PROBABLE STAND NEAR THE'
RAPIDAN.
REPORTS OF REFUGEES AND PRISONERS
Washington, July 28. “ According to informa
tion received lo*day, the report ia now fully con
firmed that the three corps of Lee’s army passed
through. Chester Gap on Thursday and Friday, and
are now at and south of Culpeper, Their passage
was opposed by General Buford’s cavalry, but lie
was compelled to fall back. He, however, being
upon their rear, captured many prisoners and'the
herds heretofore mentioned,
Longetreet’g corps paßßed through Culpeper on
Friday and camped that night south of the town.
'All,the available rolling stock of the Virginiaratl
roa ds was con centrated at Culpeper, and it was gene
rally supposed that Bee was making all speed for
Bichmond. But Gen. BufoTd thinks the rebels in
tend to make a Rtand on the south Bide of. the Ra
pid an.
Ewell’s wagon trains, with a strong guard, went
south from Strasburg, by way of Staunton, to avoid
capture by our cavalry, which has, during the entire
late campaign, signalized itself by a degree of energy
and daring never before surpassed. Rebel prisoners
of intelligence unite in saying that our cavalry has
done more to defeat Bee’s plans than any.other arm
of the service. Stuart’s legion now fear to encoun
ter it, or, at all events, do not court an encounter.
Prisoners and refugees are unanimous in the
statement that the morale of the rebel' army in Vir
ginia is broken, and that great despondency prevails
in all Southern circles, particularly in the army.
Their defeats in the Southwest, at Gettysburg, and
Morris Island, have at last convinced the rebel sol
diery of their vulnerability. Further, that Bee’s
plans, supported by the flower of the Southern
troops; having proved failures by the energy of Ge
neral Meade and the bravery and endurance of the
Army of the Potomao, will necessitate a reconstruct
tion of the rebel army of Virginia, while the defec
tion of Joe Johnston, and his refusal to obey Davis’
orders, will compel a reconstruction of tne rebel
army of the Southwest.
Intelligent rebel officers now in our hands admit
that this is the most gloomy period for the hopes of
the Confederacy,
Guerillas under Mosby, "White, and infest
our rear, and pick up or kill all who straggle behind.
An outrage occurred yesterday has aroused
feelings of retaliation in the army. :A lieutenant of
the 2d Pennsylvania Cavalry, Alfred Byles, went
from Warrenton, two miles out on the Salem road, to
dine 'with a lady acquaintance from that State.
While making his toilet the house was entered by
five or six guerillas who demanded his surrender.
He refused, and for this waß immediately shot twice
through the head, killing him instantly. Threats
are freely, made that on the repetition of such an
outrage all the stock, produce, &c., in the vicinity
shall be confiscated or burned, and the perpetrators,
if caught, banged on the nearest tree.
. CAVALRY RECONNAISSANCES.
[Correspondence of the Times.]
Headquarters Cavalry Division,
Ahissyille, Va., Saturday, July 25.
Gen. Carter, with three regiments of the Michi
gan brigade, under command of Col. Gray, (Col.
Town, the senior officer, being sick,) advanced from
this place to Newby’s Cross Roads, to reconnoitre
the enemy’s position. The Fifth Michigan were in
advance. The enemy’s pickets -were met ; within
half a mile of the Cross Roads, when the advance
and one section if battery .under UeutJ
01&ik, waa placed in position on a epestat the left of
the road, supported by the Ist Michigan, Major
Brewer. For half an hour o.r more a lively skirmish
was kept up, when the advance skirmishers were re
inforced by three squadrons from the 6th Michigan,
and also'the balance of these regiments acting as a
reserve. The men thus thrown forward steadily
drove the enemy before them, until the crest .of a
hill was reached near.the" cross-roads, when' the ene
my opened a brisk fire with artillery; firing shells,
grape, and canister, and our advance was checked.
The position was held for at least an hour, when,
much -to the astonishment of all, a regiment of the
enemy’s infantry appeared in the rearof the Ist
Michigan, while supporting the artillery above re
ferred to. The whole section of country in this
vicinity is so cut up, that it is almost impossible
for cavalry to operate effectively, and particularly
difficult at the point where the .enemy first made
their appearance in our rear, as it was covered not
.only with trees up to within twenty rods of the re
giment, but the intervening space is covered with
an undergrowth of pine trees .and stubble.' -
Gen. Custer, when made awareof this flank move
ment, at once ordered a charge to be made—practi
cable under ordinary circumstances, but just at this
point an impracticability; which he very speedily
discovered. Major Brewer fortunately hesitated
when ordered'to charge, and the result was a
of orders. -The section of artillery exposed;" rapidly,
moved -to the right, while’ the'lst Michigan remained
in position until .the. enemy fired one volley,
then wheeling to the right into the road, a rapid re
trograde movement brought them to the rear, and
in a place of comparative safety.. "
While this movement was being executed-on the
left of the road, the enemy advanced two pieces to
the crest of a hill in front previously occupied by our
skirmishers; and opened a galling- fire upon, our
troops with grape and canister, at the Bame time ad
vancing a column of infantry in the same direction.
A portion of our right was forced still further to the
right, and the leftwas forced back into the: road

did not forget to extend protection to the &r UUery,
then within the enemy’s grasp, and it was conse
quently saved.
The enemy after this were held in check, at every
point, while the command, having felt the position,
fell back to AmißßVille. From information obtained
from leliable sources, it was ascertained that the
column struck the rear of A. P. Hill’s command.
.. The advance of Longstreet’a corps passed through
Thornton’s Gap and Sperryville on Thursday, and
Friday morning at-6 o’clock it readied Culpeper.
Hill’s command waß immediately in hiß rear..
To-day the . cavalry moved up to Gaines’Gross
Roade, where the enemy’s pickets were encountered
and driven in, but the main command was beyond
reach. As Gen. Ouster’s orders were solely toas
certain the position of the enemy, in obedience to
orders he fell back to Amiesville.
Our loss during the two days* reconnoissance will
probably not exceed six killed and thirty wounded.
Lieutenant Sabin, of General Custer’s staff, was
severely wounded in the side by a-shell, and waß left
on the field. The enemy Baw fit neither to parole
nor take him away, and this morning he was brought
in.' -•/. .
During the most exciting time of yesterday a horse
in front of Colonel Gray was killed. Colonel Gray’s
horse fell over the disabled animal, and before the
Colonel could regain his feet he was run over by a
whole squadron of led horses belonging to the skir
mishers. His escape from fatalinjury iB attributed
to the fact that many of the horseß were barefooted.
.GENERAL LEE’S PLANS.—An ex-officer of
the Army of the Potomac , writes to the World in
speculation of General Lee’s present designs:
By this time it is plain to us that he is in no hurry
to get round to his old line of defence. If he was, he
could have been out of the Shenandoah valley some
days ago. Now, what does he mean to do! Does it
occur to us that he may mean to recroßs the Potomac
in case he can throw our army off and send it in full
trot toward the rebel capital, with the view of cut
ting off hiß line of retreat! I may. add; that it is
possible he is directed by Daviß to Btay as long as he
can in the valley, in order to menace Maryland, and
produce a good moral effect on their cause. Their
reverses have of late been so greafcj thatj unless
Their loiees, all will be tip with. Them. Besides,-If
Lee Mb back to bin old lines, Britain wilUtob abort
in her step to recognize the South. It is in view of
this that the great heads of the rebellion wish to
hold their,darling anny in of offence,
and direct its chief to outwit the Union general, and
save the cause of his failing country. A force may
be sent Lee from the Southwest, though it can ill be
spared there, to enable him to strike at the heart of
our country, and, with thiß last effort, “do or die.”
It will be well for our generals to keep this possible
move in view, and to be ready to meet it. They
have a most wary general to cope with, as they, by
this time, well know, and the only way to meet his
moves is to keep them well in view, not to let him,
by the covered natureof ground, or by means of his
dashing cavalry, mask his strategy.
THE WAR IN THE SOUTHWEST.
Evacuation of Jackson, Miss.
[Correspondence Cincinnati Gazette. ]
Gaiko, July 25.— We received last evening’ infor
mal ion of very interesting nature from our reporter,
jußt arrived from Jackson, who witnessed the evacu
ation of that place*; From him we learn that on
Thursday, the 16th inst., Gen. Parke made an ad
vance upon the enemy’s works. After proceeding
some four hundred yards he was opposed by a South
CaTolinalegion or regiment. These men had never
been under fire. After an engagement of three
quarters of an hour they ran, having lost about
three hundred men killed. After. night set
;in - the rebels had a band of music on their
works which, played Dixie, and other tunes,
IUDDOiii to dsbuUmljt offfliutvfl to tha
myrnisrii Trnon mo oay Drone it was rnimn
the rebel piefcets Jinq been mtiiarawni Many
ef the soldiers crept up to the work* and ascertained
that, during ihe night, Johnston and his troops had
evacuated the place. Soon other soldiers hurried
in, and a scene of plunder and destruction took
place. It was brought to an end by General Blair’s
division entering the tbwn and restoring order. 0h
inquiry, it appeared that the evacuation began at 6
o’clock on the preceding evening, and was comple
ted before day.
- Fifty or Bixty oars were found at the depot. Night
before last a fire bad raged in the town. It became
evident, on investigation, that the llames were not
the result of our shells, but that ten or.t welve stores,
containing commissary goodß which could not be
carried away, had been set on fire, and a conflagra
tion 4 enßued until five or six houses had been con
sumed. This destruction, added to what occurred
on the previous occupation of the place by the
national troops Borne weeks ago, has left Jackson
but a poor wreck, looking little like the capital of V
great State.
Our informant vißited the late headquarters of
General Johnston, and found them safely placed in
an excavation where no shot could strike or shell
penelrate. Some of the prisoners said the fact was
characteristic of the man; that he has a marvellous
facility for finding out safe spots. After the place
was in General Sherman’s hands hundreds of de
serters from the rebel army began to pour in. ' They
said the struggle was no. longer hopeful, and that
there was no chance of success remaining, and they
were glad to get to our army, and, would fight
against the old flag no longer. On the afternoon of
the day on which the place was occupied, (Friday),
General Sherman sent out the cavalry with orders
to destroy the railroad bridges and culverts, so as to
interrupt communication.^

having got possession of the southern half of Mor

THE STORMraAjoV PORT WAGNER—CHARGE OF
• brigade. •
From correspondence of the Herald, dated Morris
Island, June 22,>we take the. folio wing description!,
Theattack described took place on the 18th:
Strong’s brigade marched in column up past the
old building o.nlftbe right of our batteries;- then
deployed and adduced in line a short distance, then
deployed again, and marched up the beach in close
column, Putnam?o brigade following at supporting
distiance andvhalting at a point where they had
been ordered tojrtop. Fort Sumpter saw the move
ment, and pitched her shells over among the troops:
but.hurt none&of them. When Strong’s troops,
led by their.gallant general, had got two-thirds the
distance to the iprt the cannonading ceased, to avoid
injuring ourfown troops, and then the rebelß in
Fort Wsghei.Msyhe-out in full strength. A thou
sand muskets filmed almost together, and poured
a deadly fire intfifour troops. The guns were brought
to bear on grape and canister hailed down
upon them.AWith'a shout they advanced, at a
word from the General, on a double-quick, unfalter
ingly, fire. Musket™ rat
ted;* Sumpter’s shells burst all around them, bullets
whistled,: canister hummed, grape ploughed along
the ground, the fort was. lighted up almost con
stantly with the fire from howitzerß, rifles, and mus
kets—not in fitful flashes,-'but with steady, gleam
ing sheets of flame. They never staggered—never wa
vered—did not stop for the many who fell, or listen"
to the-moans of the wounded./ They reached the
ditch and crossed it, some on planks, some rushing
down in and toiling up,'some seeking a better en
trance to the left, .where-the ditch was, however,
filled with water. .As they were making the cross
ing, howitzers in the bastions kept up a raking fire,
prostrating many bodies, but not deterring the mass!
Over they went, and clambered up the parapets.

peppered them with birllete, anr] gave no chance to
respond effectually. Some retreated without fur
ther effort, the majority struggled ou manfully, and
charged down over the parapet, driving all
before them. There was certain danger now
in retreating; uncertain danger in staying
or advancing. The rebels were driven from
one corner over a traverse, and the 6th Con
necticut colore planted on the parapet. But
from the opposite Bides of the fort, from behind
parapets, and traverses, and bastions, the fire was
kept-up. Two guns commanded our position with
their volleys of grape. All attempts to reach them
commenced with slaughter and ended with retreat
The filth Massachusetts (colored) found a place
lower down, and charged bravely over the parapet,
their officers urging them to distinguish themselves.
But the rebels made a dash at them with all
their bitter feelingsiagainst negro troops aroused,
and neglected all. else for a moment in attacking
the negroes. They took some prisoners, - slaugh
tered many; bayoDets clashed and mußkets rattled,
and the Massachusetts blacks got bewildered. They
barely saved one of their flags, and the Btaffof anoth
er,'and|then, with thinned ranks, retreated through
the showers of .iron hail, leaving their colonel in the
fort,- many officers unaccounted for, and many black
bodies, lifeless or disabled, along their track. All
the other regiments got, wholly or in part, on or
over the parapets, but all were finally forced to flee.
The contest on their part was a short but bloody
one. Had these regiments held on together but a mo
ment longer, they would have had a whole brigade to
help them, but the difficulties were greater than had
been anticipated, and they could not be longer held
where victory seemed so impossible. With one or
two regiments it was a rout; they went off helter-
Bkelter, running wildly, anxious only for some shel
ter from the rebel fire. Others marched off as or
. deriy as if executing a simple manoeuvre, carrying
their arms and taking such pf their wounded
as were outßide the ditch:
ADVANCE OF PUTNAM’S BRIGADE.
The brigade of Col. II. 1 S. Putnam, with his 7th
New Hampshire Regiment on the right, when the
advance waß ordered, moted to the rear of the old
house behind our batteri«B, and deployed into line.

works. Col. Putnam wasone of the first to reach
the parapet, surrounded bK his . brave New Hamp
shire 7th boyß, and inspiring- his whole brigade hy
ing fearless, gallant conduct. In approaching the
ditch, the retreating m4n of the first charge
were met, and some portions- of the brigade -
were detained for! a moment, but not perma
nently demoralized. Gel. Putnam sent .Lieut. Col.
Abbott, of the 7th, and Major Henderson, his
adjutant general, to intercept stragglers, rally those
who halted, and hurry forward all troops. They did
this under a very hot fire, which was as terrible a.
short distance from the fort as in it. The rear divi
sion of the 7th and a portionof the 100th New York
were massed together, crossed the.ditch, and essayed
to get a foothold inside from one point, while the
G2d and 67th Ohio went to another.' Every regiment
behaved nobly, and all have a;fearful roll of casual
ties to attest the persistency and energy of their
; effort to obtain and hold the fort. One corner of *
the fort only wag ours, and thit was swept by grape
andcanißter and exposed to musketry. Thetroopß
looked back, saw they were j alone, and began, to.
falter. - General Strong had been up and sneered
and rallied Mb quondam classmate, and even friend,
Oelonel Putnam, and returned to try and bring up
reinforcements,. Colonel Putnam implored, entreats
ed, : commanded-hls to hold on but a moment
longer, and then another minute, and then a mo
ment again, but no help came. \He had sent a mes--
senger to ask for reinforcements. He did not know.-
that Generals Strong and Seymour had both been
carried from, the .field wounded. The messenger
learned the fact, and went to Gen. Gillmore. The
latter anxious, but still cool and clear-headed, told
him the reserve^ a Fresh brigadej hmj SSf 3 1 '

killed, and that our troops had retired from the fort
entirely. That was the result, briefly told. General
Stevenson’s brigade was being conducted by Colo
nel Turner, of General Gillmore’s staff, to reinforce
Colonel Putnam, when the news of his death and
the retirement of his troops reached them in sea
son to prevent the whole rebel fire taking effect on
them. Sadly and disappointed they, turned-back,
and the battle-field waß left to the. enemy, and our'
dead and wounded. The rebel fire ceased, the am
bulances met the stretchers at the edge-of danger,
and the groans of the wounded, the chirps of the :
crickets and the beating of the surf were soon all
the sounds we could hear, for the fire on both Bides
had ceased. The rebels, too, had dead to bury and
wounded to care for, and peace was to reign for a
night at least. .
Our fresh troops.fell baok to the entrenchments in
good order, occupying all our old positions; and the
shattered regiments rallied-around their torn, jburned
and smoked standards, to go into, camp and call the
names of the absent forever.

was found to be unusually large in proportion to the

CONYBRSATIO2TWITII REBEL OFFICERS,
Several rebel officers came out of the fort during"
the burying and converecdwith the officers in charge
of our parties. They confplimemed our troops In
the highest manner. They said their charges were
so determined and vigorous* thafcit was almost im»-
possible to stand before them. At one time they
anticipated being driven from the fort. When the
fight commenced Qn the 10th they scarcely expected
to bold the fort all day 3 but now they said they in
tended to keep possession ef it*. They were very
bitter on the negro troops, and said Each as they had
captured would be sold at auction; '

to return the body. They were met first by CAptain
Tracy, and afterwards by General Heygood and
Colonel Cates, formerly members of Congress. They
had a very pleasing interview, and talked quite
freely on some points. “We intend to beagreat
nation yet,” said they, “We think ws 1 can live
without you* but you show your weakness by de
claring you cannot live without us.” That was their
principal point. They also complained about the
negro soldiers, urgiDg that it was unchivalrous to
send negroes to fight gentlemen. One important
result of the interview was a mutual agreement for
the general exchange of wounded prisoners. The
Cosmopolitan will take up the wounded rebels to a
point near Fort Sumpter, and there be met by a
rebel steamer with our wounded on board, when an
exchange will take place. ,
’ THE COLORED TROOPS.
of the Evening Post.]
Port Royal, July 24,1863.
Freßh honors crown the colored troops. So fully
had their character for bravery and reliance been
established, that in. the recent assault upon Fort
Wagner the 54th Massachusetts were allowed to
lead our veteran troopß, nor did they (to their honor
teitsaid) refuse either the lead or their support.
. On forming them into line General strong, who
had, by hiß soldierly and kind bearing toward them,
secured their confidence, raising his stentorian voice,
cried out, 11 Is there a man here who thinks himself
unable to sleep in that fort to nightl” The earth
rang with the thunder of their “No !” Turning to
the color-bearer, he said: “Ia there any man to take
his place if this color-bearer should fall?” With
lifting of hands, and leaping, and almost yelling, all
through the enthusiastic ranks, came the response,
“Yes! yes!!” -
GENERAL STRONG’S TESTIMONY.
From General Strong himself, as he lay. in the
hospital four days afterward, suffering from his
ghastly wound, I learned that these.men had “had
no sleep for three nights, no food since morning, and
•bad marched several miles.” : Under cover of dark
ness they stormed the fort, facing a stream of fire,
faltering not till the ranks were broken by shot and
shell; and in all these severe tests, which would
have tried even veteran troops, “ they fully met my
expectations,” said the General, “ for many of them
were killed, wounded, or captured on the walls of
the fort. Woman broke till fired upon,”
THE SUPPORT OP THE COLORED REGIMENT.
The 6th Connecticut, who had honored themselves
at Jacksonville co-operating with colored troops,
supported the 54th in tbe assault. Several of the
officers lying in the hospital confirm the’, testimony
of Gen. Strong. The regiment went in seven hun
dred strong, and brought off only three hundred and
sixty sound men. Of seventeen officers, only three
came out unhurt. The number of killed I have not
learned. About two hundred are now lying in our
hospitals. Some, who had prophesied that-the
colored man would not stand fire, but had finally
yielded in hiß , favor, still contend that ghastly
wounds aDd suffering, with slaughter and death of
comrades, would quash all their love of freedomand
soldiering, and silence the boasts of their friends.
WOUNDED COLORED SOLDIERS IN HOSPITAL,
On the second and fourth days after the fi»ht I
passed through nearly all the wards of the hospital.
On the second day a very large proportion of their
wounds had _not been dressed, and of course they
were very painful. Some lay with shattered legs or
arms, or both pothers with limbß amputated. Rebel
bullets, grape, shells, and bayonets have made sad
havoc. Standing amidst a large number, I said,
“Well. boys, this was not part of the programme,
was it’” “ Oh, yes, indeed, we expected to take all
that comes)” said some. Others said, “Thank God,
we went in to live or die.”
If out of it and home, how many would- enlist
again 1 With brightened faces and some raising of
even wounded arms or hands, all said, “Oh yes, yes.”
Soine sang out, “ Oh, never give it iip till ithe last
rebel be dead,” or “the last brother breaks his
oßaina-’? on “il all our dbodlb let their- freedom ; me
unu aiiinu lu tilth”
i'rreJt Wywsi from ■ Vhi9> whesv firm woe fisdiy
shattered by a shell, said, “Ob I thank God-so'
much for.the privilege; I went In to live or die as
H‘e please.” He stood right under the'uolifted
sword of their brave Colonel Shaw, on the very top
of the parapet, as he-cried, “rush on, rush on,
boys!” and then suddenly fell, quickly followed by
Myers himself.
; No man can pass among these suffererß, ; so pa
tient, so cheerful, and hear them exprens their -de
sire for a speedy recovery, first • and only, that they
may (the almost universal expression) u try it over
again;” also, their firm conviction that ■ they are
soldiers for Jesus, to help on his war of freedom for
all the oppressed, and.not be inspired with-deepest
abhorrence of slavery and unquenchable deßire for
freedom of their race. I have seen much to admire
in .them as servants, laborers in the field; as
soldiers; in camp, on the battle-field, but never so
much in all these relations that is so truly manly,
heroic, and sublime as exhibited in the furnace fires
of war.
NEGRO SYMPATHY.
The sympathy and kind attentions or the colored
people are unmeasured. "Yesterday Peter, from a
plantation seven miles distant, calling on General
Saxton, said: u General, I bro’f load of corn from
ou! people for de sogers mde hospital. Some -gives
two ea»j some four, and- soine'more, as dey be able.
May de poor wounded sogers have it!” “ Yes, yes;
I thank them for it,” said the General.. Men, womea,
and children, by the hundred, have turned minister
ing angels to their suffering benefactors, as the bas
kets of corn, figs, melons, pies, cakeß,kettles of cof
fee, soup, and numberless other tokens of sympathy
clearly evince,;
STATES IN REBELLION.
Ail Important Spcccli by A. 11, Stephens.
[From the Richmond Dispatch, July 23 ] .

-tHe Sontß, Btoppcri At CtiArtottr, tf. <3., uu *
filskt. x&d wis saimaxd 1# s.lisg4 izzisszsz
oitizsnu. In reply lie made them a apeeoli about an
hour in length. He commenced hy alluding to the
invasion of Maryland and Pennsylvania by Gen. -.
Lee’s army; said that it had whipped the eoemy on
'their own soil, and obtained vast supplies for our
own men, and was now ready to' again meet the.
enemy on a new field. Whatever might be the
movements and objects of Gen. Lee, he had en’ire
confidence in his ability to accomplish what:he
undertook, for in ability and intellect he was a head
and shoulders above any man in the Yankee army.
He commended Gen. Lee for keeping his own se
crets, and told the people not to be discouraged be
cause they did not hear from Lee over his own signa
ture. ,He would come out all right in the end.
Mr. Stephens then spoke of the surrenderof Vicks
burg, and said that it was hot an occurrence to
cause discouragement or gloom; that the loss of
Vickßburg was not as severe a blow as the loss of
.Fort Pillow, Island No. 10, or New Orleans. The
Confederacy had survived the loss of these points,
and would survive the loss of Vicksburg, Port Hud
son, and other places. Suppose, said he, we were to
lose Mobile, Charleston, and Richmond, it would not
affect the heart of the Confederacy, We couldand
would survive such losses, and finally secure our in
dependence. He was not at all discouraged at the
prospect; he never had the “blues” himself, and
bad no respect or sympathy for “croakers.” The
enemy has already appropiiated • twenty-seven hun
dred millions of dollars and one million of men for
our subjugation, and after two years’ war had ut
terly-failed, and if the watfeontinued for two-years
longer, they would fail to accomplish our sutfjuga
tion. So far they had broken the shell of the Con
federacy. In the Revolutionary war the British at
one time had possession of North Carolina, South
Carolina, and other States; they took Philadelphia,
and dispersed Congress, and for a long time held
almost complete sway in the colonies—yet they did
not conquer our forefathers. In the war of IBl2.the
British captured the capital of the nation, Wash
ington city, and burnt it, yet they did not conquer
us ; and if we are true to ourselves now, true to our
birth-rights, the Yankee nation will utterly fail to
subjugate us. Subjugation would be utter ruin and
eternal death to Southern people and all that they
hold-most dear. He exhorted the people to give-the
Government a cordial to frown down all
aim- yi uiut>lcx»| asa VO xemain Tmited| arid
Titter en JWrUUrtv and incLepeaden.ee.
As for roeonefeructlon, eald Mr. Stephens,' such a
thing was impossible—such an idea mußt not be
tolerated for an instant. Reconstruction would not
end the.war, but would-produce a more horrible war
than that in which we are engaged; The only
terms on which we can obtain permanent peace is
final and complete separation from the North.
Rather than Bubmit to anything short of that, let ub
all resolve to die like men worthy of freedom.:
In regard to foreign intervention, Mr. Stephens
advised hiß hearers xo build no hopes on that yet
awhile.. He did not believe-that the leading foreign
Powers-ever intended that the North and South
should be again‘united; they -preferred that the
separation should be permanentbut they consi
dered both sides too strong now, and did not deem
it good policy on their part to interfere and >put a
Btop to the war. Foreign nations see that the result
of the .war will be to establish a. despotism at the
North, and are therefore willing.to allow it to con
tinue a while longer.
The whole tone of Mr. Stephens’ speech was very ,
encouraging, and showed not the slightest sign of
despondency. He concluded by expressing entire
confidence in the ability of the Confederacy to main
. tain our. cause and achieve independence.
ENGLISH PERFIDY—ROEBUCK’S MOTION.
[From the Richmond Examiner, July 2LO .
The issue of veracity between the Emperor of the
French and Sir George Grey , English Under
secretary for Foreign Affairs, is suggestive of grave
reflections respecting'the position of France and
England in reference to us. In the matter of ve
racity as between the French Emperor and Grey-no
one can for a moment hesitate to decide. The Em
peror was evidently indignant at the-treacherous
violation of oonMnnos of wMoMHa,En?llali Tfnroiyn
iificrotnn ona neon puny! nna ns tire masiwi
tfty ! interview between-- himeelf and
Messrs, Roebuck and Lindsay to make.. public his
dissatisfaction at that- course. He authorized Mr.
Roebuck to make the following statement iu the
British House of Commons:-
“ As Boon as I learned that the report- was circula
ting in England (that he had changed his mind on
the question of recognizing the South), I gave in
structions to my ambassador to- deny the truth of it.
Nay, more, I instructed him to say that my feeling
was not exactly the same aB it because it was
stronger than ever in favor of recognizing the South.
I told him, also, to; lay before the British Govern-.
meat my understanding and my wishes on this ques
tion; and to ask still again whether they would be
willing to join me in that recognition.” ,
Mr. Roebuck further stated that he laid before the
Empeior two courses of conduct. “Your Majesty,”
said Mr. Roebuck, “ may make a formal application
to England.” The Emperor interrupted him at this
point and said *
“No, I can’t do that, and I will tell you why.
Some months ago I did make a formal application
to England. England sent my despatch to America.
That despatch, getting into Mr. Seward’s hands,
was shown to my ambassador at Washington. It
came back to me, and I feel that I was ill treated by
such conduct.”
The feeling was a natural one; but certainly the
Emperor should have been prepared for any act of
perfidy on the part of the English Government.
The hostility of England toward us, measured by a
resort for its indulgence to means so infamous as
that of a treacherous betrayal of the secrets of an
ally acting ia good faith in the matter of our recog
nition, must be regarded as profound and implaca
ble. National disgrace is chosen as an alternative

INCOMPEtENt*' OFFICERS.
Tlie Richmond Examiner says:
Looking to the results of the President’s appoint
ments, we beg respectfully to ask what pre-eminent
ability and integrity were exhibited in the follow
ing instances:
Trans-Potomac Lovell, (who, unless misrepre
sented, lectured to New York Audiences on the art
of war until after the battle of Manassas,) to the
command of New Orleans.
_ Pennsylvania Pemberton, who gave up Cole’s
Island, which enabled the enemy td obtain his.
present foothold at Charleston,’and advised the de
molition of Forts Sumpter and Moultrie, to the com
mand of Vicksburg.
The President’s brother.in-law, Richard Taylor,
(who, until the present’affbir at Brashear City, the'
facte of which are yet imperfectly known, had done
comparatively nothing,) to a major generalship.
His relative, Samuel Jones, who had,never led a
regiment into action, to a major generalship.
His favorite, Heth, (who had. done nothing, over
Price, who had done more with his means than any
man in the service,) to a major generalship—-an ap
pointment actually made, but denied, and only
changed to a brigadier’s commission after three
months’resistance by the Senate.
The substitution of the dashing hut injudicious
and unlucky Van Dorn in place of Heth, as major’
’general, overprice. '
The appointment of George Crittenden, twice die
-missed from the United States army, as major gen
eral* over the heroic and capable Zollicoffer.
-The displacement, by means of an unworthy trick,
of Beauregard by Bragg.
The substitution of G. W. Smith by Elzey.’
The appointment of Holmes, deemed incompetent,
as major general in Lee's army, to Lieutenant Gen
eral* comin . a bding the Department of Arkansas.
The preßißtent detention in command of Hind than,
against the moßt earnest expostulation of the Ar
kansas delegation in Congress.
Finally, the appointment (at thiß late day, when
disasters which have shaken the country to its cen
tre have befallen, so many of his favorites) of a man
who has never exhibited capacity, but rather the re
verse, to the post of lieutenant general in Mississip
pi, the .point, of all others, where most capacity is
needed. • •- .
To which of these appointments will the advocate
of a Dictatorship point in proof of;the unerring
wisdom and impeachability of character, his lack of
partiality, and capacity of inspiring public'confi
dence* If to Lovell, there is the fall of New Or
' * *5. *° be accounted for. If to Pemberton, the loss
of Vicksburg, and possibly of Charleston, must be
justified. If to Taylor, Banks' successes, including
the fall of .Port Hudson, must be explained. - If to
Jones, nothing must be said on either Bide, except
that the net result of nothing is nothing to the credit
of a general or his appointer. If to Heth, the dis
graceful defeat at Lewisburg looms up.

Buohabbst, July 16.—Four hundred Poles and
some Englishmen left Ynuchte on board of an Eng
fish steamer, and disembarked on the 13th, between
Beni and Jomail. Instructions had been received in
regard to this expedition by the Waliachiari authori
ties. The troops were to employ persuasion, and to
avoid a conflict with arms at any cost. Their con
ciliatory efforts, however, were not attended with
any result. A fight took place which lasted for five
hours, and terminated in the retreat of the Poles,
who abandoned their dead and wounded.

THE RUSSO-POLISH QUESTION.
Six points, agreed upon as the propositions of the
great European Powers to Bussia, are contained in
the recent note of Austria. The Austrian Premier
writes:
As a natural consequence of the communication,
made to us, we, in concurrence with the London and
Paris Cabinets, took into consideration the expla
nations-given by the Russian Court. They an
swered the expectations which we had formed of the
wisdom and liberal intentions of the Emperor Alex
ander. The St. Petersburg Cabinet appeared to wish
for an exohange of ideas as to the meanß to.be em
ployed for the attainment of our mutual wishes, and
Austria, France, and England were, so to say, re
quested to give a definite form to their opinions, and
to enter into a friendly discussion with the Russian
Government respecting them.
Being moved by a spirit of conciliation, we lost no
time in entering the path pointed out to us. We le-

NORTHERN GENERALSHIP.
CFrom the Daily News. 3
Gen. Meade has already fulfilled the high opinion
of his military knowledge and» ability, his brother
officers were said to entertain, and vindicated an
appointment which at first seemed, even in Ame
rica, to have filled almost every one with surprise.
GENERAL MEADE.
CFrom the Manchester Guardian. 3
There is a special difficulty in using our past ex
perience of official bulletins to.- assist- us in esti
mating the true significance of the scanty intelli
gence which we possess respecting this eventful
struggle. General Meade-is new to us in the-chief
command, and we have no means of knowing
how far'his notions of policy and propriety, in
the preparation of documents intended for pub
lication, coincide with those of some, of hia
predecessors. Judging from precedents, afforded
by the reports of such men as Pope and
Hooker, we should be justified in expecting that
the next mail would bring us news of a crushing
Federal disaster. Giving Gen. Meade,;on the other
hand, the credit due to an untried man, of being
fairly modest, truthful, and temperate, it may be in
ferred that he has succeeded beyond* expectation in
bringing the triumphant career of the Confederates
to a pause, and possibly in providing them with
good reeson to. rue their;temerity.

Personal.
—The death of a young female, Mary Ann Walkley
(in'the service of a fashionable West-End milliner,
Madame Ellse, a Frenchwoman), from exhaustion,
caused by overwork and the breathing of impure
air, has caused a sensation in London. The facts
atteDdiDg the extinction of this young creature, as
they were developed at the inquiry before the coro
ner, reveal a state of things about which the fine
ladies who employ these court milliners can know
nothing. Dr. Lankester has made a report on the
subject. “ I found sixty ladies,” he says, " working
in- two rooms which contained 3,630 cubic feet of
air, and this gives but little more than sixty feet of
air to each individual.” It has been remarked that,
in a sanitary point of view, these rooms have even
less air than the Black Hole of Calcutta, into which,
though double the number of people were .thrust,
yet many of them died a horrible death in the course
of a single night.
A Vicksburg' correspondent writes: "The edi
tor of the Vicksburg Whig graced the rear of the

out-rider behind to hold up (editors never get intox

The Basil Duke captured with Morgan's men
in Ohio is, we believe, says the St. Louis Union, the
individual who formerly acted as one of the Police
Commissioners of this city, under appointment from
Claib. Jackson. He, aided by the other police com
missioners, organized the police to participate in the
capture of the arsenal and the arrest-of Union men;
and at one time he had forty bunks prepared
in the calaboose for the accommodation of the pro
minent Unionists whom he expected to seize and
imprison. We have no doubt he has a lively re
membrance of these little matters.- Now he is &
prisoner himself, and, we imagine, his career is at
an end.
General Garibaldi is god-father to 4,000 children,
2,000 boys have received his name. He is honorary
burgess of 90 cities and towns, and honorary presi
dent of 120 associations. He has 21 - swords of
honor, of which 11 have been sent, from abroad.
Since 1859 3,000 addresses of devotedness* have
been sent to him. In consequence of the
ment introduced into the cultivation of the land
which he possesses at Caprera, his annual revenue
amounts t 03,000 francs. Originally, it was almost
nothing.
The Chambersburg (Pa.) Valley -Spirit says that
while that ancient borough was under rebel rule, a
rebel soldier applied: to a lady for an axe to cut
down a liberty poll which had stood in the public
mars sra sinssths great UDflami or the people
npoinae ran or Fort simpler: sue Mined to give
tne axe. He drew Mb piatol from hia Belt and threat*
ened to shoot her unless she complied with his de
mand.- She replied, with perfect coolness, “You
can put twenty bulletß through my. heart, but you
cannot force, me to give you an axe to cut down,
that pole.” : _
Says the Springfield Republican: “ Give Joe
Hooker another chance: not as the commander of
a great army, but as the . captain of a division, or
the leader of an expedition. Give him from 20,000
to 40,000 men under General Meade, or by himself
on the Peninsula, and let him try onoe more. Like
Stonewall Jackson to the rebels, Hooker has proved
himself our best fighter in a subsidiary, expeditiona~
ry capacity. Let him go to his old place, and renew .
the laurels of 1862.” - „

tained a fair character. Dr. Clarke said: .“His
reason a are that having been in the war and fought

ministerial character, but is inclined to be trement

ment to vißit England, with the view of promoting*
in conjunction with Mr. Adams, a solution of such
difficulties as had arisen, or might-ame-.oa questioua,

justice to General Burnside, who .has. been sp-jnuch
traduced for want of promptness in checking Mor
gan’s career, that had Judah pushed on to Piketon,
as he should and could have, done, John. Morgan’s
whole force must have fallen into, our. hands at or

is justly chargeable to Judah.
