From Washington

WASHINGTON, Feb. 7.

An error in Representative Conway’s resolution, as printed to-day, renders it necessary to say that his call on the President was for the names of all persons arrested under the order of any executive officer without legal process, and confined in any of the forts or prisons of the country, exclusive of persons taken as prisoners of war.
