this morning, but ore in better spi?
rits at noon. The Senate wont into
secret session at half-past ten, but
previously, on motiou of Sherman,
made arrangements to prevent de?
monstrations to-morrow.
In the Houso, the regular calls for
bills and resolutions are progressing.
Tho Reconstruction Committee has
prepared an omnibus bill, admitting
all tho States on tho basis of the Ar?
kansas bill. It is their intention to
introduce it this afternoon, and push
it through at once.
A shrewd politician, just from a
tbur of tho New England States, rep?
resents tho tide as setting strongly
for Haucock.
In tho House, a joint resolution of
tho Ohio Legislature, protesting
against tho Reconstruction Acts, ana
instructing tho Senators and request?
ing tho Representatives to vote
against snch laws, was referred to the
Reconstruction Committee. A reso?
lution directing the Committee on
Treatment of Union Soldiers to iu
quiro into propositions from the
Confederates for their relief, was
tabled-75 to 41. A resolution to
adjourn from tho 16th to the 25th,
passed-GS to 67. This recess is for
tho Chicago Convention. A bill ex?
tending tho charter of the city of
Washington passed. Thad. Stevens
introduced the following:
Whereas the people of North Ca?
rolina, South Carolina, Georgia and
Alabama havo, in pursuance of tho
provisions of an Act on titled "Au
Act for the more efficient government
of the rebel States," passed March
2, 1807, and tho Acts supplementary
thereto, framed Constitutions of
Stato Governments, which are repub?
lican in form, and have adopted said
Constitutions by large majorities of
tho votes cast at the elections held
for tho ratification or rejectiou of
the same; thereforo, ho it enacted,
that tho States of North Carolina,
South Carolina, Louisiana, Georgia
and Alabama shall bo entitled and
admitted to ropresontation in Con?
gress as States of tho Union, when
tho Legislatures of said States re?
spectively shall have duly ratified the
amendment to tho Constitution of
the United States, proposed bj* the
thiaty-rwth Congress and known as
articlo lourteen, upon the following
fundamental conditions: 1. That the
Constitutions of said States shall
never be so amended or changed as
to deprivo any citizeu or class of
citizens of tho United States of the
right to vote who aro now cutitled to
vote by said Constitutions respect?
ively, except for such crimes as are
now felonies at common law, whereof
they have boen duly convicted; and
no person shall ever be held to ser?
vice or labor as a punishment for
crime in said States, except by pub?
lic officers charged with tho custody
of convicts by tho laws thereof. 2.
That if the day fixed for the meeting
of tho Legislatures of said States by
the Constitution thorcof shall have
passed before the passago of this Act,
said Lcgisluturo may bo convened
within thirty days after the passago
of this Act by the Presiilont of the
Convention which framed the Consti?
tution of said State. 3. That the
first section of this Act shall take ef?
fect when the President of the United
States shall officially proclaim tho
due ratification by the Legislatures
of said States, respectively, of article
fourteen of tho amendment to the
Constitution of tho United States,
proposed by tho thirty-ninth Con?
gress.
This bill was made tho special order
for Wednesday, and to bo continued :
from day to day until disposed of.
The bill reported from tho same com?
mittee, removing disability from some
200 citi/.ena of Noith Carolina, passed
8'.) to 23-being over two-thirds re-j
quired for such legislation. Stevens, j
with some disgust, in reply to a ro
mark from the Speaker, that probably ?
they would bo called to tho bar of the
Senate to-morrow, moved to adjourn '
to Wednesday. Under remonstrances
from those near him, Stevens with- |
drew the motion, ami the House nd- j
jourtied to 12 to-morrow.
In tho impeachment court, the fol?
lowing is the form proposed by Chase !
and adopted by the Senate: "Mr. j
Senator-, how say you-is the
respondent, Andrew Johnson, Presi?
dent of - the United States, guilty of
a high misdemeanor or crimo, as
charged in this article?" Tho Senator
shall respond, "Guilty," or "Not
Guilty," .only. At 10 o'clock, the
Senate proceeded to consider tho ar?
ticles-each Senator having fifteen
minutes. The court will continuo in
session to a late hour. The following
is gathered from several sources, nud
may be regarded as reliable: Grimes
and Fe8sendeu went through the list
of charges, arguing against convic?
tion; Trumbull and Henderson were
pnrtiy through, when the expiration
of tho fifteen minutes stopped them
they argued in favor of acquittal.
! Howe and Sherman argued for ac
I quittai on tho first, but for conviction
on tho second. Tho radicals acknow?
ledge it will ba very close, but insist
defiantly that they have thirty-eight
vote**.

peachment, simultaneously with its

Tho last relic of slavery iu Rhode
Island has disappeared. In the
census of 1840, five slaves were re?
ported from that State. In the next
census none wero reported, the five
being either dead or manumitted.
Tho last of tho number, Jeunio
Hazard, was buried on tho 20th ult.,
at Newport, R. I., having died at tho
ago of ninety-six years. She was
born the slave of Jonathan Eastou,
and served the Hazard family through
three generations. For years she
was supported by the representativos
of thar family. The eeusus of 1810,
which reported five slaves in Rhode
Island, also reported sevonteen in
Connecticut, 331 in Illinois, three in
India, sixteen in Iowa, one in New
Hampshire, four in New York, three
in Ohio, sixty-four in Pennsylvania,
and eleven iu Wisconsin. New Jer?
sey had 074. In liS?O, all these had
disappeared from the cousus except
230 from from New Jersey, in 1800,
tins number bad dwindled to eight?
een, but the number ol' slaves in the
free States had been reinforced by
two in Kansas, thedebatableground.
Nature and history curiously ap?
proved each other's records in the
case of a;: old elm troc, eut down in
Boston the other day. The town
record shows that tho elm was plant?
ed by vote of tho town of Boston in
the year 1733-that is, I'M years ago;
and the annual layers or rings of tho
tree, which wcro plainly visible after
its trunk had been severed, were
counted to the number of 131, thus
exactly corresponding with the date
at which it was planted. It appears
that some of the incidents of history
are trust-worthy.
Mrs. Langdon, sister of William
B. Astor, of New Yuk, has begun a
sv.it against ber brother for the re?

F-aahlon? for Men.
- - If silken LOM, "pointa".and skull?
ed doublets were still the fashion for
men's wear, there wonld be more
"opening days" and "new styles" for
the newspapers to describe; but in?
asmuch as tho nngaiuly dress of men
consistently repeats itself, novelties
in male costume arc scarce. Never?
theless, wo bavo given full accounts
of tho fushious set for women by the
mantua-makers and tho milliners, a
few particulars concerning tho spring
styles of malo, wearing apparel are
not out of place.
HATS.-The spring style in hats is
a considerable reduction of the low
bell crown. During the coming
summer white napped and pearl
colored napless hats of the same
shape promise to bo more general
than last last year, though preference
will often be shown to the scull hat,
or "round crown," still iu vogue.
Hats of thick straw, with narrow
brims aud wido black bands, will also
receive attention.
COATS.-For full dress, tho hotel
waiter suit of black, with white neck?
tie, continues in favor. Coats still
have silk breast facings, but this
agreeable inroad upon plainness has
had its day, and is departing. An
I occasional innovation ventures upon
a dark bluo or deep claret coat, but
he is a rarity. No metal buttons are
I used. Collars ni e medium sized, and
cut low.
A decided tendency to blue and
mulberry is showing itself in frook
coats. Waists are becoming some?
what shorter.
Morning cut-away coats of cheeks,
stripes, aud fiuo figured cassimereB,
with bindings, are still favorites.
Mixed cheviot and check cossimcre
aro preferred for field sports; and for
a riding dress a velvet out-away is oft *n
seen.
Boys over six years of nge continue
tho short sacks now worn. Under
that ago they are continued according
to maternal caprice.
PANTALOONS.-Those garments con?
tinue their protest against the peg
tops of the past, by a tendency to
tighten. They lio more fully over
the boot than last year. Biding
pantaloons, used with top boots, aro
of elastic cassimere, aud button tight
at the ankle. Walking pantaloons
continue the stripes down tho seams,
and aro of colors according to taste
Dress pantaloons are still black.
Pockets aro inserted across tho top oi
the fore-part, instead of in the side
seams, and sometimes there is a
pocket behind.
WAIST-COATS.-For day costume
waist-coats aro worn high, and are
either collarless or with n narrow
roll. lu full dress, a low breast ia
continued, with a low roll collar,
Black cassimere or white Marseille!
are tho materials of the latter. Those
of the former vary with taste and
correspond with tho coat.
SHIRT COLLARS, Bosons AND WRIST?
BANDS.-The three-ply standing col
lar is a favorite in full dress, aud foi
day costume divides favor with thc
Byronic style.
Shirt bosoms for party dress arc
elaborately worked, but simple in pat
tern. Day shirts, being much cover
ed by high waist-coats, aro plain ant
wide plaited.
A new caprice closes tho wrist
baud on the top of the wrist iusteac
of underneath, from the fancy thu
the former mode interferes less witl
writing.
CRAVATS.-The narrow neck-tie
with narrow cuds, is still a favorite
A black silk tie is somotimes seen a
parties iustead of white; silk cravat
still divide taste during the day timi
with silk ties.
BOOTS AND SHOES.-Toes aro widen
ing and heelB are higher. Oxfori
ties and gaiters aro still popular
Water-proof canvas is used for gait
ers, trimmed with russet leather
The English ankle boot is still mud
worn.

Of widows raiso their piteous cry

Thc following lines, says tho Augusta

Strew those dear graves thickly over,

Sleeping there.

Offerings rare;
The very fairest Howers that bloom,
To deck oach hallowed soldier's tomb!
Violet, rose and morning glory,
Though they say "memento morl,"

Of tho time to como;

Yesterday's Havana telegram that
, thora waa nu jther Mexican revolution
i and that President Juarez was flying
to the Texas fron tier, "With $7,000,
000 in hie possession, is rendered
vory dubious by tho last mentioned
circumstance. It is many a day since
the "Mexican treasury contained
$7,000,000. Ever B?UCO Juarez was
reinstated at tho capital, hisjGovorn
mont has been pinched for very
small sums of money, aud the recent
report of Senor Romero shows that
there was a daily strnggle to prevent
colla2>se through bankruptcy. It is
perfectly true that plots have lately
beon hatching against Juarez, and if
revolution should overtake him as
suddenly as it has overtaken somo of
his predecessors, it would bo no
special causo of wonder. Only a fow
.cveck- ?go, u daring attempt was
mado to assassinate him, and tho
investigation showed that tho con?
spiracy extended to his own house?
hold, and was participated in by some
of his most trusted supporters.
Tho Keoweo Courier informs ns
that Dr. Faber, Professor of Ancient
Languages in Furman University,
has recently beon in Walhalla to
make inquiry as to tho means of ac?
commodating with temporary resi?
dences a colony of emigrants from
near Heidelberg, Germany, who
have expressed in a communication
to him their desire to locate in that
quarter. It is needless to say that
the doctor met with every encourage
meut, and returned a favorable reply.
A revival of religion is in progress

tolls of a rope-walker who drew a

take up a collection, his whole
audience incontinently left for tho
prayerrmceting.
Tho Now York Legislature has
adjourned, after refusing to submit
tho now constitution lately framed by
a convention in that State to a vote
of tho people. The conveution left
the matter discretionary with the Le?

constitution, it now goes for naught.
