On motion of Mr. SUMNER, the Sen ate took up the bill relative to tele graphic communication between the United States and foreign countries. Mr. Sumner said, since the bill bad been re ported in February last, a cable had been landed on our shore from France, and this rendered a modification of the bill necessary. He proposed an amendment to make the language of the bill applies blenot only to future but ealepog cable& Mr. THURMAN suggested a legal question had been broached. as to the right of a State to permit the landing of a cabin without permission of the general Government. He therefore moved to refer It to the Committee on Judiciary. Mr. SUMNER said the question refer red to by the Senator from Ohlo, that of States rights, was an old customer in the Senate, but the authority of the General Government ICI thin matter was ample in the constitutional direction to Con grdes to regulate commerce with foreign Mdions. Mr. CONKLIN wed the amendment wail retroactive by a provision 'making the bUI universal In lie character, and thereby thine new condition ware be posed in discriminately noon cables already authorized by Owigrems. Mr. SUMNER. said the provision had been made to protect special prlveleges guaranteed nuclei acta of Congress to certain cablee, and that the opinion of the Jridiciary Commlttephad been given that Conineea might, with prosperity, pan a code of restrictions which would be applicable generally to all cables between the United States and foreign countries. Mr. THETRMAbi, referring to a remark by Mr. Sumner, that his own remarks were for the purpose of reviving the theory of States tights, did not tits. demisted the limit which that Senator would impose on others. In considering legal questions in the Senate, that Nana tor Bombed to wee in his own auggeetions the apparition of States rights, which. apparently, always excited in his mind aomething of alarm. So earnestly had the Senator from Massachusetts been engaged in putting down eomw of the erroneous doctrines of States rights, that WS habit of mmd made it imposaable for him to believe that a State bad any rights et all. ' Upon any theory of the constitu tion States had some rights, and the speaker believed they could still be re. flirted to I. the Senate. He bad not denied the exercise of the National au charity ander the pending bill, but had simply asked it should receive the con. elderstion which it deserved. He insist ed upon hie constettalonal privilege te sty this much, with Out improper den of bis toottrei. The morning bop; having expired the Senate took up the bill to perfect the re construction of Georgia. Mr. SAULSBURY - delivered an argu ment to Illtudration of the inconsistency of Congressional legislation relative to unrecionstrucisd States, which he claimed was prompted from partisan motives, and is violatMn of the Constim lion. The lellowing additional bills were in trodueed during Mei:morning : Mr. RAMECEY Introduced a bill to abolish the franking privilege, and to provide postage stamps and stamped en. =s forthe payment of postage on ease and other public =1 matters to the Committee on Postoffices.

Mr. EDMUNDS asked why tho Senat tor from Indiana did not move to insert In the bill a clause directing the military commander In Georgia to declare the amendment adopted, without the form ality of s vote on the subject, Mr. MORTON asked why did not the Senator think of that when he voted to impownhe Fourteenth Amendment?

Mr. CARPENTER mild heagreed with Mr. Morton on the merits of the propos: ed amendment, and that all the mem ber. of the Judiciary Committee agreed in desiring the ratification of the M. teenth Amendment by Georgia. But the question remained, whether it was poli cy for the Senate to embody that enact ment In this hill.

Mr. CASSE.H.L'i maid that four years of government by the bayonent in the South bad demonstrated the futility of the reconstruction policy of Qmgress, and that violence and diaorder were its legitimate result.

THE WATER QUESTION A View of the staniect not Heretofore Discosord—socrestlonn W orthy of Con sideration. Z rrm Much has recently been said to our City Councils and through the preen, con.rnlng the pur- chase of property for the erection of new water works. Quite a number of altos have been suggested, and I incline to the opinion that the place rococo mended by the Water Committee, which weed Select Council. and Is now under consideration In the Common branch, appears to have more advantages than others named. Still, there are some people who have failed to be convinced that there Is really a necessity for new , WILLS.' works at that or any other point at this time, but believe that our present worka, by the expenditure of a oompara ttvely small sum of money, - tuay be made to answer abundantly all purposes for years to COMO! The Water Committee, sod come other gentlemen In Councils, apparently have -mew water wore• on the brain. The fact that there la now In eslatei3oe an •expenalve Institution of that character which might require some attention Is almost entirely ignored. To be sore, there have been complaints made con cerning the quantity and quality of the water; but when investigated by a Special fkimmlttee of Councils last Sqrnmer the fault was found to be an laufficient supply In the bash= and their filthy concltlon; (they had not been cleaned for about a year, and were not half full of water.) jay Onnwdlion moiled the facts and ren=inended an ordinance providing for keeping the basins In better order. out the rep lit was referred to the Water Committee, and thatwan the end of It. Now I aut. mit, would larger water works, In the' condition described, have remedied this matter ? So fern. 'apply I. conoerned,ittere are some peopid who assert that If the prtw. ent reservoini are kept well filled with water tare *lll be uo &mucky of that article anywhere In the consolidated city. If there is not enough motive power for the purpose, why not procure another en gine or two: it can be done at decidedly Ina wet than the purchase of the pro. posed site will eventually amount to, for that Involves the expenditure of three or four million, of dollars. The present position is certainly ■ufliciently elevated. A responsible member of Councils, In presenting a petition for en exteneton of water facilities in the country districts, .snarled that the presume of the water was almost sufficient to burst the pipes; and surely such force would be enough to supply the entire city if the requisite quantity of water was kept In the basins. As to the quality ot the water, going up the Allegheny river a few miles can not vosaibly much better It, for there is nil floating on the Luta°e all the way to Oil City. Besides, there has been no complaint on that score, while other matters were In proper condition. These statement. are respectfully slab- mitted to the consideration of Councli. mess, and others interested. F.

It has been only within the lan year or two that any progress has been made toward Its de velopment, but recently men of capital and energy have turned their attention to the locality and find that It offers so- parlor inducements to oil borers."
