Referred. ‘TUK CASE OF SENATOR BRIGHT. ‘The report of the Judiciary Committee on the resolu- tion to expo! Mr. Bright was then taken up. Mr. SumNgR, (rep.) of Mass., sui that the expulsion of a Schator was one of the most solemn acts; but our duties must be performed, specially when the good name of the Senate and the weifare of the country is at stake. In former cases the persons to be expelled eabsent; in this case the person is presont. Cataiine, while plotting the lownfall of Rome, appeared in the Senato; and Bene- diet Arnold, while committing treason, appeared at court martial iu Philadelphia, It was clearly the right of the Senate to expel members on evidence before them, and tho facts in this case are few and can be stated brietly. He (Mr. Sumner) then briefly referred to the ieating events in the rebellion, the taking of the forts, the seiz- ure of the uational property, aud to the time when Jeff. Davis became tne head af the rebellion aud war was actualy commenced against the government. At thig time Jesse D. Bright, Senator of the UniteuStates, writes 4 let.er to tho chief of traitors (the letter was read). Mr. Bright bas always boon notoriously the friend and sympath'zer of Davis and Slidell in their schemes in favor of siavery and alway oted with thom. He (Mr. Sumner) c mmented on the address of the letter, waich was to “His Excetlency, Jefferson Davis, President of the Confederate States.” and claimed that it was as fur as possible the recoguition of a pretender as President of the rebel States. ‘The letter in its general character was correspond: nce with a public enemy or traitur, and was a kind of moral aid to the rebex. It was a letter of friendship and sympathy all the way through, and showed that there wasone person who, forgeiting what was due to the country and due to the rebellion, stretched forth his hand in friendly salutation. Ab American Senator sends hia friend to the rebels with a valuable improvement in firearms, and a traitor going forth on his erraod of treason is announced as a geutle- man reliable in every respect. The writer of such a letter must belong to the rebel chief and surely must be disquatified for a seat in the Senate. A person who is so mixed up in the rebellion most be a traitor, But sain, the writer of the letter on the 7th of September, 1861, puts forth another letter to Mr. Fitch, defending the first letter, and again in debate in the Senate ho declares that he hos done nothing that he would not do over again under the same cirevmstances. There could be nothing in apolcgiving, that the Senator knew not that war had commenced. It ‘wag not true, for war had actually commenced. If we could act apon sympathy, it would pleasant 30 to record our votes as to produce no unpleasant pergonal effet; but we should act weakly and ignobly if we fail in tho double duty which called upon to perform—first, to the Senate apd its members; and second, to the coun- try, which has a right to oar truest and most uuhesitat- ing devotion, If there be among us any person who, since the rebellion hoisted its tlag aud pomted its cannon, has failed in that loyalty which is an inviolable obligation of the constitution, even if his offence be not om the deepest dye of treason, ho is unworthy of a goat in the Senate; and be assared that our country, which knows 80 weli how to pardon all that is pardonable, ex- pects that no such person, whatever may be his present professions, shall be recognized any longer as a Senator. Do not hesitate, then, ‘The case 1s clear, and impartial history will go record it. No argument, no authority, no extenuation, can rem: ve unmitigated crime. There isa courage which belongs to this peaceful chamber as much as to the battie field, and now is the occasion. Above all, let no false tenderness substitute sympathy for judg- ment, and remember well that by blasting a faithless Sen- ator you will elevate the Senate and inspire the country. Mr. Lang, (rep.) of Ind., said’ that he should say nothing on this subject bat for the interest he felt in bis State. He referred to his contest tor a seat hore with Mr. Height three years ago, but he said that he had now no memory of the outrage perpetrated on him and against the honor of Indiana. He had no personal ill teeling towards his colleague. He would do his collexgue the justice to say tat on the drst day of the session he came ‘to him and told him that he (Bright) desired and de- manded a full iavestigation of the charges made agwi him. He would give him the benefit of @ manly avow: But when the letter was written his colleague must have known that war was to result from this unholy, unpro- yoked and God accursed rebellion. War was actually Jevied on the government at that time. Before the Ist of March tho rebellion was inavgurated and Davis elected as its hoad, All the waters of auother deluge cannot wash outgthe stain of that treason. At such a time a letter was written by a member of the Senate to the arch high priest of the rebeilion, addressii.g h the very tile which we to-day are resisting = ‘Th r might have been written carelessly; but,of all thingselse, it was to introduce firearms. there was to be no war, why should Davis want improved firearms? He (Mr. Lane) believed that the letter, unexplained, was sufficient evidence of treason, and sending improved’ firearms w: aidand comfort to tho enemy. But he (Mr. Lane) con- sidered the second letter of Mr. Bright to Mr. Fitch much worse than-the first. He (Mr. Lane) had nothing to say against abolitionism; for, if the Senator from Massachu- setts (Mr. Sumner) let that pass, he (Mr. Lane) had nothing to add, But in that letter to Mr. Fitch his col- Joague said he was entirely opposed to the coercive policy of the government, Ho (Mr. Lane) was in favor of all the coercive poliey ernment, and would tax every dollar to carry war. He (Mr. Lane) would carry on the war till eve individual was bankrupt. He would give his cont off his back,and even die ina pauper's graveand be buried by the hands of charity, rather than close the war. (Applause in tho galleries.) The Vick Presipent ordered the galleries to the right of the Chair to be cleared, which was don | Mr. Lang spoke at some length on the deadly heresy of opposing coercion, which he said found no favor in the ‘oud State of Indiana, Indiana, thank God Almighty, as participated in no defaat and no repulse, fo let it be to the end, and let the people say Amen, The war was waged for the coercion of the rebels, and ho thought we have a perfect right to confiscate the property of the rebels, even slaves, though he was opposed to wholesalo emancipation, unless accompanied by some schemo of colonization. But ‘as this letter, now stands, without any explanation, he must yote for expulsion. Mr. Bricut enid if he bad known he was to be arraigned for treason and [i im f war on the country, he would have omployed counsel. If he had known there was to be a regular party organization against him, and letters and speeches presented, he should have been better pre- pared, If slander could have driven him away he should bo whore the Senator from Massachusetts says be ought to bomin the South, He had boon chaygod by & calumnious sheet—the Cincinnati Zing. with being a Brigadier General in hs ae ret. 4 iil move calumnicus sheet—the Louiay = th reeraiting for the rebel army in Kentucky, and thay iowa written the letter read to-day. He paid no atéen- on to these until old friends wrote him. He then wrote the other ietter, which was more offensive here than the Soreeee. Ho had no relations with the Senator from Mas- me Dae ts, but he felt kindly towards other Senators and What he said was to unbiassed, unprajudiced Senators, J Would Simply state the facts of the case. If he was Ber ty Of treagon it was ior writing the letter to Jeff. Da- vis, Imvoducing nas B. Lincoln, Mr. Lincoln was bore ia Phuade pple. Sad reared there, aud came West to live. He did the largest ‘business of any man in Indi ag wholesale merchant established a gharacter for truth and probity ; he then went to Texas and engaged in the raising of cattle; he came herd efterwards to forward the project of the Pacific Railroad. He (Mr. Bright) had no recol lection of this letter, but he must have written it. He had also given Lincoln a letter to Capt. Franklin, and would read both to show they wore similar in language. When he addressed the letter to Davis by his title he was only foilowing the example of Senators in this body at that time; andgif Lincoln had told him he had an im- Proved cotton gin, he should have mentioned jt, the same ashe did the firearms. If any one had asked him for such a letter after the prociaiation of the President he would have answered *‘No.”” Ho did not believe there would be war. Ho did not belfeve that mad fanatics, under the lead of the Senator from Masssacbusetts, would bring aboutsuch a state of things as now exist. He did not think the South guiity of such mad folly, After he wrote the letter employes of the government sent documents to Davis and Benjamin, &c. He went himself that summer forty miles into Virginia, not dreaming there would be 2 gun fired, and he believed it only when the sad reality came. Ho had his own political opinions after twenty- seven years political service, and would not give them up for threats of expulsion, Fort Warren or the halter. Noman should charge him with want of fealty to the flag of his country, did not anticipate war, because he believed in resident whom he was sorry ho helped to elevate to his position, and who was false to his trust. Mr. Frexnpen, (rep.) of Me., asked if the Senator did not suppose there would be any war, what occasion was there to suppose that Davis wanted an improvement ot ‘Bor id he tr repeat Ir. Brion said he bad eaid tedly that he had no recoliection of giving the letter to Mr. Lincoln. Ho had before given Mr. Lincoln a letter to Mr. Floyd, and if he had been in collusion with the South he would not hav: sent the improvement in arms to this government; he had no doubt that Floyd threw the matter overboard, and Lincoln bored him for another letter and he gave it. Mr. Sumer said the geutleman from Indiana intimated that there was some personal feeling againat him. Mr. Baicnr said he said no such thing. Mr. Soxoren said he had no personal feeling against the Senator. House of Representatives. Wasuivcron, Jan. 21, 1862. DEFEAT OF THE BILL LEVYING POSTAGE ON NEWSPAPERS CAR- OUTSIDE THE MAILS. The House proceeded to the consideration of the bill regulating the carriage of printed matter outside the mails, requiring the postage to be paid, &c. Mr. Courax, (rep.) of Ind., explained and advocated the bill. Mr. Morrm, (rep.) of Vt.,said the subject should bo considered asa postal measure, and not ae a means of raising revenue. The committee on Ways and Means will Propose a newspaper stamp dutyand a tax on telegraphic despatches. Mr. Buam, (rep.) of Mo., moved to commit the bill to the committee on Ways and Means, with instruction to re. Port a bill for a stamp tax, instead of postage on news- Papers. Mr. Riv1x, (rep.) of Ohio, moved to lay the subject on the table. Lost by 61 against 66. Mr. Conrax proposed & substitute, limiting its opera. tions to trains carrying the mails, which are delivered at the various post offices, and allowing newspaper dealers to receive packages at the same abatement as are allowed to regular subscribers, adding a tax of three cents on aly letters, money and collection packnges sent by express companies, and on all telegraphic messages, except thoso for the government or the press, which substitute be (fr. Colfax) preferred to the original details of the bile as drafted at the Post Office Department, and he wished to avold all reasonable objections that had been made He said the bill was unpopular with the widely circulated metropolitan press and the newspaper dealers, and he (ir. Colfax) had been severely criticised for reporting it. But the loyal public had insisted on “tax and fight,” in which he (Colfax) concurred. and the most natural sug- gestion was that all mailable matter should pay postage Therefore two bills were prepared. The one abolishing the franking privilege was distasteful to our members, ag it took from them a privilege they have enjoyed since the commencement of tho government, but they were patriotic enough to pass it. The other was this bill, withdrawing a privilege of ex- emption from postage enjoyed since 1845 by the press’ which they denounce as unjust and unwise. He argued that for the first fifty-six years of our government Con_ gress bad construet! the constitutional provision to ostab. lish post offices and post roads © give the department the exclusive right of carrying mailable matter. In 1845 however, oxpresses were authorized to carry newspapers, provided they were not intended for immediate distribu, tion to subscribers, but intended for sale as merchandise, out of which tho present system has expanded far be. yond what the !aw has granted. ‘Ihe result has becn that while in 1842 the newspaper postage, after the re- uction in rates, was near'y $300,000, in 1851 it had run down to $571,000—a loss of one-third, although the popu- lation bad increased one-third, and the letter postage two-thirds, Indeed the newspayer postage had fallen off ton per cont since last year, althongh the war has largely fucreased the circulation of the papers, and the postage will continue to fall off, Nor does it decrease the cost o¢ railroad service, which has increased from two hundred to three hundred per cent im the past nine years. From New York to Philadelphia $375 per mile is paid for railroad service, while the newspapers are maiuly carried outside of the mails in the very same traius, and the departmen: left to carry papers on distant routes where expresses don’t find it profitable. A man is fined five dollars for writing “ail weil” on a prepaid papers while at the same time, over a post route established by Congress, tons of papers go free. He also contended that subscribers would not pay as mueh under this bill as now: In Ohio they pay for the Cleveland dailies one shilling per woek, or $6.50 per year, while through the mail, th® postage of seventy-vight cents per yoar added, tho total cost is $578. InNorthern Indiana, paying twenty cents per week for Chicago dailies, cost $1040 per year, By mail subscription and postage would cost $8 66. Th? Cincinnati dailies insist that 60,000 papers go thence every morning. By their own calculation, at tho lowest postage, $50,000 of the postage is thrown away, and about the samo at Chicago. Small as their calculation is, compared to New York, and then adding other great newspaper centres, like Baltimore, Bostoa, Philadelphia, St. Louis. &c., he believed that over a million dollars would be realized, and if so, with the franking privilege abolished, and the California mail paid for out of the treasury, as provided by law, and the supposed impossibility of making the department self-supporting, would be nearly» if not quite realized. , After speaking *an hour, his time was extended, by unanimous consent, and Mr. Colfax read a letter from the Postmaster General, favoring tho bill; also a letter from ‘a valued friond, who urged him to give up the bill, as the presswould rol! a mountain on him and crush him, Ho said his only rule was to stand by his convictions, though the heavens fall, and if he could aid in relieving the people of the tax necessary to make up the Post Office doficit, and this without adding a burthen to any one, tho mountain might fall and his public life end. He corrected an alleged error in his quotation of law made by the Philadelphia Inquirer, by reading the law of 1852 and 1853, which modified the law of 1845 quoted by the Inquirer, and be said he though he could hardly hope for the passage of this bill, with the able me- tropolitan press against it, so potential in forming public opinion as they are, He had performed his duty to the department and to the public revenues. ‘Mr. Homan, (opp.) of Ind., suggestod a proviso, that this act shall not apply and operate on newspapers for distribution within fifty miles of their place of publica. tion. Mr. Monnitt, (rep.) of Vt., said any legislation on this subject should be strictly im relation to the Post Office Department, not as a means of replonishing the treasury. He was unwilling and it would be improper to state what the Committes of Ways aud Means contempiat but be might remark that they propose levying tax in some form, perhaps by stamp, om all newspapers, and also a taz on telegraphic communications. While ho would cordially co-operate with the Chairman of tho Post Oilice Committee (Mr. Colfax) in relieving the burthens of that department, ho believed, if we compel all newspapers to go into the mails, wo shall be compelled to pay large™ prices for the transmission of mails, when the contracts aro renewod. Hence there could be but little, if any, pe. cuniary relief to the department. Mr. Bram, (rep.) of Mo., moved to commit the bili to the Committee of Ways and Means, with instructions to bring in one imposing stamp duties on newspr,pors in lieu of postage, Ho belioved a revenue of thro millions can thus be collected, and with more readiner.¢, much Ican expense and with greater certainty than hy the present system of charging. Mr. Rivons said the Post Ofice Department was os. tablished for the transmrasion of letters without espectal reference to printed matter. He did not see why the manufacture of newspapers should be more the Subject of tax than the manufacture of pig iron or any other article. He moved to lay the whole subject on the “Me.
