PHILADELPHIA, April IS.
There is a slight lulI in the American
political world. The great excitement
attending the passage of the Civil Rights
Bill through Congress has been followed
by a slight depression, caused chiefly by
Congress not knowing exactly what to
do next, and the President waiting for
them to strike the first blow. 1t is a
rare thing in American legislation for a
President to veto a law, and still more
rare for Congress, to be able to muster
the two-thirdS vote necessary to pass it
over the veto. The acts Of the past few
days are therefore deeply significant.
Since the foundation of the Government,
in all the multitude of Bills passed by the
80 Congresses, there have been but %
vetoes, an average of but one in three
years. OF these President Washington
sent two to Congress !; President Madi-
son, six; President Monroe, one; Presi-
dent Jackson, nine; President Tyler,
four President Polk, three; President
Buchanan, one and President Johnson,
two. Presidents John Adams, Jefferson,
John Quincy Adams, Van Buren,, Harri-
son, Taylor, Fillmore, Pierce, and Lin
coin never sent any vetoes to Congress,
and their administrations covered an ag-
gregate of nearly 33 years. Of the %
vetoes sent to Congress, in but two cases
have the friends of the rejected Bills
been able to muster two-thirds OF the

case was an unimportant law In Tyler's
administration, and the second is the last
veto of President Johnson, the Civil
Rights Bill. It is needless to say now
that if the whole country were represent
ed in Congress, that veto would be sustain
ed by a large majority of both Houses !;
indeed, the vetoed Bill never could have
been passed in the first instance. Hav-
ing received two-thirds-33 to Is in the
Senate and 1872 to Al in the House, that
fact is officially recorded on the back Of
the engtossed Bill by the Secretary of the
Senate and the Clerk of the House, and
it is sent to the Secretary of the Senate,
who to-day proclaimed it to be the law
of the land.
With regard to the Civil Rights Bill,
the President has determined TO execute
it as leniently as its provisions will adj
NIT, but at the same time he recommends
the Southern States to appeal to the
Supreme Court in order to have its un-
constitutional provisions annuiled. The
Bill gives a large Discretionary power to
the President, and this he will use in
favour Of the South. Having been de-
lcated on this veto he is not yet suDdued,
however, but stands ready TO interpose
in any new case requiring his action.
The Radicals are, therefore, at a loss
how to proceed. It required almost SUI
%perhuman eXertions 10 pass this Bill,
and they fear defeat on any other reVo-
lutionary measures. They are divided
in opinion whether to pass the law now
pending in the Senate, giving negro suf-
trage in the district of Columbia, or whe-
,l.. -,-r 1.-r oooatI,O Do, 80, HS,.oa
all over the country shall not be brought
in. There are 40 constitutional amend
ments pending, each Of which 'deprives
the South of a portion Of its representa-
tive population, and they are equally at a
loss which of these to pass. A large
Radical party is in favour of im%pcaching
the President, and by this means getting
him out Of the way. The Chicago Tri-
bune and Republican and all the Radicals
Of the North West demand the impeach-
ment. They ever hold public meetings
to denouncc him and urge this high
handed outrage. In New England, how
ever, the desire for impeachment, while
it animates the majority of the party, has
not found expression in any public man
nor. Congress being at a loss what to
do, has devoted this week to the %transac-
ton of routine business, and to eulogizing
the dead Senator Foot.
y y \
To the distant observer Of American
affairs the reconstruction question and
the political battle waged between Con-
gress and the President are, no doubt,
matters of absorbing interest, but with
us they have suddenly paled before one
of the most shocking tragedies ever re-
corded. A series of murders rivalling
any described by De Quincy or chroni-
cled in English criminal annals, has been

TREAs'Y OF THE UNITED STATES.
- August 9. 1866.
The National Union Convention.

The wigwam, in which the sessions OF
the convention are to be held, was nearly
completed on Saturday evening. 1t has
a front of LAG feet upon Girard avenue.
The front is two stories high, and will
have twelve large windows and five
doors The doors to the galleries are at
the east and west ends OF the 'front.'.
The main entrance leads into vestibule
twelve feet wide and forty feet long, ter
minating at the lobby and opening into
the amphitheatre. This space will seat
about three thousand persons. 1t is
semi circular in the front, and termin-
ates by square angles at the south end.
1t will be provided with settees and
benches. I'D
The stage is at the extreme rear of the
building, and consists ola central staging
about twenty-five feet square, and side
stands for, reporters. The galleries,
which will seat about 1000, rise from
the east and west sides of the amphithe-
atre to the walls of the wigwam, curry
ing to the sides of the veStibule on the
north Access will be had to this
part of the structure through the
lobby and from the exterior. Only la
dies, or gentlemen accompanied by ladies,
will be admitted to the lower tier of
seats The space under the elevated
seats will be divided into smaller rooms
for the use of executive committees,
banqueting, telegraph room, &c Retir-
ing rooms will be placed in the rear of
the stage.
The interior of the wigwam will he
decorated with flags, and from the speak
er's stand will rise an arch of thirty six
sections, each section representing a
State The spaces will be occupied by
the coat-of.arms of the different CON-
moRwealths The roof of the immense
building is supported by columns placed
ten feet apart, and extending ten, feet
on each side from the end of the gale
ries TO the vestibule. The roof will be
of board, covered with fe,t, to prevent
leakage. BY a rise of Twelve feet at al
