This regiment is stationed at present on James

company, Geo. W. Barber and Willis Wilson, have
died, and about twenty Of thep are sick.
We learn from this friend that there is no donbt
that tScTrcop'e Of South Carolina generally refuse
to take our State Treasury notes. If they do not
want our Treasury notes. especially when offered
to them by our soldiers, then we say we do not
want them to have our troops. South Carolina,
next to Massachusetts, is responsible for this bloody
and awful war. This Being the fact, it becomes
her people to speak kindly, instead of bitterly of
those States that heeping the enemy from their
doors, and to show enough confidence in the cur
rency of the other Confederate States to receye it.
when offered for the necessaries Of life by the sol
diers. We deprecate as much as any one the i'll
feeling which exists between this State and South
Carolina, but our, people are not responsible for
this feeling AS soon as Lincoln drew the sword
on that State, our people, though they dsapproved
of her hasty action, flew to her relief and thou
sands of them on her soil, prepared to die
in her defence and the return we get for this is
refusal Of our currency. and the btterest dsnu ncia

THE YANKEES IN BERTHE. "A friend writing from
Coerain, BERTHE, under date March 9th, says: Yes
terday a Yankee gunbeat ran in near the land and
fired several times; three Of the shot or shell fell
in and about the village. Besides giving much un-
easiness to the citizens they destroyed some 600

protection at any time. We are helpless, and at

The struggle In Ohio.

The Vallandigham committee, who went
from Ohio to Washington to ''deaP with the
president, received an answer which troubled
them seriously, and to which they were not
prepared to give an immediate reply. The
president signifed to them that he would can
eel the sentence if they would ''agree in writ
ing to support and obey all the laws, and also
pledge Vallandigham to do the same" They
demurred, hesitated, and finally said they
could say nothing in response to this until
they had consulted their friends" They,
having turned away their eyes from the real
issue, supposed everybody else had forgotten
it. 1t was embarrassing to meet it again at
such atime. Vallandigham has ferociously de-
nounced all efforts of the government to crush
the rebellion. and publicly proclaimed crus-
ade against the enforcement Of certain acts Of
congress necessary to sustain the war. His
followers have organized resistance to the
government and engaged in shooting enroll
ment officers. The president asks the copper
head committee if they will pledge themselves
and Vallandigham to behave loyalty and sus-
tain the laws hereafter; and they withhold IL
reply.
The Vallandigham issue is plain one, and
the copperheads need not hope to escape it.
There are many encouraging indications that
the people of Ohio will hold them to it far
more stringently than they expected. Many
democrats in that state have openly de-
clared that they will not vote for Val
landgham; and many others will oppose
him who have not made public their
intentions. Among the prominent and infu-
entail democrats who oppose the attempt to
make yalcopperhead governor of Ohio,
are Judge Jewett and judge Payne Of that
state. Nearly all the German papers in Ohio,
that have heretofore supported the democratic
party, oppose and denounce Vallandigham !;
and some other democratic papers do the
same thing. The Cleveland Plaindealer gives
him the cold shoulder In Cleveland the
names of prominent democrats were fraudu-
lently affixed to call for Vallandigham rat
ifcation meeting. Oneof them took notice OF
this proceeding as follows:
81 am a democrat, Union democrat, and
SO is every man that is a friend to his country.
There are now but two classes in the North,
one class for his country, the other against his
cOuntry-one a friend, the other a traitor.
And any man that votes tor Clement L Val
landigham belongs to the latter class"
These signs indicate very plainly that the
copperheads who so noisily nominated Vallan-
digham have not power to elect him.

MEMpuIs. lime 2S.-Official adyices from
Grants army TO noon on the 10Th say every
thing was working tavorably, and the siege
was being pushed vigorously. Three hundred
of the Ain Iowa cavalry on a scout near
Bridgeport, Mississippi, had fight with 500
rebel cavalry. Our forces lost about 80 kill
ed. wounded and missing, and one howtzer.
Gen. Sherman advanced on the 22d to meet
Johnston. but could not find him or any con-
siderable number OF his forces.
1t is asccrtained with certainty that john
ston cannot muster $4,000 men all told At
last accounts most of these troops were be-
tween Canton and Bridgeport. The rebels
are making desperate efforts to interrupt the
navigation Of the Mississippi below Memphis.
They have a battery of six guns at Catfish
Point, opposite Greenvlle. Marmaduke is
using all his efforts to blockade the river.
These matters are receiving the attention of
the proper military authorities.
Scouts from central Mississippi and Alaba-
ma report that the feeling in regard to Vicks-
burg is very Respondent, and reports of the
repulse of Grants army was frequently cir
culated to cheer the people up. jackson pa
pers, for instance, say that Grant lost 10000
men in his assault on the goth, and that john
ston was gaining advantages on Grants rear.
The rebel general Johnston was endeavOr-
ing to organize the state militia in central
Mississippi, but with poor success. The Peo-

COLCoRD CHURCH, five miles from Tulla-
homa, June 30.-'rhe situation here S not
materially changed. reconnaissance was
made to-day within three miles and half of
the rebel stronghold. The rain has continued
for the last forty eight hours, and has been UNI
usually heavy. The roads are in a terrible
condition. Movements must be prevented
thereby; but with his characteristic persever-
and persistence, Gen. Rosecrans has pushed
on.
Col. Wilder's expedition returned o.day.
He burned the bridge at Decher, and destroyed
large part of the railroad track. He found
only a small garrison at DeCher, whom he
whipped and drove out, but Immediately
After he burned the bridge, a large force of
the enemy came in. Decker is only twelve
miles in the rear OF Tullahoma. The whist
ling of locomotives was distinctly heard yes
terday, at Tullahoma. This is the only foun-
daton for the rumor that the rebels are re-
treating to Chattanooga. Little doubt is en-
tertained that the enemy will fight us here,
but their silence is very strange.
THE country is very difficult to operate in,
being low, level, marShy, and covered with
brush Stevens brigade made a reconnois-
sance to- day within l-2 miles of Tullahoma.
Two regiments of rebels were encountered,
and an engagement ensued in which The enc

The 10th Indiana and 4th Kentucky regi-
ments were principally engaged
The Chattanooga Rebel of the 9th and
29th says One hundred wounded of Stewards
division have arrived from the field Of Beech
| Grove. 1t also says, two divisions are en-
gagged at Liberty and Hoover Gaps. Mean
time reinforcements are being hurried for
ward. Five brigades passed up yesterday,
and John r. jackson has received dispatches
to hold himself in readiness.
The rebel loss was 100 killed, and 400 or
500 wounded.
The Rebel of the 2Sth, on the situation
says There is no question that the enemy
is approaching, and a great battle is to be
fought. Every preparation is being made to
give him warm reception. Baggage and sick
are being sent to the rear and reinforcements
to the front. Another brigade from western
Virginia pass SD up yesterday, chiefly Virginia
troops, in their first campaign. The Tennes-
see portion of Buckner's command also
passed up last evening, and jackson
will probably follow in the morning. We
reach Montgomery, having ba 1Hisff Recalled By
Gen. Johnston to jackson. We overrated

will not exceed two hundred; not seventy five
of them were killed. There was report last
