I THK DAILY lll-lil'L FRIDAY MOKNINU, JULY 1, 1W4. MORNING EDITION. Interesting Letter Iruiu the "rotit. A friend but kindly permitted in In print llin f,d lowing very interesting extracts of n l't t r received from a distinguished gentleman ut tlio front : At Mi.IIIK.TTA, ) V Jill Juno ! f, I, j I wrote you I11.1t night some hurried lines touch ing the affair of the 2 7 1 li inst. r believe I stilted Cheatham's casualties to bo two killed nnd sovon Ueu wounded. I'pnn furlhiir inquiry I find the number of hia killud and wounded will reach thirty in nuuibor. At lloncral Hardee's Ilrailqiiiirtom this morning the official lists allow hut about olio hundred lost In the entire vorpi. A vi'ry marvellous result in view of the fiereeuess mid iluriition of the assault. The hcavinot lassos foil upon those noble follows from Missouri, who ore iiiiiong the bravest and best of our troop, ami, I believe, uro principally in Kronen's Division. Tho roault of the whole ulTair In vrv satisfactory, ludoed, W our tuiuy. - It il (laid thil iuoruiug, that the enemy's line which confronted our extreme right in uncomforta ble proximity yesterday, disappcaiod last night, and some of our cavalry scouted a mile or two bo yond their position of yesterday, and bring no account of their whoroubouts. What Ihcy are lit, iii of course, a mutter of anxious conjecture. Home ay thi!y are retiring and tearing up the railroad track, but. thin cannot he ao, as the Hiatus along tho rest of line is unchanged, so fur as I am informed. All last night matter were profoundly quiet, lin ing profoundly quiet myself, of course, I could not hear anything, hut am assured by person whose " aurieulara" wore wide awake, that the night puls ed quietly away. To-day there has been comparti. tivo quiet, Have a little libelling along the moun tain, and a moderato skirmish about 9 o'clock ou the left. The quiet of the night seemed to excite tho ap prehensions of the quid nunc and conjectures to It meaning were rife, sonic conjecturing that Sher man was about attempting another flank movement, or it about to giro it up and retire as it is known that Harvey with eighty men had gotten into bis rear destroying soino inconsiderable bridge and capturing ami burning tbreo trains of supplies. Hut nothing as yet indicates bin purposes. It is most likely that his cbastiseniont of day before yesterday has temporarily checked his madness. The afore said Ilarvoy ii again upou the war path this morn ing. In my ramble thin morning I went upon the battle-field of the 27th. Tho scene was horrible. Tho Yankoe dead lay thick along our front as "leaves in Vallanibrosa." (I ask pardon of the leaves and of Vallauibrosa also.) Souieof them were in ton feet of our entrenchments. The fetid state of the atmosphere rendered it a most disagree able place. You know the odor of a defunct Yan ke differs from cologne in several essential partic ulars. Fortunately for tho olfactories of our gal lant boys they were about to bury the dead under a flag of truce. Humanity would seem to have de manded this long ago for these unhappy wretches, though dying tho victims of an iusanu fanaticism. The Federals had entrenched themselves within sixty y.rd of our linos and I had a full view of them and of tEeoTrt-m r ."itjine nnd the star." which all of us once loved "not wisely' Tinr mrr - I must relate one incident of the battle of the 37th, as it illuatraUi alike tho chivalry of a Ten oesseean and the port! diy of the Yankees. After the terrible repulse of the six lines of battle and while the surviving Federals of the assaulting party wore crouching undor cover of the hill which slopes down from that part of Cheatham's front the ground being strewn with Federal dead and woun ded one who was badly mutilated cried out to our boys in great agony, "Fur Ood's sake boys, bring me a drink of water. I would go to you if I could, but I am disabled in God's namo bring me a drink of water." A noble youth of our State, pitying the misera ble wrotoh, mounted the breastworks and shouted to the Federals, who were in full hearing: "I am going to take ono of your wounded men a drink of water, don't shoot at mo." Whereupon ho took tho dying Federal tlit canteen, allowed him todrink, and in retiring was Ored at by a dozen yankoes, and in stantly killed. Our boys witnessod the act, instant ly and without ordera, Dred at tho sqaad before they eould conceal thimsolvcs, and it is said killed every one one of them. So much for the retributive juitice of God. 'ion. Choathatn was tolling me tbis morning that nothing could surpass the dash ing gallantry of his men in the late fight. Gon. Johnston in riding along tho lines askod, haw i it (hat so many dead Federals lio so closo to your breast-works? He was told that Cheatham had ordered his men to roscrvo their fire, until the enemy almost touched tho niiu.ile.1 of their guns. "Ah," said old Joe, "I understand it now." The truth il however, as I was told by the soldiers this morning, thoso who fell so near our works were endeavoring to get in anil surrender thernsolvos, but the exigoncy would not allow of discrimination. Homo who did get in said to our boys, "lliero is a thousand mon there wish to como in and surrender if you will let thorn," It is duo to thoso people, however, to say that, as a general thing, their charge was bold, steady and creditable. Tho as sailing Regiments wero from Ohio, Indiana Illinois and Kentucky, as tho register of prisoners shows. tft. Andy Johnson says that he wants the large plantations of rebels in Tennessee, divided up into small farms and sold to Ao,ic men. A very Black Republican votes., How" ' Hoes' ew-aisW iiui that some of his own party may want to purchase a small farm? Wo aro at a loss to soe what his object can be in excluding tbein, especially as it ia an old adago that "birds of a feather will flock to gether," and upou this principle Andy would natu rally prefer that tho country should be inhabited bt thieves and scoundrels. Whenever Andy can gel Tennesse occupied exclusively by honest men, i, will be an unhealthy couutrp for him to live in, for justice will thon claim its own, and his time will be short. jHf We are informed that thoro aro many ladies through the country, who would willingly manu facture Blackberry wine and cordial for Hospital use, if the government would supply them with tho necessary quantity of sugar with which to do it. The matter is worthy of the immediate attention of the proper authorities. ,Tbe berries aro now plenty but will not last loug. A little energy displayed at this time ill distributing sugar, would probably result in supplying our hospitals with a sufficiency of these much needed articles. It is understood that at the commencement of the present campaign, Gen. Grant's programme contemplated the flaming of tho "old flag," the " Bar Siaugled Spanner " over the city of Kioh mond on the 4th of July. From present indica tions he will not bo within sight of tho city at that time unless he should be there as a prisoner. Advices from Denmark continue warlike, and the Indications are that the war will go on. Ml ! J li 'If " The (ioud Time Coining. The present condition of I ho Northern govern ment is auspicious lor us whose most reliable hope Is in the bankruptcy of Unit people, the disorgan isation of their society, and tho weakening of their power. (In every baud we see multiplied evidences of disintegration and anarchy of social tumult and nalional and individual ruin. Disaster la thiikouing fust and heal y about thoir standard, and their financial system is hopelessly prostrate, while a thousand milli ofnaliouul currency is turning to ashes mid dross in the hands of the mil lions who have toiled lor and are holding it as their all. Hostility to the war is "featuring to revolt" and threatens lo break out into opeu and undisguis ed rosiftciico to the government. Exiled traitors return unasked and boldly hurl detiuueo into the teeth of tho authorities. Tho working classes, op pressed by the depreciation uf tho currency and their meagre wages, are on the verge of destitution and beggary, and daily find their condition reu dered uioro hopeless by tho continued decline of the only representative of money now within thoir reach. To add to thoir affliction), the Northern people are compelled to witness the agoui.iug sp -o-taclo of their fathers, brothers, and husbands, led on by ambitious generals and an unscrupulous gov ernment, falling by thousands, day al ter day, ill au jnsulio and hopeless rHorl to enslave a people who havo proved both their' determination and ability to bo entirely free. , Under these circumstances it ia uot strange that !.., n- r.;..t.ii'w,.i .i,i,l k. i ., nvAuK4 and explosive condition, and look with hostility upon the leaders who have brought them to this direful and uiihupny condition. And amid all of this present and prospective ruin aud distress, thoro is no ray of light to break the general gloom. Nothing but the most decisive military successes could afford even temporary relief, and they aro impossible. Iloth (irant and Sherman have shat tered and crippled their armies against our un yielding and heroic columns, until they are no lon ger able to advance, and they now stand confused and demoralized in the presence of adversaries they can neither intimidate or destroy. Their ve terans of three years of warfare arc melting away under the ferocious aud reckless strategy of thoir (irncrals, anil thuir places cannot be supplied. Any reinforcements which may bo raised will ne cessarily be raw and inexperienced, unable to oiler any successful resilience to our batlle-seasonod and hardy Confederates. Tho Northern people see and know these facts and hence their great depression aud despair. Every defeat of the Yankee armies now swells the number of the advocates of peace, and increases the opposition to the war. Every check shakes the faith of thousands who have heretofore been conli'lent of final triumph, and if God will con tinue, as he has done, to smile upon our arms and grunt us victories, we may hope tu aao an uprising in the North ill the next three months which will compel the government to stop hostilities and sue for peace. JHf The Cincinnati Gazette's special from Washington, Tuesday, says the rapid rise in Hold attracts the general altontion o( the public men. Mr. Chase, it is understood, hold very emphatical ly that nothing but a victory can produce a per manent remedy. Every effort will be made to re strict the volume of currency afloat. Iti'publli aii Kule and Ituln. A writer in the Indianapolis .Sentinel sums up some uf the results of Republican role for the past three years. The whole people of the whole coun try are seeing and feeling these results. They press upon all alike high taxes and high prices havo to be paid by all; tho ruin and disaster affect Luii - by and by all will wondor at the infamv aim leluslon First: VVo have lust, Ly ueati, inf perhlilnflTU disability, more than a million of men from vio lence and disease, in this war. Over two millions havo enlisted altogether. There are not much over half Jn1 million in the tield now. Where are the balance? Second: We havo created a debt of over three thousand millions of dollars. The official report o' ' the Secretary of tho Treasury does not show over half the ao'uul debt; it does not take into account tho floating debt created by quartermasters and other officers, for which receipts, certificates and vouchers are outstanding. Third: lly tho Abolition aud Confiscation Acts, every vestige of Union feeling in the South has boon blotted out, as Dunmore's policy united the Colon its. Fourth : Tho nation's wealth is about twelve thousand millions of dollars. Three thousand mil lions of that has been destroyed and wasted. So we are that much poorer. In place is supplied by irreduemable paper. Fiftli: The whole country is ono vast post-houso of sickness and disease, consequent upon congrogi gating men in largo bodies, and then scattering them throughout the land. Sixth: In every direction wo may turn, wo hoar the voice of mourning, and zte tho weeds of afflic tion. Well might the wise man say: "When the righteous are in authority, tho people rejoice; but when the wicked bcareth rulo, the people mourn." Seventh: Demoralization is spreading, like a lep rous sore, through all tho ramifications of society. Look at the police reports; there is no longer much regard for human lifo. Look around you and see tho "dissolution of tho framowork of society." Hut the other day two Republican mipers wero discuss ing tho question whether, at tho headquarters of Abolition officials, 'then were fifteen thousand or only ten thousand lewd women. Rascality end publio plunder, as in tho cases of Cameron and Fremont, aro regarded and rewarded as special vir tues in officials. .V. Freemnn'e Jtmrnnl. 1st and 21th Tennessee Itcglineutsj.

Confederate lrninu Ki'om the Mobile Advertiser ami Register.) Letter From North Mississippi. Tui'ti.0 Mini, June 15, 1864. There are some rumors here of sumcWnt lutoiest far m .....inm,.li,,n. 0"l CM"'0 through the lines somehow. Irotu the .North, h, that, the South has been recognir.ad by France and Kuyiaiib. I think it has originated from tetters Whieh have bien misunderstood, but which were certaiuly re ceived from Washington, one at Maytleld, Kentucky from Liieiau Adncrson, Congressman from that District, anil the other at Dresden, Twnessoc, from the notorious Emerson Etheridge, saving that hos tilities would eeasn next uionlb, or at all events, that an armistice would bo proposed and begging their respective friends to use their inmost endea vors to have those Slates to go with the Xorth. I had this information two days aga but would uot write it for publication for fear Ike gentleman who brought it, a very truthful friend of mine just down trom Jaekson, Tenu., may havo been de ceived. He got the information from parties di rectfrom Maylicld, Ky., and as another equally veracious friend of mine brings the Saiuu intelli gence in a mote authenticated sbspc, I deem it sufficiently reliably, as it is certaiuly important enough for publication, for surely a Congressman or even an ex member, writing froin Washington ought lo speak by tho card. Let mo warn your readers, however, lest undue iiuportauoe be attached to tho rumor, that Ander son and Etheridge may be writing merely hypo thclica'ly, knowing perhaps that Grant has been allowed till the 4th of July to take Richmond, hut being satisfied that he will inevitably fail. I think we should feel pretty (anguine ourselves on such a hypothesis. The question arises, if England and France have interposed, is it among their propo sitions to have the border States decide for theu. selves, ns implied by tho action of these prominent characters? Etheridge says "we are whipped,'' and Anderson that "the present Congress will recognise the Con federacy." This i.- positive. At all eventa. I cannot doubt that the war is drawing rapidly to a close, and will end soon after the assembling of the Federal Congress next De cember. Fremont, in my ophiiuu, will outrun Lin coln if ho does not boat the Democratic candidates, of whom there will probably bo two JfcClellan and Vallandigham. Something lite the following will be the complexion of the several tickets : Lincoln and Johnston, Republican Miscegon War candidates. Fremont and Cochrane, Ami-Administration Miscegen War candidates. McClellan and Seymour (or Johnston), Anti-Administration Ultra War Democrats. Vallandigham and Wood (or Voorhies), Anti Administration Conservative Democrats. If the last run as Peace candidates, r.J !h co plo at home aud the army are allowed tu vote unre servedly, the contest will lio, I think, between Val landigham and Fremont, otherwise it will be be tween the first throe, leaving Vallandigham but little chance. Fremont's letter aud the ono-torm plutitude and the no! enptandum platform of the f il'i'iY"1'"" which nominated him, will, I think, ta ins; during an administration of Tour years slgrtalTy failed to put down the rebellion. Albeit they may glory in bis renoininatiou from the distant stand point of San Francisco, when tho grim visage of Mars has scarcely been seen at their doors, those who have most immediately experienced his pres ence will be slow to protract his visit four years longer by the re-electiou of Liucohi; and unless constrained at the ballot- box, let them talk as they will for effect before hand, the glamor of the Flag and tho Union will he as effectually dissipated from thoir vision as it waa from ours when by one full act of secession we tore the deceitful trellis of im agination from the web of actuality in the ineffect ual hunting, tinselled with such inscriptions as "the Constitution and the Union," which we were so wont to wavo in ancestral pride on every politi cal occasion. Several flags of truce havo been passing lately, but their meaning has not bsen divulged. One left for Memphis this morning. It is said by parties from there that the place could buve been taken with two or thrco regiments at one time siuce the fight. It is also reported the enemy intend to come out in force to repair the Sturgis disaster. Let them come, wo are in considerable force ourselves. The reports as to the enemy's movements are con flicting, but 1 hold tu tho opinion that they will come shortly. I learn that a great many men from Kentucky, who have fitted themselves oat for the cavalry ser vice, havo stopped on the State line, on account of the mischievous falsehood taken back by deserters, that the cavalry of Buford's command wero being dismounted.

The boy had a very stingy old fellow for a father, who would never give him any money to spend at a show or anything else. One day the boy read tho great and small bills of a showman with inexpressible delight. Upon those bills it was set foith that wonderful things would b" performed nt the Court House that night. The boy went to his father and so persist ently begged him for a quarter that the old man yielded. Of course he was the first in the house uud when tho show went oft" he gazed in perfect wonder. Amoug the rest of the pictures wasamina ture representation of the burning of Moscow, the blowing up of its Kiemlin a ad palaces, tiring of cannon, et. In order to give the thing effect the showman had small pop guns charged with sure enough powder, which he let off occasionally. In deed ho bad a keg of powder behind the curtain, whieh aeciduntly caught, blowing up house, audi euce, show and showman. The boy fell in the street and scrambling up from the dust, exclaimed: " I wonder what that d n fool will show next ? " SiSGt'LAR I'KKSKSTiuasr. A yoaug isran who was born and raised in La Grange, we believe, en tered the service and repaired promptly to the front. He had a presentiment tbt h woul be killed in the first engagement, and accordingly when be gi.t to Atlanta he had a coffiin made, with, instructions as to his burial, ic. Sure eaoigh, in a few days be was killed in a skirmish and his body was placed in the cofhin he had previously prepared for its in terment.
