Rebel Refinement.

A correspondent Of the st. Louis Dem
ocyaf, writing from Helena, Arkansas,
gives a description Of highly civilized
establishment in that State called
Whipping House, in which refractory
darklcs are put through in a style emf
nently creditable TO the cornerstone of
the Confederacy. lie writes:
An institution Of this kind is located
at Mayena, twenty-five miles from this
place, on the st. Francis road. The
whipping house," as it is called, is about
six feet in diameter and ten feet high; a
shaft runs from bottom TO top; on the
upper end is a small oog-whcel, running
horizontally, into which large wheel
works. The propelling power is robust
negro.
Attached TO the shaft an leather thongs
or straps about two inches wide. Lashes
are inserted in these, and when the shaft
is in motion they reach to the walls. The
straps extend from the feet to the neck.
Near by is the office and stripping house.
Here the victims are Invested of their
clothing, and five and six are placed in
the torture room; the door being fasten-
ed-the negro on top hold Of the crank

Around whirls the shaft at the rate of
two hundred revolutions per minute, with
straps and lashes extended, bruising and

ands of blows extending from head to
feet Fifteen minutes is considered by

Our Gallant Dead and Wounded.

The late battles in Maryland have
been terribly destructive. to the officers
of the army. In CHANGING at the mel
ancholy list of casualties, we find
among the dead and wounded dozens
of brilliant soldiers whose names,
in fields Of strife, have become as famil-
liar ashousehold words-Reno. who won
fame at Roanoke Island and Newbern:
Sedgwick, who saved the day at Fair
Oaks; Hooker ("Fighting Joe " who is
always fighting and always whipping
somebody; Gen. j. q. Richardson, or
Fighting Dick, whose fame was estab-
lished at Fair Oaks in the Sunday battle
the veteran Mansfield; Dana, Weber, the
dashing Meaghcr, Duryea, and Hart
suh, whose ability and gallantry were so
conspicuous at CarnifaX Ferry; all of the
Generals. Among regimental officers we
find Colonel Kinks Of the 10Th MassaChu-
sets, who skirmished at Yorktown, took
part in the battle of West Point, fought
calamity in the battle of Fair Oaks, ac-
quilted himself nobly at the Fair Oaks
Farm affair, went through the battles
from the front of Richmond to James
river to get an honorable discharge at
last in Maryland; Colonel Wistar, Of the
lst California whose right arm was shat
tered at Balls Bluff, and who is again
victim; Kingsbury Chief of Ordnance
on McClcllan's staff (mortally woundcd) /;
Major W. d. Sedgwick, Adiutant Gene
raj on Major General Sedgwick's staR.
who fought with his commander at Fair
Oaks, Orchard and Savage Stations,
| Nelson's Farm and Malvern Hill Colo
mel Coleman, of the llth Ohio; and our
| gallant Hays. 1t is fearful record, and
we fear ii is not yet complete.
In the casualty list published ycstcr-
day, the name of Major General Holman
appears among the MORALLY wounded
There is a Major Rodman, but no Major
| General of that name. In this connec-
ton, we are impelled to remark that the
I conspicuous uniforms of our officers have
as much to do with our severe losses as
their distinguished courage. Their shout
der straps and sashes make them splcn-
did targets for the rebel sharpshooters
Our officers, however, consider il dishon.
orable TO 30 into battle without theil
usual insignia. The rebels are net 81
squeamish; they do not hesitate 10 SAY
that they are careful TO remove all CON
Epicuous marks from their dress. They
are generally well known TO their owl
men, SO that the necessity for artGcia
distinction is obyiatcd. Some rebel off
GERS who were captured ON the Peninsula
stated that they had agreed TO dismoun
whenever it was possible, upon goin,
into action, and many of them were take
while commanding on foot. Genera
officers cannot dispense with their horses
but we see no good reason why the
should go into action in uniform, or VIII,
rcgimcntal officers should mount 10 &
into the field.

The intense excitement Of the last few
days has given place 10 great rejoicing, al
the immediate proximity of seven .diyis-
ions OF Buell's army, which are coming
up from the direction Of Salt river.
The enemy seem 20 be concentrating at
Bloomfield. About 1900 Of them were
seen this morning beyond Salt river, on
the Bardstown road
Louisvillv is now considered entirely
safe, though a fight may occur in our Vi
cinity before the arrival OF Buells divis-
ions. Nobody has any fears respecting
the result.
General Nelson is confident he can hold
this position against any odds until the
approaching acknowledgements shall
arrive.
Colonel W. II. Polk, Of Critenden's
staff; Captain Holeliizell, Of Alexander
McCooks staff, and Lieut.. Rockwell, OF
Buell's staff, have just arrived.
No portion of the rebel forces are
known 10 be this side Of Bardstown.
On the 18th our cavalry captured $50
rebels at Glasgow On the 18th three
regiments of cavalry, under McCook,
drove 5000 rebel cavalry out of Mum
fordville without any Federal loss. The
rebels lost a Colonel and Lieutenant Colo
mel Our forces had slight slIirmishcs all
along the road litherwards, capturing
numerous small squads Of rebels.
Col Ed. McCook, Of the second Indi-
ana cavalry, commanding a brigade of
the Second Indiana, First and Third
Kentucky, was at Elizabethtown this
morning.
On their way up At several points, he
killed lorly-seyen rebels, in aggreg ate,
and in conjunction with Kennels COM
mand took 1900 rebel prisoners and
twenty four wagon load Of provisions.

On Tuesday night five guenillas, five
miles out on the franklin road, seized a

Of using him as a guide. The negro (con-
trary to the constiutton) ran of during

reached the pickets and told them OF the

The Soldiers Encumbrances.

When our Northern volunteers go to
the war they fancy that they leave all
their little cncumbranccs behind them.
They never dream for a moment that the
multifarious articles that compose their
kit-the wooden and India rubber blan-
kcts, the two pairs Of shoes, the changes
of under clothing, the eating and drink
ing utensils &c.--can ever come to be
classed in this category. And yet but
too many of them have found 10 their
cost that they might as well have gone
into the field with one Of their little ones
under each arm, as TO try and make n
campaign under o Southern sun with such
a load II is impossible that any SOL
der, no matter how great his strength,
can march or fight we'll thus encountered.
The weight Of baggage borne by the
United States volunteer is twice that car
ried by the English, French, or Russian
soldier, and this weight is enhanced by
the clumsy manner in which it is packed
on his back If our troops are ever to be
effective in the field, at least half this
amount of luggage must be discarded
The New York Herald says that General
Mcclellan has sent sixty wagon loads Of
knapsacks back to Washington as a be.
