A LABORIOUS COMMITTEE. ; The committee at Washington -tHcNn- j lional Administration—biiperimending 1 the next Presidential, election, is one of the most Industrious in or about the Cap itol. That appointed last session to os tensibly investigate war matters, but . -* 1 appears that the tunnel under whose'real Object was to hunt up t , sti . : was dng'entirely with . , ~ ian old hinge, ana the loosened earth—a mony to damage Gen.

As the tunnel progressed, the e t' i • miner took with him, besides his tools. \ i an ohl-fashioned knapsack, made upon a damaging probable opponents. These w ooden frame, to which a cord was at fttWemihg and eold-bloodtfd politicians, 1 tarhed. When he tilled this with earth, appear to entertain a moat remarkable u A ™ s drawn out by an accompliee who , , renfained m the cellar, the contents de anttpothy to our Mheral.s m the »r- posil , ed safelv om r , ft i u .

A short time after he would tn hold them. No unlmeal hand mil , appear an j ma ke hi 3 p resence known, be permitted to grasp the ! sceptre. ! and would give an excuse that it was The fame acquired by Gen. Grant, by ids magnificent military achieve ments, has, it appears, aroused the ap prehension of this Washington Commit tee. Some time ago these dark game sters, professed great admiration for that officer, and determined to show it iiy making him a Lieutenant-General. About that time be was beginning to be talked of for the Presidency, and immediately he began to lessen in" the Committee's estimation. The result is, that after a couple eff months reflection and intrigu ing, the name of Grant has been struck from the hill originally intended exclu sively for his advancement. ■ From these instances it will be seen that the Com rilittee superintending the next Presiden tial election has hern, and is, quite in dustrious; in fact we may say that it is crowded with business. How thm can the people expect the Administra tion to be successful against rebellion'' The minds of those composing it arc occupied with dark intrigues against each other, content to let the nation per ish. Were it not for their frequent and remorseless acts of conscription, wo would soon forget that we are at war at all. While the country is rocking in the throes of revolution, we have in the Administration no less than two aspir ants sfiheming against each other for the succession. This the most shameful of political audacity on record, and strong ly illustrates the weak and timid charac ter of President Lincoln. This “greater than Washington or Jackson,” or— according to the Pittsburgh Gazette— Henry of Navarre, having, in the per son of one of his “chief clerks, an open, a deficit and abusive competitor for his office, shows him more the milk-sop than one of the commanding characters claimed for him by his toadies. Were den. Jackson alive and President, we should live to see one of the cabinet in triguing to supplant him. That stern old hero would stand no such nonsense; and the fact of Lincoi.n tolerating it shows him to be of so weak and feeble a temper as to be despised even by bis own household. Such a character docs very •(veil to be moulded to suit the purpose of the contractors and sharpers who are using him, but when brought in contact With men of genuine ability it appears very small indeed. TME COMING DRAFT Our neighbor, the OatetU, of Saturday in a well-timed and patriotic article urg ing the people to volunteer in order to avoid the draft, among other good things remarked as follows: We hear that, la some localities, wealths ant influential,persons have refused to contribute eithet'money orexertioas.to free their respective district from the draft, t hey have, so far as ■their inflaence extended, Thrown cold water on the whole bounty movement. If our contemporary will push iu in quiries it will find that those who arc "now rtfusing to contribute for the pros ecution of the war, aye those who from tire commencement of hostilities have shown their “loyalty'' in mere prattle ttgtiliisf the rebels. They are fierce too in,tseir dentmwations of their net ghbors. w tut haye shown their fnith by the pe i ■ fortnaneoof good works. These people have no heart in the war; they are anx ious to see it go on because of an un relenting hate they bear the Southern people; hut even their hatred, will no: prompt them to contribute even for the 1 destruction of slavery.

It is most probable, in fact, that this distin guished General is, more than anybody else, responsible for the success with which Streight and his chums made their exitfiom the Libby. The experi ence and example o£the one was an ad mirable lesson for the other. ! only little fun —“just deviling the clerk. 5 ' ■ On one occasion, when this tiring had occurred once too often, he was called . up for punishment, when he plead very earnestly, with a broad good-natured ; grin, that he was "only joking, and was rolled up in his blanket when his name was called." He was excused this time with a warning, lie good care to keep better hours in quarters, while tin work continued below to its completion. Immediately after the escape was db , covered and the tirst to go in pursuit. 'Mr. John Ligon, Assistant Clerk, with Orderly Hatcher, Warden K. K. Turner ! anil two policemen went off in the direr | tiou of the Peninsula; and up to yester day evening had signalized their prompt , ness and energy by the recapture of eight | of the fugitives, who they picked up on the roads. Fourteen others were brought l in during Wednesday night and vrstcr day, by pickets on the (’hiekahominy. Several were captured at Bottom's Bridge, some in Hanover, but the larger number only a few miles from the city. Intelli gence was obtained that a number oi them were trying to get through in the ! direction of Fredericksburgh. Another batch, recaptured m that direction, is looked for to-day. We jrivu below the ' list.of those, who had up to six o’clock i last evening been returned tojlheir old j quarters at the Libby. The energy and solicitude of Major Turner are subjeit* . of deserved commendation. I One of Hie captures ot Wednesday y\h j made by "an American citizen of African , descent." The dusky captor was engug ,ed in a matutinal "dig" in his potato , patch, when he observed the tugiiive ofti j cer streaking it across the held. Seeing , that he wore suspiciously blue garments, ! the darky hailed him and asked him j where he was "gwine*' Something m I the effect of “nowhere" being the reply, 1 the darky, with courage and patriotism worthy of immortally, brought his hoc , to a "charge," and responded, “Yes you is, dough-— j*ou done broke out o' one o’ Jem prisons—come along —you got to go wid me.” He marched him to the house, handed him over to his master, and re turned to his potato patch, covered with glory. The Yankee arrived, under due guard, yesterday morning. Hantoi'i Parewfll Address to the Sen ate—A Verj* Good Specimen of Buu comtae. Thefollowing is a report oftke remarks : of]lon. Rout. M. T.

I i should he insensible , indeed, if I could . be indifferent to any mark of respect or | regard from those with shorn I have worked so long in friendly association : and to whom I am bound by the ties of a , common and a holy cause.' j 7 he sc33 ' on which wc are about to bring to a close is perhaps, the most eventful in cur history, and its results have proved our determined purpose t.> throw the whole energies of our people into the war It has been in no stinted and with no sparing band, that we have plueed men in the Held and ini posed the taxes in-.-essury to maintain and support them. For what is life, nnd what is property in comparison with personal freedom ami national independ em-e ? If there be any man who is dis posed i.i count the cost or hesitate at the sacrifice, let him reflect, on the one hand, upoijahe nature of the subjugation with which we are threatened, and estimate, on the other, the pricedess fruits of victorv—peace, liberty and independ cnee, unrivaled opportunities for moral, material and social development, and u renown which the proudest nations of the earth might admire and envy. The evidence which are being given of the fixed and unalterable purposes -of our-people to spare no effort and to Imi tate at no sacrifice which may he neces sary to support the cause upon which j they have staked their all, to the impartial observer the best'augury of the success j which we feel and believe to be certain j and assured. We feelit to be certain I because we know that after three years j of such u war the piost efficient armjy which we have ever placed in the field, and that we can command the rcsonree to maintain and support it, uot only now, but f„v n- long a period as may he neces. sary to achieve our independence, i Enough lias already been done by the j people of the Cm. federate States to eharac- '• terize the contest on their part as being among the most gloriouS*of those which are.commemorated on the page of histOTy. When has the world beheld a nobler spectacle than that of a whole people springing to arms in defense of thetr lib erties, and maintaining the war for three long yearn by levies er< matte —the living pressing forward with unflinching will t and unfaltering devotion to take the nla- i ees of the dead, who fell where they held the front ranks of battle.

Ami yet, if we had fallen, as they seem most erroneously to have supposed at the commencement of the struggle,Nvhnt a wail of humanity would have ascended to heaven to demand judgment against them from Him who rules the destinies of nations, fur having permitted the suffering which the mere expression of public opinion at one time might have saved. But, when we have ac hieved the victo ry and won our independence, it will be a proud thought to know that we shall owe them only to God and ourselves, and that wo are under no obligation to any other nation for alliance and assis tance, The liberty which is bought by Jin- blood of heroes nml martyrs i- al ways the most jealously and faithfully preserved, and the teachings of even one year of such a war as this, in regard to the conduct of public affairs,, may be more valuable to a people than the expe rience of a whole country of peace. Senators, you are about to return to your homes. Be it yours to cheer the the hearts of the people, and to strength en the arm of our defense. If you speak to the farmers and producers, Temiijd them of their heroic defenders in the field, who stand as a living wall between them and the unspeakable woe and op pression of such a subjugation as that with which we have been threatened. Tell them it is their duty to feed and clothe the gallant men who protect them, and to see tn it that they discharge the dutes with no niggard heart or stinted hand. If you speak in the camps, tell the soldier that the eyes of the country anil the world are fixed up-m him; re mind him < f the.mighty interest* which are staked upon the issues of this war, and truly may you say to him that victory in such a contest will bring to him a lame which shall be imperishable as time itself, and above all which adom9 the Roman or the Grecian name. If it be your own heart with whiclr von cuinmufie, see if there be cherished in it any emotion of unholy ambition or any selfish aspiration which interfere with the singleness iff your pursuit of the one great object, ami if there be, pluck it out and cast it from \ oil For, after dis charging tin- dm it-.-, w huh w i- owe to God, then* should be one hope, one interest, one dcsi?e, and all should be rom-enira ted in that great and Indy cause upon which we have staked, not only fortune, family, and home, but pirM>n:il liberty and national independence. And now, Senators, imploring, as 1 do, the Divine Messing upon you hnd upon our cause, and wishing that w«- may all meet here in May next, to miss no familiar face and find no place made vacant by death, but,with renewed hopesrefresM d en ergies, to discharge our duties to the country, 1 offer to eurh and all of you the rigid band of friend ship and of fellow ■ ship, and bid you an affect innate fa re w< 11.
