American Claim Against England.
When the settling-day shall arrive, which.
will be “when this cruel war is over,” this
country wiil claim reimbursement from
England for the damage which the com
merce of the North has sustained from the
piracy of the Alabama —a war vessel built
at an English port, and navigated by an
English crew —and the piracies of other ves
sels. Mr. Seward has already intimated
to Lord Russell that such a claim will he
made, and, it necessary, enforced. Not well
knowing how to mention America, in the
Queen’s Speech, without referring to this
notification, the Palmerston Cabinet pre
ferred remaining silent on British relations
with the Butted States. In the debate on
the Queen’s Speech, Lord Derby taunted
Lord Bussell with this silence, giving his
own opinion that Mr. Seward had, {"le
gally,) not a leg to stand upon, and hoping
his “blustering” had received such a reply
as would terminate it To this, Lord Bus
sell said never a word of answer. It may
be presumed that he had no reply to make.
While yet on the stocks at Birkenhead,
the Alabama, it may be remembered, was
“spotted” by Mr. Dudley, our vigilant
consul at Liverpool, as a future privateer,
intended to be employed, under the “ so
called Confederate” flag, against American
commerce. Proofs of this intended purpose
were accumulated by Mr. Dudley, and
were submitted, under the authsrization of
Mr. Adams, United States minister in Lon
don, to Mr. Collier, then Judge Advocate
of the British fleet, and counsel to the Bri
tish Admiralty. He was naturally selected
to give a legal opinion, not only from the
position he held, but on account of his re
puted knowledge of international law. The
Selection was judiciously made, for since
then, he has been promoted to the high office
of Solicitor-General of England. His opi
nion was, that the building of the Alabama
for war purposes against the American car
rying ships, was a violation, not only of the
neutrality proclaimed in Queen. Victoria’s
name, but also of the Foreign Enlistment
act. Further evidence having been laid
before Mr. (now Sir Robert P.) Collier,
he gave a second legal opinion, yet more
decided than the first That evidence and
those opinions were laid before the British
Government by Mr. Adams, weeks before
the Alabama was ready to go to sea, but,
from some cause or other, no definite action
thereon was ordered until the last moment,
when an order to the custom-house authori
ties at Liverpool, not to allow the Alabama to
quit the. Mersey, did not arrive until a few
hours>/i<v she had steamed out, nominally
on a trial trip. This was suspicious, at least;
but still more mysterious is the fact that,
though the Alabama was under a bond of
$lOO,OOO to the authoritiesat Liverpool, which
bond became forfeit on her non-return to the
Mersey, the British Government has not yet
demanded the money thus payable for
such forfeiture. It is difficult to avoid ’any
other conclusion than that there was collu
sion, somewhere, in the Alabama’s hurrying
away the moment before an order arrived
to stop her, and the subsequent non.demand
for the penalty of the bond.
In a recent “ Letter to Earl Russell,” by
Mr. F. M. Edge, Oumself an Englishman,
long resident in this country ), speaking of
the Alabama and other pirates, he says:
The effect upon the oommerce of the United State*,
coDuqutDt On the fitting out) unhindered departure,
*nd these privateers, can. be gathered
from the following:
1. The capture, destruction. or bonding of Ameri,
can merchantmen and other vessels.
2. The enorcnously increased rates of insur&noe
upon American chipping and cargoes.
The sale* of American vessels to foreign own-
bottoms * raD, fer °f American commerce to foreign
He estimates, from facts upon record,
that up to the 30th June, 1863, one hundred
and forty-eight United States vessels, with
a tonnage of 61,292 tons, had been cap
tured, bonded, or destroyed by these marau
ders ; that estimating the value of these ves
sels at ten pounds a ton, then here was a
first loss of £612,920 to the American pri
vate marine, and that, at taking the loss of
cargoes in the China trade at £700,000, and
of the other vessels at £1,100,000, fat twen
ty pounds a ton ) here is a total for vessels
and cargoes of £2,412,920, which maybe
set down in our money at a total of $l2 -
064,600.
The insecurity of the American carrying
trade at sea led to an immense increase in the
premium on insurance for ordinary risks ■
an increase of from five to ten per cent,
which would cancel the profits upon almost
any venture. Hence ensued the laying-up
of vessels in Northern ports, or their sale to
ioTeign owners. It is calculated that up
wards of 320,000 tons of shipping have thus
been sold out of American hands in a single
year, in consequence of the depredations of
these maiauders. Our imports and exports
have also felt this blow, foreign vessels be
ing increasingly employed in the great car
rying trade between the United States and
other nations.
The demand upon England by this coun
try, intimation of which has been made to
Lord Rubbell, will probably be: First, for
the loss of ships and cargoes captured or
destroyed by British-built pirates under the
rebel flag. Second, for the interest oi the
capital invested in such vessels and cargoes.
Third, for injury sustained by our business
interests from the depredations upon our
shipping, and the consequent depreciation
of our carrying trade.
The Danish Defeat*
As we have heretofore indicated, the
main body of the Danish army have re
treated to the island of Alsen, after a short
stand at Duppel, on the way from Flens
burg to Alsen. The allies are, of course,
in posseEßion of Fleneburg, and, what adds
jtothe misfortunes of the Danes, a conside
rable portion of their army is severed, and
retreating into Jutland ; though, according
to a Danish account, it is only their cavalry.
We apprehend, however, that the Danes
are divided and demoralized; the old gene
ral, Dr Meza, has been recalled from com
mand, and Gen. De Luttichbn made com
mander in his stead; great excitement pre
vails in Copenhagen, and other towns of
Denmark, and the gallant people clamor to
be led to war, though it is untrue that any
thing like a revolution has taken place.
Great naval activity prevailed at Copenha
gen, and three strong frigates had been sent
to the island of Alsen.
. allies, on the other hand, have car
ried on the campaign well, and pushed their
success with energy. Anything less would
have been, perhaps, discreditable; while,
Short of a Thermopylae, we cannot ask of
the Danes more than they have done. They
have bravely endeavored to defend a line far
too large for their numbers against an army
nearly four times their own—a nation of
1,750,000 against an enemy of 54,000,000.
The river Slei, which the Prussians
crossed to turn the rear oi the Danes
St Schleswig, is an arm of the sea,
forty miles long, running up to that
city. Of course, its passage could not be
prevented, though that event rendered the
fortifications defending Schleswig on the
sea flank untenable. The whole subsequent
conduct of the Danes seems a necessary re
sult of the first necessity. More rash gal
lantry might have been displayed, and more
blood might have been shed, but the result
would not have been materially different.
We quite agree with the London Times'
that Denmark has lost all save honor. Bat
What has its English ally gained ? As the
German forces pass through the towns of
Schleswig, the Duke Frederick or his
partisans issue proclamations violating in
spirit, if not in act, the treaty which Eng
land is in honor bound to uphold, and which
Austria and Prussia pledge themselves to
observe. At the same time, the British
people express shame and indignation.
The Bulletin’s “ Bull.”
We are reduced to the painful necessity
of reminding the Bulletin, which has taken
upjthe cudgels for some of its contemporaries,
that Washington was born February sad,
1788, and that (strange, but true) he had
just completed his first year when the first
anniversary of his birth occurred. (N. B.—
This is an important point.) Let the Bul
letin carefully count up the number of
Washington anniversaries from February
S3d, 1738, inclusive, and we feel a com
fortable degree of arithmetical assurance
that it will discover February 82d, 1864, to
have been his one hundred and thiny-s«c»/id
anniversary. The whole thing is as simple
as A, B, C, or 1,3, 3—a primer in a nut
shell. A prolonged discussion seems to us
so side-splilUnglj ludicrous that we shall
content ourselves, in 'the style of public
speakers, with these few “ brief remarks,”
and henceforth take a lively interest in the
Bulletin's progress through the alphabet,
building-blocks, Peter Parley, and the mul
tiplication table.
The news that General Sherman has
captured Selma, in Alabama, will be receiv
ed with great satisfaction. This achieve
ment is one of the prime objects of Sher
man’s expedition, and it will add double
glory tohis splendidmovement. We hope that
this news will be confirmed. If true, Gen.
Sherman has secured the point whose pos
session places the city of Mobile, and Gene
ral Pole’s and General Johnston’s armies
Strategically at the mercy of our forces in
the Southwest. The march which General
Sherman has made, according to this news,
is altogether one ol the greatest on record.

Aetter from President Lincoln.
iFrom the St. Louis Union 3
The following letter from President Lincoln, upon
a subject sow exciting much attention in this com
munity, was addressed to a leading citizen of St.
Louis:
Executive Mansion,
TV . . . Washington, December 23. 1863.
I have jnst looked over a petition signed by some three
dozen citizens of St. Louie, and their accompanying
letter, one by yourself, one by a Hr. Nathan B«ina y> a2d
by a Mr John D. whole relating to the Kev.
Dr. McPhieters. The petition pray?, in the name of jns
tice end surer, that I will restore Dr. KcPheeters to all
hi« ftcclesiattical rights
.This gives no intimation as to what ecclesiastical
rights are withdrawn. Tone letter states that Provost
Marshal Dick, about a year ago. ordered the arrest of
Dr. McPheeter*, pastor of the Vine-street Church, pro
hibited him from officiating, and placed-the macaee
m«nt of the affairs or the or arch out of the control of'
its chosen trustees; and near ihecloßeyou state that a
certain course “ would insure hie release. *> Mr. tt*n
ney’s Utter says: “Dr. Samuel McPheeters is enjoy
ing all the rights of a civilian, but cannot preach the
Gcepel!!:” Mr. Coalter, in his letter, asks: “Is it not
attrange illustration of the condition of things that -the
question of who shall be allowed to preach in a church
)n>t Louis shall be decided by the President of the
United States?”
Now, all this soußds very strangely; and, withal, a
little as if you gentlemen making the application, do
not unde rati na the case alike, one affirming that his
doctor is enjoying all the rights of a civilian- and an
other pointing out to me what will secure the rebate l
On the 2d of January last, Z wrote to General Curtis m
relation to Mr. Dick’s order upon Doctor McPheetore;
and.ae 1 suppose.the Doctor is enjoying all the rights of
a civilian, 1 only quote that part of my letter which re
lates to the church. It is as follows: "But I ma*t add
that the United States Government must not, as by this
order, undertake to run the churches. When an indi
vidual, in a Church or out of it, becomes dangerous to
the public intereat. he must be checked, but the church
es as such.must take c&ie of themselves. . It will not do
for the united State* to appoim trustees, supervisors, or
other agents for the churches ”
This letter going to General Curtis, then In command,
I supposed, of course, it was obeyed, eipaoially as I
heard so further complaint from Doctor Me or hid
friends for nearly an entire year. I have never inter
fered, nor i bought of interfering, as to who fhail or
shall not preach in any church; nor have 1 knowingly
or believingly tolerated any one else so to interfere by
any authority. If any on* Is so interfering by color of
my authority, 1 would like to have jt&pecilloally mvle
known to me.
If. after all, what is now souaht is to have me pu l :
uoetw Me. back, over the heads of a m&lOrliV of Ills
that, too- Will he declined I wai
not have control of any church or any »Me

pwhMd Partisans
Oibcibbati, Feb, 24.—The unfortunate collision
between member* of the 17th Ohio Regiment and
citizens of Lancaster, Ohio, proves to have been a
serious aflSlr. The circumstances are briefly these;
Treeoldlers were assembling in Lancaster, prepara
tory to leaving for Camp Dennison. The conversa
tion turned on the war, during which the loyalty
and dlßlojalty of certain eltizens were pretty freely
ventilated.
An old man, named Zee, Uie keeper of a saloon,
seated himself at a window, where he could hear
the conversation, having previously armed himself
with a revolver. About 10 o’clock in the evening a
loldier, by the name of Little, turned to Zee’s son,
and remarked, “George, I understand you have
become a Copperhead.” The young man resented
this, and, turning sharply upon Little, the latter
thrust him aside with his fist, whereupon Zee
drew bis revolver and shot Little through the
heart. The soldiers immediately collected around
their fallen comrade, when old Zee again fired his
revolver into the crowd, the ahot taking effect in
the hip of a young man named Michael, who died
on Sunday afternoon.
The murderer and his son escaped. The soldiers
were muoh exasperated at the murder of their com
rade, and threatened to burn the town. Col. Durbin
Ward, their commanding officer, although partially
disabled by his wounded arm, rushed in among his
infuriated men and pleaded with and commanded
them to desist from their purpose. He succeeded
partially in his efforts, but the soldiers demolished
the saloon and scattered in search of old Zje and
his son, scouring the town and vicinity.
About two o’clock, on Sunday morning, they
found young Zee lurking in the outskirts of the
town, and brought him into Market-House Square,
where they assaulted and beat him almost to a jelly-
Colonel Ward again rushed Into the erowd and
resiued Zee from the soldiers, and had him taken to
the house of a surgeon, and atood guard over him
While his wounds were being dressed.
In a speech to the soldiers, Colonel Ward told
them he was informed that persons of Boone coun
ty, an entirely Copperhead district, had armed them
selvea, and were coming into Lancaster; whereupon
the soldiers rushed to the armory for guns, took pos"
session of the court house, and barricaded it, but
nothing came of the tumor-
The Indian Territory.
St. Louis, Feb. 24.—A Fort Smith despatch says
that advice, from the Indian country state that the
valley of the Canadian river and it, tributaries are
clear of rebels, and that the upper Seminole country
has been entirely swept, bo that all rebel supplies
for a'movement on Arkansas must come from Red
river, where the enemy is now concentrated.
The rebel Indiana are thoroughly disheartened.
Gen. Maxly was present in the Choctaw Legiila*
ture a few days ago, and advised the Indians to re
turn home and raise crops. The Choctaws, Creeke,
Cherokees, Chickasaw,, and other tribes, were re
presented. The Choctaws urged a separate Con
federacy, as the rebel Confederacy wa» unable to
protect them. The Creeks are prepared to fly Into
the Wachlta mountains.
Colonel Phillips’ brigade had a fight with rebel
Indiana and Texans, on Middle Boggy river, on the
14th, killing .foity of them. Our loss was one man.
The enemy were pursued to Fort Arbuckle, and
our force, then retired to tbe Canadian. Fort
Smith has been included In the Department of Ar
kansas, and General Thayer has established his
headquarters there.

St. J Oil is's, N. B.i Feb. 24.—The police magistrate
delivered judgment to-day In the Chesapeake case,
ordering that the prlaonera be committed to jail lor
suriender to the United State* authorities. He said
that the evidence for the prosecution diioloses that
the prisoners and other parties captured the steamer
Chesapeake. It was the work of cowards and vil
lains. Then aster or a vessel must have unfettered
authority and obedience from his crew and passen
gers. The evidence oh the part of the defence dis
closes the fact that there is a terrible civil war
raging in the United States. The only authority
given for the seizure or the Chesapeake is that given
by John Parker, and he had no power to give
commissions to other parties. There was no autho
rity given in the letter of marque to Parker to trans
fer his power to another. He the (magistrate) could
find no justification for the seizure of the Chesa
peake. It was cnimo furande non fume belli; it was
piracy, robbery, and murder. It was judioable by
the United States courts, and a case within the €k
traditton treaty.
Application will be made for a writ of habeas cor
pus, so as to bring the case before the Supreme
Court.

□ Ite Grade of laleut General In Rebate.
The joint resolution to revise the grade of lieutenant
reneiaiCKmeup in proper order, the pending question
ueu gon ainenuxneutß ot the Military Committee of the
Senate to btnke out from the House bill the provision
recommending General Grant for the position.
Mr. GRIMES addressed the Senate. He said: When in
1798 we were at war with Prance, the attention of the
country was called to one man to lead the national
forces. That was he who was first io peace first in war
and Asi-tinth«hearts of hiacountrymen, Hehadbsea
tried ih the moat exalted positions! and there wov
eminent fitness in giving additional rank in his case
T et, t-venjn his case, we find nopiecedent for this ac
tion, as it was not sought to incorporate his name in the
resolufioneoi Congress.
Mr GBIMES also referred to the case of General Scott,
upon whom the ntie had been conferred, and said that
the grade was revivtu, not while Gen. Scott was per*
forming service in the field, but seven years afterwards:
and then 11 was Simply a bievet title. It was never
thought to make Scott a iieut-nant general until public
sentiment bicame unanimous that some distinction
should be awarded to him. He could see no analogy be
tween that case and the present. The effect of the pas*
sage of this resolution won,d ba either to call General
Grant from the present position be occupies, and place
him at »he head of the armies—moke him the man of
counsel at Washington instead oi man of action In the
field—or* while being, by virtue of the title, com
mender-in-chlef or the armies, liable to be assigned to a
mere local command. -Would this confer a distinction
apon him except the rank a&a Pay? Ho; it woula leave
nm etill under ihe oiders.or the Prerideat and General
HaiUck. He did not think it just that an act should be
passed to accomplish either of these purposes He voted
on this subject without any reference to political pur
poses, and without a desire to pluck a single laurel
from General Grant’s brow General G ant was
a man of action ih the field. That was the estimate
Which General 0 rant set upon Ms own character, and no
nsn would regret the action proposed In the House reso*
Ulione more than the General him,elf: for. as he states
lto-eeifc '»success over the enemies of the country is all
1 dceire. ” The argument is urged that wb need a live
gemralin the councils of the Administration. Have we
any assurance that General Grant will be better than
the one we have? find, indeed, are we sure that had
counsel has not proceeded from auother source than
General Halleck? Should we hold General HaUeek
responsible because Jacksonville, Florida, bas to
be ctptured for the third time, and for the ex
pedition fiotn Hew Orleans to reduce Port Hud
son, under General Banks, wheu the position would not
have been held a day afier the fall of Vicksburg?
Be (Ur Grimes) was no admirer of General HalUck
and held id not stand h*ie as his defender; but he liked
fair pltty, and would have justice done to him and the
country. If he had no O'her objection to the joint reso
lution as it came from the Houae, this was a vital one
in his mind: that it would have the ultimate effect of
making a whole batch of lieutenant generals, as every
mnjor general in the field would be ambitiousof ob
tainiogtfce highest honor possible to be obtained
Mr. fcUMKEK considered that General Hatleck’spre
sent position wa% that of an adjutant general to the Pre
sident, es Coro mandarin-chief. The resolution as
amended would not place General Grant in command of
the armies of the United Btaiee, It was, in his opinion,
a complimentary resolution. When General Scott
commanded the army in Mexico there was one major
gcneiai ptsiaee himself, and his whole army would not
compere with a single corps of the army oi General
Grant No officer had ever given us such a series of
Victories as General u rant, and if General Grant’s reputa
tion hung upon one victory alone he would feel reluctant
in conferring this high honor, but this wsb not the c&se
Be has captured eighty or ninety thousand prisoners,
and has w*-u more battles and taken more gnns
than any other general on record. He would be
P€ »' fe *G y witling to award Bimilar honors to other gene *
rale who would do their country like service, Be would
not speak In derogation of General Ilalieck as in liis
peculiar line he was probably a superior offleer If he
was disposed to criticise, he would Inquire why, with
an army inperior to the enemy, lying within fifty miles
of Washington, the rebel army is not defeated and Rich*
mend taken by General Halleck or General Meade? He
could only see that the Army of the Potomac was now
where it was two years ago. That army has not won
the honor of the war. General Grant and his army had
done 80, and he would have them extended to him and
Mr. JOHN SON raid tv would not voto for tho bill if it
retained the clans* designating the general upon wh om
the rank should he conferred, as he considered it as a
stmmaupin the President of the United SUten. He was
not one of the number who thonght General Halleck In
adequate tothepertormanceof his dntles. In reference
to the siege of Corinth, he had high military authority
for sating that it could not have been more wisely con
ducted than by General Halleck. If there has been die
aster, impartial history will attribute it to othere besides
Genera. Halleok. That general has not always been
consulted, and when consulted his opinion has not al
ways been adopted. So lar as the Army of the Potomac
wa. concerned, victory has always perched upon their
baiueis against egnal numbers, and by i: Gene
r&l iallecK’fj Advice had been taken often. Tho
splendid, victories of Antietam and South Moun
tain, and a column sent np on the Virginia side to
intercept Lee’s retreat, the rebel army would hare been
captured by Gen. McClellan He considered that the
refusal to do this was unis stifiable. Mr. Johnson also
referred to the battle of Gettysburg, which he considered
as one of the fine st battles on record. At a critical junc
ture, whenit was all-important that the enemy should
be pursued. Gen. Meade followed the responsibilities of
Mb situation, gad consulted with corps commanders.
Who advised against the movement. He thought Gen.
Meade should haxe assumed the responsibility We
should look, however, at the facts in the case Should
he have failed in his purpose the Government would
have been at the mercy of tit* rebels.
Mr. CONMBSS, of California, said the greatest army of
the war, the Army of the Potomac, has failed after a
trial under different commanders It was notim proper to
seek for a man with sufficient military capacity to take
control, and direct the affairs of the country from this
tune forward He hoped the Senate was not willing to
pats this empty honor on General Grant without giving
nun controlcf that which he was possessor of
Mr. HALE said he should vote for the bill just as it
came from ihe House, became if he wanted to do an
act he would do it peacefully. If he was anywhere else
except in this Chamber, where every man is supposed
to, and did rpeak what he thought, without any sinister
meaning, he should think that those gentlemen, whoso
Strennoudy oppose tale honor to General Grant were
8 f r * coin, and Intended to put Gene
ral Grant on the track as candidate against him
wanted Gen. Grant to go where l is merits entitled
him There was no feeling on earth—not even woman’s
lov« —so strong ae the feeling that the people entertain for
the defenders of their liberties. We are toid there was
noprecedent for this bill. That was true; but we were
Jiving in times when it becomes necessary to make pre
cedents If we were 10 be tied up by precedents, the
country would go to ruin. There was a law to be re •
gardea higher than any Congress could make, and that
was contained in the maxim of theoid Roman writings—
•Rtrpttuatethe Republic ”
He would rejoice to see, after the establishment of this
precedent, general after general coming here and laying
the fruits of victory at our feet to seer this honor.
Mr. WILSON said the Benator from New Hampshire had
expressed the b« pe that the Senate would pass this reso
lution, and thus dictate to the Chief Magistrate who
ehonJd be lieutenant general. He hoped the Senate
would do no such thing. For himself, he took no part
in movements looking to the making of the u*xt Presi ■
djnt- It was time some months hence to turn
attention to that. He hoped that the Senate would pass
thejoinv resolution as amended by the Senate Military
Committee, which authorizes the grade without diefcat
lngtothe Executive upon whom it shall be conferred,
ihe public judement of the country points to General
Grant as the person, and he mew the President was in
favor of such an appointment- If there had been a man
**?£■ had fctood up for Genei al Grant th*t man
was the President. He had sustained him when the
Shears were every where de
nouncing him. He thought nobody had aright to ad
vise the XVetident what to do wiih General Grant
Mr, HOW* was in favor of putting the resources or
the country in the hands of General Grant, atd we
would see what would be the remit*. He had been suc
cessful in a few things, and he would bestow upon him
many things- There was no dictation in asking the
President s do what we all think should be done.
Mr. FBbBBNDBN would not detract in the least from
the honors so richly due to General Grant, but he con
sidered it improper to indicate to the President the per
son upon whom the grade should be conferred, as the
Senate was hereafter to ait as judges npan hii confirms

At fire o'clock tin
Mr. ALLEY* of Massachusetts, made a s atement that
within the last week the town of Gloucester. Matsa*
choselts, was severely injure! by fire, the btißlne*s
portion being destroyed. The tax ollector of that dis
trict bed written to the Treasury Department to allow
Mm to suspend the collection of the internal revenue for
the present from tbe sufferers by the fire. Many families
bad beta turnedoutof doors- andiacoocetvablesuffering
and distress exists among them. He. toerefore, asked
Lave to introduce a resolution authorising the SeersUry
of tbe Treasury to temporarily suspend the collection of
JAMKS C. AT. LBN. of Illinois, angles fed iiimnd
n ent, eo ae to inelude those who hav« lost their stock by
tbe recent cold weather In tne West. .. -
Mr ICING, of Missouri, obrsoted to the introduction of
the resolution^
The Bouse then resumed the consideration Of the bill
to establDb a bureau of freedmen’s affairs
Mr, DAWSON, of Pennsylvania, said be would
oppofethe bill In evoy eiageof its progress, at d naa'ly
vote ageln’t it, regarding it as nr coneticutl-nal and ob
juftt. Eight years ago, w» en he was before a mem
ber of this House, the country was pursuing a career
of prosperity. He retu> ned here in the mtdst of a revo
lution, when our resources are wasted in a conflict
which still rages. Nullification and S*= cession are alike
without warrant in tbe Con titution. The South had been
consistent since 1798 in adheritg to the doctrine of state
rights. Both tbe 4outh and the North were wrong
is *tiuu)atlnx the present condition of affairs. What
ever grievances the South had did not justify a revolu
tion. Our troubles have grown ont of the exercise of
doubtful powers, and a departure from the Federal com
pact. He proceeded to defend Mr. Buchanan, who, it
was changed, showed a lack of energy in not acting
with sufficient promptness in garrisoning the fortifica
tions. But the truth was there were noavailab'e troops
for ihat purpose. Mr. Bucbaaan had not authority to
bring back a seceding State. President Jaeksou, in
1832, did not attempt the exercise nf coercive p<nvdr until
Congress passed the force bill, Mr. Buchanan asked forau
thority to employ th*> military and nav-tl forces, but Con
st e-s did not tbink proper to grant it. since we have thus
far failed to reduce the rebellion by anoonptitatlooal re
straints os the liberty ofpsrg* n«.sp?ech and the press, by
martial Jaw ana the emancipation proclamation, ani bv
cor-fibcation ads. wu must resort to other means, which
the armory of the Government famishes There could
be no peace on the principles declared by tbe Admlais
tratton. The war was inaugvrated for tre defence of the
‘ onEluution and laws, and for the preservation of the
ynion. The emancipation proclamation must be with
drawn and the confiscation acts repealed, and we mast
return to the object of the war, as \ eretofore declared
in tbe Crittenden retoJutions. Above all tbingß.ha.de
sired the restoration of the Union a# it was. and for
peace on the baei* of the Constitution The Chicago ol*t
foim inaugurated a revolution, and the question or sla
very m the Territories hen Jca to thddl«tnrba.ace of a
p«ace which otherwise might have been perpetual. It
was madness in the South to secede. She should have
remained in the Union, and battled with the Abolition
pbah-DX, under the segls of tbe Constitution.
The morning hour haviogexpired,
Mr, FEfrTON, of Connecticut, moved to put on its
paperge iho tenate bill tHhing tbe appointment of the
warden of the jail of this District f*om Mar»h .l La-
SiatC8 and conferrlnff ifc oa the President of the Gnitod,
Mr. COX, of Ohio, Iceffactua-lly sought to have the
bill tablfed—yeas G 5, nays 72. The bill was then passed
The Home then went into Committee of the WhMe
on Jbe Male of tneUr-ioj’ on tbe naval appropriation bill.
Mr. KING, of Missouri, diaeaxsed the sabject oi po
litical troubles in that State, denying that Governor
Gamble and General Schofield had combined fo the par
poke of preventing enldters from voting, and defending
the Mistonr) State militia. In tbe course of his remarks
he said that Fremont had thirty thousand men at St X> >ais
when Price, with only i'onr thorn and men* invaded the
State with iirpunUy: ana Htooh Fremnnt two we«ks to
find out which way Price had gone, after erecting fortl
ficatlons in Bt. Louis, which, stand as monuments of his
folly. Not to with the State militia. There is no occa
sion for any oiher troops in that State. They were loyal
men, and had never foiled to do their duty.
Remarks of Mr. Scofield
Mr SCOFIELD of Pennsylvania, remarked that his
colleague (Mr. Dawson) had informed the House tint it
s?*^sl?* ?. eat * Moce he had spoken hhrn before to-day
He (Mr. Scofield) knew that, because He had followed
hieeollesguo’spersonal history; but, from tbe tom of
his speech, his colleague had at that lima turned down
a leaf, and to day resumed where he left off The speech
of his colleague might, with more propriety, have beea
muds during the Pierce Adminlrtratfon. The qaeition
involvedin the struggle was. Shall this great Republic
be divided into two small ones? Those who advocated
that U should be took up arms to defend thetr position
iney desired to retain their political power, habits of
life, and cberiabed vices and idleness They knew that
“®VSi institution of slavery was founded in wrong, and
could not bear to be talked against. They knew it must
go under.
While tbe North were ta'kingabout slavery, and were
endeavoring to fence it away from the Territories* the
bouth were attempting to fence freedom oat; and
they ch< se secession as the mode. Then gentlemen
b*gan to make excuses, saying they had no power of
coercion. Bst our flag is still held more firmly than
in the beginning, and is sustained by the courage.
PEtriotism.snd sense of duty’of American citizens; ye-i by
their conscience. If you want to find which is the
strongest—Mide and courage on one side, and c
auc courage on tHe other—yon most read ths flro.awel
lian history The pride of the * * Cavalier ' had to yield
to the conseiescs of ihs ''Eoandhead " "Tae URtoa
must and shall be preserved," or. In the language of
Webster, Liberty and Union, now and forever, one
ftlv inseparable.” But the neutral party stand
'There they stood three years ago, in the same po
sition of bloodless neutrality. Trey are now indif
ferent spectators They look anxiorndy for some ua
fortunate mistale in the council or di-aster in the field
to fulfil their predictions and jastifr their neutrality be
fore the world. Their music is half a line or * 'Yankee
Doodle, ’&few bars of ‘‘Dixie,” wSUa ekoms of com
«vil prophecy. Tb*y have to see that this
waristobe conducted on Christian principles, notwith
standing the brutal ferocity on the other side Tnev
have to see that slavery and the other property if the
rebels is not confiicated; that our credit is dishonored, and
that legal-tenders are not equal to gold, with other sub
jects to embarrass the Union movements. »s to ex-
Fresident Buchanan, God has provided that no child
B ?aU wear the stein of such deep dishonor. He under
atood tHatiho Union party insist that the country shall
be undivided, and that the necessities of the war and
humanity require that it shall be a free country.
The committee then proceeded to vote on an amend
ment heretofore offered, that seamen shall be paid in
gold, or its equivalent. This was disagreed to—yeas 35.

Tlie Navy Appropriation.
Mr. RICE, of Massachusetts, moved to increase the
appropriation for construction and repair of ve isals from
thousand dollars to
twenty-six millions three hundred thousand. Mr. lues
explained the necessity for this appropriation, and iaci
dentally stated that provision would be made in another
bill fop iron eea-going vessels, so that we may be soma*
What on a par wjiJi the navies of France and England
Mr. Sl BYkNS. of Pennsylvania, said the estimates
wire a hundred and forty.four millions forthenavv.
the Commit ee of Ways and Means had reduced
them thirty-seyen millipne. believing that while such a
reduction would not cripple the navy, some of the ob
jects of the appropriation could be postponed tin a future
time.
Mr. BICE, of Massachusetts, differed from the aentle
man. and said it waß lmposeible forthe Navy Depart
ment to fulfil Its duties nnisaß Congress gives the means
for that purpose.
Mr. Rice’s amendment WkA agreed to. Yeas 72
nays 23.
a long debate then took place on the item of $135,000
for the purchase ef two iota adjoining the Boston navy
yard
fin Ineffectual motion was made to strike it ont.
Without coming to a couchisi-n on tho bill, tho com
mittee rose at fire o’clock, and the House adjourned.
Harrisburg , Feb. 21,1904
The Senate was not In Session to-day.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
The House mot at II o’clock. Speaker JOHNSOH in the
chair.
Mr. REX offered the following preamble and resolu
tion :
Whereas, There is great anxiety amongst the citizens
of the State, irrespective of party, to obtain General
McClellan’* Report of the Peninsula Campaign, which It
la impossible for the members to get in sufficient nam
bers to satisfy the wants of the community; and ,
Whereas, Said report has been made a public' docu
ment by Congress, and is of great interest and import
ance to all those who have relatives and friends who
were with and shared all the dangers and trials of that
patriotic general during that trying period: therefore, t
i o * ota&id report be printed
and bound for the use of the members of this Hoase.
The resolution was not agreed to.
Mr. WELLS offered a resolution to hold sessions every
Tuesday. Wednesday, and Thursday evenings until the
resolutions paying damages for rebel raids were disposed
of The resolution was lost.
Mr. GLAbS offered the following:
Whereas, Man> loyal citizens of Pennsylvania, now
in the armies of the Union, have re enlisted for three
years and have not been accredited on their muster-in
rolls to any particular locality; ana whereas, owing to
this fact they are credited to the state at large and not
to any district therein, whereby they are precluded from
receiving the local bounties offered by patriotic citizens;
be it therefore.
Rt Solved, That the thanks Of this Bouse are hereby
tendered to every Pennsylvania-volunteer who has re
enlisted in the armies of the Union.
Resolved, That a special committee of three be ap
{tainted to ascertain the number of soldiers so re-enliafc
ug who cannot receive local bounty, and report upon
the expediency of providing for them a State bounty
of two handred dollars, with power to report by bill
or otherwise.
Resolved, That copies of thie leaolution be forwarded
by the Clerk of this House, with the proceedings thereon,
to the commanding officer of each Pennsylvania xegi
ttaent or detachment, with tho request that the game
be resd on drees parade to those of his command.
Mr. BaKES moved to amend by making the State
bounty *4OO instead of $2OO. *
Mr. COCHRAN said that the veterans who now re-en
lisied had power to ciedit themselves to any desired dis
trict.
Mr. PEB6HING said that the local bounties would
all be paid as soon as it was ascertained how ma ay of
the veterans had re enlisted ItvAa thus unnecessary
to give the State bounty. He believed that the system
of bounties, as at present conducted, gave a veteran less
than a raw recruit. This was wrong.
Mr. GLASS said that the veterans who re-enlisted
were credited to the State at large.
■ Mr. HOPKI9S said - that he had bean informed by
Captain Lane, in Philadelphia, that all the veterans who
le-enhtted prior to December 25th were credited to the
State at large, and then assigned rata to each dis
trict, They rtepived no local bounty. Those who have
re-enllited since December 25th can assign themselves
Where they choose, and receive a local bounty.
The amendment to increase to s4uo was agreed to.
Teas 67, yeas 25.
Mr. Bit; HAM said that the resolutions would only
plac* the State in competition with local districts. Not
another volunteer would enlist on local bounty, if these
resolutions passed • '
Mr COCHRAN moved to amend by inserting, after
gfoo, "or such sum as the committee may recommend. ”
Mr. Cochran’s amendment was agreed to, and the re
eolutioni passed.
Mr, MILLER offered the following resolution:
Resolved, That in view of the contemplated removal
of the seat or government of the State to Philadelphia,
that the Committee on Education be instructed to make
Inquiry as to the expediency of establishing a State col
lege, the leading object of whiehfchall be thorough mili
tary. education, * * not excluding,however, scientific and

Some persons may suppose that buying and payia*
spurious machines give the light to USE them Tlih : ,
a mistake/ as will be seen by the following extract fat
a recent decision of the United States Circuit Coartfo
the Southern District of Ifew Y*rie *
“The respondent alleges, in mitigation of the pum h,
“ ment which the Conit has power to Inflict, that ha wu
“ deceived by the person who sold him the machine whit*
*’he has used in violation of the mandate of the Goan
“He avers- that the seller told him that those only wht
"made and sold the spurious Sewing Machine weialii
“bU. not those who merely used them. TUe Uj,
“gua&eof the injunction is. however, explicit oniay
point. It prohibited the use, as well as the nh aaj
•'manufacture.
** The responder, t claims that he is a foreigner by birti
’ and ignorant of the English language, and, th reforr
did not understand clearly thepurpoitof theiaj ut!
tlon. This is no excuse. Every man, whatever may i*
the lan go* go to ape&ks. or wherever hl« birth, is pr<
snmed to know the law, and the contents and purps f
of any legal process or mandate of the (Jourt genii
1 upon him. If he does not understand the langaagg i;
1 which that mandate is expressed, he must correct!]
1 inform himself of its purport, and if he falls to do so
‘it is at his own peril*
“In the present case, the Court will inflict on the v,
Epondont a very Hoht fine, hut simply on the groan
1 that the complainants have united with the
in requesting it; otherwise, the Court would viou
1 much severer punishment upon him. This practice i
disregarding the mandates of the Court in the»#]
‘sewing machines made in violation of the compiaiii
■ ants* riahts, has become quite too frequent. Alre&ii
‘lias the Court inflicted a fine of seven hundredaj|
fifty dollars on one guilty party, and, if thiß i>rao:;/J
continues, the Court will feel compelled to inflicts]
1 vere and summary punishment upon those who vloj j
its decrees. The Court will not feel bound alwajt
1 nor often, to mitigate that punishment, even at th* rj 1
1 quest ef the complainants,but will pursue each a w>\
‘as -will eeeuxe obedience to its mandates. i
“The responder tls ordered to pay a fine of fifty]:-]

‘tillthe same is paid. ” H
