(Special Correependence of ttli, Pittsburgh Gazette.] We are in receipt of two letters from our special. correspondent in I General IlaHeck's I army. The news of the cremation of Cor inth, has detracted from their importance, but the following attracts eke not without in terest: • • IN' CAMP,INEAR CORINTH, 1 *ay 22, ISS2. SENATOR intsn'a parr. Senator Irish is visiting the 77th Pennsyl vania at present, as you are doubtless aware. • He enjoys excellent health, and appears to lie perfectly at home in camp. He brought good news from the old "bergh," and was welcomed by the few Pittsburgbere in the reg iment as—well, bow do you, suppose wo would greet the face of a Pittsbnrgher 7 Indianians have hosts of visitors; Illinoisians, Ohioians fl —everybody, but the 'single regiment from the Keystone State, at say ing, "the sight of a Pi t , to use an old sburgher fresh from home, is good for sore ayes.' The prospect of an engagement will linduce the Senator to remain with the regiment a week or two. In the meantime ho is a sight-seer. As a volun teer aid to Colonel Stambaugh, he accompa nied lien. ticCoOk on a reconnoissance, which occupied nearly all of the 20th, Brigadier • Generals. Rousseau and Johnson, and their re speotive staffs. Ales, General McCook. Sen ator Irish can tell yon where and how wo found General Pope, who can play the host so agreeably. We found Vol. T. A. Scott, As sistant Secretary of War, at General Pope's headquarters. He was slightly unwell: Yon have seen a number of ticles reflecting se verely upon General B ull, who, it has bean said, "dawdled on the - road between Nashville and Savannah." While at General Pope's quarters that march weal Commented on, and the generals present mentioned an old story, viz : the fact that captains of steamboats, at the latter place were forded to leave their beds at the risk of being hung, in case they did not comply with the a*rs of our generals, and the latter determined to reach Pittsburgh Landing, if they had to raise steam with ba con, which really was branyht into Me fur that .tirlers=farrs. purpose. Gen. Pope accompanied us to the front, and over hie own line. While there, Gen. - Nelson, who was officer of the day, met us, and in an swer to a remark from Senator Irish, replied : "Never been under fire, eh ? Come along with me, then, and I'll have Too under fire in less than ten minutes." That is a fair specimen of "Bully" Nelson's Axle. Of course, we followed him out to the *het line, where the rebels and our .naen w re popping away at each other incessantly., Prom the picket tine we rode to Gen. Tom. C4ttenden's, from there back to Gen.. Pope's quitters, then along Gen. Buell's line, where we stumbled upon General Garfield, who was birouitoking,with his men, and against Gen. Wood, l who now commands a large division. We found the merin these commands in eicelleut thudition. In the lot- ' ter they were hard at Work on the fortifica tions. We returned by Ivey of Gen. Buell's quarters, and Gen. "Bob." McCook's—found Willich and his Lieutenant Colonel, Von Tre bra, with the latter. AG this occupied time— we hhd tO dismount at /very stopping place; our hosts must needs play the agreeable ; but taking it ail in all, it wits a "full day." Sen ator Irish saw more in one day than many a Brigadier has seen in,' ten, and this is the reason why I dwell upon the reconnoissance, which is common enough in itself, and on the commands and commanders, who are all an old story to me. BUT 25th 1662. A FRENONITORY SYMUTOM OF EVACUATION. All the deserters aver that every' thing is in readiness to evacuate Corinth. ,'Some how, everything is quieter there of late; there is less drumming and filing ; lees whistling of dos loimmotives ; everything has subsided into a sort, of Sabbath. I dannot 'think the place is deserted by the main body ; • still I am of the opinion that, &Gulag.; we will not light that "great battle" . horn. And I believe a single brigade, well hsndled, could present a frontibat would deceive even our cleverest Generals, if licaureiard really wished to evacuate. THE 77T11 ESEXIVEI,VANI.II. HEGIME2IT.

The selection of C. L Wolcott, of Ohio, Assistant Secretary of War, is generally com mended as one eminently fit to bo made. Mr. Wolcott acted as, agent 'of Ohio in New York last year, and is spoken of, highly as respects both moral and mental qualifications. In politics he is a Republican. The Tax bill was reported from the Com mittee of the Whole to the Senate, to-day. Senator Simmons having consented to post pone the consideration of his substitute, the first business in the Senate will be to pass up on-the amendments agreed to in Committee. Such additional atnenduients as may be presented will be taken up. Among those made to-day was one exempting hem the tax on slaughtered animals, hogs, where not more than twenty are killed annually.

The New York Herald has the following special account of the fight on Saturday: " lICADQVAETZIis or Con. CASEY, Seem-- Pines, Va., May 31,1862.—The advance divi sion of the army -of the Potomac, on the left, 1 under the command of Brigadier-General Silas Casey were attacked to-day by an overwhelm ing force of the enemy, and driven back a dis tance of two miles. Premonitory symptoms of an attack had shown themselves for two days preview', and it was generally the opin ion in camp that the enemy contemplated such a movement. Yesterday the enemy made a reconnoisance in force, and learned exactly the position of our line of pickets, as well as the location of our camp, and trade their proper ati nil accordingly. At the time the attack wa f i n ' made, Gen. Casey'S outposts were within abut five miles of Richmond, sear Fairook. I Lion. The position was gained by the re cd oisance made by Gen. Nagleo on Satur day the 24th inst., andonr General had orders to hold the position at all hazards. The rebel generals undoubtedly made the attack in or der to prevent us from completing the fortifi cations which we were building, and also to feel our strength and learn our exact position. The outposts of our pickets were less than a mile from the general encampment, and very doss to the ; pickets of the enemy. About one o'olock the enemy fired throe shells into our camp, one after the other, at intervals of about a minute, which was proba bly asignal to their forces that everything was in readiness, and which caused no unea siness in our camp from the frequency of its occurrence of late. Within a taw minutes, they came upon our pickets unawares, and at tacked them with great vigor and a largo force. Our pickets were either killed, crptured or driven in very quickly, and the enemy ad vanced as rapidly as possible upon our camp. In the meantime, th e regiments of the dif ferent brigades had fallen into line, in antic ipation of an order to that effect, which soon arrived, and at once were off on double-quick to the scene of conflict. - The must terrible of the fighting occurred just as the enemy had got through the woods, and when ourroserves were drawn up to receive them. The most desperate courage was displayed here upon both sides, our regiments charging repeatedly upon the enemy, driving them back for a while, when they would again, in turn, get the upper band and drive us before them. The loss upon both Sides at this point must have been fearful, as every inch of ground was disputed in the most desperate manner, and was only gained by overwhelming numbers, and by passing over the bodies of our dead and wounded soldier,. Oar batteries at this time were pouring into the rebel ranks a perfect shower of grape and canister, mowing them down in winrows, but still they steadily, stepb y step, advanced, till our lino, commenced to give way, when they 'charged upon our batteries, and succeeded in capturing several gulls, which we were unable to remove, owing to the horses having been killed. The enemy were now in possession of our camp, and had turned our own guns upon our retreating columns, while the infantry contin ued to follow them rip as closely as possible. Our men, although compelled to fall back, did so .without any symptoms of a panic, but still quite hastily. The enemy captured everything belonging to Casey's Division,excepting what they had on their backs, leaving them without a tent or a blanket to cover them. The supply of commissary stores in camp was very light, and all the baggage wagons and 'officers bag gage had been sent -to the rear two days be tore, so that our loss fall principally upon the men, who bad loft all their effects in their toots. The attack was wadi's° suddenly and un expectedly that at, tai, time, 6 p. in. while the fight is still going on, and all is cot:fusion, it is impossible to give the exact position which each regiment held in the engagement. The position of the different brigades before the engagement was as follows : tlen. - Naglee's brigade, consisting of the 104th Pennsylvania, Col: W. H. B. Davis ; 11th Maine, Lieut. Col. Plainsteed ; 56th New York, Col. C. U. Vanwick ; 52d Pennsylva nia, Col. J. C, Dodge ; 100th New York, Col. .1. I.l..prown, wermon the right of Williams ' buig ! arthe Richmend stage road, and extend ed across the rail track some distance. The second brigade, under command of l ten. Wessels, consisting of the 05th Pennsylania, C 01..). B. Rowell; 101st Pennsylvania, Col. T. H. Wilson ; load Pennsylvania, Col. T. U. Lehman; Ofith , New York, Col. J. Fair man, occupied the centre anii guarded the turnpike, while tho third brigade, Gen. J. W. Palmer commanding, consisting of the 81st New York, Lieut. Col. Do Forest ; 85th New .York, Col. T. S. Bolktutp; 02d Now York, Limit. Col. Anderson ; 08th New York, Lieut. 041. Durkee, - were on the left of the road, and joined the pickets of Gen. Couch's division. It is impossible at this time to give any relia ble account of the number of killed and wounded in Casey's division. These regiments are mostly composed of comparatively new troops, and have been re- duce,' very much from ioknass since they have been on the Peninsula. The- whole di- I vision could not have numbered more than six thousand affective men, while the force of the enemy was from thirty to forty thousand. The ogicere, all as - far as I could learn, be- hared in the most , gallant manner, and their less is large. Gen. Casey was in tho thickest of the fight, and was reparted wounded, but I afterwards learned that be escaped unhurt. Gen. Palmer is reported killed, and it is gen - orally believed to,be true, as ho was in the thickest of the fight, and could not be found. do may have been wounded and taken pris oner. Gen. Nagleo had his clothes riddled by I bullets, but ' escaped almost miraculously without any serions wounds. General 'Wessell's is reported wounded. Casey's division fell back to the Seven Pines, where the division of Glen. Couch was drawn up behind rifle pits. The battle raged fearfully here for a time, when Gen. Couch fell back, with considerable loss, a short dis thrice, but finally succeeded in making a sue easeful stand till the arrival of reinforcements from lion. lleintrelman, whose troppn were pouring in on the railroad as Lleft the field, - and I learn succeeiled•jointly in checking the enemy, and retaking part of the ground lost daring the day. j :What the casualties were in Couch's division it is impossible to learn at the time of writing, xi it is near ; dark, and those whose statements coo be relied upon are still on the field. I. learn that Pock and Devon's brigades wore actively engaged and suffered considerable - Joss, but ono learn nothing reliable from the 'balance. . , It is impossible to fix accurately upon the number of our killed, wounded and missing to-night; but I should judge they will reach 600 or 7UO. ,The enemy's less must have been very heavy, as they received the concentrated fire of our batterioa for a., considerable time, be- sides the deadly volley poured into them by our infantry. A large number of our killed', hld wounded must have fallen into their ads. The object of the enemy, in my ; 0 1 40106, Was to Make aitrong reconnoissanc e ! in order to feel our position. and if successful to drive us back as far as possible: If such who the object of ;the movement, it was emi nently successful, as near as the events of- to day are concerned; but what will transpire to-morrow remains to be seen. • From a prisoner, I learn the advance of the ; enemy consisted! of hfissiisiPpi and . North' Carolina troops, tinder the command, of Gen- ; „Orel Rhodes, and', supported by 50,000 'men., As troops- under; Reintsleman and Sumner Were Seen coming up the railroad and' turn pike, at double quick, every one seemed' to toil relieved, and felt sure that now the day ; was ours, and, iliatthaaaemy, although - tem ; porartly successful, would soon be driven back ; ;beyond ourformer lines. As night approached the field presented a dreadful . appearance. Long lines of ambulances could be peen con veying the dead 'and wounded from the field, while these that could not obtain conveyances were being carried by their comrades. • - -'• - Poe cause of disaster to Gen.

Battery 11, of the let New York Artillery, had ono corporal and five or six priviffes wounded. They succeeded in saving all of their guns but one, but lost all of their caisson stocks. Battery A, of the same regiment—Lieut. Hart—lost six guns, most of them 12-pound brass pieces. These guns the enemy turned upon us as soon as captured. One or two privates of this battery were wounded, but their names had not been ascertained. There are a few whose nooks I learned as they were being removed from the field, and it will be a day or two before any thing like a full list can bo obtained. Many of the wounded wore immediately taken to the rear and placed upon cars, and carried to the Wh ite: House, where boats wore waiting to receive them. The 'arrangements for taking care of the wounded were as com plete as could be expected. In summing up the days fighting, wo come to the conclusion that, although we wore tem porarily obliged to fall hack a short distance, seven field pieces, and all our tents, blankets, Ac.,with a probable loss in killed, wounded an missing, of six or seven hundred, we stilL have many things to congratulate ourselves about, and to be thankful for. It must be re membered that General Casey's diiision:went into the engagement only 6,000 strong; at the outside, while the force of the enemy, at least, was four times that number. We, succeeded in saving all the baggage wagons, officers baggage, and losing only a email amount of the commissary stores. The enemy',com mended the attack Omit I p. m., throwing their whole force against General Casey's po sition, with the hope of causing a panic in his ranks, which they not only failed in doing, but was held in check a long time, until many of his men were made to bite the dust, and till Gen. Couch had time to prepare his forces to support him. Then, and not till then, when we hardly had officers enough to" give the command, did our brava men give way before an overwhelming force of the enemy, and fell back to a position occupied by Coach. As I left the field, regiment after regiment was pouring in from Reintsleman and !Sum ner, and though nearly dark, the firing was still kept up. The battle will doubtless bo re newed in the morning, and the enemy driven back.
