The great event Of the day has been the passage 10
the House OF the bill negro suffrage the
District Of Coumbis. Thad Stevens has again brought
his republican associates to his feet and in spite Of their
professions has made them do his bidding. With all
the opposition to unrestricted negro suffrage by the
publcans in caucus Stevens has managed to@whcel
them into line and carry his point He knew the men
that he had TO deal WITH and has directed his nova
mens that nearly all wheeled into line and sustained
I his scheme. His threat in the caucus that no
would vote with the democrats aud defeat ia
decision proves TO have been idle Boosting
He had made his estimate OF the material In the
House and counted with certainty ON the result
during the debate number OF republicans have directly
opposed unqualified suffrage, but nearly all OF them
voted with Stevens for II to-day under threats Of that
master of ceremonies toread them out OF the party.
The combinations and the manner in which the direct
test forced upon the House very curious in
teresting Tho fret vote the motion Of 4ir Oar
ling, of New York 10 postpone further consideration
until April This motion the democratic members n
tended TO vote for but they accidentally ascoaned that
some Of the republicans desired to postpone direct vote
until that time for the purpose OF not affecting the New
Hampshire and Connecticut elections which take place
prior TO that date. They wished TO avoid the issue
at those elections, fearing It's effect might de
feat them in those States Az soon the
democratic members became co.nzaut OF these
to meet the issue at and rot to shir any longer
They therefore voted against posponemeut, while
Stevens and all his associates who in favor o: the
Simon Pure ard unadrlieraed negro suffrage voted with
them and defeated the posponemonL stevens and the
extreme men OF the House cared nothing for The effect
politically, but being honestly favor Of the doctrine
reoiced at this opportunity fairly chuckod bis
success.
The question of postpcnement having been defeated,
the House brought TO dIrec. vote recomloitng
the b with Instructions to modify II by inserting ar
educational restriction. Tie republicans who have
claimed be conservatives and protested their opposi
ton 10 unrestricted negro outrage, rushed the
democratic side, begging the latter TO with them
against The extreme men. But tho democratic members
thus appealed TO replied "we opposed to negro
outrage any form, and shalt vote according to
convictions" regardless how any Of opponents
voted. They would certainly have objections TO a
suncent nuiaber OF republicans 70 vote with them
motion TO defeat H. IL the radicals voted with
hcm e. scfeat its r-coSnmttal they would certainty
have no objections; then " the issue before the House
came direct on unqualified negro suffrage those re-
