Mitchell s column in Alabama. Two Chicago regiments con stitute a part of bis force —Turchin s Zouaves and the Hecher German Yagers. ggg-'The reply of Hon. E. B. Washburn to the attack of Boscoe Conkling, on the Committee on Contracts, will be found on the third page of this morning’s ThibctnE. The dispatch to the associated press gave the remarks, but omitted Washburn’s caus tic rejoinder. The debate was decidedly .Sharp and personal on both sides, and it is evident that the New Yorker did not “make four times'' off of the Illinoisan in his attempt, to screen rogues and plunder ers. _ ONE MORE BBICADIEE. The 009 th Brigadier—we confess cur m abilityto keep the account of file —has been nominated to the Senate. His name is—well it is in the dispatches and we were unacquainted with it before. He may be worthv enough, but the trouble is that with each new appointment, comes the complaint that some other man, equally meritorious, has been overlooked- For in stance, half the Indian*- colonels have been decorated with the stars, and how the In dianapolis Journal finds fault that one other is not promoted. In the present state of our national finances why not adopt the English plan of selling commis missions. We should In that case at least hear nothing about favoritism or of par tialilv. THE LOSSES SUMMED UP, The official recapitulation of our losses .in the battle of Shiloh, April C and 7, makes a total of 13,7G3 killed, wounded and miss ing, as follows; —killed, 1,735; wounded, 7.882 : missing, (prisoners) 3,956. This to tal singularly agrees with the first rough • ■estimate of. a "loss of from 12,000t0 15,000.’ -Subsequently it was undertaken to write down our loss, and some authorities (offi cial or otherwise) got it as low as 2.500. It was also estimated at first that the rebels had lost from 20.000 to 25,000. They, too, have since undertaken to write it down, and the Memphis papers now put it at 4,000. But .all accounts agree that the rebel killed _ and wounded strewed • the ground thicker than our own, as the estimate of Federal loss good we must be lieve that the rebel loss is nearly as first stated. In those two days, therefore, not less tb™ 35.000 men on both sides were put hors dv combat. It was an awful victory. A BATTLE AX SHILOH. Our dispatches from Cairo, brief and uu satlsfacUTv though they be, lead to no other conclusion than that the great battle of Shiloh—always impending since the last —has now actually begun. The tele- gram authorized for publication, and which ; is given elsewhere, says: “ The news - from Pittsburg is of ' the highest “importance but may not be given “to the public." Private advices are in the same tenor, one dispatch warning us (as a bint of the news coining) to be ready to meet an unprecedented demand fur pa pers. It must be, therefore, that the battle is in progress, and that until its conclusion the military censor has shut down on all information concerning it. TVe shallknow to-dny. Of the situation at Pittsburg we may say that since the arrival of Gen. Halleck the affair? of the army have been full of prom ise. The force on our side has been staled at 100,000, which some people have deemed too high. But whatever its strength it is the largest Federal column in the field, and the same may be said of the enemy. It is, therefore, the great field fight of the war. Since the former engagement each party has been reinforced by a concentration of troops. Gen. Pope ha? joined, on one side, with SO,OOO men; and Gen. Lovell (from N. Orleans) ha? added perhaps a? many to the j other. Gen. Halleck had re-organized the divisions of his army, and at last accounts our front was considerably on the way to ward Coiinth, with Lew "Wallace forming Uie right wing at Purdy and Gcr. Pope the left wing at some point mere to the south, threatening the rear of C\ rii:’h. I:: the reports of the second bai lie, also, many new names will appear of Griiends not engaged in the first, nnuT.g th*-m George 11. Thomas, Sherman ol Port Iloyal, Davies of ] yew York, and Pab orson of Penn., all of' whom had n hand in the earlier campaigns of the East. The array of men and military jroidus is more imposing here than upon ary other occasion in our history. It seems impossible, therefore, that any untoward result shall attend our arms; and we await the expected intelligence con fident of a ■victory that shall forever estab lish the integrity of the Union* The day is at hand. Capt. Gab Boock of the Oshkosh com- i pany, 2d Wisconsin regiment, (on the Poto mac,) has been appointed Colonel of the 18Lh "Wisconsin, vice Alban, killed at Shiloh. Three captains of this (the 2d) regiment hare time betn promoted to other commands— Captain Davis McKee of Grant county, to be Linntenaiit Colonel of the loth; Captain IVE liam E. Strong of Racine, to be Major of the -12 th; and Captain Bouck as above. fST When Gen, Butler took possession of Baltimore, shortly alter the breaking out of the war, the New Orleans journals made -merry at his expense, and declared be was on old colored barber, known as "Picayune But ler,” who formerly kept a shop under the St. Charles Hotel in the Crescent City.

Porter, late Speaker of the State Senate, and Marshall Carter, son of Dr. J. C. Curler, after being several mouths among the rebels- in the seceding States, re turned to their homes In Versailles.

HE MUST LEAD 150,000 MEN INTO THE NORTHWEST [From the Richmond Dispatch, April 33.] The fearful state of suspense in which, the city existed for two or three days has at last ended. New Orleans possession of this enemy. It was emanated by General Lovell, who has removed his forces to Camp Moore, on the Jack son Railroad. This is a heavy blow; ills useless to deny it. But we were anticipating it, and the pub lic mind had already become prepared for it before the truth had been fnlly ascertained. It is a heavy blow; but it is very far from being a fatrl blow. We may expect to hear of dis asters wherever the cnemj’s gunboats can be brought to bear on all the points still iu our possession. Give him all of them—every one of them—and still he is as far from bis object as he was this time last year. Hatteras fell, Hilton Head fell, Roanoke Island fell, New Orleans has fallen, but our great armies arc still in the field. They have not fall en—they have always beaten the enemy wherever they have encountered him. When thev shall have been beaten and dls- I persed so that they cannot rally again, then it may be time to feel gloomy about our pros pects. Until that time shall have arrived it were unmanly to less to think of abandoning the cause. Even then the last resource of a brave nation resolved not to be enslaved, remains to us. We can even then, as other nations have done before ns, resolve ourselves into a guerilla force, composed of the whole country, and fight the battle for life or death' throughout a million of square miles. But that lime is not come. They have not beaten our armies in pitched battle, nor do we believe they will ever do it. Beaure gard, with a powerful force, is still the guard ian of the Southwest. Johnston, with a force still more powerful, faces McClellan at York tovn. Stonewall Jackson presents an undaunt ed front in the valley; our armies in Georgia and South Carolina are unsubdued, and we con tinue to hold our own in the Old North State. The enemy has never been able to obtain an I advantage over us, except by means of his gunboats. Take him away from them, and we can alwavs defeat him. By the loss of New Orleans we are separated ! from West Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas and Missouri. But many of the brave troops from that side of tbe river are with us, and those that arc there will still keep up the light, in spite of their isolation. They will thus constantly employ a large portion of the ene my’s army, and serve as a powerful diversion in our favor. If every seaboard to wn in the Confederacy, and every river town which can be reached'by gunboats, w ere in the possess ion of the enemy to-morrow, it would not have the slightest effect upon the issue of tt,is contest. “It would not be so disastrous as a defeat of Beauregard’s army, or give half tin-same cause for despondency. Fortunate iv, they took no prisoners; our troops re main to reinforce Beauregard or to go else where as they may be ordered. ■ Tbe event of this war is still as much mt ae bends of our people as it was before the fall of New Orleans. Having made himself master of the river and seaboard towns, the enemy, if he wish to conquer us, must come into the interior. There he will have to beat ourarm ics, wlthoutthe aid of his iron-clad boats, be fore he boast of having subdued thecoun try. In the meantime the occupation of so many points must necessarily teud to the ■weakening of his strength upon those points on which the grand issue is to be decided, and thus far his success is scarcely a disadvan tage to us. Let our countrymen Imitate the firm and magnanimous conduct of our sires in the Revolution, and we doubt not to see our cause gloriously .triumphant, ■ [From the Norfolk Day Book, April 29 ] Disasters to a brave people arc but the falls of Antams, from which they rise with renewed energies and a firmer purpose. We have faith in our ultimate success; but should this prove fallacious wc can remember the example bl Suxastn —remember ami emulate it. Let us put our bumble trust in God, and fight from seaeoast to Interior, leaving monuments to commemorate cur resolution upon every field. Animated by this determination, whan say to their boasts of conquest in the heroic language of Wise, at Roanoke—Never, never, never. [From the Petersburg Express, April 20.] But there Is another aspect of. the matter I still more cheering to the Confederates. The \ large and fine army which was assigned for the dtjo'ce of 2\rtc (Means can now be united with (he army at Corinth in time to assist in the great rrork of driiing the Vandals out of Tennessee and Xmtucky, and in a march across the Ohio —a movement which, vre cannot doubt, will be commenced and cairied through at booh as the Tennessee, Cumberland and Ohio Kivers become too low for gun boat navigation. Then ■will be our op portunity for striking a crushing blow that will more than redeem all our losses. We want to see a column of 150,000 Southern troops led on by Beauregard through the Northwestern, and another column of the same strength through the Northera States by Johnf-ton, so that whilst the Yankees are taking our coast and river cities, we will be sweeping tbclre; and then-we would see who would suffer most and endure their suffer ings longest. The Romans, in a memora ble crisis, fonght the battles ol Italy In Nntnidia, and thus drove their Carthagenlau (almost) conquerors from their own cates. Let ub fight the battles of the South upon Northern soil. The capture of Philadelphia or New York would be to us a guarantee of I in thirty days upon our own terms. Wc have 400,000 soldiers in the field, of whom Napoleon, in the zenith of his glory, might have been proud. They would move with alacrity in the direction of Yankee land, if the word was just given them from Rich mond. Oh, that it may be given 1 as it ought to have been twelve mouths ago. Besides this huge army, which could easily support itself in the enemy's country, we would have a re ceive sufficiently powerful to protect ourvast interior, comprising a compact and populous territory between the Mississippi and Atlan tic, equal In extent to that of France, Great Britain and Ireland (leaving out half of Vir and :■!! Kentucky and Tennessee), whilst i,nr trans-Mississippi territory (leaving out Missouri', comprises a still huger area. Tue idea of a conquest of such a country Is pre* jH>>ttrouslv absurd, and the fall of New Or leans, although to be much lamented, docs not put the invaders an inch nearer the con summation of their accursed purpose. It may, in the dispensation of Providence, turn out to have been forusan advantageous event. The ways of God are mysterious, aud he di rects the affairs of men so as often to lead them to consider au evuil calamitous which afterwards proves ihe happiest that could have occurred for their welfare. Wc have long since u filed our mind” down to the be lief,’ that if the cause of the South Is Divinely favored, it will and most triumph. If not, It will and must perish, were it supported by millions of armed men and hundreds of iron clad war vessels of the most powerful de scription. So far,Jwc have had alternate suc et-ssea and reverses which have not been de cisive. Wc must fight on with a more terri ble energy than we have done. We must now concentrate our forces at fewer points, and hurt them upon the foe. We must abandon the merely defensive policy, and assume and maintain it at all hazards the position of bel ligerents, able to give as well as to receive blows. With half a million of men prepared and eager for action, we can make ourselves felt beyond the limits of the Confederacy. Colonel Crocker and major Cassidy, i Opinions difier whether these gentlemen, officers of the 93d New York Regiment, did or did not desert to the rebels before York town. Their regiment was in advance of Ca sey’s brigade, across Warwick river, and with Id 1,100 yards of a rebel battery. It seems that on the evening cf the 2Sd ult,, after sap per, these two officers walked out, and being forbidden to pass one outer picket they turn ed to another picket and went on. In a few nannies hallooing was heard—the sign that they were prisoners. The Albany Eoening JovmtO. says: 14 No one who knows Col. Crocker his the least suspicion of his loyalty; for few men have lirmter cause to ba»r all rebeldom than be. When the war broke out, hU father (over seventy years of age) lived with one of his sons at Lewlnsburg, Virginia. The old gen -11 < man was an intense Unionist, and persisted in giving expression to his sentiments, and In displaying the old flag, long after it was either prudent or safe to do so. Alter the battle of Lewinsburg, which was fought upon his farm, be was arrested, barbarously treated, stripped of his clothing, and sent off to Richmond a prisoner—where he now is, if living. The patriotism of a son, with, such motives for entering the field, cannot be questioned. Bat, is addition to this, he has two brothers in the service, who, like himself; hate ail rebeldom, as w ell for Its treason as for it* barbarity. “‘And Major Cassidy was among the earliest Vo offer hie services, and would be last to voluntarily leave But both, as the story stands, were Indiscreet, and will ba like jv to suffer lor their indiscretion, even though tney should both escape a rebel prison. - HF There is a rumor that the New York World, Which has gained no other living than to eat up the substance of its backers as a sexul-rellgions paper, has been purchased by parties who will make it the Metropolitan or ganofthe new nomocracy. It was expected to come-out under the new ban ner<m the Ist last. ; The Murderer Batzkr Arrerted at St. Louie as aa Army Hone Contract or-'Tli© Great Mystery Still unex plained. [From the St. Louie Democrat of yesterday.] Ignalz Eatzky, the long sought for murder er and robber ofSiglsmundTellner,haa at last been arrested in this city, and will shortly depart for New Jersey, to be tried for his aw ful crime. The manner in which the arrest resulted is interesting and instructive. Some days aso Mrs. Susan Mcßearon, residing in Franklin county, was waited upon by a man t lying his name as 3. Teiber, and represented imsclf as engaged in buying horses for the Government. He bought of her a horse at the stipulated price of $95, he paying $lO at once, giving his note for the balance, and promising to call soon and pay the remainder. Finding that he failed to appear, she commu nicated the facts to Police Chief Couzens, of this city, who, perceiving that “Teiber” was an imposter, instituted a search for him. It was discovered that he resided, at pock Spring, and thither a policeman was sent to arrest him. The officer found him ab sent, hut learned that he was in the habit of frequenting a certain boarding-house on Franklin avenue. “ Teiber” was there found on last Monday morning, and was taken to the Chiefs office. Upon seeing the prisoner, Chief Couzens was instantly struck with his resemblance to the picture and description of Eatzky. The picture exhibited him in a mili tary dress, and Capt. Couzens immediately seized a soldier’s cap and put it upon “ Tei ber,” and then made him put on a soldier’s coah The resemblance was then ths more striking. The Police Chief caused “ Teiber’ a” picture to be taken in spldler’s dress and without it, and sent the copies to the New York Chief of Police, who at once telegraphed back that the man was doubtless Ratzky. Up to Wednes- 1 day forenoon, the fact that his real identity ; was known had not been communicated to the prisoner. He was then again- brought up to the office of the Chief, who suddenly and sharply addressed him with, “Eatzky! you’ve got to go back to New York!” “ Mr. Teiber” jairly sprang backward with surprise, and in stantly exclaimed, “Tint’s my name; I’U go back.” Having been thus startled into so much of confession, he owned that he knew Sigismund Fellner, and was the man whom the police of the country had long been vainly In search of. • He has made, In German, a professed state ment of the principal facts in his history, and especially ot his connection with Fcllncr. The nai native carefully avoids anything like a cou iftssion of guilt, and Is, therefore, necessarily rather incoherent, and exhibits some very irregular features, Ratzky’s account of the manner In which he became so intimate with Fellner is quite unsatisfactory, and becomes more so when* it Is remembered that he had been intimate with Mrs. Marx prior to her journey to Eurrpe. He also leaves us in the dark as to the tenor of the conversations between Fcllncr and the ladies, at which he was repeatedly 'present. One marvels that, since he so well remem bers Ft-llner’s expression on the ferry boat, on the night of Ms disappearance— an expression of suicidal intent—-Ratzky re mained so sccnpulously and closely in the cabin and paid no attention to his friend. Alto, why Katzky remained all next day at home in the boarding house where Fellner’s trunk was a»d contented himself with the odd surmise that Fellner and Albertina had gone to California. It is strange that only the concern and activity of Mrs, Spen cer should at last have taken him to the house of Mrs. Max. where Mrs. Spencer’s further and nndesired enterprise in the mat- , ter was put to rest by the present of a shawl, afterwards of two dollars, and subse quently of five hundred francs! His silence as to the contents of Fellner’s trunk, and the utterwant of disposition on the port of any of them to identify the recovered body of Fellner, speak most significant of guilt. Add ed to these facts are the furtive disappearance End concealment of Ratzky, the suicide of Al bertine, and the attempted self-destruction of her sister, together with the absence of aay favorable explanation as to what become of Fcllncr’s diamonds, aud the repeated false hoods in which Eatzky has been detected since his arrest. From what wre can gather he has for some months past been, engaged in Franklin and adjoining counties, in buying or stealing, and si’Ping horses —visiting Bt. Louis occa sionally, and then residing Car in the suburbs. The police of the city have at times obtained evidence of his presence here, but were uua ble to gain satisfactory indications of it,much lees to get upon his track. We understand that the several rewards offered for tvs c ip ture now amount to the snug sum of So.OtKJ. Wtdrcsday evening Police Chief Couzens received a telegram of Supt. Kennedy of the New York police, stating that the New Jersey police had been notified of the arrest, and that a deputation of them would at once proceed, with the Governor’s requisition, to St. Louis, to receive the prisoner. Negroes Uniformed and in Arms. Two miles and a quarter below Torktown are three Bebel forts, on the west side of the Warwick river; in front of one of them Lient. Wagner, of Philadelphia, was killed. Oar ar tillery have shelled them ont a number of times, and an encampment in the rear has been so riddled that their barracks have been deserted. They have in these three forts.six guns—two in the left one, three in the center, and one on the right. The dam of the War wick river runs In front, preventing them from coining over, or our pickets from reaching them. The artillery, however, make it so hot that they can not stay in the forts. In the center one be seen, every day, from two to three hundred negroes, with red coats, gray pants and slouch hats, strengthening the work with sand-bags, digging ditches, &c. Whenever tbev dare to come out to fire their artillery, which la simply licld artillery, those negroes ram home the balls which white men ] fire at the hearts of our. soldiers. Any one who donbts that the rebels are fighting side by side with their slaves can be convinced at any hour of the day by going up to the of the woods, about twelve hundred yards in front of their wofks- With the aid of any or dinary glass, the matter cat be put beyond room fora doubt. —Yorktovn Cor. Philadelphia Inquirer. “The Way to Fight Them*” [From the Norfolk Day Book, April 2L] The by Gen. Slagruder, of lighting the Yankees whenever they appear, without regard to numbers, is evidently the true theory' of conducting the struggle from this time. The enemy should not be allowed to make a step forward without en countering bloody evidence of the fixed and unalterable purpose of our people to resist the intolerable yoke of oppression so esnl tlngly prepared for our subjutralion. Wails of mourning must be brought home to every huUM-bohl iu the North, and the returned car cases oftheir dead will Instruct them, “ trum pet* tongued,” oftheir fruitless attempt to foil a people thoroughly bent on being free. General Magruder parlakes of an intense hat red, comparable only to the man whose aver sion to snakes led him to kill them, though ibcy were Inoffensively exhibited in the me nagerie, and when upbraided by the keeper, replied, 41 Damn ’urn, I kills ’nm whenever I eeis ’nm.” The Secretary of the Society for the Increase of the Ministry of the Episcopal Church in New York, issues a circular, la which he Is compelled to make public the fact that there are now no fewer than five hun- dred parishes, in the Northern States alone, which are vacant, the largest proportion of which are in country places and nnable to pay large salaries to the rector; and this, too, when there are many ministers standing Idle in the market place, unwilling to accept and labor lu any of these parishes, bnt waiting for parishes in the city, or in the large towns of the West, py It Is but two or three days since we re ceived the news of the capture of New Or leans, yet we find In the Boston papers of last evening an announcement that two Urge ves sels have cleared at that port for New Orleans loaded tcith ice .

THE LATEST NEWS BY TELEGRAPH. FROM WASHINGTON. A UNFIT TO MILITARY HONORS. BTiB-RT. PERSECUTION OP QHA- SEES. Trade Opening with New Or- leans. [Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune ] ■Washington May 2,1862. Senator Grimes introduced a bill to-day limiting the number of Major Generals to twenty, and of Brigadiers to two hundred. He expressed the general disgust of the Senate at the recent nomination of a batch of men in no wise distinguished. Mr. Sumner gave notice of a hill prohibit ing coastwise traffic in slaves. The Homestead bill, after being amended in accordance with a report from the Senate Committee on Territories, went over till Mon day; Senator Pomery expressing a desire to sptak. Mr. Carlfle declared himself nnaltera hly opposed to any homestead policy, and urged a substitute giving the public land to ttc soldiers in place of their bounty money. Twenty or thirty political prisoners have been released from the Capitol prison, and twenty rebels captured at Fredericksburg have taken their place. There are over 3,000 sick soldiers here. Numerous applications have been made to the Treasury Department for the privilege of sending South vessels freighted with salt and ice. It is said the Dunkards Settlement of Quakers was lately pounced upon by the reb els and its members taken to Richmond. They were offered release on condition of the pay ment of SSOO a piece in silver. $22,500 ran som was in this way paid over. The unfortu nates who could not raise the money were de tailed for duty among the negro teamsters. Two applications for compensation were made to the Emancipation Commissioners of the District yesterday for one slave each. The roads along the Rappahannock and Shenandoah valleys are almost impassible, and bridges, &c., can’t be built in a day. Meantime our slow and sure movements give opportunities to the rebels to back out. It has been determined to rc-coustitntc the Department of Kansas, separating it from the Department of Missouri and putting it under a General directly responsible to the War Department- The commander has not yet been selected, but Gen. Blunt is for the pres ent put in charge, Gen. Sturgis having been ordered to Washington to give an account of his doings. Gen. Denver is sent to New Mex ico, and Gen. Mitchell is ordered out of the State. Secretary Welles has issued instructions to the Flog Officers of blockading squadrons, dated April 80tb, as follows: The approach of the hot and sickly season upon fhe Southern coast renders it imperative that every precaution be used by officers commanding vessels, to continue the present excellent sanitary condition of their crews. The large number of contrabands flocking to the protection of the flag affords an opportunity to provide in every department of the ship and to prepare for boats’ crews, acclimated labor. Flag Officers are therefore required to obtain the ser vices of these persons for the country by enlisting them freely in the Navy, with their own consent, rating «iw»*n as boys at from eight to ten dollars a month and one ration. Let monthly returns be made of the number of this class of persons em ployed on each vessel under your command. Postmaster General Blair and Assistant Sec retary of the Navy, Fox, went to Ft. Mouroc, this afternoon. The Emancipation Commissioners refuse re* porters permission to examine tlie petitions of slaveholders, or to take notes of their pro ceedings. The Washington Republican alone is accorded the latter privilege, on condition that no editorial criticism shall be made. In the Senate, to-day, Mr. Trumbull failed to get a vote on the confiscation measure. Messrs. Doolittle, Wade, and Cullamcr made characteristic speeches, and then Saulsbury of Delaware, talked the question over till Monday in a speech, reminding his hearers of anti-re bellion days; with talk of nigger equality, etc. He made a prophecy that we would have more slaves in 1870 than in ISCO, if the hill passed and local State Governments remained, because, while they would reduce to bondage the confiscated, they would also enslave all free negroes. He con fessed that he would favor that policy in Del aware if 5,000 more free negroes were to come there. He declared that Delaware would never again be represented in the House by a re publican like Fisher. * Mr. Fisher, at about the same time, in the House, in reply to Mr. Sauisbury’s former complaints about the arrest of white men iu Delaware, gave a list of the persons arrested, and showed why; adding that disloyal white men are infinitely worse Ilian loyal blacks. The House special Confiscation Committee are ss one as regards the main question of confiscation, and are by majority for emanci pation. Messrs. Mallory of Ky., Koell of Mo., and Steele of N. J., hold back from the latter. Probably two bills, one effecting each object, will be reported; but If a satisfactory bill should come from the Senate first, it will be taken up and passed to save time. Mr. Trumbull has amended his bill slightly, in conformity with the views «f the committee, in order to secure its passage. It now pro aides for the confiscation ot real and personal property ol leading classes of rebels, the emancipation of all their sUvea after a certain lime, and a general confiscation after sixty cays. "Washington May 2-d.—The Senate confirm ed the appointment of Brigadier Generals O. M. Mitchell and Ord, to be Major Generals of volunteers; and Captain John Gibbons of the 4tU artillery to be a Brigadier General.

How Beauregard’* Dispatch was Taken off at Huntsville—A very Reasonable Explanation* Cikcisxati, May 2.— The CommerdaTs correspondent, with Gen. Mitchell’s army, gives the following explanation of the nun iitr in which Beauregard’s dispatch was taken at Huntsville, The wires were broken at a point beyond Huntsville and Beauregard’s disnatch, already received at Huntsville, was being prepared by the operator there to be forwarded by locomotive to Cbattauoga, and thence reported by telegraph to Richmond. wh»nGen Mitchell surprised the town and instantly seized the telegraph office. Gen. ' Mitchell himself solved tbe cypher after an hour’s study. There, is no doubt as to the genuineness of the dispatch. Beauregard lost not lees than 20,000 men in killed and wounded and prisoners, and the tick used up and panic stricken during his movement from Corinth* upon Pittsburg Landing.

Foote Promises a Close At tack on Tuesday. Caibo, May 3.—On Tuesday CoL Dickey, with a large force of cavalry, made a rccoin nokfiaiice towards Purdy, ten miles north of Corinth. Some lour miles this side he carge upon a large force of rebel cavalry, who fled in great disorder on the approach of onr troops, who pursued them and took posses sion Of the town. After destroying a loco motive and two bridges, and taking several prisoners, including a lieutenant, our force retired. Subsequently General Lew. Wallace’s division moved forward and took possession of the town without opposition. We did not 'lose a man. Previous to this exploit, the enemy’s left flant had rested on Purdy. Our mortar-boats below are firing on Port Pillow at intervals of ten minutes. Commo dore Foote is preparing for a general attack on the rebel works on Tuesday. An attack on onr fleet was expected from the rebel gua boats, and their entire flotilla formed in line, ef battle, but no demonstration was made. The rebels reply to our mortars at long rates, but without effect. The river rose an inch in twenty-four hours. The Illinois Central Railroad is running a fer- ry-boat to Cash riVcr bridge, so that trains ar rive and depart regularly. The river is stationary, and eight inches higher than was ever before known. The news from Pittsburg is of the highest importance, but its transmission over the wires is prohibited. The bombardment of Fort Pillow is contin- utd by our mortars at shorter intervals. It was generally believed that a simultaneous attack would be made by the fleet before the close of the week. . Deserters say that the entire rebel gun-boat fleet, under command of Hollins had arrived at Fort Pillow, and would make an attack on Com. Foot as soon us their preparations were completed. Memphis papers of the 29th ult. say that a meeting held on the night previous had con cluded to burn the city in case of the ap proach of Federal troops. The fall of New Orleans is referred to, but no particulars are given. Editoiials urgently call on the people to reinforce Price, at Fort Pillow, as the only hope of the salvation of the city. Gov. Tates left here to-night for Pittsburg ■with the steamer Champion, fitted up to ac commodate 400 wounded Illinois soldiers. He also takes up a large quantity of sanitary stores lor distribution among Illinois hospi tals. PirtSßunc, Term., April 30. To Hon. E. M. Blanton Movements continue. Tbc roods arc bard and require a great deal of work for heavy trains. The rcconnohsance to Purdy was suc cessful. They destroyed two bridges on the Mohi’e and Ohio railroad. Captured one loco motive and a train of men. [Signed,] Thomas A. Scott, Asa st Sec. FROM McOLELLM’S ARMY. THE REBELS gEING REINFORCED. Grand Artillery Duel of Two Honrs. Our Guns Gettins into Eange. Before Yorktowx, May I. —On Tuesday a steamboat was seen with a load of troops be fore Yorkfowm They probably came from West Point, thirty miles above, indicating that the enemy is being reinforced instead of preparing to evacuate. Battery No. 1, at the month of Wormley’s Creek, and commanding the rebel water bat terUsat Yorktown and Gloucester, opened vesUrday upon the enemy’s shipping at a range oi about two miles. The first snot, which was followed in rapid succession by others, caused the rebel vesselstobeata hasty retreat out of range. No damage was sup posed to be sustained by the enemy’s vessels, as the range had not been obtained. Tie guns were then directed towards the 1 worts at Yorktown and Gloucester, with the i view of getting a reply. They were not long kept waning, when the large pivot gun sta tioned on the heights of Yorktown sent a mf'fEen° , er which caused every one to jump for the trenches. The fire was now kept up quit e bristly for two hours from both sides, with no damage, so far as we are concerned, although some of their shells came too close to make it pleasant. Some of onr shells were seen to explode directly over the ene my's parapets, which a moment before were lined with men. About sixty shots were fired from our 100 and 200-ponnder Parrots during the afternoon. What damage the enemy sus tained is unknown- The enemv opened upon our parallel where the workmen, were employed, about dusk throwing shells at intervals during the night. No one was hurt. . . ... Heavy April showers still continue to visit ns daily, retarding in a considerable degree military operations. Two deserters belonging to the Mississippi battalion, commanded by Col- Taylor, camped mar Ymktown. deserted last night while on p.t ket dutv. They arc both Northern men. TUw could give little or no information. Generals Johnston and Magruder made speeches last week to all the troops, calling <«„ them ton?e everv exertion to defeat the Northern invaders, that they should never sniander so long os there was a man left; that if they were defeated at Yorktown the „ cause of the Confederacy was gone, as they . were determined to rest their cause in this " tbeir last battle. PROM THE SOUTH. Capitulation of New Orleans, Gen, Duller within a Few Miles, He Conies via Lake PoHtchartrai ICtTIIEB MSCEESISG FORT HICOS. Fobtbess Mokroe, May X.—The flag of truce from Craney Island this afternoon brought down an English nobleman and scl eral newspapers, giving the particulars of the capture of Fort Macon, and some additional particulars of the fall of New Orleans, with other Interesting items. The Norfolk Ifay Book of this (Thursday) morning, says: “No telegraphic messages were received last night.” The Wilmington Journal of Tuesday has the following in confirmation of the fall of Fort Macon, telegraphed here yesterday: We have just learned that the fire upon the fort was opened a quarter before six o’clock on Friday morning, and that the engagement between the fort and the Federal batteries was kept up until seven o’clock that evening, when the fort became wholly untenable and was surrendered as above stated. All the guns ins de the fort opposite to the side attacked wei e dismounted, and all but three of the guns hrorirgupon the enemy’s batteries were also dismounted. Tbe enemy’s central battery of breaching guns was within 1,100 yards of the fort. The risht and left flanking batteries wore more distant. It turns out that the report of fifteen of our men having been killed in a scont some days *ince against the enemy’s pickets is untrue. One man only was wounded and none were killed, until Friday last, the day of the attack QD Froinotber accounts it Is gathered that dur ing the bombardment of Fort Macon seven rebels were killed and a great many wounded. CoL White and due hundred and fifty men were released on parole by Gen. Burnside. A Suffolk correspondent of the Petersburg jZxprcs*. under dale of April SOtb, says all were expecting to hear something from the Mem mac this morning, but the Norfolk Bay Book la silent. The Petersburg Bxpras of to-day tays that many rumors were in circulation yesterday, them one of the evacuation of Memphis and Corinth; also the report of the capture of Wilmington, N. C., by General Breckinridge and Htadman have been made Major Generals, and Colonel W, A.

Farragnt had proposed terms of cap itulation to Mayor Monroe, which the latter accepted, the city of New Orleans was at last accounts held by a battalion of marines from the Federal squadron. General Butler’s forces were within a few miles of the city, having landed on Lake Pont cLar train. Infr- __ formation was received at Norfolk yester day that Capt, Mclntosh, the supposed com mander of the gunboat Louisiana at New.Or leans, hfld been badly wounded. When or where was not stated. From another source it was also learned that Captain" Thomas Huger, supposed to be the Commander of the Mcßae, was mortally wounded in the same engagement. . New York, May L—A special dispatch to the New York "from Fortress Monroe, says three or four rebel boats off Sewali’s Point to-day, appeared to be placing buoys to mark the channel. Gen.Prtnties and seven hundred Federal prisoners had arrived at Selma, Ala. The offi cers were to he sent to Talladgea and the pri vates to Montgomery. Com. Hollins passed through Columbia, South Carolina, on Saturday, en route to Rich mond. He is amazed at the fall of New Orleans. He states that there were one hundred heavy guns iu position be i tween Fort Jackson and the city—that i the gunboat Louisiana was ready and wilt ing—that numerous boaxdingparues were or ganized to capture the national vessels at all hazards, and that the gunboat Mississippi, though unfinished, could he brought into ac tion.

The Commercial publishes passages of a let ter from Gen. Grant, in reply to a letter in forming bim of the natures of criticisms on Lis management of the bailie of Pittsburg. Gen. Grant sajs: “I will go on and*do my dutytothe very beet of my ability, without praise, and do all X can to bring this war to a'speedy close. I am not an aspirant for anything at the close of the war. There is one thing I feel well as sured of; that is, I have the confidence of every brave man in my command. Those who showed the white feather will do all in I their power to attract attention from them- I selves. I bad perhaps a dozen officers arrest [ ed for cowardice in the first day’s figbt. These men are necessarily my enemies. As to the talk about a ‘surprise,’ here nothing could be more false. If the enemy had sent us word when and how they would attack, we could not Lave been better prepared. Skirmishing had been going on for two days between our rcconnoitcring parlies and their advance. I did not believe, however, they intended to make a determined attack, but simply making reconuolssances in force. My headquarters were Savannah, though I usually spent the day at Pittsburg. Troops were constantly ar riving, to be assigned to brigades and divis ions. All were ordered to report at Savau hah, making it necessary to keep an office ard some one there. I was also looking for Gen. Buell to airivc, and it was important I should have every arrangement complete for bis speedy transit to this side of the river.” PROCEEDINGS OF CONGRESS, Washingtoh, Hay 3, 186-3 SENATE.

Mr. WASHBURNE of 111., from the Com- mittee on Commerce, reported a bill granting powers to the Secretary of the Treasury, al citiouul to those conferred by the bill of the !“th of July last, —“providing for the collec tion of duties on imports and for other pur poses."

Mr. WABHBUBNE of Illinois also defended Gen. Grant from similar charges. Mr. EICHABDSON of Illinois thought all these things ought to be left to the military authority.

FROM GES. MITCHELL’S COLUMN Sharp Skirmish Sear Bridgeport. OFFICIAL BEPOBT TO jHE WiH DEPARTMENT. To Hon. E. H- Stanton; On yesterday the enemy, having cut our wires, attacked during the night one of our brigades. I deemed it my duty to head in person the expedition against Bridgeport. I started by a train of cars in the morning, fol lowed by two additional companies of cavalry. I found that our pickets had cogaged the enemy’s pickets four miles from Bridgeport, and after a sharp engagement, in which we lost one killed, I drove them across a stream, the railroad bridge of which I had pre viously burned. „ ’ , "With four regiments of in urn try, two pieces of artillery dragged by hand, and two compa nies of cavalry,*'at Bridgeport, we advanced to the burnt bridge and opened our fire upon the enemy’s pickets on the other side, thus pro ducing the impression that our advance would be by the railroad. This accomplished, the entire force was thrown across the country about a mile and put on the road leading from Stevenson to Bridgeport. The middle column now advanced at a rap id pace. Our scouts attacked those of the enemy and forced them from the Bridgeport road. We thus succeeded in making a com plete surprise. Immediately forming our Hue of battle on the crest of a wooded bill, within 500 yards ot the works, we constructed to defend the bridge. At our first fire the rebels broke and ran. They attempted to blow up the main bridge, but failed; then at+empted to fire the further extremity, but the volunteers at my call posh ed forward in the fire and saved the bridge. From the island to the main shore we could not save it. It is of small moment. Its length is but 450 feet. . . - . , . Prisoners report five regiments of infantry and 1,600 cavalry stationed at the bridge. This campaign is ended, and I now occupy Huntsville in perfect security, while in ail Alabama north of the Tennessee Riveriloats no flag hut the old flag. [Signed] O. 3L Mitchell, Brig.
