We have so many contradictory
facts afloat in regard to the battle OF
Pittsburgh, Tenn, ihat we are com.
PEELED to wait until next week before
VIC publish anything ike a report Of
the battle. ltls, however, pretty well
settled that our loss in killed and
wounaed is not less than 5000, and
our loss as prisoners from 1000 to
1000. The conflict was a desperate
open field fight, in which neither sids
gains a victory. Gen. Mitchell has
possession OF Decatur, aud Col. Sill
at a station east Of Huntsville, Ala,
bama, on the railroad from Memphis
to Charleston, as we learn by tele.
graph. Gen. McClelland has invest

there. The Merimac and Monitor
are keeping close watch Oh each other.

WHAT GEN. ScoTT THINKS OF THE
REBELs.-Before the surrender of Island
No. 10, Gen. Scott expressed the opinion
that the rebels were so disorganized and
demoralized that they would offer little
further armed resistance 10 the authority
of the Government, and only make such
stands and take to such shifts as their
desperate leaders could intimidate or
cajole them into. This opinion, from
one who appreciated in tie very begin
ming the magnitude of The task of the
Government in putting down the rebel
lion, and saw that it was not to be ac-
complished by direct march into a
hostile country, is, we need hardly say,
OF great Importance, and will add much
to the feeling of confidence which is

the publication Of an unconditional
Union journal in Nashville, and SO far
as Il has been possible for us to have ac-

! has been a wonderful triumph, and has
won the hearty approval of the people.
But the mails are at present confined to
narrow limit, and consequently our
patronage cannot grow rapidly south of
the city Of Nashville. We therefore
ask all who feel desire TO have loyal
newspaper published in this city-Ono
which win bring 10 light hundreds of
crimes and outrages committed by the
rebels during their ascendancy over us,
and which the guilty authors believed
would never be brought to light-to

to the Union cause in this State TO have

DEAR USroN I saw an article in your
paper Of yesterday, complaining IRf the
suffering Of our soldiers in the hospital
and barracks at Murfreesboro'. visit
ed them Immediately, and find that all
has been done for the sick there that
could be done. There was time when
the Hospital was filed TO overnOying ;
and there was no doubt suffering for
few days, such as we would be glad to
avoid, and which is now remedied
Tbs Barracks are in very good condi-
ton; the rooms clean, the men under
good discipline, and had enough Of good
food.
AS the result Of my visit, | can say
that believe that DR. YIN N Eames,
surgeon in charge of Hospital and Bar
racks, and DIR. R. N. Millikin, who gives
all his time to the Barracks are both de-
serving Of praise for their successful Ia
boris. We sympathize with the sick
soldier, away from home and home COM
forts, and fully realize that they often
do and must suffer privations unused TO
them at their homes. we are sending
them the donations prepared for them
by the friends they have left behind
them, which we hope will add to their
comfort. "A. N. READ,
