senator DAyard Refuses 70 take the
oath--Acceunts from Charleston.
Especial to Tribune.l
Washington, Dec. IA.
There are additional reasons for belisv-
ing Gen. Scho6eld will soon be removed
and man whose heart is with what ara
called Radicals will be put in his place.
As TO any change in Cabinet, nothing
is positively known.
Senator Bayard, of Delaware, never
having taken the anti-rebellion oath re-
quired By act Of last session, was inform
ally reminded Of the fact by the vicePres-
ident to-da, and requested to say wheth-
er he was prepared to take it, and he re-
Piled in the negative, adding if the Sen
ate, by formal vote, required him to
take it he would resign. The question
will probably be brought up tomorrow,
and there is no doubt if he keeps his
promise, Delaware will have more fitting
representative.
A most important concession has been
made to volunteer officers in the navy by
the Government Their names will be
inserted, We understand in the register in
exactly the same manner as regular nava
officers.
A letter from Morris Island says the
rebels ar, working very hard on Sullivan
Island increasing their works to silence
forts Gregg and Wagner. Rebel iron
clads occasionally show themselves, but arc
always careful to avoid fight.
The rebels are said to be very savage
and don't spare our men when they catch
them.
"Reminiscences are frequently made
from the feet and much valuable informa
tion obtained.
A joint committee viii probably be ap
pointed to consider what legislation il
necessary to enable the loyal people o
the South to restore their States to th,
Union on the basis of the President
proclamation and message. To this com
mittee will probably be referred the bill
now before Congress on the subject o
slavery and such other bills as may be 10
troauced which bear upon the genera
topic.

Yesterday afternoon a man named Charles
L. rockingham, residing on jefferson street,
near Aisquith, committed suicide by taking
strychnine. On the 2Sth Of March last he was
arrested in this city on the charge of having
forged the name of his father to two checks, on
which he obtained three hundred and fifty dol.
lars from w. T. Wyckoff, of Washington. He
was kept in the central police station until the
9th Of April, when the matter was adjusted and
he released. While he was in the police station
he was visited by his wife, who at the time was
playing theatrical engagement In Norfolk,
and he then requested her TO procure strychnine
for him, as he said he was tired Of life. A few
days since he was seen on the street, and by
some means he procured the fatal poison which
put an end to his existence. Coroner Brewer
held an inquest on the body, and the jury rem
dercd verdict in accordance with the facts.
The life Of the deceased was a checkered one.
Several years ago he got into difficulty in New
York with female, after which he made trip
to Australia. On his return he married Mrs.
Drew. After his marriage his family discoun.
tenanced him, and the forgeres were commit
ted on his father to procure funds upon which
to live. He was man of good appearance and
about thirty years OF age.-Bdlt San, An.

GLORIOUS NEWS!
sedgwick ha s Pierced
Lees Line an d Form
ed a Junctio n with
Hooker.
All Communication betw cen
Lees Army and Rich
mond Cut by
Stoneman.
RICHMOND PAPERS ACKNOWLEDGE IT
GENERAL PAXTON KILLED.
Stonewall Jackson Sc
verely Wounded.
A, P, HILL BADLY WOUNDED,
Hooker has Captured Between
Ten and Twelve Thousand
Prisoners.

The news from the army continues to be
glorious, rumors to the contrary notwithstand-
ing.
There are reports in the city that sedgwick,
with his whole force, has recrossed the Kappa
hammock. There Is not word of truth in the
statement.
Yesterday scdgwick moved against the rear
of Lees right, which was commanded by
s,onewalI jackson before he was wounded,
and pierced it and formed a junction with
Hooker's main army.
Severe fighting, with great loss to the enemy,
was the result of the manGuvre.
By this movement of course Sedgwick aban.
doned the works Of Fredericksburg, which are
of no military value to Hooker in the execution
of the programme he is evidently performing.
The latter is satisfied with his position.'
We not only have positive information from
Chancclloryillc of the thorough execution of
Stoneman's work in cutting the railroad and
telegraph wires between Lees army and Rich
mond, but also the common road bridges over
Pamunkey river.
We have the authority of distinguished Off
GERS who have arrived here from the field, that
although the fighting has been severe thus far,
that severer battles are yet to be fought.
Of
nounce that the Yankees have cut all the rail-
roads and telegraph lines and destroyed all the
bridges on the travelled roads between that
city and Lees army; that in consequence, they
were without any other news than such was
brought by horsemcu.
The same papers state, at last accounts, that
the fighting was terrible, and their losses Sc
vere that Gen. Paxton was killed, Stonewall
jackson was severely wounded, and Gen. \. P.
Hill was also badly wounded.
In addition to the above there are many facts
which we do not choose to state going to show
that the "situation" is decidedly to the ad-
vantage Of Hooker.
Those who came up from Charlottesville,
Falmouth, Fredericksburg, and Aqua Creek,
estimate the number Of prisoners captured by
our army, and seen at the different points
around, to be between ten and twelve thousand.
They are wrctchedly dressed and half starved,
and many of them are as young as sixteen and
seventeen years of age, while many others arc
as old as Glty and sixty years.
They seem to be delighted to get where they
can obtain something to eat. Many Of them
ask for meat, declaring that they have not had
any for a long time.
They confirm the statement of the Richmond
papers, that the rebel losses in officers and men
have been very great.
Daily national Republican., 1863-05-06
StIlIthey Come.

Yesterday evening eight hundred and forty
eight rebel prisoners arrived at the foot of
Sixth street wharf, having been sent up by Gen.
Hooker. This morning, about daylight, an
other boat arrived with three hundred and fifty
more. They were handed over to the Provost
Marshal, Capt. Todd. They appear to be in a
very dIlapdated condition. many are without
shoes, and others have not sufficient clothing
to hide their nakedness. If these captured
rebels are the flower of the rebel army, (and
Of course they are,) secessia presents truly a
miserable condition.
