The Geoteral Assembly at Peoria elected Rev.
Dr. Morrison, of the Synod of Northern India, who
has faithfully served the Church in the missionary
work for a quarter of a century, as moderator.. His
election was an honorable recognition of that service,
and of the dignity and importance of the missionary
work in general. This General Assembly, says the
correspondent of the Independent, contained an un
usual number of young ministers ; yet it was a dig
nified and able body, and specially endowed with a
talent for speech-making 'The lay element em
braced an unwonted proportion of clear-headed and
able debaters, among whom may be mentioned as
holding the first rank, Hon. H. H. Leavitt of Cin
cinnati, who gave the opinion in the Vallandigham
case, Judge Clark of Michigan, Judge Lawson of
Pennsylvania, Judge Wood of Missouri, Dlr. Con
ger of New York, , Mr. Gee. Junkin, Jr., of Phila
delphia, and Dr. 'Thoth:is McKennan of Washing
ton, Pa. A special interest invested the Board of
Publication, from the tact that a committee, com
posed of leading men in the Church, had been
appointed last -year to make a thorough investiga.
trop of its affairs. This committee was created in
consequence of assaults upon the Board, renewed
from year to year for a•aeries of years. Their report
was prepared by pr. Lowery of. Fort Wayne, and
was a very able dtamment, elaborate, comprehen
sive, and searching. It proposed some important
reforms with a view to economizing the funds of
the. Church, and increasing the efficiency of the
Board ; staying all further accumulations of capi
tal, and abolishing the office of . Editor of the
Board, and turning over its duties to the
corresponding secretary. An important judicial
case, being the complaint of Rev. Dr. R. J.
Breckiuridge against the decision of the Synod ,
of Kentucky, that none but communicants are I
entitled to vote in the election of a pastor, was
Settled in favor of complainant and against Synod'. I
Thus we have the deliberate and solemn judgment
of the supreme judicatory ; ;the Presbyterian
Church, (0.-5.,) affirming that, upon'a just and
fair in terpretationef the constitution of the Church,
not only members in full communion, but all who
regularly contribute to the expenses of the congre
gation, hare a right to vote in the election of a pas
tor. Two papers ov the state of the country were
presented,' being the majority and minority reports
of a committee. bne drawn by Rev. Dr. Lowery
is spoken of as the more patriotic, the other by
Rev. Dr. HUmphrey 'as rather religious in tone.
Both were adopted with some dissent, especially
in regard to the former paper. The correspondent
says: The document, as'a whole, thoug,h thorough=
ly loyal and patriotic, is not equal to either of the
papers previously adopted in reference to the' rebel
lion. Among the most interesting exereises , of the
meeting just closed was the reception of delegates
from corresponding bodies. Correspondence was
commenced this year with three bodies of Chris
tians, with whom, until now, the Assembly has
never established an intercourse of this nature,
viz., the General Assembly of the Presbyterian
Churoh, (New-School.) the General Assembly of
the United Presbyterian Church, and the General
Assembly of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church.
Delegates, from these several churches; and also ,
from the Reformed Dutch Church, appeared on`
the floor of the Assembly and delivered addresses,
conveying the fraternal salutations and warm
Christian affection of the bodies they represented',
and replete with information touching their condi.
tion and progress. To these our moderator replied
iu brief and fitting terms. Tears were drawn from
that* an eye during these interesting and delight
ful services. The Assembly adjourned June 2, to
meet in. the Third Church Newark, N. J.
The following action on union between the two
brandies was taken by the assembly. • The Commit
tee of bills and overtures reporting overture No. 1,
respecting the 'union of the two branches of the
Presbyterian Church, called the Old and New
School, report that they have endeavored to consi
der the subject in that careful and serious manner
which its importance demands, and would submit
to the Assembly, for their consideration and adop
tion, the following resolutions, vii
:-
1. Resolved, That in the judgment of this Gene
ral Assembly it is not deemed expedient to take at
this time any decided action with reference to a
reunion of the New and Old. School Presbyterian
Churches.
2. Resolved, That in the fraternal correspond
ence now happily inaugurated, the General As
sembly recognize an initiative in the matter of
securing a better understanding of the relation
which subsists between the two Assemblies, and
the means of providing that mutual charity and
that just appreciation of the true grounds of Chris-:
thin union and fellowship, which may serve to
prepare the way for a union that shall be harmeni- .
ous and permanently promotive of the interests of
truth and vital godliness.
3. ResolAd, That as a still further preparative to
such a desirable union, the General Assembly d eem
i 6 important, and this in reference to both these
branches of the Presbyterian,. Church,. that the .
Ministers, Elders, and such as have the , :care and
instruction of the young, be increasingly careful to
ezhittit clearly the distinctive principles of Christian
dactrinelust Church polity as held by the Presbyte•
igen Cliurch; tlint the ministers of these two
branches of the Church cultivate fraternal inter
course, and the interchange of views and feelings,
and in all suitable .ways• encourage and aid one
another in the appropriate work of the ministry,
and that the members of one or the othet branch
connect themselves with existwg congregations of
either rather than cast in their influence and their
aid with bodies whose principles and forms of gov
ernment are foreign to their own.
The report was accepted and adopted.
The Committee on Bills and Overtures also re
ported on an overture from the Presbytery of Saline,
re _pasting further action upon the subject or slave'.
ry. It was adopted, and is as follows :—Overture
No. 16, a request from the Presbytery of Saline,
rtii the
that the General Asrmbly sOleitinlY 'resift
testimony of 1818, in regard to slavery. The Com
mittee report : "The Assembly has, from the first,
uttered its sentiments on the subject of slavery in
substantially the same language. The action of 1818
was taken with more care, and made more clear,
full, and explicit, and was adopted unanimously. It
has since retained that true and scriptural deliver
ance on this important subject, by which our Church
is determined to abide. It has never been repealed,
amended, or modified, but has frequently been
referred to, and reiterat' d in subsequent Assent•
blies ; and when some persons fancied that the
action of 1845 in some way interfered with it, the
Assembly of 1846 declared, with much unanimity,
that the action of 1845 was not intended to deny or
rescind the testimony on this subject previously
uttered by General Assemblies; and by these deli
verances we still abide." Dr. Humphrey moved an
amendment, introducing the word "all,"• so as to
include the action of 1845. His motion was laid on
the table. He then moved to lay the whole subject
on the table, which the Assembly refused to do.
Memorial to Calvin.—Next year will be the
Ter-centenary of Calvin's death. Various proposi
tions suitably to mark this era in Geneva have
been made, but serious hindrances are met in the
rationalistic character of the Reformed churches in
that city. The French correspondent of the /V: X.
Observer thus speaks of another plan':—While our
brethren in. Geneva are thus impeded in theirplans,
three professors of the Protestant seminary of
Strasburg—Messrs. Reuss, Baum and Cunitz—
have conceived the idea oferecting another monument
,to consist of nothing less than the Reformer's com
plete works. This is a great undertaking ; it is
calculated that this edition will fill 75 to 100 quarto
voltimes. I must here give some details which will
'interest I;our readers. It ,is a strange and sad fact
that a very large part of Calvin's works have never
been published.- When theologians of the second
and third order have filled. libraries with their
books„ is it not surprising that many writings. Of
the greatest theologian of the Reformation have
never been printed? And yet this is perfectly
true. There are in the public archives of Geneva
and elsewhere—in Paris, Germany, Holland, &c.,—
a large number of Calvin's manuscripts, such ,as
his letters, sermons, religious tracts; &c.; still un
published. The present editors have examined
with the strictest care the manuscripts of Calvin
which have survived the ravages of time; they
have collated and copied them. • This publication
will comprise: 1. The doctrinal and polemic wri
tings of the Reformer; 2. His commentaries on
the Old and New Testament; 3. His smaller wri
tings, tracts, letters, &c., 4. His sermons and
works of popular edification. We shall have truly
a Calvinus redivivus, and what an inexhaustible
treasure for men who are studying theology!
General Synod of the Reformed Presbyte.
rian Ohurch.—This venerable Body has just ter
minated an interesting session of eight days, in
Cedarville, Ohio. Rev. Dr. Crawford, father of
General Crawford, of the army, being Moderator,
and Rev. Dr. McLeod of this city, Stated Clerk.
Chaplains Wyatt, of the 79th New York, and Mc-
Millan, * of the 82d Pennsylvania Volunteers," were
present, and interesting reports of their services in
the army were given to Synod. The reports from
Presbyteries were full of interest. An improving
state of religion was indicated, and an earnest patri
otism pervaded them all. They showed that the
Government was receiving a hearty support from
this department of the Church of Christ. Several
of the ministers are in the army. Ruling elders
and 'members, and many of the baptized youth, had
laid down their lives on the field of battle.' Synod
appointed a mission to the freedmen. 'Rev. David
Steele was elected an additional Professor in the
Theological Seminary. Measures were taken to
prqcure additional missionaries for Northern India,
and for the domestic field. Rev. W. Sterling was
present as a corresponding delegate from the Gene
ral Assembly of the Presbyterian Church, and Synod
was enlivened by an appropriate address from him,
to which the Moderator responded. • One of the
principal acts of Synod of public interest was the
resolution to re-ommend to other Christian denonti
nations, and to Congress, by memorial, the taking
of steps to procure in the mode provided by itself;
such amendments to the Constitution of the United
States as . would secure a recognition 'of the being
and sovereignty of God, and remove the ambigui
ties regarding Slavery in that doquinent. Dr.
McLeod, of this "city, offered a Paper on this sub
ject, which was substantially 'adopted; and the
whole matter was referred to a committee to give
effect to the 'resolutions passed. Synod adjourned
to meet nest year in 1)r. Wylie's church,
phia. And so terminated ap active, harmonious,
business session of this department of the Church of
God.—.N: Observer. . `
Editor
Presbyterian, Union in Seotland.--The Week
ly Review for May 23, is largely occupied with a
report of the able and deeply interesting debate in
the Synod of the United Presbyterian Church on
Friday . May 15th, upon t l6 e various overtures
brought before it on Union with the Free and
other non-established Presbyterian bodies of Scot
land. Rev. Mr. Kerr and Dr. Cairns of Berwick
Presbytery, Rev. Mr. Taylor and Mr. Powers of
Lancashire, Rev. Dr. A. Thomson, Rev. Drs. King'
and Edmond of London, Professor Harper, Rev.
Dr. Robson of Glasgow, and others supported a
motion for a Committee to confer with any. Commit
tee that might be appointed by the Free Chutelt on
Union. The opposition made was slight. The
Review calls it rather a consensus than a " discus
sion" on Union. The points of difference between
the two bodies, especially ,on the questions of
Church Establishments and the'mode of supporting
the ministry were referred to in the most frank and
manly spirit, and it was felt that only upon the
freest avowal ;of such differences and a fall agree,-
tuent to tolerate them in each other could a cordial
union be reached. The discussion occu pied a large
part of the day and evening,when the motion of Dr.
King for a Committee of Conference was agreed to
by a vote of 178 to 17. The result was received with
loud ,oheers and Dr. Cairns, one of the chief promo
ters of the movement, was called to lead in prayer.
On Tuesday, the Moderator submitted the following
names as the Committee on Union, and in doing so,
remarked that it was very large list, and very
properly so, as showing the very great importance
which the Court attached to the subject : Professors
Eadie, Lindsay, Harper, and M'Miehael ; Drs.
King, Cairns, Robson; Thompson, George John
ston, 'William Johnston, Smith, James Taylor,
Joseph Brown, and Frew; Rev. Messrs. M'Leod,
Glasgow ; Alexander M'Ewen, Glasgow ; Calder
%sod Thomas, Marshall, Alexander Leitch, Beckett,
Barr, Jedbnrgh ; Brooks, Johnstone ; and Scott,
Manche.stcr ; , and (elders) Messrs. James Peddie,
James Mitchell, James Marshall, Thomas T. Dunn,
Peter Hamilton. James Paton, Samuel Stitt, J. B.
Kidston, Dayid M'Cowan, Andrew. Fyfe, James
Young, William gown, with the Moderator—Dr.
Harper, convener. On the suggestion of Dr. John
ston, Litnekilns, it was agreed to invite the co
operation of Mr, Henderson to work with that
Committee. What the Free Church will do with
this question—or rather by this time probably have
done—we shall soon see. Meanwhile m; the sugges
tion of Prof. Gibson, the Free Presbytery of Glas
gow has agreed to overture the assembly advis
ing caution in dealing with the subject, and a due
" respect to the maintenance in their integrity of
the'principles of the authorized Standards of this
Church, and especially of those distinctive princi
ples for which this Church had been honored to
contend and to suffer." Prof. G. in a speech made
in support of the motion,expressed his fear lest too
hasty measures should create a new division or send
back many from the Free Church into the estab
lishMeht. :

A religions man writes.from the Army of the
Cumberland :—" Do turn a flood of reading matter
ou us, That we may be able to quench the thirst of
these brave soldiers. Every page of reading matter
has been read over and over, and reread, and then
given to others, who use it the same way till it is
worn out."
U d tip iu ,
The Siege of Viaksbutg, though vigorously
pressed is proceeding hut slowly compared with the
expectations raised by Grant's rapia and successful
movements in the rear. Reinforcements are going
to our forces, the Ninth Army Corps having been
ordered to that duty'from Mt. Sterling, By. The
rebels have picked up courage since Gen. Grant's
unsuccessful assaults on the works and are trying
to send reinforcements to the beleaguered city. As yet
nothing important has transpired on the rear of our
lines. .Expeditions North and East for fortyfive
miles have failed to discover the enemy. The Cin
cinnati Convnercial of June 8, however, published
a letter from Memphis June 3d. which repeats Pem
berton's intercepted despatch to Johnston about
being able to hold out ten days, etc. It adds the fol
lowing: Gee (Medians is on thp west side of
Black River bridge, with his entire division, watch
ing Johnston who appeared on the first and second
with five thourAnd infantry and some artillery. Shots
were exchanged and the rebels retired. Johnston
is said to have 18,000' men, poorly armed and defi
cient in artillery.
Siege operations at Vieksburg are pressed with
increased vigor. The siege guns commenced a gene
ralhombardment on the third instant. Result un
known. The two armies are close together—with
in talking distance. A general attack was to be
made on the 4th inst. The formidable batteries
albng the Mississippi, on the first line above the
water batteries, are all silenced, save one at the ex
treme upper part of Vicksburg, where the Chicka
saw Bayou comes into the Mississippi. It mounts
two heavy guns, and two 28 poundep..
Another expedition bas been sent up the Yazoo
ricer to capture and destroy - the rebel transports.
The rebels burned two of the, best of theii vessels
and the expedition report nine steamers destroyed
valued at $700,000. As the result, the <rebels have
no means, with the exception of a few steamers
beyond Fort Pemberton, to transport anything by
water on that river. A deserter 'from ViCksburg,
sent outby Gen. Pemberton to carry despatches to
Johnsten,.gave himself up to our skirmishers, and
handed over his despatches to Gen. G?ant. lEtis
story is told by a correspondent of the Chicago Tri
buns May 31. The substance , of -the despatch to
Johnston was an urgent demand fot help. Num
ber of reinforcements required, 30,000—advising
retreat if he could not bring that number upon
Grant's rear within ten days—number of troops in
Vicksburg, 18,000—on band, thirty days' rations
for the garrison, one meal a day—ammunition
scarce, particularly gun caps. Donglass was further
instructed to ascertain the exact number of Johns
ton's army, and report as speedily as possible. He
says there are 18,000 fighting men in Victsburg.
He represents the damage to Vicksburg, occasioned
by the fire of our gains and mortars as immense.
Ho estimates that at least one-fffth of the city is
destroyed. Up to Wednesday, at„twelve o'clock,
the names of one hundred women and children were
reported at the provost marshal's office, who were
killed by the explosion of ,our missiles in different
parts of the city. Among these is said to have been
the wife of Pemberton himself. The depot and
courthouse are but slightly. injured; the jail is near
ly destroyed. The largest magazine, containing
three-quarters of the shot and shell'in Vicksburg,
is blown up; horses, cattle, and mules are killed,
and a large number of houses burned. On the day
of the assault 2,000 were killed and wounded, in
cluding eighteen colonels and lieutenant colonels.
An attack upon our forces, principally negro re
cruits; at Milliken's bend, took place on Saturday
June 6, -(other accounts say on Sabbath.) The re
bels, under McCullough, were two thousand five
hundred strong, 'while the Federal force consisted
of three negro reginients and the 23d lowa Regi
ment. The rebels made a desperate charge at day
light, when the negroes broke in confusion ; but on
finding that their captured companions were being
slaughtered they were rallied, and with great des
peration drove the rebels back. The loss "was heavy
on both sides.
Siege of Port Hudson. While Gen. Grant be
sieges Vicksburg, Gen. Banks presses with equal
vigour and determination the siege of Port. Hud
son. Ah attack was made May 27th, in which
after &severe and bloody fight the advantage was
believed to be decidedly with us. Gen. Weitzel on
the left took the 6 gun battery which destroyed the
U. S. steamer Mississippi. The attack on the
right under Gen. Sherman was remarkable from
the eitraerdipory bravery, and fierceness displayed
by the negro regiments. The 2d regiment Lours
ana Native Guard, Col. Neilson, were in the charge
upon the enemy's works ; they went on in the ad
vance, and when they came out six out of' nine hun
dred men could not be accounted for. It is said on
every side that they foitght with. the 'desperation of
tigers. One negro was observed with a rebel sol-.
dier in his grasp, tearing the flesh from his face
with his teeth, other weapons. having . Ailed him.
After firing one volley they did not deign to load
again, but went in with bayonets, and wherever
they had a 'chance it was all up? with the rebels.
Another correspondent says : " Six times did they
charge upon the fortifications, clambering over a
• huge abattis and marching unitedly forward,' while
at each step th'e concentrated fire of the adjacent
batteries lessened their ranks with a fearful rapidity.
Fully fifty per cent of their number were left dead
upon the Inush-heaps to demonstrate their bravery.
The remainder receit ed at the hands of the Com
mending General and his battle-stained comrade s
that generous appreciation which their deeds had
earned. A revolution in sentiment toward colored
troops took place upon that field of carnage, which
in itself was i glorious victory." The batteries on
the right, however were not carried ; in the centre
under Gehs. Auger and Grover the enemy was
driven from the rifle pits and compelled to take the
inner line of defence. Gen. Banks' despatch says :
" The enemy was driven into his works, and our
troops moved up to the fortifications, holding the
. opposite sides of the parapet with the enemy on. the
Iright. Our troops still hold their position on the
left. After dark the main body, being exposed to a
flank fire, withdrew to a belt of woods, the skir
mishers remaining close upon the fortifications."
Admiral Farragut's squadron co-operated throwing
13 inch shell into the enemy's works and dismount
ed five of his guns, without suffering any casualties.
Brig. Gen. Sherman was seriously and Brig. Gen.
Neil Dow, slightly wounded. Gen. Banks says :
" Our losses front the 23d to this date, in killed,
wounded, and missing, are nearly one thousand, in
• eluding, I deeply regret to say, some of the ablest
officers of the corps. I am unable yet to- report
s them in detail."
An immense caravan, comprising 600 wagons;
filled with negroes to the number of 6000, together
with 3000 mules and horses and 1500 head of cattle,
under escort of nearly all the troops in Teche
county as a guard, (the advance regiment being
the 41st Massachusetts, Colonel Chickering) arriv
' ed a'; New Orleans from Barr's Lauding on the
30th.—A committee Of the Union associations had
requested Governor Shepley to order a requisition
of the voters in the State in order that loyal people
can select delegates to a Convention at which they
will organize a State government of Louisiana,
loyal to the United States. Governor Shepley
cheerfully:promises. all the aid in his power.
Admiral Dupont is said to have been relieved
from the command of the Atlantic Squadron at his
own request in consequence of a disagrement with
[ General Hunter, who was wanting in co-operation.
To this deficiency the writer attributes the blunt
failure in Ch'arlesten harbor, where the fight would
have been renewed had Hunter corresponded in a
land attack. Hunter's failure, on the other hand,
was ascribed, at the time to his want of a respecta
ble force : and it is asserted that without a large
army, co-operation could not be expected of him.
With regard to the iron-clads the admiral believes
that they are invaluable against masonry works like
Sumpter, but of less avail against earthworks like
the Ogeechee batteiy, or Mohltrie, because the lat
ter require a great concentration of guns. The
Monitors are the entering point of the wedge, but
wooden ships, with their numeroas guns, must fol
low, Admiral Dupont has also brought, charges
against chief engineer Stimers for sp'eaking impro
perly of himself in regard to abandoning the attack
on Charleston Harbor. It appeared that the engi
neer said to a witness that on the morning after the
attack on Charleston the chief engineer reported ail
the Monitors in readiness to renew; that the admi
ral's decision created great chagrin among the offi
cers ; and that, but for being wrongly influenced,
the admiral would have ordered another attack.
Mr.' Stimers, did not consider the; attack on Sump
ter an earnest one but his remarks were firivata and
his exceptions respectful.
Desperate Caval . Pight:— For some weeks
past, rumors have beef, rife of an intended expedition
of the rebel Gen. 4 into Maryland and Pennsyl
vania. A large cavalry force of rebels had been
assembled between Beverly's Ford on the Rappa
hannock, and Culpepper Court House, with a view
to such a movement, and a document fell into Gen.
Pleasanton's hands, revealing the intention. of Gen.
Stuart to move early on the morning of June Ott.
With commendable % Promptness, a large force of
cavalry under Generals Buford and Gregg, with
infantry and artillery, were despatched to the scene.
At half part twelve o'clock on Monday night, the
cavalry bivouacked near Beverly Ford, on the Rap
pahannock river. At three o'clock the next morn
ing, the men were called, the horses fed and sad
dled, and, at four o'clock they crossed the ford.
They fell upon the enemy at five o'Cloek, within an.
hour or two of the time the enemy was to have stunt
ed on his raid. General Buford's force, which was
on the right, first met the enemy's pickets half a
mile south of the ford, when a severe engagement
immediately commenced, the rebels being in heavy
force, ,and resisting the advance of our troops with
continuous hand-to-hand fighting. When Gregg,
who crossed at Kelley's Ford, brought his force up
to the fight and became engaged, the enemy gradu.
ally gave way, disputing every inch of the ground
desperately. 'Nearly all the fighting was done by
the cavalry, and it was of the bloodiest character,
mostly hand to band with sabres and pistol. In
the woods the heavy timber was not very dense, so
that horsei could advance through it, but the un
dergrowth was thick, and when a trooper drelped
he was effectually concealed. Our own loss was con
siderable, and the slaughter of the rebels was fear
ful. Our men made more than a dozen charges into
the midst of the rebetranks, relying almost entirely
won the sabre, which they used' with terrible effect.
The enemy, on the, other hand, repeatedly charged,
but relied, for the most part, on their revolvers.
Both sides were repeatedly driven back in the
course of the battle, though we succeeded in driving
the rebels (Fitzhugh Lee's and Wade Hampton's
divisions of cavalry, with their artillery, all com
manded by Major General J. E. 8., Stuart) back to
a point about six miles southeast of where their
pickets were first encountered.. General Pleasanton
then found the enemy so heavily reinferced with
infantry and artillery, as to make it prudent to
return to this side of the river. The recrossing
commenced at about four o'clock P.M., General
Pleasanton bringing off about two hundred prison
ers, his own wounded, and the bodies of those of
his officers who had beeil killed in the engagement.
Another account says : - Our forces formed a junc
tion near Brandy Station, at 2 o'clock. The fighting
of both columns, under Buford and Gregg, was
very gallant, not a single instance of misbehavior
occurring. The grandest charge was Made by the
6th Pennsylvania Cavalry, supported by the 6th
Regiment of Regulars, when they dashed on a
whole brigade of the enemy, and where taken in
flank by another brigade. Though thoroughly
overpowered, they gallantly cut their way out. The
enemy's force consisted of five brigades, 12,000
strong, with 16 pieces of artillery ; numerically su
perior to ours. We lost a Colonel and several other
officers killed and wounded. The rebels admit the
loss of- a general and three colonels killed, with
many privates, but claim a victory.
Across the Rapiialiaintock.—On Friday the
sth a division of the siith 'army corps crossed the
Rappahannock on a reconnoisance in force, carried
the position of the rebels inlheiiritle pits and took
100 prisoners with a loss of 5 killed and 20 wound
ed. Another reconnoisance was made across the
Rappahannock June 9th. Detachments amount
ing to a division crossed Kelly's 'ford without
loss. It is now represented that G-eneral Lee's
army is double what it was at the battle of Chan
cellorville. Reinforcements have been drawn from
the Blackwater, and North and South Carolina.
Meanwhile every pies:Auden is being taken against
the probable attempts or this f!rce to penetrate the
loyal states, particularly Maryland and Pennsylva
nia. Gov. Curtin has issued a proclamation'calling
on our citizens to respond to the attempts of our
government to prepare for the defence of the border.
Gen. Couch is placed at the head of a new depart
ment, called the department of the Susquehanna,
with headquarters at Claanabersburg." He asks for
volunteers of all arms, especially naming those who
have already served in the ranks of the army. Th e
rebel Gen. Moseby has made a dash across the
Potomac towards Poofestille with 'seine cavalry, tut
retired immediately. •
More Cavalry Raids.—Our forces having been
withdrawn from West Point Va., and the suspicion
of th?. enemy, having been lulled, a small detach
intent under Col. Tevis passed up the Mattapony
river to Walkerton, King Williams County, June
4, and destroyed the' iron foundry, machine shop,
cotton mills; lumberyard, four government ware
houses, a large mill with thousands of bushels of
grain, in that vicinity ; they returned bringing away
a hrge lot of negroes, cattle, horses and mules.
Col Montgomery with part of the second South
Carolina, cclored, June 3, penetrated the rice
swamps along the coast about 25 miles nnd secured
a thousand contrabands and destroyed rebel prop
erty to the amount of a million of dbllans. The
town of Bluffton was destroyed. These raft& added
to those of Grierson in Mississippi; Streight in
Georgia, and Stoneman and Kilpattick in 'Virginia
have a disheartening effect on rebeldom. The
Mississippians in Bragg's army got tired of the
rebellion, mutinied, an& *ant to go home, while
Kilpatrick, has spread terror even to the fortifica
tions of Richmond,.
The Reduction of. Hooker's Army..-LA Wash
ington letter says " General Hooker's army is not
so much reduced by the departure 'of the regiments
whose term of service has 'expired, as people seem
to think. The number of regiments leaving makes an
impression upon the country, but it is generally
