The Richrnond Wing Of yesterday says:
The Exemption Bill was passed by the Senat,


yesterday AS it is quite lengthy, and has to
undergo the revision OF the Honse of Repre-
sentatves, we deem it unnecessary to occupy
space by publishing il in full. It's provisions
differ from those of the act OF last session in
several particulars. The clause relative to the
exemption of those unit for service in the field
provides that their bodily incapacity shall be
ssassertained by surgeon ofthe army who is
not resident of the part Of the conRtry from
which those he is called upon to examine may
have come" 1t also provides that persons SO
examined and declared unfit for duty ''shall
not be afterwards subject to be again exarnin-
ed and enrolled" How many tines have they
been examined already
The clause exemptiug the judicial and exc
cutive officers Of State Governments specifca-
ly exempts the Judges Of the supreme. District,
Sup erior. Circuit and Probate Courts, the Chan
cellors of State Courts, and Sheriffs, and ex-
cludes Justices of the Peace.
Persons appointed by the officers Of the Ex.
ecutive Departments, since the 18th April, 49,
60. and who were liable to military service
when appointed. are excluded from exemp-
ton.
Presidents or conductors of any railroad
company, or train, who fail, neglect, or refuse
to furnish seats drinking water to sick and
wounded soldiers, not to be exempted.
''One editor of each newspaper now being
published, and such journeymen printers, engi
neers, pressmen, stenographic reporters and
mailing clerks as the editor or proprietor there
of may certify upon oath to be Indispensable
Cor conducting the publication" are to be ex.
emptec.
Manufacturers Of various classes specified,
are exempted on condition that the manufac.
tured articles shall be sold at net profit not
exceeding thirty per cent. per annum on the
net capital invested.
Two new clauses relative to the police of
slaves, and to the protection Of families not less
than ten in number on any farm, are embrac-
ed in the bill. They we're published in full
as adopted in the report Of the Sc nate proceed
ipgs, few days ago.
These are the prnci pie changes made in the
Exemption Act passed at the last session.

AAee DSoef COS among L4e COttOn OpefdtaOeS OF
fraaee-Ihe French correspondent of the Spec

and the measures adopted for their relief. He
says:
One may form an idea of the number OF
families doomed to starvation oy rejecting
that in the department. of the Seine Inferieure
alone, the cotton trade sets in motion more
than the fourth part of the whole number OF
spindles that are worked all over France. Day

bread and shelter Railway stations are be.

much more affecting still the unseen distress of
those who had rather die than beg; and of
those too, who having eithe: to attend an aged
parent or TO rurse ~ baby, as it were, i'm
prisoned in their wretched dwellings,. There
are, in the Seine Inferieure 2 200. 900 >pindIes,
$4,000 looms, 80 chintz manufacturers. aud 81
600 hand looms. Well, in ordinary times, the
manufacturers employ 10000 working mer.-
Now days they employ scarcely 10000
Consequently, sc 900 are out OF work.
Each hand loom must occupy man and a
woman or child; IN all, l2S, 900 hands. Since
the crisis, five weavers out of SIX are still for
want of work in other words, there are about
IO2. 600 weas ers in state Of starvation. Nor
do those fare much better VIII ose work is, either
directly or indirectly, connected with the man

IMPRESSMENTS.

The House of Representatives has passed bill
to regulate the impressment OF private property
for public use. The bill received general sup
port in the House, and we presume is such as the
interest ts of the Government and people demand.
But it hangs fire in the Senate. At least, we hear
of no action being taken upon it in that body.
II Honorable Senators were aware of the univer
sal and extreme dissatisfaction which the present
arbitrary system excites throughout the country,
they would hasten to act. The present system is
the essence OF tyranny. An officer in the Commits
sary or Qua- termaster' S Department took it upon
himself without any authority Of law, to assess
the value of every mans property, and he took
care to fix the assessment at about half the mars
ket price. With this assessment in pocket, the
Government agents have been securing the coun.
try and sezing the property OF individuals at this
arbitrary valuation. We learn from curt epistle
of President Davis TO the House OF Representatives
that no seizure and contscation of the property of
citizens has been made by his order. We might
infer that, as the proceeding was had without his
order it was also without his appreciation If we
did not know the proceeding every day taking
place by persons claiming to be agents of the Gov
ernment
and oppressive 1t assimiates our Government to
the horrible Yankee despetism against which We
are waging war. The system is az little justified
by necessity as law and by Justice. 1t is sander
the people of this State, and believe of eve
ry other, to say that force is necessary to make
them furnish supplies to the army. They are vii
ling to sell at fair rricen such money the gov
ernment has, all they spare, for the use of our
armies What they complain OF; what they have q
right to complain of and have right to resist by
force if they choose, is that clerk in Richmond,
should undertake to assess their property at half
its worth, and authorize its seizure and confsca-
ton at that rate We have never heard of any OF
the assessors fixing the prise OF their own pro
du cts at these deprecated values. ese4s.s. s
We beg the Senate to take early action on this
bill. More may be lost to the common causc by a
system of il.egality and injustice than can be gain
ed by saving few dollars in Confederate notes.

Am AboiitIonIst for Peace.

A few days since, Senator Conway, of Kan>
sas, one Of the most ultra, as we'll Of
the ablest, of the Republican members Of Con
gress made strong speech in favor of peace
and the stopping of the war. The speech is
said to nave the approval of Gen. Anderson,
Charles Sumner, w. Philips, Horace Grseley
and other leading Aboiit:onists, who held a
caucus in w Washngton just before it was deliv-
cred. IL is very important and significant
demonstration.
Mr. Conway in his speech announced him.
self as opposed to re- anion. He says:
81 am not in favor of restoring the constitu-
ii onal relation of the shareholders to the Uron
nor of the war to that end. j have never ais
lowed myself to indulge in that superstitious
idclatry OF the Union so prevalent among sim
pie but hon est people, nor the political cant
about the Union prevalent among dishonest
ones.''
That the Sonth had established it's indepen~
dence, he boldly declared, saying:
ssThe war between the North and South for
the past two years has made a revolution. 1t
has substituted in the South another Govern
ment for the Union. This is the fact, and the
fact 10 such matter is the important thing tech
nicaity in a question Of this kind cam ct stand
The war has utterly dissolved the connection
between the North and the South, and renders
them separate and independent powers in the
world"
Mr.. Conway concludes by announcing that
the true policy of the North is to terminate the
war at once, and he urges both houses of Con-
gress to adopt the following resolutions
Resolved, ty the House of Representatives.
That the Executive be and he is hereby request
ed to issue genera. order to all commanders
of forces in the several military departments
of the United States to discontinue offensive
operations against the enemy and to act for the
future entirely on the defensive.
Resolved. That the Executive be and he is
further requested to enter into negotiations
with the authorities of the Confederate States
with reference to cessation of hostiities, based
on the following propositions ] Recognition
of the Independence of the Confederate States.
