FROM HOOKER'S ARMY.
Toe news from the Rappahannock this
morning is of a disheartening character,
aid will cast a momentary gloom over
the Union cause. We confess ourselves
sadly disappointed, because, until yester•
dey morning, we confidently calculated
upon the overwhelming defeat of Lee's
army. It, is true that we had nothing
from authentic sources to justify this cot•fluent conclusion, but every report from
army correspondents and from letters
written in Washington, all pointed to the
not only certain success of our arms, but
the absolute annihilation of the rebel
forces. All the movement, first relied upon
for assess appear to have been accomp•
lished. Lee was compelled to come out
of his fortifications as Hooker predicted;
a'ter venturing out he was flanked and
stood between two terrible fires; Stoneman
was successful in destroying the railroad
leading to Richmond up to within a few
miles of that city; and yet, all of these
achievements conclude wita the retreat of
our army across the Rappahannock, if
not panic stricken, according to the Tri
bune, at least demoralized. This result
passes our comprehension; and the only
manner we have for accounting for it is,
not cur army labored under disadvantage
from the moment it crossed the river. The
dispatches announcing our constant and
c3ntinued good fortunes for five or six
days and the complete realization of Gen.
Hooker's plans, were manufactured by
stock-jobbers in New York, speculating
and gambling upon the distress of the
Nation. It will be remembered that those
dispatches did not come from Hooker
himself, but from irresponsible individu-
Ws doubtless in the pay of the dark gamb
lers in gold and stocks, to whom we have
eluded.
COMPENSATED LOYALTY.
Our remarks in Tuesday's Post, to the
effect of the Administration subsidising
the leading Abolition press of the country
has called forth the following from our
e'ghbor, the Gazette in reply to our allu
sion to another of its editorial staff re
wing a Federal appointment :
"If the officer in question has not made sacri
fices for hi , country, we should like to know who
has; and, if it will be any comfort to the Poyl
we shall simply say that his connection with the
Gazette had nothing to do with his app inttnent.
Ho flatters himself that he had other and stronger
c•aims toan such Os aro imagined in that den of
( :upperheads, who hate the Gazette with an in
tensity only second to that they feel for the Gov
ernment,"
In return for this explanation we desire
to inform the Gazette that in our former
remarks, we had no desire to impugn the
patriotism of the fortunate gentleman al
luded to. We know not what "sacri
fices" he has made for the country ; but
great as they doubtless are, we doubt
very much whether they exceed those of
many of our returned 'Union defenders,
who are now going about on crutches, but
who could, notwithstanding, very well
discharge the duties of the Commissioner
of the Board of Enrollment. Those who
have given unmistakeable evidences of
their patriotism and their sacrifices, are
singularly forgotten in the distribution of
official favors. If our new commissioner's
appointment wail made and secured be•
cause of his sacrifices (and we are inclined
to believe him a very meritorious citizen),
we are glad of it, and wish that our neigh
bor could say as much for the other half
dozen from its establishment, who are
now demopstrating their loyalty by signing
quarterly receipts for encouraging sala
ries. This kind of patriotism and loyalty,
although blatent and voluble, is just the
sort to corrupt the sources of public intel-
ligence. When we see a leading newspa
per, which has half a dozen of its adhe-
rents luxuriating in:profitable sinecures,
insisting upon our owing loyalty to men
who are themselves sworn to support the
constitution, and are liable to impeach.
ment if they violate it, we may indeed be
apprehensive of the corrupting tendencies
of official favors. This is what we com
plain of; the public press on one side is
being purchased, while that on the other
side is threatened with destruction for its
simple discussion of the acts of the Ad
ministration.
Thestrange and no less silly impres
sion of our "hating" the Gazette is pre
posterous. We dislike its teaching; it is
irrow, bigoted and proscriptive; but we
entertain no malice toward it. Every
day's experience demonstrates that it,
aad the radical faction to which it belongs,
are ruining the country as rapidly as they
can. They will not profit by experience,
bat rush blindly on, and like genuine
fanatics, denounce all who will not follow
their destructive counsels. They have a
crotchet about slavery, which two years of
bloody experience have proved, to be a
delusion; and, rather than abandon their
chimera, they seem, willing to sacrifice the
entire white populdtion of the country.-L- !
Struggling for an experiment in favor '
slaves, they appear willin destroy the
of
g to
happiness and prosperity of us all.

RIDAY MORNING, MAY 8
From tho New Bedford (Muss.)Mercury,
Affairs in Savannah, Geargia.
Mr. George A. Luce. who reached his
home in Marion a few days since, after an
absence of over three years in Dixie, most
of which time be has spent in the vicinity
of Savannah, Ga.. as a pilot, represents
the state of affairs in that city as in a very
deplorable condition. With the exception
of the machine shop, foundry, and govern•
merit work on steamers and iron clads,
tberels no business ; there are no vessels
at the wharves, nothing but river barges
and flat-boats, but few stores up town are
opened during the day, while the streets
appear like Sunday all of the time. But
' I I few young men are seen, though there are
plenty of gamblers who come and go,
never stopping long at a time. Thy al
ways dress well, even better than the e rich•
er merchants of the city, for there are
many who have reaped fortunes during
the war, by the rise in goods, contracts,
and by running the blockade. Places ot
amusement are but occasionakly opened,
l iand never for any long season. There are
but few fires, and then the large force of
cavalry detailed for the purpose keeps
everything quiet. The guard patrols each
street by night and by day; still it is
dangerous to be out after dark, and stab
bing and shooting affrays are numerous.
The local papers are dull and void of news,
everything is fast running to decay. The
majority of the people at heart arepray
ing and yearning for peace. Yet there are
some noisy and bold persons, loud in their
boasting that they never will yield. The
ladies are the greatest rebels, for they
won't allow peace to be spoken of unless
-by the victory of the southern troops.—

Consultation with the Spirits at
Washington.
Judge Edmonds, the man of "visions,"
is an adviser of the President, and is fre
quently at Washington. We think be is
now residing there. A "noted mediani"
of New York city is frequently sent for,
-and has interviews with the President, the
object of the latter being to obtain corn
nannicatiods from 'the spirits. This, we
have excellent authority for saying,. is
strictly true.
In referencet o the Proclamation, this
may be said. The spirit of Andrew Jack
son wag called upon and urged vehemently
that it should not be issued. The spirit
of Thomas Jefferson was called, and was
in favor of issuing it. It is now suspected
that - the spirit which repress -lied itself to
be that A;ff Jefferson was an impostor. -
.Frian - what we have been told we have
no doubt that the President is a very firm
believer in ghosts ; but, it is said, he is

The Richmond Pnquiar, the .official
organ of the Jeff. Davis Government, in
an article upon the Northern Democracy,
a few weeks ago, says:
".Let our enemy appear as an exterminating

Convention. Let him tako any shape but that

THEM LIKE, THAN TEN THOUSAND SHAVAHDS AND
Sri( NEILS.
"Oh, Dictator Lincoln! lock ye up those two
Peac e - Democrats—together with Richardson—in
SUDO Of your military prisons."
These were the responses from the
leading rebel organ to Mr. Vallandig
ham's speeches in favor of peace. The
course of the leading rebels , and their
newspapers towards such Democrats as
Vallandigham, has for the past few
months been more intense in hatred than
Rhea been against the Administration.—
These Southern rebels have made up their
minds to fight for the establishment of
their confederacy, and that being the case
propositions of peace from our side will
be by them laughed to scorn.
It will be seen, however. that the aboli
tionists have obliged the rebel organ in its
demand for Vallandigham's incarceration.
In order to properly appereciate the
case and facility of the arrest, we need
only direct the reader's attention to the
following paragraph, which Secretary Se

The War Near Fredericksburg.
Jackson's Saturday Night Fight.
The skirmishers of the day bad not
proved favorable to the rebels, and a
in every attack, they for a short time seem
ed to abandon the immediate field. Yet
beyond the right flank of our army intel
ligence was brought in that the enemy were
massing in force to the number of about
40,000 men. As evening shadows gather
ed in the woods, Jackson'sriwhole corps,
with Gen. Hill's division, dashed through
the forest and along the plank road, charg
ing at Gen. Howard's division on the ex
treme right. they came on, yelling like
scorched demons, as they always do when
attacking, crowding the road and present.
ing a formidable front. Before they fired,
the federal corps, which is composed of
Schurz's, Steinwehr's and Devin's divi•
sions,retreated rapidly, leaving the breast
works and being apparently much panic
stricken. A little longer and the results
might have been most disastrous to the
whole right wing:of the army, but General
Hooker promptly ordered up General
Berry's division, formerly commanded by
himself. The enemy had already passed
the breastworks, but were gallantly re
pelled, and retired to the protection of the
works. In this affair they captured 12
cannon abandoned by the division that
retreated. Thirty or more pieces of can •
non were instantly brought to bear on the
rebels, and General Pleasanton ordered
up his cavalry brigade for their protec
tion.
General Sickles was at this time making
A reconnoissance on the right of General
Howard's picket line, where the enemy
had been cutting a road, and he sue•
ceeded in capturing the Twenty third
Georgia Regiment, numbering four hun
dred and sixty men. He was obliged to
return when Gen. Howard's line was
turned, and thus the untimely retreat of
the German divisions spoilt more than
halt the plan upon which he was proceed
ing and the execution of which had com
menced so auspiciouly.
It was highly necessary that Hooker's
lines should be re-established immediate
ly, and after consulting with his generals
he ordered an attack for the same night.
It was a beautiful evening. The air was
as calm and serene as in peaceful times,
when it seems to breathe only of good
will and peace among men. The moon
Rhone as bright as it ever shone on sea or
land, and the' lace of nature contrasted
s veetly with the wreck and roar that soon
occurred.
The attack was assigned to the division
of General Hobart Ward, assisted by the
artillery of General Slocum's corps, com•
mended by Capt. Best. For a while the
clang and crack of musketry and the
thunder of cannon broke the quiet, and
echoed along the woods in horrible dis
cord, till the enemy were driven off and
our lines again restored to position.
The Battle of Sunday.
The battle of Sunday was bloody and
oftentimes hand to hand, bayonetae to bayo
net. There were prodigies of valor per
formed by officers and men of both sides,
and it is not likely that any of either party
who have taken part in this battle will
ever be induced to underrate the bravery
of their opponents. On our right wing
were the divisions of Generals Berry and
Birney, with Generals Whipple and Wil
liams to support. The Eleventh corps
had been placed where it was not likely
they wculd be attacked soon by the
enemy.
. Before sundown the battle commenced
lin a ravine. First there was a single vol
1 ley, and then the musketry was beard in
rapid discharges 'Agail-. General Berry's
'division proved its mettle, and Generals
Slocum and Sickles checked the enemy.
In an hour and a half General French was
ordered forward, and charging upon the
i rebels drove those which were before our
right flank down the road in disorder.
Berry's division frequently charged upon
the enemy, and Mott's brigade did the
same no less than fifteen times, while
Colonel Francine's regiment, the Seventh
New Jersey, took four stands of colors
and nearly many prisoners as there are
men in t regiment. Hancock, Couch,
Sickles, an all the other generals engaged,
fought their troops ably and gallantly.
a
When powder failed, the position was held
half an hour with the Incyonet before more
was obtained, and about ' o'clock orders
were given to fall back to the Chancellor
House and Fly's Ford. Nearly four more
hours the fight raged, and the loss was
considerable on both sides. Over 2,000
prisoners were taken, and the five rebel
divisions that fought mostly against Sickles
and Hancock were most terribly cut np.

The Gun with which Colonel Ells.

Lieutenant Frank E. Brownell, of •the
regular service, has presented to the
Bureau of Military Statistics the gun
which in the hands of Jackson, caused the
death of Colonel Ellsworth,of the Eleventh
New York Regiment, in the Marshall
Rouse, Alexandria, on the 23d of May,
1861. This exceedingly interesting me•
morial of the early period of the war, is a
double barrelled shotgun, and bears upon
its stock a stain of blood, and upon its
barrels the dents received as it was struck
down by Brownell, the moment after the
fatal charge was fired. Among the me•
mortals of the war that are being collected
by Colcnel Doty. few will possess more
historical interest than this weapon
Lieutenant Brownell has also furnished
a very minute account of the death of
Ellsworth, as he saw the event. This
differs, in certain details, from the state
ment originally publighed and generally
re ceived as history.

.4 ASIII NGTOS, May 7.---The following
appears in the National Intelligencer
of
this morning:
Official information received at the War
Department last evening authorizes us to
state that General Hooker, afier waiting
on the rain near Chancellersville on Tues
day fora renewal of the battle by the
enemy, recrossed the Rappahannock on
the evening of that day, influenced by pru
dential motives, springing doubtless ir
part from the great and sudden rise of the
Virginia rivers in consermense of the re
cent heavy rains threatening our sup
plies.
We do not learn that General Hooker
was apprised before making this move
ment, of the success which is alleged to
have attended the operations of General
Stoneman in breaking the rebel communi
cations with Richmond.
lf this fact had been known to him, as
suming it to be a fact, it may be doubted
whether Gen. Hooker would have deemed
it necessary to take a step which must
, tend to deprive him of some, 'at least, of
, the advantages resulting mom Gen. Stone.

GEN. HOOKER MUCH DISHEARTENED
NEW YORK, May 7.—The Tribune pub
lishes an extra with dates from the Army
of the Potomac to the Gth, which states
that the army had re -crossed the Rappa
hannock at United States and Ranks
Fords. The order for retreat was a sur
prise, as it Was believed to be the deter
mination to march out and attack the
rebels in front.
The crossing commenced at ten o'clock
on Tuesday night. At three o'clock on
Wednesday all the wagon and mule trains
and artillery had crossed, and the infantry
was crossing on two bridges at United
States Ford — General Couch& corps in
advance.
IThe retreat was covered by General
Meade's Fifth Corps. Lee's sharpshoot
lers picked off the artillery horses, and
any mounted cllicers seen. The rebel
batteries occupied all the advantageous
positions and fired rigorously upon Gen.
Hooker's -eamp,but disappeared as soon
as our batteries were opened on them.
At a consultation of the Corps com•
menders it was decided that the enemy
was too powerful, General Sedgewiek
failed to join General Rooker, and being,
hard pressed, crossed the Rappahannock
to prevent annihilation—his experiment
costing six thousand men:
General Sedgewick's repulse, added to
the weak counsels of General Hooker's
corps commanders, shook his confidence,
and in a fatal moment he gtive the order
to evacuate his strong position and his
fortified camp, and to retreat.
The army was not panic stricken but
greatly demoralized by this inglorious re
treat, There was no time from Friday
morning to Monday night bat what Hooker
could have attacked and defeated Lee's
army, but he lacked the ability to give the
order,
