The Doings of Congress.

Persons who have at any time visited a
Mcnageric, have been doubtless struck with the
interest. which the Gagged animals exhibit to-
wards the slightest movement of their keepers.
Tho lordly lion, once king of the Afric wild,
when, confined in his barred quarters fol-
lows with his eyes, the actions of q single hu-
man being, who is. to the imprisoned brute, the
arbiter o, his fate from day to day. Such is
our role now We conquered rebels subducd
traitors, captured barbarians, arc Gagged at last,
aud the great Congress of the United States
has organized itself into company Of beast
trainers, to bring us from the rough moods of
savagcry, to the swcctcr dispositions and habits
of civilized life.
While undergoing this process of political
discipline, we naturally act as other wild ami
mails would do In similar circumstances we
watch with eager interest the movements Of our
keepers, and often speculate whether the next
proceeding will be our scanty ration of favor,
or tho sharp lash of punishment. And just
new, though We arc i'll that condition of semi
starvation, which it is said renders the fiercest
beast docilc and tractablc, yet Congress doesn't
trust to that alone. We have broken out of
our cages once, and we might do it again; SO
extra precautions are to be adopted. We must
feel the smart of the lash, as we'll as tho in
ward gnawing Of privation Such is the will
of our absolute masters.
But we perceive among them some differ
cnces of opinion as to tho proper mode Of ciyi-
lizing and rcpublicanizing the savage South.
There is one class composed Of old fogics,
called tho Senate, who believe in training us
with some regard to an antiquatcd set of rules,
called the Constitution Of the United States.
But there is more cntcrprising body Of young
Mcnageric-mcn, called the House of Reprcscn-
tatiyes, who wish to keep up with the spirit of
tho age; who desire, us they say, to make
rules to SUIT the times; who are welded to
now theories, and think that the present is a
fine opportunity to test them. These two par
ties would would never agree, but for one thing,
they both have wholesome fear and hatred of
tho wild animals under their keeping They
know that when the said wild animals broke
opt before, they had to call upon their neigh
bors all around, togct them within bounds

again; and as they arc not always certain of
help, they want to make tho cages stfong.
enough, 1taseldao the possibility OFF such
an accident again. M 81
The debates upolissthe passage o.sss..!!.s last
RoconstIactio1 Bill gave ,rIso to develop,
ments, A6m which wc may gather some ideas
as to the future formation of political parties.
There is something significant in the Ian
gguagd sc TlrApDEusl STEN Ems, as reported by!
the Washington correspondence the Charles
ton c0Y1ys1 c'1s1 Hemritessiass follows:
The new Reconstruction Bill, us it passed
Congress, is published this morning. Its, in.
substantially the Senate project, and Is, III
some particulars, less offensive and abominable
than the House Bill. The reason for this back
.wardness OH the part of the Senate to accept
alIthe extreme projects of the House Radicals
is stated by Mr.. Thaddcus Stevens. The SEN
ate had, or pretended to have old fogy notions
Of constitutional law "The Senate" he said.
iwas several furlongs behind the House in the
work Of reform perhaps he ought to say, Rad
cnlism. Some fragments Of the old shatteie ed
Constitution had stuck perhaps ii, the kidncys-
of some Senator'S and troubled them at night.
The ghost of the past Constitution stood in
their way and obstructcd their progress"
This was the apology which Mr.. Stevens
made to the House for the shortcomings of
the Senate, and it was accepted.
j
This much for Stevens now let us hear
from Wilson in the Senate, who is the expo
nent of the public sentiment of IL large section
of tho North. The same correspondent writes,
that "Scnator Wilson'a and others expressed the
opinion that under the provisions of these Re
construction Acts, as they stand, the South
could and would be ,admittcd upon compliance
with tho same. He believed that this bill
would complete the work of reconstruction,
and he deprecated all propositions and discus
sions about further guarantees"
Weopinc that these differences Of opinion
will eventually result i'll great 'split" in the
Republican party, and with their division will
como the downfall of tho extremists. The
moderate wing is bound to triumph, and the
ultraists will die out Of political existcucc );
while conservative elements will cluster around
the fragments Of the Constitution, and cndcavor
to save the country Tn.p. STEVENS will
o.e .sfa broken heart; beast BUTLER will re-
tire to private life, and employ the rcma'"cs

GENERAL ORDERS No. 26.l
It appears from sundry petitions and official repre-
senaons that the present scany supply Of food in the
Caroinss Is seriously dminishe1 by the large quantity
of grain consumed in numerous diseries, put up and
worked In defiance Of the revenue Laws Of the United
states Is represented that few none Of the require
ments of law are observed in any Of these esabshmens
that the officers of the internal revenue service, while
endesyorne to assess and collect the whiakey aI are
frequently treated with dtssespect and sometimes
mensced with violence; and that when offenders are
prosecuted in the civil courts and violations Of the In
ternal revenue laws indsputaby proved jures fail to
convict the parties it is further shown that this un-
lawful traffic makes food dearer in places where large
numbers are depending upon public and private bounty;
that the Government is esides, defrauded Of large
amount of revenue the authority Of its civil officers
ia brought into contempt and furthermore that the
mischief complained Of tends to increase poverty dis
order and crime therefore, In the exercise OF the au-
thotty vested in the Commanding General 1t Is ordered
that

sps from grain is prohibited in this Military District

composed of the Commanding Officer Of the Post and
two officers of the army next in rank on duty within the
territorial limits Of the Post. tho edgencies OF tn!
service do not permit the detail Of other officers, that
fact will be duly certified and the Post Commander will
hear and determine the case.
II. The penalties, punishments and forfeitures pre-
scrbed by the several acts Of Congress for dstng OF
manufacturing whiskey other spirits in violation Of
the revenue laws will be imposed and executed by the
