As a little over two weoka of | tho session remain, the fete ol any measure I engulphed in tho Committoo 01 the Whole is I exceedingly problematical. The Senate went into the consideration oJ the Conscription bill, to whioh lone very im portant amendments, ombraood in your re gular report, were adopted. In the Senate debate on tho Conioription bill, the moat interesting paeiage conoerned tha question! whether members of Congress | er clergymen should be exempted, and wheth er foreigners, who hare deolarod their tnun tione of citisenship, shonld bo lUble to mili ure duty.

The opposition Won't vote solid against tho I bill—only the copperheads of tho bitterest sort. Messrs. McDougal, Garrett Davis and I Nesmith assisted to perfect it. Mr. Richardson admitted its necessity. Most of the copperheads were absent this The prospects for the admission of the New ■ Orleans membhrs look a little more favorable.
