[FROM OUK OWN CORRESPONDENT.] COLUMBIA, February 29. , Business in both branches of the General Assembly, to-day, though at first somewhat re? tarded by the differences on the election of judge, was brisk, and there was an evident willingness on the part of most of the members to do a fair day's work. SEDATE.-THE JUDGESHIP QUARREL. A message from the Hons? reruslng to concur lu tue Senate amendment to go Into an election for judge, on Friday uext, was read In the Senate this morning. Wlmbush said he was in favor of Indefinitely postponing rhe whole matter. Culbin thought lt should not be indefinitely nostponcd, and Friday would be a goo.1 elsy for nie election, a* by that time the Genial Assembly could cool down and behave decently, providing .they kept sober. Johnson-"Does tho gr atientan mean to insinuate that the legislators ?vere not sober at the last election ?" Corbin-"I don't meau any? thing of the sort; I ouly want them to keep .-o ber." Swal'B Introduced a substitute to go into an election at l P. M., to-day, which, on a cull of the nyes and nays, wan rejected. The Senate then Insisted on Its original amendment, for Friduv, and sent word thereof to tne Uouse. The lutter body, a'ter rt scuding the action of the former, appointed a committee of conference, which was met by asimilar committee on the part of the Senate. Arter consultation they agreed to go int^r an election to-morrow, at 2.30 P. M., and so reported back to their respective bodies, who adopted their report, after some little sparring. It ls sall that the fr?en is of Mr. Earl?, finding him too heavy a load, will nominate General McGowan to-murrow. THE RESOLUTION TO RESTRICT DEBATE caine up In the Senate to-dnv.

A Splendid Pageant in Versailles-Thc Realization of Bknuircjc'.i Dream The Unification of Germany. [Correspondence of the Euston Journal.] VKKSAILI.ES, January 19 The ceremony, or rather pageant, yesterday. In Versailles, merits preservation In Immortal fame, ami 'tis a pity Germany has no poet worthy Hie tas?. The ?lay was a strange mixture of dump, old, and wann sunshine, * the rain occasionally weeping altillo over the heroic ?lead, und then :ae ?au cussing away the tears, as un? worthy or so grand an occasion. Toward lu o'i lock a very brilliant throne beran 'o assembler in the palace yams, and increased steadily in bril Haney and volume until the stroke of 12, when tue Klug, preceded by guards and outriders, drove furiously to the door or the Sallo des G laces. Entering tue courtyard from lb? Itu? de Reser? voirs about ll o'clock, I found drawn up tn line the King's body guard, taken from all Illeben r?giments o? the army, and glittering like a rain? bow in the hundred colors which were so strong? ly contrasted together. Thronging past them were thc invited guests of higher rank, hastily returning the salutations of hundreds or hands from .every direction, which embodied with the accustomed servility the expression of their hum? bleness. Tue Bavarian, Saxou aud Wurtembarg officers who had been distinguished by the pre? sentation ol irders were Very numerous, and, although very different tu type from Ene now su well known Prussian, would still compare very favorably wita him. The Bavarians were especially brilliant in their bright .blue uniforms and .shining helmets, and many were men or most majestic presence. Tue Wurtemburgers were wretchedly dressed-hardly a single officer even attempting at elegance. The Saxons were, tis usual, au RtU In a pearance, and were easily distinguished, aside from their uniforms, by their Jaunty carriage and mellow accent. lt was evident thal all the officers of distinction, rrom ult sections of the army, had left their posts to assist at Hits ceremony. The tall gigantic men of the Garde corps, stalkiug about like ghosts in their white uniforms; the dark-haired, short^ial wart Brandenburgers: the real Berliners, with spectacles on nose qpd creases under the arm for book-carrying; the strapping cavalryman, with the iron cross at hl3 bi east; and the slender youth, with long huir combed back under his casuue, a d sword buckled on his thighs; all hur? ried* forward to the hall, where the greatest Prus? sian ceremony of modern limes was to occur. Presently the guests began to arrive pell-mell. There was no attempt at gi .ry of equipages, as tn campaigning lt ls difficult to obtain. Moltke came in a post carriage showing that it ?tail undertaken recent Journeys; Bismarck ia a little cal?che, hardly large enough to hold him; the Crown Prince in lils- usual very modes: carriage, ami dozens of officers were compelled to make their entree through a rain, which suddenly visited us, in full toilet, on foot. Wagons or all kinds were used. Half a dozen barons would dash In in an omnibus, which they had happily discovered; and thc immortal furniture van, which had such a (jolly role ai the time the delegation from the Reichstag presented the address to King winiam, again came Into plav. Great precautions seemed to have been taken ror the safety of the King. There were even lanrtwelirmen wandering care less!y about In the crowd, with their guns held aa a huntsman holds his when he hears the deer breaking cover. How did th: Prussians know h -w far French fanaticism mtght go? Large masses of troops were disposed On the Avenue de Pari- and the Place d'Armes about ll o'clock und to ward 12 the King len. the Prelec ture aud proceeded leisurely through the line or soldiers, who saluted him with deafening shouts of "Hurrah for the German Emperor^." Arrived at the chateau gate, the royal carriage drove rap? idly through ths seething mass of soldiers, strang? ers and ?Villau Germans, and alighting as the cuatcpu clock struck the hoar of noon, entered the Sidle des Glaces by the grand staircase, along which were arrayed, two and two. the guaid composed of picked men rrom the various regi? men is. in the middle or the grand hall, and with Hs back to the windows which upsn on the park, a grand altar was erected. Upon ? this altar, which was gracefully decorated, lighted candles were placed,and ut each side stood three-pastors, clothed lu thc sombre habiliments of their order, and as serliug the supportor the church to the new Em? pire. Further down the hall was another and smaller altar, and Jn front ot this were arranged the standards or all the regiments of the third army. Between'the two altars, also, were ranged Bavarians and other soldiers. In iront of ihe principal altar were several soldiers who had in times past or in the recent campaign receive I the iron cross, and two of theta lind their heads bound up, and showed other marks of recent wounds. I On the platform, at the other end or thc g tilery, there were many soldiers stationed as the stand i ard beaters. The King, preceded by trie marshal or his household and rite court marshal, thu Counts of I'uckler and Perponcher, and followed I by his brothers, Prince' i.eorgc or Saxony, the reigning Duke of Saxc-Coburg, and the majority of the hereditary Princes. Besides the-e.. as they rook their places In front of tho grand altar, were also Hie Crown Pr nee, Pi ince Charles, ol Prussia, the King's brother, and Grand Master of the Order of St. John of Jerusalem; the Grand Dukes or .Saxe-Weiroor, Oldctiburg and Haden, tho Dui.eof Saxe-Melwgcn, the l'uko ot Saxe-ATtenhurg. Princes Luitpold and otho of Bavaria, Prluc; Wu? llara and nuki; Eugene of Wurteinburg, Leopold of I Hohenzollern, the Duke of Holstein, and many others. The aged King, bOll-Oprlght, and faun Mm? to time gazing wini an almo:t child-like cu? riosity upon the-scene b.'fore him. listened in? tently to the sermon which one of the division preachers delivered with much grace and elo? quence. Tuc sermon touched upon the historic and r.-llgious character of the ceremony now lu progress, ami elucidated its mysterious lufluence on Hie hearts or the Herman nation. It was a. splendid tribute as weil to the new subject or ado? ration, the venerado hero soldier, and the King was deeply aifected by lt. Bismarck ahd Mobke, meantime, one on each side or the platform, winked sleepily and wicked? ly, and s-emel inwardly much amused at this paraje md feathers, c-enerai Blumenthal, who was also near at hand,- w:th the commanding generals, and officers or all grades grouped around him, was grimly sl.ent, and seemed to consider ihe whole thing a wa-te or time. In long row?, down each side or the gallery, were anthe distinguished military and civil person? ages. Prussian an I loreign, of which Versailles boasts to-day. England was represented by her co.ii missioner. General Be mchamp Walker, ann Atneilca had a repr?sentai ive of her army pres? ent in the person of Brigadier General Durr, cf lin nols, formerly of Grant's staff. Thc sermon finished, a general buzz or congrat? ulation was just springing up In the grand hall when the King suddemy advanced to the plat lorm, aud there surrounded by thc standard bearers of thc First Guard regiment, he pronounc? ed his addi ess to the Princes, In which he declared his intention of accepting the Impvrlul German crown. After, with fal erlog voice, he had finish? ed his vow, Bismarck advanced tranquilly to read the proclamation toihe German people. This was the culmination of thc war. Hie wbjcjt or thc crafty man who now hel l the proclamation In lils mind's. The unification of. the German people lin ier thc rulo of ono man was accomplished. No wonder such a gigantic task lias made a dip? lomat already ripe lu years ?O-J? as ol.l as bis master. : After thc reading of thc proclamation Ahe Grand Duke of Bailen (w.hnfieoiueil tOnhave been Adopted as lieux ex maOtffix o.i most of these occasions.) bailed the King as Emperor of G;-r many. A "three times t!ir..-e.'' which sent etiquette to the foul fleud, uni woke tiie echoes winch had been lying perdu for two centuries, answered, and the Crown Prince hastened to embrace his lather and to affectionately grasp Ins hand. His example waa followed by all he mern bets of tue royalTuinilj and all the princes and dukes present. When the ceremony was finished there were t- ars on thc obi King's face, and many r>r the iookers on were visibly moved. Amid the waving or standards. Hugs which had been lu all the early battles ?r Hie present war, aud Hie echoes or thc national hymn and triumphal, marches, thc brilliant assembly broke up, and fil? tered away in Its hundreds of carriages, splendl f and shabby, to the duty of eating the dinner in cele? bration of "orders' day."

Uemurkuble Speech. \ In the United States Senate, on Wednesday last, the subject under consideration being the jolut resolution of the Legislature of Indiana with? drawing its assent to the ratification or thc tlf teenth amendment to the constitution, Mr. Blair said : . Mr. President. The senator from Indiana, (Mr. Morton,) with his usual ability, which marks him us the leader of the administration parry ou this floor-lhere bel?g many of the oid leaders of the Republicans who cmiuot be claimed fornicad minis: rat lon-lus opened thc discussl >n ol ques? tions which 1 regard us of paramount importance to the country. These are Hie quos!ions involved in mc reconstruction ac.s of Congie s. The Re? publican party, after carrying a Presidential elec iio.li upon the declaration or the Chicago platform, that negro suiiiuge was entirely a matter within Hie control of the Slates; had at thc eu-liing ses? sion of Congress forced the principle upou the country in the lift eolith amendment. A proposi? tion to,SUbmit thc question t<? Pic State Legisla? tures thereafter to be elected WUK voted down. Thc Senators and representatives from the States of Missouri, Kansas, Michigan, New Yolk and Ohio, voted for that amendment, although Hie ' people of those states had, by immense majori? ties, ranging from yO,ooo to?o.ooo, rejected negro suU'rage at the elec lon just preceding. Tho Legislatures throughout the country, elected prior to the submission of the amendment, railfl-idlt without regard to the protests of their constitu? ents. If amendments could be adopted us the liueenth had been, against thc wish of the great mass of the people, we might boon have one to make the government monarchical and the presi? dent or the Senate an Officer for life. This might easily be accomplished through Hie Instramcu talky of thc carpet bag States.. Upon Hie argu? ment now made use of, we would have uo right to protest against such a proceeding, nor to aV tempt to expose the perfidy by which the people bau beeu betrayed, for we would be called revo lutionlsts.ir we did. The argument of the sena? tor from Wisconsin (Mr. Carpenter,) the other day, upon the uueousUtulionality of the test oath, was a vindication of the Democratic position ou that question. Mr. Morton asked whether the Bemocratio party, lu the last Presidential election, did not take issue squarely that the reconstruction acts were null and void and ought to be disregarded, and If thev were not beaten on that. Mr. Blair thought they did, and he also thought the only reason they were beaten was because some or them wanted to dodge. Those acts were void because Congress undertook to milkt pun? ishment outside of the constitution.' After the thirteenth amendment had been secured by the votes of the carpet-ban States, Congress had gone to work to disqualify,"without a trial or convic? tion, Sne-hairor the white citizens of that section. Such a punishment, being in the nature of a bill of attainder, was prohibited by the constitution. Now, ir the crime'committed by the S.mihern meti iu going into thc rebellion deserved punish? ment, they simula have been punished aceurdlug to the constitution. That was the only way in which we could punish their crime without com? muting on our part ns great a crime-the crime ol destroying our own government and over? throwing our uwu constitution. Slr, in over? throwing our constitution, lu violating its sacred guarantees, we committed the same crime with which we had charged the rebels of the South, and of which they undoubtedly had been guilty. That was my view of the case, and believing that these actH of Congress were unconstitution? al, null and void, I believe that tho President ol the Uulted States, who was sworn to maintain Hie constitution, ought not to allow it to bo trampled under root: that your conscience, slr, and the conscience or the majority In these two houses Should uot dictate to the President what he should' do In a case of this kimi. He had lils own con? science to keep clear and spotless, he had sworn au oath hlmseir, and I remember right well that lt was not the Democratic convention which sat m New York two years ago that first gave utterance to tills doctrine, that the President or the United State3 was bound by his oath to maintain the con s:ttution, and not to allow it to be violated in any way or hy anybody, neither bj Congr-.'ss nor by his own act nor by the act ot any one else. And this construction or the constitution, so manlfe-tly true, so rar from being revolutionary, ls demonstrated by recent events to be essential to secure the people In the enjoyment or their rights, and protect them from usurpation by Con? gress, the strongest and least responsible and most dangerous department ortho government. -We have seen this body not only denying repre? sentation to the people of eleven States, but foist? ing governments npon those States, and putting Its own creatures into the halls of congress as representatives of those. States, merely to strengthen the hands of the dominant party. Tims reinforced, lt wa) enabled to override the President's veto, and to withdraw from the courts all power to revise Its action. Coercing thc President to execute its behests by the fear of impeachment:, it.-, power has been unlimited. In this way it has carried out reconstruction acts and constitutional amendments, and Intends to perpetuate Ita power In defiance of the popular will. Tue danger which now menaces the liberties or the people could never have occurred ir by reus? ing to execute Its revolutionary programme tne peuple could have been called on to decide be? tween the Congress and the President. There would have been no delay by adjourning the ques? tion over for the popular nmpirage In the settle? ment of the questions at ]ssne, and the only dif? ference wonld be th?t the questions would have been fairly presented io and decided by tue pro? per tribunal, with no possible danger to the pub? lic peace In the meantime. This view proceeds upon and accords with the theory that the people-not tho Congress, or the President, or the courts-are to govern. Radical? ism proceeds upon the reverse of this. None of the measures of reconstruction, so-called, would have been adopted if they had been submitted^o thc people In tuts manner. They have been forced in, serf af fm,- by fraud, by denying persist? ently that lt was the purpose to impose such measnres npon the country, and using the power obtained by such denials to press upon the coun? try the very measures disavowed before the peo? ple. The constitutional amendments have been obtained by coercion in the South, and in defiance of tho known will or the people of the North. This, slr, is simply and without any concealment my views or the theory or our government. That Congress has been usurping thc powers which be? long to the President und to the other co-ordinate branches or the g ivernment, I have not a particle or doubt. The overwhelming majority obtained ' by the Republicans In Congress durlug Hie rebel? lion and afterward", by btln/lng unau'lmnz-d persons into Congress to Increase that majority, has amt them headlong upou their career; amt they have been and are grasping at every power which was placed by our ancestors In the bands of the President and the courts.' Our ratlters de? fined arid divided the powers of the government, to prevent au power being grasped and concen? trated In the hands of uuy one or the different branches of government. I believe that the reck? less legislation or which the Republican party have been guilty are flagitious violations of the constitution. Now, au election ls not, valid unless lt ls superintended by the bayonets of the regular army. Oar army moves wherever there ls an election. They no longer make war upon the camps of the enemies or the government, hut they make war upon thc political opponents or the ;ulministration, sud charge upon tue ballot-boxes ind the polls. Mr. President, 1 was perfectly well aware that this practice, although it commenced at the South, , would not end there. The party In power com? menced using thc bayonet to set up the carpet jaggers in the Southern States, In thc recon? structed States. Although those States were at peace, and desired peace more than any other partorour country, still they were not allowed io hold an election without the presence of thc umy. I kuew very well ?ut when the Repuoll :an party had aecustomedthe peop'e of this coan ry to hold elections uuder tho superintendence JI military officers and armed troops lt would not ?ic a great while beiore the "political necessity " ff the party would extend that. practice into the Northern States; and from having originated m [he South, in thubo States which liad Aieen In re? bellion, it has recently gone imo*the States .viilch furnished the most powerful aid and the largest number of men to overthrow the re? bellion. Mr. Morton. I ask Mid senator whether he re? gards the fifteenth amendment as having been idupted, and as . ow being a part ol the iuuda. mental law of the land ? Mr. Blair. I should think the gentleman ought io have got. my opinion or the Ufteenth amend? ment by this time. [Laughter.] 1 thluk that thc rai ideation of my own State, for Instance, was In legal form, although i lint ratiiicatiou was obtain? ed by thu most Infamous perfidy. General Gra-it canted the State of Missouri by twenty-five thou? sand majority, and at tile mme election the negro suffrage ameu anent to the constitution was voted iluwa by thiity thousand majority, dud not one hal of the peuple ur Missouri were allowed to vote. The majority In the State of Missouri against that mir ndiueni was knowu io the senators who fat upon mis dQOfjMid the representatives who sur lu the other house to be probably two-thirds of the entire population or the Mate; and yet. without M ny ?ort or consideration or regard tor the will of that immense and overwhelming majority, the Bcuaiors and representatives of thc State and the members of the Legislature hurried to give effect and vitality to Hus m teen h nmoudmeut. The very gentlemen who claim that me ballot Is necessary to protect the negro, who attach such imnienselmporuincc to the ballot, when the ballot has been exercised by their own constitu? ents adverse to their wishes and party interests, disregard it as if lt were no more than waste pa? per. That shows the real opinion of those gen tlemen in regard to the suffrage. How much pro? tection did tuc suffrage afford the people of Mis souri, Ohio, Kansas, Michigan, New York, Con? necticut, and the other Northern Slates also, that voted by immense luajoi liles against negro suf? frage, against the peril ty and misrepresentation ol their representatives In Congress and thc Stale Legislatures which hos saddled them with the fifteenth amendment, and which the senator from Indiana well says became a "political ne? cessity" to his party at this crisis ? I have enumerated already other States, and I do not wish tu call the roll again to show the gentleman bum Indiana what my opinion or the udoption ot the llf centh amendment ls. I do not controvert the fart that even i he fraud which was successiully practiced tn his own State has been placed beyoud the reach ol any other cof rectlon than the rebuke administered by the peo? ple in the election of a Democratic Legislature, , whose resolutions are now under consideration, placing Its perpetrators in the pillory of pubi c opinion, and depriving us or the senator's ser? vices as Minister to the Court of St James. This act has probably reached a pulut wh-relt cannot now, according to the rules of law, be Investi? gated; but I wish to bo understood os saying that t he people of this country have a right to hold those who have perpetrated these infamies to re? sponsibility, some have already received their punishment lu Indiana, mid the sound of retribu? tion has reached and startled others. Mr. Morton. The senator will allow me to say that lilsauswcr is not explicit fils argument is that eenuin Stales Improperly ratified ii; but the question was whether he regards the adoption of tne amendment as complete, and die amendmeut ai being now a part of the law or the laud ? Mr. Bialr. 1 shall endeavor to be suillcietitly explicit. I do regard lt as complete. I do regard lt as a part of-the law of the land. I have never held any other doctrine in regard to lt. On rae ut ncr hand, 1 did not and du not now regard the reconstruction measures passed by Congress as any part of the la iv of tue land, and If 1 had been in a position iff power where I was called to act upou those so called laws, I should have acted out my cou viet ions, let the consequences have been what they might. I never did believe that they were constituuoual. I think now, although th. se laws have done their work in subverting the legal governments or the Som hern States, yet there ls a perfectly constitutional mode by which this could ue repaired ir we had au Kxucuilve who regarded Che duties imposed on him by his office, lt is inly'necessary now to withdraw the army from the South, where lt ts employed In driving voters 'rom the polls and carrying the elections against i majority of ihe legal voters In those States, and Che people will resume their rightful authority. This would bc the way lu which I would carry mt the "Brodhead letter," of which so much has seen said. The suggestion it contains that "the irmv should be compelled to undo Its usnrpa .lons" and "disperse the c-irpet-bag govern? ments," which has created such clamor, would ie accomplished In a perfectly peaceful manner, n strict accorda'ace with the duty of the Prest lent under the constitution, by the simple act or fflthirawlug the soldiers or the United States 'rom thc South; the carpetbag governments would then quietly disperse themselves with the sooty they have already secured, and the people ivould be at peace. Tims, by the application of che Executive power, and In strict accordance frith his swum duty, the restoration or the right ff self-government might be promptly and com? pletely accomplished.
