fttnate.
Tn Suffrage bill ror the District of Columbia
was taken op at W.45. The ponding question was
upon Mr. Dixon's amendment, to insertaa a quail
tlcation that no one who bna not heretofore oted
shall be allowed to tote unless he can read and
write his name. . .. .
Mr. COWAN, of Pennsylvania, oppowd this as
an unwise qnallflcallon. it " mockery.
He would favor such a qualification as exacd a
knowledge ol the OonaiHntlon and laws. That
would fit a man not only for voting:, but for aseat
on this floor, for he had heard men here who did
not seem to know what an tx pil facto law Is. If
he had a qualillcalion to apply, it would be that
no person should be admitted to this new privilege
who bnd Riven aid aud com tort to the rebellion;
for he had beard that there were negroes here who
sympathiarrt with the rebels in the late war.
Mr. FOSTER of Connecticut, diilered very
widely from Mr. Cowan in bin estimate of the
value ot reading and writing. He would think,
jTom Mr. Cowan's speech, that he was fresh from
reading "Much Ado About Nothing," and that he
agreed with Mr. Justice Dogberry that "to be a
well fornud man was the gift of fortune, but to
read and write came by nature," He (Mr. Poster,)
thought it a safe proposition that a man who
conld neither rend or w rite was unlit to exercise
the elective franchise. There were exceptions, but
very few. It wai a mistake to say that this idea
of qualification came from Massachusetts. Con.
necticut In 155 adopted a qualification that no
?erson should be allowed to vote who wps unable
o lead tne constitution or any section of the laws.
This was copied by Massachusetts In 1W7. In 1818
the State of Connecticut adopted a constitution,
making the possession of a good moral character a
condition ot the exercise of the elective franrtii e.
In 1K5 it added the reading and writing quilttl
cation, and ne thought this woe a step in tbe right
direction.
He (Mr. Foster) vai surprised to hear the Sen.
ator from Massachusetts (Mr. Wilson) say that
from 17b9 to the present time we had suffered no
thing Irom ignorance. It was trne that most of the
men who inaugurated the rebellion were educated
men; but most of them were lamentably ignorant
Of the character of northern men, and their capa
city lo resist the effort at secession. The mass of
tbe men who made np tbe rebel armies were Igno
rant and unlettered men. These were the men
who kept np tbe war. Ignorance and depravity
Had done all the harm.
He (Mr. Foster) was in favor of enlarged suf
frage. Tbe broader the basis of suffrage the more
stable would be the government. He would let
very person who was fit to vote do so. He vo'ed
yesterday for female suffrage not because he be
lieved the great mass of females would vote. That
was not the question. He voted for female suf
frage because he coo Id see no reason for denying
the right to any person who was fit to vo'e. To
enlarge the suffrage was to increase the number of
persona who would feel directly Interested in tbe
government; but while be was in favor of enlarged
suffrage without relerence to race, color or sex, he
was not in favor of allowing grossly ignorant
men, most of whom would be immoral because
ignorant, to exercise the right of suffrage.
He diday. believe the Interests of society would
e safe without some test of intelligence. He
would ask the Senator from Masachuset(s (Mr.
Wilson) whether if be were a member of the Mas
sachusetts Legislature he would vote for a man
tor United States Senator who conld neither read
or writef Would be conllrm a man for Chief Jus
tice or Jndge of tbe Supreme Court who could
neither read or write I He supposed no man
would do that. He understood all Senators op
posed to this amendment to vo'e that a man need
not be able to read or write in order to be fit to
vote. What was the ballot-box I It was the
highest tribunal of tbe land. The decision of the
Supreme Court could be reveraed at tba bailor
box, indirectly, perhaps, but it could be done. It
an act of Congress was unwise or injudicious, it
would be repealed at the ballot-box.
It was proposed to allow men who could neither
read nor write to correct the mistakes of Congress.
It seemed to him (Mr. Foster) absurd to say that a
man who could not read nor write was not fit to
sit in the Supreme Court, and yet to say that he
was fit to sit in judgment upon the acts and deci
sions ot the Supreme Court. He could not see
what protection the ballot-box was to a man who
conld not read. As a general principle he sub
mitted that there was no saiety iu ignorant
suffrage.
In conclnsion, Mr. Foster expressed the fear that
the ballot In the bands of ignorant freedmen wonld
be used by the very men against whom the friends
of unqualified suffrage desired to protect them.
He wished Mr. Dixon's amendment was stronger.
He would be willing to move an amendment to it
that this qualification shall not apply to those who
have served In the Union army. He thought it
would be well, if practicable, to superadd to edu
cation a good moral character. He wonld vote for
tbe bill if the pending amendment was adopted.
Witbont it was, be could not vote for it.
Mr. COWAN again took the floor, reiterating the
views already expressed against the bill und
amendments.
Mr. FKELINGHUYSEN, of New Jersey, re
plied to the argument of Mr. Cowan that this wis
an ex post facto law, in the punishment it provided
for rebels. There was a difference between abso
lute rights and conditional rights. A man's life
could not be taken away without conviction for
crime, but a legislature could take away the right
to vote at twenty-one years and fix it at thirty.
Tbe Senate would not vote for this bill as a pun
ishment. It wonld give the right to vote to a re
formed rebel. The nation bad a right to insist upon
loyalty as a qualification for Bull rage. The people
ot the south would be forgiven as soon as they ex
hibited loyalty, but the people of the loyal States
were inexorably iu earnest la their determination
to eradicate slavery and disloyalty. Whenever the
south acquiesced in terms embracing these con
ditions, tbe whole difficulty would be at an end.
This law was not ea post facto, for there was a law
in the statute book since 1790 declaring all who
had given aid and comfort to the enemy to be civilly
dead. Practically, said Mr. Frellnghuyseni this is
a white man's government. I would like to see the
men who could point to this fact asserted in the
Constitution. If tbe black race was inferior, it was
no reason why It should be oppressed by the supe
lor race.
It was asserted that by giving the colored race
the right to vote we were inducing distasteful as
sociations between the races. This was but tbe echo
of an old prejudice. There was no connection be
tween tbe two. It did not follow that a man was
socially your equal because he enjoyed with you
the right to vote.
Mr. k contended for universal suffrage, and op
posed the pending amendment. If suffrage was
qualified, there would be an inducement lo keep
tbe negro from learning to read and write, so as to
keep him from tbe ballot. If it was universal, the
people would be driven to the education of tbe ne
gro, to make him an intelligent voter.
Mr. WILSON, of Massachusetts, replied to the
speech of Mr. Foster. He felt sorry Mr. Foster
had advocated the pending amendment. While be
(Mr. Wilson) was opposed to making reading and
writing a test, he dia believe that they were great
aids to a voter. Hat if bis amendment should pre
vail, the cause of education would be retarded in
this District; the same bitter hostility to the colored
race that prevailed In this city would be continued
and Increased. If none but the colored men who
conld read and write were allowed to vote, the ene
mies of the colored men would see to it that there
were no opportunities given them to learn to read
and write. This amendment was a proposition to re
tard education. Let tbe suffrage be universal, and It
would be an incentive to education. He had heard
a great deal said about impartial suffrage. It was
a foolish idea, which would result in hindering
tbe education of tbe black man. He had heard it
said that tbe Senate should restrict instead of en
larging suffrage. That idea was aristocratic, not
democratic If the negroes of Virginia got the
right to vole, you would find Wise and Letcher
attempting to prove that they had always been
friends of the negro. They will make affidavits
that they are related to them; that the same blood
runs In their veins that courses through the veins
of the black man. No doubt the Democrats would
feta great many votes from the black men, if the
iemocrata treated them better than the Republi
cans, and he hoped they would.
Mr. HENDRICKS, of Indiana, was unable to
agree with Mr. Cowan In the construction he bad
given to the amendment of Mr. Dixon. He thought
the effect of that amendment would be good. He
did not favor intelligence qualifications as a gene
ral thing, but as to this particular proportion, be
was in favor of it. In the northwest he bad found a
great many men who were not able to read who
were still quite intelligent. Tthey always attended
publlo disuuMtons.and became well lufjrmed bv
mingling with others. Hut this was not true of the
negro m this District, just come from the farm, who
had never heard a qtiMUon la Jaw or politics dis.
cussed.
He would vote against this bill because tbe peo
ple of the District had expressed their voice in un.
mlstakaUs terms against Ik Us felt himself as much
bound lo regard the desires of the people of the
District in such a matter as be would the people of
Indiana, if he were legislating for thara lu the
Indiana Legislature.
Mr. LANK, of Indiana, briefly explained why
he should vote for the bill, and g.Unst tbe quiut
HuaUoas,on the principle that ail great govern.
jUE ; DAILY EyNlKG TELEG RAFII .FIIIIj
men is derive their poweTfrom tbe eonentof the
governed, and that the colored people were a pari
Ol the government This was a great question, In
which the recple Of the- whole oouo'ry were inte
rested. The election held in the District on this
snhject was Illegal and without sanction of law.
Those who were in favor ot negro suffrage kept
away from the polls, and hence those who were
gainst it had the election all to themselves. The
colored people of the District had shown tbem
selvee loyal and Intelligent; tbey had furnished
more men thnn tbe white Inhabitants tor the army.
In conclusion, Mr Lane said tne constitutional
Amendment was the braxen serpent to which the
southern people must look and be healed. If they
rejected that, they would never be admitted by
his vote to representation until they accepted
worse conditions than were contained In the
amendment. . . ' . .
Mr CUMNER, of Massachusetts, stated that he
had already voted against striking out the word
male from tbe bill, and be should vote against the
pending amendment, and both for the same reason.
My bis vote yesterday be did not intend to express
any opinion on ibe question whether women
should vote or not. That great question which
now for the first time has found its way into the
Sennte Chamber lie (Sumner) deliberately handed
over to the future, by which It wonld be settled
just so soon as the women In any considerable
numbers insisted that that It should be settled; It
depended upon them alone. When they choose to
ask for It tbey will have It.
Dir. Somner then gave his reasons for voting
against Mr. Dixon's amendment. The example
set by Congress now was to be followed by the
people of the disorganized States. As Congress
votes now so will they vote hereafter. If an
educational standard Is vet up It will be followed
throughout the south. The votes of tbe blacic
loyaltt-ta are needed now. I a the District of Co
lumbia Congress was beginning the great work of
reconstruction on which the Union was to be har
monized. Tbe question was then taken on Mr. Dixon's
Amendment, to add a proviso that no person not
now entitled to vote shall be allowed to vote here
after unless he shall be able to read and write his
nnrre.
Tbe yeas and nays were demanded.

Mr. WILSON ottered an amendment in two sec
tions, the first punishing those who offered a bribe
at au eloctiou: the s?ccnd punishing those who
accepted it. For offering a bribe the punishment is
'2M.u fine or two years Imprisonment, or both.

Tba House went into Committee of the Whole on
the State of the Union, Me. CULLOM, of Illinois,
la the chair, and took up as the special order the
DeMclency bill :
i Mr. WASHBURNE, of Illinois, moved to strike
out a paragraph appropriating i7e,ti7 for detl.
citucy tor work done or being done by the corpo
ration of Washing'on city in front of and across
e oven ment property. He said he was not disposed
50 vote money for this city.
The paragraph was stricken out yeat SO, nays
47
Mr. Si-OFIELI). of Pennsylvania, moved lo
strike out the paragraph appropriating J5t,tK. for
theHiate Iiepartment, and requested Information
boot it He had heard It said that it was lo In
dnce Surratt to enme to this country and receive
bis pardon, as there were no pardon agencies es
tshlisbsd In Eurcpe. (Laughter)
Mr. STEVENS said that he had himself bn
Indlspossd at first to recommend that Item to the
Appropriation Committee. He bad therefore re
quested Mr. Seward, who is a young man, (laugh
ter) to call upon him and give him the necessary
Information, and Mr. Seward bad done so. He
would esy to gentlemen that they had talked about
anything except business, and Mr. Seward had
crnvincedbim that the appropriation was neces
sary and proper. It comprlt-ed various matters
Tbe government had large suits pending In Ea.
rope, principally In England and France, to re
cover property which had belonged to the con
federate government, and these suits were very
expensive. The aggregate amount in volved was
over twenty millions, and It was supposed that a
very large proportion of that amount would be
recovered. The expenses in tracking Surratt all
over Europe were large, and the S ate Department
have to pay the additional expenses of the govern
ment vessel that was oonveylng Surratt to this
country. Then tbe State Department paid the ex
penses of tbe reception of tueen Emma in this
country and of her return to Honolulu. It also
had to pay the expenses of the recent expedition to
Mexico.
Mr. SCOFIELD expressed himself satisfied with
the explanation. He had not known but that some
part ot tbe appropriation might have been intended
to pay the expenses of tbe Presidential party
swinging nronnd the circle.
Mr. STEVENS assured him that no part of the
appropriation wonld be applied to that purpose,
nltbongh he understood there were some unpaid
bills in correction with that trip.
Mr SCOFIELD then wiihdrow his motion.
The Committee rose and reported the bill to the
House.
The Amendment made on Mr. Washbnrne's
motion In Committee, Btrlklngout an appropria
tion ol 917(1,0(11) lor work In publio Improvement of
Washington City was taken np, and gave rise to
considerable discussion. Tbe amendment was
egresd to, and the appropriation was struck out.
Tbe bill was then passed.
It makes among other appropriations the follow
ing: Public printing, fi.ooo: paper for same,
$450,(1(10; facilitating communication between the
Atlantic and Pacific States by electric telegraph,
SMO.l'OO; contingent expenses of foreign intercourse,
S25(l,( 00. The bill also Increases the pay of the ad
ditional police force lifty per cent., from the first of
November, IbOO.
The Houee then went into Committee of tbe
Whole, Mr. Ashley, of Ohio, in the chair, on the
President's annual message.
Mr. Wentwortb, of Illinois, was entitled to the
floor, but tning temporarily absent,
Mr. WARD, of New York, addressed the Com
mittee, stating that the sublime verdict of the
people at the recent electien was not to be misun
derstood. It admonished the President that his
policy of making war upon Congress, of galvaniz
ing into life tbe rebellion by reinstating In power its
leaders in tbe form of pretended State govern
ments in tbe south, had turned out simply to be a
monstrous engine of fraud and oppression. The
President's extraordinary use of the pardoning
power, his removing from office scarred and
maimed Union soldiers, and puttiug in their places
the creatures of his will, with a view to sap the in
dependence ot Congress and debauch the people;
bis sustaining the murder of NewOrleans patriots,
and, in short, nearly the whole of his acts, of
ficial and unofficial, from bis fourth of March pre
sentation to his "gyrations" round the circle, hud
been repudiated and rebuked by the people, to
which be so confidently appealed, by more than
half a million majority.
Congress was also admonished that the people
would InBlst to tbe last upon the adoption of tbe
constitutional amendment recently submitted to
the States, and in no event should that be aban
doned. Congress must go 011 and complete tbe
great work that Ood and the people had commit.
cu u uioir cnarge, ana tne illegal state govern
ments of the south must be rejected. Congress had
ample power under the Constitution to empower
the people of the south, who had deen deprived by
tne rebellion of all civil government, Irrespective
of race or color, to reorganize their State govern
ments. Congress should do this, and should au
thorize all male citizens, not disqualified by trea
son or other crime, except those who had held office
under tbe rebel usurpation, who had been gue
lllna. murderers, or leaders in the rebellion, to vote.
Suffrage should be secured to all loyal men, so
that tbey can protect themselves with the ballot, as
they protected the government with the bullet, and
oil men vho ht'd been rebels should be disqualified
lrom boldirg office. The rebel leaders, iiiateud of
demanding seals in Congress, should be suffering
from the pieseure of hemp, and no political fran
chises or power should be given to any of them.
The Union men and freedmen at the south should
be protected at all hazards, even if in accomplish
ing ibat purpose every traitor should perish. It
was lor Congress to build anew the temple ot the
republic, upon the eternal principles of justice and
equal rights, se that the nation should stand firm
and enduring as the everlas'ing hills.
