Congress, yesterday. There was no business of importance in the public session of the House of Represents yesterday. Mr. Garther, from the special committee to whom was referred the investigation of the at Roanoke Island, submitted a long hyreport, which was laid on the table and ordered to be printed. A resolution was passed authorizing the payment of the clerk of the committee and witnesses for their attendance. Mr. Conrad, chairman of the Naval Committee, announced that be had some bills which he desired the House to consider in secret session, and the floors were cleared and the doors classed.

He is a bright mulatto, thick set, about 5 feet high, 15 years old; had on when last seen a brown sack coat, brown pants, and a military cap. The above reward will be paid for his delivery to me. S.

we published in our paper of yesterday, giving the enemy's account of the great fight at Shiloh, is important, conveying as it does their own admission of the heavy losses which they sustained. This is perhaps, the most frank and sincere account they have given of any engagement the war commenced; and although they have the effrontery to claim a victory, it mainly that they feel themselves whipped. Twenty thousand is the less they as, and of these no less than five general officers. Crittenden, son of the or from Kentucky, is among the The two Wallaoss and Sherman are also numbered among the dead. Buell, they is mortally wounded, while Pr it is known, is a prisoner. Need we any further evidence than these admissions to us that the of our arms was and glorious? They claim that the gallant Beauregard was on our side. This statement no doubt from the full of the lamented Johnston, whose desin deprives our victory in a great measure of its rich fruits — Altogether w

battle, but she also sent to our Capitol her Christian statesmen, to lay broad and deep the foundations of our Republic, who were also willing to raise their eloquent voices in behalf of the Banner of the Cross, and invited to the stand the Hon. J. L. M. Curry, of that State. For about half an hour Mr. C. spoke in his peculiarly eloquent and fervid style, holding the audience in wrapt attention. He expressed his gratification that an institution so catholic in its principles, so earnest tically at work in the Capital of our new Confederacy. The necessity of disseminating the leaven of Christianity through our social masses, so soon to assume a formative state, was demonstrated and enforced. The singular witchery and charm of Mr. Curry's oratory must be felt to be appreciated. It cannot be reported. Hence, lest we do him injustice, we will attempt no further outline of his address. Professor Richardson, of -- College, Mississippi, was then introduced, and addressed the

e, after encountering and mangling obstacles immeasurably worse than all the mud that can be piled between the Potomac and the Rappahannock, opens fire at Roanoke in the East, while Fort Henry, on the Tennessee, and Donelson, on the Cumberland, their brave assailants wallowing to their armpits in the mire, send the echo back to Albemarle. Mitchell, catching the inspiration, buffets sleet and storm, and by forced marches seizes Bowling Green, while Siegel falls suddenly upon Springfield, Curtis chases Price quite down into Arkansas, our gunboats penetrate beyond Pulaski and threaten Savannah, and Gen. Buller hurries off his regiments and transports to the Gulf for an attack, via Ship Island, upon New Orleans! Does this mounting in hot hastes, this gleaming of bayonets and bursting of shells all around from Pickens to Springfield, disturb the equanimity or jostle the self-control of the Major-General Commanding? Not a bit of it. Like Message, of whom Napoleon said, "His head is ne

No doubt the Court or Prosecuting Attorney will soon see the propriety of trying or dismissing these petty cases.

nd tobacco, in order that they may not break through his blockade.--He and M. Mercier are very good friends, and doubtless if M. Mercier should succeed he will bestow an everlasting obligation on Seward. Other foreigners besides M. Belmont own tobacco here, and, if this attempt should succeed, the respective Governments of them all will insist on being placed on the same footing. Thus Mr. Seward will find the dearest wish of his heart gratified. The markets will be furnished in spite of us, and he may sit down perfectly contented. We have every confidence in President Davis. We believe he will neither betray his country himself, nor suffer it to be betrayed. We hope and believe he will give all Europe to understand that if they want tobacco, and cotton, they must raise the blockade, and that they can get it in no other way. These remarks are predicated upon the assumption that the ministerial visit is connected with the tobacco in question. It may not be so, however.

to the Seceders. In more than one of the chief towns of the North there is a Salt-disguised leaning to the Confederate cause; in fact, the principles of the Unionists have only been maintained in supremacy by espionage and terrorism. There is far more reason to suppose that the South has allies in the North than that the North can fled any adherents in the South. The true desire of the North is empire at any price. "One power on this continent, one Government, and one alone; let it be Jeff. Davis's, or Abe Lincoln's, or --." These terms, in which our special correspondent expresses "Democratic ideas," represent probably the dominant feeling of those who are struggling for Union. But that Union has become an impossibility.--The Southerners would now refuse to live under the same Government with the Yankees on any condition whatever, and there are Abolitionists enough in the New England States and pure Republicans enough in the Northwest to forbid any convention in the interests o

Bitter attack on Gen. McClellan. [Special Washington Correspondence of the N. Y. Tribune, March 13th.] Why George B. McClellan was called to the onerous and responsible position he has held for the past seven months, will never be fully explained. When appointed Major-General of Volunteers by Governor Dennison, of Ohio, he was Superintendent of the Ohio and Mississippi Railroad, a dilapidated concern, which had long been on its last legs:--It is putting it in very soft language to say that his standing among railroad managers was not high. In used, the truth would bear me out in asserting that it was rather middling, if not decidedly low. He had put his name to a large volume five years before, as one of the American Military Commission to the Crimes. Of this respectable, though somewhat jejune work the public supported him to be the author. It was known only to a few that it was merely a compilation and translation from European publications — that an enterprising bookselle
