CLOSE OP YESTERDAY• S PROCEEDINGS
SENATE.—fir. lloward, from the Committee on
rthePaciflo Railroad, reported Mr. Sherman' s bill,
with important amendments. No United States
bonds are authorized, but the several railroad
compel iesmay issue their own bonds in sums of
sue thousand dollars, payable thirty years after
date, bearing six per cent. interest, payable in gold
or silver coin, semi-annually. at the rate 01824,00 U
for each mile completed and equipped to the east
ern base of the Rocky Mountains, and $OO, 000 for
each mile for one hundred and [lily miles 'west of
said base and east , ,vardlY from the western base of
the Sierra Nevada, SIB,OOO for each mile between
the mountain sections, and $14,000 for each mile
west of the base of Sierra Nevada. On these bonds
the Secretary of the Treasury shall endorse the
,payment of interest for nineteen years, and pay a b
solutely the first year's interest as a gratuity. It
authorizes the construction of bridges over the
2Lississippi and Missouri rivers, not less thin
ninety feet above low water mark, nor more than
forty feet above high water.
On motion of Mr. Anthony (R. I.) it was
Resolved, That the Committee on Printing be au
thorized to inquire into the expediency of printing
a limited number of documents for sale.
Mr. Lane called up the House bill to amend the
enrollment act so as to raise the rank, pay and
- emoluments of the Provost Marshal General to
those of a Brigadier-General. After a short debate
It was passed. •
A message was received,from the the House, an
nouncing their adherence to the disagreement ort
the bill establishing a Territorial Government for
aliontana, and asking for a Committee of Confer
ence.
Mr. Sherman (Ohio) explained that however
much he might be disposed to vote that the Senate
recede, he thought it necessary for one reason to
appoint a committee to meet that of the House.
The difficulty with the bill was that in its present
shape persons from Canada could come into the
Territory, without declaring their intention to be
come citizens, and vote. This should be provided
agattist in the bill.
Mr. Doolittle (Wis. ) thought the question for
which the Senate contended was an abstract one.
There was not now, nor would there be, any num
ber of negroes in Montana. and we were legislating
against au emergency which would never occur in
the histories of the Territories.
Mr. Wilkinson(Minn.) moved that the Senate
adhere to its amendment, and agree to the request
for another contermice.
Mr. Bale.-(N. H.) denied that the principle of the
Senate's amendment was a mere abstraction. It
was establishing a precedent of freedom for the
- territory for all time to come. The bill, without
the Senate amendment, would allow the inhabi
tants of the young territory to be educated in the
barbarous ideas of slavery, which had done so
much injury in times past. •
Mr. Trumbull (Ill) thought the tendency of
this amendment was to alienate loyal men and
lielp the rebellion. Mr. Hale was =stalk in
saying that this was not an abstraction. The bill
itself defined the rights of suffrage. and the very
Ant legislature which would meet in the territory
would dispose or the question for itself. A great
deal had been said about negro equality, and the
equality of all men and women too, before the law,
and it had been urged that it mattered not whether
the means by which this was secured were consti
tutional or not. This Government could not be
saved unless we saved it under the Constitution.
We were fighting for liberty regulated by law,
and so du' from strengthening the Government and
weakening the rebellion, you divide the sentiment
-of the people of the North whenever you under
take to pass an unconstitutional act. The position
of the Southern States was based upon thepretence
that the Government, under pretext,, has usurped
-and exercised powers not warranted by the Coe
stitution. He aid not say these charges were just
always, but we should avoid °yen the appearance
of violatingi the Constitution. We wanted no di
'Visions in this country except between patriots and
traitors. He was sorry that the proposition was
'introduced here, thence to be sent out for discus
sion before the people on the stump in the coming
Campaign.
Mr. Eessenden objected to further debate, the
'morning hatir having expired.
The Senate then proceeded to the consideration
.of the House Legislative, Executive and Judiciary
Appropriation. bill. • •
An amendment of Mr. Anthony was adopted,
•providing - for the publication of the laws in locali
ties -contiguous to the rebellious States, that their
'dissemination amongst them may be better se
cured.
After a few unimportant amendments the bill
Was passed.
Mr. Sumner called up the bill to repeal all acts
for the rendition of persons held to service or
labor.
The bill passed to a third reading without de
bate. The yeas and neje were called for on its
passage.
Mr Stunner said he did not intend to say a word
about the bill. It was as plain as the multiphca
tion table, a diary, or the Ten Commandments
augb ter.]
Mr. Hendricks did not think there should be
- sack. an amendment to the Clonstitatioa as this.
it might be as plain as the multiplication table,
but it was doubtful to him whether the high mo
rality of the Ten Commandments would sanction
, its passage. It was decided in 1793, and again in
185 e, to be lawful and expedient. The Fugitive
Slave law has been decided to be constitutional by
every court of the United *fates, and reaffirmed
by the people. Now, whilekthe Constitution re
mains unchanged and its provisions are obliga
tory upon ns as members of Congress, it is pro
posed to repeal it. While he was not a member
from a slave State, he would vote against this bill
so long as the oath he had taken ~to support the
Consutution was upon his conscience.
Mr. Sherman always thought the law of 1850 un
constitutional, and had no objection to its repeal
now. Be doubted-the propriety of going bask as
far as 1793. and would give the loyal people of the
South all their constitutional rights.
Mr. Sumner .wanted to make a clean sweep
while we were at it, and wipe out the barbarous
eode from our statutes.
Mr.,Sherman would vote against the bill because
he di
not wish to extend the repeal back to the
law of 1793. The States, to a great extent, in which
this law of 1793 was operative were for themselves
rapidly perfecting measures of entire emancipa
tion. Tie moved to amend the bill by inserting
..exeeot the act approved February 14th, t 793, for
the rendition of persons to service or labor."
Mr. Johnson regretted the proposed action, not
because it would have any effect in returning a
single slave, but - upon other grounds. The Con
stitution not only authorized the acts 01'1793 and
IESO, but the framers of that instrument thought it
just and necessary to have some such law. Even
if these laws, as an original proposition, were
maintained to be unconstitutional, the Constitu
tion itself is a fugitive slave law. Without dis
respect to the memory of Justice Story, who had
been referred to by the Senator from Massachusetts,
(Mr. Sumner,) he thought he had suffered by his
failure to convey the true meaning and effect of hie
decision upon the act 01 1793.
In regard to the act of 1950 the Supreme Court,
in the case of Booth, by a unanimous decision con
armed its constitutionality. He would inquire
What practical good was to be the result of this
Measure, and thought it might create unpleasant
Feelings amongst the people of States which are
sectionally loyal, and amoiket the loyal people of
States which are sectionally disloyal. lf, as the
Senator says, the bill purposes to repeal odious
laws, and that it is as clear as the multiplication
table, certainly it is a reproach to keep them on
-our statute books.
But he supposed the men who formed the Con
stitution knew its meaning and true intent as well
-asi the Senator ,from Massachusetts or others in
this bocy. The President of the convention which
framed it, coming from a slave State, know what
the clause of 170 meant. Many of the men who
passed the act 0(1793 were members of the subse
quent Congress, and if the Senator would look at.
, their proceedings he would find that nol one at
tempted to breathe a suspicion that it was not con
.atitutional or expedient.
Mr. Sumner replied, 'whatever the framers of
the Constitution might have meant, the words of.
the. Constitution did not say slaves, out persons.
Mr. Johnson said every member of the Conven
tion knew what he meant, and what every other
member meant. • -
A long colloquy ensued between Mesers.Sumner
and Johnson as to the decision of Chief Justice
Story and its effect on the law of 1793.
Mr. Sumner read from the decision, and said It
clearly gave the right of trial by jury to a fugitive.
- Viewed in this light the Constitution was clearly
on the side of human freedom. The Senator from
Maryland said the bill was not practicable If it
be practicable to relieve us from an unconstitu
tional and odious system. to relieve our names
from the shame it carnes into foreign lands, to do
justice to an oppressed race, thus securing the
favor of lvine Provioence, to relieve ourselves
and country, then the proposition upon which you
are
and d yled to vote is as practicable as humanity
We are not aware of the heavy-burden our coun
try is bearing amongst civilized nations in sustain
ing
t he
odious epee= of human slavery. Genius
'bee epresented Its enormities in marble and on
canvass; literature and art, in all their varied
forms, have exposed its horrors; while those who
-are our enemies abroad have upheld it to our igno
miny and taunted our fnends with it, that pro
fessing to be the freest nation on the globe, while
we kept these odious laws on the statute book we
- were no better than Jeff. Davis's government. It
Was in vain that we inquire into disasters to our
-arm lee, and lament Such massacres as those of
Fort Wagner and Fort Pillow, if we still continue
to sanction by law injustice, thus receiving the
disfavor of God.

lEOUSst OP B.EPRESEstrarivnEl.
Mr. Morrill then examined at length the promi
nent features of the Internal Tax bill.
Mr. Stebbins (N. I" ) said the preservatioci of the
credit of the country demands the passage of this
bill, and taxation sufficient for our demands both
during. and after the war. It was the point. on
which the struggle in which we are now engaged
must ultimate turn. The Government, under the
Constitution, is putting forth its power to preserve
the natioi al life. and performing its solemn duty
in devising the means for the accomplishment of
the great work. Our means are far more ample
than ever before existed, and more extensive than
those of any country on the face of tae - globe.
This he proceeden to show by erence to official
records. The war, he said, thl!ffiga requiring so
many millions of expenditure. had been carried on
at an expense less than the agricultural products
of the country, while the resources have not been
diminished to the extent of a single dollar. Fur
nishing the means of war within ourselves, will
tend to develop still more our industry, and show
the overwhelming power of this-nation. This bill
was a part of the great theta forged by this Con
gress to hold the nation together from the struggle
of eight millions of people to preserve their social
institutions. He could not doubt that the war will
be of long continuance, and terminate only when
the rebels shall submit , hemselves to the Constitu
tionrand laws. Therefore the nation should•place
itself in the strongest position, and guard against
evet , possible approach of exhaustion.
Mr,
_Stebbins reviewed the recuperative energies
of the British, drawing a striving contrast betwe-n
them and our own, which are vastly superior, and
give us the power and ability to overcome our ene
mies. In the course of his t entarks he said the na
tional banks must take the place of the State banks,
as they could o-exist, and expressed himself
in favor .of tax on sales of gold and sterling ex
change as a source of revenue.
The nation, he remarked, was destined to cover
the continent, banded together by diffusive intelli
gence and industry, with an • unlimited. policy of
nternal improvements, consolidated in one na
tionality and directed by the sovereign will of the
people. Pass the tax bill, the bill to prevent gam
bling inzold, and the National B.Jnk bill, and he
believed Congress would receive the blessings of
he people.
MI ...Brooks (N. Y. ) remarked while listening to
the glowing accounts of the gentleman from-Ver
mont and his colleague he had imagined he was
Rendering in the picture galleries of Versailles, or
among the sculptures of the Vatican. where men
were represented in armor and depicting war, bat
without the actual scenes of battle. He had almost
come to the conclusion that war is a blessing, and
debt a Divine institution. The gentleman from
Vermont had mentioned the important fact that
this bill will produce two hundred and fifty mil
lions, while his colleague placed the amount at
three hundred million* of dollars. wan ninety
millions from foreign imports, adding three hun
dred and forty millions of dollars to the public
revenue. His colleague had held up for imitation
the British system of debt and taxation which had
driven the subjects of the kingdom of Great Bri
tain, Ireland, and Scotland to our shores. Taxa
tion does not always produce revenue, and this
point he proceeded to argue. All the inflation of
prices since - December last from the smaller arti
cles of consumption, tea and coffee, to the largest,
beef and pork, and bread, has been occasioned by
the addition by the 'Secretary of the Treasury of
5240,000 beyond what he promised at that time. He
(Mr. Brooks) said that unless the currency is cur
tailed and the expansioh lessened, we will ap
proach a crisis from which no army can rescue the
property and labor of the country. There is no
crime so great as an unnecessary increase of paper
money. It is robbery in the worst form, and
serves to corrupt the morale of the people. The
only way to reduce importation is to check the ex
pense on the currency. The necessity of ending
the war is apparent. He did not believe with his
colleague, Mr. Stebbins, that we can endure a war
indefinitely without bankruptcy. The main object
of hie argument was to produce a curtailment of
currency.
Mr. Hasson (Iowa), alluding to the remarks of
Mr. !Brooks, said he' had been a Whig, then a
Know-Nothing and now a Democrat. The gen
tleman from New York had defended the Irish,
hick was not in accordaffiCe with his former
Know-Nothing principles.
Mr. Brooks denied that lie ever belonged to the
Bnow-Nothing party, or had ever been In a
Know-Nothing lodge. •
Mr. Hasson then pointed to the sentiments of the
Express, of which the gentleman was part proprie
tor.
Arr. Brooks replied that he was In Europe wiles
that party was organized.
Mr. Hasson said the gentleman being a foreigner,
re, of course, could not hold him responsible. He
then briefly defended the Secreiary of tke Treasury
frcm the charge that the latter bad inflated the cur
rency. The inflation wan by the State banks in
New York, as .thi premium on Saturday on the
national currency, as contrasted with the State
insues, demonstrated.
Mr. Fernando Wood, (N. Y.) assumed that the
present bill to meet immense expenditures grew
out of this war, arid, therefore, it was legitimate to
discuss every question pertaining to the war. He
was in favor of giving a liberal support to the Go
vernment. In this emergency he was not pre
pared to criticise too severely the administration
01 public affairs. He believed , that the Adminis
tration Lad undertaken a task for which no man or
set of men were competent; hence there should be
the largest generosity for the mistakes which had
been made. He then proceeded to examine the
financial question. review ing the acts of the Sec
retary of the Treasury, in this connection, in con
demnation. He said this was the first 'time in the
history of the world when any people or govern.
meat bad departed from the common sense urinal
plea of finance in the endeavor to steittain the Go
vernment and prosecute a war. The pending bill
eas full of errors. He wanted a measure equita
ble and fair, and all interests to contribute to the
taxation.
The committee then rose.
Mr. Garfield (Ohio) said—ln my response to my
colleague, Mr. Long, a few days since, I asserted
that many leaders of the Democratic party in the
North were in con espondence with rebel leaders,
and I promised to produce the letters to which I'
then referred. We found that some of oar regi
ments in the Army of the Cumberland were being
corrupted and induced to desert, by politicians at
home, and secret-service men were employed to
find out who was doing It.
One young man went to Indiana, and by repre
senting himself as friendly to the rebels obtained
these letters. He _brought them to me I did sot
know the writers, but called several Indiana oak
cers to examine them, and found from those who
knew the handwriting and the history of the
writers. I took tracings of the letters and
sent the scontwith the originals thfough the lines.

Davis was a member of the Thirty-third, Thirty
fifth and Thirty-sixth congress, and the predeces

Mr. Voorhees. Both were his constituents, and
leading lights in the Democratic party.
Mr. Voorhees replied, what the gentleman had

ported to be copies. Mr. Davis was one of the
most distinguished men in Indiana, and. perhaps,
at this time was dying on a bed of sickness. There
was nothing traitorous about him He might
paonounce those letters spurious and false.
Mr. Garfield replied that he wished the gentle.'

Mr. Voorhees said as that would not suit him, he
would not pursue that course.

At 43 o'clock the House took 'a. recess till 7

son (Iowa) offered a substitute therefor, viz:
That for the better regulation of commerce
among the several States. every railroad company
in the United States whose road is operated by
steam be and is hereby authorized to transport
freight and passengers from one State to another,
anything in any law of any State to the contrary
notwithstanding.

most illustrious civil or military mnn. The bill
appropriates 620,000 for the necessary arraaga
ments.
Mr Morrill (Vt. ) said the old Senate chamber
has been assigned to the Supreme Court, but the
old hall is an unappropriated waste, duped with
cobwebs. Re urged that from its grandeur of
style and its legislative associations it could be ap
propriated to no more fitting or patriotic purpose.
The bill was passed.
The House resumed the consideration of the bill
reported irom the Select Committee providine for
the reconstruction of the overthrown or rebellious
Statfs.
James O. Allen (Ill.); a member of that com
mittee, opposed the bill, arguing that the power
proposed to be exercised to not conferred,hy the
Constitution. Our political fabric is now shaken
to its centre. Ambition, civil war,.and threaten
ing national bankruptcy are testing the strength of
ofour system, and the mends of free governin.nt
everywhere are waiting to rejoice at its triumph or
weep over its downfall. He feared to launch on
unknown seas, but preferred to be guided by the
checks furnished by the fathers of the republic.
The bill was framed on the assumption that these
rebellious States are out of the Union. If he be
lieved this he would regard this war as a sin, and
waged only for revenge and plunder.
This bill would serve only to increase the present
discord. A large pin tion of the South seceded be
cause they thought their rights would be insecure
under the party now in power. If we desire them
to return we must remove the cause of their ap
prehension. This measure actually proposed 10
accomplish what the South feared previous to
their secession. He argued that no necessity ex
ists for this bill, for when the military power shad
be suppiessed the people returning to their alle
giance will see that ail their offices are filled by
men who will respect the authority gr the United
States.
Mr. S.mithers (Del ) said that Speedy action on
this bill seemed apparent. Already by the procla
mation of the President, and prcnunciamentos of
military commanders, the people of the 'rebellious
States are invited to reorganize civil governments.
Unless Congress defines the terms on which repre
sentatives may be admitted here, the way of recon
struction will be rendered more difficult. The first
principle provided by the bill is that until the State
shall bs free from military resistance, the Presi
dentshall appoints governor ad interim to conduct
the civil administration, whtle facilities are to be
afforded for instituting a permanent government.
The bill provides for the calling of a convention,
then recognizing. the right of the people to farm
their own organic laws. Amongst other ploy's.
ions, involuntary servitude is prohibited. The
Constitution,. he argued, is required to guarantee
to every state a republican form of government.
The principle is laid down by Vattel. that if a na
tion is obliged to preserve itself, it is obliged to pre
serve Its members.
He further explained the provisions of the bill,
showing that the loyal people alone were to be
placed in possession of the civil government.
