PROTECTION OF CIVIL RIGHTs.-The
following important bill, guaranteeing
protection of civil rights to all citizensaef
the United States, was taken up in the
Senate on Friday, and passed by vote
of 33 TO II:
"That all persons born in the United
States not subject to any foreign power,
excluding Indians not taxed, are hereby
declared to be citizens of the United States
without any distinction of color, and there
shall be no discrimination In civil rights
OF immunities among the inhabitants, of
any State or Territory of the United States
on account of race, color or previous con-
dition of Slavery but the inhabitants of
every race and color, without regard to
previous condition Of Slavery or involun-
tary servit11e, except as punishment for
crime whereof the party shall have been
duly convicted, shall have the same right
to make and enforce, contract, sell, be
parties, and give evidence, to inherit, pur-
chase, lease, sell, hold and convey real
and equal benefit of all laws aud proceed
ings for the security of person and pro-
perty, and shall be subject to like punish
ment, pains and penalties, and to none
other; any law, statute, ordinance, sregu-
lation or custom to tho contrary Rotwith-
standing"
The remaining sections provide for
penalties and judicial proceedings. This
bill expressly recognizes the colored
natives of this country as citizens of the
United States, and, as such, guarantees
to them every civil right, equally with
other citizens, allowing no State or other
local authority to oppress or degrade
them, or in any manner subject them to
disabilities or indigniticcs. in short, this
bill fulfills the pledges given In President
Lincon's two Proclamations of Freedom,
and in the passage of the Constitutional
Amendment of last Session The vote
was very full, and the majority most de-
cisive.

Fixing the Basis of Represen-
tatiOn.


1t will be recollected that some days
since the House of Representatives re-
terred to the Committee on Reconstruc-
ton resolution providing for an amend
ment to the Constitution fixing the basis
OF representation on the actual voters In
each State. Hon. Thaddeus Stevens,
chairman of the committee, on Thursday
reported back the resolution, after the
clause referring to direct taxation had
been stricken out, the committee being of
opinion that the point could be LETT for
the amendment of the House.
+ The Following is the shape of the reso-
luton as 1t was reported TO the House:
Resotved, By the Senate and House
of Representatives of the United States
of America assembled, two-thirds of botn
Houses concurriug, that the following
article be proposed to the Legislatures of
the several States as an amendment to the
Constitution of the United States, which,
when ratified by threesfourths of said
Legislatures, shall be valid as part of said
Constitution, viz: Representatives shall
be apportioned among the several States
which may be included within this Union
according to their respective numbers,
counting the whole number of persons Ia
each State excluding Indians not taxed :
provided that whenever the elective fran
chise shall be denied or abridged in any
State on account of race or color, all per-
sons therein Of such race or color shall
be excluded from the basis of representa-
tiou"
After full and fair discussion of this
resolution, in which the prominent men
OF both parties freely engaged, it was
adopted by vote of l20 to 40, more
than two-thirds of the House. This, so
far as the action of the House is concern
ed, settles the basis of reconstruction
precisely on the principle suggested by
the President Of the United States, while
1t fixes on solid foundation and In good
faith, the relations of cordial under
standing between Andrew johnson and
the Representatives of the loyal men of
the land
There IS no doubt that the Senate will
concur in the action of the House. The
spirit of the majority in the Senate is in
harmony with the dominant members of
the House, and we firmly believe that the
States of the Union, by vote as decisive
as that of Congress, will ratify this amend
ment, when it is referred to The Lesisla-
lures thereof. The Union leaders of the
country can now go before the people in
the coming election with an issue on
which there will be no failure, and with
arguments for the justice of their cause,
TO which there can be no effective replies
made.
