ALABAMA. —A bill was introduced in the Senate on Wednesday, to provide for the establishment of a provisional govern ment in Alabama, under the Constitution that was recently rejected. A Registry Law. A bill providing for tlie registration of voters throughout the State lias passed both branches of the Legislature and now become a law. The subjoined is a synop sis of its principal provisions : Section I—That the assessors shall make lists of voters annually, with their residence, whether housekeepers or boarders ; the occupation and name of employer, if woik jtio for another ; whether native citizens voting on age, naturalized, or having de clared intentions, expecting to vote upon full papers, to be procuied before elec tion. During the present year such lists to be made out sixty six days after the passage of the act ; qualification to be then inquir ed into before the Ist of September;— meeting for the rectification and placing additional names on the registry, to be held by the assesors during four days, if necessary, and teu days before the elec tion.

At the election no person to be allowed to vote whose name is not on the list. Where a person has been omitted he mav request a specinl meeting of the of ficers to decide on his case J and all such claims may be heard at the election house on the Saturday before the election. Section 4.—Voters may be challenged and put to proof, notwithstanding the fact that their names are not on the registry, and the matter be decided according to law. Naturalized voters must produce their certificates of naturalization, the elec tion officers to place the word "voted," with date and place of election.

Daring tho diescussion of his amend ment, proposing to strike the word white from the Constitution of Pennsylvania, John llickman said : I may possibly see the day that I may walk side by side with a colored woman. I have seen a great many colored women that I would rather walk with than a great many white men. I know a great many negroes who I think are better entitled to vote this moment than a great many white men who do vote, and have long exercised the franchise. Major A. C. Iteinoehl, the brilliant member from Manheim, strove to emulate Hickman. In a stilted and very silly speech which he made on the same ques tion he denounced the Democratic party for denying the right of suffrage to the ne gro while they conferred it on the white foreigner. He grossly insulted every adopted citizen when lie denounced them as "foreign paupers." He saiJ : If Democrats give the right of suffrage to foreign paupers to whom a spelling book is a sealed mystery, and who still smell of bilge water, and from whose gar ments the Celtic aroma or the Teutonic fragrance of the fatherland has not yet been removed by the pure air of freedom, why should not the coffee-colored descend ants of the first families of the South have a voice in reconstructing the States of their forefathers ? The grandfather of the little upstart who uses such language as that,we' are assured, is unable to speak the English language intelligibly, and his fathci prefers to con verge in Pennsylvania Dutch.

Jones, returned as Sen ator from the Eighth District, on the ground that he was elected by negro votes. The seat was awarded to his competitor, who was immediately sworn in. Arkansas Election.—Another Recon struction Act. The Rads, have everything their own way, in spite of Presidential vetoes, still' make sad progress in hampering the whites , of the South sufficiently strong to bring ' them into the Union as the inferiors of the blacks. Three limes already have they amended the original bill, in order to se cure this result, and now, finding them selves beaded off by the results of the elec tions of Alabama and Arkansas, they ac knowledge themselves completely stuck in the mud. Whether the native whites of the South are loyal or disloyal, they have shown '■ themselves more than a match for the Had-1 icals in political stategy, and certainly not j the men to be governed by a horde of un educated, degraded, semi barbarous ne-! groea. At first, the Radicals thought that: by disfranchisement, they had secured a large negro majority in the ten excluded j States, hence, to manifest a spirit of fair- : ness, they enacted to call a Convention i and adopt a constitution, and that a ma- , jority of registered voters should vote on the question. Under this rule, to the great delight of the negro worshippers, Alabama i called a Convention of darkies and theii white worshippers, and submitted what they were pleased to call a constitution, to the test of the ballot box ; when, to the horror of Stevens, Wade, Sumner, and i others of that ilk, there were not enough votes east to adopt the constitution and I | reconstruct a State clothed in the sable ba- I bilaments of negro supremacy. Stevens at | once, (probably induced to do so by hi- , | own wench) introduced a bill for the re | admission of Alabama, with her • resentatives ami negro constitution, votes ' or no votes, givjng as an excuse for such a ! course, that the election was held during a ! very wet seasoD, and that the negroes di to Congress. Put the more cautious saw at once that j such an act would be too bare-faced, so , thev taekod on their third amendment, providing that a majority of votes cu-H j i should decide the question —that is, if but three negroes should venture out in the rain to vote (negroes are not ducks, mark you) and two vote for and one against the constitution, if there are no more votes cast, this majority vote shall drag the South back to some place in the Union. This law was enacted in time to take t:f feet in the late Arkansas election, and Io ! horror of horrors, the people turn out and vote the Constitution down. So there can be no negro Senators from cither Alabama or Arkansas to vote in the High Court of Impeachment for the removal of President Johnson. We forgot to mention above that the liads gave one other excuse for the slim vote in Alabama, which was that the whites intimidated the blacks from voting This excuse is all moonshine.
