volunteers, with commission to date from
Aug. 81, 1861. He was then placed in charge
OF the second brigade of that division, and
proceeded to organize it at Tennalytown,
near the waters of the Potomac, and in this
vicinity wintered during 1862.
Few officers have performed more arduous
duties or rendered more distinguished or
faithful service to the country since the COM
mencement Of the war. In the seven days
night before Richmond, Gen. Meade was
struck by Il ball, which entered his side and
passed through his body, making a severe
and painful wound. Under tender and skill
iul treatment he rapidly recovered and it
was scarcely known that he had left his couch
when he was in his saddle ready to take part
In the sanguinary battle of South Mountain
and Antietam. In these engagements he COM
manded the Pennsylvania reserves, Il corps
whose reputation for courage and discipline
has been surpassed by none. He was with
that corps in the battle of Drainsvlle, on the
Chlckahominy and in Maryland When Gen.
Hooker was wounded at Antietam, Gen. Nc
Clellan placed Gen. Meade in command of
the troops which had just been deprived of its
heroic leader. During the action Gen. Meade
received a slight confusion from Il spent grape
shot, and had two horses killed under him.
He distinguished himself greatly during the
battle, being in the thickeSt of the fight en-
couraging his men by his deeds of daring and
valor. At Fredericksburg he maintained his
reputation Tor GOODNESS, courage and skill,
winning the unstinted applause of the army
and the hearty congratulations of a grateful
and appreciative people.

FORTRESS MONROE, June 27.-The flag of
truce steamer Monitor left for City Point this
afternoon with 600 rebel prisoners, in charge
OF Mayor john L. Multord, general flag of
truce officer. The prisoners were all recentlI
captured at Beverly Ford and Aide
Arrangements have been made by commits

officers and men shall be reduced 10 priyates,
and delivered at Guy Point on the James rif

made by the commanders OF the opposing ar
mIeS, wlIn can exchange or release prisoners
at OTHER points, mutually agreed on by said
commanders. This rule viii prevent aurren-
ders for the purpose Of being paroled. The
issue between commissioners Ludlow and
Guild has been made up on the subject OF the
recent act of the confederate congress, which
declares punishment on all our officers and
men commanding negro or mulatto troops,
and upon sucn troops themselves. The con-
tederate authorities, who have used the servi.
ccs OF negroes and hat-breed Indians, have
been notified by commissioner Ludlow that
the U. $. government will throw its protec-
ton around all their officers and men, without
regard to color, and will promptly retaliate for
all violations Of the cartel, and the laws and
usageS of war.
Returned prisoners report that the rebels
are strongly terrifying City Point.

New YORK, June 29-The Herald's head
quarters army of the Potomac dispatch, dated
2Sth, says affairs on the upper Potomac are
quiet The rebels have a small force south
of llagerstown, and our forces remain in pos
session of South Mountain. Rebel cavalry
are reported to have crossed the Potomac be-
low Edwards Ferry, and captured train of
100 wagons. Pleasanton has been appointed
maj general and commands the cavalry
forces. Gen. Stahl has been ordered to report
for duty with another command in Pennsyl-
Yania.
Two rebel regiments are encamped at Ac-
cotinck, ten miles from Alexandria. Cap
tured rebels say that Stuarts cavalry division
with artillery is marching on the railroad be-
tween Washington and Baltimore. The whole
rebel army, except Stuart, is now in Pennsyl-
vania. The rebel officers say they are deter
mined to make Pennsy ivania their future bat
tie field.
PHILADELPHIA, June 29.-Business is al
most entirely suspended in all its departments.
The receipts OF produce by the Pennsylvania
railroad have ceased. There was no meeting
OF the board of brokers this forenoon, and
there is quite panic among the outside deal
ers. The prices ofstocks have declined five
per cent. The Corn Exchange raised five
companies this morning. The coal dealers
held meeting this forenoon and resolved to
close their colleries till the crisis has passed,
to enable the miners to volunteer. The mer-
chants have resolved to raise 81 900 600 All
the stores are to be closed, and the men en-
ployed in them are to forwarded for the de-
fence of the city and state. The men who
leave their employment are to be paid their
usual salary.
TRENTON, N. j., June 29.-On Saturday,
Gov. Parker, OF this state, received telegram
from Gov Curtin, saying that the rebels had
again advanced in force upon Pennsylvania
Gov. Parker forthwith took measures to call
out the militia Of New Jersey
HARRISBURG, June 29-l.30 p. M.-Two

direction of Gettysburg. When the refugees

PORTLAND, June 29.-An alarm was occa-
stoned this morning by the sentnels at the
fort seeing two schooners below, acting as If
they intended to land. The garrison was
beat to quarters, the Ferry Village people
were alarmed, and notice sent across to the
city. The vessels, however, proved to be
fishermen.
1t is evident that the report of the doings of
vessels in the Bay of Fundy arose from the
capture of the Archer by the Tacony, and the
burning of the barque. Perhaps the rebels,
in their character of fishermen, spread the
report to the fishing fleet themselves, to draw
off attention from the raid on Portland. tits
also evident that there are no other privateers
on our coast. We have every man who
joined the Clarence from the pirates Alabama
and Florida, including the three taken from
the Byzantium, so there is no truth in the re-
ported escape Of boat-load of men Saturday
morning. The rebel officers said they cap
tured the NJ. A. Shndler with Quaker gun
spar run out. The captain of the Shndler
said ;-"For Gods sake, don't fire. l surren-
der Some vessels might have escaped from
the little howitzer if they had not been fright
ened,

STRAGGLING.-Beforec closing let me refer
to the bane and pest of the army of the Poto-
mac-straggling. A march of five miles
cannot be made without Il certain number of
stragglers. The professional stragger is
never guilty of being in the ranks on the oc-
ca,iOn of march; he hates military precs-
ion, and hasn't the shadow of an idea of his
duties and responsibilities as soldier of the
republic. He Is philosopher in his way;
believes in taking everything quiet, and may
be seen in every sylvan retreat along the line
of march, with hat and coat off aud knapsack
unSlung, gazing with an air of great compoS-
ure on his comrades. Sometimes a group
may be seen playing cards or smoking, and
frequently party may be seen bathing in
some contiguous stream. Observant of w hit
mans occupation they ''loafe and invite them
selves" but their favorite pastime is gor-
mandizing government subsistence, to which
the services they render do not enttle them.
Marauding motives induce most of them to
lay behind, and every farmhouse, barn, or
chard, hen-roosU, and pig-sty is sure to re-
ceive visit from them.
For days after the army has reached Civ
en- point, thousands of these fellows throng
the road leading to camp, and when, after
from two to four days they reach it, and are
asked by their officers to account for their alb
sence, some specious excuse is always pre-
scented. The booming of cannon in the ad-
vance always considerably augments the
number of stragglers, many OF whom court
capture by the guerrilas, for the ayowed pur-
pose of being paroled and receiving fur
Tough of indefinite length. But it must not
be inferred that all who remain behind are OF
this character. On the contrary, there are
many privates and officers who are physically
unable to undergo the tatigues of long
march, and who find themselves, much to
their chagrn, under the necessity of keeping
company with their most unprincirled associ-
ates On them not shadow of reproach
should be cast; they are men of education
