Smith came up with his command and relieved Gen. Franklin, and whipped the rebels badly. Twelve pieces of cannon were recaptured and eight hundred prisoners takenre, five or six miles from the battle field, to organize. We lost twenty four pieces of artillery, all that were in the fight. This letter also says that Gen. Smith captured two thousand prisoners and thirty-six guns in a fight on the 9th. Still another letter says: We get all sorts of reports from the front. The latest is that Gen. Smith whipped the rebels, taking two thousand prisoners and eighteen guns. The expedition is no doubt broken up, and our troops are falling back. Gen. Banks is mentioned as having been on the field on the 8th. Cairo, April 20.--Information obtained from reliable sources confirms the statement of t

General — An extended spirit of desertion prevailing among the recruits recently received from the North, in some of the regiments of my command, has led me to make some inquiries resulting in apparently well authenticated information, which I beg respectfully to communicate to you in this unofficial manner, deeming it required by humanity, no less than by our common desire to benefit the service.

We make the following extracts from the latest Northern files: A Phage speech in the united States Senate--Prentice's Comments Therson — the rebellion strong enough to be recognized. The following article from the Louisville "Journal," of the 18th inst., is worthy of an attentive perusal. There is one point in Senator Henderson's speech which evidently touched Prentice on the raw. It is really the shadow of the coming event which is cast before. Mr. Henderson says: "The border States have been ravaged, desolated, and now their population is flying to the wilderness territories of the West to escape the curses of what we call American civilization." Herein Prentice sees his own destiny: We have always believed, and we have repeatedly expressed the belief, that the Republican party, having swamped the Government in the consequences of the Republican policy, would ultimately conclude peace on the basis of a dissolution of the Union, if the people should not seaso

These examples are essential, as we all understand; but it occurred to me, General, that you would pardon me for thus calling your attention to the greater crime committed in New York, of kidnapping these men into positions where, to their ignorance, desertion must seem like a vindication of their own rights and liberty. Believe me to be, General, with the highest esteem, your obedient servant. J. J. Wistar. To Major Gen. John A Dix, New York city.

There seems to be little doubt that many, in fact I think I am justified in saying the most, of these unfortunate men were either deceived or kidnapped, or both, in the most scandalous and inhuman manner in New York city, where they were drugged and carried off to New Hampshire and Connecticut, mustered in and uniformed before their consciousness was fully restored. Even their bounty was obtained by parties who were instrumental in these nefarious transactions, and the poor wretches find themselves on returning to their senses mustered soldiers, without any pecuniary benefit.

ry and irresponsible subjugation. They propose to subjugate the Southern people not to the Constitution but to the will of the Republican party; and whenever they become satisfied that this is impracticable they will have no further use and no room for the Southern people in the Union. They will at once acknowledge their independence. Some of the Republican leaders have already reached or well-night reached this point, and are training accordingly. For example, Senator Henderson, of Missouri, one of the most moderate of the Republican leaders, delivered a speech the other day in his place in the Senate, in which he said: There are but two sides to the question. The one is Union without slavery; the other is the immediate and unconditional acknowledgment of the Southern Confederacy. * * * * Therefore, let the elements of opposition at once combine so that the friends of the Union may determine upon the best course to secure peace.--If those elements are too stron

A letter, dated at Grand Score, on the 14th inst., from a private in the Chicago Mercantile Battery, to the Chicago Times, ving an account of the part taken by that battery in the battle, confirms the dispatch in regard to the disaster to a portion of the Yankee forces comprising the Red river expedition. The letter says: Of our whole division, numbering three thousand men, but one thousand are left to tell the fearful odds against which they contioned as having been on the field on the 8th.
