Congressional. WASTIINOTOX, February 8. Thc House refused to second thc previous question in Stevens'bill. Which kills it dead. In th? House, the bill prohibiting tho transportation to the United States of foreigners charged with crime, was refer? red to the Judiciary Committee, The Secretary of War was directed to in? form the House what Southern railroad companies purchased Federa', rolling stock, the amount purchased and amount paid. The Agricultural Committee was ordered to inquire into tin? expediency of appoint? ing a commission to examine tho causes ()f the Texas cattle fever and thc best pr?? ventive. Thc Beconstruction Committee bill came up and was discussed with threat bitter? ness. Raymond made a strong opposing speech. Banks begged Stevens for delay, hoping thc discussion would lead to some plan which would harmonize Congress, the Executive and country. stevens persisted in its defence. There were fifty appeals for delay from all parts of the house. Thc previous question failed of bein- seconded-61 to 92. A| half-dozen amendments, substitutes, Ac, were immediately presented and ordered to bo printed, and the H..usc adjourned till to-morrow. In the Senate, the petition of thc Legis? lature of New Mexico was presented for indemnity for losses from Texan raids dur? ing the war. * A joint resolution to pay the Tennessee Home Guard, raised by Burnside, was re? ferred.

Wlxile at Martinsburg, it was ascer? tained, beyond doubt, that Hunter had been again indulging in his favorite mode of warfare, and alter his return to the Valley, while we were near Washington, among other outrages, the private residences of Mr. Audie? ruinier, a luemuer of the Virginia Senate; Mr. Alexander R. Boteler, an ex-meinber of the Confederate as well as United States Congress, and Edmund I. Lee, a dis? tant relative of tren. Lee. all in Jef? ferson County, with their contents, had been burned by his orders, only time enough being given for the ladies to get out of the house. A number of towns in the South, as wei] tvs private country houses, had been burned by the" Federal troops, and the accounts had been heralded forth in some of the North? ern papers in terms of exultation, ami gloated over by their readers, while they were received by others with apathy. I new came to the conclusion that we had stood this modo of warfare long enough, and that ii was time to open flu; eyes of J the people of the North to its enor? mity by an example in thc way of retaliation. ? did md select th.' cases mention ed as having more merit or greater claims for retaliation than others, ] hut because they had occurred with?a rite limits of t"he country covered by j my command, ami were brought mort? immediately to my attention, i I had often seen delicate ladies, who j had beeu plundered, insulted and rendered desolate by the acts of our most atrocious enemies, and while; they did not edi for ir, yet in tho anguished expression .of their fea- j tutes while narrating their misfor? tunes there was a mute appeal to every manly -sentiment of tay bosom for retribution, which 1 could no longer withstand. The town of Chambersburg, in Pennsylvania, was selected as the one on which retaliation should be made, and Mccausland was ordered to pro? ceed with his brigade, aud that of Johnson and a battery of artillery, to that place, and demanded of the municipal authorities the sum of $l?O,()t)0 in gold, or 8500,000 in United States currency, as a compen? sation for the destruction of the houses named and their contents; and in default of payment to lay the town in ashes, in retaliation for the burning of those houses and others in Virginia, as well as for tho towns which had been burned in other Southern States. A written demand to that effect was sent to the muni? cipal authorities, and they informed what would be the result of a failure or refusal to comply with it. I desired to give the people of Chambersburg an oppotunity of saving their town by making com? pensation for part of the injury done, and hoped that the payment of snell i a sum would have the desired effect, and open the eyes of th?; people of other towns at the North to the ne? cessity of urging upon their Govern? ment the adoption of a different poli? cy. MeCausland was also directed to proceed from Chambersburg toward Cumberland, in Maryland, and levy contribution's in money upon that ami other towns able to bear them, and, if possible, to destroy tho ma? chinery at the coal pits near Cumber? land, and the machine shops, depots and bridges on the baltimore and Ohio Railroad, as far as practicable. On the 29th of July, Mccausland crossed the Potomac near Clear Spring, above Williamsport, and 1 moved with Rhode's and Ramscur's divisions and Vaughn's cavalry to the latter place, while Imbodcn demon? strated with his and Jackson's caval? ry towards Harper's Perry, in order to withdraw attention from Mccaus? land. Breekinridge remained at Mar? tinsburg and continued thc destruc? tion of the railroad. Vaughn drove a force of cavalry from Williamsport and went into Hagerstown, whore he captured and destroyed :i train of cars loaded with supplies. One of lill ode's brigades was crossed over at Williamsport, and subsequently with? drawn. On the 30th, MeCausland being well under way, 1 moved back to Martiu^burg, and on the 31st, the whole infantry force was moved to Bunker Hill, where we remained on I tho 1st, 2d and .??d of August. On the M of August, MeCausland reached Chambersburg. and made the demand as directed, reading to sneh of the authorities as presented I themselves, the paper sent by me. The demand was not complied with, I the people stating'that they were not ! afraid of having their towns burned, .um luab a .icueiai loree was ap? proaching. Tho policy pursued by our arm} on former occasions bad ? been so lenient that they did not suppose the threat was in earnest this time, and they hopedfor speedy relief. MeCausland, however, proceeded to carry out his orders, and tho greater part of the town was laid in ashes. For this act, I alone um re? sponsible, as the officers engaged in it were simply executing my orders, and had no discretion left them. Not? withstanding the lapse of time which l has occurred, and tho result of the war, I am perfectly satisfied with my conduct on Hm occasion, and see no reason to regret it. - Oeil.
