sssaee - Tass1y, BY Mr.. Costose,
shs DsGnocss16 Hcsalor from Norwich,
wsse lald on ths table, ard three hus-
dred copies ordered to be printed. They
arc emineutIy reasonable and deserve
the most deliberate consideration. They
are ~ follows:
the PEACE REVOLUTIONS.
WHssEAs, At this period nearly one.
halt Of the States Of the Union have
taken upon Themselves the respsnsibili.
~ Of Withdrawing their duty and slle-
glance to tho Federal Government, and
have, 10 measure, established Con-
federate Government, separate from the
Government Of the Uuited States, and
established Constitution, Republican
in form, and have sent Commissioners to
the Federal Government to negotiate
relative to the property and rights Of
tho separate and contending parties
and
WHERRAs. 1t il not only desirable
but indispensable to the security and
welfare Of the people Of the United
States that terms of peace and reconcil-
iation be arranged between the portions
Of this country, now in . state Of war,
before the bitterness Of fraternal strife
and bloodshed shall make arrangement
impossible; and 20
WHERRAs, The necessary conse quences
OF such q war would be the ruin Of thou
sands Of loyal citizens in the States now
seeded and those of other portions Of
the Union, none of whom are in any way
responsible for the fratricidal war now
commenced in our unfortunate country.
And, believing as we do, that the calm
patriotism and sober reason Of the
American people may yet decide upon
honorable terms, the existing troubles.
And, believing that civil war, if persit-
ed in, and pursued with the maIignity
which always characterizes sssuch con-
flicts, will only terminate in an over
whelming indebtedness, public and pri.
vate, without benefting either of the
parties to this unhappy controversy, and
in military despotism, under which
the liberties of the people will be disre-
garded, and the butchery Of the inno-
cent and loyal citizen, as we'll al of the
guilty, be the consequence, such q war,
we believe, ought to be, ifpossible, hon.
orably avoided as being unreasonable,
unpatriotic and anti Coristion there
fore
Resolved, That the Senate the State
of Connecticut recommend to the Gov
eminent Of the United States, this their
most earnest appeal, that while every
preparation for the defense and maiu-
tainancc of tho Government shall be
made, q cessation, if possible, of any
further hostilities may take place, until
Congress shall have time to act in tho
premises.
ResolUed, That We recommend TO
Congress the call Of National Con-
vention for the settlement of national
difficulties, and that every possible hon.
orable means shall be first exhausted by
the National Government before our
prosperous people be plunged into a
civil war, the ultimate result Of which
the wisest cannot forcsee.
RESOLVED, That we are opposed to
civil war prosecuted for the subjugation
or destruction Of the seeded States,
while it is possible amicably to settle
the difficulties now existing.
Nessofved, That We are opposed to the
prosecution Of war against the seced-
ed States, wagcd under any circum-
stances, for the purpose of emancipat-
ing the slaves of the Southern slavehold-
ing States.
ResoiUed, That the Clcrk of the SEN
ate be instructed to forward q copy oil
these resolutions to the President of the
United States, and also one to each of
orr Senators and Representatives in
Congress.
Cor Sick OF 1r.-Russell, the CORES
pendent Of the London Times, has
spent considerable time in the South,
looking around among the "gay and
festive cusses" Of that section, and has
| finally crossed over into the land Of the
Stars and Stripes, with the conclusion
perfectly matured, that there are more
desirable places to live in than the
"sunny South"
DouBrFUL.-It is said of Gov. Jack
son, Of Missouri, that he promised to
take his State tout of the Union, or take
her to hell" but the appearances just
now seem to indicate that his declara-
ton will prove untrue. Having fled to
Arkansas himself, we believe he has left
Missouri behind; and when he takes
one step further to tho region spoken of,
it is extremely doubtful if she follows
him.
