OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
Wednesday March 14th, 1866.
The Radicals are jubilant over tho result of the New
Hampshire election. They say this is the first voice
from the people, and shows how emphatically they
will condemn tho President. But nothing else could
have boen expected. The President cannot put forth
his full strength until he surrounds himself by men
who earnestly sympathise with his policy, aud who
put the Executive government with all its power and
patronage on the side of the Presidout If; as the
Radicals confidently anticipate the Connecticut elec -
tions go in their favor, you may look for the ‘Central
Directory ” to take a more aggressive attitude against
the President. They are only biding their time.
There is a very great uneasiness among some of the
magnates of the Radical party, that in some way or
other, and at some time by fair means or by foul, the
southern people or some portion of them will be paid
for tbeir emancipated slaves. Heuce, consequently
the necessity of an amendment of the constitution on
this point is constantly thrown out. Yesterday the
idea was embodied in one of Senator Lane’s proposed
amendments to the constitution. Mr. Lane only pro
posed five amendments at once. This is modest on
his part. If every member thus restricted himself
the number of amendments would not be much over
one thousand. As regards a general payment for
emancipated slaves, it is hardly to be considered with
in the limits of possibility. But if ever reason and
justice resume their sway in this country, there
are some persons whom* right to be paid
for their slaves will bo very strong. Take the case of
minors who had no complicity with the war, or Union
ists, or unmarried women. It will be very difficult, un
der that clause of the Constitution which provides
“that private property shall not be taken for public
use except in just compensation,” to refuse to con
sider the claims of the above-named classes of per
sons.
The rejection of the bill for the admission of Col
orado in the Senate, created some surprise. It is
true, the mere bandfull of men there did not warrant
the existence and great franchise of a State, but Con
gress has been so much in the habit of admitting these
“half-finished ’* States, “sent before their time into
this breathing world,” that it was supposed the same
policy would be carried out now. But Colorado had
placed an obstacle in her own path, by restricting the.
right of suffrage to *• whit,c citizens.” This horrible
word “ white ” was a crime of such deep dye that it
could not be forgiven. Mr. Sumner said, in making
this distinction, “they had fallen more in xolitical
standing than they had fallen off' in population.”
The bill to seeure civil rights to all persons, as it
passed the House yesterday, undertakes to define what
it means, as follows: All persons born in the United
.States, without regard to color, arc declared citi-
zents; “ shall have the same l ight to make and enforce
contracts, to aue, be parties and give evidence, to in
herit, purgiaae, leaee, sell anTT convey real aud per
sonal property, and to have as full and equal benefit
of all laws and proceedings for tin* security of persons
and property, as is enjoyed by white citizens,” and
Splendid Strategy on tlie part of John
Bull.
The N. Y\ World of the 14th says : “ The following

square.” The other NewTork papers treat the thin£
as a canard.

HTAKTJLINU DISCOVERY
‘•It lias I icon reliably ascertained that the military ex
citement now going on in Canada is the result of «h
rect special commands from the Crown of Great
Britain, for the purpose of diverting the attention of
'the Fenian Brotherhood from Ireland, as the grand obe
jeotive point, aud to precipitate a union ot the provin
ces, with Prince Allred on an American throne. Tint
agents of England are now here LADEN WITH GOLD;
to carry out this plan, but they have been FOILED by
the detective system of the Fenian Brotherhood,
which ramifies society in tliia country even to the tav
hies of Sir Edwurd Brace, at Washington, and the ad
edited Governor-General of the Canadas. Furthei;
particulars of these astounding developments will li<*
given to the public immediately. The bearer ol dis
patches from the Queen of England, aud who carried
the orders above referred to, is a Fenian arid now in
New York!
The Koxbnry Tragedy.
The Boston papers contain the following Jtemaofj
interest concerning the supposed murder of the Joyce
children, the particulars of the remarkable detectibn
of whom we have already given:
“ We learn that the adopted parents of Dod£e, alias
• Scratch Gravel, 1 feel satisfied that he is the murderer
of the two Joyce children. While he resided at Ham
ilton, in this State, he was always regarded as a vicious
boy, and was in the habit ot carrying a revolver and
dirk knife, and when quite young rather inclined to he
fast.
•• Yesterday ink and paper were furnished him to
prepare a statement of his whereabouts during the
mouths of May and June last, hut he refused to do so.
aud they were taken away from him.
‘•This morning he remarked, poiuthjjg-to his food,
that he bad no* eaten anything or slept Spr three .lays,
and it is known-that h ohasnovvateir, foil the food that
has been given to him remained in a similar condition
as when placed in liis cell. ‘ He knows the' nature of
the suspicious against him, and told Mr. Haynes that if
he could have •• fair play ” he would establish his in
nocence.
This morning he made another important admis
sion. He told Hr. Haynes that hn could not tell him
where he was in Rdxbury, but if they would 1st him
out he would go with the officers aud point out the
places. *
• The warden this morning received letters from sev
eral parties in West Uoxhury, stating that on the day
the murders were committed, ~tlieir daughters were
followed by a man in that vicinity, and the young
ladies are confident that they can identify* the person
again. They are to visit the prison for that purpose.
“At the interview this morning Dodge told Mr.
Haynes that the blacksmith could not identify a certain
article that he had on when he was said to have been
in his company at Roxbury, and upon enquiry as to
who had made any statement that he could. Dodge Re
plied that the deputy warden had so informed him.
V..11 .r„. i , - * ,, - . .* pneu Luai iuc uepuiy warueu uau so linorzj
„ 1 This is a falsehood, for the latter has held
thau white people; aud any one wbo .shall
fringe any of these rights shall be subject to fine of
one thousand dollars aud twelve mouths imprison
ment, with Anal appeal in ail cases to the Supreme
Court of the United sutC9. Thus act not to affect the
right of suffrage. If this bill becomes a law it will
be the most important bill that has ever passed Con
gress, so far as the internal affairs of the States are
concerned. While it nominally applies to the whole
United 9tates, yet practically it finds subjects for its
operation almost exclusively in the southern States.
One great resource of the Radical press is to publish
letters or pretended letters from the south, giving ac
counts of the barbarous manner in which the negroes
are treated. These letters are frequenly written by,or pro
less tobewritten by agents or officers of the Freedinen’s
Bureau. In almost every issue of the lcadiug Radical
papers one or more of these letters may be found.
It would seem the officers of the Freedmen'e Bureau
do very' little else than write letters. These let
ters must in the main be false, and yet they do im
mense harm. They are gradually poisoning the
northern mind. If possible some remedy should be
adopted.
The President was in fine spirits at the ball lsst
night. The attendance of members of Congress is
much le93 than it used to be. The President has a
faith in the people doing right. Other persons how
ever,are not so sanguine. The people generally mean
well, but they are constantly subject to impoBition,
and aro always in a greater or loss degree under the
influence of prejudice or passion.

* Tlie Civil Rights Bill us Passed.
The Civil Rights bill was again reported from tho
Judiciary Committee in the House' on Tuesday last*
with most of its objectionable features stricken out.
That part of the first section asserting civil rights in
general terms was stricken out, being the following
words, viz.: “ And there shall be no discrimination in
civil rights or immunities among citizens of th e
United States, in any State or Territory of the United
States, on account of race or color, or previous condi
tion of slavery.” The civil rights guaranteed by this
bill are then defined as follows, viz; “The same riglit
to make aud enforce contracts, to sue, be parties apid
give evidence to inherit, purchase, lease ,sell, hold aiid
convey leal and personal property, aud to fnll aiid
equal benefit of all laws and proceedings for the secu
rity of person and property as''is enjoyed bywhjte
citizens, and shall be subject to like punishment,
pains aud penalties, and to none other, any lajw,
statute or ordinance, regulation or custom to the con
trary notwithstanding. The bill was passed—ayfcs,
109; nays, 39. The Republicans voting a^uinat it .were
Mr. Bingham of Ohio, Mr. Blow of Missouri, Mr.
Smith of Kentucky, Mr. Phelps of Maryland, and Mr,
Latham of West Virginia. Mr. Bingham voted
against it because his constitutional amendment, em
bodying the same principle, did not prevail;, and Mr.
Bingham thinks that such rights ought to be first
guaranteed in the Constitution. Such conservative
Republicans as Mr. Delano, Mr. Davis and Mr. Mill
voted for the bill. ■ 1
The telegraph has announced the final passage of
the bill by the Senate, after concurrence in the
amendments of the House.

There are important rumors from England. The
resignation of Earl Russell is talked of, and credence
is given to the report. Conflicts have occurred in • the
new Cabinet ever since its formation; Russell iB said
to be unable to harmonize the antagonistic elements,
and a new doal is probable, when the liberals may
have a chance to try their skill at government. Mean

A Lady Dragged from Her Horae
Horribly Treated* j
A most inhuman outrage was perpetmtod in the
northeast part of Lincoln county a few .days since.
The facts as related to the writer are these: A lady by
the name of Curro, wife of Mr. Nathan Curry* of Lin
coln county, had been to Lynchburg and waa return
ing home alone, about two o’clock in th« afternoon,
aud when within about tWo miles" of her hotn? her
bridle was seized by a man who was hid behind a tree
and whom ahe did not see until he had the bridle tight
in his grasp, vnd she was dragged from her horse aqd
most cruelly treated—choked and beaten in a most
horrid manner, and threatened with instant death ll
she did not stop her screams. Her cries were heard,
however, hy. some men.who were tending a coal kiln! a
few hundred yards from the scene. They hastened
to her assistance, but were too late to get a right til
the -scoundrel. The lady's clothes were badly toiin
and scattered around, and even the ground gave~evi-
denoe that she had had a desperate struggle^ H4r
abuse was so severe as for a time to deprive her of her
reason. Her body was bsdly bruised in many plslefc,
aud her throat became so swollen from the choking
she received that her life was almost despaired air.
But we learn that she is recovering ftOrti her tejurit s
The lady cannot tell positive!v whether the vilBag^wfs

Mexioo to be the New Ibish Republic.—It was
stated in the New York Citizen a few weeks since that
shortly the Irish would have a republic of their ow».
The other night an orator at one of the many Fenian
Cireles in New York said that the paper in qneation
referred to Mexico ; that Louis Napoleon was about
withdraw his troops, not through-fear of tWs Govein-
ment, but to malts room for the legions of th* L F. B;;
that Maximilian had agreed to abdicate on condition of
being proclaimed President of the new republic ; and,
that so soou as tbs republic had been proclaimed, let
ters of marque would be issued against Britiah ship
ping. Ail this tho orator said, and more. Whatever
truth there may be in it, it is certain that the members
of the F. B. expect some great movement to take place
within a few weeks. « -j; .■■
