Wa notice that the Retiring Boaru, under the
lawUf 1882 have placed aaotber bach Of OH
GERS on the retired list. all of whom. with one
or two exceptions, hsve been in active service
since the commencement OF t.le rebellion. These
oecers. are Major General John H. Wool Bcg-
adj or General William S. Harney, Rreyst Brig
adler General Harvey Rrown, Colonel Justin
Dimick, Colonel Charles $ Merchant and Lieu
tenant Colonel Martin Burke General Wool,
whose name heads. this list, has been in com
lGahd at Fortress Monroe, Baltimore and the
Department OF the East since the commence
ment OF The rebellion--all points Of great inn
portance, needing great discretion ard tact on
the pars of the commanding officer. During
the late disturbances in this city General Wool
acquitted hialse'f with credit Had some
Of the regaiar officers under him obeyed ais
orders. instead OF zeaionsly laboring TO stir up
d;ssen sions aud refusing ~ report as General
Wool ordered them TO, the reign OF terror
would not have existed as long Az il did and
muck OF the sacrifice Of life ana destruction Of
General Wool is far advanced in years, his ac-
ton during last week in this city proves very
conciusive!y that there are many officers much
younger in year, who should have been retired
before him. When Wools official report OF his
operations during the disturbances in this city
is allowed to be published we imagine that
many of our citizens will be surprsed. .1H

OuR OwN AND THE REBEL L0ssEs At Ger
TYsBURo.--Gcneral Lee, on the last day he
was in Maryland, said at his headquarters that
he had lost siscc his departure from Culpep-
per, fifty thousand men. Hitherto we have had
no estimate Of the Confederate loss so high as
this. and il il possible that the General may
have exaggerated = little in favor OF round num-
bers and in the warmth of argument against
another battle. But IL seems certain that the
rebellion received at Gettysburg the severest
blow that has been given. Twelve different
hospitals established by the rebel surgeons at
Gettysburg, with the wounded of eleven divi
sions Of the rebel army, fell into our hands upon
our occupation of the place, and the wounded
in these aggregate i've thousand three hundred
and ssvsnty-four. In addition to this there are
in Our own hospitals at the samc place about
three thoussnd wounded rebels. From Win
chester we learn, on rebel rathosity, that there
are fivc thousand wounded mon Of the Southern
army there; and from the Richmond papers we
learn that wounded men from Tho Gettysburg
battles have begun to arrive at the Confederate
capital s.by hundreds With these helps TO an
estimate it u no, difficult to coun, up rebel
loss quite epud to tho numbers given by Gene
raj Leo. Our own wounded in the three battles
will reach ten thousand We have tull lists OF
these. but eaauot soAsc sae space neccssAyv In

NO RESPONSE YET.

1t was through the Hon. Fernando
Wood of New York, that the announce
ment was first made to the public, that
terms of settlement were made 10 the JAG,
obins at Washington in December last,
and by them rejected, which, had they
beer accepted, would have been 'satis
factory to the people both North aud South"
No response, other than a faint denial,
and which was at once prchptly met by
Mr.. Wood, was made to this.
Since then, Mr.. Vallandigham made
the following declaration
cor the 18th of last December, when
from the city of Richmond information
came 10 the city Of New York that there
was a disposition TO compromise and re-
turn delegates to the national Congress
and be obedient to the Constitution and
Laws, and thus restore the Union as it was,
the President, on that day, rejected the
proposition, and the damning evidence OF
rejection exists in New York over his own
outograph-but there is an obligation o.
secresy Mt present, and the letter has not
yet been given to the public"
TO this no response whatever, so far al
we have seen, has been made. Is it true
or is it false? If false, that fact can bC
easily demonstrated. But if true, what
fearful responsibility thosowho are drench
ing their country in its best blood, viii
some day have TO meet!

THE NEWS.

There is nothing important from the
Rappahannook. Gen. Stoneman had re-
turned from q ten days expedition with a
large force of cavalry. Nothing specially
important was accomplished.
The advices from Kentucky and Tenn
essee are rather more encouraging-stil!
the rebels are numerous and active around
Nashville.
The rebels are again in force in Missouri
under Gems. Marmaduke and Price.
Gen. Foster having escaped from Wash
ington, N. c., to Newborn, had started
from the latter place with a large force for
the relief of his army at Washington, and
a heavy battle was expected with Gen.
Hills forces.
Nothing new from South Carolina.
Dispatches from New Orleans 10 the
18th inst. we're received at New York,
bringing favorable accounts of the opera
lions of the forces under Gen. Banks to
the West Of New Orleans. The accounts
are so obscure and mixed hat it is diff
cult to tell precisely what has been done.
A sharp engagement had taken place at a
point not far from Franklin, La. The
rebels are sid to have destroyed 10 steam-
boats, stores, &c. An account of another
expedition under Gen. Grover at the head
OF five or six regiments Of New England
troops, attacked two regiments of Texans
and two batteries, defeating them, taking
10000 prisoners in ALL OF course this is
a mistake of a cipher perhaps two o.
them.

The LATE CAPT. WEBSTER Why he Was
Erccatca Jy the RcbelS.-As has already
been stated, Captain Alphons) Webster,
of the third Qoyal) Virginia Cavalry, was
executed It Sichmond on the 10th inst,
for violating his parol, he having taken
up arms against the Confederacy after his
capture and before his exchange. The
Wheeling Intellicencer Union paper
SAYS - baltimore Sun.
Webster obtained a commission as cap
tain OF cavalry from Governor Pierpont in
November last, on q forged letter of rec
ommendation. IN the meantime he was
captured 10y the rebels, was paroled, and
had returned TO his company; but the fact
of the discovery of the forgery having
leaked out, Captain Webster passed with
in the rebel lines to escape a trial 10y a
Federal court martial. 1t Is supposed that,
under these circumstances, he was again
arrested by the rebels, and tried and con-
victed for violating his parole. Not much
is known of Webster beyond what is
above stated. lie was thrown up to the
surface by this rebellion, from somewhere
ir Texas or the West, and was regarded
MS q very ignorant but daring and resolutc
fellow. lie dealt with the rebels without
mercy and without fear, and is reported
10 have killed a rebel officer, not long be-
fore his second arrest, by cutting his throa'

UNITY rtArr

President Linc5ln during he short IN.
roer In The White House, has given iho
country a sutfeii ol rfoclamalions In
some Of which he uttered sentiments AN
becoming the Chief Magistrate Of a great
and independent nation. Amer trying q
number Of inexpedient and improper
measures, he at length seems TO have
struck the right chord, and calls loudly
upon his christian fellow citizens, in bis
late Fast Day Proclamation, to pray for
USiTY \ PEAcE. The clause TO which
We allude is the following, and if uttered
by a "Copperhead' would DO rank treason,
according to the new code Of Abolition
ethics. Hear him:
"Iet us, then, rest humbly in the hope
authorized by the Divine teachings, that
the united cry of the nation will be heard
on high, and answered with blessings, no
less than the pardon Of our national sins,
and the restoration ofour now divided and
suffering country 10 lis former happy condf,
ton Of URuy and peace.
We believe every American heart can
respond to this sentiment, and the indis
viddal who does not want Uniy and Peace,
had better emigrate TO some more genial
cline.
Before parting with this subject we wish
to call the attention of the reader to an
extract taken from the Boston Commons
oeahh, the organ of senator Sumner. In
speaking of the Presidents Proclamation,
the editor says:
at is n cool assumtion of the President
that the pardon of our national sins has
any kind of connection with the r~estora-
ton of our country to its former happy
condition of unity and peace Our own
opinion is, that if God had resolved not TO
pardon us atall, lie would prove it by al
lowing The restoration of that old unity
and peace That unity was crime that
peace worse than wal.
"Ndy the tongue be withered, ere it is an
swered, that prays for a restoration Of that
old state of things from which Godin His
llitlCl bttlllO NllllilE W lNoSiO ho-kIldl
which His ~fiercest wrath could find no
more terrible doom for a blind nation led
by blind rulers"
These are The sentiments OF a LOYAL ed,
itor in Boston-if not of Charles Sumner
himself--who are both in favor Of q ''vie.
orous prosecution of the war" If such
Language was used in the same sense, by
Democrat, he would be tabooed at once
as a Copperhead and an lnfdel but hay
ing been promulgated by a Boston 'loy-
whose forefathers were probably
engaged in hanging women for Witches,
the palmy days of Puritanism, it is
OF course not disloyal nor interfering with
the Government
The Both tomorrow is the day desig-
mated by the President as a day of fasting
and prayer. We hope that none of our
Christian fellow citisens-and especially
the loyal (Abolition) portion-Till fail to
ask Him who ruleth the nations, for the
restoration of our now divided and suffers
ing country TO its former happy condition
of unity and peace" We will guarantee all
who are willing to engage in this particu-
lar duty hat their tongues shall not be
"withered," though such lie the invoca'
ton of the loyal senator from Massaohu-
sets. The people have before them the
request of the President, and the hrea: Of a
loyal (?) Abolitionist-Which will they
obey?
