The question was the amend- ment of Mr. Sumner, thatall officers and agents of the Government, ex: depertment clerks, whose ealaries exceed $1,000 per annum, shall be appointed by the President, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate. In the course of some remarks Mr. Cowan said the whole number of offices in the gift of the President was 2,434. The wholenamber of Temovyals made during the year was 446. After some debate the Senate adjourned. Hovsgk.—Yesterday afternoon, the bill in- troduced by Mr. Stevens for the reconstrac- tion ofthe late rebel States being under dis- cussion— Mr. Bingham addressed the House at con- opposition to the bill. He it was variance with the Constitutional amendment. This bill neither stood with the constitutional amend- Toent, nor with the duty of Congress to give due protection to citizens of the United States within the disorganized States. He would have the lately rebel States go on and perform acts for the ratification of the constitutional amendment, even though they were not regu- Jarly organized States, and the ratification of theiracts « uently by Congress would legalize them. ‘he sixth section of the bill disfranchised & million of men, which was & clear departure from the constitutional amendment, which opposed no disability but the disability to hold office. This bill not enly decitizenized a million of people, but it dis- franchised them aleo. He declared that this bill, instead of being a bill of reconstruction, wasa bill of destruction; instead of its being a bill of restoration. it was @ bill of disunion and perpetual dismemberment. Keferring to Mr. Ashley's bill, he showed bow absurd it was to deny that the rebel States were States, for the Executive, the Judiciary, and even Con bad recognized them—Congress bad ™: appropriations for judges of the United States in the States of Fiorida, Alabama, and other districts. He looked upon both bills as departures from the constitutional amend- ment. Mr. Dawson fellowed’in an argument to prove that the Presidential policy was the true solution of the national difficulties. Mr. Baker obtained the floor, but yielded to Mr. Stevens, on whese motion House went into Committee of the Wholeon the state of the Union, (Mr. Lawrence, of Pa., in the chair,) and resumed the consideration of the legislative appropriation biil. On motion of Mr. Washburre, (Ill...) the ap- propriation for steamboat inspectors and su- perintendents was increased $10,000 for the more thorough investigation of the causes of Tecent disasters. The clause appropriating $40,000 for facili- tating communication between the Atlantic and Pacific States by electric telegraph was struck out. On motion of Mr. Price, the clause to pa: five watchmen in the public garden was. ounek out. Mr. Radford moved to amend the clause for the payment of the Metropelitan police for the District of Columbia by reducing the increased compensation from fifty per cent. to twenty- five per cent. At the suggestion of Mr. Farquhar, he put the reduction at twenty per cent. The amendment was agreed to. ‘ On motion of Mr. Bergen, the date for the commencement of increased compensation was ebanged from fst July, 1963, to Ist November, 1866, Mr. Harding (I1!.) moved to amend the par- agraph by adding the following porviso: Provided, That hereafter no person shall be employed as police or watéhman who had not served at least one year, or been wounded, in the army of the United States, and received an honorable discharge. Mr. Hale suggested that that was rather sweeping, and wouid remove from office ali the present fore®. 1t should be made simply Prospective. ‘Mr. Harding (Iil.) consented to modify the amendment by putting in the words «shail be appointed.” in suggestion of Mr. Radtord. the amend- ment was further modified by striking out the words “at least one year.” The amendment thue moditied was adopted. Mr. Kandall (Pa ) offered an additional sec- tion making an appropriation to pay the in- creased compensation yoted last session to clerks and employees. Mr. Stevens said it would not do to agree to that amendment this evening, and he cailed for & divieion on it. ‘The division showed—yeas 30, nays 15; no quorom being present. The division not being insisted on. the Chairman declared the amend- ment adopted. ‘he committee rose and reported the bill and the House adjourned. Attempt te ea Panic. ‘The Boston Journal's New York correspon- dent writes: One of the most villainous attempts to create eg came to lighton Thursday afternoon. Three men in this city, whose names are now well known, who hay itherto stood high in connection with mercantile affairs in this city, engineered a scheme through that had for its aim the reciauion of Government and bank stocks, and but for its timely discovery would ‘e ruined a large class of men. Having sold rt they designed to depress stocks that they might buy low, and having answered theirends they intended to Bull the market and make a fortune. They drew checksto the amount of Qve millions, and had tmem certifiedin the dif- ferent banks. Of course these five millions eh been resp psa en by the instead of depositing the checksas cash the: them to private bankers and obtained ou five millions more, which were also certified. Thus they took out in one hour ten millions from the circulation. One of these managers calied in a million that was out on loan, and others did the same. the same against loaning any money, calling in ot the loans, and announced that there was to bea terrible panic that would sweep everything away. The banks lent them. selves to this vile scheme, though they did it ignorantly. These four men took out of - Ke ‘eirculation, in one day, the tremendous sum of thirty-five millions. The scheme was @: in ‘the c house. One xposed learing use. r drawn by certain parties bad not been used. An exposure at once took place, and the panic ‘was averted. How much these men have gained by this attempt to create financial dis- aster, the future will tell. ——————™~__ S&F Prairie chickens have been sel at cents apiece at Springfield, Mo. pana &7- A Wisconsin Court !ately decided tha! man has aright to chastise his wife to a «‘reas- onable exteat.” peopees cp eieaetione falling. s ane fa not fashionable in New York etween the ebeas clube sftie Onis owes” aoe.

Sayles Brown reported that the ex- ecutive commiuee had held a meeting in rela- tion to holding meetings im the various wards, and were ready to report as to holding meetings im the 7th Ward and Georgetown. Mr. F A. Bosweil, trom the eub-commitiee, peered that the 7th Ward meeting would be beid on Tuesday evening next, at Turner Hall, ‘per of avenue and 4% street. r. J. Beil Adams, from the sub-committee on the Georgetown meeting, submitted a writ- ten report, stating that after @ careful consult- ation witb tbe loyal men of Georgetowa, irre- spective of color, they deem it inexpedient te ipteriere with the municipal election of Georgetown, asthe matter of the election of the Mayor, Aldermen, and Council of that city is in the hands of the loyal Republicans, in whom yeur committee reposes the utmost con- fidence; and that an interference now on the part of the association would be rather detri- mental than advantageous. The colored citi- om . there in harmony with tne ‘be committee alse report that ned the suffrage bill aud found the 5th section defeetivese tar as retated to the comin, nicipsl elections of Washington and DB, as it the Mayors the rigbt to 4 ister on or before the first Tuesday in March, and the election comes off in George- town on the fourth Monday im Febroary, and there is nothin, bill compelling sach registry. Senat orri ttenUon was calied to the supposed insufficiency of bill. and he replied that a supplemental bill would be passed, giving the right to t mh comment Court of the District to appoint commissioners in the several wards to register voters. This the committee deem of great importa as wiih. out @ commission of loyal men the suffrage bill will become a nullity, and fail to accomplish tbe purpoee for which it war passed Mr. Brown moved to lay report on the table, Mr. Joseph Williams remarked that the report was ridiculous. It says the Mayor and Council are joyal and true men. Messrs. Adams and UO. W. White.—ic don't Say any such thing. The motion to lay on tae table was lost. Mr. J. Sayles Brown.—Mr. Onairman, | rise to move— Dr. Boyd.—1 move the adoption of the repor’. The report was adopted. Mr. Brown moved that Messrs. Boeweill, Pearce, Baker, Crane, G. 5. Hepburd, and H Q. Johnson, taxe charge of the Seventh Ward as ag 2 adopted. Mr Brown moved that the committee which bad reported as to the Georgetown meeting make arrangements for holding a pablic meet- ing there. He deemed it necessary to have an auxilary seeociation in that city Mr. Adams stated that he had been in favor of organizing immediately; but after consulta- tion with these men he was forced to take a different view. lf an organization is gone into in Georgetown, it will distract the very people whose votes were expected by the Republicans. The gentiemen should first come over and confer with the Georgetown Republicans Mr. A. Watson._Name some wiite Kepub- licans of that city. Mr. Adams handed a list containing four names to the Secretary, which was read by tat officer. A Voice.—“One of these gentlemen is going to live in Philadelphia.” Mr. J. Brown said that bis motion was not intended to interfere with any organization there, but to give the Republieans a chance to gin an suxihary. Mr. Joseph Williams said that so long as it is true that there are not five righteous men in Georgetown, the association had better go over as a committee of the whole. He did not know who was fingering about the elec- lich, and some may be trying to advance pri- vate interests. It was the duty of the associ- atio that the loyal colored men are not misled. while the names of so few loyal white Republicans can be placed on paper, and there Were 50 Many colored people in Georgetown. It was true they were being organized. Mr. Adams remarked that the names read Were not ail the Republicans, bat were a few selected for ap entirely different purpose. The Republicans believe that they will be able to carry the election there if lefi alone. Mr. R. J. Hinton asked bow many in @eorge- town will this bill enfranchise.
