overwhelming. •
WHAT THE lIKEILL YIIIBOIIICREI OAT.
A party of them, well known in St. Louis,
where they are at borne, have been taken there
as prisoners ; and they tell the editor of the
Democrat the following story
. Generals Price and Van Dorn, previoulily
reported at the battle, were not there, nor any
'of their forces. Gen. Prentice surrendered
about 4 o'clock on Sunday evening. The rebel
°Melte say he and his men fought wall, but
were completelytaurrounded when they gave
up. They also say that their army was drawn
t in fine < - 1 bort/. on Soturdny ni 9 4t within a
fair hnadred yards of ow camps, and plainly
saw our men going in and out of their tents.
Their Gentrale,would not let them build their
camp fires (or fear of discovery. But for the
rain and terrible condition of the reads, and
the delay in the arrival of some of - their rein
forcements, they would have been down von
no Saturday morning. Our gunboats, they ad
mit, eared our - army from complete annihila
tion on Sunday night. They nay they cannot
underhand toky we Add oo scouts or pickets
out. They poured into our camps without re
sistance,And in many cases slew or captured
oar soldiers in their tents.
"In their opinion, they have won a great
victory. They claim to have routed us from
our camp, captured our guns, and taken 8,000
prisoners. The fight on Monday was simply
defensive, as they claim they retired in good
order from the field. Their camp, they state,
now at Pea Aidge, - a few =Gee south of
Pittsburgh, where they will make • grand
stand."
Of course rebel testimony in such a matter
is to be taken with many grains of eilowaeee;
but as it be supported by the complaints of
every letter.wrlter from the camp, whether be
be a soldier or civilian, that part of it which
relates to the disposition of the enemy before
the attack, about which there it now no in
ducement to lie, may, we think, be received
as a near approach to the truth.
SOUL ONS BLONDERLD.
I propose now to allude to two oircuus
stances which.rerprire verydelicate handling,
as the eatiaesaire not fully explained, and in
nocent persotie may be censured.
All have, no doubt, asked the question bow
- it was possible that, in tbo immediate vicini
ty of an enemy ao powerful and wary, when
such enormous issues were at stake, our army
should have been surprised, that sixty thou
mnd troops should have moved upon our ad-
VatiCal SO that they were upon us, and cap
tured three regiments, as appears in many
cases, before their guns were loaded ?
.ninme "no hail blmulered.”
One statement is that the captain of the
picket guard of Gon. Prentiss' brigade was so
drunk as to be totally unfit for duty. This
.may be only a, report. Possibly the pickets
wore captured.
.7116 MEDICAL DEPARTIIIINT
Another circumstance, which, whether ow
rng to mismanagement of negligence, or want
of material and men, is unutterably melan
choly, was the want of medical attendance,
stumbled into a tent not fifty yards,from the
hospital, where lay one of the rebel wounded,

I tried to find him he was gone, whether to the

lay two of the dead. On the evening of the
battle,, directly .in the pathway, lying in the
mud with nothing bet a blanket beneath 'Mini
and surrounded by curious lookers on, was a
Confederate officer, groaning
,and apparently
dying. Two orAirect hours afterwards the

me that all was disorder and confruion ; that

A letter just received from Dr. Irish, of Ms

(col. Stambaugh), written upon the field of
the recent engagement at Pittsburgh Land
ing, contains the following allusion to the part
taken by that. Regiment in the engagement:
"We were, I believe - , the only regiment in

The New Iron-Clad Gun'oat.
A description of the new iron lad gun
boat, the - Galena, which was partl built at
- Mystic, Conn., and afterwards' - brought to
r
this port to receive her engines a d arma
ment, and be prepared Air sea, as pub
i
lished in the...Sl:ening Post reCentl . . Some
very important alterritions in the plan of
Construction have since been made, by
which her Strength and power.of resistance
Will be rrindered much greater than was at
first deemed practicable. The most im-:
yortant of these alterations, are, first, the
extention of the iron mail over . the bow
and stern of the boat, instead of .using
common plates, according to the original
design; and second, the increase to three
and a quarter inches in thickness of the
mail on the upper wall or shot-proof
-covering of the fighting deck which pro
tects the batteries. This covering slopes
inward at an angle of about fortp-five de
grees,
aisd the sheathing was to have: been
but two inclieti in thickness. The changes, , 1
it is believed; will effectually protect the
gunners, and render the vessel absolutely
impregnable to ordinary projectileS.
The object which it was designed to se
cure in the construction of this vessel has
hitherto been deemed impossible of accom
plishment, and the project was, therefore,
like the building of the Monitor, an ex
periment. The novel proposition, and one
that seemswholly inconsistent with itself,
was made by a citizen of Boston—the well
known naval architect, Samuel H. rook.
It was substantially as follows: That a
vessel could be -built, twohuridred - feirt, in
length, thirty-six .feet breadth-of.bearp,
and of. one thousand tons burthen—the
size and description of a war vessel of thiS
ordinary construction;' which would re- -
quire a depth of water of about twelve feet
—and yet that the boat should be strong
enough to sustain a shot-proof covering,
have a draft of water of but ten to twelve
feet, and contain engines and machinery
which would give her a speed of twelve
knots per hour—in short, that she should
be entirely seaworthy, as perfectly adapted
to the purposes of cruising as the "wooden
walls" in common use, and, in addition, be
impenetrable.
To accomplish these objects a hull of
peculiar model, designed to elect a greater
displacement of water than is ordinarily
secured, was built, and upon it four hun
dred tons of armor have been plaCed, with
entirely succeessful results. Experiments
have been made with the machinery i which
justify the expectation that the spec4l Of
the vessel will be equal to what was orig
inally anticipated—twelve Miles per hour.
At a little distance the appearance of the
Galena is emoothe and regular, her curved
lines and rounded form, diminishing her
apparent sire. A chew inspection reveals
the joints of the longitudinal plates with
which she is covered, but not a bolt-head
is visable. This is one of the peculiarities
of her mail , which is of a new design.
By means of flanges and tongues the heads
of the bolts are entirely covered, and thus
a source of weakness in the iron plating
generally in use is obviated.
The ports are covered with heavy armor,
are divided horizontally, open in the mid
dle, and are moved by levers which may be
worked with great rapidity. In the middle
of the port-covers boles are constructed of
sufficient size to allow the muzzle of the
gun to protrude; but these holes have
covers carefully fitted, and deemed to be
quite as impenetrable as the mailed sides
of the vessel, which have in addition to the
armor, an average thichness of fourteen
inches of solid oak.
On the upper deck a pilot house of a
nearly round form has been constructed.
It hag seven aloolr,outsi" or narrow open
ings, and its wallsOiro Composed of nine
plates, the outek plate an inch in thickness
and the others half-inch.
. .
The hatchways and sky-lights, of which
there are several on the upper deck,- arc .
secured ~with heavy iron grating four
inches in depth.
The smoke-pipe—the most exposed.por
tion of the whole—ii so constructed that a
shot through it, or even its entire demoli
tion, would not only not disable the steam
er, but would not materially affect the
speed. An iron grating has been built
through it, and bands around it at the base,
which will prevent any injury to the boil
er in case of accident to the smoke-stack.
Tho top of the pilot house is covered with
grating, which permits the freecirculation
of air, and abundantly protects it. '
The fighting deck, which is fully en- -
closed; and apparently very low (the slop;
leg sides of the vessel almost lying,upon
