American ladies appear to be wear ing the palm this year in Faris. The reporU of fashionable balls, parties and assemblies never fail to make honora ble mention of them. Their beauty is extolled to the sk ies. while the dresses they wear, and the carriages in which they ride are described with great par t'cularity. A Pacific paper eays: "The latest news from lion Una is doleful enough thousands of men vainly prospecting for diggings ; nothing paying over two dollars per day ; men constantly freez ing to death; tea four dollars per pound; flour thirty dollars per hun dred; men living on bread and water, or venison straight."

There will be, when the coinage is complete, three and a half million dollars in this money in circulation, that being the amount of po-tal currency the coin is intended to supersede. The President has pardoned the re bel General Bradley T. Johnson, under the thirteenth exception of the amnesty proclamation ; also, A. li. Mannine, of Alabama, and G. IL Jessie, of Ken tucky. Internal revenue receipts for the week ending Saturday were f 1,500,000. The President has appointed Colonel Walter B. Scales Collector of Customs for Chicago. Orders have been received at the Brooklyn navy yard to fit out the steamers Huron, NarraganseU, Onedia, Unadilla, Iroquois and Pequot for sea. Henry A. Wise, the great Head Cen ter of wind and tongue, made a public address at Alexandria. Va , on Satur day evening. He said he had made no confessions and intended to take no test-oath.

Jiep., I2lk The Radicals and Their Came of Hevolutiou---'! lie Daujer to the Country. Congress is getting into deep water. On Tuesday morning last, according to an appointment, the reconstruction scheme of the joint committee of fif teen was taken up in the House us tbe special order of the day. This scheme embraces a constitutional amendment and two supplemental bills. Mr. Ste vens explained that the amendment would be first considered, and that it i was not the purpose of the committee to have the two bills acted on until it was seen what disposition the Senate would make cf the amendment The proposition before the House fell far short of his wishes, but he believed that it was all that could be obtained in the present state of public opinion. Something is due, then, even in the estimation of Stevens, to "the present state or public opinion. cut let us see what he is aiming at He says that "not only Congress, but the several States are to be consulted. On a care ful survey of the whole ground the committe did not believe that nineteen of the loyal States could be induced to ratify any proposition more stringent than this. He repeated 'nineteen States;' for he utterly repudiated and scorned the idea that any Slate not ac tually in the Union was to be counted in the question of ratification." This is an important feature, then, in the scheme of the committee. Three fourths of the States now represented in Congress are to be deemed sufficient for the ratification of the proposed amendment; and its ratification by the other States is to be required only as a condition of their restoration to Con gress. The amendment abolishing and interdicting slaveiy was officially de clared a part of the constitution by the Secretary of State, in having received a ratification by twenty-seven States, or three-fourths of all the States of the Union, in or out of Congress. Now, if Congress shall accept a ratification by nineteen States as enough, how is the Secretary of State to be made to pro claim it as required by the constitution? Does not this make a case for an im peachment of President Johnson ? Assuming, however, that this idea of impeachment, from the utter lmpossi bility of carrying it out, is not enter tained, the question recurs, what is this joint committee aiming at I Mr Stevens admits that the third section of the proposed constitutional amend ment, which seeks to disfranchise from all federal elections till the Fourth of July, 1S70. all persons voluntarily aid ing the late rebellion, becomes a dead letter under the pardoning power of the President If, therefore, under the amnesty proclamations and special par dons already issued by the President the most of the Southern people are not affected by this constitutional amendment, may not the rest of them be relieved in the same way? The pro position, however, was intended to rule out the Southern States concerned from the Presidential election of 1SG3; and we presume that as it has been found ineffectual, some other device will be contrived for that purpose, in an amendment of this third section. In fact, the olject of this radical Con cress is so manifestly the continued ex clusion from the government of the now excluded States, not only till 1S70, but for an indefinite number of years to come, that we care not to waste any further time upon the details of this Congressional schema. It is at best only a scheme for a revolutionary re construction of the government under the ruling faction of this Congress, or for the perpetuation of their power after the fashion of the Directory of the first experimental French republic. If this is permitted, the next thing will be a reaction from anarchy to despot ism, as in the case of the first Napo leon ; or from anotner common wealtn of roundheads like that of England to the old monarchical system ; or from the fighting factions of the republic to the consolidation of all the powers of the government in another Ca3ar. Thaddeus Stevens and his joint com mittee are fighting behind a masked battery. Under the cover of plausible measures of national security they seek to disguise their real designs. But Wendell Phillips, the infallible pioneer of the radical faction, speaks without reserve and without quibbling. Hede ipises the cant of "constitutional" measures. He hates the word. He says so. ne wants universal suffrage, negro political and social equality; he wants liberty, equality and fraterni ty," without any constitutional draw backs. He wants negroes in the gov ernment, and he is disgusted at the shrinking of the radicals of Congress. Phillips discloses what Stevens would conceal Thillips, fighting his battles at his own expense, has no favors to atk of parties or StaU elections. Ste vens, as a party leader, dependent upon popular support, is compelled to bend to publio opinion. Stevens, how ever, though far behind with his recon struction wagon, is still on the same road with Thiliipa Hence, whatever may be the scheme of reconstruction finally agreed upon in thia Congress if they can agree upon anything the people will be secure only in adher ing to the simple, safe and acceptable policy of President Johnson. The rad icals contemplate a radical revolution in the government There is danger in it, disguise it as they may. If the American people desire to perpetuate the blessings of constitutional liberty they should prepare at once for the ne cessary work of putting down these rev olutionary radicals in the approaching elections for .he next Congress.

The bill providing for an outlay of eleven millions of dollars for the Freed men's Bureau is in itself a very ques tionable expenditure of the publio tponey; but the item which appropri ates two millions of dollars for trans portation strikes us as very singular, and we should like to have it explain ed. It cannot be required for the transit of the negroes who were in the army and who have been discharged; for, like all other soldiers, they were furnished with the means to reach their homes, wherever they might de cide them to be. It certainly is not needed to meet any want of migration or change of location on the part of the freed people of the South. No fact in nature is more clearly de monstrated than that the African race are proverbial for their attachment to the place of their birth and the spot where they have been reared. The de gradation and wrongs of slavery, the deprivation of all rights pertaining to humanity, never created in them a de sire to change th?ir residence. As a class they preferred the unnumbered horrors of bondage to a departure from their homes Those few who followed the north star, and in search of liberty found homes in the North and in Can ada, yearned for the time to come when they might revisit the old plantation and breathe once more the congenial Southern clime. Perhaps slavery had no greater atrocity than the forced re moval of the blacks from the slave breeding States to the far South. The dismal march of the colli e, the pangs of compelled separation, the dreadful doom of going to the sugar and lower cotton States has furnished the staple of the fiercest anti-slavery lyrics and the most vivid abolition rhetoric! Surely a wonderful change must have come over that people since the chains fell from their limbs, if Government is required to gratify their desire to tra vel at the amount of $2,000,000 for a Bingle year. Ia the Freedmen's Bureau becoming an agency for reviving the slave trade, after the coolie plan ? We know that in the earlier stages of its operation, the method of disposing of labor bore many of the features of that obnoxious system. If a man wanted a lot of hands he would go to the proper officer, and make an otl'er to the officer, not to the persons to be employed. The officer had almost absolute power of these poor people. I hey must work, and if they did not go where he as signed them, then they would be con sidered refractory, and be punished by being sent to a penal colony, where they would be under disgrace, and would be required to toil without wagea It can be easily seen how subject such a system was to enormous abuse. It is but a few days since that naif a hun dred human beings, confined for petty offences, were released by order of the court, at the request of the agents of the bureau, in this city of Wash ington, and shipped to Louisiana. Whether they were willing to go to that distant land or not no mor tal knows. Whether they are to be pro tected in their rights, and are to be paid for service, n) man is informed. This only is known : that in the capital of an American republic forty-eight col ored persons, many of them minors, were freighted like so many cattle to a region that in the days of slavery would have been re garded by them as the severest fate that could have befallen them. And this in the very week when sena tors were parading the boqueta pre sented to tuem tor tneir votes on the Civil Ilights bill by their colored devo tees. With the tremendous power in the hands of this Bureau to collect to gether this population ; to impose on them any task ; to punish them or ad judge them at will ; to consign them to any penalty; and now, with Govern ment authority, to transport them without expense to the extent of two millions per annum; if labor should be in great demand in certain seasons of the Southern crop, we ask if it does not afford such temptations as are dan gerous for men to withstand ; and may not this unusual and anti-republican authority become a scandal to our civilization, and a blighting curse to the unfortunate freedmen of the South ? Washington Republican. An isterestixo Seqcel to a Hasty Di- voica A correspondent of the Cincin nati Volksfreund, writing from " the Indiana Prairie, April JO, relates the following : " In Sullivan coucty a young married pair, who had been united in the bonds of wedlock about siz years, having be come somewhat mutally disagreea ble of late, the husband, in his anger, hastened to a lawyer and took steps to obtain a divorce from his wife. One day he came home to his wife and said to her: 'Bet sy, I have fulfilled your wish. You said you wished you were separated from me. Here is the decree of divorce.' Hia wife was at first surprised, but far too indignant to betray any emotion. She said she was ready to leave. She only needed to pack up her goods. She wished he would be present to see that she took nothing except what was her own. He stepped into the edjoining room with her where the bureau and clothes press were. The wife proceeded in silence to take out the clothes.when suddenly her eyes fell upon a small dress, and, quite overcome, she broke out in convulsive weeping. The hus band, hitherto, an indifferent observer, remarked her emotion and discovered the causa It was the dress of their only child, a little daughter of three years, who had died almost two years ago. The husband was not less affect ed by the sight than his wife. He em braced her with emotion, begged her pardon again and again, tore the de cree of divorce into a thousand pieces, hastened to the clerk s office, took out a new marriage license, and was mar ried immediately to his late wife."

Bill to Fund the National Debt. About Santa Anna. Jeff. Davis's Trial. The Eeconstrnctlon Bill In the Senate The ItSL Davis Indictment- New Yoek, May 15 The Ilerald'a spe cial says Mr. McCulloch sent to-day to the Senate Finance Committee the draft of a new bill providing lor the funding of the national debt into a five per cent, consoli dated loan. The Secretary of the Treasury has decided to redeem all outstanding cer tificates of indebtedness, and to issue no more in future. The Mexican Legation say in reference to Santa Anna that they regard him as a French spy, and express a hope that if he reaches Chihuahua he will be speedily hanged. The Times' special says: I have it from high authority, that Jeff. Davis will be tried in .Richmond in Jane, upon the indictment recently found by ths ftrand jury at Nor folk, providing Chief Justice ChaFAWil consent to preside in the Circuit CouriVTiiere to convene. There will be no delay on ac count of the investigation going on before the House Judiciary Committee. , It is not true, as stated in some of the papers, that a eopy of the indictment has been deposited with the Attorney Generil. The Tribune's special says: The indict ment of Jeff. Davis has been made public, but it contain! nothing not iu that publish ed a year ago. Chief Justice Chase has signified his willingness to preside over a court in Virginia on the condition that the President issue a proclamation abrogating martial law in the State so far as tte United States forces are con erned. The Chief Ju3iice had an interview with the President on the subject last week, and the probabili ties are, that the latter will listen to Mr. Chase's suggestions, as he expressed him self anxious tor the immediate trial of the chief instigator of the rebellion. The House committee is preparing a report in favor of hU trial by a Military Commiss'on for com plicity in the assassination conspiracy. The report is voluminous, and will contain a chain of circumstantial evidence, the vari ous links of which were obtained out of the rains of the Confederacy. The statement sent from here that the 3d section of the Constitutional Amendment will be stricken out in the Senate and the entire amendment more or less emasculated, is at least premature, and the wiaa is father to the thought. A pretty solid column will be developed in the Senate in favor of the House resolution. The President has approved the bill amending an act relating to the habeas cor- pus and regulating judicial proceedings in certain cases, and approved in uarcn, isoj. It in, therefore, a law. Niw Yobk, May 15. The Chronicle, of this city, publishes the address from Gen. F. C. Ie Masquera, the new President of the United Stales of Columbia, to the people of the Kepublic. The President Btrongly de nounces the last Insurrectionary move ments, and gives assurances thai he will protect every citizen in tha enjoyment of his rights. Before sailing from Europe President Masijuera concluded a treaty of friendship and commerce, and another relative to postal atiairs, with England. He also ar rived at an agreement with the Papal Gov ernment concerning the administration of ecclesiastical affairs, which has long been a subject of dispute between the political and ecclesiastical authorities. According to the agreement, the Church will continue to be separated irom the State. ii'sw York, May 15. Tha Hera:d Rio Janeiro correspondent of the 7th nit. says: The Brazilian tleet has reached T- resbaccas, on the Paraguay river, and was in a line extending to Pasca de La Patra on the Pa rana. Baron Porto is opposite Itoparain with 10,000 men. The steamer Dorathera, cap tured by the Peruvian Monitor Uennesaw, had been refused admission to the portend had been burned at sea. A dinner was given on board the American steamer South America, to distinguished men in the city, during which the most cordial harmony prevailed, and the greatest sympathy de monstrated towards the United States. The Herald's St. Thomas, West India, correspondent says: The idea of annexa tion to the United Slates was extending to and was well received ia all the West Indies. New Torx, May 15. The Philadelphia Ledger received )ato last night, hss the fol lowing from Washington : That the indict ment found last week at Norfolk, against Jeff.
