DAILY SENTINEL

Telegraphic Dispatches. REPORTED EXPRESSLY FOR THE DAILY STATE SENTINEL. MORNING REPORT. THE ARMY OF TOE POTOMAC reparation for the Coming Contllrt. BRILLIANT VICTORY IN ARKANSAS. The Rebel Price Outgenerated. EXCITING MILITARY RACE. CONGRESSIONAL NEWS Negro Soldier to be Placed on an Equality with the Whites &C., &C., &C., &C. from New York New York, April 30. A special to the Times says: Officers form the front to night profess to be - lieve that active operations will not be com nienced just now. The enemy is busily engaged in throwing up earthworks and digging rifle pits. covering various fords along the Rapidan. The rebel picket has been strengthened along the whole front and extended further down the river toward our left. Picket firing is again resumed and small skirmishes take place almost daily on the outposts. There is no truth in the report of the rebels concentrating a large force in the Shenandoah Valley near Front Royal The rebel force in the Valley is Early's division of Ewel's corps, which our troops there outnumber two to one Early's forces are augmented by irregular cavairy, of Imboden, White, Mosby and Gilmore, and do not in all amount to six hundred. Something important is expected before long from Gen Averil. Burnside visited Gen. Grant to day on business connected with his Department. The rumor that Hooker has come on from the West and was at Harper's Ferry is utterly un tounded A special to the World says: Senator Howe has prepared a resolution which he will offer tomorrow, for the appointment of a committee to investigate charges preferred by Blair in his speech, and also officers of the Treasury Department, which has just come to light in the currency and printing bureau. A caucus of Republican Senators was held to day upon the above subject and it was decided to have this matter thoroughly investigated. The new fifty percent duty on imported goods went into operation at 1 o'clock this afternoon The merchants who had come forward in extraordinary numbers after the new tariff bill was introduced to Congress, were, from the hour mentioned, quite indifferent as to the withdrawal of these goods, and the press of business has come to a close. The receipts at the Custom House for duties have reached, during the present week, the immense figure of nearly three? million dollars, al most exclusively in coin. A special to the Commercial dated Washington 30, says: the bank bill will be passed by the Senate on Monday, with local and State taxation, although earnest opposition is made to it. It is understood that the Union National Convention are perfecting arrangements for the Baltimor Convention. None of the members advocated postponement. The railroad companies have declined to pass delegates at reduced fares. A Special to the Post dated Washington 30, says: There is nothing new from the Army of the Potemac. The rebel army is quiet. There is no probability that the War Department will grant the request of the Pennsylvania Legislature, to muster out the Reserves for that State in Mav. It is expected that the Senate bill, raising the pay of colored soldiers, will pass the House today. Gen. Shepley, late military Governor of Lousiana, is now Governor of Norfolk. Late news from New Orleans 18th, reports nothing important having occuued at Grand Ecore. The 18th Indiana has arrived at New Orleans From Matagorda. Gen.

Considerable debate ensued. Mr. Clay ot Kentucky said the property of his constituents had been slolea from the plantation not only negroes, but htock and everything elie The neroea who were valuable were put into the military service, w hi!e the useless slave, and women and childieu are supported at the ex pet'se ol the (iovt i iKueni, w ithout a parlirle ol law The Government protected its officers iu fteiling negioes.

You caie no more for a negro it. m jou do for a horse. You are puich tsin the-e negroes with bountie to save white men. My p itience is worn out. I would rather be a slavt-holder thtiti a robber, stealing all over the country. Mr llolm ii) asked, are we prep i red to pla e, by solemn legislation, the blai k upon the -ame tooling with tno while oldiei ? Gcnileman you have got this quest ion to meet. Mr Sieveu siidthe question was whether all the soldiers who wear ihe livery of the Uniou and unrchel under its b inner, are common with the army ot the Union, and who exposed them selves to battle and death, should be placed oil an equality, or whether we weie to keep up an unjust distinction. He despied such a distinction oi troops in the day ol death nnd battle. Why should they not be paid and clothed alike hi tory showed that they had fought as gallantly and bravely a the white men at their tide, and yet this lnlamou and defrauding distinction was to be kept ui. Let not '.lit. nation lor a moment s tnciioii it, let it not go loi th as the opinion of this body th it the black and red men are not to betieated like other men who perilled their live in their country's defense.
