Trihu1tke


mandate Of Gen. Hall2ck, which forbids )
l,e entrance of fugitive slaves within his
ines. The enemy has skedaddled- left
one knows where;
they went nobody knows when! The can1-
raien in the West, since the Fort Donel- -
son victory, has cost the country more !
khan twenty thousand valuable ives-
every life precious to somebody =.
IL Of them dear to the patriot;
ars, this is the result The enemy has fled,
and "Corinth is ours!' We hare no ce~-
tain information probably, as the tele-
graph from Co1inth is under military cen
sorship, we shall have none until our letters
arriye-toucllirg the condition in which
Gen Pope found the ground lately occupied
by The enemy; but we dare assert, even
now, that thc old f4rce Of W aadtu guns has
been played over again: aud thai beyond
these, and a few well-gn:.~-r] beef bones,
half cord Of old bouts, ami about enough
worn cut duds t. set up 4 secondhand
clothes store, or ras-car pct nlanufactorg,
We Elgll have no trophies Millions Of
money and more thzn twenty thousand
lives! Are the spots of the "blood]ess
victory" worth the outlay?
ltwil efound, when the true history is
written, that this evacuation has been
going on, possibly for fortnight 1.-THE
Commander of the Federal army-the il
lus11ious author Of Order No. 3-mean-
while in blank ignorance Of what his foe
was doing. The whistling Of locomotives,
and the rumbling Of trains, the hearing Of
which filed newspaper correspondents and
general officers full Of the ldea that re1n-
forcements for the enemy we're pouring in
by tens Of thousands, were undoubtedly
the evidences that the rank and file
of the rebel army were hurrylng
away to new fortifcations, in another t
Corinth, as fast steam could carry them! |
But the General did not know it, The
only men in, near, OF about the rebel camp,
who are friendly to our cause.-The only
nlcn in all that Southern country who are
willing to fight for us-the only men who
a1c willing to give information Of rebel
doings-in q word, our only reliable friends
The sLA7Es-have been fought away
from our lines with bayonets! Excluded
F-o,n o,7r 1;nes bec,nss IF Order No 4
znd tho color If their skins, The enemy
las escaped, and the history Of warfare
docs not in all the world present another
instance Of stupidity which has worked out
more disastrous results than this same
Order Of which we speak.
