A Thrilling Scene.

The Washington correspondent of the Chicago Times gives the following acconnt ol
 the proceedings of Congress the other day
 "A remarkable scene took place in the
 House of Representatives yesterday afternoon.
 Mir. Rousseau, of Kentucky, was making an
 eloquent speech against the Freedmen's Blu
 reau bill, when he was interrupted by Nr. De
 lano, of Ohio This gentleman, Republican
 member electrified the House by stating that
 he held the Southern States to be as much States of the Union as any other States, and that he was ready at this moment to vote for the members from Tennessee and Arkansas. In au instant every Democratic member ap- plauded this sentiment by vigorous clapping of hands, while the republican members with one or two exceptions, sat still petritied with astonishment at the audacious declaration. Alluding to the precious plea set forth during the whole war, that 1t was a war for the res toration of the Union, and to the repudiation of that principle by the Republicans now, and to the atrocious sentiment ayowed by Thad deus Stevens, "that he was determined to keeI the Southern States out of the Union unti they had adopted such measures as would SC cure the permanent ascendency of the Repub lican party'-M RousSeau declared Mat6 d. had h-aorn thqt such araS 10 De the purpose dnc object ofthe ,car, he never ,could hdue drawn ht sword on the side of the North, against the South

TEE s'EVERLASTENG NEGRO,"

The more "right and privileges" yon accord to tho peoroes in their present ignorant condl- t;on. the less industrious will they become The higher they are elevated in the scale of society by the politicians, the less Will they work.
 This proposition is perfectly obvious ana well known to all intelligent Southcrners but Northern men will have to come down here and live among the negroes awhile, and em- ploy them as laborers, before they can be brought to believe it.
 There can be no true elevation of the negro' unless, by education and industry and good conduct. he asorks out that elecdtion htmseJ, This ought to be perfectly well known-a self-evident proposition indeed-to such pro- fessed thinkers and philosophers as those wonderfully able men, SUMNER and WENDELL PHILLIPS and HORACE GREELEY; but, warped from the true course by party necessity or oy the supposed requirements of policy ln- voving an insulting ascription of bad faith and dishonest purposes to the Southern people they refuse to recognize the truth of prlncl- ple old as humanity itself, and insist on mak- ing the negro citizen, legislator and ru!er-the full political and social equal of the white man-before he has become MAN : None so blind as those who won't see
 While we admit, that, by education and conduct the negro may, after awhile, succeed in effecting his own elevation, yet, such is the native deceit. untruthfulness and feroclty ei his average character, the thing must remain a problem until demonstrated by actual experi- ment. One thing we believe to be as certain as anything can be, that has never been tested Tue problem can never be solved in faJOr o1 the negroes. so long they remain mixed uI with the whites in the South, for the simple reason that the two races cannot now-perhap' aeuer live together in peace on terms of per feet equality.
 One would have supposed, few years ago that. with the abolition of slavery in the South the agitation of the eternal ''negro question would have instantly ceased. But no,-th' Abolitonists believe that more capital is to b' made out of it yet; and so, the 'eterhal' conflict goes on. Where, or how, it is to end, If ever, God only knows. Let us hope that the President, backed by the Conservatives oi the country, will find speedier solution of the difficulty than the Radicals look for or desire Memphis Argus.
Des Arc citizen., 1866-02-28

CrRRpScY FOR THE SoUTH.-We ob- serve that the Commissioner of Currency has recommended that the amount ot Ma tional Banks issue be extended one hun dred million, for the purpose of supplying the South with currency. If this eXten- sion would make the Southern States any richer. or add to tie enterprise, industry and prodcuts of this section, in the meas ure that is contemplated it would certainly be desirable thing for the South, which needs capital. But we cannot see how It will put one dollar in the pockets of the people, more than they have now. and must, therefore, regard it as ''weak in vention' for the expansion of currency and the enlargement of issues by the banks.
 The South certainly needs capital, but can only get it by furnishing q'"d pro quo for the same The only effect that an enlargement of the circulating medium can have, without giving us better chances than we now have to dig it out of the soil, or make it by mechanical or manufactur- ing industry, will be to deprcciate curren- cy, instead of adding greater wealth to the country.
 What the South needs is a chance to work in peace, and to open up her vast resources and energies. Under govern ment which shall be paternally admins tered, as is contemplated by the Presidents policy and which shall guarantee equal protection to all, with the rights of all se- cured by impartial judicial tribunals, the South will begin to prosper, and her labor and enterprise will soon bring within her bounds all the money capital she shall need to carry on business and supply her ne- cessities Instead of currency, give us commonlaw. Instead of banks and bu- reaus, give us the Constitution. Instead of an increase of greenbacks, give us gentle peace and beautiful harmony.

fragrant wales and sunlit hills, and the ech- oes borne upon every breeze answer, war is curse. The fairest, the loveliest land athwart which the sun has ever thrown his dazzling light, or over which gentle zephyrs ever bore fragrant breezes to fan the brow or kiss the check of innocence, and beauty and love, these too send up the melancholy echo, war is curse. The loved ones of the slain repeatit, the graves of the broken hearted repeat it, and the echo borne full upon the blast crosses the confines of time and reverberates, war IS a curse, and methinks the half hours silence at the judgment day is followed by the full toned blast of the archangePs silver trump, war is a curse, and the sound caught up by the lost spirits as downward they sink in neither Erebus, with the hoarse dismal echo along the ebony walls of He'll war is curse.

 Thus in the prime of life has fallen another victim to the stern destroyer. For four years a soldier in the Confederate army; his deport- mont was such as to win the admiration of all. When peace came no heart leaped higher than his-no pulse beat more proudly. Earnestly he sat to work, buoyant with hope, but death came and bore him hence. He IS gone; no more to take part in the hustle of life. Let us hope that his is the sleep of the reign'eouS' and that to him death has but borne the com mission of our Heavenly Father "come up higher"

CAUSES CT SUDDEN DEArH,-Very few of the suden deaths which are said to arise from diseases of the heart do really arise from that cause. To ascertain the real origin of sudden deaths, an experiment has been tried in Europe, and reported to a scientific congress at Stras- bourg. Sixtysix cases of sudden death were made the subject of thorough post mortem examination; in these cases only two were found who had died from disease of the heart Nine out of the sixty-six had died from apo plexy, while there were forty six cases of con geston of the lungs-that is, the lungs were so full of blood they could not work, there not being room enough for sufficient quantity of air to enter to support life The causes that produce congestion of the lungs are cold feet, tight clothing, costive bowels, sitting still until chilled after being warmed with la bor or rapid walk, going too suddenly from . close, heated room into the cold air, especially after speaking, and sudden depressing news operating on the blood. These causes of sud den death being known, an avoidance of them may serve to lengthen many valuable lives, which would otherwise be lost under the yer dict of heart complaint. The disease is sup posed to be inevitable; hence many may not take the pains they would to avoid sudden death if they knew it lay in their power.
