Munrord.-villo, Doc. 1?, a of
the Cincinnati ijusrtir the following
interesting account ofthe Mflnfordsvillefight, j
which proves even more brilliant when it if
more folly described
At about half pat-r oue this afternoon ohr
camp was startled by the iV“T iDltl
kciry, which -perned to come
haok of Grt-en river. It wa3 kjhQfra,that] a

ment, the 32J Indiona, •warddinfcjfrieket duty
on that fide, and the infercnbtfct-bfite wits
that the lusty Germans bad either attacked
the enemy or been attacked by. them—most
dikely the former. General Johnson well
knew the souud to be that of fight—the direc
tion of tho firing and the hdut bfthe day told
plainly that atlcaft a skirmish* Was actually
going —probably a grand battle
So he ordered the signal gun te jnuua, and for*
the first time nur regiments formed jn line ;c.f
j battle. . .
A messenger shortly came over with the in
telligence that W'illich's pickets bad espied
rebel Soldiers In the woods beyond them, and
immediately their
Colonol, Henry ron Frebra, bad ordered two
companies to advance, and if possible, effect
their dislodgraent. The enemy r?tt«ated half
a mile to bis main body wilboab£rifig a shot,
and the two companies pursued him, stealthily
advancing as Skirmishers. Suddenly and un
expectedly a troop of rebel cavalrymen came
dashing orer the bill, and a-'oarelcss volley
-from their shot guns told our boys that they
were near falling into an ambuscade, and that
the enemy was actually in in con
siderable force. But, nuthi l b^'daunted, the
brave Gormans, veteran like, rofutnid tho rpl
toy with a galling fire, slowly so'as
to bring the enemy out from tt}6 woods, npd
into a level, open field. confi
dent in bis numbers, was ff<#*alcw to accept
tbe invitation. In tho mt&ntimo, tho two
companies being bard pressed, tho bugle was
sounded to bring up tbe remaining companies
cf the regiment They came on right gal
lantly, .part of them haring-.to cross Green
river, and fell in upon thought and left
-fiank with as much apparent coolness a 3 if
this had been their nundrothbattle instead
of their first. Then followctfisn almost hand
to hand conflict, lasting fully* an hoar. 'the
enemy strovo in vain to draw the Germans
op the hill by feigned retreats, a masked
battery was so planted as to have swept our
brave fellows fore and aft. had they for a
moment permitted their valor to get tbe bet
ter of their discretion : but, knowing the fear
ful odds arrayed against werecon
'tent to hold their ground.' Finally, when the
enemy despaired of getting them into tbe am
bush, they unmasked their battery and opened
fire. The first ball pushed between the Adju
tant and Major of the regiment) who occupied
positions not many feet apart. The belching
cannon was the signal of by the
Teran cavalrymen, nnd right well did they*
perform the work- Captain Welscbbellich,
Company G, formed his men ir> hollow square
and tho cavalrymen charged their front, their
right and their left, but they were as adamant,
the square remained unbroken, while many of
the'Texans, equally brave, but less successful
because they -were tho attacking party, bit
the Just. Tho cavalrymen retired, discom
fited, and then an entire regiment of rebel in
fantry darkened tbo hill and came marching
down toward tbe bravo men composing Com
pany G, but a galling firo from our front and
right scattered their forces and gave them
something elso to think abnnt. Col- Willicb
had boon ordered on duty at headquarters
and consequently did not get to bis regiment
until the heat of the battle was over. The
regiment was forced to fall back a short dis
■ tanco, not being able to stand against the
artillery. The rebuts did not pursue. They
carriuJ off ’heir wounded, ana thou beat a
hasty retreat. It is known that the rebel
• force consisted of Terry's regiment of cavalry,
two regiments of infantry and three pieces of
cannon. The rebels lost forty-nine killed.
Their number of wounded is not known, but
it is uudoubtodly large.
December 18.—This morning they sent in
a flag of truce, under which they aro inter
ring their dead. Willirh’* entire forces only
numbered 41-1. including commissioned offi
cers, non-commissioned officers and privates.

That is the objection to all that. I take it
the president of the confederate States of
America, if there be such an
upon the earth,-himsalf.could not object to
that on the part of our generals. Nobody
can object to it.
In the same way with regard to the con
fiscation of the negro; I do not 9ee any dif
ficulty there. Ido not see anything t£at
wo have to do with the thing in theAvorld.
I take it, in the first place, that it is' an ab
surdity to talk about the Government of
the United 6totes confiscating a negro.
•When property is-confiseated by the laws of
war it is taken from the owner, is convert
ed into monoy. if yon please, and the.pro
ceeds put into the fisc or treasury. Now,
whenever you commence this operation on
a negro slave, . yon arrive immediately at
an absurd conclusion. You attempt to'take
him from his owner, you cannot own him ;
you cannot convert him into money; and
you cannot put him into the fiSc or treasury.
There is no use in talking about it; all you
can do with him when you seize him is to
emancipate him if you please.
i have spoken of the negro considered
as a man; now, suppose you consider him
as property. There are people in rebellion
against the Union, people whom we have a
right to consider not only in the light of
citizous who have violated their allegiance
to the country, but as alien enemies. Very,
well, then, negroes are their property. By
the laws of war, we hqv c aright to take all
the property of alien enemies. That is only
I limited fay such, restraints ashave been put
upon that right of ours by the lawß of
humanity and civilization. We have that
right already; and, as I take it, that right
is not in the hands of Congress, but in the
hands of the Executive—in the hands of
the President, who is the Commander-in-
Chiof of the Army. 1 would, therefore,
think it improper to legislate even upon
thataubjooU--utterly unnecessary. I should
loek upon any statute—and I have always
looked upon any statute by Congress upon
that subject—in the light of a restraining
rather than am. enlarging statute. When
you have absoluto authority to do a thing
by the laws of war, under which the Com
lnttuder-in-Chief of an army always acts as
against his enemy, under no restraints
whatever, other than those I have mentioned
—those of humanity and civilization,
where is the necessity of attempting to put
it upon your statute-book? 1 should as
soon think of re-enacting. Vattel or Grotius
or Puffendorf, or any other of the writers
upon the laws of nations, who have laid
down the rules for their regulation In times
j?f war. If the generals of our armies have
a right to take the property of rebels in
their efforts to put down the rebellion, if
that should be deemed prudent iu order to
facilitate Lhat operation, they have ample
authority by the laws of war; and thorp is
no need on our part of any mis
chievous enactments here which may pot
be properly understood in the county.
There is no necessity for distinguishing' as
to any species of property; and it might,
perhaps be as'well to. distinguish between
horscs and mules, between oxen and asses,
between sheep and hogs, as to distinguish
between this especial kind of property
that which is alleged to existin slaves knd
that which is alleged to exist-in, any pther.
Lmako these remarks Updn this occasion
because it does seom to me that a prober
understanding of these* prineiples would
now remove out of the .way all, thcjlbst*-
1 cles existing here or in the other Huu se to
La fair, peaceful solution of nil our. dii ieut

great many people iq the South to ilpTist
that this war is to be a war for tho eman

sir, I speak for Pennsylvania, the great
