The Star says the cavalry expedition
sent out from Vienna last Thursday, under
command Of Colonel Lowell, returned to
that place yesterday after having visited
Leesburg and Upperville. Near Upper

ners, twenty five horses, and large guam
tity Of wool, tobacco, and other contra
band goods, picked up on the route.
Accompanying the Presidents message
to-day were the following:
HOE. NJ. BLAIR-MY DEAR SIR: Some
days ago understood you to say that
your brother, General Frank Blair, desires
to be guided BY my wish as TO whether he
will occupy his seat in Congress or remain
in the field My wish, then, is comprised
Of what 1 believe will be hest for the
country, and it is that he will come here,
put his military commission in my hands,
aud take his seat, going into caucus with our
friends, sbide by the nominations held, and
elect the nominees, and thus aid to organ
ize House Of Representatives, which will
really support the Government IN the war;
if the result shall be the election of him
self as Speaker, let him serve in that po-
sition; if not, let him retake his commits
sion and return to the army for the coun-
try. This will heal dsDgerousTsChism for
him. 1t will relieve him from dangerous
position, in Misunderstanding as think.
de is in danger Of being permanently
separated from those, with whom only he
can ever have real sympsthy-the sin
cere opponents Of slavery. It viii be
mistake, if be shall allow the provOoatioBs
offered him by insiuoere time-serveTs 10
drive him from the house Of his own
building. he is young yet. He has abun-
dsnt tslents-quite enough TO occupy all
his time, without deyoting any to temper.
He is rising in military skill and useful
ness. His recent appointment to the COM
mand Of q corps by one go competent to
judge as General Sherman proves this
In that line be can serve both the country
and himself more probably than as
member Of Congress upon the floor Of the
House.
The foregoing is what l would say if
Frank Blair was my brother instead Of
yours.

The condition Of the released Union

which results from starvation, Of which
many have died. John Oliver, Sergeant
Of Company K, S9th Ohio regiment, a ma
tive Frankfort, Ross county, fell into sb-
Solute insanity, and died shortly after
reaching the Baltimore hospital. Men
weighing, when in health, from l80 10 200
pounds, are reduced through want of food
alone to 100 pounds. One Of the men re-
ported 10 visitor that out of $50 sick

To keep from freezing entire, they we're

FELLOW MENBERs OF TIE CRY COUNCIL -

In this hour Of parting, after four years Of ssr-
vice on my part to say, that In proportion to
the Qualification, natural to all men. Of hahn 2
esteemed worthy by my fsIIoW-members to
NIL the highest position in the Council, recog.
nized by the municipal law Of our City, il has
been my firm determination to so fulfil the
obligations incumbent upon me as to insure
the interest, welfare, and prosperity Of all
classes Of the body polite.
Each member Of the board whom I have
the honor to address, as well as myself,
were selected to perform the duties Of our
respective positions towards the whole City,
not in districts OF wards bounded by geo
graphicallines within the same, but looking
with comprehensive glanoo to the advsn
tages to be gained by legislative action 10
sll it's parts, and to administer the affairs Of
the city in such manner 80 to oonduce to
attain the greatest good to the greatest num-
Der. II, in our parting to day, We carry
away with as any consciousness Of our short
eomipgs in the discharge Of those duties, We
must bear in mind that Ee have passed
through two years Of the municipal affairs Of
cur city unparolled in its history, aud in
the history Of our country. Commencing in
anxiety and gloom, by reason Of the rebel
lion in the Southern States, with added re-
sponsibilities, and constantly increasing
necessities to provide for, am
convinced that this Council has avoided all
unnecessary expense in its appropriations Of
money for the several improvements already
made to Our beautiful city, as well ss for
those projected.
Let as wish for our successors q more pro-
pitious snd less evsntful term of office, q
restored Government, the rebellion suppress
ed, the footprints Of treason both North and
South oblitsrsted, and that rightful soVer-
eighty may draw its benefeent wand over
every foot Of Southern soil deseoratsd by its
foul and unhoIy touch.
l thank you, one and all, for your cordial
support and friendly cooperation with me in
this important branch Of the city govern
ment, and bid you farewell, and wish you
much happiness and prosperity in the future.
