“A Great Serration.”—It is tele
graphed that the election of a Bonapsrtiat
Deputy from one of the departments of
France oaused a great sensation at Paris
—being regarded as threatening the over
throw of tbe present government. We
do not see why it should have created aoy
alarm, if France really has a genuine re.
publican government like the United
States. Have they no “returning boards"
in that oouutry ? Cannot an obnoxious
or unfriendly legislator be “oounted" out?
And even if the vote in his favor is too
strong to allow of his exclusion by “count
ing in*' his opponent, oannot a file of sol
diers be sent into the Chamber to lead
him ont ? France is evidently green in
tbe science of republican government.
We manage things hotter in this oouutry.
Wa learn from the Atlanta papers that
on Wednesday Judge Pitman wan served
with a writ from the Uoited States Dis
trict Court, claiming jurisdiction over the
case of Tunis G. Campbell. Out own
dispatch of Wednesday says that Camp
bell was remanded to j til, with jpders to
be forwarded to the penitentiary. So we
are permitted to hope that the claim of
the Federal Court was abandoned, or not
pressed. Campbell was convicted in a
Htate court of a violation of a law of tbe
Mtate. How a Federal court can interpose
a claim of jurisdiction in a cane of this
kind, without oloiining authority to do
away with all Htate law and all the ma
chinery for the execution of the law of the
Stale, pasHoa our comprehension. It
seeois to us to be the moat extraordinary
claim of patatnount Federal authority that
has yet been made. Hut we repeat the
hope that it was not pressed, and will
not be.
Alabama Legislature.
Wednesday, 20th. —In the Senate,among
tbo now bills introduced was one by Mr.
Robinson, re-dlstriding the State into
eight Congressional Districts; also a bill
to authorise tbe Sheriff of Chambers
oounty to oxoouto the duties now required
of Constables, which was amended by
adding several other counties, then a
motion war made to include all the conn
ties, and finally the bill was referred. A
bill to reduce the per diem and mileage of
membersof the Unneral Assombly elicited
a good deal of >.,.Outo. A number of
amendments were offered, and some
adopted, but a special order out off
further notion on it, The speoial order
was tbe bill to exocule the power of dis
posal of lands donuted by Congress to
railroads. It was dismissed uutil adjourn
ment.
In tbe House, several memorials from
the National Board of Trade wore pro.
sauted, and referred to tbo Judiciary
Committee. One, to require all members
of any firm, to register name of firm, and
individual members, witlf County Clerk,
another, to make only capital stock of
an assooiatiou created for the purpose of
carrying on any business liable for its
debts, another to hold in ebook the power
of railroads to make overcharges, but not
to fix rates of freight; to require all rail
roads to assume the direot control of bus
iness of their lines, and not delegate it to
special freight lines; that grain shipped
in bulk should be required to be delivered
in Bame quantity as received. A bill' to
prohibit the issuing of liquor license in
Henry county was amended by adding
Barbour, and theu referred. Several
other local bills were presented. The
“dead-fall bill”—to prevent the sale of
certain agricultural products after dark—
was taken up, and the Radical members
filibustered to defeat it until the hour for
taking up the Revenue bill. This bill
was considered during the remainder of
the morning and all the afternoon ses
sion, without final action.
Pinobuack. —It appears that the delay
in admitting Pinohback to a seat in tbe
United States Senate was caused by an
error in his credentials. It is stated that
the certificate affirmed that the eleotion
had been held on Monday and Tuesday,
whereas the law requires tbe first ballot-
ings to bo taken on Tuesday. This may
be a mere pretext to account for a delay
due to a division in the lladiosl ranks. It
is evident that tbe admission of Pinch-
back on the strength of an eleotion at this
session will weaken Kellogg. The New
Orleans Picayune, of Wednesday, thinks
it very doubtful whether Pinohback will
be admitted at all. It says:
TBE S11AT1NO Or PINCHRACE
in the Uuited States Senate seems any
thing but sure, even from a Radical
standpoint. Dispatches were received in
this city yesterday from Morton and
other leading Republican Senators, in
which doubts were expressed asto their
ability to ferae Pinchbeck through upon
his old credentials.
Morton and those with him have no
special interest in seatiug Pincbback, ex
cept se far as it msy asaiat in fixing the
atatua of tbe Kellogg Government. To
oeat him upon hia new credentials, it is
thought, would not help Kellogg, bnt
Pinohback teems to have chosen tbeae in
despair of auccese with the old onea
Kellogg telegraphed to West, on Mon
day, that tbe only solution he could see
to the trouble would be to have a resolu
tion passed through Congress sustaining
him (Kellogg) in his seat, hat up to the
last accounts West, who is a pretty fair
Rocountcnt, had not been able to figure it
up in that way. Pinoh is evidently in
-trouble, und if he is not fillibnstcred out
of uxiatenue as a Uoited States Senator
we shell be very rouoh mistaken.
The enggostions snd recommendations
contained in the awsssge of President
Grant, which we published yesterday
morning, would not have been considered
very s'gnifloant or extraordinary if made
in one of hie regular annual communica
tions to Congress. But it eras a speoial
message, devoted to a single sub] rot, and
it nrged promptness on the part of Con-
great in making tha warlike provisions in
dicated. As the p-esent session of Con
gress oannot last longor than six weeks
more, and as thore is already before It a
mass of important business whioh it osn
hardly get through with, the emergency
calling for suoh amesssge must be consid
ered en urgent one. What ia it? There
is hardly room for doubt that the condi
tion of our relations with Bptin is what
prompts the message. Late advices
from Wasbiuglon inform ns that
the Administration had determined
to make a mure enorgetie demand for im
mediate indemnity for the Viiginina cap
ture and massacre. Tbe recent change
of the form of government in Bpain is
believed to heve had mnch influence in
the adoption of a sterner course towards
hat oouutry. As long as the republican
government waa struggling to maintain
itself, and had to avoid unpopular conces
sions, tbe Administration at Washington
indulged it; but It has no snch consider
ation for the luonaroby, end proposes now
to demand an immediate settlement. Such
is the explanation given, and if oorreot,
it proves that'Gen. Grant ia more solicit
ous about the forms of republican govern
ment elsewhere than for the spirit end
essence of popular government at home.
Bnt, however that may be, it is said that
the Administration plan contemplates the
recognition of the belligerent rights of
Cuba (wbiob, in view of its prox
imity to the United States end
the strong sympathy and aggressive char
acter of our people, wonid soon result in
the overthrow of Hpaiuiah rule on the
island) if Spain does not quickly accord
the indemnity demanded. It is given
out that “when the fact became fully
established that the coup d'etat had takan
place, Secretary Fish instructed Minister
Cushing nut to reoogni/.o the new Gov
ernment until he had satisfactory assur
ances that Bpain would make immediate
arrangements to settle tho Virginiua oase.
Upon the presentation at Madrid of this
demand tbe Spanish Minister of Foreign
Affa'rs refused to treat upon the subjool
at all until this Government had formally
through ita accredited Minister, reoog-
nized the monarohy. This refusal led to
numerous dispatches, the Madrid authori
ties persistently declining to assume any
other position, and Secretary Fish being
equally determined.”
In this connection wo copy the follow
ing from the Washington National He-
publican (Administration paper) of Tues
day lest:
It is understood,from inquiry in proper
quarters, that negotiations between tho
Uuited States snd Hpsin on questions
growing out of the Vtrginius affair and
other matters of controversy between the
two countries nre not progressing favora
bly. That this condition of nffuirs is
fully appreciated by both Governments
ia olnsrly shown try tho faot that Spain ia
couoontratiug a large force of war vessels
in the West Indies, and is also preparing
to reinforco her army in Cuba, and this
Government has decided not to seud any
more vessels of war to foreign station--,
except tho Brooklyn, to tha South Atlan
tia Station. Beaides this, it is i cite tided
to keep all iron-olads and other vessels
now in rendezvous in the Gulf in loadi-
ness for immediate sea service. The forts
on the Atlautio seaboard are being quietly
put in order. Large quantities of sup
plies are understood to be stored at Key
West and other easily accessible points on
the Gulf coast. The English Govern
ment seems also to be fully aware of tho
war-like condition of affairs, and are con
centrating an unusually large fleet at
Jamaica.
of the nation at thia perilous crisis.”
We eopy, also, the following from the
Macon Telegraph, a paper that has hereto
fore been indifferent (to say tbe least) to
Mr. Hell:
“Thia is one occasion and emergency
when not only Southern, bnt national,
donsideration* should bs made to override
partisan and personal lines,
‘ The S’ate, the country, has need of
the mighty intellect of Mr. Hill on tbe
floor of Congress, to grapple with snd
strangle tho infernal maohinations of the
enemies of free government, ere the
doom of the republic is sealed.
“In debate, be would play with tho
Radical rabble as the cat does with its
prey, and if needs bo, annihilate tbe
strongest of their champions by the power
of hia withering sarossui, silvery elo
quence snd irresistible logie.
“Again, Mr. Hill bss dose tbs Democ
racy “some servioe," snd no one man
aided more than be to defeat so signally
tbs infamous Whitcly. Let ns show that
the party is not ungrateful by sending
him to Congress without opposition.
HON. B. H. HILL.
We are glad to see that sagacious and
patriotic men of all parta of tho State,
disregarding old party prejudices, are
uniting in a call for tbe eleotion of Hon.
11. H. Hill as tbe Representative of tbe
itth Congressional District. Iteceut ocour-
reuoes have shown that in tbe next Con
gress the South will have need of the
services of her ablest and strongest men.
We have lately seen how much the
apeeohee of Ger. Gordon have done to
viudi Aits our section from the malignant
charges of its oppressors. But we want
other strong, ready and hold men in both
houses of Congrohs to back Gen. Gordon
and his present associates, and no man
who kuowa him, doubts that Mr. Hill is
eminently qualified for this work. It is
innob to be regretted that we have him
not in the House uolv, to refute the
statements and logio and expose the
wiles of such men as Butler snd Hoar.
That oannot be, but the people of the
Dili District have now an opportunity to
aloota Representative who would take
tbe lead in tbe next House, and we hope
that they will improve it.
Not from Georgia alone, but from
other Southern States, come appeals for
the election of Mr. Hill. The New Or
leans Bulletin of Tuesday oalls, in thte
name of down-trodden Louisiana, for his
eleotion to Congress. It says :
“In this supreme hour of our danger,
it is the duty of tbe South, as well aa of
the North, the East, the West, to seud to
the battle ground none but her ablest,
her wiseat, her most skillful champions.
It is no derogatiou from the merits of
other gentlemen to say that among all the
publie men iu the land, we know of nono
to exoel Mr. Hill iu any of tbe qualities
of the statesman. Patriotism, genius,
eloquence, he possesses them all. On
every occasion that ho has made his ap
pearance before his countrymen, his ut
terances have left s profound impression
upon their minds; snd in the discussion
of,the Louisiana question especially he
has shown a comprehension of the faots,
and the principles involved, and
a mastery of all the details, whioh
are full of hope for this suffering people,
should his fellow-citiaens see fit to send
him to the House of Representatives, at
its next session. Hia presenoe on the
floor of Congress by the side of Spencer,
Gibson, Ellis and Levy, would be a bright
promise of a hotter fate for poor Louis
iana than now darkens the sky, and not
only Louisiana, but the whole South, the
entire oonntry, will rejoice at the acoes
aion of tha gifted patriot to the eoanells
POINTS OF THE REPORT.
We copy from the New York Herald
the following synopsis of the report of
tbe Congressional Committee sent to in
vestigate Louisiana—the first committee,
consisting of two Republicans snd one
Democrat. As we are likely to have an
other end a very different report in a few
days, it is best to have the data by whioh
to compare oonulnaioua:
First—That the last eleotion in Louisi
ana was, in tbe words of the committee,
“full, fair, free and peaceable.”
Second—That it roaulted in the election
of a Demooratio majority of twenty-nine
in the lower House of the Legislature.
Third—That the repott of the Itelui n-
ing Board waa fraudulent, uuju.t and
contrary to the very law under which it
acted.
This carries us to tbo assembling of the
Legislature. Here we find these faots un-
disunted -. —
First—The Returning Board baa pre
pared a li-t of one hundred and six mem
bers, of whom, under its manipulations,
fifty-three were Republicans, as was sup
posed, and fifty-three Democrats. Thus
this Board attempted to set aside tho
will of the people of the Htate.
Second—One hundred and two members
met on tbo 4th of January and procoodod
to ohoose a Speaker, the Republiuana
psosent actually taking part in toe pro
ceedings by nominating a candidate for
Speaker and voting for him, by uooept-
ing appointments as part of a Committee
ou Credential! and organizing with this
committee and by their votes m tbs House
on the Speakership giving a quorum,
which tbe Democrats then pissaut would
not atone have had. Wiltz received fifty-
five votes, Hshu (Republican,) two, aud
one was blank ; and fifty-six is the con
'stitutionsl quorum. When the members
were sworn in fifty-one Democrats and
five Republicans took tbo oath, making
an indisputable and. regular quornm of
the House.
Third—The Legislature was thereafter
dispersed by Uuited Slates troops.
Fourth—The Republicans proceeded to
organize, but—here is t'le iinportaut and
vital point—they had and have no quo-
rum, and oannot, therefore, act as a Leg
islature. They msy adjourn from day to
day; bnt, under the Louisiana constitu
tion, osn do none of the aots of a Legis-
latnre.
Fifth—llouoe Louisiana has to-day no
regulariy organized and competent lower
House of Legislature. It cauuot have s
quorum, oven on the report of Ihe Re
turning Board.
Sixth- llouce the protended eleotion of
Pinchbeck is a fraud and void.
Scvsuih—And, fiually, nothing is in the
way of the assembling sud constituting
of a legal Housa except Federal bayonets.
If Congress w-11 remove them tbe YViltz
House, tbo only regular one, would at
onee assemble.
agents, and set them st work; that tbs
Pustra istet General sCould reopen bis
Pos'offices and estab i*b his mail routes;
tbat tbe Attorney General should look
after the re-eatablisbmsnt of the Federal
Courts, wi:h their Judges, Marshals, and
Aitorneya; in short, that tbe machinery
of tbe Uuited Stales Government should
bo set in motion, that its laws should be
faithfully executed and vigorously en
forced, and that everything like domestic
violence nr insurrection should bs re
pressed ; bnt tbe pnblie authorities and
private citizena should remain unmoles
ted, it not found iu actual hostility to the
Government of tbe Union. In a word, it
was a plan based upon the Conilitution
of tbe Uuited States.
That night Abraham Linooln passed
from earth. Through the madness of an
aBrassi--, the Southern people lost a len
ient judge, n just snd generous friend.
The plan fur their peace aud safety, upon
which the morning hoars of his last day
bad beau spent, was taken op by bis suc
cessor; but tbe embittered publio feeling
which followed his murder ren
dered both Congress and Ihe
people far less ready to acqniesoe iu its
adoption. From that time to this tho ef
forts thut have been made to carry it out
have met with au amount of opposition
and a degree of sneoess and failure that
are now among tbe familiar faots of .his-
lory. I still think that this first plan for
tbe reconstiaction of the Southern States
was the liest and wisest one of all. It
would have bie i fortunate for tbe South
and the Uuion if it had been adopted then.
It will be fortunate for tbe South and the
Union if it shall be adopted now. But it
is not to be accomplished by mere denun
ciation of what ia or has been done wrong
It is not enough to denounce tbe wrong;
it is nec'.-BS'iry to find ont and apply
tho remedy. Tbat remedy is
not now within the power
of political parties or of public meetings.
It is not within our power on this floor.
It is not even within the power of the
Pieiident. It is only witbiu the power of
tbe poop o of the United States, tbrongh
their Representatives iu Congress assem
bled. It Is right and proper, therefore,
thst our resolutions should be addressee
to them, invoking their prompt and pa
triotic action. And what is tbe remedy ?
You have it in the pending resolutions—
Congressional action to define and enforce
tbe faithful adherence of all oonoerned to
the respective dnties therein enumerated
and prescribed by the Constitution of the
United States. In the oase under discus
sion the presence and aid of Federal mili
ta.-y force seems to have been solioited by
both parties to a Slate Legislative contro
versy. Clearly a condition of affairs so
anomalous and so extraordinary is one re
quiring early Congressional attention, to
declare what are the respective rights,
dn'ies and obligations, in Louisiana to
day, of soldiers aud of citizens.

RECONSTRUCTION.
President Lincoln's Plan—Speech of
Hon. Frederick W. Seward
In tbe Assembly.
We give below tbe speech of Hon.
Frederick W. Seward iu the New York
Assembly, Thursday, on tbe Louisians
resolutions. In publishing it, the Albany
Journal says that Mr. Seward gives the
first public und full aeoount of a must in
teresting historical event—tbe plan of re
construction agreed upon ut a meeting of
President Lincoln's Cabinet on tho very
day of the President's as-ussinalion. In
tbe illness of his father, Mr. Seward was
himself present on that occasion aa the
representative of tho State Department,
and participated in the oounoil. Mr. Sew
ard spoke as follows;
The questions about Louisiana are not
new ones. On Ihe coutrary, they Aru very
old ones. They arose immediately upon
tho close of the war. Ou tbo tuorniug of
the 14th of April, 1S(>5, when Richmond
aud Petersburg had fallen, aud Sherman
whs holding Johnson's army at buy,every
thing betokened that peace was ut hand.
President Linooln called a Cabinet moot
ing at the Eiecutivu Mansion, and invited
to participate in it the viotorions General
to whom Lee surrendered at Appomatox.
At suoh a meeting, in such a time, there
could ho but oue question, and that n
question of transcendent importance—
tuo question of reconstruction, restora
tion, or re-establishment of ths seceded
States in their former relations as mem
bers of the Federal Union. The confer
ence was long and earueat, with little
diversity of opinion, exoept as to details.
One of the diffictillies of the problem was,
who ahould be reaogniied us State author
ities. There was a loyal Governor in
Virginia. Thera were military Govern
ors in some of the other States. Rut the
Sonthern Legislatures ware, for tbe most
part, avowedly treasonable. Whether
they should be allowed to oontinue uutil
they committed come new overt act of
hostility; whether the Governor should
bo requested to order uow elections;
whether such elections should he ordered
by the General Government—all those
were questions raised. Among many
similar expressions of the President, iu
tbat terse and homely mode of speech,
tho memory of which still lingers pleas
antly in ths li arts of tbe American peo
ple, he siiid : “We esu't undertake to run
State Governments iu all those Southern
States. Their people must do tbat,
though I reckon nt first they may do it
badly." Tte Secretary of War, Mr. Stan
ton, produced some sheets of paper on
whioh be had drafted the outlines of a
tint of rooonstruetion, embodying the
President's views, and, as I understand,
those of meet of the o'her members of
toe Cabinet. In substance it was, that
the Treasury Department should take
possession of ths Cnstom Houses, and
proceed to oolleot the revenues; thst ths
War Department should garrison or de
stroy the forts, take possession of arms
and munitions and maintain the
publio peace; that the Navy De
partment should iu like manner oc
cupy ths harbors, lake possession of navy
vtuds, ships and ordnance; that the In
terior Department ahould tend out its
surveyors, toad, pension, sad Indian
dogue
