Gss- The New York Express, speaking Of
the important proceedings in the House of Rep
reseEtatives on Monday, and the passage Of
Mr.. Stevens bill, says:
A deplorable part Of the days record is the
absence Of Democrats from their seats in Con-
gress, and hence this miserable show Of only
forty-fve against Stevens wicked ca post .fdcto
bill, exemptiug from punishment those who
have been cruelty guilty of incarcerating white
men in the bastiles ofthe country. Personal
liberty bills, - in the States, was one Of the
great provoking causes Of the civil war. Now
we see Abolition members Of Congress not on
ly deprivng the white man of his personal
liberty bills, but of the means of furnishing
those who have kidnapped md incarcerated
him! Oh, shame shame

The President is understood to have replied to
their circumstances in much the same language
that he employed in his letter TO Mr.. Greeley.
Mr.. Wiley was anxious that the slaves in the
loyal States might be exempted, but Mr. Casey
Of Kentucky, sgif DO what is best, but
why should protection be extended 70 rebel
slave owners in Kentucky which is refused TO
loyal slave owners IN Tennessce2' Tho Presi-
dent finally remarked that he was an anti
slavery man, and considered slavery TO be the
rishtarm Of the rebellion, and that it must be
Topped off,
