Legislative Victory Jubilee.


Our Legislature, OH Monday last, got
jubilant upon the reception Of the victory
at Fort Donelson, and for moment for
got their own grand retrenchmcnt scheme,
and adjourned over for the day to give
vent to their joyous hearts. They met
in the Hall Of the House, and let loose
their eo,ked up feelings in patriotic
speechifying. Now in all this we can
see nothing wrong, only we do not think
that these gentlemen, who are so earnest
in theirfeforts to retrench the expenses
of the State, and refuse to have their pro-
ceedings printed because it will be attend
ed with a,ittle expense, and are working
SO hard to keep their acts from the know
ledge OF the people, by repeating all acts
ordering the publication of the laws in
the county papers, should spend $500 OF
the peoples money to rejoice over the
victory achieved by our army at Fort
Doiiclson. We notice that the very gen
tlemeh who are SO chock full of retrench-
mention these points, were the very ones
who voted for the adjournment, whilst
those whoopposed them in their efforts to
keep the people in ignorance were opposed
to the measure. Come, gentleman, in
such times the State can't afford to pay
You 81 per day to have a jubilee at the
capital.

Six miles from Springfield on the eth, a
skirmish took place between our advance
and party Of rebels, in which nine of the
latter were killed. One of our men was
Islightly wounded
AT sunrise on Che same day 300 of the
enemy attacked our pickets, but were
driven back with loss of 81.
/ This was regarded as the commence
ment of the battle, and 5000 cavalry and
infantry, with a battery of artillery, were
sent forward. The battery was placed on
an eminence commanding the supposed
approach of the rebels, and three Shells
We're thrown, to which no response was
made, and our force retired, leaving a
strong picket guard. During the night
continuous firing was kept up by,our pick
cts. At 9 O'clock on the morning of the
18th our army advanced in line of battle,
aud at daybreak the third division, headed
| by the 4th Iowa, entered and took peace
| ful possession of the town. Price had
left at 2 O'Clock on the same morning,
leaving owe six hundred of his sick, large
quantities of forage and wagons behind
him. He had $4,000 effective troops and
fifty pieces of artillery. Yesterday eve
ming a battalion of our cavalry captured
100 wagons of his train, and last night
| firing by pickets was heard in the direction
of the retreating foe. This morning at 6
O'Clock our. whole force followed the
enemy. g.
1t is reported that Price is merely fall
ing back to meet Mcintosh who was com
ing up with reinforcements, and on his
joining him he would return and give us
battle. The probabilities are, however,
that he is in full retreat.
! People in and around Springfield express
unbounded satisfaction at the arrival of our
troops,y and general rejoicing is manifest
throughout the entire Southwest at the
retreat of the rebels. -.. b.. i,....,t. -.s,..
This expedition will doubtless end the

washingtcn's Birthday

Tomorrow will be the 22d of February,
a day celebrated in American history as
the natal day of George Washington, who
earned for himself the proud name of the
f..hyr of his country. The day has, since
the Inauguration of the United States
government, been duly honored by the
people, and fragrant as the rich odors of
the flowers at early morn, before the sun
has kissed the dew from their bright faces,
is the memory of the departed hero and
statesman in the minds of all true Ameri-
cans. Tie day opens up to memory The
recollections of that long buried period,
and in imagination picturessof revelations
airy suffering, ensanguined contests and
brilliant victories are drawn, that roll
away at sweep the accumulated progress
that fourscore years has made in Ameri-
can Institutions, and we live over again
the. days that tried mems souls-sympa
thizing with them in their trials, mourn
ing over their reyerses. rejoicing with
them in their victories, and triumphant in
the achievement of freedom and inde-
pentence. The birthday of Washington
this year viii be duly honored through
out the loyal States, and it is right and
proper that it should be. Let us never
forget the man who, through providence,
was instrumental in working out our civil
redemption, and anew upon the altar of
Liberty let us swear that the fair temple
erected by their yalor, shall never be torn
down by the ruthless hands of migrate
children and black hearted traitors.
