Who Conducts the War ?

Secretary Stanton, in his report, ignores
the active operations of our armies-turDs
all that part of the business of his depart
ment over to another functionary, and so
gives clear intimation that he has left it
alone aud has nothing to do with it. That
other ACKNOWLEDGEMENT Halleck--has
given us very full report but whenever
be comes to avery important point, and one
upon which the people particularly desire
knowledge, all that he says is the Presi-
dent. So the President is responsible for
Burnside's failure in December last, for
Hooker's at Charlottesville, and foE the
bad business at Chichamauga. Now, as the
President is not militery man, and is en-
phatically sensible one, it is difficult to
suppose that he has made all this trouble
by Interference with generals; and the next
question, therefore, is, who moves the Pres
ident? Who is at the bottom, and who
carries on the war We do not expect an
answer to this question but it is to be ex
pected that people will provide against the
recurrence Of the blunders under another
administration and the way for them to
do it is to elect General Grant President.
They may know positively enough that he
will carry on the war and end it too.

The Richmond Enquirer of Thursday last,
contains report of doings in the Rebel
Congress, which argues that stormy discus
sion may be expected. Mr. Foote of Ten
nessee, in speech, denonnces JEFF. Davis
as the cause of all the disasters to the
Rebel arms, and charges him with exerting
q msllgn influence wherever he has visited
the troops, offering to prove that his ruler
ship has almost ruined the country. Ad-
vsrting to the horrible crueltiss practiced
upon our prisoners at Richmond, Mr.. Foote
did not scruple to admit that they had been
reduced to starvation, but threw the blame
upon Mr.. Northrop, the rebel Commissary,
whom he charged with having stealthily
placed the Government in the dishonorable
attitude IN which this matter makes it stand

ting the employment Of substitutes in the

How to Increase the Soldiers
Paw.

There is disposition in Congress to in
creare the pay of the rank and file of the
army. Without doubt Mr., CHAsE's fnanci al
policy, deluging the country with an ire
deemable and inflated paper currency, has
reduced the pay of the soldier, or rather the
purchasing power of his pay, too low, Were
the soldier paidin gold dollars or their equi-
valent his would be abundant pay, more
than the soldier of any other nation GETS
Mr., CHASE has sweated every dollar until
one third gifts value has been taken away.
The dollar he pays out is worth but sixty
six cents. The true method of increasing
the soldiers pay is to increase the value of
the treasury notes paid to him, not to in
crease their number. If Congress will so
legislate as to compel Mr.. CHASE to act
upon the doctrines which he so plausibly
processes, and return to a specie paying ba
sis; it will at once add fifty per cent. to the
soldiers pay without adding dollarto the
national dedt

XXXVIII CONGRESS.
SENATE.
THURSDAY, December l6, 1863

THURSDAY, December IL, 1868.
Mr.. Hale rose to priviledged question.
He desired to send to the Clerks desk, to
be read, newspaper paragraph charging a
Senator from New EDglang with briqery in
securing the release of two prisoners from
the Old Capitol prison for the sum of $4,000.
From information received faom Senator,
he was led to believe that it was he (Hale)
was the person referred to, and he wished
to make statement Of facts on which the
charges we're founded.
Mr.. Hale then explained that he had act
ed as counsel for these persons and previous
to doing 80 he had asked the advice of Hon.
Reverdy Johnson ane others, if he could,
consistently with his position as U. s. Sen
ator, act as legal edviser of the above men
toned parties. He ws- ssdred he could,
ane no reason existed why he should not
Hon. Beverly johnson stated to him that
he was himself engaged in such cases almost
daily. Under these circumstances be had
acted for the prisoners. He (Hale) then
stated the facts of the case and concluded
by saying if there was any indelicacy it was
not done inadvertently, but advisedly and

Mr.. Johnson remarked that he recollec-
ted the day that Hale called On him as stat
ed and reported the conversation material
" as stated in answs.' to his (Hale's) in.
curry, whether Senator was precluded
FROM acting as counsel fer a person charged
before a court-martial with fraud. He
(Johnson) said he saw no loyal impedi-
ments in the way or even iudelicacy for
what he (Hale) had done was no doubt
done in consequence of this opinion. Sena'
tors do not cease to be lawyers II
called upon for professional services
He saw no difficulty in complying
unless the services involved the neglect
of public duties. He Johnson had repeat
edly acted himself upon this assumption
The only question that can arise is there
any law prohibiting it? There was Law
prohibiting Senators from prosecuting
claims against the Government before Cour
of claims. He believed that same law, ex
cspt expressed cases pending before thu
courts, one has right to go before an
other. court in the Z. s., if it is brought be-
fore a military court. A lawyer whose ser
vices are desired has no right because ne i
member Of Congress, to refuse his ser
vices any more than he would in a capita
case in the civil courts.
Mr.. Hale submitted the following resolu
ton which was agreed to:
Resolvsd, That the Committee on JUDD
ciary be instructed to inquire whether =
P. Hale, a member of thit body, in connsc
ton with the case of one Hunt, charge
with crime by direction Of the War Depart
ment, has been guilty Of any condue
inconsistent with his duty as q Senator, an
that they have power to send for person
