001. Theo: Hyatt :
MY Cgs's N WEND: I have just heard that a newspaper
in yew vicinity has thrown out Imputations against your
loyalty. To those of us who hate known you long-and
Will—who have convened with you so often on the ex
citing topics of the day, and found you sympathizing
with us to the full in everything that related to our
Government and this wicked rebellion—who have heard
your voice in the drill-room in the early days of the war,
and when we knew that each hour given to the volanteers
was an hour of sacrifice of health, then too much im
paired for the discharge of your dudes in your school
room—who knew of your desire to go personally into the
field—who bare talked with you but a few days since,
and found you abreast with the foremost supporters of
the Government, the charge is simply absurd.
No one here would have ventured or even thought of
making it; but if this note from your late pastor will bb
of any service to you in West Chatter; where you have
had no opportunity to make yourself known, you are
. More than welcome to it.
Yours, most truly,
W ILLIA.II AHEM &N.

Col. Theodore Hyatt:
Mr DEAR Bin :1 have been astounded at hearing that
'four loyally has been called in question by some of the
residents of West Oheeter. I bad supposed you had suf
fered persecution sufficient during the past year at the
bands of the Secession sympwhizers in this State, to have
Placed you far above the reach of suspicion of belonging
to that hateful band - of bad men. I never had toe honor
of your acquaintance till those persecutions .brought, us
together. I cannot imagine bow any, the slightest, Sus
picion should attach to you, for I am sure that I and all
who know you in Delaware can bear , testimony that you
have always been held by our people as a man of nn
blemished patriotism and integrity.
I also learn that James Bice,'Essi , has also been sus.
pected or charged with disloyalty. I have known him
well for acme time past. He was one of my warmest,
boldest, and most reliable supporters in the memora•
ble campaign of 1860. Ifts can be possible that either you
or be is disloyal, then I confess I shall not know where to
find one true man. I shall, indeed, begin to doubt of my
own loyalty when I come to Question that of either of
you.
1 hope the community where you reside may do you
justice, to any misapprehension upon the subject.
Yours truly,

Colonel THEODORE HYATT who has lately removed
from this city to West Chester, was, many years, the
"Principal of a school here in which scholars were in
structed in the higher English branches, the classics,
and mathematics. Ho was very succeesfal as a teacher;
discerning and competent judges, from their own obser
vation, attested his ability, and commended his method.
Hie school flourished, and was as prosperous at the time
of his removal as it had ever been. His removing was
muoh regretted.
Colonel Hyatt was a professor of religion when he
came among us. During his residence here he main=
tained a consistent profession. He was active and useful
in the church, confided In as a sincere, and sympathized
with as a growing Christian
We have been surprised to hear that a suspicion has
been intimated of /As There was among us no:
more Rim mid constant supporter of the Union than
Colonel Hyatt—he was loyal from principle; - and wa • be:
ileve he continues steadfast, unwaveringly attached to
the thivernment and institutions of the United States.'

VOL. T. HYATT: My Dear Sir: I have understood'
that your loyalty to the Union and on: Government ha's
been called in Question since you have been in Chester
county. I have to side that If - there is any foundation'
for an imputation so base, that yon must have changed
wonderfully since yon left bare. I cannot look into 'your
heart, b tI I have the most thorough conviction, from
your uniform laignige and conduct, that no more loyal
man liven in Pennsylvania. indeed, I should hive as
soon trusted the education of two of my sons to a burglar
or professed gambler, as to one who sympathized with
Secession. If you want testimony to Bayport your loy

At the commencement of this wicked rebellion, he took
a decided stem in favor of its forcible suppression, and
Was active, even to the detriment of hie health, in orga

Letter from Parson Brownlow on the
•
Evacuation of Cumberland Gap.
CINCINNATI, October 15,1802.
21s flee Editor of The Press:
The-entire command of Gen.,lllorgan, save a
few who were sick, at Cumberland Gap, have reached
the Ohio river, and are now encamped there, eay about
140 miles above this city. I have now been in this oily
several day a. I have seen and conversed with generals,
colonels, majors, captains, and privates, belonging to
that command, and who are hurriedly coming and going
'to and from their present encampment, on business. I
am therefore prepared to give to your readers a state
ment upon which they may rely : Thls command, about
ten.thonesod strong, has marched 250 miles in sixteen
days, Inman) , instances making their road as they pro
gressed. 'Wry few accidents ocourred on the way One
of the wagons was upset, causing an explosion of some
shells, which wounded several men, and some two of them
fatally. As &general thing the troops corns through in
better health and condition than they were at the Gap,
Sore feet, without shots, bleeding, tired and stiffened
• limbs, hunger and thirst on the way, were their lot,
from which they are now recovering.
No such marches and sufferings have been ex perience I
by any trillion of the Unite I States army since this war
commenced. Mcrgan, the guerilla chief, with two .hon- •
send caialry, hovered around our army, and in its ad
vance, day and night, cutting trees over the road, de
dieting groiri. and burning Mille, so as to prevent their
getting supplies. The Unlou,-army,cle red out the block
•ads se they went, drove the rebels before them, and re
constructed the bridges the rebels had burned. From
tsrenty.four th forty•Mght hours on a stretch they were
withoutwater, and on most of the route they had only
scattering psols of water 'to resort to, and these were
warm and 'Middy. When they were fortunate enough to
find a mall, running stream, they had to dam it up, and
'obetrnot it at variants points, so as to get water for men
and'horees
Tpe army had been on half rations for more than a
Month before they left, and - on the march they were put
oa quarter rations of beans and rice, without a isarticle
of breed or meat; and during' theeixteen days' march
had 'no bread except what they made of new corn, each
men carrying with hints tin plate, 'punched fall of holes
with a nail, to make It serve as a grater, and'ln this way
they grated new corn for bread and mush. Bare-headed,•
and bare-footed, *Shoot tat-clothe, - their suffaings
-were terrible ! Toll& mast be added a degree of hanger
that drove them to kill sheep, and old sows with rage, and
eat the meat, in some instances, perfectly raw ! I hope
no troops in the United States service will ever be called
upon to make as long, as laborious, and as much of a
continuous march - as this division of the army has done,
during this war.- heartsickens wheal Think of their
privations end utter destitution: , No division of the
army has as much and as good artillery all of which
*they brought out Safe. But on the night of the 3d of
October, at Greeniipebarjr, Ny., they ate their first bread
for sixteen days" •
.*
Now, the papers talk shout instituting a court of in
entry, to look into the subject of this retreat I pro
honnce the retreat right and proper; and I assert that it
MTh conducted with a skill and daring which entitle Gan.
Morgan andihe officers and men under his command to
• the higbest.honorit Still, I hold that the court ought to
be 'called, and if I were a member of Oongross I would
ergo its call, not to look into Gen. Morgan's conduct,
but to indict, try, and punish the Government of the
United States and the army authorities for making the
retreat necessary, and for leaving so gallant an army for
- so malty months surrounded, destitute of clothes, pro
vieionA and money, when the facts were made known to
the e 4h et ts' es at Washington ' and they were implored
to send this army-relief. Let the court be called, but let
It be ti sit in judgment upon the Government, to correct
IM miimanagement and culpable remissness. •
I easy be regarded as talking plainly, bat I do it over
my Men signature, and I am responsible for it and ready
to' alone for all I esy, privately or through the press. I
feel for the six regiments of East Tennessee infantry,
and the two of cavalry, in this army, and for their desti
tute and buffering families left behind. Besides, I have
a son who is lieutenant colonel of the 4th Tennessee Be
tenient, and ,who hat been here on furlough for twenty
four hours, naked,lbetre footed, and bareheaded, his mo
ther having furnished, him. I did not see him, but learn
that he left here for his command in good health, per
fectly cheerful, and without uttering one word of com
plaint, speaking in the highest terms of his superior offl
cers. -
But I must telt another disgraceful truth. These East
Tennessee troops, who have been five to nine maths in
the service, dr illing,
, and doing picket duty, and other
labors,have never received one dollar of their wages,
`find era new destitute of monsy_antd_areso_RNAgems
to be in a oonaton - di ieTtOnthmeana
— mantis eFew•,...ret W.nnhinatom
In this naked, starved - out; and destititte condition; with
out siyoes, Seta,' clothed, or tents, they aro ordered into
Northwestern Virginia. The two Kentucky, and one In
dians regiment, hive had friends to interfere on their
behalf, ei,d they are allowed to come back home to fight
for their own fire-aides. Bat the poor East Tenneeseons
bave no friend's who can be heard or respected in their
behalf. They are now ordered into these ice-bound
momitaine ot.LKirginia, to be starved out, frorta to death,
sad butchered by, superior forces, without money, clothes,
or tents. I predict a general rebellion and revolt,
and hone it may come, if they are forced . into
Virginia. if they have the pluck I' think they have,
they will suffer themselves to be shot before they will
obey the order-! They want to fight their way into
Tennessee, where their families are starving, plundered,
end oppressed, because the heads of their families are In.
the United Slates service. Let it be remembered that,
whilst our genera's find it impracticable to MSC into
East Tennessee with an army and its neoessery trans
portations, Bragg and Kirby Smith can cross the isms
mountains into Kentucky, and invade that State! Let
our Government ; then, turn over to Brigadier General
Carter or Spears this Cumberland Gap army and its ac
companiments, and I will underwrite that they_will go
into East Tennessee, take the codntry, and hold it !
I now propose to the Government, in good faith, to
give roe the command of fifteen thousand seen, including
these East Tennessee regiments, and all the outfit neces
sary, and I promise to take East Tennessee aefore Otwlet
- Inas, and to hold It and its railroads. I am in earnest
in making this' request. I am sick and tired of this
criminal and uncalled for delay in seizing upon the
strong point of the rebellion Beside, lam able to go
into active service, and it I can't get into the army, I
, mast at once start a paper at the North, for tee benefit
of Northern sympathizers with this rebellion, and Sixes
sion generals and Secession staff officers who are in the
United States army !

Our Loss in Battle—A Philosophic View
The following extract from a private letter, written
from Arkansas, by a young officer in Curtis' army, Is an
indication of the true soldierly feellog and patriotic devo
tion which animate many young men among our volun
teers. The writer, once a, reedent of this city, true to
the principles of freedom, equality, and abhorr,nce of
slavery, in synch he had been educated as a member of
the society of Friends, left an honorable profession at
the commencement of the war, and enlisted. as a private
in ote of the Illinois regiments, where he now holds the
rank of lint lieutenant
ti I am sorry to see so much in all your lettere, leaving
the impression that you think our past sacrifices of lite
and treasure have been only wasted, and that our new
levies ate likely to share the fate of the old, and with as
little good effect. Where a long•peacefal nation has so
suddenly to embark in waivon so enormous a scale, there
must be much seeming waste st the beginning, before
itcompetent leaders are silted out and competent ones
brought to the surface, and before erroneous plane of
action are tested and discarded. Ude is just as necessary
as that a new plough should scour! before it will do
good work. This preliminary waste is limply the stead
which is need in setting the machinery in motion, and
smoothing, by friction, the new and untried pistons and
elides. If we only push on the work perseveringly and
boldly,.nose of this waste is lost, but all counts in the
final result. We are engaged in a work of bewildering
and unprecedented magnitude, worthy of the colossal
proportions and giant energy of the New World. It may
be necessaryito its 11011 accomplishment that all of us,
the first e00,000,' should perish in the ditch, that our
bodies may form•the bridges and ladders by which the
second or thitd levy shad at last mount the breach and
plant our victorious banner on the conquered wall. What
matteo it We who make the ladders areas surely aid- -
ing the conquest as they who mount over ns .into the
shattered citadel; and, if the work is but urged on to its
legitimate conclusion, we shell have just as well entitled
ourselves to the grateful remembrance of the country we
helpedio save. Certainly, it is desirable that the waste
should be trade as small as possible, where the materials
are so precious, but in any event It must be large, and
we must submit to it if we would obtain the glorious
end."
General Cass' Views on the President's
Proclamation.
The Detroit Free Press, of October 11th, has the fol
lowing in its editorial columns:
We are requested by General Cass to say that the let
ter which has Just been published in the Chicago Tri
bune, horn Mr. Eastman, of that place; requires correo
tiOn. That gentleman called upon Gen. Case, and a con
versation took place upon various topics, in which
opinions were freely expressed. This conversation,
at
least on the part of Gen. Cass, was not expected to be
transferred to the newspapers,and should not have been
without his permission. He would, however, have had
no objection to the publioation had his sentim ents boon
correctly understood and reported.
At that interview, among other things, Mr. Eastman
introduced the President's proclamation, and the sabred
was somewhat dismissed. Mr. Eastman suPPdeaa Gen.
Cass to bate exptessed his approbation of that measure.
This is a mistake. In the few remarks he made upon the
proclamation, Gen. Cass expressed himself favorably as
to the views and intentions of the President, but observed
that, in his opinion, there wean° power in the Executive,
under the Constitatibn, to decree the emancipation of
slaves', • though, as a War measure, wherever it became
necessary, in the operation c f our forces against the
rebels, to free the stares, it was competent for the Presi
dent to direct it to be done.

But,the band of the warrior, is steady,
The brand of the hero is ready.
Up, soul! to thy dnuntleas delighting;
Thy challenge the future has won,
Though the chasm be awful with lightning,
Who fears not shall falter not. On!
Strong heart ! to thy summit bear proudly,

The batteries during this time had got into position,
Bolton near the road, and Burnap on the right, and
'were doing most efficient service The firing, at first,
was very spirited from the rebel batteries, but it graft
'ally slackened, and it was evident that they were being
disabled by the telling shots from our side. \
CDR LINE ADVANCED—THE FIGHT GENERAL.
Gem Ord now directed me to advance my whole line.
Tile movement was executed rapidly, and in good order.
The.l4th and 15th Illinois were on 'the Jett of the road;
all the`other regiments on the right. The regiments on
the right of the road first drew the enemy's fire, and be
minis hotly ' 'engaged- about half a mile from the river.
The a2tion became very hot, but our men pressed them
steadier, and in a short time they gave way and took
shelter behind fences and houses, abandoning four pieces
of artillery which had been silenced. by our batteriee.
The left now struck the enemy's line, and, the'roar of
musketry showed that it had a heavy force to contend
With; but the result was tho SUM j the enemy was driven
from his strong position, and the fight became geheral
along* the whole line, the rebels fighting behind fences
arid houses, and our forces advancing over and around
these obstacles. A rapid , movement of the 14th and 15th
bronglit third to the Efatchie, driving the enemy before
them, and - cutting off the 'retreat of that portion lielow
the bridge.
. A number of prisonore, giver one hundred in one body,
threw down their arms and surrendered, The direction
in which the enemy feU back caused Colonel Scott's
command to move to the right, and the 46th Illinois and
the 25th Indiana closed .upon his left. The 58d
Indiana moved down the road, all of them - pressing
the enemy and capturing prisoners. The river and
tho bridge were gained, but the tight was not ended.
The enemy was collecting forces on the opposite side, and
s getting his artillery in position.
, General. Ord directed me to move my command ao:oes
the bridge, and to form my regiments in line, the first
regintint on the right and the second on the left of the
road far enough to admit another regiment between
Zack of them and the road.
The 53d Indiana was moved across and directed to the
right, and the 14th. Illinois followed and were moved
to the left. The 63d had scarcely crossed the bridge
When it met a meet deadly fire, and in attempting to form
Milne it was thrown into confusion, the ground render
ing it impossible to execute the order, as the river went
sharply to the east at the bridge, and the road ran for
some distance close to the river bank, leaving scarcely
room for a company, instead of two regiments. The 25th
Indians croseed, and met with the same difficulty as the

The passage of the ilig Muddy was not disputed. In
about two miles the enemy woo inet i and I cannot do
better than to give you the following extract from Gen.
Veatch's very able and spirited report:
OUR TROOPS DRAWN UP IN LINE.
gt We had now reached some large open fields cut up
with deep pulleys and ravines, and in front of us about
tbree•fonrths of a mile was a high ridge, with a cluster
of houses called Bletamora. The cavalry hid-reached.
this point and had fired a few shots M a skirmish. ,They
soon reported an advance of the enemy; both inantry
and artillery. I ordered my lino 'to push rapidity for
ward and. take position on the hill of bletamora—
batteries were 'ordered up, and My reserve regiments
thrown into line."

In a 'very short time my whole command was in'line

All was done that oouid be to bold the ground. In our
present potation no advance could be made, and we await

the bridge, and kept unit vigorous fire on the enemy:
At this timo elajor General Hurlbut came to the front,
and took command. '
ANOTHER) , ORHARD MOVE AND SHARP FIGHT.
By Lie order liroved the 48th Into% the' 88th Ohio,
and 12th Michigan across the river and to the left of the
road. Mere they formed in line, with the 14th and 16th
Illinois, the 25th and 53d Indiana, formed on the right
near the road. The whole division now moving forward,
sharp fighting now took place on 'my left, which lasted
only a short time, When the enemy gave way, and the
fighting, so tar as the infantry were concerned, was over.
My command moved steadily up on the loft of the road,
through a large open field, to the top of the ridge in the
fold. The enemy had retired to the edge of the woods
and planted a battery there to rake the hill as we ad
vanced. I halted my line to protect it from the fire of
the artillery of the enemy, and had just given word to
001. Ball to watch his Opportunity and charge and take
their battery at the first moment he found it practicable,
and was turning to the right to see the position of our
batteries when I was struck by a grape shot, producing
a severe contusion, which compelled me for a time to Quit
the field. The fight continued with the artillery for some
time, but the whole force of the enemy fell back and beat
a hasty retreat.

PURSUIT OF THE REBELS SIX 3IILES.
The 4let Illinois pursued the rebels to where the Jones
boro road crosses the Oorinth road, about six miles.
Tiers they met the head of Itoseerans' column, and halted
for orders. Gen. Hurlbut, thinking he was too much
crippled to pursue, and being heavily encumbered with
his train of wounded, ordered the regiment back.
RESULTS OF THE RATTLE.
Thus es ded the battle of Hatchie, which, in connection
with the battle at Corinth, was one of the most success
ful and brilliant affairs, if not the must so, in the war,
both In its strategy and. its tactics, in conception and
execution. The rebel loss at Corinth 'exceeds ours ten
to one. We were behind fortifications, and they assault..
ed. Here the loss is more evenly divided, because we
had to attack, and they fell back, chooeing their position
every step of the way, and compelling us to assault.
The paettage of the bridge of Hetet& must have colt 11,
at least four hundred in killed and wounded. Therebeli
claim a loan of only forty • five (45) in killed and wounded.
If this be tine, it only shows thitt ourmen can make des
perate charges as well al theirs.
BEMARRAIILE CEIRAOTER OF THE RATTLE.
On the whole, when you come to look over this whole•
battle, it is, in many respects, the most remarkable in the
war. The march of twenty miles the first day, the .
bivouac at night, the march from daylight next day
slowly and cautiously, with skirmishers always in ad
vance, every nerve strained for imminent battle, the
double-quick for a mile to gain the,heights of Iletamorn,
the exhausting work of tho batteries on the hill, the
botly-contested fight over weedy, broken ground, the
rebels taking advantage of every ravine, knoll, fence,
house, and tree, to contest our advance, for three hours,
the arrival at the bridge of the If atchio, where all our
men could see the eight pieces of the enemy advantage
ously posted on the opposite side of the stream, the reck
less bravery and the steadiness of our men in crossing a.
bridge fifteen feet wide and twenty. five yards long, with
a miarderotis cross-fire, the steady and cool formation Of,
the columns In line of battle tinder the same galling fire,
before our artillery couldbo brought into p"sltion tost
lence the guns of the enemy, particularly the veteran-like
condrict of the 53d Indiana and the 25th' Illinois in
forining, as they were ordered, .on the riebt of the
road, though the ground was so narrow that instead of.
deploying in line of battle, they had to stand as thick to:
gether as a flock of sheep, and take tbe•grape and can
ulster of the enemy—all 'this, I think, is without a pa
rallel in history. At the bridge of Lodi forty pieces of
cannon were playing on the bridge, but as won as the
bead of the column bad passed the bridge, and thoAus
trlans ea* the colors borne by Napoleon appear on the
left bank of the stream, the gunners' fled from their gnus.
At that time the range of cannon was long nape
lire so accurate wait ii - now, and thoieln Is an important
difference. It seems to me that the fire in neither case
tan have been accurate. Think a moment. Eight pieces
of cannon can throw ) , without overworking the men
thirty-two rounds a minute. 'yery canister con
tains at least one hundred bullets, gow could any oo
iumn of men pass a narrow/ defile into , which 3,200 balls
were beinepoured every minute? Neverthe'ess, it woo
passible that this might he done and how: can we toe
tench applaud the seltdevotion of men who will rush
into anCh a mouth of hell as that't
.
If dome of our tacticians, ouriiclentilic generale, had
been in command, they would probably' have halted
our army and tried to shell out the batteries of the
enenry. In the meantime they would have destroyed
the bridge wbh their artillery inetiad of axing upon cnir
men, and we should never have crossed the stream. This
advance over the bridge was ordered by Gem. Ord, a man
of superior military education and ability and of great
genius
,for war. himself was shot while standing
rear the hither side of the bridge just after Lauman's
brigade had commenced crossing. Be was shot in the
thigh by a ride. bail and is likely to'recover, but not
Very seen.
A REBEL R_ECIIISIENT- SCATTERED.
,One other incident is worth recording. After the bat•
blies had crossed the river, Bolton's battery got into
such O position as to shell a rebel regiment which was
filing by the left flank, in order to take a position to dis..
pule the passage of our infantry. The fire was so rapid
and accurate, that the rebel colors were 'absolutely shot
down, and the whole regiment left the field As neither
infantry nor, any other artillery were concerned in the
captiire of these colors, they have been awarded to Bol
ton's battery as trophies, and the battery is going to pre
tient them to the city of Chicago, where She men were
principally recruited. This is a new battery, and this
was its firet fight.

emotion, and every eye moisten when that letter ikread.
We earnestly call attention to it. Let us be " instant in

FtEANY TURCILASES WITH COUNTERFEIT MONEY.
Several men have been arrested at Jeokeon, Miss , for
purchasing 7,500 head of cattle in Texas with $200,00)
in counterfeit money. The cattle were driven to Jack
son, and will be taken by the G)vernment, and paid for
in genuine "white backs." The Atlanta Confederacy
states that the counterfeiters are mostly of one family,
and its connections named Payne. and are from Ken
tucky. They carried out perhaps 6200,000 to Texas, and
purchased some 7,500 head of fine cattle, some twenty
P:o. 1 negroes, fine horses and carriages to ride in, and
came back with the whole, succesafally crossing the Kis.
slasippi river at Vicksburg. When they had got their
booty all safely on this side they commenced a system of
extravagant expenditures, which excited suspicion. The
money they were el:lending' was examined, and many
began to think it was counterfeit. At this stage a de
spatch was received from the Governor of Texas ordering
their arrest. Four of them wore taken Into custody at
Natchez. and three in Altxandria, La , across the river
from Natchez..

PROCLAMATION OF COY. LETCIIER.
Governor Letober bestowed a proclamation regarding
the distribution of salt, in which he says :
Ito railroad, canal, or ether internal improvement cora.
pany in the State shall undertake to transport any salt
beyond the limits of the State unless under some contract
already existing with the Confederate States, or some
State of the Confederate Stater. Before said salt
shalt be removed, the person asking for each
transportation shall make oath or affirmation that the
removal asked for is of salt furnished tinder such existing
contract. Without mob oath the salt shall be gained by
the superintendent or agent of the transportation com
pany for the use of the Commonwealth, and notice be im
mediately given to the Governor of the amount of salt
seized, and the name of the person or persons asking for
the transportation.
Individuals in like manner are prohibited from trans.
porting salt beyond the limits of the State. Any person
may seize and bold the same for the State and give like
notice.
If the supply of salt manufactured be not enough to
furnish the people of this Commonwealth with a sufficient
quantity of salt for home consumption, then as soon as
such, fact shall appear to the Governor, be will exercise
the antlority vested in him, and "disregard any con
tract made with the setarate States of the Confederate
States" until the State of Virginia is supplied.
When salt is•procured by the State of Virginia, and
its constituted agent shall offer the same for transporta
tion on the route of any canal, railroad, or other im
provement company, the same ehal be immediately
transported to the depot designated, unless such trans
portation will interfere with the transportation of troops,
munitions of war, and army supplies of the Confederate
Government. Upon refusal of each company to trans
port the said salt, the constituted agent of the State will
be authorized to tale control of any such work, and to
manage the same until the transportation be accom

From the report of the proceedings of the rebel Howe
of Eepreeentatives, on Friday last, we extract the fol.
lowing
:Mr. Kenner repOrted a bill to' reduce the rate of lute
rest on the funded debt of the Confederate States as fol
lows:
The Congress of the Confederate State: do enact,
That the Secretary of the Treasury is authorized to re.
duce the rate of interest on all bonds and certificates of
stock to be issued after the let day of December next to
a rate per annum not exceeding six per cent., payable
annually ; and all treasury notes issued after the said let
day of December shill bo fundable only in the said bonds
or stock issued at such reduced rate : Provided, how
ever, that this reduction shall not include any bonds or
stock which are required to meet any contracts made be
fore the date aforesaid, or any treasury notes which shall
then have been issued.
2 The said Secretary shall have authority, by public
notice. duly advertked, to require the holders of tree.
stay notes to come in and fund the same in eight per cent.
bonds within four months after the date of such notice ;
cued all notes which shall not bo presented for funding
within the *aid time shall thereafter be entitled to be
funded only In the bonds or stckek which shall thereafter
'be issued, under the direction of the Secretary of the
Treasury, at such reduced rates of interest.
Mr Garnett, of Virginia, moved to amend the Mil by
substituting for the first section, down to the proviso, the
following :
it All treasury notes leaned after the first day of De
cember next shall be made fundable only in bonds bear
it
g Interest at the rate of air per cent. per annum ; but
in all other respects similar to the bonds bearing in
terest."
Mr. Butsell moved to amend by striking out in the
original bill the wcrd "six per cent." and inserting
" seven per cent."
Mr. Smith, of North Carolina, proposed to amend the
first tection of the bill by making It obligatory upon the
Secretary cf the Treasury to reduce the'rate of , interest
on bonds issued after the date speced, and also to make
be interest payable semi-annually instead of annually.
The propositions were accepted by -the chairman of the
Oommittee of Ways and Means.
:The motion of Mr. Ruisell to strike out "six per
cent.," and insert t , seven per cent.," was not agreed to.
The•amendment of'Mr. Garnett was then voted nem
and agreed to.
Mr. Foote, of Tenn., introduced • an amendment to
make all treasury nc tee sad hoods a legal tender In pay

as it was not germane to the question.
Mr .Gatnett, of Va , moved to strike; but the ‘•

TRIALS OF A PIOREt—An army correspondent
thus writes of the trials of the new troops acting as
pickets: In the night time they transform trees lute
mounted men, shrubs into pickets, fences into border
lines, and even rocks into armed rebels. At one time
they hastily rallied their ranks an i poured a galling fire
intothe outcropping rocks in the river, believing them
to be a Confederate force fording the bubbling current,
even in the day time, on one occasion, a few of our men
who bad crossed to the large island in the river for grain.
wore fired on by the whole frightened line of pickets, and
only saved themselves by falling below the gunwales of
the large flat boat. To these raw troops a coon-cry or
an owl. eoreech becomes • bugle calL They need the
experience of a campaign to cool their imaginations and
temper their zeal.
