MONTAGUE STREET, KBAR COURT, BROOKLYN 1ID IU BROADWAY, NEW YORK. ing VA" ing no negroes to quarrel about. The i pity of it is, that those wno provoao about the only men who profit by it The Boot on the Other Leg. The scheme of the New England Badicals to secure equality of State representation apart from anything the Constitution may have to say on the subject bids fair to torment its inventors. A petiton is now in circulation de mandinc Concress to look into a feature of State representation in which New England is deeply interested.

We make an extract or two from the document That it is manifestly unJuBt, unequal and oppressive, that the six email New England States, with a total population of 3,135,283 persons, should have twelve Senators in Congress, while the great and populous 8tate of New York, with a growing population of 3,880, 776, has but two Senators 1 That according to an equitable ratio of representation based on population, ii New England have twelve New YorS should have fourteen Senators. That it is as manifestly unjust, unequal and oppressive, that Pennsylvania with her population of 2,906,215 should have bnt one siita the representation of New England in tho Senate; that according to any just ratio of representation, based on population, if Now England baa twelve Senators Pennsylvania should have at least eleven. That it is manifestlyunjust, unequal and oppressive that New England, with a census valuation of property amounting only to $1,863,818,765 about equal to that of New York, and not one third more than that of Ohio should bo represented in the United States Senate by twelve Senators, wbilo each of these other States are re presented only by two Senators; that having regard to a properly basis of representation, if New England be represented by twelve SenalorB, Now York should havo twelve, Pennsylvania nine or ten, and Ohio eight." We believe that even New England will, in time, become weary of her own experiments, and will conclude, after all, that the oldConsti tion is about the best platform to stand upon. A Question fob Natcbilists. A very profound question has been sprung upon one of the law courts of New York, and the community at large, it is "are Turtles nhim We all know what a turtle is; we most of us relish turtle soup and admire turtle steaks, but who is prepared to decide whether tho turtle is an animal or a fish.

The question has arisen in this way tho new Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, having secured proper treatment for car horsos, prescribed the most humane method of sticking calves, and wringing tho necks of chickens, in seeking new objects for its beneficenco, came across the helpless turtle. Turtles are brought to market alive, and will stand a good deal of handling and rough treatment. The creature though ponderous is quite inoffensive and completely helpless when cast upon its back. The Captain of a vessel who recently brought some turtles to New York, in order to secure them on their backs, tied them with ropes. As nature has not provided turtles with any limbs which would afford a purchase for ligatures, th captain bored holes through their fins, though which the ropes were run.

To this the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animalt takes exception. The Society contends that boring holes through its fins hurts the turtle's feelings, therefore the praotice ij inhuman and obnoxious to the law for the prevention of cruelty to animals. The captain is duly oomplained of, and arraigned before the Court, when his lawyer forthwith puts in a plea that turtles are not animals. The Court, not being as well posted in natural history as in common law, postponed its decision. The law under which tho Society claims to act, refers only to animals.

People are at libert to skin live eels, immerse live lobsters in scalding water, or smash musquitos; they are not animals. But cutting off a dog's tail, or sus. pending a couple of cats over a clothes line is a misdemeanor. The decision of the question, whether or not the turtle is an animal, is of grave importance, especially to the turtle, as deciding not only a question of natural history, but whether a turtle has any rights or feelings, which man is bound to respect. Our stomach, out of gratitude for past enjoyment, appeals on behalf of tho turtle, and in the event of tho Court being unable to decide the momentous question, and it should be referred to the people at tho next election, we should un hesitatingly vote to admit the turtle to a fall participation in all the civil rights of the animal kingdom.

Good fob the Cobonebs. It is an ill wind that blows nobody good, and the miserable arrangement at Quarantine for the disposa1 of cholera patients is likely to prove an oil mine to the Bayiidge Coroner. Bodies of women sewed up in sacks are floating ashore almost daily, each of which puts seven dollars into the pocket of Justice Bennett, from the Treasury of King county. These bodies undoubtedly come from the cholera ships; it is the common practice at sea to sew dead bodies up in canvass and launch them over the side of the ship, and this convenient and economical custom is adopted in disposing of the dead cholera patients in the Bay. This may save the Quarantine authorities both trouble and expense, but the Supervisors of this county who have to foot the bills, might, on behalf of our tax payers, consider whether the work could not be done cheaper.

We look now at the business in ft purely economical point of view. Besides paying the Coroner seven dollars for each body, the county has to pay for the interment of the remains, and each case involves an expense of at least twenty dollars. Now if Kings county must be called upon to bury the unfortunate who die on the cholera ships in tho Bay, it would bo better economy to say nothing of deebney and humanity to roceive the bodies direct from the ships and inter them decently at once. There is another view to be taken of this disgraceful business; these bodies ore liable to bring infection to the shore. This matter has been throught to the attention of the Board of Health; but all the satisfaction that could be obtained from Dr.

Swinburne, the Health officer of the Port, was the statement that men were paid to bury these bodies on shore; if, instead of burying thom, these men throw the copses into the the Doctor couldn't help it, and the Board of Health seems to have been under the impression that they could not help it either at any rate they havo taken no steps to put a stop to the scandalous practice. This morning another body tied up in a sack was reported washed ashore at Fort Hamilton. The 'fhbune advances a curious plea for oolored suffrage in the South. It affirms that if the negroes are allowed to vote they will vote to. a man with "or massa and de family," and will never be guilty of sending to Congress "some Cufiee or Sambo on a distant plantation." This, if would be but poor comfort to the Eadicals, who look to the to vote dead against who represents the class which the Tribune has been reviling for a quarter of a century.

But if "Sambo or Ciiffee" is never to make his appearance in Congress, we shall be as far from the millenium as ever. Jeff. Davis. Mr. Charles O'Connor, it is said, will appear before Judge Underwood, at Eichmond, on Monday next, in behalf of Jeff.

Davis. It is not expected that the trial will be proceeded with, and, in this event, Mr. O'Connor will claim that his client has a right to be set at large on giving bail to appear when called upon. The sugar lands which lie along the banks of the navigable streams in Louisiana are now chiefly devoted to cotton. During the war a good deal of the necessary maohinery was destroyed, and much cano was lost.

Tho planters have not had the necessary means to renew their material, and consequently sugar ceases for the time being to be a staple product of Louisiana, notwithstanding that she was once the third sugar exporting oountryin the world. A highly respectable young man, John H. Woster, committal suicide in Greene township, South Bend, Indiana, on Tuesday, by shooting birnself. The deed WM.inspixed.bj thii fact a yonng lady to whom he was s'rigage'd to be married, refused to consummate the en Art follows foshign, andwhei, the town season is over, the opera olosed and everybody who wanta to be considered anybody 1b preparing for flight to tha Springs or the Falls, the mountains or tbsaaashore, the artiste close their stndioB and go forth likewise, to wander amid the haunts of nature and pick up studios for next season. There is consequently not mnoh doing; at present in fhfftt line.

Some few of our resident artists may keep pegging away all the summer, bnt the result of their labors will sot be manifested before next Fall, when we may expect to witness evidences of rapid advancemeotmade under tha encouragementof the liberal patronage of the Art Association. It is not likely that tho erection of the Art Building will be commenced this yar. The School of Design will probably ba able to produce aucb evidence of its practical utility as will ensure a generous support of the enterprise, the object of which is to educate and improve artists, by affording facilities for study and instruction, 'Whlttaker has another smalt painting on view in Morris window, 194 Fulton at. The subject is a schoolboy who is late for school and Is standing at the door, meditating whether he shall go in or not. He is supposed to be revolving in his mind the question whether, since he is likely to be punished, ho might not as well make a day of it, on the principle that one might as well be hung for a sheep as a lamb.

Tho flguro of the boy is well drawn and the expression of (he countenance is good, bnt not striking. Mr. Whitiaker is a pains taking artist, and is steadily Improving. His line is figure drawing and portrait painting, and in the lattor branch of his art he has been very successful. At the same place, we saw a very interesting piece of work by Cbsppel, which was not on exhibition, but merely left to be framed.

It was a small painting, in plain colors, of threo figures President Lincoln, Qono rals Grant and Sherman, Lincoln is seated at a tabbf with a chart beforo him. Grant is standing opposite, explaining, his plans on the chart. Sherman is standing in tho background, looking on and listening. Tho likenesses are drawn with photographic fidelity, and the merit of the picture lies in this and tho grouping tho figures in a natural and Buggcstivo situation. The picture is to be engraved, wo understand.

Messrs. Morris A Co. havo added largely to their stock of chromo lithographs, which are now becoming so popular. Among tho reBt are views of Lake Como, tho CaBlle of Chillon (immortalized by Byron), and a set representing the seasons. Several of tho paintings recently exhibited in the art exhibitions hero have beon engraved, and a few pro duced in colored prints.

Church's, Hart's and Hubbard's pictures have beon so reproduced. An Improvement to the Water Front. Among tho numerous improvements along the water front of this city, which have beon and are being effected, none will surpass tho work which is now being rapidly carried forward to completion, at tho establishment of Messrs. Havcmeyers Elder, sugar refiners, on First street, between South Third and South Fourth streets, E. D.

Tho already immonso stmcturo is being enlarged in tho rear, in consequonco of tho increase ol business, so that when completod it will bo one of the largest, if not the largest of any sim. establishment in the city, and furnish on improve, mcnt to the water front, the like of which is not visible at any point along tho liver. The dimensionB of the proposed addition to the main building aro 130 by 97 feet; is eight stories in height and constructed of brick. On tho site of tho improvo, mcnt stood formerly the engino and "retort" houses' occupying a considerable space, but these havo been removed to make room, and new ones erected to tho northwest of the original buildinp, in tho rear of a set of now and oitenslvo offices, built at the samo time, on First street. The rear building will havo two towers, at a given distance from each other, extending out eight foot towards tho rear, ono of which will be bo constructed as to furniBh a safe way of retreat in case of fire in the establishment.

Tho new addition will bo supported by iron columns; have 6,300 moulds for tho BUgar on each of the first four floorB, which, together with thoso in the original building, will mako the entire number will bo fur nished with 17 "centrifugals" to soparato the mola3seB from the sugar, and tho river front of tho structure boar the Eldor." Whon the work is completed, the dimensions of tho ontiro establishment will be 180 feet water and street front byl50foetin depth. Mr. Joseph Wesley is the architect, to which gentleman the Reporter of tho Eagle is indebted for the preceding facts. Miss Laura Robinson on Temperance. The Methodist Church in Eighteenth street, near Fifth avonuc, was nearly half filled last evening by an audience assembled to hear Miss Laura Eoblnson lecture on temperance, for the purpose of raising money to liquidate tho church debt.

Previous to and after tho lecture little Eflio Parkhurst sang a little song, but the bttlo lady having been recently unwell, was not in good voice, the audience, however, made due allowance, and applauded loudly. Miss Robinson mado herapol opy for one so young appearing a9 a temperance speaker, and then launched forth in what no dsubt appeared to her to be unanswerable logic. It is not in landed to say aught against the temperance cause, for temperance in all things" is ono of the best maxims that can bo adopted by either man or woman; but Miss Kobinson has evidently mistaken her calling. She brings neither eloquence of delivery, beauty of language nor soundness of argument to tho support of her thomo; and Bcems to take it for granted that men only are addicted to intemperance, wbilo the female portion of tho community suffer all the evil consequences of the habit of imbibing intoxicating fluids. A morning visit to tho Police Courts would soon disabuse Miss Robinson of tho idea that females do not drink, and also show to her a field whero sheoould ba really useful by approaching and converting the misguided and degraded irom the error of their ways; and not by making assertions and giving Biblo and poetry quotations in placcB whero the poor unfortunato victims of intemperance do not go.

No doubt the story of her brother's going to the war, returning to tell that he "never spent money when in camp for rum or other intoxicating drink," and then dying, is very interesting to Miss RobinBon and her personal friends, but to the public generally it is of no interest.

The following is a case which places a young lad not yet 13 years old, in a very bad light, but which serves the community by bringing others of a youthful gang of incendiaries to justice.

The Board of HeaMU and the Coney Islanders. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: In yonr issue of the 30th inst. you publish the proceedings of the celebrated Board of Health for the previous day. I notice particularly two of your headings to that report, viz; "'Longshore Nuisances," "Coney iBland fringed with Cholera Bodies and Car caeses." Ton then, under "Troubles Alongahoro," report the debate between President Schultz, CommlB missioners Bergen and Swinbnrne. Ajs a resident of Coney Island, I must most solemnly protest against tho foul and infamouaelanderscontainedin tbat debate, and to differ most decidedly from the honorable Presldont of that Board.

I quote from his remarks: "Coney Island, a barren waste, whero no man or woman can safely go, now a daya, ia a fit place for quarantino purposes. I have offored bonds, to any amount, to securo a portion of the place to locate quarantine buildingB for the well passengers of infected vessels. I offored to build walls around them so high that noperson could be able to escape from them, and to place a guard, whatever kind they might designate, to prevent the egress of any of the occupants. Bnt tho property owners say no. Ia not this inhuman? Coney Island is a bad spot, and should be mado to subserve some good purpoBe." Now for a little explanation: Somo threo weeks ago, Mr.

HendrtckBon, who leases the ground on Coney Island Point, was notified that he must leave his houso and land, as the Board of Health had dotermlnod to erect an hospital on tho premises. Ho immediately protested against such an arbitrary proceeding, but was cooUy told by the Great Mogul Schultz, and tho inaolent Acton, that they had determined to do it, and that they would do it; that Conoy Island was a reeort for thieves and prostitutes, and that no decent person visited there. In view of which, a town moot. Log was called for tho purpose of Bhowmg tho Board of Health (what they Bcem to have forgotten) that tho people havo rights which they will not seo trampled on with impunity. When the injustice of tho act was explained to Schultz and Acton, no offer Was mado to our remonstrances; we were treated as all who appeal to them, by insulting and sarcastic allusious to our native place.

Coney Island is a first cUbb watering place, and 1b daily visited by tbjUEands of the most rcspcctablo people from all parta of tho country. No place in tho world affords better facilities for bathing, and a moro branti ful drive from tho city to tho beach cannot bo found. These aspertionB against the place arc an insult to all who visit it, and can only be promulgated by thoso wboee minds are bo weak as to be unablo to admire tho beauties of nature, or bo prejudiced, that not boing able to accomplish their own ends (bo they good or not only to destroy the character of tho place, but to insult, degrade and destroy the business of tho inhabitants. Wo thank God that wo havo ono man who is true to himself and to ub, and who has boldly replied to the vile Blurs and misrepresentations of that man, Schultz. Bis name iB John G.

Bercon. Now ouo word in regard to the bodies found on tho Bhoro. There were two found on tho 25th instant on the Conoy Island Bhore, and on the following day, ono at Fort Hamilton. This would hardly warrant the assertion, that "Conoy Wand is fringed with cholera bodies and carcasses." In regard to the amount of offal on tbe beach, thero is no more tlian usual at this seasen of tha year, and cortainly not enough to excite the disgust or apprehension of any of the inhabitants. The only ojTal that troubles us, is the awful of tho President of the Metropolitan Board of Health.

Very respectfully, "Comet Ibiaho." Trades Union. To the Editors of the Brooklyn Eagle: tooling over the columns of the Eaqlb last evening which has been my ovening companion for tho last ten years my attention was attracted by a communication signed "A Tribune Compositor," in which ho la bora to prove tbat Mr. Greeley is a friond of the working, man, is now, and alwoya was. Ho attempts to provo that all Trades Unions are humbugs and nuisances. Now, Mr.

Editor, I tako it that this indivlduol is one who took a situation on tbat paper when the compositors were on a striko, sorao timo ago. and ho takoa this method to vindicate himself from boing a "rat" and a "WocfamffA," but which won't do. Ho is ono of those who lurk iu secret places, waiting to tako tho placo of on honorable mechanic who attempts to lift himself up by honest industry and ability as a good workman, and who thwarta the noble aspirations of the artizans who v. ill not be kept at starvation's door by tbo greedy cap. italists of the city.

As ho cannot mako a comfortable living for himself and those depondin" upon htm, ha docB uot want others to do it: ho follows that old but true saying that "misery loves compony." I should not have noticed his article, only that ho assails thoso associations and trades socioties, which lift men up abovo the "beast of burden" of our land, In regard to oach and every assertion of this Tribune compoBitor I deny in toto, and Bhall not consumo your valuoblo Bpaco by going into a detailed denial of tho samo, coming from Buch a sourco es it does, but would gladly hold a friend ly confab wiih an honorable and upright poraon, whether ho be a printer, shipwright, or atiyothormo. chanicsl calling, and who seems to differ with mo in repaid to believing that Unions of Trades aro or aro not beneficial to the mechanic and workmen.

Number of Houses Built in Brooklyn last Tear, NUMBER NOW IN PROCESS OF ERECTION AND WHERE LOCATED. large additions to the Taiable Property of the CityGood Prospects for Honse hunters. There is quite an excitement among capitalists here, as well a in Gotham, Just now, in regard to the investment of their spare "greenbacks" in new buildingB in the outer wards of Brooklyn, adjacent to the site of the new Prospect Park, the laying out and improvement of which is expected to be commenced very soon. During the past few weeks, wo have published from day to day accounts of large Bales of real estate in the outer wards of the city, culminating in point of cxtensiveness with the immonso Polhemua estate in the Eighth and Tenth Wards, comprising nearly ono thousand building lots, which were all sold at prices far above the figures anticipated, The lots were sold in parcels of from ono to ton, and instead of lying barren and unproductive, as they have heretofore, they will within a Bhort time, in accordanco with the laws of natural economy that govern demand and supply, be covered with habitations for tbe habits, tionless inhabitants of this city. It is a well known fact tbat the population of this city within tho past twenty five years haB increased very rapidly.

Beginning with 1850, the coubus tells tho following: 1850 Brooklyn, 12 wards, population 90,838 1855 Consolidated city, 18 wards, pop 205,350 I860 19 18C6 20 395,112 Thus is shown an actual gradual gain of population in the decode of years from tho census of 1855 to that of 1865 of almost 100,000, or one third of tho present city counting tho ratio of increase at the same proportion' our present population cannot bo far short of The increase in the number of buildings for tho accommodation of this population has not beon at all in proportion. In 1805, tho total numbar of buildings of all kinds erected in this city was as follows: let Ward 14 11th Ward 38 2d 5 12th 9 3d 5 13th 17 4th 2 14th 10 5th 0 15th 5 61b 10 10th 21 7th 100 17th 9 8lh 100 18th 9th 120 19th 7 10th 83 20th 44 Those who were unfortunate enough to bo obliged to go house hunting in May last, can form eotno idea of how far short of tho demand this supply It is a well known fact, that there are to day in Brooklyn not hundredB, but thousands of families, suffering tho miseries of boarding houses, and the exactions of boarding houBO there are no housesfo'r them to live in. Happily a new era is about to dawn, and it is confidently expected that the present fever of speculation for housebuilding will besides adding many mil. lions of dollars to the taxable property of tho city, glvo homeB next year, to thousands of now homeless families. Tho following aro tho building improvements now going on as noticed by our reporter in a haBty ride through the city.

Faesing through tho first and second Wards, which are already so closely built up, that there is hardly any more room for improvement, we como to the THmD VAItD, which is also pretty well built up, however in conso. 4uence of the "fancy" prices of which real estato ia hold in that neighborhood, thero aro still a considerable number oi building lo(j left in tho Ward, and it is now a days, a rara avis to seo any now buildings going up. The event has como and thero aro tlx olegant new brovm Btono front houses putting up in Hicks afreet, between Joralemon and Bemsen, besides a magnificent stable which is being put up near the residences. Continuing through tho 4th, 5th and 0th Wards, with the exception of few additions to buildings and Borne single houBes of small calibre, there is nothing to be found in the way of improvement, for these Wards havo attained their maximum of value, and there isno spoou. lation in tho eyes that look upon their stately mansions, or moro humblt houses, we como to tho SEVENTH WABD.

where considerable improvements aro going on. On tho South side of GatCB avenue, between Trotter and Hall Btreet, Mr. J. H. Funk, is erecting a row of fivo first class brown stono fron houeeB, worth about $16,000 each, and on the opposite Bido of the samo avenue Mr.

Funk is putting up fivo more in the same atyle, tho entire cost of the ton bouses being over $150,000. In Franklin avenue, bctweon Putnam and Bedford avenues, seven handeomo iramo buildings are being put up. They aro estimated to be worth $3,000 each, and in Bedford avenue, between Quincey and Hiokory streets, Mr. J. H.

Ireland is putting up four pretty frame cottage houses, worth about $3,000 each. In addition to these, as indeed it may be said once for all that in all tho remalnin wards which Bhall bo enumerated, there are largo numbers of single houses being erected, which will not be found in this list, as tho aim of the writer ia to give merely a general view of the building improvements which aro going on ia tho city, without going entirely into tho mtnutifo ot the matter. Passing then along to the EIGHTH WABD a largo number of building improvements aro found to be in progress. In Third street, near Fifth avenue, E. B.

Litchfield is putting up a splendid block of twelve 3 8tory and basement bioivn stonolront houses, which are estimated to ba worth about $15,000 each, and on Warren Btreot, between 4th and 5th avonues, two simi. lar blocks of housos, twolve in eaoh block, aro boing erected hy a Mr. Eobins. Tieso blocks, when completed, will be worth over $400,000 quite oil portant increase in tho taxable proporty of this city. In Middlo street, between Oth and 7th avonues, Mr John Buck, is putting up a row of thirteen 2 story and base gent framo cottage houses worth about $2,500 each.

In tho NINTH WABD there are here and thore a largo number of single housos foing up, but moBtly of a poor claBs. Somo good houses are being put up along DeKalb avenue, Quincy street and Putnam avenues, between Nostrand and Marcy avenucB, The TENTH WABD is improving moro rai4dly. in Degraw Btreet, botween Hoyt and Bond, Mr. Valentino G. Hall is erecting a row of four two story and basement brick housos, worth about $0,000 each, and on Douglass street, on tho same block, the same owner is erecting a similar row of houscB, the whole being orth about $50,000.

On President street, Mr. D. Voorhees is putting up a handsome row oi ten brovn stono front houses, first cIobb, estimated to cost about $15,000 each. There' but little doing in tho ELBVENTH WABD Just now, with tho exception of two handsome first claBB brown stono houses, which aro being oracled in Hampden street, by Joseph 8. Morgan, late Colonel of the 90th Iiegiment, and whilom provost marshal ana post commander at Key West.

They will be wort when completed, about $10,000 each. TWELFTH WABD remains in statu quo, so far as tho laying out of new buildings is concerned, at least for the present. The new floating dock and basin at Bed Hook, which, when finished will be one ol the wonders of tbe world, is approaching completion rapidly and will in a few months be ready for formal opening. We have heretofore given a description of this immense basin, which large enough to float whole navieB, and also of other 'arge manufacturing building! which have recently been erected in the lath Ward. Liko the 12th Ward, tho THXBTEENXH WABD is noticeable for the large number of store houses and manufactoiies it contains.

It has a large river front, which is entirely covend by manufacturics of all kinds, and there ia now in course of erection a building that will echpee all of its kind in tho world. It is a new building which is being eractcd by Messrs. Havemoyer 4 Elder, for tho purpose of a Sugar refinery. Whon completed it wiU be capable of turning out the immense amount of 800 barrels of refined sugar per day. With machinery and aU it will cost in the neighborhood of $250,000.

Means. Merrill Sons, iron founders, are also erecting, on the corner of South 11th and 1st streeta, a large building for an iron foundry, which will cost about $30,000. Theso form tho principal buildings which are going up in the 13th Ward, bnt there are be. sides a luge number of alterations and additions being mada to the manufacturiee, Ac, in this Ward, which will increase the taxable property to the amount of over half a million of doUars. In tho FOURTEENTH, FIFTEENTH AND SIXTEENTH WABD3 there is very little building going on, with tha exception of a house here and there, the new houses being mostly of a second or third rate character, both as to afcsj and material.

These Wards are among tho most, thickly populated in the eastern section of the city, and consequently thero is not much chance for improvement or tho investment of capital on them. SEVENTEENTH WABD, however, is beginning to look up considerably, and a number of fine houses aro being orected there. On Java street, Andrew Mills is putting up two now frame houses, worth about $2,000 eaoh. On Washington a large building, 48 by 76, and five stories In height, to be used for manufacturing p'urposes, is in prooess of erec tion. Three two story and basement nouses are buna ing on Tremont street, and on Clinton avenue, between Fulton and Atlantio avenues, two first class housos, worth $1,800 each, are being erected by J.

Wilson. On the same avenue another' splendid mansion li being erected, near Gates avenue, which will coat ia the neigh bcihocd of $60,000. TWENTIETH WABD.

The report of the EeconstrncKon Committee agreed upon in the Eepublican Senatorial canons, fares very badly in the Senate. It is within the power of the dominant party in the House of Representatives to silence discussion under the operations of "the previous question." The rules of the Senate do not allow of this convenient method of shutting off debate, and the consequence is very damaging to the platform upon which the party in power hope to carry the fall elections hut upon which they do not expect to restore the Union. The debate yesterday was upon the third section of the report, under which all who have over held any office under the general or State governments, and who took any part in the late war on the part of the South, are forever de.

clared incapable of holding any office, either under the National Government or the governments of the several States. Mr. Doolittle opposed the third section on the ground that it provided a new punishment for an offence already oommitted. Under the Constitution, Congress is prohibited from passing ex post facto laws, and a law providing a new punishment for an offence already committed is clearly ex post facto in its nature, Under the common law the punishment of treason was accompanied by many barbarities; to prevent them, the punishment of treason is clearly defined by the Constitution. It is not punishable by a denial of political rights.

Mr. Doolittle went on to show that the clausemade no distinction between those who were forcod into rebellion and those who voluntarily joined it. Governments have duties as well as rights. A Government de jure cannotin justice punish citizens it was not able to protect from the disabilities a de facto government choose to infliet For four years the so called Confederate government was supremo in the South. A citizen who desired to remain true to his allegiance to the National government looked in vain to that government for protection.

Is he to bo punished now for yielding to an inexorable necessity? Again under tho amnesty proclamations of both Mr, Lincoln and Mr. Johnson, issued under a law of Congress, a very largo number of those it is now proposed to punish by a denial of political rights, accepted, and secured pardon for their past offences. These pardons, says Mr. Doolittle, restored those to whom they were extended to their full rights as citizens, and tho Supreme court has so decided. These objections the Eadicals attempted to answer in this fashion.

"Mr. Grimes aaid what Mr. Doolittlo held waa truo a3 to tho disabilities for crime already committed. Tho object of the section now pending, however, was not punishment for what was past, but preventive against what won in the futuro; it being prcsumablo that they who had rebelled once would do so again, unlosa some precaution was taken to prevent them." The theory of punishing men for crimes they may commit in the future is a very convenient one, but the credit of its invention does not belong to the Badicals. It is substantially the theory upon which despotic governments are maintained.

Civil rightsaredenied to the people under arbitrary governments least they should abase them. It is not presumable that those who have rebelled once will rebel again, and if it were, the denial simply of the right to hold office would afford no guar, antee against rebellion in the future. On tho contrary, if a large class of the Southern people embracing every man of prominence in that section are exposed to peculiar disabilities for their past offences, we give them a motive for keeping alive disaffection and for fomenting rebellion whenever there is a chance of its success. The purpose the Radicals have at heart was very naively expressed by Senator Wiley, of West Virginia, who said: "Tho effect of Mr. Doolittle's amendment would be to emasculate the fection.

If it was adopted it would be impossible to find a man in tho South who had voluntarily engaged in the Rebellion." Now, what a terrible misfortune this would be, to the Badicals. If it should so happen that it would bo impossible to find any man in the South willing to confess that he voluntarily aided tho rebellion, what would become of the party whose hope in the future is based on its ability to prolong a discontent which will afford it an excuse for legislation which will concentrate political power in the hands of its adherents? Assuming that it should turn out that the Southern people would strain a point to resume their full relations with tho government; in doing so they voald the more effectually repudiate all responsibility for tho late war, and would in a double sense, bind themselves to fidelity in the future. Would anybody lose anything by this, except the party whose organs ferret out every evidence of ditcontent at the South, with the instinct of the jackal, and are never so unhappy as when they fail to find pretexts for prolonging existing alienations between the two sections? Of course Mr. Doolittle's amendments were voted down for it has been decidod in a parly caucus that the Union shall not be restored until the South consents to give up all the advantages of a return to its allegiance under the old Government. The Eadicals pretend to fear that the Southern people will not remain faithful to their oath of renewed allegiance, because they do not regord the sanctity of an oath, this were tine, what security would any obligation we can exact give us? Will they be more likely to regard an obligation they assume willingly, than one we force upon them? tf the Southern people will not be faithful to a government under which all their former rights are restored, will they be loyal to one under which these rights are withheld.

This is the whole issue in a nut sVU, and the humblest citizen is capable of deciding upon it for him Bell Radicals on the Rampage. There is a flavor of downright ugliness about Massachusetts Radicalism which we rather like, The politicians of the "Hub" make no pretence to desire reconciliation with the people of the Southern half of the Union. They re. solve in the spirit of old time Puritanism, that we are the Saints, in politics as in everything else, and that only "we" can be safely entrusted with the control of the government. At the meeting recently held in Boston, and over which the Governor of Massachusetts presided, it was resolved that those in rebellion have no civil or political lights which loyal men (meaning, of course, loyal New England men) are bound to respect; that the war will bo looked upon "as a stupid blunder or a gigantic crime," unless the government is protected not only from those who have been in rebellion, but from those who think the Southern people have any rights civil or political which "loyal men are bound to respect," and unless the blacks, who share with Eadicals in a monopoly of loyalty to the this government, be at once allowed to vote.

By way of encouraging the negroes to get up a row on their own account, the following resolution was oIbo passed Bosolved, That deeply s.vmpattiiirifr with our colored fellow citizens for tho outraacs to which th are subjected at the hands of Southern rebols through the complicity or indijjerence of tltc Government, we warn their opponents that tltc day it not far dittani when paitive tulmimon will cease to be a virtue, and duty and honor will alike require them, in imitation of our Revolutionary Fatherfl, to assume the defence of their own rights, and appeal for their Justideatioa to tho intelligence and humanity of the civilized world. The atrocity of this incentive to revolt, it is needless to dwell upon. Its effect upon an excitable and ignorant population will be seen in due time. Now, we warn these radical fomenters of rebellion that they are treading on dangerous ground.

The funeral of Gen. Scott fates place to day. The death of the veteran hero calls out every manifestation of respectful regret. Both houses of Congresa have adjourned; the public business is suspended in the political and commercial capitals of the nation. In New York private business has been laid asido in great measure by tacit consent.

The brokers and other cor. poratc commercial bodies have adjourned over stores are closed in many instances, and the national flag i3 lowered in the presence, as it were, of death tho only foe it cannot hope to brave. A correspondent of tho TPbrfd, writing from West Point, gives a very interesting account of what is to be seen, and the personal reminiscences to be gathered there. A VIEW OF THB BODI OF THE DEAD. Directly the linen at tho head of the bier is removed, and a round, Bunkon face of Bhavcn white is revealed.

ThiB was once the "radiant Haunted Palace" the face of the General. It is like, and yet very saddening and changed. Death has given it the peaked look of corpses, and this is farther sharpened by the loss of tho faleo teeth, which make the chin draw close to the hose, and greatly shortens the face. His eyes havo been closed, but one of them is a little unsealed, so that there is a trifle of crevice of tho white eyoball shining through. The well cut noso and mouth havo littlo suffered; the hair is white and thin.

It is fashionable to say of General Scott that he was unequal to tho wishes of tho lato great war. Let all belittlors of his history, in this regard, look at this very old man, and accuse not him but Nature. It was for a vigorous lifetime a (ace grand with mastered energies, so clothed with dignity that when it relaxed to smile one loved it for the condescension. Now, it is an old, old face, drawn up and childish in outline, as it was in fact, though not In appearance, for two years prior to tho final burning out of the soul within it. It was waste, disintegration, age, that changed tho man.

Ho failed, to meet young exigencies because he was no longor young. But he lived to tho full comfort and appreciation of tho majestio tidings of victories won by his pupils in the army ho disciplined, and died in the glorious knowledge that this land was stronger, worthior than he believed, but no stronger nor worthier than tho mon who had como to inhabit and guide it. WRAPPED IN THB FLAG. In tho spring of 1861 a young lady of Washington made for General Scott a largo American flag, every thread of which hor own dointy fingors sewed; and having for somo timo preserved it with pride and aflection, the Genoral, no longor than a month ago, said that ho wished to be buried ia this flag. It was unfolded last evening in the ante cbamber of the dead soldier'B room, and will contain his remains.

His wife died abroad threo years ago, and this long separation is mado to indicate some graro cause of difference. Mrs. Genoral Scott was long a visitor and favorite here a Kichmond lady ol grace, spirit, and refinement, who Bimply found borself dis penBlble in tho General's declining years, whon he grew a littlo querulous and irascible. But.their feelings were kindly, althouch with him the vigorousnoss of sympathy waB enfeebled, so that he missed no one's face very greatly. Mrs.

Scott died in Rome, in the presence of her Bon in law. She was of Southern birth aud emotion, and this difference of opinion may have somewhat eBtranged tho two. Not even a spinstor can mako of ibiB domestic matter a caso against Old Chippewa. RELIGION OF THE LIEUTENANT GENEBAL. In order to correct a doubt tbat Genoral Scott diod in the full acknowledgement and hope of the Christian faith, I may state that he was a constant and dovoted attendant upon worBhip, both here and elsewhere, and that, except occasional profanity, hiB life was a model to public men in all decencies and temperances.

He was pciupulous as to etiquette and cleanUness, and was particularly noticeable in defending tho use of tho word damn. L'amn," ho used to say very often, "is not an oath; it is an expression of vulgarity simply." SOCIAL LIFE OF GENERAL SCOTT. Tho General, from long command and the natural in doctiination of military lifo, wag apt to be imperious, and, theroi'oro, was particularly chafed at the frco bur lesquoand bandy mado of his unguarded expressions, when he paEsed from soldiering to electioneering. Ho bad no elements of oucccss as a candidato for men's BuflragcB, and tho campaign of 1852 materially affected hiB popularity. As to tho epithet of "Fuss aud Feath oi irequently applied to him, however, I havo beon speaking to the very Intelligent and accurate adjutant of (his post, Captain Boynton, and am told that General BeottwaB remarkably simplo and Bovoroin hisattiro, tind in address irascible but not blustering.

He was in lovo with thiB place, becauao he boliovod entirely in the efficacy of the Military Academy, which bo regarded aa in some 6ort his own creation and child.

Ho had a coachman and a valet, both of whom were Englishmen. Of the evenings, wherever ho might bo, ho hid company of some Bort, and most of the i fflcers, families at tho post were intimate, if not familiar w.
