trtxlwwl a petition for a Radical organiza
tion of thai&t; government of Louisiana,
and in presenting if had, ntrarjr to the

" iM-faror of OieHadical theory on this sub
ject. "What took place then ii best explained
ir Ide following report of the remarks
uMr., Trumbull' speeou drew, from
RfrKl TMtvlit and tlie reftwnnef or Mr.
Tramball.
Mr. Davis I have but one word to nay
AtfcoSwtor ijm Illinois. He has taken
' a' tiwdinary occasion to deliver
hi speech on the presentation pf a petition.
I presume tlie honorable Senator, though
Jie addrewed tlw fijveech to the Senate, in
liOf,Il"t reach the Legwlature of Illinois,
to iuiHuettee a certain election there im
pending and abort! y to come off. I hope
tbehese-raUe Senator wilhsuccecd. I hare
read "the aamea of the competitors of the
honorable Senator from his own party for
hi suoomien, and I juitly believe that he
ijaiaueli the ablest and much the best man,
rBneh mare'tliaa any ot the others, and all
C thorn together, if they could all be made
up lnt me mass. I therefore hope that j
the'horiSraSli Senator, when that election'
eemeftw. -will be re-elected. 1 am satis
fiejl that fie will bring more ability to the
Beat wmoti he is to vacate pn the 3d of
Mfirnii. than anv one that has been named.
(tndI,atu, satiHUed tltat, though the;modi
f ounfof disinterested Uuid mueJuahipatript-
jSmyidlibring, jrilljiiat.Tioitfery large, it
will still be imntenscly larger "tlfth any
other oan bring. I, 'therefore, trust tho
oljject For which lie mat ftJ thin speech will
be racceMful, and that he will be elected.
'plfeHglitcr en -tho floor and in the galle
ries. Mr. Trumbull, wlio had listened nervous
ly p tbcabovc. jumped up, when Mr. Davis
was seated, and replied angrily :
Mr. President I regret that the Senator
"from Kentucky cannot rise above personal
considerations in the discussion of questions
in this body. I thank him for his personal
kindness to me, and hone to be on terms of
personal friendship with him while -we are
u&emhpragOaoupylng seats here But I nev
er mvsolt have been guilty of Indulging in
ji reflection upon the motives of Senators in
tHeir discharge of a public duty, and I am
eorryfthat the Senator from. Kentucky is
oast in that mould, that he supposes when a
brother Senator takes a particular coarse
burg, It is done in reference to his future
ipelUipal inspects. I think, air, if I know
myself, I have been governed in my actions
in this lrady by a sense of public duty.
There is nothing in my course to warrant
tha Senator from Kentucky in casting any
well iiajmlatioH upon me as making
npeoihOH for tlie purpose of securing a re
'eltfitin to the Senate. Sir, he may be
cast in the mould that would do that. I am
not. And if my public course hero, sir, is
.not such as to meet the approbation of my
constituents,-1 will take the consequence of
.it. I have not shaped Jt, ir, in reference
vttfsecHre'the personal approbation of my
constituents further than the discharge of
imblic duty may give it, and the Imputa
tion of the Senator from Kentucky is
wholly unoalleder.
Mr. Trtimbunjlgpbk his seat in a very
fidgetty waywhen Mr, Davis got up and
said : ,.
" I woiild jfit fay a word in explanation
to the Senator finm Illinois, with the In
dulgence of the Senate. The honorable
Senator best knows, and ho is the beat
Judgewhetbcr, if he bejjnimated by any
5lesiret6 secure lection, he is. ani
mated by a dishonorable motive. I leave
'the' dRraiwi of Iho question with himj I
ljay fhing more to say."
CAS THE "Sci'itiaiE rOHUT CDK 1
"l'ACKEIIJ"
From the N. Y. World.
A leading Kadical organ, alarmed by the
late decision of the Supreme Court adfiidg
jng the lailitary tribunals, which domi
neered over our liberties during the war,
'unconstitutional, advises Congress to pack
"'the oourtj as iniquitous sheriff sometimes
paek panes, or as Stanton used to organize
his military commissions. The journal in
question has sharpness enough to see that
all the Radical legislation will go' for
naught, 'unless the Supreme Court can be
demoralized or circumvented. ''Surely,"
it exclaims, "there is reason for Congress
to look well to this court before it pro
ceeds another step In reconstruction."
'This is a just and sagacious observation,
for nothiug can be more incontrovertible
than that all the Radical schemes will be
, defeated if an independent tribunal of last
resort remains to declare unconstitutional
lawiFnull and Void. The method which
the Kadical organ proposes for packing the
Supreme Court with party parasites is thus
explained :
But still the constitution, as Its framers
bad foreseen this difficulty, provides the
remedy. There shall be one Supreme Court
and such other inferior courts as Congress
, my, from time to time, ordain and catab
' Wf'a. The constitution establishes the Su
premo Court, and provides that its judges
i shall be appointed by the President, and
- with the advice and consent of the Senate,
and shall hold their office during good be
havior; but the number of these judges
maybe left to the discretion of Congress.
Thus, by inarming or diminishing the
number of tlfc judges, the court may be re
constructed in conformity with the supremo
decisions of the war. In any event, ft may
lie inferred tlwt a court largely composed
-.fMudgea handed down from Polk, Pierce
and Buchanan, and having little or nothing
to do with tho war, and still living in the
atmosphere of the Dred Scott decision, is
not adapted to meet the issues -decided by
the war. nor the demands of the treat revo
lution under which'lhc sovereign people of

decision as a mark of empiric shame and
disgrace. As the court now stands, away
behind the war, we hold that there Is good
treason to fearthat its judgments yet to come
in regard to the doings of Congress, during
and since tho war, including the abolition
of slavery and the creation of our present
national debt, ir not provided for in season,
may roaaU in a new Chapter of troubled and
disasters to the country.

THE KIND OF EVIDENCE "COI
I.ECTED."
From the Xew Vork World.
Is is stated that the Congressional Com
mittee appointed to "collect evidence"
about Louisiana, has started for Hew Or
leans. The journey is necessary only to
warrant the " appropriation " of the large
sum of money to he drawn from theTrcaa-
ury ostensibly lor tuis trip, uui prelimi
nary to the collecting tour the committee
has already examined a number of
parte witnesses, calling themselves "South
ern lovallgts." and claiming to have been
at some periol of their lives temporary
residents in New Orleans. The kind of
evidence collected to warrant subversion of
the Stato government of Louisiana and the
substitution of territorial control, is shown
in tho following from a Washington special
telegiam, December 14, to the Xew Or
leans Times. The report of the examination
is verbatim:
Mr. Taylor What remedy do you pro
poh ibr the condition of affairs which you
assert to exist at present in Louisiana?
Waples I propose that thenegroesshall
be universally enfranchised, and that all
Rebels shall be forever disfranchised.
Mt. Taylor In whom or -what do you
understand State sovereignty to reside ?
Waples In the people.
Mr. Taylor What proportion do the-
white population, to whom under your
proposition the suffrage would bo restricted
a far as whites are concerned, bear to the
negroes to whom you would concede the
State-sovereignty ?
Waples They ire inferior in numbers
to the neeroes. .: ft , v"
Mr. Taylor TEen. In facl. yo8 dCsire to'
Invest the sovereignty, of States.of this
Union in negroes ? if
Waples Yes I . - : ,
Mr. Taylor la this op'itiion held by
all of the Louisiana loyalist whom you
profess to represent 7 .
Waples By nine out of Ten of them, atj
leaat.
This witness is Rufus aples, who is
one of the numerous "judges," " doctors,"
or "colonels" who ha7e mushroomed on
the surface of that State within the last
four years, and, of course, lie is one of the
"Louisiana loyalists" whom, according to
Mr. Taylor, he "professed to represent"
Mr. N..G. Taylor was put on the commit
tee in place of an appointee" who declined
to serve: and, immediately after his exam
ination of Waples, he expressed great
regret that "the pressure of other business
would compel him to forego the honor and
pleasure of serving oa the committee," and
ho at once resigned.
WOMEN YOTTNCJ IN NEW JEILSEV.
Prom the New York Tribune, Dec. SO".
Durintr the debate in tha Senate, a few
days ago, on Cowan's amendment to strike
out the word "male" in the franchise bill
for the District of Columbia, inquiry was
made of Mr. FrelinghuvseDhcthcrwomen
ever voted in New Jersey, s reply adr
roltted that they once did so "in local elec
tions." But the fact is that, for many years,
women were recognized as voters there on
precisely the same terras as men. Lucy
Stone and DT. B. Blackwell, citizens of New
Jersey, have made an investigation, the re
sult of which is remarkable, and proves
that previously to 1 1 70 only men voted, but
that, in 177C, the original State constitution
conferred the franchise on "all inhabitant'
(men or women, white Or black) possessing
the prescribed qualifications of 50. clear
estate and twelve months residence, and this
constitution remained in force until 1S44.
In 1790 the Legislature, in an act regulat
ing elections, used the words " he or she."
In the same year, 1797, seventy fivewomen
voted la Klizabethtown for the t euerai can
didate. In 1800 women generally voted
throughout the Stato in the Presidential
contest between Jeficrssn and Adams.
In 1802 a. member of the Legislature
from' Hunterdon county was actually
elected, in a closely contested election, by
the votes of two or three women o( color.
In 1807, at a local election in Essex county
for the location of the county seat, men and
women generally participated, and were
jointly implicated in very extensive frauds.
In the following winter ot lmw-o, me .Le
gislature, in violation of the terms of the
constitution, passed an act restricting suf
frage to free, white, male, adult citizenn.
and in reference to these virtually abolished
the property qualification of JC50, thus ex
tending it to all white male tax-payers,
while excluding all women and negroes. In
1820, the same provisions were repeated
and remained unchanged until the adoption
of the present constitution in 1344.,
It thus appears that women and negroes
possed and exercised the right unquestioned
under the constitution of New Jersey from
1770 to 1807, thirty-one years, and that
from 1807 to 1844 they possessed the right,
but were arbitrarily deprived of ita exer
cise thirty-Beven years more. This is we
believe a fact unparalleled in the political
history of the world, and was probably due
to the strong Quaker influence in West
Jersey, then, as usual, exerted in behalf of
equal rights. f-New Jersoy enjoys, we be
lieve, the distinction of having been the
first State which conferred upon all its citi
zens equal political privileges, without re
striction of sex or color.
THE APPEAL FOB CIIRIST.UAH DIN
NEILS REPUDIATED JIT THE FE
NIANS IN TORONTO.
TonOKTO, O. W., Dec. 21. The fol
lowing letter was this eveningsent to the
reporter of theToronto DailyJTehgraph :
Toronto Jaix, Dec 21. To tho Fenian
Brotherhood, and tho friends of Fenian
prisoners in New York city and vicinity:
The undersigned has been authorized by
his fellow prisoners under sentence of
death, and those yet to be tried, to caution
their frienaa in N ew York city and' vicinity
against responding to the appeal made to
them by Col. "Robert, President of the Fe
nian Brotherhood, for contributions toward
procuring Christmas dinners. , ' ; -
This appeal might, with propriety, be
made for paupers and convicts on Black
well's Island, or some institution ol the
kind, but itJa a gross" insult to the Irish
men, as political prisoner!, in Canada.
Never having received any aid or as
sistance from Fenian headquarters during
their long confinement in tho Toronto jail,
they consider this last appeal of President
Roberts as adding .asult to injury.
. They earnestly entreat their friends to
not now outrage their feelings, 'and that
they mav be spared this cruel humiliation.
On behalf of, and by the request, of thirty-eight
of my fellow prisoners,
Robert Bloss Lynch.
I most cheerfullyconcHr with Mr. Lynch,
on behalf of the prisoners now in this jail,
in protesting against this insulting appeal
of Col. Roberts,! to the citizens of New
York, for contributions for a Christmas
dinner for the Fenian prisoners; and I far
ther consider it an insult to me, personally.
The prisoners will not be the recipients of a
Christmas dinner from any source.

REVERSED OF FORTUNE.
From tho Pittsburg CemmcrtuI,
The sale of the fame-in Steele oil farm,
on Monday last, for the government debt
of eleven thousand dollars, is one of the
most striking instance.! of the reverses of
fortune, save the tne JJimatek, that has
occurred In some rears, lu 1864 this farm,
when left to John W. Steele, wm returning
an income of two thousand dollars per day,
and the safe kept by Mrs.MrCIintoek, wfio
Ipfl him the urenertv. was forty thousand
dollars in gold and one hundred thousand
dollars in greenbacks. Steele and aiocum
(Steele's partnerl -were famous names in
tbe ojl region, while, their money lasted.
To-dav Steele is impoverished and alocum
is serving out a term of imprisonment for

CONFEDERATE MONEY.
Freia the llontcomcry (Ala.) Mail. .
Some misapprehension exists as to the
tenor of the decision of Judge Busteed, last
week, in relation to Confederate issues aa
a consideration for contracts made during
thejwar. J
The facia of the case before him, and his i
decision, may be stated as follows:
The defendants, on a certain day during
the war, received from the 'plafritilT a cer
tain amount of Confederate Treasury notes,
and in consideration thereof, executed to
the plaintiff a written instrument, in sub
stance as follows:
'Received of (the plaintiff) a specified
number of dollars for a specified number
"of pounds of ginrfed 'cotton, this' day sold
by me to the plaintiff ; and I agree to keep
said cotton for the plaintiff and to deliver
it to him when called for, he running all
risks, .except pnly .that I am to be .liable
for arfy loss resulting" from my bwnnegll
Rence'or malfeasance."
There was never at any time any actual
delivery of tho cotton by the defendant to
the plaintiff.
The plaintiff" contended that, although
there was no actual delivery, yet there was
a sufficient constructive delivery of the cot
ton, to entitle the plaintiff to treat the con
tract as an extended contract.
The court decided in the case before it
. Jst. Tliat the consideration for. the con
tract was illctral. In other words, that
Confederate Treasury notes was an illegal
consideration for contract made during
the war.
2d. That whenever a party to -such con
tract was forced to call on a United Btatea
court , to give him any aid in carrying out
such contract or recovering its frnits, the
court could nobgive such aid.
SlA Tlitl Ilia nliinftf In ilita cnan urna
'cailicg'for' suclnaidi whenl'ic invoked' the
doctrine ot constructive delivery: lor a
fconstructive delivery k a delivery made
nt'bv the mere'iudgment of the law. upon
tfitrfi'pecial facts, in the absence of an act
ual delivery.
4th. That in tlie absence of an actual
delivery, the court could not, by its mere
judgment, make -ont a delivery from the
terms or accompaniments of the contract
which waa before it. .
It "will be observed that the court deci
ded nothing aS to a contract which has
been completely executed in all respects
by the parties, although the' consideration
for such contract was Confederate Treasu
ry notes. A contract is completely execut
ed when all the .terms of it have been
c6taplicd with by all the parties to it, and
the purchaso money has been paid ; and
there has been actual delivery under and
in accordance with the contract. Mcmtnom-

RCBINEKS DEPRESSION. '
From the National Tutelltgoncer.
Very great dissatisfaction prevails in the
Ncith 'and "West hr regard to the condition
of business and of the currency. The
Wes'tenrpapera seemito unita in ajlemand
for an increase ot currency, and their Kep-
resentatives in Congress are not stow to
second, (hem. Business is paralyzed, and
the prospects for the future are not bright.
The main cause of depression is tho dis
located state of the Union and the uncertain
political condition of the staple-producing
States of the South. The peopleof those
States, whose territory embraces eight buu
dred thousand square miles, and whose
capacity for production is unlimited, were
heretofore much relied upon as affording a
profitable market for the grain-growing
and provision-producing States of, the
Northwest and the manufactures of the
Eastern States. But the consumption of
the South declines with its powers of pro
duction. Another canse of- the prostration of busi
ness is the heavy rate of taxation, which
increases the cost of labor and material to
snch an extent as to consume all tho profits
of many branches of industry. The la
borer is not ben eli tied by high prices, tor
the cost of his livine is increased to a: still"
greater extent than his. wages. Thus, the
manufacturers represent that besides the
five per cent, on their amount of produc
tion and their income tax, they pay much
more in tho enhanced cost or labor, i hoy
make out that their aggregate burden of
taxation is forty or fifty per cent.
Another cause of the trouble is the in
flated currency, the depreciation of which
is not to be measured by its relation to' gold,
but to the price of commodities generally.
The purchasing power of the currency is
not greater now than it waa when, in tlie
crisis of the war, gold waa over two hun
dred. Prices now tend downward because
the people will not or' cannot pay the cost
of commodities. The holders of goods and
merchandise must either all sell below cost
or they must hold on and suspend produc
tion and importation until their stocks shall
be taken up.
The holders of goods and grain and pro
visions, and railroad shares, bonda,etc., desire
a large increase of currency to enable them
to hold on for improved prices: Specu
lators, monopolists, and jobbers desire the
same.
The general body of consumers can find
no advantage in such an increase. To them
it rill be accompanied with no corre
sponding benefit, nor in the end will it be
of any advantage to producers. The cost
of production will bo increased, and they
must soon cry out for more currency and a
higher protective tariff.
The two great remedies that have oc
curred to Congress for the eyils of tho day
are: first, to 'net ashlelm Slate govern
ments of the ten Southern States as illegal
and unconstitutional, thus rendering dis
union complete; and, second, to issue one
or two hundred millions more of currency,
cither in legal-tenders or national bank
notes. Both measures ore admirably
adapted to an aggravation of the evils un
der which the country labors.
