PROPOSITION TO HONOR TREASON Last week we briefly referred to the debate in theXtrited States Senate on Senator McCreery's proposition to re store - Arlington Heights" to Gen. Lee's widow; and m rtmove the twenty thousand thrion dead • now reposifig there. The outnigeous insult thus of fered to the Senate and the country., drew out Edmunds, Morton, Scott, Thayer, Patterson, Nye', Sumner, mid other Republican Senators, in eloquent and indignant denunciations of the out rage. Aside from the eloquent. utter ances of these gifted championsTrof freedom, the debate has a marked—Sig nificance, in that Mr. McCreery's reso lution and the arguments by which he enforced it, d*losi) the spirit that ani mates the Dernlicvatic leaders, and fore shadows their purpose, if so be the Anierican people should re-invest them with political power. So regarding it, we copy from the official report in the Congreminnal Globe, a full abstract of the debate, and feel assured that we need tender no apology to our readers for giving it so much prominence. Every intelligent voter should give it a careful persual. Casserly and Bayard, of the Democnitic Senators, alone voted with the Republicans in emphatic re buke of McCreery's proposition. The other Democratic Senators either gave it their approval or shirked the record. The Senate, in absolutely refusing to re ceive the proposition, fitly expressed tare loyal sentiment of the nation, and did justice to 'the memory of our heroic dead, mid in so far we are glad that Senator McCreery gave opportunity for suet, expression. Referring to this discussion the Phila delphia Bulletin pertinently remarks :hat "it is difficult to find any terms in v. - hich to denounce this rebel movement, more forcible and eloquent than those employed by the loyal Senators.. But we may say that the AfcCreery resoltr tion is an embodiment of a feeling of • s , •11 t imental adinirat ion of General Lee v,.l;ieli found expression in many North t•ru-trewspapers before, and at the time , f, his death. So much has been said of what Senator Mcereery calls Lee's 'in tl . xit,ki vin tie,' of his chivalrous sense of 10 , 1 or, his spotk3:. integrity and his Con siALt.ut piety, that many weak-miuded people have determined that'he possess e 1 all these excellent qitalitieS, and was a model gentleman.

SENATORS. SIILTRZ AND DI:AKE, of 3iissouri, had Friday and Saturday last, as field days in the Senate, explaining and defending their positions in the recent political contest in that State.

That is the spectacle which we non witness in the Senate of the United States, before six years have passed away from the laying down of the arms of the rebellion! The graves of those men who gave their lives that we might sit here in common with the people of the Union in the enjoyment 'of the blessings of the Union, purchased by their blood and their lives, are to be opened; an act of sacrilege is to be corn milted, ,in order that this property may be given back to the widow of Lee. Sir, as an American citizen, as a Senator of the United States, and as a soldier in the war for the Union, I enter my solemn protest against it. Ma. PATTERKIN, of New Hampshire. Mr. President quite enough, perhaps, has been said iu relation to this subject; but it seems to me there is one element of tur pitude in this resolution which has not been fully considered by the Senate. We are asked, not simply to inquire into the propiety of restoring this property to the widow . of General Lee, but we are to in quire also as to the propriety of removing the dead who fell in the cause of the Union from that estate, in order that the widow of the great *Wel may return and inhabit her old dwelling-place. It seems to me that that is an insult to all the dead who fell in the mighty struggle for • .the Union, and an outrage to all the living who fought for the great cause. It is not simply asking that their estate may be restored to theirank and file of the rebel army, but that,:this estate may be restor ed to the family'. of the arch traitor who left Washington after having been educa ted at the expense of the republic; left this very capitol, where, from his position, he was cognizant of all the secrets of the Ad ministration and of its plans and policy to hurl back and crush treason, and took with him that knowledge to Richmond,' that he might use it to overthrow the G 3 ynn. ment which had educated, truster:, and honored him.

The excitement in 3larkleville and vicinity, the scene of the late terrible calamity, has undergone no subsidence— in fact, it has rather increased than diiiiin ished. There are very few who believe that the four members of the Boyer family who _perished in the flames were not chloroformed and deliberately murdered. First it was supposed that the conflagra tion was traceable to the explosion of a ooaboil lamp, but investigation gave room for much doubt as to the correctness of this belief. The parties bad apparently not moved; no efforVitad been made to escape the smoke or fire; the bodies lay in a natural sleeping posture.

Some few suspected Thomas J. Boyer, sou of a brother of the deceased, of having com mitted the double crime, and since then the sentiment has become almost univer sal in the vicinity of the catastrophe that he was the guilty man! On Thursday and Friday last an inquisition was held en the bodies of the deceased, and on Monday evening information was made before John R. Shuler, Esq., by District Attorney B. P. 31*Intire, charging that from the evi dence elicited at the coroner's inquest it was believed "that Thomas J. Buyer, a eon of J. P. Boyer, caused the death of John 1 5 . Boyer, Jane Ann Boyer, Eliza beth Boyer, and John Boyer, and then set fire to the dwelling house and consumed their bodies so as to 'conceal the heinous crime of murder..." The same information charged him with having forged the name of Wilson Darlington. his father-in-tam, to a note, for forty-five dollars, payable to A. S. Whitekettle; and, also, the name of his father to two notes given the Peny County Bank—one for two hundred dol lars and the other for one hundred dollars; also, the name of Lis father to another note given to Wilson Darlington and A. B. Clouser for one hundred and twenty five dollars. On Tuesday morning Thomas .1. Boyer was arrested by Sheriff Rinehart and im prisoned in the Perry county jail. The accused was formerly deputy under Sheriii Rinehart, and several months ago it was reported that lie had been attacked by highwaymen and a sum of money belong ing to Perry ' county taken from Tani. Since the late occurrences an impression has gained that his story was manufac tured; that he promulgated it so that he might deceive the people and appropriate the money his own use. t di Thomas Boyer is a man aged about thirty yea , and recently married a young daughter of Wilson Darlington, a resident of one of the rural districts of Perry county. Mr: Darlington is a gentleman of wealth and high resrwectability.

MEM [A discussion here foiktwed as to the propriety of the Senate refusing leave to a member to introduce a resolution.

Sumner and Edmunds. in reply, cited as .precedents the- refusal of the Senate to allow the introduction of bills for the an nexation of Texas and for the repeal of the fugitive slave law. The Vice President also cited several instances, when the debate was resumed.] Mr. Mortvnc, of Indianil, protested against the consideration of the resolution. He had henrd what he Lever expected to hear, an eulogy upon the character of Gen eral Lee in the Senate of the United States, and that, too, within sight (!tf the graves of the victims of his rebellion. Hampden and Sidney did not die for human slavery, but for liberty. This man General Lee was, of all others in the rebellion, a sinner — He had sinned against light and knowledge. His Revolutionary anqestry, his oath of fealty as anbfficer of die 'United States, his finished education and high abilities, all forbade him thus to sin; and the enormity of his crime could witbe concealed by decorating his grave with flowers of rhetoric. In a word, it was now proposed that the Senate should gravely consider a proposition to degrade the memories of the patriotic dead of Arlington by removing their bones to less hallowed ground in tender consideration of the rights of the widow of the arch-rebel of the moat wicked rebellion in history. itr. Scorr, of Pennsylvania. Mr. President, it may be that long service in this Chamber has enabled some Senators so to control their feelings that it is deem ed dignified not to give expression •to them. It may be, sir, that it is even pru dent and that older Senators have learned that prudence, not to attempt to give ut terance to sentiments which wellecl'up in my bosom when I heard the opening sent ences ofthe Senator from Kentucky. Those openlng sentences uttered in this Cham ber,_ coupling together the names of Thomaerand of Lee, brought back to my recollection the utterance of a Senator who once'occniied a seat in this cliamber, anclmade at the time when Thonries and Lee were taking their departures upon the paths that were preaented them. Stephen A. Douglas declared at that hour, that 1 from that day hence there were ' but two classes in the nation—patriots and trai- tors. And, sir, another feeling arose when I re-called tluttuomtiment.

Therefore shall I vote for the most summary proposition to dispose of this resolution. Beyond this, perhaps, there is po circa- Mon for remark, especially when I consid er how eloquent Senators have already characterized the proposition and the traitor whom it seeks to commemorate. I am not disposed to speak of General Lee. It is enough to say that be stands on the catalogue of these who have imbrued their hands in their country'i blood. I hand him over to the avenging pen 'if History. But there is one practical remark that I would make. I would call the attention of the Senate to the character of this pro position in another aspect. We all know the political associations of the honorable Senator who has introduced it. May we not regard this resolution as showing the sentiments of his associates? Does it not prefigure the policy that they would establish should they obtain power in the government of 1 the country, as threatened by the Senator from Delaware, as threatened by other Senators and by other associates of those Senaton, ? Do we not see here the policy that would be established-a policy which is to take the old rebellion by the hand; which is to install it in the nigh places of power, in the Executive Mansion, in these Halls of Congress? Now, air, could I make my voice beard from one end of this country to the other, from 3fassachusetts to Louisiana, it would be to warn against that political combina tion which shows its lauds now in the pro position of the Senator from Kentucky. - Take warning, I would say to my fellow countrymen everywhere, not only at the South but at the North, but especially at the South, that the political party with which the Senator is associated, should it obtain power In this nation, will es tablish the policy of which his resolution is the representative. That is the practi cal remark I have to make. There is a fact which I think I ought to contribute to this debate. It so happen ed that I was rwith the late Mr. Stan' on when he made the order for the burial of our patriot dead on the grounds of Arling ton. Ile mentioned it; disclosed to me his reason. He said he meant to bury those dead there in perpetual guard over that ground, so that no person of the fam ily of Lee shopld ever dare to come upon it unless to encounter the ghosts of those patriots. It was in that spirit that that ground was set apart. Now, as I under stand, it is proposed to take up thoise re mains and to give over the grotind,to the family of the traitor. My friend by my side [Mr. NTS] has already used an expression which I think was a happy inspiration, when be said that those dead lying there were as sacred as the constitution itself. I think he seas right. We may as well disturb our sacred text as disturb their remains. Over every grave are written words of warning. Do you remember, sir, in some respects the most memorable epitaph ever written, that over the remains of William Bhakspeat t It is as follows: "Good Mend! for Jesus' sake forbear To dig the dust Inclosed here. Mad be the man ail silmme these stones: AM cursed he Mat moves my bones.", For two centuries and a ball those words have guarded the sacred remains of Eng. WC' greatest' poet. I write them now over the grate of every one of our patriot dead. May they continue for centuries to come to guard their remains. At this stage' of the ' Abate, the Demo cratic Senators grew restive and sought to evade a direct vote and prevailed on Mt. Idcereery to ask leave to withdraw his resolution. Objection being made to this, Mr. Davis, of Kentucky, moved to lay the whole subject on the table. A long de bate here sprung up se to the propriety of allowing the Senator from Kentucky: to withdraw his resolution between Meals. Edmunds, McCreary, Trumbull, Patter ' son, and Dayani, when finally the motion to lay on the table was defeated, ayes 9, lays 49, when ther3enatet was brought to a direct vote on the original motion to grant Mr. McCreary leave to introduce his resolution, with the following result: - YmAs-lfessen Fowler, Nandlion of Maryland, igacraernaad Vickers-4.
