34.f.,Spragne, presented the memorial of
manufacturers of sheet iron, bronze colors,
salt, cigars, and other articles, stating that
the import duty is so, low as to operate
against home manufactories, and asking for
a remedy in increased import duties.
Mr:. Sprague said he had introduced a re
solution on this subject recently, merely as
a resolution of inquiry; he had desired
simply to give a voice of warning, which
his own experience had taught him wa3
necessary. He had no interest in any par
ticular department of manufacture, but he
knew that it was necessary to protect tho
manufacturing interests of this country.
He did not believe that certain foreign na
tions were entitled to the sympathy of the
Senate, and when he saw petitions intro
duced here which came from men who
were paid by parties in other countries, he
could nothelp doubting the honesty of their
purpose. All that he had to say of a per
sonal nature was that the criticisms and
complaints of a certain New York paper
and of a member of the other House was
that it was plain to him the course of this
newspaper, and of the party to which it be
longed, hat been for four years inimical to
this country.
Several petitions for a protective tariff
were offered by Messrs. Howe and Cowan,
and referred to the Finance Committee.
Mr. Wilson, from the Military Commit
tee, reported favorably a bill in relation to
the re-establishment of 'a National Military
and Naval Asylum for the relief of totally
disabled officers and soldiers of the United
States Army.
Mr. Howard offered a joint resolution
declaring that whereas it appears by the
report of the Secretary of War, that Jeffer
son Davis and C.C. Clay are held in confine
menty. as having been concerned in the
assassination of President Lincoln, and for
the murder of Federal soldiers held as
piisoners of war, therefore, it be respect
fully recommended that Jefferson Davis
and. Clement C. Clay be tried immediately,
by a military commission or court martial.
Objected to, and goes over till to-morrow.
Mr. Chandler called attention to a resolu
tion offered by him on the 14th of Decem
ber, 1864, directing the Secretary of State to
Make out a list of American vessels de
stroyed by British pirates in the employ of
the rebel. government. Since that time he
said the bill had been presented, and the
British government had refused to settle it,
and not only so, but had refused to continue
the controversy on the subject.
Mr. Chandler said the proper course for
this country was absolute non-intercourse
with Great Britain until this bill was set
tled. True, we might declare war and
blockade British ports, and the world would
applaud us, but non-intercourse was the
best peaceful mode of redress. He believed
that Mr. Seward understood that in the
event of a war between Great Britain and
any other nation, American . pirates would
destroy British commerce, just as in the
ate war British pirates had destroyed Ame
rican ships.
Mr. Chandler, at the conclusion of his re
marks, offered a joint resolution declaring
that
Whereas, By the recent publication of the
diplomatic correspondence this government
and Great Britain are fully advised that the
last-named government has refused to re
pair damages committed on American com
merce through the agencies of her subjects
during the late rebellion ' and has declined
to arbitrate and finally to further hear on
the subject. Therefore
.Resolved, That the President is hereby re
-quested to withdraw our Minister from the
Court of St. James, and make procla
mation of national non-intercourse, which
is hereby declared to take effect after such
proclamation shall have been issued.
Mr. Chandler asked for the immediate
consideration of the above, but Mr. Dixon
objecting, it went over.
Mr. Nesmith offered a resolution instruct
ing the Military Committee to inquire into
the expediency of a law distributing brevet
rank among those only who have served
with distinction in the field, and who have
been spoken of with commendation in offi
cial reports; also, to inquire into the expo
•diency of providing for the appointment of
board to examine the qualifications of
'officers, which was passed.
Mr. Nye called up a bill to facilitate pos
tal, commercial and military communica
tion between the States, with an amendment
from the Committee on Commerceproviding
that this bill shall not interfere with any
contract now existing between the govern
ment and any railroad.
Mr. Foot spoke in favor of the bill, and
argued that Congress had a constitutional
• right to pass such a measure, quoting from
several authorities on the subject. He held
that the right to regulate commerce between
the several States belonged to Congress as
much as the right to regulate intercourse
between the United States and foreign na
tions, or between the United States and the
Indian tribes.
Mr. Morrill (Me.), at the conclusion of Mr.
Foot's speech, moved to take up the bill to
regulate the elective franchise in the District
of Columbia. The bill _confers the right of
suffrage upon all male persons of twenty
one years and over who have resided one
year in the-District before the election, and
prescribes the punishment for interfering
with the exercise of the elective 'franchise
in-the case of any person or persons.
Mr. Davis (Ky.) said he proposed to de
bate the bill, and asked that it be postponed
till to-morrow.
Mr. Trumbull (Ill.) said the Freedmen's
Bureau bill was the order of the day for to
morrow, and he should insist upon taking
it up at that time.
Mr. Davis moved to postpone the bill until
•
to-morrow. Carried.
Mr. Wilson "(Mass.) called up the bill to,
amend an act entitled "An act to incor
paraka national, nailitary and naval :asylum
tbr the relief•of ,the -totally disabled officer.._
and men of the volunteer forces of the
United States." .
If prOVisfes - that Ulysses S. Grant,
,and
others named in the ) bill,, are hereby_ con
stituted and, created a, body corporate in the
District of. Columbia; thatthe , said corpora
tion shall have authority' , to procure for
early use suitable places and sites. for mili
tary RSyltatis r for all ipertsons'serving in the
war ofthe rebellion, not , provid,ed for by
existing laws, who have been or may here
afterhe ditiqualified froth procuring ,their
own maintenance and support- by reason
of wounds or sickness contracted in• the
service.
_• On • motion of Mr, Grimes (Iowa), the
bill was so amended as to make it apply
exclusivelYto persons discharged from the
On motion of Mr. Wilson; • the farther
consideration of the bill was postponed till
to-morrow,-and the Senate, at 3.15 o'clock,
proceeded to the consideration'of Executive
business; and soon after adjourned. , •
HOIISF,, - Mr." Ancona (Pa.), offered a re
golition, which; was agreed to, that the
Coriamittee on Mileage be directed to bring
in a bill fixing the rate of mileage so ae to
equalize the compensations of Senators and
Representatives in Cengre.ss. ' •
On motion of Mr., Kelley (Pa.) it was re
solvedthat the,use of the Hall of the House,
of Representativei be granted to the United
States-Ehristian Commission, on. Sunday,
February 11th, for. the purpose of holding
its anniversary meeting—yeas 117,, naysl3B.
The bill of the House to, facilitate , postal
and military communication P
tween several States having been returned
from the Senate, by request of the House,
Mr. Washburne (Ill.) moved that the vote ,
by which,it passed be reconsidered, with
view ; to having it committed to the Comintit
tee on the Judiciary; and that they be au
thorized to report at any time.
There was Objection to the - latter part of
the motion.
Mr. Stevens (Pa.) introduced a resolution
that the Committee on the Judiciary be in
structed to inquire into the expediency of so
amending the act of January 24, ; 1865, ra
ting to the test oath, as to allow attorneys
at-law to practise their profession without
taking the said oath, on equal footing with
all other professions. He said that the act
in question was passed during the war, by
which attorneys were prohibited from prac
tising unless they' Could take an oath that
they were not engaged in the rebellion.
Since the war a large number of men
engaged in the legal profession are trying to
make a living, but are prevented from doing
to by this law. He did not see why they
should be subjected to a provision not applied
to other professions, and hence the proposed
inquiry.
The House adopted the resolution. Yeas

Mr. Kasson (Iowa) said that on Friday a
bitter partisan paper of New York pub
lished a statement involving a charge
of larceny against the late President and the
unfortunate lady bereaved by his death.
As the charge was that public property,
bought by the United States, had been
.stolen for their private advantage,uThe
wished before the falsehood had traveled
further, to say to the House and the coun
try that at• the time it appeared the Com
mittee on Appropriations were considering
the propriety of additional expenditures for
• the Executive mansion, and wire making
an examination as to the alleged disappear
ance of the property, and the result of •it
was that, after the examination of numer
ous witnesses, not a solitary article ever
paid for by the money of the United States
was found removed by the occupants of
the White House. On the contrary, the
only instance which may have famished the
foundation for the slander Eas, that one arti
cle,used in the family, hading been held by
thef widow as precious, being the object of
President Lincoln's admiration, she asked
that it might be taken away by her as
private property. The matter was stated to
the officer in charge. The Commissioner of
Public Buildings reported to the Secretary
of, the Interior, who said he could not be
lieve any one could object to her taking the
memento associated with the memory of
her husband. It was worth about one
• hundred and fifty dollars. With this ex
ception not a solitary article had been re
, moved, and he asked the Associated Press,
• and the manhood and magnanimity of the
House not' only to crush the slander, but
I the slanderer of a woman deprived, as she
had been, of a husband murdered while in
the service of his country.
Mr. Rigby (Cal.) inquired in what paper
the article appeared.
Mr. Kasson replied that he heard of the
slander - through the New York Herald,
which had noticed the statement in Ben
Wood's paper, the Daily News. He wished
further to say as to the charge of a large
number of boxes having disappeared from
the White House, that these boxes were
small, and had been used by the lady of
that mansion in which to enclose bouquets
of flowers as presents to her friends, which
she had a right to make.
Mr. Spaulding asked whether the injunc
tion of secrecy bad been removed from the
proceedings of the committee?
Mr. Kasson replied he had deemed that a
member of the committee might make the
statement, so that no credit might be given
to the slander in the absence of truth.
Mr. Spaulding—Did the gentleman speak
for the committee or for himself?
Mr. Kasson—l spoke for myself; but
as a man to defend the reputation of a de
fenceless woman.
Mr. Stevens—What the gentleman stated
'were his own conclusions, but I do not state
what are the conclusions of the committee.
Mr. Kasson—l presume the gentleman
does not mean to say the result of the com
mittee is different from what I state.
Mr. Stevens—l do not propose ,to say any
thing further than that the statement is
deemed improper, as the gentleman is not
the voice of the committee.
Mr. Kasson—l made the statement as one
person engaged in the examination.
The House resumed the consideration of
the bill proposing to extend suffrage in the
District of Columbia, by striking out the
word "white" wherever it appears in the
laws and ordinances. .
Mr. Season (Iowa) replied to the speech
Mr. Kelley, heretofore made, arguing that
the language , of Mr. Madison, as quoted by
the gentleman, did not allow the teaching
that Congress Lave the right to regulate
the qualifications of voters in the States.
He repudiated this as the declaration of Mr.
Madison. Mr. Hasson caused to be read
from the Federalist the views of Mr. Madi
son, tO show that this dangerous poWer was
not conceded to the general government.
He repeated that it was never intended by
Mr. Madison and the framers of the Con
stitution that Congress should prescribe the
qualifications of voters for members of the
Legislature or of Congress. , L
Mr. Kelley (Pa.), in reply, quoted from
fH.E DAILY EV.ENINGIiU
Ahe..language of Mr. Madison to show that
should the people of any State by any means
be deprived of the right of suffrage, it was
Judged proper the evil should be remedied
by the general government, etc.
Mr. Kasson replied that was the repeti
tion of the assertion the gentleman made
the other. day, andthee would say prima facie
it was absurd to decide that the Constitution,
under;the word "manner," had the right to
prescribe the qualification of electors when
it said the qualificationsto vote for members
of the House shall be those required for
voting for members of the most numerous
branch of the State legislatures.
Mr: Kelley promised to produce the
authority to show that Mr. Madison* did
Maintain that Congress has the right to
deter Mine the question.
Mr. K.asson was glad the issue had taken
shape and was well defined. •
Mr. Kelley replied--Then you take issue
with Mr. Madison?
Mr. ,Kasson asked why the gentleman
quoted Madison unless he intended• to in
dorse that authority? •
Mr. Kelley said he was , for the Constitu
,tiOnin all its length and breadth, as under
stood , by Washington, and Madison,
and
:was for it with• all the powers, which they
,maintained were essential to its perpetuity.
He Was fdrthe Constitution,' with the power
inhering in Copgresit to regtffate suffrage so
as to give to every citizen of the i country the
'right to exercise it within the limitation of
twenty-one Years of age, and a citizen either
by birth' or naturalisation.
Mr. •Kasson in reply,. said that he was for
the Constitution as it is, and he reasserted
that Congress have no right to prescribe
who in lowa shall vote for members of the
most numerous branch of the Legislature.
;If suffrage Were made universal in some
portions of the country, there would be no
security for the permanence Of our institu
tions". Look .at countries where ,mixed
races have exercised the right of suffrage.
Look at Mexico and the South American
republics, where revolutions are as frequent
altdolit as the return of the seasons. The
Anglo-Saxon race only had shown the
power of governing itself, and to preserve
the principles of self-government after es
tablishing it.
As to the District of Columbia, there are
two classes of blacks—one the old residents
and the other the new comers. Suffrage
ought to be given to them by degress, based
on intelligence. He was in favor of the Jef
fersonian and Lincolnian principles, that
suffrage should be based on intelligence
and on the gallantry of those who fought for
their Country. He was opposed to the ex•
tension of the right of suffrage to everybody,
and he was opposed to the pending bill be
cause it did not exclude rebels, and because
it proposed to give the right to the negroes
who have recently immigrated to this Dis
trict without any restriction. He believed
the majority of this House were opposed to
universal suffrage withotit restriction in the
District of Columbia.
Mr. Johnson (Pa.) rose to a point of order,
saying the ball was very dark, especially in
the galleries, and it ought to be lit up.
The Chair said that was not a point of
order.
Mr. Price (Iowa) replied to a portion of
his colleague's (Mr. Kassou's) remarks.
about negro suffrage in lowa. That issue
was distictly made in that State, and it was
carried by sixteen thousand majority.
Mr. Kasson responded, justifying his
course in lowa, and saying he was in favor
of qualified negro suffrage, and declaring
that he had nailed his colleague's misrepre
sentations to the counter.
Mr. Price replied, saying he could bring
proof in justification of all that he had as
serted.
The colloquy was conducted with much
spirit, involving political events in lowa.
Without coming to a question on the bill
before it, the House adjourned.
