(Special Correspondence of The Presal
Wilson's Great Cavalry Raid
HEADQtYART.EMS All.)T OF Tile POTOMAC, VA.,
July 1,1861.
Your correspondent has just returned from the
scene of the great raid made by the combined forces
of Wilson and Kautz. The name of Kautz has be
come a terror to the rebels in this section of the
country. If a cavalryman be seen, either in a
squadron or by himself, a farmer will generally
ask, the nil important question"be lie a scout of
Kautz"! he looks right smart of fight." Kautz is
destined to become in this part of the rebel domains
what Kilpatrick was when he lett for the West.
Whether these raids, however, have any effect
upon the ultimate triumph of our arms is a qUes
tion that has not yet been decided. The recent
Cavalry raid of Wilson, and from the singular
trap In which he finds himself, is now the solo topic
of conversation in the grand Potomac Army. On
the 22d of Juno Wilson's entire Command, with
fotirteen pieces of mountain howitzers, lea their po
sition on the Blackwater river, about four miles
from Prince George Court House. They took a
southwesterly direction, and struck the Petersburg
and Belliteld Railroad at Reams Station. This
place consists of three houses and an old frame shod,
styled a depot, which may be considered the model
Of all railroad stations in the Southern States.
Reams is distant from Petersburg ten miles, and
from Meade's headquarters six miles and three
fourths. At this place Wilson tore ulathe track of
the road for a distance of six miles, and burned
everything in connection with the road. A few
cars that were standing .upOn the turnouts he ran
together and committed to tho flames. From
Reams' helook a western course, and entered Din
wlddie Court House, a place about ten miles west
of Reams, and on the line of the projected railroad
between Petersburg and Warrenton, North Caro
lina. The surveys' of the road are complete, but
the want of rails has prevented any active work on
the line since the autumn Of 1862. Destroying all
the grain and 'breadstuff's generally that could be
found, and all& was thought could be of any ser
vice to the rebels, - Wilson took a northwestely
Course, and struck the Lynchburg and Petersburg
Railroad, at n. place called Ford's Station, dis
tant from . Petersburg twenty-two miles and from
Lynchburg sixty one miles. The country lying be:
tween Dlnwiddie Court House and Ford's Station
bellies all description. The plantations were of the
most gorgeous character, and the residences of the
planters showed that, although they were taxed
most outrageously to support an ungodly war, they
nevertheless lived in' a style far greater than the
"signs of the times" would warrant. Most of the
male inhabitants had gone to the army. Many of:
the negroes said that numbers of them had flown to
the woods upon hearing of the approach of our ca
valry, fearing that the "Yankees" would "gobble"
I them up anti take them to the Northern forts as pri
soners of war or hostages for the good behavior of
the citizens inhabiting the country through which
the Union cavalry was passing. The Socesit ladies
turned ep their noses with the most indignant hauteur
imaginable. When asked questions as to the direc
tions indicated by certain country roads theyroplied,
1 ' We don't betray our brothers." One of them went
so far as to dash a Cup of water into the face of a
lieutenant, who modestly returned the insult by
saying, "He that giveth a cup; of cold water in my
name, ac.," a repartee that showed the education
and refinement of a gentleman in contrast to the
boorish and contemptible conduct of a Southern
"lady." As I saw this circumstance myself, I felt
no little curiosity to know the origin of this sprig
of chivalry. Accordingly, I drove up to a negro
servant, and asked the name of the individual.
"Dal's a woman, manse, dat raised her." Tho old
woman to whom I again put the qujstion replied;,;
" alars.e, dat gal's my missus, an I raised her from'
a chile; her mother, ole missus, died when she was
born ; I suckle de missus myseff." I did not wonder
why a gallant lieutenant received the jeers of a
Southern full-blooded lady.
-WILSON BINUACS.
At Ford's Station Wilson bivouacked for the
night, and his worn and jaded troops Sadly needed
rest. There was no straggling on tho march; every
man was at his post, for it was a matter of life and
death with him. Guerillas, who always hang
around the (tanks and rear of a moving column,
hung around Wilson, and woe be .to the unlucky
personage caught estray from his command. No
stringent order had been issued relative to this sub
ject, for the obedience of the mon was a necessity;
It was an active and passive matter, march orbe gob
bled. Camp peinishments relative tostraggiers were
useless. After a short sleep, in , which all engaged I
save the requisite picket guards, the morning found
them refreshed, and again ready for the continua
tion of their perilous journey. Before moving, the
divisions of Wilson's command moved northeast and
southwest on the railroad, tearing up the rails, and
placing them on huge piles - of ties which wore
hastily burned, and rendered useless for the future.
At Ford's Station vast stores of cotton and military
Supplies were found loaded in the oars ready for im
mediate transportation. Those were all destroyed.
They consisted of two trains of thirty.two oars
each, and two locomotives. At this place Kautz
and Wilson divided their commands, Kautz taking
a southern direction, moving down to Waqua.
Creek, and then going due west to Lewiston, twelve
miles east of Drake's branch, on the Richmond and
Danville 'Railroad. He allowed only grain enough
to remain in the country through which he travelled
sufficient to sustain the lives of the Inhabitants.
From Lewiston he went north to 13urkesville, on
the Richmond and Danville Railroad. This place,
it will be recollected, is also the junetion of the
Petersburg and Lynchburg Railroad, thirty miles
from the former place 'and about forty-five miles
from the latter. He then marched directly south
west, taking the Richmond and Danville Railroad
as his guide, to Price's Station, lacherrin, and Keys
villa. Up to this titan Kautz had met with no re
bels, and it at once led to the supposition that they
were to be found on the Petersburg and 1301'110d
Railroad—a supposition which afterward 'proved
to be true. It was known among the rebels that
Wilson had gone out on a raid, and that it would be
necessary for them to make strenuous exertions to
withstand the attack that he would make in some
unknown quarter. Our scouts brought in the in
formation a few days since that ];well's corps of
Lee's army, amounting with others under his cone:
mend to thirty thousand teen, had succeeded in
reaching Janet's Station on the Petersburg and
Bailed Railroad, and wore strongly posted on the
line of that road between Belllield and Stony Crook
. Station. Later 4ntelllgenco broUght in, how
ever, represented• that they had withdrawn their
pickets front Stony Creek, and had shortened
their lines to a small place near the Sussex
Court House, On a small branch of the
Nottoway creek. According to the orders re..
calved by Routs, he was to make a junction with
Wilson nt Keysville, on the Danville Railroad. His
march to that place was hastened by the word that
had reached'him that, Wilson had already reached
that place, and was awaiting the arrival of his
command. Houtz did not allow one inch of the rail
road over which he was marching to remain in
working condition, but utterly destroyed every rail
of which it was constructed. Tho folly of Northern
newspaper reports was never so patent to my mind
as it was when I saw the condition of these Southern
railroads. We have long been indulging in Wallop°
that rebel roads of communication, constructed of
iron rails, would soon give out, owing to the thin and
unsafe condition of the Iron. Let me say that these
and all other reports ea like character are simply
concocted nonsense, and have riot the shadow of a
truth connected with them. I have never seen bet
ter and snore artistically constructed railroads than
1 have seen since I has - clm in Virginia and North
Carolina. The road between Petersburg anti Nor
folk, a distance of eighty miles, is better In every
respect than is the Central Ralirond of Now York.
The rails on the Danville road aro not of the most
recent pattern, but as to their actual scrviceabtlity
no ono can deny but that they are in an admirable
condition.

A JUNCTION FORMED
Kautz made his ordered Junction with Wilson at
Keysville, and unitedly they marched to the Notto

miles north or Lawrenceville., Tho Nottoway is the
north branch of the Chemin river, the Mahon - in
river being the south branch. ' When they struck
Stony•creek,statlon, on the Weldon and Petersburg
Railroad, they were met by EwelPs entire corps,

heavily entrenched themselves at that point. The

The rebels were commanded by Extra Dilly
Smith. At night our roar was attacked aor.in by
the hitherto retreating rebels. Tho battle Ireted
but a short time, for the valor and daring bravery
exorcised by our bravo men drove back ttu rebels
in confusion. At Stony Creek Station the rebel%
beside their Deir..s. Infantry force, had a largo body'
of cavalry, under Wade Hampton and Dearing..
Dore a most terrible battle raged. IL began on:
TueStlay night, about an hour before sunset, and
lasted until 'Wednesday morning about five o'clock.:
The charges of the rebels were of the most deadlyi
chnriteter. Fh e times during that awful night tit&
they attempt to carry our lines, and five times were'
they hurled back with an awful slaughter. Our ,
men lay behind breastworks, for they had ills .

hind dug up the earth in front of them; and ettoh,'
with nn eye of steady determination, picked his.
man. During this time, the infantry of the rebels
were encircling their lines around our threes, and it
became evident that the entire three under Wilson
would be captured. The rebels charged with yoho7
memo on tho batteries, which hurled forth their
howling " dent h•warrants” to their columns. Their
charge was successful.; but never can praise be more
judiciously bestowed upon fighting men than It wilk
ha upon these batteries. They stood with a spike In
ono hand, ready to disable their guns, while in the
Other they held their ammunition; and not until the
fee was ten feet distant did they spike their guns
and boat a retreat.

THE FOURTH OE JULY.

at Gettysburg. •
EMANCIPATION FESTIVITY IN MARYLAND
OETTYSBURG
[Special Correspondence of The Press.]
GETTYMIRO, July 4.—Gettysburg has had a real
holiday. Iler citizens, able to appreciate how much:
happier they would be to-day than on that eventful
ono a year ago, chose to celebrate It., not only as the
day of the Republic's primeval origin, but also as
that of its second birth—of its preservation from a
death that seemed to impend—menacing and terrible.
Prominent in the movement was David Wills, Esq.,
who has alreadyj'won public commendation for his
disinterted efforts to make for our fallen private
soldiers some record, even though it be but the men
tion of their names and regiments on unpretending
headboards. While he strives to give them decent
anti honorable sepulture, hotels° snatches nil that is
loft of them from forgetfulness, and makes a na
tional cemetery a family history—a book in which
the descendants of the fallen can read with hondst
pride of the deeds and true nobility of their patriot
fathers. It was deemed appropriate that Culp's
Bill, on which some of the heaviest fighting of the
"never-to-be-forgotten July days" took place,
-cheek] witness old scenes of peace, and hear the
praises of the brave men who guarded and defended
it from the pollution of the swarming traitors. The
programme of exercises was, therefore, so arranged
as to include a military display, a pleasant reunion
as in the good old times of peace, national music,
and an oration fit to the place and the day.
-Accordingly, this morning at 9 o'clock the proces
sion was marshalled on the streets of the city. The
105th Pennsylvania 'Veterans, formerly ono of the
regiments of the Pennsylvania Reserve Corps, an
escort of cavalry, a section of volunteer artillery,
and a number .of honorably-discharged soldiers,
'were given the right of the procession. On their
left were arranged in order the Burgess and Bo'.
rough Council of Gettysburg, the judges of the
courts and members of the bar ; the faculty and
students of the PennsylVanis. College and Theo- .
logical Seminary; the members of Getty's Lodge;
and other visiting, Odd-Pellows, and members or
benevolent associatiory. Citizens brought up the
rear. The posts of honor were assigned to the Go
-venter, who, however, was not present, the orator
of the day, Bor. John It. Warner, the reader of.th.
Declaration of Independence, and the chaplain.—
In this order, thrproccssion, headed by the Chem-.
bersburg Bind, took Up its march out the Balti
more pike past the 'National Cemetery to Cuip's
Hill. It arrived there a little before 10 o'clock, and
the commencement or the regular exercises was do-
layed a short time to allow the large number of
strangers present to wander over what must forever
be classic ground. There were in all about three
thousand persons present, but the number would
have been three times as great had it not been for
the unfortunate coincidence of a wide-spread and
generally received report of a rebel raid. The
people of Chambers.burg and the Cumberland
who had proposed attending en masse,
were deterred from it by the remembrance of the
raid last summer. They chose to forego their day of
recreation, anti take measures, in consonance with
General Couch's recommendation, to secure their
movable properly, animate and inanimate. All
day long they have been coming in, burghers and
farmers, flying front what seems to me an imagi
nary evil. Tne latter have been taking care of their
horses particularly. Every farmer I have seen has
been mounted upon the back of one of his sturdy,
servants, leading after him his whole equine stock ;
Zometimes ten or twelve in the cavalcade. With.
the apprehended raid as a reason—and a very pow
erful ono it is—the number was less than expected.
But the contingency was unforeseen, and the only
wonder is that as many were present as there were.
During the interval elipsing, before the commence
moot of the exercises, the aUembleti people distri
buted themselves over the field to gratify their cu
riosity and renew and revivify their patriotism.
The view to be obtained from Culp's Hill of sur
rounding nature was magnificent. The country
spread itself out broad :Ind open, bathed in un
clouded sunlight. Far away in the background the
Blue Mountains rose up, a shadowy, ,semi-eireular
frame to the great landscape. Their leafy summits.
wore defined against the sky in waving, graceful'
curves. On the extreme left, just visible over a grove
of trees,were the nrched entranceofthe Cometeryand
the new white marble tombstones glistening in the
sunlight: In the foreground ran the little rivulet,
the waters of which, chroniclers of a year ago tell
us, were reddened with the bleed of the •wounded
and dead. Its waters were clear now and tempting=
ly cool ; Its way unobstructed, and its laughter mu
sical. On the extreme right tall forest trees lifted
up their leafy crests. Between and within all these
boundaries lay Gettysburg and a great part of the -
battle-field. There were the Seminary and the Court
House, flags streaming to the wind from their cu
polas. Little white spires peeped up above the
foliage, and the houses of every Color nestled snugly
beneath. On the crest of a low ridge, far away to
the right. was the' log house that was dignified as •
headquarters on the teat day of the battle. Running
at right angles, straggling In zig-zag, or isolated in
curves, were regularly built walls of • bout- .
dens scoring the sides and stretching black
and dismal along the summit of Cemetery Hill.
They were almost as the battle had left them. No
hand had overturned them; they seemed to be \we
served, because they were the mementoes of a
mighty struggle and a glorious victory. Turning
about, we sew lowering over everything around, the
summit of Round Top, anti below It, close to it, as
if seeking protection, "Little Round Top," both
with histories. just at our feet, and climbing up
before us, was Culp's Hill, rugged, but half its rug
gedness hid by the splendid grove that crowns its
sides. It seemed a natural Gibraltar. Its whole
surfaCe was broken by gray, venerable old rooks,
that reared themselves defiantly. They . lay
together as if a giant hand had thrown them in
hundrede around the hill, and left them where they
fell. Bearded with lichen, rounded and carved into
fantastic shapes, by attrition and the decay of ttme,
they wore slippery anti treacherous to the foot. So
treacherous were they, .so steep the ascent, that
many of the gay sight-seekers, mounting at leisure,
fell with celerity, or paused to take breath and re.
eruit their exhausted powers. All along its crest,
over the Immense rocks, and including them,'
stretched a rude breastwork, built by our army of
fence,tails and earth hastily thrown together. And
yet be it known that, upon that breastwork ale
tended by determined men, and almost inaccessible,
Ewell,mad with desperation, hurled 7000 mettle gray.
But nature was their enemy, ne.wull as the keroes
in blue, and though they struggled, they straggled
but to slaughter. Scarcely 2,000 of the storing -
band came back to their y. not cuturedel. Car
Out to the south a broad belt of comparatively open
country is visible. A - turnpike, like a broad white
ribbon, is laid over the green acres. A tali hill,
rearing its head high over an humble little spire,
anti scattered clumps and reaches of Won COM
pieta the picture.
Taking the field in a general view, there seems to
be little to betoken the revel of death oneeheld upon
It. Corn and wheat bend before the wind, rind hero
and there are little dots—busy harvesters gathering
the richness of the earth Into the garnet But the

refic.hunters, in search of balls buried m them, and
the still well-preserved breastwork, would be effec

their tenements unnoticed. They aro the 'traitor

sin, one looks upon the , nameloss tenths with kindly
pity, second only to that ire feel when we stand by

somebody's home is lonely and dark—somebody's

The exercises were openedvaith a prayer by Rev.
Dr. H. L. Baugher, president of the Pennsylvania
college. This was to have been succeeded by a
epecch from Gov . Curtin, but it was stated by
Wills that matters of, grave public Importance had

introduced to the audience, and proceeded to pro

Battle of Gollysburr , Ills oration was made up
almost wholly of n graphic description of the main
of the battle. The fact that he stood upon the very

Immense rock, that had answered, during the battle,
as en excellent rule-pit, and faced the line of on.
trenchnients, one part of which Ewell assaulted in
vain, gave new zest to his narration, and made ap•
predating listeners, for his eloquent details. Ito in
troduCed his subject with the following remarks :
LAMM Awn CEnr.:TrAntux Slimly hero before ono
will remember our gathering in this same grove
three years ago to-day. Oh I that language could
be made to interpret the secret whisperings of nil
things now around us. Thelpirits of these trees—
this rock—would cry, It is right that you celebrate
this day. It is right, because eighty-eight years ago
your fathers declared you a free tend Independent
people. It hi right because your brothers have rati
fied that declaration with their blood. It is right,
because you have gathered together to-day to honor,
to preserve green thdir memory—the memory of
those who aro dead, and In truth offered up for the
Itepubile their lives, their fortunes, and their sa
cred honor.' " When we met upon this hill throe
years ago little was said of the memories of the
past. The future lay before us, but It was vel led—
wisely, closely, darkly veiled, and our only thought
was to penetrate it: These three years have
passed, the veil has been lifted, and the fit
zure of that dn v as m the retrospect of this.
'What n picture that I What a retrospect is
this I. On that Martha host, gathering then along
the Potomac, our eyes, and
deeply fixed. Since then we have followed it twice
over the fields of Manassas, doubly-red with twice
iepeated carnage. We have trembled for it, na the
motion trembled when it was on the banks of the
Chickahominy, and by the waters of the James and
the Antietam. We have, in sympathy with it, sealed
Om bloody heights of Fredericksburg, and through
the storm of battle at Ohancellors.ville. Here,
again, we stand together, but to-day with cheer and
hope. How changed the scone ! The mountains
cluster around as before, but they have reverberated
the echoes of battle, and there seems given to their
ancient grandeur a new majesty. rise heavens
stretch above as of yore, but today they seem to be
tinged with a new. loveliness. With that valley
behind as a mighty sepulchre, and all unhonored
-with that hill before us, lifting itself as If in pride of
the nation's richest treasure adorning its crest—
with the spirits of the hosts of freedom's martyrs
revisiting to-day the' scenes of their struggles and
their triumphs, and now hovering over this the spot
.hallowed by their blood, I cannot attempt to say :
Whence the change! In these memorials, In these
trees, and in this rock, there is an eloquence greater
than that of Tully, beside which human thought
and human language both are impotent.
He then proceeded with the description of the
battle, concluding with the expression of a - fervent
prnyorthat the nation saved on that field of strife
might continue to exist for, the political happiness
and welfare of mankind, and that a grateful people
might learn in humble thanksgiving to over repeat
together "Gettysburg" and " Alleluia."
The Star-Spangled Banner was then sung. Its
strains went out among the leafy arches sweeter by
far than the hoarse roar of the five hundred bellow
ing cannon that reverberated among them a year
before. lint the strains were kindred. One repro
rEented the struggle, the other the victory ; ono spoke
the accents of doubt, the other, clear and melodious,
was a paw of triumph ascertained, and national
existence renewed. As the Song of the Republic
-went op from the choristers the battle of Gettysburg
seemed to e4sume a- new nobility, and its results to
preeent themselves to the listeners in a grander
light than'ever before, MI all instinctively joined in
the glorious refrain :
"'The Star•SDangled Banner forever that' wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave. "
A plentiful collation, prepared by the committee
of arrangements, closed the Mreiseg. The assem•
binge slowly separated, nod the celebration of the
first anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg was

EMANCIPATION IN MAYeI-LAND
The loyal residents of Elkton, Maryland, a place
thathaii been ridden of its Seccalt inhabitants, had
a very happy and patriotic gathering on the Fourth
of July liflunfor of the day and of emancipation in
Sly Maryland." If there are any Copperheads
remaining in that place, they are as fa ngless and as
harmless as In the city of Baltimore. At early
dawn salutes were fired and the gay flag of Ameri
ca was flung to the breeze. The people were deter
mined to have a fine celebration, and well did they
succeed. Everybody was cheerful. Men, women, and
children came for many miles ; delegations from
every part of the Eastern Shore were present, and all
seemed in 'earnest in the support of the recent State
Convention that burst the shackles of slavery and
gave freedom to the bondsmen. My Maryland now
takes raialein the progress of civilization. Its soul
is marching on. The celebration of yesterday will
be renewed on every Fourth of July until time
shall be no more. These were the general senti
racautof the people there, and particularly those of
Cecil county, who, as a body, Were always in favor
of the old flag.
The celebration of yesterday took place in McCul
lough's woods, which spread their grateful shade a
short distance north of Elkton. Dinner was served
upYat fine o'clock, in which ladles and gentlemen
participated. After the closing c k f the festive scene
the meeting was called to order, front seats being
. .zelferved for ladles. -
The proceedings were opened with prayer by the
Bev. r.Curtis. who addressed the Throne of Grace
in an eloquent and appropriate manner. After this
came music from the George's band and Elkton
band, and. the surrounding woodland and vales re
.echoed back again the soul-stirring strains of the
Star-Smingled Banner,
Colonel Ash presided on this occasion. In a few
pertinent remarks he introduced John Perkins, Esq.,
who read in clear and distinct tones the Declaration
of Independence.
The orator of the day, A. B. Sloanaker Esq., was
introduced. Alter the applause bad subsided lie de
livered the following brief oration .

PERSONAL.
From St. Domingo, we have news of tho death,
on the 14th, of Brigadier General Pedro Santana,
the wretch who sold his country to Spain, asserting
that through Lim the Dominicans desired to become
reincorporated with Spain, and against which very
enslavement this same people have been so success
fully flghUng for wyear past.
The death of Santana is a victory gained to the
Dominicans. He has been execrated by thonsands
for the past thirty years of his life; even the
Diario although he was Alarques de las Car
reras, Lieutenant General In the Spanish army, a
peer of the realm, decorated with grand crosses of
the orders of Carlos 111., and of Isabel la Oatolica,
has the following wind-up to obituary: "Thus
have terminated the (lays of Gon. Pedro Santana.
Lot us not judge him to-day (1); neither letus pay
any attention to the criticisms (or judgments) that
every mouth utters upon his life and upon his acts.
Passion must influence all that is Said now In re
gard to the deceased, and it will be best to allow its
effervescence to pass that the "voice of impartiality
may be heard." A poor eulogy, methinks, for the
man who six months since was so flattered by these
same journals.
' —lt will be remembered that in Itlarch last the
Committee on Revolutionary Pensions reported to
Congress a resolution, which was unanimously
adopted, tendering thanks to the surviving soldiers
of the Revolution, twelve in number, for their ser. .
vices in that war by which our Independence was
achieved and our liberty obtained, and sincerely re
joicing that their lives have been protracted boyOnd
the period usually alloted to man, and that they re
ceive a sum of money as pensioners which shall
help to smooth the rugged path of life on their jour
ney to the tomb, and that copies of the resolutions
were sent by the Speaker to each Revolutionary pen
sioner. The following are the names, birthplaces,

The controversy between the Cambridge Pro
fessor of History, Rev. Charles Kingsley, the well
known novelist and inventor of "Muscular Christi
anity,” and Dr. John Henry Newman, formerly tho
pride of Oxford, and now, since his perversion to
Romanism, the head of the Oratorian Order in Eng
land—that originally turned on the alleged Romish
Practice of suppressing or disguisingthe truth, when
politic, has taken a wider range. Dr2Newman, who
had of late years been rarely heard of beyond the
limits of bis own communion, seems to have seized
eagerly the :opportunity afforded by the discussion
to obtain the ear of the eeneral public ; and In a se
ries of shilling pamphlets, adapted for the widest
circulation, Is bringing out one of the most curious
autobiographies ever published, under the title of
Apology for his Life. In apparent candor and ab
sence of reservation, It may almost be compared to
the Confessions of Rousseau, and affords a most
truthful picture of the processes of his mind, and
the intellectual struggles that he experienced On
his way from the Church of England to Komar:dm.
It Is a curious fact that his brother, Professor F.
Newman, of equal learning and attainments, fur
nished a Similar but less elaborate account of the
progress of his mind which conducted him from.
Evangelical Protestantism to the opposite pole of
opinion to that reached by his brother—pure scepti
cism. The title of his work was Phases of Faith.
The remembrance of Dr. Newman's talents is still
so warmly cherished at Oxford, Sm., that considera
ble apprehensions are entertained by many of the
effect of his work on minds of the weak and waver
ing order.
Mr. Fessenden has now two sons in the army.
James, the eldest of his sons, is aid-de-camp,
with the rank of colonel, and' Is now on Major
General Hooker's staff. Francis, the youngest
living, is brigadier general in the volunteers and
captain in the 19th United States Infantry. He is
now at home, In Portland,-Maine, suffering from
amputation of his right leg, the wound received at
the battle of Cane river. But this is not all. The
youngest of all his sons, Samuel, was lieutenant in
the 2(1 Battery of Maine Volunteers, and died of
wounds received at the battle of Chancellorsville,
about one year ago. Mr. FesSentlen has one other
son, William, who is not in the army, but would
have been had his health permitted.
One of tile most successful and daring leaders
of the guerilla _bands' which now infest Kentucky
and Tennessee, is a man named Hughes.' He joined
Morgan when the guerilla chief was In the zenith of
his fame, and accompanied him in several of his
early Kentucky raids. Hei deserted Atorgan more
than a year ago, and for many months has been ac
tively engaged in recruiting a guerilla band. All
the Idle vagabonds of the country rally to his call,
and his force is large enough at this time to do much
petty mischief. He Is the chief of the n umerous gangs
scattered through the Green-river country, and ope

ICU A Lip PROLONGUA.—The problem of sus
pending life by freezing seems to be accumulating
data. Perch and mullet have been brought from
Lake Champlain frozen perfectly solid, and, on
behig put into a tub of water, have come to life "as
lively es over." A female convict in Sweden is in
ice on experiment. A man was found lately in
Switzerland who gave signs of life after being
frozen for 111110 months. 'rho power of stopping
while tho world goes on may be the next wonder..
Ice-houses may soon be advertised with comfortable'
arrangements for skipping an epoch, or waiting for

Under section 34 of the 'new National Currency
act, all national Linking -aasoclations that have a
tiertificate.of organization dated prior to the first
Monday in July araexpected' to. make a report on
that day, whether they have• commenced buSiness
or not. The same ruling %chiliad with reference to
banks organized priorto the first Mondays in Octo
ber, January and April, and the effect of this doer
Sion, under the law, of the Comptroller of the Cur
rency will be to make the statistics of the Currency
Bureau very accurate and reliable, and will mark the
progress of the national banking system from quar
ter to quarter with the utmost accuracy. The
monthly reports prescribed in the same section, be
ing entirely different from the quarterly reports, will
also be expected to be made regularly and promptly.
The national banks will thus be called upon for two
reports this month. Under the new act, the State
banks are not required to send - statements of their
circulating notes to the Comptroller of the Currency,
as formerly under the old law. Such statements
should now be made to the collectors of internal
revenue. Many of the . banks, not understanding
the change of the law in this respect, are forwarding
thorn to the Currency Bureau.

. The latest adrices from Now Orleans state that
the stocks of groceries and provisions at that port
are very ample for the seasoa. The New Orleans
Times, of June 25th, says the receipts of Flour from
the Ist of this month to yesterday were 21,119 bar
rels, making the total receipts from the Ist of Sep
tember last, on commercial and private account,
count up IMMO barrels. The receipts of Pork from
the Ist of March up to yesterday, on same account,
count up only 11,625 barrels—the Pork market can
pass for the present. Into the hands of speculators
and monopolizers, though the article Is quoted in
New York at last dates, on tho 17th, at $3; @a1.50
barrel. They job end trade in Pork in the city
of New York In the same manner they do In
stocks and bonds, selling short and buying long,
There was considerable talk yesterday about the
amount of gold being shipped for New York by the
steamers to leave this morning. About M 3,000
were manifested—perhaps the total, some In private
hands included, will exceed this sum. Of coarse
the market will feel this reduction in stock. One
cargo of merchandise, mostly sugar, now at the
levee, will require nearly forty thousand dollars of
the article to cover duties. in the meantime, there
are further shipments expected by the tWo next
steamers, which will probably • be the last for the
present, unless the steamer to leave New York may
bring some few thousand.
The English official return of the imports and ex
