Fights between Scouting Parties---3OO
Federalist Killed.

F6Q6ral1SC hlll6Q.
RICHMOND, June 11.-On Saturday,
a scouting party of Confederates, near
Hampton, encountered scouting parties
of Federals, numbering about two hun
dred. The Federals mistaking the Con-
federates, claimed to be friends, and
said they belonged to the Second York
Regiment. The Confederates fired on
them, killing ten, wounding twelve or
fifteen and taking one prisoner. The
Confederates were uninjured, although
the Federals returned fire. Both sides
withdrew. On Monday, the Federals,
about four thousand strong, attacked
the entrenched Confederatcs, number
ing about one thousand, at Bethel
Church. The Confederates repulsed
the Federals three times. The Fede-
rails then withdrew, and the Confede-
rates held their position until this morn
ing, when they withdrew. The Fede-
rails lost about three A,md,ed. The
Confederates had one man killed and
five or six wounded. The entrench-
ments at the church were very favora-
BILE to the Confcderatcs.
From private dispatch we learn
that the Confederate troops engaged
were one North Carolina Regiment,
one Battalion Howitzers from Virgin
ia, and one other regiment, all comman-
ded by Col. Magruder, and that Fed
eral Colonel commanding was killed.

THE ExpENsE.-The expence of the war
is beginning to be felt. Already the cost
has reached the handsome aggregate of tuo
millions dollars per day, ard is still tend
ing upward rapidly. On the last pay day at
the Brooklyn navy yard there was not a
dollar in hand to meet the disbursements.
The New York Tribune says:
"To successfully wage war, money is a
prime necessity. Mr.. Chase has been a.
buudantly cheered by the liberality with
which the people Of the country have re-
sponded to his call, but, like prudent man,
he has begun to count the cost of that
which the Government has undertaken.
"The expenses of the War Department
are enormous, and with view to re-estab-
lish the army on more econonIical basis,
and of pruning extravagances, the advice
of eminent military men, now here by invita-
tion, is being considerd."

COOP S1GNs.-In the State of New
York there are fifty papers opposed to

In Ohio there are now fourteen papers

will come, observes the Circleville o.
hio) Watchman "when there will be
more. And the time will come when
we shall hear those who have hurrahed
loudest for civil war, declare that they
always opposed it" We believe your
prediction will prove true, Mr.. Watch
man, and may God speed the day, as
we believe more unrighteous war was
never waged against any people.
ROUGH ON PARsoN BRowNLow.-
James Il. Lilies writes very scorching
letter to Parson Brownlow, through the
Brandon Republican, in which he says:
"You profess to be Christian, and

not trouble yourself to make the choice,
for both will be forced upon you. Ten

A LIEUTENANT "DRUMMED OUT."-A
court martial was assembled at Fort Warren.
near Boston. on Monday. for the purpose oi
trying Lieut.. John Abbot, OF company A,
Fletcher Webster's regiment, accused Of
using seditious language. Brigadier Gen.
eral Pierce presided, and Adjutant General
Schouder acted as judge advocate. 1t ap,
peared in evidence that Abbott had made
use of such expressions as these: Il would
like to see secession flag wave over all
the New England States. I would like to
see the Massachusetts, troops get whipping
from the Southerners; it is just what they
deserve. The Southerners are right" eli
1 thought the war was to set the slaves free,
I would sheath my sword"
Abbot denied all the charges, but the
court adjudged him guilty, and he was seu-
fenced to be stripped of his uniform and
drummed out of the garrison. Preparations
were at once made to iufict the punishment
so often done in military camps. He was
stripped of his uniform and made to don the
citizens dress. In the meantime, the two
regiments, (Col. Clark's and Col. Web
ster's) stationed at the fort, were made to
form three sides of square-the brigade
officers occupying positions on the side Of
the sallyport. All being in readiness, Lieu
tenant Abbot was led forth with guard on
either side, and to the tune of the "Rogue's
March" be was escorted up and down the
line of the brigade. Going once up the
centre and back, his march was continued
out of the sallyport, along the street on the
outside and down the wharf. There tug
boat was waiting, and to it the disgraced
officer was consigned, and conveyed to Bos
ton.

RETURN OF THE SEVENTH REGIMENT
TO NEW YoRK.-The New York Herald,
in its account of the return of the Seventh
Regiment from the seat of war, gives
glimpse of the under currents of opinion in
Gotham. 1t says:
There was spirit of discomfort apparant
in almost every direction, especially among
the Irish element of the population, who
seem to think it very hard that so many of
their friends should be left to fight the bat
ties of the country, while an exception has
been made in favor of the Seventh. These
opinions were very freely exchanged all
day; and as the time for the arrival Of the
regiment drew nearer, the partizans became
more numerous, and some rather active de-
bates ensued, which, of course, are not
worth passing record. Some threats at
Kissing and stoning the men were made,
and persons even said that large purchases
of eggs had been made for the purpose Of
assault. The volunteers, much to their dis
credit, had provided themselves with pota
toes, apples, bits of wood and other missiles,
with the expressed intention of pelting the
men of the Seventh-a threat they might
have carried out but for the promptitude
of Captain Green, who is always on duty at
the Park Barracks, and other officers, who
gave instructions to the guard to fire at the
first nau caught throwing missile. This
decisive couduc: caused the men to back
down; but nothing could prevent them
from Missing and groauing at the Seventh,
and calling out in vile language to some OF
the soldiers who passed nearest their quar-
ters. Rowdies Kissed the regimcatin Full
