OFFICIAL REPORT OF THE BATTLE OF ANTIEs
TAM:
NEAR SHARPsBuRG Sept. 3

hEAh oHARPsBURG sept. Z9.
To: Maj. Gen. H. W. Halleck, Gen.=
in Chief:-l have the honor to report The
following as some of the results of the
battle of South Mountain and Antietam:
At South Mountain our loss was 445
dead; wounded 1905; and 76 missing; to.
tai 1915:
At Antietam our loss was s,o1O killed;
9, ,416 wounded; and 1,O45 missing; total;
12, 469: Total loss in the two battles, A.
1874. The loss of the rebels in the two
battles, as near as can be ascertained,
from the number of their dead found up
on the field, and from other data will
not fall short of the following estimate:
Major Davis, Assistant Inspector Gem
eral, who superintends the burial of the
dead; reports about 5000 rebels buried
upon the field cf AntietamIby our troops;
Previous to this however, the rebels had
buried many of their own dead upon the
distant portion of the battle field, which
they occupied after the battle, probah1@
at least 500:
The loss of the rebels at South Noun
tain cannot be ascertained with accu-
racy, but as our troops drove them FROM
the commencement of the action, and as
a much greater number of their dead
were seen in the field than of our own
men, it is not unreasonable to suppose
that their loss was greater than ours
Estimating their killed at five hundred'
the total rebels killed Id the two battles;
would be 1000: According to the ratio
of our own killed and wounded this
would make their loss in Woinded, 49,
74s, as nearly as can be determined at
this time:
The uhnbeTs of prisoners taken by our
troops in the two battles, will at the low
est estimate, amount to 5000. The full
returns will no doubt show a larger num-
Der of these: About 1900 are wounded:
This gives me rebel loss in killed,
wounded and prisoners, of 25,54O.
1t will be observed that this does not
include their stragglers, the number of
whom is said be, by citizens. very large.
1t may be safely concluded, therefore;
that the rebel army lost at least $4,000
of their best troops from the time our
troops first encountered the enemy in
Maryland until he was driven back into
Virginia. We captured l3 guns, cal
sons and nine limbers, two field forges;
two oaison bodies, SO colors aud one sig
nal flag. We have not lost single gun
or a color.
On the battle field Of Antietain ID, bod
small arms were collected, besides the
large number carried off by citizens Ehd
those distributed on the ground to reefhits
and the unarmed men arriving itnmedi-
ately after the battle.
At South Mountain 10 collection Of
small arms was made, owing to the haste
Of the pursuit. From that point 400
were taken from the opposite side of the
Potomac

NOT BAD;

May is considered an unfortunate mar
rying month. A country editor says
that girl was asked not long since; to
unite herself in the silken tie, to a brisk
clap, who named May in his proposals.
The lady gently limited that May was an
iinlucky month in marrying: swell

WAGES OF THE LABeRER,

A distinguished writer puts forth the
following theory on the subject of wages
for labor:
" With regard to wages; it may sound
strangely, yet believe it to be true, that
the real interest of the farmer is that the
wages should be kept high, and for this
reason A laboring man is not mere
machine-a huinaii poor-box, into whose
mouth is put daily number of cents,
never to re-appear, but living being,
with wants and desires, which he will not
fail to CRAFTY the moment he possesses
the means: If he can earn only scanty
pittance, Just enough to keep him alive,
he startes on accordingly (; his food;
bread and watsr, a half fed, half-clad;
wholly untaught animal, with a useless
mouthful of carni1eroiis teeth: But if
his wages increase, he instantly employs
them in comforts in clothes for himself
and family and as he rises in the scale,
ventures on the taste of meat. He en-
ploys tailor, shoemaker, halter, a
butcher; and these in turn, purchase the
materials of their trade from the farmer
himself, and the payer of the other Gus
tomers-and the farmer receives back,
with abundant interest, the difference
which he advances in the first instance
between high and low wages: 1t rs fol
this teSsoti, that one of our shrewdest
farmers used to say, give our laborers
good wages and they will buy our beef
Thus, too, the bounties of Providence go
round benafceht circle-and; after ma
king the laborer better fed--hetter clad
better taught--in short, better man
the farmer himself is richer for the very
benefits he dispenses. Depend upon it,
there is no surer sign of national pros
perity, than high wages-and God grant
that for many a long year it may be the
lot of our countrymen, who subsist by
the labor of their hands, to work we'll
to be paid Mell-and to live WE'LL

GODS WORLD:

Though I admit this world is suffi-
ciently sorrowful, and, to certain extent
properly termed "a vale of tears yet do
l do not fully sytnpathize in those sickly
repinings at its miseries and vanities,
which are too commonly lrawled out from
the pulpit !; for the world is the workman
ship 5f God, and it is Uorrespehdently
beautiful--beautiful surprising desciip-
ton: Its mountains and valleys, hills
and plains, rivulets, oceans its infinitely
diversified forms and colors for it en-
braces all the hues of the rainbow, va
riously blended and combined all are
beautiful. Then the sun pours down upon
it a flood of glory by day, and the moon
mantles it with silver radiance by night;
and oh is not the canopy beautiful when
it is scintillating with its millions of stars
And there is much of moral beauty, too,
in this much abused world of ours, mau-
gre all that the bigot and the cynical phi
losopher may say to the contrary. See,
fer Instance, material love, strong as
death,' bending over the cradle Of infan-
cy and the couch of aff1iction see hearts
united by mutual affection, reciprocally
sustaining each other through long, long
yeats of suffering see, in short, amidst
the darker aspects of human life, on which
gloomy theologians are wont to dwell,
there are transpiring thousand scenes
to engage the approving notice of all
seeing heaven. Yes, this is beautiful
world. d.-REv: G. ROGERS.

From the Shenandoah valley.

New York, June ia special dispatch
to the Times, dated Mount Jackson, 10th,
states that information has been received at
headquarters that Jackson has been reinforced
a second time by $4,000 men. Fremont is in
a very exposed position, and no reinforce
ments are on the way to him. 1t is believed
that much of the Corinth army are about to
be sent to secure supplies of wheat in the
Shenandoah Valley.
WINCHESTER, June IL, 10 p. MI By mail
to New York There is nothing worthy Of
note transpiring here at present, but we hear
a multitude Of rumors in regard to Gen. Ere
mont's army The latest report coming
through secession channel to Strasburg, is
that the rebel jackson had fallen back to
some defensible point, where he had been
reinforced by seventy thousand men, ten
thousand of whom he would employ to
keep Fremont engaged, while the remainder
were to march down the valley west of North
Mountain, cut Fremont off, and sweep him
from the valley. The reports of Jackson's
reinforcements and his designs are discredited
here. A large portion of the prisoners car
ried off by jackson have effected their es-
cape. Told gossip and very doubtful.

XXXVATth Congress, First Session.
WASHINGTON, June II.
SENATE

SENATE.
The bill increasing the medical service of
the volunteer force, with an amendment abol-
ishing brigade surgeons, was passed. There
was a long debate on the alterations made in
the title of a bill by the conference committee,
providing for certain bOunties. The report
of the committee of conference was finally
disagreed to and new committee ordered.
Mr.. CHANDLER offered a resolution that the
amount of legal tender treasury notes, al
ready authorized, shall never be increased,
but the secretary of the treasury is authorized
to issue hundred millions treasury ten days
certificates, bearing five per cent interest in
addition to the fifty millions already author
lied by law Laid over.
The Pacific railroad bill was taken up. An
amendment to make the commencement of
the road at fort Kearney, was rejected. An
amendment was adopted making the COM
mencement of the road in Nebraska, in the
one hundredth degree. A large number of
amendments proposed by the committee were
adopted. A number of names were added to
the list of corporators. The bill was then re-
ported to the senate. Adjourned.
HOUSE.
The bill amending the patent office law was
taken up and passed. 1t provides for three
examiners in chief, whose duties shall be adj
visory to the commissioner of patents After
the second rejection of an application for a
patent, or after enc decision by the commits
sioner, the party dissatisfied may appeal to
either of the judges of the circuit court of
the District of Columbia.
Mr.. ELIOT, from the select committee on
confiscation, stated that he was instructed to
report the bill heretofore referred to them
with amendments. The point of order was
raised, that the committee were instructed to
report the bill, and the amendments were in
admissible.
The speaker sustained the point. Mr.. ELI
OF then reported the bill as it was referred to
them.
The morning hour having expired, the
house went into committee of the whole on
the bill authorizing additional issue oftreasury
notes.
Mr.. SPAULDING favored giving the secreta-
ry of the treasury power to meet all contin-
gencles for the vigorous prosecution of the
war in furnishing the means. The treasury
bill was then laid aside.
The senate's substitute for Mr.. ARNOLD S
bill prohibiting slavery forever in territories
was concurred in. The bill donating lands
for the establishment of agricultural colleges
was taken up and passed. 1t apportions
lands to each state and territory at the rate of
thirty thousand acres for each senator, repre-
tative, and delegate, according to the census
of 1860. The interest on the proceeds of
sales to be appropriated as above.

From Washin @tOlA,

WASHINGTON, June I7.-Lieut. John G.
Speister was killed June 8th while arresting
q notorious rebel named Huston who was the
terror of the people in ST. Johns river, Fla.
Lieut.. Speister with party of our men from
the fleet found Huston at his house armed
with double barrelled gun, two pistols, and
bowie knife, and he fired on Speister on his
demanding his surrender, killing him instant
ly. Huston was Immediately pierced with
four bullets and taken on board mortally
wounded. Lieut.. Speister was executive Off
Ger of the gunboat Seneca, and one of the
bravest officers in the service.
E. L. Plumb, bearer of ratified copies of
the postal convention and extraordinary trea-
ty with Mexico is here. The news of the de-
feat of the French at Puebla is fully confirmed,
but the report that the MeXicans outnumbered
the French is untrue, as the contrary was the
case, and the Mexicans valantly repulsed
the French in three determined charges, fore
ing the latter to retire to OriZaba, where they
were closely hemmed in by the MeXicans.
Secretary Stanton, in answer to a resOlu
ton from the house, states that that depart
ment has no official information whether Gen.
Hunter has organized a regiment of blacks,
or fugitive slaves, &C., but has sent copy of
the resolution to Hunter to report thereon
The secretary states that Hunter was not au-
thorized to organize such regiment, but up
on his requisition arms and clothing had been
sent to the forces under his command, with
out instructions as to the manner they were
to be used. He has not been furnished with
arms to be placed in the hands of slaves. As
to the orders, correspondence, &C., between
the department and Hunter, it would be in
compatible with the public welfare to furnish
them.
A few acting assistant surgeons are wanted
by the navy department for temporary service.
An order has been sent to Gen. Hunter to
release the forty-four men of Col. SerrelPs
New York engineer regiment, some time ago
deported to the Tortugas.
