A rumseler, who had pediled liquor TO the
soldiers at Brattleboro from his jug and glass,
was found hidden under the barn Of the
" deacon" in that town, a few days since.
He was stirred up with long pole and dtiv-
en- away from the premises, and his imple-
ments of contraband traffic were captured.
We learn also that Col. Thomas was rather
severe on the rumsetlers Of Brattleboro' be-
fore the regiment left that place. Notwith-
standing his repeated remonstrances with
them for furnishing the soldiers with intoxi-
eating drinks, many continued to get the
critter," and as a result found themselves
the occupants Of the guardhouse. Finding
court martials in each case, and required those
soldiers who were arrested for drunkenness,
to reveal from whence they obtained their
supplies. Each one was then fined $50 for
drunkenness, aud the persons who had fur
nished the liquor notified that such fine had
been imposed, and its immediate payment by
them would prevent proceeding against the
seller The fines were thus paid by those
who sold the liquor, instead of by the SOL
diers, rather than fare worse. In several in
stances sentinels were placed to guard the
premises Of the rumselersto prevent soldiers
from visiting them. This is not a very pleas
ant tale for the good name and fame of Brat
boro, but tells well for the efficiency of Col.
Thomas in caring for the good Of his men.

The REBEL STEAMER NAsHvGLLE.-By
our dispatches this Thursday morning it
seems that the pirate steamer Nashville has
succeeded in eluding .he grasp Of the block
aiding feet, and entered the harbor Of Will
mington, North Carolina, with cargo of
bank-Dote and printing paper. The NashvHe
has long time been watched by the U. S.
steamer Tuscarora in the British port Of
Southampton, and the manner in which she
made her escape, aud the apparent collision
Of the British officials with the transaction is
set forth in the following letter written by
the Captain Of the Tuscarora

Dear Sir.-TheiBdtsh Government have just added

Aought fit to say: "The Union must be pre-
served, and hence all indispensable means
must be employed" | said this not hastily,
but deliberately. War has been and contin-
ues to be an indispensable means to this end.
A practical re-acknowledgmen Of the nation
al authority would render the war unnecessary,
and it would at once cease. II, however,
resistance continues the war must also con-
tnue, and il is impossible to foresee all the
incidents which may attend and all the ruin
which may follow il. Such as may seem
indispensable or may obviously promise great
efficiency toward ending the struggle must and
will come The proposition now made is an offer
only, and hope it may be esteemed no odense
to ask whether the pecuniary consideration
rendered would not be of more value to the
States and private persons concerned than
are the institution and property in it in the
present aspect of affairs. While it is true
that the adoption Of the proposed resolution
would be merely initatory, and not within
itself a practical measure, it is recommended
in the hope that it would soon lead to impor
tant results. In full view of my great re-
sp9nsiblity to my God and to my country.
earnestly beg the attention Of Congress and
the people to the subject.

NASHVILLE, TENN. TUESDAY, MAY 6 1862


A letter from Pittsburg Landing, April
IL, tells how the hearts Of the rebel army
Mere "fired" by Beauregard 10 fight for
The hellish cause of treason against the
cause Of the Union. 1t says
"The Southern army at Corinth has
been on half rations for more than a
month. The men have been fed on hard
bread, pork, and rye coifee--a diet very
much calculated to extract from the SOL
dier's life the romance with which
Southern chivalry might be supposed to
invest it. On the first morning of the
late battle, however, an extra ration was
issued, in the shape of a canteen full Of
tangle-foot whisky 70 each man. This
know by actual observation, as well as
by the statements of wounded rebels
and prisoners. On last Saturday / saw
not less than fifty bodies of dead rebels
piled up in one place. by the side of a
ditch, being dug for their burial. Near
ly every one of these had by its side =
canteen with more or less liquor in IT,
On the Sunday in which the first of the
battle was fought, more than one half Of
Beauregard's army was drunk. The OBJ
ject of the extra rations is apparent
On the plea that this is struggle for
human rights, they convert their soldiers
into demons before engaging in it. The
people of the North haye often wondered
how the Southern soldiers could be guilty
Of the acts of barbarism that have dis
graced the American character on every
battlefield from Bull Run TO Pittsburg
Landing But does not the extra ration,
account for them all? 1t does not aston
ish the readers of daily newspapers to
learn of the commission of deeds of afro,
city by the poor wretches brought daily
before the police courts for punishment
and they should not be astonished if the
same cause produced the same effect
elsewhere than in the streets of Cincin-
natl and New York"
First impress soldiers, then make them
drunk, and teach them to cut the throats
of the sick and mangle and mutilate the
dead. Good God can mankind longer
endure such atrocity?
