CONGRESSIONAL.
A special dispatch to the Pittsburg Gazette,
from Washington, dated February 25th, con
tains the following reference to the proceed
ings In the House on the "Conscription bill,"
(a synopsis of which we give in another col
umn): Tho final pissage of the Senate's Conscrip
tion bill In the House, to-day, by the over
whelming majority of 116 to 49, gives great
satisfaction, contrary to the general expecta
tion. The bill was at last opened to amend-
ments, and was divested of two or three nn
Important features, on which the tory democ
racy have, for the last three days, based all
their opposition. The point to which, they
urged the most objection was that authorizing
the Provost Marshals to arrest persons who
resisted or interfered with he draft, and hold
them till the draft was completed before hand
ing them over to the civil authorities. It was
amended so as to have them delivered over at
one for trial In civil courts. Another point
authorizing the Provost Marshals to arrest for
treasonable practices was wholly stricken cut,
the existing legislation being thought suffi
cient. A vigorous effort was made to strike out the
Clause authorizing the Secretary of War to
hire substitutes, drafted persons paying Dot
over three hundred dollars tor exemption, but
It failed. A clause was added providing for
the surer punishment of spies. None of the
vital features of the bill are touched in any
way. An analysis of the vole, by which it
passed, s-owg some curious results. Ken
tucky, which has been more dependent on
National troops for pretection and more clam
orous for their aid than any other one State,
cast nine votes solid against this absolutely
necessary measure for keeping up onr armies.
Mr. Casey alone voting for it. Maryland, an
other border State, hitherto supposed more
. lukewarm in our cause than Kentucky, cast
hor vote solid for the bill, Henry May alone
excepted. In opposition to these Maryland
patriots, and side by side, with nenry May,
voted Vallandigham.Vorhees, Little Sam Cox
. and our other tory Democrats of the Uortb.
The leading Republican Senators express the
'hope that they will be able to get the nonse
amendments through the Senate without diffi-
THE COKSCBIPTIOIf BILL.
We give below a condensed synopsis of this
bill, by far, the most important measure which
has been before Congress :
The preamble of the bill declares that an in
surrection and rebellion exists In the United
States; that it is the duty of the Government
to suppress this rebellion, to guarantee to
each State a Republican form of Government,
to preserve the public tranquility, and that to
this end a military force is indispensable.
All able bodied male citiaens of the United
States, between the ages of twenty and forty
five, are enrolled, and constitute the national
forces. Persons of foreign birth who have de
clared their intention to become citizens of
United States are also Included.
The persons exempted from this enrollment
are as follows : Those who are physically and
mentally unfit for service ; the Vice President
of the United States and the Judges of the
Courts of the United States ; the heads of the
various Departments of the Government, and
the Governors of the several States ; the only
son of aged and infirm parents, dependent up
on his labor for their support; if there be two
or more sons the father, or in the event of bis
death, the mother may elect which shall be
exempt ; the only brother of children not over
twelve years old, whose parents are dead ; all
families having two members in the military
service of the United States as non commis
sioned officers, musicians, or piivates, the res
idue of such family, not exceeding two, shall
be exempt. Persons convicted of felony are
also exempted.
The National forces are divided iato two
classes. The first comprises all persons sub
ject to do military duty between the ages of
twenty and thirty-five j all unmarried persons
above the age of thirty-five and under the age
of forty five.
The second class comprises all other per
sons liable to do military duty, and it is pro
vided that these shall not be called into the
service until the first clans has been called.
The bill divides the United States Into dis
tricts, the District of Columbia constitutes
one; each Territory of the United States con
stitutes one or more, as the President shall
direct, and each congressional district con
stitntesone. It provides for each district a
provost marshal, with the rank, pay, and emol
uments of a captain of cavalry, who shall be
under the direction and subject to the orders
of a provost marshal general. The chief's of
fice shall be at the seat of Government, form
ing a separate bureau of the War Department.
The marshals ate to be appointed by tho
President tf the United States.
These marshals are charged with the follow
ing duties : They are to search for an arrest
all deserters. The chief is to communicate
to his subordinates all orders of the President
for calling oat the national forces; to famish
blanks and instructions for drafting ; to keep
copies of all enrollment lists, and to petform
all other duties precribed by the President.
All deserters are to be arrested, wherever
found, and the subordinates are to report to
their chief all treasonable practices that come
to their knowledge; to seize all spies of the
enemy. A board ot enrollment is to be es
tablished in each district, one of whom is to
be a surgeon.
The di.ties of this board are prescribed, as
follows:
Surgeons charged with the duty ot such in
spection shall not receive from any person
money or other valuables. He shall not make
false or incorrect report. If he does so, he
shall be tried by a court-martial, and, on con
viction thereof, be punished by fine not ex
ceeding five hundred dollars nor less than two
hundred, and be imprisoned at the discretion
of the court, and dismissed from the service.
All persons drafted, exceeding the required
number, are to be dismissed, and paid their
travel, &c.
AUporSons drafted and furnishing substi
tutes are to be exempt from military duty for
the period for which they were drafted.
Volunteers now in the service of the United
States that re-enlist to serve one year, after
the expiration of their present term of service,
shall be entitled to a bounty of fifty dollars.
These who re-enlist to serve for two years shall
receive one hundred dollars bounty.
Regiments of volunteers from the same
State reduced to one-half of the maximum
nnmber may be consolidated ; bnt no company
so formed shall exceed the maximum number
prescribed by law.
The bill provides that officers absenting
themselves from their commands without leave
may be tried by a court martial and reduced
to the ranks,and be made to serve three years,
or during the war. No soldier is allowed to
sell, barter, loan, pledge, or give away any
clothes or equipments received on entering
the service, neither can any persons except
such as are authorized by law, receive them
from him.
It punishes all persons who entice men to
desert, with a fine not exceeding five hundred
dollars, and imprisonment not to exceed two
year, nor less than six months.
It also provides the following penalties a
gaiost all persons who may resist the 'draft:
They may be summarily arrested by the Pro
vost Marshal and confined in prison till after
the draft is completed, when they are to be
turned over to tike civil authorities, and upon
conviction, to be punished by a fine not ex
ceeding five hundred dollars, or by imprison
ment not exceeding two years, or by both pun
ishments. - -
Any person drafted may famish &a accept
able substitute to take his place, or he may
pay such sum, not exceeding three hundred
dollars, as the Secretary of War shall deter
mine. Any person failing to report, after due
service of notice, or to furnish a substitute, or
to pay the required sum therefor, shall be
deemed a deserter, and shall be treated as
such, or he must show that he is not liable to
military duty. All drafted persons are to be
carefully examined by the surgeons, and re
ported upon whether fit for military dntv or
not. They shall divide the district into sub
districts" of convenient size, not exceeding
two, withont the direction of the Secretary of
War. They shall appoint an enrolling officer
for each sub-district and furnish him with
proper blanks and Instructions.
Copies of each enrollment list shall be trans
mitted to the Provost Marshal General.
The enrollment of each class is to be made
separately. Persons thus enrolled are liable
to serve three years or during the War, and are
to be treated precisely as are the volunteers.
The President is authorized to eatl upon
each district for the number of men wanted.
and the enrolling board shall make the draft
for the required number and fifty per cent, in
addition. The first drawn are to stand first on
the roll, and the second stand second, and so
on. All persons drawn shall be notified of
the same within ten days thereafter. They
shall be required to appear at a designated
rendezvous to report for duty.
The bill provides that the President shall is
sue a proclamation calling upon all deserters
to return to their respective regiments within
a certain specified time, or be punished when
taken as the law directs.
Certain regulations are laid down for the
government of courts-martial, and the duties
of the Judge Advocate and reporters, &c,
specified.
It provides for the pnnishment of murder,
assault and battery with intent to kill, arson,
perjury, rape and other like crimes, penalties
such as are authorized by the civil law in the
territory where the offence is committed.
All officers absent from duty on account of
sickness are to receive half pay. Furloughs
may be granted to five per cent of the non-commissioned
officers for good conduct in the line
of duty, not to exceed thirty days.
The President of the United States is au
thorized and empowered, during the present
rebellion, to call forth the national forces bv
dralt.
The President may assign all persons draft
ed to such corps, regiments,' or branches as
the exigencies of the service may require.
Persons detailed for special service are not
to receive any extra piy beyond that allowed
to enlisted men.
It repeals the One Hundred and Fifty-fourth
and the One Hundred and Sixty-second Gen
eral Orders of the War Department.
The concluding section of this bill provides
for the compensation of certain officers and
others connected with the srmy.
We have thus given the substance of this bill
in as succinct a form as we could and do any
thing like justice to it. We believe it willbe
found to be a pretty accurate condensation of
the bill.embractngall of its principal features.
THEY ARE SPIT UP03ST.
One of the most humilitating spectacles
presented by the results of the war, Is that
exhibited in the attitude ot the butternuts or
peace men of the free and loyal States. Despi
sed and mistrusted by their loyal fellow citi
zens.scornadandexecrated by the men who are
periling their lives in defence of the life of the
Government, -at length they are receiving
their proper deserts from the traitors, Every
rebel journal which floats northward, teems
with rebel anathemas on the peace and coru
promise.men of the north. The traitors them
selves denounce the butternuts as cowards
too cowardly to strike a Government (Lin
coln's, as they call it) which they hate, and
still more cowardly to assist those the south
ern conspirators) whom they protest to love.
The conscriptors, therefore spit, upon the nor
thern butternuts and peace men. They pro-j
ciaim ineir determination to exterminate the
whole breed, if they ever get north and the
also declare their unalterable purpose to
wage thU war until slavery is extended or
made "respectable" in every State once com.
I'osing thej-old Union." This is the rebel an
swer to the peace Democracy of the north.
It leaves the butternuts in a sad plight. They
have no alternative now, but to fight for the
defence of the government which they have
been strenously endeavoring to betray and
ruin, or bend their necks to the stroke of the
blade in the hands of their former aleies and
present contemners. Harrisburg Telegraph.
FROM KENTUCKY.
At one oclock on February 2Gtb, twenty
freight cars, mostly laden with individuals
going -from Louisville to Nashville, were
seized by about sixty mounted rebels,at Wood
burn, twelve qriHea below Bowling Green, and
burned. The rebels then fired up the locomo
tive and sent it on at full speed, supposing
that it would come in collision with the pas
senger train coming from Nashville. Luckily,
the late rains bad so injured the bridges that
the passenger train bad returned to Nashville
and the locomative, having exhausted its
steam, stopped on the track doing no damage.
This was a moat fiendish attempt to destroy
human life.
The rebels made a raid into Kentucky, last
week, bnt the statements in regard to it are
very conflicting. Oae story is that the raid
was a fizzle, and that the rebels bad skedad
dled and were overtaken at Ticktown on the
25th, and badly whipped, tarvelling towards
Pound Gap. The other is that Judas Breck
inridge, with a force of 20,000, is rushing
down upon Lexington, from Cumberland Gap.
The latter story is not generally credited
bnt, if thrue, the rebels will be warmly gree
ted by our boys, who are in the alert for them.
About 100 of Mojgan's band have captured
the steamer Hetty Gilman, with forage and
provisions, on Barren river. The captain and
passengers were paroled.
BATTLE OF STONE'S RIVER.
In his official report of the battle of Mnr
Creesboro, Gen. Rosecrans states that our en
tire number actually engaged was 43,000;
Our loss in killed and wounded 8.76S, or twen
ty per ent of the whole force. The rebels
engaged were about 63,000, and their loss, es
timating from actual loss in three divisions,
Is set down at 14,669," or about twenty seven
per cent.
IMPORTANT LETTER.
- In the coarse of a debate in Congress, on
the 24th February. Hon. Thaddena Stevens
read a letter of Gen. Scott,' copied from the
original on file in the War Department, which
ereated no little sensation. The letter is as
follows :

Washisctok, Oct. 4, 1861- J
Hon. S. Cameron , Secretary of War: Sir':
You are, I believe, aware that I hailed the ar
rival here of Major-Gen. McClellan as an e
vent of happy consequence to the country and
the army. Indeed, if I did not call for him, I
heartily approved of the suggestion, and gave
him the most cordial reception and support.
He, however, bad hardly entered upon bis
new duties, when encouraged to communicate
directly with the President and certain mem
bers of the Cabinet, he in a few days forgot
that be bad any immediate commander, and
has now long prided himself upon treating me
with uniform neglect, running into disobedi
ence of orders. ', Of the smaller matters, neg

following. To suppress an irregularity mosn

With this order fresh in his memory, Major
Gcn. McClellan addressed two important
communications to the Secretary of War, on
respectively the 19th and 20th ot the same
month, over my head : and how many since
to the Secretary, and even to the President
direct, I have not inquired, but many, 1 have
no doubt, beside daily oral communications
with the same high functionaries, all without

E. D. Tow.nsexd, Ajs't. Adj't.-Gen.
Eighteen days have now elasped, and not
the slightest respect has been shown to either
of these orders by Maj.-Gen. McClellan. Per
haps he will say, in respect to the latter, it
has been difficult for him to procure exact
returns of divisions, brigades, Sec. No doubt;
but why not have given me proximate returns,
sue!) as he so eagerly furnished the President
and certain Secretary. Has, then, a senior no
corrective power overs junior officer in case
ol such persistent neglect and disobedience 1
The remedy by arrest and trial before a court
martial would probably soon cure the evil; but
it has been feared a conflict of authority near
the head of the army would be highly encour
aging to the enemies, and depressing to the
friends of tho Union. Hence mv lone for
bearance, and continuing (though but nomi
nally) in duty. I snail try to bold out till the
arrival of Maj.-Gen. Halleck, when, as his
presence will give me increased confidence in
the safety of the Union, and being, as I am,
unable to ride in the saddle or walk, by rea
son of dropsy in my feet and legs and paraly
sis in the small of the back, I shall definately
retire from the army.
I have the honor to remain, with
spect, your most obedient servant,

THE TEXAS TRAGEDIES.
We reseived yesterday, byway of Monte
rey, Mexico, two Texas newspapers of not very
late date one from San Antonio, and the oth
er from Houston ; and both of them' contain
tales which make the blood run cold. The
San Antonio Herald coolly says tbat the num
ber of Unionists in Western and Northern
Texas was "small at first, and they are becom
ing every day less ; for in the mountains near
Fort Clark, and along the Rio Grande, their
bodies are bleaching in the sun, and in the
counties of Wise and Denton their bodies are
suspended by scores from black jacks. They
were warned in time to leave the country;
and choosing to remain, and rely upon the
enemy with whom their Government is at war
they must expect to take the consepnences of
their choice." To the tragical picture here
given, naught of horror could be added by
auytniug wc might say.
The Houston Telegraph also mentions the
executions of Unionists that are goiug on in
that part of the State, and indicates that trials
and hangings perpetually progress iu all the
counties. Altogether the suderings of our
brethern in those far-off regions have been in
calculable. Whether our symphaties will do
these confessors any and martyrs any good or
not, we cannot repress these symphaties. The
Texas Unionists have sutfered nobly and died
sublimely. They bave been slain by traiiora,
and buried like felons. May Heaven and Gen
eral Banks grant those of them who still live
a speedy deliverence. New York Times.
