The following resolutions were reported
by committee appointed for that purpose,
consisting Of Major E. G. Ross. B.. W.
W oodward, and J., c. Burnett, all strong
friends of General Lane. The resolutions
were adopted
WHEREAS, The suppression of armed
rebellion against the Government has pre-
| cipitated upon the country important ques-
tions incident to the restoration of the States
lately in rebellion, upon which an unfortu-
nate disagreement has arisen between the
President and the Republican party of the
country therefore
ResOIUed, That we deprecate the course
which the President has seen proper TO
adopt, and while We are sincerely desirous
ofthe promotion Of harmony and unanimi-
ty in the administration IF the Government
We yet feel that we owe it to ourselves and
to our country to empbaticafly dissent from
the reconstruction policy which the Presi-
dent is endeavoring to establish as tending
to restore to political influence in the, Gov
eminent men who have sought by every
means in their power, to compass It's de-
struction, and who have not, as yet, mani
tested any Indication of an abandonment Of
that purpose. -rtf B. eaas SOS 4e.
Resolved, That in the controversy which
the President has inauguratsd by the veto
of the Civil Rights bill, our sympathiesa are
unequivoeally with the Congress, and we
heartily approve the action of that body in
all it's endeavors TO effect readiustment of
the political relations of the country, and
for the protection of the oppressed, Unto nists
and freedmen of the Southern States.
ResOlUed, That, occupying as has the
State of Kansas, a position OF intense, radi-
cal loyalty, during the terrible contest of
arms thatihas just closed, we feel Inundated
by the recent vote in the United States Sen
ate, of our Senator, James Is. Lane, In op-
position to the Civil Rights bill, and in in
dorsement of the perniciOus doctrines with
which the President returned and endeayor-
ed to defeat that eminently just and proper
measure. 4.s ~ s.s- -
ResOISed, That the majoritg of Congress,
who have unfinchingly represented the SEN
timent of the people, and nobly resisted
the allurements of Federal patronage, are
deserving of the lasting gratituds.of their
constituents, and.of the country.

The FIRST Case.

A dispatch from Lafayette Ind, gives
an account of the first suit under the Civil
Rights Law:
A colored man named Barnes brought
suit against prominent citizen before Es-
quire Wines this morning to inforce a con-
tract. The defendent, for answer, sets up
that the negro came into the State in viola :
ton of the 18th article of the Constitution
of the State of Indiana which, under pains
and penalties, prohibits negroes from com
ing into the State, and debars them from
all rights. to 7infoFce contracts, &c. The
plaintiff demurs to answer, maintaining that
the thirteenth srticls-is void and of no eff
feet, because:
FErst-It is in CONFIRMATION of the let
ter and spirit of the Constitution of the
United Sttaes. = GUOgaUIE
Second-It is In direct cop6iet with the
Constitutional amendment abolishiBg sla-
very. -. 81 5
IHird-Itis void under.lthe 6rst section
of the civil rights bill, which gives to all
persons born in. the United States, fullright
to make and inforce contracts, any law,
statute, ordinance, regulation, or custom to
the contrary notwithstanding. aaA
The Court sustained the demurrer, and
the defendent appealed to the. Circuit Court,
which was in session. The decision had
not been renderedsa 2 9gssEqe.s ia
Under the second section of the civil
rights bill he can only decide in. favor of the
negro, for the reason that al adverse decis-
ion would subject him TO, the penalty of
3 900 fine and imprisonment.

OF which $10o has been paid demand and nearly
the same amount put IN process OF collection.
Tho general defence set up by such postmas-
ters is that they should be credited with the
stamps which they turned 70 the Confederate
government. Mr.. Cohen, or Savannah member
elect to the House of Representatives, claims
over nvc thousand dollars; and Mr. Galloway,
OF Memphis nine thousand dollars. The

recovery. II is generally believed that nearly the whole
amount can be collected. as the government win have
the advantage OF very stringent attachment passed
