ries of the war. But suppose we must be-
iieve as we are told, that the failure is in con-
sequence Of the unavoidable circumstances at
tending war. I for one, am sorry to learn
that either wiiful neglect Of duty, or the fear
that the worthy should have justice due them,
should be considered among the unavoidable
circumstances connected with war
II Is surprising what men viii endure, and
yet live. Quite number Of men under my
care were shot through the lungs with the
large minnie ball, the breath escaping through
the wound at every Inspiration, who are now
able to walk all about the village, while others,
with seemingly slight wounds, die in spite of
all that can be done for them.
1t would be improper to close without Civ
ing the Sanitary Commission from Ohio, In
diana, Wisconsin, and Illinois their just dues
Had il not been for said Commissions, the suf-
iering here would have been more than double
what it really was. The fourth day after the
battle, stores were received here from Cncin-
natl, which answered the purpose until the
military authorities could be convinced that
there had been more than reconnaissance in
force, near Perryville.

The latest advices from Europe af
ford conclusive proof that the inexpli-
cable delays and do-nothing policy
that has for more than a year past
characterized the management of the
Army of the Potomac policy that
blasted the reasonable hopes and en-
tirely exhausted the patience Of the
nation, and which finally compelled
the President to resort to a change of
commanders produced its legiti
mate fruits abroad. The total failure
to make any perceptible headway a
gainst the heart Of the rebellion has
led TO the almost universal belief that
We do not possess the power to subdue
the rebels, that separation Of the sec
tionS and the establishment Of two
governments is a foregone conclusion,
and that affairs are rapidly approach
ing if they have not already rsac he'd
point which will justify the interfe
renee of foreign powers for the pur-
pose Of bringing the struggle to an
end. France has actually proposed
mediation to England and Russia, and
though those governments did not ac-
ccde to the proposition, the response
Of England at least shows that she on
ly forbears at present because she i'm
agines brief delay will insure more
auspicious period for interference
No foreign Government claims the
right to interfere, except at their per-
il, in a purely domestic quarrel be-
tween a Government and a portion of
her revolted States and hence, if me.
diation is attempted, it will be upon
the assumption that the rebels have
shown their ability to maintain an in
dependent existence, and that our gov
ernment does not possess the power
to assert and enforce obedience to its
claim Of jurisdiction in the rebel
States. To dispel these delusions and
to save us from serious complications
with foreign powers, an active and
energetic prosecution of the war, fol-
lowed by tangib lie results, is indispen-
SADLY necessary. The failures that
have attended our efforts thus far
have seriously injured our cause
abroad, and another year like the one
that has passed, as regards the Army
Of the East, would indefinitely pro-
tract the contest, if not render our
final success exceedingly doubtful.

at your disposal.
The regiment TO which | belong wss not
brought into actual engagement at the battle
OF Chaplin Hill, but was drawn up in line in
front Of the enemy about sund0wn, being de-
Tackled and placed in charge of q farm house
and ordered by DIR. PierSon, Medical Director
of the first Division, (Shoef's,) to hold it at
all huzards, and 10 rid ii Of furniture in order
to accommodate many of the wounded of our
Division as possible. Beto This task was
fully accomplished, the wounded werG beiBg
sent in. As our Division was not icrceiy en-
gagged, but few were sent back. We therefore
admitted all who were sent in without regard
to Division. About two O'Clock at night |
finished drlssing the wounds Of these already
there, and being almost worn out from fatigue,
laid down in the door yard, under tree, and
slept sweetly from that until morning. | soon

easy prey, since which time have not had the
pleasure of seeing them. remained at the

were brought TO Perryville, place of four
churches, aud about six hundred Inhabitants.
At the latter place, was pleased to meet my
friend DR.. T. B. Williams, and Col. Reid of
the l2lst regiment.
The battle field was one chosen by the enc
my, and it WAS one which gave them deci-
ded advantage, by way of planting batteries
to prevent the approach OF our troops and of
concealing their men. In my opinion, our
loss in killed and wounded has, to say the least
of it, not been over rated by any account l
have as yet noticed Somebody must have
terrible weight of responsibility resting upon
their shoulders. Whether they are ever made
to realize it or not, am unable to say. But
in my opinion, had our troops been permitted
to engage the enemy, We could, and would
have achieved enc of the most glorious victo-

FHB PRESIDENT FRX-HE ADVICE ~ LgfAL KEN
TrCKAN.

On Friday, President Lincoln, in the
course of an interview with unconditional
Union Kentuckians, discussed at length
the question of Emancipation. He said
he would rather die than take back word
of the Proclamation of Freedom: and he
dwelt upon the advantages to the border
States of his scheme for the gradual abol-
ishment of slavery, which he urged them
to bring fairly before the people. They
assured him that it should be done.
Mr.. Lincoln also expressed his deter
mination to enforce vigorous measures to
rid the State of rebel sympathizers, and
for that purpose new Provost Marshal
General, who has his heart in the work,
will be appointed.
Secretary Chase's report will undoubt-
edly contain an urgent recommendation
supported by elaborate argument 10 Con
gress to take measures for the substltu-
ton of Government Currency for bank
currency, by taxing the latter, and making
provisions for the circulation through the
banks of the former.

Kershaw, Col Bland and Capt. King OF

tions unless the same was accepted by
them. Gen. Patrick declined to receive
these officers. subsequently, however,
Gen. Burnside assented to their reception,
and the parties returned. The civil au-
thsrities asked for an extension Of the

men and children, alleging that the trains
had been frightened of by our artillery !;
