GRAHAM, FROM NORTH OARO- From the National Intelligencer, 17th uH... The Third House of Congress The Star Chamber Exposed. We cannot forbear recording on? de- lVbcf»tc conviction that the object of in stituting the.Joint Committee of Fifteen, usually denominated the ^Reconstruction Committee of Congress,” was to work a revolution. We have repeatedly argued, in support of this opinion, from the acts declarations of leaders, as we had jTtffrflc necess ter them. In the following somimfirfcartion, dtl additional 9”d ftost lizqwrtatft Insight is aftofilcd into the method whereby an artificial public opiti-^tpossi'ble to canvas^ tfieutyor to offer con- ion in the North should be manufactured, j tradietpiy evidence. My sole parpose is such as would render more plausible the *,to aid the committee, eo far as this State preconcerted reasons to be assigned for a is concerned, in the ascertainment of series of measures fatal to the liberties of i truth, and to guard against ex parte testi mony from unknown or irresponsible sources. If, therefore, the committee will at any time furnish notice of the points onf.which evidence is desired, or of prejudicial testimony which it is neces sary to meet, my colleagues and myself will gladly avail ourselves of its permis sion to offer such relevant proof as may be in our power. I am, very respectfully, yours, W- A. Graham. Hon. Wm. P. Fessenden, Senate U. S. To prevent misconception, I esteem it proper to remark that in giving these let ters to the public, no reflection is intended on the motive of the committee, much less on those of its honorable chairman in the Seuate, as a gentleman with whom, through a personal acquaintance of many years, I have ever maintained the kindest and most respectful personal relations.— But it is obvious that, from inadvertence, or a different view of the subject on the part of the committee, or from misappre hension on my part, I have been disap pointed in the expectation of being al lowed to hear what was imputed to my State as demerit, and of counteracting it, if I could-^a mistake from which some injustice has resulted. My inference, from the correspondence, certainly was that the committee, when they should reach the matLer touching North Carolina, would notify us of the points on which evidence was desired, and would afford an opportunity to apply to adverse testimony the ordinary tests of truth, as well as of combatting it, if, in our judgment, proper to be done, by witnesses called by our selves. I was, therefore, surprised, a few days since to lcnrn that the committee bad made report of the evidence taken by them, and obtained an order for its publi cation—a proceeding which, in a legisla tive body, as in a court of chancery, I the Senate ■ presume, implies that all the evidence that body, j has been taken that it is designed to re ceive. This inference is confirmed by the application for and adoption of the additional order to print 10,000 extra copies. It imports that the case, as to the facts, is fully made up, and that upon these it is to be submitted to tbe judgment of the two Houses of Congress, and the still higher arbitrament of public opinion. Now, I most respectfully protest that, if, upou anything contained in all this evi dence, the people of the State of North Carolina shall be condemned, or kept in a state of condemnation without a hear ing, when she was entitled to be heard. Cf all tbe testimony received by the committee, there is not a single affidavit having a specific reference to her; and bring forward countervailing evidence, by requesting that there might be sum- if this supposition be not correct, by moned another officer of the Frcedmen’s Tecumseh. - . , -—.-a , I have heard many great orators, but I reason ot the tact stated by you, that the Bureau, some time on duty at Fayetteville, the seige of Port Hudson, mule meat was ! never saw one with the vocal powers of credentails of gentlemen claiming to be ;~North Carolina, who had equal opportu- ' 1 " ** ..... — - - _ - .

FROM THE HON. SENATOR ELECT LINA. For tbe National Intelligencer. The debate in the Senate, on yesterday, upon the order to print ten thousand copies of tho report of the Joint Com mittee oil “Reconstruction,” detailing the evidence taken before that committee as to the condition of political sentiment in the several States of the South, and their fitness for representation in Cou- gress, in which allusion was made to the Course pursued by the committee in refer ence to the State of North Carolina, and nn application submitted by me that her members elect should be permitted to bear what might be alleged to her preju dice, and, if they deemed it proper, to cross-examine the witnesses against her, if any, and to adduce other testimony, renders it necessary that I ask of you the favor to publish the following correspon dence. It was instituted solely for the attainment of truth, and thereby, as I trusted, to protect the character and rights of the State and people I was deputed in part to represent. The President of the Senate, at my request, had done me the honor to present my commission as a Sen ator elect. Though it wan laid on the table in conformity to precedents in other cases, and I was not admitted to the ex ercise of the functions contemplated, it still, in my conception, devolved on me the duty, in conjunction with my respect ed colleagues elected to both. Houses,, to observe the proceedings of the publtc authorities, and when occasion might seem to invite or justify it, to intervene for explanation, so far as it might be al lowed, in defense of the interest and honor of our State and the fair fame of her people. Seeing that an order to authorize the committee to send for per sons and papers had passed on motion of its chairman in Mr. Fessenden, of Maine—a proceeding understood to imply that evidence is to be taken and a searching and thorough investigation to be had—*1 applied for Heave to be present at the examinations •pertaining to the State of North Carolina, as will be seen in the letters following: I had no desire or wish to he examined as a witness myself. I should have con sidered myself rather as occupying the place of ^olfnseror advocate of the State. And ir the committee had intimated a wish for such information, would have taken pleasure in furnishing them the address of gentlemen in every section of the State, whose acquaintance, whose in tegrity, whose intelligence, whose loyalty and interests, and identification with the country, qualified them to speak of the condition of affairs and the state of feel ing and opinion towards the Governmont of the United States with full knowledge; men whose ambition has been chastened by the fires of adversity, whose afflictions and sacrifices would satiate a generous foe, whose desire is to re-establish the constitutional relations of all the States with the Federal Union, and, as prepara tory to this, to disarm the spirit of re venge and the remorseless passions engen dered in a great revolution, which, by reason ot its want of success, many are unable to distinguish from a petty rebel lion. And before Congress and the people, to which this evidence is submitted for their verdict and judgmeut, I respectfully claim that the State of which I am a citizen and a servant, is not to he affected injuriously by any evidence received by this committee. She has in good faith submitted herself to all the requireinants in that scheme of policy prescribed by the President from the Potomac to the Rio Grande ; is obedient to every law of the Union; is with heavy sacrifices pay ing the arrearages of taxes of former years to the United States, as well as present levies, and not arrogantly, but confidently, appeals to that sense of jus tice and those remembrances of ancient friendships which shall restore to her the full fruition of, her rights 9 a State in the American Uuion. « W.

But it cannot escape investigation, that in a State of a million inhabitants, the only witness called to speak of her condition, the sentiments and ruling motives of her people, should be Lieut. Col. Dexter H.

Dear Sir: It is not customary to allow a cross-examination of witnesses before a committee appointed to report on a sub ject not involving individual trials.

The committee is quite willing, how ever, to examine any witnesses who may be produced luring knowledge of the subject matter, to any reasonable exient.

Graham. Hillsborough. N. C., Jaa. 29, ’66. Dear Sir: I am much obliged by yours of the 24ih. I had supposed the province of your committee ki embrace that of a Committee of Elections and Privileges, before which I take the rule to be, with out exception, that persons claiming to be members are permitted to hear what may be adduced against their claim?, and State will not do justice to its negro pop- alatioa in their new condition of freedom. I do not design to impeach the integ rity cf t his gentlest**- He is spoken of in terms of high respeet by persons of our common acquaintance. It has so hap pened that I have not met him. But surely his opinions, loosely expressed, as they are in his affidavit, (a*d nothing more fully illustrates the importance of cross-examination than the want of pre cision in the language of his statement,) formed by intercourse, as he admits, be rewarded as above by Stevens, Sumner, efc al. A Question Easier Asked than Answered.—The New York Times, asks, “ Where and how did Tennessee get out of the Uniou ?” It puts the ease thus: Mr. Johnson of the United States Sen ate, and Mr. Maynard, of the House of Representatives, remained in their seats as loyal Representatives from the State of lw thaD'on7fourth*of"the~p€Op!e j alter the ordinance ofMcesaioD of the State; hie ratme statement of a 1 war adopted b, that State. If the, "ere design to repudiate tile rebel debt (trhat: entitled to the,r seats then, Congress of is meant by this I do not comprehend);; his sweeping denunciation that “ Union j men and freedmen stand a poor chance I for justice in the State eourts,” (an asper sion upon the judicial officers of the State recently chosen by a Legislature elected under the restricted system of suffrage ordained by the proclamation of the President and Provisional Governor, as well as an injustice to the general sen course regarded the secession ordinance as null and void. If, therefore, secession did not take Tennessee out of the Union, when, and liow did she get out ? If Mr. Mavnard was entitled to his seat in 1861, after Tennessee had seceded, why is he “ kept out in the cold ” now t sheep and hog f had been eaten. Many of the soldiers swore they wouldn’t eat it; while others, just as determined, said they would eat anything, “ Daddy Long- legs,' 1 as they humorously called Gen. Gardner, would issue to them as rations. But the beginning- was everything—who was to take the initiatory in the matter, so as to give the example to others, “ there was the rub.” Gen. Gardner, brave as lie is nobJcbcaried, offered fifteen pounds from the first mule killed for his own mess, to show his that he was willing to eat the same dainties provided for them. His example was followed by nearly all the command. Among the officers of the post, there was a certain Arkansas Captain, eommissary in Gen. Beal’s brigade, who eould not bring his mind to the “ sticking point.” Swallow the undiluted mule he wouldn’t, and he couldn’t; and finally swore he'd be aurn- cd if he would not starve first. His brother officers often joked and quizzed him upon his delicacy in the matter, but of no avail—the Captain could not be in duced to Bolace his “ internal arrange ments ” with roast or fried mule, no mat ter how hungry he might be. One day, while sitting in the rear of our quarters, indulging in an excellent hash, the only dish upon the table except “ hoe cake,” the captain stepped up, and seeing us busily engaged at the meridian repast, inquired the nature of the dish which seemed so luxuriant to the palate. We invited him to partake of such as we had to offer and satisfy himself on the point. “ It is nothing but a hash made of a piece of the last milch cow in the port,” encourageingly said we and continued eating as if life depended upon its rapid- ity. “ Hash, eh! last milch cow killed !” soliloquized the captain, as he slowly sea ted himself and commenced “ shovelling” out a plateful of the fragrant hash.— “ Why, I thought the last cow was killed a few days ago ?” “ Oh, no, there was one saved on the sly by the butcher, but old Frank smelt it out, an<J gave order* to have it killed at once—got a nice piece from the butcher for old acquaintance sake,” said we, as if beef had been a common article of consumption with us all the time. The eaptain sahDbo more, but “ went in ” with an appetite. The dinner was enlivened by many sallies of wit on the part of our guest at those condemned by cruel war, to partake of the “ hybrid ” character of meat just then in vogue at the post; nay, he even invited himself to dine with us until our “cow meat” should be exhausted. The dinner over, pipes filled with fra grant leaves of the blackberry, a common substitute for tobacco, were passed around, much to the gratification of the captain, who declared that he had never dined more sumptouslv at any time since he had honored Port Hudson with his presence. “ Glad to hear, cap, that you are pleased with our poor fare. “ Poor fare ! I think it was excellent. Now, you see, if I had dined at my quar ters, I should have been compelled to eat that confounded mule meat, or have gone hungry for want of something bet ter. Thanks, however, to your kind in vitation, I have avoided the nauseous dose for one day more, at least.” We allowed the captain to get his pipe under full headway, before we again broke the silence. “ Captain H , you have been very complimentary upon the dinner set before you to-day, and are under many obliga tions for it; but do you know what you have eaten ?” At these words he turned deadly pale. “ Know what I have eaten ! Certain ly ! You said the hash was made of a piece of the last milch cow in the port I” “ So we' did, captain, but truth may as well be told now as at any other time.— That hash was made of mule meat!” “What I” said he,springing to his feet; “ and you allowed me to eat it without telling me what it was ? Look here, sir, if I thought you meant to insult me, I” —here he broke dowa—he could contain himself no longer. The “ retohings,” “ short comings,” asd “ upbeavings ” of oar guest, •«* be better imagined than described. Suffice to say, that after tbe joke had exhausted itself at his expense, he “ came down ” as quietly to his mule meat as if he had been accustomed to that sort of x beef” all his life.

A large number of snouts were recently brought in, chief ly by Indians, but in course of time it was discovered that most of the trophies were imitations only, cunningly manufac tured of Iudja ruboer and gutta percha by clever manipulators in the State Of | the play ©f his countenance would have told plainly what he said. Its effect on the wild, untutored, superstitious and warlike assemblage may be conceived; not a word was said, but stern warriors, the “stoics of the woods,” shook with emotion, and a thousand tomahaws were brandished in the air. Even the Big Warrior, who had been true to tha whites, was for the moment visibly affected, and more than once I saw his huge hand erloteh, spasmodically, the handle of his knife. And this-was the effect of his delivery, for though the mother of Tecumseh was a Creek, and he was familiar with the language, he spoke in the Northern dia lect, and it was afterwards interpreted by the Indian linguist to the assembly. His speech has been reported, but no one has done it justice. I think I can repeat the substance of what he said, and, in deed his very words: “ In defiance of the white warriors of Ohio and Kentucky, I have traveled thro’ their settlements, once oar favorite hunt ing grounds. No war hoop was sounded, but there is blood on our knives. The pale faces felt the blow but knew not whence it came. “ Accursed be the race that has seized on our country and made women of our warriors. Our fathers, from their tombs, reproach us as slaves and cowards. I hear them now in the wailing winds. “The Muscogees were once a mighty people. The Georgians trembled at our wai-whoop, and the dens of my tribe, in the distant lakes, sung the prowess of your warriors, and sighed for their em braces. “Now your very blood is white, your tomahawks have no edge, your bows and arrows were buried with your fathers.— Oh! Muscogees, brethren of my mother, brush from your eyelids the sleep of slave ry; once more strike for vengeance—once more for your country 1 The spirits of tho mighty dead complain! The tears drop from the weepiDg skies I Let the white race perish! “ They seize your land ! they corrupt your women 1 they trample on the ashes of your dead! “ Back ! back, up into the great water, whose accursed waves brought them to our shores! “ Burn their dwellings! destroy their stocks! slay their wives and children !— The red man owns the country, and the pale faces must never enjoy it 1 “ War now 1 War forever 1 War on the living! War on the dead ! Dig their very corpses from the graves! Our coun try must give no rest to a white man’s bones! “ All the tribes of the North are danc ing the war dance. Two mighty warriors across the seas will send us arms. “ Tecumseh will soon return to his country. My prophets shall tarry with you. They will stand between you and the bullets of your enemies.
