News on shore--Slaughter immense--Enemy in full retreat. 10 P. M. McClellan has just returned with Gen. Marcy. Mae says They took one gun from us yesterday; but to-day we have taken many of their guns and colors. Yes, said Marcy, we whipped them like the devil to-day. 12 M.

From what I can gather from the conversation of McClellan. we may expect to see the major part of the army at Harrison's Landing to-morrow. Gen. McClellan, in his report, says: I left Haxall's for Malvern soon after day-break.

Garret Davis, of Ky., Carlile, of Va., Saulsbury, of Del., and supported by Messrs. Wilson, of Mass., Howard, of Michigan, Sherman, of Ohio, McDougall, of Cal., and Anthony, of R. I., and passed: Marcy 10. Yeas 29; Nays 9--a party vote, save that Mr. McDougall, of Cal., voted Yea. The bill thus enacted was approved by the President, March 13th, 1862. Gen. Wilson, upon evidence that the above act was inadequate to restrain the negro-catching propensitives of some officers in the service, proposed April 3. further action to the same end; and the Senate considered April 14. his resolution of inquiry. Mr. Grimes, of Iowa, in supporting it made a statement as follows: In the month
