SE ee Che Evening Star. WASHINGTON, D. C., TUESDAY, MARCH 10, 1868. N°. 4,681. THE EVENING STAR Washington News and Gossip. Tux SiTvaTIoN.—The story afioat yesterday, strange to say, gained considerable credence, that Seeretary MeCulloch had tendered his resignation, and that it would be accepted by the President. Another statement was afloat to the effect that General Thomas would appear at the Unbinet meeting to-day and be recog- ized by the entire Cabinet, and would then icone general orders as Secretary of War. Some of the newspaper men visited Secretary McCul- loch this morning, in order to ascertain what truth there was in the statements regarding his course. Mr. McOulleeh declared positively that not one word had passed between himself and the President as to his resignation, and ‘that the stories to this effect were without foun- dation. Me had no intention whatever he said of tendering his resignation while the present condition of affairs existed. In regard to the statement that the Treasury Department had Tefused to honor drafts drawn by Mr. E. M. Stanton as Secretary of War, he said there was no foundation for such stories, and to use his language they were all “bosh.” If the Cabinet had intended to consider the case of General Thomas at the meeting to-day he said he had no knowledge of it, nor had it been intimated to him by the President. Secretary McOulloch thought there was undue excitement existing in political circles which would calm down however, in a few days. Tue Lever Last Eventxc.—The President’s levee last evening was atiended by a large and fashionable assemblage, among whom were many distinguished persons and hundreds of richly dressed ladies. The President, with the ladies of the Executive Mansion—Mrs. Patter- son and Mrs. Stover—received the visitors with their usual courtesy; Marshal Gooding presenting to the President, and Gen. Michler to the ladies. The Marine Band, under Prof. Scala, performed some fine selections of music during the evening, while the visitors prome- naded the East Room. Among those present were Secretary Seward, Secretary Welles and lady, Secretary McCnulloch, Secretary Brown- ing and lady, Postmaster General Randall and lady, Attorney General Stanbery, General Thomas, Assistant Secretary F. W. Seward and Miss Wharton; Sir Edward Thornton, the British Minister: Mr. Harris, Minister from the Sandwich Islands; Mr. Baltazzi, of the Turkish Legation; Mr. Benedetti, of the French Legation, and other foreign representative: Senators Davis and Vickers; Representatives Kerr, Barnes, Trimble, Uhanler, Adams, Wood, Mungen. Knott; Col. Moore and lady, Mrs. Senator Dixon and daughters, Mrs. General Michler, General Morris S. Miller and lady, Gov. Sharkey, of Mississippi; Jno. W. Thomp- son and lady, Admiral Lee, Lieut. Commander George Morris, Paymasters Cunningham and Boges, of the Navy; Hon. Montgomery Blair, Prof. Hilgard, Captain Hebb, ot the Marine Corpe; Gen. John L. Swift, of Boston; Hon. Joseph S. Wilson and lady; Edgar T. Welles, Solicitor Jordan, of the Treasury, and many other prominent persons. Conerrss To-Day.—Mr. Stevens appeared in the House to-day for the first time for seve- ral daye, but looking very feeble. He is carri- ed in a chair to his residence pear the Capitol toand from the House. He atiended the meeting of the Reconstruction Committee this morning, and afterthe House had assem- bled, reported from that Committee a bill to ad- mit the Alabama Representatives into Congress 8 soon as that State shall ratity the fourteenth amendment to the Constitution and adopt a constitution Republican in form. On motion of Mr. Stevens, the bill was made the special order for te-morrow, immedintely after the ex- piration of the morning hoor. Mr. Elliot from the Committee on Freedmen’s Affairs, reported a bill authorizing the Secreta- Ty of War to set apart certain lands in Florida for the freeémen. Mr. Fernando Wood objected to the language of the bill, and moved to amend it by makihg it to authorize the Secretary of War ad interim in- stead of Secretary ot War. The Republican side of the House would not listen to this, and it was voted down, and the bill as it stood, was then parsed. Tue TreasvryY Bonn DirriccLty—Tar MATTER ExPLatwEp.—The statement made in the House of Representatives by Gen. Logan, to the effect that Mr. Clark, Superintendent of the Printing Division at the Treasury Depart- ment, had obtain: d the certificates of three other officials of the Treasury to the destruction, in their presence, of cancelled bonds to the amount of $i5,610,.00, when in fact no such bonds had been destroyed, and what were supposed to be bonds were nothing but blank paper, seems to have been made from a misapprehe: sion of the case. The Retrenchment Commit- tee haying been instructed to inquire ito the matter, this morning visited the Department and examined into the maiter, but were soon satisfled that there was no’ criminality to be attached teany one. The facts in the case are substantially as follows: Some months since, Mr. Clarke was directed to print a cer- tain quantity of $5,000 registered certificates, but a short time after the work was commenced, the Retrenchment Committee had the same stopped, as they were at that time examining into the affairs of the Printing Division. On the 3ist of January, 1567, Mr. Clarke — delivered “to the —_ Register all the certificates which had been printed, to- gether with 3,700 sheets of paper which had not been printed, but were delivered and received us blank paper, and so recorded upon the books. Had the work been completed, $15,500,000 would have been issued on the 3,7u0 sheets, but they were receipted for as blank paper, aud turned over to the commission for destruction. The custom in the Printing Division is that when a certain amount of money is ordered to be printed the paper upon which the same is to be printed is issued, and each sheet charged on the books #8 so much money. For instance, if 1,000 sheets are issued for printing $1,000 bonds, the sheets are charged as $1,(00.000 before theyare printed, and they are recorded, registered, &c., assomany dollgrs. Should the work be stopped befure the sheets were all printid more or less of them would be in the shape of blank paper, although from the books it would appear that they Were as many bonds or dollars as it was designed to print. A portion of the paper upon which the $5,000 registered certificates were to be printed were recvipted for as money, in or- der to make the accounts square, although the words “blank paper” were in parenthesis after the figures $1,500,000, will therefore be seen that the $15,500,000 w@s not in bonds, but turned in as blank paper) and destroyed. Pretty Firg.—The Intlliyencer “cricket” bas heard Ole Bull, and gets off the handle after this sort: “We have no space to and splendid Norwegian of the im; tion which greeted ropes Jast night, nor of the trans- with his divine in- Hail last night. and dehghtfal success. and another such awaits our musical people to-night.” tat “another such” (whatever it is) is to beonhand to-night ‘THE Waite Hovex.—The regular meeting of the Cabinet was held te-day—all the members present, including General Thomas, who is rec- ogniaed by the President as Secretary of War RxcomstRvetion.—The following report w: s submitted to-day by the Reconstrnetior Com- mittee in connection with the bill for the ad- irsion of the State of Alabama: at ~ ‘The Committtee on Recoastraction, to whom Was referred the application of Alabama ask- ing Admission into the Union as a sovereign Diate, report : ‘That it is ther intention to pursue the spirit if not the letter of the law of Mareh 2%, 1967, en- ttled “An act supplementary to an act w pro- vice for the more efficient government of the Rebel States, passed March 2, 1867, and to fa- cilitate restoration.” : They especially intend to enforce the spirit of thal Jaw whes there seems to be any conilict in the facts in evidence between the spirit and the letter, Such is the true principles laid down by moral jurists for the government of judges. By the act two were evi- dently intended—one was to admit Ala- Dama as a State if. after full registration, with time for deliberation, a majority of her citizens should be in favor of admission. revent hasty and precipitate people should have duly examined the subject. Hence the law provided that not only Alabama, but all the conquered territory, should have all ber legal voters regis- tered by proper officers, and if a majority ot legal yoters thus registered should cast their Votes in favor of a constitution, a convention should be ordered for the purpose of framing one. Bat if a majority of all the registered votes ,by either their own volition or casualty, should not be cast inst & constitution, they should still be counted in the negative, a most unusual provision én our or any other Government, but in ordinary times but little effect except in so fap as re- movals and deaths took place bet ween the time of registration ana the time of voting. On the day of the Alabama election a most extraordi- nary and unexpected state of things exisied. In & very large portion of the State, especially in the Republican portion. of the State, a very severe storm raged from morning to night. ‘The streams were swollen to such an impassa- ble degree that it is testified to by Gov. Smith, now elected Governor of the State, and other responsible gentlemen, that it kept from the olls numbers of voters, who would otherwise ave attended. In attempting to reach places of election one or more persons were drowned which deterred many from proceeding further Thus, all those who chose to stay away were counted as voting against the constitution, though ff they had all gone and voted againstit, it would uot have changed the result froma positive majority for it toa majority against it, Enis teature alone of this unfortunate clection is sufficient, in the opinion of the committee, to admit the State, because a large majority of the legal voters then in the State, and known to have cast their ballots for it, besides a vary Jarge LAA cade of the regis: red electors, were deterred by the most {nfamous threats from coming to the polls, or when there from casting their yotes for the constitution. Very few white men did, and yery few black men dared thus to cast their votes, lest they should be deprived of food for which they are greatly suffering. All this is distinctly proved by the sworn testimony of the most respectable portion of Alabama. Indeed, nearly two hun- dren Isborers have voluntarily come forward singly, and testified to their violent discharge since the election by their cruel employers, for he ving exercised the elective franchise accord- ing to their own will and pleasure. A careful analysis has been made, as nearly as could be, of the number of votes that were destroyed, boxes seized and thrown out of the window, and other modes of violence used to destroy them, and it ix believed from all this that the number of votes thus destroyed and deterred from the polls by violence, outrage, and fraud, had they been east would have over- whelmed all those counted against the Oonsti- tution, whether cast or enumerated as cast by renson of sickness, absence or death. Some- time before the Alabama election the Conven- tion saw the injustice of the law and requested Congress to restore the majority principle in the vote upon the Constitation. “The Heuse did not hesitate, perceiy ing its justice, to passan act and cent it to the Senate. “The Senate. by some unaccountable delay from motives which it is hard to fathom, suffered that act to slesp upon their files tor two months, until after the fate of the Alabama election was aunounced. They then took it up and passed it, and it has now passed both Houses of Congress. The princi- ple, therefore, that a majority of the yotes cost should govern has been restored, and your committee can see no reason ' why t should not govern in the present case, The circumstance of the almost unheard of storm on the day of election, the violence of human pressure but little less malignant and raging; and the wild phrensy of the former masters at the polls, together with the eviden| injustice of the principle in qnestion pone which no one has yet acted, teem to your committee to demand that Alabama shonid be admitted to the Union, as one of the States thereof. But while this free people are re- building a mighty nation, in which there must be no taint of despotism or injustice, they have examined caretully all the provis- ions of the Constitution, and as a preceaent which they bope will mever be deparied from, but which becomes necessary by the injustice of the sister States, they have determined that no State shall ever be admitted into the Union when the right to universal suffrage shall not be made permanent and impossible of viola- tion. Fearing, also, that some cunning scheme might be devised by which pegnage such as is already established in some of the North Amer- ican States might be created, they recommend the passage of the following act: [The bill referred to above will be found in the House proceedings.) Secretary McCvut.ocu witt wot Resicy. We are authorized to say that all reports that Secretary McCulloch will shortly tender his resignation are without any foundation what- ever, The relations between the President and Secretary McCulloch, both official and perso- nal, are of the most pleasant character, and the Secretary this morning declared that noth- ing was further from his mind than tendering his resignation, especially at this time when the President is surrounded by troubles. Tux TREATY WITH THE GeeMAN STATES.— This afternoon the President sent to the Senate the treaty recently negotiated by Mr. Bancroft with the German States in regard to the rights of American citizens abroad. On motion of Mr. Sumner, Chairman of the Commitee on Foreign Affairs, the Senate imme- diately went into Executive session in order to take up the treaty. Secrelary Seward was on the floor of the Senate to-day urging that im- mediate action should be had upon the treaty. Aim Lixe Raitroap To New York.—Mr Cook. from the Committee on Roads and Canals, to-day reported the bill to anthorize the building of a military railroad from Wash- ington city to the City of New York, with amt adments, and it was ordered to be printed and recommutted. The amendments name new corperators, and provide that the company shall never consolidate its stock and franchises with those of any parallel or competing road. nor to condemn ‘the property of any railway company except so far as may be necessary for crossing the line of such railroad. ‘Tue Tax Brit.—At two o'clock, Mr. Schenck called up the bill reported by him yesterday from the Ways and Means Committee, to take tax off on all manufactured articles, after Ist day of next April, except on gas, mineral oils, or product of distillation, wines, snuff, tobacco, and cigars, At three o'clock the previous question was called on the bill, and it passed by @ vote of 122 yeas to 2 nays—the letter being Johnson of California, and Hawkins of Ten- nessee. As the bill now stands, the March tax will have to be paid. This bill will undoubtedly pass the Senate.

Referred to Committee on Finance Mr. Howard from the Select Committee on Impeachment, Feported & substitute for the or- der presented by Mr. Anthony, relative to the sami ission of spectators during the impeachment trial. (The substitute provides that during the tr.al of the impeachment of Andrew Jobnson, Prem i- dent of the United States, no person, other than those entitled to the privileges of the floor and clerks of standing commitiers of the Seante, shall be admitted thereto; that one thousand lckets to the galleries shall be issued daily, under the direcuon of the Sergeant-at- Arms that the Diplomatic gallery shall be reser exclusively for the Diplomatic Oorps, and forty tickets to that gallery shall be issued to | Baltimy the members of the foreign legations: four tickets to be issued to each Senator: four to the Chief Justice and the Speaker of the House of Representatives; two to each member of the Houre of Representatives: two to each Asso- ciate Justice of the Supreme Court; two te each judge of the Supreme Court of the Dist two to each judge of the Court of Clume; two tw each Cabinet officer; two to the General commanding the army; one each to the Mayors of Washington and George- | town; one to the Smithsonian Iustitate, one rach to the Commissary General, the Quarter- master General, the Surgeon General, and the Paymaster General; ne to each of the Ad- mirals of the Navy, one to each minister of a cburch in the District of Columbia; six to the President of the United States, and 60 w the |, Teporters of the press and the residue shall be distributed among the members of the Senate m proportion to the representation of their States un the House of Representatives.) Mr. Cole thought that some portion of the galleries should be thrown open to the public. Mr. Willey doubted the propriety of any such arrangement. He did not knew that his { family were any better than the families of any | of his constituents. Mr. Williams did not approve of the ticket system at all. The galleries should be thrown open, and let everybody take their chance. A great many people would be attracted here by this trial, and if they were unable to obtain seats there would be much dissatisfaction. Mr. Howard said the committee had careful- ly considered the matter, and he thought that this provision was the best that could be made. Mr. Fessenden hoped the report of the com- mittee would be adopted. If the galleries were thrown open indiscrunmately, there would be | arush of that class of people who were not agreeable in any sens. The mob would obtain all the seats, and well behaved people would be crowded out. Among those who would be attracted here by this trial, would be a cliss of ple whom it would be hard to restrain Now, it was not proper that the Senate should beliable to be disturbed by the expressions like- ly ‘to arise from such people. He therefore thought it proper that tickets should be issued They had experience the other day of wnat they were liable to, when, en a mere question of order, applause Was indulged in by those in the galleries, Mr. Anthony was informed that the capacity of the galleries was but &K), and therefore Moved to reduce the number of tickets trom 1:60 to 900. If the steps and passages were al- lowed to be occupied, it would be impossible for the officers of the Senate to preserve order. Mr. Thayer ws glad that the Senator from Maine had alluded to the disorderly demon- Strations in the galleries. He wanted every- body to understand tat, whether friends or enemies of Congress, whether friends or ene- mies of the President. that it was not their pro- vince to give expression to their feelings when in the paesence of the Senate. Mr. Grimes thought the means proposed by the committee would be entirely inadequate to the occasion, and that no better system of con- fusion could be adopted—no betier method of | sunoyancedevised. He thought the mob which had been spoken of would be transferred from the Senate guileries to the Senators themselves. He bad already received applications for tickets from 20) or mo.e persons. Mr. Willey said another objection to the ticket scheme was that many persons would get tired out, and leave before half over, and that no one else could come in And occupy their private seais. Mr. Drake would ask of the Chair whether any arrangements had yet been made for the convenience of Senators during the tal, and what they were. The President pro tem. said that he had given directions to the Sergeant-at-Arms to make all proper arrangements for the convenience of Senators, for the members of the House, the wanagers of impeachment, and the President and his counsel, but as to the special arrange- ments made by the Sergeant-at-Arms he had no knowledge.
