(Signed)"" Sam Jo.sts, Maj. Gen. Congressirnal. KiciiMOvn, Dec.. 21. Consrress is getting ready most important work and. the proceedings after this week will be of the highest importance. The Chairman of the Committee on M:litary Affairs pre irtad in the H ue to-day a bill to continue in service to theS-ofa f the w ar all soldiers now in service, or who fliall h reafter enter the same, and shall remain in their existing organizations. This bill is not a committee re pent but presented for the consideration of-the House and at thb request of the author w.4s referred to his commit tee. Another member presented a resolution that if any part of the at my bi recouscribwd it chall be allowed to "-lect companv and regimental officers. Some debate ensued. : Several other propositions werj presented and all re ferred. The Military Committee reported a bill which provides that hen.a substitute has deserted, or shall hereafter duert; when at the tilne of reception unfit, or when he became. liable to em ii:n iit under present or future laws, the nrincii.al phtll gro into the arniv. This bill will be C'.'isidered in crdei'. A number of persons in thib city having pub-tilut. s have employed counsul to test the' leg i'ity of mv a -t or Congress which nayatteunpt to nlae them in s-.'rviee. The sentiment of Congress is di vided on the sabject. Some are of the opinion that bet ter to do nothing as those who have substitutes w ill all become liable a the end id' three years from th time of putting them in the army. The impresfii'srit bill report ed by the Judiciary Committee a few days ago was taken up and sever alamendments adopted. 'Ibe most impor tant allows; appeal of both parties when dissatisfied at award of ocai rtprisera t State Commissioners. Pro hibiti t.e impressment ol field negroes, except at order of General Commanding Department. The bill passed. A bill Also passed allowing farmers to commute tenth of sw-i't potatoes by paying value in money at rates to be fixed by impressment commi.-siouers. A bill to provide fr wounded and disabled soldiers was j'poftponcd for tpit i! o! 'er Monday next. The Senate passtd u bsll to protect men.bers of Con gress froui the annoyance of passport agents.

THK MEAT QUESTION. , It has becomo a serious question how our armies are to be suppljr.l with meat the coming vvintf r. The Toss i f Tennessee ami a large porthm of' ttrtrthern Ala bama and the whole b'f the Tfans-Mississippi, remarks the Lynchburg Uepuhlicah, have greatly circum scnted our meat raisins conntrv whil th 'hn(r cholera" in various portions c f Wie Oufeileracy has greatly lessened our sources of supnlv. What is to - he done? Our armies mnt be fed with im-at.aUll hazirdj, wk-ther our people are or not. The Kich mon.l Sentinel wjlj au. that the people at home hould at once fUnail their consumptiou of meat, and VOL. V live upon vegetables, poultry, molassa, milk, butter arid other light Mibstanc-tf, wffich.cao te better lis with in the array than beef or bncoi.. Our armies cannot march and figM tfell without rfiieat, while nir people at home-.csri live aimirablv UkQ lighter 'fool. Will not our wives and mothers put the matter at once into practice ? Wilt they not discard their 6ne rounds (if fat beef, and excellent baked barns Irom tbwir -tablos, and leave thm for the use wf the army ? This s really a serious fitter a matter upon which depends the life rf our armies-and the success of our cause. Kvcr.y family slwuhl at once adopt the sugsre&tiwn, and vigorously adhere to it. Then is not enongh f meat in th Oou-ftderacy supply b".th the armies and the people iu prulu- sh.n, where,!, by eciiomy and wise division,' there is an abundance. la it not better that the people at;t not tle soldiers should stint themselves'? We hear some men say they have laid in two, three or four ih. iisnnil ivf5f?t of roik for funilv use. Shonld n t a ii.ran m.rlioli of these SMIllllll'S of meat bo4eft fr k.. -hi!r. ,.iir .iiirei.
