The National Union Committee.


The National Union Committee has
adopted the following excellent resolu-
tions -
'' Whereas. The desertion by the Presi-
dent of those whose generous confidence
placed him in his high trust has brought
the National Union party into new and
nntried position at time of great peril
TO the government, thereby calling for
the exercise of the greatest vigilance,
hrmness, and patriotism oD the part of
those who would uphold the principles
and sustain the measures which have car
ried the nation through the war; there
fore,
"ResolUed, That the Executive Commit
tee be directed and authorized to make g
thorough organization of the Union party,
and especially In the so called seeded
States, and for that purpose they may
establish headquarters in the City of New
York, appoint a Secretary and such assis-
tants as they may deem proper, and 10
take such other measures as may be nee
essary TO give effect to this resolution.
"Reso2ved, That the members of the
Union party IN every part of the country
be requested TO correspond with this
Committee by addressing its chairman at
the headquarters aforesaid, giving infor-
nation as to the state of affairs in their
several localities, with the general condi-
ton and requirements of the Union cause.
"RcsolUed, That the Union National
Committee congratulate the people of
Nebraska and Colorado on their admission
by Congress into the Union as States, and
they would respectfully express to the
Legislatures OF those States their confident
hope and earnest desire that the acts of
admission by Congress may be promptly
accepted by them, placing themselves
thereby on the true ground of equal rights
to all men, as proclaimed in tie Declara-
tiou of independence.
''ResolUed, That this Committee con-
Gratulate the country on the steady growth
and progress of national and patriotic
sentiments throughout the Union, as
evinced In our last State elections, and we
look with confidence to the future to
confirm the success of the past, and 10
secure the efruits of our fairly won triumphs
'ResO{yed, That, anxiously deslrous that
the States latel ~ In revolt shall be restored
W tHcIi ioil0lCSu posAtiuu III the Union
and to representation in Congress at the
earliest day consistent with national
integrity and national security, and dis
claiming all impulses of vengeance or
resentment, We would respectfully submit
to Congress and the country this avowal
OF our earnest conviction that no recon.
struction can be just or safe which does
not secure impartial suffrage TO all the
loyal people of those States"

DisgracefuI Scene la the House.

The House on Saturday took up Mr.
Stevens enabling bill, and an earnest ard
excited debate followed, at the conclusion
OF which a spicy scene occurred. Mr..
Ashley, Of Ohio, was on the floor, aad
alluded TO the Democratic members as
being closely allied with those who were
lately in rebellion.
Mr. Winfield, of New York, jumped
from his seat, and said that the statement,
if it was intended to be applied to him, was
untrue.
Mr.. Hunter, of the Brooklyn district,
said if i: was meant to apply to him, it
was base lie
There were shouts Of order all over the
hall The Speaker raped with his gavel.
Hundreds in the galleries rose in their
seats to see the disputants, while most of
the members on the floor had left their
seats.
Under the rules, Mr. Ashley, of Ohio,
took his seat, ard the words uttered by
Mr.. Hunter were taken down and read at
the Clerks desk. Mr.. Hill, of Indiana,
took :he floor and opposed resolution to
ceusure Mr.. Hunter by the Speaker at
the bar Of the House. In the debate on
this, Mr.. LeBlond, Democrat, of Ohio,
took occasion to denouuce Mr.. Ashley
severely, for his personal reflection on
members on the Democratic side.
The immense crowd in the galleries
applauded Justify. The Speaker said if
the applause was repeated he should order
the galleries cleared Several Democrats
accused the Speaker of partiality because
he threatened to clear the galleries when
they applauded the Democrats. The
Speaker said that this was an insult to
! the Chair.
Mr. Niblack, on behalf of the Demo
crats, disclaimed that they charged the
Speaker with unfairness.
Finally, after much excitement, the
resolution was passed by a party vote,
and Mr.. Hunter was brought to the bar,
and amidst the breathless silence of the
vast auditory and the House, was .epri.
manded by the Speaker.

Whipping Negroes.

The people of the entire South have
been specially educated to click niggers;"
out the people of North Carolina excel in
this most chivalrous pastime. La the
palmy days of slavery, the n. C.'s wal
loped their "chattels" with a grace and
vigor peculiarly their own and since the
new order of things begot of the war,
they seem loath to forego their favorite
custom. The niggers, theI slaves, were
licked with a cat-o'-nine- tails; now,
because free, they are lasheo with
scourge of scorpions. La fact, so vile and
inhunan has been the treatment OF the
blacks in the Tar State OF late that Cen
Sickles, commanding that military de-
partment, felt obliged to issue an order Of
protection in their behalf. Immediately
following this order, delegation of North
Carolinoans was despatched to Washing
ton, to complain to the President that
their time honored right to tie up aud ex-
coriate niggers was IN danger Of being
interfered with. Our modern Moses, In
order TO demonstrate beyond peradEenture
that he is the one chosen above all 9th
ers to lead the oppressed through the
Red Sea, has suspended Gen. Sickles
oEder-and once more the poor, defense
less negro is at the mercy Of the superior
race" This is not all. There is an old
law In North Carolina which denies the
right Of suffrage to any and ali persons
who have been publicly whipped
This IS undoubtedly a part of the ma
chinery by which the rebels of that State
hope to drive the negro from the polls.
Hence, there are hckiDgs, ard wailop-
ioss. aud lashings, and excoriations in
the Tar State day By day, aud the shrieks
and groans of the poor, defenseless negro
are ever waited Northward, as if in re-
buke of that policy which would bind
hand and foot fellow mortal, black tho
he be as to skin, aud hand him over to
Che Keeping of an enemy. In the work
of reconstruction, the North seeks not to
act veueesally; but ghas would, what
coald be said if we required it OF North
Carolina that her petition for pardon
should take the forno-''That mercy e!

THE PRESIDENT AND THE CoLoRED
MEN.-A few days ago, several intelligent
colored men from North Carolina had a
long interview with President johnson.
One of them had been Andy's playmate
in youth in his native State, and brought
to the recollection of the President a
number of familiar incidents with which
his Accidency was amazingly pleased
They told him frankly that there was but
one remedy for our national evils, and
that was the ballot for the colored man
that until this was secured, the rebel ele-
ment would persecute and punish them
without limit. He answered by simply
declaring that he was their best friend.
and that "ten years would not pass before
they realized it." To which one of them
replied, Ten years why in that time we
shall be dead p "How is that p asked
the President. Because" was the re-
joinder, "under the influence of your
policy, and encouraged by your counsels,
our people are being murdered daily in
cold blood" "Do not blame me for it."
said the President; ''if it is true, as you
say, those responsible for your sufferings
are such men as Sumner and Stevens"
Nothing daunted, however, the colored
men came back at the President and
remarked with overwhelming force, "Well,
no matter who commits these crimes, the
fact that they are being committed is no
longer denied, and therefore, you, as Pres
ident Of the United States, are bound to
afford as protection"

Jury commissioners.

It will be remembered that Governor
Curtin, in his last annual message, recon-
mended the passage by the Legislature of
a general jury Law changing the present
mode of selecting jurors throughout the
Commonwealth. This is thought neces-
cary from the fact that in many counties
the county officials, allowing their party
preJudices to obscure their perceptions of
duty, pack the juries with their political
friends as one would pack a trunk. They
not only pack the juries, but they pack
them with the Ignorant, the uneducatea
those in whom the sentiment of political
prejudice is the most largely developed.
It Is within tie knowledge of our readers
that jurieg have been drawn on this prin-
ciple. who we're disgrace to the county,
and about as fit to sit On point of law as
so many owls. Juries composed Of this
packed rnateria! are expected to be useful.
1t is expected, and very naturally, too,
that they will strain poins, in making
up their verdict, in favor of him who
thinks as they think and votes as they
vote. Indeed, it is well known that causes
not few have been decided, not on prin-
ciples of equity and justice, but with .
regard to strictly political considerations.
Where this state OF affairs obtains, trial
by jury is necessarily farce and law a
failure.
To the end of efecting a wholesale
reform in the matter, bill has been
introduced into the Legislature making
provision for the election of two jury
commissioners in each county, one of whom
shall be Republican and one Demo
crat, who shall have sole charge of the
drawing of jurors. This plan has been
tried, under the workings of special law,
in several counties of the State, and has
proved vastly beneficial. The first section
of the proposed bill provides that at the
next general election, The qualified voters
of each county shall elect two jury com
mlssloners, but that no elector shall vote
for more than one commissioner. The
second section provides that the said COM
missioners shall meet together with the
Sheriff twenty days before the first term
of Quarter Sessions, each year and sue
ceeding year, and select alternately from
the taxa5les of the county sufficient
number of persons, to be placed in the
wheel, from which the jurors are to be
drawn. The pay of the commissioners is
to be the same as that of the county com.
missioners. In case of sickness, death, or
any other cause, the President Judge OF
the District shall appoint to I'll the vacancy
The bill, as given, may not be exactly
the thing required, but something of the
kind should be speedily eEacted into
general law.

AN Item IN THE SATURDAY WASH
Mr.. Scofeld, of Pennsylvania, denounced
Secretary Seward with great severity, in
debate in the House, for sending the con-
stitutional amendment TO the rebel States
for their approval. He illustrated his
contempt for Mr.. Seward bya story:
"An EDglishman once, on exhibiting
the qualities of his kennel to an American
traveller, came upon an old dog who was
nearly used up That said the noble
man, sis the best dog in the pack he is
lame and blind, deaf and old, but still the
most valuable animal I have" "For
what ?" said the traveller. "His education
was good, and his sense of smell is still
perfect, and we take him out TO put the
puppies on the track aud then return
him" l know, Mr.. Speaker, that it is
hardly dignifed TO compare the Secretary
OF State to that old pointer, and will tell
you why | am hut going to make the COM
parison. Said the nobleman, ST have
owned that dog fifteen years, and, hard as
he looks, he never bit the hand that fed
him, or barked upon false trail"
The Speaker hammered away with his
mailet to restore order.
Mr.. Scofeld, mistaking the object of
the Speaker, inquired whether his time
was out.
"No," suggested Mr.. Stevens, in low
tone" he is Only calling you to order for
doing Injustice to the DOC !"
