The Army of the Potomac,

The army Of the Potomac was originally
230. 900 strong. Prior to the 9th Of April
according to the testimony Of the Assistant
Secretary Of war, Tucker, Mcclellan had
120, 600 men at Yorktown. Subsequent
ly. Franklin's division. 10000; McCalfs
division, 10000; III, 900 from Baltimore
and Fortress Monroe. and Shields divis-
ion. 5000, were sent 10 him, making a
total Of $4,000. Gems Meigs and Walls
worth testified that Mcclellan had ell he
asked for. Only nine regiments were left to
guard Washington. The correspondent Of
the Commercial telegraphs that the respon-
sibility for Balls Bluff is divided between
Stone and Mcclellan; yet Stone was sent
to Fort Warren. while McClellen has been
suffered to hold in his hands the destinies
Of this great nation. 1t is known that the
President said, on his return from James
river. that Mcclellan conld account for on
" half the men sent to linn. OF the '15S.
900 brave men he had upon the Peninsula,
only $1,000 were effective when the battles
commenced: and when he finally landed on
James river. only sc. 00c could be muster
ed for active duty. Thus from the time he
landed at York town to the beginning Of the
great battles no lost, it seems. in various
ways, "a, 900, and between the landing and
the close Of the seven days fighting, SO, 600
out of 158. 900 had been killed. had died

they are now before the country. The pic

sickening to think thst the finest army the

sacrificed and nothing accomplished---

My Dean SIR:-I am as jealous of the
good opinion Of my friends as / am care

yonr kind expressions in regard to Order
No. % leads me to say word to you on
the subject.
That it ever could have been so miscon-

the Northern press is wonderful, and would
leai one to exclaim with the Jews, 90,
Father Abraham, what these Christians
are. whose own harl dealings teach them
to suspect the very thoughts of Others"
What was the state of things to which
the women order applied?
We were $500 mcn in city seven

themselves lalics. toward my. soldiers and
officels. from the windows Of houses and
in the streets. How long do you suppose
our flesh aud blood coulJ have stood this
without resort. That would lead to dis
turhances and liot, from which we must
clear the streets with artillery and then
howl that. we, had murdered these fine

No order could he made save one that

Pray how do you treat common woman
plying her vocation in the streets? You
pass her buy nnhecded She cannot in

will take no notice Of her. If she speaks.
her words are not opprobrious. tits only
when she becomes continuous aud posi-
tive nuisance that you call watchman and
give her in charge OF him. -,
Bu some of the Northern editors seem
to think that whenever one meets, such a
woman, one must stop her. talk with her,
insult her. or hold dalliance with her, and
SO from their own conduct they construed
my order. ,.g.a
Why. these she adders Of New Orleans
themselves were at once shamed into pre-

that day no women has either insulted OF

The Fight at Murfreesbsro.


The attack was made on Sunday morn
ing at 4 o'clock. upon the cavalry and
Michigan regiment. they being completely
surprised. So large was the attacking
party that the infantry could not form in
line of battle. and after fighting as best they
could for several hours, the Michigan reg
iment surrendered. Our cavalry was OF
no assistance whatever; not man monnt-
ed his horse, and but one or two escaped
In the meantime, a portion of the ene-
my had burned the railroad depot. freight
house. containing commissary stores. and
a large warehouse, containing forage, and
Quarternsster's stores. Having COMPEL.
ed the surrender of the cavalry and infant
~ in town, they broke for the battery
Col. Lester had been advised of the tack,
and placed the battery upon a knoll quar-
ter Of mile from his camp. with his own
regiment to support it. The rebels passed
around to the north of the camp, and dri
wing through il. burned the officers tents
and killed or wounded the guards. AS
they came out OF the woods to make the
attack. Col. Lester retained his fire until
they were withen forty PAGES of him, when
the battery was opened upon them. They
were completely disorganized. and retired
in the greatest confusion. Upon the next
charge the infantry and battery both fired,
and the enemy was thrown into confusion
second time.
Not ieiishing such treatment. a portion
OF the rebels went round to the rear, for the
purpose of attacking in the rear as well as
in the front. This, however. vas of nc
avail. for Col. Lester formed his men in a
square. and Capt. Hewett directed his pie
ces both ways.
third attempt was made to cut the
brave men to pieces, but the result was the
same as before. The rebels retired for a.
while. and Capt. Hewitt turned his pie
ces upon the town. Smelling il in the most
approved style. 1t is said that the town
was badly damaged, and at last accounts
was on fire in several places.
The fighting commenced again at noon,
and continued undated until three o'clock,
when flag of truce from the enemy APP
peared. stating that the Michigan 9.h sur
rendered early in the day. and demanding
an unconditional surrender Of the forces.
Col. Lester rode into town, under pro-
lection Of the flag of truce. and ascertain
Ell that he had TO encounter a force Of a.
bout four thousand. and that he could re-
ly only on his own little handful Of men to
sustain himself. His ammunition. too.
had nearly given out, the battery having
only sixty five rounds of case and SOL
i'll shot. and the infantry bat a few
rounds of cartridge left. He returned. and.
after consultation with Captain Hewitt
and his officers. was determined to snr-
render. which was done at about five F. NJ
The only loss that we can learn among
the officers is the killing of Capt. Rounds.
OF the Michigan 9tb Neither the battery
nor the Third Minnesota lost any. officer.
About twelve men Of the Third were kill
ei. 1t is thought that at least one hun
dred and fifty of the rebels must have been
killed.
