In TIE REAR OF V1cksBuna, [ j,
May -, 1868.
At m early hour this morning a simulta-
neons cannonadc from our artillery along the
entire line was opened upon the Court House
and buildings in The vicinity, which lasted
without intermission for an hour. During
that time fully 5000 shots were fired, solid
shot and shell. The damage occasioned by
this persistent attack must hare been i'm
menee. Since that time all has been quiet,
with the exception Of shot directed at inter-
yals against the Notifications
The enemy rarely reply with his heavy guns,
although, his sharpshooters are always busy
whenever Yankee soldier ventures to raise
his head above our rife pits. Your cores
pondent was riding along the lines today,
and imprudently advanced within $50 yards Of
the rebel works, opposite our centre. He
salted with a shower Of rebel bullets, which
caused him incontinently to seek the protec-
lion Of fi1eudly rayine close ut hand.
This evening there was another period OF
heavy cannonading lasting for nearly an
hour As in the morning it was followed by
extensive conilagrations in Vicksburg.
4 rumor has reached camp within ten min
utes that Gen. Osterhaus has met and whipped
the enemy at Big Black Bridge, taking 800
prisoners and two pieces of artillery. I do
not youch for the correctness Of the rumor,
but give It as have received it.

OUR SPRINGFIELD LETTER.

SrR1sGr1KLD, june 5, 1853,
TEE FEELING OF THE LEGISLATURE.
The Legislature is working along slowly In
developing plan for the disbursement Of the
s1o0, 900 appropriation for the relief Of the
soldiers. Finally, to-day, in the Senate, Mr.
Green proposed bill appointing five Commis-
eioners, (one Of whom Is the Governor) and
three agents, to disburse the money This,
at least, has the merit Of not directly insulting
the Governor, although Of the eight Commis-
Eioners and agents, he is the only Republican.
Mr. Sparks opposed the appointment Of any
agents, desiring to leave this to the Commls-
sioners themselves. The agents are to be paid
three dollars per day.
The appropriation bills came up and were
both referred to the Committe on Finance,
with directions to consolidate the two In one.
These bills, so tar as the Executive and Adju-
tant Generals Departments are concerned,
cut down the amounts Of the last two years
nearly one half, on many items. The Adju-
tant Generals office Ind Executive Depart
msnt have heretotore been paid ont Of tie
ded in ihe relief Of soldiers and for other nee
eseary expenses. It now costs S10, 600 per an-
nun to run the A5jutaDt Genernrs Office.
The bill appzopriates 5000 per annum.
do not think there Is any intention, at
present, among the Democracy, to favor any
political measures. They appear to have had
enough Of that during the first part Of the
seeslon. There is much apathy among them
MS regards national politics, and, indeed, af-
fairs generally, SO much SO that certain de-
gree Of bl .terness pervades the House as re-
gards legislation Of all kinds. In short, busi-
ness af1airs to-day, had to be in that condition
that motion to adjourn would be most &C.
ceptable to the majority.
Some Democrats talk about an adjourn
nent on the 10th, while some putt off to the
14ih. For my part should not be surprised
to see the session brought suddenly to close
at any moment.
"n1II 0REEy'' AHEAD.
Senator Green to-day achievcda great tri-
nmph, in the passage Of the bill appropriating
SlO0 60 for the relief Of the sick and wound
cd soldiers. He was opposed in this By one
or two leading Democrats, but he SO MI
neuyered TINT he carried bis point, every Sen,
ator but one voting for it. During the first
part OF the session had fears that Senator
Green would not have been able to hold his
position, as leader Of the Democracy, but
have been mistaken, and hasten to acknoWl-
edge It. Talent will lead in the long run.
