Washington, February 12.—In the
House to-diy in his presentation speech.
Hr. Garfield eulcjrized Mr. Lincoln and
his Cabinet, and emphasized the point
that Mr. Lincoln had for a long lime re
sisted all the attempts made to induce
him to issue the proclamation, and had
only resolved upon it after lie had be
come convinced of ita necessity as a war
measure, and to save the Union, which
was his chief object. In this ^ 0 " n ®.^
tion, he quoted Mr. Lincoln afamousdis-
■Dat*Ti in reply t? Horace Greeley s pray-
er from twenty million?, to the effect
that if he could save the Union by abol
ishing slavery, he would do it, but that
ho would not do it or refrain from doing
it through any other motive. The speech
was entirely free from any allusion that
conid give offeree to any section or par
ty.
Mr. Stephens said: Mr. President and
Speaker—There is bat little left for me
to say in the programme assigned me
on this august cciasion. On the picture,
on the skill of the artist, my friend from
Ohio basdweh at length. In regard to the
munificence or the dinar, he has left mo
nothing to say. Few instances of this
kind have ocourred in the history of our
country. I know of tone. May her ei
ample in the encouragement of art bo fol
lowed by others. Mr. President and
Speaker, with reference to the subject of
the painting, I propose, if strength per
mit, to submit a few remark?. First, on
the central figure—the man; aftor that,
as to the event commemorated. I knew
Mr. Lincoln web. We were together du
ring one Congress. I was as intimate
with him as I was with any other man of
that Congress, except perhaps one. Of
his general character, I need not speak
He wss warm-hearted, he was generous.
H was, 83 he afterwards said, possessed of
a heart which had “malice to none and
charity to al'.” In bodily form he was
above the average and so in intellect.
Ho was not highly cultivated, but had
native genius far above the average of
his fellows. Every fountain of his heart
was ever overflowing with the milk of
human ksnlness. So much for him per
sonally and so much the deeper (fion
my attachment to him) was the pang in
my own breast eb well as in those of mil
lions at the manner of his horrible taking
off. That was the climax of our wot%
of our troubles and the spring from
which came afterwards unnumbered woia
But of those event?, no more now. As a
friend, I may say,
So further seek his merits to disclose,
Or draw his frailties from their dread abode;
There they alike in trembling hope repose
The bosom of his Father and God.
So much I have felt it my duty on this
occasion to say in behalf of my friend.
Now, as to the great historical event,
which this picture commemorate?, and
which we are here to-day to commemor
ate. This is a subjeot, perhaps, as re
marked by my friend from Onio, (Gar
field,) which the people of this day and
generation are not exactly in the condi
tion to weigh righily and judge correotly.
One thing has been remarked; that emanci
pation was not the chief objeotof Mr. Lin
coln. What was his chief object? The myth,
the idol with which his whole goal was
concerned was tbs preservation of the
Union. Now, lot not history confuse
events. That proclamation, pregnant as
it was, initiative as it was, in point, in
foot, originated more from the necessi
ties of war than from * any purely hu
manitarian view?. Let this be noted in
our history. Life is all a mist, and in the
dark onr fortunes meet. Mr. Lincoln,
like oil the rest of a?, in my opinion, was
an instrument in the hsnds of that
Providence above us which “Shapes
our ends, rough hew them how wo
will.” I doubt much if he knew at
the time or realized the great results of
the act. The proclamation itself did cot
make free or declare free all the oolored
race. It was only to operate in those
parts which were in resistance to the
government—had resistance ceased that
would have been all. If the emancipa
tion of tbo colored race be a boon- to that
race (and providence has yet to determine
that; it depends muoh on themeelves). If
it i?, I, representing Ihs Southern States
here, may olaim in their behalf that that
freedom was never finally consummated
until the Southern States sanctioned the
thirteenth amendment, which they did
overy one of them and by their own con
stituencies. They, coming to the oocdn
sion that that institution could no longer
survivo, accepted the position and by
their uols and by tho adoption of the
thirteenth constitutional amendment, Mr.
Lined Vs idea was consummated. Now,
as to that institution which was called
slavery, many errors were indulged and
many prejudice?. Oh! that the people
of tho United States could divest them
selves of prejudice, that moral distortion
of the mind. What miechief has it not
done? ’What ills has it not caused?
What advancement would not the world
have made if it had not been for this
thing—prejudice. Of all tho grand ex
pressions of that greatest of American
orators, Daniel Webster, the grandest
was that in which he told the peopla of
Massachusetts (when Faneuil Hall was
refused to him,) “Yon have conquered
tko sea, yon have conquered a sterile
soil, you have conquered the elements,
but you must yet conquer your preju-
dic.e." Indulge me a moment on this
subject of so-called slavery. It was not
an unmitigated evil, it was not without
its compensation?. It is my purpose now,
however, to bury, not to praise, nor aught
of evil to extenuate.
If it was not the best relation for the
happiness and welfare of both races mor
ally, physically, intellectually and politi
cally, it was wrong and it ought to have
been abolished. This £ said years before
secession, and I repeat it yet, but there
is no time now to discuss the question;
1st it go. I have seen something of the
world. I have traveled somewhat and I
have never yet fonnd on earth a paradise.
The Southern States were no exception.
Wherever I have been I have witnessed
the truth of these lines:
"What crowds in every Undare wretched and
forlorn#
lion's inhumanity to 'man makes countless
thousands mourn."
It was so with ns. It is so the world
over, so fares I know. The question of
the relations of tho races was one of the
moet difficult problems that statesmen or
philanthropies, legislators or jurists ever
had to solve. It is past with
ns. I do not think it imp*
propriato on this occasion to indulge
in somo remarks on this subjeot. Sinoe
the South has been released from all bar
responsibility about it. It has been oom-
mon to speak of the oolored people as the
“wards of the nation.” May Inot say with
appropriateness and with due reverence,
in the language of Georgia's greatest in
tellect, that they are rather the wards of
the Almighty. They are committed now
under the new state of things to the
rulers—the law makers—the law expoun
ders and the law exeoutors—within their
respective constitutional sphere, to tako
care of and to provide for in this com
plicated system of government under
whioh wo hve. I am ho inclined to regard j
them. I speak of them not'in excep
tional oases, but as a mass. Why, in the
providence of God, they wore permitted
to come here it is not for na to say, bnt
they have a location here, and I oan say
for myself, and for those of my immedi
ate circle of acquaintances, and for the
whele Southern people, that there
is not one who world now
change the condition of things,
resubjagate the colored man or put him in
the condition he was in before. If there
is one in ell (he South who wonld desire
such a ohango, I am not aware of it.
Men of the North and of the South, of the
East and of the West, I would to-day, on
this commemorating oooasion, say, l9t
us, oue and all, within oar sphere of duty,
whether in pnblie or in private life, see to
it that we do not violate that divine trust
committed to ns. We live in a new era.
During the oonfliot of arms I frequently
almost despaired of the liberties of onr
country. Wars always menace liberty,
bud tea of result in its overthrow. I have
always th thttthe union of these
States, at first, was founded on tho as
sumption that it was tho best interest! of
all to remain united, faithfnlly, folly per
forming eaoh for itself and ita own
people as well as for the people of all
the States, their constitutional obligations
but secession was resorted to as a rem
edy. It was only to avoid, as I then
thought, a greater evil that I went with
my State, holding that to be my daty, but
believing ell the time that after the pas
sions of the hour end day were over the
great law which produced the Union at
firet, mutual interests and reciprocal ad
vantage. would necessarily bring us to
gether again. In Eome mole or other the
Mississippi could never ba dammed np;
the Ohio wonld continne to flow; the
people at the south and at the weBt and
east had all a community of in teres*, and
I believed that after a while there wonld
be a restoration. The time come sooner
than I was apprehensive it would. But
even if what is called tho_ soveignity of
the Statis, and which I think the basis
and foundation of our fabric, had bsen
acknowledged—(Mr. Stephens left the
sentence uncompleted and went on to
a ay)—but let these questions be bnrried
to deep as never to be resurrec
ted. What shall we do in the fu
ture ? Down south we are doing
the best that we can for the colored
people, hoping’earnestly that they will fit
themselves for a higher civilization. TLe
flag no longer floats over provinces but
over Slates —no longer over subjects but
over citizen?, white and black. Why
can we not look hopefully to the future?
Mr. President and Mr. Speaker, is it a
delusion, is it a fancy which I have in
dulged in that there i3 a nobler and
a grander future for these United States
than anything that we may have yet
attained ? It may be a delusion, bat it i3
one of which I do not wish to divest my
mind while I linger on this stage. Let
all parties and all sections do justice to
the component elements of our communi
ty. Everywhere according to our consti
tutional power and right, let harmony
reign and peace prevail. Let sectional
strife be done away with and then there
is a higher and a grander future for 11a.
Bat if the embers of tbo Use most la
mentable war are left, and a little
additional fuel comes to flame them
np again, if the subject of classes,
theoonfi:o; of labor and capital, the con
flict of race (that profound ethnological
question whioh we have all got to settle
and the moat difficult one ever commit
ted to the consideration of statesmen or
phUurthnopUtej.sball break out,and these
dangerous elements be again aroused, I
greatly fesr bat the reoent troubles and
disasters through which we have just pas
sed will prove bnt the shadow, the
penumbra of a deeper and more dread-
(ul eclipse which will come upon this
continent, blighting and blasting the
highest and best hope of mankind.
Should that be no, then same fatnre bard
may sing,
The star ot hope shines brightest in tho west,
Tte star of liberty, the last, the best,
It too hassetupon her darkened shore.
And hope and freedom light up earth no more.
(General Applanse.)

objeot for which the two houses had con
vened having been aooomplished, the

peaoe conditions four days hence. He
deolared that if the British fleet passed

upon Eogland
London, Febraary 12.—A dispatch to
Renter’s Telegram Company, dated Con
stantinople to-day, l Bays the Grand
Dnke Niebolaa has expressed his satis
faction to Vefik Effendi, at the non-ad-
mif sion of the British fleet. In to-day’s
sitting of Turkish parliament, several
Deputies urged Vefik Effendi to sot with
consideration towards Eogland, relative
to the passage of the Dardanelles.
Washington, February 13.—In the
House, the tedious monotony anddnll-
nesi of the discussion of the Military
Academy bill was relieved by a personal
and political altercation, which brought
in question tho whole of tho management
of the late Presidential struggle, the al
leged bargain for tho withdrawal of the
troops from Lonisiana and South Caroli
na, tho famous Wormley Hotel confer
ence and the pending prosecution of the
members of the Returning Board in New
Orleans. The disousslon arose from an
unpleasant colloquy which some days
since occurred between Hewitt, of New
York, on the one part, and Aiken, of
South Carolina, and House, of Tennessee,
on the other. . .
Mr. Aikinonthat occasion expressed
the opinion that West Point ahonld be
brought to the hammer and sold. Mr.
Hewitt had attributed that sentiment to
Southern hostility to the institution
which had turned out such gallant offi-
cers as West Point had, and Mr. House
had stigmatized Mr. Hewitt as a dema-
gogue who had slandered tho whole
Southern people. To-day Mr. Hewitt
brought np tho subject again and ex
plained away offensive imputation against
the South, which explanation Mr. House,
of Tennesaee, accepted on his aide and
tie*, 'd as entirely satisfactory. . But
not so wi>h Mr. Aikin, as to whom, aud
to his Slate, Hewitt had only add-rd
a fresh sting. In his remarks to-daj he
reasserted Honss’s charges of demagog-
ism, and named Davi?, Lee, Jackson, the
two Johnstons and other Southern Gener
als as reflecting hcnir and glory on West
Point. He eulogised the union officers,
graduates with whom be bad measured
steel on the bottle field, while the
gentleman (Sir. Hewitt), had only served
his country through a paid substitute aud
finally as a Parthian shaft aimed at Mr.
Hewitt, said that West Point had never
produced an Earn, a Benedict Arnoli, or
a man who had sold the Presidency.
This charge brought Mr. Hewitt to his
feet again, and he related the whole story
so far as he was concerned, with the late
presidential election, and eaid that if the
presidency bad been sold no Northern
man had done it.
Messrs. Garfield and Foster, of Ohio,
and Hale, of Maine, joined in the discus
sion, whioh at times was very exoited, Mr.
Garfield declaring that there had been no
bargain to give the Presidency to Hr.
Hayes, and denouncing the prosetulion
of \7edi and Anderson as a truonient pro
ceeding.
Mr. Ellis, of Louisiana, who bad beau
oat of the Hall daring toe discussion, and
who bad evidently been ill, when informed
or tbe purport of Hewitt’s remarks about
him, obiaiued the floor, and assuming
that Mr. Hewitt bad held himself and his
colleegaes renpoEtibio for the Presiden
tie! bargain, declared ibat the lips which
ottered the assertion that Louisians, or
any Representative of Lonisiana, or any
authorized agent of Louisiana, had ever
bartered, or sought to barter, or enter
tained a proposition to barter away the
interests of the Democratic party, or the
interebti of tbe whole people of the union
in the (lection of Samuel J. Tilden, lied
in his heart and lied in his fonl throat.
He then went on to relate the oonferenoe
at the Wormley Hotel, mentioning as
he actors on that occasion, himself, E. A.
Burke, of Louisiana, and Henry Watter-
son, of Kentucky, on ‘he Democratic side,
and on the Republican side Mr. Garfield.
Mr. Foster, ex-Governor Dennison, Stan
ley Matthews and Senator, now Secreta
ry, Sherman. He declared that there was
no bargain 'or talk of bargain; that the
only matter which transpired was an in
terchange of views, and that he and his
friends relied upon ths assurances of
thesp, Mr. Hayes’ close friends, as to
what were his views and sentiments in
regard to Louisiana and South Carolina.
These gentlemen, had pledged nothing
for Mr. Hayee. They bound themselves
by promise. The language that they
had held was, “(re know him, we know
his sentiments towards the South, we
know that he believes in tbe self-govern
ment of tboee States, and without speak
ing authoritatively for him, we will gay
that in our opinion, he will give tbe bless
ing of a free government to those States;
that he will lift them from the blood and
dust in which they have been trampled
and that, in the language of Mr.Foster—
“the flag 6hall float there over free Slates,
no longer ever conquered end abject
provinces.”
Mr. Davie, of North Carolina—Wa3
there any agreement that the members
of tho retaining board should not be pet
secuted ?
Mr. E-lis—None.
Subsequently Mr. Ellis again obtain'd
the floor to mako a personal explanation,
and retracted all offensive allusions to
Mr. Hewitt, ia his remarks, saying that
bo had been assured by that gentleman
and other friends that ho had been en
tirely misinfotmed.
It is understood that tho vote will be
taken in the Senate on the silver bill on
Friday. Mr. Joses, of Nevada, speaks
to-morrow.

Medical Quackery. False
PllVSlolOgy-
Medicinc on tbe surface, as facts compelled me
to portray it, is just in the chaotic condition that
a look below prepares us to expect, lor tbe confu
sion worse confounded that characterizes tho
physiology on whichit rests is just the jumble in
which the absurdities of alios pathos, might
be supposed to originate. Without a defi
nite idea of what disease in its last analysis is.
but supposing it some kaleiloscpic arrangement
of individual entities capable of infinity of
shape, tho cure of oue supposed to be by tho sub
stitution of another and indefinite change, rul
ing over all, watching Tor developments without
ability to control them, but “popping off” the
symptoms as they arise rather than the disease
that produces them, changing prescription at
every visit much to the benefit of at least the
druggist, losing ono in three, when only one in
twenty-six should die, and all cropping out from
a mistaken physiology, what bttter than a com
mon bewilderment could be exported, or a sys
tem of guessing that tho great Waterhonse desig
noted ‘'learned quackery,” tbst holds out false
l'ghts to the acknowledged quacks and keeps
them gabbling {n chorus, tho most absurd non
sense, especially about theliver.
With facts developed by experience that would
not tally with accepted dogmas, doubts arose
and a thorough overhauling resulted in over*
turning the entire structure cf ingestiveand
egestive physiology, as now understood, as well
as in exposing theulankest ignorance of tho en
tire profession on these and other important
subjects, de.nonst nting specially that ingestion
by ths thoracic duct and egestion by the liver
are palpably impossible, for no anatomical pro
vision has bjAn made for either.
The known capacity of the tborscicduct in the
average bran is seven pounds daily—the known
" havi ‘ I
that way it could not circulate without being
corpu&cnlatisl, and no sensible anatomist, on re-
llection, could suppose that any organ found on
that roatc could possibly do it. For these rea
sons, if na other, it is the shorest nonsense to
talk ot the thoracic duct as the true course of in
gestion.
Egestion by tho liver is equally fallacious, bo-
hiuse every anatomist must know if he will only
think that not a drop of the vcinoua blood that
holds the filth of the general system, can ever get
to it, so that wherever else that filth may be car
ried, not a particle of it ever docs or can reach
the User, and of courae the herculean and ludi
crous efforts of the doctors 10 cleanse and purify
by that organ, have their eounlerpari in the
wonderful and puis&nt achievements of the re
nowned knight of La Manca, That bile is com
posed of tho disintegrated tissue, and therefore
excretm. u ti tious is the doctrine of all the schools,
but that notion isjustas fallacious as the others,
for if none gets to the liver ho.v could bile be
composed of it, or how can bile be excrement:-
tkms when of tho two and a half poun Is that is
daily secreted, not a drop can in health ever be
detected m the lower bowels, and none nasses
hut- the coloring matter rejected in the digestive
processes
it is a most singular circumstance that with
such tacts as these staring at them, our entire
corps of physiologists have clung to tho old ideas
aud utterly failed to discover tlie simple consis
tent and efficient plan that lay so open before
them rh&t it must have taken some effort to koep
from seeing if. Looking so intently for vascular
connections, they ignored the science of osmosis
as connected with the ingestive processes, and
t£e fact that the entire proceeds of digestion are
taken up by cndosinosis after the manner of a
sponge, and carried by the portal vein to the liv
er for elaboration into blood is a new and most

when the entire business of the portal circle, as a
whole, was instantly revealed. Oh, tho simplic
ity of tho untuToIprocesies, the mysteries of tbe
sweet small lutes ines and want Of taint of feetor
at the liver with the lower bowels full of it, is
perfectly expiaiuoJ, ar.d tho mode by which
tho.-e foetid matters reach the colon from the
lungs is demonstrated. No need for the concen
tration of the foul voinous blood at the liver, so it
is ali co.lectedat tho right heart, sent thencoto
the lungs where tho moment it is oxigiuatedit
gives forth tho factor peculiar to tho bodily clo
aca, and tho only way by which that can ho
reached is by the left heai land the abdominal
arteries. After depositing* its load of filth tho
blood returns SB veinous blood by tho portal tt,
the liver, full this timo of tho sweet products of
digestion acquired by endosmosis. which mus
be mixed ana commingled with the old, elabo
rated. vitalized, and corpusculated before being
sent on its mission of repair, the whole accom
plished in tho twinkling of an eye almost and
millions upon millions of corpuscles moulded in
the granular substance of the liver at every puls
ation of the heart. The real business of tho por
tal circle is thus scon to bo bringing out ol tlio
dead tissue for deposit in the cloaca and tho car
rying in of tho new product of digestion, while
the business of tho hver is to prepare and make
it into blood suited to the various requirements
of the wasting body, and thus nutrition is left to
no mere chances, nnd excretion is governed by
the heart without reference to the liver.
Ingestion and egestion aro therefore accom
plished by and through tho portal circle in the
most simple, complete and intelligible manner
that can be imagined, and I claim as my own
this invaluable di«covory in which I disdain to
sock proprietary rights, but give it to tho world
for ti e benefit of mankind.
While thus giving reasons for the faith that is
