FRIDAY, JUKE 18, 1862.
MEMPHIS tJNDEB THE LAW.
Our Memphis dispatches this morning
arc of unusual interest, as showing tho
stale of affairs in that city. What is wanted
is the linn establishment of Federal rule
there in strength sufficient to reassure the
rebels that there will be no after-clap and
return of the rebels to the city. this
assurance will be shortly given.
CUMBERLAND GAP.
An advance into East Tennessee has at
last commenced, according to a dispatch
-from Indianapolis. The army under Gen,
Morgan, so long apparently inactive a
Cumberland Ford, is in motion, and has
gone forward to complete the work so
completely and successfully prosecuted in
Middle and Western Tennessee. We shall
have stirring news from that quarter in a
few days.
NOW IS THEiR XI HE,
Kbw will be an excellent time for our
Chicago sympathizers with the rebellion to
serve humanity in aiding the South. Theae
men and women of Kentucky and other
Slates, who have not in the war
thus far given one moment's
thought or care to the cause of the gov
ernment, but who, living the while
in a free State, have insulted and outraged
Jhc city they have made their home, by
outspoken words of treason, now is the
time for these home traitors to help on
the Southern side, and for this cause we
bespeak the efforts of the secret seces- 1
€ion sewing circles and associations
that went into operation with such
vigor immediately after the estab
lishment of the present army of rebel
prisoners at Camp Douglas. It would be
more to the taste of these spiteful women
lo aid directly those prosecuting this war
against the Government, but why will they’
Hot view in the same light the duty’ lo aid
the Southern sufferers by the war. Gen.
Hnllock’s appeal for the starving people of
Corinth and vicinity, should be, and will
be heard and responded to by loyal people
everywhere, but the Northern, secesh
should recognize the peculiar claim upon
themselves.
A DEMOCRATIC PROTEST.
TVe transfer to our columns tills mom
jag a Protest signed by a few among the
many leading Democrats of this city who
are opposed to the New Constitution, It
is a calm, temperate and well written docu
ment, and though in it the question at issue
■is discussed solely from a Democratic stand
point,the conclusion arrived at is that which
every patriotic man, who has studied the
text of the Egyptian swindle, has already
reached, and that is, it should be toted
Dora. The signers of the paper to which
tve refer arc ami long, have been the recog
nized strong men of the party in Northern
Illinois. They have contributed the money, j
they have planned the campaigns, they j
have worked the internal machinery of all j
movements in this city and in tins end of ■
the State. Devoted to Mr. Douglas, they
Sustained him while he lived, and shed bit- '
ter tears over his open grave. It is credit
able to them that they do not dishonor his :
memory by now going over to the faction :
in the Democratic party against which he
contended down to the day ofhis untimely
death. They arc doing what their con
sciences dictate, and what would unques
tionably meet his approbation were he
now alive to lead in this campaign against
the tricksters who arc grasping after the
power of the Stale to wield ii in the inter
est of the enemies of the country. "We
commend the protest to the attention of
not only the Democracy, but the Republi
cans of the whole State.

DELIGHTS OF EAHKIHGIK C. S. A.
[Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune]
Caieo, Jane 12,1532.
A naval officer who arrived on the VT.H.B. last
evening, says that Vicksburg is deserted and
burned. I give the report for what it is
worth.
The body of Lieut. Colonel Kirkpatrick of
the 40th Indiana, who was drowned at the
mouth of Bear Creek, about forty miles above
Hamburg, on Sunday morning last, was for
warded to his friends on the midnight train
last night.
The flotilla now lying before Memphis, on
Monday evening received sailing orders for
their departure on Wednesday for Vicksburg.
If the report which I have telegraphed you,
of the burning and evacuation of Vicksburg
be true, they will be in New Orleans
in a week. The gunboats Lexington and Cairo
will remain at the levee before Memphis for
the present. The Federal ram Queen of the
West arrived at Cairo last evening and will go
to Mound City for immediate repairs. It is
sold that the enemy have mounted a battery
at the mouth of Duck Creek about forty
miles above Fort Henry, but the rumor
is disbelieved in military circles here.
The steamer Champion with sick and wound
ed soldiers, arrived from Pittsburg Landing
last evening and left immediately for St. Louis.
She brings no news of importance.
Among the sick was T. P. Robb, Esq., agent
of the State of Illinois, to look after the sick
and wounded Illinois troops.
There arc in the hospitals at Hamburg
1,500, at Monterey 1,000, between Monterey
and Pittsburg in division hosjutals, in tents,
SOO, in all 3,800 sick, about one-third of whom
are from our State.
The steamer Belle Creole arrived at Padu
cah last evening from Pittsburg Landing. At
that port her passengers were transferred to
another steamer and brought to Cairo. From.
, one of these I learn interesting particulars of
the whereabouts of the different divisions of
ouranny. Gen. Pope was menacing a large
body of Confederate troops estimated at 30,000
j Mrong. Gen. rope proposes to give them an
opportunity to fight, run or surrender.
I learn that the re Is no foundation for the
report of the establishment of a battery and
the collection of a considerable Confederate
force at the mouth of Duck Creek. The shots
fired at onr transports always proceed from
small hands of guerrillas, seldom exceeding
fifteen or twenty in number. The bodies of
Federal troops at Columbus and Bolivar are
working towards each other, perfecting re-
X-alrs on the Mobile and Ohio railroad, between
those two points. It is expected that a week
will witness the line open. The captured
Confederate gunboats Sumterand Little Rebel
are expected to-day.
There was a report last evening that Gen.
Mitchell had encountered the rebels at Chata
noogn, and defeated them with great slaugh
ter. This report purported to have been de
rived from an official from General
Halleck.
[Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.!
Cairo, June 12,15G2.
The steamer W. IL B. arrived last night
with the following dispatch:
iluMrm?. June 10,1S02—Sa.m.
The city was very quiet yesterdayand many
stores were opened and resumed business.
Some dealers in staple goods refused to take
Confederate scrip, but receive Tennessee State
money at par. The markets were sparsely
supplied with meat and vegetables. In fact.
business houses appear to be drained of their
best goods. Where they will obtain supplies
is more than storekeepers cau tell. For the
present, however, citizens are left to manage
the sanitary and financial affairs as best suits
themselves.
They will probably find some way In winch
to obtain the needed relief.
Gen. Filch was yesterday called upon by
the citizens to supply transportation to Cairo
for 4,000 bales of cotton, large amount
of sugar and 1,000 barrels molasses. The
wishes of loyal men of Memphis will be
heeded and every facility granted for the
movement of their produce, as soon as the
conveyance can be secured.
The steamers captured at this port to the
number of eight, have been taken possession
of by Gen. Fitch and the provost marshal,
and will probably be at once set to work.
Steamboat navigation will be fully opened
between Memphis and St. Louis in a few days.
Two transportation steamers, the Conway
and Jefl*. Davis, were captured yesterdayand
brought to Memphis.
Secessionists here complain of the cool
weather, the Yankees seem to have brought
with them. The month of June Is gener
ally excessively sultry here, but at present is
only about equal to your August, which is
considered moderate. Memphians go about
with heavy coats on, suffering from cold,
while we arc very comfortable. Secession
citizens are savage enough to wish for ex
treme heat, that yellow fever may be intro
duced among Northerners. That is rather
j cool on their part.
i The Memphis Argut appeared this morning,
j being its first forenoon issue. Formerly it
! was an evening paper. The present issue is
• filled with clippings from the Northern press,
! no Southern papers being in the editors
possession-
Tbc leaders arc tinged with bitterness and
speak onl the secession tendencies of the edi
tors. The conservative andnon-lrritative policy
so commendable in the Avalanche seem?, thus
far, seems to have been Ignored by the Argus,
A ll Article on Union sentiment sits that ex
cepting alufelig the lower classes nosuelifeel
inc has been found here by the-Northern
invaders. The niter absence of this feeling
must have surprised the Yankees.
The “ utter absence ol Union sefiSment” is
good. It is not expected, however, that the
gentleman who edits the Argus should hear
or see as much of it as the fleet and army of
the Union. The Union sentiment is here. It
only wants a chance to show its head without
the danger of losing that useful ornament of
the human frame by doing so.
The Ar>pis copies largely from the Chicago
Times. The American flig has been raised
upon the Planter’s bank, occupied by the
Provost Marshal, Cspt. Gould.
The rebel ram Sumter, captured on Friday
at this place, left for Cairo this morning. Sae
is commanded by Lieutenant H. Erben, late of
the gunboat St. Loui?. Her executive officer
is the late second master Glassford, formerly
of the mortar fleet, both are excellent and ex
perienced men.
A theatre and the Campbell Minstrels are
soon to open here. There Is a prospect that
the telegraph will be open to this place in a
few days. It was closed on Friday, but anew
Connection will probably be made at Grand
Junction.
The Southern Express office has been closed
and the agent deprived of business. It is un
derstood that the Adams Express Company,
with their usual dHligence and promptitude,
have now an agent, who is negotiating for an
office in a front row, to be opened in a few
days. With tho introduction of newspapers
must necessarily come the telegraph and the
fast express.
The poet office is also soon to go into ope
ration under the Federal auspices.
A report gained credence here yesterday,
that the rebels had reinvested Corinth, Nash
ville'and almost every other city lately cap
tured by our trops. It was also current in
secession circles that we had been repulsed
with great loss at Richmond,and McClellan and
5,000 prisoners captured. It is enough to say
that these canards came fom a reliable gentle
man whom nobody had seen.
I have seen a person who was lately with
Beauregard’s army at Corinth, and in whom
implicit confidence can be reposed, and he
says that to Ms certain and personal know?
ledge, tho rebel force at that xioSnt previous
to the evacuation, was something less than
50,000. This seems to confirm, reports made
lately by correspondents who were on the
spot. The retreat of Beauregard and his
constant repetition of that game has caused
southern people to lose confidence in him as
a general. His men are deserting by hundreds
daily. Many of his army arc known to be in
Memphis. 1 have had his officers pointed out
to me upon the streets hero, frequently. They
arc civilians now of the most civil character.
The steamers Alhambra and LaCrosse ar
rived here this morning from Cairo,

SECOND DISPATCH.
Como, June 12—10 p. m.
The steamer Dc-Soto has just arrived with
the following dispatch from our correspondent:
Memphis, Jane 11—S a. m.
The city is still quiet, and peaceable citizens
begin to fear abuse Irom Federalsless and
less. The Fcderals thus far have behaved re
markably well. Rumors of thejiresence within
six or seven miles to the eastward of the
Forrest cavalry and the known proximity of
Jeffi Thompson, with troops from Fort Pillow,
and at Hernando, Mississippi,only tweaty-fivo
miles south of here, on The Mississippi and
Tennessee Railroad, are enough to keep the
people here in a state of nervous suspense.
They fear the sudden entrance into their
midst of these ;men, knowing that their ut
most desire would be to themselves to set fire
to the city, or compel Commander Davis to
shell it, to .drive them out. There are no
pickets extended to the cast or south, from
Memphis, at present. When our add'd ional
forces shall arrive, their fears will be quickly
quieted. Men can then be spared for picket
and scouting duty.
A man who came from Hernando last cvcn
ing, reports a large force of Confederates at
that point. It is notdoubted.bat the story
as to cavalry is not believed. Troops are also
concentrated at Grenada, where so many citi
zens have fled, and it is more than probable
that the force at the former place is merely an
advance gurud of the latter. Granada will
prove a rich prize when our forces choose to
take it, provided the property there stored is
not previously run off farther into the in-*’
lerior.
A report is prevalent here that Vicksburg
has been turned to the ground by the Confed
erates. It was first deserted by the military
and nearly all ’citizens, when the roughs re
maining applied the torch, to prevent Its fall
ing into the hands of the Fcdcrols.
The story is not confirmed, but a shade of
truth is given to it by statements of citizens
in Memphis that such a thing was to bo ex
pected, only an excuse was needed for its ac
complishment.
The Avalanche of this morning has an article
upon a nnion meeting, stating that such meet
ings have been held at Columbia and Mur
freesboro, in Tenn., Norfolk county, and Cat
aract county, North Carolina. The two first
named were large and enthusiastic. It re
marks upon Ex-Gov. Neil Brown’s speech at
Columbia, and that of Audrew Johnson at
Murfreesboro, and calls them effective and
strong nulon appeals. It adds that facts and
arguments are proper appliances to accom
plish any result with southern minds, when
force and coercion will only provoke resist
ance. Men cannot love and embrace a gov
ernment that deals in persecutions and severi
ty of measures. It concludes by commend
ing the course of Col. Fitch at Memphis, and
states that it is his purpose to interfere as
little as possible with the business affairs of
the city. At the same time he will live up to
bis recent orders to the very letter, and de
sires the people to obey them. He docs not
intend to arrest and harrass the people merely
for opinion’s sake.*
The Avalanche has a correspondence from
Richmond May 31st and June 2d from the
Appeal, issued at Grenada. The letter written
describes the affairs at "Williamsburg. Great
credit is given to our forces. The rebel
loss for Saturday and Sunday is put at 1,003
killed and wounded. They eay they took 600
prisoners. Gcr, Horton was killed; CoL
Lenox of Alabama, Gen. Pettigrew of S. C.,
cud Gen. Joseph E. Johnston were wonnded.
The rebel? captured the colors of Gen. Casey’s
brigade, the 03.1 New York,
Bu&iucses in Richmond was Suspended.
Every house was a hospital.
The Memphis Argus is still very bitter in
Us products for secession. Its main leader
this morning is on the currency question. It
deprecates the attempt to throw discredit
upon Confederate scrip as sold yesterday
at a deduction of eighty-five per cent., and
says: “Our Issue of Mississippi and Tennes
see, and Memphis and Charleston railroads,and
Confederate notes, arc to-day as acceptable
as they were months ago. Instead of confi
dence being lost in them the disposition to
withhold them is grearer than before. Let
former confidence in our money be sustained.
Now is the time for people to stand by each
other.” There is not a word of truth in the
editor’s statement in this regard. A man
with gold enough can buy scrip of all kinds
to paper all the buildings in a country Tillage
at a discount of eighty per cent. Goods are
also held at that per cent, above their cost
value.
Col. Pitch on Saturday sent the following
order to Judge Swayne, of Memphis, in the
Criminal Court:
Hbauquautebs Isdiajta Brigade, )
llzMrms, Teun., June 8,1802. )
Sik: During the session of the court over
which you have the honor of presiding, von
will please confine yourself to the' hear
ing and adjudication of such cases only as
are not based upon the recognition of the right of
the State to secede from the Union, or upon the
presumption of the establishment or existence of
a Southern Confederacy, or either directly or Indi
rectly recognizing the same. In all such cases
you will cause a nnl. pros, to bo catered
therein, and cause all bonds and recognizances
or other special liability connected therewith to
he canceled. Of course, however, you will con
tinue to punish such crimes aealast society as are
recognized by the common criminal laws of the
cotmtrv as far as to your jurisdiction pertains,
and also such municipal statutes ns are intended
eimply to preserve the peace a„j orter -
mul'tT*
Trusting that your prompt compllanca with this
order will render all further interference upon my
part with the proceedings of your court wholly
unnecessary, I remain, Tory respectfully.
Your obedient servant,
. . G. K. Frrcir,
Col. Commanding U. S. forces.
To Hon. Judge Swaync, Memphis, Tenu.
Judge Swayne immediately upon re ;
ceip!' of the above, adjourned the
court, an 4 EGnt a letter to the jLrgus setting
forth his reasons for such action. First, be
considered the order a prohibition to bold
the court, unless be would do so in the manner
prescribed and dictated by said order.
Secondly—He considered it beneath the dig
nity of any Judge upon' the bench to listen to
the dictation of any person. His own con
science should be his guide in judgment of
law. Holding court under circumstances
would bo dishonorable. The article disclaims
a desire for sympathy as a martyr.
The Argus, contrary to general mage, pub
lishes what It considers as readable news' of a
proposed movement of our gunboats. Col.
Fitch will keep an eye upon that sheet here
after.

GEN. JACKSON WOUNDED IN THE
WRIST.
[Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.]
PoiiT Republic, Ya., June 9.
Stonewall Jackson took Ms trains over the
river here on Friday, and returned and gave
us battle yesterday, five miles from here, on
the Harrisonburg road. The battle for two
hours raged fiercely. Scheuck had the
right, Milroy the centre, and the Blanker di
vision the left.
Sohenck was not assailed except by skir
mish-fighting. Milroy was in the hottest of
the fight, and drove the enemy back from
point to point. The first brigade of the
Blanks? division, under Gen. Stahl, fought
well and held the enemy back for some two
hours, suffering a great loss from, the destruc
tive fire of the enemy.
The left wing finally gave way and our whole
line was ordered hack half a mile to a stranger
position. The enemy did not advance, hut
commenced a retreat, as wc learn here, pre
vious to our falling back, and by tea o’clock
this morning the whole army had crossed the
river and set fire to the bridge. We pursued
but not in time to save the bridge.
Surgeon Cantwell, of the S2d Ohio, was
wounded, not dangerously. Capt. Charles
Worth is mortally wounded. The 73d Ohio
lost four killed and three wounded.
The 3d Virginia, four killed and thirteen
wounded. The sth Virginia, three killed and
seventeen wounded. 25th Ohio, six killed
and sixty-eight wounded; Cth Ohio, four
killed and eleven wounded. Gen. Stokes’
division lost in killed, wounded and missing,
four 405 privates, and twenty-two officers.
Several colonels and captains were wound
ed, and one captain killed in the Blanker di-
vision.
Bohlen’s brigade lost two killed and seventy
wounded. The Bucktails lost one killed and
two wounded.
Our total loss will be from 100 to 115 killed,
end from 400 to 500 in killed and wounded.
The enemy’s loss was terrible. 400 of their
dead by actual count were found nnburied on
one field. From the number of their dead
scattered in other parts of the battle ground,
it is believed that there are 200 more of their
dead on the field, making their loss in killed
CCO, besides officers who were carried away.
Gen. Stewart was killed, Gen. Elsie wound
ed, Col. Houghton mortally wounded, and
Gen. Jackson wounded in the wrist.
CoL Carroll, with two regiments of Shields’
division, reached the opposite side of the
river from here yesterday morning, and at
tempted to hold the bridge, but was driven
back by Jackson. He opened with Ms artil
lery this morning on the bridge as the rebel
army were crossing, but was driven back by
the superior forces of Jackson, and retreated
down the river.
■Washington, June 12th.— A dispatch from
Gen. Fremont received at the War Depart
ment dated Port Republic, June 9th, via
Martinsburg June 12lh, states there was no
: collision with the enemy after dark last night.
Wc renewed our march this morning. On en
tering the woods in the order of battle the
rebel cavalry appeared on our flank. The en
emy was found iu lull retreat on Port Re
public.
Our advance found his rear guard barely
across the river and bridges burniug. A can
nonading during the forenoon apprised us of
the engagement which vre learned was Jack
son’s attack on Gen. Shields, who, after a se
vere engagement drove him down the river
and is now in pursuit. I have sent cavalry to
communicate with Gen. Shields.
Our loss at the battle of Cross Keys will
amount to 125 killed and about 500 wound
ed. The enemy’s loss is not ascer
tained, he carrying otf Ms dead and
wounded during the night. ‘We counted
on the march 200 rebel dead in one field.
Stahl’s brigade was in the hottest of the
fight, being the left wing, and lost in officers
five killed and seventeen wounded.
One of the Backtab ritie companies lost all
its officers. One of my stall, Cant, Donnka,
was killed.
Our officers and men. behaved gallantly and
efficiently. J. C. Fremont.

flict is said to have been maintained for four
hours by about 2,000 of our men agiinsfcthe
main body of Gen. Jackson’s army. Tac en
emy’s force became so overwhelming in num
bers .that our advance was compelled to fail
back, which it dirt in good order until it met
the main body of Shields’ command near Con
rad’s store. As soon as this was effected, the
enemy In turn retired. The lighting is said to
have been, severe and the loss -heavy on both,
sides.
A private letter states that Gen. Shields had'
previously succeeded in destroying a large
quantity of supplies belonging to the rebels
at Milford and at Conrad’s store.
The damage by recent rains, including car
rying away of bridges over the branch of the
Shenandoah River, materially interfered with
the commissary arrangements and the move

Highly Delighted.
Nashville, Tenn., June 12.—A dispatch
from Gen. Negley to Gov. Johnson announces
the success of his expedition to East Ten-
nesscc.
He took eighty prisoners, including a num
ber of prominent officers—a drove of cattle
and a large number of horses intended for the
rebel army. The defeat of Gen. Adams’ rebel
force in Sweeden’s Cove was more complete
than was at first represented. Adams escaped
without his hat, sword or horee.
The rebel batteries at Chattanooga were
silenced on the seventh inst., after a heavy
cannonading of three hours.
Our forces opened fire the nest day, and
continued six hours upon the town and ride
pits, driving the enemy out of his works, and
forcing him to evacuate the city.
They burned all the railroad bridges to pre
vent pursuit. The East Tennesseans came
out in crowds along the marsh, and cheered
our troops enthusiastically.
A great many applications are made at the
executive office for passes to Memphis.
THE FOHCE AT CHATTANOOGA.
[Huntsville Cor, Cincinnati Gazette.]
Scarcely a day passes over our heads in
which the enemy’s cavalry do not make some
demonstration against onr lines, and each time
they are met ana driven back by opponents
who seem to them really übiquitous. It la
perhaps a fact not generally known, that for
three or four weeks a large body of rebel cav
alry has been stationed in the vicinity of Chat
tanooga, wbitoer they went from Corinth
after the battle of Pittsburg Landing, owing
to tbe impossibility of obtaining forage in the
neighborhood of that place. Their numbers
ore vas iously estimated at irom 5,000 to 10,000,
ncd. in Jact” I conversed with a gentleman in
ShelbyvlUe not long since, who placed them
still higher. He was in company with a Mr.
Stamps of ShelbyvlUe, which latter gen
tleman was engaged in purchasing cottou
near "Winchester, Tennessee, when Doth were
pounced upon by tbe rebels and made prison
ers, their cotton at the same time being com
mitted to the llames. They were taken to
Chattanooga, and, after a day or two, the gen
tleman with whom I conversed was released.
Mr. Stamps, being a well known Union man,
was retained. Tne released individual consid
ers that he had some opportunity for estima
ting the numbers of the enemy, and gives it
asms candid belief that he saw at Chattanooga
no less than 15,000 horsemen. We
must, of course, take this account with some
grains of allowance; but of the presence of a
large force there, there can bo no reasonable
doubt.
GEN. NEGLEV’S LATE EXPEDITION.
rilnntsvillQ Cor. Cincinnati Commercial, 7th.]
Under an order from Gen. Mitchell, Gen.
Negler, in charge of a heavy force, left Fay
etteville on Monday last, to pay a friendly
visit to the large bodies of guerrillas infesting
the counties of Franklin aud Marion, in East
Tennessee, with additional instructions to
caff on Chattanooga, if possible, and Mitchell
seldom deems anything impossible in his de
partment.
Those guerrillas have been making sad
havoc among the people of that section, de
stroying tbe property of Union men, and all
those who will not yield to the edicts of the
barbarous conscription act. Hundreds of men
have taken refuge in the mountains to escape
imprisonment into the rebel service—not only
white, but Hack im-n. —leaving their new crops
unattended, their families subjected to every
species of insult, their last car of com
aud peck of meal taken, horses and cattle car
ried bIT, aud they left in comparative destitu
tion.
Mitchell lias been aware of these facts for I
some time, and has only waited a titling op
portunity to surprise them. To ’ecomplish
this, it needed the right kind ot a leader; !
that leader was Gen. Ncgley, Negley is bold, j
brave, and ardent, in bis attachment to the J
cause that has called him out from his Penn
sylvania home. His worth is known and ;
highly appreciated by our commanding gen i
oral. He is a Pennsylvanian, and reflects great :
honor on the old Keystone State. He found !
no rebel forces between Fayetteville and Win- '
Chester. On reaching Winchester, he learned ;
that the rebel general Adams was in command ■
of a heavy force of rebels at Jasper, some !
thirty miles distant. He at once determined ;
to surprise them. In order to do this, he was ;
compelled to make c forced march, some •
twenty miles, over a rough, mountanious j
country. This was accomplished. He soon 1
discovered their pickets, and by a well laid ,
plan, succeeded in capturing them. He im- *
mediately moved on, and within a few miles
of Jasper, came upon a large force of the
enemy.
They, the rebels, immediately formed into
line of battle, and opened with a heavy vol
ley. Coh Hambright, who was leading our
advance, replied from three pieces of artillery,
which bad been very rapidly placed in posi
tion. Only one round was neededto rout them.
They became panic stricken, and commenced ;
one of the most disgraceful retreats ever :
known. They took up a narrow lane, toward :
Jasper, closely pursued by Haggard and Wyn- ’
coop, the former of the sih Kentucky cav- j
airy, the latter of the 7th Pennsylvania cav- ;
airy. They gained upon them, and coming I
into a narrow dellle, they closed with them.
Then commenced one of the fiercest skir
mishes of the war. Our charge of cavalry
was led on by Negley’s escort, commanded by
Lients. Wharton and Fnnk. The contest was
severe. Hand to hand was the terriole saber
duel, ending in the death of 20 rebel cavalry,
many badly wounded, and some twenty pris
oners, among them Major Adams, brother of
the General,"and also two other commission
ed officers. The road for miles was strewed
with guns sabers, carbines, knapsacks, &e.
Some.oO or 60 horses were also taken, together
with a large train of commissary stores, am
munition and camp equipage.
The fly ing rebels passed on through Ja?pcr,
notwithstanding the great efforts' used by
their officers in trying to stop them. They
cursed Adams and their ill luck, and only
stopped In their frightened career when they
reached Chattanooga, having placed the wa
ters of the Tennessee between them and their
pursuers. Night closed in over the scene,
and our brave but wearied lads rested on the
north bank of the famous Tennessee. Our
causalties were two killed, of Negley’s escort,
and seven badly wounded. Though small
the enemy’s loss, and this only a skirmish,
yet nothing has taken place here, since the
capture of Huntsville, so important in its
future results, as this gallant charge of the
darirgKentuckians and brave Pennsylvanians,
led oh by such as Haggard and Wyncoop,
Col. Hambright, who ic'd the advance from
Winchester to Jasper, and received the ene
my’s fust fire, displayed great courage and
coolness. Who will dare say that this foul
rebellion will not be forever crushed, and our
Uulon sustained, nod come out of this fearful
contest like gola tried in the fire, when such
scenes as the above take place. Away
out here, amid the mountain passes of the
Cumberland, Kentucky and Pennsylvania
shake bands, and with the love of the Union
strengthening their every sinew, they rvsh
on, side by s:do, with drawn sabre, to bathe
them alike in the blood of treason and cow
ardice.
The eficct of this skirmish was soon seen.
As the retreating foe disappeared, the perse
cuted Union men of Marion began to appear.
Gen. Neglcy’s dispatch to Mnj. Gen. Mitchel
says that hundreds of Union men haveilocked
It.to Jasper, and, with tears in their eyes, hail
Mitch el and Negley as their deliverers. To
day four men came in from Coattanooga, and
report that Adams’ men came into that place
in the utmost confusion, many of them only
stopping for a time, then continuing their re
treat—to the “last, ditco,” I presume. The
distance over which t^ tt y retreated was forty
three miles.

Mr. Maynard received a telegraphic dispatch
to-day from Gov. Andy Johnson, stating that
the rebels bad fallen back from Cumberland

The Federal forces at Cumberland Ford

[Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribane.l
Washikgtok, June 13, 1332.
The hill reported from the Committee of
"Ways and Means authorizes the issue of
$150,000,000 more of Demand Treasury Notes,
legal tender, of denominations not less'than
five dollars, receivable like the others, for all
debts, loans and taxes, except duties on im
ports, and interest. It also authorizes the
Secretary of the Treasury to engrave the notes
at the Treasury Department, empowering
him to provide machinery and mate
rial, and employ persons and appoint
all officers necessary for that purpose.
Another section repeals the limitation upon
temporary deposit notes, and authorizes the
secretary to receive them to au amount not
exceeding $100,060,000, on interest not to
exceed five per cent., provided one-third of
these aggregated deposits be reserved in the
Treasury, or from the issue, to secure the
prompt payment of deposits on demand, and
that certificates of deposit and indebtedness
be received on the same terms as Treasury
notes in payment of 5 20-100 bonds.
Another section authorizes the Secretary of
the Treasury to borrow any part of the two
hundred and fifty millions mentioned in the
act authorizing a national loan, within twelve
months from its passage. All the suggestions
were submitted with the hill in letters from
Mr. Chase. Another recommendation, that
twenty-five millions he issued in notes of less
value than five dollars, was not carried out.
Senator Hall introduced a bill to-day re*
pealing the act approved June 2d, to prevent
frauds on the part of officers intrusted with
making contracts for the Government. It was
referred to the Committee on Naval Affairs,
The bill so repealed, of the passage of
which most Senators were ignorant, obliges
the War, Navy and Interior Departments to
put on file within a short time after the bids
of competition for the contracts, plans, speci
fications, etc., to give every appliemt copies
on pajment of the usual copying. A fail
ure to furnish copies subjects the contractor
to severe penalties.
The Navy Department sent up a note re
questing an appropriation of §12,500 for addi
tional clerks required by the act. Hence the
bill reporting the thing.
A second attempt of Mr. Conkling to in
sert in the army bill a section reforming mi
leage failed, the Speaker ruling is not german
to bill. A provision was inserted in the bill
subjecting army contractors to rules and ar
ticles of war.
Mr. Colfax’s hill punishing in civil courts
for fraud was also adopted- The Senate’s
joint resolution clearing the District peniten
tiary was postponed iu the House iu order to
give the Judiciary Committee time to report
according to instructions.
The Senate in executive session refused to
reconsider the vote by wMeh long lists of
lieutenants and commanders in the naval ser
vice, he restored to their former ranks over
the heads of those who remained in the ser
vice, was rejected. The vote was reconsidered
by which Sherman was confirmed. This is
equivalent to his rejection.
Thomas Clowes was confirmed as postmas
ter at Troy. The House on the recommenda
tion of the Committee of Ways and
Means, voted to-day to appoint a
committee of conference on the
amendments to the tax bill. It consists
in part, from House, of Thaddeus Stevens,
Morrill of Vermont, and Holmes. From. Sen
ate, Messrs. Fessenden, Harris and Henderson,
In the Senate, this morning, Garrett Darla
moved a resolution restoring Buckner to the
civil authorities of Kentucky for trial, and
sustained it in a speech, showing
that Gen. Buckner is an arch traitor.
The effect of tbe passage of this resolution
would be to prevent any more exchanges
since the rebels insisted upon Buckner as re
quisite, and argued that he was opposed to
the confining of hundreds of our officers in
rebel dungeons merely to gratify a personal
: feeling against one rebel no worse than others.
} Mr. Browning argued the same views. The
: resolution went over. It won’t he passed.
| The prospects are that Kentucky will fail and
a general exchange he effected.
Mr. Doolittle moved an amendment to the
Pacific Railroad bill to-day, providing for a
route from the head of Lake Superior to Pu
get Sound.
New York, June 12.—The N. T. Tribune's
dispatch says: Senator Wilson will soon in
troduce a hill into the Senate amendatory of
; the act abolishing slavery in this District. One
! section contains a defect pointed oat by the
| President in Ms message accompanying Ms
’ signature of the bill, allowing claimants who
i are minors or wives to appear before the com
j missioners by guardian or husband, and those
j who are officers in the army or navy to give
j lh< ir evidence in writing, properly attested.
! The Senate Committee on Commerce have
; under consideration a resolution inquiring
i what further legislation is necessary on the
| subject of vessels seized by the rebels and re
i captuice by cruisers.
j Senator Morrill has prepared a report aud
1 bill, which will probably be adopted by the
I committee. They are framed upon the snppo
j suion that the property in vessels seized by
I rebels never passed out of the original owners’
i possession, who are therefore entitled to them
1 on their recapture, free from all claims from
prize mont-y or salvage.
Tne members of Congress from Virginia
have been before the Territorial Committee of
the House, to which the memorial praying for
the admission of Western Virginia as a Scute
was referred. The committee hive talked
over the question presented and authorized a
bill to be reported admitting the proposed
Slate on condition that her boundaries bo
changed so as to run the line along the Blue
Ridge, instead of the Allegbanies, thus miking
the S f ate larger, giving her five instead of
three Representatives, and on the further con
dition that slavery be abolished throughout
the State forthwith—loyal masters to be com
j psnsated by the United States, and an addl-
I tional fund to be provided for the colonization
j of the negroes thus freed.

THE REBEL LOSS AT FAIR OAKS*
Military Matters in Tbeir Ltno'j,
New York, June I*3.—The Tribune says the
overwhelming superiority of the enemy m
the battle of Fair Oaks is fully ‘proved by a
partial list of wounded In Vac Richmond
Enquirer. The list is the second or third
alnady published. It the names of
wounded of sixty regiments and ten indepen
dent corps. Doubtless thev had nearly a
hundred regiments ».a the two days’ battle.
It also stated, with every probability of
truth, that the now well known North
Carolina U monism of feeling bad broken out
on Tuesday in open revolt in six North
Carolina 'regiments, being .an entire brigvde
from tl\at State, and that the brigade was~snr
ronn<aed with Mississippi and Alabama troops
in superior numbers, disarmed and placed lh
confinement.
St. Louis, June 12. — The Democr.it has a
letter from Springfield, Mo., dated June Ssh,
which says:
“Depredations of the most heinous charac
ter continue to be committed on the southern
and western border. In many instances,
peaceable citizens have_ been shot while pur
suing their daily avocations.
“Col. Richardson, who is ever ready to
met t these desperadoes, left this place a short
time since on an expedition west. Ha com
mended only two or three companies of Sti r e
militia- and it appears that he was surprised
by a far superior force in uic vicinity of
I Neosho, and after a short contest was com-
I pelled to leave his position.
1“ He had his horse shot at the beginning of
the engagement, and in failing Ms left shoul
der was dislocated, besides being wounded by
t a ball from the enemy in his right arm.
“ Notwithstanding the superior force of the
| rebels, the little band of patriots fought val
' i lionlly, until their commander was wounded,
i when they deemed it prudent to withdraw.”

SENATE.
Mr. "WEIGHT presented a petition from the
members of the bar of the state of Indiana,
in relation to the proposed bill for a change in
the judicial districts of the United States, ask
ing that Ohio and Indiana still remain, in the
same district.
Mr. LATHAM called up the resolution to
admit the gentleman claiming to he senators
from Deseret, to the floor.
3lr. HALE said that so far as he knew, such
action was without precedent.
Mr. LANE of Kansas said that when the
first Senators came from Kansas they were not
admitted.
Mr. LATHAM said that if such was the case
he had no desire to press the resolution. The
resolution was laid over.
Mr. DAVIS offered a resolution relating to
Gen. Buckner, stating that he had seduced
the State Guard of Ky., and had committed
treason, and was under indictment for treason
against the United States in the District Court
of Kentucky, and therefore be it
Ee.<dv(d, That said Simon Bolivar Buckner
onpht to be transferred to the civil authorities of
t he United States, to be tried for treason whereof
he stands indicted.
Mr. GRIMES thought the resolution had
not onght to pass. There were three officers
cf the United States who had been taken
prisoners by the yebcls; they axe now nego
tiating for a general exchange of prisoners,
including Buckner. He thought we onght not
to keep eo many of onr men prisoners for the
fake of sending back Buckner to be tried in
Kentucky.
Mr. TRUMBULL wanted to know if the
Senator from lowa (Grimes) had any reason
for supposing the rebels would keep faith and
exchange prisoners. After the battle of Bel
mont, this government surrendered prisoners
on the promise of exchange, but tue rebels,
after receiving their men, refused to give
ours, and it was welt known they refused to
deliver up Col. Corcoran, the other day, after
their privateers had been sent down to them,
lie was wfiling to make the exchange, bat he
wanted to know wind assurance there was
that the rebel government would keep their
faith.
Mr. GRIMES said the government had con
tinued to make exchanges, notwithstanding
the had taith of the rebel government.
Neither Buckner nor anybody else would
be given up until we had a like number of
prisoners delivered to ns.
Mr. DAVIS claimed that the rules of ex
change were settled by the laws of nations.
It was degradif" to the government to sub
mit to the peculiar terms exacted by the re
bels. That Buckner was one of the worst of
traitors could not be denied. Such a wretch
ought not to be exchanged, but taken, to Ken
tucky and hung.
Mr. BROWNING said while the war is in
progress the military power had no right to
deliver over prisoners of war to the civil au
thorities. If Buckner was hung it would only
inaugurate a system of retaliation.
On motion of Mr. LATHAM the resolution
was postponed till to-morrow.
Mr. "WILSON introduced a bill supple
mentary to the act for the release of certain
persons held to service or labor In the Dis
trict of Columbia.
Mr. HALE introduced a bill to repeal the
act to prevent and punish frauds on the part
of officers entrusted with making contracts

BOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
Mr. STEVENS reported back the tax bill
from the committee on Ways and Means.
The Senate made 314 amendments, a large
number ol them of an unimportant character
In order to facilitate definitive action, he
(Mr. Stevens) recommended a general non
concurrence in all the amendments, and then
asked a committee of conference.
Mr. COLFAX regarded a committee of con
ference a necessary evil, bat at the same time
they ought to reduce the disagreeing amend
ments to the smallest possible number, and
then send the latter to the conference com
mittee. He suggested that this bill should
be severely criticised aud those who vole for
it will have to answer to their constituents.
He believed that all the amendments could
be considered in three or four days.
Mr. WICKLIFFE opposed the course re
commended by Mr. Srevens, on the ground
that members would have no opportunity for
expret-sing their dissent to the offensive
amendments, nor conld they vote against
them without voting against the entire bill.
Mr. KELLOGG said that no considerations
of time should induce the House todeoart
from the ordinary mode of legislation. They,
ought to stay here during the entire time of
their office rather than hazard wrong acts in c
measure of such vass importance.
Mr. STEVENS’ motion of non-concurring
in the Senate amendment was adopted by
eighty against fifty-eight.
The House concurred in the report of the
committee on conference on the disagreeing
amendment to the Indian appropriation
bill.
