From the CAB,

CuMpERLAND GAP, TENN, june 6, 1862.
Mr.. Editor:--As some of the readers of your
paper are Carolinians, and would perhaps like to
hear from us, therefore write you short letter,
which you may give publicity if you choose to
do so. All is quiet here now. The vandals have
given us but little trouble since we rcpulsed them
here on the Goth April They occasionally send
us word that they intend to take this place, but
prudence has thus far dictated to them to keep
out of gun-shot of our sharp shooters. We are
well prepared to give them an animated reception.
If they mako an attack here, bona idc, several
of them will ego up for ninety days
Our regiment Goth n. C.,) re organized on the
LIST ult r. b. Vance was reelected Colonel; j..
NJ. Lowry, Lieut.. Colonel; Gardner, Maj. Dr..
Nelson, of Asheville, n. c., is made Surgeon of
the regiment. Those who acquainted with
Dr. n. say that he is n skillful physician. Our
Company GAY re organized on the lst ut. I. s.
Anderson was reelected Captain; j. NJ. Shearer,
LIST Lieut.; N. b. Hill, I'd Lieut.; John j. john
son. Sd Lieut.. The health Of this regiment is
better now than it has been ut any time
since we left Camp Vance, n. G.
man bclongingto the 23d Alabama regiment
is sentenced to be shot on 10 foI dcsortion
will trouble You no further.
Yours, truly, IIErTENANT.

Beauregard's Evacuation of Cor.
NTH

The following reasons are assigned by
Dr. j. Z. Mott, in letter TO the Mobile
.ddrcrtiser, for the evacuation of Corinth.
The letter, it is proper TO state, was writ
ten many days before the evacuation
took place, but was not, for prudential
reasons, published
"lst Water is very scarce and bad,
and our army is suffering greatly with
sickness.
III. The enemy are more advantage
ously posted in point Of health, and have
received very large reinforcements.
3D. If we should be defeated, it would
be the destruction of the army of the
Mississippi.
4th. II we were 10 win battle, it
would be after such desperate struggle
that it would cost us far more than we
can now afford. Our army would be so
cut to pieces that we should have moth
ing left to operate against the enemy's
troops on the Gulf and the Mississippi
river.
9th. There is nothing at Cornih to
fight for. The Railroad to the East is
cut off from us. The enemy can take
Fort Pillow whenever they choose to take
the matter seriously in hand. The whole
country for fifty miles around is foraged
out by our army, and the,enemy can find
nothing but disease 90 starvation in
our rear. They cannot possibly advance
into the interior in any direction where
they would not be surrounded by enc.
mics.
If we can keep such an army as we
have now, we can, in the course of the
summer, cut up in detail any army they
may attempt to send out freach Of their
gunboats.
The Fabian policy is certainly the best
for us in our present condition. The
United States Government is wasting
away under its millions Of expense a day.
and we can certainly defend our fireslaes
longer than they can keep up such q
war q thousand miles from their resourc-
es. Every hundred miles they come in
creases their expenses in geometrical
ratio.
Our generals will no doubt take every
means of impeding their progress and
annoying them, and if they will keep q
few hundred men scattered along the
railroads they can render them worthless
to the enemy.

The Loss in Gen. Banks Army,

The Albany IN. W Argus says:
The loss in the disastrous defeat and
flight of Gen. Banks will, it is feared,
prove very heavy. No official account
can yet be obtained but by roundabout
ways something of the extent Of the loss
can be gathered. A dispatch sent to Mont

Vermont cavalry, mostly from that neigh
borhood, are missing, including Major
Collins, Capt. Bean, and Lieutenant
Ward and Deniorth. In company A.

wards, ana Corporal Grost, Reynolds and
Whipple, all officers The loss of stores
will also prove to have been very great.
The Pittsburg Chronicle learns that it will
amount to at least two millions of dol
lars. It's correspondent writes in pri-
vatc letter: "There has been an immense
loss but it will not do to put it on paper
A portion of the supply train was cut off,
wagons burned up on the road, large
quantities Of stores and forage destroyed
and in crossing here (Williamsport,
there was great loss of stores" In fact
as new accounts are received, the tigh
appears to have been more and more dis
astrous to life and droperty.
