Lawmakers Push Navy and Tax Measures in Washington
In Washington on March 1, congress and officials debated naval prize rules, auctioneers fees, and wartime taxes. Provisions authorize sale of maritime assets before adjudication, and allow the Navy to seize vessels with Treasury-held proceeds. Internal Revenue items touched railroad bonds and stamp taxes, with later remarks on a soldiers library dedication and Gen. Cochrane’s resignation.

Disgraceful Retreat On Strasburg Road
A Winchester dated dispatch reports a Rebel cavalry raid of about 80 men entering Union pickets on the Strasburg road. After skirmishes that left two wounded on each side, the Rebels recaptured prisoners and horses near Strasburg. The Union detachment allegedly pursued beyond Woodstock, then parleyed in the road and failed to guard against a surprise, allowing the enemy to return in force and kill and capture about 200 of the two cavalry units.
