vu I" Commtssaries and Supplies"
We find the following article in the vicksbur,

w hiiu Iho ioiioWihS aTtlcIo IN the Nlcksburg
Wing, Of I'd April:
Mr.. Editor: The Knoxville Register has got
Information that the army at this place is in a
most destitute and starving condition, and con-
tends that tho sCommissary must be grossly at
fault, since contracts can easily be made and sup
plies in abundance obtained.
The readers of the Register arc doubtless in
terested in the welfare Of the gallant men who
are defending Vicksburg, and we beg to assure
them that although during season of unusual
high water, bad roads, and the chaos of railroud
transportation there was some temporary grounds
of complaint, yet that has given way before the
better weather, and energetic application of the
officers charged with the responsibilities of the
supply department,
We think every division has been cared for and
their necessities attended to. This we know to
be true of Gen. Stevenson's, who, himself has
wen golden opinions in all circles hereabouts and
will leave bright record when the history of this
campaign is written, and who probably, never
would have heard soldier complain had Major
Gillespie, his division oommssary, been left I'M
trammeod to complete his plans for obtaining
supplies from Tennessee and other places
The Register has been informed "that the Com
missary department is to blame"
If it be so of any one, il is not so of Major g.,
and his Knoxville friends may rest assured that
he has no superior in efficiency or success. lie
is eminently fitted for his position and will con
time to grow in the esteem Of his superiors and
the army generally, if he pursues the same course
of manly duty and devotion to the labors of his
department
Give us few more such men in evcry position
and Office, and new day will soon dawn on us.

circling Fredericksburg. The boxes
opened with shell, grape and canister

upon thelpit, and then followed not
battle, but slaughter. TIE soldiers
were murdered--not in the phrase of
war, "killed." :" They were led to
slaughter not to fight. The great
question is: 1Vho dldH? Burnside7
No" we are told, empbatically mo-"
though Burnside is seemingly re-
Hponsible. The World says positively:
General Burnside acted under
strict orders; be was compelled TO
move on FeGt ricksburg by pert mp
tory directions from Washington,
which domineered over bis Judgment
and exiorted bis OBJ, dierce. When
he was ordered to Fredericksburg lie
had The promise OF General HaIleck

mandcrs opposed the advance; but

We hear the some upon high au-

W lille the Arid was deprived of

The reason given Was that this YES

statement from the Vienna correspondent Of

cate that the plans of Louis Napoleon are
about to receive more than one counter-check
at the congress Of German sovercigns now sit
ting at Frankfort. Notwithstanding the osten.
sible rapprochement which seemed OF late to
have taken place between France and Austria,
Il is now certain that one of the principal
motives for the calling together at the present
time Of the members Of the Bund was a well
founded apprehension that the projects Of the
French Emperor In regard to Poland were
pregnant with danger to Germany ITSELF The
Prussian monarch has, unfortunately for his
own interests, held aloof from IL, blinded by the
unaccountable infatuation which has placed
him In violent antagonism to bis people. He
could not have pursued course that could
have ch,med in better with the views OF Napo-
leon. The prudence Of Francis Josephs ad-

however, neutralise the advantages that he

ses not only TO spoil bis game In Europe, but on
