MAsHINGTON, March ,.
yINDICATION OF DEMOCRATIC PoLIcY IN THE MATTER
.OF ARBITRARY ARRESTS.
The House had most spirited debate to-day on
an amendment TO the Civil Appropriation bill otter
ed by Mr. Winter Davis, prohibiting in future all
arbitrary arrests OF civilians, except spies, and
their trial by military commission, and also requlr-
ing the transfer OF all civilians In military pri
sons TO the civil courts Mr.. Dawes, of MaSSa gra-
phically reviewed the abuse OF power by these mill
tary commissions, and DENOUNCED their rule aS diS-
graceful even to the age Of JeifreyS. Winter Davis
was even more severe, and Illustrated his remarks
Is cases coming under his personal notice that
somewhat aStoniShed the House. His speech, on
The. whole, was one of the most impaSSoaeo and
brilliant efforts, ever delivered on the floors of
Congress At ous time nearly all the members
were gathered around him and the galleries testi-
lied their admiration iu applause. The amendment
was triumphantly adopted.

The Salisbury IN. c. WatctaaR, OF 81 Instant,
SAYS that one Of the most important OF printers
proverbs is-'' Never Esk the printer what's the

The editor then presents the result Of statisti-
cal reeosd showing that out of 10 persons who
called at bis ofsce during the preceding three days
o. asked what's the newsf' ~ trapsacted their
business and departed without hindering him from
his duties aud Sc had more or less talking to do to
which they expected him to istea. de says - 1t IS
very pleasant to CRAFTY the rational wishes OF
Friends and II one always had some good news TO tell
which he could fire OF u an instant without the
danger OF being asked thousand other questions
in explanation, eoniectural or otherwise, 1t would
not he such an intolerable bore to be asked the
news evsry.ten minutes m the day"

/. his time is consumed b. useless questions and

will be prevented from attending t. his duties

SHERMAN,S CAMPAIGN.

1t is very evident that, beneath all their ciamor
ouS demonstrations Of confidence, there exists q
dreadful feeling OF uncertainty among the Yankees
in regard to Shermau'S progress. The n. Y Times
seeks to remove this fear by the following buster
ing intnnatons Of confidence: # F
We would strongly recommend those gentlemen
who are alarmed just now about Gen. Sherman,
10 reserve some Of their anxiety for General Lee,
whose position is iullNA precarous as Sherman's.
No information thsfs<has yet been received
from any quarter relating 10 the strength OF the
force under Johnston, or of the garrisons which
have recently been withdrawn from Wilmington
and Charleston, makes il appear at all probable
thai the rebels can offer Sherman battle in North
Carolina with the smallest chance OF success, with
out drawing heavy reinforcement from Lees ar
my at Richmond. If any such reinforcement has
gone forward, it Is impossible to believe that the
lieutenant General will not take advantage of its
ABSENCE to repeat his attempts on Richmond. Aud
even the force collected in Shermans front is a
large one ii IS certainly not large enough TO turn
the odds against him, and most probably will fall
far short OF being equal in numerical strength TO his
army. So, why should anybody feel troubled
| about the result l.t- "a
We hope but few people have iiatteyed themselves
that all the lighting over and that all We had
now g,i Ia do, was to march 8p To Richmond aud
receive the swords of the Rebel officers. We shall
| certainly have more battles aud probably sangui.
nary ones before we break up Lees force aud
This being the case, We. really do not knowiwhogi
The public could select to tight one of them litter
| than General Sherman. There is nobody better
fitted To DO whatever has to he done IN N. Carolns
than lac no troops were ever ia inner eundiilo than
his TO be sure he may be far from his base but We
usuect ne knows as well where his base is asany Of
those in New York who are SO troubled about hi'
