CONVERSATIONAL,
xxXvIIYth CoNGREss--First Session
Washington /, Feb. l6.


HOUSE.
Mr.. Dawes earnestly urged that the
credentials of Joseph NJ. Johnson, Repre-.
sentative elect from Arkansas, be referred
to the ommittee on Elections.
Col. Johnson said he brought with him
the Constitution of Arkansas as a free
State, the first unwilling fruit wrung
from the rebellion.
Mr.. Dawes regarded it as extraordinary
that Davis, of Maryland, should have
formally moved to lay these credentials
on the table without even giving Arkansas
a fair hearing.
Mr.. Davis, of Maryland, said his OBJ
lection was that these credentials assumed
the pre-existence of State government
in Arkansas, which was not so. They
must first ascertain whether there is a
State there before they entertain the CUES.
tlon Of admitting representative.
Mr.. Boutwell,, Of Massachusetts. con-
Cured in the views expressed by Davis,
of Mary land, saying that we should wait
until Arkansas should re-organize with
out military coercian.
Mn. Boutwell, then offered a series of
resolutions as declaratory of the sense of
the House in regard to the reconstruction
OF the Union, among the requirements of
which are freedom to the black as we'll az
the white man
Mr.. KEENAN,. of New York, appealed to
the House to devote themselves 10 n,act;.
cal questions instead of discussing hum.
bug propositions.
AIR. Dawes argued in favor of the ref.
erence oil the credentials OF Mr.. johnson
to the Committee On Elections, and tina,
they reconsider without reference to the
question OF reconstruction
Dir. Davis, of Maryia nd, replied tha,
IN his apinion the admission Of repre-
sentative from Arkansas would be the re.
| cognition of State government.
They were referred to the Committee
on Elections.

The bill to grant lands to the State Of
Oregon to aid in the construction Of mill
tary roads, was passed.
On motion of Mr.. Harris, the bill re-
pealing the statute IN limitation in GER
tain cases, was called up and passed.
The bin as amended provides that dur
ing the existence of the rebellion, the

Texas for the use of persons of African

Mr.. Lane addressed the Senate at
length on his bill.
After the conclusion of Mr.. Lanes re-
marks, the regular order was taken up.
The question being on Mr. Cowan' s
amendment giving all soldiers similar
pay, DC, Mr.. Wilson proposed an amend
ment giving all soldiers the sa me pay,
rations, clothing. emoluments and bounty
from March LIST, 1864.
Mr. Davis proposed an amendment to
disband and disarm all colored troops,
and that il colored men we're employed
in the army it be as teamsters and labor
ers, and that loyal owners be paid for
slaves taken and receive full value in case
the slave dies in the service Of the United
States. He supported his amendment in
a long speech eondemnasory of slave
troops and the policy of the Administra-
ton, and said even if our armies are sue
eessful in the coming Campaign, the re.
bellion was not subdued, as the rebels
would carry on partisan war.
A message from the House announcing
their adherence to their amendments to
the enrolment bill aud asking for a con
ference committee, was received
The Senate adhered to its amend.
ments, and authorized the chair to APP
