Latest from Gen. Garnett's command.Gen. Garnett's death probably unfounded. Louisville, July 16. --Gen. Garnett's forces did not exceed 5,000, and Gen. M'Clellan's Federal forces were about 22,000. The Federal troops were in three columns. Gen. Norris had flanked the Southern troops on the north; Gen. M'Clellan approached on the south, and Gen. Rosencrantz advanced in front. Gen. Garnett's command stood their ground to the last possible moment of safety, and the retreat must have been admirably managed, as the pursuers had no opportunity of using their small arms. This was owing to the fact that the rear was well guarded. In the retreat of the Confederate troops, they were twice outflanked by convergent columns. At the last accounts only twenty of the Southern troops were killed, and they were successfully retreating towards St. George.--The Federalists evidently indulged the hope that Gen. Hill, who was at Oakland, would harass the Confederates in their retreat tow
Proceedings of the Federal Congress--Senator Breckinridge Supports the military bill.

The military bill authorizing the call for five hundred thousand troops, has passed with the Senate's amendments. An additional amendment has been proposed that the President shall select Brigadiers and Major Generals from the regular command. Mr. Breckinridge spoke in justification of the bill. [It is not altogether improbable but that the word justification in this paragraph should have been condemnation.]
