Surrender Of uMiSM CITY

SURRENDER Oh UNION SlsS
Cairo, March ..
Our force at Union City met with
disaster yesterday. At an carly hour
on the morning ofthc 23d, intelligence
was receiyed'sby Gen. Erayman that
Forrest was advancing on Uuion City
with 1000 men. lie sent Captain
Odtin, A. A. G. to ascertain the truth
Of the report. The Captain found the
pickets driven in and afterwards the
wires were cut. Things looked so IN
favorable that Gen. Hrayman proceeded
to Columbus with 5000 men and one
battery, where he was informed that
Col. Hawkins, who commanded at
Union City could probably held out
until he could be reinforced. Troops
were Immediately forwarded by train
to within six miles from Union City.
Hawkins had surrendered with his
whole command, which consisted of
the Seventh Tennessee cavalry number
ing 1926 men, al armed and equipped
aud 800 OF them mounted. A few mules
and an insignificant amount OF stores
fell into the hands ofdhe enemy.
After destroying the Notifications The
rebels retrcated south, taking their pri.
soncrs. They numbered not more than
one fourth Of what was at first reported,
with no artillery.

Tribute to the w est.

The following glowing tribute to the
West is taken from a recent number Of
the New York Times" The facts as
therein stated vii in future history for
ever rebound to the honor Of the West,
for having SO promptly furnished men
for crushing this gigantic rebellion.
We Of the West may well I'll proud
of this tribute:
THE loyal States arc divided into
four great divisions-the Eastern States
or New England, the Middle States, the
West and the Border States. In ex-
aiming the table, We find hat, previous
to the call Ut last week the number Of
soldiers due on former calls from the
Elk New England States was s,504-
from the four Middle States, New York
New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Ohio
loo, 499-and from the five Border
States, Delaware, Maryland, Western
Virginia, Kentucky and Missouri,
SO, St7 while in the seven Western
States there was an aggregate credit Of
forty one thousand six hundred aud
4ine.y. Regard being had to the ratio
Of the population, the deficiency in the
Border States is about twelve and q half
out Of 4 thousand; in the Middle States
about ten out Of 4 thousand; in New
England about two and half out Of a
thousand while in the Western States
there is a positive oyerplus Of nearly
one in thousand.
This exhibit is most extraordinary.
But extraordinary as it is, it cannot be
contraiicted. The data are official :
the results are as certain as arithmetic.
What do they mean? Is it indeed true
that there is this graduation in the qua
lily OF the patriotism Of the differen,
divisions Of the SO called loyal part o.
the country? Must We admit that tn,
West is first in the earnestness Of he,
devotion to the old flag, New England
next, the Middle States next, land mex.
TOO. with long intcrvaD, and the Bor.
der States last !? Il will &c hard, but
