The affairs of Roanoke island, Fort Henry and
Florence, will embolden Congress to enact two
measures which would make any war unpopular
among any people. The government has taken
courage from these successes; and will thrust its
long arms into the pockets of the people for the
money these expeditions have cost. The people
are now exultant and joyful; but there is such
thing as laughing or the wrong side of the
mouth; and the rejoicinss that will take place
through the North will end, before all is over,

and good supply of provisions. One of
our men was killed. Mono wounded.
New YoRK, April 2o.-The steamer
Philadelphia from Fort Pickens has arrived.
Deserters were constantly arriving from
Pensacola. The rebels had not evacuated,

Letter from the 49th Regiment.

CAMP Shiloh, April 10, 1862.
DEAR JouRsAL:-Thihking that letter from
the battlefield will prove an antidote to our
friends at home, promptsrne to write. As ! have
little time, and but little paper viii be very
concise in my letter, reserving the description
for my next. We were marching from Camp
Stanton, which we had left on the 3lst, when
Sunday morning, the 9th, we heard the booming
of cannon in the distance. We were taking
things leisurly when orders came to load our
knapsacks on the wagon, take three days pro-
visions and shove ahead as fast as possible, for
Savannah was s miles off. We reached there
at 10 o'clock at night, the rain pouring down in
torrents. Every building of the place was fill
eed with wounded soldiers.
The next morning we started for the sceue Of
action on board of one of the steamers. Vari-
Gus reports reached us as to the progress Of the
battle, both at Savannah and from the passing
boats, and it was with considerable anxiety we
stepped ON shore and advanced towards the en-
emy. Our Brigade, composed of the 32d and
39tl Ind, 18th and 10th Ohio, (Gen. johnson
being at home on account of sickness advan-
ced in gallant style. We passed the wounded,
dying and dead, sight to unaccustomed eyes,
not very pleasant Three of our Regiments at
first formed the reserve; the 32d went in on its
own responsibility. The General ascertaining
that the enemy was going to make desperate
charge on the centre, ordered us to that point.
The boys marched in as good order as the
ground would permit, rs it was timber. Soon
the shot came pouring in thick and fast and it
4 was then the order commence firing was Civ
en-, and it was continual roar of musketry.-
/ We changed front quite a number of times, the
movements were executed as well as any bat
talon movement that we have made. A con-
/ tinual fire was kept up by us, and it brought
from them shells, which went crashing among
the trees and exploding in our midst Two guns
were brought up to our support, which told
I heavily upon them, and were handled with the
utmost GOODNESS. Itwas but short time until
the battle was over and stiffness reigned, the
enemy routed. We had killed, 36 wounded,
and 3 missing in our regiment. We had none
killed in our company, but wounded; corporal
| Laughlin, private Mercer, in the leg by explos-
posion of a shell; John Stoner, ball in the groin;
| Wilson Flaugher, leg above the knee by buck
shot; Joseph Stoner had his thumb shot off, and
sergeant Laughlin slight wound in the hand
The wounded are getting along well. We have
4 met the I'D, ascertained that their Lieut. Col
, was killed, Major taken prisoner, Capt. Wig
stein and ID others killed and 20 wounded. No
4 idea can yet be formed as to the number killed
but the loss of the enemy must be immense.
