The LINCOLN CONGRESS.

In the Lincoln Congress Tie 10th inst,
among the proceedings that took place was the
following:
In the Senate, on motion of Mr. Wilson, of
Mass, the bill relation to the arrest Of persons
caimed as held to service or labor (meaning negro
>avcs) by officers in the military or naval service
of the United States, was taken up.
The bill provides that any officer arrcsting per-
sons held to service labor shall be discharged
from the service.
Mr. Coamer otlcrr! amendment or, as a sub
sttute that 10 officer Of the army or navy, militia
volunteer shall assume to exercise any authori-
~ to arrest, detain, hold control any person
held to service, and that any officer so offending
be dismissed from the service. Agreed to.
Mr. Salisbury, (opp.) of Del, offered the follow
ing amendment section:
Nor shall any soldier or officer, under like pen
atty, in any way entlce, dccoy. retain any such
person from his or her master or owner.
Mr. Saul,berry said that he thought that the
officers or soldiers Of the t. States ought to have
nothing to do with the question at all either way
Mr. Rice, Opp Of Min, moved to add after
the words ''master or owner" the words 'who
may be loyal citizen Of the United States. !"
Agreed to.
Mr. Wilson, opposed the amendment. lie was
against any kind Of justification of slavery. What
he wanted was to prevent officers of the army from
returning slaves. Some officers have already dis
graccd the service in this way and, God willing,
he Mr. Wilson, if he had the power, meant to
prevent their confirmation by the Senate.
Mr Pearce said the effect of the bill without
the amendment would be to invite the slaves of
Mary land to come to the army where they would
be safe from the legal rights Of their owners. He
thought that justice demanded that the bill should
be amended
In the House, Mr. Blair, [Rep,) of Mis- souri,,
asked leave to present memorial of one hundred
and forty colored persons of California; asking that
provision be made for the colonization of that
class, and where color will not be badge of de-
graduation.
The 81 oakcr said the memorial could be present
ed under the rule.
Mr. Blair asked that it be printed, to which the
House agreed.

The Herald's financial article slys that the
National Treasury is SO depressed that it is be-
coming impossible to pay the most ordinary de-

ANOTHER WARNING.-With the number of
accidents constantly occurring with Firearms it is
surprising that more caution is not used. 1eser-
day, mournful casualty occurred, which presents
an important fact that a man lost his life Mr.
Press B. Patterson had loaded pistol in his
hand, and his wife begged him to put it down.
He took off the cap and threw it on the floor
piayfully presenting it to his breast, he said, 90 it
can't fire. and drew the trigger, but Of the
p"rc"ssion pomder .fiono the cap o"heri"g to the
nipple, it exploded, and sent a ball through his
heart.
The subject of the sad casolty of our
volunteers in the Hampton Legion, and lost leg
in the battle of Manassas. We saw him the Gay
after his leg amputated at Culpeper Court
House, and learned that he bore himself CALAMITY
in the fight. He leaves widow to mourn her
sad bereavement.
1t frequently happens that loaded guns or
pistols are allowed to remain so, because the caps
are removed. The sad case here reported shows
that the removal of the cap does not exempt from

DEFEAT OF THE ENEMY.

We make the following extracts from letter
received in Columbia (says the Caroliniau) from a
Young man who was formerly resident of this
city, aud is now connected with a Georgia Reg-
ment:
ave took up line of march on the 1st inst
from Winchester, and, after three days march, we
arrived in sight of town called Bath We
opened our bull dogs the Yankees, and you
would have split your sides laughing at the rascals
running Our regiment was in advance. We
doubIe-qucked after them for six miles to the
Potomac River aud when we got there the Yam
KEGS had crossed and burnt the bridge. There
was one regiment that had camped on the Virginia
banks-they left everything in the shape of tents,
guns, commissary stores, blankets, clothing &C.,
for the rebels to get their paws on. 1t was the
Both Illinois Regiment, commanded by Colonel
Osborn. On the opposite side of the river a
town called Hancock, which you will see by look
ing on the map We sent a flag of truce for
a surrender Of the town. and if not, to remove
the women and children. They did not surrender
and we opened twenty-six pieces Of artillery on
the town and made the Yankees leave. We then
sent fierce mp the river and burnt two Railroad
bridges on the Baltimore ard Ohio Railroad, and
broke Dam No. 6 on the Chess peake and Ohio
Canal, burnt large depot, killed, wounded and
took prisoners sixty-fvc men that L saw; how
many more | am hot able to say. Our army con-
sisted Of ll,GOO or l2,GOO men and thirty-two
pieces Of artillery.
On the Sd inst, it commenced showing, and
continued until the 9Th. The snow was about
two feet deep, and we had tents to sleep in
from the LIST until the 9th We lost two men
from cold, and the ID Arkansas three. 1t was
the hardest time that ever this boy saw

DISCORD AT THE NORTH.

We learn from the n Y Herald that that branch
of the great Yankee nation of which Greeley is the
orr an, very much dissatisfied with the gcnera.ship
of Mcclellan, and agitation is on foot to compel
him to rcsg On. His diatory proceedings are sharply
commented on, and incompctency and treachery

the Rcbels-aLd surpaaS them in di>c line, valor
and all the essentials for successful war, cxcept

admitted that the Rebels outstrip them. Nc

There is some show of justice IN Greeley's com :

Yankees have achieved very little. 1t is not for

But their failure SO far corroburates the opinion
we have long entertained, that they are not capa-
