thanks Of Congress to Major Gen. Rosecrans
and the officers and men under him, for gal.
liant and good conduct at Murfreesboro', Tenn.
Mr. GRIMES said, so far as the information
had reached us, the exploit Of Gen. Rosecrans
was unexampled In the military annals OF the
country. He did not think there were three
commanders on earth who would have per.
formed such a gallant exploit. But the official
report ls not yet before us, and he thought q
resolution of this kind ought not TO be passed
without more consideration, or we shall have
large numbers Of resolutions offered for every
battle fought. He chose to make the point in
this case. He moved to refer II to the Nilitary
Committee.
Mr.. WILSON said. he was perfectly willing
to have II referred. He agreed with what tho

Pluck Of the Army.

A private letter from an officer in
the Army of the Potomac, who has
seen all the variety of service that
force has experienced for eighteen
months past, has these sturdy words
"The military sky is lowering. The
coming summer will seem like hot
work (; but we are in good condition
and full of hope and confidence. Small
disasters are Of no account. We shall

A Gallant Deed.

In the recent movement of Stone
mans cavalry the advance was led
by Lieut.. Paine Of the 1st Maine cav.
airy. Being separated by consider
able distance from the main body, he
encountered unexpectedly superior
force of rebel cavalry. and his whole
party were taken prisoners. They
were hurried off as rapidly as posi-
bic to get them out of our advancing
force, and in crossing q rapid and
deep stream, Lieut.. Henry, command
ing the rebel force, was swept off his
horse. As none of his men seemed to
think or care any thing about saving
him, his prisoner Lieut.. Paine. leaped
of his horse, seized the drowning man
by the collar, swan ashore with him,
and saved his life, thus literally cap
turing his captor. He was sent to
Richmond with the rest of the prison.
ers. and the facts being made known
to Gen. Fitz Hugh Lee, he wrote
statement of them to Gen. Winder,
the provost marshal of Richmond, who
ordered the instant release Of Lieut..
Paine, without even parole, promise or
condition, and, We presume, with the
compliments Of the confederacy. He
arrived in Washington on Saturday
last. This act of generosity as well
as justice must command our highest
admiration. There is some hope for
men who can behave in such man.
ner. -r-..
But the strangest part of the story
is yet to come. Lieut.. Paine on ar
riving at Washington learned that
the officer whose life he had thus gal.
lantly saved had since been taken
prisoner by our forces, and had just
been confined in the Old Capital pris-
on. At the last heard of him he
was OH his way to Gen. Martindale's
headquarters to obtain a pass to visit
his beneficiary and benefactor. Such
are the vicissitudes of war. We
could not help thinking, when we
heard this story, of the profound OBJ
servation of Mrs. Gimp; "Sich is life.
vich likevays is the hend of hall things
heartily" We leave it to casuists to
determine whether, when these two
gallant soldiers meet upon the battle
field, they should fight like enemies
or embrace like Christians. For our
part, we do not believe their swords
any the less sharp, nor their zeal any
the less determined, for this hap-haz-
ard exchange Of soldierly courtesy.
