THEY CONTINUE TO TURN Up.-The fol-
lowing paragraph from the Washington cor
respondencc of the Philadelphia Press shows
that the Potomac c9ntinues to yield its horrid
harvest of the fruits of Lee,burg:
"Twenty-onc bodies were recovered yes
terday from the river between Tennallytown,
above, and Fort Washington, below this city.
Among these were three officers, one of them
grade unknown, and the other Two Lieuten-
ants. One had some $50 in Ais pocket. a
revolver, two daguerreotypes, supposed to be
the likeness of himself end wife, and bun.
die of letters directed to Lieut.. Grays. The
other body had his pocket cut oft, and moth
ing was found to tell who he was, or lere
he belonged. One finger was cut off, and it
is thought that the rebels cut a ring from the
finger, and then threw the body in the river.
The captain of vessel, laden with potatoes,
from Maine, Informs me that he saw three
bodies floating past his vessel, when he was
discharsing cargo at Georgetown, one OF
which he recovered. Many of the bodies are
SO mutlated as to render recognition ilnpos-

The vessel has a peculiar shape such, that

passed. through one Of the finest houses in the
place. Captain S. then concluded TO rest fol
the night, intending 10 reopen his battery upon
them the next day, should they sill persist ir
firing upon our picksis. However, early on
Saturday morning, the Contederates opened on
our troops with their cannon. A messenger
was imm:di,t ly Dispatched to Sandy Hook
for reinforccments Fearing that the Fedora
troops would be strongly reinforced and destroy
the town, the citizens Immediately hoisted d
flag of truce, and all firing ceased. Captain
Wilson, OF the first Maryland regiment, then
crossed the river and had an interview with
the mayor of tho town, when it WAS finally
agreed that no more firing should take place
At that point by either party. 1t is thought
several of the Confederates were killed. No

TURNING NEGROES LOOSE.

X is only at the North that the idea Of " turn
ing negroes loose" excites a genuine terror.
A. the South, where they are seen loose u
every day, the spectacle alarms nobody. II
Mr.. Edward Everett, who misquoted French
lady's book, 10 illustrate the horrors Of the
thing, would live year in South Carolina, he
would never quote or misquote that boob
again.
Here, in the District of Columbia, we have
not merely slaves loose" but free negroes
loose" OF the last named class, we have
eleven thousands, who are seen every day 10
the streets, without chains or muzzlcs on, and
We have never heard Of even small children
being frightened about it. We even admit
them into our houses, aud are not un(requently
glad to entice them in, by the offer Of SO many
dollars per month. They are not poisonous, or
if they are, they do not bite.
Nor can we plume ourselves here in the
District Of Columbia upon any special courage
when we know that eighty three thousand free
negroes are loose" in Maryland, and tha
even little Delaware is able TO manage ninetcel
thousands Of them.
The New York Journal Of Commerce, in {
number now lying before us, talks about "M
Inherent barbarism Of turning loose on ,oome
and children q race 10 riual lie Srpoys ~ a
manner Of horror and raudge."
Northern editors may write In that way,
they choose, but they must excuse us Of th
South for laughing at them.
