Richmond, Sept. 28—At a late hour last evening we received important and gratifying in formation from the lines of our army, which as sures us of the sustained success and progress of our arms. 'I’he news is meagre :ind general in its terms, but tis far as we relate it hi^re, may be treated as reliable. It ajt[)cars from statements whieii have not reached here in official form, but which we are assured iire credited byMhe government, that (Jen. Lee with the main body of’ his forces is in hot pursuit of .Mcl’lellan; that missitig hint from his front on 'I'hursday morning, he pursued him, came u]» with him on Friday, and after a sharp engage- Inent whipped the enemy again, who was retreat ing towards Frederick. The report of our forces Iiaving crossed to the .'■outh side of the I’otouiac has nothing more lor its foundation than I hat a deta(diment of our forces had been thrown aero.ss the river to jirotect our transportation from Har{>er’s Ferry against a re ported movement of Burnside on the south .side of the river. ()ii 'I'hursday morning (?en, Lee had commciic- ed to shell what he supposed to be Mc(Jlellan’s position, but discovering that he had uis.appeared entirely from the field, commenced the pursuit of the enemy, after having provided against the re- jiorted diversion of liurnside.

The following is a copy of the leading editorial of the ‘‘London 'Times,’' July 22, 18G2. “Nothing is 80 melancholy a.« forced merriment, and sorrow never wrings the heart more bitterly than when affliction or anxiety is cmipelled to as sume the appearance of rejoicing. There is a play of the old dramatist, John Ford, called the Broken Heart, in which the heroine is compelled to go through a solemn dance, although in the course of it she is told that her father is dead, that her dearest friend has committed suicide, and that her lover is murdered. She goes through the dance, and drops down dead at its clo.se.— Something similar to this must have been the mental torture endureil by a large portion of the American {lublieduringtbe festivals and rcjoicings which commeuKjrate the 4th oi July, the anniver sary of the nn’er-sufficiently-to-l)e-praised, and never Kufficiently-to-be-violated Declaration of In- deptMideiice ilow Hat, stale, and unprofhable must have sounded the conventional eloijuence and worn out enthusiasm which ceh'bratcd wars and (juarrels, the remembrance of which ought to sleep in the graves of those who made them. How jarring the music, how pale the tire works, how wearisome the {>rocessii»ns to mothers and sisters, to wives and liaughters, tormented with the well-grounded apprehension that in the bloody swamps of’ \’irginia were lying those most dear to them on earth—bappy indeed, ii dead, but only too probably lingering out the last retnnanfs ol existence under the cbillitii: dews of night, con l:r. ■'II EXEMPTION BILL AS PASSED BY THE SENATE. } — I’p to The Congress of the (’onfederate States ot I yellow fever was prevailing at America do enact.

After pouring forth blood like water, and fertil izing the fields of Virginia with thousands of corp.ses, the North itself obliged to begin all over again, with credit destroyed, a ruined revenue, a depre ciated currency, and an etjorruoiis debt. \xy, as if these were not sufficient, a HepuMic, based avowedly on the in alienable right of man to personal liberty, to life, and to Ihe pursuit of liappint-ss, and on the principle that Gov ernments are formed lor the purpose of establishing these rights, begins to talk of levying ,3(H»,ono men by conscription. Will nothing arrest this frantic andnuicidal rage.' Is there uo one from whom the American people will listen to the words of truth and soberness? We know that counsels of modertition, ever distasteful in themselves, are doubly .listaateful when coming from us; but we can scarcely believe that the infatuated multitude will remain as blind to the leaching of facta as they have hitherto be«n deaf to the voice of well meant expostula tion What proof do they yet require that they are embarked on a fatal and ruinous cause? Their wealth is turned into poverty, their peace into discord, their prosperity into wretchedness; the power in which they gloried is effaced; society is torn in pieces by the hands of Its own members; law is trampled under foot, aud the country ii fast falling into anarchy, the only refuge from which is despotism. W’e do not scruple to say that weshall rejoice if (he worst anticipation be realized—not from any ill w«il to the North, but because we see in the failure of its efforts to subjugate the Southern States the only pros pect—we had almost said the only possibility—of peace There is something pathetic, when compared with the language U) which we have been accustomed, in the ex treme ihankfuluess with which New Vork hails the es cape of the^rmy from absolute perdition. We hear no more of “strategic movements," of beta that McClellan would be in Richmond iu a week. Truth and nature have at last four.d utterauce, and the langu ige of en’pty swagger and v^ilful falscDood is thrown aside. “OouJd the army once make a stand, be peruitred a brief inter val of rest and time to throw up entrenchments und-'r the protection of the gunboats on the James ri.er all would bo well On Wcdnesaay and Tbursd^v th^re was no lighting.

Kut the fates were against the Yankees. The vessel lodged on the rocks above the precipice and with her noble flag flying proudly to the breeze, she became such an object ot annoyance to those who projected the experiment, that they expressed the intention to .send to Buffalo for a battery of artillery with which to dislodge her. Not to he behind their neighbors in Vankee- dom, the Rebels and Canadians also procured a boat, dubbed her the “Abe Laiculn,” and raised at her mast hei*d the “Stars and Stripes,” now the emblem of cruelty, oppression, duplicity, and everything meau. She was taken to a proper po..ition, turned loose to the current, and without delay or obstruction reached the precipice, made the mad leap and was dashed into a thousand frag ments. ” Wc hope and believe the incidents we have! narrated are typical of the fate of the two Gov ernments represented by the respective vessels, j a:ul Mnr^ l,olhye B.nnt. 1 North, the resident Surgeon of the Now ^ I Relief Rooms, New York, states that .1 • j ker, of the 1st Massachusetts regiment. i> in the seven day.s battle, was knock, i ; the horses attached to an artillery j; wheels pa.s.sing over his body, tbe wei-lit • - principally on the lelt side.
