BXXLIEth Vongress—]Hrsit Session.
ICLOSE OF SATURDAY'S PROCEEDINGS.]
HousE.—Mr. Loan (Mo.) addressed the
House. He argued that the union of the
States and the existence of the nation were
two distinct things. The union of the States
might be destroyed• without affecting the'
existence of the nation. When the eleven
Southern States entered into rebellion and
inaugurated the cruel war, the union of the
States was de facto dissolved, just' as much
as if the rebels had proved victorious, and
had had their independence acknowledged.
They had held no political position since
their revolt except that of rebellious sub
jects. He contended that they should not
be restored to their former condition in the
Union until the political power in those
States was confined exclusively in the
bands of loyal citizens; till equal rights and
privileges were extended to all their inhabi
tants- until their people gave evidence of
hatred to rebellion and love to the republic;
• :until rebel sentiments rebel generals, rebel
bangers and rebel..debts were repudiated,
and until the love of justice, law and order
'was so firmly established in the minds of
the people as to give unquestionable evi
dence of enduring peace; then, but not bes
' fore, would he vote to readmit them into the
Union.
Mr. Thornton (IILJ next addresser the
House. The great question to be settled
was, in one view, a question of union or
disunion; and, in another view, a question
of a centralized despotism or rational
'government with delegated powers. -'
If the States that attempted to 'se
cede were out of the Union either in fact or
in law, then the war had failed in its avowed
object. If they were not out of the Union,
then, the power of the general government
being re-established, they were entitled to
be represented in Congress.
If a State could be reduced to a territory
-as a punishment for rebellion, where was
`, the limitation. As well might a refractory
State be reduced to a territorial condition
for a slighter offence if the power existed.
Any act of legislation declaring States to be
territories would violate the Constitution.
Such act would make the government as
• odious and destructive of the liberties of the
people as if secession had been successful.
The States of the Union must stand together
or the Union would perish and become "a
schoolboy's tale, the wonder of an hour."
If the ties which bound the States together
were severed, the Union would become a
ghastly corpse. "For soul is wanting-there."
The proper habitation of the States was in
the Union: The States and the Union co
existed. Congress could not drive them out
nor close the doors against them unless it
blotted out the brightest page in the history
of man - and darkened the light of hope now
dawning on the country. They had a right
through their representatives in Congress to
say, in the language of Clay: "I am within
the Union and am for staying within the
Union, and I defy any portion of the don
' federaey to expel me or drive me out of
the Union." If the rebellion had been suc
cessful
the seceded States would not now
form a part of the Union; but they did not
succeed. They had been kept in the Union,
and therefore they had not been out either
in fact or in law.
Mr. Thornton cited the acts of the Execu
• live and of Congress in support of his posi
tion that the rebel States were not out of the
Union for any purpose whatever. A .
denial of representatii to them was an
attack upon the opinions of President Lin
coln, stultified the action of the Republican
party, and involved it in a labyyinth of in
• consistency from which there is no escape
bnt in base dishonor. He believed that the
policy of the President would be sustained
by the people of the country, who desired
peace and Union with equality of rights to
all the States, and with degradation to none.
Kuykendall (Ill,) took the floor and
made a constitutional argument on the re
lations between the States and the general
government, contending for the principle.
of State sovereignty over all its internal
affairs, and that the reserved rights of the
States cannot be infringed without a viola
tion of the Corstitution. are protested
• against Congressblotting out by legislation
eleven stars from the nation's emblem—a
thing which was tried for four years by
hundreds of thousands of armed men in
rebellion, and which they failed to accom
plish.
He would treat the States with as much
kindness as their conductwould show them
entitled to. He would keep a sufficient
military force in each of the southern States
to secure a prompt and faithful execution
of the Constitution and laws of the United
States. He would guarantee such protec
tion to the freedmen as would insure them
against harm ariii violence, and give them
full protection in all their rights. He would
admit the loyal delegates from Tennessee,.
that State having been exempted by Presi
dent Lincoln from his emancipation pro
clamation, as being a loyal State. In this,
be supposed, he differed with the great
leader of the radicals in this goose (As.
Stevens) and his followers, but he also dif
fered with this copperhead persuasion in
this House,- which would repeal the test
, Oath and admit any representatives who
might be elected from the Southern States,
whether loyal men or rebels. He was not
in favor of repealing the test oath.
Mr. Marshall (Ind.) interrupting, said he
'Would nOtiruestion the good taste of his
colleague in applying the stale epithet of
, "copperhead" to members of this House,
'but for himself he disavowed any intention
of admitting as representatives from the
' South men who had taken prominent parts
in the rebellion.
Mr. Kuykendall said that when he spoke
'of the copperhead persuasion be did not
s know that the phrase would strike any
member from - his State.
Mr. Marshall said it was well known to
what gentlemen the disunion members on
that side (the Republican side) applied the
epithet. They applied it to men around
whom were clustering all the hopes of the
people who desiretrthe immediate restora
tion of the Union:
Mr.' Kuykendall inquired whether his col
league would vote to repeal the test oath?
Mr. Marshall replied that he was inclined
''ss to think it unconstitutional and ought to be
repealed, but he did not know whether he
would be in favor of repealing all test oaths
of the kind at this time. He thought the
. time would soon come when it would be
stricken from the statute book, so that if
such men as Alexander H. Stephens, and
others who had been complicated with the
• rebellion, but were now true to the Consti
tution, were elected, they might be admit
;.. ted to seats.
•
Mr. Rogers (N. J.) asked whether, if
• Alexander H. Stephens came here as a re
presentative, he (Mr. Marshall) would vote
for his admission?
Mr. Marshall replied that he would, if he
were satisfied that Stephens was now true
to the Union. He took occasion to refer
now to the question of Democratic leader
sl ship. Many members on the disunion side
.• ;;of the House had been anxious, he did
s . .not know for what purpose, to denominate
the 'gentleman from New Jersey (Rogers)
r t 28-the Democratic leader in the House. If
4 - , by that was meant that he had made more
speeches, and longer speechee. and abler
speeches , than any other members, he was
_willing to accord all that. He recognized
thegentleman's great ability and eloquencte
. -1
but in many of his extreme views he (Kr: -
M a rshall) did not coincide, and he as not
•,, willing to admit that he (Rogers) was the
representative of the principles of the Demo
cratic side of the House.'
• - Mr. Rogers said he knew his views were
sometimes in advance =of those of some
irkeixitm Ctill :on , luS own side, but he had al=
!ways -stood upon principle, regardless of
politiCal conse nences himself.' He was
Aaerd say - would cast nis
„ .
vote with as much pleasure as he had ever
cast any vote for the repeal of that oath, be
cause he balieved it unconstitutional. Pre
sident Johnson himself, in the last colloquy
he had with a gentleman from New York,
had expressl3r stated that he ...believed the
test oath ought to be repealed., l t
Mr. Roykepdall declined to take the gen
tleman from 'New Jersey as authority for
what President Johnson said, and wanted
to know whether he (Rogers) spoke for
his entire party.
Mr.Rogers—No, sir. I speak for myself,
not for the Democratic party. Ido not in
tend or profess to control anybody. There
is nobody so foolish on this side of the
House as to be in any manner controlled
by me, and it is a serious and great insult
to undertake to charge that. They are men
of sense. of judgment, bf discretion, of Un
derstanding, and can pursue their course
according to their own •judgment. They
have the same obligations and rights as I
have, and have quite as much, if not more
sense.
Mr. Kuykendall—We all believe that.
[Laughter.] Confirming his speech, and
discussing the destiny of the freedmen, he
said he was in favor of making a treaty
with the republic of Mexico, and arrang
ing to colonize the American citizens of Af
rican descent in the rich valleys of Mexico,
with all the rights of Mexican citizens. He
would enforce the Monroe doctrine drive
Maximilian out of Mexico, so as to re
establish a republican form of government,
secure lands to the negroes, and give them
a fair start in the world.
Mr. Finck (Ohio) next addressed the
House. He commenced his speech by de
nouncing the test oath, arguing that if Con
gress had the power to impose that oath, it
had the power to change the qualifications
prescribed by the Constitution for Senators
and Representatives, and could effectually
set aside the organic law of the country,and
defy the will of the people. The right to
hold a State in the House depended not so
much upon the determination of the House
as it did on the qualified electors of the dis-
Jtfict, and on the qualifications prescribed
in the Constitution. Test oaths were never
favored in a free country. They were incon
sistent with the true spirit of a free and in
dependent people.
The act in.posing this oath was one of
those measures which grew out of the war,
and it ought to pass away with the war. The
power of the Union had triumphed, and ite
future security depended not upon test oaths
or constitutional amendments, but on the
great fact of the complete and utter defeat
of the late rebellion. The war bad settled
more firmly than constitutional amend
merits and test-oaths piled mountain-high
the principle that no State has a right, under
the Constitution, to withdraw - from the
Union. That decision would not be, and
could not be, reversed.
He wanted the people of the South to
come back, not degraded, but in their full
manhood—the equal of people in every
other - section of the country. They and
their children had to live with us and our
children for generations to come, and it was
better that they should live together on
terms of equality and friendship. They had
acted on a mistaken notion in regard to the
right of secession, which he had always re
garded as a heresy; but in judging of them
the House should recollect bow that very
heresy was strengthened by the enuncia
tions of leading men at the North. In this
connection he quoted a speech made by
Senator Wade, in which he said that his
Marty adopted the basis of the Declaration
of Independence, which declared that any
people have the right to recur to the funda
mental law, and, if need be,
to destroy the
government under which they live, and
erect on its ruins another more conducive
to its welfare; that the people of the South
have that right, and that he (Mr. Wade)
would not blame them for exercising it
whenever they thought the contingency clad
come. Mr. Finck also quoted articles from
the New York Tribune of the same general
tenor, and from speeches of a former Repre
sentative from Ohio (Mr. Stanton), made in
the House.
In regard to holding Southern men to a
responsibility for having helped to sustain
the Confederate government, he held that
allegiance and protection were reciprocal
obligations, and that no government had
the right, after having allowed its power to
be usurped, to turn round and punish the
unfortunate people whom they had failed ti
protect against that usurped power. To do
so would be monstrous,and against the sim
plest dictates of common sense and common
honor. That principle had been recognized
and applied in this country, and has existed
in Great Britain for generations. roe peo
ple of the South have now returned to toeit
allegiance, and it seemed to him the highes'
duty of statesmen to unite in the solemn and
sacred purpose of restoring hearty son
fraternal relations between the sections,
was the part of true wisdom to treat thew
with that kindness and clemency which
would win their affection. This was not the
hour for revenge and hate, but for clemency
and forgiveness. These people had d ,ne
wrong, but we should show them that we
can be magnanimous iu council as well as
brave in war; and we should say to them,
"We welcome you back. Let us forget the
past. Prove by your fidelity to the C Insti
tution that you know ,how to be faithful to
it, as you know how to be brave and heroic
in a mistaken and misguided cause " The
true principles of Christian charity would
be a safer tie than the principles of hate and
revenge.
Mr. Orth (Ind.) obtained the floor, and the
House adjourned.

THE DAILY EVENING - BULLETIN PHILADELPHIA; MONDAY, MARCH 5. 1866.
Coin Restored to Richmond Banks.
- At the time of the evacuation of Richmond
the banking establishments of that city con
tinued to send away the amount of coin be
longing to the different institutions to a
point further South, tor the purpose of se ;
curing it. The amount originally reached
the sum of $250,000, of which $150,000 were
lost by plunder, ; and the remainder placed
on deposit at ashington, Ga., in charge of
a,special agent of the Richmond banks,who,
owing to the unsettled condition of affairs,
Was unable to get back to Richmond, and
was, therefore, compelled to remain there
some time. While this coin was at Wash
ington; Ga., claim was made to it by Gene
ral Weld, of the Freedmen's Bureau, on the
ground that it was captured property, and
an investigation of the case by General
Winslow resulted in giving the right of pos
session to the agent of the banks. After
wards, about the 20th of April last, an order
from the President, through the Secretary
of War, was received by General Steedman,
then commanding the department, to hand
over the captured coin on deposit to a Trea
sury agent. This was done, and the coin
sent to this city, where it was placed on spe
cial deposit with the Treasurer of the United
States.
Claim is now made on behalf of the Rich
mond banks for the restoration of this
money, and it is alleged that the order of the
President was made without full informa
tion of the facts of the case.
After a full and careful examination by
the Treaimry Department, the matter has
been referred to the President, whO has or
dered that the coin be restored, provided the
identity between the amount now on deposit
in the Treasury and that claimed by the
banks can be established, and a compliance
made with certain formal conditions re
quired by the Secretary of the Treasury.
