Wasiuxgtojt, April 7,18CC.
Yonr readers will be glad to learn that the
Hon. Alexander II. Stevens, United States
Senator from Georgia, has been here for sev
eral days, and is in excellent health and spir
its. He has had two interviews with the
President, and one each with thc Secretary
of State, Secretary of War. and Gen. Grant
all of which have been in the highest degree
pleasant and satisfactory. The presence here
of Mr. Stephens will Jmvo a very beneficial
effect upon tbc interests of the State of Geor
gia and of her citizens. The President has
expressed himself as haring great confidence
in the wisdom, experience and ability of Mr.
Stephens, and manifests a disposition to con
sult him upon many subjects relating to the
interests of the South, and his restoration
policy.
Mr. Stephens has l«en the recipient of
marked attention ever since he has been here.
A great many Senators and Representatives
have called to sec him, Republicans as well ns
Democrats. At tho brilliant party given by
General Grant on Fridry night, President
Johnson and Mr. Stephens were the two lions
of thc evening. A lady, equally distinguish'
cd for her wit and beauty, remarked to mo,
after observing the distinguished, attention
which, every body paid to these two celebri
ties, (and that, too; at an entertainment
crowded with people of celebrity) “Well,
must say, I hope at our next election, we’ll
eleict Mr. Johnson President and 31 r. Ste
phens Vice-Presidcntof the United States.”
That may or may not be. But as certain as
thc,sun rises, the day is not far distant when
the statesmen of the South will resume
theip .former ascendancy here. Mr. Ste
phens certainly seems to have w on‘all hearts.
Tho battle in the Senate on thc Civil Rights
bill and thc Veto began on Wednesday, the
4th inst., and was kept up with, great vigor
on both sides. Mr. Trumbull's speech, on the
4th, was able and ingenious, hut it produced
no effect. It assailed the positions taken b;
President Johnson, but it left them firm an<
unshaken. ,Tlie speech of Reverdy Johnson,
on the other hand, on tbc 5th, was a most
masterly defense of the President’s restoration
policy, and produced a profound impression
in the Senate. The interest culminated, how
ever, on Friday; the 0th, as at was known on
that day that the vote would be taken. The
Radicals had labored day ahd night, during
the preceding ten days, to secure the requisite
thirty-three votes. They had succeeded in
getting a Radical from Vermont into .the seat
of Senator Foote. They had failed, however,
to get another Radical from New Jersey into
the seat of Senator Stockton. To Mr. Scovel,
President of the State Senate of New Jersey,
is dne the credit of having prevented this.
Mr. Scovell is n Republican, but, like Mr.
Cowan, Mr. Doolittle and Mr. Lane, of Kan
sas, he stands up nobly in support of the Pre
sident’s policy ofrestoration. His vote alone,
in the New Jersey Legislature, prevented the
return of a Radical U. S. Senator in thc place
of Mr. Stockton. Evciy sort of influence was
brought to bear upon him, in order to induce
him to yield.' But it was all in vain. He de
clared that he intended to stand by the Presi
dent’s policy, ,nr.d to defend that policy by
every means in his power. He faithfully kept
his word, and thc New Jersey Legislature has
now adjourned tine die, and without filling
Senator Stockton’s scat So much for thc
firmness and patriotism of one man.
The radicals in Congress therefore, gained
nothing by the dxpulsidn of Mr. Stockton;
and failing in that quarter, they turned their
Attention to the two Senators from New York.
Messrs. Harris and Morgan. Here, I blush to
writo it, they found a more fruitful soft to
work upon. What influences they brought
to bear, I kqow not, but they must have been
powerful ones. Mr. Harris and Morgan arc
both gentlemen of education, of culture, of
high social standing. They know perfectly
woll, that the civil rights bill is an unconsti
tutional enactment They realized nil the
wrongs and miseries and suflcrings tliat would
be caused If it were to bec4i...c a law. They
kuow that it never cbnld be excuted, and
that an attempt to execute it might lead to
violence, bloodshed, civil war, and revolu
tion. And yet they consented to vote for the
bill. But they concealed their intentions,
and it was supposed, till Friday allt. noon
that they would vote to sustain the veto.
The proceedings on Friday began by
spcecji from Mr. Lane, pfKnnzas, who plant
ed himself squarely, upon the;; President’s
platform. In the course of his remarks he
said: “But this l do know, that the Repub
lican party, of which I am a member, is
crumbling to pieces; and that every; day we
postpone the admission of the eleven South
ern States, insures the destruction of that
party. One more victory like the Connect!
cut election, would ruin tlic Republican par
ty.” This able speech of Mr. Lane’s, which
was of considerable length, provoked the
anger of radicals, because it had unsparingly
denounced them; ,and Senator Wade, of
Ohio replied in a most violent and abusive
speech, in which he talked nbant thc Presi
dent in the style of a low pot house bully.—
Thc galleries of the Senate were crowded
with negroes, and lie seemed to talk on pur
pose to please them. ti ■ •
The great speeches of tho day were made
by Mr. Doolittle, and Mr. Davis of Kentucky.
I wish your readers could have heard Mr.
Doolittle. It was a speech worthy of the
Senate in thc days of Webster and Clay:
There were three years yet of this admin
istration, during which the country may live
or perish. He had discovered thc elements of
a collision before the session of Congress, and
he had striven and would strive to prevent it.
He saw among his friends a disposition to act
toward the President at though the Execu
tive were unworthy of their counsel. lie
deprecated this feeling. Gentlemen belong
ing to the Union party denounced others of
that party for supporting thc President nnd
lik_policy, and they called the President a
traitor for carrying out that policy.”
Mr. Doolittle proceeded to show the adop
tion of this policy, stop by step, by Mr. Lincoln
nnd his administration; its indorsement by
Congress, ns late ns March of last year; the
ration of this policy by Mr. Lincoln in
lib speech but three days before his death,
nnd the faithful adherence of Mr. Johnson to
the measure and policy adopted by, nnd the
process of consummation when the present
Executive succeeded Mr. Lincoln. The hitter
had 1 "Id down the track on which the ear of
t ions upon the track and threw the car of
State otf the track.
Mr. Doolittle said lie had received a des
patch informing him that the Legislature of
liis State had passed a. resolution requesting
him to vote for tjic Civil Rights bill, tlic
President's objection thereto notwithstand
ing. -i t
, “I regret, sir,” said Mr. Doolittle, “that I
cannot comply with tlieae instructions; bat,
believing as I do, this bill to be unconstitu
tional, I cannot vote for it. I rcsnect thc
opinions of the gentlemen composing the
legislature of Wisconsin. But, sir, they have
been misinformed, deceived, and misled —
They cannot seo what I have seen here,
they had been here, they would think and
act differently.”
Mr, Doolittle read from letters from gen
tlemen of great intelligence sojourning in the
South, to prove that shameful misrepresenta
tions of the real sentiments of th6 Southern
people have been made by newspapers
through their correspondents. One of Mr.
Doolittle’s corrcsDondcnts says accounts in
the Northern press are mere carricatures of
Southern sentiment, and tliat he has never
heard of any conspiracy or effort, or intention
of any kind, to resist the Government or
laws, or to oppress thc negro.
Mr. Doolittle then went on to prove that
the Southern pcox>le were thc best friends of
the negro, and tliat they were doing all in
their power to promote hb real and best in
terests. He cited particularly the recent acts
passed by thc legislature of Georgia on this
subject; and concluded,in Substance, as fol
lows :
“I shall disregard ihese instructions, and
vote to sustain thc veto. I am aware, sir,
that by this act, I may terminate my political
exbtcnce. Be it so, sir.- I could not sit here
a day, witli thc load upon my conscience that
I should have to bear, if I failed in this hour
to discharge, my duty to my country.” Itrilj^
send you a copy of Ihi? truly eloquent speed;.
Hon. Garrett Davis, of Kentucky, followed
in an able and eloquent speech of two hours
length, of Which I will also Gend you a copy.
In the course of his remarks he declared that
the passage of this bill would destroy the lit
tle remnant that remained, of Constitutional
liberty, “Pass this bill,” Wc exclaimed, “and
the government ,i|. reyolulipiu^ed^ ^.'wpuld
rather livq under a .monarchy;a thousand
times, than under such a government as we
w;ll then have.” •) i •
It was now 6 q'dock, and the day having
been cloudy, the Senate. Chamber was dark,
it being lighted only from the glass coiling
above. By the new apparatus for lighting
the Capitol, the gas is turned on in an in*
stout, so that the flames of gas jet forth from
hundreds of gas burners all at once, not one
of which ia visible. The gas burners are
placed just above the glass ceiling, and the
light shines through the beautiful stained
lass.
Mr. Saulsburv, of Delaware, made a brief,
but exceedingly eloquent and effective speech,
in defense; of the President^ policy. He had
scarcely begun to speak, wh^n. hs quick as a
flash of lightning, all thc gas burners were
lighted, and a: flood of soft radiance poured
down and filled the chamber. The effect was
very beautifnl. ; ' -
Mr. Sautibury said:
I rise to say, sir, tffat in my judgment the pass
age of this bill is an inauguration of revolution.—
it is well, sir, that tlie American people should
take warning and set their house in order, for it ia
Ible that t lie people will patiently submit to
aven knows, we nave liaa enough or blood-
nough of mourning In every household.—
There are too many newly-made graves for any one
to wish to see more. Attempt to exeentethis taw
within the limits of any State of this Union, and
in my judgment this country will again be plunged
iuto all the horrors of civil war..
In lay own State—an btfmble State in point of
numbers, bnt a State ot gallant aeas—your law
will never be observed by the judiciary of that
State, most of them of the Republican party.—
There is not, I say, a Republican Judge—we never
bad a Judge so deaf to the teachings of the great
luminaries of the law as to attempt to enforce such
a flagrantly unconstitutional law or act as this. I
shall not again enter upon the constitutionality or
unconstitutionality or the act; bnt, air, if it bc not
grossly, palpably, flagrantly unconstitutional, then
flve-and-twenty years of some diligent study of the
law have availed me nothing. "
The printed words of this speech convc-
no idea ofthc thrilling cflect which they pro
duced, as they were uttered with passionate
vehemence, but with all tho graces of pol
ished oratory. The Senate and tho galleries
sat spell-bound, almost every person bending
forward, and hanging on the eloquent pe
riods.
Mr. McDougnll, of California, also warned
the Republican Senators of the consequences
of passing a. bill so flagrantly unconStitu
tional and revolutionary: but it was all in
vain.’ WB
At half-past 6 the vote was taken, and the
bill was passed over thc veto by a vote of 33
to 15.
Mr. Wright, of New Jqreey, bad got up
r rom a sick bed, in order to vote for the Pre
sident’s policy. Mr. Dixon was not able to
be present. '
When the roll came to be called, it was
known, of course, that the Cite of thc bill
would depend upon the way that the New
York Senators voted. No demonstration
was made when the name of Mr. Harris was
called, and lie voted aye. But when 31 r. Mor
gan's name was called, every eye was fixed
upon him. In a tremulous and scarcely audi
bio tone, he replied, “nye;” but so profound
was the silence that hi3 response was distinct
ly heard. In an instant the galleries, filled
with a mixed assemblage of blacks and whites
burst forth in cheers and clappings of hands
Sumner, Wade, Chandler, Crcsswell, Grimes,
Hare, Morrill, Trumbull and Wilson crowded
around Mr. Morgan, shook him by the hand,
patted him on the bock, and those that could
neither reach hands nor back contented them
selves with smoothing down his hair. Mr. M.,
I believe, was pretty near unconscious of all
this. He was as pale os death, and sat as
motionless as a block of marble. Thc tu
mult was so great that the proceedings of tlie
Senate were suspended. The hubbub on the
floor and tho buzzing in thc galleries con
tinued. Rap, rap, rap, went thc Presidcn’t
avel. Everybody knew that thc game was
up, and that tlic calling of the rest of thc
names was a mere lorm. However, they were
called,and then,when the vote was announced,
the galleries roared and stamped and cheer
ed again, black women and white women
waved their handkerchiefs, and negroes who
had been sitting in their shirt sleeves waved
their jackets and hurraed.

Specfitl to the Cincinnati Gazette.
Washington, April 9.
The proceedings of the House to-day on
the passa«»e of the Civil Rights bill over the
President’s veto were of great interest, though
the excitement on the occasion was not so in
tense as that on its passage 1 last.Friday by the
SenAte. Tlie galleries 'were crowded to their
utmost extent at an early hour and remnined
so throughout the day. The floor of the
chamber was also crowded, there being upou
it scarcely less, than 200 privileged persons.
Judge Wilson calletl up the bill and message
at a Quarter past 1. ■ The opposition made' a
slight resistance^ but were overborne by at
least three to-one. The reading of the two
documents occupied just an hour, and then
Mr. Wilson at onee called the previous ques
tion on the passage of the bill, saying thnt
over forty speeches had been delivered upon
it, and he' proposed to let the President have
the last word, and ask the House to answer

Bishop Andrew was in the chair.
The resolution of Itcv. Dr. Myers raising a

a vote of 60 yeas to 60 nays.
A communication from the Methodist Pro

the General Methodist Episcopal Church,
South, proposing union with this church, if

Several communications were received re

affect their holding their church property.
Another requested that tlie colored church

South, like that of the German churches.
Another intimated tliat there would be an
important communication sent to the General

A great many conference and other com

From thc Missouri Conference there was
reported a recommendation that there should
be a distinct prohibition of the introduction
of partisan or political matter in pulpit dis

of this church, but as a testimony of its opin

the Germans to leave this church ami unite

THE YEARS OF TIME.
Tlie years go by us like a trooping band
Of Pilgrim Prophets, chanting requiems
Or dirges o'er buried hope* and joys
They, mocking, promised. As, behind
Their tomb-ward feet, the dusty veil of
dim ‘ /
Forgetfulness enshrouds their paling forms,
We hear thcjdying tones of man’s sad hymn
And the tranipings of their muffiled feet
far down
Tlie Everlasting Aisles. They conic like
kings
And go like skeletons. The one just passed
Wore blooded armor,—clanging—treading
o’er
A bleeding—tearful—horrified humanity.
This Nemesis of Time, with mailed hand.
Smote creeds and politics and forms of
State—
It smote the true and beautiful and good—
It smote on sea and shore—on* hill and
plain—
It smote with brand and blade and hostile
hosts,
Ififernal enginry, and all that gold
And brain and energy of Hate invoked
To wreak its gastly will.
Remorseless war—
All pitiless and dire and big with woe—
Enwreathed the faded year with gory
crowns,
Engorged its maw with brothers’ flesh and
blood.
Lit up its path with torch of dunning
homes—
With blazing trains of flying shot and
shell—
Witli lurid Phlcgethons from guns, and
mines,
And, midst a wasted empire, paused to con
Its work of blood. But—
Let its wailing die
Like echoes heard in childhood’s troubled
dreams.
Tlrnk not of nameless graves; of agonies
From mothers, wives, and maidens wrung;
of groans
From man’s great heart; of wasted hall
and hut—i
Prolific fields in wilderness. Let some di
vine
Nepenthe give a swift oblivion !
The Miserere ends. Its records is
With God. In solemn thought, the human
heart
In silence ponders sorrow’s Epic past.
And wails, in faith, God’s future ben

these proceedings, quite an interesting fact
came out. On a motion of Niblack, of Indi

corrected himself, and said it would be enter

unity of heart of our common country, and
for thc full restoration of Cliristian sympathy

A Frightful Programme.—The Wash
ington Chronicle and other leading Rndical
journals are discussing thc probabilities of an
.uraied collision between tbe supporters of the
President and tbc upholders of thc mnjority
in Congress. The Chronicle feels justified by
tho recent vetoes aud the peace proclamation
to attribute hostile designs to President John
son, und Wilkes’ Spirit ot the Time* goes so
far as to indicate the mode in which the con
flict will bc inaugurated. The President hav
ing declared the insurrection at an end, will
summon thc Representatives of all tbe States
to meet at Washington in extra sestion—their
admission to thc halls of Congress will be re
sisted by tbe Radicals, who will bc overruled
the President, who will thus secure a majority
in Congress, compelling the minority to con
vene elsewhere. That patriotic body, assum-
injg to be the true and only Congress, will go
on with its legislation and endeavor to estab
lish its authority under the anspices of the |
Supreme Court. Here, says the editor, will
be “two separate, distinct and rival govern
ments,” between whom war must necessarily
result, and in which tho South would be a
unit for the President, while “ the North,
casting off all business and personal concerns,
would address itself en matte to arms. The
Times thinks “the war will discharge its fury
solely within tuo North.”
Pitt and Johnson—A Comparison.
Tho position of Prcsidenl Johnson at tin-
present moment, though unprer.xlented in tho
history of tlia Unifr l State -. is not without a
paralleUif not un exact precedent, in the his.
of English parlimneritiry strugg s. When
Pitt, took office at thc King's desire in 17S3,
in the. teeth of a large House of Commons
majority against hiin‘he was very much in
the condition of President Johnson. Tho
support of the King guaranteed him a con
tinuance in office, just as the President is now
firmly seated for more than three yeats longer
by the letter of the Constitution ot the States.
At the same time, the British nation was un
questionably not represented by the majority
in the Commons, but was strenuous in its
support of the principles of Pitt liimsclf;
just as thc strength of public opinion in thc
States is said to be in favor of Mr. Johnson’s
views. Moreover, the English parliamentary
majority was not so much insured by any
compactness of political partisanship, based
on uniformity of political theories, as by the
temporary union of prominent party leaders.
So it i* now in America.
While an intensity ot personal antagonism
is arrayed against the President, he rests on
a basis of a political view which is not only
sound and self-consistent, but lias tlm im
mense advantage of being capable of exposi
tion in the simplest and most pointed terms.
There is r.o escape from thc l .gical dilemma
in which his adversaries find themselves. His
tactics, too, are evidently those of Pitt. He
has simply to hold on, while his adversaries
damage themselves by infuriated efforts to
crush him anti his policy. Every week that
pas cs is so much gain to him, and so much
loss to them. He cannot indeed imitate the
action of Pitt by first of all reducing thc par
liamentary majority against him from fifty or.
sixty to one and then dissolving, to thc dis
may of the 160 riicmbers who failed to lie re
elected and were laughed at as “Fox's Mar
tyrs.” But thc practical result must be thc
same so far as the real working power of the
actual Congress is concerned; and it is only
by such struggles, when the forms of a con
stitution ere observed by all sides, that its
real strength is thoroughly tested.— London

I The Desha and Kimbrough Duel.—A
Kentucky correspondent of the New York
News says that a duel occurred lately between
Capt. Joseph Desha and Cr.pt. A’erander
Kimbrough, both of Cynthiana, t;.o days,
since. Capt. Kimbrough was, in the peculiar
language of the telegram, “shot through and
through” and seriously wounded. Captain
Kimbrough was in the United States army,
and Capt. Desha in thc Confederate, hut the
duel.is said to have arisen out of events an
tecedent to the war. Capt. Desha waa a
Captain of the First Kentucky Regiment.—
He was wounded in the shoulder twice at
Dranesville and Chickamauga.and was grazed
aiid knocked down, apparently dead, by a
spent cannon ball at Murfreesboro, He was
most painfully wounded in the arm at Ring-
gold, and while . suffering from his wound,
was Tendered the rank of Brigadier General
by the President of the Confederate States,
but could nor accept the position on account
of hi* physical condition.

British Experiments in Negro Suff
rage.—In the British house of lords, on the
13th ult., the bill abolishing tho constitution
of the island of Jnmnica, and transferring the
government of that colony to the crown, was
discussed.
In the course of the discussion Earl Grey,
who said he liad paid particular attention to
tlie negro problem for thirty years, and had
devoted particular attention to Jamaica, made
thc following remarte: “Slow as the pro-
;rcss of the colony has been, tbe negroes by
egrees have acquired property, and a cor
responding political influence, and it is pretty-
clear that in a short time the political as
cendancy, would have passed out ofthc hands
of the whites into those of the negroes. This
fact explains the readiness of the Jamaica
parliament to commit political suicide. Her
Majesty's Government has acted most pruden
tly. in accepting that sacrifice, and proposing
to place thc government of thc colony under
the restrictive authority of the crown. From
all the evidence I have been able to collect, I
have come to the conclusion that for many
years to come thc negroes will be unfit to ex
ercise political power, and, therefore, in my
opinion, to have abolished thc authority of
the oligarchy, and to have placed thc political
power in thc hands of thc blacks, would have
left the colony in a worse position than before
I confess I look with great alarm at thc pro
position to place the political power in the
units ot those who wield tlie brute physical
force of tlie colonv.
