Reconstruction Committee,

\ special dispatch from Washington
to the Chicago Tribun6 of the joint COM
mittce of Congress on reconstruction:
The Reconstruction Committee is now
fully organized, and has begun its la
bors. The members found, after thor
ough inquiry respecting matters, that it
would he impossible for the whole COM
mittec to make the required eXamina-
ton of all the States lately i'm rebellion,
and it has therefore been divided into
four subcommittee. Each of these
subcommittee has Senator at its head,
.sst-- L.. -
the Necessary examination in regard TO
two Or three States, and il is understood
that their reports will be made directly
to the two houses of Congress, while the
Committee as a whole, will make a sep
arate report with recommendations
Two of the subcommittee have begun
the examination of witnesses. Several
gentlemen who have made Journeys Of
greater or less length during the last six
months in the South have already been
summoned to appear before one or an
other OF the subcommittee, and Others
have been directed to hold themselves
in readiness to appear when wanted.
There are indications that the case of
Tennessee will be first reported upon,
but there is no probability of an imme-
diate report, even in respect to that
State. With respect to the other States
il need only be said that the examina-
ton will be thorough enough to keep
them on probation for some months to
come. The witnesses called before the
subcommittee viii not be wholly North
Crners or temporary residents OF the
South. but will embrace persons of all
classes thoroughly identified with States
in hich they cover. This rule will be
followed even in respect To a State so far
away as Texas, from which witnesses
will be summoned at an early day.

representative kass0n.

Mr. Kasson, Of the Fifth District, is
one OF the few Republicans in Congress,
and the only Iowa member, who did
pat saslSS t he fullest effort to secure the
of suffrage in the District of Columbia
We rcgmt very much, for his own sake
and the credit Of the State he represents
that he should have pcrsistcntly stood
out against the measure. Had Mr.. kas.
son represented a district in Southern
Illinois, or hailed from Five Points,
New York, his course would have been
natural enough; but representing the
radical Fifth District of Iowa, a he has
the honor OF doing, we can explain his
course on no satisfactory hypothesis.
g. 1t is due to him, however, to state
that he repeatedly declared his willing
ness to favor negro suffrage, provided
proper qualifications should be imposed.
Such as could read and write, and had
borne arms in defense of the Union. he
was willing should be allowed the cleo
tive franchise. Nevertheless, his speech
e. and general policy tended to create
prejudice against color, to induce partial
legislation, and therefore to defeat alto
gcther the objects contemplated in the
bill under consideration; and we cannot
but conclude that he would have suffer-
cd no Srieyous disappointment had the
measure been killed in the House. and
all hope THAT the present Congress would
take step toward securing impartial
sufrage destroyed.
We deeply regret that Mr.. kasson did
not, boldly and manfully, like his col
leagues, stand up for manhood suffrage.
1.-The deemed qualifications essential to
the purity and intelligence of the ballot
box, he should have urged those quail
hcations against the whites as strongly
as he urged them against the blacks.
We are bound to believe however.
that Mr.. kasson was honest in the opin-
ions he expressed, and he surely was
entitled to advocate his views with all
the force of mind he could bring to bear.
He has not, however, so far is We have
observed, been endorsed by a single
Iowa paper, aud cur Judgment il that
sie failed to represent the political feel
Ing Of ninetenths OF the electors by
whose ballots he occupies his honorable
position.

of the lamented Maj. Gen. Mcpherson.
The faces OF the troops were already
turned homeward, and but little could
then be done in raising money. Many,
however, have since sent ia their con-
tributions, and it is our desire that the
remaining members of that army, who
feel willing TO assist in SO noble an OBJ
iect, should send i'm their voluntary sub
scriptionS to Gen. \. Eickcnlo Hooper,
Cincinnati, Ohio. Ii is desired thst ak

AS basis for contributing | would
state that private soldiers pay one dol

It is requested that all newspapers in

Army of the Tennessee was recruited
should publish this notice.

Mr.. EDITOR: Please publish the ac-
campaigning letter. 1t explains itself,
although a few words of acknowledge
ment may not be out of place. The
liberal donors may he assured that it is
much more valuable than the amount
would imply. The Home absolutely
needs four or five cows, and it has no
other means to procure them than to
depend upon the public liberality. This,
together with Sll so contributed by sew
eral of our German citizens through the
solicitation of Mr.. Mehl, merchant at
the corner of eth and White streets, will
secure one of them. Will not others of
our merchants and business men go and
do likewise? Cannot they also club to-
gether and raise funds to purchase an
other of the requisite number? | should
also state that the Home is especially
indebted to NJ. kingman, Esq, Presi-
dent of the Dubuque Produce Ex-
change" whose hand rs well as heart is
always open to every good work, for the
liberal contribution.
