8ATU8DA1C 7 THAYER, J. Bf. Editor. Fkom the Yaioo Pass. From a gentleman who has just returned from the Yazoo Pass, we learn that the work of clearing out a channel by that route into the Coldwater and the Yazoo river via the Talahatchee was completed some two weeks ago, and vessels had proceed de through into the Coldwater, on a re-connoissance.

On this expedition a portion of the First Indiana cavalry and a company of Illinois cavalry had a shr-rp skirmish with the rebels, whom they ronted handsomely, killing six wounding five who fell into our hands, and taking some twelve others prisoners. This gentleman has no doubt that ere this, the railroad from Jackson to Yicks-burg has been severed, and communications with the interior cut off. may expect exciting news from that region any hour. Los3 of toe Atalanta. We me Capt Tom Bowlus, late of the Atalanta, and from him learned some particulars of the loss of that ill fated steamer.

The Atalanta was descending the Cumberland, light, and about 11 o'clock at night As she was attempting to pass the bridge at Clarksville she took a sheer on the Pilot and struck one of the piers, splitting her stem back to her capstan. She then swung round, striking another pier and staving in her hull. Her headway motion sent her intg shore and the crew all escaped by the yawl and by swimming to trees, from which they were rescued by smal boats. Her cabin floated off and was landed at Smithland. The machinery will probably be recovered when the water falls.

EStF We give np considerable space this morning to the "Conscript Law." Every body ought to read it. It is something in which all have an interest We esfJlv commend it to the careful perusal of our Butternut- nic iia larly those sections of the law relative to encouraging desertious and harboring or employing deserters. They are somewhat stringent, and their violation may bring the violator to jrrief. We made a predictiou last week, without makin? any pretensions to thn gift of prophecy, that the decline in gold would be as precipitate as the late rise. Immediately- nfYorwarrU nrJA vanced again a cent or two.

This, as we said, was merely an expir-ing effort on the part of holders, in order to sell out Down, down it goes, having fluctuated to 45 cents yesterday, closing finally at 52, an aggregate decline of 22 cents since the passage of Mr. Chase's Financial scheme.

VERITAS. Lrlier Trom den. Kosecrans to tfcfe Indiana Legislature. lu response to resolutions of'tsa'nks from the Indiana Rosecrans has written the -following let ter: Headquarters LVpH of '-Orfmberland, Murlrwsboro, TetifL, Feb. 18.

GentlemUx: In tire name of the Ofli-cers and- Soldiers of the Army of the Cumberland, I thank you for the resolutions of congratulation, approval and condolence you have sent us on accouet of the Battle of Stone River. At the call of constitutional liberty, the brave aud true men of the West laid aside peaceful pursuits, left tfceir homes and sought to qualify tlrewiselves to fight for a Government that had cost the blood and treasures of two great wars and eighty years of time, to establish. For twenty weary months this Army has stood guard to keep the Confederate Wolf from your doors. They know what hunger, cold, weary marches, and painful watchings it has cost to preserve our homes from invasion, and our friends and neighbors from conscription; it is therefore doubly a pleasure to hear these free and cheering words now from home. The unscrupulous despots in our front call us Lincoln hirelings," and we hear that this calumny has lately been repeated at home, by some of the meu whose property and persons have been kept safe by our toil and blood, from the ruthless hands of Kirby Smith, Bragg and Morgan.

"Presuming on our absence, these men talk as if we were not citizens, and speak mockingly of our patriotism. They stab in the back the most generous, true-hearted men of the country, while standing guard in frout of their doors, and they prolong the war by encouraging the rebels to hope for divided counsels at our homes. I speak the conviction of the officers and men of this army, when I say that we fight to secure equal rights to all, under the Constitution and the Laws we fight in defence of our homes and hearths, sure to be invaded, if the rebel despots, who began the war can get the power. But we long for peace we pray for peace; and we fight for peace not for a dishonorable peace not for a hollow truce. We have once been deceived by the cry of "No coercion," and of "State rights," and have seen how the rebel leaders practice, in East Tennessee, Missouri, Vestern Virginia and Kentucky.

We have met the masses of the South, and are witnesses of the falsehood, calumny and perfidy by which they have been led to wage war against us. We have seen flags of truce violated; hospitals, ambulances and boats bearing flags, fired upon; and our 6ick and wounded stripped of their blankets and robbed of their food and medicines; we have been approached in battle by rebels wearing our uniforms and carrying our colors. After witnessing the wholesale slander of us, their perfidy and treachery towards the masses of their own people, and the unfair and dishonorable means to which they resort to gain an advan-lae, we have been forced to the im-movame i conviction, that the leaders of this rebellion treacherous, unscrupulous and cruel their leaders never will nor can be peaceaoie, or true Ineuds and neiVhJ oors. Ana mat, as Davis nas said they only want the power, not the will to invade and subjugate us. We should rejoice to see the power of tnese leaders tail by the band of their own people, whom they oppress: that people for whose rights we fight, in com mon with our own; but unless it does thus fall, we must destroy it, or it will destroy our Nation, and our children win pass unaer me yose oi a military despotism raised on tne sable foundation or negro slavery, and the more degrad ing servitude of the poor whites," such as now overshadows the bouth.

I sa our children will pass under the yoke, for that could only happen after the brave and true men of the country her ciuzen-soiuiers snail nave perished; or, deserted by the wretches whose homes they have hitherto protected, heart-bro ken and despairing, shall quit the field and give to slavery anj to its domination all those who love money more than honor, and peace more than freedom, Ihe issue is a plain one. we who battle for national existence are not to be sustained by our own friends at home the sooner we know the We do not wish to be deceived as to o-ir po sition, uor lau victims to the treachery, cowardice, or selfishness of those whom we have loved and trusted.

Cairo, March 5. A special to the Cincinnati Gaxelle says: The steamer Memphis has just arrived, bringing Memphis papers of the 4th. The news is not of paiticular importance. Great numbers of sick and disabled soldiers were coining up from the army at Lake Providence. The Sunshine and Kenton had arrived at Memphis on the 3d.

At Young's Point reports were circulated that the Indianola had been distinctly Been, by means of a field-glass, lying alongside the Queen of the West, under the guns at Trenton. Others believe the report of the man who escaped when the boat was captured, the Indianola sank; but the majority seem to think at Gen. Grant's headqusrters that the gunboat was not materially injured. The Bulletin has advices from Vicks-burg to Sunday morning. Some inaccuracies occurred the first statement of the capture of the Indianola.

It appears the Indianola was placed in a bad position, and was badly managed by the pilot. The Queen of the West, Webb and Music were pitted against her. The Webb had heavy guns, and used them with effect The rams butted against her, but she could not hurt them. When the boats came alongside with the Confederates, instead of giving them a shower of hot water, the crew and officers ran aboard the Confederate rams. It was then the informant made his escape.

His impression was, when he left, that the Indianola was disabled. The Wyoming, one of the boats forming the expedition to the Yazoo Pass, returned to Helena with dispatches. The expedition was going along satisfactorily except the Emma, which, being of heavy draught, grounded in the Pass. The river is reported rapidly falling below, from the breaking of the levees. The country is much overflowed.

Gen. Grant has ordered all resigned officers and discharged soldiers to leave the Department as soon as examined. The "cotton is discovered in many of them. It is rumored at Youmr's Pu 3feTion of Old John Brown was arrested at Vicksburg, last week, and hung. Most of the hotels at Memphis will be taken for hospital uses.

RIVER NEWS. The river is raising slowly here, and the heavy rain of Thursday night will tend to swell it still more, and the lowering clouds and moist weather indicates an increased rise. The boats that passed down yesterday were the Jacob Strader, and Ben. Franklin. The following passed np: The Collier, Kellogg, and Tycoon.

The Hyatt arrived yesterday from the Cumberland river, and the Packard from the Wabash. There will be a fine array of favorite boats here to-day. That great favorite of shippers and passengers, the Charley Bowen, Captain Ben. Howard, Master, aud Bruce Hunter, in the office, will leave promptly at two o'clock for Cairo and all points. Apply early for State Rooms.

The handsome and fleet Armada, under command of those popular and accommodating officers, Capt Josh. V. Throop, and Gus. Dusouchet, Clerk, will also leave this afternoon for Paducah aad Cairo. Her appointments are admirable.

Give her a bouncing trip. Last but by no means the least, the magnificent Big Grey veteran" officers," and rare accommodations, will be the popular packet for Henderson and Louisville to-night. Capt Jim. Lusk is especially attentive to pas sengers. The General White left for Green river yesterday.

Ihe Louisville and Henderson Mail Company have contracted for a splendid new passenger steamer for the Henderson trade, the hull of which will be built by Messrs. I). J. Howard, the engines by Mr. H.

MeClaren. The new boat will be an improvement upon the General Buell, and will cost about $00,000. UAILKOAU RECEIPTS, Evansville, March 6. 135 sacks wheat Igleheart Bros l.u sacks Hour.
