The Governor recommends that the
State assume the collection of the direct
national tax Of So ,I5S, being its proper
ton Of the s20,000,o00 authorized by
Congress.
The State has contributed FIVE reei-
ments of infantry, one battery of artillery

teers twenty regiments of infantry,

The Governor urges the repeal Of the
constitutional discrimination between citi-
zens of alien and those of foreign birth.
The recommendation made by the General
Government with reference to coast de-
fence is fully endorsed. x communica-
ton from General Totten upon the

The other Side of the Last Cheat
Mountain Fight.

Statements begin to appear to the effect
that the late loud-trumpeted victory Of
Gen. Milroy in Western Virginia. ike
several of our other boosted SUCCESSES in
that quarter, was really repulse. The
Wheeling Intelligenccr of the 23d denies
that the rebels burnt their camp or slipped
away in the night, denounces the tele-
graphic reports as fctions, and concludes !:
Gen. M. took parts of some four or FIVE
regiments-the Cd Virginia, the 9th and
18th Indiana, the 25th and 32d Ohio,
marched from Cheat Mountain to the AL
leghenies, some thirty miles, and came up
on the enemy in ambush, some two thou
sand strong, with his own men quite ex-
hausted. Our men discovered at the first
fire that great mistake had been made
They had been led TO expect different
meeting. Scouts had reported the enemy
only about thousand strong, and in a
place where they could be easily taken.-
Our men were all eagerness to bag them.
They supposed themselves double as strong
as the enemy. Instead of that, they were
scarcely more than half as many. No
wonder, then, that in finding their mis-
take, and coming on heavy FIRE, one or
two of the regiments hinched badly at
first. The expediti,n was volunteer
one altogether, and companies were made
up from the different regiments just as
individuals offered
The Cleveland Leader of the 9th pub
fishes letter signed &C. G. Brandt, Co.
+, sd Ohio, confirming the Intelligence
er's account throughout The writer says
he commanded his company and was
wounded during tho engagement The
indianapolis Journal has charged that the
Ohio and Virginia regiments Gran like
dogs" when the enemy opened fire
Brandt says, latter the opening fire, both
the 18th Ohio and 18th InGiana broke
ranks, and found shelter behind the trees"
He describes disorderly retreat, n rally,
one or two abortiye attempts to charge,
and says:
The day was lost. The 18th Indiana
and I'd Virginia Were detained, and ar
rived too late. The 9th fought bravely,
and was in the fort twice, but could not
hold it alone, the I'd Virginia having
broke ranks near the beginning of the at
tack.
In conclusion, he tersely sums up the
whole story
We we're whipped, but did all that liv-
ing men could do, and it was impossible
for so few to prevail against SO many.
This is the late glorious victory beyond
Cheat Mountain. by which the heart of
the Nation was made glad When we
learn honestly to acknowledge our defeats
instead Of trying to puff them into VIC
tories, we may have more hopes of success
some day, in the far Of "good time com.

Washington, Jan. 2


1t is doubtful whether all the cores
pondence between this and the European
governments touching the rights of neu-
trails and bellgerents on the ocean, called
for by Senator Summers resolution, will
be communicated to the Senate. Enough
will be made public, however, to show
that Russia, Spain and the smaller mari
time powers are almost ready TO aceede to
Mr.. Marcy doctrine, by which private
property is guaranteed the same immunity
on the ocean as on land, that France is
not far behind them, and that Great Bri-
tain alone can dispute therecent champion
ship of neutral rights and stands by her
old precedents. The publication will,
without doubt, contribute TO the success
of a movement in the right direction al.
ready on foot in England. The earliest
letters date back to 1856 soon after the
Congress Of Paris adjourned. Some of
the ablest in the collection are from Mr..
Mason, the predecessor of Mr.. Faulkner.
Alr. Pickens' dispatches from st. Pc
tersburgh are full of interesting converse
tons OH the subject between himself and
Gortschacoif, which are perhaps too free
and easy TO be made public The whole
subject will probably be discussed when
the resolution is answered
The Sub CoRmittee of Ways and
Means are engaged in preparing general
tax bill, which will be the basis of ma
tional currency. The Committees idea
is to raise money enough to sustain the
credit of the Government, though the tax
may for the time being be more than
heavy. The Committee is also maturing
a tariff bill, the provisions of which will
largely increase the duties of many ar
ticles of general consumption
Official information received at the
Medical Department of the Army of the
Potomac states that the mortality is less
in proportion to the number than in any
American city. The Department has the
official list of III 900 soldiers, aud the
health of that large body of men, not
withstanding their exposure, il better
than an equal number of men anywhere
in the United States

Rebel Scouts came yesterday some
eighty rods this side of Fairfax Court
Couse, on the Little River Turnpike, ahI
on the Falls Church Road, they came
within half mile Of our pickets, and
watched them closely. Squads Of their
Cavalry occupy the hills surrounding Fair
fax. A large force is two miles beyond
and eight regiments are at Flint Hill.

ton bill The members of the Commit
tee are generally adverse to it, and instead
of it, bill prepared by the Committee
and predicated on the suggestions of the
