140 Superior Street, 18 THE PLACE TO GET THEM. if Sf-nd fur a All boi told at prltea MORNING LEADER How the Rebels Were Taken In and Done For. Fer. The Second Louisiana (JavalrT were taken in," beyond Alexandria, Lonisiana, in trne Yankee style. Oar foroes parnoed them to a place called Henderson's Bill, where they arrived at nightfall.

The 16th Indiana, mounted infantry, made a detour of sixteen niles through the rain and mud, and came upon the rear of the Louisiana Cavalry when the following scene oc curred Colonel Redfield's men, dismounted, ad vanced in small equeds directly up to the rebel pickets, greeting them heartily with, How are you, boja 7 and various elaps on the back, like friends rather than enemies. This confiJence quite disarmed the rebels, who said Why, who are you 7" "Why, the Third Texas don't you know us? We have oome to help you against these Yankees." Hurrah I Bully for you In this cold, rainy night, what could be pleasanter than friends, and especially friends to Help against tne confounded Yankees After getting well warmed, our boys said to them: "New, boys, you must surrender, for we are the damned Yankees themselves. No you don't." Bat we Surrender and sit down. And so the disagreeable truth came upon these damp Louisiana fellows. Picket after picket was, in this way, successfully captured and sent to the rear, without the firing of a shot or alarming the main body.

Captain Doxey then entered tne re Be I camp with his cavalry, while a body of infantry suppo ts were deployed on his right There he oaptured almost without resistance, the surprised and astonished enemy. Four pieoes of artillery were captured, two just as they were being brought into line one of their officers sayinr, "Don pre, they are our own boys. Unfortunately for him It did not prove correct, and the four guns are now ours, audi fancy the too confiding officer finds himself just now belong to us also. A squad of itedfield command sur rounded a house in which a party of rebels were engaged in preparing their fru gal repast, and the sounds from within indicated that they were quite comfortable in their minds at least, if their bodies were not. One of his men then knocked at the ooor.

"Who's there?" Federals None of your joking come in." The door was opened, and the gray backs were a little astonished at the sight of the blue bellies, as they are pleased to call us in their sportive moods. (I believe the rebels have such moods occasionally.) "By that's so," said one of them, who drew and discharged his pistol. His arm was at once disabled by a snot from one of our men, and the order was given them to surrender at once, or they would be sent to another and a hotter place. They quietly obeped, and our men took the whole party prisoners, and found the wounded man to be the famous scout Bailey Smith, who, as Colonel Lnoas said, had given us as muoh trouble as any oth er man the distnc. Interview Between the President and Geo.

Thompson. A Washington despatch of the 8th says George Thompson had an interview with President Linooln yesterday, whioh was satisfactory to both parties. In the course of conversation the President said, in reference to the Emancipation Proclamation, that the paramount idea of the Uoneutn tion was the preservation or tne uepuDiio, and thai he had never for a moment doubt- ee the right and the power of the Execu tlve to issue such proclamation, whenev er it was manifest that, like a patient's diseased limb, life could be saved only bv amputation. Public sentiment nad advanced siowiy but surely, and he had moved just as fast as it seemel to him he could move and De sustained. He could not have felt jusfi fied in the Emancipation issue nntil all other means of restoring ot preserving tho Republic had failed, and he had no con sciousness of having transcended his pow ers.

I do not see," said he, how any man standing in my shoes could have done otherwise than 1 have done. At the close of the interview he invited the party into the State Dining Rooms, to see the painting commemorating the first reading of the Proclamation to the labt net. now executing by Mr. Carpenter, of New York. A curious trick of rifle shooting was performed at Pans, the other dy.

Swiss gentleman backed himself to take aim with his carbine, then support it witn his right arm, then wi'Jt his left hand put his hat over the mottle, and hit theoentre of the target. Tnis he did three times, and landed his money. Paul Morphy, the chess player, has just returned from Paris to New Orleans. He went to Paris about four years ago as loyal man, beat all the Europeans at chess, and was flattered and honored immensely. Ht nade his late vasit as a rebel, got beat at chess and attracted no attention whatever.

The Arabian Horse. In early youth immense pains are lav ished upon him, and he is rarely mounted before he is two years and a half old but his education has been such that he is by that time almost qualified to take eare bote of himself and his master. When the rider dismounts, and wishes his steed to remain stationary, he has merely to pass tne Dnaai over his head he has never any reason to ask a man to hold his horse for him. At market, or elsewhere, he leaves him for hours without disquietude, and re turns to find him standing stook still. This has been taught by a very simple pro cess, xne Dridie once over his head, and dragging on the ground, a slave is stationed beside him to tread upon it whenever the animal is about to go off, and so as to give a disagreeable shock to the bars of the mouth.

This is the only thing approach ing to harshness in the training of the Arab although, indeed, if the training should iau, there are spurs employed suoh as bo European would dream of using. The society for the prevention of cru. eity to animals would nave little scope for employment in Algeria. Should any ehilaren, too young to reason, tease or ill use the horses tethered in front of the tent. the Arab wife will cry "Children, beat not the horses.

Wretches, it is they who nourish you. Do yon wish that Allah should curse our tent?" She does not apava bas -awn. bwebaael, 4f ti misuses his horse, but complains of him to the chief of the tribe. Ub, my Lord, although he is all we have, yet my husband takes him on idle journeys, overrides him, taxes him beyond his strength. Scold him, I beseech you, in the name of Allah.

Lead him back into the ways of our forefathers. Above all, however, don't tell him that it was I who suggested this to you. Ihe Arab horse is watered only once in the twenty-four hours. He is often oblig ed ts oontent himself with dates instead of barley: these are given him before they a perfectly ripe, when their stones are soft, and are eaten stone and all. In the spring, he is turned out on the pastures but in the summer, if his master can afford he gets a little barley.

On this scanty fare, a good horse in the desert is expected, ir necessary, to accomptisn, lor nve or six Successive days, distances of a hundred and twenty-five to a hundred and fifty miles and, after a couple of days' rest and good feeling, he will be quite well to repeat the feat. If he shakes himself at any renting place, or paws the ground with his foot, it is held that there is no oc casion to pull np in the journey; and if ould know, at the end of a day of exo ssive fetigue, how far you can yet depend upon your horse, get off his back, and pull him strongly by the tail if he remains unmoved, you may still rely upon him. "It is of no very rare occurrence to hear of a horse doing one hundred and eighty miles in twenty-four hours The requisites which the men of the deaert look for in him are, that "he should carry full-grown man, his armes and a change clothing, food for both rider and him self, a flag on a windy day and, if it be ceoessary, drag a dead body behind him." A horse of the Sahara is calculated to live from twenty to twenty-five years, and mare from twenty-five to thirty. The animals prime is indicated by the following Arabian proverb Seven years for my brother. Seven years for myself, 8even years for my enemy.

The Arabs prefer mares to horse nly for th akice following reason: l. The pecuniary profit: for the stories that represent the sons of the desert turn ing their backB upon proffered treasure, and re-mounting the beloved steed that they cannot bring themselves to part witn, are a little imaginary, and as much as four thousand pounds has been known to "have been received for the progeny of a single mare. 2. Because the mare does not neigh in time of war like the horse a most important matter. 8.

She is less sensitive to hun ger, thirst and heat, and will feed on the some herbage as the sheep and camels. Chambtrt Journal. Young Women for Compositors. Now that compositors are so scarce and there aro some serious strikes in Cincinnati and othej planes, the Chicago Post has the following on the above subject: It is idle to suppose that young women will not learn to be compositors. As we have said, there is no branch of their duties that is not peculiarly adapted to fe male labor, except possibly setting type on morning papers, which branch of the business give employment to about one-sixth of the oraft the othsr five-sixths are engaged in work that women can per form just as well as men.

The highest, as well as the most remunerative, branch of industry to which women can now as pire, is that of teaching; it is hard labor, the oompensation is small, and the employment limited. There are about two hundred educated young women employed in Chicago as teaohers. The highest pay received by these is four hundred dollars a year, and but few reoive that sum. The average pay does not exceed three hund red and fifty dollars a year, or seven dollars a week. If those ladies were compositors doing ten hours' work each day, and closing labor at six ciock p.

tney would now receive eighteen dollars a week, or over nine hundred dollars a year, and that too for labor not half so oppressive mentally or physically as the labor of the school room. Instead of two hundred finding employment in Chicago, double that number could find work to-merrow, We have no daubt that four hundred la dies competent to perform the work of compositors could obtain constant employ ment in Chicago at a regular compensa tion of six hundred dollars a year, for regular worl of ten hours a day, and lib eral allowance for all extra duties. The business can be learned in one-fifth of the time required to be fitted for teaching, and in less time than is neoessary to be qualified for any other other business. With such inducements it is idle to suppose that women can be kept out of the printing business much longer by any possible com bination. The Speculation Manin.

A New York paper thus burlesques the present speculating mania "All parties, except the salaried and working men, seem to have an interest in pushing on the in flation and sending up prioes.and new bub bles are continually put afloat of all de tcriTitions. On the bulletin of the bank era beard it was announoed that a son soap company" has been organixed by Tenup Sontmargin, with a oapital of 100,000 shares of $10 each. The property of the company consists of a fee of a grind-stone, one large steam engine with a wooden walking-beam, tin boiler, on which no payment had been made, a large wooden vat, in relation to which there is a litigation in the United States court, and a favorable decision is shortly ex. peoted. The property of the company is tituated on Long Island, in a building on which there are claims for two years rent, but the company confidently expect that.

with a hot summer and a good run of fat, their claims will bs removed. Mr. William Bothery, an eminent lawyer England, and between the years of 1621 nd I860, legal adviser to the Treasury on Bill matters connected with the slave trade, died recently in England, aged 89 years.

to the Cleveland WASHINGTON, April 12. DIBATI oa THE KXPOLSIOH Of MSG. The debate on the expulsion of Long continues to be the great feature, and nearly absorbs all other news. The President's last evening reoeption had to be postponed in consequence of its continuance. The galleries are densely packed and even the lobbies are filled with the wondering crowd, unable to gain admittance to the galleries.

The leading speech to-day was made by Mr. H. Pendleton. Some of the most prominent Unionists pronounce it the ablest speech by the Damoerots on any subjeot this session. He was complimented at the close on its ability by suoh radicals as Winter Davis, and his own side went into extacieB over He set out with the proposition that the House was a deliberate body, whose ohief function was discussion, and that this should be limited by nothing but rule and decorum.

A member might say any thing on its floor, provided he did it in a No Bpeeebas aaade to-day on the Admin- stration side oompare with the great ef forts of Schenck and Winter Davis yester, day. The most noteworthy epeeoh was by Clay Smith in favor of Expulsion. The House meets again at six o'clock for a night session. Mr. Colfax has given no- ice that he wiU call for a vote next Thurs day at half past twelve o'clook.

GENERAL GRANT. General Grant arrived from the front this morning. He expeots to return by the late evening train. THE TAX BILL. The Tax bill is now in the hands of the printers.

THE EXPULSION CASE. The expulsion debate and adjournment wiU be laid over till to-morrow in honor of the late John C. Rives. This may delay its introduation till Thursday. THE SLIDING SCALE ON WHISKEY.

It is believed that the eliding scale on whiskey will be increased. It is certain that the tax from July will be on dollar. TAXING NATIONAL BANKS. A higMy important bill from the Ways and Means Committee was introduced to day, taxing National Banks. It is understood to have the sanction of the Secretary of the Treasury.

It proposes a tax on all banks by Congress of one per cent each month on all bills in circu lation; penalty, one per oent. as provided for. Any refusal to make an accurate monthly account to the Diatriot Assessor the bank will be recovered for the use of the United Sla'es, and after one year from passage, tha circulation of any suoh notes is strictly forbidden. The Senate Foreign Relation Committee have deoided not to report on Winter Da vij" resolution about French intervention in Mexico, as they regrl it exceedingly dangerous, aud think iu passage by the Senate would probably cause war with France. Several resolutions of different dates have been addressed to the Secretary of the Navy by the Senate and House of Representatives, inquiring into the efficienoy of the iron clads aud for the report of the naval commanders.

The House to-day received a reply from which the following statements are gath ered. On the 13th of April, 1863, Rear Ad mi- ral Dupont was directed to remain inside the bar of Charleston and prevent the enemy from ereoting battjries on Morris Is land, whioh order he briefly acknowledged but never obeyed. On the 14th of April the President di rected Dupont and General Hunter to take the batteries on Morris Island the order was not obeyed or attempted to be obeyed, so far as the Department was advised. The order of the Secretary of the Navy to Dupont to co-operate with General Gil more, was not obeyed. General Hunter reports that the morning after the attack of the iron clads on Charleston, whioh of Dupont's plans the army had no pait, he was ready to proceed and take possession of Morris Island, and that the afternoon after the iron clad attack on Sumter, the troops on Folly Island were in the very act of crossing Light House Inlet, when they were recalled by Dupont He had resolved to retire, and when 1m portuned to assist in preventing the ereo- tion of important works, the Admiral'i answer was that he would not fire another shot.

Oa the 20th of June General Gil more said, I can do nothing until Admi ral Dupont's successor arrives and gets ready to work. The Admiral has no in struetions, and dees not feel at liberty to put his vessels into action on the eve of relinquishing his command, yet the De partment had written Jane 6th, directing him to afford all the aid and assistance in his power. The plan of attack on Fort Sumter, April 7th, was not eommanicated to the War Department previous to its being made, nor did Dupont ask for more troops, or on occasion did he protes to the Depart ment against making such an attack. No order was given to act in any manner against his judgment in the operations before Charleston, but was advised that the Department did not desire to argue an at tack upon Charleston with inadequate means, and directing him to abandon the idea of If after careful examination, he deemed the number of iron elads insufficient to render the cap-tare reasonably certain. No suggestions or plans of that officer, or requisition for more ships were refused or denied.

For the dispatch and reports called for, refer ence is made to the documents accompany ing the last aanual report of the Navy De partment. Hair past 10 r. x. The debate is still progressing in the House on the expulsion of Long. Rollins has discovered that the resolu tion to expel oannot be amended to resolu tion of censure under the rales and opin ion of the best parliamentary, therefore the chances are that Long is likely to escape without any punishment what ever, still efforts will be made the censure him, and it is possible that the Chair may rule it in order.

Garrett Davis introduced a bill to pre vent the assembling of Court Martial to try offenses not arising in the land or forces, and fines every member so offending from $1,000 to $2,000 and imprisonment from I to 2 years. Sumner introduced into the Senate a new bill to establish a Freedman Bureau, placing it in the Treasury instead of the War Department. It guards very oarefullythe interests of th J-men and prean regulations for their employment. It is proposed to be sustained by the proceeds of the leases of rebel lands The House will adjourn at a late hour to-night over to Thursday. General good feeling prevails, and but little excitement.

Long himself seems to take the matter composedly. FROM CAIRO. CAIRO, April 11. A prisoner who escaped from Forrest at Jackson, Tennessee, on the 7th. has ar- m-wMifuu.

CONGRESSIONAL. WASHINGTON, April 11. HOUSE. Continuation of Mr. Davis' speech.

He, (Mr. Davis,) did not envy gentlemen who refused to expel a gentleman from the House and afterward voted that he was unworthy to hold a seat here. The gentle man had proclaimed himself a friend of the enemies of the United States, in viola tion of a solemn oath to sustain the Con stitution. Mr. Frink made a lengthy speech in opposition to expulsion, and also in opposition to the sentiments expressed by his colleague, Long.

After few remarks by Whaley, Mr. Demont said that when Long wanted a warm place in the heart of Fernando Wood, the only way was to show that he was a traitor. House adjourned at 11:20. SENATE. Mr.

Wade Introduced the House bill en abling the people of Nebraska to form a State government. Mr. foster objected to the bill solely on the ground that the insignificant population of the territory had not clearly ex pressed a wish to become a 8tate, and the proposed measure was a dictation to them oh the part of Congress. Air. Wads replied that through their re presentative in the other House, they had expressed a desire, and he was supposed to Know and represent their desires.

The enbject was then laid over. The Senate then proceeded to the con sideration of the Naval Appropriation blU. The amendment appropriating $184,000 for the purchase of lands at the Charles-town Navy Yard was adopted. HOUSE. The galleries were denselv no aorday and yesterday.

Air. Stevens, from the Committee on Ways and Means, reported a bill to prevent the depreciation of currency. Consideration postponed. House resumed consideration of the res olution to expel Long. Aldndge said that this resolution was wrongfully brought here, the only "object being to stir up a strife and ill feeling at a time when we ought not only to have good fellowship and kiod feeling, but Union and sentiment, referring to the Constitutional provisions he denied the right and power of the House to expel the gentleman from unio under this resolution, the House could not expel him for opinion's sake, the Constitution submitted no such ques tion.

He eaid that he disagreed with the gentleman'- also from the from Maryland, (nni. had not oome to the conclusion that Secession was a fixed fact, and that the alternatives mentioned by the gentleman from Ohio have not yet been presented to the Country. It is possible however, that they may be. He referred to the New York Times, which says that Speaker Col fax's seal had outrun his discretion, and that this resolution is neither right nor expedient, and the Evening Post says that Long speech was a perfectly legitimate expression. If the war was conducted on a proper policy the seceded States may be brought back, but carry it on lor sub- jugatien and you never can accomplish puroose.

crais of sympathising wite the rebels, but you do not believe it; the charge is for wicked party purposes, lie said the Republican was the revolutionary party in opinions and praotice, for in overthrow- rig the constitution they overthrew the Union. Mr. Pendleton defended the course of Long, and said his speech wae made under the rules of the House, and at the proper time The debate continued, being participated in by Garfield, Washburne, Myers and others, until five r. it, when a reoess was taken. Mr.

Spalding, of Ohio, said that some men were willing to become famous by consenting to become infamous. He (Bpalding) had carefully read and oonsid- ored the obnoxious speech of the man from Ohio, (Long), and he found no palative in or about it. His colleague, Long, commenced his wild harrangue by announcing his intention to express the conviction of bis judgment, nothing was said without premeditation or under excitement by Long, and yet at the commencement of his singular harrangne he made a vile fling at our Chief Magis trate. He denied the truth of the paper read by Fernando Wood yesterday, that he (Spaulding) made a speech in favor of the dissolution or the Union. Mr.

Smith of Kentucky, did not believe such sentiments as were contained in Long's speech should be ottered in this House. He referred to the acts of Buohanan, Floyd, and others, and declared that as slavery was the oause of the war it ought to be removed, so that we might have an independent nation of freemen. We should whip down the rebellion. If we cannot do that let ns subjugate ths South and populate it witn better people. If gentle-men sympathise with the Southern rebellion let them honestly define their posi tion.

Mr. Harrisgton characterised the Reso lution as a partisan proceeding, and not prompted by patriotism. In the course of his remarks he said the people of New England have no stomaoh for fighting, Mr. Boutwell asked what authority he had for the aesertion. Mr.

Harrington replied that Massacha setts' agents in Indiana are reoruiting ne groes to fill the quota of the former State. Indiana sends white men into the field. Mr. Boutwell spoke at length in opposi tion to this charge, saying Massachusetts could draft withojlt producing a riot. Mr.

Harrington said the name of Indiana was written on every battle-field. While Harrington was speaking there was some hiBsmg in the galleries. Mr. Eldridge said they had suffered enough from New England men in the gal leries. After a short debate, during which some one asked how the gentleman knew they were New England men.

The Speaker protem, Mr. Rollins, of New Hampshire, directed the doorkeeper to remove from the galleries all persons who may repeat the disturbance. Mr. Broomall offered an amendment to the pending resolution, declaring Alexander Long to be an nnwerthy member of the House, and that the Speakar read this resolution to said Long during the session of the House. Messrs.

Holman and Eldridge raised points of order that the alleged offence was committed in Committee of the Whole, therefore the amendment could not be considered. The speaker over-ruled the point. Mr. Winfield spoke on the subject claiming that there always had been war with the Democrats and always should be. This war had not been precipitated on the oountry by the Democratic party or any of its members, Because he was opposed to sending Commissioners to Richmond, he was to be told by his colleague, Fernando Wood that he ceased to be a Democrat.

On the 22J, Halleok replied, authorising him to undertake saoh operation as might deem best. On the 20th of January Halleok wrote about the matter and left it entirely to Gen. Gilmore's judgement sad discretion, and said "with the means at your command it is expeeted of yon to open an outlet to cotton or opea a field for the enlistment of colored troops. The advantages may be sufficient to justify ths expense, bat simply as military operations, I attaeh very little importance to sue expend i.urei." ttumore urged in reply the oeeucatiom of Florida as an outlet for cotton, lumber and other products, and preventing ths rebel from obtaining supplies of beef, and to establish railroad oommunisatloa elsewhere by securing and using the rails of Fernandina St. Mary's to obtain colored troops, and inaugurate measures for the speedy restoration of Florida to the Union.

The only step taken by the President seems to be the following: Major General Gilmore; I understand that an effort is being mads by some worthy gentlemen to reconstruct the loyal State of Florida. Florida is in your Department and it is not unlikely you may be therein person. I have given Mr. Hay commission as Major and sent him to you with some blank books and other blanks to aid you in reconstruction. He will explain the manner of using ths blanks, also my general views on the sub ject It is desirable for all to co-operate, but if irreconcilable differences of opinion arise, you are master.

I wish the thing done in the most speedy way possible, so that when done it lies within range of ths late proclamation on that subject Detail of labor will of course have to be dons by others, but I shaU be greatly obliged if you will give it sueh general supervissioa as yoo eaa find consistent with yourmors A.

The first finds the enemy, and beats him; the second finds him, and succeeds ia getting away. General Mouieuan is now attempting a change of bas ia the face of public opinion, and is endeavoring to escape the consequences of having ea- oaped from the Peninsula.
