body seem to be disposed to defer final action on
the bill, until the result of the vote on the Alabama
Constitution becomes known 1t is feared if the
bill is passed before this voting is finished, that it
will have tendency to drive the white radicals in
that State, from the party. The correspondent OF
the New York Times, writing from Washington,
says: .,,
''The present status of the Reconstruction Bill
before the Senate, is rather anomalous. 1t is not
really before it, yet greatdebate is goipgon The
bill came in from the House, and a motion was
made to refer it to the Committee on the Judlcia'
y. Mr.. DooEttle moved TO amend that motion to
refer, with instructions to report his amendment
limiting suffrage by certain qualifications OF prop
erty and intelligence On this motion ne made his
big speech and others followed. So we are likely
to have double dose of talk on the subject, and
the disposition of the question Is very tar from
conclusion.
In the House, on Monday last, the Judiciary
Committee were directed to inquire into the expe,
diency of amending the bankrupt law, so as to
require majority of the creditors in order to com
pei involuntary bankruptcy. =,
A resolution that the seat Of government should
be removed to the Mississippi Valley was disagreed
to, by strictly sectional vote of II to 81.

CONGRESSIONAL.

| HoUsE.-In the House, last week, resolution
was introduced to authorize the payment in gold
of contracts made payable in gold, and directing
the Courts to enforce coin payment where contracts
were made upon specie basis; also to provide
for the building of postal rail road between New
York and Washington also to issue one hundred
and fifty millions in grcenbacks, to replace those
notes withdrawn from circulation.
On Wednesday, the 5th Instant the House,
after lengthy discussion, adopted bill forfeitng
the grants of public lands heretofore made to
Southern rail road Companies, excepting from the
forfeiture, the Nashville and Decatur Road. This
bill refers to grant Of public lands made by Con,
gress in 1856, to assist rail road companies in
building new roads.
The Senate and House both concurred in a joint
resolution to employ counsel to defend Grant and
other military officers against suits brought against
them for violations of the law while enforcing the
Reconstruction Acts.
On the 9th instant, facts were elected in discus
sion, showing that the appropriations already made
by the present Congress for the present fiscal year,
amount to about $276, 100000.
SENATE memorial was presented on the 3rd,
asking for the recall of G. /. Adams Minister to
England. Later advices state that MIR. Adams has
rendered his resignation, which has been accepted.
A bill to tax National Bank shares, for State
purposes, was passed. This bill had previously
passed the House, and now awaits the Presidents s
signature to become law.
The time Of the Senate was principally occupied,
during the week, in debating the new reconstruc-
ton bill passed by the House. The leaders in this

"THE LAND WE LOvE."'

The February number of this sterling magazine
has come to hand, and as usual with it. is full Of
good things. Among other interesting articles, is
one from the pen Of the editor entitled the Lost
Dispatch" which triumphantly refutes the accuse,
ton that highly important order of Gen. Lee
was lost by Gen. D. H. Hill, during the campaign
into Maryland This SANDER has been revived in
Pollard history ofthe 'Lost Cause" and in such
manner as to paint Gen. Hill in very unenva'
Bile light to the readers of that book. But the
gallant soldier has completely disproved the inju,
rious charge, showing that the order was not lost
by him, and also that no evil consequences could
have resulted to Lees army, even if he had lost it.
Gen. Hill has done wisely in refuting this SLAM
der, which has been circulated throughout the
length and breadth of the land. We hope the
bomb proof warriors who have assumed the task
Of writing histories of the war, will always be thus
sternly and promptly corrected, whenever they
essay to defame the characters or detract from the
services of the men who led our armies in the
field Gen. D. II. Hill ranked high among our
generals, and as he is native of this district, we
feel proud of his record and take pleasure in his
mastery vindication of himself

NEGRO DEBTS.

The South Carolina Convention has passed an
Ordinance, as will be seen by reference to its pro,
ceedipgs, intended to settle the vexed question Of
the payment of purchase money for negroes
bought before and during the war. This Ordi'
nance is sweeping affair, and any debt, the con-
sideration of which was for slaves bought, wheth-
er years before emancipation, or just upon the eve
of it, is wiped out as efectually as such thing can
be done, by any law-making assembly. There may
be doubts as to the power of any representative
body of the people, to determine such question,
as it is properly one for the Courts to decide but
there is scarcely doubt at ALL but that the Courts
called into existence by this Convention, will de-
eide the matter in accordance with this Ordinance.

THE PRESIDENT AND GEN. GRANT.


ftveI --xyzsS<s rIt1I ooiSeinPU cfdSs
of people, who possessed rare opportunities for
forming correct opinions on this subject, but the
contempt for his empty mind and "horse talk, y
and the regrets that so valiant a warrior wore not
cleverer head, are now giving place to settled
conviction that his moral qualifications are as de-
fective as his mental are shallow.
When the President, last summer, removed
STANTON from the War Office, and appointed
GRANT Secretary, al interim, it seems that there
existed cordial understanding between the two
as to the Importance of themeasure, and the policy
to be followed in the future; or, in other words,
thatif the Senate insisted upon re-nstating STAN
TON that GRANT, under the orders of the President
was to refuse to restore the war portfolio. In the
meantime the Senate does insist upon STANToN's S
reinstatement, and at the propermoment, GRANT
quietly permits him to take control of the War
Office.
A question of veracity is now raised between
GRANT and the President, upon this asserted un-
derstanding had between them. A lengthy cor
respondence has been published, and the question
is fully ventilated on both Sides GRANTS accused
of playing false and the President is charged with
the utterance Of that which is untrue. This ques-
ton of veracty we leave for the two gentlemen to
settle between themselves in the way best suited
to their incination and without any speculation as
to which of the two has the best cause. A query,
however, suggests itself, namely: If Gen. GRANT
had not induced the President to believe that he
would obey his instructions in the matter is it
probable that he would have been put in STAN
TONS place?
The denouement of this JOHNSON GRANT con-
troversy may prove to be of the most serious char
acter. We consider the attitude of affairs alto
gether threatening.
GRANT has thrown himself into the arms of the
radicals, as the Presidential candidate for 1868.
His nomination is considered a fixed fact, but his
election is matter of less certainty. He is no
doubt the most available man the Republican party
can agree upon, and his peculiarly 'good luck, ~
that has lifted him thus high in the worlds notice
with such a slender amount of propelling force,
may likewise, carry him into the Presidential chair
in March, 1869.
