Lee Not Retreating to Rich.
InOnI.

The usually well-informed Baltimore cor.
respondent Of the New York World writes
under date of the 9th, that, because Gen
LEE is % near Richmond, it need not be
supposed that be is falling back to the de-.
fences Of that city. Whatever, he says,
may be the event Of the maneuvres Of the
next few days, Gen. LEES army will not
retreat to Richmond, nor will the army I'm
der his immediate command take any
part in the immediate defence Of the rebel
capital. Heestimates.the strength o! Less
army on the South Anna at one hundred
and t,renty-fce thousand men. This cor
respondent then predicted that Gen. GRANT
would be compelled to do precisely what
he has done, viz: move his army to Hano.
yer c. H, South of the Pamunkey, and
thus again flank Les. He said that Gen.
LEE himself believed that the question Of
supplies alone would compel GRANT to this
course, that he might thereby secure q
water base for his supplies, which will en-
able him to receive them With expedition
and absolute safety.
1t is understood to be Gen. LEES inten-
ton to assail GRANTS army either in flank
or aear, either at Hanover or at some point
between there and the Chickahominy. Gen.
GRANT may expect to be joined at some
point North or East of Richmond by the
forces >nominally under Butler, but this
Gen. LEE has anticipated aud prevented
1t is said, that eversince Bull ER's disgrace
full defeat and retreat on the 10th, General
BEAuREcARp has pressed him so hard that
all he can do is to act on the defensive.
Another correspondent If the World,
writing from Washington, says that all Of
the available rebel forces in North and South
The daily register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1863-1864, 1864-06-01

Carolips and Florida, have been brought
to the rescue Of Richmond, in the vicinity
of which they are now entampsd. These
forces form an aggregate Of about twenty
five thousand men oil veterans, and ART
considered by the rebels, with the addition
of the militia, to be sufficient for the de-
fence Of their capital. Major General HoKE,
the youngest of all the Confederate ON
GERS, is at the head of this corps, which, TO-
gether with the troops under Gen. Ellie
located in the vicinity Of Hanover Y. !;
those under General PICKETT and HILL
around Petersburg, and the militia OF Klcn'
mond, may form an army Of about n''y
thousand men, all uuder the immediate con
troll of BEAuREeARD.
The correspondent says that in Richmond
people appear to have the utmost conn
dence in the ultimate success OF Zen. LEE
and of Gen. JOHNSTON. They look upon
the battles they have fought as substantial
successes, If not glorious victories, ana up
on their retreat in the interior OF Virgl MA
and Georgia, as step calculated to COM
plete our defeat. In word, they say toa'
an advance in these two states, far from our
bases Of operations, in the midst OF an un. .
known country, at the close of a series Of
conflicts which must necessarily have less
ened the efficiency and thu morals OF our
soldiers, is piece Of madness which will
bring about tho destruction of our armies.
Perhaps this language is but way OF dis
guising their own fears; perhaps, weakened
by the desperate resistance they have made,
the falling back of LEE and JOHNSTON, was
piece of compulsory strategy, which does
in no way involve the deep designs which
public opinion lends to the TWO officers
However aud whatever may be the view
taken of their movement, the contraction
of tha rebel lines and the distances we are
compelled to put between our basis OF sup
ply aud our advancing columns, are OF real
advantage to the two gen erals.

A Mob Dispersed BY a Joke.

When an officer OF the government OF the
revolution, the first Napoleon had been order
ed out 10 dlsperse a body oi rioters. Having.
drawn up his soldiers and some guns across
the street, he waited their advance. They at
length appeared, sweeping down on him and
his party like a roaring torrent. The artil-
lerymen, with their port fires, stood ready al
his signal TO ponr showers OF grape into the
body OF the mob. Unwilling to She'd blood,
he stepped out from his men to reason with the
suffering and misguided people, and soon
found himself ris-d-ris with their head-a
virago of a woman, whose appearance pre-
ssnted L remarkable contrast to his own.
She was OF great size, and enormously fat,
while he, always very little, was at that time
so thin, as well as small that he was known
by the sobriquet Of "La Petit Corporal He
demonstrated with this lady; but she replied
with voliey OF abuse-ielling him that while
she and other honest, hard working people
were starving, such idle fellows as he and his
soldiers. were fattening on the best of the
land. With that eagle eye and remarkable
promptitnde which afterwards turned the fate
of many a battlefield, Napoleon saw at once
the weak point of his adyersarys position.
he paused till she was out of BREATH Then
taking on his hat, be bowed to the mob and
placing bis own thin figure beside that of his
ia. opponent, be asked them 10 say, whether
the good lady or he looked u ost like starving.
AS happens in more respectable assemblies
than mobs, and elsewhere than in witty France.
good natured joke won the day; and the
people, for time at least, quietly dispersed.
Good Words.
