On the principle proclaimed by Jetfer- Son, that error was not to be Jeared so lon, truth was lett free to combat tt, the pernicious ideas and dangerous policly maintained by the Tepublican party might be looked upon without apprehension and, Indeed, welcomed to Wwe great arena of debate, REFERMING TO THE ATTACK MADE BY SENATOR IN- Gattis, Some time ago, upon the late Generals McClellan and Hancock, Mr. Voorhees reviewed the services of the two generals during the war, and dwelt upon what he alleged was the injustice with Witch Meciellan Was treated because he was a democrat. Mr, Voornees declared that at Ante. tam MeClelian saved the Unlon, He spose of Gen, Pope as “vapid” “and” incompetent, abd denominated those who now assali tne eimories and records of McCiellan and Hancock as “clamorous Klues and other ignoble scavenger bird;.”| Senator Voorhees then reviewed the ul tory of reconstruction and denounced the kepub- lean administration of Southern state govern- ments. He justified the South for Its refusal to affiliate with the republican party, saying us Well might the frontier setUements be expected Lo wel- come auother Invasion of Lomahawks and scalping Kulves. lie could see notuing to Wonuer at i tbe 75,000 democratic majority given in Louistaua but @ Tew day's ago. ‘These peopie Were alarmed at the Possibility of a return to power of the party and the men Who lad robbed Lhem anu leit them over- burdened With debt. His oaly wonder was that the vole Was not unauimeus. PROSPEROUS CONDITION OF THE SOUTH. Mr. Voorhees said let the present prosperous con- dition of the South answer the partisan charges made against that section, He quoted statistics showing the miles of new raliroad coustructed, the factories estabilsued, &c., during Ute past ten. Years, aud said that capital “does not flow into a Tegion where crime and lawlessness prevall. He Tecited figures showing the enormous industrial growth of the South in the last ten years, and added that peace, law, order, and prosperity prevail all throug that'section! THE VERDICT IN NOVEMBER, 2:15 p. m.—Mr. Voorhees closed a very eloquent And impassioned speech with the prediction that the veruict of the American people in November Bext would be that there had been honest, capable government for the last four years, abd that it should be continued, THE RAILROAD LAND FORFEITURE BILL. ‘The conference report on the bill for the con- ference of American nations was non-concurred 4m, and then the railroad forfeiture bill was Laken up for consideration, House of Representatives, Mr. Lanham (Texas) presented ue conference report on a bill for the rellef of a postmaster for the loss of certain postal funds.

MR. BYNUM ON THE DANGERS OF THE SCRPLUS. Mr. Bynum (Ind.), referring to the surplus, sald that the withdrawal of so large asum of mouey from the channels of trade for any longer period of time would result in a contraction of the cur- rency which would swallow up in bankruptcy and ruin our most enterprising business nen. Congress could not longer escape the responsi bility which rested upon it without arousing the Indinatlon of an oppressed people. ‘The time had passed when the House could refuse to con- sider a measure for the reduction of tax- aiion; the Ume had come when it must meet’ the question fairly and honestly, ‘The bill presented did not meet with his unqual ified approval. He believed that duties on im- ports should be levied aiid collected at all times to meet the current, ordinary expenses of the Gov- ernment, and that any extraoruinary expenses uld be met by a resort to internal taxes, Be- heving this to be correct, he woud maintain the Present internal-revenué system of taxation until tue last vbugalon Of Une war Was dischal But, mindful of the diversified interests of ‘the country, he was willing to come t@ the considera tion of the Uiil in A SPIKIT OF CONCESSION AND COMPROMISE and join in the construction of a measure which yielded something to the productions of ,every locauity. At present, the law fixing the duties on imports was Guerous, it had” been. framed isa spite ot selfishness, He advocated a reduction of duties on the material upon Wuich the laborers of the country worked. He advocated such a reduction as would give larger markets in which manufac turers could sell thetr products, H- admitted that ‘Wages had Increased under @ protective tariff, but he dented that this Was on account of the tariff, beeause the same increase had taken piace i Great Britain under free trade. ‘The couutry bad grown great but not by reason of protection but in spite of protection. He argued that ‘THR PRICE OF LABOR ‘was regulated by the law of supply and demand and not by protective tariff. The great trouble ‘with the country Was the Want of a market. Tear down the wall that had been built around the coast; give American labor a chance to compete ‘with foreign labor, and 1t could take care of itself. It needed Do ouer proveciion. [Applause on dem- Ocratic side). He controverted the claim that a ve tai Was for the benefltot Ainerican DOr. In support of his position, he said that a the past ten years the United ‘States has im $162,000,000° of colton goods more than it had” ex; ‘American labor had been $163,000,000 of cotton goods, During the same period the imports of woolen fonds had exceeded ‘the exports by $50,000,000. ie American work- men had been SETURL TOUTE oenioe aa was con. tained in the S teen fn the chuct side talked seal pat Awerivan labor.
