REBEL ATTROCITIES
That the Southern rebellion is ilestin
ixTto speedy_ destruction, appears to be
conceded even by the rebels themselves;
their retreats before our advancing le
eons, looks as if they hati lost all hope.
A few weeks will timi them forced into
the Gulf States. after Which our govern
ment may take its time in driving the
leaders to either leave the country or
surrender.
The rebe i lieaders have been unforin
nate in every respect, but in none more
so than in their disparagement of North
ern prowess and honor. They painted
us as being a horde of desperate adven
turers, whose object was the desecration
of their homes and the violation of their
most sacred relations. They filled the
ears of their deluded followers with fabd
illations of the most infamous character,
as to the intentions of the North in
suppressing the rebellion. The conduct
of our troops, in every place which has
fallen before them, gives the lie to those
rebel predictions; in no place have we
heard of them committing an out
rage,_ but on the contrary we have learn
ed that they have not only acted with
becoming propriety and moderation, but
have put up with insult from certain
high toned Southern belles, rather than
verify the slanders of their enemies.—
This has been particularly the case at
Nashville, Teun. The fact is that the
rank and -file of the Northern army is
composed of rather extraordinary ma.
teriel; if they are not superior to the
Southern soldier in courage and muscle,
there is no comparison between them in
civilization and morals. While our men
have refrained from sullying their repu,
tations by serious acts of outrage some
of their opponents have been guilty of
crimes the most henious and revolting.
We do not, of course, allude to the South
ern people and soldiers in general, but
the infamous proceedings alluded to
have been perpetrated in se v:ral div is
ions of the rebel army.
A - correspondent giving some remin
isances of the battle of Bull Run,spealts
of a lady with whom he conversed, relit.
tive to incidents both before and after
that engagement. fifer sympathies were
with the. rebels which gave still more
weight to her statements of their atroc
ities:
"Nineteen of our men were buried rear
her house. But in a few weeks every corpse
bad been dug up, the fiesh boiled or hacked
from the bones, and the litter distributed
as mementos of Southern conquest and bar.
nazism. The husba id confirmed the state.
mein of his wife. and there is no doubt of
its truth. Among the still left behind at
the camps, joints cf human vertelei to and
human skulls, scraped and polished, have
been found tad .y. Mrs. Butler told me
that on the night of the 20th a mat i a vd
Federal courier came within their lines
and asked for Gen. henclquar ,
tare. As ho put the question ha saw the
Palmetto in the hat eta South Carolina
guard, and ;nit spurs to his horse, but was
shot and killed. Dispatches in cipher were
found on his person. le was buried, but
dug up within a week, the flesh belled
from his bones, and the latter exhibited as
emblems of an inva ler's fate."
A correspondent of the (liettgoTi A! 1: S
giving an account of the pursuit of
Price by Gen. Curtis through Missouri
into Arkansas, mentions the following
case of rebel poisoning. This letter is
dated Feb. 17th :
isTosday the Benton Hussars want out
on a scout in the neighborhood of Benton
ville. One of their number strayed from
this company and was afterwards found in
a privy, his head mashed with stones and
his body disfigured. Some whisky was
found in the place and the boys proceeded
to imbibe. Before morning one captain
mut several privates died, w ail,l one major,
two captains and about forty men narrowly
escaped the same fate, and Lava been ren
deredunfh for service, for how lone none
can tell. These are our enemies—cut.
throats, assassins, spies, robbers, poisoners
—and how many commissioned officers,
think ye, good people of the United States,
ate being court martialed because they per,
matted fire to cleanse the eins of tnese
cowardly brutes in twenty-five dwellings
in Bentonville? Is there a man who reads
this dare say he would not have had re
venge under like cause of provocation
In addition to these instances of bar
barous warfare, we sec by the corres,
pondence between the rebel General Van
Dorn and General Curtis, subsequent to
the battle of Pea Ridge, that there simi
lar outrages were perpetrated by the
rebels upon the Union dead. In reply
to Van Dorn, Gen: Curtis says :
44 1. am directed to say that all possible
facilities will be given fcr burying the
dead, many of which. have already been
interred. Quito a number of your Sur
geons have Callen into our hands, and are
permitte I to act under parole, and under a
General Order from Major Gen. Halleck
further liberty will be allowed them if such
accommodations be reciprocated by you
The General regrets that we lln on the
battle field, contrary to ciyiliz.id warfare,
many of the Federal dead, who were tom,
ahawked, scalped, and their bodies shame,
fully mangled, and caprnsod a hope that.
this important struggle may not degenerate
to a savage warfare.

Brigadier amonl S. R. I:llRT's
From Brazil.
A correspondent of the. New York
Thom, Writing from Rio Do Janeiro, .1 an.
25th, says:
"Perhaps in no place, any other
foreign muntry, has the - effects of the rea
hellion, now disturbing your country,
been so much felt as in this port; a dimi
nution in the export of more than one.hta
of her great staple—coffee, many and
heavy failures, and today a perfect stag
nation in besinets, is the result. All are
waiting for the arrival of the next English
packet due here on the 2d of February, to
bring the news and answer the only ques
tion now heard on 'Change—Will there be
war between the United States and Eng
land? litany high - and bide: words have
elraidy gamed between thecitivms of both
min s t bs, and Queen Vie's sulleets here
being In much greater number: than our
-Amerldni fellow-citizens, have, to use
their own expression, already given ua
lolly good whipping" —but, thank good_
pa, it la only in their mind's eye, and
war or no war, I doubt whether they will
over have a more distinct view of it."
THE AFFAIR AT POHICK
'CHURCH.
In reply to our remarks upon this afa
fair, in yesterday's Posy, the CIIRONICLE
publishes the following mixture of im•
pertinence and falsehood.
The Post in that foolish and malicious
style of writing rarely indulged in by
respectable city journals, endeavors this
morning to fasten upon us the stigma of
having made Lieut. Col. Morgan ,respon.
slide for the late loss of two Pittsburgh
officers of the tied regiment We neither
111 d, nor meant to do anything of the kind.
On March Bth, there was published. on our
outside e. dispatch clipped from the Herald,
and headed "Affaira on the Lower Foto
" In the last paragraph of the there
was mention of the fight with the Texan
Rangers and this sentence : "It is said that
this company was commanded by a volun
teer Lieutenant Colonel, who permitted
the enemy to pass to their ambuscaded pe.
sition under his guns, but yet led his cons.•
mend into the trap." This article was
clipped out by one of our employees,
and. the sentence above quoted was never
seen either by him or vs until pub•
fished, and when seen was regretted ; but
the name not having been mentioned, aria
the charge having been attectred to a rath•
er obscare paragraph, it was thought best
not to give the matter any more
11.611C9 by calling more special attention to
it. It was far from our desire to blame
Mr. Morgan for the unfortunate loss of
that day, because we were then ut.erly ig.
norant of the facts. We have been on the
meat intimate terms of friendship with
Lt, Colonel Morgan and his family, and
have always esteemed him 93 a very
worthy and excellent man, as well as olli.
cer. With the statement of alleged facts
published by the Post, it is not our busi-
ness at present to pass judgment. If the
facts are as represented therein, no one
can be more sincerely glad at the triumph.
ant defence made for Colonel Morgan than
ourselves. Our only object at present is
to relieve ourselves of the wantoi and
groundless imputation of accusing a friend
of grave military blunders before the facts
were known.
Now what will the community think
of ,this brazen statement, when they
are informed that Mr. Morgan, the
father of the young officer mentioned,
actually waited upon the editor of the
Cu RON Ii"LE, pointed out the otteusive par
agraph iu question, and with a parent's
solicitude requested him not to publish
it. lie whiningly remarked if he di,l
not, somebody else would. When as
sured that such would not I,c the case,
he answered he would then be governed
by circumstances. Yet the editor says he
never saw it; and now, instead of mak
ng amends for I.ls conduct, he attempts
to excuse himself by resorting to abuse
and falsehood. Rather than forego the
publication of a sensation item, this
wretch was willing to damage the repu
tation of one whom he now states he es
teems highly, and with whose family he
has been on terms of "intimate friend
ship." 1 f this be true, Col. Morgan and
his family may well exclaim, "save me
from my friends."
kirThe Gszrrrs having exhausted its
limited powers of invention in calumni
ating Gen. McClellan, has recourse to its
scissors, and extracts from the TatUUNI:
half-columns of most infamous slanders.
This is lamentable encouragement for a
young and gallant soldier.
These abolition slanderers of a meri
torious officer can have no dread of here.
after ; they must be skeptics of the
rankest sort, having no faith in the does
trine of future rewards and punishment e.
We pity such wretches, on their own
account, but lament the terrible effects
of their teachings upon the youthful
minds of the rising generation. fhty
will have much to answer for. This
skepticism and infidelity, when inculca
ted under the cover of philanthropy,
take their most dangerous shape, and is
the fatal rock upon which Mr. Webster
predicted our downfall, should it eve r
come, Be true to the teachings of the
Christian religion, said he, upon a mem
ortib'e occasion, and our institutions will
last forever. But those abolitiohists care
rezi more for his lessons of morality than
they do for his political teachings; they
discard both. For our own part we re
joice in being properly impressed with
the great expounder's lessons of blended
piety and patriotism; and our exceeding
felicity, at the present moment, ;now
prompts us to admonish our cotempora
ry to reform its conduct altogether. It
is positively shameful, and we demand
immediate reformation, unless indeed
our neighbop classes itself among the
finally impenitent, and rejoices in the
conviction of there being "no here
after."
Iron-Clad War Vesse's
We were shown yesterday, says the
Philadelphia INQUIRES, a portion of a
letter from Marseilles, France, dated
May 2d, MO, from General Henry M.
Naglee, of the United States army of
the Potomac. As iron-clad vessels of
war are now engaging much attention,
we obtained permission to publish it,
thinking it would interest our numerous
readers.
The extract runs thus:
went yesterday and passed the day at
Toulon, I was delighted. It is an immense
depot, where not less than 4,500 men are at
work, constructing some of the most ex.
treordinary vessels ever designed. •
"There are five in all, three of which
have been launched. Each will have one
tier of fifty guns, of the largest size; and
its entire outside and deck will be covered
with plates of iron eight feet by four fret
on the surface and five inches in thickn'ess.
"Their bows are protected and armed
by a solid mass of iron that will cut through
everything which they may be directed.--
The deck iron will also be covered by 4}
fent of sand, and the port can be closed by
iron doors, six inches thick, which will be
opened and Shut, as may be required.
went through all the works, and was
very handsomely entertained by the Amer
ican Consul."
Presentation to the President
ion. lff Train, accompanied by a
party of llit%ssachusetts gentlemen, called
on the President on Thursday, and pre
sented him with a whip vhlued at $2OO,
made by theViestfield Company and splen.
didly mounted:
On receiving it the President pleasantly
remarked that to him 'it neither suggested
the whipping of rebels, nor the whipping
of negroes, but thosenondrig days of peace
when he could sit, behind a good pair of
horses and drive through a prosperousand
happy land.

The Norfolk DAY BOOK, of March 10th;
in a vivid description - tot the one sided'
carnage, caused by the Merrimac, which
it calls a fight, says;
"The Airrrimac next turned her atter:•
tion to the Congress, which vessel, it is
said, gallantly resisted her inevitable fate
for nearly an hour, but fin tlly, finding the
ship rapidly sinking, she hauled down her
colors, and made for the beach, whore sho
was run as high nground as possible. For
'nearly an hour' she plied her guns, though
her shots were almost idle, while those of
the Mel rimac crashed thunder* through
her ribs, or strowfd her deck with the dead,
When now fast sinking, she snuck her
colors, to save hundreds of lives from sure
and fruitless death by the enemy or the
sea, yet stranded herself, that she might
not benefit the foe."
In . the same hour, and on the same WAN
tors, a courage moo striking thin oven
this blazed forth on board the Cumberland.
Of her the Day Book says:
"A gallant man fought that ship. Gun
after gun he fired; lower and lower sunk
his ship; his last discharge comes from his
pivot gun; the ship lurches to starboard,
now to port; his flag streams out wildly,
and no v the Cumberland goes down on
her beam ends, at once a monument and.
an epitaph of the gallent men who fought
her."
-"What a picture! Need we rucr3 than .
add that twice in those few minutes had
great gaps been opened in her sides by her
invulnerable foe, and that to the second
and last summons to surrender, her corn•
mander replied, "We'll sink first." This
desperate daring never ought to be surpass.
ed, and we believe it never has been, nn•
loss on that French ship, overpowered and
sinking in the British channel, out whose
officers and men, instead of yielding, clue.
tered together on her deck, and went
enouting defiantly, "Viva la Republique."
A Remarkable Document
A correspondent who Bailed with the
expedition which lately took possession
or Fernandina, Florida, sends the fol.
lowing letter, which he found there, to
the New V . ork Times for publication.
The letter explains itself:
WASHINCTON, Jan 7, ISca,
.11r Dir ails—On the other side is a
copy of resolutions adopted at a consulta
tion of ho Senatora from the seceding
States—in which *erg* Alabam9, Llui •
iians, Arkansas, 'Texas, Mississippi and
Florida were present.
Tao idea of the meeting was that the
Stste,sliould go out at on •e, and provide
forothe early . rganization of a Confederate
tialfernment, nut lator than 15 February.
T is time is allowed to enable Louisiana
:xes to p,rticipate. It seemed to be
opinion • that if we left here force, loin
and volun ‘,.r bills might bo paned, which
would put r. Linchin in immediate
condition for .ostilities—wheroas if [Eic]
by remainin in our places until the
4th of March, it s thought we can
keep the hands of Mr. Buchanan tied, and
disable the B3publicans from effecting any
legislation which will strengthen the bands
of the incoming Administration.
The resolutions will be sent by the del
egation to the President of the Convene
Lion. I have n.>t bean able to find Mr.
Mallory this morning. Hawkins [tho
member from Florida] is in (.13nnecticut.
I have therefore found it best to eend you

"N. Billaut is one of the "ministers

of Nov. 24, 1860, and whose especial busi

of the Chambers to answer que.alions anti

of ceurse he would not commit his gov

I n reply to the Marquis de Iloissy, 11.
Billaut said, among (Amor things : "In
regard to Americo. Franco will never for
get the bonds of kindness which unite her
to the United States. History points out
to her that war with them is impossible,
but that does not prevent - her from being
pained at seeing the children of the same
people destroying each other in their cow
mon country. The government has recom
mended and practiced neutiality. It could
not allow events to compromise the princi,
plea which it defended in 185 G in the Con
gress of Paris, but it. foils the strongest
friendship toward the Unitedetates, and
cannot comprehend how any one could
wish to impel it to a combination that
would have for its object to force an en
trance into the southern ports in order to
load cotton. On the ~pnre of France, such
conduct would be matin'eisil and England
whose interests are niord•-dieply engaged in
the question;
and is now on good terms with
the United States, w)uld not venture on a
line of policy which is not that of France,
and to which the Emperor would not lend
himself."
New Madrid is Ours
New Madrid is the capital of New Mad•
rid county, Missouri; is situated on the
Mississippi River about twenty-seven miles
south-southwest from Columbus, Kentuc
ky, in an air line, but much farther by
the winding course of the river• It is
two hundred and eighty miles southeast of
Jefferson City, and before the outbreak of
the Rebellion did a large business in ship
ping corn, lumber and cattle for :Southern
markets.
Its importance grows out of the fact
that it has boon occupied by the Rebels
ever since they lint moved on Columbus
last summer. It was the base of the open,
ations of Jeff. Thompson and others,north
ward and westward into Missouri, which,
it will be remembered, gave the Federal
officers much trouble. The town was
greatly injured by an earthquake in 1811,
and, on account of the frequency of these
disturbances, and its liability to them, the
houses are mostly built of wood. It was
founded in 1780.
The Contrabands
Large numbers of negroes from the
region of country recently evacuated by
the rebel army are arriving in Washingto.•
daily under military guard: Wo saw a
single gang of some twenty-five (of all
ages and both sexes) this forenoon. They
report that the resident sympathizers with
the rebellion there are generally hurrying
their negroes South es fast as possible.
Perhaps one tenth of the whole will men•
age to escape in this direction, as these
have done.
Affairs in Petersburg
The Petersburg Express, of Tuesday,
says :—"The city of Petersburg and the
adjoining surrounding country, to the di:.
tance of ten miles, has been placed under
martial law by proclamation of President
Davis, and Capt. William Pannell appoint
ed provost marshal, with instructions to
establish forthwith an effectual military
