.Uousz.—Mr. Garfield (Ohio) introduced the
resolution to which Mr. Ancona (Pa.) objected
yesterday,in which he quoted the remark here
tofore made by F. P. Blair, to- the effect
that Secretary Chase is Making use of the
income from abandoned plantations to carry
out the programme of the Pomeroy se
cret circular, and was against the Adminis
tration, which gave him place; that nobody
believes he has retired as a candidate for the
Presidency, although he had_said so in a letter,
but is working underground and using his pub
lic position to promote his own political
schemes, thus running the Pomeroy machine.
The preamble further quotes from the New
York World and Constitutional Union, which
papers contained articles charging frauds in the
fraclional currency, &c., and as the Hon. James
Brooks has to-day repeated the substance of
these articles, therefore

pers. •
Hr. Holman (Ind.) suggested that the col
mitten consist of nine members with leave to
report at any time.
Mr. Garfield consen • $ the amendment.
Mr,, Brooks did not objee2 , to the resolution,
but to the misrepresentation $ f his remarks as
quoted in the preamble.
Mr. Garfield replied that he A• d adopted the
remarks as taken by the official reporter.
Mr. Brooks said his remark was "millions
upon millions of public money in the Treasury
Bureau of Printing had been placed at the
peril of sacrifice." •
Mr. Garfield—l took the exact words of the
reporter and cannot change them.
Mr. Brooks desired to have his remark about
the printing of public money properly stated.
Mr. Broomall (Pa.) objected.
Mr. Brooks remarked that he ought to be
allowed to repeat what he actually did say; bat
as objection was made he would take the reso
lution as reported.

Mr. Stevens reported fi.om the Committee of
Ways and Means, -the Senate'it aritendmtmts to
the army appropriation bill. Among them is
one, which was adopted, appropriating $45,000
for the purchase of artificial limbs for soldiers
and sailors.
The next ;Senate amendment was read, and
in which the committee recommended concur
rence, that Colored persons Mustered into the
militia service shall receive the. same uniform
clothing, arms,' equipinents; rations, medical
and hospital attendance, pay and emoluments
as *late soldiers, from and after the Ist of
January, 1864, and every person of color here
after mustered into the service shall receive a
bounty not exceeding $lOO.,
hir. Holman said white soldiers now receive
$l3 and eolored.soldiers $lO per month. The
proposition is to raise the pay of the blacks to
ae former amount, but there is no effort to
crease the pay of the white g Soldiers, while in
addition to equalizing the pay for the benefit
of black soldiers, the Government is also sup
porting the wives and children of colored
soldiers.
The negroes have not been employed to re
lieve white soldiers in the South as was hereto
fore claimed to be the purpose, but the latter
were sent to toil and fight under the hot suns
of the South to which they were not accus
tomed.
Mr. Elliot (Mass.) in explanation said that
the wives and children of the fugitives and
freedmen have only to a certain extent been
relieved as cases appealing to humanity
Mr. Holman remarked that whenever, on the
Mississippi river, contraband camps have been
established and colored soldiers enlisted, their
wives and children are furnished with supplies
and supported by the Government.
Mr. Elliot inquired whether the gentleman
would have such persons starve for the want
of aid.
Mr. Holman replied that he did not wish to
be understood as complaining of the. Govern
ment for exercising humane offices, but he did
eomplain that provision was made for the wives
and childred of colored soldiers, while no cor
responding advantage is afforded to those of
wbite soldiers.
Ganson, during a colloquy with Mr,
Elie t, said the black men in the Free States
never receive the same compensation as whites,
their services not being so valuable.
Mr. Eliot begged the gentleman's pardon.
Mr. Ganson said, 1 except New England.
Mr. Eliot made a statement to show that
many of the contrabands were earning more
than was required for their support.
