    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.
"VVe do. ht-re to discover logues so much as
for the purpose of legislation'against rogues.
Their discovery is merely inc. dental.

HOUSE OF REPAESEKTATIVE!
Mr. Griimell. (Iowa) ottered a preamble declar
ing that: Whereas-, The war policy of the Goverr -
xnent has brought into the service as soldrets and
laborers, colored men and persons claiming to be
3ield as slaves by rebels, and who have rendered
valuable service to the army*, And whereas-, tbe
■further t-inployment of colored troops would re T
lieve the demands for Northern labor, and pre
vent men of that section from being taken from,
their' homes and industrial pursuit;' therefore,
be it , >
Beiolved, That a more vigorous policy, in order
io secure a larger number of persons of African
descent in tbe army Would meet the approbation
of this House.

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

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.
