Nevertheless, the!r works and position at York- town are very strong, and are of course manned by the very beat portion of thetr troops; not more than five or six thousand men being necessary to thet end. All these fxets Lave doubtiess been anticipated long since by our military authorities, who have made 211 necessary preparations to meet and over- come such of them as make fer the advantage of the rebels We ere not smonz those who anticipate heer- ing of the orrvrrence of anything decisive from that quarter for some dsys to come, wnder the elrcumstacees nerrat<d above. THE GREAT BATTLE Persons around us ere wondering why the Gov- ernment Lere hes not, up to this time, received more cfiicial information concerning the battle of Pitteburg Landing The reason is plain enough Such reports ‘would only come bere through Gen. Halleck, to whom they would be made by Generals Grantand Buell. Gen. Halleck being himself on the way from St. Louis to Pittsbnrg Landing, cannot be eastiy reached by telegrapb, or easily find an op- portunity to telegraph to Washington from some point on bis line of travel. Nevertheless, the expected and so eagerly de- sired dispatches from bim may arrive here at any moment We trust they may do so before the Star goes to press to-day. FROM SHIP POINT ‘The King Pbfllip arrived at the Navy Yard at half past eight this morning, having left Skip Point (near Yorktown, York river) at two o’clock yerterday afternoon. Captain Fox, Assistant Secre- tary of the Navy Seustor Grimes of lowa,Hon. Mr. Sedgwick of N. Y., and several other gentlemen came up on the King Phillip. Our forces are represented to be hourly gaining ground before Yorktown, but the bad condition of the roads materially retards their movements. Nothing new bas transpired on the river oT so. It is erroneous!y stated that the rebel Generals Joseph E. Johnston and A. Sidney Johnson are Drothers. In fact there isno relationship between them; and the names are not even spelt alike FROM THE MOUNTAIN DEPARTMENT Wassrtine, Va.. April 10—Hon. BE. M Stan- tom, Secretary of War—Gen.

Desperate Character of the Contest—Com- plete Details of the Contest. —_o- Cincinnati, April 10.—The correspondent of the Cincinnati Times gives the following account of the Pitteburg battle : “Our forces were stationed in the form ofa semi-circle, the right resting on a point north of Crump’s Landing, our centre being in front of the main road to Corinth, and our left extending to the river in the direction of Hamburg, four miles north of Pittsburg Landing. At 2 o’clock on the morning of the 6th, 400 men from General Prentiss’ Division were attackad by the enemy, half a mile in advance of our lines. Our men fell back on the Twenty-fifth Missouri, swiftly pursued by the enemy. The advance of the rebels reached Colonel Pea- body’s brigade just as the long roll was sounded eg ee s galting Bre until they reached the Second Divi- jon. Atsix o’clock the attack had become general along the entire front of our lines. The enemy, in large force, drove in the pickets of Gen. Sher- man’s division, and fell on the Forty-eight, Seven- tleth and Seventy-second @hio regiments. These troops had never before been iaction; and being so unexpectedly attacked, made as able a resist- ance as possible, but were, in common with the forces of Gen. Prentiss, compelled to seek support on the troops immediately in their rear. At one o’clock the entire line of both sides was iy The roar of cannon and musketry ‘was without intermission from the main centre to a point extending half way down the left wing. he Rebels made a desperate charge on the Fourteenth Ohio Battery, and not sufficient- ly sustained by infantry, it fell into their hands. nother severe fight occurred for the possession of Fifth Ohio Battery, and three of its guns taken by the enemy. By eleven o'clock commanders of regiments had fsllen, and in some cases nota single field officer remained; yet the fighting continued with an earnestness which showed that the contest on both sides was for ‘‘death or victory!” Foot by foot the ground was contested, and finding itim- possible to drive back our center, the enemy slackened their fire and made a vigerous effort on our left wing, endeavoring to outfiank and drive it to the river bank. This wing was composed of the Mth, 32d, 44th and 57th Indiana, Sth, 18th, Qist Illinois. Fronting its line, however, were the’S54th, 57th and 77th Ohio, and Sth Ohio cav- alry, of Sherman’s division. Per nearly two hours a sheetof fire blazed from both columns, the Rebels fighting with a valor that wasonly agueied by those contending with them. While the contest raged the hottest, the gunboat Tyler up the river to a point opposite the enemy and poured in brcadsides from her immense guns, greatly aiding in forc- ing the enemy back, ule te three o’clock, the battle raged with a Let f hat defies description. The Rebels had found their attempts to break our lines unavailing. They had striven to drive in our main column, and finding that impossi- ble, had turned all their strength upon our Jeft. Foiled in that quarter, they now made another attack on our centre, and made every effort to rout our forces before the reinfercements which had been sent for should come up. At 5o’clock there was a short cessation in the firing of the enemy, their lines falling back for early half a mile They then suédenly wheeled and again threw their entire force upon our left wing, determined to make a final struggle in that quarter; but the gunboats Tyler and Lexington poured in their shot thick and fast, with terrible effe fect . In the meantime Gen. Lew. Wallace, who had taken @ circuftous route for Crump’s Landing, appeared suddenly on the enemy’s right wing. In the face of this combination of circumstances, the Rebels felt that their enterprise that day was a failure. and, as night was approaching, fell back until tbey reached an advan us position somewhat in the rear of, yet occu, ing, the main road to Corinth. The gunboats continned to send their shell after them until they got out of range. After a weary watch of several hours of intense anxiety, the advance regiment of Gen. Buell’s army appeared on the opposite bank of the river, and the work of crossing the river began, the 36th Indiana and 68th Ohio being the first ‘to cross, followed by the main portion of Nelson’s and Bruce’s divisons. Cheer after cheer greeted their arrival and they were immediately sent to the advance where they Tested on their arma. All night long steamers were engaged in pid B Ing Gen. Buell’s forces across. When daylight broke it was evident that the rebels, too, had been strongly reinforced. THE SECOND DAY’s FIGHT. The battle was opened by the rebels at 7 o'clock from the Corinth road, and in half an hour ex- tended along the whole line. At nine o’clock the sound of artillery and mus- ketry fully equalled that of the previous day. ‘The enemy was met by the reinforcements and the still unwearied soldiers of yesterday with an ener- gy they certainly could not haveexpected. it be- came evident that they were avoiding the extreme of our left wing, and endeavoring with persever- ance and determination to find some weak points by which to turn our forces. They left one point, but returned to it immediately, and then sudden- ly, by some masterly stroke of Generalship, di- rected a most vigorous attack upon some division where they fancied they would not’ be expected; but the fire of our lines wasas steady as clock work, and it soon became evident that the enemy considered the task he had undertaken a hopeless one. Further reinforcements now an to arrive, and they were posted on the right of the main center, under Wailace. Gens. Grant, Buell, Nel- son, Sherman and Crittenden were everywhere present, directing the movements for a new stroke on the enemy. Suddenly both wings of our army were turned upon the enemy, with the intention of driving them into an extensive ravine. At the same time a powerful battery was stationed In the open field, and poured volley after volley of can- ister Into the rebel ranks. At 11% o’clock the roar of the battle shook the earth. ‘he Union guns were fired with all the energy that the prospects of the enemy’s defeat inspired, while the rebsls’ fire was not so vigor- ous, and they evinced a desire to withdraw They finally fell slowly back, keeping up a fire from their artillery and musketry a jong tbeir whole column, as they retreated. They moved in excellent order, battling at every advantage- ous point, and delivering their fire with con- siderable effect. But from all the divisions of our army they were pursued, a galling fire being kept upon their rear. ‘The enemy bed now been driven beyond our former lines, and were in full retreat for Corinth, pursued by our cavalry. The forces on both sides in this day’s battle are esti: at about 70,000 each.
