THE EXPEDITION AGAINST THE CHINESE Pr
RATEs.-Among the department news of the
Washington Union we find the following partic-
ulars Of the recent successful expedition against
the Chinese pirates;
Adyices have been received by the Secretary of the
Navy from the East India squadron, dated Hong-K
August 1866 An engagement had taken place on the
4 August between divisions of boats from the United
States steam rigats Powhatau and her British Msestys
steam sloop Rather, Commander William A. Fellows, and
large feet of pirstical junks which had infested the
neighboripg waters and committed extensive depreda-
tions on commerce for sometime past The Powhatans
boat expedition was in command of Senior Lieutenant
B Peyran; that Of the Rather was commanded by Com
mander William A. Fellows himself. The fight was
severe ana ended in complete rout Of the pirates Cap
tain Fellows having engaged war junk with his gg's
and five musketeers, Lieutenant Rolando came to
his assistance and captured the junk by boarding her
after sncountering hand to hand resistance Imme-
date after her capture she blown up by ths
praoa crew who fighting was forced be-
low and is supposed in his desperation to have fred
train communicating with the magazine
The effects most dsstrous cspsizng the Ratter's
gig, blowing Captain Fellows overheard, together with
Lieutenant Rolsndo and number of the Powhatan's
men, killing two and severely woundng others, one OF

who had fought galantly during the day. was shot se
rsrey in the groin after being Of the first to gain shs
ensmy's deck.
Many instances Of individual galantry and daring are
detailed in the report which have neither the time
nor the room to notice praise given in the
port to all who participated in the engagement,
During the action ten wsr1junks, mounting on an
average sixteen or eighteen guns of from six to sixty
eight FOUNDERS were burned blown up and destroyed

and resisted by those on the spot, and the a.
sailants driven of 1t was hoped that. az this
attempt had proved SO signal failure. there
would be no further distur bance, and that the
election would be permitted to proceed quietly
for the balance of the day. But it was soon

DAILY CRESCENT.

FROM TExAs.--The steamship Mexico, Capt
Lawless, arrived on Saturday last from Calves
ton. From the News we extract the following
paragraphs: a,.
gentleman from San Antonio informs us
that Capt. Callahan was recruiting his ranging
force in San Antonio, with view Of marching
again into Mexico and chastising the Indians
and Mexicans, whom he recently engaged in
battle Volunteers were plenty, and strong
camp had been established o short distance out
Of town. Callahan demolished the town of
Pedras Negras, before quitting the west bank Of
the Rio Grande, 1t was reported that the
famous chief, Wild Cat, had crossed into Texas
st the head Of one hundred and fifty warriors.
The chivalry Of the West is reused and Wild Cat
will have to retreat Our informant believes
that the ranging forces will certainly chastise
those who may oppose them in their determine
tion to punish the Mexicans and Indians who
have pillaged and murdered on our frontier.
Gen. Smith will make an attempt to stop the
Rangers from invading Mexico, but he will
hardly be able to do 30. The Rangers, we pre-
sumo. will be across the Rio Grande before Gen
Smith can collect force to detain them, and it
is useless to make the attempt, although we
presume Gen Smith would be censured if he
failed to do it. i3 ~ ta.
We learn that the certificate of election to
Congress in the East has been issued to Col.
Matt Ward, (Demoorat) he having majority
of 1853 votes. -.- l~s-5z 80 ar W
/. The Liberty vote, thrown out because of it's
irregularity, giving majority (for M. L.
Evans, instead Of L. D. Evans, Of 100 votes, less
majority for Ward, in Jefferson and Orange,
would have left Ward only two majority, had
the whole vote been returned correctly.
Gherke, convicted of murder in Houston, and
sentenced to be hung, has been again reprieved
by Gov. Pease. The Telegraph says:
Gherke has been examined by three of our
resident physicians, Drs. Smith, Cone and
Tucker, who, in their report to Gov Pease,
state it as their belief that be is an unfit subject
for capital punishment.

CORRUPT PARTIEs.-The American party is

rupt party twill compare most favorably with
the opposite one. What is bad and corrupt in
the American party is American badness and

q share of native corruption in it too And, in
addition, has it not the ,phote of the foul and

yet this party claims to be pure. and aims to
