DEATH OF Son OF DIX. JEwEIT.--A phi
vate letter from Dr. Charles Jewett, the (wel-
known temperance lecturer, now laboring at
the West, lhas been received at the Temperance
Rooms in Boston in which the Doctor
says:
You remember my son John who used TO
fold papers in the office sometimes. He fell
in the battle of Chckamauga, Georgia, after
serving the country faithfully as soldier for
about two years. lie fought in the battle of
Perryvile, sometimes called Chaplain Hills !;
also in the three days, battle at Murlreesboro
lie was never in hospital a day, and never
struggled from his regiment, or gave out in all
the long weary marches. He maintained his
standing as a Christian, and as II friend of
temperance kept his pledge inviolate. 1t
made our hearts ache 20 see his name among
the killed; but how small the afiliction in
comparison with what it would be to have
him die in drunken debauc, or by the road
side with a whiskey bottle in his pocket

o. The friends of Gen. Fremont are con-
graduating themselves, that in the retirement
OF Rosecrans, the last Of his active enemies
disappears from the field of action. The Blairs
read out of their party and conservative Rose
Grams displaced, are the avenges of time. They
now look to see Halleck superseded in form
as be Is In fact. Rosecrans, it will be remem-
bered, refused to serve under Fremont in the
mountain epartment.-[ Newburyport Herald
The friends of Gen. Fremont are almost uni
versally the friends of Rosecrans. If there
were professional jealousies existing between
these brave generals the public know but little
about them. They did not differ on important
national questions.

RICHMOND, May 10 P. M.-The fol-

Charlottesville, May To His Eacs'
lency President Davis: After driving
sedgewick across the Rappahannock, on
the night Of the 4th, / returned on the 5th
to Charlottesville, my march being de-
layed by storn which continued all the
night following. On placing my troops in
position this morning, the 9th, We encoun.
tered no attack: General Hooker was as.
certained to have abandoned his fortified
position. A line of skirmishers pressed
forward until they came within range Of
the enemies batteries, which halted North
of the Rappahannock, which, from confg:
uration of ground, completely commanded
this side. His army therefore escaped with
The loss of few additional prisoners.
