In the Senate, yesterday, a communication from the Secretary of War, relative to the constitutionality f the Maryland apprentice system, was referred to the Judiciary Committee Colorado asked to be permitted to come Into the Union.... A bill for the protection of persons making disclosures as wit nesses was passed A resolution asking the President to communicate instructions to Generals Pope and Meale on.takiag thefr commands, was 'reconsidered. amended and adopted .The afternoon was devoted to the Reconitruction bill, Williams having the floor. "Housk The most im porta .t topics bolore the House, yesterday, was the bill concerning the rights of American citizens abroad, and a communication from the Secretary of War transmitting the correspondence between the President and Gen. Grant, in reference to the Secretary of War. The correspondence was referred to the Reconstruction Committee, and ordered to be printed. TnE Lafayette Journal make no attempt to extricate us from tne financial quandary in which a former article of that paper seemed to place us, if we accepted it as correct in principle. It only asks eight or ten question in return, most of which will be disposed of, when .it answers our question fully and frankly " as it has promised. Yve await the answer. The NeT York News gives an " account of the arrest of a gift enterprise swindler in that city, calling, himself Clark, Webster & Co., who has been doing a very successful business. The News says the victims of the swindler, to the number of four thousand, assembled at the Toombs, wLue he was under arrest, to see what would ba done with him. They were mainly composed of the ignorant and the credulous, who were fascinated by the promise of bettering their condition by a very small outlay of1 money. Our laws provide heavy penalties for the bold men who stop people on the highway with the demand fof money or life. We do not regard them as much worse than those who wilkdtsliberately -cfaucocL cbimeAio swindle the poor out of their scanty earnings. Tue ' Kentucky Xegislature 'has passed a bill- increasing the salary of ' he Secretary of State. A model I arty of retrenchment and reform! 1

Mr. liendr'eks 4 Floored " on Ills Lxtra-Consttutional Hiarjje. Our reader did not fail to notice, in the perusal of Mr. IIendrick's speech which we published -yesterday, the decided and. unequivocal runner in which he was called in questio to Tor hia assertion that r the"

Republicans'1' of ' Congress claim not to be controlled Tty-; the Constitution in the measures of Reconstruction. He referred to the? foolish rand unauthorized expressions of ; Thaix Stevens, which Senator, Morton, in his speech, most; unqualifiedly condemned, and which has not been endorsed by a single Republican. paper or public man of any importance in the country, and with the artfulness of the demagogue, which bo one more fully understands than the Democratic candidate for Governor of Indiana, claimed that the Republican party had repudiated the controlling- authority of the 'Constitution in their legislation. Seaator Morton was not in his seat, but be was promptly met by a. denial 'of any such thought or purpose on the part of the Reconstruction Committee, by Mr. Fessenden, Mr. Howard and Mr. Oonkling. Thus abruptly cut off in his premises, Mr. Hen dricks referred confidently to Senator Sumner to sustain his assertion that the Republican party professed to act, and did act, ".outside of the Constitution ;" but here, too, he was met by a peremptory denial. It is not surprising that Mr. Hendricks should then have lost his temper, nor that he should have labored during the hour or more that, he continued to speak under the disagreeable consciousness that , his oration had been spoiled. This witless phrase of Mr. Stevens has become part of the Copperhead literature of the day. It finds its way into Copperhead platforms, and is as familiar upon the lips of Democrats as the indecencies of Brick Pomeroy and Henry Clay Dean. Poor Vallasdigham is shoved in the background. His speeches in favor of each man's liberty to be a rebel, have beepme 6tale; and Thad. .Stevens is now the favorite commentator among Democrats, because he has said that the reconstruction acts of Congress were outside of the Constitution. This speech of Mr. Hendricks was intended to be the "great gun" of the Indiana campaign, that from which the Democratic orators and newspapers were to take their texts for the canvass. In this view of the case it was unfortunate and very embarrassing that the distinguished Senator should be so handsomely " tripped up"" on the floor of the, Senate. Almost every issue of the Courier has contained this charge. We hope after the scene in. the! Senate of Thursday last it will remember to say it is the dictum of one man, and that as far as the Republican party can give it a denial or dissent it has, been done. The Courier of yesterday regrets to see the " pitiful" attempts made by us to exhibit the inconsistency and insincerity of the Democratic candidates and platform upon the financial questions. It attributes to us assertions and language never used by us, and therefrom deduces its conclusions. By this method it establishes to its own tatisfaction the vindication of Mr. Edgerton by the Journal. The Democratic party is making grevious complaint that the great mass of the money and capital of the country has been converted into Government Bonds, and that these Bonds being exempt from taxation, the burdens of supporting , the Government are thrown upon the mass of the people who are not bondho'ders and are generally poor. It also complains that the National Banks are; grand monopolies, for the benefit of this same class of tax-exempted capitalists.' Special advantages, it is claimed, are given these banks, and they, in a great measure, escape taxation, thereby bringing additional burdens upon the industrial and non-wealthy classes of the country. And yet while it declares a crusade against Bondholders and National Banks, this party in Indiana has selected as its candidate for President, for Governor, and Lieutenant Governor, large bondholders, National Bank stockholders, and Bank directors; men who are escaping the burden of faxatio'n, and -agtu'nsf one of whom legal proceedings are being(insti Puled to'cornpel lain to pay ihe faxes du.e.t.o.thftStafteppn hstoek. ,Xbese are inconsistencies which the Courier does, not deign to notice. And when one of these Democratic candidates boasts over his own signatureof be

ing the possessor ofS19S,000 of these Gcvernment hon-taxpaying , Bond?, the Courier would Jiave its readers believe it makes him more worthy of DemocTatjo confidence, and, a more fit person to become the champion of the principles of equal taxation and opposition to Bank monopolies!

Important hallroad Salt. The citizens of New Albany are now involved in a law suit, in which they have our sympathy. Evansville has passed through the same ordeal and been badly scorched. The suit against New, Albany is brought by Judge -Burke, of Cleveland, Ohio, and others. It seems that gome years ago the plaintiffs received a judgment in the Floyd Circuit Court against the New :Albany & Sandusky City Railroad, now a very defunci. institution, on forfeiture of the bonds and mortgages. Property was sold on execution sufficient to reduce the judg ment to $40,000, but no other property could then be found, th company being . insolvent, t ? The ,, balance on the judgment and the accrued interest now amounts to "about $70,000. When the road was first projected the City of New Albany subscribed stock to the amount of f 400,000, and issued bondato the Railroad Cpmpany therefbr. It is alleged that some settlement was afterwards made between the city and the company, by which the debt was extinguished and the bonds cancelled. The other defendants to the suit are citizens .of New Albany, who subscribed stock, and, it is alleg ed, never paid for it. The object of the suit is to compel the City of New Albany to pay a sufficient amount of the subscriptions to the railroad to extinguish the judgment. In case the plaintiffs recover a judgment, there are other bondholders who will undoubtedly brini? suit, and in the end New Albany will have to- pay very dearly for a defunct railroad. MonT l. M. ClarT The Hon. C M. Clay, Minister to Russia, has tendered his resignation, and will return to Kentucky in time to take part in the Republican Convention to be held in Frankfort on the 27th of February. We congratulate the Republican party upon this accession to its working men. Mr. Clay will take an active part in the canvass. -Kentucky Statesman. The return of Mr. Clay, at this time to his native State, will have a powerful influence in reviving the spirits of the Union men. We anticipate that he will be able to so reorganize the party as to make its presence felt. We notice that the Union men of Lexington have already taken steps to organize a Grant Club, and to add to it every Union man in the city. ' A Glee Club is to be organized in connection with it, and efforts made to arouse the spirits and enthu siasm of the Union men of that part of the State. We urge the Union men in all parts of, the State to follow the example of their friends in Lexington. Can a State Withdraw Its Ratifica tion? The previous Legislature of Ohio ratified the Constitutional Amend ment, known as the 14th article. The present Legislature has undertaken to rescind that. action. Both houses of Congress were last week engaged in the discussion of the subject, the question being: Can a State recon sider its ratification of a Constitutional Amendment? Mr. Sumner said the action of the Legislature was unprecedented. A State having once given its assent to an amendment to the Constitution had no power to withdraw it. Re verdy Johnson said Mr. Sumner was right. As Mas?rs Johnson and Sumner represent both sides'of the House, the fate of the rescinding resolution is already sealed. The Louisville Courier under stands that some of the third party men, or Union Democrats, at Lex ington, have bolted the nominations of the rebel party, and intend supporting a Union ticket made up of their partisans and so-called radicals. We do not see, how Union Democrats can consent to act with an organization which 13 doing all it can to disgrace them and the cause they supported during the war. It is likely the Courier will hear of more bolting than that at Lexington before the next Presidential election takes place. The locomotiyes on the New York Central Railroad are to be stripped of "all ornaments, brass or otherwise, and to , be - painted; a' 'jjale brown color. This is done to save unnecessary, work in cleaning, and consequently enables the road to materially reduce the number of its employees. T,f -

Tne Alabama Claims in England. It is becoming plaiu every day tint the people of England will soon force a settlement of the Alabama claims from their Government, and, if need be, overthrow the existing Ministry to bring the settlament ' about. The speech of Mr. Milner Gibson, reported by the cable, a few days since, was very pointed in this behalf. He said there were to be other Ministries in the future, which would not be bound by the decisions of Lord Stanley, as Lord Stanley had not been bound by those of Earl Russell. On the following day Rev. Newman Hall spoke in the same tone in Mr. Spurgeon's tabernacle, in London Of equal or even greater significance is a letter written by Lord Hobart to the London Times, in which, after reviewing the correspondence between the.two governments, he says ;

"It comes, then, to this: that the British Government has refused not only to ' yield to the demand of the United States, to submit the (case, except in a very partial and limited form, to arbitration. Is the British nation prepared to accept the responsibility? To decline to comply with the requisition of a foreign power because you consider it unreasonable is one thing; to refuse to adopt the only existing method, except war,, of settling the dispute is quite another. And it may well be asked whether, if a question such as that of the recognition of the South as belligerent, inflicting, as it did, serious loss and injury upon a friendly State, be not a proper subject for arbitration, any great question of foreign policy can ever hereafter be decided by any other than those time-honored, but somewhat illogical authorities, bullets and cold steel." Well, Evansville has at last got something of which she can : justly brag and claim to excel New Albany in her list of bankrupts. Let her make the most- of her pre-eminence in this respect. New Albany Ledger. It is to be expected that eities.doing an extensive commercial 'business, will have more bankrupts .than country towns .We see nothing strange in it. Iris asserted by those who know, that Commissioner Rollins sent the names of twenty persons,' Collectors and Assessors of Internal Revenue, to the President, charging them with corruption, and recommending their removal. So far as we know, these are all Johnson Democrat. It is our opinion they are all of this class. Of the twenty persons thus charged with corruption, the President has removed but one. The nineteen are retained in office in the face of the charges of corruption officially preferred against them. It is confidently expected that in less than a month, Alabama, being re orgauized under the Reconstruction laws, will apply, with a full delega tion of duly elected Senators and Representatives, to be re admitted to Congress. Georgia and North Caro Una are likewise expected to apply for re-admission at an early day. As soon as all the seceded States shall have thu3 applied and been admitted, the work of reconstruction will be com plete, and the insane howlings of the Copperheads will of necessity cease Special Correspondence. Enterprising New Yorkers are prepared to supply the wants ot the American people in every particular. Quite recently we were called urjon by an agent of a New York "Bureau of Correspondence," proposing to furnish us ready to our hand " special " letters from that city, Paris, London, Mexico, and South America, and any other part of the globe we should name. As we prefer the genuine to the spurious article, and were unwilling to perpetrate an imposition upon our readers, we declined to accept the very cheap offer made. Evansville Journal. We have received quite a number of these " foreign " letters, nicely written on manifold paper, all of which have gone into the waste basket without reading. Some of our cotemporaries, however, are publishing them under the heading of " special correspondence" of, &c. New Albany ledger. Intelligent readers soon become tired of such sham correspondence.
