LATE SOUTHERN NEWS. Exchange of Prisoners Stopped. Reported Slave Insurrection and Mas- saerc on Iloanobe Island. GUERILLAS RECOGNIZED BY JEFF DAVIS, Rebel Official Keji«rt of the Seven Pines Battle. ACBUITTAL OF TATN ALL, THE EXCHANSE OP PRISONERS The basis of tbe peudiug negotiations For the exchange of prisoners has been made 4 ‘ tha carte! of 18151.” This iDßtitiment was between recognised nations,and stipu lated for “American agents at Halifax and other places, and for British agents to the United States; a»d stipu lated not only for an exchange of prisoners of the same rank, but for equivalents In men, where they were of different'ranks,” and for the parole of the surplus. This carte! has no reference to a most important cir- cumsiaßce coDDectcd with priaonera, and that is the ar rest antf's&zdriyf private individuals by the enemy. It is to bfc hfcra£sSt the Goyeromeat has given positive in* stnictionS Ki'lhrDoQfedßiate to insist upon tbe cessation of these iUegalactajiand that, unless posi tively disavowed and abandoned, ne exchange will be permitted to be made; Private citizens are as much under the protection of the Government as Confede rate relatives, of tbe to abandon themto the cruelties of the enemy* whhoufc the power/ ofiretaliation, of which we will have deprived mirselveshvoen we have paroled their prisoners, would be an act of injustice and cruelty which the public ought not to tolerate in the Goverumont.. We understand that at the last interview between Gen. HtU and Gen. Dtx, the commissioners, that the tatter ob jected to a clause forbidding the arrest of citizens, and that the negotiations wet e suspended to allow General Dix to visit bis Government for instructions. Upon this matter the country will rejoice to know that Gen. Hilt’s firmness and dutermina'ion would have broken off all ne gotiation rather than not have secured this important sti- pulation., v He justly considered the rights ofcitizens within the enemy,** lines as entitjed to the fostering care of this Qo vernmtntf-And tbat'tii depVive onrselvifsbf ail means of ttipulatlng against the repetition of such at it is not only iKc rigJiU but the duty of every loyal citizen of the Confederate States, to resist, by all means in his power, even to the death-. if necessa ry,the attempt of the enemy, in a badv or single, to in vade his domicile or to capture his person, or that of his wife, child, ward, or servant, or to take from him, against hiß will, any of bis property; and if, in making such re sistance, whether armed or not, our citizens are captured by such invading enemy, have they not the right to de mand to be heated by the enemy as other prisoners of war 7 and will not this Government exert all its power, if necessary, to the end that its citizens are thus protect ed and treated ? This is a war waged against the sovereignty 0! the several etaua of the Confederacy, and against the lives, liberty and property of every citizen yielding allegiance to the States and Government of their choice, in which they reside. Such a war has no parallel in the history of Christian nations. -I respectful y request you to give me your opinions on the several points in this letter, in a form to be submit ted to my constituents, to enlighten them in regard to the extent of their rights and powers, as viewed by this Government, and how far their Government will protect thfm in the exercise of those rights, which, toanintelli geni Ireemar, are dearer than life itself. Your early answer is respectfully requested. With great respect, ' JOHN £. CLARKE, OoRFEDBRATB STiTBS op America/War Department,. Richmond, Va, July 16,1862.—H0n. .Jons B. Clarke, C. S. Senate: Sin: I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 15th inst., and to reply, that Partisan Rangers are a part of the Iro visional ArmF of the Confederate States, subject to all the regulations adopted for its government, and entitled to the same pro tection as prisoners of war. Partisan Rangers are, in no respect, diflerentfrom troops of the line, except that they are not brigaded, and are employed oftener on de < tached service. They require Biricfcer discipline than other troops to make them <-iHcient, and, without dis cipline, they become a terror to their Iriends, and are contemptible in the eyce of tbe enemy With reference to your inquiry as to the protection wh‘cb the Government will expend to private citizens taken in hostile nets against the enemy, it is not easy to lay down a general rule.,; War, os conducted by civilized nations, is usually a contest between the respective : Governments. of the belligerents, and private individuals, remaining Quietly *t home, ere respected in their rights of perion and pro |p perry. In return for this privilege, they are expected to •w -JAie do part in hostilities, unless called on by their •Goveremeiit. If, however, iu violation of tfalsusage, private citizens oi Missouri should be oppressed and maltreated by the public enemy, theyhave unquestionably a right to take'• up aims fn their own defence; and if captured and eon lined by the enemy, under such circumstances, they are eutilid ai .citizens of the Oonf-derate States, to all the protection which that Government can afford: and among the measures to which it may be useful to resort, is that of the ?f» talionis: We shall deplore the necessity of retaliation, as adding greatly to the miseries of the war, without advancing its cbjeois; and, therefore, we shall act with great ctrciun sptctioii, and onlyupon facta clearly ; ascertained,: But if it ls our only means of compelling the ; observance of the usages of civilized warfare, vee , cannot hesitate to resort to it, when the proper time arrives, Very respectfully, your oberient servant,, GEORGE W. RANDOLPH, Becretaiy of War. .JOHNSTON’S OFFICIAL REPORT OF THE BATTLE OF .SEVEN PINES. 'Richmond, June 24« h, 1862—General S. Cooper, Ad jutant and Inspector Gent ral—Sir : Before the 30th of May I had ascertained from trusty bcoiiih that Keyes’ Corps was encamped on this aide of the Obickahomlny, jiear the WilHamstmrg road. On that day Major General p ii, Hill reported a strong ibfidy immediately in bla front. Ou receiving this reportl determined to attack them next morning, hoping to be able to'defeat Keyes* Corps completely in itsmore advanced position before It could be i eii forced. * ' General 13ill, supported by the Division of General Lengsimt, (who had the direction of operations on the right,) was to advance by tbe Williamsburg road, to at tack the enemy in front; General Huger, with his Divi sion, wus to move down the Charles City road, in order to attack In flank the troops who might be engaged with BUI and Longstreet, unless he found in bis front force enough to occupy tbe Division, General Smith was to march to the junction of the New Bridge road, and the Nine Mile road, to be in readinesseitherto fall on Keyes' right Sank, or to cover Dongstreet’e left. They were to move at daybreak. Heavv and protracted 'rains daring the afternoon and night, by swelling the streams of the Obickabomiuy, increased the probability of our having to deal with no other troops than those of Keyes. The same cause prevented the prompt and punctual movement of the troops. ‘Those of Smith, Hill, and Longstreot were in portion early enough, however, to commence operations by & o’clock*-A. H. Major General Lougatreet, unwilling to make ft partial attack, Instead of the combined movement which had been planned, waited from hour to hour for General Hager’s division. At length, at two o’clock P. MV he deter mined to attack without these troops. He accord ingly commenced bis advance at that hour, opening the engagement with artillery and skirmishers. By three o’clock* it became dose and heavy., . lu the meantime, I had placed myself on the left of the foice employed in this attack, with the division of Gene ral Smith, that 1 might be on a part of the field where I could observe, and he zvady to meet, any counter move ment which the enemy’s General might make against our centre or left. Owing to some peculiar condition of the atmosphere, the sound of the musketry did not reach us; .1 consequently deferred giving the signal for Geoer&l limitb’s advance till four o’clock, at which timß Major Jesptr Whiting, of General Smith’s staff, whom I had sent to learn the state of affairs with General Dong street’s column returned, reporting that it was pressing .on with vigor. - Smith’s troops were at once moved for ward,'-.- . The principal attack wasmade by Major General Bong street, with bis own. and. Major General D. H. Hill’s di vision—the latter mostly in advance. Hill’s brave troops, admirably commanded and gallantly led, forced their wav through the abattis* which formed the enemy’s external defences, and stormed their entrenchments by a deter mined and irresistible rmh. Such was the manner in which the enemy’s first line was carried. The operation was repeated with the same gallantry and success as our troops pursued their victorious career th rough the ene my’s successive comps and entrenchments. At each new, position they encountered fret-h troops belonging to it, and reinforcements brought on from the rear. .Thus they had to repel repeated efforts to retake works which they had carried. But their advance was never successfully re sisted. '•} Their onward movement was only stayed by the coming of night. By nightfall they had forced their way to the “Seven. Pines,” having driven •‘the. enemy back more than two miles, through their own camps, and from a series of entrenchments; and repelled every attempt to recoptnre them with great slaughter:; The skill, vigor, and decision with which tUeseopsrhtionslwere conducted by Gen. Longstreet are worthy of praise. He was worthily seconded .by Major GenerafcßlllVof whose conduct and courage be speaks iuthe highest terma s : Major General Smith’s division moved forward at four o’clock, Whiting’s three brigades leading. Their pro gress was impedded by the enemy’s skirmishers, which, with their supports, were driven back to the railroad. At this point Whiting’s own and Pettigrew’s brigades engaged a superior force of the enemy. Hood’s, fay my order, moved on to co-operate with-Longstreet, General Smith wasderired to hasten up, with all tbe troops within reach. Be brought up Hampton’s and Hatton’s brigades in a few minuteß.. . Tbe strength of the enemy’s position, however, ene bled him to held it until dark. About sunset, being, struck from my horse,, severely wounded, by a fragment of a Bhell, I was carried from the field, and Major G. W> Smith succeeded to the command. . Be was prevented from resuming his attack on the enemy's position ß6Xfc morning by the discovery of strong entrenobnients, not seen on the previous evening, His division bivoucked, on the night of the 31st, wUhin taas bm-ibot of the entrenchments which they were attack ing, when darkness stayed the conflict. The skill, en ergy, and resolution with which Major Genera! Smith directed the attack* would, have secured- success, if it could have been mace an hour earlier. " ' The troops of Dongetreet and Hill passed the night of tbe 31st on the ground which they had won. The enemy were stroi aly reinforced from the north Bide of the Chickah»miny on tbe eveuing and night of the 31st. The troops engaged by General Smith were undoubtedly fr,-m tbe other eideof the river, ; ' On : the morning of the! Ist of June, tbe enemy at tacked the brigade of General Pickett, which, wa* sup ported by tbat of General Pryor. . The attack was vigor ously repelled by these two brigades, the brunt of the fighting falling, on General Pickett.. This was the last demonstration made’by the enemy. Our troops employed the residue of the day in securing and bearing off the captured artillery, email arms, and otber property; and in the evening quietly returned to their own camps. . We took ten pieces ef artillery* six thousand (6,000) muskets, one garrison Hag and four regimental colors, besidis * largt Quantity of tents and camp equipage.?} Major General Long street reports the loss under bis com mand SB being about .3,000 Major General G. W. Smith reports his less at... ..1,233 T0ta1...,......,*.,.. That of the fßemy ia stated in their own news papers to have exceeded ten thousand-—an estimate which is, no doubt, short of the truth. Several bundled prisoners were taken, but I have re ceived no report of the number. Tour obedient servant, J jB.

Tainnll, on the 11th day of May, eighteen hundred and sixty-two, culpably,and without sufficient reason for bo doing. dW destroy, by fire, the Confederate steamer Vir ginia, in Hampton Hoads, Lear Norfolk, Virginia. : S[ ecijicahonSd—ln this, that the said Captain Josiah Tatnail, on the said 11th day of May, 1532, at Hampton Hoads, sear Norfolk, Virginia, did culpably destroy the Shid &1 earner Virginia, when, with the draught to which Bbe had been then and there, or might have been, re duced, she could have been carried up the James Rivertb a place of usefulness, free from immediate danger. Charge ll.—Negligence. • ; SpeciJicaiionJst —lnthiß,that the saidCJapt. Josiah Tatnali, on the slid 11th day of May, 1862, at said Hamp ton Bonds, did proceed te lighten the said steamer Vir ginia, for the purpose of taking her up James river, re* turning, however, her armament, ordnance stores, ueces sary coal, Lyvater, and provisions, without first haying ascertained, from sources of information withia his r< ach, to wbat extent th© draft of the said stea nor would be reduced by each lightening. Specification 2d —ln this, that the said Capt. Josiah Tatoall. after having lightened the said steamer Virginia to a certain draft, on the said 11th day of May, 1862, at said. Hampton Roads, then and there, and before said time, neglected and failed to ascertain, from sources of information within his reach, the fact that the Blid steamer, at said draft, could have been carried about forty miles above the mouth of James river, to Hog island.;.. . : Charge Hl.—-Improvident Conduct. Specification—ln this, that the said Captain Joatah Tmneli, on or about the 11th day of Mar, 1862, when off Sewell’s Point, in Hampton Boade, intending to take the eaid .steamer Virginia up James-river, did then and there proceed to lighten said steamer, instead of taking her np aaid JaMea river, and there lightening the necessity for bo doing arose, and to the extent of that necessity. -- ■ V'-’ I '- The statement of the parties being thus In possession of the court, the court was cleared for deliberation, and having maturely considered the evidence adduced, find as follows: That the first specification of the first t barge ia not proved. . That the second specification of the first charge is not proved. And that the accused is not guilty of tbe first charge. That the first; specification of the second charge is not proved. „ That the second specification of the second charge is not proved. And that the accused is not guilty of the second charge. That the specification of the third charge ia not proved. • And that the accused is not guilty of the third charge. The court do further find; that ; the accused had, while in command ©f the Virginia, and previous to the evacuation of Norfolk, thrown down the gage of battle to tbe enemy’s fleet in Hampton Roads, and that the enemy bad declined to take it up: that the day before Norfolk was evacuated, a consultation, at tbe instance of the Secretary of the Navy, was held by a joint commission of navy and army officers, as to the best disposition to be made of the ship; that the ac cused was in favor of passing Fortress Monroe, and tak-. ing the Bhipinlo York river, or of running down before Savannah wiib her; that in this be was overruled by the council, who advised that she should remain on this side of Fortress Monroe, for the protection of Norfolk and Richmond, and that, in accordance with this advice, he proceeded to regulate her movements: that, after the evacuation of Norfolk, Weetover on James river, be came the most suitable position for her to occupy; that, while in the act of lightening her for the purpose of tak ing her up to that point, the pilots for tbe first time de dared their, inability to take her up, even though her diaught should be reduced to Ua minimum of 18 feet; 'that, by the evacuation of Norfolk and tbe abandon ment of our forts below Weetover, both banks of the James river below that point were virtually given up to tbe enemy; tb&t the ship being thus cut off from Norfolk and Richmond was deprived of all outward sources of eupply, save those of the most precarious and uncertain character; that her stores ,of provisions would- not last for more tban.ihrce: weeks; that when lightened she •was made vulnerable to tbe attacks of the enemy, and th&t after having been lightened there were no available means of bringing her down to her proper draught and fighting trim, and that she had but two small boats, each capable of landing not more than fifteen or eighteen mm at ft time, even in smooth water. Such -being the facts and circumstances under the influence of which the Virginia found herself after the evacuation of Norfolk, It was, in the opinion of the court, only necessa-' ty tor the enemy to continue to refuse battle, as ho had : dene since it was first offered by Captain Tatoall, early in April, and thenceforward to keep strict watch about the Virginia, is order* when her prorisions were ex hausted, to make her his prize and the crew his pri soners. Being thus situated, the only alternative, in the opinion of tbe court, was to abandon and burn the ship, then and there, which, in the judgment of the court, was delibe rately and wisely done, by order of the accused. Wbertfore, the court do award to the said Captain Jorish Tatnalt an honorable acquittal. • j. Roseau, captalß ; Frank Buchanan, captain ; J N. Hollins, captain ; Robert G.

TUB BIDEBOABD THE SIDEBOAKO ‘ OF E VEST F AMILY OJ EVEBY/FAMILY [From tlio Bicbroond Whig, April 16.] The Charleston Courier makes a timely suggestion when it says the Tomato should receive particular atten tion from our farmers., Its extensive cultivation is ne cessary tor the preservation of the health of oiu soldiers. The Tomato seems to have a direct and peculiar action on the liver, producing all the beneficial effects of mer curial preparations without any of the injurious. ;It is said that the great success of the celebrated Plantation Bitters of Dr. Drake. which, previous to the present un happy condition of our country, was to' be found upon the .sideboard of thousands of Southern families, was owing to its principal ingredient bring the active princi ple of this plant. In confirmation of its value, we have beard ,one of our. most distinguished physicians remark that when he frit unwell in the spring of the year, or during; the.warm months of summer ami fall, he knew that it arose ■ from the torper of -his Liver, and he inva riably relieved himself ‘by partaking freely of these Bit ters fct liis meals. We trust that our troops will be sup plied with the above Bitters, if they can he procured, or if not, let them have ah abundant supply of the Tomato, as it is both hygienic and nourishing.

The natives of Peru arc generally supposed to have long previously been acquainted with its most wonderful qualities. Humboldt makes favora ble mention of the febrifuge qualities of this article.as an antidote toFever aiidAgue,Ditermittent and Malarious Fevers,in his extensive 'South American travels. The wife or the Yiceroyof Peru, having in her own person experienced the beneficial effect of tbe. baik, is said, on her return to Spain, in tbe yearl64o, to have first introduced this remedy Into Europe. After its introduction it was distributed and sold by the Jesuits, who are said to have obtained for it the enormous sum, of its weight in silver Prom this. cirbumataace it. was colled the Jesuit Powder, a title which it relainea for many years. In 1658, we are told that an Bngliehmaa, by the name of Hr John Talbot, employed it with great suc cess in France, in the treatment of Fever and Ague, Dyspepsia* Nervous Affections, Loss, of Appetite, Weak » ntss. arid.Debility* Palpitation of the Hearty Diarrhoea, Ac., Ac., under the name of English powder. At length, In thoyear 1879, he sold the secret of its origin and pre paration to Louis XIY., by whom it was divulged. It is now a standard remedy, and is employed in the prepara tion of the Plantation Bitters, (bee U. S. Medical Dis pensatory.); - v \ ’ - OASOABILXiA BABK (JASOABItLA BASK CASGABILLA BABE Is another important ingredient. It was known in Ger many 83 early as 1790, and much used as a substitute for Peruvian Strop.

It is a native of Brazil, and, as yet, unknown to the commerce of the world. r A Spanish writer says: . # # Administered with St. Croix Bum, it never fails to relieve Headaehe,Lfinguidness,Ner vous Tremor, Wakefulness, Disturbed Sleep, <£o-, and that it is used with great effect by the Brazilian, Spanish, and Peruvian .ladies ; to heighten tholr color aiid beauty.; It imparts cheerfulness to tbe disposition and 'brilliancy to the complexion.

W. R. WELLS, ,M. D., Buffalo, N.

MoCABTHY, M.D. / I am fully satisfied that Electricity, when understood according to its polarities and their relations to titefixed: laws of the vital economy, as taught by yon, Is the most powerful, manageable, and efficient agent known toman for the relief of pain and cure of disease. I would fur ther state that I b&vefor the past few weeks used Elec tricity .in my practice, to tbe exdnstojjof nearly all bttier remedies, and have been eminently successful, and com* rider te a universal therapeutic. Dayton, Ohio. D. MoCABTHY, M. D, P.W. MANSFIELD, M. D. : For the last nine months I havemade Electricity aspe elalty, and my faith is daily increasing holts therapeutic effects, and 1 believe, when applied according to. your discovery, it will cure all curable diseases, among which are numerous caseß never benefited by medicine. ‘ Buffalo, N. Y. , P.,W. MANSFIELD, M. D. AMOS GRAY, M.D.: : I would recommend my brethren in the medical pro fession to avail themselves of an opportunity of becom ing acauainted with Prof. Bollee’ new method of applying Electricity, which I think U not known to medical men, except those who have availed themselves of his instruc tion, fop lam very confident that much injury must ba the result of a wrong, unskilful application or so power ful an agent. AMOS GRAY, M. D. Detroit, Michigan. H. G. KIRBY, M.D.: What I have now to say is from actual observation, as Ih&ve spent most of my time for the last two months with Prof. Bolles, and have witnessed the effects of the Elec trical agent on from fifteen to twenty- five patients a day, Buffering from, almost every form of chronic disease j and, as strange as it may appear, in a majority of cases, a per fect cure was effected in from five to fifteen days. And I will here remark that most of his patients were afflicted with long-standing complaints, considered incurable by all other known remedies. H, G. KIRBY, M, D. Cincinnati,-Ohio. DAVID THURSTON, M. D-'* • I believe your discovery to be a reliable therapeutic agent, and feel it my duty to recommend it. Since Ihaye received instruction from you I have applied it in cases of Aphony, Bronchitis, Chorea, Amenorrhcea, Asthma, and Congestion, and find that I have the same auccaas that yen had when I was under your instruction. I in variably recommend medical men to avail themselves of an opportunity "of becoming acquainted v with your new method of apnlying Electricity. •••.•' - Detroit, Michigan. DAVID THURSTON, M. D. MARVIN GODDABD,M.D.:' i - : Prof. Bolles : A great revolution in mymiad and prac tice has taken place since I became acquainted with your new discovery of applying Galvanism, Magnetism, and other modifications of Electricity as a curative agent. I have found by many experiments that Electricity is a safe therapeutic agent in all acute and chronic cases whan applied according to your discovery. I desirc that medi cal men should become conversant with, your discovery. ULEVBland, Ohio.- MARVIN GODDARD, M. D. Boohester, N;:Y., Sept. 10,1859.. Prof. Bolles-ttDear Sir - The more I investigate this system oi practice, the more'confident X am that it is all powerful to meet the ten thousand diseases to which flesh, isbeir. ■ You, who first discovered Electricity to be a reliable therapeutici agent, should be., considereda great benefac tor of the race, for it is the only reliable system of cure for the woes and ills of suffering huoiaoity. It ib strange that physicians have become so wedded to their , several systems, brought up from the. darkness of past ages, that they will close their eyes against the light no tv beam leg forth through this syirtem of practice. All other sys tems I regard as the morning star to the rising sou. - P. SHEDD, M. D. Prof. BOLLES: The nearer I conform to your system of application, the more successful l am, and as I have examined all the guides arid works published upon the subject, and seen nothing in reference to jour theory, I do not hesitate to say Xbriieve it to be original with you, and the only reli able system extant for curing disease.* Respectfully yours, Toronto.
