:4 :izy IF;1,4:5:) co..g `[CLOSE OP TZSTEEDAYE4 PIECOCZEDINGS,I SENATE.—The proposed. amendment to the Constithtion: was taken up. - Mr. Henderson resumed the floor in con tinuation of his remarks commenced yes terday. He contended against the taxation of negroes; if they were not to be represent ed, as an unjust principle, and endorsed the -amendment of Mr. Sumner', offered yester day, to exempt from taxation negroes not represented. The proposition of the com mittee, he said, was a proposition saying Lthat the Southern States might exclude the, negroes from the rightpf suffrage. This he' characterised as ,a compromise. He did not believe Mr.,Feritienden was really in favor of -.any such proposition, and he - would like to .see him come out from the,Comnaittee of Fif teen and speak his sentiments. ' Mr. Fessenden—My friend speaks as if I -disapproved of the action of the committee. I do not. While I recently took the liberty to - say what I should prefer, if it could be done, I did not undertake to say that, under the -circumstances, it would be wise to do so. Mr. Henderson said the negro would not receive justice from the white people of the South. They would be defrauded in every way of their civil and political rights. Un -der the proposition of the committee, in the State of Virginia 548,907 negroes would be -excluded from representation, which would be a number nearly equal to the white popu lation of the States of Kansas, Delaware, Minnesota and Florida. These States had six Representatives and ten Senators. The same was true of other Southern States. The negro population of Georgia and South Carolina amounted to 878,018, largely more than the white population of New Harap ahire, Vermont and Rhode Island, which States have six Senators and eight Repre sentatives. Add the negro population of Virginia, and you have a larger number than the white people of Maine, New Ham shire, Vermont and Rhode Island. Mr. Hend,erson said he advocated the en franchisement of the negroes because it was right, and lie believed if right it would cer lainly succeed. If the object of the Com mittee of Fifteen was to secure suffrage for the negrees,l they had not taken the right way to accomplish it. The proposition of the committee would not give the right of suffrage to negroes in the North, and in this respect It was unjust. The right to force negro . suffrage upon the South could only be derived from the right of representation to those who are taxed and this applied to the North as well as to 'the South. He hoped the proposition of the special committee would not be adopted; or if adopted, would have the amendment of Mr. Sumner ex empting from taxation all who are not re presented added to it. Mr. Henderson was commenting upon Sumner's proposed joint resolution to grant suffrage to the negroes, when Mr. Yates desired to ask a question. Congress has passed a constitutional amendment, which has been ratified, abolishing slavery in all the States; in other words, securing free dom to the freedmen. Can full freedom be conferred without conferring all his rights, natural, civil and pialitical? Can this be done ? The second clause of the :amend ment says that Congress shall have the power to - do it, to confer full freedom upon the freedmen by abolishing slavery. Congress before the adoption of this amendment could not make a citizen, a' State could not make a citizen; we the people of the United States do ordain and establish this Constitution ! The people made the Constitution, not the Constitution the people. The Dred Scott decision declared that be cause a lave could be bought and sold, be cause at that time he was not recognized P - a member of society, because he had no rights which a white man was bound t 3 respect, therefore he was not one of the sovereignty. By the amendment to the Constitution the freedman becomes whet— s subject or a sovereign? He iSemancioated into the people of the United States, and Congress having no power before to make a citizen, except to naturalize a foreigner, the States having no right whatever to make a citizen, although it may regulate, and make rules by which he may vote. The freedman, the moment he became free, became one of the people of the United States. The question - I wish to propound to the Senator from Missouri is why we should ask fora Constitutional amendment when we have the power under an amend ment just adopted to secure not in South Carolina and Georgia only, but in every State in the Union, freedom for all freed men, civil and political emancipation to every , man. Mr. Henderson asked Mr. Yates if there is slavery or involuntary servitude in Illi nois. Mr. Yates said there was not; there could not be under the amendment recently adopted. Mr. Henderson—But Illinois does not allow her negroes to votes. Mr. Yates that is what I propose to get at by a bill of Congress which shall secure po litical and civil rights to all these men. Mr. Henderson—l will ask the Senator from - Illinois another question—Whether, the women of Illinois are free or slaves? Mr. Yatesl notice, sir, that when gen tlemen are driven to the wall on this ques tion they ask why we do not let the women vote. I will answer that at the proper time. Mr. Henderson—l am only talking of a question of power. lam not disputing the proposition that the-negro ought to have the right of suffrage. lam talking about the power to do it. The Senator from Mas sachusetts proposes to do by a bill of Con gress what I propose to do by a constitu tional amendment. Mr. Henderson then took up his own proposition to amend the Constitution by prohibiting any State from withholding suffrage on account of color. Referring to a conversation between:himself and the President, in October last, he said that the Presdent told him the negro ought to be enfranchised. Mr. Clark next spoke on the proposition rbefore the Senate. Six fears .ago, he said Senator Brown, of Mississippi, then .Chairman of the Committee of the District of Columbia, brought in a bill to establish public schools in this District. It provided for the taxation of whites and blacks—for the education of whites only. He (Mr. Clark) offered an amendment, setting apart the taxes paid by the black men for the -education of black children; bnt Mr. Brown would not accept the amendment, and finding the Senate disposed to adopt it he put the bill aside. He did not believe this was exclusively a government of white mien. It was a government of all men, for all men and all classes. No citizen is so high as to escape its obli gations, nor none so low as to be beyond its protection. Our fathers did not make this .if government of white men or of blackmail, but of all men. To those who were sick of this controversy, he would say that it would end when the black man was treated with exact justice and equality with the white man. If he ever held that this was, exclu sively a white man's government he would be ashamed to say so now, after the sacri fice infide by the black men to save the ;government. He referred at some length to the achievements and sufferings of the black soldiers in the late war, to refute the assertion 'that this was a white man's government. Not only because the black man fought `-did he demand equal rights for him, but because he had a right to them as a citizen who, had assisted in the formation of the government. The black man had as much ' right to say the white man should not vote as the white man had to say the black, man ---should not vote in the District of Columbia. Mr. Clark .was opposed toexacting any -qualifications for colored suffrage which was not required for white suffrage. Peo-q .ple talked of requiring a probationary pe- riod from, negrOeS) but what probation did they exact from whitest He would rather liave"Without Prelintion theivote cif theloyal black man, who periled his life to save the government, than the vote of the rebel white man with probation. If the government wanted to arm ten thousand MR in the South, would it' arm blacks or whites? Blacks, of course. Then let the ballots go with the bullets.. Both are dangerous weEipofis in wrong bands. The man who i hasintelligence enough to know the right side to fight on, has intelligence to know the right • _ side to vote on. In Mississippi they are disarming the loyal blacks and arming the rebel militia. Mr. Wade—The President did that— Mr. Clark—l was not saying who did it. I was calling attention to the foolishness of the act. Mr. Clark advocated the enfran chisement of the blacks as a better means of protection to him than the Freedmen's Bureau, or any other device. Referring to the question of reconstruction, he would not now vote for the admission of any State, except, perhaps, Tennessee, to participation in the affairs of the Government. He did not think it would be safe, and he would never vote for the admission of Senators who had taken an active part in the rebel lion. While the Southern States were States in the Union they were also States in rebellion. Mr. Ramsey introduced a bill appro priating $20,000, to be expended under the direction of the Secretary of War, for sur veying the upper Mississippi river, between die falls of St. Anthony and the Rock Is land rapids, and ez,ooo for the survey of the Minnesota river to the mouth of the Yellow Medicine, with a view to ascertain the most feasible means of so economising the waters of those streams as to secure upon the up per Mississippi the passage of boats draw ing four feet of water, and upon the Min nesota river reliable slack water navigaticilA, which was referred to the Committee on Commerce, The Senate, at 5 P. M., adjourned. ROnt3E.—Air. Alley, from the Committee on the Post Office and Post Roads, reported a bill authorizing the Postmaster General, when the public service shall require, and until the 30th of June, 1868, to deposit post age stamps with such persons as he may select, for - Sale and circulation, under the instructions of the Postmaster General. Compensation not exceeding five per cent. is to be allowed. The persons thus selected are to give bond and security, and to be subject to all the penalties already provided by law. Mr. Alley caused to be read a letter from the Po . stmaster General, in which the latter says the object of the bill is to enable the Department to circulate and sell stamps in the States lately in rebellion. This could not now be done to any considerable ex tent, owing to the fact that there are many persons who cannot take the oath of quali fication of Postmasters; but there were per sons who could give the necessary security in the sale of stamps for the accommoda tion of the community. The arrangement would add to the revenue of the Department while the Department would be protected from loss. Mr.Wileon (Iowa) remarked it was stated that assessors and collectors have already received the endorsement of the Govern ment. He would ask the gentleman to in form the House in wnat manner such offi cers in the south had been endorsed, and whether they bad taken the prescribed oath, or taken instead one unknown to the law? This bill proposed a departure from the law for the benefit of those who have been in rebellion, and it was time such appoint ments should be stopped. They have been made without consultation with the Senate. The present was not the time to pass this or any similar bill. It was, he repeated, a de parture from the law for the benefit of those who have been against the Government, and to relieve them from the obligations which rest on those who have been true to the Government. He wished to know the character of the qualification of such officers. Mr. Alley said the bill only provided that the persons to receive and sell postage stamps should be qualified under the laws of the United States. The letter to which the gentleman from lowa alluded was read in the Senate at the time this bill was there reported, when the same objection was made, and a similar discussion arose. The bill was recommitted, and reported back, with an amendment. After a thorough in vestigation, and a discussion of the whole question, the objection was overruled, and the bill passed the Senate nnanimously. He knew it received the support of some of the most radical members of that body, not as a measure in favor of rebels, but imper atively demanded by the public interests. Mr. Stevens said that the bill ought to be printed, and not acted on in this way. Mr. Alley remarked he had no desire to suppress information, and was willing the House should have every opportunity to in vestigate the subject fully. This was a matter which had been before the Senate for weeks. Kasson said this bill was purely one of business concerning the conduct of the Post Office Department. He could see no necessity for lugging in the question of re construction in its consideration. The De partment wanted to sell all the stamps it could, and this bill proposed measures for facilitating their sale. But it seemed to him that it was interference with the present system, which costs the government nothing. The Postmaster General proposes to give a commission of five per cent. As ten million dollars worth of stamps are sold every year, the commissions would require the payment of half a million of dollars. Wokonght not to subject, the Department to, so. much loss. It should be provided in the bill that if there were not postmasters enough, the government should deposit stamps with other officers, to be sold with out extra expense. He was opposed to the bill because it would cause a serious re duction from the revenues of the Depart ment. Mr. Banks said the post office was the highest privilege which the peopie of the country could enjoy. Nothing was so im portant short of the Judiciary. This bill proposed to give to the States not on amica ble relations the privilege of the post office on credit which existed in no other part of the country. This ought not to be given to the South until the pending questions are settled satisfactorily. Mr. Alley replied that this bill did not provide that postage stamps shall be sold on credit: - It was the former bill that contained such a feature. Mr. Banks said this question ought not to be decided on a debate which took place elsewhere. There was nothing more impor tant that the principle involved in this bill. Mr. Alley, in reply to Mr. Masson, said the gentleman was incorrect in his state ment that this bill will take from the De partment a half million of dollars. The stamps cost the government a very trifling sum, and the revenue would be much in creased by the passage of this bill. A great many stamps would be disposed of which would not otherwise be sold. He was in favor a granting this privilege to Union men and all others of the South. On it de volved the resources of the government, and did no harm to any one. Mr. Boutwell wished to know why post masters were not appointed to every town and village of the South. Mr. Alley replied because the Postmaster- General is so particular that he will not allow any man to serve who does not take and subscribe to the oath. Mr. Boutwell asked whether the gentle man intended to inform the House that there were not any loyal men in the eleven Southern States. Mr. Alley replied that eight thousand postmasters ought to be appointed in the South, but the Postmaster-General had been able to procure only two thousand who were able and willing to take the oath. Mr, Finch said that not to grant these fa- THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN; PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 15,1866 clues would be a continuation of despot istoby 6 . 1 e majority to deprive the people of t he r i g ida • they would otherwise have under this govern jnent.

Mr. Trowbridge spoke in his o wn behalf. The discussion was indulged in b v Messrs. Rogers, Scofield, Cook, Davis, Sheliabarger and others, when the House voted ~'n Mr. Marshall's resolution, reported from the' mi nority of the Committee of Elections. Je d aring that Mr. Trowbridge was not enti tled to the seat, but that Mr. Baldwin was. This was rejected—yeas 30, nays 103. The House then passed the resolution of the majority of the Committee of Elections, confirming Mr. Trowbridge in the posses sion of his seat. Mr. Scofield reported a resolution from the Committee of Elections, which was passed, giving Mr: Baldwin, the contestant, 51,500 to cover his expenses. The Speaker announced the following named gentlemen as the select committee on the proposed bureau of education con templated by Garfield's bill: Messrs. Garfield (Ohio), Patterson (N. H.), Boutwell (Mass.) Randall (Pa.), Don nelly (Min.), Moulton (Ill.), Goodyear (N. Y.) Mr. Stevens asked leave to offer a reso lution that is .—e judgment of this House, the internal duty or tax on distilled spirits ought not to be reduced. Mr. Wentworth objected. Mr. Kelley presented the memorial of two hundred and thirty-four communicants of Payne Chapel African Methodist Episco pal Church, at Atlanta, Georgia, praying for an appropriation sufficient to enable them to rebuild their place of worship; which was torn down and utterly de molished by a party of Federal soldiers during the late campaign of General Sher man through Georgia. The House resumed the consideration of the Bankrupt bill. _During the debate, Mr. Stevens said this was the worst time of ail others for the passage of such a law, when the rebels would take advantage of it to free themselves from their debts.
