Tbe metidment of the rion. John Covode,
to the army bill is as follow d :
"Kkp. 12. And ht it further tnacted, Thet
bonnj ol thirty dollars will be paid to each
of the three months volunteers on their re
enlisting for the war, and tbnt an additional
bonus of ten dollars to each 'volutiteer be
paid where they re enlipt by companies ; and,
alpO, that an additional bonns of ten dollars
to each volunteer bo pnid when they re-enWst
by regiments, making thu bouas iu the latter
case, fifty dollars"
Has the endorsement of General Scott, the
President, and (Secretary Cameron. It will
pats tbe Sonate by Tuesday, and Immediately
become a law, by receiving the signature of
the President.
This section allows a captain to receive In
bis new company, or in bis re-enlistment pri
vates from aoy other company in bis re pi
meat, lb us, if the captnius or lieutenants in
any company are obnoxious to tbe men, they
ran secure thu bounty aud light under offi
era i'o whom they have confidence, and men
tbey can respect. An amendment will proh
ably be added to this section, allowing regi
ments to take companies from aoy part of tbe
brigade.
The object of Mr. Covode is not only to
aecnro the three monl hs men, who are now
thoroughly drilled and equal to the regular
army, but to save the expense to the Govern
inent of paying the men's expenses back to
their place of enlistment, nod then their
rctnrn in new regiments.
Tbt President says that this should have
been recommended in bis mvumgo. It is cer
tain now that unless something of this sort
be done, the efficiency of the three months
liven will be entirely lost.
Scouts, to-day, from the New York Six
teenth, were out near Mount Vernon, and
met two of John Washington's slaves run
ring off. They said all tbe rest were to be
sent south to-morrow to the Rebel army.
Tbe soldiurs told them thoy might go, when
one went back and brought eight away, and
says tbey will all go to-night.
Senator Pomeroy will introduce a bill, to
morrow, confiscating all tbe slaves in tbe
Seceded Slates, aud releasing all their obli
gations to work for the Rebels.
There is no truth in tbe report of Gov.
Ilicks being ebot.
Tbe new firm take possossion of Willard's
Hotel to morrow. Tbey puid ,100,00C for
the furniture aod ore to pay 30,000 per
annum rent.
Brigadier-General Isaac Staat, late of
Newport, II. I., had twenty two children
sixteen of whom were boys, ood nine of thum
are in tho Naval and Military service. Four
of them are in the Rhode Island Regiment,
fonr in the M asiachuselts, and one in tbe
liigliteeoth New York. Tbe father was in
tbe .Mexican war, and died in 1851, leaving
one hundred and twenty decendants.
Intelligence was received at one o'clock
from Gen. McClellao'a command, with further
important news.
Colonel Pegram, with a thousand men, had
made on unconditional surrender. The Colo
nel, who was overtaken south of Beverly, Bent
messenger to Gen. McClellan to inquire if,
in case of surrender, he would be treated as a
prisoner of war. The General replied that,
of course, while in bis hands be would be so
considered, but be could not answer as to
what disposition tbe Government would ainke
of traitors, lie then surrendered uncondi
tionally. This, we believe, was precisely the
condition on which the surrender of some of
tbe insurgents in tbe Scotch rebellion of
145 was accepted. After they had been
surrendered to tbs civil authority, if we re
member correctly, eome of tbeui were con
demned and executed for Ireusou.
Capt. Smith, from Springfield, on Thurs
day morning, gives further particulars of the
battle at Carthage. Uen McCullor.li was in
the fight with 1"9 Arkansas troops. Gov.
Jacksou and Gen. Price were present, but
took no active part. Gen. Raines' eon was
killed. The Rebel list of killed will be
between six and seven hundred. A detach
ment of 100 of Suigel'i troops left at Neosho
t bad been captured. Tbe State officers
wanted tbem shot, to which M:Culloch would
not agree.
The Richmond Examiner intimates that
tbe flag of truce sent by Colonel Taylor
was an argument on tbe subject of privateer
ing, and a threat of retaliation if the officers
or crew of ooy privateer captured are
bung.
The Third New Jersey Regiment have
erected a fence, entwined with evergreen,
around tbe graves of the Ohio soldiers who
were murdered at Vienna. Within tbe en- j
closure tbey have built a mound, neatly :
odded, on the top of which a beautiful spruce !
tree has been planted. Acts like this not
only prove tbe relioed feelings of onr volun
teers, but show with what reverence they
regard those of their bretbreu who fell in
defeuce of tbe Uuiun.
Porthkss M on no a, July 13. Forty five
uiun of Colonel liendor'a Regiment yesterday
Blrolled from Newport News without leave,
and were surrounded, a few miles from tbe
camp, by a large body of tbe Confederates,
foot and horse. One of tbem, at least, was
kuown to have been killed, and several
wounded. A considerable number of tbem
fell iuto tbe hands of tbe Rebels.
IjAtkr. A messenger bus just arrived

US" Tub Chivalry. The lote victories of
our soldiers over tbe rebel traitors of tbe
South, and their otter inefficiency and lack
of courage in battle, has so completely taken
tbe starch ont of their boasted chivalry, that
henceforth it will becomo. a bye word and
term of reproach.
CJT Our neighbors of the Democrat com.
plain that Mr. Breckinridge met with a cool
reception in tbe Hall of tbe Mouse of Repre
sentatives. As Mr. Breckinridge sympathi
zes with tbe truitors, and lent himself to their
purposes, ho could expect nothing else, if
be desires a warm reception let him join tbe
rebel ranks at once.
COWARDICE) OF TUB llHVALItY.
The present war ba shown most eoncld-,
slvely the hollowness and rottenness of Sou
thern society. . Tbs boasted chivalry of the
Booth has been pot to tbs test, sod bas
proved tbero to be wbat braggarts are, cow
ards. Before tbs war commenced three of
tbs "Northern horde" was the least number
tbat one of the chivalry would condescend to
whip, fonr or five be could manage, and wbip
even six or more In a case of emergency.
And why not t Were they rot born heroes
and gentlemen, and trained to war and wbis.
key. But events have shown tbat their
blond, like tbat of their horses, bas exhibited
their superiority only in tboir heels and tbeir
unrivalled speed, in a race. In no instance
have tbey dared to meet the North on equal
terms. Unless wbers tbey have bad great
superiority in numbers, or were stationed
behind a masked battery, they have never
ventured to make a stand. This was the
case in Missouri, and so at Phillips, Romr.ey,
Martinsbure and Williamsport. Our soldiers
were hardly permitted to approach within
shooting distance nntil they took to tbeir
beels, and at Harper's Ferry tbey did not
wait for tbe attack. Instead of each one
being able to wbip at least three Yankees,
they do not deem it prudent to meet these
Yankees with less than three to one.
Shooting down nnarined and helpless men,
firing into tbe carriages of unprotected offi
cers, on tbe way side, and other cold blooded
acts of assassination end murder, are dignified
as acts of patriotism and courage. Since the
breaking out of the rebellion end tho plun
dering of the Treasury and the Arsenals, by
Floyd, Cobb and others, tbey have exhibited
no marked superiority in anything but rob
bery, rant raciog, and theft.
This war has already developed two things
which even tbe South may learn to respect,
namely, that tbeir boasted cbivulry is some,
thing like tbat of Fulstaff's, and has been
greatly overrated, or else that tbey have
greatly degenerated, and ore unworthy sons
of worthy sires, aod that whatever opinion
they have heretofore entertained for Northern
men, they bovo found thorn fully equal to
themselves in patriotism, and more thun equal
in true courage, ability, manliness, honor, aud
gentlemanly conduct.

Some of the semi-Southern papers, of the
Breckinridge school, in this section, have
published Judge DougUs' last speech in
Cougress, in order to show that that eminent
statesman was opposed to tbe present war,
asserting, among other things, that "war is
disunion." Now these editors must be either
shamefully dishonest or exceedingly stupid in
attempting to make tbeir readers believe
anything so absurd, if they did not desire
to create a wrong impression in regard to
Judge Dooglus' real opinion of this war, why
did they not publish his last speeches and
declarations, in which be declared that, al
though opposed to the Administration of
Mr. Lincoln, in other things, tin would stand
by and sustain him in the prosecution of this
war. This declaration be mado to President
Lincoln himself in his speech to tbe Legis
lature of Illinois, and on vurious public occa
sions.
His remark that "war was disunion" wa'
made before the attack on Fort Sumter by
the rebels. As Juupe Uoulus wan a true
patriot, be did not recognize the doctrines of
Breckinridge and his traitorous allies, tbat
the rebels might rob, plunder aud destroy
tbe best Government on earth, and tbat the
North bad no right to protect themselves
nnd prevent this unboly desecration or coerce
rebel traitors into obedience.

Tbs papers say that Secretary Flojd hua
presented a pair of magnificent liornes tn.li li.
Davis. The Secretary, since his oppartiiml) '
of stealing by tbs million, has had the meaos
of figuring pretty extensively in the way of
girts. i!ut we don't believe toe 01.1 rascal
ould pay bis debts, even if his stealings were
Bve times as hugs in amount as they are.
We do not presume tbat the two horses
which Floyd has presented to Ilnvis, are the
same two that be stole from Sarin Burke, of
Jeffirson county, Kentncko, fifteen or twenty
years ago, for tho3e must be getting a little
o'd by this time. Perhaps some of Floyd's
admirers would like to know bow the old
horse thief managed his little operation with
Burke, Well, be ley sick for several weeks
in Burke's neighborhood, and when be lecov
ered and was about to start for bil borne in
Virginia, be beard Burke say be proposed
selling a very Gue pair nf burses. "Ob, don't
sell them Here," said iloyd. "L.et roe take
them to Virginia, and 1 can immediately sell
them tor you for twice as much as they will
bring here." Burke gave consent, aod Floyd
made off with the borses.
Burke wailed and waited and waited till he
got tired of waiting. At tbe end of six
months be wrote to iloyd, asking whether be
bad sold the horses. Floyd wrote back tbat
one of them bad been for some time indispos
ed, and be bad, therefore, thought it best not
to hurry the Bale, but tbnt the invalid burse
was getting 10 good condition, aud would no
doubt be very soon fit for tbe market. Burke,
not quite satiafisd that all was right, made
answer that be wanted tbe borses sold imme
diately, and tbe money sent to him, even if it
slioulii'nt be more than five dollars. To that
Floyd made no reply whatever. Burke never
received auother line from him, but, meeting
on ' of Floyd's nearest neighbors a year and a
half or two yean afterwards, he mentioned to
him the circuinstauce of Floyd's having car
ried off his horses. "Why, my dear sir," said
the gentleman, "I see those borBes every day ;
they ure 1' loyd a carnage horses, and are Con
sidered tbe finest in ourcouuty." We under
stand that poor Burke gave an energetic ex
pression to tbe emotions of bis heart.
We might give other and equally curious
accounts of Gov. Floyd's operations in tbiB
neighborhood. Certain victims of his pecu
liar financial rkill, wrote to him while he was
Secrotnry of War, having a faint hope that,
as be had riseu in positioo, he bad also riseu
in personal integrity, or at least, in personal
pride, but they were not able to altrict his
attention. No doubt bo was by far too busy
with his new stealings to be willing to have
his thnglits diverted from tbem by his old ones.

At Mouilo a war meeting was uelo recent

Speeches in favor of the war oru made by

Tub Nkw Members. Some of tbe new
members of Congress will excite the curiosity
of the gallery frequenters. McDongul, of
California, takes tbe place in tbe Senate, of
the notorious Di.Gwin, tbe Doctor having
qnieily subsided from public life never to re
appear i.gain.
Mr. Browning takes the place of the great
Illinois Senator. He is reported to be a gen
tleman of excellent abilities and popular in
Illinois with men of all parties. All will
miss Douglas from the theatre of bis greatest
achievements tbe Senate of tbe United
States. One ol the most brilliant ornaments
of that august body is withdrawn. For what
ever wijiht be tbe politics or sympathies of
the spectator, be always liked to hear Mr.
Douglas speak. He was tbe life of a runuiug
debate, and was, perhaps, tbe most poneilul
matt in a quick, running debate, the couutry
has afforded for many years.
The presence of Mr. Crittenden in the
House of Representatives will creato quite a
sensation, lie will find himself entirely out
or place there. It was with great effort that
ho in latter years he made himself beard iu
the more quiet and dignified Senate, but tbe
whirlpool of the l ouse will overwhelm bim.
Tbe general opinion seems to be that the
House will listen respectfully to on hour's
speech from Mr. Crittenden, and not attempt
to reply to what be may bave to say. As for
Wood, Vallaodighain and Logan, the House
will have no patience witb them, and, if ncces
sary, will, by tbe previous question, preveot
their fulniinatioDS of treason from tbe Nation

Dear Wiltrbt "After a storm there in
always a calm. ' So it is with us. Inactivity,
as reganls lighting, is now uur Htyle but from
the greut number of troops duily arriving at this
point you may soon expect to hear of a grand
buttle, unless Ihe valiant descendant of Han
iioi.fh will do as tbey did to us at Fulling
Waters, show the "iidils in the heels of their
boots and that at double quick time. The
soldiers are getting tired of lying idle, and think
the life they now lead too monotonous, but I
presume ti en. Scott understands his business,
and when the proper lime arrives, all things
fixed to his liking, this most unnatural strife of
the Kebels will be crushed at one decisive blow.
The force of Gen Johnson, the rebel leader, is now
ub. mt niue miles below us, at liunker Hill, but
bo is pUced in a trap not easily to be released.
11 is pruviftiun ia almost exhausted, and what is
wor-si', lie is completely surrounded, so that if he
does notsiion surrender starvation must be the re
suit. It is the general opinion here, that if those
high in authority wUhed it, Johnson's command
would I forced to give up in a short time, with
out a blow being struck. I will not prophecy,
but let time bring forth the verification of the above
opinion.
On the day after the fight at Falling Waters, as
we wire marching on Martinsburg, several farm
ers who hud been driven fiom their homes, (leav
ing their families behind,) because they loved the
I'nion, and would not join the Confederate army,
returned with us: in one instance it was really
a fiect ing -an old gentleman left us in front of a
very comfortable looking houe ; but scarcely had
he uit our ranks, when an old lady rushed thro
the gate, threw her arms around bis neck, and ex
claimed, MMy God I Husband, have yoy relerned
safe !" the other members of the family standing
in the yard, crying and alternately laughing and
crying it was a happy sigh, but so atl'ectmg that
our soldiers turned their faces aside, so aa not to
disturb the (then) happy family; after marching
a ahort distance, the tee-lings of the soldiers chan
ged, and Jtif, JJavis, with his infernal crew, got
cursed in a manner 6t to be applied to such out
laws as himself and hirelings who have made the
"saored soil of Virginia," the acene of bloodshed
and f a wage.
