The Previous Question Seconded and the Vote Postponed Until To-Day. ‘Meport of the Seeretary of the Treasury in Relation te Captured and Aban- doned Property in the South. ‘Wasmixcrom, Jan. 20, 1 11:80.0'Clock P. is. Debate on the Reconstruction Bill in the House, ‘The discussion on the Reconstruction bill was not Drought to a vote to-day as was intended. Mr. Bing- ham agreed to an extension of the time for Gebate, which gave rise to several additions! speeches. Mr. Butler, who desired to introduce am amendment, although favoring the bill, took an opportunity to give Mr. Bingham a hit by stating that after four failuresof the committee be thought they should be a little modest about amendments, Mr. Bingham closed the debate ina forcible speech in its way, He -charactericed the judiciary arm of the government as next to motbing; that it had Bo power to act or to legislate. He was opposed to the right of the judiciary to sntervene in ‘matters of legislation of # national character—literatly to decide away tho life of the nation. When Mr. Bingham concluded there was a general rush of radicals and a profuse and unparliamentary manifestation of con- gratulation and band shaking. A move was made to come to a vote, but a disposition to filibuster being displayed, a motion to adjourn cut short the proceedings. The passage of the bill, there- fore, comes up after the morning hour to-morrow. It 4s thought by the radicals that the meesure will bo car- ried by a strict party vote, though this is doubtful, as a mamber of republicans show signs of a shaky state of mind on the subject, Efforts Making to Induce Grant to Express His Political Opinions. It is said that @ number of General Grant’s friends, in ©e-operation with a number of radicals of the Obio Legislature, are making an effort to bring the General to some definite expression of opinion in order to further Ibis chances for tho Presidency. The radicals, howover, Row seem to feel some doubts respecting Grant, particu- Jerly in view of the rocent Stanton imbroglio, They eonsider his prospects materially affected by this trouble, Delegations of Southern Loyalists Waiting Upon Secretary Stanton—Freedmen’s Bu- reau Officers. ‘Mr. Stanton was scarcely one hour restored to his posi- tion iu the War Department before delegations of South- ern loyalists from different portions of the unrcconstruct- @4 region preseuted themselves in force to prevail upon ‘the Secretary to retain the army officers and civil agents of the Freedmen’s Bureau who wero ordered to be dis- cbarged by Gencral Grant. Among these delegations ‘was one from Tennessee, which represented that focial and political affairs in that State were ‘yet in #0 disturbed @ condition from the bold and aggres- sive conduct of the rebels that it would be very impoll- tac to weaken the authority of the Freedmen’s Bureau. ‘Tt be said now that Sir, Stanton has expressed bis inten- ‘tion of rescinding the order issued by Grant in so far as 44 applies to Tennessee, and it is altogether probable that ‘the same action will be taken in regard to others of the Border States. An order bas recently been issued announcing that by Girection of the Secretary of War so much of General Orders, No, 182, of August 17, 1865, as authorized com- manding, officers of the army serving in the field to purchase subsjstence stores from the Subsistence De- partment on credit, for their own use, bas been re- ecinded, Proposed Equitable Distribution of Depart- ment Clerkships. The lack of any uniform system of appointments in the executive departments, especially with reference to ‘the ratio of population in the several States and Terri- tories, has so far attracted the attention of Congress that General John A, Logan has a bill prepared looking to a moro equitable distribution of clerkships, which he Proposes to: introduce to-morrow, if an opportunity offers, By a statement propared in the Appointment Bureau of the number of clerks, employés, &c., from the different States, Territories and tho District of Columbia, in the Navy, Treasury, Interior, Post OfGce and Quartermaster General’s Departments, the following exhibit is presented :—Maine, 417; Massachusetts, 164; Vermont, 57; New Hamp- shire, 86; Rhode Island, 15; Connecticut, 79; New ‘York, 487; Delaware, 14; New Jersey, 57; Maryland, 138; Virginia, 75; West Virginia, 1; Pennsylvania, 326; Obio, 214; Indiana, 80; Illinois, 116; Michigan, ‘Wisconsin, 72; Minnesota, 30; Iowa, 64; Kansas, 18; Nebraska, 3; Nevada, 4; California, 32; Oregon, Missourt, 38; Tennessee, 24; Kentucky, 25; Louisiana, 14; Texas, 4; Florida, 6; Alabama, 6; District of Colum- bia, 374; Idaho, 1; Colorado, 3; North Carolina, 2; South Carolina, 1; Mississipp!, 2; Arkansas, 4; Utab, 1, and Georgia, 4—making @ total of 2,832. Of this number it is stated that 367 are soldiers. ‘There is also great dissatisfaction in the apportionment of the differant grades of clerkships, it being alieged that favoritism has more to do with promotions than real merit, This who! ster will receive @ thorough ventilation; and if the contemplated establishment of a civil bureaa be mot carried into effect, some othor means will be devised in order to secure the highest ability and moral worth im the subordiuate positions ‘under the government. Treasury Report Relative to Captured and Abandoved Property in the South. The Secretary of the Treasury to-day sent a communi. cation to the Senate, im reply to a resolution of that body, in reiation to the action of the department with Feference to captured and abandoned property, The Secretary says:— Releases of miscellaneous property other than cotton have been small in amount Household furnitw fatally relics, books, &c., gonoraily tal i orders for tomporary use, and subsequ to Treasury agents, were ordered to be restored to the inal owners by the fecretary’s circular fetter of September 6, 1865, whenever conditions Tn one case (that of ture having been ‘reasury agent, the amounting to $1,162, were restored in ture.

The Soldiors and Sailors’ Union League held a well attended meeting this evening, at which Senator Wilson made ® speech, im which he said he desired to show what and who are responsible: for all the trials and sufferings of the past seven years, ‘The Senator gave first quite an eloquent summary of the rebellion and its results, and then asked who was responsible for the three hundred thousand graves of Union soldiers, for the enormous debt piled upon the nation’s back, and for the taxation that weighed down the industry of the poor. Slavery, he held, was responsible for all the blood that was shed, for all the treasure sacrificed and for all the misery that may now afflict the country. He detailed the various stages of slaveholding aggression and the various stages by which the emancipation and the political equality of the black men were secured, To every step the democratic Party opposed itself, and still continued steadfast in its antagonism. For the last ten years everything great and good m the legislation of the nation was suggested and carried through by the republican party, and long hence in the future the names of .the men who in tho halls of Congress battled for the rights of humanity and freedom will be remembered when the names of those Gemocrats who controlled the government of the coun- try for nearly half a century will be despised and for- gotten, Whenthe republican party had done all to save the country the man they elected Vice President be- trayed his trust and Went bodily over to the rebels, At might be asked why should the republican party be so lenient with the man who for the last three years had done all in his power to obstruct and neutralize the wishes of the people; but he believed that Andrew Johnson will be overruled for the good of the country, and the republican party will settle the basis of free- dom and equality on a better footing than they might have hoped at the moment of their triumph in 1865. He further believed that the loyal negroes will recon- struct the ten Southern States in less than mx months, and that in the grand struggle of this year he was sanguine they would come out of it with a greater triumph than im the contest of 1860, He re- marked that the elections of thie year would be more important than those in the Inst Presidential campaign. He would immolate himself to secure the triumph of the great principles for which the republican party struggled, and when universal equality is estab- lished he was indifferent as to who managed the affairs of the country. Im regard to the national debt, he con- sidered this generation had done enough—it was sufficient for it to pay the interest and let posterity pay the principal, Im conclusion, he was of opinion that in the Presidential contest the republican party would carry thirty States of the Union. He was willing to surrender Kentucky, Maryland and Delaware, but he was sure of seven of the Southern States, with a good chance in the remaining three. The Senate would be for a jong time radical, and the House of Repre- senatives would, he hoped, for as long a Period, boast a majority of one hundred, Supplementary Report of Commissioner Wells. ‘Special Commissioner of the Revenue Wells has added supplementary statistica to his report recently laid be- z & s ' fore Congress, in which he reviews the revenue systems of Great Britain, France and North Germany, by way of contrast to our own. He shows that, according to ‘ancient constitutional doctrine and practice, no money can bo voted by the British Parliament for apy purpose whatever, except at the demand and pon the responsibility of ministers of the Crown. Itappears that for a period of nine years the actual payments out of the exchequer has in consequence not been more or less than about one and one-fourth per centum. Another table shows that during the fiscal year ending with June last the aggregate sales by the classes named in the several States and Territories were in round numbers as follows:— Wholesale dealers nearly. ‘Whotevale liquor deaiers Retail liquor dealer Sales of merchandise by auctioneers... .. 240,000,000 Sales of merchandise by commercial DIOKCT.....ccseveecsssecsceeseesees 830,000,000 ‘Total, nearly.. sseereseeeeses $12,000,000,000 The Sec Trial of Surratt.

Mr. ScorreL, (rep.) of Pa, addressed the House in defence and advocacy of the bill, and argued, by refer- ence to the action of the Executive in attempting to reconstruct the Southern St the measure under discussion was perfectly justified, Ho showed that at present there were one hundred and sixteen thousand ‘white voters regiaterod in Ciel Rules} under the Jonnson government there had a only forty-two thousand votes cast, proandcon, Referring to Mr, Brooks’ declaration the other day, that all this reconstruction Jegistation would be repealed when the democracy came yato power, he asked where, if the democracy would re-establish slavery and place the insolvent slave power again at the head of the FaRseaanetin, ‘ho (Mr. Brooks) would find his subjects? He had scen that gontlomau’s friends gather around him at the close of his speech and congratulate him. He Could imagine that they said, “They will have no negro schools in America when thou art king, shall they?’ (Laughter.) Mr, PRurs rewarked that on his side of the House they said noth: about negroes; they left that to the other side of the House, Mr, Scortetp said he eouJd imagine the gentleman from New York (Mr. Brooks) arm.ng himself with lasso aod handcuffs and going up to Mackerelville to engage a brigade to assist him im the execution of the Fugitive Slave law, (Laughter.) Ho was inclined to think that that gentleman had undortaken to do more than he could perform, and would wish that he had left the legislation as it stood. ir. Kooxtz, (rep.) of Pa., next addressed the House in support of the bill. Referring to the Fee. of uncon- stitutionality made by the opponents of the bill, he said that when the great unconstitutional work of the country was undertaken (meaning the rebellion), he had nover once heard from a democratic State convention or a democratic state committee a single au ciation showing honest and hearty indigo: that great unconstitutional work. If tu nounced it with half the zeal and half the energy with which they had denounced measures necessary to pat down the rebellion, and necessary to leep it down, the war would have ended a year sooner than it did anda thousand millions of national Dave been saved the country. Mr. Cary, (rep.) of Ohio, sai@ that be should Ifke his colleague (Mr, Bingham) in his cl argu- ment to answer these four questions:—First—If General Grant shall neglect or refuse to execute the provisions of this law, or if in its execution he shall act in an oppressive and cruel manner, to what tribunal will be be amenable for his non- feasance or malfeasance? Second—As by the terms of ‘the bill the President cannot interfere, can the General be tried by court martial; and if by whose orders, and who shail constitute the court? Third—Not being a civil officer, can he be impeached; and if so, by whom, and before’ what tribupal? Fourth—If he cannot be arraigned by any earthly tribunal, is he not made an absolute despot? Mr. Puwirs, dem.) of Md., addressed the House in opposition to the bill, arguing that the bill sts0if and the Whos system of legislation of which it is @ part are Poraicious, anti-republican, anti-democratic and revo- jutionary. ‘The time fixed by Mr. Bingham (twenty minutes past three o'clock) having arrived, Mr. BINGHAM look tho floor, withdrew the imotion to recommit, moved two verbal amendments and then moved the previous ques- tion, refusing to withdraw it go ag to allow Mr. Butlor to oifer bis ameadment giving the appointment of civil officers to the State Coustijutional Conventions. Mr, LOGAN suggested to Mr, Bingham to amend the second section by adding after the word ‘General’? the words “or other military oficer who shall or may be pat in command of the army.” Mr, Bixaiam dectined to adopt the suggestion. Mr, logan remarked that if the President should ro- move General Grant the law would have no moaning. att BinvauaM gaid that Congress would goon supply it. Mr. Farxswortn, (rep.) of Ill, remarked that the President could not remove General Grant without the concurrence of the Senate. The previous question was then seconded and tho juestion ordered. Sixcuam, having an hour in which to close the debate, yielded haif of it to Mr, who sald that asa friend of tl deavored to porfect it, or at | House an amendment which he aught was necessary to perfect it, He trusted be might say without a4 a committee which bad tried four times to jure right, and had on its own confession ur times, might have been a littie modest In re- ting amendments, (Laughter,) He thought that at feast the House might have been perinitted, without the choke of the previous question, to have voted on su ments as were pro; |. He aid that the committee na Principle; but he. did jot mean to say failed in any proposition of mean to pe og it had failed im had ne difficulty with the great aality of the measure, ‘here were at least three constitutional ieions under which tt might well be maintained. If he had had any @ucn difficulty the timo for tts exbibition bad since ; because the President had approved in Provision tacked on toan tuat the General of the army shall aot be re- moved, suspended, relieved from command or sent to duty elsewhore, except at his own request, without the Fo feted approval of the Senate, It was quite compe. at, suerefore, for Congress to put all the matior of as\ruction inte the bands the General of the army, and ho ‘hat, #0 far as super. vision over it went, it would be so placed. But the dotafis of the bill, im bis opinion, meodeu re- visiop, and therefore he had intended to bring before the House an amendment pe ing the officers of we civil govermmenia in those States to be elected and ap- proved by the Constitutioual Conventions tne: ‘tor b+ 4 should have formed a coasiitution and suomitiod it to the people for ratiication, He understood, however, that the objection to that on the part of the Reconstruc. tion Committee was that the conventions might confer offices on black men, and thus injure tho party before the country. Mr, Pain, (rep.) of Wie., one of the members of tho commit\Ho, said that he had been prevent at every meot- tug of the commiviee and had never heard that argu. mont, Burtae exproseed regret that he had been misin- formed, He pad inquired what the trouble about bis propopition was, and bad been told shat It was necessary the words of the great men who formed and Ute in forming it, proved themselves second to no men ever lived upom the earth, orto whom were rusted the destinies of a great people, The Hamilton was—and very liniels of your doors— coustitutional ou im ‘cary gare, out iho law Cor gave ou jaw for the governmont of individual ‘and collective mon, ‘Pro- serve thy life.’ It is the duty of the nation, entrusted ‘ag it ig with the dest wad noblest trust thas ever was committed to a political society, to preserve lis own life, ‘That life was assailed for tour long yeurs by armed re- Volt and treasou, {hree years have elapsed since the surrender of the armies of the rebeliion, ie cloud of battles lifted from the stricken fields of the Potomac to the banks of the Rio Grande the fact was disclosed that State institutions, constitutional ctate gov- ernpments, had perished in that conflict, The people of the United states asked mo indemopity for the past; they asked only security for the future, In the propositions of restoration as they were pre- sented in tho year 1865, it was only asked of these late insurgents in arms that an irrepealable covenant should be placed in the constitution of the United States, by their conseat and by our consent, which would make alike rebellion forever impossible, bich would realize by the silent majesty and voice of law the grand purpose for which tue constitution itself was ordained—namoly, the establisbmen: of justice ‘and the security of liberty, That ts what was asked. ‘The people of the North accepted it.

I answer my colloague further that, by the fitch section of the bill, if the General of the Army ve guilty of any violation of this law he ia liable, by its very terms, to be arraigned before the civil tribunals of the United States on an in- @ictment, aud beld to answer for his high misdemeanor, and on conviction is fiabie to take his place in the peni- tentiary and pay a forfeit not exceeding $5,000. I trust that my colleague is satisied with the severity of the malty, Another objection raised by these gentlemen that we invade the Evie and powers of the judi- lary.

Wasuincros, D. C., Jan. 20, 1868, Mr. G. W. Heap, the United States Consul at Tunis, writes to Secretary Seward, under date of December 20, as follows ;— Sm—I regret to report that since my lest the sufferings: of this population from famine and tue inclomency of the weather have frightfully increased. A few days since ope hundred and nine persons died of starvation in the streets of the city, and I was informed by a gentlemen that while on his way from the Goletia to Tunis he found the bodies offthree Arabs on the road. The great- ‘est mortality in the city from bunger and cold was on the 10th inat., when, I am informed, it reached one hun- dred aud forty-two, The news from the in- terior is equally distressing. It is impossibio to obtain even an’ approximate estimate of the number who perish daily from starvation in alt arts of the regency, but it is known to be very great, Eoppiiee ‘of grain bave reached here, but thousands have not the means of purchasing it, Notwithstanding the rains, which promise to. give abundant crops, large tracts of land remain uotilied for the want of cattle or seed graiu, The price of wheat is $3 per bushel, and of barley $1 60, Arab women oifer their children to Chris- tans for a tew coppers to purchase bre: ‘This stricken pcople bear their misery with patience and resignation. I hear of no disorder of disturbance, Men, women aud children lie literally starving afew yards from the provision stalls; gazing with wistful eyes ‘On the coveted food. they commit no act of violence or scarcely of pilfering. Among the Christians, who number upwards of ten thousand in the city and its environs, there is much poverty and suffering, but they receiye some relief, The Jewish population is about twenty thousand. The richer members of this persuasion ba’ lone more for the relief of their poor than all the other inbabitants combined bi do! theirs. The Mahometans alone view the their brethren with stoical apathy or indifference, Jook upon it asa dispensation of Providence which would be useless, pert sinfal, to mitigae Th ly apology for theit avarice. A feeble effort was made recently to give food and shelter poor, but’ the relief so grudgingly jas totally inadequate, A Moorish hospital, richly endowed, receives the corpses picked up eacia prepare them for burial, but admission to the living, Children scarcely able food, their parents havin: ‘are sheltered and fed by charitable Christians, e scones daily witnessed in tho* streets are distressing in the extreme.
