Feb. 1.—Mr. Randolph, of Hudson | tion: | CONFEDERATES county, introduced important jeint t in the State Senate this afternoon, which may be regarded as expressing the sentiments of the Legislature, and will no donbt be adopted They solemnly protest against the war beinz waged for any unconstitutional or partizan purposes: against a warof subjugation, with the view of reducing the insurgent territorial condition; against proclamations under the plea of mili necessity, by which persons in the States or Territories sustaining the Federal Government, and beyond the ne- cessary military lines, are subjected to the rig- orous severity of military laws; against all ar- bitrary arrests and the suspension of the writ of babeas corpus in the Statvs and Territories sustaining the Federal Government; sgaiust the creation of new States by a division of ex- isting ones; against the confiscation and seizure of property without judicial process; against the powcr assumeg in the proclamation of the President, and by which slaves are set free agaimst every exercise of power upon the part of the Federal Government not clearly given and expressed in the Constitution. While New Jersey has promptly yielded to the calls of the Government, it lias been out of no lurking an- imosity to the South, nor with a dispesition to deprive her people of their rights or property, but simply to assist in maintaining the Federal Constitution. Atno time has she not been wil- ling to terminate the war peacefully and hon- orebly. The concluding resolution deems the suggesting of plans for peace inexpedieat un- Jess some acsurances are given that such plans and efforts would not be miscpnstrued, bul be accepted by the South as a means of settlement honorable alike to both contending parties.

The News of the Chariesten Eight at Tre Duty on Paren.— Yesterday the House of Representatives at Harrisburg passed ibe Senate joint resoluuon, instructing oar Senators and Representatives in Washington +o cast their votes in favor of the repeal of the duty on paper. We have heretofore expressed our opinion of the merits of this action on the | Part, not only of our own Legislature, but also of suniliar bodes in other States. Opposition to the repeal has been manifested only by the ; combination of paper extortionists, who, to fill their own pockets, do not hesitate to take avy step, however unpalatatfle or injurions it may be tothe public. Members of Congress, how- ever, preciate their sordid, selfish views, and will thwari their designs. ' The Secretary of the Treasury, in to an inquiry of the Senate, has added his tes. umony in favor of the repeal of the duty as mieasure Which will considerably increase the revenue of the Government. With such overwhelming and unanimous opposition as the combination has received, it is strange it has @udacity to persevere in its projects.—Phil.
