General Wadswoeth?His Remains in this City.?T>r. Ross, who was sent to the army by Drs Brown and Alexander, embalmers, on Monday a week ago, for the purpose of recov ering the body of the gallant General Wads worth, returned this morning, having been successful in his mission The body was found buried at a point on the Wilderness battle Seld between the Fredericksburg plank roal and turnpike. It had been enclosed in a good coffin, painted black, and was interred, it is said, by a man named Pat Griffin, who lives in the vicini'y of the Wilderness battle field, and who had been befriended by Gen. Wadswortu in Washington, and who bad obtained Gen. Lee's permission to care for the body The remains were recovered by a party sent out under a flag of-true, and were brought to .Fredericksburg yesterday at eleven o'clock, and placed on board the steamer Mary F. Raplty, and brought to this city this morning at two o'clock. The wound which caused death was found to have been made by a minnie ball, which entered on the left side and near the top of the skull, and is supposed to bave thence taken a downward course He laid two days af er being wounded, but was delirious up to the moment of his death. All his clothing except his boots was found upon his person, but the buttons had been cut from bis coat, his straps were torn from his shoul ders, and his watch was gone, and pockets Wen- tamed inside out. It is but just to say that Gen Lee give free consent to have the body exhumed and brought home. butt-ome of his officers did all in thjir power to thwart the party seeking the body, by objecting to slight imormalitiee in the ar rant* men's for the flag-of-truce. The body is at tfce establishment of Drs. Brown tc Alexander, but it is so far decom posed that it cannot be embalmed. It will be, however, placed in a metallic coffin and taken to New York Gen.

Barker,of tbeHth New Hampshire volunteers, having tendered hie reelgriation on the ground o! ui-plea^aut feelings between the colonel of the rejrimert and himself, has been honorably dl-cbarped the fcervl"*, notwithstanding a e'Tong effort was made to have it dishonorable; ar.d It wa* so read In presence of the regiment on dress parade; thus attempting to place a stigma upor the character of an honest man. whose favU was, a steady determination that the ratior.e of enlisted men should not be used to profit any officer, whatever his rank might be. The President made the following indorse ment on it, when referred to him for action; "My opinion is that the resignation of officers is not, cor is likely to become a very extensive evil, either in the army or elsewhere; and that when an officer offers to resign rather than to remain and keep ttp a difficulty in his regiment, it is rather meritorious, and tends to the good ?f the service. Let (Japt. Frank T. Barker's resignation be accepted, and he be honorably discharged." ('apt. Barker was a gallant and efficient offi cer, and has endeared himself to bis company and regiment by his gentlemanly appearance and soldierlike bearing. The service has lost an excellent officer and the regiment one of their mot-t cherished friends. -?? Tut!
