ALLEGED DESERTERS.
Mr. PETERS offered a concurrrent resolution instructing Senators and requesting Indiana Representatives in Congress to use their influence to procure honorable discharges for certain soldiers and sailors who served faithfully during that portion of their enlistment preceding the surrender of Generals Lee and Johnson, and thinking the the War at an end and their services required no longer, and desirous of being at home with their families, left their respective commands without having been properly discharged, and are standing on the Army rolls of the United States as deserters.
It was referred to the Committee on Federal Relations.
