WAsnIN iToN Jan. g.
Petitions were presented as follows
Mr. Ferry of Connecticut, presented a
bill from the New Haven chamber of com
mercc for return to specie payment. Re
fcrred to the finance committee
Mr. Anthony of Rhode Island, presented
a bill against the repeal of the bankrupt
law. Referred to the judiciary commit
tee
Mr. lIamlil of Maine from ship-owners
of that state whose vessels were destroyed
during the rebellion by rebel cruisers other
than those named in the Geneva award,
asking for portion Of that awarl. Re-
lerred To the judiciary committee.
HOUSE.
Mr. Rowen presented resolutions from
the Virginia Legislature protesting against
the passage of the supplementary civil
rights bill. Read and referred.
The house resumed the consideration of
the supplementary civil rights bill.
Mr. Beck gave notice of amendment,
providing that law shall not he so construed
as to require hotel keepers to put whites or
blacks into same rooms and beds. or feed
them at the same table, or require whites
and blacks to be put into the same room,
or classes at school. or in boxes or seats in
theatres, or same berths ON steamboats, or
other vessels. or in the same lots in Gene
teries.
Mr. Durham protested against the bill as
an attack ON state rights and state SOW
rcignty and as calculated to embitter feel
ngs. The Anglo-SaXon rose against the
African race to destroy the whole common
school system of the South, rctarding the
education of blacks, and likely to provoke
war of races that would result in the en-
termination of the black race in America,
Mr. Elliott (cOlOrcd) addressed the house
in advocacy of the BILL reading his speech
from manuscript and with very fine de-
livery referred to the services of the men
of his race on the battle field of the coun-
try,
Mr. Elliotts speech was listened to with
marked interest and attention by members
on both sides of the house and by crowded
galleries, and at its close was very gcner-
ally and loudly applauded. Many members
congratulated tthc colored orator warmly,
and General Sherman, who was present in
the hall, joined in those congratulations.
Mr.. Lawrence of Ohio made "A legal ar
gument to prove that Congress had con-
stitutonal right to pass the bill.
