FROM WASHINGTON. TTie act to establish a bureau for the relief ot freedinen and refugees, which was approved in the Uat - haa not yet expired. It was thought to be stringent enough for the purposes in view before it ceases to have effect; further experience may assist to guide us to a wise conclusion as to the pohey to be adopted in time of peace I have with Congress the strongest desire to secure to ‘he freedmeu the full enjoyment of their property and their enure independence and equality in making contracts for their labor. But the bill before me con tains provisions which, in my opinion, are not war- ranted by the Constitution and are not well suited to accomplish the end In view.

Let us not unnecessarily disturb the commerce, credit and industry of the country by declaring to the American people and the world that the United States are still in a condition of civil war. At present tbci e is no part of our country in which fhe authority of the United Stotas is disputed. Offenoos that may be committed by individuals should not work a forfeiture ol the rights of the same communi ties. The country lia9 entered, or is returning, to a state of peace and industry, and the rebellion is in fact at an end. The measure, therefore, seems to be as ^inconsistent with the actual condition of* the country aa at variance with the Constitution of the United States. If, passing from general considera tions, we examine the bill in detail, it is open to weighty objections. In time of war it was evidently proper that we should provide for those who were passing suddenly from a condition - of bondage to a state of freedom. But the bill proposes to make the Freedmen’s Bu reau; established by the act of I860,, aa one of the many great aud extraordinary military mefUure9 to suppress a formidable rebellion, a permanent branch of the pub lic administration, with its powers greatly enlarged. I have no reason to suppose, and do not understand it to be alleged, that the a5t of March, 1865, has proved deficient for the purpose for which it was passed, al though at that time, and for a considerable period thereafter, the Government of the United States re mained unacknowledged in most of the States whose inhabitants had been involved in the rebellion. The institution of slavery, for the destruction of which the Freedmen’s Bureau was called into existence as an auxiliary for it, has already been effectually and finally abrogated throughout the whole country by an amend ment to the Constitution of the United States, and praticslly ita eradication has received the assent and knuounceo that the steamship Ban- concurrence of the most of those States which at any ■ov.na8tkt J j. Smallwood, has been time had existed, and are not, therefore, able to dis cern in the country anything to justify mi apprehen sion that the powers and agencies of the Freedmen’s Bureau, which were effective for the protection of freedmen and refugees, durifig the actual continuation of hostilities and of African servitude, will it now, in a time of peace, and after the abolition of slavery, prove inadequate to the same proper ends ? If I am correct in these views, there can be no ne cessity for the enlargement of the powers of the Bu reau, for which a provision is made in the bUL The third section of the bill authorises a general and un limited amount of support to the destitute and suffer ing refugees and freedmen, and their wives and child- and capable of selecting their own places of abode, of insisting far them selves, for a proper remuneration, and of establishing- and maintaining their own Asy lums and achwfia. It is v earnestly hoped that instead of wasting away, they will, by their own efforts, es tablish for themselves a condition of respectability and prosperity. It is certain they can attain to that con dition only through their own merits anfl exertions. In this connection the question presents itself whether the system proposed by the bill will not, when put into complete operation, practically transfer the en tire care, support and control of four millions of eman cipated slaves to agents, overseers or taskmasters, who, appointed at Washington, are to be located in _ „ , against the Btate lor printing.

I cannot but add another very grave objection to this bill. The Constitution imperatively declares, in connection with v taxation, that each State have at least one Representative, and fixes the rule for the number to which, in future times, each State shall be entitled. It also provides that the Senate of the Uni ted States shall be composed of two Senators from each State, and adds, with peculiar force, that no State without its consent shall be deprived of its suffrage in the South. The original act waa necessarily passed in the ab sence of the States chiefly to be affected, because their people were then contumaciously engaged in the re bellion. Same, at least, of the States are attending Congress by loyal representatives, soliciting the allow ance of the Constitutional right of representation: At Co. of Newton county. Passed.

The prinaiple is firmly fixed in the minds of the American people that there can be no taxation without representation. Great burdens are now to be borne by all the country, and we may best demand that they shall be borne without a murmur, when they are voted by a majority of all tbe representatives of the people. I would not interfere with the unquestionable right of Congress to judge, each House for itself, of tbe elec tions, returns, and qualifications of its own members; but that cannot be construed as including the right to IN (1K\KHAL. — An American company is forming in Pittsburg to explore and work the Barbadoes Islands oil districts in the British West Indies.

The Congress of tbe United States has never heretofore thought itself competent to establish any laws beyond the limits of the District of Colombia, except for the benefit of our disabled soldiers and sailors. It lias never founded schools for any class of our own' people, not even for tbe orphans of those who have fallen In defence of the Union, but has left the care of their education to tbe much more competent control of tbe States of comnmnities, of private associations, and of individ uals. IT baa never deemed itself authorized to eg-' 1 pend the public money for the rent or purchase of houses for the thousands, not to say millions, of the White race who are honestly toiling front day to day for their subsistanec. A system for the support of indigent persons in the United States was never contemplated by the author* of the Constitution. Nor can any good reason be ad vanced why, as a permanent establishment, it should be founded for one class or color of our people more than another.

There always will be difference of opinion in the community, and individuals may be guilty of transaction of the law, but those do not constitute valid objections against the right of a State to representation. It would in nowise interfere with the diacretiofa of Congress with regard to the qualification of members, but 1-hold it my duty to recommend to you, in the interests of peace and in the interests of the Union, the admission of every State to its share of the public Legislature, when, however insubordinate, insurgent or rebellious ita people may have been, it presents itself, not only in an attitude of loyalty and harmony, but in the persons of representatives, whose loyalty cannot be questioned. Under the existing constituted or legal test, it is plain that an indefinite orpenmutent exclusion of aoy part of the country from representa tion, must be attended by . a spirit of disquiet and complaint, It is unwise and dangerous to pursue a course of measures which will unite any large section of the country against another section, no matter how much the latter may predominate. The course of immigration, the development of in dustry and business, and natural causes will raise up at the South aa devoted to the Union as those of any part of the land; bnt if they are all excluded from Congress; if, in a permanent statute they are doctored not to be in full constitutional relations to tbe country, they may think they have canto to become s unit in feeling and sentiments against the government under the political education of the American people. The idea is inherent and ineradicable, but tbe consent of tbe majority of the whole people is necessary to insure a willing aequiesence in legislation. Tbe bill finder consideration refers to certain of the States as though they had not been fully restored to the United Rates, End, if they have not, let us at once act together to insure that desirable end at the earliest ifoasible mo ment j ... It la hardly necessary for me to inform Congress that, in my own judgement, most of these States—so far at least as depends upon their own actions have already been folly restored and are entitled to enjoy their Constitutional rights as members of the Union, reasoning from the Constitution itself and .from the tained iu the letter of Lien.

With currency constantly tending par, the anxiety of those engaged in them ia mtiu- euough. “I should like to know what commercial authority, native or foreign, has ever maintained it is sound policy to extinguish branches of native in- ustiy by taxation from which foreign products are exempt?” This ia a plea put in for the benefit of the iron-interest. The writer alleges that amongst the factory ownere no large number are in tavor of in crease in the present rate of duty, or who would op pose any such reduction Sa would promise an in- 6re»se_ of revenue to the Government, provided the “tiff were so adjusted as to maintain that equality be tween the import duties and the internal taxes, which economists of every school acknowledge to be both just and necessary. “This done,” ssyg the writer, ‘they would certainly be content with such inciden tal protection as s well adjusted tariff would give them, whether their special interests were kept in algM in forming it or not,” adding “that the Evening Post, as the leading organ of the free traders, not un naturally took advantage of the opportunity to point to the large dividends lately declared by several cot ton manufacturing companies. ” The writer comes to this conclusion: “Let our revenue be raised, either by tax or tariff, upon anutMng rather than coal or iron. Let us have cheap railroads, mills, machines and im plements. Tax the product but not tbe iron tools. By thus cheapening iron you create a new demand upon England for more product, and certain reBulta must follow. Her metal workers are now paid higher wages than in this country, but her miners are not. Raise the wages of her miners by a largo and sudden demand for the coarser forma of iron, now ao much needed for the extension of our railroads, then spread information among them by which they will l>e in duced to use the means thus acquired to trans fer themselves from the deep, unhealthy and hardly-worked mines of England to the easily worked surface mines of this country; and when you have thus transferred a portion of the mining population, the metal workers must fol- follow. The mining industry of England to now pressed to the utmost; a very slight additional de- mand would ruse wages even to an extravagant point, as the sudden demand upon Lancashire haa raised the wages of the operatives in the cotton factories, and with the means thus acquired, there cannot be a doubt that such emigration might be induced aa forever to equalize the cost of iron in England and the United States. Remove ten per cent, of her mining popula tion, and fifty years would not suffice for her to repair the loss.” Such iB tlie mode by-which the friends to the iron iuterest propose to resuscitate that branch of the national industry. It is by depleting England of her iron workers and raising the wages of her miners that the mining industry of the United States ia to acquire an undisputed supremacy. But it must be “ a large and sudden demand ” to produce the desired effect. The coarser terms of iron are no doubt much needed for the extension df our railroads, Ac., but how with the balance of trade against the United States, they are to succeed in producing so “great and sudden a de mand ” lor iron aa to induce a large emigration of miners is not so apparent. The simplest mode of effecting the object would be to Improve dur currency, to diminish ourigeneral imports, if we are unable; from financial necessity, to lessen our taxes, both direct and indirect But this writer does not rely alone on artificial ex pedients to maintain a competition with England in the iron trade. He appeals for success to other causes to the exhaustion of the English iron ores. He quotes the following passage from the London Econo mist: “Of 136,000,600 tons of iron now raised throughout the world. Great Britain produces eighty million and "nlted States only twenty. But this is only be- i We have had tbe first start, and because our po pulation is tor denser, and because our iron and our cool lie conveniently for each other, and conveniently for carriage. As soon as America is densely peopled, to America must both our iron and our coal suprema- oy —and all involved therein—be transferred, for the United States are in these respects immeasurably richer than even Great Britain. Their coal flelda are estimated at 196,000 square miles in extent, while ours are only 5,400. But This is not all: their coal ia often better in quality and incomparably more accessible than ours, especially in the Ohio Valley. In some places the coat at the pits’ mouth even now is two shillings per ton in America, against six shillings in England.” Now, if the iron masters in the United States are to wait for the combined effect of the exhaustion of iron iu England and the density of population iu the United States, the prospect is very remote of their success in maintaining a competition with England. The relief to the cotton manufacturer la not ' r transfer of the English operatives, as id the iron-trade, but by an adjustment of the internal revenue taxes to the duties on imports so that an equality may be maintained between the former and the latter. - “That many branches of industry are really not 'only Saved by the premium on gold, the internal Revenue taxes levied on them being to great aa to exceed the duty on foreign imports of the same class tf currency were par,” ws can very readily conceive. But the remedy - this is not to augment the duties on imp orts, but reduce the internal revenue taxes. Southern Paucf DRY GOODS HOUSE.
