Rcconstruction-The Radicals anu
,hcir Ends and Ains-Thc object OF
tho Party Attained, &c.

WASHINGTON, June l3.-The adoption oil
the senatorial constitutional amendment
bv the House was matter OF forcgone
conclusion. But there will be an opposl.
ton in that body, of greater or less
strength, to the bill reported from the
committee of fifteen for carrying the pro-
posed amendment into effect. This bill
requires the assent of States to the terms
of admission offered Us condition pre-
ccdent to their representation in Congress,
either in whole or part. 1t is introduced
to set aside entirely the Presidents plan OF
representation for the eleven southern
States. Mr.. Raymond and others oppose
it as unnecessary and calculated to make
false and damaging issue before the
people, who are becoming daily more
and more clamorous for the complete
restoration OF the Union. If they pass
this bill, whether Congress will override
the consequent veto or not, they Will
make an issue which the Radicals are
afraid to meet. They are just now in a
quandary upon this point. They think
they can get over everything except their
refusal to recognize loyal representatives
from the late seeded States. The Demo
Gratis, from policy, will be willing to see
the Republicans pass the bill. 1t will rem
der the condition no worse. The entire
Congress project of reconstruction will fail,
for almost every seeded State and num-
Der of the always loyal States will reject
it. 1t can do no harm, therefore, and may
do much good, to provide by law, cXclud-
! ing, in effect, the seeded States from all
participation in the Government counsels.
1t is perfectly certain that in no antlcl-
pated or probable event the Republican
maioritics of this Congress will, even at the
next session, admit any member or repre-
sentative from any one of the States that
seeded without compliance by the State
/ with the terms now proposed and required.
Congress has nearly completed the labors
of the session. Their object is attained
to make up an issue upon which the party
can maintain its power in Congress for two
wears more, and secure also the next presi-
Dental election. AS the next Congress
will be the President making Congress, il
the Radicals carry that, they will be Sc
cure, even at the cost OF another rcvolu-
ton: for, without resort to revolutionary
measures, they cannot exclude the south
crn States from their voice i'll the cleo
ton. lOfA.

Mr.. ROsseau, of Kentucky, Canes MIR.
GrinneII. of Iowa.

WASHINGTON, June l4.-Considerable
excitement was caused on the streets in
front of the capitol to-day. Mr.. Rosseau,
a representative from Kentucky, who had
a rattan with him, approached Mr.. Grin
nell, of Iowa, and said he had waited seve-
raj days for him to apologize for the out
rageous assault made on him in debate.
Mr.. Grinnell said, 81 have no apology to
make" Mr.. Rosseau thereupon caned him,
Grinnell making no resistance whatever.
When Mr.. Rosseau finished the fagella-
ton Grinnell merely said, at is all right, -
and the parties separated.

Special telegram 10 the hlchlhoh" p'HP"''n'
The National Banking Law Bold
Spcech of Mr.. Harris. of Maryland.
WASHINGTON, June I4.-Thc Banking
Committee of the House Of Repre-
scntativcs to-day reported bill
amcndatory of the national banking law,
providing for reduction of ten per cent.
of the circulation of existing national
banks, and to allow thirty millions of cir
culation for distribution amongst the new
southern banks. The bill contemplates no
increase of the present aggregate national
bank circulation of three hundred mil
lions.
Mr.. Harris, of Maryland, made a bold
and extraordinary speech in the House to-
dav. He maintained the right of ScceS-
sion, and said the south had exercised that
right, and were now foreign States, and
he would vote against their representation
here. Though the Confederate standard
had been lowered, the standard OF south
crn pride was still as high as ever. The
fact that their soil covered the bones of
three hundred thousand of their inva-
dcrs was not calculated to lower their
tone. He said Johnson was Illegally Pre-
sident because he was a citizen of a foreign
State. He denounced the military trial
and execution of Mrs. Surratt. The speech
created great sensation.

An Accurate History Of the Yorktown
Riot.
From the Norfolk Day Book.


HAMPTON, June IL, lS66.-Thc riot took
place Dist May. While the court was in
session it was disturbed by a noise, and the
sheriff was ordered to arrest the parties
making the disturbance and bring them
before the court; whcreupon Mr.. Jones,
clerk of Warwick court, and negro whose
name | have not learned, were brought III
and examined on the charge of contempt,
&c. From the statement of the negro, ana
from other testimony, it appears that while
Mr.. Jones and the negro were engaged IN
discussing the equality of the races, Mr..
Jones made use of language which he con-
sidcred personally offensive to himself,
whcrcupon he struck Mr.. Jones the first
blow.
The court, upon hearing this statement,
directed that the negro give security to
keep the peace, also bond in the penalty
of $500 for his appearance to answer an
Indictment, should one be found against
him by the next Grand Jury. During the
proceedings, white man (whose name l
have not learned) attempted to strike the
negro, but was prevented by the sheriff
and his assistants, and was fined by the
court for contempt. The negro being
unable to give the required security, and
there being no Jail in York county, the
sheriff was ordered to take him to- War
wick county Jail for safe-keeping; but the
sheriff, experimenting an effort or purpose
on the part OF other negroes to rescue
the prisoner, turned him over 10 the mill
tary officer at Yorktown, who agreed to
keep him in custody until the next day,
The deputy sheriff of York, Mr.. Curtis,
went with posse to Yorktown the next
day To execute the order of the court and
take the negro to Warwick Jail, but when
he arrived at Yorktown he found that the
prisoner had escaped; so he had to leave
without him, and coming out Of town, he
found that strong force Of armed negroes
had collected and were guarding the roads
leading from Yorktown in the direction OF
Warwick, for the purpose Of rescuing the
prisoner; but when they found that he
had made his escape, they fired vollcy,
By way of salute, and thus the matter
ended. Yours, truly,
MARION COLBERT.

Even Ii we lose this CnuIch property VIC
can 20 out and build larger and better
one.
General B. C. Howard said, consulting
other churches would avail nothing. The
question Is between tho pastor and the
congregation, and other churches cannot
persuade him that he is wrong.
The substitute was lost, bit two persons
voting for it. The rest Of the resolutions
we're adopted seriatim--all the series, to-
gcthcr With the preamble, being adopted
by rising vote of the congregation. :.
After tho adoption OF the resolutions, Dr.
J. 7. Flcmming presented a protest on
behalf Of himself and seventeen others
against the action of the meeting anu
claiming that the church property OF r.gns
vested in those who were In cohhec''et'
with the General Assembly only.
On motion of Mr.. Gill, the protest was
received and made part of the RECORDS OF
the meeting. .ho
After PRAYER by the moderator the
meeting adjourned.

THE COMMENCEMENT AT THE UNIVERSITY.
Hon. A. III. III. Stuart will address the lite

cient languages, and another of law, are

Don't FORGET THE STAMrS.-Pcoplc VINO
give receipts for money paid-and every
body does it-Should make a note OF the
result of a trial which took place in New
York the other day, and which shows how
perilous thing u neglect to put stamps
upon papers which require them may be-
come. Many persons have fallen into the
error of surprising that if a paper is not
stamped the omission may be rectliled at
any time at very little expense. This is
not correct. There was provision made
for validating unStamped papers, made
aud issued before the passage of the act
of 1864, upon compliance with certain
provisions. Similar provision is made
in the amended act of 1865, upon the
condition that the party derelict shall
pay fifty dollars and interest at six per
cent. on the stamp, if the cost Of the latter
is more than fifty dollars. But i'll addition
to this there is an actual penalty, which
may be enforced against any one who
issues unstampcd paper. Under the act OF
1864 ii was two hundred dollars in all cases.
Under the amended act of 1865 1t remains
two hundred dollars upon acceptorS and
payers of foreign bills of exchange without
first stamping the securities. In this case
in New York the party sued had neglected,
before the passage of the amended act OF
1865, to atiix stamps upon seven receipts
for the payment Of money. He was sued
for the full penalty in each case, amount
ing to one thousand four hundred dollars
in all, and verdict was given against him
for the whole sum. The stamps would
have cost fourteen cents so that, by his
saving habits on the occasion referred to,
he is one thousand three hundred and
ninety-nine dollars and eighty-six cents
out of pocket, besides lawyers fees and
cost of suit. The example is worthy of re-
membrance. There are no duties which
devolve upon citizen which can be as
cheaply discharged as those under the
stamp laws, and few which, if neglected,
may cost careless person more dearly

The CHOLERA AT New YoRK.-No cases
of cholera have occurred in New York
city since last report. The two cases which
occurred on Saturday are doing well.
These cases show that cholera can be pro-
duced by impure and unhealthy smells,
but that by being taken in time il can be
cured. But prevention is better than cure,
and every one should feel interested in his
own and his neighbors' health. The qua
rantine report for June 10 shows that
twenty-se convalescent patients have
been transferred from the hospital ship TO
other quarters. Six new cases had been
received, and there were since the last
report three deaths. Total number then
remaining, forty-one. UP to Tuesday
morning there had been four new cases
and one more death, making a total in hos
pital Of forty-four.

PHILADELPHIA, June 4.-Anticipating
the adoption of the constitutional amend

Curtin, of Pennsylvania, has addressed a
circular to the governors of the northern
States suggesting the propriety of union
in action and the calling together of the
Legislatures for the immediate ratification
of the amendment, and before the adj
iournmcnt of Congress.
This looks like movement to take a
snap judgment upon the south. 1t is
evident that they cannot trust newly
elected legislatures of their own States
while it is equally plain that it is the plan
of Curtin and all behind him to rule the
south out altogether. But there will be
