ENFORCEMENT OF THE SUFFRAGE AMEND
MENT.-Both Houses to-day considered

virtue of tho second section, which gives
Congress the power to pass appropriate L.
giSlation to secure equality in voting. The
Senate debated its bill all day without a
vote, but the House put its bill through
without q word of debate under the pre-
vious question. The Democrats denounced
the proceeding rs a great outrage, and de-
clarcd that it was one of the most impor-
tant measures ever considered in Congress,
and ought to have been debated. 1t Inn
poses fine and imprisonment on any person
who resorts to any device or hindrance to
prevent colored persons from voting.

A New Georgia Bill.

The Reconstruction Committee to-day
agreed to report bill for the admission of
Georgia which is perfectly indentical with
the bill under which Virginia was admitted,
with an additional clause allowing the or
ganization of a militia force in the State.
This bill is virtually a victory for the Go
vernon Bullock party, although it is silent
as to the period of time the officers OF the
present State government shall hold their
offices; that is lett to the State courts to de-
eide. Bingham and Farnsworth have pre-
pared a substitute compelling the election
of new Legislature next fall. A close
vote is Anticipated.

One OF the most reliable establishments OF
this character, that of John Hooper n CO.,
OF New York, whose name has long been the
synonym for integrity and financial respon-
sibility, has just been merged with the
younger but not less tavorably known house
of G. 2. RoWell q Co. The success of the
last named firm has been something I'M
paralleicd in the history OF the business.
This firm has for some years been con
ceded 10 be the leading establishment of its
kind IN America. And the absorption of J.
Hooper & CO., one of the few others which
couid with Justice he called their rivals,
places them in d position far IN advance of
all competitors.
More than five thousand American period
icals are received regularly and kept on file
at their Offices, which are located in the New
York Times building, Nos. 20 and Al Park
Row, and we are informed that their corps
of assistants outnumber the combined force
Of any four similar establishments new in

'Te.upOPa Mutantur.

Last evening the three companies of
artillery raised in New Orleans for the State
militia were reviewed in Lafayette Square.
The men turned out in full two hundred
and fifty or three hundred strong. In the
matter of uniform there was little to com
mend. Time and means did not permit
uniformity. But the evolutions were gone
through in most mastery manner. The
reviewing officers were General Longstreet,
Mavor Flanders and Hon. L. T. DelassiZe,
Administrator of Public Buildings.
When 1t is remembered that most of
the men reviewed were members of
the old Washington Artillery commanded
now, as then, by that able disciplinarian,
Colonel Squires, the spectacle of these eN-
Confederate soldiers reviewed by the dis
tinguished Confederate general who once
led them into battle against the forces of
the Union, he being now fanked by the
Radical Mayor of New Orleans. who was
driven out of the city for his Union senti-
ments, and by one ofthe representative men
of the colored race, now an honored Admins
traitor of the city, the review III Lafayette
Square last night deserves to take a place
in AMERICAN history.

Surrender of Metz.

We are grieved and surprised that the
Associated Press did not furnish us with the
highly important information contained in
the following dispatch, from the American
Press Association, published in the Memphis
Su3., of Thursday:
BERLIN, October l9.-Terms Of capitula-
ton of the fortress and garrison OF Metz
have been agreed to at the Prussian head-
quarters, at Versailles, between the French
General Beyrier and King William. The
following are the conditions: Marshal Ba
zane VIII sign the treaty Of peace between
France and Prussia, rs the plenipotentiary
for Napoleon. Marshal Bazaine's army is
to be dis,.rmcd, but is to remain at Metz.
Napoleon's son. the Prince Imperial, to
ascent the throne of France. Marshal Ba-
saine to be nominated Regent.
The receipt Of the terms Of the capitula-
ton of Metz, and the prospects OF a return
to peace, has produced tremendous excite
ment in this city. The intensity of feeling
was felt throughout all circles, particularly
upon the stock exchange, where great busi-
ness was transacted to-day.
