Gems From the Nashville Union.

Nashville (Tenn.) has now one live dai-
ly paper-the Uhioa-edited by Mr. S. C..
MERCER, Southern loyalist who has been
weighed in the balance and found to be
a heGyy Union man. We clip some gems
from the Union:
Governor Isham Harris should write his
name |. sham.
The rebels might as well lay down their
arms in despair. The great Beauregard
has laid dorm one Of his.
Beauregard, like other rebel Generals,
has proved failure. He might make a
pretty fair siagle-handed fight, but he is not
fit to lead an army.
The Southern rebels boast that they are
natives of the South. SO are the mush-
rooms that sprout around their tables,
and the rats that breed in their cellars.
1t Is said by some rebels who have come
from Bowling Green, that Gen. Price is in
that region. The odor which fills tha.
unhappy town naturally leads them to
this sappoSition.
The editor of the Louisville Journal
says that he has received an insulting and
lill-spelled letter from a woman who signs
her name Eat. 1t is no unusual thing for
a rebel to hide under q petticoat. We
guess Mr.. Prentice's Kat is toHl-eat
4 beautiful but rampant rebel belle
tried to make a mouth the other dav on
meeting a remarkably handsome and styI-
ish young officer, but her admiration was
so great that her mouth wouldn't stay
pouted. She broke her puckering string.
The rebels should not destroy their cot
ton by fire. They should take the advice
of profane Yankee in Chicago, and eat
their ID cotton" 1t might choke
them, but that would make indifference.

Iritish Civil Wars-War Debts.

There are no less than thirty-seven re-
bellions recorded in English history be-
tween the time of William the Conqueror,
A. d. 1909, and the Irish outbreak in
1903. Several others have since occurred.
The British foreign wars have been in
cessant, and their expenses enormous
That of the American Revolution was six
hundred and thirty millions of dollars,
and the contest with the first Napoleon
cost five thousand seven hundred and
ninety-fYe millions.
The sympathy shown to the Confeder-
ates by England may thus in part be nat
urally accounted for, though considerable
inconsistency is nevertheless yet to be ex-
planned in the want of it for the natives
of India and the discontented population
beyond the Irish Channel, who have been
very anxious to possess and govern their
own countries in their own way.

fell, but few have even a stake to tell their
last resting place; some were collected by
their friends in groups, and some rude
monument erected to distinguish the To-
cality. Many of the horses and wagons
in our camps were taken, or destroyed by
the rebels. For eight days have the 18th
Regiment staid upon this battle field,
without tents, blankets, or camp equip
age, nearly every night in a cold rain, eX-
posed to every inconvenience that could
possibly be imagined. Fed on hard crack
ers, roasting bacon on sharp sticks, or
frying it in their tin plates, pounding cot
fee with the butts of their guns, making
it in their tin cups-'sChO ,cOULd not be a

endured all this with the bravery of true
soldiers who had had won laurels on the
battle field, in defence of our 'Glorious
Union" Thousands of others were in the
same situation, our transportation being

provisions for the army, and carrying OF
to different localities the wounded. | ann
happy to say that nearly every State is
here, caring for the wounded,
which are now well cared for, placed in
good comfortable berths dressed up clean
and sent to cities in different States.
You may tell of the horrors of war but
few except an eye witness can appreciate
them In battle you may sympathizel
with the suffering but you cannot render'
the assistance that may seem necessary
on the immediate occasion; for the stern
necessities of war require that but few
leave the ranks while in action-to a sol
lier, suffering and death becomes familiar
objects.

The Forty First in Bat:le-Inci-
dents of the Day.

Mr.. J. w. Hall from Royalton) of Co.
|, 4lst Regiment, who returned last even
ing in the care of his mother and Mr.. W.
Y. Craw, gives two or three interesting
incidents of the Pittsburg Landing battle.
The 4lst arrived on the opposite side Of
the river on Sunday night, and lay on
their arms all night, crossing the river in
the morning to take part in the fight
Col. Mygatt fought bravely at the head
of his regiment all day. In the COM
mencement of the fight his horse became
frightened at shell which exploded in
mediately in front, and was rendered un-
manageable. Col Mygatt then dismount-
ed and fought on foot all day.
Mr.. Hall mentions an instance of rebel
ingratitude that came under his observa-
ton. As the 4lst were advancing on the
enemy one of Co. +, stopped to load his
musket. A wounded rebel that lay on the
ground pulled at his clothes and asked
for water. The soldier gave him drink
out of his canteen, and then passed on
Revived by the water the rebel raised his
musket to his shoulder as he lay, and fir
ed at the man who had ministered to his
wants. The charge passed through the
clothes of the soldier just above the hip,
but did not wound him. Another mem
Der of Co. F, who was coming behind saw
the deed, and inned the rebel to the
ground with his bayonet.
Leland's band did good service in help
ing the wounded. Jack Leland himself
was as busy as bee all day, utterly re-
gardless of the showers of bullets whist
ling around him. He kept poking about
in the bush, picking up wounded men
and placing them on stretchers for the
others to carry away.
The 4lst had a severe combat with a
Mississippi regiment, about nine hundred
strong, composed of full grown, stalwart
men. The Mississippians fired lying down
until routed by the 4lst. They then re-
tired slowly firing as they went, and fol-
lowed by the 4lst until the close of the
battle. Is was in this pursuit through
the wood that young Hall received ball
through the whole length of his thigh,
about half past four o'clock in the after
noon.-CZeUeLand Herald,

From Yorktown.

YORKTOWN, April II.
10 Hon. E. IL lStaatOa, Secretary of War:
During Tuesday and Wednesday the
gunboats amused themselves by shelling
the woods below Gloucester. One of them
approached within two miles of York
town yesterday morning, but the enemy
opened from new battery, concealed in
the woods. The boat, having obtained
the position of their guns, returned to
her position, without receiving any dam
age.
The firing to-day was renewed at long
intervals
The rebels yesterday morning, with one
thousand men, commenced to strengthen
a battery, located abont three miles to the
left of Yorktown, when a battery was
brought to bear, causing them to beat a
hasty retreat.
The rebels opened with their heavy
guns when a second battery was brought
forward. A brisk fire was now kept up
for about four hours, during which time
three of the enemy's guns were dismount-
ed, when both parties ceased for while,
but it was resumed ON our part late in the
evening, and continued until daylight this
morning effectually preventing the rebels
from repairing the damage they had sus-
tained

tween the Third Vermont and the enemy

Our Artillery moved the rebels down bv
acres. Lieut.. B. r. Wagner, Topographic

she'll striking table in front of him. in
which were his papers. His arm was am
putated, but he win probably recover.
About one this morning the enemy, in
force, attempt to cross the dam in front of
our lines with the view Of capturing our
battery. Our reserve force of infantry
opened fire on them, forcing them to beat
retreat, leaving their dead and wound
ed on the field, which they succeeded in
recovering by daylight. Both parties
opened with artillery, which has continued
to the present time. None of our men

short time since, with a great flourish of trum-
pets. it was announced that nearly thousand
officers were to be dismissed from the army on

names about eighty in all, have been publish
ed, and among them are several dead men who
were killed in battle. while number of others
bad already been honorably discharged on ac-
count Of wounds or sickness. This shows the
utter confusion which prevails in the manage
