March 4.-In the Senate, K ' ot Wisconsin, from the - S , on public bnlldings and ‘"“Is reportedly favorably a bill for the ^n'of a public building at Fortress e. Va Placed on the calendar. ^r^Jonas* submitted a joint resolution,. /Jh was referred to the committee on ^nrovement of the Mississippi river, Sing an appropriation of $100,000 for protection of existing levees on tho 'Tkr.'gi'dar'order was dispensed with, J educational bill taken np and Mr. Bay- •f,1 took the floor. ft had been his intention, Mr. “ 1 said, to cast a silent ,„te on this measure, but the de- bste bad more and more shown the inter est snd importance of this bill. Just in eroportion as its importance and necessity jj,,] grown upon him, so had his desire to flnd iustifieation for it. but he thought that it was seldom that a measure could belirou.lit before Congress that would have such an eiToct upon cur form of government as the bill now before the Senate It was now tho proposition to tax fte people of the United States to support the education of the respective Mates. It was a proposition accompanied with a condition, that condition being that in the proportion of ignorance existing in the States the money was to bo expended by the genera! government. Acting as rep resentative men. executing a great trust of the republic’s power, under the limitations of a written charter, not only under civil obligations. bat under those of religion added. it was the duty of Senators to look carefully to their ,(> Mr. Bayard read from a newspaper with which be said the Senator from Rhode Island (Mr. Anthony) was connected, fn which, speaking of the Blair bill, an edi torial saw: "Tho passage of it would bo by an nltra constitutional though neces sary authority, as a logical consequence of the enfranchisement of tho negro," and that the State schools would have to con form to the views of tlie general govern rnent. Mr. Bayard assented to these views, as far as the ultra-constitu- • tionality of the bill was concerned. Sever before, lie said, had the conflict be tween duty and inclination been so great with him as now. ..... The earnestness and straightforward ness of Mr. Blair in regard to the bill had gained Mr. Bayard’s regard, and he be lieved him to be animated wholly by the sense of high, patriotic duty. The ad dresses that bad been made in the Senate by different Senators had ’ so Impressed him that lie felt obliged carefully to review his opinion, lie knew the South, he said, ltc had studied tlie condition of its people snd bad observed tlieir struggle. After the war, lie had observed the flower of tlieir manhood slain, tlieir strong men and warriors crippled, the desolation of tlieir bogie,, the npheaval of their social sys tem; but there was one cause more devas tating than all others, and that was that after the plowshare of desolation had done its work, and at tho moment when every self-governing agency that tlie law could supply was coming into operation, the party in control of the general govern meat ado-*- " " " dopted the un r policy of inter- nliappr dieting every vestige of self-government in the South, until it Was absolutely annihi lated. Mr. Bayard did not cite tills for purposes of reproach or recrimination, but merely aa a part of history. Mr. Jlavard had conic into publlc life, he su’d, since the wtr, and his miln object in doing so had been to do what might be In his power to bled up the wounds of civil wtr in his country to assist dp the restorstion of all the Slates to their "roper position of equality in ilia Union. To that end he hid opposed OTery measure which lie hod deemed unequal and unjait. 1 fe bnd been in this chamber when not a single true representative of the interests amt sympa thies of tlie Southern people was found in it. and when such representation aa ex isted was in truth a scandalous misrepre sentation. How different the condition which existed to-day! The peoplo of the south were now represented according to Uielr will, and the courageous and large- any other suspicious craft that may ar rive at or soil from that port. THE DANVILLE INVESTIGATION. Congressman Wlsa Describes Coalition Elaotlon Methods. [telegraphed to the associated peess.] Washlnuton, April 5.—Geo. H. Southall, postal clerk between Lynchburg and Bris tol, Tenn„ was examined before tbe Dan ville sub committee tills morning. He was in Lynchburg the night before the election and made notes of two speeches delivered at a public meeting there by Mr. White head, editor of the Lynchburg Advauct, and Mr. Marie, a lawyer of Lynchburg The witness read his notes. The speakers said in substance that theyftlie Democrats) intended to carry the election "by blood, if necessary," and that oil arrangements had been made to that end. SeiitimenL-i of approval for tho action of the whites of Danville and denunciations of tlie traitor Malionc were uttered. He described the circulars whicli were put out by tlie Demo crats. One of them grossly misrepre sented tlie statements made by Governor Cameron in a public speech- On cross- examination by Senator Vance, tlie wit ness described a feature of tlie meeting which he said bad not occurred to him before. A colored brass band ap proached tlie meeting, followed by a crowd, und some one in the meeting said: "Here they are—come to break us up! protect yourselves 1" The whites formed in line, and a great many pistols were drawn. The approaching crowd bore a banner in scribed “Wo are with you,” and the whites were reassured. The witness said that a good many of the Democrats disapproved the sentiments uttered in the speeches of Whitehead and Marie. He did not under stand the speakers to threaten violence in order to secure rotes, but to protect tlie polls from violence. CONGRESSMAN GIBSON TESTIFIES. Eustace Gibson, Congressman from West Virginia, was examined. He was at Culpepper, Va.. on election day, and sev eral days before, assisting ins brother, who was a candidate for the State Legisla ture. The witness made speeches in the county and had frequent consultations with both Democratic and Republican leaders. Up to tlie time of the riot the Democrats lit d confident hopes of carrying the county. Tlie colored people became very much excited by the news of .the riot, anil would thereafter hold no intercourse with the Democratic leaders, Tlie news soliditied the colored vote. On the morn ing of election day lie went very early to the polling place, where he expected to meet two colored Democrats. The voters came early, and about 130 colored men formed in line on the side o( the road and shook their tick ets, saying: “Tlieffc arc tho colored men’s tickets.” This wasdone with the intention of intimidating the two colored Democratic workers. The first colored man who voted the Democratic ticket secured a pledge that the witness would not make known the fact. After voting tlie man broke and ran. The color line at that polling place was entirely drawn by the colored men. The news of the riot waa very damaging to the Democrats. CONGRESSMAN WISE ON THE STAND. George D. Wise, of Virginia, took the witness chair, and was examined by Sen ator Vance. Immediately after the dis cussion with Colonel Sims, he made a jour ney with that gentleman, and in conver sation Sims stated his confidence that he would carry tlie election in Danville and COTTON MANUFACTURERS REBECCA EVERINGHAM The convention adjourned, subject to a j call of the committee. This was the larp- est and most influential meeting of cotton manufacturers ever held in the South.

Mr. llayard waa grateful to God that thb bad come, but this could not affect hb theory of the Union. That wae unchanged. It was a union ol equal States—what Madison had called flic compound repubii ; of America. This hill, n Mr. Bayard's opinion, threatened tlie harmony of our political system, l ie then entered on an elaborate argument, sup porting it by copious reading from tho t firr'il,it and other early authorities, to show the unconaUtutionality of thc bill, claiming that Congress had no power to tax the people at large to educate tlie people of any one State. Congress had no fund from which to pay the ex penses contemplated. Taxes would havo to be levied in order to meet them, and if the bill before the Senate waste be passed, then logically and necessarily Congress can, according to the wiU of a mere ma jority, occupy the entire field covered by ”“te functions, and local self-government would die in apathy—It would shrink up from tlie disuse of its faculties, and the spring of our national life would become *y at Its source. Thb bill, Mr. Biyard contended, was centralisation run mad. In th" natural order, bodily nourishment came before mental nourishment, and was a more iiulbpentlhle necessity. Would anybody (ay (bat Congress could i priate money to be drawn from taxal support the citizen* of tbe Southern States. It satined to him quite aa fatal to stab our fprra of government in one vital P*rt »• another, and the hand that Inflict ed the wound should not be hb. No 8tate bed ever divested Itself of tbe power, nor could It, before God, divest itaelfof the du ty ot providing for the elevation of its own unorancc and poverty. The concession to Congress of the power ao-umed In thb ed ucational measure would be to start the eounlry on a course which must end In withering the States, The Senate then adjourned till to-mor row. 1 noosa.

Where men had not been assessed by the proper otllcere, they went to the commbsiouer and received a certificate irom lnm that they had been over looked. Upon thb paper the treasurer received their capitation tax, in order that thev might vote. No oath was re quired. it was a common practice all over the State by whites and blacks. There was, thc witness said, in thc city of Rich mond, a regular qualified collector of dc. linqucut taxes. The Coalitionists, how ever, selected a second man for this duty, who opened lib offico in the United States custom house at Richmond and placed guards at tlie door. None were allowed to pass in who were unaccompanied by guards. Streams oi colored men were guided In there by these attendants. Tlie witness was warned by prominent I Republicans that things were go ing on there that, if known, would shock the public. The Witness em ployed a man and gave him money to go and pay hb delinquent tax, as he had a legal right to do. The man went and waa threatened with death. Senator Lapham objected to thb. on the ground that the witnesewae stating what was not within his personal knowledge. Senator Vance insisted on having the statement. ... I Mr. Wise continued; He re|>ortcd that he could not remain there; that he was ac cused ot helngaspy for the witness and wav threatened with violence. Tbe witness then employed s friendly colored man to I go and watch the course of affsirs, anil this nun. too, was ejected. The law re quired that the collector should executes bond, snd it wss discovered on the dsy of ItMclectlon thst tlie second collector had S Hveti no hood. Tha reason for thb was at one dollar had been made to serve the imrpose ol paying tax tor four hun dred colored men. When a colored man entered, a dollar was handed him. When it was pakl to the officer, it was carried back to tbe doorkeeper to be handed to the next colored man. The fudge of the court ordered that none of the tax receipts issued by John S. Sncllings, the second collector, be recog nised, because of the discovery that he waa not under bond.
