d on their return to Hickman, when he made good his escape. Later from Nashville. The Memphis Appeal, of the 3d, says: We learn from parties who left Nashville as late as Saturday, that the gunboat and transports at that place had found it necessary to leave on account of the low stage of water. The army at Columbia had crossed Duck river, and had reached Mount Pleasant on Monday, on the road leading towards Savannah, where they would probably arrive today or to-morrow. McCook and Nelson were in command of the advance. Gen Buell was bringing up the rear, and had arrived at Columbia. From Island 10--official. The following information was communicated by telegraph to the commandant at Memphis, under date of April 1st, 1862: The bombardment of Madrid Bend and Island 10 commenced on the 15th instant, and continued constantly night and day. The enemy has fired several thousand thirteen-inch and rifle shells. On the 17th a general attack with five gunb

ark, in addition to many other officers, are numbered with our gallant dead. Among the wounded on the other side, was General. Curtis himself, who received a slight wound. Gen. Seigle was not wounded, as at first reported. Neither Price, Van Dorn, nor the army, have supposed that they were defeated. On the contrary, the result of the battle is equivalent to a victory for the Confederates. The enemy, though far out-numbering us, and well provided with arms and ammunition, has been so crippled that he will be unable to attack us without large reinforcements, whereas Price and Van Dorn can march when and where they please. At last accounts they were at Van Buren, recruiting and getting ready for another forward movement. If the President would give Gen. Price a sufficient force, and place him in command of all our troops west of the Mississippi river, there would not be an enemy left south of the Missouri by the 4th day of July. Changing front. The Yankee papers,

interesting: An approaching this place I was not so much impressed by the prodigious display of command military paraphernalia, for which I had been prepared by accounts on the road, as I was by the order and system that prevail, and the unexampled spectacle of so vast a collection of Southern soldiery without a single case of drunkenness or a symptom of the presence of that great bane of our country — whiskey. This novel exhibition is time to the admirable discipline introduced by Gen. Bragg and rigidly enforced by Brig. Gen. Gladden, who is commandant at this post. These officers deserve the eternal gratitude of the South for this great reform. Not a drop of intoxicating liquor is permitted to be sold anywhere on this line. If any is brought here, it is seized and emptied in the road. The strictest discipline is everywhere enforced, and, as a consequence, we have an army here that is an honor to the South, worthy of our cause, and which can never be beaten. Frightfu

onel F. endeavored to rally the fleeing men, but, finding it useless, he ordered them to follow him into the woods and rally there; but the rout continued in the most perfect disorder, when Colonel P. left. It was stated that the reason why the messengers did not return sooner was, that the cavalry ran at full speed through the camp of the 21st regiment, and kept them from delivering their messages. A part of the regiment was pursued by the enemy about three miles. They rallied at Crockett's station, however, and took a train to Humboldt. The remainder reached the latter place by the Middleburg and Trenton road. Our loss was about fifty men captured, two killed, and three wounded. We saved all our arms, but lost everything else, baggage, tents, and stores — which latter were estimated to be worth about six thousand dollars. Capt Whitemore was in town when the attack was made, dressed in citizen's clothes, and witnessed the movements of the enemy. After rifling and

A correspondent writes to the Savannah Republican on late direct information: Price's veterans acquitted themselves with the greatest possible credit; and McCulloch's followers, up to the unfortunate hour when he and McIntosh fell, fought with the most determined resolution. Col. Rives, of the Missouri Confederates, and Capt. Churchill Clark, in addition to many other officers, are numbered with our gallant dead. Among the wounded on the other side, was General. Curtis himself, who received a slight wound. Gen. Seigle was not wounded, as at first reported. Neither Price, Van Dorn, nor the army, have supposed that they were defeated.

Miscellaneous News. We make up the following summary from late papers received yesterday: Capture of Lincolnites. Thirteen Lincoln soldiers, captured last week off Wilmington Island, by our pickets under command of Captain Crawford, have arrived in Savannah, Georgia. They belonged to the 46th New York regiment, and are all Germans but one. It appears that a number of the enemy, said to be between sixty and seventy men, were landed on Wilmington Island. Our men waited their approach, and when within range opened fire on them. One German was killed, another mortally wounded, and thirteen were captured, as above stated. The lieutenants and the remainder of the men effected their escape. On our side, but one man was wounded — Isaac Newton Brown of the 18th Georgia regiment--supposed mortally. The Republican obtains from prisoners the following: They deny that they were drafted, and say they volunteered from sheer necessity. They are nearly all mechanics and lab

General Hooker has been awarded the credit of removing the guns from the rebel batteries, as well as for having effected the first landing at these strongholds. The guns were removed by Lieut. Commanding Eastman, of the Yankee, on whom, as a seaman, the task properly devolved. The Stampede at Union city, Tenn. The Memphis Appeal has the following statement from Sergeant Moore, of the 21st Regiment Tennessee Volunteers. On sunday afternoon, while Cols. Pickett and Jackson--whose commands were distinct — were taking a ride, it was a greed that Col. J. would picket on the road leading to Hickman, which. however, was neglected, whether by Col. Jackson or his officers is not known. Neither was that road scouted on sunday, or that night or the next morning. The consequence was that on Monday morning the enemy came in on the Richman road, and not being fired

The result of the bombardment, up to the 1st inst., is on our side one man killed, none seriously wounded, and no damage to batteries. The enemy had one gunboat disabled, and another reported sunk.

ndred Yankees, with two pieces of artillery, effected a landing at Port Royal Ferry on Tuesday morning, General Pemberton, to whom our pickets reported that the enemy were landing in force, immediately ordered his troops in position to attack. Col. Jones's regiment, in advance of our troops, soon came in sight of the enemy, when they retired under cover of their gunboats, without an exchange of shot on either side. Before the coming up of Col. Jones's regiment, the enemy destroyed the dwellingCol. Jones's regiment, the enemy destroyed the dwelling of Mr. Henry Stuart, at Page's Point. The gentleman also reports that three negroes, the property of Mr. P. Given, had arrived at our camps, having succeeded in making their escape from Port Royal. These fellows report that the negroes on the islands had been put to work under Yankee overseers, and were planting corn and would soon commence the planting of cotton; that they were worked from sunrise to sunset, and were not allowed the usual privilege of a "task," as they were under their l
