Coon FEELING-Last night in Virginia upon
the reception of the particulars confirming the
capture of Mrs. Jefferson Davis, and her traitor,
all the mud-sills felt good, and general raid on
Bourbon was the result. The chivs. felt as Ar
temus would observe, 20 unkimmon SICK and
only a few showed themselves to the jubilant
Yanks, who had general glorifcation. Some
even went as far as to say that they didn't care
d-n if the First Families of Virginia didn't
like it, and we actually heard dilapidated old
abolitionist declare, that it right to violate
the neutrality of Jeffersons petticoats, and cap
ture the head of the whole Southern Confederacy
In fact many things unpleasant for a heightened
Southern gentleman to hear, were said by the

CURRY, OF ALABAMA, AT THE HEAD OF THE
AssAssISATIoN.-A special dispatch to the New
York Tribune of May 10th, says The War De-
partment has laid before it bill introduced in
the rebel Congress by J. L. NJ. Curry, of Ala
bama which was concocted for the purpose of
vindicating the starvation of prisoners of war;
the murder of black soldiers, burning of North
ern cities, and finally the assassination of the
President of the United States and his Cabinet
The preamble sets forth in great detail, and with
needless iteration, the action of the United States
Government in declaring all slaves in rebel dis
trcts free, and speaks most bitterly of the proc
lamation of President -denouncing it as
unprincipled and inhuman. Then follows this
resolution
- Resolred. BY the House of Representatives
of the Confederate States, the Senate concurring,
That we do adhere to the opinion that the So
called emancipation proclamation of the Presi-
dent of the United States, and the enlistment of
negro slaves in the several Federal armies now
opposed to us, are not among the acts of legiti
mate warfare, but properly classed among
such acts the right to put to death prisoners
of war without special cause the right to use
poisoned weapons and the right to assassinate
and if persisted in they will justify this Govern
ment in the adoption of measures of retaliation"
The Endorsements the paper go to show
that the resolution was read first and second
time and made the special order for Il secret ses-
sion on February lG, 1864.

SANITARY CoMMIssIoN.-Th officers of the
Sanitary Commission for this coast are still stir
ring themselves to furnish aid to the sick and
wounded soldiers of army, who still in
need of assistance to noursh and assist them in
reaching their homes. The Executive Commit
tee have addressed circular to the friends of
the Commission on this coast. which concludes
as follows:
While our cause is thus rising, as the in
Heaven, victorious over morning clouds, 1t is
natural that should relax little the tension
of our anxiety for the country. Bat we should
remember that while the war is ended, the effects
Of the ,car continue. The Army of the Potomac
is going home But there at least hundred
thousand soldiers sick and wounded, who cannot
join that triumphant march. They need, if pos
sible, more than ever, some kind hand to bind
their wounds and assuage their tears. If the
war is over, and blood no longer flows, we may
he glad that the dark catalogue of the sorrows
of war is not to be heightened out; but let US
not in thoughtless gladness, forget those who
bear these sorrows still, and through whose
wounds the country is healed.
WE CoycUR-The Nerada Gazette is respon-
sible for the following sensible
Succession. Our people fred no guns over
the news of the capture of Jeff Davis but it is
proposed that on the day appointed for his exc
cution at the National Capital we have celebra-
ton here, hang JEFF Davis, and such other prom
incnt traitors as may be executed with him, in
efiigy, and, after they have swung reasonable
length of time cut them down, place them in
rough collins, form funeral procession, with
leading Copperheads of the city impressed as
pall-bearers, and band playing the Rogue
March by way of dirgc, them inferred in
some suitable place, and place black boards with
suitable inscriptions over them. This solemn
celebration could be conducted very quietly, and
we have no doubt it would have very salutary
effect. As the day of jeff s execution is proba-
bly'not very far distant, it may be well to pre-
pare for the proper observance of it.
