The rebels seem to take off our officers almost before they have time to draw their men up in line of battle. Nearly all the rebel officers cannot be distinguished from the privates a short distance off. Our own can be seen a mile. The loss, however, in officers in the rebel ranks must have been very great. The bodies of Gen. Anderson and Gen. Whiting were this morning found lying among our own dead. Between forty and fifty rebel captains and lieutenants have also been found and brought to our hospitals. I have conversed with many of them, and they all admit a very heavy loss. The rebels have not all crossed the Potomac — sharp fighting going on all day Sunday at the Fords. The Washington Star, of the evening of the 22d, has the following: We apprehend that the statement in this morning's papers, that

which we place confidence, that nearly all day yesterday there was severe fighting at some of the different fords by which Lee crossed his army, in which McClellan attacked the enemy wherever he found them on this side, and was met by rebel troops sno considerable force of rebels this side of the Bull Run mountain, if, indeed, this side of the Blue Ridge; and also that Lee has been for some days sending the troops he did not take into Maryland back in the direction of Gordonsville. We prel army cannot contend successfully with McClellan's present force in that quarter; and as he is hourly gaining accessions, Lee will not fight him on his present line if he can avoid so doing, until he can draw him within a hostile country so far fror his transportation and his line of communication with his base. As we have no idea that Gen. McClellan will thus afford Lee the opportunity to select his own time, place, and circumstance for the next grand battle, we believe the campaign on the

Saturday the Union troops were constantly arriving by the roads on either side of the Maryland Heights. The Heights themselves were occupied, and artillery placed in position there in the course of the afternoon, so as to command the Ferry, and the national banner again waves upon the fortifications. The town of Harper's Ferry was not destroyed or molested by the rebels, or the citizens disturbed. From the headquarters of M'Clellan — the Federal losses at Sharpsburg, &c.
