A ridiculous rumor having obtained
credence Throughout the country, that
Pennsylvania was not represented in the
late gallant fight at Shiloh, Gen. A. Nc
Dowell M'Cook writes Gov. Curtin the
following noble and soldierly acknowl-
edgment, so honorable to the gallantry
and proyerbial devotion Of the Pennsyl-
yania soldier Col. Stambaugh is among
the bravest men in the service, while the
regiment under his command will bear
itself equal with any similar number of
men in any fight in which they may be
engaged. We submit General M'Cook' S
letter as a glorious evidence of the gal
lantry of the men of the keystone State :

SIR Both justice and inclination
prompt me to bring to your notice the
bravery, GOODNESS and discipline of the
77th regiment, Pennsylvania volunteers,
(Col. Stambangh's,) which was part OF
the division | had the honor to command
in the battle of Shiloh. The only Penn
sylvania regiment on the field, it bore
without reproach, the banner of the Key
stone State through the thickest of the
fight, and won for her a wreath, which
may, with pride, be placed beside those
gathered upon the fields Of the Revolu,
ton and in Mexico.
