hard lessons of the spirit of the Southern people, from the mouths of girls and boys who speak for their fathers, and brothers who are absent in the wars, and for the race which is to succeed them. The following passage has some significance: "Colonel Bryan's and several other houses were searched yesterday for sick Texans.-- None were found, for on the day of the panic the well ones want all over town and took their sick comrades away; but some folks are afraid of Texas rangers and Morgan's men" These things corroborate, from the very scene, the reports that are now going North, that Gen. Boeil is deeply disappointed at the reception of the Union forces at Nashville. Be has been enable to discover any material out of which a Northern Government can be reconstructed, other then the military material which he carries with him; and it will take an indefinite amount of that to colonies and govern even a position of the great region he has commenced traversing.

y K, Capt. Carter, of Lasalle, went into action with sixty-two men and came out with nine; company H, Capt. Coates, of Pern, went in with fifty-one men and came out with ten. This will give an idea of the hard fighting and terrible loss sustained. Nashville.[from the New Orleans Picayune.] The Federals have not altogether suppressed communication from Nashville — at least we see that letters dated at that city still get through to New Orleans. We have had sight of one dated on the 9th, addressed by a lady in that city to a portion of her family here, which enable as to correct most favorably, and with entire authority the newspaper reports by the Federalists of the Unionist feeling which they found in that city. Written in the freedom of a correspondence entirely domestic, it relates incidents, of which we have obtained the liberty to mention several, at exhibiting the true dispositions of the people of Nashville, and the noble spirit of patriotism which animates her wome

From a special dispatch to the Memphis Appeal, dated Fort Smith, March 19th we copy the following: Mr. Kittle, Orderly Sergeant of Capt. Galloway's company, in McCulloch's brigade, who was taken prisoner on the last day of the fight at Elkhorn, made his escape, along with several others, twenty miles this side of Springfield, Mo., on the 17th instant, and arrived here to-day. From him I am able to give you the additional particulars of the fight: The enemy's loss, killed and wounded, was 2,600--not less than 800 killed. The 85th Illinois regiment, Col. Glaster, was badly cut up. They lost 880 men, killed and wounded. When Mr. Kittle passed through Cassville, there were 800 wounded at that place. They took 499 of our men prisoners, including commissioned officers, privates and citizens. The following is a port

They lost 880 men, killed and wounded. When Mr. Kittle passed through Cassville, there were 800 wounded at that place. They took 499 of our men prisoners, including commissioned officers, privates and citizens. The following is a portion of our officers taken prisoners: Colonel Mitchell, of Arkansas; Colonel Stone, of Mississippi; Captain Galloway, of Little Rock, Captain Hallowell, of Dardanelle, Arkansas; Captain Williams, of Arkansas; Lieutenant Mason, of Texas; Lieutenant Manual, Third Louisiana Regiment; Colonel Hebert, Major Tunnard, and Captain V. J. Lizini of the Third Louisiana. Hebert, Tunnard and Lizini have since been exchanged. The Federals are doubtless preparing to make another attack. A Lieutenant Colonel was the highest officer killed on the Federal side. Two compa
District. March 9, 1862. via Hog Eye, March 10. Fought the enemy, about twenty thousand strong on the 7th and 8th, at Elkhorn, Arkansas. Battle, first day, from 10 A. M. until after dark. Loss heavy on both sides. Generals McCulloch and McIntosh, and Col. Herbert, were killed. Gens. Price and Slack were wounded. Gen. Price flesh wound in the arm. The other severely if not mortally. Many officers were killed and wounded but as there is some doubt in regard to several, I cannot yet report their names. Slept on the battle-field first night, having driven the enemy from their position. The death of Generals McCulloch, McIntosh and Herbert early in the action, threw the troops on the right under the command in confusion. The enemy took a second and stronger position, and being without provisions and the right wing somewhat disorganized, I determined to give battle on the 8th on their fronts for the purpose of getting off the field without the danger of a panic, which I did wi
icago to the Northern Associated Press: There is no spark of the Union feeling here, and nobody pretends to deny the fact. The people of Clarksville glory in secession, and at the same time are trembling lost the town should be burned. There was a large quantity of rebel stores a portion of which was carried off and the remainder destroyed. The rebel leaders shipped a thousand negroes last week from Clarksville. Confederate prisoners at Chicago. The Chigago Times, of the 6th inst., states the number of Confederate captured at Fort Donelson, and now confined at Camp Douglas, Chicago, to be as follows: Floyd's Va. Artillery, 34 Gray's Virginia Artillery, 50 French's Va., Artillery, 43; Murray's Battery, 95; Cumberland's Battery, 55; 60th Tenn., 854; 20th Miss., 427; 27th Ala., 180; 2d Tenn. 627; 10th Tenn., 608; 42d Tenn., 424; 40th Tenn., 249, 49th Tenn., 450; 26th Tenn., 65, 2d Ky., 136; 2d Ala., 84, 50th Va., 10; 51st Tenn., 17--total 5,179. The Times says the num
ll use so well. I shall demand of you great and heroic exertion, rapid and long marches, desperate combats and privations. Perhaps we will share all these together; and when this sad war is over, we will all return to our homes and feel that we can ask no higher honor than the proud consciousness that we belonged to the Army of the Potomac. George B. McClellan,Major General Commanding. The battle of Elkhorn--Gen. Van-Dorn's official report. The Fort Smith Bulletin, of the 11th inst., contains the following official telegraphic report of the battle of Elkhorn, sent to Gen. A. S. Johnston and the War Department at Richmond: Headq'rs. Trans Mississippi District. March 9, 1862. via Hog Eye, March 10. Fought the enemy, about twenty thousand strong on the 7th and 8th, at Elkhorn, Arkansas. Battle, first day, from 10 A. M. until after dark. Loss heavy on both sides. Generals McCulloch and McIntosh, and Col. Herbert, were killed. Gens. Price and Slack were wo
of truce to bury our dead.--They were filed upon by the enemy. Our total killed was 96. We brought all our wounded away with us when we fell back. Federal loss at Fort Donelson. The Nashville Times (Federal) says: The heaviest loss to any one of the Federal regiments at Fort Donelson, was the 11th Illinois, which went into the fight with five hundred men and officers, and came out with one hundred and seventy. Two companies in this regiment, company K, Capt. Carter, of Lasalle, went into action with sixty-two men and came out with nine; company H, Capt. Coates, of Pern, went in with fifty-one men and came out with ten. This will give an idea of the hard fighting and terrible loss sustained.

s. I am now encamped with my whole army fourteen miles west of Fayetteville, having gone entirely around the enemy. I am separated from my train, but think it is safe on the Elm Spring road to the Boston mountains. The reason why I determined to give battle at once upon my arrival to assume command of the army, I will give in my report at an early day. Earl Van-Dorn,Major-General Commanding. Later particulars.
