George Prabody.

Inquiry is made frequently, -who is George Peabody tlie millionaire who is distributing his money by the million for the benefit of our common country '.'" I'or the satisfaction of our readers, we publish the following sketch of him from the '"New American Cyclopedia:" "lie was born in Danvcrs, .Massachusetts, Feb. 13, 17li". His parents were poor, and his early education was acquired in the district schools. At tlie age of 11 iie was placed as clcrk with a grocer in his native town, but loft him when he had attained his lijth year, and after spending year with his grandfather in I licttoni t., went to Newburyport to clerk for his elder brother who had opened a dry goods store there. The store being consumed by fire lie next went with an uncle to Georgetown. 1). 0., where for the following two years the business was conducted in his name, though a minor. Finding himself in danger if he continued in this relation of being responsible for debts he had not contracted, he withdrew from the business in 1814, and became a partner o.r Mr. Klisha Kiggs in the wholesale dry goods trade. Mr. lligps furnishing the necessary capital, and intrusting the management to Mr. Peabody. Tin 11 \t year, the house was removed to Baltimore, where it soon attracted a large business, and ill 1S1'2 branch houses were established in New York and Philadelphia. In 1S27, Mr. l'eabody crossed the Atlantic for the lirst time to buy goods. In 182H, by tlie retirement of Mr. Kiggs, he became senior partner in the House. More than once on his visits to Europe, lie was intrusted witli important negotiations by the state of Maryland, which were invariably conducted with success, fcarly in lS.'lT, he took up his residence permanently in England. In S4c!, lie withdrew from the firm of Peabody, Kiggs & Co., and established himself in Loudon as a merchant and banker. Through his exertions the confidence in American responsibility, which had well nigh failed in the disastrous peiiod of 1837, was maintained, lie rendered repeated and important favors in this respect to tho State of Maryland, which were gratefully acknowledged, but for which he refused any compensation. The house he established in London has been ever since its foundation the headquarters of his countrymen in that city and the center of American news and intelligence. In lSi2 at the bi-centennial anniversary of his native town of Danvers he sent a toast in a sealed envelope, not to be opened till tJie day of the anniversary. That toast was—"Education a debt from the present to future generations." And in order to pay his share of that debt a check for$20,000 was enclosed to be expended in the founding of an Institute, Lyceum, and Library for the town. Ily subsequent gifts that amount has beco increased to $00,000, and an additional $10v000 has been bestowed upon North l)anvers for a branch library. To the first "Griiutcl Expedition' to the Arctic Oc^an, lie contributed $10,000. I11 ltf)G-7 he gave the sum of 15300,000, with a pledge to increase it to $o00,000, to found an Institute in Baltimore for the promotion of science, literature and the fine arts."

resolution WAD adopted

declaring that the prosecution of the Alabama and Shenandoah claims against Great Britain should be prosecuted with the same emphasis and dispatch that characterized the demand of that power for the rendition of Mason and Slidell. Two reports (a majority and minority report) were presented from the Seloct Committee on the New Orleans Tiot. The majority report was accompanied with a bill for the creation of a provisional government for the State: of Louisiana, and the nboljishmeDt of the present one. A lively diacuhsiou took placc upon the question of the present consideration of the bill, it not having been printed, and members having had no timo to examine it.

Eliot, who reported the bill, moved the previous question. The previous question was ordered, and the yeas and uays called upon ordering the main question on tho passage of the bill. The opponents of the bill began to ofFer motions, and matters looked for awhile as if there was to be another full night's filibustering. A motion was made to reconsider the vote seconding the previous question. A motion to lay that motion on the table was negatived by the close vote of yeas 05, nays 06. The motion to reconsider waB then put and negatived—yeas 04, nays 00. The main question was finally ordered by a vote of 85 yeas to 59 nays. Before the vote was taken on the passage of the bill the House adjourned.

TUESDAY, FEBRUARY, 12.

SENATE.—Poland (Had.) of Vermont," offered a resolution instituting an inquiry into the expediency of amending the Constitution so as to limit the service of President to one term of six years tv abolish the office of Vice-president, and to provide for the election of President by the popular vote, doing away with electors. The Bankrupt Bill was passed yeas 22, nays 20. Sumner tried to have it amendsd by providing that no rebels should voluntarily receive its benefits, but failed. In the debate Conness (Had.) of California, declared his indepondenco as a Senator. He was tired of the whip of the Massachusetts leader, and did not mean to allow it to be cracked over his head any more. Doolittle defended the Southern people. Wilson, of Massachusetts, introduced a joint resolution to provide for t^e payment of claims of loyal

persons for supplies furnish to the army. It provides for the appointment of Commissioners, named iu the resolutiou, for each one of the Southern States, who aro .to examine all claims presented, and ascertain whether or not the persons presenting such claims were loyal during tho war. All claims to be presented within six months, and the Commissioners to report to Congress. Tho resolution was referred to the Committee 011 Military Affairs. The Senate took a recess until half-past seven o'clock, but no quorum being prescut in the eveuitig, no business was transacted.

HOUSE.—The

Eliot Louisiana Bill was

taken up. The vote on the main question was considered and that provision of it for the election of a delegate to Congress was stricken out. Two hours debate was then allowed to Democrats, when the bill was passed by a vote of 12 yeas to -IS nays. The Stevens bill to establish military governments in the South was then taken up and speeches made its favor by several Radicals. Without coming to a vote, the House adjourned.

V. KONKSDAY, FKBKUARY 1:!. St.NAi'E.—The House resolution of thanks to the Secretary of War and Quartermaster-general Meigs for the performance of certain services, was indefinitely postponed. The Clerk of the House announced the passage by the House of the bill to set aside the present Government of Louisiana, and to establish in its placc a Provisional Government. A motion was made and agreed to, by a vote of twenty-three to nineteen, to postpone all prior orders, aud take up immediately the Louisiana bill. The bill was accordingly takeu up, but Hendricks, of Indiana, objecting to its consideration it went over until to-morrow under the rules. A bill was passed to puuish persous stealing any article of Government property by a line of $5,000, or imprisonment not less than one year, nor more than ten years or both. The conniittee to whom was referred the House bill to abolish the the office of Superintendent of Public Printing, and providiug for the election of a printer by each branch of Congress for itself, was reported back. An evening session was hold. The Clerk of the House appeared and announced the passage by the House of the bill dividing the Southern States into four districts, and providing for their government by military power under martial law. The bill was read the first time, and went over until to-morrow 011 the objection of McDougal, of California, to its present consideration.

HOUSE.—The

Chair presented the

I certificate of the Governor 01" Ohio, at-'"-tiacr the ratification tlif P."-

amendment ay tne Legislature of Ohio. Chandler, of Michiguu, (liad.) made a speech on Ir.s resolution of inquiry, as to the power of Johnson to nppoint Provisional Governors for the Southern States. His speec-.h was very abusive of the President, and stated tuat if the charges against him were true, he ought to be impeached. This exhibition of indelicacy by one who might be called upon to act as a Judge iu th* trial of the President on articles of impeachment, so shocked the Senate, that Chandler's resolution was laid on the table. The invalid Pension and Postoffice I Appropria tion bills were taken up and passed. The bill to empower the Secretary of the Treasury to delegate to one of his Assistant Secretaries authority to sign in his stead, warrants for repayment of money, was passed. The joint resolution to amend the Constitution so as to make the President ineligible for re-elec-tion, was discussed.

IIouss resumed the con

sideration of the bill for the military government of the Southern States. Boutwell (Rail.) of Massachusetts, argued in support of the bill. Mr. Stevens moved the previous question. Bingham (Rad.) of Ohio, appealed to the House not to second the demaud. The House theu rofuscd, by a vote of 54 yeas to 79 nays, to second the previous question, and the debate was continued. Bingham addressed the House in favor of his own amendment to the bill. Blaine (Rad.) of Maine, moved to recommit the bill to the Judiciary Committee, with instructions to add to it his (Blaiuc's) auiendmcut, anr" on his motion called the previous quenl.011 which was ordered by a vote of '04 yeas to 53 nays. Spauldin-f fll'id 1 if ni.I" •"^voc'» order to nave a lest vote, to lay the bill on the table. The vote on Spaulding's motion resulted iu 3D yeas and 115 nays, a strict party vote. The main question wa» khcu ordered by a vote of 80 to 70 nays. The motion of Blaine was the first to be voted on. Stevcus, being entitled to the floor made a lengthy speech, detailing his personal grievances, and declaring the conduct of the House iu the matter of his original reconstruction bill, to have been uncivil, unjust and indecent. He appealed to the House to pass the present bill without amendment. Blaine's motion to refer was voted down, yeas, 09 nays, 95 and the bill, as modified by Stevens, was passed, yeas, 105 nays, 55. Thus was passed through the House one of the most infamous and unjustifiable measures that ever disgraced a legislative body.

An evening session was held, at which the bill to amend the present Internal Revenue Law was discussed, aud theu actcd upon by sections until adjournment.

The amcudment on which the House insisted, was that to include the members of the Cabinet with other officials subject to appointment and removal by the President. The Eliot Louisiana Bill was read a second time. Sumner gave notice of three amendments he intended to offer. The bill was postponed until the next day, that it with the proposcc'i amendments might be printed—a thing the House refused. The bill to issue notes to take up the compound-interest notes, was passed. A bill authorizing the construction of a tunnel under the Mississippi at St. Louis wa« passed.

HOUSE.—An

attempt failed to pass a

bill to reimburse the loyal States for war expenses (appropriating fifty-five dollars for cacli soldier furnished by State). The bill provided for the issue of five per cent, bonds, not negotiable for twenty years, to the amount of one hundred and fifteen millions of dollars. It was sent to the Ways and Moans Committee. The bill to provide for the establishment and organization of the National Guards in oach State, was reported aud amended. The Tax bill was considered in Committee of the Whole. Ward of Kentucky, proposed to amend by reducing the tax ou distillers from five hundred to one hundred dollars, which gave riso to considerable discussion. A motion to increase the special whisky license tax to one thousand dollars was rejected, and it was finally agreed that the tax should remain at one hundred dollars, as in the present law. Tho elauso of tho bill forbidding gas companies to add the revenue tax to the prioe charged for gas to consumers, after the 80th of April, 1807, was strioken out.

The Military Reconstruction Bill was taken up. Doolittle made a speech vindicating his course in reply to the requejt of tho Wisconsin Legislature to resigu his seat. He concluded by a condemnation of the Military Bill, and closed by saying: "After the hundreds of peaceful propositions which have been introduced and abandoned, tlie majority now proposes to reconstruct with the sword—a power which should not be intrusted to an angel from Heaven."

Salsbury, Davis, of Kentucky, and Co wan opposed tlie bill. Sherman proposed a new amendment, which had been agreed upon by a caucus of Senators, embracing the Military Bill as it passed the House, with the so-called Blaine amendment added. The debato was continued sill night.

HOUSE.—Wentworth,

of Illinois, (Rad)

submitted, as a question of privilege, involving, as he said, the honor, purity aud independence of the House, a long preamble and resolution reciting— "That it has been for some time rumored, aud has at last been asserted in public newspapers, that certain members of the House have been holding private meetings with a view to a corrupt bargain, pledging themselves to act adversely to the report of the Judiciary Committee on the question of impeachment, if unfavorable to the President, and, also, to act adversely to certain other measures pending before the House, to which they had hitherto been favorable, provided that the President do certain things to which lie has hitherto declared himself hostile, and refrain from doing certain other things wlnni. 1.0 li

Eld ridge, of Wisconsin, (Dcm.) wanted the resolution ameuded so as to direct inquiry as to whether the members of the other side had not beeu holding meetings for corrupt purposes, and had not, with corrupt objects, determined to impeach the President. The resolution passed— yeas 80, nays 41—but was subsequently reeonaidcrcd aud referred to a select committee of three. The bill to declare who shall act as President in certain contingencies was passed. The River aud Harbor Bill, appropriating over S4,800,000, was passed. A night session was held for speech making.

SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 17

SENATE.—The

On motion of Sherman, the title of the bill was amended to read, "An act for the more effectual government of the Southern States." At 0:30, Sunday morning, the Senate adjourned.

The following is a synopsis of Slicrmt/n's substitute for the House bill, as it passed the Senate: "The preamble declares that no legal State government, nor adequate protection for life or property, exists in the rebel States of Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Florida, Texas and Arkansas, and that it is necessary that pcace and good order should be enforced until loyal und republican governments can be legally established. "The first section divides the State* named into five military districts, as in the original bill.

"Section four provides that all persons arrested shall be tried without unnecessary delay. No cruel or unusual punishment shall be inflicted, and no sentence affecting life or liberty be executed until approved by the commander of the district.

Section five provides that when the people of any one of said States shall have formed a constitution and government, iu couformity with the Constitution of the United Suites 111 all respects, framed by a convention of delegates elected by male citizens of tsaid State twenty-one years old and upward, of whatever race, color or previous condition, who have been resident in said State for one year previous to the day of such elections, except such as may be disfranchised for participation iu the rebellion, or for felony at common law, aud when such Constitution shall provide that the elective trauchise shall be enjoyed by all such persons as have the qualifications herein stated for electors of delegates, and when such
