THE rOOTE .4FFAJH.
The. following debate occurred in the House I
of Representatives, Jan. lath, over the actions *
of Hon. H. S. Footo : **
Mr. Foote, of Tonn , desired to speak to a '
question of high privilege. His own privilege j
and that of the Home bad beep availed, aud ;
he wished to deny all matters connected there
with before tie House, and vindicate his honor
and reputation.
Thv i-'i eaker decide ’. that as ihe member had
stated th t he w;is from attendance on'
the .-svtk n* if the House lev the iuflaenceof
cero.-in parties, he v is entitled to speak.
Mr. Vi. »te said that th; privi’ege of kia scat
on t : -, liver as a representative of a sovereign
Sr-.de hud been attempted to bo taken away
from him That State was proud cf her
sovereignity, and he still enjoyed the confi
d jnc* of hkr people and constituency. But
thirty tiv« members of the House iu a manner
unprecedented, some of them his bitter and
peisenalenemies ->f long standing, had voted
to sn>t»iu the F.taiement that be had no privi
leges as a member of this House. He had
gone from this city, by the advice of friends,
in take bis wife t-> a portion of the country
where she might, with possibility,.get through
the lines to Alexandria, and thence to Nash -
vdle wliM-i her friends and children were.—
lie had then intended to make an effort to
get as near Washington as possible, to see i<’
he could not be allowed to go to Washington,
in order to find out 'do State of feeling in re
gard to a compiom’se between the North and
South, and to eftdetwor to bring about dome
tent sos peace. He had written a letter sta
ting his intention, but finding, afterwards that
they intended to force Mm to take the oath
at Alexandria, which be never intended to do,
he determined to adopt another plap. lie had
the a added a . postcript to fits letter to the
Speaker, resigning his seat as a member of the
House. Subst qrently, he was arrested by two
voung men, who were gentlemanly and cour
teous; ho told them he w.is a member of Con
giese and «.vh it v.- ro his intentions. They said
they thought.-ho envoi to be allowed to proceed
but that r n-y had crde-is to- detain Idm. lie
v. as t ilten to Fredeiicksburg, where he explain
ed his intentions to Captain Hoggett, who,
after hearing the ease, said ho would release
him, hut., sad he. “i have received a telegram
from M:. Seddou to hold ca to you.” The
teieeriiui is as follows:
“Cavt. if. S. Doooutt :
‘■D.s.iin II 8. Foote until further orders.
(Singed ) “Jas. A. Seooox,
“Secretary (if War.”
Therefore he was detained, lie had then
regained jh r.-esfii-n of his letter of resigna
tion, which had not been forwarded to Rich
mond, and had it now. lie had been brought
io Richmond umirr guard, and had been re
li-arud thisjmoniing. It had been stated that
Mr. Feddi.-n simi he did not detain him Here
v. proof to tho contrary, ile intended to
car.y cut bis plans on his own responsibility.
Ho knew that- if he tiiiioJ his name would be
maligued »nd bold up to the contempt of the
Ban h. lie might have' perished on tlie
j hid, vet ho was willing to risk all.
‘* />a f ,M/» rimtcni rst pro pall id, mori ” J: is
sv.i : > and biotorable to die lor one's country.

fi'n- leave <>■' absence for Iwo months to visit
Ids eoiisfitneats, or to get as m ar Nashville as
(KKC-ibie, to consult with them, lie had been
induced »•-> kike the stops he bad taken, and
was about '• *d.- iroui pure love of (lie South,
lie bad sou* in the avmy. His whole reelings
and interests were wih the Souili, and it
would never be oiheiwiso. He had become
alarmed at. the state of affairs, lie did dot
want to see emancipation in tho South. He
cm ’.i not bear Ibe thought of reconstruction
and he wanted to see if something could not
be done towards b: ii ging about a peao'i. He
was so unfortunate as not, to .be iu very good
| odor with tho A-behii.-tratiqn. Mr. Davis
j had not forgotten that lie had once beaten him
ter Governor of' .Misi-ii-sipp’- Ho had not
(km for defeating tlie bill giving him
a poifion of ids salary ia goid Mr. Mem
miiiger had la «u forced to resign by bis mo
tion.
And as to Mi. Boddem : • llc'iMr. Foote) had
ini reduced, about two months ago, a resolu
tion making inquiry info Mr. Seddon’a action,
and bad proved, by cttioial investigation, that
Mr. tvddon. on the 2d day of August last, had
been paid S4O a bushed i.-.r bis own wheat,
when, by bis own order, wheat was being im
pressed in Georgia and North Carolina at &7 a
bushel, •
Mr. Foote was lierq calied to order and
could not'j reci'cd except by a vote of tho
IJrai -o, lie. ih'mcfoie, said he would ch;;:c his ie
uiuiksaud-ask leave ol absence as indicated
by him.
"Mr. Xuoad, of 'h» , moved a resolution of
