CTT VIIITH CON&BES3—FIBST SESSION. CLOSK OF YESTEEDAT S PEOCEipINGS. BENATE. Mr. Davie (Ey.) rose to a privileged question,; And explained at length the action he had taken in regard to the expulsion of Mr.- Bright, aud Uis col-; league, JVir. Powell. He thought Mr, Morrillkad departed from his usual courtesy aud magnanimity in introducing these subjects in the mauuer he did. In resolution to expel Mr. Bright, he .admitted that a Senator could not be expelled for his Words or opinions, but only lor his acts, iiis, .resolution for the expulsion- of Mr, Bright was based upon-the fact that that gentleman had' vrrit- : ten a letter to Jeff. Davis as Presided t of the touth- -era Confederacy 1 , recommending to him a pprsou whohad an improved weapon, to be jased. against rthe lawful Government of the United States; and .also because Mr. Bright had uniformly , voted against all measures to carry on the war. ,As to the Confiscation bill-introduced by him, which was referred to by Mr. Morrill, it was a substitute for -a bilLentirely prospective in its.character. His, ybill proposed an adjudication in the Courts of the -country, and intended to forfeit the .estates of .•traitors only duringtho lifetime of the offender. Mr. Davis said that, in his .remarks on this bill,' .he liad unintentionally done his colleague (Mr. _Powelj) injustice. He was satisfied that they were only at variance as to the proper mode of meeting sthe movements of the rebels-, He held that, the peo ple had an indisputable right 10 organize their o wn government, butif they refused to do so.it became s. matter of necessity and principle, as .decided “by .Chief Justice Marshall, for the United States to •establish a civil government for them. -Mr."Foote(Yt./introduced the joint resolutions •Of the Legislature of Vermont, in ravor of the con struction of a ship canal from the Mississippi ariver to the eastern seaboard. Also, the 1 joint re solution of the same body, to secure equal pay to •all soldiers now in the service of the United States. Also the joint resolutions ot the same body,'.to secure the.transmission of soldiers’ pack ages through the mails on the cam's terms as other ** packages are sent. Mr. Saulsburv presented the credentials of Geo. Head - . Kiddie, Senator' elect lrom Delaware, in ‘place of Mr. Bayard, resigned. A message was - received - from the President of the United States transmitting the, report ot the Sfcr -tary of State in an>wer to a resol . t\on of the .Senate respecting the correspondence with the au thorities of.Great.Britain in reference to the pur suit ox hostile bands :of SiouxVlndians into the Hudson's Ba- taritories. Mr. V ilson (Mass.) introduced a bill to provide •for the examination of quartermaster--, assisiau •quartermasters commissaries and assistant com missaries,paymasters ard assUtant paymas'e s, which was lefirred to the. Committee on- Military Affairs. Hr. Johnson (Bid.) presented tbe report of the. •defence cori>mittee of Baltimore, praying for reim bursement for expenses for erilreucumsii ts thrown xip around .that. city. Befenvd to' the Committee •on Military Affairs.- .. ' Mr, DcolitLle ( vVis.) .called up his resolution, presented a few days -ago, sting the depart, ments, the conduct of whose ajlfsiirs was a. ■of investigation, to detail a pes on from the re spective cepartments to appear belore the Commit tee of tho fcentfie, to confront the witnesses and to cross-examine them. - • Mr. Doolittle, in explanation of his resolution, • said that the appearance of such agents would not only be a inatjter of convenience to the committee, but an act of justice to the head -of a depa*tment. "We were bound to presume that the head 6f a de partment is as. much interested in ferreting ou». • abuses as a Committee of thefienate. Hr. ; Trumbull (low a); tho ugh t that this resolu tion was a very singular one. Heretofore the de paitments hallways been “ready, to communicate any informatioh or send their officers belore tic Senate, and he did not understand that there was any difficulty at present in obtaining either persons or papers . Mr. Df olittle said he was prompted to take this action mainly from the factjthat he had been ap v pointed to act upon one of these committees of in- He was associate d on a committee with the Senator from Hew Hampshire, who h.Hrt asserted that the liberties of the coantry were in a-» .great danger from thearmy of plunderers who be set the Treasury as from any armed rebels. He thought it only just to the head of the Navy de partment that some person should be present at the investigation to explain matters that would be in quired into. Mr.j Grimes, (Iowa) approved ofMr. Doolittle' s resolpti :n. it was desirable that 1 we should get at the facta; and discover whether or not can be devised to secure honesty in the navy contract system. ■ The Navy. Department was peculiarly constructed. It toi k a man at least a year to understand its oiganizition. The proposition was simply that the Department should detail one rf its officers to meet yie Com mittee of Investigation in reference to the matt9r« ' -to come before it’ It was eminently proper that -this should be done, because it is not to be supposed that the members composing the committee ajre as -conversant with the details of the Naval Bureau xs those who have been long c nnected with it. 'Witnesses before the committee might in a truthful statement convey erroneous impressions, unlesi .questioned by experts. Mr.Grimes,(lowajproceeded at length, to defend the pr-sent Naval Bureau and read a letter frora T)cnald McKay iu reference to the ccmparaiivo me’its of the vessels of our own and of Joreizn natives.. .Mr. McKay, in this letter, styles Mr. Dickerson as an enthusiast—a monomaniac—with-' Out established reputation as an engineer _or maval const’ uctor. I Mr’* Grimes attributed our failure to capture the Alabama and other piratical vessels more to th£s interference of neutraißowers tliau from any lack of speed - Jour cruisers, and cited several head. If it be the pur pose of the Commit'ee to ascertain ihe facts and no to overhaul everybody, then let sqme one repressing the in question bspresent Ibefore the committee to interrogate the witnesses.

The house resumed the consideration of the bill -.reviving the grade of Lsutenant-General. • Mr. .Garfield (Ohio) said there was nothing to be *done by a l ieutenant-General which theG-eneral in-Cbiefbimselfcoulduotdo. The President has > a lull range of all the generals, and can select any one of ibemtfo act in the latter capacity. The bill did hot give him power in addit-on to what he.now Siad', better wait until the war is over ani we see wnKt general towers above all others, and .give to liimihe -brevet as a crown of merit. The sea J e is now eliding. The general elevated to- day may be down. to-morro w. They all kne w what general would probably be appointed under this .bill—a man who towers above others at this ■time, and justly £o. Bothe would ask tbe Hense, in view ot our necessities, whether it wbuid pi* proper to recall him and make bim a bureau,officer in V asliington. Would it not beian act of the greatestVunger to caH him to this oily for service’ *, Mr. Fsrnswoith replied, that while it was true tsorae generals who; are elevated Todaymay be down to-morrow, it was not true of the - general for __><?whojn this honor was intended. His star has been . ■vcons’antly rising. He became greater day’by day, And by,bis masterly ability he ?t:tndsa head and •' fshouluera abd* n e,l other iu the. army. bad been tried long enough to go down to pos . Verity with most-bn Ilian: militroy honors, aud he 'hasdone enough to entitle hinno tbe prize. Tt did hoi necessarily Tcllpw that if Grant shall be elected be- would be brough* io Washington, to bUbnsfncs?*..Me expect d (sran: would • fstill command the Jinny, and woul l bas eii to -points where bis skill aiid his voice are required. Spaulding (Ohio) inquired whether the bill -contemplated that the Lieutenant-General should Actually take command and replace the G-enerai dn-Chief X! so he would vote for it. - j Mr. 9TEEdsworth .replied dhat *the hill provided that the Lieutenant-GenejuUshaU . command the • armies ol the United States. . i '• ' ■■■ - „ Mr, Schehck(Ohid) announced his purpose tov *jTT7TLIj BE PUBLISHED IN A FEW DAY;?♦ vote for the bill. He' desired t> he understood a? • -wV • ■ • • not-svifliiic to iiEtruot the for an the ' MS. HENRY "WOOD’S LAST BOOK, latter should rest the.responsibility of making the • ’ ;f ; selection. -If the president, eighteen months ago, had been authorized to confer this brevet rank of Lieut.Gsrjeral,it would have been.conferred upon Mcfchllan,or,subsequently upon General Meade, or upon Rosecrans, and new it may be. upon Giant, so variable are the fortunes o£*war. He (Mr- Schenclc) was "unwilling to-entfer into any discussion concernin g the merits of any of the gen erals. He repeated, he should vote for the bill, simply on the ground that it might be considered better for the organization of tiiharmy that such an oflice shouldi exist. ' Mr. Stevens could not see the necessity for the passage of the bill, as the President now has the power to appoints from: among the generals, a General-in-Chief of ilie army. . If . tne present General-in-Cliief is Dot satisfactory,' the President: hasjtull power to appoint another. There was no -TTeccssity for the passage of the bill, .unless it was to censure the President for not making'such a change. This bill proposed that the selection of a j Lieutenant General should hot be. made from a lower grade than that of? Major General; but if t soldiers of a lower grg.de were batter qualified,;au opportunity should be allowed to select from them —in other words, ilrom the ,mo st able and merito-: rioti , withoutregard to rank. A general’s repu-- tuUcn ct-perided upon his success. The failure to succeed h. a loss of reputation. The Houseshould wdita while beforepassingabillof this character. Mr. Bovd (Mo.) favored the appointment of.a Ln-uiens-hi-Gtiitral if it would have the effect' of superseding Gen. Halieck as G enera^_ i n "^i l^'l: Mr.' (111.) said .the bill pending', pointed so distinctly to a distinguished general that no one conla misunderstand it He could not conceive the reason; for opposing the reviving the grade of Lieutenant-General. What wouldhave been-the position of affairs and our status In the present rebellion if it nad not been for the services ofGen. Grant—*a manwho wonLdnot'be. surpassed in history' for the brilliancy oi his achievements in the field. Two years ago a tide of calumny and detraction stvept over this great general, and when he (Washburne) rose to dof-nd him he believed he had not the sympathy of a single man here. He would appeal io the past as well as the pregont. history of the country to say whether every pre diction lie bad then made as to General Grant had no* beeniuily verified. . Mr. Wasiiburne briefly reviewed General Grunt’s career from Eelmont to Lookout Moun tain, claiming that he captured more prisoners than any man m modern times, as well as more guns, from the enemy,-and he did that which en titled him to the gratitude of all hearts in the West, by re-openiug the great channel of-the Mis si-sip.pi river. GenerahGrant has led your ay mtfs-on to victory. He "has inspired his soldiers witii those great principles and abilities and en thusiasm wiiuli'belong to him. He would never* leave tie* field.. but would ever-be where his pre sence is most needed and where duty calls. - Mr. Hubbard (Conn.) said that as the war was 101 ended, ether battles had to be*fought. Som-» g« ii.T P rm n here doubted the expediency of passing the bill under consideration at the preeut time, believing that all the generals should have an op portunity to compete for the great prize.' Mr. Washburne thirl be would tell his friend that.ihe w;yr would never be till we have a fighting Genera 1 , to lead our armies. That’s what’s tlie matter. [Laughter, and voices, ‘‘You .are •rifht.”] , Mr. Buutwell (Mass.) was opposed to the bill, not because he was opposed to Gener.U Grant being honored., but because the. war was not ended, and such an appointment might create sSctioual ciivis.ioi.s in the armyl He desired the selection, to be postponed till the termination.of hostilities. Mr. Garfield (Ohio) moved that the bill and {imeftdnu-nts he laid, on* the table. Not agreed to —veas 15):‘nays U 3. ’ . Mr. Eos? (Ul.) ofTeretLan amendment respect fully recommending jyfajor-Gener.il - pbsili.cn of Lieuienafft-Gener.-il. . This was agreed to by a vote of 111 yeas to IT nays, namely: Messrs. Ashley, Broomall, Bailey*, Clay, Davis, (>ld.) Briggs, Garfield, Grider, Hale, Higby. Hotchkiss, Hubbard, (Conu.) Julian. Longyear, Cannon, Upson and Williams. The-, bill was then passed by a vote of ‘.*•6 against 41, , 1 It provides that the grade of Lieutenant-General is revived in the army of the' United States; and authorizes the President, whenever he shall deem it expedient, to appoint, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, a commander of the army, to be selected during the war from among these officers in the military service of the United States,- not below the grade of Major-General, most distinguished for courage, skill and ability, and who being commissioned as Lieutenaut-' General shall be authorized, under the direction of the President; to command the armies of the United states. The Lieutenant-General appointed in the manner approved shall be entitled to the pay, allowances and.'-staff -specified in the fifth action of the act approved May 2s» 171*s; and also :he allowance described in the sixth section of the act approved August 23, J 5.4- granting additional rations to certain officer*. Provided that nothing, in this bill shall be construed in any way to affect, the rank, pay or allowances of Winfield Scott, Lienfcnant-Gcneral by brevfet, now on the list of the army; and Oongr* {8 respectfully recom mend Major-General Graut. to the position of Lieutenant-General under this bill. . The House then went into Committee of the . "Whole on the State of the' Union, Mr. Dawes . (Ma c s.) in the chair, and proceeord to the consi deration of the special order, being the Seua’e bill, as reported from the House Military Com mittee, with the amendments amendatory to the \ enrolhnentact.
