XXXVniTH CONGBESS.—FIRST SESSIOIf, OLOSB 07 YEBTEKDAY’ 8 PROCEEDINGS. SENATE. The Senate, on motion of Mr. Ramsey (Minn.), ... to the consideration of tlie bill granting lands to aid in the construction of a railroad from "St Paul, Minnesota, to the head waters of Like Superior. Hr. Howe opposed the bill at considerable •length; Messrs. Ramsey, Wilkinson and Johnson sup ported the bill. Mr, Doolittle replied to the remarks of Mr. John • son, and defended his State from any narrow ; minded policy as against her sister State Miuue ~ : On motion of Mr. Doolittle, the bill granting lands to aid the construction of a railroad from St; Paul to the head of Lake Superior was postponed *mtil Thursday. ' » The Senate went into Executive session at 3.15 P. M., and shortly afterwards adjourned. . • • HOUSE OP REPRESENTATIVES. Mr. Alley, from the Committee on P >st Office® And Post-xoads, reported a bill for carrying the mails between the united States and foreign coun tries. It requires all steamers and sailing vessels to perform the service when so directed, and promptly to deliver the malls, for which they are to receive such reasonable compensation as may 1)6 allowed by law. Mr. Alley explained the re maining provisions, sa) ing the committee thought the above was just and proper, inasmuch as those vessels received the protection of tne United states at a .vast expense. The next seetiou au thorized the Postmaster General to make con tracts for four years for the transportation of mail matter other than letters by the Pacific or Nica ragua rohtei provided the expenditure shall not exceed one hundred and sixty thousand dollars per annum, and if in any case more than one com pany shall be engaged, the Postmaster General shall determine the proportion to be paid to each. At the present time the Department contracts for the carrying of the overland mail at a cost of one million dollars. The newspaper mails, conveyed by the sea, cost one hundred sixty thousand dollars. This is contracted for by the overland mail contractors. The Department though:, it bet. ter the Government should itself contract imme diately for th? service, so that it might have direct control. The fourth section provides that all mailable matter overland shall be subject to pre paid letter postage, but not be held to exclude newspapers—one copy to each regular subscriber, vast amounts of mail matter are, Mr. Alley said now sent overland which, should go by sea The Postmaster General, by this bill, may enter into contract, not exceeding one year, for carrying mails in steamships between the United States and 1 Pacific and Gulf coasts. The bill also legalizes the transportation of mails to and from New Orleans. P&t? 8 an( * Penalties are provided for the violation df the provisions of the bill, which was passed. The House took np the Senate’s amendments to the Deficiency bill. Mr. Brooks (N. Y.) said when this bill was originally reported from the Committee of Wavs and Means, it contained an appropriation of four millions one hundred and eighty thousand dollars When it passed the House the sum had been ini creased to seven and a half millions, but to this the Senate added amendments to the extent of nearly ninety, nine millions, so that the appropriations bad swollen to a hundred and six millions at the commencement of the session. The Secretary of War had not asked a single dollar for deficiencies but now he demanded ninety-nine million dollars’ In the course of four or five years, at this rate of increase, the burdens would .be too heavy for any nation on earth to endure. For the fiscal year ending with June, 1864, including payment of bounties, the expenditures for the War Depart ment would be a thousand millions. * Mr. Brooks contrasted the former war expendi iures under this Government, for the purpose of showing the appalling increase of expenditures His mind failed to fully comprehend the subject, for the figures confounded him. It was beyond the power of arithmetic.to understand the calcula tion and the principles on which it was founded He regarded it as uniust that such an enormous debt should be left for posterity to pay, instead of making provision for its liquidation by taxation In examining the estimates of thirty millions for the Quartermaster’s Department, he said, some of the transportation was for carrying soldiers to New Hampshire, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware and Maryland, to execute the purpose of the party in power, in order to carry the elections. The money, he believed, was not for the legitimate expenditures of the •war—not for the capture and overthrow of the rebel army, and to carry the stars and stripes to •Capitol hill, at Richmond, or to the forts of Mo bile and Charleston—but to subdue theconserva rtive power of those States. This he denounced, •with all his power and vigor. He appealed from the majority of this House to God Almighty, to put His mark of reprobation on such wicked acts. He would not vote one dollar of these items until their •objects were made clear. Mr. Stevens (Pa. j was glad the gentleman had taken this time to get before the country this cam paign document There was no better time for it. As to the appeal from the majority of this House to another tribunal, he (Mr. Stevens) did not know -either party,had standing in that court to try the issue.' The gentleman’s declaration not to vote for transportation very well suited the tactics of the other side, who would have no troops, or if we had /troops, would keep them out of the field. : He (Mr. Stevens) did not expect any help from the other side of the House. He and the gentle The speech fitted just as well at that time as it did now, but he (Mr. Stevens) hoped the Committee would at once proceed to consider the Senate’s amendments, eighty in number. In ex planation of the increase of the appropriations for deficiencies, he said when the bill was first reported, there was no call lor five hundred thousand troops, but when the call was made, new estimates had to be furnished, and which were presented to the Senate and the House. If any of the items were improper, the House could vote them down; but the _very idea that we are to paralyze the arm of the Government and starve our brave soldiers might become the other side of the House, hut would be disgraceful to patriots. The item of thirty thousand dollars for medical attendance of contrabands having been read, gave rise to a debate, during which, Mr. Smith (Ky.) said the South cared nothing for ns, and would •destroy both white and black if necessary to main tain their independence and overthrow our Gov ernment. For himself, speaking as a slaveholder, and whose family, as far as he could trace back, were slaveholders, he would be ever ready to give Aid and comfort to any slave who would escape from his rebel master, and make him a tree man. The Government, it; wanting means to put down the rebellion, was at liberty to pike his horses, megroes, corn, or anything else, and he would no more undertake to restore to slavery those who had fled from their rebel Ssßatecslthan he would ■cut off his right arm. 3 'u. Mr. Mallory (ICy.) did noVmean to be led into a humanitarian discussion; hut white men as well as black are daily comingMnto our lines, and are entitled at least to a proportion of the Govern ment’s charity. He would not consign any class •of people to starvation in world and perdition in the next. He repeated what he had heretofore uttered in debate, nameiy; that the negro is not fit for free men and not able to compete with white men. He was willing; to contribute money out of his own private pocket to assist all those In dis tress. Mr. Smith (Ky.) in replying to Mr. Mallory, said he knew petitions had been sent hither from Mississippi, Louisiana and Arkansas planters, in lav or of the system of free labor; some owning from one to three hundred slaves have agreed to enter upon that system, and to-day are employing their slaves on their plantations at wages, and are thus making more money than they ever did before under the old pian. Theipolicy is just and right, And should be maintained. h Mr. Bliss (Ohio) opposed, and Mr. Farnsworth, ef Illinois, briefly supported the item under con. sideration. Mr. James C. Allen was opposed to voting money for the benefitof every body who may attach himself to a military camp. He said that at one time in f? nessee ODr s oloung m the Legislature for United States Senator, the American party supported the candidate be cause he belonged to that organization irrespective olrhis views on the slavery question. Mr. Blair replied that the contest in the Mis souri Legislature was not a questioner American ism but only a subterfuge of the American party to over hrow Col. B&nton, and his colleague voted instead of i oniphan for Atchison, as the latter better represented his colleague’s pro-slavery views. He appealed to his colleague (Mr. Rollins) to say whetner the statement was true or false. Mr. Hollins (Mo.) replied that he was too modest a man to be drawn into a fight of this char • ucter. He was outside the bar of the House when the contest commenced, and therefore did not fully understand it. Mr. M--veus said he must call the gentlemen to order. Let them speak on the amendment or not at all. Mr. Blair to Mr. Stevens—You take care of your own bantling.; • Mr Stevens—l don’t take care of anybody, nor do I care for anybody, ' {Daughter. A voice— That s a fact.] Mr. Rollins then stated a few facts from recol lections. Whatever credit is attached to emanci pation in Missouri, his colleague on the-left (Mr. was certainly entitled to be called the father oi it in that State, being willing, as far back as lbsu, io break a lance on file subject. He had always understood his colleague on his right (Mr. Blow) to be opposed to his other colleague (Mr. Biair) m 1855. He (Mr. Hollins) had the honor of nutting his colleague (Mr. Blow) in the dark lantern association, [Laughter,] and recollected vtry wi ll that in the Legislature of Missouri his col league preferred Atchison because the latter had stronger pro-slavery views than Doniphan, the candidate of the American party. He (Mr. Joljins) represented a constituency known as whigs, strongly inclined to .pro-slavery, and tbereiore he uniformly voted for Doniphan. Al though his colleague (Blow) was some years ago a Know-nothing, he was now the representative of the Germans of St. Louis [Laughter.] While the one (Blair) was for emancipation, the other (Blow) was all the lime an inveterate pro-slavery man. Mr, Blow said in all his controversies he had never descended to personalities, nor had he done injustice to any gentleman. He would scorn to rob his colleague Mr. Blair, of a single honor, al though his colleague, took every occasion to indulge in peisonal allusions to himself; but he would let these pass as the idle wind. His colleague had himself defended nim against the charges which he had just made. The defence was recorded in file columns of his own organ; where the asEi rtions were pronounced falsehoods. His other colleague (Mr. Rollins), in speaking of the action of the Legislature, had failed to make a point. His colleague could not show that he (Mr. Blow) was ev*»r a pro-slavery man. There was no such issue at the time. Mr. Rollins said, did you not at one time vote for Doniphan ] Mr. Blow replied that he did so vote, with every member of his party. Mr. Rollins—Was not Mr. Doniphan a pro-sla very man] Mr. Blow replied, the gentlemen knew as well as himself the position of the American party, to which' both of them belonged. They knew the American party made no such issue. It was an extraordinary spectacle for his colleague, who claimed to be a free soiler, to vote forty-four times for Doniphan, who, it was now said by him, was -a pro-slavery man. Mr. Bollins explained, that he voted lor Mr. Doniphan in order to carry out the wishes of his constituents. His- colleague, anxious to defeat Mr. Benton, entered into an alliance against him. Mr. Blow said the gentleman was welcome to all he could obtain by an explanation. He voted one wsy, while he thought another way. Mr. Bollins remarked that he would be glad if he couid help his friend to get right. Mr. Blow further defended-his position,alluding to what had been said about him as poor, misera ble tlanders, produced on every available occasion, and said he still adhered to the principles of the American party. Mr. Rollins thought his colleague’s language was not a fair, specimen of chaste English lan guage. He protested that he did not wish to do his colleague injustice, and believed they were both patriotically engaged at this time in all-honorable efforts to suppress the rebellion. He thought they had better end the Missouri fight right here. If they did not it would be renewed. The Committee then rose, and at five o’ clock the House adjourned. ft fit © f| REAL ESTA XE—THOMAS fc SONS’ PRI VATE SALE REGISTER. CHESTNUT ST—'Valuable property, N.
