XUVW'XH COHGBESS—TIRST SESSIOIf. CLOSE OB’ YESTEEDAY' S PROCEEDINGS. •Senate—Mr. Sumner (Mass.) introduced a bill to exclude disloyal persons from the public lands of the United States. Referred to the Oommittea on Public Lands. The bill not only forbids the exercise of the pre ompUpinriglit, but-excludes them from-the benefit of judicial rights m reclaiming mining lands, or re ceiving damages to such property. Mr. Hale reported the bill to amend an act eati tied, An act to established and equalize the grade of line officers in the United States navy, with an amendment intended to remedy the of valuable officers by the Retiring Board, and' es sentially the same that failed to become a law last •session.: - Mr. Wilson introdnced a bill which provides that in future, enlistments in the regular army shall he for three instead of five years; and that soldiers in •the regular army who enlisted prior to July 22d, 1861, shall have the privilege of re-enlisting until the Ist day of May, with existing bounties and that officers absent from duty with leave for a pe xiod ilbt exceeding ten days shall receive full pay •And allowance for such period: that enlisted men - employed as laborers at the Military Academy, or detailed as clerks in military offices in Washington •or at Geographical Department Headquarters, may . receive the extra pay allowed by law prior to March 3d, 1863; that Chaplains absent from duty by reason of wounds or disease shall receive full pay, without rations, nnd for other causes *>alf pay, with rations; that Chaplains shall be placed on the same footing in respect to pensions as First Lieutenants; that there snail be allowed to the bat talion of regular Engineers, one Adjutant, one Quartermaster and one Commissary, to be selected from Lieutenants on duty with said battalion; Also, one Sergeant-Major and one Quartermaster's Sergeant. - " ;0n motion of Mr. Lane (Ind.), it was resolved /that the Committee on Military Affairs be in structed to inquire into the expediency of so -amending the Articles of War as to prohibit to all military commanders below the President of the United. States the power of relieving fromdaty any general officer, except when placed under ar rest upon chsrges, or when wounded, or on sur geon’s certificate of disability, or uoon limited leave of absence, or when captured by‘the enemy, leaving to the general-in-chief and the different department, and corps commanders to change the •command of their respective general officers. Onmotionof Mr. Lane (Kansas), the President was requested to famish to the Senate any pro tests of Governors of States in reference to the re moval of General Schofield from the Department ■of Missouri. . r Mr. Morrill introduced a bill to regulate pro ceedings in cases between landlords and teiiduts in the District of Columbia. Referred to the Ju . Oiciary Committee. , Mr. Collamer called up the bill to remove all disqualifications on account of color in carrying the mails, with an amendmentproviding that in the Courts of the United States there shall be no ex clusion of witnesses on account of color. Mr. Lane (Ind.) said he should vote against this bill. In the Courts of many of the States, among which was bis own, colored persons were ex cluded from the State Courts.. If this law was passed there would be a conflict of authority .be tween the Courts of the United States and the State Courts, and besides there were plenty of white persons capable of doing the work or carrying the snails. He believed the radical prejudices exhi bited for several days here aeainst the public sen timent of the country would do harm instead of good. Emancipation was going on well enough now, and lie would give no vote winch would have a tendency to do more harm than good. He thought that blacks and whites should be kept separate, and he was unwilling to go into legislation for the benefit of the blacks as against white men. Mr. Lane (Kansas) was proud to say that he re presented a State where the people had intelli gence and-justice enough to listen to the truth, without regard to color. Mr. Saulsbury thought the remark of the gen tleman from Indiana would have a good effect throughout the country. Where was the practical good to he subserved by this bill ? Has the public service been injured in the past by the exclusion of colored persons from carrying the mails) Our legislature has already gone lar enough in favor of the negro without absorbing every day of the ses sion in their behalf. When passion had subsided, the passage of this bill wonld be regretted by many •of those who favored it now. Mr. Sumner alluded to the origin of the legisla tion now proposed-to be stricken from the statue - books, and quoted from a letter of Gideon Granger written in ISM, wherein the passage of a law making the disqualification was suggested in con •eequence of alleged danger from the colored mail carriers in the South. Up to that time there had been no legislation of this sort. Mr. Saulsbury approved the. spirit of Mr. • Granger’s letter, as indicating the friendly feeling of the old days between the North and South. - - Mr. Powell opposed the amendment allowing colored persons to testify as witnesses in-courts of the United States. If we have one rule in the State courts and another in the United Slates courts, it would inevitably create confusion. “Though be.knew that nothing he could say would prevent this fanatical legislation, he would raise his voice against it. Mr. Hendricks could not see the propriety of » connecting wiih a bill regulating the mail service 3 question of the competency ol witnesses before the courts of the United States. The matter should go.to the 'Committee on the Judiciary. Ifthe negro* s intelligence is so much as to introduce him as a witness not only against white men, but in fact to impeach the white man’s integrity, why not place him in the jury box and make him the peer of the white man. - .. ... From the course of the debate here for a lew days past, the fact has been established that the negro was the peer of the whiteman, and was entitled to'political and social equality with the white man. Now we go one step further, and say that he shall be allowed to impeach the white man in our •courts. Let us have fairly and squarely the issue •before the country. We might say here that the negro is the equal of the white man, but you can notmake him so by any legislation of yours. Onr race has gone upwards for a thousand years, and the colored race downward when depending upon its own ability to raise itself. Under such a •state of the case, he was loth to believe in negro equality. Mr. Harlan inquired of the gentleman if equality was created by the fact of negroes being allowed to ride with the Senator in a rail road carl Was that the Senator’s criterian of equality) r Mr. Hendricks replied that he did not conside thatthat was a criterion, but when the Senate cont ferred t-uch high privileges on these people as i had within a short time past, he did consider it a criterion, and that the ’ facts brought before us by this legislation showed the purpose of the major ity to place the negro on an equality with the white Tace. Mr. Harlan inquired if the fabt of the-carrying a musket in the same branch of service would place them on social equality. If they were engaged in carrying packages, or be found laboring in any capacity for th f * Government, did that tend to 'establish social equality, or did the fact of their receiving the same pay, or allowing them to tes tify in the Courts establish their social equality? We should be governed by the physical amount of labor performed in regard to. pay, and he sup posed a black man could tell the truth as well as a white man. But because colored men were wit nesses it did not follow that they should be jurors. Mr. Saulsbury referred to the difference iu know ledge of the colored Tace among southern and northern men, and went on to picture the evils of such legislation as this,' and declaring that he regarded the authors of it as the worst enemies of the race. Mr. Powell offered an amendment limiting the provision for negro testimony to cases of robbery or violation of the mails. Mr. Conness said that in voting for the bill he wished to extend the rights of colored people to testify in ail cases In all the courts of the United States, and instanced that in the States of New YoTk and California this policy had worked well. Hr. i Johnson. thought the point olthe hill was in coininLttee’s amendment, as he did not suppose •ine Postmaster-General would employ many col or?? m 2P in 'CWying the mails. _ Sumner mentioned that it was desired to a very respectable colored man in Boston faw laU carrier ’ ul c t> u ld not he done under the nof as easf fin rt'« U mißht be interred that it was ton as"it ” Ep< ' elable white man in Bos ton as it was to find a resnectaViio r*ni nroA mon He then called att, ntion io P the e, n coSStnSSs Which might result if slaves were allowed to tesd! fy. He said he thought, negroes as competent to testify*s other persons of no higher menial and ■moral qualifications. He hoped the Simdment ■would be adopted, limiting the provisions to free colored persons. Furiber action subiert was postponed. • ■ J The SeLate agreed to the report of the Commit tee on Conference on the disagreeing votes on the bill reveising*'the grade of lieutenant. General. The Senate, after an extra session of two a half hours, then adjourned. HOUSE Ol‘ KEPKBSEXTATIVBB, The House passed a resolution of thanks to Com modore Ringgold and his officers and men for their daring and skill in rescuing the United States shipwreck during 1861. . SrZ* ® lair (Mo.),from the Committee on Military Affairs, reported a bill that any portion of the resi dents of Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolir na, Georgia, Flonda, Alabama, Texas or Arkansas, who may volun teer in the military service of the United States for ♦i IIT v e or <lurin g the war, shall be ■entitled to the benefits and privileges of existing laws.- and--’mustered into tee regiments of any btates which they may elect, or in case of colored troops, shall he assigned as now by law, and any State or snb-diyision of States procuring such en listments shall receive credit as in other cases pro vided that snch enlistments in any state nnde’r this act shad continue only until such Stat 9 shall be subject to a call for troops. Mr. Cox (Ohio) stated he was credibly informed that recruiting officers from other Slates were enlisting Ohio troops in this neighborhood. He was informed by a colleague that. Ohio regime ats in the southwest were enlisted as Tennessee troops. There was no doubt that the richer States, like New York, are offering and paying more bounties than the border States could give. He read a letter from an officer* showing that recruit ii-g officers from Troy, New York, had induced the nth, 12th, 17th, and other regular regiments, to re-enlist, and give credit to Rensselaer county, N. Y. The bounty is eight hundred and fifty-two dollars, and local bounty paid down, three hun dred dollars. In the regulars were several hundred from Ohio and the greater part from the West. This is a swindle bn the West. • We are, he said, entitled to th? credit of these men. Some warning ought to be given against such conduct. Mr. Fwclr (Ohio) confirmed the statement as to the two regiments from his district being enlisted as Tennessee troops, these same troops having their lamilies supported by the localities to which they belong. ' Mr. Blair (Mo.) said the evils of which the gen tleman (Mr. Cox) complained had nothing to do with this bill. If the Secretary of War discredits the law, there was a way to make him respect it. He knew that thousands of men were recruiting in Missouri and subsequently credited in Illinois, from which State they came. Mr Wadsworth(Ky.) expressed his dissent from this bill. They ought not to give States the pri tilege or right to in other Statesfin stead of employing men in their own States. The States which have no money thus to spend must furnish their qnota from their own people. He piotested against the -whole policy of arming negroes and bringing them into the contest. They were commanded by white officers, and denied all claim to political and social recognition, and yet were requirecLto fight. ‘ln fact it was-exchanging one state ol slavery for one far more odious. He repeated that while the negroes were .called’ upon to defend the national integrity, they were denied all the rights, and claims of citizenship. If he called upon the negroes to help him to fight, they were fit to vote for him; hence he repudiated the whole policy, and called upon his State (Kentucky) o send her freemen into the field and not her slaves. Mr. Blair (Miss.) did not Tegard this asawar be ween some States and other States. It was a war between the government and men in rebellion against it He believed they could as well employ men of the South in Massachusetts regiments as elsewhere. He did not concur in the remarks of *be gentleman from Kentucky. He knew from what he had seen that there are thousands of men n the South anxious and willing to enter the ervice of the government, but as yet no provision hss been made by which their families can be ared lor. Thousand, of loyal men can he obtained here if provision be made for tne support of their ■amilies. We should, therefore, avail ourselves of bis opportunity. It was more their battle that that of Massachusetts, and they had more interest in upholding the government than the North, for they bad suffered to a great extent the evils and horrors of war. The view -which the gentleman from Kentucky had sought to inculcate was the Stale rights doctrine run mad; Mr. James C. Allen, (111.) suggested whether it would not be better to let the Union men in the Soutn remain where they were, to form a nucleus for the Union sentiment, instead of attaching them to the regiments from various States. Mr. Blair (Mo. )replied that that was being done now in North Carolina and Alabama, but the measure pending would be more efficacious. He was in favor of having their families provided for and giving the largest bounty. Mr. Garfield (Ohio) speaking from practical knowledge, said that the only white regiments rtjised in the South were raised by himself in the summer of 1862. While his command was lying in the forests near Decatur, he learned that the Sand mountain caves, and all parts of th* moun tains, were filled with tftiion men, sternly hold ing out against conscription and resisting every attempt to force them into the rebel service. He sent out Col. Streight (who lie hoped has made bis escape from Libby prison), and that officer in three days raised four hundred men. The women from the mountains obtained his consent that these men might be enlisted, and one woman brought in thirtv-flve men, and he (Mr. Garfield) would say he had never seen Union men like those Union men of the mountains, swarming from tne sand hills of Mississippi to Western Virginia. No pro position before the Honse had so much solid sense m it as this, and evidenced such far-rearing and wise statesmanship. Mr, Ccx (Ohio) offered the following amend ment, which was agreed to, namely: Provided, further, that no enlistments shall be made ot any soldier, either in or out of his own State, except those enumerated herein, unless full credit is given to the State to which the enlisted soldier belongs;. The bill, as thus amended, was then passed— yeas 81, nays M. Mr. Finck (Ohio) submitted a resolution, which was Bgreed to, callingonibe President, n not in compatible with the pnblic interests, to reportwhat number of veteran volunteers have re-entered the service, how many irom the several States, and from what particular States non-residents have been recruited. Mr. Dawes (Mass.) called up the Virginia elec tor case, and the House proceeded to the consid eration of the resolution that Lewis McK*»nzieis not entitled to a seat as representative from the seventh Congressional district. Mr. Dawes spoke .in support of the resolution adopting the conclusions of the Committee of Elec ions, who could* not satisfy themselves. There has been such a freedom of election in that district as to warrant the conclusion that Mr. McKenzie is not the choice of the legal voters of the whole dis trict. Mr. McKenzie was privileged to speak in his own behalf, when the House voted and agreed to the resolution declaring him not entitled to a seat Mr. Washburn© (111.), ltora the Joint Committee of Conference, made a report on the disagreements to the Lieutenant-General bill. He said the report was una.nimous. Mr. Cox.(Ohio).—Does it leave out the recom mendation that General Grant shall be appointed Lieutenant-General 1 Mr. Washburne (111.)—It does. Mr. Cox—Then I move to lay the report on the table. Mr. Washburne then explained how the bill would read if the House adopted the report. Should the motion of the gentleman from Ohio prevail, it would carry the bill to the table, in which event it would be lost. Mr. Brooks (N. Y.) asked if tbe bill did anything more than authorize the appointment of a Lieuten ant-General. Mr. Washburne (111.) replied that under the di rection of the President the Lieutenant General might te authorized to command the armies in the field. i' Mr James C. Allen (Ind.) inquired whether the bill conferred any power which did not al ready exist ? Mr. Washburne (111.) replied,iftbegrade should be revived, General Grant would be placed at tbe head of the armies of the United States, should the President appoint him Lieutenant General. The House Committee agreed to the report because ev erything was obtained disagreed to by the original bill, andthev yielded the more willingly to the Senate amendment to strike out the recommenda tion of Gen. Grant, from the information and knowledge that should the bill pass he will receive tbe appointment without any delay. Mr. Cox (O.) objected to tbe gentleman stating here what occurred in the committee, and bringing the authority of tbe President here to control the action of the House. j? Mr. Wasbbume denied having made such a state,f-- ment; the simple question was, whether the report** of the committee shall be agreed to, and Grant made the commander of onr armies and close the rebellion, or whether the motion of the gentleman from Ohio shall be carried and the report laid upon the table, i Mr. Cox (O.) remarked that the gentleman was mistaken. : The bill did not appoint Gen Grant. Hr. Washburie, resuming, he was sur prised that any man, in the light of the intelligence we have to-day, should make the moil on the gen tleman did, while Gen. Grant is driving Long street out of Hast T'nnessee, the advance upon Dalton and the splendid march of Sherman right imo the heart of Mississippi, which was all a part ot the grand programme ol Gen. Grant, and after the House and Senate almost unanimously had passed this hill. Mr. Cox charged .that the gentleman (Mr. Wash burne) had deserted Gen. Grant. Mr. Oox’s motion to lay the report on the table was disagreed to. The report was then adopted. Teas 73, nays 47, as follows: Yeas— Messrs. Jas. C.
