FRRRDxRs's AYPArRs IN NORTH CARo.
LINA.-The Assistant Commissioner Of th,
Frcedmen's Bureau in North Carolina sayi
in his report to the Commissioner con.
corning the repeal Of the Freedmen's disa-
bili.y acts by the Assembly Of that State
Taking into consideration the repeal by
the late late Convention and Assemoly Of
all disabling acts regarding the freedmen,
and Of all laws unequalIy affecting whites
and blacks, and the fact that, 40 the laws
now stand, the white man and black man
are situated alike before the courts, !
deem it advisable to turn over to the civil
authorities Of the State all cases heretofore
adjudicated BY the officers OF the Bureau,
with perhaps the single exception OF claims
made by freedmen for the wages OF labor
performed. reserving to the Bureau the
right to resume jurisdiction over any and
ali cases which the civil courts show a
disinclination to try fairly, and according
to the laws as they are now in force.

that the Government itself has $50 OOO,-
900 of currency on hand. II these sums
were TO be unlocked and go into circula-
tion In any form in whole or In part, as
Is likely to be the case, If the project of
the gentleman from Pennsylvania shall
succeed, that is TO say, II we should
leave the Secretary Of the Treasury sim
ply with the power he now has, the re-
suit will be that the currency will be
practically Increased TO some extent
Otherwise the deposits would be most
likely absorbed by being exchanged Tor
Government bonds.
Mr.. Speaker, let me say one word
more. There has never been any coun-
try that could export grain, manuiac-
tpres, or anything else, with an inflated
currency, except 10 extraordinary cases,
IL did occur at the time Of the fam
Inc In Ireland. 1t did occur at the time
of the Crimean war, but these were eX-
ceptional instances. The manufacturers
of this country-l am sorry TO disagree
on this point with some gentlemen here
and elsewheTe-the manufacturers OF
the country, as well as the rest of the
country, have an interest in having this
question settled, so that they can make
their contracts at least for six months
ahead.
II the policy OF the Secretary Of the
Treasury can be steadily pursued we
shall avoid frequent changes in the mon
ey market, the baue of all business
transactions, and every one will know
how to make arrangements accordingly.
1t cannot be for the interest ofany class
of our people to keep our currency be-
| low the value of other nations with
whom we trade.
The gentleman from Pennsylvania has
characterized this as an enormous bill, "
because, as he claims, it will confer ex-
travagant powers upon the Secretary of
the Treasury. Why, sir he has now all
the power so much dreaded by the gen
tleman from Pennsy wanna, and if he
were demon, minister of evil no
! doubt he could exercise the power to the
injury of the country. But does any
; body believe that he would willingly,
with malice aforethought, bring about q
| commercial revulsion in the country,
PROSTATE our business, bankrupt the
| Treasury, sink the credit of the Govern
ment, and destroy his own reputation
must say that, in my judgment, these
are idle fears and unworthy to be lodged
in the brain Of any man. | hope there
is enough of good sense and patriotism
in the House to sustain the bill. If we
do, cannot think we shall have any
reason to regret it. do fear we may
have much for regret if the House I'M
dertakes to manage the finances of the
country. For one, l prefer that the
responsibility shall be with the execu.
! tive department.

VETo OF THE CIVIL RIGHTs BILL
The Presidents veto of the Civil Rights
bill is published in the city papers, but
the crowded state of our columns pre-
cludes any extended notice of it to-day.
The President finds little in the bill to
approve. He thinks it unnecessary, as
the laws of the States and of the United
States now protect all residents, wheth-
er citizens or not, nor is it necessary
that residents should be declared citi-
zens in order to be entitled to protec-
ton.
He also objects to making the children
of Chinese, gipsies, taxed Indians and
Others citizens, merely because of birth
on the soil, as the bill provides. As to
the slaves, he thinks they need period
of probation before they will be capable
of all the privileges of citizens, and that
to give them these privileges at once is
to discriminate against large numbers Of
intelligent foreigners coming to make
homes among us.
To the principal provisions of the bill,
giving powers to federal commissioners
and judges to punish State judges and
other State officers for enforcing State
laws against the provisions of this bill,
and the new machinery originated by it,
modelled after that of the fugitive slave
law, he finds constitutional objection,
and thinks them in violation of the
rights of the States.

A DEMOCRATIC ORGAN ON CAPTURING
THE PREsIDRNT.-The New York Leader
in q recent number points out the alb
surdity of the Democratic billing and
cooling with the President. 1t argues
that it should be beneath the Democratic
party to call upon the President to sup
port them, and that it would be a fatal
mistake for both if he were to comply
with the call. The Leader says:
Besides all this, what if we should
succeed in capturing the President ?
After we had taken him in, what would
we do with him Could the Democrats
pass one of his measures through Con-
gress 2 Could they sustain one of his
vetoes Gould they give him money to
carry on the government Could they
even pay him his salary if the Republi-
can majority objected? The Republi-
cans are strong enough as it is; but ii
we should drive them into one united
party by seducing the President, they
would be invincible. The people who
dislike deserters could not be relied upon
to sustain us, and they would not have
a chance to elect another set of Con-
gressmen in time to relieve us."

PRRhIUM on BARIEs.-We are now
certain that the sour old bachelors in
Congress do not control everything, for
the ways and means committee have
agreed that the income tax shall stand
as it ia, with this exception, that fifty
dollars shall be added TO the $500 ex-
empted from tax for every child OF the
family up to fifteen in number. This is
reasonable and liberal, and what a sug-
gestion for increase OF population is EN-
bodied in extending the number to If
teen. That sounds like the good old
times, when a family meant something
more than one or two petted and spoiled
children. To be sure fifty dollars a year
is but a meager allowance for q baby Of
any size in these times, but il is some.
thing to have the fact considered by
those who levy the taxes, that a man
who obeys the original law of the race,
and does his share toward replenishing
the earth, necessarily uses up more OF
his income than the childless, and uses
it, too, for the benefit of the country,
whose wealth consists in population.
Family men will take courage, and
thank the congressman who show this
consideration at the same time of their
services and their necessities. We may
expect to see an increase of the baby
crop at once.-Sp, inQfeld Republican.

Proceedings of the Rutland County
Bar On the death of Senator Foot.

On the receipt Of the intelligence of
the death of Senator Foot in court yes
terday, Edwin Edgerton, ESQ, in a few
appropriate remarks, announced the sad
event, and moved that the court adjourn,
as mark Of respect to the deceased.
His Honor Judge Kellogg, in comply
ing with the motion, made the follow.
ing remarks:
We share with full hearts in the feel
ing which has prompted the motion for
the adjournment of the court, made by
the gentlemen of the Bar. The.death of
our distinguished Senator is National
loss, but here, in the town in which he
resided, and among the friends and pro
tesslOnal associates with whom he was
so long connected, it is felt as a shock
which brings to each of US the sense of
personal bereavement and sorrow.
Senator Foot, during his whole profes,
sional and public life, eDjoved in the
largest measure the respect and esteem
of the people of his town, county, and
state, and was called TO high spd
merlted hOnOrs. We all recognize how
well and wCrthilv he fulfilled every pub.
lie duty. The state conferred upon him
the rare honor of third election as its
Senator, his last election to that office by
the unanimous vote Of one branch a.
the legislature, and by vote nearly
unanimous in the other branch. was the
highest distinction which the State
could confer upOn its worthless. citizen.
In this moment of our loss, we grateful.
ly remember his largeness Of heart. his
generous nature, his warm and uDsel1Sh
devotion to his friends. and the energy
and firmness with which be adhered t.
and pursued, every conviction Of duty.
We share In the general sorrow which
perv8t-S all hearts in this community
anil will cordially Mute with the gentle
nen Of the Bar in any fitting expression
OF respect ~ the memsry OF our lac
associate and friend
The court was then adjourned until

TuE NEW POSTAL BLL.--The House
has passed the new Postal bill, with
very important amendments. The sec
ton authorizing the Postmaster Gen
eral 10 sell stamped envelopes at the
value of the stamps impressed thereon
was struck out--a most just settlement
of that question. Sections authorizing
the Postmaster, General TO convey the
foreign mails by sailing vessels, and to
repeal existing laws for the publication
Of lists OF letters uncalled for, were also
struck out. Several other objection
able sections met the same fate and
the bill as passed has liberal features
that are a decided Improvement on the
niggsrdly policy of the old law, Pre-
paid letters are by this bill to be for
warded from one Office TO another, and
dead letters to be returned without
charge and money orders may be is

CLEMENT c. CLAY.--The Boston Ad-
vertiser publishes an intercepted letter,
in possession of the State Department
at Washington, identified as being writ
ten by Clement C.Clay, under the date OF
St. GATHERINGS, G. W., November, 1864
The letter shows the completely of the
writer in the robbing and numbering
raids from Canada into the United
States. 1t is understood to furnish the
real grounds for Clay's prolonged i'm
prisonment at Fortress Monroe. The
letter is addressed to J. P. Benjamin,
and urges the official sanction by the
rebel government of the acts of Lieut.
Bennett and H. Loungaud, the other
desperate, who made the raid on st.
Adams in order to prevent their being
given up under the Extradition Treaty,
Clay justides their acts as being legit-
innate warfare.
