A SIGN.

In the Congressional proceedings
Of yesterday it is stated that the des-
patch of Assistant Secretary Dana,
announcing our successes in Virgin
ia, was loudly applauded on the Un-
ion side of the House. Do not Op-
position Representatives also rejoice
over the triumphs of our arms? We
fear there are gentleman who boast
necessarily. of their democracy
whose sympathies are with Southern
aristocrats in this great war upon
the rights of the people. Their in
different, not to say saddened, faces
when the news of our successes is
rehearsed in their hearing, indicates
that their hearts do not show that
feeling of exultation which thrills
through the bosoms of the people
over every glorious achievement of
the gallant heroes who are so nobly
upholding the cause Of constitution
al liberty.

MCCLELLAN ARITHMETIC.

The n. Y. World, which is discon
solate at the prospect of success or
any other than MCCLELLAN penin
sular route, says that in the sever
days battles ending with Malvern
McClellans total losses were I5.24G
men, and that then he was within
half the distance from Richmond that
Grant has gained by the loss OF
1000.
We suppose 10000 is a largely
exaggerated figure for Grants losses;
but let that pass. We suppose again
that McClellan's losses-say seven
or eight thousand-at Seven Pines,
should be adde to the cost of his
progress from the Chickahominy to
James river, but we are willing to
take the Worlds calculation.
On the Chickahominy Mcclellan
reported himself five miles from
Richmond. At the close of the
seven days battles he was twenty
five miles from Richmond. If he
lost Is, ,246 men in gaining twenty
miles away from Richmond, how
many would he have to sacrifice to
carry him into Richmond on pro-
of that line of march?

SOMETHING OF A CHANGE.

SOMETHING OF A CHANGE.
A dispatch from Washington, a
week or two ago, said:
"A parade of negro troops in Wash
Ington City, yesterday, attracted
great attention. The ladies waved
their handkerchiefs to them, and
the crowd In the street cheered,
and from the houses shouted to
them to remember Fort Pillow"
This, remember, took place IN
Washington, where few years ago,
Charles Sumner was brutally assault
ed and heated almost to death, for
simply speaking against the iniquIty
of human slavery-where less than
three years ago men and women
were bought and sold like cattle,
and where two years ago a negro
soldier, clad in United States
uniform, would hardly have dared
to appear on the streets. War is
stern and expensive schoolmaster,
but people learn vary rapidly under
its tuition.

The report that General Lee
has asked Lieutenant General Grant
for permission for a truce to bury
his dead, calls forth the following
response from the Philadelphia Press
ofyesterday: ~a-4 ..-.
Grant has always advanced--Lee
has always reureated. We have not
known the first repulse. We hold
every battle-field-we have captur-
ed thousands of prisoners. When
last heard from the work was still
progressing. Grant was then ad
vancing, and, as a general should,
with cannon and bayonet, and all the
stern meaning aad power of war
Lee was on his knees, begging for
time to bury his dead. But in this
cruel war the business of generals is
with the living. and Grant, with an
aptness that recalls Fort Donelson.
replies that he will move immediate
iy upon his lines. Those who find
comfort In condolences will remem-
ber that in the second battle Of Bull
Run, when Lee was hurting his mass
es upon Popes retreating column,
our general sent a flag of truce and
asked for time to bury his dead
Lee replied that he could not permit
any Office of humanity to interfere
with the operations of his army, and
declined the request. This solicita-
ton is good sign.

CONSOLIDATED DEMoC-

The Washington correspondent OF

name of the Mcclellan party in its
latest phrase. 1t is designed TO be
an omHiNns gatherem of the disaffected

Garret Davis, snarling Know Moth

nobodies. like Emerson Etheridge;
soreheaded niggerites, like Senator
Powell; uncompromising secesh, like
Senator Salisbury, ''topped OFF,

Sam Cox order, who has the very
happy political attribute of being
extremely doubtful.
The consolidated fellows are for
Mcclellan first, last and all the time
Some of them don't like him much
better than they do Lincoln. because
he has been identified with the
unholy business of coercion, but
they express a willingness, in the
language of Garret Davis, ''vote for

to get the present usurper out of
office" Fernando and Ben Wood
will not consolidate unless on a
straight out peace platform, which
the wiser Democratic heads know
will not carry single Congressional
District in the country. l should
like to know if the history of Abo-
litionism can produce a case of
miscegenation to equal that of Leslie
Combs going to bed with a Breckin-
ridge Democrat like Mr.. Powell, or
George d. Prentice embracing the
old lady who lives at Wheatland,
and is consolidator. 4
The consolidator will unite for
Mac and Gov. Bramlette, in the Chi
cago Convention, and expect to
carry the whole arrangement by
storm. The Alec Long secesh will
have to take back seat in the syna-
gogue-not that Aleck is any worse
than Salisbury and Powell, but he
has let the copperhead cat out of the
bag, whereas they have kept the
snaky mouser carefully tied up,
though she would persist in an occa.
sional "myou,' to tell the people she
was there.

WASHINGTON, May 21.-A dis
patch from the headquarters of the
Army of the Potomac, says nothing
ofimportance occurred. The wound
ed from the fight of Thursday, were
sent to Fredericksburg during the
day.
The loss was heavier than at first
supposed. About 1.100 of them
were sent to Washington.
A number of wounded rebels were
brought into our hospitals and cared
for, some of whom afterward died
The rebel loss is estimated at 1850
in killed and wounded, besides about
$50 prisoners, who we're sent to
Washington last night.
Sixty citizens of Fredericksburg
have been arrested, and will be sent
to Washington to-day, to be held as
hostages for the sixty of our wound
ed men taken by them and conveyed
to Richmond.
Rebel prisoners continue to be
brought in. About twenty-five were
captured last evening. They give
glowing accounts of the rebel CON-
missariat. and say that General Lee
feels certain of final victory.
