at the head OF his troops, cut his way through
the Febels, and regained the army.
The fight had now became desperate. Gen.
Grant assuming command, the encmy were
driven back, and the Federal forces occupied at
night nearly the same position they did In the
morning. The fight lasted fifteen hours.
During the night Major. General Lew. Wal
lace came up from Crump's Landing, with nine
teen thousand troops, and in the morning the
battle was renewed with great fury. Neither

Soon after noon Gen. Buell. had crossed the
Tennessee river and attacked the enemy on the
flank, with forty thousand men. The rebels
were soon routed. Buell. pursued, them with

.WAsHHeTos, April 9.-The synopsis of news.
paper reports OF the Tennessee Battle was re-
ceiVed both In the Senate and House. 1t was
listened to with silence. In the latter branch
there wss come slight applause, which suddenly
ceased. The latest dispatch from Com. Footo
was also read, and this was enthusiastically
received in the House.
The Secretary Of war has submitted 10 Con
gress Communication on the western coast de-
fense, enclosing an elaborate report from Edwin
8. Johnson, OF Conn.,, we'll known as q practical
civil engineer, and connected with the Joint
commission of 1917 and 1919, for running and
marking the north and eastern boundary line.
Mr.. Johnson recommends the passage Of Senator
Morrill's bill, and the adoption OF the policy of
placing In the hands OF the President the
necessary power TO accept loans of money from
the several states for the public defense as there-
in proposed. Among the modes of defense
contemplated is the use of railways and float
ing ball-proof batteries, in addition to the Or
dnaTy system Of fortifcaLions. His report is
the result Of careful examination Of all the
matters In question, including a long list Of
documents, based upon a thorough acquaintance
with the physical geography and Typographical
features Of the country.
Jas. s. Pike, Minister to the Meth erlands, in
transmitting to the State Department a copy Of
the tariff and revenue system Of that county,
concludes his dispatch as follows;
at. will be observed that there is no direct
tax on personal property, or on income, as such
taxes are believed to stand in the way Of in
dusIrial and commercial development, ard to
operate to expel capital.
"The decisive successes of the Federal gov
ernment in Tennessee have produced their natu-
raj result on this eide of the water. When
Charleston and Savannah shall have fallen, and
'ur gunboats traverse the Mississippi, all inter-
sit In the affairs Of the Cortederates will cease
n Europe"
About two weeks ago, Com. Foote, In tele-
graphing the Navy Department, said Gen.
Pope intended TO make transverse movement,
: Hhic6 would astonish sacesh on Island No. 10.
rne fulfllment of this prediction is already
Known to the country.

ession to-day. It confirmed several military
appointments Of low grade, and Samuel f. |

FLAGSHIP BENTON,
ISLAND No. 10, April 6.}
Hon. GIDEON WELLEs, Secretary of Navy,
have to inform the Department. that since
sent telegram last night announcing the sur.
render to me of Island No. 10, possession has
been taken both of the leland and the works
upon the Tennessee shore, by the gunboats and
the troops under command of Gen. Buford.-
Seventeen officers and three hundred and sixty
eight privates, besides one hundred of their
sick, and one hundred men employed on board
their transports, @e In our hands, urcondltion.
al prisoners Of war.
have caused hasty examination to be made
Of the forts, batteries and munitions of war
captured. There are eleven earthWorks, With
seventy heavy cannon, ranging in calibre from
80 to l00-pounders, rlaed. The magazines are
well supplied with powder, and there are large
quantities Of shot and shell, and other NUM-
tions Of war, and also great quantities of pro.
visions. Four steamers aAoat have fallen into
our hands, and two others, with the rebel gun
boat Grampus, are sunk, but win be easily rais-
ed. The floating battery, of sixteen heavy
guns, turned adrift by the rebels, is said to be
lying on the Missouri shore, below New Mad
rid.
The enemy upon the main land appear to
have fed with great precipitation after dark
last night, leaving In many cases half prepared
meals In their quarters; and there seems to
have been no concert Of action between the
rebels upon the Island and those occupying the
shore; but the latter fed, leaving the former to
their fate.
These works, erected with the highest en-.
cheering skill, are Of great strength, and with
their natural advantages would have been i'm.
pregnableI If defended by men lighting In a
better cause.
A combined attack Of the naval and land
forces would have taken place this afternoon OF
tomorrow morning, had not the rebels so hasti.
ly abandoned this stronghold. To mature the
plans Of attack, u absolutely required twenty
three days Of preparation. 4 !. K. 4 e '..,i !,
