Congress-Pnssage by one House Of the Bill
Making Negroes Voters in the District of
CnIumhin.

1HsAukP Dy Tit kkOubr VI hIt DlI
Making Negroes Voters in the District OF
Columbia.
WAsuISGToY, January lS.-SESATB.- Mr..
Nesmith, OF Oregon, made n speech on Mr..
Howe's Joint resolution to provide provisional
Governors for the Southern States, in which
he endorsed the President and advocated a
generous policy towards the South. He looked
upon negro suffrage, which he termed n radi-
cal remedy for all ills, rs Il remedy worse than
the disease. He said the war was fought to
deny the right of secession, and to hold that
the South was out of the Union was to acknow-
ledge secession rs having been accomplished.
Mr.. Wade gave the President fun credit for
what he had done, and honored him for the
manner of doing it but he had failed to put the
keystone upon the arch he had built, and if
left where it was, ruin would follow. He said
to President Johnson, to the Democratic party,
and the people OF the United States, that he
would never yield the controversy until all
men in America stand upon m equal footing
equal in every respect before the law.
HoUsE.-Mr. Delano, from the Committee on
Claims, made a report asking to be relieved
from the consideration of claims growing out
of the destruction or appropriation OF property
by the army and navy in suppressing the
rebellion, as to pay all these claims would
embarrass the public credit and lead to
increased taxation.
The House was engaged all day in discussing
the bill extending the right of suffrage i'll the
District of Columbia, and passed 1t by.a vote
of one hundred and sixteen votes against fifty
in a form giving, without restrictions, the
freedom of the elective franchise 10 negroes in
the District of Columbia.

Capture of Bagdad by ColOred TroOps-The
Place Plundered and the People Killed.

New ORLEANS, January lS.-A private letter
from GAINESVILLE, Texas, says that the One
Hundred and Eighteenth Colored Infantry
captured Bagdad. They plundered the place
and killed the people. The scene was indie
scribable. The negroes shot men down for
refusing TO give up their money. The Times
has a lester saying that the attacking party
numbered sixty. They captured nearly three
hundred prisoners, half of whom turned
Liberals.
Crawford and Escobedo, on receipt of the
intelligence, started for Bagdad, when the
latter, who was in command, requested twenty
men from General Weitzel to preserve order,
which was granted. A French corvette shelled
the town all day on the 9Th without damage.
