MONTGOMERY BLAIR, N. r.:
Dear Sir: Some days ago, understood yor

whether he will occupy bis seat 10 Cor gre 9,

pounded of what believe will be best tor the
country, and It 10, tina. be will come here, pu.
hts military commission 10 my hands; take
bis seat: 60 into caucus with our friends :
abide the nominations and thus aid to crpaD.
re Hous Of Representatives which will
really support the Government In the var. In
me result shall be the election Of himself a.
Speaker, let him serve in tha. position il not
let him retake his commission aud return 10
the army for the country. This will heal q
dangerous schism, for him. It will relieve
him from dangerous poei.ion in misuuder
standing. ~ l think he is in danger of beine
permanently separated from those With whom
only be can ever have real sympalhy-the
sincere opponents Of slavery. II will be a
mistake ii he shall allow the provocations
offered him BY insincere time-s- tvers to drive
him from The house of his own building. He

quite enough to occupy all his time. He il

this line be can serve both the country and
himself more probably than be could a q

The Cavalry Expedition under
GriersOu and Smith.

New YORK, Feb. 15.-The following dis
patch from Chattanooga 18th Is interesting:
The cavalry expedition under Grierson and
Smith crossed the country from Corinth,
moving South. 1t is understood that these
columns are intended to act in conjunction,
the one to attack, the other to cut off Folks
retreat and disperse the cavalry of Forrest,
reported as securing Central and Northern
Mississippi. There is no reason to doubt
though beyond this enterprise the combina-
tion are merely conjectural, but that great
flank movement on Johnston's army is in
tended. The army at Chattanooga is by
this time in motion for Tunnel Hill and
Dalton. Its movements may have been de-
layed by circumstances unknown to us, but
it is under marching orders.
