HOUSE WASHINGTON, July Is

.7g HOUSE. WAsHINGToN, July Is.
The House resumed, as the bnsiness of
the morning hour, the consideration of
the Senate bill to authorize the construe.
ton of bridges over the Mississippi for
Railroad purposes. The pending qaes-
tion being an amendment reported from
the Post Office Committee reserving the
right to Congress to cause the renewal
of all obstruction to the navigation of
the river that may be caused by snch
bridges, ~
After considerable debate the bill
passed
The House proceeded to take the Sen
ate for breach of privilege charged
against Mr.. Rousseau in assaultlDg
Grinnell, for words spoken in debate.
The Committee, after reviewing the
case, reports that in assaulting Mr.. Grin
nell, on account of words spoken in de-
bate, for the purpose of disgracing him
as q member of the House, and deprivlng
him of due influence as member, MIR
Rousseau committed an inexcusable
breach of privilege of this House and of
the people represented by Mr.. Grinnell,
for which no provocation can be pleaded,
which merits the strongest condemnation
in the power of the House to enforce.
The Committee then reviewed the
charges of cowardice, and recommended
that the House express its disapproba-
ton of the personal reflections of Mr..
Grinnell upon the character of Mr.. Rous-
seau, as breach of privilege and a
ground for expulsion, and that he be
brought before the bar of the House or
held subject to its order. The Commit
tee further urged rigid adherence to
the rules of the House in relation to
personalities.
Resolved, That the Hon. Lowell III
Rousseau, representative from Kentucky
by committing an assault on the person
of Hon. J. B. Grinnel, representative
from Iowa, for words spoken ip debate
has Justly forfeited his privileges as o
member of this House, and is hereby ex
pelled. r,
Resolved, That the personal refsc
tions made by Mr.. Ginnel on the charac
ter of Mr.. Rousseau, were violation o.
the rules regulating debate, and the
privileges of its members founded there
on, and merit the disapproval of the
House.
Resolved, That Charles Pennebacker
of Kentucky, L. B. Grigsby, of Kentucky
and John s. Morrow, of Ohio, by thei
presence and participation in premedi
tated assault by Mr.. Rousseau, of Ken
tueky, on Mr. Grinnell, on account o
words spoken, in which the person,
not the lives, of the members of thi
House were imperilled, were guilty o
a violation of privileges, and they ar
hereby ordered to be brought to tn
bar of the House to answer for thei
contempt of its privileges;

FROM very intelligent gentleman, a
resident of Alabama for many years and
all during the war, we learn that it is
hardly possible to conceive the change in
the fortunes of the people of that sec
ton Despair is rapidly taking the place
of every other feeling Speaking OF the
approaching Philadelphia Convention,
the gentleman referred to remarked, that
if any of the men who brought SO many
misfortunes on the people of the South
should unfortunately ind place there,
they will not represent their people.
The South foug ught as long as it could-it
is beaten; il is humbled. Her people
ask to share in the government of their
fathers, and ask no more. From the
temper of the people of the North, so
far as he can ascertain it, our Alabama
friend believes that all will yet be well,
and that our politicians no more truly
represent us than the Hotspurs of the
South represent that section. If the
people could get together, our present
differences could be settled in day, he
thinks, and the Southern people would
take MP with renewed heart aud hopes
the work of restoring what is after all
common country. Brooklyn Eagle

woman suffrage. =

.'The women folks have had a fine
time during the past week ID ycntila-
ting their IDEAS at Cooper. Institute, on
female suffrage. Mrs. Stanton, Miss
Mott, and other shemales have waxed
wroth at the men for their barbarity in
refusing them like rights with them
selves. The only wonder that strikes
US is. that these female monsters did
not abuse the Creator for not making
them like the men. If they expect
like rights, OF course, it logically folF
lows that they ought to be Ike the men
in all respects The Creator would not
have made them different had He not
intended them to- occupy a different
sphere. The same rules that apply to
different races or species of men also
apply to the different sexes. Each sex,
each race, has its own natural position
IN society, corresponding to its organ
ism, and is no more in slavery in that
position than white men are in slavery
when fulfilling the laws ofiltheir crea-
ton. However, one wise Democratic
editor, we observe, declares that woman
suffrage is inevitable, and We presume
he stands ready to surrender to Mrs.
Elizabeth Cady Stanton without a whim-
per. Well, if negroes arc to vote, it
does not make much matter who votes.
Indeed, the sooner the farce Of voting is
then played out, the better. Let us
welcome despotism or fght.-Day
