TALLMAK'S. Akron, Nov. 28, 1661. JltflBSON CO, Have now on hand ono of the largest and beBt se- biocks oi Ready-Made Clothing, of onr own make, EVER BROUGHT TO AKRON. HAVING bought our Piece Goods, before the can assure tbe publio tbat Our Prices will suit the Times.

We cull particular attention to our Stock of OVEZR-CO-A-TS, whioh we made up during Summer and FalL We nave also a large stook of HatsJandCaps, Wrappers, Drawers, on the eauses, and objects of the war. Tour Senator remarked that he could ei. dorse the resolutions, at an individual, and would go still further. He would nse the Slaves to exterminate the South, if necessary, to preserve the Union, but he was not sent here, at a Senator, to make political Platforms. He therefore aeked to be excused from voting on the resolutions.

If the Legislature would leave Platform-making to the people, and party conventions, and attend to their Legislative duties, I think it wonld be far better for the State. In these times, especially, tbe leas that is said, calculated to revive old party feelings, the better. Let all our energies be united to oarry on tbe war to a successful close. In Akron, you know but little about the evils of the war. The other day, when the 29th Regiment were ordered to Virginia, they had not received their pay many were rag ged, and the officers could not buy a saddle, or bridle.

Major Clemmer, of yonr County, was ordered to the command of his Regiment, but there was the rub. He had a horse, but no saddle, nor money. Mr. Eierce, the Senator from your District, Mr. Rockwell, Representative from Portage, and Judge Spalding, purchased for him a $45 Baddle, and Mr.

Johnson, Representative from your County, gave him 10 in money. On leaving their Camp, Capt. Hays, from Trumbull County, was left sick in his quarters. He lay there twenty-four hours without a person coming into his room. During the time, a wharf-rat thinking him a waif that any one might appropriate, commenced on his prey by biting him through the nose.

On Saturday last, Gen. Bierce took him to his boarding house, where he is well cared for. He says he brought $70 from home with him, whioh is used up, and the Government owes him over $600, and yet he has not money to hire a per son to keep the rats from devouring him alive. Many of the good people of Columbus have taken in the si ok soldiers, and cared for them with the care of a mother. Instead of providing for them, Buncom runs in "Bills for the relief of lhe families of soldiers Some half dozen Bills have been presented in the two Houses.

Odo passed the House, the other day, levying a half mill on the dollar for that purpose, and allowing the Treasurer of the County one fifth of a mill on the dollar for collecting, and disbursing it The half mill tax would produce $446,000 of which the Treasurers would get $89,000 leaving $357,000 for the families of'soldiers, In the Senate a motion was made to raise the tax to three fourths of a mill on the dol lar, which would produce $557,500. More patriotism burst out in another Senator who moved to raise the tax to one mill on the dollar, which would raise $892,000, and add to the Treasurers fees $178,000. The Bill, as it came from the House, was that this tax should be levied for the years 18C2 and 1863 so that if the war should end in the Spring, as many believe it will, the people of Ohio would be taxed for the support of the families of soldiers, eighteen months after the soldiers are at home. Your Senator, and Senator Groesbeck of Cincinnatti, pitched into it. Mr.

Groesbeck made one of the most conclusive, and convincing arguments I ever heard. He had no clap-trap, but spoke of the necessity of saving our means to carry on the war that our proportion of the inlerett of the public debt of this war would be at least four million annually, whioh, added to our present annual tax, whioh is eleven millions, would make $15,000,000 a year and that, to add on almost a million dollars a year more, was ruinous. Your Senator said he was aware, from appearances, that he should vote in a "triumphant minority," but if the Bill was pushed on, in its present proposed shape, he should voto against the Bill and if not sustained by his constituents, he would resign. That rather than have a tax of three-fourths of a mill, or a mill, on a dollar, laid for two years, he would con-promise on a tax of half a mill for the present year but would vote against any Bill for a tax of more than half a mill, and for more than one year. The year 1863 was finally stricken out, and three-fourths of a mill inserted, in which condition it was referred to the Committee on military sffairs.

In what shape it will come back from the Committee, no one oan tell. I think the ultra taxationists will have to compromise on half a mill on the dollar, or the Bill will be defeated. Last week Senator McBurney offered a res olution, that our Senators in Congress bo instructed, and our Representatives be re quested, to use their influence to procure the passage of a law restraining the abuses of the sutler's department in the army. Your Senator moved to amend by Btriking out all after the word "resolved," and inserting that our Senators in Congress be instructed, and onr representatives be requested to use their influence to procure the passage of a law abolishing the office of sutler in army. He gave the startling fact that when $30,000 was paid to onr soldiers in Camp Chase, $19 000 of it went directly into the hands of tbe sutlers that the soldiers were charged by them five cents a cheet for paper, and five cents for three cent letter stamps and other thinge in proportion.

That the whole system was a legalized system of robbery on the Boldiers. Senator Eggleston, of Cincinnati, backed him up in a most effective speech on the demoralizing tendency of the system. The resolution with the amendment, was re ferred to the standing committee on Federal relations. I think the feeling is decidedly against this curse of the army. On Saturday evening by invitation of the Governor, the Committees on Retrenchment from the two houses met at the Governor's house, to interchange views on the subjects that can be cut down, or cut off in the ex penditures.

Governor Tod and Auditor Tay lor met with them. A free and rather social communication took in which every one gave his opinion without any formality, I think I can Bay that there was no differ ence of opinion in the following respect-To cut off the office of State House Commis sioner, one or two Janitors, or keepers, the Commissioner of Statistics, and transfer his duties to the Secrotary of State, School Com missioner, and I think the office of Comptrol ler, will follow suit but this is not so certain. I think Governor Dennison's recom mendation to appropriate $66,000 to make an iron fence round the publio square and set out trees, will find no friends. The Journals of the House and Senate will be cut down at loost one half In quantity of matter and number rf oopies. I think the laws will not be published in the newspapers, and tho' there is a more divided opinion on this sub ject, tbe prevailing opinion seems to be to dispense, this year, with publishing the Ag ricultural report.

Last, though not the least, I think the res olation of your Senator Is meeting withmuoh favor to cut down local taxation for school purposes. The State tax for the support of common schools the past year was over $1, 200,000. To this was addeh, by local taxa tion for school purposes, over $1,600,000, making over $2,700,000 a year. Five mil lion dollars have been expended la the last four yeers for school houses, and the State ought to be pretty well supplied. The State fund will be left untouched, which will pay teaohersfor keeping up the schools the year round; but retrench at least a million a dollars a year in the local taxes.

I have given you an outline of retrench ment which I think will be made. If it is, we osn pay our portion of the war tax with out increasing our taxes at all. If extravagant notions of patriotism in appropriations, and taxation are to prevail, our patriotism will wax la groaning nnder the load of taxes. Borne Senators say they are wining to vote their Uvea, their property, their all. Well, I Ens.

Bsacoj The Committee on Mili tia have finally reported "the bill for relief of families of soldiers," amended by making the tax half a mill on the dollar, and allowing the Treasurer one fifth of on per cent. for collecting and disbursing. In this form think it will pass the Senate and the House; unless the House strike out the compensation to the Treasurer. This tax is tbe same as last year. LOBBY.

Whereupon, a donation vIbK was paid him at the hoaae of Mr. Joseph White -who, with hia lady, are aotive in every good oaaae and I assure yon.

CODDING, Presidents Mrs. Jno.Ptarb, Secretary. The Bnrnside Expedition Effects of the Storm. Fortress Monrok, Jan. 27.

By the arrival of toe steamer Eastern State we have the first dispatch and official intelligence of the Burnside expedition. The Eastern left Ha tteras Inlet last night, and arrived here late this afternoon. The recent storms were unusually severe at Hatteras, and considerably delayed and orippled the expedition but when the Eastern State left everything looked favorable. The Bnrnside Expedition sailed from Hampton Roads on the 11th and 22th of January, and consisted of over 125 vessels of all classes. They arrived at Hatteras between the 12 and 17th inst, having been greatly retarded by severe storms and adverse winds which prevailed during that time.

After their arrival at Hatteras they experienced a series of nnparraled storms that at times it was impossible to hold communication between any two vessels of the fleet. After the storm it was discovered thst no vessel drawing over seven feet three inches could pass into amlioo Sound. No vessel either oould pass outside the bar drawing over 13 feet water, unless very skill fully piloted. Consequently tbe City of New York Btruck on the outside of the bar. She had a cargo valued at $200,000 of powder rmes and bombs, and proved a total loss, Her crew were saved.

The steamer Pocahontas went ashore near the light house, and became a total wreck. Ninety valuable horses belonging to the Rhode Island battery were on board of her and were all drowned, including several valued at $500 each. The Grape Shot parted her hawser and went down at sea. Her crew were saved. An unknown schooner, loaded with oats, and another schooner, name unknown, with six of her crew, were lost on the beach.

The steamer Louisiana struck on the bar, where-she still remrins. The report of her burning is incorrect. She may get off. The Eastern Queen and the Voltigeur were also ashore. The latter will probably get ott.

Foreign News. How the news of lilt surrender of ton and Slidcll was received in England. Halifax, Jan. 26. The Europe, from Liverpool on the 11th, via Queonstown tho 12th, arrived last night.

She brines neither troops or stores, and the government bas discontinued shipments by the Cunarders. It was reported that warlike preparations at Woolwich bad not been relaxed. Steamers continued taking on heavy stores for Halifax and Jamaica. Seward's dispatches were considered in Council on the 9 th. The Times understands that an answer will be returned expressing gratiticatton at tbe disavowal ot Uom.

Wilkes act, accepting the satisfaction tendered. Assuming that theprecedant in the Trent case will rule tbe case of the schooner Eugene Smith, as to the law of neutrals, the Govern ment will decline to answer until it has an opportunity of submitting the whole note to thtir law officers. There are propositions in the note not admissible, but after release of the prisoners they may be properly discussed. Tbe Morning Post announces that a thorough understanding with tbe American Government had been arrived at, end that Sew ard will have suceeded in impressing on tbe English Government the notion that they have not only present indemnity, but no small pledge of future security. The Times fixes England's expense, owing to tbe late difficulty, at 2,000,000, but when the bills are all in it will double that amount hut that money hasn't been thrown away.

Tbe Daily News is eulogistic of the course pursued by the Washington Government, and bitterly denounces the policy of the Times and Poet. The Times has a strong editorial on recep tion due to Mason and Slidell, and says they are about the most worthless booty it would be possible to extract from the jaws of tbe American lion, having been loog known as habitual haters and rentiers ot England, and sincerely hopes that Englishman won't give these follows an ovation. England has returned them good for evil, and if they can, will be only too willing to entail her in war with the North. England wonld have done the same for two negroes-Other journals advise a similar course. From Washington.

Washington, Jan. 24. The following has been issued by the War Department This Department recognizes as tho first duty to take measures for the relief of the brave men who, having imperiled their lives in tbe military servioe of the Government, are now prisoners and oaptives, it is tbererore ordered that two Commissioners be appointed to visit the City of Richmond, and wherever else prisoners belonging to tbe army of the United States, may be held, and there take such measures as may be needful to promote the wants and contribute to the oomfort of such prisoners, at the expense of tho United 8tates. to such extent as may be permitted by the authorities under whom such prisoners are held. I Signed EDWIN M.

STANTON, Seo'y of War. From Washington. Washington, Jan. 25. Brigadier General T.

W. Sherman, in an article to tho National Intelligencer deems it due to tho interests of the publio service to publicly proclaim the utter falsity of the statement made in several journals of the country, and repeatedly brougbt to his notice, that a projected plan for the continuance of the expedition was abandoned in consequence of a disagreement or misunderstanding be tween Com. Dupont and himself. He says the most fnendly and cordial feelings and entire harmony of action have always existed between tbem. To-day being devoted by the Secretary of War for business with members or Congress a very large number of them are availing themselves of this arrangement.

The Latest From Itomncy. By a telegram received in this city, whioh is the name of the camp at Patterson's Creek, where our foroes now are, we learn that Jackson has fallen back with the larger portion of his troops to Unger's Store, within fifteen miles of Winchester, at the junotion of the Springfield Road with the Romney and Winchester Pike, leaving Gen. Loring with his brigade still in Romney. The enemy has evacuated Springgeld, which ia now held by ur troops. Though we are no prophets, we predict that in this state of the case, the enemy now in Romney will, some oold morning, not very far distant, retire from Romney as as thev did on a lats acoaslon at This fight is called battle of Hill Creek-battle of Fishing Creek battle of CI iff Creek, and so on.

From private letters to CoL Standart of this city, we gain information as to the position of the forces. Gen. Thomas, with about seven regiments, including 9th 0., 2d 10th soms cavalry, and Kenney's (Geneva, 0.) battery, had come on Saturday to within about eight. miles of Somerset, on tbe Columbia road, at what is called Logan's Forks. Oa Friday our troops at Somerset marched out for the same place.

Two regiments going by a road called the lower road, and the others by the Colum bia road. Those by the lower route were prevented by the back water from the Cumberland from crossing Turkey Creek as in tended at Hudson. Un Saturday, four regi ments were ordered back to Somerset Mean while heay rain fell, raising the streams still higher. Standart's Battery went with the force of Thomas' camp. Wetmore's Battery remained at Somerset.

On Saturday night, the rebels nnder Gen. Crittenden, left camp to attack onr foroes, nnder the supposition tbere were but three regiments at Logan's Forks: he, no doubt. had knowledge of the four regiments ordered oacx to somerset. The attack was made early Sunday morning. The returned forces to Somerset were sent forward again on Sunday, arriving at the scene of operation before Monday motning.

There were but few prisoners taken; one of which said that he was made to believe that they oould walk over the Yankees, and one of them could whip eight. Zollicofier's body bad been fully identified by people at Somerset who knew him personally. A correspondent of the Cincinnati Gazette says: zollicofter's corpse. He lay in a tent wrapped in an army blan ket, hie chest, and left arm and side exposed. A tall, rather slender man, with thin, brown bair, high forehead, somewhat bald, Roman nose, firm wi mouth and clean Bhaved face.

A pistol ball had struck him in the breast, a little above the heart, killing him instantly. His face bore no expression snch as is usually found on those who fall in battle no malice, no reckless hate, not even a shadow of physical pain. It was calm, placid, noble. But I have never looked on a countenance so marked with sadness. standart's battery.

Another correspondent Bays: The enemy formed in two fields, attacking the Indiana troops both in front and npon their left flank. A section of Capt. Standart's battf ry had been brought up, and was stationed in the road. The attack here was made about seven o'clock in tbe morning. Colonel ManBon coming up to the position just after the attack began, and seeing that his men must be overpowered before the other regiments oould come up, ordered his men to fall back, which they did in good order, fighting as they went Capt Standart reluotanfly gave up tbe privilege of giving the enemy one good blizzard" from tbat point, and retired, too.

HOW ZOLLIUOFFER FELL. A short dietanco from Zolliooffer, a party of his men had been broken from their com rades and were herding together like fright ened deer. Col. Fry's men were just abou to fire on them. Gen.

Z. was oa foot an within a few feet of the Colonel. A gum ooa concealed his uniform. Seeing the condition of his men, as the Colonel rode np Gen. Z.

said to Col. Fry, "Colonel, you wouid not fire upon your friends, would you?" CoL Fry supposed, from the General's manner and remark, that he was one of our own officers, replied, "Certainly not, sir; I have no such intention." He turned and rode a few steps, when one of Zollicofier's Aids fired at him, wounding his horse. Believing he was tricked, Col. Fry at onoe wheeled and filed at the General. The latter raised his hand to his breast and fell dead.

Another ball struck him at the same moment, I believe, in the arm. bailie pettoh, jr. Here, too, fell young Bailie Peyton, son of a venerable man well known to the nation. Young Peyton, like his father, struggled long against disunion. He was hissed and insulted in the streets last May for telling his love for the old Union.

THE CHAROE OF THE OHIO 9TH AND IOtH INDIANA. McCook's gallant Dutchmen came up to support the Tenth, forming on their right, and with tbem, driving the enemy out of the woods, over the ravine, up the hill, across the field to the right of the road. Standart's battery was in full play, with deadly effect, on their center. Kinney's and Wetmore's were advancing. There was no help for it, the day was lost to the rebels, and they must retreat.

They wore pushed back, flying as they went across the fields. Bob McCook was wounded and his horse shot under him. But a bullet through the heart would hardly stop him. THE FIELD AFTER THE BATTLE. I rode over the battle-field in the evening.

Our men were burying the dead, but many still lay ghastly where they fell. The wounded had been all taken up. The Bme kind treatment was extended to the enemy's wounded whioh was given to our own. The univer sal remak which they made to me as I passed through the hospital, was, We never expected to be treated so. We have been misled.

We expected to be served like dogs should we fall into your hands. You are kinder to us than we would have been to you. DOCUMENTS FOUND. The Cincinnati Commercial's correspondent says I give you a copy of two or three of the documents found in the camp. The following was touna on a table one or tbe cabins "Col.

It seems that there was opposition in the camp to the move on tnis side oi toe river. the artillery. The Cincinnati Times' correspondent says During tbe engagement Standart's and Wetmore's Ohio batteries wore throwing shell over the beads of our own men, in the attempt to reach the ranks of the enemy. Captain Rinnoy succeeded in taking one section of his battery through the woods to within sixty yards of the enemy, and succeeded in deliver ing seven rounds upon them; every shot opening large gaps in their lines. Tbe enemy then made a charge upon these guns, but they were instantly repulsed by a portion of the JNintn Uhio.

standart's, kidney's, and wetmore's bat teries. After passing over the open fields, we ascended a high rise of ground, when, glori- ous to behold," there were the fortifioations of the enemy full in sight, and distant about three quarters of a mile. Gen. Thomas lm mediately ordered up the artilley to take po sition on the hill Our pieces were soon in position. The first shell from Standart's Battery, sighted by Lieut, uenoett, went spang" into the em brasure of the enemy.

Wetmore's Battery was soon in position, on the same eminence, and opened tbeir loud-spoken acknowlede-ments of respeot. Kinney's Battery was taken to another eminence, overlooking the encampment, and was soon brought to bear npon them. The shells were now thrown thick and fast into the enemy's camp for the space oi one nour, wnen, darkness coming on, tbe batteries were silenced for the night. wetmore's tarrott guns. At daylight on tbe morning of the 20th, tbe 10th Kentucky and the 14th Ohio were ordered forward to reoonnoiter.

The steamboat in the river was seen to be crossing from sbore to shore quite busy in her movements. The Parrott guns of Wetmore's battery were taken to the hill, from where the boat oould be seen, and opened with shot and shell npon her. After a few discharges from the guns, the steamboat was to be discovered in flames. and also large warehouse npon the opposite side of the Cumberland river. Col.

Office on the west tide of Hmeard St. Ites' building, nearly opposite the Bank. CoI Garfield. When it was announced that our late Sena- tor, J. A.

Garfield, had been commis-sioned at Col. ef the 42nd Regiment, many sneers were heard in certain quarters, and man; bitter impreoations were ottered against Gov. Dennison for appointing civilians, and particularly literary and clerical gentlemen without any military or even practical business qualifications, to such important positions in the army. Those, however, who were acquainted with the man, and knew that he had been emphatically the architect of bis own fortunes that from a poor, ignorant and uncared-for boy, by his own unaided exer- tions, he had acquired each an education SB to place him at tbe head of one of the finest Literary Institutions in Ohio; that by the power of his eloquence and the force of hie 1 logic, he had so won npon the affections of his fellow citizens as to be by them elected to the Senate of Ohio, where by his bold, straight-forward and consistent course, he had compelled the respect, even of his pouti oal enemies those who knew all this, and that in addition he possessed unbounded pat riotism, sterling and unyielding integrity, and deep-seated christian principle, were satisfied that he would be worth a dozen such "Milita- ry men" or Pointers" as would be likely to be forthcoming, if to that class alone was to be entrusted the command of our Ohio Regiments. To be a successful commander requires not merely a West Point theoretical Military edu-cation, or even a few campaigns of actual service, in a subordinate capacity, but it re quires energy, quickness of perception, and- gumption.

And all these, Col. Garfield pos- sessee in an eminent doaree, as his prompt movements and splendid achievements at Paintsrille and Prestonhurgh, fully attest. He has made "his mark," No. 1, in his mill tary career, and if opportunity is afforded him, he will make other marks still higher up on the scroll of fame, and broader and deeper into the affections of the rebels, ere the close of the war. In speaking of his "Eairle Swoop" at Pres tongurgh, the Louisville Journal, which but speaks the sentiment of the entire loyal Press of the Nation, says "The eagle swoop of this gallant officer npon Humphrey Marshall and his birds of prey, deserve? a more extended notice than has yet been accorded.

To estimate the important resnlts of this expedition, it is only necessary to consider what annoyances would have followed a check on the advance of Col. Garfield or any failure of his plans. Tt would have cost largely both in time and money to have sent reinforcements to him the population of the whole retrion would have been terrorized, while rampant Humphrey Marshall and his marauding bands would have laid waste the entire country. Col. Garfield, with the eye of a soldier, saw the necessity for a quick movement, and there fore, without waiting for the advance ot the 14th Kentucky Reeiment or rather the main portion of it, for Lieut.

Colonel Monroe with two or three companies had reached hira and regardless of the approaching reinforce ment under Colonel Cranox from Paris, he made that bold dash, which discomfited, ront ed, and dispersed the vaunted strength of the rebels, and drove them into the mountain fastnesses which skirt the Virginia border line, without tents, wagons, or provisions. All honor then to Col. Garfield and his noble officers and men. nis modest dispatch es to Gen. Buell have made no mention of the incredible hardships he overcame, and it is from other souroeB that we derive these particulars of the "eagle swoop" of the 18th Brigade.

"I was a Stranger and. He took me in." Eds. Bbaoos We're in the habit of publishing what we contribute towards the com- fort of our sons and brothers, and friends who are engaged in this war, and I think the practice well enough, too but I want to tell you of the kind of treatment our boys receive from entire strangers, upon whom they have no olaim except from their love of the com mon cause. A young man from this county a private in Eonkle's company, was taken sick in camp near Louisville, and was conveyed to the Louisville Hospital. He had been there but a few days, when a lady came in and asked him to go to her house, and she would take care of him.

He did so but as a pre vious arrangement had been made to send him to Cincinnati, he was there but a short time. (This lady's name was Hulings, wife of a lumber merchant in Louisville. Since that time Mr. Hulings went to the camp and brought home a sick brother 'of the young man, and kindly took care of him for a num. ber of weeks.) Upon his arrival in" Cincin nati he was sent to the hospital, but had not been there a week, when he was taken oot by Mr.

Charles R. Fosdick, Commission Mer chant, who took him to bis own house, and nursed him tenderly for three weeks. On Christmas morning, he found some valuable presents on his table from Mr. and Mrs. F.

When he had nearly recovered, Mr. Fob- tick got him a free pass on the railroad, and gave him five dollars ia money, and sent him on his way home rejoicing, with instructions to let him know, if he needed farther assistance. I call that disinterested patriotism, and I think that such men will be gratefully remembered by the people of Summit County. A. Front Columbus, Columbus, Jan.

27th, 1862. it Beacon Legislation drags along rather slowly. Much business is cut out, and much of it is important, but there is always class who by speeohes, and humbug resolu tions will dam un more useful matter. This class was very well taken off the other day, by a resolution of your Representative, Mr. Johnson.

Hill, of Medina, who, by motions, speeches, and Sunenme, consumes more time than any other ten members Dr. Scott, of Warren County, excepted movei that no mem ber should have leave of absence, nnless in ease of sickness. Johnson moved to amend by adding "that in the opinion of the Houbo, it would result to the interest of the Mate, if members who are constantly in the habit of oooupyiog tbe time of the House, with unnecessary motions and speeches, be excepted from the operation of the Resolution." John is surely a wag, with good sense in his waggery. If thesesverlasting speechmakers had leave of absence for an indefinite period, the Legis lature could finish its basiness by the first of March. Tour Senator, sometime go, offered a res olution that the two Houses adjourn on that day, but the Senate laid It on the table.

On Fridty bat, he called it np, but the Senate refused by the close vote of 15 to 16. The Senator called fot the Ayes and Nays, that very man should show his hand on the Record. This created a little natter, and the mult showed that many who had previously Voted against it, dare not have their votes appear that way on the record. Fink, of Perry County, a rabid Jewett Democrat, some days ago offered a set of political resolutions, that the war was carried on, not for conquest, but for the preservation of the Union, and when this object was ao-oomBlisaedfc tbe war should ceiee.

Colonel Garfield has 35 prisoners, 15 horses, ana quite a quantity of rebel stores. When the battle was at its height, and the quick volleys from the rebel musketry told that hope was against hope for our brave bove. no sight was ever more cheering, than that which gree ed the eyes of the brave Colonel, as be turned and saw the unfurled banner received only a few weeks since from the hands of Governor Dennison, waviDg at the head of Col. Sheldon's reinforcing column. At the thoui of victory that went ont above the roar or battle for comrades, country and the Union, as the reinforcements came in sight, the rebels fled.

The Battle near Somerset. A private letter, allowed to be ablished In the Cincinnati Commercial says of the battle near Somerset as follows: Somerset. Jan. 20, 1862, Deis Brothib: Citizens and Soldiers are straff-Rlin(( in, loaded with trophies of tho baltle. The vlotory was decisive.

Zollicoffer was beautifully intrenohed- and bad excellent winter quarters. It la said General Crittenden le taken, too. Zolliooffer Is surely dead. Our bullets were sent with unerring aim many rebels shot in the forehead, breast, and stomach. I have a small piece of Zollicofier's under-shirt, and a daguerreotype of a HeceBsion lady, taken with a lot of other plunder whioh had belonged to Captain Wilt and Lieutenant Connelly, of a Tennessee regiment.

The dead were being buried by oar men-20 to 26 In a pit. Their artllleryappeared to be sadly deficient. Our artillery told every time, I learn one of their steamboats, whioh was oarrying them aoross the river, was shot Into and fired by our artillery, destroying all in it in toto. The Union poop I here flooked to the battle field in droves, and are jubilant at the result. After crossing the river the rebels did not stop but ran like devila.

The rebels tried their old dodge w.Un.is uy, guupjai, Buuiuuer, raisea, crying friends, but this did not go; they could not fool our boys. The rebel soldiers were not generally clothed in uniform, but in oitizen'a clothes. Their weapons were mixed squirrel rifles, Ao.

Cinciwhati, Jan. 24. This morning's papers contain full aocounts of the battle of Mill Spring. It was a fair open battle. The rebels fought well, and were overoome only by the superior fighting on our aide.

According to rebel aocounts their force consisted of ten regiments of infantry, three batteries, and aome cavalry altogether about 10.000 men. They fougl.t In bushwaeking style from-ravlnes, and behind bushes and rocks. The brunt of the battle devolved on the 4th Kentucky, 2d Minnesota, 9th Ohio, and 10th Indiana. For nearly three hours the roar of muskeiry was kept up. Shortly after 11 o'clock Colonel Hdsktns anooeeded in flunking the enemy on the extreme right, when the 9th Ohio, and 2d Minnesota, charged with the bayonet, with triumphant ells, which broke the rebel ranks, and the route began.

They fled pell mell to their amp, strewing the road with muskets, blankets, overcoats, knapsacks, and abandoning two guns and caissons. ZollicorTer was shot through the heart, at the head of his staff, by Col. Pry, of the 4th Kentucky. It appears that ZollicofTer lost hia way In tbe bushes, and suddenly emerged before Colonel Fry, who was accompanied by some staff officers. The two parties mistook each other for friends, and approached within a few yards of each other, when, finding their mistake, both halted and prepared for a hand to hand conflict.

One of ZolJleoffer'B Aide shot at Col. Fry, but only brought his horse down The Federal Colonel immediately drew his six-shooter and brought Zolli coffer from his saddle the first fire. The rebel staff deserted their enters body, whioh was taken to Somerset the day after the battle. An Knst Tennesseean, writing to the Commercial, says all the oredit and honor of this battle is due to the 10th Indlanna. 9th Ohio.

4th Kentucky, and 2nd Minnesota, for they did all tbe fighting single handed with the exception of what support they received irom the artillery. They all fought nobly and never wavered from the fixed deteimluation to train the victory. The combatants were so near each other at one time that tho powder burned their faces in the discharge of their pieces.

27, The Tribnr e'a despatch says A proposition will aoon be offered in the Senate to Impose tax of 10 per eevt npon the pay of officers from a major general'down to a private. The army prefers a tax to a reduction of pay, and large numbers have petitioned for it. From this source Government would reoeive a revenue of about $25, 000,000. The petition from the officers state that tbey prefer a tax of 10 or 12 per cent to the reduction proposed. Senator Sherman and many senators and members approve the idea, and will support it.
