that it is not the purpose OF the Governor

SECRETARY STANFoN.-The various rumors to
the effect that Secretary Stanton is to assume
the active management Of the army, leaving
to Gen. Mcclellan the command OF the Pc,

since, the staff Of Gen. Mcclellan were mott

of purchasing certain personal supplies for
their use. s-s--- All. AL. -..a .-.
In consequence Of .he state Of the roads

tire army, with the exception Of the army oil

BaS- The regulation requiring all passes
across the military lines to be signed by the
Secretary of State, and countersigned by the
General Commanding, has been rescinded by
by Secretary Stanton, who directs that here
after all applications for passes to go South
shall be made to General Dix, at Baltimore,
who shall act upon his own discretion. The
order also directs that all prisoners of wal, and
other persons imprisoned by authority, who
shall be released on parole OF exchange, shall
report themselves to General Dix, and be SUBJ

PENNsYLvAN1A's DIRECT TAX. - Governor
Curtin has signed the bill passed by the Legi-
stature for the assumption Of that portion of
the direct tax appointed to the State of Penn
syIvania. The fact has been officially commu.
nicated to the Federal Secretary of the Treas
ury, and as soon as the rsesirt of the Treasur-
er of the United States is forwarded, Penn
syvania's share of the current years war tax
will be fully liquidated. All this is done with
out imposing additional taxation upon the
Commonwealth. Having been the first to
complete aud exceed her quota of men for the
war, Pennsylvania is also the first to pay her
share of the expenses. TIE resources of the
Commonwealth are so abundant, and its Fl.
nances have been so dscreety managed dur
ing the trying period of war that it is able to
bear its burdens without difficulty.

HORRIBLE ACCIDENT AT DUNKIRK.-An &C.
cident occurred at Dunkirk yesterday afternoon,
by which probably two persons have lost their
lives 1t appears that Mr.. Ephraim Jones,
his wife and son, were in wagon coming from
Sheridan aud attempted to cross the track
west Of the passenger depot, as the engine
which brought the mail train on the n. I.
and Erie Road, was running down toward the
switch. The Wagon had almost cleared the
track when the cow catcher struck the hind
wheel, and carried the back part of the wag-
on round, breaking it somewhat. Mrs. Jones,
10 her fright, jumped from the wagon directly
upon the track, falling across the rail in such
manner that both of her legs were cut off,
one above and the other below the knee. Mr..
Jones and the boy were unhurt, and were car
ried by the frightened horse some rods, when
Mr. Jones, telling his son to hold the horse,
went back to where his wife lay. On seeing
the horrible mangled condition of the poor
woman, he exclaimed " my wife is killed p
threw back his head and fell to the ground =
Both were conveyed to the Eastern Hotel,
close by. Every effort was promptly used to
restore Mr.. Jones, but was unsuccessful. He
was dead. His body was carefully examined
by physicians but. no injuries discovered
Mrs Jones was alive yesterday, but no hopes
were entertained of lher recovery Fredenia

SG- The fears expressed in regard to the
action of the Emperor Napoleon, on the 9th
alt, when the session of the French Chambers
were opened, have not been realized. He con-
tented himself with expressing a regret that
French commerce was deranged by the exist
ing difficulties in this country, and announcing
that, so long as rigid blockade was main
tanned by our navy, it was the duty of foreign
nations to abstain from any violat ion of it
Vague rumors still reach US from England of
his intention to forciby break our blockade,
but it is so common for English journals to at
tribute sinister designs to Louis Napoleon, in
reference to every important movement, that
but little reliance can be placed in such as
sertions.
The success which have lately been achive-
ed by our army will prove more efectual
check to hostile action Oh the part of Europe,
an Government than any other influence we
could exert When the news reaches the Old
World of our triumph at Mill Springs, the cap
ture of Fort Henry, the success of General
Burnside, Notwithstanding the numerous OBJ
stacles he was unexpectedly obliged to encoun-
ter, and Of the preparations we have made for
hemming in the enemy on all sides, there will,
we hope, be little disposition to sustain the
Infamous conspiracy which is now gaspiDg in
the last stage of a rapid decline.

BF The steamship Asia arrived at New
York on Saturday morning, bringing intelli
gence to the lst instant. The news indicates
prevalent belief in England that the French
Emporer's speech, at the opening of the Legi-
stature, really means DoninterVention. And
this feeling would appear to be iu part reflect
ed in the English Money market, where Con-
soils, on Saturday, the lst, are reported at SO
7.8 to 90. Further restrictive orders have is
sued fron the English Foreign Office in refer
ence to the furnishing OF supplies for American
vessels of war or commissioned rebel boats
The orders, however, lay down no new princi-
pie, bat merely point to the observance OF
what is defined as the strictest { neutrality"
Among the general news of interest by this
arrival is the report that Roman EcclesiaSti-
all, Council is summond to meet at Rome in
the month of May and with this, We have
accounts of additional troubles in Russia at
tendant On tie working out of the Emporer's
policy of emancipation. The Mexican ques-
tion is still furnishing grounds for much spec
ulation in the higher political circles OF the
three intervening powers and if the Paris
Patis may be held as an authority, the SUBJ
ject of re-estabIshiDg a mon-archical form OF
government is still seriously canvassed. The
arrangement contemplated still lpoints to nego'
tiations with Austria, by which she should re-
sign her Itacn pretentions in consideration OF
having an Archduke of the Empire planted on
the throne of Mexico. BY this arrival
MiddIing Cotton is reported at 2sa29c., and
in Breadstuffs there is little change to note,
the market for Wheat being dull, and Wes'
tern mixed Corn being held at 90 cents,

EXPULSION OF JESSE D. BRIGHT.

On the first page ofour paper will be found
the remarks of Hon. GEORGE LANDoN, OF the
State Senate, and Hon. H. w. TRACY, OF the
House of Representatives., on the resolution
instrncting our United States Senator's to vote
for the expulsion of Jesse d. Bright from that
body. We publish these remarks with much
qualification, as we believe they embody the
sentiments of large majority of their con-

stature as we'll as in our National Councils, the
people of our county are not misrepFesented.
AS these speeches explain themselves, an

The attack on Fort Douelson commenced at
halfpast seven o'clock on Thursday morning,
February l3, by the land forces, under Gen.

forty thousand strong. .... -..
The rebels gave battle from their intrench-

fighting and considerable loss on both Sides
Our troops took two of the eHemy's batteries
outside the fort, and held them.
Only one gunboat, the Carondelet, attacked
Che fort on the river front. .f
The fighting continued until eight O'Clock at
night.
Eight thousand troops and Eve ganboats
