ment, could Fremont accept it, is well
suited to thit tastes and disposition of
the pathfinder. The only solid repute
tion he ever acquired was by his journey
SNOW the Rook( Mountains; and in that
he showed himself to be a man of most
extraordinary endurance. Besides, he
may in. his new command have fine op
parhufities presented for display and
bravery: After the rebels are driven
from the low lands, they will doubtless

The news that Mortimer (a disputant

of the war between York and Lancaster)
had confounded the beat part of a day
"In elutagiag hardiataat with great Glendower,
so affected Henry the Fourth that it is
said his hair turned white in a single
night. Let Fremont think of this, keep
ing blame steadily upon the fame ac
quired by those stubborn aspirants to
regal dignity, and it will stimulate him
to thoperformance of deeds which will
o far more effective for his Presidential
purposes than would be the issuing of
a dosed emancipation proclamations.—
The Blain and the rest of those who have
been damaging Fremont, may b mista
ken in the results of this "Mountain De.
partment." It is evidently intended to
quicilY get rid of a troublesome dada
mer, but he and "Jesse" are not the sort
to be peeked away upon barren moun
tains and forgotten while there is the
least far of reaching the White Howie.

engage that chap who used to do up the
telegraphic accounts of the Western
DePirtment while he commanded, and
if that dotattfirsinke him our next Pm- -
ident, then there is no efficacy in hum
bug. This is a far better dodge than
was his bleeding Kansas in '56; and al-
Waugh the TRIBUNZ and the Pittsburgh
Genera% may still insist upon the confis
cation gag being the chief plank in the
next platform, we tell them that old
AbW - 1 mesaagelisi knocked the brains
out of that- Being in command of this
Mountain Department, with a single
special correspondent of the New York

Walter Raleigh gammoned Queen Eliza

Letter from Washington.
Wasatturrox, March 7, 1862.
The dash made Over the Potomac and
along the Shenandoah by the division
under General Banks about the advent
l of the present month accomplished the
o icupanoy of Charlestown and Martins
burg, and a reconnoissnoe of an instruc
tive character reach ing within a few miles
of Winchester, where the enemy were
ascertained to be in large numbers, well
entrenched, and supplied largely with
field and other heavy artillery.
The General in-Chief and his staff, af
ter dispatching ample:reinforcements, to
avoid any retrogade movement, mounted
the steam horse and hastened to give
the advance his personal supervision.—
He could not control the elements—the
inimitable storm—clouds poured down
their rains, and the roads in a single
night were rendered impassable—enough
to break the heart of any General less a
soldier and philosopher than McClellan.
General Banks has the confidence of his
officers and men,and will not fail to make
sure and steady progress. With such
Bregadiers as Abercrombie and such Col
onels as Geary, whatever was intended
ten days ago will not fail to be acoom
plated. Armies are not created in a
day, and must not, to avoid popular
clamor, be sacrificed by overtaxing their
endurance.
On Saturday last Gen. McClellan had
returned to the Capitol to look over the
vast field of operations, countermand
old and issue new orders, and make such
disposition of the materials at his dispo
sal, as to time and place, that will not
fail to command the admiration, and
justify the faith of an anxious people.
The funeral -cortege of the gallant and
lamented Lander, under the command of
thq veteran General Casey, was Oust trib•
ute to the memory of a soldier who has
won the heart. of the rank and file, and
now challenges the admiration of his
brother officers for his unprecedented
marches in the face of the enemy.

suffering ander the severe usage of the ex
pedition which resulted in his master's
death, bringing up the rear. His, like
that of the Immortal Lyon, is an imperish
able
glory. History will award him the
tribute of one of its most illuminated pages,
and patriot tears will keep the grass green
around his cenotaph.
On Thursday evening, our represents
tive, J. E. Moorhead, was (no doubt
agreeably) surprised by a serenade visit
-from the excellent brass band of the Bth
Regular Cavalry, Col. Emory, mounted,
and accompanied by Captain Hay and oth
er officers
The horses were soon "picketed" and
their riders introduced to a hospitable im,
promptu entertainment, and just such a
whole.souled complimentary speech as
gave relish to the good things spread be
fore them. None were reported on "sick
call' next morning, which gave endorse
ment to the General's judgment : at lean
such was the impression made by their gay
appearance the next day at the review of
the Brigade, numbering same 8,000, and
the inspiring notes of their bugles as they
lingered before the quarters of the big
hearted and gallant Emory. The Com.
mender of the - 9th Cavalry takes great
pride in the rapidly increasing efficiency
of his corps and tains his thoughts toward
Pittsburgh, from when people his rag'.
tnent was recruited, and the warmest hoe.
pitalines sho sered in a moment of bit.
'lee but, thank God, successful trial, with
the fondness and gratitude of one "to the
manor born." He is now ready for the
field and anxiously awaits an oppostunity,
not to win the Apure of a Brigadier, but
to wipe out any lingering record in the
minds of his most vindictive enemies, that
could cast a shadow on his loyalty.

noissance of about fifty men le - longing to

of Pittsburghers and under the direction
of one who has fighting Revolutionary

The "Regular Regiments" have been
pouring into the capital rapidly within the
last few days Yesterday the 12th and
17th and the 11th and 14th arrived. The
two latter, or rather the 14th, under the
command of Capt. O'Connell, made a fine
appearance marching up the Avenue to
"Meridian Hill;" the martial mimic and
band &scourging the exquisite National
airs of "Yankee El..icdle' and "Dixie"—a
mingling that all our regimental bands
should tmttate,—thus asserting oar right
to the products of Northern brains and ac
complishing "a matrimonial alliance" be
tween those two inspiring tunes, that no
. 4 man must put asunder," not even a rebel
Southeron.
The Union officer who would interdict
the playing of "Dixie" gives no evidence
of his loyalty, and has but contracted
views of the stern loyalty of others.
The 14th Regiment has suffered greatly
on the shores of the Chesapeake, having
left over 180 men in Hospital. Two com
panies remain in charge of "Camp Stone,"
which, together with the 800 men at the
recruiting stations in Pennsylvania and
INew York, will make their muster roll

An "Egyptian" Sheriff Poison
by the Bes:with
The Jonesboro' Gastritis states that L. D.
Craig, Sheriff of Johnson county, was poi
soned by a sece , h at Fort Donelson. Like
many others, Sheriff Craig went up to the
fort after the battle to assist in relieving
the wounded. Arriving there. be fell into
conversation with some of the secession
prisoners, In the course of which one of
them complimented him on his devotion
to the Union and invited him to take a
drink, at the same time drawing a flask
from his pocket. Mr. Craig, not suspect.
ing. took a swallow, but immediately re.
marked that the liquor was poisoned, and
ha was a dead man. The effects of poison
were soon manifest, and Mr. C. died in
about two hours. His body was taken back
to Johnson county for burial. The Ga•
smite does not learn the fate of the prisoner.
In addition to this we ini+y add that our
forces found a lot of poisoned bullets, left
behind the rebels at Nashville.
The Fight between the Monitor
and Merrimac
From eye witnesses of the naval ao
tion off Newport News, and from offi
cers who arrived too late to see the first
day's fighting, but who obtained full
particulars of it from eye-witnesses, and
were close spectators of the second day's
battle the following narrative is gathered:
At B.} o'clock on Sunday morning the
Merrimac, accompanied by the James
town and Yorktown, and steam-tugs,
came in sight, heading for the Minneso
ta. A shot from the Monitor, which
had steamed up to meet the Merrimac,
surprised her, and she seemed to start
back, as if finding an unwelcome as
sailant.
From tai till ten minutes past 12 the
battle raged—the Pig's Point and Sew
all's Point batteriee joining the rebel
fleet in the a•-sault upon the Monitor
and the Minnesota, which was assisted
by the gunboat Whitehall, once a ferry
boat, and one or two other vessels.
The interest of the contest centered
in the struggle between the two iron
clad vessels, as the rebel wooden boats
kept their distance, and only manifest
ed themselves by an occasional shell,
and the ,Minnesota's broadsides glanced
oil' harmlessly from the Merrimac's
mailed planks.
The Monitor for nearly four hours
steamed round and round the Merrimac
sometimes at &distance of half a mile,
sometimes tonching her, constantly
hammering her with immense shot from
her twotguns. The effort was to hit her
stern, -which was believed to be the heel,
!of the Achilles; but the Merrimac,
I aware of this, kept turning, also trying
to strike the Monitor with her beak.
Once only the Monitor got into posi
tion behind the Merriman, but unfortu
nately, the current didn't stop rotating
at the right moment, and the shot
missed their work. In the course of th
tight the Monitor discharged from
eighty to ninety shots, and the Merri.
mac, flying, as some officers think, a
black flag, some two hundred. At
length the Merrimac retired with her
consort.
An English naval officer who saw the
tight, says that no vessel in the British
Navy could withstand the Monitor.
The following description of the ter
rible armament of the Monitor is from
the SCIINT Inc Aiorauceat, and furnishes
1 a sufficient reason for the Merrimac
drawing off in a sinking condition after
her encounter with the former:
' The Ericsson iron plated floating
battery, at Green Point, has been armed
with two 11 inch columb'ads, which have
been furnished with four hundred
wrought-iron shot, each ball costing
forty-seven dollars, and weighing 284
pounds. These balls were made by
forging square blocks of iron at the
Novelty Works, and then turning them
at the lothe. The cost of the four hun
dred amounts to $lB,OOO, and their to
tal weight is 74,000 pounds. Cast-iron
shot are liable to break in pieces when
fired against thick iron plates. These
wrought-iron shot are for smashing
through the sides of such secession float
ing batteries as the Merrimac at Nor.
folk, and Hollins Turtle at New •Or

The Rebels Looking Abroad for
Aid. -
[Fr am the Richmond Dispatch, March 6.]
It is useless f.:r the South to look to
any nation but itself for redemptionfrom
the Lincoln despotism. Heretofore there
has been good reason to believe that for
eign intervention in our behalf would
take place, but strongly as the sympa
thies of the English and French people
are with us, their short sighted govern.
ments give us now no grounds for be.
lieving that we shall have their cope.
ration. We must depend upon ourselves
and upon the aid of that Providence
which has already been so signally man
ifested in our behalf, and a surer de•
fender we, need not have, Oar people
mu* now, with the aid of OlOd, work out
their own salvation. It is better for us
now, it will be better for us in the end,
that we are under obligations to no one
but ourselves. ,If we believe the spirtt
of men who deserve to be free, no power
on earth can subjugate the South. We
think we do not overrate the character
of the Southern people when we teel
sure that they are equal to the duty of
achieving their own independence thus
achieved is the only independence
worth:y . o the name.
