The Sixth Corps -Withdrawn from. the South
Side
,of the Rappahannock,
FALMO - lITH EVACIIATED
LEE'S ARMY ACROSS THE RIVER,
OUR FORCES MASSING AT WARRENTON.
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

[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

,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. Much as
they love England, fearful that the world may be
hold their shame and humiliation, they love their
national dignity more, and in bitterness of spirit
they- declare " never to thrust their acquaintance
::again upon those who refuse to know them."
"What enrages the Enquirer more than all is that
Mr. Benjamin should seek to dismiss Mr. Moore for
" special and personal reasons " about a man named
Maloney, -when he should have told the truth—;
how the " consul refused to show his credentials to
the Government of the country wherein he re.

[Special Correspondence of The Press.]
Tiffuriz, Tenn., June 7,1863.
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

"astoni arg, : the Michigan boys did not
let theut4 e ,. I idle long; theylitched right
into thL; and our forces which were ahead turned
back, and for a little while there was a sharp
light—part of it hand-to-hand"; but the rebels
could not stand such close - quarters, and beat
.a hasty retreat, leaying • twenty-two dead ,on the
field, seventeen wounded, and thirteen taken priso
ners. 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

to see what the prospect was for abattle.. Three

them too far, for the rebels were reinforced and
turned on our men, who got away a ' little
more lively than there wax any real necessity for';
and it was while in the rear, vainly endeavoring to
rally Jhe men and get them to make a stand, that
Colonel. Faulkner received a very severe wound,
and had it not been for l'lr. Seward; a correspondent

fairly disgusted with the way things were conducted
'at, Franklin, and fully convinced if ever, any place
was well fixed to be "gobbled up" :Franklin- was;
and yet the fort there, manned by one good regiment,
could hold it against live thousand cavalry. One
liiindred and ninety shots were fired on Thursday
from the 32. pounders, besides the firing on Friday
morning, and nobody hurt by it. They get up big
battles_ every few days at Franklin, but they don't
amount to anyth Gen. Roseanne has got tired
of their 'alarming the country, and sent a despatch
there today to have' no -More ammunition wasted.

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. •

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

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 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

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 '

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. Altogether,the, affair, was a
"complete success, and passed off very plear,nntly.

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

Jezioranski's staff, giving the - following'iceonat of
the manner• in which Illieroslawski was dismissed

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.
The ominous rank of,major was safely passed, and
he became lieutenant colonel of the regiment._He
had now fought, seventeen; engagementswitout
receiving a scratch, and naturally enough thought
he bore a charmed life.
Imagine a finely,foimed, noble-looking young fel
low, flushed with', the consciousness of the - deeds
that try men's souls, and full of hope for the future.
The time of the regiment had ten days to expire
when he came on to Yew York to see his old father.
Scircely had he reached home when a peremptory
order from the 'War Department recalled him to the
field. "I'll be home in a week; fatherpiadd he,
and flew to arms. At the storming of •Fredericks
