WASHINGTON. Congressional Declaration onthe Subject of Peace Negotiations. The Unconditional Submission of the Rebels Required. Repeal of the Duty on Paper by the House. Inquiry Into the Difficulty Between Messrs. Field and Kelley. rouble Between Bir. Brooks and s General Butler. The Exchange of Prisoners of War Placed in General Grant's Hands, &., &e., &e, Wasumcron, Jan. 23, 1865. OPPOSITION OF THE RADICALS TO THE PEACE MOVEMENTS. The opposition of the radical republicans to the peace movements of Mr. Blair and others cropped out in tho ‘Seriate to-day, in the resolution of Mr. Clark denouncing allsuch advances towards peace and reunion until the ebels lay down their arms aud sue for mercy. This op- position has been gaining hoadway for several days past, and {ts manifestation in the Senate now ts Caused by the increasing apprehension that Something may grow out of these reports, which were at first regarded as mersly ornamental attempts at diplo- macy. It isin the nature of a notice to the President and Cabinet of what is expected of them by the more radieal portion of the party. It is not probable that this movement will produce any more s>rious effect upon the Prosident than the private admonitions from the same parties with which he has been favored since Mr. Blair's second departure. Action was not pressed upon the resolutions to-day, and it is not probable that they can pasé, even in the Senate, an‘l certainly they could not in the House, Senators Harlan and Wade are urging a rojettion of all peace measures, and even oppose an ex- chango of prisoners, and advocate a vigorous prosecution of the war and retaliatory measures as an offset to the ‘Ddarbarity displayed by the rebels in their treatment of Union prisoners. RUMORED RESIGNATION OF SEORETARY FRSSENDEN. It was currently reported here to-day that Mr. Fessen den was to resign immediately, in order that a successor might be appointed, and the tinanolal policy of the gov- ‘ernment for the next fiscal year be marked out, and the necessary legislation be adopted, before the termination -of the prasent Congress, Inquiry, however, has failed to ‘elicit any confirmation of this rumor, 4 GENERAL EXCHANGE OF PRISONERS TO BE EF- FROTED—THE WHOLE MATTER IN THE HANDS OF GBNERAL GRANT. Tt.appoars from a communication of the Secretary of ‘War that the entire sub/cct of an exchange of prisoners is now placed in the hands of Lieutenant Geueral Grant, and-that, although only partial exchanges have thus far been made, there is reason to believe a full exchange will 8008 be eff_cted. ‘THE CORRESPONDENCE IN REFERENCE TO THE EX- CHANGE OF PRISONERS OF WAR. ‘Tho fecrotary of War sent the following lettor te the ‘Speaker, which was referred to the Committee on Military War Derartuent, Wasumnaton, Jan, 2), 1865, answer to the resolution of the House of Re- Presentatives of the 21st of December, calling for the cor- Fespondence in reference to the exchange of prisoners, have honor to sabmit herewith the report of the Adjatant General, together with euch communications ‘upon the subject as have not heretore been published. 4 ndence of General Butler detatls the action exchange of prisoners under the authority “001 him by order of the War Department.

HeMmocrous petitions from army and government ~ omployes for increased compensation are having a visi- ble effect. Thousands of names were presented in the Senate today. Ono result was the introduc. tion, by Mr, Wilson, of Dill to raise tho commutation price of rations for officers in the field from thirty to fifty cents, and proposing to pay all voluntecr officers who remain in the service to the end of the war three months’ additional salary when mustered out. POLITICIANS FLOCKING TO WASHINGTON. A large number of politicians, coming from all parts of the country, have arrived hero to-night. It is evident that some important political movements are on foot.

INCREAE OF PAY WANTED. Petitions for an increase of the pay of army officers and clerks in the government service were presented by Messrs. Howaup, Witsox and Scvmvar, and were appro- priately referred, INCREASING THB PAY OF OFFICERS IN THE FIELD. Mr. Witsox, (rep.) of Mass., introduced a bill, entitled 9 ores increase the compensation of certain officers in @ field. ‘The first section provides that the commutation price of rations to all officers below and including brovet briga- dier goncrals, shall be fifty cents after the 1st of March, instead of thirty cents, a8 at present; but this shall not apply to oflicers who are entitled to commutation for quarters ar to officers of the Veteran corps, ‘The second section relieves all oflicers of the army and navy from the payment of the income tax. ‘The third section provides that every ofleer who re- mains in the service, except those of the Veteran Re- serve corps and those on detached duty, who get commu- tation for quarters, shall, at the close Of the war, bo en- titled to three months’ pay on being honorably mustered out of the service. This applies to volunteer officers only. ‘The Dill was referred to the Committee on Military Affairs, THE DEFICIENCY AYPROPTIATION BILL—THR PAY OF GOVERN- MEAT EMPLOY, . Mr. Suenman, (rep.) of Ohio, from the Finance Commi tee, reported that the committee of conference on the De- ficiency bill had been unable to agree, and moved that the Senate further insist upon its amendments, and ap- point another committee. The subject of disagreement was, Mr. Sherman caid,.that tho House insisted upon thirty thousand dollars being added to the bill for in- creased compensation to its employés. Mr, Sherman ex- plained that the House could not legally grant this increase, and even on other grounds it could not be jus- tifled. If the pay of employés of the House was increased, that of other officers in th¢ olvil service must be increased also, The Sonate could not increase the pay of civil officers while it refused an increase to arm; rs.” If any incrcase was made, it ought to be to those who had suffered and endured hardships and privations in the army. Mr. McDovcarn, (opp.) of Cal., argued in favor of in- creasing the compensation, He thought’ it unwise to refuse to increase the pay of one class of persons because the increase could not be extended to others. Mr. TruMRUL, (rep.) of lil., hoped the Senate would bo unapimous in concurring in the recommendation of Mr. Sherman. Mr. Davis, (opp.) of Ky., hoped that tho Senate would not only agree to the increase asked by the House, but would increase the compensation of Senators and Repre- sensatives. He thought Congressmen were the most poorly compensated men in the service of the govern- ment. He was in favor of the increase of eed ad of the employés of the House, because they undoubtedly necded ths money. He was {in favor of the increase of the pay of Senators because he needsd the money himeelf, and oughtto have it, ‘Le depreciation of the currency had red 1ced the salar’es of Congressmen a hundred pcr cent, ani the compensation in consequence was not suflicient. Mr. Moroan, (rep.) of N. Y., sald that in order to text the sense of the Senate on this’qrestion of increased pay he would «all for the yeas and nays on agreoing to the propos ton of Mr. Sherman that the Senate refuse to accede t2 th. proposition tor au increase, e yeas and nays were tuken with the foHowing re- sult:—Yeas 26, nays 1—Mr. McDongall.

ENLISTMENTS IX THK NAVAL SPRVICE, The Cram presented a communication from the Secre- tary of War, in reply to the Senate re olution of January 5, asking Information aa to the nomborof men enlisted in the naval service of the United States that have been credited on the military quotes of the respective States, lt appears, on the author’ the Provost Marehal General, that the number of such credits was 67,687. ‘This includes all naval enlistments from April 17, 1561, to Febrnary 24, 1864. ‘The principle was to crodit these men, as required by the act, to their places of residence, so far as was practl- cable to do so, and according to the rules governing in crediting men eulist-d in the army. Commissioners were appoluted by the Secretary of War to collect the root necessary to determine the legality of the claims. % mm this proof the credits were allowed. The evideves taken was procured by official certificate from the Nav; Department in Washington, from the commanding off ¢ ra of receiving ships and naval rendezvous, and by affi- davits and certificates of supervisors of towns and conn- ties, and other data deemed reliable. The commissioners were instructed that the States in which the enlistments had been made would be entitled to credits therefor, un. Jogs it should appear by more direct evidence that they belonged elsewhere. THE CONFISCATION ACT. Mr. TrumeuLs gave notice that on to-morrow he would call up the resolution explanatory of the Confiscat'on bill and should move an amendment striking out that part it which limits the confiscation of reai estate to the life of an individual. Mr. Sumxen, (rep) of Masa., said this provision was al- ready incorporated in the Froedinan’s bill, which would be acted upon in a few days.

Wape said ho did not feel now like postponement, inasmuch as the Senator from Indiana had made all the speech that could be made on the subject. Retaliation had been succcssfai before in the war, The rebels had placed our men under the fire of our batteries; and they were compelied to desist from this when we ro- u taliated, by exposin ir men in a similar way.

THE DIPRICUCTY RETWERN MPSSRA, FIELD, OF LOUIMANA, AND KELLEY, OF °K NSYLV ASIA. Mr. Soarsck rose to a question of privilege, and offered a preamble setting forth that A. P. Field, 'in the Ian uage of int midation amd bullying, bad attemptod to faterfere with William D, Kelley, at mbcr of Congresa from Pennsylvania, in his rights and cutics as a mem- ber in voting on a pending subject of legislation, and had followed up such tntimidation and bullying by an aseault upon the person of the said Williani D. Kelley, thos comtnitting a breach of the privileges of the House; therefore, Resolved, That a select committes of five members bo apro.nted by Use Hpeaker to inquire into Us nd have the power U0 send for persona and papers; and that they in quire what courve iL is proper to take to protect the rights and Privileges of free legislation of the House, Mr. S.wexck caveed to be read an sccount of the as sault and the circnmetunces attending it from a news paper. PET rannswouta offered af amendment That, until the report of the commitiee shall be made, A, I’. Ficld be excluded from the privileges of the floor, It was known that Field was here awaiting action on his case as a meinber elect from Louisiana, and that a resojution had parsed giving him the priv.loge of the floor pending an examination of the subject Mr. Moouitean, (rep.) of Pa., said, while he would vote to prote:t the House in all ite rights, he disliked to aak for ® committee to investigate so grow an outrage, He would be content with the amendment just offered, to excinde Mr, Field from the privilege of the floor. This should be done promptly and unanimously, as ho did not th nk gentlemen here wished to be associated with & man guilty of such an outrage az had been committed ‘on his colleague. Mr. Screvcx said in drawing up his resolution be had not seen or heard from Judge Kelley, and knew nothing of tho circumstances of the assault unt'l he saw newspaper report eo them. In that resolution he did not speak of Mr. Field having been admitted to the floor of tho House. Neither Judge Field nor Judgo Kelley was of the least ible consequence in this con- nection, as compared with the question which un- derlaid this entire proceeding. He wanted to see whether any citizen should undertake to intimidate or prevent a free exercise of Judgment by a Membor of Congress, He referred to the action of the House in 1831 and 1832, when Sam Houston, an ex-momber, made an attack upon Mr. Stansberry, @ member of the House, and the vindication of free apeech and legislation by the repri- manding of Mr. Houston, and this, too, when the House contained a large majority of the democratic friends of Mr. Houston, Mr. Cox, (opp.) of Ohio, said there wae no one who did not betiove that this was a question of pri; ilrg, and the action proposed was proper to vindicate the dignity and rights of the House; but to exclude Mr. Field from the Hioor of the House was to prejudge the case, Let us aecertain by investigation what grievanc® there is, Cer. tainly the man who is implicated should be heart, The ainendment pending Went on the principle that the man ix guilty, As for hitaself, he was physically able to de- fend himself (iaughter); but it might not be so with others. The tleman from Pittebury ie. Moorhead), having ® ponderous form and all the ability for defence, did not feel for others differently circumstanced, (Laugh: tor. itr Twaver, (rep.) of Pa., said in Mr. Houston's case, iromed aiely on a commun 'eation being presented from Mr. Stansb’rry, who was & member from Ohio, Mr. Vance, from the came State, offered a resolution dirreting the Spoaker to ieee warrants to the Sergeant-at-Arme to take into custody wherever found the body of Sem Houston, and keep him subject to the further order and direction of the House, The resolution was aes by a large majority, and Mr. Tlouston was accordingly taken into custody to answer to a contemplated breach of the priviloges of the House. So at the second sestion of the Twenty-third Congress, when Jobn Ewing was assaulted by John H. Lane, a Heutenant in tho navy, this House asserted ite Jurisdiction by ite mode of proceeding in the on_a simple communication the question on which the House was called to act was where a Sacie breach of privilege was shown to the House, the House will proceed to arrest tho offeudor and pring Ulun o the bar of the House, There conld be no higher breach of privilege than an assault on a ga! the ose for his ‘oflicial conduet. ir. understand ‘would vote nn his punishment? you to gay you Mr. ¥4R—No; but I would vote for the amendment on the ground that where there is a prima facie case out, the man is not fit to come into the House while he rests under the (9.

Houston, appears, was brought to the bar, and questions were put to him touching his admise{on or denial of the charge ba oy him, and after he was withdrawn the committee, the head of which was Mr. Davis, of Reaches, Fecommended what further the House should do.

In the case now pending he roduced the narrative of sworn testimony. © r Mr. Fansewonrm said thut as to Mr, Field he was merely admitted to the floor as a matter of courtesy, and it was manifestly proper that the privilege should be withdrawn until’ after an investigation, The attack on Judge Kelley being #0 unprovoked, tt was due to dignity and propricty that the aggressor should be denied the pri- vilege of th Mr. Cox said Field wae more entitled to the floor than Houston had been, because Houston's Congressional term had expired and Field was endeavoring to bo admitted. ae ., said grave charges which he expected man, they pro- @ extended to the meanest 1g prevent during the discussion of bis guilt or innocence, The amendnient to exclude him, if adopted, would assimilate this hall to a Star Chamber.

He ( baw the whole proceeding. ‘The at tack was cowardly, dastardly and infame.s. Judgo Kelley took care of himself amply, though having his as- sajiant ata disadvantage, x said he made no charge of that kind. s said he gentleman bad made # jocular inti- mution about one's defonding himself. Mr. Cox said that he had reference to his own physical diaabillty. Mr. Myane said he undorstood the comic part of the gentleman’s remarks, In conchision, he said he hoped that Mr. Field would at onee be excluded from the privi- loges of the floor. Mr. Hanninwron, (opp.) of Ind., said for one he was op- posed to the amendment, ag there was no evidence betoro the House, except of a ‘police report, that a violation of tho pri; ileg.a of the House had bom commitiod. While he would punish violations of privileges, he would notex- clude the accused, because it was unwarranted and «on- trary to every principle of investigation. If Judge Kel- ley did use such language as wes represented, Field ought to have resented It. If Judge Kelley lind used out- side the languago he lad used here to insult members, then the chasiisement was just, Ho did not, however, know the facts in the case. Mr. Tuaver rogretted that the gentloman from Indiana Lad put « hypothetical cuse reflecting on the ebararter of the gentleman {njured rather than on that of the ag greaior. Mr. Townsenp, (opp.) of N. Y., thought that something wae due to the representative character of Mr, Field, and Suggested a substitute for the amendment, which Mr. Farnsworth accepted, namely :— ntil the report of the committer shall bo made the extended to A.

It eeemed to the Chair not improper that a person ‘who had been el here aga gold robber should inquire if this charge was correctly reported, and whether there ‘was not some explanation or qualifation of it; and the language of the note did not scem offensive. Language something like this might have been used by those reoog- nizing duelling. If the letter wes clearly intended as in- viting a settlement of the matier by what is called the code of honor, but which the Chair regarded as the code of murder, he (the Chair) would have ruled differently ; but as it was susceptible of a different construction, he decided that it was not a question of privilege. Mr. Brooxs led from the decision of the Chair. If Lo had said the object was to aacertain whether he had been correctly reporied or not he would have found out at the office of the Congressional Globe or of its re- porters.

Mr. Goocu—If General Butler had taken money while in command ut Now Orleans and lad not reporied the fact to the government, but attempted to conceal it, he mitted a wrong; ‘but if he has not done this, the geutloman from New York, in calling General Butler a “gold robber," has done wrong. It scems to me that the gentleman is the last man who would not receive a nots from a gentleman whom he charged with beiug a gold robber because he thinks he cau shelter himself behind his Congressional privileges, Mr. Brooxs—Has ho the gold or not ? Mr. Goocu—He had the gold ready to respond. Mr. Brooks asked whether a major genoral who takes by foree fifty thousand doliare in gold from another man and keeps it is nota robber. He thooght after these st menis the House could judge whether or not he was right. If General Builer or his friends were dissatisfied th the charge, all they could do was to ask for a com mittee of investigation and not send a letter in order to draw him into’ a controversy. He maintained that he bad been fully justified in using the adjective against him. He then proceeded to state what was known to other generals, involving General Butler in common speculation. In conchision, he said:—So help me God! Thave no party object in acontroversy like this, Whon I made the remarks to which exception has been taken General Butler was iu full command; and now, whon he seems to have fallen, I would not’ have thus spoken, had he not provoked me toit, With my pen I will fuily respond. “But here, on the floor of the in the presence of the country, Tadd the House, an proclaim the charge and the ground Of which I made it, Mr. Stevexs—We have heard to-day about the privi- loges of this House. Members decent, decorous and. re. spectable in their behavior have been assailed; but there is another privilege, injurious and dangerous to the country, and that is the priviloge of members rising in their places and in a vindictive, malicious, outrageous and indecent manner scatter their filth aud slander on the great men and patriots of the nation, and then shirk from responsibility and shield themselves from answer- ing b caus» they are members ou this floor. his “privi lege’ is a shameful abuse, and ought to reco on the head of any man who practices it; and here they stand under tho shieid of privilege and send forth charges to damn aud blast the most cminent meo. The gentleman from.New York said he did it from revengeful motives, provoked by a letter whieh he received. I have no doubt of it. Ido not blame the gentleman so much as 1 do those around him.
