Connecticut Legislature SPECIAL SESSION. fifonday Oct 14. SENATE—Prayer by Rev. E. P. Parker. Res continuing the unfinished business of the May Session 1861 to the May SESsion 1862, passed. The bill for an act amending the military law, taken upon motion of Mr. Plait who ex- plained its provisions, and the necessity of doing something to create an active militia for self protection. “’0 have a seacoast of one hundred miles which is now nearly dc- fenceless. He believed that there needed nothing but a federal reverse, to find men in arms in Connecticut,rcady to assist JefiZDavis if that-fellow once had possession of Wash- ington, and was marching northward. We should, in such a case, want something with which to attend to traitors at honie. . The discussion which followed took a Wide range. Mr. \Vightmaii moved an amendment which was adopted, in the graduation of taxes. Instead of taxing the several stuns mentioned in the original bill, Mr. Wight- man’s amendment simplifies the computation by making it read as follows: “-———all per- sons enrolled as aforesaid. “11059 taxable property shall be assessed and set in the list at $1000 or less, $1; all persons enrolled as aforesaid, whose taxable property shall be assessed at more than $1000, twenty five cents for each additional thousand dollars. Mr. Biiscoe otl‘cred an amendment to the fourth section, that men already, en- rolled should not be affected by the repeal of the fourth section of the Military Law.— Adopted. The bill then passed. Res that it is inexpedient to elect a general railroad commissioner until the next Iegular Session, came from the House which had ad- hered to its original action. The Senate fol- lowed suit, aud killed the resolution. The bill laying a direct tax came from the House recommitted with instructions. Sen- ate adhered. Adjourned. -Housu.—Prayer by Rev. Mr. Parker. 'The House adhered to the passage of the resolution postponing the election of a rail- road commissioner. Resolution authorizing the Governor to ap- point persons to assist him in adjusting the accounts with the general governnient,passed. Res instructing Senators and Representa- tives in Congress to use their influence in favor of repealing the portion of the direct tax law laying taxes on income, or to secure it an amendment of the law allowing each State to receive the amount in such inauner as it chooses. Bill making provisions for deducting from the claims against the general government. the amount apportioned to this State by the direct tax law, passed.” Resolution laying an additional State tax of one mill on a'dollar.” A motion to make the matter the special order for 10 o’clock to-morrow, was lost—59 . to 60. . The motion to recommit was tried by yeas and nays. and carried—109 to 20. Adjourned. Tuesday, Oct. 15. SENATE.—Mr.Platt introduced a resolution directing the messenger to remove the por- traits of Isaac Toucey and Thomas H. Sey- mour, from the Senate Chamber. He sup- ported the resolution by saying that he did not believe that any man here looked upon them as true and loyal men. In support of this belief he referred to the late course of Mr. Toucey in distributing the navy over the world, anti the letter and Legislative resolu- tions of Gov. Seymour which were made public during the last summer. All other iving Governors whose portraits hang .upon these walls, take their stand upon the Side pf the country, and support the government in its struggle for life. . Mr. Johnson replied, stating that he is as good a Union man as any in Connecticut, and if he believed the allegations of Mr. Plait. he would vote for the resolution himself. He said none of the allegations were sustained by facts,and he moved to refer the resolution to a committee for investigation. He believ- ed both these men to be in favor of the gov- ernment to day, even if they thought other- wise awhile ago. He had heard Mr. Toucey express the strongest Union sentiments with- in a very few (lays. Mr. Platt read from the report of the See- eretary of the Navy showing that the vessels and arms of the government were so dis- posed as to favor the rebel cause. He called these remarkable transactions, if not treach- ery. The people of the State believe Mr. Toucey to be a traitor at heart, and that it was his duty to explain his position if.he claimed to be loyal now, instead of sitting still and holding his peace. He then read from the letter of Gov. Seymour, written last. summer, and his Legislative resolutions of the same time. If Gov. Seymour was really 10 al, he thought his voice d‘ "M now be heard in the other House, of which he is. a member, urging forward a pail-“nu; and Vig- orous support of government. The mere fact that it was necessary for a committee to investigate the patriotism of these men, was sufficient reason for the passage of the reso- lution. Mr. Byingtou said aletter of Gov.Seymour was shown him by an old democrat of this district, who gave him a copy of it. He sta— ted his convictions of duty in this question, and should vote for the resolution, but wish- ed it amended so that the comptroller could, u on receiving evidence of their loyalty, re- place the portraits upon the walls. Mr. Briscoe said that Mr. Toucey was a man of acknowledged intellect, and if he eiiuld sit in the cabinet with Cobb and Floyd and listen to their traitorous discussion and not know their intentions, then his repu- tation for intelligence and intellect was uu~ merited. ..Aftci' some discussion further, the resolu- tion was referred to a committee by the cast: lug vote of the chair. It was then reconsid— ered, Mr. Byingmn’s amendment was adopt- ed, and the resolution passed. Yeas—Briscoe, Platt, Wightnian, Byiugton J. Johnson, Campbell, Simmons, Jones, My- gatt, Wright, Preston, Alvord—12. Nays—E. Johnson, Holcomb, Ives, Brown Sutton, Bush—6. Absent—Converse, Ambler, Coffin. Resolution confirming the appointment of J, B. ,Euncs as Quarter Master General, assed. Adjourned. House—Prayer by Rev. Mr. Crane, Resolutions approving the position to the President in refusing to make the war one of emancipation and endorsing a resolution of Congress stating the object of the war were introduced by Mr. Mitchell of Stratl‘ord, who made a speech in favor of them. 'The yeas and hays were ordered and the motion to lay on the table was carried—113 to 70. ' Bill allowing the appointment of an assis— tant surgeon for each battery of artillery and battalion of cavalry, and a chaplain for the latter, passed, Wednesday, Oct. 16, 1861. SENATE—Prayer by Rev, Mr. Dennison, a member of the House. Mr. Platt introduced a bill exempting State bonds from taxation, passed. .Res. paying the Senators as per debenture bill, passed and George Robinson was paid $5 for making the bill. Res. exempting State bonds from taxation, came from the House rejected; Senate ad- hered. Mr. Ives was appointed a committee to in- form the House that the Senate lias no fur- ther business, and is ready to meet them in convehtion for final adjournment. The bill exemptiii State bonds from taxa- tion came from the I‘ once with a request for a committee of conference; Mr. Platt was appointed, Ros. providing for the publication of the usual number of copies of the acts passed by this General Assembly, rejected. On recommendation of the conference committee, the Senate adhered to its action on the bill exempting State bonds from taxa- ation. The committee on the appointment of a Ma or General report that the whole matter hp better be left with the Governor; ac- 'ce ted. , es. directing the Clerk of the Senate to procure the printing of 300 copies of the acts ofthis General Assembly, and alter giving each Senator and State officer one copy, to place the rest on sale, passed. Committee from the House announced a readiness for a Convention. Mr. Briscoe ap- pointed a committee to inform that bodv that the Senate would meet them at once—’— Upori his return the Senators proceeded to the House, and the Senate stood adjourned sine d' . HOUsu.—.Pi-;iyer by itcv. Mr. Dennison. Th ~ res. declaring it expedient to reorgau. ize thv: militia on the basis of the old militia law was taken up and rejected, B..l_repealiug the $10 exemption clause of the militia law rejected. ~ Bill exempting the state bonds. from taxa- tion rejected aiter'briefdcbale. The tax bill came from the Senate with a vote (of adherence to the amendment of that body. The resolution approving the policy of the President on the emancipation question was taken tip, and the motion to indefinitely postpone was withdrawn. Mr. Wooster was Opposed to the introduc- tions, but they were here and must be dis- posed of. He was in favor of the passage of the second resolution, as it was what Con- gress had affirmed, But the first resolution he objected to, as it only endorsed 011.; single act of the administration. He moved to strike out the first resolution and insert the following: Resolved, That rebels against the Constitu- tion anti laws of the United States have for- l’eitcd lights that are thereby granted to loyal citizens, and that we, in behalf of the people of the State of Connecticut, hereby solemnly declare it to be the true policy of the govern- ment to seize and confiscate all property and every source of wealth or income now pos- sessed by any in open rebellion, within the United States. Resolved, That in this hour of peril it is the duty of every loyal citizen to proclaim, in terms unmistakable, his determined support of the present national administration, and that, at all hazard and every sacrafice, “This Union must and shall be preservct .” “And for the support of these declarations, with a firm reliance on the protection of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each oth— er our livos, our fortunes and our sacred honor.” Mr. Kendrick thought itunfair to strike out the first resolution. He was ready to en- dorse both resolutions, as well as the substi- stitute, and should be a coward it he did not. The rebels are confiscating all the property of loyal men, and we should confiscate theirs when we can reach it. He hoped that while calling upon him to vote for the substitute, gentlemen would let the first resolution stand. Mr. Carter spoke in favor of endorsing the administration fully, if it is to be endorsed at all. He was opposed to the resolution, be- cause it was considered as rebuking Gen. Fremont. The President is com peteut to manage the whole matter himself, as he can at any time reduce that oflicer from a major general to a private citizen. If Gen. Fremont has done wrong, is it right for us to rebuke him? Now when he is engaged in a life and death struggle, is it fair, is it manly, for us to add anything to the trouble which weighs upon hie heart? He is doing all he can to retrieve our fortunes in Missou- ri, and if he has erred, we should not add our rebuke to the cries oi newspapers and others. If any one is really to do this let him show it by his vote; I aiu not. Adjourned to 2 P. M. AFTERNOON. Mr. Mitchell wished to withdraw his res- olutions, which were under discussion at the time of adjournment, which he did. Resolution instructing Senators and Rep- resentatives in Congress to use their influence in favor of repealing the income tax, &c., was taken up and passed. House adhered to its vote on the bill ex— empting State bonds from taxation. The committee on filling the office of Mn- jor General reported in favor of leaving the governor to fill the vacancy till the meeting of the next Assembly; report accepted, Resolution of thanks to the Speaker, and Mr. Deming appropriately responded. He dwelt eloquently on the greatness of the re- bellion, and the necessity of more earnest iuid united efforts to put it down and save the government. He deemed it to be the duty of every man who had the capacity to go forth to fight and he referred to the fact that he had accepted a commission from the Governor. He said he should devote his talents to his position, and if he found himself incapabl of sustaining that position, he should at leaflave the courage to resign. Messrs. Carte d Russel were appointed to wait upon the Senate and inform that body that the House is ready to meet them in Joint Convention for the purpose of final adjournment. IN CONVENTION. The Senate entered the Hall of the House, and the President of the Senate called the Convention to order. Mr. Mygatt of the Senate and Messrs. Car- ,ter and Burrall ot the House were appointed to wait on the Governor and inform him that the two houses were in Convention and Leady to receive any communication from im. The Committee performed their duty and reported that the Governor had no commu- nication to make. Rev. Dr. Ilawes ofl‘ered prayer, and on motion the President of the Convention de- clared the General Assembly adjourned sine die. The members then held a session in the Treasurer’s office, and dispersed. ~<.>-o——-~———— W The Chicago Post, which was the home organ of Mr. Douglas, and edited by his personal friend, Mr. Sheahan, says: “Mr. Douglas’ plan to preserve the Demo- cratic party was that the Democrats should run this war, as they had run every other war since the foundation of this Union; in fact make it a Democratic war and fight it with all the powers of the nation, and if nec- essary to station a standing army in every one of the rebel States and by the bayonet enforce obedience to the laws. Pierce with regular troops enforced, the laws in Boston, why should not Lincoln do the same thing in Charleston? He was for dropping all lo- cal issues and controversies until after the war was closed, and then, in an Union pre- served, he was for raising once more the old Democratic banner with the names of a hundred battles for that Union, and again dispute with the old political enemy the con- test at the ballot-boq.” - .-._.,,,..-.__.,....._. —The city of Philadelphia has received six thousand five hundred Prussian miiskets a present from the Prussian government.— They arrived in the “Bavaria." 1“ appo—rx.—.__ WThe Mobile Register has a letter lrom Pensacola, under date of 25th ult., which says; “We have reports of several expeditions to the South.
