Mr. llenry, from the Committee on Military Af
fairs, reported back the joint resolution in relation
to the lion Pierre Houle, now confined by the
enemy in Port Warred, with amendments, so that

rution (instead of exchange, j of Pierre Houle, and
all other persons illegally arrested by the enemy.”
the resolution was laid on the table for the

hack the resolution of inquiry iuto the authentic
ity und authority, if authentic, of certain reported
executions by (Jen. Bragg, of soldiers »ithout
court martial, and naked to be discharged from
the further consideration of the subject. The
reaiion tor thin request was that the Senator (Mr.
Orr,j who bad ottered the resolution had written
a communication to the committee indicating the
necessity of calling for perao is and papers which
would place the subject before tbo committee in a
form which they did not deem it expedient to con
sider it.
The committee bung discharged.
Mr. Urr, of H. moved that the resolution be
referred to a special committee of three, with au
thority to call lor persons and papers,
Mr, Burnett, of Ky., objected. The army was
acting under law, and whenever an officer diso
beyed that law, he was amenable to it, whutover
bis position. With that law the matter should be
left and,not brought hereto be investigated befoie
u committee.
Mr. Orr replied that the information upon which
ho based Ins resolution came from u source in
which he placed implicit confidence, und tbut al
though there wus a law to punish officers for tran
scending their authority, that law would scarcely
be enforced vwbere the only parties, who could
convict, were in the power of the tyrant.
Messrs. Clay, of Ala., Phelan, Wigfull, Vanoy,
and Hunter, opposed the resolution, and Mr. Clark
lavored it in a debate of some length.

Mr. Miles, of S. C., was rather surprised at this

thought that if there was any one thing more than

StateH were united, it was a change of policy from
tho defensive to the aggressive in conducting tho
war.

man from Virginia, who made the motion which

without coming to a vole, the opposition being
confined to the second resolution. On a test vote,
however, it was adopted by uyes 05, noes 15.
The resolutions, as they came from the commit
tee, were agreed to by a decided majority of the
House.
Mr. Miles, of S. 0., moved, us a substitute for
the title of these resolutions, the following joint
resolutions in relation to the late victories, aud the
crossing of the Potomac by the army of Northern
Virginia.
To this Mr. Jones, of Teun., moved to ameud
the title by adding the words, aud “Congressional
General Order, No. 1,” so as to make it read,
“Joint resolutions in relation to the late victories
end the crossing of the Potomac by the Army of
Northern Virginia.”

■ b Mi. Lincoln To the Gorilla’s 'letter Ls
makes following reply •
Dear sir — Although I did not anticipate m-r
seek a:; 7 reply to my former letter unless throua h
your official ac*3, l thank you for having accord- 1
ne, since it tr.ub'es me to say explicitly th-t
iiMib.ng was father from my thought than 10
imp, aeh in an- manner the sincerity or intensity •
of your deTouon to the earing of the Union. I
never doubted, and have no friend who doubts,
that you desire, before and above all else, to iv
i-ttsbli-h the now cei ide-i authority and vindicate
the territorial iut'-grity of tbe republic. I intend
-1 ed io raise only this question : Do you propose to
do this by obeying and enforcing tne
lows, or by ignoring, uisregarding, and in effect,
! defying them i
1 sta id upon tbe law of the land. The hii-ji -
R 1 h.rs a clear right to invoke its protection and
support against even the highest- That law—in
sti let accordance with the l*w of Nations, of 5 -
tare, and of God—declares that every traitor now
engaged in the infernal wor t of destroying our
country has forfeited thereby al! claim or color of
right lawfully to hold human beings iu slaver..
I ask cl yen a clear and public recognition that
this law is to be obeyed wherever the national
authority is respected. 1 cits to you instances
wherein ruen fleeing from bondage to tiaitors to
'he protection of our flag have been assaulted,
wounded end murdered by soldiers of the Union
—unpunished and unrebnked by your General
riemmanduig -to prove that it is your doty to
R'.bo action in the premises actioo.that will cause
the law to he procltiimed and obeyed wherevt r
your authority or that ol the Union is recognized
ai paramount. Tne rebellion is strengthened,
the National cause in imperiled, by every houi’s
delay to si tike treason this staggering blow
When Fremont proclaimed freedom to the
i-n oi rebels, you constrained him to rnodily
+■ p.oelamaHon into rigid accordance with the
J> ims o' the existing law. It was your clear right
to do so. I now ask of you conformity to the
principle so sternly enforced upon him. I ask you
to instruct your generals and commodores that
i*o loyal person—certainly none willing to render
orviee to the national cause—is henceiortu to be
regarded as the slave of uny traitor. Whili no
rightful government was ever before assailed by
s wanton aud wicked a rebellion as that of the
slaveholders against our National life, I am sure
none ever before hesitated at so simple aud pri
ll wry an act of self defence as to relieve those
wins would servo aud save it from ohattel servi
'ude 10 those who are wad ug through seas of
blood to subvert and destroy it. Future genera
tions r i'l with difficulty realize that there could
have been hesitation on this p -int Sixty years
of general aud bmiudler-s subserviency to themavo
power do not adequately explain it.
Mr. I’resineut, 1 beseech yon to open pour eyes
to the (; # that the devotees of slavery every
where—just us much in Maryland as in Mississip
pi, in Wasbmhton as in Richmond—are to day
vour enemies and the implacable foes of every
i li'.irfc to re-establish the national authority by
the discomfiture of its assailants. Their Presi
de .t is not Abraham Lincoln, but Jefferson
iivis, i oo mi-.y draft them to Berve in the war;
butt will only fight under the rebel flag.
There 13 not in New York to day a man who
i- oily be'ii:. es m slavery, loves it, and deaires its
jei pi-tcation, who hua.lity desires the crushing
••nr of r.-bc.boo. He won Id much rather save
iho lt-public by baying up and pensioning off its
i!'«ui:anls. His “Union as it was” is a Union of
which ,ou were not President, and no one who
truiy wished freedom to ail ever could be.
it these are truths, Mr. President, they are
•surely of the gravest importance. You cannot
safely approach the great and good end you so
intently meditate, by shutting your eyes to them.
Your deadly foe is not bl.nded by any mist in
which your eyes may ba enveloped, lie walks
straightte his goal, knowing well his weak point,
ami most unwillingly betraying hi3 fear that you
too may see and lake advantage of it. God graut
that h:3 apprehension may prove prophetic.
That yon may not unseasonably perceive these
vital truths as they villi shine forth ou the pages
of History—that they may be read by our children
irrudicted by the glory ot our National salvation,
not rendered lurid by the blood-red glow of Na
tional conflagration aud ruin—that you may
promptly and practically realize that slavery is to
be vauquisbed only by Liberty—is the fervent and
anxious prayer of
Yours, truly, Horace Grek ley.

Movb.mknts in Westsrn Viikhnia —From a
gentleman who arrived in this city yesterday, we
have some interesting particulars of the move
ments of the forces under Major General Loring,
in Western Virginia Ou Saturday week the army
broke camp at their former headquarters, (the
Narrows of New river, i.i Giles county,) moving
in fileo columns. These three columu3 formed a
junction on Tuesday morning at Shady Springs,
in Raioigh county, und that evening encamped a
short distance beyond Raleigh Court House. On
Wednesday they reached McCoy’s in Fayette
county, nine miles southeast of the Court House.
On Thursday morning they continued their march
in fine spirits.
Tne enemy wero rapidly retreating before our
so: c o, and left italeigh (jourt House only a few
days before the entrance of our forces. They
mi .bored about 2,ouw. At that place they cut
poll holes in nearly every house, declaring their
intention to make a stand against the rebel forces.
Ho suddenly did they leave on hearing of the ap
proach of our troops that a number of Union men
who wore preparing to leave with them, were left
behiud to fall into the hands of our soldiers. The
whole of the Greenbrier Valley baa been evacua
ted, the enemy moving in the direction of the
Kanaw ha Valley,
Our informant says that within the last ton days
not less than eight hundred loyal Western Vir
ginians have passed through Greenbrier county,
<n route to join t .e forces of Gena. Luring und
yd. Theaa represent that thousands of others
will unite with our forces aa opportunity affords.

Business Courtship.— There is a story extaut
about a live minutes’ courtship between a thriv
and busy merchant in a watering place of
l.'ngland, and a lady, for whom, in conjunction
with a friend, ha was a trustee. The lady called
1 his counting house, und said that her business
wa i to consult him on the propriety or otherwise
of her accepting an oiler of marriage which she
had i. eoived. Now, for the first time, occurred to
the Bristol mercbuut the idea ot this holy estate in
his osvu case.
“Marriage?” said he, listlessly turning over
loinc West India correspondence. “ Well, I sup
•pose everybody ought to marry, though such a
thing never occurred to me before. Have you
given this gentleman an affirmative answer?”
“ No.”
“Are vour feelings particularly engaged in the
matter?'’
Not particularly.”
“ Well then, madam,” said he, turning around
o ii office stool, “l! that he the case, and if you
c mid dispense with courtship, for which I have
no 'on », and think you could bo comfortable with
me, I uni yopr humble servant to command.”
i :ie w.to people who thought that the lady
had c. purpose in going there, hut if so, she pru
dently disguised is. She said she would consider
the matter. The Bristol merchant saw her out
with the same coolness as if she was merely one
of his correspondents, aud when she was gone five
minutes, was immersed in his ledgers and letters.
V day or two alter, he had a communication from

Those parties state that our soldiers ware re

have received instructions from the State of Mary

per cent., as well as the ordinary English income
tax, from the coupons first due in Loudon on Ma

Lord Palmerston, in a speech at Melbourne, re
lerred to the Trent affair, which, he said, was set

America could not have refused the satisfaction

she has herself maintained and considered es

The only triumph was the triumph of truth and

maintaining.
The London Times reiterates its arguments that

that the lime for compromise ot some kind has

The Times then draws an analogy between the

THE LATEST.
London, August 30, P. M.—The Times has ail
article on the extraordmay position of the Demo
cratic party in America. It says they are fighting
in a cause for which they feel the most boundless
devotion, but at the same time in behalf of a poli
cy and party they detest. It regards Mr. Vallan
digham o recent speech as an exposition of the
feelings of the Democrats, and thinka their dem
onstration in every way important, as it serves to
show that, in additiou to other difficulties, Presi

against his own army and arbitrary acts.
\ sllow Fever at Wilmington, N. C.—Tho
Journal of the 16th is authorized by the Mayor
ot Wilmington, to state that he had made diligent
inquiries, and found the whole number of cases
pronounced to be yellow fever, to be five, up to
that time. On the 15th there was only one new
case, and none the day following. The Journal
remarks :
We feel no apprehension personally on the sub
ject of Vellow Fever, as we do not think there is
any likelihood of its becoming epidemic. It is not
to be denied, however, that this is emphatically
the sickly season here, and that there is an unus
ual amount of sickness in town, so that, while
there is no cause for panic, there is un urgeut
necessity for the adoption of every proper pre
caution. With the public mind once directed to a
particular subject, everything is referred to that
subject, so that now, every form of fever is imme
diately supposed to be Vellow Fever, and every
death is referred to that disease. The great
amount of moisture and the continued heat, to
gether with the suspension of the steam mills and
turpentine distilleries are all unfavorable to the
general health, so that, not on account of Vellow
Fever, but on account ot tho sickliness of the sea
son, we would advise families who are out of town
and can conveniently stay away lor a few weeks
to do to.

cold blood tw7> peaceful cit zens. I have no claim
to the title, being plain colonel, but am doubtles
the officer alluded to. Some journal lauded me
during the late White river expedition, for the
alleged hanging of two hostages. General Leo
censures me tor the same supposed aet. Tho
praise and censure are alike undeserved, and the
charge in both cases without the shadow of
foundation in fact. However many of them
have deserved different treatment, not a man
was killed by the troops under my command ex

llcrrah for the Women. —On Monday last the
conscripts from the north regiment in this county
marched from this place to take the cars at High
Point for the camp of instruction at Raleigh.
Upon their arrival at the latter place the roll was
called and the astonishing fact became apparent
that there was aboard one more soldier than tho
enrolling officer had names upon his list. This,
of course, involved an investigation, when it was
discovered that the features of one claiming to be
a conscript were quite too fair and tine for that of
the sterner sex. The soldier was charged with
being a female, when she confessed the truth and
acknowledged that she determined to accompany
her friends in the perils of war, and avenge ihe
death of a brother who fell in the fight near Rich
mond. We have heard of nothing in any degree
to impheite the geod character and standing of
this gallant heroine.— Winston H. 0. Sentinel.
Ax Absent Minded Cripple.—A few mornings
ago, just previous to the starting of a train lor
the east on the Montgomery and West Point Rail
road, a young man was observed standing upon
the platform in the depot, leaning heavily on a
pair of crutches, lie was apparently badly crip
pled, and incapable of rapid locomotion. While,
however, his attention was turned iu an opposite
direction, the cars started, and frhen he looked
around, he saw them goiug out of the depot, leav
ing him behind. Instantly comprehending his
situation, he threw his cratches away, and ran
with Flora Temple speed in the direction of the
receding train. He soon succeeded in reaching
the hindmost car, and got aboard, abandoning his
crutches and his lameness at the same time. It is
said he was a conscript, and will be no doubt
greatly rejoiced at his sudden recovery.—Mont

Thk New Yobk Tribune's Assault upon Mc-
Clellan. —The following is the passage in the
New York Tribune’s account of Ihe battle of
Manassas, which caused such a great excitement
in New York and Philadelphia :
Gen. McClellan is universally and bitterly blam
ed for this reverse. If his troops had been sent
forward when they were ord -red, Pope would
not have been compelled to fight with half his
army against the whole force.
Sumner and Franklin, who oniy reached the
field last night, too late for the fight, should have
been there three days ago.
McClellan was three times ordered to move and
refused, and by a general order this morning is
removed from the command of all trsops, except
those remaining in Alexandria.
When applied to by Gen. Pope on Friday to
send supplies to his starving army, he returned
word that he would not send them unless Pope
| sent a cavalry escort for the trains. And at this
tune all McClellan’s forces were held idle at
Alexandria.
Treachery, is openly imputed to McClellan as
the only explanation of his extraordinary con
duct.

From the Richmond Examine* of 18(4.
Xlie Financial Condition of t!ic confed
eracy.
We are enabled, from papers before Congress,
to prepare a succinct and interesting statement
of the financial condition of the country, and to
enlighten the public as to the amount of our pub
lic debt; its class; und receipts at the public
Treasury up to the Ist August, and the probable
demands that will he made upon the resources of
the South iu view ot the continuance of the war
and the exigencies of the country arising there
from. We distribute this information under ap
propriate heads.
THE PUBLIC DEBT OF THE CONFEDERACY.
It is ascertained froui official data, furnished
by the Treasury Departmant, that the whole ex
penditure of the Gover iment from its commence
ment to the Ist of August last, amount to §347,-
272,958 85. It should be slated, however, that
live millions of the amount charged as expendi
ture, has been paid for the redemption of deposit
certificates, und the aggregate above stated is sub
ject to that abatement when considered iu the
light of actual expenses.
The expenditures up to the Ist of August are
as follows :
War Department §193,876,549 41
Navy Department 14,605,777 86
Civil and Miscellaneous. 15,766,503 43
$328,743,830 70-
To which must be added outstanding requisi
tions upon the Treasury, upon which warrants
are not yet i-.sued to tho amount of $18,524,-
128 15 ; making the aggregate, as stated above,
$347,272,958 85
CLASSES OF TUE PUBLIC DEBT.
An examination of our funded debt account
will show that a lamentably small portion of our
public debt exists in this lorm. The whole amount
of bonds and stocks issued is as follows :
Eight per cent stork and bonds $41,577,250
Six “ “ call certificates 32,784,400
$74,361,650
This statement indicates an evident indisposi
tion of our people to make investments iu this
form, aud furnishes an explanation of much of
that disturbance of the standard of value and
enchaucement of prices in the country, which
have been the consequence of the large and dis
proportionate issue ot Treasury notes.
The issue already made of Treasury notes
amounts to $183,244 135; leaving authority to
issue $16,755,865.
RECEIPTS AT THE TREASURY.
The receipts at the Treasury up to Ist of Au
gust, from all the various sources of income, are
as follows:
From Customs $ 1,437,399 96
From miscellaneous sources 1,974,769 33
From Loan Act, of February 28tb,
1861 15,000,000 00
From Loan act, of August l ( Jth,

Frem Temporary Loan from bks..
—balance 2,625,000 00
From War Tax 10,589,910 70
$302,555,196 60
This statement of receipts is short of the whole
amount of tho expenditures ol the Government
by $44,717,762; on account of which the Govern
ment has authority to issue only balance of Trea
sury Notes, $16,755,165, leaving $27,961,897 to be
provided for by Congress iu a further extension of
the general currency, unless this balance can be
paid by tho bonds or otherwise.
FUNDS To HE RAISED BY TUB FIRST OF JANUARY.
It is supposed that the authority to issue gene
ral currency notes must also be extended by Con
gress to meet the appropriations already made
by it and not yet paid, and also the further ap
propriations to be made.
The appropriations already made
by Congress and not drawn on
Ist of Aug., amount to $164,687,389 93
The estimates submitted by the various De
partments of the additional supplies required to
make good the .deficiencies and to support the
Government to Ist January next, are as follows :
For the War Department..’ $44,373,590 30
“ Civil list 386,607 39
" Miscellaneous 102,899 38
a ' $44,863,097 13
ho that the whole amount of sup
plies required to Ist of Janua
ry presents a total of ..$209,550,487 06
Congress is left to determine the best mode ot
raising this sum; and as there seems but. little
prospect of raising the money by a sale of bonds
or stock, a resort tj Treasury notes seems to be
all that will be left to its discretion.
INTEREST DEAUINO NOTES.
The experiment of diminishing the quantity of
circulation by interest bearing notes and deposits
on call is said to have beeu very successful and
is likely to be encouraged as .a relief from excess
in the quantity ol the national currency which
as it exceeds tne nsual business wants of‘tbe com
munity, must be productive of high prices with
out relation to the aetnal value of the currency
It is understood that the interest notes, although
current to a certain degree, have been generally
withdrawn from circulation, on account of their
value as temporary investments. Most of them
have been taken under the belief that the interest
would be paid like other interest, and the Secre
tary of the 1 reasury has encouraged this belief
by a recommendation to Congress that the inter
cst should be paid annually.
PROSPECTS OP ANOTHER WAR TAX—PAYMENT BY THE
STATES, ETC.
It is supposed that Congress will be under the
necessity o! ptovidmg another war tax From
