DEAR SfR~-In reply TO your note, beg
leave 10 say that think tho course ] rec.
ommend il the best possible course TO attain
the great object We are aiming at, the es-
tablishmcnt Of our independence. II pro-
eeeds upon two leading IDEAS:
|. To reconcile the North, or such Por-
tion as may be rational, 10 our independ-
enee by harmonizfng, rs much rs possible,
our independence with their material inter
est.
9. TO aysil ourselves of the division Of
sentiment 1t the North.
II was to give potency 10 these two ideas
&C the South that / insisted so strenaously
IN my letter to tho President, on the dang.
err TO our republican Institutions from che
indefinite continuance OF the war.

Chicago platform. Now, shoak We par.

Let me call your attention % another
fact. In the event Of The assembling Of q
Congress Of the Siascs, il = manifest that,
in that Congress, from the Northern States,
would be represented two adverse systems
Of ideas-ore having the apimsn Of tho
Chicago platform, the ether Of The Lincoln
programme. The first Of these weald Ne
In the ascendeney, because the very con-
Yening Of Che Congress necessarily implies
the defeat Of Lincoln and his system, as il
Il web understood that Lincoln and tho
party he representa- are utterly opposed 10
the assembling Of this Congress.
Under this state Of facts, m abrupt d.
vision Of sentiment would be fband in the
Congress betweea the opponenla and the
supporters 81 Isincolia. From this there

UuoN Mills, Va, May 6--9 PM
The grand Army Of the Potomac crossed
the Rapidan on Wednesday. The Sec
ond Corps moved on Tuesday to the
mills opposite Ely's Ford On Wednes-
day morning at four o'clock the cavalry
crossed and drove the rebel pickets from
the heights, meeting with no opposition.
The position was carried, and the corps
moved on at seven o'clock, taking the
road to Charlottesville, at which place
Hancock would establish his headauar-
ters. The Fifth and Sixth Corps crossed
at Germania Ford 10 the course Of the
day, taking the road TO the Wilderness.
On Wednesday night Warren's head
quarters we're at the Wilderness, Sedg-
wick at his right and the general head
quarters at Germania Ford. On Thurs
day morning the rebels pressed our
piekets and appeared in strong force on
our right.
The 9Th New York cavalry skirmishers
on the Orange Court House road, near
Perkins farm. we're driven in with some
loss, leaving many wounded on the
field Gritiith's division charged for
ward on our right, about ii o'clock, to
feel tho enemys position, and were met
By the rebel General A. p. Hill, sup
ported by Gen. Ewell An action took
place in which we captured about three
hundred prisoners, though It is reported
we lost two guns, In the meantime,
Hancock marched his corps to the right,
to connect with Warren, and had hardly
got into position, bis left resting on or
near Charlottesville, when he was at
tackled by Longstreet with his full corps
and part Of Ewells. Hancock, with the
assistance Of Gettys division Of the 9th
corps, was under muAket fire for two
and half hours, in which bis command
suffered severely, and inflicted much in.
jury upon the rebels.
Other developments show that Lee has
his whole force in our front This knowl.
edge Of their position was, of course,
highly important, and was thus obtained
only by the greatest skill in handling ouI
troops. II not being the purpose oil
General Meade TO advance on the enc.
my, he ordered the line Of battle to be
held till morning
The position of our troops Tuesday
night was parallel with and little il
advance of the road from Germans
Ford TO Chancellorsville, the two flank
resting on these points, and the genera

while, In the afternoon the advance o

Burnside is in the rear this A. NJ.

was to be made this morning, and heavy
firing had commenced when left, 81
. o'clock Heavy firing was heard wher
! passed Kslly's Ford, about . o'clock
A. ~, which leads US to believe we hat
driven them to their defences, as nc

Extract from a letter Near Dallas, Ga,
May 9th, 1861
Yesterday we had some hard fighting,
but our whole army was not engaged
Woods division, Of the 4th corps, was
sent around on the left. intending to
strike the enemy on the left flank, but
they had conformed their right to our
line. by retiring the flank, and we struck
first Clayborn's division, which was en-
treDched behind good works, on a high
ridge. Our brigade, 3d. was in reserve,
when the advance commenced with four
lines in front, ours in two, making in all,
six lines of battle. Those six lines melt
ed rapidly into one, and advanced gal
lantly under a terrible fire of musketry
and artillery, over the crest of one ridge,
and close under the works on the next.
There they remained, Notwithstanding
their support on the right and the left
TANKS gave way, and they were in conse-
quence, exposed to heavy enflsding fires.
Their ammunition gave out, and their po-
sition, before critical, was now most per-
ileus. To retreat was almost certain des-
truction, and to remain, seemed madness.
But they did remain, holding their posi-
ton till ten or eleven o'clock at night,
although they had orders to withdraw in
the darkness. if too hard pressed. About
eleven o'clock, after all had been quiet
for an hour or more, all at once, burst
forth the most terrible yolley of musket-
ry L ever heard. All tho't our brigade
was scattered to the four winds, and the
awful roar of musketry continuing, the
worst was feared. Soon, however, the
18th came marching in on comnlon fine.
and in excellent order, with the gallant
Henderson at its head. Among the cas-
ualities of the 10Th, as heal as l can learn,
at this writing, are Major Nash, severely,
wounded in the head; Capt. Smith, Sc
verel, but not dangerously. in the head;
Lieut.. Reid, injured. but not severely
Ira Haight and his brother. wounded,
badly / cannot learn.
JUNE lst.-The enemy have made sew
eral desperate assaults upon portions of
our lines, all of which have been repulsed,
most of them with terrible slaughter to
themselves. They Jared roughly in front
Of n of Gen. Cox's brigsdes. They left
10 killed and wounded on the ground.
