THE DEMOCRACY THE GAINERS. The Speech a Venomous Vomit---Vile, Brutal, # Full. of Malignity and a Deadly Bomerang, Providing for Attendance at the Philadelphia Convention. WAsuINGvon, June 1, 1872. Debates in Both Houses Over the Final AdjournmentThe Business Before Both Branches. Both Houses of Congress, instead of finishing the Public business, were cecupied most of the day with the question of final adjournment. The House first fixed five o’clock on Tuesday as the time, but the Senate, which generally wants its own way, and is indignant when it cannot have it, chose a different anda not very straightforward course. Instead of agreeing to the extension voted for by the House *the®Senators rescinded the resolution § for final adjournment, an action which is without hy effect unless it receives the assent of the lower branch of Congress, This assent the House refused, but agreed by avote of 126 to 65 to extend the session to the 10th inst., in order to give the Senate time to complete its business. There is much feeling, and at the same timeg much generosity, among Representatives ¥ on this question. It is not forgetten that the Senate first fixed an early day for adjournment and then spent weeks in discussing such unim- portant measures as the French arms sale and a Tariff bill which it had no constitutional right to originate. In this way, while the House was work- ing ,industriously under its strait-jacket rules, much time was wasted by the Senate, and when the Umit of time fixed by the latter boay was reached the public business was in such a muddle that adjournment was impossible. Senators Sum- ner and Schurz still further wasted the time of the session by thelr speeches yesterday, so that now any due regard for the public business makes ang adjournment impossible before the time agreed to by the House to-night. The only appropriation bilis unfinished are the Sundry Civil, Fortification and the River and Harbor bills. These are all in the Senate, and they will ff Probably be held there in order to force the House ‘to concert of action gn the Ku Klux and Civil Rights bills, passed by the Senate and now before the House. The Tarif bill is in the conference J committee, and no business of pressing importance, unless those bills are so considered, Is before the House, The report on the last-named bill will probably be made on Monday, and on Tues- day Mr. Dawes will move that the House take a recess till Friday, so that members may have an opportunity to attend the Philadelphia Convention, The business transacted in the House to-day was under the two-third rule, and was unimportant. The session ing the House proposition to the 10th inst. Mr. Chandler adjourn on was partic- ularly severe in his denunciations of the speeches & made by Messrs, Sumner and Schurz yester- day. He repeatedly denounced them as “brutal assaults on a man who had no opportunity to de- fend himself.” those who urgently demand the passage of the Ku Kiux and Amendatory Enforcement acts, proposed a further extension until June 29, which was voted Division for tae week ending to-day, $216,000, For pablic depoutte.. seecees Nati‘ynal Bank circulation outstanding. .

M., and said he motion because he believed this exten- ssary in order to avoid an extra session. THURMAN, (dem.) of Ohio, said if the sesson should be extended beyond the date of the Phila- deiphia Convention, it would probably last until the 4 ist of July. THE STEAMBOAT BILL. Mr. CHANDLER, (rep.) of Mich., moved to non- aconcur in the report of the conference committee, on the Steamboat bill, and appoint a new commit- tee of conference, upon which he (Chandler) did not wish to serve. Mr. TuvurMAN hoped the motion to non-concur would not be agreed to, as its effect would probably be to continue in operation a series of onerous and oppressive laws. THE POLITICAL VOLCANOES, The motion to non-concur went over without ac- tion, and the Appropriation bill being informally #laid aside, the discussion of the adjournment ques- tion was continued, Mr. FLANAGAN, (Rep.) of Texas, agreed with Mr. Thurman that the Senate would probably be pro- A longed by political speeches, but said that the re- 4 sponsibility would be upon the enemies of the ad- ministration. The Senator from Massachusetts (Sumner) and the Senator from Mis- souri (Schurz) had come into the Chamber and, like two volcanoes, had poured forth their political lava, thinking the Senate must adjourn on Monday, and that there would be ni Hoey. would be answered, and answered success- ‘uly.

Mr, FLANAGAN—I wish my friend every prosperity in the world, but Iam talking now, (Laughter.) Mr. FLANAGAN continued his remarks at length, censuring severely the liberal republicans. particu- larly Mr. Schurz, who, he said, had not got along very well in his own country, but was now win the admiration of the democrats here by making eloquent speeches about the corruptions in the gov- ernment of this country. Mr. CHANDLER, from the Committee on Com- merce, reported without amendment the House bill fixing the compensation of gaugers and meas- urers at the port of Boston; also without amend- ment Mr. Harlan’s bill for the protection of saw- mill owners on the Mississippi River. Mr. CHANDLER moved to lay the adjournment. resolution on the table for the purpose of pro- ceeding with the conference report on the Steam- boat bill, and he read a number of telegrams to the President from St. Louis, Boston, Buffalo, Detroit, Cineinnatt and Chicago urging the passage of the ill. Mr. CoE said Mr. Chandler evidently wished to have Congress adjourn on Monday, so as to make anextra session necessary, and he tioned the wisdom of that course, Mr. CHANDLER Said that Mr, Cole misapprehended his object, which was to secure action on a very important measure affecting a great interest in this country. Chandler's motion was lost. Yeas, 14; nays, 36. Mr. Wilson’s amendment was then rejected. Yeas, down, and, finally, at about midnight, the House f top nae Bt resolution was agreed to. The Tariff Committee Adjourned. ‘The Conference Committee on the Taryf bill ad- journed to-night without reaching a definite con- clusion of their labors. They have gone over the § tariif portion of the bill, agreeing to those portions or sections regarding which there is no material difference between the two houses, and have laid aside other sections for future consideration which threatened to provoke debate. The present con- Aition.of the bill is consequently so Incomplete that tne committee themselves have a very confused “idea of it. The Death of Mr. Bennett. The impression created in the capital by thef eath of Mr. Bennett is one of deep regret and pro- found sympathy. No man intimately connected with public affairs and instrumental in forwarding the best interests of the country was ever more Bincerely mourned by those who know the import- ance of the work accomplished by the late proprie- tor of the HeraLp, On all hands were heard the deepest expressions of sorrow at Mr. Bennett's death, Governor Reed, of Florida, Triumphs. Lieutenant Governor Day, of Florida, has resigned to avoid the expense of the quo warranto trial pending in the supreme Court of that State, which involves the question of his title to the office. Trustworthy advices from Tallahassee are received to the effect that Governor Reed, who has the ap- pointing power, will appoint a democrat, probably W. D. oxbam,who was the coutestant against Day. The Gallant Tars at Marseilles. advices received from the European squrdron to- day, are to the effect that the entire credit of sav- ing the shipping in the harbor of Marseilles is due to Captain Shufeldt, who,was in command, Rear Ad- miral Alden being at the time in Paris. It was under the direction of Captain Shufeldt that the boats were so promptly manned and the shipping§ in the hartor saved from destruction. The Red Cloud Delegation. The Indian delegation now in this city will visitg the Navy Yard on Monday next, Secretaries Delano and Robeson accompanying them. They will be taken through the various workshops and witness the firing of the great guns. The Revenue Marine Corps. The following changes in the Revenue Marine Corps have been made :— Third Lieutenant John Morrieon, Jr., detached from the revenue steamer Grant, and ordered to the Fessenden at Detroit; First Assistant Engineer George Denamer, from the Wilderness, at New Arleans, to the Jobnson, at Milwaukee ; First Assist- ant Engineer John R. Dailey, from waiting orders to the Fessenden; Second Assistant Engineer J. D. Neal, from waiting orders to the Jouuson. The Authorized Payments Under the Amnesty Act. In;the United States District Court here orders were made for the payment over to three parties of this city of the proceeds of the sales of their prop- erty under the Confiscation act. According to the Amnesty act they became entitled to whatever sum ‘the Uniteg States have derived from the contisca- tion of their estates, less the costa, which were comparatively large, amounting in one of the cases to $1,600, | Replacing Destroyed or Defaced Bonds, The President has approved the biil providing for’ the issue of bonds in place of the destroyed or de- faced bonds of the United States. Withdrawal of Three Per Cents, The Secretary of the Treasury has directed the Assistant Treasurer at New York to withdraw $1,300,000 three per cents—$5,000 numbering from B11 to 3,86Q.1nclusyO; £49,000 numbering fram 4.042 Hf courtesy required that we should tal restdue of the public business lie December or Fs renonyend fhe ‘tr; Montox, (rep. of Ind.), said he was tn favor of a arning as soon as possible after disposing of i iM the public business, but not before.

Mr. Moron said it was true thar the democrats had worked faithfully and had not obstructed the business of the Senate; but it was not true that the administration party would be responsible for the calling of an extra session, if one should be called. The speeches made yes- terday were not made in the interest of the administration or by its friends, and he thought they were enjoyed a good deal more on the Demo- cratic than on the other side of the chamber, al- thongh the profit to be realized from these speaches might be easily calculated, The majority had worked hard to dispose of the public busines: before the time fixed for the adjournment, and they probably would have done it but for the extra- ordinary interruption yesterday, course, they were not responsibl Mr. CassiRty, (dem.) of Cal, sald the minority were, he believed, unanimous In the opinion that an extra session would be agreatevil, and that they had done and would do nothing to make it for which, of| \KLING'S LITTLE RECAPITULATION. Mr. CONKLING, (rep.) of N. Y., advocated rescind- ing the resolution to adjourn on Monday and leay- ing the end of the session open, 80 as not to put it in the power of anybody to again embarrass the Senate in the transaction of the public business, as was done yesterday, enator froifl Massachusetts (Mr. Summer), said Mr. Conkling, having given notice that he fonnd himself assaulted in the report of the com- Amittee touching the sales of arms, interposdd yesterday and moved to postpone the great Appropriation bill upon which the movements of the governments depend, and then launched upon the Senate a pointed essay which required four hours to pass his lips, and in which was made no reference to any vindication that he needed against the report of the committee touching the sale of arms. When five o'clock had come and we had sat here weary with want of sleep and exhausting labor, the Senator from Missouri (Mr. Schurz) rose with a portentous pile of manu- sertp ‘ore him, and we were reminded that cour- tesy required us then to take a recess in order that Senators who were unaccustomed to go without hi food mij refresh themselves, and in order that the interval might command a more showy: and imposing audience than was at that moment waiting upon the Senator from Missouri. I ventured to suy then thatit was not a questionof courtesy, that i thought the question was made af sterner stull, and I repeat it. It was the advent of two speeches in the Senate which, if they were appropriate anywhere, might be made, upon the hustings and which, if there were no other objection to them, Were made ata time when they wr ed the sion, when they drove the impor- tant bills remaining to destruction, unless some postponement could be gained. But THE DAY HAVING BEEN SQAUANDERED and Monday, at noon, being set as the mete and bound of our continuance here, we were told that ea recess In order that, with strength replenished, the evening and the night might go down to the tomb of hours, J will not say wasted, out devoted by. the Senator from Massachusetts (Mr. Sumner) to the reading of a speech, if that word describes tt, which he will live long enough to regret—a speech aimed at another, but which the humble Senator will find a boomerang, returning now and in the far future with a_ heavy, if] not a deady blow upon him. Our friends ‘on the other side voted for that recess, which some of us tried t,yvain to resist, and the evening was, as Ihave sald, Wasted, at least as regards the ad- vancement of business awaiting our action, and now this morniug we are engaged in what seems to b : RATHER A GAME OF ROUNCE upon the queatiow whether we cannot so mani and oxplo{t this qnestion as to throw npon the President the respousibility of calling, or omitting: to call, an extra session.

So it 1 in this instance, ALL THE LIFETIME OF THE SENATOR FROM MA CHUSETTS, all his learning, all his statesmanship, all hls knowl- edge of international low, all his knowledge of na- tional affairs, all his opposition to siavery, all his past work, he is now attempting to undo. From the high 'estate to which his past efforts had raised him the Senator fell yesterday, and he attacked indirectly, if “not tly, every fact of his life; indirectly, If not directly, he assailed the party which he he made; indt- his own child, I SSA- rectly, if not direcily, he stabbe know the Senator will not receive ad- vice from me, and I know I am_ not capable of giving it; but, in conclusion, I will say this:—He spoke yesterday of the life-boatj fof the nation; and I teil him to-day that the tru life-boat of the nation is the repubiican part. which, freighted with the hopes of mankind, has passed in sa d triumph through one of the Emost terrible wars that ever was Known since na- tious began.

The following message was received from the Matus vetoing the bill for the relief of J. Milton jest — TO THE SENATE OF THE UNITED STATES:—I have examined the bill entitled ‘‘An act for the relief of| J. Milton Best,” and being unable to give it my ap- on. I return the same to the Senate, the fouse in which it originated, without my signature. The bill appropriates the sum of $20,000 to compensate Dr. J, Miller Best for the destruction of his dwelling house, with its contents, by order of the commanding officer of the United States mill- tary forces at Paducah, Ky., on the 26th of March, 1864. It appears that this house was one of a considerable numt destroyed for the purpose of giving open range to the guns of a Unit States fort. On the day preceding the destruction the house had been used as a cover for rebel troops attacking the fort, and apprehending arenewal of the attack the com- manding officer caused the destruction of the house. This, then, is @ clatin for com- pensation on account of the ravages of war, ft cannot be denied that payment of this claim would invite the presenta- tion of demands for very large swins of money, and such is the supposed magnitude of the claims that may be made against the government for nec and umgvoidabie destruction of property by the army that I deem it proper to return this bill for reconsideration, It is @ general principle of international and municipal law that all property is held subject not only to be taken by the gowerninent for public uses, in which case under the ¢onstitution of the United States the owner is entitled to just com- pensation, but also subject to be temporarily § occupied or even actually destroyed in times of great public danger, and when ‘the public safety demands it, and in this jatter case governments do not admit @ legal obligation on their part to com- ensate the owner. The temporary’ occupation of injuries to, and destruction of property caused by actual and necessary military operations, is generally considered to fall within the last mentioned preamble. If a government makes compensation under such circu: tances, it is a matter of bounty rather than of strict legal right, If it is deemed proper to make vompensa- tion for such losses, I suggest for the cons \deration of Congress whether it would not be utter by general legislation to provide some means for the juscertainment of the damage in all similar cases, ‘and thus save to claimants the expense, incynve- nience and delay of attendance upon Congress, and atthe same time save the government from the E danger of having imposed upon it vetitions or te nd in the A & i ference, \t to let Bl dinary essay 1 looked BY livered in th in the Giode this morning for the Senator's speech, @ tended to iIntu py may be s either of them, f By Mr. HAMILTON, Of Md,—House bill for the relief) of Charles P. 8.

Mr, CONKLING said he should ment, because since he had spoken he had been in- formed that there was a disposition on the part of, the Hiouse to grant a furth tension if the Sen- ate desired, and further, by reason of the Conven- tion next week, many members of both houses, would be abse Mr, WILsoy, (rep.) of Mass., thought it best to ke now the ten days the House has given, en- deavor to finish up the business, and, if it could not be done, ask the House for a further extension, The Senate had made a great mistake in fixing so early a day of adjournment.

Mr. CAMERON, (rep.) of Pa., had for fifty years seen’ parties rise, culminate and fall in the coun- try, and never seen an instance in which men who abandoned their parties did not claim still to ve meinbers of it. But the result was always their own destruction, because the people would no more trust a traitor to his party than they would trust # traitor to his country. The amendment of Mr. Pomeroy was rejected— Mr. Poot then moved that the Senate adjourn, his object being, he stated, to compel an adjourn: tet on Monday, which would necessitate an extra session. The motion to adjourn was lost by a large ma- jority, and the Senate then concurred in the amend- ment of the House extending the time to Monday, June 10—Ayes, 42; nays, 13, Mr. LOGAN called up the bill appropriating $10,000) for an equestrian statue of General Rawlins, and it was passed.

President, and endorse most c dially the resolutions setting forth the principles on which the appeal is made to the whole people of the United States. A century is closing upon our experience of re- ublican government, and while that lapse of time has witnessed agrent expansion of our free institu. tions, yet it has not heen without illustration also of grave dangers to the stability of such a syst of those successtully encountered. It is needless to speak of those which remain to menaca us. The most threatening are provided against, as firmly believe, in the wise and pacific measures proposed by your platform, It has come to be the practice of those elevated rd public ser- his results in vice t a means tor . substituting a mere pa organization for the gov- ernment itself, which constitutes a control amen- able to no laws or moralitics, tinpairs all inde- pendent thought, enables a‘few to rule the many and makes personal allewiance the road to ‘favor, It 4 forecast to pereeive — that will, wreck all Ibertics unless there be interposed a timely reform of the ministration from its highest to its lowest station, which shall ni nt abuses but likewise take away Wearied with the contentions thit a in avarice of spoils, the country dem and resents the effort of oMctals tod into partisan hostilities; and I will any movement promising a sure de! perils Which have been connected with the war. in powe j Itissafe to says that only those are now to be fes ma ch comes of an abu: ngement. ‘Th dd, Whi ent es » of victory into per= Union Is fortified by more power than ever before, and it remains as an imperative duty to cement our nationality by a perfect " reconciliation ‘A wide spread sympathy is aroused in behalf of those States of the South which, long after the termination of resistance to the right ub federal authority, are still plundered under the guise of loyalty, and tyranrized over in the name of freedom. Along with this feeling is present, too, the recog- nition that in complete amnesty alone can be Aiound hope of any return to constitutional gov- ernment as of old, as any development of a more enduring unity and = broader nationat life in the future, Amnesty, however, to be efficacious must be real, not nominal— genuine, not evasive.

All will rightly credit such conduct “as but'a mock- Ry the Australasian mail we have files from New fgjety of amnesty, and demand an administration which can give better warrant of honesty in’ the reat work of reconstruction and reform in the array of sectional interests. A republic so wide- spread as ours 1s never eutirely safe from sevioas conflicts. These become still more — dangerous when complicated with qu where unequal burdens are believed to be tuposed on one part at the expense of another part.

The country is thereby invited to its fraukest utterance, and se tions which would revolt at being denied a voic out of deference to other sections, would con- tent to acquiesce in a general judgment, “honestly elected.” If local government be, as it undoubtedly is, the most vital ae of our institutions, m ad. vance will be made toward establishing it by ena- bling the people to pass upon questions so nearly affecting their well being dispassionately, througir their local representation. The precipi which would force a controlling dec A on tax or tariff throngh a Presidential candidacy is only a disguised form of centralization, involving hazardous reaches of itive Lnduenc A con- clusion will be much more impartially determined, and with less disturbance to trade and finance, by appealing to the most truthful and diversified local expression. Industrial issues can be thus, likewise, emancipated from the power of great monopolies, and each representative held to fidelity towards his immediate constituents. These are the most promi- nent features of that general concert of action which proposes to replace the pies nt administration by, one more in sympathy with the aspirations of the: masses of our countrymen. Of course such concert cannot be attained by thrusting ‘y minor or past diiference into the foreground, and it Will be for the people, therefore, to determine whether these objects are of such magnitude and present urgency as to justify them in deferring other adjustments until the country shall be first restored to a free ed by oflictal dictation; and ours becomes in free republic, released from apprehensions of a central domina- tion. Without referring in detail to the various other propositions embraced in the resolutions of the Convention, but seeing how they all contemplate @ restoration of power to the people, peace to the nation, purity to the govern- ment that they condemn the attempt to es- tablish an ascendancy of milliary over civil rule, and atirm with explicitness the maintenance of equal freedom to all citizens, irrespective of race, previous condition or pending disabilities, L have only to pledge again my | co-operation, I have the honor to remain, very respeettully, yours, B.
