EY TUB K. W. USB. Exclusively for the Journal. COTORSSIQNAI,. XXXVII CONGRESS FIRST SESSION1 Wabhtngton, Jan. 6. Sbsate. Mr. Neamith presented the credentials of Hon. Benjamin Stark who was appointed Senator to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Senator Baker. Mr. Fessenden moved that the administration of the oath be suspended for the present, and the credentials of Mr. Stark, together with certain papers which he held in hirf (Fessenden's hand, be referred to the Judiciary Committee. The papers were well attested by many of-the most respectable portion of the inhabitants of Portland. These papers state that Mr. Stark is an open and avowed seceessionist, that he defends the cause of the South' and had given utterance to statements at war with tbe government, such aa approving of the attack on Fort Sumter and -declarinsr that in case of war, he would sell bis property and go Soutn and fight for the rebels. He, (Fessenden,) had examined the papers with deliberation, and therefore, made tbe motion. Mr. Bright said there was no preceJent for such a motion. He never knew of a case where a Senator had been refused the oath. He thought that tbe Senator had better be sworn, and then left the Senate to take cognizance of tbe matter properly. Never bad baser falsehoods been offered than those in regard to himself, which had been sent to the Senate here. He had in his pocket a copy of the New York Herald, where it was stated that he (Bright) was a Brig. Qen. in the rebel army. Mr. Fessenden said it was true there was not a precedent, but tbe slate of the conntry was without precedent and we had now to make precedents. These papers in reference to Mr. Stark, were well attested, by his neighbors and townsmen. Mr. Bayard thought tbe case had better go over until to-morrow, that tbe Senate might have time to look into it, Mr. Trumbull said the case was not without precedent, and referred to the case of Mr. Lanman of Connecticut, when the credentials were referred and also to the case of Mr. Griswold of Ohio, where the credentials were also referred. Mr. Sumner said the case was unprecedented. The Senate is not examining the loyally cf certain members. Mr. Bayard said that there Mere men in the Senate in 1812 who were opposed to tr,e war with Great Britain, and to the action of the Government. Mr. Bright said that he supposed lie wag referred to by the Senator from Massachusetts (Mr. Sumner), at any rate he was in tbe category. He (Bright), was gtad the Senate was examining, and so far as he was concerned, he was only sorry they were bo slow. He was anxious for a result. Mr. Lane thought that "sufficient for the day is the evil thereof." When the other cases come up, the Senate will be ready to vote. There conld be no difference of opinion in regard to the f.t,a. war, by any patriot. Tbe credentials of Mr. Stark and the papers handed in by Mr. Fessenden were then laid on the table for the present. Wilson presented a petition from citizens of Pennsylvania, that John C. Fremont be Appointed Lieut. General. Wilson also presented a petition . in reference to Gen. McKinstry, representing that he was confined in prison closely, in violation of the , rules of war. Mr. Richardson said he was opposed to the whole resolution. It was a subject with which they had notbiug to do, and the fooler they stopped these proceedings the better for the country. Crittenden thought the House had no power under the Constitution to inquire into matters purely military. The army is under command of the President, who is responsible for its operations. To interfere with this, therefore, would be an attempt to extend our civil jurisdiction. Even if we had the right to make such an enquiry, did not public policy forbid it? Could war be successfully conducted on such a principle? If faults have been committed, thuy are to be examined into and punished by the pniHtary tribunals. Such an enquiry n-w, would lead to future similar embirrumeuts. He believed the whole country . ts confidence in McClellan. Wa had better weaken our army, than weaken conudVftce in the Commander-in-Chief. An army of bares led by a lion, is more to be dreaded than an army of lions, led by a haT. Conkllng further explained the oi icci and purpose of his resolution, jfyijWT to Mr. Crittenden. Mr. Vallandingham said he would at nil times maintain the subordination ot the military. The British Parliament bus exercised the right of enquiry into couduct or the Crimean war, but here the Secretftry ol War bad only exercised a discretion at.oweii to him by tbe House, and it was row too late to complain of it. Lovtjoy entered his protest against the principle enunciated by the gentleumn from Kentucky, and has always believed the military should be subordinate to the civil powers. TFe are waiting in tbe fruitlear hope that the rebellion will put itself down. The idea is, if we don't hurt anybody, the rebels will return to their allegiance. HOUSE. Conkling, arising to a qnestioa a privilege, called attention to tbe fact, that on the second day of the session, a resolution was adopted in reference to the battle at Ball's Bluff. The resolution proposed no investigation into any future operations whatever. It simply requested the Secretary of rFur to inform the House whether any steps have been taken to ascertain who was responsible for the disaster. Tbe resolution was handed to tbe Adjutant General, who submitted it to the Commander-in Chief. He (Conkling) wa3 unwilling to believe that ibe Commander-in-Chief bad read the resolution, because he could not impute to him a design to trifle with the House, and return an evasive answer. If he did read it be certainly misunderstood its purport. He seemed to have received tho impression that a future inquiry was to be instituted, and that of a very general character, and he accordingly expressed an opinion to the Adjutant General, which was reported to tbe Secretary of Wat, and by the latter, transmitted to the House. The answer to the resolution did not inform the House that steps bad been taken to show who was to blame for the Ball's Bloff disaster. The response was evasive. Now, this was a disregard of the privileges of ibe House which ought to receive, and requires a prompt notice, unless we consent to a trampling on our rights. ' We should watch with a jealous eye, the right of wholesome inquiry. The inquiry related to a great National calamity, and to the most atrocious military murder ever committed in our history, and the most humiliating triumph of the rebellion a blunder so gross that every man can see it, and no one has ever dared to deny or defend it. Besides the defeat and the large loss of munitions of war, there was a sacrifice of 930 men. The resolution to

which he (Conkling) referred, was proposed

out of respect to tbe memory of those men, and in deferertca to the public propriety and sett-respect of the -nation. It was to inqnirS w-Lether tha. military authorities have taken .any steps whatever to ascertain who is responsible for the slanghter of the sans ot New . York, Pennsylvania and Massachusetts. Gen. Stone, who was in command at .the time, isa uiemhec of the regular army. .Col. Baker was aoluntecr. The respective friends of these gentlemen have raised a question as to the merits of the case, in. volving the efficiency of the regular and volunteer, service. He (Conkling) had no toleration for snch a controversy, but an inqniry was absolutely necessary. The man that is to blame, should fall upon his knees and ask pardon. If Col. Baker was responsible, most lamentably has he suffered. If Gen. Stone is responsible, a greater weigbt of guilt never rested upon any other man, than upon him. Conkling, in the course of his re. marks, said: "The Government is spending 52,000,000 a day, with over 600,000 men in the field. Whenever we have made an advance, we have been outnumbered and ignominiously defeated, and yet the House and the country are denied the right of knowing who are responsible. If we can. not hava iademnity for the past, in the name o; humanity, let us have security for the future and know who is responsible Cor tbe Ball's Bluff disaster." He said after the publication of Adjutant Geocial Thomas' report relative to General Fremont, certainly, no publication of anything connected with the army, should be suppressed. Mr. Conkling wa3 very pointed and severe in his comments. He offered a preamble reciting the resolution heretofore adopted, and the response, concluding with a resolution that, the answer to it is neither responsive or satisfactory to tbe House, and that the Secretary of War be directed to return a further answer.

Advices from Aineric.i arf nnftvorobly construed in London, and the funds are drooping in consequence. Iu Liverpool, peacefnl hopes preponderate, and cotton is rising. A number of gunboats have been ordered to .the Mersey. It is reported that l!e frigafe Algiers has been stationed off the Straits of Gibralter, to prevent tbe passage of privateers. Two .frigates were to leave Gibralter oo tho 21st for America. It was reported in Paris that the Orleans Princes are to return to Europe forthwith. The Eujlish papers are still discussing the Trent affair, iu a hopeful view that the reoel commissioners will be given up, and a war be thus averted. Pending the reception of news from America, ia response to the English advices by tbe Europa, there is much speculation as 1o what decision tbe U. S. Government will .arrive at in regard to the surrendering up Mason and Slidell. The prevailing opinion is, however, in favor of peace. War risks at Lloyds bad a downward tendency. The English papers express the hope that the French dispatch will reach Washington in time to lufilienct tbe reply of Mr. Seward. The.

A soldier will be hung to-morrow for murder the first hanging in this war. Mr. Giliett, one of the released prisoners, speaks of the Union sentiment in Richmond with the greatest poaiti veness. It is certainly large and would be effective, if the whole of Virginia was not under the heels of the 150.000 ruffians, seat from the cotton states. The State is held down by i terrorism, and a savage discipline maintains the rebel e.rmy in its position tnrough privations and discontent enough to try the best troops. Frederick, Md., Jan. 6.

Stevens .followed up to within six miles of Charleston. A flag of truce from the rebels requested permission to bury their dead, and one hour was granted for the purpose, when they fell back on their fortifications, which are said to be very extensive, and defended by from 11,000 to 12,000 men under Gen. Pope. Their loss is unknown. Our force was 4,500, and had eight wounded, including Mnj. Watson of the 8th Michigan, mortally. Gen. Stevens now holds possession of tbe main land, and awaits reinforcements from the North to proceed. Great Salt Lake, Jan. 6.

Washington, Jan. 6. It is said the introduction of the Homeopathic practice of medicine has raised somewhat of a commotion among many of tbe regular surgeons of, the army. Commissioner Dale will soon leave for the West on business of importance connected with the Indian tribes. It seems that a definitive, but informal mode of exchanging prisoners, has been inaugurated. The prompt reciprocation in regard to this matter, by the Southern authorities, will soon be followed by the government in forwarding another large party, for a corresponding return. SPECIAL TO CINCINNATI COMMERCIAL. HuttonvilM, Va., Jan. 6. A force consisting of 400 of the 25th Ohio, 300 of the 2nd Virginia, and 38 of Bracken's cavalry, the whole under command of Maj. Geo. Webster cf the 25th Ohio, returned to-day after an absence of six days, having marched to Huntersville, the depot for rebel supplies in Western Virginia. They attacked and put to flight an equal rebel force and burned all the rebel stores. The rebel force consisted of 400 regular cavalry, armed Jwith Sharp's carbiaes, and from 300 to 500 infantry and militia. Their cavnlry attacked U3 two "miles from Huntersville. We drove them from point to point and finally they beat a hasty retreat out of town, as we charged through it. Their supplies, consisting of 350 barrels of flour, 300 salted beeves, 3,000 barrels of salt, and large quantities of sugar, coffee, rice, bacon, army clothing, &c, worth from $35,000 to $40,000, were entirely destoyed. We also took a large number of Sharp's carbines, sabres, pistols, &c. One rebel was killed, and seven wounded. We had one man seriously wounded. It was a complete success. Maj. Webster and his command, behaved gallantly throughout. The marcb was a severe one, of one hundred and four miles but the boys retarned in glorious spirits.

The painful rumor in regard to the arre3t of a prominent military officer of the government for treason, is without foundation. Some matters of importance, in tbe shape of correspondence, has been discovered, but in connection with parties entirely different from the officer named in the rumors now current. All the .parties implicated are now under arrest. This city is full of Southern sympathizers or spies, in high social positions. The time has arrived when they must be vigorously dealt with.

Sooour or later omthing nxnat go wrong, aod the great machinery of lib i disordered or overthrown. Saraaparilla haa, and deserve much, the reputetion of accomplishing t Uee end. But the world ha been egregionsly deceived by preparations of it, partly because the drug alone haa not all the virtue that is claimed for It, but more because many preparation, pretending to be concentrated extract of it "contain but in tlo of tbe virtue of sarsaparilla or any thing elae. Dnriug late year the public has been milled by large bottles, pretending to give a quart of Extract of Saraaparilla for one dollar. Moat of thee have been frauds upon the sick, for they not only contain little, If any, Saraaparilla, but often no curative properties whatever. Hence, bitter and pain fnl dlsappolntm-jnt has followed the use of he various extracts ui Saraaparilla which flood the marketytratll the name itself is Jnatly despised, and haa become aynonymoua with imposition and rheet Still we call this compound Saraaparilla, and Intend to supply such a remedy as shall rescue the nam from the load of obloqny which rests upon It.
