NEW.IHAMpsHIRE ON "PEACE.n


The Second New-Iampshire Volunteers,
Col. Gilman Marston (ate NJ. c., has gone
homo to rest and recruit. and its members
will very probably vote at tho Election next
Tuesday. Az il was one of the earliest raised,
before the Democratic leaders had openly taken
ground against the War, and when their
organs claim that nearly all the rank and file
were furnished by their party, and us, after
having been 10 most of the Virginia battles
from first to last, there are still about bve
hundred OF them Loft, the Democratic can
ddates ought to be facilitating themselves on
the prospect of a considerable accession W
their vote from this quarter. Certainly, II
they believe what they print and say about the
devotion of the Army to Mcclellan, its disgust
with the Administration, and its anxiety Tor
Peace on any terms. they ought to e1uIt over
this arrival us great windfall to their cause.
We do not perceive, however, that thsy de-
rive either happiness or confidence from THIS
return of their war.worn neighbors and friends
from tho tented field. On the contrary, II
seems sadly to disagree with them, putting
them into a frame of mind neither placid nor
comfortable.
And vet those SCARED veterans Of the biyOuac
and the battle field are doubtless among the
heartiest and frmest iriends Of Peace. Their
knowledge of the hardships and sgones of War
is of the most thorough and practical kind.
There is probably not one among them who
would not hear with rapture the tidiDgs that
the War was over, the regiment on tho point
of being mustered out, and he OF liberty to re-
turn to the ayocatiOps of peace aud the bless
ings of home. As body, they know whether
peace 10 attainable by giving up to the
Rebels and letting them do with us as they
will. They have had almost daily intercourse
with Rebel wounded or other prisoners, and
with members oil Rebel families in Maryland
or Virginia al;a. know how inclined they are
| to any peace that would not be our National
ruin. Ii the attitude, the sentiments and the
nvowals of tho Democratic politicians now
struggling for the mastery Of New-HamPshire
are such as are calculated TO secure early
and al honorable pence, then the presence OF
these five hundred soldiers. minsliDg with their
felIow.citizens in their several neighboihoods
aud at the pols, must tend powerfully to re-
cure u Democratic triumph. Ii not, why then
not.
We only regret that all the sons of New.
Hampshire now serving the Republic in the
field cannot be at home for at least the en-.
suing week, and that those Of Connecticut and
Rhode Island cannot in like manner be at
home throughout the first week in April. II
they could. we believe the results Of the pend
| ing elections in those States would conduce
to an immediate IMMIGRATION OF the War, and
thus to an early. honorable aud permanent
Peace.

TRUE CONRERYATIsN.

Judge b. +. Thomas, late N. G.. from Mas
sachusetts, is styled Conservative, while we
are stigmatized es Radical; yet we could
no. give moro exact and forcibe expression
to our own idea of the true mode Of prose-
cutting the war for the Union than is given in
the following extract from the Judges late
speech:
Mr. speakor permit. make other practical 'ng-
ge,.on to tho House and that tina. the only ia which
you can recopruct thi, Government is by s cooperation q

Can any one doubt that this is the naked
truth
Well: there are Three Of the Seven Millions
of People now under the sway Of JEFF. Davis
who are cmpbatically and in,tinctveIy "Ioyal."
We appeal to every UniOnist who within the
last two years has traversed the Rebel States
as prisoner or Otherwise in support of our
ayerment that the slaves are intensely loyal.
There are not nearly so many Confederates as
White persons among them. They are almost the
only Unionists in the South who have not been
shot and lynched into at least outward acqaies-
cence in tho rule of JEFF. Davis, The Rebels
do not dare trust them within reacb OF our
lines, knowing that they take to the Union flag

CAPT. LOPER,s DEFENSE.

Having published, some weeks since, Gov.
Grimes's Report TO tho Senate from Select
Committee appointed to investigate the char.
teriug Of steamboats, and other vessels for
Army transports, we give place to-day 10 what
seems 10 us a very full and frank statement
from Capt. Lopez in reply. The aflidavits en-
bodied in Capt. LIS defense put very differ.
ent face on bis dealings with tho Government
from that which they wore in Gov. Grnes's
Report Some Of the most material positions
relied on as facts by the Committee appear to
be quite other than facts in the light east upon
them by Capt Loper's testimony which is en-
tirely elected from witnesses examined by the
Committee, and whose competency and We
racity are wholly unimpeached. We beg every
reader to make himself familiar with all the
facts, which leave little to be added in eluci-
daton Of the whole subject.
1t may well seem to the dsinterestcd exorbi-
tant and unpatriotic to exact $50 to $500
per day for the Use Of middling steamboat;
but when your boat is taken of line where
it is needed aud making money, to the derapge-
disappointment of his regular customers, the
compensation does not seem 50 extrayagant.
We know instances in this vicinity where
important lines Of daily steamboats, have had
to be temporarily given up in obedience to the
urgent--citen mperatyc--demands of the
Government Ii our farmers horses and cattle
we're taken for War purposes by the Govern
ment against their will, they would doubtless
expect to be well paid for them.
Tie Government wants transportation, and
uses-often, for few days only. But the term
expres, aud they are still requircd-as many
vessels taken last April for the Mcclellan ex-
petition to James River wero retained nine
months. Had thor owners knorn that they
would be wanted so long, they could have af-
forded them at q far lower rate; but, never
knowing how long they would be wanted and
being liablc to have them returned on their
hands at any moment mnde very grave di;
ference.
"Why do Mt the Government Guild or bay
all the vessels it wants !" ia sometimes asked.
The answer is that, when an emergency re-
quirips vessels suddenly nrisos-as whom the
Baltimore rioters blocked tho direct road to
Washington-you cannot wait to construct /.
aud you cannot afford to buy when You expect
that the need will soon 10 at an cna. IIcnce,
many charters which seem extravagant, are
really much less SO.
Paying q smart commission for collecting
m0Aey owed by the Government ought not to

THE MILEAGE sWINDLE.

]. Members Of Congress were originally paid
Sc per day aud like sum for every twent,
miles travel in going to and returning from
the seat Of GOyernment-twenty miles travel
in that primitive period, when steamboats, and
railroads had no existence, being esteemed the
fair equivalent Of days service.
III. After while, the Members raised theil
own pay to eight dollars per day and the same
for every twenty miles travel; and the People
stood it.
III. They next put it up Qn l5l6). to
: 500 per annum, beside Mileage as before,
and the People poud nj stand it. On the con.
trary, almost every Member who bad favored
the raise was beaten at the polls. Judge
Savage of our State and Co.. Dick johnson
(who, we believe, was never beaten before nor
afterward), were among the yctims. Henry
Clay, in district which idolized him, barely
saved himself by the most urgent appeals to
the fidelity OF his friends, and by promising
to undo the wrong. When the next Congress
met, the Members repealed the $1,000 COM
pensatOn act and went back to 50 per day
with hardly dissenting voice. And thus it
stood untouched for nearly forty years.
~. In 1856, Judge Butler Of $. &. submitted
a bill making the compensation $4,000 year.
This passed the Senate aud went to the
House, where Col. Orr of S. C.. at once
moved that the compensation be raised to
$4,000 per annum and thereupon called the
Previous Question, cutting of all debate.
This prevailed by bare majority, and the
bill was rushed through by just about votes
enough-nO moro than wero necessary caring
10 take the risk of standing recorded in lis
favor on the Yeas and Nays.
V. Meantime, gross abuses with regard to
Mileage had for years been growing up, and
had at length attracted public attention. In
the first place, the use OF Steam to facilitate
travel Lad reduced the cost Of journey IN time
and money at least three fourths; yet no cor
responding rcduction--none at all, in iuct-had
been made in the allowance Of Mileage. On
the contrary, the modern steam routes were
Gar more devious than the old stuge or saddle
roads over which the Members Of the early
Congresses reached Philadelphia or Washing.
ton. Henry Clay for example, originally
Travelled about five hundred miles to reach
Washington from Lexington, and received
Mileage accordingly; and he charged by
that computation to the end; though his sue
cessors in either House now make the journey
in a fourth of the time at a third Of the cost
Of ono Of his early journeys aud charge twice
az much. Even John G. Calhoun in his later
years pocketed the elongated or crooked
Mileage.

this shameful abuse of charging tho Treasury

ADyOUKNED.

The XXXVIIth Congress adjourned yestcr'
day at noon. 1t gave up the ghost decently
and in order, exhibiting none OF the scandalous
yaparies which usually mark such demise.
Nearly all the important bills were got through
before the recess on Tuesday night, so TINT
bat little remained TOR the closing hours. We
have heretofore indicated in brief what meas
urea passed; Of those Which failed tho more
important were the bill to aid Missouri III
abOli'hing Slavery; aud with this went those
for Maryland and Delaware. The bills TO ad-
nit Nebraska, Colorado, and Nevada as States
were lost for want OF time, or perhaps incli-
nation. The General Bankrupt law was given
up some weeks ago. The proposition to en-
large the Canals SO as to pass gunboats from
tho Atlantic to the Mississippi also failed. So,
as we understand the report, did the proposed
amendment to the Pacific Railroad bill.
The last hours Of the Senate lin fact oil see
sion yesterday were used up by the fnctious
oppostion Of the Pro-Slaverysts to a bill pro.
yiding for the election Of Congressman in
Tennessee epd Louisiana. Tue last hours Of
