WASHINGTON, Fobruary ll.-Tho report of tho New Orleans Riot Investigating Committee states that they wore appointed on the 10th of Decem? ber, and commenced the following day the exami? nation c* the citizens of Louisiana here. They commenced the examination at Now Orleans on the 22d of December, and closed on the 3d of January. Tho examination was resumed here on the 15th, and finally closod on the 2d of February. The Committee examined 179 witnesses, 47 of whom were examined at the requost of citizens of New Orleans. Our history shows no riot so destitute of justin- | able cause resulting in a manner so inhuman and fiendliko. Tho direct causo of the riot was the re? assembling of the Convention. The President of the Convention gives tho following history of the riot : Some policemen acted to save, not de? stroy lifo; several members, including Mr. FISH, wero saved by being arrested. Governor HABN was protected in passing from the Hall to prison, thou ph he received many blows from poli?omen before ho succeeded in falling into the hands that saved him. Some other instances of the kindness of other polico ?i re mentioned; they were, however, exceptional cases. Tho police and mob, in bloody emulation, con. tinned the butchery until nearly 200 were either killod or wounded. Ten policemen were wounded thongh none severely, and nono killed. If the Convention had been armed, or the colored people been called upon in advance, to protect the Con? vention, Uiia would not have been the case. The riot was not an accident. It was the determined purpose of the Mayor to disperse the Convention. The Committee then proceeded to discuss the question, quoting a telegram from the President to Lieutenant-Governor VOOBHEES, which they say assured VOORHEES of Presidential support. Tho President is censured for overlooking the Gover? nor, whom he knew to bo loyal, and addressing thc Lieutenant-Governor and Attorney General, known not to be in sympathy with the Governor, and giving directions, which, carried, ont, as the Lieutenant-Governor and Attorney General under? stood, them, would have vested tho Mayor with au? to ority to arrest the members of the Convention. The President knew the condition of affairs in July; knew that the rebels and disloyal meu con? trolled tho elections; knew that such men chiefly composed tho police; knew that Mayor MONROE, an unpardoned rebel, was suspended by the mili? tary, and that he had subsequently pardoned him; must have known YOREEES and his rebel antece? dents; knew that riot and bloodshed were appre? hended; knew that military orders were inferior, yet, without the knowledge of the Secretary of War or the General of tho Army, gave orders, by telegraph, intended to compel the soldiers to aid the rebels against mon who were loyal during tho war. The Committee discuss at length the right of Congress to legislate so as to place Louisiana within the control of loyal men. The military must control until tho people of Louisiana adopt a, constitution assuring the safety of the Republic, and receiving the sanction of Congrass. These results follow a successful war. The results would not follow had it been an insurrection instead of a civil war. Until?t loyal State of Louisiana exists, in full accord with tho United States, and a Repub? lican form of government is guaranteed, the ob? jects of the war are unobtained. The accomplish? ment of this requires a temporary provisional government, in order that the loyal people of Loui? siana may form such a constitution. In the discharge of their duty, the Committee submits the following Bill : Th3 President to nominate and the Senate to confirm the Governor of Louisiana, who is to hold office for a year, un? less sooner removed by the President, with the consent of the Senate, or unless sooner relieved by a successor, elected under the provisions of this act. The Governor to be a citizen of Louisiana, and must at all times have borne true faith and allegiance to the United States, and shall take the oath of July 2,1862, and in addition, that he has done no act which would work disqualification under the provisions of this act. Secondly. The President shall nominate, and the Senate confirm, a provisional counsel of nine per? sons, to be qualified like the Governor, and taking the some oath, to be continued in office unless sooner removed by the President, the Senate con? senting, until a Legislature is duly elected under the provisions of this BUL The Council, with the Governor, to be invested with legislative power. In no case shall such Governor or Counsellor en? ter office until confirmed by the Senate. The Coun? cil to remain in perpetual session, with power to adjourn not longer than thirty days; th? majority thereof to constitute a quorum. Thirdly. It shall be the duty of the Governor to see to the execution of Federal and State laws; he sholl nominate, and, with the consent of Council, commission offices now existing, or hereafter to be created, to hold, unless relieved by the Governor, Council consenting, until their successors are elected and qualified, as herein provided. AU such officers and members of the Convention herein provided must bo able to take the oath prescribed. Fourthly. The Electors qualified by this Act, un? less Congress orders otherwise, on the first Tues? day of June, 18G7, shall elect a Governor, Lieuten ant-Governer, a Senate, House of.

Upon establishing the above facts, and subscribing tho oath that these things are true which bring him within the proviso, and that he will bear true alle? giance to the Government of the United States and the perpetual Union of tho States thereunder, he shall receive a certificate ontitlin.? him to elec? toral rights. Sixthly. The Secretary of War is authorized to make and publish rules for the just and true regis? tration of Electors prior to the day of election herein ordered.

Minority Report of New Orleans Investi? gating; Committee. WASHINGTON, February ll.-Mr. BOVEB'S minori? ty report on the New Orleans riot supports, by evi? dence and arguments, the versions of tho riot which were published at the time, and repeated since by the press of Mew Orleans and the South, concluding that the riot waa local, originating in local circumstances, and showing no hostility on the part of the community toward the Federal Gov? ernment. It was monstrous to bold a whole peo? ple responsible for a riot, provoked by incendiary speeches. The same course would have led to a riot in any city. The Union Conventionists, in in? citing the negroes, counted first on military, and then on Con:pros8icnal support. He denounces Judge HOWELL as heading the conspiracy and thou abandoning hie fe l?os-conspira tors. Congrcssionoi, WASHINGTON, February ll.-In the House, among the Bills introduced was one to promote commerce and ship-building, and one to establish a mail route in West Virginia. The report from the Committee on Ways and Moans, amending the Internal Bevenuo Bill, was made the special order for Wednesday. The Clerk was directed to pay the Judiciary not more than $10,000 to prosecute investigations. Mr. ELLIOT reported the majority New Orleans riot report. Mr. BOTES reported the minority re? port. Mr. ELLIOT reported a Bill re-establishing the State of Louisiana, on which he moved the previ? ous question, and the House seconded the previ? ous question by a voie of -sevcorty-nine" against seventy. The excitement in the House to-day was intense. Mr. STEVENS, who, it is said, had a three-column speech on his Bill in type, resisted the previous question on tho New Orleans Biot Committee Bill, but ineffectually. He was not anxious to have his Bill discussed, but was evidently mystified by the rapid proceedings after every fillibustering motion, and wanted to know, before the vote, where the proposed action would place his Bill. His repeat? ed questions produced laughter, and it is feared, by the friends of his Bill, that the House will get in the habit of laughing at him, which would destroy the effect of the closing speech, to which Mr. EL? LIOT was entitled as Chairman of the Committee, The motion to adjourn provailed pending the vote on the main question, which was forced by a Con? gressman demanding the reading of the Bill, which would occupy an hour. The minority are most resolute, and on the Republican side there seems to be much dissatisfaction. Fillibustering motions followed; also several mo? tions to adjourn, on which the ayes and noes were ordered when the House refused to adjourn by a vote of 81 to 126. Mr. ELLIOT expressed a desire to postpone the vote so that members could read the Bill, but was unwilling to put it out of his hands. Th6 House, however, ordered the main question by a vote of 85 to 59, when Mr. ELLIOT moved an adjournment, which was carried. SENATE. , In the Senate the proceedings wer.) generally unimportant. The President's power to appoint Provisional Governors was discussed at some length. Mr. DIXON moved to amend by asking whether President LINCOLN had the power, and qestioned the terms of the resolution. Mr. FES SEHDEN deprecated the present consideration, and finally the whole matter was tabled. The Invalid Pension Bill was passed. The Pos totnes Appro? priation Bill was passed. The Senate is in session to-night. Washington News.

Philology, or tho science of language, during the past three quarters of a century, has occupied a considerable degree of attention in the schools of | Germr.ny. Thero only, wo behove, is tho study of | language pursued, not as a means to on end, but for itself alone. Philology, in academic impor? tance, ranks with philosophy, with the higher physical sciences, and the more advanced of the professional studies. The pursuit is a laborious one, exacting unwearied application and continued and industrious research. - For its exhaustive treatment, were such possible, every branch of human knowledge is laid under contribution; and it in turn pays back with interest, to every art and scionce, what has thus been borrowed. By the. aids of comparative philology, history and chro? nology are slowly emerging from the regions of j doubt to the gratifying certainty of the exact sci? ences. Ethnology may be said to owe its very ex? istence '.o this kindred study. Archaeology, pain? fully graping in tho dork heretofore, now stops forth with somo degree of confidence, having a sure canon,-a compass by which it can find ita reckoning anywhere and at any lime. MAX MULLER (a German by birth,) the distin? guished professor of Sanskrit at the University of Oxford, in tho introduction to one of his recent works, beautifully remarks: "There is a science of | language as there is a science of the earth, its flowers and its stars; and though, as a young scionce, it is very far as yet from that perfection which-thanks to the efforts of tho intellectual giants of so many ages and many countries has been roached in astronomy, botany, and even in geology-, it is perhaps for this very reason, all the more fascinating. It is a young and a growing science, that puts forth new strength every year, that opens new prospects, new fields of enterprise on every side, and rewards its students with richer j harvest than could bo expected from the exhaust? ed soil of the old sciences. The whole world is open, as it were, to the student of language. There is virgin soil close to our door, and there ore whole continents still to conquer if we step be? yond the frontiers of ancient civilization. We may select a small village in our neighborhood to pick ap dialectic varieties, and to collect phrases, pro? verbs and stories, which will disclose fragments, almost ground to dust, it is true, yet tmdenial le fragments of the earliest formations of Saxon speech and Saxon thought." It was by such industry, though for other pur? poses, Sir WALTEE SCOTT gathered his wealth of "auld world'sltales," which stood him in such good [ stead in his writings, both of prose and verse. Muasnjs and the Brothers GRIMM thus went to I work to rescue from oblivion the thousands of ] popular tales and traditions, the superstitions, Local, religious and national, of the primitive deni? zens of the forests and mountains:'of Germany. Hundreds of others, less known to fame, perhaps, nave since emulated their example, and have reaped rich rewards, both in the fascination of the pursuit itself, and in the proper appreciation and Tavor awarded to the result of their labors. In america, the field is moro contracted True, Indian archmology has its fascination, and has at? tracted the attention of many scholars, who have 3 evo ted their fives to the elucidation of the many , problems connected with that mysterious race of nen. The early history of the European settlers }f this country has received, perhaps, more than ts due share of attention from the scholars and listorians of the country. The field is exhausted ind farther gleaning can only be rewarded with mail, the grain having long since been gathered 3omparatively little labor, however, has been be itowed on the collection, examination, digesting md classification of local peculiarities of speech ? ir dialects. Specimens abound in the works of | lotion, but more especially in our humorous litern ure. There have also boen partial essays at col? odi?n, in the form of so-called Dictionaries of ?nericanisms. But we remember no systematic Sort by a competent hand, at a scientific classifi? cation. This is, perhaps, because the subject is oo new, is too near to us, and so intimately asso? ciated with vulgarity, in the minds of all educated nen, that we presume it has always hitherto been [ considered beneath the dignity of science. The same holds good, even to a greater degree >f the African dialect,-the English as spoken by he negroes of the Southern States. Indeed this tarnishes the only real illustration to our people of | vhat is meant by a dialect. In Germany, France, ind even in England, these lingual differences are rreat and striking, and marked as with the sharp ratline of latitude and longitude ; and usually ilmost every dialect has its literature. This is not he case on this continent. There is, indeed, even ? the most obtuso ear, a marked difference be? tween the English, as nasally pronounced by a ' lown east Yankee,-as jerked out by the New Ferker or Jersey man,-or as spoken by the holf iivilized hoosier. Virginia again hos her pro ?unciation, differing widely not only from the fore? going, but in many respects also from the more recognized standards of Oxford and Cambridge, riorth Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia, each Igain has its own accent, modes of expression, ind peculiarities of pronunciation. Arkansas and ] Texas likewise lay claim to individuality ; and in? vestigation, we doubt not, will in every case ascer? tain ample cause for these several differences ; whether from descent, contiguity to other tribes md other tongues, climate and other physical j agencies, or commercial and political relations. Wo see here a wide field opened, where there is room for hundreds of laborers. It is only by the I help of such speciil gleaners and regional anti- j quarians and philologists that the magnum opus \ here proposed can ever be accomplished. The negro dialect would seem to be easier of I elaboration. The area is more restricted, and a comparative survey proportionately easier and more feasible. Tho importance of the subject can I scarcely be overestimated This dialect is one of the essential elements of the history of this inter- j eating people, and now that education and civil and political rights menace a levelling process, these philological gems, black diamonds we may | call them, should be rescued, for at the present rate Cliffy and Dinah will soon "talk as good grammar" as their late master and mistress, and "gullah" will be among the things that were. We who have grownup with these negroes, and have J boen accustomed to their linguistic aberrations, are, perhaps, not altogether competent for this philological task,, and we would, therefore, re- j frpectfully suggest that the erudite ladies and gen? tlemen from New England, to whose care and su? pervision the culture of the freedmen is at present I committed all over the South,- should take this matter in hand They unquestionably possess i great many superior qualifications for the work. Knowing nothing either of negro character, ha? bits, or dialect, they approach the subject unbias? sed, and hold themselves open to such impressions as are received through the medium of the several senses. Those are at. once put on paper, and by this means the negro ia allowed to paint his own picture,-write his' own history,-? privilege j which the lion has for so many years coveted, and j whioh has not yet been accorded to him. The Freedmen's Bureau can thus be made 'useful to science and liter?true. We take no little credit to ourselves for the discovery; we must confess we first ?Iirived at it by reasoning a priori, and after? ward had the gratification of seeing it verified hy I '.ho method of induction. Having found that the Bureau only appointed ladies and gentlemen ) superior mental endowments and high literary j abilit>, Wo naturally inf orr cd there must be a rea? son for this. Merely to witness "contracts," ad? just quarrels, furnish rations or medicines, cr teach the young idea of color how to shoot, re-j quires not suoV accomplishments on the -part of the officers of the bureau, or the pedagogio ladies. A higher duty must be theirs, though perhaps I only collateral to tho offices of the ostensible sn gagement; and Eureka, this it ia: to extract tho virgin joice from this exuberantly fertile soil; to give "gullah" io a world that baa hitherto boon deprived of thia rich and mellow, though other? wise, perhaps, somewhat inelegant form of speech. When this branch of the Bureau shall he proper? ly organized, tho officers in charge might be clad with power to send for persons and papers, thus giving their transactions tho proper stamp of of? ficial authority: and if in the exercise of this power they should sond for us, wp would feel in con? science bound to respond truthfully to all the several interrogatories bearing on the question. Wo should tell them that thoymust exorcise groat auricular vigilance if they would catch the nico ?hades of sound. [The FroodmenV Bureau, wo tope, will pardon this not altogether defensible netaphor.] Tho colored bootblack and newsboy, >arbor and bar keeper, the polished [metaphori ul, we do not moon shining] br Uer and the dainty ad/s maid, speak a different language,-aa thoy iccupy a different position in colored society rom tho colored ladies and gentlemen, who, in ither days, were wont to cultivate tho rice lands m Cooper River, or the cotton plantations on tho loa Islands; and these again havo a different vo abulory from tho freedmen of tho middle and ipper Districts of this State. Tho task, it will oon bo found, is far greater and involving moro ibor than had betrat first anticipated; but the ewards in prospect aro of a corresponding mag itudo; and we earnostly hope that the project hus hastily and imperfectly chalked out, may not e allowed to como to naught. THE SEWARD-MOTLE? AFFAIR. "NITED STATES REPRESENTATIVES ABROAD-A SPICY LETTER. ? -? WASHINGTON, February G.-The following ia the Itter sent to the President which induced tho Titing of Mr. SEWARD'S letter to Mr. MOTLEY, and .hieb was brought oat in tho Senate yesterday, at ie instance of Mr. STXSINEH : PARIS, HOTEL MENNEE, October 23, 1866.-Tho resident:-I have travelled a good deal in Eu jpe during the last year, and had occasion to see dm ot hin g of our ministers and consuls in various auntrics. A large majority'of those whom 1 met itu are bitterly hostile to you and your adminis ration, and express that hostility in so opon and (Tensive a manner as to astonish American travel? ers, and to leave a very bad impression on Euro eans who were present. This was particularly rue of those from the New England States^, of hom a large majority of our foreign represeaja ves seem to be composed, and a very mdiffermt at they are, individually and collectively. ? Mr. Motley, Minister at Vienna, docs not pretend ) conceal "bia disgust," aa he styles it, elegantly, t your whole conduct. Having been appointed xclusively by Charles Sumner, he applauds him ad bis revolutionary doctrines, despises American lemocracy, and proclaims loudly that an English obleman is the model of human perfection. There i not in all Europe a more thorough flunkey or a lore un-American functionary. He tells every livelier that Sumner ia entirely justified, and that su have deserted your pledges and principios in minion with Mr. Seward, who, he says, is ''hope isBly degraded." ? At Frankfort, the Consul (Murphy), who ia said > have cleared more than $100,000 through his Bee, declared repeatedly that the threat of his iend, "Jack Chandler," would be made good, ad ought to be, by your impeachment. This ia otorious and a public scandal. The fellow bim slf is ignorant, vulgar and unworthy, and ia one f Chandler's tools. Halo, at Madrid, condemned your course in a lalignant manner to various Americans, and ao id Morris, at Constantinople. Some of my friends who went to Morocco, heard IcMath, at Tangier, rail violently and shamefully gainst you, saying ho was ready to retire from auch a concern." Perry, at Tums, was equally Tensive in his language. There aro many others in tho samo boat, and it time that better men were appointed-mon who ill at least respect the President and the dignity 'his office. Radicalism of the worst sort makes war on you ad your friends under every pretext, and yet tho istruments of that faction ere blatant all over Eu? lpa in condemnation of both. It is a shame and stigma to permit this longer. Mas sachase tts seems to monopolize a lion's lare of the consulates, and Boston bas no leas ian three of the first missions-Messrs. plains, urlingame and Motley. Is no other part of our country to bo considerer! s worthy of notice ? Must Sumner, Butler, Phil? ps, Chandler and the like engross all the honors ir their satellites ? I want nothing at your hands ' any sort; but fit and decent men should be sent jroad, who will not slander the chief Executive of ie Government. The Consul at Geneva ia a common drunkard id a disgrace to the country. When sober, he mses the President in the hearing of everybody, espectable Americana aro very much mortified r the presence of such unworthy persons in placea ' trust and responsibility)! and few like the task of tiing their experience be known, as I have done, here are hurareas who know much more, but refer to remain silent. Most respectfully, GEO. w. MCCRACKEN, of New York. A friend will deliver this note personally. MISCELLANEOUS. KID IxLOYES. LN ASSORTMENT OP "SEAMLESS" KID GLOVES, just received by J. E.
