WASHIJ?GTOX, Jane 18.-In tho Senate, j*
Mr. Harris presented a petition of seven j J
Sew York banks, asking an extension of
time on the tax on circulation; which was
referred to tho Financo Committee. The
President, in response to a resolution of
the Senate, transmitted a communication
from the acting Secretary of the Interior
to that body, respecting the transactions
for colonization, transportation, ?Sec., of
negroes. The report was made March 7.
1864, showing that upward? of $33,000 bad
been expended; which was augmented by
a supplemental report to $37,891. Tho ru?
pert further says the Act of 18G2, nndor t c
which this was done, was subsequently re- j fi
pealed, and no other measure of a similar ?
character has since been passed by Con- ' 1
Kress.
In the House, Mr. Stevens offered a joint
resolution, proposed an amendment to the
Constitution, giving Congress the power
to lay an export dutv on cotton; he refused
to .allow debate, and pressed the measure
to a vote, hoping to get it passed by a
two-thirds vote. The resolution was re?
jected-yeas 59, nays Cl.

A FENIAN VIEW.-A Mr. MeBrido !
thus makes a slap at tho Government i
for prosecuting him as a.Feuinn :
"I embraced the earliest possible i

able me to leave my bed, and vol un- ?
gSfcfc rily. went into court and gavo bail '
for my appearance lo answer to the j
grave criminal charge-prepared by
a United States officer-of loving the
land I was boru in!"
And that is the very offence for !
which thousands of Mr. McBride's '
countrymen have done their utmost i
to punish Southern men. What a :
difference it makes when "your bull
gores my ox!"
SIXTY-ONE AND NOW.-There were
only s\v persons in Memphis, in

Poor huir?an nature! It is no moro
frail in Memphis than elsewhere, we
t?9T
" foHowing extract* xs'from*
Washington letter to the ' New York
Times, signed R., '(Mr. Bayraood;)
It is in relation to the respective po?
sitions of the President and the Be*
construction Cornrcitteo:
But one point of difference remains.
The President insists that the South*
ern State*, being States in tho Union,
are ' 'entitled to representation in
Congress," upon only one condition,
viz: that they present themselves in
an attitude of loyalty, ?nd in the per?
sons of loyal representatives. This
condition is imposed by the. Consti?
tution itself, and is +o be enforced by
Congress, under the authority of the
Constitution, which expressly assigns
to each House the right to decide
upon the "elections, returns and
qualifications of its own members;"
ind, under this clause, Congress may
best, t>y an oath, or in any other way,
the loyalty of the members who may
present themselves for admission to
seats. This is thePresident's view of
the question of representation. That
ot Congress {or rather of the Recon?
struction Committee) differs from it
in denying the right of State? lately in
rebe?'on to reprcsenUilion ai ad, except
upon conditions to be prescribed by
Congress at its discretion. It asserts
over these States plenary, absolute,
unrestricted power. . An? it proposes
to assert this power by requiring from
these States assent to certain amend?
ments of the Constitution, as the
condition of being admitted to repre?
sentation in Congress. Theoretically,
this differnoe between the President
ind Congress is radical. It touches
me principles which lie at the founds
ion of the Government. Tho com?
mittee have embodied it in a bill,
which is now pending in -the House.
Cf passed, as it probably will be, by
ioth Houses, it goes to the President
for his signature. I hear members
expressing the hope that he will sign
t-that, as Congress has surrendered
io much, he will surrender this for the
lake of harmony.
They forget that, in a matter of fun
lamentai principle, neither ho nor
my other man in his position, could
possibly sanction, by his signature,
vhat he believes to be a distinct and
:lear departure from the express r<>
pii re mei: ts of the Constitution.
To do so, would be to sacrifice cou
.istency, conscience and character U
i desire for harmony; and this, Pre
lident Johnston, certainly, is not
ikely to do. If the bill is sent ti
lim, it will, beyond all question, b<
?eturoed, with his objections. Pos
libly it may be passed, notwithstand
ng his objections; but this renews th?
conflict, divides the Union party anc
he country, places tho President, o
?ecessity, in an attitude of opposi
ion, aud introduces, with the fal
?anvass, an abstract issne, upon whicl
inion candidates, who deny the righ
>f representation, cannot possibly
fain any new strength, and are quit
ikely to lose some of that they nav>
urea dy.
It seems to me that, under thee
iirenmstances, the only way to secur
?armony, if sentiment cannot be es
)ected, is to avoid the issue al toge
her. It is not necessary, for an;
tactical purpose, that it should b
uade. So far as tho admission c
combers from the Southern States i
oncerued, the result will not b
.Hooted by it. Without denying c
asserting their right to represent?
ion. Congress can admit or exclud
heir representatives by its own a<
ion. The Constitution gives it th:
authority in explicit terms. Thc Pr?
ident has ncvor claimed any righi
o intervene in its decision. lu h
innual message, he expressly deolan
hat, it is for Congress alone to pn
lounce upon the admission of men
>ers. "lt is for you, fellow-citizei
if the Senate, and for you, fellox
itizeiis of the House of Represent
ives, to judge, for yourselves, of tl
(lections, returns and qualificatioi
>f yonr own memhers." Nomemh
rom any Southern State can con
nto Congress until he is ruted in.
THK FENIANS.-The army of tl
irish republic has not eutirely di
.?anded yet. They seem to have be<
.einforced at Buffalo, and it is thong

iovernment orders have been i

The Canadians are greatly frightc
?d at the recent action of the Hon
>f Representatives in regard to t
neutrality laws, and were in a st:
)f excitement respecting a pitch
nattle to which the Fenian Gene
Burns has challenged the Briti
Colonel Lowery.
Malone is entirely deserted by t
Fenians. They have abandoned t
?xpedition and returned to iii

A row took place among a party
Fenians on the Hudson River Ri

On Thursday lost, several interest?
ing reports were made to Congress
from the Committees. We condense
from our exchanges :
TEZ SEW AE??? BILL.
Mr. Scheu ck, from the G . m mi tte e
an Military Affairs, reported substan?
tially the bill organizing the army,
which makes the army to consist of
five regiments of artillery, six of cav?
alry and fifty bf infantry. Ten of
the infantry regiments are to be com?
posed ot veteran reserves and eight
of the colored troops. Officers and
enlisted men of volunteers are made
eligible to appointment as officers of
new regiments, and it provides for
the abolition of the provost marshal's
bureau. The remaining provisions
are substantially as in the House bill
lately rejected. It is bebe ved the
present lull may ba acceptable to the
House.
AMENDMENT TO BANKING Binn.
Mr. Hooper, from the House Com?
mittee on Banking, reported several
amendments to the National Banking j
and Currency Act. The twenty-first
section is so amended as to make a
reduction of. ten per cent, in the cir?
culation of all banks which have a
capital exceeding $300.000; and to
limit the eire ulutioa of any single
bank to $1,000,000. Section thirty
two is amended so as to require ail
banks situated id the places mention?
ed in section thirty-one (except New
York, Philadelphia and Boston) to
have an agency in those cities which
shall redeem their own bills and the
bills of banks for which thej sre re?
demption agents. Section forty-one
is amended so as to reduce the tax ou
circulation to one-quarter of one per
cent, each half year, and to strike off
tho tax on crpital. Several other im?
portant ame idments arc made.
THE NAVY.
The Senate passed the bill to de
fine the number and regulate the ap- j
pcintment of officers in the navy. It :
creates the office of admiral, with j
one vioo-admiral, ten rear admirals, ;
twenty-five commodores, fifty cap- ?
tains, ninety commanders, etc. The !
admirar? pay Ls fixed at S10,000 a 1
year. Mr. Fessenden took oceasiou
to say that he was tired of hore wor?
ship, and should vote against croat- !
iug the grade of admiral for Farra- ,
gut, or that of general for Grant.
BCBEAT; OF INSURANCE.
lu the House, a Representative |
from Pennsylvania introduced a bill |
for the creation of a national bureau
of insurance! The present "so-called"
Congress are determined that, so fur ,
os they are concerned, nothing shall
be left undone toward utterly chang- !
ing our Government from one of :
limited and well-defined powers to a
grand, consolidated, central despot?
ism, whoso powers shall bo limited '
only by the will of an irresponsible
majority. They have already usurped
most of tho important and multifa?
rious powers, which wero wisely left
by the Constitution to the several j
?States, or to the people themselves, |
and now they are preparing to usurp
yet another.
AUSTRIAN moors.
The correspondence between Mr. !
Motley, American Minister at Vienna, 1
and Count Mensdorff, Austrian Minis- j
ter for Foreign Affairs, relative to the ,
forwarding of troops to Maximilian, j
in Mexico, was laid before Congress. '
Minister Motley remarks that the time \
seems to have arrived when the posi- ;
tion of the United States Govern- :
ment in relation to Mexico should j
fraukly and distinctly be made known I
to the Imperial Royal Government
and to all others whom it may directly
concern. Ho is, accordingly, in
structed to state that the United
States sincerely desire that Austria
m,iy find it just and expedient to come
upon tho ground of non-interven?
tion in Mexico, which is maintained
by the United States, and to which
they have invited France. They could I
not but regard, as a matter of serious
concern, the despatch of any troops
from Austria for Mexico, while the
subject he was thus directed to pre?
sent to the Austrian Government re
mains under consideration. Count j
Mensdorff, on May 30, returns, in
answer, that, in consequence of the
above-mentioned consideration, the
necessary measures have been taken
to suspend the departure of the new- '
ly-enlisted volunteers for Mexico.
RADICAL PEBFTDY.-It is stated that !
a witness mimed Campbell has in
formed reliable parties in Now Yolk
that the evidence of himself and
others before the military commis?
sion, which tried the conspira;or-,
relative to Jefferson Davis' complicity
in the assassination plot, was false, and
that one Conover got np the testimony
to obtain the reward; that it was all
done under assumed uames; and fur?
ther, that one of the parties, said to
be Conover, had run away, to pre?
vent being arrested. Campbell now
claims xLat his evidence before the
House Judi? ' ry Committee, w hich is
investigating tho charges of Davis'
complicity in thc assassination plot,
exposed the swindle and knocked tho
scheme into atoms, thus satisfying
tho Committee that the evidence to
connect Davis, Clay and Sanders
w ith the assassination was bogus; and
that the Con mittee would, no doubt,
report accordingly. Most of the wit?
nesses have testified under assumed
namos, Campbell included; but the
latter has shown up one of tho most
rascally schemes that has come to
light during or since the war. He
claim? the credit of exposing it.
[Special to New York World
Radical lUU?wpreacTif ?t loa of Sont h.
era Sentiment.
The Chicago Times, of tho 16th,
publishes a letter frota a converted
abolitionist, residing in Vicksburg,
Miss., the larger portion of which wc
copy, as follows:
Before coming South, T was a
staunch believer iu all thone ridicu?
lous reports gotten up by unprinci?
pled politicians, in regard to the dis?
loyalty of the Southern people, oud I
openly urged the rigid policy that is
urged bv Stevens, Sumner & Co.
But in justice to a bravo and noble
Sople, I will say that I have utterly
led to discover this much talked-of
treason. On the contrary, I have
found a universal desire for pcs ce
and union. I confess that on arriv?
ing here, I cherished all the preju?
dices of a true radical toward those
down-trodden people, but my opinion
has undergone an entire change, and
I erm now fully convinced of the gross
wrongs that have been heaped apon
them by the unmerciful party now in
power. I hope this unjust treatment
of a brave but fallen foe may cease
forever-that the reports gotten up
by political demagogues, who em?
ploy their pens in fabricating false?
hoods of the deepest dye, nj ay no
longer deceive the Northern mind
concerning affairs in the Southern
States. They ere all false-only in?
tended to continue tho dominant
party in power.
It is tho great desire of the South?
ern people to bury the dark deeds ol
tho past four vears and meet the
Northern people with renewed love.
With this feeling existing in their
bosoms, is it not a burning shamt
that they aro daily subjected to th(
most galling insults from a party whr
would gladly see them deprived oi
every vestige of freedom? I asli
tho Northern people, how ir? il
possible that a people, after under
going all tho horrors of a wai
of plunder, should lend their air
to a Government which seek-, to de
grade and enslave them? It is ni
impossibility, aud, if persist? ii in
will, before long, create an undying
hatred between the two sections. Le
any other course bo pursued, and i
kiud. brotherly feeling will spring u]
a* once.
The expressions of hatred and det i
revenge that daily ascend from th
halls of Congress to high. Heavei
only tend to increase thc wounds n
the nation. In the name of God
then, let those who represent th
people in our National Legislatur
cease their persecutions and tur:
their attention to tho development o
the resources of our vast country
Remove the scourges that now oj
press the sunny South, and her ?los?
lated lields would be made to blossoi
as the rose.
Could Mr. Stevens, or some of hi
disciples, have attended a mass mee
iug here, a short timeago, inendorst
ment of tho policy pursued by Rn
sident Johnson, 1 think they woul
be less abusive of the South in th
future. The speeches made were b
Southern orators to a Southern ai
dience. I failed to hear ono wor
that breathed the spirit of disloyalty
