tement 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,g of the pickets. About ten minutes afterwards the enemy planted their guns in sight, and within one hundred yards of Col. Jackson's headquarters, supported on either side by their cavalry, consisting of two battalions. It seems that neither Col. Pickett or Col, Jackson were aware of the presence of the enemy until their rifled twelve pounders were fired. The cavalry could not form, being at ones thrown into confusion. Col.

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.

They set fire to the buildings, which were entirely consumed.

vessel was sent on shore. The Herald correspondent accompanied the reconnoitering party. They visited nearly all the batteries in that vicinity, including one on a high hill, about half a mile back of Evansport, where they found the gun that Capt Eastman had attempted unsuccessfully to burst. It is a thirty two pounder. One of the trunnions was broken off, the carriage burnt, and the gun overthrown. This battery, aided by field pieces, was intended to cover the retreat of the rebels throughings, which were entirely consumed.

his mining comrade, the sobbing of a wife or sister over the loss of a loved companion — all contrasted strangely with the joyous and merry crowd that might have been witnessed in the same wrecked cars a few moments before. The bodies of ten dead soldiers were soon removed from the places where death had overtaken them. About thirty others were wounded. More prisoners. During the past week, (says the Tallahassee Floridian, of the 29th ult.,) five of Old Abe's men, belonging to Com. Dupont's fleet, have arrived in Tallahassee and taken lodgings in the Leon jail. These men were captured by some of Captain Pickett's men, and the other three by men from different companies, under the command of Lieut Strange, who, we regret to say, was mortally wounded. In the latter capture four white men of the enemy were killed, and a contraband captured. Eater News.

n 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 laborers and they were forced to go into the army for a support. By way of inducement, they were promised that their families should be cared for, but thus far the latter have received nothing except the small earnings forwarded by themselves. They were worked ha

bject is, of course, to cut off communication with Fort Macon. Col. White, the commandant of that post, has a good garrison, provisions for full ten months, plenty of ammunition and a stout heart. Fort Macon is not taken yet. Whenever a Yankee goes from Morehead, City to Beaufort or back again, the Colonel gives them a shot. We regret to learn that even in this beleaguered host some traitors were to be found, as there was at least one serpent in Eden.--Some few men, it is said, from Capt. Pool's company, contrived to desert to the enemy. It is not probable that they can communicate any information likely to be of value to the enemy, as of course the character of the Fort, an old government work, is as well known to the enemy as to ourselves.
