months upon the plan of that just completed
B -s TIE sKIRNIsH TOWARD FAIRFAX.
The affair of the outposts yesterday was
premeditated. The Cameron dragons, eight
hundred strong, started early in the morn
ing toward Fairfax Court House with the
design of capturing the rebel pickets. They
swept the country from Hunters Mills to
within half mile of Germantown, three
miles beyond Fairfax. All the picksts were
driven in save thirteen belonging to the LIST
North Carolina and Stewards Virginia Cav
airy, who were surprised in q log house. 1t
was defended BY two Companies OF Cavalry
and an hundred men, who fred from the
woods as the party advanced upon the house,
whence there was firing also. Five hundred
shots were fred before the doors were burst
In and capture effected. One of our Captains
was killed and one Sergeant wounded. One
rebel was left dead in the house and one
prisoner wounded Later in the evening a
dash was made into Fairfax, and three pris-
ouers with four horses and wagon load of
provisions captured Due Be Chartres was
with the expedition, and behaved with great
gallantry.
THE OREGON SENATORIAL CASE.
Trnmbull's minority report upon Stafk's
case contends that power must exist to
exclude persons of infamous or treason
able character, even If their credentials and
qualifications are regular. Otherwise, If q
murderer or felon were appointed Senator, Il
would be necessary to bring him out Of
prison into the Senate chamber under charge
of sheriff, swear him in and then e1psl
him. BE thinks also, that the power of eT.
pulsion only applies to acts committed sftel
election, does not discuss evidence againsi
Stark but the constitutional power to exclude
him. Nine afldavits, signed by 6fty-on'
citizens Of WaltonamAh county, Oregon
charge Stark with outrageous declarations o
disloyaliy, such as If he could sell his prop.
erty he would go South and fight for Jeff
Davis; also, that he publicly drank the health
of Beauregsrd after the battle Of Bnll Rull.

MoRE on rHE FINANCE

1t is doubtful whether the Senate Finance
Committee will consent to any scheme Of ir-
redeemable paper currency. The opinion
seems to be that It is the worst evil in the
category, and must be avoided. The COM
mittee have reached no conclusion, but this
is as near as possible to the present feeling.
ENARcIPATIOE IN TIE DISTRICT.
Morrill, has prepared 3 bill to be reported
to, nd probably from, the Senate District Of
Columbia Committee, providing for the
immediate emancipation of all slaves in the
District with compensation limited to an
average of three hundred dollars a slave to
loyal masters. Claims with proofs Of value
and loyalty to be iled with three Commits
sioners within ninety days. The C5nmis-
siOners to report within nine months, to have
power to examine slaves as witnesses, There
are three thousand slaves here, perhaps half
belonging to masters who win swear them
selves loyal.

who are fully acquainted with the facts of
the occurrence which we sought to report in
Saturday mornings paper under the head of
Matrimonial Difficulty" J" &C., that great in
justice was done 10 the husband therein
mentioned; that instead Of his having shown
any disposition to compromise his wife, he
paid largely out of his pocket to have the
matter adjusted, which he succeeded in do
ing; that the woman with whom he was
with is sregarded as respectable, and that he
was engaged at the time in discharging q
dnty imposed upon him BY virtue of an Of
fetal capacity. We took it for granted in
making the statement that we were correctly
informed, and very much regret that We
we're led into 80 unfortunate misrepresen-
tation of facts. We hope this relraction will
be satisfsctory to the parties interested.

Tribute Of RelpeCt.

RALrHRLIA ADA PHILLIPS died after severe
illness of thirty six hours, of congestion Of the
brain, on the evening OF Thursday, the nth Of
April, at II O'Clock. Only daughter Of John W.
aud Angelina d. Phillips.
RALPHELIA was but IL years, . months, and
10 days old when she died-a mere child In
years-yet she appeared more like q person Of
mature years, so quiet and thoughtful was her
demeanor, and so careful was she OF the feel.
ings of others. By her amiable disposition and
many lovely traits of character, she endeared
herself to all who formed her acquaintance.
Uniformly sfectionate to her parents, and ter
der Of the feelings of her young brothers, no
wonder then that the affections OF a fond father
and devoted mother should cluster around their
only daughter. But alas! the light of the house
has fed: the beautiful and delicate flower has
faded ere 1t had scarcely began to bloom. She
WAS indeed too pure for this world OF sin and
sorrow, so she was transplanted to more con-
genial cline. The angels have taken her pure
spirit to their own beautiful realm, to add an
other to their number in celebrating anthems
Of praise sweet as the melody of Eden. Peace
to thy memory, gentle RALPnELIA! A.
