XXXIX.TH CONGIECESS-FIBST SESSION.
[CLOSE OF YESTERDAY'S _PROCEEDINGS.]
SENATE.-Mr. Grimes (Iowa) called up
the bill to define the number and regulate
the appointment of officers in the navy, and
explained its provisions in a brief speech.
The amendment of the committee, to in
sert the words ' " one admiral" in the first
section, was agreed to.
The bill was then passed, with an amend
ment as an additional section that second
assistanrengineers shall - baappointed by the
President, and confirmed by the Senate as
naval officers. It now goes to the HoUse.
The consideration of the joint resolution to
enable the 'United States to participate in the
Paris Exhibition was taken up as the unfin
ished business of yesterday.
The question.was upon_the amendment of
Mr. Grimes, providing that no officer shall
; be appointed, or no money paid under this
resolution, until the Imperial Government
shall have given proper assurance to this
GOvernment of the immediate withdrawal
of tbe French troops from the territory of
the Republic of Mexico.
After considerable debate, in which the
French occupation of Mexico was de
nounced, Mr. Grimes withdrew the amend
ment, saying be had offered it merely to get
an expression of opinion.
Mr. Grimes offered an amendment pre
olnding members of • Congress, or others
bolding offices of honor and trust under the
Government,' -from being Commissioners
under this act. Adopted.
Mr. Harris (1•1:Y.") offered an amendment
appropriating $25,000" in coin for the erection
of buildings in Paris for, the accommodation
of tbe United States.
Tending the consideration of the above
amendment, the . Senate at 4 o'clock, ad
jaurned.
Houss.—The bill to establish assay offices
at Portland, Oregon and to discontinue the
branch mints at Dallas City, Oregon, Char-
lotto, N. C., and Dahlonega, Georgia, was
passed.
.11r. Hooper (Mass.), from the Committee
on Banking, reported. a bill to amend the
National Currency act. Read twice and
recommitted, will leave to report at any
time.
bection 18 gives the Controller of the
Currency additional power to proceed' sum
marily against any bank which may be
found, or which he has reason to believe has
been, guilty of any violation of the banking
law. He may appoint a commissioner at
any time to investigate the affairs of any
bank, and upon satisfactory proof that any
bank is not carrying on the, legitimate busi
ness of banking, be may appoint a receiver
to close up its affairs.
Section 21 reduces the circulation of all
_National Banks whose capital exceeds
$300,000, ten per cent., and that no bank
_shall have a circulation of more than
$1,000,000, and provides that such reduction
may be enforced by a retention of the in
, terest of any bonds deposited in the Trea
sury. The reduction must take place by
the first of January, 1867. It provides
further, that there shall be $30,000,000 addi•
-
tional bank circulation in the place of this
reduction; $15,000,000 to be used for the con
vension of old State . Banks into National
Banks, and $15,000,000 for new banks in the
Southern and other States, which have se
cured thus far the least ratable proportion
of banking capital, the total amount not to
exceed the present limits of $300,000,000.
Section 29 provides that no person, firm
or corporation shall become the debtor of
any bank to an extent exceeding one-tenth
part of its paid-up capital stock, n.uless such
liability is secured by United States collate
rals or bona fide bills of exchange, or of
regidarly made and discounted commercial
paper, actually owned by the party for whom
it, is, discounted; and the officers and direct
ors are made liable for any violation of this
section, and the bank is subject to a penalty
of one thousand dollars.
Section 32 contains the present system of
redemption, with the additional require
ments that the redeeming banks in the seve
ral cities,
provided, shall be required to
redeem their own notes and the notes of
any association, for which it creates a re
deeming agent in the cities of New York,
Philadelphia and B4ton, thus establishing
what has been known as the Suffolk bank
system throughout the country.
Section 34 requires monthly returnsfrom
_each bank to the Controller of the Cur
. rency, to be sworn to by the president and
cashier, , and the quarterly returns to be
verified under oath by a majority of the
board of directors. The detail of the state
ment is also considerably increased.
Section 44 reduces the tax on circulation
from one-half of one per cent. semi-annu
ally to one-fourth of one per cent., and also
takes off the tax on capital, leaving the tax
on deposits as at present, and making no
change in local taxation.
Section 45 requires the Secretary of the
Treasury to withdraw from any Govern
_ went depositary any public money in ex
cess of the amount secured by the amount
of bonds deposited to secure the safe keep
ing of such public money.
• Mr. Julian, from the Conference Commit
tee on the bill for the disposal of the public
lands for homestead actual settlement in
Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas
and Florida, made a report, which was
agreed to.
The House proceeded to the consideration
. of the bill to provide for restoring• to the
States lately in insurrection their fall politi
cal rights.
Mr. Windom addressed the House in sup
_ . port of the bill.
Mr. Harris (Md.) addressed the House in
opposition. He declared that in principal
he now stood as he had stood after the war
was declared; as he had stood in the last
Congress, when he received its crown of
censure; as he had stood in prison and be
fore that infernal instrument of tyranny, a
; court-martial; and as he stood in principle,
no would he stand in practice, whenever oc
casion might require. He declared himself,
an old-line Democrat, believing in the doc
trine of secession; believing that the several
States of the Union have the right to sepa
- rate from it, each acting for itself.
He declared his belief that abuses and
, - usurpations had been practised and threa
tened to so great an extent, by their asso
ciates and partners in this governmental
compact, that the Southern States were
justified in going out; and his further belief,
that by their ordinances of secession they
did go out, and thereby became, to this
"Union, foreign States. These convictions
he could not change, and he did not expect
they would ever be removed. He would
most assuredly proclaim them, and stand
by them as long as a single citizen of the
Confederate States was in chains or. subject
• to penalty for asserting
1:1 them. There was
0 political or personal consideration which
could prompt him to such a desertion.
What! sir, said he, I.' that believe theta
right, I that would have joined them, if the
sovereign State of Maryland had said so, to
-desert them now in their utmost need, when
I can legitimately give them such protec
tion as is in my power honestly to give.
Never! The House would readily conceive,
he continued, that he was adverse to the re
construction policy of the President. An
drew Johnson had been consistent with the
• views oldie late President, with those of the
Republican party, and with his own decla
rations from the time he abandoned the De
mocratic party.
He concurred,-however, with the Presi
dent's veto, and with one paragraph in his
speech of February 22d, that wherein he
proclaimed: "No taxation without repre
sentation." In his view, the Southern se
ceded States bad no right to. representation
• on this - floor or in the Senate. Neither had
- they the right to furnish the country with a
President or Nice President. He, when. he
could not avoid it, acquiesced in de facto
governments and de facto prelaidente; put
he could be expected to cast his vote at the
next electiqn for Andrew Johnson, of Ten
nessee, the status of Tennessee herself must,
be changed completely. .She must ibe ad
mitted into the Union by act• of 4Congress
upon her application to become a member
of it. But no congressional bill for that
purpose could ever receive his vote so long
as the test-oath disgraced the statute-book.
He would do all he could to remove it
and to rescue the noble citizens of the South
from the degradation it imposed, even
though that led to a continuance of the dis
solution of the Union. Under the test oath,
only Southern men who misrepresented
their constituents would be admitted.
"When vice prevails and impious men bear
sway the post of honor is a private station."
Be replied at some length to a speech made
some time since by Mr. Donnelly, of Min
nesota.
Referring to the assassination of Mr. Lin
coln, he said: Suratt was convicted.
Of course she was tried by a court-martial.
Her immediate execution was ordered.
She entreated for four days to enable her to
overcome the shock and the better to pre-
pare her soul to meet her God. Not an
hour, thundered forth the voice, the War
Department I On with, her to the gallows,
the coffin and the grave. The angels of
heaven shall not rejoice over this repentant
sinner. Agents of mercy sought the ear of
higher authority, and probably a more mer
ciful heart. But Preston King was janitor
that day, and they were excluded. Where
-is Preston King? Echo answers "Where?"
She was thus executed speedily, and no
application has been made in
behalf of her, heart-broken daughter
for her remains, these remains are still in
the keeping of the War Department. Pon
tius Pilate delivered the body of Jesus to
Joseph of Arimathea; but a worse than Pon
tius Pilate is here. Let us look now at a
Southern picture. John Brown was arrested
for crime kindred to that of Booth. • He was
in the most formal manner tried, being al
- owed every facility for defence no special
eat oath being urged to prevent the services
of any advocate. He was legally and justly
onvicted to be hung. Between his conic
ion and execution ample time was given
him for the settlement of his wordly affairs,
and for the preparation of his soul for eter
nity. After execution his remains were
placed in a decent coffin and handed over to
his friends.
Returning again to the question of the
right of secession, be said that that doctrine
was born with the Constitution, and became
a ruling principle of the ruling Democratic
party, being inserted in its platform from
1798 to the late war.
Mr. Harris, in speaking, took a stand
near the main aisle, in front of the Speaker's
chair. The anxiety to hear his speech was
so great, his voice being weak and his words
inaudible throughout the hall, members
gathered into the seats and standing places
in his vicinity, where they remained
throughout the delivery of the whole speech,
notwithstanding that the thermometer stood
at eighty-six, and that a general distribution
and use of palm -leaf fans had become neces
sary.
At the conclusion of the speech,
Mr. Le Blond (Ohio) arose and in the
name of the Democratic party dissented
from the views and opinions expressed by
Mr. Harris. The Democratic party did not
believe that Southern States ever were out.
of the Union, or ever had the right to go out
of the Union. In that it differed both with
the gentleman from Maryland and the gen
tleman from Pennsylvania (Mr. Stevens.)
Mr. Dawes (Mass.) rose and said that the
remarks of Mr. Le Blond, touching Mr.
Stevens should not go to the country nnno
noticed; and as that gentleman was not now
in the House, he denied for him that he held
the position that under the Constitution,
the Southern States had any right to go oat
of the Union. He (Mr. Dawes) did not be
lieve with either the gentleman from Penn
sylvania or the gentleman from Maryland
that these States were out of the Union; but
he understood the position of Mr. Stevens
to be, not that they had any right to go out
of the Union, bat that they fought them
selves out, were recognized as belligerents
and were conquered, and that these States
were now conquered territories. In that he
differed from the gentleman from Penn
sylvania.
Mr. Randall (Pa.) remarked that, although
the gentleman from Pennsylvania and the
gentleman from Massachusetts (Mr. Stevens
and Mr. Dawes) might differ in theory,
they seemed to agree in practice, and that
the result of that practice - was to prevent
the Southern States being represented by
loyal men.
Mr. Dawes denied that he had any desire
to keep, by -legislation or otherwise, any
loyal man from representing a loyal con
stituency, and said that no vote of his had
ever contributed to such a result.
Mr. Eldridge expressed a desire to find
out how the- gentleman from Massachu
setts reconciled his theory and his prac
ticeit
Mt. Dawes professed his perfect ability to
reconcile, before his constituents and the
country, every vote he had given with the
theory which he bad advanced on more
than one occasion touching the right of re
presentation of the States lately in. rebellion.
He had not departed one iota from the
principles laid down by him in the Louisi
ana and Virginia election cases in the
Thirty-seventh Congress, and he thought
the House was coming fast to the position
which he had assumed on those occasions,
and which bad been then adopted by large
and controlling majorities. ,
. Messrs. Le Blond and Eldridge were both
on the floor at once, seeking the changes of
catechising the member from Massachu
setts, but
Mr. Dawes, without yielding to either,went
on to aver his belief that it would be better
for the gentleman from Wisconsin (Mr. El
dridge), before catechising him on that point.
to reconcile his own harmony of action with
that of the gentleman from Maryland (Mr.
fl
Mr. Eldridge (Wis.) obtained the oor,
and said that, knowing - the, •views o the
chairman of the Committee on. -Elections
(Mr. Dawes) he had endeavored to persuade
him to offer a proposition to admit members
as they presented themselves from districts
where the representation was based on loy
alty, and where the member elect was loyal,,
and he wondered why the gentleman in his
zeal for the restoration-of the olden times
had net done so. He wondered why loyal
Representatives from Tennessee should be
kept waiting here for seven long months,
while the gentleman from Massachuietts
never once moved or voted for their admis
sion. He (Mr. Eldridge) had from the bot
tom of his heart desired that that peace
which we have conquered by arms [con--
temptnous laughter from the Republican
side] might be consummated by a full re
presentation in Congress. He had offered
to vote and to, guarantee that the members
on his side would vote to admit Southern
Representatives by districts, without.
regaed to anything else. The mem-__
hers on his side believed that the Union was
not destroyed, but that they had saved the
Union—[more contem ptuousilaughter]—and.
that the only need now was for statesmen to
act in conjunction with the army, and the
Union would be entirely restored. If the
genteman from Massachusetts, with his
distinguished ability and great influence,
had moved in the early period of the session
for the admission of loyal Representatives
from loyal districts of the South, the South
ern States might to-day be represented in
Congress. He differed entirely from the
doctrines both of the gentleman from Mary
land (Mr. Harris) and the gentleman from.
Pennsylvania (Mr. Stevens). The South
ern States were not out of- the Union, and
could not get out.
Mr. Dawes, resuming the floor, said that
there had never been a rime during the ses
sion when, if evidence bad been presented
to him of the election of a loyal and true
THE DAILY EVENING BULLETIN; PHILADELPHIA, FRIDAY, JUNE ;15,1866 ' .
man from a loyal and true district, he
would not have voted to admit him to a
seat, and have welcomed him with open
arms,• There never had been a time when
he was not anxious for the opportunity of
making the selection, drawing the distinc
tion between the loyal. Representatives of
loyal districts and those who would present
themselves with blood-red hands, the Rep
resentatives of traitors.
- _
Mr. Randall (Pa.) commented upon
the fact that the of loyal South
ern Repreaentatives were referred, without
debate, to the Reconstruction Committee,
instead of, the ElectionCommitteei of which
the gentleman from M.assachusetts,was the
able and distingniShed .chairman,"and he
asked that gentlemanwhy he had.voted for
such a course?
Mr. Dawes was about to answer, when
Mr. Boutwell (Mass.) rose wilds own side
and inquired of him whether he meant to
say that he was in fay& of the admission of
a loyal representative from any of the eleven
States recently in rebellion, when' he was
satisfied that a majority of the people of that
district were loYal to the Government, with
out regarding the constitution of the State.
And not knowing whether it had established
laws and framed :institutions to secure the
rights of all meri, without regard to race or
color. If that were the •position of his col
league, he, as one member of the House, and
as a citizen of Massachusetts and a Repre
sentative of a portion of her people, ob
ected and diAsented.- ' • '
Mr. Dawes informed . his colleague that,if
he had not been quite so impatient, the an
swer which he had been_about to make to ,
the gentleman from Pennsylvania (Mr.
Eandall) would have rendered it unneces
sary for him to ask the question. He had
regretted exceedingly-that, when Congress
met, the President had not laid before it the
constitutions adopted by the various South
ern States, and that these and all the evi
dence accompanying them had not been re•
ferred to a joint committee, whose duty it
would have been to inquire, Ist, whether
these constitutions were republican in form;
2d, whether they embodied the views of the
loyal people of the States; 3d, whether that
loyal people had the power to maintain that
republican form of government. At the
same time, the credentials of membera-elect
- from those States should have gone to the
Committee on Elections.
Mr: Boutwell (Mass.) asked his colleague"
how a community could possibly be author
ized through any organization to issue cre
dentials that could be regarded by the
House, or any of its committees, as creden
tials, until theright of that community as a
State within the Union had been recognized
by the constituted authorities of the Govern
ment; and, therefore, how it could be con
sistent or proper for one committee of Con
gress to be considering the right of South
Carolina to be represented at all, and an
other Committee of the House to be consid
ering the credentials issued by the so-called
authorities of South Carolina.
Mr. Dawes confessedhis entire agreement
with his colleague in the first part of his
proposition, but he differed with him on the
question of the right of-any of the seceded
States to representation. He believed in
their right to representation from the be
ginning, but he also believed in their inca
pacity. The question with him was, whether
they were capable, not whether they were
entitled. Whenever they should stand up
•`clothed and in their right mind," then they
would be capable of electing representatives
[While this discussion was going on and
enlisting the anxious attention of members,
a storm which had been coming up for some
time burst over the Capitol, darkening tht
air so, much that it became necessary to,
light up the hall with gas.] Ty,
Mr. Raymond (N. Y.) obtained the floor
to speak on the bill to-morrow.
Mr. Delano offered a preamble and reso
lution, which were adopted, reciting that
the present duty on imported wool afford ,
no 'protection to the American wool-grower,
and yields very little revenue to the Go
vernment; that an expectation prevails that
the present duty is to be increased
at the present session of Congress;
that that expectation is causing larg.
importations for future consumption,
whereby tbe revenue of the nation from that
source is being materially affected, and that
the present clip of wool is being purchased
by speculation at prices which do no remu
nerate the wool grower in consequence of
the delayin reforming the present tariff; and
resolving that the Committee of Ways and
Means be requested to give the subject im
mediate attention, and to report at the ear
liest possible day.
On motion of Mr. Spalding (Ohio) the
Senate amendment to the Legislative, Exe
cutive and Judicial appropriation bill was
taken from the Speaker's table and referred
to the Committee on Appropriations.
Mr. Cook (ll 1.) offered a resolution, which
was adopted, calling on the Secretary of
War for information as to the commutation
of rations paid to prisoners of war.
Mr. Darling (N. Y.) presented the petition
of manufacturers, of cork, of New York
and Brooklyn, in favor of the reduction of
the duty on cork wood. Referred to the
Committee on Ways and Means.
Mr. Marvin (N. Y.) presented a petition
from citizens of Montgomery county, N. Y.,
praying that the time for the withdrawal of
the State bank circulation may be extended.
Referred to the Committee on Banking and
Currency. .•
The House, at 41 o'clock adjourned.
Frain Harrisburg.
HARRISBURG, Tune 14.—Governor Curtin
and State Treasurer Kemble left for Wash
ington this morning, at the summons of the ,
Treasurer of the United States, to receipt for
the three-quarters of a million of dollars to
be paid to the State of Pennsylvania by the
United States. As an', evidence of the cor
rectness of the account submitted to the na
tional authorities by . State Treasurer
Kemble, it is only fair to make the fact
known that the United States Treasurer has
'deducted but six hundred and seventy dol
lars from the same. The. Government at
!Washington also claims a further reduction
to' meet the revenue tax. '
Mr. Charles R. Colburn has been reap
pointed Superintendent of Common Schools._
He will continue in office until some time
before the expiration of the term of Gover
nor Curtin, when Professor,Wickersham,
of the State Normal School at
Lancaster county, will take his place. This
arrangement is the result of an agreement
made in the moat cordial feeling between
Messrs. Colburn and Wickersham, after the,
Governor had signified his intention to re
appoint Mr. Colburn.
After the 17. S. Senate had adopted the
Constitutional Amendment just concurred
in by the House of Representatives, Gover
nor Curtin addressed a circular letter to the.
Executives of the different loyal States, sug
gesting the propriety of unison in' action in
calling together the several Legislatures for
'flits _ratification of that amendment. It is
now tinderstood that such uniform' action
will' be had, and that before the adjourn
ment of - Copgress the 'ratification of the
amendment will be made in all 'the loyal
States. Proclamations will beissued by the
different Governors as soon as`they, are offi-,
cially informed of the action of Congress.
