Supplies for the ,Army at
. Yorktown.
The; P 1 burgh Subsistence Committee still
continue .sir efforts in behalf of the.sick and
wounded4oldiere. The Pennsylvania sol
diers in —the army of the Potomac, are
now tho recipients of the liberality of out
chigoes, through this Committee, and in view
of- the approaching struggle at. YorktoWn,
,w
era thousands of soldiers from our State
Will bo engaged, it behooves our citizens to
oontribatepromptly and largely, that the sup
plies may be on hand when needed. The bat
tle will come, and it may oocur soon. — Then
let us be up and doing. The following_ is an
extract of a letter received from Dr. McCoy,
at Fortress-Monroe:
" The five boxes of hospital supplies sent by
the Pittsburgh Subsiitence Committee, I re-
Oeived yesterday. They will prove of much.
service to us, as we have now a large number
of Pennsylvania troops in our hospitals—
mostly from the Western counties, Armstrong,
Westmoreland, Mercer ' .1:c. We have had
750 patients this month, at this place, and are
stratnmg every nerve to prepare for a much
greater number ' in anticipation of the battle
at Yorktown . . The medical director of East
ern Virginia directs me to inform you - to - send
hospital supplies at once. Three of our most
faithful-female' attendants are from your city,
and one from- East Liberty, and to them the
soldiers owe much gratitudefor theirkindness
to them in the hospitals."
From the above extraot it will be seen that
there is nodanger of our "overdoing Matters"
in the way_of contributing money and goods
for the unfortunate soldiers. Hundreds now
suffer for want of proper supplies, and should
the battle of Yorktown be fought within a
week, many of our own soldiers may not only
suffer, but die through our neglect. Having
put the largest number of men in the field, let
us not be behind other States in furnishing
them with hospital stores.
The Committee have-also received late ad
vices from St. Louis, where they have two
thousand wounded soldiers from Pittsburgh,
Tenn. They are much in need of supplies
there, and every dollar contributed will be
honestly andjudleiously expended.
—Any contributions left at Weyman I: Son's,
Smithfield street, or at Gee. Albree, Son d:
Co.'s,. Wood streeti will be forwarded at once.
Consumption and its Treatment.
The series of letters published in our
columns by Dr. Robert Hunter, must have
awakened a lively interest upon the impor
tant subject of consumption, and how it
should be treated. The method of medical
inhalation is not new to our readers, al
though the system is not generally adopted
by the profession. Hence there is a great
diversity of opinion as to whether the
'in
sidious malady may be more successfully
treated by means of drugs and medicines ad
miniitered through the stomach, or by direct
application to the organs affected through in
halation. The point at issue can only bo• de
finitely settled through scientific investiga
tion, and by ex periment conducted upon phys
iological p ri nciples.
.The growth of new principles in medical
science is generally slow, and all innovations
upon old systems are regarded with mush sus
picion. It is nevertheless true that•the doc
trine of inhalation, of which Dr. Hunter is the
father as well as the advocate, is rapidly gain
ing ground, from the large degree of success
which has attended kis career as a_precti-
Honer, and also, from the fact that his sys
tem commends itself to the understanding of
mankind. Tf diseases of the throat and lungs
can be reached and removed directly by in
halation' then why should the organs of the
stomach be disturbed and nauseated by drugs?
This question has been ably discussed by
Dr. Hunter, in his admirable letters, and those
suffering from asthma, bronchitis, or con
sumption are invited to test the soundness of
his doctrine by practical experience. He is
now in the city, at the Monongahela House,
where he will remain, until Tuesday next, at
which time his engagements elsewhere will
compel him to leave. Those, therefore '
who
would enjoy a personal interview with him,
should call at once, as after that time he can
only be consulted by letter,
or by the patient
incurring the expense ofs trip to see him.
- We must not be understood as endorsing his
system in what we hare said, but a physician
of such large experience and enlightened
views is certainly worthy the confidence and
patronage of the public.

Dr. Robert Hunter, of New York, on
Chronic Consumption.
lb the Editor. of the Tpuburgh Gazette:
Chronic consumption, or the common form
of consumption, generally begins with a slight
dry cough. It was probably the frequency of
the cough preceding the disease that led the
ancients to believe that cough was the cause
rather than the effect of Consumption. This
cough may continue several months or years
without any other symptom. It is scarcely a
trough, but rather a "heels." Now the cause
of this light cough is the presence of tubercies
in the lungs ; and if the patient were to die
suddenly of any other cllseesee.or from an in
jury, we should find the lungs studded or
filled with fine tubercles: It is common, on
examination after death, jo find the lungs of
persons dying with fevers and inflammations
stuffed with tubercles, and this, too, when in
health the existence of Consumption had not
even been euspidted. Many of those friends,
with whom we are in deny intercourse, and
whom we regard as really healthy, are thus
--carrying about in their limge the elements of
their own destruction.
.1
The form of Consumption begins differently
In different cases. A man„apparen tly in per
fect health, has an attack of catarrh or sore
throat, and when this subsides it leaves the
dry, hacking cough bqlore alluded to. Not
unfrequently the spitting of blood is the first
symptom; and, indeed, it almost invariably
marks the commencement of the disease ; this
may be only a slight streak in the mucous or
it may be considerable, and a bright red color.
In many cases Consumption sets in after
"chills and fever," and these occur agues!
with the regularity of ague. In others we
have a sense of heat in the palms of the
- rands and soles of the feat, or a flush on the
cheek; cold feet and hands are also frequently
observed. Many persons mistake the firer
- and chilliness which ewer inthe early stage of
Consumption for intermittent fever. As the
disease progresses perepiratians occur, gener
ally towards morning, and are often sopro
fuse as to drench theaheeto and even the hod.
The stomach is not mush disturbed in the
early stage of Chronic Consumption. It is by
no means uncommon for the appetite to—con
tinue unusually good until after Diarrhea sets
in, when it - generally becomes capricious and
poor. In females, after fever ewers, the
monthly sickness is always suppressed, and
it is common for.the Cough and Disease of the
Lungs to be ascribed to this irregularity, while
in reality, it is only the result depending
upon the debility of the constitution, induced
by the disease. After the fevers and perspi
ration, have become established, the wasting
of the flesh and strength goes on so rapidly
that the body may be truly said to -consume
away. The joints Boon appear larger than
natural, from the wasting of the fleshy parts,
the chest contracted, the features sharpened,
and the eyes attain a peculiar wildness and
brilliancy.
The matter expectorated changes with the
progress of the disease. In the commence
ment, the cough is dry; but after a time a
watery or slightly frothy secretion follows.
%As the disease approaches the second stage,
this gradually changes to a sticky, jelly-like
or gluey substance, often dark in color, but
more commonly inclining to a greenish, with
now and then streaks of a yellow color.
When tubercles soften, the expectoration.
becomes still more yellow and pus like. The
matter expectorated from a cavity in the
lungs is peculiar. It is of a whitish-yellow
color, with a rugged or wooly surface. The
celebrated Professor Forbes used to describe
this sputa as looking "almost /as little balls of
cotton or wind." At times the matter expelled
is very offensive, but more commonly it is
without the least smell. Sometimes it has a
sweetish at others a sottish taste.
Frequently the patient complains of pain,
and sometimes can place his hand over the
very seat of his disease; but more frequently
there is no pain beyond a sense of oppression
or an occasional stitch in the ride, and It is by
no means uncommon for the patient to point
out as the seat of his disease the least healthy
part of his lungs.
In this form of Consumption, the patient is
always getting better,
and yet is steadily grow
ing worse—that is,
he appears to improve for
a while, and then relapses into a .worse condi
tion than before, each suoceeding attack leav
ing him more feeble than the preceding one.
He spits pea for a time, has night sweats,
loses appetite, flesh and strength, coughs inces
santly, and can scarcely aleep at night. Grad
ually the cough abates, the expectoration be
'comes lass, and nearly disappears, the fever
'and sweats vanish, and he imagines himself
rapidly gettin well. He gains several pouds
in weight, and g
hie physician point to it as n an
evidence of improvement from treatment, or
Cod Liver Oil. But loon all the old.symptoms
return—the bootie fever and night sweats, the
cough and expectoration of
,pus, increased
frequency of the piles, and pulse of the newly
recovered flesh and strength.
Now, you would ask why is this P The
reason is amity understood--Consumption is
caused by . tubercles—these are produced by
' Catarrh, or Sore Throat, or Bronchitis—by
impure air, or dust, or irritation of some kind
in the air tubes of the langs. The irritation
is kept up a long time before tuberres begin
to form; _ but sooner or later, a fresh cold, or
some irritation greater than usual, Canoes
their rapid deposition. Soon the cold dis
appears, er the irritation is withdrawn, and
tubercle, cease to form. Those formed, how
ever, remain, and gradually develop them
selves. After a few months the lungs are
again exposed in some manner to irritation,
when a further deposit ortubereles take place,
and in another part of the lungs.
As all the tubercles are not deposited at the
same time, they do not soften all at the same
period, but in successive crops as they were
- formed. When they have softened down into
matter, and are being expels the patient
has fever and perspiration; his appetite be
comes poor and he loses flesh and strength.
But as soon as the first crop is thrown off,
these symptoms vanish, and be continues to
improve until the second crop is ready for ex
pulsion, -when _he again relapses. Now, at
every softening of tubercles, apart of the l ung '
is broken down into the cavity; hence the
lungs become gradually wasted, each attack
leaving the poor invalid weaker than the one
which—preceded it. During these parodic
improvements, noitrums and villainous corn
pounds.of every description obtain credit for
effecting the change which takes place, while,
in reality, they but interfere with the proper
notion of nature. The poor patient is, by such
means, "cured" from the day he becomes an
invalid to the day - la laid in hie grave.
I am not going to speak of treatment, but
I cannot refrain from making one practical
observation on the injudiciousness of the usual
course recommended by - most physicians. It
is no unusual thing for intelligent men to ad
vise the consemptive to "take good care of
himself," to "exercise in die open air," to "lice
well;"_Ait to "take 'wry little medicine." Non,
what does all this Mean, but to advise that he
shall wait for the tubercles to soften In the
lungs, and thereby destroy him instead of
striving earnestly, determinedly, persevering
ly, to_prevent that change from taking place?
Left to nature alone, death Is the almost ice
ovitable issue. The aim of the physician,
then, should he to cause the absorption of -the
tubereles--in other words, to make the system
take them np and throw them egt by the
bowels, the kidneys, or the skin. It is by ab
sorption that scrofulous glands are removed—
that swelling and timers vanish—that dropeies
disappear; and by making this the chief aim
and object of my treatment, I am able through
the instrumentality of inhalation to effect the
cure of consumption, by naming the abeorp
lion and removal of the 'tubercles from the
lungs, thus preventing ulceration and de
struction.of their substance.
Invalids are very liable to fell Into the error
of supposing that because they have not alt
these symptoms, therefore they cannot have
consumption. Now, it rarely happens that
we find all, or even a majority of the cymp
tome described, in any one case. This is •
malady of inflnitevarietyi and also too fre
quently so silent and unmarked in itipprogress
as to be far advanced before • any • positive
symptom gives us warning of its presence.
It Is like an enemy in ambush: we are often
on the eve of- destruction before becoming
aware that wo are in the, least denser.
My next letter will be on Spitting of Blood
and Hemorrhage from the Lungs.

The rebels are very anxious about oar new
iron vaesal, the "Galena."
Every conceivable means of transportation
hu been eeised by the rebels for sending men
to Yorktown, and they are preparing to make
a desperate stand there. Their lino of retreat
has not been neglected in cue of 'disaster.
The turnpike road to Richmond hu been re
paired, and a new road laid out, where troops
may be ferried across and taken to Platers-
• • -
burgh, at which point, they say, another stand
is to be made. Works are being erected to
command every approach to that city.
The visit of the French Minister to Norfolk,
in &n armed vessel of hit own nation&lity,
created the greatest surprise among the peo
ple. It was rumored that he had come to pro
test against the continuance of the war in the
name of the Emperor.
At Yorktown the weather was warm and
pleasant yesterday. Tho roads are rapidly
drying up.
Men are working day and night at Rich-
mond on four iroti-clad gun boats, which it in
said will be completed in a few days, and will
come down the James river to shell the Ad
vancing columns of the Union army, and do
other great things. .
Notwithstanding the fame of the Merrimac,
it is with difficulty that a crew can be got to
work her,Tts men have been killed on board
by shit from Union vessels. They aro afraid
of the Monitor toe, and do not want to get
into close quarters with her.
In the Republican caucus last night, the de
bate showed a tendency to adopt &bermes
confiscation bill, which depriverof property
.and slaves the leading {vim's, such u army
and navy officers, and persons who have taken
the oath to the Confederacy, and which de
clares all who continue in arms for sixty days
after its passagif Lpfatnous and ineligible to
office, and authorises the President to arm
slaves in rebellious regions,after proclamation
and sixty days notice.
Horace Maynard, who recently returned' .
from Tennessee, declares himself in favor of
a stringent confiscation act. Several other
border State members will support one.
Horace King, Buehanan's Postmaster Gen

LUVIITR CONGRESS-FIRST SESSION
Wienrsolow, April 24, 1862.
House.—Owing to the protracted ill-health
Of Mr. Bailey, of Mass., he was excused from
service on the Committee on Territories.
Mr. Vallandigham, of Ohio, offered a reso
lution requesting the President to transmit to
the Rouse, if not incompatible with the pub
lie interests, copies of such correspondence
between the French and the United States
Governments, as may have been received
within the last two months, relative to the
present troubles in America. Referred to the
Committee on Foreign Affairs.
Mr. Aldrich, of Minn., from the Committee
on Indian Affairs, reported a bill authorising
a treaty to be made with the Indians of Utah,
with the view iif purehuing their lands; a bill
authorizing another with the Navajoes, of
New Mexico, defining their limits, and eztin-
.guishing their titles to lands Outside of the
United States. Referred to the Committee of
the Whole on the state of the Union.
Mr. Fenton, of N: Y., introduced a bill to
settle the amounts orNew York for-advances
made by that State during the war with Great
Britain, and for other purposes. Referred to
the Committee on Claims.
The Boole resumed the consideration of the
confiscation bill from yesterday.
Mr. Lovejoy said that while the govern
ment is engaged in a serious war to put down
the rebellion, it was seen that this unnatural
and paricidal insurrection has sympathisers
and advocates on this floor. Timm who de
fend slavery aro the defenders of the rebel
lion—for slavery and rebellion are synonyms.
They are unchangable terms. The arab fiend
sent forth with treason marked on his brow,
is represented by the groat British poet, as
roaming over the world, exclaiming
"Me miserable, which way shell I rly
Whanear I Ely le hell—myself nm hell.'
- •
It is precisely the same with his proge
ny and first born, namely, the sys-,
tom of American slavery. Wherever
slavery is there is rebellion—it le it
self °hellion, its corner-stone, pillars and
supp rt. He took the position that either
slave or the republic must 'perish. Ifs
woul tell the gentleman from Kentucky, (Mr.
Critte den,) and all other advocates and de
tondo , of the system ' and those who try
themselves hoarse in attempting to throw the
protect on of the Constitution around this de
stroyer 'of the republic, that there is no city
of refuge. Like an infernal assassin, It has
its knife drawn, and is endeavoring to drivoit
to the 1 heart of the republic. .Wo • are
bound to strike the-monster, and gentlemen
need not•ery out the Constitution for its de
tente. llt shall, he said, be slain& the name
of my country and my God. He denied_ that 1
slavery 1 has any guarantee or recognition in
the Constitution. He urged that it was their
right and duty to destroy slavery, because
slavery ts destroying, or will destroy, the lie
public. He was in favor of a restoration of
the lin o
.110
n, with the right to.stand on Ameri
can sof anywhere and - proclaim his senti
ments. He wanted to stand anywhere art
Amer' n soli without the enforcement of des
potism hold his to - hgue. He wanted to
speak in South Carolina, Georgia, Mississippi
and Louisiana, without the . threat of being
lynched or served with a coat of tar and
feathery. --
The gentleman' from. Kentucky, Mr. Crit.
tendon, yesterday, asked, what would the four
millions of /laves do if turned loose? Turned
loose! This term was used as if the elaves
were wild beasts. Now, he had this to say:
At present, he would let them alone, intake
li b
Cl l / 1 1% of themselves, wide they were &bun ,
dantly able to do. - Slav elders' had better
turn their attention to nether point, Tie t
what wiU they do when t 'a y Ouse to live on

Mr. Bombe Conkling expressed himself in
favor of the confiscation bill to amplify the
punishment of treason, punish the ring
leaders, and reimburse the expenses inourred
in the suppression of the rebellion. The sub
ject of confiscation was referred to a Select
Committee of seven.
The House then went into Committee of the
Whole on this bill, making an appropriation
for bounties to the widows and legal heirs of
_volunteers called into service under the law
of July, 1861.
. Mr. Rollins, of Missouri, ,made a speech
against the rebellion. He complimented Lin
coln in his efforts in behalf of the Union. He
considered the insurrection causeless and in
famous. He was opposed to any and all ex
treme measures, and for prosecuting the war
on the principle laid down at the extra ses
sion ; that when the supremacy of the con
stitntion and the laws wore re-established,
the war ought to cease. .
Mr. Vallandighem, of Ohio, said that ina
speech, delivered in this city the other day,
not in this House, certainly, nor in the Sen
ate, for no such speech would have been tol
erated there, the following appeared: "I
accuse them (the Democratic party) of a de
liberate purpose tOassail, through the judicial
tribunal, and through the Senate and House
of Representatives of the United States, and
everywhere else, and to overawe, intimidate
and trample under foot, if they can, the men
whe boldly stand forth in the defence of their
country, now imperiled by this gigantic re
bellion. I have watched it long ; I have seen
it in secret ; I have seen its movement' ever '
since that party go together, with a colleague
of mine in the other House as Chairman of the
Chairman of the Committee on Resolutions—
a man who neverhad any sympathy with this
Republic, but whose every breath is devoted
to its destruction just as far as his• heart dere
permit him to go."
Mr. Vallandigham—Here in my place in
this Houle and as a representative I do de
nounce, and I speak it advisedly, the author
of that speech as a liar, a scoundrel and a
cowards His name is Benjamin F. Wade.
This produced a personal, discussion between
Mr. Blake and Mr: Vallan - digham. The lat
ter calling his declaration false.
Mr, Hutchins offered a resolution charac
terizing Vidlandigham's language as a viola
tion of the rules of the House, and declaring
him deserving of the censure of the Rouse.
Pending which the House adjourned.
SKICATE.-A. communication was received
from the War Department transmitting copies
of the contracts made by the. Department for
the year 1861.
Mr. Grimes, of lowa, presented 420_ peti
tions from beer and malt liquor mean-factor
ere, asking a reduction in the proposed tax on
beer and malt liquors.
--
Mr. Pomeroy, of Kansas, presented similar
petitions.
Mr. Powell,o3l Ky., moved to take up the
resolution offered by him, concerning the ar
rests of citizens of Kentucky, etc. •
Mr. Sumner) of Mass., opposed taking up
the resolution, as inexpedient at this time.
Mr. Powell did not see why the Senator
abould.znake any opposition. It was simply
asking how many citizens of a Free State had
been dragged from their homes without law,
and calling on the tyrants and usurpers to
know where they are and what are their names.
These were free white men. If they had been
negroes ' the Senator from Massachusetts
would h ave made no opposition ; but be ever
is eternally prating about the wrongs of the
negro. But white men had some rights, and
he wanted the Secretary to tall us why and
wherefore these men had been thus unlaw
fully dragged to prison without charge or
crime.
•
Mr. Sumner, of Mass., said the Senator
from Kentucky had made an inflamed speech,
and called a high officer of the government a
tyrant and usurper. It was evident that if
the resolution was taken up the whole ques
tion must he gone into. If the Secretary of
War was a tyrant and usurper there were men
arrested who were traitors.
- .
Mr. Powell, in his seat—Who are they
name them ?
Mr. Sumnee continued, arguing that it was
not but to - go into an inquiry at present.
Mr. Powell said that some of the men who
were arrested wore as loyal as the Senator
from Massachusetts. He defied the Senator
to point out any law by which the Secretary
of State can carry off the citizens of Kentucky
and imprison them in the forts at Masaehu
setts and Now York.
The.bill for the recognition of ;Loyd and
Liberia, 'being the special order of the day,
was taken up..
Mr. Davie, of Ky., moved a substitute, au
thorizing the President to appoint a Consul to
Liberia and a Consul General to Hayti, with
power to negotiate treaties,
Mr. Collamer spoke against the original
confiscation bill and in favor of his substitute.
The (vacation then recurred on Mr. Sher
man's amendment to the original bill, limit
ing confiscation to persons who held certain
ahem; candor the rebel government.
Mr. King moved to amend on as to include
all persons levying war against the United
States,
or giving aid or comfort to the rebels.
Mr. King's amendment was disagreed to.
Mr. Sherman's amendment was adopted—
yeas 27, nays 11.
On motion, Mr. Browning's bill was post
poned till to-morrow, and, on motiouf Mr.
Sumner's bill for the recognition of Llaytiand
Liberia was taken up.
Mr. Davie' substitute was rejected—yeas 8,
nays 30.
Mr. Saulsbury wanted the country to know
bat if this bill passes, within twelro months
•
some negro would come on the floor of the
Senate, as a foreignT minister, and take hie
negro fanilly into the Diploinatrid Gallery.
The bill passed—yeas 32, nays 7.

From Fort Union.
[Correspondence of tale Bitmanart Democrat.]
Pear Union, N. 31., April 13.—C01. Slough,
after the battle at Apache Canon,fell back
and took possession at Bernal prings, 45
miles south of Fort Union. This was doomed
the strategical point, being within supporting
distance ofFort Union, a position to barrass
the enemY,and to form a junction with Canby
when ho Should leave Fort Craig, 300 miles
south. We had been there ono day when Col.
Canby sent from Fort Craig his Assistant Ad
jutant General with peremptory orders to Col.
Slough to fall back with his column to Fort
Union, which was immediately obeyed.
It would seem that we crippled the enemy
in the fight at Apache Canon, more than was
believed at first.
We have reliable information that we killed
over 100. men, including six °inure, and
wounded over 200.
We have now prisoners at Fort Union 21
officers and 82 privates.
The enemy immediately fell book to Santa
Fe, and are, it is believed, concentrating in
their old position at Alburqnerque.
Yesterday an express arrived from Colonel
Canby, stating that he would leave Fort Craig
on the 31st of March. If the enemy is in the
vicinity of Albuquerque, with ordinary trav
eling Col. Canby is in their immediate vicin
ity i and as our column, 180 miles from Alba-
Anorque, will only leave this morning, he will
'be unsupported by this column, and, with 900
regulars, ho will . have' to encounter their
forcer, unless he can slip by and join the-.col
umn which leaves here this morning.
It is understood that Kit Carson, with a
regiment of Now Mexican volunteers, 700
strong, will remain and garrison Fort Craig.
It is rumored that Cole. Steele and Bailor,
of the rebel army, are advancing into New
Mexico with 800 additional', men. Important
events will probably occur before the next
express leaves for the &Mei.
A well authenticated report has just reach
ed here that, the Texan ferias ' 2,000 strong,
are intrenohing themselves at Santa Fe, and
that Cpl. Canby having strengthened his com
mand up to 1,200, is silty miles south of Santa
Fe. This may enable our two columns to act
together, and make us 2,400 strong. If this
Is the ease, we will have one Of the - bloodiest
battles on record.• Tho enemy's artillery
numbers about eighteen pieces, while ours is
twelve pieces.

W•SIIINGTON, April 24.—The Senate, in ex
ecutive session to-day, confirmed the nomina
tion of Martin Metcalf, of Michigan, as Con
sul at Aguas 'Calien tes,Mexico,and of Horatio
King, ex-Postmaster General, as one of the
Commissioners under the act abolishing
slavery in' the District of Columbia. The
Board will at once organize.
The Senate to-day, by a unanimous rote,
ratified Secretary Seward and Lord lions'
treaty, recently negotiated here for the sup
pression of the African slave trade. This is
deemed a most important treaty, which will
probably sweep the last vestige of the pirati
cal traffic from the face of the seas.
The French Minister, M. Honii Mercier,
returned to-day in the frigate Cassandra, from
Richmond. Soon after his arrival he visited
the State Department, and had a long and
doubtless interesting interview with Secretary
Seward.
. The Secretary of War has observed with
some surprise, that commanders of one or two
military , depots, conceiving themselves em
powered to do so, have undertaken to accept
resignations of, and otherwise discharge from
the service of the United States, officers-com
missioned or appointed by the President in
the Volunteer staff of the army—all such dis
charges are irregular, and unless confirmed by
the President, are void. None but the Presi
dent can discharge an officer appointed by
himself, and as he has not delegated this
power to any General, no General must at
tempt-te. exercise it.
By direction of the President, Brigade Sur
geon J. 11. Thompson, of the United States
volunteers, is dismissed from the service asap
alarmist, on the recommendation of his com
.manding General, Maj. Gan. Burnside.
Major Von Stoinhans, Capt. Botticher and
Capt. Comp, of the 68th 111. , Lleut. Lombard;
battalion Adjutant of the 7th Illinois cavalry,
and Assistant Surgeon Williams, of the first
artillery, are, by the direction of the Presi
dent, stricken from the army rolls for being
captured by the enemy while straggling with
out authority beyond the outposts of the army
on March 29th 1862.

NEW YORK, April 24.—Vera Crus advices,
brought by the Spanish steamer Isabel, state
that after an unsatisfactory conference be
tween the allied commanders, the French
General had decided to march his division
against the city of Dlexice ' taking upon him

Spanish plenipotentiaries thofeupon de - cided
to withdraw their troops.
It is stated that the Juarez government had
consented to give every satisfaction to the
allies in the matter of claims, but refused to

capital they would retire from it.
From Pittsburgh Landing. _
PITTSBURGH LODING ' April 24.—A'recon
noitering party, under Gen. A. J. Smith, left
this morning, and attacked the enemy's
picket, one hundred and fifty strong, who left
in great baste, leaving their knapsacks and
everything else. The „party proceeded On
foot to Pea Ridge, where they found three or
four thousand drawn up in line of battle, who
at the first fire of our artillery also decamped,
hating tents, camp equipage, private bag
gage, half written letters, and other things in
dicating a. great surprise. Enough tents were
left to accommodate a division. We captured
12 prisoners, none of whom expressed regret
at being captured. The roads aro improving

cannon taken away, and that there is nothing
to prevent the D. S. fleet from sailing directly
