CH OF Mit, CONWAY ON THB WAR. Mr. Conway, (rep.) of Kausas, said in bis judgment this war had not been conducted with any purpoee of £c. curing triumph to the natioual arms, or the subjugationjor the public enemy. At no stage of its progress had the Executive sought theconquest of the South. His exclu- sive aim had been to restore the constitutional relations of the poople of the seceded States to the government of the Uaion; and this@ko had endeavored to accomplish rather by holding back than marebing forward the armics of the republic jato the epomy's country and putting him down. The l’resident had not seemed to regard hiwself authorized to make war on the slaveholders jf by other methods he could induce t turn tw their atlegi- ance. He had, thorefore, sought to exhaust every other | agency before showing even @ disposition to resort to vigorous action in the ield. Even for bis late proclaina- tion of emancipation he sought justification on the §exciu- Five ground of its absolute necessity to the end of restor ing the Union. To this policy be (Mr Conway) had been strenuously opposed from the commencement of this war. He had regarded it as utterly unsound tn principle, and as calenlated to produce consequences the most dissstrous, He had not regarded the seceded States during the period of elvit, war a8 having any constitational relations what- | ever, Nor had he regarded the leniency and procrastina. tion of the Executive as calculated to have any other t than 16 bring tous and ultimate triumph to He ane no! ‘or of restoring the constitu. aul reimtions of holders to the Union, or of to that end contrary, h forever oppose! to both. He was ik fav ug tt exisied to-day, and ia favor of recognizing the t States aa the American nation, based as they art principle of freedora to all, without distinction of race, color or condition. He believed it to be the manifost deatiny of the American nation to ultimately control the American continent on this principle, He concei therefore, that the trie object of this war was to revol Uonize thas the national government by resolving the North into the nation, and the South into a distinet public Of republican govorament, sation imo in its donee the almost daily arrests by miitary av- thou to the habeas corpus, in the the publio danger then was to oahang to tnduity—on charges of ‘being of America,’ for “having dawned and persons from New Orleans, racterized pan commer tbe President Li coin began the war. drew a graphic picture of tb arming, seizures, and ac conquest of all tho government property and tuo rem- pants of its army in the Southern statex——the rebels, le, boasting that they had commonced the war He asked by what name would history call auch truthloss assaults upoo our government and institutions? They ‘were not called treason, although they might destroy the government ; because treason was bold and took the ba- ward of orime. ‘These attucks were, therefore, not tech- nical treason, just because treason was no skulk or coward.

There was another reason why be wou not accept #0 honorable # compromise, had a member of Mr. Douglas’ Cabinet, at the threat of Southern tieman reboliion. That .

I through oating dirt, I have eaten my pock, and want no more.’ And thus the gentleman ( Richardson) re. Jocted the honorable compromise, divided the democratic party and the Union, and brought on the war. So it was personal dishovor with Messrs. Payne and Richardson to disclaim their principles and assert the opposite in a plat form, but honorable for the republicans to thrust into the © constitution an opposite of & principle just affirmed by the people. Ho then controverted Mr. Vallandigham’s assumption that the basis of the republican organization— the principle that the Territories were free—was u high crime, Referring to the twachings of eminent ai vines of all creeds, jurisis of all ages, and distinguished poets and hterati of aii times.

Having concluded the nvtices of bills, all manner of resolutions Wore ofered, most of thom leyjg over under the rulos. Among the number were resolutions appoint ing special committees to investigate the subject of arbi- teary acreats, aad ancertain whother any judge bas ree fused to grant writs of habeas corpus. Mr. Depew offered a resolution to go into joint ballot on Tuesday next for Sonator, This opens up that ques- tion, and we sball havo ao great dea! of buttouholeing and private caucusing uuti! the question of going into Joint ballot is decided. 1s Question will algo have an ‘important bearing upon the question of adjourning over for a (ew days, to aligw the Speaker an opportunity to ar- range nis committees. An adjourament will bardiy be had until the question of joint batlot on Senator 13 de- cided one way or the other. In reference to the democratic members refusing to serve on committees under Mr. Callicot, it is already as- suming a ridiculous phase, from the tact that up to twelve o'clock Inst night upwards of twenty democratic mem- bers, or more than one third of that side of the House, already made personal applications to Mr. Galhcot for “positions on committees. When we take into consideration there are always members to every Legislature who will ue make persoual application, but stand ready to serve on any committes where they are placed, it reasonable to suppose that more than one half of the d ratic members a. ready to serve on committees arranged by Mf. Callicot. It is also fale to assume that the balance or the party will, by the time the committees are announced, not rise’ in’ their places and decline serving if they are on any decent committee. There was quite a contest in the Assembly over a reso- | lution that the members should be paid in gold or its | equivaleyt, instead of greeubacks aud other paper cur. | j rency. All manner of reasous were given why they | should be paid in gold mstead of the government curren- ey, nany complaining that if they were paid in currevey | they would be unable to get home after the close of the session. Since about all the members are dead. headed by railroads, there ix no point in this argument, | provided they are not detained by their hotel keopers. ‘Tue opponents of the measure took the position that any such action by the Lagislature of the State would have an injurious effect on the currency of the country Ata critical moment, A motion to lay the whole subject | on the table was lost, when the discussion was renewed; | and the question finally rejected by # large vote. so the | members are to be paid in ‘-greonbacks,’ thefname as the soldiers. | ‘The Senate was ia session alt the morning, engaged .. most of the time. considering bills in the Committee of | the Whole.
