COLUMBUS, GA., SATURDAY. DECEMBER 13, 1873.
NO. 295.
j| Washington, Dec. 12.—House.—The
$fJpeakor laid before the Honse a commu
nication from the Secretary of War,
charging Gen. O. O. Howard, of tlio late
Froedraeus Bureau, with defalcations
amounting to $278,573, which was re-
ferredjto Committee on Military Affairs.
{fc Senate.—There was no session of the
|. Senate.
The argument before the Committee
f on Privileges and Elections on the Louisi-
j ana case is progressing.
Mr. Marr has arrived.
The Secretary of the Treasury, in his
f annual report while urging economy upon
, Congress, said, should thero not be a re-
1 vival of business at an early day and nu
increase in the receipts over those of the
past two months and a half, additional
means would be required to meet the ex
penses. Should such be the case, he
. would recommend additional taxation,
judiciously laid so as to bo the least bur
densome upon the people and business of
the country, rather than a resort to bor
rowing money and increasing the public
debt. The Secretary said this morn
ing that the public debt this
month would be largely increased, though
it was now too early to approximate the
amount. lie has written a letter to the
Chairman of the Ways and Means Com
mittee recommending, and enclosing a
bill for that purpose, the restoration of
the duty on tea and coffee, which will
yield about twenty millions more per an
num. lie also enclosed a letter to him
from Commissioner Douglass making the
following recommendations : An increas
ed tax of tou cents a gallon on distilled
spirits, which would yield soven millions
annually; four cents additional per pound
on tobacco, which would yield four mil
lions ; on illuminating gas two millions
fivo hundred thousand ; on gross receipts
of railroads from passengers and freights
six millions; on steamboats, gross re
ceipts from passengers and freights,
$000,000; express companies, $500,000;
insurance companies, $1,300,000; tele
graph receipts, $250,000; making in the
aggregate $22,150,000. This, with the
tax on tea and coffee, would mako over
$42,000,000. The Commissioner says if
more revenue is wanted it could bo ob
tained, to the oxtent of $10,000,000, by
restoring taxes as formerly iu schedule 15,
which includes stamps on all legal instru
ments, deeds, mortgages, Ac.; thus mak
ing additional receipts of over $32,000,-
OQO from internal revenue resources.
THE AFTERNOON SESSION.
Washington, December 12.—House.—
A Senate bill relieving Bocock, Harvey
and Trigg, of Virginia, and lleagau, of
Texas, was passed
A resolution directing the Secretary of
War to report which of certain roads, to
which lauds had been granted, had been
paid for the transportation of troops
and supplies since ’GO. Referred to Com
mittee on Military Affairs.
A large number of busiuess men from
all parts of the country have petitioned
for the repeal of tho bankrupt law.
Howard's Cuso.
Wood offered a resolution that the let
ter of tho Secretary of War, with tho ac
oompanyiug reports, relating to the defal
cations, Ac., of Gon. O. O. Howard be
referred to the Committee on Military
Affairs, with instructions to report a reso
lutiou providing for the trial by military
court-martial of any officers of the army
implicated thereby.
Dawes, of Massachusetts, moved to
amend the resolution by striking out the
clause relative to instructions. He wished
to have the subject simply referred to the
Committee on Military Affaire, leaving
that committoo to take such action in the
matter as it should judge best.
Tho Speaker here remarked that he
had been about to refer the
communication to tho Committee on
Military Affairs.
Wood said that he preferred, in view of
the antecedent history of the Erocdmen
Bureau and of Goneral Howards connec
tion with it, that there should bo some in
struotiouR given to tho committee
Hull, of New York, objeoted to debate
The vote was taken on Dawes’ amend
ment, and it was agreed to by yeas 174
nays 88.
Dawes said that he did not desire to
shield General Howard, but be objeoted
to the resolution making statements as
facts before a hearing. It stated as afac
the defalcation of Gen. Howard, lie did
not understand that there was any such
thing iu the paper, aud the Wood resolu
tion states as a fact what has been authen
tioatod in tvro official documents sent here
by the Secretary of War. I think we can
well afford to stand on facts which the
Administration declares to be facts. If
that gentleman dares go back of the Ad
ministration, I will not.
Dawes—No matter how strong tho
proof may appear, it is sufficient for us to
use tho words alleged defalcations.
Wood—The Secretary of War submit
ted these documents to tho Attorney
General, and tho Attorney General gave
as his official opinion that Gen. Howard
was liable to be tried by court martial
and should be so tried, but that there was
some technical difficulty, owing to the
lapse of time.
Dawes—All that may be bo: but the
proper thing is for the Committeo on
Military Affairs to report these facts,
that if that side of tho House takes the
responsibility of shielding this man, it
may do bo.
Duwes—This side of the House will
take the responsibility of shielding no
man.
Woods—It has done so to-day.
Dawes—But it will take the responsi
bility of passing judgment after convic
tion, not before.
The resolution as mended, by inserting
tho word “alleged” and striking out tho
word “instruction,” was adopted.
The salary bill was recommitted.
An appropriation of four millions was
asked by the Secretary of the Navy.
Passed.
Adjourned.
Oilier Resolutions.
The Foreign Committee of tho House
organized and paid a complimentary visit
to Fish,
The Salary bill was recommitted to
special committeo with instructions to
•eport a bill repealing all increase, except
where the constitution forbids a reduc
tion of salary.
The Senate.
Tho Senate continued Scruggs, of Geor
gia, as Minister resident of the United
States at Columbia.
The President replying to the Civil
Rights Convention said: I am very glad
to receive the Convention and listen
your remarks. I have always
believed that enfranchisement and equal
rights should accompauy emancipation.
These rights should have followed with
out legislation. It is unfortunate that
any enactment is necessary to secure such
rights, but existiug prejudice seems to
have rendered it necessary. I hope tho
present Congress will give the relief you
seek.
Enter.
Tho Senate Committeo on Privileges
and Elections met to-day, at 11 o’clock, at
the Capitol. Senator Morton presided,
and all tho members were present except
Sumner. Argument occupied nearly five
hours. Mr. Bollings opened, and was
followed by Messrs. Ogden and Marr. aud
Judge Dibble closed.
The Convention went into secret ses
sion, and thon adjourned until 10 o’clock
Monday.
It is thought that they will then
agree upon a report.
The principal business in the Civil
Rights Convention to-day, was the discus
sion of the report of the Committee on
the Address to Congress and the people
of the United States.
ALABAMA,
THE CHIEF JUSTICE.
OPINION OF THE EIRERAE 11
PI BLU AN COMMITTEE.
Washington, Decembor 12.—The Lib
eral Republican General Committee, after
stating the qualifications necessary for
the Chief Justiceship, resolved, that in
tho judgment of this General Committeo,
the gentleman who has been nominated
by the President and Senate for this high
and important office docs not possess the
requisite qualifications, and the nomina
tion should not bo confirmed.

EATEIt FROM ITT!A—DANGER TO
CONS* FEN.
New York, December 12.—A Key West
dispatch Rays seven war ships aro now
there; sufficient naval stores received
thero to supply ten thousand men for
three months.
Tho officers of the Wyoming report
that tho estale of Brooks, acting British
Consul at Santiago, was burned : probably
by volunteers.
A Swiss jeweller was warned to leave
that city, or decline to trade with Ameri
cau naval officers.

THE EEGINEATFRE—-THE (J. 8.
SENATORS.
Montgomery, December 12.—The jury
in the cose of Lewis E. Parsous vs. Rich
ard Busteed, Judgo of the U. S. District
Court, for false imprisonment, gave the
plaintiff $10,000 damages.
Parsons is Speaker of tho House of
Representatives.
Hunter, of Lowndes, made a motion
at the last session looking to bringing
about a new election of U. 8. Senator iu
place of Sykes aud Spencer.
Parsons ruled Hunter out of order.
Hunter refused to bo silenced and Par
sons had a Sargeant-at-Arms bring hitn
before tho bar of tho House. Hunter
sued out a writ before Busteed on com
plaint that Parsons was conspiring with
certain othor parties to defeat the right of
representatives to elect a United States
Senator. On a honriug of the case Bus-
toed discharged Parsons and co-defend-
fendant, and thereupon Parsons
sued Busteed for false imprison
ment. lluuter is a Republican,
and his idea was that neither Spencer nor
Sikes were legally elocted, because At
torney General Williams had not decided
either tho Court Room or Capitol Legis
lature to bo legal. Hence, as a compro
mise lmd then been effected, he desired
to elect a compromise U. S. Sonator,
Abbott, whose election no doubt could
exist.
1HUBERY.
ATTFKMON’M FAME IN SOUTH
CAROLINA.
Columbia, S. 0., Dec. 12.—Another at
tempt was made before a trial Justice to
investigate a charge of an attempt at
bribery by John J. Patterson, during the
Senatorial election last winter. W. B.
Jones, a member of the House from
Aiken, made tho affidavit, hut it was not
deemed reliable, and ns ho did not ap
pear in the court, it is thought tho whole
thing was an attempt at black-mailing
the Senator. Other witnesses did not
prove anything, aud the case wns dis
missed aud Patterson discharged. It is
understood a warrant has been issued for
the arrest of Jones on the charge of per
jury.
