LOSE OF TESTERDAY's PROCEEDINGS.]
• -
SESTATE.—The resolutions under discus
sion yesterday, for the prevention of the in
troduction of cholera into the ports of the
United States, were taken up.
Mr. Chandler, speaking in favor of the
resolutions, said he did not pretend to know
as much about the cholera as other Sena
tors who had spoken yesterday. He had
only had the disease twice in his life [laugh
terj, and had only
.spent three or four years
of nieflife where it was. A commission or
the best medical men in the world had been
endeavoring, to determine the nature of
cholera; but if they had heard the debate in
the 'Senate yesterday-, they would haVe
learned all about it from the Senator from
Pennsylvania, Mr. Cowan. He (Mr. Cow
an) had solemnly declared that the disease
was not contaalous, but was epidelnic. That
was more than the greatest physician in the
world knew.
After discussion by Messrs. Morrill,Sam
ner, Edmonds and others, the joint resolu
tions were laid over till to-morrow, and the
regular order, which was the - Post Office
Appropriation bill, was taken, up.
The pending question was op the amend
ment of Mr. Trumbull, that no person
appointed during the recess of Congress, to
fill a vacancy occasioned except , by death,
resignation, or expiration of term, shall re
ceive compensation for his services until
confirmed by the Senate.
On this Mr. Wilson, who was entitled to
the floor, said the country clearly under
stands why the amendment proposed by the
Senator from Illinois (Mr. Trumbull) upon
this bill is needed. It grows out of an ap
prehension, of which there are signs daily,
thatiExecutive patronage is to be used to
influence the judgment of the country, and
influence' the public sentiment upon the
great question of reconstruction. It - seemi
to me, sir, that it is legitimate and proper
in connection with this proposition that the
present action ofthe President, and the con
action of the men who made him President
of the United States, should be discussed
in this body, and that nothing can be more
in order than that. • •
I propose to-day, sir, to notice very
briefly a few of the observations made yes
terday by the Senator from Wisconsin (Mr,
Doolittle), and the Senator from Pennsyl
vania (Mr. Cowan). The Senator from
Pennsylvania set out with the declaration
that I had charged the President of the
United States with the betrayal of the Re
publican party;. and, sir, when I stated to
him that I had made no such charge, the
Senator repeated it, and reasserted it. Now,
sir, the record shows that I made no such
charge against the President of the United
States. I have never sought any contro
versy with the President. I have endea
vored, at all times and on all occasions, in
public and in private, to prevent any disa
greement between the President and Con
gress, or the disruption of the ties among
the men who brought him into power. A
year ago, within thirty days after the assas
sination of Mr. Lincoln, I learned from va
rious sources that there was a class of pub
lic men among us who hoped to have a new
cast of the Aunurubtrauou—a reorganiza
tion—a reconstruction of political parties.
It was said, sir, on the one hand, that the
radicals would be sloughed off. and that thP
extreme men from the rebel States would
be sloughed off, and that there would be a
great pblitical organization composed of the
conservative men, and the belief was ex
pressed by those managers that the Presi
dent of the United States would be the
. founder of a great party, as were Jefferson
and Jackson.
Sir, I confess that these hints gave me
some alarm, not in a partisan sense, but
alarm for the country. lam among those,
sir,. who believe in the faith and creed—in
the motives, objects and purposes of that
great political organization that made Mr.
Lincoln President of the United States in
1860, carried the country through the war,
and re-elected Mr. Lincoln in 1864. I be
lieve it to be a liberty loving and patriotic
organization; to be composed of the noblest,
truest and best men ol our country; that an
overwhelming majority of the thoughtful,
reflecting, conscieritious,Bible-reading,God
fearing mgn of the countryare in the ranks.
Every breath that organization has breathed
has been a breath for liberty,for patriotism,
for justice, for humanity, for the elevation
of every i being that breathes God's air and
I Prs,
'walks earth.
Faults it has, and I do not pretend to
claim that its public men are better than
those of other parties that have gotie before
or existed at other times; but the great mass,
the rank and file of the men who give the
votes and make np the organization are
swayed and controlled by as lofty motives
as ever animated the bosom of humanity;
pnd thus believing, sir, I felt it to be the
ffuty of patriotism and of liberty to labor by
_day and by night to prevent the rupture
and preserve the integrity of that organiza
tion that had swept over nearly all the
States of the Union. Animated by that de
sire, during the last autumn for six weeks,
before vast throngs of men in Pennsylvania,
New Jersey and New York, I maintained
everywhere that there would be no differ
ence among us, that there must be no
difference, that there should be none. I
came here animated by that same spirit,
resolved that no word or act of mine should
precipitate the disruption of the great
Union party, and it was only, sir, when the
Civil Rights bill, the dearest measure I
ever supported iu the twelve sessions Ihave
been here, was vetoed, only when the 22d
of February speech was made, and a de
termination avowed to continue a policy
that had been when begun, declared to be
an experiment—it was only then that I felt
the time had come for real cause for this
difference of opinion.
Now, sir, the Senator from Pennsylvania
said another thing, and, I choose to notice
that now. He spoke of the hate that ani
mated some of us. Now, sir, I can say, be
fore my conscience and before my God, that
during these thirty_vears of struggle be
tween the irrepressible forces of anti-slavery
and slavery in Anitrica, I have never enter
tained any sentiment of unkindness to,
wards my countrymen of the slaveholding
States; and, sir, as I have looked upon the
graves of neighbors, of kindred fallen in
the late war, I have never had a feeling of
hatred. I have felt, sir, that this struggle,
which was a contest of ideas, of thought,
of hope and faith, and finally ended in a
bloody struggle, was a logical and philoso
phical contest. It was a contest between
men on the one hand trained 'in the spirit
of liberty, that spirit which embraces in its
affections all the children of men of every
:,clime and race, that spirits that pulls not
the-highest down, but elevates the lowest;
and 'on the other hand, that spirit, that
, dark, malignant spirit of human slavery,
...- that stifles the mind and debases the souL
or two hundred years the one side had
, been trained to freedom, to the love of free
dom, justice and humanity : the other had
' been trained in the spirit of caste. They
were both powerful. It was a contest of
giants.' It was an irrepressible conflict, and
it came to blows, and when it did come to
blows, it rocked the continent with its
power. We have triumphed. Slavery dies
a traitor's death and leaves a traitor's name
• in the history of the republic. Liberty, pa
triotism, justice, humanity, all that is noble,
all that inspires men to elevated deeds, have
gained the ascendant.
I looked upon that contest as one that
could not be:. avoided. It came upon us.
We have - triumphed, and, sir, for one, I
want no more blood, no more confiscation.
, I, want none of their houses or their lands;
and from the day Kirby Smith surrendered
his army to this hour no person from the
rebel States has ever asked a favor from me
or any aid' of mine that I have not .freely
given it, and I mean to give both act and
thought, and everything I have in the
uture, to elevate, improve and buildup that
blasted section of the country. And, sir, - 1
believe what I say , oftuyself loan:say of the
great masses of the men of the free States. I
repeat, we would send and build a church;
erect a school house; send capital, send aid
—everything in our power to build up the
war worn, war-wasted places of the rebel
States.
Mr. Wilson next adverted to the effects of
the President's
,policy, stating that, under
that policy, nearly all the `men elected to
Congress in the South were rebels, who
coulcinot take the oath prescribed for Sena
tors and members of the House. Under Mr.
Johnson's reconstruction policy, said - Mr..
Wilson, every officer elected iu the State - of
Virginia was a traitor to. the 'country, and
moist of them unrepentant traitors. One
man among them he believed to be a truly
loyal man now; but even he had taken part
in the war. In Georgia they had not elected
a single representativewho could take the
oath, and not one elected' in. Florida could;
nor could one from Alabama; and possibly
only 'one - from Mississippi. Of: all_ the
Southern representatives, elected, five, he
thought were as many as might possibly
muster courage to take the oath,and he
thoughttwo of the five could take it with a
clear conscience. Ent•- he doubted if the
others could.
Mr. Cowan (Pa.) in Teply thought it was
a sorry day for the country, and for the
Senator (Mr. Wilson), if men were to be
come so slavish as to be able to surrender
their opinions. If this was to be a free
country, governed by great principles of
liberty, of which he heard so much, he
thought opinion must be free; men mast
be as free to dissent as toassent. He wished
to See in what the President - 'had proved
treacherous to the Republican party. What
did a man agree to when he joined a party?
To the principles established in , national
convention as the platform of a party. 'But
be thought.any gentleman might change
bis principles and leave the party without
being-guilty of treachery, and as to 'matters
to which a'man never assented, matters not
established or declared to be principles of
the party be never bad understood or heard
that a man must Change his opinions thereon
if a majority of the party chose so to do.
He considered the present :positions aki-
Burned by Mr. Wilson were simply verifi
cations of the Democratic predictions. He
was himself a Union man, had - faith in the
Union, and in the people of the Union
.North, and in the Union people South.
According to Mr. Wilson's remarks he
would conclude that that gentlemen consid
ered the restoration of the Union impossi
ble. He remembered that the Chicago plat
form had declared the war a failure because
it was not a means to restore the Union in
Democratic opinion, but a means of mak
ing it more difficult. They said it would
widen the breach; and as he (Mr. Cowan)
understood Mr. Wilson, the letter declared
that it bad. The Democrats who made the
Chicago platform did not believe the war
was a failure because it did not spill enough
blood and killed enough of people, or be
cause great battles were not fought, bat be
cause they thought it would intensify the
hostilities between the sections in feeling,
and he thought Mr, Wilson's speech went to
show that the Democratic prophecy was
fulfilled. He (Mr. Cowan) did not think
that the Democrats were less honest in their
opinions than Mr Wilson or himself. He
could not consider that, because of their
opinions, they were traitors. If he thought
half the men in the North.were traitors,and
all in the South, he would like to leave the
country. He (Mr. Cowan) preferred the
frankness of Wendell Phillips, whom he
called the typical man of the radical party,
who, whatever might be said, must be al
lowed to be ever open and undisguised in
the avowal of his opinions, and frank in the
statement of his designs.
In the course of his speech, Mr. Cowan re
ferred to Mr. Creswell as having offered in
a county meeting in Maryland, a few years
ago, a set of resolutions that looked very
much like secession.
Mr. Creswell said he never offered the re
solutions referred to. He had nothing to do
with them.
Mr. Edmonds (Vt.) asked Mx. Cowan
whether the political crime of treason did
not deserve the forfeiture of political rights.
Mr. Cowan said treason deserved exactly
the punishment prescribed for it. It could
not be punished by an ex post facto law.
The way to punish crime waste appeal to
the law, but it was more fashionable now to
appeal to the Committee of Fifteen.
Mr. Edmonds asked if it was not justi
fiable by the law of nations to exclude from
political power men who were dangerous to
a community by the committal of political
treason?
Mr. Cowan said it must be remembered
that this was not a government of absolute
power; it was a government of law: there
was no right to impose any penalty not pro
vided by law. An attempt had been made
he said, and was being made, to create an
opinion that the President was deserting the
platform on which he was elected in not
punishing traitors, but he (Mr. Cowan)
would say in behalf of the President, he
would say for the President to the Senate,
"Get your tribunal,and five hundred or five
thousand, if you want them, of the leaders,
with Jeff. Davis at their head, are ready for
you. ,,
He supposed it would not be contended
that the President should turn public prose
cutor; there were citizens enough, with in
telligence enough, and desire enough, to
bring them through the ordinary channels
within the clutches of the law, and, added
he, "I say on the part of the President, if
you fix your tribunals and get your machi
nery ready, you can have live hundred or
five thousand of them to try to-morrow, and
you need not be particular about the selec
tion : you can select them yourselves. And
now, who can throw the blame in this mat-.
ter upon the President?'' But they must
not be tried, he thought, by a military corn-
mission, as they have been: declared extra
judicial by the Supreme Court.
r. Doolittle rose at the close of Mr. Co
wan's speech, and in a brief speech reviewed
the relations of the President to the Union
party, alleging that Mr. Johnson was ad
hering to the Baltimore platform upon which
he was elected. When men undertook to
charge him (the President) with deserting
the principles of the Union party, he hurled
back the charge at them.
Mr. Nye replied to Mr. Doolittle, saying
he was not going to be led into the error of
:•aying a word in derogation of the Presi
dent. He would watch and pray that he
(the President) would do nothing to bring
a stain upon the great Union party. As to
the difference between Congress and the
President, it was only charged that Congress
had done nothing—so that its sin was one of
omission only. It could not be expected
that after the upheayings of the last five
years peace could be brought about in a day,
or a week, or a month.
If he (Mr. Nye) had any fault to find
with the President, it was that he (the Pre
sident) had established what in his mes
sage he called an experiment, and he
seemed determined to make it a fixture
and to alienate from the Union party all
who did not agree with him. He did not
say that the President was going to injure
the Union party, but there were auspicious
circumstances about it. Why was it that
the Senator from Delaware, who a few
months ago was denouncing Lincoln had
got a new song put into his mouth, and
was defending the policy of the Executive ?
Referring to Executive pardons, Mr. Nye
said the President, so far from making
treason odious, was pardoning rebels as
fast as they presented themselves. He had
called on the President this morning to re
commend the pardon of a man who had
passed a dollar in counterfeit treasury
notes. When he had left the White House
the pardon had not been granted,but there
were plenty of pardons for rebels and
traitors.
THE DAILY EVENING BIILLtTIN : PHILADELPHIA, THURSDAY, MAY 10, 1866.
„
Pending the consideration of the subject
the Senate at adjourned.
House —The Minim .continued.the con
sideration of the special order, being- the
constitutional' -amendment reported- from
the Reconstruction Committee.
•
Mr. Shanklin (K y.ictoposed the measure.
Mi. Raymond (N. Y.,),favored it; excepting
that portion of the :third section which pro=
poses to exclude the great body of the Peo
pla of eleven States from the exercise of the
right of suffrage, and - to that he was op
posed.
Mr. McKee (Ky.) spoke in supportot the
measure. He proposed to, amend' Mr. Gar
field's motion to sec,ornmit 'with instruc
tions, by striking out the third section and
inserting the following: ' "All persons WhO
voluntarily adhered to the late insurrection
giving aid and 'comfort to the so-called
Southern Confederacy,.are forever excluded
Irorn holding any .othce of trust orprwit
under the Government of the - United
States." He held that the adoption:of such
an amendment would obviate_ the objection
made to the practicability of enforcing the
article. - '
Mr. Eldridge (Wis.) spoke in opposition
to the plan. He was followed by Mr. - Boat- -
Well (Mass.) in advoc.acy of it. In reference
to the, third section, Mr. Boutwelll said its
adoption was not necessary.
Mr. Spalding was the next speaker. Be
lieVing in the wisdom, patriotism and._ sa
gacity of the Committee on Reconstruction,
he:would avail himself thereof, and . would
vote for one and fill of the measures re
ported, without the least variation.
" Mr. Miller spoke in support of the mea
sure. The Reconstruction Committee had
reported a plan which be approved;and he
trusted that the proposed amendment to the
Constitution Would be, adopted. . .
Mr. Eliot followed on the same sido, ex
plaining at length his reasons for'sru_stain
ing the report, of the Committee. As 'to, the
third section he was indifferent whether it
was retained or struck out • If retained, he
should still vote 113 i thejoint resolution.. If
struck out, all the affirmative good contem
plated by the amendment would still' be
effected. ..
Mr. Shellabarger confessed that he was
not in favorof applying to the comlnonpeo
ple of the South any exclusion from the
elective franchise. He would not make it
apply to a single person to whom it was
not necessary for the safety of the Republic
to make it apply. At the same time he did
not see any practical difficulty in enforcing
that section. It could be done effectually
by a registry on which the names of quad
fled and disqualified voters should be in
scribed.
Mr. Wilson (Iowa) called Mr. Raymond
to task about some supposed inconsistency
between his position on the pending
measure and his position on the Civilßights
bill, which Mr. Raymond, acknowledging
the interest taken in his record by the gen
tleman from lowa, explained to be no in
consistency at all.
Mr. Stevens gave notice that at three
o'clock to-morrow be would move the pre
vious question, and ask a vote on thejoint
resolution.
The House, at half-past four, took a re
cess till half-past seven,when the considera
tion of the Tax bill will be resumed.
Eveni7lo Session.—The House met at 7.30,
and went into the Committee of the Whole
on the State of the 'Union, Mr. Washburae
(Hi.) in the chair, and resumed the con
sideration of the Tax bill, commencing at
the seventh section, which refers to regula
tions as to assessing and collecting taxes on
cotton.
Several verbal amendment were made to
the section,and instead of the imprisonment
provided for the crime of perjury in rela
tion to the tax, the section was amended so
as to read "shall be subject to the punish
ment prescribed by existing statutes for
that offence."
To section 8, relating to the same mat
ter, no important amendments were made.
Section 9th contains a large number of
paragraphs, amending in detail sections of
the existing Revenue act.
Mr. Stevens called attention to the im
mense power reposed in Assessors by the
act to impose fines and penalties for alleged
violations or frauds, and mentioned some
instances to illustrate his idea.. He moved
an amendment to come in at the end of the
paragraph amending section 14 of the pre
sent laws pending that in lien of the remedy
now provided, wherever fraud is charged to
exist in any return, where the party charged
shall deny the fraud and demand a trial,
proceedings shall be suspended and stilt
brought in a District Court of the United
States to recover the amount of the deft,
ciency or fraud and penalty.
After considerable discussion the amend
ment was passed over for the present, and
the House proceeded to the consideration of
the paragraphs following.
About an hour was consumed in proposi
tions in reference to the publishing of no
tices by Assessors. In one of the decisions
taken, a quorum had not voted, and there
consequently had to be a call of the House.
One hundred and four members, eleven
more than a quorum, answered to their
names, and the consideration of the bill was
resumed. The paragraph amending section
22 of the existing act, to regulate the salary
and fees of Assessors, give rise to a variety
of propositions, but no/important changes
were made. At 10 P. M. the Committee
rose, after having disposed of 16 pages of the
bill, and the House adjourned.
