PITTSBURGH, JUNE 7, 1862
The War.
Last week we noted the reverse which
our arms e xperienced in the valley of the
Shenandoah. The affair was exceedingly
mortifying. The enemy had been retreat
ing before Gen. Banks, and evidently (din
ing at a junction with his forces at Gor
donsville and Richmond. This induced
Secretary Stanton to check the direct pur
suit by Gen. Banks, and to order Shields'
division of Banks army to Gen. McDowell,
at Fredericksburg, and Gearfs Brigade to
move toward ,Manassas. Banks' force was
thus reduced to about five thousand. The
enemy soon learned this state of affairs,
and Gen. Ewell, who had been threatening
McDowell, took the bank track, and joined
Jackson, and with twenty thousand men
made a dash on our lines, defeating our
forces at Front Royal, and driving them
from Winehester, and out of the whole
valley. Banks crossed the. Potomac, at
Williamsport, before he halted. His
re
treat in the presence of a foe so vastly 'su
perior, though attended with serious loss,
was considered as an able display of Gen
eralship,
The enemy is said to have committed
great barbarities upon our sick and wounded
at Winchester, the citizens, and .even
women, being active in cruelty. If , half of
what is told is true, our soldiers will be'
more merciful than men are ordinarily, if
they do not give Winchester to the flames,
ou their return. The' enemy came as far
as Martinsburg and Charlestown, but speed
ily retreated, doing but little damage to the
railroad. The army of Banks was speedily,
reinforced, and has recrossed the Potomac,
and will soon recover all it lost. Martins
burg, Charlestown, and Front Royal, are
already recaptured. . And 'Fremont is in
S trasburg.
The excitement at. Washington was, for
a day or two, intense. The dispatches from
the War Department to the Governors of
of States, calling for troops, show that some
great folks, as well. as soldiers, can get into
a panic. The responses were prompt, ten
dering tens of thousands. But the order
was soon countermanded, in part, and not
very many men have been forwarded.
CORINTH IS ABANDONED. The regular
and steady approaches of Gen. Halleck,
brought bile within cannon range of the
army of Beauregard on the 28th of May,
and the enemy immediately commenced
evacuating the plead. On the morning of
the 30th he was gone, and at 6.30 A. M.
the United States flag was floating over the
place. Thus the long-talked-of great battle
was only a few severe skirmishes and recon
noissances. True,
" Be that tights and;rtuxs away,
May live to fight n another day;"
but still we rejoice in bloodless victories.
The enemy is becoming rapidly exhifitsted.
He has wasted a vast amount of, his, re
resources at Corinth, life, courage, labor,
arms, ammunition, provisions. 7 At this
rate he must soon fail utterly.:..
Whither
Whither he is gone is not yet fully as-
certained ; but unless he ie . found'at 'Mem
phis, he is not likely to be found anywhere
again in so large a force. He is driven
from -most of' his' grain-growing country ;
and our fleets will separate him entirely
from supplies from beyond the Mississippi,
and hence be can not sustain a large army
at any point. An overwhelming victory at
Corinth, destroying and capturing half the
enemy's forces, would have hastened a peace,
but a compulsoq evacuation leads, though
a little more slowly, to the same blessed
end. And we give thinks.
AT Nzw -Ont.ZANS Gen. Butler finds
something to do, but he seems to be doing
it well. The Mayor and other officials are
compelled to respect the United States au
thority, and strict order is preserved. The
most. serious difficulty has been with the,
foreign Consuls. A Mr. Conturie, Consul
of the Motherlands, had $BOO,OOO of the
money stolen from the United States Mint,
by the Confederates, last Spring. This
was taken possession of by Gen. Butler.
The Consul protested, and was joined by
the British, French, Spanish, and other
Consuls, to the number of eighteen. ' Gen.
lt utler was ficm, and the matter goes to
"ashington for settlement:
gronr MosrLE we have no recent' news.
PENSACOLA is possessed quietly by the
tilted States tro t ops.
At PORT Ror there is no movement.
In NORTH CAROLINA there are strong
indications of a Union feeling. Gov. Stan
ley has arrived at Newborn.
GEN. MCCLELLAN has had a severe bat
tle near Richmond. This is an event
which we did not anticipate. His arrange
+. eats were in progress to take Richmond
as he took Yorktown, without any severe
ghting. The battle was brought on by the
enemy. He thought he saw a good chance,
and humanly speaking, his only chance, for
a victory. The guqboats repelled some
aye ago, at Fort Darling, on the James
iver, had not yet been able to approach the
city. McDowell's forces lied been weaken
by the withdrawing of troops to aid
anks', which rendered him unable to move
ward the reinforcing of McClellan. A
powerful storm had raised the, ditickahom
ny so as to make it passable with great difft
,ulty, and it had so flooded the swamps and
'ottoms that the Commander could not
eadily advance his cannon nor move f his
corps to the support of each other. ,;This
as the opportunity for the Confederates,
and they embraced it. On. Saturday last
they attacked Casey's division, which sObn
gave way. Heintzleman, however, with
his corps, was soon in position, and first,
hocked, and then drof,e back the foe.
n Sabbath morning the enemy renewed
the fight, with his whole force, but was
speedily driven back, at all points.
. Details of the fight are not, yet received.
It was obstinate on both sides, and we must
expect to hear of seciqa loops. Many
Pennsylvanians were engaged.
On the second day, a new feature in war
fare was exhibited. Gen. IWC:ellan had
a balloon elevated two thousand feet, with
a telegraph battery and wire. He thus re
ceived information at once, of every move
ment of the battle, and was enabled to, ad
vance, withdraw, or sustain his various
divisions, according to eircumstances, thus
greatly facilitating his success.
A new army order, enlarging the com
mand of Gen. Alseramo t rr, will enable him
bett4 to combine the movements of the
troops upon Richmond. The assumption
by the President of his authority, his pro
ceeding to give army orders, and his cutting
up of the Department of the Potomac into
four separate commands, 'was a grand mis
take into which Mr. Lincoln suffered him
self to be persuaded. Delay and disaster
have been consequences. The new order
giving to Gen: M'Clellan,all Eastern' and
Southern Virginia front the Rappahannock
to the. Cheiapeake and the ocean, is a spill,-
tom of a ;return to the plan of allowing
military men to manage military affairs.

‘grlie \Battle. of, .the
In a ietter,'from Capti4 - A
ITnit#d-§tat l os NavY, to Senator Grimes, or
lowa, dit:d Ship Islind, iVlay,6ttori says:
Four rams and floating batteries :such
as the world never before saw, have been
destroyed in the late attack. The Lomisi
ana, an invincible steam 'battery; was set
on fire and sent down on the vessel while: I
was engaged in drawing up a capitulation
for the surrender of the forts—a flag of
truce flying at the time. She exploded
within three .hundred yards of us and sunk
in one minute, her splendid battery pf, ri
fled guns beingiost to us. Her fragments
fairly , covered• Fort St. and killed a
min. of theirs in the fort There was
Southern honor for you I That vessel was
four thousand tons, two hundred and sev
enty feet long, and had sixteen heavy rifled,
guns—all made in Seceshia t She intended
to take position that night,' when she would
have driven off, all our fleet; for as a proof
of her invulnerability, one of tour heaviest
ships laid within ten feet 'Of her, and de
livered her whole broadside, making' no
more impression, on her than if we 'were
firing peas. The Louisiana's shot, `on the
contrary, went through and through= the
above-mentioned sloop-of-war, as if she was
glass. The iron-clad ram Manassas hit
three vessels before her commander - molter
ashore and abandoned her. She has been
a troublesome customer all
,through. In
New-Orleans our officers found the most
splendidspecimen of a floatinWbattery
world evetseen, (a sea-going, affair,) and
had she been finished and succeeded in
getting to, sea, the whole American navy
would have been destroyed. 'She was six
thousand tons, two hundredt and seventy I
feet long,' sixty feet beam; had four en
glues, three propellers, four inches (and in
some places more) of iron, s and would 'I
steam - eleven knots an hoer: 'She cost
",Mr. Mallory. & C 0.," two million of dol
lars. The best, one I saw floating by me,
was a dry dock turned into' a floating bat= •,
tery, mounting sixteen guns, and the en
tire engine, which was to wept it, her
metically sealed by a 'thick 'iron turret,
against shot. She was sunk, but floated I
down to " Sotith West Pass," and is now
aground on the bar and can be easily raised.
Resides these inonsters, thi . nitial part of
the enemy's defences at the forts consisted
ofsi o x.or seven iron -clad gunboats; : , almost
imperviouS to shot'and certainly so against
vessels coming , hew on. We had nothing
there on our side' but twenty frail mortar
bOats, five, ' sloops-of-war, nine . or ten poor
gunboats (in'all a little over one hundred
and forty guns,), to contend against two of
the most impregnable forts in this or any
other country, moupting,one hundred and
twenty-seven heavy
_guns, (many of thein
rifled,) three ironplated batteries, mount.
ing thirty-one guns, six e or seven iron-plated
gunh6ate, and nine or ten things got up'fir
the occasion, soon deatioye4iindtheir power
never
-to be known. * * *
Allow me to send you, a perfeptly correct
tracing of Fort Jackson, made by the
coast, survey party attached to the mortar
fleet. They acted in the same capacity as
the`topographical party held in the •army.
Withoutthem our work would havecbeen
tedious. They triangulated every poSition
occupied by the mortar vessels, and it is
safe to say that we knew to'a yard the ex
act distance of the mouth, of the mortars
from the centre of the fort. The enemy
never saw us except for one day, when one
of the divisions. of: six vessels was placed
in sight, getting pretty roughly handled.
I moved them , under 'a' point of woods,
where, with their masts covered with green
bushes, and their rigging with vines, they
'were invisible to the best glasses. Our

firing was a matter of calculation, and you
spay judge how accurate it was, when..l. tell
you that 1 1 313 bombs struck in the centre
and solid parts of the works ; 2,330 struck
in the moat near the foundation, shaking
the whole fort to its base; nearly 1,500
exploded in and over the works, and 1,357
struck, about the levees, in the marsh close
around, and in, the , paths and near the
water's edge, where the steamers attempted
to come. All small boats, scows and armed
barges were sunk; and if the garrison had
desired to get away, they could not have
done sp.easily. I never saw so perfect a
scene of desolation and ruin, nor do I be
lieve there was : ever such perfect mortar
practice. We could clear the 'batteries
whenever the soldiers appeared on> the ram
parts. In fact, no guns there, "could be
worked. •

Yesterday, at '1 o'clock, the enemy, taking advan
tage of a terrible storm, which had flooded the
valley of the Chickahominy, attacked our troop - a
in the right flank. Case'y's Division, which was
in the first, line, gave , way ',unaccountably, and
this caused a temporaiy confusion, during which
the guns and baggage were left ; .but Generals
Heintzelman and Kearney most gallantly brought
up their troops, which checked the ,enemy, and
at i the same time succeeded, however, by great
exertions, in bringing across Sedgwick'e and
Richardson's Divisions, who drove back the en

MORE ABOUT THE BATTLE NEAR RICHMOND, JUNE 2.
We have five hundred prisoners, among whom
are several
. prominent officers.
Our loss In the two days' engagement in killed
and,wounded, will amount to about 3,000;
A great number are missing,, who will proba
bly return, baying strayed away:
All of the enemy's killed, and most of his
wounded, fell into our hands.
The country in which the battle was fought is
swampy, with thick underbrush. Most of the
fighting was in the woods. Owing to the nature
of the ground, very little artillery was used.
Both balloons were up all day.
Yesterday all the troops marched out in the
direction of the battle-field.
The railroad has been of inestimable service to
us, .the care running within a mile and a half of
the battle-field, bringing forward ammunition and
supplies.
The wounded were immediately put on board
the cars and sent to the White House.,
Gen. McClellan arrived on the battle-field on
Saturday. evening, where he. has remained ever
since, 'directing all the • movements in person.
His presence among the troops had a great effect
Four separate charges with 'the bayonet were
made during yesterday. ,
In one instance, the enemy were driven a mile,
in which 173 were killed by the bayonets alone.
Lieut. Washington, an aid to Gen. Joe Johnson,
was taken prisoner.
The enemy's dead left on the field amount to
over 1,200.
Gen. Howard was wounded, twice in the arm.
Col. Miller, of the 'l3lst Pennsylvania regi
ment, and Col. Rippe.y, of" Pittsburgh, were
killed.
.•
Col. Campbell, of Pennsylvania, was wounded
in the thigh.
Gen. Casey had but about 6,000 effective men,
and' beingin the advance, had to resist the whole
of the enemy's columns. His men fought bravelY
for a time; but were overpoirered thy numbers.
The New-York Times says of the battle on Sun
day:. 'Flushed with their, seeming victory, on Sat
urday, the rebels awoke with confidence
Sunday to follow up . their movements, sure of
driving us , This time to the Chickehominy and
beyond, but they had made the unfortunate mis
take of. estimating the strength of our reserves
by the Weakness of our advance. Most bitterly
did they pay for their mistake.
Pressing eagerly forward, - With confidence of
victory, they'were met hy the trained - troops of
Heintzelman and Sumner, whose unyielding col
umns checked, their fierce assault, turning the
tide of battle every where against them, and
forcing them at the point of the bayonet od to
ward Richmond. It was their turn now to break
and run; and their losses of the Sabbath left them
little cause for rejoicing over the trifling gain of
Saturday.
Terribly did,the rebels suffer =this as well as
the 'previous day, from the well directed fire of
Our lartillerl; piling the ground' with the slain.
Terrible also to them were the frequent charges
of. our solid columni, preeting then back, step

them many of their,offieers as well as pri

Washington, by three thousand majority. The
Unionists Carried ever7thing. -
It is belleredthat the eieitetrient, and digress
of the Richmond population, who have perhaps .
lost themselves • in the fight, will'greatly'tend to
confuie and demoralise the rebel , army, re
pulsed and driven in upon that now frantic town.
'Mani think that.an evacuation will be a noses : ,
city, and that 'Mir last battle hero& entering
Richmond has been fought.
Geri. Sigel has been ordered to Harper's Ferry,
where he will be assigned a command. •
The guns taken' from Casey's division in the
commencement of the fight, were all recaptured;
Our army is within four• miles of Richmond.
The War Department has not ' received any'
further details of the late battle in front of Rich.:

rebels from their advanced batteries.
Major General W. T. Sherman established
another heavy battery yesterday afternoon, with

Three of our , divisions are already in the enemy's

enomy's position and. 'works in front of Corinth,
were
,expeedingly ,strong and he cannot , get w
strongel'position in his flight. This morning he'
destroyed an immense' amount of public and
private property—stoves,—wagons, tents, etc.
For miles. out of the town the i roads. are filled
with arms, haveriacks, etc., thrown away by his
flying troops. A large number of prisoners and
deserters have been captured, estimated by. Gen.
Pope, at two thousand.
Gen. Beauregard evidently distrusted his army
or he would haVe defended'so strong a position.
His troops are generally 'much discouraged and
demoralized. In all their engagements for the
Jew gays their resistance has been weak.

Beauregard's Report of -the Battle 'of Shiloh.
Geic.`Beauregard's report of the battle of Pitts
burgh Landing, has been slants
a victory on Sunday, and. that he fell back in
good order on Monday, before fyesh troops and
greatly superior forces. He givis the casualties
as follows :
It remains to state that our loss in, the two
days in the killed outright was 1,728 ; Wounded,
8;012; missing, 959 making 'an aggregate Of
casualties of 10,699.
The ,Baltimore and Ohio Railroad;
I 'The raid of the rebels ill the valley of the She
nandoah came well-nigh. Proving a diiastroni
.blow to this unfortunate road, and communicaL
tion is not:yet open between Wheeling and Bal
timore—the rebels.having done some damage to
the road in 'the vicinity 'Of Martiniburg. When
the news 'reached Martinsburg that a large' force
of rebels were advancing toward. the line of the
-road, there were not liss than 400 freight cars
and 40 locomotives at that place. Of, course, it
was very deairable to place these beyond danger,
and it, was done in the most expeditious manner.
Of the 400 ears at Martinsburg, about one-half
were laden with coal and marked for Baltimore;
•while 110' were filled with _merchandise, for the
West, and contained cargoes of a valuable char
acter. For instance, three or four cars filled
with not less'than one thoutiand bags of prime
Rio" coffee;'while others were picked with choice
groceries. Happily, all those were saved from
the rebels---some moving Bast and some. West..
It, is gratifying to state that in consequence of
the' eitraordinary fairilities of the road, the col
umn. of Gen. Banks has already received a re
inforcement of at 'east 18,000 well disciplined
troops at Harper'S Ferry.. Several carloads of
siege guns, each, weighing. about six tons, have
also been sent ; from. the Washington Navy
Yard.

• • • GREAT BRITAIN.
The English journals continue to• expatiate on
the retiest froin.Yorktown and the fall of New`
Orleans.
,The Times treatelhe.retreat from Yorktown as
a great' reverse to the Confederates, and says if
:Richmond is captiared; it' will be'a tremendous
4iototir io•the ;Nationale. It metaphorically en
larges on the difficulties that must arise in gov
erningliie South when the Nationale byoontinued
victories'have brought the Secessionists within
their power. . .
The Daily News says , although the fall of Noir-
Orleans, in a military sense, cannot be overrated,
it is of far greater iinportance in its social, com
mercial and political results, as the posaesaion of
the Mississippi, opens the way, for . the, industrial
energy of freedom, and altogether destroys the
political potition and teriitorial'prestige 'of the
Southern Confederacy. The great territories of
the West are lost to the Slave Confederation; and
this alone is a. 'suitable recompense for all , that
has been spent on the war. .It is an enormous ;
gain, not only for the Union, but for Europe, for
humanity and civilization. It praises the North
for conducting the struggle as free citizens (night
to do. 41 •
In another, article the Daily News defends the
financial policy of the North from the calumnies
of 'its foes. It;
,financial s ays the position fur
nishes a striking.proof of the' oonatincy Ora free
people ; the true wiedom.of their rulers;rdying
OD that constancy.
The Morning Herald . shows grounds under,
Which, after the decision of events at Corinth,
New-Orl . 4uas may be recaptured. It regards the
possession of New-Orleans as of the most vital
EM=gll
political' and commercial importance to the
South.
The Morning Post thinks the present position
of affairs eminently favorable for effecting a com
promise acceptable to both, tint admits that it
will be no easy task to reconcile the require
ments of both.
The Liverpool Post regards the war as virtually
at an 'end, and looks for the proclamation of
peace at any moment.
