The Freedmen's Bureau.

While the bill on this subject was pending IN
the United States Senate, Mr.. HENDRICKS, OF
Indiana. subjected it to a very thorough and
searching analysis, and exposed, with great
| force. its pernicious effects, but all in yain.-
True, Mr.. FESsENDEN, who seemst to have more
candOr than any of his New England colleagues,
admitted that the argument of Mr.. H., based
upon the lack of constitutional power in the
government to transform itself into an eleem-
oSynary establishment, had made an impress
sion on his mind. Mr.. HENDRICES cOntended
that private aud personal beneticence lay al
together without the authority of the Govern
ment, and that the practice would amount to a
revolution in its character and principles. Ii
Government may purchase and present lands
or other property to one individual. or 10 one
| class, ON account Of sympathy with ms destitu-
| ton and a desire 20 help him on, what is to
hinder il nom setting up the profession of a
charitable corporation, and d~eyoting its time
and revenues to the distribution Of aims and
bounties where the party which happens for
the time to administer it think fit
The Boston Post dispOses Of the measure by
saving that it is an uncalled for enlargement of
powers and jurisdiction which the trainers and
friends of the bill to be amended would not
listen to, only a year ago that it sets up an
irresponsible dynasty, from which there Is no
appeal to the Judicial Department of the Gov
eminent, within a republic that it throws
down and tramples on the statutes which the
States have always made for themselves, and
have the sole right to make; that it throws
military protection around individuals in a time
of peace, and in States that were never de-
clared to be in rebellion, in defiance of all Illegal
process whatever, and that it entails on the
country an expense of not less than twenty
millions of dollars yearly, out of which CON-
missary stores, aSylums and transportation are
furnished to freedmen and refugees, while a
fresh army of partisan dependents is billeted
upon the various districts, counties and COM
munities of the country, to corrupt the popular
sentiment when they find that easiest, and to
defy it in the last resort at any rate.
As a sample Of reckless and destructive leg
~islation, altogether outside of the fundamental
authority to legislate at all, it excites many a
fo~rebOding for the future. If the limitations of
the Constitution are to be openly disregarded,
and in a spirit, too, of contempt, by those who
are sent to enact avs under it for the estab-
lishment ofjustice, and not for the establish
ment ola political party, reason will have to
suspend its offices in Congress, and authority
everywhere yield a dumb subserviency to

JUDICIAL CONTEST IN THE 10Th CIRcUIT.-
II seems from the Berkeley and Jefferson pa
ners that the contested election for Judge OF
the 10Th Judicial Circuit between Ephraim b.
Hall, late Attorney General, and John W.
Kennedy, will soon he brought, for decision,
before the special court provided by law. Mr..
Hall, it is understood, says the Wheeling M
teligeRcer, has selected Judge Caldwell, of this
circuit, and Mr.. Kennedy has selected Dance
Lamb, as their respective appointees OF inc
court. 1t will devolvc upon the Governor, I'M
der the law, to choose q third member oi the
court. We have not yet heard OF the eNecu-
tive selection.
We understand that Mr.. Hall has engaged
Mr.. Faulkner As his counsel. What other
counsel have been employed, we have not
learned. The case viii present some highly
entertaining and important questions of law for
the decision of the court.

The White House

TIL interview granted by the President to
the negro delegation, headed by FRED. Dot
GLASS, is the only instance We are aware oil III
which a delegation thus honored has had the
bad manners and the %impudence to interrupt
the President in his remarks, to contest his PO-
SitiOns and to endeavor to transform the Exc
cutive Mansion into an arena for disputatiOn
and discussion. The insolent manner in which
this delegation bearded the President in his
mansion, questioned his views, pressed their
demands for universal suffrage, and ended by
saying that they would appeal to the people,
affords some indication Of what would be the
measure of their offensive e%tfrontry if invested
with suffrage. These delegations are some OF
the instrumentalities employed by the Radical
leaders to harraSs the President. In this. in
stance they got a slap in the face that they will
not soon forget.
The interview granted the white delegation
from the new territory Of Montana, was of a
very different character. The views expressed
and the announcements made by the President,
on that occasion, were highly important and
interesting. He declared his purpose to adhere
to the doctrines and principles contained in his
message, and TO act strictly under the conStitu-
ton. lie said it was impossible for him to turn
or take a different direction from that he has
been steadily pursuing-that his object is to
restore the Union in its integrity, and to re-
instate the Southern States in their former re-
latiOns. This, he said, was his mission, aud by
the help Of the Almighty he is determined to
execute it. To aSpirants to the Presidential
successorship, he administered q fitting rebuke,
showing plainly that he hasa correct understand
ing of the motives thatinfuence their opposition
to his restoration policy. His declaration that he
will lend his countenance to no combinations
with reference to any future Presidential can
didacy, is one that will please the people as
much as it will d~iSplease the factions now
struggling for supremacy; aud the aSpirants
who are scheming and agitating for the attain
ment of Presidential honorS. The President
evidently means that he intends to be Presi-
dent, and will not be dictated to either by in
dividuals, or combinations of individuals, and
that he will net allow the Presidential functions
to be controlled or modified by any cOnSidera-
tions or arrangements having reference to the
succession. Occupying this elevated position,
the President is placed above the reach Of
those selfish influences that usually attach to
those occupying his great office, as also above
the envy and jealousy ofthoSe, and their name
is legion, who court his place. Freed from these
TO act with perfect rectitude and independ-
ence. Such a course will eudear him to the
people, and make him immortal in history.

CASE OF HoMCDE.-0n Friday last, James
Thomas was shot and killed by James Milan, in
the neighborhOod known as Mountain Hill, some
six or eight miles from Danville. These men were
of rather reckless character and had been at dag
gers draw for several months. Last Fall they got
into a fight and Thomas shot Milan, wOunding
him so severely as to cripple him for a while. On
this. the first meeting afterwards, the combat was
resumed which resulted as we have stated. There
arr various reports as to the provocation for the
deed. some ayerring that Milan was pursued by
Thomas with an axe and that he finally turned and
shot him, while Others say that he was on watch
for him for the purpose of taking his life. When

was evident that the axe was used after he was shot

MURDER IN NORTH CAROLISA.-The Norfolk Day
Book, of Wednesday afternoon, give Ties following
account of the killing of three men in Gates county,
North Carolina:
On last Saturday night, in n dark corner of Gates
county, North Carolina, called Scratch Hall, some
six or eight men, dressed in the uniform of Federal
soldiers, were seen riding quietly along the road, a
little after dark, going in the direction of. the house
of a man named Tyiee, a well known desperate
character of that section.
Arriving at the house, calls were made upon Tylee
to come out and surrender, or he would otherwise
be killed. He refused to capitulate, and the battle
opened. 1t began with alternating fortune for some
time, but ut length all opposition from the parties in
the house of Tylcc ceased and upon the attacking
party entering the fortress, they found the dead body
of Tylee, and also those of two negro men who were
in the house with him, and who, it is presumed,
aided in the defence.
Tylee was Il terror TO that entire portion of the
county of Gates, in which he lived, and whilst, OF
course, the citizens of that orderly county, cannot
countcnancc murder, in any shape or form, yet the
feeling of relief and security, since his death, per.
vadcs all classes,
1t is not for a moment supposed that the perpe-
traitors of this deed were Federal soldiers. During
the late struggle, Tylee had waged 4 desperate war
upon many Of his neighbOrs, and their vengeance
has at length overtakcn him.
