HARRISBURG, PA., THURSDAY AFTERNOON, APRIL 3, 1862. Pennsylvania Legislature. The Senate re-assembled at three P. 11., Mr. HALL, Speaker, in the Chair A number of private bills were passed and other unimportant business transacted—none relating to this county. Agreeably to order, The House proceeded to the consideration of Senate bill No. 538; (reported affirmatively by the House committee on the subject,) entitled "An Act to re organize the Congressional dis tricts of Pennsylvania, in accordance with" the act of Congress, approved March 4, 1862. The billwas read a second time. After some discussion, Mr. DUFFIELD moved to postpone the order for the purpose of proceeding with the consid eration of Mr. CmsNA's resolution for evening sessions, offered this morning. At the request of Kr. CESSNA, Mr. DUFFIELD so modified his motion as to admit of reports from committees and bills in place, after the resolution should have been dis posed of. The motion, thus modified, was agreed to. arriatiooti AND BVSNING missions. The resolution of Mr. Came was then read, as follows : Resolved, That this House will hold an even ing session this evening and another on the evening of Friday next, each of said sessions - to commence at half-past seven o'clock and close at ten o'clock ; and said sessions shall be de voted—let, to the completion of the private calendar of Tuesday, April Ist-2nd, to the consideration of private bills on call, under rule 67 ; and that the House will hold a session on Friday next, commencing at three o'clock and ending at six o'clock p. se., and that said ses sion shall be devoted to the consideration of public bills, under the resolution of this House providing for afternoon sessions. The question was on the amendment of Mr. Wunems, as follows : After the words "this evening," in the sec ond line, insert the words "for the purpose of considering the bill for the repeal of the act passed at the last session, entitled 'An Act to change the name of the Sunbury, and Erie rail road company, and to facilitate the completion of the same." The amendment of Mr. Wimaimis was dis agreed to—yeas 27, nays 65. The question then recurred on the original resolutusas. Mr. BIGHAM moved to amend by striking out, after the word "said sessions to commence at 71 o'clock," and inserting the words, "and close at ten o'clock." to. . The resolution as amended was then agreed to. Numerous bills were read in place—but none of general importance. The Houk' resumed the consideration of the apportionment bill. Mr. CESSNA moved to amend by the sub stitution of his own bill,preserited as a majority report a few days ago. - • The substitution was declared out of order according to the forty-second rule of the House. Mr. CESSNA then presented another amend ment. The SPEAKER declared the second amend ment out of order, on the ground that it was the same in subsistence as the former, the phraseology only being changed. Mr. CESSNA then submitted a third amend ment, which was also declared out of order, on the same ground. Mr. ARMSTRONG moved to postpone the consideration of the question for the present, that Mr. Com. might have an opportunity to withdraw his bill from the possession of the House. The motion of Mr. ARMSTRONG was agreed to; and the House granted Mr. Caws leave to withdraw his bill. The consideration of the order was then re sumed. Mr. CESSNA again offered his bill as a sub stitute for the one before the House; which amendment was then in order. Mr. CESSNA then moved the indefinite post ponement of the consideration of the bill before the House, with the amendment thereto pend ing, which opened the merits of the whole sub ject for discussion. After a protracted debate, and pending the question, the House adjourned until 7i o'clock this evening. The Senate re-assembled at half past seven o'clock r. at., the Speaker in the Chair.

PRIVATE CALLEFDAB NORTH PRIUDRLDIDA PLANK ROAD FROM HATTERAS INLET New Yoet, April 2 BY TELEGRAPH. From our Morning Edition. Additional Southern News. A Panio Among the Charlestonians. Adjourned REVOLT OF TWO NORTH CAROLINA REGI MENTS IN CHARLESTON. The Rebel steamer Merrimac. The following additional news has been re ceived since our evening edition of yesterday The city of Saiarinah was understood to be very strongly fortified in all its approaches.— The force there was variously estimated by refugees at from twenty to fifty thousand, pro bably twenty thousand is more correct. The greatest despondency existed among the people and troops at Charleston. The fall of Newbern created the greatest con sternation. The fire-eaters ridiculed the North Carolina troops, charging them with cowardice. The shopkeepers and bakers in Charleston also immediately refused to receive North Caro lina money. There being two North Carolina regiments encamped in the city at the time, a revolt was the consequence, and the shops were broken open and the troops helped themselves. Teese regiments had refused to serve any longer, and were allowed to return home. The advices from Florida are very encourag ing. Many of the inhabitants were renewing their allegiance. No direct information of the abandonment of Pensacola has been received, but it was gener ally believed that our troops had crossed over from Santa Rosa and occupied the place. The latest intelligence received from Norfolk by the underground railroad leaves no doubt that the Merrimac is thoroughly repaired and in commission ready for another expedition against the wooden walls of the Federal navy, and the river transports lying in the Rods. The delay in her coming out is believed to be caused by her waiting for ammunition for the heavy guns that have lien placed on board of her, and also for some infernal machines which are being constructed by Bombastes Maury., Theapamers Yorktown and Jamestown are also being strengthened and more thoroughly clad with iron, to accompany the Merrimac. There is also a rumor that two more steam ers are. being clad with iron at Rilhmond, to join the expedition. As tei•the loss of life on the Merrimac, we have now what is claimed to be positive infor mation, that it was pretty heavy. One of the recently arrived contrabands states that he was a nurse, in the general hospital, and that up to the time of his departure he had helped to shroud thirty-two of the crew of the Merrimac and that both Capt. Buchanan and Lieutenant Minor are dead. There was still a number of the wounded surviving. They, the contrabands, also state that the last two shots ot the Monitor were represented to be the only ones that seri ously injured the Merrimac. These were thrown under her shield at the moment she attempted to run the Monitor down. From Fortress Monroe. REBEL RECOMOBANCE ON JAMES RIVER. THE MERRIMAC HOMY EXPECTED. VIRGINIA MALEY BELOW PIE. Governor Wise Proclaimed a Cow- FLOYD AND WISE POT ON EQUAL WISE RETIRES TO HIS FARM A Mall tug came down the James river yes terday afternoon, and at long range threw some shell into Newport News camp. No damage was done. The distance being so great, it was thought to be useless with our guns to make any reply. The rumor is current here that Yorktown has been abandoned by the enemy, but it is not be lieved by the highest authorities. Notwithstanding the great delay in the ap pearance of the Merrimac, she is hourly ex pected, and our naval and military commanders are prepared to receive her at any moment or the military station at Norfolk. The Gulf States have been very severe on Virginia chivalry since the defeat at Roanoke. Even the Richmond Blues, the very pink of chivalry, have fallen in public estimation. All award bravery to O. Jennings Wise ; but his father has so fallen in public estimation. that he is proclaimed on the streets of Norfolk a coward and a poltroon. In his escape from Negg'e Head he rode thirty miles on horseback, not withstanding he had previously reported him self too ill to remain on Roanoke /eland at the head of his command. Adjourned Wise and Floyd now rank together as the fleet footed, My informant says Wise would be hooted if he were to appear on the streets of Norfolk or Richmond. He has retired to his farm in Princess Anne county. FROM GENERAL BURNSIDE. MS DIVISION STRONGLY REINFORCED. Nsw Your, April 2. The steamers Erricson, Fulton and Star of the South, had lauded strong" reinforcements 'or Gen. Burnside. The Eighth Connecticut and Ninth Rhode Island regiments were within four miles of Beaufort. The town of Goldsborongh had been strongly reinforced. It is reported that Fort Macon will soon be stormed. FORTRZE MONROZ, April 2 I=l and and Poltroon. FOOTING FORTIIIIII9 MOPBOII, April 1 ....,41....... FROM WASHINGTON. TIE MISSOURI MILITARY DEPARTMENT. Report of the Commissioners. Further Particulars of the Advance of General Banks. The Rebels Driven Beyond Edinburgh. COLONEL ASHBY RECEIVED A SHOT THROUGH WS CAP WASHINGTON, April 2. The commissioners to examine into the af fairs of the Western or Missouri department, have made a voluminous report, in which they state they examined one thousand two hundred witnesses, and had claims presented them amouutiug to eight millions donate. They re mark they have devoted the principal part of their report to an exposure of the abuses which characterize the- late administration of that department, and testify to the integrity which generally bas been displayed by merchants, mechanics and manufacturers, when permitted to deal directly with the gov ernment. Wide-spread as has been the demor alization in official circles, and among their de pendants and favorites, and startling as are the frauds which have been attempted and con summated, a large majority of the claimants have presented themselves before the commis sion unimpeached by imputations either on their loyalty or honor. The following despatches were received here to-day, dated WOODSTOCK, Va., April 2 " We have driven the enemy from Strasburg to Woodstock, a distance of twelve miles, and then to Edinburg, seven miles beyond. He contested the march most of the way, and at a strong position, which he contemplated making a stand at Edinburgh, quite a sharp contest occurred. He burned the midges in his eight, except that at a narrow passage, which we were enabled to reach in time to ex tingush the flames, we lost but one man, and had but one wounded. The enemy suffsred more, but I cannot state the extent. Colonel Ashby received a shot through his cap, which he exhibited with some sati.faction to the people of Woodstock. Others suffered more severely. The men behaved admirably. During an advance yesterday, our rearguard and skirmishers were frequently fired upon by the rear guard of Jackson's retreating force. We shelled them through town, and as often of they appeared in range. After passing the bridge over Stony Creek, they set fire to it, but our troops arrived in time to save and, also, another pile bridge and the railroad bridge, all in two miles this aide of Edinburgh. Our artillerists endeavored to pievent the destruction by pouring into the enemy a shower of shells. The Richmond Enquirer of the 27th ult., places our loss at the Wiuchester battle at twelve to fifteen hundred, theirs three hundred and Arty to four hundred. Among their casu alties were Col. L. S. Moore, of Winchester,sed S. H Louner, of the General assembiy, killed, and Col Echols of the 27th Va., wounded. The second Virginia regiment lost one hundred men.. Tie Rebels Removing their Tobacco Crop Into the Interior. WAsnairazoir, April 2.—lntelligence has been received here from Richmond via Baltimore that the rebels are r moving their tobacco to the interior, toward Danville and Farmville, and beyond Peteraburg. It is added that pri vate citizens have no control over the cotton and tobacco, the military having assumed the charge of it. XXXVIIth Congrem—First Session. SENATE WABEfINGTON, April 2 Mr. LATHAM, (Cal.,) said that on the 26th ult. he offered a resolution calling for certain cor respondence between the Secretary of Stateand ex-President Pierce. He said the correepond ence was now in the Senate with the exception of one letter—he read the letter—he said he had been repeatedly urged to have a committee to investigate this question of the Knights of the Golden Circle, as it was said by many to be the mere fiction of the brain and many good citizens Were unjustly aspersed, but he had no time to take horn the duties to his own coustit vents. Mr. TENBYOB., (N. J.,) offered a resolution that the Secretary of War be requested to inform the Senate what drafts bad been made by the War Department and receipted by Floyd, what for, and what amount is now outstanding. Adop ted. The Senate passed a resolution that the United States ought to co-operate with the States in the aid of emancipation, by a vote of thirty-two against ten, and then proceeded to the consideration of the bill abolishing sla very in the District of Columbia, Mr. Davis speaking againsc it. O:9III.IDirea3DIfiaOI4IEVIAVDO Mr. Arm, (N. Y.,) introduced a bill which was referred to the Committee of Ways and Means, authorizing the sale of annuities for life and fixing the value thereof. The House took up the Senate resolution that whenever military operations required the pre sence of two or more cif:Leers of tht same grade in the same field or depot tment, the President may make such an appointment without regard to seniority of rank. Mr. Wssnstras said that the resolution might be right but if wrong it ought not to be pass ed. He trusted that its consideration would be postponed till to-morrow. The resolution involved very serious conse quences. Mr. WYCLUTE, (gy.,) did not see what prac tical good could arise from the passage of Ellen a resolution, he at present could think of only two Generals upon whom it could operate.— The conferring of such power on the President might lead to the disturbance of the relations now existing in the army, they were assuming too much in the way of legislation in regard to that brance of the public service. To super cede a General officer might be equivalent to forcing him to reign. Mr. OLIN, (N. Y.,) explained the resolution ; be said suppose there were three brigadier or major Generals, three commissions dated on successive days, the President may assign either of them to the command without regard to the date of their commissions or seniority, it was fttaz tinting ram Baying procured Steam Power Presses, we are prepay ed to execute JOB add B JOB PRINTING of every dowdy ;ou, cheaper than It can be done at any other estabhah tuent la the COUUtry.

Mr. STEVENS (Pa.) did not believe that this resolution was necessary. He moved to lay it on the table. Disagreed to. The resolution was then passed—yeas 81, nays 40. On motion of Mr. Da.wa, (bass.,) of the go vesnment contract committee, it was ordered, that Aaron Higgins, of Boston, be brought be lore the bar of the House on the charge of con tempt, for neglecting or refusing to appear in accordance with the subpoena of the Speaker, otfore a sub-committee of the same. The House then went into committee of the whole on the ststeof the Union on the Tax bill (Hr. Colfax, (led.,) in the Chair ) An amendment was offered, bat rejected, to tax bridge and canal companies three per centum of their dividends. Mr. c.TEVXNS requested the committee to pare over sections concerning the inc .me duty, in order to allow further time to agree upon the proper words to be used, their being some diffi culties exisiing in this respect. Stamp duties were next considered. Among the amend menis was the exemption of promissory notes or inland bills of exchange from taxation. Medicines, preparations, compositions, per fumery and cosmetics are exempted from stamps and duties when intended for exportation, of which proper security must be given. The second clause of schedule B was amended so as to read "promissory notes, bank checks, drafts and orders for the payment of any sum drawn upoa any bank, trust company, or any person or persons, companies or corporations, at sight or on demand, except bank checks, drafts or orders under $5O shall be charged two cents duty." Tue clause in regard to expresses was sup planted by the following : "For any receipt issued by any express com pany or carrier for a single box, bale, pack'ge or bundle, two cents, and fur any number more • than one, five Cents." The charge for entry of goods, wares or merchaudizs at any custom house, either for consumption or ware housing, was amended so as to read "where the value does not exceed $lOO, and 25 cents when above $lOO, and not more than $200,50 cents, above $6OO one dollar.
