Agreed to. The Speaker announced that he had received information that the Senate was without a quorum for the transaction of business and that body had adjourned over until 12 o'clock to-morrow. Some discussion then up on a motion to adjourn, in which it was maintained by Messrs.

A glorious Confederate victory. In the language of Gen. Lee's gratifying dispatch, of the 31 of May, to President David, "We have again to thank Almighty God for a great victory." This grand and important triumph was achieved on Saturday. Gen Lee says in the beginning of his dispatch. "Yesterday Gen. Jackson penetrated to the rear of the enemy; and drove him to within one mile of Chancellorsville. This morning the battle was renewed." He (the enemy) was dislodged from all his positions around Chancellorsville and driven back towards the Rappahannock, over which he is now retreating." Many prisoners were captured. Gen. Lee states that the enemy's loss was heavy, and as he was in the act of retreating, it is to be hoped was still further to be increased. Our loss is killed and wounded, of course, must be considerable in such an engagement, but was much less than that of the enemy. The whole country will be distressed to learn that Gen. Jackson is seriously wounded. The praye
but cooler counsel prevailed. The military authorities asserted that they were the proper tribunal to decide upon the enormity of the crime. Accordingly, a military commission will at once be convened. Before this reaches the eyes of the leader through the medium of print it is likely the sentence of the culprit will have been announced and put into execution. To escape the sentence of death is not probable. The few facts that we have gained in relation to the personal history of Dr. David M Wright are briefly these: He is a man midway between fifty and sixty years, of a tall, commanding stature, hair long and black, slightly interspersed with gray. He studied medicine in one of the Northern colleges, and returned to North Carolina, his native State, to practice. He met with considerable success at Edenton, where, by the dint of perseverance, he amassed a great deal of property in hand and negroes. Since the war he has lost considerable of the last species of proper

inst the flag of Spain under the various "patriot flags," was done by Americans in American vessels, commanded by American officers, built, armed and equipped in American ports, openly and without even any attempt at disguise. The present Admiral David Porter, who has burned so many towns and houses on the Mississippi, and who has written such very bombastic reports, served in one of these patriot cruisers, called the Guerrero, under command of his uncle, Capt. John Porter (his father, Commodore David-Porter), who was formerly, if not at the very time, an officer of the United States Navy, and this very Guerrero was the terror of the Spanish merchant ships, and fought most gallantly with a Spanish frigate. As the poor Spanish ex-was then gored, these gallant American were "heroes," not "pirates," as the proper Seward now calls Southern men, fighting under their own flag, and for the country which gave them birth.
