from Washington. The reported wounding of Gen. Meagher is a mistake. His horse fell upon him, but he was only slightly injured, and is still in command of what remains of his brigade. Matters in the West. Dates from Nashville to the 10th show that the dispatches to the press on that day, representing that the rebels had assumed the offensive, were founded upon skirmishing within ten miles of Nashville. Rosecrans, it is asserted, is nearly ready to move upon the enemy. Jeff. Davis and Bishop Polk spoke at Murfreesboro. Friday night, the former declaring that Tennessee should be held at all hazard. Less than forty thousand rebels were between Murfreesboro and Nashville. The rebels have increased their force at Nolensville, Tenn and the Federals are still at Clarksville. Dispatches from Louisville and Evansville represent that a strong rebel cavalry force was marching into Kentucky from Clarksville. It may or may not be so. From Cairo we learn that Gen. Hov

few frail bridges, would undoubtedly bring the victorious hosts of the enemy at once to the attack, and might result in the worst calamity of the war. How the army is to be extricated from these predicaments, I am unable to devise. I trust that those entrusted with its fortunes have the ability to do it.

and with the result known, none could possibly be more magnificent or more nearly impregnable. With fifty thousand men they should easily hold it with three times that number of assailants. And, indeed, they appear never to have employed more than about than about that number. Every time we poured forward fresh men they had ready reinforcements to match. From prisoners taken I learn that on the right, commanded by Jackson, half of the force only (and chiefly the division of A P Hill and Farly's brigade) was engaged. I take it that they had along the line of the Rappahannock about one hundred thousand men, and that 50,000, more or less, were actually engaged in the contest. The Confederate loaders have acted with their usual wiliness in this whole matter. They did well to let us easily into Fredericksburg, firing but a half dozen guns., when they could have brought a hundred to bear upon us. The city itself was the veriest trap that ever was laid — and we have walked into it

The principal camp is said to be at Austin, 25 miles north of Little Rock. A voyage with rebels — Maury, Ferguson, and others on board the Arabia--What they said and How they looked. A correspondent of the Boston Commercial Bulletin who crossed the Atlantic in the Arabia with the rebel Maury and a dozen of his fellow-traitors, gives the following interewith the English, while they scarcely deign to look at four "Yankees," who are among the cabin passengers and who have been on the qui vive and watching their movements all the while. Besides Maury, whom they style "Commodore," there is a Major Ferguson, who is represented as being a disbursing agent or treasurer of the so-called Confederacy, and who is to pay the bills contracted for the ships, &c, This man is accompanied by a young fellow who is to act as his secretary.

y mind however, little probability that this will be done, or can be done. It is likely that the council of Generals-- composed of Burnside, Summer, Hooker, and Franklin — now meeting at this house, will shake this determination, as I know they are all opposed to the measure. Indeed, one has only to go over to Fredericksburg, whre killed. After the General had left the locality the friendly intercourse was renewed, and butternuts and blue uniforms freely mingled. About this time Gen. Franklin dispatched a flag of truce, which the enemy immediately recognized, and the exchange of the dead bodies was resumed and continued until completed. On Mondthe latter, however, fell into the bands of the enemy. The total loss in killed and wounded, it is estimated, will be from 10,000 to 12,000. In the attack of Gen Franklin on the left we had 443 killed, 3,343 wounded, and 1,900 missing. The only redeeming feature in the sad and fruitless loss of life and limb is the bravery and c
