which would have abstracted nine million
five hundred thousand dollars from the Sink

pose of building railroads and extendiog lines
already built, is very generally sustained by
the press of both political parties, and by the
people of the State, judging by the voice of
the press
_which, as a general rule, reflects
their sentiments. It is held by eminent
lawyers and by intelligent unprofessional
gentlemen to be one of the best and sound
est veto messages over sent to the Legisla
ture of this State. The constitutional views
of the Governor are too plainly (torrent to be
disputed by any one pretending to intelli

danger of adopting for the • State a policy
such as the vetoed bill would have inaug
urated, will meet with the almost unanimous
concurrence of the people.

elected over the present incumbent Marshall

the House by thirteen. The Republican
vote was 2,173 less than last year, and the
Democratic veto .952 lees. The negroes did
not vote.. In 1869 Jewell's majority over
English was 411.

which passed the .House• recently trans
fers the bounty and hospital work of the

in the Interior, Department:. All the funds
now remainl ni in. the Treasury to the credit
of Freedmen's Bureau, and all property
entrusted to the Commissioner for its bene
fit, are also transferred to the Bureau of Ed

buildings constructed or repaired by the
Freedmen's Bureau, and now held by the
municipal or State authorities, societies, or
trustees for educational purposes, or funds
arising from their -rental or sale, shall _be
forever applied to and used for such purpose;
and said bodies and institutions must report
yearly to the Bureau of Education, Gee.
Howard ie allowed three months to fulfill
his legal obligations and contracts, and settle
his accounts at the Treasury. A correspon
dent of the Tribune relates, not long since a
captain in the army, connected with the
Bureau in Texas, wrote that such was the
popular prejudice against black education in
Texas, the school houses were burnt down
nearly as fast as they were erected ; he ev
idently doubted if it were best to build school
houses to make bonfire's of; but he, now
writes that, since the last cotton picking; a
change has come over Texas; that the plant
ers are beginning to value schools, for the
better classes of negro women who follow
them, and that schools will be welcomed,
even in Texas, when they improve the otal
ity of labor.
The great work of education in the South,
thus organised and instituted since the war
closed, will mai:Cyan even nobler record in
history for the Freedmen's Bureau than the
beneficent mission of humanity which it per
formed during the struggle. It goes out of
existence now, leaving a monument of re-
Itembered accomplishments that will endure
long after its enemies and traducers have
been utterly forgotten.
ma. According to a Washington dispatch,
Governor Seiner, of Tennessee, appeared be
fore the Reconstruction OoMmittee on Sat.
urday morning last, and was examined at
length regarding the condition of affairs in
-Tennessee. He said-that_both politicaLpar--
ties were to blame for the troubles existing
throughout the State; that where the rebel
element was in the ascendency, the loyal
men were hunted down and constantly tun
lasted, arid that_in_lo_mtlities_where_tbe-Union—
ism were strongest, the rebels were maltreat—
ed i■ the same manner. The Governor re
sonated the facts which led him io send his
message to the Legislature regarding mob
violence, and 844 chat the failure on the
part of that body to invest him with the au
thorit _to _a ..oint_to_ofFice and pu L .sees dia.
turbances had undoubtedly resulted in an
increase in the disorders. He justified his
course in calling upon the President for
troop, and said unless the military arm was
felt throughout the State, there would be no
abatement in the outrages daily perpetrated.
ma.. The reunion of the Society of the
Army of the Potomac took place in Philadel-
phia on" Saturday, the fifth anniversary of
the surrender of Lee and his army at Ap•
pomattox. At the gathering on Saturday
morning General J. 11, Martindale, of the
Sixth Corps, delivered an oration, and a poem
by Mr. George H. Boker was read. In the
evening the grand-banquet took place. The
President and Generals Sherman, Sheridan,
'Meade, Heintzletnau, Banks, Belknap, Burn•
side and many other distinguished officers
were present. General Meade was elected
President of the Society for the present
year.
108*A corresponde'nt of The Boston Com
monwealth states that the chair now occupied
by Senator Revels is not the actual piece of
furniture once used by Jefferson Davis. In
April, 1861, when the Sixth Massachusetts
—that bad been attacked in Baltimore just
previously—was guarding the Capitol, some
of the soldiers ascertained by enquiry, which
chair had been occupied by the rebel chief,
and broke it to pieces. Perhaps the thought
that the precious relic was thus saved from
the °outwit:mai:lg touch of the oolored Sen •
ator may reconcile the friends of Mr. Davis
to the eiroumstanoee of its destruction.
UNIFORM DAY OF ELEOTION.-It is pro
posed to fix a uniform time for the election
of Representatives throughout the United
States. The bill fixes the first Tuesday af.
ter the first Monday of November for such
election. It is to take effect in 1871 Mr.
Dawes ; of Massachusetts, is the author of is.
The design is to prevent the frauds arising
from voting by persons who migrate to the
great cities, and from State to State for thit
purpose. It is an easy matter to temporarily
colonize those who, having nothing, care not
where they live, and are ever ready to move
on a small inducement. Those politicians
who have the least integrity do the most of
this kind of business, and when elections are
held in some States in October and in others
in November it is not difficult to obtain the
balance of power by a temporary transfer
from this class of persona.

Douglass was read at a meeting held in Ro

the ratification of the Fifteenth Amendment :
ROCHESTER, April 5, 1870
Messrs. Bruce and Babcock :
Gentlemen-1 sincerely regret that an ap
pointment of long standing ; and one which I .
cannot now recall, will make it out of my I
power to be present at the City Hall on
Thursday I feel it a positive deprivation
not to be able to join in the home demonstra
tions of joy and
,gratitude. The revolution
wrought in our condition by the Fifteenth
Amendment of the Constitution' of the Uni
ted States is almost startling, even to we.—
I view it with something like amazement.
It is truly vast and wonderful, and when we
think through what labors, tears, treasures
and precious blood it has come, we may well
contemplate it with a solemn joy.• Hence
forth we live in a new world, breathe a new
alcuasphere r have a new earth beneath and a
new sky above us, Our new condition
brings with it that which should make us
thoughtful as well as joyful. It sweeps the
future of our ancient shortcomings, and
flings us as a race upon our own responsibil
ity. Equal before the Lord, equal at the
ballot-box and in the jury box, the glory or
shame of our future condition is to fall upon
ourselves. Until now we have bad no glory
in our future—only one dark, monotonous
chaos—to which we looked with sad and
sullen sense of wrong. To-day we survey a
future radiant—with light and hope. We
were always men—now we are citizens and
men among men. We admit the responsi
bility of our new relation, but do not shrink
from it. We start io the race of civilization
with many hindrances attaching to us from
our past condition, but we shall be sure to
shake off these hindrances in the sad race,
and sweep onward in the pathway of improve
ment, in a canner which' will be as gratify
ing to our friends as grievous to our ene
mies. -
Gentlemen, accept•my best wishes for the
success of your celebration, and believe me
very truly yours.

day night, the Ist inst., Vice President
Colfax said that ••this was the anniversary
of his convection with the temperance cause.
Twenty-five years ago, when he was just
reaching manhood, he assisted ie the forma.
tion and iostallatiun of the officera of a divi
sion of Sous of Temperance in the town
where he then and now resides in Indiana.
He was•piond to say that he.had from that
day to thia kept his pledge. He had found
it during the twenty five years to be a safe
guard and talisman, and when the time came
to him to be gathered to his fathers, lie
could say that he had never in the days of
his manhood tasted, touched or handled the
intoxicating beverage.'
