rately in the next. fight, or ] wish /
could write so as to stir them up.
A recent battle order from General
Hood contains the following instruc-
lions:
Another point to be observed in
making an attack is, that the troops,
when advancing in line Of battle,
should not be moved at the double
quick step, OF be in any way Unneces-
sarily fatigued before engaging the
enemy, that they may be in the best
possible condition expressing him, and
improving any advantage which may
be gained
II is certain that if the men are fed
plentifully just before goinginto battle,
the deaths from loss of blood wounds
are reduced from q terrible proportion
down to almost nothing. During di-
gestion you may take a quantity Of
blood from a man with safety, the half
of which taken from him while fasting
will be certain death. The knowledge
of this fact is also interesting TO sur
geons who are called upon to perform
operations causing great loss OF blood.

some general understanding, a numbCS
of principal men, most of them elected
as Deputies by their respective towns,
/ assembled, on the eighth of May, ct
Hartford, to consult together on the ex-
pediency Of taking that step. They
( determined to submit, the next day, to
/ the decision of the assembled freemen
/ three questions, namely: /. Whether
/ they would that those in place and
power when Sir Edmund Andres took
/ the government should resume their
place and power as they we're then or,
, Whether they would continue the
present government; or, 3. Whether
they would choose a Committee OF
Safety"
The adoption Of any one Of these pro
posals disposed of the others. The first
Of them was first submitted to q vote,
and prevailed. A General Court after
lhe ancient pattern was constituted ac-
cOrdingly. The persons just deputed
from the towns made the Lower House
Governor Treat and Lieutenant-Goyer-
nor Bishop resumed their functions,
With ten Magistrates elected with them
Two years before, besides others now
chosen 70 Gil the places Of Magistrates
who had died meanwhile
The first measure Of the Court was,
to order that all the laws Of this Col
ony formerly made according to Char
ger, and courts constituted IN this Col
Ony for administration of justice, rs
they were before the late interruption,
hould be Of full force and virtue for
the future, and till the Court should see
cause 10 make further and other altera-
ton and provision according to Char
ter" The second vote was, to confirm
all the present military officers" JUS
tees of the Peace were appointed for
the towns. The armament of the fort
1t Saybrool5 was provided for The
Governor was charged to convene the
General Court, "in case any occasion
should come on in reference to the
Charter or Government" 1t was soon
convened accordingly, in consequence
Of the arrival of intelligence Of the nc
cession of William and Mary TO the
throne; day Of Thanksgiving was ap-
pointed; and the King and Queen were
proclaimed with all sOiemnity.
In both Of these instances, an imme-
date and direct appeal was made to
the people, as the source and fountain
Of all power; in one case convention
was called and in the other, direct
votes were taken at the town meetings
This policy has been ever since com
mended by historians, and political
economists; and it is the only safe one
to pursue All officials legally quail
fed, before the rebellion, are now out
Of office; the civil authorities have been
suspended; and the only remedy is a
direct appeal to the sovereign masses.
The people of Massachusetts and Con
necticut resolved on a restoration Of
the old order of things, ignoring all the
acts Of the usurper Such would doubt
less be the resolution of a convention
Of Tennesseans, so far as it would be
compatible with the existing situation
of affairs. The war has rendered but
one change necessary-the abolition Of
slavery; and when q convention has
provided for that, and selected tempo
rary officers to fill vacancies till an
election can be held, it can adjourn.

M0remenls Of General steele.

The Memphis Bulletin of the ODD
inst. says;
We gave a statement from an Arlan-
sas correspondent, q few days ago OF
the successful advance of Gen. Steele
The writer stated that by tho time his
letter reached US Gen. Steele would be
in Camden. The cotton boat Nerango
arrived here from below last evening,
and reported that General, better
known as Daddy Price, finding that
Steele was approaching, and knowing
his utter inability to withstand the
forces at his command, once more act
ell upon the system OF tactics for which
he is renowned, carrying out once more
the Daddy Price mOvement-a retreat
He evacuated Camden, and the VerlL-
90 reports that the place was entered
and occupied by Gen. Steele whose en-
trance was entirely unopposed.
Camden is situated on the Washita
river, in Washita county; it is about 40
miles from the Louisiana and 90 miles
from the Texas line, and within forty
miles Of the Red river, considerably
above Shreveport. We have heard Of
no impediment existing between Cam
den and Shreveport, and presume that
Steele, probably strengthened by Thay-
er and Clayton, viii be able to support
Banks, and aid in insuring the capture
Of Shreveport.

The object of Gen Banks's Red river
expedition has been ineXplicable to us,
but a special correspondent Of the Phil
adelphia Press writing from Grand
Ecore, on the 10th inst, says, his cam
paign has a political as well as military
design. The importance OF the South
west may be properly estimated when
we consider our relations with Mexico,
and the embaTrass ments OccaslOned by
the French interference with that re-
public The occupation Of Brownsville,
on the Rio Grande, by General Banks,
last year, did much toward checking
the designs of the French Emperor.
An American army was placed on the
frontier of the new-made dependency,
and any diplomacy between Davis
and Napoleon was thus shattered
and silenced That occupation was
merely a check. TO make it check
mate, the capture of Shreveport was
necessary. This town occupies a point
in the extreme Northwestern part of
Louisiana, near the boundary line Of
Arkansas and Texas At the head Of
steamboat navigation on the Red river,
in the midst of the largest and richest
cotton districts in the transMississippi
Department., the rebel capitol Of Loui-
siana, the headquarters Of Kirby Smith
and the depot OF supplies for the rebel
army, Shreveport is as important to
this department as Chattanooga or
Richmond If merely military consid-
erations had controlled, it IS probable
that the armies of this department
would have been devoted to an expe-
dition against Mobile, or a cooperating
movement with the army Of General
Sherman. But the Government de
sired Shreveport and the undistFbed
possession of the Mississippi, and Gen.
Banks was charged with the duty Of
taking it.
