EiMTfMts Appeal A popular error is prevalent that the second day of the battle of Sliiloh resulted virtually in dimming the great accomplishment of the day before. Never was an illusion so utterly devoid of a decent pretext for its existence.

Groat as- were the achievements of Sunday's fight, tlie mult of Monday's action pales not the least in contrast with tie glory of that of the preceding day. Our gallant army had marched from Corinth with but four days' rations, signifying a mission to that extent -no more. The march, going and returning, it was concluded would occupy three days, leaving one day to be devoted fl the object, of surprising a formidable enemy and of breaking up by the vigor and unexpected character of our onset his great plans for pushing his forces still further Hito our center, by consolidating two formidable corps of his army and marching the in, by force of their jjpeHily superior numbers, to whatever point he might please. It was a strategic move npon the plan of Napoleon, who, when unable at an important moment to whip a consolidated enemy, took it in detail and vanquished it before a juncture of its several divisions could be effected If oar military leaders had postponed the attack another day, a conjunction of the forces of Buell and Grant would have been effected, and au army greater than ever assembled upon this continent wonld have compe-wd with our less numerical force for the honors of the dav. As it was on Sunday, we took the army of Grant by surprise, drove him from his encampments, and comnletelv routiner hhn, forced him to take refuge under the cover of the guns of bis iron-clad boats.

Our army had then iougtit twelve hours, and retired to ktHmnc, a great portion of the night exposed to the most merciless rain that ever left. During the night the juncture of Buell's foices with the remainder of Grant's effected, and all of the preparations were made for a recovery of their lost ground of the dav before, and for tlie accomplishment of the object for which the junction was contemplated. It was not seriously contemplated that we would be able with our fatigued troops to compete to a point of expelling frcta our soil so formidable a competitor. On the contrary, the original purpose of the expedition, a retirement in-order after what we had achieved the dsy before, wag never abandoned, and it was well known on Monday morning that it was intended on that day to be consummated. It would not have doue, in their view of the case, to have abruptly retreated, and thus to have wiped out the glory of the previous day's achievement Without a reinforcement to the extent even of a single regiment, in our then conditionJt would have been folly to have continued in tlft aggressive.

Therefore, the remainder of our gallant army was drawn up battle line to await the coming of the big onemy and icive him fight while preparations were being mad for oar retirement, and to cripple hhn as much more as we could before temporarily parting with him. He came in overwhelming numbers, everywhere forcing his fresh a ramus to regain his previous days' The impetuosity of his onsets but excited the dauntless chivalry of our troops. At times, almost enjUtuUd by the fire ot the enemy, they followed resistless charge with resistless charge until, eventually, be himself, overcome by the tremendous shocks of the opposing columns, was glad to abandon the contest of Monday, in which he had promised so much for himself. It may be asked, as it is asked by those vho look at tne gloomy Sloe oi me picture, nun are ws- poe to appreciate Jf eoerai ana appreciate confederate triumphs, if this view of Monday's battle be historically correct, why was it sot followed no bv an onward movement instead ot the retirement of the main portion of our forces 1 The superior forces of the enemy gave them tlie capacity to maintain reserves which woald have been brought into action on Tuesday, while all of our forces then present, having been in both days' action, would hav been physically incompetent for a thud day's endurance. sides, an onward movement woura nave ui ougm us under fire of the enemy's gunboats, which he artfully placed, in anticipation of any bad result, to prevent us driving his men any further than to refuge under their tire, and to prevent us from intruding upon the safety which the river afforded him.

The results of the entire battle are as follows We captured ovct. four thousand prisoners, eighty-six: pieces of artillery, mostly ritied, caissons and limbers complete, with splendid bosses attached, and a quantity of transportation wagons and mules, innumerable small arms, ammunition sufficient for another battle, medicines to supply our medical department for a long time, and blankets, and clothes for our soldiers, as weU as commissaries and quartermasters' stores.

Klftate'ff Miii(pi KegimeHl. On Sunday morning early, this gauaut regiment, led by ite worthy colonel (A. K. Btythe), attacked the enemy. They first stormed battery at the point of the bayonet and other sharp arms and eaptured it but on examination, it proved two batteries instead of one.

These batteries were making great havoc in our ranks with canister, grape and Mink balls; but our troops, nothing daunted, moved steadily on, and finally, after hard lighting, succeded. in taking all. Col. Ittythe and Lieu tenant-Col. Jlerron fell in the early part of the action.

We captured the enemy's encampment, and the men slept the toilewing sight in their tents. Our loss on Sunday was, in Killed and wounded, about one hundred and fifty men. Maj.

heretofore referred. The Gazette says We very much doubt whether the opera house, since it was opened to the public, ever contained a larger or mora refined assemblage ef our citizens than on last evening, on the occasion of the -welcome to our city of the illustrious Tennessee patriot. Parson Brownlow. Before the doors were opened, the crowd had commenced to gather on Fourth street, and before half-past 7 p'clock not a vacant seat was to be found in the house, and the aisles and every available spot occupied. Many, we learn, were unable to obtain even standing-room, and left the house.

The turnout, considering that the admission fee was fifty cents, must have been very gratifying to the parson. After being introduced to the audience, Mr. B. made a characteristic speech, of which the following report is given Ladik and Gbxtlgmkx I appear beforo you to-night in accordance with an arrangement made by a large committee ol intelligent ana in fluential citizens of your town, and I am not here for the purpose of making an effort, or with any wkh to tascinate or charm you. I appear here simply to relate a few facts, and to give you the localities and names of persons in the South who have suffered tl manner of persecutions lor no other reason than that they were Union men.

I have met since I have been in your city not a few intelligent persons who have inquired, is it true that they hang and shoot men for being Uuiorustb They did not seem as though they could realize it. In what I may say to night I shall deal in nothing but facts, nothing but I knew of personally and can substantiate it the question is raistVL I have seen the day when I was a young man, and I admit ladies, that that was some time ago, for I have a wife who is not likely to die soon, laughter, and I have keen the day when I could make myself heard at any ordiimry distance, when for four or five hours I have been beard on a stretch in the open air, but those days have gone by. You will bear with me for a few moments if I shall make a few remarks, by way ot preface, which personal to myself. Circumstances have connected my name with the rebellion in the South. I am a native of the Old Dominion, born and raised in the State of Virginia.

Ladies and gentlemen, you have a man now before you who is an acknowledged descendant of one the second families of Virginia. Laughter and cheers My parents before me on both sides were Virginians, and on both sides they were slaveholders, as most of the citizens were, aud though I have bden branded at the South, since the breaking out of this rebellion, with being an anti-slavery man and a descendant of tones, I take great pleasure and pride in announcing that ray lather was a volunteer in the revolution under Old Hickory, and I have had uncles who died at Norfolk aud New Orleans, in the cause ot the Union. On my mother's side I had relatives who bavc lost their lives in defending the United States not the swamps of Louisiana and Mississippi, but every particular State. I may as well make a remark here on politics. I am not here to revive old party prejudices.

In Tennessee, thank God, we have merged all party questions into one, and that is one of the Union; 'and in all time to come, although I have been Whig, I will not vote for any man, I care not what be bis politics, who is not a Union mn. I will see all such men, when gravitation tarns the other way, even hell ward before I would vote for them. I'have foueht Andrew Johnson of Tennessee. systematically, irsevorinely, for the last twenty hve years. lie has scored me on every stump in Tennessee.

Honors are easy 'now. I have now joined hands with him, and will fight for Dim a gat not the common toe. I have always been a Union man. I oom meuced my political career in 1323, and I remark, ladies, that 1 am not a young man, and confess tne lact, tor never expect to be a widower. I JjRugnter.

Although I opposed Uia llicKory ana fought for Adams, 1 would have prayed that be might have been raised up during the Feign of James Buchanan, that he might have sank Sooth Carolina in some sea like the Dead sen, where it will ultimately go. I next supported Henry Clay.

I next Taylor, Mid then Filimore and Donetson. I supported the BeU and Ev erett ticket. The tail ef the ticket js doing well in Massachusetts, and 'is standing erect. Laughter. The ratter end will do to to yet, hut as to the frontispiece, all I cau star is, I'ity Oce word on the subject of slavery.

I liave no sentiments in the South that hwe not here, and no sentiments here that I do not express at the South. If the issue shall be made hy tiw South of slavery and no Union, or Union and no slavery, I am for the Union. I have told' them so at home on the stumn time and aaraia. I will always stand by the Union, unless the question should be the Federal Union or the Gnristww religion then, and in 00 other case, am I against tne union. About twelve months ago a stream of secession tire, red and angry and almost as hot as hell, came along from the South through Kfpx-ville.

Tlieu it was that the rebel soldiers, mafe mad by bad whisky, visited the houses of Union men in Knoxville, and robbed tbein of everything, insulted and abused the inmates, and my humble dwelling was honored, if hmor it by wese soicuers. At the same time I was reading in my exchanges from Mobile and Charleston, that thev had been compelled to send the flower of the South to deleud the border States I said my wife, if these soldiers be the fl wer of the South God deliver us from the rabble. They became more and more insuhiug, until in May they commenced shooting down and hanging the Union men. One man named Douglas raised a pole and run up the stars and stripes in front of his dwelling, and he was shot down for this. I was then in the street, and on remonstrating with uiem a proposiuen was mttue 10 snoot me uowu.

The work of murder and slaughter went on. and they became so overbearing that a number of us nail to nee to tne mountains. I cannot boast of my courage, but I believe I was never accused of personal cowardice. They took my building to repair old muskets, which the thief Floyd stole from the govern ment. Alter taking possession ot my office, I was out of employment.

One regiment located in the town had decided to tear dowu my dwell ing, aud the plans were all ready. Uen Zolli-eoder was informed of the facts, and issued orders forbidding any of his boldivrs to so out side their hues. He also sent a detachmeufof two hundred men to surround and protect my bouse. Many saw ite liaa uone an act worthy of irreat credit, but 1 ueiieve ue tint no uiote than his duty. I knew him for twenty-five years, aud Ite was.ahigh toned, houest aud brave man.

lie never stooped to anything low, and the only mean thing that he ever did, that I am aware of, was to fight in such a cause as that in which the South is now engaged. My family urged me to leave home, with tears and entreaties, and to gratify my wife and children, I did so. About that time there was au election for President and Vice-President. The ticket only got votes in a State that lias given 150,000 votes. In East Tennessee the Union sheriffs refused to open the polls.

Judge Swau, the member of the Confederate Congress from the Knoxville district, had but 700 votes, while the same dibtrict has given Horace May-nard 12,000 votes. After Johnson and Maynard left I was the only laader left iu Knoxville, although only a aeeoud or third rate one at that. Momiting an old iron gray horse one day and with a few friends, we, at the Secessionists say when beaten by the Union army, retired I retired, gentlemen. Laughter We made up a company of twelve persons, and retirrd into the Smoky Mountains, which divides Tennessee from North Carolina, and iu the nmoth of November we lay out twelve or fifteen nights. We liad taken some bread aud meat, and when our provisions gave-out we killed a black bear, some deer and turkeys.

We bad cousins who came to us every few days and informed us as to what was going on. We learned that the command log officer had detailed four squads of cavalry, and weir public instruction were not to take us but to sheot us on sight. In some mysterious -way, one Saturday nurbt about 1 1 o'clock, five bridges ou the main nne of rmkoad, some mites apart, were all burned down, aad were iu as hoi by dayfig ht next This Ht the vry devil in the SeeeMea- itts, although he had been in their midst all the whilo. The Legislature of Tennessee passed a law renuiriiw the officer to visit all the houses of Union men and take from them their knives, pistols and guus, fearing that our people wore about rising. I could give the names of many Union nwn iu ICnoxville who were shot down for no other offense than opposing Jeff.

From Virsiniu. Richmond, April 13 We have no news here except of an occasional skirmish on the Peninsula, where a battle is believed to be imminent. lUoi-c Uridso KurHerx. Atlanta, April 12. An engine and three cars on the Western Atlantic railroad were stolen by some unknown parties yesterday.

The wires were also cut after they were taken. Another dispatch says that eight bridge burn. en, the same who stole the engine and train, have been caught They were sent by the Federals, from Shelbyvillo, to burn our bridges, aud thereby prevent reinforcements reaching our army in Tennessee. THE FEDERAL CO.M'.ltES!. Washington.

April 1. House. Mr. Val-landigham, of Ohio, asked the unanimous consent of the House to make a statement relative to the Democratic conference held last week. Mr Washburn, of Illinois, and others, on the Republican side, objected.

Tlie House then went into committee on the tax bill. An amendment was adopted that cast iron -used for bridges and buildinirs, or oilier perma nent structures, shall be taxed one dollar per ton, 1 1 1 -piuwueu iimi. uuu useu lor similar purposes shall pay no specific duty additional to what is already required by this act. An amendment was also adopted, tlmt machine belting of all kinds for conveying water shall be charged three per cent ad valorem. The allowances and drawback section was amended so as to read as follows From and after the date upon which this act takes place, there shall be an allowance or drawback 011 articles manufactured, on which auy internal duty or tax shall have been paid, equal in amount to the tax paid thereon, aud 110 more, when exported the evidence that any such duty or tax has Been paid to be furnished to the satisfaction of the commissioner of internal revenue by such person or persons as shall claim the allowance or drawback, aud tlie amount shall be ascertained under such regulations as shall, from time to time, be procured by the commissioners "undirthe direction of the secretary of the treasury, aod the same shall be paid by the warrant of the secretary of the treasmy, on tlie treasury of the United States, out of auy money arising from the internal duty not otherwise appropriated, provided that no allowance or drawback shall be made or had for any amount, claimed or due, of leys than twenty dollars.

All the original sections having been acted upou, a new one was added, provided tlie per sons and penalties for fraudulent practices in regard to drawbacks. I ho amendment providing tor a tax ot two dollars per head 011 slaves, was rejected 17 to C3. The bill to establish a branch mint at Denver was passed. Mr. Blair, ot Missouri, ottered a new section, that, any persou who shall claim the service or labor for lite, of auy person held to service or labor under th-j law of any State, shall pay on the service or labor of such person, the sum of two dollars.

He argued that some sections have scarcely anything else on which a tax can be imposed. Mr. Mickliffe expressed his surprise that this proposition having seme time ago been rejected, should again be Kentucky will pay several hundred thousand dollars, hot if this amendment be adopted, three hundred thousand dollars more will be required of that State. Such a tax would be unjust and unequitable, aud was unconstitutional. Mr.

Mai lory, in opposing the amendment, characterized it as burdensome, oppressive and unjust, because it was intended to apply only to particular sections. Mr. limeliam opposed the amendment on con stitutional grounds, arguing that taxes must apportioned among the people according 10 the ratio ot representation, anu wnen apportioned, collected without respect to particular persons but on taxable wealth this is just aud equitable. Mr. Olin showed that, in some States, almost entire profits fron agriculture were invested in negroes.

Mr. Arnold sustained tlie amendment He could not see why this peculiar interest should have an ad vantage over the agricultural interests of the West Mr. Aloozies opposed tlie proposition, and offered an amendment that every persou owning a horse shall, in coi sideration of the service thereof, pay one dollar. Air. Blair raised the question that this was not in order, which opposition the chairman sustained, remarking that it could be in order only as a new section.

Air. Roscoo. Conklin, of New York, said if this amcudment should be defeated, it woukl be by Ute union of the extreme sentiments of the House. It was said by the friends of the iustitution that such a tax would be grossly unjust, and by par excellence the enemies ot slavery tuat tne imposition of such a tax would admit property iu man. lie denied the soundness ot both propo sitions Mr.

Blair, of Missouri, briefly answered the objections to his proposition, saying this was not it capitation tax, but merely a tax ou tlie jiervice ol the persons narnou. Alter further proceedings tlie question was taken on Mr. Blair's umendmeut, which was re- lected. 47 to C2. The committee rose, when Mr.

Colfax, of In diana, after occupying the chair during three weeks, while the bill was under consideration reported the same with amendments to the House. They were ordered to be printed aud the further consideration ot tuem postponed tut The House want into committee of the whole ou the state of the Union, Air. Webster iii the chair. On motion of Mr. Stevens, of Pennsylvania, 'the bill to establish a branch mint at Denver, Colorado Territory, was taken np.

Tkt debate was limited to five minute speeches. Mr. VallandiKuam said an allusion had been made in the Senate recently to a Democratic con ference heldllast week, as to what took place there in, lie liad no ngtit to speatc, out tne injunction of secrocy did not apply to the call, which was in these words: Democratic conference. We. the undersigned members of the Demo cratic party of the United States, determined to adhere to its ancient principles, aad to maintain its orMimtauou unbroken under au circuui stances, as the party best uble to maintain the Constitution, aud to restore the old Union of the States, do hereby unite this call for a confer ence of those who may sigu the some, approving the obiects indicated.

This call was signed by some thirty-five members of the Senate aud House of -Representatives. Air. Stephens a3ked who signed it. Mr. Vallaudighain continued All of them are able to read and write.

No one made his mark." If this bid not refer to a political orzani zutiou, he was not capable ot understanding lancruarre. The movement thus commenced would tro on, and it was the determma'ion of some that it should be completed. Beyond this be was not able to speak, ills name was appended to the call. Tlie committee rose, 'aud the bill for tlto brand mint at Denver missed. The House then weut into committee, when Air.

iieanieu expressed, njs views in tavor of es- uiuiiHiuug territorial governments in the so- called Confederate States. The co initteo rose, and the House adiourued 1111 Aionuay. isenale. Air. Sherman, of Ohio, presented a petition of citizens of Ohio iu favor of a general Danttrupi law.

Air. Harris, of New York, presented petitions that Democratic papers be allowed the same privilege in the mails as Republican aud abolition papers. Air. Howard, of Alichisran. nresented petitions of citizeus of Alichigau, in favor of general bankrupt act Also, a petition that the proposed tax on lager beer bo reduced.

Mr. Hale, of New Hampshire, gave notice of a new rule of tho Senate, which he proposed to offer, as follows THat, during the present rebellion, tire Senate may, liy majority vote, fix the titrte when debate oa any subject shall be terminated, and the Senate shall then lake a vote ou tho question, without further debate. Air. AIcDougal, ot Uaiifornta, troin the special uommitteo, reported a bill to aid in the construction of a railroad uud telegraph lino to the teific. Tho Senate then proceeded to the considera tion 'of business connected with the District e-f Columbia.

or Itebcl in WnnhiuffiH. Within a few days past, for some reason not yet discovered, whether trs ra laxity pf discipline oh the part of the provost marshal, or from some information derived from rebel sources of a new bold roup d'etiU to be made by the rebels, tlie rebel symaathisers here have been unusually bold. Aleetlugs have been held, and orowds pf Baltimore rebels, whose visits to Washington have been rare of late, participate in them. Rebel songs are sung with great glee, ani it is alleged that, under the influence of Syrens, even Union army officers have been induced to join in the chorus. It may be the last dying song of the swau, or the promise of renewed efforts to cherish the rebellion.

The leniency of the government toward this class of people has not been appreciated by them. When our troops occupied Leeeburg, eight rebel flags of the new pattern were found. It imM been ascertained that they were made in this city and forwarded to Leesbnrg. A'. 1'.

Herald. Vnnilf Fair' Account ot Aowlwru, ilic Unltle of At a moment of indecision, when it required hut another volley to repulse the Federals from before a battery on the right, or vigorous example to encourage them to charge and take the battery, an officer of hisrh position and un daunted bravery resolved to sacrifice himself, if necessary, in-order to set the soldiers an exam ple. He seized the opportunity when a heavy shell was about -to btMired from a mortar of one of the Rhode Island batteries, and seated himself astride ot the muzzle These large shells move very slowly. As the ponderous projectile exuded from the enormous engine, tho officer clasped his knees around it, and with his sword iu one hand and revolver in the other, sailed, tnumpliMit aud transfigured, over into the midst of theenemy, cheering and swearing alternately. The effect was magieal.

Tlie sltell struck anong a cvalry company. The gallant officer assailed a hundred foes, and in a moment had surrounded himself with such a barricade of dead hnvses and riders that the explosion of the missile harme-J him not. Tlie troops who witnessed this feat were at once ablaze with enthusiasm. They charged like devils, and captured the rebel works at the point of death. The officer who did this should be rewarded by a nation's gratitude.

Ue deserves all praise and glory, and ought to receive the highest petition iu the gift ot the American people. Personal modesty alone prevents me from mentioning bis name. One of my staff-officers, a young lieutenant of light quadroons, was led by his impetuosity into the enemy's and found himelf surrounded by a regiment of Mississippi rip-snorters. I immediately rode forward, under a perfect storm of shot and shell, and raising myself in my stirrups, made faces at the foe. Terrified they dipped theii arms and fled.

The lieutenant aud I remained uninjured, laden with scalps and trophies. I captured several handsome fligs. One is a large silk banner, with the following characteristic inscription, in white letters, ou a white greund "Sthikb for Southern Wkiuhts Truth." Another, which I took with my own hands after wringing the color-sergsant's neck, is the guidon ot a company called Uol. Ansel's baarp shooters. It bears this inscription, which has a air appels.

socsd is the cores." Cause is doubtless the word intended hut I observe that southern orthography is pe cunar. One troop of rebel horse is reported to have carried a black color, but I think tins 13 au error. At least, I saw but one cavalry regiment, and they were horse ot anottter color. After the battle. I took up my quarters in farmhouse oa the bank of the Neuse, whence I now write.

What I need, is rest and re creation. There ore three pretty girk I am iu no hurry to move before the first of Alay. I have sent on my army, however, toward Richmond. Later, llichmond is ours Still Later Richmond is not yet ours, but it will be, as soon as we take it. The father and brothers of the three pretty girls nave come home, hey are soldiers.

Mary in Pleasants county, that a most diabolical attempt was made, on Satur day aitersoon last, to assassinate Sheriff James M. Hanloo, of that county, aud Mr. Johnson, a collector ot assessments, appointed by Gov. Pierpont. Mr.

Hanlon aud Mr Johnson have oeen numg over i'leasaats eounty tor some three weeks, and have met with many annoyances from Secessionists who object to paying taxes into what they call the bogus Wheeling government. They left St. Mary's oa Saturday afternoon, to go to another part ef the county, and when within five or six miles of St. Mary's, and near Pettecoat Ripple, they were fired apon trom a mil Dy two or more concealed assassins. One ball took etfeet in Air.

Han Ion's breast, near tlie left nipple, and passed entirely through his body. Another whizzed by Mr. Johnson's ear so closely that he hat not been able to hear distinctly since. The horses commenced running at tne last tire, but had not run more than htty yards when two more shots were fired, without doing further damage. Johnson assisted Hanlon from his horse, and helped him into the nearest house, where he now lies in a very dangerous condition.

Johnson then summoned a number of men. and went in search, of the assassins, whom he succeeded in tracing a considerable distance, bat finally tost the track. The neighborhood in which these men were attacked is inhabited entirely by Secessionists, and it is the opinion of Mr. Johnon that the assassins were rebels who oppose the Wheeling gevoru-ment, and who are waging a war upon its officers. Several" sheriffs have recently been elected in PWanteeomity.

but owinsr to the violence and danger nwesgHry to be incurred in collecting taies and the knowing scarcity of money, all failed to qualify. Air.

2400 strong, were at Albuquerque, with 30 pieces of artillery, abett half way between here and Fort Craig. Otheraecounts say that the rebel colonels Steele aad Baylor, with 1500 Texani are advancing on the fort The Texaos hold Santa Fe, where tbey have organised a provisional government with General Pel ham as governor. If a forward movement can be made without jeoparding the depot, it will be done, and an effort be made to relieve Cel. Canby, and then reclaim Santa Fe and Albn-qaerqtte. Colonel Slough, as next ranking ofi-'r, is in command of the deportment, while Col Cuuhy is penned up iu Fort Craig.
