WAsHNGToN, March 5.-The House
to-day is devoted to speech making.
Mr. Baldwin, of Massachusetts,, spoke
of the doctrine of State Rights, as a
mere instrument to break down ma
tionality
Mr.. Boyd, of Missouri, made a speech
in reply to Mr. Blair, he maintained
that the political members were the
two Representatives of the Union senti-
ment of the State, and the President
has said to him if the threats of either
the conservatives, the Claybanks or the
radicals, had to be cut short, he would
spare the radicals.
Mr. VOORHEES,, of Indiana, said that
the American Republic is dying, and
the causes which are working it are
great, and falls far under the present
administration. Justice was no longer
established-no more the blessing of
liberty are secured to citizens
It is known here that Gen Sherman
was back at Vicksburg in time to start
on a new expedition on the 9th, as il

however, soon be heard from again in
active operations. IL Is not believed in
military circles that Admiral Farragut
intended to accomplish anything more
at Mobile than to.hmake demonstration
to draw the attention OF the rebels from
other points of operation.
There are stories afoat here that the
testimony Of General Sickles touching
the battle Of Gettysburg viii make it
necessary for Gen. Meade to resign
command of the army of the Potomac.
In that case either Gen. Hooker or
Smith VIII be his successor 1t is said
that Gen. Grant has recommended Gen.
Smith.

Judge Loring only dissenting, have de
iyered an opinion in the case of VIM.

What the Peace Men will do.

The New York News, edited by Ben
Wood, a member of Congress, and the
organ of the Peace Party in New York,
and the East, is severe on the War De-
moeracy. James Brooks, Gov Seymour,
and all of that class, are denounced in
the strongest terms; they have it as
serts, abandoned the democratic party,
and must not be recognized in the ap-
preaching Chicago Convention. None
there, viii be allowed but Simon pure
peace men; genuine friends of Jeffer-
son Davis.
This determination, so firmly and
frequently avowed, called forth the ire
of small class of politicians, who de
sired a compromise, by which they
would appear excused for aiding the re-
bellion; and they accused Ben of per-
sistence in a policy which disturbs the
harmony of the party. But this don't
bother him in the least Either peace
is right or wrong, and all who take
sides, must do so unequivoOslly. He
says =
ave persist in advocating q complete
and eternal breach between the Peace men
and that shifting, shutting, hermsphrodite
Of faction called War Democracy, which
at last has identified itself with Abolition
ism. We persist in exhOrting the Peace
Il. n. l..
upon the plain, unequiVocal Peace issue,
and we continue TO aliege that any eonnec-
ton with the War Democracy in their Abo-
lltion garb will be disgraoeful and injurious
10 the Peace party, and detrimental TO the
interests Of the pure Democracy, and utterly
in violation Of It's principle"
Ben, proceeds to accuse Brooks of
being purchased, and concludes def
ant article in these terms:
eff there is any thing that we should de-
test more than TO be in league with the Ad-
ministration in their frstrieidal schemes, it
would be an alliance with those time.serving
Journalists that call themselves WAR Dem.
oeratie' and that now are in open league
with Abolitionism."
In connection with this, we will state
that the local conventions in Ohio are
declaring for peace, and either the nom
nation of Vallandigham or Connecticut
Seymour, for the Presidency. We en-
tirely mistake the signs of the times if
the peace men do not nominate either
the one or the other of these men. OF
course the ticket viii be overwhelmingly
beaten
The Tammany faction-the War Demo
Gratis of New York City--have cut loose
from the organization; are now in a
position TO become the leaders of the
War Democratic Party at large. The
New York Herald advises them to nomi-
nate Gen Grant on an unexceptionable
platform-the General, Of course, would
stand in no other-and enter the lists
independently. We must confess that
such a movement VIII be formidable
