peace establishment oi the
ides that the regular atniy
seven regiments ot artillery,
aud sixty of iufunir^; each
service to coutaiu a propor-
of black troops, officered by
House.
Mr. Howe offered a resolution declaring
that the seceding Stales bad forfeited their
rights, and made a speech denying the doc
trine ot the indestructibility of State Gov-
erniuonls. He said the President had no
right to restore civil authority lo the rebel
Stales; his duties were ouly executive.
In the House, Mr. Wilson, of Iowa, made
» speech iu support ot tlic bill extending the
right of suffrage in the District of Columbia.
He said the social element here tosteied the
spirit of secession, and made a lengthy
speech 011 the subject.
Mr. Brouyer, of Tennessee, opposed the
bill on the ground that this is a white man's
Government, and said the intention of the
bill, a* was perfectly clear, was to establish
equality of races.
Mr. Schofield, of Tenucssce, favored the
passage of the hill..
In response to the Senate resolution
asking why Jefferson Davis has not been
brought to trial, the President to-day trans
mitted a message, enclosing a letter from At-
toruey General Speed, who states that uo
United States Circuit Court has been held in
the late rebellious districts siuce the termi
nation of hostilities, aud that he held the
opinion that the late insurgents awailitiug
trial should be tried only in the civil courts
when lully and actually restored, and that
he has not thought it proper to advise the
President to cause criminal proceedings to
be instituted against Davis or auy other in
surgent in Stales or Districts in which they
were not actually present during the prose
cution ot hostilities.

Inlrrrding Letter from General Plllaw
Nashvillb, Tesn., Dec. 22, 1865
Major .General 0■ 0. Howard, Commissioner,
i" etc., Washington:
It affords me pleasure to inform you that
1 have been successful beyond my most san
guine expectations, in engaging labor for all
my plantations in Arkansas aDd Tennessee.
I have already engaged about four hundred
freedmen, and have full confidence in mak
ing a success of the work I have given, in
all cases, the freedmen a part of the cotton,
, and 1 allow him land for the culture of vege •
I tables and corn for bis own use, without
ft charge therefor. I would have engaged one
{thousand laborers if I had needed that num-
|ber. My brother, who adopted my plan ot
cork, succeeded in engaging laborers for
three places he is working. I have put one
large plantation under white laborers lrom
the North upon precisely the same terms I
fiugaged freedmen. I feel anxious to try the
■ystem of white labor of that character, for
l"he plantation. Knowing the interest you feel
|u the success of the system of the freedmeu,
and teeling grateful for your kindness to me,
i feel it to be a duly to communicate the re
sult of my work thus tar.
With assurance of my personal regard and
kespect, I am, General, very respectfully,
(Signed] Gideon J. Pillow.
At the Thanksgiving dinner of the Arneri-
tns in Paris, the toast—‘‘His Majesty the
luiperor of the French” was given ; an ex

New York, Jan
Oar Chilian Minuter,
Who sailed last Saturday, was “ovated by
quite a large crowd of friends, who were
quite demonstrative on the occasion. As the
lines were thrown off he was greeted with a
round of “nine more" cheers, to which he
responded by significantly, pioposing three
cheers tor the Republic of Chili,” which were
given, with a repeater. Somebody then
mounted an old capstan, and proposed
“three groans for old Spain,” which were
heartily given, much to the disgust of some
olive coinplexioned individuals among the
passengers. This circumstance is quoted as
a political straw !
Orent Expectations
are hinged by our people upon the avowal
made by our new Mayor, (who has been in
ducted into office] in his speech at the New
England dinner, that he should endeavor lo
reform many existing abuses. How these
expectations are to be realized remains to be
seen, but the main difficulty undoubtedly
will be experienced by him in resolving
where to begin—the thievery, knavery and
rascality which has so long fastened upon
our municipal body corporate, is of such
huge proportions as to frighten any man with
a speck of honesty in his composition. If it
can he done, however, our community feel
confident that Hoffman will do it fearlessly.
••The Ball is Up,”
3 the joyful cry of the red-cose youngsters
on the streets as the horse-cars go by with
a ■white flag containing a round red centre—
this being the announcement to skatingdom
that the ice is thick enough to bear. After
over three weeks of mild, wet, sloppy, foggy,
raining, dismal and thick weather, to-day we
gladly hail clear skies, a Northwest wind that
conjeals as it fleetingly touches, and furs,
tippets, mufflers, and other things of a warm
nature are iu vogue.
Revolvers
are about as much in demand now-a-davs in
Brooklyn, as they were in this city during
the riots. That goodly city appears to be
infested with an horrible gang of desperadoes,
who seemingly care as little for the law and
the tew officers over there as if there were
no such thing as punishment lor Clime. A
perusal of the papers of thut town of long
avenues and high steeples shews unmis-
takeable evidence that it is fast going ahead
of this city in “modern civilization,” and may
yet eclipse the metropolis in the quantity, as
it has lately in the horrible quality ot its
murders, assassinations, burglurizations and
fiendish incinerations.
The Bounty Jumper'* Home.
No one place in this country was so pro
lific in furnishing bountyjurapers during the
past three years as that part of Brooklyn
known as “South Brooklyn," situate lrom
Atlantic Avenue to Red Hook.
Probably over a thousand of these scoun
drels located in that delightful part of our
neighboring city. Many of them made large
sums of money and speul it like princes.
One of them turned up last Saturday with a
request to be sent to the Poor House, which
was granted, be mating the remark that that
was the bounty jumpy's home. One year
and six months ago he hired a brown-stone
house on Clinton street, furnished it at an
outlay of five tbousaud dollars, married a
woman of the town, and became notorious
for the number and costliness of his orgies.
Suddenly the woman disappeared, the fellow
was arrested for debt, and at last, seeing a
freezing starvation staring him in his bloated
face, seeks reluct: in the Poor House, faithful
to the last, in his fieterminaliou to get his
living out of the public ! This is only ope of
the numerous similar cases.
he Viilon Restored—A j'ruclnwution
Expected.
The National Iuteiligeueer of the 1st in
stant, contains the following important an
nouncement :
“The policy of conciliation, which Presi
dent Johnson adopted as the best means ot
restoring the constitutional relations of the
States lately alienated, is fully justified by
events. Nearly all of those Suites have al
ready accepted and acted upon the invitation
of the president to participate .in the high
office ot amending the- Constitution, and
have also complied with file President’s ad
vice to sweep off from their statutes ail ves
tiges either of the rebellion or slavery. State
after State, having complied with the require
ment* of the Executive, 1ms been restored to
its proper functions, aud is now governed by
officers of its own choice. In two other
States Florida and Texas, such progress 1s
being made iu the work of reorganization as
to render it quite certain that, they will both
soon be in a condition to resume State gov
ernment under their State constitutions. It
is with great pleasure that we announce the
fact that the President will thus toon be
enabled to crown his great work of concilia
tion by n proclamation declaring that the
States whose powers have been so long in
abeyance have resumed their * u “ c '
lions as members of the Union, and that tlje
Union is restored.
New York, Jan. 3.-The Herald's Wash
ington despatch says: To obviate the diffi
culty now prevailing in many localities in the
South, occasioned by the loss ot titles and
papers relating thereto in the transfer ot
lands, the General Laud offjee has ordered
its agents throughout the Southern states pi
carefully collect all vestiges and remnants oi
the records of their officers and forward them
to the Commissioner at Washington, that
new plats and othar archives appertaining to
the lands may he supplied as far as possible.
New maps arc being got up with all possible
despatch. At the lime of our ipyaston ol
the South many adventurers attached to the
army secured many valuable papers and
records relative to certain large estates,in the
hope of the owners offering heavy rewards
for their restoration after the close ot the
war. It is the hope of the Commissioner oi
public lands to be able to luVnish so much of
the missing data as to prevent parties to the
theft gaining by the documents they now
withhold in expectation of a bribe.

interest. The hill then provides for voluntary
bankruptcy, on the motion of the bankrupt
himself; aud involuntary bankruptcy, on the
motion of the creditors of the bankrupt. The
provisions are distiuct as to each.
In involuntary bankruptcy it is provided
that any person residing within the jurisdic
tion ol the United States, owing debts prov
able under the act exceeding $500 in amount,
can apply by petition to the judge of the ju
dicial district in which ho resides, setting
torlh his inability to pay his debts, and an
nexing a sworn schedule of his debts, their
amount and nature, with the oames and res
idences of his creditors, annexing also an in
ventory of all property of every kind in his
possession, or in which he has any interest;
and the filing of anch petition is to be an act
of bankruptcy,. and the petitioner shall be
adjudged a bankrupt. The judge is then to
issue a warrant directing the marshal lo take
possession ot all the debtor's property of ev
ery kind, and keep the same until the appoint
ment of an assignee, and directing him to
notify creditors to prove their debt3. As
signees are lo he chosen by the greater part
in value of creditors, and such assignees,
when approved by the judge, take possession
of the debtor’s property and all books and
papers relating thereto, with certain slight
exceptions.
All debts and liabilities existing, though
not matured or not ascertained in nuiount
at the time of the adjudication of bankruptcy,
may be proved against the bankrupt’s estate-
And all claims provable under the act can be
prosecuted iu no other manner than under
the act, except for the mere purpose of de
ciding their amount. All claims arc to be
presented on oath, and are to lie investigated
judicially in case either their amouul or vali
dity is disputed. The assignees have power
also, under the supervision of the courts. to
sell or redeem properly, and to take various
prescribed measures for the advantage of the
estate, and to bring and to defend soils on
behalf of the estate.
Wages due aoy operative, clerk or bouse
servant, to an amount not exceeding fifty
dollars, are to hare a priority over all claims
of individuals, and be first paid in full. At
the final dividend claims are to be paid in
full in the following order: First—Fees and
costs ot the proceedings. Second—All dues
to the United States. Third—All dues to
the State in which the proceedings are pend
ing. Fourth—Wages of operatives, &c.,
which have accrued during the six months
preceding the first notice of the proceedings
as above mentioned. Fifth—All dues to
persons entitled to priority, atide from the
provisions of the act, under the laws of the
United States.
On due notice, and at the lime and under
the conditions provided by the act, the final
discharge is to be givpn to tho bankrupt from
all claims provable under the act; such dis
charge to be withheld, or to be invalid if
granted, in case of any fraud or violation on
the part of the petitioner ot the provision of
the act in that behalf.
No second discharge is to be granted to
any bankrupt whose estate is insufficient to
pay seventy per cent, or me claims against
him without the consent of three-fourths, in
value, of his creditors. And no third dis
charge can be granted in any case. But a
Imnluupt who has paid all claims existing at
the time of a previous bankruptcy shall be
purified to a discharge as though there had
been no previous application. Creditors may
oppose the discharge, and have the grounds
of their opposition tried by jury. 4*1 debts
created by action of the bankrupt in a judi
ciary capacity arc exempte.d from the ope
ration of the discharge.
Similar provisions are made as to bank
ruptcy proceedings on the part of partner
ships and corporations.
The proceedings in involuntary bankruptcy
on the motion of the creditors differ from
those is yoluutary bankruptcy simply in
their commencement. Whenever a debtor
avoids legal process in an action for the re
covery of a debt or demand provable under
the act, or disposes of hia property in fraud
of fiis creditor?; or whenever a banker, mer
chant or trader fraudulently suspends and
dues not resume the payment of hjs .com
mercial paper within fourteen days, and in a
Urge class of enumerated cases the debtor,
oi petition of his creditors to the amount of
o-er two bppdre'] and fifty dollars, shall be
aJjudged a bankrupt.
After the adjudication of bankruptcy, three-
foirths in value ot the creditors can, under
tin direction and approval of court, wind up
aid settle the bankrupt's estate In such man-
ucr as they may agree upon, and the estate
isthen vested in trustees, the rights and du-
tiis of the trustees being similar to those of
th; assignees under the ordinary method of
pnoedure; and the discharge is to be in the
Wqje form and of the same effect as though
tie usual proceedings ii) bankruptcy were

Cheering News from Wabuinoto.n.—A
Dedal despatch to the Louisville Couiiei.
iated|Washington, January 4, in commeutiug
m the state of affairs, reads thus :
Yinoug those who have returned from a
lirigtmafl yifcjt to thejr friends, there is a
ery marked tendency to porservaUsip ancj a
norc general support of Johnson’s policy of
ecousiruetion. At the beginning .of the sns-
ion of Congress there were only two Sens
ors known to be willing to give a hearty
upport to the President ; now there are more
..an twenty who will stand by him aud sus-
iin his programme.
The few radicals are endeavoring to coun-
ract the influence of the recent popular
rte against negro suffrage in the District,
ieetings have been called for this purpose,
lit they have been complete failures in every
jstance. The impression is beginning to
levail that an active advocacy of negro suf-
hge is not a strong recommendation to
Lecutive favor, and offly a few official*
live had the manhood lo defy the Execu
te displeasure.
