FROM GEN; MCLELLAN'S ARMY.
Cornspondeae• of IbilPitte?arz . b. Gazette.
C4l NT sus CRICLAHOL as lIRERt
Wednesday, May 21, 1862.
Daily the rebels are getting in a more criti
cal situation. The disaffection which Las for
a long time been said to exist in their army is
now a settled fact. Deertere are coming in
continually, and report the "southern chival
ry" to be in a decided ' 4 11x." Brom a "con
traband" who had bean working at Yorktown'
for eleven months previous to its evacuation,
In the Quartermaster's Department, I learned
that provisions were beginning to get scarce,
which fact hastened their retreat. lie often
heard the officers discussing their future pros
pects, and they always came to the conclusion
that unless foreign powers interfered to raise
the blockade their canoe was hopeless. The
same man, who was .remarkably intelligent
for one in his "peculiar", condition, assured
me that when Yorktown was evacuated, many
of the soldiers started with nothing in, their
haversacks but parched corn, and that before
that they often left camp to go on a march
with a single ear of corn fora day's ration.
When they were lucky oineugh to get provi
sions it frequently happened that they were
compelled to leave them on amount of - an ad
vance of our troops. At Lee's Mill, they had
Just 'received a large quantity of stores of all
kinds, but the rapid pursuit of our troops on
the 4th inst., prevented them froth being is
sued, and rather than leave them to fall into
our hands, they broke in 'the heads of bean,
rice, molasses and sugar hogsheads, and told
the country; people to help themselves, but
burnt both. slatted flour, of which they had
large quantities. This loft them entirely des
titute, and, added to their naturally deatran
tive disposition,!accounts for the depredations
committed on personal property; in.thisaeo-
Day before yesterday a Leg of trace tame
In with two rebel officers, bearing some 'pro
position to Gin. McClellan. One was a Brig
adier General, and the other a Held officer.
They were brought in blind-folded by ...our
pickets, to Gen. Keyes' headquartera, who
sent them with_tin_sid to Gen. McClellan. As
look would have it, they met our Commander
in-Chief on the road, but he refused to recog
nize them, telling the officer having them in
ehargerto Bee them wife over oar lines. There
is much curiosity rife in • oamp relative to
their errand, ;sad thousand ' rumora are in
circulation in tegard to it, but as the General
refused to recognise them, of course they did
not make their mission public: '
I sew McClellan shortly after the occur
rence, and was struck arthe alteration in his
n O e f o rl la s t
t o s aw t
him—the
A s so me d o a f our or
a tEe evm an u ce ati s o
n boyeexpressed it, he looked decidedly !ratty'.
1 can compare his appearance to nothing more
aptly than that of a poor "typo" Who has
worked for two or three months without the
assistance of a "sub." .
- It is a current rumor at headquarters that
the Monitor is within three miles of Rich , '
mond, and holds that city completely at her
mercy. There is nothing improbable in this,
as the only place in the river capable of being
so obstructed as to prevent her passage up the
river is about fifteen miles below 'Richmond,
where there is a bar with feurteen 'feet of
water on it. This could be essily,passed over,
and the ascent-of oar gunboats followed so
closely after the evacuation 'of Norfolk and
Sewall's Point, that the rebels had no time to
put anything More than temporary obstruc
tions in our way, and these could easily have
been removed ere this. What gives an sir of
credit to this rumor is the !statement: ef a
wounded prisoner taken by the 81st Pa. vol.
matters in a skirmish on Saturday. This re
giment, accompanied by the 23d Pa. volun
mere and Sth Pa. cavalry, made a reconnois
sance', and encountered a email body of rebels,
who, after a short skirmish retreated.. Their
ambulance being rather crowded, this man
was requirid to get out and walk, hie wound
being but a slight one. He determined not to
walk, saying he would run the risk of being
taken by the Yankees first. Accordingly; he
quietly awaited the approach of our men, and
gave himself up: In a conversation with into
of our officers, he tuadeaome extraordinary
statement!. Its said that the people of Rich
mond were in a state of extreme perturbation,
and were'removing as tail as 'possible. The
Union people , ate getting . bold, rind daily
collisions occur betivetn them end.' mistook : en.
iota, even government ofildials are not exempt
from insult. •
'Since commencing this letter,another de
serter, a Philadelphian, who was pressed into
the 501 Louisiana (Tigers) has come into our
lines, and confirms the above statements. He
reports the force of the rebel army to be one
hundred' and fifty thousand, and that their
policy is to fall back incessantly., and thus
prolong tiro war till the Government, wearied
out of patience, will compromise with- them,
and admit thous into the Union. on their old
footing. ' •
Some fears exist here that the rebels will
hold us in cheek till they hare another place
fortified, as they , did af Yorktown, and so
compel us to follow tlietm . This larather dis
couraging to the Meli a as they would sooner
run the risk of a battle here than follow them
to the extreme South, as:they will, certainly
eve to do; if they siwoeed in - Valliitig•voin
this manner at every step." From elate Rich
mond paper r learn that we will have to wade
through Beat of hlood before obtaining posses
sion of Richmond, but when we remember tha t
Magruder was to make "Yorktown his matt
soleum, and the.neighb.ering fields his ceme
teries" such .ithteintnits stethese fail to have
auy effect on tho "Northern vandals."
• Near our camp is "Rose Cottage," the
former headquarters of Gen. Magruder. It is
a moat beautiful residenes, and was owned by
a gentleman of fine literary tastes, who, in his
htttry, left everything undisturbed. A large
and valuable library - was thus left behind. A
guard has heed placed Over the house, and
furniture and all will be found in good oondi
tion by the owner, if he should over return to
claim his property. • •
The railroad runs within a half a mile of
our camp, and many of the boys have been

forgotten the appearance of a tar era locomo •
