New England Temperance Convention

New England Temperance Convention.
The friends of Temperance throughout New
England will meet in Boston next week We'd
nesday, and continue in session two days.
From present indications the States will be
largely represented; and Maine, we apprehend,
will fall behind none in relative numbers and
strength. Among good men and women the
world over there can be no question as to
the value and Importance of Temperance; the
only possible division that can arise, as it
seems to us, is as to the method of promoting
the cause. To settle these points as far as may
be is the object of the Convention. All organ
cations therefore, are invited; and every shade
of opinion ought to be represented at this con-
vention, and we dare say will be.

Eho extract below is the tenth see,

tion committee. The effort to ape the.
great and good fathers ofour Constitu
ton in their report of that instrument

gress is too pulpahlc to escape dctcc-
tion If those notorious Fifteen could

Tenth. The conclusion OF your com
mittec, therefore, is that the so-called
Confederate States arc not ut present
entitled to representation in the Con-
grcss of the United States: that before
allowing such representation adequate
security for future peace and safety
should bcrcquircd that this can only
be found in such changes Of the organ
ic law as shall determine the civil
rights and privileges of the citizens in
all parts of this republic shall have
representation on an equitable basis,
shall fix stigma on treason, and pro-
tect the loyal people against future
claims for the expense incurred in sup

ted slaves, together with an express
grant ofpowcr in Congress to enforce
these provisions. othis end they Of

and tho two several bills designated TO

your Committee beg leave to state that
the specific recommendation submit

sion, attcra long and careful cornpari-
son OF conflicting opinions. Uron Il
question of such magnitude, infinitely
important as it is to the future Of the
Republic, it was not to be expected
taat all should think alike. Sensible
OF the impcrfections of the scheme,
your committee submit to Congress rs
the best as they could agree upon, in
the hope that its impcriections may be
secured and it's deficiencies s,rnIied
by legislative wisdom, and that when
finally adopted, it may tend to restore
peace and harmony to the country, and
to place our republican institutions on
more stable foundation.

Congressional,

WASHINGTON, June 23.-In the Senate,
Mr.. Doolittlc called up the resolution offer
cd by him yesterday, requesting tho Prcsi
dent TO communicate to tho Senate any infor-
nation in his possession relative to the dc.
parture of Austrian troops from Mexico.
He said he had reasons to believe the above
would bring information of very satisfne-
tory character, and felt confident that Mexi-
co was about to be evacuated by tho Frcpch
troops. The resolution was adopted. The
legislative appropriation bill was consider
ed
The House proceeded to tho consideration
Of the constitutional amendment as report
ell from the Reconstruction Committee,
which heretofore passed the House, nnd
was amended by the Senate Referring to
the basis of representation, reputation Of
the Confederate debt, ETC., Mr.. Stevens pro-
proposed, and tho House attempted. to de-
bate tho subject for q short time-spccchcs
haing limited each to fifteen minutes. Mr.
Stevens closed the debate by saying that
the amendments were not such as he desired
as they did not recognize the right of black
men to vote. Ho, however, said that some
thing might be done on this subject in fu-
ture legislation. He took occasion to stig-
matizc the President as q a usurpcr in un-
dcrtak,ng TO establish civil government in
he seeding States, Under his demand for
the previous question, the House concurrcd
In the 'Senatos amendments TO tho oonstitu-
tonal amendment, by o vote Of 100 to 80.
The Speaker, therefore, ann ounccd the pas
sage OF the joint resolution. Several gen
tlcmcn announced tho reasons for the alb
sonce of their colleagues, who, they say, if
present. would have voted for the PROPOSE
ton. Mr.. Eldridgc, as take. off upon
those gentlemen, said that, if Brooks and
Voorhees, had not been unseated, they
would have voted against tho proposition
lLaughter.l Mr.. Schenck retorted by soy
ing that he had no doubt if jeff Davis was
b member OF the House, he, too, would havo
voted against tho amendment. TLaugnter.
On the Republican side, tho voto consolida-
ted tho Republicans Of every shade, includ-
ing Smith, of Kentucky, Raymond, of New
York. Whaley and Lathrop, of West Vir-
ginn. he negative was composed wholly
of decided Democrats. The proposed con-
stitutional amendment will now be submit
ted to the Legislatures of the, respective
States for their action. Mr.. Stevens pro-
posed a substitute for tho pending bill, as
reported by the Reconstruction Committee,
to enable the States lately in rebellion to re-
gain their privileges in the Union The
material point in the substitute Is the I'd
mission Of Tennessee, with her present
Senators and Representatives, but she is
hereafter to bo excluded unless, before tho
lst of January, she extends the right of
suffrage ,impartially to, every GLASS, besides
ratifying tho constitutional amendment TO-

That most abb and dignifed Of Amcri.
can journals thus comments upon the
Judge and discharge:
"Wc couldnot but feel that this was
a time for Marshall to occupy the seat
ofjusticc, SO that the imposing spectacle
Of so great a trsl should be in keeping
with the dignity and historical interest
of the OCCASION. We were unwilling
that on such II pcmorable occasion we

"We rnmemler in the famous trial Of
Charles /. the event is noted that one
Of the audience spat upon the king as he
was being taken out Of the court. We
hoped to see nothing Of this on the trial
.ofMr Davis.
T' eve confess, therefore, under the
Influence Of these irlcas, we read Judge
undcrwood's charge with a certain de
gree OF sohcitude, and we are sorry to
say that by the time we had got through
with it we felt no necessity Of praying

Is no better, it is not his fault so much
as his misfortune. AS some persons
cannot distinguish colors, so olhcrs arc
nsensible to tho concord of swee,
