o turn the tide of battle. Their success was for a time cheering, as they began to gain ground on us, appearing to have been reinforced but our left, under General Nelson, was driving them back with wonderful rapidity, and at 11 o'clock General Buell's forces had succeeded in flanking them and capturing their batteries of artillery. They, however, again rallied on the left, and recrossed, and the right forced themselves forward in another desperate effort; but reinforcements from Gen. Wood and Gen. Thomas came in, regiment after regiment which were sent to General Buell, who had again commenced to drive the rebels. About three o'clock P. M. Gen. Grant rode to the left, where fresh regiments had been ordered, and finding the rebels to be wavering, he sent a portion of his body-guard to the head of each of the five regiments, and then ordered a charge across the field, himself leading. The cannon balls were falling like hall around them. The men followed with a shou

Shinplasters. --Yesterday's paper contained a first-rate order from Gen. Winder, prohibiting the circulation from and after that date of individual notes as currency, and directing that the makers of such notes shall redeem the same in bankable funds upon presentation. Persons violating the order referred to are, by its terms, subject to arrest and such punishment as may be decreed by court-martial. Nothing, however well meant, can be gotten up now-a-days but that the ingenious sordidnence of the above order yesterday, many parties, more distinguished for cuteness than principle, took advantage of the ignorance of negro servants and indigent females to pay off their indebtedness to such in the prohibited stuff.

General division was ordered to form on the right and the forces under General Crittenden were ordered to his support. Early in the morning, General Buel having arrived the ball was opened at day light by Wilson's division on the left and Major-General Wallace's division on the right Gen. Nelson's force opened a most galling fire on the rebels, and advanced rapidly as the fell back. The fire soon became general along the whole line, and began to tell with terrible effect on the rebels. Gens. McClernand, Sherman, and Huriburt's men, though chiefly jaded from the previous day's fighting, still maintained their honors won at Donelson; but the resistance of the rebels was terrible, and worthy
