hat the Northern people are very much dissatisfied with the courts of the Government in withholding the news from Vicksburg. A late issue of the Herald, it is said, confesses that Vicksburg can never be carried by assault, but that it can and will be taken by a protracted siege. Young Compton, who was to have been executed at Fort McHenry last Friday, upon the charge of being a rebel spy, has been pardoned by Lincoln. The Court-Martial in the case of Gen. Corcoran, for shooting Col. Kimball, has concluded its investigation. The result is a justification of the murder. The Secretary of War, on Thursday, ordered that all rebel officers out on parole be placed under close arrest, and no more paroles are to be granted until further orders. Alexander Spence, of Norfolk, for breaking into a store and robbing it, and then setting it on fire, is sentenced to be hung, when the day shall be fixed by Gen. Dix. By this fire the whole of Newton's Block was destroyed.

for the coming battle, and confident of success. General Meads had also, it was thought, concentrated his forces to a greater extent than the enemy, a large portion of whose army was still scattered up through the Cumberland Valley. Col. Wistar commanded the Pennsylvania "Bucktails," and Col. Stone also commanded a Pennsylvania regiment, and both were in the 2d brigade of the 1st army corps Col. S, at the time of receiving his wound, was acting as Brigadier-General of the brigade. General Newton took command of the 1st army corps on the fall of Gen. Reynolds. Gen. Paul commanded the 3d brigade of the same corps, and was a most efficient officer. Some gentlemen connected with the press who arrived here last (Thursday) evening, from Gettysburg, having left before daylight in the morning, represent, the condition of affairs at the close of the fight on Wednesday evening to have been still more favorable and promising of a successful issue than the previous information we

Negro boy Cyrus Missing. --Got separated from me on July 9th, near the battle field of Thursday, July 1st, my boy Cyrus, aged about 23 years, about 5 feet 7 or 8 inches high, black and stout, well formed, rather grum disposition.

It appears that the raid of Morgan into Ohio and Indiana was a pre-arranged movement, and that he was not driven over the Ohio river at Brandenburg by Gen. Hobson. This idea appears feasible; for if Morgan had been afraid of Gen. Hobson catching him he would not have crossed
requesting the representatives from this State, in the Confederate Congress to support such enactments as may be deemed requisite at the next session to secure the enforcement of the articles of war to prevent and punish desertion. Under the rules these resolutions were laid over. A large number of resolutions of inquiry were introduced, among them the following: By Mr. Alderson: Of suppressing the sale of all goods, wares and merchandize at public auction during the present war. By Mr. Newton: Of securing a fair and just distribution of salt among the citizens of the Commonwealth. By Mr. Dickinson: Of amending the law in respect to exemptions, with a view of diminishing the number of exempts from military duty. By Mr. Newman: Of requiring the Banks of the Commonwealth to receive on deposit Confederate States Treasury notes. The joint resolution submitted some days ago by Mr. Johnson, of Bedford, relative to the Virginia and Tennessee railroad was taken up, and on motion
a part, dashed upon the guard having the captives in charge, and rescued all but some twelve or fifteen. This, then, was the position of the forces on Saturday night at dark, with every prospect of a bloody fight on the coming day.--Buford was at Germania, the 1st and 6th corps extending from Raccoon Ford to Cedar Run; Kilpatrick, supported by the 2d and 3d corps, to the west of Culpeper, from three to four miles distant. Ewell had moved back from his position in the morning, and faced Newton and Sedgwick, while Stuart fronted French, Warren, and Kilpatrick in the vicinity of Bethel Church. Sunday morning, at 1 o'clock, our infantry force, both at the Rapidan and west of town, commenced moving toward the Rappahannock, their trains all having been sent back the night before, leaving the entire cavalry of Pleasanton to cover the retreat. Gregg had come up by forced marches during Saturday; so our cavalry force was by no means insignificant. A telegram dated the 12th, giv
The Legislature. --In the Senate a message was received from the Executive relative to the removal of the machinery of the Virginia Armory, or a portion of it, during the threatening of Richmond in the summer of 1862. A letter from the Secretary of War, accompanying the message, says only a small portion was removed, and that to Macon, Ga. The subject was referred to a select committee of five--Messrs. Douglas, Logan, Peters, Newton, and Ball. Mr. Collier introduced two bills--one to incorporate the Home Insurance Company of Petersburg, and the other the Southern Savings Insurance Company, of the same place. Mr. Bruce introduced a resolution relative to Government impressments, asking a conference with the Confederate authorities with the object of making impressments more equitable upon all sections, which was agreed to and referred to the committee. The Committee on Military Affairs reported on the militia bill of the Senate, and the House amendments th
n with eight days rations. The troops which had been marching on the left of the railroad were brought quickly over to the right, and Gen. Warren, seeing that the enemy had neglected to occupy the cut and embankment of the railroad, on the instant jumped his men unseen, into it. More prudence on the part of the rebel commander, or less sagacity on the part of the Union commander, would have proved the destruction of that corps. The rest of the army had all gone ahead. The 1st corps (Newton's) had already reached Manassas. The last one but Warren's — namely, the 5th, (Sikes's)--passed beyond Bristoe simultaneously with Warren's coming up, and just as he got engaged with the enemy he received from Sykes the comforting intelligence that he "was moving off slowly and in good order." Gen. Warren had formed his troops under cover of the cut and embankment of the railroad, constituting ready made breastworks. On the left he placed a defensive crotchet. Down rushed the enemy,
