Although We do not believe the ascent OF the
Tennessee river is likely to inaet lasting injury
upon the southern Confsderacy, the lsssou

not, the teachings Of experience will bs lost
upon us.
The sllasion to Peace Engineers' by the
Charleston Courier, in connection with the re-
suits OF the past, leads 70 any thing bot agree
able thoughts. On four occasions, and in three
different States, it has boon demonstrated that
our engineers have been wholly incompetent to
the proper discharge Of the duties assigned
them. What bothers u.s. and what troubles the
people, is these horrible failures of men reputed
to be educated and scientific. The bOtches of
uneducated men, ike Price, OF Missouri, for
instsnce, they could understand aud endure,
but These wretehed defeats of science they are
wholly unable - account for. Further than
this, scientific engineering heretofore having
been invariably unsuccessful, the aforesaid people

Of the command at Fort Donelson, and so far

evidence q courage more Undauuted and deter

opportunity to avengs the blood Of their fallen
comrades, and swear thstif Columbus falls they
will be annihilsted before they viii surrender
While this Spartan heroism prevails, it is sheer
inockery 10 talk Of su5jugaang our people.
They seem 70 grow more courageous under dis

Of the troops engaged in the battle of Fort Don

exception of escaped stTagglers, surrendered
with Gen. Buekner on the day following.

Gen. Buckner's command constituted our right

Second Tennessee regiment.
Fourteenth Mississippi regiment
Third Tennessee regiment.
Eighteenth Tennessee regiment
Thirty-Second Tennessee regiment
Capt Frank Manney's T nnessee battery was
also engaged in the fight, but we are not otadvised
as to its position.
Brig. Gen. B. R. johnson, Of Kentucky
assisted Gen. Pillow in the command of his
division on the day Of the battle
Our total loss viii thus be seen TO be twenty
three regiments Of infantry and two batteries Of
/ light artillery, OF which were nine from Ten
nessee, six from Mississippi, three from Virginia,
two from Kentucky, one from Texas, one from
Alabama, and one from Arkansas.
All accounts concur in establishing the fact
that no battle that ever transpiTed on the Ameri-
can continent was more terrific, more fruitful Of
deeds Of daring and yslOr, or more hardly con
tested than that at Fort DoneIson on Saturday
the 18th Of February. 1862
