Messrs. Morton, Wade, Wilson, and many others in the Senate, believe that the rebels Will overwhelm the authorities and overawe the black voters in every reconstructed State, unless they are given means of defence. In the House there does not appear to be so strong & sentiment im fvyor of this, and the newly in- stailed Southerners are divided in sentiment, Some fearing the political effect and the exas- peration of feeling which would result trom sucha measure. All of which makes it possi- ble that the subject will necessitate a great «eal of debax, Should the bill be passed, it is Likely of course to pfoyoke a veto. GENERAL DYER has written a letter to the Secretary of War demanding a court-martial for the investigation of the charges made against bim by the Select Joint Committee on Ordnance.

Dyer With a view to bis ti} by court-martial, which will be conveued as soon as practicable after the charges shall have been furnished.

This motion was argued several ago by Messrs. Merrick and Bradley for S Carrington and Riddle for prosecution. ‘The defence entered a motion forleave to with- the plea @nd to quash the indictment, which was also overruled.
