last fall that they will leave them at the Stacey House
this evening, or by o'clock tomorrow morning, they
will be taken to Camp Dennson for the use Of our Vol

1t would look much better If the Wide
Awakes were in the Camp in propyia persona,
with their oil cloth capes on their own shoulders
They were exceedingly expert last fall in their

quired, ah ould have been the first to respond to
the call. for volunteers. But the Democrats
we're ahead Of them in every locality. There is,
however, still an opportunity, and the Wide.
Awakes should promptly respond to the call Of
the Government for three years men. They
should stand by the President of their own
choice. sqas ig-

In the Italian Perliament sitting at Turin, q

bill in regard to the form under which the name
of vrcroR EMANUEL, as King of Italy, should
head public deeds and, ,dpcuments.r An qbjec.on !,
was made to the use Of the words "Dsi Cfa''as

Another question also arose as to the h'ng

1924, reigned from 1902 to- 1891 as King OF sar'

objected in the Italian Parliament to the later
assumption Of the title, as King Of Italy, Oh
v,croR emanuel III that it would be consider
ed as continuing the line of VicroR EMANUEL ,
and that it might be said that the Dukes OF
SAVOY regarded their importance lessened by be-
coming Kings of Italy. On the other side'
precedents were citedin favor OF the propriely
of couferriug the title of vIcrOR EMAsuEL H.,
and Il was urged that as the present Aing ol

1.-THE third Committee Of Conference on
the Canal lease bill being unable to agree upon
a report The House on yesterday receded from
its disagreemsrt to the Senate amendments to
the House b1l, and agreed to the same, thus
passing DILL providing for lease Of the Ca
mails by public auction. on the 2sth of May
We learn that some Of the Senators who voted
for the bill are very much chagrined because
the House passed it! It was the opinion of the
House that the bill as amended by the Senate
was impractcable, and hence the effort TO amend
It. If thisbe so, Senators need have no fears;
but upon this point we are not prepared to ex-
press an opinion, until the bill as passed is
published. We hope IL is such one as to
warrant parties to make bids under it, and thus
dispose of this vexed question.

which his argument was received. The charge
Of treason thus inferred falls harnless at tho
true patriots feet. He had been for compro-
misses, to save the Union, which many gentle
men refused to agree to, who are now 30 ready
to talk of treason. II the Constitution does not
forbid, he was for the bill.
Mr.. PARSONS said that he would not charge
the gentleman with being a rebel or fayoring
rebellioni but under all ordinary circumstances,
the argument he makes has the appearance Of
taking sides with the enemies Of the State. He
would not have man, In times like these, bur.
row Ikea ferret In the Constitution TO lind
some excuse for refusing to act against the ene'
mica of the country, and traitors to their coun-
try and to their h,lg. There is imperative ne.
cessty for US to act and act speedily. Loyalty
is the first, highest duty Of the citizen.
Mr. DEVORE rose to personal explanation,
and defended himself against what he deemed
a misunderstanding of what he had said. loe
Mr.. CONVERSE regretted that he. had NOT
had time TO examine this bill more closely
The question is, does this bill accomplish the
purpose it processes to do. He desired the pas
sage Of welguarded one; but this does mol
seem to meet the case. 1t would confer upoI
the Governor power that was not warranted
under the Constitution. He objected to Its plae.
ing 80 large an appointing power In the handl
Vi bU6 uOVeTuOFs
Mr.. WOODS said he was surprised at the
position taken by the gentleman from FRANKLIN
eprofesses to be in favor of the object sought
and yet tears down this bill, without proposin(
any thing better. He showed that in severa
instances Mr.. G. had misunderstood the pro-
visions OF the bill. He said there was an immi
nent necessity for the passage of this bill i
did not propose to disturb any right of the loya
citizen, or the right OF any man; and it ought Y
pass. He hoped itwould be perfected and pass
ed speedily. r,.
MIR. CONVERSE replied explaining thu
sense in which he used certain terms In thu
course of his previous remarks.
Mr.. KRUM said he had been very much sur
prised by the arguments offered against this oil
that it was dangerous to the people, &c. IN
history of republics had shown that oil their LEG
slation must be in accordance with the publ
sentiment; and this bill was only to give di
/, rection to the public sentiment of the State.-
That public sentiment is against the transmits
sion Of fcontraband articles, and itsbould be sup
ported by law, making, il possible, 'assuranc
doubly sure" He offered On amendment pro
