VA. ered dete 1 Rigretee GYNERAL SUMNER'S PICKETS WITHIN TWO MILES OF CHARLESTOWN, a THE ENEMY LN SOME FORCE THERE. _— OUR ARMY RUSILY AT WORK. _ RUMORED MOVE OF THE CONFEDERATES UPUN WHEELING. = TULY PROPOSE TO MAKE A GRAND SWOOP UPON THAT POINT AND UPON CINCINNATI. _— Our impression is that our friends of the Bal- tir: American are in error in their statement this morning, tha: General Sumner occupies Charlestown, eight miles out from Harper's Ferry. On Saturday his advance was camped on the hills half-way between Charlestown and Harper's Ferry, while the former point was held by two brigades of Rebel infanty, trom Louisiana and North Carolias,) the 6th Virginia Cavalry, and their tst Maryland Bat- tery. Gen. Sumuer’s pickets, however, then held the ground to within about two miles of Charlestown. Gen. Greene's corps hold the Loudon Heigifs, which are now ovr left in Virginia. Hereulesn efforts are being made to prepare for crossing our whole army over, it seems to us, in the energy with which Gen. McCleNan‘s engineer and construction corps are preparing facilities for communication with his base of supplies and rear, in the shape of building an additional pontoon bridge over the river, and repairing the superstructure of the railroad bridge there. The former should have been passable last evening, and we trust the latter will be this or to-morrow evening. Thus it is evident that Gen. McClellan does not despise such necessary precautions for the due defence of his rear, neglect of which under the inspira- tion of that never-to-be-forgotten preliminary proclamation issued by Gen. Pope, led not long since to results so disastrous. The busy labor 92 3 portion of the army in the construction of these works, doubtles< gives rise to the now general belief that most of McClellan's force con be aguia in Virginia.

The necessity of transporting to them blankets, &e., is strongly urged. It appear: that the proportion of our wound- ed to those killed is very great—four to one on an ayerage. This arises from the use of com- mon guns by the Confederates, while the zo ernment troops, with their long rang and Minie bullets, kill nearly as many wound. PROMOTIONS IN THE ARMY OF POTOMAC.

On the afternoon of Thursdsy they were ordered to march in the direction of Big Falls of Potomac, being promised safe conduct across to Maryland. The whole Rebel army accompanied them during the afternoon and night, till towards morning, when they were stopped within five miles of Great Falls. Here the Rebel General Ripley made them a speech, saving that they ‘were enemies of the South; that if we were not for the South, they were against it; that their object in going to the battle-field was to gloat over _a supposed Confederate revease; and that he should send them te Richmond. &e, They were here placed in sixteen wagons and con- veyed over the rough and rocky road back to Gainesville. On the road the guards shot a hog, which was cut up and divided among the prisoners. They passed through the battle. field, on the way back to Gainesville, by a dif- ferent route to the two first, and saw a much larger number ot Union dead than on either of the other occasions. It being Saturday, the dead had been on the field sevendays unburied. In one place the dead of Gen. Stahl’s brigade overed the ground so thick as to almost touch j h other, They saw large piles of rails and wood, seemingly recently hauled for the inten. tion of burning the now black and putrid bodies.

One ef the most of this party is ome of the two-sisters ose brazen rye we of hate for Union wound- ed soldiers and of affection for Confederate sol- diers, was displayed in such a manner (as no- ticed in the papers) on Maryland avenue some Months ago, on the arrival of Confederate pris- oners and Union wounded from Shields’ di- vision. This woman, amongst other things, has taken a complew suit of clothes to this Confederate at Ryland Chapel Hospital. All this attention to him on the part of the secesh squad is quite gratnitous, as he was well and tenderly cared for by the I atvendaats and the Isiand Iadies who have been so faith- tl and zeatous im the discharge of their dudes ia providing for every want of the ho-pital ig- mates. Until the arriyal of this rebel soldier the secesh females of the ward have never darkened the doors of the hospital, and new they are there in such numbers and so inwn- sive in their attentions to the man of their sym. pathy, as to interfere with the hospital muenis and seriously disturb and annoy Union invalid soldiers there. These searssions ists haye no business there, and they ‘shonid receive such a stern hint as should deterthem from showing their faces there again.
