In tho Senate Mr. Willey, introduced a res olution,- which was adopted, instructing the Committee on thc Judiciary to report a Bill for the payment of loyal citizeuS-of the lately rebellious States, for quartermasters' stores taten from them for tho use of the Uniic-d States ara?jes. . Mr. Sumner resumed the floor in.consider afton ot his argument of yesterday and spoke 'af great length.. He-said thc principles- be contended for, despite of' timid and perverse counsels, would triumphantly prevail. The House resumed the consideration ..of tho Freedmen's Bill. The first amendment, that noae of its provisions should extend- or be in force in Kentucky, was rejected. The substitute fox the Bill .proposed by. Mr. Ste vens, which provides*,among other things, ?hat the occupants bflands held under Sher man's field order arc confirmed in their pos session, and that no person shall be ousted therefrom unless settlement shall be made with said occupants by the fori?ef '?wner, "was rejected.

On last Wednesday,..! party of ten or twelve jjentlemen, owners, of plantations on Edisto Island, left thus city ? i the t...amer Mab to visit and examin? their lands on that island. On the steamer was a freedmen, i named Elia3 Jenkins, wt?b appeared to exer^j eise considerable control arid influence over the other freedmen, both on thc steamer and on thc island. Oh recognizing the planters, he calle! the negroes on board together and addressed them in the presence of the, party of gentlemen. He told them not to yield one inch of the lai?d on the island to any white man ; that they, the colored andloyal people, iiad strong friends at"Washington, who had passed ? Bill through Congress giv ing them the lands-for three year3, in order to allovr thom frae ta accumulate funda sufficient to- boy^the property at- the ?Bd of that time. He ?fso steted that white officers of tbcPreedmen'R'Burean had told bim the fracdmen would never fcc driven-from l:be c?a*t and islands. For himself, he said,-he WM a man of education, could read the news papers, and was perfectly aware of what was going on at Washington. He told his hear ers that they mast not make any contract ?ith or work for any white'man*,-and not to offer to buy the land, forit was already theirs. He told thc phutera that they bad bettergo back to Charleston-and go to work there, and if they CDuld do nothing else, they could pick oysters ?.nd earn their living, as they, the loyal people, had done,-by the sweat of their brow. ? - The pirty on board, however, paid no at tentiorrto the remarks of. .the negro and made no reply. On lauding they were re ceived by Lieutenant Clark, commanding a company of the 3?th t? S. C.- stationed doi Edistixlsland,' They visited tho various -pJantatioux and found them hi a sad condi tion. Moat of the once elegant mansions on th? island were cut and. hacked.by hatchets and axes, the doors and windows broken,?ut, the fruit trees cat down and every iking wear ing the most desolating, aspect. But very little land was .under cultivation, the greatest extent being ten acres on & -plantation of about three hundred and fifty.aerea. Some ?fthe freedmen received the party civilly, but told the visitors they could riot give them shelter oj* provisions, or harbor them, tbteuts having been made by tho others that any co?bredj)6r3onsknown to have barbof?d ? white raan shd??d have their houses turned thc riexfTmdrbir.g. The party returned to the city Saturday dight last.-Charleston Courier." TUE ACQUITTAL or GENERAL MERCER. General JJugh W.

After a hlWdy. war of "? vb years, tho Republican ""party provtd .victorious ; thc estaolia'hed Govorn^ocbtwas 0V?r turuod, .tho. Legit?mate ? Sorax.cign,v Charles I, brought to.?he Mock..; and a'CommonwealA^-un-: under Oliver. Cromwell, supplanted^th? Monarchy.. This was "the irreversible judgtw?t ?f t?te"G'od. of Battlos" in tb at day. We k now however tRat the sterling common sens? of tho English people saw fit in twelro short years to reverte thia .'"ir reversible judgment of the "God of -Battles'," and in I860 the legitimate Monarch was.rcsturcd to his throne; aod.reason and right triumphodnver ." the God pf battles." Tho people of (baie.Uni ted States are descendants of those same Ca.va..-rs and Puritans, and it is-just possible that-their -sterling goad sonseinhy not be entirely extinct in their posterity, and may yet " crop out" in a coming day ; non? verrons. ' We confesa ourselves better pleased with Mr. Liwroncos't modo of dealing' with this subject, abolitionist though he be ; and we sincerely hope that his resolutions will be.adopted by Congress; and that Mr. DAVIS rrill speedily be brought to trial upon the charge of High Treason. We earnestly doeire to see this -question brought be fore tho Supremo Court of the United States. We have not forgotten that therb was a Jeffreys who went upon thc West Riding after tho Monmouth Rebellion; and we will not affirm that som,*.of Lia Hue may not oe found at thia day capable:of .staining thc ermine with as foul infamy as did a Jeffreys. But, nev.crlhelosSj. taking tho."sk,wa . would like to soe the question.tried: . If Mr- DAVIS-is tried for Treason, the Court mutt hear argument; and that argument will be printed, and publishdd, and read, noV'onJjrb;vthe people of this country, but "by all . (he civilized nations of the world. Lt will be observed- that Mr. Davis cannot be held responsi&lo aa the indi vidual instigator,, bead apd chief,; of the latp.war. Throughout the struggle.he waa- but the Repre sentative or Agent of eleven ..States,- belonging to the old United States, each one of which claim ed so be a sovreign and independent Stale, having and enjoying all the' rights and immunities of sovereignty. Tho Court will be forced to hear argument on this point; and before Mr. Davis can be convicted of Treason, it must decide that the Government of the United States was in its origin a consolidated government; and that tho s;id Government never directly or indirectly acknowl edged the sovereignty of the separate States. It may seem to some 0/ our readers to be a forlorn hope that wo are spending our strength for that which proflteth not, in doing battle at this day in dofence of State Sovereignty. But we say to ourre.vdors, let no man despair. We have shown you 'that in the 17lh century; in England, though her Constitution was for twelves-ears trum ped under foot by a vulgar tyrant, and trailed in the du;', yet the returning good sense of the people finally restored it to .its original integrity. Who can foretell what lies in the womb of futu rity? " Bum epiro epero." The Court, in order to Mr. Di.vre" conviction, must bold that an individual S tato was never pos sessed of soverelgniy ; and eipeoially that the United States Government never, directly qr indi rectly acknowledged the sovereignty of the States. S orr there are. some considerable things that eau bo said on thia question ; and some stubborn fact.' adducod, which the Court will have to brash out of its way io reaobing a conviction of Mr. DAVJJ. And though these facts arc not new to well informed readers, yet it may eOrvo a purpose to recall them at this day. If it bo ever wise to recur to first principles, this is the time. "We do not propose to argue this great Constitutional question,, but simply to recapitulate some, of the leading historical facta connected with it. Those facts may form matter of usu ful reflection for men in whose hands the dostiny of this country may lie at a future doy. . .' First. It is ? fact that rr hen 'Great Britain, at thc end of the war of 1776, acknowledged the independence bf her American Colonies,' abe did not acknowledge the. indopendrnce of .a.consoli dated American Government, but tho independence of Thirteen separate and independent State*. There was ?00- power on earth at-that day which: had any right, or claimed any right, to fore? tho3o States into a union of any sort with each other, . or to frame any kind of government 'for 'them. Tb?y were then left free, each one to choose a government for itself, to enter into a union with thc other States, br to retaina.sqparate, and. inde pendent government of ita own. ,. Second. It is a fact that -tba-Convention of-New York which adopted the Federal Constitution, reserved expressly tho right of the State to with draw from the Union whenever In bar judgment it became expedient BO to do. Thir'd. It is a fact that after Gie adoption of the Federal Constitution by eleven States, Rhode Island declined entering the Union for sixteen months;: .. .... Fourth-; It is a fact that North Carolina re mained out of the Union for two years after the otb t.r twelve S tates-had adopted the Federal Con stitution. Fifth: DuT?ffgthe'adminisfrat?on of tho cider Adams,^ho famous Alien and Sedition Laws were enacted. In consequence of wi.ich, the sen-ereien Slain of Virginia passed ber memorable; Resolu tions ol' 1798, declaring, the Alien and-Sedition Lats.unconstitutional ; thus aaaert'ng the Sover eignty- uf tho .State. At tba - next Presidential election, Mr. J? F VE ns ox, tho -known advocate, if not tho author," of the Virginia Resolutions Of 175S, was elected President of the United States, and the Ali: n and' Sedition Lr. vs were im medi atory repealed by Congress*' Tho States thus sanctioned thc 'doctrine of Stats Sovereignty as hold by the VirginiVS^lr^Ji of ,,.'. - Sixth..

Congressional News. Vory stale news! Always tbeiome thing!'. If a ray of sunshine or promise for tho South broaks forth now and then, ?tia almost immediately ob. scurod by the lurid cloud of accursed radicalism. The various amendments to the Constitution, and the consequent discussion, are calculated to con* found and confuse th? clearest head. Of all these amendments, negro suffrage is tho moat important, and the hardest to mpuage. . A great many things aaid ky the PwsidenP'jii- eon variations wjih-dis tingulibcd gentlemen" clearly indicate that he ii contemplating a veto, of tho Negro-suffrago^Bill in-the District of Columbia. The people of the Dia tricthay.e unanimously and contemptuously voted down nogro suffrage, and Pr?sidant-JOBBSOB does not think it very republican or domocratio to havo it-forced upon thom.. A veto. .of. thUini quitous measure would be hailed with more;ap plausc thna anything that baa transpired in that way lince the voto of tho.United States Baak.by ABORKW JA-CKSOB. . .. . . . .. ". . The only Sonator (or Representative) from the South who has signified his readiness, to talrjMbe test oath ii Mr. MARVIB .of. Florida ; bat his ero. deniials were laid on the,table along with thoa? . of better men-or, av 1' ..at, real Southern men. " The Bill for .enlarging, the already .gigantic powera of the Freedmens Bureau has been under discussion for macy weeks. Its provisions are intended to embrace oVe'r'y State and Territory in the Union. An amendment intended to confine its authority to those States only inwhleh tbsi Ha beas Corpus' is s fill suspended (thc Southern States) was lost. The Amondment for the purpose of con firming for three yeara the title? given to negroes, of the lands ia their possession nuder SnERuax's orders at Savannah last winter, passed the House -some weoka ugo. - It is still under discussion- in the Senate. Govorner ORR of South Carolina baa protested against the consummation of this j lawless and conscienceless measure. Tho opinion however, in Washington seems to he well settled that it-it to become a law. In tho meantime tl owners of these lands aro homeless wanderers, many of thom literally on the verge of starvation And the wretched negroes now holding said land hare relapsed into almost African barbarism and are behaving in the most lawless, defiant and fe rocious manner ; as will be scon by lato acc??n in the Charleston papers. The fact of those sav age and besotted negroes Wing still allowed to hold the Sea Islands is' almost as pleasant and conto ling for Southern people to cont?mplalo as the fact that there are (till 5S0 political prisoners at tho Dry Tortugas Island ! The Test-Oath hos been repoalod aa far as affecta the praotiee of Attorneys in the United 6tat?s Courts. ' ..'<?.' - And, to make a long story short, thora seems not the slightest probability that the South will bo admitted to repr?sentation during the existence of the present Congress. So long as the abolition party is dominant in Congress, and dominant i the North, just so Lng will tho Southern States bo kept as conquered provinces ; no doubt of that fact. Tho Radical majority in both House? scorns to be sweeping away with irresistible hand what ever impedes its policy in any reapoct.. Its adhe ronts have neither eonicience nor faith nor do roney. Speeches and arguments and appeals have no more effect upon them than tho tooting of a horn would have. Indeed, should President JOBBSOBsound a horn, calling Gen. GRABT an " fire thousand soldiers to bia aid, and march to the Capitol, and breakup thia iniquitous Congress at the point of the bayon ot, na O LI vu rt CROM WK LL did the-iuiquitous Long Parliament, he would be doing tho'very boat thing he could do. The only hope for the South is ? decided break in the ranks of th? Radicals before the meeting of the next Congress,-before tho next elections, President Johnson anticipates such a break. So do many conservativo Northern mon. Thora are, In fact, already aome faint signa of it. We hove learned to wait, and con wait patiently. Wc will moat certainly have our fill of waiting. But if wo wait to no purpose, And tho negro should in the end be allowed to vote in elections, then wore it better for ua that we had never been horn.
