He spoke of the great and his. torical importance of the principle in volved in the qnestion. He characterized it ss the great fundamental principle of republican liberty—Uiat tbe ballot-box should b) protected from the slightest approach of military power, and that the voter stiali be left absolutely free in exer cising at tha polls the bigbeetprerogative cf a citizen. Ho quoted tbe English statute of George II. for tne removal of troops from plaoea where elections were to be held, and cited Blackstone as writing that itu es sential that elections shall be absolutely free, and that therefore all undue influ ences are illegal and are prohibited. He bad expected that anon a question would bsvo been discussed on tbe other side with calmness nod dignity; bat In this he had been grievously disappointed, particularly in connection with the speech of tbe gentleman from Maine (Mr. Frye). That spreeb, while it migtu have been ap propriate to “the email fry” of hie party at cross-roads or village barroom*, was un just to that gentleman's genial and gen erous nature. Tbe President has nominated isaao W.

Washington, April 3.—The following Southern cases were argued in the United States Supreme Court to-day, all from the United States Circuit Court for the District of Louisiana: David N. Barrow, administrator, vs Logan Hanton; Jacob McWilliams v* Frank F. Case, receiver, and John F. Klein vs. the city of New Orleans. In the last case no connsel ap peared for the city. The widow Oliver has already, through her counsel, moved for a new trial. Mr. Hauk, of Tennessee, followed. He was Sonthern born, and sympathized with that section, bnt he said when the President had offered peace and concilia tion, be had been answered .with blood shed and riot. To-day it was well known that a majority of tbe Southern States were Republican, tf an honest eleotion could be held, and yet ha looked around him and saw but three Republicans from the Southern States. He placed his op position to tbe present measure on tha broad ground cf its merits. If permit ted to stand on tbe atatnte broke, there would be free elections in tbe South, and Republicans would be returned to Con gress by the voice of a free people, un awed by bull-dczers and rifle clubs. Others might do aa they pleased, bnt never while he bad a vote on this floor, wonld be vote to repeal tbo.sestatutes un til a man iu tbe South, whether white or black, whether carpet-bagger from the Noit*>, or scalawag from the South, sbocl l have a free and equal chance at the bailut box, (Applause on the Re publican side ) He was not authorized to spe»k for the President, but he knew that ii the President was a good Repub lican be would veto tbe bill. Representative Itch-son. ex-Secratary of tbe Navy, then addressed the House, te intended to ccnSne himself to tbe queetion of law involved in the discus sion. It is proposed, he eaid. to restrain the civil officers of the United States. from keeping the peace at any election in any State.jBy what means? By civil means, for the right of the civil officer, the marshal of the district, if you please, to summon the gone eomilatus, is a right to summon the ordinary military compani 8 that may be within the body of bis bailiwick. The right th summon armed troops if they be within tbe body of the bailiwick, is a civil, not a military right, and is in the interest of the inviolability and tbe strength of the civil law There was con siderable controversy between the Spea ker and Mr. McLine, of Maryland, os to whether there had ever been any ra.iog of the Supreme Conet recognizing the right of the United States to keep the peace. Mr. Robeson said he bad never known that question to arise in that form, but there* have been rulings of tbe Supreme Court to the effect that whenever there wss a power given and guaranteed or secured by the Constitu tion of tbe United States, the power re sided in the United States to enforce and seenre it. Continuing at consi ierable length in a legal argument, Mr. Robeson said: My friend frost Ohio [Mr. Hurd] has said that it becomes us to look sharply and keenly as to the use of the military power, for that by it repuDhc* have always died. I take issue witn him there. The last final blow at the liber ties of republics has oome from the sword, but it has not teen until some orauch of the government has -■•nrpsd to itsolf rights whichTt did not enjoy under the Constitution and laws of the country. It hat not bean until some branch of tbe government — usually tome branch claiming more especially to' represent the popular will, b*a Usurped to it-elf powers that did nc* belong to IT.

If one member of this system breaks loose from those attractions, when the old land marks are swept away and the old traditions wipod out, when the * old safeguards are all broken down, it riots through the system, an object of terror and of dismay, and more terrible than majestic, it beoomes a mighty instrument cf evil. My friends, (addressing the Democrats side of the House,) it is from the discupted system of the government, that military power arises. It is in tha confnaion of disorder, the lack of right to be executed by the civil officer* of the law, it is within the smoke of suoh a con test that the “man on horseback'’ rides in and liberty ia gain tided to order. 8o long as the'Civil process r f fid "law-Asy be properly executed -by the civil officers in this country, there m no danger At mil itary ^power. , The strong arm, the t olear heads, the brave hearts of our people, north and south, 'would'never yield to a standing army, were ifca million strong, unless it . became absolutely necessary, under the preseuoa of usurped aad arbi trary power of some Irresponsible man-' her of the system, to sacrifice liberty to order. That time will saver ooaae in this oountry unless yon* my friends, disregard the plain Mantling-qUititory. Mr. Blackburn, of Kentucky,. was the next speaker. He premised bis speech with the hope that he would in no way depart from the plane of fairness in tbe debate; thataeatteranoe’of his would give call to tbe oharge Jhst any eeotional question was involved in the issue under consideration. Nobody' had been Bar- prised at the gentleman from New Jer-' sey (Mr. Sobssoo.) Tbe performance wonld not bave been complete, wonld not have been fairly rounded out, unless some member of tbe privy oouacil of that imperialistic dynasty,- under tyrannioal ' administration the very vicious practioe had grown np to what it war, now sought (o repeal; nad testified on the floor in its ' behalf; it had been argued by various gentlemen on the other eide that this repeal was revolutionary in its character; that it had no place upon an appropriation bill; tbat it was out of line and should be consider ed os an independent proposition. He was bnt a poor student of his country’s history who was not able to satisfy him self that from the foundation of tbe con stitution down to the prssent lime, it had ever been held and that by the highest authorities in the land that it was in the power of the House to control tho em ployment of tha army by the withhold ing of its supplies. In the very nature of things tbe proposed repeal could not bo revolutionary. Negative': legislation was never revolutionary. Affirmative legis lation might be, but not negative legis lation. There was no one who would assert that previous to I860 the Execn- live had held the power of which this oill proposed to deprive him. The Con stitution did not give the right to the President to eecd armed forces into any State, even to suppress domestic violence. By no means. It required the President to protect every State from invasion, but only conferred upon him the right to send soldiers to that 8tate to suppress domestic violence when the Legislature of tbat State or tbe Governor should make a requisition upon him. He was not permitted to anticipate domestic violence, neither he or the Legislature, nor the Governor. Domestic vio lence must have been in ex i tence, and that fact must have oeen oeitifisd to him by the Legislature. There was no prerogative whioh the Presi dent held that was not clearly dtflned and limited by law, bnt the constitution had made CongresB, ia express terms, the great reservoir into whioh all powers of implication flowed. This bill ooQld not oomprehend revolution, bnt it wu said tbat it wbb not in the proper plaoe when it was engrafted npon an appropriation bill. If. b* “aid, l-'N-'iras were to he read to the Democrats, let them oome from some quarter aud eom* members not convicted on tbe reoord. The gentleman from Ooio, (Mr. Gsiflsld,) had told the House tbat this wu an effort, end an un manly effor*, to starve the government to death, and bad oontraated It with what he termed the bolder and braver notion of oertain members of Congress in-1861, who bed left their seats and had oar- ried tbeir issue to the field of oarnage. That gentleman said tbat tbis was revolution, and bad decried the ef fort s which tbe Democrats were making to adopt it. Far bettor weald tt have been for the ^.-ople of tbe country if the power of the gentleman from Onio had been applied at an earlier period of his politiaai history in denouncing and oppos ing revolutionary legislation. Did the gentleman remen her the reoord that he had made in 1863, in an amendment of fered by Mr. Wilson, of Iowa, to an ap propriation bill, proposing to revolution- ,Z3 tbe jadioial system of tbe ootmiry, proposing to rob a co-ordinate branoh of the Government; proposing to strip ihe Saprems Oonit of the prerogatives and the powers tbat the Federal Constitution nad clothed it with ? That amendment had provided that if any circuit or dis trict court should declare any act ef Con- gresv to be unconstitutional the judg ment should bo carried up to the Supreme Conrt, and if two-thirds of the members of tbat oourt should not affirm the judg ment, the aame should be held reversed on the call of teas and nays. The gen tleman from Onio is found voting yi The Supreme Court at that time had con sisted of eight members and by that amendment six were required to over rule the opinion of a distrioi court declar ing unconstitutional any of the ill-advised hasty, crude and partisan measures of the Renublican revolution What was there that the party the gentloman so ably led, had cot done in that catalogue of crimee? In his speech of Saturday, the gentleman from Ohio had challenged all comera to eho w a single inetanoe in the history of tho country where the eossent of the executive had ever been coerced. He (Blackburn) accepted the gage of battle which tbe gentleman had thrown down. He would reed from the record and show him an iaatanoe on the 2nd of March, 1867. where Andrew Johnson baa signed an army appropriation t ill under protest, reeling, as he eaid, con- strained to return the bill with his signa ture, bat ocoompanying it with his -pro- teat. Was there no coercion there? Why the reoord was fall of iwtencep. He found thet in tie 8»th Congress that bad occurred, which would never fade from the minds of the American people. He referred to the effort which was made and which earns so nig a re sulting in the enooesefat impeachment of the chief executive of tho oountry. The executive had been impeached of high crimes and misdemeanors and of usurpation, *! violation of law, fire', in that he has eorrnptly need the appointing power. Bad <be gentleman from Ohio ln'ended to impeaoh him tor that? Tne gentLmia knew that he had not. Secondly—In tbat be has orroptly u*ed the pardoning power. Had the geo- tletfad intended to impeaoh him for thei? Everybody jtnew he bad not. Thirdly— Iu that he had corruptly used the veto mere waa where the eting came power. 1 , _ _ =. . in end It wes the txwmse ot that pre rogauve, it.was tbe employment fil to*S> .power fer which the House voted Fourth those articles of impeaohment. lj—In that he has corruptly disposed of public property. That wa* a mere for- mal count iu the indictment. Fifthly— with tbe gentleman from Ouio had stood and voted Mr. Hayes, of the same State [Applause on tbe Democratic eide and in the galleries.] And now, by what sort of authority has ths gentleman 1 from Onio oome to threaten the House with a probable and possible aotiou of ths Exec utive? What provision of the Federal Constitution undertook to oloihe any body, either the President himself or one of hie privy ooaao-.l, even including the premier, tbe Ssoretiry of State, to sit as he had done on the floor of tbe House last 8dtcrday, and by his presence and approval seem to intimidete, overawe and browbeat the Amerioan Congress? [De- xitive laughter on the Republican side ] Wno bad commissioned tbe gentleman from Ohio to tell the House that it bad better be careful, because the issue was and the President would not be 00- erced in o a message of approval ? Did tbe gentleman from Ohio or any other gentleman pat saoh a low estimate on the self respect, the integrity, the coarsgs end the manhood of tbe House, without regard to party, as to be lieve that such a threat so flaunted wee to intimidate toe lawmaking branoh of the government and shape its souon or meas ures of legislation. He proceeded to quote from Mr. Garfield’s speeoti to the effeot that no petition had been presented to Congress for the proposed repeal.. Did the gentleman mean to stand by tbat declaration? Did he not know that the Congress just expired bore npon its files petition after petition in contested elec tion oases, protesting against the l preeenee or the military at the polls, denouncing tte usurpation and demanding the repeal of this law? Did ha fell to remember that the Scats ot Louisiana, a sovereign State, bad sect ber memorial, in whioh, in thunder tonea, she anathematized the present law? But the genii am sn went far ther end, if possible, did -worse It is generally true that the grave silenced the tongas of detraction, but the gentleman from Ohio, forgetting tiimself la hia speech, forgot also to observe that role. Continuing, he said: Let one take the darkest pages of his country’s history for the list fourteen long years and read it carefully, and tc-lt mo then whotber it lies iu tbe mouth of this leader of a ones great, but now waning party, to read lec tures to anybody, either on the sjore of revolutionary legislation or the extrane ous introduction of legislation on appro priation bills. Better far, in the face of the record which they have made—bstter to listen patiently to the oonfiimed ine briate as he deals on tbe virtues of tem perance ; or, better let the queen of the dtmi monde elaborate tbe beauties of fe male virtue, or let the d.vil prate of tbe scheme of universal redemption, than for homilies on good morals and lectures on revolutionary legislation to be deliv ered from such a source. [Applause on the Democratic side.] Having read tbe not of Georgs II, hs continued: “From tbet day till now I do deolare that it i* not witb'n the power of say man to find ths soion of tbe Saxon ratio that ha* not ever held in niter con tempt the effort of bim or them who sought to control tbe freedom of tbe bxl- lot by the employment of military power. [Applause on tbe Democratio sid9.] The very army of this country protest against such a prostitution of it. I see before me the distinguished General-in-chief of the Americtn army, (General Sherman as occupying Mr. Garfield’s seat) and I do not believe that I over-state the fact when I eay, from him down to the lowest subaltern, it is difficult to find a commissioned officer who has not repugnance for the service, which, under this prostitution oTthe army, ho has been called on to perform. Ii is this question, tbat is before us. We are declaring thai tbe ballot shall be free; we are denying that it i* either constitutional, legal, just, fair or decent to subject the sovereign to the surveillance of tho servant. Wears willing to discnss tne question, and, for my part, I shall oppose any limitation to be put on this discussion. If we cannot stand on an lesue so broad, eo constitu tional, so catholic, bo free and so fair as this, then tell me in heaven’s name wbat earthly battlements are strong enough to get behind. For the first time in eigh teen years, the Democracy is back in power in both branches of Cougres*. We propose to celebrate h*-r return to power by wiping from the striate book those degrading resotatioai on frsemen, and by striking away the shackles which partiaen legislation hsi imposed. We do uo> in tend to stop nntil we bave stricken the last ve-tige of your war mea*ores from the statute book, like these which were born uf tho passions Inoidsnc to aivil strife, and whioh looked alone to tbe abridgement of the liberties of the oici- 200, until wo have sn antrammelod elec tion, an nnsnpervised ballot, and an abso lute free rigat for the oitizsn to deposit his ballot. As tbe condition precedent whioh we offer to you for the passage of tbis bill, if the gentleman from Ohio is to be excused, (for oertainly he cannot he justified for parading be fore this House the aryumentum in terrorem of a veto tbat is cut and dried to be pat upon a bill which has not yet pass ed; «nd if he is to be pardoned for warn ing tbe House that the Exeoutivs branoh of the government will not yield its as sent to tbe measure in its present shape, I ask whether I may not be warranted and justified in employing equal candor, and in assuring tbat gentleman and bis associates that the dominant power in this Congress, the ruling element in this body, ia also equally determined that, until its just demands, sanctioned by all laws human and divine, protected and hedged around by precedents without number, demanded by the people of tbis and witnoat regard to asetioa. clamored for not by the people of the South alone, but in Philadelphia as well as in New Oileans.in San Franciseo and Boston, as well as Chailsstou and’Savannah, are not complied with this side of the chain her, whioh bas demonstrated its power, never means to yield o^. surrender until this Congress shall have died by virtue of its limitation. [Wild applause on the Democratio side.] There is no tribunal before which wa are not willing to-esrry this case of oontest, and we are ready to allow him who rnlss the destinies of man to judge between ns and give victory to Ihe right.—I dcnJsrmsa'htff imitate the gentleman from'Oai® (Mr. Garfield), disclaim any authority to state,what others may do, bnt I do mean to say that itis my deliberate oonvietion that there is not to ~ be found a single man on this side of the Houce who will ever consent to abandon one jot or tittle of the faith that is in him. He could not surrender it if he wonld, and he will not. I beg the ether side to believe and not be ooeroed by threats or intimidated by tho party m power. We are planted onthia convic- tiont; there we will stand. He who dal- Ue* ie a dastard, and he who demes is damned. (Load applause-). When Mr!

The applause whioh greeted him was very hearty, and the congratulations whioh he received on resuming hi* seat, showed how thorougly his sentiments were shared by the men of his own party.

That remarkable cavo turned out to be jast as we predicted yesterday, a first class April fool. Our contemporary makes an earnest attempt, however, to prove that his fib was not exactly made out of whole cloth, aa there was at least a “gully” to show for it. But let him tell his own story: Those who visited the spot did find a cove, not however, of the kind they an ticipated seeing. Yet a careful reading of the article of yesterday will disclose the fact that there was more truth than fiction to be found in the details. Anybody who has ever been on the south commons knows full well that there is an immense wash-out or gully looated just below*tHe hospital. It is exactly as the article of yesterday described it; huge enough to hold a large building, ha* a sand and gravel bottom, perpendic ular walls, bones in abundance in its con fines, and contains a great deal of trash from the ntreets,among which willbe found broken pieces of chinaware and old jugs. The bones are accumulations from dead animal* hauled there in the city carts. Buzzards ara to be found in numbers al ways hovering about if. These are strange and sombre hued birds. It will be remembered that nothing was said abont the top of.the cave, aud moreover it was not onoe oslted a cavern. The cave therefore is a reality. Indeed, it is a serious reality, and unless the city or gen eral government stops its month, the wharf will In a few years have to be moved a few miles down the river.
