Dj: TL Hit CASTIGATED IPI THIi| IIOVSBAND S IUI NEE IN Til8 SEN? ATS. It is evident enough that members have become tired ol the impudent rule ot Massachusetts. Hoar has been re jected, Boutwoll has been snubbed, and Sumner's ignorant protensions and But? ler's blackguardism have been signally rebuked in the Senate and House by ill parties. Gentlemen on the Demo? cratic side were advised some time ago to spit in his lace, instead of begging him for the privilege of a- five minutes' speech, lt was unknown that our mo? dern Captain Bobadil would stand it-as he did, literally, at Charleston iu 1860. True, physically speaking, the thing itself was not done yesterday in the House-probably because it might have been considered "unparliamentary." But I um Ireo to say that, so far as the ?rules" would allow, the spittle was at? tempted, with all tho loree at tho com? mund of Mr. Cox, tobe driven into the invulnerable cuticle of Butler's face of brass. Hoar the spunkey little Repre? sentative from New York. 1 quote from aa authorised copy ot his speech : "Mr. Cox said (among other things) he (Mr. Butler) had no sensibility to bib position before the country, aud did not know how people regarded him His own colleagues intimated that he was a thief and a robber, and he did not take it up; but it had been left to him (.Mr. Cox) to defend him ; and because he had done MO iu a spirit of good nature, he (Mr. Butler) had made his covert negro minstrelsy attack upon him. Why did ho net attack his colleagues and make them call for a committee of iuves tigation on his past derelictions and past alleged robbery ? Why did he stand here, the condemned man of this Con? gress? Why did he reserve all his fire for his friends, as ho did in the army, and then, when attacked, retreat like a bomb proof soldier and hide himself ?" Rather plain language this-culling thc "honorable" leader of the Radical Grant party in the House a '-rogue' a "thief" und a "robber"-while also stigmatising him, a whilom "General ol the Grand Army of thc Jumes" as not only a coward, bu' a miserable poltroon! This, however, is but "candle ends and cheese parings" to what Sumner is daily getting from members of his own party in the Sei atc. Mr Trumbull stood up io Iiis place, yesterday, and tor the third time denounced the Massachusetts ego? tist as u deliberate slanderer and liar, and what is more to the purpose, proved it by incomestible documentary evi dence. Look ut Sumner's pusillanira ous rejoinder! Thc debate in the Senate yesterday was important and curious in other re? spects. I do not allude to the develop menis as to thc power and its nbu-e of the '.caucus," about which Mr. Thur? man made a short speech. Everybody known that thc country hus becu gov? erned for tho past hali* dozen years by a cabul outside of legitimate legislation. A caucus governed the party, and "the party" governed Congress, and "Con? gress" governed the country. This has ellalong been clear enough ; but-it was asserted yesterday, by no less a person? age than Mr. Sherman, Chairman of the Finance Committee, that "the small Democratic minority, by concentrating their strength," "would have rendered futile any attempt at reconstruction" vpon the principle of negro suffrage ; or, indeed, upon atty other. This is most extraordinary , revelation. Who are they that refused to "concentrate ?" I quote his remarks upon this delicate point as I find thom in his speech at large, for the purpose of calling the at? tention of those composing the "small Democratic minority" at that day in thc Senate to this damaging development There must certainly be some mistake. Yet no Senator seemed to contradict Mr. Sherman, although several of thc implicated members still remain iu the Senate. Mr. Sherman spoke of the various bills on reconstruction that had been introduced, and the contrariety af optn ion among thc Republican Senators, and that it became evident that the ?mall Democratic minority, by conccn Bating their strength with one or the other clique into which thc Republican party was then divided, would havo ron tiered futile any attempt at reconstruc? tion. Then ho (Mr. S.) moved the appointment of a committee of seven to take all these bills into consideration, to as tu mature some measure whicn would command thc approbation of all ?that committee the late Senator from Main (Mr Fresseden) hud made a forci? ble argument against incorporating this ?offrago clause, but solely because it was unnecessary. There was no dif? ference of opinion as to the propriety of | u Mr. Hcvordy Johnson, tho Demo eratic Senator from Maryland, had him 'eli brought forw ard, two days before .ne Cituous, tho proposition to incorpo? rate colored auftrage.- Wash. Cor. Bal? timore Cnn tte. TIIIIEB < WEERING SIGNS. The Washington correspondent of th., oaltuooro Gazette sees three signs pro? mising a better future: First : Senator ! Stewart s bill for the removal of disahil ?les would have been carried but for thc inopportune objection of a Democratic pember. Second : Mr. Marshall's rcso Wiori against protective tariffs was ta Med by only twelve majority, the West "id South voting with unusual uuant ?% on this occssion Third : A grow? ls jjitpoaitioo to recognize tho claims .?.11 parties who claim j>e%ts in Coo Jf*.""der the broad scsi of tho States, ?nether democratic or not. THB BBP?BUOA?! PA BTV IN CON. GK tri?*--SIGNS OP A BBBAK-UP WHAT THBNf There are signs of coming' discorda fend divisions among the Republicans in Congress. There is a division of the party on the tariff question, which, with a few more votes, will give the Home to the advocates of a strictly revenue policy of taxing imports. Trouble is foreshadowed io the camp betweon tho I Eist and the West on thc late legal tender decision of the Supreme Court, and upon the money question in all its phases, while quite as suggestive of par? ty demoralization as any thing else is tho'confliot for the position ol' the recog? nized leader of the (louse, a position which in a party view, is somewhat antilogous to that of the prime Minister of England, especially when held by a man of the sagacious, tonnoious, reso? lute and decisive character of the late ?.Old Thad Sto^eus." A grand, simplo, comprehensive and popular idea, however, is necessary to tho success of thc party in power. What, shall it be ? We hear the cry of''Specie payments !" but there ure so many the? ories upon this idea that it involves both parties in confusion. "Retrenchment and reform !" General Jackson was first elect ed upon this idea against tho awful extravagances involved in the cxpendi tures amounting to thirteen millions a year, all told. But this is an old hob by, and General Giant is doing as well with it as could be expected. Upon this money question there is no simple aud comprehensive idea upon which the Republicans can hold togothcraud hold the field. We know that taxes must bc lightened and equalized ; that thc debt must be settled ; that tho national cur renoy must be brought to thc specie standard ; that the jobbers and schem? ers, and speculators and gambling rings resulting from the war, whereby thou? sands have been enriched and hundreds of thousands have been impoverished, have had their high carnival of revelry and spoils, and wc feel that the day for honest work and ligitimate business is at hand ; but thc transition must still be subject us much to circumstances as tu the leading ideas of grasping politi? cians. Tho Republican party then cannot do mach on the money question, and it must look to something else for a new leading idea. General Grunt might give them the winning war cry on the Alu? burna olui'.ns, or on thc Oubun question, or on the Mexican question ; but Gon eral Grant seems to have settled down to the inglorious policy of masterly inac? tivity, the policy of taking thiugs qui? etly und trusting to luck. He seems to forget that, though elected for his first term on his great and gloriuus achieve? ments as a soldier, he will be judged as u candidate for a second term upon his merits and achievements us a statesman. ile seems to depend upon his party, while his party depend upon him to clear thc way for thc succession, aud this is the road to defeat. Indeed, it ap? pears to us that the only alternativo to thc administration and the party behind to avoid discords, and divisions und, defeat is thc popular idea of annexation, in the settlement ul the Alabama claims, the Cubun or thc Mexican question. On the idea of thc annexation of Texas a comparatively obscure politician de? feated the great statesman of Kentucky, and personally thc most popular mun of that day. So now even the popularity nf General Grant will not save him and has party if they fail to take a new de? parture. I ho American people ure like tho obi Romans when Rome was extending her boundaries in view of her manifest destiny as mistress of tho world-they believe their government equal to any extent of territorial expansion. We say then, that "the almighty nigger," with whom in slavery the old Southern Dem ocrutic party flourished, collapsed and died, aud with whom, in thc minio of liberty aud equal rights, the Republican party has fullfilled its mission, is an ensign which must now give way to some new idea, in order to hold this Rcpub* ican party together, or in order to build around thc administration the ruling party of the future. This necessity conics more distinctly in relief in view of the probability that in thc elections of next fall for Congress tho opposition in the Southern States, in a general compact with the blacks, will regain thc South? ern balance of power. Under the pres ent condition and tendencies of things tho administration is drifting with Congress to demoralization, failure and defeat.-JV. Y IlrraM. "fllAirirtli*?? IliiVKLS, It must have been a goodly sight to sec the luminous Sumner seated in thc gallery of thc Senate chamber talking to "Old Aunt Dinah" Revels. To do it was a part of the character he has been playing so many years, and,- of course, such an opportunty of playing this strongest of cards was not to be lost Paney the rotund, oily Charles, in his new fashioned brass buttoned coat and Brecher tit, sitting side by side willi au elderly old, "Mammy" whose toilette probably consisted of a yellow and white linsey woolsey . grown with wooden buttons in the back, cut skimp in thc skirt, with her head tied up in a red, white aiidiblue bandana* 'hundkerehierf," a pair of dollar brogans, and copperas dyed yarn socks on her dainty feet, her knitting in hand, n id a well worn cob pipe solacing her. Imagino an old darkey, fresh fro n "the quarter" nnd tho control of an army of little negroes, dressed in their skins, suddenly invested with nil the honors und rank of a Sena? tor's wife, and then believe, if you cnn, that cant could make oven Sumner make inch an exhibition of himself as he has by being seen with her. It is about eqoal to dressing up a gorilla and intro? ducing her at the court of St. James. Sumner, though, must play his part. It ploaaea his people.-Courier Journal 1 i?txsctllantom. TUE BEAUTIES OF TUE CREATION, ? T P. B. L. The more attentively wo consider the face ot nature, the moro deeply wo pry iuto its mysteries, and make ourselves acquainted with its secrets, the more do we acknowledge the wisdom of the Cre? ator, the more do we feel that "the hea? vens declare the glory of God, and the firmament showeth his handy work." Every advance in science, every now discovery tn the struoture and organ? ization of the bodies that surroui.d us, does but increase our admiiation, and confirm our assurance that '-tho hand that mado them is divine." Tho geologist investigates the crust of the earth. He ovsorves the nature of its strata,-tho position, superiorly of such as aro porous utj I permeable deep cr down, thoso that arc tenacious and resisting. He recognizes in this arrange mont the source of "tho rivers that run among thc hills " Ho obsen that had this order been reversed, thc rain which falls from heaven would havo deluged the surface of tho cart li without pene? trating its bosom, and would in wild de? vastating torrents have swept from its face those fruits and plants that tt now so beneficently nourishes and evolves. The chemist analyzes what were for? merly looked on as elementary substan? ces. In the air he finds two gases, ono of which is by itself fatal to animal life, while au undue proportion of the other would change the air we breathe into a corrosive poison ; yet they are mixed in such proportions as to form thc com? pound most suited to support that curious vital phenomenon,respiration. And whe? ther this compound be examined in the depths of thc lowest mines or at tho greatest heights to which men have as? cended, the proportions of this combi? nation are found to bo unvaried. Ho examines the '.-artli, he considers their uso for the growtlrand support of plutus, and he asks for himself what should they consist of for this purpose. Plants ho finds tn contain oxygen, hydrogen, carbon and salts. The two former eau bc derived from thc air that surrounds the water which moistens them : for the latter they arc dependant on the soil in which they aro rooted. However various the conipositon of this soil, it consists essentially ol' two parts. One is a certain quantity of earthly mutters, such ns clay lune, and magnesia; the other is formed from thc remains of animal and vege* table substances, which, wilt ti mixed with the former, constitute common mould The rain then percolating t'irouuh this mould dissolves the soluble salts with wliieh it conics in contact, together willi tho gaseous, extractive, and other matters formed by the decom? position of animal and vegetable re? mains. Saturated with these nutritious matters it is presented to the roots, by them it is readily absorbed and sent as sap to the leaves, there, by exposure to air, to undergo the final process ol' assimilation. The botanist here steps in and adds his nile to that beautifully continuous train of evidence, which like thc golden chain of tbe poet, binds together heaven and earth. Ho observes tho beautiful adaptation of the plant to the soil in which it is intended to grow. The stately red tuangrovo springs in a wet and boggy soil which could scarcely sup? port it erect against tho first passing breeze Hut how wisely is this cared for ! It arises from several roots, each root rising some feet above the earth before it unit s with its fellows to form thc tiunk ; further, slender shoots about titree inches in circumference, quite bare, and jointed, grow from thc trunk and branches in great abundance, then descend into thc earth, take root, and thus afford support to the parent stem. The cocoa, which is a largo tree of the shores of the torrid zone, grows in pure sand, which it interlaces with such a prodigious quantity of fibres, as to form around it a solid mass It is on this basis that it withstands thc most furious tempests in the midst of a moving soil. , Tho constant supply of moisture is necessary to thc life of tho plant; and when the thirsty soil fails to impart this through i lie root, how beautiful is the provision that enables thc leaves to ab? sorb tho aqueous vapor from tho atmos? phere, and by thc faculty they possess of radiating heat, so to reduce their temperature during the night as to cause the deposition on themselves of '.tho gent?o dew from heaven." Heat is essential for evolving and ma turing thc delicate organs ou which thc reproduction ol the plant depends. Thc organs ure situated in the centre of tho blossom, which, gathering the rays, re? flects them in on its tender charge,-an effect very much increased by ?ts general incurved form Hut what cohirs are most favorable to the reflection ol heat? Science has shown that light colors .(?fleet, ubi lo dark absorb. Hut although this fact was so long undiscovered by j science, how ?kiIf'u 1 ly has il been taken > udvantage of by Almighty Wisdom ! j .Consider the lilies of thc field." Is ; not the dazzling whiteness of tho snow drop, thc delicate tint of tho hyacinth, the narcissus, ami tho carly anemone intended to reflect tho chill rays of a j wintry sun, and to inereasu to the utm -st i thc scanty heat it affords? Is not this! intention assisted by their general low? I lying position, which exposes them to1 all the heat the earth radiates'/ while t' 3 deep colors and lofty stems of the j summer ond autumnal flowers clearly evince that such contrivance was hero needless, at.d was lb ere foro omitted. With equal care are they guarded against tho effects of a too scorching beat; und whilo wit h us they aro found in thc meadows, cnnmeling^io soil, be? tween the tropios they at o raised aloft and made the ornaments of tho forent, wbioh 6y ita foliage shelters them from the blase of the mid-day sar., while, by their situation, they are sufficiently re? moved from the parched and burning earth. How beneficent was it of the Almighty to ordain that corn, so necessary to the support of man, should grow, not on bulky vegetables, requiring much space and length of time for reproduction, but on small, slender plants, which spring up almost as soon as the seed is put into the ground. In the former caso the destruction of a crop would have been followed by famine for many years; in the latter, there is nothing more than inconvenience for a few months. But, beyond all measure, the roofet in? teresting as referring to tho curious and intricate of the worka of the Almighty, aro the discoveries of the anatomist and naturalist Every step he makes in the acquaintance with nature, every now tuet that he discovers, opens to him suoh a boundless exhibition of wisdom, good? ness, and mercy, t hut, "Transported with the view, he's lost In woader, Iq/o, and prnUo." Me observes the countless tribes of fishes "that have their way in the deep, and occupy themselves in tho great waters." How admirably is their shape adapted to cleaving their way through tho watery element ; how powerful the muscles of the tail, by which chiefly they ure pro? pelled ; how ingenious the situation and construction of the air-bladder, by which they are enabled to rise or sink at plea? sure ; but, above all, how beautiful is the mechanism of their respiration ! That which to animals wi1 h lungs would be painful and laborious, is, by the sub? stitution of gills, rendered easy, and free (rom trouble. The fish fills its mouth with water, and, instead of swallowing, suffers it to pass through its gills. To each branch ot* th^ gills is distributed a vein und artery, by means of which the blood is exposed to the vivifying princi? ple contained in the water, or in the uir which is held dissolved in the wuter; and thus the same chango is produced us in us by thc passugo of the blood through the lungs,-it is arterialized and rendered fit lor the nutriment cf thc body.
