WASHINGTON, May SO.-It turns out to-day that
in the senatorial caucus after having agreed on
the plan of restoration now pending in the Senate
it was suggested that as Tennessee had, in ad-
vance, complied with all of the requirements con
tanned in the amendment, her Senators and Repre-
sentatives, should at once be admitted to their
seats in Congress. A long debate was had on
this proposition, and it was finally agreed to. 1t
was claimed that this step, after tho passage by
both Houses of the pending amendment would
elevate Congress on the great Issue of reconsruc-
ton. On the other hand, it was urged that such a
course looked too much like a conversion to the
Presidents policy but the proposition was
adopted, and as soon as the pending constitutional
amendmsnt passes both Houses, Joint resolution
will be iutrodsced to admit the Tennessee dele
gates to their seats in Congress.

TIE FRENCH EMPEROR. New Or
leans Times gives the following on the arl-
thority, of a gentleman of that city, who,
it states, was in Paris during the past Sum
mer, and had several opportunities of see
ing and conversing with the Emperor Ma
poleon.
This gentleman represents the Emperor
as being frank and gracious in his manners
and very communicative. He discourses
with nearly equal facility and fullness of in
formation on all subjects of history, gov
ernment, usages, laws, customs and insti-
tutions. In respect to his own peculiar
plans and policy, however, he is thorough
ly reticent. He has now million of men
circles, that it is his determination to in
crease the standing army by the addition
of million more, to be composed of citi-
zen soldiers.
The Navy yard at Cherbourg was a scene
of astonishing activity-from five to seven
thousand men being engaged in ship build
ing. Iron is the material of these new YES
sells. The Emperor has issued orders for
the extensive manufacture Of the needle
gun for the use of the army. 1t is not un-
derstood that he contemplates any new
complications which have rendered such
formidable warike preparations in advance
expedient. On the contrary, his disposi,
tion is reported as eminently pacific, and
that the object he has in view by such ter
rife displays, is the maintenance of the
peace of Europe. The Emperor is from
sixty to sixty-fve years of age, and his health
is evidently failing.
Our courteous informant also visited the
Champ de Mars, where the grand structure
for the Paris Exhibition is in course of
erection. This is an iron edifce, three
thousand and eighty-four feet in length and
twenty three hundred feet in width. The
columns are ninety feet in height. The
roof of this immense structure iscomposed
entirely of plates of glass.

An exchange thinks that the ridiculous
idea that Friday is an unlucky day ought
to be disregarded because the Great Eas-
tern left the Irish coast to lay the cable on
Friday, and on Friday Columbus set sail for
the New World. On Friday, too, the Great
Eastern reached Hearts Content, and on
Friday Columbus first saw the shore of the
Western World
A Chicago dispatch states that on Thurs
day last man, whose name was not given,
residing in Manchester, Iowa, murdered
his family and then himself Returning
home from his business, he seized his gun,
went into the yard, and shot his wife, then
shot his child and manned his wife's moth
er, after which he cut his own throat, caus-
ing instant death. Jealousy is said to- have
been the cause.

THE LADIES CONCERT IN TARBoRO'.-The
ladies of TarbOro on Thursday and Fri
day evenings, the Sth and 9th inst, gave a
series of Tableanx and a Concert for the
purpose of aiding in collecting funds for the
Stonewall cemetery for Confederate dead at
Winchester, Virginia.
We had the pleasure of being present on
Friday evening, and were delighted at the
performance There is a nobleness of vir-
tue in the heroic efforts of the ladies
of the South, to perpetuate the mem
cries of their loved and lost, that chains
the admiration of mankind. With so much
of womanly virtue and purity blended in
one common effort, the cause in which they
labor cannot fail of success, nor can the ex-
amples of devotion, manifested in behalf
of the martyred dead, be without their
effect on the youth of the country in any
future emergency that might overtake
them.
We would not, if we could, make any dis
tlnctlons Ill the acting of any of the young
LADIES or gentlemen, in their respective
parts, for all acquitted themselves so hand
somely that any determinations drawn
would be unjust and out of place.
By attending this concert, our devotion
to her of the "waying plume is again
shaken. For naturalness of acting and
gracefulness of style, my beautiful Bird
cannot be surpassed, and she wasn't. The
audience admired thee pretty little s.
tranger, and the humble hat of Sperry is
at thy disposal, forever.
We understand the receipts were quite
large, as might have been expected from a
community such as surrounds and consti-
tutes Tarboro.
At the conclusion of the performance,
Mr.. Mosley, native of the State, at the
invitation of the lady managers, in very
neat, well considered and appropriate little
speech, thanked the audience for the at
tention shown, and interest manifested by
all on the occasion.
We here take the liberty to say that the
laughter which proceeded from a certain
portion of the audience, at the slight dis
arrangement of a lady's dress during the
performance of a piece of music, was in
very bad taste, and decidedly out of place.
Persons in such evident want of decency,
should seek amusements elsewhere than in
the presence of ladies.
After the close of the entertainment,
like an owl in an ivy bush," we retired

AFTER DINNER SPEECHES. Mag
dsi,e tells the following on Daniel Webster,
while speaking under the influence of con-
vivial potations
At public dinner, where Webster was
to speak, he had to be promoted by
friend and, on his making pause, the
friend behind insinuated "national debt"
Webster at once fired up: "And, gentle
men, there's the national debit should
be paid yes, gentlemen, it should be paid,
and-lf it shan't be. I'll pay it myself
How much is it ?" And as he made this
query, with drunken seriousness, of gen.
tleman near him, taking out his pocket
book, which was always notoriously empty,
the absurdity was too much for the audi
ence.
Another of his speeches is reported in full
as follows Men of Rochester, am glad
to see you, and L am glad to see your
noble city. Gentlemen, 1 saw your falls,
which [ am told are one hundred and fifty
feet high. That is q very interesting fact.
Rome had her Caesar, her
Scipio, her Brutus but Rome in her proud
est days had never a waterfall a hundred
and fifty feet high Gentlemen, Greece
had her Pericles, her Demosthenes and her
Socrates ;*but Greece in her palmiest days
never had a waterfall hundred and fifty
feet high Men of Rochester, go on. No
people ever lost their liberties who had
one hundred and fifty feet high !"

That the Act of Congress makingsuc notes

He also held that the suspension of the

effect of the frost on the cotton crop, we
are reliably informed, has cut short the
crop fully one-ffth, which must be deduct

two weeks since. We believe this will APP
ply to all the cotton region north of this.
The picking season has been, and contin-
ues to be, remarkably good, which will en-
able planters to get in their crops carly
