Passage of the Civil Rights Billin the House.

WASHINGTON, April y.
The proceedings in the house to, day, on
the passage of the Civil Rights Bill over the
Presidents veto, were of great interest,
though the excitement on the occasion was
not as intense as that OH its passage last
Friday by the senate. The galleries were
crowded to their utmost extent at an early
hour, and remained so throughout the day.
The floor of the Chamber was also crowded,
there being upon it scarcely less than two
hundred privileged persons.
Judge Wilson called up the bill and mes
sage at quarter to one The opposition
made some slight resistance, but were over
borne by at least three to one. The reading
of the two documents occupied just an hour,
and then Mr.. Wilson at once called the pre-
vious question on the passage of the bill,
saying that over forty speeches had been
delivered upon it, and he proposed to let the
President have the last word, and asked the
House to answer him with their votes.
The opposition, i'll a spirit Of petty and
foolish spite resorted at once to tilibustering,
and under the lead of EIdredge, of Wiscon-
sin and LIE Blond, of Ohio, wasted an hour
in dilatory motions. During these proceed
ings quite an interesting fact came out. On
the melton of Mr.. Niblack, of Indiana, tc
Law the bill on the table, Speaker Colfax at
first decided that the motion was not in order
with respect to bill returned by the Presi
dent but after consulting his books, correct
ed himself, and said it would be entertained
1t appeared by his explanation that the
question had been raised but once during
our national existence That was in the
Twenty-seventh Congress. A bill was re
turned by President Tyler and after long
discussion, was tabled by vote of nearly
three to one. Mr.. Niblacks motion wal
lost. Finding that the majority were deter
mined to pass the bill before adjourning, th'
Opposition finally gave way, and at three
o'clock the call for the previous question
was seconded by one hundred and twenty
| two to thirty. Tins brought the House to &
vote on the bill. 1t was taken amid muct
excitement, Speaker Coltax's name being
called at his request. When the check list
was passed up to him he said, con the Ques
ton, shall this bill pass Notwithstanding tn,
objection of the President, the ayes were
122 and the nays Al. Two-thirds of til,
House having, upon consideration, agreed t.
its passage, and it being certified officially
that the majority of the Senate, in which j
originated, also agreed to its passage, | d.
therefore, by the authority ofthe Constitu
ton of the United States, declare that the bill
entitled San Act to protect al | persons in
their Civil Rights, and to furnish the means
J for their vndication," has become law.

RAYA6Es OF THE HOG
CHoLERA,--We had hoped that the
alarming accounts of the ravages OF
the hog cholera in this and adjacent
counties would not turn out TO be so
bad as formerly reported, but in this
we have been disappointed. Several
of our farmers have lost every hog they
had, while others are almost equally
unfortunate. The disease is not con-
fined to a particular districts, as usual
but extents throughout the country
and the complaints are alarming, III
this state Of affairs continues long we
will not have enough left for home sup
ply, and likely much suffering must be
the result among the poorer classes of
the people during the coming winter.

"Union and liberty, now and forever

1T is a sad commentary on the weak
ness and wickedness of human nature,
that no sooner had the disunion party
Of the South dald down its arms, when
all seemed bright and beautiful and
happy, as when the morning stars sang
together at the birth of creation; when
you had turned your longing eyes and
hurried steps to home and the loved
ones there, that cloud should arise
upon the Northern sky That cloud
at first was no larger than mans
hand, but driven by the tempest of
passion it increased, and rose, and
spread itself, until its shadow fell on
evory household in the land. When
you came home with the tidings of
peace, you were told, there il no peace,
and when you exhibited the trophies
OF your victories, and pointed to that
old flag floating over the capital Of ev-
cry Southern State, you were answered
with sardonic laugh that you were
lighting for States which had ceased to
exist, and you were fighting for stars
which We're blotted out forever-your
