EMr. Latham reported to the Senate to-day, a bill

the Amoor river. A dispatch to General McClellan,
announcing the capture of Fort Donelacn, was re
ceived with loud applause, as also another announ
cing that Savannah, Ga., had also been taken. The
resolution in regard to the Oregon war debt was
passed. The bill for the better organisation of the
cavalry was then taken np, and, after some discus
sion, was laid over. On motion of Mr. Johnson a
joint resolution was passed tendering the thanks of
Congress to the officers and soldiers and seamen of
the army and navy, for their heroic gallantry, under
the providence of God, for the brilliant victories
they have achieved over the enemies of the Consti
tution and the Union.
In the House, the news of the success of the fed
eral arms in Tennessee was received with applause,
and several ineffectual attempts to adjourn were
made. Mr. Gooch called np the joint resolution
authorizing the Committee on the Conduct of the
War to employ a stenographer, and called upon Mr.
Wiokliffetotttate on what authority he made the
allegation last Friday, against the manner in which |
the committee had performed, its duties. Mr. Wick
liffe repeated that he had seen it stated that the
committee had had Gen. MoClellan before them. —
Mr. Gooch by what authority the assertion
was made, to which Mr- Wick liffe replied by asking
whether Mr. G. denied it. The latter then stated
■that the committee had an interview with the gen
eral, but he was not summoned as a witness. Mr.
Blair read a dispatch from Gen. Patterson, dated
July 20, 1861, to Col. F. D. Townsend, stating that
General Johnson had left Winchester with thirty
thousand troops the day previons. This brought oat
a discussion upon the merits of Gen. Patterson,
which was followed by remarks upon the necessity
of any committee on the conduct of the war. The
resolution was then adopted. Mr. Lovejoy called up
the bill, heretofore introduced by him, from the
Committee on Agriculture, for the establishment of
a department of agriculture, which was passed by a
vote of 152 to 7. Mr. Bair, from the Military Com
mittee, reported the Senate bill making appropria
tion for the signal service of the army, which was
also passed

Mr. Harris introduced a bill in the Senate, to-day
declaring the forfeiture of the rights and. privileges
of certain persons, under the Constitution of the

Mr. Wilson a resolution was adopted directing the
committee on the 'District of Columbia to inquire
into the judicial management of the jail in Wash*
ington. The joint resolution, passed by the House,
for illuminating the public buildings next Saturday,
was adopted. The cose of Mr. Starke was then
taken np, and Mr. Hale moved that the case be re
committed to the Committee on the Judiciary, with
instructions to report on the foots bearing upon his
loyalty or disloyalty. Mr. Sumner argued that the
question of loyalty was a necessary qualification to
lake the constitutional oath, and was followed by
Mr. Trumbull, who took the same view. Mr. Carlile
thought the Senate only had the power to expel a
member for what might be done after he had taken
his seat. The debate was kept up by Messrs. Clark,
MoDougal, Ten Eyck, Davis, Morrill, Fessenden,
Foster, Dixon, Nesmith, and Henderson, and pending
the question tho Senate adjourned.

ning, the 22d inst. Mr. Washburn then offered a
resolution, which was unanimously adopted, that out
of respect to the memory of the brave men who have
been killed and wounded in the recent federal victo
ries, and of admiration of the courage of all who
were engaged in them, the House adjourn.
Wednesday, February 19.
Mr. Hale, from the Naval Committee, reported
book to the Senate to-day the bill for the temporary
increase of midshipmen in the Naval Academy, with
a resolution that it be indefinitely postponed ; also a
joint resolution of thanks to Capt. Wilkes, which
was indefinitely postponed. Mr. Rice, from the
Military Committee, reported a joint resolution
authorizing the Secretary of War to confer the bre
vet rank of lieutenant general for eminent services.

Courts of the United States was passed. On motion
of Mr. Wilson a joint resolution was adopted author
izing the President to present prizes and medals to
the enlisted men of the army and navy and marine
corps who may have distinguished themselves in the
war. The bill for the better organization of the
cavalry was taken up and passed. The Senate then
went into executive session and confirmed a number
of military, naval, and civil nominations, among
which were Brigadier General Grant as major
general, and Colonel Garfield and General Shields
rs brigadier-generals.
In the House, Mr. Campbell, from the Pacifio
Railroad Committee, reported resolutions, which
were adopted, calling on the Secretaries of War and
Navy to furnish the House with statements showing
the expenses of transportation for the last five years
of arms, munitions, troops, eto., between the Atlantic
and Gulf ports tothe Pacific; and also on the Secre
tary of State to furnish the last annual report of the
government of Colorado, and the accompanying
documents if not incompatible with the public inter
ests. Mr. .Bennett (delegate from Colorado,) offered
a resolution, which was adopted, instructing the
Committee of the Judiciary to inquire into the ex
pediency of legalizing all consummated litigation I
under the Miners' and Peoples’ Court in Colorado
prior to the organization of that territory. Mr.
Hickman offered a resolution that a committee be
appointed to inquire into the truth of a statement in
the Baltimore Clipper, that in the office of the
South, a secession Bheet, recently suppressed in that
city, were found letters written by Mr. Vallandig
ham, containing treasonable matter. Mr. Vallandig
ham at once denied the statement in toto. Mr.
Hickman urged that even a suspicion of loyalty
would justify such an investigation as the resolution
proposed, whereupon a long debate between the two
gentlemen endued, which was dosed by Mr. Hick
man’s withdrawing the resolution. The House then
went into Committee of the Whole on the Senate’s
amendments to the treasury note bill, most of which
were adopted, and the bill was reported to the House.
Thursday, February 20.

House, appropriating $l,OOO for illuminating the

the Whole on the Senate’s amendments to the Treas
ury note bill, and Mr. Stevens spoke against their
adoption. Several ot these amendments were disa
greed to, and the bill was sent baok to the Senate.—
The postoffice appropriation bill was taken up in the
Committee of the Whole, and Mr. Voorhees made a
speech against any interference with slavery, and in
favor of adhering strictly to the Constitution. The
Senate’s amendments to the army bill were,concurred
in, and the House adjourned.
Friday, February 21.
Both branohes of Congress adjourned to-day after
passing a resolution of condolence with the President
in view of his recent affliction. The House amended
the resolution so as to omit the proposed illumination
o&'the public buildings.
ANDREW JOHNSON
That noble old hero, the Honorable Andrew
Johnson, of Tennessee, in the course of his
remarks in the United States Senate the
other day, said:
I am a Democrat now ; I have been one all
my life; I expect to live and die one ; and the
corner stone of my Democracy rests upon the
enduring basis of'the Union. Democrats may
come and go, but they shall never divert me
from the polar star by which I have everbeeD
guided from early life—the great principles of
Democracy upon which this Government rests,
and which cannot be carried out without the
preservation of the Union of these States.
The Bostop Courier, after remarking
upon the expulsion of Mr. Bright from the
U. S. Senate, which it approves, goes on to
say:
“ But Mr. Bright should not suffer alone ;
there are greater.offenders against the Union
than the Jndiana Senator. The scoundrels
■who are swindling the Government, from Sec
retary Welles’ brother-in-law to the sutlers
who rob the soldiers, are as guilty, aye, more
guilty; and while he has rightly enough been
shut out of the Senate, thousands of the spec
ulating scamps should be shut up in the peni
tentiaries. We believe with Senator Hale,
that if the Union cause is lost, it will be
through the knavery of the employees of the
Government, and not from the strength of
the rebels. We shall chronicle with the
greatest pleasure the first punishment of some
one of the leeches who have been detected in
sucking the lifeblood of the Government.—
.As yet, however, they have all escaped.”
The Washington Siar,. in an article
which is evidently published by authority,
says that “ the end and aim of all Gen.
McClellan’s military combinations is the res
toration of the Union just as it existed before
the rebellion began.”
—Does this mean with Jeff. Davis, Slidell,
Mason and Breckinridge, in the Senate, and
with Floyd and Thompson as members of the
Cabinet, and all the blessings of Pro-Slavery
domination of which they were but the expo
nents?—A 7 . Y. Tribune.
Certainly not! It means a restoration of
the Union under the Constitution, with Davis
& Co., in exile or in prison, their estates con
fiscated, the revolted States under loyal ad
ministrations, the main body of their citizens
protected in a return to allegiance by general
amnesties, the slavery question, which twenty
States have already extinguished or forbidden,
to be left to be disposed of in the remainder by
local laws. j
That Constitution and Government under
which for eighty years the republic has ex
panded and flourished is good enough for us,
and good enough for Greeley. It is the only
one the American people have ever shown ap
proval of—and that approval is more nearly
unanimous, and more warm and unqualified,
than any nation ever rendered to its
ment. The fanatics, who are attempting to"
destroy the only truly people’s Government in
the world, are traitors, and enemies of Repub
lican institutions. —Albany Argus.

ing facts connected with the recent triumphs of our

much in the present struggle to testify its unshaken
loyalty to the nation, ana to vindicate its ancient

vivors of these hard fonght fields their sense of the
great service rendered to hut common country, they

POSTAGE STAMPS.
Mr. Worley submitted the following :
Whereas, The alleged unauthorized receipt of
postage stamps from the Postmaster of Harrisburg,
by some of the members of the House, has been
made the basis of newspaper oharges against mem
bers by name;
And lotiereas, Such chargea'have been published
in a newspaper controlled and edited by one of the
members now sitting in the co-ordinate branch of the
Legislature, imputing dishonesty to a member of the
House; now that the truth in this whole matter may
be heard, therefore,
Resolved , That the Clerk of the House be, and he
is hereby, required to lay before the House, in writ
ing, ah account of the authority by which he permit
ted such postage stamps to be procured, if they were
procured by his authority; and communicate to the
House an account, in writing, of the authority or
direction under which he delivered any stamps to
members, with a list of names of members who did
procure such stamps from said Postmaster, with the
number procured by each.
The Speaker declared the preamble and resolution
out of order, as being a reflection upon a member of
the co-ordinate branch of the Legislature.
Mr. Worley then withdrew the second preamble,
and the first preamble and resolution was again pre
sented to the House, when
Mr. Ritter moved the indefinite postponement of
the matter.
On the question,
The yeas and nays were required by Mr. Hoffer
and Mr. Crane, ana were as follows, viz:
Yeas— Messrs. Bates, Brown, (Northumberland,)
Caldwell, Chatham, Donnelly, (Philadelphia,) Gra
ham, Hess, Hopkins, (Philadelphia,) Josephs, Labar,
M’Manus, Quigley, Ritter, Ross, (Luzerne,) Schrock,
Wildey and Ziegler—l 7.
Nats— Messrs. Abbot, Alexander, Armstrong,
Banks; Beaver,' Beebe, Bigham, Blanchard,
Bliss; Boileau, ; Brown, (Mercer,) Busby, Cessna,
Cochran, Cowan, Crane, Dellone, Dennis, Doneley,
(Greene,) Dougherty, Doffield, Elliott, Pox, Preeland,
Gamble, Grant, Grws, Happer, Henry, Hoffer,
Hoover, Train*, Kennedy, Kline, Leman,
Lichtenwallner, M’Clellan, Moore, Pershing, Peters, 1
Potteiger, Bamsey, Khoads, Boss, (Mifflin,) Howland,
Bussell, Byon, Scott, Shannon, Smith, (Chester!)
Smith, (Philadelphia,) Vincent, Wakefield, Warner,
Weidner, Williams, Windle, Wolf, Worley _ and
Bowe, Speaker — 6o.
So the question was determined in the negative.
Mr. Williams moved to amend by offering the fol
lowing as a substitue:
That the Postmaster of Harrisburg be requested to
furnish to the House the names of its members who
have received postage stamps on the credit of the
State, and the amount thereof, if any, included in
the bill or bills rendered by him to the committee of
the two Houses and approved by them.
The amendment was agreed to; and
The question recurriag on tho resolution, as
amended,
Mr. Cessna moved its postponement for one week,
| which, after some discussion, was withdrawn.
| The resolution, as amended, was then agreed to.
pjg- The following, which we cat from the
columns of the Pottsvllle Miners? Journal, is
one of the curiosities of newspaper literature:
“ We have it on good authority, that within
the past week, Hon. David Wilmot and Hon.
Simon Cameron have been in Harrisburg, and
that the matter of substituting Mr. Wilmot as
Mioister to Russia, in place of Mr. Cameron,
was the subject under consideration. The
prime movers in this new arrangement, are
said to be parties who through the complai
sance of Mr. Cameron, have made fortunes
during this war, and who, not yet gorged, are
anxious to keep Mr. Cameron in this country,
for the purpose of adding to their ill-gotten
gains, through his influence. We respect Mr.
Cameron for the labors he has performed.—
We believe that he endeavored to do his duty
while Secretary of War, but that the pressure
upon him of hordes of rapacious and thieving
Democrats, whose trade is raids in every im
aginable shape, on the public treasury, was
too strong, and that he deviated from the
strict line. We hope that Mr. Cameron will
repudiate this new movement If not, the
President, we trust, will not consent to the
proposed change.”
What a melancholy instance of mi&laced
confidence, that Simon Cameron
voring to do bis duty as Secretary of War like
an honest man and a patriot, should have been
surrounded by “hordes of rapacious and thiev
ing Democrats” and his unsuspecting good
nature imposed upon ! These Democrats are.
at the bottom of all mischief, and they never
did anything more detestable than when they
inveigled Simon into “raids of every imagina
ble shape on the publio treasury,” and be
guiled him to his ruin.
If there is one pre eminent qualification for
which Mr. Cameron has heretofore been lauded
by his friends and admirers, it is his thorough
knowledge of men and general business talent.
Can the Miners’ Journal, or any other apolo
gist of the ex-Secretary of War, inform us bow
he happened to commit so great a blander,
with all his knowledge of Pennsylvania politics
and politicians, as to surround himself with,
this Tapacious and thieving horde ? This is
mystery number one. Mystery number two
is, that a man of such profound financial sa
gacity should have furnished Mr. Alexander
Cummings with an unlimited supply of money
wherewith he purchased London porter, Scotch
ale, linen pantaloons, straw hats and other
military supplies; and stranger Btill, that up
to the latest advices, Mr. Cummings had nei
ther disgorged or settled an account of his dis
bursements with the War Department. A free
and easy system this—good for Cummings, but
bad, exceedingly bad for the Treasury.
But we suppose it will be contended that
Cummings was a “ rapaciouß and thieving
Democrat,” who imposed upon the easy and
unsuspecting confidence of the late Secretary.
Various reasons are assigned why Mr. Cam
eron desires to go back to the United States
Senate. The Journal seems persuaded that
the object is mere plunder. Others say that it
is to punish the President and his Administra
tion, and others again that the thought of Rus
sian exile is extremely distasteful. But what
ever motives may be at the bottom of tho
movement now on foot to effect a trade between
these exemplary statesmen, Cameron andWil
raot, the very worst look we oan wish the Re
publican party is that they may succeed. If
the Republicans wish to hang a millstone
around the neck of their party that will Biuh
them deeper than plummet ever sounded, let
them elect Simon Cameron to the Senate and
make his name and reputation an issue in the
next canvass. —Patriot & Union.
