A fow days ago ap officer, im charge of a pairo), was abot while proceeding near a house where, by request, had stationed a safeguard of three men, The party inflicting the injury did it in a bushwhacking manner and ‘with a pistol, The officer, fortunately, was but slightly wounded, and it i# for this reason [refrain from giving his name, in order not to unnecessarily alarm his friends, Yesterday Genera) Howard had every man and woman arrested for a dixtance of two m jes around the plaice where the affair occurred, and brought to headquar- ters, Here they were held a# prisoner# and sepa- rately examined. after this the majority were discharged on giving their parole of honor to diecounte- nance al) bushwhackers and buehwhack mg, and to aid io every manner in causing their detection, Today have some of the party prisovers, in consequence of their being apparently doubtful characters, What their fate Will be is not yet decided; but it ts the determination of General Howard to fully carry out General Halleck’s or- der, and not only hold respousibie, but. if possible, pun- ash every one even seeming'y in any way connected with Doshwhacking and buebwhackers. While the examination was going on it leaked out that officers are in the habit of visiting the houses where ladies live, either with their parente, husbands or as widows. These women, io the presence of tbe aforesaid officers, express disloyal sentiments, In order not to offend them our oMcers do not restrict their remarke; bence they allow (perhaps unin- tentiopaily) these women to insult the government, the army and its fiag in their presence. Is this right? It shonld be the bounden duty of every noble feeling officer and soldier, from the high sense of honor with which ho supports his government, not to allow any living being {© even f0 much as insinuate a feeling of disrespect for ‘that government he fighta to uphold, and that army of which be is a part.

Aletter from the Army of the Potomac received vo- night says:— Capt. Hart, of the Foumh New Vork cavalry, war killed by the rebels, who had secreted themselves in thick un- derwood, and Wednesday morning fired into a party of our men who were engaged digging rifle pits, A musket Dall pierced his beart. His body was buried in the ceme- tery at Culpepper. A captain in the Seventh Michigan cavalry was wound- ed in tho right arm, below the elbow, by a shot. Four- teen others were wounded, including William Flanders, C.J. Bostwick, John MePbillips and F, Beach, all of the New York cavalry, and M. Schoonover, of Pennsylvania. Reports as to the strength of the enemy on the other wide of the Rapidan are numerous and conflicting. A telegram from headquarters, dated to-day, says:— Nothing of importance has occurred to-day. @ur po- sition on the Rapidan remains unchanged, The editor of the Star, who left Culpepper yesterday, Rays in his paper to-day — On Wednesday night the Union line extended from Stevensburg through Culpepper Court House to the Stone Mountain House, four miles north of the Court House. Yestorday morning the tine was changed, the army bay ing advanced to a close proximity to the Rapidan river, where the rebel corps of A. P. Hill and Ewell are be Neved to be now strongly fortified.

They probably concentrated and started from the vicinity of Dranes ville before making their excursion to this side. Some of the paymasters bave already started to tho army of the Potomac to pay off the troops for two months, now due. The law allows $424 year for eloth ing, which, ordinarily, is a sum sufficient for it; but as, im the recent battles, the soldiers, by order of their of- cers, threw away some of their equipments, &e., in order the better to prepare them for the conflict, they have been obliged to draw for additional supplies, thus ex ceeding the legal stipulated amount of money. In conae- quence of the lose sustained by them they are now re quired to settle for the overdrawn sum, therefore, their pay to this extent will now be decreased, Without legis lation by Congroea there ia vo remedy for thin hardship, Dut gentlemen connected with the army express the opinion that the welfare and compensation ef oor troops: will not be allowed to puffer owing to their obedience to the orders of their commanding officers, avd that provi sion will, during tho next session, be made for their benetis.
