xxxvinm CONGRESS-FIRST SESSION:
CLOSE. OT :YESTERDAY'S PROOREDINGS.
WASHINGTON, April 21.
'SENATE.—Mr. Morrill, (Me.), from the Corn
=Wee on Commerce, reported favorably on the
bill to regulate the foreign coasting trade on the
Northwestern frontier.
Mr. Collamer, (Vt. ), from the Committee en
Post Offices and Post Roads, reported back the
House bill for the relief of postmasters who have
been robbed by the confederate forces or guerillas,
and it was passed.
Mr. Collamer from the same committee, reported
favorably on the House bill to establish a money
order system, and the bill to secure the speedy
transmission of the mails. He also introduced a
bill relating to franked matter, which was referred
to the Committee on Post Offices and Post Roads.
On motion of - Mr. Wilson, (Mass.), the Senate
joint resolution to provide for the printine of the
official reports of the operation's of the armies of
the United States was passed. It directs the
Secretary of War to transmit to the Superintendent
of Public Printing copies of all official reports, and
of all telegrams and dispatches not heretofore pub
lished by order of either House of Congress, relat
ing to the movements, engagements and operations
generally of the armies of the 'United titates which,
in his judgment, the public interest may not re
quire to be kept secret, commencing with the first
day of December, 1860.
Mr. Morrill, from the Committee on Commerce,
asked to be discharged from the further considers
tion of the bill which extends to the district courts
the same jurisdiction over matters of contract or
tort, arising upon steamboats er other vessels
'Which is now possessed over seagoing vessels. He
asked the reference of the bill to the Committee on
the Judiciary, and it was so referred.
Mr. Howe (Wis.) called up the bill to establish
an assay office at Carson City, in Nevada, and at
Dallas City, Oregon, and addressed the Senate at
some length in defence of Mr. Pollock, the super
intendent of the Philadelphia Mint, who had writ
ten a letter re opposition to an amendment pro
posed by Mr. Nesmith, of Oregon, for establishing
a mint at Dallas City instead of an assay office.
Mr. Nesmith bad formerly spoken in sharp ridi
cale of the superintendent's views on the subject.
After some reply by Mr. Nesmith, the amend
ment for a brancn mint was adopted, and the bill
laid aside.
The Senate then proceeded to the consideration
Of the bill to repeal the fugitive slave law.
Mr. Van Winkle (W. 17a. ) said that the remarks
he would make, though not peculiarly applicable
to the bill under consideration, would not be in
appropriate. The burden of the war, in contribu
lions of men and money, had been borne by the
States North, yet they had escaped the ruin and
devastation to which the Border States uad been
subjected. In the States nearest to the seat of war
loyalty to the Union has a meaning which does not
attach to it elsewhere. This remark was not in
tended to depreciate the sterling patriotism !of the
North, but to - vindicate that of the Border States,
by proving that the large majority of their people
have remained constant under the most trying cir
cumstances. For himself, he could not concede
one jot or title to those who are in arms against us.
But the day will come. in the pleasure of Provi
dence, when every right-minded man will desire
to take by the hand, in all cordiality and affection.
those who have repented of the evil they sought to
do unto us.
Mr. Van Winkle then proceeded to speak in
condemnation of a class in the Northern and bor
der States, who, while professing a horror of se
cession, and of love for the Union, are constantly
denouncing those who are carrying on the war.
Was it just, if errors had been committed, to ac
cuse the Administration of unworthy motives?
The Government may deserve rebuke,. bat need
the rebuke be angry ? He then proceeded to prove
that West Virginia was legally and Constitu
tionally one of the United States, and controverted
the ground taken by Mr. Davis of Kentucky, on
this subject. He said the only question to be de
termined in order to establish the constitutional
ity of the erection of the State of West Virginia,
within the jurisdiction of Virginia as one of the
United States, was whether the Legislature which
gave its consent to such erection, was the tree Leg
islature of Virginia. He quoted taticle fourth of
the Constitution, Which, according, to Mr. Mad
ison, permitted a new State to be erected within
the jurisdiction of another State.
Mr. Van Winkle stated the circumstances that
justified the reorganization of the Virginia State
government, giving in detail a history of the se.
cession movement which rendered It necessary.
The loyal men of Virginia fully justified them
selves in the eyes of mankind, and best maintained
their State allegiance, when they adopted the only
course by which their State could be saved to the
Union. What might have been the consequences
if the men of West Virginia had succumbed to the
Richmond oligarchy She had sent more than
twenty thousand men to aid the Union cause. If
the men had- espoused the other cause, the con
federate army, rejoicing in their additional -
strength, would have occupied the valley of the
Ohio, including Western Pennsylyania, long be
fore the first battle of Bull Run.
Mr. Van Winkle said he believed that the
amendment to the Constitution abolishing slavery
would meet the approval of the people of West
Virginia,
as in his opinion the great majority of
his constituents would at any time since 1612 have
voted for gradual emancipation by the State gov
ernment, if it had been presented to theta as an
isolated question In a legal constitutional wa.
White this was the cause, be was opposed to the
pressing upon the people the repeal of the fugitive
slave law, and the elevation of the negro to the
level of citizenship, against the decision of courts
and the practice of the government from its foun
dation. Pereons of the negro race were unques
tionably not counted among "We, the people,"
who establiphed the Constitution of the United
States. Nor were they at that time permitted to
exercise the rights and privileges of citizenship in
any State, nor could they obtain passports to
foreign countries.
Be denied that they could be made citizens by
the act of Congress, or by the clause in the Declara
tion of Independence, which declared "all men
are created equal," as our sires certainly did no
intend to say that an urmaturalized Frenchman,
sojourning in England should enjoy the same po
litical rights as a native born.
Mr. Howard (Mich.) moved an amendment to
the bill, providing that no person found in any
territory, or the District of Columbia, shall be
deemed to have been held in service, or be enslaved
under the act of 1793, and that the fourth section
of said act be repealed.
The further consideration of the bill was post
poned, on motion of Mr. Conness (Cal.) to Wed
nesday next, at one o' clock.
Mr. Sherman (Ohio) reported the House blil to
provide a national currency by the pledge of
United States bonds, and to provide for the circu
lation and redemption thereof, with amendments;
the only important one being the striking out of
the provision relative to taxation by States of the
capital, circulation, and business of banking as
sociations, and the substitution of the following
amendments -
In lien of all other taxes, every association shall
pay the United Staten Treasurer, in the months of
January and July, a duty of one-half of one per
Lent. each half year, en and alter January, 1604,
upon the average amount of circulation; a duty of
one-quarter of one per cent, each half year upon
the average amount of deposits; a duty of one. of one per cent. each half year upon the
average amount of capital stock beyond the amount
invested in United States bonds, and in case of de
fault in the payment by any association, the duties
may be collected as provided for the collection of
United States duties of other corporations; or the
Treasurer may reserve the amount out of the in
tesest due on the bonds deposited.
The return of the average amount of notes, de
nosits, and stocks beyond that invested in bonds,
is required to be made under oath, within ten days
from the Ist of January and July, under penalty
of 6901 for each default, to be collected either from
the interest on bonds, or, as collections are made
from other corporations. at the option of the
United States Treasurer; and the duties shall then
be levied according to the amount of notes in
circulation, and deposits and further capital, to oe
ascertained in such manner as the Treasurer may
deem best.
It :s ovided that this section shall not be con
strued to prevent the market value of the shares of
such associations being included in the valuation
of the personal property of any individal or corpo
raticn in the assessment of taxes under S ate
authority at a rate no higher than is assessed on
.other capitals • in the hands of citizens of such
State, and provides that there shall be no exemp
tion of the real estate of the association from State
or municipal taxes.
Mr. Fessenden moved to take up the Army Ap
propriation bill, which was carried.
The Senate went Into Executive session, and
shortly alter adjourned
lioll
SE OY REPREsENTATivES.
The House went into Committee of the Whole on
the Internal Tax till
At one o'clock the Committee had acted on all
the general provisions of the bill, comprising
ferry -sev en sections.
Mr. Wsshburne offered an amendment pro
viding that the stocks of liquors on hand be taxed
•50 cents per gallon. He said he did not propose to
discuss at length his proposition, because it had
been freely debated when the subject was before
the Committee of the House. It was merely car
rying out the Principle heretofore adopted by Con.
_gress. Under the law passed some time ago, for
eign liquors vete taxed, and were now Passing a
-duty of 40 costs per gallon..
Mr. Stevens (pa ) said he hoped this subject
would not have been brought up here again to
agitate the House and the country. It had alread
been settled by this House and there should be no
retroactive tax. There was an incongruity, it was
true, in the ill Which he a d been previously
adopted, with rbegard tax on foreign spirits,
but a bill had, he belleved.been introduced in the
s ee: e s to repeal the law, which would, no doubt,
be passed. He understood that, anticipating its
prompt repeal, the Secretary of the Treasury had
never riven any orders to enforce the collections.
He hoped this crusade would cease, and this bill
be promptly passed and not put in a shape which
would seep it lingering between the two Hou ses
through the remainder of the session. :We bad lost
$4,000 100 by the,course heretofore pursued on this
subject.
Mr. Washburne remarked he did not wish to.
Co int., VL ad: allejeCr i knit t 9 ass
•
sure the gentleman from Pennsylvania that his
Was not a factious opposition. He had, when the
former bill passed, given notice that when a bill
was reported he should introduce this amend
ment. He wanted to obtain a vote of this House
upon this subject.. The gentleman remarked that
we bad lost $4,00a.000 by the former discussion
and action of this Rouse on the matter. He
- inform that gentleman and the country that we
lost $20,000,000 by not insisting upon the proposi
tion of the gentleman from New York, Mr. Fer
nando Wood.
Mr. Stevens remarked he would do the gentle
man the justice to acknowledge that he did give
the notice he mentioned. He also recollected the
gentleman had introduced a resolution instructing
the committee on Ways and Means to bring in a
bill providing for a tax on stOcks on hand, which
was not adopted. He believed that such a tax was
a violation of the solemnly pledged faith of tee
country. The gentleman said we lost $20,000,
COO by the rejection of this tax. The largest esti
mate he could make of the amount which could
have been derived from it, if all had been collect
ed, was $4,000,000.
Mr. James 0. Allen (Ili.) remarked he was op
posed to the amendment of his colleague. In the
discussion which heretofore took place on this
subject, the country had been satisfied, except his
colleague anfftwo or three other gentlemen, of the
impracticability of the measure. If this amend
ment was adopted, the principls involved would
open up a discussion which would keep us here
until the first of January.
Mr. Fernando Wood expressed his hope that
Mr. Washburne's amendment would be adopted.'
Mr. Broomall (Pa.) was opposed to this ques
tion of retaxing spirits when up before. He knew
no reason why this was persisted in with retard to
whiskey, excepting it was whiskey, and this he
did not consider a sufficient reason. What he
wanted was to offset Illinois against Illinois. He
then sent up and had read by the Clerk the address
of representative Lovejoy to the House laid be
fore them during the previogs discussion of the
subject.
Mr. Morrill (Vt.) said he regarded this-as a mis
chievous proposition. It could not pass the
Senate. It was very important that this bill should
be promptly passed, in order that it may take
effect before the first of May, so as to operate upon
the income tax. There is a certain sort of symme
try in the bill as it stood. In order to continue
that symmetry it would be necessary, if the gentle
man's principle was adopted, that the additional
tax should be applied to spirits which should be
manufactured hereafter.
Mr. Wa.shburne's amendment was rejected by a
vote of 52 yeas to 70 nays
Mr. Fernando Wood offered the following as a
new section
And be it further enacted, That so much of the
seventh section of the act of Congress of March
7th, 1161, to increase the internal-revenue, &c., as
levies a tax on spirits imported prior to March
7th, 1E64, be and hereby is repealed, and that the
Secretary of the Treasury be directed to refund to
persons paying the same all moneys thus exacted
on spirits, the original entry of which was made
prior to said March 7th, 1164.
He said the law of March last levied a. tax of
forty cents per gallon on all imported liquor on
hand, while notwithstanding his efforts to include
domestic liquors, the latter were exempt There
was no justice in this. Why should importers
who have sent forward orders to Europe for goods
predicated upon the tariff and tax bills existing at
the time orders were given, be made to bear not
only the additional tax imposed before their ar
rival, but indeed liable to have taxes imposed long
after their arrival, while dealers in domestic li
quors were to be exempt? You refuse to tax do
mestic spirits on hand, but do not extend the prin
ciple to foreign liquors on hand. It appears to
me that importers have strong equities on their
side.
At the suggestion of several gentlemen, Mr. Wood
withdrew his amendment for the present, giving
notice he would offer it at a f attire stage of the pro
ceedings.
An amendment was adopted including naphtha in
the section, which . provides that all distilled
spirits, and all refined coal oil upon which an ex.
cise duty is imposed, may be exported without
payment of duty when the same is intended for
exportation.
During the proceedings on Mr. Washbnrne's
amendment,. Mr. Grinnell moved to Insert the
words "since great are the charms of cheap
whiskey." [Laughter.] He also unsuccessfully
moved to increase the tax from fl to 131 50 per
gallon.
Mr. Law (Ind.) offered an amendment,reducing
Mrtipsy on all beer, lager beer, ale, porter and
other similar fermented liquors, from gl to 50 cents
per barrel. The tax proposed was too high, and
he debated the question as one of morals, as well
as revenue, for the use of such fermented liquors
diminished the use of spirituous liquors.
The amendment was rejected by a vote of 32 yeas
against 74 nays.
Kir. Jas. O. Allen moved to reduce tbe tax to 60
cents, contending that this would yield larger re.
venue than at 81.
Mr. Morrill (Vt. ), said when the duty was levied
on these articles, the brewers throughout the court.
try only demanded they should be placed on an
equality with other spirits. We have raises the
duty on spirits, and if that on beer, &c., was pro
porticnatety raised, we would now put on the lat..
ter a tax of $2 50 on each barrel.
Mr. Pike moved to make the tax 32 per barrel.
His amendment, together with Mr. Allen's, was
rejected.
An amendment was added providing beer,
porter, and all other similar fermented liquors in
bottles shall pay no lower rate of duty than the
proportion of 31 a barrel. The committee have thus
far acted upon seventy-flue of the one hundred and
seventy-three sections.
----- -
The House at 4.30 took a recess until 7 o'clock.
Evening,.Sessipn. —The bill for the construction of
a ship canal to unite the Mississippi with the north
ern lakes, for the...passage of armed vessels, was
taken up as a special order.
Mr. Dawes (Mass.) declared his friendship for
the measure, but believing this was not a favorable
time for its consideration, he moved that It be
postponed till the second Tuesday in December
next.
Mr. Arnold (Ill.) recognized the gentleman as en
earnest and sincere friend of the measure. Waving
consulted with its friends and conferred with the
Illinois delegation, he was compelled, very re
luctantly, not to oppose the motion of the gentle.
man from Massachusetts. He had hoped that this
Congress would have authorized this great na.
tional improvement to be commenced as another
link to hold the Union together.
Mr. Stuart (Ill.) also alluded , to the fact that the
delegation from that State had, in view of oar pre.
cent national affairs, come to the conclusion that
it were better to postpone the bill till the next ses.
sion.
The motion of Mr. Dawe■ was agreed to.
The bill reported on Saturday by Mr. Wash.
burne, from the Committee to Encourage Emigra.
tion, was passed.
Mr. Jenckes (R. I.), from the select committee
on the subject, reported a bill to establish a uni
form system of bankruptcy. He moved that it be
postponed till the the 4th of May. Objection being
made to this motion, at his instance the bill was
recommitted and ordered to be printed.
On motion of Mr. Stevens (Pa. ), the House
went into committee, Mr. Pomeroy (N. Y.) in
the chair, on the bill to pay the expenses in call
ing out the militia of that State to repel the in Til•
sion.
Mr. Cox (Ohio) offered a substitute, with cart
ons amendment s,so as to make it provide for Penn
sylvania, New York, New Yersey, Maryland,
Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky, Missouri, lowa, Illi
nois, West Virginia and Kansas, in calling out
militia and minute men to repel rebel raids, and
appropriating $l5, 000,000.
i lk
Mr. Stevens said that all the s apart front
te
Pennsylvania, similarly situate ve been paid,
and he hoped that the House w do jastice to
those who advanced the money to ennsylvania to
defray the expenses. He had trusted that the claim
would have received a fair, honest and candid
consideration, but he was inclined to regard the
substitute of Mr. Cox as intended to defeat the bill.
Mr. Stevens caused a letter to be read from the
Secretary of War, recommending an appropria
tion of 5700,000 as justly due, and this was endorsed
by President Lincoln.
Mr. Cox disavowed the imputation that he had
offered his substitute to embarrass the bill. He
did not desire to prejudice Pennsylvania's claim,
and he hoped the gentleman would do him justice.
Mr. Steven■ replied that with that explanation
be withdrew the remark concerning the gentle
man.
Par. Wilson (Iowa) remarked that the militia of
Pennsylvania had not been mustered into the UM- .
led States service.
Mr. Stevens explained that the militia were un
der Federal officers. It was dishonest to refuse
to pay the claim. ➢Zany persons in Pennsylvania
hao not only been roboed but bankrupted by the
raid. Pennsylvania had been treated worse than
any other Slate, alter all her sacrifices. -
Mr. Wilson objected to the character of the gen
tifnian s remarks. He did not recognize the right
of that gentleman to talk in that way to any other
member.
Mr. Stevens replied that his language was not
personal
Mr. 'Wilson said that the gentleman had charged
dishonesty on all whe opposed the bill.
Mr. Stevens remarked that the refusal to pay a
claim of this kind is not honest.
Mr. ICalbfleisch i (New York) would not say
that the judgment of the gentleman from Pennsyl-'
vania was not honest, but it was warped mightily.
Mr. Gannon said that Pennsylvania did not
maintain a position better than any other State to'
give her a preference. Seine of her militia were
not mustered into the service of the United States.
13e offered as amendment that none of the money
shall be paid to those who refused to be mustered
into the service of the United States.
Mr. Stevens showed from the report ofthe Adju
tant-General of Pennsylvania that the militia were
mustered in.
Mr. Ganson replied that there was evidently_ a
miaunderstauding between Pennsylvania and the
general government.
Mr. Blaine (Me.) proposed a substitute pro
vieing for a Board of three Oommirsioners, to take
the whole subject into consideration, and see what
is due to all the loyal States for equipping and
sending troops into the field and that they report
the. Total attionnt, with a view to their vtymeat
fIC)4IA7 .
• : ' - ► '1111„ FRIDAY. APRIL 22, 1864
KT.Mr. Dawes (Mass.) did not think the bill should
be opposed on the.ground that the militia were not
mustered into the service of the 'United S.ates. It
was most certain they were in the service. he op
posed the bill for other reasons, namely, the pre
sent state of the Treasury, and thought Massachu-
setts and PennsYlvania and other States should set
the patriotic example of waiting until a more fa
vorable season.
Mr. Miller (Pa.) said the imputations thrown
upon the justice of the claims of that State were
unworthy otthe representative who made them.
Pennsylvania, the Keystone State, asked no de
fence as long as she had no opportunity of unfold
ing her own records. The people of that State
have never been slow to do their duty, and have
failed in no particular. She was prompt to re
spond to the call for troops in behalf of whom this
bill was Intended. He did not believe ' as had been
asserted, that , this government is on the verge of
bankruptcy. The C ebt of the country in the future
was the leastof its troubles. By way of deprecia
ting, the service of Pennsylvania, it was said New
York and New Jersey had hastened to protect the
borders of Pennsylvania. After conceding all the
Patriotism-and magnanimity due to those States,
be claimed that they defended themselves when
they defended Pennsylvania, for if Lee had pene
trated to the heart of that State the seat of trouble
would have been transferred to those States.
Without disposing of the bill the Committee rose,
and the House at 10 o'clock adjourned.
