d vested in the United States, cause the same to be subdivided and sold in parcels to any loyal citizen, or any person who shall have faithfully served in the army, navy, or marine corps. The preemption principle is also engrafted on the bill. The House went into Committee of the Whole on the state of the Union, on the bill to purchase the hospital in the District of Columbia, known as the Douglas Hospital, and appropriating seventy-five thousand dollars for that purpose. Mr. Edgerton (Ohio) reviewed the Democratic address recently issued, which, while it assumed to support the Government, had not a word against the rebellion — the prime movers in which were the Democrats, the party that made and unmade Presidents with the aid of their Northern allies. It came with bad grace to talk about the loyally of the Democratic party, the maintenance of the Constitution as it is. His colleague (Mr. Vallandigham) was the author of this address, and the life and animating spirit

House--Mr. Porter (ind.) moved to postpone till Wednesday next the motion made by him yesterday, to reconsider the vote by which the House on Monday rejected the bill to confiscate the slaves of rebels. Mr. Rolman (Ky.) moved to lay Mr. Porter's motion on the table. Mr. Blair (Pa.) moved a call of the House, which was disagreed to by three majority. Mr. Edwards (N. H.) moved that the House adjourn.

ents; and denunciation on the one side or enology on the other, had nothing to do with the question. The simple question is, have we a right to tax slaves according to the Constitution? Of this he had no doubt at all.--The slaveholder has peculiar privileges, and a large amount of property in some of these States is invested in slaves; and he saw no reason why they should not be taxed for those peculiar privileges. Mr. Sherman's amendment was rejected — yeas 15, nays 22. Mr. Henderson (Mo.) offered an amendment that the tax herein prescribed, shall not be levied on or collected in any of the States, where the system of gradual emancipation may have been adopted at the time of its collection. Mr. Fessenden said that according to the Constitution, the tax must be equal in all the States. Pending the question, the Senate adjourned.

McDowell beyond Fredericksburg, commanding the Richmond and Fredericksburg road, and one running Westward to Gordonsville. Fremont at Lewisburg, on the unfinished line of the Covington and Ohio Railroad, and, in some degree, threatening the line of their retreat by the Virginia and Tennessee Railroad.--Wool at Norfolk and Suffolk; and Burnside, or his influence, felt in Goldsboro', Weldon and Raleigh. If the railroad gap between Danville and Greensboro' has been completed, that and the Tennessee road, observed by Fremont, are their only lines of retreat.--But of all these movements and ways of movement, we can only speculate for the present, leaving it to a future, not remote, to develop results of which we can now only surmise the probability. The retreat of Banks will neither influence nor retard the great plan, which for many reasons must proceed slowly, but surely t

s having arrived at Corinth on Sunday night, with 7,000 raw troops from New Orleans. Deserters say that the rebel army have more confidence in Bragg and Price than Beauregard. The rebel army is on half rations. They get fresh beef twice a week, and spoiled corn beef the balance of the time, but no pork. The sickness in their army is fearful and increasing while the health of our army is rapidly improving. Their officers have sent all their baggage and personal effects to Grand Junction. Affairs in Norfolk — a good batch of Munchausen. The Norfolk correspondent of the Philadelphia Inquirer sends that paper, the following information, under date of the 27th ult. There appears to be an uneasy feeling existing as regards the result of the pending battle. The outposts towards Suffolk are being strengthened. The blockade is more rigidly enforced, as an evidence, the passengers from Old Point, notwithstanding they had passes, were put under arrest and marched

ossession in the manner originally intended by the chivalry. The dry dock (not a dry dock now) serves as a grand bathing tub. The timber sheds are used for the brigade leads. The remaining machine shop is used as a Smithery, where our horses are shod, and an office in a corner of the shop has been converted into a gunsmith's workshop by an enterprising regiment of the brigade. In this shop and in the foundry we found many articles packed for transportation, and directed to "Charlotte; N. C.," where the rebels will doubtless make their next bonfire. This locality is fruitful in towns. Nearly opposite us we have Norfolk. We are in Gosport, and north and west of us are Portsmouth and Newtown. This cluster of towns is "successionally" located on the edges of a marsh, in which the aquatic grass grows luxuriantly, making an elegant nest for fevers to batch in. This marsh is crossed by long; narrow, wooden causeways, which the inhabitants call bridges; and these "brid

He claimed that such a tax could be laid without in any way recognizing the offensive doctrine that slaves were property. It was simply a tax on person. Mr. Sherman (Ohio) believed that slaves were persons, and were entitled to all the rights of persons, and as such they could not be taxed in this way, and certainty the Senator from Massachusetts would not propose to tax them as property. Besides, if we undertid we might as well tax the slaveholder as the auctioneer, or any other employment. The slaveholder's employment is to make slaves work — be an auctioneer in human liberty, a broker in human rights, and a juggler in human suffering. Mr. Sherman (Ohio) said he would not reply to the Senator's denunciation of slaveholders. Though he abhorred and opposed slavery, he believed that slaveholders had some constitutional rights, and he would not use such language about them. But this was simply

He claimed that such a tax could be laid without in any way recognizing the offensive doctrine that slaves were property. It was simply a tax on person. Mr. Sherman (Ohio) believed that slaves were persons, and were entitled to all the rights of persons, and as such they could not be taxed in this way, and certainty the Senator from Massachusetts would not propose to tax them as property. Besides, if we undertook to collect such a tax, it would only fail on the loyal men of the Border States, and be looked upon as an indirect attempt at emancipation. He was willing to meet the question of emancipation openly when the time comes, and if he believed the Union could not be preserved without it, he would support the President in emancipation. The only practical way to tax the larger portion of the South was to tax cotton. On

he Government. He had no doubt that this address had inspired the camp of Secession with joy. To talk of peace tends only to strengthen the arm of the rebels. There would be no peace till they are subdued, not by compromise and concession, but by bullets and men. On motion of a member, a resolution was adopted, calling on the Secretary of the Treasury to furnish a statement of the public debt up to this date, together with a statement of the average rate of interest. Mr. Wickliffe (Ky.) introduced a bill which was referred to the Committee on Military Affairs, providing, that whereas, 190,000 more volunteers than were authorized by the act of July last have been mustered, and the money to pay them appropriated during the present session, that the corps of volunteers shall not exceed the number now in the service, unless further authorized by act of Congress. Also, that it shall not be lawful to receive as soldiers, or arm, the fugitive slaves that may be captured by t
