FOOTE AT WASHINGTON. Yesterday information was received by the govern- ment that Henry §. Foote, quondam United States Sena- tor, and lately a member of the rebel Senate at Rich- ‘mond, while attempting to escape from reveldom, accom- (panied by his wife, had been arrested by robel cavalry at ‘Occoquan, about fifteen miles from Alexandria. Our @iilltary authorities at Alexandria were directed to send €o Occoquan for Mrs. Foote, who arrived here to-day, and (eves escorted from the Alexandria steamboat landing to ‘Willard’s Hotel by the Secretary of State. ‘The offence of Mr. Foote against the Davis dynasty was fhis last dofiant speech in the rebel Senate, and his attempt €o carry out his purpose, thon avowed, to flee from the (most accursed despotism ever invented. An unfortunate olay at Occoquan to find means to cross the Potomac enabled his pursuers to overtake and capture him. “WHE MISSION OF MESSRS. F. P. BLAIR AND SINGLE- TON TO THE REBEL CAPITAL. The reported return from Richmond of Mr. F. P. Biair, Sr., is premature. His return is not immediately expected. General Singleton reached City Point yesterday, and will probably be in Richmond to-day. It is understood ‘that neither of these gentlemen are clothed with any ‘powers to conclude any negotiations or officially to repre- Pent this government; but it is hoped that their confer- -@nce with leading men on the other side will convince the ‘flatter that their cause is now hopeless, and that their intor- ‘ext will boat be promoted by putting an end to the war, and @aving themselves and their countrymen and country- ‘women of the South from still greater suffering and des- “Mitution, by at once dotermining to accopt the amnesty -pffered, and returning as erring and repentant sinners to ‘their allegiance to the government of the Union. GENERAL BUTLER’S REPORT OF THE WILMINGTON AFFAIR. ‘The publication of the report of General Butler upon ‘tho Wilmington expedition, is understood to have been ade at the request of Lieutenant General Grant. Tho Peport was originally made a week ago, but was lost from tho possession of General Grant for two or three days @ftor ite receipt. General Butler was urgent for its publi- ‘eation, and this permission has been given to avoid the #ppearance or imputation of having suppressed it. As General Butler has been summarily summoned to @ppear . before the Committee on the Conduct of Mie War, he is expected to arrive in this city, instead of Lowell, on Monday next. It is understood that Riis being relieved from command is the result of a determined onslaught upon volunteer officers, mado Dyfthose who are seeking to array the regulars against the volunteers, Genoral Butler being the only volunteer officer remaining in a high position in military command, He in sald to have soveral rods in pickle, the application of-which before the Committee on the Conduct of the War will mako others wince, and throw some light upon military operations which have not hefetofore been pro- perly understood. FINANCIAL MATTERS. ‘Tho bill submitted by the Secretary of the Treasury, ‘and now pending before the Committee of Ways and Means, does not provide for authority to issue obligations of any kind beyond the amount now authorized by iaw; ‘but to issue legal tenders, or compound interest notes, to the amount remaining unissued, of what was authorized by the act of June 30, 1864. This remainder s a fraction ‘over two hundred millionsy The unpaid requisitions upon the Treasury, exclusive of those for army purposes, on the 3lst of December, 1864, was about fifty millions. It is the intention of the dopartment to pay off these requisitions during this month. The amount of ten-fortios not subscribed for is about forty-nine millions, which will be disposed of by the Secretary to the hest advantage. It ts evident that no new or decided financial policy ‘will be presented by Mr. Fessenden, and it is not proba- ble that Congress will take action upon financial affairs ‘antil a now Secretary of the Treasury shall have beon eppolnted. Mr. Fessonden is simply endeavoring to keep the government machine in motion until his retirement from tho department, leaving to his successor the task of Anaugurating a new Qnancial policy. THE TOBAUCO TAX. Tho Committee of Ways and Means were again occn- pied to-day in hearing delegations in reference to the Cobaceo tax. TNE TARDY TRIBUNE AND GENERAL BUTLER’S RR- MOVAL. Mr. Kasson to-day presented in the House a petition, signed by 8, Wilkeson, Eoq., the chief Washington corres- pondent of the New York Zribune, setting forth that he had been prevented by the military censor from communi- tating by telegraph to that paper the fact of General Butler's removal from command, while another paper (the Hi natn), had published the aine information, with somments, such information having been transmitted othorw se than by telograph, and asking for the parsage of a law making the tolegraph aa Cree as the ‘mail. # was reiorred to the Committee on the Juriciaray, What coure that committes will take in not Known, but as Congress bas heretofore refused to inter fore with tho censorship itis hardly probable that they Will do so now, The rame moans of obtaining informa tion are open to the other papers ax tothe Huraun; but Hf othor newspapors had boon as uniformly eareful in regard to the publication of contraband mows as the Hsxary, there would be no necestity for ® censorship, find probably the War Department would tteelf willingly suspend it, THN INORFASE OF BALARIES. ‘Tho discussion in the Senate to-day on the Consular Appropriation bill clearly indicates that no measure will be adopted this eeselon increasing the salaries of clerks fh the dopartments. This subject, since the opening of Congress, has been constantly agitated by memorials and lobbyists; and while none question the inadequacy of the salaries, ff tg claimed that the exigencies of the times Prohibit any avoidable increase of the government ex- Penditures, Similar petitions from the army, signed by many of our most distinguished generals, have also been coming in daily, and there is a general expression of Fegret that the claims of those in the civil and military service should be deemed go inimical to the finan- cial interests of the government. The prospect of the failure to increase these salaries is not only Producing ® most unfortunate state of fecling in the army, little calculated to promote its efficiency, but it is driving from the employment of the government the most valuable, efficient and experienced clerks in all the de- Partmenta, whose places cannot be diled at the present salaries, THE DEBATE ON THE CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT. ‘The protracted discussion of the constitutional amond- mont was closed in the Howe to-day; but, as intimated heretofore, final action has been postponcd until the last of the month, It is now considered almost a certainty that the amendment will pass before the termination of the session, and slavery, so far as Congress can do it, be fashioned “love feast.” It wasa charming fusion of all elements, democrats and republicans vielng with each other in mutual concessions and kind words, It was s Bovel but most encouraging spectacle to see all parties cordially uniting upon a measure of #0 great importance to the whole country. THE AMENDMENTS TO THE ENROLMENT ACT. The House Military Committee to-day considored fur- ther the amendments to the Enrolment act, which will ‘be'perfocted and reported next week. No radical or gen- eral change will be made in the law, but it will be im- proved in some important though minor details. THE COLORADO INDIAN MAFSACKR. ‘There is reason to believe that the Chivington massa- cre in Colorado will lead to a most thorough investigation of the condition and treatment of the Indians along the whole frontier. The debate upon this subject in the Se- nate this afternoon is significant of startling develop- ments, exposing the plots of unprincipled adventurers in the Indian country for the promotion of their own selfish schemes, and collusion on the part of responsible men connected with the overland routes and in the confidence of the governinent, with hostiie Indians, in order to give plausibility to false returns of property lost, and to af- ford exenses for non-fulfiliment of contracts. Itis alleged that the Indians are incited to hostility purposely, and. prompt legislation ts demanded for their better protection ani the prevention of enormous swindles upon the gov- ernment, NAVAL CAPTURES. Information has been received at the Navy Department of the capture of the schooner Flash, off the coast of Mexico, on the 27th of November, by the Princess Royal, Her cargo was an assorted one. Lieutenant Commander Brown, of the United States gunboat Itasca, off Point Cabello, Texas, reports that on the 29th of December he chased and run a schooner ashore of about one hundred tons, and subsequently so disabled ber by shells that she has been dismantled and abandoned as useless, On the 30th ult the Itasca captured the schooner Carrie Wair, while attompting to violate the blockade of the Texas coast, On the morning of the 8th of December the Itasca chased and run ashore the sloop Mary Ann, of Galveston. She could not be hauled off. Her cargo of twenty-one bales of cotton was removed to the Itasca, and the sloop destroyed. THE MASSACHUSHTTS SENATORIAL FLERCTION. The postponement of the Senatorial election by the Massacuisetts Legislature has been the subject of much comment here to-day. The friends of Gen. Wilson assert that the postponement fs intended to aid Governor An- drew to figure for a Cabinet appointment—probably the Treasury portfolio, soon to be resigned by Mr. Fessonden, Other: attribute it to a willingness to afford an opporta- nity to the friends of Gen. Butler to make a movement in favor of his election to the Senate. IAGHTSNIPS REPLACED IN THE LOWER POTOMAC. The Lighthouse Board yesterday caused the lightships tobe replaced on the Lower Potomac. These vessels were removed on the 15th of December, in compliance with an old custom, since which time much damage has resulted to the government from vessels running aground or being compelled to lay over for daylight to enable them to pass the shoals in safety. INAUGURATION, The Lincoln and Johnson Club of this city have initiated Measures for a grand inauguration ball in honor of Presi- dent Lincoln. | APPOINTMENTS CONFIRMED BY THE SENATE. ‘The Senate, in executive session, to-day confirmed the following nominations by the President :— Brigadior General Wm.T.

SPRAKRR COLPAX'S RECEPTION. Speaker Colfax’s first reception of the season, to-night, was largely attended. Genoral Banks was among the more prominent guests, Our Washington Correspondence. Wasmmaron, Jan. 12, 1865, PRACK MOVRMENTE, The atmosphere at the national capital is filled with Peace rumors of all kinds, Many of them are perfectly groundiess, while othets have some substantial fonnda- tion. President Lincoln has manifested during the Inst few days a disposition to facilitate negotiations for peace whenever he can. While ho does not authorize any person to propose definite terma, he is willing to facili. tate the journoy of men to Richmond who havo any data which gives them reason to suppose they can accomplish anything. He has alroady permitted two porsons to visit tho rebel capital, and furnished them the necencary pareos—namoly, F. P. Blair, 8r., and General Singleton, of Iilinois. The latter is one of the ultra peace demo- crate. Neither of these are authorized to propose any terms of settlement, but simply pormitted to go on their own responsibility to ascertain whether the rebel oMcials are inclined to enter into a negotiation. They did not go togethor, but on diffrent days, Rach fs sanguine that his mission will be successful. The Peace dotaoerata at Washington assert that they have in- formation Which fonder the miaon of Mr, Singleton, : doubt, and next few en the om astonish . Lincola ia now one of now really bo it is not im official movements in have boon made of the peo- é j dict a ; ; Sixde z E ise: etl fl Mi i BE H ; i Sa of oub Stauton ura ‘any rate it ia believed that all necessity for further in Georgia will be done away with; Georgia is not fully restored goverament in a short period, that Jeaat it will be placed in a position antagonistic "to Joft Davis’ bogus government, But few days will elapse be- fore something definite will be devel from these three sources. We shall then know whether It is all smoke or not. There is no denying the fact that Greeley, in his allusion to the mission of Blair and others, speaks by the book. He knows what transpired with the peaco commissioners for nd before they left. The re- moval of Butler is believed here to have something to do with these peace movements. BWTIREMENT OF GENERAL RUTLER. ‘The farewell address of Genoral Butler to the Army of the James has created no little commotion here. Sena- tors and members ‘-] Reed House, who Bare CO strong supporters rT heretofore, now publicly re- mark that he should be tried by onal martial for the indecorous used in his addreas to his superior officers. ‘The friends of General Grant are to hold Butler to an account. The hero of New Orleans may soon find that the language with which he Intended to arouse a feeling in his favor will be the that will be used to close forever his public career. ie retirement of Butler to the factories of Lowell unquestionably closes his military career; but it does not-end the controversy in reference to him. There are rich ts in store. The public will soon have an inside view of operations in the past which will open their eyes. The meaning and grumbling, Denoath the surface | Dy sui in- icake tia w eter of > sas will soon burst upon us in reference to the purchase of cotton. In fact it is raging with considerable fury beneath the gurface. The it law regulating the trade in cotton with the jous States wus passed for the purpose of facilitating. this trade, and securing thereby a revenue to the govern- mont. For some cause or otheg the military command- ers in several localities have thrown 60 great obstacles in the way as almost to prohibit the bringing out of cotton, The result 19 that the orders and permits, not only of the Treasury Department, but also of the President, have been nullified and the Treasury deprived of the as- sistance that was anticipated from that quarter, It is understood that Socretary Stanton sustains the military commanders in this opposition, and that the re- cent letter of General Canby on the subject was but a re- flection of the views held at the War Department cy intended to operate upon tho present Congress for a re- peal of the law of lust session, At any rate it was placed in the hands of the conimittee in the House as soon as it was recoived here. Tho President firmly believes in the polley of bringing out all the cotton from the Southern tates that is possible. In the first place, he considers such a course a necessary aid to the finances of the gov- ernment. One fourth of the proceeds of all brought out under the present law goes direct to the government, whilat the balance is equal to #0 much gold or foreign ex- change, and thus directly aids in reducing the price of gold and austaining sho value of greenbacks. In addi- tion to this the greater the supply of cotton the FE i ; less will be the prico of cotton goods, which every family in the country is intorested in. It is therefore considered, and in fact is, an important auxiliary to the finances of'tho government. If succsssful in its opera- tion, the policy renders valuable assistance where assist- ance is the most needed. It strengthens the weakest Point of the governmont, and where it noods strength more than at any other point at prosent. It is evident to all careful observers of events hore thatif the govern- mont fails to suppress the rebellion its failure will be caused by the failure of the financial department. Tho problom of mill success hag reached a point that ren- dors no doubt timate success and complete triumph, provided that the necessary funds are furnished to meet the demands in providing the means to carry out the plans already formed. The active and prompt move- ments in regard to the cotton captured at Savannah is owing to the fact that this conviction has been forced home upon tho author.ties here, the intention being to immediately send it to’ Europe, and thus enable the Treasury Departmont to receive the benofit of gold or foreign exchange to the extent of its full value, ‘The ten or twelve millions of dollars of gold or twenty or twenty-five millions in greenbacks fs, to bo sure, but a small amount in comparison to the dotaands of the gov- ernment; bat it has its effect neverthcless in strengthen- ing the finances of the government. he President and the Financial Department of the government have boon doing all that they can to en- Courage and stimulate the br nging out of cotton, belioy- ing that its result will not only be beneficial in increasing the revenuo of the pg all but also in reducing the pee of gold; but that it likewise weakous the rebellion, "idea being that nine tenths of the planters who suc- ceod im turning their cotton into funds will leave the South and thus withdraw their support from tte tumbling and tottering government. Instructions are therefore given to agents of the Treasury Department to sev that all cotton that is possible ts got out. Permits are freely given under the law of Congress, and regula. tions drawn up in obedience to that law. But it seems that all this is of no avail, except in a few cases. A small amount of cotton is brought out, and but a small amount of what could or should be. ‘TOR PRESIDENT GETTING MY BACK UP. The military seems to stand in the way. In faot, it may be said that Secretary Stanton and the military com- manders in some of tho principal localities have arrayed themselves against the President and Secretary of the Treasury on this _ point. The President has borne ‘this with great patience until within a fow days past. The opposition to his plans and policy ‘rom that source only prevents the bring- ing forward of cotton, but it has also started opposition to the Inw in Congress, and threatens its repeal. It is not stranj therefore, that Mr. Lincoln has become aroused, fe has written letters to General Canby and other commanders who have been throwing obstacles in the way of this law, which very plainly show that he ia cs earnest, and does not intend to stand fooling any jonger. One of the military commanders in the Mississippi a will soon wake up with astonishment at the re- sult of his own instructions in reference to cotton, Th President has written a letter which he can interpret but one way. He first calls the attention of this coim- mander to what purports to be instructions wiitten by him, and asks if it is really possible that he did write the document. Then Mr. Lincoln continues by directly charging him with obstructing the exceution o: the laws of the country, and dofeating the policy of the govern- mont. Aiter giving the miiltary officer some hard bits on this point, Mr, Lincoin directly informs tim that he has outste; his bounds, declaring that if the reguin- tions under this law interfered with totiitary operations in his locality it was his duty to report the facts w it intorfered to the department here, instead ot course that he had purased. ‘These lotters will bring the whole question to @ focus very soon. The moment that this correspondence is out, which will be very soon, the struggle will The several members of the Cabinet, as woil as mombers of both houses of Congress, will have to take sides either with the President and the Secretary of the Treasury, Stanton and those rilitary coni- manders who have already planted themselves in opposi- tion to the law and its regulations. There will be no neutral ground. The reeult of the contest will bo de- cided by what is done with the law of last seasion regu- lating the cotton trade. Those who decide with the Military official will favor it# repeal; the other will op- pose the-repeal, and favor perfecting the law by amend- ments to make it more practical iv its operations, zs THIRTY-EIGHTH CONGRESS. BECOND SESSION, Wasinsoron, Jan. 13, 1865, ‘Tue SOLDIERS CAPTURED IN THR STRMCIT RAID, Mr, Wittey, (rep.) of W. Va., presented the petition of citizons of Ilinols in behalf of the soldiers captured in the Streight raid into Georgia, setting forth that all ef- forts to secure their reléase had been unavailing; that they were suffering in Southern dungeons, and could not get frosh air, because unable to bear the ball and chain, and praying that something be done to relieve them from the slow but cortain death which awaits them.

Mr. Sou rep.) of Mare,, presented the petition of a citizen of usetts who had lost a government bond, and asking that ft be restored to him. Mr. Simxman, (rep.) of Ohio, said that the Secretary of the Treasury had indicated his intention to make good the loss of bonds after th ofa year ors; but if Treasury notes were lost they could not be returned without fur ther logisiation, and that such a petition as that presented by Mr. Sumner should go to the Committee on Claims. ‘The petition was thereupon roferred to the Committee on Cia.ns. ‘THE NUMMER OF TROOPS FURNISHED UNDEU THR CALL OF JULT Last. Mr, Rroprx, (opp.) of Del., offered a resolution inetruct- ing the Becretary of War to report to tho Senate the num- ber of men furnished by the loyal Stater, under the call of the President in July last for five handred thousand men. Mr. Rivore raid:—The information called for is very presen Agee for by pee hs er in all the ya more partioularly by 1 unas hich Lave reoppend te ovary Gait eas oa the nH wi ave tm in thel Pronte, By the proclamation of the Presiden! i rakde on he 19th of Yast, it 9] that but two hun- dred and forty thousand of five hundred thousend called for were leaving a erring | ben dred and sixty the consequence of t! of throe hun thousand been ordered by the Presi- dent, By the census of 1860, the States mentioned in my resolution contained in numbers twenty-three millions of people, including District of Columbia. ‘This number is, doubtless, greater ; bus T will assume it to be the same.

THE CONSULAR APPROPRIATION BILL PASGED. On motion of Mr. Sumamtax, (rep,) of Obio, the Consular priation bill was taken up. . Haus, (rep.) of N. H., moved.to amend the bill by increasing the compensation of the Consul at Halifax from two to three thousand dollars per annum. Ir. SHERMAN was opposed to increase unless it could be shown that it was actually necessary. Mr. CHANDLER, (rep.) of Mich., presented @ letter from the Secretary of State recommending the increase. Mr. SuaNen, (rep.) of Blass, said he was opposed to any increase of anywhere, tauch less to a general increase. Still he was willing to look upon individual cases as they arise and decide upon them. He thought that the Consul at Halifax ought Lo be better paid than he is, aud he shouid yove for the proposition to increase his Mr. SueerMAw said that if the consul at Halifax was dis- satisfied, he would agree to find fifty nen from his own Blate to take hia place, ae ‘ould they discharge the duties of the Mr, SHRMAN—They would, Mr. SumvER—I doubt it. Mr. Caanpizr advocated the amendment ‘The yeas and nays were then called upon the amend- ment, which was lost by a vote of 17 to 87. Mr. Want, (rep.) of Ohio, moved to amend by Inserting hoford the word “Mexico,” the words “the republic of.” Ho said there were two governments in Mexico, and we could recognize none but the “republic.” We bad nothing to do jwith the “empire.” The amendment of Mr. Wade was ado; ‘The Consular Appropriation bill was then passed. ‘THE ALLRGMD MASSACRE OV INDIANS IX COLORADO. Mr. Han.ay, (rep.) of Lowa, called up the resoltion in relation to the otlicors and soidiers af Colonel Chiving- ‘ton’s command, suspending their pay and emoluments until an investigation of their conduct towards certain In- dian tribes in Colorado takes place. Mr. Pomrxor, (rep.) of Kansas, hoped that tho Com- mitteo on Indian A@uira had investi this subject. Ho did not like to give a decision until he had heard both sides, and be did not lke to hold subordinates re- sponsible for obeying orders, He was opposed to, hasty action. If Colonel Chivington had done wrong he ought to be punished; but private soldiers ought not to be held reaponsible for the orders of thelr superiora, fr. Hanian said that the resolution only proposed a suspension of pay until the facts wore investizated. The soldiers who took part in this transaction were hundred days men. He believed they were organized with a dis: tinct understanding that they were to engage in this raid. They returned to camp loaded with plunder, con- sisting of pontes, buffalo robes and Mexi-an dollars, Mr. Niatity, (opp.) of Oregon, was opposed to immo- diate action, ‘The men were simply obeying orders. ‘There was a great deal of misplaced sympathy extended to the Indians. He had seen none of the generous and elevated sentiments in these peoplo of which he had read so much, but had found them treacherous, titeving and murderous, and ho believed it would be well for the country if ‘they were all exterminated. Ile had tried to civilize the Indians by translating Christ's Sermon on the Mount for them; but he nover could impress Christian doctrines upon them, although he had civilized them to some extent with powder and bail. Mr. Nesmith quoted several instances of Indian barbarity, and argued that every attempt to treat them with kindness had been un- successful. Mr. Coxness, (rep.) of Cal., was in favor of the resolu- tion and spoke at longth upon its merits, Mr. Ricaaxpsox, (opp.) of Ill., belioved that the whole fault was with the Governor of Colorado, who acted no doubt upon the bidding of the administration. He was opposed to the resolution bocauso it hold private soldiers amenable for the faults of their commanding ofticers. He believed the Indians to be the most treacherous and Prriidious of people, but he did not think the government ad a right to pursue such a mode of warfare as Colonel a te ooUrTia, a ) of Wis., denied that » privat Ir. .) of Wis., deni a private soldier was ound to eal women and children if com- manded to do so by superior officers. No court martial would convict a soldier for refusing to obey such orders. ‘He was in favor of the resolution. Mr. Pomsagor moved to strike out co much of the reso- lution as relates to the suspension of pay, and make it an order for investigation. Mr. Wison, (rop.) of Mass., moved that the resolution be so amended aa to apply to’ the officers only, as it would be unfair to make it apply to the privates, because the laws of the army were very strict, and compelled privates to obey orders, Mr. Pomeroy accepted Mr. Wilson’s amendment in place of the one proposed by him. Mr. Pows1t, (opp.) of Ky., was opposed to the reaolu- tion, borause ho did not believe in punishing. mon with- out a fair trial. If the facts alleged against Col. Chiving- ton were true he ought to be tried by court martial und Shot to death. Mr. Susxen thought exceptional crimes deserved ex- ceptional Danjshment, and this was an exceptional crime. Tt was an atroctous erlme, which the Senate ought to be swift to punish. ‘The amendment of Mr. Pomeroy was not adopted. ‘The original resolution of Mr. Harlan was thon passed. EXECUTIVE SFRTON, On motion of Mr, Hespricxs, (opp.) of Ind., the Senate then proceeded to the consideration of exceutive busi- 1 ness, and soon urned until Monday.

Your petitioner further represents that this suppression of the nows of the removal of General Butler oxtended to and incluted. the telegrams announcing the same, and to all the news- papers in the Northern aud Western States, by their rep- Tesentatives resident in Washington, and that while this censorship and suppression aro in’ force in Washtngton. the agent of ene of the New York newspapers (the New wn] at the headquarters of the Army of the had ‘ree let and Neense accorded to him to send aper full accounts of said yomoval of General Butler, and extended comments theredn, which li improves, and thereby secured for and gave to his paper & monopoly of sald news over all the papers of the United States, the unjust interference with business and the violation of equity.

THE CONPTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT. Mr. Asnuny, (rep.) of Obio, moved, and it was agreed, that after to-day the further consideration of the anti- slavery constitutional amendment be poxtpoued for two weeks from Tuesday next Mr. Rousse, (opp.) of Mo., said at the Last sesston he voted acainst the proposed ‘amendment; but when the question shall again be taken he intended to record his name in the affirmative, ie had clanged his views with reference to the expediency of the measure, and was sat- istied with the reasons which had induced him to reach such a conclusion. He entertained the same opinions of the rebellion now which he always had, and that there was not a shadow of pretext for the injamous and disas- trous conduct on the part of the South. Nevertheless, he believed that there had not been exhibited a suMfclont willingness to extend conciliation to the masses, who have been misled and betrayed by their leaders. ‘If he could preserye the constitution and Union by preserving the prosent status of ery he would do it. He would go further, and save them, even if it woro nocesrary to extend slavery, He would, in the lungnage of the President, either par tially or altogether destroy slavery to accoiaplich his purpose; and it was simply because be believed the amendment, if adopted, would serve that patriotic end, that ho should vote for it. He argued that Congress has the power to propore the amendmont to the constitution, and yielded to the public sentiment and action of Mis: sour in abolishing slavery. We never can havea peace until we in some way Uispose of that institution. He evtpressed the ope that in leas than two years Ken tucky, (00, Will be a free tate, and will abolish slavery without compensation. Mr. Rollins was applauded at the conclusion of his remarks, which extendod over two hours. Mr. Garren», (rop.) of Oliio, alluded to the progrers of cmane'pation. Slavery wae first driven from the Ter ritories, aud then ite kingdom of the States was shaken to its foundation, and one by one its corner stones were being removed.’ His colleague (Mr. Pendleton) bad, however, found a new restin; plact for slavery, namely— where the great statue of Iberty was enshrined; bat no pot was 80 sacred that slavery could not be pursued to the aitarand there plain. The argument of his col- Joague was good, If it were true that the Stater were sovereign and independent. ‘This he controverted; aud If over they were eo noteo now, Coming into the Union, the obligation once taken fendered them an indivisible nation.

Last evening the large room of the Cooper Institute ‘was weil filled by an andignce joomposed of white and colored ladies and gentlemen, to listen to an address by Frederick Douglass, the well known negro orator. The charge of adinission was fifty cents, the proceeds to be devoted to the aid of the Colored Orphan Asylum. ‘The lecturer, on being introduced, was received with loud applause, and proceeded to eulogize the race to which he" belonged; and im the course of his remarks said some sarcestio andawitty things. He alluded to the recent action of the people of Maryland and Mis- souri in making those States free, and said he was there to ask of the American people, aa an act of justice, mag- aanimity and wise statesmanrhip, for the enfranchise- ment of the colored people of the South. About tho best re! which he made was, that the slaves of the South ad been the Lazaruses of this country, lying at the rich slaveholder's gates. Both had been in a dying condition; Dut the poor man was seen to be somewhere very near Abraham's bosom, and the rich man was now singing out “Father Abraham, send Lazarus.’’ Mr. Linooln said he wanted three hundred thousand, while Da’ said he meant to arm as many as he could make effective. Into which ever ecalo tle black man went there went i ‘The colored man who fought under the Ameri- (and Fort Wagner and Port Hudson showed that gro could fight) should be invested with absolute citizenship, and was entitled to the elective fra ‘The negro was heretofore looked upon as a religious a mal, but there was a good deal of human nature him, Some people thought that after the war the colored race would leave the country; bui he (the speaker) said they were here for no euch inissionary purpose: for they meant to become part aud paivel of the American people. | Certaim cthnologists were felicitating themselves | upon the idea ‘that the negro, like the Indian, | would die out, ‘That was an error; for the noxro, instead | of slrinking from civilization, was fond of dressing like | white people, in a fashionable coat; ed to follow the soldier, and to do other equally ent things. In urging the right of the negro to vote, he said that it was a | necessary condition for the reorganization of society at the South, and expreseed the opinion if they were permitted'to yote, the professional politician, who now eagerly sought for the Irishman's vote a¥ soon as ho landed, would hold loving conferences with the negroes, He dwelt in a humorous strain upon th rejudices en- tertained by the whites against the blacks, and men tioned the fact that & Brazilian glave, when liberated, was at liberty to {ill any position ia society for which his talents fitted him. Mx-Governor Kent, of Maine, the Amorican Minister to Brazil in 1840, told him (the speaker) that that was 40. When he (Douglass) was in Malne, a few years since, tho hotel keeper was at a loss where to put him, when Governor Kent came to the rescue and said, “Place Mr. Douglass beside myacif and wife.” Tho speaker answered the objection made against giving the negro the right of suffrage because they were inferior. He admitted that they were inforior, practically, but said that five centuries ago the Anglo-Saxon was un- der the lash. The Saxoa was up now, while the negro was down; but they would bo up some of these days. (Great applause.) When the American people wanted to slice off Moxico the New York Henan found that the old Castilian blood had deterioated—had become so thin that it would scarcely run down bill, and that the Moxicans were incapable of self-government. He con- troveried the idea advanced by some abolitionists that the nogro should be educated before the government was recoustructed, All he asked from the governinont for the negro was impartial justice. (Applavee.) If there wero negroes that could not do for themeelver, let them go. He denounced General Banks, who, he said, bad comm tted an outrage upon all the hts of the negro, and practicaliy reduced to slavery the very men the brociansa ion of smal tion set free, Be asked atthe government shozld gtop doing for the negro, nud let hin do for himself.

Hornumx Case or Scrrooation ann Deatu.—Yestorday noon four workmen in the employ of Menara. Dolan & Faron, boiler makers, Hunter's Point, were engaged in repairing a still at the tar factory near by, and, boing ignorant of its condition, they entered it through an aperture known as the “man-hole,”’ a place just large enough to ndmit the body of an ordinary sized man. The still, it appears, was filled with gas and the valve closed. The fourth man who entered had great difficulty in forcing his body through, being « large man, and when ho did succeed in entering those who bad preceded him wero unable to make thefr way out—partly on acconnt of the stupefaction caused by the gas and partly by the place of egress being closed ‘by their companion's body, Other workmen on the promises, suspecting there wi danger in thus entering the still, went to see how th men were doing, when it was discovered that the dens! of the gas was so grent that it was unsafe toenter. The valve was finally opened and the gas ailowed to escape, when it was found that the four unfortunate men were spoechic#s, and apparently dead, being quite black in the face.
