Mr. BBOOKS argued elaborately against the right of Congressional interference and as? serted that in Tennessee and Missouri there was no more Republicanism than in Egypt.

One of the parties struck at him with ajMGPg shot, we have been informed, but failed to blt hun, and he escaped from their clutches. Afterwards the saloon of Captain Backalan, on the ?corner of Fargett and Wilmington streets was -visited and an effort made to rob Mr. Leopold Levy, a citizen who was in the rc jm. He exploded one or two caps in tho endeavor to Bhoot them, but the pistol flflcd to fire. He then grappled ono of the two and pounded him severely, when the despera? does retreated as precipitately as they had entered. Haleigh Progress, 2&h. INTERESTING TRIAL.-We had quito an interest? ing trial in our town on Friday last. It appearec that an extreme loyalist of Davie County had failed to pay his United States license for the privilege o? distilling, and had also failed to pay the reve? nue on the quantity distilled, and after duo notifi? cation by the United States Collector, bis property was distrained and advertised for sale. On thc day appointed for sale, the Deputy Collector was iniormed by the crowd who had collected that the property should not be sold or removed from the .premises. As most of the crowd were armed anc" .'rinking, the officer thought it prudent to desist finite of the crowd were arrested and brought hen <tnr t'nal, and were bound over to appear at the Twvrt term of the Federal Court. It is a great pit? ?w all the defendants were "Heroes of America,' S it moi/?? a "ice sensation story of outrage tba ??iM have bean dulv clironicled by the Standard Ld other^ paper? o? that ilk, ns evidence of th, rebellons spirit of District No. 2. rene aoua ^ Winston ?Sentinel, TO THE COLORED PEOPLE. Tho torch-light procession of Tuesday night, which was followed by an immense concourse of colored people, assembled in front of Major Gene? ral D. E. SICKLES' quarters, to offer him the com? pliment of a serenade. The band having performed several airs, in response to the loud and repeated CTMB ot 'he assemblage, General SICKLES presented hhxs'df. His appearance was the signal for the most i nthusiastio demonstrations. He stud : "My friends, I thank you for your visit. Al? though unexpected, it is nono the less gratifying. It is your privilego, not mino, to take part as a partisan in the political action of the day ; my duty is to see that every citizen of North and South Carolina has a full and fair opportunity to vote as his judgment and conscience may dictate. This duty I shall endeavor to perform. The colored raco in this country have gained just praiso for their admirable conduct during the war and pond? ing the recent agitation of their civil and political enfranchisement. In my Department, I can truly bear testimony to your patient forbearance. When severely provoked to retaliate cruel acts of violence and humiliation, you have borne yourselves with m.-faltering confidence; tho day of your deliverance was not. far distant, (-'freers.) Let mo enjoin upon you all in thia hour of your success, perse? verance in well doing. You are now citizens of tho Republic. Remember (nat the strength of the nation lies in the virtue, industry, loyalty and courage of its citizens. You muBt try anti vindi? cate tho hopes of your friends and repel the fore? bodings of the sceptical by proving yourselves worthy of the privileges to which jon have been admitted. (Applause.) Whenever any large addi? tion has been made to ino voters of a State, thc PA. IO apprehensions have been expressed that aro now heard with reference to yourselves. Those already enfunchif-ed are easily alarmed at any considerable -chengo in tho establish ~d or? der of things. So fia:, in this eoontrj, expe? rience has shown thai Union, Liberty P :d Tower aro safe in tho hands of those .w!,<> cm ?heir bread by the sweat of their bro1 ."J. (Applause.) None love the land of their b?th more fondly; none will defend it with mere ?oastaney and valor than these whoso labor make up tho tram-of a nation's wealth. (Applause.) So long at the des? tinies of this country aro in tho hands of those whoso homes are made sacred by justice, whoso liberties depend on the courage with which they are maintained-the old flag may defy all enemies whether from within or without. (Greatapplause.) It would be difficult under the most favorable circumstances for any race of men to engage, as yon have now to do, in the most, interesting politi? cal events, witho.it being deeply moved by their importance and novelty. Let roe advise you as a friend, aud as one not without experience in pub? lic affairs, to preserve at all times the utmost mod? ern tion of language, temper and conduct. Avoid everything like violence, impatience or indecorum. Do not give even your adversaries just occasion to complain of the least disrespect shown to thom in your discussions, private or public. And beware of those who would endeavor td"excite animosities between the white and the black races. The prosperity of the South, the welfare of the country are intimately associated with the harmo? ny and good feeling which should exist between the people of both racos at the South. Whatever seriously impairs the interests of one race, must result injuriously to the other, intelligence, cul? ture, capital, land, are not less essential than labor; and yet without labor these can have no solid and enduring foundation. You have already shown your appreciation of these advantages by tho eagerness with which you have employed the op partunicies lately given to you to educate your? selves. It will not be long before the white race in tho South will seo how deeply they aro inter? ested in tho education, industry, thrift and pro- . gross of their colored population. In this mutual dependence lies the security of all. Abondant time and opportunity will be afforded, and ample notice will be given, of all the succes? sive steps to be taken m tho orgnization of tho State Government within my command. It will not be necessary, nor can it be otherwise than in? jurious to yourselves, for you to neglect your regu? lar employment and associations to attend to po? litical affairs. I promise you that, without any such sacrifice on your part, overy man in the Caro? linas, entitled to a voice in the decision of tho groat question to be passed upon under my supervision, sb-vll hive a fair chance to ac' ais part without lot or hindrance from any ont. My friends, I wish , you all good night. (Enthusiastic cheers.) CONGRESS. TUESDAY'S PROCEEDINGS. SENATE.-A joint resolution was passed providing for the appointment of commissioners to determine the justice of the chimu of certain Northern credi? tors to the moneys in tho Citizens' Bank of Lou? isiana raised by the sequestration of said claims by tiie Confederate States, and now placed to tho credit of tho United States Treasury. Ihe bill in? corporating the Lincoln Monumental Association was taken up, amended and passed. A bill was passed to amend the organic act of tho Territory of Colorado. A joint resolution was adopted pro? hibiting tho issue of any Agricultural Colioge huid scrip to any Southern State until such Sta te Bhall have been allowed representation in Congress. Tho BUI fixing the time for the Bankrupt Law to go into effect .was taken up, and, after somo discussion, was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary. Tho Committee on the Judiciary re? ported the House resolution providing for an i adjournment, with an amendment providing for an adjournment on Thursday, sine die. After a long discussion, during which a number of amend? ments were proposed and rejected, a vote wus taken, and the resolution was passed as reported from the Committee-yeas 21, nays 17. It now goes to the Houso for concurrence. The Senate then went into Executive session, and, at its close, adjourned. HOUSE OF KEPBESENTATTVES.-Thc Attorney-Gen? eral was directed to inquire- into the title of the United States to the property lately used as an arsenal at Harper's Ferry. Mr. Holman was re? fused leave to introduce a resolution declaring it to be the judgment of the House that lands and other securities exempt, from State or municipal taxation, should be taxed by Cougress, and in? structing the Committee of Ways and Moans to re? port a bill to equalize taxation. A joint resolution was passed providing for a survey for a ship canal around the rails of the Ohio Iii vcr. Mr. Butler rose to a personal explanation and proceeded to deliver a long invective against Mr. Bingham, whom ho oharged with altering the re? port of his speech delivered a few days ago and pubFshed in the Globe, and alBO with being con? cerned in the mutilation of a diary taken from tho person of Wilkes Booth, which would have estab? lished the innocence of Mrs. Surratt, &c, &c. Mr. Bingham replied to Mr. Butler and emphatically denied the charges made against him. Mr. Butler endeavored to obtain a further healing, but was refused by a very decisive vote. . A resolution was offered directing the appoint? ment of a committee to .investigate the facts in tho case of Mrs. Surratt, but objection 1 oing made, it went over. A bill was passed declaring tho mean? ing of the act relating to property lost in the mili? tary service. A bill was passed in relation to tho compensation of members of Congress. The Sen? ate amendments to the bill increasing tho force in tho Patent Office wero concurred in. Tho House soon after adjourned. POVEBTT ES' THE COUNTET.-Very few of our citi? zens are really aware of the alarming and lamenta? ble state of destitution in which are involved many of our people. As an instance of the suffering which is now being endured, even within our own district, we publish the following item from a re? cent issue of tho Philadelphia Mercury: LIVING OK COEN HUSKS.-Mr. J. J. Knox, a very estimable citizen of Sumter District, South Caro? lina, emploved a, trustworthy neighbor to make personal examination of the destitution in, his vi? cinity, and he reported as follows: "1 have not bean over five miles from homo, and have seen and heard direct from three hundred and sixty-six persons. The most of thom aro now without 'broad, and are actually subsisting on corn husks, and whatever they can got to preserve lifo upon, while there arc others who have ono ov two bushels of corn left yet, but without any means to get more. Some have a horse or two, apd aro try? ing to raise a little crop, but have little or nothing to live upon."-Sumter News. The New York Journal of Commerce argues that i the prospects of increased emigration during tho I present year aro very doubtful, although thc am > val3 thus far aro large. The Gcrmau local govoni . raents or commoners aro two much impoverished ? by tho late war to buy, as formerly, the small tracts r of land owned by the peasants who emigrate. Tho > Prussian Government is also seizing able-bodied 5 maleB, who desiro to leave tho country at Bremen ? and Hamburg. A few days since, cwo steamers ar > rived at New York with the baggage of ninety omi l grants, the owners, all young ineD having been . removed from tho vessels by the Prussian officers, > just as the steamers got under headway. These ; men aro detained upon the claim of tho Pm as jan r Government, that they are liable for militniy sor ' vice to that power. Again, intelligence of the de t pressed condition of all branches of trado in thie , country is being communicated Dy letter to all 3 parts of Europe, and is generally accompanied bj advice that friends wait until they hear bettei tidings. -J-ifft THE FRIVOLITY OF THETIMS., "Tho boards groaned with the delicacies of the season, and when the weight was lessened by the removal of the substantials, the bright thoughts generated by the sparkling wines kept the company m a constant good humor, and it was not until a lato hour that the party was broken up and the merrie crews dispersed." To the Editors af the News. Of what place and people do you think the fore? going was said? Of Borne at carnival time ? Of ."merrie England" secure-un her setf-complivcency, letting the world go round as it may? Of "la? belle France" where the philosophy of life is the oujoyrreat of the hour? Or even of the land of our conquerors, flushed with the triumph of the "nation," and rolling in the wealth created by the causes that made us poor ? Of none of these was it said. Bat will it be be? lieved it was of Charleston, or a portion of Charles? ton in 1867 ? Such is tho fact. I cut it out of a Charleston paper, yours perhaps, a description of some "banquet" here. If the writer (I do not know who) spoke truly, there is scarcely a lino that should not bring sad thoughts and reflections. "Boards groaning with the delicacies of the sea? son" when so many widows and orphans are groan? ing willi want and suffering. "Bright thoughts generated by sparkling.wines" -"the. merrie crew." Ah 1 Messrs. Editors, if the money lavished upon the princely entertainments I have so often seen described by this writer among us, bal been expended in cheap broad and meat and warm clothing and fuel for the sufferers in our midst, how many firesides would have been gladdened, how sweet would have been the incense that would have risen up to Heaven. But, whether tho language of truth or hyper? bole is used, there can bo no question that, as a peoplo, wo have lately occupied a very inconsist? ent attitude. It is universally conceded that so far as private entertainments, dances, etc., aro concerned, we Lave just passed through the gayest winter ever known in Cllifcenton. Not only have there been parties evory evening, but 1 have myself known thc young people to go to three in one night. That is to sar. when wo have just emerged from a devastating war, which has not only impoverished us. so that gaunt famine stalks abroad in Borne sections of our country, but, like the Israelites, "there is scarcely a house in which there is nob one dead," those extraordinary spectacles are pre? sented. To pass by the practical problem of so much entertain with suoh a cry of scarcity of money, I would to address myself strictly to some of tho moral features of tho subject "That aright thoughts should bo generated by sparkling wines" is not sinful, for the Scrip? tures speak of "wine that nuketh glad the heart of man," and the Saviour, at a wedding, converted water into wino. Nor is dancing sinful, oise we must condemn many good persons of the Old Testament. Far, very far would I be from looking with disfavor r.pou tho assembling of tho young together, in this innocent enjo}ment. But the same Scriptures tells us "thero is a time to dance" -implying the converso aa. strongly, there is a time not to dance. But I would not go that far; it is only the excess, the abuse, of which I com? plain. And, taking this view, has the conduct of our people comported with their condition? It is said that NEBO was fiddling while Borne iras burning. In a late day..not a hundred years ago, the prison? ers of the hostile and conciergeries of Paris en? uc ?.cd plays-the guile tine being a favorite-and it is said to have more than onco occurred that the performances were interrupted by tho entrance of the officers to lead out the actors and actresses from-tho-drama to tho'reality. I have sometimes thought that scmo such des? peration as this had seized upon our people, and was at the bottom of so much frivolity in times demanding BO much seriousness. In Joolring back to our recent struggle, do wo not perceive too much of a spirit, if not similar, at least os dangerous os that we have described? Wera we as terribly in earnest as the magnitude of tho cause demanded? or were not, too many of us, wholly engaged as now with the thoughts and the enjoyments of the fleeting moment? In this dark hour of the South, it behooves our people to propitiate, not to exasperate, the Great Ruler of events. It is plain that he is working out a great problem, inscrutable to man. What our fate may be, v.hether the insatiable vengeance which rules tho Badicals is to end in our destruc? tion or their own, Ho con only know. Whether it may not bo His design to destroy thoso who have first boen made mad-or us, for some mysterious design-like thoso which have raised up people and nations and swept them away, with scarcely a vestigo behind. Ho may intend that tho "wrath of man shall praise Him," and by means naturally (to us) full of fear, like tho den of lions and the Airy furnaco, to build us up upon a more suro foundation. Bat whatever may be His design, it is our duty to bow to His will, to beseech Him to avert these calamities, and to conduct ourselves with tho se? riousness duo to groat sufferings. PYM. Disfranchisement for Participation in the Rebellion. The following from tho Richmond Examiner of Tuesday, contains some corrections that apply to South Carolina, as they do to Virginia. Tho-lbilowing ?san extract from the last veto mcsBago of the President : "No one can be registered, according to the original act, * who may be disfranchised for parti? cipation in the rebellion,' a provision which, left undetermined the question as to what amounted to disfranchisement, and whether, without a judi? cial sentence, the act itself produced tnat effect. This Supplemental Bill Buperadds an oath, to be taken by evorv person before his nomo can bo ad? mitted upon the registration that he has 1 not been disfranchised for participation in any rebeli?n or civil war against the United States.' " It thus imposes upon every person tho neces? sity and responsibility of deciding for himself, un? der the peril of puni sm ont by a military commis? sion, if ho makes a mistake, what works disfran? chisement by participation in rebellion, and what amounts to such participation. Almost every man-tho negro us well as tho white-above twen? ty-one years of ago, who was resident in these ten States during tho rebellion, voluntarily or involun? tarily, at some time and iu some way, did partici? pate in resista:, ce to the lawful authority of the general government. The question with tho citi? zen to whom this oath must i e proposed must bo a fearful ono ; for while the Bill does not declare that perjury may bo assigned for such false swear? ing, nor fix any peualty for the offence, wo must not forget that martial law prevails ; that every person is answerable to a militar}' commission, without previous presentmont by a grand jury for any charge that may be made against.him, and that the supreme authority of the military com? mander determines tho question as to what is au offence, and what is to be the measure of punish? ment." This opens a question of the highest interest to our people. We ore persuaded that the President erroneously conetrueB tho law in thc above sen? tences. If, aa tho President soems to think, Congress de? signed to disfranchise all who participated in tho rebellion, tho oath would have been differently framed. Tho a?iant would have been called on to swear that he had not participated in rebellion not that he was not disfranchised for such partici? pation. Disfranchisement is a substantive act. It is the taking away of a legal right theretofore existing, and must be effected by law. lu Bovoral of tho States laws have been passed disfranchising for participation in tho r?bellion. Nowhere can disfranchisement be effected without law. Now, no State law disfranchises any one in Vir? ginia for participation in rebellion. This should end the question ii' the Constitution of tho United States existed, which guarantees to States the con? trol of Suffrage. But under thc now dispensation we have further to ask : Has Congress disfran? chised any citizen for participation in rebellion? We answer yes. Thc 5th and Gth sections of the Sherman Bill de? clares that no person shall bo entitled to vote in any election under tho provisional governments, qr in the elections for a convention, who is exclud? ed from holding office by tho proposed XTVth amendment to tho Constitution-that is to say, " no person, who having previously taken an oath as a mombor of Congress, or as an officer of tho United States, or as a member of any State Legis? lature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support tho Constitution of tho United States, shall liavo engaged in insurrection or re? bellion againt thc same, or given aid and comfort to tho enemies thereof." Those are the only persons disfranchised in Vir? ginia for participating in the rebellion. Wo regard the mistake of tho President on this point, though very excusable, equally manifest. Wo repeat, every citizen of Virginia, of whatever color or previous condition, who is twonty-ouo years of age, may and should bc registered, who was never disfranchised by law for felony, nor dis franchifhctl bv law for participation iu the rebel? lion, and who will ?wear allegiance. And wc do repeal that no man is by law disfran? chised in Virginia for participation in the rebellion, except persons who held Siato offices or Federal offices boforo tho war, and afterwards engaged in rebellion. DEATH BY DROWNING.-We have learned with deep regret of tho untimely death of a son of Dr. W. W. Anderson, of Stateburg. He w.is drowned on Saturday last, on tho plantation of his uncle, Col. Childs.

The deceasod is said to have been an intelligont, smart young lad, of the age ol elevon or twelve years.-Gamier News. THE NEW GERMAN CONSTITUTION. One.year ?go Germany was a kind of geographi? cal abstraction. It required one well skilled in historical, geographical, political, and ethnologi? cal science to give the pretase boundaries of Ger? many. It is otherwise now, Not that all the diffi? cult problems have found- their solution. The work hus been bravely begun. There ls now no Iougnr the unwieldy confederation of thirty-nine petty 6' to?, that had a local habitation an 1 a name, and yet, wo may say; was almost without any political existence. Sadowa has furnished work for the map-makers, ibis time without the aid of NAPOLEON, who has" generally been thought at the hoad of the workmen who were engaged in ' codifying the m ap of Europe." . The following tabular statement will show tho formeif* and the present area and population of Prussia-the bead of the now North German Con? federation. ??... I.-PBUSSIA BEIOBE 1866. Territory.

This new empire (for such it is to all intents and purposes), lias a federal government and local government, the former being superior to the latter. "In this respect," s^ys our four northern exchanges, *'North. Germany is opposed to tho theory of our republicanism, but agrees with our later practice." The legislative federal power is exorcised by a council and a diet; the former being composed of forty-throe members, elected from tho various States. Tho King of Prussia, who is the general? issimo of the confederation, names tho military and naval committees belonging to the council, while the other five committees aro named by the council itself.. The E. of Prussia is likewise the president of the confederation ; and he has tho right to declaro war, conclude peace, make .treaties and send and receive ambassadors in tho name of the confedera? tion. Ee names the chancellor of the confedera? tion who presides over the federal council and opens and closes its sessions. The King convokes and closes the federal diet ; ai&d both tho assem? blies meet each year. The council can sit during the absence of thc diet ; but the same privilege is not extended to the latter during the absence of the former. The diet is elected by universal suffrage ; arni it is to this body that the King of Prussia submits propositions. He also sanctions and publishes the federal laws, and names and discharges the federal employes. "Military execution" is provided when a State fails in its federal obligations; and in case of necessity, the federal power may substitute itself in any State for the local pqwer. The most important feature remaining unno? ticed is in regard to the military organization of the confederation. Ir. the syBtom adopted, every citizen is held to sorvice, without power of sup? plying a substitute. Tim King of Prussia is thc commander-in-chief of the army at all times; he receives the oaths of the troops; and names ?me generals and commanders of fortresses. The other ofiicors are nominated by the Confederate Princes who command the contingents. These aro the main features of the Constitution of the North German Confederation. It has many points in common with the Germany of old ; but it has many superiorities which the other lacked. Before, there were two powerful States in tho con? federation, each of which was filled with jealousy of the other, and both of which labored, intrigued, and legislated each in fear of tho other. Tho prcsont confederation has uo such discord? ant elements. It had homogeneity in religion and population?. Prussia is the only State possessed of considerable greatness ; and, therefore, it has no rivals. In military matters, tho twenty-two States aro as one ; in peace they possess all ihe independence necessary. The citizen of any ono State is a citizen of all others, and has equal rights and privileges everywhere. Tho new confederation has enormous elements of power. It is compact in. form, unitod in senti? ment and religion, liberal in cducationr1 matters and in opinion, and possessed of sufficient sea? board .to constitute it a maritime power. ^Warlike in spirit, perfect in organization, and inspired by Prussia, we BOO no reason ?rhy tho new confedera? tion may not thrive for a hundred centuries. Tho States of South Germany,-Bavaria, "Wur? temberg, Baden and Hesso Darmstadt, complete political nonentities at present, shut in between the three powerful States, Austria, Prussia and Franco, aro weak and helpless,-joalously watched by all throe of their neighbors, and necessarily the sceno of much political intriguo. It is un que > tionably to tho interest of Franco to keep them separate, and in their present isolated condition; if this cannot bc accomplished, to have thom forced into an independent Confederacy; or to let them placo themselves under austrian protection. The one thing to bo prevented by Franco being their alliance, in any form, with Prussia. Yet all the tendencies aro to an accomplishment of tho last named alternative; for oven Bavaria, the. neighbor of Austria, hoi hereditary ally, aud a Catholic power, has Bhown a decided loaning in f ivor of a union with her Northern compatriots. Thia, no doubt, will soon bc brought about. Germany will then bo united, with tho exception of tho south? eastern part cf the territory wliich belongs to Austria; and tho latter power, it will be remem? bered, was excluded from further participation in Gorman affairs by tho treaty" of Prague. Of course such a treaty cannot long remain in force, when it I is opposed to the interests both of sovereign and people. Tho latter naturally v,i\\ very soon desiro a union with the remainder of their countrymen, and tho Emperor of Austria will not long remain satisfied to seo Prussia woar all the honors of re? constructed Germany.
