WASHINGTON, Jane 3.-The amendments of the Senate ?udiciary Committee to the Honse Omnibus Admission bill adds Florida and ex? cludes Alabama. The fondamental condition is that there shall never bo an abridgement of the right of suffrage on account of race and color-: and in the case of Georgia, the nullifica? tion of the first and third sub-divisions of seotion 17 of the fifth article of the con? stitution is required, except the proviso to the 7 first sub-division, that the Legisla ture may he convened within thirty days after the passage of the act by the Governor elect, with the pre? requisite that the State Legislature shall adopt the fourteenth amendment, which fact it is the duty of the President to proclaim within ten day s after the official notification of ita adoption. The Ways and Means Committee have agreed to postpone action on the tariff until tne next session, except special action on some articles. Sugar will not be touched this ses? sion. The whiskey ^tax will not be more than sev? enty-five cents nor Iee? than fifty cents, with a probability of a compromis? at sixty cents. The tax on cigars wiD remain at $5. The aboye statement is gathered from sources deemed certainly reliable. A telegram in the Herald, professing to origi? nate with a person enjoying intimate relations with Chase, representa that Chase would only accept the nomination when the nation waa in utmost ' peri!, and not then st the sacrifice of his honest convictions. He admita that the Radical party and him aelf differ widely, and as the parties are now organized be is with the Democratic. He differs with them only on one point--that of universal man? hood suffrage, but agrees with them on ail other great issues, and says that if elected by that party he would certainly carry out their policy. The deplorable condition of the South? ern States demanda proper congressional con? sideration and also material aid from the Gene? ral Government. - There is no constitutional authority for holding these States in subjec? tion., lt is alike unwise and unjust. He favors enfranchisement and removal of political disabilities from every white man in the South. He thinks freedom and man? hood (inffxage are unquestioned rights, but controverts any other power than the States themselves to confer the right-the general government having no control over the matter. He is opposed to political disabilities, and . proposes general amnesty as a relief, He regards general amnesty as absolutely .ne? cessary, and urges liberal aid to Southern railroads and navigable rivers. He thinks the government should build levees from Cairo to the Gulf. He also urges an early return, to specie payments, and condemns in strong terme the trial of citizens by military commissions during peace. The hope is ex? pressed that if Mr. Johnson reorganizes his Cabined he will appoint a due proportion from the Southern States. Replying to a question. Hr. Chase said Congress had. no authority to abridge the President's pardoning power. The Secretary of War, at the suggestion of the General of in* armies, sends to the House a letter from tho Commander of the First Dis? trict, dated May 15th, concerning the effect of the fourteenth article in the State while un? der provisional government. He supposes the effect would be to make vacant all offices held by persons incompetent under the /amendment, and the number in Vir? ginia would be several thousand, while but a small portion of th eeo vacancies can pos? sibly be filled by persons of ability, and com? petent to take the tost oath. General Schofield ?dds: 1 'Ihave already appointed in Virginia *" nearly five hundred officers, and would have appointed more if qualified persons could have been found. When the amendment is adopted, - a large number of offices must remain vacant until Congress gives some relief" The Printer's Union called on the President, who, among other remarks, said: "I consider it a nobler distinction to wear upon my gar? ments the tinge of the shop, and the dust of the street than all the insignia that may at? tach from victories won on the field, cumbered with crushed and bleeding' humanity. The aristocracy of labor is true Democracy, and to thataristocracyT belong." A white man was killed here las i. night by a negro who escaped. The negroes were very disorderly last night. A youth, named Hanley was terri? bly hacked with razors, shot and lett for dead. The murder reported at noon was also com? mitted with k razor. Several houses were also stoned. The people are much exasperated, and further demonstrations aro threatened to-night. Serious, consequences were apprehended, imbi the people were assured that both the military and the police would prevent armed and unau? thorized' processions. Troops are under arms by order of General Hancock. COKQ&ESSIOKAL FBOCEEDXXGS. IK THE SENATE a bill was introduced reliev? ing certain Georgians from political disabili w ties. A telegraph company from San Francisco to China asked certain privileges. A bill organizing Wyoming Territory was passed. Senator Hendricks moved lo take np a bill making eight hours a day's work in govern? ment shops. Senator Trumbull urged the immediate con? sideration of the Omnibus bill, but without considering either the Senate adjourned. IK THE HOUSE, the Ohio election contested case resulted in ousting Morgan and seating Delano. The latter was sworn in. EesolutioBB complimentary to the memory of ex-President Buchanan, and appointing a committee of seven to attend the funeral, were tabled, several members objecting to the de? claration that (he motives of the deceased were patriotic. The vote stood 73 to 47. Mr. Paine from the Reconstruction Commit? tee reported the Arkansas bill as amended by the Senate, with an amendment. Brooks ob ected, as the Reconstruction Committee had not-ordered the report. The Speaker decided that.the House had control; but the House re? fused to receive the report by a vote of fifty five, to fifty-six. A message reporting a deficiency in the Re? construction appropriation for the First District waa received. The. Lend Committee reported a bill declar? ing the For. jes sup military reservation in Loni?lana open to homestead entry and set Jlement. caution referring ta the death of es? cuchan an was again introduced as ot for oae who bad held such ia eminent station," was .'passed by a vote of eighty to sixteen, and the Speaker app Dinted a committee of seven to attend the funeral. The House then took a recess until seven o'clook. The Trial of Bon. Jefferson Davie. RICHMOND, June 8_The United States Court met this morning, Chief Justice Chase and Judge Underwood presiding. The Chief Jus? tice called the case of Mr. Davis ; whereupon Mr. Anderson, of Mississippi, one of the coun? sel for the defence, read an argument for the postponement of the case until October, which was signed"" by Messrs. Evarts and O'Conor. The Chief Justice then asked if the counsel were ready for trial, independent of this stipu? lation. Governor Wells, for the prosecution, replied that in view of the absence of the District Attorney, whose wife is in a dying condition, the absence of the prisoner, caused by this stipulation, and the absence of Mr. Evarts, who occupied the position of the representative of the Attorney-General, the case could not well proceed. He, therefore, suggested some day in October when the Chief Justice could attend. The counsel for the de? fence moved for a postponement until the next term, which the Chief Justice granted, Baying, at the same time, that had the trial taken place May one year ago, or in the fall, or now, it would make it more convenient for him, as he was ready to try the case. He would, however, attend at the next term if possible. Several wit? nesses, including General B. E. Lee, were re? cognized to appear on the fourth Monday in November, and the prisoner's bail bond .was renewed. * jt The understanding in the court to-day seem? ed to be, that Mr. Davis' trial will, without doubt, take place next term. The Chief Justice in answer to questions of counsel, B&id he would attend at thai time, and remain as long as possibly consistent with his daly in the Supreme Court Captain JbiLii Poe,' Chief of Polios, in view of recent removals from the force by the Mayor* bas written to the general commanding that the integrity of the force be preserved or that he, Poe, be also removed. Judge Meredith, of the Circuit Court, has been summoned to appear to-morrow, before General Granger, and answer to the complaint of allowing foreigners to be naturalized in his court without the proper qualifications. Af7'.lr3i. New Orleans. NFW O ' -LEANS, June 8.-The anxiously look? ed for order of General Buchanan, with refer? ence to elections was promulgated to-day.

To the Editor of the News : * Tux NEWS .of the 28th brought us the ac? count of the Democratic meeting in Charles? ton, and we hail it as an oasis in a desert, or the "shadow of a*great rock in a weary land." In this little Liberia we are politically and al? most phyrically dead, but I hope not alto? gether beyond revival. The roartion at the North and West has made the blood spring into our almost lifeless capillaries, and I hope it will not be long before the oldest city in the State will make her voice echo back well done to the Democracy of Charleston. A united South is all important to sustain our friends at the North, and as we are powerless, let them lay down the platform. I have not met with an individual but who disapproves of the reso? lution endorsing qualified suffrage of the Co? lumbia Convention. The Conservatives at the North are contending for the white man's gov? ernment ; and shall we consent to impose on ourselves an evil which will steep our country in anarchy and blood, and which they are re? jecting themselves ? I cannot believe that the good people of the United States will permit this iniquitous measure to be forced on the people of the South by their malignant ene? mies who seek not only to degrade them, but to crush them for all time to come. Tho admira? ble speech of Mr. Campbell is much approved of here, and it speaks tbe sentiments of our people. ONE OF THE PEOPLE. Democratic Meeting in Williamsburg. The Democratic citizens of Williamsburg District held a meeting at Eingstree on the 1st instant. On motion of W. M. Kinder, Colonel John G. Pressley was called to the chair, and B. C. Logan requested to act as secretary of the meeting. The chairman explained the object of the meeting, and announced it ready for busi? ness. On motion of B. C. Logan, a committee of five, consisting of E. J. Porter, 8. W. Maurice, C. W. Wolfe, John E. Scott and J. A. Salters, was appointed to draft resolutions for the consideration and action of the meeting. The committee retired, and, in a short time, re? ported the following : Resolved, That it is the sense of this meet? ing that the Democratic party of Williamsburg District should be represented m the conven? tion to be held in Columbia, for thr?purpose of electing delegates to the National Dem eratic Convention to be held in New York on the 4th day of July next. Resolved. That it is the sense of this meet ino: that every effort should be used to defeat the Radical par.'y and the principles on which they brought forth their candidates for Posi dent and Vice-President of the United States. Resolved, That it is the sense of this meet? ing that suffrage should be regulated by each State, acting for itself; that this government was framed by white men, and intended to be perpetuated as a white man's government ; aud, therefore, we are totally opposed to negro eui frage, either qualified or otherwise. Resolved, That this meeting appoint four deieg tes, and four alternates, to represent the Democratic party of Williamsburg District in the convention to be held in CoLmbia for the purpose above mentioned. On motion of H. A. Tripp, the above resolu? tions were voted on seriatim, and were unani? mously adopted. On motion of Dr. J. 6. Brockintoo, a < mittee of five, consisting of Br. J. S. Broi ton, J. M. Owens, J. M. Staggers, Junk Scott and J. P. Gamble, was appointe* nominate delegates under the fourth rei tion. The committee made the following non tion s : Colonel James McCutcben, David ? W. J. AI. Lee and Junina E. Scott. Alternat Major J. B. Chandler, N. M. Graham, Dr. I Henry and John ?. Keels. On motion of Judge Wolfe, Resolved. That the proceedings of this n ing be published in the Charleston papers. On motion, the meeting adjourned. JOHN G. PBE88LEY, Chairma B. C. LOGAN, Secretary. PROM WASHINGTON. THE VOTE OF THANKS TO STANTON-SEN. m.IL cr. in eis H ON HIS COUBSE. The Washington correspondent of the B more Gazette, writing under date of Jui says : The Senate, after a protracted discussion day, passed the joint resolution voting thanks of Congress to Edwin M. Stanton, Secretary of War. This may prove to be a of comfort to the contumacious War Mini for having "stuck" when ordered to do s< Senator Sumner, but ne might well excli "eave me from my friends," in view of the cussion which the reeo ution provoked. S< tors Hendricks and Buckalow reviewed course which had been pursued by Stanl and for which Congress ? as called on to j bim a vote of thanks, and they made it p, that the resolution was but a political tr and wa? so understood by its author. T showed that all Stanton had a right to ext was the charity of silence, and m this v several Republican senators did not hesitate concur. Henderson, of Missouri, who has tabbshed a character for honesty and indee dence well worthy the successor of "Old I hon," rasped the friends of the resolution inquiring why it was the thirty-five impeach had to bave a vote every day to stiffen them -why they kept np such a whistling as tl passed the graveyard? On the confirmatioi Gen. Schofield they bad lugged in without i c?dent a preamble declaring Stanton still c rotary of War, and immediately on the heels that came a resolution of thanks, also with Beface. Henderson was very emphatic s style and manner during the debate day, in the latter part of ms speech. ] resolution w?l no doubt be put through 1 House under the ope?-?tion of the previc question, which cate off all debate, bot it i not be sufficiently potent to arrest the verd of the whole country on his contumacious a disgraceful conduct in attempting to holt Cabinet office after his Executive Chief b requested him to vaeate. The resolution thanks is a political trick intended to brid over the odium which attaches to the wh< Radical party in consequence of Stanton's bi ing "stuck" until he was smoked ont a forced to "relinquish'' the War Departmei The time has been when, to receive a vote thanks from Congress, was esteemed a hi compliment, but now it is a compliment ol most questionable character. So it formei was with "brevets" in the military service, t after Stanton had all the mules in the servi breveted horses, a brevet ceased to he regar ed as complimentary. THE ABBI VAL OF THE CHINESE EMBASSY WASHINGTON-CUHIOUB PARTICULARS. Tbe arrival here this afternoon of the Cl nese embassy produced a decided stir arnot our heterogamous population, and tbeunloa mg before the Metropolitan ponce of immen car loads of baggage, mnch of it put np in fa tas tic shapes and labelled with large placan "Chinese Embassy," drew together one gre crowd of enr?e us spectators; yet the scores Chinese moved about with perfect indifferen and busily attended to tbe safe storage of the luggage. * Mr. Burlingame wis soon surroun ed by many of bis old friends and admirer who gave bim a cordial welcome back to tl national capital All expressed their surprii at his having grown so stout upon rice ai rate. This evening he called informally upc Mr. Seward, but expects to pay an official vie very soon. Arrangements will be made tort official presentation to tho President, perbaj. early next week. Mr. Burlingame anticip?t) remaining here about three weeks, when h ; r turns to accept certain hospitalities tendere him in New York and Boston. THE CASE OF MISS VINNIE BEAM-THE LATE! NATIONAL DISGRACE. The Radical Congress, in the ejection froi the capitol at Washington of M?SB Vinnie Bean the sculptor, have perpetrated an act whic for petty meanness and pusillanimous spite i unparalleled in the history of that body. This Miss Ream is very young, of eve girl-like appearance. Her talent in sculptm Having been brought to the attention of Coi gross, she was employed by that body to modi and complete a statue in marble of the "lat lamented Lincoln," and a committee of Coi gross assigned her a room in the basemen wherein to conduct her work; and this was don without her solicitation. There she has sine prosecutedher undertaking; her studio bein( much vi 3 i ted by public men and artists. Sh is represented as a young lady of great ger Heness and modesty, and as highly respected Miss Ream's father resided m Kansas, and wa there the neighbor of Senator Ross, who fo this reason took rooms at Mr. Ream's bous when he reached Washington. During th late impeachment trial tho senator's vote wa a subject of speculation and many rumors Among the things said was that "Vinnie Hean had influenced him to voto for acquitting Mr Johnson." Whether true or not. it was foun< that Miss Ream inclined to the President, ant Mr. Ross voted for him, and that was enough Mr. Bingham undertook the infamous ac of revenge upon this poor girl. He intro duced a resolution ordering the room occu pied by Miss Ream to be fitted up as i prison for Woolley, and the room oppoaiti to be fitted up for a guard-room. These rooms had been lettered A and B in thc morning by order of the "Managers," auc the resolution of Bingham specified them as A and B, when there were no other rooms in the basement thus lettered. Thu resolution waa passed, and Miss Ream had to move out her casts and materials at great inconvenance and with great danger to the model she was pre? paring. After the resolution was adopted, a motion was made ou Friday to reconsider it, pending which a mobt disgraceful debate oc? curred. One General Morgan, of Ohio, tools position as the champion of Miss Ream, and recited the alleged purport of a conversation between her and Julian, of Indiana; whereupon that gentleman got up, gave his version, pro? claiming at itslconclusiou tbat Vinnie Ream or anybody else who gave a different version lied ! No one will be surprised to learn that the man who made this proclamation on the floor of Congress has been publicly cowhided at home by one Colonel Meredith. He richly deserved another application o. the cowskin. Butler the beast was naturally inspired by this exam? ple of blackguard sm and cowardice to make an essay to divide the infamy with Julian. He gloated over this brutal act, declaring that the young lady should not have a dollar tor her work as long as be had anything to do with the Committee on Appropriations, and that the statue was a thing that ought tobe broken, aa it did no honor to Mr. Liu cob or the conn try. All this malice towards a poor girl upon suspicion of an act which she indignantly de? nied. Fit exhibition of manhood and honor for Radical congressmen. American Cotton in India-A Failure. The Gazette of India, of the 28th March, con? tains the official report of tbe Secretary of the Colonial Board of Revenue for the Northwest? ern Provinces of India with regard to the ex? periments made in those provincos in the cul? tivation of American cotton. The British Gov? ernment, anxious to introduce the cultivation of the long etaple American cotton into its In? dian Provinces, bas for several years Bupphed the cotton-growers there with American cotton seed, and used every inducement to encourage them in its culture. Th&oxgect of the English Government was, if possible, to become inde? pendent of American-grown' cotton. The offi? cial report above alluded to, however, shows that the effort bas proved a complete failure so complete as to make any further attempts hopeless. The Secretary states that he is directed by tho "Board of Revenue' to report that "after persistent endeavors to introduce the Dharwar New Orleans cotton seed into this part of the country, continued during Beveral successive years, they are compelled, with much regret, to acknowledge that the attempt has completely failed." For three years the seed had been supplied by government to all who conld be prevailed on to use it, at the same price that the native seed cost; and elaborate instructions as to the manner of cultivation were distributed through tho country by government officials. The Sec? retary accompanies his report with extracts from "the reports of the collectors of a number of districts, every one of them showing most unfavorable results. The most favorable ac? count was from '. Debra Doon," where the col? lector says: "I cannot say the result of the experiment has been very successful." All the other collectors represent the 'nature to have preved an "entire failure." Scharunpore reports an entire failure. Bolur.dchu.hur sets the product per acre of American cotton at sixteen pounds; that of the native cotton at one hundred pounds per acre ! The imported plant is stated to suffer from heavy rain, which would not injure the "coun? try" or native plant. Allyghur reports an 1 'en? tire failure." Kumaon ditto. From Muttra we learn that the cotton from American seed brings no more than that from the native, and it is advised that no more American seed be dis? tributed. Mynpoorie report* that the work? ing of the American seed is too laborious and expensive. In the province of Etweh the seed in one department only germina? ted, and the yield was insignificant. The collector of Agra reports thai no advantage whatever has resulted from the importation of seed from America. Either it does not germi? nate or does not come to maturity, and the yield is insignificant. In Etan it could not stand the rains; in Forbnckabad they proved a total failure; and in Budaon, luorabadad, Bareily, Jaunpore, and Humeerpoor, ditto. In Futtenpore the seed for three years has not succeeded. In some localities it did not ger? minate; in others the plants grew to a fair height but produced no flowers. And so on to the end of the chapter, from twenty-four pro? vinces of the Northwest. It is no wonder that, with the disastrous ac? counts before them, the Board unanimously considered the "costly experiment ' as having failed, and advise its abandonment. They bad steadily persevered up to that time with the trial in the hope thai success in some part of the provinces at least "might lead to the gradu? al spread of an improved description of cot? ton;" but with universal disaster m all pf them, they urge the government to make no further attempt to cultivate American cotton. We suppose tb at these provinces are the best cotton districts, and that the British Govern? ment centred its strongest hopes of success in them. The disappointment could not be more complete. It is olear that the American cotton, as with the American tobacco, can be successfully pro? duced no where oise but in this Southern coun? try. England has been obliged to buy the American cotton for the entire manufacture of some description of her fabrics, while she has found it impossible to work the India cottons in any of them without miring them in some degree with the American long staples. It is true ber machinists have been at work to make machinery suited to the working of the short India cottons. But they have succeeded very partially. Their main hope was in the success* ful culture of the American cottons m India. This is clearly a failure ; and England must still buy American cotton. She cannot possi? bly do without it. _ Spjtrialjlotirfs. ta- THE PBOV08T~'c7)?mr^^ James Goose Creek, St. John's Berkeley and St Stephen's, w?l sit near Monck's Corner (Sportsman's Retreat).

STANT.-In 1847, the great grand principle-of stopping the most excruciating pain in an instant, without employing such dangerous agenta as chloro? form, opium, morphine, a contine, ether, Ac, was first made known in BADWAY'S READY RELIEF. This remedy accomplished this wonderful and de? lightful desideratum in all cases of-external and in? ternal pain. In an instant it afforded relief, the mo? ment it was applied to the parts of the body where inflammation or pain existed-it at once relieved the patient of the most violent and excruciating pangs and throbs of pain, and imparted the delightful sen? sation of ease and comfort. Every kind of pain, whether Rheumatism, Neural? gia, Toothache, Pains in the Chest, Side, Lungs, Stomach, Bowels, Kidneys, Spine, Legs, Arms, Feet, one application was sufficient to kill and extermi? nate the pain. Taken internally, twenty drops to a teaspoonful would cure, and will cure, Asiatic Cholera, Fever and Agne, Chills and Fever, Bilious Cholle, Inflam ma.ionof the Bowels, Cramps, Spasms, Diarrhoea, Dysentery, and every pain that may exist In the in? side of man, woman or child ; Ulis was Rad way'a Ready Relief of 1847, and it is Rad way's Beady Re? lief, greatly improved, in 1868. We then started lt in its mission of relieving the in? firm, pain-stricken, sick, distressed and crippled of all nations throughout the world, and n. w today it is used, patronized and revered as a household ne ces si ty, in the palaces of Sultans, Emperors, Kaimos, Kings, High Priests, Nobles, as well as in the cot? tages of the laboring classes of every nation on the face of the earth. In every war that has taken place within the last twenty years, this remedy bas been used as preventive of malarious and infectious diseases as well as a cure for wounds, stiff jointp, bruises, accidents, and to relieve the soldiers from pjin. Letters from Army Surgeons and distinguished Generals and soldiers in our late war are on file, certifying to the wonderful service of the RAD WAY'S READY RELIEF. It wiU prevent all against attacks of the worst diseases that prevail, as plagues or epidemics, and to those who are seized wiU at once check the disease and cure the patients some tunes with, and at others without remedial assist? ance. This is Rad way's Ready Relief. Persons afflicted with external pains, or rheumatism, neu. ralgia, toothache, cramps, spasms, etc., bathe the parts affected, either by rubbing with the hands or with a sponge dipped in the Br LIFF, and pain will cease to exist. The miserable stuffs scented with tue Oil of Cassia or Peppermint, sold under the names of rain'., etc., are nothing but weak imitations of RAD WAY'S READY RELIEF, sent forth to the world under our old advertisements of 1847, etc Ihey are but imita? tions, and wiU die out in a few months. Their mak? ers, nothing buta ;et of vagrants, street hawkers, and camp followers of side shows to circuses, after the fashion of the '/For Four Cent Man," knowing as much, or rather litUe, about medicine as Barnum's "What ls It?" The doggere advertisements they pay hungry Bohemians to write for them. 1 he ex? istence of these miserable imita'ions of the great and good Ready Relief of Dr. Radway w?l be brief. Oid patrons of Rodway's Ready Belief are daily coming back, and so it wUl ever be. Rsdway's Ready Re? lief will ever stand thc first, the beet, the .heapest and quickest remedy for the instant cure of pam tn the world. RADWAY'S READY RELIEF is sold for fifty cents in bottles holding three times as much as any. twenty-five cent botUe of any other remedy tor the same purpose, and as much as one dollar cf thc Pain EfUers. One bottle will bold out longer and do more good than half a dozen bottles of any other remedy. Sold by Druggists everywhere ot fifty cents per bot? Ue, and ot No. 67 Maiden Lane, N. Y.

In place of a coarse, rustic, flushed face, she had s soft ruby cos piexjor. of almost marble smooth? ness, and instead twenty-three she really appeared but eighteen. Upon inquiry as to the cause OJ so great a change, she plaiily told them that ehe used the CIRCASSIAN BALM, aid considered it an in? valuable acquisition to any lady's toilet. By its use any Lady or GenUemen can improve tbeir pwsccaJ appearance an hundredfold. It is simple in its combination, as Nature herself is simple, yet uneur pap-ed in rts efficacy in drawing impurities tro^ also bealing, cleansing and beautifying the skin and complexion. By its direct action on the cuticle it draws from it aU its impurities, kindly bealing t?? same, and leaving the euiface as Nature intended i should be-clear, soft, smooth and btauMul.
