General Burnside and Secret Political

General BURNtIDEs request that public Jour

general rule, with but little favor from the Alb

their Leagues In open defiance of the Gener-

Three citizens of Maryland serving in the
rebel army have been captured at Rappahan-
mock Ford. As the specifications we're under
the charge of treason to their State, they we're
tried by q military committed, of which Gen.
Sickles was President, convicted and eentonced

tied TO be treated as prisoners Of war and ex-
changed.

To-day our forces are busy from right to left,

just about 90 convenient and commanding af

have within the line we are now attacking, Ia
not known, bat they cannot be extensive. toi
their present line is quite near the city. If the
rebels retire from their present position, they
subject the city to destruction.

In RrAR OF vIokapuRo, May %.

To-day q general charge upon the enemy's
works was ordered aud made, though cannot
yet learn that at any point the works were COM
pletely carried. The singularly rough nature Of
the ground makes It almost impossible to tell
what We have to encounter before US, and rap
idly fatigues the men. But We advance in this
Way steadily, and at each charge our sharp
shooters obtain better field for their opera
lons. Our artillery hastens to geta better po'
sition, small intrenohments being thrown up to
protect it.; and thus We have the curious specta'
Gle of hostile redoubts already frowning upon
each other, at distance of but few hundred
yards. =.
The guns of the rebels reply to our Smelling
but seldom. They are evidently outstanding
their ammunition, for they can now get no
further supply. ] think that they are short OF
artillery, TOO Their redoubts are constructed
for field guns, and within the last three weeks
Gen. Grant has captured about seventy OF these.
In the meantime, we have a new base Of sup
plies from the Yszoo, through which reinforce
ments, provisions, ammunition and heavy guns
can be sent as rapidly as we please.
The rebel force within vicksburg can not now
be more than 10000. Before the fights at Jack,
son they may have had Al, 900, but part Of that
number we forced up northvard, toward Canton
---say 10000. EAt the battle of Midway Hills
(or Champions Hill), on the 18th inst, their
effective force was perhaps $4,000 men. Of
these az least 10000 were killed, wounded,
captured or driven to escape noithward or south
ward, in such a way ss to prevent them from
returning TO Vieksburg.G At the fight on Big
Black, on the Hth, We captnred nearly 3.OO0,
and scattered many more 10 such way that
they are more likely to have struggled home
through the woods than to have reported for
duty. -.b 81 tr 81

A DEsERTER CAUGHT.-Henry Philips,
private in the list Regiment Indiana
Volunteers, left the ranks two or three
months ago without leave or license"
and has been cutting figure among the
butternuts in the vicinity of Buena Vista,
Gibson county, Ind, ever since. He
went heavily armed and declared he
would not be taken, and his friends prom
ised to stand by and protect him. About
two weeks ago an officer undertook to
apprehend him, but found him too
heavily armed and gave up the job.
At Methodist Quarterly Meeting,
held in grove near Buena Vista, Sun
day, June Z, he strolled into the congre.
cation. The Sheriff of Gibson county
was con cealed in the thick wood near by,
and man was employed to watch
Philips as the congregation dispersed.
Fortunately, the Sheriff came upon him
while he vas unarmed, and though
crowd of butternuts stood by the deserter
- ----;-1 If xii. ha,at-Ea
When he was gone his friends, to the
number of twenty-five or thirty, gathered
and proposed to follow and rescue him
from the officer, but finally gave up the
project
They expressed their extreme disgust
in terrible hard words, at the upright
eous proceeding, and they all were par
ticularly shocked that it should be done
on Sunday, when Philips and all ofthem
were doing their best to be pious.
