The rebel gunboat captured by Maratonga

of submarine cable on board, beside balloon

The Fortress Monroe correspondent Of the
Philadelphia Press, under date Of the 9th,
says
never saw, and never saw any one who
did see, any other siege guns in the army Of
the Potomac than eight or ten long so pound
PARROTS. These were mounted in battery on
the extreme right Of the army, and all day,
Friday, June 27th. did splendid work in shel.

These guns were all saved | saw the whole
OF them late on Sunday afternoon, five miles
across the White Oak Swamp bridge, on
ground which the enemy did not hold Tor
forty eight hours afterwards. They were rap
idly proceeding towards the James rlver
Every regiment in the army, With scarcely
an exception, was engaged IN one or another

troops have the most perfect confidence in
their generals, and they all deserve il; Tor 4
Drawer set Of ctiicers never commanded an ar

would do even imposSibilities il he conmanded
them.
One of the aids Of Major General Mcclellan,
en- route Tor Washington, came down bv the
Nelly Baker on Thursday on business with
the War Department This gentleman states
that on Saturday he saw a. copy OF the Rich
mond Examiner, which ha0 lengthy article
on the battles that had ben fought. The ed
itor aments the heavy loss OF the ConfederaIes,
and seems quite despondpg. While they
claim that the rebels have driven our troops
back from their strong positions, they co not
even clam victory, and admit their loss TO
be upwards Of twenty thousand. The article
further states that the rebel Secretary Of War
is very strict on the press, and allows nothing
appertainlng 10 the eveats Of war 10 be pub
llsncd. H
ain proud to say that even the enemy do
not call our movement defeat, or their gain
of ground victory. To ITEM the capture of
their capital seems now more certain than ever,
and despite their Efforts they do not see how
1t can escape falling into our hands, although
they intend 10 resist to the bitter end.

Your achievements Of the last ten days have
Illuminated the valor and endurance OF the
American soldier. Attacked by superior for.
ces, and without the hope Of reiniorcemenls,
you have succeeded in changing your base of
operations by flank movement, always re.
garded as the most hazardous of military
cXpedients You have saved all your material,
all your trains, and all your guns, except u
lew lost in battle, taking in return guns and
colors from the enemy. Upon your march
you have been assailel day after day with
desperate fury by men of tue same race and
nation, skilluly masscd and led. Under every
disadvantage of number, and necessarily OF
position also, you have III every conflict beaten
back your fees with enormous slaughter.
Your conduct makes You among the celebrated
armies of history No one will new question
that each of you may always with pride say
II belonged to the Army Of the Potomac
! You have reached the new base complete il
organization and nnimpa'red in spirit.
The enemy may at any time attack you
we are prepared to meet them. ! have per
sona(ly established your lines; let them com,
and we will convert their repulse into "a tina

you with the resources Of great people.
On this our ma ions birthday, We declare tt
our foes, who are rebels against the pest lnte
rests Of mankind, that this army shall ente
the capital of the socalled Coniederacy tina
our National Constitution shall prevail, an,
that the Union, which can alone ensure inter

2sS &ritesshat "he most wonderful
stories are related of the braye Kear-
ney, who literally bears the character
Of q salamander. He was to be seen
with his one arm, and holding his bri-
die in his teeth, every where during
the hottest of the fight. At one time
he came very near to being taken at
White Oak Swamp. He was sur
rounded by no fewer than thirty Of
the rebels, but fairly cut his way
through them, them and asked
them if they thought lie looked like
the kind Of man to talIin their hands.
The men all love him for his undaunt-
ed bravery, but complain a little Of
his forgetting that everybody is not
made of cast,iron like himself"
The Louisville Democrat of the eth
ult, says: -
ave have been shown private let
ter from citizen of Memphis, to his
brother in this city, from which we
gather the following facts: He is ont
Of business and out Of money. Eight
weeks ago he had $500, but his family
took sick, and the most of it has gone
to the drug store. A prescription,
which would cost 50 cents in Louis
vile, cost $40 in Memphis. Quinine
pills Sl.50 each. Family living in
much the same proportion. Flour
$50 per barrel; hams 40 cents per lb;
beet so cents; spool cotton 50 cents !;
calicoes, 81 per yard cotton made in
the South 20 cents; pins1 cent each" "
Everything in Newben remains as
quiet as a country parson. The tenn
porary departure of Gen. Burnside,
has placed Gen. Foster in charge of
this Department. In the absence of
our able commander, this important
trust could not have been confded to
more able and competent LANDS than
Gen. Foster. Cool and clear headed,
as we have seen him when lcaden
rain and iron hail flew thick and fast,
oe cannot be otherwise than success
l'ul. His administrative powers are
equally acute as his military, and
tic quiet and security whicn now per-
yades our strongly guarded city, is to
be attributed to his sagacity, aided as
he is, by an efficient Provost Marshal.
We congratulate the Department of
North Carolina upon its uniform sue
cess in finding men to fill emergencies,
as they -mla,x.arise,
