Belmont chronicle. [volume] (St. Clairsville, Ohio) 1855-1973, 1867-01-17

The President last week sent into
Congress his veto of the bill granting
suffrage to the blacks of the District Of
Columbia. Both houses took up the
veto message and passed the bill by
the requisite two-thirds vote, and it is
now a law. The message, although
dignifed in tone, has given offense to
some Of Mr.. Johnson's friends. The
N. Y. Evening Post says of it:
"Nr. johnson is opposed to universal
suffrage. In the Veto Message he has
struck a blow at progress not only here but
in Great Britain; has ranged himself on
the side of privilege and against popular
right; has fallen back from the high ground
which he took in the summer of 1865;
no longer displays faith In the people Of
that broad and true Catholic spirit of Dem
ocracy which is ready to trust the whole
people to govern themselves, and which is
justified by the results wherever it has had
trial I"

A Terrible State of AfFairs In Ar
kansas.

Gen. Ord has just made report upon the
condition of things in Arkansas. He sums
up matters as follows:
''Ouirages, assaults and murders, COM
mitted on the persons of freedmen and
women, are being continually reported from
nearly all sections of the State. and deci-
ded want of disposition to punish offenders
apparently exists with the local civil officers
and in the minds of the people. There
have been reported fifty-two murders of
freed persons by white men in the State in
the past three or four months, and no re-
ports have been received that the murderers
bave been imprisoned or punished. In some
parts of the State, particularly in the South
west and Southeast, freedmen's lives are
threatened if they report their wrongs to
the Agent of the Bureau, and in many in
stances the parties making reports are
missed, and never heard of afterwsrd. 1t
is believed that the number of murders re-
ported is not half the number actually COM
mitted during the time mentioned.

A FIELD DAY In THE HOUSE.

An exciting and bitter debate took
place in the U. S. House Of Represen-
tatives few days ago, between Messrs.
Spalding, of Ohio, and Stevens, Of
Pennsylvania. Judge Spalding de-
clared that the Constitutional Amend
ment is finality in the restoration of
the revolted States. in the event of its
adoption by them. HE also took
ground against the proposition to i'm.
peach johnson. Judge Spalding said
if, on the assembling of the XLth Con-
gress, on the 4th of March next, it
should be established that that meas
ure was repudiated by the Southern
States, and flung back with contempt
in the face of Congress, that he would
be one of the foremost in supporting
reconstruction of those States by
Congress. He.said, in answer, to she
cry of conservative" that 1t would
take some time to get him out of the
Republican ranks. He was in at the
inception of the party, and long before
that party was organized he laid down
the honors of the highest judicial Of
fee in Ohio because he differed with
the Democratic party on the subject Of
the Fugitive Slave Law. He thought
the President had done great many
wrong things, some of them approach
ed the very verge of what would form
good article of impeachment. He
spoke warmly against the tyranny, as
he called it, which the Pennsylvania
sought to exercise over the House.
Mr.. Stevens, in reply, made very
juicy speech. He set out by denying
that the Constitutional Amendment is
finality. He said he proposed to re-
pudiate their so-called State govern
ments, and order them to go on and
form such governments as Congress
had directed, under the amended Con-
stitution. Mr.. Stevens alluded to the
vacancy on the U. S. District Court
bench for Northern Ohio, and declared
that that would probably account for
the course of Judge Spalding and three
or four of his colleagues. Mr. Bing-
ham, of this District, is one of the
"three or four" alluded to by Mr.. S.
Mr.. Stevens said he would never vote
for the admission of another State that
excluded negroes from the ballot. An
allusion Tennessee brought Horace
May.7,ard to his feet, who indulged in
good-natured colloquy with Mr.. S.,
and who, in closing, said Tennessee felt
very kindly toward him, and that he
had heard many regrets expressed that
Mr.. S. had not visited that section with
the excursionists, during the holidays.
Mr.. S. said he had no preparations for
burial down there; his shroud was not
ready, and the ground difficultto break.
In closing, Mr.. Stevens spoke of Judge
Spalding's eulogium upon Mr.. Johnson,
and wondered if the Collector of his
District had been removed. ~
The debate was very exciting. Both
speakers INDUCED freely in personal
tiles. The cold commoncr did mt
get any advantage of Judge Spalding
on the main question. The Judge made
a serious mistake and was worsted in
his defense of johnson; but otherwise
he has the best of the argument.
