The Constitutional Amendment De-
bate.

The debate on the const tutional
amendment has elected few good
speeches. and the consideration of the
subject has excited very little enthu-
siasm, not because the subject is not all
important, but because it Is old (the de-
bate on it was exhausted last winteI)
and there has been but faint eXpecta-
ton from the first that this second at
tempt would succeed. Mr. Ashley of
Ohio. who has managed it, deserves
great credit for his courage and dOgged
perseverance. The debate though it has
been dull, has had an excellent effect 1t
was worth all the expenditure OF time
TO get from the opposi ton two such
speeches as those which were delivered
by Yeaman of Kentucky and Odell Of
New York. Yeaman astonished his pro-
slavery colleagues, for he was elected as
an opposition member and stakeholder
and heretofore has shown no disposition
to 90 with the republicans. He took
bold ground in favor of the passage of
the Joint resolution and so did Mr.,
Odell. Schofeld, from the Erie district
Of Pennsylvania. made the ablest and
bitterest speech of the whole debate.
Perhaps ! should except Mr.. Ashley s
opening speech, which bore directly upon
the question before the House, Schofeld
occupied himself principally with ad-
ministering q Castigation to the Hon.
/ James Brooks of the New York Express
which he has for a long time deserved
New York city was fully roused in tht
persons Of its representatives by the
speech. Kasson Of Iowa also made 8
brilliant speech on Tuesday, and moi
only brilliant but it was powerful ar
gument. He is one Of the very few mer
in Congress who can make a speech
without notes, and suffer repeated in
terruptions without being disconnected
In short, he is a ready debater. Mr
Kasson is going to take very higl
position in Congress hereafter, If tn
people Of Iowa have the sense to retail
/ MIN in public life. Farnsworth of Chi
cago made most cutting reply to Fer
nando Wood just at the close of yester
day's debate. RI was hugely enjOye
hv the House and the galleries. Woo
read from some book to show that Afr
cans were a barbarous race, and CAV
the House a sup of horrors. Farnswort
G said that coming in little late, and nc
hearing where the horrible scene alLude
to was enacted. he supposed the homo
able gentleman was describing the nj
gro riots in New York of last summer
The blow was a terrible one, and Woo
,>--,.or 81 he il, was avi5o4itiy Stuune

GEN. BUTLERs OFFICIAL REPoRT.-Gen,
Butler states that the immediate cause
of the failure of the expedition was the
delay of three days on the part of the
fleet after Butler and his troops had ar
rived at the rendezvous off New Inlet.
and near Fort Fisher. When he arrived
there, there were less than 400 men In
Fort Fisher, and not 1000 men within
twenty miles. But he learned from the
prisoners captured on landing land
whose statements he seems to have re-
lied on to a great extent) that during
the delay rebel reinforcements had ar
rived from Richmond so as to oppose to
him'outside the fort a larger force than
his own. He says that no so strong
work has been taken by assault during
the war. Gen. Weitzel and his officers
agreed with Butler that it was not wise
to attempt an assault, and so he con.
cluded to withdraw, as he had no in
struction to besiege the place and no ia
cIlities for it either. 9
Gen. Grant in his Endorsement of But.
ler's report says it was never contem-
plated that Butler should accompa-
ny the expedition, Weitzel being spe-
cially named as commander. General
Grant thinks the delay in the moving of
the expedition can be charged to wait
ing for the gunpowder boat to be pre-
pared. Gen. Grant says Butler is in er-
ror in stating that the re-embarkation
of the troops was by his instructions,
as his instructions never contemplated
their withdrawal after the landing had
been effected Gen. Grant says In his
orders that the first object of the expe-
dition was to close the port of Whining
ton and if successful to capture the city
