That the 11 States lately in rebellion may form valid State Governments in the following manner: BEC. 2 The State Governmeots now existing, though formed in the midst of martial law, and though in mauy instances their constitations were adopted under duress and nof m ted to the people for ratitieation, are bereby acknowledged us valid Governments for municipal purposes.

Roussear addressed the House, argning that it was the fault of the Radical majority that the insurgent States were 0ot now reconstructed, and the country restored to peace and prosperity. “The majority had bad the matter in | the palm of their hands for the last’seven months, but Lad done nothing. Before Congress met, the Speaker had laid down the rule by which the House was to be governed. Departivg from the policy of restoration laid down by Presideat Lincoln and Président Joknson, he was the first to start the complaint against President Johnson for not having called Congress together. He argued that it M Coliax, aud the leading members of the Kepublican party, had, during 1ast Summer, deemed it 8o desirable that | Congress should bo convened, he and m( should have made that opinion known to the President and the country, and the speaker sliould bave remained bere for that po instead of going on a visit to Brighum Young and his ladies and gathering up materials for his splendid lecture, But nou these gentlemen had asked the President to call Congress together. ‘The speaker bad re- cently published a letier asserting that the day ufter the murder of President Lincolo he had made such’ a sugges- tion, and that President Johnsou told him the responsi- bilitles of the Presidency had been so saddenly thrown on him thut he had not thought of the matter. ‘That was the first aud last that any one had heard of a desire on the part of Speaker Colfax to have Congross convened. He had t expressed the mildest or most modest sort of such de- sire to the President, and yet the first thing he did when he came back was to cump?‘un that the President bad got called Congress together. Mr. Rousseau passed on to speak of the assault made some weeks since on the Presi- dent by Mr. Ingersoll, and said that the Linguage made use ofon that oc was unworthy to be uttered oa the floor of the House, th ident being denounced as a dema- gozue, and all who supported his poliey as lickspittles and | sycophants. He hurled back such epithets in the teeth of | | out of it in that way, Lim who uttered them, and who had ¢ nothing during the war but stay at home and look after the officers. Mr. Farnsworth called attention to the fact that Mr. Lagepsoll was obssiv Mr. RoUsSEAU said he was_awaro of that, but that was not his (Roussean’s) fault. If he was not hero now he would be buck, and he (Rousseau) was not xolng 0 leave, He would not #ay that he * would bo responsible to bim lere or elsewhere.” He did not seck to be beld respousi- ble out the House, But if the gentleman (Inger- soll) were here, he (Rousseau) would use stronger terms than he would use in his absence. Ho would say, how- ever, to begin with, that when the gentleman stigmatized those who sustained the President's policy as sycophants and lick-spittles, who were seeking for gome contemptible office, that was false, was unjust to the President, and un just to bis friends, and unjust to the gentleman from Ili= 1018 himsel rant, Sherman and Thomas were luprurl- ers of the President, and would the gentleman tell them that they were lick-spittles? The circumstance that pro- voked the passion and the unseemly deportment of the gentleman from Illinois, was the removal of one of his friends from @ contemptible office in Peoria, the editor of o newspaper there, Mr. Rovssear went on to argue that the adoption by he Republican party of a liberal, mauly and just policy at the commencement of Congress wuulx]y Lave given that party alease of power the next 30 ;-nnu, and that eveli now, so convineed were the leaders of that party that their course would not be disapproved by the people that they would ot wljourn tho session without admitting Tennessee, They would have to eat their words in that particular. He predicted that Mr. Speaker Colfax would tell them that they dare not go back to their constituency without doing that just, proper and legal thing. Mr. FARQUIAR Jml.p interrupted Lim to state that Mr. Speaker Colfax hiad been, since the commencement of the session, in favor of adwitting the loyal members from Tennessee. 3 Mr. ROUSSEAU was aware that that was said by the Speaker and other Radical meinbers, and that was the pro- gramme, but still the loyal members from 'l'(-nmm:-v:] 3\4] asked the not heen admitted. ‘-inm'n Elizabeth had once Speaker of the Engl i Parliament what that body had wassed, and the reply was * Seven weeks, your Majesty. % S0 this Congress, it asked the same question, would have to answer * Seven mouths,” for it had done nothing but pass a Frecdwan’s Bureau bill, and some such measures. Mr. PRIcE sent up to the Clerk’s desk and had read a letter from Col. Stokes of Tenncssee, to his coustituents, in which he took the ground that Congress was right i wt admitting representatives from Tennessee and the o insurgent States. He said he would place that de- claration of one who knew the feelings of the peopl the South, made, too, in opposition to his own interests, against the opiuions of the member from Kentueky. Mr. GRISNELL (Iowa) got leave to make a personal ex- thmiuu i reference to some refleetions upon him made by Mr. Rousscave He said that if he were the President and such o speech were made in his defense, he would say: **God save me from such an unmauly, ncoberent, Dbrainless defender, cqual in virtue, in civil life, as in military.” In what volume was the gentleman’s military history to be found 7 ‘The reputation he got in Kentucky was oarned by sending back negroes across the Ohio or Mississippt lII’vur. wiio had swum the river for their lib- W here had the gentleman been in the great battles away from them.

Mr. Roussean, after -ni(‘nnguluu pm:tion several times, had got into the vicinity of r. Grinnele, and it might | reasonably be expected that, smarting under the taunts and sneers so_lavishly directed at him, he would take a sammary mode of dealing with the member from lowa, but at this time Mr. Banks rose and made the point of order that the gentleman from had not, in obtaining Jeave to make s personal explauation, obtaitied any right to violate the rules of debate, which point of order the Speaker sustained, notifying Mr. Grinnel that he must ced in onder, Mr. Roussgau intimated that if the Speaker would not protect him, he would protect himself. Mr. GRINNELL remarked that if the gentleman would deny that he had called & me; of the House a mis- creant he would have nothing further to sy, Mr. Rovsseau denied that he had called Mr. S misereant, but admitted saying that & man who wonld put himself between the contending factions of the country to keep them apart was a misercant. Mr. GRINN#LL remarked, suceringly, that a fellow who had had & quarrel with a colored barber might try to get erty. of the war?—150 miles Gen, Grant or any general The gentleman bad demngogne, A Rousseav renewed the intimation that if the Speaker would not protect him, he would protect himself. I'he SPEAKER informed Mr. Grinnell that if he again violated the rules of debate, he would call him to order. Mr. GuIsNeLL concluded by disavowing any unfriend- Jiness toward the gentleman from Kentueky of Lis State. [Laughter.] Mr. Roussi Mr. © obtained the floor, and made a temperate statement to the House in reference to his position in a former debate on the subject of an outrage committed by an agent of the Freedmen's Bureau on a gentleman i Kentucky and his wife and danghter. He would resent anything that the gentieman from Towa might say, becauss fie bad understood that gentleman to say that he conld not be insulted, and with such o man be could bave no guarrel. . GRINNELL (in bis seat)—No, Sir; I never said that.y Mr. RoussEAU explained the avecdote about the rabbit, by stating that it was the custom of the men in camp, whenever they star! o rabbit, to surround it and have great excitement 1a catehing it; and that on one occasion when be had retarned to camp, afte ort absence, the men greeted him as he went along, which induced a wag of & soldier to sy, in reference to the excitement, that it was either a rabbit_or Gen. Rousseau. He thauked God that his name had been honorably linked with those who en uv arns in defence of their country. He ex- pressed the hope that this would be the last connection be would have with the gentleman from Iowa, and he would not have occasion to recur to thematter. Whatever honor or eredit that gentleman (Griunell) might take to himselt out of the watter he was weleome to. CLAIMS AGAINST VENEZUELA.

Mr. Boutwell's res- olution to day was intended to prevent anticipated action by the President, and, as such, was resisted by the Demo- crats, who are desirous of leaving the President nntram- meled, and to secure Davis's liberation. The Republicans voted s0lid with Boutwell—105 Yeas to 19 Nays—that while the charge of conspiracy in the murder of President Lincoln still stands indorsed by President Jobnson, ho should not be releaged. A meoting of Messrs. O'Conor and Pratt of counsy for Jeff. Davis, and Judge Underwood, was held at the Attorney-General's office to-day. argue the point in regard to bail. Judge Underwood informed them that he had no doubt it was a bailable offcnse, but that as Davis was & prisoner in a United States fort, and under military jurisdiction, and had nevee been within the jurisdiction of his court, he eould not take any cognizance of the question at present.
