The rebel authorities ostentatiously announce that sixty eight commissioned officers belonging to his army are now there — nosed on the 6th for the publication of an article entitled "Bull Run the Second." The city of Boston has yet to raise 4,500 volunteers to evade a draft. Gen. Pope was serenaded and made a speech in Chicago on Friday night. Gen. Shields, it is said, will soon be placed in active command. The Cincinnati Commercial states, at Gen.

At Mechanicville, at Gaines's Mill, at Cold Harbor, at Savage Station, at Malvern Hill, at Berkley, the same cry rose above the roar of artillery, the shrieks of the wounded, the groans of the dying, and the indescribable noise and confusion of a whole Yankee army routed and flying for life. It ceased not with the chase, defeat, and almost entire destruction of Pope's army; but it was not so confident or so loud, until the "small Napoleon" again got in the saddle, when Bennett, too, a second time, mounted his high horse.

His name is William S. Atwood, and his rank that of Major in the 1st regiment of Michigan volunteers. His detention was caused by an order of Gen. Winder to that effect, a charge of grand larceny having been entered against Atwood. It appears that while Atwood's regiment was prowling in the vicinity of Mount Vernon he and a number of his comrades proceeded to depredate on the premises, by virtue of their belonging to the family of Col. Jno. A. Washington, a rebel, and in pursuance of Pope's proclamation. Atwood selected as his share of the plunder the celebrated picture of George Washington, painted by Stuart, and which for eighty-odd years had been hanging in the venerable mansion undisturbed. He caused it to be shipped to his Northern home as

Gone. --According to announcement, the commissioned officers of Pope's army were sent away at 7 o'clock yesterday morning, in the direction of Varina, the landing on James river below this city. The whole number, including citizens of Washington held as prisoners of war and others, amounted to one hundred and fifty. Nearly the whole party went off in conveyances provided for the purpose, and judging from their countenances were not at all displeased at being allowed the opportunity of rear and others, amounted to one hundred and fifty.
