WAR IIEWS. Address or General McClellan to Ills Sol* dlers—The Time for Action has Arrived. Headquarters of the Armt of the Potomac, \ Fairfax Court FTouss. Va„ March 14,1862. j Soldiers of the Army of tht Potomac: For a long time 1 have kept you Inactive, but not with out a porpoee. Ton were to be disciplined, armed, and instructed. The formidable artillery yon now have had to be created. Other armies were to'move and accomplish ■certain results. I held yoa back that yon might give the death blow to the rebellion that has distracted onr once happy country. The patience yoa have shown, and your co* fidence in your general, are worth a dozen victories. These preliminary resnltsare now accomplished. I feel that the patient labors of many months have produced tbeir fruit. The army of the Potomac is now a real army —magnificent in material, admirable in discipline and in strnction, excellently equipped and armed. Tour com manders are all that I could wish. Tbe moment for action has arrived, and I know that I can trust in yon to save (oar country. As I ride throogh yoar ranks 1 see in your faces the sure presage of victory. I feel that yon will do whatever I ask of you. The period of inaction has passed. I will bringyou face to face with the rebels, and only pray that God may defend tbe right. In whatever direction you may move, however strange my actions may appear to you, ever bear in mind that my e . fate is linked with yonrs, and that all I do is to bring yon where I know you wish to be—on tho decisive battle field. It is my bnsiness ta place yoo there. I am to watch over you as a parent over his children, and yon know that your general loves you from the depths of his heart. It shall be my care, as it has ever been, to gain success with the least possible loss; but I know that if it is neces sary you will willingly follow mo to your graves for the righteous cause. God smiles npon us ! Victory attends us yet! I would not have you think that onr aim is to ho attained without a manly struggle. I will not disguise it from yon. You have brave foes to encounter—foemen well worthy of the steel that you will use so well. I shall demand of yon great, heroic exertions; rapid and long marches; desperate combats; 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 tbe proud consciousness that we belonged to tbe ► Army of the Potomac. Georgs B. McClellan, Major General Commanding. Tike Fight In Hampton Roads—Full De tails of the Affair—Tbe Merrlmac still at Norfolk—statement of tbe Pilot of the C umberland-Officlal Report of Capt. Marston. From the N. Y. World cf Tuesday last.J Mr. A. B. Smith, pilot on board tho United States steam er Cumberland at the time of her battle with the iron plated steamer Merrimac, arrived in this city late last evening, and wo obtained from him the following authen tic statement of tho great naval battle of last Saturday ,’l and Sunday in Hampton Roads: STATEMENT OF THE PILOT. On Saturday morning, tbe United States steamer Cum berland laid off in the roads at Newport News, about three hundred yards from the shore, tbe Congress being two hundred yards south of us. The morning was mild and pleasant, and the day opened without any noteworthy incident. About eleven o'clock, a dark-gloomy object was descried coming round Craney Island through Norfolk channel, and proceeding straight in our direction. It was instantly recognized as tbe Mertimac. We had boon on tbe lookout for her for s- ino time, aod were as well pre pared theu as we could have been at any other time, or as we have beou during the last six months. As she came ploughing through the watertight onwards toward our port bow, bli6 looked like a huge half-sub merged crocodile. Her sides seemed of solid iron, except where the guns pointed trom the narrow points, and rose slantingly lrom the water like the roof of a house or the urched buck of a tortoise. Probably the extreme height of the apex from tho water’* edge, perpendicularly, was teu feet. At her prow I could see the Iron ram projecting, straight forwards, somewhat above the water’B edge, and apparently a ma«S of iron. Small boats were Blung or fastened to her sides, aod the rebel flag floated from one staff, while a pennant was fixed to another at the stern.— There was a smoke stack or pipe near her middle, and she Was probably a propellor, no sidewheels or machinery being Visible. She is probably covered with railroad iron. Immediately tin the appearing of tho Merrlmac the com mand was given to make ready for instant action. All hands were ordered to their places, and tbe Cumberland was sprung across tbe channel, so that her broadside would hear on the Merrlmac. The armament we could bring to bear on the Merrimac was about eleven nine and ten-inch Dahlgrcen guiiß and two pivot guns of the same make.— The gunners were,at their p ista, and v-o waited eagorly for her approach within ranges. She came up at the rate of four or five knots per hour. When the Merrimac arrived within about a milo we opened on her with our pivot guns, and as soon as we could bear upon ber, our whole broadside commenced. — Still she caiue on, tbe balls bouncing from her mailed sides like India rubber, apparently making not tbe least impression, except to cut off her ting staff, and thus bring down the confederate colors. None of her crew ventured at that time on her outside to replace them, and she fought thenceforward with only her pennant flying. She np priaied to obey her helm and be Tery readily handled, making all her movements and evolutions with apparent facility and readiness. Wo had probably fired six or eight broadsides when a shot was received from one of her guns which killed five of our marines. It was impossible for our vepsr.j to get out of her way, and the Merrimac soon crashed her iron horn or ram into the Cumberland, just starboard tho mnin chains, under the bluff of the port bow, knocking a hole in tho side, near the water line, an large as the head of a hogshead, aud driving the vessel back upon her at chore with great force. The water cam'e rushing into the hold. Tho Merrimac then backed out and discharged her guns ar uk, the shot passing tnrough the main bay and killing five sick men. Tbe water w 9 all the while rushing in the Lmle made by she ram, so that in five minutes it was up to the skk bay on the berth deck. In the meantime her broadsides swept onr men away killed and maimed, and also tet our vessel ou fire in tho forward part. Tho file wa3 extinguished. I cannot toll how many were wounded. The sick bay, b-rth deck oud gun deck were almost literally covered with men killed and wounded, but the surviving ones still fought well, and • every one, offn t-rs ami men, displayed tho utmost heroism. The fight lasted about three-fourths of an hour, the Cum kjrluud tiring rapidly and all tho time, the wat-r pouring in the hold, and hy and by the ports, as her bow kept sink ing deeper and deeper. Near the middle of the fight, whon the berth deck of tbe Cumberland had sunk below water, one of the crew of the Men i mac came ent of a port to the outside of her iron-plated roof, and a ball from one of our guns instantly cut him In two. That was tbe last «Dd ouly rebel that ventured within sight, the rest re maiuiug iu their a>ife, iron-walled iuclosure. We fired constantly, and the Merrimac occasionally, but every shot told upon our wooden vessel and brave crew. Her guns being without the least elevation, pointed straight nt us along tho surface of tho water, and her nearness, she being much of the time within three hundred yards, made it au easy matter to send each bull to its exact mark. Probably her guns would be useless at a considerable distance, as it appears impossible to elevate them. Finally, after about three-fonrtho of an lvurof the most severe fighting, our vessel sank, the stars and stripes still waving. Tbe flag was finally submerged, but atter the hull grounded on the sands fifty-four feet below tho surface of the water, our pennant was still flying from the topmast above the waves. NoDe of our ineu were captured, but many were drowned as the vessel went down. We bad about four hundred on board, and I suppose from one hundred aod fifty to two hundred were killed during the engagement and drowned at the sinkiug. lieutenant George V. Maurice was in • command of the Tcssel. Captain Radford being absent on the Roanoke, at a court of inquiry, and though he hurried back to reach his vessel, he could not arrive till after she -had sunk. Very few of our men swam ashore, most of those who were rescued from the water being saved by small boats. Tho Merrimac seemed to be uninjured, al though her small boats and flagstaff was shot away in tho commencement of the action. ENGAGEMENT WITH THS CONGRESS. The Merrimac then turned her attention to the Congress, 'which lay probably two hundred yards to the ejuth of where the Cumberland was. The Merrimac came up un der her stem, and her crew fired their pistols into the ports .of tho Congress as she approached. I saw her tiro on the Congress. The sailors of that vessel say that the Merrimac struck her; but of this lam not sufo. The Congress had a good crew of fifty men from the Cumberland previously taken on board, fifry Irnm tbe Minnesota, fifty of the Na yal Brigade, fifry from the Ko.-.nuke, and some others.— Lieutenant Joseph Smith, who was in commaud, was killed by a shot.* A great many of tho Naval Brigade were also killed. Tho entire command seemed to have acted bravely during tho ongagemeut, which probably lasted not over half an hour, when the white flag was run up. During the Dight some sailors and men of the Congress returned and set fire to her. aud sin* blew up about twelve o’clock. Neither the shot of the CamberUud nor Congress appeared to have any effect on the Merrimac, bounding off harm lessly, with a loud ringing snood from tbe iron plates. The engagement with the Minnesota resulted In the killing of four men on the latter vessel, which was aground. The Merrimac did not seem to like to go near her, perhaps on account of her large armament of heavy gnns, but more probably because she was afraid of also getting ogrouud. ths water being quite shallow in that neighborhood. The Minnesota is not much injured. She was off, and steaming down about 6 o’clock on Sunday night. EIGHT DETWEEN THE MONITOR AND MERRIMAC. The Monitor came in Saturday night, and proceeded up past Ibe Minnesota. The rebel steamers Jamestown aud Yorktown were not iron-plated, or, at any rato, only par tially so. They came down In tbe daylight, making for the Minnesota, hut to their surprise fouud the Monitor ready to receive thorn. On Sunday morning the Monitor moved close up to the Merrimac, and, side by side, engaged her for four hours aud twenty minutes. Once the Morri _ mac clashed her iron prow pquArely against the Monitor, but did not injure that vessel in the least. The Monitor in turn determined to try her force in a similar operation, but in some unaccountable manner the wheel or other steering apparatus became entangled, it is said, and the Monitor rushed by, just missing hor aim. Captain Wor don is confident that lie put three shot through the hull of his antagonist—probably through the ports. The Mon itor fired 173 pound cast iron shot. ~ The wrought iron shot were not used, because their great weight and pecniiar construction render the guns much more liable to burst. The Merrimac fired about forty shots ou the Monitor, which replied rapidly as possible, but, so fur as it is known, /neither vessel is damaged. Those on board the Monitor Bay the balls rattled and rang upon both vessels aud seem ed to bound off harmless. The Merrimac Is probably not injured, at least more than the starting of a plate or ho of her iren covering, and her machinery being uninjured, she ifl probably fit to come out again. It is impossible to keep the Merrimac from coming out again. She can sail three knots an hour fader than the Monitor. From her evolutions I should judge she can go at the rate of eight or nine knots per hour. It is impossible to board the Merrimac. Should she come out again sho will be obliged to pass within range of tbe Uniou gun at the ltip Kup B , and a shot from it might perhaps crush her sides, but it is very difficult to manage so heavy a piece of artillery, and the Union gun, io all probability, might be fired fifty times without touching her. I do not think the Merrimac is calculated to carry much coal, and that might have beeu a reason for her retiring from the contest. The Monitor perhaps might followup the rebel steamers and disable them, but if she gets among the rebel batteries a heavy fire might be concentrated on bur from different points, and she be thns iuj ured. or possibly she might be grappled to and towed ashore. These and other reasons mav suffice to show why tho Monitor did not follow among the bat teries of Craney Island and Norfolk. General Wool, I un derstand, has ordered all the women and childreu away from Fortress Monroe, in anticipation of the Mcrrimac’s reappearance. During all Sunday morning, while tho battle was raging between the two Iron clad vessels, the high cliffs at New port News and vicinity were crowded with spectators earnestly watching tbe progress of the fight. ’ Official Report of fll&ratou. U. S. Steamer lloanoke, ) Hampton Roads, March 9 r To Hon. Gideon Welles, Secretary of the Navy: 1 Sir: I have tbe honor to inform yon that yesterday, at one o’clock, one of the lookout vessels reported, by signals that the enemy was coming out. 1 immediately ordered the Minnesota to get under way, and, as soon as tho two tugs appointed to tow this ship came alongside, I slipped our cable. The Merrimac was soon discovered passing out by Sew&ll’s Point, standing op towards Newport News, accompanied by several small gunboats. Every exertion was made by us to get all the speed on the Roanoke that the two togs were capable of giving her; but, in conse quence of our bad steerage, we did not get ahead as rapidly ** wThe Mcrr,m &e went up and immediately attacked the Congress and Cumberland, but particularly the letter ship, which was bid from us b , the when ahont seven or eight miles from Portress Monroe, the Min nesota grounded. Wo continued to stand on rod when we came in sight of the Cumberland wo row that she had Veereened over, apparently full of water. enemy who had been joined by two or three steamers from James river, now devoted themselves exclusively to lhefW™.V bat she being aground could bring but five gunxtoES on them, and at ten minutes before 4 o’clock we had ti, mortification of seeing her haul down her fieg. I ned to stand on until we found ourselves in three and a half fathoms or water, and was on the ground astern -Finding that wecould go no further, lordered oneof the tug to tow us round, and as soon as the Roanoke’s head was Jointed down the bay, and I fennd sho was afloat again I Irected the tngs to go to the asaißtance of the Minnesota, under the hope that with the assistance of the two othera which had accompanied her, they would be able to get her oS, but up to tho time that I now write, have not succeeded in doing ao. At 6 o’clock the. frigate St. Lawrence, in tow of the Cambridge, passed us, and not long after ehe also grounded; but by the aid of the Cambridge she was got afloat again; and, being unable to render any assistance to the Minnesota, came down the harbor. In passing tbe batteries at Bewail’* Point, both going and returning, the rebels opened fire on ns, which was returned from our pivot guns; bnt the range was too great for them, while the enemy's shot fell Car beyond us. One shot went through onr foresails cutting away two of our shrouds, and several shell burst oTtr and near tbe ship, scattering their frag ments on the deck. Between 7 and 8 o’clock we discovered that tbe rebels had set fire to the Congress, and she con tinued to barn till 1 o’clock, when she blew up. This was a melancholy satisfaction to me, for as she had fallen into the hands of the enemy, It was far better to hive her de stroyed than that she should be employe 1 aga nst us at some fntnre day. It was the impression of some of my officers that the rebels hoisted the French flag, bat I heard that tho Monitor had arrived, and soon after Lieutenant-Com manding Wcrden.came on board, and I immediately order ed him to go up,' to the Minnesota, hoping she would be able to keep off an attack on the Minnesota till we had got her afloat again. This morning the Merrimac renewed the attack cm the Minnesota, bnt she found—no doubt, greatly to her surprise—a new opponent In the Monitor. The contest has been going on during most of tbe day between these two armored vessels, and most beautifully has the little Monitor sustained herself, showing herself capable of great endurance- I have not received any official ao counts of the loss of the Congress and Cumberland, but no doubt shall do so. when it will be transmitted to yon. I should do injustice to this military department did I not inform you that every assistance was freely tendered to ns; sending five of tbeir tags to the relief of the Min nesota, and offering all the aid In their power. I would also beg leave to say that Capt. Poor, of the Ordnance De partment, kindly, volunteered to do doty temporarily on board this ship, and from whom I have received much as sistance. I am, very respectfnlly, Your obedient servant, JOHN MABSTON, Captain and Senior Officer. Another Acoount of the Late Naval Bat* tie—A Scene of Terror. Tbe following letter from Dr. Sbippen, who was on board the frigate Congress, in Hampton Roads, in the recent ter rible battle, will be foubd to possess much interest: • “•There comes the Merrimac at last.’ I was reading a lately received newspaper with much Interest, and so I replied, ‘Don’t Interrupt me, lam busy.’ It’s no joke,’ be answered, ‘she is coming down this time.’ I saw the speaker take bis sword and revolver and burry on deck.— So tbe thing seemed serious and. I followed. Sure enough, there was tbe strange looking hull slowly steaming down tbe river; bnt she turned and Beemed going back, as if after a trial trip, and we began to think it was a false alarm that had stirred ns up. Bat she soon turned again and began to approach us (the Congress) slowly. v We bent to quarters at once, and as soon as she got within range opened fire on her. We might as well have fired at a mov ing iceberg. The shots glanced off her iron sheathing liko hail stones off a tin roof. Sbe gradually approached us and passed os by, delivering her fire as sho went, and with awful effect. “Sbe then steamed np ahead of the Cumberland, turned round deliberately, and ran into her near tbe bow, ripping an enormous rent in ber side, aud hung on by ber own sharp prow, while she fired right into the fractured chasm. Then sbe backed out and repeated her tremendous on slaught aud fierce fire, and the fate of the Cumberland was settled. She bad fought bravely, poaring in her tremen dous broadsides, bat with apparently tbe same want of effect which had attended onr discharge of shot. Now sbe settled and keeled over aod went down, with most of her wounded, the living sailors aud those not wounded beyond the ability of motion alone gettiug over into her boats with the officers and escaping to tbe shore, while some swam from the ship and so escaped to land. “ Having finished with the Cumberland, this marine monster came back to ua. She laid off onr port bow, forg ing slowly ahead, then backing, so as to keep her desired and selected position, and opened upon us an awful fire! The first shell burst inside our ship and killed every man at gun No. 7. Shell after shod, aod sometimes two at a time, burst among us. Tbe ship was soon a mere slaughter house. The surgeon began his work, and attempted an amputation—a huge fragment of wood fell on the breast of the subject, and crushed him Instantly. Operations were now out of the question. The wounded were in crowds, horribly cat up. Tho slightest wound noticed was a hand shot off. Whole quarters of the human frame ware torn away from some bodies—a head, a right shoulder, aud entire legs and arms from others. The ship, too, was on fire. Tbe shells had kiodled ber woodwork in several places. “Nearly all the guns were dismounted—the bulkheads blown to pieces—rammers aud handspikes shivered—the powder boys all killed. The inside of the ship looked like tho Inside of a burnt and sacked house. Everything was in fragments, black or red—burnt or bloody. ‘•The horrible scene lasted for about half an hour. We then struck. A rebel tug seat a boat to us and soon came alongside herself. Our groat concern was for the wounded. We were told to come ourselves and bring others aboard, as prisoners. We begged for a little time to eet the wound ed ones, but we were told to ‘harry.’ ‘We can’t hurry mon badly hurt.’ ‘But you must; lam going to burn tho ship, aod that d—d quick,’ said the officer in com mand. But he was mistaken. He did not burn her. At this momeot au Indiana regiment on shorcopened a heavy fire on the tag from rifles and a howitzer. I 6aw one rebel officer fall under it. Tbe tug ftund it too hot for her, and she backed out. Where sbe went I did not see. “ In tbe meantime our own small boats and some from the Cnmbarland ran alongside, and we bogan getting all tbe wounded Into them and pushed off for laud. Ido not think one wounded man was left on shipboard. Twenty seven came In tho small boats. Probably eighty wore left dead on the decks and in the cock-pit. The ship was al ready on fire, as before stated, and she burned and blew up during tbe night.” The War In New Mexico—Details of the Fort Craig Hattie—Heroic Death of Captain McCray. The Jiepublican has advices from Albuquerque, New Mexico, February 23, which state that the Texas rebel troops have made various significant movements in the vicinity of Fort Craig. On the 18th they advanced a column of infantry, 1,000 strong, in line of battle ia front of the fort, and also moved a column of cavalry. 800 strong, to the west of our defences. They advance! within a mile and a half nf tho works, nod halting, with the rebel lltg floating in the breeze, remained some time and then commenced a retrograde movement During the time of the advance Col. Canby prudently con coaled the greater part of his forces in tho rear nf tho fort. When tho enemy commenced rotreatieg, and the iutantry was separated from the cavalry, Col. Canby ordered Major Duncan ta charge the cavalry of the enemy with a squad ron of dragoons and mounted men, which they did iu gal lant style, tho enemy retreating before them until they arrived at a deep ravine. The Texan iufautry, in the meantime, advanced to tho relief of tbe cavalry, aud a skirmish took place at the ra vine. Major Duncan, late in tbe evening, was recalled, and the Texans continued to fall back. lie report*d that tbe Texans had eight pieces of artillery In a battery, masked in tho ravine, but-a short distance below where tho skirmish took place. On tho 19th and 20th the Texans crossed to the east bank of tho Rio Grande, in order, it ia supposed, to take posses sion of the heights opposite Fort Craig. Colonel Canby crossed and pursued thorn fu force, when tho Texans ou the heights fired some fifty cannon shots, without damage to our forces. Col. CaDby fired but two shots, deeming it imprudent to waste his ammunition. On the morning of the 21st, two hundrod Toxan mules were captured, with their wagon-master. The Texans on the Highlands Are destitute of water. Col. Canby has the pass to the water guarded by a battery and a 6trong force, and all the other outlets are guarded. The Texans must either fight desperately for water or surrender. When the express closed, on tho morning of tbe 21st ult.. the booming of cannon could be heard iu the direction of Valverde, announcing that the battle had begun. An 6xpreßS has jnat arrived from Fort Craig, with nows of h serious conflict between our forces and the IVxaus, which lasted from 9 o’clock A. M on the 21st until sun down of the same lay. The fight commenced Id the morning between a portion of our trups, under Col. Roberts, and the ooemy across the Rio Grande, with varied success, UDtil 1 or 2 o’clock, when Col. Can by crossed tho river in force, with a battery of six pieces, under Capt. McCray, of the cavalry, but detailed in command of the battery, and, also, a small battery of two howitzers. The enemy aie supposed to have had seven or eight pieces. The battle commenced by the artillery, and skirmishing soon became genotal. Towards evening most of the enemy’s guns were silenced. They, however, made a desperate charge on the howitzer battery, bnt were re pulsed with ereat loss. Captaiu McCray’s battery was defended by Captain Plimpton’s company of lluited States iufantry and a por tion of Colonel Pinos’ Regiment of Now Mexican volun teers. The Texaus charged desperately and furiously with picked men, about 600 strong. They were armed with carbines and revolvers and loug seven-pound bowie knives. After discharging their carbines at close distance, thoy drew their revolvers and reached the battery In a storm of grape and canister. The New Mexicans of Pinos’ Regiment were panic stricken, and ingloriously fled. Captain Plimp ton add the infantry stood their ground, and fought nobly till more than one half were numbered with the dead. With his artillerymen cut down, his support separated, killed, wounded, and flying from the field. Captain McCray sat down calmly and qnietly on one of his guns, and, with revolver in hand, refusing, to fly or desert his post, he fought to tho last, and gloriously died like & hero, the last man by his gun. The Texans suffered terribly in this charge. Many of our officers distinguished themselves ou this day. Major Donaldson, who was the chief aid of Colonel Canby. acted bravely, aud was conspicuous In every part of the field.— His horse was wounded in several places, but the Major, was not injured. Kit Carson, in command of a regiment of volunteers who were deployed as skirmishers, did good service during tbe action, and behaved well. "We have, however, to name the loss of Lleuls. Michler and Stone, who, like Capt. McCray, nobly and bravely maintained the honor of onr flag to the last, and gloriously died the death of patriots. Many other officers are wounded. Our loss is about 200 killed and wounded ; that of the ene my is believed to be much greater. The greatest confi dence is reposed in Col. Canby, aud if the volunteers will do their duty, the Texans will be driven ingloriously from the country. Official Report of the Great Victory In Arkansas. St. Louis. March 11. The following is the official report of Goa. Curtis, of the battle of Pea Ridge, in the mountains of Arkansas. Headquarters op the Armt op the 1 Southwest, Pea Ridge, Ark., March 9. r General : On Thursday, the 6th inst, the enemy com menced an attack on my right, assailing and following the rearguard of the detachments under Gen. Sigel, to my main lines on Sugar Creek Hollow, bnt ceased firing when he met my reinforcements, about 4 o’clock, P. M. During the night I became convinced that ho bad moved ou so as to attack my right or rear. Therefore, early on the 7th, I ordered a change of front to the ridge on my right, which, thus becoming my left, still rested on Sugar- Creek Hollow. This brought my line across Pea Ridge, with my new right resting on the head of Cross Timber Hollow, which is the head of Big Sngar Creek. I also ordered an advance of cavalry and light artillery, under Cclonel Osterhaus, with orders to attack and break what we supposed would be the reinforced line of the enemy. This movement was in progress when the enemy, at il o’clock, A. M , commenced an attack on my right. Tbe tight continned warmly at these points during the ? ay A*, be enem y havinc gained the point held in command by Colonel Carr, at Cross Timber Hollow ; bnt were entire ly repulsed, with the fall of the rebel commander McCul loch. in the centre, by the forces under Colonel Jeff C. Davie, of Missouri. Tbe plan of attack ou the centre was gallantly carried forward by Colonel Osterhaus. who was immediately sus tained and superseded by Colonel Davis’ entire division, supported also by General Sieel’s command: which had remained ti I near the close of tbe day, on the left. Colonel Carr’s division held the right under a galling and eon tinuons fire all day. In the evening, tbe firing having entirely ceased in the centre, and the right being now on the left, I reinforced the right by a portion of the second division under Gen. Asboth. Before the day closed I was convinced that the enemy had concentrated bis main force on the right* therefore I commenced another change of front forward' so rs to face the enemy where he had deployed on my right flank in stiong position. The change had been partially effected, bnt was fully in progress, when, at sunrise ou tho -Bth, my right and centre renewed firing, which was im mediately answered by the enemy, with renewed energy, along the whole extent of his line. My left, UDder General Sigel, moved close to the hills occupied by tbe enemy, driving him from the heights and advancing steadily toward the head of the Hollows. I immediately ordered the centre and right wing forward, tho right wing turning the left of the enemy, and cross flnng in his centre.

The whole rebel fortifications at Manassas were abandon ed and everything possible burned. Our troops occupy' the place. Before dark last night. Col. Averill, of the Third Penn sylvania Cavalry, with a large body of cavalry, entered the far famed rebel works at Manassas Junction, and bivouacked for the night amidst the ruins of the rebel stronghold, with the Btars and Stripes glittering in the brilliant moonlight. In their march from Centreville no signs of tbe rebels were discovered. The fields that were a few months ago ensanguined with tbe blood of contending armies and resonant with tbe sonod of booming eanDon and rolling mosketry, tbe shoots of marshalled hosts and the groans of the dying, were silent and deserted. The fortifications which bo latelv bristled with the threatening artillery and gleaming bayonets of the rebel force were bare and black ened. The retreating rebels had swept it with the besom of destruction that had everywhere marked tbeir de parture. They were all gone—horse, foot and dragoons. They had slit their tents with their swords, and set fire to all that was infiamable. Nothing was left except tbe bars and blackened walls and tbe smouldering ashes of bonfires made of their tents, baggage, equipments and stores, for whleh they could find no transportation. The evacuation of Manassas was evidently less hurried than that of the batteries on the Potomac. It had been done deliberately, and manifestly with no expectation of ever returning. The absence of tbe enemy robbed the occupation of those works by the Union forces of all romance and startling sensation. Tbe fact that tbe enemy was gone was ascer tained, and that was all. Tbe works were found In better condition than was expected, showing that more labor had been expended upon them than on any of the rebel fortifi cations that have been erected by them, except the forts at Port Royal and Fort Douelson. Tbe intelligence gathered at Manassas and in the neigh borhood tends to show that the whole rebel army has retired southward, as they themselves reported, to Gordonsville. It is not credited that they will attempt to make a stand at that point, as the country is all open and level, and un promising for defensive warfare. The opinion it gaining ground that Gordonsville was simply the rendezvous for what was lately the rebel army of the Potomac, as It is the junction of tbe Orange and Alexandria with the Virginia Central Railroad. The only point at which they can, with any sort of con fidence, attempt to make a stand at, Is near the junction of the Frederick and Potomac with the Central Virginia railroad, In which neighborhood the North Anna and Bouth Anna rivers unite and form the Pamankey river, about twenty miles north of Richmond. At this point the country is moch broken and admirably fitted for defence. It is reported that in their retreat the rebels have destroyed tbe railroad bridge across the north fork of the Rappahannock. In their haste they have left behind straggling parties of soldiers, who seem to be very glad to be made prisoners. Wherever they have gone it is evident that their army is completely demoralized and utterly unfit for service. The moral effect of the retreat from Manassas to Richmond will be tbe same throughout tbe South as it is iu the part of Virginia just evacuated, where the impression prevails that the Southern confederacy has collapsed, and many people thank God for it. ' The following de.*patch has jnst been received from a correspondent at Fairfax Court House: Several officers, who went several miles beyond Manassas to-day, returned to this place this evening. Centreville, which they took on the route, they found as described* in despatches published in the papers yesterday. Tbe forts are all ab&udoned; but log huts, hundreds in number, and ample to accommodate folly thirty thousand troops, still remain. Heaps of dead horses cover the fields in tbe vicinity. The log huts are strewn all along between Centreville and Manassas. The railroad track is undisturbed, except the bridges. The stone bridge across Bull Run, on the Warrenton turn pike, is blown up, as also the bridge across Cab Run, be tween Centreville and Manassas. The War In Tennessee—Skirmish, near Fort Henry. Fort Hbnrt, March 12. A battalion, comprising the Firßt Nebraska and a portion cf Curtis’ lowa Cavalry Regiment, attacked a force of rebels, 600 strong, this morning, defeating them and tak ing possession of the town of Parto; bot being apprised that a large force of rebels were within a few hours’ marching distance, they retired, bringing away a number of prisoners. Company A lost five men killed, among them the sergeant-major. A second battalion, nailer command of Lieutenant-Colonel Patrick, crossed the river to day to reinforce thorn. Occupation of Winchester. Washington, March 12. A telegram just received from our correspondent at Ber ryvitle, Va., dated to-night, says : “ Our troops occupied Winchester this morning following immediately on the steps of the enemy, who have retreated towards Strasburgl A slight skirmish look place last night, and another this morning.” Tbe latest accounts from Columbus—the “impregnable” —state that the rebels will take refuge upon Island No. 10, which It seems can also be rendered “impregnable.” This is one of the numerous small islands in the Miss issippi, tbe numbering of which begins a short distance below Cairo. It is just over tho Kentucky line, nearly op posite the village of Obionville, at which heavy works were thrown up by negro laborers lost Autumn. The rebels expect, by holding the island, to block up the passageway of our iron-clad gunboats down the river; while they will doubtless send tho bulk of tbe Columbus forces to Memphis, to defend that city against a land As sault. There is no island in the river could be so fortified as to be defensible for a single day against tho combined iron clad gunboats and mortar flotilla, unless by regular stone fortifications. Any ouo of thorn could be literally paved with shot and shell, from boats beyond the reach of earthwork batteries. St. Louis, March 13. Important War Orders. Washington, March 12. The following orders by the President were published by authoriiy in the Intelligencer of this morning. Their im portance and hearing am manifest: WAR GAZETTE PUBLISHED BY AUTHORITY.

(Signed) Abraham Lincoln. In the United States House of Representa tives, on Tuesday last, Mr. Baker, of New York, introduced a bill providing for National foundries at Chicago, Pittsburg and Pough keepsie, and an appropriation of $500,000 for each;.an armory and arsenal at Columbus, Ohio, for which the sum of $200,000 is appro priated ; and powder factories, magazines and depots for saltpetre at or near Indianapolis, Ind., and Trenton, N. J., with an appropria tion of $200,000 for each. The appropriations are to be expended under the direction of the Secretary of War, who is to appoint a Board of Bix persons, three from the officers of the Ordnance Corps and three from civil life, to purchase grounds, prepare plans, &c.; an appropriation of $15,000 is made for the necessary expenses and compensation of the Board. Superintendents for each foundry, the armory and arsenal, and powder factory, are to he appointed by the President. Expensive Shot.— The Ericsson iron-plated floating battery at Green Point, has been armed with two 11-inch columbiads, which have been furnished with four hundred wrought iron Bbot, each ball costing forty seven dollars, and weighing 184 pounds. These balls were made by forging square blooks of iron at the Novelty Works, and then turning them at tho lathe. The cost of the four hundred amounts to $lB, 800, and their total weight is 73,000 pounds. Cast iron shot are liable to break in pieces when fired against thick iron plates. These wrought iron shot are for smashing through the sides of such secession floating batteries as the Merrimao at Norfolk and Hollins Turtle at New Orleans. —Scientific American.

NATIONAL FOUNDRIES “THE NO-PARTY MOVEMENT UM- MASHED.” The Republican party, seeing that its pro fessions of “no partyism” failed to deceive the people into supporting its men and measures, is apparently about to fall back on tbe old name. The Harrisburg Telegraph , tbe central organ of tbe Republican party, lately contained several -articles on tbe policy and necessity of preserving the Republican organi zation, and concludes one of its articles of Saturday in tbe following language : “ Our motto is, the Union and the Republi can organization, one and inseparable, now and forever ” Whether the Telegraph means, when it declares for the Union and tbe Republican or ganization “ one and that it is opposed to tbe preservation of the Union in separable from tbe Republican party, we are not assured, but this seems to be the meaning of the motto which it adopts. Possibly, like other kindred papers, it is for tbe Union with slavery abolished, and against the Union as constituted by our Revolutionary fathers.— Many abolition sheets of tbe country are alarmed lest the Union should be restored as it existed before tbe present rebellion, and only want it preserved by a destruction of the Constitution. The Democracy, on the other hand, contend for the supremacy of tbe Constitution, and are gallantly battling for tbe supremacy of tbe law, and the restoration of the Union, to the proud position it formerly occupied, leaving the question of slavery to settle itself. At all events tbe Telegraph has thrown off the “ no party” mask and is io favor of carry ing the Republican flag into the next elections. It does not now see any* danger to the Union iq the existence of parties and strongly argues in favor of tbe maintenance of the organiza tion of the party to which it belongs. Last fall the Democrats were denounced as traitors for refusing to sacrifice their organization.— Democratic candidates and voters were every where denounced as seceseion sympathisers for refusing to abandon their party and join the “no party” or “ Dnion” party. When however, our political opponentsjsee that their soheming is fruitless, that the honest voters cannot be led astray by their slanderous charges, and their efforts to monopolise all the loyalty ; and that defeat awaits them this year, as it overtook them last year, they throw aside all disguise and reveal the Republican organization with the Chicago Platform . The voters of the country may prepare to choose between this corrupt and sectional organiza tion and the old Union Democratic organiza tion at the ooming elections. The Democracy will oarry the old Democratic flag by the side of the ensign of the Union, and their motto is the Union and the Constitution , and the Dem ocratic Organization for the Sake of the Union. Let the issue be fairly made. Let the slanderous charges of the Democratic party cease, and let the people choose between üb. A fair election will vindicate the Democratic party for tbe Union, the Constitution and the Supremacy of the Laws. — Valley Spirit. REWARD THE BRAVE. Republics are not the only Governments .that can be accused of ingratitude. An inci dent has just occurred in France to prove this. The Emperor lately had a bill introduced into the Legislative Body to reward General Mon tauban, who led the French forces in the bril liant expedition to China, which resulted in Pekin. There was opposition made by Borne of the members, and the Gen eral wrote to the Emperor, requesting him to have the bill withdrawn. His Majesty, with out consulting with his Ministers, at once wrote the following reply, which was published the next day in the Moniieur, causing no little sen sation: “ Paris, Feb. 22, 1862. “My Dear General : The request which you make to me to withdraw the Bill of donation is inspired to you by a sentiment which Ihonor; but I shall not withdraw the Bill. The Legis lative Body may, if it pleases, not think worthy of an exceptional reward the leader of a handful of heroic soldiers who, amidst so many dificulties and dangers, forgotten on the morrow of success, went to the end of the world to plant the flag of France in the cap itol of an empire of 200,000,000 souls ; a leader who, while maintaining the dignity and inde pendence of his command, understood how to preserve the most useful and friendly relations with our allies. "Every man is free to take his own view of the mattjer. As for me, I wish the country and the army to know that, compelled to be a judge of military and political services, I have wished to honor by a national donation an unexampled enterprise. Great actions are most easily performed where they are best appreciated, and degenerate nations alono dole out public gratitude. “ Receive, my dear General, the assurance of my sincere friendship. Napoleon.” Do Not Burn the Cities. —The Augusta (Ga.) Constitutionalist, in remonstrating against the policy of burning the cities of the South as the Federal army advances, savs : “ A captured city, for instance, may serve only as a temporary convenience to an enemy, for the occupation of troops. If it be a strategic point, he would hold it though its buildings were a heap of smouldering ruins. His tents would be pitched among tho rubbish, or on the outskirts. No General would leave it because his troops did not have houses to live in. Nor would he keep his army in the best built city, on account of its fine houses, if the plans of the campaign required them elsewhere, or if the position could not be held against a supe rior force moving to repossess it.” Arrest of a Mail Robber.— A man named Brady, was arrested for robbing the U. S. Mail by Postmaster Jones, of Taibotville, Chester county, on Tuesday week. Brady had been in the employ of John J. Talbot, of Honeybrook, in driving the mail coach run ning between Phoenixvillo, Chester County, and Morgantown, Berks county, for two or three monthß. On Monday he announced his intention of leaving the employ of Mr. Talbot, hut before leaving, he desired to have his coat repaired. In handling the coat, the pockets were found to contain a lot of letters and en velopes. The letters were variously post marked and were directed to various Post Offices and different persons—some in West. Chester. The discovery was mado to Mr. Jones, the Post Master at Taibotville, who at once took possession of tho letters and envel opes. He also had Brady’s truDk examined, and in it he found a bundle of stolen letters. He took Brady in custody, and brought him to West Chestor, where he was advised to put him into the custody of the U. S. Marshal at Philadelphia. It is probable that Brady had been purloining letters for some time ; and was about to leave—perhaps for a better place to operate in. Brady was under arrest some months ago, and in the prison of Chester county, under a charge of arson. Brady had a hearing before the U. S. Commissioner, and was fully committed in default of $2,000 bail. Great oredit is due to Mr.‘Talbot for this im portant arreßt. — Village Record. Mrs. Polk. —A letter from Nashville, Tenn., in speaking of the visit of Gen. Grant and some of his staff to the widow of President Polk, describes the appearance of the mansion, and says: “ In one corner, surrounded by emblematic evergreens, is a tasteful, costly tomb, beneath which sleeps the onoo powerful chief of a then united nation. Mrs. Polk is a well preserved lady of perhaps 50 years of age. She received her visitors courteously, but with a polished coldness that indicated sufficiently in which way her sympathies ran—she was simply polite and lady-like; in no case patriotic.— “While she discreotly forbore to give utterance to any expression of sympathy for the South, she as rigidly avoided saying anything that might he construed into a wish for the suc cess of the Government. She hoped, she said, that the tomb of .her husband would protect Tier household and property from pillage; further than this she expected nothing from the United Stateß, and desired nothing.” In the Rhode Island House of Assem bly, a proposition to extend to adopted citizens equal rights with natives, was recently reject ed, every vote against it coming from Repub licans. Know Nothingism still lives.”— Foreign born citizens are earnestly called upon to enlißt to fight.in defence of our institutions, bnt the Republicans refuse to them the rights they ask them to fight for! Is there, or was there ever, anything meaner or more wicked than Know-NothingUm ?' We think not, un less it be the Republicanism of the present day.— N. S. Patriot. TWO WATS OF PUTTIHG A ftUEB* TIOS. From the Cincinnati Enquirer.] Shall the laboring millions of the North be burdened with taxes in order to keep the laboring millions of the Sonth in perpetual bondage ?—New York Tribune; * Oar cotemporary has just exactly reversed the question, which is, “Shall the laboring people of the North be burdened-with taxes in order to give the negro .of.the South his. free dom, and to support him after be is emanci pated ?” That is what President Lincoln proposes, and his proposition is endorsed by the Tribune. The President and the Tribune are in favor of spending, we suppose, a thou sand million of dollars to buy the liberty of the blacks in the South. Of course, the labor ing millions of the North would have to sustain a crushing tax in order to carry out tiful scheme—a tax which would be an incu bus upon them for years, and which would finally paralyze their industry. A large portion of the freed negroes would come North, and either have to be snpported os pau pers at the public expense, or, if they labored, wonld come in contact with the white labor ing millions, and torn them out of employ ment, taking the bread out of their children's months, besides degrading the white man by compelling him to labor alongside the African. In view of these facts, the Tribunes article is oertainly a fine specimen of audacity. Gen. McClellan. —A despatch from Wash ington'Bays In their efforts to disparage General McClel lan, the radicals are continually committing egregious blunders and outraging history. The order books of the Commanding General, and the commandants of the several depart ments, contain a complete history of the origin of all the plans of the campaign, and point unmistakably to their author. The efforts to confer this honor, first on General Fremont, then General Halleck, then General Grant, and lastly upon Flag Officer Foote, are all equally as vain as the effort of Mr. Shanks in the House to attribute to Gen. Fremont the idea of employing gunboats on the Western waters. Unfortunately for Mr. Shanks' argu ment, these gunboats were ordered and advertised for before Gen. Fremont returned home from Europe, and the construction of three of them was actually begun before be took command of the Department of the West. The facts show that preparations and plans of the Western campaign were all projected while Gen. McClellan was commanding the whole Department of the West, which then included Kentucky, Tennessee and Missouri. None but a physician knows how much a reliable alterative is needed by the people. On all sides of us, in all communities every where there are multitudes that suffer from complaints that nothing but an alterative cures. Hence a great many of them have been made and put abroad with the assurance of being effectual. But they fail to accom plish the cures they promise because they havo not the intrinsic virtues they claim. In this state of the case, Dr. J. C. Ayer & Co., of Lowell, have supplied us with a compound Extract of Sarsaparilla, which does prove to be the long* desired remedy. Its peculiar dif ference from other kindred preparations in market is that it cures the diseases for which it is recommended, while they do not. We are assured of this fact by more than one of our intelligent Physicians in this neighbor hood, and have the further evidence of our own experience of its truth. —Tennessee Far mer, Nashville, Tenn. A Wife Makes two Attempts upon her Husband’s Life. —The Cincinnati Enquirer relates the particulars of a double attempt by a wife to take her husband's life. The names of the parties, who are respectable and reside at Newport, Ky., are suppressed. The diffi culty between them arose from the refusal of the husband to give his wife $2O, whereupon she poisoned his coffee with Btrychnine, (which fortunatelyfailed of its effects,) and afterwards attempted to dash a bottle of vitriol in his face. Steps have been taken to procure a divorce. The Post office at West Chester, was robbed on Tuesday night, the 4th inst. The burglars forced open the back window shatters and thus obtained an entrance. A number of letters, about $2O in money, and some postage Btamps, were taken. Next morning a pile of burnt letters were found a few squares off, and a small bag of letters was also found in a wood pile near Eachus' dam. The letters taken were of little value. The Post Master offers $5O for the conviction of the robbers.
