It is O wondrous advautade to man.

which are rarely combined to an equal

really your friend, will have q sensitive
regard for your character. honor, repute.
She will seldom counsel you to do o
shabby thing, for woman friend always
desires to be proud Of you. At the

makes her more cautious than your male

General Meade.

Gen. Meade, the successor of Gen. Hooker
is already pretty well know to the country
as corps commander in the Army of the
Potomac. He has not figured quite promi-
nently as some others, though his corps (the
Fifth army corps) is second in d discipline and
condition to none in the army, and wherever
it has been on duty, has been handled with
skill second to none. 1t did not actively
parcipitate in the late battle Of Chancellor
ville-the First and Fifth Corps having been
held as reserves. The confidence of all the
corps commanders and of all the officers OF
the army is very high; and we may now state
that after the late battle of Chancellorville
his appointment to supercede Gen. Hooker
was urged by every corps commander, with,
perhaps one exception. There is no doubt
he will be loyalty and warmly supported by
the officers OF the army. as he was certainly
the ono whom they designated as their first
choice. The next officer In rank to General
Hooker was himself desirous that Gen. Meade
should be his cheif His intellectual charac
terstics are sagacity, decision and firmness,
with, of course, all the other soldierly quail
fi,ations, and be has also education and ex-
perieuce.-Ne,o York Times.
Gen. Meade is far better known in the Ar
my Of the Potimac than public, though his
reputation with the latter is high. No gen.
eral possesses more-we think none 80 much
of the confidence Of that army, and especi-
ally Of its generals. He is an officer OF ex-
traordinary energy and unquestionable de-
votion to the cause which the army now un-
der his command must defend from deadly
imminent peril. His services in the present
war have been conspicuous, yet his capacity
to handle a large army, aud that army In
such position as the army of the Potomac
is at present, is to be proved by trial only.
The time is past when personal partialties
can be indulged. The question is: Who shall
save the Republic 2 In the earnest hope that
Gen. Meade may be equal to the vast respon-
siblity just resting on him, we bid him GoD

FREDERICK. Md. July 10.--Fr0m refugees
arrived here tonight, who left Hagerstown
this morning, I learn that the enemys force
is about $4,000 men aud about $50 pieces
of artillery My informant states that the
wagon train of Gen. Lee cannot number
less than 5000 wagons, and are on the road
from Hagerstown to Williamsport and
Shepherds ford. The river is still very high
and the whole rebel army is on this side.
| WASHINGTON. July 10.-Rumors are
rife here that Beauregard has passed down
the Shenandoah Valley with 40. 900 men
to reinforce Lee.
Headquarters Army of the Potomac
July l0'-A vigorous artillery and cav
airy fight took place this morning over
Autietam creek. preparatory to the ex-
peoted Conflict, the cavalry Of Buford
aided by Fitzpatrick on the left flank of
'ho enemy, from the village Of Benorola
on the road from Boonsboro to Hagers-
town. driving him three miles beyond
Beaver creek. This morning sharp
skirmishing continued with equal success
until the enemy rested in strong force
ear Funkstown.
The artillery was then replaced by fresh
batteries. To detail positions, and locality
Of the corps would be improper. 1t is
thought the enemy will make vigorous
stand to cross a portion of their forces, which
will enable Our army to attack them with
ease in their rear and they will probably re-
sist taking chances of victory or disorgan-
zation.
6p. m.-The utmost activity now pre-
walls in the army of Potomac. A desertsr
who came into our lines last night reports
that Lee has but single bridge across the
river near Williamsport, and has succeeded
in getting his ammunition and supplies, al
though he could not move his army over it
with safety or expedition. He reports Lee
as now fortified. His artillery placed and
ready to give battle whenever we attack him.
He thinks Leo has about $4,000 efectual
men. They are still hopeful of conquering
US and think it was about an even thing at
Gettysburg.
Men in the rebel army have not heard
of the fall of Vicksburg. Lee is evident.
ly drawing to the wall and will fight
his men to the bitter end.
Gen. Meade says, to meet and conquer
an army of $4,000 veteran troops is
serious undertaking. the result being de-
termined not by human might alone.
At 10 o'clock this morning the enemy
hold the right of hgerstown and our forces
the left. At 2.2O very heavy and rapid cam
nonading was opened upon tho rebels and
was continued for about one hour, resulting
only in driving them from the woods.
New YORK, July l1.-A Times Special
dated Antietam bridge, July 10 8 p. m. says:
Our cavalry forced the rebels advance back
to Funkstown on the right and beyond Ba-
kersville on the left. The enemy is in force
and shows fght.
There will probably be battle to-
morrow.
Boonsboro July 1.-THE two armies
are confronting each other. Tho rebel
limo extends to tho river.

An Active Communicated bad Shot.

Sir Hugh Rose, the hero Of the Central
Indian campaign, has lately paid one or
two flying visits to our quiet station; the
last few days ago. The natives were, |
dare say, SLOW to believe that the traveller
who entered the cantonment on a rough,
bullock dandy, and looked 50 worn, and
tagged, and dusty, could really be the great
general, who had made the rebels tremble
at his coming.
Sir Hugh has the appearance
of having suffered much in health from the
hardship and exposure Of the last terribly
trying campaign, but nothing will abate his
indomitablc energy and activity. The work
he cut out for himself for one day here,
was, first a visit to DowIutabad in handy,
over such roads as no untraveled English
mind can conceive Of; the exploration OF
the fortress; ride ten miles farther to eX-
anime the EIlora Caves-in itself q very
hard days work; and to crown all, jour
ney Of seventy miles, during the night and
following morning, to Ailmednuggur. The
fact of the presence Of hot tropical sun
during great part of the performance
lends to its details an emphasis which those
alone who know India can appreciate. An
officer passing through the station the other
day gave us some characteristic anecdotes
Of Sir Hugh which, as they belong to his
military career, trust | may retail with
out any violation of the Sanctities of pri-
vate life.
At Jansi he came into the works at six
o'clock one morning, and having long oc-
cupied himself with their examination, at
nine he was asked by some OF those pres
ent to take some breakfast, which had
been prepared there. mo, thank you !;

AT Rafgbnr, I think it was, he persisted
in standing in a spot where he was expos
ed to perpetual fire from q man who had
been seen, repeatedly and deliberately, to
take aim at him from the Fort Sir Hugh
was leaning his head on his arms, calmly
looking over the wall. He was requested
to move to a more protected point, where,
it was observed, he could see just as well.
''No thanks, I am very well here" and
while he spoke, *'ping, ping" rang the
shril bullets close to his head "What a
