A Washington dispatch Of July 18th
says: Medical Inspector Nolan reports to
Surgeon General Hammond that there are
now in our hands at Gettysburg ten thous.
and rebel wounded. This number will be
increased rather than diminished. The
rebel losses in the three days battle at Get
tysburg are unoficially footed up 1t the
Surgeon Generals Office as follows: Left on
the field and in our hands wounded, ten
thousand; slightly wounded and taken
away BY the rebels, four thousand; killed
on the field and buried by our forces, thirty
Eve hundred taken prisoners by our forces
twelve thousand; deserters and stragglers,
four thousand Union wounded now on the
field. about eight thousand, being removed
slowly.
The Cincinnati Commercial has Vicks.
burg advices to the 9th. Gen. Grant had
finished paroling prisoners. They number
31,277.
Immediately after the surrender Of Vicks-
burg Gen. Sherman moved in tie direction
of Big Black river with large army. On
the following day he met Johnston drawn
up in line of battle. A sanguinary engage.
ment took place, resulting in Johnston 8
defeat and the capture of 1000 prisoners.
Gen. Frank Blair is reported in posses
sion of Jackson.
A rumor is iu circulation that Port Hud-
son surrendered to Banks on the 5th, with
Il, 900 men.
The Commercial says an arrival last night
direct from Kosecrans' headquarters reports
the main body of Bragg's army has retreat
cd from Chattanooga to Atlanta. The
presumption is that the bulk of his forces
have been sent to Richmond to garrison
that place.
Rosecrans has taken four thousand pris-
oners during the late forward movement,
and our army is in high spirits and splen-
did condition.

Presideut's Reply to the vallandigham Committee.
Lincoln's reply to the committee who
waited on him to ask the release Of Val.
landigham, after an argument in defense of
his course, concludes:
l send you duplicates of this letter in
order that you, or a majority of you, as
you may choose, shall endorse the following
propositions:
First. That there is rebellion now in the
United States, the object of which is to
destroy this Union, and that in your opinion
the army and navy are constitutional means
for suppressing the rebellion.
Second. That no one of you will do any.
thing which will, in his judgment, tend to
hinder the increase or favor the decrease or
lessen the efficiency of the army and navy
while engaged in the effort to suppress that
rebellion.
Third. That each of you will, in his
sphere, do all you can to have the officers,
soldiers, sailors and seamen of the army
and navy, while engaged in the effort to
suppress tho rebellion, paid, fed, clad and
otherwise we'll provided for and supported.
The majority signing will be revocation
order relating to Mr.. Vsllandigham. The
President says, do this because he is not
present to speak for himself; hence, shall
expect on returning, that he will not put
himself practically in antsgonism with the
position Of his friends.
To which the committee replied, that
however just the undersigned might regard
the principles contained in the propositions
submitted by the President or how much
soever they might, under other ciroumstan-
ces, feel inclined 10 endorse the sentiments
contained therein, yet they assure him that
they have not been authorised to enter into
bargains and conditions with the President
to procure the release of Vallandigham.
The opinions of the undersigoed touching
the questions involved in these propositions
arc we'll known, and are sufficiently manifest
in the resolutions of the convention, and
cannot suppose that the President seeks to
discharge Vallandigham BY pledge.
This is not only an imputation upon
their own sincerity and fdelity as citizens,
but also carries with it by implication, con-
session of legality of his arrest, trial and |
which they and the convention
they represent have solemnly protested, and
while they ask the revocation Of banish- |
ment not as favor bat as right due the |
people of Ohio, aud with . view to avoid
possibility Of disturbance Of the public
tranquility they do not do this, nor does
vaiiandlgham desire it, or any sacrifice Of
heir dignity or self-respect.

Gen. NJ. w. Delahay, Surveyor General
of Kansas and Nebraska, received on Fri
day letter from four of his deputy sur.
veyors-Hackbusch, Hathorn, Black and
dated Fort Kearney, stating that
they had been advised by the commandant
of that post and others, not to attempt to
60 on with their surveys in that region, Is
there was trouble between the Indian tribes.
They state that there is on the Republican
a force of seven thousand Indians, made up
of Sioux, Cheyennes, Camanches, Arrap-
pahoes and Kiowas, who are determined to
chastise the Pawnees, who are on their own
reservation. These tribes declare that they
will make war on the whites if an attempt
is made to carry their designs into execu-
tion. There are two companies of Nebras.
ka militia protecting these Pawnees, and
the surveyors ask that the Surveyor General
use bis influence with the commander of
that Department to have them Withdrawn.
The Pawnees, as is well known to all who
have travelled the plains, are the meanest
thieves cxtant. Knowing that the govern
ment is bound by treaty to protect them,
they have for long time past, made incur
sions upon their neighbors and been guilty
of all sorts of rascality, and return to their
reservation in safety. That they merit
punishment no one will deny.
Gen. Delahay has written to the head of
that Department to get him to withdraw
those troops and thus prevent collision.
Should war break out on the plains, there
would be general massacre of whites who
are now on their way to the Pacific, and
the surveyors who are running lines in the
Northern portions of Kansas and Nebraska.

NEW York, July lS.
A mob at the Third Avenue CONSUMPTION
Office drove of the officials and fred the
buildings The whole block is in flames.
The mob refused 10 allow the 6remen to
work. They also destroyed the telegraph
wires, The Regulars at Governors Island
we're sent for.
A Buffalo dispatch of the l4th says:
The wires in New York City are not yet
repaired. News from the riot is to six last
evening. At that time the mob was re-
ported to have increased to three thousand.
It appears to have been preconcerted plan
of resistance to CONSUMPTION, as all the
working men from the different railroads
combined, together with those of certain
factories, marched to enrolment quarters,
Third Avenue. At half-pa ten yesterday
morning the crowd rushed in, seized the
books and papers aud used great violence
towards the officers. Soon afterwards the
building was burned.
Women were also in the mob inciting
them on. The police detachments sent to
the ground were overpowered and horribly
beaten. Supt. Kennedy was SO badly in
iured that fears are entertained that he will
not recover.
A detachment of seventy.fve Of the pro-
vost guard armed and drew mp in line
between Forty fourth and Forty-tifth streets
but were quickly surrounded by the mob,
who stoned and jeered them. The soldiers
fired into the mob, when they we're set upon
driven of, and pursued about mile. One
man was caught and beaten to death by
both men and women fends; another was
actually torn to pieces, thrown into ditch
and bis body stoned until half buried.
Another squad Of police arrived, and were
also driven of, one was killed and another
badly injured. The mob tore up iron
fences and armed themselves. About three
o'clock procession of ruf6aus, thieves and
women, armed with clubs, bars of iron and
pistols, marched up First Avenue, threat
ening all connected with the CONSUMPTION.
The arsenal was threatened, but the pres
ence of detachment of the 10th regiment
prevented an attack. Howitzers were sta
toned there and at the Seventh regiments
srmory, loaded with canister, to be used on
the first demonstration. At o'clock three
thousand armed men marched down Eighth
Avenue groaning for conscription.
Gov. Seymour was expected to arrive in
the city last evening. Mayor Opdyke has
issued his proclamation against rioters.
Measures have been taken by Gen. Wool
which will probably prove effectual in quel-
ling the disturbance.
Every negro who has been seen by the
mob has been either killed or cruelty beat
en-. Some twenty have been killed.
Latest advices say the scene Of the riot
is in the Irish and Dutch locality.
An Albany dispatch of the 14th says {:
Telegraph to New York is still unobatruct-
ed. About seven last evening crowd
gathered around the Tribune Office and
commenced yelling, and few men attacked
and gutted the publication Office, but we're
dispersed by the police after firing a few
shots.
