Wr.TKUMBULL called up the bill to repeal the thirteenth section of the Confiscation bill, or that part of the bill which grants to the President the power to Issue a proclamation of amnesty. The pending question was upon the amendment of Mr. Saulsbury to repeal the entire bill. Mr. JOHNSON, of Maryland, was entitled to the floor, but was not prepared to address the Se nate just now, so the bill was postponed till to morrow. Mr. SUMNER, of Massachusetts, called up the bill reported by hlra from the Committee on Eo-. reign Relations to prevent and punish fraudulent representations for inducing the emigration of ne groes or mulattoes from this country. It punishes trie person so offending with a fine of not more than S5uu, or imprisonment for not more than rive years, or both, and forfeits the vessel used in carrying persons so induced to emigrate. Mr. HENDRICKS, of Indiana, moved to amend the bill by striking out the words, "negro, mulat to, or other," so as to make It read, "that if tiny one shall by fraudulent representations Induce any person, etc." Mr. SUMNER said if this were adopted the reader of the bill would not be so carefully on his guard against the particular evil sought to be cured. In framing the bill the committee had only allowed precedent, as heretofore adopted by Congress. ' Mr. DOOL1TTLE, of Wisconsin, said the-e were other amendment would like to s adopted. Pending the consideration of this bill, the Senate, at 1.13, adjourned. House of Uepi'cscutatlves, Mr. HUBBARD, of Connecticut, offered a rio. lu'.ion declaring that the House will uot cmibent to the appropriation of the first dollar for pay. jnent for property destroyed by the Uuion army while engaged in putting down the rebellion. Re ferred to the Committee on Appropriations. Mr. MAYNARD, of Tennessee, asked leave to offer a resolution instructing the Committee of Ways and Means to inquire Into the expediency of redeeming the compound Interest Treasury notes, and five-twenty bonds with Treasury notes tearing interest at not ' less than three nor more than five cent.. Mr. ELDR1DGE objected, and the resolution was not received. Mr. BUNDY, of Ohio, introduced a joint reso lution for the establishment of four territorial go vernments within the so-called Suite of Texas ead twice and reierrel to the Committee on Ter itories. Ztt ilonee jro:eded, f, ttf JJjr jjwlfvii Ja or. rif r, to the ciyfsirlerV.ion of the bill repnrteJ by Mr. Steven on the Sdih of April, nw, from th- join, select Committee on Reconstruction, to provide for restoring to the States lately in insnrreotiou their full political rights, the question Dttrg on a itibnti tute proposed by Mr. Stevens on "lie 19ih of De cember, IMW. The futwtltute having been read, Mr. BINGHAM made the point of order -.tnt a the eighth section provided lor the admission of re bel States In compliance with the condiMoni pre scribed, the substitute must be referred to the Com mittee on Reconstruction. The SPEAKER overruled the point of or ier, as that bill had been reported from that commute, and was before the House, subject to amendment. Mr. SI EVENS proceeded to address the House in support of the substitute. He said h was anxl out that this bill should be proceeded with till final aotion upon it. He desired that the House should, as early as possible, come to some conclu sion as to what should be done with the rebel Stales. This was becoming more and more neces sary every day, and the late decision of the Su- fireme Court of the United States had rendered mmediate action by Congress on the question of the establishment of governments in the rebel States absolutely indispensable. That decision, though perhaps not so Infamous in terms as the Dred Scott decision, was far more dangerous In its operation on the lives and liberties of the loyal men of the country. It bad taken away all pro tection from every loyal man, black or white, re siding In any of the rebel States. It had unsheathed the dagger of the assassin and the knife of the rebel against the throat of every man who dared to proclaim himself now or here tofore a loyal Union man. If the doctrine of that decision were true, there never was a people In such terrible peril as the loyal people of the south, white and black. Unless Congress proceeded at once, and did something to protect those peopln from the barbarians that are now murdering the whites, and putting into secret graves hundreds and thousands of colored people, It would be lia ble to the just censure of the world for its neglect, its cowardice, or its want of ability. This bill was an enabling act to enable loyal men In the rebel States to form governments, and to put those governments Into loyal hands, so that they might protect themselves. The military authori ties now dared not order any general, command ing a department in States which had never been restored irom a state of conquest, and every one of which was held this day as conquered territory, to enforce the laws of the country. Oneof the most atrocious murderers ever let loose on a community, Watson, had been lately liberated under this very decision of the Supreme Court, because the govern ment extended its construction, perhaps properly, to the conquered States as well as to the loyal States. This Watson, whose case Mr. Stevens briefly outlined, was discharged by order of the Presi dent under that most iniquitous aud Injurious de cision. If that decision were according to law, then It became the more necessary for Congress to proceed and take care that no such construction should open the door to larger injuries than have been already sustained. The people had done their da'y nobly. Hail Con gress the courage to do its duty t Or was It to be deterred by the clamor of ignorance, bigotry and despotism from perfecting the resolution I He be lieved Ibat Persia in the past, and Turkey in the present, were as free as the freedmen of the coun try cow were. He would not slander his native land, but would reform it. Twenty years ago he bad denounced it as a despotism, that twenty mil lions of white men should govern four millions of blacks, and he pronounced it no longer a free re public now, when twenty-five millions of a pri. vileged class undertook to exclude five millions from all participation In the government. No go vernment could be regarded as free which did not allow all Its people to participate in the formation and execution of its laws. Such a Babel-like con fusion was caused by the intermingling of pardon ed rebels, hissing copperheads and apostate Repub licans, and It was dilllcnlt either to understand the questions asked or the answer given. Speaking of the President, he said that although the President was Commander-in-chief of the army and navy, Congress was bia commander, and, pleuse God, he should be made to obey. The President and his satraps should know that this was a government of the people, and that Con gress was the people. Unless impartial suffrage were introduced in the rebel States, every one of tbem would be sure to send a solid rebel repre sentation, and east a solid rebel electoral vote. They, with their kindred copperheads of the north, would always elect a President and control Con gress, and the people of the north would be the perpetual vassals and slaves of the south. Mr. STEVENS modirted the third section of the substitute so as to provide that the commissioner for each of the rebel States should be appointed by the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia, Instead of being elected by Congress. (The sub stitute has been already published, about the -Jd Of December.) Mr. ASHLEY, of Ohio, moved an amendment for the substitute proposed by Mr. Stevens. It was ordered to be printed. The first section declares that the State govern ments organized in the lately rebel States, exclud ing Tennessee, aie not valid constitutional govern ments, and that their acts are void. The second section authorizes the organization of constitutional State governments In each of such States, all male citizens over 21 years, residing therein lor six months, irrespective of race or for mer condition of servitude, to be electors. The third section imposes on electors an oath de claring that the person was, on the 4th of March, l;tl, willing to comply with the requirements of the President's proclamation of the eth of Decem ber, was at all times thereafter opposed to tb.e contiuuunce of the rebellion: never treated Feite ral prisoners otherwise than as lawful prisoners of wur, imd will henceforth bear true faith and allegiance to the government of the United States. It imposes on the delegates elected to the State conventions provided for, an additional oath that they have never voluntarily borne arms against the United States, and never held any otilce, civil or military, under the confederate govern ment. If the convention agree to adopt the con stitutional amendment, it is then to select five citi zens, distinguished foi their loyalty and fidelity to the Constitution and Union, who are to act as a provisional committee of public safety tor the State nntil a constitutional State convention shall assemble and elect a provisional Governor. Sixty days' notice is to be given of the election of dele gates to euch constitutional convention. The fourth section Invests such convention with full power and authority to form a constitution of State government; provided that such constitution ehall be republican, and not repugnant to the Con stitution of the United States; and provided fur ther, that It shall adopt an ordinance, forever irre vocable without the consent of Congress, declaring all persons free and equal before the law, repudi ating all debts contracted In aid of the rebellion, providing fez the maintenance of free public schools, lor the exclusion from all offices of honor or profit under the State government all persons who have held office under either of the recent re volutionary governments, State or confederate, and recognizing in Congress the right to compel the continuance of the State's relations with the United States. Section fifth makes it the duty of Congress to determine whether the conditions have been com plied with, and if so, and if Congress approve the constitution and ordinance adopted, the State is to be declared entitled to all the rights, privileges aud Immunities, and be subject to all the obligations and liabilities of a State in the American Union. Section twelve authorizes the Provisional Gov ernor to organize, arm and equip such military Jorce as he may deem necessary to keep the peace and enforce the laws and ordinances wheuever forcible resistance is made to his authority. Section thirteen authorizes the Provisional Go vernor to proclaim martial law and suspend the writ of habeas corpus whenever and wherever forcible resistance is made to the execution of civil process. Section fourteen authorizes the division of Texas Into two States. Section fifteen authorizes the Convention 'o dis pense, by a two-thirds vote, with that purt of the oath of delegates declaring that they have never held any civil office under the confederate govern TnenL Mr. PIKE, of Maine, spoke at some length upon the relations of Congress to the seceded S ates. The time for action bad come, and he for one was now ready to act. There were three plans pro posed to Congress for its consideration and action. Thote plans were: Eirst, The President' plan, which seemed to be the admission of the seceded States at once to a full participation iu the govern ment, treating them as if they had never been in rebellion. Second. The let-alone policy, which woald merely refute thein representation in the general government until they hud a dopted the constitu tional amendments, with perhaps the addition of negro suffrage; and third, Immediate action by Congress In superseding the governments of the lately rebel States, which were set up by the Pre si dent in lfti5, and establishing in their place, gov. ercments founded upon loyalty and universal suf frcge. It win not worth while to waste words on the President's plan; that was rtt aOjudv.-ala. The President bad expounded it fully to the people, and the mere he expounded it the more the people condemned it. The Democratio party had de serted the President, and there were literally no mourners at the grave of his plan. The second plan might answer if the rebel states would act; but not acting, it was oi no account as a plan for retocstroctior. . Some hud proposed a resolution pledging the Jlout to ttimh jfiejjjbera of jucu state as should adopt the constitutional amendment, but he pro tested against eny such aotion. H hud not b nind iiirarell to it, and would not do so. He would judge of Men State by Itself when the question came up for actlou. If any S ate adopted toe constitutional amendment and treated the colored population justly, he would vote for its admission; otherwise he would not. That question, however, was not likely to be a practical one, as tb lately rebl S ates, gave no Indication of a disposition to adopt the amendment. The only way left was for Con gress io act afflrtnatltely, snd taking one or two of the States, snch an might be found best fitted for the purpose, to sturt'lsh therein governments founded upon universal suffrage and loyalty. It was said that the Supreme Court would somehow Intervene snd declare (hat Congiess had no iiowr to do so. He was not Inclined to wait fur the opinion of the Supreme Court. Tha' Court should recollect that it had hkd bad luck with its political decisions. The people had heretofore determined to govern the country themselves, and let the Supreme Court attend to its law but iness. Congress was invested by the Constitution with the ultimate disposition both of the President and of the Supreme Court, and it should now act as if It was In earnest. There should be no restriction as to suffrage; there should be no question left unsettled. The negro should be treated fairly, and be would be found able to protect his own interests. If the govern ments to be founded in two or three of the States should be found to work well, then the next Con grees might apply the same plan of action to all the seceded Stales, and thus the Union would be finally re stored. Mr. BINGHAM, of Obto, moved to recommit the bill and pending amendment to the Joint Com mittee on Reconstruction. Without disposing of that motion, the House went into Committee of the Whole on the S-ate of the Union (Mr. Upson, of Michigan, la theCualr), on the President's annual message. Mr. KELLEY, of Pennsylvania, ma-fe an elabo rate speech cn finance, criticizing in detail the re cent report of the Secretary of the Treasury, and advocating two resolutions already ottered by himself, favoring the repeal of the five per cent, tax on uanufactuies, and the other condemning the doctrine of the Secretary that the debt of the country should be extinguished by the generation that contracted it. He pronounced the report of the Secretary a budget of inaptitudes, Incongrui ties and non-f eqriturs. It contained nothing to gratify the national pride of any American citizen. The Secretary boasted that our debt had been re duced iti,ooo,ooo in fourteen months. Yet this Immense sum was so much abstracted from the active working capital of the business men of the country. This amount had ben raised in large part by taxation on home productions, and thus foreign manufacturers had been benefited at the expense of the American laborer, and their vlcory over our struggling industries would be easy if the government continued the policy of assessing ex traordinary taxes for the extinguishment of the war debt. Already the large importations of for eign gcods were threatening our business men with bankrnptcy. The policy of attempting a speedy extinguish ment of the national debt was favored only by money lenders, speculators in government secu rities, and foreign manufacturers. The scheme of the Secretary was as unprecedented as unwise. The first Federal debt was funded in 1701, and for sixteen years no effort was made to reduce It. The average rate of payment from 1807 to 1HI2 was about Hfo.uoo.ooo per annum. After the debt had been largely increased by the war of le)12, no extra ordinary taxes werelmposed for Its redemption. The excess of ordinary revenues over current expenses was devoted to its absorption, and home Industry was stimulated by avowedly protective tariffs. England had never been guilty of the stupidity recommended by the Secretary of 'he Treasury. Not until seven years after the close of the Napoleonic wars had Great Britain at tempted the experiment of resumption of specie payments, and only within the present decade had she made any serious effort to reduce the principal of her debt. He commented sarcastically upon the opinion of the Secretary that the national debt should be speedily extinguished, that it may not remain as a "reminder to the southern people of humiliation and defeat.' The people of the south, while they might admire the tenderness of the Secretary's heart, knew that they themselves would be among the. (neatest sufferers from the accomplishment of bis financial scheme. He condemned the suggestion of the Secretary In favor of a reduction of the greenback currency. With a proper protective tariff there would be ample and profitable employment for all the cur rency authorized by law. Rapid contraction and an attempt at an early resumption of specie pay ments would bankrupt individuals, corporations, States, and it might be the national government. Mr. HOLMES, of New York, addressed the committee on the political relations of the la ely rebel States. He argued against the legality of the Stale organizations now existing there, and s lid it was for Congress to speak the word which should number those State organizations among the things that were, and to recognize as the people of the States, capable of establishing governments there in, those only, without distinction of race or color, who were true to the government of the United States In the honr of weakness and trial. The committee rose, and the Speaker resumed the chair. The SPEAKER presented memorials of territo rial Legislatures, us lollows: Of the Legislature of Dakota territory, as'.tlng that the territorial secretary be authorized to use what had been saved out of the appropriation tor legislative expanses in codifying the laws of the territory.

Read twice and referred to the Judiciary Com mittee. Mr. PAINE, of Wisconsin, Introduced a bill to provide for organizing, arming and disciplining the militia, and for other purposes.

Mr. GARFIELD, of Ohio, from the Committee on Ways and Means, reported a joint resolution granting additional compensation to certain em ployes in the civil service of the government at Washington. Read twice, and made the special order for Tuesday next. The SPEAKER presented Executive communi cations as follows: From the Secretary of War, in answer to the House resolution of December 17th, transmitting the report of the Chief of Engineers respecting the improvement of Chicago harbor. Referred, on motion of Mr. WENTWORTII, to the Committee on Commerce. From the Secretary of War, in answer to the House resolution of December 5th, transmitting portions of General Bibcock's report of the in spection of military posts made during the last season.

Referred to the Commit tee on Indian A flairs. On motion of Mr. ASHLEY, of Ohio, It was or dered ibat the proceedings of Friday and Stt- urday next be confined to debate on Mr. Stevens' lull. Mr. ELDR1DGE, of Wisconsin, offered the fol lowing as a question of privilege: Resolved, That the following resolution, Intro duced into the House of Representativi s, Decem ber 4ib, 1C'., by the Hon. Thaddeus Stevens, ex presses the conviction and sense of this House: "Resolved, That if any person in the employ ment of the United States, iu either the legitUuve or executive branch, shall propose to make peace, or shall accept or advise the acceptance of any such proposition on any other basis than the integ riiy aud entire unity of the United States aud their terrl'oiies, as they existed at the time of the rebellion, be will he guilty of a high crime," and that Hoiue bill 643 (the bill before the House thin morning) is cleaily in violation of the spirit of said resolution, and that the same does, In fact, as sert, or at least admit, that secessionists and rebels were successful in the dividing of the Union and destroying certain of the States of the United States as Stales of the Union, and degrading tbem into territories; and that the Hon. Thaddeus Ste veus, In and by the Introduction and advocacy of tha aid bill, has manifested a mind and hetirt dis loyal to the Constitution and Union of the St ites, as ihey existed at the time of the rebellion, aud Is gnil'y f f the crira specif) d in the said reoliiiion, and, ibejeuje, deserves the reprobation of lui House, Mr. ASHLEY, of Ohio, objected to themtro doouon 1 1 trie resolution.
