mformiiir me that General piiee had rapidry t'lleti back from Sprinfirkl ktdtutta, siipnor tofc ot imowmy, imvm eiWrtetvorine; to torm jumtioB with tlie division Gn4t. McC ttlloch in rSoatoa BMHHtaum. For fawM whieh to ttas imuerativti. reeolved to iro in person and take cngiamad oi the combined toreea ot fiK and JacCullocu. 1 raaclieid their headquarterg ou the 3d of March, acd being Mttiefied that the enemy, tvho tutd halted ou Susrar creek, fifty-five inUos distant, was only awaiting large reinforcements before be would advance.

I resolved to attack him at tmm. Accordingly 1 sent tor Gen. Pike to toin me with the forcva under his command, and ou the morning of the 4th of March, moved with the dmeioua ot i'nee and aicUuimmmi iy way oi FajrettTille aud Bentonville, to attack: tbe ene rav'g main camp Snrr creek. The whole force under my command was about 16,000. Oh the 6th we left Kim Spring for Benton-vilie, and from prieoners captured hy our scout-itur paniec on the 5th, 1 became convinced that up to that time bo suspicion was entertained of onr advance, and tnai mere were smwtp nopee of our efmctrnr a complete surprise, and attack- ins; the, enemy before the large detachments en- 1, camped at various points in the snrroHttding Mtountrv coald reioin rue mam ooay.

j. merwore I it, it 11 enacavOTpa to reacn renionviiie, ii ui taut, by a rapid march but tbe troops moved very slowkjHfhat it was 11 A. m. before the head of the hjadinpr division (Price's) reached the villaee, and wu naa me momncanuu mx Sgel's divifion, 7000 strong, leaving- it jw we eutnred. Had we been one hocr sooner, we should hare cut him off with his whole force, and cartainlr have beaWn the enemy next day.

We fallowed him, our advance skirmiahing with his rear guard, which wa admtraMy han-dted, mtil we had gained a point on Sugar week, about seven miles beyond Bentonville, and with in one or two miles ot tue strongly intrenenea camp of the enemy. In conference with Gens. McCnuoch and Mcintosh, who had accurate knowledge of this iocalky, 1 had ascertained that by making a detour of eight miles, I eouW reach; the telegraph read leading from Springfield to Fayetteville, and be immediately in rear of the enemy and his inuenchmeuts. I had revolved to adopt this route, and there fore baited the head cf the colomu near the point where the road by which I proposed to more diverges, threw (Hit my pickets and bi-vouafeed if hr the night; kmt mob after dark I inarched again, moving with Price's division iu advance, and taking the road by which I hoped before tlevyiight to reaeh the rear of the enemy. Some obstrnc ions which he had liastily thrown in the wy, so impeded aur march that we did wot gait the telegraph road until near 10 o'clock A.

at the 7th. From prisoners with ferage wagons, whom our cavalry pickets brought in, we wer assured that we were nut expected that quarter, and that me promise was fair for a complete surprise. I at ciice made dispositions fur attack, and directing Geu. Price te move forward cautiously, soan drew the ire ot a few skirmishers, who were rapidly reinforced, that before 1 1 o'clock we were fairly anRaged, the eetny holding very good portions and maintaining a heavy fire of artillery and small arms upon the constantly advancing columns which' were beinr; pressed uikw mm. I had directed Gen.

McCHllock to attack with his forces tbe enemy's left, anil before 10 o'clock it was evident that if his division could advaace, nr rvrn majltrir ftr- ground, I could -at ouee throw tot mad Price's left, advance his whole Jikte and ood rbe battle. I sent him a dispatch to this effect but it was never received by him. Before itWax penned his brave spirithad wtBged ks flight, and use of the HKt gallant feeders of the Confederacy had ought hw htst battle. About 3 1'. M.

I received by aids-d-camp the ioformauoN Uui Gins. McCullocit and Jlcln-esh. and Co'. Heritert were killed, nntathat the drvision wan without any head. I rtbeless pressed forward with the attack, and at sunset the enemy ws flying belore our victeriotis troops at eve it point in esr front, and wlien-nigfat fell we bad driven hint entirely Iro the field of battle.

Oar troops slept upon tueir arms nearly a mile beyond the point at which he made his met atatid, aad my headquarters tor the ware at the Elkhom Tavern. We had taken daring the day saveu cannon and about two hundred priaotiers. In tbe course of tbe right I ascertained that the am monition was almost exhausted, and that tbe efficer in charge of the ordoaaee supplies could not find his wagons, whieh, with tlie sub-sieteuce train, had been sent to Bentonville. Most cf the troops had been without any food since the morning of the 6th, and tlie artillery bones were beaten ont. It was, therefore, with no little anxiety that I awaited the dawn of day.

When it came, it revealed to me- the enemy in a new and stsoug position, offering battle- I made my dispositions at once to accept the gage, and by 7 o'clock the cannonading was as heavy as that of the previous day. On tbe side of the enemy the fire was mueh better atuiained, for being freed from the attack of my right wing, 'he could now concentrate his whole artillery. Finding that my right wing was much disorganized, aad that the batteries were, one after the other, retiring from the field with every, shot expended, I resolved to withdraw tbe army, and at ooce placed the ambu-Uium. with all of the wounded they would hear, upon the Huuteville roa and a portion of JacLuiUKU division, wmcn nan joiueu nie during th night, in position to follow, while I so diaposet my remaining forces as beet to deceive Hie enemy as to my intention, and to hold him in check while executing it. About 10 o'clock I cave the order" for the 1 afterwards for ther topTonaaee.1 to fall back aad cover the rear of tho army.

Thia was done very steadily; no attempt wu made by the enemy to follow us, and we encamped, about 3 o'clock r. about tea miles from" tbe hold of battle. Some demon-Ktrarions were made by his cavalry upon my tjaggage train and the batteries of artillery which reanmd by different routed from that taken by the army, bat they frere instantly checked, and, tbaata to tbe skill and courage of Col. Stone and Major WaderaJl of the baggage and artillery joined the army in aafety- So far as I can ascertain, our lowed amount to about six hundrod killed and wounded, aad two hundred prisoners, and own cannon which Jtaviog become disabled, I ordered to be thrown in to a raviave. Tbe best information I can procure of tlie enemy's lot places hid kUWatieHWtkutaeveu hundred, witli a iea mi euai We-eapiured about three hundred pron- l.wu I.

The h.irst-s having been killed, these guns could not be brought away. The farce with which I went into action was leas than 1-1, Out) men: that of the enemy in variously estimated at from 17,000 to 24,000.

During tbe whole of this engagement I was with the Missouri division under Price, and I have never seen belter fighters than those Mis iouri troops, or more gaiiaut leaders than General 1 vj, a i irec anu ma umcnni. torn toe aril io tlie last shot thty ctMitinuaily pushed on, and never yielded an inch they had, won and when at laet they received th- order to fan back, they retired steadily aud with cheers.

I had found him in the frequent references, I had with him. a m-gaefoas, pro dm counsellor, and a bolder soldier atrrer died for his country. Mcintosh had been very cuch distinguished sJl through the operation wbieh have taken place in this Tegion; and during my advance c. iu T.f-tjoUiin I placed htm hi com- immd of the cavalry brigade, and in efaargd of the pickets. He was aien, aanug, aw uevuum to huvdiity His kindiMWS ot deposition, with bis recklee.

bravery, lad rr stroo-ly to him; ht afWMcCulloeh Ml, had he remained to lead them, aU would have been well with my right wing; but after hmding a br H'awt cbarjv of cavalry, and carrytrg the enemy's batter', he rushed into tlie thick of the fight agate at the head of hie oW regiment, and was shot through the heart. The vislri of the two ofSeers watr hut proven by the effect of their fan upon the troepa. So long us brave oVr4ts are aoWihd by our people, tke names of MeCatllorJt mmL Melhtosh will be remembwed Gen. Steele, after gallantly maintaining a con' tinned and successful attack, was shot fhrougl the body. But I hope his distinguished services will lie restored to his country.

A noWe boy Churchill Clarke, commanded a battery of artil kry, aud during the fierce artillery actions of tbe tli and nth, was conspicuous tur tlie daring and skill which he exhibited. Ite fell at tlie very close of the action. Col. Rives fell mortally wounded about the.same time, and was a grest loss to us, Oa a field where were many gallant gentlemen, I remember him as one ot lite mott uiergeac and devoted of them all.

G. The Ai-Xian of the Ai iuy. I have Had occasion several times since the battle of Sunday to allude to the disgraceful hunt that night after the spoils. It began, indeed, early in the afternoon, for was not later than five o'clock certainly, when" I hear 'I comprint made of it to Gen. Beauregard.

At that rime citizens who had cowardly followed up the victorious army, seem to have been the princi pal Achans. They were plundering the tents out of which the enemy had been driven, in all directions, and loading themselves down with spoils. "And what snail be done with them, wai asked. 'Shoot thra down on the spot when taken in the act," replied the general. Later in the evening, and, indeed, all through the night and next morning, the same disgraceful hunt after the spoils was continued.

Plundering citizens, plundering soldiers, if I am cor rectly informed, weie to be seen everywhere. It was the same at Manassas, and I suppose is the same in all victorious armies. I have seen and heard and read so mach of it, that I take it for graSted. From the stoning of Achan down, it "has always been so, nor bag the intervening time at all lessened the evils of the practice. And now, when I see a man with a- valuable horse, taken in the field and never accounted for to the authorities, 1 cannot but call him an Achan of the army.

When I see a own wearing about a valuable overcoat, taken from the fkld and never accounted for, I cannot but call him an Achan of the army. hen I see a man bearing off a valuable gun. picked up on the field, but unaccounted lor, I think him au Achan of the army. And when, in the midst of a pursuit, or after, I see a. mau sneaking through captared camps to see what may be spoiled, I call him an Achan of the army.

They are so in more senses than one. They create disorganization in an army they so far stand in the way of a vigorous pursuit of tlie enemy; the act, moreover, demoralises the spoiler himself it lets him down, at one step, from an honorable soldier to a plundering brigand it will bring disgrace upon tbe holiest ot causes. The spoils of a victorious army should be carefully gathered Jip and preserved for the use of the army itself. Especially shouU thjg be the case with all the guns, ammunition, pro visions, clothing, and medical stores. They are the just poaseabion of tbe conqueror, are frequently of greit value, and should not be lost or carried off where they can be of any use.

At Manassas, it is believed, at least 10,000 valuable arms "Were picked up on the field and never accounted for, and pistols, sabre, clothing, iu proportion. They are scattered from Manassiis to New Orleans, and have neyer been of any use to tbe service. The are kept as relies at the very time when wo are suffering most for want of arms. But this is not th worst. When a man is in pursuit of spoils he is not in pursuit of the enemy.

Especially was this tbe case on Monday at Sbtkm, "on tbe east jide of Bethel," Had luc luluB 11 1. 1 .1. tLT would again on Monday have Leon driven, routed bar to the river. Arid, now, in the name of our common country, and of our common cause, I say, let this thing stop. If necessary, let a general and severe ordsr be issued ou the subject It may be in keeping with tbe character of our invaders, whose program is that of plunder, hut it is not in keeping with the character of a people fighting for tlisir national independence, and for the preservation of their Cor.

JV. O. Pica- Federal Wjteralloua Aeut HiiTHauah. Early yesterday morning heavy firing was heard to the eastward, but nothing definite in regard to it could be learned for some time. The steamer Ida, Capt.

Cercopely, went down the river early in the morning.and, upon her return, we learned the Allowing facts It appears that two Federal gut. boats had atxen)od a back rivor ta aaariv mvnnsite Fort two milea din- threw some twenty or thirty shot and etifell in the direction ot our batteries in that vieirrity. Tbe boats, two beam engine steamers, atrreoded as far up as Proctor Plantation, gome fenr miles below fcavannah. They threw a number of shot and shell towards McKay's Point, all of whieh fell short. Our batteries made no reply to the Federal guns, although, it is thought, they were within eacv rouge, not being more man two to two uu a half mites distant Trom the Federal gunboats.

Oercopely took the Ida'witMn mile and a half of the Federal vessels, but they did not fire on him. At about 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon the Federal eese went bttek to their usual anchorage at Mud river. Savannah AVm The Iron lnteret.1 What ia Weeded. Hon. Mark A.

Cooper, proprietor of the Etowah iron works in Cherokee, Georgia probably tba largest works of tbe kind in the Con federacy publishes in the Atlanta Cooftirrafg a letter whieh makes kBown some faets that ought to b9 widely disseminated. In compliance with Mr. Cooper's roqueot to the presf, and in the hope of arresting the attention of the government, we reproduce the main iwrtion his Hdter: We have had one wain want only for mouths past, and that is the want of stono "coal to finish iron. This want alone has linked our products, and tlie eountry's supply for six mouths' paid to one-third what it should have been. This want of stone coal has becu caused siuee Christmas mainly by th-s lack of good business habits ami proper reflection on tb part of those who have aesdaied tbe eoalrol of the tranapor-tatlhn department of the Nashville and Chattanooga railroa l.

The consequence haii been the postponement of work on gunboats In all tbe pouthern ports, and of gun carriages iu process of completion in Carolina aud Georgia. Another consequeace of this lack of stone coal is now felt aaa'(rous inconvenience, and is stopping the iron business here, to-vit: Our nnurativeis who have iMtiafitlr waited for work. not being able to get it, wJiibit the mill stood still for want of getting a living, have volunteered and joined the army.

From the New Orteaw PicayuBe-l CoRiKTir, April 10. Immediately after the close of the engagement of the 7th, (tbe second davof 'the fifhtl Gen. Bsauresrard sent, from Monterey by a courier tlie following: Okx. Grant Sir: At the close. of the con flict of Yesterday, mv forces beinrr exhausted by -the extraordinary length of time during which they were engaged with yours on that day and tbe preceding, and it being apparent mat you nau received and were still receiving reinforcements, I felt it to be my duty to with draw my troops from the immediate scene of the conflict.

Under these in accordance with the usages of war, I shall transmit this, under a flag party to the battle-field of Shiloh, tor the purpose ot giving decent lniermeni to my dead. Certain trentlemen wishing to avail themelves of this opportunity to remove the remains of their sons and mends, mmt request ior inem the privilege of accompanying the burial party in this connection I deem it proper to say that I am asking only what 1 have extended to your countrymen, under similar circumstances. Gen. Grant replied that because of the warm weather he had made heavy details for the burial of the dead of both parties, and that the work was now accomplished. He therefore must refuse to receive parties from Gen.

Beauregard within the lines of his (Grant's) army for that purpose. this note was respectfully addressed wuen. Beauregard, commanding Confederate army of the Mississippi, Monterey, Tennessee." The courier found the Federal pickets four miles boyond Monterey. He reports that tbe enemy appeared to be busy, burying the dead and taking care ot the wounded. The Confederates killed are much lewer titan was at first reported probably under 500.

The wounded are much more.nuraerouj, but most of these are slightly wounded. The timber protected our men. Federal prisoners are still coming in. Up wards of 3-59 hav.j arrived. i he officers ot the jt ederal army aro cautious sending out strong reconiwitering parties, who are constantly surprised by ours, awl losing in tailed, wounded and pnsouers.

Our 'inHRcea Tronastry Note. We take the following from the Richmond Examiner: It is suggested that Congress will take meas ures to check the evils which are becoming very perceptible from the large issues of treasury note, and will provide adequate means tor i absorbing the currency. We learn that the expenditures of the government are at the rate of two or three millions a week, and thorn is a weekly addition of that sum to the currency. The conversion of the notes into Confederate bonds would absorb them to the extent that the bonds were pure! aged from the government- agents; but, as those bonds are in private hands, in large amount, tor sale at par, or a traction Mow par, the government cannot sell them at a rate at all equal to its current expenditures. The large and increasing volume ot treasury notes issued by the government has had the effect of inflating the prices of productive prop- -ity, and of the neceasaties of life, besides creating a restlessness among the holders oi these notes to get rid of a capital that bears no interest, and to put them into some sort of investment that holds out a promise of profit, thus encouraging a morbid and banerul spirit ot speculation.

We bear it recommended as a remedy for the evils indicated, that Congress should make all future issues of treasury notes bear interest. The argument for this proposi tion is. that by cheapening the prices of what the government has to buy, it would diminish nstead ot lncieasing the burthen on tae public treasury tbe only additional burthen being that of a few millions of dollars a year in the shape of an inJarest account and that it would have tlie effect of quieting much of the utiHealthy specu inttoit of the country, as the pnnlent holders of notes would prefer to hold ou and cm certain of small profit, rather than speculate in the few and uncertain subjects ot risk which now otT-T in this country, aud hazard losses. One of the early issues ot Confederate notes bore interest at the low rate of 3 65-100 per ct, and they answered at a tuna for currency. Since the issue of notes btiaring no interest, the interest-bearing notes have disappeared from circulation, having been hoarded for investment or converted with accumulated interest into notes Which now constitute the sole Confederate circulation.

rjreHesce ViH4itnted. A letter from Chattanooga to the Atianta Con federacy says: Much has been said and writt' of late con cerning tbe clan destine cotton speculation by traitoroBs fittst lennesseeans hat much of it is true, we have no sort of doubt. This sort of game has been going on for months, and it is well known that there is, at ttiw time, more cot- tort stored away in East Tennessee than hat been during any one year for Sie past twenty. But it is known, also, that lennesseeans are not alone iu this nefarious business. A few traitor ous Georgians have a finger in tbe pie also, many pt them have co-operated with the iSast lennessee speculators by selling tbem cotton when they knew it was to be shipped to certain points on the East Tennessee aud Virginia, and East Tennessee railroads, to await th arrival of Lincoln's army when it would be immediately transmitted to Yankeedom.

Not only this; it is even asserted, upon good authority, that Georgians have formed partnerships with Tennesseeans, and have bought up and shipped cotton to tbo line of the East Tenneaaee loads for the purpose of selling it te the Yankees, should they succeed in getting into this countty. Now that tbe plot has been discovered, aud further shipment on the State road prohibited, a spasmodic eff-n-t is being made to cast the odium wholly upon Tmnesseeans. Let iustics be done to all: let the truth be known, and let not the Georgia tories attempt to make a acape goat of their brother lories in East Tennessee, when both are alike culpable. A tory is a tory, be it known, whether he breathes the mountain atmosphere of East Tennessee, or sniffs tbe balmy breeze of the gallant Empire State. Kitcli-ih Frew ou the I'rwidcHt'- Kc- SMgC.

From the London Time) The intelligent from America which wp-pul-lili to-day is the most important which has readied this country since the United States split iuto two republics. Tlie first offer has been made by the Korth. President Lincoln proposes to abolish slavery in the South, by gradually buy ing up the slaves with the federal revenues, b-aving, however, to eaeh State its present right to continue or to discard the institution itfolf. The object is avowed to be that of recovering to the Union the border utes. ne means ot pur-chftse are not set forth It is only suggested that a continuauce of the expenditure now applied to tlie war would soou suffice te purchase this expo-1 dient toward peace.

This proposition important, not tor its in-1 trinsic likelihood of acceptance, but simply because it is a proposition, and is the first bid made toward putting au end to the We may hope that others may follow, and that "the North may gradually rise iu its offers until something acceptable has been put lorth. The only reply of the South to Mr Lincoln has been a resolution of tlie Confederate House of Representatives to burn all cotton and tobacco that may be i danger of falltug into the hands of the invaders. Meanwhile the snow bus fallen on tbe district that separates the armies tie Potomac and Managua, and Gftil, McClelian is again prevented advancing. In every point of fills proposal of ihe Federal President gives great scope for speculation, and perhaps some glimpse of hopet hut it is for what it may herald, ami not for what it is. From the London Star and Dial.

President Lincoln has sent a message to Congress which will secure for him the wannest aympithy and a Irniration of the civilized piopeaes that the vo Houses should, by a joint resolution, offer to co-operate with the slave States for the gradual emancipation of tbe slave popnlatW lie advocates this proposition by-argumenta which a irresistible. He point out that thw measure ane of tbe most olicleat of self-preservation; and that if adopted by tlie more northern States, it would alienate them permanently from the Southern Confederacy, and so break tbe necx of the rebellion. It is impossible to exaggerate the importance of this document, or the momentous, character of the iues which are inverted in the propositions wnicit it contains, its, at all events, an indication that the dawn of emancipation is not remote, and that the government of the United orates are prepared to carry out that great act (i justice oy wise asii pehetul jncaus. From the Liverpool Poatj Mr. Lincoln has 9enffte.

u8grPsg a message so startling mat it nas almoN-suspended discussion at Washington, the different parties being afraid to meddle with it till they discover jlie tendency of public opinion. However it luaybe eventually received in America, there can be no doubt that it will have an incalculable effect in Europe, and that effect will be most favorable to ibe northern cause. Hitherto everv Enmiman country has justified its' leaning to the South, or its apatny toward me rsorth, on the ground that the Federal government was not honestly or heartily opposed to slavery. To that serious imputation the new message of President Lincoln is a direct answer, for lie proposes a scheme which will "that is the word he himself selects the entire emancipation of the ne groes. A Cnptniu Who Didn't fieueral Jehn-uoa.

The Richmond correspondent of the Charleston Courier, relates the follo wing anecdote of Geu. Joeoph E. Johnston: One of his favorite officers, indeed a mess mate, accosted him pleasantly a few mornings since. But the general scowled, muttered to himself, and never recognized the compliment. The unfortunate man felt not only slighted but humiliated.

He went to Major Rliett, related what had passed, and grievously nro ted that he knew not how he could have offduded his superior officer. Dinner hour haviug come our pining mend was not at the mess. "Where is -7' inquired Gen. Johnston. "He is morti fied and afflicted by tbe slight which jtoit put upon him this morning." "Me slight him exclaimed the general.

have ml seen him today." An explanation ensued the ofncfr was sent for, Johnston apologized, aud peace was again restored to the bosom of a loyal and sensitive soldier. Soon after, however, while pacing in one of these moods by the door of his residence, au officer, with a saddle ou his back, inquired of another, his superior in' rank, if he knew where' to direct, him to a fkotnuiker. There is one, was tbe waggish aes.ver, pointing-at the same time to Johnston, who was in citizen's clothes. Onward strode the interrogator until he reached the latter. He then threw down the saddle, and looking sternly at the general, with his hands in his pockets, gave the word of command.

That saddle must be ready in one hour, sir He then turned to depart. "Hold!" said Johnston. M'hat did you observe "I said, have that saddle ready in an hour, responded Captain Obstreperous. Do you know who I a-n 1" Yes you are a shoetanker, and I Want Jin to hurry up, too!" "Iam General John ston, sir, shouted the commander. In another moment, the saddle was picked cp and the captain retreat.

"Halt!" shouted tht general, who told you I was a shoemaker "An officer, sir I don't know his-name." Than leave the saddle aad return in au hour precisely." lie heard and he obeyed. Ita one hour the saddle was mended and in his poeeossiou. Now cap-taiu," said the general," endeavor to serve yeur country as I have endeavored to oblige you, and depart." Such a mau makes heroes and patriots out of soldiers. The Wixchestbr Battlk-Field. or- respondent of tlie New York IkrM The rebels carried no knapsacks with them into hc ion, and all tbe rations in their haversacks was a small cake of bread to each man.

They counted to a certainty ou capturing Win cheater. Tae only wagons they brought with litem were provision wagons. Tnis explains haw it was that they did not lose much besides arms in their retreat. The battle field after the struggle was a sight to be seen and remembered. The night was dark aud cold.

Aftor the battle the ambulances were busily engaged removing the wounded. The enemy carried off most of their wonoded aud some of their dead. Toe wounded ware intermingled with the drtad, and sufferings before they w-re removed to the hospitals were very poignant. Yesterday was spent in burying the dead. Tlie ghastly aspect of tin field yesterday after th wounded were removed, and before the dead were interred, was appalling.

Same with their faces off, some with their heads off, soon torn iiito fragments, and frightfully mangled by the round shot aud shell, and others simply hut quite as effectually killed by bullet wounds. It is singular that most ot the enemy killed by bullet wounds were shot through the head or the heart, showing the remarkable accuracy with which our western troops use tbe rifle. The enemy's wounds were not so fatal to us as ours were to them, and their weapons were, as a general rule, decidedly inferior to those ueed in our army. About the stone wall trie enemy were atiewn almost on top of eaeh other in heaps of dead. At this point, also, many of our brave felloes bit tiie dust Capt Jones, who eomnMuded the Irish battalion in the rebel army, is a prisoner in our hands, with b.tit his eyes shot out by one bullet.

Military News. We published a dispatch yesterday, stating that Secretary Stanton had expelled all newspaper correspondents Irom the army of the Potomac. This indicated that a further severe turn was to be given to the censorship of the press. But the report was not correct. Last night we received, in common with other publishers, a confidential dispatch from the war office, which, though not at liberty to publish, we deem it Sot improper to state, assures us that the representatives of the press are not to be excluded from the army and that full descriptions of battles or engagements will be allowed by telegraph or other wis We are fcrther informed that in a few days existing restrictions will be materially modified.

This will be gratifying intelligence' to newspaper publishers and rot)dors Cincinnati Qtizetie. The Removal of Gen Johkstox's Remains. The mortal remains of Gen. Albert Sidney Johnston-, commander-in-chief of our aimy in Tennessee, were removed yesterday morning at half-past II o'clock, from City Hall, here they had lain in state for two days, to a vault owned by Mayor Monroe, in the St. Louis Cemetery.

This was never intended to be the funeral ceremo ly, as was generally believwd, for the body will be left at that place temporarily only, until tbe family can make other arrangements for more appropriate obsequies. Whether the iUostrioiM dead will be taken hereafter to Texas, or to Kentucky, or buried iu New Or lea us, is not yet known. The hearse was preceded by a carriage, in which was tbe Rev. Dr. Lsacock, escorted by a few soldiers, and followed by about tifty'ehii'ens, on foot or is carriage.

N. 0. Picayune. During the first disastrous year of the war of the first American Revolution, arms were scare, and torie.8 were plenty in the State of New York. Tbe patriot convention voted a draft of tht1 militia, aud ordered that every man who ahH not have arms shall bring with him a shovel, spade, pickaxe or scythe, straightened and fixed upon a pole.

They further resolved unanimously that whenever tbe militia of a county should Le ordered to march en nuuim, tliey fheuld disarm an 4 bring with them tbe disaffected male inhabitants, between sixteen and fifty-five years of age," who shall serve as fatigue men to tlie regiments. Thf. Cotton Pro3LF.m. A bill wan inlro-riuccd into the House of Representatives yesterday by Mr. Holt, of Georgia, to provide additional means for the prosecntiou of tbe war by the purchase of the cottop crop.

The plan indi-aaied in this bill lias some novel features. It proposes that the government purchase the cotton now ou hand, to the extent of two sUlioti" i ot bales, on terms of in tbe public, f-j cents' per puuud, the bal- taC" of the purchase money to be paid out of the net proceeds ot tbe cottoawhen sold in market by the government, deducting the amount of purchase mooey paid ia advance. If the seller should elect to take the advauce payniet in eight per cent bonds, the remainder of the net proceeds of tbe sale by the government to he paid in such ftiL-ls as may be received iu the sa'e. If Treasury notes should lie paid iu advance, tbe remainder of the purchase money, to the extent of the net proceed of sale, to be paid in Confederate bonds, having twenty years to nm, and bearing ight per cent, interest. The bill, like all other measures of financial negotiation on the.

part af the government, is calculated to create a number of fat offices in the shape of "agencies." Hiehmonil tlniptirtr. LOCAL MATTERS. THURSDAY MORNINC5, APRIL 17, 16S Sugar and Molasses. Our friend Cayeere- qneets to call attention to tbe sal. at 10 o'clock tbU morning.
