of deviating from the path of nature and indulging' in a

Marriage,
reflect that a sound mind and body are thej most neces
sary requisites to promote connubial happiness. Indeed,
without these, the journey through Pro becomes a weary
pilgrimage ; the prospect hourly darkens to the view ;
the mind becomes shadowed with despair and filled with
the melanoholly reit often . that the happinesi of another
becomes blighted with our own.
Disease of Imprudence. .
When the miQguidedand imprudent votary of pleasure
finds that he has imbibes the seeds of this painful dis
ease, it too often hapens that an ill-timed sense of shame
or dread of discovery, deters him from applying to those
who, from e Mention and respectability,Aan alone be
friend him, delaying till the constitutional symptoms on
this hors d diseasamake their appearance, such as ul
cerated sore throat, diseased nose, nocturnal 'pains in
the headtruid limbs, dimness of deafness, nodes On
the shin bones and arms, blotches on the had, face and
extremities, progressing with frightful rapidity, till at
last the palate ot the mouth or the bones of the nose fall
in, and the victim of this awful disease become a horrid
object of commiseration, till death puts a period to his
dreadful sufferings, by sending him to t , that Vrtilscov
oared Country from whence no traveler returns."
It is a etelanchay fact that thousand" fill victims to
this terrible disease, owing to the unsitilfulinoss of igno

The Retreat from &limb-01'g
THE BATTLE AT WINCHESTER
GALLANTRY OF COLONEL JOSEPH F. KNIPE
PENNSYLVANIA - VALOR' VINDICATED
The account published in relation to the - re'
treat from Strasburg, by the column under com:
mend of Gen,, Banks, and of the battle at
Winchester, all agree in according to the 46th
Pennsylvania' regiment,' Col. Joieph Knipe, the
warmest and the fullest praise. A correspon
dent of the Philadelphia Inquirer gives a very
full accounkof the stirring events of ,that
treat, from which we make such extracts as
will be of interest to ord. Deeded.'
The actionittof this regiment are: spoken of
in the highest terms. Information having been
received of the attack at Front Royal,. an order
,was given to the regiMent; at three o'clock on.
Saturday morning, to march imniediately for
On the banks of a small ..stream . trilled: m
Brook, about WE miles southwest of Straebtn.
The order' was irarr iediately obikied. Teats were
struck, and without breakfast the men started dri
their march. The Forty-sixth, being the right
of Acting Brigadier-General Donnelly 's brigade,
moved in advance, followed by the Twenty
eightb,Niew.York, Lieutenant:Colonel Brown,
(Colonel Donnelly acting as brigadier,) and the
Fifth Connecticut, Lieut. Col. Chapman. (The
colonel of this regiment, Col. Ferrey, is acting
as brigadier-general of Gen. Shields' command.)
The brigade . and regimental trains; in number
about one hundred and -fifty wagons, had been
sent on immediately.in advance.
About seven o'clock the brigade arrived at
Strasburg,, where it was joined by Brigadier-
General Gordon's brigade, Donnelly's brigade
taking the advance. An' hour afterwards the
entire force, under command of Major-General
Banks, took up the line of march for Winches
ter. The cavalry, consisting of the First Mich
igan and parts of the Fifth New York and
First Vermont, under General catch, 'and
Hampton's Pennsylvania Battery, in'the mean
time remained at a point about four miles south
of Strasburg, for the purpose of protecting the
removal of a large quantity of commissary's
stores. Finding it impossible to remove ail,
toe soldiers were supplied, and the balance
were prudently set fire to and destroyed. When
the command reached Middletown, six, miles
this side of Strasburg, the rebel cavalry came
out from the woods on the side of the road arid
attacked the train in front. A stampede took
place among the teamsters, and while many
wagons were upset in turning short, others
were set fire to and burned. Among the
wagons were several belonging to sutlers and
refugees.
The Forty-aixth immediately, by companies,
placed their knapsacks,' blankets, and every
thing that would interfere with their move
ments,upon the roadside, loaded at will, add
forwared at double quick up the turnpike as
far as Newtown, about four miles distant, driv
ing the rebel cavalry ahead until they reached
the village, where the rebels took to the woods
to the right. One section of a New York bat
tery, under Lieutenant Woodbury, followed,
andtaking position, opened fire, driving them
back. At the same time two companies of the .
Forty-sixth, A and K, acting as skirmishers;
tired,.killing two and wounding one, which
they left on the field. The Forty-sixth and the
battery then returned to the pike and moved
on in front'of the train; which was , protected
In the rear by the rest of the command. No
rebel interference was experienced after that,
and the command reached Winchester about 9
o'clock v. st. Donnelly's brigade bivouacked
that night, without food or blankets, on the
Front Royal road, about a mile south of the
town, Gordon's brigade resting on the left of
the Strasburg road. On Sunday morning be
fore daybreak, ravine was sounded, and the
troops were called to arms. During the night
there had been constant and heavy firing be
tween thelkkets.
During the night, anticipating an attack early
in the morning, au order was given by General
Banks that Gordon's brigade should form the
right wing of thedefence and Donnelly's the
lett. About half past four fire was opened up
on the left by the rebel batteries, about two
miles distant, and almost immediately after
wards an attcck was also made on the right.
Our batteries then returned the fire and a gen
eral engagement ensued. A North Carolina
regiment, several of the officers of which were
in citizens' dress—one captain having on a
black silk hat, and who was subsequently shot
in the head—made an attack on the Forty
sixth, taking them by surprise ; but most gal
iantly was the &wont met, for scarcely bad
they made their appearance above the hill-top
and fired their murderous vollay, before the
rifled Mimes of the Forty-sixth; had played
havoc witlitheir ranks: • Bayonets • were then
fixed, and a charge heft made; the traitors
were driven from behind a atone wall, where
they hid taken shelter. Severe fighting con
lino& for half an' hour—the firing on both sides
being desperate and the low severe. Severe
firing was also cootinned by the other two regi
ments of the two brigades.
Towards seven O'clock, a heavy mist caused
the firing to oe suspended on both sides.
During this time the forty-sixth changed
their pickets. to raising ground, and when the
„mid :disappeared, which was in about twenty
minutes, firing again ' began. 'A 'regiment of
Babel Infiniti* now' appeared in a hollow near;
but failed to advance , against-.the skirmishers.
Alxont eight o'clock a combined ; attack of in
fantry and artillery was made • by the ;Rebels

The batteries of the Rebels are said to have
been well Manned, and Shot 'and* shell were

notwithstanding the unfortu

constant presence. About halt-past eight
o'clock an order to retreat Was given, , which
was made in excellent order under a heavy fire
of shot dud shell frcini theiebelhatterY On the
hill, many of the deadly`missiles going through
and riddling the houses, of, their, own friends.
The Forty-sixth, in solid column and in perfect
order,, marched through the streets

of Winchester; einceno wither had the battle
commenced than the wrndowsi bristled with

Wherever a Union soldler,was seen, there a

usedilth effect the deadly weapons. Accurate
'aim was-not only taken byethese female fiends;
but large hand grenades aswo thrown by them
from windows, which, as, they burst, proved
deatiiictive to the lites artillimbs of our gallant
'.men. -The - shots were, of course, returned, and
heads here and: there were seen to suddenly die

When the Forty-sixth arrived at a pi:Ant just
Milo 'tide of the 'depot, they received a volley
Iron" a.regiment of.Lonitiatia -Tigers, stationed
inane two hundred. yards distant, but. did not
return the fire, from prudential motives. The

The rebels themselves, who were following
about two miles behind, were surprised and
alarmed and came to a sudden halt. The rein
forcements, however, did not come, and the
retreat was recommenced, the rebels following
and ebelling until within three miles of Mar
tinsburg. About three o'clock on Sunday af
ternoon the command reached" Martinsburg,
and pawing immediately through, marched up
the pike to the Potomac, opposite Williameport.
The troops bivouacked on the Virginia shore
that night, and on Monday crossed over in a
ferry boat and two boats formerly used for a
pontoon bridge. s
The Forty-sixth is now, encamped one mile
from Williamsport, on the St. James College
road. The men are naturally much fatigued,
but are =dons and determined to return at an
early day to Winchester and Strasburg.
Tne events of Saturday and Sunday will long
be remembered by General Banks' command.
Not only did they march sixty-five miles du
ring the two days, without' anything to eat,
save what could be picked up by the"roadside,
but they fought one severe battle and two en
gagementa.
To specify individual 'acts of gallantry and
bravery would be invidious, where all fought
so well. The field officers of theTorty-sixth
were" ever in the thickest of the fray and won
everlasting praise. Col. Knipe received a slight
flesliVound in the shoulder,and his right pistol
holster was the - recipient of a ball which,
glancing, passed immediately under the leg of
the gallant rider. • Lieut. Col: Selfridge made
a narrow escape, a shell hurting in front of hie
horse, causing the animal to Tall,slightly bruis

XXXVIEth Congress-First Session;
WASHINGTON May 30
SENATE.
Mr. Tauxsurs t (111.,) did not see any necessity
for extra haste in passing the tax bill. This
session of Congress was not bound to adjourn
at any particular time, and he did not think
Congress ought to adjourn in the present con
dition of things, and leave the post of duty.
He was opposed to' any attempt to push the bill
through by night sessions.
Mr. Dams, (Conn.,) spoke in laver of early
action on the tax bill.
Mr. &axon moved to amend the tax on 1
whisky so as to make it twenty-five cents
until July; and after that thirty-five cents per
gallon.
Mr. SHI3IIfAN opposed 'this amendment as
being too high a tax on one article 'and ope
tating injuriously on the agricultural interests.
Mr. HARM (New York) said that he would
assume that thaexpenditure would go on and
the debt become one thousand million, this
was certainly enough to satisfy any body—he
thought this bill was calculated to raise mote
than was actually needed to pay the current
expenses of the , Government, besides an inter
est on the debt, and‘create an ample sinking
fund—he was willing to vote every dollar that
was necessary, but no more—he would not add
to the already heavy load on the people.
The discussion was continued by Messrs.
Cnaserate. and McDorrokt, (Cal.) The latter
speaking at length upon the merits of the bill,
1 contending for tde superiority of the substitute
offered by him, which raised sufficient revenue
and taxed only those things which were legally
subject to taxation, while the bill from the
House taxed everything which should be en
couraged,•and by the great mass Machinery and
detail renders itself impracticable.
