they restore the natural action OF the system, and

The Reconstruction Committee reported
to the House on Tuesday large amount Of
testimony, in reference to the political cor
dition of the Southern States, which from
the standing of the witnesses, and the nature
of their testimony, will command attention.
Major Gen. Thomas, a Southern man by
birth and training, tcsti6es that the people
Of Alabama are extremely anxious to be un-
der the Constitution OF the United States,
and to have that State in its regular position
in the Union, but they are not personally
friendly to the Union that it is Difficult. to
say what portion Of the population are reli-
able Union men, the preponderance Of SEN
timent varying in different portions Of the
State. In central and southern Alabama,
the successful candidates, in the recent eloc-
tions, had been either in the rebel army or
active rebels He did not think it would do
to remove the United States troops He
says:
am satls1ed that until better state OF leel-
ing shall arise there-if all restraint should be
removed-the freedmen would be thrown back
into condition Of virtual slavery that Is, they
would be compelled by legislative enactments to
labor for little or no wages, and legislation
would assume such form that they would not
dare leave their employers for fear Of punish
ment; and unless white men, who had been
Union men through the war, had very strong
personal friends they could not live in the State
Gen. Grierson testifes Of the State Of
things in Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi and
Tennessee. He says:
1t is my firm belief, after sll I have been able
to learn Of the Southern people, during the war
and since the surrender, that the spirit Of ress-
tance still exists there as strong as ever, and
that in the event Of this country engaging Ia
foreign war, the enemies Of the Government Of
the United States throughout the South do
mediate and will not fail to seize that opportnn-
ity to attempt again its destruction"
Gen. Thomas and Gen. Grierson both ex-
press the belief that secret organizations for
disloyal purposes are being organized to
some extent at the South, to embarrass the
Government in all its efforts to restore the
Union; to resist the payment of the national
debt, or plot for the resumption Of the rebel
debt; to agitste for compensation for dam
ages inflicted during the war BY our armies

CoNGREssIosAL.-The billrcgulating trade
between the United States and Canada, of
which we gave an abstrac. the other day,
was discussed in the House on Tuesday.
Mr.. Morrill, of Vermont, the framer of
the bill, advocated it at length, urging i'm
mediate action on the ground that the pres
ent Reciprocity Treaty will expire on the
l7th of the present month. In relation to
she repeal Of the fishing bounties. and the
limitation of shore fishing, he did not anti
cipate that American fishermen would so de-
port themselves as to involve US in a var
with Great Britain. The bill was tor the
raising the revenue and not for the protec-
ton Of any home interests. Il was a neces-
sary and important measure.
Mr.. Pike of Maine, followed in opposition
to the bill, and it was further debated by
Messrs. Elliot and Alley of Massachusetts,,
and Mr.. Grinnell of Iowa. The latter while
advoeasing duty of ten cents a ponnd. and
ten per cent. advalorem on wool, and fifty
cents on shoddy, was especially severe on the
importers Of shoddy, of which twenty-seven
millions pounds were imported during the
last four years. He said the American Me-
rinos were the best sheep in the world. and
We have the bsst pastures, yet we have but
one sheep for every one hundred acres. while
England has one sheep for each acre.
"Perisy" telegraphs that the indicas lions
are that there will be combination between
the representatives Of the fshing, lumber,
coal and wool interests, which will go recon-
struct the bill rs to make it protective. If
this is done, the duty on 6sh will be one
dollar per quintal. instead of fifty cents az
proposed by Mr.. Morrill,, and the duty on
spruce lumber will be two dollars per thou
sand instead Of one dollar, while the duty
on pine lumber will be three dollars.
The bill making appropriations for the
Military Academy at West Point was passed,
bot not until General Schsnk had secured an
