1116. WeihiriiiiiioN, Feb, 3,1866.
Feb. o, .
Sattagn.—The Senate is not in session to.
OUBB.-Mr. SPitilding introduced a bill,
'which was 'referred to the Cominittee on
Commerce, providing-for the repair and im-
Trovement of the harbors of Cleveland. and
_Fairport, onLake Erie. .
Mr. ,Rogers .T.) presented a petition
from - soldiers of Paterson,N. J.; for the pas
sage of a law of Congress giving soldiers
who enlisted or volunteered before July,
1863,.bounties equal to those given to such
as voltinteered after that time.
The bill reported by Mr. Stevens, from
the Committee. on Appropriationa, making
appropriations for the legislative, executive,
and judicial departments of the government
.for the year ending June 30, 1867, was made
the special order for Monday.
The House passed a bill providing that'
Sersons in the naval service of the United
tates who have lost one foot and one hand
in the line of their duty, shall be allowed the
same pension as is allowed by law to per
sons in the military service who have suf
fered similar dosses. And also - that the
provisions of section 5 of the pension 'law of
-July 4, 1864, shall apply to' persona in the
naval service. The word "military" in the
former law was construed not to include
persons in the naval service. The design of
this is to equalize the-peradon law.
The House then ivent - mto Committee. of
the Whole on the State of the Union, Mr.
Washburn (Ill.) in the chair, and proceeded
to the consideration of the Senate bill to en
large the powers of the Freedmen's Bureau.
Mr. Marshall (Ill.) said it was difficult
to conceive a more important measure than
that nowliending. Its professed object was
to look after and take care of a race = Which -I
hiss been recently released from bondage
and this involved the expenditure of-untold
millions of dollars. He denied that the
Federal governMent can'become the com•
mon almoner of the people ' and also denied
that Congress could. put their hands into
the pockets of the poor and industrious la
borers and take apart of their hard earn
ings to distribute the money among those
who may need it; and he denied that the
Federal government was established for
any such purpose, and further that there
-was no authority or warrant in the Consti
tution for such an extraordinary measure.
This House had become a revolutionary
tribunal, as lawless as that of the Jacobins
-of France, which brought the unfortunate
LonislXVl. to the block, and was animated
by similar purposes. For the expression of
generous sentiments, the gentleman from
New York (Mr. Raymond) was to be im
molated and dragged down, and such
epithets hurled at him as were never before
beard in a deliberative assembly. A willing
and abject majority were here to record the
-edicts of a dictatorship, which had been
-established over every department of the
government.
He stated at length his objections to the
bill. There was no right or authority for
the War Department establishing a system
of government apart from that which should
be applicable to the entire people alike.
By what warrant in the Constitution could
the officers of the Bureau act as judges, sus
tained by the military power, and go into
the States, enter the markets, and buy up
.land for the purpose of settling thereon
freednien, and protecting and maintaining
-them? He supposed until they became a
self-sustaining institution the bill should
be called an act to destroy the Constitution
and to subject the people to military power
and domination.
Mr. Hubbard (Ct.) said it was impossible
for abill to be framed which in the outset
would be satisfactory to every one. It was
to be expected that gentlemen on the other
sidiwould be opposed to all legislation on
the 'subject, and that they would indulge
in very sharp criticism; but he considered
the bill as perfect as they could now get it.
The act would always be under the,
„control
of Congress, and subject to amendment or
repeal. Our object was to give employ
ment to the emancipated, and to seonre the
advantages of labor to those men who we're
now wandering over the country homeless
and friendless;
. and another was to giye
them the opportunity of learning to read and
to protect themselves in a reasonable way
in their civil rights. They ought not to be
left to perish - by the wayside when the
country needs their labor. It was not their
, trime or fault that they are poor, for they
have for centuries been robbed of their earn
ings. ; In, . reply to Mr. Marshall, he said
there was authority in the Constitution for
the passage of this bill, for Congress was
given power to pass all proper laws to carry
out the provisions of the 'Constitution which
include the public welfare.
Mr. Moulton (111.),understood that the ob
iect of the - bill was to protect four nu'llions
of men, whose rights have been denied in
the Southern States, and who are dependent
to some extent upon the aid of this govern
ment. His colleague (Mr. Marshall) had
argued against this bill as a violation of the
Constitution, but the House had continually
heard such expressions for the last four
years • from that side. They were uttered
- whenever any measures were to be passed
here for the benefit of the country and the
-defence of our rights. If gentlemen on the
other side are simply desirous of keeping
the negroes from the tree States, they ought
to join the majorily in this House• in the
passage 'of this bill, for when the colored
men are fully and completely protected_ in
their rights, they will' never visit the North,
and every Northern State would be de
pleted of them. They should be protected
.from the damnable violence of the traitors
in the Southern States. ,
Mr. Kelley (Pa.) said that a distinguished
General of Alabama had called upon him
-and shown him a newspaper containing the
proceedings of a court sentencing black men
and women to death for larceny, or , for im
prisonaent 'for ninety-nine years - for' the
-offence. The editor of the paper justified
the verdict, saying that the plantation, not
the city, was the proper place for negroes.
Mr. Rousseau asked the name of the dis
tinguished gentleman.
Mr.-Kelley . replied, General Spencer, who
-as colonel, lamed the first regiment of-loyal
_Alabamians.
Mr. Rousseau said this was the first time
Zia had heard of General Spencer.
Mr. Kelley replied that was quite possi
ble and yet General Spencer might _ be a
distinguished t general, for all the intelli
gence of the world does not reach the• cen
tral part of Kentucky.
Mr, Rousseau said. he was in northern
Alabama and middle Tennesse for two
..'ears, and he would not say the general
- was not there; but denied thit Spencer was
.a distinguished general or anything else.
Mr. - Kelley remarked he would take the
word of Tecumseh Sherman as against
that of the gentleman from Kentucky. He
knew that Spencer served with General
:Sherman, and thought he was on his staff. '
He repeated, they , hung black Men and
- women in Alabama, or imprisioned , them
ninety nine years for larceny, but no such
- punishment was meted to white rebels who
-steal black men's horses. ,
Mr. Moulton resumed hls remarks in °
- favor of the bill. No republican govern
ment can or ought to exist while four
millions of people are deprived of their
Mr. Ritter (Ky.) said the bill proposed to
.establish a government within . a govern.:
went: It was not for the benefit of all, but
.only for apart of the people. - It was not
for the whites, but for the blacks. The
enormous amount of money required was
to be paid by white people. Why continue
this expensive establishment to force , on a
hard-worked; honestpeople, from twelve
millions to perhaps a hundred or two hun
dred and• fifty millions of dollars, and. all
this for the reason that slavery has been
abolished? He asked why the unlimited
power contained in this bill should be ex
lended to everyState,unless it was to increase
1111iNI
poßtical ., power? ,•This ,Imachine opened a
vast field.for the retention,' of: military men
ire i time of peace r and it was made absolutely,
necessary to 'retain a large' army, if Tor no
other purpose than simply to protect thst
agents 'and. employes.connected with:the'
Bureat: According fito -- ii statement of Gen:'
Howard, 799 officers Were connected with it.
Ifithis number , was considered necessary
when the operations of the Bureau were
Confined to the South. how much greater
would it be when its Machinery was ex
tended to all the States. Whether it was
the design of the bill or not, the effect would
be, immense colonies of negroes who would
ultimately 'drive out the whiteipeople from
five of the States and fill their places with
the black race. No more effectual measure
could be introduced for that purpose. It
could not be expected that the two races
could thus live together' contentedly, and
the whites would be compelled to seek other
homes.
Mr. Kelley, in explanation of what he
had said at aprevious ,stagebf the proceed
ings, read an extract from the Tuscaloosa
00servei, of December last, showing that a
number of freedmen and freedwomen were
convicted and sent to the penitentiary for
various terms for ler' cenyi wldle a man who
stole a horse was sentenced to be hanged.
The editor adding—" Unless the negroes re
formed there would be necessity for a peni
,tentiary. in every bounty; that' the - negro
ought tobekept from congregating in towns,
the true place for him being the plantation.
Separated from the plantation they cannot
obtain a subsistence, and hence it became
necessary for them to steal to satisfy the
wants of nature."
itir.Rowaseau (Ky.) said he did not justify
any wrongs, but, rose to discuss the bill
wider consideration. - He was opposed to it,
not from personal spirit, but because if this
oppressive measure should be passed it
would lead to the injury of those which it
was elaitned to . protect. He was not a Re
publican'tbut, had. acted, with the Union
party, and he was sorry to say the Union
and the Republican partieswere not always
the same. Duriag the last four years he
had voted with -the Republican party to
suppresi the rebellion, and had given it a
hearty and honest support. The object of
the war was at the outset declared to be to
suppress the rebellion. defend the Constitu
tion, and to restore all 'the States to the dig
nity and rights which they enjoyed before
the contest began.
He believed that the Republican party
would save the Union because they ex
pressed the will of the people. There were
now no armed rebels to make war, and
should they, with such standing armies as
they could always obtain, talk about war
with unarmed men and women of the
South? This was an absolute disgrace, not
only in his judgment, but in that of those
who would suffer by it. Such extraordi
nary powers had never before been con
ferred. Take care, he said, of the negro,
and he would stand by those who would
dd so; but do not place such power in the
hands of bad men who would be sent to the
Southern States. The whole thing was
without warrant, and wiped away the con
stitution and laws of Kentucky. He showed
what difficulties would rise from the opera
tions of this bills, producing conflicts be
tween whites and blacks; and then remark
ed that there was a Freedmen's Bureau in
Alabama, but it could not prevent the
hanging to which the gentleman from Penn
sylvania (Mr. Kelley) referred. So far as
he understood the Freedmen's Bureau :in
Kentucky, it, by its indiscretion, harassed
loyal men. Let us do right ourselves fast,
before we demand it from others. There
was no reason whatever for the illegal and
unconstitutional legislation proposed, after
all the sacrifices of Union men to put down
the war.
They had been told by Messrs. Stevens
and Shellabarger, and ether extreme men,
that the Southern States are out of the
:Union, and that the Constitution must be
amended to keep the Republican party in
power. With him, Northern and Southern
secessionists are the same. He held the
position from which he would not be driven,
that every citizen of the United States holds
_paramount allegiance to the general gov
ernment, and that such allegiance, when
given, entitled the parties to all the protec
tion which could be afforded. The war
was, he repeated, for the Union, and this
purpose was declared by Congress directly
after the battle of Bull Run. But now they
-were gravely told that the Southern States
were out of the Union. He referred to the
.refusal of the House to admit the members
elect from Arkansas even to the privileges of
the floor, and to the members from Tennes
see being denied admission to their seats.
These men were wrnestand efficient in
support of the Union cause, and some of
them rendered efficient service in the field.
Mr. Delano (Ohio) made an explanation,
called forth by a remark of Mr. Rousseau,
and said he repudiated as utterly ground
less the assertion that the States are dead.
They live, and, by the blessing of God they
will live, as long as the United States shall
live, as a part and parcel of our common
country. He was ready to admit the mem
bers from Arkansas and Tennessee to the.
floor, and it was due to the country that thi.
be done speedily. [Applause.]
Mr. Rousseau concluded his remarks, de
nying that the Sonthern States are out of the
Union. The gentleman from Pennsylvania
(Mr. Stevens) reminded him of a doctor he
had heard of. He meant no offence to the
gentleman by saying the doctor was a
quack doctor by comparing him with the
gentleman. The doctor visited a man who
had the pleurisy, and left with him a pre-
F.Cription of tea and toast. But after the
doctor left, the sick man became so hungry
that he importuned his wife for roast shoat.
When the doctor paid his next visit he in
quired into the condition of his patient.
"He is about well," was the answer, "hav
ing recovered on roast shoat." So the doe
tor took out his book and wrote in—" Roast
shoat good for pleurisy."' [Laughter.] The
doctor having been called on to prescribe
for another man sick with pleurisy, pre
scribed roast shoat. The doctor went away
and the rnanunfortunately died. When the
doctor paid his next visit he inquired how
his patient was. The wife said, "He would
not cease troubling me for roast shoat, and
it killed him." [Laughter.] The doctor
then wrote in his book, "Roast shoat good,
for pleurisy sometimes." [Renewed laugh
ter.] Secession was bad at the beginning
of the war t but we were now told it was a
good thin . The very ground that - Jeff.
Davis ocen ied, that the States could secede,
was now can pied by gentlemen on this
floor. But, said Mr. Rousseau, we will ap
peal to the people to come back to the old
platform of the Union, Constitution, and
enforcement of the laws. [Applause.]
The House took a recess till half-past
seven o'clock.
Evening Session.—Mr. Shanklin (Ky.) op
posed the bill, and in reply to those who
had defended it, said there was, as a general
thing, no hbstility on the part of the former
master toward those who had been eman
cipated. On-the contrary, there was a feel
ing of kindness Unknown to the people of
the North. The hostility, if any, was toward
the fanatical abolitionists, who came into
the Southern country, and by protases,
persuasions, and nusrepresentations, de
moralized:the negro by bringing the negro
intothe contest.-The arm of therebel govern
'meat was strengthened, and that of our, own
7eakened, and it was the means of prolong
ing the' war, besides the expenditure .of
thousands of lives and millions of money,
and the desolation of a large portion' of the
COUlltry. But for this, the war would have
been of shorter continuance.. ,While he had
always detested the acts of 'secession as a
political heresy, he , was compelled obi° to
'denounce -as "a' political heresy the doctrine
of abolition. One was as damnable as the
other.
Mr. Phelps (Md.) said he was one of those
who believe that in the consideration of

questions of this character they were not to

tet• how remote or circuitous, of falling into

! He stated his objections to the bill. It
cohtninecl agraritut principles, which may be
!referred to, as a justification hereafter for
establishing a bureau for the support of pan-„
pers. He was opposed to. - so much money
being placed'in -- the hands of agents to be
used if other measures should be introduced,
giving the freedmen the right of suffrage,
for corruption in the buying of votes. There
was, however, a redeeming feature in the
bill, which almost tempted him to give to it
his support, that he must recognize these
people as in a state of pupilage.
Mr. Chanler (N. Y.) said that such a
pi,ogramme, under the plea and subterfuge
, of,philatithropy, called upon him riot only
to speak on behalf of the North, but of the
whole country, and to condemn the spirit
with which this bill was brought forward,
and the zeal with which it.was pressed. The
teaching which,cama.from the lips of those
who advocate !this- measure' devilish
sophistry, and belongs rather to the Phari
sees, who unloosed their garments to scourge
the !Saviour. The bill made the President
the distributtor of Oast-off clothing which
belonged to sheddy-contractors, was for
the benefit - of their - radical frienois in. New
England`who deal,' in merchandise. - The
design seemed to be to continue the system
of trading which was commenced in time
of-war. He gave, 'at length, his reason for
opposing the bill, and argued that it would
seriously interfere with emigration to the
South., •
At Si o'elock the House adjourned.
The so7espondent of the Richmond (Va.)
Reptitais, in describing the scene in the
House of Representatives at Washington on
the 31st, says:
Thad. Stevens arose in his place and re
ported batik from the Committee on Recon
struction the constitutional amendment, and
without change, except that it makes no
mention of direct taxes, and with this change
only, it reads exactly as I sent it yesterday.
Stevens demanded the previous question.
A dozen members sprang.to their feet, pro
posing this, that and the other, but Stevens
was inexorable, and the demand for the pre
vious question, on a count of the whole
House, was seconded by a vote of 73 to 49.
At this stage, having the House entirely in
his grasp, Stevens yielded the floor to
Schenck, of Ohio, to again offer his amend
ment proposing to base representation on
suffrage, and making a five minutes' speech
in its behalf, left it to its fate. Next, Stevens
gave way five minutes to Benjamin, of Mis
souri, who took his seat again in less than
that time, after having utterly demolished
the Schenck proposition.
Thenahe great • Radical arose in his place
to speak the last words of the debate. Thad
dens Stevens is one who has lived out the
alloted years of man, and yet he bears no
signs of age upon him. His head, it is true,
is covered with a light brown wig, and so
far, he is deceptive, but his face is unfur
rowed; his carriage erect; his step firm and
_elastic; his voice strong and unbroken,
and
all these are realities. His walk, it is true,
is halting, but this is caused by the mal
formation of one of his feet, 1111di8 in nowise
the result of age. Aside from this one de
fect, he is a thoroughly well-formed,phyaloal
man, and his face, chiseled as it were on the
grandest of antique models, stamps him at
onee the intellectual giant that he is.
Thaddeus Stevens is not a gracefal
speaker, but there is none more forcible
than he. Lacking in logic, but in solid
strength of argument there is no man living
who excels him in the power of ridicule and
invective. With these, his cheaen weapons,
he is terrible. With a dozens words, cram
med to the throat with sarcastic bitterness,
he demolishes the most carefully and deftly
prepared of arguments; and with a well
timed sneer, he overthrows the most trucu
lent of his opponents. His power of sneer
ing invective is most fearful and most
wonderful, and be used it liberally to-day.
In fact, be regards no man, no station, no
time, no place; whoever falls ender , his
wrath feels surely the keen edge of his
weapon.
When he began this morning the House
gathered around him as though an oracle
were about to declare an irreversible edict.
The Dentocrata came from their distant side
and stood patiently while he scourged,
lashed, lacerated, tore them piece -meal.
The Republicans, who had seats near him,
kept them tenaciously; and those who were
far off shared the standing room of the aisles
with the Dembcrats. During all the time
be spoke a perfect stillness pervaded the
entire House—floor and galleries. The
Speaker's post was, for the time, a sinecure,
andgenial Colfax leaned eagerly forward in
his chair anxious as the rest to hear. Radi
cal as he is, vindictive as he is, remorseless
as he is, he is an intellectual prodigy, and
the House, "without distinction of race or
color," paid hira this homage.
Stevens began by a bitter tirade against
the President for sending to the country the
views he entertains upon the question of
constitutional amendment, which he did
the other day in the report of the Associated
Press. Stevens characterized it as an at
tempt to usurp legislative functions, which
done in the most lawless days of English
history would have cost the British King,
attempting it, his head—"but,'! said Ste
vens, "we are tolerant of usurpation."
Again and again, during his speech, did he
refer to this matter, each time denouncing
•be President in the most bitter terms. The
speaker spoke strongly in favor of the
amendment, said he had given up
his own chosen methods of amend
went for the sake of expediency, and
called on the membersto do the same. He
declared that Congress never did have, and
never would have, the power to, regulhte
the suffrage in the States, and it was idle to
talk about it. He said this amendment
could be carried.through the requisite num
ber of States, and he did not believe any
other could. He declared; roundly his pur- ,
pose, if he could, to keep the Southern
States out of participation in the govern
i
, ment for four or aye year , and meantime
to educate the freedmen d make them fit
for voters, which,he admi ed, they were, not
now. He avowed his ob jec t to be to so out
clown the representation ef the Southern
States that if they sent secessionists to rep
resent them, they would be powerless for
evil even in conjunction with the Copper
heads who represent the Five Points and
other dark places, and, in ' this edhnection,
ilreferred bitingly to the days when pistols
d knives were drawn upon him in the
House while delivering just such a speech
a he made to-day. He sc urged Raymond
his most terrible style kir the closing sen-'
tenms of his speech on Monday, and having . ,
shown herein . more of unrelenting, unfor
giving malice against , the late rebels than it
was . possible to conceive that any one human
breast could contain,-, Stevens resumed his
seat. , Then the voting began, and it was
soon apparent that the greatest triumph of
the great Radical was on the eve of sextem
plishment. The : Schenck 'amendment was
soon buried by a,vote of • thirtY-nine .for to
onehundred and "thirty_ against, and thefti I
the yeas and nays were called on theamends.
ment - from the .Reconstruction Committee
and . the result -was yeas; one hundred and
twenty; nevi; forty-sia. Thus, one hundred
and sixtpsix members voted, and it having
two-thirds of those who voted, the Speaker
~ .
declared it passed.
