A caucus of Republican or Union members of
the House of Representatives was held to- night at
the Capitol, Representative Morrill (Yt.) in the
Chair. The object of the meeting was a harmo
nization el views on the important pending ques
tions, and with a view of effecting an ear«y ad
journment of Congress: including measures neces
sary for the support oi the Government, and the
bill reported by Mr. Davis (Md.)from the Select
Committee on the Rebellious States, to guarantee
to certain States whose Governments have been
usurped or overthrown, a Republican form of Go
vernment. Various .gentlemen suggested different
hills which they thought ought to receive prompt
attention, but no votes were taken as to measures
which should have precedence. It was generally
agreed that those of the most public importance
should be first considered.
Tuckerman and Forbes, with whom the contract
was made for deporting freedmer- to the Isle of
Avache, and the majority of whom have juSs been
brought back by the United States Government,
claim S2(),000, but this amount has not been paid.
It is withheld on the gionnd that the contract has
not been fulfilled. The funds set apart by Con
gress for colonization purposes is 45600,000, of
which $35.000 have been expended.
The scheme having proved a failure, Congress
will undoubtedly repeal the law making that ap
propriation. The sum drawn by Senator Pome
roy has all been strictly accounted for, and the
particulars of his transactions filed in the proper
Department. This gentleman volunteered to fit
out the expedition to Chiriqui, which was de
feated by the protest of the New Granadian Gov
ernment, the President having accepted ofhis ser
vices.
The Secretary of the Interior, in a recent official
communication says:
“Bat little disposition,so far as this Department
is informed, has yet been manifested by the freed
men of the United Spates to leave the land of their
nativity. I doubt if it be any just cause of regret.
Time and experience, which have already taught
ns much wisdom, and produced so many conse
quent changes, will, in the end, also solve this
question for us.
The Secretary of War, in a communication in
response to the Senate resolution, says that no
orders concerning elections were ever issued from
Ids office. He inclosed a letter from Assistant Ad
jutant-General Townsend reporting that he had
-given no orders to the Provost Marshals in Ken
tucky, Delaware, Maryland or Missouri, relative
to the elections in those States, and, also, one of
the same tenor from Provost Marshal. Fry, ex
cepting the despatch of October 31st to Assistant
Provost Marshal-General Jeffries, at Baltimore,
namely: “DirectyonrProvost Marshals to give
their aid in carrying out General Schenck 7 s orders
for preserving the purity of elections at the polls
in Maryland.* *
Brig.-General Joshua T. Owen passed through
this city to day for his home in Philadelphia,hav
ing been temporarily relieved of his command of a
