burden of ‘not less than $500,000,000, of
which seven or eight hundred millions have
already been met and paid. From the tune
these confederated States thus withdrew their
representation in Congress and leVled war
rgainst the United States, the gt‘eot mass of
their people became and were Insurgents,
rebels, traitors, and all of them assumed and
r coupled the political, legal, and practlcal re-
lltion of enemies of the Unite'd States. This
position is'established by acts of Congress
and judicial decisions, and is recognized re-
peatedly by the President ill public procla.
motions, documents and speeches. . .
Second. The States thus confederated
prosecuted their war against the Unlted
States to final arbitrament, and did not cease
until all their armies, were captured, their
military power destroyed, their civil officers,
State and confederate, taken prisoners or
put to flight, every vestige Of State and con-
federste government obliterated, their ‘terrl-
tcry overrun and occupicdiby the federal ar-
mics, and their people reduced to the condl-
tion of enemies conquered ln war, entltlcd
only by
and conditions as might be . vouehsafed by
the cenqueror. This positlon'is’also estab-
lished byjudic'lfil decisions, and is recog.
nized by the President in public proclama-
tions, documents, and speeches.
' Third. Having voluntarily deprived them-
selves of representation in Congress ‘for the
criminal purpose of destroying the. federal
Union, and having reduced themselves, by
the act of levying war, to the condition of
public enemies, they have. no right. to com-
plain of temporary excluslon from Congress;
but, on the contrary, havmg voluntarily re-
nounced the right to representation, and dis-
qualified themselves by crime from -. partici-
pating in the government, the burden now
rests ’upon them, before claiming to be re—‘
instated in their former condition, to show
that they are qualified to resume federal re-
lation. In order to do this, they must prove
that. they have established, with the consent
of the -people,rrepubllcan forms ot.govern-
ment in harmony with the Constitution and
laws of the Unlted States, that all hostile
purposes have ceased, and should give ade-
quate guarantees against future treason and
rebellion—guarantees which shall prove sat-
isfactory to the government against which
they rebelled, and by whose arms they were
subdued.
Fourth. Having, by this treasonable with-
drawal from Congress, and by flagrant re-
bellion and war, forfeited all civil an d politic-
al rights and privileges under the federal
Constitution, they can only be restored there-
to by the pelmission and authority of that
constitutional power against whicn they re-
belled and by which they were subdued,
Fifth.- These rebelious enemieswere con-
quered by the people of the United States,
acting through all the oo-ordiuate branches
of the government, and not by the executive
department alone. The powers of conquer-
or are not so vested in the President that he
can fix and regulate the terms of settlement
and confer congressional representation on
conquered rebels and traitors. Nor can he,
in any way, qualify enemies of the govern-
ment to exercise its law-making power. The
authority to restore rebels to political power
in the federal government can be exercised
only with all the departments in which po-
litical power is vested; and hence the sever-
al proclamations of the President to the peo-
ple of the Confederate States cannot be con-
sidered as extending beyond the purposes
declared and can only be regarded, as pro-
visional permission by the commander-in-
chlef of the army to do certain acts, the effects
and validity whereof is to be determined by
the constitutional goverment, and not solely
by the executive power. -
Sixth. The question before Congress is,
then, whether conquered enemies have the
right, shall be permitted at their own pleas-
ure and on their own terms, to partiClpate in
making laws for their conquerors , whether
conquered rebels may change theatre of oper-
ations from the battle-field, where they were
defeated and overthrown, to the halls of Con- _
grass, and, through their represenatives, seize
upon the goverment which they fought to
destroy; whether the national treasury,the ar-
my of the nation, its forts and arsenals, its
whole civil administration,its credit, its pen-
sioners, the widows and. orphans of. those
who perished in the war, the public honor,
peace and safety, shall all be turned over to
the keeping of its recent enemies without de-
lay, and without imposing such conditions
as, in the opinion of Congress, the security of
the country and its institutions may demand.
Seventh. The history of'mankind exhibits
no example Of such madness and folly. The
instinctof seif-perservation protests against it.
The surrender by Grant to Lee. and by Sher-
man to Johnston, would have been disasters
of less magnitude, for new armies could have
been raised, new _battles fought, and the gov-
erment. saved. The anti-coersive policv,
whlch, under pretext of avoiding bloodshed,
allowed the rebellion to take form and gath-
or force, would be surpassed in infamy by the
matchless wickedness that would now sur-
render the halls of Congress to those so re-
cently in rebellion until precautions shall
have been taken to secure the national faith
and the national safety.
Eighth. As has been shown in this report,
and in the evidence submitted, no proof has
been afforded to Congress of a constituency
in any one of the socalled Confederate States,
unless we exceptthe State of Tennessee, qual-
filed to elect senators and represenatives in
Congress. No State constitution, or amend-
ment to a State constitution, has had the stu-
ction of the people. All the so-called legis-
lation of State conventlons and legislatures
has been had under military dictation. If
the President may, at his will, and under
his own authority, whether as military com-
mander or chief executive, qualify persons to
appoint and elect representatives, and em-
power Others to appoint and elect them, he
thereby practically controls the organization
of the legislative department. The constitu-
tional form of goverment is thereby practi-
cally destroyed, and its powers absorbed in
the Executive. And while your committee
do not for a moment impute to the President
any such design, but cheerfully concede to
himtlle most patriotic motives, they cannot
but look with alarm upon a precedent so
fraught with danger to the republic.
Ninth. The necessity of providing ade-
quate safeguards for the future, before restor-
ing the insurrectionary States to a participa-
tion in the direction of the public affairs, is
apparent from the bitter hostility to the gov-
ernment and people of the United States yet
existing throughout the conquered territory,
as proved incontestably by the testimony of
many witnesses and by undisputed facts.
Tenth. The conclusion Of your committee
therefore is, that the so-called Confederate
States are not, at'present, entitled to repre-
sentation in the Congress of the United States;
that before allowing such representation, ade-
quate security‘for future peace and ‘safety
should be required: that this can only be
found in, such changes of the organic law as
shall determine the civil rights and privileges
of all citizens in all parts of the republic,
shall place representation on an equitable'ba-
sis, shall fix a stigma upon treason, and pro-
tect the loyal people against future claims for
the expenses incured in support of rebellion
‘ and for'manumitted slaves,together with an
express grant of power in Congress to en-
force those provisions. To this end they of-
fer a joint resolution for amending the Con-
stitution of the United States, and the two
several bills dety‘gned to carry the same into
effect, before referred to. *

Warm House, ANECDOTEB.—Some good
stories are told of the Irishman “Edward,”
for four years doorkeeper at the White House :
Edward went with Fillmore to look at a
carriage which the necessities of- some south-
ern ma ate had thrown upon the market.
“We , Edward,” said the' president. “and
how will it do for the president of the United
States to buy a second-hand,carriage ‘2”
“And sure, er excellency and ye’re only
a second-ban president, ye now.”
Mr. Filmore took thejoke, but not the‘car-
ral e. . .
, his anecdote was told me by Mr. Lincoln,
and was called up by the followings
One dark and rainy evening we had got as
far as the door, on our way to Gen. McClell-
an’s headquarters, without an umbrella, and
. Edward was sent back after one, the president
telling him where he might find it, In a few
minutes he came back, announcing a fruitless
search, and adding: '
“Sure, yer excel ency, and the ownerrmust
have come for it.”
The resident laughed heartily, and found
us no or umbrella. .

The Fair.
Norwalk is to be the,theatre of general ill-
terest and a general crowd during this week;
Should the weather prove propitious, there
will be a concourse of people drawn hither
by the Fair, which of itself, would be worth
aten mile ride to see. The prospect for a
full and attractive exhibition is unusually
flattering. Among the fine‘stocks of cottle
to be exhibited, we learn that the entire herd
of Mr. Ketchum of Westport. will be pres-
ent, while our better class of farmers are ear-
nestly engaged in arranging a cattle train.
there will be a creditable display.
The great attraction of all Fairs, the Horse,
will be better represented than ever before.
The Track is in fine order, and workmen are
constantly at work improving it. A new
top has been purchased for the tent, ensuring
a better protection to articles within the tent,
and all in all,we shall have a general “good
time and a great many to it"—if the skies
are only propitious. ,
The Opening Address is to be delivered,
on Tuesday evening, by Rev. A. N. Benedict
of ‘Bridgeport. Other addresses will be de-
livered from time to time during the Fair, of
which due notice will be given.
The well-known Spinning
Bridgepo’rt,will be present one evening, and
sing some of their best pieces. The Nor-
walk Band has been engaged for each evening,
and all day Wednesday, and will discourse
their sweetest music. It is intended to make
the evenings at the Fair specially interesting
and agreeable. ~ _
Our cousins and. friends from up country
will be here in full force, and the latch-string
will be out at most of our village homes.
As a means of social reunion and opportuni-
ty forgeneral hospitalities, the County Fair
is worthy Of the support and countenance
of all. .
The cflicers of the society have provided
many important improvements, affording
convenience to the crowds likely to attend.
An exit gate'llas been provided at the south-
east extremity of the Fair grounds so that. all
carriages going east or south can leave by
the lower gate, while pedestrians can enter
and depart from either place.

By a special telegram received via the At-
lantic cable exclusively for the GAZETTE, we
are informed that on Thursday His Royal
Highness “The God of UnreasOn,” will mare
shal his whimsicalaud numerous host of ye
ancient and honorable order of J ayhawkers
and Bushwhackers, and will attend the Fair
with great pomp and ceremony. Part cf his
brilliant retinue will be mounted on gorge-
ously caparisoned steeds, each knight being
armed capo-pie as the law directs, while the
footmen will bring up the rear in solid phal-
'anxes, every man of them being dressed in
the latest Fall fashions, and the “Daughter
of the Regiment” appearing in a style not
yet copied by her many imitators. The cav-
alry will generally be on horseback and
the footmen will walk, all “keeping time to
the music of the Union” as played by the
Westport Band, which has been engaged, at
a lavish expense, for the occasion. At the
Fair Ground the troupe will be reviewed by
the assembled multitude, and all others pres-
ent. For further particulars, pay your quar-

NEW YORK—We observe that the ear:
nest Union Republicans of the Empire State
are inaugurating a vigorous campaign. Gen.
'eral Ferry and Governor Hawley have been
urged to take part in the election canvass,
and will no doubt speak there toalimited
extent. General Woodford, the candidate
for Lt. Governor, is already speaking night
and day, and doing as he always has done, a
yeomans service in the. good cause. He is the
youngest man ever nominated for that re-
sponsible position, yet in talents and eminent
deserving. he is the peer of the most eminent
of his predecessors. His nomination, we are
glad to know, was effected by our personal
friends, Theodirc Tilton, Wm. A. Hall and
Horace Greeley, and the compliment is but
a fitting recognitionof the merits, of one of
the active, working young men of the party
—a nomination both just and wise and .one
the Excelsior State will ratify, we believe,
by thirty thousand majority.

WESTERN Cannons—The Rev. 0. C.
Dickerson, of Iowa, who is struggling for
the erection of a little church way out, on
_the western borders Of that State, presented
his cause to the lst Congregational Church
yesterday, and received acollection of about
one hundred dollars. Mr. D. has many
friends in this county, having years ago been
pastor of the Methodist church at George-
town. He is now- pastor Of a Congregation-
al Methodist society. at Boonesboro, Iowa.
We believe it is to aid his strugglingcongre-
gation that he comes cast for old. We
'know him to be an earnest and zealously
good man and though evidently somewhat
embarrassed in his present novel field of du-
response to his appealshereabouts for aid.

BASE ll.\i.l..—’l‘he “ Waterbury“ club, having
played during the week with the Eagle, Enterprise,
Empire and Union clubs, of New York and vicinity,
arrived in Norwalk on Saturday noon, and played part
ot‘a garlic Wll'll the “Liberty” club. Some delay OC-
currcrl ill calling the game, caused by the Norwtllk
boys trying to put in Jimmy Hurwood, of the New
Haven Mutual club, as pitcher, in place of Joe Hutch,
who was absent. They did not claim it as a right. but
insisted upon it as a favor. The Waterbury boys rc-
t'used, fearing, as they said, to establish a dangerous
precedent for them. Their refusal caused much dis-
satisfaction among our players and the‘spectntors who
were anxious to see Harwood pitch, and especially so
as it was generally understood that he was a rogu-
lar member of the Liberty club. Believing so our-
selves wcbavc made special inquiries about the mat.
for since, and were informed by the officers of the
club (who request us to state the facts in order to cor-
rect the false impression,) that Harwood was a mau-
lal- member of the “Norwalk‘flclub. but that he is
11 0t and never has been a member of the “ Liberty"
club, which latter club was formed by consolidating
the “Columbia” and “Norwalk” clubs, in July last.
Harwood being ruled out, Quinturd was put in and
playedthroughout exceedingly well. We' have seen
both clubs play muell better than they did on this oc-
casion, although the playing was generally very good.
At. 4 O‘clock, the game'standing Waterbury 25, Liber-
ty 24 with only one man out, the Umpire, to the per”
feet amazement of the spectators, stopped the game,
in Order to give.the Waterbury club sufficient time to
reach the cars. In our Opinion, there was time enough
to finisll the inning, and it should have been done,
~or, at least, the game played until bosh sides were
even. Tne game was declared drawn, but the score
speaks for itself :—- '

An Ilfl’eotual Worm. Medicine.
BROWN’S VERMIPUGE COMPETE,
0n Wan; partisans". ' Much sickness undoubtedly,
{with children and adults, attributed to other causes
is occasioned by worms. The “ Vannmucn Corr-
r-rrs,” althdugh effectual in destroying worms. can
do no possible _lnj my to the most delicate child.
This valudble combination has been successfully
,used by physicians, and found to be safe and sure in
’eradicating worms, so hurtful to children.
CHILDREN HAVING Worms require Immediate at-
tention, as neglect of the trouble often causes pro-
longed sickness.
SYMPTOMS or- WORMS IN CHILDREN are often over-
looked. Worms iu the stomach and bowels cause
irritation, which can be removed only by the use of
a euro remedy. The combination of ingredients
used in making Brown’s “ Vermifugo Comma“ is
such as to give the best possible effect with safety.

Irresponsible Counterfelters.
One of the most serious annoyances which the
proprietors of an article in unusual demand have
to encounter is the piratical imitation of it by par-
ties equally unscrupulous and irresponsible. Iran
individual or a firm with means engage in this ne-
farious business. the damages awarded by a court of
justice for the offense are colleetable, and it is some
satisfaction to the party wronged that the wronger
is made to suffer. but in most cases the pirates are'
men ofelraw, who cannot respond in "dollars to the
law‘s award.
HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS being a
Standard Tonic, marketable everywhere, and rep-
seur ing the value afilxed‘to it as accurately as a Na-
tional Bank bill represents the‘ amount expressed
on its face, has been extensively counterfelted and
simulated. The proprietors have spent milny‘
thousand dollars in hunting up and hunting down
irresponsible individuals and firms who have given
then-minds to this dirty work. These parties—
some of them, at least—have a way of changing their
base, through they never change thelr banners.—
When an injunction is laid upon them in one part
of the country they sometimes “varnoose” to anoth-
er, and try the trick again. In some cases It is nee
essarytoklll them two or three times over. Per-
haps the best thing thatean be done is to ‘3 lay an
nonfiction" upon, all who use "19.13"“?! ,to buy
only of dealers whom they contrast. . In every city
townand village of the United State! and British
America this famous tonic, alteratlve and protective
medicine may be procurred of reliable men of busi-
ness. ~ - 36
