Your attention IS directed to the first of March

highly prejudicial to the public welfare, and

disregarded in several instances, doubtless from
inadvertance. 1t is hoped that all loyal news
papers will see the improperly of publishing

MISCELLANY.
The Great Battle of PittSburg.
SUNDAY MORNING.


AT an early hour, the pickets of Prentiss'
division were surprised by an advance of
the rebel lines. They fell back upon their
supports. The division was at breakfast.
Imme lately the long roll was beat, and
rations Abandoned for the muskets and
equipments. At first it was supposed that
the rebels were simply making reconnoi-
sance; but that illusion was dispelled by
the retreat of the pickets and their support
upon the main camp, followed by an inn
mense body of the rebels-the entire right
wing of the rebel army, thirty thousand
strong. They came in echelon, or in the
form of letter V, the point forward, to op-
crate as a wedge and seperate Prentiss'
force from the main body and from the
transports, and if possible to capture the
transports and thus prevent Baell crossing.
If the centre could be penetrated, or either
division detached from the federal force,
Beauregard would find it, with his over
whelming numbers, an easy matter TO cap
ture or annihilate the entire force of the
west side. 1t was, under the circumstances,
the best possible plan of attack, but like
many other scheames in this life, there was
an error in the calculation. Beauregard
underrated the energy, bravery and endur-
ance of the men whom he undertook to an
nihilaie.
Gen. Prentiss had hardly time TO get
his regiments into position when the rebels
appeared at close musket range, with seve-
raj batteries. A fierce conflict began.
Prentiss had no artillery. The rebels
brought into position with great rapidity
five or six batteries, and at once opened a
severe cross fire upon the little band con-
fronted by more than ten times their own
number. They held the ground with great
bravery till a large force had outfanked
them. and nearely one half, including Gen.
Preniiss, were taken prisoners.-The re-
mainder fell back upon Sherman and Hurl-
burt in confusion. 1t was short conflict,
and resulted disastrously TO us. IT gave
the rebels courage. They had begun well.
The first blow of the wedge had driven it
deep into the Federal ranks. They bad
possession of Prentiss' can p, and were en-
abled to discover the position of the entire
force, and TO lay skillful plans for other
blows.
ATTEMPT TO cur OFF M'cLERsAND.
All this had been accomplished so sud-
denly that but little was known in the other
divisions of what was going on. But while
the rebels were sweeping around Preiitiss,
large force dePloyed from the advancing
columns, crossed the road In front of Hurl-
burt's division, worked their way through a
succession of ravines, and pushed straight
on TO cieave McClernand from the other
divisions. So rapid were their movements,
50 well concerted their plans, that the in

The field was won /; but on such field
as that the sun never shdne on this western
continent. 1t is not more than four miles
square, but twenty thousand men were ly-
ing on the trodden slopes, dying, dead,
crushed and torn by the iron hail and lead
en- rain which had hurtled through the air.
At this time of writing it is not possible to
state with any defniteness the numbers en-
ga aged or the number killed and wounded.
But there is reason TO believe that the en-
tire rebel force was over one hundred thou

no, bsve been less than seventy thousand,
while Grants was under fifty thousand.

A LraAL PoIST.-In q case In New Or.
lsans, reported in the Picay,ne Of June II, the
plaintiff sought 10 recover Of the defendants
$4,000, on the following prsdicam0nt OF facts
The plaintiff had loaned that amount to tha
defendants and taken their Rote when the our.
rsucy consisted Of gold and silver and Of bsLl
bills convertible into gold and silver Whsr
the note mstured, the defendants rendered
Confederate currency, and upon the refusal o.
the plaintiff to accept It, complained Of him Il
the rebel provost marshal as an "snemy to tht
SOUTH Under this coercion, the plaintiff &C
cepted the Confederate currency, which hs nov
says was really NO payment.
The court ordered the fendants 10 giv'
security for tucb judgment as may be recover
cd, "before some regularly constituted United
States tribunal, which may hereafter try th,
case.'
This Ia only the beginning Of the litigation
which Is to arise out Of the anomalous condi
uon of affairs at the Sonth.

WHAT KEEPS UP THE RKBgLLIoy.-In bis let
ter OF last October to our Minister to England
Mr.. Seward said that the rebellion was sus-
tained wholly BY the hope OF foreign intsrvsn
iion, and that II that hope was taken away. the
rebellion would end 10 ninety days.
In bis recent letter TO the New York CONNER.
cial Adue'tis r, Thurlow Weed takes diif.rep,
view Of the subject. Hs says:
without the services OF slaves In relieving
their troops from manual and menisl labor. tba
rebellion would collapse 10 month";
1t Is Mr.. Weed who Is right. So long us w.,
leave 10 the rebels the use Of four millions Of
slaves, and especially so long as we take psio.
to protect them 10 the enjoyment of that tt
them) essential property, Just 10 long this re-
bellIon will be kept alive. That is no NOR
true now, than II was when this war began
but good many people see II now, who coul,
not zoe II then.
This whole attempt, which has ben made
to put down the rebellion and save slavery q
the same time, or, as 1t is sometimes expressed
to restore " the Union as it was" was an eyre
gious folly. 1t has cost the country thousau
millions Of dollars and husdreds of thousand
Of lives. 1t has failed, utterly and iguomir
ously.
