Leaking the silver serenity of Hawthorne's prose,
the mystical I3huddism of. Thoreau, and
the cutting epigrams of Emerson, we
get this month, in the way of philosophy, a se
cond instalment of Mr. Parton's easy comments
on "Our Roman Catholic Brethren"—comments
which, With all their keenness, have in them
more of the newspaPer style than that of the
philosopher. The other didactic papers have
precisely the air of leading articles prolonged.
Ifs. Bayard Taylor's "By-ways of Europe" (de
scriptive of Thuringia) its like some of the best of
his Tribune letters. Mr. Winwood Ronde, in his
African novel, "Lagos Bar," gains little from the
forcing of a vein of fiction into his tropical re
miniscences. "A Gentleman of an Old School,"
by J. W. DeForreet, Is, a good "local" sketch of
a character a little in the manner of M. Gine
mormand, in "Les Miserables." "The Turf
and the Trotting Horse in America" is
in the style of Mr. Wilke's jour
nal. The' , 3 • author is well-informed
and inalmedlvith his subject: he defines with
clearness the reasons why the turf can never be
come in this country the gambling-table which it
forms in England; and gives biographies of moss
of the famous breeders which have been fore
most in improving American stock. "A Mod
em Lettre de Cachet" adds a quantity of new
evidenee to the now popular discussion of Insane
Asylum outrages; it is by the competent hand of
Mr. L. Clarke Davis. "The European House-
Sparrow,' is a abort paper, without much new
information, by T. M. Brewer. Mrs.
Beach, in J. E. Babson's sketch called
"On a pair of spectacles," represents a
type of old-world excellence, set in a sea-port
town, which is now disappearing as rapidly as
New England ocean commerce has disappeared
The poems this month are pure and touching;
the immense superiority of a good American
magazine over one in any other country, so far
as relates to its command of a high class of poeti
cal contributions, is well exemplified in Mr.
Whittier's perfect hymn, "The Clear Vision," and
Prof. I.oweli's pathetic "After the Burial." Still,'
as a compilation, the magazine is more than ever
like an exaggerated journal, and does little to
place us in, the current of contemporary New
England thought. For sale by T. B. Pugh.
Our Young Folks for the coming month opens
with one of Charles Dickens's most felicitous
sketches, of an ideal land where the children are
masters, and govern their "families" of parents
and aunts and uncles with the most admirable
firmness, tempered with occasional champagne
and salad. - Oh, these children are very. wear
ing;" sass tiny Mr& Alicumpaine at a "juvenile
party" given for the aforesaid uncles and parents.
•Dear things." responds tidy 'Mrs. Orange, "I
dote on them, but they ARE wearing!"
They didn't behave at all well. Some of them
looked through quizzing-glasses at others, and
said, Who are those? Don't know them." Some
of them looked through quizzing-glasses at
others, and said, "How do?" Sows: of them had
cups of tea or coffee handed to them by others,
and said, "Thanks! Much!" • A good many boys
suxod about, and felt their shirt-collars. Four
tiresome fat boys =nth/ stand in the door
way and talk ithout newspapers, till Mrs.
Alicumpaine went to them and said, "My dears,
I really cannot allow you to prevent people from
coming.in: I shall be truly sorry to do it, but, If
you put yourselves in everybody's way, I must
positively send you home." One boy, with a
beard and a large white waistcoat, who stood
straddling on the hearth-rag, warming his coat
tails, was sent home. "Highly incorrect, my
dear," said Mrs. Alieumpaine, Lauding him out
of the room, "and I cannot permit it."
Mr. John Gilbert's illustration to this story is
capital, and the only reputable picture given: the
inanity of the grown-up puppy in the foreground
and the aplomb of the little girl-patronesses of
the ball, are comical enough. The American
wood-cuts are melancholy, especially a travesty
of Mr. Church's painting of the aurora borealis.
The best article is that (not "illustrated" but)
eclipsed by this repulsive picture, namely, Dr.
Bayes's "Cast Away in the Cold." "How June
found Massa Lincum," by E. Stuart Philips, is a
lively little tale. The Snukespearian reba.ses
may be of use in awakening
.an early curiosity
about the plays. T. B. Pugh, Agent.

"The Greenback Era," by General Francis A.
Walker, and "The National Debt," arc two
financial articles sensibly written and having
about them the ring of sterling honor. Mrs.
Harriet Prescott Spofford's story, "The Thief iu

embodies a rich and sombre situation, in the old
Harriet Prescott manner, with a June night and

prowling through it, as she attempts to steal a
compromising letter from her husband ; con
cluding with the suicide of the latter. "The

an illimitable puff of the Spanish aridity of

largely devoted to studies in fruit culture, an ex
ception, however, being a description of an in

NEW PUBLICATIONS.
We receive, from G. W. Pitcher, Messrs. Apple
ton's reprint of an English " mastery series " for
the complete acquisition of foreign idioms, the
author being Thomas Prendergast, lately in the
Madras Civil Service. One of these little volumes
is devoted to a copious presentment of the au
thor's theory, while the other two contain the
necessary phrases and paradigms of the French
and German languages respectively. Mr. Pren
dergast's method is at least logical, being an at
tempt
,to teach grown persons a foreign
tongue by the same steps a child
takes in acquiring his native speech. Grammar
and dictionary are studiously locked up from the
pupil. Some Idiomatic phrase is given him to
commit to memory, accompanied by a transla
tion Into good English. He is not encouraged to
originate expressions, but to commit sentence after
sentence in a parrot-like fashiOn, to connect these
sentences with their translations, and presently
to re-solve his English phrases back again into
their foreign models. This is undoubtedly, to the
intelligent student, irksome almost beyond
patience. He has not even the satisfaction of
learning, at the foot of the letter as the
French say, the separate meaning of the
words. The translations are always idomatic,
never literal. No insight into the machinery of
language, no satisfaction of an intelligent curi
osity, no chance for the exercise of his construe-
Live or analytical powers, is afforded by the Pren
dergast method. lie is kept from the beginning
at a harsh system of mnemonics, and whatever
he subsequently originates is conceived as an ap
plication of some of his conned examples. On
the other hand, the mind is stored with a series of
well-selected instances, comprising precedents
fo3r any case in point: and the committed idioms
are those exceptional and abnormal structdres
which never could have been grasped, in any
system, but by downright study by rote. We
arc inclined, after reflection, to give the
following opinion upon , this method.
If the student's aim is ' to be
a thorough speaker of a language, he will never
arrive at his result without a quantity of bald
study of the kind which Mr. Prendergast presents
in a very compact and well connected series of
essons. The stimulus of a large class would be
a great assistance in this exercise, so difficult for
an adult, and would impart some of the excite
ment and rivalship of an intellectual game.
If the pupil, however, is in the position of a
great many American:learners, desirous princi
pally of reading foreign literatures, he can ad
vance with much more interest and instruction,
can follow up the rationale of lingual derivations
much better, by the old self-assisting means of
dictionary and grammar.
Representative Public Men—Grant and
Colfax.
(From the New York Independent.]
I have just written the names of the two
most popular public favorites in the coun
try. There are others called greater men,
more profound statesmen. Yet Grant is the
pride of the army, Colfax the delight of civil
lite.
Destiny snatches her special darlings from
the arms of obscurity, mocking birth and de
gree as she sets them in the world's highest
places. Scarcely a name has burst upon the
world in transcendent lustre that did not ai
first emerge from the heavy cloud of defeat
and humiliation.
Not many years ago the well-paid, little-to
do officers of the United States Army used to
cross the street to avoid meeting a young ex-
Captain, turned farmer, because he "honed"
them by asking them to use their influence
to assist him in recovering his former posi
tion. To-day no officer, whatever his rank,'
would be greatly bored .by a conversation
with this same ex-captain, nor very likely to
cross the street to avoid meeting the General
of all the armies—the certain-to-he President
of the United States. Less than ten years ago
the people of America had never heard Of
Ulysses Grant. He was poor, he was disap
pointed. He had neither social position nor
political influence: Though he lived but a
few' doors away, he had never even spoken
to Elihu Washburne, the brave Congressman
who afterward fought his battle through all
defeat, and who washed his escutcheon white
of blame long before Grant 'himself could lift
it into the keen sunlight of renown.
Not many years ago a young man sat in a
little office in a small town of the West, clip
ping and writing for the columns of an ob
scure newspaper. He could boast of brave
blood and an honorable lineage,but the world
did not know it. His name was historic ,by
right of birth; yet, beyond the narrow arc of
a few counties, no one had ever heard of him.
Nature had not stinted his. birthright. Ad
versity had trained him for life. He entered
the service of his generation with a sunny
courage, an endless patience,a clear head and
a true heart. One has said profoundly:
"Temperament is greater than all." Tem
perament is fate. Not one of us is more nor
less than our temperament makes us. Schuy
ler Colfax has the temperament of success.
He began his career with an honorable ambi
tion and dauntless faith in the future. Yet,
through all the dreaming of youth,it is doubt
ful if' the "narrow walls" of the newspaper
office "stretched away into stately halls" of
the Capitol of the nation, or that he beheld
himself the third in rank in the government
of his country within less than twenty years.
The prestige of Grant is entirely impersonal.
Reticent and impassive, he has not the tem
perament which inspires spontaneous, indi
vidual enthusiasm. You see him, and find
it difficult to associate his personality with
his deeds and make them one. The popu
larity of Colfax is purely personal. He has
the spontaneity, the heart fellowship which
inevitably inspires personal devotion. Be
yond this he has the unswerving integrity of
character, the sagacity of intellect, . the clear
vision and executive gifts which Americans
admire, if they do not always demand theni,
in their statesmen. He is the idol of the
West. He is a favorite of women; not only ,
because he says very pleasant things
or—them, nor because he grew' ' into

hel3ol, trjeler Colfax." Very likely. If true:,
the, tact be very mrioh to his credit; flu
we' all know that those public men who lit'
believed'in and supported by the best women
are the men who are supported .atid believed
in by the best men. We know; also, that the
most illustrious men of all tips and nations
have drawn their highest inspiration and best
success from the friendship and devotion of
women.
Schuyler Colfax 'is a politician - in the high
est sense of that much-abused term; for the
best years of his ,active 'manhood have been ,
devoted to the study of political science and
the administration of public affairs. General
Grant by nature is anything more than a ,
politician. He has seen the time when he
was too indifferent as tO_who was to be the
next President of the'llnited States, to vote
for anybody. The habits of temperament
and of thought`led him peaceably along the
straight path of discipline and routine, till
destiny suddenly forced him to the very sum
mit of success. Grant :and Colfax are not
antagonistic, though each makes the antithe
sis of the other.. They are in a singular de
gree counterparts—the temperament of one
modifying or , supplying the defect or excess
of its opposite.
So utter has been General Grant's. negation
as a politician that the most exigent Repub
licans have distrusted the 'soundness of his
faith in the tenets; of the atty,E and have
turned their unenthusiastic eyes upon him
only as an uninteresting necessity, to be se
cured by them against the triumph of the
Democrats. Not until i the publication of his
private letters to President Johnson on the.
removal of Sheridan and Stanton, did he, as
a man, seem to quicken the public pule:: to
one thrill of enthusiasm. Yet these letters
only proved what his acts attested long ago
—that, when he has anything to dci, he does
it; when he has anything to say, he says it.
However dumb before, when the occasion
comes he speaks without hindrance and
without fear. He is loyal to his friend, he is
loyal to his duty; and you feel in every line,
however calmly, that his heart throbs deeply
and truly for his country.
Republics are not always ungrateful. And,
the grand armies of this Western land feel
that they owe more to the soldier who led
them from defeat to victory than to any other
man. The soldiers of the Republic know
that their own renown is indissolubly linked
with his fame; that he who led the national
armies through the Wildness" of death to
triumphant peace is the man who should
receive the highest recompense in the gift of
the nation.
That Grant is to be the next President of
the United States seems to be a foregone con
clusion, and the name coupled oftenest with
his for the Vice Presidency is that of Colfax.
The experience of the last tour years has
proved the absolute necessity of choosing for
the second Executive of the Government a
man who will not disgrace the people it
called upon to fulfil the duties of the first.
In previous years, if the popular candidate
the first office was secured, the man for the
second was usually adopted on the basis of
mere expediency. In the career of Andrew
Johnson we have paid bitterly for such insin
cerity. We have learned a hard lesson. Shall
it make us wiser? Then let the question be,
What is the man? What ishia record? Is he
incorruptible? Is he the fit representative of
the conscience and will of the people? And
not, In what State was he born? In what •
State does he live? Irrespective of all fitness,
will he be a soothing poultice to the festering
egotism of some one insignificant Common
wealth, tilled with self•consciousness and self
im p - extance to repletion?
urther than being one more proof of
public favor and confidence, the election of
Schuyler Colfax to the Vice Presidency
would add very little to his honors. He is
already the chief of the great House of that
Congress affectionately called by Wendell
Phillips the "dawdling Congress ;" which,
nevertheless, in idea and action, has always
been in advance of the people. It has not
followed, it has led the nation. From the
very first, making issue with all Atulrew
Johnson's wrong-headed notions, the Speaker
of this Congress has been conspicuous in his
unflinching devotion to those simple truths of
human right which underlie all human weal,
for love of which so many thousands of our
best have died. As a man there is every
thing to be said in favor of his election to an
thee of higher trust. He is one whose
power rises spontaneously to equal oppor
tunity. Thirteen years in Congress—elected
over and over again by large majorities, amid
great enthusiasm, against bitterly • contesting
opponents; three consecutive times elected
Speuker of the House of Representatives,
through every promotion of public service
he has given the impression, not of exhausted,
but of buoyant, progressive, patient power,
equal to profounder demand and higher occa
sion.
Mr. Colfax is pre-eminently adapted to fill
a national office, because in the largest sense
he is a representative American. Of the. peo
ple, and with the people, it is impossible fir
him to be purely sectional in his sympathies
or in hie ideas of legislation. He has greater
personal familiarity with the resources and
interests of the whole country than any other
public man, having traveled in every State
from Oregon to Maine, hailed everywhere by
the masses of the people as a beloved friend.
He is incorruptible, he has remarkable.ex
ecutive talents, beside an individual aoqua,int
ance with public men of all parties, a hoc w
ledge of presiding and of parliamentary law
not exceeded, if equaled, by any other Ame
rican in public life.
The chief objection offered by the politi
cians of rival States against the nomination
of Mr. Colfax is that of locality. They assert
that the West is trying to usurp the old pres
tige of the South in the monopoly of public
emolument. It is time to take a broader view.
How puerile is the self-assertion of any one
State when it attempts to claim as its own a
man born on its soil, or living within its pre
cincts, whose name and influence is national.
Grant was born in Ohio,has lived in Missouri
and in Illinois; his home, whether he be made
President or not, is in Washington. Colfax
was born in New York, has lived in Indiana,
and in sympathy belongs to one side of the
continent no more than to the other. Grant,
if elected (independent of till loyalty), will be
elected by the whole people.;,lle is not!of the
West, nor of the East. He is not of the North,
nor of the South. He is of the whole nation,
reflecting in his person the triumph of its
arms and the vindication of its principles.
Let every sectional murmur cease in the ac
claim of the entire people pronouncing the
names of their rulers. Is the fancied pro
rogiitive of any one State a grain of dust in
the balance compared with the weal of a vast
nation as administered through its chief exec
utives ?

biI:NATX Armorstiarom DILL.
WASILDIDADD, of Illinois, from the Committee
On ' Appropriations, reported back the Senate bin
making an appropriation of, talo. , 9 0 far defraying the
expenses of impeachment. Sto Ine for miscellaneous
expenses of the Senate, and 017 uOO for extra Capitol
police, etc.
Mr. WASHBURN. E., of Moo's, said the committee
had stricken out the other Items of the bill, and pro
posed to add st)so,eoo for the pay of laborers, who had
had no money idnce last December
lir. Runarroz. of Wisconsin. in noticing the item
of $4O 000, wanted to know whether that was a cat in
the meat tub?
MX.'WASITAIIIINX replied that there was no "cat in
the meat tab," and said he did not think the gentle
man from Wisconsin would suppose that the Cora.
mince on Appropriations would improperly foist any
thing on the Roam
Mr..lltottruds did not believe the gentleman would,
but when unanimous consent was given for acting on
this bill. los did not want to be found in this dilemma.
WASHAVIIND said the 'MAO item included a
great number of expenses for which the vouchers were
tiled In the Senate. He bad not time to critically ex
amine them, but was assured by the Chairman of.the
Appropriation Committee of the Senate that he went
over then one by one, and found the amount actually
correct. Therefore , he thought it to be his duty to
corona to the items.
Mr. SPALDESO, of Ohio, inquired whether they were
all for legitimate pummels, and -connected with the
impeachment trial?
Mr. Wesuntrann replied, not all for impeachment,
but otherwise legitimate.
Mr. SPALOTSG moved to strike out the $40,000
item. lie did not think they should appropriate this
amount without knowing more about it. It did not
come in, as an ordinary deficiency, but in a bill to pro
vide for losing expense; of the impeachment trial.
They should see bow this large item is made up.
Mr. Emannaur asked whether it had already been
sircernatied tnat ten thousand dollars in an adequate
sem tom tbe expenses of the impeachment trial, or
is this merely to strlkethe public mind as all the
enemas s of. it—merely for the sake of sugar-coating
the pill t
The SPRALLESI SW the inquiry was not germane, as
yet-
Mr. Weston:um said the amount covered contin
gent items necessary that the Senate should have.
He would not urge anything not necessary and proper.
If his colleague on the committee (Mr. Spalding)
POSeessed all the information be (Mr. Washburn) had
from the Chairman of the Senate's Committee on Ap
propriations, he would have been eat stied, and would
not have moved to strike out this appropriation.
Mr. firstomm in reply to his most excellent col
league on the coixonittee, said that he was most com
monly governed by his opinion This morning, when
the bill came before the committee, be agreed that the
gent/mum ishould examine the items making np the
sum of forty thousand dollars. He agreed that it
should not come ID under the head of contingencies,
but that he would give it a substantial name in order
to let the people see what they were paying the money
for. If the gentleman was saddled, he would with
draw the motion to strike out the appropriation.
Mr. Warm/alum replied that he bad no special in
terest in this matter. He was as much indisposed as
the gentleman from Ohio was to have general and
miscellaneous items in this bill. The Senate found
that this amount was necessary for their purchases,
and it WiDl but courteous to vote it.
Mr. Dawns, of Massachusetts. inquired whether
the gentlemanwas sure that this item was for mis
cellaneous anti net for contingent expenses ?
Mn Waan.atiotz--Does my friend think there
Is any difference between them
Mr. DAWES said be could vote for; the items If they
were for contingent expenses, hut if for miscellaneous
expenses be desired they should be fully informed on
the subject.
Mr. Wastristoom would like to have his friend's
vote.
Mr. Dawns said be could not give it because 'the
nentlemar. from Ohio and his "excellent friend' from
Illinois said It was not for contingent expenses but
for miscellaneoue expenses.
Mr. Weentutoom remarked that perhaps hie friend
could j udge what they were when he mentioned that
oue its m—hlarge item--was to pay the funeral ex
penses of a s late &muter from Vermont (Mr. Foote).
Mr. Dawrs-=-That is miscellaneous.
Mr. SPALDING, of Ohio--I want the House to un
• deratand that the Committee oh Appropriations did
not know of what this sum. was made up. 1 now
withdraw my motion to strike it out.
Mr. Ittnamon, of Wisconein.-We on this side can
not decide Whether tbils item of $lO,OOO is to pay all
the indiranisfil the imPeschruniin trial or is a mere
bagatelle, a) be renewed by ten tlinee Aar mac% more.
Mer •Wasnakloslas-If necessary I would vote a lima
drad tbeisandidolles. • • s • s
Mr, ELnallnalse/tio doubt it would be used for that
Virnstintrenz-1 don't think, it could be used for
a betterporpophriot .
Mr. nitinms.--Does the gentleman say
that . he would give $lO,OOO to obtain excess?
and.that if It wan necessary to add ten times that flues,
,hemertild slate lit; , and &oho ho ^propose to effect the
action of the Senate in that ways
Mr. Wanantmorz— Of course the gentleman from
Wisconsin does not understand rue M., MAW any
Kith' thing.. Thn., B oMitte. which.ir charged with try
ing the imperiehMent, Walla 10,000. I do not know
whether this amount is sufficient or not; they ask for
it, and I am in for appropriating the money s end if a
further amount is necessary, I will vote for that also.
Mr. ELnmDGE—Did pot the gentleman say that if
he could make the impeachment trial a success he
would vote one hundred thousand dollars
Mr. Wasnninna-I,eald ten times tbat ranch. I
will sayone hundred millions if the gentleman would
be better ratite:Jed with that. • •
Mr. Illurettrape—l did not suppose the gentleman
• could be sat candid on this subject. I did not suppose
that $10,900 would be taken as the necessary Bata. It
la a mere bagatelle for the purpose of making the pub
lic believe that,this Is all the money necessary to pay
the expenses of the trial, and tbe gentleman from Illi
nois admitted this when lie said he would vote not
only ten thousand, but one hundred thousand dollars,
and then added, with the approbation of his associates,
that he would agree to vote one hundred millions.
The sentiment is unworthy of the gentleman from
Illinois, and urnvorthy of the House when the trial is
pending, that they would appropriate this large sum of
money for the purpose of making impeachment a sue
ceea. I would notgive ono dollar. Let the trial go on
according to the rules ofjust'co, unaffected by meney.
if the $10,00(lis tappropriated•to create the belief that
thiels all the Money necessary to meet the question,
and let the country know what the expenses of the
trial really are—
Mr. Wasnninum--The gentleman did not misun
stand my purpose before the House, and cannot put his
remarks on the country as coming from me, He may
undertake to leeture the House and myself as to our
duty, but I Will pot permit him to misrepresent me.
What I said WAS, if impeachment should be sticcess,
It would be worth a hundred millions of dollars to the
country. and I believe so : in what it would alive to the
country frOM the amount plundered from the Treasury
by office holders, friends of the gentleman from Wis
consin and his party. It would heworth millions of
dollars in thh.divee men lot the South, who
would be Bayed by thrusting a usurper and a tyrant
from the White Houee. That is what I said. The
gentleman and the House Will hot misunderstand me,
hut agree with the verdict of Sutith which treat the
Senate wilt render.
The bill was then pained. •

Mr. JENCEPA. of Rhode Island, from the Committee
on the Revicion of the Laws, reported a bill amenda
tory to the bankrupt act. It extends the provisions
of the second clause of thethtrty-third sect,on tilt the
Ist of June, 1869, and amends It so as to re td: “In all
proccediLgs in bankruptcy commenced after the first
of June. 1869, no discharge shall be granted ti a
debtor whose assets slirdl not bet equal to 60 per cent.
of the claims proved against' his estate, arid upon

It also giver, registers in bankruptcy power to ad

Mr. JENCREI desired to have the bill put upon, its

Mr. Bemis, of Maseachusetts, who was entitled to
the floor on the bill concerning the rights of Ame.lcan
citizens in foreign States—declined to yield for that
purpose.lest it might eive rite to discussion and con
...
pume time.
The bill was then ordered to be printed and re
committed.
Mr. Coma, of Wisconsin, offered a resolution in
structing the Committee on Military Affairs co inquire
into the expediency of providing by law for the publi
cation of all soldiers' claims that have been allowed
and paid; to he made in a newspaper published in the
capital of each State, and to be published monthly or
quarterly of all 'debts paid during the preceding
month or quarter, to the end that elaimagenta may not
be able to retain soldiers' pay and bounty for an un
necessary time after collection. Adopted.
Mr. Coon, of Illinois. offered a resolution directing

called for in the Howse resolution of. 12th December
last as to the public vessels sold since the war, and
whether ; any of thole sold had been captured from the
enemy on which prize money had been paid. &c.
Mr. WABISIIMIE, Of Illillo l / 1 , said he had to call atten

answering almost every call for information made by
the House. The House had on his motion, on the
12th of January adopted a resolntion calling for infor
mation it hich had not yet been answered. The House
ought to take some measure to vinoicate its rights
and dignity.
Mr. ELDIIIINTE, of Wieconsin,esked Mr. Washburne
what resolution bad not been answered.
Mr. WtPEIBURNE stated that Haas in reference to
the number of vessels bought and sold, the amount of
commie-tons paid,&e.
Mr. Rummer suggested that those were thor ea
sels sold by the present acting Secretary of War.
Mr Vex AUKEN, of Pennsylvania, ot,lecled to the
resolution.
Mr. BANKS called up the bill reported from the
Committee on Foreign Affairs concerning the rights
of American, citizens in foreign States.
Be said he had taken every possible opportunity
to thrust its consiceration for thud action or ; the
House. He did not wish to consume time in diecus-
Mon, but W:l. willing to follow the judgment of the
House in regard to it. He wished, however, to have
the previous qnc-ation seconded now and there. He
would yield half an hour to gentlemen in tit- cue -
eion, and should o:cupy the same length of time him
eelf to explain any objections there might be made
to it.
Mr. Etior, of Massachusett , , sald• that before the
previous question was sated, he desired to offer an
amendmentt--he same that he had indicated when
the bill was under discussion some time ago. It was
to strike out these words, "The Presideat shall be,
and nereby is empowered to order the arrest and to de
tain in custody any subject or citizen of such foreign
government woo may be found within the jurisdic
tion of the United States,"and to insert in lieu thereof
the following, "Such delay and refusal shall be re
gamed as,an offense to the United States incompati
ble with sontinnous trtendly relations with each for
eign governments."
.Mr.lllaae--I have no objection to having that
amendment submitted to the House.
Mr. JITICKES, of Rhode Island, desired to offer a
substitute which he bad heretofore given notice ot.
Mr. Mums declined to yield for that purpose.
Mr. Perms, df Wlitoonsin, offered an amendment to
except ambassadors and other public ministers, sled
their domestics and domestic servants from liability
to arieat.
Mr. Ramis said he did not object to the amendment,
but ho did not deem it necessary as the Supreme Court
of the United States had decided that the privileges
of foreign ministers did not depend upon the action
of Congress. Congress could not confer these pnvi
legee nor take them away, but inasmuch as it explain
ed the bill he had no objection to it.
Mr. Pattiz said his only object was to make it per
fectly clear that the bill did not authorize this Presi
dent directly or indirectly to attempt a violation of
the laws of nations.
Mr. Va..; Tulsa, of Ohio, desired to offer an
amendnient by way of additional sections, providing
that wherever any citizen of the United States, either
native born or adopted, or who shall have declared his
intentions to become a citizen, ehall by, a declaration
In writing made and execued in a district court of
the United States within itbe State where he shall
have held his last legal residence, declare that he re
linquishes the character of an United Stares citizen,
and shall thereupon depart from the United States,
such person shall be considered as having exercised
his right of expatriation under this act, and shall
thereafter be considered as no citizen of the United
States, as being absolved trim all allegiance thereto,
and as having voluntarily relinquished all right and
benefit of protection therefrom, and that such person
so absolved fromlabegiance shall not thereafter again
' become a citizen of the United Statw except under
and by virtue of the naturalization laws then ex
exieting."
Mr. BANKS said he could not yield to have that
amendment offered. It defeated the very purpose of
the bill. It was a declaration in effect that without
the permission of the government no citizen of the
United States could cease to be a citizen, and that de
feated the claim of the United States upon foreign
governments.
Mr. VAN TRUMP Said he had the misfortune to differ
from his distinguished friend on that proposition, but ;
be had discussed it heretofore and did not propose to I
discuss it now.
Mr. Bears declined to yield to have the amend
ment offered.
Mr. BAKER also desired to propose a substitute for
the bills, but
Mr. BANKS declined to yield for that purpose.
Mr. Ping, of Missouri, moved to amend the third
section, by inserting after the words ;empowered,"
&c.. the words' ' Suspend in part or wholly commer
cial relations with the said government or in case no
other remedy is available."
, Jar: BANKS said he had no objection to allowing that
amendnient to be voted upon.
Mr. Ras Es desired , to have struck out the last words
of the first section, as proposed by the gentleman from
Indiana (Kerr), now absent, the words being "and
therefore null and void."
These words 'trete agnordingly struck. Oqt,
The previous question was then seconded and the
,Main question ordered.
Mr,' Sits rote' td said: I have - only a few words
to say on this subject. In reference to the proposition
of the gentleman from. Illinois (Mr. Baker), to strike
out that part of the preamble which refers to the claim
of European nations, I have only to say it is simply
referred to us 44 claim. It is immaterial to us whether
it be true or not; it is certainly a claim made by their
government, and it is a claim which we have denied.
Mr. GARFIELD, of Ohio---Wba' t•lbiairtanent' has
made a claim?
- - -
Mr. BANES -The English anditither 'Nerorieatigov
ernments. In reference to the amendment offered by
my colleague (Mr. Eltot)i 'which is in effect to strike
out the enacting , clause of the bill, I have one
suggestion to make. This bill proposes as matter of
legislation of a different character - from that
Which , ordinarily comes before the House. It is
legislation for the purpose of affecting the action of
foreign gevernritents, Ordinarily, legislation is fore.
the purpose of affecting our own action. Here we
propose to affect the action of the governments of all
the European States, and that makes the distinctive
feature of this bill. It, therefore, stamp" upon dif
ferent principles, and involves different consid
erations from those that are usually presented.
If the members of the House do not care
to influence other governments in reference to, this
matter, I do not know whether I should. If the
gentlemen who represent constituencies, composed in,
a great part of naturalized citizens, are perfectly in
different to the action and claims of other govern
ments, and perfectly indifferent to the action of this
government in reference to- the rights, •of their- con
stituents, I have pothing to say. .If my -colleague
(Mr. Elliot) is willing that citizens of the 'United
Mates shall be arrested in foreign countries, for acts I
done or words spoken here/-if he , willing that a '
member of the House shall be arrested as a member
has been from his own btate of MassachUsetts, I have
nothing to say. It is no affair of mine. -• •
1 report this bill as. the best in my judgment, and
the hest in the judgment of my associates on the
Committee on Foreign' Affaire,with a view tothe ac-
Mon of foreign governments upon a largo mans of the
citizens who are counted by , the, milliOns, 3ly col.';
league will allow me to ask him how it is expected
- that we shall influence foreign -, goveniments, • No ,
act of ours will take effect there, - • They-say whatever
rights naturalized Citizens ueder'the American gov- '
ernmeut may have,we have no disposition , to Complain •
or decide, but when you come to matters affecting
• one doinestic affairs, we claim the same rights that you
claim,and thus they decline toconelder the clainis which
the Atrierican government has made in behalf of its
naturalized citizens, and there is no way of compel
'lug them to do 11. We propose by this bill, and it is (.

So the bill was passed. It is as follows:
A Bill concerning the Rights Qf American Citizens
in Foreign ;Rita,
Wlrtreas. The right of expatriation is a natural and
Inherent right ot all people, indispensable to the en
joyment of the rights or lite, liberty, and the pursuit
of happiness, for the protection of which the govern
ment of the United States was eatablished, and
Whereas, In the recognition of this principle this
government, has freely received emtgraxds from ail
nations, and invested them with the rights of citizen
ship; and
Whereas, It is claimed that such American citizens,
with their descendants, are subjects of foreign
States, owing allegiance to the governments thereof ;
and
Wber eas, It is necessary to the maintenance of pub •
lic peace that thiscialm of foreign allegiance should
he promptly and finally disavowed; therefore,
lie 11 enacted. AT., That any declaration, instruc
tion, opinion, order, ordeciston of any officer of this
covernment which denies, restricts, impairs, or ques
tions the right of expatriation is hereby declared in
consistent with the fundamental principles of this
government.
Sac. t Arid be it further enacted, That all natural
ized citizens of the United States, while in foreign
States, shall be entitled to and shall receive from this
government the came protection of persons and prop
erty that is accorded to native•born citizens in like
situations and circumstances.
Sac. 3 And be it further enacted, That whenever It
shall be duly made known to the President that any
citizen of the United States has been arrested and
is detained by any foreign government in contraven
tion of the intent and purposes of this act, upon the
allegation that naturalization in the United Staten
does not operate to dissolve his allegiance to
his native sovereign, or if any• citizen shall
have been arrested and detained whose release
upon demand shell have been: unreasonably delayed
or refused the President shall be, and hereby is, em
powered to suspend in part or wholly, commercial
relations with the said government, or in case no
other remedy is available, order the arrest and to de
tain in custody any subject or citizen of such for
eign government who may be found within the
jurisdiction of the United States, except
ambassadors and other public minis
ters and their domesticss and domestic servants, and
who has not declared his intention to become,a citizen
of the United States, and the President shall, without
delay. give information to. Congress of any such pro
ceedings under this act.
JENCKER ootained leave to report to-morrow
for action on the bill to amend the bankruptcy act.
Mr. ROBIN , 03: gave notice that he would move to
morrow to mail the impeachment managers, and
withdraw all proceedince.
STAirnvreinfeet offered his resolution in refe
rence to the detention of the United States ship
Saline, at New London.
At the suggestion of Mr. ELDRIDGE, the resolution
was modified by striking out the words "to the de
triment of the public service" and was then adopted.
Mr. Bitchousem., of Pennsylvania, gave notice that
be would call up to-morrow the report of the Com
mittee on Accounts for lighting the hall by galvanic
battery as the dome is lighted. '
