ae WASHINGTON. "Passage of the Northern Pa- cific Railroad Bill, The Cuban Cause Locking Up-—-General Banks’ Report. The River and Harbor Ap- ,propriation Bill. ; , Benator Conkling’s Amendment to ths Naturalization Laws. A. CONGRESSMAN ON HIS MUSCLE. Wasaincton, May 26, 1870, Baforts for tho Revival ef American Com- ‘lenal Spirit of the West. Lynch’s bill for the revival of American commerce came up again in the House to-day, and, in order to test” whether the opposition,“ which comes matoly from the West, would fayor any measure jooking wo ‘Me relief of the shipping interests, Mr. Lynch moved totake up the subsiitute offered yesterday and to consider the old bili, With all its amendments, as laid upon the table, As was expected, the Western men, who seem to have an idea ‘that no other interest is to be taken care of but that of the farmer, were as violent in their opposition as Over, notwithstanding the fact that the new propo- @ition contains many concesstous to the demands of ‘the agricultural Representatives. Farnworth, who ‘@pposed the old measure, endeavored to explain why hhe would support the new one, but he was met by Logan aud others with the cry of “You are ou both iaes.” In order to put the matter toa test Lynch moved the previous question on the substitute, and @ lively dcbate followed, in which personal com- BDiiments of the leit-handed order were thrown $ around promiscnously, and the hie ‘was given and returned with interest several® times. Amore sectional spirit was not manifested doring the reign of the peculiar institution than was shown {pon the foor of the House to-day by some of the ‘Western men, like Ingersoll and Logan, of IWino1s; Allison, of Iowa, and Shanks, of Indiana, They #®eemed to ignore all else jn the country except their Own distriets and the farmér interest. “What do f care,” said Shanks, “whether the English or Amert- ean fag fies at the masthead of (vessels on the ecean? My constituents have no interest in 1t.”” ‘This was evidently the feeling gthat governed the @pposition to the bill. Mr. Lynch finally got the Moor and delivered a very sharp, clear, concise argo- ‘Ment tn favor of the bill, taking the groun! thatit ‘Was a national, not asectional measure, and that not alone New England, New York or any of the sea- Board States and cities would ba benefited by tt, the whole country. He charged upon the opponen s of the bill that they were the cofscious or un- conscious agents of the Clyde sliipbuilders, tue Lairdsythe Dennys and other angio-rebels, who, faliing to destroy the Union, were now here by ‘their paid agents to prevent American commerce from recovering from the biow which they dealt it during the repollion. He said the arguments pro- duced against the bill were borrowed from the pam- phiet of John Codman and one Oakford, who were in the employ of the foreign shipbuilde:s, During the Gebate boch Codman and Oakfor d were in the gallery and became greatly exasperated at the remaras of Lynch, Allison, to test the strength of the op) osi- tion, moved to table the bill, but met with a defeat; ‘Days 106, yeas 68, Itis thought this is an indication that the measure will pass. A Plug Muss Between a Congressman and « Lobbyist—The Lobbyist Comes Oi Second Best. ‘The Arlington House was the scene of a little bit of ® scuffle to-night, the belligerents beng General Negiey, member of Congiews trom Pennsylvania, and Captain John Vodman, a lite fellow who has been ousy as a bee here for months lobbying against Lynch's bill for the revival of American commer It appears that Codman and Negley met at tle Ai Ungton, when conversation turned upon the Lynch Dill, Codman using, it is stated, very sirong language tm regard to the course of some of the mem- bers of Congress on the subject, Codman, 1s alleged, called Lynch very harsh names and at- tempted to criticize aise tie action of General Neg- ley bimsel/, ‘The latter, who is a- very good humored, five, dashing sort of a fellow, took the thing very pleasantly for awhile, but when Cod- man continued he retorted by charging the Ultie lobbyist with being a paid agent of the Clyde ship- builders. Godman, ike our valiant friend Hutch- ins, belongs to the race of Liliput, but he con- siders he has the soul of a Bropdimgnag. No- body can snecze at bim with mathemati- eal security, When Negley threw out the {nsinuation = th: he (Codman) was a paid agent of the Clyde people, he eyed the member of Congress most in‘repidiy, and, drawiog himself up three-ighths of an inch higher than usual, said deliberately, “General Negicy, if pou are only joking in making that statement I say nothing; but, sir, if -you are in earnest, I say it is ad—d lie.” Where- upon Negley, a good, stout, able man, put forward his dexter and very artistically removed the va‘ians Codman from tive standing to the horizontal position. In other words, as the pugs would say, tho first knock down was for Negiey. Codman promptly re- gained the perpendicular and struck Negley with @ can@é across the breast. Negley thrust the weapon aside and agnin and rather more forci- bly caused his opponent to measure his length on the tessclated pavement of the fashionable Arling- ton corridor. Then Codman got up again. Then, @3 my informant states, Negley langhed. Then Cod- man apologized. Negiey and Codman shook hands, ‘Then there was peace once more. Then Negley, Oodman and John Roach, of your city, all joined in &@ pleasant conversation. And then ail three went and took Mquid refreshments, No blood spilt. No . bones broken. ‘Let us have peace.” Captain John Codman called upon your corres- ponent since the fracas at the Arlington, and has given the following version of the diMfculty:— General Negiey and I met at the Arlington after inner, and in conversation on the subject of Mr. ynch’s bul the General remarked that the dificulty ‘was with the foreign agents, such as myself; to which f rephed that if the remark was in joke [ was, accustomed to tt, but if he tutended it in earnest it was alle. Whereupon General Negicy eagse me ‘with bis fist and I struck back with a cane. Imme- divtely we were separated by some gentlemen, Geueral Negley said’ he bad spoken hastily and ed me hand, which 1 fook. f did not use the mon at all, nor did I apologize to hun. It was le who apol to nie. A Magnificent Land Job Consummated. ‘The protracted fight in the House over the North- erp Pacific Ratiroad bill was brought to a termina- tion to-day by the passage of the piil., No bill of the. session has been fougiut more vigorously or defended with greater pertinecity. Its iriends, however, @eem to have had everything fixed from the tirst and ey therefore awaited patiently untit the minority should exhaust itseif, when they knew they would carry the bill without fail. There seems to be littie tn the minds of many members that the bill, to languag6 of one of the minority, was literally ought through House, The land grant guaran- teed by the bili iano ordinary land grant; it 1s 50 arge that it is diMeult to compute it in acres, and it ts said by those familiar with tha: section of country to be the best land sor agricultural purposes in the United States. Everything considered, the subsidy for the covstruction of the Grand Trunk line of the Pacific Ratiroad was notidng in point of vaiue io tue franchixe tossed to-day to the firm of Jay Cooke & Company with as much freedom on the part of the House as if ft had been a base metal penny.

Tne poor Surpet-bagzers, who are anxious to have # grand trunk road tn their section were given to undermand, it te said, tat unless they voted for this swindie they could not expect wo get Through any measure for the contruction of @ Southern Pucific rat!road. The protectionists had heid out to them the seductive bait thatthe road should be buflt of iron from American ore, This Kept the Pennsylvania delegation steady im the column, and accounts for thelr persiatent vote against all the amendments and im favor of the bill on its final passage, The minority, composed of men ike Siducy Clarke, of Kansas; Ela, of New Hampshire, Farnsworth, Cox, Holman and VanWyek, exhausted every spectea of tactics and maintained the fight to the last, but to mo purpose except to get the land grabbers on the record as having laid vio- Jent hangs upon the public domaim tor the purpose of giving it away to a private corporation, I¢ is un- derstood that a committee consisting of the republl- can minority that opposed the ‘bid will wait upon the President to-morrow and urge him to veto the bul, This will give Grant @ chance to define his Policy on the question of land grauts to private per- ties. The Cuban Question—Gencral Banke’ Report. In conversation with your correspondent to-day, General Banks stated, that within a very few days he would be ready to suvmit his report on the Cuban Question, -but that a minority report nad also been prepared, The report of General Banks, signed by @ large majority of the committee, is quite Jengthy, going over tie whole Cuban ques- tiou, from the outbreak of the rebellion to the present time, and recommending the administration to grant belligerent rights or te sus- pend the neutrality laws as regards Spato. Tam informed thatthe report does not touch upon the Phillips case or the murder in cold blood of Ameri- can citizens on Cuban soil, ‘That branch of the ques- ton ie to be let to the action of the House fiself, 1t being expected that some member will propose some proper proceeding to vindicate the sound character of the American flag, It ts stated that the State De- partment has information that Consut Phillips is eutirely unreliabte in bls assertions. To use the very nuldest term, Mis character is regarded with more than suspicion, and no credence is given te his stories of il-asage merely on account of his action as American Consul, But, whevher that be true or not, it is stll urged that cur government has ground enough otherwise agaiust Spain for msults oifered our flag and outrages perpetrated on our citizens to Justify it ta adopting some prompt and vigorous course against the Spaniards and in favor of Cuba. Should the neutrality laws be suspended the ad- ministration will in & measure be thereby relieved from responsibility 1u the matter. General Jordan wag at the Hone this after- noon in conference, from time to time, with imdi- vitual members known as friends of Cuban inde- Pendence, He recently had an interview with Presi- dent Grant, representing to him the resources of the insurgents and their prospects of success. Last night he dined with Representative Swann, there being present uearly all the mem- bers of the Committee on Foreign Afuirs. General Jordan expresses himself much pleased with the progress le has made since bis arrival in Washington in securing a more friendly interes& in behalf of the cause, especially among the members of Congress, ‘The River and Harbor Bill. The River and Harbor bill reported to-day makes appropriations to the amount of nearly three imtl- lions and a half of dollars. The following are among the items;—For the improvement of Boston harbor, 100,000; for the enlargemeut of harbor facilities at Chicago, $100,000; for the improvement of Erie har- bor, $20,000; for the improvement of Schuylkill river at Gibson's Point and above Chestnut street briige, Philadelphia, $14,000; for the improvement of Dun- Kirk harbor, $25,000; for the improvement of Buftaio harbor, $80,000; for the improvement of Olcott harbor, $16,000; fcr the improvement of Char- lotte harbor, New York, $20,000; for the improve- Ment of Big Sodus harbor, $6,000; for the improve- ment of Oswego harbor, $50,000; for the im, rove- ment of Ogdensburg barbor, $15,000; for the tm- provement of Hudson river, $40,000; for removing obstructions in the East river, including Heli Gate, $250,000; for the examination and surveys of tue north and northwestern lakes and rivers and the Atiantic and Pacific coasts, and for contingencies, $150,000, The Affairs of the Alexandria Post Office. With regard to the arrest of the Postmaster at Alexandria, mentioned in these despatches last might, the following facts have been elicited to-day:— About nine o'clock on Monday morning last Special Agent Fry proceeded from this city to the Post Ofiice at Alexandria snd arrested Mr. William D, Massey, the Postmaster, and took charge of the office and its contents, the assistants still discharging their duties under bim and the routine of the office continuing ag usual. No outsider would have known that any change had occurred. He at. once instituted a rigid and scrutinizing exam'nation of the office and its contents, requiring statements in reference to such matters as he thought proper from the employés in the office and about the butiding, Tins examiuation is still in progress, but is carried on very quietiy. Immediately upon his arrival Mr. Pry placed the postmaster under arrest, and that /gentieman promptly gave bonds in $5,000 to appear whenever called upon and answer such Charges as might be preferred against him. He continues in and about the Post Office, and on Tuesday night appeared in his seat at the city Councils and took part In the debate of that body, The allegations against the Postmaster are as follows:—That during the war a number of letters which came to Alexandria for soldiers in regiments which had moved off from that pert were destroyed, instead of being sent to the Dead Letter Office; that valuable letters which passed through the Alexandria Post Ofiice to per- sons in Warrenton, Va., never reached their desti- nation; that the Postmaster and some of his asstst- ants neglected business and were frequentiy intoxi- cated, An investigation of the charges will take place before United States Commissioner Georgo C. Round, at Alexandria, to-morrow, More Subsidies tor Unprofitable Euterpcises— Army Officers as Lobbyists. General Foster, General Babcock and a Mr. *‘Steruberg are the latest applicauts for another gov- ernment subsidy, Pabcock & Co. beg the modest little sum of only three millions to butld a break. water for the beuefit of the'Cape Cod Ship Canal. That is all they ask, and they will be satisilea, no doubt, ifthey get it, Itis suggested that General Babcock would be doing quite as well were he attending to his military duites instead of Jobbying about Con- gress, To-day he and his colleagues in the canal business appeared before the Senate Commerce Com- mitiee and made statements In favor of their job. Mr. Webb, of New York, made some farther state- mente before the same committee in reference to the proposed line of steamers to Austraila. ‘The Senate Committee on Foreign Relations con- tinued their investigation of submarine cables, Messrs. Field, Barney and Hubbard were heard again. It 18 understood that the committee have closed up this part of the business, and will now cousiler what action to take in the questions directly before them, Defeat of tho Amnesty Proposition, It wood seem that there fs still little, if any, hope ofa general amnesty measure being passed at this session, Since the speech of Senator Ferry on that subject a prominent republican Senator has made a canvass of the Senate, and he gives tt as the result of his efforts that not more than half a dozen republican Senators would vote for a General Am- nesty bil The game is also true of the House, according ‘to the statements of prominent republicans in that body, ‘the President, as already stated, has abandoned ail idea of recommending such @ measure, 80 that there is littlé chance for the ex-rebels being relieved of thelr disabilities for the present. Tne conduct of the Southerners is the ex- cuse for this, and jt seems to be the general opivion that had they behaved themselves and brought forth works meet for repentance general amnesty would have been procietmed before the close of the session, tor New Zealand and Austratin, Iris OMeially stated that correspondence for Now Zealand, Now South Wales or Australia muy be for Warded to destiiation, via San Francisco, by the diroct 1ne of colonial mai packets appointed to sail | ag from Sun Francisco on the 2th day of cach month, commencing on the Ihr June next, ‘The foilow~ tng rates ef Un ted Statics postage must be prepaid by stamp atthe mulling oice on letters and pews- Papers intended for transmission by thia route, viz. :—Ten cents for each single rate of half ounce or under on letters; two cents each on newspapers, andthe regular rates of United Btates domestic post- age on other articles of printed matter. - The Tax on ‘Theatres. ‘The reduction of the tax on the gross recetpts of ‘thetres from three to one per cent is malnly due to the exertions of Suaset Oox, who has received Rumerous protests from New York managers.

Many applications continue to be made to the Superintendant of the Censas for positions a+ census takers, While there is not time to answer allsuch applicants separately it may pe of general interest to know that the law requires the United States Marshais to appoint assixtant marshals for the sub-divisions, in their respective districts, not exceeding 20,000 persons in each sub-division.

NATURALIZED VOTERS OF RHODE ISLAM! Mr. EDMUNDS, (rep.) of Vt., from the Juliciary Committee, submitted the following report upon the. m morial of cilizens of Rhode Isiand upon discrimt- nations against naturalized citizens under the con- stitution of that State, and asked that the cominittee be discharged trom its further consideration, It Was so ordere: The Comnities on the Judiciary, to which was referred the petition of citizens of Riode Telamd setting fortn the fourteenth and fif' renth articles of amendment to the con- stitution of the United States, and stating thas the State of Rhode Island, notwithstanding the provision of named amendments, persists Ih, ana by th article second of the _ constitution a tn denying and abridxing tne rixvt of abont ton thousand cit- izes Of the the United states to voto at any and all elections ho.den in sald St nd praying that Congress will “pasa auch appropriate legislation as may be foundt.necosnary to obtain cor and secure to the citizens of the United States res- ident in Bhode 1 all the mghta, privileges and ira- them the constitution "respectfully report—That fo island, adopted in 1842, ies of qualification lor young. The drat yives all male citizens of the United Staten of @ certain age and sex the right to vote If they own real estate of the value of $1M, or which shall rent for $7_per annum, eecond gives to every male native citizen of the United States of a age and sex the right to vote if he pays a tax of one dollar 8 yesr, Ac., although he may not own real eatate, No man or party lias ever questioned the rigit of the people of Rhode Island and of other State to establish auch a constitntion of government as may eadie.to their views of public welfare in that State, although its provisions as suffrage may not conform to the opinions of citizens of other States. At a time when the constitution of Rhode Island was adopted the right to jate the gnalitcations of voters beionged exclusiveiy to the respective tates. The petition under consideration fully recognizes this, but it vaises the question—although studiously framed in such a manner as not to declare or insist upon such a con- @usion—whether, by the fourteenth and fifteenth amend- ments to the constitution of the Uniced btutes, natives of foreign countriea who have become citizens of the United ‘States are not entitled to vote in Rhode Island withont regard to the qualitications tmposed by herconsiltution, The commit- tee i# unanimously of opinion that this question must be ered in the negative, The privileges and fmmunities of oi ited States mentioned in the petition as secured by the fourteenth amendment do not include the right of suffrs Tf they did the right must necessarily exist in ail citizens of the United States, from the mere fact of citizenship, within the power in any State or in Congress to abridy fame in any dey in such case, therefore, no quafitication of kind could be imponed, and all persona being citizens, males and female Jnfanta, lunatics and criminals, without reapect to ay <_ of residence or any other thing, would be entitled to participate directly in all elections, Every provision in avery Stato which experience line proved to be eeventiat to security and good otaer in « would thereby be over- thrown, itis enough to say that the rights secured by this Amendment to the constitution are of an allo. gether different character. The Sfteenth amendment does apply to rights of suffrage, and lo them only, By {tthe Btate of Sthode Island, in common with every other state, ts forbidden to deny or abridge the right of citizens of th United States to vote on account of race, color or prev’ condition of servitude, But, plainly, the constitution of Kho Isiaud does not preciide any citizen froin voting on either or any of the yrounds tous prokibited. No fact of race or color or previous condition of servitude prevents aie citizen from voting in Kh Taland, "Neither 0 theaw qualiti lepends in any degree upon the place of his nativity. This seems too obvious to necd discussion. It is algo @ fact, appearing in the public records of Congress, and dountless known to the petitioners, thas when the amend: under ‘consideration by Con; tt Proposed to embrace in it prowiuition of denial of suifrage on account of nativity, ‘and that this proposition was not agreed to, for the reason that Congress did not think {texpe.ilent (o restrict the ancieat were of the Staten In these respects any further than ap- poared.to be needfyl to secure to the whole people the Feauits of the overthrow of the rebetiton.
