n and Stuart complimented it. Rodes was made a full Major General, and after the distressing news of Stonewall Jackson's wound, became senior officer on the field under General Lee. His modesty caused him to turn over the command to General J. E. B. Stuart of the cavalry, one of the most dashing officers I ever saw. May God spare Stonewall Jackson's life! My company and regiment lost heavily. In F company, Captain McNeely, Joe Black, Tom Foulk, Jim Lester, West Moore, Fletcher Zachry, Sergt Simmons and Ben. Ward were wounded. Ward lost an arm.

er manoeuvres I shuffled that hempen coil, and finding that I was not Hawes de combat, nor my zeal dampened (but with some loss of dignity as a soldier), I went in search of less tight-fitting and clinging garments. Of the 1,500 soldiers aboard, not a soul of them knew anything of the circus I had had. The next morning came in with a cloudless sky, the ship on an even keel, on a glassy sea. As I went forward I looked over the rail and noticed that the water had a peculiar color. To Sergeant Simmons, who was to be my guest at the galley, I said: We are in shoal water, and looking ahead, added, and we are shoaling fast. We shall be aground in less than five minutes.

Secretary of the Interior; Mr. Wells, Postmaster General; Gen. Cameron, of Pennsylvania, Secretary of the Treasury. Several gentlemen are prominently mentioned for Secretary of War. The statement is thus communicated without vouching for its accuracy. Private advices received to-day from Montgomery say that very soon a Commissioner will be appointed by the Southern Confederacy, accredited to the new Administration, and that in the meantime no measure will be taken with a view to dislodge the Federal forces now in possession of the Southern forts. [second Dispatch.] Washington, Feb. 25. --It is stated, with an air of authority, that the proceedings in the Peace Congress to- day, convinced a majority of the Commissioners from more than one border State, Virginia included, that no intention exists, on the part of several of the Eastern States, to make concessions which Virginia can accept. Simmons is spoken of respectively for the War and Treasury Departments.

C., argued that the Inaugural meant war, and that war was the real purpose of the Administration. Within the last three days he had information of heavy guns and large reinforcements going South to take possession of forts in North Carolina, Virginia, and elsewhere. Messrs. Hale, Chandler and Simmons replied. After an Executive session, the Senate Adjourned.
e, with a few remarks, took the chair. Mr. Wilson moved that a committee of two be appointed to wait upon the President and inform him of the election of Hon. Mr. Foote as presiding officer of the Senate, which motion was agreed to, and Messrs. Wilson and Bright were appointed to discharge that duty. Mr. Wade presented to the Senate the credentials of Hon.

Mr. Sherman having taken the usual oath to support the Constitution-- Mr. Simmons rose to a personal explanation, relative to the misunderstanding between him and Mr. Clingman.
