From Washington,

A correspondent of the Baltimore
| sun, under date of WASHINGTON.
January %, writes as follows:
| IL Is known that the Justices of the
supreme Court have been conferring
IN relation to the trial of Jefferson
laws 1or some time, and there is not
much doubt that they, or n portion of
them, inspired tho bill of Mr.. Clark
In the Senate. The indications are
very strong that the Court has decid-
ed adversely to the test oath of 1862
but the reasons why a promulgation
to that effect is not now made are
obvious.
The members elect to Congress
from the Southwest are on the point
of returning home. It is due to truth
to state that they have had little hope
from the start. The hope of most
congressman to designate persons
for Southern Offices for purposes of
Interior advantages in trade affairs is
what hardens them against recon-
struction.
This game may be measurably
blocked by appointing good men who
are to the 'manor born" The era of
constrained good feelings between
radical and conservative politicians is
near its end, unless the former soon
lower their crest. AS things are, it is
thought that even Tennessee mem
bers cannot be admitted, though Mr..
Colfax has said that he should take
the floor to advocate their rights to
seats. The flood of experimental
legislation, of mere partisan nature,
that the radical leaders are seeking
to engraft upon th, fundamental law,
not less than their sw irrational idea
of general negro suffrage, is alarming
to moderate-minded men even in
Congress. They are raising their
incongruous fabric so high that before
long it will tumb into undistinguish-
ed ruin.
P. S.-The prospect is that the
negro suffrage bill will not be def
nitely acted upon in the Senate for
considerable time. Better ideas are
getting some foothold, as will be seen
by the remarks Of Mr.. Fessenden to-
day in the Senate
A special despatch to the Richmond
Times, dated Washington, January
"a, says: The proceedings in the
House to-day were devoid of interest,
except the debate on the report of
the Joint Committee of Reconstruct
ton. Stevens did not attempt to
drive the previous question. He
finds his power was not SO great as
he had calculated. The Republican
team will not work we'll in the traces.
The whole thing boiled down
amounts to this: ''Most of those who |
at first expected, and whom Stevens
relied upon to vote for the resolution,
now, upon reflection, oppose it,"
Every member has an amendment to
offer, emitting his political idiosynoc-
racy. About twenty amendments
have been offered-more coming.
Now the plain facts are, the House
will reject the resolution, or order its
recommittal. But something even
more offensive to the South may be
looked for when the Committee again
reports. QUID NUNC.

RICE. Formerly, we sent $4,000
tons of rice to Europe; but, since the
war, Europe sends heavily to us. The
crop was every where lighter than
usual last year. North Carolina,
whose annual product used to exceed
2OO, 600 casks, raised but 1000.

FREEDMEN IN THE GULF STATES.
Col. Osborn. Commissioner for Flori-
da, reports to Gen. Howard that the
affairs of the Bureau in that State
are favorable. The high price of
cotton is inducing planters to offer
high wages for the current year.
The average wages paid freedmen
will be twelve dollars q month The
substantial planters, the Colonel
says, have degree of consideration
for their former slaves that could
have hardly been expected, and are
offering liberal wages, quarters and
rations, with the privilege to the
laborer of keeping his family with
him at little expense. There are
eighteen freedmen's schools in the
State, all in a fourishing condition,
having twenty-one teachers and
1,91S pupils.
Gen. Tillson, Assistant Commits
s-oner for Georgia, has also forward
ID to Gen. Howard number of COM
olunications relative to freedmen
rom agents and others in that State.
In some counties the freedmen have
entered into contracts and gone to
work. The planters are in high
spirits, and say the freedmen really
act as though they were going to
work. In some counties, Mitchell
for instance, the freedmen have
nearly all left, and Maj. Hastings, one
of the agents, says he can't blame
them, as the white people residing
there are nearly as poor as the blacks.
We presume, without knowing.
however, that they have emigrated to
some section where the whites are
wealthier. On the large plantations
the contracts with the freedmen pro-
vide for paying them third of the
crop.-Richmomd Dispatch. -.

GREELEY OPPOSES GIVING LAND TO
THE NEGROES. correspondent sug-
gests that Congress proffer to every
freedman forty acres Of public land
in Florida or relsewhere-to be inalien-
able for a term of thirty years.
We are opposed to any such act,
and to all legislation whatever about
or for negroes, as such, unless there
be peculiar and very urgent reasons
therefor. We wish it were possible,
by o three-line amendment to the
Federal Constitution, to prescribe
that all Federal, State or local laws or
regulations now extant, that create
or recognize any legal distinction
based on color, are hereby annulled,
and the enactment of any more such
precluded.
If it be necessary to pass declara-
tory act, setting forth that blacks,
like whites, may settle on and pre-
empt 16O acres of the public domain,
paying the cost ($10) of survey OR To-
cation, let it be done, but we trust it
is not necessary. Let us make this
land of equal rights and equal laws,
and there stop.-Neao Yo7'h: Tribune.

removed from Office this week, W. ".
Davis having been appointed to that 20
sition. The history of this appointment
stands thus Il. E. Parker, Dusty Plum
wanted the appointment Of Postmaster,
and being Of rather an anassuming dis
position did not like to ask Davis 4 Co.
to have him appointed. Having clerk
in his store who has always been known
as a radical of the first class, Dusty pur-
suaded him to cease his radicalism and
talk little in favor of 'my policy and
by so doing he could get thc appointment
OF Assistant Postmaster from Davis,
move the office into his store and they
would keep the thing in partnership; he
would increase his wages, and by having
the Office there his store would gain Gus.
tom aud he receive some pecuniary gain
from 1t, they would send Davis x Cos
letters, franked by Dooittie, Cowan and
others, through the mail, and in the end
they would all gain by the transaction
The clerk consented, and the name of the
present Post master would be, as the thing
now stands, Dusty .BEN-DAvIs. We pre-
spne persons calling for latters will be
compelled to give the sign of recognition
ot the knights of the Golden Circle"

one of the Knights, Davis has or is about
taking the first degree, and Ben has seen
