CHRISTMAS Is Observation-Disclosures spoiled
the Irish Christmas, and substituted appychcu-
sion and military preparations for the festive
scenes So much enjoyed 10y the Irish people.
The last foreign news represents that much cN-
citcmcnt prevailed at Christmas in the chict
cities of ireland, in consequence of the apprc-
hensou of Fenian-rising on Christina, eve, coz
Christmas day. The authorities acted with
such energy, and adopted such vigorous mill
tlry measures, "a, would only consist with a we'll
grounded anticipation OF an extraordinary out
break. The police were everywhere strength
eaed AMI doubly armed. rotrol, were ac-
tiv,ly u,vns about To- AN directions. Heavy
rcinlorcemcnts of troops were sen, over from
England, and ships cf War were held in rcadi-
ness for any emergency. % is pleasing 90 hc
able To record thatthc scenes of violence which
were anticipated did not occur. Whether they
were prevented by timely measures OF rcpres-
sion, or whether the alarm was uuiouudcd, We
have uo means, as yet, OF judging.

COLORADO.-The reason why Colorado has
not yet become State of the Union, under
the act Of Congress Of March, 1864, is shown in
a communication sent to Congress by the Pres
ideut The first State constitution made by

people, and the second one, made in 1863, and
which the people approved, the PreSideu;
deems not to have been in accordance with the
act Of Congress. lie consequently declines to

made in the filh section OF the law, and now

Proceedings OF Congress-
WASHINGTON, Jan'y Is.
SESArE.-Mr Chandler, of Michigan, submitted
resolution declaring that whereas the British Gov
eminent has refused indemnity for damage done to
American commerce by Her Majestys subjects, in
the late war, therefore
Resolred, That the President be requested 10
withdraw our Minister from the Court of st. James,
and declare national non intercourse between the
two nations
The resolution was objected TO, AMI goes under
the rules.
Mr. Howard, of Michigan, offered a joint resolu-
ton to the following effect
"wuEREAs, It appears by the report of the Secre-
tary War, that Jefferson Davis and ClementC. Clay,
now held in confinement, were concerned in the as
sassination of President Lincoln and the murder OF
Federal sOldiers-prisoners Of war-therefore il is
spectfully recommended that they be Immediately
tried by military commission or courmartia"
The resolution being objected to, lies over.
IIousE.-Tbe credentials of Representatives elect
from Arkansas were presented, and referred TO the
Committee on Reconstruction.
A proposition, which received only twelve votes
was made to allow the negroes in the District Of Co
lumbia to decide by ballot whether white men
should vote.
Mr. Stevens introduced resolution instructing the
Committee of the Judiciary to enquire into the eX
pediency of amending the act of January 4, 1869
relating to the test OATH TO allow attorneys at
law to practice their profession without taking said
oath, or qualifying as all other professions are re-
quired to do He said that by the act referred to- which
was passed during the war attorneys prohibited
from practicng without taking that oath, but as
since the war many men who were engaged in the
rebellion are trying to make living but are pro-
hibited from practcing law he did not why they
should not be placed on footing with other pro-
ressons. Therefore he proposed the enquiry. The
resolution was adopted-yeas 50 nays n.
Mr.. Kasson made statement denying the pub
lished charge that Mrs Lincoln had taken from the
White House articles paid for by the United States.
The House resumed the consideration of the negro
suffrage BILL before disposng of which the House

OF War and the Navy to place at the disposal
Of the Commissioners of Quarantine, to be

ACKNOwLEDGEs.

A letter was recently published, written
by Chas. A. Dana, of the Chicago Repu6H-
can, to the President, in January last, in
which he asked appointment as Collector Of
the port of New York. He urged his claims
on the ground Of his national reputation and
influence; his freedom from entangling COM
plications and differences Of opinion, and his
power to harmonic the different classes upon
himself
We were inclined to regard this production
which first appeared in the Washington
REPUBLIcAN-as q jocose oanard Its ego
| tism, Its self assurance, and its oomplacency.
were evidences Of o weakness Of which We
supposed even Mr.. Dana incapable. But we
were mistaken. In recent issue of his Re.
publican, he not only acknowledges that he
did write the letter, but actually justihss 1t.
For some weeks past, the Chicago Rspub.
bean has INDUCED In a series of attacks upon
the President, Of unmeasured bitterness
merely expressing difference Of opinion az
to policy, but assailing him soarsely in his
individual character. Previous to that time,
II had been considered an Administration
organ, and as such the leading exponent Of
opinion at the West. In the light Of the
revelation now made, the sting will be taken
GU. Of its criticisms. However men may
differ in views upon the public course Of Mr..
johnson, there are very few who will justify
a warfare that Is instigated by such motives
as are now confessed in this case.-ABany

The Senate yesterday passed a very i'm.
portant bill, giving a very important monop-
oily of telegraphing to the West India Islands
to company who propose to lay subma-
rine cable from the Atlantic coast to the
West Indies. Mr.. FEssESDEN made some
forcible objections to giving the company
sole power to establish and maintain the
proposed telegraph line for fourteen years,
but his amendment was voted down, and SO
was that offered by Mr.. SHERMAN, giving
Congress power to regulate the rate of tolls.
Mr.. CHANDLER said the Committee on Com.
merce had spent months in maturing this
bill, and they have certainly matured a mo,
nopoly as perfect Of its kind as could be
asked for by the most greedy monopolist
We trust that the bill will not pass the House
without careful examination.
