Newspaper Page TextThe Savannah PaflyHerald, THURSDAY JANUARY II. 1866. CONGRKSS AGAIN. This body, which adjourned for a short period to enable the members to spend the holidays at their respective homos,reconvened od the 6th inst. In the House of Representatives there was no quorum, but, notwithstanding the fact, it resolved itsell into a Committee ol the Whole on the State ot the Union, and proceeded to engage in debate. The opportunity to dis cuss the President's reconstruction policy was so inviting that it could not be success fully resisted ; so Mr. Spaulding, of Ohio, made a speech. The views of this gentlomau may there fore bo regarded as the flrBt exposition ot the “radical wing" of the Republicans after hav ing felt the pulse of their constituents and prospected the tone of party sentiment at home. In the views of the Speaker there seems to be no essential modification of the leading features of Mr. Stevens’ programme. Tlis propositions were as follows: First—Extend the right of suffrage to eo lored men in the District of Columbia. Second—Amend the Constitution of the United States in reBnect to the apportion ment of representatives and direct taxes, in such manner that the people of color should not be counted with the population, except in States whore they are permitted to exer cise the elective franchise. Third—Insert a provision prohibiting nulli fication and secession. Fourth—Prohibiting the repudiation of the National debt, and prohibiting the assump tion by Congress of the rc-bel debt. Fifth—Providing that no person who at any time has taken up arms against the United States shall ever be admitted to a seat in the Senate or House of Representa tives If, indeed, this is a correct statement ol the fixed policy of the radicals, and they should acquire supremacy in the councils of the nation, it requires but little Intelligence to discover that the doom of the Southern States is fixed. Moat of thu leading Repub licans are throwing off one disguise after another, until their plan is revealed and con fessed in all its frightful bideousness. Uu- less every present indication is deception, their plan is simply to refuse re-admissiou to the Union of the rebellious States, aad to hold them as subject aud conquered pro vinces! The States will then be deprived of all political weight in the Government, and the radicals will thus be able to keep the oontrol of things in their own bands. They fear, so Mr. Stevens frankly declared in bis recent speech, thaf if the Southern States ar^ ad mitted into the Union and are permitted to participate in its legislation and elections they will be able, with the conservative ele ment of the North, to crash them forever and drive them from the high places which they now abuse. To bold these States as territo ries or conquered provinces obviates all the the difficulties aud removes all the dangers in their path. They would have no difficulty in electing the next President, and thus se curing mother four years’ lease of power, lu the meantime, however, the Southern States would languish and grow poor. Neither immigration 6r capital would flow towards them Such of the population as could do to some other country ndM^fttasd political to the iffTd cease ["stagnation and decay would take that.place of health and piosperlty. However, if we are not greatly deceived, these extreme and thoughtless politicians will find two formidable obstacles in the way ot tho accomplishment of their vindic tive purposes. The two most eminent and influential men in this country, with means of information, too, superior to all others, uuito iu bearing testimony, upon both their official and personal responsibility, to the Bounciness and loyalty of the Southern peo ple—President Johnson aud Lieat General Grant. The most factious, bigoted and ca lumnious of the enemies of the South cannot accuse these high officials of disloyalty to the Government, or of ayrapatby with the rebellion. Iu their several spheres they stand, above all others, conspicuous and pre-eminent for zeal, energy,ability and devo tion in the work of thwarting secession and restoring the Union. They now lend the authority of their great names to the pub lic and official declaration, that “the rebel lion” no longer exists, and that the Southern States and people have honestly returned to their allegiance. This may truly be charac terized as the highest human testimony, and will not fail, we hopo, however formidable the opposition of the extremists, to determine the legislation of Congress, sooner or later, in favor of the restoration of the Southern States to their constitutional status. The President and General Grant seem to be per- lectly in accord. The highest civil and military authorities are working harmonious ly together. The fact is of good omen. These two great citizens, from their supreme elevation in the Government, have a scope of vision not vouchsafed to those less highly placed. BY TELEGRAPH TO THE Daily Herald. Proceedings of Congress. Senate. Washinoton, Jan. 8.—In the Senate to day no business of impottsi&i w*e trans acted. The session lasted only half an hour. Haase. In the House, Mr. Williams offered a reso lution that in order to maintain the national authority and protect the loyal citizens of the seceding States, the military forces of the Government shall not be withdrawn tram these States until Congress shall declare their presence is unnecessary. The resolution was passed. * Wabhi&uton, Jan. 9.—Gen. Howard, ot tho Frcedmen's Bureau, reports to the House representing that in consequence of in structions having been received to restore abandoned property to former owners when pardoned, the tenure upon it was rendered so uncertain that the steps.taken to allot it to Freedmen were countermanded, the re venue resulting therefrom being very mate rially curtailed. The joint committee appointed to prepare testimonials iu honor of the late President Lincoln report that they have requested Hon. Geo. Bancroft to deliver an address. Tho President transmitted to the House to-day reports in response to resolutions of that body relative to Mexican affairs. They embrace much diplomatic correspondence ou the subject, and are mainly to the effect that indisposition exists on the part of the United States Government to recognize any other government in Mexico, excepting the repub lican Government, presided over by Juarez, with which we have so long, been on terms of amity aud friendship. In the Senate, Sumner offered s resolution to protect freedmen from being kidnapped or carried to Cuba and Brazil, there to be held in slavery. He read letters from persons lrom all parts of the country, stating that this is so, and remarked that Federal officers were among the guilty parties. He moved that the Judiciary Committee be directed to enquire whether any further legislation is needed to prevent the revival ot the slave trade. Senator Davis, of Kentucky, in reply to Mr. Sumner's remarks, said he had no doubt the Yankees were re-opening the slave trade, and expressed bis belief that they would do so if they could make money by it. The re solution of Senator Sumner ^as adopted. Senator Wilson gave notice that he would, on Wednesday, call up his bill to increase and fix the number of men In the regular army. Atter an executive session the Senate ad journed. In the House, Mr. Voorhees made a speech endorsing the President’s policy of reeon- atruetion and combatting the doctrine of Mr. Stevens, of Pennsylvania, that the e.xhauatedbefore the flretfuUli States, by war, had ceased to £xiat as States. He contended that, the war ceaied, obedience to the laws only gnaran tee required*!*** sion, ha week for American. Sales of the week 59,- frf>0 bales. New Orleans middlings 211-2<1.

The course of trade has been a good deal changed by the want of the ctstouiary rise In the rivers. Instead of the receipt of 700,000 bales weekly, the average has been restricted to 60,000 bales. The information now from all points is that the rivers are rapidly rising and the receipts are already on an increasing scale. The receipts hare and at Mobile for the weeks ending December 16 were 22,169 bales; December 22, 85,684 bales; and December 29, 37,200 bales.

[Special despatch to the Savannah Herald.] New York, Jan. 10.—Evening.—The steamer Mary A. Boardman, from Morehead City, N. C., for New York, waa wrecked on Romain Shoal and became a total loss. The passengers were saved, but suffered severely. The regular steamer for Savannah has de layed sailing until to-morrow on account of ice in the harbor. The sales of cotton to-day were 1,600 bales at 49 to 50 cents. The market ia declining. Gold closed at 139 1-4. CORRESPONDENCE BETWEEN MINIS TER ADAMS AND EARL CLAR- ENDEN. Washington, Jan. 9.— 1 Tbe correspondence between Minister Adams and Earl Claren den has been published. The former says when the Shenandoah arrived at Liverpool tbe British Government should have taken active steps in regard to her, even though, accord ing to the latter, none of the crew were British subjects, which prevented such ac tion.

The report o( the three gentlemen ap pointed by Mr.~ McCuUoch to nerve on the Tax Commission authorised at the last ses sion of Congress, has -bees delayed, and is not yet complete. It Wilt be laid befiBfe Congress this month. The N. Y. Post thinks if this report is to be of practical use, it should obviously be in the hands of mem bers of Congress, so as to give them ample time to examine it before tbe tax question comes up. On Saturday the Saxonia lookout $330,- 000, and the City ot Washington $76,000, making a total of $405,000. Gbeat Hakdshh*s.—’The manufacturers and bankers seem to be running away with all tbe money. Here is a statement of what one of the National Banks is gathering from the community for its stockholders: ‘The National Currency Biuk has de clared its quarterly dividend^' 16 per cent, with 10 per cent, additional to surplus ac count. We are informed that this makes 60 per cent, cash dividends, and 30 per cent, of surplus for the past year.’’ This is equal to anything that any of the cotton and hardware companies in New En gland are doing. We wonder whether Mr. Sprague will not deem it hia duty to propose some scheme for the relief of the National Banks, aa well as for tbe manufacturing com panies. Their case seems to be one ot equal hardship.—N. Y. Post, 6th. Bcsiness Falling Off in Nbw Orleans. —A late despatch from New Orleans say*: Business generally is falling off here, and advices of similar import come to us from Texas. Goods can now be bought cheaper in Gal veston and Houston than they can here. Parlies are buying good9 there at auction and sending them here and to New York for sale. Fears are entertained by old business men that a “smash up” must come sooner oi later. Three brick stores in the central part of the city were recently sold for less than the bricks could be bought for. Amebican Secubities.—Secretary McCul loch’s financial statement was lavorably re ceived by the English press, aud tbe United States five-twenties had advanced one and an eighth on the London Stock Exchange. Washington Itsms. The records of the Treasury Department show that during the last two years tbe gov ernment has realized from sales of confisca ted and abandoned cotton, sugar, &c., in the State of Mississippi, over $6,000,000. Considerable stir was created among those interested in our mercantile marine, to-day, by the introduction of a resolution by Mr. Pike, of Maiue, directing the Committee on Commerce to iuquire into the expediency of reporting a bill providing that no American register shall lie granted to any American vessel which, during the war, hoisted a for eign flag. The counsel for Semmes, Messrs. Hughey Denver and Peck, will present to tbe Presi dent to-morrow a petition asking tbe release of their client from custody, irrespective of any contemplated triai before a naval court- martial. The argument ot Semmes is, that having been paroled by Gen. Sherman, both as an Admiral and Brigadier General in tbe Confederate Army, ten months after tbe engagement between the Keargorge and Ala bama, be cannot now be held liable to an swer for anything prior to that parole. A letter from Fortress Monroe state* that large quantities of the bedding of the Hamp ton General Hospital have been bought to furnish hotels in Baltimore, Washington and Philadelphia, fifty cords of irofl bedsteads, 4,000 mattresses, 10,000 blanket* gnd fr 000 linen sheets, almost as good as new—a few ■till stained by the blood of wounded North ern soldiers, thousands pf whom, both white and colored, died upon them—go North to furnish a house of summer resort, City Licenses.
