JCXXXXth CONGRESS-Second Session pleatosß of/ves tkbdav's pboceepings,'] ; Sbkatjb.—Mr. Pomeroy (Kansas) Intro .ducedu bill to secure the speedy construc tion ol the Union Paaifio Railroad (southern branoh) and telegraph lines, and to secure to the government the use of the same for xbilitary and postal purposes. It provides for the issue of six per cent, bonds of $l,OOO each, to run twenty years, on the comple tion of eaoh twenty consecutive miles of he road, at the. rate of sixteen such bonds per mile. , The road is to run by way pf Port Riley’and Port Smith, the valley of the Neosho, Grand and Arkansas rivers. Mr. Wilson (Mass.) presented the follow - ing joint resolution; authorizing the Presi dent of the United States to prevent the in fliction of cofporeal punishment in the States lately in rebellion: WA«rea» t ahe practice of.lßfllctlng corporealpnnluh. ment for off. nces aealnst laws ana municipal i eeula llora Is baibaro .s m character and deciding In prac “OK and thereat. In the present nmettlea state ot civil afiairs in the states lately In rebellion, the freed men, In their helpltssness, are liable to He subjected to this barbarous and degrading punishment, which would. In the exislldg condition of affairs, endanger social codes and all Industrial interests: therefore, be it Hetolved, That the President of the united States be and he Is hereby authorized and directed to Instruct the offlceis of .the army and navy and of the Freed men a finreau to prohibit and prevent the Infliction of corporeal punishment for any crimes, misdemeanors or offerees by any pretendea civil authority In anv , State lately In rebellion until thedyfl government or Such. State shall have been reorganize.!, ratified and guaranteed by the Congress of the United s.ates' Mr. Baulsbury (Bel.) inquired if the above r was introduced for consideration l of for re ference at this time. Mr. Wilson said he'wished simply to have it referred., - Mr. Johnson (Md.) said there is no ohieb tien to its reference. ' The resolution was referred to the Judici ary Committee. Mr. Henderson (Mo.) offered.a resolution, Which he said was made necessary by-a des patch from Gov. Fletcher, that the President be requested to inform the Senate whether since the Ist of December, 1866, he has caused troops in the service of the United States to be marched into the interior of Missouri for any purpose, and if so, to indi cate the reasons for such orders, and whe ther they were issued on application of the —Governor or Legislature of said State. Mr. Henderson, by request of several Senators, read the despatch of Gov. Fietch or. It asserts that General Grant has sent troops' to Lexington, ■ j Mo., and protests against such interference, unless asked for by th,e Governor himself,and asks Congress if the President does not withdraw the troops, to require him to do so. Mr. Davis (Ky.) said the President had an unquestioned right to.march the troops of the United States into any State of the Union. Mr. Henderson said the objection was that the troops had been sent for the pur pose of interfering in the enforcement of State laws. He could not state alt the facts for he had no further news on the subject than the mere announcement in the Go vernor’s despatch. He would probably re ceive a letter on the subject, giving particu lars, in a few days. The resolution was adopted. The bill to admit Nebraska was taken up. The question was upon Mr. Hendrick’s motion to postpone further consideration of the bill until the seventh of Januarv next.. . .. . -,. Mr. Edmunds (Yt.) took the floor in sup port of the amendment of ML Brown (Mo!) attaching the condition of impartial suf frage upon the admission of the State. He maintained that Congress had the right to make conditions precedent to the'admission ofthe State, and that it would be retrogra ding from, the principle of equal rights as serted in the District Suffrage bill to permit a hew coming State to deny suffrage‘on ac count of color. Mr. Wade (Ohio) denied that in advo cating this bill he was less the advocate of free principles than he had been in former days. He regarded this bill as a help and ‘ not a hindrance to free principles. Mr. Edmunds asked Mr. Wade if he be lieved a constitution restricting to white persons was just or right, Mr. Watfesaid he-had always been the advocate of impartial suffrage. He believed • in it now as much' as ever; but he did not believe in losing the substance to grasp at a shadow. Mr. Pomeroy gave the reasons why he should vote against Mr. Brown’s amend ment, and for the bill. He felt bound, he said, to act in good faith to that State, and conld exact no conditions now that were not in the enabling act. Mr.; Howard (Mich.) replied to the speech . of Mr. Edmunds, deny ing the right of Con gress to attach the conditions of Mr. Brown’s amendment. . At 2.45 P. M.,uo vote having been taken on the pending bills or amendment, Mr. Grimes asEed that an Executive ses sion be held. Mr. Buckalew (Pa.), who had the floor, declined to yield, and proceeded to speak at length upon the bill and amendments, dwelling mainly npon topics already dis cussed in the coarse of the debate, the smallness of population, etc. Mr. Sprague (B. L) followed Mr. Bucka lew in a written speech, opposing the bill. , Mr. Saulsbury (Bel.), at. 4 jp. M., moved that the Senate adjourn, -but with drew that motion for.an Executive session, -which was held, and the Senate soon after adjourned to meet on Thursday, January -3d* 1867. House.— -The House went into Committee of the Whole on the State Of the Union. Mr. Welker (O.) in the chair, oh the President’s annual Message. Mr. Hise (Ky.) resumed the argument against the power of Congress to territorial ize the lately rebellious States.. Mr. Hise having ÜBed up the second hour assigned to him, was given an additional half hour; When, the hammer fell at the closeof that half hour, he was about to narrate an illus trative anecdote, which had to remain un told. Mr. Lawrence (O.) followed, with an ar gument in support of his proposition to re? once the salaries of Senators and members of Congress. He said he had introduced and would urge the passage of two bills,one to repeal the act of July last, increasing salaries, so as to restore the salary to what it was before the increase, but leaving the mileage reduced one-half. The other to re duce the mileage still lower—to ten cents per mile. They were introduced separately so that objections to either might not be urged to defeat the other. He gave a detailed estimate of the cost and saving to the treas ury,and said the Mileage bill woald save an nually §125,000. With the present number of members, if Congress took large salaries it i could not consistently economise in other departments, bo that all all the expenses of the government were affected by this. Jndge Story had declared that the most wholesome lessons to be taught in republics are that men shouldlearn suitable economy: . and prudence in their private affairs. It was a great question, affecting private as well as public interests and morals. The Constitution denied the English rule which gives no pay ,to members of parlia ment. But large salaries' were not: necessary, as sometimes, urged to pre-l vent corruption. The corrective fori tbis was to be found in thevirtue and intel ligence of the people. Adequate talent could; be secured for all offices ,on. moderate sala-' ■rib and this was attested by the fact thatP candidates were really more numerous than; offices. - The true mode of compensation; was by per diem wages, as the practice was lor the lirst sixty-six years: oft thegovern-: • *?***£, .fexeepjcfor the Fourteenth' Congress, . A salary had a tendency rather to induce a neglect of business, while -a per diem se curedit.,3ut.be bad not Sought to revive this, becahse be deemed it impossible now.; -The annual record of 1864 showed the ave- Jage salaries of the highest j udges of t wen ty- four of the States to be $2,600,-and in 20? ■ collection diStrictslessthauhalf the incomes assessed-for taxation reached $3.000, while , by far the largest number: of ail is touch less. Official and unofficial salaries gene rally would prove the justice of his billj The law of JuJy sbouldbe repealed,because it was passed by being coupled with another provision giving bounties to soldiers. The House twice voted almost, unanimously against an increase of salaries. It was car md through in the Senate with only two Democratic voles against it; and ,in the House with only seven Democratic votes against it, and with only thirty-five Repub lican votes in its favor and forty-three against it. , The Secretary ofthe Treasury Hasrecom mended a reduction of the greenback cur rency, with a view to a reduction of prices. He opposed any material reduction of the currency now, as it would add to our ntt tiozial debt,increase its burden,and diminish our means of paying it; that while this scheme was urged it was no time to be in creasing salaries. The salaries of assessors, collectors, and many officers were, some of , them now too high in comparison with the ai< * B labor and employments gene- TSai?’ JBe average salaries of assessors for 1865 and 1866 were over four thousand dol kps. He would votefor no increase of ex penses except only what the demanded boun nesfor allthesoldiera of the republic, the hundred days’ men of Ohio included. Mr. Randall (Pa.) interrupted Mr. Law fence, to ask 'whether he knew of 8. single memberwhohad npt taken his increased pay? ' Mr, Lawrence replied that he did not. Mr. .Maynard (Term.) felt it due to himself to say that he had not taken the increased compensation till after the matter had gone before ihe great body of the American peo ple, and after he had seen a gentleman who had taken it (meaning Mr. Randall) return ed with, greatunanimity. Mr. Randall (Pa,) sain he was glad that the gentleman (Mr. Maynard) and himself were both in accord with the American people on that particular point. [Laughter.! Mr. Cobb (Wis.) stated that he had voted against the increase of compensation, and wouldhave defeated it if he could. He be lieved that it was wrong; that it was dis honest; or, correcting himself; that it would have been dishonest if he had voted for it. • Mr. Ashley (Ohio) remarked, laughingly, that he had been; about calling the gentle man to order. Mr. Cobb thanked the gentleman. He repeated that he had voted against the in creased compensation, and had drawn no part of it. He should wait a little longer than the gentleman from Tennessee (Mr. Maynard) had waited, and until Congress should, by its non-action or its action, reite rate in a more deliberate manner its wisn in the matter. . - Mr, Maynard (Tenn.) asked whether the gentleman (Mr. Cobb) appealed from the decision of the people to this body? , Mr. Cobh did not think that the people had endorsed that setion of Congress. On the contrary,he had found it thegreatest embar rassment against which he had to contend in the recent canvass. He asked the gen man from Ohio (Mr. Lawrence) whether he had drawn his extra compensation ? Mr. Lawrence thought that if the ques tion of extra compensation had been the only question before the people at the last canvass, the members who voted for it would have been buried ten thousand fathoms deep. There never had been a bill passed increasing the compensation of mem bers that had not been disapproved by the people. He confessed that he" had received his extra compensation. Mr.Driggs (Mich.) inquired facetiously whether the gentleman bad felt bad when he received it. [Laughter.] Mr. Lawrence did not perceive the perti nency of the question. He had no doubt but that the gentleman from Michigan (Mr. Diiggs) felt very good when he received his. Mr. Drigga-I did. [Peals oflaughter.] Mr. Hill said he had understood Mr Lawrence to hold that the Constitution re quired members to receive compensation* that it was a part of their duty. He desired .•to know whether the gentleman from.Wis ronain (Mr. Cobh), by failing to perform that duty, bad subjected himself to expul sion. [Laughter.] * Mr. Lawrence replied thathe wasin favor ofthe impeachment of some officers of the Government, hut would reserve his opinion as to whether a member ought to be ex pelled for the reason assigned by the gentle man from Wisconsin. Mr. Cobb could not get out of the matter by. refusing to draw ' bis extra compensation, as it stood'to his credit with the seargant-at-arms, and could be drawn'out, in case of death, by his ad ministrators. The only effectual mode was to draw the money and pay it into the con science fund. Mr. Hill asked Mr. Lawrence, torment mgly, whether he had paid his back to the conscience fund? [Laughter.] Mr. Lawrence replied that he had not, and did not Intend to, unless required to do it by law. If a bill tor that purpose were introduced and should be found practi caßle, he would vote for it, and comply WlUl'lti | Mr. Driggs said that the question had been made a direct issue in hisdistriot, and be had declared that he voted for it because he thought that if §3,000 compensation was right before the war; it is certainly right hfiw,.when it cost twice, as much to live; His people had endorsed that view and had given him an increased majority. H . ar ding (HI.) related his experience as differing from that bf Mr. Driggs. He had voted against the conference report equalizing soldier’s bounties, because that measure Bad been associated in the report with the obnoxious measure increasing the pay of members, and hia constituents, thsugh deeply interested in favor of the in crease of bounties, had indorsed his action and quadrupled his majority. It therefore appeared that the medicine acted differently in different places. [Laughter,] . ; Mr. Grlnbell (N. Y.) obtained the floor,! and outlined the argument which Be pro posed to make when he should next addrean the committee. ; The committee then rose, and the Speaker* resumed the Chair. 1 The Speaker presented Executive docu ments as follows: . , Message from the President in reply to House resolution of December 4th, reauest-i mg information relative to the attempts of Santa Anna or Ortega to organize armed expeditions within the United States for the purpose of overthrowing the national go vernment of the Republic of Mexico, trans- ! milting a report from the Secretary of State. 1 Referred to the Committee on Foreign Af fairs. 1 , ■!

Stevens, Patter- 1 We'ker Bontwell, Moulton, Ashley (Nevada), and Hubbeil (N, Y.) y Mr. O’Neill presenteda petition of seamen, hremen, coal-passers and marines, who en tered the service on and after February 15 1861; asking for a .bounty of §lOO per an-: iHim, qi J § p 3 per month for * eneh months services; iffi bounties received afteirJuly 1; 1864 to be deducted. Un motion of Mr. Julian, the Seleott Com mittee on Direct Tax and • Forfeited an •• Abandoned Lands in the late rebel State' ae instructed to inquire whether the regis ters or receivers of public land C|ffi6es; in any of such States had hindered or obstructed the. execution of the Homestead aot, and whether any person, white or colored, who waß entitled to the benefit of such act, had been wrongfully prevented from availing himself thereof by any officer or agent of the government, or by any person whom soever. On motion of Mr. Spalding the Committee on 'Ways and Means was instructed to in quire into the expediency of exempting from tariff duties timber and lumber fdr ship building, and firewood for steamers .navigating the Western lakes and rivers, when imported by the party using it for sncb purposes. Mr. Hill introduced a bill for the relief of the Agricultural Society of Bartholomew county, Indiana.. Read twice and referred to the Committee on Claims.
