The Reconstruction Committee continued the examination of witnesses regarding affairs it Mississippi and Georgia, ilen. Sypher, at the request of Menard, the negro member from Louisiana, will present lliinrrd’s credentials to-morrow. Col. Hunt will present certain papers, also Simon-Jones, when the whole matter, without argument, or any recognition of Menard, will go to to the Election Comniittee. The- House bill repealing the militia re strictions, passed the Senate without com ment. Governor Bullock, of Georgia, having been summoned before the ■ Reconstruction Com mittee of the House, and requested to give his opinion as to the proper mode of over coming the difficulties in Georgia, recom mended that there should be a literal execu tion of the reconstruction acts, which required the primal organization of the State Legisla ture to be made by the admission of only those who could take the test oath, or had been relieved of disabilities fey Congress. This course would restore the colored men to their seats without any special legislation, anil place the legislative department of Geor gia in the hands of loyal men. After the adoption by such a body of the fundamental conditions precedent to the State’s admission to the Union, all members eligible under the State Constitution and the fourteenth amend ment would be admitted to seats, and no further action of Congress would be neces sary. The Senate bill granting the rjght of way through the public lands to the New Orleans Chattanooga and Mobile Railroad, was re tailed ro the Committee on Public Roads. The Hrmse bill removing the disabilities of certain citizens of South Carolina was passed. Mr. Sumner’s resolutions regarding the Spanish revolution were disousssed- M r - Bayard characterized them as important, ifesolutions went over. The resolution of the Finance Committee censuring the President’s financial views, was discussed. Mr; Dixon, spoke at length on ■he financial question. He said that the way to resume specie payments was first to insti tute a system of rigid economy; and second, the removal of political disabilities from the Southern people. The resolution finally Passed; yeas, forty-three, nays, six. The House was engaged all day in hearing eulogies on the late Thadeus Stevens. FROM NEW OELEASS. New Oeleans, December 17.—A writ of habeas corpus, returnable this morning, was greeted by Judge DureU yesterday, on peti tion of about thirty seamen, on the steamship Havana, lying here, wflich recently hoisted the Peruvian fiag at Southwest Pass. On the *Tit being returned this morning, the Attor- hey for the petitioners asked that the writ be dismissed, as the Peruvian Consul had granted * release from thejr contract to all who " ished. The writ was accordingly dismissed. The ship's articles embody the stipulation ■hat the crew will not object, during the term dot which they were engaged, to any change °f flag which might occur. This, and the fact that two months advance, in gold, had been paid, for which only about twenty days’ service had been rendered, were the only ob jects ia holding them. A large quantity of tobacco, variously esti mated in value at from a hundred to a hun dred and fifty thousand dollars, was seized yesterday evening, and guards placed over a number of the most respectable tobacco firms 111 the city, to prevent a removal of the to bacco. Cause—alleged internal revenue Hands. New Oeleans, December 17.—The tobacco seizure alluded to in a former telegram amounted to eight hundred bbxes. It was marked “tax paid,” and was in the possession °f a number of responsible firms. The seizure *as made at the instance of Mr. Creecy, the new Assessor. FOREIGN NEWS.

Roebpck, Esq., who writes us from Elberton'nfader date of De cember 14th, that the town was burned out Sunday night The fire caught in the store of CoL J. A. Trenchard about half-past ten o’clock. CoL Tren chard’s store was entirely burned. The fire then extended to the store of S. Franklin & Co., Masonic building. The house and a part of the stock were consumed. From thence the fire extended in both direc tions, burning out Messrs. Brown & Bailey, on the right, and Messrs. Sanders & Smith, on the left Messrs. Hester & Lumpkin, and B. Hester, Esq., were burned out The Gazette office was totally destroyed. The loss, we are sorry to learn, is about $100,000.—Augusta Chronicle'. ► — The Archbishop of Armagh lately made the daring statement in the House of Lords, that if the Protestants could not have places of worship, they must emigrate; and if they em igrated, then Ireland, left to Roman Catho lics. must be governed by the gibbet and Vie sicord. He afterwards tried to soften the bru tality of the speech by explaining that what he meant was, that the difficulty of govern ing Ireland would bo greatly increased by the emigration of the Protestants; but he really meant what be said, and thinks there is no hope of keeping down Catholics except by violent means. , , ^ 1 ) Reported Shooting of the Sheriff of Warren County-—It was reported in the city, yesterday, that the Sheriff of Warren comity was shot a few days since with squirrel shot, and slightly wounded. The names of the party or parties who did the shooting, or any of the circumstances attending" it, we have been unable to learn, but give the rumor for what it is worth.—Augusta CTironide. » i # 1 4 New Term.—A countryman gave as an ex cuse for not leavinghis wagon to take a drjnk, that “there are too many d—d scantelopes about—they might steal something.

The Liberty arrived here this morning with a number of families, who had fled from Augusta. They confirm for mer statements in regard to the depredations of the militia. The Des Arc put her passen gers off a few miles below Augusta, her officers fearing to trust the steamer within their reach, and returned here. The agents of tho White River line have been instructed to hold all freight for Augusta and points above, to pre vent seizure by the military. The Avalanche’s Little Rock special to-night says the outrages committed by the miun. are so flagrant as to provoke the condemna tion of all parties favoring peace and order. The Republican (Radical organ) says this morning: This thing of martial power is not only unconstitutional, but oppressive, in as much as the circumstances of our condition are not of such an alarming character as to justify resort to such arbitaiy, unconstitution al and extraordinary measures os setting aside the whole body of civil law, and we hope the Legislature will pass a law prohibiting fur ther exercise of this power. The Governor’s report to the Legislature shows Upham’s forces in Woodruff only one hnndred and fifty, he had taken fifteen prisoners at Augus ta, and says he will kill them and burn the town if attacked by Rebels. In the southeast the force is two hnndred and fifty colored troops. Martial law has been proclaimed in Conway county, because private letters rep resented half the population as Ku-Klux. He declines to publish toe names of the writers. —^M » « A ■ GEORGIA. Georgia matters are rather complicated in the National Capital at this time. Our able Senators have not as yet been admitted. A few Senators take the gronnd that Georgia is not reconstructed; and that the work must be completely re.modlled. This strange doctrine may or may not be adopted. We think it will fail. Georgia, is in our opinion, recon structed ip strict conformity to law, and we cannot see how Mr. Snmner’s bill, which we publish to-day, can receive favor at the hands of a wise and enlightened Senate. We do not believe it will pass at all, much less in its objectionable form. For the present we shall say little on the subject, believing it un wise and imprudent to speak hastily upon matters where so much is involved. It may not, however, he improper to say that, while in Washington, we did all we conld to flank and prevent the tearing up process thrust upon Congress by a few Georgia gentlemen, who are not altogether as wise as was Solo mon of old. Of thin we may speak more fully hereafter, ' To say that Qeorgja was pot reconstructed in conformity to the several requirements of Congress, is a proposition too absurd to com mand the attention or respect of an ordinary school boy. We know of no logic snfficieuly strong to sustain a proposition so worthless. It is onr wish to save the State, and to for ever perpetuate loyalty and the Union. To this end, we say let reconstruction stand as it is, and give us only such legislation as will secure and carry ont the requirements laid down by Congress ip the reconstruction acts. —Atlanta Era. s— — New England and New Work. “At the late election New York State gave a total vote on the electoral ticket of 849,751. The six New England States gave a total vote for President of 541,502. “Thns it will be seen that New York polls 300,000 more votes than all the New England States. New England has twelve United States Senators, and New York only two. New York has thirty-three electoral votes, while the New England States have thirty- nine.”—Albany Argus. The Iitelligencer some two years ago point ed ont the vicious features and effect m our governmental operations as above stated. Onr views were hutch copied and approved. Had there beep that eqnalify in State repre sentation in the Senate which the Constitu tion might have possibly meant, or might be construed as meaning, there would he eqaality of representation of States in the United States Senate according to their population, and not of (as) States, solely so considered. The Constitution, as it now is, regarded in the view that “no State shall be deprived of its equal representation in the Senate,” can only be changed in that vitally important re gard by calling a convention to make a new constitution. Any sacrifice should be endur ed by the people to get rid of that feature concerning Senatorial fanr.eaentaii.pn which has made such dire mischief "in the land. Sectional and fanatical disorders, and war it" self, with its crushing weight of woes other than of a "fearful taxation for the benefit of a haughty o}as8 of aristocracy, would have neve?- cqme to pass in our history had it not been for the unequal Senatorial representa tion of the United States.—Nat. Intel. Wliat Liquor and Tobacco Costs. Mr. Wells, the Special Revenue Commis sioner, in his annual report shows that the receipts for liquors sold in the United States, at retail, in one yew amp.qnjed to $1,400,000. In the I)istrie£_of Columbia the report states that $10,"376,450 was received by retail liquor dealers.. The report of the Commissioner of Inter nal Revenue furnishes Information as to the amount of cigars and manufactured tobacco upon which duties were paid during the past year. The figures are as follows: Smoking and chewing tobacco, lbs 44,9o0,880 Cigars, number 690,335,052 To these figures may safoly be added one-third for frauds upofi the revenue. This would give the following: Tobacco, lbs 59,8C7,506 Cigars, number 787,113,402 Of the manufactured tobacco there v^as ex- ported ll.OOQ.QQQ }bs- flefocftjng this, we have left for home consomption, 49,867,506 lbs. To the cigars may" be added 15,000,000 for imported, which are not included in the internal revenue returns. This would give 802,113,402 as the actual consumption. The average retail price of manufiietnred tobacco we have ascertained to be about 75 cents per pound, and of oigars, 7 cents each. The ac tual cost to consumers, at these prices, would be as follows: Tobacco *47.400,339 60 Cigars 56,147,938^* Total. ...*1(13.548,877 6* The interest op the funded debt of the United States, at six per cept., is $120,000,000 per annum. This is $17,000,000 more than the people pay for tobacco and cigars.—Ra tional Intelligencer. Man Shoots His "Wife Suicide. and Commits Worcester, Iffass,, December 12.—A wo man named Mrs. Enright, who keeps a gro cery store in Canterbury street, this city, was shot by her husband, Luke TuUy, about noop to-day. Tully was her second husband, and, after an absence of two yearn, returned a few days since. Her servant girl says that, about 12 o’clock to-day she heard a noise in the front store (she being at tho time at work in the kitchen), and on going thither found Mrs. Enright prostrate on the floor, and Tally standing over her with a fonr.harreled revolver in his band- At tho moment of her entrance, Tully fired three shots at his wife, one of which lodged to the baok of her bead, another passed through the fingers of her right hand, and the third lodged in her wrist. The girl pushed Tully away, when Mrs. En right got up and ran out the front door, and fell on the sidewalk. The girl then ran for an officer, and, upon returning, Tally was found lyin'* upon the bed-room floor, having shot himself through the head, ana gashed his throat with a pair of shears- Mrs. En right will recover, hut Tally cannot possibly survive. „ Short Shrift.—Mr. Seward gives the Re publican party just six months to live as. a compact and dominant organization.
