A GREAT BATTLE IMPENDING. LARGE NUMBERS OF. SICK.AIVD.WOUNDED . . FROM THE VIRGINIA HOSPITALS. . WAsrunemor. - , June 16, P. M.—Another battle, bloody and frightful it most certainly will be, is now impending between the forces of General Hooker and those of General-Lee. The movements of the Army of the Potomac, as well as those of its' fierce opponent, have, for many days past, been wrapped in profound 'mystery. The air has beeM'filled rumors of all sorts,'and the soldiers; for at: least a' week; have been restive in anticipitiOn , Of some great, and decisive event. The intentions of the rebel leadera to force ourdines across into Pennsyl vania and Marylandhavebeen slowly bait yet surely discerned by our own generals .who, it in hoped, have effectually checkmated their.wily enemy. The 6th Army Corps, who have been lying at Fredericks burg for some time past, recrossed on Monday last, in accordance with instructions from the headquar ters of the army. This move was 'not effected alto gether with the secrecy, though with , all the success, - that was desired. No sooner had they left their quarters than the rebels were at their. heels. Fortunately, however, the , crossing had been almost completed, and the rebels force being small, the balancewere enabled to reach this side without much , loss. It is estimated that the move cost our, army about thirty or forty killed, and double that number wounded. The 6th corps being across, the entire army commenced_ to move, for it was soon ascertained that Gen; Lee had himself recrossed up_ he river, at a place called Rappahannock station. It was also observed that a few days previously Lee 3 army was reinforced to the extent of , , about fifty thousand men. Lee im mediately moved °inn the direction of Warrentm. Hooker prepared to follow, and the opposing forces have changed their bases, and a battle is unavoida ble. It will probably occur somtwhere near-Bull Run. • It is evidently General Lee'is wish , and design that the next battle shall occur on the - field which, on account of previous associations, has su perstitious importance. It is evident, howeVer,:that Gen. Lee has over-estimated his strength and his strategy, as future, developments, will shew. _ The sick and wounded soldiers who have been in ; the Acquia hospitals since the battle of Chan cellorville, have entirely deserted :their quarters. .Falmouth is also deserted. About. five' thousand sick and wounded arrived here to-day, on foot and in ambulanees. Boats have been Plying to and fro * from Washington to Aequie creek during the 'entire day, and before the nun' goes down all will have safely been provided with coin :eortable lodgings in the hospitals in and around Washington. All the portable baggage 'and camp utensils have also been removed, and the material which could not be brought was burned: , From Acquia Creek to Stoneraan's Station the railroad is 'in running order, but all that below the Poto mac Bridge was completely torn up yesterday (Saturday) afternoon. , The iron has been hauled safely this way. The bridge whieli spans the river about two milespelow was taken down, and the timber secured. For this work about five hundred soldiers were ~detailed detailed eince yesterday; who have been active and •laborious. Every movement thus r far 7 orC the part - ofour army hairbidirrnarked with -- foresight, activity. and determination, - and the _coming battle augurs victory for General Hooker, and a terrible crash for the straitened . hosts of the rebellion.

[Spedal Coriespondenee of The Prose.] - The flag-pf truce steamboat New York, Capt. Mul ford `commanding, came here last night, from City Point, on her way to Annapolis. Two hundred and fifty of our soldiers, who had been exchanged, and Messrs. Moore and DeVerus, the English and Aus- trian consuls at Richmond, were on board. They have no -news from Vicksburg; neither do their papers contain any information about the prolonged siege of that place, save a solitary ruiner which found its way into the Savannah Republican of the nth inst., and which was eagerly copied by the Rich mond Enquirer. Like drowning men, they wildly seize every hopeful straw blown across their dreary path by the uncertain breath of Madam Rumor. The gist of the matter is, that a gentleman had, a conversation with an offiber on the train, and said, he came frOin Vicksburg; that Gen. Joe Johnston . had succeeded in crossing the Big Black river, by.ts very shrewd manceuvre, in which he deceived_(?) our officers egregiously, who , concentratedtheirforces in expectation of an immediate attack front him; and thus they succeeded in reinforcing the starving gar rison, with a - force under Gen: W. Walker. An army.correspondent of the - Huntsville COnfederate, writing , from Ideldinville, Tenn., on . .. Tune 6, seeine to think Gen. Rosecrans is-goingto retreat—at leait hie wishes breed such thoughts: He imagines Gen. Roseerans' army:very much weakened by the loss of 25,000 men sent to Gen.. Grant, and , believee Gen.. Rosecrans will retire to the fortifibations of-Nash ville, Tenn. If Gen. Grant was - strengthened by 25,000 men,,Gen. Joe Johnston (as they love to. call" him). will never cross the Big Black riVer, and even . if he did, Gen.. Rosecrans would not yield in ineb.2 The rebels mistake the soldiers and theehieftaina they have to fight. They have allbeen weighed in the balance—at Fort Donelson, Shiloh, and IVlurfrees-, boroand helve never been found wanting. In a lengthy article, the Richmond, Enquirer. of Saturday, the 13th instant,.contains an extremely lengthY editorial, in, which pride, dignity,. and rage, are all stangely struggling:,for mastery.. Their quasi' diplomatic relations with Powers that deny fra ternity- With them, is• the subject of numb morti fication ; and though they aPprove the-dismissal Messrs. Moore and De Veus,.they only declaim, of the 'tardiness 'of the Government in sustainin ~i 2eztal dignity.) , Regrets are ei ,r.pressed4, about the ungrateful task they have taken up of ooinbatting any measurs, of the Administration,. and they humbly beg the pardon of Mr. Davis albeit, they ;use theirlast lines todeclare an exterminating War .against the .liepartmeit off State in 'general, and ~the Secretary thereof' Mr: Benjamin, in particular.. The gloomy question is asked, "What use havewe for a -- -Departmentof the: State'?" 'and they answer, " none ;" just what every sensible person would reply. .At times I entertain a feeling almost akin to pity -when Ithink of the agony their proud hearts must undergo as they learn the cruel fact of their-having no. " national dignity.”- .Mr. Afoore , s dismissal, at this late hour, is sadly deprecated. Why was not he allowed to pursue the "noisekisi tenor of his way l" But their unconquerable pride revolted at the bare thought of a consul - living within their Confederaey, yet being no part of it;? nay, having-in hie possession the detestable document which showed hint to be accredited to the 'Lincoln Government.

About a week ago there was a grand stir at this point,; all wastustle.and preparation ,•. eight days' . ration. were drawn, loaded in the wagons, and all bid fair for a forward move, and the troops were all very anxious that such a move should take place, for the rebels in front of us had moved from Chapel Hill cloier to our lilies, and limited our cavalry ex cursidnes''..south to .much shorter distance on the other side of the Harpeth river than they had been in the habit of extending them. And both cavalry and infantry here, were desinius of making a trip to Chapel Hill once more, or at least far enough to find outhoWstrong the rebels were at that plice, or this Major General Gordon Granger arrived here about the,same time with nearly all of his army, which had been' at Franklin, and made our force .here a pretty heavy one. But the move was put off from day to-day and the prospect of moving seems, less now than at any time before. THE THIRD DIVISION 14TH A. C Thesecond.brigade of the third division, 14th A. C., came . bp the Other day, and the division is all to gether once more. Two brigades of this division, to gether with the lat-East Tennessee Cavalry, have been stationed at Triune ever since they first made an adVance and occupied the town, and now that the other - brigade has joined them, they feel perfectly able, with the fortifications that have beewerected here, ' , to 'hold this 'road against any army in the SouthernConfederacy.for two days, and reinforce ments fiora Murfreesboro can reach here in eight hours. - The - fortifications. here are very strong, hav ing.beenlnade with a great deal of care and skill. One fort, „designed by and built under the superin tendence of Colonel Edward H. Phelps, of the 38th Ohio," On the crest of a high hill, has been declared impregnable by military men, and will remain an object of curiosity to the rising generation long years to come. • - REVIEW OF TROOPS. There wee a " grand' review" on Thursday' last of all the troops now here, by Major Gen. Granger. It was ,a thing Ulla division has never been troubled much with before, and a sight the citizens Of this section of the country have . never witnessed before. ThroUgh Franklin people have become quite used to them.' The men presented a magnificent appear ance,,and the sight was "a grand one to see, near twenty, thousand infantry and artillery manoeuvring in a ifing open - field. The cavalry were not on the ground, having been sent to Franklin to reinforce that place where we had heard artillery firing nearly all day. - , 4-Itlve in' the afternoon of the 4th, the cavalry brigade,lunder command of Colonel Campbell, of the 2d Michigan,, consisting of the ad Michigan, 6th Kentucky, and 9th Pennsylvania, started towards Franklin, but to come in below the town, and cut off the ;rebel cavalry that were believed to be trying to surround the town, while the Ist East Tennessee Cavalry was to !go direct towards Franklin; and before arriving there the situation of the country was such that we hoped to get the rebelaTiorth of the Harpeth river, and between two -.leas , onelCatimbell came upon a brigade of the rebeliqp' ' -,- e, ' 7- treexpectea - tu - nun tufettroa..i, they,/ ; .44 c., . , woods, allowed part ofCol.

One of the wounded WWI an orderly of ,Gen. Garrett, whose brigade was engaged. A " lone star" `nag, very beautifully worked. with silk, was taken by a captain of ,the 2d Michigan. In the meantime, , Col. Watkins, with the Rh - Kentucky, had made a detour in another direction, and captured an ammu nition wagon, with several prisoners. The ist East Tennesseedid not reach the ground until about half an hour after the fight was over, and sorry enough that they had not been a little sooner ; but they had the longest road to travel. This skirmish was not 'over until after dark. We then went on'into Frank lin, where there was much tribulation among our men who beloneed there; they all believed the place. toy be completely surrounded ; that there was not less than two thousand rebels in any direction a mile out of town ; . but we knew: better ; at least there was none in the direetioit we came. The morning brake cloudy and drizzly, and Colonel Baird,'of the 85th Indiana; commanding, was so tho rotighly.dmpressed with the idea - that the rebels would attack and capture the fortifications daring the morning, that he had piled up a large lot of new Springfield rifiess, ready to burn, and, it was rumored, had prepared a white flag to-use as early as possible to prevent much bleOdsbed. Sure enough, our pick ets on the Columbia pike were attacked and driven in ; the , 6th Kentucky went over the river to rein force them, and the heavy 32-pounders' in the fort began to belch forth at a line of 'rebel skirmishers, about two.and a half miles distant The firing cod: tinned very 'regularly for two hours, when the Colo 'nel of - the' Bth Kentucky sent in word for Heaven's sake to stop that artillery firing,' for there was no enemy near, and two shells, had burst among his men and wounded two of them ! At this juncture ColonelVanderveer, conimanding the 3d brigade of the 3d-division, which had arrived during the night from Triune,. assumed -command of the forces at and about Franklin. He immediately stopped the artillery, firing. I Might make a cod= plimentary notice of the artillerbits working those 32-poundere by: saying that the day previoue they had hit_ a cotton-gin, somewhat larger than a good stied barn, at the ninth shot, distance one mile, but I won't do it,; as it might lead the to look for a "promotien. -Colonel Vamderveer immediately took the let East Tennessee Cavalry and 9th 0010 In fantry, and started eolith On the Columbia pike, to see what the prospect was for abattle..

KESEL RIOVEXENPS. • There is no doubt but that the rebels are massing' a heavy, force on our right, all along from Shelby ville to ,Chapel Hill and Columbia, but whether with a view;o strike a blow, or to, send reinforcements to Johnston, is uncertain. Their boldness along our lines May either tie a feeler or a feint to conceal.their movements. But our cavalry, which is at last be ginning to be of some 'service, is, not idle; on the contrary', it is everywhere, and becoming more effec tive ev,ery day, while, the rebel cavalry is, on the contrary, getting to be less effective all the time. • SNARPILISH, AT COLLEGE, GROVE.

Position of the National and Rebel Forcer— The Weatern Campaign. The able correspondence of Mr. Swinton, in the Times : furnishes the following: The rebel army in Tennessee, commanded by Gen. Bragg, holds now, in the main, the same position it has held since the battle of Stone river, at the open ing of the present year. This is, in the rough, the line of the Duck river, one of the affluents of the Tennessee, which, rising in the vicinity of Shelby ville, and running. in a direction west .by north, thirty miles south of this place, empties into the Tennessee about a hundred miles due west of Mur freesboro. ' The position occupied by the rebel army may be roughly outlined by the triangle formed by the points 11 , TclUirmville, Tullahoma, and Columbia, with detachments in the surrounding vicinity. Very lately, however, this line has been consider ably-contracted, and the rebel force - massed in the vicinity of Shelbyville, where General Bragg has his headquarters. The detachments have been drawn in from Guy's Gap, Eagleville, Tullahoma, and-. Middleton, and concentrated on Shelbyville, and thence west, their left resting on Duck river at Columbia. All the , information accessible to others than the commanding general states the force of Bragg's army very variously—from twenty-live to a hundred thousand men. But a number of trust worthy witnesses, who have lately come in - from the headquarters of the rebel - army, all concur in saying that that army is very strong, and that it is concentrating at Shelbyville. Fifty thousand men would probably be not far from the correct figure. Another point on which the best evidence agrees is, that no great material diminution of Bragg's force has taken place. It is true that Breckinridge's division, with the exception of the Louisiana and Tennessee brigades, has been sent to Mississippi; but this was done rather with a view of putting a stop to the bitter feud that had broken out between Breckinridge and Bragg, than with a .view to strengthen the force opposed to Grant. Other iso lated brigades :have gone, also, but no entire divi sions, and the reports to that effect are wholly incor rect. The rebel lines of communication and supply have been fry the Nashville and = Chattanooga, the Western and Atlantic, and the Memphis and Charles ton, railroads, with their branches, drawing their supplies from the rich regions of Southwestern Ten nessee, Alabama, and Georgia. ' We have the usual reports of the continual star vation of the rebel troops here as in Virginia, and the customary grumbling% of deserters ; but it is a kind of , starvation which, after an endurance of mop - lithe, leaves men muscular, lithe, purged. of all superfluous fats,• and in fine fighting and marching trim. Sensible men have long ago ceased to count on any such auxiliaries. Our own force, ever since the battle of Stone river, bas been well massed around Murfreesboro. and thence extending-up along the railroad lines to Nashvilie and Louisville, with detachments east and west. The lines have been admirably.fortified, and the 'position here has been- strengthened by a series, of works whose only fault, if a non-engineer may be allowed an opinion, is, perhaps, that -they are too extended. CHATTANOOGA What is Shelbyville? What Tullahoma? What the line of the Duck river I Nothing; absolutely nothing! They are neither points of manceuvre nor geographical objective points. The rebel army is not brought a step nearer destruction than it was before. They retire to a new and stronger-line along the Tennessee river, in the vicinity of Chat tanooga, and we have the barren victory of thirty additional miles added to our already too deep line. If anything, we are worse off than we were before. Chattanooga is a real geographical objective point, and one so desirable for us`to 'gain, that if it were gained, the rebellion would already be half over. But it is a strong position, and would be strongly held by• the rebels, who are, under the hypothesis, now supposed to have" fallen back to that line. They would be hearer their centre of reinforcements at Richmond, whence they could draw, if they have not already done so, while, if joined by the twelve or fifteen thousand men under Buckner, in East Tennessee, they might not only repel all attacks which this army alone can make against them, but they might even venture to assume that offensive campaign foreshadowed in a subsequent section of this letter. It is enough to say that pursuit by this army:, weakened as it would be by battle, and with the-rivers-those great arteries of communication— in their present condition, would be simply out of the question. It Is questionable whether we would not, on the contrary,-be obliged to return to our present line, or even to: our eventual base at Man ville. CONCENTRATION We are led to the - conclusion that the end of a campaign, such as has been described,' would leave us, just where we are now—minus the material losses in battle and the moral loss that must attend an -unsuccessful operation. We should, therefore, have to begin over again, on correct principles, just as we may 91.021 , begin on correct principles. And this involves as its prime condition the abandonment of the system of half a dozen dif ferent lines of operation, under half a dozen different commanders, without concert or co-operation—a system under which, unless the great maxims of war which the experience of mankind for thousands of years has verified shall prove utterly fallacious, we must always fail. The great central zone lying between the Alleghe nies and the Mississippi is fitted by its conformatipp for two great lines of operation under two com , menders ; but for no more. If this were adopted, our scattering forces drawn in, and two great armies formed, the one under Gen. Rosecrans, the other under Gen. Grant, three months" vigorous work should crush out every ves tige of organized rebel force in the great central Whif is the use. 4:4 4hat arm of Burnside's in Kentucky, thinly spread out over a surface of hun dreds offline% 7 What is the use of those patches of troops lying rusting- on , every sand spit from Port B oyal to Fernandina l It la the old Austrian system—eoveringevery point to guard every point. The Austrians, forgetting that the surest'hope of victory lies in presenting the strongest force, thought it necessary to occupy the whole length of a frontier to prevent invasion; which was exactly the means of rendering invasion upon every point feasible. - In everviense, military prudence dictates. simply the preservation of a masterly inactivity here until the development of the operations at Vicksburg. And this for two reasons : First, because, in ease of a defeat there, it is of the utmost importance that we should have at least one great army intact, and this is the only one on which we can rely; secondly, be cause, if the issue at. Vicksburg shall be favorable, we will then be in position to enter upon a really, de cisive campaign in the centre gine. GEN. ROSEOIANS With judicious management, the prospects of the campaign in the West are not only , good—they are even brilliant. - It is,_therefore, all the more ne cessary, that no precipitancy, no popular clamor, and no official pressure should compromise the situa tion. The main thing, for the present, is that the com manding general should be unembarrassed. Gen. Rosecrans is quite as eager to achieve a victory as the country is to have him achieVe it. He has here a noble army, not as; large, indeed, as it should be, but fraught with all soldierly and patriotic fire, far betterin its discipline and fighting qualities, ihan when six months ago it gained .a victory here, and confiding with the fullest faitliin the leadership of Gen. Roseerans. The'country can: well afford, also, to trust implicitly in his soldierly skill t and pure and loftfy . patriotism. The Late Cavalry Battle.

THE REBEL ARMY, From lila of Richmond Mere of the 11th and 12th inst. we have the following THE CULPEPER BATTLE. CULPEPER, June 9.—The enemy crossed the Rap pabannock this morning at 6 o'clock A. M., at the various fords from Beverly to Kelly's, with a large force of cavalry, accompanied by infantry and ar tillery. After a severe contest till P. M., Gen. Stuart drove them across the river. B. „E. LEE. From private sources, we learn that Brig. Col. F. Lee (son of Gen. Lee) was severely wounded in the fleshy part of the thigh ; Captain Farley, of Gen. Stuart's staff, killed, and Col. Williams, of the 2d North Carolina regiment, was also killed ; also Col. Hampton, brother of General Wade Ilampton, whose body was brought to the city yesterday eve ning and escorted to the Capitol by the City Guard. Col. Butler, of South Carolina, had his leg shot off. Capt. Jones, of Gen. Fitz Lee's cavalry, was killed. We lost a number of prisoners, taken by the Fede rale. The prisoners were dismounted cavalry.- The battle is said to have been one of the most se verely contested during the war, as we fought in fantry and artillery all day with cavalry, and a few pieces of artillery. Our cavalry made some twenty different charges. We took a large number of pri soners, three hundred and thirty:six of whom have already arrived, including two majors. Thirty pri soners also arrived last evening from. Winchester. These were captured by the forces of General Albert G..Tenkins. The Enquirer speaks of Captain Farley, killed in the battle, as a scholar and a poet. .Col. Ifampton was killed at Stevensburg, five miles from Culpeper. The Dispatch says : "The whole number of wound ed in the engagement, it is believed, will amount to from 160 to 200. The number of killed, it is thought, - will not exceed 60. The number of officers slain is greatly out of proportion to the number of men, Which is accounted for by their exposing themselves in eflbrts to rally their commands after the first on set of the enemy. Our whole loss, including pri soners, is put down at between 300 and 400. A passenger who came down on the train says that we had five colonels killed, but . could not recollect any names in addition to those given by us yester day morning. Among the wounded was Colonel A. W. Barman, of the 12th Virginia Cavalry, who was shot m in the neck." . - FRIMERICKSIMP.O, June 10.—The enemy still holds' his entrenched position, on this side, being fortified by lines running parallel with the river and Deep Run, Deep Run being a small stream, run ning at right angles with the town, about one and a half miles below. About thirty-two car loads of troops arrived in front yesterday. The enemy have twelve pieces of artillery on this side of the river. Another paper contains the following :* Our . losses at *Culpeper, on Tuesday, are heavy, and among them some of our best officers. Our casualties are fifty killed, two hundred wounded,land five.hundred prisoners. Among the killed is Gene ral Wright. Colonel Butler, of South Carolina, had his leg shot off. - FREDERICRSRITRG, June 12.—The enemy have now held their position on this side the river one week, and nothing has been done in the way of fighting, if we except one or two artillery duels and the daily picket firing. lIA3IILTON'S CROSSING, June 11.—The situation is unchanged. No firing since yesterday morning, then only by pickets. No rumors even afloat. A fight, I think, is not expected here. Cars, loaded with troops, have been seen going towards Acquia creek. Not more than 10,000 Yankees are believed to be hereabouts. All this may be a mistake, and I have no facts to. Bend you. Deserters state thati the troops now here are from Suffolk, and General Dix is in command. YANKEE CAVALRY RAIDS. The following, from the Dispatch, is a piece of in nocent rapture: If the excitement created by Stoneman's Wand Straight's marauding and plundering raids should have the effect of inducing our people everywhere to organize in such a manner as to provide against the renewed attempts of the same kind, which can not fail to be made by our- enemies, no victory that we have yet achieved could prove of more essential service to the Confederacy. But in order to stimu late the efforts now being made in that direction, our Government should lose no time in proclaiming its intentions as regards the participants in such raids, whenever caught by our troops or the volunteer or ganizations now springing up everywhere for home 'defence. Nothing can be clearer than that these out laws in uniform should not be dealt with as soldiers or belligerents.- To treat them, when captured, as ordinary prisoners, would be but to invite a repeti tion of similar outrages. As robbers, incendiaries, and murderers, they come into- our country, and as such they must be shot down, strung up, or set to Work in our penitentiaries, like other thieves and assassins. If we fail to - -do so, we shall incur the contempt and ridicule of the whole world. THE PENINSULA. WAsnrnerros, June 15.—The Richmond Sentinel, of Saturday, says There is not a word of news from the Southwest. - - - - - - There was considerable excitement over the news yesterday, that the enemy were exhibiting.conside rable force on the Peninsula and advancing in a threatening manner.. We learn that a—column of .3,000 or 4,000 were camped at Earhamsville, New Kent county, on Thursday night. Their gunboats are also reported in the James ana Ohickahomitty. Our troops on the Peninsula are said to have fallen back to avoid being taken in the flank from the navi gable waters TEXAS By a 'general order at Brownsville, Texas, April 23d, Major General Magruder has revoked all the orders restricting exportation of cotton of whatever nature. The five dollars exchange is also abolished. Trade with Mexico is left perfectly, free. 'This, it is understood, has been done under orders from Richmond. ` INDIANA; Gotreotor Morton's Proilanuition,The lie- sistance to the Enrolment, Governor Morton has issued a proclamation of solemn warning to those who counsel or engage in resistance to the Government. The prOchunation is. impartial and patriotic, and its statement of the law is exact and unmistakable. Following this, the Go vernor says : _ It is within my knowledge that public speako and editors have presented to their hearers and readers every statement, argument, and motive that could excite them to hatred of the Government and resistance to the laws, but for their own protection, have -interlarded their discourses with set phrases that there must be no violence, or resistance to the laws. Such men are cowardly and treacherous, as they exhort others to do what they are unwilling to do themselves, and seek to put their advice in a form for which they will not be held responsible. The subterfuge will not avail against the provisions of the section I am considering. - All who obey the laws, keep the peace, and dis charge their duties as citizens, are alike entitled to and will receive protection in person and property: The alarm which some are attempting to create of the improper interference of the military authorities, may be dismissed as without foundation. To advocate the right of secession and rebellion, or the dissolution of our Government, might be harmless enough in time of profound peace, but when the country is engaged in a desperate civil war, which is consuming , the best blood and trea sure of the nation, and the misfortnne of arms might within a few days bring the enemy upon the soil' of our State, wjll it be contended that the privilege of free speech gives the right to advocate the rebel lion, resistance to our -own Government, or the abandonment of it to its enemies? That which is `idle talk in time of peace may becothe " aid and comfort to the enemy," and punishable , by the laws of the, land when that enemy is at our doors. Let exhort the people to moderation, and sub mission to the laws, and laying aside their resent ments and prejudices, to take counsel only of their duties and the dangers which threaten the nation"; and while I assui e them that protection shall be ex tended to life, liberty, and property, and that equal and exact justice shall be administered to all, I would impress them with the fact, that if needs be, the whole power of the State and Nation will be in voked to, execute the laws, preserve the publie . peace, and bring offenders to punishment THE ENROLMENT RESISTANCE InurCturoms, June 16.- - -The detachment sent to.

The crews of the captured steamers Union and Cuba had arrived, at Havana from Hey West. , There was no appearance of yellow fever yet at Havana, although the heat was excessive. - A Panama letter states that the steamer from Valparaiso has brought over a quarter of a million in treasure from England, Extensive frauds have been discovered in connec tion with the Valparaiso and Santiago railroad. - The question of the ownership of the guano islands is likely to lead to a war between Bolivia and Chili. Several Spanish war ships have arrived at Valpa raiso. Business was dull there. The captain of the American ship George Green, at Callao, reports he saw a ship on, fire off Cape Horn. He was prepared to run down to her assist ance, when he discovered a steamer with a rebel rag flying, bearing down forthe George Green. Another large American ship appeared, when the steamer made for her, and the George Green escaped. It is thought the steamer WaS the British steamer Fusi Tama, bound 'for San Francisco, which was in that neighborhood it that time. New Jersey. To the Editor of The Press: Sin: The slanders upon New Jersey have been Many and various ; but had it been your privilege to have seen the entertainment, given at this little town of Beverly, to the 23d New Jersey Volunteers, on Saturday last, you would have been convinced that New Jersey was not, only able but willing to, show her appreciation of the services of her brave EOM in the cause of, onr,country. The 23d arrived on Friday, direct from the front, and their sun-burnt facei, rustY' clothes, and thinned ranks, bore evidence Of their.valor and patriotism. At 2 o'clock, P. M., after a few preliminary remarks, the men sat down to one of the most handsomely provided tables that we have ever. seen. They had an abundance of everything, and you'might have supposed that all Jersey had contributed strawberries, from, the Quan-_. tity, upon the table. You may rest assured, the :boys enjoyed it; none of them- had tasted any thing so palatable since they left- hoine, some nine months ago. The affair was gotten up 13Y the vari ' ous' Union Leagfies of :Burlington 'county, arnong -which those of Beverly, 'and:Burlington were con spicuOus. After - the dinner, we had some able and patriotic remarks from Senator Ten Eyck, Hon. J, L. Stratton, General Talbot, and several ‘ other.a; -which remarks were received' with rapturoue ap :plause, and replied to by Colonel Grubb,-of th'e 23d, in a few neat remarks.

Friedrich Kapp, the wenknown Gerraart-Am'eri , can litttrateur, biographer of General Baron Derail,, takes the case of D'Utassy as a text for ihe ing, written to the Tritotene: The Germans havenever recommended Weeny, nor claimed him as one of their nationality. He always, in the days of his glory, was by his American friends considered in the higher character of a Hungarian nobleman, and we don't want to have him put on our account after he has been shown up settle Hun. prima Jew Wurstel (in English, "Little Sausage"}.. alias Strasser, alias Utasay. The Germans of this city, as early as the summer of 1861, formed a committee of eight, of which I had the honor to be one, for the purpose of e,xamining the past career and present claims of German of& cers, of recommending the able and competent ones, and of sifting,, all- counterfeit counts, barons, and generals, who at once presented themselves to. serve in the United States' Volunteer Army. The Union Defence Committee was very well aware of our ex istence, as well as the Secretary of War and the. Commander-in-chief, to all of whom we applied several times, without being favored with an answer to our letters. The only high functionary who availed'himself of our services wag Governor Mor gan, and through our instrumentality, I flatter my self, the United States got some very superior offi cers and colonels, and were saved from many bad and Suspicious characters. The Republican party came into power by the labors of the purest and beat of the German citizens of the country. When the distribution of military commissions began, these men were well known to the high functionaries whom they had just elevated into position. }lad the applications for commissions been referred ,to them, proper advice would have been given, and the disgrace, of having a colonelcy conferred by Mr. Cameron on-a - keeper of n house of illdame, and other notoriously bad characters, would have been averted. But the parties who might have been consulted were the lions to be avoided. When, ten years ago, Sigel first came to this coun try, instead of turning private secretary to the Go vernor of Nova Scotia, or courting an heiress; he opened a little cigar store in Walker street. I took occasion to speak of his antecedents, to some of the opulent tobacco consumers of the metropolis. The answer to such appeals was : "If he were such a military- genius as your represent him, be would think too much of himself-to start a cigar shop." The haid gold of an unblemished reputation appeared to be tbe only talisman capable of overcoming the national prejudices of our lords of life. Perhaps I am wrong, in ascribing the circumstance to any national prejudice. Similar predictions have not been entirely lost sight of, as recent developments make manifest in discriminating among candidates of native birth. . As for my own part, I have informed influential friends, wherever-I was sure of not having my mo tives suspected, of the character of several foreign officers; and Sir. Frederick Law Olmstead will bear me witness that, in October, 1861, I gave hrm all the particulars about Strasser's former history. But I remember very well that, in the summer of 1861, when I told one of the most promihent and Patriotic New York merchants what I knew about Strasser, he insinuated a doubt of my disinterestedness, and of the purity of my motives. There are, to be sure, in the service of this country German gentlemen whose titles of nobility are un disputed, and whose services and-conduct are in keeping with their antecedents. It would, indeed, be unfair , to men like Kilmansegge, Radowitz, Schack, Schimmelfenning; and others of their class, able, modest, retiring gentlemen all, were they to be affected by the sneerjustlydirected at the D'Utassy chevaliers. Tne Canadian Elopement. In 1861 the 30th British Infantry Caine out to To ronto, and with it came a gay officer named Captain Nathaniel W. Massey, a relative of wealthy and aris tocratic celebrities in. England, and Ireland. The arrival of the military created quite aflutter among *the ladies of Toronto, and while the soldiers were doomed to associate with kitchen girls and-uptown cooks, the officers were courted by the beauty and fashion of aristocratic circles. Cards were issued and a gay time the officers had in making morning calla and attending evening parties at the mansions of the wealthy Toronton tans. Captain Massey was one of the most fairared offi cers, and, as. a matter of course, was a universal favorite among all classes in which he associated. But it got rumored about that he had left a beauti ful and 'wealthy wife in England, and brought out with him a pretty, yet dissipated daughter of a country rector. This was too much for-the moral ideas of Canadian mammas, and Captain:Massey was dropped from their list of acquaintances. The Captain's ire knew no bounds; he complained to his brother officers, and the consequence was, that they refused to attend parties Unless their friend. the Captain, was permitted to go with them into:society. The fawning „ plovers 27 of Toronto society were compelled to succumb, and the Captain took his old place in aristocratic circles, although his laiton with the pretty English woman; with whom he attended the theatre and opera, was well known. During the Captain's residence in Toronto he visited England three . times, taking with him the Englishwoman on one occasion. Some weeks ago he visited New York, and returned in company with a -Miss McTavish, niece of- a Toronto banker, and her aunt. This Miss McTavish, who is a daughter of the celebrated Hudson Bak McTavish, who com mitted suicide in Montreal some fifteen years ago, and obtained quite a celebrity as the owner of the "Haunted House," situated on the mountain, near Montreal, had an income of fifteen thousand pounds per year, and moved in' the best circles in Toronto, where she frequently met Capt. Massey. Previous to the Captain's visit to New York he stook -the En glish girl to Halifax, and sent her to Europe.' and so ciety in consequence began to forget his follies and gave him a cordial mire at all their reunions. A few evenings ago Miss McTavish attended an evening party at the residence of a Canadian member - of Par liament, and was suddenly missed. She was not found that night, but in the morning it was discovered that the Captain his commission and wail non est. The uncle of the lady made diligent inquiries and learned that Miss McTavish had -left for. Niagara Falls. A cousin bf the lady immediately started in pursuit, and at the Falls learned that the fugitives had gone to. New-:York: -He followed them there, and, after searching the hotels; found that they had occupied a room under the name of "Mr. and Mrs. Morse." and had left for.parta unknown. _Hi traced them to Washington, but only to find that they had just one day's start of him. .After.searching several cities he traced them to thia city, where they arrived two days ago. He arrived here and found that, to avoid suspicion, they had left the Tremont. House and gone to Hide Park, where they remained one day. On going there and examining the register the city. that the loving pair had returned to the city. Back he came, mad with rage, and on Wed nesday evening was riding out 'State street in a oar when he met the fugitives driving past in a carriage. He sprung from the car in an instant; but as no hacks could be had he was forced to follow them on foot. Arriving at the court house, instead of proceeding to his hotel, he took a carriage, drove to the Chicago and Milwaukee depot, but found them not. Re tracing his steps, he drove rapidly to the Cincinnati _Air•Line Depot, and was again foiled, when he saw the train moving from the station, and learned that they had left for Cincinnati as fast as steam could waft them on in their guilty flight. The unlucky cousin met an old acquaintance in this city, to whom he gave the particulars, and swore by the God above that he would shoot the Captain if he had to follow him to the dominions of Lucifer to do it, and he will no - doubt keep his word, as it is well known t in To ronto that this cousin was betrothed in marriage to the infatuated young lady, who has thus brought disgrace upon herself and a' numerous circle - of esteemed relatives. As Miss 'McTavish is a ward in chancery, it will not be safe for the Captain to show himself i n British territory again, as the. British. law provides a heavy penalty for running away with a ward in chancery.—Chicago Post, June to. - The redoubtable hero of the Thirtieth British in fantry—the idol of, the upper crust of TOronto—the noted Captain Nathaniel W. Massey, who fled Trout Congress Hall in this city, on Tuesday, afternoon to avoid arrest, was captured last night at-Avon, put in irons and lodged in jail at Geneseo, where he now lies awaiting the further action of the courts. When the prisoner was thus removed Miss Mont vish wept bitterly, and this was the first time since she left 'Toronto that • she 'realized her unfortunate predicament. She took a carriage and followed her Captain to Geneaeo, and took , lodgings at a '.llbtel. Rochesier Union, Jane Nieroslawski. The Italie publishes ,a letter from an, officer of Jezioranski's staff, giving the - following'iceonat of the manner• in which Illieroslawski was dismissed by his 'companions in arms : The - success o f Jezioranski's corps is owing to its: excellent organi zation, which is quite exemplary; bfit the same cannot-be said of the conduct , of Mieroslawski, who'has caused the destruction of a small band of Frenchmen r - by - sending them across ,the . frontier and abandoning them when attacked. , The loss of these ninety men has .been severely felt. by us, for they were Frenchmen, awl we had hoped that on discovering the Incapacity of their chief they would join ,us. They dead. And even, supposing be had-not 'abandoned, these soldiers in the - hour of danger, what can I say of this man, when in my own hearing, he replied to the general's proposal to combine his movements with ours for the goodof the cause " "Be it so; but do you recognize me as dicta. tor I" We, all , started up, except, thegeneral, who remained calm. "ant you are aware that the Go vernment will have no dictator." - "The 'Geyer*. ment," exclaimed Mieroslawski, in estate of the ut most excitement, "I- do not recognize the Gevern. "ment. Poland wants an. energetic man to hold all the civil'and military authority, and .direat the whole,. with a powerful hand." "No. doubt," replied „Tezioranskl, "but - where is that' Man 1" "1 am _he." - Alf the -.staff immediately , burst Out latighing. ."Poland," he continued, rolling Ms eyes, - and,, speaking louder and :louder, hate fixed on: 'me ; I will not forsake her.

The Three Captains. Among the first who rushed to arms when Sump. ter fell were three' sworn friends, named Addison Dougherty, Leopold C. Newman, and Robert:R. Daniell. They were quite young and were all Teem bera,of the,New York , bar. Their ardor and united action resulted in the formation of the 3litßegi meat of the New York State Volunteers, Col. Pratt, whieh Was early in the field. Virginia, then as now, the-scene of conflict, shook with .the...treid of the legions they led to battle, and twenty-one bloody actions attest the glory and melancholy of their ca reer. Daugherty, the major, called 'byprivate af fairs to Central America, resigned, and returned last year to his home with a fever and died,_ lamented by nnmerous friends. Daniell, becoming 'Major, met his death at Malvern Bilis ; and Newman, the sub ject of this sketch, alone remained of the heroic trio.
