Greece, four niillioss of Persians perish
ed, and at last a Grecian King forced the
enemies of his native land to drink the
l itter cup prepared by, them in.former
thys for lire countrymen. Trr later times,
Charles the First of England, for oppres
sive acts and violations of the Constitu
tion of his realm, perished upon the
scaffold. During the French Revolution
Louis the (Sixteenth surrendered his head
at the behest of his subjects, who had
been wronged by his ancestors and him
self. Thus it has been in every nation,
in every age, in every clinic, and will be
until the end of time, that Divine justice
by some means lias been and will be me
ted out to wrong doers. This fact should
console the oppressed people of the South.
If in 1801, wc did secede of right from
the Union, the war waged upon us was a
monstrous outrage. If, however, we did
not, but only attempted to secede, wc are
now, and ever have been, in the Union, and
the withholding of our rights under the
Constitution, at this time, is an unpar
donable wrong. Fo our enemies may
take either horn of the dilemma they
choose ; and they arc in one event charge
able with murders, arsons and robberies,
and in the other with cruel, wanton op
pression. They arc covered all over with
the blackest crime, and, if we may judge
the future by the past, the day will dawn
ere long in which they will be called to
account for the same. 'Who would not
hasten its approach and Tvjoiee at its
coming? The waves of the Red Sea,
the Angel of Death, and the gmllotih',
may not be the instruments used by the
Almighty as his ministers of justice, hut
whatever He does use will he just as
effectual. The pampered Congressmen
at Washington may now insnlt us, but let
them be not too suro that it may not be
given us in our and their day to “laugh
at their calamity and mock when their
fear cometh.” Re that as it may, we feel
an abiding confidence that, soone'r or later,
justice will overtake them or the inheri
tors of their wrong.
No More Amendments.
Late news from Washington encoura

It prohibits any State from making or
enforcing any statute denying to any per
son equal protection under the law. Jt
apportions representation according to
numbers, but restricts it to the extent
that citizens 21 years of age are excluded
from voting it disfranchises, until July,

late insurrection, it prohibits the as
sumption or payment of the Confederate
debt and compensation for slaves.
Washington, May 11.—The Senate
to-day passed the Postal Appropriation
Bill, after striking out the amendment
heretofore adopted, preventing parties
appointed to office during the recess
from recovering any pay until confirmed
by the Senate.
Ref’ore the passage of the bill, Mr.
Cowan made a speech declaring that those
who interfered to prevent the Southern
States from being represented, were dis-
unionists, and that their opposition to
restoration was superinduced by the fear
of losing political power.
Gen. Sickles lias been confirmed as

in a true bill against Jefferson Davis for
treason, then adjourned until the first
Tuesday in June when it will meet in
Richmond.

Washington, May 15.—The Presi
dent hire signed the bill amendatory of
the Habeas Corpus Act, intended to pro
tect Union officers and soldiers from per
‘secution for acts done during the war in
obedience to military orders from their
superiots.
T he proceedings of the Senate to-day
were not particularly interesting. The
veto message ot tire Colorado bill was re
ceived, but the Semite adjoured without
its being read.
Mr. Chanlcr, of New York, offered a
resolution endorsing the President for
having, by the exercise of bis veto power,
protected the people of the country from
tlie acts of wicked, indigent and mischeiv-
ous men. The House refused to enter

Nr.iv York, May 11.—Stephens, Head
Center of Fenianism, who arrived here
yesterday was ruet on his arrival by a
committee of the Fenian Brotherhood,
and by thousands of Irishmen, who were
anxiously waiting for his arrival. He
proceeded from the wharf to the Metropol
itan Hotel, followed by the crowd, where
he will remain for the present. Mr.
Stephens remained in liis room convers
ing with the counnittee and receiving the
calls of such friends as lie choose to meet.
In a familiar conversation with the repor
ters of the press, Mr. Stephens gave a
few hints of the object of his mission,
and confidently asserts that tho Irish
army would fight on their own soiLrCre
the expiration of the present year.—
The Committee of Arrangements expect
the Common Council to give Mi. Sephens
a. reception. There will also be a grand
demonstration at Jones’ Wood, when the
Head Center will fully explain the object
of his mission to this country.
Mr. B. Doran Killian has issued a war
bulletin to the Brotherhood, in which he
states that he has made no report of his
action heretofore, because the public
should not know everything connected
with war purposes until the action pro
