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.

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
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.

Army of the PotomacFairfax Court House, Va., March 14, 1862. Soldiers of the Army of the Potomac. For a long time I have kept you inactive, but not without a purpose. You were to be disciplined, armed, and instructed. The formidable artillery you now have, had is be created. Other armies were to move and accomplish certain results. I have held you back that you might give the death-blow to the rebellion that has distracted our once happy country.

The army of the Potomac is now a real army, magnificent in material, admirable in discipline and instruction, excellently equipped and armed, your commanders
