E. H.

HilI of Georgia, is writing a se

ries of letters on the political situation of the South, which are being extensively copied and eulogized by the ex-rebel organs in that part of tho country. The Atlanta

New Era,

however, does not re

gard them very favorably. It says "Hon. B. H. Hill's letters remind us of a big boy throwing spit balls against the wind If be continues this kind of amusement much longer, be will find himself in the same grave with the Constitution that was."

If the meaning of the acts passed by Congress in March last, having for thoir object provisions for the more officient government of tho Rebel States, was left open to misconstruction by a shrewd lawyer, it will be exceedingly difficult for him to do the same by the bill passed by Congress on Saturday. This last enactment -is plain and to the point. The man who runs may read as be runs, and comprehend, unless, i'orsootb, he be a fool or a knavo, and of either class will they be who attempt a construction which shall favor the rebel element in tho South. No sensible person, having tho interests of tho couutry at heart, ever doubted the intent of the Reconstruction acts. It was reserved for traitors and high officials at Washington to shut their eyes to the truth, and aim to pervert what was patent to all loyal people as the right mode of procedure in restoring peace to the country.

Had it not Veen for tho encouragement givon tho rebellious heart, still taatiag strongly in the South, by tho President and his Attorney-General, the process of reconstruction would not have been neces sary for Congress to re-assemble this month. As it was, the opinion of air. Star* bery tnado it an absolute necessity that Congress should convene and settle the matter, by explaining, to the satisfaction of loyalists and the discomfeiture of the disloyal, the true meaning of acts as passed in March. In doing this,it has laid down the law in a manner which cannot b« misapprehended, and it is probable

'SSlg™flf8

that Mr. Stanbery will not be troubled by the President or by such displaced rebel officials as Governor Wells and Mayor Monroe, for an "opinion" respecting its true in tentions.

This bill declares that whan Congress passed the acts of last March, it then considered the governments existing in certain Rebel States as illegal, and that they were, if continued, to be subject in all respects to the military commanders of the respective districts, and to tho paramount authority of Congress. This is certainly plain enough for the most thickskulled head.

Section second empowers the command der of any district, subject to the disapproval of General Grant, to remove or suspend for cause, any official acting un

der these governments, and to detail some competent officer or soldier of the army, or appoint some other person to perform the duties of the office vacated.

Section third invests the General of the armies of the United States with all the powers of suspension, removal, appointment and detaching granted the district commanders.

Section fourth confirms jthe action of Generals Sheridan, Sickles, Pope, Scbofleld and Ord in all that they have already done in removing disobedient factions and rebellious officials, and it makes it their imperative duty to remove all who are disloyal, or who shall use their influence to thwart the purpose of the acts of reconstruction. In this Stanbery's "opinion" has not benefitted his friends to a very large extent, In the remaining sections it is provided that no person shall be registered unless the registering board shall decide him entitled thereto also, that no person who held any executivo, judicial or civil office prior to, or at tho commencement of the Rebellion, and who afterwards engaged in it, or gave it aid or comfort, is entitled to bo registered or to vote. The time for registration is extended to the first of October, and the boards ars required to assemble fourteen days before election, to revise and purge their lists of all persons who may have been improperly registered.

It is also explicitly stated that no person shall at any time be entitled to vote or registration on pardon or amnesty obtained from the President, the simple fact of his having such a document or documents in his pocket being irrefragible proof that he is utterly disqualified by reason of taint. This will go hard with Toombs and others of his ilk, who are hoping to resurrect their old party.

Congress has acted promptly, wisely and well, and if the South can

The Democratic party, what there is left of it, is spoiling for a netf political issue. It fought the negro until he has become a voter, and now there is a painful eagerness on the p&t of all its members to switch ofT to something else. ThoChicago

king tho negro on board, but the rest of the crew would not hear to it. All in vain were its entreaties, threats and wurniugs, and now at length it begins to talk of the organization of a third party. Despairing of ever being able to bring the leaky old craft to port it seems inclined to leave it to its fate, but it will not, for the meanness which is the life of the party is also of its Chicago organ, and this bond of sympathy will hold them together until tbey both go to the bottom.

ii Washington,

The communication was referred, and the Secretary called on for copies of the corespondence.

On motion of Mr. Washburne, of Wisconsin, the Court of Claims asked a list of its judgements since March 30th, 1866, for the President and Vice President of the United States, in the States to be formed out of the Territories included within the late Confederate States except Tennessee. Referred to the Commitee on Reconstruction.

On motion of Mr. Cobb, the President was requested to communicate any nformation received at the departments touching the organization parties for tbe real or pretended purpose of avenging the death of Maximilian, or interfering with Mexican again, and whether any measures are taken to prevent such organization or to prevent the sailing of such expedition.

Mr. Julian asked leave to offer the following Resolved, That the doctrine avowed bv the President of the United States, in bis message to Congress, of the 15th inst., that the abrogation of the rebel States by the nation, and the refusal to pay their debts incurred prior to the late rebellion, is at war with the principles of international law, and a deliberate.stab of tbe national credit, abhorrent to every sentiment of loyalty, and well pleasing only to the vanquished traitors, to whose agency the governments of said States were overthrown and discharged.

Mr. Burr objected. safe-JO Mr- Julian moved to suspend the rules which carried, and under the operation of the previous question, the resolutions were adopted by a strict party vote. Action was taken on several messages from the Senate.

The House non-concurred in the amendment to the act in relation to tbe reeorted deserters, and asked a Committee of Conference.

The Senate bill for the further securities of equal rights, in the District of Columbia was slightly amended and referred to the Judiciary Committee with leave to report at auy time.

Mr. Sellage asked leave to offer a preamble and resolution reciting the report and organization of expeditsons agbinst Mexico, and requesting the President to issue a proclamation requiring all proper officers of tbe United States to prevent tbem. Referred to the Committee on Foreign affairs.

Nr. Covode offered a question of provilege to the following preamble and resolution

Whereas, Androw Johnson, President of the Ucited Statee, did on the Fourth day of Suly, 1867, at the request of ihe Counsel of John H. Surratt, caused to be issued to Stephen F. Cameron, of the rebel army, and one of the most notorious xiolators of the laws of war, a full pardon for all his crimes, in order that hi9 credibility might be increased as a witness to aid in the exculpating of Surratt, from participation in the murder of Lincoln, thus showing sympathy with the men|who murdered the President, therefore, be it

Resolved, That the Judiciary Committee be instructed to examine into the foregoing and charge, and report the evidence to the House the first week of the next Mssion, together with till the evidence taken in the impeachment case.— After debate the resolution was agreed to and the preamble rejected.

Adjourned. i-I I Senate —Mr. Wilson introduced a resolution, proposing the following amendment to the Constitution of the United States. No distinctton shall be made by the United States, nor by any State against citizens on their civil or political rights on account of race, color or previous condition. Ordered to be printed and lie on the table.

Mr. Sumner called up tho bill introduced by- him yesterday providing that in the District of Columbia no person shall be disqualified from holding any office on account of race or color.

Mr. Harland said he did not believe Congress had authority to approint a Commission to make aj treaty, and should move at the proper time to amend tbe bill by providing that the President shall appoint a Commission to make a treaty.

Mr. Sherman thought the only true solution for the Indian difficulties was to absorb the Indians in the general population.

Mr. Pomeroy did not believe it possible to put all the Indians on one reservation or on two. It would lead to interminahle wars between the tribes. He thought it would do to select several reservations and locate different trsbes on them. He coincided with Sherman's views.

Mr. Howard favored the appointment of the Commission to confer with the Indians as friends and with a view to brings ing hostilities to a close. He did not believe it possible to civilize the Indians. He did not tbink the Senate ought io attempt to settle tho whole Indian problem. He thought it ought to legislate toward hostile bands with a view of putting an end to the war. It would be time enough next winter to discuss tho larger problem of the disposition of all the Iudians.

Mr. Morrill condemned the Indian policy of the Government as unjust and oppressive, teoding only to rob tbe Indians of their homes and land. It would be impossible to absorb the Indians into the white population. That meant nothing but extermination. He appealed to the Senate to pas3 a law that would not be a rope of sand to make an argument, and stand by it.

Mr. Thayer did not advocate the extermination of the Indians. No matter who was to blame for the tdifficulties existing it was tbe duty of Congress to secure peace if possible. It would be better to spend a million now than gve hundred millions a year henca. The people of the border were not in favor of war. Speaking in behalf of every class of community on the border. He would say nothing was so abhorrent us an Indian war.— Even thieves and gamblers dreaded au Indian war.

A message was received from tbe House announcing tbe nonconourrence on the bill for the relief of deserters, and asking a Committee of Conference..

The Senate adhered to itf amendment and the House must recede from its disagreement or the bill failsd.

Pending the consideration of the Indian bill, the Senate adjourned.

Sketch or His Dishonorable Life

,a*sRSs:ni*wt

Washington, D. C., July 16. it 4W? The evidence in the Surratt case to-day was quite important.

The register at the Webster House, Canandaigua, was again brought forward, and another effort made to introduce it as evidenoe, but the Judge declined a second time to allow it to appear in %ny form.

Defense proved that the signature "John Harrison," under date April 16th, 1865, was io the handwriting of Surratt, whioh no one has denied. The ground of the objection by the prosecution is that the name might have been put there &ny_ time within four or five months after tbe assassination, and while Surratt was in Canada.

The proprietor of the hotol says the book might easily have been taken awny for a week or two, and he is under the impression that it was missing once for some time.

The defense is unable to find anybody who saw the prisoner in Canandaigua on the day named in the book. Tbe witness Canlan was called to impeach tho evidence of Weichman. He is a strong Catholic, and has been prominent in the effort to enlist the sympathies of all Catholics here in Surratt's favor. During the rebellion he was a rebel sympathizer. He told his story in a very glib manner today, but impeached himself before he got through by saying that the conversation with Weichman, in whieh thit person made suoh important statements, took place after the conspiracy trial, and that he was prevented for that reason from laying them before the defense in that trial, while the fact is that Weichman left the city two weeks before the close of that case and did not return for-several months.

The witness Matthews was called to prove the contents of the Booth letter to the Intelligencer, delivered to him early on the evening of the assassination, and by him read and burned that night. The decision as to the admission of this evid* ence was reserved till morning. Matthews is in a fair way to get himself into trou-. ble if allowed to proceed. He was examined two years ago, while the conspiracy trial was in progress, and profeseed then to know so little about affairs that it was not deemed worth while to call him. He new wants to swear that the Booth letter was Bigned by four persons. Tben he swore it bore the signature of Booth only. Now he declares that the document was in the form, of a contract or article of agreement. Then he said it was merely a bombastic and rhetorical letter..

The most important feature of the day's proceeding was the evidence of Mr. Camero, called to impeach the testimony of Surgeon McMillian, of tho vessel on which Surratt escaped to Europe, and the most important fact in relation to this witness is that he was pardoned by the President on the 4th inst., at the intercession of Mr. Bradley, the prisoner's counsel, that he might be used as a witness for Surratt. This fact has been known for some days and was brought out in the cross-examination to day.

Cameron is a Maryland rebel, wbo studied for the ministry, reuived deacon's orders* ran the blockade, and entered the Southern service in the summer of 1871, remaining persistent and indefatigable rebel till the end of tbe war. He was a Protestant, and s£ys he turned Catbulic out of gratitude to the Pope for recognizing the Confederacy. Ho held a chaplain's commission and seems to have been active in doing any dirty work that came to hand, using his chaplain's position as an aid and shield from first to last. He was a notorious blockade runner, belonged to Morgan's guerrillaE, and furnished tbe St. Albans raiders and robbers with their commissions. He has been in the Old Capital Prison, and while in Europe, wrote articles bolstering up the rebel cause. He has, it is understood, been indicted for stealing, and takes such an interest in getting Surratt clear, that since his return to the United States six weeks ago, he has not been to see his wife and children who live but ninety milos away, and whom, he has not met for nearly four years. Yet, this man, coming under one of the excepted clauses of the amnesty proclamation, has been pardoned by the President since the defense began presenting their cue, solely that he might appear as a witness against the Government. The greater part of his testimony was a direct contradiction of that given by Surgeon McMillian, and no one but rebel sympathisers will believo a word he has said.
