WASHINGTON, Jan. 2

SENATE On motion of Mr. Fessenden
the House Bill making appropriation fol
invalid and other pensions for the ycal
ending June 1867, was taken up.
Mr.. Stewart asked leave to call uI
the bill for the admission of Colorado
Mr. Sumner hoped that this would lot
be done. az he had an amendment tc
offer
Mr.. Stewart gave notice thai he would
call up the bill on wednesday next,
Mr.. Trumbun called up the bill to Ell
large the powers of the Freedmeu's Eu
reau
Mr.. CoWan moved to amend by restrict
ing the operations Of the Bureau to the
States lately in rebellion
Mr. Trumbull said that this would have
the effect of excluding Kentucky, Mis-
souri,, Delaware and Maryland, where
there we're many emancipatrd slaves
who needed the protection ofthe Bureau.
Mr. Guthrie said that was no reason
why Kentucky should be included in the
| bill. Kentucky did not want the relief
proposed, The freedmen were part of
her population aud would be cared for as
such l believe the States themselves
| could take care Of the freedmen much
better than the Freedmen's Bureau, The
bill before the Senate could not be i'll
| tended as an act Of economy, IT econo-
my was the object, it could better have
been accomplished by the immediate
admission of the Southern States. He
did not know what gentlemen meant
when they said the wal was not over
there had been no hostile forces in the
field for nine months. In May last the
President issued an Amnesty Proclama-
ton, looking to peace and union. This
had been looked upon as too lenient to
the South, but he was sorry that the
President had not gone farther, AS it
was there were $4,000 exceptions to the
proclamation. and among them all the
misfortunes of the war would be dlstri.
buted The South lost $4,000 900 900
worth OF property in the war, but was
not this enoughl Guthrie in conclusion
said there was no reason in the world
why Congress should send officers of the
Freedmens Bureau to regulate the rela-
tions between the citizens and freedmen
of Kentucky, He was sorry to see the
spirit that was manifested in Congress
toward the southern people, for he be
lieved the people were honest and sin
cere in their professions of willingness
and anxiety to return to the union.
Pomeroy was glad to hear from Guth-
rie an admission that the Constitutional
amendment rendered null and void all
slave Codes and Laws relating to sla-
very.
Guthrie said that that was his
opinion and that of every able lawyer OF
Lexington from whom he had received a
letter on the subject
Pomeroy continued his remarks, stat
ing that he would do nothing to the
Southern States for revenge, but only
for security in future
Pending the discussion the Senate ad,
