ALEXANDER H. STEPHENS

The Reconstruction Committee to-day re
ported a large mass OF testimony, including
that of Alexander II. Stephens. He spoke from
extensive correspondence and conversations
from leading men Of Georgia, giving as his de.
liberatc opinion that the people of that State
are exceedingly anxious for the restoration OF
the Government and for the State to take her
former position in the Union and to enjoy all
her rights and discharge her obligations as a
State under the Constitution of the United
States as 1T stands amende |. The people are
sufficiently satisfied with the experiment of Sc.
cession never to resort TO that measure OF re.
dress again by force. They have come to the
conclusion it is better to appeal to the powers
OF reason and justice 10 the halls of legislation
and the courts for the principles of constitu.
tsenal liberty than to the arena of arms. The
idea of secession is totally abandoned.

THE COOLEST THING VET

About the most refreshingly icy thing of this
muggy weather, was the proposal of Mr. Ste
vens, in the House to-day, for that body 10 take
stock in the Washington Morning Chronicle.
Mr.. Stevens resolution proposing to bleed
the contingent fund of the House for the sup.
port of that paper to the effect that sswhere-
as it is important that our legations abroad
should be kept duly advised OF the state of the
country, therefore, be it resolved by the House
of Representatives, the Senate concurring, tina,
the Clerk of the House be requested to furnish
three copies of the Washington Morning Chron.
icle to each of our foreign legations, consulates
and commercial agencies, and pay the same
out of the contingent fund of the House." Mr.
Stevens had the nerve to ask suspension OF
the rules to carry his resolution through, but
the House couldn't exactly stand the dose
and in this instance, at least, failed to s.follow
my leader"

PERSONAL AFFAIR THE SENATE.

In the Senate today rather an extraordinary
scene occurred, creating no little sensation for
a time on the floor and in :he galleries. On the
question under debate concerning a branch OF
the Union Pacific Railroad, MIR. McDougaI
charged that his colleague was animated in his
action by personal motives. Mr.. CONFESS made
a bitter reply, alleging that his colleague mis-
represented and disgraced his State, and tina,
nothing but feeling of charity had prevented
him (Mr. g. from moving his expulsion. Mr..
McDougal in answering Mr.. CONFESS, pro.
ceeded to tell story which rather astonished
the ladies in the gallery, and was deemed SO
Objectionable by the President of the Senate
that he interposed to stop Its further narration
Mr.. McDOugal proceeded with personal ex
PLANTATION at some length, but in a tone inau.
dible in the reporters gallery

OPPOSITION TO FREEDMEN's SCHOOLS

ORtOsIIION ~ hEEDMENS SCHOOLS.
The Inspector of the Freedmen's Bureau at
Warrenton, Va. reports, concerning the recent
manifestations of hostility towards the freed
men on the part OF the people OF Fauquier
County, that there can be no doubt of an insult.
ing and mischievous element in the popula.
ton. He is pleased, however, to state that the
socially respectable people take decided ground
at least III conversation and III writing
against rowdyism and all interference with
the Assistant Superintendent and the colored
school teachers. He says of the two attacks
recently made upon the school house and
abuse OF the lady teacher, that they are not, as
the Richmond Times has twice stated in edi-
toriais, ''either inventions or dreams of the
lady, resulting from eating mess pork for sup
per-" as the Mayor has recognized the truth of
the report made to the Commissioner of the
Freedmen's Bureau, and the Town Councils
have passed an ordinance on the subject.
making it the duty Of the local police to protect
the school. and have offered a reward for the
perpetrators Of these outrages.
