ployed IN the punishmcnt Of the wozst

Nothing new from the War in Tennessee.
All is quiet at Chattanooga. Our special
dispatches give some graphic hints Of rebel
barbariams. The official returns Of the
late battlcs are elsewhere announced
The report on the condition Of the freed
men, and the new experiment Of free labor
on the Lower Mississippi, is highly en-
couraging, ~ given in our Washington

that black can be profitable laborer

From the War in Virginia We have sig

Are We soon again to be told that Wash

EKUHAKGE OF PRISONERS.
sT1.. la~.vs11 Eul - +1,;, xno-~:1 ~:

EXCHANGE OF PRISONERS.
The reader will find in this mornings
TRIBUNE lucid statement Of the question
Of exchange Of prisoners, from Maj. Gen.
Hitchcock. Reduced To its simplest form
the mstter Of difference may be thus sta
ted: We hold 10000 unexchanged rebels,
and they hold IL; 600 Federal soldiers They
insist that we shall send to them the 40,-
600 prisoners we hold, and receive in lieu
thereof the 1900 they hold, by which we
would be cheated $1,000. Furthermore,
they insist upon the right Of hanging our
colored soldiers and their white officers
that may be taken prisoners. As to the
1000 nexchanged rebels, they modcssly
propose to receive them on parole, pledged
not to bear arms until duly exchanged.
But VIC remember the bad faith practised
on Us recently, in relation to the Vicksburg
prisoners, some Of whom were captured at
Chattanooga, that had never been ex-
changed The $4,000 rebels, if given back
tothe Confederates, would be declared ex-
changed, and put Into their armies to fight
us again. Our Government must not com.
ply with the demands Of these dishonorable
and t1eacherous insurgents.

movements on the potomae.

WAsHINoToY, July 19.-The rebel
army has not made as rapid progress
toward CuIpeppcr as has been general
ly supposed. There is good reason for
stating that the bulk Of Lees army is
in the vicinity of Winchester.
There was also quite rebel force at
Bunker Hill; which was between Win
chester and Martinsburg, yesterday.
1t would be improper TO state where
Gen. Meade's army is, but there is yet
good ground to hope that they may
complete the destruction Of the remains
Of the rebel army.
PHILADELPHIA, July 2O.-The In
quirer has q dispatch from Hagera-
town, 18th, stating that the rear guard
of Lees army left Martinsburg on Sat
urday morning. Our whole force is
across the river,
The Potomac is falling rapidly. Lee
is retresting his main force by Stras.
burg and Stanton, not by Culpepper.

p1~The above from the Gazette
charges that the negro recruits here
who enlisted to fight for their country,
were assailed with stones by Copper
head (Democrat) rowdies.-Edgle.
If the Eagle will read the article
which it copies, it will find that the
word Democrat does not occur. We
said "Copperhead rowdies." Let us,
once for all, explain what we mean by
Copperhead and what by Democrat
A Copperhead is one who sympathises
with the rebellion, who prefers his par
ty organization to his country, and who
hopes that the Federal arms may be de-
featod IN order that their party may be
preserved. A Democrat is one who
stands by his government against all
enemies, foreign or domestic, and a.
gainst all parties, and who in times like
the present ignores party and unites
with all patriots for the single purpose
of maintaining the authority of the
government. Brough, Johnson Dick
inson, Holt, Mcclellan, Burnside, Col
Connell, &c. are Democrats. Vallan
digham, Wood, Pugh, McMasters, Me.
Diary, &c are Copperbeads. And there
are many honest men in Fairfield coun.
ty who are misled by the Coppcrhead'
and deceived into voting the Copper.

Gen. Sherman ordered o charge on

The Independent Company, Captain
CLARKE has been disbanded by the
Adjntant General. This was done upon
thelet%er of the Military Committee
representing that they could endorse
the officers and men of the compa-
ny, but that number Of men joined
it under misapprehension. The Mil
itary Committee, we think, have acted
with undue haste in the absence Of hal
the company, and the dissatisfied mem
bers are not as numerous by one-hal
as represented to the Committee. II
would have been an easy matter to re
lease all the dissatisfied mcmbers with
out disbanding the whole Company,
The thing which we most regret
about it is that many ofour friends have
been led to do the very thing which .
nest of three Or four Copperheads labor
ed SO hard and vainly to do on the
morning of the 14th, before the Com
pany started to Camp Chase. The
Company cares nothing about its enc
mics, but it hopes to be saved from its
friends.
The Company will be re-organizec
