The enemy after this were held in check, at every point, while the command, having felt the position, fell back to AmißßVille. From information obtained from leliable sources, it was ascertained that the column struck the rear of A. P. Hill’s command. .. The advance of Longstreet’a corps passed through Thornton’s Gap and Sperryville on Thursday, and Friday morning at-6 o’clock it readied Culpeper. Hill’s command waß immediately in hiß rear.. To-day the . cavalry moved up to Gaines’Gross Roade, where the enemy’s pickets were encountered and driven in, but the main command was beyond reach. As Gen. Ouster’s orders were solely toas certain the position of the enemy, in obedience to orders he fell back to Amiesville. Our loss during the two days* reconnoissance will probably not exceed six killed and thirty wounded. Lieutenant Sabin, of General Custer’s staff, was severely wounded in the side by a-shell, and waß left on the field. The enemy Baw fit neither to parole nor take him away, and this morning he was brought in.' -•/. . During the most exciting time of yesterday a horse in front of Colonel Gray was killed. Colonel Gray’s horse fell over the disabled animal, and before the Colonel could regain his feet he was run over by a whole squadron of led horses belonging to the skir mishers. His escape from fatalinjury iB attributed to the fact that many of the horseß were barefooted. .GENERAL LEE’S PLANS.—An ex-officer of the Army of the Potomac , writes to the World in speculation of General Lee’s present designs: By this time it is plain to us that he is in no hurry to get round to his old line of defence. If he was, he could have been out of the Shenandoah valley some days ago. Now, what does he mean to do! Does it occur to us that he may mean to recroßs the Potomac in case he can throw our army off and send it in full trot toward the rebel capital, with the view of cut ting off hiß line of retreat! I may. add; that it is possible he is directed by Daviß to Btay as long as he can in the valley, in order to menace Maryland, and produce a good moral effect on their cause. Their reverses have of late been so greafcj thatj unless Their loiees, all will be tip with. Them. Besides,-If Lee Mb back to bin old lines, Britain wilUtob abort in her step to recognize the South. It is in view of this that the great heads of the rebellion wish to hold their,darling anny in of offence, and direct its chief to outwit the Union general, and save the cause of his failing country. A force may be sent Lee from the Southwest, though it can ill be spared there, to enable him to strike at the heart of our country, and, with thiß last effort, “do or die.” It will be well for our generals to keep this possible move in view, and to be ready to meet it. They have a most wary general to cope with, as they, by this time, well know, and the only way to meet his moves is to keep them well in view, not to let him, by the covered natureof ground, or by means of his dashing cavalry, mask his strategy. THE WAR IN THE SOUTHWEST. Evacuation of Jackson, Miss. [Correspondence Cincinnati Gazette. ] Gaiko, July 25.— We received last evening’ infor mal ion of very interesting nature from our reporter, jußt arrived from Jackson, who witnessed the evacu ation of that place*; From him we learn that on Thursday, the 16th inst., Gen. Parke made an ad vance upon the enemy’s works. After proceeding some four hundred yards he was opposed by a South CaTolinalegion or regiment. These men had never been under fire. After an engagement of three quarters of an hour they ran, having lost about three hundred men killed. After. night set ;in - the rebels had a band of music on their works which, played Dixie, and other tunes, IUDDOiii to dsbuUmljt offfliutvfl to tha myrnisrii Trnon mo oay Drone it was rnimn the rebel piefcets Jinq been mtiiarawni Many ef the soldiers crept up to the work* and ascertained that, during ihe night, Johnston and his troops had evacuated the place. Soon other soldiers hurried in, and a scene of plunder and destruction took place. It was brought to an end by General Blair’s division entering the tbwn and restoring order. 0h inquiry, it appeared that the evacuation began at 6 o’clock on the preceding evening, and was comple ted before day. - Fifty or Bixty oars were found at the depot. Night before last a fire bad raged in the town. It became evident, on investigation, that the llames were not the result of our shells, but that ten or.t welve stores, containing commissary goodß which could not be carried away, had been set on fire, and a conflagra tion 4 enßued until five or six houses had been con sumed. This destruction, added to what occurred on the previous occupation of the place by the national troops Borne weeks ago, has left Jackson but a poor wreck, looking little like the capital of V great State. Our informant vißited the late headquarters of General Johnston, and found them safely placed in an excavation where no shot could strike or shell penelrate. Some of the prisoners said the fact was characteristic of the man; that he has a marvellous facility for finding out safe spots. After the place was in General Sherman’s hands hundreds of de serters from the rebel army began to pour in. ' They said the struggle was no. longer hopeful, and that there was no chance of success remaining, and they were glad to get to our army, and, would fight against the old flag no longer. On the afternoon of the day on which the place was occupied, (Friday), General Sherman sent out the cavalry with orders to destroy the railroad bridges and culverts, so as to interrupt communication.^ .Jeff bouse Xxcht. wvorhmilea by some ol ike BoiJUr..

A CONGEATULATOEY OBDEE. ReADQUAIIJ'ISHG DEtfAHTEnEWT OP THE SOUTH, Mo KRIS ISLATm, S, C., July 13, 1863. The Brigadier General commanding presents his congratulations and'thanks to the army which he hasi the honor to command for their brilliant victory of ,the 10th imtant, which places them three miles nearer the; rebel stronghold of Sumpter, the first among all our country’s defences against foreign foes that felt the pplluting tread of traitors. Our labors,-however, are not over. They are just begun, and wliile the spirea of the rebel city still loom up in the. dim. distance; hardships and pri vations must be endured before our hopes and ex pectations canifiDd full* fruition in victory. Xiet us emulate the heroic deeds of our brothers in arms at Gettysburg;and Vicksburg, and add to that roll of fame which will be transmitted to a grateful posteiity, . . „ Special thanks are due to Brigadier General vodges Bnd his-command forthe untiring energy and patient endurance displayed-by them in erecting the batteries oh'Folly I&land, under every con ceivable-disadvantage, and to Brigadier General George C. Strong #nd hie command, for the heroic gallantry with which they carried the enemy's bat teries on Morris Island, this being the first instance, during the war, in-which powerful'batteries have been assaulted successfully by a column disembarked under a heavy artillery fire. • Q,.

Headquarters First Military ‘District, Charleston’, May 24,'1863. Captain You'Will please proceed to the south eDd .of Morris Island, and'examine -the batteries there being ereotedy and be prepared td make an oral report this , evening'on their condition, efficiency, and location,. Ypu will confer with Ool; Graham, com man din gwe take the. folio wing description!, Theattack described took place on the 18th: Strong’s brigade marched in column up past the old building o.nlftbe right of our batteries;- then deployed and adduced in line a short distance, then deployed again, and marched up the beach in close column, Putnam?o brigade following at supporting distiance andvhalting at a point where they had been ordered tojrtop. Fort Sumpter saw the move ment, and pitched her shells over among the troops: but.hurt none&of them. When Strong’s troops, led by their.gallant general, had got two-thirds the distance to the iprt the cannonading ceased, to avoid injuring ourfown troops, and then the rebelß in Fort Wsghei.Msyhe-out in full strength. A thou sand muskets filmed almost together, and poured a deadly fire intfifour troops. The guns were brought to bear on grape and canister hailed down upon them.AWith'a shout they advanced, at a word from the General, on a double-quick, unfalter ingly, fire. Musket™ rat ted;* Sumpter’s shells burst all around them, bullets whistled,: canister hummed, grape ploughed along the ground, the fort was. lighted up almost con stantly with the fire from howitzerß, rifles, and mus kets—not in fitful flashes,-'but with steady, gleam ing sheets of flame. They never staggered—never wa vered—did not stop for the many who fell, or listen" to the-moans of the wounded./ They reached the ditch and crossed it, some on planks, some rushing down in and toiling up,'some seeking a better en trance to the left, .where-the ditch was, however, filled with water. .As they were making the cross ing, howitzers in the bastions kept up a raking fire, prostrating many bodies, but not deterring the mass! Over they went, and clambered up the parapets. But me mini met tlera fiFsnjurnnrn, amaoniaa am attsfti Hit iursMHt Butsioei tne paraucta auoires and ■*’“ wwm tnimwstnfi peppered them with birllete, anr] gave no chance to respond effectually. Some retreated without fur ther effort, the majority struggled ou manfully, and charged down over the parapet, driving all before them. There was certain danger now in retreating; uncertain danger in staying or advancing. The rebels were driven from one corner over a traverse, and the 6th Con necticut colore planted on the parapet. But from the opposite Bides of the fort, from behind parapets, and traverses, and bastions, the fire was kept-up. Two guns commanded our position with their volleys of grape. All attempts to reach them commenced with slaughter and ended with retreat The filth Massachusetts (colored) found a place lower down, and charged bravely over the parapet, their officers urging them to distinguish themselves. But the rebels made a dash at them with all their bitter feelingsiagainst negro troops aroused, and neglected all. else for a moment in attacking the negroes. They took some prisoners, - slaugh tered many; bayoDets clashed and mußkets rattled, and the Massachusetts blacks got bewildered. They barely saved one of their flags, and the Btaffof anoth er,'and|then, with thinned ranks, retreated through the showers of .iron hail, leaving their colonel in the fort,- many officers unaccounted for, and many black bodies, lifeless or disabled, along their track. All the other regiments got, wholly or in part, on or over the parapets, but all were finally forced to flee. The contest on their part was a short but bloody one. Had these regiments held on together but a mo ment longer, they would have had a whole brigade to help them, but the difficulties were greater than had been anticipated, and they could not be longer held where victory seemed so impossible. With one or two regiments it was a rout; they went off helter- Bkelter, running wildly, anxious only for some shel ter from the rebel fire. Others marched off as or . deriy as if executing a simple manoeuvre, carrying their arms and taking such pf their wounded as were outßide the ditch: ADVANCE OF PUTNAM’S BRIGADE. The brigade of Col. II. 1 S. Putnam, with his 7th New Hampshire Regiment on the right, when the advance waß ordered, moted to the rear of the old house behind our batteri«B, and deployed into line.

Col. Putnam wasone of the first to reach the parapet, surrounded bK his . brave New Hamp shire 7th boyß, and inspiring- his whole brigade hy ing fearless, gallant conduct. In approaching the ditch, the retreating m4n of the first charge were met, and some portions- of the brigade - were detained for! a moment, but not perma nently demoralized. Gel. Putnam sent .Lieut. Col. Abbott, of the 7th, and Major Henderson, his adjutant general, to intercept stragglers, rally those who halted, and hurry forward all troops. They did this under a very hot fire, which was as terrible a. short distance from the fort as in it. The rear divi sion of the 7th and a portionof the 100th New York were massed together, crossed the.ditch, and essayed to get a foothold inside from one point, while the G2d and 67th Ohio went to another.' Every regiment behaved nobly, and all have a;fearful roll of casual ties to attest the persistency and energy of their ; effort to obtain and hold the fort. One corner of * the fort only wag ours, and thit was swept by grape andcanißter and exposed to musketry. Thetroopß looked back, saw they were j alone, and began, to. falter. - General Strong had been up and sneered and rallied Mb quondam classmate, and even friend, Oelonel Putnam, and returned to try and bring up reinforcements,. Colonel Putnam implored, entreats ed, : commanded-hls to hold on but a moment longer, and then another minute, and then a mo ment again, but no help came. \He had sent a mes-- senger to ask for reinforcements. He did not know.- that Generals Strong and Seymour had both been carried from, the .field wounded. The messenger learned the fact, and went to Gen. Gillmore. The latter anxious, but still cool and clear-headed, told him the reserve^ a Fresh brigadej hmj SSf 3 1 ' fcrwuid m »oon. M it w.u wtt,a foothiw fi&dbeen, . gained in the rebel work, fieforethlec meeseaeer kad left another arrived to say. that Putnam was killed, and that our troops had retired from the fort entirely. That was the result, briefly told. General Stevenson’s brigade was being conducted by Colo nel Turner, of General Gillmore’s staff, to reinforce Colonel Putnam, when the news of his death and the retirement of his troops reached them in sea son to prevent the whole rebel fire taking effect on them. Sadly and disappointed they, turned-back, and the battle-field waß left to the. enemy, and our' dead and wounded. The rebel fire ceased, the am bulances met the stretchers at the edge-of danger, and the groans of the wounded, the chirps of the : crickets and the beating of the surf were soon all the sounds we could hear, for the fire on both Bides had ceased. The rebels, too, had dead to bury and wounded to care for, and peace was to reign for a night at least. . Our fresh troops.fell baok to the entrenchments in good order, occupying all our old positions; and the shattered regiments rallied-around their torn, jburned and smoked standards, to go into, camp and call the names of the absent forever. 5 : THE toss o? OFFICERS was found to be unusually large in proportion to the enlisted men. Col. Putnam, the accomplished gen tlem an, had been: instantly killed by a grapeshot in the head. Gen. Seymour had received a painful wound in the foot fromagrapeshot. Another from the same, discharge passed the breast of Lieutenant S. S. Stevens, his aid-de-camp.. Gen. Strong, while striving to rally stragglers, got a ca nister shot through the thigh, making a severe but not fatal wound. Hiß adjutant general, Lieu tenant A. H.

Lieutenant Colonel Green, of Cffe 43fifc j?? whesv firm woe fisdiy shattered by a shell, said, “Ob I thank God-so' much for.the privilege; I went In to live or die as H‘e please.” He stood right under the'uolifted sword of their brave Colonel Shaw, on the very top of the parapet, as he-cried, “rush on, rush on, boys!” and then suddenly fell, quickly followed by Myers himself. ; No man can pass among these suffererß, ; so pa tient, so cheerful, and hear them exprens their -de sire for a speedy recovery, first • and only, that they may (the almost universal expression) u try it over again;” also, their firm conviction that ■ they are soldiers for Jesus, to help on his war of freedom for all the oppressed, and.not be inspired with-deepest abhorrence of slavery and unquenchable deßire for freedom of their race. I have seen much to admire in .them as servants, laborers in the field; as soldiers; in camp, on the battle-field, but never so much in all these relations that is so truly manly, heroic, and sublime as exhibited in the furnace fires of war.

Ail Important Spcccli by A. 11, Stephens. [From the Richmond Dispatch, July 23 ] . Vice President who is on his way. to -tHe Sontß, Btoppcri At CtiArtottr, tf. <3., uu * filskt. x&d wis saimaxd 1# s.lisg4 izzisszsz oitizsnu. In reply lie made them a apeeoli about an hour in length. He commenced hy alluding to the invasion of Maryland and Pennsylvania by Gen. -. Lee’s army; said that it had whipped the eoemy on 'their own soil, and obtained vast supplies for our own men, and was now ready to' again meet the. enemy on a new field. Whatever might be the movements and objects of Gen. Lee, he had en’ire confidence in his ability to accomplish what:he undertook, for in ability and intellect he was a head and shoulders above any man in the Yankee army. He commended Gen. Lee for keeping his own se crets, and told the people not to be discouraged be cause they did not hear from Lee over his own signa ture. ,He would come out all right in the end. Mr. Stephens then spoke of the surrenderof Vicks burg, and said that it was hot an occurrence to cause discouragement or gloom; that the loss of Vickßburg was not as severe a blow as the loss of .Fort Pillow, Island No. 10, or New Orleans. The Confederacy had survived the loss of these points, and would survive the loss of Vicksburg, Port Hud son, and other places. Suppose, said he, we were to lose Mobile, Charleston, and Richmond, it would not affect the heart of the Confederacy, We couldand would survive such losses, and finally secure our in dependence. He was not at all discouraged at the prospect; he never had the “blues” himself, and bad no respect or sympathy for “croakers.” The enemy has already appropiiated • twenty-seven hun dred millions of dollars and one million of men for our subjugation, and after two years’ war had ut terly-failed, and if the watfeontinued for two-years longer, they would fail to accomplish our sutfjuga tion. So far they had broken the shell of the Con federacy. In the Revolutionary war the British at one time had possession of North Carolina, South Carolina, and other States; they took Philadelphia, and dispersed Congress, and for a long time held almost complete sway in the colonies—yet they did not conquer our forefathers. In the war of IBl2.the British captured the capital of the nation, Wash ington city, and burnt it, yet they did not conquer us ; and if we are true to ourselves now, true to our birth-rights, the Yankee nation will utterly fail to subjugate us. Subjugation would be utter ruin and eternal death to Southern people and all that they hold-most dear. He exhorted the people to give-the Government a cordial to frown down all aim- yi uiut>lcx»| asa VO xemain Tmited| arid Titter en JWrUUrtv and incLepeaden.ee. As for roeonefeructlon, eald Mr. Stephens,' such a thing was impossible—such an idea mußt not be tolerated for an instant. Reconstruction would not end the.war, but would-produce a more horrible war than that in which we are engaged; The only terms on which we can obtain permanent peace is final and complete separation from the North. Rather than Bubmit to anything short of that, let ub all resolve to die like men worthy of freedom.: In regard to foreign intervention, Mr. Stephens advised hiß hearers xo build no hopes on that yet awhile.. He did not believe-that the leading foreign Powers-ever intended that the North and South should be again‘united; they -preferred that the separation should be permanentbut they consi dered both sides too strong now, and did not deem it good policy on their part to interfere and >put a Btop to the war. Foreign nations see that the result of the .war will be to establish a. despotism at the North, and are therefore willing.to allow it to con tinue a while longer. The whole tone of Mr. Stephens’ speech was very , encouraging, and showed not the slightest sign of despondency. He concluded by expressing entire confidence in the ability of the Confederacy to main . tain our. cause and achieve independence. ENGLISH PERFIDY—ROEBUCK’S MOTION. [From the Richmond Examiner, July 2LO . The issue of veracity between the Emperor of the French and Sir George Grey , English Under secretary for Foreign Affairs, is suggestive of grave reflections respecting'the position of France and England in reference to us. In the matter of ve racity as between the French Emperor and Grey-no one can for a moment hesitate to decide. The Em peror was evidently indignant at the-treacherous violation of oonMnnos of wMoMHa,En?llali Tfnroiyn iificrotnn ona neon puny! nna ns tire masiwi tfty ! interview between-- himeelf and Messrs, Roebuck and Lindsay to make.. public his dissatisfaction at that- course. He authorized Mr. Roebuck to make the following statement iu the British House of Commons:- “ As Boon as I learned that the report- was circula ting in England (that he had changed his mind on the question of recognizing the South), I gave in structions to my ambassador to- deny the truth of it. Nay, more, I instructed him to say that my feeling was not exactly the same aB it because it was stronger than ever in favor of recognizing the South. I told him, also, to; lay before the British Govern-. meat my understanding and my wishes on this ques tion; and to ask still again whether they would be willing to join me in that recognition.” , Mr. Roebuck further stated that he laid before the Empeior two courses of conduct. “Your Majesty,” said Mr. Roebuck, “ may make a formal application to England.” The Emperor interrupted him at this point and said * “No, I can’t do that, and I will tell you why. Some months ago I did make a formal application to England. England sent my despatch to America. That despatch, getting into Mr. Seward’s hands, was shown to my ambassador at Washington. It came back to me, and I feel that I was ill treated by such conduct.” The feeling was a natural one; but certainly the Emperor should have been prepared for any act of perfidy on the part of the English Government. The hostility of England toward us, measured by a resort for its indulgence to means so infamous as that of a treacherous betrayal of the secrets of an ally acting ia good faith in the matter of our recog nition, must be regarded as profound and implaca ble.

Tlie Richmond Examiner says: Looking to the results of the President’s appoint ments, we beg respectfully to ask what pre-eminent ability and integrity were exhibited in the follow ing instances: Trans-Potomac Lovell, (who, unless misrepre sented, lectured to New York Audiences on the art of war until after the battle of Manassas,) to the command of New Orleans. _ Pennsylvania Pemberton, who gave up Cole’s Island, which enabled the enemy td obtain his. present foothold at Charleston,’and advised the de molition of Forts Sumpter and Moultrie, to the com mand of Vicksburg.

His relative, Samuel Jones, who had,never led a regiment into action, to a major generalship. His favorite, Heth, (who had. done nothing, over Price, who had done more with his means than any man in the service,) to a major generalship—-an ap pointment actually made, but denied, and only changed to a brigadier’s commission after three months’resistance by the Senate.

Instructions had been received in regard to this expedition by the Waliachiari authori ties. The troops were to employ persuasion, and to avoid a conflict with arms at any cost. Their con ciliatory efforts, however, were not attended with any result. A fight took place which lasted for five hours, and terminated in the retreat of the Poles, who abandoned their dead and wounded. Theloss of the Poles was sixteen killed, including two officers, and thirty-one wounded. -The Bussians had eighteen killed and forty-five wounded. Among the latter were two officers.

Six points, agreed upon as the propositions of the great European Powers to Bussia, are contained in the recent note of Austria. The Austrian Premier writes: As a natural consequence of the communication, made to us, we, in concurrence with the London and Paris Cabinets, took into consideration the expla nations-given by the Russian Court. They an swered the expectations which we had formed of the wisdom and liberal intentions of the Emperor Alex ander. The St. Petersburg Cabinet appeared to wish for an exohange of ideas as to the meanß to.be em ployed for the attainment of our mutual wishes, and Austria, France, and England were, so to say, re quested to give a definite form to their opinions, and to enter into a friendly discussion with the Russian Government respecting them.

General Meade-is new to us in the-chief command, and we have no means of knowing how far'his notions of policy and propriety, in the preparation of documents intended for pub lication, coincide with those of some, of hia predecessors. Judging from precedents, afforded by the reports of such men as Pope and Hooker, we should be justified in expecting that the next mail would bring us news of a crushing Federal disaster. Giving Gen. Meade,;on the other hand, the credit due to an untried man, of being fairly modest, truthful, and temperate, it may be in ferred that he has succeeded beyond* expectation in bringing the triumphant career of the Confederates to a pause, and possibly in providing them with good reeson to. rue their;temerity.

Personal. —The death of a young female, Mary Ann Walkley (in'the service of a fashionable West-End milliner, Madame Ellse, a Frenchwoman), from exhaustion, caused by overwork and the breathing of impure air, has caused a sensation in London. The facts atteDdiDg the extinction of this young creature, as they were developed at the inquiry before the coro ner, reveal a state of things about which the fine ladies who employ these court milliners can know nothing. Dr. Lankester has made a report on the subject. “ I found sixty ladies,” he says, " working in- two rooms which contained 3,630 cubic feet of air, and this gives but little more than sixty feet of air to each individual.” It has been remarked that, in a sanitary point of view, these rooms have even less air than the Black Hole of Calcutta, into which, though double the number of people were .thrust, yet many of them died a horrible death in the course of a single night. A Vicksburg' correspondent writes: "The edi tor of the Vicksburg Whig graced the rear of the caravan, mounted, on a very poor, steed, with an out-rider behind to hold up (editors never get intox icated) the very large amount of poor whisky.

Jackson. He, aided by the other police com missioners, organized the police to participate in the capture of the arsenal and the arrest-of Union men; and at one time he had forty bunks prepared in the calaboose for the accommodation of the pro minent Unionists whom he expected to seize and imprison. We have no doubt he has a lively re membrance of these little matters.- Now he is & prisoner himself, and, we imagine, his career is at an end. General Garibaldi is god-father to 4,000 children, 2,000 boys have received his name. He is honorary burgess of 90 cities and towns, and honorary presi dent of 120 associations. He has 21 - swords of honor, of which 11 have been sent, from abroad. Since 1859 3,000 addresses of devotedness* have been sent to him. In consequence of the ment introduced into the cultivation of the land which he possesses at Caprera, his annual revenue amounts t 03,000 francs. Originally, it was almost nothing. The Chambersburg (Pa.) Valley -Spirit says that while that ancient borough was under rebel rule, a rebel soldier applied: to a lady for an axe to cut down a liberty poll which had stood in the public mars sra sinssths great UDflami or the people npoinae ran or Fort simpler: sue Mined to give tne axe. He drew Mb piatol from hia Belt and threat* ened to shoot her unless she complied with his de mand.- She replied, with perfect coolness, “You can put twenty bulletß through my. heart, but you cannot force, me to give you an axe to cut down, that pole.” : _ Says the Springfield Republican: “ Give Joe Hooker another chance: not as the commander of a great army, but as the . captain of a division, or the leader of an expedition. Give him from 20,000 to 40,000 men under General Meade, or by himself on the Peninsula, and let him try onoe more. Like Stonewall Jackson to the rebels, Hooker has proved himself our best fighter in a subsidiary, expeditiona~ ry capacity. Let him go to his old place, and renew . the laurels of 1862.” - „ —ln the Erie Annual Conference nowin session at Ashtabula, Ohio, Dr. G.- Wi Clarke stated that Jj J.-Bcntly had surrendered his as local.' preacher. He went to war as captain and main tained a fair character. Dr. Clarke said: .“His reason a are that having been in the war and fought the rebels, he now finds Copperheads on his return, and cannot very well maintain his Christian and*- ministerial character, but is inclined to be trement dously-excited, and is. afraid somebody may .get; hurt.” —ln reply to a letter of congratulation on his-re*. covery, eentto Garibaldi by the “Sclave Etnlgra-, tion of the South,” the - patriot has forwardea rth^. «*n .-I -1 vs. er— - 5-ooi> Sisnsaros ; lAm fell” /Iratiftll for "otic fiftfigt&tuUtfons.
