One of the mirthmakers hi Vanity Fair, a publication now superior to Punch, writes un der the name of Artemus Ward, a showman from Indiana. Mr. Carleton, of New York, has just published, with, many comic illustra tions; "Artemus Ward, His Book." This is a collection of the papers hero referred to, with a few added to make up a volume. No doubt, it will have many readers, for it exhi bits practical common sense, as well as a strong low-comedy manner of expression, but wo apprehend that Artemus Ward, with all his shrewdness, will soon learn, even-as Doeaticks did, that eccentricities of authorbhip, however amusing singly, make somewhat heavy reading when put together in abook—in plain words, that, in such cases, the, public feel that the Back is not equal to the sample. There is no heavier reading in the world than e jest-book,- after one has got through a half a dozen pages.. Artemus Ward, however, has made some mirth. In this volume, the best things are his criticism on Edwin Forrest in « Othello," and his free-and-easy rendition of the plot of that tragic drama; his compari son of popular lecturers with the show business ; his account of a rural celebration of the laying of the Atlantic cable; his account of a double increase in the family of Ward, and his severafinterviews with the Prince of Wales, Prince Napoleon,• and President Lin coln. The temperament of any man who can read these articles without being amused must be saturnine,. indeed. It does appear to as, let us add, that Artemus Ward gives himself a vast amount of unnecessary labor, in carefully taking pains to misspell as many words as possible. He takes care to let his readers see, in his last thirty pages, that be can spell as well as any of them, when he pleases. There may be wit in bad orthography, but we have never been able to detect it, after the closest search. No, not even in Professor Lowell's cc Biglow Papers," which are abundantly popular. Dr. Smollett, who commenced the bad-spelling system, in his cc Humphrey Clinker," has a great deal to an swer for. .He made Winifred Jenkins, an il literate waiting-maid, write letters in bad spell ing, but did not labor to spoil every word, as his successors have done. Thus Mr. Thacke ray makes one of his heroes, James Yellow plush, actually spell Jeemes for James—forget ful that a man would know how to write his own name, at least. Thus Lowell makes the Biglows put ez for as, wax for was, to say no thing of evrige for average, cherrity for chari ty, oils, for always,' and so on. All the. time, be it remembered, the Biglows are writing with such wonderful shrewdness and such un doubted Maims of general knowledge, that their ignorance of spelling shows itself as a thing impossible. In like manner, Artemus Ward has taken immense pains to spoil as many words as possible. For instance, he has to write such a plain sentence as follows, "it is a pity he could not go off somewhere quietly by himself, where he could wear red waistcoats and apeckled neckties, and' gratify his ambition S m various interesting ways without having an eternal fuss kicked up about him." This is familiar talk, such as a' person not well educated might use. Artemus .Ward, however, endeavors to raise it above common place by bad spelling, and writes .it thus, p. (79): ccit?.s, a pity he cooden't go orf sumwharo quietly by Maser, where be coed wearied weskits Ind speckled neckties, and gratterfy his anabialtun in vans interestin wase, without bavin a eternal fuss kickt up about him." For the life of us, we cannot bring ourselves to fancy that the sen tence which has neither wit nor hamor in it, in proper spelling, becomes witty or comic by having a moiety of its words changed into bad spelling. 'So, the simple exclamation, cc Fancy his feelings," put by Thackeray into the mouth of an illiterate person, has nothing, in it. It is merely a .common exclamation. Does any one imagine that it becomes delicately witty or broadly humorous by being distorted into the words Phancey his pheelinx 1" Surely, of all ways of making mirth this elaborate bad spelling is the feeblest, meanest, and most vulgar. Charles Dickens, it may be observed, bas generally avoided it. He ran into, it, a little, in his earlier writing, as in Sam Welter's conversation, but he speedily learned to es chew it, well knowing that there were other and better, and more legitimate ways of amu sing the public. Of all who have used this bad system, Smollett and Hood have had most discretion. Smollett uses it in one of his works only, where it is not very prOminenti and Hood has only occasionally introduced it, as in the letters of Martha Penny, in "Up the Rhine;" in the "Market Gardener's Letter to the Horticultural Society,"• and a very few other instances. But the idea of carrying the system through & whole volume, as in Thacke ray 's Yellow-plush Papers, in Artemus Wtr.d's articles, and in' Professor Lowell's Bigiow Papers, is quite too much of a bad thing. We cannot help thinking,'that resorting to this bad-el - felling system gives prima facie evidence . of poverty of invention or distrust of one's power of producing effects in a legiti mate manner—as a low comedian who has little' fun in him will redden his nose with ruddle to make the groundlings laugh at his face when ho could not amuse them by speak ing. We believe that the changing the spell ing 'of words, to convey as idea of Scotch, Irish, Yorkshire, Somersetshire, or Yankee pronunciation, is a poor mode of producing ef fect. If the ear would .not be particularly pleased .with any of these dialects highly ex aggerated, surely- the eye would be worried by straining over the words to try and pick sense out of them. Mace upon a time, in a' conversation with Mrs. S.' C. Hall, the Irish story-teller, we raised the point that the proper way to show the Irish character, in an Irish story, was not by spell ing the words badly; so as to give the idea of a particularly broad pronunciation, in which ais sounded ah, but by making the action cc racy of the soil," and by using the idinma tio language which the Irish themselves em ploy.' The lady, who has herself written much and well, thoroughly assented, lament ing that it was too late for her to relinquish the erroneous and adopt the proper way of coMposition. ' These remarks have been suggested by tcAr tennis Ward, His Book," . in which the bad spelling system is carried out farther than in any other—so much so as to be almost weari some from ita monotony. Short pieces; oc casionally.turning up in a public journal, may be bearable, and indeed have frequently amused us, but a collection of them in a vo lume is formidable.' At the same time, we recommend Artemus Ward to spell correctly, and thereby save himself much trouble in dis torting the English language, and put himself fairly before the public, as other •writers do, amusing or instructing them without spelling badly., We think he has the -ability.-to ..do both: . . . * Artemis Ward, Ma Book, with many comic Bins tratione. pp 264.

[For The Prose.] Allow me to suggest, through your journal, for the greater facility of sending the sick and wounded soldiers North and Baal, as well as transporting troops South without change of caria'conneetion of the BelliMore Railroad with the Trooton Railroad. By laying 250 feet of rail along James street a complete connection will be mato between Prime and Bread and : Ninth and Green streets ; from which point they could be drawn byleco motives to the Trentim Railroad depot, over the Ninth street Railroad and Richmond branch. Although this route may seem somewhat circuitous, it - would effect this much. desired object, and the connection might be wide at a email expense in a few dam to mat the present emergency. and oleo form a part of a more direct con nection to be made hereafter.

[Special conespondeuee of The Neel.] CAMP ON TIDE ()MOIL/010)11NY, SEVEN MILES 15031 HICELHOND, May 26, 1882. Yesterday morning the army advanced some three miles towards Richmond, and is now, as I foreshadowed, encamped in force on the Ohlckabontiny. Our pickets are In the swamp, through which the river runs, and our treope concealed In and behind the Snide which border the low ground. From one position rebel pickets can be distinctly seen prowling about the woods which slope up from the opposite bank. Standing In the oige of a wood, I counted, with tho aid of a .glass, near a hundred horsemen and foot soldiers, all within a mile of me. Videttes, sitting on their borne, or walking about leading them, could be reen dotting the brown sides of the recently•ploughed fields. Foot soldiers, standing beside fencemovere evidently talking over the prospects of the war, as Southern gesticulation, in all its florid noes, seas evident to the naked eye. Guards could ho seen relieving each other, advancing and retiring In [quads, being finally lost to view among the trees planted so thickly in every part of this beautiful country. Our pickets are doubtless in hailing distance of the enemy, and everythinmin camp is being preintred for the hottest kind of wcrk. PENNSYLI:ANIA. TROOPS Pennsylvania has over one hundred thoneand men in the army, fighting for the preservation of the Union, and It cannot fail to excite remark that we so seldom hear of their performing valiant deeds upon the field. A Penn sylvania regiment wee the first to plant the stare and stripes upon the ramparts of Newbern, aud Penney[ea.._ pia eoldiers fought sod won the battle of Drameaville. Both facie were mentioned by the newspaper press of the country, but beyond that nothing was said. Had it not been for the personal statement of a Norristown gentle man, the Bust capturere of Newbern would never have been known i and to this day, the energy, bravery and wisdom which secured a victory to General McCall and his troops+, has been almost entirely overlooked. Two reasons conspire to deprive Pennsylvania of the laurels her troops should win. In the erganizstion of bri gades and divisions her troops are dovetailed into otheis, being genet ally placed under commanders whose senti ments are against the State, and, in addition to this, whenever an oportunity is offered for distinction, no matter what claims Pennsylvania troops may have, they are seldom, if ever, brought into action i unless it be sea reserve, denied all chance of achieving a victory. Nutt. benefits inttances could be given of this Wastleo, wore they necessary Skirmish after skirmish has been fought, where other troops have been preferred over Pennsylva- Wane, when the latter should here been brought oat. Nay, more : when a Pennsylvania regiment has done nobly in action, though its own friends may . award it laurels, no one else will [dil it a just mead of praise. . We trust this injustice will cease. A hundred thou- Sand Pennsylvanian@ are panting for ma opportunity to bo led against the foe ; they have been months in the field, drilling day atter day, and are unsurpassed in intelligence and courage by any troops in the Uoion ranks. Bo not surprised it constant disappointment should make them a n gry ; justly angry at those who are preferred over them. When a soldier in the advance of the army bears the eeeiny's guns in front of him, and about the time he anticitiates en order to move [award, sees the rear guard brought up to gain n victory, if one is to be gained, he cannot help lafueatirig hie ill fortune. If a victory le won, New York or Now England or the Welt wins it; if a decat is suffered, New York, NONT.Boglamd, and the West unite in pouring out anathemas on the Pennsylva- Mane, who should have been is reserve to save the day. /mat evening, shells front the enemy were fired, but did no perceivable damage, generally falling short. Away off, on our left, a heavy cannonading, at intervals of about five minutes between the reports, was kept up for nearly an hour. Picket-shooting is strictly forbidden, although the advances are within short range of each other. • FROM GEN. BURNSIDE'S DIVISION.

Mr. George Francis Train recently delivered a math- ' leg lecture on Special Correspondent Russell, at the Shoe-lane Debating Ball, London. Tho question under discoesion wan, " Was President Lincoln justified in refrain, permission to the Times' correspondent to em bark with the Federal army e" Alter a severe attack upon the President atd the Administration, the audienere seemed to look upon Mr. Train for a reply in defenoe or the Federal policy, and most effectually ho did his ditty in acting as the European mouthpiece of the American I people. Two or three other speakers being on their feet, Mr. Train begged that they might be heard first, but the audience instated upon his occupying the floor. From the Loudon American we take the following report of Mr. Trainer address : Mr. Team. Mr. Chairman and gentlemen : No debate can show vigor unless there are two aides. [Ream] To- i night, thus far, there has been but one. Rumen is the pet of the Ensile/1 people, and the rebuke he hoe re ceived at Washingtou has offended you; hence commenter have been made to-night, too sweeping in their censure, too Fever° In their application, for me to lot them pass un noticed. [Hear, bear.) It is a delicate thing for a to. reiguer to attack the itonwhold gods of any nation; but those who' know me are aware that I generally express my thoughts regarilma of the cousequences to myself. I shall took at Chia question entirely through my awn eyes, .heer itabrough my own ears, scent it with my. own nasal organ—[laughter]—taste it with my own tongue. and feel it with my own hands. [Applause.) A. corporation, it is, said e hue no soul to save, or uo bottom to kick." [Loud laughter.) Ido not expect to find the former in the Times correspondent, but I will leave it to you to stm, when I Lave coat uded, whether I have not din:o ft red some sect mitre spot as a resting place for the foot of ' Linton man. [Oh! laughter; audapplease ] The new, for half a century, as the paid organ of the governing classes—[Oh!)—has consietently aboard and mierepre presettea everytbieg American. [Hear, bear) Its po licy bag been to search the criminat catenlar for the moat obscene and revolting cases of. crime, in order to portray them in tie columns as the leading characteristics of the American people. [That's so. j Out of a hundred leal era in the American papers, on commerce, education, or politics, there might have been one to title on crime; that article was at once seized neon by the Times to prove to Europe from our own mouths how demoralised a e had becenie. Vice was alwmeinserled in leaded type : Virtue was not a characteristic of Republica. By cosecant rope :M.lone of theta slanders, everything that was vile in the history of man was stamped open the American. [Oh! and hear, hear.) Americans aro generous as well as just, and you can imagine how mortified they must have been, after the warm-hearted shake -of the baud they gave your future Ring, to see the Times preach day after day against the Union and the law. [Hear, hear.] At the commeucenteet of the wet: Mr home' was mot out to describe the mcissitedes of the strife. We knew hint, as .we know all your writers; and are drat to discover their talents. Thackeray- was known in every village, and re turned to England with money in his pocket to be told when lie was defeated at Catunridge that there were only • three nen on the electoral" Het who • bed ever heard of him. [Laughtie ] Rueeell relgued supreme as the king of the correspondents, and his graphic descri ptione of Cri mean and 'lndian warfare wore familiar to us all. So many errors have been committed to-night by the speakers who have preceded me, you had better let me giro a 'hasty since at his career; first stating three dis tinct nt Relives. Russell Is au. Irishman, not an Englishman. [Hear, bear ]. Russell wee not the ' Times' correspondent in Maly, mei you ought to . know as well aml, that -it ,was poor Bowlby and not Russell who succeeded Cierk in tibias. [Hear, hear.] Nobody seems to know whether Russell was born in 1816, or 1821; - but, graduating at Trinity, he com menced smiting for the Times in 1343. Living at a SM. nation time, when O'Connell wee the Sensatiou loader, Russell became the Sensation letter-writer, end, with the exception of tbe short period from 1845 to 1847, "hen he wee on the Chronicle, he tae been chided' the Times' staff. In 1850 he became a barrister, the literary dodge ' often enteensed to open the door to good society. [Oh !]. llie gentleman Bays oh; but it is notorious that he nevem held e briefs were a wig, or gave a legal opinion. pear, titaie] lie aid what Carter Hall and Make-Peace %hackers) , did before bite—paid the hundred-pound barrister-Mem, to obtain the beat Mendi of inn West End. In 1854 , and 1855 he was the tyrant of the mum at the Crimea, and, so unfairly did ha use the means at Ide command, there are many Manors now in the British army who treat him with the seem which be deeerves. [Cries of no.]- libe attack upon the Commissary Depertment, did more to prolong the contest than is generally known. I was told, when at St Petersburg after the war, that the Emperor re ceived telegraphic despatches from London as to the wretched conditions of the shied forces, as described by. "our own correspondent," which made the Russian more vindictive and more determined, more obstinate, and stimulated them to make greater exertions to poor' down creole to the Crimea. [Hear, hear, and True.) England may thank Russell for - the additions to many a• Crimean graveyard, and many a neblo home in England lea,, been Made sad by this 'reckless trader In human re-. potation, who yeeterdey came sciveliog like a whipped schoolboy before the British people, in a three-columa attack upon the American Government, simply because that Government has enforced its orders, not against Mr. Russell only, but against all the correspondents of the world, American as well as European. [Lend cheers] France, lie forgets to mention, was the dear ally of England in the Beaten war, yet Its was refused permission to enter the French camps, although lira allied generals nate acting in concert [Applause.] The Em peror sent a special order prohibiting his entrance;inside the ranks. It was enough to see the Times play into the hands of Russia, by slandering the English army, with out libelling the French as well. President Lincoln has only followed the action of some oilier . distingaished names. Did not Sir Charles Napier refuse to take a correspondent with him,ato the Baltic? [ Yes ] - Did .not the Duke of Wellington- prohibit correspondents folloning the army In the Peninsula] '[Hear, and -Yes.] Did ho hot say that correspondeuts omelette' to be hanged who woe% comment open a g4eraler military plans 1 00 You think that the British Government would allow any newspaper correspondent, iu the employ of any other Go vernment, to criticise any of the movements - of the army on the field of battle?

[Cheers.] That year his college dubbed him LL.D. The next year lie was In India, and, in 1854... established that lamentable failure, the Army and Nan y Gazette. , And now we come more directly to the question iti debate, Ras the President justified in , his ezpuesion ? [Hear, hear.] To answer it, let me ask, are the. American people justified he - taming any lawn ' that ' they may think proper, witbout - coaikulting the London Times? [Hoer, hear, and- laugliter.] Having passed an order 'cutting 'off all .our own oor reepondents, I cannel understand 'upon wliaj ground Mr. Russell should •be an eicentlon—[hear, hear, and a voice. "Yon allow the Amertoen cotes spondente to be-there."] I tell yon leis not true, unless YOU mean that every officer Is a correspondent, and every •soldier a letter-writer, proving that education in America is on tee flood-tide of civilization: [Cheers.] In order to show yen the contemptible part this wolf In sheep's clothing tuts played [dissent] let me trace his vulpeoular course since ho lauded.

It will be remembered that, some time ago, correspondents were prohibited from following the army ; this was fol. lowed up by the Ceremonias t seizure of the telegraph offices. Here was discovered a One nest of traitors, and who do you suppose was tbe- chief r, hber in"the band 1 Why, William Iforcardltumell, thereliable correspondent of the London Times I [Hear, hoar, and Ohl] lobe 'nye • tery was at last travel, the secret tame out, and the hostility of the Times—the Secession spirit of the Government—was explained ; and the gigantic plot discovered, which already has filled many a West ern graveyard, and has reined, is ruining, and will continue to ruin, thousands in England ! The time has arrived for the world to understand that thewhole action of the Times, through its leaders and its correspondents, has bees to weigh golden sovereigns in the scale against human life and human misery. Somebody has made minform—rumor points to Rothschild and some distin guished hatnee in political life, as the accomplicee of the Times, in this nefarious plot to involve the Englleh and Americans in an inhuman war, that they might make a few more hundred thousands in the Stock Exchange. [Shame, end a voice, "You have no right to make such a statement without proof." Wee of order.) Unfortu nately, I have too much proof. Among the despatches seized by the Government, title one wee discovered : WAIIIIINOTON, Dec. 27th, half past two, P. M.—Freim W. IL Russell to Samuel Ward, New York Hotel. Act on this telegram as though you heard good news for :you and me. , ' [Hear, hear.) This, you remember WAS the crisis of the Treat affair. Russell had just obtained the Important scent from Lord Lyons, that she rebel'confmis eionerswonld be given up, and sent his orders to pur chase, Vielit'sird left, all kind of stocks in the New York market—[shame)--and to make thu speculation sure, he wrote a tel to the Times that night, to go by the next day's steamer, saying that be knew Mason and Slideil not only would Oct be given up—[thane]—but that there wee every prospect of immediate war. [Shame.) Now, I maintain that such acts are sufficient to condemn him Who tribunal of English public opinion, and to fasten upon the Times the entire responsibilit y of the terrible dis tress thatnew exiets in the marinfachtring districts—Dear, hear)—and now agitate. the mind of the London laborer and she London poor. It is well known that important despatches were suppressed by your Government for three weeks; and that important operations took place upon the Stock Exchange through Rothcbilda , broker. Reed the weak reply of the Morning' Post to the Morning Star. It is also rumored that .111 r. Peabody made, during these memorable three weeks, by purchasing American securi ties, twice as much as he has recently paid for a leader in the Times. Mr. Peabody has, however, done one act, I understand, for which I forgive him in pad, for being so bad a Union ions, and so good a Secessionist. Some yeere ago, he was black-balled at the Reform Club; as it is notorious, in this country, that you can get asythiug by paying for it, no one was surprised to hear, eince his munificent donation, that the Reform Club bad made him en honorary member. It is also stated that, in this case, kir. Peabody has proved himself too much of au Arnett: can to accept it Meant In conclusion, I may men tion the meanest and the lest act of Mr. Russell's con temptible course in America. • Weil knowing the order of the Department prohibiting all correspondents from following the army, he sneaked on board the Government trausport under the quasi pro tect', nof his American friend, General eletheibee ; and then it was that the Secretary was obliged to re-issue the order, never for a moment co:teeming that any Baguet' gentlemen would have done so mean a thing. The ;redeem. of the man out-Russells Russell. Think of him writing to-the Secretary of War to know if he (the Secretary) really meant to act on the order that he (she Secretary) issued I following it up with-an asdacity al most beyond belief, by writing to the President to know If he permitted hie Secretsry of War to take any such eciion !

(Elea hear.] I think, gentlemen, I beets succeeded in defending the Adminis tration and Mr. Ronan. glow, Rnetell went to .Pinaerica an Abolitiooist; he came back,'es most Englishmen do, a pre.elavery man. Ho went to America an a gentleman ; - he returned, after out raging all the rules of geed society, to chuckle with his employers over the fortunes that bad been made over this stock-jobbing operation. I called him a robber; is it not robbery to deprive widows and orphans, by , fright ening them into selling their stooks at ruinous prices? Is it - not Weeny to paint a lie, so that it shall resemble truth? Is It not murder no to disseminate these lies, as to prolong a contest at the coat of thourands of lives? Is it not damnable to' speculate in human item - placing pounds in the scale against human life? Is It net criminal, by the repetition of continued falsoboode, to create an animosity be tween two people, that it may be difficult to allay Ho said our mob would not give up Mason and Slidell; but when you know he slid it in order to speculate upon the Stock Exchange, you can gee what reliance could have been placed upon the report of the battles that are now taking place. He went to America bloated with the couoeit of hie own im portance. The American journalists bave tapped him, and his sudden coheres. is a well-merited rebuke to his employers. Under the impulse of champagne and good brandy, he can paint a battle scene; but how shallow, *aide from Ode, bow feeble his correspoodeuce generally appears. De Tocqueville visited America, and wrote a thatching analysis of our institutions. Russell has bad ample time to do the slime ; but, has he dyne so 'I No. What bee he told the Eeglish people of our enormone re-, sow cee?—our gigantic energy ?--our terribleresoluticer? What bag be said about our progressive agriculture? Our increasing manufacturing strength? Where has "be described. our progress In ship-building and in railways, and in telegraphs What has. he told the' English penile of one educational systems, our common - schools,' and our colleges? Whet e‘save has he written, analysing our serial and political life? Prier, in what respect bee he followed - the noble example of Da Toeque 'ale, in giving Europe a philosophical treatise on repub lican Idioms ? (Hear, bear.] Gentlemen. I have finished. In sitting down, let me say that, had I been in Washington, I would have allowed him to have folloived the army [cheers], in order to show how little we cared for his continued elanders. [Oh, hoar, hear.] But I think I hays said ebough to make you admit that President Lincoln was quite justified in not entirely con sulting William Howard Russell as to the policy of the more oelese United States of America.

At the same time, General Johnston being at Murfreesboro, on the march to form a junction of his forces with mine, was called ou to •end at least a brigade by railroad, so that We might fall on and Muth the enemy should he attempt au advance from under bis gunboats. : the call on General Johnston was promptly complied with. His entire. force was also has tened .in this direction, and by the let of April our united forces were concentrated along the Mobile and Ohio railroad from Bethel' to Corinth, and on the Mem phis nod Charleston Railroad from Corinth to luka. - • . It was then determined to assume the offensive, and strike a sadden blow at the enemy ,n position under General Grant, on the watt bank of the Tennewes, at Pittsburg. and in the direction. of Eavannah, before he woo reinforced by the army under, Gen.

About the tame lime General Johnston was advised that such an operation conformed to the expectations of the Prosi• nt. • By a raid and vigorous attack on General Grant it was expected he would be beaten back into his trans ports end the river, or captured in time to enable us to profit by the victory, and remove to the rear all the stored and munitions that would rat into our hands in such an event, before the arrival.of General Buell's army on the ectne. It due never contemplated, however, to retain the position tune gained, and abandon Corinth, tho strategic point of the campaign. !Want of proper (Aiken, needful for the intiper organi zation of divisions and brigades of en army brought thus suddenly together, and other difficulties in tho way of an effective organisation, delayed the movement until the night of the 2d instant, when it was heard from a reliable quarter that the junction of the enemy's armies was near at band ; it was then, at a late hour,determined that the attack should be attempted at once, incomplete and im 4erfect as were our preparations for such a. grave and momentous adventure. ^ -eiceordinple, that night,' at one o'clock A.

On the following morning the detailed ordera of, move ment, a copy of which is herewith marked ‘‘ A," were Issued. and the movement, after some delay,' commenced —the troops being in admirable spirits. It was extended we should be able to reach the enemy's lines in time to attack them canyon thi..f-tinstisnt. The mon, how • ever, for , the moat part, - Wein "unused to marching—the roads narrow, andxraversing a densely. wooded country, became almost impassable after a severe rain storm on the night of the 4th, Which - drenched the troops its hi volute; hence our force' did not reach the Intersection of the roade from Pittsburg and• Hamburg, In tbe immediate vicinity of the enemy. until late Saturday afternoon. • It was thee decided that the attack should be made on the, next morning, at the earliest hour practicable, in accordancowith the orders of movement—that le, in three lines of battle, the first and second extending from Owl creekort the left to -Lick creek on the right, a distance of about three miles, supported by the third and the reserve. The first lineoteder Major General Hardee, was consti tuted of his eerie, augmented on his right by. Gladden's brigade of Major General Braeg's corps, deployed in line of battle, with their respective artillery following imme diately bythemain road to Sittebnrg, and the cavalry in rear of the wings. The Second line, composed of the other troops of Bragg's corps, followed the fleet eta die lauce of five hundred yards, In the - same order as the first. The army corps under General Polk followed the second line, at the distance of abont eight hundred Pude, in lines of brigades, deploYed with their batteries in rear of each brigade, moving by the Sittiettrg road; the left wing supported by cavalry; the reserve, under Brigadier : General Breckinridge, followed closely the third line, in the game order, its right wing supported by cavalry. These. two 'corps - constituted the reserve, and wore to support the front Bees of battle, by being deployed when required on the right and left of the ,Pitteburg road, or otherwise act according to the exigenolee of the battle • At BA. M: on thefith Met, a reconnoitring party of the enemy having become engaged with our advanced pickets, the commander of the forcesgave orders to begin tbio' movement and attack as determined upon, except that Trabbe's brigade, of Breckinrid&e's division, was ,deliched and advanced •to support the left of Bragg's corps and ,line of battle,. when' menaced by the enemy, and the other two brigedes,were directed; to advance by the road to Hamburg to support Bragg's right, and at thri same time Yancey'a.:regimeht, of Polk's mm 8 1 1 ,41 13 advanced by the same roan to reinforce .the regiment of cavalry and bettery,,nf four 'pieces, already thrown for ward to watch andvfnard Grier's, Banner's, and Bei land's Fords. on Lick creek. • ' • Thirty minutes after ti &block A.

The front line.wes „engaged at once, but advanced steadily, followed in due order with roualreen intlon and eteididesk:by the other lines, 'which were 'brought en cceetively into action with - rare • skill, judg • ment, and . gellantry; by.the eeveral. corps commanders, Al . * enemy made a stand, with hie messes rallied for the.etruggle for hie encampments. Likej an Alpine ava lanche oar troops moved forward, despite the determined resistance of the enemy; until after 6 o'clock.P. la., when ;,we were in possession of all encampments between Owl and Lick creeks but one. Nearly all of , his field artillery, about thirty (30), nags, colors, and standards,. over three thousand miebners, including a &Vision cOmmendor (General Prentiss) and several brigade commanders, thousands of email arms, an immense near of subsist epee, f2rsge, and monition, of war, and o large a mo n n p of "means of transpertation--n3 the substantial fruits of a complete victery—euch, indeed; as rarely have followed the most meow:lfni battles; for never was •an army so well provided se that of our enemy. , • • The remnant of hie army bad boon driven in utter ,dis order.to the immediate ,vicinity of Vittaburg, under, the `abetter of the heavy guns of his iron-clad gunboats; sod we remained undisputed mestere of hie well-selected, ad:.

M., after having shown the highest qualities of the commander, and a personal intrepidity that inspired all arouud him, end gave resistless`impul sion to his columnist critical moments. 'The chief command then devolved upon ma, though at the time I wee greatly Prostrated and suffering ,from the prolonged sickness with which I h■d been afflicted since early in February. The reaponaibtlity was one which, in my physical conditior, I would have gladly avoided,. though cast upon me when our forces were succeiertilly pushing the enemy back upon the Tennesfee river, and though supported on the Immediate held by such corps commanders es Major Generals Polk, Bragg, and Har dee, Rod Brigadier General Breckinridge commanding the reserve. It was after mx o'clock P. M., as before said, when the enemy's het position was carried, and his forces finally broke and sought refuge behind a commanding eminence, covering the Pittsburg Landing, not more than half a mile diet/int and under the gone of the gun boats, which opentd on our eager columns a fierce and annoying fire with bhpt and shell of the heaviest descrip tion. Darkness was close at hand. Officer's and men a ere esbauated by a combat of over twelve hour° with out ford, and jaded by the march of the precodiog day, through mud and water, it was therefore impossible to collect the rich acid opportune spoils of war scattered broadcast on the field left in cur poasession, and imams ticable to make any effective dispositions for their re moval to the rear. I accordingly established my headquarters at. the church of Shiloh, is the enemy's encampment. with Major General Bragg, and directed cur troops to sleep en their arms, in such positions in advance and rear as corps commanders should determine, hoping from news re ceived by a epeeist despatch that delays bad been en countered by Gen. Buell in his march from Columbia, and that his main forces, therefore, could not reach tne field of battle In time to save General Grant's shattered fugitive forces from capture or destruction on the follow ing day. During the night the rain fell in torrents, adding to the discern:cm t and hammed condition of the men; the enemy, moreover, bad broken their rest by a discharge, at meesurNl intervals, of heavy shells, thrown from the gunboats ; therefore, on the following morning, the troops nodes my commend were not in condition to cope with an tonal force of fresh troops, armed an equipped like our advereary, in immediate possession of his depots, mid ebeltered by such en auxiliary ae the enema's gnoboata.i About six o'clock on the morning of the 7th of April, however, a hot Area artillery and musketry opened from the enemy's Quarter on our advanced line, assured me of Disjunction of his forces, and soon the battle raged with a fury which eatisaed me that I was attacked by a large ly superior force.. But from the onset our troops, not withstanding their fatigue and losses from the battle of the day before, elhibikd the most cheeriug, veteran-like steadiness On the right and cootre the enemy was re pulsed in every attempt he made with his heavy column , in that Quarter of The field j on the left, however, and nearest to the point of arrival of his reinforcements, he drove forward line after line of his fresh troops, which were met with a resolution and courage of which our country may be proudly hopeful. Attain and again our troops were. ttrotight to the charge, invariably to air the positiontudierue, invariably to drive hack their foe. But hour by hour thus opposed to en enemy constantly reinforced, ourzrankt were per eeptibly thinned under the unceasing, withering fire n/ the enemy, and by-twelve merldian.eightosn boars of hard - lighting had email,' exhausted. a large number, my last reserves had necessarily been diepozed of, and the enemy wee evidently receiving fresh reinforcements after each repulse ; . accordingly. about ono P. ht., I de termined to withdraw from eo unequal a conflict, securing such of the results of the - victory of the day before as wee then practicable. °Moms of my staff' were immediately despatched with the neceseary orders to mate the best dispoqtiou for a deliberate, orderly withdrawal from the field, and to collect and poet a reserve to meet the enemy, shuild he attempt to pull) after us. In this connection I will mention particularly my adjutant mineral, Oolonel Jor dan, who wee of much assistance to me on this occasion, as he bad already been on the field of battle on that and the preceding day. About i o'c.ock P. M. the lines in advance, which bad repulsed the enemy in their last fierce assault on our left and centre, received the orders to retire; this was done with uncommon !steadiness, and the enemy mode no at• tempt to follow. 3he line of troops establiebed to corer this morainal bad been disposed on a favorable ridge comet sliding the •ground of Shiloh Church ; front this position our artil lery played upon the woods beyond tor a while, but utem no visible enemy, and whbont I-, ply. Sons s .tlefled that no serious nursuic would be etternetid, this last line was withdrawn, and never did iiinpa ti battle-field in better order q even the stragglers fell into the renal, and marched off with those who bad stood more steadily by their colors. A second position was taken up about a nide in rear, where the approach of the enemy wilt waited for nearly an boor ; but no effort to follow wall made, and only a small detachment of horsemen could .be seen at a distance from this last position, warfly ob serving our movements. derangiog, through MY staff ollkers, for the comple tion of the movements thus begun, Brigadier General Breckioridge wag left with his command LB a rear guard to bold the ground we had *recoiled the night preceding the diet battle, Just in front of the intersection of the Pittsburg and Bamberg roade, about four miles (rem the loaner place, while the reel of the arm, passed to the rear in excellent order. On the followingday General Brecklmidge fell back about three miles to Mickey's, which position we con tinued to bold, with our cavalry thrown conelderably forward In immediate proximity to the battle-field. Unfortunately, towarda i Ight of the 7th instant it be gan to rain heavily ; thin continned throughout the night; ,the roads became almost impassable in many places, and much hardship and suffering now awned be fore all theregimenia reached their encampments. But despite the heavy casualties of the two eventful days of the Gth and Tth of April, this army iemoret confident of ultimate siciens than before. its encounter • with the enemy. To give more in detail the operations of the two bat tles, resulting from the movement on Pittsburg, thin now attempted, most have delayed this rep'rt for weeks, and interfered materially with die Important 'duties of my position ; but I may be permitted to say that not only did the obstinate conflict for twelve hours oci Sun day, leave the Confederate army masters of the battle field, and our advotsary beaten, but we left that field on ba next day only after eight hours' incessant battle, with a superior army of fresh troops, whom we bai re pulsed in every attack on our lines—so repulsed and crippled, indeed, as to leave it unable to take the field for the campaign for which it was collected and equipped at such enormous expense, and with such profnaion of all the appliances of war. These successful events were not achieved, however, as before said, without severe lon— a loss not to be measured by the number of the slain or wounded, but by the high social and personal worth of so large - a, number of those who were killed or disabled, cl inudiugthe commander of the forces, whose high qua lities will be greatly missed in the mementoes campaign 'lntending. I deeply regret to record, also, the death of the Iron. George M. Johnson.

I allude to the fact that some officers, non-conitniesioned ofllcers, and men, aban doned their colas early to the Brat day to pillage the etiptnred encampments; others retired shismofolly from the Beld on both dnir, while the thunder of cannon and the roar and tattle of musketry told them that their brothesevrtrebting slangbiered by the fresh legious of the nervy. I have mitered the names of the most con spietious.opon this roll of laggards and cowards to be published in orders. IL rt mains to state that our loss in the two days in the killed outright was 1,728. wounded 0.012, missiag 050, maims an aggregate of cssualtiea of 10,6',43. This sad list tells in simple language of she stout fight mode by our countrymen in fronted' the rude long chapel at Shiloh, especially when it is known that on Mandan from eibauetlon and other causes, not twenty thousand men on our side could be brought into action. Of the losies of the enemy I have no exact knowledge. Their newspapers report it as 'eery heavy. Unquestion ably It was greater, even in proportion, than our own, on both days ; for it was apparent to all that their dead left on the field outnumbered ours two to one. Their casualties, therefore, cannot have fallen many short of 20,C00 killed, wounded, prisoners, and miss ing. Through information derived from many sources—in cluding the newspapers of the eneme—we engaged, on Sunday;the divisions of Generals Prentive; She:enact, Barlbnt, McOlernand, and dmith, of 9,000 men oath, or at least 40,999 men.
