TION COMMITTEE. | The final report of the Reconstruction Committes, which wa erday submitted to the Senate by Mr. Fessenden, and which we print this morning | in full, will command the undivided attention of the country, The great question of the present year is Reconstruction, To secure Reconstruction on the basis of justice and freedom is the task which the | party that couquered in the campaigns of 1860 and | 1864 bas now to perform. The report of the Recon- | struction Committee is the complete, and, we may | say, the official declaration of the principles which | the Republican party is bound to carry through, and | in the advocacy of which, we feel confident, the whole | party will soon be a unit, ‘The report begins with adverting briefly to the course tho Committee found it necessary to adopt. They bad been directed by a resolution of Congress to in- quireinto the condition of the Confuderate States, and report whether they were entitled to representation in Congress. The former of these points admitted of no dispute. The South was in a state of utter exhaustion. Congress having failed to provide for the contingency, the duty of the President was obvious. He had no power except to execute the laws of the land and to establish, as far as he could, a system of government, All bis acts were those of a military commander, but no anthority was given him by the law over the sub- ject of reconstruction, On the meeting of Congress in December, the Presl. dent officially announced the organization of local Governments, and urged tho readmission of the late Rebel States. With regard to this recommendation, Congress must either have acted blindly upon the opinion of the President, or proceed to collect for itsell the necessary information, The latter conrse was chosen, Its first duty was to call upon the President for the information in his possession as to what had Leen done. The information, which was not communi- cated until six weeks after the Committee had been in actual session, appeared to the Republican members of the Committee incomplete and unsatisfactory. Under these circumstances, it appeared that but one course remained, viz, to investigate thoroughly and carefully the state of feeling among the people of the Southern States, aud hence to infer whether it was safe to readmit them to Congress. To obtain this information the Committee had recourse to the examination of witnesses whose position had given them the best means of forming an accurate judg- ment, The results of this examination have been heretofore published. The report of the Committes next procecds to examine the claims of the South for readmission to Congress. All discussion of the question whether the recovered States are out of or within the Union is waived, and the report assumes as bayond dispute that the people of the Rebel States had in fact with- draen from the Union and made themselves suljects of another government, The Government of the United States Lad uadoubtedly a right to exact indemnity for the injuries done, and security against their recurrence in the future; otherwise the Govern- ment would be powerless for its own protection. The t Government had equally the duty to protec 020 in the South who bad remained true and loyal. The Committee was unable to fiud in the information | obtained, any satisfactory proof that it was safe to re- | | the Committee ! close of the war, disorganized communitie | valid | ever be officially manipulated. { Any more— adwit any of the seceded States to their former posi- tion in Congress, except, perhaps, the State of Ten- nessee, With the evidence before them, it is the opinion of iat the Rebel States were, at the that cannot be expected to recognize o3 election of men from such com- and that before their admission to pation in the Government Congress must pros such Constitutional or other guarantees as will tend to secure the civil rights of all citizens of the Republic a just equality of reprosentation, pro- tection against claims founded in Rebellion and crime, agd, at least, a temporary restriction of the right of suffrage to men of undoubted loyalty. The Committee, therefore, reaches the conclusion that the so-called Confederate States are not at pres- ent, entitled to representation in the Congress of the United States; that before allowing such respresenta- Congress the tion, adequate security for future peace aud safety | should be required; that this can ouly be found in sach cLanges of the organic law as shall determine the civil rights and privileges of all citizens in all parts of the Republic, shall place repre- sentation on an equitable basis, shall fix stigma upon treason and protect the loyal people against future claims for the expenses incurred in support of rebellion, and for manumitted slaves, together with an express grant in Congress to enforce these pro- vicions, To this end they offer a joint resolution for amending the Constitution, and two several bills ned to carry the same into effeet. The pecilic recommendations submitted to Congress the result of mutual concession, after a were | long and careful comparison of conflicting opinions, aud the final report has received the sigrature of every Republican member of the Committee except Messrs, Washburne and Blow, who were absent, The report is very able, and will occupy a con- #picuons place in the history of the Republican party. Whatever exceptions may be taken to one or another part, the whole will commend itself to the frieuds of the Union as a conclusive and admirable summary of the measures which the majority of the party regard as indispensable for securing the lasting restoration of the Union and the triumph of the priuciples of Justice and Freedom, A NATIONAL BANKRUPT LAW, It is an instructive fact that the repngnance to a National Bankrupt Law is strongest in those commu- nities which are least exposed to loss or injury by its operation, City has just reiterated its prayer to Congress to pass the bill already through the House, though it is certain that many willions of debts due from the interior and West to this City would be sponged out by such an act; whereas the West, as represented in Congress, scems generally averse to such a law, though the West would be relieved by it of the legal obligation to pay many Millions owed thence to the East, In other words: the Creditor interest asks for a Bankrupt Law, while the Debtor interest resists its enactment, We hope and trust that Congress will not adjourn without letting the captive go free. It would give o new spring to Industry and Business if it were this amer settled that the duty imposed by the Consti- tution on Congress of enacting and maintaining a Nutional Bankrupt Law shall no looger be ignored nor evaded. OVE ON We have just read of an Alderman in one of our Southern eiti the invaluable moral, the precise locality is of wo quence. This Alderman has been stealing a considerable amount of the public cash. Nature or art had made bis palms adhesive as well as itching, and he was under a fatal necessity of stealing what- *Nothing extraor- some knowing reader exclaims + done so before,” They have—they ncomprehensible point about eur con dinary,” we hear *Ald have; the Thus, the Chamber of Commerce of our | —Nashville, we think—but, in view of | Alderman is that, having got his plunder together, ke | actually ran away *—as if he bad got enough—as if his ence wonld not allow him to help himself to s if gratitude would not permit him fur- ponge his bex lisis an Alderman of the bigh old Roman days of the Republic, Wm. M. Price *“vamosed the ranche,” anl Swartwout gave a new verb to the lan- guage. What, with painful mortification, we are obliged to confess is, that our Alderman and other city officers, gifted by nature and art with adhesive palws as aforesaid, dou't run away, but continue to stay,and manipulate, and never kuow when they bave got enongh, and, so far from intending to emigrate are they that they buy handsome homesteads and put permanent silver plates on the front doors, and give us the expensive delight of their presence from year to year, or more properly speaking from fiscal year to fiscal year. Asthe Sailor'’s wife in Macbeth *‘mounch'd and monneh'd and mounch'd,” so they suck, and suck, and suck—these civic leeches—and, full as they may be, they have never the grace to drop off. Under these distressing circumstances, we feel that it would be & waste of time and space forus to print the most pathetic remonstrances against defaleation. Let us look at the thing from a common- gense point of view! Lot us take defalca- tion, and picking and stealing for granted! Let us assume that, in consequence of the perversion of hu- man nature, no man who takes charge of the public money can be expected to be honest. Having settled this, it is clear that we need a new system of morals, or at least a new sense of honor. That sense we ex- press in the following formulas WHEN A MAN HAS FILCIED ENOUGIL, IT IS NIS BOUSDEN DUTY TO RUN AwAY, Evasion will give a rounded elegance to his achievement, It will saye the necessity of most ex- pensive Committees of Investigation, It will give us the consolation that the fugitive will never help him- self to a little more, But we do not insist upon this xo much as upon the positive unfairness of not allowing other meritorious wen o chance of plundering in their turn; the selfishness of being so insatiably greedy as not to give place, after repletion, to the empty-bellied and the hungry; the wickedness of ignoring the great sacred priuciplo of rotation in rascality, Because a man is light-fingered, it does not follow that he should be an absolute glutton. Let him fill himself up, and run away! That's our notion of the morality of it! If that honest gentleman, Mr, George H. Purser, for instance, alluded to in our columns on the 29th of May, if he would leave, emigrate, emerge, step ont, depart, exhale, and resign the lucrative business of opening streets to some other equally deserving and needier person, he would be, in some sort, & benefuc- tor, a philanthropist, and a founder of other men's fortunes, If —— —— esq., or the Hon, —— —o Dhad but run away after ** realizing,” instead of running perhaps for Congress, who is there so slow at figures as not to sce that it would bave been money in our municipal poeket, as wellas in the private pock- ets of the tax-payers? But no, tbey don't run, these State, Municipal, Federal appropriators; they stay to brave, with brazen courage, the animadversions of the press and the penalties of the law, If they have grabbod a sufficiency, they turn virtuons, and are much estoemed, especially by their poorer friends and neigh- hors.

Whethe change their theater of operations from the battle-fields, where they were defeated and overthrown, to the halls of Congress, and their representatives scize In‘mn the Govern- ment, which they fought to_destroy 7 Whether the Na- tional Treasury, the anny of the nation, its uavy, its forts and arsenals, its whole civiladministration, its”eredit, ity pesioners, its widows and orphans of those who perished in the war; the public honor, peace and safety, shall all be turned out to the keej of its recent encinies, with- out delay, and without requiring such conditions as in the opinion of Congress the security of the country and its institutions may demand ! Seventh : Thé history of mankind exhibits no example of such madness end folly, The instinet of self-preser- vation protests against it.” The surrender by Gen. Graut to Lee, and by Sherman to Johnston, would have been disasters of loss magnitude, for new armies could have been raised, battles fought, and the Government saved. The anti-coercive "c{, under pretext of avoiding blo shed, allowed the Rebellion to t. form and gather fore but it would be surpassed in infamy by the matchless wickeduess that would surrender the lialls of Cougress to those so recently in rebellion, until proper precautions shall have heen taken to secaro the National faith and the National safery. Eighth: As imu been shown in this report and in the evi- | dence submitted, no proof has been afforded to Cong | of a constituency in any one of the d Confederate States, unless we except the State of T to clect Senators aud Representatives in Congress. No State coustitution or gwendment to a State constitntion has had the sanction of the people. All the so-called legis- | lation of State conventions aud Legislatures has boen had | undermilitary dictation. If the Picsident mag at his will aud under bis own authority, whether as military com- mander or chief Executive, qualify persons to appoint Senators and elect Representatives and empower others to elect and appoint them, he thereby practically controls the orgauization of a legislative department, The constitu- tional form of Governiment is therehy practically destroye and its powers absorbed in the Executive. ~And whtle | your Committee do not for a mament impute to the Presi- dent any such dosign, but cheerfully concede to him the | most patriotic motives, they caunot but look with alarm upon i precedent so franght with danger to the Republic. Ninth: The necessity of providing adequate safegunrds | for the future before restoring the insmrectionary States | to & participation in the direction of public affairs is appa- rent from the bitter hostility to the Government and peo- ple of the United States yet existing throughout the con- quered territory, as proved incontestably by the testic | mony of many witnesses and undisputed facts. enth : The conclusion of your Committee, therefore, that the so-called Confederats States are not, at present to representation in the Congress of the United that before allowing such representation, adequate security for future peace and safety should be requred; that this can only be found in such changes of the vrgauic law as chall determine the civil rights aad privileges of all citizens in all parts of the Kepublic, shall place repres sentation on an_ equitable basis, shall fixa stigma upoa treason, and protect the loyal people aguinst future cliims for the expenses incurred 1n support of rebeilion aud for manumitted slaves, togethier with an express grant in Con- ress to enforce these provisions. ‘To this end they offef a Jjoint resolution for amending the Constitution, and the two several bills designed to carry the saime into effect bg- tore referred to, Bofore closing this report, your Committee beg leave to state that the specific recommendations submitted by tiem are the result of mu ual concession, ufter o loug aud | comparison of conflicting opinious. Upon a ques- f such magnitide, atinitely imporiaut as i is to the future of the Kepublic, it was not to be expected that all should think alike, Sensible of the impertections of the +cheme, your Committee submit it to Congress os the best they could agree upon, in the hope that its imperfece tious may be eured and its deficienicies supplicd by legis! ive wisdom, and that when tinally adopted it muy tend to restore peace and harmony to the whole country, and to l;lnm our Republican wmstitutions on a more stable founda- on, The Theaters. This has been a very choerful week at the theaters, and it will elose cheerfully. * Our Mutual Friead at the Olym- pic bas been somewnat condensed, aud its representation now passes off smootuly and closes at 1L o'clock. This 1s tae nov- ety of the bour, and uo one should miss it who enjoys Dickens. “*It is Never Too Late To Mend” will be acted at Wallaek for the last time to-night, so that whoever has not seen it must make haste to repair the omission. Mr. Dan Bryant will in- augurate the Summer season at that bouse on Mouday. Miss Kosa Cooke is also to appear and sing. There will be a change of bill alao at the Winter Garden; but weanwhile Mr. Brougbam will appear as Dr, Sarage this eveaing, and all his spoctators may learn, and langh while they loarn, how perlions itis to play with fire. We hear by the way that Mr Brougham has a version of ** Our Matua! Friend,” which itis possibie that be will produce in the course of bis engagement | at this theater. *Tho More tuo Merrier.” It can scarcely | fail to be a telling play, and the town would like to see Mr. Brongham as Boftio, The Ravels, Pepita, and the rest of the mirthful and airy spirits at Niblo's, to whom we lately referred in detail, call for no no new remark. They & matinés to, day, and appear again in the evening, which i commendable A matinée will also be given where Miss Helen at tte Broadway Theater, Western will appear in the *French Spy,” performance which thero is uo need to describe, Christy Minstrels also give s Mativée. At Barnum's Museam there will be an eveniog and afternoon performance of ** Uncle ‘Tom's Cabin,” whieh is to be withdrawn atter to-night. Such, at least, is the present understanding of the matter; but Mrs. Howard's Topsy is very good and very popular, and so the play may chance to bo kept ou the bills for another week. The Worrell Sisters and Mr. Letfiogwell bave aftorded a good deal of amusement this week to the habitaes of Wood's The- | ater, where they Lave appeared in an extravaganz:, called “The lavisible Prince.” These Sistors, as we have bofore noted, are pleasing actresses, if tho spectator be not extremely fastidious. They are merry and bright, and they sing and dance, and 80 make their way sgreeably through all the | pleces prosented as this house. The youngest, Miss Jennie Worrell, is endowed with & spirit of wis chief, which specially fits her for burlesque parts, Mr. | Leffogwell, too, enters with much unction fnto the vivaclous humor which reigns upon this stage, and so *' The Invisible Prines” passes off with easo, and pleases the spec: tator. Young Nicolo participates in the performance here—a well known and really remarkable boy-gymuast. Tue aim of Mr. Wood is to make his theater o pleasant place of Summer resort for those who merely wish a transient awusement, and we should judge that he is pursuing a corract and prosperous | policy. At the Old Dowery there will be the customary Saturday night entertainment—plenty of drama, at o reasons- | ble price. Miss Fauny Herriug is still the star at tnis honse, The Fremch comedians give a performance at their new Theater to-night. ** Les Mysteries de L'Ete” will be acted for the beuetit of that brilliaut actress, Mlle. Potel. Yesterday the most interesting trotting contest of the soason came off on the Union Course, L. I, attracting the Iargest attendance seen on that track this Sprivg. It was a mateh between Mr, Simmons's brown Hambletonian stallion George Wilkes and Mr, Relph's famous bay maro Lady Thorn, mile heats,best three io five, in harvess, for 81,000 a side. The celebrity of the two contestauts {nvested this mateh with un. usual interest; Lady Thorn belog the only horse that had ever beaten the world-resowned Dexter. The day was highly propitious, being bright and warm, and the track in splendid order. The betting was unusnally beavy, the mare being the fa- vorite at §1,000 to §400, und these odds were cagesly taken by the friends of the brown stallion. After the fitst heat, the betting changed, and Wilkes became the favorite, the layers of odds at the commencement bei nxions to ** hedge” their monoy, As the subjoined detalls wil show, the brown horse won the match in three straight heats, The Lady Thora party attribute her d to Ler having been amiss the week previous, from u complaint incidental to mares at this season; and there is little doubt that she was not up to the mark, as sho has mado a better time record than was dove yesterday. Sho was driven by ber trainer, Dan Ptifer, while Jobn Crooks was bebiud the brown stallion, SUMMARY. Friday, Juue 8.=Match $100, mlle beat i 23 it Mite. 1 2.2 113 103 to $500. D).
