Wh.t the Rebels think Of Nc ClelIap.

What the Rebels think Of Nc lellaD.
Five rebel prisoners were taken by Gen.
Pope's scouts near Culpepper Court House,
Va, on the 25th ult. The correspondent
Of the Philadelphia Press gives the follow.
ing statement as to what they think of
Mcclellan:
1.-THE generalship of Mcclellan fairly
bewildered them. and they did not know
what to make of it. Gen. Lee had COM
plete aud we'll laid plan to capture the
whole Federal army, and he was so sure
Of success that not the least doubt ever
entered his mind All the officers and
soldiers under Lee shared the opinion of
the commanding General. But inst as
they were ready to bag their game, Gen.
Mcclellan, with comparatively small loss
considering the force engaged, changed
his whole line, completely outwitted the
rebel General, and placed his force in an
impregnable position. The rebel prisoners
state that it is their opinion, and the
opinion Of most Of the southern people
that it was the boldest stroke Of general
ship displayed during the war, and that
no southern General has displayed half Of
the sagacity and military skill of Gen
Mcclellan"

CHICAGO PIcSIc.-The picnic to Chicago,
under the managementof Prof Arnold, of
the Ottawa Academy, was great affair
Sixteen cars were filled to the brim, and
some Of them little more-embracing
all ages, sexes, and conditions The mon.
ster train was drawn BY two locomotives,
and leaving Ottawa at about half past six
in the morning, reached Chicago before
ten. Yuite number repaired to Cottage
Grove, in accordance with the original
programme, but much the larger part of
the company scattered through the city,
SO that by noon, Ottawa people were visi.
bio on every street, at every hotel and
public place in the city. Promptly at
four o'clock p. m the train was again in
readiness, and started On the return trip
reached Ottawa before s in the evening
The day, with exception of heavy rain in
the morning while the excursionists were
repairing to the depot, Was cool and pleas.
ant No accident of any sort occurred,
which is almost marvel in itself, consid.
ering that the company embraced six or
seven hundred children; while the enjoy.
ment and hilarity on all sides seemed un-
bounded. As one of the participants in
the pleasures of tho day, we feel fully au-
thorized, in the name of all, to return
thanks to the bold protector of the trip
for the efficient and perfect manner in
which he had completed all the arrange
ments for SO grand an occasion.

REcRUirs FOR OLD REcINESTs.-The new

10 militia confaina the follow nr section !:

HECRClTS FOX OLD nECIAESTS.-l ne new
law authorizing the President to call out
the militia contains the following section :
SEC f. And be it .farther enacted, That
for the purpose of filling up the regiments
Of infantry now IN the United States ser
vice, the President be and he is hereby
authorized to accept the services OF volun-
teens in such numbers as may be presented
for that purpose for tuelre months, if not
sooner discharged. All such volunteers.
when mustered into the service, shall be
in all respects upon a footing with similar
troops in the United States service, except
as TO service bounty. which shall be fifty
collars. one-half of which to be paid upon
their joining their regiments, and the
other half at the expiration Of their en-
lstment.
From this it will be seen that where a
man enlists in an old regiment he has
only to serve for one year, and is paid
therefor bounty Of fifty dollars-half Of
it in cash upon joining, and the other at
the expiration OF his enlistment. The old
regiments require on an average at leas,
four hundred men to fill .hem up to the

From the Gaesburs (il) Free Democrat (rspasiiean)
July Slst.
We learn that on Tuesday evening last
thirty five of our colored citizens enrolled
themselves in a company for the purpose
of offering themselves to their country for
military service in Gen. Lanes brigade
When it is considered that the whole col.
ored population of Galesburg numbers
l03 only (including women and children),
such manifestation of loyalty and devo-
ton to the government should have .
tendency to crimson the cheeks of white
men, who are , tardy in coming to the
defence of the country.
Galesburg is about the hottest abolition
hole in Illinois, and if the newspaper
accounts are true, has yet sent no .volun.
teer company to the war. 1t is time the
town was doing something, and if the
white men are all towards, why it is fitting
they should send their negroes.
