XLVth COngress-Regular Session.
HOUSE..

WASHINGTON. April IL.
The bill from the military committee restoring
Geo. A.Armes to rank in the army was taken up and
Bragg argued against the bill. In the course of his
remarks he said it was not proper tor committee of
and summary restore to the army man who had
been mustered out nine years ago. particularly when
there was bill before the House providing for the
reduction of officers of the army.
Haskell supported the bill and said Captain Armes
had been dismissed on set of charges containing not
a single particle of truth.
Crittenden eulogized the gallantry of Armes who
having fallen under the ban Of the Secretary OF War
had been victim of intense persecution.
FRYE hoped the House would pass the bill with
unanity and grant some little need of justice to
man who according to the report of the committee
had been uDjustly treated.
Bill authorizing the Secretary of War to reinquish
certain portions of the Fort Hartsuff military
walton in Nebraska to homestead and presumption
passed.
House then went into the committee of the whole
on the private calendar.
The first bill the calendar was the bill to reim
burse the college of William and Mary in virginia,
for property destroyed during the late war.
MIR: Goode advocated its passage. In his remarks
ne said he spt Ike for the college and the people of
virginia when he affirmed that they would toreve.
remember with emotions of gratitude the friendly
aid and words of sympathy and cheer which they
mad received from the state of Massachusetts,.
An exceedingly long debate followed Mr.. Lorng
81 Massachusetts spoke in advocacy OF the bill, and
MT. Reed OF Maine opposed it in strong terms. Other
members also participated in the debate.
On motion OF Mr.. Foster the Senate amendments
to the general deficiency appropriation bill were non
concurred in.
ON motion of Mr.. Singleton the Senate amend
ments to the diplomatic appropriation bill were nom
concurred in, and the Speaker appointed Singleton
Sparks and Hale conferees On the part of the House
on said bill.
Mr. LuttrelI asked leave to offer resolution pro-
viding that inasmuch as tomorrow would be the an
niversary of Thomas Jeersons birth, the House set
aside that day for the consideration of bill for the
erection of monu nent over his grave.
EIr. Dunnell objected.
MIR. O'Neill presented petition of the President
of the Philadelphia cotton exchange and ether citi-
zens, asking compensation for mail service in
titl0n for ocean mail service. Referred.
The House at s.45 adjourned until tomorrow.
