heard: He was followed by Mr. Coffroth, of
Pennolivezda, in a similar Strain; but the speech
was read, and the Howie was Inn° mood for listen
ing to •essays. Mr. Miller interjected a protest
against What he chose to consider an infringement
of the Constitution. Dir. Herriolr, of New York,
read a vigorous argument in behalf of settling this
vexed question once and for all. He was succeeded
by a Curious essay from Mr. Brown, of Wisconsin,
who seemed inclined .to indulge a feat of parlia- _
=entity acrobatism by arguing both ways. Mr.
Harding, of Kentucky, was anxious to get
the floor, before Mr. Brown's , speech, and
after a little (kilo-Dry it was arranged he should
follow Mr . Brown and the vote should be taken at
three o'clock.- DL. Harding spoke withouttotes,
and paid his epeeist respects to those border-State[
men, like Yeaman and Rollins, and Green Clay
Smith, who had changed fronts on the slavery
question. He managed to command somewhat of
the attention of the House, until he repeated the
threadbare argument a,gainst the desecration of the
constitutional rights of slavery. For this the House
has little taste. He was succeeded by Mr. Kalb.
&loch, who also read his speech in opposition to
the amendmeitt. The indifference of the House to
written harangues here culminated: It is hardly
possible to conceive of a less orderly body when
there is no special cause of disturbance.
Every member was doing what Seemed good
in his own eyes, and several times Mr.- Kalb
fleisch invoked the attention of the House, and
the gavel of the Speaker called the body to order.
On the conclusion of his remarks, Mr. Ashley, who
has borne himself throughout this protracted die.
cueslon with great courtesy and fairness, demanded
the previous question, on his motion to reconsider
the vote of last session. Mr. Stiles moved to lag
that on the table. It was the preliminary skirmish
of the great contest, and unusual quiet brooded
over the hall while the vote was taken. It was de.
aided in the negative, by ill to 57, one short of the
constitutional majority. Will that one be forth.
coming 1 was the eager thought or the matte.
rise. The friend's of the measure on 'the lime
looked serenely confident. Mr. Mallory raised
a point of order that the vote required
two-thirds of the House, but was priimptly
overruled by the Speaker. He then suggested 11.
day's delay, but was reminded by Mr. Ashley of the
universal understanding that the test was to be had
today. - The question of reconsidering the vote of
last session was then put by the Speaker, and the
ayes and noes called. The result was announced
112 to 57—a gain of one i on the previous vote. but
still not enough to make twothirds. The Teo-nage
ration-ewes, however, Made. The original question
was now before the House. "Shall the joint rose.
Innen pars 1" was announced as the issue in the
clear, ringing tones of the Speaker. -Again, amid
universal stillness, did the Clerk proceed with the
roll, which we published yesterday.
And there they will stand forever ! Side by side
with the signers of the Declaration of Independence,
those 1111111101 in the affirmative will be held in honor
through all coming time. History will record the n.
fact that when the opportunity was offered of extin
guishing the foul cause of our angry political con—
tentions and of this fearful artennnateral rebellion,
fifty.sis representatives of a free people declined to
avail themselves Of the Chance for immortality.
Posterity will remember it to the eternal honor of
those voting in the affirmative, that they made the
organic law of the nation accord with the sacred
claims of justice and with the fundamental mind
pies of our democratic theory.
When the mania of John Ganson was called, fol
lowed by a prompt aye, there was a slight burst of
andante, promptly repressed, however, by the
Speaker. That vote settled the question. It was
one subtracted from the previous, fifty-seven, and
left a clear majority. Others were added as the
roll-call"-proceeded. When It was finished, an
Speaker asked the Clerk "to call his name as a.
member of this House." He voted aye, and never
more proudly throughout his brilliant and success. -

sage of the joint resolution to amend the Constitu
tion of the United States the ayes ate 119, the noes
56. The constitutional majority of two-thirds hay.
ing voted in the affirmative, the joint resolution has
passed." _
There was a momentary lull, when, as by an ea,.
trio shook, the exultant shouts of the friends of free
dom rung through the Halt The scene beggars de
scription. It was the subllmest outbreak of popu
lar entbudasm we ever witnessed. Dien sprang to
their rest, throwing up their arms exultantly, and
crying out at the agt of their voices. Fair women •
*raved thedr handkerchiefs and joined in the lend
buzzes. The floor of the House resounded with the
clapping of hands, the stimping of feet, and the in
cessant shouting of velem. The galleries echoed
back with tenfold enthusiasm the overwhelming de
monstrations on the floor of the House. leen lugged
one another In an eestway of delight. They grappled
hands and shouted over this triumph of freedom. '
Bleny a bright eye gliStend, and many a heart was
tgo full for utterance over this memorable hour or
our national regeneration. When this tempest of
excitement, which lasted for several minutes, and
seemed to And no adequate outlet, had partially sub.
sided, emotion was made to adjourn, and the Oppe
siticn Melded on the ayes and noes. The me
