Gilmore Simms, of South Carolina, have been deeply grieved to learn the succession of calamities with which this first of Southern authors, and pure and high-minded man, has been visited.

Johnston. Mr. Haynes said he had no objection to the resolution of the House, as to what they did say, but he did object to what they did not convey. Mr. Orr, of South Carolina, although he concurred in the resolutions and would not vote against them, still thought them premature, since we yet know little of the extent of the victory.

Placed upon the calendar. Also, a bill for increasing the efficiency of the cavalry corps, with a recommendation that it do not
