The Vice President pro. ion. laid before the Senate the resolution from the House for the impeachment of Judge Humphrey. On motion of Mr. nine, (Conn..) the rotor lution was referred to a select committee of three. • The Vice President appointed Messrs. Foster, Doolittle and Davis as the committee. The bill to establish a part of entry and delivery at Hilton Head, South Carolina, was received from the House. On motion of Mr. CHANDLIR, (Mich.,) the bill was taken up and pearled. Mr. WRIGHT, (Ind.) presented petition from a, citizen of Florida, asking for the passage of the confiscation bill. Mr. Wirsou, (111.a5a.,) presented rs remon strance of the merchants of Boston, against what is called the 13igelow system of taxation. On motion of Mr. FikaINDIIIN, (Me.,) the bill making an appropriation for deficiencies In the payment of volunteers, was taken up. He said the appropriations for the payment of the two and three years volunteers amount to one hun dred and five millionsof.dollars. Mr. KALE .H ,) said he saw in a morning paper a statement signed, by members of con- . grosa that the expenses of the Government were four millions a day. He would like to know whether there was any foundation for this statement. Mr. FFSEIENDEN mid he could not undertake to answer all the statements in the newswapers, whether made by members of Congress or any body else, but he had no idea that the expenses of the Government amounted to any such sum. The bill was then passi d. The bill limiting the number of Major and Brigadier Generals in the volunteer service was taken up, the question being on Mr. Hale's amendment to make number one hundred and eighty instead of two hundred, it was rejected— yeas 16, nays 19, and the bill passed. The bill limits the number of Major Generals to thirty, and Brigadiers to two hundred. Mr. Sustiza, (Mass.,) offered a resolution that in efforts now making for the restoration of the Union and the restoration of peace through out the country, it is inexpedient that the vic tories obtained over our own citizens should be placed on regimental colors of the regiments of the United States militia. Laid over. The bill to establish a Department of Agri culture, was taken up and passed after the re jection of a substitute providing for a bureau instead of a departmeut, which was defeated by a tie vote. Passed. Mr. Dootnrrts called up the bill introduced by him to collect taxes on lands in insurrec tionary districts. He briefly explained that the bill-provides for the assessment of the value of lands assuming the vainatiOn made before the . ebellion. It gives sixty days alter the Presi dent's proclamation to pay taxes, authorizes commmlasioners to- follow the armies and sell land for taxes, giving sixty days atter sale for owners to redeem by taking an oath to support the Constitution, with two years time for re demption to loyal citizens. No right of re demption to persons engaged in: rebellion or giving aid and comfort to the enemies of our government. It provides for leasing lands and for the employment of families who reside thereon. It also provides for the final sale of lands in small parcels of one hundred and sixty acres, allowing soldiers to give certificates of indebtedness against the United States in one fourth, and gives three years in which to pay the balance. It allows loyal citizen; of States who contain no lands, to preempt mere claim lands. The proceeds of the salmi and leases are to go into the Treasury of the United States, one fourth to be paid over to the States where lands are when they become loyal and elect a governor and legislature who will mem& support the Constitution, to aid in the payniNt of taxes of loyal citizens in those States, and another fourth to be paid over for voluntary colonization for such persons of color as are made free or become free during the in surrection, to Hayti, Liberia, or other tropical countries_ The bill was postponed until to-morrow. Oa motion of Mr. Have, the bill relating to select jurors to the District of Colombia was taken up. Mr. Games offere I an amendment that any person serving on grand or petit juries of the 'United States of America shall take additional oath never to take up arms against the Gov ernment in any rebellion, or advise, or encour age.any person to do so, or directly or indi rectly give aid and comfort, or assistant*, to any person joining any insurrection. Messrs. HALE and TILLIMIspLL opposed putting an amendment on this bill, as it was the inten tion of the Judiciary Committee to report a general bill on this subject. Mr. Gams withdrew his amendment and the bill passed. On motion of Mr. Games, the bill providing for the education of colored children in the District of Columbia, was tak-n up. The bill prolrides that ten .per cent. of the tai collected from c•ilored residents be applied to the educa tion of the children of color in the District of Columbia, he subjected and amendable to the same laws as free white persons, and be tried for offenoes in the same manner as free white persous, and, if convicted of any crime, be liable to the same penalty and punishment as free white persons ; and all acts and parts of acts inconsistent are hereby repealed.
