This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on library shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project 
to make the world's books discoverable online. 

It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject 
to copyright or whose legal copyright term has expired. Whether a book is in the public domain may vary country to country. Public domain books 
are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that's often difficult to discover. 

Marks, notations and other marginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book's long journey from the 
publisher to a library and finally to you. 

Usage guidelines 

Google is proud to partner with libraries to digitize public domain materials and make them widely accessible. Public domain books belong to the 
public and we are merely their custodians. Nevertheless, this work is expensive, so in order to keep providing this resource, we have taken steps to 
prevent abuse by commercial parties, including placing technical restrictions on automated querying. 

We also ask that you: 

+ Make non-commercial use of the files We designed Google Book Search for use by individuals, and we request that you use these files for 
personal, non-commercial purposes. 

+ Refrain from automated querying Do not send automated queries of any sort to Google's system: If you are conducting research on machine 
translation, optical character recognition or other areas where access to a large amount of text is helpful, please contact us. We encourage the 
use of public domain materials for these purposes and may be able to help. 

+ Maintain attribution The Google "watermark" you see on each file is essential for informing people about this project and helping them find 
additional materials through Google Book Search. Please do not remove it. 

+ Keep it legal Whatever your use, remember that you are responsible for ensuring that what you are doing is legal. Do not assume that just 
because we believe a book is in the public domain for users in the United States, that the work is also in the public domain for users in other 
countries. Whether a book is still in copyright varies from country to country, and we can't offer guidance on whether any specific use of 
any specific book is allowed. Please do not assume that a book's appearance in Google Book Search means it can be used in any manner 
anywhere in the world. Copyright infringement liability can be quite severe. 

About Google Book Search 

Google's mission is to organize the world's information and to make it universally accessible and useful. Google Book Search helps readers

EXTRA COMPENSATION. 

LETTER 

FROM THX 

CLERK OF THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES 

IN RELATION TO 

Extra compensation to clerks and others in his department. 



December 13, 1864.— Referred to the Committee of Ways and Means and ordered to be 

printed. 



Office House of Representatives, 

December 12, 1864. 

Sir : Upon the 4th day of Julj, A. D. 1864, the following joint resolution 
passed the House of Representatives : 

•JOINT RESOLUTION granting additional compensation to the employds of the two houses 

of Congress. 

Whereas the cost of living in this city has increased at least one hundred per 
cent: therefore, 

" Resolved by the Seriate and House of Representatives of the United States 
^America in Congress assembled. That there be paid at the close of the present 
Session of Congress to the officers, clerks, and other employes of the two houses 
of Congress, and such others in and about the Capitol as have usually been 
Embraced in extra compensation resolutions, a sum equal to twenty per centum 
^pon the amount of their annual compensation respectively, and in the case of 
^iich as do not receive an annual compensation, a like per centum upon the 
Amount of compensation received by them respectively during the present ses- 
sion; and a sum sufficient to pay the same is hereby appropriated out of any 
^oney in the treasury not otherwise appropriated." 
Upon this resolution the Senate did not take action. 

Upon the same day the House of Representatives passed a resolution as 
follows : 

On motion of Mr. Pendleton, 

" Unanimousli/ resolved. That the clerk pay at the close of this session out 
tDf the contingent fund of the House, to the officers, clerks, and other employes 
of the House, a sum equal to twenty per cent, on their annual compensation 
respectively, or where not receiving an annual compensation, on the amount 
received by them during this session." 

While preparations were in progress to execute the order of the House, it 
was understood that the Comptroller of the Treasury had doubts as to his legal 
power to allow vouchers for payments under said resolution ; and as the dis- 
allowance of such vouchers would involve the Clerk's office in the difficulty of 
having no basis upon which to make requisitions upon the treasury for ordi- 



2 EXTRA COMPENSATION. 

nary purposes, it was deemed advisable to take the opinion of the Comptroller 
upon the question in advance. In response to an inquiry upon the subject the 
following reply was received : 

"Treasury Departmbmt, 

" Comptroller's Office, July 8, 1864. 

" Sir : I have received your letter of yesterday, quoting the resolution of the 
House of the 4th instant, directing that the Clerk pay at the close of this session, 
out of the contingent fund of the House, to officers, clerks, and other employes 
of the House, a sum equal to twenty per cent, on their annual compensation 
respectively ; or where not receiving an annual compensation, on the amount 
received by them during the session; and asking if there is, in my opinion, any 
difficulty in the way of the allowance of the accounts or vouchers by the Trea- 
sury Department, if the Clerk shall pay the amount directed by said resolution. 

"The 5th section of the act of June 12, 1858, (Statutes at Large, volume 11, 
page 326,) provides, 'that no part of the appropriations which may be at any 
time made for the contingent expenses of either house of Congress shall be 
applied to any other than the ordinary expenditures of the Senate and House 
of Representatives, nor as extra allowance to any clerk, messenger, or 
attendant of the said two houses, or either of them, nor as payment or com- 
pensation to any clerk, messenger, or other attendant of the said two houses, 
or either of them, unless such clerk, messenger, or other attendant, be so em- 
ployed by a resolution of one of said houses.* 

** In my opinion this section meant to provide for and secure three things, 
namely : 1st. That the contingent fund of either house should be used solely 
for the ordinary expenditures of such house. 2d. That it should not be ap- 
plied as extra allowance to any clerk, messenger, or attendant of the said two 
houses, or either of them. 3d. That it should not be applied as payment or 
compensation to any clerk, messenger, or other attendant of the said two 
houses, or either of them, unless such clerk, messenger, or other attendant, be 
so employed by a resolution of one of said houses. 

" The act of June 12, 1858, passed both houses, and was approved by the Pres- 
ident, thereby becoming the law of the land, and, so far as it went, limiting 
the powers'of the House. The resolution which you quote is, in my judgment, 
in conflict with the law, and does not authorize the proposed payment of 20 
per cent, extra allowance. The qualification or condition in the latter part of 
the section does not apply to the first enumeration of clerks, &c., but to the 
last, and was intended to meet the cases of persons employed without the 
authority of the House, and to that alone. 
** I am, very respectfully, 

" R. W. TAYLOR, Comptroller. 

"Clinton Lloyd, Esq., 

" Chief Clerk House of Representatives,** 

It has therefore been impossible for the Clerk of the House to comply with 
the directions of said resolution. 

The other resolution of the House of like terms, referring to the reporters of 
the Congressional Globe, being held open to the same difficulty, has not been 
executed for the same reason. 

I have the honor to be, very respectfully, your obedient servant,

LOUISIANA ELECTION. 

MEMORIAL 

OF 

CITIZENS OF THE UNITED STATES AND OF LOUISIANA 

AGAINST 

The admission of senators and members of Congress to either body. 



December 5, 1864. — Refened to the Committee of Elections. 
December 13, 1864.— Ordered to be printed. 



To the honorable the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States 
of America in Congress assembled: 
The memorial of the undersigned citizens of the United States and of 
Louisiana respectfully represents, that in their opinion no senators and repre- 
sentatives ought to be admitted into your honorable body from this State; and 
. ^0 electoral vote that may bo cast for president and vice-president here ought 
^ be counted in the presidential election, for the following reasons : 

Your memorialists respectfully represent that, acting under the powers con- 
''^'Ted by article 51 of the constitution of Louisiana, upon the chief executive 
officer of the State, to convene the general assembly at the seat of government 
?^ extraordinary occasions, Thomas O. Moore, then governor of this State, 
'^siied his proclamation on the nineteenth day of November, 1860, in which he 
"^clared the election of the present chief magistrate of the United States " an 
*^8ault and outrage perpetrated at and through the ballot box," and "fur- 
bishing, in his opinion, as well as in that of a large number of citizens of all 
P^i'ties and pursuits,*' an occasion such as was contemplated, stating that, inas- 
much "as some of our sister States, aggrieved like ourselves, were preparing 
'Measures for their future security, and for the safety of their institutions and 
^Qeir people, that the necessity of self-preservation required us to deliberate 
J*pon our own coarse of action : " whereupon Governor Moore convened the 
'^g^islature of the State in extra session, and appointed Monday, December 12, 
^^60, as the time of meeting at Baton Rouge. 

The general assembly having met in pursuance of this order of convocation, 

their very first act, passed through both houses and approved by the governor, 

^^ the first day of the session, was " an act to promote the formation of military 

^^'^panies, and to provide for arming and organizing the same," by which it 

^^^ designed to put the State on a war footing. That on the same twelfth 

^y of December an act was passed and approved by the governor, entitled " An 

^^^ providing for a State convention," declaring that, in the opinion of the 

^en^fjjl assembly, the condition of public affairs demanded that a convention of 



2 LOUISIAI^A ELECTION. 

the people should be called to take such action as the interest and welfare of 
the State might require, and directing the governor to order an election of dele- 
gates to be held on Monday, the seventh day of January, 1S61, to a convention 
to consist of the same number of members as that of which the general assembly 
was composed, designating Wednesday, the twenty-third day of January, 1861, 
as the time for the meeting of the convention, in the hall of the house of repre- 
sentatives at Baton Rouge. 

Your memorialists further represent, that the election of delegates having been 
ordered in pursuance of said law, and held on the appointed day, the delegates 
were duly chosen, but before the day assigned for the meeting of the conven- 
tion, and on the twelfth and thirteenth days of January, 1861, Governor Moore, 
with a sufficient military force of State troops, took possession of the United 
States barracks and arsenal at Baton Rouge, with all the federal property 
therein, and about the same time also occupied, in the same way, Fort Pike on 
the Rigolets, forts Jackson and St. Philip on the Mississippi river, and made 
many other military dispositions hostile to the government of the United States. 

An account of these acts of insurrectionary violence was communicated by 
Governor Moore to the convention on the second day of its session, the twenty- 
fourth of January, 1861, and a resolution approving his conduct was at once adopted 
by a vote of one hundred and nineteen in the affirmative to five in the negative, 
thus placing the State of Louisiana in an attitude of flagrant insurrection and 
rebellion against the authority and government of the United States. 

Only two days after this vote, the convention passed an ordinance of seces- 
sion and separation from the Union, by a vote of one hundred and twelve yeas 
to seventeen nays, in the aggregate less, by one only, than the whole number of 
members in the convention, thus consummating in a formal manner, and by the 
authority of the people of the State, the declaration of war already, in effect, 
made by the government of Louisiana against the United States. 

On the twenty-ninth of January, by their ordinance number seven, the con- 
vention changed the form of oath prescribed by the ninetieth article of the con- 
stitution of Louisiana, which required all State-officers to swear to support the 
Constitution of the United States. This change called upon them to swear 
*'to be faithful and true allegiance bear to the State of Louisiana,'' then already 
declared separated from and at war with the United States. 

On the twenty -first day of March following, the convention assented to and 
ratified the constitution of the so-called Confederate l^'tates, by an ordinance 
which declared it to be binding on the people of Louisiana; and by another 
ordinance, adopted on the twenty-sixth day of the same month, the convention 
required all office-holders in the State to swear to support the "confederate" 
constitution. 

These ordinances received prompt obedience from every office-holder, in every 
department of the State government. They renounced, voluntarily, their alle- 
giance to the United States, transferring it, by their oaths, to a hostile and insur- 
rectionary government. Thus the supreme law of the land was overthrown in 
Louisiana, both by military and moral force. Secession became a fact. The govern- 
ment of the United States ceased, in fact, to have any control, power, or effect in 
the State. Louisiana ceased, in fact, to have any constitutional civil relations 
with the United States. Louisiana was then, politically and morally, in fact 
though not in law, out of the Union. There was no officer under the »'- tate govern- 
ment of Louisiana, whether in the executive, legislative, or judiciary departments, 
who could be recognized by the government of the United States, or by the 
government of any loyal State. The government of Louisiana was an usurping 
power, established de factor acquiesced in by all its office-holders, and by all its 
people. This condition of affairs precluded all remedy of a civil nature, and 
brought the nation to the alternative of war for the suppression of the rebellion. 

On the thirteenth day of July, 1861, the Congress of the United States 



LOUISIANA ELECTION. 3 

passed an act which declared that if, "on the proclamation of the President of 
the United States, the insurgents shall have failed to disperse, by the time 
directed by the President ; and when said insurgents claim to act under the 
authority of any State, or States, and such claim is not disclaimed or repudiated 
by the persons exercising the functions of government in such State, or States," 
** nor Buch insurrection suppressed by said State, or States ; then, and in such 
case, it may and shall be lawful for the President, by proclamation, to declare ' 
that the innabitants of such State, where such i^isurrection exists, are in a state 
of insurrection against the United States." 

Yoar memorialii^ts further show that Louisiana was situated precisely as the 
expressions of the act of Congress declare. The insurgents in Louisiaua acted 
under the express command of the governor. The convention approved their 
acts; and the whole military force of the State, with the approval of all the 
State officers, was placed in hostile array against the authority of the United 
States. Accordingly the President of the United States issued his proclama- 
tion on the sixteenth day of August, 1861, declaring ** the inhabitants of Louis- 
iana to be in insurrection against the United States," and repeated the declara- 
tion in his proclamation of the first day of July, 1862; since which no civil 
relations have existed between the government of the United States and the 
inhabitants of Louisiana considered as a State, which has remained in insurrec- 
tion, except certain portions subdued and held by the national arms ; and the 
rules and laws of war have since governed all relations between them. 

On the first day of May, 1862, New Orleans and a portion of adjoining ter- 
ritory was occupied by the forces of the United States ; martial law was pro- 
claimed by the major general commanding in the department of the Gulf, and 
has continued to be in force until the present day. 

Thus all the inhabitants of the State of Louisiana are, by law, declared to be 
in insurrection, and that portion of them living within the Union lines are put 
onder martial law. 

On the eleventh day of January, 1864, the major general commanding the 
department of the Gulf issued a proclamation to the inhabitants of Louisiana, 
<^Iiing on the people to assemble at the usual places of voting and chose a governor, 
* lieutenant governor, and five other executive officers, but no legislature or 
J'ldiciary, who he declared should be the civil government of the State of Louis- 
iana under the constitution and laws of the State, except such as related to 
*Wery. This election was held in a portion of the parishes and by a fraction 
®^ the population, and the officers elected were installed ; but martial law was 
5^*^tinuea in force. Mr. Uahn. returned as if elected governor, received an 
^'^ftirmal appointment from the President as military governor of Louisiana. 

On the eleventh March, 1864, the major general commanding the department 
^^ the Gulf ordered an election of delegates to a convention to revise and amend 
^*^^ constitution of Louisiana, as if the whole State were cleared of enemies, 
*^d elections could be peacefully held in all parts of it. This election was 
"^Id in less than one-half of the parishes and by less than one-half of the 
population. The delegates assembled in New Orleans on the sixth April, 1864, 
^^d framed a constitution, which was submitted to a popular vote on the fifth 
^^y of September, 1864, and proclaimed as adopted. 

AH these orders and proclamations were of a military character, and were 
^^ithout any legal force and effect, and were mere usurptions of power on the 
P^rt of the military authorities, as the readmission of States and the reorganiza- 
tion of civil government, when overthrown by rebellion, belongs exclusively to 
^ongre^s, and cannot lawfully be set on foot by the executive. 

And your memorialists further show that the said convention did, on the twenty- 
second day of June, 1864, adopt an ordinance ** to provide for an election to fill va- 
^ncies in the representation of the State of Louisiana in the thirty-eighth Con- 
^8s ;" by which an election was ordered to take place on the first Monday of Sep- 



4 LOUISIANA ELECTION. 

tember, 1864, for said representatives, and by which the " State " — while less than 
one-half of it was under the control of the military forces of the United States— 
was divided into five congressional districts, embracing the whole area both 
within the Union and the rebel lines. This convention was not a State legisla* 
ture, and had no right, under paragraph 1, of section IV, of article I of the 
Constitution of the United States, to divide the State into congressional 
districts. ' 

On the same fifth day of September, 1864, a pretended election was held for 
members of a simulated legislature created by said constitution, which pretended 
legislature commenced its session in New Orleans on the third day of October, 
1864 ; and on the tenth of the same month assembled in joint session and 
elected two members of the convention as senators in the Congress of the 
United States. That on the thirty-first day of October, the said pretended 
legislature passed an act conferring on themselves power to choose seven 
presidential electors, giving out that the said pretended electors would have 
the right to cast that number of votes for president and vice-president of the 
United States ; and that on the eighth day of November the said legislature 
again met in joint session, and chose seven persons as electors. 

Now, your memorialists respectfully protest against all the elections, procla- 
mations, orders, conventions, and legislatures, and all the acts and doings thereof, 
so far as it may be pretended that they have any civil force or legal effect what- 
ever. 

That the said elections were ordered by the military authorities, and were 
commenced, carried on, and consummated without regard to the provisions of 
the laws of Louisiana, or of any other law ; but were regulated by the will of 
the military conuuander only. 

That there was no proper enrolment of voters, or test of the loyalty and 
qualifications of the voters 

That not one-half of the territory or population of the State participated in 
said elections. 

Wherefore your memorialists pray, the premises being considered, that no 
senators or representatives be admitted into your houomble bodies from the pre- 
tended State of Louisiana, and that no electoral vote may be counted which may 
be cast by the pretended presidential electors. 

They further pray that the act which passed the last session of Congress to 
guarantee republican government in the insurrectionary States may become a 
law, and your memorialists, &;c., &c.

RAILROADS CONSTRUCTED BY DONATIONS OF LAND. 



Jauuaet 11, 1865 ~0d motion of Mr. E. B. WAtHiiURKB, ordered to be printed. 



Mr. A. G. Porter, from the Committee on the Judiciary, made the following 

REPORT. 

■^e Committee an the Jtidiciary having been instructed by resolutions of this 
House to inquire: "1. Whether any of the railroad companies whose rail- 
roads have been constructed in whole or in part by donations of land from the 
United States, accepted such donations on the condition that the troops and 
munitions of war if the United States should be transported over such roads 
^fte of charge; and if so, 2. What railroad companies have received dona- 
tions of land on the considerations aforesaid; and 3. Whether such accept- 
ance of lands so donated conferred upon the United States the unqualified right 
to the free transportation of troops and munitions of war over such roads by 
the companies owning the same ; and, if not, the character of the limitations 
on such right;** report as follows : 

Congress, by an act approved September 20, 1850, granted to the State of 
Ulinoie, for the purpose of aiding in making a railroad from the southern ter- 
^^[^inas of the Illinois and Michigan canal to a point at or near the junction of the 
Ohio and Mississippi rivers, with a branch of the same to Chicago, and another 
^^a the town of Galena, every alternate section of land, designated by even 
^^bers, for six sections in width on each side of said road and branches ; pro- 
dding, however, that in case it should appear that the United States had, when 
^he line or route of said road and branches should have been definitely fixed, 
®^ld any part of any section thereby granted, or the right of pre-emption had 
^^tached to the same, it should be lawful for any agent or agents to be appointed 
^y the governor of said State to select, from the lands of the United States most 
^^outiguous to the tier of sections above specified, so much land in alternate -sec- 
5^^ixs, or parts of sections, as should be equal to such lands as the United States 
T^^d sold, or to which the right of pre-emption had attached ; but the lands so 
*^ be located were in no case to be further than fifteen miles from the line of the 

The act further provided that the sections and parts of sections which, by 
^^ grants, should remain to the United States, within six miles on each side 
^^ oaid road and branches, should not be sold for less than double the minimum 
l^^'ice of the public lands when sold. 

^nd it was further enacted that the said railroad and branches should ** be 
^*^d remain a public highway for the use of the government of the United 
States, free from toll or other charge upon the transportation of any property 
^^ troops of the United States;" and that the *' United States mail" should 
* ^t all times be transported on the said railroad, under the direction of the 
^^st Office Department, at such price as Ojngrcss " might " by law direct." 



2 RAILROADS CONSTRUCTED BY DONATIONS OF LAND. 

Subsequently to the passage of the act of Congress, the legislature of Illinois 
incorporated the " Illinois Central Railroad Company," for the purpose of 
constructing the railroads and branches mentioned in the act of Congress, and 
granted said lands to that corporation to promote the enterprise. It wps pro- 
vided that a deed should be executed by the governor, and should ** recite at 
full length the act of Congress." No allusion further than this is made in the 
act of incorporation to the conditions in the law of Congress relating to the 
transportation of the property and troops of the government and the United 
States mail. 

The Illinois Central Railroad Company has fully completed its road and 
branches, and the lands granted by the government have contributed most 
materially to the success of the enterprise. The road, including the branches, 
is about seven hundred miles in length, and is one of the greatest public works 
in the world. -« 

By the same act of Congress public lands, to the same extent in proportion 
to the length of the road, and on the same terms, limitations, and restrictions in 
every respect, were granted to the States of Alabama and Mississippi respect- 
ively, to aid in the construction of said Central railroad, from the mouth of 
the Ohio river to the city of Mobile. These lands were afterwards granted by 
the legislatures of Alabama and Mississippi, respectively, to the Mobile and Ohio 
Railroad Company, which has completed its line from Mobile to a point several 
miles beyond Corinth, on the Memphis and Charleston railroad. 

By an act approved June 10, 1852, Congress made a grant, similar to those 
above mentioned, to the State of Missouri, to aid in the construction of rail- 
roads from the town of Hannibal to the town of St. Joseph, in said State, and 
from the city of St.. Louis to such point on the western boundary of giaid State 
as might be designated by the authority of said State. The legislature of Mis- 
souri afterwards passed acts granting these lands on the contemplated railroad 
from Hannibal to St. Joseph to the Hannibal and St. Joseph Railroad Com- 
pany, and those on the contemplated railroad from St. Louis to the we^em 
y boundary of said State to the Pacific Railroad Company. The lands granted 
^ to these companies were, by these acts, ** vested in them in full and complete 
title, for the uses and nurpolses, and subject to the conditions, reversion, and 
provisions set forth and contained in said act of Congress." 

The Hannibal and St. Joseph railroad extends from east to west, entirely 
across the State of Missouri, a distance of about two hundred and seven miles, 
and has been completed several years. About two hundred and sixty miles of 
the Pacific railroad have been completed. 

Congress, by an act approved May 15, 1856, made a similar grant of lands 
to the State of Iowa to aid in the construction of railroads from Burlington, on 
the Mississippi river, to a point on the Missouri river near the mouth of Platte 
river ; from the city of Davenport, via Iowa City and Fort Des Moines, to Coun- 
cil Bluffs; from Lyons City northwesterly to a point of intersection with the' 
main line of the Iowa Central Air- Line railroad, near Maquoketo; thence on said 
main line, running as near as practicable to the forty-second parallel across said 
State to the Missouri river; from the city of Dubuque to a point on the Mis- 
tiouil river near Sioux City, with a branch from the mouth of the T6te Des 
Morts to the nearest point on said road. 

The legislature of the State of Iowa afterwards granted the lands given to 
aid in the constmction of the railroad from Burlington to the Missouri river 
to the Burlington and Missouri Railroad Company, which has completed 
the road from Burlington to Ottumwa, a distance of about seventy-five miles, 
and is running cars thereon. The legislature also granted the lands given to aid 
in making the railroad from Davenport to Council Bluffs to the Mississippi and 
Missouri Railroad Company, which has completed the road from Davenport to 
a vjlhge in Poweshiek county, a distance of about one hundred miles. 



RAILROADS CONSTRUCTED BY DONATIONS OF LAND. 3 

No part of the railroad from Lyons city, it is believed, has been built. 
By an act of Congress approved February 9, 1853, a grant similar to those 
above mentioned was made to the States of Arkansas and Missouri to aid in 
constructing a railroad from a point on the Mississippi river opposite the mouth 
of the Ohio, in the State of Missouri, via Little Rock, in Arkansas, to the 
Mississippi river, and to Fort Smith in said State. It is believed that this road 
has ouly been completed a distance of about twenty -five miles, from a point 
opposite to Cairo. 

Similar grants of land to those above mentioned have also been made by 
Congress, for the purpose of aiding in the construction of railroads, to Min- 
nesotn, (10 United States Statutes at Large, 302;) Wisconsin, {Hid. 20;) 
Michigan, {id. 21;) Florida, {id. 15;) Alabama, (9 id. 466; 11 id. 15, 17, 195;) 
Mississippi, (9 id. 466; 11 ?^. 30.) As the railroads for which these grants 
have been made have either not been commenced or are not likely soon to be 
available for the transportation of government property and troops, it is believed 
that a particular mention of their routes, or statement of the companies which 
haye them in charge, though perhaps within the letter, is hardly within the . 
spirit of the inquiry submitted to the committee. 

The several acts granting lands to the States of Missouri, Arkansas, Iowa, 
Wisconsin, Michigan, Florida, Alabama, and Mississippi, were formed upon the 
model of the act granting lands to Illinois, and contain precisely the same 
provisions as that act touching the price of the lands reserved by the govern- 
ment, and the transportation of the property and troops of the government and 
the United States mail. 

The committee have no doubt that these several acts render it incumbent 
upon the companies, respectively, which accepted the grants of public lands, 
themselves to transport over their roads, to the full extent of their ability and 
means of carriage, the property and troops of the government free of toll or 
other charge whatsoever. The same ingenious refinement which could limit the 
right of the government to the transportation of its property and troops to a 
mere free right of passage over the road, with means of transportation to be fur- 
nished by itself, could restrict the right of the government to have the United 
States mail transported on these roads at such price as Congress might direct, 
to cases where the government itself furnished all the means of transportation. 
In neither instance is it in mere words expressed by whom such means shall 
be provided. 

The act of September 20, 1850, granting lands to Illinois, is understood to 
have been framed by Mr. Douglas, who introduced the measure into Congress. 
On the 29th of April, 1850, when the bill was under consideration in the Sen- 
ate, Mr. Bradbury moved an amendment, to limit the grants of lands to the al- 
ternate sections within six miles of the road not already sold. Mr. Douglas, 
after remarking that if the amendments should pass, he did not know whether 
he should vote for the bill, and that he should hardly regard it as worth con- 
tending for, said : '*It(the land) is granted on condition that we make and 
complete a railroad the whole length of the route, and put it in operation within 
a period of ten years ; and on the further condition that we transport over it 
the government troops and government property of every kind free ; and fur- 
ther, that the mails shall be carried at such price as Congress shall prescribe." 
Mr. Dayton, of New Jersey, who opposed the bill, did not venture to question 
this interpretation, but replied : " But what is this thing ? The compulsory con- 
veyance of troops and munitions of war. What will that amount to ? Com- 
pulsory to carry the United States mail for a sum which the government of the 
United States shall prescribe ! The United States will pay a fair price for it. 
Every man knows that the government will not act meanly and niggardly, and 
the only good contained in the provision is to prevent any act of extortion from 
the government." 



4 RAILROADS CONSTRUCTED BY DONATIONS OP LAND. 

Mr. Moore, of Louisiana, who himself had introduced a hill to grant lands to 
that State to construct a railroad, in the dehnte on the Missouri hill, said : 
** Here we say to the State of Missouri, make this road through your country, 
transport our troops and supplies, and we will give you every alternate section 
of land," &c. 

Mr. Jones, of Tennessee, who opposed all the railroad grants, referring, in the 
course of debate on the Wisconsin bill, to the clause requiring the transporta- 
tion of the United States mail at such prices as Congress might by law direct, 
said : ** I desire to see* this section stricken out, and a provision inserted in the 
third section providing for the transportation of the mails free of cost, as the 
troops and other property of the United States are transported." 

Mr. Cutting, of New York, in the debate on the Wisconsin bill, said : ** As I 
understand the theory of this and analogous bills, it is that in order to open up 
the country in the first place, and next in order to obtain facilities for carrying 
the mails and munitions of war, the general government undertakes to give by 
a patent to the States a bounty of land upon a contract on the part of the States 
that they will apply it to a particular purpose, and that for all future tim^ the 
mails and munitions of war shall be carried for the use of the government upon 
such terms as the bill prescribes." 

No one will be so bold as to argue that it was contemplated, at the passage of 
these acts, that the government, in order to have the mails transported over these 
roads at such price as Congress might by law direct, should itself provide the 
cars, and other necessary means of transportation. 

In the numerous debates upon the railroad grants it was never once questioned, 
but, on the contrary, it was constantly assumed, that, under the clause before 
quoted, it was incumbent upon " the railroad companies which received grants 
of public lands themselves, to carry in their own cars, and at their own expense, 
the property and troops of the United States, free of any charge whatsoever. 

Indeed, the munificence of the grants wduld be alone a strong argument to 
show that the government expected to secure in return rights of greater value 
than in the cases of grants for other public works. In the instances of grants 
to canals there was always a provision that the property and troops of the gov- 
ernment should pass through them free of toll or charge. Canals do not furnish 
the means of transportation, but merely of passage, and hence the grants were 
always less extensive. 

When it is said in these gi-ants that the railroad shall be and remain a public 
highway for the use of the government of the United States, free from toll or 
other charge upon the transportation of property or troops of the United States, 
the term railroad must be de<emed, according to the weight of judicial opinion, 
not to be limited to the mere roadway, but to include all the cars, machinery, 
equipments, and materials employed for operating the road. 

Nor can it well be conceived tnat a railroad company would prefer that the 
government should place its cars and machinery on the road to interfere with 
the running arrangements, to endanger the lives of passengers, and hazard the 
safe and speedy transportation of freight, to providing means of transportation 
itself; and trusting, if the service should be likely to become a grievous burden, 
to the liberality of the government to recompense it fairly for extraordinary ex- 
penditures. 

But the interpretation which the committee has given to these clauses seems 
to be so obviously supported by the language employed, and is so perfectly 
confirmed by contemporaneous construction, as not to require support from any 
other source. 

But while, in the opinion of the committee, such is the proper interpretation 
of the clauses referred to, they trust that they may be indulged in the sug- 
gestion that thero are considerations why this right should not, in all cases, be 
stemljr. claimed. In every instance Where railroads have been constructed 



RAILROADS CONSTRUCTED BY DONATIONS OP LAND. 5 

under tliesc land grants, the price of the public lands in their neighborhoods 
has been suddenly enhanced to at least twice their former value. The govern- 
ment has, therefore, lost nothing by its munificence. Where railroads have 
suffered, as some have, peculiar disasters from an almost total suspension of 
their ordinary business, and from injuries done to them merely because they 
have been regarded as important lines of transit for government troops and 
stores, a' stem enforcement of this ri^ht could hardly be distinguished from 
plain injustice. In such cases it would seem that the right ought to be main- 
tained merely as a salutary check against extortionate charges, or a refusal or 
indisposition to furnish to the government all proper facilities for the transpor- 
tation of troops and stores. * 
The committee recommend the adoption of the following resolution : 
Racived, That the several railroad companies which have received from 
States grants of public lands, made to such States by acts of Congress, for the 
purpose of aiding in the construction of the roads of such companies respectively, 
are required to transport the property and troops of the United States over their 
roads free of toll or other charge whatsoever.

Sir : I have the honor of submitting for yonr consideration enclosed draught 
^^ a " bill to revive part of an act therein named and for other purposes." 

The numerous expedients resorted to recently to evade the customs laws, 
*^d defraud the revenues, especially on our extended northern and northeastern 
'^Dtiers, render additional legislation of the character designed by this bill 
^i^tly desirable. The act of March 3, 1815, (3 Stat, p. 231,) part of which 
^^e bill is intended to revive, expired by limitation of the act of March 3, 1817, 
(^ Stat., 396,) by which it was temporarily revived, and since then there has 
^^isted no authority for stopping and searching carriages and other land vehicles, 
'^tlxer than those crossing our frontiers. It is proposed to revive this authority, 
*^^ci to extend the provisions of the 68th section of the collection act of 1799, 
^'^thorizing searches of houses, &c., under proper judicial warrants to inspectors. 
This is believed to be necessary, as many of the collection districts are so 
la^ge that the delays consequent upon procurmg the " special " authority now 
'Squired from collectors, naval officers or surveyors for suing out search 
^'arrants to be executed at points remote from the port of entry, often frustrate 
ttie objects sought to be accomplished. 

I think it would add materially to the efficacy of the law if the vehicles and 
leasts of burden, with all that appertains to them, were subjected to forfeiture, 
*» is provided by the bill. 

The other provisions regarding the giving of testimony by officers and others 
interested in the forfeitures are believed to be necessary also to an efficient ex- 
ecution of the revenue laws.

Very respectfully, 

JOHN BROUGH. 
Hon. James M. Ashley, 

Wasliington, D, C 



Joint resolution instructing the members of Congress from this State in relation 
to amending the Constitution of the United States, relative to slavery. 

\Vhereas, the declaration " that all men are created equal, and are endow- 
^^ hy their Creator with certain inalienable rights, among which are life, liberty,. 
^^d the pursuit of happiness, and to secure these rights all just govemment»« 
^^'^ instituted among men, deriving their just power from the consent of the- 
^^verned," is as true and self-evident now as when first enunciated by the- 
^*^thers and founders of the republic ; and, 

liVhereas, the Constitution of the United States was ordained and estabKsh*- 
^4 "to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility^ 
Provide for the common defence, promote the general welfare, and secure the 
^l^ssings of liberty to the people of the United States;" and, 

Whereas,' slavery, or involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for 
^J'ime, is a violation of the inherent and inalienable rights of men, a crime against 
i^stice and humanity, a disturber of the Union and of domestic tranquility, a 
■hindrance to the common defence, a spoiler of the public liberties, has inaugur 
W civil war, and is the cause of our national calamities ; therefore, 



2 AMENDMENT TO CONSTITUTION — LEGISLATURE OF OHIO. 

Be it resolved, hy the general asscmhly of the State of Ohio, That our sen- 
ators and representatives in Congress be requested to use their influence and 
vote for the proposition now pending in Congress to amend the Constitution of 
the United States, so that neither slavery or involuntary servitude, except as a 
punishment for crime, "whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall 
exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction, and 
giving to Congress power to enforce such prohibition by appropriate legislation. 
Resolved, That the governor be requested to forward to each of our senators 
and representatives in Congress a copy of these resolutions.

leave respectfully to represent that the following resolutions were adopted by 
the executive committee of this society, on the 15th September last, viz : 

" Resolced, That this society regards as a subject of great importance to the 
industrial and agricultural interests of the United States the project of Dr. D. J. 
Macgowan, for the appointment by the national government of a commission

Eastern Asia, with a view to acquire information bearing upon arts and man- 
ufactures,' and the processes of agriculture there presented; and to obtain and 
trausmit seeds, plants, and* animals, the cultivation and propagation of which 
would be likely to add to the valuable products of our farms.

AMERICAN GEOGRAPHICAL AND STATISTICAL SOCIETY. 

Your memorialists have much confidence in the ability and experience of Dr. 
Macgowan, and being made aware of his intention to place before your honora- 
ble body the project of opening negotiations for a commercial treaty with 
Cochin China, which may lead to the scientific and economic exploration of 
Eastern Asia, and would conduce to the interests of American arts and agricul- 
ture, heartily commend the enterprise to the consideration of the government. 
Your memorialists therefore beg to submit to your honorable body the expe- 
diency of enacting such laws as your wisdom may deem fit and proper to ac 
complish the object in view.

AMERICAN ETHNOLOGICAL SOCIETY. 

• • • That this society has passed a resolution highly approving the 
plan proposed by Dr. Macgowan, of New York, (now of the United States 
army, Veteran Reserve Corps,) for sending by the. general government a com- 
mission to Eastern Asia for diplomatic, commercial, scientific, and agricultural 
purposes ; and believing that the projected enterprise would conduce to the 
great advantage, profit, and honor of' our country, and to the benefit of science 
and humanity, the undersigned, in the name of the American Ethnological 
Society, respectfully recommend the project above mentioned. 

Signed by the president, George Folsom, and the secretary, Theodore 
Dwight. 

Presented by Mr. Conness, of California. 

The American Ethnological Society and the American Geographical and 
Statistical Society have conjointly addressed the Secretary of State on the 
subject in a memorial, which proposes that Madagascar should be included in 
the entei-prise. In an address to the President of the United States the former 
society says : The American Ethnological Society are of opinion that Dr. Mac- 
gowan is peculiarly Qualified, by his intimate and practical acquaintance with 
that part of the world, to select the particular countries, objects, and ways and 
means for such an undertaking, and that he has displayed good judgment in 
devising the plans for forming, instructing, and directing the expedition, and in 
indicating some of the productions in the different departments of nature and 
art which may be useful to our agriculture, commerce, and manufactures, and

bj proposing an easy, direct, and economical VfBj of sending the expedition by 
established routes of travel without the expense of employing national vessels 
for that purpose. 

Dr. Macgowan presents himself as an American patriot, who has already 
rendered great and spontaneous services to the Union by his able efforts in 
Europe to vindicate our national cause and our government against their foreign 
enemies and domestic traitors. He has devised, and now proposes, an enterprise 
which would afford to the world a practical proof of the tendencies of our 
frea in.«titutions, and the spirit and power of our nation, such as could be neither 
misunderstood nor misrepresented.

AMERICAN INSTITUTEr 

• • * At a meeting of the institute, held at the rooms in the city of 
New York, March 16, 1864, a resolution was adopted directing their officers 
and trustees to memorialize Congress for an appropriation, and for such other 
legislation as may be deemed necessary to carry out the proposed expedition to 
Eastern Asia, by our distinguished American citizen Dr. D. J. Macgowan. 

The undersigned, in behalf of the Ameiican Institute, an institution which 
lias for its object the advancement of commerce, agriculture, and the mechanic 
wts, earnestly recommend to the fostering of our national government the 
cxpedition.as one which can hardly fail to increase the number and variety of 
our agricultural products, will most likely add to the catalogue of useful 
^Diinals, and lead to the discovery of new and valuable fibrous textiles, give 
»n impetus to our foreign commerce, and promote generally the cause of science 
*od civilization. 

Your petitioners pray for the enactment of such laws or the adoption of such 
^solution as may secure to the proposed commissioner of exploration not only 
^^ch aid as will be satisfactory to its enlightened projector, but at the same time 
*^G creditable to a great and growing nation.

appointed at the last meeting in October, 1 863, to consider a plan of Dr. D.J. Mac- 
gowan for explorations in China and adjacent countries, having received a commu- 
fiication from that gentleman relative to the subject, though explaining his plan only 
^H part, take pleasure in expressing, in his behalf, the interest which they feel, as 
I'epresentatives of the American . Oriental Society, in any project which seems 
to promise to add to our knowledge of the east, whether scientific or practical, 
^nd their earnest wish that it may be found practicable to make such arrange- 
Uaents, and to obtain such co-operation and various facilities, under the auspices 
ftnd with the assistance of the government of the United States, as shall render 
I)r. Macgowan's plan fruitful in its results, alike honorable to our country and 
useful to the world.

Among public men, not members of Congress, who have commended the 
undertaking are Chief Justice Chase, ex-President Fillmore, Hon. A. H. Everett* 
J. P. Kennedy, Governor Andrew, and Hon. William Kelly, late president of the 
New York State Agricultural Society. It has been frequently advocated by the

New York Evening Post and the National Intelligencer, and favorable notices 
have been accorded by the New York Times, Tribune, Journal of Gommcrce, and 
the Washington Chronicle. Agricultural journals generally have given it their 
support, particularly the California Farmer. 



[From the New York Commercial Advertiser, January 23, 1865.] 
AMERICAN INTERESTS IN EASTERN ASIA. 

The project of Dr. Macgowan, of this city, late from China and Japan, of an 
industrial and scientific mission to various portions of Eastern Asia, continues to 
receive the support of agricultural and other public bodies. The American 
Geographical and Statistical Society and the American Ethnological Society 
have again called the attention of the general government to the subject. It is 
now under consideration by the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations and 
the House Committee on Agriculture. 

Few on the Atlantic coast, and not many on the shores of the Pacific, are 
aware of the importance of American interests in those extensive regions of the 
orient, which by the growth of our country have become to us a farther west. 
Dr. Macgowan's project contemplates the negotiation of commeroial treaties with 
all those countries which yet possess the requisite degree of independence to 
confer such privileges. At the same time the mission proposes the investiga- 
tion of the agriculture and arts of Eastern Asia, particularly China, and the 
transmission of seeds, plants, and animals, the cultivation and propagation of 
which is likely to add to the valuable product of our farms. 

Dr. Macgowan is well known as an orientalist. He published a newspaper in 
the Chinese language at Ningpo, where he acted as United States consul. He 
is the inventor of a contrivance by which the electric telegraph is applicable to 
the non-alphabetic characters of the Chinese language, and is an authority on 
matters connected with the politics and arts of China. Since his return to his 
native land he has delivered lectures on his travels, and is now in the public 
service, professionally, in connection with the Veteran Reserve corps. His patriot- 
ism was manifested before he returned home by the part which he took in 
Paris when the Americans in that city met to raise a fund for the purchase of 
Whit worth guns, at the commencement of the rebellion, and by his offer, while 
in Italy, to the governor of l^s native State, to act as surgeon to the colored 
troops, which, according to the accounts then published in Europe, Governor 
Sprague had then undertaken to. raise. The publication of Dr. Macgowan *8 
letter on the subject at that early day served, both in this country and in 
Europe, to strengthen the Union cause, and to dispel the prejudices against the 
employment of that agency in the maintenance of our nationality.

principal vein or mineral deposits, always having reference to and following the 
aip of the vein so far as it can or may be worked, with all the earth and mineral 
therein. But any mining district organized in accordance with the provisions 
of this chapter may prescribe the dimensions of said mining claim or pertenencia 
for such district, provided that in no case the dimensions so prescribed shall ex- 
ceed the number of yards allowed by this section; and further provided, that no 
such mining district shall diminish the extent of the territorial claim to one per- 
tenencia as defined in this section.

shall prove to the satisfaction of the recorder that the same has been done, and 
to post up a public notice of their claim at the opening of the principal vein, and 
to have them properly registered and recorded within three months from the 
time of first claiming them at the office of the mining district recorder according 
to the provisions of this chapter. Such record shall give a faithful description 
of the veins, mineral deposits, and tracts of lands, the character and bearing of 
the veins or deposits and their connection with natural monuments or conspicu-

and the same vein, and at or about the same time but at different places, and 
without knowledge of each other, then he or they who shall prove first occu- 
pancy shall have the right of first location, taking the principal point of excava- 
tion as the centre of their claim orclaimsoneach side along the general direction of 
such vein or deposit. The other parties shall proceed by the same laws after 
the others have fixed their boundaries. Should there be left vacant ground be- 
tween the different parties, then it shall be at the option of the first discoverers 
so to change their boundaries as shall best suit them, and have them recorded 
accordingly. Any other parties shall locate in the order of the time of their 
arrival on the vein or mineral deposit. 

Sec. 24. Whenever two or more parties shall select the same mine or mineral 
deposit for exploration, and the parties first on the ground, knowing the other 
pai'ties to be at work, shall fail to give warning, either verbally or in writing, of 
their priority claim on such vein or deposit, then that portion of the mine 
situated between the main excavations of the two parties shall be equally divided 
between them, irrespective of the number of members each company may have : 
Provided, That the intencning portions shall not exceed the quantity of land 
allowed by the provisions of this chapter.

such claims, and if he finds that the said claimants have, in all respects, complied 
with the provisions of this chapter, he shall make a decree, in substance, that 
the complainants, having complied with the laws of this Territory relating to 
the denouncement and registration of mines, have acquired a perfect title to 
their claims (describing the same) until the 1st day of January, A. D. 1868, 
and forever after, unless abandoned by them. And the said clerk shall give the 
said claimant a copy of such decree, under the seal of the court, which shall be

appeal, the said judge shall cause a record to be made in the office of his clerk 
of such decree, and a certified copy thereof may be made as aforesaid, with the 
like effect. And any claimants of mineral lands who, before this act takes 
-effect, have in any way or under any law acquired a title to such mineral lands, 
after filing with thi clerk of the court their evidence of title and description of 
claim, as required by this chapter, may cause an examination of the shaft sunk 
by them or other work done by them to be made as aforesaid, and take the like 
proceedings for the confirmation of their titles, with the same effect : Provided^ 
This section shall not apply except when the complainants are in possession of 
such mine or mining rights, claiming title thereto. 

Sec. 30. By reason of the Indian wars and unsettled condition of the country,

privileges provided for in this chapter. 

Sbc. 31. No single person or company shall be compelled to sink shafts or 
make other improvements on more than one of the tracts of land claimed by 
him or them for the same vein or mineral deposit, and any number of claimants 
on the same vein or mineral deposit, who may unite for said purpose, shall be 
allowed to concentrate labor, capital, and energy to any one single point which 
to him or them shall be best suited to ascertain to the best advantage the gen- 
eral character, quality, and capacity of that particular vein or mineral deposit, 
and may take the like proceedings to confirm their titles. 

Sec. 32. After the work required by section 28 of this chapter has been per- 
formed, and the record thereof made as therein provided, two years shall be 
allowed tl;e claimants of mineral lands to develop the same, and procure ma- 
chinery and provide for working the same, and during that time the same shall 
not be considered abandoned although no work be done thereon: Provided, 
That in such event they shall annually, and before the first day of June in each 
year, file with the clerk of the probate court an affidavit signed by them that 
they have not abandoned such claims, but intend in good faith to work them ; 
and said term of two years shall not commence until the first day of January, 
A. D. 1868. And after the expiration of said term of two years, it shall be 
obligatory upon claimants to such mineral lands to hold actual possession of 
them, and work the vein, which obligation shall be considered as complied with 
by doing at least thirty days work thereon in each year ; but if such claimants 
are prevented from working such vein by the hostility of Indians, or other good 
cause, rendering said working difficult or dangerous, they may, by authority of 
the judge of probate first obtained, be relieved from performing labor thereon 
from time to time, but for not more than one year at any one time, during the 
continuance of such cause. 

Sec. 33. Any person who may discover a mineral vein or deposit as afore- 
said, which is not included within a mining district, or which may be in a mining 
district in which there is no legally authorized recorder, may acquire title thereto, 
and to auxiliary lands, by giving notice, as aforesaid, and recording the same with 
the clerk of tlie probate court of the county in which the same is situated, and 
may take the same proceedings with the like effect with the clerk of the probate 
court that are required to be taken with the recorder of a mining district. 

Sec. 34. Discoverers of mines on lands in the legal ownership or possession 
of others, and not public lands, before doing the work of sinking the shaft re- 
quired by section 28 of this chapter, shall pay to such parties such compenfla- 



MINING LAWS OP ARIZONA. 9 

tion for the use of the same as may be awarded by the judge of probate, upon 
complaint of either party, or shall give bond to such parties for payment of the 
same, and sureties to be approved by said judge ; and whenever it becomes ne- 
cessary or advantageous to construct tunnels for the purpose of drainage, ven- 
tilation, or the better hauling of ores or other subterraneous products or mining 
xnaterials, it shall be lawful for aiiy party or parties to construct such tunnel or 
drift through all private and public property: Provided^ That all damages 
Arising from such subterranean works to the other parties, to be determined as 
provided above, shall be paid by ftie parties for whose benefit such tunnelling is 
done, to be paid before said work is commenced, or security given to the satis- 
faction of the judge of probate for payment of the same ; but no damages shall 
l>e paid on public lanas when claims for such lands shall be set up after such 
tunnel shall have been projected or actually in process of construction : Pro- 
Tided, That the lapse of time between projection and actual work shall not ex- 
ceed ninety days, and that the tunnelling parties give timely. notice of their 
project to any new claimant of the so affected ground. 

Sec. 35. Whenever such tunnel as mentioned in the preceding section shall 
intersect or traverse mineral deposits, or run along lodes claimed and held by 
other parties, then it shall be at the option of the owners of such other mineral 
deposits either to pay one-half of the expense of excavation for the distance 
that such tunnel runs through their mineral deposits, and secure the whole of 
the ores excavated, or to divide the ores with the tunnelling parties, the latter 
paying all expenses of excavation, or it shall be optional with either party to 
abandon all claims to the ores excavated. 

Sec. 36. If in the construction of such subterranean works new veins or

said copartnership or company, or tenants in common interested therein, or cause 
such other notice to be given to them as he may think proper, requiring them 
to make answer thereto, and if upon a hearing on such complaint the judge is

proceed thereon as before provided in this section ; and if upon a hearing of

mine, and that there is no good reason why the same should not be worked, he 
shall make a decree to that effect ; and if the other partners do not appear he 
may appoint an agent and receiver, who shall protect their rights, and see that 
the mine is properly worked, and shall receive their proportion of the profits, 
but su«h partners or tenants in common so authorized to work as aforesaid, 
shall conduct said work at their own expense, and shall not be authorized to 
bind such other persons to the payment of any indebtedness which they may 
incur in that behalf.

Title V. 

OP THE TERRITORIAL CLAIM, AND OF ALLUVIAL AND DILUVIAL DEPOSITS, 

Skc. 51. It shall be the duty of persons who may discover and claim mining 
rights or mineral lands, at the same time that they may define the boundary of 
their claim or claims to any lode or mine as required by the provisions of this 
chapter, to lay off and define the boundaries of one pertenencia as required by 
the provisions of this chapter, adjoining their claim or claims, which shall be 
the property of the Territory of Arizona. And at the same time that they 
present their notice of claim or claims to be recorded by the recorder of the 
mining district they shall also present to such recorder the claim of said Ter- 
ritory. And if said discoverers and claimants shall neglect or refuse to present 
to such recorder the claim of said Territory as aforesaid they shall forever 
forfeit all claim to the mine or ledge so discovered by them. Any recording 
officer recording the claim or claims of such discoverers and claimants, when 
the claim of said Territory is not filed therewith as aforesaid, shall be subject 
to all the penalties provided in section 26 of this chapter. Such claim shall 
be recorded as provided in this chapter for like claims, but no work shall be

the probate court as soon as he records the said claim shall send a copy of his 
record to the treasurer of the Territory, and no fees shall be charged by any 
recording officer in any matter relating to said claim. And the territorial 
treasurer may at any time after six months from the day he receives such re- 
cord as aforesaid, and at such time and place as in his opinion will be most for 
the interest of the Territory, cause such claim to be sold at auction to the 
highest bidder, but every such sale shall be at least twice advertised in the 
territorial newspaper, and be held at his office, or the oflSce of the clerk of the 
probate court, or recorder of the mining district of the county where the 
claim is situated. And the treasurer is authorised to make a deed of the same 
to the purchaser in the name of the Territory. And the amount received by 
him shall be added by him to any fund now or hereafter provided for the pro- 
tection of the people of the Territory of Arizona against nostile Indians, and 
be expended as provided by law. And after all expenses as are incurred by the 
territorial authorities for the purpose of destroying or bringing into subjection 
all hostile Indian tribes in this Territory are liquidated, then all remaining or ac- 
cruing funds, out of all or any sales of territorial mining claims, shall be ap- 
plied as a sinking fund for school purposes. 

Sec. 52. The extraction of gold from alluvial and diluvial deposits, gene- 
rally termed placer mining, shall not be considered mining proper, and shall 
not entitle persons occupied in it to the provisions of this chapter, nor shall any 
previous section of this chapter be so construed as to refer to the extraction of 
gold from the above mentioned deposits. 

Sec. 53. This chapter shall be in force and take effect from and after the 1st 
day of July, A. D. 1865.

JOINT RESOLUTIONS AND MEMORIAL to Congress, asking an increase per diem for 
members and officers of the legislative assembly and an increase of the salaries of 
territorial judges. 

To the Senate and Hotis€ of Representatives of the United States in Congress 

assembled : 

Your memorialistB, the council and house of representatives of the Territory 
of Arizona, most respectfully represent that — 

Whereas the organic act of this Territory, drawn up on the basis of the 
other Territories of the United States, provides that the pay per diem of the 
members of the first and subsequent legislative assemblies should be three 
dollars during their attendance at the session thereof, and the officers of said 
legislative assemblies, together with all the territorial officers, are allowed a 
compensation in like proportion ; and 

Whereas, on account of the great distance from the manufacturing and 
producing sections, from whence the inhabitants of this Territory obtain nearly 
all their necessary articles of consumption, such as provisions, clothing, &c., 
the cost of such articles are nearly three times and in some instances ten 
times the cost of similar commodities in the more eastern parts of the United 
States government ; and 

Whereas it is therefore manifestly unjust that such a compensation should 
be laid at so low a rate : Therefore, your memorialists would respectfully ask 
your honorable body so to amend the organic act as to allow eight dollars per 
diem for each member and officer in attendance on such first and subsequent 
legislative assembly, and an adequate addition to the salaries of the governor,

secretary, and superintendent of Indian affairs of the Territory, of not more 
than fifteen hundred dollars, be allowed, and an addition to the salaries of each 
of the three territorial judges of not more than fifteen hundred dollars be 
allowed, and that the salary of the United States district attorney be increased 
to two thousand dollars, and that the salary of the United States marshal be 
increased to fifteen hundred dollars, and that the pay of the United States 
district clerks be increased to fifteen dollars per day, and that the pay of the 
United States grand jurors be increased to eight dollars per day. Be it 

Resolved by the council and house of representatives of the Territory of 
Arizona, That our delegate to Congress be, and hereby is, requested to use all 
honorable means to bring this subject to the favorable consideration of Congress, 
and obtain a redress of grievances ; and be it further

MEMORIAL of the legislative assembly of tlio Territory of Arizona. 

^0 the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States in Congress 

assembled : 

Your memorialists, the council and house of representatives of the legislative 
-^ssemblj of the Territory of Arizona, respectfully represent : That the four tribes 
^f Indians known as the Yavapais, Hualipais, Mojaves, and Yumas, numbering 
«bout ten thonsand, are now scattered over an extent of country from the Gila 
river on the south to the northern boundary of the Territory, and from the 
Colorado river on the west to the Rio Verde on the east ; that these Indians are 
now roaming at large over the vast territory above described, gaining a precari- 
ous subsistence from the small patches of land along the Colorado river, which 
they cultivate, and from fishing and hunting ; that when the seasons are un- 
favorable to their little farming interests, or the Colorado river does not over- 
flow to irrigate and enrich their fields, they are reduced to a starving condition, 
and compelled, by necessity, to make raids upon the stock and property of 
the whites, and not unfrequently do they ambush the traveller and miner, and 
waylay and stampede the stock of trains and plunder their packs and wagons; 
that the whites are settling up the country, and necessarily diminishing their 
means of subsistence, and increasing the dangers of a collision with them ; that 
the late superintendent of Indian affairs of the Territory, honorable Charles D. 
Poston, in view of their scattered and destitute condition, selected and caused 
to be laid off, on the east bank and bottom of the Colorado river, a reservation 
ample enough for the accommodation and support of all the above-named tribes ; 
that an irrigating canal can be constructed at an expense of a small amount, (the 
Indians performing the labor,) that will render highly productive a large tract 
of land that will yield an abundance for their support, and afford a large sur- 
plufl to be disposed of for their education and improvement; thal^when placed 



2 INDIANS OF ARIZONA. 

upon said reservation tbey can, under judicious management, be made not only 
self-sustaining, but to produce largely for the market ; that, to enable those wha 
may be placed over them or have charge of them to open said canal, to remove 
them upon said reservation and sustain them until they can, by their own labor, 
provide enough for their subsistence, your memorialists respectfully ask of your 
honorable body an appropriation of one hundred and fifty thousand dollars ; 
that to secure the attention and favorable consideration of the subject and mat- 
ters of this memorial by the Congress of the United States, be it 

Resolved by the legulative assembly of the Territory of Arizona, Th^t our 
delegate in Congress, the honorable Charles D. Poston, be requested to use all 
honorable means to bring the lubject before Congress ; and be it further 

Resolved, That his excellency the governor of the Territory of Arizona be 
requested to forward this memorial, together with such other information touch- 
ing the subject as he may have in his possession, to the honorable Charles D,

MEMORIAL of the legislative assembly of the TciTitory of Arizona. 

^^ the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States in Congress 

assembled : 

Your memorialists, the council and house of representatives of the Territory 
^^ Arizona, respectfully represent, that the Colorado river is the only navigable 
^^ter in this Territory, and is the channel through which nearly all our import- 
^Jit exports must pass to supply and accommodate the middle and nortnem 
t^ortion of the Territory; that it is navigable in high stages of water five hun- 
^d miles ; that by the expenditure of a small amount of money it may be 
tendered navigable much higher up ; that portion of the river between Fort 
^uma and Fort Mojave has a changeable channel, and is obstructed by boulders 
ihaf render the navigation of it difficult and dangerous; that the removal of said 
rocks would greatly facilitate the navigation of this part of the river; that the 
river above Fort Mojave is rendered difficult and dangerous by boulders, and 
ledges or dykes, that shoot out into and across the channels of the river; that 
by the expenditure of a small amount of money these obstacles may be removed 
and the river rendered navigable as far up as Virgin river, from which point 
there is a fine natural wagon road a distance of only 350 miles to Salt Lake 
City ; that by this route government, as well as private transportation, can be 
furnished in a much shorter time, and at less cost than by any other route ; thak 
if the navigation of said river is improved it will accommodate the general gov- 
ernment and greatly increase and hasten the development of the vast mineral 
and other resources of this Territory. Therefore, your memorialists most re- 
flpectfuUy ask, that your honorable body make an appropriation for the purposes 
above specified, of one hundred and fifty thousand dollars, to be expended in 
the following manner, to wit : Fifty thousand dollars to be expended in the im- 
provements of the river between Fort Yuma and Fort Mojave, and one hundred 
thousand dollars to be expended in improving the Upper Colorado river above 
Fort Mojave ; and that to the furtherance of this our petition, be it

WAR AGAINST THE APACHES.

MEMORIAL 

THE LEGISLATURE OF ARIZONA, 

ASKING 

Of Congress an appropriation of $250,000 in aid of the war against the Apaches. 



Jaxuary 25, 1865. — Referred to the Committee on Military Affairs and ordered to be printed. 

MEMORIAL of the legislative assembly of the Territory of Arizona. 

To the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States in Congress 

assembled : 

Your memorialists, the council and house of representatives of the legislative 
assembly of the Territory of Arizona, respectfully represent, that the depre- 
Nations of the hostile Apaches are now the only barrier to a speedy settlement 
of this Territory. The working of mines of unequalled value, the occupancy 
of fanning and pastural lands of excellent quality, and the development of all 
tne resources of the Territory, depend upon the subjugation of the barbarous 
(Apaches) foe so long a terror of the settler within our borders. It were vain 
^ solicit capital or emigration until the power of the Apache is broken. Recent 
^mpaigns against him, waged by civil and military expeditions, have been 
attended with considerable success ; but enough has not been done, and your 
Memorialists respectfully request the aid of government in prosecuting a war 
^til the Apache shall be forced, as the Navajo has been, to go upon a reserva- 
tion. 

To this end, an appropriation of two hundred and fifty thousand dollars is 
^ked at your hands, it being understood that such portion, if any, of the fund 
^ may not be used in arming and sustaining companies of rangers in the field 
^lall be applied to the care of such of the Indians as shall go upon a reservation ; 
^le whole fund to be placed in the hands of the commissioners already appointed 
^y the territorial legislature to conduct the war upon the Apaches now in 
J)rogre88, and to which the whole power of the Territory is to be applied. 

The remoteness of this Territory, the expense of sustaining a large military 
force here, and the necessity of the overthrow of the Apache to our existence, 
embolden ua to believe that our request will be received as proper, and our plan 
of operations as likely to prove the most successful and economical that can be 
devised; and your memorialists, as in duty bound, will ever pray.

JOINT RESOLUTION 



OF 



THE LEGISLATURE OF ARIZONA, 



INSTRUCTING 



Hon. C, D. Poslon to ask of Congress the appointment of commissioners to fix 
the boundary lines between the Territory (^Arizona and other Territories, 



Jahuart 26, 1865 —Referred to the Committee on the Territories and ordered to be 

printed. 



JOINT RESOLUTION inHtnicting Hon. Charles D. Poston to urge the Congress of the 
United States to appoint commissioners to survey and establish the boundary line be- 
tween Nevada, Utah, and Colorado Territories and Arizona. 

Whereas the settlements of Santa Clara and Saint George, on the Rio 
Virgen, contain a population of some five hundred inhabitants, and are now 
claimed and submit to the jurisdiction of the Territory of Utah ; and whereas 
it is believed that said settlements are south of the 37th degree of north lati- 
tude, and within the Territory of Arizona; and whereas the rapid settlement 
of this Territory along and near its boundary lines, in connexion with its known 
rich mineral and agricultural wealth, make the question of civil jurisdiction one 
of delicacy and vexation, only to be obviated by speedily locating and marking 
permanently such boundaries : Therefore, 

Be it resolved by the legislative assembly of the Territory of Arizona : 1st. 
That the Hon. Charles D. Poston, our delegate in Congress, be, and is hereby,

^HORIAL to the honorable House of Representatives and Senate of the United States in 

Cohgress assembled : 

Tour memorialists, the legislative assembly of the Territory of Arizona, 
wapectfully represent : That by the treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, between 
the United States and the republic of Mexico, ratified in 1848, the boundary 
^e between the two republics should consist of a straight line drawn from the 
nuddle of the Gila river, where it unites with the Colorado, to a point on the 
<^t of the Pacific ocean, distant one marine league, south of the southernmost 
Pobt of the port of San Diego; that in pursuance of said treaty, the boundary 
^e was run by the commissioners appointed by the two republics for that pur- 
pose; that in running the line according to said treaty, the said boundary line 
f'ogsed the Rio Colorado twice through a northern bend of that tortuous river, 
oy which means a tract of land, consisting of about one hundred and fifty acres 
•onth of said bend, was thrown into the limits of the United States, thus leaving 
* small portion of the territory of the United States beyond the Colorado 
^ver, which separated it from every other portion of their territory; that 
^lien California was admitted into the Union as a State, in eighteen hundred 
^d fifty, it was admitted with the same boundary on the south as declared in 
'^er constitution ; that was specified in the said treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, 
^d run by the commissioners aforesaid, the river Colorado separating tnc 
^all tract of land before specified from the remainder of the State. Your 
Memorialists further represent, that the organic act of the Territory of Arizona, 
*J*proved the twenty-fourth of February, A. D. 1863, declared all that part of 
^© Territory of New Mexico situated west of a line running due south from 
*he point where the southwest comer of the Territory of Colorado joins the 
ji^ttnem boundary of the Territory of New Mexico, to the southern boundary 
^'ie of the Territory of New Mexico, should be and was erected into a territorial 
^Vemment to be called Arizona; that the boundary of New Mexico on the 
^^t, by the organic act creating that Territory, approved September 9, 1850, 
^^ the boundary line of the State of California from the thirty-seventh parallel 
^^ north latitude, 8<ygb to the point of the Colorado river where said boundary

as aforesaid. That afterwards, by the Gadsden treaty of 1854, the southen 
portion of the Territory of Arizona was acquired from the republic of Mexico 
attached to New Mexico by an act of Congress of the United States, and th( 
boundary run and fixed by a joint commission of the two republics, at an initia 
point on the Colorado, twenty miles below the junction of the river Gila witl 
the Colorado ; by this means the western boundary of Arizona runs from th( 
37th degree of latitude the whole length of the California boundary on the 
south and beyond the line of that State on the Colorado river ; that said smal 
tract of land lies just below the junction of the river Gila with the Colorado 
that it is in an important commercial point, and is the commercial landing-place 
and business point for the Territory of Arizona on the lower Colorado ; that il 
is opposite Fort Yuma, and is remote from any civil government or^janized ir 
California ; that there are no police and civil regulations there ; that it is essentia) 
and important to Arizona to have said tract of land annexed to its Territory 
for the purpose of forming a landing-place and a commercial town ; that it is ol 
little importance to the State of California, and of vast consequence to Arizona 
to possess it ; that if annexed to Arizona the benefit of civil government would 
be immediately extended over it from Arizona City, which lies adjoining it on 
contiguous territory, separated from it by an imaginary line, while the Colorado 
flows between the said tract of land and the other portions of the territory of the 
State of California. 

Wherefore, your memorialists pray your honorable body to pass an act by 
which the said tract of territory of the State of California lying south of 
Fort Yuma and the Colorado river, and between the Colorado river and the 
Territory of Arizona, be annexed to said Territory of Arizona, providing that 
the State of California by an act of her State legislature will relinquish all her 
right over said tract of land to the said Territory of Arizona. 

That our delegate in Congress is hereby requested to use all honorable means 
in his power to secure the passage of said act. 

That his excellency the governor of the Territory of Arizona is hereby re- 
quested to transmit a copy of this memorial to our delegate in Congress ; also a 
copy to the governor of the State of California, with the request to forward 
such other information in his possession that it may be laid before the legislature 
of the State of California.

following report to the President and Congress, in pursuance of the duties im- 
pOBed upon it by the resolutions of said convention : 

In order to a clear and intelligent understanding of the proceedings of the 
convention, it will be necessary to give a brief history of its antecedents and 
organization. On the evening of the 5th of March, 1864, a large number of the 
n»08t influential citizens, and many of the members of the legislature of the State 
of Iowa met at the capitol of the State, at Des Moines, in pursuance of the follow- 
ing call : 

**Des Moines, March 5, 1864.

the above-named call, issued the following circular : 

" Des Moines, Iowa, March 16, 1864. 

**Dear Sfr: At a meeting of a large and respectable number of citizens, and many of the

souri, Wisconsin, and Minnesota, friendly to the constniction of a ship canal, connecting 
the Mississippi river, from some point opposite the State of Iowa, with Lake Michigan, to 
meet in convention at Dubuque, in said State, on the first Wednesday ot May next, to delib- 
erate upon the measure. In the opinion of the committee the subject resolves itself into the 
following propositions, which they take the liberty of presenting for the consideration of the 
convention, to wit: 

**lst. To select the nearest, most practicable, and least expensive route for a ship canal 
from some point opposite the State of Iowa to connect with Lake Michigan, for the con- 
struction of which the people in the Upper Mississippi valley desire and expect to receive aid 
from Conpess. 

*'2d. Ihe improvement of the rapids of the Mississippi river, in connexion with the pro- 
posed ship canal. 

**You, sir, are most cordially and earnestly invited and requested to be present at saii

*^ Resolved y That in acknowledging the ^.nvitation of the committee of anangements 
appointed at the capitol on the 5th of March to attend the * northwestern ship canal con- 
vention,* we do hereby express our emphatic approval of the objects of that convention, viz., 
to induce Congress to take measures to remove the obstructions of or build a ship canal 
around the rapids of the Mississippi river, and also to constnict a ship canal from the Missis- 
sippi river opposite the eastern border of the State of Iowa to Lake Michigan, as a matter of 
vast importance to the comn:crcial and agricultural interests of Iowa and the northwest.

NORTHWESTERN SHIP CANAL CONVENTION. 3 

At the same time the house of representatives passed the following resolution : 

** Resolved by the house of represmtatices of the State of foica, That Wm. J. Gilchrist, a 
memlier of this house, bo direett'd to proceed to Madison, tlio capital of Wisconsin, and to 
extend lo the honorable the legislature of said State the invitation of the committee appointed 
for that pur|)ose at a meeting of niany of the citizens of Iowa at Des Moines, and a portion of 
the nieniDers of the general assembly, to attend the northwestern ship canal convention, to 
meet at the city of Dubuque on the first Wednesday of May next, the object of which is to 
induce Congress to take measures to remove the obstructions of or build a canal around the 
upper and lower rapids of the Mississippi river, and also to construct a ship canal from some 
point opposite the eastern border of Iowa to connect the Mississippi river with Lake Michigan ; 
and that an engrossed copy of this resolution be made, signed by the honorable speaker of 
this house, for presentation to the legislature of Wisconsin. 

'* JACOB BUTLER, 
** Speaker of the House of Htpresentatites/^ 

Mr. Gilchrist accordingly visited the Wisconsin legislature and tendered the 
aforesaid invitation. In response to which, the following resolutions were 
adopted by the Wisconsin senate and also by the house : 

*' Whereas the house of representatives of the State of Iowa, by a resolution duly authenti- 
cate<l under the seal uf said State, through the Hon. W. J. Gilchrist, one of its members, 
has transmitted to the legislature of Wisconsin an invitation to attend the northwestern 
ship canal convention apjiointed to me<^t at Dubuque on. the first Wednesday of May next; 
Hnd whereas the object of fcaid convention, in our estimation, is one of not only vital im- 
portance to the great commercial, agricultural, and other industiial interests of our State, 
and an imperious necessity to a speedy and full development of the vast resources of our 
sister State of Iowa and of the entire northwest in times of peace, but one which, in times 
of war, may be developed into a speedy, cheap, and sure means of defence to populous cities 
and thousands of miles of now almost defenceless frontier: therefore, 
** Rcsohed, (the assembly concuring,) That we hail with much gratification so vigorous a 
'^lanifestation in behalf of so worthy and patriotic an object by our sister State, and hereby 
^^^commeud that as many of the members of this legislature tis conveniently can, as well as 
^tter citizens throughout the Stale, attend said convention, and we hereby pledge our sym- 
F*t4tliy and hearty co-operation in all that can contiilmte to Fccure success to the result of its 
^^lightened deliberations. 

'' Resohed, That we tender to the house of repiesentatives of Iowa and the friends of this 
'^iovement our thanks for the privilege of thus pa)ticii)atiiig in the promotion of an interest of 
^Vich stupendous magnitude, and of such vital and enduring interest to our own State, the 
'^^rthwest, and our common country. 

'^ Resolcedy That the clerk of the senate be directed to transmit to the Hon. Wm. J. Gil- 
^^Irist, at McGregor, Iowa, an engrossed copy of the foregoing preamble and resolutions, 
^nly authenticated by the secretary of state, to be by him presente<l to the house of repre- 
sentatives and to the said canal convention if he shall deem it advisable." 

The press of the country immediately took up the subject and gave it all the 
Encouragement and support in their power. The expression of the public senti- 
^^ent through that source was strong, unanimous, and unmistakable. 

The Milwaukie Sentinel, one of the most influential journals of Wisconsin, 
5and indeed of the entire west, commenting on the above proceedings of the legis- 
lature of that State, says : 

"We published on Saturday the legislative resolutions in relation to the ship canal con- 
vention, to be held at Dubuque on the first Wednesday of May next, which indorsed the 
object of the convention *as one of not only vital importance to the great commercial, agri- 
cultural, and other industrial interests of our State, and an imperious necessity to a speedy 
development of the vast resources of our sister State of Iowa and of the northwest in time 
of peace, but one which, in time of war, may bo developed into a speedy, cheap, and sure 
means of defence to popiUous cities and thousands of miles of now almost delenceless fron- 
tier.* W^e are glad that our legislature has thus heartily responded to the action of the people 
of northern Iowa, whose interests in this matter are entirely identical with those of our own 
State, and we trust that Wisconsin will be fully represented at the convention. W^hatover 
may be our views as to the abstract question of asking the general government to build canals 
within the limits of single States, there can be no question tis to the duty and interest of the 
representatives of Wisconsin, northern Iowa, and Minnesota in this matter." 

**If there is a disposition in Congress to favor such enterprises, the claims of the cheapest 
^nd best canal route between the lakes and the Mississippi should be earnestly and faithl'ullj 
fepreiented." 



4 NORTHWESTERN SHIP CANAL CONVENTION.* 

The Maquoketa (Iowa) Excelsior says : 

'* Wc see hy our exchanges that the question of building a ship canal, connecting tho 
waters of Lake Michigan and the Mississippi river, is being quite freely discussed through- 
out the State, and, in our opinion, it would bo one of the grandest achievements of the 
age, buildii)^ up the substantial interests of our State and making Iowa a much cheaper 
communication to all the eastern market^} than can be afforded by railroad facilities alone. 
Iowa has long suffered hy the monopolies of corporations, and it has cost about every other 
bushel of our grain before our surplus cereals could reach the eastern markets. The time has 
come when the fertile prairie States west of the Mississippi have a voice that will bo heard 
by tho nation, if all only unite, that will give us a ship canal from our western waters, so we 
can reap the benefit, as well as share the praise, of feeding the opulent cities of the east, and 
send our surplus to the nations of the Old World," 

The North Iowa (Osage, Mitchell county) Standard says : 

"This canal will do for the States west of tho Mississippi more than the famous Erie canal 
has done for the whole west. The completion of a 'ship canal' between tho father of waters 
and the great lakes, capable of bearing upon its bosom the present and prospective products 
of a might v empire, will be an epoch in our history worthy to bo celebrated by the firing of 
cannon and the shouting of millions. We would urge upon the citizens of Mitchell county the 
propriety of taking steps to be well represented in the convention. Let it be known that the 
* top county' of the Iowa cedar valley is alive to the best interests of her citizens and of her 
section." 

These extracts are given here as evidences of the unanimons spirit of the 
press throughout the west ; there is not a dissenting voice among them all. In 
addition to these means of informing the public mind, and interesting it in the 
contemplated movement, the above-named circular was sent to great numbers of 
the most prominent business, influential, and learned men of those and other 
States, as also to most of the members of Congress Provision was also made for 
the appointment of delegates from the counties and cities of said States. 

In pursuance of the above call being thus most emphatically indorsed, large 
numbers of the leading, most distinguished, and most influential citizens of these 
and other States met in convention in Dubuque, Iowa, on the 4th of May, 1864, 
being the day and place fixed upon for that purpose, and organized by the elec- 
tion of Hon. C. C. Cole, of Iowa, president and , 

secretaries. 

Among other proceedings, the convention unanimously adopted the following 
preamble and resolutions : 

'* Whereas the exposed and defenceless condition of our lake frontier and the rapidly in- 
creasing inland navigation and commerce of the lakes, embracing as it does nearly one- 
half of the entire amount of the whole nation, as also the peculiar and somewhat precari- 
ous condition of oul* foreign relations with some of the European powers, most imperatively 
demand that the general government should tal^e immediate measures so to improve the 
great water communication between the east and the west as shall enable it, in all cases of 
emergency, to transport stores and munitions of war with the least possible delay, and also 
to send its gunboats and other ships-of-war to any part of the country whenever they may 
be needed in prosecuting naval and military operations; and whereas the rapidly increas- 
ing development of the vast agricultural, mineral, and commercial resources of the north- 
west, and more especially of the Upper Mississippi valley, require and demand the opening 
up, at the earliest possible period, of a water communication between the eastern seaboard 
and the Mississippi river by the nearest, cheapest, and most expeditious and most practi- 
cable route : therefore, 

**/?c5o/Fcrf, That while we would not object to the construction of a ship canal from La- 
salle to the Mississippi river, if cheiip and practicable — if not, one terminating at the mouth 
of the Illinois river — our duty to the great bread-producing States of the northwest will 
demand that we persistently urge upon Congress tlie necessitjr of an appropriation for the 
enlargement of the Fox and Wisconsin river improvements, as being most eminently cheap 
and practicable, necessary for military defence, and to afford facilities for the cheap trans- 
portation of the products of the northwest to an Atlantic and European market. 

^^ Resohrd, That the improvement of the upper and lower rapids of the Mississippi by 
canal is a proper counterpart and complement of a canal to the lakes ; is necessary to give 
full value to the latter work ; and is imperatively demanded by the highest considei-atious of 
public policy and for the good of the whole nation. 

*• Resolttd^ That this convention would most respectfully but earnestly recommend to th^ 
people of the whola country, and more especially of the Upper Mississippi valley, that thejr 



NORTHWESTERN SHIP OANAL CONVENTION. 5 

adopt the foreg'oiDg system of improveincnts as a national policy, and insist on all occasions 
that their members in Congress shall receive and adopt it as their prop^ramme, upon which 
to base all their actions on the subject of internal improvements of a national character. 

*' Resolved^ That while at the present crisis in our national history we would approve and 
ur^ the most rigid economy in the administration of public affairs, both as a matter of wis- 
dom in the State and justice to the overburdened tax-payere, we would, nevertheless, 
recommend for the measure above named a liberal appropriation from the public treasury, 
believing that liberality in this direction is true economy ; that the food-producers of the 
nation are its most efficient and essential army; and that strength and encouragement to 
them, increase in the areii of cultivation, invitation to foreign immigration and settlement, 
to take the place of the noble men who, from a sense of duty, have gone at the call of the 
State, are the surest means to strengthen the national arms and procure national success. 

*' Resolved, That this convention would further recommend that hereafter, in all election 
canvasses, candidates for office and others, addressing the people on national questions, 
should also discuss these measures i^ of paramount importance to the whole couutry. 

" Resolved, That this convention would respectfully but earnestly urge upon the people of 
the whole Mississippi valley that they should exact from their senators and representatives 
in Congress an unconditional pledge that while they will adopt a wise and liberal policy 
towards all works of internal improvement of a national character and importance, thev 
should, at the same time, make it an iudispeusuble condition of their support of such 
measures that the constnietion of the proposed ship canal to the hikes and the canal around 
the upper and lower rapids of the Mississippi river shall be made a part and parcel of such 
public works. 

^^ Resolved, That a copy of this report, preamble, and resolutions, signed by the president 
and secretary of this convention, be sent to each member of Congress, with an urgent request 
that he give to these great national measures his cjrdial and earnest support. 

*^ Resolved, That there be appointed an executive committee of ten, three of whom shall 
reside in Dubuque, whose duty it shall be to take measures to have the proceedings of this 
convention laid before Congress at the earliest practicable period, and tuat said committee 
shall adopt all such measures as may be necessary to carry out the objects and purposes of 
this convention. 

^* Resolved, That the committee be instructed to request the senators and members of the 
house of representatives of the State of Iowa, Minnesota, and Wisconsin, at Washington, 
to act in concert with each other to obtain an appropriation from Congress for the survey of 
the Fox and Wisconsin rivers, with a view of making it a ship canal, and that said survey 
be made under instnictions of the Secretaries of War and Navy. 

*^ Resolved, That the executive committee prepare and send to the President and Congress 
Q memorial in behalf of the proposed improvements. 

*'C. C. COLE, President. 

'* Secretary." 

The president appointed the following named gentlemen as an executive 
committee, in pui-suance of the resolution on that subject : Hon. Wm. J. Gil- 
christ, of McGregor; B. B. Richards, George W. Jones, Piatt Smith, and 
Lewis A. Thomas, of Dubuque, Iowa; L. W. Barden, of Portage City; D. W. 
Brisbois, of Prairie du Chien ; M. M. Davis, of Appleton ; Charles Kallacz, of 
Sauk City, Wisconsin ; and D. W. Ingersoll, of St. Paul, Minnesota. 

The objects and purposes of the assembling of that convention were, to take 
into consideration the practicability and expediency of certain contemplated 
works of internal improvements of vast and vital importance to the great north- 
west, indeed of the whole country. 

1. A ship canal from fome point on the Mississippi river opposite the eastern 
boundary of the State of Iowa to connect with Lc^ke Michigan, 

2. The improvement of the navigation of the Mississippi river by the con- 
ilruction of a **ship canal" around the upper and lower rajfids thereof. 

These contemplated works have become of vast and vital importance, not 
merely to the whole country, but more especially to the " Upper Mississippi 
valley " — indeed it is our only salvation. This term flipper Mississippi valley) 
is perhaps somewhat ambiguous, but, in connexion with the subject-matter under 
consideration, it is intended to include all that portion of the valley of the Mis- 
sissippi river embraced in the States of Iowa and Minnesota, the western por- 
tions of Illinois and Wisconsin, and the eastern portions of the Territories of 
Nebraska and Dakota, containing, in the aggregate, an area of more than three 
hundred thousand square miles. This valley has at the present time a popula- 



6 NORTHWESTERN SHIP CANAL CONVENTION. 

tion exceeding two millions, and, according to the present rate of increase, will 
have more than five millions in ten years, and more than ten millions in twenty 
years. This vast region is emphatically an agricultural and pastural country, 
having in all its parts a geni nl climate, unsurpassed fertility of soil, and abound- 
ing in timber, water, minerals, coal, and every other element and advantage neces- 
sary to the support of a dense population — it is the very garden of the conti- 
nent But with all its resources and advantages, it labors under one very great 
and serious *• disadvantage," which, unless speedily removed, must at no dis- 
tant day bring to a termination its present prosperity and development. That 
drawback is the want of a speedy ^ cheap, direct and uninterrupted medium of 
water transportation to market of its vast and rapidly increasing agricultural 
products. 

It is true that we already have a connexion with Lake Michigan through 
some seven principal lines of railroads, to wit, at Burlington, Rock Island, Clin- 
ton, Savannah, Dubuque, Prairie duChien, and La Crosse, with several others 
in progress, which will be completed at no distant day. But, with all their 
power and facilities, these roads are proving to be utterly inadequate to the de- 
mands of the country. Not one of them, even now, cm remove to market, in 
good season, the produce of the country tributary to it. 

On this point the testimony contained in the report of the committee of the 
national ship canal convention held at Chicago June 2 and 3, 1863, is most 
important and conclusive. The committee say : 

** It is Dot to be supposed that Uic trunk lines of railway can accommodate tbis growing 
commerce. For the reai^ons, first, that it will not bear this expensive transit; second, that 
with their large passenger business and fast freight lines for the conveyance of merchaudiso 
and perishable articles, suchasfre^ih meats, vegetables, &c., constituting the daily food of the 
great cities, *^ihey combintd*^ could not convey eastward an additional million tons, and that, 
too, in view of an eastward-bound commerce through those channels, whose increase will, at 
an early day, reach the full limits of their capacity. These facts demonstrate the absolute 
necessity of additional outlets — cheap, commodious and expeditious-^or western commodities^ 
and productions, up to the point already attained, must cease." — (Proceedings of the National 
Ship Canal Convention, page 85.) 

It will be observed that the convention was discussing, in part, the capacity 
for transportation of these very seven principal lines of road between the lakes 
and Mississippi river. They are the identical ones, among others, which that 
convention, composed of the *mo3t talented, intelligent, and influential men of 
the nation, pronounces to be utterly inadequate to the wants of the country. 
Of what portion of the country is that convention speaking? Is it of some old, 
densely settled, and wealthy portion of the country? Not at all. It is of this 
very region which we call the "northwest" or "Upper Mississippi valley." 
This difficulty will not be removed by the construction of additional roads. 
Here are seven great trunk roads, complete, perfect, and efficient in all their 
parts, and yet the need of a water communication with Lake Michigan was 
never so great as at the present hour, and every year increases that necessity 
nearly a hundred-fold. In relation to this subject the convention on that oc- 
casion proceed to say : 

"To relieve the existing glut in transportation it has been proposed to construct additional 
railways. When railroads were first introduced, it was supposed that they would supersede 
canals, and that expeditious transport through, at increased cost, would counterbalance the 
cheapness of water communication. Experience, however, has shown that this supposition 
was fallacious, and the relative advantages of these two modes of transport are now fully 
understood; and, perhaps, there is no more striking example of this than in the State of 
New York, where the Central railroad and the Erie canal stretch coterminous through that 
State. The one is employed for the expeditious transportation of passengers, of perishable 
articles requiring immediate consumption, and of those to which an enhanced value lias been 
communicated by the industry of man ; the other for the crude and bulky articles, which, in 
the absence of canals, would yield to the producer little or no return. In the one case time 
becomes an element of value, for which the consumer is content to pay ; in the other, it Is 
matter of slight importance. 



NORTHWESTERN SHIP CANAL CONVENTION. 7 

"The committeo have already shown that, under the existinff rates of transportation, the 
ejcport of com is bounded by the western shore of Michigan; out with an improved water 
communication it would be extended to the furthest confines of settlement. Now, if the 
corn of the western farmer, when charged with freights through a water communication of 
twenty-five cents a bushel between Chicago and New York, yields him no profit ; if his 
wheat, charged also with twenty-seven cents a bushel, is excluded from the markets of the 
world, what relief is it to him to construct additional modes of conveyance on which the 
charges are 100 per cent, higher than by the existing routes." — {Same report j page 85.) 

As ixn illustration of the rapidly increasing agricultural productions of the 
Upper Mississippi valley, scores of examples might be given^-one, however, 
will be sufficient — four years ago the city of Red Wing, in the State of Min- 
nesota, situated west of the Mississippi river, and about 20 miles above Lake 
Pepin, depended entirely for their daily supply of fiour upon the mills of Iowa 
and other States on the Lower Mississippi, (mostly upon the city of Dubuque,) 
this year from the last season's crop alone (1863) that place sent to market more 
than 800,000 bushels of wheat, besides vast quantities of oats, barley, butter, &c. 
This is but a single illustration of scores of towns on the Upper Mississippi. 

The following tables, compiled from the Census Report for 1860, will show the 
progress of the States of Iowa, Wisconsin, and Minnesota and thereby more 
fully demonstrate the necessity of the proposed ^^ship canal"

Any one at all familiar with railroads and their capacity for transportation of 
heavy and bulky articles like agricultural produce will readily perceive that the 
present and prospective capacity of railroads bet wen the lakes and the Missis- 
sippi river in 1868 will be utterly incapable of transporting to market the crop 
of that year. The inevitable consequence must be, that the expansion and con- 
sequent prosperity of the Upper Mississippi valley must be very much dimin- 
ished, if it does not entirely cease, from the simple and single fact that the new- 
comers will have no means of transporting to market their agricultural produce. 
It needs no elaborate argument to prove this fact. It is obvious to the compre- 
hension of every reflecting mind. The heavy drain of the able-bodied men of the 
west to supply the armies of our country has not in the slightest degree dimin- 
B hed its productions in this valley, whatever may have been its effect in other 
portions of tho country, but, on the contrary, it has stimulated and increased them. 



NORTHWESTERN SHIP CANAL CONVENTION. 9 

The committee do not propose to go into an elaborate array of statistics to 
prove the necessity of a ship canal to the lakes. That labor has been performed 
by far more able bands. The report of the national ship-canal convention at- 
Chicago, in 1863, has most amply and fully supplied that much needed informa- 
tion. The array of facts and figures which that noble and patriotic body of men 
have brought together and collated leaves nothing more to be said on that sub- 
ject. Ours is a humble task. We propose to confine ourselves to the discussion 
of the advantages of a single route. Not more than one- twentieth of there- 
sources of the Upper Mississippi valley are developed at the present time, and 
yet she sends to market annually more than twenty million bushels of wheat, 
and other agricultural products in like proportion. In four years these will all be 
doubled, and what then ? Only this : unless some new medium of transporta- 
tion to market be devised and opened up by that time, expansion and conse- 
quent continued prosperity must cease, or nearly so. 

The question, then, is one of vast national importance, how can this necessity 
be supplied ? We answer, only by a shij> canal to the lakes. In the language 
of the preamble to the foregoing resolutions, we claim that that canal should and 
must be " by the nearest, cheapest, most expeditious, and niosi^ practicable route." 
A round-about way, as by the Illinois river, will never meet the demands and 
Necessities of the country. A route which will require the products of this valley 
tiot only to encounter the expense and perils of the rapids of the Mississippi, but. 
Over and above that, to travel from six hundred to one thousand miles to reach Lake 
Michigan, less than two hundred miles distant, will be of no account whatever; 
ixot one pound of freight, from this direction, will ever travel to the eastern market 
by such a route. Only the shortest and most direct route will be of any avail. 
Is there such a medium of intercommunication? If so, where? We assume that 
there is such a route of cheap construction, direct, feasible, and available at all 
iseasons of navigation, and which will be abundantly adequate to all the military, 
^aval, and commercial wants and necessities of the country for the next half 
century at least. Indeed, it is already in constant use and occupation by the 
commerce and enterprise of the country, and needs but small assistance from 
the general government to make it one of the most important and valuable routes 
in the whole country. That route is by the way of the Fox and Wisconsin 
rivers, through the interior of the State of Wisconsin. The Wisconsin for the 
last one hundred and fifteen miles of its course (or from old Fort Winnebago) to 
its mouth runs in a southwesterly direction, falling into the Mississippi river 
just below Prairie du Chien. in that part of its course it is from six to ten 
hundred feet wide, flowing, at medium stage of water, from two to two and a 
half miles per hour. At its lowest stage it has a channel from five to six feet 
deep, but in its present unimproved condition this channel is crooked, shifting, 
uncertain, and nearly impracticable for the navigation of heavy freight boats in 
low water. If confined, however, within proper limits, there is water enough to 
give from six and a half to seven feet in the channel at the lowest stages. This 
statement is made upon the authority of Colonel Cram, of the United States 
topographical engineers, who has carefully surveyed that river, and who is proba- 
bly better acquainted with its capacity than any other living man. Thirty years 
ago, when Colonel Cram was stationed at Fort Winnebago, that was one of the 
most important military posts in the whole Mississippi valley; not less than an 
entire regiment of infantry and nearly as many cavalry were always stationed 
there. The supplies for that post, including forage, had to be transported from 
St. Louis up the Mississippi and Wisconsin rivers. And yet, not in one single 
instance was the gamson stationed there ever straitened for supplies. Even in 
seasons of low water, light-draught boats could always reach the fort. The same 
is true of the lumbermen of the pineries of the Upper Wisconsin. For nearly 
twenty years after the commencement of the lumber business in that valley, the 
entire supplies of every description passed up the Wisconsin river in steamboats 



10 NORTHWESTERN SHIP CANAL CONVENTION. 

(often the largest class Mississippi steamers) to Portage, or Fort Winnebago, 
when they were hauled into the interior by teams. During all this time, or 
nearly so, Colonel Cram was stationed at that post. It was therefore a practical 
question with him, and a part of his duty as civil engineer of that military post, 
to examine and study carefully the capacities of the Wisconsin river for pur- 
poses of steamboat navigation. 

The Fox river rises in the southeastern portion of the State, and running north 
falls into Lake Winnebago, a sheet of water in the central portion of Wisconsin, 
about thirty miles long and ten miles wide, with an average depth of about twenty 
feet. 

At the Portage, in Columbia county, these two rivers approach within a 
mile of each other. The Fox river at the outlet of Swan lake (which is about 
three miles above the Portage) is about one hundred feet wide, two feet deep, 
and flowing at an average velocity of about one and a fourth miles per hour. 
This volume is rapidly increased by the accession of numerous tributaries before 
reaching Lake Paukwauke, in Marquette county. At the Portage a canal has 
been constructed by the State of Wisconsin of a capacity sufficient to pass 
steamers drawing five feet of water. 

This route has been subjected to several distinct and independent surveys; 
first by Colonel Cram, of the topographical engineers, his report being pub- 
lished in vol. 6, 26th Congress, Ist session. Senate Doc. No. 318. He has also 
given a brief synopsis of his surveys in a letter to Hon. Henry Wilson, chair- 
man Senate Committee on Military Affairs, published in 37th Congress, 3d ses- 
sion, Senate Doc. No. 14. This river has also been surveyed by Daniel C. 
Jenne, State engineer of the Fox river improvement. His report is published, 
December 18, 1862. It has also been surveyed by several other eminent and 
skilful engineers, but whose reports we have not been able to obtain. 

In speaking of this route as a military highway. Colonel Cram says : 

*' This route, from the timo La Salle explored Lake Michigan, has been a * military route* 
in every sense of that word. Within my own service I have seen large Mississippi boats, in 
times of *good water,' couiing up the Wisconsin to Fort Winnebago (now Portage City) to 
carry oflf a regiment of troops at a time ; and our government has from its earliest existence 
used it nil the way through for the truusnortation of troops and articles for the payment ol 
Indian annuities." — Letter to Senator fVuson^ page 2. 

It needs no additional proof, or any elaborate argument, to establish the fact 
that this has always been regarded and used as a " military route ;" indeed, as 
the only water communication between the lakes and the Mississippi river. A 
high and trusted officer of the government of forty years* standing in the military 
department, most of the time being stationed on that route, assumes that posi- 
tion. That assumption is confirmed by the whole history of the country. 

Mr. Jenne gives the following description of the entire route : 

'* The improvement of the Fox and Wisconsin rivers commences in the city of Green Bay, 
at the entrance of Fox river into Green^bay, an arm of Lake Michigan, and extends in a 
southwesterly direction to the Mississippi river, a short distance below the city of Prairie da 
Chieu. The entire length is 280 miles. From Green bay to Portage City, by the Fox river, 
]65 miles; thence to the Mississippi, by the Wisconsin river, ]15 miles." — Jennets report^ 
;862, page L

It is the unanimous testimony of all civil engineers that the distance on the 
Upper Fox (and probably on the Wisconsin also) can be shortened by cutting off 
several heavy bends so as to reduce the whole distance to about two hundred and 
fifty miles. 



12 NORTHWESTERN SHIP CANAL CONVENTION. 

Mr. Jenne further says : 

'*The improvements on the Lower Fox river consist of nine dams and eighteen locks and 
five miles of canal around the rapids. These locks are nearly completed, and are 160 feet 
long and 35 feet wide. Lake Winnebago is 170 feet above Lake Michiganf at Green Bay. 
The Fox river, from (ireen Bay to Lake W^innebago, averages about 600 feet in width, and 
has a minimum flow of about 100,000 cubic feet per minute. 

"The present improvements of this river (the Upper Fox) have been made by dredging 
and by constnictin^ wing dams and parallel piers. Two locks and dams haw also been 
projected." — Jenne s report ^ P^gc 4. 

The current is about the same as in the Erie canal. 
Mr. Jenne further says : 

'* On the Upper Fox, it will be necessary to build five locks and dams, dredge the channel 
at various points, and straighten many of the bends of the river." — /A., page 6. 

" The canal connecting the Fox and Wisconsin rivers is two miles in length, and has a lift- 
lock at the Fox river and a guard lock at the Wisconsin." — i&., page 5. 

From these and other authorities there does not appear to be the slightest 
difficulty in securing a navigable channel on the Fox river to the Portage, pro- 
vided there can be a sufficient supply of water during the dry season. 

On this subject Colonel Cram says : 

*'The first problem which I had to solve by surveys in the field referred to the question 
'quantity of water' for the Upper Fox. I found this to be ample, independent of sources 
other than those flowing naturally into it, to sustain a navigation in the tapper Fox of .six to 
seven feet, by some engineering. But when I found, by the levelling instrument, that the 
Wisconsin terminus of my proposed canal for connecting the two rivers was higher in times 
of low water by eighteen and a half inches than the terminus at the Fox, it was at once secR 
that the whole Upper Wisconsin could bo made a feeder to the Fox; all apprehension as to 
ample water for navigation of six or seven feet in the Fox was dispelled without resorting to 
extra engineering." — Letter to Senator WiUon^ page 3. 

Upon this point, i, c, the question of the improvement of these rivers, no 
insurmountable obstacle whatever will be encountered in the improvement of the 
navigation to any required capacity. This is the concurrent and unanimous 
testimony of every civil engineer who has examined the route. The improve- 
ments, tuo, will cost but a mere trifle when compared with the important results 
which will flow therefrom. The only difficulty, however, (if any,) which will 
be experienced in the whole route, will be in the Wisconsin river. This will 
arise from two causes : 

First, from the character of the bed of the river, which is of a sandy formation. 

Second, from a scarcity of water in the river in the dry seasons of the year. 

It is assumed by civil engineers, and the committee most emphatically indorse 
the position, that neither of the supposed difficulties exists in fact, and that all 
apprehension thereof will entirely disappear when carefully examined. The 
sands of this, as of all other rivers, have a tendeccy to create or cause a crooked 
channel and frequent bars, particularly in eddies or slack-water, very often 
flattening it out suddenly from several feet to a few inches. This peculiarity is 
comm')n to all, especially western rivers. This will be the great and almost 
the only difficulty in the way of the improvement of this river. Now, any one 
at all familiar with the laws of hydraulics can readily understand that sand-bars 
will be next to impossible in a straight channel, with a uniform depth and velocity 
of current. It is to secure these objects that the entire skill and experience of 
the civil engineer must be directed. Can this obstacle be overcome? It is 
believed that it can ; but how, is the question. Mr. Jenne has in part, but some- 
what imperfectly, described the mode of procedure. He says : 

**The Wisconsin river * * * "* is trom 500 to 1,000 feet wide, and has a current of 
two miles per hour. The bed of the stream is of a sandy formation, and in many places has 
great width. There is a channel, in all cases, from five to six feet in low water, [undoubt- 
edly he means where not flattened out,] but this being crooked where the water spretuls out,, 
it requires to be reduced in width by the means of * icing damst* when the river will makeit^^ 
Ofrn channel us it recedes from high to low water." — Jenne' s report page 5. 



NORTHWESTERN SHIP CANAL CONVENTIO.^. 13 

With defereDce to the eminent skill and, ability of that gentleman, it would 
eeem that the term " wing dam** is not a correct designation of the work, or else 
that the wrong system or work is proposed to be used. This term implies that 
the work or levee is placed at an angle to, not parallel with, the current. This 
arrangement of the works will certainly increase the velocity of the current 
between the dams, and, as a necessary consequence, an eddy, or comparative 
eddy, below. This will inevitably create a bar in the still or slow water, which 
is just what is now being done in its natural state by the crooked and shifting 
current. 

** Parallel levees ** are the proper and probably the only means whereby the 
navigation of the Wisconsin can be permanently improved. This hypothesis is 
confirmed by many examples in the present condition of the river. Where the 
waters are all gathered into a single straight channel (as at the town of Rich- 
land, in Richland county) of three or four hundred feet in width, it invariably 
has a nearly uniform depth, unobstinicted by bars. These levees will not be 
needed all the way, but only in those places where the river has spread out over 
a great surface ; for it is here only that navigation will be obstructed at even 
the lowest stages of water. Whether this or Xf r. Jenne's be the correct descrip- 
tion, the object to be attained is the same, i. «•., to secure a straight channel, 
narrow river bed, and a uniformity of width and velocity of current. 

In speaking of this system of improvement, Col. Cram says: 

**In mj professional examination of the Lower Wisconsin nt several points 1 found a 
i*)emarkable unifoniiity in its currents. # # # ^pj^^ ^\bii of requiring no 

Cross dams in this river is worthy of consideration; and the success of the tcing or hide tmms 
MiiU. depend upon their form, location, and the material and care with which they may be 
^ionstnicted. In the Chinese rivers, if we are to believe the Jesuit travellers who have 
>rritten on their improvements, such as proposed for the Lower Wisconsin by Mr. Jenno 
bave been successful. 

** Mr. Jenne has constructed similar ones on the Upper Fox, which, I am credibly informed, 
liave proved highly successful ; and his experience there has probably led him to reconsmond 
liis method for improving the Wisconsin." — Letter to Senator fl'tlson^ P^ff^ 4. 

A similar plan was adopted by the general government more than twenty- 
five years since, in the improvement of the Hudson river, both above and below 
Albany, with the most perfect success. The best sugar and cotton lands of the 
Lower Mississippi river are reclaimed by similar levees, whereby the waters of 
the "great river" are controlled, and compelled to keep within its prescribed 
bounds. If these "wing dams,*' or "parallel levees," are constructed of rock, 
(of which there is an ^abundance, within short distances, the whole length of the 
river,) the drifting sands will fill in among them, so that in a very short time 
these levees will become as solid and durable as the most substantial masonry. 
Thi8 is peculiarly the case on the Wisconsin, as the experience of the railroads, 
in building their bridges across that river, has most abundantly demonstrated. 
Fascines, or bundles of willow, may, and probably should, underlie these levees 
to prevent them from sinking into the sand. It is claimed that by this means the 
river will cut a straight, clean channel the entire length of the dams or levees. 
Such has been the result wherever the plan has been adopted, both in this and 
other countries. Besides, there are a great many islands in this river, which cut 
Up and divide its waters into many small and shallow channels. By skilful 
engineering, and with the assistance of these islands and the " parallel levees," 
the waters can all be turned int© one channel at very little expense. This is 
the experience and testimony of all engineers, and boatmen, acquainted with this 
river. They all say, "let the river be confined to a single narrow channel, and 
there will never be any lack of water for all purposes of navigation." 

By adopting a system of improvement for the whole route, thus briefly and 
imperfectly set forth, Colonel Cram makes the following estimates of expense. 
Mr. Jenne's figures are much less.

give 6 to 6 J feet in the channel at the lowest stage of water. . $315, 000

The objection to the permanent improvement of the navigation of the Wis- 
consin river, in consequence of the want of water, is much stronger than against 
the Fox, and is, perhaps, quite serious. Some steamboatmen and engineers 
believe it impracticable, from that cause alone. If the objection be a valid one, 
then there is an end of the proposed improvement by means of " wing dams,*' 
or "parallel levees." In that event, the only method of improvement will be by 
a canal. There are no definite reports or estimates of engineers, that have come 
to our knowledge, which give the exact or an estimated volume of water in that 
river ; nor has there ever been any survey or examination with reference to that 
particular question. The only information on that subject is the partial and im- 
perfect examination and estimates of Colonel Cram. In absence of all such 
statistics, an approximation may be arrived at with a considerable degree of ac- 
curacy. Mr. Anderson, of Green Bay, who is a civil engineer, and for a long 
time engaged as such on the Fox river improvements, says " that the Wisconsin, 
at the Dells, (about 25 miles above the Portage,) is about 100 feet wide, 20 feet 
deep at the lowest stage of water, and flows at the rate of 10 miles per hour." 
It will be understood that the entire volume of water in the river is compressed 
into these limits. This will give a volume of about 105,600,000 cubic feet 
per hour, or about 1,760,000 cubic feet per minute. In water flowing at the rate 
of two miles per hour, this volume will give a channel 200 feet wide and 7 feet 
deep at the very lowest estimate. This volume confined in a straight, narrow 
channel, as is proposed by the contemplated improvements, will be sufficient for 
all navigable purposes on that river. There is another source of supply not 
generally enjoyed by p»irtially navigable rivers — indeed by none other on this 
continent — but which is a peculiar topographical feature of this valley — that is, 
by means of lake reservoirs, toward the headwaters. The opinion of Colonel 
Cram, whose long experience, intimate acquaintance, and practical skill in the 
navigation of that river, make him a most competent and reliable authority, 
- ought to be conclusive on this subject. He says : 

"Since the period of my topographical surveys, public land surveys have been extended 
. up the valley of the Wisconsin, to include Lac Vieux Desert, giving us all desirable know- 
ledge in regard to the supply of water that may be counted upon to feed the navigation of 
the Lower Wisconsin as well as the Upper Fox. lam now satisfied^ from Mreful investigation 
of this question^ that with proper engineering the Lower Wisconsin can be improved so as tb 
nmintain a navigable depth of six to seven feet, as well as the Upper Fox, whenever the mili- 
tHiy defetice of the iako country or commerce of the northwest shall require it." — Letter to 
Senator migon, page 3. 



NORTHWESTERN SHIP CANAL CONVENTION. 15 

It is very much to be regretted that he did not go more into detail on this 
subject, as his intimate and thorough acquaintance with the valley of the Upper 
Wisconsin would give his statements and estimates great weight and authority. 
That omission, however, can be in part supplied from the late surveys of the 
public lands. By those surveys it is established that the lake area in that valley 
is of very great extent, probably very much exceeding 500 square mile?, with a 
capacity of being raised, by skilful engineering, 10 feet if necessary, upon an 
average, above the present level. Some of those lakes can be raised 30 feet. 
Assuming, however, 10 feet to be the average capacity of those hikes, this will 
create a reservoir of water, for the uses of navigation in the dry season of the year, 
of more than 1,400,920,000,000 cubic feet, or about 516,308,703,707 cubic yards. 
It will require no great amount of skill in numerical computation to prove that 
this immense and almost incomprehensible amount of reserve water will keep 
navigation up to the standard assumed by Colonel Cram, and at the same time 
allow a large margin for wastage, evaporation, &c. It is believed that this v/ork 
can be accomplished at a comparatively small expense. The extra allowance 
of 50 per cent, upon the estimate cost of the whole work will pay this as 
well as the other extra expenses. It is the unanimous testimony of all govern- 
ment surveyors, who have done work in the valley of the Wisconsin river, that 
a very large proportion of its upper valley is made up of lakes. In some por 
tions quite two-thirds of the whole area is of that character. These lakes are 
generally surrounded by a high rolling conntr}^ and 6onnected by deep, narrow 
channels, forming a continuous chain of lakes, covering a large portion of the 
^hole country. James McBride, esq., a resident of this place and a govem- 
«Hent snveyor, who has just returned from tlie valley of the Tomahawk river, 
One of the principal tributaries of the Wisconsin, where he has been engaged 
<luring the past season in government surveys, says, " that the lakeage of that 
Valley alone will exceed five hundred square miles." These lakes are continuous 
for a great extent, the intervening lands being high and rolling. A single 
clam, located at an eligible point, will raise the water in all of them. A very 
lew dams, of cheap construction, will be sufficient to raise the water in vast areas 
of lakes. No damage will accrue to the adjacent lands by the overflow. Indeed, 
in some portions of the country the raising the water in the lakes, from 6 to 10 
feet, will be of very great importance, from the fact that it will make accessible 
vast tracts of pine and other valuable timber lands, which otherwise could not 
be made available. This overflow will also so connect all of them, that a vast 
extent of navigable water will be created, thereby developing that whole region 
of country, which otherwise cannot be reached. A vast water power will also 
be thus created, which will be of very great value and importance in the de- 
velopment, growth, prosperity, and industry of the country. There are other 
tributaries of the Wisconsin, as well as the main river, along which there are 
equal, and probably greater, areas of lake. Probably one-third at least of the 
whole upper valley is lake, equally favorable for being uSed for reservoirs to sup- 
ply water for navigation purposes in dry seasons. 

We do not assume that the above estimates of the lake capacity of the valley 

of the Upper Wisconsin are exactly correct or to be relied upon entirely, in 

estimating the cost or practicability of the whole or any part of the contemplated 

Work ; but that in absence of specific surveys, and estimates in relation to the 

amount of water flowing in the Wisconsin, and the facilities of creating artificial 

reservoirs, we are obliged to resort to these approximate methods of estimating the 

amoupt of each. From the meagre and imperfect information on this subject, 

to which the committee have had access, they are unanimously and firmly of the 

Opinion that this is the only feasible and practicable route for a " ship canal " 

from the lake* to the upper valley of the Mississippi river ; especially is that the 

case when the expense of the work is taken into consideration. The convention 

was most strongly impressed with the entire want of all correct and reliable in-

formation, based upou accurate surveys, in relation to this whole subject. It 
therefore unanimously passed the following resolution, which, although included 
in the foregcjing series, the committee venture to repeat in this connexion : 

** Rnolvfil, That ihe coramfttee be inFtrncte ) to leqiust the KenAtm-K Hiid membeis of the 
Houtte of KeprebcntativeH of the States of Ljwh. «iiiihodota. Hn*i WiscoriHin, at Washington, 
to act in concert with tath other to obtain nn lippropiiatiun ftoiu ( on^trcKS ftr the Burrcy 
of the Fox and Witconsin rivein, with a view ol inakibg it a gbip canal route, and that »aid 
survey be made under instructions of the Stcrctaries of War and the Navy." 

This resolution was suggested from the fact that there has never been a sur- 
vey of this route with reference to making it a ship canal between the lakes and 
the Mississippi river. The convention, therefore, deemed it of very great im- 
portance to a correct knowledge of the subject, as well as to the success of the 
enterprise, that there should be a general examination and survey of the whole 
route, under the direction and supervision of the general government. Indeed 
such a survey is indispensable, not only to an intelligent understanding of the 
whole subject, but also to the successful prosecution of the enterprise. No work 
of that description and magnitude can be prosecuted in any of its parts without 
such survey. The committee, on behalf of the people of the Upper Mississippi 
valley, and of the whole country, would, therefore, most respectfully but earn- 
estly pray that an appropriation for that purpose may be made at the present 
session of Congress, and that the survey be prosecuted during the coming sum- 
mer, 80 as to be reported at the commencement of the next session. 

But however this great work may be regarded as a commercial necessity, 
there is one aspect of the case which we cannot ignore. The whole country is 
inquiring with a great deal of interept as to the best and most secure position for 
a navy yard on the lakes. Well may the people feel and express great solici- 
tude on this subject, because it is one of vast practical importance. Events 
are daily transpiring along our whole lake frontier which are eminently calcu- 
lated to excite deep solicitude in every part of the country, and which also 
demand of the government the most prompt and decided, and at the same time 
calm and deliberate, consideration. The necessities of the times and the critical 
condition of our foreign relations would seem to demand that the lakes shall not 
any longer remain without the means of protection and defence in case of an 
emergency. There must be a large increase in our naval force on those waters. 
That, of course, nece8i*itates the establishment of one or more navy yards at 
some safe and eligible position. Wkere that shall be is a question of no small 
interest and importance. There is, probably, no such safe and secure position, 
unassailable by a naval power, below the straits of Mackinaw, either in Lake 
Huron or Eric. The location, therefore, must be confined to Lake Michigan or 
some adjacent body of water. If this be so, it is a matter of some importance 
to ascertain where is the safest and most eligible position. 

The merits and advantages of several points have been discussed in the pub- 
lic journals, such as Green Bay, Sturgeon's Bay, Chicago, and other places. 
All of them possess some of the requisites and advantages necessary to the eli- 
gible location of a navy yard. But there are countervailing objections to each 
of them. Perhaps we should say that if there is a safer and more desirable lo- 
cation, combining in itself the respective advantages of each, that place should, 
by all means, be selected. In the opinion of the committee there is but one 
location in the whole range of the lake region which fills up the full measure of 
what is needed for that purpose. That place is Lake Winnebago. This posi- 
tion is, or can at very small expense be made, absolutely impregnable With a 
probable expenditure of a million of dollars in fortifications, together with its 
naturally strong and isolated position, it can defy the combined naval power of 
the world. As before stated, this sheet of water is situated about ^hy miles from 
Lake Michigan ; is connected with the former at Green Bay, through the ** Lower 
yox rirer,*^ It is about thirty miles long, U^n miles wide, and averages about 



NORTHWESTERN SHIP CANAL CONVENTION. 17 

twenty-five feet deep. It is surrounded by one of the most beautiful, salu- 
brious, fertile, and productive regions of country west of the great lakee; with 
vast forests of oak, pine, and other timber, within easy, practicable, and navi- 
gable distances on all sides, sufficient for the naval demands of the country for 
die next half century at least. The Lower Fox is already so far improved as 
to allow of the free passage to and from Lake Michigan of gunboats about 160 
feet long, 35 feet beam, and, when loaded with their armament, drawing from 12 
to 14 feet of water. By a comparatively small outlay this river can be im- 
proved to a capacity sufficient for the largest class of gunboats or propellers 
which will ever be needed on the lakes. Is not this just the point required and 
demanded for a navy yard ? From this lake to the Mississippi river, by the 
way of the Upper Fox and Wisconsin rivers, a ship canal can be opened, or 
rather those rivers improved, at an expense not much, if any, exceeding half a 
million < f dollars, through which the gunboats of the government can be floated 
to any part of the Mississippi valley and even to the Gulf This is already a 
navigable route, b nng constantly used for steamboat navigation, and only needs 
improving to make it sufficient to float the largest gunboats which will ever be 
needed on the Mississippi or any of its tributaries. Material of every descrip- 
tion for the construction and armament of gunboats can be found in the vicinity 
or carried into the lake by short and cheap water communication. The iron of 
Lake Superior, the coal of the Mississippi valley and Pennsylvania and Ohio, 
the pine of the Wisconsin and Wolf rivers, the oak and other hard wood tim- 
ber of the immediate vicinity, and the beef, pork, flour, and other productions 
of the entire west, can be brought together and stored there for the supply of the 
navy and armies of the United States more expeditiously, securely, and cheaply 
than at any other point in the whole country. These are elements and advan- 
tages not slightly to be regarded in the selection of a point for a navy yard. 
1'his lake is also of sufficient extent and magnitude to prove all steamers on trial 
trips and for all other purposes. The location of the navy yard on the shores 
of this lake will obviate the necessity and expense of erecting costly fortifica- 
tions aL)ng other portions of the lake frontier, as at Mackinaw, Detroit, and 
other points. The mastery of the lakes must depend upon the gunboats, and 
not upon the local defences of particular places. This lake and the routes di- 
verging from it will always be open whenever there can be navigation in any 
other portion of the lakes. There is no other place on the whole lake frontier 
which may not be reached by heavy ordnance from the lakes. One, and at 
most two forts, guarding the approaches to Green Bay, will be a sufficient pro- 
tection against any efibrts an enemy can possibly make. Railroads are already 
radiating from this lake to Marquette, on Lake Superior, Sheboygan, Milwaukie, 
Racine, Chicago, and many other places on Lakes Michigan and Superior, and 
also to many points on the Missispippi river. There is an abundance of rock, clay, 
and other building material in the immediate vicinity of any point on the lake. 
There is also an abundance of water-power for the propelling of machinery just 
at the foot of the lake. Here may be stored in perfect safety ship- timber and 
other material to supply the entire internal navy of the country, all of which can 
be gathered from the immediate vicinity. These are some of the advantages of 
this location, and which, in the opinion of this committee, ought to determine 
the site for the lake navy yard. 

Thus far we have discussed the merits and facilities of the route to the lakes, 
but the improvement of the navigation of the Mississippi river is of equal import- 
ance, not only to the upper valley of that river, but also to the whole country. 
The only serious obstruction to tJie navigation on tkis route is by the upper and 
lower rapids. These obstructions are so well known throughout the country 
that an attempt at a minute and detailed description here will be unneceFsary, 
indeed entirely out of place. Congress has made several appropriations for the 
purpose of surveys, drawings, work, &c., but thus far very little, if any, peima-

18 NORTHWESTERN SHIP CANAL CONVENTION. 

nent good Las been accomplished, beyond the information gained of the obstruc- 
tions. In the opinion of many of the best and most experienced engineers of 
the country the policy thus far pursued, and the improvements made, are of 
very little account ; indeed, some go so far as to apsumc that they are worse 
than useless. While the committee do not participate in these extreme views, 
we are nevertheless firmly impressed with the conviction that quite large 
amounts of the public treasure have been very injudiciously expended there. 
In discussing these improvements, Colonel Cram says : 

*• Work under the design of improviDg these chains of rapids by a most inutile plan of 
engineenng has been lingering along for the last thirty years in f-pusojodic tfforts at blnht- 
ing out the rocks in the channels, to very little if uny benefit. I very much doubt if any 
plan of improvement will ever accomplish the desired object. It U a plan, if pei8-;vered in to 
the end, that must ir^jure the natural navigation somewhere above the rapi<ls. The only true 
mode, in my estimation, is to 'lock and canal around the roptda.' 'i his plan has mobt successfully 
succeeded at Niagara, at Louisville, on the Ohio, on the Green and Kentucky rivers, on tlie 
Monongahela, and others in our country. I am of the opinion that $1,500 000 would 
lock and canal both chains on the Mississippi, giving a depth of six and a half fret draught, 
of ample width and length of locks and width of Crinals. And we should thus have an im- 
provement t>anctioned by experience and divested of those circumstances which in the plan 
heretufore persisted in would injure the navigation above in times of low water, where the 
navigation most needs improvement." — Xjttter to Senator Wilson, pages 5 and 6. 

Little can or need be said in addition to this clear, explicit and unanswerable 
testimony of Colonel Cram in condemnation of the inutile and impracticable 
policy so long persisted in for the ostensible improvement of these rapids. 
Even if the channel be enlarged and deepened as is contemplated by that sys- 
tem, it will in a great measure be valueless as a part of the navigation of that 
great river, because of the great and almost irresistible velocity of the current, 
which is, in many places, about ten miles per hour, and averaging about seven 
miles. This velocity must necessarily be very much increased by the removal 
of those obstructions, which now not only impede navigation, but also check the 
velocity of the water in the channel. It cannot be denied, however, that the 
plan of improvement by means of blasting out the channel has many and power- 
ful advocates, who, from their intimate and practical acquaintance with the 
character and location of the obstructions, are claimed to be the most competent 
and reliable judges. Still there are certain physical characteristics in those 
rapids which it is important to take into consideration in judging between the 
two methods. One of those characteristics is the almost irresistible velocity of 
the current in some portions of the rapids, and which can never be overcome or 
reduced by any system of improvements that can be desired. Cross-dams are 
entirely out of the question. The friends, however, of the latter mode of im- 
provement claim that the velocity of the current on the rapids, when thus 
improved, will not exceed five miles the hour. This they must do in order to 
maintain their position ; for the strongest advocates of that mode of improve- 
ment admit that if the current much exceeds that velocity, their plan will be 
impracticable, or nearly so. The opponents of that system assume that the 
current will, at the minimum stage of water, very much exceed that velocity. 
The length of the lower rapids is ten and one-half miles, with a fall of twenty- 
one feet, or about two feet to the mile. This, however, is not uniform. In some 
§ laces the fall exceeds six feet to the mile, causing almost a cataract. It is not 
enied, nor can it be successfully, that by the removal of the obstructions so as 
to make a channel, for example, 200 feet wide, and seven feet deep, the velocity 
of the cun*ent will be very much increased. It is proper here to inquire what 
is the ratio between the descent of the bed of the river and the velocity of the 
current. In the Mississippi, outside of the rapids, the descent of the bed isabout^ 
six inches to the mile, and the minimum velocity of the current two and a hal£ 
miles per hour. In the bed of the Missouri river there is a descent of about tew 
JBchea to the mile, with a minimum velocity of the current of about four mile9 



NORTHWESTERN SHIP CANAL CONVENTION. 19 

the hour. This is about the ratio in all rivers of the magnitude of these two. 
Can or do the advocates of this mode of improvement claim that those rapids 
are an exception to this general rule ? If, then, six inches fall in the bed of the 
stream will give a velocity to the current of two and a half miles to the hour, 
what will six feet give] Here is a problem which they must solve. It may 
be, and in fact is claimed, that the re-flow, or back-wiiter, at the foot of the rapids, 
will overcome this increased velocity; on the lower rapids this re-flow is llf 
feet at high water, and on the upper rapids 12 feet. This, however, is at high 
water, when the rapids are no impediment except in the velocity of the current. 
At low water the re-flow does not amount to anything. Besides, the greatest 
fall, and, consequently, the swiftest water, is far above the reach of the back-water 
at the foot. It is admitted that, in the present unimproved condition of those 
rapids, the velocity of the current in many places is five miles the hour in low 
water, and seven miles in high water. Now, let those obstructions be removed, 
cut a clear channel, for example, 200 feet wide and seven feet deep, and will not 
the velocity be increased from one-third to one-half? This will be a moderate 
estimate. We have then a trough, or straight chute, 200 feet wide, seven feet 
deep, with a descent of six feet per mile, with the whole current of the river rush- 
ing through it ; and yet it is claimed that the velocity of that current will not 
exceed five miles the hour in low water. If that be so, some other rule or prin- 
ciple of hydrostatics must operate there not in force in other parts of the river. 
The fact is, the velocity of the current at those places will reach nearer fifteen 
miles the hour than it will fall short of ten. It will be safe to estimate that there 
will be a current of from seven to ten miles per hour to be overcome in naviga- 
ting those rapids in all stages of water. This surely will not very much improve 
the iafciy of the navigation for boats and their barges heavily loaded, as they 
must necessarily be, with produce. To bo of any particular advantage to this 
vast agricultural country, the improvement must afford a mfe as well as a prac- 
ticable transit of those rapids. 

It will not be contended that such will be the case with that velocity of cur- 
rent. This reasoning applies to the lower rapids ; the same is true also of the 
Qpper rapids. The distance over them is thirteen miles, with a fall of twenty- 
two feet. Like the lower rapids, the fall is not unij^rm. In some places, as at 
several of the chains, it exceeds four feet to the ' mile. At these places the 
channel is very crooked, with abrupt angles. If the improvements follow the 
channel (as they must) navigation can never bo made safe, because the velocity 
of the current will always be liable to drive heavily laden boats on to those 
«hort turns or angles and wreck them. This will be very liable to happen if 
4ny considerable degree of wind prevails at the time. In short, that species of 
Unprovement will never make the navigation iqt/ir, or comparatively so, nor 
obviate the necessity of transshipping into barges in passing them. This expense 
^one of this transshipment will render the improvement worthless as a highway 
^or carrying off the produce of the country lying above them. The entire 
country, and especially the west, ought at once most distinctly, unequivocally, 
and emphatically to protest against the further prosecution of that inutile and 
"Worthless policy. Nothing but a ship canal across those rapids can ever make 
« safe and permanent improvement, adequate to the wants and demands of the 
commerce and military operations of the country. 

The estimated cost of those canals by Colonel Cram appears rather high ; still, 
it is far better to be too high than too low. But even that amount is a mere 
^fle when compared with the immense results which are sure to follow. A very 
hu^ amount of the produce of the Upper Mississippi valley must necessarily go 
south to supply the demands of the southern States, Cuba, and other southern 
markets. The present precarious and expensive navigation of the Mississippi, 
over those rapids, is an enormous tax upon the agricultural industry and wealth 
of this valley, which, by a comparatively small outlay by the government, in a 



20 NORTHWESTERN SHIP CANAL CONVENTION. 

judicious and enlarged system of canalling around those rapids, will almost 
entirely remove that burden from the new and fertile States of the west. It is 
obvious that an increased export of agricultural products in that direction will 
not, in the slightest degree, diminish the amount going east ; because, with the 
increased facilities of transportation to market, the business of the country will 
be increased in a much greater ratio. This will surely be the case where, in a 
country like this valley, so small a proportion of its natural resources are de- 
veloped. 

Thus far the committee has confined its discussion of these great national 
measures more to their practicability and feasibility than to either their com- 
mercial or military aspects, not because they are paramount, but because the 
country is less familiar with their details than with their general aspects. Every 
person in the whole country can at once comprehend and appreciate the necessity 
of some general system of water communication between the eastern seaboard 
and the Mississippi river, as a means of military, naval, and commercial inter- 
communication; but very few understand or can appreciate the difficulties and 
expenses of such an enterprise, or the superior advantages and greater facilities 
of one route over others, without a minute and detailed description of those ad- 
vantages. There is one view of this subject which deserves, and doubtless will 
receive, particular consideration over and above any and all other routes, L e.j 
all the proposed improvements are along a line which, from the very earliest 
history of the continent, has been recognized and used as a military highway, 
and which by no posjibility can be entirely superseded by any other. The 
supposition that the Mississippi river can ever be superseded by any other me- 
dium of communication, not only for commerce, but also as a military highway, 
is a simple absurdity. The same is true of the Wisconsin and Fox river route, 
perhaps, however, in a less general sense ; but still it will always be used by the 
government as a means of transportation more or less connected with military 
affairs. Prior to the era of the steamboat and railroad that was the only route 
for military transportation betweeu the lakes and the Upper Mississippi river. 
Even now it is very often used for that purpose. In good stages of water the 
largest Mississippi steamers running to St. Paul can as readily run up the Wis- 
consin to Portage City as to the former place, and do so whenever there is 
business to call them there. So on the Fox river, There are regular lines of 
boats plying on that route from the same point (Portage City) to Green Bay. 
These boats come through the canal at Portage, and carry off nearly all the 
produce of the Wisconsin valley, successfully competing with the railroads in 
that trade; indeed having nearly driven them out of the market in the transport- 
ation of agricultural produce. Many, indeed most, of these boats plying on 
those rivers were built at Pittsburg, and run from thence down the Ohio, np the 
Mississippi and Wisconsin rivers, through the canal at the Portage ifito the Fox 
river, and placed in the trade between the Portage and the latter place. It is 
also a very common practice for these boats to run either in the Mississippi or 
Wisconsin and Fox river trade, as the business may fluctuate between the two 
routes. In extreme low water, as in the past summer, boats that could run from 
the head of Lake Pepin to St. Paul could with equal facility and success run on 
the Wisconsin, thence through the canal, down the Fox to Green Bay. In several 
instances, boats having run on the Fox river trade during the summer, go into 
the trade on the Lower Mississippi during the winter. Generally, however, those 
boats run on the Ohio or other tributaries of the Mississippi. 

The question may arise, if the Wisconsin, during low water, is so nearly equal 
to the Mississippi in point of navigation, where is the necessity for so heavy an 
outlay in its improvement? There are several reasons for this. 

Ist. The object of the improvement is to make it a part of a ship-canal route 
between the lakes and the Mississippi river, with a permanent channel of at least 
^even feet. Were the Mississippi in place of the Wisconiin, it would need im- 



NORTHWESTERN SHIP CANAL CONVENTION. 21 

proTement to accomplish that purpose, although not to so great an extent as the 
latter, from the fact that its hed is not obstracted to the same extent with sand- 
bars. 

2d. For three months in the year there u an abundance of water in this river 
for all purposes of navigation, but for the balance of the season the sand bars 
will more or less obstruct and impede navigation, always so much that it cannot 
be relied on to establish a permanent trade of the magnitude and importance of 
that demanded by the necessities of the country. To effect that object these 
bare must in some mariner be removed or overcome. 

3d. In the event of such a ship-canal route being constructed between the 
waters of the Mississippi and the lakes, barges will be used in the transportation 
of produce, especially grain ; for that purpose there must be a clear, uninter- 
rapted and peimanent channel of at least seven feet depth all the way. This 
cannot be secured without the contemplated improvement. 

4th. The immense pine and hard- wood forests, not only along the route, but 
in the whole Upper Mississippi valley, are and ever will be needed by the gov- 
ernment for its navy. These national resources cannot be made available at the 
time and place they may be needed without these improvements. 

5tb. The beef, pork, and flour of that productive and fertile region will ever 
be in demand to provision the armies and navies of the United States. 

The munitions of war in passing between the lake and the Mississippi water** 
most, to some extent at least, pass that way even although the Wisconsin should 
not be improved. And should the time ever come when the country becomes 
involved in a foreign war, which involves the necessity of defensive as well as 
offensive operations on our northern frontier, armies and their immense trains 
and munitions must depend in a great measure for their means of transportation 
upon that route. The same reasons and the same necessity apply with equal 
force in relation to the proposed canal around Niagara falls. 

Although it did not enter into the plan of the late convention to discuss that 
question, or to take any action on that subject, still, as a great national measure, 
the committee could not refrain frum mentioning the subject in discussing the 
merits of the western portion of that great national thoroughfare. It is certainly 
not good policy for' a great and powerful government like ours to allow the only 
water communication between the upper lakes and Lake Ontario and the liver 
St. Lawrence to be held by a foreign and rival power — a power, too, which may 
at almost any moment beconie a hostile one, in the complications and jostlings 
of the mighty events which are shaking the world from all its old foundations. 
The west should rise up as one man and demand that this state of things shall 
no longer exist — that whilst their sons, from every prairie and valley watered 
and fertilized by the gathering waters of the " great river," are rushing to the front, 
like a wild and irresistible tornado, to beat back and break in pieces the serried 
ranks of the enemies of our country, an enemy may at any moment spring upon 
our path, and be allowed to come in through an u!iprotected frontier to desolate 
their homes with fire and sword. The west is reeling and staggering under the 
weight of the enormous load which the exigencies of war and the insatiable de- 
mands of the merchant, manufacturer, and capitalist have laid upon its shoulders. 
Whilst, therefore, it bears up bravely and with a stout heart under the load, let 
it demand, in the name of justice and fair dealing, that a portion of the immense 
wealth which is pouring into eastern coffers from the fertile fields and willing 
hands of the west shall be returned to her in the shape of improvements in the 
great western thoroughfares of the nation. Whilst the eastern merchant, man- 
ufacturer, banker, and business men generally are amassing colossal fortunes out 
of the war, the west is poor. As things are at present arranged it costs about 
two bushels of* wheat in every three to get the third to market. The great 
transportation lines to the east have so arranged matters among themselves that 
there is allowed to the miller only about ten cents profit on the barrel of flour 



22 NORTHWESTERN SHIP CANAL CONVENTION. 

between the Mississippi river and New York. Everything else in the shape of 
profits goes into the insatiable maw of the transportation companies and monop- 
oh'sts. The west cannot long remain prosperous under such a state of things. 
The cost of the improvements so imperatively demanded by the necessities of 
the west are a mere trifle when compared with the immense advantages which 
will result therefrom. Here they are : 

For canalling around the upper and lower rapids of the Missis- 
sippi river $4, 500, 000 

Ship canal through the Wisconsin and Fox rivers 3, 580, 000 

Total 8, 080, 000 



There are many and strong ties existing between the east and the west, and 
the two sections ought to have a common interest. That community of interests 
may exist at the present time, and in their present inequality the interests may 
remain ; but a cordiality of feeling for any great length of time is entirely out 
of the question, unless we may suppose that cordiality between a superior and 
inferior, who have and ought to enjoy only equal rights, may exist and remain 
strong and vigorous for years. In conclusion, tne committee would most respect- 
fully submit ihe foregoing considerations to the enlightened wisdom and patriotic 
purposes of Congress, hoping and believing that they will receive that attention 
and consideration which their great national importance demands. 

To Hon. Wm. J. Gilchrist, McGregor; Messrs. Piatt Smith, George W. Jones, 
and B. B. Richards, of Dubuque, Iowa ; Messrs. L. W. Barden, Portage City ; 
M. M. Davis, Appleton; D. W. Brisbois, Prairie du Chieu; Charles Kallecz, 
Sauk City, Wisconsin ; and D. W. IngersoU, esq., St. Paul, Minnesota, exe- 
cutive committee of the northwestern ship canal convention, held at the city 
of Dubuque, May 4, 18G4: 

Gbntlbmen: In compliance with your request, I have prepared and now 
submit the foregoing report for your consideration. In doing so, I cannot for- 
bear to express my inability to do justice to the several subjects of inquiry 
submitted for your consideration by resolution of the convention. This arises, 
in part, from the great number and intricate character of the subjects involved 
in the inquiry, but more especially from the very meagre and limited informa- 
tion on many of the subjects involved. This is more especially the case in rela- 
tion to the Wisconsin river. Aside from the limited information derivable from 
the report of Colonel Cram, there is no authentic information whatever on that 
subject. There appears to be no doubt in the minds of those best acquainted 
with that stream that there is a sufficient volume of water for purposes of navi- 
gation ; but the important and only difficult inquiry is, whether it can be so con- 
fined in a single channel as to make it available. 

That problem can only be solved by an actual survey, with direct reference 
to that particular inquiry. This is true also in relation to the lake capacity of 
the Upper Wisconsin valley for reservoirs. So of many other, indeed, of all the 
questions involved in the problem of a ship canal from the lakes to the Missis- 
sippi river. There can be no satisfactory and reliable solution to any of them, 
except by an actual survey and report. I am confident, however, that the 
general facts stated, and the deductions therefrom, are strictly correct, and will 
be sustained by actual surveys. When I commenced the investigation of this 
problem (that is, of a ship canal from the lakes to the Mississippi river,) I very 
much doubted whether the objects and purposes sought to be secured were fea- 
sible, or even practicable, except by the construction of an actual and regular 
canal the entire distance. I am now thoroughly convinced that from Green 



NORTHWESTERN SHIP CANAL CONVENTION. 23 

Bay to the Portage the Fox river can be permanently improved to any capacity 
that the wants and necessities of the country may require; and that, too, at 
very email expense, not to exceed the estimates in the report. There is one 
Tery remarkable and favorable feature in that stream. From the Portage to 
Lake Winnebago it hag a very moderate current, not much, if any, exceeding 
that of the Erie canal. To build a canal alongside of that part of the river 
would simply be to dig a new canal alongside of one already nearly completed 
by nature. From the foot of the lake to Green Bay the question has already 
been solved. The only inquiry that can possibly arise is, " What amount of 
funds will be necessary to enlarge the worK to the required capacity V* So of 
the canal at the Portage. It is not whether a canal can be built, but what 
amount of money will be necessary to enlarge the one already constructed and 
in full and successful operation. The only question that can excite any doubt 
or uncertainty is as to the Wisconsin river. Here there are two very serious 
questions : First. Can the bed of that river be permanently straightened, con- 
tracted, and otherwise improved so as to make it navigable? ISecond. Can 
there be created lake reservoirs on the Upper Wisconsin sufficient to supply 
deficiencies of water in the dry seasons? On these questions there is no 
authentic information sufficient to base any specific action. If these two in- 

aniries can be solved in the affirmative, then the problem of a ship canal from 
]e lakes to the Mississippi river, sufficient for the naval and commercial neces- 
lities of the country, has been solved. The only other matter of importance is 
to secure the requisite funds to complete the work already begun and in success- 
ful operation. It should be borne in mind all the time that less than four millions 
of dollars will complete the work. All which is respectfully submitted. 
Yours truly, 

LEWIS A. THOMAS, 

One of said Committee. 

At a meeting of the above-named executive committee, held in the city of 
Dubuque, this 10th January, 1865, the following resolutions were adopted :

Whereas the dignity and securitj of the nation demand that our lakes on the 
*iorthem frontier should be put in a condition of "armed defence;" 

And whereas Lake Superior should in this regard be placed on an equal foot- 
^Og with the other lakes, as its commerce and mineral interests have become of 
^ual national. importance; 

And whereas bj opening a canal through the isthmus or neck of land known 
fks the " Portage," which separates the waters of Portage lake from Lake 
Saperior, so that vessels can at all times enter Portage lake, a harbor will 
thereby be made of Portage lake of inestimable value to the government of the 
tJnited States, and a passage for ships across the base of Keweenaw Point, of 
like importance to commerce and navigation ; 

And whereas this great work, so necessary to the government, to trade, and 
to the prosperity of the country, involves an expenditure of such magnitude 
that unaided individual enterprise may not be eaual to its accomplishment un- 
less quickened by a just stimulant from national bounty : Be it, therefore, 

Resolved, (^ the senate concur,) That our senators in Congress and the mem-

•^OlNT RESOLUTION asking the government ot the United States for a grant of laud in 
aid of the construction of a harbor at the mouth of the Ontonagon river, on the south shore 
of Lake Superior. 

Whereas, the dignity and security of the nation demands that our lakes on 
^he northern frontier should be put in a condition of "armed defence," and that 
take Superior should in this respect, be placed on an equal footing with the 
other lakes, as its commerce and mineral interests have become of equal national 
importance ; and whereas there is at present no safe harbor between Copper . 
Harbor ani La Point, on Lake Superior, where our steamers and sailing vessels 
can enter, a distance of one hundred and fifty miles ; and whereas the Ontona- 
gon river empties into Lake Superior, about half way between said points, and 
has a sufficient depth of water inside the bar, which is formed across the 
entrance of the same, and is of sufficient extent to make one of the safest and 
best harbors on Lake Superior ; and whereas by opening the channel at the 
mouth of said river a perfectly safe harbor will thereby be formed, where 
Vessels of all classes can lie in safety, protected from all storms, which will be 
of incalculable value to the government of the United States, and to the great 
and growing commercial interest of Lake Superior ; and whereas a large amount 
of money has been expended by private enterprise, building piers and improv- 
ing said harbor, and it is now found that a much larger expenditure of money 
will be required to open said harbor than was at first supposed, and that it can- 
not be accomplished without the aid of the general government ; be it therefore 

Resolved, That our senators and members of the House of Representatives 
be requested to use their best endeavors to obtain from Congress a grant of 
land, in such quantity as Congress may deem best, to aid in constructing a har- 
bor at the mouth of the Ontonagon river. 

Resolved, That the governor be requested to transmit copies of the foregoing 
preamble and resolutions to our senators and representatives in Congress.

BRANCH MINT AT DALLES, OREGON. 



MEMORIAL 

OF THE 

IKGISLATIVI- ASSEMBLY OF WASHINGTOX TERRITORY 



IN K ELATION TO 



A branch mint at Dalles t Oregon. 



^'^KcARY 30, 1865 — Referred to the Committee of Ways and Means and ordered to be 

printed. 



-^o t/i€ honorable the Senate and House of Rej)resentatives of the United 
States of America in Congrei^s assembled : 

Your memorialists, the legislative assembly of the Territory of Washington, 
"^spectfully beg leave to present to your consideration the following preamble 
"^^d prayer : 

Whereas Congress did, at the thirty-eighth session, enact a law providing for 
^te erection and establishment of a United States branch mint at Dalles, Wasco 
bounty, Oregon ; 

And whereas rich and extensive fields of gold and silver are being constantly 
■discovered and developed in the Territories of Montana, Idaho, and Washing- 
'U>n, which fully justifies the belief that the mines embraced in these Territories 
-^e destined to produce a greater amount of gold and silver than the entire 
i^maining portion of the Pacific coast ; 

And whereas the transportation ©f the precious metals produced in these 
Territories to the branch mint in San Francisco is attended with great danger, 
loss of time, and expense, the high rates of express charges being ruinous to 
i>oth the mining and mercantile community, thereby compelling the miner to. 
Sell his dust at a heavy discount on its intrinsic value ; 

And whereas the aforesaid city of Dalles is situated at a point where all the 
roads leading to the different mining districts in eastern Oregon, Washington . 
and Idaho Territories concentrate, thereby rendering the said city more acces- 
8ible, eligible, and convenient than any other place in the State of Oregon ; 

And whereas it sometimes happens that during severe winters the lower 
Columbia river is closed, and the Cascade mountains, between Dalles and Port- 
land, rendered practically impassable, thereby suspending communication and 
preventing travel below Dalles, while the said city can be reached by land 
travel from the mining districts at all seasons of the year ; all of which facts, 
in the opinion of your memorialists, confirms the wisdom of your choice in the 
selection of the said city of Dalles as the most advantageous place for the loca- 
Jtion of a branch mint ; 



2 BRANCH MINT AT DALLES, OREGON. 

And whereas powerful and persistent efforts are being made by certain parties- 
to effect a repeal of the law locating the said branch mint at Dalles, and to 
establish it at Portland, Oregon, which purpose, if accompnshed, will prove a 
serious detriment and disadvantage to the entire population of eastern Oregon 
and the Territories of Washington, Idaho, and Montana : 

Therefore, your memorialists would respectfully and earnestly pray that your 
honorable body will immediately appoint commissioners for the erection and 
establishment of the branch mint at Dalles, Wasco county, Oregon, and thai 
measures be adopted to finish and put it into practical operation at the earliest 
period of time possible and your memorialists, as in duty bound, will ever 
pray, &c., &c. 

Resolved, That the secretary of the Territory be requested to immediately 
transmit a certified copy of the foregoing memorial to our delegate in Congress, 
and that he be, and is hereby, instructed to lay the same before Congress, and 
to use his influence to secure the accomplishment of the prayer thereof.

CUSTOM-HOUSE AT PORT ANGELOS. 



MEMORIAL 



LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY OF WASHINGFON TERRITORY, 

PRAYING 

Congress to remove the custom-house from "Port Angelos to Port Totonsend, 



^^AjjUARY 30, 1865. — Referred to the Committee on Commerce and orderei to be printeil. 



Tfc t/ie honorable Senate and House of Representatires : 

Your memorialists, the legislative assembly of the Territory of Washington^ 
"^ould respectfully represent, that the interests of the commerce of this collec- 
tion district imperatively demands a change in the location of the port of entry 
for Puget's Sound. 

And your memorialists would further represent, that previous to the removal 
of the port of entry from Port Townsend to Port Angelos the shipping of 
this district was better accommodated, and the revenues more easily collected^ 
than they can possibly be collected at any other point in the district. 

And your memorialists would further represent, that there never was any 
good and sufficient reason for the removal of the port of entry from Port 
Townsend, which place has a safe and commodious harbor, and easy of access 
at all times, and being situated conveniently to all the ports where shipping is 
owned in this district, and in the immediate vicinity of and below all the prin- 
cipal places of business on the Straits ofFuca. 

And your memorialists would further represent, that a trial of two years and 
a half has fully demonstrated the entire unfitness of Port Angelos as the port 
of entry for Puget's Sound district, either as a convenient point for the collection 
of the revenue or for the entrance and clearance of vessels engaged in trade 
with this district. 

In view of the facts as above set forth, your memorialists would respectfully 
request that the port of entry be immediately removed from Port Angelos and 
located at Port Townsend. And, as in duty bound, your memorialists will 
ever pray. 

Resolved hy the legislative council of the Territory of Washing tojit That 
the secretary of the Territory be, and he is hereby, requested to forward a copy

RECRUITS FOR OLD REGIMENTS. 



MEMORIAL 

OP THE 

GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF INDIANA, 



The discharge of recruits from that State who volunteered into old regiments in 
18G2, on the understanding and agreement of the mustering officer that they 
were to be discharged with the regiment when its term of service expired. 



January 30, 1865.— Refencd to the Committee on Military Affairs and ordered to be printed. 



Senate Chamber, 
Indiana Legislature, January 26, 1865. 

Dear Sir : 1 have the honor to transmit herewith a memorial which has 
been adopted by both houses of the Indiana legislature, which you are very 
respectfully requested to lay before the house of Congress over which you 
preside. 

I am, respectfully, your obedient servant, 

A. T. WHITTLESEY, 
Principal Secretary Indiana JState Se?iate. 
Hon. Schuyler Colfax, 

Speaker of the House of Representatives, Washington, D, C, 



To the Senate and House of Representatives in Congress asscjnhlcd : 

The general assembly of the State of Indiana respectfully beg leave to me- 
Hiorialize your honorable body upon matters herein set forth, and which your 
ttiemorialists deem of great importance to many citizens of the State, and to 
"^hich your immediate attention is earnestly requested. 

Prior to the 1st of January, 1863, the ranks of the old regiments, then in 
the field, had become so greatly decimated by hard service and frequent engage- 
Hacnts with the enemy, that it beiame necessary, in order to preserve such or- 
ganization, that a general anxiety was felt, bL)th by the people and the author- 
ities, that they should be speedily filled up with recruits. 

This anxiety greatly stimulated enlistments, and the prospect of serving in 
eompanies with experienced comrades encouraged volunteering. 



2 NEW RECRUITS FOR OLD REGIMENTS. 

The men thus recruited in the State of Indiana had the full undersUmding 
that they were enlisted for the unexpired time of the old organizations, into 
which they were mustered, and that they would be mustered out of the service 
at the expiration of the original term of service of such old organizations. 

In this understanding the volunteer, the recruiting officer, the State authori- 
ties, and the people fully participated, and in the absence of any order from 
the War Department affecting the subject, and for reasons following, this view 
of the matter was not unreasonable. 

1. At the time these enlistments were made, the impression prevailed gene- 
rally in the army, and among the people, that the war would end and the 
Boldiers be discharged even before the expiration of the original term of service 
of the orgauizations into which such recruits were mustered. 

2. The recruiting was carried on for particular regiments, and not for tbe service 
generally, there being no general system of recruiting for the army established, 
thus naturally producing a belief that no service outside of or beyond the term 
of these regiments would be exacted. 

3. The advantages of maintaining old organizations, and placing recruits 
among old expenenced associates, under the command of tried officers, were ap- 
parent to all, and it was equally apparent that no recruits could be induced to 
enlist in any organization that would terminate prior to the expiration of the 
term for which said recruits were to be mustered, thereby separating such recruits 
from their former comrades and officers, and without their consent attaching them 
to organizations in which they would be total strangers. 

4. Whole regiments had been enlisted and accepted into the service for terms 
no greater, thus inducing tbe belief that soldiers were desired without particular 
reference to the term of service. 

5. The impending draft of that year was for a term of nine months, which 
induced the belief that volunteering for a much longer period, as was the case 
with such recruits, would be a judicious arrangement for the government. 

6. At the time these enlistments were made, no system of recruiting had been 
devised, or talked of, and of course there could be no intimation that any regi- 
ment would be continued beyond the time of its original enlistment. 

With these views recruiting officers invariably informed such recruits that 
they were to be discharged at the expiration of the term of service of the old 
organizations into which they consented to be mustered, and this was agreed to 
and concurred in by the mustering officers then on duty. Recruiting and muster- 
ing officers were strengthened in this view of the case from the general tenor of 
certain orders of the War Department, providing for and regulating recruiting 
for old regiments, which orders, when critically considered, were not as explicit 
as might have been desired, but nevertheless were apparently on the hypothesis 
that the recmiting was for the old regiments, and not for the general service 
and that they would be discharged at the expiration of the term of such old regi- 
ments. One of the orders reads as follows : 



War Department Adjutant General's Office, 

Washington, 28, 1863. 

[General Ortlers, No. 108.] 
" 1. Whenever volunteer troops are mustered out of service, the entire regi- 
ment or other organization will be considered as mustered out at one time and 
place, except prisoners of war, who will be considered as in service until their 
arrival in a loyal State, with an allowance of time necessary for them to return 
to their respective places of enrolment. 
** By order of the Secretary of War. 

"E. D. TOWNSEND, A. A, G." 



RECRUITS FOR OLD REGIMENTS. 6 

Nor was this understanding, as your memorialists are advised, confined to 
the people of the State of Indiana, but that it prevailed extensively in other 
States, and tliis general prevalence of such views tended to strengthen the 
same with the people of Indiana. 

The following official document was exclusively published in the public 
journals, and greatly tended to increase the probability of the correctness of 
the views generally entertained by the people : 

"War Dep*t Adjutant General's Office, 

WasJiinglwi, September 26, 1862. 
"His Excellency Gov. Kirkwood, Governor of Jowa: 

"Sir: la reply to yours of the 21st instant, stating the number of regiments 
raised, and to be raised, in your State, and also making suggestions in reference 
to filling old regiments, I am directed to say that recruits for old regiments of 
B^olunteers for three years, or during the war, will be discharged at the expira- 
tion of the term for which the regiment was originally enlisted. 
** By order of the Secretary of War. 

" C. P. BUCKINGHAM, 
" Brigadier General and A, A, G." 

The foregoing facts your memorialists believe to be sufficient to establish the 
'act that recruits enlisted in old organizations, at the time referred to, were fully 
ander the impression that they were only to serve for the unexpired term of the 
arganization into which they were mustered, and that their retention in the 
service after such time works a great hardship upon them, and is greatly calcu- 
lated to discourage and dishearten them. Your memorialists are fully aware 
that the muster-rolls which said recruits signed described an enlistment for three 
years, or during the war, but at the same time are informed, and believe, that 
such averments in said rolls were explained to them as being mere technical 
Forms, and would in nowise interfere with the understanding upon which they 
were enlisted, and thus did not disturb the conviction in their minds that they 
would be discharged with the regiments they were assigned to, but, on the con- 
trary, that the government would, in good faith to her soldiers, execute fully 
the agreement made with them by the recruiting officers. 

Your memorialists are further inform ^^d that this matter has, by his excellency 
Governor Morton, been fully laid before the War Department, and its action 
urged in reference to the same, and that said department has decided that it can 
take no action in the matter, as from the form of the muster-rolls these recruits 
would be held for a term of three years, without reference to the expiration of 
the term of the organizations to which they belong. But, at the same time, 
your memorialists are confidently of the opinion that it is clearly within the 
power of Congress to grant the proper remedy to these worthy men, and your 
attention is respectfully but earnestly called to the matter, as alike demanded 
by justice, good faith, and sound policy. 

One case your memorialists desire to call your especial attention to, as some- 
what differing from all others. 

The company of Captain Charles W. Patton, in the 45th regiment (or 3d 
cavalry) of Indiana volunteers, were enlisted entire under the full understand- 
ing above set forth, and in all respects are entitled to the benefits in the fore- 
going memorial mentioned, as they were recruits mustered into an old organi- 
zation. But their case presents another merit not enjoyed by any others. So 
confident were all parties that the recruits were simply to serve for the unex- 
pired term of the old organizations, that the muster-rolls of this company show 
that fact. By reference to such rolls, on file in the office of the Adjutant Gen- 
eral, your memorialists find that the certificate of the mustering officer attached 
:o the muster-in rolls of said company reads as follows : 



4 RECRUITS FOR OLD REGIMENTS. 

** I certify, on honor, that I have carefully examined the men whose names 
are borne on this roll, their horses, and equipments, and have accepted them 
into the service of the United States for the unexpired term of three years for 
the 45th Indiana cavalry, unless sooner discharged, from this 11th day of De- 
cember, 1862. 

*«JOHN B. MILLER. 
" Cajytain 13/A U, S. Infantry, Mustering Officer. 

**Date, December 11, 1862. Station, Indianapolis, Indiana." 

The 45th regiment, into which this company was thus mustered, has served 
the full term of three years and has been mustered out of the service of the 
United States, except such recruits to the same as above mentioned, which said 
recruits, composing the company of the said Captain Patton, are still held and 
retained in service, notwithstanding the express understanding above referred 
to, and the official certificate of the mustering officer as above recited. Where- 
fore your memorialists respectfully submit the foregoing memorial, and confi- 
dently expect that your honorable body may speedily adopt such measures as 
the merits of the case and justice to the patriotic defenders of our common 
country require.

STATE OF MAINE. 



E^SOLVES. relating to an amendment of the Constitution of the United States prohibiting 

slavery. 

Resolcedf That the people of Maine, believing that tbe institution of slavery 

i© the chief obstacle to an early and permanent pacification of the country, and 

impressed with the conviction that our duty to God and our fellow-man demands 

that so foul a blot should be removed from every rod of the soil of the American 

republic, are ardently desirous that Congress should immediately submit to the 

several States a proposition to amend the Constitution of the United States, so 

as to abolish slavery ; in the confident hope that the amendment will be ratified 

by the requisite number of States, and that thereby the source of our national 

i¥oes and the stigma on our national fame may be constitutionally removed, and 

the blessings of a substantial peace, a real union, and a strong nationality secured. 

Resolved, That a copy of these resolves be transmitted to our senators and 

our representatives in Congress, and that they be requested to omit no efforts 

to secure the early passage of the resolution providing for a submission of the 

proposed amendment of the Constitution to the several States.

PAPERS 

IN RELATION TO 

EXAMINERS IN THE NEW YOKK CUSTOM-HOUSE. 



February 2, 1865.— Ordered to be printed. 



Custom-house, New York, 
Collector's Office, December 28, 1864. 
Sir : I have the honor to. acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 23d 
instant, traneonitting for my examination and opinion a copy of draught of a " bill 
to amend the acts relating to officers employed in the examination and appraise- 
ment of imported merchandise in the district of New York." 

I have to report that the draught of thb bill has been attentively considered. 
It has been submitted to a number of the most respectable and intelligent mer- 
chants and importers of this city, who, finding it does not take from the importer 
the right to appeal to reappraisers, nor from the collector the right on behalf of 
the government to order a reappraisement, if he considers the estimate of market 
value by the appraisers too low, have expressed their hope that it may pass. 

This proposed bill will effect some of the alterations which experience has 
taught us are demanded in the present system, and I doubt not the change 
will result in facilitating the despatch of the public business, and will promote 
the dignity and the discipline of that branch of the customs service, and will add 
to the integrity and safeguards of the revenue. 

These are the views of Mr. Collector Draper, which, previous to his departure 
for Washington, he desired me to communicate to the department. 
The draught enclosed in your letter is herewith returned. 
I am, very respectfully^ your obedient servant, 

C. P. CLINCH, 

Assistant Collector. 
Hon. W. P. Fb88B.\dbn, 

Secretary of Treasury. 



United States Appraisers' Office, 

New York, December 15, 1864. 
Sir : We have very carefully considered a bill for reorganizing the appraisers' 
department, submitted to us by J. T. Bailey, esq., special agent, &c., and ex- 
amined into its details with scrutiny and attention in order to suggest a remedy 
for existing evils. We are of opinion that the proposed bill is well calculated 



2 EXAMINERS IN THE NEW YORK CUSTOM-HOUSE. 

to render this department efficient, and that the public interest and the protec- 
tion of the revenue will be best promoted hy its becoming a law at the earliest 
possible day. 

The present system and organization is of a deplorable character, and should 
not be longer tolerated. We therefore earnestly invoke an immediate change, 
without which our duties cannot be performed either with satisfaction to our- 
selves, with credit to the government, or with advantage to the revenue. We 
believe the change contemplated by the new bill will be found in every waj 
desirable and advantageous. 

Very respectfully, your obedient servants,

Treasury Department, January 18, 1865. 

Sir : I have the honor of transmitting for your consideration enclosed draught 
of a " bill to amend the acts relating to officers employed in the examination 
and appraisement of imported merchandise in the district of New York." 

The object of the proposed bill is a reorganization of the appraisers' depart- 
ment at the port of New York. The administration of that branch of the pub- 
lic service has, for years, been a source of frequent complaint and difficulty. 
Investigations have been instituted, and although, in the language of tbe 
special agent intrusted with them, " the spirit of the appraisers' department has 
been improved by the removal of unworthy and incompetent officers, the 
attempt to conduct it honestly and in the interest of the government only brings 
into stronger light faults inhering in the form of organization, that embarrass 
and tend to defeat such efforts." Previous inquiries on the spot led him to the 
conclusion ** that the department has no adequate guaranty for the faithful per- 
formance of duties the most responsible that are performed by any subordinate 
officers of the government. Except in comparatively rare instances, it is impos- 
sible for the appraisers to give any attention, personally, to the actual work of 
examination and valuation, so that what is secured in these respects Mb the re- 
sult of the action of only one man' as to almost the entire volume of importa- 
tions at the port of New York." 

The legislation proposed by the enclosed draught ,would, it is confidently be- 
lieved, go far towards accomplishing the desired end. The substance of the 
draught has been submitted to the Solicitorof the Treasury, the Commissioner of 
Customs, and to the collector and appraisers of the port of New York, and approved 
by them. Their letters, with the report of the special agent are herewith 
transmitted. I do not, however, approve of the salaries proposed in the draughtf 
but recommend, in lieu thereof, four thousand dollars for the appraiser, and three 
thousand dollars for the assistant appraisers. 
With great respect, 

W. P. FESSENDEN, 

Secretary of the Treasury.

EXAMINERS IN THE NEW YORK CUSTOM-HOUSE. 



Treasury Department, 
Solicitor's Office^ January 16, 1865. 

Sir : I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of the letter of Mr. Hartley, 
dated 23d December last, enclosing draught of a " bill to amend the act relating to 
officers employed in the examination and appraisement of imported merchan- 
dise in the district of New York/' to which I was requested to give early atten- 
tion and to return, with my views. 

The subject to which this bill relates is one to which I have devoted con- 
siderable attention, and in the year 1862 I had the honor to recommend to the 
late Secretary of the Treasury the adoption of a plan of reorganization for the 
appraisers' office in New York, embracing the principal features of the bill now 
under consideration. ' It is, therefore, scarcely necessary for me to add that I 
heartily approve its main purpose and provisions. 

I have also examined the details of the bill with as much care as the mul- 
tifarious duties now pressing upon me will allow ; and, so far as I can judge, 
they — with a modification of the last section which I have indicated — appear 
pertinent and proper for the attainment of the end proposed. 

I have the honor to be, very respectfully, 

EDWARD JORDAN, 
Solicitor of the Treasury, 

Hon. Wm. p. Fessendbn, 

Secretary of the Treasury, 



Custom House, New York, 

December 19, 1864. 

Sir: I have the honor to submit herewith the draught of a proposed bill, 
changing the organization of the appraisers' department at this port. 

Under date of November 9, 1863, a report was made by me to the Solicitor 
of the Treasury, relative to the organization and administration of the apprais- 
ers* department, and was by him sent to the Secretary with an indorsement of 
recommendation for the removal of certain officers therein contained. Within 
the last six months these removals have been made ; and the new appointments, 
80 far as I can learn, are of a greatly improved character. 

Certain faults of organization were also pointed out in the report referred to, 
and the testimony of the appraisers themselves to the several points discussed 
was cited. The bill now proposed is intended to remedy the deficiencies there 
referred to, and is oflfered as the result of observation and of discussion with the 
most experienced and competent officers. 

The spirit of the administration of the appraisers' department has been im- 
proved by the removal of unworthy and incompetent officers, but the attempt to 
conduct it honestly and in the interest of the government only brings into 
stronger light faults inhering in the form of organization that embarrass and tend 
to defeat such efforts. 

I desire here to quote the following passage from my report of November 9, 
1863: 

" The conclusions which are inevitable from the testimony thus far adduced 
are, that the department has no adequate guaranty for the faithful performance 
of duties the most responsible that are performed by any subordinate officers of 
the government. Except in comparatively rare instances, it is impossible for 
the appraisers to give any attention, personally, to the actual work of examina- 
tion and valuation, so that what is secured in these respects ' is the result of the 
action of only one man,' as to almost the entire volume of importations at the 
port of New York." 



4 EXAMINERS IN THE NEW YORK CUSTOM-HOUSE. 

The statement made in this extract is still true in all particulars, and must, of 
necessity, continue so as long as the existing organization is kept up. 

The appraisers severally possess like and equal powers in respect to all ques- 
tions that may arise in the conduct of the business of the department. They 
are presumed to concur in all cases ; in affairs of importance their actual con- 
currence is indispensable. Under such circumstances the harmony and effect- 
iveness of action, which is desirable, is impossible. 

The bill now submitted provides for a single appraiser, with power to make, 
subject to the approval of the Secretaiy of the Treasury, such appointmeuts as 
are now made by the board of appraiser^, and to perform the executive duties 
now imposed upon them. He would also decide all questions of classificatioo 
where differences should arise between his subordinates, qr between them and 
importers. 

Nine assistant appraisers are provided for at salaries of thirty-five hundred 
dollars each. It is proposed that each of these shall take charge of a partico- 
lar branch of appraisement or of a certain number of " examiners,*' and actu- 
ally superintend each appraisement, giving their advice and assistance in all 
cases of doubt. 

In my opinion, the only question that can arise in regard to the salaries pro- 
posed is whether they are adequate to secure the requisite ability. The men 
who fill these positions should oe the best experts in merchandise that can be 
found, so that not only may the revenue be protected from fraud through underval- 
uations, but honest importers may not be driven from their own markets. It is 
not to be expected that competent men will accept positions, with the risks at- 
taching to political appointments, at a compensation less than that which busi- 
ness houses would give. As a matter of fact, the salaries proposed are barely 
an average of this. 

There seems to be no good reason why the examiner of drugs should stand 
in a different relation to the appraiser from the examiners of other merchandise. 
It is therefore proposed that the duties imposed upon him by the act of June, 
1848, be performed by one of the assistant appraisers provided for in the bill, 
who should also superintend the appraisement of paints, oils, and chemicals. 

I have to say, in conclusion, that the enclosed draught of bill has been submit- 
ted to the appraisers and to the collector, and, I believe, meets their full 
approval. 

I have the honor to be, with high respect, 

J. P. BAILEY, Special Agent.

FROM

IN EELATION TO 

Enrolment and license of certain vessels. 



February 4, 1865.— Ordered to bo printed. 



Treasury Department, 

February 2, 18G5. 

Sir : I have the honor of suhmitting for your consideration draught of a " hill 
relating to the enrolment and license of certain vessels." 

Its object is gradually to abolish temporary licenses of vessels trading on our 
northern lakes and rivers, and to enable the owners of such vessels to procure 
permanent papers without being subjected to the expense and inconvenience of 
taking their vessels to their home ports (which, in many cases, are remote from 
the lines of their regular voyages and trade) solely for this purpose. To avoid 
this, it has become the practice in some districts to renew temporary licenses 
from year to year without reporting to the home ports. This must inevitably 
lead to confusion and defectiveness of the records of vessels. 

It is believed that the legislation contemplated by the enclosed bill would 
provide the required remedy, and, at the same time, relieve ship-owners from 
an onerous and unnecessary burden.

EXCHANGE OF PRISONERS. 



TESTIMONY 



OP

TAKEN BY 



T%e Joint Committee on the Conduct of the War, and relating to the exchange 

of prisoners. 



February 11, 1865. — Laid upon the table and ordered to be printed. 



TESTIMONY. 

Question. It is stated, upon what authority I do not know, that 70a are 
charged entirely with the exchange of prisoners. 

Answer. That is correct. And what is more, I have effected an arrangement 
for the exchange of prisoners, man for man, and officer for officer, or his equiva- 
lent, according to the old cartels, until one or the other party has exhausted the 
number they now hold. I get a great many letters daily from friends of pris- 
oners in the south, every one of which I cause to be answered, telling them 
that this arrangement has been made, and that I suppose exchanges can be 
made at the rate of about three thousand a week. Ana just as fast as they can 
deliver prisoners to us I will receive them and deliver their prisoners to them. 
And the Salisbury prisoners will be coming right on. I myself saw Colonel 
Hatch, the assistant commissioner of exchange on the part of the south, and he 
told me that the Salisbury and Danville prisoners would be coming right on at 
once. He said that he could bring them on at the rate of five thousand or six 
thousand a week. 

Question. There is no impediment in the wav ? 

Answer. There is no impediment on our side. I could deliver and receive 
every one of them in a very short time if they will deliver those they hold. We 
have lost some two weeks lately on account of the ice in the river.

FORT OR GARRISON IN SOUTHWESTERN MISSOURI. 



MEMORIAL 



Loyal citizens of the southwestern portion of the State of Missouri, asking for 
the establishment of a fort or garrison near the southwest comer of the State 
of Missouri, 



February 13, 1865. — Referred to the Committee on Military Affairs and ordered to be printed. 



A MEMORIAL to the President and Congress of the United States and to the Secretary of 
War, asking for a fort or garrison to be established near the southwest corner of the State. 

Whereas the loyal people of southwest Missouri have suffered greatly in all 
their material interests by reason of the war, and have been, are now, and will 
continue to be for years to come, greatly exposed to bands of marauders, who 
infest the country, robbing, murdering, and leaving their mark of death and 
desolation wherever they go. 

There is a large section of country lying between Fort Scott, in the State of 
Kansas, and Fort Gibson, in the Cherokee Nation, a distance of some two hun- 
dred miles, including some seven of the western border counties in Missouri, 
and the more interior counties thereto adjacent ; also a part of the northwestern 
portion of the State of Arkansas, with a portion of the Cherokee Nation, and 
the Seneca, Shawnee, and Chippewa tribes of Indians, all of which is exposed 
to marauding bands, who make their raids from a southwest direction ; and the 
rebel army, in almost every raid it has made into Missouri since the rebellion 
commenced, has either passed in or out of the State through this unprotected 
gap, thereby giving great trouble to all portions of the State, and the conse- 
quence is that our citizens are becoming greatly discouraged on account of the 
lives lost, as well as property taken annually. 

The above-named Cherokee country is extensive and fertile, producing some 
of the finest and largest salt springs in America, flowing off in large branches, 
and giving out more salt water than it is likely will ever be consumed. These 
spriiigs have been worked extensively and a large amount of salt mado annu- 
ally, but the ravages of war have stopped the hand of industry and closed this 
avenue of wealth. With proper protection, here would open up a business that 
^ould give employment to thousands, and furnish to millions of people one of 
the essential articles of life, (that of salt,) and thereby become a great source of 
wealth to us as a people. 

The mineral resources in southwest Missouri are so great as to reouire the 
government's earliest possible attention, as they are hardly snrpassea in any 
country, especially that of lead, in the counties of Jasper and Newton. A geo- 
logical report made by the State geologist, in 1855, has the following on page 
163, first and second annual report : 

"There are at least four hundred square miles in southwest of Jasper and 
the northwest, central; and eastern portions of Newton county, which give evetY

indication of being very valuable mineral lands. Mines have been already 
opened and succcssfiilly worked in ten townships, and there are several othen 
which give indications just as promising as those already worked. Mineral is 
found over this whole region. Scarcely a shaft has been sunk, however care- 
lessly the spot was chosen, without obtaining mineral sufficient to render the 
labor profitable. One may get a good view of this mineral region by starting 
from Carthage and travelling a little north of west ten miles to the Centre 
Creek mines, thence a little west of south seven miles to Mineral Point ; from 
thence southeast eleven miles to Mosby's mines ; and from thence a little south 
of east nine or ten miles to Clover Prairie mines ; thence eastward some six 
miles. The country along this whole route, and for several miles on either 
side, presents the same geological feature, and the same indications of great 
mineral wealth. And the day is not far distant when this will prove to be one 
of the richest districts in the country.*' 

Since the foregoing geological report was made, (1855,) and up to the break- 
ing out of this rebellion, all these mines had been worked extensively. Some 
seven or eight smelting furnaces have been in successful operation ; the largest 
one containing six eyes, with steam power; and this furnace alone, while in 
operation, was capable of smelting over 10,000,000 pounds of lead annually, 
while some others were able to produce almost as much. This great mineral 
region has become almost a desolated country, with here and there an 'inhabit- 
ant. Its vast and untold mineral wealth lies dormant in the bowels of the 
earth. Protection given to this country by the general government would in- 
sure success to thousands of honest laborers, who would soon produce an 
amount of lead that would stop the necessity of importing that article from for- 
eign countries, and give life and energy to one of the finest portions of our State. 

The Granby lead mines are in the centre of this vast mineral region, and the 
great necessity of building the southwest branch of the Pacific railroad to 
Granby, in a military sense, has been fully set forth in a memorial on that sub- 
ject, which it is hoped will receive due consideration. 

From the foregoing considerations, we, your memorialists, would respectfully 
recommend to his excellency Abraham Lincoln, President of the United States, 
to Congress, and Hon. E. M. Stanton, Secretary of War, that there be a board 
of competent engineers selected and sent to the town of Neosho, Newton county, 
whose duty it shall be to select in that section of country a suitable place for a 
fort, and locate the same thereon. 

Resolved hy the senate^ (the house concurring therein,) First. That the fore- 
going preamble and memorial are recommended to the consideration of the Pres- 
ident and Congress of the United States, and to the Secretary of War. 

Second. That it is hereby made the duty of the secretary of the senate to 
transmit to the President of the United States, to each senator and congress- 
man from this State, and to the Secretary of War, each, one copy of the fore- 
going preamble and nriemorial.

MEMOHIAL 

OF 

C. p. SMITH AND OTHER CITIZENS OF THE UNITED STATES, 

PRATING 

For the establishment of a Bureau of Life Insurance, 



February 3, 1865. — Referred to the Committee on the Post Office and Post Roads. 
February 14, 1865. — Ordered, That the Committee on the Post Office and Post Roads be 
discharged from the further consideration of the memorial, and that it be referred to the 
Committee of Ways and Means and ordered to be printed. 



To the Senate and House of Representatives in Congress assetnhled : 

We, the undersigned, citizens of the United States, respectfully represent that 
there are now in tne United States thirty, (30,) or more, life insurance com- 
panies incorporated hy loyal States and States in rebellion. 

That in order to secure all the averages which appertain to health and 
longevity, it is necessary for, and the several companies do issue policies of life 
insurance in States other than those from whom they receive their charters. 

That the people of the United States are constantly changing their residences, 
from one State to another, and are thereby subjected to embarrassments, by 
reason of conflicting State laws, which to a greater or less extent prejudice the 
interest of persons insured, and their survivors, in the collections of claims for 
losses. 

That the rules and regulations of State institutions are variable, and that no 
standards have been, or are likely to be established, whereby the solvency and 
perpetuity of life insurance companies will be secured. 

That at the present time there are very nearly or quite one hundred thousand 
(100,000) persons holding policies of life insurance, amounting in the aggregate 
to about two hundred and seventy millions ($270,000,000) of dollars, toward 
the payment of which the several companies have accumulated about forty 
millions ($40,000,000) of dollars, and are receiving in annual premiums about 
eight million five hundred thousand ($8,500,000) dollars. 

That the present is believed to be a favorable time for Congress to establish 
a Bureau of Life Insurance, at the seat of government, under an act which will 
enable State institutions to become national in their character, receiving new 
charters from and depositing the capitals with the government, and exchanging 
their present policies for issues such as shall be authorized by the Comptroller 
of Life Insurance. 



2 BUREAU OF LIFE INSURANCE. 

That, iu tho opinion of the undersigned, snch a modification of the system of 
life insurance would be beneficial to the present life insurance companies, and 
the present holders of their policies ; and that the holding of policies of life 
insurance, issued by life insurance companies of a national character, would 
tend greatly to increase the interest of the people in the government, and that 
the latter would be strengthened by the concentration of capital which has been 
already accumulated, and which, under a national system, would increase with 
great rapidity ; and tho blessings of life insurance would be more generally 
distributed among the people. 

In view of the above, and many other considerations, the undersigned petition 
Congress to consider the subject, and pass the act hereto appended, with such 
alterations and, amendments as in your wisdom shall be deemed necessary. 
And, as in duty bound, they will ever pray.

Comptroller of Life Insurance, who shall record and carefully preserve the same 
in his ofiice. 

Copies o\ such certificate, duly certified by the Comptroller, and authenticated 
by his seal of office, shall be legal and sufficient evidence in all courts and places 
within the United States, or the jurisdiction of the government thereof, of the 
existence of such company or association, and of every other matter or thing 
which could be proved by the production of the original certificate. And the 
Comptroller shall have authority to withhold from any association his certificate 
authorizing the commencement of business, if he shall have reason to suppose

original articles of association, before the same are deposited with the Comptroller. 

8. And he it further enacted^ That when the Comptroller of Life Insurance 
has examined the articles of association, and the certificates lodged with his 
department or bureau, and finds the same to be made and executed according 
to the provisions of this act, every such association or company shall, from the

and necessarily preliminary, until authorized by the Comptroller of Life Insurance. 
Such association shall have power to adopt a common seal, and shall have 
perpetual succesion by the name designated in its organization certificate, unless 
the franchise shall be forfeited by a violation of this act ; by such name it may 
make contracts, sue and be sued, complain and defend, in any court of law and 
equity, as fully as natural persons. It may elect or appoint its directors, and by 
its directors appoint a president, vice president, secretary and other officers, 
clerks, and agents, define their duties and obligations, and compensation, and 
dismiss said officers and employes, or any of them, at pleasure, and appoint 
others to fill their places ; and exercise under this act all such incidental powers 
as shall be necessary to carry on the business of life insurance in all of the 
branches or departments of life insumnce, granting and purchasing annuities, 
and receiving, holding, and investing money, and estate in trust ; and its board 
-of directors shall also have power to define and regulate, by by-laws not incon- 
sistent with the provisions of this act, the manner in which its stock shall be 
transferred, its directors elected or appointed, its officers appointed, its property 
transferred, and its general business conducted ; and its franchises and privileges 
shall be enjoyed, and its usual business shall be transacted, at an office located

9. And he it further enacted. That the affairs of every association or company 
shall be managed by not less than ten directors, one of whom shall be president. 
J]very director shall, during his whole term of service, be a citizen of the United 



BUREAU OF LIFE INSURANCE. 5 

States ; aud at leapt a majority of the directors shall be residents of the State in 
which such associutioii or company is located. Each director shall own in his own 
right at least ten shares of the capital stock of the association of which he is a 
director. 

Kach director, before being eligible to act as such, shall make oath that he is 
the owner of ten shares or more, as the case may be, of the capital stock of such 
association, which are of his own right, and are not pledged or hypothecated, 
and that he has accepted of the appointment, and will discharge his duties to the 
best of his knowledge and ability; which oath, subscribed by himself and certi- 
fied by the officer before whom it is taken, shall be immediately transmitted to 
the Comptroller, and by him filed and preserved in his office. And it shall be the 
duty of the secretary of such association to certify in due form to the death, re- 
signation, or otherwise termination of office of any director, which certificate shall 
be forwarded to the Comptroller of Life Insurance, and by him placed on file. 

10. And he it further enacted. That the directors of any association first elected 
or appointed shall hold their places until their successors shall be elected and 
qualified. All subsequent elections shall be held Annually on such day in the 
month of January as may be specified in the articles of association, and the 
directors so elected shall hold their places for one year, aud until their successors 
are elected and qualified. But any director ceasing to be the owner of the re- 
quisite amount of stock, or having in any manner become disqualified, shall 
thereby be considered as having vacated his place, and such vacancy or any other 
vacancy in the board shall be filled by appointmi nt. on a two-thirds vote, by 
the remaining directors, and any director so appointed shall hold his place until 
the next election. If for any cause an election of dii-ectors shall not be made 
at the time appointed, the association shall not for that reason be dissolved, but 
an election may be held on any subsequent day, thirty days notice thereof, in 
all cases, having been given in a newspaper published in the place in which 
such association is located. 

11. And he it further enacted. That in all elections of directors, and in decid- 
ing all questions at meetings of shareholders, each shareholder shall be entitled 
to one vote on each share of stock held by him. Shareholders may vote by 
proxii 8 duly authorized in writing, but no officer or employ^ of the association 
shall act as proxy, and no shareholder indebted for any instalment due and 
unpaid shall be allowed to vote on his own stock, or on that belonging to any 
other person. 

1 2. And he it further enacted, That the capital stock of any association formed 
under this act shall be divided into shares of one hundred dollars each, and be 
deemed personal property, and transferable on the books of the company or as- 
sociation, in such manner as may be prescribed in the articles of aesociation, 
and every person becoming a shareholder by such transfer shall, in proportion 
to his share, succeed to all the rights and liabilities of a shareholder, the same as if 
he was an original shareholder, and no change shall be made in the articles of 
association by which the rights, remedies, or security of existing creditors of 
the association shall be impaired. 

The shareholders of each association formed under the provisions of this act 
shall be held individually responsible, equally and ratably, and not one for an- 
other, for all contracts, debts, and engagements of such association to the extent 
of the amount of their stock therein, at the par value thereof, in addition to the 
amount of the same, until the surplus of such association shall equal twenty -five 
per centum of the entire capital stock, to be determined by the Comptroller of 
Life Insurance. And when the Comptroller shall decide that such surplus is equal 
to twenty-five per centum of the capital stock, and that the capital stock is not 
impaired, the liability of the shareholders shall be limited to iheir shares of 
Btopk 80 long as said surplus of twenty-five per centum is maintained; but 
whenever said surplus is reduced below twenty-five per centum of the capital 



b BUREAU OF LIFE INSURANCE. 

stock the sharebolderd shall be liable to the same extent as were the original 
shareholders. And if at any time there »hall be a deficiency in the capital 
stock, or in the surplus of twenty-five per centum, after the same ha? been accu- 
mulated, the said association shall not pay any dividend or dividends to its 
shareholders until such deficiency is made good ; and it shall be discretionary 
with the Comptroller of Life Insurance to require that said association shall within 
sixty days make good any deficiency of its capitiil stock, or wind up its affaire 
under the provisions of this act. And whenever the Comptroller of Life Insurance 
shall deem it expedient to investigate the affairs of any association formed under 
the provisions of this act, for the purpose of ascertaining its ability to reinsure 
oil of its outstanding liabilities, or to meet its future liabilities on being reduced 
to present values, said investigation shall be conducted on the basis of the ex- 
pectation of human life, as laid down in the "Carlisle Tables," and five per cent, 
interest on money, compounded annually, with a reduction of twenty per centum 
from the premiums expected to be received, to provide for contingencies and ex- 
penses. And whenever it shall appear by such investigation that the assets in 
hand and the present value of future premiums to be received, ascertained as 
above provided, are insufficient to meet existing claims and the present value 
of its outstanding future liabilities, it shall be the duty of the Comptroller of Life 
Insurance to notify said association of such deficiency ; and in case the capital of 
such association is not increased, within sixty days, t > the amount which shall 
be required by said Comptroller, it shall be his duty to proceed to wind up such 
association in the manner provided in this act. 

13. And he it further enacted. That it shall be lawful for any association 
formed under this act, by its articles of association, to provide for an increase of 
its capital stock from time to time, as may be deemed expedient, subject to the 
limitations of this act : Provided, That the maximum of such increase in the 
articles of association shall be determined by the Comptroller, and no increase of 
capital shall be valid until the whole amount of such increase shall be paid in 
and notice thereof shall have been transmitted to the Comptroller of Life Insur- 
ance and his certificate obtained, specifying the amount of such increase of capi- 
tal stock, with his approval thereof, and that it has been duly paid in as a part 
o£ the capital of such association. And every association shall have power to 
reduce its capital stock : Provided, That by no such reduction shall its capital 
be brought below the amount required by this act in order to organize such 
association, nor shall any reduction be made without first obtaining the written 
consent of the Comptroller of Life Insurance. 

14. And he it further enacted. That at least one hundred thousand dollars of 
the capital stock of every association shall be paid in before it shall be author- 
ized to commence business, and any remainder of the capital stock shall be paid 
in instalments of at least ten percentum in each and every month succeeding 
the time it shall be authorized by the Comptroller to commence business. And 
the payment of each instalment shall be certified to the Comptroller under oath 
by the president or secretary of the association. 

1 5. And he it further enacted, That whenever the capital stock of any asso- 
ciation organized under this act shall not exceed one hundred thousand dollars, 
the whole amount of said capital stock shall be paid in at one time, and upon 
such day as shall be ordered by the directors ; and in case any subscrioer 
thereto shall omit to pay the same for the period of three days, he shall forfeit 
his right to pay the same ; and it shall be lawful for the directors to distribute 
the shares thus forfeited to other persons. And whenever the capital stock sub- 
scribed shall exceed the amount of one hundred thousand dollars, it shall be 
lawful for the directors to call in full shares to the amount of one hundred thou- 
sand dollars, to be paid in one payment, and to call in all of the remaining shares 
by instalments as hereinbefore provided. And in case such instalments are 

not paid when they become due, it shall be lawful for the directors to sell such 



BUREAU OF LIFE INSURANCE. 7 

stock at public auctioUi on giving the subscribers ten days* notice of the time 
and place of such sale, and the subscnber whose stock is thus sold shall be 
liable to such association for the loss and expenses which shall accrue. 

16. And be it further enacted. That every association, after having complied 
with the provisions of this act, preliminary to the commencement of business 
under its provisions, and before it shall be authorized to commence business, 
shall transfer and deliver to the Comptroller of Life Insurance any United States 
registered bonds, bearing interest, to the amount of one hundrea thousand dol- 
lars ; which bonds shall be deposited with the Comptroller of Life Insurance, and 
by him safely kept in his office until such time as the same shall be otherwise 
disposed of, in pursuance of the provisions of this act. And the Secretary of 
the Treasury is hereby authorized, for the purposes of such deposit, to receive 
from the Comptroller of Life Insurance and cancel any United States coupon 
bouds, and to issue in lieu thereof registered bonds of like amount, bearing a like 
rate of interest, and having the same time to run, and the deposit of bonds shall 
be by every association increased as its capital is paid up, or increased over 
and above one hundred thousand dollars, so that every association shall at all 
times have on deposit the full amount of one hundred thousand dollars, and 
fifty percentum of any excess over that amount of its capital stock. 

17. And be it further enacted. That whenever a certificate shall have been 
transmitted to the Comptroller of Life Insurance, as provided in this act, and the 
association transmitting the same shall notify the comptroller that one hundred 
thousand dollars of the capital stock has been paid in as aforesaid, and that such 
association has complied with all the provisions of this act, as required to be 
complied with before such association shall be authorized to commence the 
business set forth in its articles of association, the Comptroller shall examine 
into the condition of such association, ascertain especially the amount of money 
paid in on account of its capital, the name and place of residence of each director 
of such association, and the amount of capital stock of which each is a bona fide 
owner, and generally whether such association has complied with all the re- 
quirements of this act, to entitle it to engage in the business of life insurance ; 
and shall cause to be made, and attested by the oath of a mnjority of the direct- 
ors, and by the president and secretary of such association, a statement of all 
the facts necessary to enable the Comptroller to determine whether such associa- 
tion is lawfully entitled to commence the business of life insurance under this 
act. 

18. And be it further enacted, That if upon a careful examination of the facts 
so reported, or of any other facts which may come to the knowledge of the 
Comptroller, whether by means of a special commission appointed by him for the 
purpose of inquiring into the condition of such association, or otherwise, it shall 
appear that such association is lawfully entitled to commence the business of 
life insurance, the Comptroller shall give to such association a certificate under 
his hand and official seal that such association has complied with all the pro- 
visions of this act required to be complied with before being entitled to com- 
mence the business of life insurance under it, and that such association is 
authorized to commence said business accordingly; and it shall be the duty of 
the association to cause said certificate to be published in some newspaper pub- 
lished in the city or county where the association is located for at least sixty 
days next after the issuing thereof. 

19. And be it further enacted. That all transfers of United States bonds 
which shall be made by any association under the provisions of this act, as a 
public deposit with the United States, shall be made to the Comptroller of Life 
Insurance in trust for the association, with a memorandum, written or printed 
on each bond, and signed by the president or secretary of the association making 
such deposit, a receipt for which shall be given to said association by the Comp- 
troller of Life Insurance, or by his deputy, stating that it is held in trust for the 



8 BUREAU OP LIFE INSURANCE. 

association in whose behalf such transfer is made, and as sccuiitj for the liqui- 
dation and payment of all legal claims against such association. No transfer or 
assignment of any such bonds by the Comptroller of Life Insurance shall be 
deemed valid or of binding force and effect unless countersigned by the 
Treasurer of the United States. 

It shall be the duty of the Comptroller of Life Insurance to keep in his office a 
book in which shall be entered the name of every association for whose accoant 
such transfer of bonds is made, and the name of the party to whom such trans- 
fer is made, and the par value of such bonds, so transferred, shall be entered in 
said book ; and it shall be the duty of the Comptroller, immediately upon enter- 
ing the same, to advise, by mail, the association from whose account such trans- 
fer was made, of the kind and numerical designation of the bonds and amount 
thereof so transferred. 

20. And be it further enacted. That the Treasurer shall at all times have 
access to the books of the Comptroller of Life Insurance, for the purpose of as- 
certaining the amount and correctness of the transfers and assignments presented 
to him to sign, and the amount of deposit in bonds made by each and every as- 
sociation organized under the provisions of this act. 

21. And be it further enacted, That upon the transfer and delivery of bonds 
to the Comptroller of Life Insurance as hereinbefore provided, the association

ciation than is herein provided, the person or persons paying the same, or their 
legal representatives, may recover back, in any action of debt, twice the amount 
of excess of interest thus paid, from the association taking or receiving the same, 
provided that such action is commenced within two years from the time the 
right to do so has accrued. But the purchase or sale of bonds or stocks owned

such return, including the age of the person whose life is involved thereby, and 
the annual or temporary premium paid or to be paid thereon, designating each

terest on money, with the addition of thirty per cent, to the net cost of such 
premiums ; and it shall be the duty of every association organized under thi& 
act to prepare and submit to and obtain the approval of the Comptroller of Life 
Insurance, each and every table of premiums required in the transaction of their

36. And he it further enax-ted. That no association shall make any loan or 
discount on the security of the shares of its own capital stock, nor be the pur-

of, unless the Comptroller shall in writing, on application, of such association,, 
extend the time for such sale. 

37. And he it further enacted. That no association shall, during its continu- 
ance, withdraw or permit to be withdrawn, either directly or in the form of divi-

tion of shareholders ; and every association shall be deemed to be solvent, pro- 
vided its assets on appraisal by the Comptroller, or by persons appointed by

Hall Missouri State Constitutional Convention, 

St, Louis, Missouri, February 10, 1865. 

The foUowiDg memorial herf^witb submitted was nnanimouslj adopted hy 
this hody to-day : 

To his excellency the President if the United States, and the honorable the Senate 
and House of Representatives of the United States in Congress assembled: 

The conveDtion of this State respectfully memorialize you to grant to the 
State the means to pay her military debt, and base their application on the fol- 
lowing facts : 

That the whole of said debt has been incurred by the State in support of the 
genciral government and the cause of the Union, and without which expenditure 
on the y^art of the State the government of the United States would have had 
bo maintain a force at greater expense to protect the Union people of the State ; 
that in their efforts to remain in the Union and to perpetuate our government, 
our people have had to bear great losses and burdens, with little ability to bear 
tip tinder them. 

That our State has for the last four years been devastated by war, preventing 
the raising of crops or doing anything to enable them to pay taxes ; that in 
their effort to remain in the Union, this State has emancipated her people 
liitherto held in bondage, and as a consequence curtailed a portion of the labor 
of the State, and that this labor it will ta!ke time to replace. 

That in consideration of our condition and the justice of the claim, we earn- 
estly appeal to the government to grant without delay the legislation necessary 
to enable us to discharge this debt in full.

Whereas the State of Indiana has at diflPerent times been invaded by the

PRAYING 



For a grant of land to aid in the construction of the Mineral Range railroad, 
from Lac La Belle to the Montreal river. 



Feb^uabt 18. 1865. — Laid upon the table and ordered to be printed. 



JOINT RESOLUTION asking the general government for a grant of land to aid in the 
construction of the Mineral Range railroad. 

Whereas the development of the mineral resources of the Lake Superior 
region of the State of Michigan has become a subject of national importance ; 
and 

Whereas the greater portion of the mineral range of said region, extending 
from Keweenaw Point to nearly the west end of Lake Superior, a distance of 
one hundred and fifty miles, and is distant from a safe harbor, and approachable 
only by land carriage, the expense of which is so great as to preclude the suc- 
cessful opening and working of the mines ; and 

Whereas a company for the construction of a railroad from Lac La Belle to 
the GlifT mine, in Keweenaw county, and thence along the mineral range to 
some point on the Montreal river, will have perfected its organization, under 
the laws of the State of Michigan, by the first of February, 1865, which com- 
pany proposes to build said road within ten years ; and 

Whereas the construction of said road will open to the markets of the world 
the inexhaustible wealth of said mineral range, giving employment to thousands 
of laborers, and adding largely to the national revenue ; and 

Whereas the national government has practiced this policy of disposing of 
the public domain as a proper means to develop the resources of the country, 
and has made liberal grants of land to aid in the construction of railroads hav- 
ing at least no greater merit than this : Therefore, 

Resolved by the senate and house of representatives of the State of Michi- 
gan. That we respectfully ask the Congress of the United States to grant to said 
company fifteen sections of land for each mile of the length of said road, to be 
selected from the lands belonging to the general government in the Upper Pe- 
ninsula, and authorizing said company to sell seventy sections thereof upon the 
completion of ten consecutive miles of said road. 

Resolved f That our senators in Congress be instructed, and our representa- 
tives requested, to use all honorable means to secure the immediate grant of 
these lands for the purpose set forth in the preamble to these resolutions. 

Resolved, That the governor be requested to transmit copies of the foregoing

JOINT RESOLUTION ioBtructlDg our senators, and requesting our represeotatlFes in Con-

recruiting and muster-in office for tlie State of Michigan. 

Whereas the President of the United States has issued his proclamation call- 
ing for three hundred thousand men to aid in the suppression of the existing 
rebellion ; 

And whereas every patriotic and loyal citizen of Michigan has a deep interest 
in having the quota assigned to our State filled as speedily as possible ; 

And whereas many of our citizens, preferring the naval branch of the service, 
have made application at the recruiting offices located among us, and failing to 
find the proper officers to receive them, have been compelled to leave Michigan 
in order to be mustered into the naval service, and have been credited upon the 
quotas of other States. We have, therefore, been deprived of the advantages 
granted to our sister States, and compelled to furnish men by drafting to fill the 
place of the men so lost : Therefore — 

Resolved, That our senators in Congress be instructed, and our representa-

CHEROKEE INDIANS. 

MEMORIAL 

OF THE 

PRINCIPAL CHIEF AND OTHERS 

OP THE 

Cherokee Naiiany asking for the payment of interest r Sfc. 



February 2J, 1865. — Referred to the Committee on Indian Affairs and ordered to be printed. 



To the honorable the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States^ 

in Congress assembled: 

The UDclersigned, principal chief aod delegates of the Cherokee Nation, duly 
aathorized and empowered to represent the interests and welfare of the Chpro- 
kee Nation before the government of the United States, beg leave most re- 
spectfully to ask the attention of your honorable bodies to the Condition of the 
Cherokee people, as brought about by the present war. 

It is known that the Cherokee Nation, by their treaties, have placed them- 
selves under " the protection of the United States of America, and of no other 
sovereign whosoever.*' For a long series of years they have prospered under 
that protection, and have made encouraging advances in those forms of ** civ- 
ilization*' which have so distinguished and elevated the people of the United 
States. 

Before the present war, agriculture, stock-raising, and other branches of in- 
dustry, were successfully and profitably pursued by them ; the comforts of life 
had accumulated, and, in many cases, (comparative) wealth had rewarded the 
lab6r and skill of their citizens. And evidence of moral, mental, and religious 
progress was furnished by the presence of their school-houses, printing presses^ 
and churches, all of which were in a more or less prosperous condition; but the 
ravages of war have changed the scene, and spread destitution, bereavementr 
and desolation, like the shadow of death, over all the land. Not a family ha» 
escaped. 

On the abandonment of the frontier posts by the Union forces, the rebel* 
rushed in and seized the country, while the loyal Chcrokees, deprived of the 
protection of the United States, were utterly powerless to resist them, except 
by remonstrance ; but when the Union army arrived in the summer of 1862, 
and our young men : ushc J to that standard by hundreds, the rebels, panic- 
stricken and in haste, fied towards the south. 



2 CHEROKEE INDIANS. 

At that time a small force could have held the conntiy ; but in the moment 
of success a most unfortunate retreat was ordered, by which all the advantages 
that had been gained were thrown awaj, and the whole brigade, including the 
Cherokee and Creek recruits, (upwards of 3,000 men,) were dragged away to 
Fort Scott, in the State of Kansas, leaving the Cherokee country to be reocca- 
pied by the rebels. And that was quickly done ; and the most brutal outrages 
were committed by them on the families of the loyal Cherokees. Many of 
these families, thus exposed, consisting of women, children, and old men, were 
compelled to abandon their homes and property and follow after their husbands, 
sons, and brothers, in the retreating army. 

After a bitter exile of many months several hundreds of these refugees were 
brought back about April, 1863, and nearly all the rest in 1864, but too late in 
the season to raise much of a crop. The sufferings of these people, both while 
in exile and after their return, have been frightful in privation, sickness, and 
death. The survivors of them, however, as well as the general population of 
the nation, are now in the country, and most humbly and earnestly ask of the 
government such protection as will enable them to reoccupy their hemes, pnt 
their laws and institutions into operation, and under the guidance of a kind 
Providence resume afresh their several industrial avocations. And in this view 
we approach your honorable bodies with the most profound deference, and ask 
that those stipulations of our several treaties which are applicable to our present 
circumstances may be patiently reviewed and enforced. 

In order to facilitate such a review we beg leave to refer to a few articles in 
our treaties in which such stipulations are found. 

By the third article of the treaty of Hopewell, November 28, 1785, the 
Cherokees are acknowledged " to be under the protection of the United States 
of America, and of no other sovereign whosoever." 

Article 12th of the same treaty provides " that the Indians may have full 
confidence in the justice of the United States respecting their interests ; thej 
shall have the right to send a deputy of their choice, whenever they think fit, 
to Congress." 

In the second article of the treaty of Holston, July 2, 1791, after tbe 
adoption of the Constitution of the United Slates, "the Cherokees again 
acknowledge themselves * to be under the protection of the United States of 
America, and of no other sovereign whosoever ;' and they also stipulate that 
the said Cherokee Nation will not hold any treaty with any foreign power, in- 
dividual State, or with individuals of any State." In reference to the country 
now occupied by the Cherokee Nation, the fifth article of the treaty of 1835 
provides that — 

" The United States hereby covenant and agree that the lands ceded to the 
Cherokee Nation in the foregoing article shall in no future time, without their 
consent, be included in the territorial limits or jurisdiction of any State or Ter- 
ritory. But they shall secure to the Cherokee Nation the right, by their na- 
tional councils, to make and carry into effect all such laws as they may deem 
necessary for the government and protection of the persons and property, 
within their own country, belonging to their people, or such persons as have 
connected themselves with them." 

By article sixth of the same treaty of 1835, "the United States agree to pro- 
tect the Cherokee Nation from domestic strife and foreign enemies, and against 
intestine wars among the several tribes. They shall also be protected against 
interruption and intrusion from citisens of the United States who may attempt 
to settle in the country without their consent ; and all such persons shall be 
removed from the same by order of the President of the United States." / 

Article first, treaty 1846, provides "that the lands now occupied by the 
Cherokee Nation shall be secured to the whole Cherokee people for their common 
u^e and benefit; and a patent shall be issued for the same, including the eight 



CHEROK££ INDIANS. 6 

liandred thousand acres purchased, together with the outlet west, promised by 
the United States, in conformity with the provisions relating thereto, contained 
in the third article of the treaty of 1835, and in the third section of the act of 
Congress approved May 28, 1830, which authorizes the President of the United 
States, in making exchanges of lands with the Indian tribes, to assure the tribe 
or nation with which the exchange is made, that the United States will forever 
secure and guarantee to them and their heirs or successors the country so ex- 
changed with them; and if they prefer it, that the United States will cause a 
patent or grant to be made and executed to them for the same : Provided alioays, 
that such lands shall revert to the United States if the Indians become extinct, 
or abandon the same." 

In reference to the safe-keeping of the funds of the Cherokee Nation , and 
the payment of the annual interest accruing thereon, the treaty of 1S35, article 
10, provides : " That the President of the United States shall invest in some 
safe and most productive public stocks of the country, for the benefit of the 
whole Cherokee Nation who have removed or shall remove to the lands assigned 
by this treaty to the Cherokee Nation west of the Mississippi, the following 
sums as a permanent fund for the purposes hereinafter specified, and pay over the 
net income of the same annually to such person or persons as shall be author- 
ized or appointed by the Cherokee Nation to receive the same, and their receipt 
shall be a full discharge for the amount paid to them.^ 

The several particulars herein briefly noticed are set forth more forcibly, and 
in more touching detail, in a petition from the Cherokee national council to 
his excellency the President of the United States, under date of January 20, 
1864, a copy of which was laid before Congress, with a memorial from the 
Cherokee delegation, under date of June 14, 1864. Of the matters recited in 
those documents we ask a patient examination. 

And in order that the Cherokee Nation may be enabled to control its own 
means, under its laws and institutions, for the promotion of the interests and 
welfare of their people, in pursuing their wonted avocations, by providing for 
public I " * 



reopening their public schools, and also for meeting the just liabilities of their 
government, we respectfully ask that the interest due on the investments of the 
Cherokee national funds may b<^ appropriated and paid over to the authorities^ 
of the nation, in conformity with the provisions of the article above quoted. 
We have the honor to be, very respectfully, your obedient servants,

MEMORIAL to Congress to attach the following described portion of the Territory of Aii- 
zauu to the Territory of Utah, for governmental purposes : 

Your memorialists, the governor and legislative assembly of the Territory of 
Utah, respectfully represent that the geographical position of the Territory is 
such as to isolate it entirely from navigable waters, and that the inhabitants of 
the Territory at vast expense have made roads in the direction of the Colorado 
river until they have reached the southern boundary of the Territory, and 
working parties are engaged in seeking out and working a road to the head of 
navigation on the Colorado river, through a country mostly uninhabited, and 
deriving its principal value from the fact that it affords a chance of communica- 
tion with the commercial world by way of the Colorado river, which is navigable 
for steamboats to within one hundred and twenty-five miles of the southern set- 
tlements of Utah. The growing int>erest of agriculture, commerce, as well as 
the mineral interests of the Territory, seemingly demand an outlet to products, 
and more ready means of import to encourage the reclamation of the desert; 
and your memorialists, feeling the importance of this object, respectfully peti- 
tion that all that portion of the Territory of Arizona bounded north by the 
thirty-seventh degree of north latitude, west by longitude thirty-eight degrees 
vest from Washington, south by that portion of the thirty-sixth degree of north 
latitude, going between the aforenamed thirty-eighth degree of longitude and the 
centre of the channel of the Colorado river, thence by the centre of the channel 
of the aforenamed Colorado river, southerly, easterly, and northerly to its in- 
tersection with the thirty-seventh degree of north latitude, be attached to the 
Territory of Utah, for all governmental purposes. 

Your early and favorable action on the subject-matter of the above memorial 
is respectfully solicited.

BALTIMORE AND OHIO RAILROAD COMPANY. 



LETTER 



OP 



JOHN W. GARRETT, 

PRESIDENT OP THE 

BALTIMORE AND OHIO RAILROAD COMPANY, 

RELATIVE TO 

House bill No, 768, entitled " An act to facilitate railway communication untk 
the capital of the UniUd States.'* 



February 28, 1865. — Referred to the Committee on Military Affairs and ordered to be printed* 



Sir: The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company was authorized by acts of 
the legislature of Maryland, passed February 22, 1831, and March 9, 1833, to 
build a railroad from a point on its line a few miles distant from the city of Bal- 
timore to the line of the State of Maryland, adjoining the District of Columbia, "im 
a direction towards the city of Washington.*' 

By the acts of Congress of March 2, 1831, and February 25, 1834, it was 
authorized to extend the latter road, already referred to, into the District of 
Columbia. 

It is not necessary to say that when the branch road to Washington was 
originally authorized, and when it was constructed, it was regarded as an enter- 
prise of doubtful profit, and the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company had 
therefore no rivals in its undertaking. 

It so happens that the work thus set on foot and fostered by the State Of 
Maryland and by this company has proved a necessary avenue for intercourse 
with the national capital, and that the rebellion has centred a larger popula- 
tion at the national capital and created a greater travel than existed in times 
of peace. 

The result has been that other roads which have been hitherto obliged to U3e 
this lateral road belonging to the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company, in 
their transfer of passengers to Washington, are anxious to obtain a connectiRg 
line exclusively under their own control. 

And yet, although the term "other roads" is used, it is as well to say that 
the criticism is applicable solely to the Pennsylvania Railroad Company. 

The bill now before the House of Representatives authorizes the Northern 
Central Railway Company and its assigns to construct a road from a point or 
its lind, between the borough of York and the city of Baltimore, to the city of 
Washington. The Northern Central Railway Company is a separate corpora 



2 BALTIMORE AND OHIO RAILROAD COMPANY. 

tion, but the Penneylvania Railroad Company control a majority of its stock, 
appoints its officers, and directs its policy and financial management. A bill, 
therefore, which authorizes the Northern Central Railway Company, or its as- 
signs, to construct the proposed road, is simply and in fact a bill authorizing the 
Pennsylvania Railroad Company to build a road across the State of Maryland. 
This is its plain, practical meaning. Nor is it a novel undertaking. Before the 
rebellion had been one year in progress, an overture was made to this com'ganj 
by a Pennsylvanian, then high in authority to build a road from the Washing- 
ton Junction of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad to the Relay House upon the 
Northern Central Railroad. The only possible object which such a road could 
have accomplished would have been tne advantage which it thus gave to the 
Pennsylvania railroad; and this company refused to accede to the proposition 
because it was in derogation of the authority of the State of Maryland, which 
had not authorized such a route, and was detrimental to the city of Baltimore, 
which would thus have been in a measure isolated from those advantages to 
which it was properly entitled. 

This company having refused to execute a power which it did not possess, it 
is well known that efforts were subsequently made to accomplish the same re- 
sult by other means. It will be borne in mind that in all the plans for an air- 
line road between Washington and New York which have been suggested, the 
Northern Central railroad has been manifestly one of the existing lines which 
it was designed to employ to complete the desired connexion either with Wash- 
ington or with Baltimore. It is due to the force of circumstances only that the 
influences exerted in behalf of the Northern Central Railway Company have 
been content to abandon the project of the connexion with New York vin the 
Central railroad of New Jersey, and to seek only the connexion with Wash- 
ington, which is the object of the bill i*eported from the Military Committee of 
the House of Representatives. The advocates of the measure are well aware 
that if they can succeed in procuring from Congress the authority to construct 
a railway across the State of Maryland, the force of the precedent will enable 
them to press, not only without hesitation, but with the certainty of success, for 
authority from Congress to construct a railroad across any part of the State of 
New Jersey, or of any other State which may be the neeaful theatre of their 
jrailroad enterprises. 

It is not the purpose of this company to discuss the questions of law involved 
in the bill which the Military Committee of the House of Representatives has 
r^orted. Those questions must be discussed by those who represent the State 
<£Kmryhind in Congress, and who are therefore bound by their duty to their 
own people to see that the interest of the State, and the constitutional rights of 
its peopk;, are duly protected. 

It is the province of this company, offering, as its warrant of authority to 
appear before your honorable body, its charter from the State of Maryland and 
under the laws of the United States, to declare not only that the road which it 
is proposed to construct is not required by any military or postal necessity, but 
that if such military and postal necessity existed it coula be manifestly pro- 
vided for in a far better way than by the route authorized in the bill of the 
Military Committee. 

At the outbreak of the rebellion, a single-track railroad between Baltimore 
and Washington, with the necessary sidings, was all which the trade and travel 
with the capital required. It is perfectly well known to the government of the 
United States that, notwithstanding the extraordinary demands made for 
military service between Baltimore and Washington upon this company, what- 
ever was required was promptly performed, even while there were no other 
means at the command of this company than a track and equipment originally 
organized for the purposes of trade and travel in times of peace. While the 
rebellion was actually in progress, and at times trenching upon this very line 



BALTIMORE AND OHIO RAILROAD COMPANY. 6 

of commnnication, this company never ccaaed its efforts to increase the facilities 
which that line afforded. To-day, a double track extends from Baltimore to 
Washington, which is sufficient to supply every demand for the military and 
postal wants of the government and for all the necessities of the people which can 
be made upon it. It is a line owned by this company, but it is not for that 
reason less efficient than a kindred line, owned by another company, would be. 
Nor are there fewer avenues to-day to the national capital than there would 
have been if another company than this had been authorized, at the beginning 
of the rebellion, to construct another single track to Washington, and had thus 
rendered the construction of a second track by this company an unnecessary 
expense. Nor have the approaches to the capital by the route of this company 
been more unsafe during the rebellion than they would have been if the road 
referred to in the bill of the Military Committee had been long since constructed. 
The raids whi€h interrupted communication between Baltimore and Washington 
interrupted communication also between Harrisburg and Baltimore, and between 
Philadelphia and Baltimore, and would equally have interrupted communication 
over any line between the Northern Central railroad and Washington. In a 
military point of view it would seem to be quite certain that a railroad ap- 
proaching the capital by a converging line a short distance from the line of 
this company affords no additional guarantee whatever against interruptions 
horn any enemy strong enough to hieak the line of defence nearest to his point 
of assault. It would oe idle to regard a road which could not be more than a 
few miles distant from the line of this company as being in any way more safe 
from the risk of such an attack. 

But it may well be asked why it is, when the risk of such interruptions in the 
future seems to have disappeared, an enterprise should be set on foot, the pri- 
mary necessity of which would seem to be based only upon some- legitimate 
apprehension of its recurrence. 

This company cannot but think that the reason controlling those out of Con- 
gress who favor the bill reported from the Military Committee is not that they 
think the existing route to Washington is likely to be threatened by the enemy, 
but because they are of opinion that the territory which they wish to occupy 
will not be again invaded, nor their property suffer loss from Uiis reason. 

It is proper that this company should make another criticism upon the bill 
reported from the Military Committee. That bill manifestly contemplates, as 
the additional route which it provides for to the capital, the line of the Pennsyl- 
vania railroad from Pittsburg to Harrisburg, the line of the Northern Central 
railroad from Harrisburg to some point between York and Baltimore, (which 
point is probably much nearer to Baltimore than York,) and a line from such 
terminal point to the city of Washington. The road thus marked out forms 
two sides of a triangle. 

It will be remembered that the Pittsburg and Connellsville Railroad Com- 
pany, chartered in the year 1837, by the legislature of Pennsylvania, was 
authorized by a subsequent act of the legislature of the same State, passed 
April 18, 1853, to continue its line of road to any point in Somerset or Bed- 
ford counties, in that State, so as to connect with other railroads that might be 
constructed. 

The railroad with which it was intended that this connexion should be made 
was the road which the Pittsburg and Connellsville Railroad Company, incor- 
porated also by the legislature of Maryland on April 8, 1853, was authorized to 
build from Cumberland, in Maryland, to a point on the Maryland line where it 
could have been connected with the road authorized by the Pennsylvania act 
of April 18, 1853. 

The laws of Pennsylvania and Maryland, to which this company has referred, 
thus provided for a line of railway between Pittsburg and Cumberland, situated 
on the line of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad. 



4 BALTIMORE AND OHIO RAILROAD COMPANY. 

By an act of the legislature of Maryland, passed May 5, 1853, a company 
was antliorized to build a road from Georgetown, in the District of Columbia, 
to a point on the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, near the Monocacy Junction. 

This company would state, that if a short, direct, interior line to the capital 
is desired, there can be no question that the original line from Pittsburg to Cum- 
berland, thence over the Baltimore and Ohio railroad to the Point of Rocks, or 
some suitable point near the Monocacy Junction, and from such point to the city 
of Washington, constitutes that true, direct, interior line, and that this line would 
furnish an additional military and postal route, seventy miles shorter from Pitts- 
burg and the northwest than any existing route. 

This company was about to give to the Pittsburg and Connellsville Railroad 
Company the assistance which it required to construct the unfinished portion of 
the line between Connellsville and Cumberland, when parties, acting undenia- 
bly in concert with the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, procured, in 1864, the 
repeal of that provision in the Pennsylvania law of April 18, 1853, which au 
thorized the extension of the road from Connellsville to the Pennsylvania line 
The eflfect of this repeal, although the exercise of the power was clearly uncon- 
stitutional, prevented this company from affording the required assistance. 

It is now plain that pne of the purposes in the repeal of the Pennsylvania 
law, alluded to, was to facilitate the application of the Pennsylvania Railroad 
Company for the power which it seeks to exercise under the bill reported from 
the Military Conmiittee. It is perfectly clear that the route sanctioned by this 
bill could bear no comparison with the route which might have been peifected 
if the Pennsylvania Railroad Company had suffered the legislation of its own 
State to remain undisturbed. 

This company, therefore, respectfully suggests that if there be any desire to 
perfect communications between the west and northwest and the capital, all 
that is needful to be done is that the Pennsylvania Railroad Company should 
cease to oppose the exercise, by the Pittsburg and Connellsville Railroad Com- 
pany, of the chartered privilege to which it was entitled ; and this company is 
willing, under the authority of the State of Maryland, to construct an additional 
line from a point between the Monocacy and Harper's Ferry direct to the city 
of Washington. Such a work would constitute a direct line between Pittsburg 
and Washington, inasmuch as it would represent the base line of a triangle, 
whereas the road proposed by the Militaiy Committee represents two sides of 
that triangle. 

This company has observed with satisfaction, and relies upon, the strong pro- 
test made by the legislature of Maryland against the bill proposed by the Mili- 
tary Committee. It cannot but be regarded as singular that the Pennsylvania 
Railroad Company should rely upon its power over the legislature of its own 
State to deprive the Pittsburg and Connellsville Railroad Company of a right 
which might have been exercised to the great advantage of the government and 
people of tlie United States, and should then approach Congress for the purpose 
of defeating and injuring plans of public improvement which are dear to the 
legislature of Maryland, and valuable to the government and people of the 
United States. 

While this company does not pretend to seek for powers the exercise of which 
the State of Maryland does not expressly sanction, it is proper for it to submit 
that, if the power of Congress is to be invoked at all in favor of any route, it 
would seem that the direct route to the capital from the northwest, via Pittsburg, 
Connellsville, and Cumberland, ought to have a superior claim to the exercise 
of such authority. 

I am, with great respect, your obedient servant,

CONSOLIDATION OF THE INDIAN TRIBES. 



PROTEST 

OF TlfE 

CHEROKEE NATION 

AGAINST 

Senate hill 459, entitled ** A bill to provide Jbr the consolidation of the Indian 
tribes, and to establish civil government in the Indian territory** 



March 2, 18G5. — Referred to the Committee on Indian Affairs and ordered to be printed. 



To the honorable the Senate and House of Represen'atives in Congress as- 
sembled : 

The undersigned, principal chief and delegates of the Cherokee nation of 
Indians, beg leave most respectfully to present this our liumble protest against 
the passage of the bill entitled " A bill to provide for the consolidation of the 
Indian tribgs, and to establish civil government in the Indian territory." 

Permit us to ask your kind attention, while we attempt to show why this bill 
should not be adopted. 

But a few years ago— fresh in the recollection of even our young men — the 
Cherokee Nation owned and occupied a country healthful, fruitful, and beautiful, 
eight or nine hundred miles from their present possessions, toward the rising sUn. 

The memories of Chattanooga, Lookout Mountain, Missionary Ridge, Itoss- 
ville, Etowah, Spring Place, Red Clay, Creek Path, and other places, made 
sacred by the graves of our fathers, no less than by the blood of your patriots, 
will in history be associated with the Cherokee people no less than with yours. 

The State of Georgia wanted that country, and determined to have it, regardless 
of right; and she was permitted to triumph, and the Cherokees removed to 
their lands in the west ceded to them under previous treaties, and secured by 
guarantees, resting upon solemn treaty provisions, such as inspired them with the 
fullest confidence that they would never again be molested. This confidence 
was based upon obligations declared to be the supreme law of the land. 

Permit us to quote some of the provisions pertinent to the subject under con- 
sideration, and on which we ground our argument. 

Explanatory of the causes leading to the treaty of 1835, and the removal of 
the Cherokee Nation from their eastern homes to the west, and the cession to 
them of their present country by the United States, the following declaration 
was inserted aa part of the preamble of said treaty of 1835, in justification 
thereof, viz: 
• " Whereas the Cherokees are anxious to make some arrangements with the 

fovemment of the United States whereby the difficulties they have experienced, 
y a residence within the settled parts of the United States, under the jurisdic- 



2 CONSOLIDATION OP THE INDIAN TRIBES. 

tion and laws of the State governments, may be terminated and adjusted ; and 
with the view of reuniting their people in one body, and securing a permanent 
home for themselves and their posterity without the territorial limits of the State 
sovereignties, and where they can establish and enjoy a government of their 
choice, and perpetuate such a state of society as may be most consonant to thdr 
views, habits and condition, and as may tend to dbeir individual comfort and 
their advancement in civilization : 

" Therefore, the following articles of a treaty are agreed upon." 

Here follows the boundary of the country conveyed to the Cherokee Nation 
by the United States, and embraced in the bill pending before your honorable 
bodies. 

Article 3d, treaty of 1835, stipulates that "The United States also agree 
that the lands above ceded, by the treaty of February 14, 1833, including the 
outlet, and those ceded by this treaty, shall all be included in one patent, 
executed to the Cherokee Nation of Indians by the President of the United 
States, according to the act of May 28, 1830." 

Article 5th. "The Ufiited States hereby covenant and agree that the lands 
ceded to the Cherokee Nation in the foregoing article shall in no future time, 
without their consent, be included within the territorial limits or jurisdiction of 
any State or Territory. But they shall secure to the Cherokee Nation the right, 
by their national councils, to make and carry into effect all such laws as ihej 
may deem necessary for the government and protection of the persons and 
property within theur own country belonging to their people, or such persons u 
have connected themselves with them." 

Article Ist of the treaty of 1846 reiterates the foregoing provisions. 

In article 6th, treaty of 1835, the United States "agree to protect the 
Cherokee Nation from aomestic strife and foreign enemies, and against intestine 
wars between the several tribes. They shall also be protected against inter- 
ruption and intrusion from citizens of the United States who may attempt to 
settle in the country without their consent; and all such shall be removed from 
the same by order of the President of the United States." • 

Article 10th, treaty of 1835, provides for the safe-keeping and investment of 
Cherokee moneys by the President of the United States, which moneys shall 
constitute a permanent fund, and the "net income of the same" be paid over hj 
the United States "to such person or persons as shall be authorized or ap- 
pointed by the Cherokee Nation to receive the same, and their receipt shall be a 
riill discharge for the amount paid to them." These funds are expended under 
the direction of the national council, by exact appropriation acts, for the par- 
poses designated in the treaties. 

By the 3d article, treaty of HopeweU, 1785, the Cherokees acknowledge 
themselves to "be under the protection of the United States of America, and 
of no other sovereign whosoever." This obligation, which is a mutual one, i« 
reiterated in treaties of a much later date. We mention it to show the obliga- 
tion arising therefrom — ^that of good faith, alike binding on the part of the pro- 
tected and protector. And permit us here to remark that the Cherokees, having 
placed themselves under the protection of the strong arm of the United States, 
teel justified in expecting ana trusting that all their rights and interests will he 
secure, and their grievances redressed. 

As a consequence growing out of the treaties from which the foregoing ex- 
tracts are taken, under an arrangement with Greneral Scott, who had been 
authorized for that purpose by special instructions from the government, the 
Cherokee Nation, in 1838, emigrated from their eastern homes to the weet. This 
was done under the direction and management of their own officers, appointed 
by their general council, and accountable for the faithful performance of their 
several duties to the Cherokee Nation alone. And the removal was effected iii 
a manner entirely Batisfactory. 



CONSOLIDATION OP THE INDUN TRIBES. 6 

On their arrival west an act of nnion was entered into between them and the 
previons emigrants, and a new government was established; a constitutioi) 
adopted ; the country laid off into eight districts ; and the requisite officers — 
executive, judicial, and legislative — provided for, which, in the executive de- 
partment, were a principal chief, assistant chief, and executive council ; in the 
legislative department, two houses, the committee answering to the senate, the 
council answering to the lower house, and both together constituting the national 
council. In the judiciary department there are judges of the supreme court, 
elected by the legislature for four years, and judges of the circuit and district 
courts, elected, in like manner, for two years. The national treasurer, elected 
by the national council for four vears, executes a bond, with sufficient securities, 
for the faithful performance of t&e duties of his office. In the department of 
education they established, first, their common schools, and, in a few years, one 
male and one female high school, with competent teachers. 

For twenty-two years a kind Providence smiled upon theur humble efforts, 
and greatly blessed and prospered them in all the departments of life. They 
had long become able to provide for the requirements of the advanced social 
condition to which they haa attained. Their young men and women had made 
such proficiency in education as to fit them to conduct with credit the public 
day schools of the country, and some of them were qualified to occupy the 
more honorable and responsible positions 4f instructors in the high schools. 
These schools were all thronged with youths of both sexes, eager for instruction. 
And when we announce that one hundred of our young ladies pursuing the 
higher branches were in attendance at our female seminary when it suspended, 
some idea may be formed of the degree of civilization to which our people had 
attained. 

Competence and comparative wealth had rewarded the enterprise of the 
people, placing all classes above want, and enabling many to adorn and beautify 
their residences with many of the conveniences and even the elegances of the 

g resent day. All classes owned more or less stock, and many counted their 
orses and sheep by hundreds, and some numbered their herds of cattle by 
thousands. In population they were rapidly increasing. 

On the breaking out of the war, in all those unmistakable evidences of na- 
tional prosperity, industry, intelligence, schools, churches, and consequent 
general happiness, the Cherokee Nation had nothing to fear from a comparison 
with some of the States of the American Union. Their experiment at govern 
ment has been a signal success. And with the exception of that one dark spot, 
slavery, which was introduced into their political system by intercourse with 
their surrounding white neighbors, a more liberal, equal, and just government 
does not exist. And be it recorded to the honor of the Gherokees, that they 
were the fii-st to wipe off that dark spot ; and in February, 1863, by their 
national council, forever abolished slavery within the limits of the Cherokee 
Nation. 

The Cherokees have always been faithful to their treaty obligations. In 
peace and in war they have been true to the honor and interests of the United 
States, as their friend and protector. In the war of 1812-13, they acted a 
brave and conspicuous part, under General Jackson. And in the present war 
they have been prompt to answer to the first call, and, with the loyal Greeks, 
have performed efficient and arduous service in recovering from rebel rule 
Missouri, Arkansas, and the Indian territory, and in defending the same. 

To illustrate the loyalty of the Cherokee legislature, we take the liberty to 
transcribe an act of the national council, expeUing from office every disl6yal 
person, and declaring their offices vacant : 



CONSOLIDATION OF THE INDIAN TRIBES, 



*' AN ACT for the removal of disloyal men from office. 

**Be it enacted hy the national council. That all oflScers of the Cherokee Nation, 
in the legislative, judicial, and executive departments, and all other officers 
whatsoever, who are disloyal to the government of the United States and to 
that of the Cherokee Nation, be, and the 8am9 are hereby, removed from office, 
and their respective offices are hereby declared vacant.

" CowSKlx Prairie, Cherokee Nation, February 20, 1863. 

" Concurred in council, February 20, 1863. • 

" SPRING FROG, Speaker Council 
" Wm. M. Scraper, Clerk Council, 

" Approved February 20, 1863. 

"THOS. PEGG, 
" Acting Principal Chiefs 

In conclusion, we appear before your honorable bodies, on behalf of our own 
nation, and of our neighbors andnriends, the loyal Crocks, Seminoles, and 
others, and beg leave most respectfully to repeat our earnest protest against 
the passage of the bill, as a violation of the most important provisions of our 
treaties, and a measure fraught with trouble and wrong and ruin to our people 
and our institutions. And we beg leave respectfully again to ask your honor- 
able bodies that efficient protection may be afforded to our people. And also 
that the interest due on oijr invested funds may be paid to the treasurer of the 
Cherokee Nation, who is authorized to receive the same, as provided for by 
treaty, and that it be not passed by agents into the hands of contractors.
