They then adjourned to meet again at 7 j o'clock, and at that hour nearly all the members | from the slave holding States were present.

Mr. Minifco ol Ky. made a very able speech—so did Mr. Preston and Mr. Crittenden. —Messrs. Hives, and Calhoun also spoke arid Mr. Calhoun of Ky.of the House also participa ted in the discussion.

Ex. presses from the cavalry were at intervds de spatched for I.aclnne, so as to keep up a constant communication with the loyalists iticro.

The troops took up their quuilers at St. Mar.in, j during ilia night of Wednesday, and departed at j about 7 o’clock yesterday morning toward St J Euslache, but not in a direct tine, for it was un derstood that tbe ice on the river in lb.it way, was not sufficiently strong to bear '.tic weight of so heavy a body as ihe'arnllery and cavalry. ' A detour was, in consequence, taken toward j St Hose, where the ice was crossed from Isle s Jesus to the main land. The line of march then „ proceeded upward, along the right hank of the river, until (he troops approached tho village ol St. Euslache; making a march from St. Marlin of about twelve miles, whereas, in a direct line, it would only consist ol about six or seven. , The Hoops were first filed upon by the rebels from the chuich of St. Euslache, a considerable lime before any position had been taken. Upon coming within the proper range, two field-pieces were planted on the north-east side of the church, and began to play upon it in excellent style, j while another field piece was sent round in icar j of the village, ami stationed where it commanded 3 a street icadi g directly to the front door of the a same edifice. Tho three regiments and the cavalry, in the meantime, made a circuit round the village in the rear ; and look up positions to intercept the 1 rebels, when they should be compelled to aban- , don their position. The church having at length been set on fire, the rebels were seen flying in I every direction, hut not without many of them 1 having been killed and taken prisoners-. Tho nunnery and presbytery, situated on cith er side of the church, which were occupied by the , tebels, were also destroyed, as well as several olh- | ler bouses in Ihe village, particularly these of j j Scott and Chenier. 1 The loss on either side lias not been accurately 1 ascertained; but it is repotted that eighty of lire rebels have been killed, and more than a bun- j dred taken prisoners. Dr. J. 0. Chenier was killed in tire yard of the-church. i The commander-in-chief, Girod, and Fen-ol Peltier, are said to have lakcn to fight, toward St. Benofl. immediately after the first lire. On the pait of the troops, wo have no accounts of any having been killed except one man. ; Mr. Gugy, while storming the saeristie, was 1 severely, but not dangerously wounded, in the < left shoulder, tlie ball coming out at the right arm 1 The blaze arising from the burning bouses at St. j Euslache, was distinctly seen last night, from the rising ground in the rear of this city, toward the old race course. Having taking possession ofSl. EustaVlie, the 1 troops proceeded, early tliis morning, to St. Ben- ( j oil, or Grand Biule, where, it was said, the re- , bids were strongly tori died. A report has gained general currency in town, j that a doputalion from'the rebels at St. Benoit had been sent in, demanding terms; to which the 1 commander of tho forces is said to have given for | answer, that they must surrender at discretion, lay down their arms, and give up their leaders, Whether these terms have been complied with, we have not yet learned.
