During the battle of Olustee, Fla Jerome
Dupoy, Of COD, 7th G. ", was shot in the
back Of the head and killed, evidently by
some onein our own ranks, and suspicion fsii
upon substitute for drafted man, named
John Rawley, of the same company, WHO had
a Quarrel with Dupoy and been stabbed oy
him. Sergeant Broes charged Rowley with
the crime, when he confessed, and is report
ed to have made the following statement:
"Weli, Sergeant, I did kill Dupoy; he stab
bed me at st. Helena; I swore if ever got
a chance I'd kill him; l had one at Olustee.
and I killed him. Nor is he the only man
I have killed or caused to die. l cut out
the entrails of sailor on . gunboat, since
this war begun; and killed by stsbbing, a
man in New York, which caused me to leave

the only one that ever troubled me. Since
the battle have dreaded night, for they
are horrible nights. When on picket,

He was of course arrested and will be pun

General Steele's Co lumn.

The later advices from the Red River by
way Of Vicksburg, would seem to show that
the Cincinnati telegram to the morning pa.
pers, announcing the capture Of Shreveport
by Gen. Steele, was without foundation.
The most that we can expect from the
column of Gen. Steele, row that General
Banks hrs fallen back to Grand AEcore, is,
that hearing somehow of the disaster that
had befallen US at Pleasant Hill, he would
abandon his march TO Shreveport, and re-
treat TO Camuen, Ark, where he was last
heard from) and there, with his communi-
cations secure, await further Developments
from Gen Banks. 1t is possible Banks
may have succeeded in sending q courier to
Gen. Steele communicating the result of
the fight at Pleasant Hill, and warning him
of the Unexpectedly great strength Of the
enemy-or it may be, that such Information
may have reached him through other chan.
nels. In that event the only prudent course
left him would be to fall back. TIC push on
to the rebel capital on the Red River IN.
der such circumstances, would be but TO
push on to destruciioa. The part General
Steele was to perform in this great Red
River :" hunt for negroes and cotton, va.

port-but As Banks, after . bloody battle,
failed to get within 80 or 40 maes of tina,

.ly ought not to be- expected to perform

portion of which we publish this morning.
is a good sample of the proceedings in Con
gress this session. These scenes OF contu
sion and disorder have been disgracefully
frequent during the winter. But there Is
also another point in which the debate on
last FRIDAY is characteristic of the present
House. The extreme sensitiveness OF GER
tain members whenever anything is said
about frauds in the Treasury or other de-
partments of the government, and the anx
iety manifested in certain quarters to cover
up and conceal the delinquencies limited IL
or openly charged is also peculiar feature
in the proceedings Of the present Congress.
No sooner dees a member intimate that
there is "a screw loose" somewhere, than
three or four patriotic members OF the Adj
ministration party spring to their feet, call
him liar, order him to take bis seat, or
perhaps move that he be considered ian
unworthy member Of the House." For
this kind of business they draw their reg
ular pay and mileage, and have carte blanche
for all the little pickings and perquisites
that are Lying around loose" in WASH
ington City.
The impression has fastened itself upon
the public mind that all is not just as il
should be in the Treasury department.
The manifest anxiety to avoid investiga
ton will not tend very much to weaken OF
remove that opinion. Neither will it tend
to increase the confidence of the people in
a political party which went into pow
er under profuse promise of retrench
ment and extravagant claims of honesty
