Mr. Sunni er (M ass.) offered a resol u tion re quest--

compatible witlrthe public-interests, to coaimuui
»cate any correspondence in his pos.~esMon relative
>to a reciprocity treaty between me United Suites

Mr... Howe (Wis.) offered a resolution instructing
the Secretary of the Interior to sell at public auc
tion all public books and documents in lit*
Adopted. - /
The bill equalizing the pay of United States -
soldiers was uiken up on motion of Mr. Wilson.
Mr. Fessenden (MeJ) was opposed to making the
*>UI retrospective m its character though lx* was in
favor of placing colored troops cn the s-vme looting
as other troops iVom and aiter i>s passage. °
Mr. Wilson thougnt the bill should be a retro
spective one, for the troops in. the colored regiments
had been assuied before they were mustered into
the service that they wouia receive the same pay
and-be placed on an. equal looting with white*
troops. The gross acts of injustice foretoiore
done to this portion cf our soldiery should be rec
tified . ....
/Mr. Ten Eyck (N.J. ) thought this a matter of
justice. fi thtse. colored men had been promised
certain things by our war authorities, iibecatneour i
duty to legalize and recognize the promises held ’
out to them. These were sufficient reasons to in- ?
duce him to vote for the bill.
Mr.. Bane (Kansas) supported the retrospective
character of the bill.
Mr, Fessehdenstud that the troops raised by Gen.
Hunter had no pledge from the Government This
bill proposilh a. very loose mode oi legislation. Re
cruiting oflieers were’prone to offer inducements
not auUioi=zed by law, to promote enlistments. It
officers had undertaken. to promise colored regi
ments more tnan ten dollars per month it was i>om
a misapprehension of the law. It would inn be
proper id legislate to pay more than we have eon
traded to pay. He thought that from the passage
of this bill all our soldiers, without regaru tocoio--,
should be placed on ah equal footing.
As to paying what the Government did not a*
present owe these colored men, under its contract
With them, be was opposed to it.
Mr. Conness (Cal.) did not think the Treasury
could aflord to make this bill ivtrosp'eetive. lie
would propose an amendment giving thorn pay
after the passage «1‘ this act.
Mr. Pomeroy (Kansas) thought tho Treasury of
the United States was always sufficient to provide
for an act of justice.
Mr. Coi.ness would inquire -whether tins act
would cause the rebels to acknowledge the colored
troops as soldiers. '
Mr. Pomeroy replied that the effect of the act
would be the acknowledgment of colored troops as
leal soldiers.
Mr. Qouness regarded thts as a proposition in
volving money and nothing more. It was a ques
tion as io.the payment of a certain amount of mo
ney under a contract.
(Kansas) said the Government was
•under a moral, if not a legal obligation, to redeem'
its obligations to the colored troops.
Mr. Coijness, .would desire, that the Senator
should, introduce a separate bill for the purpose.
Mr. "Wilson, (Mass.) stated thepieseui uuraber
of colored troops in the field and in tnc depart
ments would reach the number of SU,bOU. These
had been, mostly enlisted withiu the last six
months.
Mr. Doolittle (Wis.) believed that the Govern
ment should act in good laith to these soldiers.
Atjaie same time there were considerations which
should lead ns to act cautiously in this matter.
There were many while soldiers in the army who
■hadiserved without receiving the bounties given
to subsequent reel tUts. If we adopt this bill we
shotild give the old soldiers similar benefits.
Mr. Fessenden calculated that this bill in its
-retrospective action would incur an expense of
a million and a half dollars.
Mr. Dooiftie.sugges.ed that as the wives aud
ohi.dren of many of our colored troops were being
supported by the Government, they should not
Tecei ve the same bounty and pay as white recruits,
whose families were dependent upon them for
•support •
On madoa of Mr. Fessenden, the 1 Senate the.n
proc eqed to fclie consideration of the House
Bevenue bill, with the. amendment proposed by
the Senate Finance Committee.
Mr. Hendricks (Ind.) moved an amendment
.reducing the tax on distilled spirits to a uniform
■rate af 40 cents instead of 80. He argued at length
to show thatrhe proposed tax discriminated against
an article of Northwestern production while it did
not affect the productions of other sections. He
■thought that in a few years, when the currency’
should become reduced, liquor would not stand
such.a tax as that now proposed. He did not con
sider this a fair mode of legislation towards the
Northwestern States.
Mr. Fessenden replied that we should tax an
article to .obtain revenue according to what it
“would bear. He thought the article of liquor
would bear the tax proposed by the Finance Com
xaitte'e. The tax would fall upon tbe consumer
' wherever it was used. The tax imposed in Eng.
laud Vwas more than double this, and yet no one
was injured or complained. It it wa* used as an
'article of manufacture in the Atlantic States, the
tax fell there. Mr. Fessenden ceprecated any
sectional feeling in great measures like this. The
bill originated in no sectional spirit.
Mr. Hendricks would say that no one deprecated
sectional issues more than himself, and as a
Senator he could not givea votefor a bill imposing
burdens unequally on any particular section of
the country, as he thought such a course would
tend to sever tbe Union of the States. The North
west had not, nor would it refuse to bear its ful
share of tbe burden of this war.
flTbe debate was continued at length by Messrs.
Cowan, Johnson, Howe, Grimes, "Doolittle,
Harlan, and others.
Mr. Hendricks’s amendment wj s rejected.
Mr. Doolittle moved to recommit tbe bill to the
Finance Committee, with instructions to i>pon a
proviso taxing liquors on'hand prior to July Ist
twenty cents' per gallon. This was rejected by the
following vote: .
Yka.B—Messrs. Anthony, Brown, Chanter,
JDooliitle. Foot, Foster, Grimes, liarlan, How

that when the Seuate adjourns it be until Monday.
The Senate went into executive session, and
afterwards adjourned.
House.—On motion of Mr. Schenck (Ohio) a
resolution was adopted calling on"the Secretary of
the Navy to communicate thereportof the advisory
•board of July, lfc62; to establish and equalize the
grade of line officers of the-Navy, together with
the instructions to safdboard, and all documentary
testimony, memorials and protests of those who

-and other papers and proceedings connected

On motion of Mr. Bennett, the Committee on
‘Territories was instructed to take, into considera
tion the propriety of passing a law to prevent the
wanton destruction of buffalo during the spring
■and summer months.
Mr. Hale (Pa.) from the Committee on Claims,
reported a Dill providing, for ascertaining and
adjusting claimsagainstthe Government for injury
; and destruction o! property by military authority
during the present rebellion.
On motion of Mr. Noble, the Committee on
Pensions was instructed to, take into consideration
the propriety of giving bounty lands to all soldiers
In the present army who have been or may be
.honorably discharged, and also to the soldiers
-engaged in the Oregon and Indian wars.
Mr. Ambrose W. Clark, from the Committee on
Priming, reported a joint resolution that there be
printed 10,000 copies of the Diplomatic Corres
pondence "accompanying the President’s Mes
sage, for the use of the State Department,
Mr. Davis (&ld.) said this was the only mode
the Government had to enlighten the public mind
•of Europe. It this was hot allowed, no one could
oeny we should be driven to the disreputabie
measures ot the rebels, namely, that of buviug
“up the public press of Europe. By distributing
the documents through the State Department, •ft
■would have all the weight of an oliieial deelara
-tion.
Mr. Tames C.AUen (IH.) asked the Chairman
of the Printing Committee to include in the order
the printing of 10,001) additional copies ot McClel
lan’s Report. We are, he said, annoyed to death
lay inquiries for it, not from individuals i n the
Western country, but from officers of the anuv
Mr. Ambrose W. Clark said a copv of
McClellan’s report would soon bb ready for dis
tribution.
Mr. Wilson understood the diplomatic corres
pondence is already primed and ready for distri
bution among members. lie wanted to know.the
cost of printing additional copies, as the type was
•distributed.
Mr. Pomeroy (N. Y.) remarked that the thou
sand eop.es heretofore ordered to be i»rinted for the
«se or the State Departments was not enough for
I “the purposes of distribution intend* d. It was im
portant that copies should be sent abroad, in/ordcr
I’to a better understanding of our diplomatic affairs
forthel-st year. The public artem-i* ri bad been
drawn to the suuject of foreign intervention more
; than to anv other. It was the rock !on which our
•enemies thought vfe would split ail’d tueir pros
perity be established. There was no subject on
which the people had more right i-n oemand infor
mation than on our foreign relations.
Mr. we know, just
for curiositynow much the printing will cost;
Mr. Poineroy replied, that the question was
whether additional copies shall be printed or not
Mr. Stevens proposed that instead of “one thou
sand, two thousand copiesottnose already printed
be. gixeji for. Jbe use. of. the State, .Department.. • He
wa* quite sure the House did.not want seven thou
sand copies. - Bi sides,'the printing , expenses had
'nn ut» a millUn and a quarter of dollars the past
year aud had become alarming..
Mr. lavis (JUd.) said if the House was disposed,
to hifgie.as 10 the- sum tor bringing our diplomatic
lorre.-poi-dence before the nations of Europe, let
11 cm fio so. ,
T 1 o House then passed the resolution for print

Mr. (Vt.) iu the course of his argu
ment said if we eohcene the rebels to be alien eue
mies, we concede their territory to be alien terri
tory: burif we adopt the theory that, they are not
uiii of the t/hicii, then confiscation becomes a mu
nicipal regulation; to operate practically on the

Mr Cox'moved to lay the joint resolution on the
tame The que&ticn was decidedin the negative l>y
a vote_of 71 against'B3.
Mr. Kernan (N. Y.) opposed the pending roso
lulionj'nnd asked-the gentleman on the Repub
lican side lo pause and reflect whetlu-rconfiscation

GovemiiiPi;t. Let us not make this a war of coti
qiu s-t, a war of extermination, affecting six cr
eijjhi millions ot people. J.ct not tneir lands gp

not to strengthen it,but to fatten off the plunder. ’
I J »e would prosecute ithe war for the purpose of
putijr-g down rebellion, and ns far as possible re
store peace mid hai .uony to ail sections.
Mr._ Wilson ssud the'policy-of confiscation is
embodied iff the liviug law of the land, aud there
fore, was. i-otbeioroth6Hoj.se. Ail that had been
saio -by the Oj ponents of The resolution was a waste
of iirue. I!e would not be hared beyond the mea
sure [of the hour, but his patience had been ex
hausted by tilt eltcrts here to shield the traitors
from!the penalty- of their crimes. The griuk-itfan
•(Mr.; Cox) had. furnished the rough mat*riaL out
of which all,the success in opposition had been
madP by those who had be*-n sailing in the craft
belonging*to the Confederate navy.
Mr. Cox said- the gentleman from lowa was

Mr "Wilson resumed. ..He snd the resolution
was siiictiy in accordance with the Constitution,
ami yet g«‘Lt:cff.en on the other side imposed it,
with all their professed reven-.nce for she Consii
ttitiui; and their willingness to leave'such import

Tfaitofs Ijiaii m> right to expect to be shielded from
ihe cintnquences of their crimes. The rebellion
was Lof to be crushed ' out by oflVring olive
brunches, *:.r by utterance cf honeyed words, even
fit-m ihc'iips ut members of Congiess. While cmi
tUnn nv ere thus talking here lor the benefit, of

Southern States ns.ued from a remorseless aris

elevated to its ju*t dignity, and such liistitmions

Mr P« nd!eton moved to reconsider the vote bv
whit-h the previous question was ordered on the
passage oi the-rcsclmion. f ihis motion was laid
upon the table by two majority.
The Speaker announced the question on the p.vs
sagt 1 of the joint n-solmion, when Mr. Voorhces
moved the House adjourn, aud Mr. Cravens that
the House adjourn nil Monday.
These questions and others, evidently designed
to si«v*- off action on the confiscation resolution,
occupied more itihn an hour, the vote-being tanea
by yetis and nays.
Mr. Du'vi* (Md.), at 4 45 o’clock, said that if
these iRctH-s were continued by the opposition it
was evident that they could do nothing tu-day,

CITY COUNCILS. -
The regular stated meeting of Councils was held
yesterday afternoon.
SELECT BRANCH.
Mr. King, on behalf of the Democratic members,
presumed a protest against the action of the
Chamber on Monday last, at the special meeting,
w hen Directors of Railroad Companies were elect
ed. as illegal, subversive of the rights of the mi
nonty. It, was alleged that as the Chamber ad
journed on Thursday without a quorum, and as
the meeting of Monday was a continuation of the
elated meeting, the proceedings were irr*-gumr,
the only question .shouldwbave been upoo the reso
lution to go into joint Convention. Instead of mis
ihe President ol the Chamber iuvited the members
to proc* ed to the other Chamber.
'I he piotesi was amended to irefer onlv to the
North Pennsylvania Railroad, tile Act of*Abs.*m
bly requiting the election to be Xu January, uud
not in February. Tlie protest was then re
corded.
A petition was received from the Neptune Hose,
for a lire alarm telegraph box: also, oue irom the
Reliance Engine Company, to be located as a Steam
Fire Engine Company: also, one from the Morns
Hose, to be located as a Steam Farcing Hose Com
pany, all of which wen* referred.
Mr. .Miller called up ibe ordinance irorn Com
mon Council, authorizing a loan of two millions
of dollars, to aid enlistments. The bill caused
some discussion,- no: as to the appropriation or the
amount, hut as to the mode of enlistments,and the
crsdits to the wards. .
Mr. Wethtnll referred to the fact that while tbi>
appropriation would conic out.of the tax-payers
oi the uly, some of the wards would secure re
eruits;and till their quotas., while others remain
unfilled, and yet the cuizens ot these unsuccessful
wards would have to furnish the-same amount of
money as the successlul wards.
Mr. BiighUy .suggested that the remedy
was with the general Government, which
rhottld oiler the bounties and not the cities. If.
the bounty came from the general Government
the expuue would be distributed over oil the
people.
Dr. Übler said that if the ‘Ward ComUltt-es
were Mopped,, there would be a cessation ot indi
vidual exertions, which was now securing so mauy
soldiers. ’ 1
Th* ordinance then passed as it came from Com
mon Council.
•Mr. Wetiierilj offered a resolution instructing
ihe Commissioners of the Bounty Fund to ieport
whether iris desirable to so arrange the quotas or
the patnh’iit of bounties in such a manner as to
equalize the credits to the wards. Adopted. ’
Mr. Miller offered the following:
JResolvedy That wV pledge the faith of the city
jo continue the payment of sifeh bounties as may
be proper from time to time, so long as a draft can
be prevented in that wav, believing that it is pro
per and right that those who do not enlist them
selves and goto the field, should be generous to
those ' who peril their lives for - the countr)-.
Adopted.
Mr. Wfetherill submitted an account showing
that the city owed a balance of $301,549 to the Com
monwealth, on the tax upon real and personal es
ra>e, with the explanation that the amount of the
city’s indebtedness originated from the difference
in the rate of assessment by the Board of Commis
si antra and the rate adopted by the Assessors.
Referred to Committee on Finance.
Mr. Miller, from the Committee on Defence and
Protection, submitted a report stilting that an ap
plication had been submitted from the Trustees of
the Gas Works, asking the return of .$15,000 ex
.pended by the Trustees to aid the families of volun
teers who left the "works to enlist. Thq. committee
reported an ordinance, making such an appropria
tion. Adopted.
The same Committee reported an ordinance to
facilitate a survey of the city of Philadelphia. J by
United states officers. Postponed and ordered to
be printed.
1 r. Uhler submitted, an ordinance, miking an
appropriation ot SMIO, for the purpose df supply

may be necessary for the proper dressing of such
cases of wounds or injury as mav occur in the

Mr.; Miller offered a resolution, referring to the
Committee on Finance the item in the report of the
Committee to verify the cath' accounts of City

alleges the improper* appropriation of $4,400.
Adopted.
The ordinance locating "steam fire engines was
takes up. ’ The Washington Fire Company of
rrankford, tbe Humane Hose Company, and
Washington Engine Company of Germantown,
were added to the list, but as this was considered

COMMON BRANCH.
Tberesignation of John S. Painter,’of the Six
teenth Ward, was received and accepted.
Mr-. Gray, of the Committee on Finances re
ported an ordinance to aid enlistments. Accompa
nying the _ report was! a communication from
tbe Bounty ’.Fund Commission, stating tha
the appropriation, for/bounties is nearly ex
trusted. Provision wav “Made for. five thdu

to four•• thousand four hundred and sixty-threi
only a few of whom are veterans, j. Thera ar
several, thousand Philadelphian veterans re
enlisted who wQi claim and. are entitled fo the
bounty, and hew recruits are coming in at the rate
ol one hundred'and fifty to two hundred per day.
The Commission say -that unless some .provision
Is made, the -payments of bounties will have to
cease ; and it is suggested that provision be m ule
lor five thousand more men, so tbatthe Co.umis
sion may eontinufe ttunr labors until something
definite is ascertained in regard to the quota of the
city. ,
The ordinance reported appropriates two mil
lions to pay a bounty of’two hundred dollars to all
who are enlisted and credited to Philadelphia.
Mr. Kern moved to strike out 52,000, 000 and in
sert- 53,025, (;00. The reason lor that, he said, is
that the quota of the city, under the two last calls,
is 39;500 men, and as provision has only bean made
for a,000,' the increased amount will be necessary.^.
Mr. Gray honed that the amendment wonld not
prevail. If it.is importantthat the appropriation
be made at once, and if the amount is increased it
might meet with objection in Select Ooir.fcil, and
it was also doubtful whether the Mayor would
sign it. \ ■
Mr. Bonghlin advocated the amendment.

Mr. Evans moved the protest be not received.
Mr Longhiin was ol the opinion tliat it was the
rig Bt ot the minority to present a.protest, taking
excep iou to the action ol the Chamber.
The chair so decided, and ruled the motion of
Mr Evajis out.of or«fi*r.
Mr. Evans then, withdrew his motion to not re
ceive the protest, aud proved that it lay uoo.ii the
table. .This the Chair also ruled out of order.
Mr. Evans’ appealed from the decision of the
Chair, and was directed to.reduce bis appeal to
writing, which was done.
Mr. Longbhu moved the appeal be laid upon the
table, which \v*s not agreed to— yeas 10,nays.U
Mr. Bribes said he bad signed the appeal of Mr
EvniiN and regretted that the circumstances oom
p«-»led him to do so. The language of the protest
was such as should r.ot go upon the minutes.
Whilst the minority had rights, opportunity should
not be -siren lor the manifestation of political
sj.Jeen by entering upon the journal, which was
the property'of the Chamber, language placing the
majority in the light of ■revolutionists.
Mr. Loughliii replied to Mr. Briggs, and said he
would iiot take back one word of the protest as of
fered. Ke insisted upon lus right tohave it entered
upon the journal, aud hoped , the decision of the
chair would be sustained. .
> The President here called Mr. Kerr to the chair,
ana addressed the Oh:unb» r, giving, as his reason
for th* decision the ft. ho wing rule from Ziegler’s
Manual, 1 which governs this body:
‘•lf a member desire?, lie may enter at large
upon the journals the reasons-which hare inllu
enced h.m in giving the vote he doe's. It is true,
i onrse is not often pursued, but the right ex
ist?, and it t anret be talAn away from the mem
ber who wishes to exercise it. To place reasons
upon the journals for votes given requires not the
ernsrnt ot the honse % for the rule gives the right;
but it is always usual tor the member or members
to rise in their place and state to the house tha*
they vt-11 place the treason? for their votes upon
the journal.”
Tlii*.appears to be conclusive. He did no
regard the language cf the protest so disrespectful
as nor to allow its beinc entered on the journal,
and he had ruled accordingly
Mr. Briggs, upon leave granted, again tQok the
ficor. He was of ti e opinion that the protest was
a stigma upon the majority, charging them almost
with .-reason ; and, belonging as he did, to the law
and order party, v;heu an attempt was made to
put th*--m in-a reverse position, he protested against
such a oarse.
The question was then taken, «« Shall the deci
