Thej"int resolution introduced last Monday by Mr. Julian to prevent further sale of public lands, except as provided for in the pre-emption and homestead laws, came up, the question being oa seconding the previous question.

Ur. Sawy er stated the jfficerahad bte» appdihted before it wai known in* bb part of the Country that there was any breach between,ther AdmintS^stion and Congress, all of them before the aseem-^ bihtg of Coogrees, before 'December 1886.

Mr. Oonnase said that during theseknontte It. waa'already well known here that the- plan was l^ld for the creation of •a neW political party, to be composed' of iWie nbel element of the South, and that permns of Alabama were then superintending the orgabixation.

Mr. Sawyer was aware that certain men in the Sooth who ought not to bavqlnfluence with the Administration, did obtain such influence, but he*1id not regard that as a reaso.n "why discriminationshould be made against the particular class, whll# there were others' no more wofthy or loyal who Were drawing'pay from the Government, beeanse the nature Of their office happens not to require they should take tboiast oatb-.

Mr. Nye said if the officers in question were as 'capab'e as represented by the Senator from S-uth Carolina (Sawyer) they knew at the time they took' the office* they d'd bo in violation of law.

Mr Sawyer replied the test oath was ntft iimbediately published in the S. uth. -erf States, in etidence of which he Sutid, h6 had never seen it before it was ^re^ sen ted to him for bis signature.

Mr. FessendHn raid, on- a former ocfek* sion, while a member of the Committee on Finande, he had reported a bill for relief of these offie»rs, arid be was in faVor of the paeimge of stich a bill the appoint' menu had beeA. made before there wait anything more than a vague fear ofidiftwenee-- between- the President and Con-' giaws ia regard to reconstruction, and had been made with the general assent of Cabinet-, officers had performed duties jand tbey ought to be paid.

Mr. Harlan confirmed the statement that the Cabinet'had concurred with the President in the vjew that it was the duty of the Secretary,of the Treasury to enforce the reVenue laws in Southern States,, because it was for the interest of the country, at large that the people of these States should bear their share of thepublio burthens, and that if the officers to be appointed o6uld not be paid under existing laws, Congress would net hesitate to authorizi their payment.

Mr. Sawyer -remarked* that the gov-1 ernment could hardly say it was wrong to pay those officers because they had acted without authority of law, after hav* fhg Confirmed (heir official acts and taken the benefit of them.

Mr. &owe thought a pretty good case 'ftad been made out in favor of. the government paying rebels .when it had em ploythem, but did not think the claim of such officers to be. paid furtl^eir labor any more equitable than the claim ot loyal citiz ins, like Sue Murphy, to be paid for her property taken by the" govern^ ment.

Mr. Haadricka-aaid that as no Senator who bad individually employed a man t«t, do a certain wa(k^/«i^|3|^ceivjd the benfit of his labor, 0S«1d, witin fit tHsbqnar, «poi any. tochoieal ground, refuse to pay hitc, .bo the U.5, Gfoveriypent oowld not hofiorably or honestly 'reru^e to pay officefrt %lio,bad- been employed by it and hadiperformed tbeir'dnttos.

Mr. Edmundsv tbougbt~\he most .important feature in the case was, the ac-1' know lodged fact that the Secretary of tb£' Treasury, wittrth'* assent of. other mem bera'of the Cabinet and the President, had.^iherataly violated a l^w of C05-
