Retreat of Gen. Banks.

The Union forces under Gen. Banks. at Martins
burg, in the Shenandoah Valley, Virginia, number
ing about 1900, were attacked May %, by about
q, 1000 rebels under Jackson and forced to retreat to
the Potomac river. The official dispatch of Gen.
Banks says
Although serious, our loss is much less than might
have been anticipated, considering the very great
disparity of the forces engaged and the long matured
plans of the enemy, which aimed ut nothing less than
the capture of orr whole force. My command en-
counterei the enemy in a constant succession of
attacks and in well-cOntested engagements at Stras-
burg. Middleton Newton and points between these
places, and at Winchester. The force of the enemy was
estimated at from 5000 to 10000, with a very
strong artillery and cavalry for-e. My own force
was less than 1, 600 strong, all told. Ii ii "A source
Of qualification that the supply train, numbering 500
wagons which was subject To constant attack IN front
and rear and fink, with slender preparations for
forIiug or ferrying streams. got through with a loss
IF net more than 80 wagons, after a forced march of
53 miles, 50 of which were performed in one day.
Our troops are in good spirits and occupy both sides
OF the river.
disbursements having promptly arrived, the
rebels were driven back, and at the latest advices
were so nearly surrounded by Gems. Fremont,
Banks, and M'D0well, that there was little prospect
of escape.
Retreat of Beaurcgard from Corinth.
The evacuation commenced on the night of the
29th. The enemy retreated southwardIy until the
INV t4A-t Wa bAA ~ va" NY q ~ a
Junction. and thence southwardIy. 1t Is understood
that about half Of the enemy went South. on the
Mobile and Ohio railroad. Early in the week an
other body supposed TO number $4,000. went TO
Grand Junction, and from o 1000 to $4,000 to Kos
suth. After the rebel force had passed down. thus
causing a division Of their forces, rs above stated,
that part Of the rebel force which went TO kossuth
had TO march on foot, in consequence of the INSULT
cheney Of transportation. and will probably be cap
tured, as a large force Of cavalry is in pursuit. 1t
Is not presumed that the part which went to Grand
Junction Will make any stand there, but move down
the Mississippi Central railroad TO Jackson. and
thence ria the Southern Mississippi railroad to Meri-
den, on the Mobile and Ohio road, forming q junction
with those who moved down the latter road direct.
The impression prevails that the destination Of the
whole force Is Richmond, which they can reach rio
Mobile.
An expedition, 1900 strong. of Federal cavalry
was sent out. Wednesday night, to destroy the bridge
Of the Mobile and Ohio railroad, 40 miles south Of
Corinth, and have destroyed the bridges on the road
IN several places. y large amount Of commissary
stores were captured, together with 3 pieces Of artil-
lery. They took several hundred prisoners, aud
found $500 sick wounded at Bonneville.

An Incident of the Draft.

The following will do for war Item we
think, although the gist of IL Is an escape
from going to the war;
Saws the Reading pa Times: 1t is well
known that Commissioner kupp was very pre-
else and exact in his proceedings always keep
ing an eye to the interests of the country,
while dealing honorably with all. Now, it
happened that among the ahle-bodied men
drafted from one of the Heidelbergs, there was
an obese specimen of humanity, but whom the
chances hit as one of the elect. When he re-
ceived his ticket for soup he fastened to Read
ing, and knowing where lived the cutest spec
linen of lawyer, he went straight to his Of
fee. Said he:
Il am draitedr
The deuce you are; 1t must have been a
strong man that drafted your
We'll, I'm drafted, and l want to get out.

Commissioner looked at the wheezy speci-
men for some time.
He won't do; can't march,.
But he must do clustered out the lawyer,
and you know he will
He can't march; he coa't do, and l can't
take him.
This was what our smart friend wanted.

NO, he WON'T

Is drafted, and ,cdats to be e1emptedr
The commissioner looked at the lawyer for
about a minute, then regarded the fat draft,
and, without speakinga word, scratched off his
name.
We don't vouch for the foregoing.

Don't EAT TOO Much. - The celebrated
Abernethy once remarked TO a friend: Il tell
you honestly what / think is the whole cause
of the complicated maladies of the human
frame; 1t is their gorlnandizing, and stufiing,
and stimulating the digestive organs to excess,
thereby creating irritation. The state of our
minds is another cause.-the fidgeting and dis
contenting ourselves about what cannot be
helped-passions Of all kinds; malignant pas
sions and worldly cares pressing upon the
mind, disturb the central action, aud do
great deal of harm"
