The latest Washington letter to the New
York Evening Post says: 1T IS understood
that bill will soon be introduced into Con-
gress to set apart small plantations i'll South
Carolina for the use Of the contrabands the
negroes to receive for a nominal price, payable
in a tern. of years, plats Of from one to tive
or ten acres, upon which they may live under
the protection Of the Government
It is stated that John s. Rarey the horse
tanner, has been sent to the Army Of the To-
tomac by Gen. Halleck to inquire into the san
itarv condition of its horses and TO suggest
some system to check the mortality among
them.
The sum of $500 has been subscribed in
Richmond in aid of the citizens OF trederlcks~
burg. who have been compelled to fly from their
homes,
As corn is selling at s. Is per bushel IN
Richmond, twenty seven citizens have sub
scribed $4,000 to purchase q supply IN the
Eastern section Of the State 1t is to be sold
to the citizens at cost.
The Penobscot river, for about two miles be-
low Bangor, Me-, was closed by ice On We'd
uesday night last. Twenty-one schooners are
frozen in at Bangor twelve of which were load
ed and ready to sail The amount Of potatoes
on board exceeds 20, 900 bushels.
The proposition for an inquiry concerning
certain arrests is not to be easily STAYED OFT IN
the Senate. Mr., Trumbull declared in the de-
bate that the practice would be dangerous to
the government. There is no doubt, however,
that the House bill to indemnify the President
and others for suspending the privilege Of the
writ Of habeas corpus, will pass the Senate.
It is stated that at tie late Hartsville affair,
nineteen hundred Federal troops were captur-
ed. The report that Col. Morgan was subse-
quently defeated by Gen. Fry, at Gallatin, is
contradicted.
What IS thought to be accurate information,
puts the entire Confederate force in the Shen~
andoah Valley at about twenty three hundred,
under command Of Gen. Jones. They consist
Of Virginia Cavalry and Wheat's Louisiana
Tigers
The Burlington vermont Times is inform
ed that there are now collected at Rouse $
Point about 14,sO0 muskets, $50 swords, 500
large reviewers, 100000 Of caps, and eleven
tons Of powder, which were shipped from New
York 4 portion Of these arms was once stop
ped by Provost Marshal Draper while in traLs-
itu, but very singularly were permitted to 60

Star OF yesterday says, 9 the situation mere Is
more Interesting and exciting than any oat'ie
field, ana W ashngton Is full of rumorS concern,
ing the reconstruction OF the Cabinet. up 10 IL
o'clock to-day the President has not accepted
MIR. Seward s resignation, nor made the tender
of the State Department to Mr. Fessenden, nor
do we believe to any one else.
Our efforts to ascertain whether MIR. Seward 8
colleagues have rendered their designations have
not succeeded. We are unable to hear whether
a single one has yet resigned. The President
keeps his own counsel 80 exclusively that no
one has received the slightest information con
corning the manner in which he proposes I
settle the affair 1t can be of no good for the
Star to speculate in the premises, 80 we decline
publishing the rumors concerning the lmbrogho
Neither Secretary nor Assistant Secretary
Seward, have attended up t. noon to-day. 1t
is understood that they are preparing Tor an
early departure for New York.
WASHINGTON, Dec 81 it is ascertained that
the Senators who met IN caucus last week were
pledged to keep their proceedings secret, ex-
ceptlng to the President, and this they did with
more success than usually attends such delbe-
ratons. The Secretary of State, however, soon
heard of the proceedings and promptly rendered
his resignation. On Friday night the commit
toe from the caucus again visited the President,
! and remained with him AID all the members OF
the cabinet, Mr.. Seward alone being absent, tor
more than four hours The next day by noon
Secretary Chase sent in his resignation, not
merely as matter of form. but in good faith.
| 1t is not known that there was any objection to
him on the palt of the caucus. The represent
atyes were in no manner consulted with regard
to the propriety Of the action of the Senat71s
! but no com plants are made by them, there be-
! ing general acQuiescence ID their proceedings
The resolution adopted recommends partial
reconstruction of the Cabinet, bit several Sen
ator5 interpret it to mean an ultimate entire
change Of programme.
Reports are current which cannot be verified,
that all the members of the Cabinet have re-
signed. However this may be, it is believed
that none Of them will, IN the least, embarrass
the Executive in the choice of their successors.
While some Of the Senators insist that all OF
them shall be undouted Republicans, Others are
content to lcave the entire matter in the hands
of the President, 70 that he may act as best to
serve the country III It's present circumstances.
The impression that neither the resignation
of Mr. Seward nor that Of MIR. Chase has yet
been accepted by the President.
After caretul inquiry ii is believed the above
statements contain all that is reliable upon the
subject.
Tho resolution which passed the caucus re-
Celved thc unanimous vote OF the Senators pres
emf.

Special Dispatch 10 the Boston Journal.

WASHINGTON, Dec. q. The newspapers
have been busy for three days past in construc-
ting the Cabinet, bat thus far, no evidence that
any part of their work las been accepted.
Gentlemen who have returned to-day from
the army, represent that it is not demoralized
but that it is in good heart. Gen. Burnside,
like gallant soldier, assumes the full and en-
sire responsibility of the attack On the lines
beyond Frederick sbursh. If any one is to blame
he assumes the blame.
The detailed reports Of the recent NOV enents
Of the Army Of the Potomac will probably be
made in a day or two, by the Committee on the
conduct of the war.
Secretary Chases new financial plan excites
much attention.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 81. A member of the
Border State committee, appointed by the re-
cent caucus, states that in an interview the
committee had with the President yesterday,
he informed them that as to his Emancipation
Proclamation, he had acted from the belief that
it would effect good results, but if he could be
convinced to the contrary, he would modify bis
position upon that subject, his purpose being to
do the best he could under all the circumstan-
ces which surrounded him.

CAIRO, Dec. 2o-midnight. A body of rebel
cavalry variously estimated at from 1000 to
5000, made raid on the railroad three miles
this side OF Jackson, Tenn, yesterday morning
After firing on train they tore up the track
Tor a considerable distance, and burned long
tressle work.
The operator at Trenton this evening reports

The Passionless Star.

There hangs star in the western sky
Merrily blows the wind by night
1t wrinkles and glows ike an angels eye,
And the sky is blue and the snow IS white
And merrily blows the wind by night,
'Tis the star Of love that gaze on there
Merrily blows the wind by night,
And it speaks to my heart of the good and fair
That forever and ever have left my sight:
All drearily sobs the wind by night!
Some in the graveyards lie asleep
Merrily blows the wind by night.
Over them SHOWS are drifted deep,
Cold as their bones and pure and white
But merrily blows the wind by night.
And some there are whose naughty hearts
Are frozen hard with shame and sin:
No tone of music eer departs,
No ray of sunshine enters in:
Cold like the snow, but not so white
While merrily blows the wind by night.
And one there is whose gentle eyes
Seem yet to thrill me from afar;
Whose memory in my bosom lies
As the pure light of that cold star.
She loved me once-but woman is light,
Changeful and false as the snow so white
And merrily blows the wind by night
This life of ours is wild unrest
And light and shadow and Joy and wo;
And then the sod is over US pressed,
And merrily on the winds do blow.
And the self same stars that shine tonight
VIII shine on our graves when we are gone,
And the snow will cover US, tranquil and white,
While the musical winds blow merrily on.
For the sky is blue, and the snow is white
And merrily blows the wind by night
Shine on. thou beautiful star, shine on,
In thy brilliant beauty, bold and bright!
For the world in darkness waits the dawn
And merrily blows the wind by night
Let hearts grow cold that once were glad;
And eyes, once bright grow dim and sad;
And cheeks grow pale; and slow decay
And fever waste our forms away;
Yet, in thy radiant home above,
Shine on-and hear us talk of love
And bark to the wind that sings at night
To the jolly old wind that sings by night
For the sky is blue, and the snow is white
And merrily blows the wind by night.
