Mr.. Vallandigham's Speech,
EntmunhIG -I...


Our paper, this afternoon, contains the
revised report OF Mr. YALLANDIGHASs $
speech, delivered on the occasion of the
Eighth of January Festival at Columbus.
We are too restricted in space to indulge In
any lengthy commentary upon it, did we
regard comment as important. We leaye
that to our readers, who never fail to
soberly and carefully peruse anything that
cmanates from such au intellectual and
patriotic source. Like all his efforts, be-
fore either dGliberative or popular bodies.
1t is marked with bold thoughts sound
principles and full of patriotic fire. 1t is
one of the finest speeches of that memoir
able occasion-made memorable by the fact,
that, had there been such an assemblage in
the Capital of Ohio, even rs late as the pre-
vi0us anniversary OF that glorious day,
and such speeches delivered as this, and iIll
the Others, "7redsoa" would have heen
cried, and it would have been honored hy
the visit of some insolent and irresponsible
shoulder-strap, at the head Of squad Of
quite probably, negro muskets, aud the
festival adjourned to some distant Black
Republican Bdstle. The & Freedom Of
Speech" was Cloquently and boldly vindl-
Gated, and Truth, crushed to earth," was
eXhumed from its temporary tomb.

Negro Suffrage in the District.

We have already noticed the fact that
the bill which forces negro suffrage on tile
people of the District of Columbia, has
passed the House of Representatives by a
large majority. With the exception ofia
few members from Kentucky, Virginia and
the West, the entire abolition vote of the
House was cast in its favor. This result
was not unlocked for, and very few people
are surprised by it. 1t only makes the
abolition readers, so industriously propa-
gated pending the late fall elections. and
gives the lie direct to all the promises and
professions upon which they succeeded in
carrying their elections.
No man can any longer be deceived as to
the real designs of the. negro-suffrage, ne
gro equality organization, nor will its ora
tors or newspapers be able to obliterate the
damning record. Negro equality-which
they so persistently denied as forming any
part of their political creed has by the de-
liberate action of the popular branch of
Congress, been made an essential element
in their organization. IL is now for the
people-the white men Of the country-to
say whether this foul stigma upon our Re
publican institutions, shall long continue
TO pollute the statute book of the nation.
The New York Herald gives this brief
and graphic sketch of the scene which fol-
lowed the passage of the bill: .. +.
''The galleries were flied with anxious
spectators and listeners of both colors, the
blacks prepOnderatimg, however. The pas
sage of the bill was hailed with such bois-
ferrous and prolonged applause on the floor
that Speaker ColiaX lost his temper, and
said that he wOuld not In future attempt To
suppress the galleries unless members
behaved themselves. Jubilant radicals
rushed into the lobhies, the halls and the
barber shops and grasped the greasy hands
of every thoroughbred freedman they found
in those localities. Coming down from the
galleries big darkies j0stled loftily against
the high-born DANES of this District and
trod upon their drapery with an air of li-
vine right. In the street ears they hob
nobbed With successful Congressman and
grinned faniiary in the faces of the here
tofOre ruling race" . .t,.l1 g. fHH.U''

THE POSITION or GOVERNOR swANN--THE
MARYLAND REGISTRY LAw--MR. STEWART
OFT WITH ANOTHER RECONSTRUCTION
PLAN--CoLoRApo AGAIN--THE CONrtRAA-
TON OF Mr.. sLoANAKER.
WASHINGTON, May II.
There is much uneasiness among the
Radicals at the position takenby Governor
Swami. of Maryland, in support OF the
President and his policy. They are I'M
sparing in their denunciations Of what they
term his apostacy, and many OF them ADMIT
that the event is calculated TO have great
weight in lessening the Radical power IN
Maryland. The political character oil TO
vernon Swami has been always that OF ai
unconditional Union man, and there can oc
no doubt of the influence the stana ne mas
taken will have with the people VI MS
State. To relieve Maryland from tue ne
gistry law, however, will require the eicc-
fion of a new legislature, when VIII favor
the calling of a convention, to be elected
bv the people, FOR the purpose of repeating
the statute. The Radicals now have un-
limited power in the State; but time can
work happy changes in this respect when
prominent and thoroughly loyal leaders
speak ont against the injustice of the pre-
sent Radical crusade.
Senator Stewart, OF Nevada, is out with
another plan for reconstruction. Ii IS
amendatory of his recent proposition to
exchange impartial suffrage for univcral
amnesty, and recognizes in its other pro
visions the points of the Reconstruction
Committees report without endorsing the
third section, which occasions so much an
noyance. The question will probably come
up in the Senate during the present week,
when new phases will be presented by as
piring Radicals. Summer will object 10 this
section on principle, while other Senators
will fight il on the ground of its bad effect
rs party measure; but il will not be a
matter of surprise if, in the end, il should
pass the body by two-third Vote, as il did
in the House when Stevens demanded its
adoption. The only prospect of its being
thrown out consists in the fact that there Is
no Radical Senator obeyed so implicitly as
the Pennsylvania member, though there
are two or three of medium ability who
compare with him in bitterness and vitupe-
ration.
1t was generally expected that veto
message on the subject OF the Colorado
bill would he sent To the Senate to-day.
and the fact of there having been no such
action has led 10 the rumor that the bill
will not be vetoed after all. As have be-
fore stated, there is no authority for any
assertion either one way or the other with
regard to what the President will do i'll the
premises. A day or two must decide its
fate.
The confirmation of Mr.. Sloanaker as
collector of internal revenue at Phladel-
phia By the Senate to-day was the occasion
of some surprise, as it was in opposition to
oft-repcated assertions that no one who is
appointed by the President in the place OF
parties removed for political reasons would
bc confirmed. There has been strong
Radical cutlery on account OF the removal
OF Mr.. Sloanaker's predecessor.

UONoRs TO THE MEMORY OF JACKS0N.-At
Stauntou, on the 10th, the soldiers graves
were decorated with flowers. \ procession
was formed, and all the carriages in the
whole county were placed at the disposal
of those unable to walk. The bells tollcd,
and the band played funeral march rs the
procession moved slowly to the church. AT
the door the remnants of the Stoncwall Bri-
gadc formed in line, while the women and
children passed into the church. After 4
beautiful anthem, Colonel Skinner made Il
short address. Then followed other chants,
and speeches from Captains Baumgardncr,
Harrison and Christian, and Mr.. Payton.
After the speaking was over, the procession
reformed and marched to the cemetery,
where every grave was decorated with flow
crS. Each mourncr thought of the loved
and lost as they revercntly laid the bright
flowers on the lOwly graves. In the sacred
presence of the dead all bitter feeling was
forgotten, and the graves of several Federal
soldiers buried there were not neglected.
During the day all places of business were
closed, as were al schools, even including
those of the Frcedmen's Bureau. AT every
corner negroes were stationed, either with
baskets of boqucts and wrcathS, or wagons
literally filed with flowers, sent in from the
