Chastised by Wo~san.

. A correspondent furnishes ts With the
following account of the chastisement in
inflicted upon an honorable " Senator
by lady whom he had grossly insultea.
We are informed that he profered her
$50 if she would not expose him:
MEssRs. EDIToRs: In late paper al
lusion was made to certain honorable
Senator" well-known in Washington for
his gallantry and devotion to the fair SEX
Being cognlzant of some of the facts of
this particular case, will state them for
the edifcation of your readers. A GER
tain lady of my acquaintance, whom he
had worried for year past with half
promises of Government patronage, met
him, by his own solicitation, at the house
which has the honor of registering his
name as boarder. els it true said
Miss S -, "that Congress has made an
appropriation for an additional number
OF ladies' to be employed in the Depart
ments?" at5gr
"Oh, me-" answered the General with
one of his blandest smiles, 81 merely
stated to your informant that such would
probably be the case. Now, if you will
walk into my room we will talk the mat
ter over. and perhaps l may be able to
secure for you some portion of this pat
ronage." The lady looked him fairly in
the face. It required no stretch of the
imagination to understand his meaning.
Being as tall as himself, she gave him a
box, first on one side of his head, then
upon the other, until his ears tingled with
the excitement. Having sufficiently dem
onstrated her ability TO resent insult, his
tormentor left him standing upon the
stone steps of the 3" Washington quite
crestfaflen. Our Senator having prefaced
this interview with many fair speeches,
no doubt expected different denohshsnt.
The cream of the joke was, that glancing
at the opposite side, he recognized friend
and acquaintance who had witnessed the
whole scene. Miss s., the lady al
luded to. is music teacher, and is very
estimable woman. a @ 7astt#
We opine that Congressman, in their
intercourse with the opposite sex, will
hereafter be more upon their guard, and
care less to have their ears boped IN pub

In strong position there, and that hi
forces were concentrated there. Gen
Grant therefore convinced himself tha
1T would be impossible for him to driv,
Lee from this position or reach the Soutl
Anna. His flank movement, therefore
had failed in its object, and on the nigh
of the goth, Gen. Grant was obliged tc
withdraw his army, to- recross to tn,
North side of the North Anna and te
abandon his intention Of reaching tn,
South Anna. On the morning of the
9th while our army moved down the
North side of the Pamunky, Gen. Breck
lnrldges division was sent to move down
on the South side of the stream to Han
over Court House, to act as corps OF
observation; and brigade of cavalry war
sent still further on on the Piping Tree
road
Beauregard for Richmond, Lee for Wash
80 inyton.
But Gen. Lees army remains at Han
over junction. The task before him is
to defeat and destroy our army if he can,
but to save Richmond, in any event. 1t
is believed at the rebel capital by those
who have the best means of knowing,
that he will leave Richmond to be de-
Tended by Gen. Beauregard and the 30, 600
troops that are there under his orders, and
will move himself, with 5000 troops,
toward Washington. You say this is
audacious. Audaciousi The rebels must
be audacious now. unless they intend to
be defeated. Audscity alone can save
them. This whole campaign has been
marked on their part, by audaeity, of
which the intelligent readers of the
World will supply the incidents. What
is the rebellion itself but an audacious
attempt to overthrow q will not the best
government on earth, for under such
government the rebellion would not have
taken plsce) the inildest and most pater-
nal government on earth2
ANOTHER ROLE FOR Att.
But seriously it is believed at Richmond
that the dsfences of the city are such that
Gen. Beauregard's troops eat hold it,
and can stand siege of some weeks, per-
haps for months. The city is provision
ed for siege It is believed also that if
Gen. Lee does move on Washington, that
he can either capture that city, or at least
cause Gen, Grants army to be withdrawn
for it's defense. BY others, however, per
baps equally well informed, 1t is said that
GEN. Lees orders are to wait at Hanover
Junction until Gen. Grants army has ad-
vanced to the Chickahominy. and then to
interpose the rebel army between Grant
and the Pamunky and attack the latter
in rear, while Beanregsrd will attack from
the front. IF in this case the fate of
Gen. Grants army would depend upon
The numerical strength which Lee and
can bring into the field. And
#, in the encounter, Gen. Grant should
not be victorious. Richmond would be |
saved; but where would our army be?

THEIR PLAN OF ACTION.
(From the N. Y. World.)

sa BALTIMORE, May 81.
] These people who. when the war broke
out, believed it would only be little
affair Of sixty or ninety days, who have
deluded themselves with the oft exploded
fables of the starvation and exhaustion
of the rebels, and who have educated
themselves into the belief that the rebel
lion is at its last gasp-such people may
amuse themselves now by believing that
because General Grants army is within
eighteen miles OF, Richmond, therefore
the campaign against that city is virtually
over, and that the hero of Vicksburg has
little else to do than to enter the streets
of the rebel capital in triumph. But
Intelligent people, men who do not wish
to deceive others, nor to be themselves
deceived, people who have watched the
progress of the war, and studied it's de-
velopments in the light of history-sueh
people honor Gen. Grant and his gallant
army, for the success which has up to this
time attended his efforts, and feel that
there is good reason to hope, now that
he has abandoned the overland route and
adopted the line marked out by General
Mcclellan, that the great object of the
campaign will be attained But at the
same time they see that there is abun-
dant ground for the most serious appre-
tensions of possible disaster. At this
moment, therefore, when the eyes of all
intelligent and thoughtful men are turned
toward Gen. Grants army, with hopes.
bat also with anxious solicitude, it may
not be out of place to communicate some
facts in relation to the subject which l
have learned to- day, from sources not usu-
ally accessible.
THE REBELS EXPECTED TO SEE GRANT
WHERE HE is.
According to the accounts which I re-
ceive, there is neither trepidition nor ex-
ultation in the minds Of the great rebel
leaders at Richmond. They are aware
of the gravity of the situation; they are
calm, and their calmness is not that of
despair. They protest. to believe-I need
not say that-they do believe, that they
have good grounds to be satisfied with
the Situation as it now exists. If you
will refer to my letters as far back as april
+ IA, you will see it is there stated that
even at that early day the rebels believed
that when Gen. Grant moved toward Rich
mond, it would be by the Peninsula route.
Even the elaborate work that was being
expended at that time in fortifying CuI-
pepper Court House, SO as to- make it a
vast depot for the supply of our army,
could not make them have so mean an
opinion Of General Grants military judg-
ment, as TO believe that he would attempt
an overland campaign. They zee that
