June f2Lst 1863.
PEA R SPY suppose you know that we
left Kentucky some weeks ago to come here
to reinforce General Grant. We landed at
Dailies' Bluff, in the Yazoii, about ten days
ago, and have been ever since very busily
engaged in handling the spade, pick and
axe. Gen. Grant devolved the duty on the
oth Corps of checking the progress of John
ston's relieving army. Gen. Parke who
commands the Corps a,signed each Division
its proper front with instructions to fortify
and obstruct the approaches. so as to make
sure to whip the ]Reba. We can do that
anyhow—but Gen. Welsh seems disposed
to do as the other Divisions are doing, and
consequently exercises as in digging rifle
pits and clearing avaby the trees in front,
in order that our batteries and rifles con
have full play on Johneton's Ras. Gen.
Grant says he hos plenty of troops to take
•Viirk,hurg and he con spare some to aid us
in keeping back Johnston. The weather
here ie decidedly hot, about T.i prenheit 11G.
Swinging pick and spade under such cir
eutmdanees might nitur.st excui.e a greeny
for making copperhead exhortations. We
used to think we had the cream of army
life, and boasted f it in the Spy, but it is
over for the present.
We were pleased yesterdiy to meet two
old,friends from Columbia, who are doing'
good service fur their country in western
regiments. I allude to 1)r. Warren McChes
ney end Nathaniel Wike. lir. McChesney
is an Assistant Surgeon in the tlth Missouri,
Wike, is Sergt. in the 8:h Missouri—both
of them hare glinel inueli credit in their
po-itions and retlect great credit an our good
old Columbia. They are well, and send
their lure, to their friends et home.—
Like good soldiers they are full of fun And
desire to be remembered, especially, to
Robt• Hamilton, E-q., and Mrs. Gardner.
Our boys are all well end in good cheer ;
all are with us, except friends, McClane and
Cuhick, who, since their little episode in and
with Bourbon, are non este. • I do not at
tempt to guess when Vicksburg will fall,
but fall it must. When it does, I suppose
we will go somewbereelse, perhaps to Penn
sylrania—as rumor says L3O has outwitted
"F. J." and is marching towards the Sus
quehanna.. I should feel alarmed for the
Colninbia bridge was it not that the 135th
had returned after their terrible campaign
on the Rappahannock.
Liger is :25 cents per glass here, supply
short, finder ditto. Lary says he wishes
he had never enlisted." My love to Zoo Zoo,

=I
It has pleaced Almighty God to hearken
to the supplications and ?rayers of an
afflicted people, and to vouchotfc to the army
and navy of the United Stags victories on
the sea so signal and etfectiM as to furnish
reasonable grounds for riagmented confi
dence that the Union of tlvse States will be
su:taine 1, their Constituton preserved, and
their peace and prosperity permanently re
stored.
But these victories lave been accorde
not without sacrifices ci life, limb, health,
and liberty, incurred 3y bravo, loyal, arid
patriotic citizens. Etonestic afflictions in
every part of the couitry follow in the train
of these fearful boreivements. IC is meet
and right to recogni and confess the pres
ence of the Almight: Father, and the power
of His hand equally in these triumphs and
sorrows.
Now therefore be it known, that I do set
apart Thursday, the Gth day of Aogust next,
to be observed as o day for national thanks
git.ing, praise andproyer, I invite the people
of the United Sates to assemble on that oc
casion in their customary places of worship,
and in the fonn.apptoved by their own con
science, and render the homage due to the
Divine 11 desty for the wonderful thingsll.
has done in the nation's behalf, and invoke
the influence of Lis Holy Spirit to subdue
the anger which has produced and so long
sustained a needless and cruel rebellion; to
change the hearts of insurgents; to guide the
counsels of Mc gosernrnent with wisdom ad
equate to so great a national emergency,
and to visit with tender care and consolation
throughout the length and breadth of our
land all those wit) through the vicissitudes
of marches, voyages, battles and sieges have
been brought to suffer in mind, body or 05-
WC. 'And finally to lead the whole nation,
through the paths of repentance and sub
mission to the Divine will, back to the per
fect enjoyment of union and paternal peace.
In witness whereof I hereunto set my

States to be affixed.

WAR NEWS.
The Retreat of Lee into Virginia
ARMY or TUC POTOMAC, July 11.—Tho
first news of the retreat of Lee and his army
into Virginia was received at Hagerstown
at four o'clock this morning, from a citizen
who lived within their lines.
General Kilpatrick, commanding a caval
ry division at that point, soon had his men
in the road, and reached Williamsport at 7
o'clock where he found 300 relKl soldiers who
had deserted.
The news rcaelied General 31eade's head
quarters at five o'clock, when Gen. Buford's
division of cavalry was ordered t..) Falling
Waters, where they engaged and captured
a brigade of rebels under General Pettigrew,
who was killed.
The position of the rebels was naturally a
strong one, but their works wer. not of much
account, consisting, principally of hurriedly
constructed rifle pits.
After Lee had retreated across the river
it was ascertained that he commenced to
mote his artillery to the rear as early as
yesterday morning, which was continued
during the whole day, depending almost
wholly upon the ii.fantry and cavalry to
keep our array in check.
General Meade held n council of war on
Saturday and Sunday evenings, consisting
of his corps commanders, when the question
of attack was freely discussed. All the
generals.nssembled were in favor of an im-
I mediate attack, except Sedgwiek, Slocum,
Sykes and French.
General Meade himself was in favor of
active operations, but finding his corps com
manders equally divided, he hesitated to
giro the older, and the rebel army was al
lowed to make its escape.
An order was issued on Monday evening
for a movement along the whole line at 7
o'clock this morning.
Yesterday afternoon about 2,000 of the
Pennsylvania militia, which arrived in the
vicinity of llagerstown, were taken to the
front and put into action. They were ha
mediately ordered to charge the enemy,
which was promptly done, but not without
severe hiss.
" 43."
B.Acrt MORS, July 15.—The American has
received the following dispatch :
WI LL 31 ,, P0RT, July 14.-1 telegraphed
to you from Boonbboro this morning that
Lee was retreating, and would probably es
cape across the river. Our army was un_der
orders to move at daylight. It moved only
to find no enemy in front of it. I fullo'vved
the advance down to this place, and a clean
er clearing out than the rebels have _made
could not be imagined.
The rebels commenced their retreat yes
terday morainic. Their infantry crussed
principally upon a pontoon bridge at Fall
idg Waters, and their wagons and artillery
at the furl at this place.
The river is not so high as was reported.
The people of Williamsport say the rebels
dreaded an attAck yesterday, as a part of
their force was already acr e :s the ricer,--
Their ortificaticirs- in front of here are

TUI REBEL LOSSES
HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF TUE POTOMAC,
July 14.--The officers report that they cap
tured about 2,0Z10 prisoners, 2 guns, several
caissons and stands of colors, this morning
at Falling Waters and Williamsport.
The following estimates have been made
by competent officers of Lee's losses since
crossing the Potomac on his raid into Penn
sylvania: Killed, 5,000; wounded, 0,000;
prisoners, 0,500, uninjured.
It is known that 6,000 wounded rebels
passed through Winchester three days ago,
and 300 wagons full of wmnded have since
been carried over the river. The desert ions
will probably reach 3,01,) making a total
loss of not less than 33 000.
A number of des,rters from our army
have arrive] in camp, and ,early trials mill
be had, and the punishments prescribed
awarded them.
