he enemy's forces were in full retreat from Hancock. Gen. Shields and Senator M'Dougall--a Duel on the Tapis. A card was recently published in the Northern journals from General Shields, pronouncing "utterly false" an allegation of Senator McDougall, of California, that he (Shields) was a Secessionist. The Senator is out in the following rejoinder: Astor House, N. Y., Jan. 6, 1862. I am advised that a question has been made concerning a statement made by me at JacksonvillIf it is supposed that in discharging my official duty as a Senator of the United States, in acting upon the nomination of Mr. Shields as a Brigadier General, I can be influenced by menace, I trust that all such hopes will prove unfounded. J. A. McDougall. In connection with the above, the New York correspondent of the Baltimore Clipper, under date of January 7th, says: In consequence of the allegation on the part of Senator McDougal, of California, that Gen. Shields was a Sec

The Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia Press, writing under date of the 8th inst., says: Burnside's expedition, which will probably sail within the present week will be followed by the most important results. It is believed nere in well informed circles that its successful landing will be the signal for a general advance. But a short time ago Gen. McClellan inquired of Gen. Porter in what time he could move. Being answered in twenty-four hours, he rejoined that he "wished the soldiers not to be deluded into the belief that they were about going into winter quarters, but to hold themselves in readiness as they would shortly move forward." Since that time it has transpired that orders have been given to move via Occoquan. As the Burnside Expedition will probably ascend the Rappahannock river, a movement forward via Occoquan will compel the evacuation of the Reb

State of Affairs in Missouri--burning of Austin — Exasperation of Union men, &c. Sedalia, Mo., Jan. 7. --An express messenger from Col. Nugent's regiment, stationed at West Point, in Bates county, arrived here yesterday evening, on his way to St. Louis, with important dispatches to Gov. Gamble. He left Bates county on Friday, and reports that Col. Jennison had burned the village of Austin, in Cass county, instead of Rose Hill. Jennison, after leaving Austin, went in a northeasterly direction. The Union men in Johnson county were so much exasperated at the entourages that have been committed by the Secessionists that nothing but the presence of the Federal troops will save the towns of Lexington and Warrensburg from being burned. The movements of Col. Jennison are kept s
neers with his axe. At one time, four or five of the volunteers had hold of the conductor at once, but he being a powerful man, and armed with the seized bayonet. was able to defend himself. The excitement on board was, of course, very great, but order was finally restored by all, save one, paying their fare. This one was put off the cars, and the train proceeded on to Hartford. Latest from Cairo — Federal reconnaissance--Mature of a Confederate Major. Cairo, Jan. 8. --Flag Officer Foote, with the gun-boats Essex, Lexington, and Tyler, made a reconnaissance down the Mississippi yesterday morning. He went within 200 yards of the range of the rebel batteries. On his return, he was fired at by the rebel gun-boat Mohawk, to which he replied, but the shots all fell short. The flag officer is highly satisfied with the reconnaissance, and has examined all points on the river as near as two miles to Columbus. A despatch from Cape Girardeau yesterday, says that a de
condition they consider the expediency of telegraph and stamp duties, and excise duties upon cotton, tobacco, and all malt, and distilled liquors. On motion of Mr. Cox, it was resolved that the President be requested to communicate to the House what, of any, steps the Executive Department has taken for the systematic exchange of prisoners. Latest from Western Virginia--reported Federal success. Cincinnati, January 8. --A special dispatch from Huttonsville, Va., says that Gen. Milroy's expedition, under Capt. Lacy, in Tucker county, has also dispersed 400 rebels, capturing their Commissary and a large amount of stores; also, a 1st lieutenant and a private. Four rebels were found dead, and a large number wounded. A detachment of the forces was still in hot pursuit of the routed enemy. Further.--The New York Herald, of the 9th instant, has the following later information: Our army in Western Virginia continues active. A brilliant affair is announced to hav
as to the telegraphic censorship of the press, which subject has been referred to the Committee, and compel the production of papers and dispatches sent or proposed to be sent; and that, if necessary, the Committee employ a stenographer. Mr. Vallandigham's resolution was adopted, requesting the Secretary of the Treasury to furnish the sum total of the floating debt of the United States, giving as ar as practicable, the heads under which the said debt may be arranged. On motion of Mr. Upton, it was resolved that the committee of Ways and Means be instructed to consider the expediency of reporting a bill, at their earliest convenience, amending the eighth section of the act of August last, so as to provide for raising $100,000,000 instead of $20,000,000 by taxation, and that in this condition they consider the expediency of telegraph and stamp duties, and excise duties upon cotton, tobacco, and all malt, and distilled liquors. On motion of Mr. Cox, it was resolved that th
lubs is the manufacture of public opinion by means of lectures in favor of their revolutionary views, and instilling them among the generals and subordinate officers of the army, in order to corrupt their minds, and render them disloyal to the government and the constitution. Washington has been specially selected for the purpose, and the Smithsonian Institute is prostituted to the treason. Already Brownson, Channing, Sumner, and Greeley have lectured, and the next, is to be Cheever, then Beecher, Curtis, and Wendell Phillips. Such are the dyed-in-the-wool abolition propagandists who, at the very seat of government, are tainting the army and its officers with their revolutionary ideas. New York money matters. The New York Herald, of the 9th inst., has the following: The upward movements in gold continue; most of the brokers quote it 4 per cent. premium. Exchange is also better; the best bills are held at 114½a115, but, as usual on Wednesdays, there is nothing doing
on the Legislature to place the defences of the State in a better condition while the Federal authorities are putting down the rebellion: Resolved, That all the members elected to the Legislature who, for sustaining the government in a vigorous prosecution of the war, and to put down the rebellion and save the Union, and opposed to any unjust, partial legislation, any corruption in nigh and low places, be invited to take seats in this Convention. The resolution was advocated by Messrs. Ogden and Stetson, and opposed by Mr. Raymond in a speech of considerable length. After a long debate the resolution was lost, under the call for yeas and noes, by a vote 16 to 62. The caucus then proceeded to nominate a candidate for speaker, when Henry J. Raymond was the successful candidate. The Burnside expedition — its destination.
