An Anglo-rebel. The following is an extract from a private letter from an officer in the confederate army: my Dearly beloved parents: I wrote you a letter some three weeks ago, but do not know whether you have received it.

I do so long for the time to come for me to go home; and I hope God will spare my life until that end is attained. army of Tennessee, Tullahoma, Tenn., Confederate States of America, April 5.
