The delinquent Tax List, crowds much 6,02. matter out of the paper this week. In the House of Commons the subject of foreign enlistment act was introduced by Cobden on the 22. He referred to the proceedings of Alabama, Florida and Virginia, which were built in English ports for the confederate service. ' He said it was well known that two iron clads are now being built at Liverpool forthe same purpose and believed if they were allow ed to leave England4- the result would be a declaration of war on the part of the America Government. He implored the government to take steps to prevent the departure of these vessels. He was informed that the American Government took note of the value of every vessel 1,14 J captured by privates and debited them to Her Majesty's Government, and he was further informed that the American Minister had made a formal demand up on England to indemify American ship owners for losses. Palmerston defend ed the course which Government had taken and said he could see no distinction t in the principle in selling arms to feder als and sellinsr ships to confederates. He appealed to the principle laid down on the subject by Americans themselves. It was true England had a municipal law bearing on the question, but the Govern ment had carried out that law to its best abililyr and that law which they saw no reason to alter to suit emergencies cf a foreign power they would continue to enforce as far as possible. .

The past two or three weeks has been unusually wet for this season of the year so much so as to injure late wheat. We are kindly permited to extract the following from a private letter: On the Battle Field, ) Near Gettysburg, Pa., July 10. j Dear Father:! arrived Here on Tuesday last, in company with the Mil itary Agent of Indiana at Washington, and four other persons, to look up and administer to the wants of the wounded and dying boys from our State. 1 What I have seen since my arrival here would fill a volume. I have for once looked upon a battle field, fresh after a fight, and seen all of its horrors. I pray God that I may never see another! If the mere 'killing' was ail, or even the sight of dead men piled in heaps, (as the rebels were on many portions of the field,) the sight would not be so appalling. But the sufferings after the fight, of the wounded and dying of both armies, there lies the "horrors" of a bat tle. Since I arrived on the field I have sat by and. watched many a poor fellow pass "beyond the shadow" many more are still to go. Notwithstanding all the suffering - these men are compelled to undergo, they are almost always cheer ful! It is a singular circumstance, but why it is so, has never been explained. The day I arrived I went out with a burial party to bury some seventeen or eighteen of the 19th Indiana Infantry. On a space of ground fifty feet in di- mm. ameter, we buried tmrteen or tnat no ble regiment. I sat and marked head boards for the graves as the men cover ed them up. (They were so decomposed., having lain for seven days and nights, that it was impossible to handle them, and they were covered up just as they lay.) The stench is horrible! This reg iment went into battle with 315 men and brought out SS! ; These 88 veterans are now in hot pursuit of the flying reb els! Our dead are now all buried. I have seen some three or four hun dred rebel dead not yet buried. I count ed, piled up in one ravine, twenty-three rebel officers and one private! Two of these were Colonels and one Major, Captains, Lieutenants, &c. The sight is disgusting and sickening in the ex treme. Thev are all swelled to burst ing, and all as black as negroes, and the maggots are already at their work. Horses by the hundreds strew the field for miles. These the people have com menced to burn. The rebel Gen. Lee, did not take away more than one-third as many men as he brought here. His dead and wounded are strewn from Gettysburg to the Potomac. The rebel wounded now in our hands in this town and the country for five or six miles around, can only be estimated by the acre! This may sound strange, but it is gospel truth, for I have seen it with my own eyes. All our other pitched battles have been mere child's play, as compared with this battle of Gettysburg, both as to slaughter and the grand results attained. ' T. T. S True Bravery. The New Orleans Era, in its history of the investment, siege and capture of Port Hudson, relates the following incideni which occured du rincr the desperate and unsuccessful assault of the 27th of May; One incident of the attack , worthy of special mention. Eight negroes, led by Major Bailey, of the 4th Wisconson regiment, were dataued to carry fas cines in front of the storming party, and in one or two instances they actually reached the ditch and bridged it with their bundles of sticks. They had no weapons at all, carrying nothing but their fascines. It was one of the most gallant actioaof the whole field. The negroes belonged to the 1st Louisana Colored Engineers, "There's no place like home," says the poet. High! unless it's the home of the' girl you're after. This is, of course, an exception.

Boy a little ahead BY TELEGEAPH. Fortress Monroe, Aug. 2. New bern dates to the last have been recei ved. The Raleigh Standard denounces Jeff Davis as a repudiator in whom no confidence can be placed, and whose ef forts to establish a Southern Confederacy will be a failure. The Richmond Ln- t v m . . t quirer calls upon Jen 10 suppress iue Standard and wipe out the supreme court of North Carolinia The Standard re plies that Gov. Vance will stand by the supreme court, and the standard also; and if "Davis attempts to use physical force to suppress the paper he will be met by physical force and a Revolution in the South . will be the result. 1 ne Standard says Nroth Carolinia has fur nished hinty.five thousand soldiers from the causeless war fifty thousand of whom have been killed and wounded and that this State should send a deliga- tion to Washington immediately, to see what terms can be obtained. A recent raid from Norfolkl to Jaskson North Carolinia found the enemy strongly en trenched at that place, which commonds the approach to Weldon. New York, Aug. 2. The steamer Amei rca from Southampton the 22d has arrived, i The Times says the American news are received with surprise, disap pointment and satisfaction surprised at the sudden callapse of Vicksburg disap pointment owing to retreat of Lee, and the prospect of the temmation of the war satisfaction m contemplating En gland's 'wisdom in not preamaturely yielding tothe recent pressure ior Confederate recognation. France. The Constitutional says Russia's reply is being examined by three persons, which positively intend to ag gree on means of setteliqg the question definilly. Paris Journals consider Rus sia's reply insatisfactory.4 Russia ad mits 6 propositions but rejects the arm istice. The suppression of insurrections is nessessary, and amnesty offered. Meanwhile she is willing to accept the the principal of the conferance itself, but does not admitt the right of all per sons who signed the final act of Vienna to participate m the conferance until England, France; Austria, Prussia and Russia are agreed: Poland. A Detachment of Cossacks, while plundering Graivoo were cut to pieces. The Russians have .been def eated in Samogitia, Austria. The Govt, is extremely disssatisfied with the reply of Russia. Washigton Aug. 2. Bufords cavalry with artilery, and a supporting infant ry force crossed the Rappahannock at the Rail Road station yesterday, and thence with cavalry and artilery pro ceeded towards Culpepper, driving Stu art's cavalry before him. " When near Culpepper Buford encountered large forces of rebel infantry and artilery. A fierce, fight ensured, lasting until dark, when he withdrew to Brandy station. The loss on both sides was considerable. This reconnoisance confirms the concen tration of Lee's forces near Culpepper, and indicates his headquarteas at Stras burg.four miles southeast of Culpepper. Cincinnati, Aug. 2. Information from the force pursuing Scott Pegiam to Saturday, says after a chase of over 100 miles, Col. Saunders came up wivh the retreating rebles in vicinity of Lancaster. He captured 10 of them together with a large amount of stock. New York Aug. 3. The following is from a Herad dispatch in regard to the fight on Saturday: Buford's cavalry cross ed the Rappahannoc at a ford half a mile above the rail road station at 9 o'clock Saturday morning. His force, composed of nine cavalry regts. The expedition was for the purpose of ascertaining the exact position of the enemy, nnd the amount of force they , had disposed to di spute any crossing which we might at tempt. Half a mile frqm the ford he en countered the enemy's cavalry, consist ing of Jones' and Hampton's Brigades, Cobb's Georgia Legion and Jeff Davis' Legion. Our cavalry drove the enemy gradually, without any sever fight until a point about a mile and a half this side of Culpepper was reached, when the enemy cavalry fell back on the infantry supports We were obliged to retire after a brisk fight with both infantry and cavalry the rebels outnumberding us two to one. In the fight near Culpepper, which was the most important we had a few killed and 66 wounded, the latter have all arrived at Washington. After retiring a mile and a half our cavalry was at tacked by the combined fcrces of the en emy, but the enemy was held at bay. We took about 100 prisons. Some of their wounded are in our hands. Corps of infantry crossed the Rappahanoc and are in position to render Buford efficient support. According to the accounts of the most intelligant prisoners here the rebel force is so much scattered, watching our movements, that no general engage ment is imminent at present. New York, Aug. 2. A Herald's Washington correspondent says about ten days ago, Detective Ford arrested at Brentsville a party en route to Richmend, upon whom were found some very impor tant documents from this city addressed to Jeff Davis as President of the Sou.hern Confederacy among them were accurate maps of all our fortifications and defenses of this city, discriptions of the works, number of guns in each and strength of the Garrison. Chicago, Aug. 3. A late Hartford Times says thejexemption of drafted men for surgeons certificates in various parts of New England since the commence ment of the federal conscription amount to the enormous proportion of seventy three per cent of the balance. It would seem that as a general thing 20 out of 27 fled to parts unknown, and a strong probability is that in most of these cases the fugitives make good their escape in spite of the activity of the Provost Mar shals, leaving a nett result of almost seven men cut of every hundred drafted whom will be mustered into service. Boston papers say so numerous are the exemptions in Boston that Govt, recently sent one or more inspectors to that city to assertain, if possible the cause of the excessive debility prevailing there.

The returns received, indicate the election 'of Bromlette, Union, over Wickiiffe, Democrat, " for Governor by 20,000. New York, Aug. 4. Times special says it is again asserted from most un doubted authority" that the main body of Lee's army is encomped between Rapi dan station and Grange Court House. It is positively known this was his posi tion on Wednesday last. Lee's real de pot of supplies is Gordonsville. Two divisions of Longstreet's corps occupy Culpeper. It is officially stated that the number of wounded in the three days battle at Gettysburg is about 14,000. A traction over 2000 still remain in hospi tals then. ... A Sperryville dis'patch of the first says the 4th Penn. cavalry was dispatched on a reconnoisance yesterday, and at Little Washington, 12 miles from here they encountered a company of rebel cavalry, one hundred strong, and .drove them through town. It was ascertained a brig ade of rebel cavalry were posted a short distance from that place. A prisoner taken had in his possession a correspon dence indicating the rebel army in a veiy desparare condition bitterly bewailing the error of the recent raid into Md. and Pa. Washington specials says the seces sionists here are making themselves hap py over the report that Jeff Davis is about to raise a great army of negroes upon promise of freedom and lands Large slaveholders in this vicinity, how ever, express the opinion that he will not venture upon this policy in fact that he dare not trust slaves. Vicksburg, July 30. Gen. Steele has been tiansf erred to the command at He lena. In the late movement against Jackson, Sherman's loss in killed and wounded foots up about one thousand. The army is now undergoing a thorough renovation. Some time will elapse be fore any movement of importance occurs. Reports in regard to Johnson are con flicting. It is certain however that he can work us no harm. The division un der Gen. Herron at Natchez destroyed immense supplies of confederate stores cattle from Texas and salt from Louis iana, intended for Lee's army, in great numbers and quantity, have been captur ed. Ft. Monroe, Aug. 4. The Norfolk Virginian contains the following: Saviles Headquarters, Aug. 3. News received here of a cavalry and artillery expedition under Col. Spear. They crossed the Chowan river at Winton, N. C, and proseeded to Jackson, 12 miles from Weldon and near the Ryanoke river where the enemy were discovered in strong force. Our advance made a splen did charge on. the rebels advance and drove them back, capturing seventy pri soners. Our loss 2 killed and 3 wound ed. We captured sixty bales of cotton, and one hundred horses. It has rained incessantly since the expedition started, rendering the roads nearly impassable, The men suffered great hardships. Washington, Aug. The Star of this evening says: The fact that Lee with his headquarters seven miles southeast of Culpeper C. H. and with a considera ble force of infantry at the Court House, permitted Buford to rest on Saturdary night at Brandy Station, five miles from the Court House, after, the fight of that day, proves Lee's determination is not to risk a general engagement in that im mediate vicinity. Had he been willing to risk it, the permiting or the bulk of Meade's army getting into position be tween his army and Fredericksburg, he would surely have assayed an attack on Buford's position on Sunday morning last which he did not do. Trom Stevens burg to Brandy Station the country is capitally suited for operations according to the particular style of tactics to which the rebels always resort when can the circumstance of which Lee would gladly have availed himself of if he dared ven ture to do so. Tha Richmond Enquirer says Lee's army is massed at Culpepper and that Longstreethas advanced in the direction of Fredericksburg and a por tion of his force had occupied the heights at Fredericksburg. The Enquirer Ad mits the fact that in Mississippi, large numbers are deserting the army of Gen. Johnson and says such a state of feeling is greotly to be deprecated and we regret especially to see it prevailing in Missis sippi, the home of the President. New York,' Aug. 5 The Herald has the following: Rappahannock Station, Va.. August 4th. A force of the enemys cavalry with artillery attacked GTen.

Charleston letters to the 31 says the last day of July passes away with everything promising success though perhaps not so soon as some may wish. All things are working well. We know anxieties is felt in Charleston for the safety of the city. Last week there were hanging from the parapet of Surapter, as a protection to the wall, lines of cotton bales. It, told us plainly that our 15 inch shot were equal to its destruction, but the cotton bales are near gone, set on fire' as they were by their own guns. They were obliged to lake them down, they are now piled up in scorched heaps behind the fort. Every thing betokens fearfulness on the part of the rebels here which is very encourag ing to us. - Cape Race, Aug. 5. The Heck from Liverpool 28th Queenstown 29ih has ar rived.

The Charleston Courier of the 2Sth savs, there were about 27 vessels inside the bar yesterday including the ironsides, 6 monitors also 25 in stono inlet. Cairo, Aug. 5. The splendid new steamer Ruth valued at S150.000, burn ed last night at midnight opposite island No. I. She was enroute from St. Luis to Vicksburg and had on board 8 pay masters, their clerks and a number of passengers, two and a half millions of greenbacks about 600 tons of commi sary and sutler stores 200 mules and cattle, boat and cargo total loss. With in five minutes after the fire broke out, the upper works were a mass of flames. She was immediately headed for- the shore on the Missourt side, and struck the bank with full force, the fire having driven the engineers from their posts and the engines continuing to work. - As soon as she struck a number of passen gers jumped ashore but the-sturn soon swang around down stream and as the engins did not cease work, the bow soon turned from the shore and she again started down the river. When she left the shore there were about thirty persons on the bow nearly all of whom must have perished. A equad of soldiers on board as a guard for the funds, is said to have acted heroically and have stood by the boxes containing the money until it was certain all was consumed. The boxes were iron bound too heavy to be removed. r lve soldiers are known to be lost. There were in all 200 on board. The crew were all saved excepting the clerk and two deck hands and the Chamber maid. When the boat swung from the seore, one paymaster, Mai. Shenwault and three clerks were known to be aboard. None of the cattle or mules were saved. There is no satisfactory theory as to how the fire originated, it is believed, how ever to have been started by an incedi- ary in the employment of the Rebel Gov ernment. The cteamer Shanghai arri ved this, morning with - the Ruth.' 1 senders. " Chicago, Aug. 4. A dispatch - from Charleston the 31st says, Cummings Point was severely bombarded yesterday morning, commencing at 10 o'clock. The ironsides and two monitors were en gaged in the bombardment which lasted until 3 p. m. They were responded to by batteries of Greggs, Wagner and Sumter. No firing to-dav. ' Affairs up the Missouri Rlrer. Leavenworth. August 4. The tj steamer Robert Campbell arrived last evening irom the mountains, where she had been with supplies for the Govern ment. . From passengers we learn some mr- (J ticulars in regard to matters in Upper Missouri, lhe bioux Indians are des perate, and there is scarcely a place where a white is safe. The Campbell got arround near the mouth of the Yellow Stone, and the Indians on the bank made signs of friendship. The Captain sent a boat with six men ashore, and just as they were about to land, the Indians fired on them, killing three and wounding one. The crew of the Campbell opened on them, but with what effect is inknown. The steamer Alone was boarded by Indians and robbed of all they wanted; The steamer Belle Peoria was ag round, and it was thought the Indians would burn her, as the river was full of canoes. The Indians are very much dis satisfied and kill everything that comes in their way. It is thought the expedition against the Indians will prove a failure this season, on account of low water. The Empress Eugeine, having done every th ing else outre she could possibly immagine or invent, has now decided on a pilgrimage to Jerusalam and the Holy Places. Accordingly, towards the end of autumm, Her Imperial Majesty , and three of her Ladies of Honor will start, wilh cookie-shell on hat and staff in hand, (but we supposose, without peas, boiled or otherwise, in their shoes,) and will piously proceed to pay there devoirs at the shrine of the Holy Sepulcher. The royal lady, it is said will go well laden with oblations to lay upon the sacred al tar at Jeruslera, an appropriation for that end having been made, to the tune of a couple millions cf francs, from the plethoric treasury of happy France. A New York paper suggests that each County in the leyal States erect a monu ment with the name of every soldier from that County who has fallen or may fall during the war, incribed upon it. It is a good suggestion, which, if caaried out, would give us the honor of surpassing all natians in doinz honor to our heroes. A desperate chap recently made the determined resolution of marrying the girl he was in pursuit of, if he never had another as loos: as he lived. x3Fi3:aarox3 ss Co., FLUSHING, TS.
