RUMORs.--From Camden letters of late date,
and other sources worthy of credit, we collect
the following dts:
A telegraph from Shreveport to district head
quarters (17th) says that Lee has captured two
entire army corps of Grants army. The Chi
cago Times (date not given) says it is rumored
that Lee fanked Grant and cut up two of his
army corps completely--having left Beauregsrd
that Grants expedition was not as successful as
they expected it to be.
Pagan has captured a small transport near
South Bend, and 80 prisoners.
Shelby, who had been at Oil Trough Bottom
reinforcing from so to 100 men every day, is re-
ported to have whipped the Federals badly at
Peach Orchard Gap. Five transports of their
wounded troops passed down White river
Steele had sent ambulances under flag of truce
after the remainder.
Gold in New York 1913. Since the reception
of the latest American news the Confederate
loan has risen two per cent. in London. So say
the New Orleans papers.
These rumors are all transmitted to US through
respectable parties who place confidence in them
but not knowing how they originated. we can
not vouch fer their truth. Our readers are en-
titled to hear them. and form their own judg-
ment We think it entirely probable that they
are all true in the main.

The following extracts are from Coppcrhead
journal published in Pennsylvania:
We can scarcely go into house in the North
where some Of thu property Of Southern ladies
is nOt seen in the possession Of women who
have sent forth their brethren and friends to

North, ard W. have heard threats from females
whcn the most brutal soldier in the army would

LATEsT.-Letters received by Courier
from Camden, (20th inst.,) contain the
following:
Despatch received from Shreveport,
La, that Lee has driven Grant back to
White House, with the loss of $4,000
prisoners (killed and wounded not given
and that Grant is now trying to get to
the south of Richmond, our weakest
point.
Forrest, Polk and Lee met up with
Grierson and Sturgis near Corinth, and
captured 1000 of their forces, all their
cannon except three or four field pieces,
and also $50 wagons, and followed them
up nearly to Memphis, where they were
reinforced by Gen. Smith, who was
passing up the river at the time.
The Memphis papers admit loss of
5000 men with the train and cannon.
Johnston is reported to have fallen
hack within 5 miles of Atlanta, with
shout 10000 men, where he intended to
fight.

Washington Displioa to Cincinnati Gazette
SPRING FIaHzs At NAsrINoroS-RouND
Washington, May 25.-The fol
lowing is believed to be q strictly ac-
curate account of the disgraceful as
saut last night on Senator Chandler, in
the public dining hall Of the National
Hotel:
Mr.. Chandler, with DR. Clark, of De-
troit, and lady with her two children,
were taking dinner at side table. In
the course Of conversation on political
matters, he denounced in strong terms
copperheads generally, and particularly
those Of the Western States. Mr.. Voor-
hees, Of Indiana, was sitting at another
table behind him, with Mr.. Hannegan,
also Of Indiana. Mr.. Voorhees, arose
from his seat and approached Chandler
in an excited manner, demanding wheth-
er he referred to him, TO which he re-
piled Who are you, Sir? | don't
know you !" at the same time rising
from his chair. Voorhees, replied al
am Voorhees, of Indiana" and suiting
the action to the word, struck Chandler
on the side of the face. The two then
closed, and Chandler was rapidly get
ting the better Of voorhees,, when Han
negan cane TO the latter's assistance
with heavy milk pitcher, sna.cled from
the table, which he broke on Chandler's
head The contents Of tie pitcher
splashed over the whole company
Chandler was stunned BY the blow, and
had not fully recovered himself, when
Hannegap dealt MIN second blow with
a chair. At this juncture the spectators
intcrfered, and the belligerents were
separated. Chandler's head was slight
ly cut by the pitcher, and his shoulder
and arms were considerably bruised by
the chair. Though not able to close his
hand, be has been out to-day attending
to his usual duties. VOORHEES, is quite
as large man as Chandler, probably a
little heavier. Persons seated at the
table are positive that Chandler made
no use Of Voorhc es' Iame and no refer
ence whatever to him personally.
Thatwas an appropriate we apon used
by Voorhees, friend. They are " milk
and water set.

VICTORY IN TENNEssEE.-We have seen
two letters from gentlemen in Monticello, dated
the 18th inst They concur in stating that a
gentleman had reached that place from beyond
the river, bringing the Chicago Times of the
llth snd Memphis paper of the 18th. He
also brings the news that battle had occurred
near Guntown (Which is in the vicinity of Ger
7nantown snd Colliersville) between cur forces
under Polk and Forrest, and large force of the
enemy commanded by Sturgis aud Grierson 1t
is said we captured eight or ten thousand pris-
oners, thirty pieces of artillery and one hun
dred and eighty wagons, besides demolisking
entirely two or three negro regiments Only
500 cavalry of the enemy escaped, with four
pieces of artillery. Forrest was said to be with
IN fifteen or twenty miles Of Memphis at last
accounts. We give this report as We receive it,
but 90 not know how much of it was in the pa

IMPREsSING-THE RIGHT AND THE WRONG
WAY.-Considering the sacred protection ever
extended to the right of property in times of
peace, and that our psople have grown up thor
oughly imbued with the idea of that protection
the dearest of rights, it is very remarkable the
unanmty and cheerfulness with which they
comply with properly made military Impress
ments. There are some exceptions, of course.
The Southern character would be immaculate
if there were not But the great body of the
people recognize the necessity, and feel that
they are entirely willing to submit to any rea-
sonable privations for the sake of the cause
Whilst this is admirable, and by all means to
be encouraged in them, there are duties and re-
| sponsibilities also devolving upon officers who
execute those orders, which should not be lost
sight of. 1t is of the utmost importance that
proper men should be selected for this duty
They should be iudicious, discriminating and
polite, but firm, ever remembering that the citi-
zen is himself the highest order of man known
to our Government, who may indeed be called
upon and forced to contribute TO the public de-
fence, but should not be subjected to wanton
| and arbitrary rudeness.
In the execution Of orders too, it is highly de-
srable that discrimination should be used so as
to make the impressment fall lightly upon
individuals may be consistent with the public
service. Those sections should be pref erred
which have been least subject to the ravages of
Inarauding parties and jayhawkers. and where
| the articles needed may be best spared. Where
other horses can be obtained, it is far better also
to refrain from taking the last horse of the poor
man from his plough, thus drpriying him of the
means of supporting his family. If impressing
officers whilst firmly executing their daty, should
do so with courtesy, explaning to the ignorant
that it was not done from any desire to oppress
or to rob, but from indispensable necessity and
for the common good appealing rather to the
| patriotism of the citizen than to his fears of
harm, the effect on public sentiment would be
highly beneficial. The public interests would
be Just as well or better subscrved. and disaf-
fected people would be deprived of much fuel
with which to keep up the fires of discomfort in
the hearts of the people.
This must be accomplished, if at all, by the
subordinate officers acting under orders The
Generals are not able to regulate their action in
detail.
Itremains to add, that these, remarks are not
made with reference to any particular person or
case They are merely thrown out as people
consult together about what is best for cause
which all have at heart.
