Washington, May 24.—The report of ,[ R . house eomniiltee on the Judiciary, to loioiiipany the joint resolution orop. ,smj constitutional amendment on t lie subject ‘,C polygamy, is a long doeument, dealing in u, tail with ail branches of the subji et. \ considerable portion of the report is de voted to a discussion showing that congress I,as the power to deal with tliisquestiofi in the territories. As to the remedy nr> nosed, the report says: "Your committee deeply depjore, uHi 1 good citizens, the existence of 1 lie i vii, and doom it to bo of the first ini* nortanee that while the re.mody shall lie radical, it shall lie in . liilrc consi-tenc- the constitutional principles >f u.ir cm of government, and shall com i ”.nl if...

To jiuti- s i the offender may bo accomplished by hut to extirpate the system, to noli* ikileit from this union of free ei' i.'izcd commonwealths, will require a change in the constitution. - ’ The religious aspect ol the matter is dis cussed as follows: “It has been the settled op.,ii' :i ol'the best defenders of religi ms conscience that when religious faith ja r- mils crime, its sincerely cannot shield it from tile penalty of the civil law. As long ns it is a question of faith between a man and his God, tilt civil law cannot interfere; lint when faith breaks out into acts against tlic laws of society, it cannot give immuni ty to the criminal. If this were not so, guilt would be quick to put on the cloak of religion to screen itself from justice. •• Y'our committee feels satisfied that no thing promised by them to the house will in the slightest degree trench upon the sacred canons of religious liberty. it seems to the committee that these pro visions secure to the union, the courts and congress of the union, complete authority to extirpate the system of polygamy and iis kindred offense of polygamous associa tion or ’cohabitation between the sexes.’ J'be crimes are fixed by constitutional iletinilion; the punishment is prescribed by ' .ingress, and the judicial power of the I'nited Stales will enforce the constitution against all offenders.” The interview with Judge Tucker, the ! chairman of the judiciary committee, sent nit on Friday night, defines what the jiro- j posed amendment is intended to eilect. I tleman, but not good looking enough to be governor this time. Mb* Mm) Aiuh-rvni. New York, May 21.- At the farewell performance of Miss Mary Anderson, in I ‘ Pygmalion and Galatea” and “Comedy ' and Tragedy,” at the Star theatre Saturday night, she was called before tile foot- . lights three time* after the fall of the cur tain in the Anal scene. Then repeated cries for "Speech, speech.” went up, and finally Mis- Anderson again came forward. She seemed\erv coy and onfused, press ing her hands together and looking at her : rings in a very nervous way. Finally, alter a pause, the length of which Was almost painful, shcraised In r head and said: ”1 am very grateful lor. an i i a■ m >st ovi rwhelnu d bv Inis gem n ■, ■. pressiou of good feeling toward me. i have been accused of being iuditfereut to the apiu'.isal bestowed upon me.

I lie l'rcMth’iit l'oiuts Out n Lilllu of II in Privulc Ti’iisinn Hill*. Washington, May 24.—The president lias vetoed four private pension bills grant ing pensions to Dudley B. Braneh, Louis Metelier, Edward Ayres and James C. Chandler. The president gives his reasons at length in respect to each ease. In the case of Branch, he says: “I am convinced that the rejection of this claim by the i pension bureau was correct, and think its j action should not lie reversed. In the J committee’s report, the statement is found that the beneficiary named in the bill was in two different hosjiitals during the year 1863; and yet it is not claimed that the history of his hospital treatment fur nishes any jiroof of the injury upon which liis claim is now based.” The president withholds his approval in Meteher’s ease ujjoii the ground that he j finds nothing in his examination of the facts connected with it which impeaches the value of the surgeon’s certificate upon which the adverse action of the pension bureau was predicated. in vetoing the Ayres bill, the president says: “It appears that the claimant served in liis regiment two years and nearly eight months after the alleged injury, and until he was mustered out. it is represented to j me by a report from the pension bureau j that after nis alleged wound, and in May ir June, 1863, the claimant deserted, and in Jul j’of that year was arrested in the' state of Indiana and returned to duty with out trial. If this report is correct, tlie party now seeking a pension at the hands ofthe government for disability incurred in service seems to have been capable of considerable physical exertion, though not ] very creditable, within a lew weeks after he claims to have received the injury upon which his application is based.” iu the last case—that of Chandler—the president, after reviewing the various ap plications made for a pension and their re jection, says: “There still remained an up- i peal to congress, and probably there were not wanting those who found their inter- i ests in advising such an appeal, and who ! had at hand congressional precedents which promised a favorable result. | That the parties interested did not miscalculate the chances of success is dem onstrated by the bill now before me,which in direct opposition to the action of the I pension bureau grants a pension to a man 1 who, though discharged from enlistment ! for a certain alleged disability, made two applications for a pension based upon two distinct causes—both claimed to exist two months prior to such discharge, and both dili'erent from the one upon which lie ac cepted the same, and notwithstanding the tact that the projjosed beneficiary, alter all these disabilities had occurred, passed an | examination as to his physical fitness for I liis re-enlistment, actually did re-enlist,aud served till finally mustered out at the close of the war. If any money is to be given tins man from the public treasury, it should not be done under the guise of a pension.” .UiiBiinm l.\f'iciuM*. I Birmingham, Ala. I Messrs.
