GEN. BANKS REPoRT.-We publish
this morning the official report of Gen.
Banks, relative to the retreat of his force
from Strasburg to Winchester, on the
oath and 2jth Of May, by which it will
be seen that his loss of men and material
has not been so great as some have APP
pretended. He states the killed at So,
the wounded at 1855. and the missing at
I'll; but it is known that the number
under the missing head has been consid-
erably reduced since the date Of the re-
port. All toe guns were saved, and out
Of 500 wagons only So were lost, and
these, with but few exceptions, were
burned on The road.-B. Journal.

MOVEMENTS OF HALLECK AND
BEAUREGARD.-A correspondent of a
Chicago paper, who writes as if he was
better informed than many others, says,
in q letter from Corinth
Gen. Halleck will now doubtless take
possession of the Mobile and Ohio Rail-
road, from Columbus to Corinth. l
understand it is to be guarded along its
whole length by the brigade of Gen.
Quimby Of Kansas, who is now at Cairo,
for that purpose. He will also probably
cease to use the Tennessee river to any
very great extent, and will remove the
depots of provisions farther up the stream
in close proximity to the Memphis and
Charleston Railroad, which will also be
taken possession Of.
Beauregard, if he has not done so al
ready, will be compelled to retire 20 his
last line of defense, the Vicksburg and
Savannah railroad, running through the
middle of Mississippi, Tennessee, and
Georgia to Savannah. The base of this
line will be Mobile. And in this con-
nection I learn that the operator in the
Corinth telegraph office stated that Beau
regard had dispatched orders 10 defend
Mobile at all hazards, as it was to be
made point of great strategical imPor-
tance.

THE misunderstanding goes on
rather slowly, though faster, We should
judge, than in many other counties.-
There nre now some over forty men en-
listed. They are by far the smartesi
and cleanest looking set OF men that we
have seen in any company since the first
regiment was raised. They are the
greater pant of them temperate men, and
none OF them manifest a disposition for
rowdyism.

The Coming Contest at Richmond


This is evidently just the time for an
active display Of newspaper generaship.
We observe all sorts of strategic advice
rendered to the Government, and many
suggestions thrown out for the benefit of
Gen. Mcclellan. Not having been in
vted to the council of war, we shall not
presume to submit any plans of our own
or any alteration of the plans of others.
At the same time, the attention of the
whole loyal community must be power
fully drawn at this time toward the man
iiest preparations for the coming struggle
at Richmond. 0ftentimes i. has seemed
doubtful whether the rebels would make
any stand there at all, and it is probable
that their own intentions in the matter
have varied with the progress of the
campaign on the peninsula. But now,
all the considerations of policy would
seem to have united with the impulse Of
desperation, to hazard the whole fate of
the rebellion on the defense Of the cap
ital.
And this we regard as desirable rather
than otherwise. 1t is surely better to
decide, on one day in June, at Richmond,
that which would otherwise require q
whole summer campaign under the burn
ing sun Of Carolina and Alabama. The
only question is, whether we are now as
well prepared TO contest the decision
BY the battle Of Fair Oaks we lost in
round numbers 6000 men-that is, Gen.
McClelan's army has been reduced seven
regiments by the affair. Perhaps the
practical loss may be greater on account
of the disorganizing effect on the regi-
mauts which suffered the most. But on
the other band the rebels admit loss Of
5000, or about thirteen Of their regiments
with a much more serious deprivation of
officers than fell to our lot The battle
Of Fair Oaks, therefore, in spite of the
terrible falsehoods respecting it, attrib-
uted to Jeff. Davis, was a disastrous
rebel defeat Everything about it,
except the single accidental advantage OF
the attack, which can never occur again,
! is encouraging to the Union troops and
Indicative of a coming victory.
/ But when we come to the matter of
|reiuforc-meuts on the respective sides,
the case is not so clear, We do not put
any confidence in the assertion Of a rebel
clergyman that they have anything like
/ 100000 well disciplined men in Rich

At Lexington.

Lexington, DefOfe our natlonal troubles
began, was indeed fourishing city, 1t
contained population of five thous-
and, and being on favorable site, it be-
came the general medium Of shipping,
both up and down the Missouri River
On the 10Th of April, 1861, just eighty
six years after the first blood shed in the
Revolution, the people held meeting
and passed resolutions that Missouri
ought to secede from the Union, and that
she should have the aid of Lafayette
County. Accordingly in this county the
secession egg was laid, and the old hen
commenced to set. Troops were fast
sent into Missouri, and among the rest
the gallant twenty-iilth Illinois, under
Col. Mulligan, known as the Irish Bril-
gade." In the first days of September
lie made forced march from Jefferson
City. Here he threw up bis breastworks
and when Price and bis thtrty-fve thous-
and men marched in to attack him, his
force consisted of his own regiment;
18th Missouri, Col White; twenty-ffh
Missouri, Col. Everett Peabody, Chilled
at Pittsburgh and the Illinois first cay
airy, Col Marshall-in all about twenty
seven hundred men. Prices army com
pleteIy filled up the town, and when he
commenced lis cannonading, Col. Null
lgan threw balls, shell and grape shot all
over town with such rapidity that he
drove them all away. Three days after
they renewed the attack, and for three
days and nights ere the Federals kept
from the river-and thus the surrender

horses and mules, some died from thirst,
but most were killed by the enemy. The
havoc the Federal guns worked in town
is truly astonishing, Col. Mu!.ican
thought he would give them a few scat

The officer stopped down and turned him
over.
Grand Dieur he cried, what legs for dog,
Ell -
And no wonder he did so. The hind legs OF
the animal were booted, and had every appear
ance Of the pedal extremities OF the genus man.
| But all doubts were removed very quickly, Tor
as the officer turned the body again,a deep groan
came up, and the words, God take me J IN the
Prussian tongue, followed.
| 'Diable! here's an adventurer uttered the
officer, and made Pierre hold the lantern while
! he ripped open enough of the dogs skin to find
the face. But they concluded not to stop there
to investigate SO they formed litter by crossing
their musketg, and lifting the strange animal
upon it, they proceeded on their way. When
they reached the camp they found half the SOL
diers up, waiting to find out why the gun was
fred.
Lights were brought, and the body placed
upon tie ground. The dog skin WAS removed,
and within was found Prussian drummer
He was o small fellow, though apparently
some twenty years of age; but he was dead /;
Pierre's bali having touched his heart, or some
where very near it. His pockets were over
hauled and in one of them was found cypher,
but no one could make anything out. The
colonel took it, and directed that the body
should be placed out Of sight for burial or the
morrow.
But this was not the end. About Eour O'Clock,
just before daylight, another gun vas fred on
the same post where Pierre had been, and this
time man was shot who was trying TO make
his escape from the camp, He was shot through
the head. When the body was brought into
camp, it was found to be that OF a Bavarian
trooper who had been suspected Of treachery,
though no proof had been found against him.
On his person was found the key to the cypher
which had been taken from the person of the
Prussian drummer; and now that the colonel
had them both he could translate the mystic
scroll. 1t proved to be a direction TO the Bayar-
ian to lay his plans for keeping as pear to Ma
poleon's person as possible, after he should ester
Berlin, and then wait for further orders
The mystery was explained. The Bavarian
had contrived to call the great dog away from
the regiment and delivered him up to the enemy,
and his skin was to be made the cover for spy
TO enter the camp under. And the spy would
have got in, too, but for the sportive orders of
the colonel, and the wilfully faithful obedience
Of Pierre Sancoin.
On the next day, Pierre was promoted to the
rank of sergeant, and the Emperor said to him
as he bestowed the boon-If you only make IS
faithful an officer as you have proved yourself

My life is cold, and dark and dreary,
And the wind of fate is never weary,

From the hearts garden wall.
My friends are cold and dark and dreary,
And the winds of love are never weary;
And loves that were bright,
Are dark and cold tonight.
The past is cold and dark and dreary,
And memory is never weary;
And from dim halls float
What was once joyous note.
The future looks cold and somewhat dreary
And shadows dark are ne er weary;

And there my soul will never be weary,
