THE BILL TO ARM THE NEGROES IX
THE SOUTH.
The bill from the Military Committee, by
Senator ‘Wilson, providing for the arming
of the loyal militia of the Southern States,
was up in the Senate on Monday, and elici
ted a warm discussion, in which Wilson
(chairman of the committee) had the hardi
hood to declare that more men had been

Senator Morton, on Monday last, intro
duced the following bill, providing for the
redemption in coin of the United States
notes and national currency, and requiring
national banks to redeem their notes in
killed in the South since the close of the re
bellion on account of political opinion than
were slain at the battle of Gettysburg. The
correspondent of the Baltimore Gazette says:
The bill was discussed not only inside but
outside the Senate chamber, and some im
portant revelations were made by eminent
citizens of Louisiana now in this city. These
gentlemen declared that Senators who fa
vored the proposition to arm the negroes of
Louisiana knew not the fearful crater over
which their friends were being suspended.
They state it as an unquestionable fact that
at least 35,000 negroes in Louisiana, ontside
of the city of New Orleans, have been ren
dered desperate by. the operations of the
Freedmen's Bureau, and the promises made,
but never kept by Bureau agents and other
parties who desired to use the blacks for sel
fish purposes. These negroes charge that
they have been deceived, maltreated and
cheated by the carpet-baggers, and they threa
ten vengeance upon every Northern man. It
requires all the prudence and persuasion
their old masters and the conservative citi
zens can command to keep and hold these
desperate blacks in check, and it is appre
hended that if arms be placed in their hands,
oud the train be once fired, that the scenes of
St. Domingo will be thrown in the shade,
and that not a carpet-bagger will be left to
tell the tale. Such is the condition of things
in Louisiana, as reported by old residents fa
miliar with the facts, and they deprecate the
policy of allowing the freedmen arms. The
Senatorial debate on the bill was regarded as
an able one, the proposition being viewed by
different Senators from different stand points.
The speech of Senator Ferry, of Connecticut,
on the proposition to punish the crime of
holding office by persons ineligible under the
fourteenth amendment to the Constitution,
commanded the attention of the whole Sen
ate and is pronounced an effort worthy the
Senate in its better daps. Senators who dif
fered with him in sentiment congratulated
him upon having made a great speech.
The correspondent of the Sun says:
The speech of Senator Ferry this morning
may be regarded as the first hearty response
from any prominent member of the Radical
party to General Grant’s famous declaration,
“ Let us have peace.” Mr. Ferry took broad
ground in favor of a complete and absolute
wiping out of all the political disabilities now
imposed upon the Southern people, and did
not hesitate to assure his associates that such
an act of clemency could not only be safely
performed, but that its inevitable tendency
would be to restore harmony and fraternal
feeling. Mr. Ferry was listened to with great
attention, but his remarks struck too much
at the very base of Radical supremacy to meet
with much favor. It is a matter of regret that
the assertion is warranted that he is without
doubt the only Senator of his party who fa
vors the immediate removal of these unjust
political disabilities.
The Fighting in Calm.
[Havana Correspondence N.'Y. World, Tec. 7.]
Early on the 1st instant, the Spanish war
steamer Venaditto arrived at Nnevitas from
Manati, with a number of wounded soldiers
of Colonel Lono's column, and on the 2d left
for Baga, to bring back from there the
wounded men of Count deVahnaseda’s com
mand. These, according to Spanish accounts,
amount to three officers and forty men, the
killed being also given as amounting to four
officers and sixteen men- These figures, I
have good cause for saying, are much too
low. Not 100 will cover the Count's loss in
killed and wounded. That of the insurgents
is undeniably much larger. Major-General
Gaspar Agueroy Betancourt, their leader, as
you know, the Marquis da Santa Lucia and
Colonel Castillo are all three claimed by the
Spaniards to have been killed.
The Cuban accounts deny the report as far
asit concerns the -Marquis de Santa Lucia,
but admit the death of General Aguero and
Colonel Castillo. The first, it seems, sud
denly found himself during the engagement
near the station of Las Minas, with but eigh
teen men, surrounded by more than one
hundred Spaniards. The whole crowd sur
rendered, and General Aguero was immedi
ately taken before Count de Yalmasedn.
Fully aware that death was his only lot, the
General drew a knife which he had kept con
cealed on his person, and with it endeavored
to stab the Count, but was killed before he
could do so. Colonel Castillo was slain in
the fight of the 28th, and his body removed
to his Santa Isabel estate, situated on the
same dirt road that was followed by the Span
ish troops, apd was found by them on the
next day reposing in the hammock.

Seen what effect this will have on the Repub
licans in other parts of Spain, who appear to
consider the declaration, in advance of the
meeting of the Cortes, that the Spaniards are
in favor of ft monarchy as gratuitous and of
fensive. In the meantime the agitation crea
ted by rival factions would appear to be in
creased by the reported preparations of the
Carlists in Lower Arrngou for a revolt. The
dethroned Queen still has her adherents,
though perhaps her influence is more likely
to be°felt in intrigues |to promote strife and
discord, hoping to benefit ultimately by the
distractions of the country than by any open
display of force. The confidence thus far
reposed In the patriotism of Qen. friffi, the
master-spirit of the revoiution, has been sha
ken by his 7 despotic decree on the enforce
ment of discipline in the army. There are
rival agencies behind the scenes, Napoleon
and Bismarck, who are interested in the re
sults, and the conflicting under-currents of
whose influence may be adding to the general
confusion.—Baltimore Sun.
Murder Made Easy.—The court in New
Albany, Indiana, has refused to entertain the

charge of murder in the first degree against
Mrs. Morton, who shot one Moore dead in
his tracks. She alleges that she killed Moore
because he had written letters' to her con
taining insulting propositions. She does not
produce the letters, however. If she did, we
do not see what defence they would form for
murder. According to this ruling of an In
diana court, all a woman who wishes to take
the life of a man has to do is to decoy him
into a private room, and after shooting him
dead, say he insulted her. “Murder made

A GENERAL DELIVERY OF PRISON
ERS.
The late decision of Judge Underwood in
the case of Caisar Griffin is beginning to pro
duce a state things in Virginia threatening to
the best interests of society. It has been al
ready mentioned that the decision in the case
of Griffin has been followed up by the dis
charge of the colored convict, Sally Ander
son, sentenced to death for arson. The
ground of this discharge was, that one Jus
tice of the County Court which sentenced the
convict, was disqualified by the fourteenth
amendment to the Constitution pf tjie United
States, and that the disqualification of one
annulled the whole proceedings, though there
might have been a competent court without
him. His Honor availed himself of the occa
sion to repent his laudation of the clemency
of the United States government in not hang
ing somebody after the late war, though what
that had to do with the proceedings on hand
he did not vouchsafe to point cut, The sen
timental jurist also gave it as his opinion that
“it was far better for one of the feebler i ace
and feebler sex to escape the extreme sen
tence of the law than lawless usurpation
should be made valid.”
Attorney General Bowden remarked in his
speech on the trial, that under Judge Under
wood’s decision jn tlje Ctesar Griffin case,
there are only two judges in the State of Vir
ginia competent to hold a point, and that he
might go ont into the street and shoot a man
down without fear of punishment. Since the
28th day of July last, when the fourteenth
amendment was declared to have become a
pnrt of the constitution, one hundred and
fifty-nine convicts have beon received into
the Virginia penitentiary, five of whom were
convicted of mnrder, and j^ll of whom Judge
Underwood has tbo power to turn loose upon
the community. It is stated that writs of
habeas corpus afe being now prepared for
bringing several of these gentlemen before
Judge Underwood, au4 ft general jail and
penitentiary delivery YOVflfl appear to be
only dependent upon the leisure of the judge
to give attention to the various caseB. The

eral Stoneman to arrest and imprison the
