XXXVIIITE CONGRESS.—FIRST BSS3ION,
•CLOBB OF YESTERDAY’ 8 PROCEEDINGS,
SENATE. ' f
The bill equalizing the pay of soldiers in the
United States, army. being under consideration
• Mr. Davis (Ky.) resumed his remarks o»» the
p amendment offered by him yesterday. He said,
though the writ of habeas corpus was suspended,
•it did not suspehd the trial which every eitv / . f, r> hits
a right to under the Constitution and tHo laws.'
The President assumedtheeuormous responsibility
to prohibit the return of the States iauh.r their con
stitutions, and required that certain conditions
• which were abhorrent to the majority of tin* people
- ® * these Slates shall be complied \\ ith before the
fetate spall qe allowed to return to the Union. The
•re-election of the present President, or the election
♦of a person, of - similar radical views, would con
mrm these enormous usurpations and. abuses ul
:power; In the course of bis'speech, Mr. Davis
referred to a remark attributed to Mr. Seward by
Lord Lyons, on newspaper authority, in which
*he Secretary of State is reported as havin'- sain:
' ‘*My Lord, I can ring this bell, and a citizen or
r»ew York'‘will be arrested; and this, and a citizen
*Ol Indiana will he placed in duress; ’»
Mr. Davis proceeded to comment on the eouse
•quences of such a stale of affairs.
. Mr. Anthony (R. I.) .interrupting, wished to
know whether tie Senator from Kentucky was
cognizant of the truth of the paragraph, and "would
inquire whether it were not more proper to kno w
the facts before parading them in the Somite, with
his comments uponfthem.
... Mr. Davis declined to be interrupted, as ho
knew the Senate was weary with his talk, and to
. acknowledge the God’s truth, lie was tired of it
himself. [Great laughter.]
Mr. Davis referred to a meeting held at one
fime in Massachusetts, at which resolutions were
'passed inciting the negroes of the South to revolt
against their masters. The Senator from Massa
chusetts took, a prominent part in that meeting,
-rm/vret dia not raiße a word of objection against
■such an Omf, a S eous proposition.
•Mr; Wilson said i»C wa s at tbe meeting as a
-'Spectator
Mr. Davis proceeded at gleac length in deaild
'Ciation of the course of Massachusetts since flie
cormation of the Federal government, and made
some satirical allusions to her Senators on the
• Senate floor at this time. He said the military
Senator, Mr. Wilson, had attempted to baby aud
domineer over flies© who were his peers on tais
floor. . ■
MT. Wilson, called Mr. Davis to order.
The Chair sustained the question of order.
Mr. Doolittie thought the whole tenor of the re
marks oithe Senator from Kentucky were calcu
lated to create personal strife. ,He should either
call the Senatcr from Kentucky to order leave the
Senate, as he wouldiiot sitin his seat and listen.to
these’personal attacks. They were not only o”ut
of order, bnt beneath the dignity of the Senate.
Theiiite of the Senate was too precious to be
wasted in personal vituperation.
. Mr. Johnson agreed with the Senator from Wis
consin that much of ."what had been said by the
Senator from Kentucky was productive of nothing
but mischief.
Mr: Wilson hoped the Senator from Kentucky
would bo allowed to conclude his remarks/ what
•ever they might be.
Mr. Sumner had never made any harsh allusion
to the Senator from Kt ntucky, and*he was willing
that he should proceed in his attacks against him
until doomsday.;
Mr. Davis then concluded his remarks.
Mr. Sumner offered amendments to the Consti
tution of the United States, as a substitute for
those reported by Mr. Trumbull, from the Judi
ciary Committee, a few days ago, and asked that
they might be made the especial order for Monday
next."
ijlf. Sumner’s amendments areas follows:
1. There shall be nc-ilher slavery nor involuntary
.servitude any where in the United States, or with
in the jurisdiction thereof, otherwise than in pun
ishment for crime, and that Congress may make
all laws necessary and proper to enforce its pro
hibition.
2. To strike out the; third paragraph of the se
cond section of the fourth article of the Constitu
tion, except the words “excluding Indian* not
‘taxed,” so that the whole clause should read,
“Representatives and dire ;t taxes shall be ap-*
; portioned among the several States of the Union
to the.r number, excluding Indians not
'taxed, * *
3. To strike out from the third paragraph, se
-cond section, fourth article of the Constitution,
the words * *noperson, held to service or labor in
: one State under; the Jawß. thereof and escaping
into another, shall, in consequence of any laws
or regulations therein, T>© discharged from such
service or labor, bnt shall be delivered up on the
claim of tbe party to whom such service or labor
amay be. due. ’ *
On motion'of Mr. Hale, the Senate went into
Executive session and afterwards adjourned.
Mr. Farnsworth (111.) introdmeed the following
joint resolution:
Be it resolved, <£c., That the thanks of Congress
are hereby given to those noble and brave men
who, baring already so gallantly endured the
hardships and perils of war lor more than two
years in support of their country aud flag,present
the sublime spectacle of agamroltmtarily enroll
'ing ihemselves in the army of "the Union lor an
• other three years’ campaign, or so long as the war
-shall continue.
Second, That the Secretary of War may cans#
this resolution to bo read to each of the veteran
regiments ‘which have re-enliated,or shall re-enlist
Hn both the volunteer and regular forces of the
United Slates.
The resolution was unanimously passed without
debate.
-Mr. Dawes (Mass.), from the Committee on
' Elections, reported resolutions declaring that John
S. S.eeper is not entitled to a seat as Kepresenta
- tiye from the Third Congressional District of Mas
sachusetts, and that Alexander H. Bice is entitled
to the seat.
The resolutions were ordered to be printed, and
the Bouse resumed the consideration of the hill te
establish a bureau foi Jreedmen’s affairs.
Mr. Cox (Ohio), after discussing its constitution
ality and humanity, stated that he could not sup
port so novel, sweeping and reYolntionary a
scheme as establishing an eleemosynary system for
' blacks by the Federal Government, and making
• the Government a plantation speculator and over
seer. He held that the highest humanity was ad
herence to the Constitution. We are invoked to
look the fact in the face, that millions more of
slaves .will he freed who are unlit for freedom and
need care. This is too true. We cannot, by shut
ting one eye, ignore the fact. He accepted events,
and he advised the humanity of Hew England,
fattening upon Western toil, to do its part in saving
- the slaves so improvidently freed. If slavery be
* doomed, then the conflict will be befcweehr blsck
. and white, and no longer between slavery .and
freedom. Ho system like this can srve the slave.
’No now system of miscegenation, which is but an
other name lor amalgamation. and which is being
urged by Abolitionists, and to establish which as a
system, no doubt,-we shall soon have a bureau,
will save thfr slave. f
The Northern Deraecraey are not responsible for
his extirpation. While we never were pro
jslavery, we were for--non-intervention. Slavery
inay be crushed out as the war gees on, hut so will
the slave. If slavery had. to die, good men would
have prepared the slave to'be saved, and that it
Should have been by the enforced action of the
States, not by the rough usages or war and the
- usurpation of power. -
For this condition of the slave the dominant
party is responsible. In striking at slavery they
have struck- down local liberty, of which the
Northern Democracy are the champions. They
have marred the perfection and periled the en
' durance df our political fabrie. For. this they
must answer next fall., No more cry of pro
slavery Democracy. The issue will be the old or
der, vt ith Democracy to administer, or continued
revolution with despotism.
The grand old Union, with as much: of local
sovereignty and constitutional andpersonallree.
dom as may be saved from the abrasion of war and
the aggrandizement, of power, or a new abolition
-military unity of territory, with a trinity of debt,
tyranny and fanaticism.
M.. Wnshburne said hs had always listened to
>the gentleman’s speech with attention, for he had
heard it several times before They should not,
probably, during the next session of Congress hear
■the gentleman again rehearse his speech,for judg
ing by-the recent-elections in Ohio, and particu-.
larly in the. gentleman*-s district, he would say to
him, in the language of Watts, and in as solemn a
spirit: “Ye dying man, come view the ground
-where you must shortly lie. [Langhter. 1
He here desired the B onse to hear what their
friend from Ohio had written in his hook called
-“The Bnckeye Abroad” ae to what he saw at
Rome, and while -he was rambling among the
gilded corridors of -Bt. Peter’s. Writln g about the
music which ravished the ear, and the incense
which titillated the nose, the author says, soon
•there arose In that chamber—what a shocking thing
-it would he here—a plain. African, delivered a ser
mon in Latin in the most graceful manner. The
priest referred to was an Abyssinian. What a
commentary, Hr. Washburne said, this was on
■°?r African prejudices. [Laughter.] The head
•of the great Oathollo Ohnrch, surrounded by the
.-ripest scholars of the.age from-all parts of the
world, listening, not to eur friend from Ohio, but
to the eloquence of the despised negro,and thereby,
in the language oi the author, ‘ -illustrating to the
world the common bond of brotherhood that binds
the human race.’ ’ [Laughter.]

- Mr. Farnsworth thonght thanks to that officer
ought to be provided lor In a separate resolution
=Mr. Garfleia aald nbat thanks -or Oongresi had
become a cheap thing. The time was when thank*
were bestowed only for great.deeds, and then in
the most solemn manner; but thanks are now give.»
not only to chiefs but to subordinates,'-and -nobody
inquired whether iii*“tban»i.ag;6no man somebody
idee was. not robbed. ‘ Ho.hadi been so willing to
thank any man that he had hot seen fit to inter
pose any objection. Now, uo when it came
eo_ close to his own history, he could not permit
such a resolution to go through without protest.
He. appealed to tbe House not to do injustice by
singling out a subordinate in battle and give to him
the thanks of Congress, without saying a word
stout the principal, notonly m.the battle of Obick
amtiuga, but in a series of important campaigns.'
Some said that Congress had already
voted thank's to General Rosecrans, bnt that was
lust year, for bis conduct at Murfreesboro*. He
was ready to meet "with a denial/feny man who
might say Rosecrans was notentttled to thanks for
bis conduct at Chickamanga. It has been the cus
tom of the press to treat the battle as a defeat. If
that was a defeat we might welcome all such dis
asters. If our army continues to suffer such de
feats,. the rebel army'would soon be destroyed,and
the groat campaigns limited. The object of the
movement at Chickamauga was to drive thy enemy
beyond the Tennessee river, and lay the base for
future operations.
Tbe Army oi the Cumberland met and repulsed
the rebels, and gained the key. of the Cumberland
Mountains and hold it. If there had been greater
tuecess against such odds since the war began, he
bad not heard of it. - Our armv on that day, not
more than forty, two thousand," met not less than
seventy-five thousand of the enemy, who threw
the weight of his mighty forces upon us, and in
the aiternoon not more than twenty-five thousand
of our troops met that immense host, and at the
last charge the rebels were driven fromour border.
Tie history of the country would tell us that
Rosecrans won the battles in "Western Virginia at
the. commencement of the war, but another had
carried away the honor. ;
Mr. Garfield rapidly traced the military opera
tions of Rosecrans at Bowling Green, Murfrees
boro* and at other points, and said that at Chatta
. nooga we had numbers superior to tbfe enemy,
' Tjybile nt Chickthe rebels outnumbered us.
He would honor General Tboin&Vbut Thomas
would not desire to be honored at the expense !of
" jio £ ?crans. Thomas’s name deserve! -**
wriiten .\ n letters of gold Before he parted with
Thomas, the Jitter said to.him, in the most solemn
manner, alter the battle of Chickamauga, “By
all means prevent the removal of Rosecrans from.
the command of the army. ft This man, said Mr.
Garfield, you would burden , with thanks, at the
expense of his superior officer.
On motion of Mr. Fenton (N.Y.), the resolution
was referred to the Committee on Military Affairs.
The House then went into Commit‘ee of the
"Whole on the State of the Union on the Navy Ap
propriation bill.
Mr. 'Dawson (Pa.) made a speech in favor of an
amendment paying seamen in gold or its equiva
lent. v.
Mr. Mcßride (Oregon), regarding the war as
one for self-defence, made a strong Union, speech.
The Committee then rose, and at half-past four
the House adjourned:
