THEGRANDAR-
MY MOVING.
ADVANCE TO YORKTOWN.
THE SEIGE BEGUN !!

MllWauRce, Aprii o.
The operations at Yorktown and For
tress Munroe yesterday in the enemv's
works were carefully examined by Gen.
Mcclellan and found to be very strong
and the approaches difficult. The enc
my WAS in force and the water batteries
Mt Yorktown and Gloucester are to be
much increased.
1t seems plain that mortars and seige
guns must be used for assaulting.
Another dispatch states that York
town will fall, but not without seige of
twoor three days. Ship Point had been
taken and our guhboats had sheiled out
the batteries.
That portion of the army of the Po-
tomac. recently concentrated at Old Point,
advanced yesterday morning in the di-
re ton of Yorktown, IA miles diStnnt -
The right was assigned TO Gen. Morril's
brigade of Gen. Pofters division, seven
companies of the Sd Pennsylvania cav
airy and portion of Berdan's Sharp
shooters acting as skirnishers.
Nothing OF interest took place until
their arrival at Big Bethel, 2 miles dis
tant, where they met the outer tickets
Of the rebels. The troops were delayed
there two hours, constructing bridge
which had been destroyed.
Tho enemy letreated before the adj
vance of our skirmishers to Howard's
Greek, where they had some abandoned
earthworks. Shots were fired here by
the tbeIs from two field pieces, which
were soon silenced by tae Fourth Rhode
Island battery, when the rebels beat
hasty retreat, taking their pieces with
them.
The main body of the army rested
here for the night, while MorriIFs brig
ade advanced three miles to Cucklcyille,
six miles from Yorktown.
BY I o'clock this Saturday morning,
the column was again in motion, end by
10 o'clock was in front Of the enemy's
works Mt Yorktown.
The first shot fired was by tho rebels,
the shell passing over the beads of Gen.
Porter and staff, without exploding
The batteries Of Grffin's Sd and 4th
Rhode Island aud 9TH Massachusetts,
were placed ia position, replying to every
shot sent by The rebels. The cannona-
ding continued with slight iuterlnission
until dark. About 400 shots were fired
by both parties during the day. The
loss on our side was three killed and
some five wounded.
The position of the enemy is strong
one. From present indications their for
tifications extend some two miles in
length, and mount heavy guns. The
ground in front of their guns is low and
awampy.

THE SEIGE OF YORKTOWN
PROGRESSING.
THE MERRIMAC EXPECTED.

Baltimore, April 9.
The Merrimac is confidently expected
with seven other gunboats on the first
favorable day. The weather is cold and
foggy.
Latest from Yorktown says that every
thing is progressing favorably. and bat
tie is not expected within day or two.
The storm which arose Monday after
noon and continued through Tuesday,
doubtless prevented the Merrimqc from
coming OUT as she intended. She is now
looked for confidently as soon as tie
weather permits.
The Merrimac was lying eff Crancy
Island, the Yorktown, jamestown, Tea
yer, and four small tugs in company with
her, all under steam.
The storm must have been severely
felt in the army now advancing up the
peninsula, deprived as they are to a great
extent of shelter an tents, and colnpell-
ed to constant VA chfuiness in the face
Of the enemy. the roads none too good
before, will be brought to a horrible con-
dtion, and the public must not be impa-
tent in expecting early results from The
EXPEDITION.
Prescott journal. [volume] (Prescott, Wis.) 1861-1871, 1862-04-16

Gen. Buell., with Nelson's division, ar
rived at four o'clock. and turned the tide
battle. The enemy. commanded by
Polk and Beauregard, suspended the at
tack about six o'clock. On Monday
morning our troops, having rested on
the field, being reinforced by Nelson's
division and supported by the gunboats,
drove the enemy back and occupied our
former position, Immediately followed by
several thousand cavalry who at last
accounts were some miles beyond Corinth.
The 7ribvne's dispatch placs our loss
at from 600 to 1000 killed, and from
5000 to 1000 wounded the rebel loss
twice that number. Six of our batteries
were taken and retaken six times.
The Times SAYS that Beauregard had
given orders not to DESTROY any camp
equipage taken Sunday, as he expected
q complete victory next day. s.z---.-.

Tragic Incident Of the War.

The following, from the Washington
Star, we presume relates to The case OF
Mrs. Munsell, says the Albany 1rgus.
The present war abounds in material
for future poets dramatists. and novel
lists. Only few DAYS since we heard
incidentally of sad romance, more
affecting than anything i'll the pages of
Scott and Dickens.
A young man Of rare attainments, the
son of an eminent lawyer of Albany.
left his northern home a few years since
to seek fame and fortune in the sunny
South. He settled at Clarksville, Ten
nessee, where his manly character, soon
gained him scores of friends. lie estab-
Eshcd q seminary there, and in ear
or two married II native" young
lady Of great personal attractions and Of
the most amiable character.
Shortly after the secession in Tonnes
see the Seminary was broken up: most
of the pupils enlisted, and the head OF
the establi 5hment succumbcd to the pres
sure, and enlisted also. Before leaving
home, he told his wife TO collect his debts,
settle his affairs and make herself rs COM
Portable rs possible among her friends,
until happier times. As for himself lie
would desert as soon as he got within
sight of the Potomac. and rejoin his
family in Albany, until tho times were
settled. The parting was a sad one, but
the husband promised TO write often, and
an occasional letter from lin during the
next few months chcerel the dropping
spirits of his helpmate. The letters
ceased finally. and the devoted wife, fear
full for the fate of her husband, could not
he reconcied; but in spite of the pro-
testations Of her friends, signitied her de-
termination to make her way 10 her hus-
bands Northern home, perhaps 10 rejniu
him-at least with the expectation of
hearing from him. She left his bust
ness affairs unsettled, and started ut once
After innumerable trials sho reach d
Albany, and found that her husband 5
family were in utter ignorance of his fate
they knew nothing, and had heard
nothing from him since the stoppage of
the mails. The feelings Of this faithful
and loving wife may lie imagined. =
Weary months passed, and still no
tidincs of the absent one were received.
AT length came news of the fall of Fort
Donelson, and a short time after mum.
Der Of the secession prisoners passed
through Albany, on their way eastward.
These the venerable father ca yerly ques-
toned, but they knew nothing Of his
son. He had almost given up in des-
pair; but finally one of the prisoners
flippanily observed, in reply to the
questioned asked him, "What, tho Pro
fesor? Oh; yes be was shot last sum-
mer for desertion." The particulars OF
the attempted escape and the subsequent
execution were elected from the prisoner.

the bereased parents and wife yet mourn
the loss Of the patriotic son and husband.

1.-THE followir exquisite poem was written
in camp, after battle, and sent by soldier
father to his children at home. 1t will stir
good thoughts at any freside, to read il
aloud.l
Darlings-I am very pining;
Shadows fall across my way
I can hardly see the lining
OF the cloud-the silver lining,
Turning darkness into day.
l am weary of the signing
Manufacturing through the air;
Breaking hearts, i'll anguish crying
For the lost ones-for the dying;
Sobbing anguish Of despair.
am weary of the fighting;
Brothers, red with brothers gore;
Only that the aerong we're righting,-
Truth ard Honor's battle fighting
would draw my sword no more.
am pining, dearest, pining,
For your kisses on my check
For your dear arms round me twining,
For your soft eyes on me shining.
For your loved words, darlings-speak.
Tell me. in your earnest prattle,
Of the olive branch and dove
Call me from the lannon's rattle
Take my thoughts away from battle:
Fold mo ,-o,,r Il ruCt
Darlings-I am weary pining;
Shadows fall across MY way;
/ can hardly see the lining
OF the cloud-the silver lining.
Turning darkness into day.

HOW WILL YOU DO 1T?

It 10 CERTAINLY tresome to keep on ex-
posing absurdities and errors but if We
were to be satisfied with a simple denial
and exposure of untruth, then-not TO
put too fiuo point upon it--tho devil
would have his. own way easily. All
that falsehood wants is to be 10. alone.-
It is all that treason wants-all that any
crime wants.
The present error that cries aloud for
reiterated correction is the querulous
complaint What is the use = Sup
pose YOU beat 'em wherever they make q
stand. Don't YOU see that they all run
away {? On the shores of the Potomac
in the Virginia ValIey-at Newbern-
they all 90 off with the army, except the
old people and the slaves. Come, now,
Jou NAV beat, but you can not conquer.
They may hold out, but they can not Sc
cure their independence. 1t is as broad
as it is long. Sooner or later you've got
to compromise"
Compromise what I? What is there to
compromise Here are n crowd Of
rebels, organized, drilled, intrenched,
resoIute, who defy the Government Of
;he nation. Either they must succeed in
bringing the Government to terms, or
the Government must reduce them. If
they can compel the Government to agreh
that they shall obey wp0n certain coadi
tons, then they are successful, and the
Government Is oyerthrown. Suppose
that South Carolina agrees to cease nc
tive hostility upon condition that she shall
have the fonts III her harbor, and that
the United States will allow her to disre
gard tue tariff Or suppose that jeff
Davis SAYS that he will do what he can to
disband the rebel armies, on condition
that the Administration will agree that 4
STAKEHOLDER may take and hold his slaves
any where in the country In that case
jeff Davis merely dictates terms to n
conquered enemy. If you will do this
lie says, will lay down My arms; if not,
I'll fight on.
Besides, practically, jeff Davis is but
a single rebel. He may make lis own
terms; bat how can he bind any other
rebel And the Administration of our
Government may accept terms which the
next Administration may repudiate. So
that the war is only suspended; and only
suspended because neither side has con-
CURED.
There can be no compromise, because
there are no grounds for compromise.
\ compromi,e belongs TO peaceful legis-
lation. Equal legislators say TO each
other, If YOU will favor me in this, l will
favor you in that. That is a compro-
mise. But if two commanders meet at
the head of armies, and one says TO the
other, g. If you will give me Your arms
and 90 home | will not fire. and the
other assents, that is not a compromise,
it is a surrender, bloodless victory
Or suppose, in the midst of the fight in
Hampton Roads, the Nerrimac had said
to the Monitor, Let US each turn aboat
and 90 home;" that would be a compro-
mise. But what would be settled by it (!
Each would only have waited for the
other to come out again.
In our war we have to beat absolute
", or to be absolutely beaten.
