[CLOSE Or YESTERDAY'S PII94SIDFETSa
SENATE.-Mr. Sumner (Mt 95.), !from the
Committe4.9l2Fgreign Affair% At - ported the
following - resolution, which was laid on the
table and ordered to be-Prinfed
Whereas, .It appears from official corres
pondence that the authorities of Basle, a
canton in Switzerland, have recently under
taken to pardon a person convicted of mur
der, on the condition that he would emigrate
to America; meaning thereby the Unitod
States, and there is reason to believe that
similar pardons of persons convicted of in
famous offenaes have been granted in other
countries; now, therefore,
Resoliled, That the Congress of the United
States protests against such acts, as un
friendly and inconsistent with the comity of
nations, and hereby requests the. President
of the United States to - cause a copy , of this
protest to be communicated to the represen
tatives of the United States in foreign coun
tries, with instructions to present it to the
government where they are - accredited re
spectively, and to insist that no such acts
shall, under any circumstances, be repeated.
Mr. Riddle (Del.), fromthe Ranting Com
mittee, reported a resolution to print ten
tliousand copies of the report of the Joint
Committee on Reconstruction, with the ac
companying testimony, for the use of the
Senate. The.'Committee recommended the
printing of six thousand instead of ten thou
sail& •- " • •
.=Mr.'Wade hoped the amendment of the
committee-would gulopted. This was
an important document Mid ought to be cir
culated.'
Mi. Riddle inquired if Mr. Wade knew
the cost of the.printing.
Mr. Wade said it would only be the differ
ence between six, thousand and ten thou
sand::.
z Davis--I would like to know upon
what principal of justice and impartiality
he evidence is taken. One gentleman, of\
North Carolina, one of the truest and most
honorable patriots in the land, gave me this
informationin relation to the State of North
Carolina. He informed me that the evi
dence of 801310 men connected with the
Freedmen's Bureau had been taken. He
'addressed aletter to a member of the com
mittee,: requesting that witnesses whose
names had been suggested by those who
claimed seats in the Senate and House
should be allowed to, give their evidence
before the committee, When I last con
versed with him he had received no such
oriVilege as that. If a just and intelligent
and impartial committee litnuld seek for
the truth; the whole truth, and nothing but
the truth, in relation to this matter, the in
quiry would be a subject of deep interest
to the count:LT, and the result of their labors
should be presented to the country;' but if
that committee proceeds upon the prin
ciple of suppressing evidence, sup
pressing the truth and silencing,
or at least refusing to hear evidence in be
half of the gentlemen who claim seats in
the two Houses from the eleven excluded
States, I, for one, am opposed to publishing,
at the public expense, the results of their
labors. Ido not believe, at least I have
very little faith. in the various letters and
information read to the Senate by the hon
orable Senator from Massachusetts pre
sented to this body. I have no confidence
whatever, or very. little, in the testimony
which the men in the employment of the
Freedmen's Bureau give in relation to the
state of public sentiment in the Southern
States.
Mr: Davis then said that as a sample of
the kind of evidence furnished by those
employed by the Freedmen's Bureau, he
would read from a speech made a few
weeks ago by Gen. Clinton B. Fisk, in Cin
cinnati, and published in the Cincinnati
Commercia/. He characterized the state
ment in it in relation to tha treatment of
negroes in Kentucky as, false and calum
nious. -
-Mr. Wilson said that since the Senator
from-Kentucky had risen, he had cut out
of a paper a speech made by Colonel; W. P.
Thomasen, now at the head of the Freed
men's-Bureau ins Louisville, Kentucky,who
Was formerly a member of the House of
Representatives from Kentucky. Colonel
,
Thomason says in his speech, 'lt is said
there is no necessity for the Bureau in
Kentucky , . Our Senators in Congress have
asserted that all the rights of the Freedmen
are protected by State laws. Now, my po
sition enables me to say that neither Gene
ral Palmer's letter nor General Fisk's
speech in Cincinnati has told more than a
fraction of the truth upon that subject.
Our State laws do not protect colored
people.'?
I have simply to say,in regard to General
Fisk, that he is a gentleman of talent and
character, and a Christian man, whose word
will go further in this nation than the asser
tion of every rebel, sympathizer in Ken
tticky. As to General Palmer, the country
knows that he is an eminent citizen of Illi
nois. He is a native of Kentucky, a man
of Capacity and high character. He knows
what is going on in that State. Mr. Wilson
then referred to the fact that military tri
bunals had repeatedly convicted men of
cruel and inhuman treatment of negroes in
Kentucky, and the evidence taken before
these tribunals could not be controverted.
-Mr. Grimes said that, as a member of the
Redonstruction Committee, having charge
of the investigation of the condition of af
fairs in one of the rebel States, he felt called
upon to say that had not been a single
instance of the name being presented to the
committee, by any man claiming a seat in
Congress from the rebel States, in which the
individtial had not been sent. for and ex
amined. As to General Fisk he would say
that he came-here at-the request of the com
mittee. having, been sent for by the Secre
tary'pf-War.. He did'not, come here of his
own accord, as was charged by Mr. Davis.
Mr. _Fessenden said that so far as he knew
there had not' ;been a single application
made by any one claitiaing a seat in which
the individual euggested had not been ex
amined;'but one applicatiOn had been made
to him pepionally, and that came by,letter,
and woe a reqUest introduce testimony,
and it was granted, as all others were.
Mr. Williams said. that as a member of
the Reconstruction Committee and of a sub
c(•mmittee having' in charge the investiga
tion of-the condition' of lottiniana, Texas
and Florida, he felt called upon to deny the
assertions of Mr. Davis that there had' been
partiality in the selection of witnesses.' No
application bad been denied, and every wit
ness named by pereon e B eata in
Congress had-been exaMined. •
Mr. Johnson, ana metriberlof the Recon
struction Committee, also felt called upon
to say that every witness whose name had
been suggested , by any one ciai m i n k • a • sea t
in Congress had been examine& On the
sub-committee 'of which he (Mr. Johnson)
was a member; out, of fifteen persons ei.=
amined, thirteen had been suggested . by
peTe . ons claiming seats- from thelately re
bellious States. , •- •
:Mr. Davis said that a North Carolina gen
ilernan:of known character and reputation
hatttold. him hnhad been denied the privi
lege of introducing 'testimony before th
committee, • e
Mr.„C.onnegs :replied taMr.,Davis, favor
i ng , the Ointing of a larger number of copies
than,the original resolution provided for.
Mr.] Davis 'rose. gave may. to Mr.
Trumball,:who said that he observed a dis
position to debate this ;resolution,; and he
therefore_moved to postpone the eubject for
thopresent. „ • , ,

Senate oomate'a vote, but the Senator fluid
Kenttichy hasjust. risen, anirvilien he „rises
there is no telling when he will take his'
seat. [Laughter.]
Mr. Davie said the Senator from Illinois
must admit, that:the provocathm was Very
,
great for 'a long speech Just now; batbe
would promise to occupy only= a few
minutes. - , •
Mr. Trumbull —I. will give way to tho
Senator from Kentucky if he will' get
through in a few/minutes. [Laughter.]
Mr. Davis took the floor and spoke of the
mal-administration of military affairs in.
Kentucky , . •
Mr. Hendricks said that as a matter of
economy it was worth while to reflect that
the printing expenses of.the government had
'gone up from a few hundred thousand to
over, two millions per annum. He would
vote for the printing of the report, however,
believing it important for the country to_
know the proceedings, of the- Cbmmitte4
whbee appomtment .he coneidered unfor
tunate. In the course, of, debate he (Mr.
Hendricks). bad i heard it asked ivhether
rebels dripping 'with the' blOod of loyal
men should.be admitted to Congress. That
was not the question; there was an oath
which it was not !proposed to repeal, which
would keep voluntary rebels out, He was
only-in favor of the admission of men whose
loyalty could not be questioned, and he be
lieved all such should.be admitted...
. -
The question was then taken "on, the
amendment to strike out ten thousandiand
insert'six thousand.
The amendment was'disagreed to,and the
original resolution wus'passed.
Mr. Trumbull called up the Civil Rights
bill. The question being upon concurrence
in the Rouse amendments.
' Mr.-Dttvis Moved to la the - bill upon the
table, and rose to address'the Senate.
The Chair (Mr. Foster)—A motion to lay
the bill on the table is not debatable.
[Langhter.]
Mr. Davis—Then I move to ,postpone it
until December next. `ls `that debatable?
The Chair—lt is debatable •in so far as it
elates to the merits of. postponement.
Mr. Davis proceeded with some remarks
on the general merits of the bill, and was
about to read some sections of it, when
Mr. Trumbull rose to a point of order.
He said the bill IS not before the Senate for
discussion. It passed the Senate, and it has
passed OA House of Representatives with
certain amendments. The question now is
will the Senate concur with the House in its
amendments. We cannot vote on the bill
again, but only on these amendments, and
of course we cannot discuss a question upon
which we cannot vote, all the amendments
have been adopted except the last one,
which is now pending. The Senator from
Kentucky moves to postpone the bill until
next December. That does not bring up a
discussion upon the merits of the bill,which
the Senator purposes to read, because we
cannot vote on the bill. It has passed the
Senate, and I insist, as he proposes to read
the bill and discuss it, that it is out of order
to discuss a bill upon which the Senate can
not vote.
The Chair gave the opinion that the merits
of a bill could not be discussed on a motion
to postpone; reasons mightbegiven for post
ponement and against postponement, but
the general merits of the bill must not be
discussed.
Mr. Davis inquired if it would be in order
for him to show that Congress had no right
to pass such a bill at aIL
The Chair said the only question that
could be discussed by Mr Davis was the
postponement until next December.
Mr. Davis 'said if that were so, he would
withdraw that motion and move to post
pone. indefinitely.
The Chair stated that the motion to post
pone indefinitely would not allow of dis
cussion any more than the motion to post
pone till December.
Mr. Davis—Well, if I• don't make any
thing by the change, I will adhere to my
original motion. [Laughter].
Mr. Trumbull said he would not object to
the Senator from Kentucky attempting to
show that the last amendment proposed by
the House was unconstitutional.
Mr. Davis said he would show that the
whole bill, including the last section, was
unconstitutional, and he addressed the Sen
ate at length on this subject.
At the conclusion of Mr. Davis' remarks
the last amendment of the House was
agreed to.
The bill, as it has passed both houses, and
will be presented to the President for his
signature, is as follows:`
