We publish on our outside, the late speech of Senator Ljndov, npon the joint resolutions relating to the abolition of slavery in the Dis trict of Columbia, and in answer to Messrs. Lamberton and Clymer. To those who have read the remarks by the Senator published in this paper some weeks since—we need hardly recommend a perusal of this speech, as the bold, original and elo quent utterances contained in that speech will insure for this a ready perusal. We have seen nothing in the discassion of the proposition, which goes so directly at the merits or demer its of the question as the speech which is now published. Senator Landon has away of speaking directly at the heart of the subject —he probes the disease he would remedy with a daring and skilful hand, and talks of things as they are. The excoriation he inflicts upon the sj6tem of Slavery and its supporters and abetters is almost terrific—and its effect iD the Senate of Pennsylvania, was decided and gratifying. The Legislature adjourned sine die, on Friday last. Previous to adjournment the bill districting the State iuto Congressional dis tricts, was passed ns follows : I. Second, third, fmrt. fifth, sixth and eleven wards fn the i ity of Philadelphia. IT. First, seventh, eighth, ninth and tenth wards in the city of Philadelphia. 111.

EMANCIPATION. —The Senate of the United States on Wednesday, says the Tribune, passed the Joint Resolve from the Honse pro posing, in the exact words suggested by the President in his recent Message of Freedom, to extend National nid to such Slave States as shall see (It to " initiate Emancipation."— The vote stood—Yeas, 35; Nays, 10 ; and best of all, Garrett Do vis of Kentucky, Wil ley "f Virginia, avp John B. Henderson, of Missouri, voted in the affirmative. Mr. Cow au of Pennsylvania was absent or failed to vote, aud such, wo regret to say, was the case also with Mr. Harris of our own State Still, the affirmative vote is larger than we had even hoped to see it. All the New Eng land States west of Pennsylvania (save those on the I'aciCe, voted solid for the President's proposition ; but the affirmative votes from Virginia, Kentucky, and Missonri are most precious of oil. Delaware and Maryland went the other way, because their Senators have linked their fortunes with those of the Democratic party,and cling to Slavery as that party's sheet-anchor. The people of those States will yet speak for themselves. The Connecticot State election was held on Monday. The " Peace Meeting De mocracy made tremendous efforts to carry the Slate. They nominated their strongest man —a Mr. Looms—for Governor, but the peo ple—the true friends of the Union were so well satisfied with the present Republican Gover nor, WJI. A. BCCUINCHAM, that they re-elected him by an increased majority. The Legisla ture is at last two thirds Union Republican. The people of Connecticut are determined that the Government shall bo upheld, the Union Maintained and the Slaveholder's Rebellion put down, no matter at what cost. Gen Wool's dispatches to the Depart ment on Suuday night reports that the Merri mac bad not made her appearance during the day. Her object Gen. Wool enp' O'es to be to prevent any interference with the land of 11-bei reinforcements, which appears from Gen. Wool's stab ment, as well as Gen.

The Savannah Republican of the 12tb, ao ] uouuees the surrender of Fort Pulaski on the j j previous day. Several fatge efflhrasnres were ! made in the wall by ocr batteries at Kingston, of Parrott guns and. all the Barbet guus on I that side—and eight casemate guns were dis mounted. Three balls entered the magazine, j Col. Almstead, rebel commander, *>aid that the ; day previous onr fire was so terrible that no human being could stand on the parapet for a I moment. THE GREAT BATTLE. We publish iu another part of today's pa per, a brief accouul of the great battle of | Pittsburg Landing—the greatest battle ever fought on this continent, and terminated in the total route of the enemy, and complete snccess of the Union forces. Our force were stationed in the form of a semicircle—the centre in front of the main road to Corinth, the left wing extending to the Tennessee River, and the right wing re sisting on a point to the north called Crumps Landing. At 2 o'clock Sunday morning, the I preliminary skirmish took place half a mile in 1 advance of our lines. The main body of the reb els advanced, and at 6 o'clock the attack hud become geDcral along our wbole front. At 10 the entire line on both sides was fully engaged. The contest ou both sides was for death or victory. Foot by foot the ground was con , tested, the fortunes of the day wavering, and the enemy having succeeded in capturing two of onr batteries and driving back some of our ! columns. The enemy was manoeuvered with j great skill. They tried to break our centre, then our left, then the centre again,and again i the left. While the fight was hot, one of our gunboats came up and did good service. At night the rebels fell back, having failed in achieving decided success at any point. In the night Gen. Buell's troops arrived,audjwere immediately sent to the advance; and the reb els were also reinforced. The battle was open ed by the rebels next morning (Monday) at 7 o'clock, and in half an hour it raged along the whole line. The enemy labored desperately to find some weak points in our lines ; but he j found the task hopeless. Suddenly both wings of cur army were turned opon the enemy; ar.d he began to fall back, retreatiuc, however, in order. He was driven beyond our lines, and made for Corinth, harrassed by our cavalry.— ' And so ended the great Battle of Pittsburg ! Landing. The forces engaged in the lost day's battle are estimated at 70,000 ou each side. Ex. ejjsive Shot. —The Ericsson iron-plated floating battery, at Green Point, has been armed wirh two 11 inch columbiacß, which have been furnished with 400 wrought iron shot, each ball costing $47, and weighing IS4 pounds. These balls were made by forging square blocks of iron at the Novelty Works, then turning them with a lathe. The co>t of the -400 amounts to SIB,BOO, and their to tal weight is 70,000 pounds. Cast iron shot j are liable to break in pieces when fired against : thick iron plates. These wrought iron shot arc for smashing through the sides of such secession floating batteries, as the Merrimac at Norfolk, and Hollin's Turtle at Now Or- leans.— Scicnlijic American. JEFF. DAVIS' NEW CABINET.— A despatch from Richmoud, dated March 23d says the rebel President ha 3 appointed and the rebel Senate confirmed the following Cabinet offi cers. Their term of office is likely to be very short : Secretary of State —J. P. Beujamine, of Louisana. Secretary of War —Geo. W. Randolph, of Virginia. * Secretary of the Navy —S. R. Mallowry, of Florida. Secretary of the Treasury —C. G. Mem rninger, of South Carolina. Attorney General —T. 11. Watts. Postmaster General —Mr. Reagan, of Tex as. &3T A private letter from Gen. McClellan, received in Washington, says that he found the rebel fortifications at Yorktown ten time 3 stronger than be anticipated, but be is confi dent of eventual success. The Richmond jour nals, cn the other hand, affect to believe that the Union force has beeu entrapped at York town, and that Gen. Johston will die of old age before he is vanquished in the Peninsula. SPEAKER OF THE SENATE -Hon. G. Y. LAW RENCE Republican Senator from the Washing ton district,was elected speaker of the Senate, previous to the final adjournment of that body on the 11th inst. Senator LAWRENCE is an experienced legislator, having occupied seats both in the Honse and Senate for years past, and must consequently make a very efficient presiding officer. DEATH OF A MEMBER OF CONGRESS —Hon. Thomas B. Cooper, member of Congress from the Lehigh and Bucks District, died at his home in Cooperburg, Lehigh County, on Fri day evening last. Mr. Cooper's health was very critical at the time of his election to Con gress, and since tleu has been rapidly failing until a few weeks ago, when he was compelled to reti.ru to his home. KB" Gen. Bauks reports the receipt of in telligence through Jackson's Rebel camp, an nouncing the deat of Beauregard.

GEXS. BEAI REtABD AXD JOXBTOX KILLED. CIN'CISSATI, April 10. A correspondent ol the Twits writes the fol lowing account of the Pittsburg battle : Our forces were stationed in the form of a semi circle, the right resting on a point north of Crump's Landing, our centre being iu front of the main road to Corinth, and our left ex tending to the river ia the direction of Hain bnrgb, four miles north of Pittsburg Landing. At 2 o'clock, on the morning of the 6th, four hundred men of Gen. Prentiss' Division were attacked by the enemy, half a mile in ad vance of onr lines. Our men fell back on the Twenty Fifth Missouri, swiftly pursued by tho enemy. The advance of the rebels reached Col. Peabody's Brigade just as the long roll | was sounded, and the men were falling into | line. Resistance was but short, and they re treated under a galiing fire, until they reached the lines of the Second Division. At 6 o'clock the attack had become general along our whole front. The enemy, in large numbers, drove in the pickets of Gen. Slier man's Division, and fell on the Forty Eighth. Fiftieth aud Seventy Second Ohio Regiments, Those troops were never before in action, and, being so unexpectedly attacked, made as able a resistance as possible, but were, in common with the forces of Gen. Prentiss, forced to seek the support of the troops immediately iu their ! rear. At 10 o'clock the entire line ou both sides were fully engaged—the roar of cannon and musketry was without intermission from the main centre to a point extending half way down the left wing. The rebels made a des perate charge on the Fourteenth Ohio battery, which, not being sufficiently supported by in fantry, fell into their bands. Another severe fight occurred for possession of the Fifth Ohio battery, and three ot its guns were taken by the enemy. By II o'clock, a number of commanders of regiments had failed, and in some cases not a single field officer remained ; yet the fighting continued with an earnestness which showed thut the contest on both sides was lor death or victory. Foot by foot the ground was con tested, and finding it impossible to drive back our centre, the enemy slackened their fire, and made vigorous efforts on our left wing, endeav oring to outflank and drive it to the river bank. This wing was under Gen. Hurlbiirt, and was composed of the Fourteenth, Thirty second. Forty Fourth and Fifty Seventh Lull ana ; Eighth, Eighteenth and Twenty Firs: Illinois. Fronting its line, however, was the Fourteenth,Fifty-Seventh and Seventy Seventh Ohio, nt'd Fifth Ohio Cavalry of Gen. Sher man's Division. For nearly two hours a sheet of fire blazed from both columns, the rebels fighting with a vigor that was on y equaled by those contending with them. While the contest raged the hottest, the gnnboat Tyler passed up the river to a point opposite the enemy, and poured in broadsides from her immense guns, greatly aidi g in forc ing the enemy back. L T p to three o'clock the battle raged with a fury that defies description. The rebels had found every attempt to break our lines unavailing Tliey had striven to drive in our main column, and finding that impossible, had turned all their strength upon our left. Foiled in that quarter, they now made another attempt at our centre, and made every effort to route our forces before the reinforceuit nts which had been sent for should come up. At 5 o'clock there was a short cessation in the fire of the enemy, their lines falling back for nearly half a mile, when they suddenly wheeled, and again their entire forces upon our left wing, determined to make a final struggle in that quarter, but the gunboats Ty ler and Lexington poured in their shot thick and fast, with terrible effect. Meanwhile Gen. Wallace, who had token a circuitous route from Crump's Landing, ap peared suddenly on the enemy's light wing.— In the face of this combination of circumstan ces, the rebels felt that their enterprise tor the day was a failure, and as night was approach ing, fell back until they reached an advantage ous position somewhat in the rear, yet occupy ing the main road to Corinth. The gunboats continued to throw shells at them until they were out of range. After a wearied watching of several hours of intense anxiety, the advance regiments of Gen. Buell appeared on the opposite bank of ihe river. The work of passing the river be gan, the Thirty Sixth Indiana and Sixty-Eighth Ohio being the first to cross, followed by the main portions of Gens. Nelson and Broce's Divisions. Cheer after cheer greeted their ar rival, and they were immediately sent to the advance, where they rested on their arms for the night All night long steamers were en gaged ferrying Gen. Bucll's force across, and when daylight broke, it was evident the rebels, too, had been strongly reinforced. The battle was opened by the rebels at 7 o'clock, from the Corinth road, and in half an hour extended along the whole line. At 9 o'clock the sound of artillery and musketry fully equalled that of the previous day. The enemy was met by our reinforcements and the still uuwcaritd soldiers of yesterday, with an energy they certainly could not have expected. It became evident they were avoiding the extreme of our left wing, and endeavoring, with persevertnee and determination, to find some weak point by which to turn our force. They left one point but to return to it immedi ately, and then as suddenly would, by some masterly stroke of Generalship, direct a most vigorous attack upon seme division where they fancied they would uot be expected ; but the fire of our lines was as steady us clock-work, and it soon became evident that the enemy considered the tusk they had undertaken a hopeless one. Further reinforcements now began to arrive, and took position on the right of the main centre, nnder Gen. Wallace. Gens. Grant, Buell, Nel-on, Sherman and Crittenden were everywhere present, directing movements for a new stroke on the enemy. Suddenly both winsrs of our army were turned upon the enemy, with the intention of driving them into an ex tensive ravine. At the same time a powerful battery, stationed in the open field, poured volley alter volley of canister into the rebel ranks. At half-past eleven o'clock tb roar of the battle shook the earth. The Union RODS were fired with all the energy that the prospect of the enemy's defeat iospired, while the rebels' fire was not so rigorous, and they evinced a de sire to withdraw. They finally fell slowly back, keeping up a fire from their artillery and musketry along their whole column as they re treated. They went in excellent order, bat tling at every advantageous point, and deliver ing their fire with considerable effect ; but from all the divisions of on", lines they were closely pursued, a gulling fire being kept upon then rear. The enemy had now been driven beyond our former lines, and were in full retreat for Cor iuth, pursued by our cavalry. The forces engaged on both sides in this day's battle are estimated at about 10,000 each. CAIRO, April 10,18G2. Our loss at the sanguiuary battle near Pitts burg, Tenu., is officially reported to be 1,000 killed and wounded. The loss of the enemy is much greater. They were utterly routed, after the most de'ermiued and desperate re sistance, on the seeoud day Albert Sydney Johnston's body was found on the field after the Rebels had run and left everything calcu lated to impede their flight. Gen. Huileck has just left here for Pittsburg. An arrival from Pittsburg Landing says that the Rebels, in making the first attack ou Sunday morning, carried the Stars and Stripes, aud wore the Union uniform. Gen. Bragg is reported to have been killed Provisional Guvernor Johnson of Kentucky is wounded, and was taken prisoner. It is stated that Gen. Prentiss escaped iti the confusion of the Rebels' retreat on the second day's fight. Our total loss is about 1,000. This is the estimate of the military commanders who were in the engagement. Of this number about 2,000 were taken prisoners, the balance are killed and wounded in the usual proportions. Gen. Wallace of Illinois was reported dead, as it was thought impossible that lie could live, lie was, however, living oil Wednesday, and improving. lie was shot in the back of the car, the bullet coming out of his nose. During the duy, Johnson (one of the very first Genarals in the Rebel ranks,) was shot dead by a cannon ball, and his body left in our posscssiou. Beaurcgerd had one arm shot off. REPORTED DEATH OF BEAURE GARD. WOODSTOCK, Va., April 13, 1862. To the Hoa. E. M. Stautus, Secretary of War: We learn from Jackson's Camp this morn ing that Gen. Beauregard is dead. Tlie report comes direct (rom rebel sources, near Mount Jackson. Impressive services were beld to-day in all the lirigades. Tiiere is nothing new to report in regeid to the cuemy. X. P. BAXKS, Major-Gencral. WOUNDED AND PRISONERS OF THE PITTSBURG LANDING BATi'LE. LOCISOII.LE, Ky., April 13,1802. The steamer Minuchalia arrived here to day with about '240 wounded from Pittsburg LHid ing, whereof one-fourth are rebels. A wounded officer reports that George W. Johnson Provisional Governor of Kentucky, had his horse shot under him on Sunday while acting on Breckinridge's Staff, and was him self killed on .Monday when fighting in Steel's company of the 4th (Rebel) Kentucky Regi ment. CAIRO. Satuvlny. April 12,1562. The steamer Woodford, Irom Pittsburg, ar rived here today, with 200 to 300 prisoners from that place. Siie also brought down the body of Gen. Wallace. The report that Gen. Prentiss had escaped is untrue. JEFF. DAVIS TO TAKE THE FIELD BALTIMORE, Saturday, April 12, LSTI2. On Monday Jtff. Davis addressed some wounded soldiers, and said lie intended to share their fate on the next battle bold, and come weal or woe he would be with them; arid what ever might betide, whether victory or defeat ensued, of tne thing he assured them —" the cause is safe ; we'll conquer in the end." WHEELING, Ya., April 11, 1862. To the Hon. E. M. Stanton, Secretary of War : A dispatch just received from Gen. Milroy, at Monterey, under date of yesterday, states as foil ws : "The rebels, about one thousand strong, with cavalry companies and two pieces of ur tillery, attacked my pickets this morning about 10 u'ciocK, and drove them some two miles. " I sent out re-enforcements consisting of two companies :>f the 75th Ohio, two compa nies of the 2d Virginia, two companies of the 32d Ohio, oue gun of Capt Hyman's battery, and one company of cavalry, all under Mnjor Webster. The skirmishing was brisk for a short time, but the Rebels were put to flight with considerable loss. The casualties on our side were three men of the 75th badly wounded. The men behaved nobly." JOHX C.FREMOXT, Major-General Commanding. Intelligence has just arrived that transpor tation, long since asked for this Department, has at last been ordered ; also that re-enforce ments, nnder Gen. Blenker, are coming up— when and what number is not stated. A telegram from Gen Scheuck, District of Cumberland, gives a rumor that the Rebel Gen. Jackson has ordered his Green Brier force, 4,000, to Moorfield. They are not yet in sight. Gen. Milroy, at Monterey, reports organ ized bands of thieves and murderers, under commissions from Ex Gov rnor Letcher, in that vicinity, and his prompt measures to extermi nate them. Gen. Cox sends encouraging news from the Kanawha, but speaks of bottomless roads, rivers of the batiks, and a week of terrific storms. FORTRESS MONROE, April 11, 1862. The Merriraac, Jamestown, and Yorktown, and several gunboats and tugs, appeared be tween Newport News and Sewall's Point. The only damage done us is the capture of three small vessels, one empty, and one loaded, it is said with coal. These vessels were captured opposite Brigadier General Casey's division, some two hundred feet from shore, with guns of three inch calibre. JOHX E. WOOL. Msjor-General. To Hon. E. M. Stanton.
