to-day appointed three commissioners for
the adjudication of cases arising under the
fugitive slave law.
But seven arrests were made to-day.
There seems to be concurrent jurisdiction
claimed by military authorities regarding
the fugitives under their protection, there
fore it cannot be said the law has free
course.
This afternoon about fifty citizens of the
adjoining counties in Maryl land, proceeded
to the W hite House, accompanied by Messrs.
Criss6eld, Culvert, Webster, and Lowery,
Representatives to Congress from that State,
who had conversation with the President
regarding the interests of their constituents,

say the President promised response on

this region are tolerably active, but our

the bush whackers lead an uneasy life A

some canvalescent soldiers were attacked

xxxVII CONGRESS SECOND SESSION

WASHINGTON, May 20.
HoUsE.-Mr. Colfax said not single
person of any color from any State had
petitioned for this repeal, no Post Master
General had recommended it, no public
opinion demanded il. 1t would not only
allow negroes to be mail contractors and,
therefore, officers of the Government but
Indians and Chinese also.
1t would impair the security of the mails
for, in some States, blacks, Indians and
Chinese are not allowed to hold offices.
1t would also allow slave-holding con-
tractors to use their slaves as mail carriers
accordingly instead of free whites.
The hour fixed for the Consideration of
the confscation bill having arrived, the
vote goes over until tomorrow.
Mr.. Elliott, chairman of the Select Com
mittee, reported the confscation bills. He
said the war originated in the rebel States,
and is carried on by rebel citizens against
the Government. This is precisely she
character of the war.
Appropriate legislation may be soon de-
manded concerning the rebel States.
These bills concern the people, and Con-
gress may make the property of the rebels
aid in paying the expenses arising from the
rebellion. The lands owned by rebels are
used for carrying on the war, and their
slaves made to ;oil that our government
may be overthrow.
Their lands and slaves are made the in
truments tor carrying on the war. Deprive
lem of these, and the war must come to
q end, and our immense debt be banked of
1crease.
Every dollar of that debt has been con-
seated by their government and repudi-
ed by rebel debtors, whose honor the cor
ltuents of the gentleman trusted.
He repeated that the lands and slaves are |
ing used by the traitors as warlike nstru-
euts. They should be confscated, as the |
'nding bills proposed. These were SIS
UGH enemy's property, as if they owed |
legiance TO a foreign power.
Mr.. Elliott supported his remarks by le-
i arguments.

1t to-day it was too obvious that the mis-

1t is clear that what rebels there are this

WH1TE HOUSE. Va. NAV Is

The army commenced moving at an early
hour this morning, in the direction of Rich
mond, and will encamp some miles in adj
vance of this place. The advance, under
Gen. Stoneman, reached the railroad bridge
over the Chickahominy yesterday. 1t is a
long trestle bridge, two spans only of
which were burned. 1t can be re- built in
a very short time.
The Pickets of the enemy are guarding
the whole line of the river in front of Rich
mond, making it extremely difficult to OBJ
tain any reliable information from that
city.
Gen Mcclellan went on a reconnaissance
to-day 10 the Chickahominy. The pro-
gramme of operations will soon be decided
upon.
