The Rebel Cemetery at Warrenton:  A correspondent describes the graveyard at the southwest of the town of Warrenton, Va.  The mortality among the rebels has been fearful.  There are over a thousand ne the rough headboards, seem to be in the majority.  How the soldiers from this State have suffered since the war broke out.  The mass of the rebel troops killed at Antietam were from Georgia.  Fresh garlands of flowers are placed daily on many of these graves by the ladies afflicted with secesh proclivities. They do this, no doubt, with the intent to show us how ardent they are in their politics.  Poor misguiding creatures, they now begin to realize what war is.
