CONGRESSIONAL.

In the Senate, on the 9th, the "sbuses Of the
medical department." were again the subject of
discussion A resolution submitted by Mr..
SIMS, Of Kentucky, for the appointment Of a
special c0mRit:ee to investigate the complaints
against the department., was adopted. Mr..
SEyHIEs, Of Louisiana, introduced a bill to au-
taorizs the President to take possession Of the
salt works IN Virginia and elsewhere, and work
the same. Mr.. PRESTON met this MA sure at the
trssbho,d, an opposed its refareDcato a commit
tee until he Lad examined it. The bill was laid
uoon the table. Mr.. DAVIS, of North Carolina,
introduced the bin of last session, to provide for
the making Of coins corresponding in weight
with those issued by the Yankee government
On this last proposition the Richmond Hhig ex-
presses the opinion that the preliminary ques-
ton should first be decided, whether or not we
intend to conform cur weights, measures, and
coins to those in use among the people from
whom we have separated. If it be our purpose
to improve upon the old systems to assimilste
our currency TO that Of the foreign nations with
which we expect to trade in future, and to dis
courage commercial lIuotCJuAo5 0ttu tho a.
KEGS, the consideration of Mr.. DAVIS bill ought
to be postponed. It it is not our purpose to do
these things, the bill ought tOreceive the prompt
attention Of Congress, and be passed at an early
day.
In the House, Mr.. Foster, Of Alabama, intro
dueed a resolution Of inquiry, into the expedi-
ency Of drafting negroes, to be employed as
tesmsters, cooks aud nurses in hospitals, in the
place Of soldiers now go employed also to en-
ploy them on public works, aud in the manu-
facture Of iron and salt. Mr.. HartTidge, Of
Georgia, introduced a resolution Of inquiry in
reference to the recalling of our commissioner
from foreign countries, and of requiring all con
suls or ministers residing within the Conted-
crate States, to leave our limits. Both reso-
lutions were adopted. Mr., Barksdale, of Mis-
sissippi, introduced an important bill relating tc
the suspension Of the writ Of ha5sas corpus
which, after some discussion, in which General
Van Dorn's proclamation was reviewed by Mr.
Foote, was referred to the committee on military
Affairs.

FROM CUmBRRLAND GAP.

The Knoxville Register learns that our forces
near Cumberland Gap have captured sky four
and six horse wagons from the Federals, contain
inc. as estimated by our qua5ermasteT, ten days
rations for cur forces, one barrel Of wine and
one Of alcohol. We intercepted a dispatch from
the Federsls to their headquarters, saying that
they had then only three days rations and want
ed a reinforcement Of six regiments, or they
would have to evAcuste the Gap. Our forces
went on from there and bagged Col. Huck's
regiment of Tennessee tories, except a few
s~tragglers, and psroled them, requiring them to
90 North. but still held on to Huck and other
officers. These tories reported to our informant,
as he eonversed with several Of them, that they
were willing to be captured and released from
obligations to fight any more against the South
being heartily tired Of the service. They said
three or four hundred were then prisoners, and
about three hundred had previously deserted.
General Smiths headquarters are at CumDer-
land Ford. The Yankees had tried to e~vaeuate
the Gap.

The Petersburg Express has advices from
Norfolk up TO last Thursday. Much excitement
prevailed in Norfolk, in consequence of the re-
treat of Pope, intelligence of which had reached
there. The Yankees are in great trepldation
about the movements Of Jackson, and unhesita
tingly declare that they would rather hear of his
death than Of ell the Confederate generals.
Washington is said to be in = perfect termeni
over tbs news Of the advance Of the rebel army.
Lincoln's hirelings IN Norfolk were engaged
in enrolling all persons between the ages OF
eighteen and forty-fve under the recent draft
call Of Stanton Il was generally thought that
possibly one company Of eighty or ninety men
might be raised, but not more.
A member Of the 81 Alabama T, giment, who
had been wounded in one of the recent battles
around Richmond, had died at the naval hospital
at Norfolk. His body was placed in a plain
pine coffin and sent over to Norfolk for inter
ment. The ladies Of Norfolk Immediately took
charge of the remains, procured a handsome
metallic burial case, and made arrangements for
the funeral General Vlele, anticipating snOtheI
"secesh" demonstration similar to that Occa-
stoned by the death Of young Keiser sometime
since, issued an order that there was to be no
procession. This order, however, at the request
Of the ladies, was revoked. and the remains Of
the young patriot were followed to the grave by
about 1000 Of the most respectable citizens OF
the place.

IMPORTANT OFTICIAL DOCUMENT


FATHER PoTNT, August 26.-By the steamer
Hibernian, which passed this point this morn
ing. we have received the following highly in
t~eTestinp letter, written by Earl Russell, in re-
ply to a dispatch from Mr. Seward;
EARL RUSSELL TO MR.. STUART.
FOREIGN OFFICE, LONDON. July 26-SIR:
I have left hitherto unanswered and unnoticed,
the dispatch of Mr.. Seward, which Mr.. Adams
delivered more than a month ago. / have done
SO. partly because the military events referred
to in it were, in the opinion of her maJesty's
government, far from being decisive, and partly
because there was no proposal in It upon which
her msjesty's government was called upon to
come to any conclusion.
The events subsequent to the date Of Mr. Sc
wards letter, have shown that hor msjesty's
government in its opinion on the first OF these
points. was not mistaken. Victories have been
gsined-reverses have followed, positions have
been reached in the near neighborhood OF the
capital Of the Confederates, and these positions
have been again abandoned.
These events have been accompanied by great
loss Of life in the hospitals, while such measures
as the confscatiOn bill have passed through both
Houses of Congress, and with the proclamation
of Gen. Butler at New Orleans, besr evidence
Of the increasing bitterness Of the strife.
The approach of a serviie war so much insis-
ted uDon by Mr.. Seward in his dispatch, only
forewarns us that another element Of destruc-
ton may be added to the loss Of property and
waste of industry which already ataicts the
country SO lately prosperous and tranquil. Nor
Oh the other point to which l have ad7erted,
have 1 anything now to say.
From the moment that the intelligence first
reached this country that nine States and seve-
raj millions of the inhabitants Of the great
American Union had seeded, and had made war
on the government Of President Lincoln, down
to the present time, her msjesty's government
has pursued a friendly, open, and consistent
course. They have been neutral between the
two parties to a civil war. Neither the loss OF
the raw material of manufacture so necessary TO
a great portion of our people, or the insults con
stantly heaped upon the British name IN
speeches and newspapers, nor a rgOr beyond
the usual practice of nations with which the
Queens subjects attempting to break loose from
the blockaiing Of the Southern ports have been
| treated, have induced her majesty's government
to swerve not one inch from impartial neutrality.
At this mopent they have nothing more at heart
than to see that contamination which the Presi-
dent speaks Of in his answers to the governors of
eighteen States, namely, the bringing Of this I'M
necessary and injurious civil war to a speedy
and satisfactory conclusion. As to the course OF
opinion in this country, the President Is aware
that perfect freedom to comment upon all public
events is in this country the invarisble practice,
sanctioned by law and approved by the univer-
sal senses Of the nation. l am, etc.

ENEMY ROUTED Ar STEVENSON.
CITIZENS TRUE 10 THE SOUTH

B~RIDGEPoRT, August 31--(Yia Mobile, Sep
tember D.-General Maxey's brigade, under
command Of Colonel McKinstry, of the 32l Ala
bama regiment, attacked the enemy, 1900 strong,
at Stevenson, with infantry, artillery and cav
airy, at eleven o'clock to-day.
After a few hours sheIing, the enemy evaeu-
ated their Notifications, leaving on the Nashville
trains.
A quantity of cotton and stores were captured.
Our command met with a most cordial Tecep-
ton from the citizens-ladies urging them not
to stop till they had killed or captured the entire
Yankee force. The joy of the citizens was IN
bounded at once more beholdiag the stars aad
bars.
We had engaged the 32l Alabama, 4lst Ala
bama, 25th Tennessee, Major Gunter's dis
mounted parlisaus, Captain Rice's cavalry, and
Freeman's and Ours battery-the whole mum
bering nine hundred men.
Our loss was W wounded, none killed.
Yankee loss unknown.
The Yankee Notifications at Stevenson were
very strong.
Our troops displayed great gallantry. Capt.
Freeman's battery was worked with great skill
and signal effect. Harry Maury commanded
the 32d Alabama with GOODNESS and marked
ability, exposing himself greatly to the Yankee
fire. His conduct is much eulogized.
OF Another Valuable Steamer and
Cargo.
AUGUSTA, September The Savannah pa
pers of this morning state that the steamer
Emma, going down the river Saturday night,
grounded, and was discovered yesterday by the
Federals. She was fred to prevent her falling

ANOTHER BRILLIANT AFFAIR by Col. JACK
MORGAN.-We again have glorious news from
this irrepressible hero. Last Thursday he was
made aware Of the approach Of q large force of
the enemy on his position at HartsYille, which is
about fifteen miles from Gallatin, Tennessee.
He determined to meet them, which he did be-
tween Galla.in and Hartsville. The enemy
proved to be JohHs0u's regiment Of cavalry,
numbering from 700 to 500 effective men, &C
c0rding to the best estimate that could bemsde.
The fight occurred on Thursday, Dist inst, and
lasted six hours, during which Morgan lost one
hundred and twenty men, but succeeded in kill
ing and capturing JOhnsOn's entire command
What was the enemy's loss in killed and wound.

represented as immense. We viii give further
particulars as they arrive.
l. appears from the Nashville UHiOH's account
as reported to US by one who read it, that For
rests command was with Morgan at the time o
the battle, and that the force Of the Contederste'
amounted to 5000, but we have been assured
that Forrest did not join Col Morgan until the
fighting was all over. It is a most brilliant sf

in the neighborhOod Of Tsylor's Furnace, about
twelve miles north Of NewtOwn, Frederick

The telegraph announces the departure nom
Philadelphia of the iron clad frigate New Iron
sides. She goes to sea with sealed orders, and
is intended, It is generally understood IN the
navy, for most important service.
The New Ironsides has been described Ire
meutlv. She is the only mailed frigate built
for the navy Of the United States, and bears a
resemblance to the Black Prince, OF the royal
navy. She is $500 tons burden, and carries 500
men, a full sailing frigate's crew, and torty-nlne
United States marines, picked men" Since
the Wabash first left the Quaker City, no such
naval monster as the New IrOnsides had been
turned out there. Her machinery, battery, ar
mory. yeoman's room and magazines are said to
surDass those departments in any vessel IN the
service. A dispatch received at the Brooklyn
navy ward describes the enthusiasm OF the Pmt-
adeiphians as intense on the departure OF the
vessel. The fact that for days no one was al
lowed to visit her, increased the curiosity with
which the public watched her every movement
The wbarves were crowded as she passed down
the river. and when leaving the navy yard the
crews of the Princeton and Powhatan cheered

srecimen of naval architecture viii be looked to
