the relief of settlers on land claims in California.
Mr. Harding and Mr. Conness (Cal.) defended
the bill in reply to Mr. Johnson, who contended
that the policy of its propositions would be inja
alone, as it was a direct interference with the ac
tion of the Judiciary. The bill was passed.
Mr. Harlan (Iowa), from the Committee on Pub
lic Lands, reported the Senate bill granting lands
for railroaes in Minnesota, with the House
amendments, making the grant directly to the
State. It was passed.
The Senate then took up the special order of the
day, the National Currency bill.

banks was passed without amendment.

also, that nothing in this act shall exempt the real
estate of associations from either State, county or

The Senate then adjourned, finding itself without

HOUSE OP REPRESENTATIVES
clay (Ky.), the subject of the pay of colored
troops still being under consideration, said the pro
perty of his constituents hadbeen stolen from their
13 Fants , lons; not only negroes, 'but stock and eye.
rything else. Those who are valuable. are taken
into the military service, while the useless slaves
women and children, are supported at the expense
Of the government, without a particle of law. The
government protects its officers in steally g negroes.
Me knew it to be true, for he had suffered himself,
and of this he would qualify in a court of justice.
Me asked for nothing but what the law and the
Constitution gave him, and when these rights were
trampled under foot, he would raise his voice
against it.
Mr. Eliot said he understood the gentleman from
'Kentucky to charge that the government officers
have stolen negroes. Did the gentleman say that
he bad yet to learn that any such statements rest
ion truth
Dlr. Clay answered, I do!
Mr. Poiot—l think the gentleman would find the
proper redress by applying to the government.
Ir. Clay repeated—l know it to be true.
Mr. Eliot denied the statement that negroes leave
beau stolen by our officers.
Mr. - Holman resuming, said a large number of
contrabands have for months been receiving ra
tions at the hands of the government in this depart
ment.
Mr. Eliot said they were paying more to the go
-vemment than they received by service at the fa
gitive camp, the proceeds going into the treasury.
Mr. Holman knew the contraband men were
employed as teamsters, but how were women and
children employed 1
Mr. Eliot said there were thirty to fifty thousand
dollars standing to the credit of the fund.
Mr. Holman asked the gentleman to refer to
some particular record. He understood the con
trabands were gathered at Arlington, and again
inquired how they were employed 1
Mr. Eliot replied, some were employed in
farming while women were engaged with sewing
machine clothing for the soldiers. A part of the
money was appropriated to their support, and the
Wei ce was in favor of the Government.
Mr. Clay said that thousands of the contrabands
are dying in camp of no diseases ever described
or imagined. Them are rotting in filth.
Mr. Eliot said it had been his warmest wish that
the Freedman' a.Burean should be organised, in
order to avoid these very difficulties.
Mr. Clay resuming, said, such mortality was
the result of your system. Yon care no more for a
xtegro than you do for a horse. Yen are purchasing
np these negroes with bounties to save your white
men. My patience, he said, is worn out. I would
rather be a slaveholder than a robber, stealing all
over the country. The system inaugurated Is
worse than the orginal system of slavery. More
money is required to carry it out than it costs to
clothe the slaves in the South.
Mr. Holman;resuming, melted: Are we prepared
to place, by solemn legislation, the black man on
the same footing with the white soldier Gentle
men, you have got the question to meet. He
warned gentlemen not to break down the barriers,
and resort to such measures as would not promote
the patriotism and morals of the army. The rebel
lion must be put down by the indomitable will of
'white men..
Hr. Price said General Jackson, who had the
reputation of a statesman and a Democrat, placed
whites and blacks on en equality as to pay and
rations. No man who knows the history of the
eenntry would dare deny the truth of the state
=tent This teing the fact, were they to be lectured
here to. day for doing what Jackson did ? No.
The good cease and patriotism of the people were
as prevalent now as during the war of 1812 The
blacks a- e physically equal to the whites, and this
was apparent and well known.
Kr. Stevens, (Pa) did not see any particular
reason for excitement. It was the last convulsive
throe of the struggle he had reenter the last twenty
years of those who dominated this nation, which
he never expected to see conquered, but hoped to
live to see "subdued. He did not reproach those
gentlemen for this natural convulsive effort to pre
serve slavery, which he witnessed today. The
question was whether all soldiers who wear the
livery of the Union, and march under its banner
in common with the army of the Union, and who
expose themselves to battle and death, shall be
placed on an equality, or whether we are to keep
up an unjust distinction. He despised su-.11. a dis-
tinction between troops in the day of death and
battle.
Why should they not be paid and clothed alike?
Why should they not for an equal reason make a
distinction between soldiers of different nationali
ties? The colored troops have fought as gallantly
and died as freely as their white brethren at Fort
"Wagner and other places. The gentleman (Mr.
Holman) will not dare deny it. Umversal history
shows they have fought as gallantly and bravely
as the white men at their side, and yet this in
famous and degrading distinction is to be kept up.
let nut the nation for a moment sanction it. Let
it not go forth as the opinion of this body that the
black and red men are not to be treated like ether
3nen who peril their lives in the country's de
fence.
Mr. Reny (Pa. ) referred to historical facts that
the first. blood shed in Massachusetts prior to the
battle of Lexington was that of Peter k ranciscns,
a negro *nap, who headed the Boston mob; and
that the first blood during this rebellion, shed in
the streets of Baltimore, was that of a negro
named Nicholas Biddle, who was a follower of
less than five hundred men. This might be a mere
coincidence, but certainly here were two facts
which became a body of men who believe all men
are created free and equal to bear in mind, and
which should do something to remove the preju
dice which has cursed us within the last three
years. The gentleman from Indiana, hir. Holman,
had told the House negroes never should have
enlisted. Did he not know we have now one hun
dred and thirty thousand negro soldiers to fight the
rebels who are in arms against our brothers and
-friends?
Such opposition could come from so other
motive. Among other things, Mr. Kelley alluded
to the cheers from white soldiers •vrhich greeted the
colored troops that recently marched through the
streets with Burnside's Corps. The rebels murder
our black soldiers. They turn to you and cite
you as witnesses of the propriety of their conduct.
We say the rebels treat them with crnelty, and yet
we refuse to give them the equality which their
services demand. They cannot fight without pay
It was a citsg,racS to deny them their righter, and
our children who shall peruse this page of history
Will blush with shame.
Mr. Patterson (N. H.) ssid the record of Mas
sachusetts was so full of patriotic deeds that she
could well afford to leave New Hampshire the
little glory that belongs to her. The first man
Whose blood was shed in this rebellion, in Bat
tiniore, was enlisted in Massachusetts, but he was
a native of New Hampshire, and his remains now
repose in Alexandria, in his (Mr. Patterson's)
district of that State.
Mr Holman offered an amendment to increase
the Day of soldiers to twenty dollars per month,
ram {+; :ft:lrtu: 7941,
r o e ffi is c i e o r n s din F increase of pay of non-commissioned
-"-• , • •
Mr. Stevens said that amendment was not peril-.
neat to the subject.
The Speaker Fr.- tatned the objection.
Mr. Holman t, kan appeal from that decision,
when the Speaker was sustained by laying the
amendmet.. on the table by a yore of 95 yeas to 25
nays.
Mr. Schenck offered an amendment to the pend
ing Senate amendment, making the. equalization
of pay to commence on the first of May instead
of the first of January. This was disagreed, to by
a vote of 58 yeas against 65 nays.
Mr. Holman rnoVi'd to strike out the word
"pay," which was rejected—yeas 52, nays 83.
The House then agreed to the Senate's amend
ment to equality of pay, - etc: Yeas 81. nays 49.

The House at half-past four o' clock, took a re
cess till seven o' clock.
Evening Session.—To-night was set apart for
speech-making; although a majority of the House
voted for the recess, not more than twenty mem
bers were pres.ent.
Mr. Thayer (Pa.) in the course of his speeeli,
said that slavery had impaired the moral sense of
the Southern people, and State sovereignty cor
rupted their political faith, both combined, drove
them into the desperate war now waged against. it.
Both evils must be exterminal..6 before the country
can be restored to peace and prosperity. The
Democrats use their same doctrine of State so
vereignty in their opposit on to the Administra
tion.
Mr. Leaman (Ky.) also made a speech, and the
House adjourned.
