Salaam spoke) with Iron logic, and un
paring severity he deplored the folllei that
aome of Iti members would commit; and with
catalog power he pictured the untimely and
detectable fate of the man or men who would
betray ltl confidence or violate lta pledgee.
Tbe Senator's main purpose wm to prore

the pact week Ii disappearing, fears are sub

and we sincerely bellere that the great hope
which we hare always entertained, and for
which, "without fear or favor or hope of
reward," we hare ardently advocated, that
the differences which existed In bur party
could b amicably settled within it, is com
ing to pass.
We trust that' this healthy and nolle
speech will ba sent to crery loyal man In
Kew Hampshire and Connecticut. On It we
can carry both those closely contested Elates.
It ehould be read by every Republican fire
side; pondered orer In every workshop, for It
is the unadulterated gospel of loyalty and
liberty, and will find an echo In every patrl

Brig Gen C.JJ.flss;, Aiilitsnt Commis
sioner of the Freedmen'e Bureau for the
States of Kentucky and Tennessee, reports
to MsJ. Gen. 0. 0. Howard, nnder data of
Feb. U, that he regrets bis Inability to re
port the affairs of the Bureau ae progressing
as favorably in Kentucky aa In Tennessee.
The Freedmon of the btate (Kentucky) are
very generally disposed to enter Into labor
contracts for wsges or a share of the crop,
and mast of them prefer to remain In their
native State to emigrating elsewhere On
the part of a large majority of the whites he
lellevee that there Is aa honest desire to ad
Just, on a fair basis, the pew relations aris
ing from the abolition of slavery; but the
Bureau Is not a popular Institution among
them. They regard Kit prstenca among tbem
aa unauthorised, denounce Its officials as
usurpers and deapota, and clamor for its Im
mediate removal from the State
The oppoaltlonof the Btate authorities, the
Commissioner states, haa rendered It difficult
to conduct the bureau affairs la the State
with that harmony and efficiency which have
elsewhera produced good reaalta
The Commtaeloner further aaya that the
Ji.OuO colored men who bare aerred In the
army are, in many loitancea, acourged
beaten, shot at, and driven from their homes
and families, and are likewise fined for hav
ing In Ihelr possession arms which they so
nobly hsTva borne In defence of the Union
The Commissioner gives inatanoea In aeveral
cases where the olrll courts refuse to convict
brutal white men ht abuse of the freedmen

played by ssTcral prominent Journals as fol
lows, We can but regret the terms with which It
Is referred to by those Republican Journals,
whloh do not approve of the late veto mes
sage. Not tatlsSod with open charges, of a
disgraceful nature, they deal largely In In
nuendo, which theyoannot and dare not back
up by proof. There wat no real reason for
any conflict between the Presldsnt and the
majority In Congress. If his arguments are
weak, let them be answered. If be vetoes
a law whloh he" cannot approve, let them
frame a law to whloh he will assent. But In
no eTont, for the honor and credit of the
country, and for their own self respect, should
they Indulge In the coarse and unseemly vi

Tbe people will not sustain the! servants
In Congress In making war upon tbe Presi

especially when they offer none better or
more practicable. He gives good reasons for
the positions he has assumed, and morning
owls may hawk at him, and canard in ar

tbo people will sustain tbe man who has
stood by them through our country's great

validity of the defense railed In behalf of the
liquor dealers I nd 1 0 ted nnder the prohibi
tory law of that State, that their licenses
under tbe United States revenue laws are a
sufficient protection came up In tbe Supreme
Court this afternoon, Mr. Ccsuiso upcnlng
for the plaintiff In error.
Ilia first point was that a Uoensolud al
ways, from the time when English law be
gan to take form, been held to be an author
Itatloo.
He then passed to a com. deration of the
'saving clause," tn the revenue law, a "sav
ing clause," he contended, eould never be
so construed as to work the defeat of tbe
whole law: and If Massachusetts might, by
one prohibitory law, defeat the collection of
a portion of the revenue, tbe eleven States to
which disloyalty Is Imputed may, by other
prohibitory laws, defeat tbe collection of the
whole.
In dwelling upon tbe point, Mr. Cpi.ii.ia
made a furious onslaught on the ghost of tbe
doctrine of State rights.
Tbe "Hevenue" argument put Iq by the
Massachusetts rum Interest to dodge tbe
eonsequcnoes of violating the criminal laws

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
Mr Ingersolt asked leave to report a sub
stitute for the bill to establish a uniform sew
erage In the city of "Washington
Mr, Waihburne, of Illinois, objected
The House resumed the consideration of
the proposed oonitltutlonat amendment, that
Congress ihatl hare power to iqako alt laws
which shall be necessary and proper to se
cure to the cltlieniof each State all privi
leges and immunities of oltlsens in the sev
eral States, and to all persons in tbe several
States equal protection in the right of life,
liberty, and property.
Mr nigby said, in tbe course of hi
speech, that this amendment, in effect, was
embraced already in the Constitution, but
wae so scattered that it had no life and en
ergy, but by condensing It, aa It was found
In tbe pending proposition, it would become
efficient and operative.
Mr. Randall, of Pennsylvania, briefly
stated his reasons for opposing tbe pending
amendment, one of which was, that the
eleven States to be affected by it were not
allowed to participate in the discussion, and
further, that twenty.seven States were neces
sary to adopt any constitutional amendment
He declared himself ready to admit Rep
resentatives from loyal people who could sub
scribe to the required oatbt which nil the
member of tbe House bad taken.
Mr. Kelley, of Pennsylvania, supported
the amendment, not beoause ha thought It
wa absolutely necessary, but because It ap
peared to many of bis friends that such a
nrovlsion did not already exist iu the Con
stitution, He however believed it to be
there.
