with fear were brought to Gen Howard at intervals till late in tbe night They were usually those who were too poor to move away from their homes Some were desirous of going across the river saying they could not live through another such a day as tbe one just past In an incognito walk through the streets and among his troops unoooompanied Gen Howard found in a store ia a remote part of the city a man talking with some iff our soldiers and boasting of what he had done for the Confederacy It seems they had made him believe they were soldiers Gen 11 listened a moment and found this fellow to ba

Feiaenden upon Summary Arrests Senator Fessenden delivered the speech of the session thus for in the Senate yesterday evening upon the subject of summary arrests It was very able and as fair as it was able He did not pretend to deny that the Administration had made serious blunders in this matter of arrests but he argued that all Governments will make mistakes and we must look at the ifitentfbnd the necessities of the situation In view of the oondition of the country and tbe patriotic intent of tbe Administration he would not vote for any resolution which would embarrass the Administration Tbe speech was eminently courteous though Powell of Kentucky had Men very insolent in his manner and matter in his speech delivered before Mr Fessenden took the floor The most severe thing uttered by Mr Fessenden was the passage in which no reminded Powell that all he had said about the violation of the Constitution had been better said by his late colleague now Brigadier General in the rebel army! The Senate would have liked very much to have applauded this sentiment but it do It was said in Pitt most sarcastic style Several New England Senators have spoken ably in the course of this debate in the Senate So fat Mr Wilson Mr Hale Mr Clark Mr Morrill and Mr Fessenden have participated in the debate five 'New England men It is noticeable that the Republicans from New England are rather more eager in their defence of the Constitution in this matter than tbe Western Republicans The fact is that Western Republicans have not yet recovered from the shock of their defeat in the autumnal elections and they are a little afraid of their constituents at homo and of future contests Wash Cor Traveller 12th Allotments by Maine Soldiers The Augusta correspondent of the Bangor Whig furnishes
