Representatives at an immense cost to
the people. 1t was attempted to force
its passage through that body, under the
"previous question:" to avoid debate
and amendment. If that bill becomes
the law of the land, large majority OF
the people of the State are robbed of
their liberties and privileges--the whole
power and control of affairs are lodged
in the bands of the few These are ques-
tons which ought to interest any man
who loves republican form of govern
ment, and who desires to leave that form
of government to his posterity. We ask
the majority in the House Of Represen-
tatives to divest themselves Of all passion
and prejudice, and calmly survey the
ground to consider the Bill of Rights
and the provisions of the Constitution;
to study the principles and theory of our
Government, and to reflect that its child
rem, as well as the children of the rest of
us, must live together, and be one people,
after their fathers had passed away and
surely, after such mature reflection, not
one Of them can give his assent to the
passage of the Franchise bill.

Depraved Tasto.

AS incidents, illustrating the tunes and
their fashion at the French Imperial
Court. our readers may be glad or sorry
to know that, at the late grand fancy
hall at the Tuileries, the Count de Men
werkerke appeared and danced as Pom
thus PLATE. The Count de Cholseul-
whose mother, the Duchess OF Prashn'
was murdered by his father, the Duke
dressed as old Time, capered after the
well-known Countess de Castiglione, and
of course, failed to overtake her. But
more conspicuous than all was the young
Marchioness Of Gallifet, as the Arehan-
gel Gabriel She wore q short, GOLDEN
broidered petticoat Of white cashmere,
with clittering gold scale-armour, fitting
tight to the shape Above her long,
flowing, golden hair blazed a diamond
star, which literally seemed TO hang I'M
supported in the air. Her wings archod
over her head, and reached TO beneath
her kneos. As she danced, she brandlsil-
ed the sword of the s=changei in her
hs.:..i. and altogether, perhaps, made the
master of the rout look rs thoughtful as
he IS said to have looked.-HoD'e jour

Destitute colored People.

II is reported that destitute negoes of
all ages and both sexes crowd all the
Southern cities. At New Orleans there
are IS, 200, and 10000 are subsisting on
public charity at Washington The sup
port of these unfortunate people, and
their return, if possible, to habits of
labor, are among the greatest social
problems of the day. An appropriation
of $25 200 for the support Of the desti-
tute negroes in the neighborhood of
Washington, has just passed the Sen
ate. What is above said of Wash
ington and New Orleans is true also of
smaller towns. Not long since Yorktown
and Williamsburg, Va, were crowded
with colored fugitives, supported by the
Government, when the farmers and mill
owners in the adjoining county OF
Mathews we're offering higher wages than
white men get for the same work in Del
aware, and yet could get no help from
the towns.-PhH Ledger.

Out of Temper.

An English weekly gives the following
paragraph prominent position An
American pirate is said to have put to
sea under the Fenian colors. She is
large vessel, and her departure from New
York is known to the authorities very
well. These pirates will have about as
much chance as any other American ves-
sci manned by Yankee pirates would
have. There will be yard arm for them
all, and we trust no Exeter Hall senti-
mentalist will attempt to weep over their
destruction, and bring the captain to dis
credit if he does his duty in this case, as
Ex-Governor Eyre did in his. If the
American Government have allowed this
vessel to proceed to sea, knowing her
character, the contempt of the whole
civilized world is her due You don t
say so =?

A Reliable Report.

A Washington correspondent OF the
Jackson News furnishes the following
report of a conversation with the Presi-
dent: ra.
Mr.. Johnson believe that every one
understands my policy except those who
won't understand it.
Citizen--In all great epochs of history,
when the Executive is right, the people
are pretty sure to support him, as the ex-
ponent Of clear, well-defined policy, in
preference to the uncertain and unsatis-
factory course of Legislative body.
Mr. Johnson-Why, what does Congress
propose to do? They have been in ses-
sion four months, without having accom-
plished anything. They have no defined
policy. -.
Citizen Certainly, Mr.. President, this
is no question of privilege at all, that
topic is entirely irrelevant; it is simple
question of policy.
Mr. Johnson-No one forces them to
do anything. They are simply asked to
complete the policy most beneficial to the
whole country. Why do they not take
some decided stand. Texas is now or
ganizing her State government, if these
gentlemen believe that the South is com
posed of subjugated territories, why do
they not arrest the organization of Texas
as State. Why do they not oust her
gubernatorial officers from their chairs,
and declare Texas under Congressional
rule.
Citizen - The Inconsistency of ac-
knowledging Mr.. Lincolns State organi-
cation of Louisiana, and the present
refusal to receive her Representatives,
must strike the common sense OF the
people with peculiar force. ~
Mr. Johnson--It was the same in Ar
kansas, and more so in Tennessee, which
had organized State government even
as far back as 1862.
Citizen Il am acquainted with for
eign capitalists anxious to invest money
in the South. and only awaiting the sue
cess of your policy.
Mr.. johnson Il feel sure that the
South would soon regain her material
prosperity, if political difficulties were
fully settled
The account of this interview was
given to your correspondent by Clti-
zen and is the only correct and yerDa-
tim report that has gone to the country,
| NAV mention that the remark with rel
erence to Texas is considered a very
strong point, and the most practical
issue which the Radicals have had pre-
sented to them.

nistrihution of Troops.

By report transmitted to Congress, It
appears that on January 9th there were
l03, 936 troops in the service oftbe United
States, of whom Al, IA have since been
ordered to be mustered out of service.
This is not the whole of the United States
army, however, as on January 9th it con
sisted of 26,587 regulars; 57,59O white
volunteers, and 65,736 colored yolun. odc

Northern Periodicals. in Alabama.

Alabama does not seem anxious to
have Northern literature introduced
within her borders. Her Legislature has
passed tax law compelling all news
dealers to pay an annual license fee OF
ten dollars If, however, they sell any
newspaper or periodical published out
side the limits of the State, they are to
be taxed fifty dollars, This law is con
ceived in much the same spirit that ami
mated certain Governor of Virginia,
who declared to his great joy, that there
were no schools within his jurisdiction.
Alabamians who wish Northern journals
can eyade the law, however, by proeur-
ing tsem through the mails. The Post
Office is an institution that the Alabama
Legislature cannot tax out OF existence

| had nearly written royal scandal-ior
to tell the plain truth, the talk that now
floats through private society in London
is little less | am panied TO say that
this gossip involves no less parsonage
than Queen Victoria 1t has Tor a long
time been on peoples tongues, but 1t has
appeared at last in the newspapers. III
is said that the Queen has taken pro-
digious liking to very good-looking but
"ignoble" Scotchman named Brown,
who was formerly kind of outdoor
body servant to Prince Albert, and IN
deed bears strong resemblance 10 the
Prince. She so doats upon him that she
constantly keeps him near her, at all her
palaces, and in all her journeys to and
from them. She consults her pet on all
subjects, and takes his advice SO abso-
lutely that the rest of the royal house
hold have become very jealous of him.
The latest story is that she is going to
knight him. Marry him she cannot, for
the law of the realm forbids her to marry
one of her own subjects. 1t is very disa-
greeable, nay, it is worse than disagree
able, to mention these things OF one VINO,
as wife and mother and Queen, has so
high a place in the reverence OF the
world
Ihaye refrained from speaking of these
stories while they were merely talked OF
in private, but now they have become so
notorious, and are so positively men
toned in English papers, that l can no
longer regard them as empty tales.
