[Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.] . TiSeilwa, 111., July 6, Dr. Daniel Brohmrd, of Chicago, addressed a large meLting* of the citizens of Bureau county, at this place on the 4th. Ms oration was full of principles, facts, and arguments, luminous with trnth and weighty with practi cal wisdom. Bo recognized onr present national troubles as the direct and inevitable consequences of cur departure from, the principles oi the Dc-clanilon of Independence, and urged with the terror of a patriot a return to the Divine piicciples of the rights of man and human brotherhood, as the only sure road that leads to a happy and enduring .peace. . 'Be gave unbounded satisfaction to the true XTnlon men. Tbe Copperheads fain would have little homeopathic pile, but tbe Doctor, being an Allopath, administered great kill-or cure doses to that sick people, with an ad mirable coolness peculiar to his pro fession. 4 COMMENCEMENT AX KNOX COLLEGE. [Special Correspondence.} Gaizsbubo, Knox Co , 111., June 27,18C3. The eighteenth commencement of Knox College, Galesburg, IQ, took place June 25th. On the previous Sabbath the bacalanreate dis course was preached by Prot Bailey. Tho prize rhetorical exercises took place on the evening of the 23d. The speaking was un usually good. The competitors were C. G. ■Williams, Win. Craig, H.' C. Willard, J. C. LaUmcr/O. H. Pitcher,audit. A. Ortrander. Fir. Willard received the first prize, and Mr. Craig the second. On the 24th occurred the fourteenth commencement of tho female col legiate department. Ten young ladles gradu ated, viz.: Ganny Ayres, Sarah O. Bonce Isa bella Cothren, Jcrnsha B. Farnham, Ma. jJ, Fnruham, Harriet M. Ferris, Ella G. Ferris, Xouita Jndson, Isabella Smith and Francis M. Tryon. The essays were well written, and distinctly read, and produced a very happy impression. The address was delivered by Bev. C. N. Mattoon, D. D., ol Rockford. Diplomas awarded by Pro£ Bailey. At the' close of the exercises, and before the audi ence left the room, a Bible and an album was . presented to Prof 8., by the graduates In both departments. : ■ • ' • In the evening of the same day the Alumni were addressed by Prof George Churchill. He stated that this was his first speech in public, and then proceeded to give an in structive and amusing account of his travels in Europe. : The “great day of the feast,” and com mencement proper, was on Thursday. The following are the names of the graduates and their themes: . Edward H. Curtis, inde pendence of character; Sam Hunt, progress of liberty in Europe; W. D. Latimer, the statesman; G.M. Roberts, popular govern ments; C. H- Thompson, day approaches surely though slowly. These speeches were all well delivered, < and reflect honor on the speakers and the college. Hr. Curtis is a son of the lately deceased President of the col lege; and Mr. Bunt is a nephew of' Parson Brownlow. The Master's oration, by J. A. McKenzie, was brief, able, and patriotic. Capt. McKenzie has been compelled to resign bis post in the army on account of ill health. The degree of A. It. was conferred on Messrs. McKenzie, Bobbins and Boyce. The Presl , dent elect, Rev. W. 8. Curtis, D. D., of Ham ilton college, N. T., then delivered bis inau gural. Theme, the American College. His address, though of great length, and on this account faulty, was very able, original, and practical, and gave great satisfaction to the friends of the college. FROM NEW ORLEANS. The Late Confederate Sue- THEY RECOVER THE ATOHA FALATA DISTEIOT. [Correspocdcnce N. T. World.] New Obleanp, Jane 36,1883. It required no gift of prophecy to predict, as 1 did in my lost, the probable “gobble” of the Federal forces at Brashear City. Their capture was inevitable, unless gunboats and transports could be tern around by the Golf to Berwick's Bay in time to take away these men. The Confederates wore between La fourche (Thibodeaux) and Brasbear, and held Ihe line of the Opelousas Railroad. No rein foi cements or trains could be sent from, here. There was, indeed, no escape what ever. To recapitulate a. little: Saturday and Sunday there were skirmishers at Lafourche Crossing, and the official account carried yon news of the Federal victory. It was pom* pously announced in the official, the would-be official, acd was copied by the other city papers. There was no objection whatever to the publication of this new*,not withstundingthe ominous silence about Port Hudson, ever since the assault of May 27; and only yesterday the Provost Marshal sent word to the city papers that they would make no allusions for the present to military movements in this Department, which meaus, to *aj nothing about the capture of Brashear city, which the newsboys cried about the town yesterday, and the abandonment of the lafouiche country by the Federal forces. The “victory’* ou Sunday at Laflmrebe crossing was followed by the speedy retreat of the Federal forces to Bate station. Before leaving Lafourche they burned the railroad bridge at the crossing, and several of the re* turned soldiers say that they spiked their bat* Uiy and threw the guns imo the bayou. At Bute station they proceeded to intrench them* oeives, and their subsequent operations are significantly summed up in the return of the 16th Maine regiment to thia city yesterday with word that “the rest was coming,’’ and the return this morning of the 2Gth Massa chusetts, sent over as a reinforcement lost Saturday evening. The Confederates mean* w bile tore up a mile or more of the track west of the crossing, and between the two forces, Fedcrals and Confederates, the Ope lousas road may be considered for a “me dium of communication” as dead as the Rochester Fox family. Until Gen. Banks raises the siege, or fakes Port Hudson, or until he is reinforced from Port Boyal or elsewhere, the Lafourche conn tiy is in the hands of the Confederates, *nd pending the reliefs there will be no immedi ate action for the revision of the State Con stitution and the revival of the civil govern ment. CONFEDERATE CAPTURE OF BBASIXEAR CITY. Last Monday the United States transport 6L Wary, Capt. Talbott, left W* port aud vent round via the Gulfj to communicate with Berwick’s Bay. Tuesday evening while running up the bay, she met the United States gunboat Hollyhock (the old Reliance) twenty-five miles from Brashear city. The St. Wary took on board the gunboat’s passen gers—the (late) provost marshal of Brashear at d about forty Federal soldiers who bad es caped on this boat. From them were gath ered the following particulars with regard to the capture by the Confederates of Brashear city: News of Saturday’s and Sunday’s operations at Lafourche crossing reached the force at Brashear city. It is arid (but lam not cer tain of this) that the field guns of the 2Ut In diana (infantry regiment, how the First Indi ana) batteiy were sent to reinforce the Fede rals at the crossing. If this is thp case, the Confederates will be obligedtojflsh them out oi the bayou, instead ol removing them, as they might nave done, from Brasher city. The force at Brashear city expected “U attack; but they looked for the attack from .Lafourche, and were fairly surprise? - n tenUlv.jww*n*i* in a military sense—when at daylight Tuesday morning two batteries, planted the Digit pre vious, opened upon them from Berwick city, opposite, and not an hoar after came crashing through the woods a mixed mass of horse and footmen. There were not more than sir hundred of them, and they were a portion of Wonton’s force from the west bank ot the Teche. . They crossed on rafts and flat boats, lending on the south hank of Lake Falondre, charged into town, and came in the rear of the Federal*, who were looking for an advance upon Bayou Ba-uf It -was short work. There was no fighting. The provost marshal and a few men near the bay succeeded in getting ou board theHollyhok. The rest were “gob bled.” As a raid, surprise, or “ gobble,” it was a most important achievement for the Confed erates, and a disaster to the Federals. There are no means of knowing precisely the num ber of men who were taken prisoners. They were volunteers belonging to the 23d Con necticut, the 176 th New York, and the Ist In diana batteiy, with several sick and convales cent men. Two thousand negroes—men, women and children—were in the city, not one of whom escaped. There is reason to believe that -some ot the soldiers joined the Federal forces at Lafourche Sunday evening. Those who remained ore prisoners. The Ist Indiana batteiy men were on duty at Fort Bu chanan, an earthwork on Lake Falondre, com manding the inlet of the Atcbofalaya river. Capt. Noblett’s horse came into the city from the fort riderless, and the fate of the rider is only conjectured at. There were four heavy gans In the fort, one 30 pound Parrott in the city, three, or four runs on the earthworks at Bayou Bee of, and ibj'he magazine there were 30,000 rounds of ammunition for these guns. In addition to the (temporary, at least) occupation of this important position, and the capture of these guns and ammunition, there were other very desirable spoils in the place.. When Gen. Banks made his advance to Alexandria, wish ing to encumber the army as little as possible ou the march, he left everything that was su perfluous at Brashear city. His tents, his army’s knapsacks; the officers’ baggage, con siderable supplies of stores and provisions, have all fallen into the hands of the Confeder ates. Beyond the few clothes worn by those who escaped on the Hollyhock (and they did not stop to make veiy elaborate toilettes) ever) thing was captured. TUB CONFEDERATES AT ItANCHAC. Lately a email train has been ran dally on the Jackeon Bailroad to" Kenner, fourteen miles above the city, and sometimes on to Manchac, on tbe South Pass of Lake Manre pas, Manchac Pass bas been the scone of bridge burning more than once within a few months past. Pesterday a train with the only locomotive on the road was sent np to Manchac to bring the hand cars, tools, and men who have just completed the repairs of the bridge. The train did not return, and we have news this morning that it was taken by Ihe now hold the Foss. As this gives them the control of the road, and affords a direct route to the city, the Conted- C! ates will not he likely to destroy the bridge, unless compelled to do so to ent off an ad* vanning Federal force from New Orleans. THE SITUATION TO-DAT. . Gen. Banks, bo far as we know, “holds Ms owfc ” in the rear of Port Hudson. Admiral Farragut is near Springfield Landing with the Tennessee (flag ship), Genessee v Richmond, Essex (Iron-clad). Sachem, and six mortar schooners. .The Hartford, Estrella, and Alba- TJmoh. tross of this fleet ore supposed to be above. Gen. Emory commands the defenses of New Orleans. The Confederates occupy the entire State west of Lafourche Crossing and north of the Opelousas railroad. The situation is more interesting and critical than it lias been at any time since April 25,1862, when Farra gnt with his fleet appeared befdre Now Or leans and demanded the unconditional sur render of the city. Jn the city the provost guard has been doubled, and other p re cautions (which it would be improper to mention at present,) are taken to secure the safety of New Orleans. The fe.w soldiers here are paraded (I cannot but think with a very feeble show of ostenta tion, considering their number,) through the streets, and there is more drum, fife, and bu gle business than has been manifested since the day Neal How paraded his brigade. The gunboats Pensacola/ Monongahela, Ports mouth, Circassian, Kinneo, and the armed etorcsliip Fearnought, lie opposite the city in the river; the forts built some years since be low the city are supposed to be there; Jim Hnke has gone to Mobile (where he arrived safely,) with the tugboat Boston, and the son shines as serenely over river, bay, ondbayon as it did in the happy but past days of peace. Recognized, at Last. It appears Arom an official document pub lished in the Loudon Index, never haying been published in this country, that one Ernst Ra ven waa appointed Consul for the State of ■ Texas by bis serene Highness, the Duke of Saxe-Cobuig and Goths, and did on the 80th of3uly, 1801, apply to the government of tho Confederate States for an exequatur' which was issued to him on the 21st of August fol lowing.This serene duke is the brother of the late Prince Albert, cousin of Queen Vic toria, sovereign, of’WO square miles of terri-. Tory, with a population a tittle larger than that of Chicago, and an Immense army of 1,801 men. ’ His serene Highness must have contemplated a severe joke upon the Confed . eraty. The transmission - of. the Raven to Texas, however, is so feeble arecognitionthat the rebels don't like to crow over It. cesses. THE EESTJLT OF THE LATE BATTLES. Effects of the Present Situation. Hundreds of Cumberland Valley formers, with teams, cattle, &c., ore returning home. About fifty rebel prisoners arrived from' Car lisle to-day. Gen. Sigcl is in towh. The following Is condensed from the even ing Telegraph : Gen. Pierce, in command of Mllroy’s troops, on Saturday evening, captured a rebel wagon train of about 100 wagons, between Cham bcrsbnrgand Greencastle. The contents were chiefly plunder, consisting of clothes, shoes, hats, and even women and children’s clothing. A great many rebel wagons foil into onrhands as they near the Potomac, and farmers along the line of the retreating rebels greatly har assed them. The rebels desert their sick and wounded. It is thought they do so to em barass our army. It is said that the Headquarters of the De partment of tbe Susquehanna ore to bo re moved to Carlisle, It is folly believed here that Lee Is moving & bold front to cover his retreat, and that be Is working as if he intended to entrench him self in position beyond Gettysburg, the more effectually to cover his design of extricating his army from its present position without a fight. It is said his troops are disheartened and dismayed. Lee’s scattered troops are retreating up through the valley. The impression prevails, in official circles, that all the Potomac fords are in our possession. A military force un der Smith Is pushing on rapidly, and has re inforced the wearied troops of Meade. It is not likely that the rebels will a stand to fight another pitched battle, as not one third of Jheir men ore together, and these are completely demoralized. Prisoners and de serters are arriving in large numbers. It has been raining all day. The Potomac if still rising, and it is confidently believed by knowing ones that Lee, in order to avoid further carnage, will surrender. As oar forces are now stationed, if he attempts to cross ho will be cut to pieces. Our whole army has never been in better spirits. JUlttmobe, July 6.—The following has been posted at headquarters: Advices from the army, up to 3 p. m. on Sunday, state that General Meadows headquar ters were at Creigarstown last night, and were to be at Frederick to-day. New York. July o. —The CommerctaTe For tress Monroe letter, of the 4th, says that Gen. Getty is & long way from White House, and is constantly sending in. prisoners, animals aid stories of the plans of Dlx, This correspondent says that while a small force made a feint of an advance npoa Blch mond, General Dix sent a heavy column in on entirely different direction, which will strike a stunning blow to the operations of Lee's army, by the destruction of the bridges of the Virginia Central BaHroad. [Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.] Washington, July 6,1863. Our forces are posted so as to render the capture of a large part of Lee's force prob able. Sixty-seven hundred prisoners have already arrived at Baltimore. The Potomac Is six feet above tho ford& [Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.] Washington, July 6,1863. Tho news from the recent battle continues to be of the most cheering character. Pris oners and deserters are continually coming into our lines. The enemy have lost of {he latter over 0,000, and the number is increas ing. No correct reports- of the killed and wounded have yet been mode ont, and the figures given arc only estimates. Gen. Meade is folly alive to the emergency of the boar. The details from the army indicate the cap ture of more guns and. wagons belonging to. the rebels. Gen. Hooker, who is here, thinks Lee can not escape, as the river has already risen suf ficiently to prevent crossing without the old of boats. ' Gen. Stoneznan had an interview with tho Secretary of War to-day, and is to receive orders to join the army of the Potomac. General Conch telegraphs that the Potomac Biver is rapidly rising. No more sick or wounded arc to bo sent Bast from tho Washington hospitals, hat the woanded from the battle field will be sent to tl e Philadelphia and other Eastern hospitals. The dispatches of Jeff Davis are even more decisive in their disapproval of Lee's plan tliftß we stated last night. Davis says that Lee having undertaken the movement on his own responsibility, must extricate himself as best he can. The rain of yesterday and to-day trill In crease the recent rise in the Potomac, to a freshet, which will render it Impossible for Lee to cross, except by a bridge. Informa tion received to-day states that all the bridges below Hancock have been destroyed. The Mountain passes leading to Hancock arc all in our possession. The enemy can only get through by desperate fighting. , TheiVrss has received a special that the rebel Gen. Jenkins has.escaped, and that the cnexnyunder Fitzhngh Lee ore recommit cring fora ford. A dispatch from Gem Haupt, received yes terday, at Gettysburg, states that the enemy is rapidly retreating. All our sick and wound ed w ere being moved there yesterday.! , The 12th arms corps is 011 tk* march and moving in haste through Littlctown toward Williamsport to cut off the enemy. .The left wing had also received marching orders. A part of the artillery and cavalry under Pleasanton are In motion towards Frederick. Out of twenty-six officers in the 69th Penn sylvania regiment only four escaped.

Baltimore, July s.—Si consequence of In* formation that Gen. Stuart was about to make a raid upon our rear, this afternoon, General Kilpatrick was sent out on our right. Some cannonading was heard, bat up to 9 o’clock he bad not returned to camp. Harrisdubo, July C, 1 a. m.—Nothing Is known as to the exact situation. Lee is prob ably trying to retreat hy both routes. It is supposed he does not know ofthe destruc tion of the pontoon bridge. The position of the rebel army, last night, was with his left near Hunterfctown, and his rightacrossthe Emmettsburg road, thus forming; a semi circle around Gettysburg. Gemflleade ope* rates from the centre, and Gen. Lee on. the arc .of a circle. Harrisburg, July 6.—The Pennsylvania Railroad has resumed business. All passen gers and freight trains are running to ddy as usual. The road was not injured in anyway by the rebels. New Tons, July O.—A Baltimore special to the Herald says that over 8,000 prisoners have arrived, and General Schenck has orders to prepare to receive 20,0Q0 more. The road along the route of the rebel re treat is strewn with abandoned wagons, can non, small arms and camp equipage. General Conch appears to have formed a junction with Meade, and the militia are slaughtering and captaring the grajbacks by regiments and brigades. • Not one tenth of Lee’s army can get back to Dixie by the route they cajne. It is not a defeat for Lee, but a total and perfect rout. Baltimore, July 6.— Qeu. Hallcck is in possession of several recent dispatches from Gen. Meade, and from their tone declares that Lee has suffered a disastrous defeat. * New York, July 6.— The New York Time* soysi. “ The contents of Jeff Davis’ dis- Eutches captured are a peremptory order to ee to withdrawfroml’enusylvaula, assigning us the reason that the position is too hazard ous, and the condition of Richmond too de fenseless to warrant his remaining longer, lie also refuses Lee’s request to allow Beau rtgard torelnforce him, and orders Lee south ol the Potomac forthwith.” The N. Y. Timm' Gettysburg dispatch con firms the report that we almost annlbilated the rebels, who left nearly 5U,000 killed and wounded on tbe ground. Hancock’s Corps, which defeated the centre, was thanked by Gen. Meade in the name of the army and the country. At 7on Friday evening, the 3d and 6th Army Corps attacked the enemy’s right, gaining a good deal of ground. Our cavalry to-day (Sunday) is playing on the rebel flank and rear. A Harrisburg dispatch to the Herald, of the stb, says: Governor Curtinrecclveda dispatch from Hanover, stating that 20,000 rebels, and over 100 cannon were taken. Gen. Pleasanton occupied the mountain pass near Chamber&bnrg, cutting ofl the re treat, We bold all the mountain passes, and have formed a Junction with the militia, al most surrounding the enemy. It Is stated that there is a rebel column on the Virginia side of the Potomac, unable to reinforce Lee. on account of the high water. New Yore, July 6.— Paroled prisoners say the rebels captured 8,600 of our troops. Our forces have the advance of the rebels in three main positions. It is stated that Lee has all his available force with him. Near Gettysburg, July s.— The rebels have retreated towards the Potomac. The rebel pontoon bridge at Dam No s,’has been des troyed by our cavalry. Our cavalry has gone to Williamsport to destroy the bridges there. Other preparations are progressing to inter cept Lee’s passage of the Potomac, and our am yis in motion. It Is feared Lee’s advance reached Williamsport in time to cross unop posed. Lee yesterday paroled about 3,01>0 Fcdtrals. Baltimore, Julj *>.—About 6,000 prisoners have been received, wdmore to come. Philadelphia, July C.—A dispatch from Gov. Curtin states that Conch’s army Is ad vancing in force, and is likely to-render Im port ant service. The Governor is satisfied that the rebel array is in our power, If we act vigorously imd promptly. The crossing of the Potomac prepared by the enemy is des troyed, and he is short ol ammunition. WASHINGTON, July 6.—The latest report from the army of the Potomac is that pursuit is Toeing made of tho retreating rebels, who are smarting under the terrible punishment they have received. It is believed Lee will bejintcrccpted and bis army completely de molished. Our army has done and Is doing the very best. Our Josses are heavy, but the army is still in good condition.

The following speaks for itselt It was ad dressed to the rebel troops: - , Headquarters Aranr op Northwestern ) VLUODiIA, COARBZRSBURO, Pa.. V June 27,1863. ) General Order No. 73.—The commanding General has observed with marked satisfaction the conduct of the troops oa the march, and confi dently anticipates results commensurate with the high spirit they have manifested. No troops could have displayed greater fortitude or better per formed the’ordnous marches of the past ten days. Their conduct in other respects, hos, with few ex ceptions, been in keeping with their characteras soldiers, and entitles them to approbation and p*s*sc. There have, however, been instances of forget fulness on the-part of some, that they hare in keeping the yet unsullied reputation of tho army and that tho duties exacted of ns by civilization and Christianity arc not less obligatory in the country of the enemy than in our own. Tbo commanding, General considers that no greater disgrace could befall the army, and through it our whole people, than the perpetration of the barbarous outrages npon the innocent and defense less, and the wanton destruction of private prop er ty, that have marked the course of the enemy m our own country. Such' proceedings not only disgrace tho perpetrators and all connected with them, hut are subversive of the discipline and ef ficiency of the army, and destructive of tho ends of our present movement. It must be re me cube red that we make war only upon armed men, and that ■ we cannot take vengeance for the wrongs onr peo ple have suffered, without lowering ourselves In the eyes of all whose abhorrence hqg been excited by the atrocities of our enemy, and offending Him to whom vengeance bclongeth, without whoso favor and support our efforts must all prove In vain. . The Commanding General therefore earnestly exhorts the troops to abstain with most scrupulous care from unnecessary or wanton injury to private property; and be enjoins upon all officers to arrest ona bring to summary punishment all who shall In any way offend against the orders on this sub ject.

Ru mors were prevalent all the evening of the approach of Morgan's force. * They were reported at Bardstown this morning, and at Shapherdsville this afternoon. His force is estimated at from 2,000 to 4,000. This evening, at. live o’clock, the Nashville train, due here at six o’clock, was thrown off the traclThy guerillas. Our guard of fifty re pulsed the assailants. It is Impossible, under the present excite ment, to get further news till morning.- [Speclal Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.] Cincinnati, July 6,18C3. There is hut little additional os yet of Mor gan’s movements in . Kentucky. Ho came into the Slate via Columbia, with from three to four hundred mounted iuCmtry and cavalry. His advance attacked the forcewehadat Satersville, on Green river. He was repulsed with a loss of thirty killed, among whom was a rebel cavalry officer, Col. Chenault, who has figured conspicuously in all of Morgan’s raids. Morgan made a circuit and came upon Le banon, where wo had a garrison of fifty men of tLc2st Kentucky, under Colonel Hau- Afight’ensued. Gen.Hanfion telegraphed Gen. -Burnside of the approach of Morgan, and ask ed for reinforcements. Gen. Burnside imme diately ordered forward two regi ments who werenot far off Hanson fought behind his works nearly seven hours losing but 5 men, and surrender ed while his reinforcements were not more than half a mile off. Morgan commenced to parole the men, and had only paroled Coh Hanson when - the re inforcements came np, and Morgan evacua ted Lebanon, taking with him the entire force except Col. Hanson. Gen. Burnside ordered Hanson to report to Gen. Boyle, atLoniaviile, under arrest. Gen. Burnside ordered the 7th Indiana and a bat tery of the 25th Indiana artillery, and two cavalry companies, who were at Indianapolis, by special train to Louisville, and on down to Elizabethtown. Several other regiments are in motion,from Ohio, Indiana and Michigan. I learn from the General, this evening, that Morgan came on further north, .and Is tbt* evt niug near Shelbyville. His force Is now between the Ohio and and Kentucky Rivers, and we have, it Is thought, sufficient forces south of here to prevent his escape. Several officers who proved inefficient yes terday have been ordered under arrest, and It is hoped this action will secure greater vigilance. FROM THE SOUTH. News via. Fortress ZCfonroc.

Hatfield and lady, of Lancaster, Pa., who were captured at the fall of Winchester, reached here to-night from Richmond, having left that city yester day morning. They were released with 000 privates at Winchester, who have been sent to Camp Pa role, Annapolis, together with two commis sioned officers, who have been in the Rich mond Penitentiary nine months as hostages for some rebels recently held by us. They were the only officers released, even our sur geons and chaplains being detained. Tbe ladies wbo were wives of officers, some twelve In number, were regarded as prisoners of war and have been subjected to the most cruel treatment. At Winchester they were confined by the rebels in a small fort promis cuously with other prisoners, and on being released were famished with wretched accom modations for transit to Richmond, several ladles being obliged to walk twenty and thirty miles. At every place they were booted at, Insulted, and universally looked npon os Yankee curiosities. On arriving at Richmond they were closely imprisoned and treated as most of our.prisoners have been before them. There was a decided scare on Friday lost, when Col. Spear, of Dix’s forces, made'his raid so near Richmond. The entire city was alarmed, so much so that nearly a thousand rebel soldiers, confined In same prison with three civilians, for military offences, were called npon and told that they would be fur nished with arms, and immediately ordered out in front of Richmond. The commanding officer reported that the Yankees were then within a few miles. On Colonel Spear’s re treat the excitement subsided, hut therrf Is still constant fear of on attack, which was ex pected almost daily. There are believed to he abont 6,000 troops In Richmond, mostly conscripts and homo guards. The prisoners saw boys not more than twelve years of age drilling in the streets. It Is certain that none or Bragg’s forces have reached Richmond, nor that that city has been reinforced otherwise. It is the opinion that it could now be easily token. FROM NEW ORLEANS.
