CONGRESSIONAL

/ WASHINGTON, February 22.-I In tn
House the regular order of business was tn
consideration of bills from the Committee o
Patents,
Eldridge, rising to a privileged question
moved that the Clerk read Washington
Farewell Address.
The Speaker ruled that it was not priv
legged question.
| Eldridge moved to adjourn. The ayes ant
noes were called several times on various
motions. The House refused to adjourn.
| Wilson obtained leaveto introduce bill
Furnishing with fine and Imprisonment
United States officers or other persons fol
| loaning deposits, or otherwise unlawfully
using public money or property for their OWE
benefit. The bill passed.
Pile asked leave to introduce bill to abo.
lish the Office of Adjutant General.
Glosbenner objected.
At ten minutes past two, Stevens rose to
make report from the Committee on Re-
construction.
The Speaker admonished the spectators
and members to preserve order during the
proceedings about to take place, and mani
fest neither approval nor disapproval.
Stevens made the following report That
III " TIC pdPtIS icieiiSus tAS SthA-
mittee find that the President on the 2lst
day of February signed and ordered COM
mission or letter of authority to one Lorenzo
Thomas, directing and authorizing said
Thomas to act as Secretary of War ad inte-
rim, and to take possession of the books, re-
cords, papers and other public property in
the War Department. Then follows copy
of the order issued to Thomas.l Upon evil
denee collected by the Committee, which is
hereinafter presented, and in virtue of the
power with which they have been invested
by the House, they are of opinion that An
drew Johnson, President of the United States,
should be impeached of high crimes and mis-
demeanors. They, therefore, recommend to
the House the adoption of the accompanying
resolution" Signed by Stevens, Boutwell,.
Bingham, Beaman, Hulburd, Farnsworth and
Paine.
Resolved, That Andrew johnson, Presi-
dent of the United States, be impeached of
high crimes and misdemeanors.
The report having been read, Stevens said
Mr.. Speaker, it is not my intention IN tins

braces q tract of some eleven Thousand
acres, more or less. As at present held
it is of no earthly use to anybody bu
wood pirates as it might be disposed
of, it would be of vast benefit to oul
Public School Fund. We have it upor
pretty clear authority that that land

of timber, aud is easily accessible.
Now we respectfully suggest that our
idea could be carried out to a beneficial
conclusion by the passage of an Act the
terms of which should relinquish the
title of the Government to said lands,
revoke the order of reservation and per-
NIT our State authorities to enter them
Immediately as part Of the public
lands granted to this State for school
purposes.
As we said in the outset, the Indians
are not in the least benefited by this
reservation. There is no use to which
the timber of those lands will ever, in
all probability, be applied which any in
terest involving the comfort of the saw
ages requires. Why keep it in its pres
ent shape then 1t is worth in cash
not less than fifty thousand dollars; its
actual value is probably a great deal
more. The General Government has
been particularly liberal in granting
this State lands which are not worth TIE
surveying and the school fund has es-
capped utter depletion by the defeat of a
bill which proposed to take the money
already on hand in that fund and apply
it toward making such surveys. If, as
We suggest, these lands could be reliev.
ID Of the order of reservation and dis
,osed of for the betterment of our pub
ic school fund we should experience the
blessings of donation worth more than
he free gift Of a million acres like those
# which We are now at liberty to sur
ey and sell just as fast as sage brush,
kali and sand become marketable. We
10 entreat our Senators and Representa-
i've to take this matter into considera-
ion and give it their earliest possible
ttention.

The INDIAN TIMBER RESERVATION

While Congress is fretting and fun
ing over it's wrestling match with John
aon and trying to devise ways and
means to prevent him from doing any
m ore malicious mischief to the country,
there are some private interests which
it is the duty Of our Senators and Rep
resentatiyes to look after. Now we
have a proposition to make which is
by no means original with US, but
which, We may, with becoming mod
es'v, observe, is none the worse for
tha:, which is we'll worthy the attention
Of our delegation at Washington. 1t
concerns the disposition Of the Indian
Reservation OF Timber lands, situated
N WA.hos County, and which en-

has been considered high crime and mis-
demeanor. But will not discuss this ques-
ton unless gentlemen on the other side de-
sire to do so. If they do, 1 shall, for the
present, give way to them, and say what l
have to say in conclusion.
Brooks then took the floor and made a
lengthy speech against the resolution.
After the conclusion of Brooks speech.

THE SITUATION.

shades so elated, in many day, as the.
were here yesterday upon receipt of tn
news of the action of the Reconstruc
ton Committee. We take this as fai
index of the feeling among loyalist
everywhere. Johnson's Impeachment
is positively demanded by the ea.nes
millions who support Congress and
fretted, feverish condition of public af
fairs generally, 40 less emphatically re-
qaires it. johnson defed the power o.
Congress and laughed OF Impeachment
until the country began to suspect that
be had reasons for his sense of security
But, at last, he has dared to push " My
Policy" beyond the bounds of even
Congressional forbearance and the
passage by the Reconstruction Commit
tee of resolution of impeachment
gives US reason for believing that before
this the House of Representatives has
concurred in the action of the Commit
tee and that johnson is already a sub
ject for trial at the bar of the Senate.
The stern temper evinced by Congress
gives assurance that he will be sum-
marily suspended.
The prospect is promising, grand,
glorious ! 1t presents the representa-
tives of the loyal American people in the
noblest attitude possible to be assumed
proudly and courageously asserting,
IN the face Of the gravest difficulties,
aud surrounded by perple1ities and
distractions the most alarming, the su-
premacy and dignity of representative
government. A very few days will de-
termine the upshot of the imbroglio.
Ia it and by it is to be settled once and
forever wherein lies the ultimate power
of this Nation. To doubt the result is
to doub. the capacity Of the people for
self government.
Stanton stands to his post where, day
and night during the darkest hours of
the war, he teiled with unceasing, reso-
lutte endeavor in the service of his be-
loved country. He will stay there, so
long as it is in the power of mortal man
to remain, unfiuching. We may feel
sure Of that. And Grant, that greatest
and best of soldiers, cooler grown with
The surging Of the storm, comes quietly
smiling, like brave, kind brother, to
et tie sturdy Secretary know that he
stands ready to lend him all needed as
sistance. Never did any man receive a
stronger assurance; never was better
backing promised.

General Ben. Butler, whatever else he may

readily admit General Buffers claim. They

advent in this city in the autumn of 1864.
They would never permit him to enter the

to come here. But alas like the bravery of

Enthusiastically avoided politics during the
war. There never was fairer or more just
man in public or in private life. Transferred
to his new sphere Of action, it did, therefore.
not take him long to realize that his prede-
cessor, however sssailed, had not only moved
according to the written law, but had been
animated in all respects BY the law Of human
ity. The course Of such a man is in itself
the severest rcbuke of the disaffected and in
suraent elements, and at the same time the
strongest confirmation of the justice of the
Union cause.-Washington Chronicle.

Tus NoN-AcTION POLICY OF TIT REB-
E.s.-The Washington Chronicle thus calls
attention to the necessity for an amendment
to that clause of the Reconstruction Act
which requires majority of those persons
registered in order to secure the adoption OF
the new Southern Constitutions:
The rebels of Alabama lave changed their
whole plan of campaign, and now resolve not
to appear at the State election on the fourth
and fifth of February, and to resort to every
means to prevent the freedmen from voting
trusting thereby to defeat the constitution
for want of a majority of those who have
registered. Whatever may be the fate of the
reconstruction bill which passed the House
Tuesday, nothing should prevent Congress
from depriving these rebels of the great ad-
vantage of defeating Republican restoration
simply by registering their names so as to
make their absence from the polls count more
than if they had squarely deposited their
ballots against the constitution. That it was
never the intention of Congress to clothe
these desperate men with this double power
requires no argument to prove. The House
bill now before the Senate will correct this
new rebel man9uvre, and ought to pass at
the earliest moment.

THE ADJOURNMENT OF CONGRESS.

We see that Mr.. Washburne of the
House of Representatives has iutimated
.he propriety of an early adjournment
Of Congress-e1pressing the opinion
that such action ought to take place as
early as the middle of May. If ever
there seemed to exist a necessity, or a
probable necessity for a long session,
such is the case at present. From the
failure upon the part of Congress to
remedy the defects in the Reconstruction
Act, the readmission of Senators and
Representatives from the South, to Con-
sress, seems likely to be delayed until
past the time indicated by Mr.. Wash
burne AS proper for adjournment and
nothing is SO imperative as that the re-
constructed States should have all pos
s;ols opportunities for admission, well
10 advance of the Presidential election.
Having prescribed the method whereby
those communities may again clothe
themselves With the character of States
within the Union, all possible facilities
should be offered them for accepting
such terms and to that end, there
should be no adjournment of Congress
while the process of reconstruction is
going on as at present. The sentiment
being tacitly expressed that " while the
lamp holds out to burn, the vilest sim
ner may return" there should be no
uodue haste in abating the light Of that
mercy promising luminary.
