The LeSisIntMre.

Discussion on the bin to confer civil
rights on freedmen &C., was resumed In
the House yesterday morning.
Messrs. Gholson, Arnold, Steele, Mar
tin and some others participated in the
debate. In the evening on test vote,
the negro testimony part of the bill was
defeated by a majority of FIVE. As it
seems to be the deliberate judgment OF
the House of Representatives that ne
groes shall not be allowed to testify nor
sustain their cases by the evidence OF
those of their color, we of course ac-
auiesce in the decision.
We fear the results.of this kind oi
legislation will disappoint the country
We fear it will infict on a people who
have already suffered terribly from the
calamities Of war, continued military rule
that the FreedmeE's Bureau will be per
petuated, tribunals established by Fed
eraI officers, before whom the negro will
! not only testify, but be believed, and any
attempt to establish a labor system in
the country rendered impossible.
