a lonesome aud loathesome existence

The dominant party always claimed in
fallibility, as well as the right to mould
.and shapo ideas for those that dared to
dissent from tboir political dogmas.
This was demonstrated in the great
political contest in 1860; and immedi
ately following that memorable - elec
tion of November, 1860, hot and hur
ried was the canvass for secession, and,!
in many instances, woe to him that
claimed the privilege to think ere ho
leaped. If yon hesitated or doubted
the^JCpedicncy and propriety of imme
diate secession, yon were a traitor, a
coward, or a sympathizer with Black
?Republicans; nor has that spirit ceased j
iiii’devclop itself among us up to this
good hour, though conquered, overrun
and bereft of our former glory and
prjdc as a people. But in heaven’s
name, tonrvo. wo not atoned sufficiently
j for our errors and blindness to induce
us to exercise a little tolerance and
i forbearance, especially with our South
ern brethren who have been to the
, manor born. Let us bo wise by ini
’ proving upon former political blunders
that we may yet become a united, free,
prosperous and happy peoplo. It was
political intolerance that rent asunder
the Amphyctonie Council or congress
of ancient Greece. It was this that!
whipped Hannibal, the conqueror of
Rome. For eleven years Hanno. in 1
the Carthaginian Senate, raised a po-|
litical storm that broke in fury upon
Hannibal, and swept away ‘ the last
, vestige of Carthaginian prowess and
glory. It was this that undermined the 1
proud fabric of republican Rome, by
arraying the patricians against the plc
bians, and afterwards dividing the citi
zens of Rome under 1‘ompcy, Cn'sar
and Annumv : nor ceased the strife till
^.lioine was laid iu tlio mausoleum of
S nations. N-or is history silent upon the
, miseries and sufferings of modern Seo
; tia, the land of Wallace and Bruce,
whom political intolerance forced to
draw the battle blade, as they felt, in
freedom’s cause. Ireland, too. unhap
py Ireland, has long and painfully felt
and realized what political intolerance
means ; and the same may npproprinte
’ ly he said of France, Spain, Mexico and
the South American States. Alas! of
what nation or people may it not be
said. It would seem from a survey of
V nations past and present, that‘some
dread fatality is inherent in the people,
impelling them to national suicide ; re
joicing while digging their own graves

Washington, January 14.
HOUSE.
-A bill was introduced, and referred
to the Committee on Ways and Means,
to repeal so much of the Internal Rev
enue act, as imposes a tax on unmanu
factured cotton.
Mr Loan, of Missouri, delivered a
speech on Mr. Kelso’s resolution im
peaching the president, in which he
made the hsunl charges of usurpation
etc., indulged in by Radical orators.
Mr. Cooli. of Illinois, reported from
the Committee on the Judiciary a bill
amending that portion of the law ap
proved February 24,1804. which author
izes the Secretary of War to appoint
Commissioners in each of the loyal
slave States to allow compensation to
the owners of colored volunteers, so
as to suspend the powers and compensa
tion of said Commissioners. Passed.
A resolution was adopted declaring
it to be the duty of the Government, in
giving effect to the manifest wish of
the nation, by declaring against the
further importation of coolies in this
hemisphere or in the adjacent Islands.
The Nebraska bill was then taken up
and discussed at length. The vote on
it will be taken to-morrow.
HOUSE.
The first business in order being the
call ofStatesfor bills and Joint Resolu
tions, the following were presented:
“A hill declaring the fortihire of cer
tain privileges of citizenship for acts of
Rebellion against the United States and
providing for the restoration of those
privileges in certain cases.” Referred
to Committee on the Judiciary; also “a
l»511 f^ r*:*r*i ___i...
in the States lately in rebellion.” Referr
ed to the Committee on Reconstruction.
SENATE.
This body was engaged in the discus
sion of a bill to regulate the tenner of
office,- during the day, and adjourned
without a vote.
Mr. Ramsey presented a petition ask
ing for an appropriation for the im
provement of the Mississippi,‘ which
was referred to the Committee on Com
merce.
Mr. Howe, presented a petition for
the reconstruction of the Rebel States
on a basis of cquel rights. Referred to
thcCominittce on Reconstruction.
Several petitions wore presented, ur
ging the passage of the Tariff bill.
Lo. Ttif, Rook Negro.—The Meridian
Messenger says: On Saturday, the
Selma train brought here over oiie hun
dred negroes, men, women and chil
dren, gathered in the Canebrake region
of Alabama, on the route to the Deer
Creek country to work on plantations.
For some reason, they laid over here
all Sunday. We were struck with tlie
diffot'ence twixt now and then. In the
old time, when negroes were on the
move they were well clad. Many oi
those we saw here on Sunday were
poorly clad. They are going into the
deep recess of the river bottom, and,
we suspect, there will be but poor
opportunities to improve them intel
lectually. Will the school marms brave
swamp fever to follow them to then
new homes in the dank bottoms of the
Mississippi ?
Repudiation.—The Richmond Times,
says : “We do not know that the man
tle of prophesy has ever fallen upon us,
but wre venture a prediction. Itis this :
That signs of a desire to repudiate the
national debt will appear in the North
loug before they do here, although the
debt is more theirs than ours. And we
venture the further prediction that, as
soon as the Northern people have fully
recovered from the excitement caused
by the Radical lies of the last election,
we shall begin to hear growls about
heavy taxation. The man then who
will wipe out taxation soonest (even
by repudiation), will be the favorite.
BO?"Referring' to the repeal of (lie
• amnesty clause," the Xew York Her
ald says:
‘'We cannot perceive that it amounts
to anything more than an expression ot
the wishes of the two houses in the
matter, because, the constitution ex
pressly confers upon the president the
‘power to grant reprieves ami pardons
for offenses committed against the
United States.' We presume that the
object of the hill is a remonstrance
from congress to the president, for fear
that otherwise lie might be persuaded
to follow the advice of Greeley in grant
ing a universal amnesty, it is only a
hill to head off Greeley,”
Good, If True.—It is said that the
Ohio Legislature will fail to approve
the Constitutional Amendment. It
seems that, by some accident, a straight
Johnson man was chosen in some
county, who will wield power enough
to defeat the passage of the measure.
Such is the story current in Washing
ton ; whether weltfounded or not wc
cannot determine. The seat of such a
man will surely be contested, and there
is an end ofhim.
Singular Charge.—The Brownsville
Ranehcro tells an amusing story of a
charge by a cow upon the fortifications
of "heroic Matainoros.” Some wags
of Cortinas' command caught the cow
and dressing her up in a fantastic man
ner, in raw ludes, old tin pans ami
sheet iron, Started her off at the top o
! her speed toward the city. With f
noise like thunder, she rushed madh
to tlic very ditch of the works, wliei
SaxtaXdo's braves, -thinking by tin
j clatter that a brigade 6f cavalry wen
i charging the fort, tired a few shots, am
| deserting their guns, lied iugiorioush
to the town plaza, it was several hour
before they could be led back to the
! fort,

, St. Louis Xew Years, for a public sub
] scription of fifty thousand dollars foi

who is represented to be in straightened
circumstances, though wealthy befori

atirThe committee in charge of tin

necessary for Congress to sit every d»\

to get through with the necessary b-gis

W asiiikoton, Jnnnnry 14.—Associ-i
alb Justice Field to-day delivered thej
opinion of the United States Supreme i
Court in the Missouri Test Oath case.
John A Cummins, a Homan Catholic
priest, w ho was indicted for preaching'
and teaching without taking the oath
prescribed by the Constitution of that
Slate, being the plaintiff in error. The I
Court decides the test oath uneonstitu-,
fional in this case, being in the nature i
of a punishment without trial, and its!
! character ex post facto, and as a hill of:
; attainder. The judgment of the Court
; below is reversed, with directions that j
j (lie plaintiff shall depart without delay. j
j Associate Justice Field has alsode-!
| livered an opinion of the Court in the ,
I cases, Garland and Marr. who, having |
taken a part in the rebellion, ask to he i
j readmitted to practice. The Court held.1
! that as the statute imposes a punish
ment, which may not he punishable at;
j the time the offence was committed, it
| is, in its nature ex post faet6 law', and
that attorneys arc not officers of the
United States, though they arc officers
of the Court, and hold their offices dur
ing good behavior, and that tho Court
| is not the register of (lie edicts of any
other power. The applicants obtained
a pardon from the President, which re
lieves them from the consequences of
the offence, and makos them citizens in
the view' of the law, what they were
before the offense was committed, for
Congress cannot limit the prerogative
of mercy, neither can it be fettered by
legislative restriction. Therefore it
followed that the prayers of the peti
! Honors must be granted. The rule
| which requires attorneys to take the
■ test oath must be rescinded, and the
; order is made accordingly. Associate
| Justice Miller, for himself, Chief Jus
; ti’cc Chase, and Associates "Wayne and
Davis read a dissenting opinion,
i The Committee on Territories have
j instructed Mr. Ashley to report his
] amendment to the bill to “re-establish
j a Civil Government in North Carolina,”
! as a substitute for Stevens’, now' before
the House.
The President has nominated Senator
Cowan, of Pennsylvania, as Minister
to Austria. His term in the Senate ex
pires on the 4th of March next.

They are chiefly bound for Florida,
