TERRIBLE REBEL Loss AT BULL's Run AND An
AssAs.-A Baltimore letter in the Philadelphia
Enquirer has the following news from Rich
mond
lam told, on good authority, that merchant
in this city has received late letter from his
correspondent in Richmond, which significantly
indicates that the people of that city are heartily
sick, not only of secession and its sorrrowful
fruits. but Of the war II is also asserted. If
Presidents Davis aud his army do not meet with
better success than they did at BULBS Run and
Manassas, a counter feeling will manifest itself
among the people by no means encouraging to
the Rebel President and the cause he has es.
poused. The slaughter of the Confederates il
represented as terrible--much greater than inti-
mated by accounts in the newspapers.
The truth regarding the killed and wounded
is suppressed, as far as there is any possibility Of
doing so. When the whole story of Manassas is
told, if ever. it will prove, astounding. Great
distress prevails among the Southern troops
They are not only destitute Of comforts, but of
the absolute necessities Of subsistence Clothes.
shoes, food, war munitions, alt are lamentably
scarce, as is money also. n i,,,s s,g.f,, :,
ANEcporE OF FloYD An anecdote is told US
of Floyd, the great Virginia thief, which we have
not seen in print. A few years since, gentle
man residing in Richmond Va, gave a large
dinner party to some distinguished men, among
whom Was Floyd. then rising man. but whose
personal appearance indicated neither mental
nor physical superiority, be being pursy, dark
complexioned man, with crispy, wiry hair
Among the distinguished guests were two Indian
chiefs, returning from visit to their "Great
Father" the President magnificent specimens
Of their race. Floyd, thihking to compliment
them, and make them at their ease, told them,
| in condescending manner, that he could boast
Of Indian blood in his veins, being descendant
of Pocahontas. 0ne of the chiefs, drawing
himself up msjesticaly and .disdainfully, and
with look Of contempt upon his noble coun
tenance. said in broken English, "Ughl moi mol
Mqur! mgurln The confusion and dismay Of
Floyd was complete, and It required all the
boasted politeness Of Richmond society to keep
the other guests from exploding With laughter

Hannibal. No. Aug. /. 1855,


G. DUNHAH-It may not be uninteresting to
you to bear from the above named city in regard
to the present state Of affairs.
There is at this time of writing some consd.
erabie excitement, and it is my opinion that we
will have more trouble soon than we have yet
had. Quite number Of young men of the Sc
cession party have been for some time collecting
in this neighborhood with the intention Of COM
mitting depredations on the Union men. On
last night about IL o'clock they entered Mr.
Gentry's house, and took him with great vio-
lence, dragging him into the road, and giving
him such treatment as none but rebels are capa-
BILE of giving. Notwithstanding Mr. Gentry is
an old man and not able to stand much fatigue
they would not permit him to get his horse or
furnish him with one, but compelled him TO take
up his march on foot, surrounded with the band
of the most bitter rebels.
Mr.. Gentry is an old citizen of this State, and
a man Of fine character and good reputation
He is the President of the Hannibal and 81.
Joseph Railroad. He is strong Union man,
. friend TO humanity and to bis country.
write this in bis house, amidst bis troubled
family. We have no idea where they have
taken him, or what charge they have against
him. Being man Of few words and always At
tending 70 bis own busness, their conduct ID
unaccountable Scouts have been sent out in
pursuit Of him, ana We expect trouble here
from secessionists. They have taken fresh
start within few days.

Treas0n OF Government Omcc.holders
i' -@4 Exposed, fH tf 81 s}a


Mr.. Potter, from the Select Committee on the
Loyalty of Government Employees, on Wednes-
day last made the following special report:
! The Committee appointed to investigate, az.
certain, and report TO the House the number of
persons, with the names thereof, now employed
in the several departments of the Government
of the United States, and who have refused to
take the oath to support the Constitution of the
United States, beg leave to report in part to the
House as follows:a ,i,.,, -. -
The committee have given to the inquiry all
the attention which their limited time and the
pressure OF other duties would allow, but have
as yet scarcely advanced beyond its threshold.
They have, however, examined large number
Of witnesses, and have no hesitation in saying
that the testimony adduced has been Of such
character as to fully justify the action Of the
House in the premises, and to show the impera-
tive necessity of the investigation which has
been instituted
The Committee, though prepared to believe
that the popular conviction in respect to the
general unsoundness of the Departments in the
particular referred to was well founded, vet must
confess that they have been astonished at the
number and aggravation of the well anthenti.
Gated cases of disloyalty to the Government,
which, in the course of their Investigations, have
been brought to their notice. 1,6..s+,
That persons should be thus disloyal to Gov
ernment which has confded to them its sacred
trusts, in whose employ they have found support
for themselves and families, and to which their
fidelity is due by every consideration which ap.
peals not only to the honor Of the public officer,
but to the honesty Of the man, and that such
persons should be retained in Office, and in some
instances retained where the facts have been
brought to the knowledge of those who have the
power of removal, must be the occasion Of pro-
found grief and humiliation to every patriotic
and loyal heart. And their retention in Office,
especially in the present critical condition of the
Government, can be justified by no assumed ne.
cessity or convenience Of the public service, and
| may well excite the honest indignation of the
country. The Committee, while prepared to
make these general statements, which are con.
Cured in by every member of the Committee,
| find that it win be impossible to compete the
| work assigned to them, and make a report there.
Of within the probable limits of the present ses-
| sion. They therefore, ask leave to sit during
the recess Of Congress, and ask the adoption Of
the accompanying report ~" s
JOHN +. PoTrER, Chairman.
The resolutions giving the Committee leave to
sit during the recess of Congress, with the same
powers as heretofore, were adopted.

the verdurous LEAKAGE of beautiful climbing
rose, whose dark color was studded with the
brilliant clusters of roses whith cleaned all over
it. We had just been reading about the depths Of
snow which they have " at home" and we could
not help contrasting the sight with what we know
must be in the "Old country" And yet. as we
turned our eyes away from the display Of flushing
beauty, they fell upon the distant Nevadas
covered with snow, just then tinted by the setting
sun, their amber hues melting into the juicy
tones Of the mellow sky beyond. January and
June. How sharp the contrast, and how few
climes there are where the varied temperatures
are crowded into such close neighborhood.-
