both in the rear and on the advance.

three hundred, rebels'hovered- oa'each flmk»
Tfhil all tbe heavy force in our rear was con

4 pounder stet-1 guns, which were spiked before
being captured. All their ammunition was saved.
General fcroith back slowly, our troops
ambushing the rebels as they advanced. The
rebel lose is quue heavy.
General Smith burned every trestle on the i
Memphis and Ohio Railroad, and destroyed miles
ol the track and large-quantities of com as we lell
hick.
On the 22d we broke camp at 1 A. M., after
resting only two hours. There was severe fighting
in the rear all day.' As the roads* were ambushed
at every available-point, volley alter volley was
poured into them at shoTt range, but having so
much tbe larger force, they continued to press our
rear heavily.
The ivbel column move<\ on each flank, with
the evident design of reaching the Tallahatchie in
advance of onr fores, and forming a junction to
prevent onr crossing, and capture the whole com
mand, but by forced marching General Smith
passed both the flanking columns, and marching
all night crossed safely at Kew Albany.
23d. The rear guard was skirmishing alltiav.
24th, The skirmishing was continued. 25th, We
marched fifty-two miles, arriving at Memphis at
11 P M. Most of the expedition, however,
stopped at Colliersville.
Tbe following is an estimate ef the The
expedition des royed over one million bushels of
corn, tore up and destroyed miles of the Memphis
and Ohio Railroad track, burned many bridges
and nestles, captured and brought,over 1500 mules
and 1 ones, about 2000 negroes and over 300 rebel
prisoners. It is impossible to give our loss, but
..It is much less than the enemy's.
The expedition'was successful at every point
and in every particular, except the important one
of making a jtraction with General Sherman,
which is attributed mainly to the slow movements
of the New Jersey and Pennsylvania Cavalry
Eegim?n?s, which causeda week's delay in start
ing the expedition.
The retreat was not at any time a rout, though
there was some straggling.
_The Pre ident’s Amnesty Proclamation and
Qen. Grant’s orders were extensively circulated
throughout the country. . , .
’TSE BETBEAT OF LONGSTREET.
Knoxville, ieb. 28.—At the last, accounts,
Lob get reel was still retreating-his headquarters be
ing at Gceen-yille on "Wednesday night. Onr ca
valry came hpon his rear guard in the vicinity of
Uean s btation yesterday, and a slight skirmish
onsned, when the rebels gave way.
Gen. Schofield is pursuing with his troops, but
owing to the rapid retreat of the enemy no engage
ment is expected this Eide of the Virginia line.
The railroad. bridge at Strawberry Plains and the
track, were injured beyond the possibility of pre
sent use. Five officers and a number of men de
serted when Longstreet fell back, and have taken
the amnesty oath. The officers state that he Is re

leaving Johnston and Buckner to protect the Vir

THE BATTLE IN FLORIDA
Beaufort, S. U. ,>Feb. 23.—1 have just got to

in Florida. Two hundred and forty wounded
were brought here last night, and more yet to

(colored), are wounded, but not seriously
Colonel Hallowell and Captain Watson, ofyonr

"WASHiHGTOJi, Feb.* 27, lSP4.r* Col, t .Boyd ha 3,
made the following affidavit forthe House Military
Committee, who will take some action upon .it .at
once: '
United States of America, District of Co
lumbia, 'Washington City, ss:~Joseph. F.
Boyd, being duly sworn, says that he is a,resident
of Louisville, Kentucky,and is an Assistant Quar
master in the United States Army, and while as
Chief Quartermaster of the Second Army Corps,
with the rank of Lieutenant-Colonel, upon the 2d
of October was captured by the rebels and taken
te'Ricbmond, reaching Libby Prison November
Ist, 1803. Privates captured bythe. same party of
rebels who captured me, and with; whom l ‘ra
velled during the’ period of three weeks immedi
ately subsequent to -ray capture, were partly
stripped of their clothing, bucU as blankets and
hoes, and in that c ndiuon were compelled to
travel with the command.
We reached Atlanta about the 23d of November,
3863, remaining there four days. During that time
our hundred and fifty prisoners werr brought m,
captured in East Tenue-see, belooging to the First
and Eleventh Kentucky and Forty-fifth Ohio Re
giment. These prisoners were stripped of their
blankets, haversacks, overcoats, and some of them
came in barefooted and were turned into the jail
yaid enclosure, which afforded only shelter for a
small portion, and weTekept for twenty-four hours
without food during an inclement rain storm.
Cn the 10th of November, i&KJ, shortly after ray
arrival at Libby, I. was appointed by the rebel au
thorities one of the three appointed to distribute
tbe clothing tentby the United States Government
to Richmond, for ihe United States soldiers impri
soned there, and in that capacity had extended op
portunities to observe the treatment of our officers
and soldiers who were held as prisoners of war by
the rebels.
Upon Belle Island the prisoners of war, and
xnostiy those captured during the month* of Ju y
and August, are with comparatively little cloth
ing, their blouses and blankets gone. I 1 and
many of them without shirts, many without pan
taloons, many without drawers, shoes or' stock
in gs, and none (With an occasional exception) with
blankets or overcoats. They had been furnished
with no article of clothing by the rebels Tbe ra
tion per man consisted per mem of a f mall piece of
corn uread, made of a small piece of unbolted meal,
just sufficient, with an occasional issue of meat
and vegetables, to support life, and not enough to
satisfy hunger. 'While there was no cases of actual
starvation came under my observation, the regimen
of diet was so reduced, and the strength and health
of the prisoners accordingly, that when sickness
intervened the patient almost at once succumbed to
the disease. -
I visited four other prisons in Richmond and
three hospitals, all need for United States’
prisoners ol war.. Their condition as to clothing
and shelter was better, but largely over-crowded.
The rations are the same as those issued to the
prisoners upon Belle Island. In the hospitals the
prisoners were treated in all respects as well as the
facilities of the rebel authorities wruld, in my
opinion,permit. J. F. BOYD,

ARTHUR J. WILLIAMS, Justice of Peace.
From late Southern newspapers we glean the
following items:
A. G. Brown, Confederate Senator trom Mis
sissippi, has written a letter to the Enquirer, in
reply to a communication that appeared charging
the Federal Government with maltreating the rebel
Erisontrs on Johnson's Island. Mr. Brown says
e has a friend there who corresponds with him
regularly, and says his imprisonment was as mild
ns he could expect, and that he was in want of
nothing but liberty. With regard to fuel the pri
soners have a sufficiency, and (says Mr. Brown)
< -on the 12th be gives a bill of prison fare, and i
-undertake to say that half the families in Rich
mond do not fare so well.’' »Mr. Brown states
his reasons 1 for* making .this statement thus
—“First, I would do justice to an
enemy, next, I would not exasperate that enemy
by publishing exaggerated if not false accounts of
his cruel treatment ol our prisoners, and thus in
duce him to change mild and even kind treatment
intohsrshif not cruel treatment; and lastly.,these
accounts will meet the eye of many persons in our
country who have friends on Johnson’s Island,
and if uncorrected, they cannot faii to inflitt ua
necessary pain upon such persons. With & change
of commanders there may come a change of treat
ment, but I ain perfectly satisfied that, up to tie
2<ith of last month, the prisoners on Johnson’s
Island were treated as well as their friends in the
Confederacy could reasonablyexpect •'
Upon this lettter the Enquirer comments, and
makes an issue between Jeff. Davis and thejsen
utor by saying that if the statements made as to
ill treatment to rebel prisoners by. correspondents
were false, then-also President Davis mode a
“false fctatement,'* when be in his message called
attention to the alleged ill treatment of rebel prie-
I oners on Johnson's Island.
The Enquirer copies from the Savannah (Ga.)
EepuUitan an account of the arrest of Robert
Toombs, which article starts oat by saying, 1 > We
have said nothing of the recent arrest of Heneral
(now Colonel) Toombs, and hW trial now pro
gressing before a court martial In tilts city, for the
reason that we regarded it simply acaseof military
discipline in which the public would feel no par
ticular interest. - ’
The KtpuUican goes bn to say that the statements
published in Richmond pacers about the 1 ‘treason,
disloj alty, passport, ana old women parts of the
story are all pure fabrications,” and iho real
canse of.the arrest and trial, was on acconnt of a
quarrel wi'h a railroad employe. Toombs was
about leaving Savannah with his command, ahd
the latter being in box-cars, built a fire therein on
bricks laid upon the-ildor,'to which the conductor
of the train objected. This excited the fire ot
Toombs and be threatened to cut the conductor to
•pieces and put him in his engine for fuel, and
afterwards caused his arrest and started with the
tram. These facts were reported to the Railroad
Upon thßir complaint, Toombs was
arrested and ordered to trial. w .
TbcPVilmingt°n Journal, of February. llth, no
tices the great fire which occurred in that cl y on
the 9 th, and says the bales of cotton there destroyed
would average at least 450 pounds, wortff there
SI 50, making the. loss in cot;on alone 5691 875
The other property destroyed would probably
brin g the amount up to §7OO, M. The Jemma, be
lieves the lire was the wprk of incendiaries.
The Journal treats at length upon the “Agitation
in North Carolina,” and says at the beginning of
the present war they ‘ ‘seriously hoped and trnsted
-that partisan agitation,, if not extinct, wonld at
least besnspended until the great straggle might be
brought to a close;” and the article continues as
follows: ‘‘Butwe say here, that we only state
wbatwe know, when we affirm that the move
ments now endeayoiing to be made in NorthCtro
lina, ore the cause of the deepest apprehension
not simply in Richmond, bnt.thronghout the Con
federacy—not simply in official circles, bat in the
army and among the people. They discourage our
brave defenders; they encourage our ruthless as
sailants. ’ ’ The article then concludes by deplor
ing the agitation on the subject of peace and recon
struction, and advißes papers in North Carolina to
cause tte asitatiol V^ or the good of the Confederate
