mored dispatches were rctailcd at second

cause in Virginia. But last nights news
puts better phase on the affair. The sore

on one side. Tie rebels are not
wholly given up TO exultation. Hookcr's

from our reporters at the East.
A dispatch announces the capture Of

The trial Of Vallandighnm concluded
yesterday. That arch traitor deded

dic'an Of Gen. Burnside. 4 failure
to deal With this traitor as lie deserves,
would Ec equal to a reverse to our army
in the field. We write this advisedly.

Tic dispatches say that The Government
are about to issue IN order sending South
