A resolution was adopted asking III
formation of the departments as to how
many buildings in Washington are rent

Kelsey offered q resolution calling on
the Secretary Of State for information as
to the property of VIM. I. Harris, an
American citizen who died in Batai, Bra

The Senate amendment to the resolu-
ton to provide for the disposition Of Ger
tain papers relating to military claims ac-
cruing in the Department Of the West,
were taken from the speakers table and
non concurred in.
In the House to-day, the proposed
Constitutional Amendment, and bill in re
gard to suffrage, was taken up and Bout
well delivered speech thereon.
Boutwell, called up the constitutional
amendment and bill in regard to the snf-
tragc which was secured to all citizens
of the United States, without respect to
race or colors, that the Republic would
be established on a sure basis. 1t was
impossible for this Congress or the re-
publican party to escape that issue. He
knew it was unusual TO present measures
from mere party point of view, but the
situation was peculiar to the democratic
party from the opening of the war until
they had been identified with measures
calculated to prevent the restoration of
the Union, by and through the influence
of war. To the republican party, the ma
ton was indebted for it's existence, and
therefore it was responsible for the per-
petuity and peace of the nation which it
had saved
Brooks said in order to carry out the
principles advocated by the gentleman
from Massachusetts,, he proposed to offer
an amendment to the bill by striking out
the word "citizen" wherever it occurs,
by substituting the word "person," and
otherwise altering it so as it will read :
No State will abridge or deny the right
of any person in the United States to vote
by reason of his or her race, color, sex,
nativity or age, when over twenty one
years" The amendment was ordered
printed
Robinson gave notice ofan amendment
by substituting for word citizen" the
word inhabitants having no other resi-
dence elsewhere than in the United States
The amendment was ordered printed.
Knott addressed the House in opposi-
ton to the bill, and proposed an amend
ment The point Of his argument was
that the fourteenth amendment could not
be made retroactive, etc.
