Another Victory.

The Expedition up the Tennessee River has
l,sep completely successful. Elsewhere will be
found the history of the bombardment and cap
ture of Fort Henry by our gunboats, and the
pursuit Of the enemy by land and water. The
action was gallant affair. 1t occurred on
Thursday of last week, commencing few min
utes before II o'clock. Our boatmen did not
attempt to do the business at "long taw," but
steamed up within three hundred yards of the
rebel battery of seventeen guns, some Of which
were rifed, and one of which was a ten-inch
eolumbiad. The rebels stood well to their guns,
as may be judged from the fact that one of our
boats was struck thirty-one times. The Essex
gunboat was disabled by shot through her
boilers, and many of her crew were killed by
the scalding steam. Aside from this grave dis
aster, our loss was very small. The rebel ar
tillerymen working their guns, surrendered
The rebel land force, placed In supporting dis
tance, ran away with Fishing Creek pre-ipita-
ton, leaving everything they could not eonve-
niently carry. They did not give our army on
the shore chance. The best part of this VIC
tory is the way in which it is being improved
Commodore Fo o1E, who gloriously illustrates
his reputation as a most gallant officer, sent a
part of his boats in pursuit of the boats of the
rebels, up the river, and Gen. GRANT was in hot
pursuit of the fugitiyes. This is comfortable to
read Of
Holmes County Republican. [volume] (Millersburg, Holmes County, Ohio) 1856-1865, 1862-02-13

eEThe New York Tribune few days ago
put afiout story that caused some excitement
and not little uneasiness in the public mind.
It was that Gen. MCCLELLAN was offended be-
cause Secretary Stanton intended to take con-
troll Of the war, which usage and law give him
the right to do. 1t was also reported that a
Lieut.. General YVES to be appointed. in order to
put some one over the head of MCCLELLAN. All
these stories of the probable suppression of
the Commanding General are from the same
source-the Washington correspondence of the
New York Tribune are not entitled to any
credit. There is no substantial reason to be-
lieve that Gen. MCCLELLAN has thought of re-
signing. or has any cause for dissatisfaction, or
that he is less strong in the confidence Of the
Cabinet, than when promoted to the position
he now holds. The proposition to appoint a
Lieutenant General is foolishRess, and it is not
entertained save by few factionists. There
is no call for Lieutenant General, and no man,
by service, or capacity in any way madenoknw,
is entitled to the place if it were desirable that
it should be filled.

am desired to say to the public that l was
called in connection with DR.. MCKEAN, to make
a post-mortem examination of the body of ID.
X. PERKEY, and requested TO make statement
to the relatives and friends of the deceased, the
result of our investigation. With no ether OBJ
ject in view but that of determining whether
or not there might have been some perverted
condition of his corporeal organism, that would,
by preying upon his intellectual propensities,
account in some degree for that strange fatuliy
of mind that induced him to self-destruction;
an act SO fearful in ITSELF SO deeply TO be Ia
mented, so earnestly to be reprobatcd and for
bidden. But i have been taught TO believe it
is almost invariably the result, like all other
forbidden and criminal acts, of some undue
emotion, or some ungoverned passion, which
may be brought about by diseased structure
To determine this, was the design of our exam
ination. The result will give briefly, mas
much as it would be superfuous to enter into
detail. In our research we found that Mr.. PER-
KEY had been laboring under very extensive
disease of the liver-what we designate tech
nically, (irrhosis, one of the most common of
the fatal diseases of the liver in this climate
This revelation only verified what had reveal
ed to him some two years ago, at which time
he called at my office then valetudinarian.-
Indeed more extensive Cirrhosis of the liver
common complication. abdominal dropsy, we
seldom find in post-mortem examination. 1t
would be useless for me to enumeratc the Ana
tcmical characters presented us by this disease.
1t is equally so to give the long list of the ordi
nary accompaniments, produced by dcranged
functions of the liver. May it then suffice to
say that four fifths of the whole pisc,ls, in the
case of Mr.. PERkEY, was in diseased state
But would Cirrhosis of the liver produce men
tai disorder of such magnitude as to induce
motives of self-murder? is the question most
likely to be asked. l answer most emphatical-
ly in the affirmative. Should authority be So
licited, 1 would point to the whole medical
world all of which agree that not only Cirrho-
SIS of the liver, but the vast majority of all the
diseases affecting that organ, produce more or
less mental de rangement, such as depression
of spirits or melancholy, one of the most COM
mon features of the disease; illusions of various
kinds, and most ridiculous hallucinations are
often entertained by the patient. And nhally,
what is the most lamentable of all, is the too
frequent tendency evinced TO suicide and mur-
der.
In consideration of this brief sketch, it be-
hooves us to indulge sbuddering sympathy
for those unfortunate beings, who chance TO
fall victims to so desperate an act. which. if
due allowance be made, l think will seldom
fail to find reason for mitigation of deed in
itself most dreadful.

Important Developments.

1t is reported here that General Lander
has asked to be relieved of his commend
as General of this division, and that as
soon as relieved, he will resign his COM
mission.
1t should be understood that the late
re.rograde policy in this division was in
obedience to express orders from General
Mcclellan. 1t is very different form what
Gen. Lander's antecedents would have led
us to expect, and it is known that he dis
liked being thus compelled to adopt it.
1t is understood that Lander, at three diff
ferent times, asked permission to advance
on the enemy, and that he had already
built flatboats at Cumberland before being
reinforced, that he might march east and
hold the Virginia shore and enable Will
liams' Brigade, now at Hancock, to cross
the Potomac and join him in an attack on
Jaekson's rear.
1t is even reported that Lander has been
very severely reprimanded by Mcclellan
for pressing the plan to attack Jackson's
force. 1t is known from competent sour
ces that Lander feels himself aggrieved
that the military authorities in Washing
ton, supervising the telegraphs, should au-
thorize the transmission of the statement
that Lander had retreated on his own re-
sponsibility, and when Mcclellan was on
the point of sending him reinforcements.
The truth is, Mcclellan never informed
Lander he was to be reinforced, aud yet
had to telegraph him positive orders, twice,
to fall back on the railway, before Lander
obeyed. Lander is still on the Virginia
side of the Potomac, with no intention of
crossing. About half Of Jackson's force
is reported still at Romney. The rest is
near Winchester.

regiments. The two that died Of their wounds
were of the 42d. One of them had his thigh
so mangled that had to amputate it at the up
per third; he is doing well and from all present
Appearances will recover. The remainder of
the wounded are doing well. At the close of
the battle there was an extreme anxiety among
the men to know who were the unfortunate vic
tins of the engagement. We were all agreea-
bly, disappointed when We leafned that our
casualty was no greater. The number killed
on the rebel side has not been ascertained to
certainty. as they carried off their dead and
wounded during the time of battle; but from
reliable sources, we learn that there were from
90 to 100 killed. The next morning our men
found fifteen of their dead that were on the out
skirts. At the point where the firing was main
ly directed the ground was covered with blood,
showing that it had been effectual. They re-
ported that they had killed between 500 and
600 of the: Yankees, and their loss in killed and
wounded and missing was $50.
| Itook possession of an old log house that had
neither windows nor doors to receive the wound
ed in; it was all that could be obtained The
poor fellows were much exhausted from the
shock of their wounds, besides being fatigued,
hauing marched the day be'ore and laying out
all night in the rain without shelter, and uoth-
ing to eat but few hard crackers, together
with the ,labors of the day, rendered them

used all the means within our power to make
them comfortable until morning, when they
were taken to Prestonburg, at which place we
renamed with them until the 18th inst, when
we returned to this place. So far am well
satisfied with my position, although it is labo-
rious and depriyes me of many of the comforts
of life, besides its responsibilities. should
like very much to return TO little Holmes for a
short period and enjoy the social society of my
old friends, but duty demands me 10 remain
for the present in the service OF my country
hope the time is not far distant when our na-
tonal difficulties well be settled and we return
to our families and friends with greater appre-
citation of the value of peace, home and the So
ciety of our friends than We have ever had
heretofore. Yours, Respectfully,
