Mr. DARCY called up the concurrent resolutions
complimentary 70 Gen. Mcclellan, rendering him =
reception by the State, and appointing Committee
20 visit bin and inform him OF the action OF the

Mr.. REDDINGTON offered IA substitute, declqr-
ing that Gen. Mcclellan entitled 70 the c0nsid-
Grafton OF men Of all parties, inviting hl 10 vis
the Capital the guest Of the State, and requesting
the Governor 10 send bin copy Of the resolutions.
Mr.. SHERWOOD moved 10 amend hy adding
the names Of Burnside, Hooker, Melaher, Corcorsn.
and others
A spirited debate then ensued.
Messrs. r. G. FIELDS, HUGHES MAYHAM,
and HuICHlNGS, assailed the Republicans for
opposing these resolutions 10 compliment brave and
gallant soldier like Gen. Mcclellan, who re-
moved from his command for no reason whatever,
unless Ii that he WAS the idol Of the army and
the pride Of the American people. The opposition
to these resolutions on the part OF the Republican,
YVES unjust attempt to detract from the fame OF
the ex- Commander.in-Cbief. The Republicans OF
this Legislature, portion Of them, have organ
lied together III an endeayor 10 prevent his recall 10
tue head of the army and to force on President
Lincoln the appointment of Gen. Fremont in his
place.
Mr.. REDDINGTON in reply ssd that he did not
desire to detract from such merits as Gen. Mcclellan
bad, but objected to this lauding of him in
deserved a manner and 70 saying that he IL the idol
OF the army. He (l.eddiDgton believed that he
in these resolutions studied attempt 10 assail the
Administration of President Lincoln, and he began
10 suspect that these assertions that General Nc
| Clellan " is the idol Of the army" have deeper
significance than appeared on the surface.

bly, adjourned 10 give way to the State Agricultural

| ARBITRARY ARRESTS.
We had special session last evening, to consider
Judge Deans resolution on arbitrary arrests. Mr..
Prinde opposed the resolution in brilliant speech
of two hours taking the ground that the arrests in
question were sustained by the authority OF Jack
son. Jefferson, and other Democrats, and by the
written finion Of all the best writers on civil and
martial law. His speech gave great annoyance 10
the enemies of the Government, and he wac sub
)ec,ed 10 constant interruptions and vexatons gues.
Iioning from n crowd of Democrats. he answered
them IN the best temper and with fine elect. MIR.
lAlman rose to reply, but broke down III conse-
qucnce OF hoarseness and influenza, which ~ bec0m-
ng something OF AL epidemic mere. Mr. Fields has 30
