SECOND DAYS BATTLE.

Gen. Buell. having arrived the follow
ing evening, in the morning the ball was
opened at daylight simultaneously bv
Gen. Nelson's division, on the left, and
Mai. Gen. Wallacc's division on the
right. Gen. Nelson's force opened a
most CALLING fire, and advanced rapidly
as they fell back. The fire soon became
general along the whole line, and began
to tell with terrible effect on the enemy.
Generals Netherlands Sherman's
and Hurlburt's men, though terribly
jaded from the previous days fighting
still maintained their honcrs won at
Donelson, but the resistance Of the
rebels at all points was terrible and
worthy of better cause; but they
were not enough for our undannted
bravery and the dreadful deenla,ion
produced BY our artillery, which was
sweeping them away like chaff before
the wind. But knowing that defeat
here would be death blow
to their hopes, and that tleir all depend
ed on this great struggle, their Generals
urged them on in the face Of destruction,
hoping by hanking us on the right to
tnrn the tide Of battle.
Their success was again for time
cheering, as they bagan to gain ground
on appearing to have been reinforced,
but our left under Gen. Nelson was
driving them, and. with wonderful "a
pldity, and by eleven o'clock Gen. BIZ
ellis forces had succeeded in fankins
them, and capturing the battery Of ar
tillery.
They, however, again rallied on the
left and rccrossed, and the right forced
themselves forward in another desper-
ate effort, hut reinforcements from Gen.
Wood and Thomas were comm. in reg
iment after regiment, which were sent
to Gen. Buell., who had again commence
ed to drive the enemy. About p. IA.
Gen. Grant wrode to the left whore the
fresh regiments had been ordered, and
finding The rebels wavering, sent por-
ton Of his body guard to the head of
each five regiments, and then ordered
charge across the field, himself leading.
As he brandished his sword and waved
them on to the browning victory, while
cannon balls were fallinglike hail around
him, the men followed with shout
that sounded above the roar and din of
the artillery, and the rebels fed in dis
may as from destroying avalanche,
and never made another stand.
Gen. Buell. followed the retreating
rebels, driving them ia splendid style,
and by half past five o'clock the whole
rebel army was in full retreat to Corinth,
with our cavalry in hot pursuit, with
what further results is not known, not
having returned to this hour. We
have taken large amount Of their ar
tillery, and also number Of prisoners.
We lost number of Our forces who
were taken prisoners yesterday, among
whom is Gen. Prentiss.
The number Of our forcs taken has
not been ascertained, yet it is reported
at several hundred.
Gen. Prentiss is also reported wound
ed.
Among the killed on the rebel side
was their General-in-Chief. A. Sidney
Johnston, who was struck by cannon
ball on the p. m. Of Sunday. Of this
there is no doubt, as the report is corob-
Grated by several rebel officers taken
to-day. i is furthcrreporSd that Ger.

C0ld-blooded Rebel Murder of a Chicago
Man.

COld-blOOded Rebel Murder of q Chicago
Man.
From the Chicago Tribune, 29;b.
The Atlanta (Ga) Contederacy of the
10th, contains a loug extract from the
the following signal instance of the atro-
cious and savage spirit of the rebel armies.
1t will be read with especial interest as the
victim was formerly resident OF this city !:
Many of the women and children escaped
from Norfolk, and others were in great dis
tress at not being able to get away. We hear
that groups of ladies in the streets, with tears
in their eyes, appealed to our hurryiDg sol
ders to protect them. One hasty sympathzer
with the Yankees is reported 10 have been
killed by our troops. The report, as we get
it from q passenger from Norfolk is that
man by the name of Parham, said to lie a
brother of the Provost Marshal, seeing a Con.
federate artillery company driving through the
streets, and installing them for Yankee troops,
dashed into the street, waving his hat, and
bawlDg, "Hurrah for Lincoln" He was i'm.
mediatey seized and put to death by our
troops!
This victim of cold, blooded butchery was
named William G. Farhem. He came to
this city about the first of January, 1860,
and remained here eighteen months. He
was native OF Petersburg, Virginia, and
all his relatives were rank and bitter seces-
sionists. His father held commission as
captain, and his brother as lieutenant in
Virginia regiment. During his stay With
US be received frequent letters from bis fam
lily, urging and commanding him to return
and join the rebel army. threatening to dis
own him 10 Gaze of refusal. 10 spite of all
these threats, be was strong Union man,
although he never made display of bis pa
triotism, and rarely talked upon political
topics. His strong Union sentiments at
last be could not conceal, and they have
resulted in bis untimeIy death.

KEEP 1T BEFORE THE PEOPLE
THAT GEORGE LANDON is A
DISUNIONIST.

We quote from debate in the Senate
March 1lth, 1862.
Mr.. CLYMER. Mr.. Speaker, the
Senator from Bradford asserts that "this
question of slavery meets us everywhere,
it meets us here, at home, and Oh the
stern and bloody battle field" and ex.
claims in excited and angry terms "ace
must meet It," But how? Unnecessarily
IN one ofthree ways" says the Senator.
"First-we can submit to be ruled and
ruined by it. Second-ae can continue
as aoe haze been aoing-fght the rebellion
'eiM one hand,a hold up slavery aoitA tie
other, until both parties are exhausted .
then settle our d!6ically By a1lOaoing or By
compelling lie Seceds5g States TO .faN back
mio tile Union acith Siavery, Slave repre-.
sentatin and all us concomitants as qf0re-
time. have feared" says the Senator
from Bradford, "there a0ere TOO many men,
in high places vho desire thaS mode Of set.
tteneiH. But the Senator asserts 'this
would be false and fallacious cure for
existing ills. Let no one delude himself
and others, by pointing to this as the
pathway from the wilderness to the prom.
ised land. IL neUer Shoula, 10 neUer can,
IL never wiH be done."
There you have it, sir! There is no
mistaking the position of the Senator from
Bradford, and his followers. He and
they will never, no, never! consent that
this constitution shall be maintained as it
is, and the Union restored as it was. Oh,
no, sir He and they assert, ''it never
should never can,it never will be done. :"
| hold him and them to all the conse-
quences of this reasonable and rebelious
position.

BSy> Our readers will all recollcct with
what gusto the Republ,can abolitionist pub
lished Landon's speech in reply to ely
mer; aud endorsed it as the greatest speech
DC &c. We charge that Mr.. Clark was
defeated by Abolitionists, and that DR..
John was in the ring to assist. Now in
order TO show what Landon is we COPY
from the speech thus praised by DR.. John,
Harrisburg Ic'egraph and others; and
we quote from the Telegraph.
He said
"Congress should abolish slavery in the
District OF Columbia upon terms equitable
and just. Then they should declare the
slaves Of all rebels free, as they voritably
are.
Again:
"The country will not be ruined until
the people Of the free States consent to its
destruction. When they restore and per-
petuate slavery, their consent is given, the
die is east, the deed done. You have
then only to wait in melancholy mood for
the bitter harvest o! !rotributivc justic. If
F, that harvest fail to come, then arc the laws
Of nature reversed, and the divine govern.
ment failure.
And yet again
"Irepeat, what have these Abolitionists
done! Have they invaded any man S
rights p? yes" the response was, John
Brown did," Yes, he did, sir. And then
the donble charge is that those Abolition,
lists sung a song to his memory. l never

but if l had | mO~M at least haze joiuea IN
The chorus. With regard to john Brown

of five companies of our Regiment, under
storm of fire; the five companies num-
bering about 200 men, out Of whom 81
were killed and wounded. The balance
of the Regiment were not engaged, though
they were under fire. The Bucktails and
the 9th commenced the Battle of Sharps,
burg late on Tuesday evening, and were
in line all of Tuesday night, skirmishng
with the enemy, and opened the battle in
earnest at daylight, yesterday. There
has never before been so much blood shed
in one day on tho American continent, as
yesterday. The loss on both sides being
not less than fifty thousand. None of my

b9- DR.. John having waited patiently
until assured by the telegraph and news
papers, on Saturday last, that General
Mcclellan had driven all the rebels out Of
Maryland, and that "PennSyjuania acaS

teered, and on Monday following, hastily
getting together few men, started to Har.

tS5~ The most disgraccluI act of the
present war seems to be the surrender of
Harper's Ferry, with twelve thousand
men, fifty guns, and an untold amount of
ammunition. The guns and ammunition
were used against us in Tuesdays fight.
AS it turns out, the somewhat notorious
Tom Ford, of Ohio,is the culpable party
having shown the white feather whilst in
possession of the heights cemmanding the
store house and troops under Col, miles.
This interIered sadly with the calculation
of Gen. Mcclellan in his fierce encounter
next day, with a foe flushed with success
and well supplied with artillery andam-
muniton taken from u.s. AlIdhis will not
save them, however. General Mcclellan
will wip them to their hearts content, not
only out Of Maryland, but out of Virgin.
ia, and we confidently expect to sec the
whole thing wound up by Hlllow Eve.
