WASHINGTON NEWS AND GOSSIP. * W-e make the following extracts from the Balti? more Sun't Washington correspondence of Mon? day, 7th instant: The Senate galleries were not more than half J filled at the opening of the session to-day, not Withstanding it was well known that the President would send in to that body his veto of the negro suffrage bill for the District of Columbia. The President's son and and private Secretary, Colonel Robert Johnson, appeared a few minutes before one o'clock and announced the document. The morning hour expiring almost immediately there? after, Vice President Foster ordered the message to be read, without waiting for any motion on the subject. It was then read by the Secretary of | the Senate, Col. John W. Forney, amid perfect si? lence, tho Senators having been simultaneously supplied with printed copies. The reading occupied thirty-five minutes, when debate was opened by Mr. Morrili, as chairman of | the District Committee and father of the bill. His remarks were brief, consisting of mere deni? als of the positions assumed by the President, In a short time the galleries were largely reinforced, and much interest was manifested in the debate. It was noticeable that not over half a dozen blacks were present. Mr. Sherman followed Mr. Morrili, and announced his readiness to take up the gaunt? let thrown down by the Democratic party in Ohio, *. and-to fly the banner of universal suffrage. Tho debate which followed was animated by Messrs. Cowan and Williams, the latter in favor of enfranchising tne negroes, though in the con? vention to form a State Constitution for Oregon he voted against colored suffrage, when there were j probably not a dozen negroes in the territory. Mr. Saulsbury frequently pressed Mr. Williams With pointed questions until he declined to an? swer. Mr. Johnson, of Maryland, also spoke at some length against the measure, and the debate v*as concluded by Mr. Doolitlle, when tho question was put, twenty-nine votes being recorded in the affirmative and ten in the negative, thirteen Sena "_' tors being absent. The chair announced the passage of the bill amid profound silence, when the crowded galleries rapidly dispersed without the slightest manifesta? tion-of feeling. j The impeachment resolution of Mr. Ashley, if | divested of the importance that has been given it by telegrams sent off by excited correspondents whilst the matter was under consideration in the House to-day, does not amount to anything more than a simple resolution authorizing, not directing, the judiciary committee to investigate the general - charges made by Mr. Ashley, and the vote, when understood, does not indicate that the House will sustain the charges. Many of those who voted for the resolution did so to get it out of the way or into the hands of tho committee, where it is be? lieved the thing will die for want of proof to sus . tain the charges of commission of high crimes and misdemeanors, as those terms are defined by law and understood by jurists. No one has yet named a single case in which the proofs are of the character to sustain the legal interpretation of the terras above mentioned. Tho author of. the resolution is not regarded as a law? yer, and I believe does not profess to be one, and his cases suggested to sustain the charges merely embraces acts of a political or partisan character, not criminal, in the legal sense. The scene during the consideration of this res? olution was very exciting. For some time after " its introduction tho general impression was that Mr. Ashley had introduced a bill of impeachment. ? ? Under this impression over one hundred private . dispatches were sent North. The opinions of sev? eral leading republican lawyers of the House have been freely givon to-night that articles of im? peachment will not be preferred by the judiciary committee, Washington, January 14. Advices received here from Europe state that a large quantity of Government securities will bo re? turned to this country by the next steamers. The business community there is becoming weary of j such investments since the threatened impeachment question takes tangible shape. Stauton, it is said, has been supoenacd as a wit? ness before the House Judiciary Committee in the matter of impeachment of the President. The President has nominated Senator Cowan, of | Pennsylvania, as Minister to Austria. His term in the Senate expires in March next. Associate Justice Field, to-day, delivered the opinion of the United States Supreme Court in the Missouri test oath case. John Cummins, a Roman Catholic Priest, who was indicted for preaching and teaching without taking the oath prescribed by the Constitution of that State, being the plain? tiff in error. The court decides that tho test oath, in this case, is unconstitutional, being in tho na? ture of punishment without trial, and in its char? acter cz post facto, and as a bill of attainder. The judgment of tho court below is reversed, with di? rections that the plaintiff shall depart without de? lay. Associate Justico Field also delivered an opinion of the court in the cx-parle cases of j Garland and Marr, who, having taken a part in the rebellion, ask to be re-admittcd to practice.? J The court held that, as the statute imposes a pun? ishment which may not have been punishable at the time the offence was committed, it is in its na? ture an ex post facto law. Attorneys are not offi? cers of the Cnitod States?they aro officers of the court, and hold their offices during good behavior. The court is not the register of the edicts of any other power. The applicants obtained a pardon from tho President, which relieves from the con? sequences of offence, and makes the citizen, in the ! eyo of the law, what he was before it was commit? ted. Congress cannot limit the prerogative of mer? cy?cannol be fettered by legislative restriction.? It followed that the prayor of the petitioner must be granted, and also the petition of Mr. Marr. The rule which requires attorneys to take the test oath | must be rescinded, and the order is made accor? dingly. Associate Justice Miller, for himself, Chief Justico Chase and Associates Swayue and Davis, read a dissenting opinion. Xiadies Should Read Newspapers. Somebody says, it is a great mistake in fomale education to keep a young lady's time and atten? tion devoted to the fashionable literature of the day. If you would qualify her for conversation, you must give her something to talk about?give her education with this actual world and it3 trans? piring events. Urge her to read the newspapers, and become familiar with the present character and improvement of our trade. History is of some im? portance, but the past world is dead, and we have nothing to do with it. Our thoughts and our con? cerns should be for the present world, to know what it is, and improve tho condition of it. Let j her have an intelligent opinion and be able to sus? tain a conversation concerning the mental, moral, political and religious improvements of our times. ,-+ ? A regiment of negro soldiers arrived at Charleston on Sunday. j CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDINGS. Washington, Jan.'11. In the Senate, Mr. Sumner presented a petition from loyal citizens of Arkansas for the overthrow of the present State Government, and re-organiza? tion by Congress; also, asking Congress to de? clare that the ratification by twenty-six States is sufficient for a constitutional amendment; which was referred to the Reconstruction Committee. In the House, Mr. Hubbard, of Connecticut, asked leave to offer a resolution appointing a se? lect committee to inquire into the alleged deficien? cy of heavy ordinanoc in the United States navy , The Post Office Committee were instructed to inquire into the expediency of having ocean mail service between San Francisco, California, and Astoria and Portland, Oregon, for the transmis? sion of printed and other matter.

The House had up the private calender, and subsequently disoussed the legislative, civil and judicial appropriation bill. Washington, Jan. 12. The Senate was not in session to-day. In the House, Paine introduced resolutions de? claring that the American Government ought to protect American industry, but that if the people are compelled to submit to freo trade in products of agriculture, they ought to have free trade in products of manufactures; which were referred to the Committee of Ways and Means. In the House, to-day, Upson introduced a bill authorizing the payment of a reward offered in 1865 for tho capture of Jefferson Davis; which was referred to the Committee on Appropriations.

Tho bill was passed. A resolution was adopted, declaring it to bo the duty of the Government, in giving effect to the manifest-wish of the nation, by declaring against the further importation of coolies in this hemis? phere, or in the adjacent islands.
