ny If the statement Of recent dispatch

CO If the statement of recent dispatch
es are to be believed. an attack by this
time has been made on Mobile, and per-
haps the place is now in the possession OF
our forces. A Pensacola letter Of Sept.
IL. to the Philadelphia Press says that ex-
petitions were fitting out at Port Royal
and Pensacola for important special SER
vice. One Of the armadas was to be CON-
manded by Admiral Faragut. the other by
Admiral Dupont. Savannah and Mobile
were no doubt the points aimed at. A
Fortress Monroe dispatch informs us that
the Charleston Mercury Of Sept. 18th. an
nounces the arrival of large Union re en-
forcements q, Hilton Head. SO that our
troops who have for nearly year remain
ed there doing nothing, will have work
enough soon, and Gen. Mitchell enjoy an
opportunity of testing the rebels on the
coast with the same rigor that he did their
brethren in Northern Alabama.

McClellan's Report on the Late
Battles,

NEAn SHAnPsBURe. Sept. 20. 1862.
To Maj. Gen. FL. w. HSlleck:
| have the honor to report the follow
ng as some Of the results of the battles o
South Mountain anil Antietam:
At South Mountain our loss was Az
dead. 1850 wounded. and 76 missing: to.
tai, ISIS. AT Antietam our loss was
2.010 killed, 9.416 wounded, and 1,O44
missing: total 12,469. Total loss in two
battles. 1874.
The loss of the rebels in the two battles.
as near as can be ascertained. from their
data will not fall short of the following
estimate: H
Major Davis, Assistant inspector gener-
al. who superintended the burial of the
dead. reports about 5000 rebels buried on
the field of Antietam by our troops Pre-
vious to this. however. the rebels had bur-
led many of their own dead upon q dis
tant portion of the battlefield, which they
occupied after the battle, probably at least
500.
Tie loss Of the rebels at South Noun
tain cannot be sscertaincd with accuracy.
but as our troops drove them from the
commencement of the action, and as
much greater number of their dead were
seen on the field than Of our men, il is not
unreasonable to suppose their loss was
greater than ours. Estimating their kill
ed at 500, the total rebels killed in the two
battles would be 1000. According to
the ratio OF our own killed and wounded.
this would make their loss in wounded
1912
AS nearly as can be ascertained by this
time. the number of prisoners taken in the
two battles will. at the lowest estimate, a.
mount to 5000. The full returns will no
doubt show larger number. Of these a.
bout 200 are wounded.
This gives a rebel loss in killed, wound
sd and prisoners of TWENTY-FIVE
THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED AND
FORTY TWO.
II will be observed that this does not
include stragglers. the number of whom
is said to be. by citizens. very large.
1t may be safely concluded that the re-
bel army lost at least 0,OOO Of their best
troops.
From the time our troops first euconn.
tered the enemy in Maryland, until he was
driven back into Virginia, We captured
thirteen guns. seven caissons, and nine lin.
bers. two field FORCES, two caisson bodies,
thirty-nine colors and one signal flag.
We have not lost single gun or color
On the battle field of Antietam Ia, 900
small arms were collected, besides The
large number carried of by citizens. and
those distributed on he ground to recruits
and other unarmed men arriving immedi-
ate!y after the battle.
At South Mountain no collection OF

Who Threatens Now.

The frequent threats with which the al
vanced friends Of the Union are assailed
that if the President dared Issue procla
nation of emancipation. a large majority
of the army would revolt. is now proved
to have been what great many Others
have been-pure gasconade. The army
accepts the order cheerfully and thank
fully, and the dissatisfaction caused by it
will be like the ague in the West-nsver
here. but in the adjoining county, or up
the next creek. The army is not only ley.
al but it is anti-slavery with hardly an in
dividual exception. And more than that,
it belongs to the Propaganda. and will
carry its opinions with its bayonets, clear
to the gulf.

HoN. DANIEL s. DIcKISsoN.-This gen.
tleman was one of the hardest of the Hard
shell New York Democrats, and was
among those who went farthest in support
of the slavery propaganda measure. He
is now among the most decided advocates
of putting down the rebellion by vigorous
ly striking at the main prop of the vile trea-
SON. In q recent letter he says this ''hell-
born rebellion" must be put down upon
the theatre it selected for the inauguration
of its diabolical treason" His views up
on con6scation and emancipation he gives
in the following forcible language:
1.-THE government should strike hardest
schere q WILL BE FELT MOST; should Tor the
purpose of conquering an early peace, In
obedience to the first instincts of self-pres-
ervation and the hottest dictates of hu-
manity, whenever it will contribute to
these results, Immediately or remotely.

SPRINGFIELD, Mo-, Oct. IA highly re-
spectacle and reliable gentleman, who has
enjoyed advantageous opportunities for the
number and location OF the rebel forces
menacing our southern borders. and who
has been in some Of their camps within ten
days. represents that in Newton county.

rebels under command OF Coffee and Shell

Parsons has 5000. Near Parsons. toward
the east, is Gen. Mob ride with about 8. 900.
At Little Rock, Gen. Holmes has about
1900.
The above figures show an aggr egate
force of 10000 rebels. Of these $4,000
are either within the boundaries of Nilsson
ri or on its southern line. The whole force
is under command of Gen. Holmes
