From Washington.

WASHINGTON, January 31.-It is stated
that the chairman of the Senate Judiciary
Committee is adverse to an immediate re-
port on the Supreme Court bill.
In the Supreme Court to-day er parte
McArdle was argued on motion to dis
miss on the grounds:
/. Want of jurisdiction.
, Q. The appeal is from the Judgment OF
an United States Circuit Court in case
of original Jurisdiction, and not in case
in which the Circuit Court held appellate
jurisdiction only.
3. The Circuit Court which issued the
writ of habeas corpus had no jurisdiction
in the case or proceedings, under any law
of Congress.
The argument is to be continued Fri
day

FRED. DoUGLAss-HE GIVES SOME GOOD
ADvIcE.-A correspondent of the Spring
field Republican writing from Akron, Ohio,
january 26, says: Fred. Douglass deli
vered an address to the colored people of
this place to-day, in which he gave them
some rather unthankful and practical ad-
vice. He said they hadsno more reason
to feel thankful to the Government for
their freedom than had the Hebrews to
feel thankful to Pharoah for their deliver
ance from bondage. The Government was
driven to emancipate the negroes, and did
it as matter of policy, and not from any
Christian motive Of right and justice. That
although it was possible that, naturahy,
they were equal to the whites, they were
not practically. They must rise through
their own exertiops to much higher de-
gree of intelligence before being allowed
all the rights and privileges of the white
race. He did not blame them for being in
the condition in which they now were, as
it was caused by the degrading influence
of slavery. He should, however, censure
them barshly if they suffered themselves
to remain so without striving hard for I'M
provement. That il fifteen years hence
found them as they now were their destiny
was sealed, as they were now on proba-
ton, and if they failed in that time to no.
bly, acquit themselves, it would be almost
impossible for them to make any advance

TACTICS OF THE SENATE ON THE RECON
sTRUcTIoN BILL.-It seems. to be settled
that No vote will be pressed on the new re-
construction bill in the Senate until after
the results of the Alabama elections-the
first of the State elections in the South
arc obtained. If the Radical programme
is endorsed by that State it is doubtful
whether the party here will consider it
necessary to pass the bill; but if the re-
turns are unfavorable to the experiment,
the new bill will at once be passed and put
in force.-Herdld. Z.
