From the New York Evening Post.l
Testimonial TO Lieutenant Gener
Grant.

Prominent citizens Of New York have Just
made magnificent present to General Grant
as token of their appreciation Of his M
tiOnal services.
TIE gift was nominally a hundred thou.
sand dollars, but it amounted 10 one hun.
dred and i've thousand, and was conveyed
to General Grant without ceremony, by
means Of a letter containing q list Of the
subscriptions and an account Of the expen-
diture of part Of the money for his benefit.
The amount Of cash placed in his hands
was $4,000, and there were $55. 900 in
United States Ssven-thirty bonds.
1t will not be improper to state that the
movement, which resulted so creditably to
our citizens, arose from proposition to can.
eel O mortgage which General Grant and
Mrs. Grant executed on their house in Wash
ington.
1t was the property that previously be
longed to Stephen A. Douglas. The fact
that the mortgage was given came incident
ally to the knowledge Of the originators Of
this plan; and when the subject was men
toned the object was so heartily approved
that more than the sum required was almost
Immediately offered.
General Butterfield made the collections
and the amount soon became moro than q
hundred thousand dollars. The mortgage
bond was cancelled, and General Grant hai
the remainder Of the contributions-nearly
thrice the sum it was at first proposed L
raise. The following is the correspondence

Miss, Clarion. In an article, recommend
ing the education Of the negroes by the
Southern people, 1t says:
Nor will it do to despise the negro. He
was not despicable as an enemy when slave;
he would be very formidable one now, were
be without any one TO support him In hostility.
The gallant Col. Griffith, of Arkansas, said
that as hard fighting as he had encountered
from the Federal troops was from negro
regiments. Give these men the material aid
and oountenaDce Of the Radicals, who are
now counting them, and we will find them

THIRTY NINTH CONGRESS
First Session.


Mr. Mckee, of Kentucky, caused to be
read an amendment 10 the Constitution pro-
viding that no conspirators or men who have
been or may hereafter BIO engaged in rebel
lion shall ever hold public Office under the
authority of tho United States.
He proceeded 10 advocate this proposition,
and in the course Of his remarks said We need
to reconstruct the Government, not that II
has been destroyed, but that 1t may be con.
formed to the changed condition of affairs.
Men say that now the conflict Is over, the
people Of the South are entitled to all the
rights under the Constitution, as If during
the last four years they had moved on smooth.
ly in the path of obedience to law.
Mr.. Loan, Of Missouri, reviewed the re-
bellion, saying that those who took part In
IL now endeavored TO secure by fraud what
they failed to accomplish in the field. II
the representatives ofthe people failed to do
their duty in making sure tho blessings
which we enjoy they would be remembore d
with soorn. lie cOmbatted the doctrine that
the lately rebellious States can Of themselves
return to their relations TO the Federal Gov
eminent. lie would recognise the return OF
the Southern States when the inhabitants
give some evidence Of their hatred of treason
and love of Union and republican institutions.
Mr.. Thornton, Of Illinois, opposed the
views which were advanced by those who
preceded him, and denied that the Southern
States were out Of the Union, while he OK
pressed himself In favor Of admitting the
Representative from that section who can
show their loyalty
