Congressional Proceedings.
WASHINGTON, January 25. -In the Senate,
tho bill enlarging the powers of tho Freed?
men's Bureau was passed.
The House adopted a resolution instruct?
ing thc Committee on thc District of Co?
lumbia to report a hill excluding from the
right of suffragA parties in this District
who were voluntarily in service i:i the late
Confederacy.
The discussion of the Constitutional
basis of representa tier amendment was
resumed. During the debate, Mr. Bing?
ham, who is a member of the Reconstruc?
tion Committee, said it had under consider?
ation another amendment to tho Consti?
tution, protecting tho rights of all persons,
white or blaok, which had not heretofore
been enforced owing to tho want of power
in Congress.
Messrs. Strausso, of Pennsylvania, and
Nicholson, of Delaware, favored the admis?
sion of Southern Representatives, to parti?
cipate in a debate so much concerning their
interest.
WASHINGTON, January 2(>. -In thc Senate,
Mr. Howe, of Wisconsin, called up his joint
resolution for the appointment of Provi?
sional Governors in tho Southern States,
and made a lengthy speech advocating it.
He replied, in thc course of his remarks,
to the recent speech of Mr. Doolittle, and
denied that thc latter had authority for
saying that his (Howe's) resolution was
opposed to Lincoln and Johnson's restora?
tion ]K>licy.
The Houdc rosmned thc consideration of
the constitutional basis of representation
amendment. Mr. Harding, of Kentucky,
and Mr. Wright, of New Jersey, during
the debate on the subject, spoke in favor of
the admission of Southern Representatives.
They could sec no necessity for a constitu?
tional amendment, which was designed,
they said, as a piece of party management
of the Republicans to secure the suffrage
of the negroes. Thc House will roto on
the question next Tuesday.
WASHINGTON, January 27.-The House of
Representatives consumed the day in
8peech-maki?g, the radicals insisting upon
additional guarantees from thc South lie
fore the admission of its Representatives.
The Washington correspondent of
the Baltimore Sun, writing under date
of January 25th, bays the Republi?
cans manifest more confidence in the
favorable disposition of the President
towards their pending measures, than
they have done at any time since the
first day of the session. Then Con?
gress was a unit, and so it is now.
There is not the slightest indication
of any breach in the party in either
House. They vote in solid column
on every party measure, as was shown
yesterday.
This does not look as if they ap?
prehended any rupture with the Pre?
sident. The Democrats, on the other
hand, are prematurely jubilant over
an expected issue between the Repub?
licans and the President, and point to
some of their reported utterances as
evidence that be will resist tho radical
tendencies of Congress. Somebody
is to be disappointed before long.
An accurate estimate has been made
of the conservative strength in the
Senate, and the result is that there
are not votes enough to sustain the
President's veto of any party mea?
sure. The Senate has. a clear two
thirds power for the passage of any
constitutional amendments, and the
same riding over the President's veto.
This was proved by the test votes
yesterday. But it is more accurately
ascertained by a close canvass.
The unqualified negro suffrage bill
may, therefore, become a law, not?
withstanding that members of the
House voted against recommitment,
in the hope that the veto power would
arrest it.
While the Senate requires a two
thirds majority for its purpc3es, it is
nile to suppose that it will admit
another set of Senators, who would
turn the scale against Lliem. Ten?
nessee is as far from representation
in the Senate now as at any time.
RESUMPTION OF SPECIE PAYMENTS.
It is all very well for Congress to
support the Secretary of the Treasu?
ry in his financial propositions, for
there is but little doubt the Secretary
has more knowledge of finance than
all Congress put together. But it is
not the Secretary alone who is man?
aging the business of a resumption of
specie payments. He is aided by the
gold brokers and stock jobbers of
Wall street, who are endeavoring to
manipulate the measure so as to make
it useful to them in their money
speculations. Some want resumption
in one day or two days. Others say
one week or two weeks. Others,
again, ono month or two months.
All these propositions as to time are
equally absurd. It took us four
years to accumulate the burdensome
debt under which our people labor.
It will require double that time to
get rid of it. It is easier to get into
debt than out of it. ?And some years
must elapse before we can restore our
currency and financial position gene?
rally to the condition they were in
before the war. X,ew York lierai'/.

How TO BREATHE.-There is one
rule to be observed in taking exercise
by walking-the very best form in
which it can ho taken by the young
and able-bodied of all ages-and that
is, never to allow the action of respi?
ration to be curried on through the
mouth. The nasal passages are clearly
t^e medium , through which respira?
tion was, by our Creator, designed to
be carried on. "God breathed into
man's nostrils the breath of life,"
previous to his becoming a living
creature. The diff?re noe in the ex?
haustion of strength hy a long walk
with the month firmly closed, and
respiration carried on through the
nostrils instead of the mouth, is in?
conceivable to those who have never
tried the experiment. Indeed, this
mischievous and really unnatural
habit of currying on thc work of res
spiration and expiration through the
mouth, instead of through the nasal
passages, is the true origin of almost
all the diseases of the throat and
lungs, as bronchitis, congestion,
asthma, and even consumption itself.
That excessive perspiration to which
sonic individuals arc so liable in their
sleep, which is so weakening to the
body, is solely the effect of such
persons sleeping with their mouths
unclosed. And the same unpleasant
and exhaustive results arise to the
animal system from walking with the
mouth open, instead of, when not
engaged in conversation, preserving
the lips in a state of firm but quiet
compression.
As the heat and velocity of the
blood through thc lungs depends
almost entirely upon the quantity of
the atmospheric air inhaled with each
inspiration, and it is unavoidable
that it should be taken in, in volume,
by thc mouth, while it can only be
supplied in moderate quantities and
just in sufficient proportion to servo
the purpose of a healthy respiratory
action, while supplied through the
nostrils, it is clear that the body must
be much lighter and cooler, and the
breathing much freer and easier,
when the latter course rather than the
former is the one adopted. Children
ought never to be allowed to stand or
walk with their mouths open; for,
I besides the vacant appearance it gives
to the countenance, it is the certain
precursor of coughs aud sore throats.
ANCIENT TYPOS.-The Lebanon
(Tenn.) Register says that one of its
"jours," W. L. Barry, has worked at
the "case" sixty-seven years, and
another, "NV. V. Tunstall, has "fol?
lowed copy" fifty-five years. When
j death reads the last "proof sheet"
for these cid "typos, he should mark
"errors" with a lenient fey1", and
when their "forms" are "worked off"
they should have a "free pass" to
that "office" where there is no
"jeffing" for "rule and figure work,"
and "fat takes" are "hung on the
hook," where the "galleys" are
"proved" by the "foreman" and
"corrected" by the "assistant," the
"manuscript" all good, "subs" and
"sorts" plenty, and where S and ?
never "run short." They have
made many *? *? and seen many * * in
their lime, and perhaps have used
i the f and "shooting-stick" to "close'
|an argument; but their "copy" is
j about "up," their "cases empty," and
i but little is left now but to "measure'
their "strings."
CHOP OF MINNESOTA.-A St. Paul
correspondent, in a recent letter tc
the New York Herald, gives a vers
gratifving statement regarding thc
past year's crop generally in Minne*

i The wheat yield is said to be unpre
j cedented, averaging 27 bushels to th?
j acre, and tho entire crop being esti
I mated at 12,01)0,000 bushels, which ii
.18 bushels to each inhabitant, man

THE EDITORIAL TREAD-MJLL.-The
Home Journal thus describes the
editor's burdens:
"It is one of the hardships of our
profession that its working wheels
brains and heart-are not allowed to
lag for sickness, or tc stop for calami?
ty or sorrow. The judge may adjourn
his court, the school and the work?
shop may close shutters, the mourner
may veil his features, and turn friend
and stranger from the door; but tho
journalist must forget before to-mor?
row the sorrows of to-day, must write
gaily and freshly as a newsmonger on
thc trifle of the hour, whatever bur?
den has been laid upon the same hour
by Providence, or Iiis brains as a man.
It sometimes tries and mocks as tho
world that reads what is thus written
woidd never dream of. Thc public
looks upon the editor's labors as the
Indian did upon the man that was
cutting hay. He finally gave as his
opinion that it was 'easy to see the
white man mow.' "
WORTHY OF ALL PRAISE.-A Wash?
ington telegram says that Gen. Dela
field, Superintendent of thc Military
Academy at West Point, insists that
upon tho guns which were captured
from thc Confederates and sent to tho
Academy, no inscription, shall bc

trophies of war. All honor to the
soldier who, in these days, thinks so
justly, and dares to act so well.

MR. PRENTICE'S OPINION ON NEGRO
SUFFRAGE.-In reference to tho suf?
frage question, our own view is, after
the maturest reflection upon the sub?
ject, not only that Congress has no
power over the question whatever,
but that under no circumstances, and
upon no conditions, should the elec?
tive franchise be given by a State to
the negro race in this country.

TEST OATH.-If Southern rebels
were as dishonest as Northern Repub?
licans, they would take the test oath
at once. Thc leading Republicans,

of it which they did not and would
not obey. So was it with Chase.

NEW YOEK, January 27.- The (cotton
market is steadv, with sales of 2.300"bales
at 47@48e. Gold 99j.
RICHMOND, January 25.-There is nothing
of especial interest "since our last weekly
report. No event of importance to the
commercial world has taken place, (?old
has been advancing and retreating a little.
To-day it stands in New York at 39.1. Here,
the buying rato is 38i; selling 40. " Ameri?
can silver-buying, 34"; selling 3G. Mexican
dollars-par with gold.
Money is very scarce herc. In New York,
it is quoted easy at 5 per cent, for best se?
curities on call, while some balances arc
loaned at 4. Commercial p&per is discount?
ed at from 7f??8 per cent*, for best; second
rate. 8@10; and inferior. 12@15. The Bank
of England rate is now 8 per cent.- the rate
being put up to cheek the growing spirit of
speculation and prevent the exportation of
gold.
Lato accounts from the South are much
more favorable as to the present condition
of money affairs. Tho supply of colton in
the country is much larger than had been
anticipated. The stock on baud in Now
Orleans, at the beginning of the year, was
not much short of that previous to the war,
having accumulated to tho extent of sc,ooo
hales. This unexpected supply gives our
fellow-citizens of tile South somewhat the
advantage of ourselves in thc replenishing
of our lately exhausted coffers. Those sup?
plies have hoon tho accumulations during
the war-thc limited means and tho dan?
gers of exportation having kept the ship?
ments much under thc production; so that,
in face of Government seizures and de?
struction by burning, tho stock remaining
is larger than was supposed.
Commercial circulars and prices current
are already speculating as to thc amount
of the crops of cotton, sugar and tobacco
ibo ensuing year. These calculations must
bi> vague, lt is impossible to foretell what
will he thc result of the new system of
labor. Discussions have been going on as
to the policy of making a limited crop of
thc staple articles, and cultivating an
unusually large proportion of tho necessa?
ries of life. Those who favor this, contend
that a heavy export duty will restrict tho
exportation of tho staples very mu rh, and
if tho crops are much beyond thc ronsump
tion of this country, the price will be re?
duced, while the planter will have to buy
food for man and beast. They urge the
importance of being sure of enough food
first, as a great advantage, while; a half
ero]) of cotton will likely bring as much
aggregate money as a whole crop.
