1 And again: *
“Ho held that slavery was not, per n, an
evil, neither socially, politically or morally.
He thought that few white people would een
desoend to walk the streets with sable neigh
bor*. The negro raoe Is a race of different
capacities and different wants from the white,
' and the soonor the: American people recognise
that ftet, the better it will be for all concern
ed. The negro raoe shows Itself inoapable of
keeping up Its own existence. The slate
negroes prove that they are happier than free
negroes, from the foot that they multiply In
numbers, Ao."
' Upon all thill would like to ask Hr. Kaine
a few civil questions s
Ist. Whether he knows of any oorrnption
la the General Government quite equal to that
disclosed at Harrisburg last winter, before the
committee, of whleh he was a member, air
though he was willing to take Dr. Panooait's
oertihoate for J. Edgar Thompson’s testi
mony, and why, instead of hunting up ob
jections to the effeotive conduct. of the war,
and showing utter indlffarence in regard eith
er to the repeal of the Tonnage Tax bill, or
tite punishment of the parties concerned in
it, he does not himself "rise up in his might"
and attend to matters at home, whleh he
ought to understand, and whibh fall properly
within his provinoe as a Legislator t
2d. Whether he .did not thereafter deprive
Pennsylvania of the honor of olalming as
a oitisen, even before the eleoUen of 1860, hr
ease we should violate the rfyfo South,
and bring on a war—as we ihust inevitably
do, by electing Abraham Linebln to the Pre
sidency ?
Si. W bother he is of the opinion that either
he or Any other Democrat of his way of think
ing in this latitude, can make as goodaspeeeh
as that of Fred. Douglass, lately reported In

OUR SPECIAL DISPATCHES.
Bpecl*l DLrp*tch[to th* Pittsburgh Gaxctta.
Washxxotox, Feb. 17,1863,
LOUZSLUU XXHBS&fI ADXITTBD.
As foreshadowed In these dispatches last
night, though contrary to allprevloui indica
tions and to general expectation, the New
Orleans applicants for seats in the House were
to-day admitted. Flanders is absent In New
Hampshire stumping for the republican can
didates* Hahn, however, was present and
was sworn in before a vote was taken. He
made a speeoh in behalf of his own and Flan
der’s claim, which greatly benefttted his
oause, and stamped him as a rising man in
the House. On being sworn in he was warm
ly congratulated by the members, as the first
representative from the ootton States legally
nleoted and admitted sinee the rebellion.
Little or no doubt is entertained that both he
and Flanders may be relied on as sterling
Union men and supporters of the Administra
tion in all vital measures.
COSQUXWipXAL.
There is a general rqjoloing over the unan
imous passage of the Oonsoription bill in the
Senate last night. The Democrats yore ex
pected to oppose it bitterly, but they did not
suppose it would be put on Its passage, and
so went off about 10 or 11 o'clock at night to
a party at Count Meroier's. The loyal Bor
der Statesmen, however, with the Kepubll
.cans, made np a majority, and put the bill
through by a unanimous vote at midnight.
It exempts ne body on aeoount of an offieial
position, exoept the President, Cabinet
-officers, members of the Judioiary and Gov
ernors. An attempt to eiempt olergymen
was voted down by a large majority. So,
also, was an attempt to exempt Congressmen
and members of the Slate Legislature. It
oontains, howevor, a provision for paying the
Government a sum of money where the con
script cannot go, with whioh, as a bounty,
the Government will procure a substitute.
Exemptions are nearly all in behalf of the
poor, and persons having poor, dependent
families to charge. It is expeoted that those
features will render it remarkably popular.
It Is understood that the Home Military
Committee will probably report it back with
out amendment, and put it through under
the previous question.
The House acted this evening on the Sen
ate's amendments to the Finance bilL They
agreed to the Senate amendment, that the in
terest on the interest bearing notes shonld be
paid in legaltenders, and non-oorrent in tho
following: First, A provision making the
interest bearing notes also a legal tender.
Second, Tho Senate's amendment catting down
the amount of legal tenders from two hnndred
to fifty millions. Third, The Senate's amend
ments to the House bank taxation section,
with the graduated scale clause. The whole
matter will now go to the Committee of Con
ference, when the Senate is likely to carry tho
moat of its points. If Mr. Chase urges them
on the Administration, it will bo sure to do
so. Gold speculators are professing that mean
while gold will go. up again.
The Hooee-expocted to take up Mr. Sher
man’s tank bill to-morrow, where its friends
olalm it will go through with little or no op
position on the Republican side.
Mr. Grimes' Senate bill was passed by the
Senate to-day. It authorises the President
in all civil and foreign wars to issue letters
of marque and reprisal, and to establish snob
rules and regulations for the government and
control thereof as ho may deem expedient.
Mr. Grimes, besides urging the bill on other
grounds, said he wished to give the adminis
tration all the means and appllqpoes for all
contingencies and then hold the President and
Cabinet strictly responsible for their use and
demand of their success.
Mr. Collamer and MoDougall supported the
measure in »j>eeohe*.
Mr. Sumner, Dixon, and Garret Davis op
posed It. It was carried by fire to one.
The Committee on the Cenduot of the War
will probably recommend not to print their
report about Franklin's interference with
Burnside's plan at Fredericksburg, and sub
sequently, for the sake of the good of the
servioe.
