Whereas, The Housis on a previous occa
sion instructed the Committee on Military
Affairs to report a bill equalizing the boun
ties of the soldiers and sailors;
And whereas, Early action by Congress is
demanded by many of these soldiers and
sailors, and the widows and orphans of
those who have perished on the field and in
the hospitals, and in the rebel prison pens;
And whereas, This session of Congress is
far spent, and no definite raction has yet
been had upon the subject; therefore,

otherwise on the subject at any time.
The resolution was adopted.
The following resolution, offered by Mr.

Whereas,The Governors of several of the

merce; therefore,

be requested to send sufficient naval force to
the fishittg grounds to protect our citizens

nized by the treaty of 1783.
Mr. Morrill (Vt.) suggested that there was
some question as to whether the rights re

Mr. Pike, (Me.), actin g on that sfuggestion,
modified the resolution by addingthe words
"and by subsequent treaties."

store the Union on the basis of permanent

ration of this House is pledged to him in
support of the general policy of niconstrac
tion inaugurated by him in the modes au
thorized by the-Constitution and consistent
with the security of republican institutions.
The Speaker announced the expiration of
the morning hour, stating that it was the
duty of the Chair to call up the special order
for this day, the Army bill.
Mr. Schenck, in consequence of the ab
sence of his colleague on the Committee,
Mr. Blaine, moved that the Army bill be
postponed until the 12th of April, and that
in the meantime the bill, with the amend
ments reported by the Committee,be printed,
with extra copies, which was so ordered.
Mr. Hubbard (N. Y.) offered a resolution,

diciary, reported back the Senate bill passed

fectually to provide for the punishment of
certain crimes against the United States.
Mr. Wilson (Iowa) asked leave to offer the
following resolutions:
Whereas, It is reported that orders have
been issued directing that all colored troops
shall be mustered out of service; and
• Whereas, It is also reported that very
many of said troops desire to remain in the
service, and that the white volunteers gene
rally desire to be mustered Out, in order
that they may return to their homes and
engage in their accustomed civil pursuits;
therefore,
.Resolved, That the Committee on Military
Affairs be instructed to inquire whether
said reports are true,
and if true, that the
Committee report all the facts tothe House
concerning said orders and the desire of
said troops, together with such other in
formation relative to the subject-matter of
the inquiry as the_Cornmittee may obtain.
Finck objected. •
Mr. Schenck remarked that the Committee

the facts. Subsequently' Mr. Schenck pre
sented a communication on the subject
from the Secretary of War, which was laid
on the table and ordered to be printed.

THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN ; PHILADELPHIA, TUESDAY,. APRIL 3,18 . 66,
soldiers who were kille d and buried on the
various battlefields about Atlanta, Ga., and
if not, whether any special appropriation is
need therefor.
Mr. Schenk suggested that the inquiry
should be addressed•to the President, and not
to the Secretary of War.
The 'resolution, being so modified, was
adopted.

said, was fifteen feet long, signed by many
hundred citizens of his district, asking that
