A clerical error was discovered to-day
in the Supplementary Reconstruction
Bill as enerossed, the words until

omitted. The bill had been sent TO ne
President for bis approval before lne
error was discovered, but the Ffeslu lLe ~
expressed his willingness 70 Ieturm
for correction. The House accot oEy
passed n resolution requesting us re-
turn. II YVES returned, again enBrosseu'

commander of a district and the Cen

OF the I'd and Sd sections. A veto Is of
course expected. The time when. will
depend on whether the President
shall send IL with heightened ex-
plantations long drawn out, or with
brief reference TO views heretofore e1-
pressed. If the latter determination
prevail, the veto may be expected to.

Judgment OF IN nkind, and periling Tue
hest interests of the nation. IL Is
amazing with what persistency this
den of negro equality Is thrust before
the people and what hideous forms 1t Is
made TO assume, butt have yet to learn
that the Repu Oiican party holus any
such position. a fair statement OF the
Republican position SO far as the races
are concerned Is simply this: Equal
rights, an open field and fair play for
each Individual of both faces, all le-
gal distractions to be removed and
every man TO have an equal chance for
"life, liberty and the pursuit of hap
piness.' On Auch a fed and upon
such conditions let the equality OF the
races be tested, and then every man
will find his true place in society

Several efforts have been made, but
without success, To direct The Judiciary
Committee to report at the present SEES
zion, the testimony already taken on the
question of Impeachment that IL may
tie printed and go at once to the coun-
try. The House thus far has sustained
the chairman of the committee in his
proposition 10 have the testimony print
ed and laid on the desks OF tie
members on the first day OF
the next session, whether that
he in November and December. Ii il
well understood that the question will
not be passed by wilhoutn thorough
examination, and the idea seems to be
gaining credence that the testimony
will develop state of facts warrantinS
and demanding charges of imPeach-
ment.
