| NEW YORK, April 30.-Tbe Tribune's
| special says: After four months of the most
| searching investigation and dispassionate
| discussion among the members in Congress,
| it is believed the plan will meet with the
| entire sanction of all shades of opinion and
sentiment. Thus far no man among the
Union members of either house has ex-
| pressed any dissent from this plan. The
| friends Of the President gave assurance to-
| night that II Congress carries out the scheme
in good faith it Will receive his cooperation.
Neither Of his organs here, it is stated, will
commit themselves upon the proposition.
Tomorrow Thad. Stevens avows his readi-
ness to acquiesce in the measure The
Northumberland expresses his approval,
and no measure of Congress has challeneed
such universal assent in all questions. It
is not anticipated that any material amend
ments VIII be carried, and the States will
be invoked to eonvoke their Legislatures 90
as TO SC lure the adoption by loyal States,
thus Stimulating concurrent action by
States lately in rebellion.
The Worlds special says a member of the
Reconstruction Committee called on the
President yesterday evening and presented
him with a copy Of the plan they had adop- |
ted, and asked him what he thought of it. |
He said he would let them know after he |
had carefully examined it. He said he |
thought there was cons derable backing |
down from all their former positions.
The Times special says: 1t is known that |
Senator johnson and Representatives Grider |
and Rogers only voted in the negative; the |
Alternatives must be Senators Fessenden, |
Grimes, Harris, Howard and Williams, and |
Representatives Strong, Washburne, of Illi- |
nOis, Morrill,, Bingham, Conklin, Boutwell,, |
and Blow. Many members assert their be- |
lief that the entire proposition can be car
ried through both houses by two-thirds |
vote "' "I '"'-t
The Herald's special says: 1t is every
where looked upon as a very diminutive |
animal to repaythe long labor of the noun |
tain. Common rumor attributes its pro-
duction TO Mr.. Roscoe Conklin, from the |
Oneida District, New York, in conjunction |
with the massive intellect of CheValier For |
ney. Both wings OF the party are out of
humor at the result of the extensive re-
searches and elaborate investigations of this |
wonderful inquisition. Each of the antag- |
onistie parties claim that nothing is accom- |
plished by the scheme suggested, but as il |
don't exactly controvers their opinions, and |
is the nearest to their peculiar ideas that |
can be obtained, they subscribe to it.
EEw YoRK, April 30.-The Tribune says |
of the plan of reconstruction agreed upon /
by the Committee: The exultation of pro-
E6DclS uN6I the lndDillI1 ot tao JOiub Gull
mittee of fifteen to agree has proved |
Il-timed. The committee have agreed
on a proposition which will to-day be
reported to both houses, and which
have received the vote-l2 to 3-of all but
the Copperhead members. We may, there
fore, accept and consider it as the Union
party's plan of reconstruction. Our own |
preference for q much shorter and simpler
plan is well known. Universal amnesty,
impartial sutrage-such are It's conditions,
and the whole OF them.
The Herald says: The plan is ingeniously
contrived. 1t considerably milder than
anything heretofore emanatiDg from the
and nearer the policy and views
of President johnson. 1t may be unnecessary
in some things, supeTfGOus in others, and
unfair in its continued exclusion of the
Southern States after having, on their part,
fulf ed the condition of the administration
charged with discretionary powers over the
whole subject, but we have only to await
now the issue before the Houses.
The Times says: The scheme would seem
sweeping enough to satisfy the most exact
ing Radical. It could hardly be more
weeping indeed, unless it provided for the
wholesale -confscation and determination
or Punishment of the Southern people. As
a plau of Pacifcation and reconstruction
the whole thing is worse than q burlesque.
1t might be styled farce were the country
not in the midst of very serious drama.
Its proper designation would be plan to
proiong indefinitely the exclusion Of the
south, and compromise by imposing condi-
tions to which the Southern people never
viii submit.
The World says: The purpose of the
scheme would not have been more apparent |
had it been labelled by the Committee an /
IL Il, I =
from voting in the next Presidential cleo
tion. So transparent is its intent that it
fails entirely in respects to its secondary
object-of putting the abuse of exclusion on
.he South itself. It is not an honest pro
position. It is not offered with any expec-
.ation of its acceptance, but witha delibe- +
rate design that it shall be rejected.
