CONG=OS-713ST SESSION.
CLOSE OP.I,E4IRS.DAY'S PROCEEDINGS.
SERATE.-Mr. Howard introduced a bill to
amend the statutes in force in the District of
Columbia, repealing the saving clause in favor
of Tensions, the administration of justice in
testamentary affairs, &c.
Mr. Doolittle presented a memorial of the
Ligislature of Wisconsin, asking that a tax be
placed only upon the profits of money invested
in the manufacture of agricultural implements,
instead of three per cent. on all sales. It re
presents that these manufactures are five times
the value of the capital invested, or equal to
fifteen per cent. on the capital, and that they
have greatly benefited the West, and without
them the development of agricultural resources
would be retarded. Referred to the Committee
on Finance.
Mr. Sherman called up the bill prohibiting
speculative transactions in gold, &c., as pub
lished in yesterday's proceedings. He said the
object of the bill was to prevent gambling in
gold. The committee thought that this, at this
time, bad an injurious effect, and that the sale
of gold by a party who had no gold to sell was
an offence. This offence was being daily com
mitted by parties when they have not a cent to
sell. He presented the following letter from
the Secretary of the- Treasury on the subject.
In a letter to Mr. f'essenden, Chairman of the
Finance Committee, under date of Treasury
DePartment, April 12, 1864, the Secretary of
the Treasury says:
Sir, notwithstanding the diminished amount
of United States notes in circulation, and our
gradual withdrawal from use as currency of in
terest-bearing United States notes, made a
legal tender for their face, the price of gold
continues to advance. This effect can only be
attributed to one of two causes, and is probably
due in part to each. First, to the increase of
notes of local banks, and secondly, to the efforts
of speculators. I have already submitted
through you to the consideration of the Com
mittee on Finance, a bill intended as a remedy
for the first evil. I now beg leave to submit to
its consideration a bill intended as a remedy for
the second. The first bill, if it becomes a law,
will have, I doubt not, the most salutary con
sequences. The effects of the second will pro
bably be more immediate, though not perhaps
of such permanent importance. I ask for both
a candid consideration, and if approved the
favorable action of Congress. It must not be
thought, however, that I regard either or both
of these measures adequate remedies for finan
cial disorderi. Nothing- short of taxation to
one-half of the amount of our current expendi
tures, and a reduction of these expenditures to
the lowest point compatible with efficiency, will
insure financial success to the Government,and
without military success all measures will fail.
Very respectfully yours,
(Signed) S. P. CHASE.
Mr. 'Sherman said that the Committee on
Finance were not certain that the evils sought
to be remedied by this bill would be so. He
was certain, however, that the bill might do
good, and could do no harm. The true remedy
for our'evils, as all knew, was - the success of
our armies.
Mr. Fessenden advocated the bill; and said it
might tend to cure an evil which existed, be
cause of the desire of some persons to make
money at any expense to the country ; and
again, as he was sorry to say, because there
were many amongst us. who cultivated a hos
tility to our currency because they sympathized
with our enemies. In a great commercial city
like New York, it was impossible to repress
this entirely, but he thought the bill would ac
complish good.
Mr. Cowan (Pa.) opposed the bill as of use
less and doubtitill legislation. He - did net be
lieve our currency had so depreciated as to re
quire such a means to bolster it up. He denied
that these speculations had the least effect on
the price of gold. The price of gold depended
upon its intrintic material value, and if there was
an article in the world which hall a legal right to
be called king it was gold.. He quoted at length
from Thier's History of the French Revolution,
giving a history of the assignats issued at that
time, and drew a parallel between that era and
this.
He moved to strike out the clause requiring
the annual delivery of United States notes or
national currency in all gold transactions. He
said this bill would have no better effect than
the Gold bill passed recently, when gold went
up five per cent. the day after its passage. He
opposed the bill as useless and impracticable.
His amendment was rejected. ,

Mr. Chandler (Mich.) supported the bill. It
was well known that there were in many of our
large cities persons of disloyal opinions who
used all kinds of methods to break down the
confidence in the Government and its currency.
In New York city, to-dav Jeff. Davis could
get a larger vote than a loyal man.' These gold
gamblers were nearly all sympathizers with the
rebellion. He believed the people had con
fidence in our securities, as for every dollar the
Government issued there was a mortgage on
the solid wealth of the country. One reason
of the great demand for gold was the extrava
gance of the people. There was what was
called the "gold ring" in New York, who
were sympathizers with the rebels, and this
bill would have an effect on it and similar com
binations. When our armies should march to
victory, the speculators would be the ones
to suffer.
Mr. Johnson (Md.) made a legal argument
to show that it was not competent for Congress
to undertake to regulate this matter,. as
it was a matter solely belonging to
the States. If, as alleged, it was a crime
to gamble in gold, it was to be punished
by the laws of the States. He denied our au
thority to regulate State Banks under the Con
stitution. Gold had become an article of trade
and contract, and the States should regulate it
as such. This bill further proposes to regulate
foreign exchange. If we have power in Con
gress to do this, why may we not extend it to
bends, stocks, promissory notes; &c.,and thus
regulate the entire business of th States?
This bill would not be a success permanently,
because these speculations, instead of having
their places in the street, would continue under
-one roof and exert this same influences they
now do. He wanted additional taxation, and
a vigorous and successful prosecution of the
war. With this the people would allow the
debt to be trebled.
A message was received from the House an
nouncing their non-concurrence in the report
of the Committee of tionference on the dis-•
agreeing votes on the bill creating a Territorial
Government for Montano, and stating that
they had appointed a new Committee with
*instructions asking the appointment of a similar
one by the Senate.
Mr. Fefisenden and others, while expressing
' a willingness to recede, condemned the manner
in which the House had made the request.
Mr. Fessenden said he was tired of seeing
the Senate getting continually on its knees to
the House.
On motion of Mr. Collamer, the Senate re
fused to accept the propositiotruf the tiouse„
coming in the form it did.
Mr. Sherman said the depreciation of our
currency was no greater than that of France
and England, when great financiers like W in .
Pitt, presided over the Financial Bureau of
England: Similar methods were proposed in
those days to prentit the depreciation of the
enrrency. He cited instances during the period
I , ller England waged wrlr o T air,,t
lie said the gold bill 'Jabbed the other day had
THE DAILY - llVEviNti BubLivr!N PintioyElips
accomplished all desired, and but for it he bad
no doubt gold would now be over two hundred.
Our bonds were now worth one hundred and
fourteen, and if gold was higher it was because
of the enormous bounties we had paid to the
veterans. He took no discouraging view of
our condition ; this was unwise, and he would
- alinost say unpatriotic.
Mr. 'Sumner said the whole question has
been discussed exhaustingly two years ago,and
he would make his words brief. He then went
on to give a brief history of the French assig-.
nats and said they were not parallel to our cur
rency, because no provision was made for their
redemption. Gold coin in all communities
might be considered as money or as merchan
dise. if it is money the Government must
protect it. The Government might, to correct
abuses, withdraw its coin altogether. Con
gress has power as a last resort to do what the
public safety might require. On this grturnd
the habeas corpus was suspended and men are
drafted, and these powers can be exercised in
extraordinary emergencies.
Mr. Cowan replied to Messrs. Sumner and
Sherman, and said if we prohibited gambling
in gold to-day there would be gambling in cur
rency to-morrow. He opposed this bill, as
it showed an unmanly panic, and looked like an
effort to force the securities of the Government
on the people against all precedent. We must
pass the revenue bill, and then, with our new
General and a rejuvenated army, conquer the
enemy, put this rebellion down and pay ottr
debts.
A motion of Mr. Collamer to strike out the
second section forbidding the purchase of
gold at other than the ordinary place of busi
ness of the seller or purchaser, was rejeetei..
Mr. CoHamer moved to strike out the words
foreign exchange.
At 6.15 P. M. the Senate adjogrned.
lIOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
Mr. Beaman (Mich.), from the Conference
Committee on the disagreeing amendment to
the bill providing a territorial government for
Montano, made a report recommending a con
currence in the Senate amendment striking out
the qualification of being "white" for voters,
and tubstituting "every male citizen of the
United States and' thoSe who have declared
their intention to become such."
Mr. Holman (Ind.) moved to lay the report
on the table, which was disagreed to—yeas 60,
nays 67.
The House disagreed to the reportyeas 53,
nays 83.
Mr. Webster (Md.) moved the following in
structions: "And that the Committee agree to
no report which authorizes to vote any other
than free white male citizens, and those who
have deciared - iheir intention-to become such."
The question was taken on Mr. Webster's
instructions,and.agreed to—yeas 75, nays 67.
Mr. Beaman's motion for another committee
of conference was adopted, with the instruc
tions as above.
The joint resolution to dispose of the unem
ployed generals was postponed for ten days.
Mr. Alley (Mass.), from the Committee on
Post Office and Post Roads, reported a bill
authorizing the establishment of an ocean mail
steamship service between the United States
and Brazil.
Mr. Alley said that the Committee reported
the bill because petitioned for by large num
bers of merchants, capitalista and others froth
every section of the Union. None have asked
for subsidies for a particular lino, burgenerally
for the inauguration of a general policy, which
would place us more upon an equal footing with
other commercial nations. He said the policy
of Great Britain has been, ever since 1840, to
encourage ocean steam communication with
distant and remote points, by granting pecu
niary aid in the shape of subsidies, Sz.c:, While
the action of this Government was the reverse
of that of England, a policy which he charac
terized as “penny wiseand pound foolish."
He showed that under the subsidy sys m
the commerce and trade of Great Britain w th
ti i
our neighbors right at our own doors bad ''n
creased to unexampled dimensions; while o rs,
on the contrary, had decreased in all cas s to
very moderate proportions, and in man in
stances to positive insignificance. He tated
that not a single American steamer now rried
our flag to any European port, and all onrcorr
respondence with the nations of Central and
South America had to be carried by foreig s
steamers via England or France.
He said it was a mortifying fact that an
American Minister, representing our Govern
ment at any of the orth American or Central
American States, was obliged to cross the ocean
twice in order to reach his post or duty, under
the protection of a foreign flag. 131 we wish to
maintain commercial importance, much less
maintain supremacy, we must change our policy
and adopt that of Great Britain, which has
swelled her trade and commerce with all those
nations with whom she has established steam
communication to gigantic proportions.
England has gradually and constantly in
creased her subsidy system for more than
twenty years, until now she has established
ocean communication with every nook and
corner of the 'globe, and compelled almost
every nation of the earth to pour into her ca
pacious lap such of their products as would.
add to her comfort or promote her wealth.
She now has nine lines to which she grants
subsidies, amounting - in all to over four mil
lions of dollars per annum. The postages re
ceived reduce her annual loss to about two and
a half millions.
The exports of the United States to Brazil
are about seven-eighths agricultural, and one
eighth manufacturing products. The Brazilian
Government are anxious to establish more in
timate postal and commercial communication
and relations with us. Last year a proposition
was made, and came very near being carried,
to grant a subsidy to a North American Com
pany of $lOO,OOO.- He said that not only were
the material interests of the country greatly
promoted by this policy, but great political
considerations of transcendant importance were
involved in the question on intimate postal and
commercial communication with our neighbors
upon this continent. The North American
Governments are ready to welcome us with
Open arms. They dread- the encroaching and
grasping •policy of the governments of the old
world, and they are looking to the Government
of the United States as a - barrier and shield to
the aggressions and usurpations of those Go
vernments.
Mr. PrUyn (N. Y.) expressed the hope that
this bill would receive the unanimous support
of the House, as it would show that we are
well disposed to cultivate the good feeling of
Brazil toward us, and further increase the
benefits of commercial communication between
the two countries.
Mr. Stevens (Pa.) thought that they had
abandoned the system of subsidies. We tried
it with the Collinsline and abandonedir, leaving
everything open to competition, as it ought to
be. If it were even profitable, it seemed to
him they ought not again to resort to it at this
time, when gold is at a premium ranging from
- fifty to one hundred per cent., and when the
public expenditures were three millions of dol
lars a day.
Mr. Alley said that the gentleman misappre
hended the bill. It proposed to give for the
service not exceeding $150,000 per annum,
provided Brazil would pay an equal amount.
There was no subsidy, no particular line is
selected, but the service is open to fair com
petition.'
Mr. Kasson remarked the bill did not merely
provide for eultivating postal and commercial
communication with Brazil, but with interme
diate points, and he briefly showed the advin
tages of the bill. •
After further proceedings,Mr.Stevens moved
the bill be laid upon the table. This was disa
greed to by 30 against 57.
ThP herl xraQ then pft.,r a P I. , ltivlrNa ,, the
POz , tutaatei-Lienerttl to tunto with the Yost
Office Department of Brazil in egtablishing,
direct mail communication between the two`
countries by means of a monthly line of first
class sea going steamers, not less than two thou
sand tons each, of sufficient number to perform
twelve round trips per annum, between the
United States, at a port north of the Potomac
River, and Rio Janeiro, touching at St. Thomas,
in the West Indies, at" Bahia. and Pernambuco,
provided that the expense to the United States
shall not exceed $200,000 per annum. The
Postmaster-General is authorized to advertise
for proposals for such service for sixty days in
one or more newspapers in Washington, Balti
more, Philadelphia, New York and Boston,and
such contracttto go into effect on or before the
Ist of September, 1865.
Mr. Al!ey, from the Committee on Post
Offices and Post Roads, reported a bill -com
pelling all railroad corporations to carry the
mails for such compensation as may be pro
vided by Jaw. The bill was passed. •
Mr. Alley millet up the bill to establish a
postal money order system, which was passed.
No order is to be issued for less than one dol
lar, nor more than thirty dollars.
Mr. Rollins (N. H.), from the Committee on
Public Expenditures, reported a resolution au
thorizingt.he Speaker to issue his warrant to
the Sergeant.at.Arms for the arrest of John H.
Donahue, of New York, who has refused to
appear and testify in relation to the affairs of
the New York Custom House. The resolution
was passed.
The House passed a resolution for the relief
of Postmasters who have been robbed of
stamps, money, &c., by Confederate forces or
bands of guerillas.

Supplement to Ashburton Coal Company.
Incorporating Philadelphia Hall Association.
Adjourned until Monday.
HousE.—The House met at 10 A. M.
Mr. Myers (Bedford) rose to a personal ex
planation. The statement had been made yes
terday by the gentleman from Philadelphia
(Mr. Watson) that the destruction by fire of
the property of an enrolling . officer in Bedford
county, was owing to the teachings of a paper
of which he (Mr. Myers) was proprietor. The
charge was but the repetition of an electioneer
ing scheme, and was a gross insult and a faLse
hood. This fire occurred in a township which
gave Mr. Lincoln a majority of one hundred
and eleven iri 1860, and which in the spring
election of 1864 gave the Democrats eighty
five majority. Those who asserted that the fire
was the work of some person either allied to
the Democracy or in sympathy with the South,
proved themselves to be falsifiers by not being
able to name, produce or convict the incendi
ary. The course of the Bedford Gazette, the
paper alluded to, had always been to suppress
any insurrectionary spirit, and it has asserted
that, as the conscription law was one of the
laws of the land, it should be quietly submitted
to 1021 such.
Mr. Watson inquired whether it was true
that the paper had said of the enrolling officers
that they would rather live a peaceful life than
die a fearful death.
Mr. Myers said that when a gentleman asked
him a question he would reply.
Mr. Watson said that the person whose pro
perty had been destroyed, and who was an oth
er of the Government, had received a warning
that vengeance would be visited upon him and
two others. This was why the barn was burned
and this was the legitimate result of incendiary
teachings.
The General Appropriation bill was passed.
Bills in Place.—Mr. Etnier, an act establish
ing standard weight of sumac in Pennsylvania
(fixing it at two thousand pounds per ton).
Passed. Also, an act incorporating the Union
Manufacturing Company.

Company.

Courts of the Commonwealth. Passed.
Stearn Road on Delaware avenue.—The act
sets forth that it is desirable to increase the
facitities between the .seaboard cities and the
National Capitol, and promote the commercial
and manufacturing interests of Philadelphia.
Be it enacted, §-c., That Price J. Patton,
Thos. Sinekson, Benj. P.Thompson and George
W. Reed, and successors,be incorporated, &c.,
