Larner said that he would not op- pose the resolution, but he did not think that Gen. Grant shonld be singled out when there were other Genezals equally as deserving. It was trne that the army of the West had fought well, but the Army of the Potomue was also deserving thanks, and be suggested that the neme oi Gen, Meade be inse:ied in the resolu. tion. = Mr. Shepherd ssid he had not expected a voice to be ruised sgainst the resolutions. Gen, Grant war how about to visitthe Capi'al for the first time since the commencement of the war, and he was deserving of all praise; he was the hero of the war, having never yet lost abutile. Astorthe insertion of the name of. Gen, Meade and complimenting thé Army of the Potomac, he theyg ht that could be done in anovher resojution, The Potomac army had hereiofore been complimented and the com- manding General (Meade) was frequently ia Washington. This was Gen. Granvsiirst visit heie. Ir. M. Larner said that it was the opinion of ecme that there was noarmy in the world ex- cepting the my of the West, but the Army of the Poiomacpad also jeught nooly, Ifit had pot have beA@for that army an“ Gens, MeCiel- lan and Meade, New Yoyk, Philadelpbiy, and Faltissore would have been destroyed. There was one thing that General Grant always did; that was always to obey ord-rs, Gen. MeQiAl lait was upt to Suggest modification ‘of the or- devs he received. Mr. L. would vote ior theye- solution cheertully. P oe Mr. O. Wilton was sorry to see any opposi- tion to the resolution, and asked why it wast Var it because Gen. Meate’s name was not inserted! He would like to compliment some colodéls, ms jors and corporals even because they deserved it. a t " ois Mr. Shepherd.—And some high privates, too. ‘The resoiution was adopted unanimousiy, and Mesers. Shepherd and €. Wilson'were ap- Pojnted the committee on the part of the board. “Mr. Shepherd introduced a bilf explaining the act for ibe. payment of bounties to volun. teers to allow the payment of premiums and recruiting’; abe Olay Mr. ‘Shep! xpiained that the Ma; e cconttruction of the:actewas that therigesthe if ob- |} of one m with the Congress’ ho, ff conjutiction | believed, aud utge npon | and no 4 ‘providing for the levying pecial tax for the payment of all “monies which have been or be e for bounties to volunteers under of the President of the United States.
