The Next Congress.
The special Washington correspondent of tho
New York World writes:
Speculation is already rife as to the presiding of?
ficers of the next Congress, for, as Senator Fos?
ter's term of office will expire on the 4th of March,
a new President of the. Senate will have to be
chosen. This latter, however, is a small matter as
-compared with the Speakership of the House.
Speaker Colfax is anxious for re-election, and his
prospects ar? very good. But recently it has been
ascertained that there is an undercurrent against
bini. A number of the leading Radicals are quiet?
ly working in opposition to him, fearing lest he
may not give them the assistance which they will
need to secure tho success of all their projects. "
Thad. Stevens is understood to favor the selec?
tion of a new Speaker, as he feels sorely at being
called to order, a few days sine?, for his remarks
about Mr. Bingham, of Ohio, and the- call being
sustained by Speaker Colfax. He ha?r not named
a candidate for tile Speakership, but it is believed
that he would prefer the election cf some bitter
Radical, otherwise too mild to offer the slightest
opposition to any proposition introduced or en?
dorsed by him. Yet it is not likely that the oppo?
sition to the re-election of Colfax will amount to
much. The present Speaker is intensely Radical,
and cns never refrained to express the most ex?
treme views when such expression might prove ad?
vantageous to bim as a partisan. He will lend all
the aid in bis power to the impeachment of Mr.
Johnson, so soon as he thinks that the majority of
his party favor it.
BLOODY AFFRAY AT FRSDBICKJJUBO, YA.-The
Richmond Dispatch of Monday, has the following
concerning a bloody affray which occurred at
Fredricksburg, on Friday :
On Friday night at a Ball at Goldsby'a Hotel, in
Fredricksburg, a rencontre took place between a
Mr. Marlow, who belongs to thc United States
Burial Corps, and Sergeant Young, of the Twelfth
United States Regulars, in which the latter u Bed |
a revolver, with which he not only shot his antago?
nist but the brothers Mit zeil, of the Shalt spe are
House, of the same town. Marlow was shot ta the
left breast, and though his wound is severe it is
not thought io be dangerous. Adam Mitzell re?
ceived a wound in the abdomen from which it is
feared he w?l die. His brother Michael is onlyk
wound ed in the hand. J
THE AFRICAN MEETING.
Speeches of Gov. Orr and Gen. Scott.
According to previous announcement, a meeting
took place last night at the African Methodist
Church, in Calhoun street (Rev. Mr. Cain's)
Long before the hour appointed, the houao, al?
though large, was crowded with freedmen. Every
available inch ot space was occupied. Hearing
public speakers is still a novelty with our colored
citizens, and they accordingly turn out en masse,
on the least provocation, where there is any
chance of a speech, sermon, lecture, address, or
harangue of any description.
There were in the front Beats, also, a number of J
white persons, mostly Northerners, who doubtless
took this method to testify their respect to the
Governor of the State, whose speech, as was un?
derstood, was to be the chief feature of the even?
ing.
At a quarter before 8 o'clock Generals ROBERT?
SON and SCOTT entered the church, and were wel?
comed with much applause. A few minutes
afterward Governor ORR made his appearance, and
was similarly cheered.
The meeting was opened with prayer by a color?
ed preacher named Everitt.
Parson FRENCH next explained the object of tho
meeting, viz.: That the Governor of South Caro?
lina was to address the colored people this even?
ing-that at some time daring the evening a col?
lection should be taken np to defray the expenses
of the church, etc., etc.
Gov. ORR and Gen. SCOTT then ascended the
stage or pulpit, and after being duly introduced
by the Chairman, Rev. Charles Smalls, a colored
preacher, Gov. OBX said that a year aga, when
passing through this city, he was called on by
some colored men and asked to address their peo?
ple. He declined doing so then for reasons he
deemed sufficient at that time. But having again
been invited to do so, he now availed himself off
the opportunity, and did so with a great deal of
pleasure. He told them that this was not the first
occasion since the great change in the social statu?
of the colored people that he had availed himself
of the opportunity of talking to them; on the con?
trary, he had done BO frequently, and, as he be?
lieved, such addresses had resulted beneficially both
to the white people and the colored. We have, each
of us, high and important duties to perform in our
several stations, which we should strive to fulfil
as men and as Christians. The new relation in
which the colored people find themselves by the
events of the war, has imposed new obligations
upon them. The change in their status has been
a most' extraordinary one. Two years ago they
had no command over the results of their labor;
nor, on the other hand, had they any serious wanta
or cares. Their wants were supplied, for most of j
them at least, kindly ana considerately.
Some of them there may have been-such
is human nature everywhere-who were not
thus kindly cared for. Now, however, he said,
they stood in a position where they had to think,
to ?crt, to care and contrive for themselves.
Those of them who have enjoyed the ad van taget,
of education-who have lived in the city, and have
been oarrounded by intelligent society-are able,
in a measure, to act for themselves, and are now in
a less dependent position than the great majority
of their race who have not enjoyed such advant?
ages. Where, this intelligence does not prevail, wo
find collisions, sufferr g, and, not unfrequently,
crime. But it is dut to the colored people, and
dne to truth and justice, that we should say that
the great bulk of the colored people of South Caro?
lina, since their emancipation, have demeaned
themselves with great propriety./ Unfortunately
the past season has been unfavonrtne. The hus?
bandman, when the result of the year's labor was
gathered, found little in his storehouse, little in
his granary, and little under his cotton shed. A
great many freedmen hence were thrown out of
employment, not from any fault of planter or la?
borer, but solely from inability on the part of the
white man to meet the wants of the latter.
Emigration has been the consequence. A
great many freedmen have left the State.
Ibo Governor remarked that he saw wagon
after wagon leave different parts of the State,
embarking for distant homes, and that he
saw it with regret and sorrow. He do
sires that they should romain here. It is to
the interest ot thc people of South Carolina, he
said, and it is to your interest, that yon should ro?
main here. True, if yon can go where y OTU- labor
will be more remunerative, where you will bettor
your condition, yon do well in going; but guard
against delusive nopes, and see that you listen not
to designing persona, and go on a mere chance.
Yon are now thrown on your own resources. You
have no capital, houses or lands, But t hero are plen
?of white people no better off, Bat even if you had
these, were ia a decree of High Heaven that
you should labor, for it is written, By the sweat of
thy brow shalt thou eat bread. Hence, if you have
land, yon may labor perhaps more Buccessfully, you
may possibly secure the means to enable you to
Indulge in more luxuries-which is the difference,
the world over between the man who has capital
and the man who has not. A father, by industry,
economy, and prudence, may accumulate some
substance, and give his children a sufficiency with?
out any personal exertion on their part. But I have
afton thought it a doubtful kindness to place any
Dne beyond the neoesaity of eolf-ielittaoe-above
the co- non lot of labor.'
In the main, where contracts were made with
the colored people he believed, and where they
aad been weU treated, there bas been but little
?use for complaint, and he hoped that this year
t will be still better, when both races ba vo the
benefit of additional experience, He had no doubt
mat many of the freedmen desired houses, a little
and, and some stock around it. Very well; they
seeded but thrift and economy, and all these would
n time be theirs. Jost so certain os they would
practice these virtues, these comforts would sur?
round them.
In their new rotations to society, be continued,
.t became their duty, when they .saw either a man
jr woman of color not acting ap to the require?
ments of law. divine or human, to discountenance
mob conduct, and see that they are punished for
;heir misdoings. If they gave encouragement,
xtuntenance, or support to such persons, they
vould be doubly guilty: for by doing so, they
ifould also Bet a constant "example of evil before
?heir children. Therefore, by all means, let the
aw be vindicated. It may be harsh, it may be un
ust; if so, represent it to your lawgivers, and it
rrill erelong oe remedied.
The object of law is for the security of fife and
the protection of property. These privileges have
in a large measure already been accorded to the
colored people by the Legislature of South Caron?
ia. Three years ago they were altogether exclud
3d from the Court House ; now they may give tes
imony not only in causes affecting those of their
D wu race or color, but likewise in all o tb ors. The
Legislature has provided that th ev shall be pro?
jected from violence, either from white persons or
colored. In some localities, it is true, the Govern?
or remarked, snob violence bas sometimes been
committed ; but as tho Chief Executive of the
State' be waa in a position to say that, as a whole,
the population of ?oath Carolina, 700,000 people,
jompored very favorably with any other communi?
ty of the same extent. Inno part of the United
States ean less crime be shown by a population so
large ; and although this may not all be true of
some localities or the State, be told them that
even in all these localities there is a growing dis?
position among the white men to give to tho negro
mil protection of life, lib er tv, and of property.
As the Executive of the State, it becomes him to
Bee that no violence, no outrage no injustice of
any kind ie perpetrated on the freedman; to pre?
vent unjust conviction and unjust punishment;
that he nod already bad occasion to interpose bis
official shield, to protect tho colored man from tho
acts of evil-disposed white men.
Their great duty, the Governor continued, was
to work, to practice economy, to be respectful,
honest and truthful; to do their doty to God, who
rules the universe. By doing so they will reach a
degree of elevation never yet reached anywhere by
their race.
They wanted schools-they wanted education,
ait the next session of/the Legislature, if there
should be another session of this body under tho
present auspices, it was his design to recommend
i system of common schools for both races; both
3hould be taxed for this purpose, and whatever of
taxation is collected from the black shall be de?
voted to, the purposes ofilia education, and from
the white for bia. It is a mistake, he said, to
think, as many do, that the intelligent white man
is opposed to the education of the negro. It is 1
not so. To many of the freedmen education is no ?
longer available. Their time is occupied in the 1
pursuits of their daily avocation-they have not -
time for this. Whenever we educate a man, it is
generally conceded, we make him better. He said
that it is his desire that they shall interest them?
selves in the education of their children. Let
tact? be taught, so that they may be able to pro?
tect themselves against the machination i of evil
disposed persons of both colors.
It mav, perhaps, be expected, he continued, that
be should say something of tho political status
and prospects of the negro. This he knew was
trenching on dubious ground, 'liiere is a project
now to be presented to the Legislature of North
Carolina, which is of great importance to their in?
terests. Representation is desirable, not simply
to gratify the ambition of some man who may
want to go to Congress, but in order to h ave our in?
terests fairly and fully represented. Ho illustrated
this by the present iniquitous tax of threo cents
a yound on cotton, which, although it falls largely
on the plantar, roust of necessity be felt still more
by the colored laborer; thia tax will bo altogether
unbearable just BO soon as there shall be any con?
siderable reduction in the price of cotton. This
tax law would not, could not, have been enacted
bad the South been represented.
One of the features of this propra mme is that
/tho Legislature of North Carolina shall call a con
f vention, which shall bo voted for by all male citi?
zens, without distinction of color, provided they
can read and write, or are possessed of $250 worth
of property. This is the proposition up now for
consideration. It has received the approval and
endorsement of leading men from everv Southern
State. Gov. Orr stated that it had his own endors
ation.
If it will secure peaco and quiet, the Governor
said, he was prepared to give the privilege to freed?
men to go to the ballot-box ana vote. Universal
suffrage, ho said, would be of little service to them
ia their present condition. Those of them who
had had the advantages of education and of the
improving influences of city life and society, might,
perhaps, not be altogether unsuitable for such a
.boon, but thc average would not be benefitted. Ile
asked them if the more wealthy of their number
would be willing to confer the elective franchise
upon these seven-tenths of the negro race labor?
ing on tb o plantations? He asked them if they did
not know that 1 he latter were unprepared to exer
eise this privilege ?
The Revolutionary War closed in 1783, and not
until 1808 was the Constitution of South Carolina
altered so as to allow all white men to vote. Prior
to that time none could vote save those who owned
a freehold of fifty acres. Why was it that sol?
diers, who fought through the Revolutionary War,
were excluded from this privilege? Because the
wise men of those times knew that the education
of these men had been neglected during the war,
which had lasted eight years, and they thought it
best that they should wait until they were pro?
perly qualified for the disoharge of this high
duty.
The Governor said that, in his opinion, those
who advised the colored people to a contrary
course counselled them to a pokey that will not re?
dound to their advantage.
* But as regards politics, he thought it was the
same with the colored man as with the white
man-the more he worked, the cloner he attended
to his business, and the more he will find it to be
to his advantage to keep clear of politics. This
was his advice-they could take it or not, as they
thought proper. ' in the remarks he had made
this evening he had followed no particular method,
but had spoken of such things as time and circum?
stances suggested. He was much obliged to them
for their laud attention, and the favorable manner
in which they had received his remarks.
Major-General SCOTT was next introduced, and
said that his Excellency the Governor had touched
on all the subjects of principal interest. He knew
that the Governor had held these views for at least
a year, and that its was his (Gen. SCOTT'S) convic?
tion that he was the friend of bis people-not only
of the white people, but of the whole people. He
desires that equal protection be extended to ail
men. The Governor spoke of having interposed
his official shield to protect the colored people.
Gen. SCOTT said that he bad personal knowledge
that such had been the case where the law was not
fairly or just ly administered.
The prejudices and sup arstitiona of the world
may be called the poetry of the world, argue against
it as much os we may; it is always thus. AU class?
es of society have their prejudices and supersti?
tions; they are even greater here than in other sec?
tions of the country. The white man has grown
up with the prejudice and superstition in favor of
slavery. The colored mon bab acquiesced in it, if
indeed he did not believe in the justice of the insti?
tution; but there has been a great revolution with?
in t he last two years. Already great changes have
taken place. One year ago, no citizen of South
Carolina would have dareel to express such senti?
ments, however much he might have felt them.
Now see what a change, when the Governor of the
State can stand up ana make such a declaration!
Tune alone can effect'a thorough change in the
sentiments of either the white or the colored peo?
ple.
They will now find prominent men, continued
General Scott, everywhere coming forward for
equal rights. They are in favor of giving suffrage
to all wno can read or write, or possess a certain
amount of property. In many States of the North,
where they have never had slavery, this same
qualifying clauso exists. General Scott said that
he agreed with the Governor in thinking that this
should bo enough for the present, at least; but be
would not tell them to stop at this. They must
educate their children, for only thus could they
exiioct to increase their rights, and enlarge their
sphere of i nun o ncc.
The great question of this country, he then said,
is its material interest. It becomes every one,
white or black, to develop the resources of the
State. In prosperous countries there is no occa?
sion for law. Only in densely populated districts,
in the large cities, is there an abundance of crime,
[n the rural districts you scarcely ever hear of
crimes, and the law is all hut unknown. In largo
cities, men live by preying upon the property of
:heir neighbors.
There would now be perfect peace and harmony
je tween ?be races in this State, he remarked, but
for the drought and otherwise unfavorable season,
rhe people of this State last year went to work
rrith a unanimity that could not be expected-was
lot expected. Most of the men who said that the
freedman would not work in his new state, relieved
Crom control, have been compelled to acknowledge
?hat they have been wrong. The freedmen did go
a work, and many of them reaped rich rewards
'or their labor. Others did not. A drought, and
in otherwise unfavorable season, hindered. He
T opod, however,' that there will be more abundant
?arveats this year.
He next came to speak of the emigration of the
reedmen, the restlessness of men. and natural de?
lire to find an El Dorado where they can live in
sase and luxury without labor. But their true
jolioy, he believed, was to remain. Would they
iko Land, let them get the money first. Industry,
sconomy, and a d?dire to accomplish that object
aere, will be folly equal to it. Let them make every
a (To rt to compass this end, and you will see thou?
sands of colored people the owners of land in this
State. One race of men cannot prosper without
?he other, where the two are living together. AU
irast either prosper alike or aU must sink and bo
lestroyed together.
Here the General closed his remarks amid tho
cud oheering of his audience. Thc bags were
landed round, and cries from different parts of
rho house for Judge EPPINO, brought out the
Quited States Marshal of this city, whose address,
?owever, we did not hear, as we left the meeting

[SPECIAL C0EBE8P0NDENCE OF THE DAILY NEWS.]
THE LAST DAYS OF THE SESSION.
WASHINGTON, February ll.-But twenty-one days
remain to tho Thirty-ninth Congress, and only
nineteen of those can be considered working days.
10 wouder poor old STEVENS is maddened with
?he non-success of his reconstructive schemes,
when it is realized that this whole session is notti?
ng, if not reconstructive. Tariff; tax, and gene?
ral appropriation bilis have aU gone by default, to
make way for the abortive efforts of the Radicals
to agree upon some method of disposing of the
South, and now, at this eleventh hour of the
council, even their chief has to abandon Iiis
crotchets and plead with the rank and file of his
party to agree upon something-anything-only
that it may be a policy to place before the North
is meet finite of their long and embittered con?
troversy,
There was a rumor last night that a compromise
lad been effected between STEVENS, BINGHAM and
SANES, whereby they were to support a general
consolidation of all their schemes and crotchets,
ind pre sent the incomprehensible mix to the
sense of the House to-day. STEVENS was to lead
)ff with the stronger clauses of his military bill
[n this BANES is to dovetail such sections of his
Saturday's biU UB referred to sending Commission?
ers into? tho South to institute new State govern
11 eu ta through tho operation of popular conven?
ions, and BINGHAM, acting as general direc?
tor of this legislative pot pouri, is to be
lUowed to gratify his vanity by wielding
,he baton of Iiis judicial mind, over the whole
iroblem, whenever the galleries are full enough to
nduco bim to moke such a display of his his?
trionic powers. It is not impossible nor im?
probable that such a compromise has been ar?
ranged. That, or any other of the multitudinous
Depositions offered during the weary and profit
ess length of this Congress, might liavo been
igreed upon with equal harmony during tho early
yceks of the session, had the three rival aspirants
?o tho leadership been content to commune to?
gether, and waive their individual ambitions. But
?hoy did not until this late day-too late, in my
udgment, for anything to come of it. Unless thc
compromise takes form, is passed in each House
?fore the 23d inst., the Radical game must admit
i decisive defeat. After the latter dato, less than
ron days elapsing until the close of the session,
:ho President may, constitutionally, pocket aU
Bills which he finds no reason to sanction. It is
not at aU likely, that even should tho Hcuse suc
rre.d in passing the new BUI within the next four
jr fivo days, the Benate, hot encumbered with the
jag of the 1 'previous question," will give it any
less than a week's discussion, at tho end of which
Ibo last day of grace has expired, and "Old
THAD.," divested of his robes and panoply of office
as the high priest of Restoration and Reconstruc?
tion, or whatever else pertains to the Radical creed
or ritual, will paBS out from under the shadow of
thc dome, a stricken, disappointed man.
THE JUDICIARY IMPEACHERS DEFEATING THEIB OWN
ENDS.
The Judiciary Committee had before them the
witnesses, this morning, in the interest of impeach?
ment. Who they are, no one knows save that
mysterious committoc and its agents., who boast
that they cun, and do, circle the Continent round
in tho importation of witnesses and depositions
having bearing upon this case and tho assassina?
tion complicity of JEFFEnsoN DAVIS. It can bo no
vory satisfactory vaunt in the tatter instance, how?
ever, as one of their most momentous witnesses,
Mr. SANDFOBD CANOVEB (alias half-a-dozcn equaUy
respectable cognomens) was this morning handed
over to the tender mercies of a jury, with an in?
junction by the Court that can scarcely result oth
cr\v?80 than bia conviction for the subornation of
perjury in the very case referred to, By the way,
the Judiciary Committee begin to fear that Provi?
dence has interposed the wrath and fatality of the
elements to despoil them of their best and chiefest
evidence in making up the case against Mr. DAVIS.
The gunboat Svoatora, with JOHN SUBBATT on
board, now some twelve days over doe, has not
been heard of since she coaled at Lisbon, and ?
the Navy Department, with admirable eqna- j
nimity, admit that the craft in question waa?|
a crazy old tub, whose foundering at sea
could rerrolt in no very material loss to the mari?
time strength of the republic. Should euch indeed
be the caae, and the onus of taking yet another
man's lifo, as an offering for that unfathomable
plot of assassination, be happily taken from ns by
the All-wise Euler of the winda and floods, the
Ri di cab: or at least that implacable junto of the
Judiciary, will never cease to rail it the vicissitude
that has defrauded them of weaving another tisane
in the mantle of guilt with which they are pre?
pared to cloak Mr. DAVIS. And until this wanting,
link in the chain of evidence, upon which it is de?
igned to convict DAVIS of direct connivance in the
assassination of LINCOLN is dag np, either by the
resurrection of the now apparently lost SUBBATT,
or through the apprehension of another CONUVEB,
be sura that the captive at Fortress Monroe will
not be allowed beyond the postern which now de?
bars bis way to the world and his own.
WASHINGTON A SDNIATUIVK FASTS.
I declare to yon, candidly, that something of
the Parisian style of doing things, both as
regards moral and soriftl effects, is now
in vogue in Washington. Fashionable oracles
Bay that there never was such a whirl
in the circles of the beau nvmde, aa is noticeable
aow-a-days. AU the gaudiness and flash that was
the ron in Mistress LTNCO LK'S time, is now sn- j
premsiy eschewed, and quite the contrary prevails.
Magnificence, toiih an abdilylo maintain it, ia now
the principal disedera tum among the leaders of the
present g ai ti es, and among all bat a very few, the
exaction in this regard ia not rendered to the in?
vestigation of society without a deal of .embarrass?
ment, and not unfreqnently an utter failure to
come up to so rigorous a requirement, But in the
main the snobbery of the hoar is pretty thorough?
ly and solidly sustained by the unexceptionably
long purses of Senators REVERDY JOHNSON, MOB
SAX .and SPBAGCE, and Congressmen HOOPES and
DODGE, besides a host of local people, very well to
do in affairs temporal, and ambitions to keep np
Ri th th? scale of hospitality pat forth by the more
iistinguished personages alluded to. The fame
md scandal glowing ont of all these brilliant
lashes of fashion and folly has had the effect
jf importing avery fast crowd of social idlers
Crom Now Tork and., adjacent cities,- so that,
ivliat with its over extraordinary assumption
rf the frivolities of the season, Washington is
sompletely metamorphosed, by the introduction of |
in additional element of dissipation and reckless -
ieee. The gallerias of Congress are crowded the
whole day through with an anray of womanhood td
iie number of a thousand or twp, costumed as for
i ball, and so charmingly vivacious in action, so
totteringly attended by aistingue cavaliers, that it
s hard to believe that the event of the hoar is not.
be broadest of comedies, and that those grave,
lagacious looking men op the stape beneath are
lot the lay figures of a, scone of exaggerated so?
rority, to make way for another with heightened
md sparkling effects. In fact, you continually ez
>ect the tinkle of the bell, and the grand flourish
if trumpets that announce the l)ajld. "The
Black CrooV would not be inappropriate, and.
udgiug by the indecendei which are daily prae
iced in the House, and which the fair occupants
if the galleries gaze upon and hear with undis
urbed equanimity, I fancy no protest would bo
ifforedto the substitution. VIDEX.
