War News.

GS~ On the outside of today's paper
we give graphic account of the opera
tons at Murfreesboro up to Thursday,
the 1st inst. That battle ended to our
advantage, the enemy being repulsed
with great slaughter. On Friday the
rebels again attacked, and were again
badly beaten. On Saturday, all was
quiet until night, when The Sd Ohio and
63lh Indiana charged upon and captured
a rebel breastwork, capturing SO prison
ers, and killing many rebels, with slight
loss. On Saturday night the rebels
evacuated Murfreesboro, and it was occu.
pied by our forces on Sunday. Our
victory is said to be complete, and the
decentralization Of the rebels, in conse-
quence of their hasty fight, considerable.
The rebels acknowledge defeat, and
report their loss very heavy. They left
their dead unburied. and our forces have
found them in great numbers. General

have sent congratulatory dispatches 10

in the warmest terms.
One OF the most important and brill
liant acts of the war, so designated by
Gen. HALLECK, and mentioned in similar
terms by the rebels themselves, is the
late cavalry raid OF Gen. CARTER, into
Eastern Tennessee. With 1000 men,
Gen. CARTER penetrated 100 miles with
in the enemy's line, destroyed two bridg-
es and ten miles of road, on the East
Tennessee Road, thus cutting complete
ly that most important communication
between Richmond and the Southwest.
The bridges were large structures, and
will take weeks to repair, and Ibis, at
time when, the Richmond papers say,
the road is taxed to its utmost capacity

Guilty of getting it might be obviated,
and there would be comparatively ready
communication. This task of guarding
the r. r.. may seem TO some rather an
VICTORIOUS one, but it is evident some one
must do it, and perhaps it is well that
we, after having become noted as the
travelling regiment, should for time
perform it. A good soldier is one that
is obedient and vigilant, and the laurels
of brilliant victories will as justly clus-
ter around the 9Th as if it were amid
the incessant roll of musketry, or the
deafening roar of artillery. The great
American heart, throbbing with liberty,
throws its rebounding echoes from the
Atlantic shore, high up over the free
mountain tops TO the golden shores o
the limitless Pacific. 1t leaves to each
humble lover of his country, the Joyous
hope of deliverance from tyranny, and
sings a resurrection song over the love
ly patriot grave.

just learned was S. M. Langworthy, who
had resigned as Quartermaster of our
regiment, and was on his way home
lie had everything taken, his horse,
sword, pistols, blankets, overcoat, &c.
All the cotton in town was burned, and
ali the Suter stores destroyed. In this
the rebels were assisted by some of the
citizens Of this place. That they will be
punished severely feel satisfied.
LArER--Since writing the foregoing,
one of the prisoners, taken from our
hospital, Phineas Smith, OF Company b.,
has been here. He says that the rebels
run them off some % miles, and paroled
them, and they ale now back at our
camp on the Tallahatchie, all safe. He
says that there were % rebels that made
the raid on the hospital, that they said
they were supported by large band
lying back, and that men were constant
y leaving, and others coming into their
band along the road. This satisfies me
that these same citizens, that we are
protecting every day, are the ones that
act as guides to the rebels in their expe.
ditlons against us. The more see Of
the course taken in this war, the more

CAMP NEAR TALLAHATcHrE. Mss. J

FRIEND RIcn The report of the Col.
commanding the 9Th Iowa, to Col. Du-
bois, as TO the position of our regiment,
reads about as follows
Companies A. and F. are stationed
so as to guard the bridges south of the
tank from Waterford. guards the
hospital, D. and II. guard the A bridges
next south, companies A, F. and c.,
guard the commissary stores and the
road near the fort north of the river.
E and X. guard the bridge next south
OF the Fort. G. and B. are on the north
bank Of the Tallahatchie." This dispo-
sition of our forces is likely TO remain
for some time. Though we have no
definite orders as TO the length Of time
that we are 10 stay here, yet we feel sure,
from our surroundings, that the fate of
the 9Th is for the present fixed. Our
communication with America is by r
r. to Grand junction, thence to Colum-
bus, Ky, and by boat to Cairo. We are
also in II. Il. connection with Corinth
and other parts Of the world. The eth
now has $50 men for duty. We sent to
Vicksburg, that have not joined US, 81
men. We left in Memphis lo5 conva-
lescents and sick. We have now sick

who have since come to Cairo, and prob
ably to Memphis, 90. The balance of
The regiment were left sick along the
river coming down, and at Cairo in the
hospital.
We have received no news from home
since We let Cairo, and consequently do
not know the condition of the sick that
we left. They ought to report to us
every 90 days. They may have done this,
but for their own protection they ought TO

The Fire i'll the Rear.

EE Ii was asserted when this war
commenced, by more than one good
Democratic oracle, that if the govern
ment should attempt to coerce the South,
the Union soldiers would find fire in
the rear that would give them sufficient
to attend to at home. This fire has Ger
tainly been opened, the result of the late
elections having infused enough courage
into the Democratic sympathisers with
treason TO attempt the fusilade. SEY-
MoUR and the WOODS, Of New York, have
opened it, the democratic Legislature of
Illinois has fired volley, and shots are
daily discharged by such journals as the
New York World and Express, the Chi
cago Times, the Dubuque Herald, etc.
Small squibs are fired, too, by all the
little traitors hereabouts, who are con-
stanily turning their popguns of abuse
and denunciation against the govern
ment, and against every man and meas
ure likely TO hurt treason and traitors.
We have no idea that these fellows can
do much harm. The people will allow
them the latitude of speech, but will
crush them into powder as soon as they
commence to carry their treason into
acts. The little success they have achiev-
ed politically has come to them because
of their unblushing pretensions TO loyal.
ty. They are but undeceiving the mass
who believed and followed them, and
they can no more carry that mass with
them in their revolutionary schemes
Than they can turn the sun from lis
course. They are simply making a de-
velopment Of their aims and desires that
will send them TO perdilion hereafter,
while they can but slightly impede the
great cause of the country. When once
it has become fully apparent, as it is now,
chat the Democratic leaders are The tor
les which they have been proclaimed
the honest masses of that party will scorn
them with deteslaton that will have no
parallel.
Let these fellows pursue their course
let them fume and sputter, and threaten
let them chuckle at every misfortune OF
the country, every slaughter and defeat
Of the brave defenders of the govern !.
ment, and Of the Union-let them plot
an secret cabal. The people permit them
because conscious OF strength and power
10 crush them when they presume too
far But woe 10 them if a conflict comes.
They may talk of overturning the gov
ernment and in the language of the Du-
buque Herald, threaten to turn Presi-
dent, Cabinet and Congress into the Po-
tomac, but terrible will be the retribution
that will reach them should they attempt
to carry out such threats Let them fret
away, then, their short hour of political
life. The people conscious of their own
power, will await with patience the hour
Of change, aud when it comes hurl them
from their places, imprint upon them the
we'll earned brand Of traitors, and give
them over to the curse of history.
