cbsrsoirnzed the Democratic party of the
northss cowardly and treacheries, and
warned the south against relying on it.
All that they (the Republican party)
aiked of the South was respect for the

Southern pendulum would swing back

retire to the rear as it nai done in tlr.o
past.
He was fillrwen on tbe same side by
Humphrey, of Wisconsin, who also read
from manuscript.

Hr. Chalmers, of Misiis.ippi, fol
lowed, m answer to Hr. Garfield’s re
marks of Saturday, and denying the
statement of the latter that the Southern
Democrats bf 1861 had threatened to
shoot the Union to death. In answer to
an interrogatory by Hr. Prioe of Iowa,
‘•Where was the first gun flredf” Mr.
Chalmers said: “Tbe first gun was fired
near Ilarper's Ferry, when Sou’hern
blood was shed on Southern soil.” [Lund
applause on the Democratic aide aud in
the galleries 3 He then proceeded to
declare that if the proposed legirlation
wa* revolution then, the Republican
party had accomplished revolution after
revolution. One of the most iniquitous
acts of usurpation ever perpetrated by
the Republican party was theattempt to
violate the constitutional rights of
the President in the act which the
late President Johnson protested against.
In tbe continuation of his speech, he
claimed that he had struck to the ground
the declaration of the gentleman from
Onio (Garfield) that the Democratic par
ty wa* inaugurating revolutionary meth
od! cf legislation, and showed that it was
tbe p irpose of the Republican party to
starve tbo government unless it was per
mitted to strangle tbe freedom of elec
tions at the polls. The name of revola-
tion has no terror for ns. [Sneering
demonstrations on tho Republic m side ]
We (earned to love it in oar childhood.

Conger, of Michigan.—I desire to ask
the gentleman from Mississippi whether
the second revolution of 1861 had aby
terrors for him.
Chaim^rg.—-The distingunhed gentle
man is exceedingly witty. History tells ha
that the Eagii-h Kings were in tbe habit
of keeping jesters at conit with the fools
cap and bells. It Bi-ems that a Repub
lican Congress has supplied iteelf in the
same manner, [laughter) bat instead of
the fool’s cap and jingling bells, which
might perhaps salt very well, it ha-
dressed its jester in swallow tails. [Loud
laughter on tbe Democratic aide.]
Mr. Conger—I asked the heroic gen
tleman from Mississippi a plain, civil,
simple question, and instead of answer
ing it, he jumps upon his mntio box and
makes grimaces to the country and to the
House. [Counter demonstration* on tne
Republican side, tbo members clapping
tb«ir hands and indulging in load laugh
ter for a considerable time.]
Mr. Chalmers—Tbe gentleman is mis
taken. I shall certainly not undertake to
play a game at which any m inkey can
bi-at me. [Laughter on the Democratic
Side.] ’
Mr. Frye, from Maine, next obtained
the floor and made a speech of consider
able length in defense of tbe Republican
party, and ooargiag the Democracy "f
the South with murdering citizens. He
declared that the Democratic party would
not get control of the capital, and that it
has as much as it can attend to to keep
posae-eion ot the House. There was
much fueling manifesto! in the debate,
wnicb was farther participated in by
Metsre. Ste le and Davis of North Caro
lina, Hooker of Miiaktippi, Carlisle of
Kentucky, Hart of Onio, and others. Mr.
Uur- said:
If anything had been settled by the
legislation of the last quarter of a cen
tnty, it was that general legis
lation iteelf mijht be attached to
appropriation bills, and certainly no
one would dispate tbe propositions that
measures in regard to economy and bear
ing on the revenue wore required to be
originated in tbe Honse. The Honse was
right in insisting that these obj -ctionable
mea-nres should be repealed He suontd
not speak to-day of the test ovh bill, bat
only of tbe two measaies that relate lo
election*, because they were both govoru-
ed by tbe same pricoipie and both uinet
be settled by the same constitutional doc
trines. Tne House insisted that the law
should be amended so as to prohibit the
use of troop* at the polls, ond so that
the taper visors of election* appointed by
Federal authority should co longer poi
ses* their present powers, and that there
Bhonld be a repeal of statutes conferring
on United States officers the power
mt-rfere with' or regulate State
eleotiona. Tbe House was right in that
demand, first, because ibeso provisions
of law Were uooonstilu’ionaL They in
terfered with tbe tight of suffrage and
with the State law, and ibe second s< ct:oo
of (be constitution declared :hut -.he
Honse should be composed of members
chosen by toe proplo of the several States,
and that ibe electors should have the
qualifications requisite for electors of the
most numerous branch of the Stat* Leg
islature. It was therefore tbe most nu
merous branch of the St-te Legislature
that determined the qualifications of elec
tors and not the ooostitotion of the Uni
ted States. There was no suoh thing as
the right of suffrage for a citizen of tbe
United 8tates. The right ot suffrage
Woi possessed and enjoyed under
the laws of the Slates expressly rec
ognized by tbe fnndsmetil law of
the land. Toe Supreme Cent
had recently so decided. On what tneo-
ry, then, did thi* legislation rest f Oa
what theory did the government send
troops to the polls at State elections f
Only on tbe theory that the right ot suf
frage was a right guaranteed by the Con
stitution of the United Slates, and that
it was the bminess of CingresB to pro
tect that right. He bad shown, however,
by the express phraseology of the Consti-
tion, and by the decision of the Supreme
Court, that no snch right did exist under
tbe Constitution, and, therefore, the con
sequence was inevitable and irresistible,
that any legislation on the subjeot was
unconstitutional. He argued earnestly
against the presence of troop3 at tbe
polls, which K- s*id, wa* butasinglesteo

Liva spoor,, April 2—The cotton circu
lar of Smith. Edwards & Co., cotton bro
kers of this town, says the visible supply
of cotton ir 350,000 bales below that of
last year. P.obabiy aplnners throngbeu'
tbe world hold a surplus of from 150,000
to 200,000 bales, and there may be a little
more shipped from India for tho remain
der of the season; bat, in any event,
there most be a material reduction ot
consumption to carry us through autumn.
Whether there will be such a'redaction
at tbe present level of price* of raw ma
terial, will depend very much on the ac
tion of the government, as bearing upon
silver and Eastern exchanges.
Even tbe slight improvement now no
ticeable at Manchester is due solely to i
proposal to lessen the drafts in India by
borrowing in London; ba: a senes of
such expedients would reduce the already
deplorable finances of India to hopeless
bankruptcy.

WA'Hinoton, April 2 —In the House
—An effort waa made by Sparks, of Illi
nois, to fix the time for closing the debate
on tbe army appropriation bill, and sug
gestions were made to have nignt
sessions—to restrict speeches to fifteen
minutes each and to close the debate to
morrow. Objections was mad* to all
taeee propositions, Conger, of Michigan,
stating that a number of gentlemen on
both sides, who have given nolioe, desir
ed to speak. Also that many have pre
pared speeches and would not like to be
restricted to fifteen minutes, and also,
that but few memDers would be present
at night sessions on both sides.
It was declared that there was no de
sire to shut off debate, and tbe Speaker
u vs it a* his experience that un unlim
ited debate was the shortest debate-
That opinion was endorsed by Kelly,
of Pennsylvania, wuo quoted the proverb
that “Che longest way round is the
shortest way heme,’’ and who also sug
gested tta: as this session was a self-im
posed luxury, there was no reason why
that luxury should be oat short
The opinion of Mr. Hawley, of Conneo-
t our, was that as tbe snbjeat wa* of a
moat important charaoter, It would bo uu-
gcaoions to out the debate snort or to
oomoel members to attend night ses
sional
A motion by Mr. Stephen^, of Georgia,
that the vote bo taken at 2 o’clock on
Saturday, was voted down.
Finally, on motion of Mr. Daonell, of
Minnesota, all general debate was order
ed to be closed at 3 o’clock ou Friday,
leaving five minntea debate still open.
Tne H-u-Q then, at 12:>5 oclock
went into Committee of the Whole.
The debate was opeaed in committee
of the whole by Mr. Williams, of Wis
consin, who atattd that two things were
absolutely indiepensible, the purity of
tne ballot box and peace at the noils. If
it required all tbe power of tho 8tate and
general governments, that power should
be exercised whether it be put forth un
der National or nnder State jurisdiction.
He had heard much talk about “bayonet
government, 1 ” but ho knew of no govern
ment which did net rest ultimately oa
tbe bijonet. Wh * ever talked about gov

sort in case of resistence to civil law,
talked about utopia.
In tbe Senate various bills ware Intro
duced. Among them one by Mr. Harris,
of Tennessee, providing for a treaty with
tbe R-pablio of Mexioo.
Hoar’s resolution, condemniag as an-

Democratic programme of legislation,
was laid on the table—yens 35; nays 25.
Mr. Blaine said, at a future time the
Republicans would ask for a dlreot vote
on the resolution.
Mr. Sanlsbury made a report against
the admi sion of Bell as Senator from
New Hampshire on the tbe appointment
of the Governor. It will come up for con

At a quarter to one o’clook the S-nate
went into executive session
Washington, April 2.—The following
are the talient points in the official case
of Fuz John Porter, as taken from the
report itself:
That the Recorder has used great dili
gence for evidence, especially each as
might appear to have a bearing adverse
to the claims urged by General Porter;
that due care has beea exercised not to
inquire into tbe military operations or
conduct of officers of the army of Vir
ginia to a fall elucidation of the subject
of investigation; that new evidence in
addition to the old has placed beyond
question many important facts, before
the enbject of dispute, in respect to which
radically erroneous opinions were enter
tained by Genera! Porter’s accusers, and
doubtless by the Court Martial that pro
nounced him guilty; and the result has
been to establish, beyond reasonable
doubt, all the facts essential to the for
mation of a coirect judgment npon the
merits of General Porter’s esae.
The zeport is, therefore, made by the
Board with entire unanimity, aad withoat
doubt is their minds, with reasons for
oinclusions and what aetion justice re
quires should be taken by the President.
The board state tbe evldanoe as pre*
seating itself nuder several distinot heads,
a* follows:
1. Imperfcot and in come respects er
roneous statements of fasts, due to tbe
partial and icoorreeti knowledgs in pos
session of witnessss at the time of the
court martial, aud sxlramely inaoournte
meps and erroneous locations cf troops,
by wbioh false statements wero made to
oonvey still more arromesua impressions.
2- Opinions and inferenose of promi
nent officers based upon this imperfect
knowledge.

4th. Accurate maps *f the field of

tbfercon at different period? of time, by
which utatements otherwise contradic
tory and imaonciliable are shown to bs

shown to have beea based upon different
views of the same military situation;
and, finally, conflioting testimony relative
to plan of operation*—interpretation of
order*—motives of nation and relative
degrees of responsibility for unfortunate
requite, concerning the obarge of which
Porter louad gailty of not
hsTing mored his command on the night
of August 17 h, 1862 in obedience to an
order from General Pupe.
Tue B ard report that it was a mani
fest: physical impoesibility to march over
rhat road that night—that nothing couM
hive been gained by tbe attempt, and
that it would have been wise if General
Porter had delayed tbe attempt atilt
•eager than he did. That he rxeroiaed
the very ordinary discretion of a corps
commander, and that u wat his plain
duty so to exerciee it.

Washington, April 2 —The report re
cites at muen length and in detail the
important events connected with the mil
itarv operations of the 29:b of August,
1863, and among other important facts
it is made clear that Porter's display of
troops in the early part of the afternoon
of the 29 :h gave rise to the belief on the
Confederate side of an attack about to be
nade, and that und^r tbia belief Lung
street sent bis reserves from the extreme
teft to the extreme right of his army, and
in front of Porter, thus relieving th«
Uaion army under other commanders
from this Confederate force. Porter's
duty, the report states, daring the after
noon of that date, was too plaia and
simple to admit of discussion, and the
Board are unable to find anything in it
subjeot to eriticiam, much less deserving
ceuiura or condemnation. He had made
frequent reports to hie superiors, stating
wbat he had done, and what hahad been
unable to do; wnat his situation waa in
respect to the enemy, and what their
strength; what his impressions were from
sound* of action towards his right. How
ha bad failed to gat any oommnnications
from any oommander in the main army,
or any orders fiom Generals Pope or Mc
Dowell as to hi* designs for tbe night;
sending an aide-de-camp to Gen. Pope
for orders and receiving no reply, not
even that the vital 4:30 order bad been
sent to him, and finally informing his
superior officers that if left to hiauelf
withoat orders be would have to retire to
the right for fond and water, whioh were
aot accessible where be waa. These re-
oorts wtre srut not only frequently, but
early enough to iusura the reoeipt of or
ders from Pope, or correet information
from McDowell, if they bad any to send
him. The remainder of the report is a
virtual exoneration of Gen. Porter. The
exoneration of Gen. Porter gives him the
ngut of reinstatement into tbe army. It
is generally understood that he dobs not
desire this, however, and will not apply
for it. He only wonts a vindication. Toe
report of the Board will bs sent to Con
gress , and a bill passed relieving Gen.
Porter from all bis present diStbilitie*.

publican, has been elected Mayor. The

Assessor and Justice of the Peace. The
Board of Supervisors will probable stand
six Democrats 1 , three Republicans and
one Greenbacker. The oommon council
shows two-thirds Democratic.
St. Louis, April 2.—Through incom
plete returns, an error in footing, a mis
take was made in tho dispatches last
night in giving the Republicans a major
ity in tha council.
Complete returns now show that the
Democrat: sleeted all their council men
yeaterday, which gives them a majority
of one in the council The Democrats
have the House of Dalegates by a small
majority over all. The anti-charter par
ty; composed of socialists and Green-

Mr. David Mclver, one of tho proprie

Parliament for Birkenhead, writes to the
Times, declaring unhesitatingly that from
his personal experience at a carrier, he
does not know of any nation whose trade
prospects at present are so gloomy as
Great Britain’s. The depression in the
Usited Sia'.es and elsewhere does not ap
proach the depres.ioa hero. The Bntuh
exports to the Uuited States are com
paratively nothing, either as regards vol
ume or value. The British food impor
tations are steadily increasing.
Washington, April 2.-—Tho Demo
cratic caucus to-d&y determined that Mr.

called Democratic programme for the
extra session would be tabled and the dis
cussion of political iaar.es postponed until
the questions involved in the army ap
propriation bill sball have Joeen brought
before the Senate for aotioif. No action
was taken on the question of permitting
general legislation daring the pres
ent session, bnt tbe prevalent sentiment
appeared to be strongly in favor of re
stricting the legislative business to the
passage of the appropriation bills.
The joint resolution introduced in the
Senate to-day by Mr Harris, and referred
to the Committee on Foreign Relations
sets forth in a preamble that it is the
dooire and wish of the government and

believed to be mutually beneficial to the

that the President of the United-States

Mr Townsend, of Illinois, next spoke
on the Democratic side of the question.
He did not know by what what authori
ty Mr. Garfield spoke when ha intimated
that these bills would not receive the
sanction of tue President, but if that
propheoy wa* to be verified, there .was
no man so blind or prejudiced as not to
