Mr. FRELINGHUYSEN, (rep.) of N. J., gave notice thaton Tuesday next he would move to take up the Civil Rights bill, reported by the Judiciary Commitiee on Tuesday last. THE MENNONITES. The Senate then, en motion of Mr. Wixpow, pro- ceeded to the consideration ot the bill to enable the Mennonites of Russia to effect a permanent settiement on the public lands of the United States, and Mr. STEWART, (rep.) of Nev., offered a sub- * stitute providing that the Secretary of the in- Terior, upon application of a body of suca per- sons, might authorize them to locate in any land district vy giving the proper certificate in ‘writing stating that an application nad been filed, reciting the number of persons so applying and the number of acres which they might meciude in their claim, the exclusive right of entry to be held such persons for a period of two years, but, at expiration of that time, all lands not entered by them to be open to tue entry of any one, The substItute further provides that no one filing shali embrace more than one township of thirty- six sections, nor shall a new filmg be made until the lands 0! former filing shall be exhausted. Mr. CONKLING said it had been statea that these Mennonites wanted so come to this country to | avoid the periormance of military duty at home, | and that they expected to be exempted /rom such | service here. He desired to say that he could not | give his assent to any such thing, as all must con- tribute their share to the common defence. Pending the discussion the morning hour ex- | Ppired and the Senate resumed the consideration of | ‘the bill vo provide jor a new election in Louisiana, | $ THE LOUISIANA ELECTION BILL, Mr. West, (rep.) of La., said ne had been ques- | thoned yesterday us to the re-enactment of the election jaw in Lowsiana, and had then stated | ‘that he had no knowledge of the tact. The only knowledge he ad was geferal, and that informa- tion Was received from tne Governor. He was cor- roborated in that idea by the tone of the New Orieans papers, the latest he had being of Saturday | and Sunday last, and they commented on the law | to whiva he reiersed. From the despatch of Gover- | mor Keilogg read yesterday he (Mr. West) supposed the Governor said it was false that two election laws had passed, but upon a closer examination of the despatcn he was led to believe tne Governor meant it was false that he intended to sign and promulgate hereafter the law which repealed the new election jaw. Last night he bad telegraphed to Governor Kellogg that he had been charged on the floor of the Senate with hoiding back an elec- won law, ana inquiring if more than one had been . To this Governor Kellogg replied that two election laws were passed, and the latter one was approved March 28: ther would not be ap- roved. He (Mr. West) deemed it to be due to umselfto make these statements, ashe did not | Wish to rest under the imputation of suppressing a information. Ir, STEVENSON, (dem.) of Ky., said he was satis. fied yesterday that tue gentleman (Mr. West) had been deceived by Mr. Kellogg. KELLOGG DICTATOR IN LOUISIANA. Mr, CARPENTER (rep.) of Wis., said a few days agoa {nena of Governor Kellogg came to his office to in- tercede with him against the passage of tis bill, and denied the existence of the obnoxious election Jaw. He (Mr. Carpenter) took down the Louisiana statute and showed it to him, and since then he had been informed that this party went directly to the lor | that city $1,264,500. w fog et that compeiled by federal inter- .we people of that State had done every- . treir power to show that they did not .t© the Kellogg usurpation.

Nt McMillan as Senator, and the adoption of the prop- | osition of the Senator irom Delaware (Mr. |-ard), requesting the President to withdraw the Troops irom the State, that the McEnery govern- ment might be installed. If this were done the Senator irom Indiana ( Morton) would soon see how much the people of Louisiana acquiesced in the Kellogg government, Mr. MonTON denied the power of Congress to set aside the election in Louisiana and order a new one under the provision of the constitution of the United States that the United States shall guar- antes each State a republican form of govern- Ment, a8 such action would be destructive of the — integrity and independence of State governments. The constitutio: provision was intended to guarantee a republican against an aristocratic or monarcnical form of government, not to correct election frauds, hen the constitution was tramed we had just achteved our independence ef monarchy. ‘There were in all the States. Several States were then actually administered by an aristocracy of prop- erty. From 1774 to 1787 the great question had been the rejection of monarchy and the establish- ment Ol republicanism. it was tntended to secure the triumph of republicanism by declaring in the constitution that the United States should guaran- tee to each State a republican form of govern- ment. He quoted from Madison, in the ist, to snow that the only restriction intended by the constitution was that States should not exchange proposition now urge tion or possession O! the offices destroys the repub- lican character of the State government, De facto monarchs, presidents or governors have never been held to change -the form of a government They are accidents of the administration. CENTRALIZED POWER, If Congress cau pass this bill it can set aside any State government on uny pretext, for it 1s the sole judge. It involves the power to investigate every State election and makes Congress a canvassing ard. It involves the power to reguiate State | administrations, suspend State governments, set them aside and create new ones ut the caprice of assion or party interest, and allows States to ex- ist Only by suiferance. While sovereignty exists in the nation State governments should be in- dependent in their spheres. The very idea of | State government is destroyed gf Congress can | | supervise their administration. At the end | of the war the Southern States were without government. A republican form of government could not be guaranteed where there was no gov- ernment at all, and reconstruction was a political and constitutional necessity, The constitution intended to give Congress a protectorate over republican forms of government in the States | against monarchy or aristocracy or anarchy, whicn is the absence of government, The power now contended jor would put States as com- peter under the control of! Congress as are the | Territortes, would cen‘ralize and consolidate all | power in the national government, and leave the State governments mere conveniences and expedi- ents to be altered at will, This bill overrides the constitulion of the State of Loutsiana as to the | time and manner of election and tenure of office. It would give to Louisiana State officers anda | Legislature in defiance of its constitution and laws. | He argued that Congress had no right to go behind | the decisions of the State Courts and the action of the returning board, There is a necessity fora State government, which involves @ necessity for | State tribunals to decide questions arising under | its constitution and laws, and the decisions should | | be final. This mischie!, which would arise from setting them aside, is infinitely greater than any bepedt that could possibly accrue. In this argu-, ment he bad proceeded on the Senator’s (Mr. Carpenter’s) assumption of fact, which he (Mr. | | Morton) did not admit. The Legislature of Lousi- ana bad inaugurated GREAT REFORMS, State taxes ave been reduced from 2134 mills to 1444 mills, and parish taxes from 213; miils to a iraction less than 11 mills. The total State and parish taxes under the former administration was 43 mills; under this, as fixed by the last Legisla- ture, 25 milis. The Governor and Legislature have acted in full harmony with the city authorities of New Orleans, and reduced the annual expenses of | The expenses or the General | in 1870 were $695,000; in 1871, $1,025,000; | Yn 1872, €849,978; in 1873, the first year of Governor | Keliogg’s administration, $218,410, and in 1874, 75,000, The appropriations for the general fund, covering current expenses for 1870, were $3,091,000; 1or 1871, $8,723,000; for 1872, $2,031,019; for 1573, the first year of Governor Kellogg's ad- Ministration, $1,649,832; for 1874 (estimated) $955,232. This statement did not comprenend ap- propriations for levees or schools under the infu- | ence of this administration. Confidence is being restored, trade is reviving, prices of property are advancing, and the prospects of Louisiana are growing brighter from day to day. Mr. TirtToN, git.) of Neb., ined the floor to speak on the Dill and yielded for a motion for an executive session, which was agreed to, and at Nalf-past four o'clock the Senate proceeded to the | consideration of eXecutive business. Alter a short time tne doors were reopened and the Sen- ate adjourned. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, WASHINGTON, April 16, 1874. Immediately after the reading of the journal the House went into committee of the whole on the Legislative, Executive and Judicial Appropriation | bill, Mr. WoopForp, (rep.) of N. ¥., im the chair, Mr. ParKsr, (rep.) Of Mo., moved to strike out the item of $43, for newspapers and stationery for members. After discussion the amendment was rejected. Mr. HaLe, (rep,) of N. Y., moved to make the Congressional Printer an ofMfcer of the United States, instead of, as now, an officer of the Senate. Afver discussion the amendment was adopted, The item of $8,000 for the purchase of books for Assemb), telegraph office ana telegraphed Governor Kellogg | to have that law repealed. Jt was not necessary | to have a Legislature in that State, as the Gov- ernor bimseif could repeal all the laws he desired to. That despatch enabled Governor Kellogg to inform his iriend {rom Indiaba (Mr. Morton) and Bis Kepresentative—no, | mean the Senator—from Louisiana (Mr. West) that the law had been re- pealed. Now, at jast, when the thing was smoked out it turned out to be a dirty tick on the | rap ot Kellogg. ‘The law had been repealed, ths (Kellogg) had in his pocket an act repealing | the repealing act, which wouid reinstate the whoie obnoxious iaw.

POLITICAL AND MORAL WRONG. Mr. Hows, (vep.) of Wis., said if the Li lature of Louisiana did pass a law repealing an obnoxious one ad then pass another repealing that, witu the intention that tue Governor should approve i prior to the next election, it was a piece of polit ai and moral wrong, which could flud no justutica- tion with him, and he hoped tt would not fail to receive the most ungualied condemnation of | every one. Mr. HaMILTon, (dem.) of Md., resnming his re- marks, commenced yesterday, reviewed tie eyi- dence in the Louisiana vase, and suld the = lishment of the Kellogg government was the re- salt of one of the most deliverate and cunningly contrived conspiracies Known to history.

Mr. Homan, (dem.) of Ind., moved to reduce the item of the President's salary from $50,000 to $25,000. He argued that the increase of salary Jast session, including the President’ of the Presideut’s household, Mr. HALE, (rep.) of Me., opposed the amend. | Ment, aud stated that so much of the Presidential mansion Was occupied for public purposes that the family Was huddled into swaller apartments than were occupied by thousands of private families all over the country. He declared that none of the items for the Presidential household were personal perquisites. Mr. BUTLER, (rep.) of Mass., spoke to the same question, because, he said, is attention had been called to the subject by his colleague (Mr. Dawes) some time ago ip a munner that bad struck the country. That statement had been that the Presi- denual office yielded to its incumbent $400,000 during the term. He went onto analyze the ap- propriations for the Presidential household and to show that they were in no wise perquisites, but, on the contrary, added to the President's discom- fort. There had been no increase, and, substan- tially, no decrease, in those expenditures fora great many years. WASHINGTON’S PRESIDENTIAL PERQUISITES, Mr. MAYNARD, (rep.) of Tenn., asked Mr. Butier whether be had ever taken the trouble to make an estimate of the comparative cost of the Presiden- tial oMce now and in General Washington’s time, without taking into account the difference in the value of money. i Mr, BUTLEB *244 he had, and that the cost {ft Washington’s time was neurly aouble that of the present time, and that, too, at a time wnen flity cents a day was the wages of the skilled workman, who now receive $4 or $5 aday.

He read it, with running comments, to the great amusement of the House. | THE HUMORS OF FRUGALITY. | Mr. Cox, (dem.) of N. Y., said he had supposed | the two gentlemen from Massachusetts (Messrs. butler and Dawes) had harmonized their diter- ences on account of some little local issue. (Laughter.) He had been surprised, therefore, to find this little divergence of views between them, He was surprised that bis friend (Mr. Dawes) had taken back 80 many wise and good things which | co he had heretofore said about economy. All that | had been said by Mr, Butler about the peculiarity of dress and about the luxury of the days of Wash- ington and Jefferson and Hancock, did not effect | the Irugality, the honesty, the Seca: Ae of the men who served the public on those small salaries. He, himself, did not care how men dressed; he did not care about sumptoary laws; he did not care if his friend from M assachusetts (Mr. Butier) caine in in sky-blue pantaloops and addressed the House; it would add to the attrac- tions of the General. Laughter.) It had been said by a ‘istinguished New York editor, who Was in Washington recentiy, and who had given a lecture in New York on his return, | thatit seemed as if everybody in the States desired | Lo come to Washington, and that Governors of States only became local magistrates in order to _ become United States Senators. All the architec- | ture and ali the grandeur of Washington tended to | lessen the oid detnocratic idea of a frugal, simple, houest government. He was most surprised that | his honest, simple-héurted, irugal-minded fiend | Jrom Massachusetts (Mr. Dawes) should be in- clined vo take back some things whicn he had said He quoted from @ news- Paper paragraph a statement in which somebody 18 represented as having inquired of mr. Butler what the eflect of the circulation of Mr, Dawes’ speech In Connecticut was, in which Mr. Butler 1s represented as ay “Bad for the republican arty,” and adding, “When an ol brindle svecr ike Dawes gets in the habit of breaking out of the pound when it is dark and drizzly, there is no cornileld ig the country sale.” (Nproarous jauch. | monarchists | republican for anti-republican constitutions, The | is that a fraudulent elec- | perquisite of the Speaker. alary, was |- | unconstitutional, and he also criticised the items | ‘ter, In which Mr. Dawes rtily, while Mr. Batier sat looking sole and stolid, as if he did ‘Dot see the fun o: the thing.) Mr. Cox went on quoting from the newspaper paragraph in which Mr. Butler is alao represented as saying that Mr, Dawes knew too mach of the party secrets and must ba) bell put round his neck, But who, said Mr, is man to bell Se pane, from Massachusetts ? Let bim step for and do it. Nobody but himself can do it; and be has done it to-day (alluding to some re- marks of Mr. Dawes in defence of the 1.ems for the Presidential mansion). MR. DAWES RXPLAINS, Mr. Dawes, (rep.) Oo! Mass., replied to the re- marks of Mr. Butler, who, he said, was never so distinguished in debate as when be made and belabored his own issues. He ‘denied that he (Mr. Dawes) had said anything as to the unreasonable- ness of a single appro] ‘ion for the President’s mansion. What he hi in the ch referred to bad reference to appropsianians for the Exec- utive establishment. He admitted that he might have been a little more hn ald in his words and made the distinction clear between the items per- | sonal to the President and those that went to the | corexing on of the Executive establishment. Replying to Mr. Cox, he denied that he had taken back in New Hampshire the speech which ne had made in the House a few years ago, and said he | had only added to it a°mess: from the President to the paowis of New Hampsh' that whenever tt could pointed out that $1 coula be saved to the Treasury that $1 would be saved. But he had changed nothing, and he changed nothing | to-day of what he had said in that speech, which | had been circulated in New England. Mr. BUTLER quoted from Mr. Dawes’ speech in the House some months ago to strengthen the | criticism which he (Mr. Butler) had made or. it. Mr. Dawsgs remarked that he had made the cor- rection himself. Mr, BuTLER—Pardon me, but it was corrected in so gingerly a manner that 1 am afraid the people would not understand it. The explanation has so fores,” that I want to bring before the country that these tings are no more personal perquisites of the President than these desks are the personal perquisites of members, or than the Speaker's parlor, which he never can get mto, is the personal THE “EARLY DAYS” AGAIN. Mr. Cox remarked in Sere ni ol to Mr. Butler that the paragraph as to the luxury of eurly days was a fancy sketch, Mr. BUTLER—I am glad to hear it. Mr. Cox—Iv was written by Grace Greenwood the other day and published in the Washington Chronicle, Mr. BUTLER—I am glad to hear it. fact what turns out to be fancy, Mr. BUTLER—No, sir; whenever I put a news- aper so false and 80 miserable before the House en stand corrected, but not by the gentieman irom New York. Mr. Cox—But this Is fancy, and 1s not so good or so Smart as the gentleman’s fancy generally. Mr. BuTLER—Pardon me, you are neither good nor smart. (Laughter.) Mr. KELLEY, (rep.) of Pa., wanted Mr. Cox to state whether there were a8 Many gold spoons in the Presidential mansion as Bpyoete had found there when Van Buren was President, Mr. Cox—Why not address that question to the other side of the House? It does not belong to this side. Mr. KELLEY—You are hunting after the gold spoons. Mr. Cox—I never make this sort of personal re- mark here toward any member of the House, and never will. CONSTITUTIONALITY OF THE INCREASE. My. Kasson, (rep.) of Iowa, argued against the conSstitutionality of the increase of the President's salary. The constitution provided that the Presi- dent’s salary should not be increased or diminished | during the period for which he shall have been | elected. General Grant had been re-elected in | November; the votes had been canvassed prior to the passage of the act increasing salaries. The certificate had been duly made out, showing that General Grant had been elected President. The time for entering upon his new term arrived within twelve hours when he signed the act. Without sleeping one might alter signing that act he was sworn out of office. He argued that the constitution had intended to provide that the question of the signature of such @ measure should belong to @ disinterested Presi- dent, It was for these reasons, because the act had been signed by the President after he had been elected, and, because it affected the Pres!- dent's own interest, that he felt compellea to vote for the amendment offered by Mr. Holman. Mr. ‘Kasson’s argument was controverted by Messrs. HALE and TREMAIS, (rep.) of N Y., and POLAND, (rep.) of Vt. Mr. WILLARD, (rep.) of Vt., remarked that ten arguments could be found in favor of increas- ing the salaries of members of Congress and mem- bers of the Cabinet, for the one that could be fouud in favor of increasing the Presidents salary. Finally the question came to a vote, aud Mr. Holman’s amendment was rejected. E. R. Hoar, (rep.) of Mass., moved to increase the salaries of the two Assistant Secretaries of State from $3,500 to $6,000. geet ee (rep.) of Conn., moved to make it 5, 500, Mr. SENER, (rep.) of Va., moved to make it After a long discussion, in which Mr. GARFIELD, (rep.) of Ohio, suggested that there should be a commission during the next recess to revise the salaries of the whole civil list, ail the amendments were rejected, Mr. PURMAN, (rep.) of Fla., movet to strike out the proviso which forbids the publication of the laws in newspapers after March, 1875. After discussion the motion to strike out was re- jected, and then the committee rose, having gotten through four pages of the biil to-day. Mr. BUTLER, of Massachusetts, from the Commit- tee on Judiciary, reported a bill for the distribu- tion of the Geneva awards. recommitted.
