This American Congress now sitting
at Washington is the grandest, highest
representation of the people of the Re
public. It is the law-making. body,
whose directions the Executive has only
to obey and discharge, and which the
Judiciary has only to expound and ex
plain. In it, in the present emergency,
and the perils which may come, is the
safety of the Republic. It is the rock
of national salvation. It has the. confi

nation will fall as it would if Lee
had annihilated the battalions that con
fronted him in defence of the Flag end

letter from Mr. Charles E. Faulkner,
who.haz 'knowledge of what he writes,
end arrriYr end it to those who are in in
decent haste toweloome the South back
into the councils of the nation :
"For some time past, attention has
been called tothe manifest bitterness,
,
expressed by the Chiv
alry towarda Union men residing in the
South. Open-handed opprsion, and
even cold-blooded .murder, form a part
-of-their wicked .policy in endeavoring
--to drive from-their midst all who do Mt
sympathize with them in their malic
ious feeliugs towards the-General Gov
ernment.
" These are - the men who, deaf to all
promptings of duty, and ignoring the I
obligatint bonds of good-citizenship ire-
posed upon theta by the la -, ,vs; of reCon- I
etrudion, are 'mooting for admission
into the halls of 'Congress, that they
may- have still more power to further I
their pernicious designs, men who have
fought in our armies through all the

But this is not the worst feature of
the case r Dissent from the opinion of
a public' officer is often much more corn
plinientary than - kgreeineati with his
opinions or support . of his policy. The
The quality of the accord deterndnes the
value of it.
Now what are the facts? just these:
We had seen
. no such lighting up of tche
faces of the Copperheads since the 'ru
mors of disaster to the Union armies
were current, as took
; place when the
news of this veto reached" the country.
It was generally-remarked by others.
I somenases, salutes were fired by
the Copperheads in honor of the veto.•
I There wds *reason for this, of course,'
a.reason not at , alicornidimentary to the
rejoicing party, and decidedly dama
ging to the President. Now, not one
in ten thousand of those who rejoiced
and fired salutes,. ever saw the bill to
enlarge the powers of the Freedmen's
Bureau. They knew nothing of its
leading features except as seen through
the inediinn of such commentators as
the lirprid, News, Age, and other un
scrupulous and treasonable sheets.
They rejoiced because they regarded
the veto as, an .evidence of Andrew
Johnson's sympathy with traitors and
the exploded institution of slavery.
They looked upon it as an evidence of
his disaffection with' the great Union.
party of the land, and with which we
still believe him to be in essential ac
cord. It has come to this, that.when
public servant leans, or is believed to
lean; tp the side of injustice and•. treas
on, the rebel Pressess north and south,
and the sympathizers with treason in,
every section, at once seize uplin the
occasion to claim that public Servant as
one of their own kind. Like a facetious
stumper w,e once heard of, they can de
tect a fellow partizan by the smell of
his breath.
Fro : much for that; and it would seem
to be enough - for one pair of , sh2ulders
to bear. But there are other unTavora- .
ble demonstrations tending to shake
the confidence of the loyal masses in the
President. The New York traitor
sheets,The World, The News, and the
Dag Booki , •begin- to laud to the
skies. correspondents of Copperhead
sheets, assuming to speak" by the card,'
affirm that Jefferson, Davis will never
be arraigned for treason, or if tried and
convicted, will bepardoned by Andrew
Johnson. This; to those who heard
Andrew Johnson say in
.the Senate of
the United States that he would try
such men for treason, and if convicted,
hang them, sounds very much like
falsehood. At all events we shall not
make haste to believ ; :enything so
; thoroughly implicating the President
with treason and its sympathizes.
Therefore we are not ready to declare
with some that the President has gone
over to the: rebels: ;Who ta Itin under
Voorhees,,Vallandighain, &Co. He is
entitled to his opinion arid - - bfi the exer 7
' ciSe of the veto power. That he erred,
dud most lamentably, in this case, we
do most certainly admit. For; t - he bill

WO thought to be less' expensive - In its
operation., 'Ms ,points,',are not all well
taken ; that for instance declaring the
unconstitutionality of -the bill. The
point that: the placed : too much
power in the hands of the Executive
insist .be regarded as well taken. ,But
as he declares the present 'Freedmen's
Bureau , Law good and sufficient, we
cannot wholly condemn hiS action. For
;one, we shall wait foi, 'further , develop
raquts before giving Andrew' Johnson
Over to the devil.
But we do no forget that the President
;but a feW days age, expressed_ a, great
concern lest there might be A. war of
races. Let him look well to it lest .by
lieming to lean to*ard injustice, he
,may force the, colored race to take by
,compulsion what is not granted to re
spectful prayer. For history points a
. nger of warning which even President.,
and - senates must heed, or suffer. Ma

And while we do not lay great stress
upon the veto of,the Freedmen's Bill,
and•by no means believe the President
the designing oppressor of the helpless
ex-slave, we cannot forbear mention
ing the fact that he offered to become .
the Moses of the colored race not very
long ago ;,and we, jn common with the
'loyal and hutuane everywhere,-are look

XXXIXth Congress---let Seas 1011.
Our summary commences on blonday,
19th inst.
In the Senate, the reading of the veto
message was the chief matter of inter
est: A proposition to•disband the. mil
itia of .the States lately in .rebellion
[now in rebellion, would be the truth]
was Introduced and debated briefly by
Senators Wilson and Saulsbury. The
latter holding that Congress could not
disband the militia of a State. Mr:
Wilson thought Congress had legalized
the disarinlng Of rebels and ruffians and
might do it again.
In the House a bill was introduced to
equalize bounties to soldiers of 1861- 7 3
and 4. Also a bill to repeal all laws .
ex
empting Government securities from
taxation. A series of resolutions declar
ing that the assent of two-thirds pf the
loyal states should be sufficient to
amend the Constitution, and that States
which had renounced their allegiance to
the Constitution could have no voice in
the matter, was also introduced.
series of -rosolutions _declaring that the•
rebellion had deprived.the rebel States
of-all civil government; that Congress
is bound to guarantee to such States
republican form of government; and
that the President is justified in main
taining military rule in all States lately
in open arms against the government,
was adopted. „ .
TUESDAY Feb. 20. The sessipn in
both Houses was exciting and impoi
tent. In the Senate Mr. Wade propos
ed an amendment'to the Constitution
making the President ineligible to :a
second term of office during life. He
explained that-thiawasno new propo
'sition, but one suggested by Washing-,
ton himself. He argued it ably and
forcibly, and cited the fact that every
President of note had recommended it.
Mr. Creswell, of Maryland, introdik
ed a bill to.prevent the kidnapping of
-children of African deseent,.with a pen
alty of $3,500 imposed.
Mr. Trumbull then called up the
Freedmen's Bill vetoed by the Presi
dent, and spoke at length upon the \ - f-
to message. At the
. conclusion of Us
speech a vote was taken• upon. the que.=
tion : "Shall the bill pass, the TriiSi
dent's objection notwithstanding?"
*lately - resulted in the defeat of the bill
by a vote of 30 to 18—not two-thirds.
In the House there was a *arm time
over the concurrent resolution reported
by Thaddeus Stevens from the Commit
tee on Reconstruction, in effect as fol
lows :
"That in order to closevzitation upon
a question which seems likely to dis
turb the action of the Government, as
well as to quiet the uncertainty which
is agitating the minds of the people of
the 11 States which - have been declared
in insurrection, no Senator or Repre
sentative shall bp admitted into' either
branch of Congress froni any of the
said States until Congress shallhave de
clared suchoStates entitled to such re
presentation."
Upon this he moved the previous
question' - This was followed by great
confusion, the Copperheads resorting to
dilatory motions to embarass the House
This continued from - 1 o'clock to 7,
when, by the blunder of a filibuster the
resolution was passed by a vote of 109
to 40. We cannot forbear mentioning
the fact that Raymond, of the N. •
Times, has finally gone into the snake
hole, bag and baggage.
WEDNESDAY, Feb. 21. In the Sen-
ate, Mr. Fessenden moved that the reg
ular order of business be postponed in
order to take. up the. House concurrent,
resolution printed above. This created
a lively debrete• as •to -what should be
I done with the resolution. During the
I debate Mr. Cowan, who disgraces Penn
sylvania-as its Senathr, took occasion to
exhibit the owl which inhabits his
I frontal region, and - protest against the
consideration of the resolution miing
to its very grave import. To the solem),
remarks .of. the "Pennsylvania Web
ster," - Mr. Fessenden, replied: as only
h can reply to pretension and humbug.-
This - had the effect to bring outtherbar..st
room proclivities of Mr. Cowan, which
proclivities create for him nionoploy
in the Senate. He said he did not
know why he should not he supposed
to know as much aboutthe - question as
Mr. Fessenden. The proper reply to
this would be that Mr. Cowan is not
supposed to know as. much about any
public question as Mr. Fessenden. The
difference is that which always exists
between„the genuine article and the
_
counterit.
The resolution was postponed until
Friday.. Mr. Buckalew then addressed
the Senate on the subject of general re
presentation in Congress. He favor an
amendment of the Constitution giving
to States of less than 1,000,000 popula
tion one Senator ; and so on giving a
Senator for each million population.—
He made a direct attack upon New
England as controlling the legislation
of the country. The speech was calm,
temperate, and able,' and constrains us
to regret - that so much ability should be
devoted to the Interests of an unprinci
pled party rather than to the good of
the republic.
, In the House a telegram was received
from the Ohio Legislature that the
Union members had passed a resolution
endorsing the Ohio delegation in their
Support of the Freedmen's Bill. The
loan bill was then.taken-4 and debat
ed until adjournment. Both Houses
adjourned until Friday.
