They - Commenced evacuating the place about sunsot last night. ‘The cavairy were the !as: to Icavo, and they departed Just before we entered the town. It is represented that there is a large rebel force at > Strasburg, and that they intend to make a stand thore. Owing to the state of affairs at Manassas, it is belioved that General Jackson will make his way up the Shenan- doah valloy to the Virginia Central Railroad, and thonce “to Richmond. Prominent rebels hero say that the rebel forces will ~make a stand at Gordonsvillo, and have fortified it to a great extent.

EDWIN M. STANTON, Secretary of War. GENERAL NEWS. ‘Wasurxoton, March 13, 1862. AFFAIRS ON THE VIRGINIA SIDE OF THE POTOMAC, Accounts received to night from the Virginia side re- Present nothing of especial interest among our troops. THE MOURNFUL HOWLINGS OF THE ADOLITIONISTS, ‘The assaults of the radical faction in Congress and their howling after General McClellan, are producing a deep feeling of dissatisfaction. The army, officers and soldiers, almost idolize General McClellan. They deeply reseny tho attacks upon him, which they know are groundless and unjust. In fact, so much feeling is manifested on this subject throughout the army, that there is dangor of its effecting demoralization, by a continuance of this fierce and reckless partisan warfare upon the man who has made the army what it is, aud whose plans of the campaign have thus far resulted so gloriously for the re- public. Notwithstanding the sneors of the howling gentry at General McClellan for driving the rebel army away from Manassas without a battle, the result has only verified his own predictions, frequently expressed, that they ‘would fall back from Manassas upon the approach of our army, infront or any attompt to turn that position, Im- mediately upon the flank towards Richmond. It is but just to state that from the beginning of his command of the army the General-in-Chief has had but one plan for its prosecution; and up to this time that programme has been strictly carried out, and is intended to be executed, without any departure, until the capture of Richmond shall soon crown the successes of the federal army, and close the war for the Union. This plan cannot, of course, be disclosed; but tho re- treat of the rebels from Manassas necessitates no altera- tion in it. Arrangements have already been made for its final execution. A little patience on tho part of the furious ‘‘on to Richmond” faction will afford them an opportunity te celebrate the restoration of Richmond to federal authority sooner than they conceive to be pos- Sible. THE STEVENS BATTERY AND THE MAIL-CLAD GUX- BOATS. ‘The House Committee on Naval Affairs was occupied to- day with an examination of the Steven's iron-clad naval battery. Prof. Honry and Mr. Livingstone appeared be. fore thecommittec, and exhibited a model of the battery, and explained its merits to the complote satisfaction of the committee, several of whom have expressed tho opinion that the recont duel between the Merrimac and Monitor has entirely proved the correctness of the theory ‘announced by Mr. Stevens, a quarter of a century ago. Since Monday there has been = marked desire on the part of members of Congregs to fucilitate the construe- tion of none but tron-clad vessels of war. This battery bas gainod Immense popularity. There is no doutt its completion, without delay, wilt be recommended by the naval committees of both houses. The committee to-day wore particularly struck by the @normous woight of metal proposed tobe thrown, the perfect security of the crew, and the celerity with which the guns can be loaded by stenm and aimed to any quarter of the horizon or concentrated upon a’ singie point. Since the experiments of the Monitor there is a clemor in Concress for the immediate completion of Stevens’ bat tery, as worth more than a whole navy of ordinary iron- clad ships of war. There is tobe @ private meoting of the naval committees of both houses to-morrow to con- sider this subject, and also the proposed location of the Naval Academy at Porth Amboy. LEAVE OF ABSENCE TO CONSUL LAWRENCE. The Secretary of Stato hus grantod a six months’ leave of absence to T. Biglow Lawrence, Consul to Florence, to afford him an opportunity to accept the appointment of Major, conferred on him by tho Governor of Massachu setts, and to act as aid-do-eamp to General Keyes, com- manding one of the corps d’armee of the Potomac. THE CONTRACT INVESTIGATING COMMITTEE. The Governiment Contract Investigating Committeo are seattered. Mr. Dawes is at Boston; Colonel Van Wyck and Mr. Fenton are at Now York, probably examining into the fees and perquisites of the federal oflicors in that city and the affairs of the Custom House generally. Several of the other members of the committee aro in the West. INCREASED RAILWAY FACILITIES BETWEEN NEW YORK AND THE CAPITAL. ‘The report made from the Roads and Canals Committee to-day, accompanying the bill for increased railroad fa cilities between Now York and Washington, sots forth that the exigencies of the government require additional and more speedy communication; that the line should be inland and safe from the dangers of foreign invasion, to which the shoro line is ovorywhore exposed. This want, they say, can be supplied by finishing the Reading and Columbia Raiifad, and; the committee ac- cordingly recommend that the Secrotary of the ‘Treagury be authorized to endorse the first mortgage bonds of the company. It guarantees the pay- ment of the principal and interest to the extent of four hundred and fifty thousand dollars, two hundred and twenty-five thousand to be paid on the completion of baif the road, and the remainder on its completion. GENERAL TYLER’S NOMINATION CONFIRMED. The only confirmation by the Senate to-day was that of Daniel Tyler, of Connecticut, as Brigadier General of Volunteers, NOMINATION OF CAPTAIN RIOKETTS TO A RRIGA+ DIEKSHIP. Among the nominations for iirigadior Generals, sent to the Senato to-day, was that of Capt. T. B. Ricketts, of artiliery fame. SLAVERY IN THR DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA. ‘The House Committoe on the District of Columbia will substantially report to the House the bill passed in the Senate, for the abolition of slavery in the District of Columbia. There will be a iajority and minority re- Port eecompanying the bill. ‘The rofusal of a seat to Mr. Upton, of Virginia, in the House, of course brought with it his removal from the mittee. His place was filled by M*. Fessenden, of “Maine, and this change in the com- mittee has worked the proseut result.

THR BRAVERY OF SEAMAN JOUN DAVIS, Mr. Dixon, (rep.) of Conn., offered a resolution that the Committeo on Naval Affairs be instructed to inquire what is necessary tobe done in regard to John Davis, whose distinguished bravery has been brought to tho no- tice of the government by the report of Commodore Du" pont. ‘The resolution was adopted. REMOVAL OF THE NAVAR ACADEMY. Mr. Kexwxpy, (opp.) of Md., offerod a resolution that the Secretary of the Navy inform the Senate by what law the Naval Academy was removed to Newport, Rhode Island,and the reasons for such removal,and whether ‘such reagons still exist. VOT OF THANKS TO COMMODORE FOOTE. ‘Tho resolution expressing the thanks of Congress to Captain A. H. Foote, his officers aud men, of the Western flotilla, was taken up. Mr. Grusoxs, (rep.) of Iowa, said ho felt ita duty and pleasure to attention to the exploits of our navy in the Western waters. Ia May last Commander John was sont to Cincinnati to prepare gunboats for operations in the Western waters, The Tyler, Lexing- ton and Conestoga were built, When they first went to Cairo they wore lnughed at; but since that no rebel oraft has been above Columbus. Afterwards, in Septomber Captain Foote was sent to take the place of Rodgers, and the gunboats, partly iron clad, St. Louis, Curondelet, bere Essex and Mound City, mounting thirteen guns each, were finished, So far as he (dir. Grimes) could learn, tho plan of turning the enemy’s flank by going up the Tennessee and Cumberland rivers originated with Commander Foote, He referred at some length to tho triumph of the gunboats at Forts Henry and Donelson, and attributed the evacuation of Columbus to the in- fluence of the gunboats and mortar fleot. He contended that this conntry was dostined to be a great mari- time country, and the navy must be its right arm of defence, and referred to the gallant ox- ae of the navy elsewbere, under Dupont and Idsborough. He said the recont event at Hampton Roads demonstrated that ordinary wooden boats are no defence against iron boats, and that no stone fortress is any obstacle to the entrance of iron boats into any har. bor. He roferrod in terms of high eulogy to Lieutenant Worden and Captain Ericsson, and to the lamented dead on the Congress and Cumberland. ‘The resolution was passed.

Mr. Davis, (Union) of Ky., moved to take up the fe- pot - the Judiciary Committeo on the caso of Mr. we Motion agreed to by yeas 24, nays 16. Mr. Davis proc eed to speak in favor of the resolu- tion toexpel. He said he favored tha resolution from a sense of duty anitfrom what he considered to be the in- structions of the Kentucky Legislature, and his own Judgment on the subject. He thougst his colleague had entirely misreprosonted the views ot tho pooplo of Ken- tucky, and that a majority of the people and of the Le- gislature desired his place to bo vacated. Ho (ir. Davis) came here doterimined, if possible, to carry out the will of the people in vacating tho seat of his col- Joague. In the time of struggle and doubt in Kentucky, when it was doubtful whether she would turn rebol or not, the whole influence of his colleague was thrown against the government amd in favor of the rebellion. His colieague had endeaverod by every means to indoc- trinate the peovle of Kentucky with treason to the government. He referred to the States Rights Conven- tio at Henderson, Kentucky, where Mr. Powe'l presided, and read the Feel ee by that mocting. Ha claimed that Joff. Davis a:.@ Ine co'lcague worked to- gother to dos‘roy tho govornmont, and that secession alone was responsible for the war and the consequent burdens upon the people. His collengue took the pesition, then, that the independence of tee secoded States must be recognized. ‘This in itself is treasen, He referred also to the nextrality prociamation of Gov. Me yand elie. racterized the cenclu:iing yo tion'as Stesphemy when con- necied with such ‘iabolical purposes.. Ho then referred to the record of Mr, Powell in bis votes imthe Senate. ife had voted against the bil’ to raise the: army to 600,000, against the bi.i for the collection of the revenuo, against the adinission of tho Virginia Senators inst the bill for the organizaticn of the army, against the bill to in- crensc the pay of soldiers and nou-commissioned officers, and had presented @ written: protest auainst the bill to ish — conspirac’ these, in connection wlth Breckinritge, Volk. and Joliagon of Missouri. Mr. Davis ferred te: the Mexican war as part of tho great conspiracy to which Powell with Breckinridge leyt themselves. Tho neutrality of the Governor of Kentucky and of his col- league was oppcsition to the United States; but that was not the neutrality of the Union men of that State. Ken- tucky bad then a traitor aud rebel in the executive chair; but that galiant State had nobly redermot herself si: ce then. He then referred to the Convention at Frankfort, at which Powell attended aud drafted the resolutions, as aconyention of ‘seceshers,” under the name ot peace. He said he was for the expulsion of hie colleague from no personal fec!ing or enmity of any kind, but from a conse of duty, as he thought all his votes and setions wore against the government and in favor of secession. ‘Mr. PowEit, (opp.) of Ky., Said ho wished to make a few remarks iu reply to his colleague. 1° the. other Senators wished tospesk he would wait til they had Mr. Davis said he knew of no raio by which his col- league coul! prescribe rules of debate.

INTERESTING FROM THE STATE CAPITAL. Proposition to Widen the Erie Canal Locks Sufficiently to Admit the Pas- sage of Gunboats, &., dec. Axpany, March 13, 1862. A resolution was introduced in the Assembly by Mr. Alvord to-day, on inquiries into the expense of widening and lengthening one tier of locks on the Erie Canal,s0 as to make them one hundred and fifty fect long and twenty-five feet wide. The locks now admit boats ninety-eight feet long and seventeen feet wide. An engineer from Washington, who was here yesterday, stated that the matter was being discussed there, and the only question now was that of expense. A prominent and successful contractor offers to take the job and give the best of securitics that he will do it for three millions of dollars. If it can be accomplished for that amount, so ag to allow gunboats to pass through successfully from the Hudson to the lake, it will be an important move in regard to the defence of our frontior.

A messenger arrivod at ton o’clock last night bringing additional news of the battle. ‘The ongagemont took place on Little Sugar Creek, where askirmish occurred on their march down.

While thus en- gaged Gonoral Sigel was three times surrounded, but cut his way through each tire. The principal fighting on Thursday was done by Gen. Sigel. In this way on Friday the engagement became general, and continued so throughout, the officers be- having with much gallantry. The most exposed position was cecupied by Colonel Carey’s division; and the greatest loss was sustained by them. Colone! Dodger’s brigade, of this civision, consisted of the Fourth Iowa regiment and the First iowa battory; the Thirty-fifth Tilinoie, Colonel Pholps’ regiment, and the Twenty-fourth Missouri, ‘The Second brigade, under Colonel Vandevere, of the Ninth Iowa. consisted of his own regiment, the Dubuque battory, and Col.

A letter Fram Colonel Carey says that the losses in the Fourth and Ninth Iowa, Thirtyfifth Iiliaois and Twenty- fifth Missouri are from 150 to 200 in each regiment killed and wounded. Only 300 of the Twenty-fourth Missouri wore present, but they lost 29 killed and a large number wounded.

Tho order also states thavevidence has boen received at hendquarters that Major Genoral Sterling Price bas issued commissions or licenses to certain bandits in this Staie, authorizing them to raiso guerrilia force for the purposes of plunder and marauding. Gen. Price ought to know that such a coursor is contrary to the rulos of civilized warfare, and that every man who enlists in such an organization forfeits his lif and becomes an oxt- Taw. All persons are hereby warned that if they join any guerrilla hands thoy will not, if captured, be treated inary prisoners of war, but will be hung as rob- and murderers. ‘Tuot lives shail atone for the bar- ty of ther generale.
