Out of the investigation which this reso- Rotion requires, and which the Military Committee has pPlroady vigorously entered upon, it is probable that some PAditional legislation will ariso, limiting and restricting Pho powor of arbitrary arrosts and imprisonment now bxercised by tho War Department and its subordinates.

Payne) was the only with one fe riptenye Bisbrd had protected Union med hy Kentucky and puni the rebels as they deserved. Mr. Consues, (rep.) of Cal., had no desire to take part discussion the morita of General Payne. But he was tired of hearing the Senator from Kentuoky de> nounce the officers of the Union arm: said a word against the rebols or traitors. Mr. Brown, (rep.) of Mo., trusted that, while Senators profeased anxiety to take care of tho credit and honor of . the officers of the government, they would recollect that the question Involved was between difforont officers, The mon who made the report against General Payne wore officers of the government, and were entitled to. just as miueh respect in the discussion as the persons implicated. He (Mr. Brown) said this in behalf of those who had mado the report implicating General Payne, and pre- forring cherges of a very grave nature against him and others, who are accused of speculation and plunder. Mr. Usyontexs, (opp.) of Ind., said he understood Mr, Trombull to say that General Payne wes the only general, with one exception, who protected the Union men in Kontacky. General Meredith, a eilizen of tho State of Indiana, had boen in command at Paducah since the re- moval of General Payne, He wished to ask Mr. Trumbull if General Meredith was the exception. Mr, TruMBULL—I do not recognize the authority of the Senator from Kentucky to interrogate mo as (o the ex- ception made. 1 intended to say, and [believe T did say, that I had been informed that General Payne, with single exception, was the only person who had properly provwcted Union men and punished—espeoially that he Baa dealt properly with traitors, Mr. Hevpricks—The Senator questions my right to ask the question I have asked. Perhaps he has a right to do 80. If he has, then I havea right to question the pro- priety on his part of introducing testimony which can Taise suspicion against a gallant man from the State of Indiana, General Meredoth has seen service in the field. He has done gallant service in battle, and, as I under: stand, he has never made a dollar wrongfully in the war. His conduct m Paducah is commended by officers of the army in their official reports. His name and re} jon as an officer was at least placed in question by the state- thought it my duty to vindicate him from any suspicion that may arise from what the Senator had said. Mr. Poweut replied to the remarks of Mr. Connces, sald that he was weary of hearing mon de- novnce the government and wondered the Senator Kentucky ee, Powell) had nothing ae against rebellion. The fact wastbas the Senator Call- fornia monopolized so much of the time of the Senate in juestion that comes up that there was no necessity for him (Str, Powell) to say any- ing at all. ee fepeeg tos bag est talk nant Ringhod more ea im (Mr. Powell) tl r ete oe genset Hint So ee ecuraiiies ng on every! that came up.

If the Senator from Call. fornia would only keep on iu his own good jon of there was no doubt ho would soon be at least. ° Mr. Coxnms would not violate the proprieties of the United States Senate by indulging in a vulgar tirade with the Senator from Kentucky. The Senator had descended in the opinion of the Senate, and he was willing thas what he (Mr. Powell) had just said should be judged by those who heard it, The might tire of him (Mr. Con: but he would say to the Senator from tucky that his constituents were tired of him (Mr. Powell). He would leave it to the readers of the Congres- sional Globe to discriminate between that Senator and had never had the apprecia- téon shown hin when he was in this body to have the galleries and desks cleared, and to be left empty benches as@n audience. If the Senator: (dr. Powell been sensitive he world often have closed hie addreages in this body and made them very brief. He (Mr. Connecs) would say to the Senator from Kentucky that whenever, in discussions here, be (Mr. Conness) should seo proper to comment upon what was before the Senate he id do 80, and do #o in such a manner as he saw fit and proper.

Mr. Fullorton, in opening the case for the plaintiff, spoke substantially ax follow#:—May the Court ploaso, gentlemen of the jury, the case which I am to’ present to YOu poesowses an extrnordinary cheragter. It Involves the consideration of the circumstances attending tho se- duction of the plaintiff's wife by the defendant undor th® most aggravating circumstances. I venture tho opinion at the outset; thas when you bave heard the evidence you will arrive at the conclusion that social life furnishes no parallel tothe oetwage which has boen inflicted in this instance by the defandant upon my clicnt. His wife kas been seduced *and taken from him, his child rendored worse than motherlass, and his once happy home made desolate. But Iwill mow proceed to’ state the facts and ¢ircumstances connected with this most heartless ease. ‘Tho plaintiff is Mr, Andrew J.

He would not un- dertako to criticize the acts of any of the officers.of the government, his desire being to discover whether there are abuses, and If 90 to-rectify them. Mr. Epes, (opp.) of Ill, said the gentleman had aa- sumed as a fact tbat the persons #0 confined were illegal! arrested and kept there for a long time contrary to law. If the department deserved censure, he was willing K should be censured. There might be some things in the cases not for the courts to pass on. e resolution, as it now read, was a direct censure, although not so intended. Hence he had suggested an amendment. Mr. Kassom, (rep.) of Towa, added his testimony to jely of the investigation e time had arrived when it was duc to the le of this coun. try that Congress should examine into the extent of the power exercised by the secretary of War, especially when, as he knew, an ordor of the President to ¢! Seo. retary of War for a certain thing was met with the re- ply:—"Tshan't do" it;” and when an explanation was asked he was met with the reply:—“I don't propose to argue the question; Iam reeponsil to the President, | and to him alone.”” When a representative of the people ‘was met in thet way it constituted no objection to him that the resolution might be construed to embedy « cen- gure on the Department. He argued the adoption of the resolution for the reaeon that by a general order no in- | formation whatever could be obiained from the War De- partment excoyt'ng from the Secretary himeelf or by his order. If some poor woman has hada son killed, and desires information concerning him, it could not be ob- tained save in the way just mentioned. The committee should inquire bow far the arbitrary habits extend. He would be the first to vote for the exculpation of the Sec- retary if he should be found innocent. The army may tremble under his power as absolute dictator; but Con- has a right to investigate where the |berties of the people are concerned.

He did not know what the defendant’s occupation was (he was a hanger on'at the hotel and did not appear to do anything for a livell hood) and consequently disliked to sce hin in company with his wife. I can’t state what the defondant’s ocou- pation reatly was, but we may be able to show you before the close of this case.

They went to Saratoga on the 3d of August, and the third day after their arrival there Adams came there also. Ho stopped at the same hotel, and took a room ad- joining that, or immediately in the neighborhood, of Mrs. Millspaugh’s. They stopped there some days, when Mrs, Millspaugh suddenly ieft the place in com pany with Adama, and the following day made her appearance in New York.
