The Senate Committee on Military Affairs, to

XXXVLIth Congress—First Session.
CONTINUED IBOM THIRD PAGE.]
WASHINGTON, Jan. 14
SENATE.
Mr. GREKIN, (lowa,) moved to take up the
bill relating to the jail delivery. He said the
statement in the communication of Lemon was
nut a true statement of fact's. He was refused
admittance to the jail yesterday because he had
not a pass from teat-toreign satrap who was
brought here from Llinoia Lo impose upon the
inhabitants of the District. He intended to en
pose the character of this Marshal.
The motion was agreed to and the bill was
taken up.
Mr. cantata said the Senate had, spent time
enough on this bill, and he wanted it passed so
as to remove one peg on which to hang a sym
pathetic treatise on the negro race.
Mr. Moas.us said he could not let a correc
tion of abuse go with a fling to this side of the
chamber. This is simply a bill to correct abuse
against the liberty of every man, and could not
rest under the imputation of disturbing this
delicate relation of the negro question.
Mr. WILSON thought that the Senator from
Maine had done well in tatting notice of the
remarks of the Senator from Virginia. We
We had been talked to here by Mason ' and he
feared the Senator from Virginia was treading
in the footsteps of his predecessor. But he
neither feared rebukes nur wanted them, and
he would add his word of =demotion to the
insulting conduct of Marshall Lemon. Colored
people have never been so oppressed in ten
years. A Colonel came to him to=day with an
order from a Brigadier to send back fugitive
slaves. Thank God that his name has not yet
passed the Senate. He thought it was time we
acted up to principles, and rebuked these men
who are a disgrace to humanity.
In regard to the Marshall we ought to say
to the President that he had insulted the Sen
ate and must be removed.
Mr. OABLELB said the Senator could not have
heard what he said. • He merely gave expres
sion to his own opinions, that time should be
devoted to measures connected with the pre
servation of the Union.
Mr. Saxsatert said he had not heard a word
unkind or improper from the Senator from
Va., and thought his name ought not to be
mentioned in connection with a traitor. He
thought time had arrived for important action
in financial measures.
Mr. FISSENIM said there was, an erroneous
impression in the country,' that the Senate
should act on these financial measures imme
diately, and pass the tax bill—these bills all
take time and deliberation, and Senators could
not act till bills came from the House. He
thought gentlemen should not be blamed 'be
cause in intermediate time they attended to
other matters.
Wusois said he had listened to the lan
guage of the Senator from Virginii, and also
heard his speech before the holidays, and
thought it meant rebuke and reproach from its
manner.
