Lark evening we were favored with one of• those cool, chilling rains which herald the approach of bracing weather. This morning we are in the enjoyment of an invigorating 'climate, feeling con• . siderably refreshed by a comfortable night's rest. • Blankets were indeed serviceable and appreciated last evening. Any improvement on the present' State of the weather, tending towards zero, will sug- • gest the propriety of the troops making themselves as comfortable as possible.,ivhile in the field. In a short time we expect to be in Petersburg or Rich mond, or both—certainly by the first of January, whore, for the first - time, the grand emancipation proclamation of freedom will be commemorated in these strongholds of the enemy. We have the pleasure of greeting many of the prodigal sons of Father Abraham, who, having re pented, are. returning honorably to worship' at the' shrine of their former devotion. Several came in yesterday, and were surprised at the kind manner in which they were received and treated. Knowing the exhausted state of the enemy's commissariat, e good meal was prepared, to which they did ample, justice. On the Cup of coffee 'alone, one of them declared that he could travel- fiftymiles. That drink: is quite a luxury in the South at present,'and its'. delicious taste awakened no doubt former • reminiicr cences which smote • their guilty consciences, anti called to their remembrance how ranch- Suffering; they had entailed upon themselves by deserting the flag of their fathers. These deserters affirm that it" is the impression in the rebel army that all who come over to our hues will be unfriendly dealt with; and forced to perform military service, and that-if the truth could be circulated it would soon be de plated. The light, it is to be hoped, will soon dawn upon their darkened minds, and that they will a& cept the proffered mercy of General Grant before it ,is too late. The canal at Dutch Gap, by which Gen. Butler hopes to avoid some seven or eight miles of the James river, and the .obstructions placed there, grandly progressing to a satisfactory completion:: To the labors of the colored troops, who, amid the' showers of shot and shell, are industriously prosek' . outing this great, enterprise, will. be ascribed the glory of its accomplishment. Though batteries, forts, and'a ram are continually hurling their mes sengers of death to interrupt the work, ah'd drive them off, our black troops, who have become season; ed to this kind of exercise, which they regard as aptirt, continue on in their operations as cheerfully as if nothing was happening. Yesterday I' saw a shell explode in the camp of the 6th (Penna.) U. S., C. T., and expected to see some uneasiness manifest at the close proximity of these ugly customers, but was surprised to observe no more commotion than if the occurrence had been one.of the moat Ordinary circumstances. It will be gratifying to the people of Pennsylvania to learn that this gallant regiment, raised near Philadelphia, Is doing a service, under trying circumstances, In connection with others equally as brave, that commends it to the considera tion of the country. That colored troops should be selected to perform such an arduous duty, exposed as they are to the raking fire. of the-enemy from several batteries, is an evidence of their high standard in the estimation' of their military chief tain. This canal, constructed for some purpose best known to the Commander.in-chief, will shortly be completed, when: the colored troops, who have labored so faithfully for its execution, will be ready . to respond to "Forward !" whenever it may be passed along the line.

CORRESPONDENCE BETWEEN GENERALS LEE AND FORREST AND GENERAL WASHBURN ON TAB TREATMENT OP' PRISONERS, NEGRO TROOPS, ETC. -Trim MASSACRES AT PORT PILLOW AND BRYLE'S CROSS GOADS-TITS BLACK PLAG. Enclosed I forward you a long correspondence between General Washburn and . the rebel Generals Lee and Forrest as to how they regard colored per sons captured In the uniform of the United States Government. The correspondence is interesting,` and should be read as an evidence of Southern bar barism and inhumanity, coupled with provarloatiOn to shrink from the consequences which theirinfamy has entailed upon them. The: rebels can raise the' black flag as soon as they please in reference to coloied troops, by whom they will be met with a corresponding determination. They ask neither, favors nor cpiarteis from theM, and are willing ttr meet them In whatever manner they proaose . te . hghk Ihem—" only let theaebs comemlong." • The correspondence, as published in 11111 in the Richreond •Sentinel, is very, 'Ong. It opens with a letter to General Washburn by the butcher For asserting his civilized character, and asking if captured rebels ire to be treated as prisoners of war, and proposing an exchange of wounied officers and men of Sturgis' command. A letter, dated June 17th, froin Washburn to Lee, declares. that if it is intended to raise the black flag, the black troops will cheerfully accept the issue. "Up to this time no troops have fought more gallantly, and none have conducted themselves with greater propriety." In reply to General Forrest, General Washburn does not accept his arrogation of being "civilized," but receives with satisfaction the intimation " that the recent slaughter of colored troops at the battle of Tishimingo Creek resulted rather from the des peration from which they fought than a predetermi nation to.give them no quarter"—(a curious conies• sion from the chivalry !) Following this General lArashburn directs his attention to the murder of lies'or Bradford : "Among the prisoners captured at Port Pillow was Major Bradford, who had charge of the fort . after the fall of Major Booth. After being taken: prisoner, he was started with the prisoners, in charge of Colonel Duckworth,•. for Jackson. At Browns ville they rested over night. " The following morning two companies were de tailed by Colonel Duckworth to proceed to Jackson with the prisoners. After they had started and proceeded a very short distance, five .soldiers were recalled by Colonel Duckworth, and were conferred with by him. "They then rejoined the column, and after pro ceeding about live miles from Brownsville, the column was halted, and Major Bradford taken about fifty yards from the roadside .and deliberately shot by the five men who had, been recalled by Colonel Duckworth, and the body left unburied upon the ground where it fell. He now lies buried near the spot, and if you desire yen can easily satisfy your self of the truth of what I.assert." The following letter of Forrest is, in the light of facts well known to our military authorities, a blast . tering and clumsy attempt to shuffle off the charges against him. General Lee's letter, it will be soon, labors, to palliate rather than mums°. But, onthe whole, it is very evident that the Southern authori ties do not wish to rest under the odium of the 11114- man massacres in the West: GENERAL FORREST• TO GEMtRAL IVASHEURIL ' HEADCIRARTERS FORREST'S CAVALRY, • . • IN TEE FIELD, June 28, 18st. Major General C. C. Washburn:Commanding U. S. Forces, Memphis, Tenn,: GENERAI , t Your communication of Irhe 19th inst.. is received, in which you say you are left "in doubt as to the course the Confederate Government in tends to pursue in regard to colored troops." My Government is in possession of all the facts.a,s regards my official conduct and the operations of my command since I entered the service, and if you desire a proper- discussion and decision, I refer-you. again to the President of the Confederate States. - I would not have you understand, however, that, in a matter of so much importance, .I am indisposed to place at your command and disposal any foots desired, when applied for in a manner becoming an officer holding your rank and position, for it is cer tainly desirable , to every one occupying a, public position to be placed right before the world, and there has been no time since the capture of Fort Pillow that I would not have furnished all the facts connected with its capture, had they been properly applied for. But now the matter rests _withthe two ,Governments. I have, however, for your information, enclosed you copies of the official correspondence between the commanding (Aileen at Fort Pillow and myself. Also, copies of a statement of Captain Young, the senior tifieer of that garrison, together with (suffi cient) extracts from a report of the affair, by my A. D. C., Captain Charles W. Anderson, which I ap• prove and endorse as correct. '- - As to the death of Major Bradford, I knew nothing! of it until eight or ten days after it is said to have occurred. On the 13th (the day after the capture of Fort Pillow) I went to Jackson, and the report I had of the affair was this: Major Bradford was, with other officers, sent to the headnuarters of Colonel McCullock, and all the prisoners were in charge of one of McCullock's regiments, Bradford requested the privilege of attending the burial of his brother, which was granted; he giving his parole to return. Instead of returning he changed his clothing and started for Memphis. Some of my men were hunt ing deserters, and came on Bradford just as he had_ landed on the south side of the Hatchie, and . . at. rested hips, When arrested lie claimed to be a Con federate soldier, belonging to Bragg's army ; that he bad been home on furlough, and was then on ids way to join his command. As he could show.no pa pers, he was believed to be a deserter, and was.taken to Covington, and not until he was recognized and spoken to by the citizens did the guard know that be was Bradford. He was sent to Col. Duckworth, or tahek by him to Brownsville. Ail of Chalmers' command went south from Brownsville via La grange ; and as all the other prisoners had been gone some time ago, and there was no chance for them to eatch up and place Bradford with them, he was ordered by Col. Duckworth or Gen. Chalmers to be sent to me at Jackson. I knew nothing of the matter until eight or ten days afterwards, when cheard that his body was found near Brownsville. I - understand that he at '-tempted to escape and was shot. It he was improperly killed, nothing would afford •VW more pleasure than to punish the perpetrators to the full extent of the law ; and to show you how • I regard such transactions, I can refer you to. my. demand upon Major General Hurlbut (no doubt upon tile in your office), for the delivery to the Con federate authorities of Col. Fielding Hurst and others of his regiment, who deliberately took, out and killed seven Confederate soldiers, one of whom they left to die after cutting off his tongue, punch ing out his eyes, splitting his mouth on each side, to his ears. I have, mentioned and given you these facts in order that you may have no further. excuse or apology for referring to these matters in connec tion with myself, and evince to you my determina tion to do all in my power to avoid the responsibili ty of causing the adoption of the polioy_ which you seem determined to press. The. negroes have Sour sympathy, and, so far as consistent with • safety, we will spare theni at the expense of those who are alone responsible for the inauguration of a worse than savage warfare. Now, in conclusion, I demand a plain, unqualified answer to two questions, and then I have done with further correspondence with you on this subject. This matter must be settled : • In battle, and on the battle-field, do you intend to slaughter myimen who fall into your hands? If you.do not intend to do so, will they be treated as prisoners of war? 1 have over two thousand of Sturgis' .command prisoners, and will hold every officer and private as a hostage until' I receive your declaration, and am satisfied .that you carry out in good faith the an swele you make. and. until I am assured that no Conlederi.te soldiorpms been foully dealt with from the day of the battle of Thiamine Creek to this time. It is not yet too late for you to retrace your steps and arrest the storm. Belying, nal do, upon that Divine Power which in wisdom disposes of all things, relying also upon the support- and. approval of my Government 'and countrymen, and the unflinching bravery and endu rancepf my troops, and with a oonseiousness -that I have done nothing to produce, but all in my cower consistent with honor and the personal safety of myself and command to prevent it, I leave with you the _responsibility of 'Hinging about, to use your own language, a "state of affairs too fearful for con templation.), . .

Grant's. line of battle, from City Point to Ream's Station,. is about twelvamiles long, and if he keeps any por tion of his :troops concentrated to protect his ex treme leftson the railroad, he must needs make other portions of his line very weak, and subject at any. time to be easily. carried by assault. And if his line were broken at any point between the rallroaclawl City Point„ he would be placed in a perplexing.and hazardous situation, as his army would-be. out in twain, and one part out off from sappliee. Twelve Yankee pickets,' occupying a post near the Davis House, on the Weldon Railroad, were surprised and captured early Wednesday. morning by a small Confederate force.

In front of .Tonesboro,where wahad a small force placed in hastily-constructed rifle-pits. The enemy charged thesn heavilyt and often. Our line, which extended ten miles northward - hem Jonesboro, was very light, and hardly Intended to prevent a serious demonstra tion on the part of the enemy, hence the break in it was easily effected. Thus it occurred that General Hardee's command became isolated from that which remained in - and about Atlanta in the immediate command nf Gen. Hood. Our most reliable report says that a furious battle continued all day. A large number of our wounded arrived at • the hospitals in Griffin, Miner Station, and Barnesville during the night.

A - little after daylight, I charged the Yankee corral four miles above Vicks burg and carried it. There was but a small force of. the enemy, and that composed' of negroes.

I captured fifteen other negroes belonging to Partee.” Other partisan leaders are 'at work, and the coun try is not the safest a Yankee in search of comfort would seek. For instance, the New York News says that only seven months ago a foolish Gothamite bought a confiscated rebel estate in Mississippi, and roared oat his family, consisting of five persons.

Our forces captured , over five hundred splendid "horses, clothing, fine small arms, &c.

His bold movement also had the effect of turning the Yankee column back that was moving down through North Mississippi.

M 222 sP. 1.1. ' The reduction of the demand - for gold - for oommer cial purposes has done as much towards inducing a decline in its premium as the present improved feel ing consequent on the promising aspect of the mili tary situation. This diminished demand't& ottribu table to our reduced imports and large-,exports, the former owing to the curtailment of the market for foreign luxuries, in consequence-of [the- necessity or inclination . to economise in living among the great majority of the people. It further owing to the demand for United States gold-bearing bonds in Europe, the export of which dispenses -with that of a corresponding amount of gold. The demand for these will obviously be stimulated by several causes of recent occurrence on this side, and the effect of which we have not yet feltin this particular. Among them - are the anticipation of the payment of the interest on the 1881 and live-twenty bonds by the Treasury;. the.fall iq _gold; our victory at At lanta • the possibility of peace at an earlier period than was previously supposed, troth from• military Bucceedand political agitation on the subject on our aide but more. than all the- money that, may be anade by speculations in them• at their present low; price in gold. -The•decline of the gold premium• will be properly accepted in Europe as a symptom of the reviving credit of the Government, and' the eager ness to invest in its bonds will reooive an impetus, and we should not be surprised to seen mania for speculating in United States gold-bearing stocks spring up in Germany before long.
