news of the bridge burning reached this place, these cowardly traitors boasted that the time had then come when Union men could talk and act, and that they intended to do both. It is now difficult, we are told, to find a Union man anywhere in the neighborhood of Harrison ! We had suspected for some time that this "Union" or rebellion sentiment, which held out so persistently after the June election, had its origin in cowardice and villainy, and if any further proof is wanting to establish the truth of our conjectures, the conduct of these pusillanimous outlaws, since the late outbreak in East Tennessee, and the arrival of Southern troops in Chattanooga, furnishes it in profuse abundance. There is no fight in them; it is not their trade. They would doubtless be more successful at robbing hen-roosts and meat-houses; and will, in all probability, try their hands at that game next ! Indeed many of them have a successful experience to begin with.--Chattanooga Gaz. and Adv., 23d inst.

t there is no doubt but that the difficulty will be settled without a war between England and the United States. It concludes thus: "The affair is complicated. Time alone can unravel it, and the utmost prudence on the part of the Administration will be necessary to avoid a war which may involve us with more than one European Power, while we are engaged in a life and death struggle for the preservation of the Union itself." Gen. Scott's return. From the Washington Star, of the 23d inst, we clip the following in relation to the purpose which induces old "Fuss and Feathers" to return so soon to the United States: The fact that Gen. Scott has so soon returned to the United States (in the Arago) is understood by his immediate friends here to have been the result of his belief that he possesses information, concerning the state of the affair of the Trent on the other side of the water, of importance to our Government; and therefore hastens here with it.

$50 Reward for my Servants, John and black well. John is about twenty-three years old and a carpenter by trade; black and not stout. He left my residence at the corner of Clay and 10th streets, Sunday morning, the 23d instant. I have no doubt he is in the employment of some of the companies as a free man, in or near the city, or he may have left it. Black-well left my farm, in the county of Chesterfield, ten miles above Richmond. He is 15 years old; a bright mulatto; he has large, full eyes, thick underlips, spare made knees, and ankles inclined inward. He left on the 13th instant; he is a house-servant. I will give twenty-five for one, or fifty for the two, delivered to me in Richmond at my residence, corner Clay and 10th streets, or in any jail, so that I can get them. fe 28--6t* G. A. W. Taylor,

on the courage of Gen. Huger, but that officer owed it to himself, and to the historic name he bore, to vindicate himself from the charges which rested against him. The resolution, as originally offered, was supported by Messrs. Lyons, Miles, Bonham, and others, but they disclaimed that they participated in the discussion as the apologists of the conduct of Gen. Huger. The question being called, a yea and any vote was had on the amendment of Mr. Foote, which resulted as follows: year 23, nays 44. The resolution of Mr. Lyons was then passed to its engrossment and, after a third reading adopted. Mr. Boteler, of Va., presented joint resolutions tendering the thanks of Congress to Gen. T. J. Jackson, and the officers and man under his command, for the distinguished gallantry displayed by them in the battles of McDowell, Front Royal, Winchester, Cross Keys, Port Republic, and on the Chickahominy, Passed unanimously. Mr. Chambliss, of Va., offered a resolution instr
