the most Renewed laughter.

that Gen. Stone was entitled to be heard unless
there was eome OverbeariGR military necessity to the
contrary. lie denied the nsinuations made by some

and had done olhing, directly or indirectly, which
led to bic arrest. lie favored reference of the res
olutiop TO the Committee The Conduct of tue var.

ON the resolution should be answered. but he dd not
favor reference of the resolution TO the War Com
m tee, as it not ComhIttee oil ihe Senate, on'
a olnt one Of the two houses.
Mr. MCDOUGALL here suggested 10 refer the
resolution TO the Military COMMITTEE.
Mr. KING (Rep., N. y as member oil the Min
tary Committee, hoped it would not be referred TO
them. IL would involve the same inquiries as before
the Committee on the Conduct OF the War, where
the resolution belonged.

mony before the War Committee were, IN point OF
fact untrue No evidence, 10 his knowledge, as
member of that Committee, had ever been tsgen

I'M his own defense. He tired Of these mean and
false imputations on the Committee
Mr.. McDOUGALL a-ked if tie Senator meant to

Mr.. FESSENDEN (Rep., Me- said he thought
the inquiry was proper, unless some imperous III IL
tary necessity prevented tie tril Of Gen. Stone
but this should be left with the President as Com
mander-In-C Chief OF the Army, who was alone Jndee
in The premses. No one would guard constitutional
right. more than himself, ana it was proper for
Congress to inquire into these arrests.
hr. GRIMES (Rep., Iowa. trusted that the Som
ate would come back 30 the question before them,
aud not debate these side issues lie favored Mr..
Mr. Wisons resolution calling for facts in regard TO
the arrests of the President il not incompatible with
the public iDterest.

made on him to-day, and believed no man stood
