men-New Bill TO Secure the Refund
of Cotton Tax.
WASHINGTON, January l9.-Nearly all
the members of Congress present in Wash
ington from the cotton states, at confer
ence last evening, agreed on new bill to
refund the cotton tax, which they will press
in Congress this season, instead of the blu
hitherto introduced by Mckee, of Mssis-
sippi. The provisions of the latter are ma.
terially changed, so as to carefully look after
the interests of the planters and freedmen
in securing to them absolutely the return
of cotton tax that they have paid.
The Daily state journal. [volume] (Alexandria, Va.) 1868-1874, 1873-01-20

Carter strongly urged his motion, warning
the House that riot of serious proper
tons would yet arise out of the infection of
stripes if the law mere not amended so as
to abolish this punishment.
Mr.. Booker, replying, said that the law
was impartial, applying alike to whites and
blacks convicted of petit larceny, and the
Judges enforced it alike on white and color
in the courts in which he practiced that had
been punished by stripes, and two of them
were white men. To merely send these
rogues to Jail, where they were fed and
cared for at public expense, was no more
punishment to them than 10 board a re-
spectacle man gratis at a decent hotel.
The motion to reconsider was warmly
urged by Messrs. j. G. Brown and William
Gillian. On motion of Mr.. Burk-
holder, the pending question had been or
dered, by 50 ayes to 4S noes, when the
morning hour expired.
INTRODUCED AND REFERRED.
By Mr.. Clopton: Memorial of the board
of supervisors of Chesterfield in relation to
the fence law.
By Mr.. Watts: Petition of citizens Of

The oyster bill, the special continuing
order, came up at p, M, Mr.. Douglas
amendment pending to strike out so much
of section four as imposes rental or tax
of fifty cents annually on every one hun
bred bushels planted or scwn. The
amendment was thoroughly and ably advo-
Gated by Messrs. Borand and Bagwell,
and was opposed by Messrs. Daniel and
Anderson. 1t was finally rejected by AZ
ayes to so noes.
Mr.. Bagwell moved to recommit the
bill.
Mr.. Griffith moved to commit it to the
committee on the Chesapeake and its tribu-
taries, and made an eloquent speech in

WASHINGTON, January Is.
SENATE.-There was no session of the

HoUsE.-The testimony in the Credit
Mobilier corrupt cases was ordered to be
printed.
A letter from Mr.. Lamar, of Savannah,
regarding the cotton claims was ordered to
be printed.
Mr.. Blair, of Michigan, reported bill
for the relief of Edwin Jussin, late collec-
tor of internal revenue for the first district
of Illinois, which was passed; also bill
for the relief of sufferers by the destruction
of certain salt works in Kentucky, done by
order of Major General Buel during the
late war. Mr.. Blair explained the circum-
stances of the destruction. 1t was not
done in battle, but as q measure Of
economy to save guarding the works to
prevent their being of use to the confeder-
ates.
Mr.. Dawes. of Massachusetts. thought
this subject should be approached with
much caution. The formula might be given
for bill to pay for all property destroyed
to prevent its falling into the hands of the
enemy. He said the precedent here ought
to be established. 1t would be looked
| upon with great interest by the British and
other foreign nations, who claimed for their
citizens the same rights which we granted
in this respect to our own people.
Mr.. Smith, of New York, commended that
payment for property thus destroyed was
an imperative duty of the government, and
he cited a number of authorities in support
Of his position.

ted the passage Of tho bill, which was
passed-yeas 105, nays 43.
