The Public Whipping Case,

The sentences of Judge Aldrich, passed on

ter, prisoners found guilty Of larceny, the
former to receive thirty-nine lashes at inter
walls of every two months, and the latter five
lashcs each at the end of month, have been
annulcd by the military authorities, says the
"Charcston Courier" on the ground that
they are in violation of Gen. Sicklcs' orders,
issued on the lst of January, Paragraph
XVIII of which says: "No corporal pun
ishment shall be inflicted on any person other
than minor" &C., and that by parent or
guardian.

created false impression, we give below the

The Presidents Veto,

The Presidents Veto.
President JOHNSON has returned to the
Senate, in which body it originated, the Freed
mems Bureau bill, with his objections The
President, in mild, conciiatory style, gives
his reasons for withholding his signature from
the bill. He regards it unconstitutional and
also unnecessary
As may be imagined, it has widened the
breach between the Executive and the Rati-
calls. In fact, the war has just begun between
the friends of the President and the!Radicas
The following proceedings of Congress viii
show in what spirit the veto was received by
that body:
WASHINGTON, Feb. 20, 1866.-ln the
Senate to-day Mr. Wall offered a resolution
proposing to amend the Constitution by rem
dcring person ineligible to fill the Presidcn-
tial chair for second term. In the course of
his speech upon the subject he alluded in
caustic terms to the President, whom he said
had developed policy agreeable to every en-
emy of the country Mr.. Wilson offered
resolution, which was adopted nstructng the
Committee on Reconstruction to enquire how
far the late rebcllious States had conformed
to the sentiments contained in the Presidents
reconstruction policy.
Mr.. Davis, of Kentucky, read long, :
mcnt in opposition to the Freedmcn's Bureau
Bill and sustaining the veto message of the
President.
Mr.. Trumbull followed, opposing the veto.
The vote was taken upon the passage Of the
Bill over the veto and resulted, ayes 80, nays
18. So the vote was insufficient to procure
the passage Of The Bill. 1--.ssq;} SyS T.
In the House, Mr.. Stevens, from the Com
mittee on Reconstruction, reported Joint
Resolution declaring that no Senator or Rep
resentative shall be admitted to either branch
of Congress from any Of the late rebelious
States until Congress shall have declared such
States entitled to representation.
Mr.. Grinder obtained leave to read the
Minority Report Of the Committee on Recon
struction, declaring that the State of Tenncs-
ncssec is entitled to representation.
Mr.. Stevens said it was his earnest disposi-
tion until yesterday to inquire into the condi-
tion of the State of Tennessee and see wheth-
er that State is entitled to representation, but
since. then there has been change and it is
entirely out of the power Of the Committee to
proceed further without surrendering the
rights of that body to the usurpation Of anoth-
er power.
Much excitement prevailed during the pro-
ccedines.
Stevens demanded vote on thc previous
question. \ motion was made to adjourn in
order to stavc off the vote, but failed
The House will continue its session tonight.
STILL LATER.-Stcvcns' Resolution to de-
privc the Southern States of representation

WASHINGTON, February %, 1S66.-In the
Senate, Bill was introduced to continue the
Frcedmen's Bureau for two years longer, which
was referred to the Military Committee. An
animated debate then cnsued, anJ the question
was taken on Stevens resolution relative to
the admission of the Southern States, which
was decided in the affirmative.
