The following named defendants, indicted for issuing notes of a less denomination than $5, severally paid to the Clerk the costs in their cases, when nolle prosequies were entered by the Attorney for the Commonwealth, viz: R.

Confederate Congress.First session. Senate. Wednesday, April 16, 1862. Mr. Baker, of Florida., introduced a bill to alter the mode of auditing public accounts. Mr. Baker explained that the object of the bill was to make the registry of papers unit seem in the Treasury Department. The bill was referred to the Committee on Finance. Mr. Hill, of Ga., presented the petition of B. Levy, the loyal brother of an alien enemy, asking for exemption in his favor under the law. Referred to the Judiciary Committee. Mr. Maxwell, of Fla., introduced the following: Resolved, That the Committee on the Judiciary be instructed to inquire and report whether the treaties of the United States with foreign nations, made prior to the separation of the ex-federate States from that country, are still in force by virtue of international law, or any law of Congress, as between the confederate States and said foreign nations. Agreed to. Mr. Sparrow, from the Military Committ
honorable people, and could not have succumbed to a braver enemy. For himself, he observed that he was perfectly satisfied with his share of the war, and did not care how soon it stopped. Our commanders displayed the most gallant daring, heading successive charges in person, riding up and down the lines, encouraging the troops, and remaining in the thickest of the fire. This will account for the death of Albert Sidney Johnston, the General-in-Chief, and the wounds of Bushrod Johnson, Hindman, Breckinridge, Gladden, and others. All these officers covered themselves with glory. Gladden continued to rally his troops enthusiastically, after his arm was shot away. Breckinridge had three horses killed under him, the first being a six-thousand dollar animal recently presented. Poor Sidney Johnston was struck no less than three times, while in the act of leading a charge upon the enemy's camp, twice in the body and once in the leg. The latter severed the femoral artery, and soo
Y. M. C. A. --A meeting of the Young Men's Christian Association was held evening before last, (Tuesday.) in the First Presbyterian Church, (Rev. Dr. Moore's.) The attendance of ladies and gentlemen was very good. Many of our clergymen and a number of military gentlemen were present. After singing, prayer was offered by the Rev. Dr. Hoge. The report of the Army Committee was then read by their chairman. Mr. Wm. P. Munford.--This was a most interesting document, and detailed the operations of the Committee from its organization to the present time. A depot had been early established for the reception and storing of articles contributed by the benevolent for the use and comfort of our soldiers. These contributions had consisted of thousands of articles of clothing, medicines, cordials and delicacies for the sick. They had been duly acknowledged and judiciously distributed to the soldiers. Liberal sums of money had been also supplied, so that the labors of the Committee had

Will he find the foe? I am not sure that he will soon find him in large numbers. If he meats him, will he conquer him?--There is not doubt of it with such troops, so well armed, and with such ponderous masses of artillery, and led by such experienced officers as Heintzelman, McDowell, Franklin, Sumner, Hooker, Smith, McCall, Cassy, Doubleday, and their associates, who have seen service, and such recruits from civil life as Backs, Wadsworth, Martindale, Cochrane, and others who are eager to distinguish themselves, the grand army of the Potomac, whether its nominal board be McClellan, McDowell, or Hallack, or Fremont, or the President of the United States, (Its Constitutional Commander-In-Chief,) or with concert of action, even if it have no nominal head, will know no such word as fail !

Hustings Court, April 16th. --Present, Recorder Jas K. Caskie, and a full bench. A. T. Peebles was fined $5 for failing to attend Court Tuesday as a juror. Martha Pemberton was fined $10 for permitting her slave to go at large and hire himself out, contrary to law. John Denzler was tried by jury for an assault on Hannah Houck, (his sister.) The jury returned a verdict of not guilty. The following named defendants, indicted for issuing notes of a less denomination than $5, severally paid to the Clerk the costs in their cases, when nolle prosequies were entered by the Attorney for the Commonwealth, viz: R. T. Reynolds, two cases; W. P. Perkins, four cases; Francis B. Hart, six cases; George I. Herring, two cases; Wm. G. Dandridge, two cases; John B. Glazebrook, two cases; A. D. Williams, two cases; T.

e committee, reported back favorably the bill for the re- lies of the legal representatives of Adjutant Samuel L. Wilkes. The bill was passed. Mr. Sparrow also reported adversely to the memorial of the Committee of Public Safety of New Orleans, suggesting the propriety of instituting a general committee of safety. The committee asked to be discharged from further consideration of the subject; which was agreed to. Mr. Sparrow, from the same committee, also reported favorably upon House bills to organize a signal corps and to increase the artillery corps of the army, and unfavorably upon the resolution to appoint cooks for companies in the army. Mr. Mitchell, of Ark, from the Committee of Postal Affairs, reported a bill on behalf of the committee to amend the act regulating the postal arrangements of the Confederacy, and providing that, from and after the 1st of July next, the post on single letters, weighing not more than one-half ounce, shall be ten cents, to any po
ral yesterday that the Merrimac was aground off Craney Island and, if this should be so, there is but little excuse for our naval force if the opportunity is not taken advantage of to destroy her. From General Banks the War Department are in receipt of a dispatch which states that in General Jackson's rebel camp it was believed that General Beauregard was dead — It is probable, however, that there is some mistake in the news, and that the intelligence of the death of General A. S. Johnston which has been confirmed by General Beauregard's dispatch, has in some measure been confounded with that of Gen. Beauregard himself. Later intelligence from Port Royal indicates that the operations of Gen. Hunters department are progressing favorably; but to enable him to carry out to the fullest attend his programme, and facilitate mastered the coast, it is necessary that he should be speedily reinforced with fresh troops, and we presume the War Department is not blind to the necessity.
er yet been able to bring themselves to consent to see the Union broken up. Such a thing has not entered into our calculations, and cannot. Beauregard.--The Union is already broken, and the man, woman, and child in the South will willingly parish before it shall be restored. What force have you had engaged to-day? Prentiss.--Six divisions, numbering a little over 7,000 each — the whole not amounting to more than 40,000. Gen. Grant commands, assisted by Gens. Sherman, McClernard, Huriburt, Wallace, and myself. Gen. Smith is sick, and has not been on the field. My division was the first to receive your attack, and we were not properly supported; if we had been, the day might have gone otherwise — There has been mismanagement somewhere. Had I been supported in time, we should have broken your centre at the time we stopped your advance. Beauregard.--You are mistaken, General. My order of battle was such that if you had even penetrated the centre of our front line, it w
