FRIDAY, JULY 15, 18GL
CONGRESS,
There was another great day's work
done in Congress yesterday. The debates
in both branches were interesting, and
hi ought out all the tory element there
wrs. It is harmless for any mischief,
beyond the exhibition of its own shame;
and receives no other response than the
solid vote of the majority for administra
tion measures. The bill appropriating six
millions to pay the troops their arrearages,
has passed both Houses, been signed by the
President, and under its provisions the
money is cn rouU west for the boys at
Cairo.
THE 16TB HBGineKI-SUJOB
SLEStaiBR,
The headquarters of the Sixteenth regu
lar infantry having been established at
Chicago, Major A. J. Slemmer, th(?gallant
defender of Fort Pickens, has. opened, the
principal recruiting station of the regi
ment at No. 151 Dearborn street, near the
Post Office building, and a branch station
»t 134 West Randolph street. Recruiting
E'ations will also be opened at Kalamazoo,
Milwaukee, Oshkosh, Dubuque, and other
p< ints.
THE KANAWHA CAMPAIGN*
ll appears that somethin# like a regular
campaign lias been commenced in the val
ley of the Great Kanawha River, Ya. The
commanding officer of the Federal forces
is CoL Korlon, of Ohio. A regiment
marched from the month of the Kanawha
V> Ripley, Jackson county, Ya., a few days
r.go, to look after Obadiah J. Wise and his
column, but Obadiah had fled.
Two Ohio and two Kentucky regiments
have tuken passage in steamboats at Cin
cinnati to join Col. Norton’s column. The
importance of this movement cannot he
overestimated.
TBS KIRSTBENTH SEGMENT.
The nineteenth Regiment of Illinois vol
i.Dteers, CoL J. B. Turchin, now at Camp
Bong, will soon he ordered Into active ser
vice. CoL Turchin makes an appeal, pub
lished in another column, to the liberality
cf our citizens, for certain articles essential
to the comfort of the soldiers, which are
not furnished by the Government under
army regulations. This is perhaps the last
opportunity we shall have to give practi
cal expression to our regard for this fine
regiment, composed chiefly of our own
citizens. Let them be provided, before
they start, with eveiylhing which may
lend to soften the rigors of a campaign
and which their experienced commander
deems proper to be carrled.
IHE WAR IN m&SOVBI.
The sudden outbreak of hostilities in
Northern Missouri, with the concentration
of Claib Jackson's forces in the south-west
and the now reported concentration for an
an attack on Bird's Point, all seem to he
parts of a grand plot, hatched at Richmond
weeks ago, in the forlorn hope to divert
nUcnlion from the cast by a counter ex
citement in the west The mine has been
well laid, and Is sprung with almost sim
ultaneous exactness. Missouri is now con
vulsed throughout all her borders with
trarf
Injtbe Northeast, along the Quincy and
Palmyra Railroad the rebels are reported
to be some 3,000 strong. ; They have
burned railroad bridges, including an at
tempt (which may have been made suc
cessful by ibis time) to destroy the Salt
Creek bridge—the struc
ture on the line. Communication being
cut off, wc axe without late news from
CoL Smith's command, i and the
Strength of the rebels, with the
difficulties of approach! to them,
have somewhat retarded the advance of the
expedition which has been hastily gathered
at Quincy. More troops are’ said to have
Lion called for, including one of the regi
ments in camp in this city; and there will
be no delay in sending such relief to our
beleaguered troops as shall crush the head
of rebellion north of the Missouri river, and
establish once more uninterrupted com
jnunicalion across the Stated
WKVTKBN VIRGINIA.
"Wc have further intelligence from West
ern Virginia, where sharp skirmishing was
going on between General McClellan’s
troops and the rebels. A big and bloody
battle seemed to be on the eve of’tailing
place. The enemy was strongly posted,
but McClellan was de‘ ermined to carry his
position by storm. Three Chicago com
panies will take a hand in the struggle,
viz: Barker's and Hoffman’s dragoons and
Sturgis’ sharp shooters.
Patterson’s column has made no forward
movement for several days; and the head
of the Anaconda under Scott, is still tor
pid, showing no symptoms of motion.
This sluggish inactivity will not be allmced
much longer. The President has said so.

information deemed perfectly reliable.

The details of the battle hear Carthage,

1200 and 0,000 secessionists, will be found
in ibis morning’s Teibuke. “It was a
brilliant achievement on the part of Sigel's
liocps who fongbl witb the steadiness of
veterans, and in vety artistic style. Sigel’s
artillery fired ninety-five rounds at the re
bels, and did great execution on their
ranks.
On the 3d inst. Gen. Lyon left Boonville

Och Bigel’s headquarters, after his bat

gage train, ■which was some three and a half
miles from the scene of the first engagement.
By a skillful movement the wagons were
placed in the centre of the column in such &
manner that there were artillery and Infantry
forces both in front and rear. Jackson’s
troops then retreated and endeavored to sur
round the entire column by fading a position
upon some high bluffs or hills overlooking a
creek. There was but one road leading across
this stream, and to progress at all without far
ther retreating in the direction of Carthagc.lt
was neccsE&ry to cross the elevation where the
cavalry were mainly posted.
Major Bakop, who commanded the artillery,
was ordered to place two of the artillery
pieces in front to oblique to the left, and two
to the light, and at the same time a similar
movement was made from CoL Sigel’a battal
ions. This was a maneuver to induce Jack
ton's men to believe that Sigel was seeking
to pass out on the extremes of their
lines, and to out-flank the cavalry. It
was followed by a closing up to the right and
to the left by the forces on the bluffs,
when, on reaching a point three hundred and
fifty yards from the cavaliy, the four pieces
were ordered to a transverse oblique, and Im
mediately a heavy cross-fire was opened with
caanlster. At the tame time the infantry
charged at double quick, and in ten minutes
the rebels were scattered in every direction.
Ten rounds of cannlster were fired from each
of the cannon, together with several rounds
by the infantiy. Forty-five prisoners were
taken, and eight limes captured, and not less
ihan one hundred rebels were killed and
wounded by this brilliant maneuver.
Sigel’s command got back to Carthage at
half past six o'clock, and at once undertook
to enter the woods about a mile distant. This
movement was strongly and desperately re
sisted, Jackson's men feeling that once in the
timber they could do nothing, being on horse
back. An effort to rally the cavalry to a
charge was made, which brought the whole of
the infantry into action. After some hard
fighting, Cob Sigel got his men into the woods,
and so covered bis retreat as to force the State
troops to relinquish the further prosecution
of the fight for the night
During all this march the Union troops con
tended against four times their own number.
The rebel cavalry alone was as numerous as
Sigel’s (whole force. They had four cannon
and 3,500 infantry, mating a total of nearly
5,000 men. Col. Sigel’s consisted of his own
regiment of two battalions,and CoL Saloman’s
detached regiment, with eight pieces of ar
tillery, under command of Maj. Backofi CoL
Slgci’s regiment had six hundred men and
CoL Saloman’s fire hundred, making eleven

Later and More Intelligent Account of the
ttjfht —Narrative of Lieut. Tusk of the Ar-
[From the St. Louie Democrat of yesterday.]
Last evening we had an interview with
Lieut. Tusk, bearer of dispatches from CoL
fiigcl, who gives ub a highly interesting ac
count of the battle near Carthage.
It would be in vain for us to attempt to por
tray the many movements of the contending
parties, and the incidents of the day as they
were bo graphically and intelligently related
and explained by Lieut Tusk. He is a Hun
garian, was in the Crimean war, and later
tcught|>n the Italian war. He seems to be on
experienced and very intelligent officer.
fie says that the command under CoLSigel,
amounting to about 1,100 men, at Carthage,
heard, on the evening of the 4lh, of the pres
ence of tte enemy at a paint about seven
miles eastward on the prairie. The force of
The enemy was not known, but the troops
were so impatient to have a brash, that CoL
cl decided to give them battle. At throe
o’clock on the morning of the sth, the march
was begun. Tee command came upon the
rebel lorees under Gen. Bains and Parsons, at
about o’clock in the forenoon. They
were strongly stationed on a ridge or hill in
the prairie, having five pieces ofartlllery, one
twelve pounder posted In front, and two six
ponndere on the right and left, the cavalry
on each flank, and the infantry in the rear
■oftheartillciy. The position was a formida
ble one.
CoL Sigel approached to wi ’da a distance
of about 800 yards with four pit -es of artillery
in his centre, supported on his left by a com
mand of infantry, under Lieut, CoL Hassen
deubel, and a sis pound cannon—on his right
by the commaEdof Col. Salomon, and another
six-poundcr. In the rear of the centre pieces
of artillery, was the command of Major Bish
op. Before opening fire Col. Sigel briefly and
eloquently addressed the troops, reminding
them of their battles in the old country, and
ashing them to staud by him in the present
hour. He then openeu fire "with shrapnels
l!om the piece of artillery onhis extreme left,
and soon the engagement became general,
The rebels though strongly posted, had no
grape, nothing but ball, and proved themselves
i o he oad artillerists, the most of their balls
living high and-plowing up the prairie beyond
ihe federal troops. They had Confederate flags
flying on their extreme light and It-ft divisions,
and the Missouri State flag In their center.
S'gel’s men twice shot down the traitor’s
Hags, their first shots being especially direct
ed at these objects, saying that they had no
desire to fire upon the State flag. In three
quarters ol an hour the twelve pounder in the
rebel’s front was dismounted, and their centre
column completely broken. In two hours
more their artillery was entirely silenced.
They resumed fire after a short interval, but
were a second and last time silenced.
By this time CoL Sigel observing that a
Hank movement was being made by both
wings of the rebel cavalry, became concerned
lor bis buggsge wagons, which were stationed
i hrec mike In his rear, and accordingly sent
Luck one field piece and a column of Infantry
vo protect them and the ferry across a small
crctk between him and them. The cavalry
‘-.till pressing him on the right and left, he or- •
aired a retrograde movement of his whole
.•emmand, which-was admirably performed,
the urtUkry continuing to do admirable scr
\: cc, &nd fighting slowly every inch of ground.
"he baggage wagons having been reached,
ibty were immediately formed in solid col
umns of eight, and the infantry and artillery
were posted on all sides, presenting an im
pregnable array.
In this condition, and with perfect order,
Lis command continued the retrograde move
ment towards Carthage, fighting bravely
vgainst the superior odds until about 5 o’clock
in the afternoon. At last they came to a place
where the road passed directly through a high
•bluff, on each side of which the enemy’s cav
alry were posted in large numbers. By a feint,
as if intending to pass round the bluffs, CoL
Sigel drew the cavalry In a solid body in the
read, between the bluffs, at a distance of 350
;ards from bis position, when, by a skillful
and rapid manoeuvre ofhis artillery, he poured
into their ranks a most destructive cross fire
cf canister shot, which did not last ten min
utes before the enemy fled in great disorder.
Lieutenant Tusk says the prairie was frill of
flying and riderless horses, of which they cap
tured 85, and picked up from the ground 65
double barreled shot guns. Two officers,
whose names Lieutenant Task could not re
call, were also captured at this point, and they
stated that up to that time they bad lost about
250 men.
It was etill three miles to Carthage. Col,
Sigel was anxious to reach that point and take
a position in the woods on the north of that
place, on the Sarooxle road, so that he would
not be any further annoyed hy the rebel cav
alry. . This movement occupied from
o’clock to about 8# in the evening, and here
was the hottest fighting of the day, the enemy
evidently appreciating Col. SigeTs desire to
get Into the cover of the woods, and disputing
the ground most stubbornly with him. Fi
nally, against the tremendous odds, he gained
the umber, when the enemy retired to Car
thage.
As socn as he ascertained that the enemy
had given up the day, he took up the hue of
march, and pressed on twelve or fourteen
miles to Sarcozie. where they arrived without
any further trouble at three o’clock in the
morning. Here they took a hearty breakfast,
dinner and a good rest. On the same evening
they marched toilt. Vernon and passed the
night in that place, where they were most joy*
faßy received, and hospitably entertained.

Brisk slurmiehing; was kept up with the ea
tmy all yesterday afternoon.
About 2 o'clock, from a high hill, in the
neighborhood, two large bodies were seen
marching out of the enemy’s camp. Instant
preparations were made to resist a formidable
attack. By 4 o’clock, the skirmishing In front
of the Fourteenth Ohio and Ninth Indiana
Regiments became very warm.
The enemy advanced under cover.of the
woods so close as to rain ballets in upon the
men at the artillery.
A large force of skirmishers was sent for
ward to engage the enemy, and our skirmish
ers instantly rushed forward, pouring in sharp
volleys, and killing several of the enemy.
The enemy’s cavalry then advanced around
to the farther skirt of the woods to take our
skirmishers in the flank.
Our boys rapidly retreated, and the artillery
dropped m a couple more shells, one of which
exploded among their cavalry. They Instant
ly fell back and our boys rushed forward and
poured in another volley. The enemy now
scattered in the woods. The officers were seen
attempting to rally them.
At first ihc men conld not be brought up in
a body again, and meantime our skirmishers
picked out the officers. Several more shells
were thrown in, and our men made a final rush,
driving the remainder of the enemy dear
through their ownrifieplts, and bringingback
several of their blankets," coats and gnus.
It was a Georgia regiment which was en
gaged. It numbers about 1,000, and Is their
crack regiment. When dusk came, our skir
mishers retired from the woods in capital or
der. An attack was expected through the
night, but none was made, though occasional
ihots were fired among our pickets.
Astonishing pluck was displayed by our
i khmlehers, and the only trouble was to keep
the men back from rushing into the enemy’s
midst. The whole skirmish was a spirited af
fair, and our Ohio and Indiana boys gave the
Georgia men new. Ideas of Northern courage.
It is impossible to learn the number of the
enemy killed and wounded. Twenty of the
dead were counted in the wood, and a number
of them ore known to have been dragged off.
A prisoner taken *.hf« morning reports that
one shell fell right in the midst of their camp,
and created the utmost consternation. He al
so says the Georgians refused to come down
to the woods opposite our advance position
again, and were all very much astonished and
terrified. Their supplies of provisions are cut
off, and they must soon come to extremities.
SECOND DISPATCH.
Beausgton, (opposite Laurel Hill,) July 10.
Yesterday at noon, the enemy were detect
ed in attempting to plant a battery to rake
our camp. The artillery at once dropped sev
eral shells among them, and stopped their
game. Another sun was taken ont to an em
inence commanding their camp, about two
miles off, and a number cf shell and round
shot thrown into and oyer them, creating a
wonderful stampede from their camp.
Indications'^ere seen of an attempt to cut
a new road through the forests on the side of
Laurel Hill, to effect an escape or bring in
provisions, and arrangements made to Head
them off, and as for as possible every outlet
watched except that back to Beverly, where
they would meet McClellan’s advancing col
umn. Gen. McClellan is said to have had con
siderable trouble from Jennings Wise, whose
command are hanging on his skirts. That
column reached Beverly last night-
There has been some skirmishing to-d»y,
but little of importance. The enemy drew in
their pickets to within half a mile of their
camp, and cur lines have gradually advanced.
The Ninth Indiana held the wood where the
skirmish of the day before took place.
Up to date only two of our men had been
killed, and six- wounded. Their names ore
reported in xny former dispatch.
The Ninth Indiana and Fourteenth Ohio
continue to occupy the advances. Oqr cal

WASBXKdTOK, July 10.
The correspondents of the press had a meet
ing to-day, in which they voted to comply
with the request of Gen. Scott that no tele
graphic information should be given of the
movements of troops. -The Government will
permit correspondents to telegraph as freely
as they choose in the event of an actual bat
tle.
The Commander in-Chief declared that the
Washington correspondents had telegraphed
as important and accurate information asifhe
i ad issued the dispatches from his own office.
This had embarrassed the Government. The
correspondents filed a protest that the ends of
the Government would not be subserved by
this supervision so long as it permitted spies
here. The Government of the rebels has daily
communication with Washington. The War
Department is to take immediate measures
that no news of the movement of troops be
allowed to go through the Louisville audCln
ciunati offices.
There was a lore discussion on the mili
tary bill, in which Kesmiih, of Oregon, declar
ed that Brigadier Generals who, without mili
tary knowledge, led soldiers in ambuscades,
ought to be indicted and tried for murder.
He succeeded in getting an amendment pass
ed requesting the President to appoint the
higher officers from the regular army. The
only army news of pcrmiseable kind is scarce.
All legislation is being hurried in both
Houses, and they will be ready to adjourn on
Saturday of next week.
The rebel flag-of truce man brought a letter
s'mply protesting against the Government’s
recognition of western Virginia. The letter
was trom John Letcher.
The Secretary of the Treasury received a
full subscription for the five million loan, at
six per cent., within six hours.

The House had a spicy five minutes debate in
committee of the whole, before passing the
army bill Vallandigham rolled himself in
the dirt, as usual, and Burnett followed in
seme balderdash about “peace.” Lovejoy
made a characteristic reply to the latter, say
ing : “ ‘ There is no peace, saith my God, to
“the wicked;’ no peace to rebels and traitors
“but gibbets and gunpowder to the cud.”
John Hickman spoke vigorously to the same
effect
, Recent speeches and votes disclose the fact
that there are but five enemies to the Govern

all occasions, and seem to glory in their base

Washington, July 11,18G1—10 p. at.
The troops at Cairo are to be paid. Majors
Eaton and Klnzie, army paymasters, leave to
day for that purpose, taking out the gold.
This is duo mainly to Mr. Washbume, who
has been untiring in his exertions that some
thing should be done for the Cairo boys. The
President is also urging the claims of the
three months men upon Congress, and proba
bly a bill will pass taking them into the ser
vice for one year or the war, at his sugges

boys, and hopes they will, under the new ar

We bare positive information, to-day, that a
concerted movement in Missouri was planned *
at Richmond and Memphis over three weeks
ago, to aid Jeff Davis by diverting U. 8. troops
In the Northwest. Jackson’s men wero prom
ised reinforcements, conditioned that distur
bances should be created simultaneously at
several points in Missouri. The concentra
tion cf State troops was a part of this plan.
Last night the telegraph wires between
Boonvillc and Jefferson City were cut-and
partially removed.
Further details confirm the news of Sigel’s
splendid fighting against the State troops.
On reaching the bluffy part of his first move
ment was the ordering of his men
to elevate their muskets, so that the enemy
could see them at a great distance, leading
them to send cavalry around to cut Sigel off
When the latter got them in a narrow pass, a
retrograde movement with artillery, and an
infantry charge right after, did fearful execu
tion among the rebels.
By this time, Maj. Stnrges, Gen, Sweeny and
Gen. Lyon must have Joined Sigel, and no'
doubt have swept the rebels into Arkansas,
probably following them into that State.
Union men are much elated by the victory
of Si gel, and his telling the seceshers that
« one Dutchman, Is as good ks five secession
ists.”

THE EXPEDITION XO FALUYKi:
[Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.]
SPTCHGrmj), July 11,1^1—Midnlght.
The expedition which leftftfor Palmyra,
reached Quincy at an early hon? this morning,
and the advance into Missourfjras delayed by
repotted obstructions on the line of the Han*
nibal &St Joe and Quincy Palmyra Kill
roads. The first intelligence indicated the
destruction of all the principal bridges
on each route, but later - advices state
that only the small bridges are, destroyed.
Under the impression that the first reports
were correct a detachment consisting of the
Yates Dragoons, Capt Burnat,li company of
artillery and several of infantrs were sent by
tteamer to Marion City, midway between
Quincy and Hanibal, and nine idles from
Palmyra, with directions to proceed to the
latter point and join Major Haysfwtto was wait

nibal, and the colnmn at Morion City having
ample time to join him at Palnjyra, have ad
vanced, joined by Major Hays, toward Monroe,
-where the command under Col, Smith label
leguied’by the enemy.
A party set fire to the bridge ive miles from
Quincy, on the Palmyra railroad, which, Tip on
the timely arrival of CoL Grab's companies
was promptly extinguished, argLit Is presum

port the advanced forces in the morning, at
10 o’clock, will be able to get thxougii to Pal
rujra by the railroad route ; add. the commu
nication be permanently restores?
At the outset it seemed the advance was sur
rounded by so' many difficulties that relief
could not be afforded CoL Smith in time to
put him on the offensive; but the path to him
is a clear field, and a good fight is now quite
premising.
A messenger from west of Monroe reports
the death of Capt. McAllister,frjgCoL Smith’s
regiment, a young and com
manding the company from Schdyler county.
He was shot while placing sentinels on guard
near his post, some five miles Monroe,
by rebel guerrillas in ambusk* • Five balls
passed through his body. BlgSrif- men belong
ing to Capt. Petries company, Ijuincy, are re
ported to have been killed vrhile returning
from a scouting expedition. Ut is rumored
Ibat they only had three rounds of cartridges
each, and were therefore unable to protect or
dil'end themselves; but Cap. Petries well
merited reputation as a soldierls a sufficient
reputation. .•
At present all information. as to engage
ments with the rebels should J>e carefully re
garded, as communication by rail and tele
graph has been entirely cut off west of
Quincy.
At the time of our last-dispatch from
Quincy, signal lights were seen in the distance
and the report of Col. Palmer and Maj. Hay’s
journey couth, and of the total defeat of the
enctny, is confidently expected.' ~
Previous to leaving Canton, Col. Palmer
had a skirmish with a .‘party of secessionists
and captured and brought to Quincy a rebel

XXXVUTH CONGRESS-SPECIAL SESSION.
Mr. SALISBURY, of Delaware, gave notice
that he should introduce a joint resolution,
making amendments to the Cbußtiluticn for a
peaceful adjustment of the'prcscut troubles,
Mr, CHANDLER, Of Michigan, from the
Committee on Commerce, reported back the
House bill in relation to the further collection
of duties and imposts—the “ force bill” so
called, or 44 the blockade hill”—with a recom
mendation that It pass. The hill was laid
over.
The loan hill was received from the House
and referred to the Committee on Finance.
Mr. BALE, of New Hampshire, introduced
a bIU regulating the employment of volunteers
in the Navy, also to regulate the marine force;
also bills to increase the Navy in time of war,
to increase the number of paymasters in the
N&vy, and relative to the Naval Academy. All
were referred to the Committee on Naval
Affairs.
Mr. FESSENDEN, of Maine, from the Com
mittee on Finance, reported the House bill for
the payment of the militia and volunteers,
with an amendment, making the appropria
,tion 15,750,000, instead of $6,000,000. The
amendment was agreed to and the bill passed.
Mr. CLARK,of New Hampshire,called up the
resolution offered yeetenuy, regarding the
expulsion of seceding Senators.
Mr. BAYARE,oriJelasncr£,Bawno reason for
anything more than declaring their seats va
cant. ■ •
Mr. t.atttam, of California, said he should
not vote for expulsion, although he should
vote that the names of Senators be stricken
from the rolls and their seats declared vacant;
and he, therefore, moved to strike out the
word “expel.”
Mr. McDOUGAL, of Californio, said he was
ready to vote for expul sign. No man has a
right to ft seat here who has espoused the
cause of treason. Treason, to be sure, was a
gentlemanly crime, and entitled to the axe
nstead of the halter; but still it was a crime.

inridge, Bright, Johnson, of Tenn., Johnson,
of Missouri, Latham, Nesmith, Folk, Powell,

The resolution then passed—yeas 33, nays 1L
The resolutions approving of the acts of
President Lincoln, were then taken up,
Mr. POLE, of Missouri, resumed his re
marks: Be said Missouri had obstructed no
law whatever of the United States, and yet
that State, under no pretext of law, had been
invaded by United States troops from lowa
and Kansas. Mr. Folk further argued that
the President had no light to invade a State,
or to give the power to proclaim martial law
to a mere Captain. He referred to Captain
Lyon’s acts as illegal and unconstitutional.
Mr. WADE, of Ohio, moved to refer the
resolution to the Committee on the Judiciary.
Mr. POWELL, ol Kcntuckyjtook the same
ground as Mr. Folk, and said the President
had no right to declare ablockade against any
of the States, and he had no right to suspend
the writ of habeas ogffiak ,
Mr. WILKINSON, 3 'Minnesota, asked the
Senator if he approved the action .of the Gov
ernment of Kentucky in refusing to send

HOUSE.
Mr. STEVENS, of Fa., from the Committee
on Ways and Means, reported a bill making
additional appropriations for the legislative,
executive and judicial expenses for the year
ending June. 1862, and to cover arrearages of
the year ending June last. Also, a bill making
appropriations for the civil expenses of the
Government for the same period.
Mr. BLAIR, of Mo., from .the Committee on
Military Affairs, reported a bill to promote
the efficiency of the army. Also, a bill for the
employment of volunteers to aid in support
ing and defending the Government.
All the above bills were referred to the
Committee of the ordered printed.
On motion of Mr. Stevens, the House went
into committee on the army bill, with Mr.
Waehbnrne.ot Illinois, in the chair.
Mr. STEVENS said the Committee on Ways
and Means hoped to complete their business
so that the Bouse might adjourn Thursday
nut. They were disposed in these war times
to give everything the Government asked,
trusting that before a year passed away peace
may be restored. The Importance of having
disciplined troops was so obvious os not tore
quire argument! If the armv should be too
large when the rebellion was suppressed, it
would be easy to reduce it. The bill proposed
a war standard-
Hr. YALLANDIGHAM, of Ohio, believed
the act of the President increasing the army
unconstitutional. He regretted to hear that
the Committee of ways and Means [had merely
carried out the recommendation of the Execu
tive Department; and Inasmuch as It appears
that the war is to be waged, he asked that the
majority of both the House and Senate take
caie of it, in order that it maybe conducted
under constitutional restrictions. It was
known that he had no confidence in the Re
publican party, but he had rather trust the
majority here than the Administration.
Mr. BURNETT said he bad not an oppor
tunity to examine the bill, and was opposed
to the way the bill was hurried through; he
should vote against it.
Mr. LOVEJOT, of Dlinols, wouldnot vote,
os the bill proposed to increase the standing
army to more than double what it sow is. He
would give 500,000 men and $500,000,000, and
his constituents would give their last cent
and shed their last drop of blood for the sup
pression of the rebellion, but they did not de
sire to increase the regular army.
Mr. McCLERNAND of lIL briefly advocated
the increase of the army, saying it had been
too small for fifteen or twenty years.
Mr. BURNETT said to put down rebellion
it was not necessary to increase the regular
army, but only to employ the volunteer forces
of the country.
Mr. McCLERNAND, Will you vote for the
volunteer force ?
Mr. BURNETT. Not by any means; be
cause I do not believe we can hold the Gov
ernment together at the point of the sword
or at the cannon’s mouth. You may vote
j our five hundred thousand men and your five
hundred million dollars, and our country may
be ravaged and desolated with civil war; but
bythe first Monday lu December next yon
wiH be no nearer the end of the war than now.
Mr. McCLERNAND said that when that
tentleman resumed his seat here, he took on
im a solemn obligation, in the sight of God
snd the country, thatfhc would support the
Constitution of the United States, and could
he do so by folding his. arms while the batter
ies of rebellion are levelled perhaps at the
capital? Is this the way he can discharge his
obligations ?
Mr. BURNETT said—l believe I am best
serving the interests of my country and the
came of a constitutional representative gov
ernment as well as .the prosperity of the peo
ple, by advocating a peaceful solution of the
present trouble instead of a bloody war.
Mr. McCLERNAND—You propose a peace
ful solution. I want to know the basis of it.
Do yon wish ns to recognize Ike Southern
Confederacy ?
The CHAIRMAN reminded the gentleman
from Illinois that such remarks were not per
tinent to the subject under consideration.
Mr. McCLERNAND—Thope I shall hare an
explicit answer.
Mr. BURNETT—The gentleman from Illi
nois shall hear from mo at a future time, how
I should settle the question, when I shall have
a full opportunity for that purpose.
Mr. HICKMAN of Pa. tifid—l trust in God
the gentleman from Kentucky does not speak
the sentiments of his own section, much less
those of the entire Stater/ But whether he
does or does not, I say frankly it matters not
to those who are in. this work of
preserving i3te Constitution and Union, for
-£t«Wver their action may be the Government
t dll be sustained and perform its legitimate
offices. /Applause,] \
Mr. BURNETT said whatever position Ken
tucky took, he .intended to fctand by her. He
owed loyalty to his State abova,.tha General
Government.-• TheTrvaid£St had-lryiugu rated
war in violation of the Constitution. He sol
emnly protested against it,
Mr. JACKSON, of Kentucky, said Mr. Bur
nett didn’t represent the sentiments of Ken
tucky, and protested against this declaration
justifying the revolution- Sir. Jackson also
sa s dlhat Kentucky, under no circumstances,
would raise her hand against the Federal Gov
ernment.
Mr. HICKMAN replied to Mr. Burnett, con
troverting: his position.
Mr. VALLANDIGHAM offered a provision
to the bill that no part of the money appro
' -dated should be used let tbe employmeu of
Dices for subjugating any States and holding
them as conqueredprovlnces, or for interfering
with slavery in any State. He offered this to
disabuse the minds of those who thought this
the purpose of the war.
The amendment was rejected.
The army bill, after several amendments,
was laid aside to be reported to the House.
The Committee of the Whole rose, when, the
aforesaid bills were severally passed.
Tbe House also concurred in the Senate’s
amendment to the bill for the payment of the

minutes to succor Cob Smith.
We have no further news from Smith than
that received last evening, that he was sur
rounded by 1600 cavalry, and was in great

Gov. Wood and otters frotnSpringfieldand

Quincy, July 11—8 p. m.—A messenger
just arrived from Hannibal brings intelligence
tbnt the railroad bridge between that place
and Palm via was burned last night. The
bridge on the Quincy and Palmyra Railroad,
across the same stream, is also reported de
stroyed.
Gen. Mather has sent a detachment consist
ing cf one company each of artillery, infantry
and cavalry by boat to Morion City, six miles
south, with orders to push ou from there by
land to add CoL Smith. This detachment
will, by the route they take, avoid the bridges
which have been burned, but will have to
march about thirty miles. He has also sent a
detachment of troops by the Quincy and Fab
mjra Railroad, with orders to open the route
by to-night at all hazards, and will march im
mediately with the balance of the forces at
command.
CoL Palmer has just arrived with about *OO
of his men, who routed a camp of secession
ists yesterday, fixing upon them and taking
i one lieutenant prisoner, whom they brought
here.
One regiment Is ordered to proceed from
Alton to Hannibal, and one from Chicago to
this place, which will proceed to the support
of forces already on the march into Missouri.
The circumstances of the skirmish in which
Capt. Petrie’s Company was engaged are re-
S >ited as ibllows: The forces stationed- at
onroe made an excursion into the county
for the purpose of capturing a party of rebels,
and neglected to leave a sufficient guard be
hind ; and upon returning were waylaid and
fired upon by the seceaeisn party which had
burned the cars and station house. Captain
Petrie’s men were said to have had but three
rounds of cartridges to the man. There were
eight of them kffled. Colonel Smith’s horse,
ridden at the time by another officer, was also
killed.
Soward, the murderer of Capt. Howell, and
his sen, were last night taken to St Louis.
Lxteb.—The large bridge ou the Q. &P. K.
E. was not destroyed, but a small one four
miles west of this place was fired and partial
ly burned, to-day. The detachment which
started by this route at noon has returned, not
being able to go forward by railroad, and will
remain here until to-morrow morning.
CoL Grant’s regiment is encamped across
the river, opposite the city, awaiting the re
pairing of the bridge. CoL Palmer’s regiment
has gone by steamer to Hannibal, and will go
as far as possible by the Hannibal and St. Joe
Railroad to-night, probably.
To an unpracticed eye these movements

BccKTLAyyQK, July IL—A messenger from
Gen. McClellan’s command. Just in, reports
that two regiments, McCook and Andrews,
made a reconnoisance of the enemy’s position
last evening, and were fired upon. One of
McCook’s men was killed and S wounded.
Ihey got within 125 yards of the entrench
ments, when they were ordered buck on the
main body. The rebels are so strongly en
trenched that It will be necessary to carry the
fortifications by storm. Gen. McClellan was
to commence the work at 8 o’clock this morn
ing, and was making every preparation lost
night If the rebels make a determined fight,
a large loss of life mast ensue. A courier ar
rived from Camp Morris at Laurel Hill at 11'
o’clock last night More or less fighting had
been going on for the previous two days. The
forces were within about a mile and a half of
each other. The rebels are very strongly en
trenched, and supposed to be 8,000 strong.
The enemy had only six pounders, and them
shot fell 800 yards short of our lines. The
twelve pounders of the Federal troops are
supposed to be doing great execution. The
messenger saw come 15 or 20 bodies of the
rebels as he passed.
Col. Steadman, yesterday afternoon, advanc
ed one hundred men to draw them out from
their entrenchments, and succeeded, bat a
shell scattered them in every direction. The
courier saw but one dead body of our forces,
a fid Lieutenant; but our loss bad doubtless
been considerable more.
A cessation of hostilities took place at 6
o’clock last night inconsequence of a severe
rain storm, but the fight would be resumed
this morning.
Gen. Moms’ forces ore posted on the brow
of a bill commanding the entrenchments, and
ho had hopes of dislodging the rebels to day.
The Indiana 15th started early this morning
to join Gen. McClellan.
CoL Tyler will continue to hold Glenville.
The 10th will return this way to-morrow, on
their way to join the main column.
Lateb.— A courier, who left • McClellan’s
camp at 9 o’clock, says at 3 o’clock this morn
ing the force was divided and stationed In two
dlvisAns to surround the rebels.
Tiro prisoners were brought in, who report
ed their force at 8,500, but were very strongly
fortified.
Bucehannon, Va., July 11.—Later Intelli
gence from Gen. McClellan to 2 o’dock, states
that he had commenced erecting his batteries
on the hill sides when the rebels opened fire,
but without danger. When the courier left,
Gen. Morris still held the rebels in check at
Laurel Hill, awaiting orders to advance.
Skirmishing had been brisk and frequent for
the past twenty-four hours. Three of the 7th
and 9th Indiana regiments are killed, and one
of the Ohio 14th; and 7 wounded of , the
three regiments. An occasional shell was
sent into camp a mile and a half distant to
keep the rebels in position.
