The bond in this case created a right in the husband as trustee ol'his wife, and aCouit of Equity will carry out the trust. 3. This not bciug a settlement made by the husband upon the wife, was not therefore void against bis creditors, Irccause not re corded. 4. The facts do not make a case of reduc tion to possession by the hushaud in his life time, and therefore the wife's right of sur vivorship was not lost. Judgment affirmed.

Mr. Speake Colfax responded iu a very lengthy addre.i3 ou liehali of the Mouse of KepieneutativeH. The tone of lit speech was bitter against the South for rejecting tbe Constitutional amendments. . Senator Yates, of Illinois, responded on behalf of lm* Senate, who said he represented the Northwest, where it wa* proposed not puly to beat down eopperbeadisiu and modern Democracy, but to demolish it utterly. Me waa very enthusiastic over the late election, and referred to the ‘id and 12 t h chapters of the Epistle t« the Ephesians for the epitaph of the Democratic pariy Being requested to quote the chapters, he respectfully begged to be excused, much to the amusement ol overy one around. Bciug pressed still further, aud offered a Bible, he said : Well, if you insist upon it, I believe it is somethin; in this style; “Ye are without Christ, being alien* t< the commonwealth of Israel, [Laughter.] Without the coveuant I promise, having no hope and withput God in the world.” [L (lighter aud ap^iausc.] Mr. Yates was very emphatic in his opposition to Southern admission, declaring that those States should never come in until every American should have the privilege of going to auy part of this country and en joying its privileges. THE BANQUET. The welcoming banquet took place oar- Monday night. General Miram Walibridge did the honors an«j said: The appeal which a recreant President had made, had been met with a stern rebuke on the part of the people, and it would become the duty of Cod&r^s* noon to put into the national legislation (he means ut bringing tbe Southern States into obedience and sub ordination. If the Executive should resist, it would become the duty of Congress to remove him from office. [Cheers.] If the Southern States should con tinue to set themselves np agaiuat Congress, it u «mld be its dmtv to appeal to the people of those Stales without regard to color. SPEECH OF MB. ST EVEN'S. Hon. Tbad. Stevens, of Pennsylvania, responded, but could not be clearly heard. He attacked the President with vigor, declaring that having been ele vated into power through an unexpected event visited upon the nation for its sins, lie now wished to be king instead of President- iHisaea.] Mr. Steveus said the war wan not over. Its main and find object was pursued by the enemy with relentless energy.— Thu object at t^rst been to rule the whole natiou, by moans of an oligarchy, making neeroes and cop perheads contribuie to the increased power of tbe South through the increase of the number of ita votes, to aeifffi the reins of Governmeut, .ito induce free trade, and to break down the modeaty of the free people of the North. During the war Jeff. Davis was commander-in-chief of the rebel army* with Lee as b*« chief adviser. Now, Andrew John sou was their commander-in-chief, and poor old Wool was their <.htof marshal adviser, and for the nay they had Semmee and Welles. ‘[Laughter.] The people were to decide now whether they were to have Andrew Johnson as President or as King, tar they were told they bad no other choice left” fLaughter.] He wanted the encouragement of the soldiers. Tbe enemy had the .vantage ground, having possession of the White House, aud was dis pensing with a corrupt hand the vast patronage of tbe nation, and yet he had no fears. The army consisted of citizens aa well as soldiers. It bad a few mer cenary officers like the Steedmans, the Dixes and the Wools; bat if the Government were to order Grant, or Howard, or Far rag ut to do its treacherous work, they would break tbeir swords rather than obey. With Sheridan fora leader, and twenty-five or fifty thou sand colored soldiers, they might defy Andrew John son and all who might follow his lead, fiut if the time should ever come when the consplrkl^rs would mualr* audacity equal to their ambition, and. as ones happened in England, attempt to turn the regular may against the people, Congress would not have to mly on the Southern freedmen alone. The nwsef the loyal North would spring to their feet and un sheathe their weapons, as when they heard the first booming cannon of Sumter. rTtCongress be bold, and tbe soldierspf the late wtrwooWtake care of tbe next, and the usurper who nods the hostile forces would have time and leisure to revise his boasted proclamation in one of the em brasures of Fortress Monroe. [Cheers,] The usurper*! head would rest much more quietly, to be sore, on * lap-board anti goose than when oppressed with a crown. [Laughter.] With leas.tban impartial suffrage tli« South, with his consent, should never be recon structed. Ho -would not be coolant with such a puerile work- as universal amnesty and universal suffrage.—Bailiiuove Sun. IMPEACHMENT. A bill has been prepared, and will be presented in the House at an early day, to suspend the official functions pending the trial of any dvll offiasr against whom articles of impeachment shall be fbnnd. This measure is strictly constitutional, and is intended to supply tbe alleged omission in the impeachment clause of that instrument. Although the common law is sufficient without such a statute, yet its en actment is deemed best for the future security of the people.—Wash. Cor. Phila. Press, Dee. 2.
