"Details of TIE Battle of Resaca, Ga.

Details of the Battle of Resaca, Ga.
I New YORK, June q
The Tribunes correspondent says of the de-
feat of Johnston at Resaca:
Our forces had been moved SO as to form a
semi-circle around the rebels, leaving only the
direction towards Resaca for them to escape.
They attempted, however, to turn our left.
and massed heavy column out of view for
that purpose. The movement was discovered
Just as they were ready to charge. The 5th
Indiana battery was brought to bear upon the
advancing column with grape and canister,
when the rebels concentrated TO take the bat
terry. AT this juncture Hooker's corps poured
INTO them such murderous fire that they re-
coiied, ana soon sought the woods upon the
double quick. During the night Johnston or
dered ms army away from the front. 1t was
found after the rebels had retreated that they
mad scalped some of our dead and perpetrated
other barbarities. The retreat OF the rebels
gave evidence of panic. Torn and bloody
clothing cast away, blankets and muskets bent
and broken or thrown into mud holes and
gulches, were found scattered along their
track. Many dead and wounded were also
found, and field hospitals, where the dead and
wounded we're LEFT interminged. The inhab-
i,ants of Resaca all fed with the army. A
quantity of corn and meal which they could
not get of was found, the sacks cut open and
Inc contents splued IN the haste to secure
subsistence for families. Resaca had been
strongly fortified, and could not have been
carried by assault, nor could il have been
thanked, as it would have proved trap to the
enemy that went into il. But all their labor
upon it was lost, as not gun was fired from
its elaborate breastworks. At place called
Oak Grave the rear of Johnston's army was
oyerhauled, and a sharp fire ensued, but DUR
ing the night the rebels resumed their retreat.
Rockers and Schofelis corps form the left
wing, and pursued route parallel to the
grand centre columns. They were met with
much determination by the rebels at Cass-
vile, but gallant charge upon their breast
works and barbados soon sent them pell nell
out OF the place under hot pursuit. Al Kings
ton Johnston made brief pause, and the
rear guard showed fight two miles out, but
our forces took possession of the place with
out opposition. Johnston has retreated be-
fore Sherman to within four miles Of Atlanta,
where final battle will take place.

81 hope that you give no connte-
nance TO the dissansions among those
who have acted together in support
OF the government, but who are rem
dering it possible, by attacks upon
the administration, for the democrats
to achieve success. There are sins
enough to be atoned for, but there ia
only one course that can be pursued
with safety. We must support the
administration and the nominations
made at Baltimore. 1t is too late to
change front. The enemy are upon
us. We must suffer defeat or gnin
victory under our present leaders.
The nomination Of Lincoln may have
been n mistake ; an attempt to substi-
tute any other person would now he
greater mistake, What wa necd,
and all we need, is courage. Private
disappointments, personal griefs
must bo disregarded. The issue il
between Mr.. Lincoln and the nomi-
nee Of the Chicago convention, Who
ever the latter may he, and whatever
the platform, the policy will be the

Fcmale Friendship.

A curious trial is coming Off at the
Lincoln Assizos. A married woman,
of the name Of Martha Howell, had
fallen, IL appears, SO desperately in
love with a young woman Of the nsms
of johnson, living at Gainesborough,
that after various fits OF wild jeal-
ousy and violence, caused by Miss
Johnsen's preference for other COM
panions, she loaded pistol and gave
her her choice between returning to
her old friendship or dying on the
spot, after which Martha Howell in-
tended to- destroy herself. She put
too much powder into the pistol,
which jerked it upwards, 30 thst
though she pistol went of, Miss John
son escaped, but Of the intention TO
kill there Can be no doubt. Howell
is said to bc quite composed and clear
in her mind, and to have expressed
frequently her regret that she did not
succeed, and her perfect willingness
to be hanged il she had. Woman's
enthusiasm for each other is often Of
vehement, frothy and hysterica
kind, but the "your love oryour life"
sort of passion was, we thought re-
served fer another relation,-Londo
