THE Memorial Diplomatique, in the
subjoined paragraph, acquaints its con
temporares with the method adopted
by so4ereigns Of Europe when CORES
pondlne with each other: Win the
exception Of sovereigns who may be
closely related, monarchs correspond
by letters, in which only the conclusion,
or rather the courtoisie, is written with
their own hand. The courtoisie is the
complement at the foot of letters, and
which, when the letter is addressed to
an emperor or king, is always in these
terms: I" | am, my brother and cousin,
the good brother and cousin of your
majesty" Reciprocity is the rule fol-
lowing in this respect; but in certain
cases, and above all, when the letter is
countersigDed by the minister Of foreign
affairs, the signature only is in the hand
of the sovereign, and the body Of the
letter is written by the under secretar-
les in the cabinet of the minister"

IN THE ! FNNEJ.

The Republican, snarting under the indfgna
ton it has aroused against it in this District by
the course OF remark it has seen proper TO take
III regard TO the white women of this COM
munity,-or the very large proportion who do
their own marketing,-loses temper, and vents
itself in aspawn of low explosives that suggests
that its distinguished lady contributor OF
" Dutch'' and ssIrish" antipathles has assumed
its editorial pen. We cannot follow the Repub-
Eican into the kennel
John Randolph, in his ire against New En-.
gland and New England wooden manufactures,
any time to kick sheep. The editor of the
Republican,, in his spleen against the street rail-
way company and the white market going
women, would undoubtedly walk the same
distance to kick market basket!
When the New York Tribune declares that
the outrages upon the colored people of that
city by the managers of the scity railroads
OF New York (not one company, but generally
are SO common as to demand the immediate
attention of the State Legislature; and when
the Philadelphia papers state that the colorei
man is forced, on all the lines In that city, to
ride outside the car, and in all wea:iiers, il
would be waste of words to reply to the Repu6-
lican's remarkable assertion that such cases are
Exceptional" there.
The Republican falls back, however, upon
Bostop,-the "hub." Other cities may 5a little
less than angodly, but they do the eorrec!
thing in Boston!
We sincerely trust that in ons at least of the
northern cities the colorsd man is treated as
well as here; and not as harshly as he is In
Philadelphia and New York.

TUESDAY, February %. tees-
SKNATE-Mr. Fessenden, from the commit.
tee OF conference on the disagreefng votes OF
the two Houses on amendments to the Internal
revenue bill, made report. He statsd the
taxes as agreed upon for domestic spirits dis
titled or removed on sale on and after the pas
sage Of the act as follows:-Sixty cents per
gallon, first proof, MP to the 1st of july next;
s. cents after the LIST uly and until the ist jan
stated that the House had agreed Thus 10 strike
out the tax on domestic liquors on hand, but
had retained the duty on imported Jig ors In
hand, making them as follows Forty cents
additional per gallon, first. proof, on spirits
imported from foreign countries previous TO
the Let July next; IS cents on that imported
after LIST July till the LIST January next and 90
cents On that imported after the 1st of January
next. g.
Mr. r. said that the bill was thus substan.
tally in the form in which it passed the Sem
ate. the advance in the rates being only now
instead Of 10 cents per gallon.
The report of the committee was concurred
in by the Senate.
Mr.. Wilson called up the joint resolution
eGualiziDg the pay of soldiers OF the U. s. army.
The bill was postponed.
On motion OF Mr.. Summer, the Senate went
into executive session.
HoUsR-The House resumed the considera-
ticn Of the bill TO establish Bureau for Freed
mans Affairs.
Mr. Kelley, of Pennsylvania, advocated the.
passage of the bill, as due to meet the wants Of
the many freedmen who had been eInancipated
by the war. Had the wise counsels Of our
fathers been followed, slavery would long
since have been abolished everywhere.
message was received from the Senate,
informing the House that the Senate had con-
CURED in the report of the Committee Of Con-
ference on the Whiskey Bill.
The report was read.
Mr.. Ste vens explained the report.
Mr..W ashburne OF Illineis, who had dissent
ed 10 the report, gave his reasons heretofore.
He would not willingly surrender his conyic-
tons that spirits on land ought to bs taxed.
We wanted the report recommitted to anoihsr
committee, to so modify the bill rs to bring q
proper amount of money into the treasury.
Mr.. Fernando Wood was in favor OF taxing
liquors on hand in accordance with his ,origi-
nal amendment, but he had to yield to the ma
jority of the committee, having no discretion,
as it was decided the clause taxing whiskey on
hand was not a question in controversy, the
the two HOUSES having stricken il out
