INTERVENING FROM TEN

Rebels AZ lIumhOidt-A Mem
phis Paper on fhc Fail OF New
Oricnns--Its DcspOnding view
OF Confederate Affairs.

CAIRO, April 30.
a refugee from Memphis -cpo,ts that
Humboldt, Tenn, is occupied by small
rebel force, engaged in throwing up de.
fcnsiye works. He brings Memphis pa.
pers Of the goth. They contain little
matter Of interest further than the con-
iirmation of the fall of New Orleans.
The Avalanche grumblcs that the reb-
el authorities suppress the details in re-
gard to the affair, and says that nothing
but the bare fact Of the surrender is
known.
The same paper says Southern people
are fast losing oil confidence in their riy-
or defences. II is generally admitted
that the Federal army can be no longer
successfully resisted 1t also intmates
lack Of confidence in the stability OF
the Southern ConfederacY, by advising
lis patrons to invest whatever money they
have in real estate, while purchases can
be made in the money now in crculO-
tion, which is principally rebel Treasury
notes.
The conscription law is rlgidly enlorc-
ed, and Union men are secretiDg them
selves, OF flying to avoid its operation.
Refugee reports merchants of ayowed
Secession proclivities, removing their
goods TO places Of coneealment AID secu-
rity. Large numbers of families are NOV
ing away daily. The idea of burning the
town is abandoned in consequence of
the determined opposition Of properly
holders.
IL is currently reported at Memphis
that Beauregard has not exceeding 60,-
900 men at Corinth. No hope of his sue

lieved to have 200 ,000.

Lieut.. Gcv. Stanton, in his report q
Gov. Tod, thds speaks in reference to the
conduct of Ohio troops at the butte o
Shiloh:
At the risk Of being charged with i'm.
pcrtinencc, ! must be permitted TO give
my opinion of the part which the Ohio
troops played the late battle at PittsLurp
Landing.
/ have spent two dnys upon the batilc
ground, in con tant intercourse W ith cfi-
GERS and men OF all grades and ranks,
from Major Generals commanding divis-
ions, 10 privntes in the ranks, and have
ayailod myself OF these facilities To the
utmost of my power, to procure such in
formation as would enable me to form a
correct judgment in the premises.
And have no hesitation in declaring
il 10 be my settled and deliberate conylc-
ton, that the Ohio volunteers have been
basely slundcrcd, ard that, in truth, not Il
single regiment from Ohio is Justly
with cowardice, or with uny
other misconduct in that battle.
That the disasters of Sunday, April
9th, were the result Of a surprise, which
is justly ehargcable upon the command
ing officers, and not upon the men on
whom the responsibility is now sought to
be thrown. Whenever the occasion shall
demand, justify, or excuse a statement Of
the facts and Circumstances upon which
this opinion is based, and the names Of
the Ctlicers whose criminal negligenc,
has occasioned the disasters of that day,
] shall be prepared to give thcm.
In my judgment the honor Of the State,
and justice to our brave volunteers, de-
mands that a thorough examination
