In bis remarks Tuesday evening, Colonel
Case referred to Southern and coppefhead
vitupera.ion Of the Eastern States. II was
not always so. Gen. Charles Cotesvorth
Pinckney, of South Carolina, bore this tess
timony 70 the part taken BY New England in
the Revolutionary war, in his speech in the
South Carolina Legislature in favor Of the
adoption of the Federal Constitution: .tWho
have been the greatest sufferers in the Union
by our obtaining our independence ans
wer, the Eastern States. They have lost ev>
erything but their country and their free
DOM In th.t same body Robert Barr well,
whose name la,terly has been borne by rebels
who, like our Copperhead Democracy, con
tinually arraien New England for its narrow>
ness. its setshness, and its prejudice, said,
in reply TO the conservative tory, Lowudes:
.. In the first instance. it appeared to him
g that the gentleman had established, ss the
"a basis Of his objections, that the Eastern
" States entertained the greatest aversion to
90 those which lay to the south, and would

them. THIS idea he considered as founded
q in prejudice, and unsupported by facts.
" To prove this assertion, Mr.. B. requested
gentlemen for moment to turn their at
'stention TO the transactions which ihe late
. war had engraved upon the memory Of ev-
" cry man. When the arm of oppression lay
{. heavy on us, were they not the FIRST 10
" arouse themselves When the sword OF
q civil discord was drawn, we're they not the
q first in the field? When war deluged their
plains with blood, what was their language?
g Did they demand the Southern troops to

" when war hoated to the South, did they
q withhold their assistance? The answer

ian nationality, which at present and
in all time win never be regarded as
realized so long as Austrian colors
wave from the turrcts of st. Marks.
Venice must be redeemed from Aus
trian rule, is the cry which in every
part of Italy will rally thousands OF
volunteers and produce the most pro-
found and violet emotions and war
like tendencies. The King of italy,
who is sort of popular monarch,
responds promptly to the popular de-
mand and feeling, and is no doubt
eager to renew the controversy with
his old foe, ender such favorable aus
pieces. So it is a very sensible and
practical arrangement between Bis
mark and Victor Enamel, that the
latter should drive Austria from her
principal port on the Adriatic, whilst
Prussia arrays powerful army on
the northern line of Austria, in Or
der that she may induce or coerce
Austria into concession of her right
to absorb the Duchies. And this is
really the practical issue in all these
formidable preparations, and it is
one which we fear can only be solved
by one or two great arbiters-Louis
Napoleon or War. The most recent
utterance Of the former great power
betrayS an interest in the controver-
sy which ought to silence the dis
putes and pacity the dispositions of
the German people. The significant

WASHINGTON, June 4.-The Post
master General has sent commune
cation to the Senate against the pro
posed plan Of united telegraph lines
with the postal system. He says
Gas the result Of my investigation !
do not think it wise for the Govern
ment to inaugurate the proposed sys-
TEN, not only because of its doubt
ful financial success, but of its ques-
tionable feasibility to alter our pos
tai system"
The fourth and fifth sections of the
reconstruction resolution passed by a
two thirds vote. The radicals voted
down several amendments of the
conservatives.
Mr.. Hendricks said the proceed
ings were extremely unwise and I'M
just, and the people would never en-
dorse them.
Mr.. Cowan said the caucus propo-
sition was for the political necessities
of the party, and not for the inter-
est of the country.
The Senate adjourned without final
action.
HOUSE.-The resolution of Mr..
Williams calling on the President to
inform the House whether any Gov
eminent employees in the South have
i'll any way conferred public honors
to Confederate living or dead; also
whether the privilege of honoring
the graves of Union soldiers has
been in any way denied by the au-
thorities with the acqaiescence of of
ticers of the Government, was taken
up. The resolution was pressed
through under the gag rule, MeSSrs.
and others being refused
the privilege of debate. The state
ment is based on an article published
in the Loyai Georgian at Augusta.
Mr.. Lawrence introduced a resolu-
ton providing for temporary terri
tOrial form of government.
M Nichols offered resolution to
restore the States lately in iusurrec-
ton to their political rights, which
was discussed and laid over until
Wednesday.
Mr.. Marshall presented the ere
dentialS Of the Representatives elect
ed from Mississippi, which was re-
ferred to the Reconstruction Com
mittee, after which the House adj
iourned.
The British Minister has advised |
