Davis, of Chicago, last even- ing, in which he admitted, they say, that the delegates to the republican national convention from his (Davi¢') district will e for Logan. They say this makes them sure of a solid delegation from Illinois. PROTECTION FOR OUR PIG, 8pecial Dispatch to The Bee. WasniNgToN, March 13.—A breezy meeting of the house committee is an- ticipated to-morrow. e committes will attempt to draft a substitute bill for all the bills refeired to it on the expora- tion of Amearican pork, which are known a8 retaliatory bills. The committee's ‘members come from districts largely in- terested in pork raising, and favor a bil that is decisive and will **bring Germany to the seratch.” g BISMABCK'S INSULT, ‘Wasumwaron, March ‘The house committee on foreign affairs to-day con- sidered the action of Bismarck upon the Laskor resolution. Mr. Phelps (rep. N." J.) proposed that a report be submitted the house, declaring in effect that the wise course of the secretary of state had relieved the house from the necessity of any further action. Mr. Eaton (rep. ) said the act of Bismarck was an insult, and as such should be resented i terms which would leave no doubts of il emphatic disapproval. A variety of views intermediate between those of Phelps and Eaton, who represented the extremes, were expressed by other mem- bers of the committee. Suggestions were made that the words condemning the act of the German chancellor should be ac- companied by expressions of regard for the German nation. Mr., Rico (dem. Mass.) said, that while he believed the stato department had left the matter in the best possible position, yet as an in- sult had been directed to the house of representatives, that body should ex- press in dignified terms its resontment. The matter, he thought, ought not to be left entirely with the department ot state, Further consideration of the sub- ject was referred to a sutcommittee con- sisting of Curtin, Eaton,Phelps and Rice IT WILL NOT DOWN, ‘Wasnineroy, March 13, —Representa- ive Willis says another etfort to pass the 1l extending the bonded whiskey period will be made within the next few days, immediately after the passage of the pos- tal appropriation bill. ~ He says there is un understanding that no appropriation bill will be reported to antagonize the measure until a vote on it has been so- cured., MILITIA MATTERS, The house committee on militia has agreed to report with favorable recom- mendation Kepresentative Connolly’s bill for spocial and uniform instruction for state wilitia, The committee also agreed to report favorably with amendments Representative Strait's bill, reducing the annual appropriation for the benefit of militia, from $20,000 to $6,000, the same be ":rportiolwd among the states and territories. CONPIRMED, Post chaplains—Rev, Ebenezer A. Brady of Iowa, and Rev, Wm. H. Beott of Illinois. STOPPING GOLD COINAGE. The house committee on coinage, weights and measures have agreed to re- ort favorably Representative Bland’s bill to stop the coinage of three and one dollar gold pieces, trade dollars and three cent nickels, and limit the coinage of gold double eagles to 20 per cent of the bul- lion purchase. JUDGE HALLETT FOR THE U, §. COURT, A delegation from Colorado, including ex-Senator Chilcott, waited on the presi- dent and urged the appointment of Judge Moses Hallett to the U 8. circuit judge- «hip vacated by Judge M: FORTY-EIGHTH CONGRESS, BENATE, WasHiNoT March 13.—Mr. Harri- #on (rep., Ind ) from the committee on territorios, reported favorsbly, and had placed on the calendar a bill for the ad- « mission of Dakota. Mr. Piumb (rep. Ks ) submitted a joint m’ufi:on. which was referred to the mittee o agriculture, appropriating $25,000, to be made immediately svaila ble under the direction of the commi O‘um of agriculture, for the suppression tle in Kansas, Within a fex minutes of the reference Mr. Plumb, from the com mitteo, reported the joint resolution favorably and asked immediate considera- tion, Mr. Sherman (rep., O.) objected to the resolutinn, He said: “*As 1 believe the object of that resolution will be best ac complished by the passage of the house plouro-pneumonia hill, [ will object for tho present, and hope the house bill may be taken up and passed as quickly as pos- sible.” Mr. Plumb gave notice that he would ca'l up the resolution. The bill for the relief of Fitz John Porter was taken up, and Mr. Mander- son (rep., Neb. ) addressed the senate in opposi to it. He had read Grant's paper in The North American Review, and that, with other reading, had aroused in him symp: and interest in the case. He felt it his duty then to exam- ine the matter. He was sorry to be compelled to say that, from the examina- tion given the case, whether this be a case of judicial review or the exercise of clemency, he felt bound to vote no on the bill. Mr. Manderaon said the bill was a re- straint upon the proper independence of the executive, Congress would stand aghast if such before it finding of a court martial. President Lincoln, after reading all the testimony. wrote Leonard Sweti: *'1 tell you he is guilty and ought to be hung.” "Corrobo- ration of this was given in the testimony of Robert Lincoln before the advisory board, Porter’s contempt for Pope was 80 evident that even McClellau had tobeg him to be loyal to his commander. This jealc lu{l among leaders had caused the downfall of many commanders in the ac- my of the east, McClellan, Hooker, Burnside, Mead and Pope, all by rea- won - of it. Thank God, tho ar mies of the west were free from it! Among McPherson, Logan, Sheridan and Sherman there was no heart burning—no jealousy existed. Mr. Logan (rep., IlL) then addressed thesenate. In 1860, he said, when the administering a of this country had coased to smooth the brow of the weary y who of all those that had been ad ing laws to put down the re- could believe that the power of law wonld be invoked in aid of sucha measuro as that before the senate? Trav- eling back to 1865 we found that forty-five days were consumed hy the court mar- tial in the trial of an individual who by its decision was discharged from the army of the United States. Part of that court martial were learned in civil law; all of them were conversant with military What is tho trial now going Is it the trial of Fitz John No, it wastried at the grave of those that were dead on the charge that the men who had tried this man had dis- torted the facts. Fitz John Porter had, after all these years, become the prose- cutor. It was the trial, not of the liv- ing, but of the dead. It was the trial at this late day of Abraham Lincoln rather than Fitz John Porter. Without des ing (said Mr. Logan facing the demo- cratic side of the chamber) to criticise the vote of any one, I hope I' may be pardoned for making one remark. It is perfectly natural that those who had beon engaged in rebellion against a great government like this, when they failed of success and have themselves been pardoned 'by the government, that they should, without examination of the evidence in the case, foel sym- pathy for those who during the war had been dismissed from the service of the United States. Why? Because they would naturally sympathize with them and say: ‘I have been forgiven, and therefore I forgive everybody else.” Continuing, Mr. Logan inquired, what it was that was before the court-martial that tried Porter. The question was: Had there been disobedience of orders? Mulitary law showed there was no excuse for the disobedience of a lawful order unless there existed a physical impossi- bility to its execution. Had there been such a physical impossibility shown? Not at all. He charged here, and defied contradiction, that Fitz John Porter was the cause of the loss ot the ficst battle of Bull Run. [Loud applause in the gallery, iustantly repressed by the pre siding officer, Mr. Frye (rep., Me.) who announced that under no cousideration could applausehe permitted, and if re- peated the offenders would be removed by the sergeant atarms.] Logan pro- ceeded: Gentlemen said that Porter could not obey Popa’s order. Why did not the gentlumen show that he tried to obey the order? The evidence anowed thut he never tried to do it. The road was open from 2 o'clock in the morning, and he did not move for tive hours after he was ordered to move. What excuse was given by Por- ter's friends? That it was a dark night. Logan would only say the evidence contradicted that statement. And suppose it was a dark night? He would appeal to every senator in the chamber, ot both cenfederate and federal armies, that such a reason for not moving under the circumstances was absurd. i on an exceedingly dark and rainy m‘fid' crossed the Mi ppi river, marched twenty-two miles and fought a battle, end, as he believed, gaved the field. Take all the marches of armies on either ide; take the marches of every corps, Il evidence showed that armies marched ht after night in total ‘ake all the great battles of history, and the same will be found. To fight the battle of Arbela, Alexander the Great. marched all night in the dark to reuch the battle ground in the morning So with Demosthenes at the battle of Syracuse. One of Nero's marches had been 8o swift, notwithstanding the dark- ness of the night, that the first that anpibal knew of his presonce was the gwalvinfi;l the head of his brother Ham- ilcar, which Nero threw over the city wall. The night marches of Napoleon were a distinguishing characteristic of his i methods and one of the secrets of Bucce: Logan sent to the k's desk and had read, from Mot 'ey’s *‘Duch Republic,” an instance in 1672, where 3,000 soldiers marched nine miles through an arm of the sea, that came up to their chins, to reach their goal i time, and they did it, and mccomplished their effire. Yet Portor’s distance from the point where ho was wanted was only nine miles on dry land, Will any American say an American solgier caunot do what a for- eigu soldier could do? In the name of Heaven and all that was good could not with 10,000 men, | d and had said he could not do it, what would be thought of him in the light of the extract just read! It was easy to de- nounce men long dead, for they spoke not; but it did not always succeed. Logan knew some gentlemen who were very anxious to show this man to have been unjustly condemned., He held in his hand the condemnation of five officers of the army. He read a number of those to show the offences for which the men wero dismissed; one for absence without leave,and in that case thegeneral announced that he regretted that he (the goneral) was not the instrument to inflict the punishment of death; and not one of these fifty-one had even had the benefit of a court martial, but were summarily dismissed by their officer. Who wa- that officer? It was Major Gieneral Rosecrans.

O, but they were only volunteer officers! Nobody cared for them. And that is the way things are running in the country at this time.

Charity for whom? for the benefit of a man who in the hour of trial failed to perform his duty to his country. Logan was charged, he said. with following this man too far. II he (Logan) was the only man in the senate chamber whose opinion opposed this bill, he would still be found maintaining that | j opinion. The senator from Now Jeraey (Sewall) had had a letter read from Gen. Grant. If any man in the senate had more respect for Gen. nt than he (Logan), he did not know who that man was. He would say nothing to detract from the well earned fame of General Grant., But he would be permitted to say that as a lawyer General Grant could not be regarded as firat-class, It had been said there was no battle on August 20, 1862, and so Porter could not be guilt; Well, then if there was a battle on the 20th he was guilty, according to the views of Porter's friends. Logan then read a letter from General Grant to Porter in which he (Grant) said he hsd condemned Porter 0a 1psufficient information. That is since Gieneral Grant had ascertained that there was no battle fought on August 29. Then, he said, Porter was not guilty. In this Logan frankly agroed with Gen- eral Grant. The gentlemen not like federal testimony. They waut confederate testimony; they wanted confederate tes- timony. He would therefore take con- federate testimony. Logan then read from the statements of General Lee to show there was a battle of the 20th, and as Goneral Lee said, *‘raged with great fury.” Logan could prove by tha testi- mony of every union officer that there was such a battle. Sewell said there was no question of the fact that there had been heavy fighting during the day but it was by 1solated brigades. Logan said there evidently was one *‘isolated” brig- ade that did not fight, [laughter], and no battle was fought in these times in which all the forces of both sides were simultaneously engaged. 1f the gentle- man admitted there was a battle on tie Oth, that settled the case. Instead of there being 25,000 troops in charge of Longstreet in front of Porter, as was claimed, Logan said it was proved there were not 5,000 men in Porter's front. Gen. Longstreet and several other gentlemen that belonged to the confederate urmy had tried to make this thing as easy as possible fur Porter, but Logan had taken their reports, made at the time, and analyzed them and found how things were, and that wss betier testimony than the memory of these men twenty yeacslater. When Pope concluded to attack the enemy along the whole line, and issued his afternoon or- der, he expected Porter to be where he ought to be, instead of which Porter was some miles away. The evidence of Pope who 1ssued the crder, and of the orderly who delivered 1t, said it could not have been delivered r than 5:30. The sun set that day at and if he had only got the order at the time indicated he had still nearly two hoars of daylight, This man Porter, be- ing a wiser man than Pope, and knowing better when to tight than Pope did, did not fight. The lust assault of the Wel- lington guards upon Napoleon was made after 8 o'clock, when the Iron Duke gave the famous order, “‘Up, guards, and at tnem!” and notwithstanding the lateness of the hour, that charge had passed into nistory. But our band-box soldier could not fight until he got ready. When the order was handed to Porter he folded it and put it in his pocket, General Sakes was by his side, but that officer and Gen- eral Morrell said that Porter had not told thom he was ordered to fight, The only order that Sturgis received .that day from Porter was not to fight but to mov his troops back to Manassas., So th there could not be found in all the evi- ence a single order that Porter gave to engage the enemy even in a skirmisi. Assuming that he had received, even at 5:30, an order to move on the enemy's flanks and rear if ble, why did he not obey it? Logan defied any friend of Porter to show that he obqux any order at the time. He utterly failed to obey any order to fight. The only rule of warfare Logan knew was to strike the enemy where you find him And to tell him you were not to fight because you feared you would bo whipped was to ‘tell him a new principle of military action. He bad never heard that till he heard of Fitz John Porter. It had been said that Porter had been a good soldier, and that the next day after this disobed ience he had done well, That was not the point here He was murely insisting that Porter had disoboyed his orders. 8o far as the argument for sympathy was con , all men i distress were en- titled to our sywpathy.
