The Confederate loss at seven Pines.-letter from General J. E. Johnston. [We take pleasure in publishing — the following letter from General Johnston, which explains itself, as we are always ready to make explanations or corrections of any thing that we may put into our Papers.] Richmond, June 22d, 1877. Rev. J. Wm. Jones, D. D., Secretary Southern Historical Society: Dear Sir: Major-General Longstreet's report of the battle of Seven Pines, as published in your Society's Papers-May andthe same report, and in such juxtaposition, that his loss was about 3,000, and that it was 4,851. Most respectfully, your obedient servant, J. E. Johnston. [It is due to ourselves to say, in reference to the above, that we printed General Longstreet's report from a verbatim copy of the one recorded in the letter book kept at his own headquarters, and that we, of course, had no reason to suspect that it was in any particular different from the original report sent to General Johnston.]

duly exchanged, and are hereby so declared. Ro. Ould, Aqent of Exchangce. Richmond, September 12, 1863. By order: S. Cooper, Adjutant and Inspector-General. And if Mr. Blaine will not receive rebel authority, then the following is submitted: On page 74 of General Boynton's book (Sherman's Historical raid) the following telegram from Gen. Halleck, at Washington, to Burnside, in East Tennessee, is given: September 18,--. A part at least of Longstreet's corps is going to Atlanta. It is believed that Bragg, Johnston, and Hardee, with the exchanged prisoners from Vicksburg and Port Hudson, are concentrating against Rosecrans. You must give him all the aid you can. [Italics ours.] Either Mr. Blaine is mistaken, therefore, in giving General Grant as his authority for saying that these high-toned gentlemen and gallant soldiers violated their paroles, or else General Grant's memory is at variance with the facts. J. William Jones, Secretary Southern Historical Society.
