ing all the food they could find. The military

will be gratifying to persons having
friends ,wounded in the recent battles of the
Wilderness to learn that arrangements have
been made that the ' wounded who are , able,to
beg so- treated, are to receive a furlough° for
thirty-days, while the . great part of those who
are fit to travel will be forwarded to the hOspi
tals of their respective States. ,
---The Richmond ,papers, in referring to i the_
death of Gen. Jeb. Stuart, speak of his lose' to
the Confederacy as equal to that of Stonewall
Jackson. In the same engagement in which
Stuart was killed, they lost Col. H. Clay Pate,
of Karlin Border Ruffian notoriety, and Li&rt.
Col. Robert Randolph—both killed outright
The Rebel Gen. Gordon was also severely wound
ed. :
—The Richmond Eiaminer of May.l2, says:
—" The enemy have concentrated. in Virginia.
If Neaten here he is beaten everywhere. If he
ti i"ns here he wins everything. The war might
continue, the Confederacy might survive, but
if Virginia is lost, the present Confederate
organization will not probably survive. Hea
ven and earth now calls on the Government
to bring up all the troops at its command. •
House of Representatives, recently,
by a vote' of 72 in tLe affirmative to 45 nega
tives; or nearly two to one, adopted the joint
resolution to drop from the rolls of the army
unemployed general officers. Major Generals
George B. M'Clellan and John C. Fremont are
most prominent among those who will be af
cted by the act. It will result in an annual
saving of something more than $200,000 to the
country.
—The column under Sigel, now definitely as
certained not to have exceeded six thousand,
was driven"back on Sunday week by a force of
rebel infantry under Gene. Echols and Irnhoden.
Sigel lost five pieces of artillery, i _6oo killed. and
-wounded, and, 500 prisoners. He brought off
his wounded and preserved his trains intact,
and is now at Strasburg, a strong defensive po
sition. We do 'nOtAbink - he can be further mo
lested.- The r4elTloss is not given. .
_
—The'Charlesten Mercury gives an affecting
account of the killing of Miss Pickens, daughter
of the rebel ex-Governor Pickens. She was
about to be married, and the wedding party
had assembled at the house of Gen. Bonham,
when a shell from the Union forces penetrated
the house and wounded the bride so that she
died soon afterward. The marriage ceremony
was completed as she lay dying on the floor.—
Lieutenant De Rochelle was the•bridegroom.
—A friend, who has lately been at Freder
icksburg;-tells the: following ineideut, related
to pith there.. by a wonnded staff officer : The
Sixty-second New , York had been engaged and
under fire all day 'in one of the recent battles
and Gen. Getty gave orders to have them re
lieved and sent to the rear to rest. A sergeant,
who heard the order given, and happened to be
near the General, touched his cap and said ‘f If
it's all the same to you, General, we'd rather
stay where we are."
—An official report of the killed and wounded
'in the late battles, present-the- facti that 4,000
men were, killed, about 25.009 wounded, and
5,000 missing—the latter includes stragglers and
prisoners. It is also stated, on the same accu
rate authority, that not more than ten per cent.
have been dangerously wounded, and that a
large number will be ready for the field within ,
the next two weeks. This statement should go
far to soothe the anxiety of thousands who are
interested in the fate and condition of those
brave defenders of the flag. •
—The headquarters of the Lieutenant Gen
eral and General Meade are always establiked
near each other, and in action the two Generals
and Staffs are always together. Gen. Meade
retains the immediate command of the army,
while Gen. Grant exorcises a general supervi
sion over the movements over , the whole field
In regard to the operations of this army the
two Generals are constantly in consultation,
and it would be hard, I think, to say how much
his own practical share in the actual command
is. Perhaps I may say :that Gen. Grant indi
cates the strategic moves and combinations,
while Gen. Meade takes charge of their tech
nical execution.
—The more sagacious military men in Wash
ington are expecting asix weeks' campaign in
Virginia before Richmond falls. Gen. Grant
will not throw his troop) needlessly against the
intrenchments of the. rebel capital, even if he
should have the opportunity, which is not ex.
pected at present. ='-General Grant has aver
countenanced the announcements of " great
victories" in the newspapers; on the contrary
ho has continually said that still harder fighting
OM
was to come, and that the rebel army has not
yet been beaten. He also said te-an eager and
enthusiastic friend, who was inquiring in refe
renc,e to the prospect of-capturing Richmond;
and especially in respect to the time when the I
rebel 'capital ynight be expected to fall intoOnT
hands: "I shall be quite readyto compromise
on the Fourth of Jiily!"
—The Richmond Examiner of May 14 says
" The funeral of the much lamented andsbrave
Gen. Stuart took place yesterday afternoon, at
5 o'clock, from St. James' Church, corner of
Marshall and Fifth streets. At ttre appofnfee
hour the cortege appeared in front of the church.
and the metallic coffin containing the remains of
the noble soldier whose now silent voice had so
often startled the enemy with his stirring battle
cry was tarried down the center aisle and placed
before the altar. Wreaths and crosses of ever
green, interwoven with delicate lilies of the
valley, laurel and other flowers of purest white,
decked the coffin. The pall-bearers were Gen. ,
Bragg, Maj. Gen. M'Cown, Gen. Chilton, Brig.
Gen. Lawton, Com.' Forrest; Capt. Lee of the
navy, and Gen. George W..Eandelph; formerly
Secretary of. War. The, scene was sad and
'impressive. President Davis sat near the front,.
with a look of grief upon his careworn cams.
His Cabinet officers were gathered around,4vhile
rin either side were the Senators arld-Represen
tatives of the Confederate Congresi."

—The Union men of Green county have nom
inated Hon. Geo. V.°Lawyenee for Congress,
Zadoc Gordon for Assembly, and Thomas. Hill
for Sheriff.
—Aaron Mull, Esq., the Union Presidential
Elector appointed for the Eighth Congressional
District, having died, the name 41f,Wtri. Taylor,
of Berks County, has been substituted to fill the
vacancy. -This is an excellent-choice and can
not fail to be entirely satisfactory to the Union
men throughout the county.
—The advioes from New Orleans say, that
the Louisiana State- Convention had amended
the Constitution by a vote of 70 to 16 that sla
very , and involuntary servitude eicept for the
punishment of crime, are hereby. forever abet:
ished and prohibited in the State, and that the
Legislature shall make no laW recognizing the

—The 15th Congressional district, composed
of the ; Counties of Cumberland, Perry and York,"
has elected Hon. Thos. E. Cochran, of York;
and Levi Kauffman, of Cumberland, delegates
to the National Convention. David E. Small,
of‘ York, and A. K. Rheem, of Cumberland,
county, were elected as alternates. The dele
gates were instructed to vote for the re-nomin
ation of Abraham Lincoln.
. —TheUnion men. of little Blair have nomi
nated Hon. Louis. W. Hall for Congress, S. R.
M'onne for Senater, Joseph G. Aillum for As
sembly, Jos. Robison for Sheriff, A. S. Morrow
for Prothonotary and David Stitleler for Trea
surer. Mr. Hall has been nominated - afteratn
exciting contest over his old preceptor, Hon.
Samuel Calvin, who was elected to Congressi in
1848, and his triumph was doubtless materially
aided by the bitter personal warfare waged
against him by some of the indiscreet friends of
his competitor. He has twice polled the strong
-est_vote of his ticket in the county, and if nom
inated by the district may be 'safely counted as
a "through nag."
