Is the evening session of the Senate yester
d*ffl7 Morrill, from the Committeeon the Dis
trict of t.olurmia, railed up
r-te the -.Home for Friendless Women ana
Children,' which was amended and passed.
The HonrseIto-k from the Speaker's table the
wnin? re?olu'lon proposing to the several States
amendment to the Constitution of the United
states, wbich. vriun ratified by three-fourths
of said Legislatmes, shall be valid to all in
tents and purples hs a par: of said Constitu
tion, nsmHy : " Neither slavery nor involun
tary tervitude, except lu the punishment of
<nme, of which the party shall be duly con
victed, than exist within the United States, or
id aDy place within their jurisdiction. And
Congress sb-.iil have powwr, by appropriate
legislation, to carey the foregoing article into
? Sftct.
Mr Hclroan, of Indiana, objected to the
second reading cf the bill, and so, under the
rules, the question occurred: Shall it fce re
acted ? .
Tht question was taken and decided in toe
negative?yeas 55, nays 7??.
In the evening session^
Mr. Herrkk opposed the Senate resolution
lroking to the abolition of slavery ?'broughout
the couniry. Its adoption could have no other
tnan an embarrassing efl'ect ou negotiations
which mnst inevitably precede a restoration
cf amicable relations between all parts of the
country _
Mr. Kellopg maintained that when the re
bellion is crushed, reconstruction follows as a
consequence. It then becomes Congress to do
its duty. Slavery being dead, presupposes that
fteedom Triumphs. Slavery, the cause of the
rebellion, ihould be buried b?yond ressurrec
tion. *
