OUR MILITARY BUDGET.
RETALIATION


The announced purpose of the rebel authori.
ties to murder two Union officers in cold blood.
as an act of retaliation for the military exc
cution of the rebel Captains Corbyn and
McGraw, by Gen. Burnside, at Sandusky
Ohio, causes much feeling throughout the
country. We have no doubt that our Govern
ment has ere this forwarded a significant warn
ing to the rebel authorities TO beware how they
carry this brutal threat into execution. Retail
alton Of this kind is not pleasant game for a
civilized people to play at, but il the rebels in
sist upon initiating it, the consequences be upon
their own heads! With the long list of rebel
ofhcers-from Gen Fitzhugh Lee down-iE our
hands, it will not be difficult to match them
victim for victim. But we trust, for the credit
OF humanity, that the menace of the Richmond
authorities will prove to be q mere piece of
bTatam futmea.

that he says to meet and conquer an army of
$4,000 veteran troops is a most serious under
taking, the result being determined not by hu-
man might alone.
Our cavalry drove a considerable force Of
their scouts from the front of Boonsboro' again
last night, through and beyond this neighbour
hood to their intrenchments near Hagerstown.
At 10 o'clock this morning the enemy held

At 22O very heavy and rapid cannonading was
opened upon the rebels, and continued for
about an hour, resulting only in driving them
from the woods, however.

TILE REREI, INSGES

Medical Inspector Nollum reports to Sur
geon General Hammond that there are now in
our hands, at Gettysburg, 10000 rebel wounded
This number will be increased rather than di-
mnished, and the former estimate of 1000 is
now known to have been the meerest guess
work. The rebel losses, during the three bat
ties Of Gettysburg, are, to say unoffi cialIy
footed up at the Surgeon Generals office as
follows:

WASTE OF WATER.-Saturday afternoon, and
until late hour at night, the water was flow
ing from the fire-plug corner of Thirteenth
street and Pennsylvania avenue, in full force.
Several firemen and policemen tried to stop it,
but tailed; and the persons around said that
the plug had been used to sprinkle the street
during the day, and were unable to cut off the
water when done with it. The men employed
on this work should be careful not to iniure the
plugs or hydrants, as there is no telling at what
moment they might be required fer the preser-
yation of property, from fire or other cause

For CoURT.-This morning officer Franklin
arrested Chas. Posey for violent assault and
battery on Eliza Dant, and took him before
Justice Clark for trial. 1t appears that Posey
had been living with Eliza for some time, but
meeting with damsel he liked better, desert
ed Eliza to take up the new one. Eliza could
not bear such treatment, and followed Posey
from place to place, and greatly annoyed him
In moment of yexation, Posey met Eliza and
struck her blow that nearly closed one OF her
eyes. Eliza says that Posey wanted money to
gam BILE with, and because she would not give
it to him he struck her. Justice Clark held
him to bail for court.

CINCINNATI, July l2.-Morgan's raid to-
night reached within seven miles of the Ohio

Some Of the bridges on the Ohio and Missis-

The rebels also approached the Indianapolis
