IXSIDEth CONGRESS.—EIRSE SESSION.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 17. 4 4
HOUSE.—This day was devoted to speech
_
making.
Mr. Ketchum (N. Y.) presented the're- -
monstrance of P. S. Wyn.koop and others,
paper and envelope manufacturers ' and
dealers and stationers of Datchess and Co
lumbia counties, New York, against the
;passage of the bill to authorize the POStMas
ltr General to sell stamped envelopes, at
e value of the stamps thereon. Referred
p
'- o the , Committee on Postofdce.. and Post
f
-- ads.
4.: Mr. Cook(EL) said that every individual
s,eitizen of each State had rights in every
Btate derived through the Constitution of
the United States, and which no State
could impair,, and hence no State action
could take such State out of the Uhion.
State governments arepolitical corporations•
and fhe people controlling the political ac
tion of a State, with those exercising the
functions of 'the State government, may
become traitors, in which case the rela
tions of the State with the Union are
broken, and there is no State government
acting within the Union under the. Consti
tution. The practical question is when the
relations between a" State and the Union
have been biokdn, how shall• such State
be restored to its former relations to and
power in the Union?
.He contended that it could not be by the
sole action of the State itself, nor by the sole
action of the President, but, it must be by
the action of Congress, citing, and comment
ing at length upon .the case of Luther vs.
Bordell, (7 Howard, 420-which he • said de
cided that the right to decide _what govern
ment was established in a State was in Con
gress, and that ,its- decision was final and
conclusive upon: every department of go
vernment, and that the President, as Com
mander-in-chief, has only military power.
The governments , set up by law were mili
tary governments, and the provisional Go
vernors military officers.
He, contended that the present govern
ments of those States were military govern
ments; that the acts of commanders, setting
aside legislative enactments in South Caro
lina, Mississippi and Virginia, show that
they are governments under the control of
military power, and the military power
itself is under the control of Congress, and
so are the military governments. Any state
rightfully under amilitary government is
rightfully under the control of Congress, or
the axioms of the fathers are reversed, and
the civil power is subordinated to the
military. When military power can safely
be withdrawn and these States remain
peaceably in the Union of their own accord,
and not of force, and Union men and free
men do not require a military force to pro
tect them, the civil government should be
recognized, but no military power could set
aside the enactments and judicial decisions
of States fully in the Union. While these
acts were necessary the States should not be
recognized.
Mr. Broomall (Pa.) offered the following:
Resolved, First, that in the language of the
proclamation of the President of May 22,
1865, " The rebellion which was waged by a
portion of the people of the. United States
against the properly constituted authorities
of the government thereof, in the most vio
l: lent and revolting form, but whose organ
ized and armed forces have now been al
most entirely overcome, has in its revolu
tionary progress deprived the people of
most of the States in which it was organized
of all civil government." '
• Second. That whenever the people of any
State are thus deprived of all civil govern
- riaent, it becomes the duty of Congress, by
appropriate legislation to enable them 'to
organize a State, and in the language of the
Constitution, to "guarantee to such a State
a republican form of government."
Mr. Lawrence (Ohio) offered the fol-
lowing:
Resolved, That it is the deliberate sense of
this ;House that the condition of the rebel
States fully justifies the President in mein
taining.the suspension of the writ of habe.as
corpus in those States.
Resolved, That it is the deliberate sense of
this House that the condition of the rebel
States fully justifies the' President;in main
taining ' military possession and control,
thereof, and that the President is entitled to
the thanks of the nation for employing the
war power for the protection of Union citi
zens and the freedmen in those States.
Mr. Lawrence then maintained that the
ordinances of secession were void, that no
State was ever out of the Union, but that all
lawful State governments were destroyedin
the rebel States; that when the rebel gov
ernments were overthrown the people were
left without any State governments; that it
is the duty of Congress to guarantee it, and
mail this is done there can be no lawful
State governments, and no representation
in Congress.
If the people without law may resume
State government, traitors will at once con
tent themselves, and the nation could im
pose no terms, nor even judge when it
- would be safe to admit representatives. If
the President alone may set up a govern
ment, without any control by Congress, it
- would be a fearful power in hands less
trustworthy than those of our respected
• Chief Magistrate. He demanded, in the
name of the Constitution and the people,
that Congress, as their agent, had a right to
guarantee government. The war power had
. a right to and did set aside rebel State go
vernment. If any other State governments
exist, it must be because either, first, that
the original government continued, or,
second, that they were suspended and are
restored; or. third, that new governments
are lawfully set up.
He proved that the original State govern
ments were abandoned, on the authority of
the Constitution, of the laws of nations, of
Madison and the Supreme Court, of Lincoln
and President Johnson. He quoted many
anthorities to support this position. The
original f2 . overn men ts could not be resumed
- without the authority of Congress, for no
State constitution provided a mode of doing
The nation has a right to live, and the in
cidental force to set up new State govern
ments, when destroyed,. is a means of con
tinning the national hfe. The President
sustained this view by calling conventions
in the rebel States to set up new govern
ments, prescribing qualifications of electors
and requiring terms, and he could not do
this if the original State governments con
tinued. Messrs. Raymond and Hubbell, in
their speeches, conceded this. The Presi
dent declared his reconstruction policy an
experiment, and would abandon it, if neces
sary.
Mr. Lawrence said, in the course 'of his
remarks, it would depend upon the people
'of the rebel States when reconstruction, can
be completed. When lciyalty returns, when
government is so far practicable as to secure
obedience to law with security for the future
'assured, then can reconstruction be cony;
plete. He would welcome representatives
with guarantees of peace and security and,
justice. .
In the work of suppressing the rebellion
and saving the Union, and giving freedoin
to a race, he was proud to follow the faithful.
Andrew. Johnson. Let each department'
perform its functions now, and follow the':
policy marked ,out by the people, and ;the:
triumphs Of peace will be as signal as the:
victories of war. The power of Congress to;
decide when representatives should be ad-`
"miffed could never be surrendered. '
It s : the right of Congress to submit to,
the, people! constitutional , amendments for
- their, approval or rejection, for thus 'cam
! terms of reconstruction and peace be made
enduring. Let' us close forever the ap
proaches of internal, feud, and_so return to
the ancient concord of national prosperity.
And when we have done.this, let us,. here in
this temple, lorever - preserve. honorable
;peace with; all the world - , and eternal bro
therhood with each other.. ; .;,
Mr. Cullom (Ill.) said the gentleman from
Kentucky (Mr. Harding) had, on a former
occasion, remarked that it was time therif.
should be a little posting of the books:
While making thik, declaration ? the gentle
man seemed willing to pass silently over,,
- the record of .himself and party. 'His zeal '
Watt only eqUalled by his bitterness against
the:Union party, which he his party had
opposed for-the last five years. The union
party:were willing at all times, when called
upon to exhibit the balance sheet, so that
the loyal people of the country may sea
how the matter stands.
He then proceeded to look at the debtor
side. The gentleman's party had long been
in power, and when Mr. Lincoln succeeded
to the Presidency he found the country di
vided and_ a Southern confederacy existing.
When the - Union party took possession of
the government, treason, avowed and secret,
infested all high places, and scattered its
deadly poison among the people until Union
and liberty had almost perished.
It was then that we heard all around us
the cry, that to attepip“o relieve the starv
ing garrison at Fort Sumter would be use
less, and would only excite the Southern
heart.. In the Legislature, in the White
House—almost everywhere, it was urged
by the Democratic party that it was uncon
stitutional to wage war, to put down the
rebellion, because President. Buchanan had
said that States could not be coerced; mean
while the people of the South, In every
capacity in which they lived, moved and
had their being, were organizing first to
perate against the national government.
!The people saw the hollowness and rotten
ness of these threats; and the Union party
deelared that they could not permit treason
and secession to triumph, and that all at
tempts to overthrow the government should
tie visited with all its power. The Union
party, with their Executive, declared that
the country could not and should not be
divided. The war began,,
and he needed
not to say what has been the result. Dis
union, Which was organized in South Caro
lina in 1831 'and 1832, though put down by
the heroic Jackaon, was nurtured by Pierce
and Buchanan and the Democratic party.
The secessionists of 1861 sought to divide
the country and erect on a part of the ruins
a new confederacy, having for its corner
, stone the divine institution of slavery. In
reviewing the acts of the Union party, he
said that peace has been conquered, slavery
forever prohibited, and other acts of public
benefit and private justice performed; and
he mentioned the repeated instances in
which the Democratic party had opposed
all the measures called for by the public
safety and benefit.
Mr. Cullom said he was willing to rest
the whole matter in the hands of the loyal
people to decide. They would be slow to
believe that the Union party was false and
hypocritical in the shaping of its policy and
in announcing the declaration of its princi
ples. The nation has been vindicated and
the problem solved. Nullification and se
cession have been trampled in the dust, and
Congress was now charged with greater re
sponsibilities than ever before since the
formation of the government. The Demo
cratic party was a negative party rather
than of affirmative principles, and,.in ad
dition to their opposition to other beneficent
measures, they say there is no power under
the Constitution to pass the Freedmen's Bu
reau bill.
Mr. Cullom took it for granted the Presi
dent would sign it. He spoke in relation to
the question of reconstruction. alleging that
the. Congress of the United Stites has full
power to recognize the rebellions States.
and to admit them to representation, when,
in the judgment of the national government,
through its Congress, it shall be deemed safe
so to do, looking to the loyalty of the people
and the guarantees which are demanded to
secure to all that equal and exact justice
which is so imperiously demanded. It was
not pleasant for him to look upon the dark
side of. the picture, and recount the many
acts of treason and fiendish barbarity which
bad characterized the rebellious people of
the last four years, but he could not forget
the dreadful struggle through which we had
passed, and the winter quarters of a million
of brave men who had been slain in the
terrible contest for national existence. He
could not forget that dreadful night in April
last, when that great man, so fitly styled
the saviour of his country, was stricken
down as with the bloody dagger of a brute;
and as we proceed in the discharge of our
responsible duties, let us stand by that old
maxim, "Let justice be done, through the
heavens fall."
The House then adjourned.
The Rio Grande.
NEW ORLEA.Ns, Feb. 17.—The Times'

Mr. H. J. F. Burgleter, of Hamburg,
book-keeper of the firm of De Roger Attlen
ez Co., of Matamoras, was murdered below

travellers. There are no French troops in
Monterey, they having left because of the
jealousy of the Mexican Imperial troops.

Heavy Robbery in St. Lonis.
ST. Louis, Feb. 17.—A messenger of the
,United States Express Company, while de
livering a package in the upper part of Lv
building on Third street, about ton o'clock
to-day, was - robbed of $40,000, nearly all the:
contents of his satchel. From the fact that
a package, which the messenger went to.
deliver, and which was left by the robbers,
contained counterfeit money, and other sus
.picious circumstances, it was evident that
the robbery was previously planned.
