S _ WASHIN Senatorial Debate in Relation to Cap- ‘tured aud Abandoned Property. Ine aue A Further Reduct’on of the Milltary Establishment Proposed. "ne President’s Reasons for Re- moving Secretary Stanton. Wasurxctoy, Dec, 12, 1861, 11 o'Clock P.M, Sesator Wilkon’s Views Relative to the Vire ginia Convention, Senator Wilson bas returned from Richmond, He ‘visited the radical State Convention in session there, and expresses himself satisfied that the delegates will pursue a prudent and omperate course in framing ® comstitu- tion for Virginia It seems this bas become necessary, we the outside pressure is very great, Advice from Northern sources deprecating all legislation of an ex- treme character has not been wanting, and with the evi- dence before them of a powerful opposition being con- ceutrated in the State agaimet the adoption of a radical ‘eonstitation, it is expected that even the implacable Honnicutt will be forced to assume a more gentle de- meanor. Tho Senator denies the report that he was refused admission to the Conservative Convention, Those who sought to be admiited were required to pro- vide themselves with tickets, but meither he nor his friends looked for the privilege and thought it in bower taste to renain away. Souator Drake’s Polltien! Record. Senator Drake, when his resolutton censoring the President came up, roee to a personal explanation in the Senate to-day, and im endeavoring to rid himseif of the charge of being an extreme pro-slavery demagogue, made matiers worse for himself by admitting that he voted for am amendment in th> Missouri Legislature which re-ensiaved all Che free negrecs coming into the Blate alter tne year 19¢7. Reverdy Johnson took Mr. Drake in hand, and showed the inconsutency of the gentieman’s course tn polities, while at the same time he made avery oyasterly deiemee of the President Apart from whi er may bave been charged acainst Senator Drake, there is no questioning the fact that, after General Lyon captured Camp Jackson, near St Louis, Mr. Drake delivered an oration in which he de- etared (bat the time bad arrived to drive Lincoln’s hire- Bngs from the soil of Virgima, Tue House Committee on Ordnance. Tho Ordnance Committee he! meeting this morning and oxamined General Ramsey, at one time daring the wer acting as Chief of O:dnance, also ap inventor of a projectile, This committee wili meet at diferent times ‘@@ witnesses appear, in order to investigate the charges of maladmipistration in the ordnance departments of ‘the army and navy. ‘Some startling rovelations are amicipated, In the testimony taken to-day it was stated ‘that the Abeterdum projectile, though condemned by a board of examiners, was afterwards purchased in quan- tities amounting to $200,000 by the War Department and ‘Mever used. This, it is considered, shows in th Leet an extravagant and unnecessary ontlay, which it is the eject of these investizations fully to unravel and bring to light, ‘The President’s Rease: r Remeving Sec- retary Stanton. ‘The President sent to the Senate to-day a message giving bis reasons for the suspension.of Hon, Kdwio M. ‘Stanton as Secretary of War on the 12th of Augast Inet. A copy of the message cannot now be procured for pub- Beation, nor was the document read in open Senate; Dut the following, it is believed, are the essential points ef the document :—* It will be recoliected that tho President, for considera- ons of a bigh character, requested Secrotary Stanton 10 resign bis office, and tbat Mr. Stanton, in reply, quoting the phrase of the President, said thai “cont ions of a higher characier” alone bad in- @uced him to continue at the head of the department, constrained him not to rezign the office of necretary of War before the pext meeting of Congress. This, the ‘Premdeot says, was not merely a declination of compli- ance with tue request for His resignation, but was a deli ‘ance Whatever propriety there mignt be in the expres- ston of bis opinions to others, one Lning was certain- it was offic'al misconduct, to say tho least of it, to parade thom befgre his supertor officer, and suowed a want of proper respect and dignity for rhe Presitent, Ia addition wo the above recited ground of the Secro tary why be did not resign, he denied he President's Fight \o remove him. Bui the President says that under ton’s sens: of duty he could not refer to te eating the War Department, for that confers on the Presideat the mght to remove the head of the de- partment = The onty o' her jaw under which Me, Stanton ovuld plead oxteoustion of bis conduct was that in re- lation to the tenure of office.

Ic will be recollected that during the sammer of 1865 General Baird tetegraphed from New Orieaus to tary o: War that sembie, and that the covernor aud city thinking it was an unlawtul assembly, break it ‘Tho General asked the Secretary for instruction: jographed Stanion did not ho @red order, nor did the fact of th ception of the despatch to the President, who eo until ten days after it upul aier the had occurred. nt thereloro takes Ground that Mr, Si responsible for delin- quency, end that if be (the President) bad known that Geoeral Baird had fought advice the riot might have Deen preveuted, The President holds that, so far as the public inseresis are coucerned, there i no cause to re.

ToE 6 MESAQR—MR. DRAKE'S RESOLUTION OF oExs . The Senate then took up Mr. Drake's resolution con- demping the Janguage of certain portions of the Presi- dent's Message, Mr. Jounsosgpreceeded to discuss it at length, replying to the assertion that no sovereign rights exisied in any State of the Union, but that the supreme power was vested in the United States government alone; bo said a reference to the Convention waich had framed the con- stitution would show the policy of that argument, aud he detailed tne circumstances which caused the {orma- ‘Yen of the constitution and its avoption, The Supreme Coart of the United States bad always held that certain rights did imbue in the rtates, Chief Justice Marshall, 4 his opinion of the matter of the United States Bank, holding ia precise terms avd denouncil the contrary doctrine as fatal to the object of the re of the constitution, was referrd to, The Senator from Missouri (Mr, Drake) surely agreed that there were sock mghis, since he bas been a member of the State Convention of Missouri, which framed a constitution claiming rghts which for their ex- Wwtence required sovereignty in the most absolute sense— ‘andertaking to step between ministers of the Gospel and th Feige of Lbeir holy funciions, demanding an oath frow them aa a preliminary cendition, to which, in the spirit of the martyra, they had refused to submit, Mr. Draxs interrupied Mr, Johnson to say in that convention be had 9; terred to with ail hs might. his efforts, Mr, Jonson gaid that fact did not affect the purpose for whieh he bad referred to the maiter—namely, that that State exercised sovereign and independent powers.

He had vetoed the reconstruction measures, as he hada nghbt to do, alleging that they conflicted’ with the rights of citizens and of States, Con: haa that x the provision re- b was adopted in spite of tions of Congress that he would not execute those laws.

Mr. Jounson—I learn that for the first time, The reading of the Senator from Missouri-bas been more eflective than mine has besn, if that is so. Mr Daas —Does thesenator remember his proclama- tion in regard to puiliticauon? . Mr. Jouxson—Perfectly. }ir Drake said that was what he roferred to. ‘Mr, Jonxron retoried that he also remembered Jack- son's vero of the Untied States Bank bill and bis protest against the authority of sho United States Senate to cen. sure nvm for an act.done by him, and the clerk read the protest, at Mr. Johnson's request. He asked if that was in accordance with the Senator's views of constitutional docirine ? It certainly was im conihct with his resola- tion, stitutionatity of President Jackson’s view, whil tribunal im the Inud would support the acts of Con, im’ question ag constitutional. The iately rebellious Ltates bad been forced to submit to the absolute will of Congress. Mr. Johnson severely denounced the lan- guage dent and his M as Congress by any President. Aliuding again to the rebuke of Congress by President Jackson, he said Sena- tors should take warning by the fate of that attempt to censure him. He had sead the rerolution of censure offered by Mr. Clayton the 28th of 18%, and pawed oe of .hirty-six to twenty, cousid- ‘eration mm the December previous. Also another resoiution, introduced by Mr. Benton Jane 16, 1837, expunging the former from the journal afier (Mr. Jobn- son said) the people bad in @ marked manner con- detrned the course of the Senate, The Senator from Missouri (Vr, Drake) should beware lest his resolution should, if now passed, at some future time meet a simi- lar late, Recent elections showed the current of popu- lar feel ng, and he warned them shat such legislation would be overwhelmingly rebuked.
