Clagett has erected battery in the
shape of ten thousand dollar libel suit,
from behind which he pursues his daily
warfare of calumny and meaness.
-Clagett says that We were cowhid-
ed, and that the Records Of the District
Court-ten years ago-vill prove it.
They will prove it about as much as the
records Of the District Court will in the
future prove, that he got ten thousand
dollars for his character. These Records
may prove that an attempt was made in
both cases, but they prove that the man
who in the FIRST case undertook the Job,

-Clagett is arguing up his Islander

chiyalry or anybody else. that he has nj
been guilty of very mean and contempti-

DEAR PARENTs:-I am here in the

among the wounded. Our regimen,

10Th and we made a gallant charge
against the fort last Saturday afternoon
with the bayonet, and drove the rebels
from the breastworks on the left Of the
Notifications. We did not fire q gun
until We got on the trenches then we
gave them fits-but they gave us fits
before we got to them. They killed
Captain Slaymaker, and broke Holmes
leg above the knee, and put two buck
shot through my right arm. One went
through the diamond Of my cheveron,
through the inside Of my arm, just miss
ing the bone; the other just outside Of
the bone and not very deep, making
only one hole-so l will have three
marks to show tor nv part of the fight
After l was shot, fired four shots and
loaded sixteen more with my left hand,
and Sergeant Mcneil fired them for me.
Doolittle was hit three times once in
lower bowels or groin, but is out Of
danger. think the doctor said we had
about six Of our company killed and over
twelve wounded. Mite are mere flesh
wounds, but l will not be able to handle

chance for furlough. will write
again in few days.

with the wounded Of some other regi-

l send you a Tennessee paper that
one Of the boys got out Of the fort:
Give it to Sanders after you read it. 1t

may be later Southern news than he has
got.
There had been some fighting at the
fort two days before we got there. l
was in it on Saturday, the 18th. They
surrendered on Sunday, 10th, about
$4,000 prisoners. Floyd and Pillow
and some Of the secesh ran away on
Saturday night, but we have got Buck
ner and Pope.
The notifications extended about
three miles up and down the river and
from one to one and half miles back,
and was so large place that the gun.
boats could not hurt them,
have very good quarters here, and
you must not get uneasy, for my wounds
are slight, being merely flesh wounds.
You need not write until | write again,
for if they take our reg .ment's sick to
any other place | will 60 with them.
Yours truly,

MOVING FORWARD.

No time is being lost. In stopping
at different points to administer little
wholesome punishment to rebels or

moving forward towards the Gull. =

serious character need be apprehendcd
What, then, is the true condition OF
affairs: There are now only three
States over which our flag does not

the rebels have no foothoid. A glance
at the map will show that Virginia J.
now nearly surrounded. Her immense
army might as well be withdrawn at
once; there is no longer anything tor II
10 do.
The fight will very soon be confined
entirely to the cotton States-or rather
the States that border on the Gulf d
Mexico and Georgia, South and North
Carolina. In the latter State we have a
strong foolhold and powerful force to
maintain it. In South Carolina and
Georgia there is also formidable Fed
cral force, and the chances are that tho
chief cities OF both States are within TIT
grasp Of our men. Florida is being vel
