Over Ten Thousand Rebels Killed, Wounded and Missing. Cowardice and Wandalism of the Rebels, &e., &e., &e, Heapquarrers ARMY OF TAR MississIPPs, Contra, Miss., April 11, 1862. Genmnar—On the 2d ult., having ascertained conclu- Bively, from the movements of the enemy on the Tennes- See river, and from reliabie sources of information, that his aim would be to cut off my communications in West Teunessee with the Kastern and Southern States, by operating from the Tennessce river, between Crump’s Banding and Eastport, as a base, 1 determined to foil his designs by concentrating all my available forces at and round Cormth. having called on the Governors of the ‘Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama and Louisiana to furnish additional troops, Some of thom—chietly regi- ments from Louisiana—soon reached this vicinity, and, with two divisions of General Polk's command ‘from Columbus, and a fine corps of troops from Mobile and Pensacola, under Major General Bragg, constituted tho Army of the Mississippi. At the same timo General Johnston being at Murfreesboro’, on the march to forma junction of his forces with mine, was called on to send at ‘a brigade by railroad, so that we might fail on and erush the enemy should he attempt an advance from under hig gunboats. The call on General Johnston was Promptly complicd with. His cutire force was also has- ‘ened in this direction, and by the Ist of April our united forcee were concentrated along the Mobile and Ohio Rail- Yoad from Bethel to Corinth, and on the Memphis and ‘Charleston Railroad from Corinth to Juka, It was then determined to assume the offensive and strike a sudden blow at the enemy in position under Genoral Grant, on the west bank of the Tennessee, at Pittsburg and jo the direction of Savannah. before he was vemforced by the army wader General Buell, then known to be advancing for that purpose by rapid marches from Nashville via Columbia, About the same time General Johnston was advised that such an operation conformed to the [Lips apd of the Presiden is “ By arapid and vigorous altack on General Grant, it was he would be beaten baci into his transporisand the river, or captured, in time to enable us to profit by the vic- tory, and remove lo the rear ail the stores and munitions that would fall into our hands in such an event before the arri- wal of General Bueli’s army on the wene. It was never contemplated, however, to retain the position thus gail ed, and abandon Corinth, the strategic poiut of the cam- paign. Want of proper officers, needful for the proper organi- zation of divisions and brigades of an army brought thus suddenly together, and other difficulties in the way of an @ffective organization, delayed the movement until the night of the 2d inst., when it was heard from a reijlable quarter that the junction of the enemy’s armies was wear at hand; it was thon, at a late hour, rmnimed that the attack should be attempted at once, iucomplete and ‘Imperfect as were our preparation for such a grave and Mmomentous adventure. Accordingly that night, at one ’clock A. M , the preiimiuary orders to the commanders of corps were issued for the movement. ‘On the following morning the detailed orders of movo- ‘Ment were fesued, and the movement, after some de- lay, commenced, the troops being in admirable spirits. It was expected we should be able to reach the enemy's Jines in time to attack them early on the Sth inst.

The first line, under Major General Hardee, ‘was constituted of his corps, augmented on his right by Gladden’s brigade, of Major General Bragg’s corps, de- loyed in line of Dattle, with their respective artillery, following immediately by the main road to Pittsburg, and the cavairy in rear of the wings. The second line, composed of the other troops of Bragg’s corps, followed the first at a distance of five hundred yards, in the samo order as the first. The army corps under General Poik followed the second ‘line, at the distance of about eight hundred yards, in lines of’ brigades, deployed, with, their Datteries in rearof each brigade, moving by the Pitts ‘Durg road, the left wing supported by cavalry; the re serve, under Brigadier Ueueral Breckinridge, followed closely the third line, in the same order, its right wing supported by cavalry. ‘These twocorps constituted the reserve, and were to Support the front lines of battle, by being deployed when Tequired on the right and jeft of the littsburg road, or otherwise act, according to the exigoncios of the battle. ‘At eight A. M. on the 6th inst.,a ceconuoitering party 9f the enemy having become engaged with our advanced ickets, the commander of the iorces gave orders to Begin the movement and attack as determined upon, ex- cept that Trabue’s brigade, of Breckinridge’s division, ‘was detached and advanced to support the left of Bragg’s corps and line of battle, when menaced by the encmy, and the other two brigades were directed to advauce by: the road to Hamburg, to support Bragg’s right, aud at ‘the same time Yanoey’s regiment, of Polk’s corps, was ‘advanced by the same road to reinforce the regiment of Bavairy and battery of four pieces, already thrown for- ward to watch and guard @rier’s, Baoner’a and Borlaud’s Ford on Lick Creek. ‘Thirty minutes after fiveo’clcck A.

Secondly, that any act show- ing preparation for removing property, any step toward such removal, and any act evidencing cleariy a design to evade tho law, brought such property within the view of this act. Thirdly, that the evidence in the cause raised a strong prima facie case of violation of the law.

Secondly, that the evidence did not show any dosign or intention of Guthrie to proceed with this age to the South. On both these grounds he directed bo ry to render a verdict for the claimant, which was + igi done. ‘The District Attorney then moved for a certificate of probable cruse for the United States Marshal and tho detective police in making this seizure. Mr. Evarts opposed the application. Judge Smalley said that inasmuch as the seizure of the property and the arrest of M. Guthric were made soon after the proclamation of the President was issued, and while the public mind was exeited, he should grant the certificate. Tho Court added that the arrest and seizure were without any justification, except such as arose from the reasons named by him; and that after Mr. Guthrie had been examined and rolexsed from Fort Lafayette, as a loyal man, his second arrest by the police authorities was high-handed aud very aujustifiadie in- deed; and he saw no reason, whilst there was a federal officer anu his deputies in this district, that the police should unwarrantably interfere with their duties; that had such second arrest been properly before him in con. nection with this cause, he should hesitate very long before he would give any certificate of probable cause. ‘The District Attorney then rose, and said that during last summer the police ad been of great service to the government by their vigilance and activity. ‘The Court added that it only commented on what was before it in counection with this causo,and the fact of the second arrest of aman decided upoa examination to be loyal. ‘Mr, Evyarts took an exception to the certificate of pro- able cause, with a view to ulterior proceedings to be in- stituted by Mr. Guthrie against the parties wuo arrested him without warrant or authority. ‘The property was handed over to Mr. Guthrie. course. ‘The call has elicited severe comment from the New Orleans True Delta. Nor is the eensure groundless. On the 16th'September last the New Orleans banks, in defiance of the law of the State, suspended specie payments, and refused to meet the claims of billholders and depositors in any other currency than Confederate notes. They claimed that ‘patriotism’ rendered the step necessary. On the 24th of April, Commo- dore Farragut’s fleet being then in the river, and the fall of the city peiag certain, these banks ‘“‘re- moved their specie to a place of safety.” Whether it was carried off by General Lovell, or concealed at or near New Orleans, cannot yet be determined. On 17th May they called upen their depositors to withdraw their deposits in Confederate notes. As the True Delta remarks, they began by forcing their depositors and billholders to receive these Confederate notes instead of specie and their own bank notes, and now they insist on compelling their creditors to receive payment of their claims jn these same Confederate notes, which, after 27th, will be utterly valueless and even contraband. A more complete swindle has seldom occurred in the banking history of this country. Itis, however, a natural consequence of the revolution into which the people of Louisiana plunged so rashly. The banks, with all their affected patriotism, have been looking out for themselves and sacrificing their depositors and billholders. They could hardly have been expected to act otherwise.
