An idea of the falsity of McClellan's dispatches to his Government may be gathered from the fact that he telegraphed to Washington, after the fight at Hanover Court House, that the Federais took950 prisoners, ‘"and more coming in"’ Mcilletian is getting to be 28 had as his brother officers, Gen. Mitchell has arrived at Nashville, and reports that Jere Clemens and Judge McLean are among the prominent Unionists at Huntsville. Mitchell may be lying, nevertheless. The New York Herald, of the 30th nit, reports that the Confederate army had fallen been from Corinth, and guns — it knows not where. A steamer, with 300 sick and wounded Yankees, arrived at New York from Pamunkey river on the 28th of May. Sprague, Governor of Rhode Island, has been elected Senator from that State for six years.
