Peace Proposals from Jeff Davis. Atletter in the Boston Transcipt, froth Mr. JAMES R. GrEmonE, better known as " Edmund Kirke," the author of :several charming books, gives the true account of the so-called " extraordinary mission. to. Richmond." We doubted, when the news paper statements were first published, that Mr. GILMORE or Col. jACJIESS had visited Richmond for any purpose that might be missionary. In facti it was never said that Mr. GuzionE had such purpose; and he unequivocally affirms that the President: knew 'nothing of COL JAQUY-SS' Mr. LINCOLN; in fact; had not seen the Colonel for three yearS. The foolishattempt to give this visit great political importance is thus exposed by Mr. Grptoltu's straight forward letter; Mr. GILMORE knew no thing of any peace negotiations , and, what. el , er his object may have been in passing through the rebel lines; he las :not - seen fit to publish it. Certainly he did not come back to startle the country With astounding revelations, Re has, - hbwever, been forced to make one statenient, which is very portent in relation to the pretended peace propositions of MCSSTS. PLAY, I.IOLCOMBE, and TITOMION. In their letter to Mr. GnEELE,i, CLAY and IfoLcorsrsE endeavored to make the country believe that they were 01p -informed bearers from JEFFERSON DAVS of pro posals of peace on the basis of kite restora tion of the Union. Certainly, they had not the audacity to . make all this noise about proposals of peace on a basis'of disunion. Knowing, as the whole world knows, the determination of the Governinent, it would have been the extreme of ab6urdity to have gone to Washington to askfor the recogni tion of the Southern Confederacy. The utter falsity of their preOnsions is, there fore, shown by a compari:Son of their care fully worded and sophistLeal letter with the plain statement of Mr.. GITZIORE. These gentlemen claim to po42sesS the full confi dence of the rebel Govt'irninent. Therefore, they must have knoym, before going to Niagara Falls to irts!alt the people of the North, precisely whrat Mr. GmaronE has told us of JEFFERFI;ON DAVIS' intentions. "JEFF. DAvts said' to me last Sunday," writes Mr. GILIIO4E, "this war must go on till the last of 04 gemeration falls in has tracks and his children seize his musket and fight our battle, Tnless you acknowtedge our right to self-governmont.. We are not fight lug for slavery we are fighting for inde pendence, and: that or extermination we will have." Does this Look like peace? CLAY and HoLcomur,came rather with a ntw de chmition of war. There is no doubt, if we are to belicve Mr. GILLIORE'S statement, and we do implicitly, that Mr. GREELEY has been decei , red by these pretended agents of the rebel' authorities. " His general in ference that the pacification of our country is neither so difficult nor so distant as seems to be pnerally supposed," cannot be re, coucileet with this deliberate declaration of JEFFEUEON DKvis, unless, indeed, we presume that Mr. GREELEY, in writins , these - words, referred to the probable fall of Atlanta, to the desperate straits of the South, and the likelihood that the rebellion must soon succumb to our arms. JEFFERSON DAvIS, by this defiance, has done all to destroy the Nam party in the North that its bitterest opponents could ask. He has shown that: negotiation with rebel commissioners would be absurd, cow ardly, and disgraceful. Ile will have no peace that does not divide the Union, but it does not follow that the peace he desires will be that ultimately to be attained. 'As RicriELlEu said to 13AitAnAs, we might say to him, " What new page in the court Ca lendar made you a plural ?" The " we" he so boldly uses is rabre probably the .im perial boast of a usurper than the perma nent resolution of the people. The ,pro gress of the war—the restoration of Mis souri, Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas, and Louisiana—proves that the Southern people are not so desperately bent upon separa tion or extermination as JEFFERSON DA, vis may be himself. The Rights .of the Soldier. Disenfranchisement of the criminal or the lunatic is admitted to be just, but it was reserved for the Democratic-party to make it the penalty of the noblest act of patriotism. A. man can make no greater sacrifice than to risk his life for his coun try, and it would seem that all parties should at least agree in this, that if special civil privileges should be given to any, they should be given to the citizen soldier. Certainly no political party worthy of trust would desire to take from the men - who have volunteered to defend their country to the last the common rights of which even the coward is the born possessor. Yet this is precisely what the Democratic party of Pennsylvania has attempted to do, in denying the right of the soldiers of the State to .vote. Of this disgraceful fact there is unfortunately no doubt. The decision of the Democratic candi date. for the Governorship, It year, pre vented thousands of the best and bravest citizens of Pennsylvania from taking any part in the election. The legality, though not the sincerity of this interpretation of the laws was doubted at the time, and it was hardly denied, even in the heat of the canvass, that it could not have been origi nally intended to disenfranchise American soldiers, upon the poor pretext of pre venting military interference at the polls. The decision notoriously aroused the indig. nation of the army and of the people,•yet the Democratic members of the Legislature, the leaders of the party, its newspaper organs, have never expressed any desire that the soldiers should vote, or attempted to have the laws governing soldiers amended so as to affirm positively their right. If these facts do not prove that the present, Demo cratic, party is opposed to the recognition of the great democratic principle that the American soldier does not forfeit by enlist ing his rights as an American citizen, then all argument is absurd, and no demonstra tion possible, It must not be forgotten that the Union party originated the amendment to the State Constitution, expressly declaring the right of the soldiers to vote, upon which the people of the State are to vote on the 2d of August. If there is any particular honor in the doing of simple justice, the Union party can claim it. The soldiers of Pennsyl vanfit will owe the reversal of Mr. Justice Woo - Dwattp's decision solely to the efforts of the party which sustains the Administra tion, and, if it were possible for the amend ment to be defeated, their disappointment would be due entirely to the party which opposes it. We have no doubt that the amendment will be carried by a great ma jority; we know that many Democrats will vote for it ; but it is also certain that none of the votes against it will be given by Union men. Yet it is not and should not be made a party question. We desire to assert the right of the Pennsylvania sol dier to the franchise, and we would sustain this right with equal energy, though we were certain that every vote from the army would be polled for the Copperhead ticket. The Letter of Andrew Johnson, The letter accepting the nomination for the Vice Presidency which lion. ANDREW Jonasoa has addressed to the committee of the :National Union Convention, formally declares his belief in those principles of which his political life has been an embo diment. ANDREW JOHNSON needs to make no new assurance to the people. The re cord of no man is better known, especially since the beginning of the rebellion. Ile has stood prominently before the country, in the broad light of day, with every action fully known, and, with no opinion in the least degree concealed' While men more timid, or less sincere, waited for events to guide them, he from the first moment that the Union was known to be in danger pledged himself to a policy from whiali he has never departed. It was a policy brave as it was true. In the Senate he denounced treason to the face of the traitors. No words were too strong to express his indignation; not even the risk he personally incurred shook his resolu tion for a moment. No man who re members the dark days of 1860-'6l can forget the inspiration of his bravo and faithful words. Their influence upon the North was immeasurable ; -they aroused the country to a sense of its danger, and pointed out the only means of averting it. Ho warned the South of the consequences of secession ; earnestly argued and eloquent ly appealed to its people. .11e did his whole duty to the whole country, and if it had been possible that the men who were even then determined to dissolve the Union could have received his counsel, many of our present evils Would have been spared us. Since then he has been earnest, un tiring, and unceasing in Ids services to the Republic, and his vast influence in the Bor der States has been one of the chief causes which have kept them loyal. With such a record it is impossible that any doubt should exist of his principles or purposes, yet wb welcome his recent letter as au eloquent reaflirmation of truths that can too often he told. The words ANDIiEW JOHNSON has ad dressed to the Democratic party, can tot fail to have effect upon all thinking men. He is right when he says "that the hour has now come when that great party can justly vindicate its devotion to true Democratic policy and measures of expediency." He Points out emphatically that upon the issue of the war depends the existence of free government in America. He entreats them to remember 'what never should have been forgotten, that the . wretched differences of opinion among men who profess to be loyal "only encourage the enemy, prolong the Vicar, and waste the country." As a Demo crat who has never forsaken true demo cracy, AIiDBEIT Jonxisolt has' the right to urge these - truthi, and no true Democrat will hesitate to weigh them well. Costliness of Colonies. The ambition of England to obtain colo nial possessionS has helped to augment her national expenditure. Scarcely any of the British colonies are self-supporting, and it has been found necessary to defend them by military and naval force from the mother country. The sum paid, every year, by way of salaries to the various co lonial governors is a pretty sum, amount ing to £178,010. For the satisfaction of all concerned, we annex particularts: The amounts stated in sterling money are respectively as follows: Governor Ge neral of Canada, £Z777 a year ; Lieutenant Governor of Nova Scotia, £3,000; of New Brunswick, £3,000; Prince Edward Is land, £1,500; Governor of Newfoundland, £2.,000 ; of Antigua, £3,000 ; Officer in charge at Ascension, «1,000; South Aus tralia, «4,000 ; West Australia, .£l,BOO ; Bahama Islands, £2,000 ; Barba.dos,£4,ooo; Bermuda, £2,748 ; British Columbia, 81,800; British Guiana (FRANCIS HINCKS, C.

These are only the Gubernatorial sala ries. An army of office-holders has also to be paid, consisting of executive councils, commissioners, colonial secretaries, law officers, clerks, judges, chancellors, bish ops, deans, arch-deacons, rectors, chap- . lains, inspectors, commandants, aides de-camp, town mayors, quartermaster generals, adjutant generals, storekeep ers, recorders, receivers general, pro vosts marshal, sheriffs, harbor-masters, police magistrates, coroners, masters in chancery, surveyors general, collectors of customs, prothonotaries, bankruptcy com missioners, official assignees, engineers, ar chitects, auditors general, • emigration agents, controllers general, harbor masters, cashiers, revenue collectors, school inspec tors, admiralty registrars, Queen's prin ters, librarians, • barrack-masters, surgeons general, college professors, militia officers, quarantine superintendents, assessors, Queen's advocates, prison keepers, es cheators general ; interpreters, controllers of finance, telegraph superintendents, ord nance inspectors, tnint masters, astrono mers, conservators of forests, port captains, Queen's procureurs, grand bailiffs, Queen's greffiers, seneschals, surrogates, sergeants at-arms, college-wardens, and hundreds of other persons supported out of the public treasury. There is scarcely a " respecta ble" family in Great Britain and Ireland, at least one member of which is not quar tered upon the public, in some Colonial Office. Of course, with such chances, ho nest industry is at a terrible discount among the said "respectable" cadets. Office holding in this country is not nearly as ra pacious in its aim as the same system in England and her colonies. ATLANTA may be said to be virtually in our possession, though the reports of its occupation were premature. Though the city is strongly fortified, we do not believe that it is strongly garrisoned against such an attack as SUERMAN is able to make. The relative . strength of the two armies is suf ficiently shown by the forced retreat of JontiSTON, and his abandonment of so many fortified positions. It is probable that the city will be regularly beleaguered, but there is every reason for believing that the siege will be brief and brilliant. Tun death of Gen. JAuzs B. 3lcrnErtiow takes from the army one of its ablest com manders. In all the Western campaigns he held important positions, and never failed to distinguish himself and do good service tosthe country. In the army he had the reputation of a great soldier. Atlanta will be dearly purchased by his life. CIinSTX UT. STRUT TnnATllo.—The opening per. formance at this theatre, which was announced to take place this evening, has been postponed till Wednesday. At the rehearsal of "Aladdin," on Saturday night, it was discovered that Some altera tions wore required In the machinery, and as every care and expense has been lavished upon the pro duction of the piece, it was deemed but justice to the public that the first performance should not look any of the effect intended. On 'Wednesday, there, fore, "Aladdin " may be expected with all the bril liancy promised by the management.

JACOB:SS 13 a leading Methodist, and so was Gen. LoNnsTIIMET. They had an interview a year ago, and .TAQUESS be lieved he could make an impression upon the rebot - authorities. The President simply consented that they should be passed through our lines. Gen. GRANT secured their safe conduct to return, and this gave them importance in the eyes of officials at Richmond. They were received warmly by every one except, Jar} , DAVIB, who plainly informed them ho could entertain no proposition not embracing the independ ence of his Confederacy. GEN. GRANT ON TILE WAR. A gentleman just from the trent says that General GRANT expressed the belief that SuurnrAN would capture Atlanta. likewise said that the fate of the rebellion would then be settled in front of Richmond. Re aim declared that with one hundred thousand more mon in our arznies the rebellion could be crush ed In ten days. SOLDIERS' CEMETERY AT WASITINOTON. General .11.1vaos, to Nrhom the Secretary of War assigned the duty of selecting a proper place in which to inter the bodies of those who fell in the defence of We.shington, during the late rebel have, sion, has selected an acre of ground on the battle field; about 4500 yards to the right of Fort Stevens and about fifty yards from the Seventh-street road, in the immediate vicinity of the spotwhere the se verest fight took place. The duty of disinterring, and removing the bodies has been Intrusted to Captain J. M. Wrenn, assistant quartermaster, who has already properly interred all those who fell near Fort Stevens. . The ground has been laid oif in a square, and will be provided with a handsome paling fence. The bodies are being interred in a circle, in the centre of which it is the intention of the authorities to erect a monument, bearing a suitable inscription. Each grave will be provided with a neat headboard, bearing the name, rank, company, and regiment of its occupant. TUB YEDDO -- DESPATCH 'PHONE CAPTAIN WIN'SLOW It has been mentioned in some of the foreign pa pers that the Yeddo was the i'mssol designed for the second Alabama, but a despatch from Captain Wiwnow, dated the sth instant, just received by the Secretary of the Navy, says : "The Yeddo, which sailed from Bordeaux, is reported to have passed into Prussian hands, and has entered the Weser." Captain Wrxstow also communicates the fact of the death of WiLmisr Gong', one of the wounded In the late action between the Koarsarge and the Alabama. The following compliment is paid to him "Ito was a brave and gallant sailor. When suffering under a most excruciating wound, he offered a most encouraging example. When the cheer was heard on the surrender of the Alabama, he insisted that the Doctor should go up and join, saying he would be willing to bear a dozen such wounds to hear that cheer." A RUMORED RAID IN MARYLAND—FRIGIIT AMONG THE FARMERS. We learn that the people of Rockville and Montgomery county generally aro in a panic lila be lief that another rebel raid is In progress, and that they are running their horses, stock, &c., within the fortifications of Washington and Georgetown. A gentlemen who loft Rockville yesterday says he saw large numbers of farmers with their stook on the road, and they were hastening as though the re bels were right at their heels. A report in Montgomery county is current that the rebels are crossing an Immense army at Edward's Ferry and other fords of the Potomac. Indeed, rumor had it current that the force was at least 76,009 or so,ooe strong,and commanded byGener; al LEE in persOn. Whether there is any foundation for this report or not we have as yet had no means of ascertaining, but there is no doubt of the fact that the Mont gornery county farmers are badly scared. We un derstand that portions of the 6th and. 19th Corps, who chased the rebel's Into Virginia, are returning from Snicker's Gap, on their way to this city, and probably it is this returning force which has thus disturbed the peace of mind of the Maryland farmer: living on the line of the Potomac. On Tuesday, the farmers of Washington county Md., living along the river, got another scare, and began to run their stock off through Hagerstown, causing considerable uneasiness among the mer chants at that place. Reports wore rife that the rebels wore crossing the river again at Shepherds town, which proved to be the case. The rebels al luded to, however, N 70113 eighty-tour rebel prisoners, brought across the river under guard from the vicinity of Snicker's Gap. A RICIIMOND FICTION ABOUT GleN. GRANT. The Richmond , papers persist in asserting that General GRANT is dead. They announce the fiction very soberly, saying that the hags of our shipping have been at half-mast in his honor, and that our pickets confirm the intelligence. One of thera as serts that the only consolation the Confederacy can draw from his death is the fact that it will dishear ten the Yankees, who think him a wonderful Gene ral. Anyway, it don't believe he name to his death by a wound. Such a butcher as he, is more likely, it thinks, to have died of mania-o-poiu. COURT-MARTIAL. Two hundred and fifty cases wore tried before the courts-martial recently in session In Alexandria, under the direction of General Some P. Stovall, military governor. About sixty ..of the culprits were sent to Fort Lafayette. It is the intention of the General to reassemble the courts at an early day, they having been temporarily dissolved during the recent invasion, to allow the officers composing them to take the field.

OItEAT TIATTLIC AT ATLANTA-061E1'MR SLAIMITTER luzprir.s. • LOUISVILLE Sully 22 • —To-fiefs Nashville Union says, that a telegram from General Sherman says the enemy attacked Gen. Thomas on Wednesday,' fiercely, and was handsomely repulsed and roughly handled. 'The Union adds that the two armies are now on level ground, and the fighting Is more ,nearly equal. NEW Yona - , July Washington despatch to the Herald, dated last night, says that the battle of Thursday, between .Sherman''s and llood's (late Johnston's) armies, was very severe and bloody, and the defeat of the rebels most complete. They were driven back into their fortifications, with a loss of from six to eight, hundred killed, and our Threes' held the field, with about four thousand wounded and prisoners. All the 'lines of retreat had been cut off by Sher man, except the one vitt Macon, and that has proba bly been attended to before this time. Wssnirwrow,ly 21—Atlanta was virtually in our hands yesterday, so completely was it under the guns of Sherman from his positions gained, and we arc satisfied that he now occupies It fully. All the fighting with Johnston and with his Suc cessor, Hood, having resulted disastrously to tke enemy, Sherman cut the rebel telegraphic commu nications with alfontgomery, near Notasulga, on the 37th by a cavalry expedition, which was at Talla dega on Saturday, and which will undoubtedly bo heard from very soon as having played the mischief generally with the rebel communications with At- Tho rebel General John B. Hood, heretofore only n diriston commander, took command of the rebel army in Georgia on the lath. He owed his appoint ment oror Hardee and others to the faot that he alone of Johnston's captains has been fiercely op posed to Johnston's retrograde• movement' from Dalton. Ile was oounted upon to resist Sherman's advance at °very hazard, but it seems he has been no more successful than Johnston. General Bragg reached Atlanta on the 13th. WASIIINOTON, July M.—The Republican extra, The Government is in receipt of a despatch to-day froth the telegraph operator at Chattanooga, via Louisville, in the following words "Atlanta Is not ours yet. Our forces find strong opposition. It scorns that we are in possession of a part of the city, but the enemy holds the rest." Some official despatches, received from General Sherman's army, gist: some details of the fight be tween the rebel army, under General Hood, and the Union forces in front of Attanta: The tight lasted several hours, and was very se vere. The enemy assaulted our lines In strong force, and were repulsed with great slaughter and driren back into the fortifications, leaving from six to eight hundred dead on the ground, who were sub- Sequently burled by our men. Four thousand rebel prisoners were captured, most of whom had been wounded and left upon the field. Our loss Is reported at about fifteen hundred, our forces suffering much less than the enemy, from the fact that they fought behind earthworks, which the enemy were obliged to assault. General Sherman destroyed all the enemy's lines of oOF°ati°P; o F97;; pc. road to plp•oon, and has probably Sucaialtiii in clitilog tip that by this time. It Is hoped and expected that he will succeed in practically destroying the rebel army, as well as In capturing Atlanta. The Republican extra also announces the follow ing official news of the battle before Atlanta on Wednesday last : An official despatch from Gen. Sherman states that after the battle on that' day, Gen. Howard, commanding the 4th Corps i ,sent word that he had burled two hundred dead rebels in front of his Ilnes, and a large number of wound 4 were lying on the field. Gen. Hooker, commanding the 20th Corps, in ad vancing his lints on Weilneeday, met the enemy In an open field, and a most desperate battle, lasting several hours, was the result:. The enemy was thoroughly whipped and driven from the field. After the battle General Hooker re ported to General Sherman as follows : "I have buried four hundred deadrebels, and four thousand wounded are lying on my front." WASUINGTON, July 23.—Official details of Gene ral Sherman's battle on Thursday show that It was a brilliant and decided success.

They declare that he pos sesses none of the qualities requisite for an import ant command. Tho Richmond editors still prefer to cherish a hope that Atlanta may hold out. They report that Sherman has destroyed the tele graphic communication with Ilugnsta and Mont gomery. - The following despatch is copied from the Rich- mond Examiner of the 21st Instant: ATLANTA, Ga., July 20.—Reynolds' brigade at tacked the enemy's line of skirmishers last evening, at Peach Tree creek, and took possession of their entrenchments. He then charged the reserve pick ets, supported by Dllworth's corps, and captured fifty prisoners. The 18th Illinois Regiment lost in killed and wounded alone 100 men, while the loss of the 50th Ohio was also severe. The Framiner says, In an editorial regarding this tight : " Peach Tree Creek is a small stream which, taking its rise rive or FIX miles northwester Atlanta, flows In a southwesterly direotlon, empties Into the Chattahoochie near the railroad bridge,and west of Atlanta. Our right is believed to rest upon this stream, and to be piotected In its flank by It. This skirmish is an auspicious beginning br General Hood.” The Macon (Georgia) Coaledepsie says that but little quartermaster oreommisSary stores now re main in Atlanta, all having been moored to safer or more Aecure locations In the rear. The impression prevails in the army that the city will be defended, and not given up unless the army Is defeated. The Confederate has every reason to hope that Shorman , s rear will tie eat to the nest ten days, and the impression prevails, among high officers in the army, that if Atlanta is held until that time shall have elapsed, the crisis shall have passed. GIMNERA.L A. J. 1311ITIVS BATTLZB WITH if ORREST Miimum, July 22.—0 n the 15th instant, Major General Washburne sent out a force of cavalry, in fantry, and artillery, from Lagrange, under Major General Smith and Brigadier Generals Mower and Garrison, with instructions to march In pursuit of General Forrest, and bring hies to bay, right, and whip him. It was known General Smith had the ability, skill force, and personal fighting qualities to insure suc cess, and sanguine hopes are entertained as to the result. Re was ordered to pursue Forrest to Colum bus, Mississippi, if he did not overtake him this side. Day after day passed by, and nothing was hoard of the expedition, whose location could not be guessed within a hundred miles by the public. Again and again wo have had the assertion of secesh aympathizers that Forrest would either keep out of the way or get so favorable a position, and have such a superiority of Como; that he would be victorious. Day after day rumors of fiedoral disas ter were set afloat, when there was not a single fact known on which to base a speculation. So numerous have boon those canards that they at last attracted little attention, and everybody waited for authentic intelligence. It Is now hero. It is astounding to the enemies of the Union. It de monstratea that Goa. Sturgis' defeat has boon wiped out, and that tho rebel cause in this part of tho country has gone up. Nothing was hoard from the expedition until to day, when Gen. Washburne received IIIiVICO3 from Gao. Smith, from which it is learned that he has triumphantly executed the orders given him, and has thus again rendered essential service to the Cause of the country. . A despatoh received by Gon.

A scout that has since oome in reports the enemy's loss at two thousand five hundred mon, while our entire loss, it is be lieved, will not exceed three hundred men. The defeat was overwhelming. The rebels fought desperately, but the steady valor of the forces tight log for the Union carried all before thorn, and at last the rebels broke and lied, desperately sOoklug to save their lives. Front other persons who have come in 1013 learned that the rebel Gen. Faulkner Is killed, and Gen. Forrest badly wounded. Ono account Is that Gen. Forrest died of his wounds. The first report rela tive to Gen. Forrest gave details that he was wounded in tho book, and that his horse and equip ments were captured. The news comes in such shape, and from such ap parontly reliable sources, that we may ho assured. Gen. Smith's modest despatch will bo more than confirmed. Wo may be assured, also, that the robots have suffered a crushing defeat. Yesterday morning a man on horseback came dashing towards the city fro Man easterly direction, and, on being challenged- by the pickets about two miles out, stated that ho was the : bearer of Wiper ! lent intelligence, and wished to report at head. quarters. Seeing that ho had on his horse a United States saddle, they allowed him tepees. Ito rode in and reported at the Provost Marshal's office, stating that he was a deserter from Forrest's army ; that Forrest had met with a disastrous de feat in his engagement with Smith, who played the devil with them generally.; that ho had become con - 'Placed of the error or his Ways, and now wanted to take the oath and become a loyal man. The re pentant rebel was retained In custody for further examination. • • REPORT OP A DIISERTI-Et TROM PORREST'S cot_ °AFRO, July 22,—The Memphis Bulletin of the '2oth has a statement made before the provost marshal by LieuL Allen, a deserter from Forrest's command, who took the oath of tunnesty, and Immediately lett for his borne in Kentucky. Ho reports that Gen. S. D. Lee commands Gen. Polk's old departtnent, and that Richardson has been superseded by Neely, Richardson having been charged with making too millions out of the con seription business. Richardson escaped'punish ment, and is now living in Western Tennessee. Alien confirms the I sported wounding of Farrest at Tupelo. The rebels lost 1,500 at the fight at Gun town with Sturgis, and Col. Wisdom was among the killed. The most of this loss is attributed to the des perste fighting of our negroes, nearly'all their via' thns being shot through the head and breast. Major Bradford, captured at Fort Pillow, has been ordered to be shot by Forrest for violating his parole. Allen knew nothing of the President's amnesty proclamation, and says that the rebel soldiers are Ignorant of it. The Southern people think that if Lee and John ston are beaten the rebellion 14 RI soon terminate. They have little confidence in Johnston, and are heartily tired of the dreadful pressure they are sub jetted to. Forrest got 3,000 men in his conscripting expedi tion into Kentucky. Allan says that at the fight with Sturgis, May 2, at Bolivar, live hundred men could have captured all of the rebel trains.

A cavalry officer, who accompa nied General Smith's expedition, gives the particu lars of the entire operations of our forces. . . The expedition consisted of a division of aavalry and of infantry, and a brigade of colored troops. Gcn. Smith outmanoeuvred Gens. S. D. Lee and N. B. Forrest throughout the entire movement, and seundly whipped the rebels in five different engage ments. The battle at Tupelo, Mississippi, was a very se vere one. It was (ought on the lath instant. The enemy was totally defeated and terribly punished by our cavalry and negro troops, who bore the brunt of the battle ' and fought with remakable steadiness and valor. Another engagement succeeded this at night, and the rebels were disastrously repulsed, as they assaulted us behind temporary entrenchments. On the lath another battle Occurred. General Forrest led three desperate charges in person upon our lines, every one of which was repulsed, and the enemy was driven back with great slauzhter. On the night of the lath the last day's rations were dis tributed, and the next morning the expedition started to return, followed by Milord's rebel cavalry division, which was repulsed on theleth, and finally retreated, leaving our forces to continue their march unmolested. From the night of the 15th to the night of the 17th, our troops were without supplies, and were obliged to subsist on the country; but on arriving at Salem supply trains were met, and the men were copiously fed and rested. On the 20th the expedition reached Lagrange, with a loss (all told? of only five hundred men. Not . . a single gun or wagon was lost Or abandoned during the entire movement. General Grierson says the rebel loss cannot be less than four thousand. De- spatches captured from the rebels by Gen. Hatch admit a loss of two thousand four hundred. Among the rebels killed are Generals Columbus Faulkner, Mowbray, Nelson, Forrest, and Colonel Grier. Colonel • Wilkina, Lith Minnesota, and Lieutenant McMahon, of the 9th Illinois, are the only Federal officers known to have Leon killed. Our wounded wore arriving at-Memphis. Tho expedition returns solely on account of the exhaustion of supplies. Otir troops brought In 2,000 prisoners. The rebel dead were buried by our men on several occasions, Forrest refusing-to make a detail temporarily for that duty. The steamer St. Cloud, from White river, arrived at Alemphis on the 21st, bringing the first news from that region for over .a week past. She reports the river free from guerillas, and all boats In the stream safe. Six steamers were on their way down, among them the Commercial, with 000 bales of cotton.

RETORTED DISCOTIMT OF A ORBAT cor-srißecr ST. Louis, July n.—Much surprise was excited here a short time since by the arrest of several very prominent Secessionists of this city, whose offences were unknOwn. It has come to light, however, that they wero connected with a conspiracy extending throughout the entire Mississippi valley, having for its object the erection of a Northwestern Con federacy. Colonel Sandmen, provost marshal general of this department, has been gathering evidence in the matter for several months, which is now in posses sion of the Washington authorities. It Implicates many public men, and show,' an organization has been formed which Is very dangerous. One of the arrested parties Is said to have been so badly frightened that ho offered a bond of $500,000 for his release. It le believed the recent guerilla movements in the State have some connection with this scheme, particularly as Thornton, in a•speoch at Platte City, gild "Ilnights of the Golden Mole are organized and armed to rise throughout the free States. Yellen (light= is with them. I am Vallandlgham's man, and I have troops In every County of this State, and men are coming to MO from the South. I have raised 1,600 men in Illinois, and they will join me and will destroy the Hannibal and St. Joseph's Railroad on their march." • During Colonel Sanderson's invegigation into this conspiracy, he discovered the intended renewal of the boat-burning on the Western rivers, and was able in several instances to avert serious conse icaences. It is probable the whole matter will bo ventilated in a few days. The affair at Plattsburg, Clinton:county,on Thurs.. day, was not so bad as previously reported. After Captain Turner's death, Captain Poo took command, and made such a determined show of resistance that the guerillas left in the direction of liaynesville, and thence moved yesterday Into Platte county. Their reported strength is &DO. MIN ounnu.Ls WARPANN IN ILISSOURE-T/I6 The St. Joseph Weekly Herald of the 21st contains the following : Yesterday and the day before, Confederate sol diers were diligently engaged in picketing the roads four miles below this city. At an old school house this side of Sparta, they struck their camps. On the bottom road below King Hill they had a force of forty men. They killed a fat steer and had a general barbeoue. They recruited ton men out of Captain Noland's company, of Pa-paws In that neighborhood. They also, it is said, relieved that captain of his guns. They soon commenced their work of blood. Day before yesterday they went to the house of a near neighbor named Frederick Cook, (a German,) and shot him In the head, and confiscated his horses to the Confederate Govern ment. Some of the Andrew county Pa-paw militia wore also along, and engaged in the work. They had a Confederate flag, and were doing things up in style. Scores of farmers living in the lower portion of the county, came Into the city yesterday, having been driven from homeby the presence of guerillass. The stateof things existing hi this section is truly deplor able. Yesterday evening, twenty-four miles from St. Joseph, on the road leading from Matney's there was a camp of ono hundred rebels. This Is known from prisoners in camp. They conscripted three mon at Taos, and killed two Union 'non—ono a mere boy. They were butchered in the most hor rible manner.

The decided majority for the Ministers, it is considered, settles the opposi tion for the remainder of the session, which will close on the 2d of September. Palmerston, in response to an inquiry, said the Government believed the Germans had no inten tion of attacking Copenhagen. Coley Grattan, the author, is dead. THE DANO-OEELMAN WAIL A new Danish ministry has been provisionally In stituted under the presidency of Count Moltke, but several important posts remain unfilled. The Morning Post says the King has dismissed his Ministry, be has summoned a reactionary nobleman to take the seals ofpfilee, and ho has despatched a brother to Berlin and Carlsbad. This means, if it mean anything, that the King, backed probably by no insignificant party, Seeks for terms of peace en the basis of the admisstonof Denmark in its entirety to the Germanic Confederation. Denmark would then become the German naval Power, furnishing not only her whole resources, but giving her harbors and arsenals for Federal objects. For this project there is, however, ono great obstacle. France for bids it, and the Power which has hitherto shown no sign of moving intimates that tkis movement would be sufficient to bring her forces into activity. On the other hand, the other refuge of the Danes—the unitine themselves to Scandinavia—is Imperatively opposed by Russia. The Post remarks that the Danish question, so far from being settled, is only demonstrating its many difficulties. Other rumors of peace negotiations are afloat, but nothing authentic. A certain amount of panic pre. veiled at Copenhagen. The war journals wore call ing for the abandonment of the territories, and the concentration of the forces in Jutland, while the news of the reactionary cheer Of naleistr; las led to appreltensione ,The Inde pendence Beige has the following important remarks on the subject. It says: "The resolution suddenly formed by King Christian IX- to engage in direct negotiations for peace with the hostile courts, In con sequence of the disaster at Alsen, sufficiently indi cated that the pressure of the war party at Copen hagen was beginning to weaken. The addresees of the Chambers, approving of the absolute abandon ment of the DuehieS in exchange for the complete emancleation of Denmark from all Germanic in fluence, afford the best proof of it. The Conserve the journals first, and in their wake the Dagblottet, which is known to be the organ of the party of the Eider ' had shown without disguise the desperate situation of Denmark, and proclaimed the necessity of taking a definitive part. It was under these cir cumstances that King Christian decided to send his young brother to Germany to offer peace, and to dismiss the MoUrad Ministry, which was too much compromised for its continuance in power not to be an obstacle to the success the negotiations which are going to be opened. The despatch which brings us this news adds that the King has charged Count Moltke, who was formerly partof the Bluhme ministry, with the formation of a new Cabinet. The necessity of making peace, even at the price of great sacrifices, being once recognized by Denmark, the German Powers probably will not refuse to treat on this basis, and it is to be presumed that negotiations will proceed rapidly. Among the rumors which the brusque determination of the King of Denmark has given rise to, one has been circulated at Paris, according to which King Christian offered to the allied Courts to enter with the whole Danish monarchy into the Germanic Confederation on con sideration that the personal union of the Duchies with the crown of Denmark should be presorred. We do not see what great advantage Germany would find In such a combination, and we are certain that it would please neither the Danish people nor the European Powers. We regard it simply as a conjecture." The Tempt says that the entering of Denmark into the Germanic Confedera tion would be tolerated neither by France, England, nor Russia. It would, perhaps, tempt the German population, by the prospect of supremacy in the Baltic ; but it would raise the liveliest resistance in the Danish nation, the war party still preserving a marked preponderance in the Misread. "The more we consider this Danish question as affected by events, the more," says the Temps," We are con vinced that there is but one radical solution for the difficulties of the present and the threata of the future, and that Is the Scandinavian union. Apart from that there is nothing but the insufficient pat nations and convulsions 'of a Government at hay." The Germans have commenced crossing Lym Fiord, and their advance into North Jutland is ap parently begun. The other continental news is very unimportant. It is asserted that a suspension of hostilities has been agreed to by Denmark pending the peace ne gotiations. The new Danish Cabinet is represented as decidedly for peace. Mr. Spence, in a letter to the Timer, recommends a joint offer of mediation by the maritime powers to America. BELGIUM From Belgium we learn that the constitutional deadlock is about to cease in the curious way which is indicated by the following paragraph: M. Tesch, Minister of Justice, who is detained at the baths of Gusteln (Tyrol) by the illness of his wife, announces that he intends to leave her in the care of her physician and return immediately to his post, so as to be present at the sitting of Saturday. Bis vote making up the necessary number, the Chamber may, on his return, resume Its labors, not withstanding the absence of the right, and vote the law which will give the country six additional repre sentatives and three senators, conformably to Art -10 0 ' the Constitution. CODEtitaltiorial arrangements seem to bo very finely drawn In Belgium. MURDER 1I( A FIRST CLASS OARRIAOB ON TEM NORTH Ono of the most atrocious crimes which has occur red for some time was perpetrated late on Saturday evening, July oth, in a first class carriage on the North London Railway, when a Mr. Thos. Briggs, who was engaged In the banking establishment of Messrs. It. Curtis & Co. of Lombardstreet, London, was murderously assailed, plundered, and thrown out of the train. The unfortunate man was upwards of sixty years of ago, cud was a tine, tall halo man. The outrage was not discovered until the passenger train arrived at Hackney, when the Interior of the compartment in whiok the unfortu nate gentleman had travelled was found to be cover ed with blood. Not only the cushions, but the flour, sides, and windows were besmeared with blood. In some places there was quite a pool. There were also found inside the carriage a gentleman's hat, a walk ing.stiok, and a small leather bag. Tho guard at once took charge or the articles and locked the door. Some ladics,who were In the adjoining compartment, then called the notice of the guard to the circum stance that some blood had spurted through the car riage window on to their dresses as the train came from Bow. Inquiries wore made without any imme diate result, but meanwhile the body of Mr. Briggs was found on the lino by the driver and stoker of another train. On a surgical examination,lt was found that the unfortunate gentleman was fright fully wounded In the head, the skull in one place belng.beaten in. The money which Mr. Briggs heel In his pocket had not been taken, but his watch was Missing. The crime was committed between B'w and Ilacknoywick. The train was duo live minutes after leaving Bow, so that tho attack must have been made almost as soon as the carriages were in motion. The above fearful crime has erected intense ex citement in the metropolis. Among the many thou, sand passengers by tee trains coining Into London on the several railways, it Wll3 the topic Of conver sation. . - The deceased gentleman gradually sank from the fearful injuries which ho had ropeived, and died at a quarter to twelve Sunday night, in the,. UM BODCO of several members of his family. Amongst. the banking oirclos of the ; city the sad end of the de ceased had produced a painful sensation. The pollee, under the: direction of M. Inspector lierrissey, of the Bone station, are nicking the must active exertions. The bat which was found in tho compartment, and is-believed to tia_ve botor.ged to the murderer---wlio doubtless took the hat of the de ccasi.d in mistake—is ratuor a shabby ono. It bears the makers name, living in .D . lmylobone, and la shape IS something like those worn by foreigners. Most minute inquiries have bsen made with a view of ascertaining whether he was soon In the carriage, and the description of any person orpersons with him in.the same compartment. The officers of the renennrelt street station have been interrogated, unit the tirket.elerk recollects the deceased passing r4f on to the platform. • liolr the murderer get away la a matter of, musk doubt. In the struggle ho must have boon stained with blood, and it Is cooleetured that he may have received some marks of violence from the deceased. At that time of the night there are not many passengers alighting at Hackney wick, especially on Saturday evening—the parties coming home earlier, but with the train in question the porters state that there was rather a rush amongs,; the passengers to give up their tickets and leave the platform. It is very doubtful, however, whether the scoundrel, besmeared as he might bo with blood, departed by the station, and it Is thought more probable that ho ran down the embankment in Wick lane. Tho marshes and by-lanes would afford bin, a ready means of escape. It is curious to remark that the two gentlemen who discovered the state of the compartment at Hackney were clerks In the same hank as the do. ceased gentleman. It is feared that nothing satisfactory can he learn ed as to the persons who took-tickets at the Fen eburch-street station on that eventful night. The recess from which the tickets are Issued to passen gers renders It (Unimak for the person who distri butes them to see the people who apply for them. All sorts of vague rumors—many possibly un founded—are In circulation. The case and part of the inside of the watch of Mr. Briggs were, it is positively stated, found on Monday on the rail, and the hair chain on Sunday on the foot-rail of the car riage. If this be so, as It Is admitted that the do eemed's money (.C4 105.) was sate, one motive of murder—robbery—appears to be wanting.—Liver pool Post. Baxter's Fire ZOlll%VeB.
