Remember how weary feet are lightened by @ gay marching tune. Think how much better a man fights to good music, and how sweet it is to hear, with dying ears, the anthem of one’s country mingling with the approach" ing melodies of angels. Until Gen. McClellan introduces our army to the true fighting music of the enemy’s cannon, let us have the brass bands. Rebellion may as well be played out musically while we await our advance.

Dahlgren. Nor did the rebels escape without their share of damage. A 32-pounder shell from the Yankeo's after gun went right under the carriage of their sixty- eight pounder, where it exploded, dismounting the gun. The second division, to which the 32-pounder belonged, and~which did the principal firing, was commanded by Master’s Mate 8, A. Waterbury: Old Jack Williams, Master’s Mato of the Anacostia, who wax promoted from before the mast for his gallantry at Mathias Point, deserves to be noticed for his bravery and the accuracy of his fire. Two men were slightly wounded on board the Yankee—Alexander Mitchell, in the leg, and Hector McLean, bruised on the breast. On passing the port bow of the Yankee, on my return to the Stepping Stones, the place where the shot entered was clearly visible, It is about two feet above the water line, and it has been temporarily repaired. Mattawoman crock is nearly frozen over, and drift ice has appeared on the river. To-day the river is so full of ico between Fort Washington and Alexandria, that it was with the utmost difficulty and considerable danger the Stepping Stones was able to reach Alexandria, Great floes of ice, in some places from three to four inches thick, impeded and al- most obstructed navigation, A dense fog added to tho difficulty, and Captain Grumley, by advice of the pilot, brought up alongside a wharf at Alexandria, as it was impossible for the Captain to obey his orders, proceed to the navy yard, deliver his despatches and return imme- diately. The fog is quite dense to-day. HEALTH OF GENERAL SUMNER. It is very gratifying to the friends of General Sumner to learn that he has very much improved since his re- moval to Washington, and expects soon toagain take command of his division. It is hoped that the grand army will soon be divided into corps d’armee, under major genera!s. In this case General Sumner would bo ‘one of the first to reoeive a command of this kind. Ho ranks next to Genoral McClellan in the army of the Poto- mac, and has the full confidence of all that know him. His course in the important command of the Pacitle was particularly wiso and discreet. With a Commander-in- Chief in whom all the army and the people have entire confidence, and general officers as faithful and experinced as General Sumner, no apprehension need be felt for the results. THE CASE OF GENERAL BENHAM. The following letter has been sent to General Rosecrans by tho Adjutant General of the army:— HeapQuarTERs OF THE ARMY, } Api. Gxy.’s Orrice, Wasmncrtoy, Jan. 7, 1861. To Brigadier General W. 8. Rosecras Major Genvral McClellan dircets me to say that the charges filed by you against Brigadier General Benham canuot be sent to trial until the state of military operations will permit a court martial to be convened, and the wit- nesses now in active service in the field to attend it - As soon as th's can be done he will appoint acourt. The delay is unavoidable, but as the charges are too grave to be dismissed, they must be reserved for trial when the convenience of the service will permit.

CONFERENCE OF BANK REPRESENTATIVES. "Thecommissioners said to have been appointed by the bank directors of Boston, New York and Philadelphia ar- rived hore to-night, consisting of Messps. Coe, Vermilye, -Martin and Gallatin,of New York; Walloy, Haven and :Bates, of Poston, and Redgers, Mercer and Patterson, of Philadelphia. -These commissioners are in conference to- cht, and it is said by representatives of banks in New York here, who deny the authority of the alleged com. ‘missioners, that it is their intention to go directly with their grievauces to the Committee of Ways and Means of ‘the House, instead of consulting with the Secretary of the “Treasury, and present a bill cf their own to the committee, ‘the provisions of whith are said to be directly in conflict with the views of Secretary Chase. If the commissicnadopt ‘this course their career will be brief, inasmuch as the Committee of Ways and Means will take no action on the subject of the finances without consulting Sceretary “Chase, who is supposed to know the wishes of the bank- ing institutions of: the comtry as wellas any sclf-consti- Auted committees can possibly do. SKIRMISH WITH THE ENEMY. Yesterday there was a slight skirmish between a small detachment of our men and a body of the enemy. Com- pany H, Captain Quackenbush, of the Fifth Michigan regiment, Colonel. H. D. Terry, which is on picket duty in front of General Heintzelman’s division, went out from the main body of the regiment on a scouting expedition. ‘Tho company was ‘halted at Pohick church, where the captain, taking amusket in his hand, and accompanied ‘Dy anvadvance guard of twelve mon, proceeded a mile down the bill, to Pohick run. On reaching the bank they were frod upon by asmall force of rebel infantry con cealed in the woods, and Herman Rosecrans was instantly Killed the bat! omtering beneath his right ear and passing ‘through his bead. The fire was immediately returned, and three! the rebels fell. Two were killed, including the one who shot Rosecrans, and one was wounded in the leg. Tho wounded rebel rose, and, assisted by some of ‘his companions, hobbled away. At the first fire the re- serveof company H came up at couble quick to the ad- ‘vance guard, but on their approach the rebels ran No other person was injured on our side. Rosecrans’ remains were brought OF THE REBEL BATTERIES AT BOYD'S MOL AQUIA CHEEK—ADDITIONAL PARTICULARS OF THE COCKPIT POINT AFFAIR, ETC. Theo Hrratp’s special correspondent with tho Potomac flotilla writes from on board of the steamer Stepping Stones, near Mattawoman creck, under date of Jan. follo ‘The Stepping Stones, which went down to the lower di »vision of the flotilla on the night of the 2d instant, with stores for the dillerent vessels, passed the batteries with- ‘out boing fired at. She left St. Mary’s river yesterday morning, and repassed the batteries before daylight this morning. A drizzling rain was falling at the time, which probably hid her from view from the Virginia shore, as sho was not mol sted. Commodore Wyman having instructed Lieutenant Coin manding McGaw, of the Freeborn, to hirass the enemy as much as porsib‘o, the Lieutenant expressed his opinion that he could not de so mare effectually than by woking ‘up seven or eight hondred men on a cold winter's night, in their shirts, to the comforts of a bombardment. Ac- cordingly, at forty minutes past twelve o'clock yester- day morning, the Freeborn, Satellite and Island Belle, go under weigh, and stood over to the Virginia shore, opposite Maryland Point, and began to shell the rebel encampment near Boyd's Hole. The shells flew has been a most indefatigable, efficient and popular offi- cer. Col. Bidwell has temporary command of his brigade to-day. LIVELY SCENE AT THR CAMP OF THE SIZTH MAINE. REGIMENT. ‘The camp of the Sixth Maine regiment was last evening the scene of lively jollification, caused by the promotion of Lieutenant Colonel Burnham to the commend of the regiment, vice Colonel Knowles, resigned on account of ill health, ana the -appointment as Lieutenant Colonel.of Captain Chandler, of Company A. The new Colonel and: Lieutenant Colonel were serenaded, and each responded: in a speech. When told by Colonel Burnham to be patient a little while longer, and then they would have plenty of fighting to do, the boys mace the welkin ring with their clamerous cheers. There is not a more faith- ful, hardier and pluckier regiment in the sevice. Ju the large reconnoissance and foraging expedition on Tuesday, ‘a detachment was sent on in adyance to draw the enemy juto a fight, and they went for this purpose two miles ahead of the brigade, which remained bebind to support them. INSPECTION OF ARMY CLOTHING. Captain Thomas, of the Clothing Department, has been: engaged for the past week inspecting the elothing of the army of the Potomac. He found im many cases inferior qualities supplied by contractors, which fact he bas duly reported to the Quartermaster General. An ellort will be made to establish a bureau especially to attend to this branch of business. PAYMENT OF TROOPS. Paymaster Pormery paid off the First, Second and Third Pennsylvania regiments of Gen, MeCall’sdivision to- day. The remaining regiments will be paid to-morrow and next week. Most of the regiments attached to this division will end most of their pay home. REMOVAL OF HEADQUARTERS. Quartermaster General Meigs removed his quarters to- day from the War Derartment building to Winder’s Building, nearly opposite; and the headquarters of the United States army will be removed from the old quar- tors formerly occupied by General Sovtt to those recent- ly occupied by General Meigs. FIRE AT GENERAL M’CALL’S DIVISION HOSTITAL. ‘The division hospital in General MeCall’s division had a narrow escape to-day from being burned. A fire caught ia the second story, in the ward occupied by those woundeil in the Dranesville battle, Before it was got under a large hole was burned through the partition, and Was extending to the room occupied by the wound- ed. ‘The fire originated from the imperfoct construction of the chimney.

Norton, Quartermaster of Third brigade, Ge Fitzjohn Porter's division, has to-day been appointed Assistant Division Quarto: master, This gives h’m a place in General Porter's stall. DESTRUCTION OF LIQUOR AT ALEXANDRIA. ‘The Provost Guard in Georgetown last night seized and poured on the ground the intoxicating liquors of four drinking houses, after the example of the Provost Guard in Washington. Proprietors of such establishments are subject to similar losses for keeping them open after half- past nine at night. DISTINGUISHED ARRIVALS. ‘The Captain of the British ship Jmmorialite, now lying off Anrapolis, is here, the guest of Lord Lyons. Hon. J. Glancey Jones, late our Minister to Austria, is here settling vp his accounts with tho government, THE REBEL STEAMER SUMTER. The State Department has information that the Sumter was in the harbor of St. Pierre, Martinque, on the 22d of Pecember, and the United States steamer Iroquois, which had followed her up, was one league off the harbor wait- ing for her to again come out, EXPULSION OF POLK AND JOHNSON, OF MISSOURI, thick and fast, and many of them were seen to burst over the land in the direction of the encampments. No re. sponse was given by the rebels, and at haifpast one o'clock tho firing ceased, ‘Tho three vessels thon stood wp for Aquia creek, and commenced to bi mbard the batteries there at twenty minutes to five o'clock, continumg an incessant fire tiil a quarter past six o'clock, when the firing coased, witho it eliciting a shot from the rebels. ‘The Freeborn employed her 68 and 32 pounders, the Satellite her Parrott gun and a 68.pounder, and the Island Fello a 32-pounder and a 24-pounder brase rifled howitzer. At that hour cf the morning the blaze from the guns, and the incossant roar of the cannonade reverberating among the hills on either shore, were grand and imposing. Colonel Graham, of the Fifth Exvelsior New York regi ment, was on board the Freeborn during th innonade. Thave just received, cn beard the Yankee, some in teresting particulars of the affair at Cockpit Point on the 2d instant, which 1 could not possibly get befere, our stay was 0 short on our way down. The shot that struck the Yankee on hor port bow, after knocking away the knee tore away three sleeping bunks cn the same side, driving the splinters in all directions, It then crossed to the starboard sitte, cut: ting three hammocks nearly in two in its Might. One of those had been recently occupied by a seaman namea George W. Neold, who was on the sick list; but George, on hearing the cal to quarters, had turned ont to his duty. Had he remained in the hammock the shot must have instantly cut him in two about the middie; but his enthusiasm, contrary to (he ordinary course of events, saved his life. After these vagaries the shot amused itself by ripping open a mattrose on the star- Doard side, whore it splintered another knoe and dropped on the damaged mattress. I went into the forecastle this morning, where 1 saw the damage that had been done. One of the sailors tolt me that tho shel must bave come ‘stern foremort,”’ which alone accounts for its not having exploded in the forecastie, and causing immense damage to the ves. Sel, and perhaps great sacrifice of life. As tho shell waa & percussion, this is the general impression of the officers. The sholl was fifteen inches long by six inches ta diamotor. It was carefully boxed and sont to Captain FROM THE SENATE. Senators Clark, Doolittle, Foote, Kennedy, McDougall, Peares, Willey and Wilmot were absent to-day whon the vote was taken to expel Messrs. Polk and Johnson, both of Missouri, Jt is known that all of them, if present, would have voted with the remainder of the Senate for their expulsion. THE COAST SURVEY. Members of Congress have been carnestly debating the propriety of either suspending or narrowly contracting the Coast Survey operation during the war, Amendments are pending to the Civil Appropriation bill which, if con. curred in, will amount almost to a disorganization of that branch of the public service, That members may Lave all the light which can be afforded on the subject, Trinted copies of a letter of Superintendent Bache were distributed among them to-day, showing the important sorvices rendered by that office during the present hosti- lities, as acknowledged by the highest military and naval authorities. The appropriations now proposed are more than a bundred thousand dollars less than the amount yotod last year for coast survey purposes, ADAMS? EXPRESS.

DR. CHEKVER'S LECTURE. The lecture room of the Smithsonian Institution was crowded to-night by an appreciative audience to hear Dr, Cheevor's lecture on ‘The Justice and Necessity of Slave Emancipation to Crush the Rebeilion.’” THE URANCH MINT AT NEW YORK. Mr. Ward, and not Mr. Wood, of New York, introduced the bill recently in the House to establish a coinage de- partment in the United States Assay OMce in New York. A typographical error renders this correction necessary. UNITED STATES AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY. ‘The United States Agricultural Seciety has adopted a rories of resolutions adverting to agricultural education, and prepared a promium list for a series of oxperimonts ‘on the cultivation of cotton in the Middle and Northern States; also of hemp and flax—the awarda to be made by tho central agricultural societies of the States in which the competitors reside.

Mr. Lanx, (rop.) of Kansas, rose to a personal explana- tion, and read an article from the Nsw York Hxratp, saying that the Senate had been engaged in discussing the case of Mr. Lane, and that he (Lane) desired delay, and had resigned his place in the Senate. Mr. Lane said that it was not true that be wanted any delay. It was not true that ho had written his resigna- tion to the Kansas Legislature. It was true he had ac- eopted the Brigadier Generalship tendered him. He (Lane) had no fgoling against the contestant (Mr. Stan- ton) except that which arose from his attempt to deolare his (Lano’s) scat vacant four days after he took it. FORKIGN CONSULS. Mr. Grimes, (rep.) of Iowa, offered a resolution that the Secrotary of State report to the Senate a list of all the Consuls.” Agreed to. EXPULSION OF SENATORS JOBNSON AND POLK, OF MISSOURI. Mr. TRUMBULL, (rep.) of Ill, moved to take up the re- 't of the Judiciary’ Committee that Waldo P. Johnson e expelled from the Senate. Mr. Bayarp, (opp.) of Del., said that the evidence in the ease satistled him’ that Mr. Johnson had left the United States and gone to the Confederate States, and:he (Bay- ard) could have no hesitation in giving his vote to expel int. Mr. Powsit, (Union) of Ky., said that he stiould also vote for Mr. Johngon’s expulsion. On motion of Mr. Tex Eyck, (rep.) of N. J., the resolu- tion reported back from the Judiciary Committee, that Trusten Polk be expelled from the Senate, was taken up. ‘The resohition was adopted by yeas 36, nays none. Mr. Trempuus offered a resolution, which was adopted, that the Vico President transmit a copy of the resolutions expelling Messrs. Johnson and Polk from tho Senate to the Governer of Missouri. RELEASE OF FUGHIVE SLAVES. ‘Mr. Gruwse, (rop.) of Wis., moved to take up the bill in rogard. te the administration of criminal justice in the District of Columbia. ‘The bill provides that persons confined in the District Jail prior to the Ist term of tho criminal court: beset f¥eo if no indictments be found against them. Mr. Powsta, (opp.) of Ky., offered, as an amendment, to except fugitive siaves. He said that the bill,.as it stood, would, at the end of every criminal court, liberate ail the fugitive slaves who happened to be there. Mr. Grntes referred to the case of afree colored boy, who was confined in the jail thirteen months on the charge of 4 runaway, which was no cause at all. He wanted all such persons freed. He was not going to tax his people to keepasiave pen at Wash- ingtcm. There were a number of such cases as he had referred to, and it was @ disgrace to the country. Qn motion of Mr. TxaRce, (opp.) of Md., the bill was postponed and made the special order for Tuesday, ‘THE IRON CLAD GUNBOAT BILL. ‘Tho bill providing for the buiding of twenty mail clad guaboats was postponed until the answer could be had frcm.the Secretary of the Navy relative to the resolution offered yeater ‘THE NEW MEXUER YROM OREGON. Gu motion of Mr. Bayarp, Copp.) ‘of Del., the motion to refer the credentials of Poujamin Stark, of Oregon, was taken up. Me. Bayarp contended that it was not in accordance with tho constitution to refuse to allow the Senator to take the oath of oflice, The qualification of a Senator was loft entirely to his State, and it was not in the power of theSenate to refuse to allow him to take the oath of office. ‘The Senate could not reject an idiot or a man con- victed of erime if he was properly sent here by hisState. Such a person has a right to be sworn in as a member of this body. ‘hen the Senate would have the power to punish him asa mowber or expel him for sufiicient cause. He (Mr. Bayard), claimed there were no precedents as rogarded this case, and thas it would bea very dangerous precedent to establish, that of referring credentials. Mr. Scmyen, (rop.) of Mass.,said that the constitution said that each House should be judge of the qualification of its own members. Does the Senator from Delaware claim that the Senate.canvot consider loyalty as a quali- fication? He (Mr. Sumper) claimed that there were pre- codonts. He referrad to the cage of Philip Barton, of Kentucky, in the Tenth Congress, who was said to be in the pay of England,and the House made his lvyally a question of qualiticasion, Mr. Bayaxp thought that the case was not. parallel ove, and roferrod to the words uttered by a member of the House during the Mexican war, whon he hoped that our troops would be welcomed by the Mexians with bloody bands to hospitable gi z the man d sloyal for that speech, and would net condemn n oa deciars ons uttered in the heat of debate. d there was no doubt ecedent, and according to hould allow the applicant to take the med that the present applicant is not ‘question is,as there is no precedent, what shali we de with it? He (Mr. Collamer) would have this question of loyalty settled, and waald let it go to the Jndiciary Committee and have a reporton the subject. ‘That was the very point he wanted oxamined. Mr. Hate, (rep.) of N. H., said thas he wanted to make a correction regarding his absent friend, Mr. Corwin, He (Mr. Hale), thought Mr. Corwin’s speech a very fine ove, and very much like the speech of Lord Chatham when he said that if he were an American, and foreign ticops eu- tered his country, he would never lay down his arms, Mr. Corwin said, © If I were a Mexican, L would say, bave you not work enough to do in your own coungry to bury dead men? If you como into mine we will moet you wit bloody hands and welcome you to hespitable graves.” ‘That is what Mr. Corwin sat‘, and if anybody here finds fault with it (hey can find fant here with him bm Hale). Mr. TROMBULL, (rep.) of Hl, said it was a strange doc- trine that the Senate could not take notice of the loyalty of an applicant. Suppose some stato should send a negro here with Bg credentials, would the Senator from Pe'aware admit him? Mr. Bayakp—I would require him to be a citizen of the United States, Mr. TruMucti—How would you determine that, by color? ‘Then, you yo behind the credentials, and that is just the point. According to the docirine of the Souator from Delaware, if the State cf Mississippi should ‘a spy of Jeff. Davis’ here to blow up the Capitol we mest admit him here to set fire to the powder that will blow up the Capitol. There were precedents where cre- dentia’s were sent toa commiltee before the cath of of- fice was taken. The question now is whether wo shall sead this case to the committce. Mr. Bayan ssid that he cnly stated that the croden- tials must be received where the authority to appoint is correct and pt ly exisis. The Senate had never re- fused to allow the oath to be taken, except where thore ‘was objection to the appointing authority, We must pay proper respect to the appointing authority. Dir.

Mr. PoweLt. offered a resolution, that, whoreas, a ro- solution was parsed on the A7th of July, 1861, asking the Secretary of War to inform the Senate what contracts had been made by his department @ 4th of March, what the price paid, and what payments had been made called out by the proclamation ot tho Pr sidont,and by what authority and under what law. As tho Secretary of War has not answered this resolution he now bo directed to answer it. It was laid over on motion of Mr. Wison. THE APPOINTMENT OF BUTLERS, The bill rolating to the appointment of sutlers and their definite duties was taken up. Mr. Layr, pl of Kansas, moved to substitute for the wholo bill ag follows:—Frem aud after the Ist of Fobri- ary, 1862, the position of rezimontal and brignde eutlers be abolished in the regular and volunteer forces of the United States.'’ Ho suid the sutier system was a nuisance ond an actual injury to the service. ‘Mr. Wirzow said when he first moved in the matter it was intonded to abolish sutiers aud establish a system like that in the navy. found great difficulty in that, and had, after consultation with officers, drawn up the Dill with great care. He thought it would do great good. He had never been so abused in his life and threatened and slandered, Mr. Lane, of Kansas, asked if it was thought possible by any penalty we could exclude spirituous liquors? The only way to do it was to abolish sutlers. Me ‘Tan Evcx, (rop.) of N. J., thought that there were ‘many honest mon among the sutlors, and he was not will- ing to strike all the men down with one blow, fir. ‘Witson said it was a caso whero a man, ono Cyrus Seymour, with the consent of the Secretary of War, was appointed brigade autler of the Sickles Brigade, and other sutlers pay him twenty-two hundred dollars per year, 4nd he does not furnish a cont. No such ollicer is known to the law. Another sutter waa appointed inside the brigade. Another man was appointed sutler to 80 regiments, and be was making seventy-five thousand doltars a year, underletting the whole thing. Mr. Cauuit, (Union), of Va.,moved to recommit tho Dill, with instructions to abolish gutltrs and furnish @ tobacco ration. PRNALTIBS IMPORRD UPON SENATORS.

Stevens, (rep.) of Pa., offered an amendment appro- Feiiting #360,000 to supply the deficiency for printing ‘Treasury notes,a similar item having been stricken out several days ago by the House. Referring to the debate which tok place'ou a former day, he argued that there was nothing to show, as was sought to be provedl by refe- renco to the testimony beforé the Contract Investigating Committee, that unfiir means had been resorted to for the performance of the work. Mr. Dawes, (rep.) of Mass., said that tho gentleman could not expect'the people to pay heavy war taxes unless he (Mr. Stevens) showed a willinguess and a sincere desire to out off every attempt to plunder the treasury. He hoped the gentieman would forbear pressing thie appro- priation until they cculd ascertain the price and proof of this unconscionable contract, The’ American Baak Note Company had already: reeeived $800,000. Mr. Mornits, (rep.) of ¥t., said that Mr. Dawes-did not show that any officor of the Treasury Department was concerned in the contract, but that the Assistant'Secre- ary cf the Treasury, Mr. Harrington, lied to the man who came hither to for the printing of the'Trea- sury notes.

Sedgwick, being from New York, knew what was there better than he (Mr. Dawes) did, Mr. Sencwick further inquired whether Mr. Ormsby was a responsible mah’? Mr. Dawes replied that what he had complained of was that fair comyetition was not permitted. Mr. Srevens’ amendiment, after ineflectual attempts to sustain it, was disagreed to, and the clause appropriating $100,000 for engraving and printing Treasury notes was stricken ont. ‘The committee rose, when the amendments.agreed to therein were reported to the House tor thoir final aetion. Mr. Srevens asked # yea aud nay vote on concunring in the amendment striking out that appropriation, saying, if the question should be determined in the affirmative, self-respect woulsl compel the Secretary of tite ‘Preasury to resign his offige. Mr. Skvcwick said if the House should:conewr in the recommenda; ion to strike out the appropriation. it would be on the ground that there had been afraudalent con- tract between the Secretary of the Treasury, aad the en. gravers who have contracted to furnish the.nates. The.re- sult mus be that the Secretary of the: Treasury must either resp under the imputation or resign: his office. He begged tie Honse to pause and consider the evidence be- fore they pronounced judgment. He quoted from the repors of the contract in the Investigation Committee to show the utter msufliciency of the testimony on which it Was sought to convict a high officer of tbe government of frand. Mr. THomas, (rep.) of Mass., remiusted the gent'eman Que. Sedzwick) that no gentleman who bad spoken had thrown the slightest imputation, om the Secre:ary of the Treasury, or attempted to datract from his well eurned reputation. Mr. Sxpawiex replied that the-rejection of the appro- Id be supported on na other ground than that ct Was a fruudubynt one. Ho repeated a . Ormsby, whcse name had been jatro duced into this ‘subject, waa the representative of a note engraving company which never had an existence. In Vindjguting Assistant Secretary Harrington, he said he bad heard of irresponsibly contractors infesting every department of the govern- ment, upen political favoritism and perrcnal inw- portunity in’ presceuting their aims until thoy obteip.a contract of somo kind, and then sell it out to someone who is cy able of doing'the work. He was understeod to say that this was the way Mr. Ormsby, with hie man Hopkins, voogbt te obtain a contract. Thore veas not a single word of rebiable proof to show that cither the Socretary or Assistant Secretary had acted isapxoper y. If there was any roason to believe this, justice would re. quire that an opportunity should beaftorded for an ox- planation, Without frther proceedings on the subject the House adjourned till Mond Arrival and Movements of Gen.
