f. Official copy — D. C. Wasser, A. A. G. A Proclamation of Rosecrans — the brutalities of the Federals. Gen. Rosecrans seems to be himself horrified at the brutalities of his own soldiers, and also to have an idea that he can conquer Tennessee with proclamations. He has just issued one of which the following is an extract: 1. Officers and soldiers of the army of the Cumberland: Some grave outrages and wrongs have been perpetrated on loyal citizens and harmless women, by latle of the locomotive screamed the signal of departure, and Buchanan was soon lost in the distance with the train.

Colonel Tevis has seen considerable service in the United States Mounted Rifles. He also served in Turkey five years as Lieutenant-Colonel of cavalry, and was decorated for gallant conduct on the field of battle three times by the Ottoman Government. During the last year he was Lieutenant-Colonel of the 4th Delaware Volunteers, and led several expeditions from Yorktown, Virginia, in one of which he pushed as far as Aylett's Station with two hundred infantry. He was selected by Gen. Schenck to organize the 3d Maryland regiment, and has been detached from his old regiment by the Secretary of War for this express purpose.

Gillmore's land batteries. Shortly afterwards the navy joined in the attack. Admiral Dahlgren went on board the monitor Weehawken, and the entire ironclad fleet, with seven wooden gunboats, furiously attacked Forts Wagner and Gregg, silencing both t, killing him instantly. Paymaster Woodbury, who was standing by his side, was also killed by the flying fragment. These were the only persons killed on our side during the six hours bombardment. The effect of the first day's fire from Gen. Gillmore's batteries on Sumter was very damaging.
