CLOSE OE YES TEED AY 8 PROCEEDINGS,
'The morning hour baviDg expired, the West
\Point Academy Appropriation bill came up h* or
der, the pending amendment being ibatot air,
Anthony, providing tor a competiu ve examimi
‘tion tinder the direction of the Secieiury oi War.
-Mr. Anthony’s amendment was- adduced bv a
Thte of 20 to 15. : “
Mr. Hale offered an amendment providing that
no cadet shall receive any part oi tiie iippropna
tion unless appointed, in accordance with the laws
Of Congress, i
Mr. Doolittle (Wis.) offered an amendment pro-
Jading that until the suppression of; the rebellion'
■the President shall be authorized to appoint ir ni
unrepresented districts such deserving voang
-soldiers in the armies of the United States as he
•saay select. ;
Mr. Davis (Ky.) would wish to have the amend -
►Dient modified so as to make their appointment in
•dependent of political bias, else young- citizen* of
African, descent might be selected.
. Messrs. Doolittle and dark deiendbd the Adana
. ostration from any political oias in tae selection of
military officers.
Mr. Davis charged that an officer of a New
-Hampshire Regiment had beeu di&mi.'Stu from th«
fierviee-for voting the Democratic ticket at an ejec
tion in New Hampshire.
M l * S sa * d ke had not heard of this.
;Mr. Davis said it had beeu published* broadcast
"1 “id-newspapers, and never denied.
Mr. Sumner (Mass.) eaid the lirst General ap
pointed from Massachusetts was a Breckinridge
Democrat—General Butler. *
Mr. Davis would wish that God would deliver
Us from such Generals as Butler, for he was -the
-meanest and most mercenary General ever seut to
-cnrse the earth. He could be bought and sola
~«very day in the week. [Laughter. ]
Mr. ‘Wilson (Mass.) considered this a strauge
He did not think that our generals re
ceived their apnoinlments because of their support
-of the Administration, but as a matter oi public
policy. At the beginning of tbe contest the Admi
nistration desired to bring to their supp tc men of
all parties, and In the first year of the war it w.ts
much-easier for a Democrat than one who voted for
• Mr. Lincoln. At the last session, out of 6.655
nominations which came before the Military Com
mittee, composed of four Republicans and three
Democrats, there was never a divided vote, and
the same was the case at this session in the exami -
1 ation of 2,000 cases'. The Administration, iu its
military appointments, sought to do justice, with
out regard to opinion.
Mr. Conness (Cal.) cited the State of California,
’Whose six generals had been appointed, all of
whom were Democrats; among them the present
•General-in-Chief and General Hooker.
Mr. Howe (Wis.)jsaid that Democrats were the
'last men to raise the cry of proscription against
the present Administration, for we have had no
Administration since the days of Washington
Which such a charge could not be as honestly
urged as this against thj£ Administration. A more
■tolerant Administration we had never seen since
the days of Washington. Mr. Howe reierred to
the fact of the Secretary of War having been a
Democrat.
Mr. SaulsbuTy (Del.) saidhe would wish that
the Senator from Wisconsin would relieve the
Democratic party of the disgrace of ever having
such a member as Edwin M. Stanton.
Mr. Howe would not wish to hurt the Senator’s
feelings by saying that tbe Secretary was now a
Democrat of the proper type.
Mr. Saulsbury—What you say will not hurt
me.
- Mr. Howe said if the Senator was hurt the best
cure for him would be to come into the fold with
the bulk of the Democrats. Referring to Mr. Davis,
Mr. Howe said he did not believe he was disloyal,
hut would'be glad if he stood on the ground he
occupied at the last session.
Mr. Davis said there was once an Administra
tion, under 4 thai great man John Q,uincy Adams,
during which there were only four removals, and
those for neglect of duty. He conceded that in the
beginning of this war there was a considerable
degree of liberality exercised in the appointments,
and especially to the Demosratic party.
The President’s inaugural and his Hist message
give us the grounds upon he was to conduct his
branch of the government, and the two Houses oi
Congress passed concurrent resolutions, and upon
this mutual basis the war was to be conducted.
All the Northern Democrats now deciare is that
the President and his party have abandoned the
principles laid down by them, and have taken the
opposite course. He considered himself a better
Union man than the Senator from Wisconsin, Hr.
Howe. He believed that since the organization of
the radical policy of the Administration nine
tenths of the appointments have been made of men
opposed to the policy of carrying on the war set
forth in the Crittenden resolutions. He believed
those who favored such a policy the only true
Unionmen. . ' ■
He did not believe this Government would be
.preserved by the overthrow of the cardinal prin
ciples of tne Constitution. No man who enter
tained that the grand principles of the Constitution
cohld be negatived was a good Union man, and
yet such men had the audacity to stand here and
denounce him as disloyal.
The amendments of Messrs. Doolittle and Hale
Were adopted, and the bill passed.
Mt.‘ Fessenden called up the Consular and
Diplomatic Appropriation Bill. After a debate on
an amendment of Mr. Sumner to create a Minister
Plenipotentisry at the Court of Belgium, without
•action, the Senate adjourned.
BOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
B&. Broomall (Pa.) oflered a resolution, which
was adopted, instructing the Committee on Print
ing to inquire into the truth of the statement that
the Congressional Globe is published at a loss to
its proprietor, and -what means are necessary to be
taken to continue the uublication of that yaluable
"work.
On motion of Mr. Pendleton (Ohio) a resolution
■was adopted instructing the Committee on the
Judieiary to inquire -whether further legislation
is necessary to enable the ciyil courts to review
the proceedings of military commissions and
courts martial, in order to secure to persons the
benefits of the amendment to the Constitution
which provides for trial by jury or indictment.
Mr. Cox (Ohio) introduced a bill, which was
referred to the Judiciary Committee, to prevent
officers of the" army and navy, and other persons
engaged in the military and naval service of the
United States, from interfering rn elections in the
States.
Mr. Eice (Maine) introduced a resolution declar
ing slavery to be the progenitor of social and poli
tical evil, and tending to the demoralization of free
labor, and therefore slavery should be entirely ex
tinguished. At his ovrn instance it lies over.
Mr. Kelley (Pa.) oflered a resolution, which was
referred to the Committee on Printing, providing
for printing ten thousand copies of General
Meade’s report of the battle of Gettysburg, to
gether with the accompanying reports, for the use
of the House.
Mr. Schenck (Ohio) offered a resolution, which
was adopted, instructing the Committee on Rules
to inquire into the propriety of so amending the
rules as to require members to vote when the veas
the*House Ve caUed ’ U 1^ e “ specially excused by
On motion of Mr. Miller <N. Y.), it was resolved
that the Committee on Military Affairs be instru u
ed to inquire into the exnediency and nece=sitv'of
increasing the cavalry force of our army by imme
fiiately raising fifty thousand volunteers for that
Arm of the service, and that the committed have
leave to report by bill or otherwise.
The House passed the bill for the payment of
nearly one hundred and ninety-three thousand
■dollars to the Ghippewas, Otto was and Petto wata
mies, residing in Michigan.
Mr. Washbnme (111.) offered the following :
S Whereas, Congress has, by the passage of the late
eyenue bill, approved the prmoiple of taxing
stocks of liquors on hand, by taxing all foreign
liquors on hand, therefore,
Resolved, That the Committee of "Ways and
Means, in the next Revenue bill, be instructed to
incorporate therein a provision to tax all stocks of
domestic liquors on hand for sale, at the rate of 60
-cents a-gallon, where it has not been paid, and 40
cents where SO cents a gallon has been paid.
Mr. Stevens objected to the introduction of the
resolution.

On motion of Mr. Stevens, the House took up
-the gold bill as returned from the Senate, with
amendments, in which he moved a concurrence
Mr. Kernan (N. Y.) said that although it author
ized the Secretary of the Treasury to sell the sur
plus gold* it was merel v a proposition to enable
the Government to use its coin to shave its own
■paper at an enormous.discount. He congratulated
the country and House that the proposition had not
been recommended by the President or any head of
Department, nor did it come from the Committee
of Ways and Means, for they had heretofore re
ported the, bill ought not to pass.
The bill-was sustained by an outside pressure or
•influence which had but little care for the welfare
•of.the country and tbo Government. The law of
1862 pledged the coin which it was now proposed
to sell for depreciated paper to the payment of the

interest on the. public debt, and one per . cent,
toward the extinction of the principal. This was
a wise provision, for itgave ns strength and nbi *
ity togo inLo the market to borrow. Ife repeated
it was unwise &Dd unprecedented to authorize the
Government to Ehave its own paper, and alluded
to ihe gold flutter in Wall street, r-acting in tbis
connection from a private letter written by a firm
stupjiniter of the Bepublican party, to show thf
< vii effects which would result from tlrismeuu r e
end elating that the bill as, it originally passed the
House, authorizing the Secretary to anticipate tbe
puyn eat ol the public interest, would be suScicat
mid the best and only remedy, and tbis opinion
v-a; expressed after the writer had consul f ed with
at le and intelligent Fmenj not in gold speculating

iliuv will continue to be speculating in gold. If
he eellsout, gold will go down, and speculators
»>uy it. end the same speculators will then put up
price. . To authorize the power now propos-d

IVlr Piuyn (N. Y.) said a few days ago the
lit use. by a decided vote, provided merely tor
Miitjcipatiug the nayment of-interest on the public
oebt. The Senate, it appeared, added an amend
ment authorizing the Secretary of the Treasury to
sell tbe surplus gold. The question was whether
anything hftd occurred since the House took its
vote to now induce it to change its ground ] The
idea that tbe action of the House caused rise in
go d a few'days ago was entirely unfounded. If
ti ey were then wrong they should now change
their course, but not otherwise. By the act of
the payment of the interest on the public debt
and one per centum toward the sinking fund
wonld take the surplus gold out of the Treasury.
Ihe only resu ! t of the measure, as it came from
Jie Senate, mustbe mischief. His colleague, Mr.
Stebbins, several days ago did not succeed in con
vincing him that no matter what might be the
extent of public debt, there was a sufficiency of
r* sources to meet it. There was a limit to the
credit of a government as well as tp that of an
iLdividual. The limit mast be reached; it must
stop somewhere. He repeated, we ought not to go
imo the market to shave our own paper. He
objected to placing the power proposed in the
hands of any one man, and expressed the hope
that the House would stand by the solitary‘prin
ciple it heretofore adopted, nanfbly, enabling the
t ecretary of tbe Treasury to anticipate the interest
tn ihe public debt.
Mr. Cox (Ohio) said when the proposition autho- !
nz’ng the Secretary of the Treasury to sell gold ;
was first brought beiore the House, he and his
lriends objected to its consideration. It was then
charged by the Tribune that they were in the inter
net of stockjobbers, if so, the gentleman from
Massachusetts (Mr. Boulwell) was in the same
company. He was in favor of the proposition to
authorize, the Secretary to anticipate the payment
ol ihe interest on the public debt, if that was ne
cessary to reduce the amount of gold now in the
treasury, and because that would be legal. But
he was opposed to authorizing him to sell the gold.
The price of gold was not affected by the legisla
tion hej e, and it might go np or down for a time
without power on their part to control it. They
mightas well legislate m gravitation or hydrosta
tics as to attempt to overrule the laws of trade.
1 hey might afreet, temporarily, the market, but
gold, alter'all, would seek its proper level. The
guards to prevent speculation had been brushed
away by the Senate. He opposed conferring the
auih rity contained in the Senate amendment
He opposed it as a man jealous lof power. It
would give to the Secretary of the Treasury abso
lute power to control.the interests of thirty-mil
lions of people. He hoped the House would ad
here to its oiiginal position, and not listen to the
clamors of stock-jobbers and biokers as they are
re-echoed from the Senate, but send up a straight
forward measure, as commended by honest- men
of the land.
Ifcr. Alley (Mass.) would vote for tbe amend
ment of tne Senate, believing the interests of me
government and country would be promoted by its
adoption. Although it might not do much, yet it
would be the instrment of doing something to check
gold speculation. By giving the Secretary of the
Treasury the power to sell, gold might be reduced
ten or fifteen per cent. No one exercised power more
wisely or more prudently than the Secretary of
the Treasury. If he had not confidence in the hon
esty of that officer he would have some doubt as to
the propriety of the measure, but havintconfl
denceinhim, and believing that in his hanofe the
authority would be productive of great good and
no evil, he was willing to confer it. In the re
marks delivered by the gentleman from New York
(Mr. Fernando Wood), who was detained home by
sickness, it was said we are on the eve of repudia
tion. He was afraid this wish of the gentleman
•was lather to the thought. There was only one
measure we will have to resort to, namely, exces
sive taxation. If we tax the people as we should,
we shall secure the confidence of the public in the
ultimate payment of our securities.
Mr. Huiburd (N. Y.) said he held in his hand a
letter from a gentleman from that city, m whish
be stated that if this measure, as amended by the
Senate, shall pass, it wonld to & very large extent
raise the price of gold. He was in favor of the bill
as it passed the House, and appealed to gentlemen
to pause before they conferred upon the Secretary
ol the Tjeasury thf£ authority to sell the gold as
now proposed. ' - 6
Mr. Boutwell (Mass ) said thus far the Secre
tary of the Treasury has not publicly committed
himself to the passage of this measure. He was
not opposed to giving the Secretary or the Treasury
authority to sell gold because he .was not willing
to trust him, but he was opposed to granting this
power because they have no power to grant it. He
believed they had no moral right to grant it: and
even if he were satisfied they had the right, he
should think it unwise in the highest.degree to au
thorize its exercise. They should consider the
question with reference to the prolongation of the
war, for in time of- peace they could act with a
better understanding and with more certainty.
He had learned that when a merchant had money,
not required for immediate wants, instead of going
into market and investing it in stock, he would an
ticipate the payment ot his obligations, and thus
establish his credit, and so it should be with go
vernment: and in the bill proposed by him, and
which had passed theHouse,he applied this sound
principle. He did not fear to intrust any man
with such power as the Senate amendment pro
pose d unless on the gronnds of necessity, and there
was no such necessity at the present time.
Mr. Alley (Mass.) inquired of his colleague
whether he did not believe the mere fact of the
passage of the bill would' not have the effect ol
checking gold speculations, even if the power pro
posed to be conferred on the Secretary should not
be exercised.
Mr. Boutwell replied the chief element which
entered into speculation was uncertainty, and
this measure of the Senate introduced a new ele
ment of uncertainty. How could gentlemen dis
regard the pledge of the public faith setting apart
the coin to the payment of interest and the gradual
liquidation of the principal of the debt by con
verting the gold to general uses. The Secretary
would have to confide to another the sale of this
coin, and he did not know whether such agent
would be trustworthy or not.
Mr. Stevens asked whether the Secretary has
not now to trust agents with the custody of the
gold. • '
Mr. Boutwell replied it was different as to sell
ing geld, for when it was to be sold that fact
would become known, and thus speculators
would profit by it in advance. He further indi
cated his opposition to the Senate amendment.
Mr. Hooper (Mass.) thought his colleague (Mr.
clU ! r ely mistsiken when he said they

which it was reserved. The bill as originally in
