So Mii& the nations when- they saw*
True such were not Columbia’s.fears;
Her proud bird scorns all craven tears;
And as the ripening conflict nears,
Rhe calls her gallant eons to War—
B Their answer, Cheers!
1 -- " V ' ,: V. r
With banners proud, uplifted high,
And rreedom for their battle-cry,
They are resolved to “do or die.”
The rebels, too, are brave and bold;
Ere long they fly.
Bnt not until ft the light,
That God’s own hind is in the fight,
Te rescue by His sovereign might
A race enslaved, and set them free—
Their lawful right.

Meanwhile disasters like a,cl ond
Bain thick upon us, and as loud.
Areiieard the boasts or traitors proud—
Proud of their crime unparalleled. ,
A hell-bound crowd.
... '• VIH.
At length throughiblQod theEesson learned,
A Truth-the nation long had spurned,
Was in the pnblic conscience burned.
The long-due Freedom was proclaimed,
Our fortunes turned.

Eternal justice cannot fail,
Though long delayed, it will prevail
O’er battled legions clad In mail.
Decrees of Heaven mnst be obeyed.
Though all things fail.
The patriarch Abraham this forgot,
When journeying with his kinsman hot;
But God's decree it altered not..
The patriarch was blest in lull,
“Parted from Lot.

So be who bo# the patriarch’s name—
The nation’s Hope, ’mid sword ana flame—
Our Abraham confessed his blame.
Then, ‘‘letting the oppressed go free,
flo purged our shame.
XII.
Until that hour the ship of State
Keeled blindly o’er the waves of fate,-
The sport and prey of rebel hate.
Thank God! the appointed rescue came,
And not too late.

Well nigh had ’frighted Freedom come
To know a world without a home,
A temple shattered to its dome,
And o f cr the earth, without a shrine,
Ever to roam.

Bnt when Emancipation pealed.
The millions who were in the field
Felt that the Rebel cause was sealed.
The oppressed of other lands rejoiced;
* The crowned heads reeled,
Thfe men who boast the Mayflower stock,
Firm as their storied Plymouth Rock,
With lion hearts withstood the shock
Of traitor hordes—fell birds of prey;
, An evil flock.

The lessons of defeat oft learned
Bv Union men, whose hearts had burned
For victory, were here, with usury,
To foes returned.

The nation’s heart no longer bleeds,
(Save for her martyred braves.) Her needs
Are all supplied In him who leads—
The grandest soldier of bis time;
The man of deeds,

With iron will and steady hand,
With Lincoln given to save the land,
No nobler names in history stand,
Ancient or modem, in peace or war;
But few as grand.
Four bloody years of war have ceased,
Four million slaves have been released,
Who through lon*g centuries were fleeced

- Their chains increased.

Fort Sumter’s stain has been redeemed,
The dear old flag that loug had streamed
Above Us battlements, and seemed -
In deadly peril when it fell.
So only fibemed.
Few brighter days have blessed the world,
Than that which rebels downward hurled
When Sumter’s flag anew unfurled—
The self-same day on which it fell,
Four years before.

THE CASE Ol CHARLES «. PAGE.
The ,foliowing;debate in the. House of Re
presentatives, taken from the Congressional
Globe, will be found to be extremely in
teresting:
CHARLES G. rAGE.
Mr. Myers, from the Committee on Patents,
reported, tyitto; recommendation that the
.same do pass,, a bill (H. R. No. .731) to au
thoriito Charles OVafton,Page to, apply for and
repeiye a patent; which .was ,! read ? a first ana
second time. . ■ .... .
The question was upon ordering the Dili to
be engrossed and read a third time.
The bill was read at length. It autho
rises the Commissioner of Patents to receive,
and entertain a renewal of the application ot
Charles Grafton Page, for letters patent for
his induction apparatus and circuit breakers,
now on-file in the United States' Patent Office,
including therewith his'teircuit breakers de
scribed bybim prior to said application and
if the Commissioner shall, adjudge said Page
to he the firstlnventor thereof he shaU issue
a patent to himi which shall be vahd, not
withstanding said Page’s invention may have
been described or in use prior to said
tion, and notwithstanding the fact that saia
Pageds now an examiner in the Unitea
States Patent Office; provided, .that any per
son in possession of said apparatus prior to
the date of said patent shall possess the right
to use and vend to others to use the saw spe
cific apparatus in his possession, Without lia
bility to the inventor or patentee, or any
other person interested in said invention or
patent therefor.
Mr Myers. Mr. Speaker, accompanying
the bill which has just been read there is a
very full report, with ample references to
authorities and the evidence taken by the
Committee, and with drawings also ot the
invention in question. But, as this report
covers seven closely printed pages, I do not
propose to have any portion of it read, unless,
Rafter the statement I am about to make, the
reading should be demanded by the House.
Mr. Washbume (111. ) I desire to have the
report read. , ■ .
Mr. Myers. Very well. I desire to make
my statement first; and I think after that
statement my friend will withdraw the de
mand. I will state as briefly as may be, m
order to avoid consumption of time in read
. ing the report, the reasons why the Commit
tee oil Patents unanimously favor the mea
sure which has been reported.
The bill is to protect the rights of an Amer
ican inventor against the claims to originality
unjtmtly and mistakenly awarded to a for
eigner by the high authority of a foreign
Power. It allows Dr. Charles G. Page,
formerly of Salem", Massachusetts, and for
many years an examiner in the Patent Office,
to apply for and receive a patent for his in-
Ouciion coil, if -the Commissioner of Fat
ents shall adjudge him to be the first inventor j
of it; that is all. On its face the bill
is a private one; but its passage, espe
cially at this time, should be a matter of
national pride, as it will be of national
interest. , 1 ’ !
Dr. Page was the first to develop and ap
ply the principles of inductive electricity in a
practical workingmachine for the production
of effects of the greatest value in a medical
and scientific point of view. No one before
him had suggested its embodiment in a den
nite form, aa a remedy or tor philosophical
i illustration. The particulars of this scientific
j invention would scarcely be interesting at the
| present time, and are not necessary for the
| pui poses of this bill. A statement ot the
case will be sufficient. It is, however, well
to mention here, in order that it may go
upon ihe record, that the invention ot
Dr. Page embraces three' elements
never before brought into connec
tion and practice. The first is the compound
magnet or bundle of wires, to augment, the
intensity of the induced current of electricity
by the magnetization it undergoes. The
second consists of the separate coils of wire
to produce greater insulation between the pri
mary coil of coarse wire and the outer or in
duction coil of fine wire, from which the
spaik is taken and light exhibited. Thirdly,
the several mechanical contrivances; first, a
rasp; second, the mercury and spur-wheel;
third, an interrupter or automatic' vibrating
break-piece to interrupt the galvanic current
and create the induced current; all known as
the induction coil. That is all I propose to say
on that point.
Many years ago, as early as 1838 -to 1842
Dr; Page exhibited this apparatus in colleges
using it for igniting gunpowder, lighting
vacuum tubes, charging Leyden jars, and for
medical effects. In the year 1852 the empe
ror of the French offered a prize, of 50,000
francs to be given after five years to the
author of the moßt important discovery and
application relating to electricity. Five years
elapsed,_and no one was adjudged worthy of
this great prize. The time was extended; and
in the year 1801 a commission of thirteen
scientific men, of whom the celebrated Du
mas was president, reported that a man by
the name of Rubmkorff was entitled
to the piize, being the inventor of what
is now known as “the Rubmkorff coil.”
Now, Mr. Speaker, the Committee en
Patents, after close investigation, find that
the Ruhmkorff coil is substantially, identical
with, and a copy of, Dr. Page’s invention.
Thuß to a foreigner; as I have said, by the
high authority of a foreign power,is adjudged
the merit of this invention. The identity
once established, the importance of the in
vention will be best understood when I state
the importance which has been ascribed to
it in Europe. Dumas and the commission,
in their report, say,in speaking of Rubmkorff
and his character:
“M. Ruhmkorff will ever remain the type
of his class, a model for the numerous in
telligent workmen who fill the higher order
of workshops of Paris. To those who, like
him, know how to control their desires and
faithfully strive for perfection in work and
clearness in conceptions* who behd their
attention to one object and labor untiringly
until a high superiority is gained and also tor
themselves the satisfactions of a ripe age, the
compensation for the services and privations
of youth will hot he lacking in a country
where more than ever merit finds recom
pense.”
I claim, Mr. Speaker, that this country will
he no IeBS eager than France to reward so
important a discovery. The report proceeds,
and 1 call the attention of the House to this
sentence*
“Since 1851 M. Ruhmkorfl’ has devoted
himßelf to the,construction and'perfection. of
hiß apparatus, and he has ended by securing
for it his own name,' by giving it a scientific
value which no one contests, and by render
ing it of so great power as to become a means
of numerous practical applications.”
This act directs that it 'the Commissioner of
Patents finds what the committee report to
he true, that Dr. Page is the-real inventor, he
is worthy of a patent. Now, in his old age,
feeble and in bad health, let him, in declipr-,
ing years, receive the national award which,
bis discovery deservess at ,our hands, and
what has been known as the .Ruhrakorff coil
become, as it should, the “Page induction'
coil." While we reward merit in„lhis,way
and make his name historic we at the same

tonicf further. Only
rec&pt'Of Count du Mon|fe»rk ;of four
hundred :pages, issued at Pam, devoted 'to
the Ruhmkoiffcoil, and describing it aa one
of the most important discoveries ever nude
known to the world-one wMch we fiud by
theSciehtlflohienof England,lddhus Stur
geon and Golding Bird, by the testimony of
the best of the savana in this country, and by
the examination of Ruhmkorffa own de
scription, to belong to Dr. Page-I have,
stated the niattef fully, and I hope the. gen
tleman from Illinois will not insist on the
time of the House being consumed with the
reading of the report '
The'bill; Bir, doefi not propose totake one
dollar from the Treasury, or to infringe upon
the tights of a single man. We had hetore
us the testimony of the : chief, scientific men
of this country who construct this apparatus,
and they desire us to give this pateut to Dr.
Page, who they say is justly entitled to it.
Nor has Dr. Page slept upon his rights; he
made application before, but because of his
being sn examiner in the Patent Office he was
disqualified under, theact.of 183 G, and. the
application rejected/ -The invention did .not
go into public use “with his knowledge and
consent.” '■■■■■
Mr. Upson—l have noticed by the reading
of the bill that it is made compulsory on the
Commissioner to issud this, patent."
Mr. Myers—No, sir. ,
Mr. Upson—lt says, “shall issue this
patent.” . ,■ _ ■
• Mr. Myer3—No, sir. If he finds Dr. Page
to be the first inventor, then he is to issue the
patent. He is td‘institute an investigation
iDto the facts, and if he finds them as the
committee report them then he is to issae a
patent. ~ „
Mr. Oflllinois—l demand the
reading of the report
The report was read.
Mr. Myers demanded; the previous ques
tion. '
The House divided; and there were—ayes
C 4, noes 10, no quorum voting.
The Speaker ordered tellers; and ap
pointed Mr. Myers and Mr. Washburne,of Il
linois.
The House again divided; and the tellers
reported—ayes 86, noes 10.
So the previous question was seconded.
The main question was then ordered to be
PU Tbe bill was ordered to be engrossed and
read a third time; and being engrossed, it was
accordingly read the third time. _
Mr. Myers—l believe this matter is fully
understood. It is a question of national in
terest, and I hope there will not be one vote
against it. , , ,
Mr. Washbume, of Illinois, demanded tbe
yeas and nays.
The yeas and nays were not ordered.
The bill was passed.
Mr. Myers moved to reconsider the vote
by which the bill was passed.; and also
moved that the motion to reconsider be laid
on the table.
The latter motion was agreed to.

CONCIXSION OF YESTERDAY’S PROCEEDINGS.
Afternoon Session. —The report of the
Business Committee was read by the Chan-
man. • , , ~ r ,
AmoDg the resolutions adopted are the lol
loping: . .
Resolved, That we repeat.our unßhaken
confidence in and adherence to the fundamen
tal principles of the temperance reform, as
stated by the Convention that assembled m
Harrisburg on the 20th and 27th days of Feb
ruary, 18ii7, viz.: .
That the use of any kind of intoxicating
drinks, as a beverage, tends to produce habits
of in'emperance, and to foster vice 3, crimes
and disorders; that the drinking usages of
society present a most formidable barrier to
the progressof education, religion and true
civilization; that, therefore, it is the duty of
all ministers, teachers and moralists, to lend
their aid to temperance reform by inculcating
the practice of total abstinence from intoxi
cating drinks; that it is the solemn duty of
parents, sabbath-school teachers and minis
ter s\o render their utmost aid in preserving
! the youth of the Commonwealth from
! the snares and contaminations of the
i di in king ‘custom; that the temperance
! movement is a Christian movement, and we
‘ invoke the increased and continued services
i of Christian ministers and Christian profes
i sor's; that it is the supply of intoxicating
! liquors that largely creates the demand ; and
i to the temptation "offered by the free sale of
! liquors at tavern bars, ; beer saloons and
I restaurants is to be traced nine-tenths of the
drunkenness, crime, pauperism, insanity and
casualties of the country ; that against these
■people should be protected by the arm of the
government; that license laws give no pro
tection to many, but confer freedom, ap
parent morality, and respectability to the
! truffle, and deny protection to many; that it
!is the right ‘ and duty of. the people,
i in self-defence, by appropriate- legislation,
1 to bring the traffic to an end; that the
■ i whole history of license legislation has
j proved impotent to restrain the traffic, or
diminish the evils of intemperance in any
! considerable degree; that we can never con
sent to aßy stem which shall give the legal
sanction of the State to a business so baneful
in its tendencies, and so prejudicial to the
best interests of the people; thaV prohibitive
legislation is the only safe legislation in prin
i ciple, and the only legislation which can be
; enforced in practice;; that the failure of the
present system, after a century of trial makes
it manifest that the timehaß fully come when
i all efforts to regulate the traffic should be at
i I once and forever abandoned.
Resolved, That the present attitude of the
temperance cause in this State, and the com
bined and unwearied opposition of its adver
saries, demand of all friends of temperance
decision and unanimity in counsel,energy and
efficiency in action; and, as the success of our
efforts must result mainly from an enlightened
popular sentiment, stronger efforts than ever
are demanded to awaken an earnest zeal
throughout the State for the cure of the evils
the liquor traffic everywhere inflicts.
. Resolved, That special efforts should
be made.in home circles, in Sabbath and
public schools, to instruct the young as to
the poisonous and destructive influence of
alcoholic liquors upon the human body,
mind - and character, even when used in
quantities generally regarded as moderate;
and that parents and teachers who fail' thus
to instruct them will be chargeable with no
small share of mischief thoSe, com--
mitted to their care ultimately become vicr
Urns of intemperance and vices usually asso
ciated with it.' ■
Resolved, That whatever business or trade
is injurious :hnd dangerous to the health,
comfort or property of individuals or the pub
lic, should be absolutely prohibited as a com
mon nuisance. This is the indispensable rple
of protection which it is the right and duty
of every community to adopt; hence, gaming
homes,’houses of ill-fame and all business
acknowledged U> be injurious to'the public
gre prohibited. Traffic in liquor Is an acknoW?
jedged evil in its results, and hence should be
-prohibited, d

whole revenue ■ received by: the SUte lor
licenses for the, manufacture and sale of liquors
in 1867, was but $317,712 75, as reported by
the Auditor-General, while it appears from
the report of the Citizens’ Association that it
costs the people .directly,- without computing
the indirect coat, the sum of $2..259,010 GO to
support criminals and paupers made by such
traffic, the people are called upon to consider
whether they are not paying very dear for
their whistle.
Resolved , That it is vam to hope to secure
proper legislation, or the execution ot proper
laws,unless the friends of temperance shall
determine to cast their ballots only for the
friends of such legislation, that duty, interest
and consistency plainly calls upon terhperance
men to use the ballot for temperance—with
their political party if they cah, against it if
they must.
After a lengthy debate on the last resolu
tion, it was agreed to order the ope. ation of
the previous question, various amendments
being voted down. Adjourned to nine o’clock
this morning.
Tlie Southern Pacific It ui I way—T he
I liirty-Flttli Parullel lloiitc,
General Palmer, the Treasurer of the Kan
sas Pacific Railway, has been exploring a
route to the Pacific by the thirty-fifth paral
lel of latitude, and writes as follows from
Arizona: „ „
“As directed by the President I have or
dered the discontinuance of the Gila surveys,
being not only satisfied of the practicability
of the thirty-fifth parallel, but convinced that,
it is the best across the continent. It is rarely
that we have been obliged to resort to the
maximum grade permitted by Congress. The
climate is unexceptional on the mountains—
rather uncomfortable from the warmth
in this valley; but it will be a little change,
for the passengers to eat watermelons
at Christmas time. The Mojave Indians are
J selling them around the tort now, and I saw
some tomatoes getting ripe on perfectly green
vines on the river bank yesterday. We shall
not be troubled with snow on the San Fran
cisco mountain, the highest summit we reach,
in my opinion, as much as the Pennsylvania
Railroad is in crossing the Alleghanies; and
for a summer and late autumn resort, I do
not believe there is a finer spot on the conti
nent than ‘President’s Park’ at that summit.
The fagged out people of the Mississippi Val
ley will come up here, 7,-too feet above
the ocean, and renew health and spirits
by breathing the purest air in the most de
lightful climate, amidst the mogt striking
mountain scenery probably in America. If
they choose to, they can ride five thousand
feet higher on the back of a ‘burro,’ to the.
summit of the , old volcano, aQd fiad put
there, if thev can, where all the lava and
ashes came from which are strewn , around.
In the Park the grass is very rich, the soil
black, and capable of raising almost every
thing but corn. The base of "San Francisco
mountain is covered with little parks of a
similar character, occupying intervals in the
at forest of pines.
‘Taking a practical view of the subject,
we shall have a large passenger business to
this Elysium, and as the road runs for over
one hundred miles through, or dose to, this
forest, our lumber business, for the.supply of
the valleys and mining districts, will proba
bly be good. There is another such forest on :
Sierra Madre, in New Mexico, this side of ,
Wingate, but not equal to San Francisco. j
“1 have been quite rejoiced at finding such
an excellenljdescent to the Colorado Valley.
There was tnree thousand feet to come down, 5
but we found a valley leading from the
second range back to the river, and turning
the south end of the first, or river range,
which has an almost uniforna descent for filty
miles. For one hundred miles east of this
river there is no opportunity of grading,if one ■■■
wanted to, as the surface is gradual, with
light grades, except for three or four mile 3, in
crossing a divide to reach the Wallapi Val
ley, where work something like that at Hir
ker will be required, and perhaps the maxi
mum grade for four miles. But the one
hundred miles should be completed in the
first year, as pine timber exists within fifteen
miles, on the Wallapi range, for cross-ties, in
abundance. Our irom-wfil cost about as
much here as it has been doing in Kansas,
unless we can reduce it by owning the boats.
'*l hope we shall obtain the subsidy next
spring. If we do, the completed road can
be run over in four years from to-day. It
would be sheer laziness that would prevent it.

transmit iroe of-postage Certain certificates of
thanks to soldiers of that State.
, A eqbstitutejhad.becn Asserted making the bill
general, to apply fc all States. The amendment
was adopted.
Mr. Sanlsbwy said/ of conn?, this had
nothing to do with the New Hampshire elec
tion. He was glad the Senate ■ h«f awakened
to a reallzing eensoof the servlces of our soldiers,
who had been greatly wronged heretofore in not
being allowed W New Hampshire to receive
' each certificates free of expense. The hill was

Mr. Momll (Vt.) offered resolutions directing

appropriating therefor
• certain rooms In the Senate wine of the Capitol.
Hesald they were nearly Identical with resolu
tlons wt;the subject offered by the late Senator
Foote four or five years ago, and there was now
no Hbrary where Senators could get access to
complete sets of documents of the Senate. Re
ferred to the Committee on the Llbmiy..
On motion of Mr. Wilson, the Senate'took Up
. and passed a bill la reduce the expenses of the

House. '
On moUon of Mr. Wilson, the bill to provide
for a gradual reduction of the military forces and
to discontinue certain unnecessary grades
therein (heretofore published) was taken up and
paFsed.
The special order, the resolution to admit Mr.
Thomas, Senator elect from Maryland, was
taken up.

debate, but yielded to Mr. Trumbull, who desired
to answer some remarks made on his former
speech. • -■ -- ,

_The special order, the resolution to admit Mr.
■ Thomas, Senator elect from Maryland, was taken up.
Mr. Johnson, of Maryland, had the floor to close
the debate, but yielded to Mr. Tkumrl'll, who desired
to answer some remarks made on Ms former speech.
In the course of debate he read from the report of
the commutes on the subject, to show that they had
found nothing against the admission, If not contained
in the matter connected with his son; yet Senators
baaed their objections on entirely different grounds;
some of them members of the committeo who signed
that report. The Senate was sitting ’to decide the
case under the law and the facie; it was not a n action
whether Mr. Thomas had sympathized with the re
beli(pn, but whether he was the.regalariy -ouaiiaed
teprostMative of the State of Maryland.
' ,?*; (Mr. Trumbull) had not selected him." He re
plied to. Hr. Edmonds’ comments on his defense of
Mr. Thomas and his son, and hia denunciation of
them eatialtors, and said this was not tho place for
each denunciation. He (Mr. Tram ball) claimed to
be as loyal as any Senator. No had as great an abhor
rence of treason aa any one, bnt did that prevent the
Senator from Maryland being entitled to hla seat * If
that Senator was shown to be a traitor, he could be
kept out, but he was to be kopt out not by dodama
tion, bnt on proof of tacts in the case.
Mr. Trumbull again discussed the various charges
against Mr. Thomas. He denied that warexistsdat
the time Mr. Thomas resigned, as claimed by Mr
Howard. Ifso.it was only on ene side, and he re
ferred to the decision of the Bupreme Court in the
prize cases, where, he said, no judge claimed that
war existed until the. firing on. Fort Sumter; and yet
the Senator said flagrant war existed.
Mr. Diukr, of Missouri, e&ld it was flagrant enough
on one aide.
Mr. Tbvuhvll continued, claiming. In the course of
hla remark*, that .the act of Mr Thomas in resigning
the Treasury Department to General Dlx, in tvhom
the country bad rrach confidence as they did not repose
in him, was not aiding the enemy but the contrary.
He read the statute denning misprision of treason,
and argued that to apply to the act of Mr. 11100188 in
aiding nla son, the treason most first have been com
mitted, bnt the son did not gain the rebel army for a
longtime afterwards.
Mr Fmer, of Connecticut, interrupted -Mr. Trum
beil to describe the conditions of things at the time of
that occurrence, and said that if that Senator had a
minor eon lurking within the Federal lines with that
purpose, and of course acting rcaiiy as a spy, and if he
had not then given information to lead to bis axeat.he
naa guilty of misprision of treason'and should not be
admitted.
Mr. Tbumucll supposed the Senator would scarcely
vote to keep out every inanwhohadgivensucji aid and
comfort aa consisted In full knowledge of fntentlon to
join the rebellion without giving information. If
that rule prevailed, there wotud be few Senators pres
ent here.
’ Mr. Drum: Interrupted to ask Sir. Trumbull to no
tice the reasons for the resignation advanced by Mr.
Thomas in his letter, rather than those advanced six
years alter, and proceeded to quote those reasons, say
ing Mr Thomas had resigned forty-eight hours after
the reinforcement of Fort Sumter.
Mr. Touhbcix supposed that tlio Senator did not
agree with every act of Mr. Buchanan, such as the
appointment of Peace Commissioners, who promised
that Fort Sumter should not be reinforced.
Mr. Diiake donbttd whether the Senator would
claim that Mr. Thomas resigned on account of sncli
acta as that.
Mr. Tbumjutli, continued, quoting Mr. Cisco's testi
mony in favor of Mr Thomas, and concluded by say
ing that he would vote on the ease simply as war
ranted by tho teatimoDy. i ■.
Messrs. Howard, Stewart and Johnson endeavored
simultaneously to get tho flour, hut the Chair recog
nized
Mr. Johnson, of Man land, who called upon the
Clerk to read some remarks he had prepared.
They were read, I clpg mainly addressed to the point
of constitutional unaliflcatianß, saying the only law on
tho subject additional to the Constitution,'was that
. requiring an oath,, though, In his: judgment,-Congress
bad iio power to pass such a law. Bethought Mr.
Thomas was admitted to be a man of high : character,
and being willing totuke thatoath.thatfact was con
clnßiVe upon Congress. - --?»■'*.
After the reading was concluded, Mr. Johnson
added a few words in eegardtotheebargeamade
against Ur. Thothaß. He thought Mr. Sumner had
wholly misapprehended the act of April) 1790, on the
subject of treason. The first Section defined treason
as levying war against the United States, and Im
posed a penajty. The: second defined < misprision of
treason as knowledge of such treason; or giving it aid
and comfort. To bring Mr. Thomas within that statute
it was necessary toprove that when the son left he
had committed the crime of treason, and that the
Senator, bad he been called upon to frame an indict
ment, would have been obliged to set out that that eon
had committed treason by levylng war before ho left
his father’s house.
Mr. Johnson went on to defend.tbe conduct of Mr.
Thomas in that condition. If MrzThomas ever had
been a secessionist it was unknown to him (Mr. John
son), and he did not believe It. He quoted the son's 1
testimony to rebut the charge made by Mr. Morton,
that the reason advanced by Mr. Thomas to dissuade
his eon from going was that his State had not seceded,
and to show that he had told him he should not go
because it wonld be fighting against hta government.
Certainly no evidence could be shown that Mr.
Thomas, while in the Cabinet, participated in the con
splracy. He baddißchargod.overy obligation resting
upon him. No intimacy had existed between
nun and Mr, Cobh, whom he succeeded, aud
his subsequent' conduct showed his motives
in accepting the ofllco. To shake tho public
credit at that, time would have been to destroy the
union, and his first act was. on learning that there

of confldencoin Mr. Thomaß. In consequence of that "
doubt on his integrity Mr. Thomaa resigned, an act
for which he honored rather than censured him.
Mr. Johnson discussed the letter of resignation
holding that Mr. Thomaa- ■ the
President e act In collecting revenue on Bblnbbard was
justiflahle. In the time otJackson It was not thought
that such n power oxtered. When the nullification
doctrine of South Carolina gave rise to tho question
and special legislation was foahd iiocpißWy. 'tho wine'

Ration, he rsferredththcCbnventlon
called by Virginia In February. 1881, and participated
J", tf twenty-two States, adjonrnlDg February 27,
W hich had expressed strong hopes that the contin
gency of war might be averted.
He referred alio to the declaration of neutrality by
Kentucky after the proclamation of President Lln
ejln of April, 1801, which declaration wag signed by
Hr. Gatnric and Attorney-General Speed, loyal :
among the loyal, and adjured Senators to deal with I
Mr. Thomas as they had dealt with them,
f In reply to imputations upon the republican form of
government of Maryland by Sr. Mondli, of Maine, in
the course of debate, he said hnndreda okthoasands
there, aa In ether States, believed, no doUBt sincerely,
in • State’s right to secede. Although In that lie be
lieved they had been in error; thousands of them In the
armies of -the union had proven themselves (It suc
cessqrsof those who In 1781, In the battle of Cowpens,
by * brilliant charge upon the enemy, snatched victory
from rdefeat,: and turned the l fortunes of the day,
achieving historical and deathless fame for the Mary
land line and its noble leaders.
Mr. Stewabt, or Nevada, replying to Mr. Trnmbnll,
admltted that he had agreed to the report of the com
mittee, bat said that it was a compromise report, and
claimed that those who agreed to it could not be
charged with inconsistency for taking In the Senate
the same view they hid taken In the committee. He
then proceeded to contend that It was evident from the
facts sbownthatMr. Thomas bad always been in sym
pathy with the enemies of the government, and nls
toi / warned them to beware of admitting such men to
a share in the government, -
Mr. Conhesb, of California, moved, at 4:20, to go'
into Executive session, saying it was evident that no
vote would be reached to-night, as several Senators de
sired to speak.
Mr. Shebjmh, of Ohio, said that probablyj on such
a question, the Senate would sit till six o'clock be
fore a vote waa reached, at all events, and hoped they
would go on.
Mr. AKTHojrr, of Rhode Island, advocated going
into Executive session.
A motion to adjonm was lost.
The motion of Mr. Conness waa lost—l 2 yeas to 23
nays.
Mr. Howe, of Wisconsin, said he was as mnch dis
posed to speak as any man (ianghtcr), but he did not
care to do so if a vote was possible to-night. He
would not answer for what he might do to-morrow.
[Laughter.]
After further discussion relative to the propriety of
farther debate, after the formal understanding that
Mr. Johnson snonid close it. on motion of Mr. Fes
serpen, at -1:10 o'clock the Senate adjourned.
Hoi se—Mr. Hubbard (W. Va.), from the
Committee on Banking and Currency, reported
the joint resolution authorizing the Controller of
the Currency, with the approval of the Secretary
of the Treasury, to revoke the appointment of
receiver for the Farmers’ and Citizens’ National

was seconded.
The joint resolution was passed—yeas 111,
nays 2!)
On motion of Mr. Kerr (Ind.), the Presiden.
was requested to communicate auy report made
in pursuance of the joint resolution of March •if,
3807 1 in reference to ship canals around the falls
of the Ohio river.
The House resumed the consideration in the
morning hour of the bill reported by Mr. Stiller
(Pa.), from the Committee on Revolutionary
Pensions, giving $8 per month pension to sur
viving officers and enlisted men, including
militia and volunteers, of the military and
naval service of the United States, who served
consecutively for three months in the warof 1812,
who were honorably discharged, and who at no
time during the late rebellion adhered to the cause
of the enemies of the Government, but were con
stantly and continually loyal to it, and who can
take the test oath, and who are in circumstances
which render them dependent on others for
support.
.Mr. Miller (Pa.) addressed the House at some
length in advocacy of the bill. He claimed that
not more than one-twentieth, or 12,557, of the
soldiers of the class provided for in the bill, were
now alive and in such indigent circumstances as
-would make the pension-under this-bill-amount
to $1,224,672, but even supposing one-tenth of
them were in indigent circumstances, oven then
the amount would be only $2,4-19,314.
Mr. Loan (Mo,) addressed the House in sup
port of the bill, and claimed that it was so just a
measure that no member would dare to vote
against it.
- Mr. Miller moved the previous question on the
passage of the bill.
Mr. IVashburne (I1L) hoped the House would
not record the previous question, but let the mat
ter be discussed, particularly after the challenge
thrown down by the gentleman from Missouri
(Loan),- The bill had been opposed, and op
posed successfully for the last twenty years, and
never had passed Congress. He had before him
an estimato, showing that the bill would cost in
the aggregate $1,720,000.
: Mr. O’Neill (Pa.) remarked that that estimate
was made in regard to a totally different bill, a
biil to pension all the survivors and their widows.
The previous question was seconded.
Mr. Miller being entitled to one hour to close
the discussion, yielded to Mr. Loan, who, in re
sponse to a question of Mr. Baker, (Hi.), said it
was utterly impossible to state theprecise amount
that would be paid for pensions under the bill,
but from ,811 the information accessible
to- ’the cothmittee, It would not exceed
$2,000,000 a year. The statement of the
gentleman from Illinois (Washburne) was so
absurdly incorrect that it was perfectly amazing
how he could be induced to make it; That state
ment Included all probable survivors and widows'
and was calculated on the supposition that the
average length of life of beneficiaries would bo
twelve years.
, Mr. WAsneumtE defended the statement which he
had made.
Mr. Paine, of Wisconsin, asked at what time the
pensions were to commence? r•, -
Mr. Loan, of .Missouri, replied that they would
commence front tpavtime of the application under
the hill. ; v ; •.! •. ■>
Mr. Paine asked whether there was! any.objectlon
to make that point? more dear ami dufinffr fa tho
bill? . ■ - r,J z« ;
Mr. Jjoan said, there was hone whatever.
There was no time fixed in the bill, and, therefore,
under the general law, it was dependent On the date or
the application.
Mr. WABHBUHN, of Indiana, expressed hlajurprise
tbatany opposition shonld be, "made to "this bui by
any or those who had. appropriated $500,000 this
morning to go hunting over Europe for paupers to be
brought back to this country. . • *. *
, Shore speeches In advocacy of the bill were made by
Messrs. Logan, Burr, Benton. Mullins, ’ Lawrence of
Ohio,, BromweU or Illinois, Frayn, OFfoUI, and
Miller.
i Mr. Mullins of Tennessee, ridiculed the ooonomy
of Mr. Washburne, oflliinols, afidsaid that when he

Wiiaok, of lowa. In the chair, and resumed the con
sideration of the Legislative, Executive, and Judicial
appropriation bill, the question being on Hr. Don
nelly's amendment to Insert Items for the Department
of Education..
The question was dlscnssed by Messrs. Phelps, Ba
ker, and Boutwell in favor, and by Messrs. Harding
and Woodward against the amendment
The amendment was rejected—yeas 41, nays 6a
Mr. Dawes, of Massachusetts, made the point of
order.on the final clause of the bill limiting the em
ployes of the various departments to the number spe
cified In the bill, and repealing all conflicting acts.
The objection was tbat It was Independent legisla
tion.
The Ciiairmahsustained the polntof order, and the
clause was struck out.
The Committee rose and reported the bill.
Mr. WABirurBHE, of Illinois, offered as an amend
ment In the House the clause which had been just
struck out.
Mr. Dawes made tko same point of order, inti
mating tbat his object was to save the Department of
Education.
The Sj-kaker sustained it.
Mr. Wasuhurhe then modified the amendment by
omitting the repealing portion of it, and by limiting
the payments under the bill to the positions provided
for in it.
The House seconded the previous question on the
bill and pending amendment
Mr. Y ASnnrnHE, of Illinois, Bald hewould not press
