Mr. WILSON. I desire now to take up another very important resolution, which will take but a moment, and for the want of which there is great suffering in the country. We passed it ill a month ago which has stopped entirely the whole matter of bounty pertaining to colored persons; the HoRep made a mistake in it, and they iave corrected it. I should like to put that resolution on its passage. It is very important and there is a great deal of complaint about it. I move to take up the House jtresolution No. 176. The motion was agreed to; and the Senate, as in ComWhole. proceeded to consider the JtResolution (H.R.No. 176) amendatory of a JtResolution entitled “A resolution respecting bounties to colored soldiers, and the pensions, bounties, and allowances to their heirs, ” approved June 15, 1866. The ComMilAffrs reported the resolution with amendments. The 1st amendment was to strike out all after the enacting clause of section 2 down to and including the words “ U.S., ” in line 9 of section 3, as follows: That whenever application shall he madeby any claimant for bounty underthe provisionsof the JtResolutionaforesaid.through any attorneyor agent. the postoffice addressof the claimant shall be furnished. giving the nameof the county and State in which it is situated and the amount of commission or feewhich the attorneyor agent is to receivefor his servicein the settlementof the claim. which charges in no caseshiill exceed thesum of live dollars; and every such application shall be accompaniedby the written affidavit of the attorneyoragent. that he has not charmed.nor agreedfor. and will notaccept.more than such sum of 5 dollars for his servicesin the case.
