A Noble Letter from tao Secretary

Noble Letter tom nSaa tao Secretary OF
To the Editor of the New York Tribune:
SIR:-I cannot suffer undue merit to
be ascribed to my official action. The
glory of our recent victories belongs to
the gallant officers and soldiers that
fought the battles. No share Of it be-
longs to me.
Much has recently been said of mill
tary combinations and organizing vic
tory. I hear such phrases with appre.
hension. They commenced in infdel
France with the Italian campaign, and
resulted in Waterloo Who can organ
ize victory? Who can combine the ele-
ments of success ON the battle 6eld?--
We owe our recent victories to the
Spirit of the Lord, that moved our SOL
diers to rash into battle, and filled the
hearts of our enemies with terror and
dismay. Transportation that conquered
in battle was in the hearts of our SOL
diers and from On high; and wherever
there is the same inspiration there will
be the same results. Patriotic spirit,
with resolute courage in officers and
men, is military combination that
never failed
We may we'll rejoice at the recent
victories, for they teach US that battles
are to be won now, and by us, in the
same and only manner that they -were
ever won by any people, or in any age,
since the days of Joshua-hy boldly
pursuing and striking the foe. What,
under the blessing of Providence, con
ceive to be the true organization and
military combination to end this war,
was declared in few words by Gen.
Grants message to Gen. Buckner: II
propose to move Immediately on your
acorks." Yours truly,
EDWIN NJ. STANTON.

D@ We again take the liberty to sug
gest to our business men-merchants
mechanics, traders, and all others-the
propriety of advertising their business
in, the Telegraph. This is our adver-
tiseihent. Of course we desire your
patronage, gentlemen, if it can be made
mutually profitable, We think all ex
perience proves that it is profitable for
almost any man, in any business, to ad
vertise that business Hence the nam
Fmoth city sheets filled with advertise
ments, at enormous prices. Business
men have found by long experience that
it does pay. And we feel quite sure it
would pay, in this county, for every
man who does business of only five
hundred dollars year, to advertise, chat
business. Our best business men ap-
preciate that fact, as will be seen by
reference to our columns. We thank
them for their patronage, but believe the
benefit is reciprocal. Let all interested
think about it. tttt t.i

some of her men in Congress. While
her patriotic volunteers were pouring

their destruction. He, however, was

Naiho, ICuI uaI 20.
On Saturday orders were issued for
the gun boats and troops to be in readi-
ness at clock on Sunday morning for
instant departure. Promptly at the
hour the transports Illinois, Continen-
tai and Chancellor we're steamed up and
in readiness
The 9th Illinois, Col Buford, and
the 9th Wisconsin, Col Murphy, quickly
departed. About o'clock the flag ship
Cincinnati signalied the Fleet and
steamed down the river foil owed by the
Carondolet, Conestoga and St. Louis,
two Mortar boats and the transports.
Shortly before reaching Columb the
line of battle was formed When within
a mile and a half Of Columbus the trans.
ports were put in readiness for disem
harkation, when a shot was fred from
the enemy works, after which flag of
truce put out and the rebel officers went
aboard the flag ship.
The conference lasted an hour and a
half but the results attained are not yet
known. 1t is sufficient that at the ex
piration Of the time the flag ship sig
nailed the feet to return. Tie trans
ports arrived at Cairo apout eight
O'Clock The gun boats have not yet
arrived
1t is currently reported and believed
that Gen. Buell. occupied Nashville to-
day Generals Cullum and Paine ac-
companied the expedition. The former
with Commodore Foote
Gov, Kirkwood, of Iowa, arrived to-
day Commodore Foote arrived from
the cumberland yesterday, on the Con-
estoga, and left to-day down the river
on the Conestoga.
The 42d regiment, or the 1st regiment
of Douglas brigade, has arrived from
Smithton, Mo, and are quartered in
Fort Holt. The regiment numbers
about six hundred.
The Conestoga, day or two ago,
picked up some torpedoes floating
They were about three feet long, with a
rod ending in a trident attached to the
side. Striking the trident would force
it upon cap, causing an explosion.
The report that Captain r. r, Hop
kins, Co. H, 18th Illinois, proved him
self d coward. at DonelSon, Is entirely
false He was sick, as is shown by Il
certificate from the surgeon of his di
vision. The story was spread about by
member of his company.
On Saturday night, 100 cavalry left
Paducah to attempt the capture of the
notorious Clay King and his band Of
ruffans, who are committing depreda j.
tions upon Union men in that vicinity.
There were 10000 troops at Paducah
this morning. -
