'Ibo annexed interesting report, no make up
from the Hielt mond l/i?pnuh of tho 22nd lust:
.Since ilie days of the itffpcuchiucQt, Ula} ol.
Andrew Johnson uo such packing oj tho Senate
galleries hus buen witnessed us thal of this after?
noon, when the people gathered in groat crowds
to hcur ibu diicusiiou upon Hie Virginia Hill,
livery tv ok and corner iras occupied, and lum
drods were uniiblu to obttiiu cnirauco. .flU. Iftgo
portion of tlie audience nus composed of elegant?
ly drotcod ludier. Ibo Hoer of the Scnatu was
nguiu crowded nilli uieuibors of the Itougo and
persons of mite ; among tho lutter was Ucncral
ltmovrniu,
.Nearly three out of tho throe nnd a half hours
devoted to Virginia oOTiirs were taken up by
Senators Trumbull and Sumner in continuance
of their controversy about their several political'
nets and in criiniuntion and recrimination, in tho
cutirse ul'which iln.no gentleiuen dealt each other
their burdett blons.
Intense interest, bordering on excitement, mis
kept up until ilit veto was taken, und tho mnni
feslalioii ul fcu'iug muong thu listeners iras fre?
quently given in murmurs, nnd non and then in
o|iun applause. Tho volo upon tho.various
amendments ol Messrs. Urakc and Wilson, nnd
mo llii.il v to iip xi the pnssngo of the bi!), nu*
(Alien in almost breathless ??lenco, brukou mi I?
us tho result upon cavil nus announced by the
Vice- President?
Such a raking Junn as Sumner suffered nt thc j
hamid nf Trumbull hun nut boon heard In tho
Se?alo chamber fur many a day. The gross mis*
representations mudo by Sumner, aud repented
from day to duy, relativo to tho notion of (bo Ju
diciury Committeo whilst considering tho Vir?
ginia bill, and tho falsehoods repeated by Sumner
its to tho position of tlovornor gillier, lind so
outraged Hie sonso of fairness, and justice nnd
truth, th ut Mr. Tr um bu ll could no longer refrain
from exposing them utid castigating tho offender.
Mr. Trumbull proved buyund a possible doubt
that Sumner's assorti in thal tito so culled loyal
isis had sought a hearing boforo tho ccmtniltco
nus n fulsuhoud oul'.of ibo nholo cloth, und ho
turned to Sumner, scorn nud contempt depicted in
bis fuoo, and asked, "Could iuipudenco go fur
thor?" Sumner felt this rolmlto sensibly, mid
moved nb*ut uneasily in bis chair; nud then
cunio from tho ititdionco a general tiltor of dc?
liglit. Tho Bonatur from Illinois exclaimed,
mercilessly, "And now I propuso to stiip from
bim this assumed infallibility mid superiority."
[Hero another sensation in Ibo audience.] Mr.
Trumbull procccdod In withering Invectivo to
describe tho Massachusetts soniilur's "practiced
falnchoyud under suintly show," and tho deep icu*
lieu eouehod under ii boly garb. Ho reproduced
tho occurrences in tho S?nalo n fow days ago
nilen gurblod extracts of Governor Walker's
speeches were read, mid most admirably ropro
diiced .Sum uci 's shout nf Traitor j and then ngpin
tho midionuo fairly mared nlth laugbler. Mr.'
Trumbull Iben unearthed "Loyal Porter's" ro
eord, and had rend the proceeding.-? of tho court
martial nhich tried, convicted, and sentenced,
bini losU months' imprisonment for treasonable
language. Mr. Trumbull exclaimed, "And this
ia tho kind of loyal pcoplo (bo Massachusetts*
senator has bocomo thu chuiupioii of." Ho recited
tlie various rodions of tbe Virginia Constitution,
showing that Walker hud not opposed tho educa?
tion nrticlo, ns churned by Sumner, and Hint the
Inlier could not have been mistaken in tho fuels:
"and yet," Mild Mr. Trumbull, 'Mho modest soim
tor insisted that tin vol nor Walker wanted to
brenk down 'ho system of education. "This was
thu gigantic fact about willoh tho senator had
railed so loudly, and though cxpluinod by Sena?
tor Stewart so thnt no one could truthfully re?
pent tho chnrgo against Governor Walker, tho
senator from Massachusetts had again rcltorntcd
lits gigantic fact! mid Trumbull asked, "Is that
not modest ?" [II- ro oiwthoi laugh mid slight

Mr. Trumbull road tho nnine.i of tims* w-nntors
who voled for tho reconstruction nets nud thc f?f

any nomo there?'' Was ?1 possible Ibut any smdi
nets could ho pinned without tho volo if tho sen

who voted for those mensure?, mid yet bo lind

Sumner did vote for thu bill altor Johnson vetoed
it, and ho argued 11w 1 Sumner's malice and hn
trod fur Johnson ba I proved tobe moro poten
lint than tho necessities oftho colored race or thc
principiu involved in tho legislation ; "so wo got'
