ence in which the offer was made and accepted took
place between the American Consul n Genoa and

ed. ami the rank of M~ljJr-Geueral rendered to the
noble Italian.
BATTLE or BULL's RUx.-Gen. N'Dowcll. in his
official report, fixes the number Of our attacking
force, federal trooPs) ut 1900 men Of all arms.
The number Of the enemy he proves TO have been far
superior TO our own. He announces that our killed
were ID officers and 4G2 officers
and "priyate>-woundei 81 officers and @t7 non
commissioned officers and privates-many Of whom
were but slightly injured, and will ut once return to
duty.
The y. Y. TGIBUSE.-There IS new no more bitter
or interruptions enemy of the President and his
chosen advisers than the Tribune. Not the Charles
ton Mercury, not the Albany .ihaS, or New York
Wars, * more intense in it, hatred Of the chosen
standa-l-beire Of the Republican party. When the
loyal Democratic papers wish 10 put before their
readers something against the administration, more
severe than in the present state Of the country they
care % write, they select some paragraph from the
Republican Tribune. This seems strange, but j; i
caused and explained by the bitter enmify Of Greeley
towards the Secretary of State, MIR. Seward.
GENERAL MCCLELLAN.-The untiring energy of
General Mcclellan, the new Commander-in-ChIe Of
tho American forces. astOnishes those who know his
habits. He rises early and attends his office business
TILL two O'Clock. He then mounts his horse, and is
in his saddle TIL eight or nine O'Clock in the evening.
He wears a simple blue flannel blouse, and usually
wears no insignia o: his Office or position. He Is
plain and simple as a farmer. and Is without a spark
of preteusiou Of any sort. He rode fifteen miles uP
the Potomac, and back one day. This Is a specimen
Of his activity He has an eye to everything him
self, and therefore fully understands his position.
The BATTLE IL MIssoURL-The s.. Louis Republic
cgE of Aug. 18th says
The Pacific train arrived last night about ten
o'clock, bringing a number Of passengers from Rolla.
From one of these gentleman OF intelligence and
entire coolness-we learn many interesting facts in
connection with the great battle ut Springfield.
The retreat from Springfield was conducted III
good order. RumOrs Of an aPpreheuded attack had
been started, but they could not be traced to any
credible source. and were wholly unreliable.
The invading rebel troops were ut Springfield.
and there they were forced 10 remain, their whole
baggage train having been destroyed by the action
of Gen. Sigel in the first place, who fred it, they
themselves completing the work afterward rather
than suffer 1t to fall into the hands of TIE Union
forces.
The battle was n bloody one. According to the es-
innate of our informant, who derived his information
from a very reliable source, the Union troops suffer
ed q loss Of GOO killed and 900 wounded. Gen. 81
gel IS b bringing with him 200 Of the wounded, and the
remainder were left in the churches and other public
buildings at Springfield. On the side Of the rebels
the loss is put down at 1000 killed aud 5000 wound
ed. The artillery did tremendous havoc among them.
But the most sanguinary part of the fight was be-
tween q Mississippi Rssnent and the Kansas Regi-
Regiment already Published. look bad enough, but il
