Corresp ondence of the Cincinnati Gazette
WASHINGTON, June 28-The final debate IN
the Senate on Saturday, on confscation, was in
teusely interesting. Mr. Wade made a strong
speech, devoted chiefly to deplorng the effect
which the defeat of an efficient confseation bill
would have on public opinion and the ultimate
success of the war. He said he represented 9
constituency of one sentiment on the subject,
who were a~dmonishing him IN favor of the most
vigorous prosecution Of the war. lie declared
the vote defeating the House bin would ring
through the slave regions Of the South with a
yell Of triumph, like a great victory, greater
than the defeat of our army before Richmond.
He was sorry to find so many of his fellow Re
publicans joining hands with Democrats against
this Just and necessary measure, from a division
of sentiment and vindictive feeling arising from
no difference Of principle.
Mr.. Fessenden referred TO what he considered
Mr.. Wade's imputation upon the integrity of
Republican Senators be had never believed in
Congressional action on that question.
After great display Of feeling, Mr.. Sherman
made a speech Of admirable temper. He be.
lieved if the President would only inluse into
the war a little more activity and energy, SO
necessary to its success, be might make the Sen
coDtiscation bill even more effective than the
House bin.
The House bill being decisively defeated, the
Senate passed the other by fifteen majority
MesSrs. Wade, Sherman, Sumner, etc, voting
for it as the best they could get, Mr.. Brown
voted against it, not believing in any confis-
cation, while Chandler and Howard voted nay
on other grounds.
There is great Joy over the result, except
among ardent Republicans. The bill virtually
to nothing, unless the President
chooses to make it effective.
Opinions are divided about q conference of
Lhe House, which, by rejection, may defeat the
passage Of any measure whatever.
There is nov no prospect Of q bankrupt law
session. SIGMA.

The Argus and AUalanche have, we Learn,

The cause of their offending was a disposition

A Northern dispatch 10 the Memphis press,
dated July ID, after claiming that Richmond had
fallen and MCCLELLAN was victorious, then
stating that the news is discredited this even
ing goes on to give what comfort it may, to the
Federals, by stating that after a ~hardfought
battle It is understood that MCCLELLAN has
gained his point" We can relieve the anxious
minds of the Federals on this point" It is
true. MCCLELLAN, after " advancing backward
some twenty miles. gained City Point, on James
ziyer, but, considering it not much Of 8 point
after gaining it, he made It a point to get lower
down the river to safer points, and We now hear
he is pointing straight for Old Point and
Fortress Monroe. The Confederates are rather
disappointed at McCLELLAN's rapidly in "gain-
ing points outside Of our points, it being a
point with US just now not to disappOint Nc
CLELLAN from getting on to Richmond, -
Though in a different point Of view and a point
ealy different way than he intended.
MCCLELLAN can truly say:

TILE METH SILENT.


We have been IN receipt OF regular tiles OF
Northern papers, as late as the Both nit, but in
none of them can we find any intelligence Of
the pro1acted battle before Richmond, although
the general contest had then been raging four
days. The contest on the 25th, in which a
Louisiana regiment attacked a greatly superior
foTce Of Federals, and suffered severely, was
published al over the North On the Goth, as a
great victory but of all subsequent results the
entire press, so far as we have received their
issues, are ominously silent
The Chicago Times, Of the 30th, says: " We
have intelligence, which we are not permitted
70 publish, Of important movements by General
MCCLELLAN. in front of Richmond, the results
OF which, It is believed, viii insure the speedy
fsl Of that capital. These movements are of
surprising military splendor, and VIII, with
these which wiz follow, distinguish MCCLEL-
Las as the great captain of the age" The
Times is evidently preparing to let the " great
captain down easy. The North viii never

MOBILE, July 5.-The Advertiser says the
following dispatch is received from high official
source
RICHMOND, July4-The battle of Richmond
has lasted eight days, and not yet finished
Thus far the enemy have been beaten in every
fight. He has been driven from all his in
trenchments, and lost all his supplies of every
kind, and is now surrounded by our victorious
army. Every effort is being made to prevent
his escape by way of James river, but it is
feared some part of his army win succeed in es-
Gaping on their boats.
We estimate the number of prisoners taken at
seven thousand, and the number Of cannon
seventy-fve pieces, besides forty-fve spiked and
abandoned by them last night. The number of
his killed and wounded cannot be less than
twenty thousand. We nave captured and Sc
cured fifteen thousand stand of rms and an
immense amount of valuable property. The
quantity destroyed by the enemy is normous
Among the prisoners we have two major
generals and three or four brigadiers. Our loss
is at least 10000. The only general killed is
Griffith, of Mississippi. The magnificent STRAIT
egg of Gen. Lee is beyond all praise.

VS. have the Daily Delta Of the ID inst, but
find N it nothing of general, and but little of
local interest. The journal is totally subservi-
ent to the Abolition masters of the Crescent
City, and pufs them without stint, and praises
their efforts to restore the supremacy of our
glorious old Gag . without limit. The imported
Yankee editor of the concern does his work We
hemently, and in a manner which shows him to
be an excellent tool The Dolta OF to-day ex-
mbits none of the Independence of that journal

lions from Butler-one sentencing Fidel Keller

exhibiting a human skeleton in his bookstore
window, IN a public place, labeled " Chickahom-

that the bones should be taken by the p~Opulaee
to be the bones Of a United States soldier slain
in that battle, in order to bring the authority Of
tho United States and our armies into contempt,
aud for that purpose he stated to the passOrs-by
that the bones were those Of q Yankee soldier,
whereas, in truth and fact, they were the bones
purchased some weeks before Of a Mexican con
sui, to whom they were pledged by a medical
student The other imposes a similar penalty
on John w. Andrews for exhibiting a cross,
the emblem of the suffering of our blessed
Savior, fashioned for personal ornament, which
he said was made from the bones Of a Yankee
soldier, and having shown sAis, too, without re-
Buke, in the Louisiana Club, which claims to be

Can you, or any one, let US loyal citizens

Gen Buffers rule in New Orleans is represented
as something akin to the ~Jacobinism Of France,
and this account is sent all o. Gurope, all over
the world. The details which arrive by the
newspapers of New York are never published in
contradiction to the first arrived telegraphie dis

The Information published by the APPEAL give
the facts, as nearly correct as they can be OBJ
tanned by energy and ; desire to publish nothing
but the truth. That Of The New York press is
sensatiOnal-much Of It manufactured to suit the
views Of the North at home and abroad. The
question Of the Times correspondent is easily

WASHINGTON, June % -Fremont's special
friends complain bitterly of the treatment be

first taking command to the event of yesterday,
which, they argue, absolutely forced him to ask
to be relieved. He was not only placed under a
subordinate who had been one Of his division
commanders in Missouri. but under an officer
FIVE grades his inferior in rsnk-Fremont rank
ing major-general in the regular amy, coming
next to Mcclellan, if he does not, as some insist,
rank him also. Pope is captain o~f-engineers,
and his m%aior-general rank is in the volunteer
service.
Some of Fremont's friends sayhe should have
been sent back to his original mountain depart
ment, from which he was called in the present
emergency, brought on by the imbeciIity Of
others, only that he might be met by humiia-
ton.
Still all han ds sgree that there was absolute
necessity for some head to the operations in the
Shenandoah valley; that Pope as the selection,
was an admirable one, and that it was impossi-
bic to avoid these vexations of rank in dispos-
ing of such a congregation Of major generals.
There is some feeling, also, GU the part Of
McDowell's and Banks friends, but it will not
likely lead to anything.

large supply of blankets, for the government,
