but the women and children of the seceded States. Mr. Trumbull briefly defended the principle of the original bill as taking only the property of those whose persons could not be reached, but would be content with Mr. Sherman's proposition, if the Senate should prefer it. Mr. King's amendment was then rejected — years 7, nays 82. The question recurred on Mr. Sherman's amendment, and it was adopted — yeas 20, have 11, as follows: Yeas — Messrs, Anthony, Browning, Chandler, Clark, Cowan, Davis, Dixon, Doolittle, Fessenden, Foot, Foster, Grimes, Hale, Henderson, Howard, Hows, Lane of Indiana, Nesmith, Sherman, Simmons, Sumner, Ten Eyck, Thompson, Willey, Wilson of Massachusetts, Wright--25.

Several thousand dollars, together with twenty-two bales of cotton, were subscribed in Houston, Texas, in a few hours, towards securing a competence to the widow and family of Gen. A. S. Johnston. The North Carolina State Convention has created the office of Lieutenant Governor, and provided that the Governor elected at the coming election in August next shall take his seat in September, until which time Gov. Clark will occupy the Executive chair. Captain Thomas Leeds, of the Orleans Light Horse, died at Jackson, Miss., on the 23d ult.

f commissary stores, from which the Federal army are now drawing their rations. He says, further, that he cut a canal six miles long around the island from above, four miles of which was through a heavy forest, and sawed off the trees four feet under water. He reports his capture of troops to be fragmentary portions of seven regiments, namely: The 1st Alabama, Colonel Stedman. Col. Alex Brown's regiment, Tennessee. Colonel Baker's, Alabama, Tennessee, and Mississippi. Col. Clark's Tennessee. Col. Marsh Walker's Arkansas, 40th Confederate regiment. Col. Smith's Arkansas. Col. Terry's battalion, Arkansas. The total number taken is not far from eighteen hundred. He describes our guns as being but indifferently spiked; but we may say the same of Yankee work in this respect. Modern appliances for the removal of spikes are so ingenious that a single night or day will suffice to withdraw any number, and this fact is therefore no reasonable indic

this brave, upright, and able man. Another gallant and able soldier and Captain was lost to the service of the country, when Brigadier-General Gladden, commanding 1st Brigade, Withers's Division, 3d Army Corps, died from a severe wound received on the 5th instant, after having been conspicuous to his whole corps and the army for courage and capacity. Major-General Cheatham, commanding 1st Division, 1st Corps, was slightly wounded, and had three horses shot under him. Brigadier-General Clark, commanding 2d Division of the 1st Corps, received a severe wound, also on the 1st day, which will deprive the army of his valuable services for some time. Brigadier-General Hindman, engaged in the outset of the battle, was conspicuous for a cool courage efficiently employed in leading his men ever into the thickest of the fray, until his horse was shot under him, and he was unfortunately so severely injured by the fall that the army was deprived, on the following day, of his c

t know whether or not be should vote for this present measure, but he believed that Congress had the power to pass confiscation bills, and it was the duty of Congress to do it. Pending the Consideration of the subject the House adjourned. "Ion," of the Baltimore Sun, writes from Washington (May 28) as follows: The prospect is that the Milict confiscation and emancipation project will be pressed through the House next week. The former project will, perhaps, receive the support of the border slave State members of the House, as well as of the free State members. The latter project will unite the votes of the Northern States in the House. The scheme is admirably framed. The Senate, it is supposed, will concur with the House in their bill, though they would not bring the moderate scheme of Senators Clark and Collamer to a vote. Thus the emancipation policy to regard to the States is likely to be soon inaugurated, although the Hunter proclamation has been repudiated.

should be put on cotton. That was the great source of the rebellion, and had been claimed as King, and now that we have got his majesty down we should keep our foot on him. He claimed that the people of the West, especially of Michigan, paid a full proportion of the tax, and would pay cheerfully. This tax on cotton would also be a burden on France and England, who had been inimical to the United States in the present contest. The discussion was continued at length by Messrs. Sherman, Clark, Simmons, Harris, Howe, and others. Mr. Sherman, (Rep.,) of Ohio, moved to reconsider the vote rejecting Mr. Anthony's amendment, yesterday, to lay a tax of one-half cent per pound on cotton. Reconsidered — Yeas 24, nays 15.
