SATURDAY . SEPTEMBER 20,1862. LETTER -FROM CINCINNATI. Special Correspendeneeof The Prem.] . CINCINNATI, September 16, 1882. It Is difficult to tell what is going on or what is tn go 811."Sotre tell one tale and others tell another, and all sorts of rumors are afloat Si this thing and:that thing. Some say the rebeli have retired entirely to a spot four miles beyond Florence. leaving -only a squad to annoy our frc nt and keep upthe semblance of an attacking force; others say that the enemy are really in force only some: three or; four Miles from our pickets and between them , - all, it is very natural to arrive at the conclusion that :they don't any of theme know anything about the matter, and it is a matter of, wonderment that our officials allow thtmselves to repose quietly in elegant confidence with such scant and mureliable intelligence about an enemy inmlediately in their front that only a few days ago was believed to be very formidable. e just d ilioLh. from . the front oLei:iine ti e rn , e a s bi t i h n e t Fort follicle% Everything is serene there, and from the ineerschanme, no boys lay around and smoke necessity of their being colored, no one would eVer_Eli_W note that these men were out With fiteratoe,,.. I saw very few (Opera about, the most of o them M:Y bring city—probably to refresh themselves with a cobbler, and geed dinner. .Tho rebels are throwing.up entrench merits two miles and .a-half beyond Fort Mitchell, so the pickets say; mind, I don't state it as a fact. The pickets say they can see , the men in large numbers at work. So much credence is given to alit report, that Ave comps. nice were sent out as a picket, where there was only one befete, and the whole force has been doubled for, picket duty. Now, to give the other side. A gentleman of Flo rence informs me that he has just, come in from that place, where lie lively, and that the rebels are sixteen miles. the other side of that town, and the road from Fierence to Covington is as free from the presence of rebels as any road leading north from Cincinnati for the sane dietweee. Re also says that the rebels, after they, found out the preparations that bad been made to wel come them to Cincinnati, entirely gave up, the idea of, ever visiting the city ; and only kopt nem appearance to keep our troops snugly within our lines and behind the fortifications while they plundered the surrounding cumin try, and carried off whatever would be useful to them. This it very likely the case, and with the force now bare, and also the amount of Cavalry, our generals ought to know to a certainty where the enemy are, and to keep potted-as to what their intentions are, whether to steal, scare folks, or hart them. 11 . .EBRL BATTZRY ON THE OHIO Runlet's' have been current all dig, and believed by many, to the effect that a rebel battery had been planted on the Ohio, commanding the river at some point below ' here, and that the mail boats bad been stopped on 'tiler route; brit following the rumor closely, to ascertain how far It could bo supported by anything Aetna' or tangible, . I gave up, and consider the, whole thing false, and only wonder that batteries have not been planted on the river, both above and below, for the benefit of the enemy. I was informed by a member of Lien. Wallace's staff, this afternoon, that the definite and latest information as to the whereabouts of Buell and Bragg was that Buell was at Bowling Gretn with an army of 42,000 effective fighting men, and that Bragg, with his army, was at Glasgow. These places are not very far apart, and a collision between the two armies is confidently expected during this week. But as Bragg has succeeded In working to windward of Buell, so that he is between hlm and Kirby Smith, and can frustrate the design of his getting in behind the tatter, which . was Upon• as a 'fixed fact, and thug placing Smith between two fires. and use taw up at once, it wilt be rather optional with Bragg Whether he will fight or not, even if Buell seems so inclined, and, from hie previous character, there is not much probability that he will fight at anything like an even ohan n 3, so long as Le can onietly subsist in Kentucky unmolested. By this event of Bragg's being on hand to protect Kirby Smith from any advance on hie rear, there le' every chance of his setting his army down, and entrenching thcm at Lexington, to feed and maintain his army this falloff from Blue. Grass, Kentucky. There is no more prospect of a move forward here, than there Is of an ad vance upon our position by the enemy. The rebels have gained all, they wanted to gale, the possession or the Blue Grass regions, which are full to overflowing with all that is necessary for the maintenance or an army— grain, forage, fat cattle, and liege. And the great ma jority of the people have' always been Southern gym pathizere ; now they are open and armed Secessionists. Many of the prominent political leaders who have showeo wet. Inns.

If ft isn't, it ought to be. The impression that Generals Morrie and Retrials were still in command of divisions over the ri ver, seems to incorrect;be they were only there a day or so. For some reason thee° two distinguished gentlemen did not seem to agree very well with General Lew Wallace, and they would not remain. There is still , too ,much jealousy' among our commanders for the well-doing of the army. The division generals are Gen. A. J. Smith, Gan. Green+ Clay Smith, who became Quite celebrated for his vigorous ➢u:euit of the noted John Morgan, when Morgan made hie fl,ret raid into Kentucky, some two months ago, and Brig. General Gorden Granger, who is from Gen. Curtis' army, and was.at Pea Bidgo. He brought Hve regiments of the Pea Bidgers, and two batteries of artillery, that had teen service along with him. among the o;har germrals are Generals Lane and Staahope, and seam colonels are •atting as commanders of brigades. Brig. General Judih, for awhile commanding all the forcce at Covington, was relieved of command for drunkenness, and it is reported he is still under arrest. Two gentlenten arrived in the city last night who had succeeded in making their way through from the Gap. They brought *portant letters to Eisler Gen. Wright from Gen. liforgao. They briog information up to the 7th of this mot tb; atd Rai there could be no apprehen• pier; about the force there i they are abundantly able to take care of themselves, which they are doing, by making continual attache - and incursions upon the enemy, for miles, Is all directions, In wbioh they • always come cff right tide up. They represent the East Tennessee troops as being particularly active and fearless, and at every Opportunity they try to get satisfaction out of the Sasses sion'devila who have forced them away from their homes "and families.. r.

It hinniv sic'ertained.that a force of the rebel army is at Hamilton, on the Kentucky shore, nine miles below Rising- Ban. Ahoy cumber about six hundred, and, be sides being well armed, they have several pities of artil. lery.• The gunboats cruising in that vioinity will shortly dislodge theni: The 'rebels referred to, haVe ,come from Verona, and I , doubtlesg intend, if 'possible, to do such damage to peat.. leg boats ae maybe within their - power.

BATTLE•FIELD 0' SIIARPSI3CIiG, Wedeeedey evening, ;Sept 17 1862. The greatest battle of the war was fought to- day, last ing from d aylight till dark, and closing without decisive result. The whole forces of AlcOlellan and Lee were engaged for fourteen .hours. • Two hinodred thousand men have tone': with the utmost determination on both sides Feither can claim a complete" victory, but Oen. iticCjellan has partially carried the rebel position, ho d irk moat favorable ground fur renewing the attack, and holding all the ground which was gained at any time during. the tight. All our own dead and woanded, and many of the enemy* are in our hands. On the left of the rebel position, Rooker, Sumner c and Franklin have crossed -Antietam creek, and have driven the enemy from the ground they chose to cover their flise.ka in front of our batteries, and troops have steadily advanced, and occupy to• night a range of hills consider ably bryond•those tint taken. - _ ' On the rebel right, they have lost the bridge over the creek, which was carried after a• hard fight, and Burn side hes crossed - with all his forces. The result of the day's fight, therefore, is that the rebels have everywhere tort ground, their position is contracted, both flanks at tacked with success and their rear and only line of re treat seriously threatened. ' After the brilliant victory on Sunday, at South Kona- tato, near Modletavin, Etc pushed his army rapidly forward, sending cavalry and artillery out on the 11 agerstown road, Burnside through Fox Gap to the Viacitehr road,.....__ . !___m_al.. , the rem of his forcee through burg.' ' • .13her_ps- On the crest .of the hill this side of Sharpsburge— enemy were discovered iu great force. Their troops had been brought down from Hagerstown up from Harper's Ferry, atd part of the army held in Virginia as reserve. Lee, Jackeon, Longstreet, Hill, and all the beet generals l.ft with than were there, and with all their beet troops. Except occasional artillery contests, the armies faced each other in quiet during the rest of Monday: On Tuesday there was no movement on our aide till t ward night. The rebels bad kept batteries in position, but their infan try wee withdrawn from view, and it was atilt uncertain whether they were retreating or reinforcing. THE BATTLE COMMENCED About four in the afternoon of Tuesday, Hooker was ordered to cross Antietam creek, at the upper ford on the right, with his whole corps, attack ths enemy's left and occupy a position on their flank. He crossed with out opposition, sent for - ward cavalry skirmishers who were speedily driven beck, and then, advancing with his whole force about six, took poseeeston of strong ground, di se to the rebels' kft, and Immediately became engaged with artillery and infantry. Darkness ended the fight with slight lose on either side, Hooker carrying and hold ing the woods from which the enemy's fire first came. Ths i ge were constant sierras during the night, the hos • tile pickets being clots to each other ell along the line. latlY in the evening the rebels took to Sgbtiog among .theineelvee, and several heavy, volleys. were delivered ...there before they discovered their mistake. • THE PIGHT•ItEIiNWED ON WEDNESDAY. ' 'At daybreak the SE ht was renewed suddenly and vehe mently, both :idea opening fire together The number and position of the rebel battaritie the evening before had dlsoloeed that they were in great force on the right. 'sod word bad been sent to McClellan to advance Suinner's corps during the night. ltdid Lot arrive on the field till 9in the morning. IticOlellan'e plan of battle was briefly ea fokows:ooker vras to cross the creek on the right, as before stated ; 6umner, ffranklin, and Mansfield to co. operate with and sustain his attack. In flout the batte rice were to push for ward with infantry supports, and an effort to be made to carry the heights on the left. Barn side was to °roes the.creek by the bridge and attack the itbel right, moving on bbarpsburg also, which was in their rear, and thus cut off their retreat. Porter and dykes were held in reserve. The plan, if eucceeafat, Must rttrilt not merely in the defeat, but the destruction or atitienderof the rebel army. The ground h peculiar. THE REBEL POSITION The rebel line was formed on a crescent. shaped ridge, which fn front elopes down into an undulating relies, Ir regularly broken by connecting ranges of hills. Behind. the crest the rebel forces lay in uneven and strong p:ei tone, sheltered by ridges and hills, and especially strong on the flanks. Antietam creek, a stream too deep to be forded, except in very few places, sweeps by the bate of their position, and protected it from assault. McOrellan's forces were first formed in front, after wards thrown to the right and left. There Is little or no_ ground on our aide mint in height to the rebel position. Hooker sustained, unaided, the attack on the rebel left force nearly four b are. Hie line had been formed the /dad before, and fought, today in the same order. Ricketts' di.vhdon was on the left, Meade's Pennsylvania Reserves in the centre, Doubleday's division on the right. These terms are, of course. to be understood as . referring only to Hooker's line, not to the whole field There wee artillery at all points. Meade gained ground in his first attack. . PEN. MANSFIELD MORTALLY WOUNDED. Ricketts also went forward through the woods in his front, and Doubleday, with his guns, held front against a heavy cannonade. Meade advancing, dually mot a heavy body of fifth troops thrown suddenly and vigor. ously against bins, and was driven back over part of the ground be had met won. Ricketts' line was at the same time hard-pressed, and became deserted. Mansfield, who had come over the creek the night before, was ordered into the woods. to Ricketts' support, and Rartsfill's bri gade, part of Doubleday 's command, was sent to sustain Meade. Mansfield took the greatest part of his troops to Riddle bele, but they were unable to extend their line, and in the effort to push forward - big' men, General Mansfield was mortally wounded. General liartsuff advanced' to the relief of Meade, with the 12th and 13th Massachusetts, and another regiment. , The -Peonsylvaaia troops were retiring in haste, and some confusion. Bartmnft eriztet-a - nrta 4 o-io front of the fled, over which the rebels were pressing, and held ft in eplan `did stale for more than an hour, against a greatly supe rior attack. Ms men behaved moat gallantly, standing on this exposed ground, tiring steadily. and never waver ing once. • GEN. TIARTSUFP . WOUNDED Gen. Harteuff was Tarr soon severely wounded. His troupe retained their position, and finally, by the pre cision and rapidity of their tire, compelling the enemy to retreat instantly, advanced in pursuit, while they had been engaged. Hooker ordered up trawford'as and Gor den's brigades* to their support. Harteuff retained the advance, and Orawford and Gordon followed in support. A rebel battery on the right, which had been most an nisi ins by an enfilading fire, wall about, the same time silenced by Doubleday's gun, end Hooker ordered his whole line forward. GENERAL HOOKER WOUNDED The rebels were driven through the corn-field again into the woods beyond, where they could not easily be dislodged without artillery. Gon. Hooker, who all the morning bad kept himself under fire, and generally in the hottest of it,-rode forward to examine the ground in .front, in order to plant a battery. " As he rode up the bill he became a conspicuous mark for the rebel sharpshoot ers ; their fire increased very soddenly, and General Hooker was wounded in the left foot, a bullet 'passing en tirely through It. The wound was excessively severe and painful, and he was compelled to leave the field.. Three men were ehot doWn by his side at the same moment he was wounded. • SCIIINBR ARRIVES ON THE FIELD Up to this Utile the attack has been a success. The hardest fought grottid was in the undisputed possession of Hooker's troops, and his last order, as he was berne from the field, was, that Crawford , a and Gordon's bri gades should immediately advance,`and carry the woods to the tight. The whole line had gone forward with the" wildest cheering, and everything looked like' a complete and speedy success. At this fortunate moment General Sumner arrived on the field at the head of his veteran carve. Parsuing sheferward movrtuent, lie led his men" immediately against the rebel line, and to the support of! Crawford. Sedgwick's division; the flower of the Penin sula army, advanced on the right, RiChardson and Drench at a considerable interval of the loft Tho that volley from Redgwick's troopswaa tremendous, but Asa, anewercd by a ,beavier one. CIIAW/oRD'S Linn BROICEN. • Cranford bad found the rebels In great force in the woods, and was already in need of assistance. Sedg wick's flank also becathe exposed on the left in COMO. detente of the distance between him and the other divi . rion. The rebels perceived their advantages, and at the same time pressing Crawford and attacking on Ssdg wick's, broke Orawford's line, which fell back in °onto sion'on Bedgwick. Tee 34th New York, on the left, was forced to give way at the same time, az.d the woods were yielded to the enemy.

AFFAIR BY BURNSIDE. •- - - At 4 o'clock McClellan sent orders to Burnside to croee at once, at all hazards, and•Osptare' or silence the battery in front. . The bridge was captured in gallant style, brit with loss of Colonel Kingsbury . and WO killed and wounded. Burnside, when once across; advinced on the rebel right, along .tbe. hharpsborg road and up the slopes of the. hill.

Our attack on the left having ceased for the time, Sumner end Franklin were ordored by McClellan to hold , their own, and the advance of BUrnside was relied on to ' decide the day.

To Alex. McAndrew, Prerident, and Robert 'Cochran, Secretary of the Paisley Parliamentary Reform As. sociaticm GEHTLItaIRN: I have bad the pleasure or receiving the liberal and courteous address of the Paisley Parliamen tary Reform Association, and have submitted it to the President of the United States and the heads of the De- I ailments of this Govermootnt Engaged in maintaining against an unprovoked and causeless eeditisn, a Government a hose principle is the political equality of the members of the State, and whose policy is peace and good will towards all States and aS men, it has been a disappoiatenent• to /earn that our struggle is at best a matter of indifference to the Go vernments of Europe, while is isgenerallyi.epresenteel to us that the nations of that continent sympathize, not with us, but with the insurgents, andetesire nothing , less than our national ruin. If these representations ere tine, it is a new and melancholy illustration of thedispo- Sidon of mankind to seek to do harm to each other et the coal of common eacrillces and sufferings. For your better appreciation of the character of this. and for your most generous wishes for the safety. Welfare, and happiness of our country, you will please to accept the thanks cf the people of the American conti nent. I speak in the name of the continent, because I know that the cause of the United States is accepted by ell the American nations as one involving tiltimakdif tbeir.eatety and their destiny. • he North does not, however, stand alone in uphold? 'leg the beneficent Government. The West is - equally loyal and oosally devoted to our institutions, and equaltr! energetic in defor.dirg thino. Nor is the Etontn, as yon eni -to imagine, altogether insensible cr unfaithful. Time, which always subdues passions otherwise uncon trollable, is gradually freeing that region from the ter rore of the ineurrection, and preparing , the way for its return to its constitutional duties, and for the restoration ()Motional unity and peace. It is an occasion of sincere•regret for the people of this country that nations, for whom we have cherished only, sentiments of friendship and affection, are disturbed In their industrial occuratioes in consectnence'of this cuf happy civil strife. We find in this circumstance a nett *no distinct motive to bring the war too safe and oneedif • conclusion. Nations, in modern times, are not absolute ly tridipendent of-each other. On the contrary, they constitute a general society. If all Europe could not only think but speak a: you do, there would soon be no civil War or insurrection here. In return, Europe would _ have our 'suffrages and , influence for peace-and harmony everywhere. • - - Phave the honor to be, gentlemen,. • • • .• 'Your obedient servant, WILLIAM II SEWARD • • • The Children of Shiites.
