The Panic.

The panic at Centeryille is not novelty
in warfare. The best disciplined troops Of
Europe have been guilty Of them far less
excusably than our men in Virginia. Such
was the famous fight of French and Sar-
dinian troops from Castiglione to Brescia,
the day after the great battle of SoIferino,
There tho successful soldiers were resting
from the fatigues of the fight, when five
Austrians who had been hidden in the
bushes came out into the open field to sur
render themselves. Instantly, the cry Of
''The Austriaus are comingp was raised
From that simple incident arose a panic
For seventeen miles, all the way to Brescia
the road was filed with a flying mass o.
horse and foot; wagons and ambulance'
were emptied Of their wounded, and every
body seemed beside themselves with terror
Some fifteen thousand men were engaged
in this panic, and the loss Of life from il
was very considerable.-Tribttns.

Confiseation Act,

The bill providing for the confscation of the
property of rebels found in arms against the
government was taken W IN the Senate on
Monday
Mr. Trumbull offered ON amendment provi-
ding that any person held to service or labor in
any way aiding rebellion against the govern
ment, shall be forfeited of his master.
The amendment was agreed to--yeas 80, nays
6. Messrs, Breckenridge, johnson of Missouri
Kennedy, Pearce, Polk and Powell voting in
the negative. The bill then passed.
We trust that the bill will at once pass the
House, and that the property of the secession-
lists will be appropriated to the use of the Gov
ernment as fast as it can be obtained. And as
the rebels have defed the power of the Govern
ment,i is nothing more than right that their
slaves should be taken from them and emanci-
pated. We are satisfied that this is the only
correct course that can be pursued, and that
twill meet the appreciation of nine-tenths Of
the people.

Aid and Comfort.

The Neio York Tribune is now giving more
aid and comfort to the rebels, than they can de-
rive from all the editors in the land of Dixie
For many weeks past it has kept up a steady
fire of sneers, inuendos and insnuations against
the wisdom, courage and patriotism of the
President and his advisers. 1t has urged an
instant advance of our troops into Virginia re-
gardless of the necessary preparation, And
now when the advance has been made and has
resulted disastrously, it sezes on the defeat to
demand in the name of the people change o.
the Cabinet officers. In the name of the peo.
pie indeed What right has the Tribune tc
speak for the people? The Tribune has indeed
been power in the land, but it will not long b,
such if it perseveres in its present course o
folly and wickedness.
Suppose the wishes of the Tribune were re
garded and the present advisers of the Presi
dent all removed, itwould exert a worse infu
ence on the nation, and do more to encourage
the South than ten battles lost by the fedora
troops. Such change would be regarded as
virtual confession of Judgment, and would be 5,
taken by all foreign powers Nothing has ye
occurred to shake the confidence of the nation
in Mr.. Lincoln or his Cabinet. And if the ZFi
6une wishes to write itself out of its good name
out of its influence, nay out of its very exist
,ence, it has only to pursue its present course
The country is not blind to the motives whcl
prompt the assault upon the Administration
The Tribune dislikes Mr. Cameron, but it hate
Mr. Seward with hatred of ten thousand
horse power There ought to be and there viii
be a universal and indignant protest against thi,
madness, which shall penetrate even the impu
dence and arrogance Of the Tribune. The voic,
of the country calls us to stand by the flag, anC
70 stand with equal frmness by the faithful
men who are in the high places Of power anC
trust. The man that thus jeopardizes the I'm
ion cause to crafty his personal animostie
and hatreds, will receive the just execrations O
an indignant and injured people.

Important From Cumberland Gap.

A citizen of Western Virginia, en- route
for Indiana with his family, assures the
Harrodsburg Press of Saturday that he
passed through Cumberland Gap few days
since, and found 800 troops of Tennesseans
and Kentuckians, with battery of six field
pieces entrcnched two miles this side Of the
line, while 400 troops are encamped on the
Tennessee side. He says that he was in
formed at the Gap that these troops would
soon take up the line of march for Sumerset
and Grab Orchard, and are only waiting TO
capture Andy johnson before they move.
Great excitement exists in that portion Of
the State in consequence of the report

The Ist and ID Ohio.

Henry J. Raymond, of the New York
Times, in his dispatches from the field of
battle says: -..-.
The Ohio regiments were pushed for
ward with the Second New York, and ran
upon masked battery of four guns, which
killed quite a number of both. Of the lat
ter, Michael McCarty, Sergeant of Compa-
ny H, was wounded, and afterwards was re-
ported dead. Lieut. Dempsey received a
slight wound. Some twenty or thirty of
the Ohio regiment broke and run, but the
rest stood firm, as did the Second New
York.
Carlisle's battery was brought to the
front on the right, and soon drove tho reb-
els out of the masked battery.

A private letter written to us from Paris,

"Yancey and Rost have been here, and
had private interview with the Minister oi

that he received them for the purpose Of

we're fred upon by batteries concealed in
the bushes by the road side, and Col. Sharp
severely wounded in the back. Their horse

treaties that their lives might be spared,
they were both taken out and hung Col.

The RETREAT Of our Army.

Very full reports Of the retreat Of our army
from Manassas win be found in to-day's JoURS-
AL. The first reports were greatly exaggerated,
and carried the impression that the army had
been nearly annihilated, and that the survivors
precipitately fed back to Washington, throwing
away their guns, knapsacks canteens, DC, to
facilitate their flight. Later dispatches give
much more favorable report It's now stated
that our loss win not exceed 500 killed and as
many wounded and taken prisoners On the
testimony Of the rebels themselves, their loss
was not less than 2,O0O and the Memphis pa.
pers place it at 5000
The panic extended to only about one third
OF the army, and was caused, IT seems by th'
best accounts that can be had at this time by
the ammunition wagons Of the artillery rushing
at full speed back to the for supplies Of am.
munition. The teamsters and civilians sup.
posed that the advance Of the army were re-
treating and Immediately fed, the panic exten-
ding tethe troops in the rear and general
stampeds Of the centre took place, but the night
