| A private correspondent, trustworthy
gentleman, forming part of tho advance of
our army OF the Peninsula, writes, in n
! notS dated son the ChickOhominy, May
2i h." "Eleven rebels came across the
creek TO day, and gave themselves up, at
New Bridge. A private of the Sth Illinois
cavalry. was wounded In little skirmish.
Gen. Stonemun saw negro coming in-
to our lines Just ATT the afidir yesterday.
H. ordered him OIL; and between our pick
cts and the encmy's the fellow was
shot"
Gen. Stonemnn may be u very good
cavalry officer, but II he has been guilty
of cold,bloodcd murder like this, he
should of be tried and cashicred from the
army which Is disgraced, not less by the
stupidity which turns away a man likely
| to give useful Information 10 the Com
inanding General, than by such inhu-
manity.
While such unmilitary conduct as this
is tolerated in the army, we need not
wonder at the secrecy IN which the enc
my shrouds his movements.
Mannassus was evacuated before our
Generals knew that regiment had left;
and rebel officers captured at Williams
burg say "our [rebell forces were with
drawn by one or two regiments at time
and concentrated in the vicinity OF Rich
mond. We were nearly two months in
eYacuating Cen.eryIlle and Mannassas."
This we take from n report Of couversa-
tions with a rebel officer made prisoner
at the battle Of williamsburg, which now
lies before US,
Yorktown was evacuated with similar
success. From Corinth, too, the rebels
have made IA skillful escape, and it is re-
ported this morning that they have silent
ly retrcated from before Richmond.
1t may not conduct to their success to
retreat SO constantly, but il certainly
does not contribute to the reputation OF
our Generals, or take away from the du-
ration OF eXpensiyeness of the war, to
permit them to accomplish, with absolute
safety, the most delicate II all operations
in war.
Suppose Gen. Stoneman had led the
advance of Gen. Banks army. That was
saved by a negro who ran INTO our camp,
out OF breath, and informed our officers
that the enemy were upon them. But
Gen. Stoneman would have bad him shot
us he came in.
1t is well known that these negroes
have more thorough knowledge Of the
enemy's county than any white man.
Their means of getting information are
certainly better thun those OF the average
privdtes in the rebel army.
II 1t is useful at al ~ get news Of the
enemy's movements, it would seem that
these people should be welcomed. But
they are repulsed; sont back, when they
come to US at the risk Of their lives, and
in this instance shot, for efforts 10 serve

Meantime Gen. Sumner had succeeded
in bringing his troops across the Chicka-
honliny, and was sdyancing on the right
to maintain our position there, where
less ground had cen lost. Afier sever

two bridges across the creek between
Dottcm's Bridge and New Bridge, where
local reports held it to be impossible to
find any foundation for piles TO support
the superstructures.
One of these bridges was some two
miles above Bottom Bridge, the other a
mile further up tbs stream. The lower

The Washington correspondent Of the
Chicago Tribune makes the following re-
marks in regard to bill introduced by
]. F. Wilson, from this Congressional
District
One Of the most important measures
introduced at this session OF Congress ID
the DISTINGUISHING bill proposed BY Mr..
Wilson, Of Iowa, which provides that no
person shall hereafter BE- eligible to Office
who has taken up arms against the United
States after hdrsng taken an oath to sxp-
portth Constst.sio.. The bill ID inten-
ded TO apply TO Ill former Senators, Rep
Tesentatives, Federal and State officers,
who have joined the rebellion. The Con-
stitution Of the United States, aud the
Constitutions yof all the States, prescribe
m oath Of fidelity to the former instru-
ment. and hence every rebel who has held
an Office 10 perjarsd before God and man.
The oath OF such person on assnning
another Office undr the United 6aate4
Constitution would hbe mockery and 5
blasphemy. Yet I venture to nay that
the Democrats will oppose the bill with

why the Army Order - nss Rerar.
AAa.
The Chicago Tribune says:
daily reports of slave catching by
army officers for rebel masters, the most
atrocious being in Gen. Halleck's Depart
ment and perpetrated by his own order)
have drawn attention to the fact that Ad-
jutant General Thomas has not vet pub
lished to the army the new article OF war
on that subject. The failnre to do so, un-
less justified by something which does
uctappcar on the surface, is an act Of mu-
tiny. So long AZ the article is not given
out in official form ii ia no article at all.
The proper course / believe, in such ca
ses, is for the Secretary of War to trans
NIT the paper to the Adjutant General,
and for the latter to publish it. Sufficient
time has elapsed, sufficient bArharity has
been practiced, sufficient grief and shame
have been put upon the country--why
has not the action of Congress and the
President been carried into effect?
