The returns have been made from nearly ail tb.e Regi ments, but the labor is go great they have not been til recorded on our books. But a probable estimate of ihe losses can be formed by taking a number of Regiments and making n average, which we have done and find tint it wouM be safe to say that our Joss in killed, died and discharged fir disability, will rtach at least forty per Ant. cf ;hc whole. Our list of killed and those who have died fom wounds and creases is indeed gieat. but I am not prepared to gife the figures nl I have made no estimate since t!e beginning of the year. Many regiments have lont from 6 to'SOO and our looks wili show, when coin pie ted. our entire ics; v.d from vrhat cause.

He lost, whila on the xp-dition, between 3 600 and 4,000 men, besides 2 J Inden t and 2 1 Missouri b.-it-tem's.! In the train captured near: Camden he lost 196 six-mule wagons and "2 3 six mule wagons in the engagement on M-.ro Bottom, near the Sdine river A great portion of the lost were killed. Two negro regiments were nearly exterminated, "By the time this reaches you, yon will have heard of this commind striking the enemy a very unexpected blow, and a very serious one, if 1 am hot mistaken.

With such a man as Forrest to lead us, its personal as a cavalry lorce is hard to excel. We are anxious for an advance especially the gallant Kentuckians, under their noble leader, Gen. Bufonl." We find in the Wilmington paily Journal- letter from a Nassau correspondent, giving a list of the ves sels which have run or attempted to run the block ad e from that port, with the fate of each, from which it appears that out of 45 attempts to run the block ade from Nassau alone, 8G3 have been successful, and &ly 62, or about one in seven, unsuccessful.

V . We have no fears fcr Richmond, not the slightest, nor any reverence for Grant as a o;reat Gener-d. His object being the capture of Rich mond and Gen. Leo's army; what evidence of gen eralship was there in permitting Lee to strip him of Siiveuty five thousand men on his way to Rich mond by tae Rpidan, when by adopting at on McCiellan's rnovement'on tha Peninsula he cou c Id have gived that immense force and thrown it be tweeu L :'a and the South. 'Would not the seven ty-five thousand cion he has lost by com'ng on thnt fa;ious line which he vowed he would stick to if it took all summer be very convenient now to move upon the rear of Petersburg, a movement which-he may intend smII to make, and which, if he were a great General, he would have provided forty placing there that immense ho3t which be has nijtde food for Confederate rifl?s. The Times may make" itself easy. We do not think tbat either Richmond or Gen. Le's array is ever destined to Lecome-the; prey of Yankees. Richmond Dis patch. TOO MUCH MILITARY RULE The Columbia Carolinian sajs : No judicious lover of freedom ever denied tbe propriety of tem porarily sacrificing a- portion of tt freedom in order permanently to secara it all. The only question suoh a man would feel inclined to raise i-, whether the saciifice bo really necessary and, if so, bow muchof the precious( estate wasreqiti ite to attain the pwipose. Aware of this, we have never doubted for a moment the constitution ality of the suspension of j; the habeas corpus ; and we are now disposed eaen to concede that there may havo be n an ? that there may be still grounds for the suspension of that act which we have not been ablo to divin3. It is not therefore, with reference to this particular me'asure or toanyoth er, that we wish to drop a few general words of caution vy'th regard to the present predominance of the military power. I That predominance is ulight in comparison to wrat it i at the North, yet nobody can refuse to see that there isa grow ing tendency upon tho part of our authorities to increased, and a growing; tendency upon the part of thje people to eubuit to its increase. There may be no danger in thi for, as a nation, we still preserve, in all their integrity, our who'esome opin ions of constitutional law, and it is not unlikely that at the close' of tho revolution - there maybe still left health enough in the body politio to pre voct such deleterious consequences, as in- most countries, would certainly follow from this state of things. Nevertheless, we should be careful how we tamper any more than we can a, void, with the civil liberties which we have hitherto enjoyed.. Hah its of mind are acquired almcstas ea.-i!y by nations tB by individuals, and we may become a little too ac customed to the thought of arbitrary rule, and a little too contented with a limited share of our lawful franchises. We must not be altogether deaf to the warning which lies in the fact that the history of most republics' has" culminated in des potism Such, t w, will surely be the culmination vf the history of our Northern antagonists, who once suppoied, a? sifte from so- ignominious a ftte as we hotter ourselves that we are at this day. It is true we have a conservative element amidst us which we have good and philosophical reasons to believe to make us an acceDtionable case. But even with the assurance which this fact supplies us, we cannot be more confident that we shall nev er fall i.s republic3 have hitherto fallen, than, with a few exceptions, we were not many years ago, that we lived under the best government the world ever saw. Thetways of Providence are in 8f curable the paths of catijns, aa of sinners, are slippery, and wr must walk warily and watch nar rowly, lest we trip ani stan.ble into some unex pected abyss. f m s m !- Promoted.
