GENERAL JOHNSTON MORTALITY
WOUN DED.
GREAT CONFUSION AT RICHMOND.

MCCLELLAN's HEADQUARTERS, June g.
Two deserters who came in this morning,
state that Gen. Joseph Johnston was seriously
if not MORALLY wounded through the groin,
by minnie ball.. during the late battle. Gen.
W. Smith is now in command. Other infor-
nation received goes to corroborate the fact.
These deserters state that the rebel loss is es-
timated at 10000 in killed, wounded, and
missing.
No material change has taken place in the
position of the enemy. A contraband has
represents things there as in a terrible state
of confusion and uncertainty. The troops
are in the city excepting those doing guard
duty and tending the sick and wounded, all
being compelled to remain outside. There
were no signs of evacuation, but on the con-
trary everything shows determined resist
ance on the part of the rebels. The contra
band states that during the fight on Sunday,
the housetops and all the elevated positions
were covered with people to witness the bat
tie, every one expecting to see our troops
driven into the Chickahomiuy; but when they
saw the rebels running towards the city, the
greatest CONSERVATION prevailed. Many Of
the inhabitants have crossed James river,
expecting the city to be occupied by our troops
soon.
1t is rumored that Gen. Magruder is going
to resign, having become Disguised with the
rebel military administration. We are in
formed that there are no troops between the
Rappahannock and the army of the Potomac
under command of Gen. Mcclellan. Every
thing has been very quiet to-day. A flag of
truce came in to-day from Gen. Huger, ask
ing for the bodies of Gen. Pettigrew and Coils.
Davis, Lightfoot, Long, and Britton, who were
supposed to have been killed in the late bat
tie. Col. Davis was the only one killed.
Lightfoot and Long are prisoners, and Britton
was wounded as also Gen. Pettigrew. Col.
Davis body will be returned.

More Rebel Perfidy--The Exchange of
Col. COrcOran Still Refused.


FORTRESS MONROE, June $3.50 P. M
The Massachusetts, which went up James
river, on Sunday night last, with the priva-
teers to be exchanged for Col. Corcoran and
others, held as their hostages, returned this
morning, bringing back the privateers with
her. Gen. Huger promised on behalf of his
government that the hostages would be ex-
changed for the privateers. Acting upon this
intimaton, the privateers were sent up
and on their arrival at City Point,
trains of cars came down from Petersburg,
with flag of truce to receive them. The ex-
pected hostages not being on board however,
the pirates were not given up, but a COM
munication was sent to the rebel government
asking an explanation. Ana answer came back
to the effect that Gsn. Huger had exceeded
his authority, and that further conference
would be necessary before the exchange could
be contemplated.
1t was Immediately replied to by the flag of
truce boat, that they would remain at City
Point reasonable time, in order for the pro-
nosed further conference. This was sent to
the rebel war department at Richmond, and
the Massachusetts, waited till next day without
receiving any further communication, when,
after sending a boat ashore and learning that
nothing was expected from Richmond, she
started on her return down the river. During
her stay at City Point some of the privateers
were very indignant at the delay which they
were obliged to submit to, and the inten-
ton was secretly expressed to seize the boat
on the passage down. The necessary precau-
tons were taken however, by Col Whipple
who was in command of the flag, and no trou-

WASHINGTON, June 6.
SENATE.
There was debate on the motion to re-
consider the vote laying a tax on slavery. In
the course of the debate, Mr.. CowAN said it
might be said he intended to lecture the SEN
ator, if he thought it deserved it, by passing
acts which were calculated to trample on the
constitution. 1t might be said he was dog
matte. Well, he intended to be dogmatic.
Mr.. WADE, in his seat-All but the ''matic."
CowAN repGed-When that senator settles
the little account he has with his colleague in
the other house, it will be time enough for me
to pay attention to that kind of remark. Till
then he must excuse me.
Mr.. WADE then spoke of Cowan, as having
a right to be the mere advocate ank watchdog
of traitors in the field, but not a right to come
here to lecture the senate. Who ever heard
of him! He was willing to be criticized by
somebody having some authority, but he would
rather be lectured by anybody than the senat-
or from Pennsylvania.
Mr.. CowAN said he might be very humble,
inexperienced, and unknown, but he was here
as a representative of Pennsylvania He rep
resented three millions of people, and was not
going to apologize for his people, for his in
experience, or for his youth. He never I'M
