to destroy the National Union; and that, in
your opinion, On Army and Navy are constitu-
tional means for suppressing that rebellion.
2. That no one Of you will do anything
which, in his own judgment, will tend to him

exchanged. or paroled until their exchange
can be effected. The only exception allowed
is the case of the commanders OF TWO opposing

mutually agreed upon by said commanders

and men have been paroled and released IN the
field BY others that commanders OF opposing
armies. and than the sick and wounded IN nos
nitals have been SO paroled and released, IN
order to avoid guarding and removing tnem'
which in many cases would be Impossible
Such paroles are in violation Of General ORDERS
and the stipulations Of the cartel, ana are 1lun
and void They are not regarded by the. enc.

gives such parole will be returned TO duty

and rank the battles as the most desperately
contested Of the war. The estimates OF the
casualties differ widely, but the joint losses are
placed by none lower than forty Thousand; yet
This nay prove an exaggeration, as IS generally
the case Of the first reports alter great battle.
The intelligence from the seat OF war IS TO the
effect that the Confederate army commenced
it's retrograde movement towards the Potomac
On Saturday night, and that small cavalry
force passed through Emmittsburg on Sunday
morning, supposed to be the rear guard. Skin
rnishes are reported with the rear later IN the
3ay, anu some prisoners are said to have been
captured. Two Of the wagon trains OF the
retreating army are also reported as captured,
and another pontoon bridge across the Potomac
81 Dam No. 4 destroyed. The main body OF
ne Federal army was in motion on Sunday,
and every elaration was being made to IN
tercept the Confederates before they reached
the Potomac. A later dispatch, dated Freder-
lex, Yesterday afternoon, states that heavy
firing was heard on Sunday afternoon in the
direction of Monterey and Greencastle, which
is reported to have been caused by the FEEDER
al forces pressing upon the Confederate rear,
which, being strongly posted, checked the pur-
suit, About fifteen hundred Confederate prls-
oners have arrived in Frederick. 1t is beleV-
ed that the reported destruction Of the Con-
lederate pontoon bridge at Wlliamsport is
mistake, originating in the fact that the bridge
at Falling Waters, or Dam No. 4, was des
troyed, The bridge at Williamsport was ap-
preached by the same party who destroyed the
other, but finding it strongly guarded the enter
prise was aba ndoned

the jar Of Federal mortars; the chimney OF his

threatening each moment to knock both his
newspaper form and his own human form d.

United States Senator.

Notwithstanding the confident predictions
of the Republican press to the contrary, we
are enabled this week to announce to our
readers, what we feel confident will give every
true Democrat thrill of pleasure, the cleo
tion of Hon. CHARLES l.. BUCSALEw, OF this
district, to the Senate of the United States
-All the plotting, intriguing and corrupt ap-
pliances of the Abo!ilonists, under the lead
of their "chlef'' Simon Cameron, failed 10
thwart the stern will of the people in the
choice of their representative. to what should
be, and will be, when pruned of its corrupt
and fanatical mem bers-the most exalted, de-
Lucrative body in the world.
With all the extravagant praise so lately
bestowed upon proViso David, at the expense
of his conservative colleague, Cowan; the
claims of that wheaSing. old Abolition tyrant
from Bradford, were quietly ignored and the
slippery Simon, with the Mlddetwon Bank at
his back, was placed upon the track. Sim,n
has but just returned from St. Petersburg, at
an expense Of something over $l5 900 TO the
Government, and had, no doubt, forgotten all
about the depreciation Of Middletown Bank
notes, which are now, compared with money,
worth about ttty-two cents on the dollar
With this depreciation they have lost their
potent charms and their owner his wizard
powers to control the votes of the represen-
tatives of the people. Alas! poor Simon.
He'll have TO wig-wag back to Russia again.

In the election OF CHARLES r. BUCKALEw,
the Keystone of the once unbroken arch has
secured one ofthe ableSt and purest men of
the country. A man worthy to occupy the
place dignified by the presence OF the Web
sters, Calhouns, Clays, and Bentons of the
past age. The deluge of puritanical fanatic
ism so threatening to this country, has reach
ed its highest point. The election of BUC6A-
LEW of Pennsylvania, Of RICHARDSON Of Iih-
nois, OF WALL of New Jersey to the Senate
Of thess sUnted States, and of HoRATIo SEY
MoUR to the Gcvernorshlp of New York, are
as SO many separate olive branches sent into
the ark. Hope for their country, will soon
revive in the breasts OF the people. The cor
morants that have been feeding uponts yltals
and sucking its very life blood, will be driven
from its mp'ileted, quivering, exhausted
body, into IT. eternal shades of infamy and

Letcher OH LINCOLN.

A New York paper Of the 18th inst, con-
tains portion of the Message of Gov. Letch-
er, recently delivered to the Virginia Legisla-
ture. The concluding part is as follows:
Nothing but a pure love of freedom could
have induced officers and men, women and
children, to make the unparalleled sacrifices
which have characterized this unnatural war,
brought npon us by one whom accident ele-
vated to the Presidency of the United States
in the memorable year 1860. Abraham Lin
colin stands this day, in the estimation of the
people who constituted a part Of the United
States, and before the world, as the Justly
detes'cd author of the rum uf his country,
and IL answerablt for the blood that has been
shed and the lives that have been lost upon
the fields cf battle. He and those who cle-
waited him to power, inauSurated this reyo!u-
ton, and upon him and them will rest the
curses of the present and OF coming genera
tons. As be has sown so let him reap. On
his retirement from tn. Presidency, doom
more fearful than that OF Devergoll awaits
him.2-Er.

e A bill offered in Congress to reduce
the duty on foreign paper, few days since
was smothered by the committee to whom
it was referred The duty being IS per cent,
with the present high rates of exchange, op-
crates as an absolute prohibition on its i'm
portation. 1t is charged that this strange
action Of the Congressional Committee is
owing entirely to certain influences brought
to bear on them, by the principal paper max
ers who lately held secret meeting in New
York. These manufacturer, are making for
tunes out of the hard working printers and
certain Congressman Of the Simmons stripe
are getting rich by taxing the knowledge cf
the people. II there ever was more corrupt
nest Of plunderers and fanatics gathered togeth

gress, we have failed to find uny record of IT
