Traly yours, JUHN B. WICKERSHAM. Kew-York, Feb. 2, 1662, of affairs in Arizona, that it is scarcely possible this report can be true there are not 2,000 hostile Indians in the whole rritory. The Apaches are the only tribe against whow the Goverument is now waging war, and the greatest num- | ber of warriors they could gather together would not | amount to more than 600 or 700 at this season of the year. | When subsistence is scarce it is almost impossible for | them to continue in any large numbers. Two hundred in | one body is a very large foree at any time, Generally thoy range in bands of tweuty or thirty. A'large party of them could not subsist for more than two or three days. Fort Goodman is situated in a desert tract of country, about 80 miles from Tacon. The commanding officer, Col. Bennett of the California Volunteers is one of the most efficient and experieaced men in the country; and to sup- pose bie would permit 2,000 Apaches to enter his stockade and massacre bhis command is to indulge in & very improbable supposition. Not more than one in 20 of these Iudians is provided with fire-arms, and how could they capture an armed postof 125 men? That there may bave been some fighting is highly prob- able; but this extravagant report needs coutinnation be- fore any credit can be attached to it To the Awosiated Press. Wasisaroy, Friday, May 11, 1866, OPERATION OF THE REVENUE LAW. The Internal Revenue Burean, acting under the goneral law, roquires all citizens of the South to render income | roturns for the year 1864, as well as for 1865. Some of the Rebel officers rosiding in Alexandria, Va., are startled by | the calls of the assessors upon them to furnish the re- quired statemefMs, and are surprised that the rations re- coived by them in the Confederate army are estimated at 10 cents.” One of them expressed Lis readiness to pay hi< tax i1n Confederate woney, but this was of course declined.

Now, Sir, let us recall a | little of the history of the past on this subject, and_see, or | endeavor to see, the exact _position occupied by Mr. Lin- coln touching the power of Congress over the question of the readmission of Senators and Representatices from Rebel States into Congress. But before T comc to that, Sir, let us, if it be possible, ascertain what this policy of Mr. Lincolu actually 15, Let us entertain cloar ideas upon this subjec! certain, if it be possible, what s the ist of the controversy now existing be- ident and the Cnnfn-n of the United States, The best snnouncement of the policy of Mr. Johnson Il&mn the subject of Reconstruction, is, of course, 10 be found in the most solemn paper which he ever signed, pia (Cowan),in ver; policy i8 the identical polic reconstruetion of the and that is his me. it the opening of the nt ses- sion of Congress. 1 have read that m , Sir, with the utmost care. 1 have read it and studied it carefully and ho coun! ard if there be repeatedly, and so, Sir, has 1l derstood, both anly document in existonce that is wel in” Congress and out of it, it that document. Now, Sir, the following is a brief aynopsis of the views of the President on this subject contained in that paper. It assumes end asserts the power in the-President, to appoint Provisional Governors of the Rebel States, and to give them authority to call conventions and réestablish civil governments in them. This, Bir, it claims a8 au exclusive power—claims that it is derived from the Constitution— the power which he proceeded to exercise at an early pe- riod, and, Sir, a power which, in my Eudgmrm, cxists in no part of the Constitution of the United States. Iu the document, e claims the right to recognizo such gov- ernments as State Governments, with all the powers, and privileges of States in the Union, 1n short, he clais tho power, as the Executive ¢ United States, to make poace with the Stutes once in insurrection. Sir under what clause of the Constitution does the President of the United States find power to proclaim and establish ch after a state of war has intervened, whether with o oreign country with which we m:rhl happen to be at war or with u Staté or District declared by Congress to be in insurrection! He has not the power under the Coustitu- tion to make war, and for the same reason he has no power | under the Constitution to make peace ; and Congress has never in any statute which it has passed given to the Pres- ident of the United States any authonty whatever to de- claro peace even in regard to the Rebel Statos. Gentle- men will look in_vain for any such authority. In the nct of 1361 the Prosident was authorized to declaro certain States or parts of States, according to his discretion, or in other words, according as the fact might appear to him, to be in insurreetion; but, Sir, Congress never gave to him any power whatever to declare the insurrection at an eud, el less to declare the insurrectionary Districts or States restored to the status which they occupied before the war; much less to declare that peace’as mcll bad intervened. Mr. CowaN inquired whether thero was a necessity for any declaration of the kind ; whether it was necessary to declare the return of peace by proclamation. Mr. How ARD—That is by no means the question. It is not & question whether there be any necessity for granting wuch power to the President or any other person; but the uestion is whether it has been grauted, I sssert that ‘ongress has never granted any such power to the Presi- dent as to declare that peace in all its form 11 its ons, Las been restored to the insurpectionary district o Dra gakeens oond enre t0 resgeve fof hepelves the § = | that when it is fully | the United Stat ) PO oy e =y i N [ ) CROL G, e 3 DAY, MAY 12, 1866. sutborit, , and T need only refer to the fact that the stat- ute to '{ich 1 refer was drawn by the hand of one of the most eautions and circumspect t and profound conatitue tional Inwyers of the country. 1 refer to the Hon. Mr. Colamer of Vermont, who is understood to bave been the sathor of that act, He by no means_inserted uny clause in that statute authorizing the President of tho United States to declare that peace has returned. Mr. Soyser—He was the suthor of that act. + Mr. HowArp—But the President’s message fssumes {hat it is within the constitutional competency of the nt of the United States to make peace with the ia- and it assumes, Sir, all this without ition on sny of it pages orin any of the power or duty of Congress to legi nd important subj ores completely . and treats the Exceative as the only source of power over the Rebel States, It does not propose to. cone sult Congress at all on the subject of reconstruction, and takes as little pains to refer this subject to any other braneh of it of to Congress as if there was ro Congress, aud with singular coolness asks the two Houses .o slightest recoj its paragraphs of late on these momentous as message 1§n 0 to Judge ea for iteelf of the election returns and’ qualifications of its own membe Mr. Howard, after quoting from tho message aud some ot the proclamations of the President, said that he (Presi- dent Johnson) had presumed to appoiut, without law, for the Southern States, and to jm- r ar o call couventions for the purpose of al- owing those States to reodel their const us_and to enaet laws to cover the whole ficld of Stat ation, wud ho hud fuid, after having done this, very cooily and vory eondescendingly to Congress, it uow remains for Provisional Governors art the pow you to judge of what—of the Gtness of the States for readmission into the Union? No, 8ir! To judze of anything elsel No, Sir! But simply end solely to judge the elections, qualificatious aad returas of the Senutors and Representatives who might bappen to be clected to represent the Sonthern States rcconstiucted under the Exccutive decree. Thero was a tots] abregation on the part of the Executive of any authority whatever for Congress to interfere or intermeddle, to regulate in any manuer whatever the status of the Rebel States, Mr. Howard said be would not assert that Provisional Gov- ernors ought not to have been appointed, but the question was, * What power bad the President over the subject % 1t was for Congress and not for the President o have au- thorized these appointments. The power exercised by tho Presidont in this matter was one of the most ¢normous v.mrgulinn! of the power of Congress ever attempted. If the Congress of the United States sbould, at this moment, wink at thig assumption of power, if they shonid not stand up here to assert their constitutional power over (Lis most important branch of their duties, then he (Howard) looked forward to the timo when the will of (he Execu- tive of this nation sha!l become she law of the | Mr. Howard coutinued: President should | ealled Congress together at the close of the w of claiming the t to say that he, Andrew Jolinson the Lucky, was to say how the work of reconstruction was to be conductad. rring to Mr. Lincolu's plan of recon- struction, Mr. Howard Now, Sir, let the name of Lincoln be no longer quoted Lere as b Ye wathor ser of his most enormous policy, by which the 8 over the lll'{ ¢t ol reconstructic 4 to he and of the Exe the United id good a hed into the singl 1 1ch o 1088 ot descerate the naus incoln b wan as President Linco! attempt to usurp the pow President, the fonorable Secretary of State, in the px—lmh-d 8| b de livered by him at Cooper Institate, in N, the 224 day of February, s «dy with of the President’s own ¥ ch T hav Inded spenkingof thy following lap which tome is very stra suro that this plan [that is, t is going to suceced.” That is Imission of the Southera ire of it,” says the Secre- ause fome plan must succeed.” He is plati i one to succeed, becan ) Dwas a boy at school studyi t by way of W tary of State, ** erfect) 18 uttered such a sentence as t I Jk the professor would bave told me B non seguit wAnd beesuse” continues the tary, * this is the onl, n which hied been atten oo will be | "&e, The only plent H hoorable Scerctary forgotten the of Mr. Lincoln, 8 plan as difforent from that of Mr. is from darkuess, * Certainly,” ho say iy that can | upted with success.” We will ¢ issue, Mr. President, Fmoke no be 1 throw o menace and no defiance; but I say with contidence he the friends of this poliey, | will try that issue before t country, and 1 kzow nothing in it ‘which would deter an bonest man from espousing the pezative; and 1 d fairly presented to the people of o understand what it e and purpore » bisve done so much to preserve the Gove Lonor, will give & lasting o policy s contidontly asse od b He says it 18 nearly exceuted al o8 ry of 3ta s Btates, e says, hearken to this The just ws truly in the exercire of their entions, and_ powers, and _faculties of New-York is at Albasy to- is the logical co uepce of thisl ates are, at the pre titutionally in the sented in the Hous fuse to York; and if Con them the same privileges of representation that is enjoyed 1y the State of New-York, whai is to bo apprebended ! ical result of the asse fi o Secretiry ¥ ate as perfeetly re! e members of this Union, ue is the ork 7 Sir; I would not impute to the Sec- of State any unlawful or wieked intention. 1 do not. ~ But I cannot read this language and draw some inference from it, that it ot least squints at £ o possibi of arwud interference at some future time, and th What is the | ey 1 Tisbwnent, by means of exccutive power, of the atruy tates in Congress, with a full quota of Repre- sentatives and Senators, 1f they are lly en- titled fo this representation, and as mu ew-York, it is wholly uncoustitutional to keep thew out; and, ac- conling to the idea of the Secretary of State, thie corduct ‘ongress on this subject is usurpatory, revolutionsry, almost treasonable. 8ir, there is but one step more after such a declaration; that is, an advising of the em ployment of military foree to carry out this purpose. In conclusion, Mr. Howard, referring to the concition of the South, argued that the spirit of the rebel- lion still existed there, and that, under a President like Buchanan, it would break out again. He in- tended to resist the executive intentions, of which he had spoken, while he had & seat 1 this body, If Con- gress was to be expelied by the '.oim of the bayonet, ss Z the interest of the Pr nmended by ne i he, for one, 'muhi resist it.

[Applause in the galleries.) Mr. Cowad said tho spucch of Mr, Howard was an ad- missfon that there was a failure on the part of the Union forces. ‘They took the Bouthern Btates out of the Union, sccording to'his (Mr. Howard's) ides, and they wore now subjugated proviuces, What authority is the Honorable &n-md-tnd with to make conquest of his fellow citi- zens? He (Mr.Cowan) thought if the object of the war was o comw| Southern people to fulfill their constitutional obligations, it had failed, according to the Senator from Hleglgm (Mr. Howard). But if, on the other hand, tho war was for the purpose of conqueriug these pecple, treat- Inr them as serfs aud slaves, then it was an outrage upon all rights and all authority, and hrd no gum(yin founda- tion anywhere, It was an set unworthy of enfixm«-n«l men, espocially thoso descended from the siguers of the Declaration of Independence. e did ot know where the right of conquest was vested in any part of this Government, We of the American nation had ab- n.-rm-d the right of conquest and of subjugation. How did we justify ourselves in the first Revolution? Was it not by asserting that every community, every people, had the right to choose their own form of government!? He had heard the Declaration of Independence quoted in the Senate, to establish absurdities, which it never was in- tended to establish. But here was a great historic fact which no man dare tg deny, that the Revolution was base! upon the right of a people 1o govern themselves, and that nobody else had the right o iwwm thew. The Sen- ator from Michigan had talked about stauding in the pass Thermopyle. He stands in the breach, it is true; but Mr. Cowan thought it was in the breach to prevent the reiistablishment, the reunion of the couutry’s government. The Spartans had stood in the pass to roll back the tide of foreign invasion, that they might not become Persian provinces, boeause they denied that Xerxes, kln{ur kings, bad the right to_couquer them and hold them as a conguered people. It was desecration, he thought, on the part of the nator from Michigan, to allude for the very reverse pur- pose to that which had been sacred for 6,000 years. He would ask by what warrant the war was made! Was it becauso of an izherent political sovereignty by which one Kmnplo have the right Ea dominate over another? Who, o asked, would dare to avow that theory upon the floor of the American Senate? The denial of any inherent political sovereignty was the very corner-stone of the American Revolution, He considered that the warrant for the war was tho Coustitution and the Jaws. lell" of the Rebel States had bound themselves to that ‘onstitution, aud Lad assisted in making the laws, They seceded, sought to avoid their duty to those luws, and we claimed the right to compel them to stand upon them. We did compel the recusants, the Rebels, the truitors, to lay down their arms—not to surrender to any set of we not to the P lent, mnot to Congress—but to the laws. We forced them to tender their willing- ness to ohey—not the Senator from Michigan, Senators, but to obey tho laws, the Constitution v had surver nor any num arms compelled them to surrend the laws, and he thousht that w b By vh sy Mmbe Dbl Svh ey langers, iais injustice and eruelty, | monstrosities, Sir, 1 do loubt that au honest, loyal snd gallaut tume, as legii- | ud in pos- !

Mr. Cowan tbought that to execute individual v:%mce upoD & Wau—to hang him without law—wey wwarder, and he who committed it a wurderer. The law is supreme, and to the 1aw alone he thougnt we bowed. Ko said we owed no allegiance to Congresses or Presidents in this country, and he thanked God for it, and he hoped the day would never come when we shonld be held to obey anything but the law. We were but slaves when we wore the collar and barness of men, and, if ever wo did, he thought we should be unworthy sous of Revolu- tionary sires. The States, said Mr, Cowan, are corperations, and the citizens are c;!rpunlom 'v:hen any cti,rpflmlnrl undertook to prevent the purpose of the corporation it was the duty onhg United States to step in and protect the otter corporators in the enjoyment of their nght. Gen- tlemen talked of the President mlor‘m1 the States. He would tell them that neither the President nor Congress could do anything of the kird. The States must do that for themselves, There were two ways of doing it. One was for the States to continuc a8 they were; on the other d, it was rirht for the President, if he chose, to sct aside the Rebel Government as_unfaithful, and appoint ersons to take the trust, as would have been done by s Sonrt, Alr. Towr asked him where the President got the power 10 appoint governors. N{r?(}ow‘\u said he got it from Lis power as Command- gfit it from his duty to sec er-in-Chief of the army; he e had & right to airest the that the laws were execated. t rebels and traitors, and he had a right to appoint persons own people had to wateh over the trust to which their been unfaithful. President Lincoln chose the latter al- ternative. Mr, Howard bad nsked where the Prosident had power to coufer political rights. Nobody ever rretended that the President ever conferred political rigl _on any- body. He (Mr. Cowan) would go frther and fling back into the teeth of the advocates of this doetrine, that Con- 038 camnot confer political rights upon anybody, What power has Congress to confer political rights? ‘fhank God! the citizens of the =States held other rights from a higher source than Copgress. What had the war done 7 Had it repealed any laws, or destroyed any costitutions 1 Certainly not. ~Then the oo f the war bronght back the Southern States to their status quo ante bellum, 'The war was congueted on rty that was foremost in rond» this idea, but now that ] ductiog the war, was declaring the war & failure, an its lenders were declarig disanion to be fact, The Senator from Michi, advoeated plan that would neer secure Union, though it Might secure conquest. There was never such & non_ se- quitur us that, beeause the Southern people were not loyal; thouh they might send loyal men to Congress, those men would do nothing but carry out the treasonable desires of their constituencies, Thé Secretary of State, said Mr. Cowan, was entitled to more confidence than he had re- ceived ut the hands of Mr. Howard. His rank as o states- | wan and his position before the world entitled him to this. It happened that Mr. ed with the President and diragreed with the Senator from Michigan, As many of your new recruits and pew zealots as you ean batch out of theso turbulent times may come here and attempt to pasail the motives and designs of Willism H. Seward, and the American people will remember Lim and abide by his counsels, or 1 am very much mistaken. There is no Re- construction except that which comes in obedience to the laws. I'lhe doctrie advanced by Mr Howard is disunion. It shuts the door of hope. e (Mr Cowan) could not stand over the graves of two huadred thousand Union soldiers and say that they were o men who said there was no Union. It was a fac- | tion in power here who said that the Southern people were | witit o come in, and why ? Because,come in a8 they may, | they will never join with these extremists, However much | he (Mr. Cowan) might deprecate the accession of a party opposd v L, Le still would bow in submission 10 the nhu the people; not to do s0 was to be & secessionist like the secessionists of 1860, It wes said now that we can't trust the Demoeratic party. It was then suid we cun 't trust the Republican ;(- ity At the conelusion of Mr. Cowan's speech the question was taken upon the following amendment: "Lt 1o pereon exercislug, ol performing, of undertaking to exercise or perform any duties of auy office, which by law are Tequired to he filed by the advice and consent of the Sena <hiall, before contirmation, receive suy compensation for b ervices, unless commissioned Ly the President to fill & va- caney occasioned by death, resiguation ar expiration of term o vote was as follows: won, Moward, Howe, Lane (Ind.). ‘Moiril, Nye.

All the ladies were asked if tbey bad lost relatives in the army. One widow, poor but merry, said her “son and brother would have been in the army, if she had ever had ove, and ber husband too, only he died before the war, but she had an uncle killed in the war of 1812, and she would dig him up right away if it would do any good 1f the Bureau of the Controller of Currency is a fair sample of the others, the proportion of soldiers and ladies who have had near relatives in the army is already large, and the resalt of in- vestigatiou will be satisfactory to those who wish that the De- partments of Goverument be made as much as practicable a | bome for the sufferers by the war; but there is part of the work of the Departments which will not be done by men who have sorved in camps, for the reason that another kind of talent and experience is required for its efficiont execution. Nor will the heads of bureaus always be patient with those who care little for the faitbful performance of their duties, feeling secure in their places because themselves or their friends were in tsearmy. It cannot be denied that some seem to take ad- vantage of this fact to neglect all sorts of work. Altbough to have lost a limb or a husband in the war makes o strong plea for the assistance of the Government, it might ss well be understood that is oarrying it too far, to make it an excuse for utter lnginess. There are in the different depart- ments many disabled civilians, to whom office is as important a8 & means of liveliood, as to any disabled soldier, and some are workiog well aud faithfully, in the hope of retaining their places by the side of soldiers, who do Dot balf as much or half ns well; bot this is an unpopular way of looking at it; and it i# to the credit of publio feeling that it is so, for to the soldiers We 0We more than we can ever repay. | i BALTIMORE, Friday, May 11, 1866, Yesterday Jefferson Davis was indicted for treason by the Grand Jury of the United States District Court, now in session at Norfolk, and the trial of the prisoner, it is | supposed, will take place in June.

Al early bour in the morning, anxious, ardeat, bustliog erowds assembled on the sidewalks, eager to cateh a glimpes of Jamen Stepbens, the celebrated Irish revolationist, who, as our Jast Teports stated, is at present the guest of the Lelands. Ae the day advanced the crowds increased, and about 10 o'clock tho press of people was so great that it was deewed advisable 0 bold a formal levee. When it was avnounced that M Stephens was ready to see any persons who ‘wished to v him, there was & grand rush up the epacious stairwa) corridors were instantly filied, and tbe regular guests of tho bouse £ed in dismay to their apartments before the Fenian in- vaders, Mr. Stephens's rooms are on_the third floor, and tie Thunder of the ceaseloss tramp, tramp of the incomers ond i s may be easily i ned.

He elbowed his way among the crowd to the Headcenter, and was under the uecessity of introduciug himself.

We may here state that there is not the most remote possibility that Killian will hold office in any future organization of the froth- erbood. The Executive Comwiitee who have lately been en- gaged in tryiug him, Killiau, and some of bis coufrerca for Killian for hi nalteisance in office, have not yet preseuted their report; but it is nnderstood that he will beigaominiously expelled from the Brotberbood.
