whom it is occupied, do not want any

WEDNESDAY, MAY 10. 1870.

In the Senate, yesterday, the bill for the
reinforcement ofthe Fifteenth Amendment, y
now called the bill of "Pains and Penalties.
was debated all day. Dir. Ferry, of Conn, in
reply to the speeches of Mr.. Morton, and 9TH
ers, breathing vengeance against the South,
said :-"Ireland tells the story to day Of the
effect of disabilities and test, oaths. Has five
hundred years Of this system raised up loyal
generation in Ireland? No, sir. What did
Austria do with her disabilities and her test
acts in Hungary? Were the fires of rebellion
ever quencbed? Now when she has given her
free Constitution and the right to reprcsen-
tation, peace everywhere prevails" Mr.. Nor
ton considered the remarks Of DIR. Ferry as
highly Objectionable, and as calculated to give
aid and comfort to the "rebels.' MIR. Cameron
said that the rebels in the South were rebels
still, and ought not to be forgiven until
they repented. He thought that if they had
the power, they would elect Gen. Lee Presi-
dent of the U. S. land noble, great, and
Union President be would bell Mr.. Sawyer
said that the effect of disabilities and the test
oath was to force the Government very often to
look to rascals and incompetents in the
Southern States, to attend to its business.
Numerous other speeches were made, but no
vote taken.
