LETTER FROM THE THIRTY SIXTH REGI-
MENT.-A letter from an officer in the Both
Massachusetts regiment, dated Knoxville,
Dec. ., gives some Interesting incidents of
their late severe campaign. Nov. 26th the
Both boys burned what baggage they could
not take. and retrlated toward Knoxville.
The next day followed the successful battle At.
Loudon, afterwhich the retreat was continued,
the Both defending the rear Of the second corps
Longstreet followed close, and Burnside
making another stand, fifteen miles from
Knoxville, the rebels came out Of the woods
in fine style, in three lines, each half mile
long, but were repulsed twice, the fight last
ing all day Our weary army continued to
retreat at night reaching Knoxville, without
sleep or food for forty hours But DAYS and
nights OF picketing and skirmishing followed.
There was but one grand assault-that ON
Fort Sanders, at the right of the goth repi
ment. The three rebel lines of I.ongstreet
came up CALAMITY, but were broken by wires
stretched in front of the works. The rebels
charged almost into the fort, even putting
their hands on the guns, which blew them to
pieces. The rebel loss i'll this assault was
1900, to killed and 10 wounded on our side.
The scarcity of rations was the greatest hard
ship, leaving the men very weak at the pres.
ent time. There were only quarter rations
issued, and ''short at that" during this mem
orable siege. Longstreet left behind him his
sick, wounded, camp equipage, &c. Many
have come in from their hiding places in the
woods; most of them had no shoes, and not
a man had an overcoat
Since the last report of casualties in the
36th regiment, George Haven of Company &
has been killed by a rebel shell.

keeping them after they are raised When
the terms Of those who first enlisted for one

to remain, by act of congress indefinitely ex-
tending their terms, with penalties of death
for desertion. Those who had enlisted from
Maryland, and ether states outside of the ju-
risdiction of the rebel authorities, were except.
ed from this faithless edict. To meet new ext
gencies, it is now proposed to abrogate this
exception, to which end il bill has been intro
duced into the rebel congress, as follows =
"a BILL to be entitled An Act to continue in ser

They also refuse to receive a flag of truce
from Gen. Butler, or to negotiate with him

standing the proclamation which they now
make pretext for disseminating exchange,
and they have already exchanged over 500
prisoners with Gen. Butler.
