Congressional Proceedings.

WASHINGTON, May 2l.- SENATE. The
Senate, in Difference to the physical ina
bility of Mr.. Fesscnden to enter upon the
reconstruction resolutions to-day as per
agreement, postponed their consideration
till Wednesday. The consideration of the
Colorado bill and veto message was also
postponed. The remainder of the session
was devoted principally to business re-
lating to the District of Columbia
HousE.-The House to-day considered 4
preamble and resolution of Mr.. McClung,
of Missouri, declaring
That the continued contumacy Of the
seeding States renders it necessary to cX-
ercise congressional legislation in order to
give the loyal citizens of those States pro.
lection in their natural and personal rights
enumerated in the Constitution, and, in
addition thereto, makes it necessary to
keep on foot a large standing army to
maintain the authority of the Government
And whereas the country is already
ovcrburdcned by the war debt, incurred tc
defend the nationality against an infamous
rebellion, and it is neither just nor polite
to innct this vast additional expense OF
the peaceful industry of the nation; there
fore
Resolred, That it be referred to the Com
mittcc on Reconstruction to inquire into
the expediency of levying contributions OF
the seeding States to defray the eXtraor
binary expenses that would otherwise be
imposed on the General Government; and
that said committee be instructed to report
by bill or otherwise.
The resolution was adoptcd-yeas, 10
nays, 35.
The House also passed the following re.
solutions, introduced by Mr.. Henderson
of Missouri:
lst. That it is the sense Of this House
that all just and righteous governments
are intended not to confer rights and pri
vileges upon the subjects thereof, but tt
secure to each and every individual The
full, free, and untramclled exercise anc
enjoyment of all those rights which Goo
has bestowed on him.
I'd. That the safety, happiness, and pros
pcrity of the people require that just anc
adequate penalties be annexed to the rio
lation of law, and that these penalties be
inflicted upon tranSgressors, not for the
purpose of retaliation and revenge, but t.
insure subordination and obedience.
Sd. That we will stand by and sustain the
President in executing the laws of the
United States upon sufficient number OF
leading rebels in each of the States lately
in instruction against the National 60.
vcrnment to vindicatc the majesty of the
law, to sustain the confidence of the loya
people, and to warn the refractory for al
time to come.
The Tax bill was further considered.
