The Republican Caucus—Authorized State- ment, {Despatch to the New Yerk Tribune.) In the ublican caucus last night, Gen. Banks took the chair, and stated that the object of the meeting was either to fix the date of ad. journment of both Houses, or to agree upon a recess. Mr. Ashley favored a recess. Senators, he said. could stay in executive session, to pre- vent removals from office, He was sure that four members of the Cabinet would ge out after the Philadelphia Convention. A member from Wiseonsin, whose name the [ribune reporter could not hear distinctly, offered a resolution binding each member of the cuucus to abide by its action, and to main- tain }secresy as to its proceedings. Messrs. Hale and Bingham opposed this, While Mr. Bingham was speaking, a member jumped up and remarked that he did not see ibe use of pledging to secrecy, as there was an audience present. Several members inquired where the audience was, and it was soon found that a colored man had found his way into the gallery, and was listening yery atten. tuvely to what was being said. The door- keeper was immediately sent after him. and he was arrested. On being interrogated, he said he had come to see Congress) He was asked how he got into the canems meeting, and he replied that he found a door open and went in, not knowing that visitors were denied ad- mitrance. The resolution of the Wisconsin member was amenaed so us to relate only to secrecy. Here followed an animated discussion on a resoluuon condemning the Philadelphia Con- vention, which was offered by Thaddeus Stey- ens, Mr, Raymond disconfsed, as stated in yes- terday’s Tribune, asserting that when he favored the call it was bis understan: that it was to be a Union Convention. Mr. Hale, of New York, said the New York Evening Post, one ot the best Republican papers in the country. endorsed the Convention. Mr. Wil- son, of Massachusetts, said he differed from Mr. Hale in bis estimate of the Post. It was true it was an able paper. and he had great respect for its editor, but one of its proprietors bad been convicted of an infamons crime, and only escaped punishment by technicalities.

The resolution of the committee thst Mr. Daweon is entitied to his seat as a Represen- tative of the 2ist district of Pennsylyania was then agreed to without @ division. Mr. Spalding, of Ohio, calied ap the report of the special committee om the case of Hon L. H. Ronssean, and pending its consideration the House adjourned Further about Miss Jones, the Suicide. {From Worcester ( Maes.) Paliadiam, Juty 11.) The telegraph reported trom New York, on Seturday, ‘he suicide of a young female ot the uame of Eleanor Jones, who sbot herself in the hegd the night belore, on the doorsteps of a doctor with whom, report says, she had been living im criminal inumacy. in the “sensa. ional movels” which ia the tntare will have their place in connection with the great re- bellion, Miers Jones will probably be an im- portant character. Her tamily—not of the name of Jones—iived in or near Boston. Butan the second year of the war she made her appear- ance im the Arniy of the Rappabannock: asso. ciating with the officers, who provided ber with a horse and all accoutrements, and pro- fessing an ardent mterestin the Unior They gave ber the title of “Major Jon of coutse she became possessed of the plans and purposes of thearmy. At length the War Department became satisfied that she visited the camp on the Rappabsannock of the agent of certain rebel females, of whom Washington was pretty fll in all the early period-of the war, and that Jones communicated to them all the information she picked up in the army, and by them was at once despatebed to the rebel government at Richmond. She Was arrested, and sent by order of the Secre- tary of War to Massachusetts, to be confined in such house of correction as Goy. Andrew might designate. The Governor designated the prison at Fitchburg, and she was commit. ted there. But confinement tnere being irk- some to her. she wrote to Gov. Andrew, and prevailed on bim to obtain from government permission for her transfer to the House of Correction at Barnstable: and accordingly she was thus transferred. The next heard of her was, that she had been released from impr: opment, and was travelling to New York in company with a distinguished politician of that city, whose proclivities during the war were all towards the rebels. It was surmised at the time, that the Jones gurl was in posses- sion of certain secrets, in relation to Northern sympathizers im the rel » Which they tight be apxious to suppri orcontrol. She w »robably about 23 yearsold; of rather pre- possessing Appearance; talked flaentiy: and wrote letters in good style. Her vocation, as a srrvantof the rebels. closed with the war: and her career in life terminated, as it was easy to predict it would close, in moral ob- liquity and shame Singular Seene in Jersey City The quiet of that portion” of Jersey City ly- ing m (he vicinity of Grand and Yan Vors streets and the police station was disturbed Thursday afternoon by a singular scene. A young woman of rather prepossessing appear- ance, but almost entirely denuded of clothing, was seen to rush hastily through the streets named, closely pursned by two men who seemed intent oh overtaking ber. The fugitive female directed her steps to the police station, where she sought refuge, demanding protec- ton from the men who were following her. One ef the men accused the girl of coming to his house in Grand street and stealing a da- geurrotype, which she fo her at the Moment. The aid in » thinking there was more than this in the case questioned the girl, when she told the stevy in an artless man- ner that carried conviction with it. From her Statement it a) Ts that she resided in New ‘York: that she formed an acquaintance, about 48 months ago, with theson of theman who accused her of the theft of the picture, and that he seduced her. The result of the connection ‘was the birth of a child, abont two months since, but the infaat only lived to be 6 weeksold. Her seducer, refusing fo make any reparation for the done her, she resolved 10 bring the matter to the notice of a proper court and termined not to be foiled. she procured services of a de. tective to secure his arrest, and the officer asked ture of the to aid bim in his sear Not baving one, the youss woman ersey City of admission proceeded to the residence in mts of her seducer, obtained she her the to bouse, secured the ‘was in search of, and was about to make exit, when the family, en masse—father, mother, Ss ee chen assaalt upon ie view regain ston pe me picture But the git fought des- perately, an 101 near] ‘was om eff she retained ok ot and — her escape.

The advantage of this is that, when the powder is ignited, that Portion next the ball, in which combustion is first per- fected, exerts its fell force w the ie, the powder in rear also exerting its influence. asit becomes almost simuftaneously ignited Under the present system, in which t at part of the powder next tothe breech of the gun is first gnited, a portion of the powder is frequently expelled from the gun with the ball in a cendi- tion of only partial combustion, the explosive torce of the powder first consumed being ade- quate toexpel the ball and the powder in its front before the whole charge has ume to be- come entirely ignited. Thus in the “Needle” gun all the powder is eonsumed, and plied to the vest effect, and *o as to obtain its fallest force At the same instant and in the same di- rection. The “Needle” gun is a breach-loader: and when the trigger it pulled, astout “needie”? or wire ts thrust throngh the base of the cart- ridge, paraliel with tts axis, into the detons- tung charge by the ball, causing its explosion and the ignition of the cartridge. in Sccuracy the “Needle” gua o be sa. end ite efective range is esid to be about fifteen han- dred yards. Itt, however, doubtfal whether it will be found to bear with impunity the necessarily rough treatment of an active cam- paign. The Prussian Jaggers, and - shooters generally, are armed with this for- midable weapon, and upon a skirmish line. when itean be ased with eare and deliberation, it must prove higbly effective.
