TIE BATTLE OF SHILOH.
CoRISrH, Miss, Tuesday night, !

April s, 1862.
The grandcst battle Of the Southern Confederacy
has been fought and won 10y Southern troops
Hereafter, Shiloh will be known as the Waterloo Of
the American continent.
The details of the fight are thus far too meogrc.
and the exaggerated rumors incident to occasions OF
this kiEd too conflicting to admit of complete re-
view Of the battle; but am enabled to give you
skeleton account which will convey very good idea
of the anir FIRST Of the character of the country
As general thing it is low and fiat, boggy, heavy,
and covered with a thick underground, with here
and there succession of forests and fields. In the
Immediate vicinity of the battle-ground the surface
is more undulating, and the various ridges afford
natural entertainments, from behind which the enc
my was enabled to pour in most destructive fire,
and make determined stand
TIE ATTACK OF SUNDAY.
As you are already informed by telegraph, the
Contederates on this occasion acted wholly upon
the offensive. Early in the week Beauregard and
Johnston had information of the contemplated adj
vance OF the enemy AZ soon as union OF the forces
under Buell. and his front division, which was CON-
manded in detail by. Grant, Wallace, McClernand,
Prentiss and Smith could be effected. To prevent
this wholesale demonstration it was determined to
press the issue without delay. Orders were pub
shed to our army to prepare three days rations,
and put itself in light marching order; and on Sat.
urday the preparations on our side were complete,
and most of the brigades were IN position within
two and half miles of Shiloh. forgot to mention,
by the way, that this is the name of asmall town,
distant from the river between three and four miles,
and was occupied by the enemy. The point near
est to this on the Tennessee, is Pttsburg Landing
where they held their reserves, stores, guns and
ammunition under cover Of their gunboats. These
were only three in number. | h5Se heard Il stated

Traitors Must vste - save slavery.
The Missouri Constitutional Conven-

The Missouri Constitutional Conven-
venton rejected a bill, requiring an oath
of allegiance to the United States as !
condition Of exercising the right Of suff-
rage. The Convention, majority of
which is evidently more devoted to
slavery than to the Union, were
afraid that if none but loyal men wore
allowed to vote, the emancipation can.
didates would be elected, and the enamel.
patton policy succeed. The only depen-
dence to save slavery in Missouri, is upon
the votes Of the men who have been fight
ing to overthrow the Government and
destroy the Constitution Of the United
States.
But bad us that is the Convention did
q worse aIl more tvrannical act, by vir
'aaly DISTINGUISHING the loyal men of Mis-
souri,, forbidding and prscluding them
from voting upon question OF far more
importance and vital interest than any
that can arise for years to come
