XXXVIIXTH CONGRESS.—FIRST SEBSIO3T
CLOSE Off YESTERDAY'S PROCEEDINGS.
SENATE.
Mr. Collamer reported back the bill in relation
to railroads in New Jersey, and asked that the
committee be discharged from its further conside
ration, and that;it be referred to the Judiciary
Committee.
Mr Trumbull objected to such a disposition of
the bill. ' ..
Mr. Collamer said that this bill created a high
way for the Government and the great question
arose whether the power exists to create it against
the action of a State which had chartered these
railroads.
Mr. Powell (Ky.} thought that the bill was al
ready before the proper committee. Other Sena
tors concurred in this opinion.
The Senate Telused to reier the bill to the Judi
ciary Committee, after considerable debate..
On motion of Mr. "Wilson, it was ordered to lie
upon the table.
Mr. Davis (Ky.) introduced a bill to ascertain
the amount of the losses sustained by the loyal
States during the war, and especially those sus-
the citizens .of Kentucky. Referred to
the Committee on Claims.
The House bill making hn appropriation of $l2, -
000 for the rebuilding of the President* s stable was
passed. .
Mr. Sumner introduced an act to indemnify the
■owner of the' British schooner Glen, which was
passed.
Mr. Wilson (Mass.) called up the House bill re
viving the grade of Lieutenant General in the
Army, with the amendments adopted by the Mili
tary committee. These amendments strike out the
clause of the Honse bill authorizing the Lieuten
ant General appointed nndertheact to command
the armies of the "United States, and the clause re
commending the appointment by the President of
Major General Grant for the position.
A long "debate ensued upon the amendments
proposed by the committee. j
Messrs. Trumbull, Richardson, Doolittle, Sher
man and Howe supported the original House
bill as an act of justice to Gen. Grant. They cha
racterized the bestowal of the title, without the
command incident to it, as an empty honor con
ferred upon one who to-4ay had the homage of
the people.
The amendments of the Senate committee - were
supported by Messrs. Johnson, Anthony, Nes
mith, Wilson. Grimes, Lane(lnd.), and others.
Mr. Conncss proposed to amend the Senate bill
relative"to Lieut. General by adding, “who shall
bn General-in-Chief of the Armies of the United
States, under the direction of the President, and
who shall remain in chief command during the
pleasure of the President.**
Without coming to a vote the Senate adjourned
until to-morrow.
HOUSE Off REPRESENTATIVES.
Mr. Stevens (Pa.), from the Committee on Ways
and Means, reported a bill appropriating S2U, UUU
to pay taxes, on certain government lands. Re
ferred to the Committee of the Whole on the State
of the Union.
Mr. Chanler (N. Y.) offered a resolution de
claring the means of railroad travel, and espe
cially between New York and Philadelphia, as
notoriously inconvenient and inadequate; and in
structing the Committee on Military Affairs to
inquire into the expediency of increasing the faci
lities for the transportation of troops between New
York and Washington.
Mr. Brooks (N. Y.) would not object ta the re
solution if it was referred to the select committee
jon the subject. y.y
Mr. Washburne (111.) was glad that New YBFk
was moving in the matter.
Mr. Chanler modified his resolution for the select
•committee to make the inquiry, and u was passed.
Mr. fcmith (Ky.) offered a resolution directing
the payment of fifteen hundred dollars to A P.
Yield, as payment in full up 10 the time the House
rejected his claim as a representative from Loui
siana.
After, some debate this was adopted by a vote of
79 to 63.
The House then went into Committee of the
Whole on the bill amendatory of the Enrollment
Act.
The pending amendment was that of Mr. Ste
vens (Pa.), that all able-bodied male persons of
African descent, between the ages of twenty and
forty -five, whether citizens or not, resident in the
United States, shall be enrolled according to the
provisions of the act to which this bill is a supple
ment, and form a part of the national forces, and
when a slave is drafted and mustered into the ser
vice, his master shall receive a certificate thereof
for three hundred 4 dollars, and the drafted man
shall be free; provided the slaves of loyal men
only shall be paid for.
Mr. Davis l(Md,) made a suggestion that the
three hundred dollar feature in the above be omit
ted, to which Mr. Stevens assented^
Mr. Davis also offered an amendment to the
above amendment, as follow: The Secretary of
*War shall appoint a commission in each of the
Slave Stated represented in Congress, charged to
award a jnst compensation, not exceeding the sum
©f three hundred dollars, to each loyal owner of
any slave who may volunteer into the service of
the United States, payable out of the commutation
money upon the master freeing the slave.
Mr. Davis said heinoved this amendment, not
because he believed that compensation was due to
the owner of the slave, but because in Maryland
• the President and Secretary of War, in the execu
tion of the law of 1562, are organizing persons of
African descent to suppress the rebellion, and have
seen fit to appoint commissioners for the purpose
of estimating the value and awarding reasonable
■compensation for slaves who may volunteer. He
believed that the Government ought to take slaves
for military purposes, because they owe such ser
vice to the Government.
Mr. Anderson (Ky.) thought the amendment
•did not go far enough. In hie district the people
were differently situated from those in any other.
A large majority of the young men, following the
pernicious counsels of traitors, had joined the
srebel army, and this was the reason why hi*
district had not filled its quota. When the next
draft shall take place, that district will owe seven
thousand men. Now unless the slaves of the
rebels in that district shall be taken, resort wUI
have to be had to the poor young men, the loyal
population, while those who have induced enlist
ments in fiie rebel service will be allowed to enjoy
their property in peace. He was in favor of put
ting the slaves of all rebels, and of their sympa
thizers, in the army; but was opposed to thus
appropriating the slaves of Union men.
The question having been taken, the amendment
of Mr. Davis, (Md.) was agreed to. Messrs.
Davis, Thomas, and Webster, (Md.) voting in
the affirmative,and Mr. Davis of that State, Jn the
negative.
Mr. Webster (Md.) said he had no trouble about
taking slaves for military service. The Govern
ment took them both as persons and property. ‘
Slaves were so considered in the Constitution, and
had been regarded in that light from the time of
adoption of the Constitution to the present day. It
slaves are taken as property, compensation must
be made. The black man having once bgen &
soldier should be free. He would give compensa
tion to the master and freedom to the slave. Once
he thought white men were sufficient to put down
rebellion, but now duty to our country required
that we should, make use of all the means in our
power to suppress the attempts to destroy our
Mr. Kelley (Pa.) remarked, we did not give the
.Northern father compensation for his son. We did
not pive the wife compensation for her husband.
*We did not give the orphan-children compensation
for having withdrawn from them their support.
When the draft took the husband and father with
out compensation, he could not see that the rela
tion between the slaveholder and the slave was
anore sacred than that of father to son, wife to
husband, or child to parent. Slaves [are persons;
they are never named in the Oonstititution as pro
perty. Every man owed military service to the
•country. He was ready to appropriate money to
pay for the slaves of loyal owners and whose
•masters shall consent to their volunteering in the
service.
Mr. Harris (Maryland) contended that slave
owners are entitled to compensation for their
slaves, but to his astonishment he found that his
colleagues, Messrs. Davis and Cresswell, respect
ing slaveholders, are willing to depreciate the
nghts and property of slaveholders, and to.turn
.out these dependent upon them for support to
starve, ife loosed for more justice from the gen-.
tlemen from Pennsylvania, Messrs. Stevens
Kelley, than from his two colleagues who had ad-
Crested the House. He (Harris) denied the right,
to enlist or enroll a slave. .If the Government
chose to take a slave at all, they could do so only
as property, for which they would be bound to
make compensation. He was opposed to employ
ing negro troops because* it would bring degra
dation on the country. We, claiming to number
twenty million* of people, are fighting five mil
lions ef white men, and now it was demanded the
flag of your country should be entrusted t# the
hands ot slaves. This would be a degradation.
. Mr. Kasson (Iowa) in reply to that gentleman
denied that his side of the house proposed any in
justice by the provisions of this bill. As to the
gentlemen’s remark about entrusting the country* *
flag to the hands of the black man,; he (Kasgon)
called attention to the fact that in the Revolution
ary War, that was considered no degradation, and
the pension -Tolls show the names of black men by
the aide of the names of white men. The statutes
of the State of Virginia up to this time show that
slaves who fought in the battles of the Revolution
should be emancipated for honorable .conduct.
The State of Rhode Island authorized the- enlist
ment of black men or slaves. It was no new thing,
"but was called for by the necessities .of the coun
try* and it was the last thing to which represen
iahvcstroß: slave States ought to object,
Mr. Baldwin (Maes.) moved to strike from the
amendment the words ‘nhc owner ol’ any slave,"* ’
and to substitute the words, ‘/neisons to whom
the colored volunteer oyres service. * * He did not
think the interest now in controversy should have
superior advantages. He knew they had been ac
customed to give slavery partiality oyer other
.snbjcctsv and had offered his amendment, wishing
to make the pending proposition conform as near
•as possible to the langnage of the Federal Oonsti
intion.
Mr. Mallory (Ky.) appealed to tho gentleman on
the other side to know why they manifested, so
much solicitude for the States of Kentucky, Mary
land and Delaware. If, he said, we allow yon to
put free negroes iii the army, and to which he had i
no objection, what business is it of yours to say
we shall enlist oiir'slaves I Why not leave Ken- i
tucky to say who shall fill its quota 1 If youliave
in view the abolition of slavery, ortho demorali?
zation of the institution, then you„will adopt tlic j
proposition of the gentleman from Pennsylvania. |
He invoked the -.committee, if they had not deter
mined to pnrsue areckless conrse, not to adopt it.
Mr. Baldwin’s amendment was agreed to.
Mr. Broomall (Pa.) offered a proviso that this
section shall not apply to any Oongressiocal dis
trict if the Representative of the same shall ex
pressly ask that’ the slaves of his district be exempt
from the draft, lettihe it fall more heavily on white
men. He merely offered the amendment for the
benefit of those gentlemen who are opposed to the
original proposition. He never found the man in
his district who objected to the darkestmegro going
as a substitute for him. ' ' _
Mr. Stevens was opposed .-to Mr. Broomall’s
amendment. It was not for members of Congress
to say what bind of soldiers shall be enlisted.
Mr. Broomall’s amendment was disagreed to.
Mr. W ebster (Md.) offered the folio wing amend
ment:
“And the bounty cf one hundred dollars now
payable by law for each drafted man, shall be paid
to the person to whom such drafted person owes
service or labor at the time. of his muster into the
service of the United States on freeingthe person.”
Mr. Kelley, replying to Mr. Mallory, said the
President’s proclamation was extinguishing sla
very in Maryland, Missouri, Delaware, Louisiana
and Arkansas, and, the work must go on. It was
a decree in the order of Providence. Our inten
tion is to work with Providence. If we work
against Providence we shall he overwhelmed; and
it i£ our intention, by employing colored troops, to
bring the war to a termination to be followed by a
lasting peace. We look to the extinction of human
slavery within the broad limits of our country.
Mr. Webster’s amendment was agreed to—aye 3
63, nays 37—Messrs. Webster, Davis, Cresswell
and Thomas (Md.) voting in the affirmative, and
Mr. Harris or thaiwstate in the negative.
Mr. Clay (Ky.) said that in 1860 the property of
that State was valued at '5516,000,000, and the
slaves at $107,000,000. He deprecatedvthe legisla
tion which would take from the Statejone-flfth of
her property. Why was this? Was it because
she had not furnished her quota of troops ? Cer
tainly not. He did not deny the proposition that
private property could he taken for public uses,
but this must he followed by due compensation.
He was opposed to establishing recruiting stations
in Kentucky. It might create a civil war aad
distract the Union men, instead of increasing the
Union sentiment now spreading oyer the entire
population. It would create such a feeling that
we never would see the end of the matter.
Mr. Schofield (Pa.) said if abolition was mad
ness at one time, it might be good sense at another.
Sometimes it was wise to pursue a path oh whose
unknown ahff _ thrfeatening dangers it was con
sidered to enter. The slaveholders them
selves being judges there were two conditions for
the existence of slavery on this continent; one was
ignorance on the part of the slave, and the other
was silence and non-discussion by the whites.
These two safeguards of slavery were on the
statute books of the South. These safeguards,
however, had been wonderfully broken down by
the necessities of the war around us. We have
cordons of schools tor the instruction of black
men, wbo r were' also told that they were of right
tree; and/it was a duty we owe to God to help
thfifluw maintain their freedom. One hundred
"Thousand slaves are already in the army, and an
equal number will join them in the spring. The
army was the school to teach them the feelings and
power of freedom.
Mr. Fernando Wood desired to call attention to
the fact that whilst they were discussing measures
clearly and palpably in violation of the Constitu
tion of the United t*tates, and oppressive an* de
structive, the Confederate Congress proposed on
this very day to discuss; measures of peace, re
union and reconciliation. \He read an extract from
the Richmond Examiner of the Bth inst., in which
it was said that extraordinary resolutions had
been introduced in the House of Representatives
by Mr. Wright (Ga.) and that the House went into
secret session before taking any action upon them.
These resolutions proposed that “ the Confederate
States should invite the United States, through
their governmental Washington, to meet them by
representatives, equal to their Representatives and
Senators in their representative Congress, v to con
sider:.
“First, Whether they cannot agree npon the
recognition of the Confederate States of America.
“Second, In the event of such recognition,
whether they cannot agree upon the formation of a
new government, founded upon the equality and
sovereignty of the States. lint if this cannot be
done to consider: '
“Third, whether they cannot agree upon
treaties offensive, defensive and commercial.
“In the event*of the passage of tfiese resolutions
the President shall be requested to communicate
the same to the government at Washington in such
a manner as he shall deem to be most in accord
ance with the usnages of nations; and in the event
of their acceptance? he shall issue his proclama
tion of election of delegates under such regulations
as lie may deem expedient. ’ *
Mr. Fernando Woed continued by saying this is
a government of white men, made by white men
for the purpose of preserving lavr and order.
Gentlemen here were proposing by all the amend
ments pending, to do that which under the Consti
tution they have no right to do.
Mr Creswell (Md.) would not attempt to reply
to the gentleman who had just taken his seat. He
admitted that he had not the means the gentleman j
(Mr. Wood) possessed of knowing what was going j
; on at Richmond. In reply to his colleague, Mr.
Harris, he, Mr. Creswell, said ho was willing to
make an assignment of slavery to the gentleman
from Pennsylvania, “Mr. Stevens. [Laughter.]
As his colleague had spoken of injustice to the
slaveholder, he said this very proposition before
the committee awarded to every slaveholder $3OO.
Maryland awards $lOO to every slaveholder whose
clave volunteers'. This would make up the sum
of $4OO.
He then referred to the laws of Maryland to show
that in that State the valuation of slaves for the
purpose of taxation is yrovided for, and that the
value acci rding to age and sex is from $163 to $4OO,
and not over.
Mr. Cox (Ohio) was opposed to the bill because
it would whollv fail of execution, and would not
fill the-army. while he was disposed to vote all
the men and means to put down tlie rebellion, he
hed always been ready* in all stages of this dread
ful conflict, to give an opportunity Jbr the voice
of conciliation and peace to be heard. The propo
sition before the Confederacy was for peace on the
basis of the old Union, for the resolutions in effect,
say so. He proposed that a commission should be
raised.
Let Commissioners be sent to Richmond. Send,
if you please, the distinguished gentleman from -
New York. Mr. Fernando Wood. [Laughter.)
Send him, andifhe did not comeback within sixty
days with a negotiation for peace based on the old
Union; with the equality and sovereignty of the
States, he (Mr. Cox), speaking for Mr. wood and
Company, would pledge them as earnest support
ers of the prosecution of'the war. Will not the
gentlemen on the other side receive Commissioners
to treat for peace and Union on the old basis of
State equality and lovereignty? Would -hey con
tinue to vote pains and penalties, would they con
tinue the war for subjugation and not unite to
restore the States of the Republic? Your object is
not to restore the Union, it is to blot out the domes
tic institutions with which ypu never had any bu
siness under the Constitution
Mr. &mithjKy.) showea that the lose in slave
property in Kentucky was owing to the occasional
invasions, and in the course of bis remarks said he
was the last man to compromise with rebels until
they laid down their arms and yielded to their gov
ernment unconditionally.
Mr. Harding (Ky.) desired an amendment to be
made that the pending proposition shall not apply
to the State of ITentucky. He maintained that it
was a violation of the Constitution to interfere with
slavery, and to take slaves without consultingtheir
owners was roohery.
Mr. Higbee (Cal.) said that the Constitution re
cognized no such institution as slavery, and there
fore they should not, by legislation, make any
concession to it.
Mr. King (Mo.) said no State had made as many
sacrifices for the Union as Missouri. She had not
been treated as well as Kentucky, for recruiting
stations had been opened in his State, and recruit
- -iitg officers had gone into negroes’ houses telling
them they were obliged to go into the ‘service, and
that if they did not go voluntarily they would he
drafted and receive three hundred dollars as boun
ty. Was it not injustice to take able-bodied slaves,
and leave tho halt, blind and young to be cared for
by others ?
Mr. Davis (Md. )said his colleague, Mr. Harris,
had maintained that slaves were recognized as
property by the Constitution.. He, Mr. :Davis,
categorically denied that assumption. If slaves
are property, they are not so by any law of the
United States.'but by the laws of the respective
States. The Constitution treats them. as persons.
Slavery was robbery, and time had sanctioned this
fact. He said we owe no justice to the slave
holders of Maryland. They are my enemies, and
lam not their friend. They opened this war* and
who will triumph is not hard to see. I have con
tributed to the best of my ability to get some com
pensation for the owners of slaves, not because I
think they are entitled to it, but because something
•is due-to the roughness qf the transaction. I will
do no more.
The amendment of Mr. Stevens, as given in the
first part ot this report,.as amended by the propo
sition of Messrs. Webster and Davis* of Maryland;
was agreed to.
Various other propositions were debated and
disposed of, and at half-past five o’ clock the Com
mittee rose and reported the amendments to the
House.
Mr. Schenck (Ohio) offered a substitute for the
bill, which includes the amendments agreed to by
the Committee. It was ordered to be printed-to
gether with the bill as amended by the Committee.
The Bouse then adjourned.
