..100CIXTII CONGRESS-FIRST SESSION
[CLOSE OF YESTERDAY'S PROCEEDINGS.]
SENATE.—Mr. Grimes (Iowa). from the
Committee of Conference on the Naval Ap
propriation bill, made a report, stating that
the bill, as'agreed to by the Committee of
Conference, was substantially that passed
by the Senate. The appropriation for the
purchase of Oakman & Eldridge's wharf, at
Charlestown, Mass., is stricken out; also,
the appropriation of five thousand dollars
for testing petroleum as fuel.
The report was agreed to.
'Mr. Doolittle (Wis.) presented a petition
for increased import duties on. foreign wool,
which was referred to the Committee on Fi
nance.
Mr. Anthony (R. I.) called up a bill au
thorizing the distributibn to District Judges
and Judges of the Territorial Courts one
copy..of .the Congressional-Globe-. and of
other documents on subjects of a general
nature. In the ccuro_e_a_a_few remarks on
this bill, Mr. Anthony said that several
speeches had been omitted,a‘nd others had
been so much altered lately, that he did not
think the Globe was very valuable after all.
On motion, further consideration of the
bill was postponed for the present.
Mr. Williams called up a bill to prevent
the absence of Territorial officers from their
officialduties. It provides that no Territo
rial officer shall be permitted to absent him
self from the Territory of which he is an
offiderfor More than thirty days at a time.
Mr. Williams said the absence of Territo
lal officers from their posts of duty on the
other side of the Rocky ~Mountains was a
source of great evil to the Territories. Ter
ritorial. Judges, Governors - and Secretaries
frequently absented themselves for six
months at a time, to visit Washington and
other Eastern citios.
Mr. Grlines was conscious that great in
justice had been done to the people of the
territories by the absence of their officers,
but he thought the bill was too sweeping in
its character.
Mr. Nesmith thought the provisions of the
bilLa little too stringent. In many cases the
absence of territorial officers was necessary
for, the discharge of their duties.
Mr. Conness said the bill called his atten
tion to the fact that territorial officers were
selected from superannuated politicians of
the east, for whom no use could be found at
borne. These men corrupted the manners
of the people of the territories. Territorial
officers, Mr. Conness said, ought to be se
, lected from inhabitants of the territories,
and not from used-up politicians of the east.
Pending the consideration of this bill the
morning hour expired, and the special or
der, which was the consideration of bills
from the Pension Committee was taken up.
The Senate took up the resolution pro
hibiting the sale of intoxicating liquors in
the Capitol buildings, with the House
amendments prohibiting the sale also in all
other public buildings. The Senate refused
to concur in the House amendments.
On motion of Mr. Grimes, it was ordered
that when the Senate adjourn to-day it, ad
journ to meet on Monday next.
Mr. Sprague (R. I.) asked the Chairman
of the Committee on the District of Colum
bia (Mr. Morrill)when he intended to report
the bill conferringthe right of suffrage upon
colored persons in the District.
_ Mr. 'Morrill said he would introduce the
bill at an early day.
Mr. Morrill introduced a communication
from the colored people of the District of Co
lurapia,_saking Congress to participate in
the celebration of the abolition of slavery in
the District on its anniversary, April 16.
Referred to the Committee on the District of
Columbia.
Mr. Chanler,
from the Committee of Con
ference on the disagreeing votes on the bill
to authorize the sale of marine hospitabsand
zevenue cutters, made a.report, which was
agreed 'to,
.Mr. Poland introduced aresolution calling
upon the Secretary of the Interior for what
information may be in his possession as to
the prevalence of rinderpest in this country;
what measures should be taken for its pre-
TentiOn, &c. Adopted.
Mr. Poland introduced a resolution for
the printing of six thousand copies of the
eulogies on the late Mr. Foot, with Dr.
Sutherland's sermon. Referred to the
Printing Committee.
The - Senate" proceeded to the considera
tion of private bills from the Committee on
Invalid Pensions and at 4.15 went into ex
ecutive session andi soon after adjourned till
Monday.
HousE.—Mr. Farnsworth, in the absence
of Mr. Banks, who was sick, made a report
from the committee of conference on the •
disagreeing votes of the two Houses on the
Naval Appropriation bill. The House re
cedes from its disagreement to the follow
ing amendments of the Senate, viz: appro.,.
priating $200,000 for the quay wall eaten
sion and continuing the work on the new
machine and boiler shop at the New York
Nevy-yard; appropriating $91,000 for the
ship joiners, shop and store house, number
14, at Norfolk; reducing the appropriation
for the American Nautical Almanac from
$20,000 to $15,000. The House agrees to all
the foregoing.
The Senate recedes from its amendments
appropriating $135,000 for the purchase of
Oakman & Eldridge's wharf at the Boston
Navy Yard, which is to read "for the pre
servation and necessary repairs of the
property of the - United States at the Pensa,
cola Navy Yard, $50,000, or so much thereof
as may be necessary. The Senate agree
to the appropriation for $5,000 for testing the
use of petroleum as a fire under marine
boilers. The House recedes from its
action striking out the clause inserted by
the Senate for the purchase of othergrounds
at Annapolis for the use of the Naval
Academy,s2s,ooo, and agrees to that clause.
The clause in reference to foUndry and ma
chine shop is to read as follows : "For the
erection of a machine shop at the Naval
Aeademy, twenty thousand dollars."
The Senate agreed to the amendment of
the fourth Section, so that it will read "and
be it further enacted, that so much of the
second. Section of an act entitled 'an act to
regulale the pay of the navy of the United
States,' approved March 3,1835, as prohibits
any allowance to any officer in the naval
service for rent of quarters, or for furniture
or for lights or fuel,or transporting baggage,
and all acts and parts of acts authorizing
the appointment of navy agents, be and the
same are hereby repealed.'
The Conference report was agreed to.
The Speaker presented avommunication
from the Secretary of War, in compliance
with resolution of March 14, stating that he
has no data by which to form an opinion as
to the effect the erection of a quarantine
station will have on the navigable,waters of
Mew York harbor.
Also, a communication from the same in
answer to'resolution of 10th inst., in relation
to the findings of the commission in the
ease of the awards to the captors of Booth
and Harold. Laid on the table and ordered
to be printed.
On motion of Mr. Farnsworth, the letter
from the Secretary of War stating the
amount paid to and still claimed by the
It
iinois Central ;Railroad Company for trans
portation, &a., was transferred- from the
Committee on Appropriation to the Com
mittee on the-Judiciary.
A message from the President in, refer
ence to the fisheries was received.
The , ouse having taken up the bill tore-
organize and _establish the army of the
United States spa special order, ..Mr.Schenok
ilealined to agree ' to the suggestion of M.
Raymond to--let the message be read,"alid
the House proceeded to the consideration of
the Army bill.
The -having been read in full ;
Mr. Schenck said it was not necessary for
hinatti refer to the importanc,e of this bill.
relatedld the - great arm= of public de
fence to the Illattaber ' cost and condition of
thatarAn selitidiall to) Au3sreafter preserved
for the public 'defence. This bill was
fraffied in conformity with the views of the
Lieutenant General of the army, and was
sanctioned by the Secretary of War, in so
far as it regarded the nuffiber of the stand
ing army. - It provided fez. an army to con
sist of fifty thousand men, but with an or
ganization capable of expansion to eighty
two thousand six hundred. His (Aim opinion
was that the army should amount to at least
one hundred. thousand men, but he yielded
his opinion to the high authority of the
general commanding the army; which was
sanctioned by the President. Without
going into details, it would be found that
the number agreed upon was by no means
too great.
The bill paSsed by the Senate provided
for ir less number than that reported by the
Committee on Military Affairs. The Senate
fixed the number of infantry regiments at
; fifty;• and . the coffimittee at ty-five, which
was according to this recommendation of,
the Secretary of War and of the Lieutenant
General commanding. The ••paring down
;of these five regiments by the Senate was
done, apparently for the ,purpose of crowd
ing out and getting rid of the :Veteran Re
serve Corps. The committee retained fifty
five regiments, leaving ten of them for the
Veteteran Reserve Corps. The appropria
tions for the army for the last year of the
/ rebellion amounted to $516,000,000. The
estimate for the army proposed -to be re
tained amounts to thirty-three millions, one
sixteenth part of what the army cost during
the last year of the war.
Another feature of this bill in which it
differstrom that of the Senate was in regard
to the number of colored troops. The Senate
proposed eight regiments of colored troops,
while this bill proposed ten regiments of
infantry. The proposed that two of the
twelve calvary regiments provided for in
both bills should be composed of colored
inen, while the House bill contained no
such clause.
He was aware that there would be objec
tions from some quarters to the preserving
of the Veteran Reserve Corps. He would
not• now go into any argument as to the or
ganization of that corps, its services, its
character, or the manner in which it was
officered. He would but say that this corps,
which sprung from the necessities of the
war, had . its birth in the exigencies of the
great Struggle. lt was proposed in
this bill to retain ten regiments of this
corps, the officers of those regiments to
be drawn not exclusively from those who
were officers in the twenty-four regiments
that hereto existed, but to be selected by
examination from among those officers,
and f om among all other wounded volun
teer officers who may have the requisite
qualifications.
Their enlisted men were to be such as
might be fit for light or garrison duty, who
might be assigned for service in the corps,
but all of whom would be rejected from
other regiments. Another feature in the
bill reported was the preservation, as a dis
tinct bureau, of the Provost Marshal Gene
ral and his assistants. He knew that that
would be a subject of objection. He would
only say here that, considered recruiting as
the great means-of keeping up the num
bers of the army, the committee concluded
that some such bureau was necessary, as,
under the Adjutant General's Department,
recruiting had been heretofore a decided
failure.
In this bill the committee had not con
fined the selection of the officers to be ap
pointed to fill up original vacancies in the
various arms of the service to volunteer
officers, but proposed to extend it to all
volunteers, whether officers or soldiers,who
Could' by examination' prove themselves
possessed of the requisite qualifications,and
who should have a record of service in con
nection with their qualifications f iwhether
as privates or as officers, entitling them to
such selection. Another peculiar feature of
this bill differing from that of the Senate bill
is this. There was a provision in the Senate
bill that, in selecting officers for the newly
organized regiments, two-thirds of them
should be taken from volunteer regiments
and soldiers; thtfselection of the other third
to be left to the discretion of the Presi
dent, and that all the regular army officers
who have during the war commanded
volunteer troops, shall be connected either
as regular army officers or as volunteer offi
cers. The committee regarded this as giv
ing the first third of the prize to the regular
army officers, and then remitting to the en
joyment of the other two-thirds those army
'officers who bad commanded volunteers
during the war, thus cutting off the volun
teer officers. The committee has inserted
in lieu of it a section that no officer of the
regular army who has commanded volun
teer forces during the war shall, on that ac
count, be counted as a volunteer officer, but
shall only be counted as an officer of the
regular army.
Another very important provision of the
bill was a provision for revising the whole
army list as it now stood, in order to deter
mine what officers should properly be re
tained in the service. It might be thought
that that was very radical. The commit, ee
had thought that in this transition period.
when establishing a new army, one mode
of making the army serviceable would be
to have a general revision of all those who
now constituted its officers, in order to de
termine who should be retained. The pro
vision agreed upon by the committee would
not interfere with many officers; and might
not interfere with any of them. It was not
a star chamber mode of procedure,
such as that which prevailed when the navy
list was revised, but a fair proceedure, by
which each arm of the service should be
represented in a general council of officers,
who should go through the whole army
list, and set down to be retained in the ser
vice all against whom no objection is urged;
only, when they report as to any officer,
that officer shall not be dismissed, dis
graced, or deprived of his position, but that
officer shall have due notice to come before
the Board with his witnesses, and have his
case fairly examined and determined.
The House proceeded to consider the bill
by sections for amendment.
Mr. Davis moved to amend the first sec
tion by reducing the number of regiments
from fifty-five to fifty. "
After, some debate, it which it appeared
that Mr. Davis' amendment aimed at the
exclusion of the Veteran Reserve Corps; the
section was passed over informally, that
Question coming up more-directly in the
fifth section.
The second section, referring to the five
regiments of artillery, passed over without
amendment,
A:Pumber of amendments were proposed
and some adopted to , the third section,
which provides for twelve regiments of
cavalry. This section gave rise to much
debate and numerous propositions of
amendments.
Pending its consideration the bill went
over till Monday. •
The evening session having beendispensed
with;
Mr. Stevens suggested that tomorrow
being the anniversary of a very striking
event, the assassination of Mr. Lincoln, the
House should adjourn over.
The Speaker intimated that several gentle
men desired to speak to-morrow.
Mr.,Stevens declined, therefore, to move
to adjourn over, but moved that the pro
ceedings to-morrow be, confined to general
debate on the President's annual message.
It was SO' orilered.
The Sneaker presented a message from
the President of, the United States, in answer
to a resolution of the 10th instant requesting
information in, reference to the rights and
interests, of American citizens in the fishing
grounds adjacent to the British Provinees v
transmitting a report from the Sehretary of
State.
