LONDON, April 10, 1862.
Parliament having adjourned to tha and of tha
month, and most of the politicians, in and out of
office, baring soatterod themselves at their various
country seats all over the country, there is no news
To-day, I shall only give you rogue gossip.
Prince Napoleon is expected hero in a day or
two, as heed of the French Commission at the
Great Exhibition. The Emperor may come,—but
it is doubtful, for there aro rumors that he is afraid
of an attempt +0 assassinate him, by 9901 e or the
exiled French Red Republicans, who have literally
made Leicester Square a French gnarlier. If he
does come, it will probably be with state, display,
or formality, Ahd imae6ompe.lod by his wife. Just
now, Napoleon is popular here, beeanse of his
having . put a positive veto on the Archbishop of
Toulouse's proposition of having a semi-religious
jubilee to dolobrate the three hundredth anniver
sary of the Massacre of St. Bartholomew. English
Protestants are grateful for this wretched intolerance
and bigotry being sternly condemned.
Club-law is a terrible thing, when, in London
Society, it gins the cut direct to 'persons in high
station. The other day, at Brooke's Club, the
Liberal club of London, above all others, out of the
fay which flourish there, Mr. Robert Lowe, a lead
ing member of the Palmerston Ministry, as Presi-
dent of the Board of 'stealth and Vice President of
the Education Board, was solemnly blackballed,
not by one ball, which excludes, but, it is said, by
twenty, This is a heavy souls, blow at the jurveittc
Privy Councillor, and may be taken as expressive
of his own friends' dislike to his recent attempts to
Cid down the incomes, increase the work, and lower
the status of the school-teachers in the National
Schools. Perhaps, too, it was feared or felt that
Lowe was not " a clubable man," (which Dr. John
son said Jemmy Boswell was ; ) or, more probably
his connection with The Tinees, as one of its editors,
may have caused his rejection. Club folks dislike
chicle (• amang them takin' notes," milts I ViVIT tO
" prent them."
Still, though these causes may have kept Mr.
Robert Lowe out of Brooke's, why on earth should
its aristocratic - Whip also hays blackballed Mr.
Owen .stanley, M. P. for Beaumaris, and twin-
brother of Lord Stanley, of Alderloy, Postmaster-
General, and a Cabinet Minister? Fat, good
humored, gentlemanly Owen Stanley is the hiet
roan one would pronounce ineligible for Brookes's.
It is said that his position as a director of the Ches
ter and liolshead Railway has a touch of trade in
it, which comes between the wind and the nobility
of the club! If so, hew has it happened that 'Frank.
Crossley, M. P. for West Yorkshire, who is only a
carpet manufacturer at Halifax, is within the
charmed circle of Brookes' ? These incidents may
PPADI trifling to you, hut have caused much 'discus
sion, surprise, anger, and speculation here. Sure
sign that we have not much of real importance to
think or talk about.
The amount collected, lu London, from all parts
of the country, for the Albert Memorial, stands still
at 143,000—a large sum, but not a fifth of what
was expected. Strong means have been used every
where, to gain subscriptions, even from the middle
and working .classes, but with little effeot. The
idea of setting up an Egyptian obelisk, in honor of
a modern Christian gentleman, has been abandoned,
notwithstanding Queen Victoria's desire b r suc h a
memorial. As she has not contributed one six.
pence to the Fund, people have presumed to ques
tion her right to force her idea on the committee.
The city of Oxford bee ordered a marble statue of
Prince Albert, to be presented to the University,
and placed on this library ., of the new Museum
there.
In addition to his. recently•purchased estate in
Norfolk, the Prince of Wales has beeeme proprietor
of a shooting-box in Devonshire—that is, one-half
the land is in that charming county, famous for
pretty girls and clouted cream, sparkling cider and
Welt eyes, and the remainder is in Cornwall, The
dwelling-house is in Devonshire, but within a mile
or two of the borough of Launceston. Werrington
Park, the name of this place, has been purchased
from the Duke of Northumberland by the Duke of
Newcastle, as niceessor, until next Lord Mayor's
Day, to the late Prince Albert, in the Warderiship
of the Duchy of Cornwall. In all probability, the
Prince of Wales is yet ignorant (last advie ea leaving
him near Jerusalem) of Ibis purchase la his mo
netary guardian. The park is of considerable eV.-
tent, and full of game, and the district around is a
fine hunting tract. There are several fine angling
rivers near and through the district—partiou
larly the Tamar—and the sea is at hand.
Moreover, even as a matter of policy, it is
only proper for the Prince, as hereditary Duke
of Coinwall, to have a residence in the re
gion which yields him a private income of some
£40,000 a year, and will place half a million ster
ling, bard cash, of saved rents in his hands, on tue
9111 of November next, when he will be twenty-one
years old.
Six hundred years ago Werrington Pa* was
formed. Two centuries later it was owned by the
great Ordulpb, Duke of Devonshire, (whoever Ice
may be,) and, in Elizabeth's time, was owned by
hold Sir Francis Drake, the great sea-captain.
Eventually, it was bought by the Northumberland
family, and its closeness to the borough of 441 1 .11994 -
ton, (whereof the Duke of Northumberland is Con•
stable, by royal patent.) has given its late owner
great influence there. You are aware that " Sam
Slick," Thomas Chandler Haliburton) has been
M. P. for Launceston since May, 1559. Ile was elected
by the interest of the Duke of Northumberland,
who owns nearly every house in the town, and has
its ei7t thousand inhabitants completely under hie
thumb. The Duke, a strong Tory, is adequately
represented by Mr. Haliburton, who made a very
anti-American speech in the House of corn
mona, a few months ego. Mr. Haliburton has
not succeeded in Parliament. He was some years
past sixty when he entered the /louse of Commons,
and has evidently been working, by his votes and
speeches, for the Governorship of Nova Sofia,—
having already been a Judge in that Colony. lie
has several respectable relatives in Philadelphia, I
understand, to whom his strong sympathy with the
rebel South will scarcely recommend him, though
It may do him service with the Derby party, should
they resume office before he becomes superan
nuated. In Parliament, which he entered with the
high prestige of successful authorship, he is now a
mese hobocly, without Irdinerme or connection.
His patron, the Duke of Northumberland, suc
ceeded his elder brother, the late Duke, who died
In 1847. Before that, he was Lord Prudhoe "on
hie own hook," and not only a great traveller, but
a man of literary and artistical tastes. Here he is,
seventy years old, the richest and noblest bachelor
of England, with an income so immense—from
landed estates in Northumberland, Durham, Mid
dlesex, and Cornwall—that its amount is probably
understated at £500,000 a year. Every one who
stops at Morley's Hotel, Trafalgar Square, that
great (and expensive) American if house of call,"
sees the immense façade of Northumberland House
fronting him on the Strand and Charing Cross.
Every American knows Halleok's poem of Alnwick
Castle, the subject of which is the principal country
residence of the Northumberland family—whose
family name, be it known, is only Percy by adop
tion, Sir Hugh Smithson, a Yorkshire baronet, hav
ing married the granddaughter of the 11th and last
Earl of Northumberland, and assumed the surname
and arms of Percy. Having the use of her vast
wealth and influence, he played his cards so well
ID to be oreated Knight of the Garter by George IL,
and Earl Percy, and Duke of Northumberland,
early in the reign of George 111. The second
Duke, who died in 1817', once pressed George 111.
to give Lim a vacant -darter, saying " I eau the
Bret Percy who ever asked for this honor, without
obtaining it." The King, who shared his nobles'
dislike to the pride and ostentation of this upstart
Duke, sharply respended, it Vou are the first Smith
son who ever was in a condition to ask for it."

PITTSBURG LANDING, TENNESSEE,
April 19, 1862.
For rumors, in all their glory, go to a camp.
NMI', in my life, did I encounter a state of society
so rile with rumors of all kinds as a military camp.
There are reasons enough for this, to be sure. Sol
diers, whose lives are constantly imperilled, who may
at any moment be called into a deadly Maid,
living, as they are, in the constant presence of a
watchful, relentless foo, are keenly susceptible to
rumors of an attack or an advance; and the fact
that they are all necessarily kept in profound igno
rance, as far as possible, of the actual elate of affairs,
makes them all the more eager for reports, and all
the more liable to believe in them. Prisoners and
deserters who are taken are always furnished with
an abundance of the wildest stories, and though
their accounts are notoriously unreliable, they are
caught up and magnified, and believed, until some
thing else comes along to efface the old impression,
and furnish a new basis for description and disap
pointment. Thus, in the face of a foe, our brave
men are in a continual state of anxiety and alarm,
which is much more harassing than an actual bat
tle; and when, after all. a greet battle d oes come, and
two or three days of the wear and tear of fighting
is enperadded, what wonder that one-third of those
who have escaped wounds and death are sick in
the topitel, or unfit for duty? Those who hear of
groat battles, and admire from afar the heroism of
our troops in the field, do not know one-half the
story. The miserable, debilitating diarrhon, the
terrible °ideal of the chills and fever, which most
of our soldiers experience, more or less, are enough
to prostrate the energies of any man, and it is in
the face of difficulties of this nature, more perplex
ing and persistent than our wily foe, that the bat
tles of Donelson and Pittsburg Wete fought.
But the proneness of military men to accept and
rely on rumors and camp gossip is even more con
spicuous in matters which relate to their personal
reputation, or that of their friends. The military
are noted for sensitiveness, which, indeed, is a na
tural result of their legitimate ambition, and of
the thousand chances by which so delicate a thing
as 'a military reputation may be made or loot. This
trait runs from the highest commissioned officers
down to the lowest nos-commissioned officers.
There is not a promotion from corporal to brigadier
general that does not dissatisfy somebody. The
fOltlinato; or ; as you plow, unfortunate recipient
of the honors is immediately angled with all man
ner of abuse and slander. His less successful rivals
seem to take a personal spite against him, and
though the good.fellowship and the scprit rle tarp.*
of military men is notorious, it is by no means so
harmonious and unalloyed as we are apt to believe.
The splendid efficiency of the armies of both the
Napoleons to which ours tears agreatresemblauco,
was often seriously endangered by the quarrels of
the marshals of the empire; and their jealousy of
each other is well known to be one of the most per
plexing of the many incongruous elements which
the present astute Emperor has to deal with.
In a despotic country like France, such things
do but little harm, and have but little practical
effect; but in our country, where we have a press,
the freest of the free, one of its most unfortunate
results is the publicity it gives to these wild and
baseless rumors. Inexperienced newspaper re
portm tar penny-a-liners, anxious to fill up their
sheets, seise with avidity upon everything likely
to prove sensational, whether it be true or false,
and send it off post haste to be printed. They
swarm around the quarters of colonels god bri
gadier generals, hear all the camp gossip of their
friends and retainers ; even pick up the epinione
and notions of- subordinates, who necessarily know
nothing of the state of affairs previous to the
tie, and could have seen but little of the actual
conflict, and swallow them entire, as though they
were law and gospel. The result is that the news
men are filled with the most ridiculous accounts
of this battle of Pittsburg, and as they come back
to us affect the soldiers with every variety of emo
tions, from laughter to profanity. I never quite
understood, before I came with the army, how it
could be that the more I used to read of a battle
the lees I understood it ; but now I see very clear
ly. Added to this, in regard to the battle of Pitts
burg, sundry newspapers seem to have had
private griefs to avenge. As this is the greatest
battle yet fought in the war, and as a great deal of
misapprehension seems to exist in regard to it, per
haps it will not be out of the way for me to state
the facts about some of the loading points.
In the first place, then, many minds are greatly
" exercised" about the "surprise." There was no
surprise. Both parties bad been long occupied in
miming beeps, near this point, the rebels by rail
road, at Corinth, and we by water, at Pittsburg.
They got the largest force here first, and that is all
about it. Our flanks are and were protected by im
passable creche. The orders were explicit not to
bring on a battle until our reinforcements had come
up. Therefore, though we knew on Friday that
the enemy was near us in force, our pickets were
not thrown far out, as that would tend to provoke
a battle, for which we were not ready. Now our
front line was attacked. It was defended obsti
nately for several hours, until the whole force of
the enemy wag directed against oar left wing, with
the object of forcing their way to the landing. A
half or quarter of a mile in front of the land
ing a stand was nude, which was success
ful, and the position combined two ad
vantages, for it gave a clear sweep for the
artillery for a long distance, and oontiacted our
lines. Our line at first was four miles long. Of
course, 40,000 men were not going to defend such a
line against 80,000. We must have fallen back
anyhow. Our last stand was successful, and our
position would have been secure for several days
without reinforcements. This whole state of things
was anticipated long before the battle, and some of
the more timid of the division commanders pro
posed to fortify ; but this was resolutely opposed
by Generals Grant and 860/114/031, 'because of the
bad moral affect it would have on the men and on
the country; and then the experience of the world
shows that when raw volunteer troops throw up en
trenehments aral Us. entrenchment° are taken LIM
spirit of the army is gene, and the whole are taken
prisoners. Again, the result shows that the rebels
were wrong in attack Aug WS as they did. Our
flanks being secure, they Could only drive us to
bay; and it is the opinion of many that, even if re
inforcements had not come, we should, by attack
ing them the next morning, have bean sere of vie=
tory. So much for the surprise. It is all bosh.
Then a few other papers devote themselves to
abusing General Sherman, because of his unfortu
nate remark, some months ago, that it would take
200,000 men to conquer Kentucky. They accuse
him of everything they can think of. It is entl-
oiont to say that Gen. Sherman is highly esteemed
in the highest yrs/stem here, as a thorough soTtriler
and a gallant man, and that his INlTitiell have helm
fully and warmly aektiovriedged, both by General
Ilaßock and General Grant. But some newspaper
men got snubbed by him, and must vent their petty
spleen in print, or heedlessly alloy themselves to
bo used as the medium of the private malice of
others. I don't suppose General Sherman cares a
straw, but some of his frielAS are raving and tearing
about it in the most insane manner.
General Grant, too, has his share of this annoy
ing and unenviable notoriety. The tong telegraphic
despateb sent to the Herald immediately after the
battle is probably supposed, by the newspapers, to
have been connived at by General Grant, though
any man of sense could have seen that it was full
Of wicked and absurd lies, which no military man
would have allowed to go out. The enormous ex
aggeration of our lees, and the ridiculous canard
about sending the body.guard to the front of five
regiments, and charging along the whole line, were
too much even for the Herald, and I understand
the sprightly youth who invented that despatch has
been recalled. But General G rant had nothing to
do with it. The reporter slipped off to Fort Henry,
the terminus, at that time, of the telegraph, and
sent off the despatch in some surreptitious manner,
known only to the tribe of James Gordon Bennett.
When it appeared in the newspapers, General
Grant and his whole staff were as much surprised
as any one. Then another paper says General
Grant was not on the field until 11 o'clock, " after
all these disasters bad happened." This is utterly
false, as hundreds of gentlemen can testify. lie
was here soon after eight, having started from Sa
vannah, whither he had gone to meet General Buell,
as soon as be heard the firin g . The report is exten
sively circulated, alto, that Grant eray in
toxicated on the day of the battle, and if it is not
in print it soon will be. So baseless and malignant
a slander ought to be met before it gains too much
credence, It is utterly without foundation. I net
enabled to state, on the authority of his friends
and neighbors, and particularly of one gentleman,
whose character is siguarantee to a large circle of
acquaintances, both in civil and military Ufa, of
truth and honor—who has enjoyed the most inti
mate intercourse with General Grant fur the past
three months, having accompanied him in all his
battles,jouzilioye, and reconnoissances, and being per
competent to make the statement of his own
knowledge—that General Grant is, and always has
been, a strictly temperate man, and never has been
known to drink half a dozen glasses of intoxicating
liquor since the war commenced. I know that his
appearance is that of a temperate and healthy
man, and I also know that he is highly appreciated
by General Nalleck, both for his private character
and his abilities as a soldier. Can it be believed
that General Ilalleck would, in a department where
be is almost supreme, allow groat battles to be
fought by a man who got drunk en any battle-field?
This same slander was started at Fort Donelson,
but it soon died out. Then it was invented by a
quartermaster, whom Grant had disgraced for pecu
lation. This time it arose, from a newspaper nor.
respondent, who knew he was lying.
row, all these things are ephemeral, and of no
practical importance, to be sure, but it is certainly
very painful and atesy , lng both to the men abused
. and their families, to have such services as they
render in bloody battles, and a long harassing
campaign, requited by misrepresentation and abuse.
General Sherman is an able and brilliant military
man, ambitious, I suppose, of course, but entirely
worthy of whatever honors he may have obtained,
or may hereafter obtain. Gen. Grant is a modest, un
assumingman, who simply desires to do his duty, and
who does what he is told to do with an energy and a
promptness, which has not yet been paralleled in
the army, and whose only desire is to see the war
tbroUgh, and then go back to Galena and sell hard•
ware and leather. He has been successful, and
" that's what's the matter." It is astonishing how
difficult it is to please everybody. When McClellan
did not move, and was going to conquer the enemy
without a great battle, all the papers shouted for
blood. Now, when we strained every nerve, and
performed prodigies of transportation and foroed
marches, to concentrate an army where we could
give our enemy battle, were attacked by an over
powering force before we were quite ready, fell
back and contracted our lines, and then got up
in the morning and whipped the enemy, two to our
one, thoroughly, soundly, so that he confesses that
he cannot hold his position without additional re
inforcements, they cry out about yeast° of life and
all that.
The long and shot-! bf it IS, that sonata newspa
pers have an idea that we were defeated on Mon
day, and that a great disaster hapnetted to our
arms, and they are conscientiously endeavoring to
find out who is to blame, This is not the correct
idea, and it is a great pity it has gone out. The
Southern people, both on this and the other side of
the water, will take great comfort from the exagge
rated accounts of our disasters which N . K.0 3 911
papers are sending abroad. We ought to let them
tell that part; and not rival them in misrepresent
ing it. It is doubtful if we ever again get such an
elegant crack at them. Perhaps results may prove
that {bib is the Waterloo of the war. At any rate,
our generals are perfectly satisfied for the present.

of them throwing away their arms. A num - mt. - of them

our men.
The nature of the htiug prttty thickly
wooded—prevented one troops from forming in line, and
they moved by the flank, in columns of four deep. The
column was led by a regiment of regulars, which had
been in the late action, but is mostly composed of recruits.
It was found, I beard from an officer friend, impossible
at first to bring these men andee fire, and the Eighth die

the log-house and camp of the enemy.
In the meantime a force bad been detailed to make a

command Of Col. Wood, the acting brigadier in Wal

The cannonading on the right of cur lines, which I
alluded to in the closing of my Htter at noon yesterday
as having then just commenced, was kept up with a good
deal of vigor all the afternoon. Nearly all the tiring
came from the rebel side, only a few shots being vent in
return from Otir gunboats. Why there was no more •
shooting on our' side was probably front a desire not to
interrupt the rebels in a practice that is evidently so
pleasing to them, and, fortunately, so harmless to us.
Ae in most of the shooting for days past, the enemy di

men lied their work to do, and they did it; despite the

about them, that at times seemed suffering the agitation
of the sands of Sahara under a simoom visitation. One
man was completely buried up to the neck in the dirt.

like visitations of rebel shells. Dales nom
pat*, It , Forty- fourth New York Regiment, was hit on
the back of the bead by a piece of shell Ito is now in
the hospital, and hie recovery is deemed very doubtful.
Lieut. Norton, of the Signal Corps, was knocked sense
less; but he soon recovered and resumed his direction of
the signal operators working un4er him. Those are the
only casualties occurring during the day, although I
might record a good many hairbreadth escapes.
The Place to be Taken in Twelve Hours.
The editorial correspondent of the New York Times
writes: I have Spent now two days in exploring the nure
fkobt of our pooltion. I have no disposition ;0 report
NO - 11.4 I have seen, for it could not be done without giving
information of the greatest importance to the enemy,
th •ugh I do not believe it would tend to increase their
confidence in their ability to withstand an advance. Two

PIEIVAY ready ; and second, that within twelve hours from
the time he does commence it. ho will have taken York
town with alt its guns, and make all its garrison prison

been done with a mailer boas of life than has. ever at
tended a similar bottle of equal import trice in this
country.
Actual Strength of the Enemy.
The Meek careful surveys allow that Verkown is very
attnnely defended, that the rebels have very formidable
entrenchments stretching across the approachable part
of the peninsula, that they have an immense number of
very heavy guns, with mortars, rifled cannon and colum
blade and that they have a force of not far from 10{000
nistan IMVIPPRI6b- Clotli.tester Potni, dirocß Y oppootte, and
within easy range, is strongly held, and water batteries
line the shore to prevent the approach of oar gunboats.
1 have no doubt that the possession of Yorktown will be
very eblirply contested, and if it is not the bloodiest fight
of the campaign it will be hecanse gen. Mc Aullan'a prey
parationa have been so complete as to renter resietance
hopeless.
Will the Enemy Withdraw 1
Many infer from the quiet of the rebels that they do
not mean really to contest the place, but that as soon as
the ihseituli eornmeneos they , will withdraw, I csprve t i
cannot help thinking so myself. But they certainty will
not, unless the attack is formidable enough to nvtke re
sistance hopeless. Jf Gen. McClellan Lad McDowell's
corps to co-operate with him, he could cut off their re
beat, and compel ago earrender of the whole farce,
Whether this can be done now or not remains to be seen.
Even if the rebels get away themselves, it is not believed
they can remove their artillery.

Thy Vlnkturc Qf Fort Moon,
The Wilmington (N. C.) Joutme, of Tuesday, has the
following in confirmation of the report of the fall of Fort
Macon, telegraphed from here yesterday:
.• We have just learned that the fire upon the fort was
o pe n ed at a liiiaidker before t o'clock on Vriday morning
and the engagement between the fort and the Federal bat
teries was kept up till 7 o'clock that evening, when the
fort became wholly untenable and was aurrendered as

ti All the one on the aide of the fort opposite to that
attacked were dismounted, and all but three of the gone
bearing neon the enemy's hatterieswere also dismounted.
The enemy's central battery of breaching guns was within

more distant.

haying been killed in • scout, some clays since, against

A Suffolk correspondent of the Petersburg Express,
under date of April 304 says: All were expecting to
hear something from the rirryinia this morning, but the
Norfolk Day Book is as silent as the rare upon the

What the rumors referred to in this paragraph are
may possibly be inferred from the fact that a rumor was
taken from Norfolk to Petersburg yesterday, that a very
Prominent naval alines bad !Reigned his commission.
