SENATOR WILSON, Ne make the follow
ing extract from speech delivered by Sena
tor Wilson, at Ionkers, New York, on Mon
day:
The President said to me the other day
that he had never made any discrimination
between those who favor negro suffrage or
what is known as his policy. That lie did
not intend TO do it, aud he did not permit il
to be done. The resident further said that
he was in favor Of the fullest and freest dis
cussion Of all these matters, and he was con
fident that such discussions would bring Out
the truth that the whole power was ia the
hands OF the Government, and that nothing
was finally settled 10y his action, and that II
| ANYTHING was wrong We would correct II. !
| tell these gentlemen Tonight who are looking
| to a controversy on the subject, tell them
| there will be, in the Congress CT the United
| States, bold, free and manly discussion OF
| all these questions, and that there will be no
controversy between the Executive and Con-
gress on this subject. | tell them that we, the
| Republicans of the United tates, with our
! forty votes to ten in the Senate, and with CAR
| one hundred majority in the House OF Repre-
| sentatives, and with our President and our
abinet, that We, who have carried the coun-
try by wise legislation, by passionate, We
| hement and earnest support of the country
in war, have ability enough left to settle all
the questions that may arise. ! have IN
doubling faith that these questions will be
settled, and so settled, at any rate, as to Sc.
cure the liberties Of ell the people OF the
United States, without regard TO color.
The speaker closed by exhOrting his fellow
Republicans to show their Southern brethren
that the Republican party would be magnani-
nous. pe did not think ndrew Johnson
pardoned too many. He himself would have
pardoncd all but few leaders, whom he
wonld have tried and punished. he would
not say BY death, however. He wanted
nothing that belonged TO the rebels, all he
wanted was security for the future. g
wanted liberty, justice and humanity toward
ali classes Civil rights secured to the lreed-
men would give peace aud repose to our
whole country AMI 10 all classes Of our PEG
pie.

A DIABOLICAL ACT.-Lasl Saturday al
ternoon this community was shocked By the
intelligence that rape had beon committed
by negro man, employed at the camp of
the Sixth United States Cavalry, near this
city, upon little girl about eleven years
old, Of Mr.. Theodore Lowe, residing in
North Market street. The facts connected
with the bruta' affair, as furnished by Cap
tain Nail, Provost Marshal, are as follows ::
1t appears the little girl, accompanied by her
brother, went on. on the commons to hunt
for dog that had strayed off. After looking
for some time for the dog, they came in con-
tact with the negro in question, aud inquired
of him whether he had seen anything OF
stray dog. Th1 negro replied that he had
seen boy with the dog they were looking
for, and pointing in the direction where he
saw the dog, he told them they could get ii
By going after the boy who had it. Upon
this representation the girls brother started
in pursuit Of tie dog, leaving his sister with
the negro man. He had not departed very
long, however, before the negro laid hold OF
the girl and compelled her to accompany him
to stone quarry in the lot of Mrs. Bantz.-
The child screamed and made all the e.
sistance she could; she bit and scratched,
but to no purpose. He intimidated her

switch until he reached the quarry, where
he stripped her and violated her person.
After the consummation Of the diabolical
act, he released the girl, who immediately
went home and informed her father. Search
was at once made for the william, but with
out avail. Early on Sunday morning, Mr..
Lowe, father of the outraged girl, went out
to camp to look for the negro, taking his
daughter and her brother with him. They
were not in camp long before the girl espied
the demon who had so ruthlesSly injured
her. Her brother also recognized him. As
soon as the negro saw his victim, he shrunS
from her presence and sought hiding place
under bed in one of the tents. He was
Immediately arrested and brought to town
for hearing, which took place before Cap.
tain Nail, who turned him over to the civil
authorities, which resulted in his being COM
mitted to Jail to await the action OF the grand
Jury. The crime of which he has been pro-
ven to be guilty by the testimony of he girl
and her brother, and strong circumstantlal
evidence, is punishable with death, and we
trust the full penalty OF the law will be ri
gidly enforced. Fred. Examiner.

LIABILITY OF CONFEDERATE Agents FOR
PRIVATE PROPERTY IMPREssED.-An impor-
tapt case was tried before the United States
District Court at Memphis, Tenn, last week.
1t was that vi Park against Hamilton, aEd
its history was as follows: In the year 1867,
while the Rebel forces still held possession of
Memphis, the defendant, Thomas A. Hamil-
ton, was appointed by the Rebel Government
an agent to seize certain sugars and cotton,
the property Of merchants whom 1t Was be-
lieved we're purchasing and holding such
commodities upon speculation, in view OF
the probable surrender of Memphis to the
Federal forces, and against the laws OF the
Rebel Congress, and the declared policy OF
that Government, whose officers were in
structed to prevent the undue accumulation
of articles of prime commercial value at
points as seriously threatened as Memphis
then was. IN obedience to instructions then
given him, Hamilton seized number Of
hopsheads of sugar, the property OF Or. A.
| Park-yalued al S75, 000-and turned II
over to the Rebel Receiver or Quartermas-
Tar or with other sugars at that time seized,
sent il South by railroad. No vouchers were
given, but a memorandum was made a. the
time of the value and number o! barrels and
hogsheads, and in some caseS, We believe,
copies of such were furnished the owners
DR.. Park now brings suit against Mr.. Hami!-
ton to recover the value Of the property so
seized.
On the 18th ultirno the jury came into
Court and announced that they were unable
TO agree upon verdict, and the case goes
over to the next term of the Court.

MARRIAGE N HIGH LIFE-THe Nan 10

MARRIAGE IL HIGH LIFETIME Nan tohO
Olcns HudderSfeld. The English papers
state that Lady Gwendoline II. Maur, the
young and lovely daughter OF the Duke of
Somerset, has Just been married to Sir j..
Romsden, the young Yorkshire Baronet, who
owns the land on which every house in Hud-
dersheld is built, save one. Sir John has
offered fabulous sums for the property, but
in vain. The land belongs to an old Quaker,
and on Sir John offering to purchase it from
him he replied " When strangers ask thee
To whom the town OF Huddersfeid belongs,
thou caust say it belong to thee and me-
The Baronet offered TO give the owner as
many sovereigns for the land as would cover
the property, when the Quaker inquired,
"Wilt thou place them edgwise p 1t is
perhaps needless for US to state that the
Baronet declined placing them edgwise, and
the ownership OF the town of Huddersheld
is therefore still divided between Sir John
Romsden and the Quaker. We may state
that Lady Gwendoline, Sir Johns bride, is
the daughter Of the beautiful Duchess Of
Somerset, who, under another but not less
attractive name, was queen of beauty at the
Eglington tournament. Prince Napoleon,
who was then harmless adventurer, greatly
admired her appearance. Fortune since that
time has dealt tenderly with both of them :;
but perhaps, Oh the whole, the Duchess is
more to be envied than the Emperor.
