Rou. of lho Rebels from strasburg

WARRINGTON, March 25.-Gen. Shields has
received dispatch from Major General Banks,
dated five miles beyond Strasburg. The enc.
my are still in retreat and our forces Ia hard
pursuit The lOss of the rebels muat have
been enormous. They have abapdoned wagons
along the road, filled with the dead and dying.
The houses on the route are found crowded with
the wounded and dead. Tho dwellings in the
town adjacent to the battle field Of Sunday, are
also found filled with the wounded. The in
habitants aided the rebels in carrying off their
wounded during the day, and in burying them
as quick as dead.
Our artillery makes terrible havoc among the
enemy in their flight, and the rout bids fair to
be one of the most dreadful of the war.

before his audience by the simple use of cray

them with our own eyes underground. The
secret of his success as a lecturer, lies in the
fact that he puts theories aside with an easy
hand, and gives us the plain, common-sense
causes for the effects which, to unscientifc
minds, appear strange and paradoxical, and
at the same time, stripping the science Of
hard words. His illustrations of the coal
wells, the ancient carboniferous forests, the
formation Of coal beds hy existing analoges,
and the great length Of time required to pro.
duce these changes, were among the most
marked Of his subjects, and were listened to
with unusual interest.

benefit of the Natural History Society, be

The people should not be impatient in re-
gard to Gen. McClellan's movements. They
should remember that he has greatly sup
erior force, in point Of numbers to contend
with and that failure would be very dis
as,rous to the union cause. They should re-
member that the orders OF the president, as
commander.in-chief Of the army and navy OF
the United States, 20 the commanding gener-
ais, are-rtm no risks. make no centuries, but
let erery Increment be snrc, and erery blou a
rictorg. Generals Mcclellan and llalIeck are
acting in accordance with these orders, and
inasmuch as they are scientific military men,
who have made the art Of war the study OF
great portion Of their lives, we can trust to
them the conduct Of the advances against the
enemy, and to make sure that every blow
will be u victory. The wonderful success OF
Mcclellan at Yorktown, and llalleck at Cor
inth, shows that no risk should be incurred
no rash venture made The occupation Of the
rebel capital would be worth more to the
cause Of the union in its military, moral and
national effect at this tire. than any other
success that could be achieved while, on the
other hand, great defeat before Richmond
would be disaster that it would be difficult
to retrieve and might entail upon our gov
eminent sad and terrible consequences that
