REvERDY JOHNSON on SLAvERY.-The following
is part of recent speech delivered in the United
States Senate by Hon. Reverdy johnson, of
Maryland
1t might be admitted, he thought that in the
eye of the Constitution slaves are property in
those States where they are so held but they
are persons also Representation in Congress is
based on the fact that they are persons Though
slaves, they are men. They owe allegiance by
birth, and though the Supreme Court has deci-
ded that under the clause defining the jursdic-
ton of that Court they are not citizens in rcla-
ton to other clauses of the Constitution it NAV
be far different. They have the protection of the
| Government to certain extent at least and WHY
should they not contribute to its defense As
property, they may be taken for the public use
on compensation to their owners being made.
As to the compensation, some complaints had
been made, and justly, perhaps, as the Senator
thought, in regard to the manner the law had
been executed by some Government agents This,
however, should not induce the Senator to lift
his voice in the Senate or his out of it to
weaken or embarrass the Government in its eff
forts to suppress the rebellion. When the au-
thorty of the Government is restored to its full
extent, then inquiry might and would be made
into all such matters. As to the slave himself
compensation Invested the owner of all his rights
and ipso fdcto emancipated him. 1t would be
disgracefui after the employment of colored men
to defend its existence, that this Government
should permit them to return to slavery. He
thanked God they never could be re-cnslaved.
1t gave him pleasure to remember that when he
formerly had the honor of occupying seat on
this floor in ls47, he declared, in a debate upon
the subject of slavery, that it was wrong as a
system, morally and politically, and especially
economically. Slavery was indefensible The
people Of this country were rapidly becoming
wiser on this subject

PYRAMID LAKE.-The Virginia City Bulletin 0

PYRAMID LAKE.-The Virginia City Bulletin of
10Th January, says:
I'VE learn the following particulars concern
ing Pyramid Lake and vicinity, from Grove
Adams who has just returned from a trip there.
Mr. Adams informs us that there is plenty of
feed for stock for miles around. The Indians
who are very numerous in the vicinity of the
lake, have cut large quantity of hay for their
winter use. The party that went with Mr..
Adams took the first wagon to the lake that was
ever seen there. The Indians are very friendly,
and their chief Winnemucca was very sociable.
The water in the lake is too salt to drink, and
the Indians appear to have superstitous dread
of it-they will never venture to go ont on its
waters. They great hands at fishing, but
they always fish from the shore. They have a
curious legend concerning the three singular
pyramids that rear their cone-shaped peaks out
of the lake to an attitude of upward of 500 feet.
This beautiful though singular lake is as large
or larger than Lake Tahoe, and swarms with
fish, while the country around is alive with
game. The Indians appear fat and contented.
In the valleys below the lake, along the course
of the Truckee, there are great many horses
and cattle many of them doubtless estray. Our
informant states that the country around the
lake for many miles is well adapted for settle
ment, but at present none but Indians live
there.

A MILITARY REPUBLIc.-By the census of 1860,
there were 27,o0O,0oo of white people in the
United States. Of these 10000, 600 belong to
the loyal States, one half of whom or 10, 900 900
males. OF those males "a per cent be-
tween the ages of 20 and 45, making 3,4o0 900
of an arms-bearing population These loyal
States have sent $50. 900 men to the field, or
slightly over to q of all between the ages of
30 and As and we have enough left to whip out
the rebellion and carry forward the great inter
ests of the country as if no war was on hand.
1t was not thought possible that Republic could
be a military nation; but the fact as now demon
strated, is not the most encouraging to foreign
nations.

MALERoY, Secretary of the rebel Navy De-
partment, has made his report. He does not feel
very comfortable over the seizure of the Con-
federate rams by England and France. We make
the following extract from the report:
In accordance with the order of the Presi-
dent, early in the present year, | dispatched
several agents to England and France, with or
ders to contract for eight ron-clad vessels suit
able for ocean service and calculated to resist
the ordinary armament of the wooden vessels OF
the enemy. These ships were to be provided
with rams, and designed. expressly to break the
blockade of such of the ports were not block
AIDED by the iron-clad Monitors of the enemy.
Five Of these vessels were contracted for in En-
gland, and three in France Due precautions
were taken against contravening the laws of En-
gland in the construction and equipment of these
vessels. Three have been completed but owing
to the pnfrendiy construction of her neutrality
laws, the Government of England stationed sew
eral war vessels at the mouth of the Mersey and
prevented their departure from England. Sub
sequenty they were seized by the British Gov
ernment Another and larger vessel has since
been completed, but it is doubtful if she will be
allowed to leave the shores of England, although
dt is believed the precautions taken sufficient
to exempt her from the fate of her consorts.
The vessels constructed in France have been
subjected to so many official visitations that |
have forwarded instructions to cease opera ons
upon them until the result of negotiations now
pending shall permit agent to resume work
upon them. In this connection it is proper for
me to state that the great revulson in popular
sentiment, both in England and France toward
the Confederate Government, has rendered our
effofts to obtain supplies from those countries
almost abortive. In view of all possible con-
tingencies, have instructed the agents of this
department to wait more favorable opportunity
for carrying out the instructions previously for
~arded"
