To the /Milor of the Who/: • From otic of our exchanged prison ers, an old friend of mine, now in tlie 12tli Mississippi Regiment, but born and raised in Ihe county of Halifax, Va., 1 have come iu possession of a few facts, which may prove interesting. They show to what loav tricks and infamous lying the officers of the Yankee army can descend to seduce the ignorant and un suspecting Avho ntny fall into (heir power. My friend was taken at Ohaneellors ville and carried to Falmouth,and thence to Washington, Avith eight hundred oth ers. They Avere marched through all the principal streets of the city, as he thinks, to “make a show,” and carried out to the suburbs. On Monday last they were all drawn up iu line and ad dressed by (he Yankee officers. They Avere told that they v.’ere not to be ex changed and would all be sent, to Fort DelaYvare. The oath of allegiance was then offered them. Some of the men had been in the Fort, aud knowing its horrors, said they Yvottld prefer death to being kept there Iyvo years. About. -15 out of 800, were thus induced so take the oath. These lies Yvcre told by a Colonel of their army. 0. F. O. The Killing of Gf.n. Van*Dorn.—A gentleman just from Spring Hill, in Mau ry count)', gives me some particulars in regard to the death of Van Horn. The facts are singularly tragic, and in time of peace would create a national furore. The croYvded condition of the great war canvass, however, will distract the pub lic eye from the quiet, domestic melo drama. Since taking up his quarters in Spring Hill, Van Horn lias been upon terms of criminal intimacy with Mrs. Dr. Peters. Site was a Miss McKissick—young, hand some and well educated. Her family is of the highest respectability, and of con siderable wealth. The husband has been one of the most esteemed of citizens, an amiable man, member of the State Sen ate, and heavy planter; a brother of Major Peters, Chief Quartermaster to Gen. Polk. The pair have been married (a second marriage on the part of the gentleman) for about five years. On the day of the occurrence Dr. Peters called upon Van Dorn and obtained a pass to go to Nashville. Van Dorn gave it rea dily, doubtless feeling glad to get rid of a disagreeable and dangerous encum brance. They were alone together in an upper room, and it is supposed that Dr. Peters shot from the back of Van Dorn’s head, which was split in twain by the bullet. The report was not heard, lioyv ever, and Peters mounted his horse, rode away, crossed our lines with the pass previously obtained and entered Nash ville. He has been, I learn, received with marks of distinguished welcome. The body of Van Dorn was coffined and sent oil’ for interment. Mrs. Peters has returned to her own family. These, are the facts, hard and dry.—6'or. Rich. Enq. Clanton's Brigade.—ln a card in the Montgomery Advertiser, Gen. Clanton says: I have until the sth day of next June to complete my Brigade. I will instruct my Recruiting Officers (the exigencies of the service and Secretary of War per mitting.) to grant furloughs of twenty days when necessary to assist in securing the wheat crop of the State —to all who may he mustered into service froisj the present until that time. Our Governor, who has greatly assisted me in my organization, has requested its service lor the defence ol Alabama, as long as any portion ot ihe Slate is threat ened with invasion. 1 have secured arms, equipments, clothing and bounty for my entire com mand. This is the last opportunity to volunteer in Alabama, and 1 hope the kindness ol the Government will be appreciated. — -- — jfcgr The wheat in North Alabama is represented by correspondents and ot hers unusually promising.

Hooker Body L'ocd L (r. 1 Lr 1 lie New \ ork \\ orld mis ;tn interest ing letter detailing, in connected order, the various movements, manoeuvres and operations of the week’s fighting about Fredericksburg. The accounts we have hitherto received through the Nor thern papers have been confused and tragmeutary, and the following review put", in a brief and intelligible form-, the operations ol Hooker's army from the time oi its advance to iis retreat across the river, ir is, too, by far the most candid account we have yet seen from the enemy. The correspondent writes: The campaign of Gen. Hooker is over, and the operations of the army of the Rappanannock, upon the results of which many had looked with hope, and all Yvitli anxiety, have ended in complete failure. Commencing with the most flattering promises of cheering and de cisive victory, it has terminated in de feat—disaster. The confused and fragmentary ac counts already published, can give no adequate realization of events which the past nine days have developed; and a resume , in connected order, of the vari ous movements, manoeuvres and conflicts can alone convey a correct idea of how far we Yvere successful, how far we were defeated, and tlie causes of the present result, as far as they can be discerned. The difficulties ot ihe position in which the army y\' as placed are too well known to need much explanation. A wide river and forty miles of earth works were in front of the *enemy for their defence. To carry this position by a front attack, i:i tlie face of such ob stacles, were simply impossible, and to throtv the entire army across the river above or below these works would ne cessitate an abandonment of the pres ent base of supplies at Acquia Landing, for with our supplies and communica tions thus exposed, the enemy could not possibly fail to take advantage of it.— flow then could the difficulties of the po sition be successfully met and the enemy be driven from their entrenched posi tion ? The folloYving seems to have been the plan which was adopted, and which was in a great degree successful. Tin: Flan. —A portion of tlie army, about half of it, Yvas to cross the river near Fredericksburg and pretend to re netv the attempt, in which Burnside had been previously unsuccessful, and ac complish two objects—first, to hold the enemy’s force at that point ; and second to protect our communications and sup plies, while the other half of the army should make a crossing above the fortifi cations, and sweeping down with the greatest rapidity to tlie rear of Freder icksburg, take a strong position and hold it until they could he reinforced by the portion of the army engaged in ma king the feint, which Yvas to withdraw from its position, take the bridges to the point, of the river which had been unco vered by tlie flank movement, and the whole army was tbps to be concentrated in the rear of Fredericksburg. The fol loYving outline of each day’s operations will shoYV to Yvhat extent this bold and ‘hazardous plan has proved successful, and in what degree and for Yvhat reason it lias resulted so unfortunately. Monday and Tuesday.— On Monday, the 26th, was commenced the execution of this plan. Three corps—the Fifth, Eleventh and Twolf l l l —were ordered to march Yvitli eight day’s rations to Kel ly’s Ford, near the Orange and Alexan dria Railroad. General Slocum, of the Twelfth Corps, Yvas placed in command, and on Tuesday night the force entrust ed with the important part of executing the flank movement ’had reached the point at which they Yvere ordered to cross the Rappahannock. Tuesday night also three other corps, the First, Third, and Sixth, were sent, to Franklin’s cross ing, three miles below Fredericksburg, to be ready to undertake the crossing simultaneously Yvitli the other corps at Kelly’s Ford on Wednesday morning. Wednesday. —The enemy were evi dently not prepared to resist the cross-- ing at either point, and the affair was so well managed that both divisions of the army had established themselves on the west bank of the river, and covered llieir bridges without any serious oppo sition by the enemy. Gen. Sedgwick, who commanded the three corps oi’ tlie left wing, made no forward demonstra tion, except enough to attract the ene my and prevent them from turning upon the detachment Yvliich was forcing its way tow’ard the rear of the enemy’s works in command of Gen. Stonentan.— Gen. Hooker had personally superinten ded the passage of the troops at Kelly’s .Ford, and returned ivliile they pushed on toward the Rapidan at Germania Mills, where they crossed successfully, and made some progress beyond before “Wednesday night. Thursday. —Sedgwick still threatened the enemy, and held them near Freder icksburg, while Slocum pressed on from the Rapidan, and took his position across.the plank road, the enemy’s line Os retreat towards Gordonville at Chan cellorsville. Couch’s second corps,which had remained at Bank’s Ford, now mov ed up to the United States Ford, and crossed to join Gen. Slocum. Gen. Hook er also rejoined and took command of the four corps thus concentrated in the rear of Fredericksburg and across the line of the enemy’s retreat. It was noxV time for the detachment to take the de- hold their position until the other corps should join them, and, the army, thus united, be enabled to meet all the forces which the enemy might bring against them. Thursday night there was sharp work on both sides to out-manoeuvre the other. The enemy had now learned Yvith sufficient certain ty that a large force was in their rear in the direction of Chaneellorsville, and that Stoneman’s cavalry was greatly en dangering their railroad communication and they were moving accordingly away from Sedgwick toward the rear of Hook er, between ChancellorviLle and the Rap dan, by the roads at the south of the plank road, which was in our possession. While leaving Sedgwick’s front, the en my made unusual demonstrations of campfires, as if concentrating there,and similar devices were resorted to on our own side. But neither deceived the oth er, for both were moving away, and on our side’ a portion of the bridges were taken up immediately, and the Third corps moved all night towards the Uni ted States Ford to join with Gen. Hook er at Chaneellorsville. FltiDAT.—While the First ami Third Oot'i<? were moving from the leit wing: to join General Hooker, at ChancellorsviUe, anil while Jackson was taking a circuitous route to reach the rear of General Hooker’s lines holwcen Chaneellorsville and tlie Rapidan. two divisions —Sykes, of the j)tli Corps, anfl Williams’, of the 12th —pushed on nearer to the rear of Fredericksburg, skirmishing and fight ing with the enemy, who showed slight resistance in that direction. The enemy were tiius driven before them for four miles, when Gen. Hooker, tor some reason, ordered them to fall back and rejoin his lines at Chaneellorsville. By night his army was all concentrated except the Sixth Corps, and tvadv for a forward movement to the rear ofFred ericksburs Heights. The main body of the enemy had now moved away from their works at Freder icksburg, aud were preparing to attack our army on the right iu a direction from which, if beaten, tiny could successfully retreat, and from which it w as hardly expected they would meet us. Batuedyv.—General Hooker occupied the day iu awaiting the attack of tlie enemy, which was evi dently expected in front. The movements of the enemy seemed to indicate that they were retreat in'?, and as the main line of their retreat was occu pied by our forces an attack to recover that line ‘■'•'aa c af.dently e:q eeteu. \\ in; ‘ .is;l.c ?v.i ;.r: then, to liiiJ Ft -in'wail Jack-'-d. “it Saiurd-’ * . 1 1;-• - noon, upon our extreme right ami rear, between Uluincelforsviße uud Gorimnia Mills; A must furious and desperate attack- v.uc mad-. aud the right pfour line, which was heU by tiro iffiv. _th Corps, was almost instantly broke::, uni tk.- : . ,ic *t •:’ ■.i a..- fu . . ... ft! at under tiic and" —- j -• 1V )-> ii- ’ ; t , • bridges.

On oue liau.l j was a solid column of infantry retreating at double i quick ; on the other baud was a dense mass of Lu nins who were flying as hist as their lees could carry them, followed up by the rebels pouring their murderous volleys in upon us, yelling and hooting, to inerease the Confusion; hundreds of cavalry horses, left riderless al the lirst discharge from the rebels, dashing frantically about in ail directions; scores of batteries fl)ing from the held; battery wagons, ambulances, horses, no n. eauieoi, caissons-—all jumbled ami tumbled togeth er ill one inextricable mass—and the murderous lire of the rebels still pouring in upon them’ To add to tile terror of the occasion there was but one means to escape from the held, and that through a little narrow neck or ravine washed out by Scott's Creek. Towards this the confused mass plunged be .Ulong. for a moment it seemed as if no power could avert the frightful calamity that threatened the qntire srmy. On came the panic'stricken crowd, terrifies! artillery riders spurring and lash ing their horses to their utmost: ambulances up setting and being dashed to pieces against trees and stumps ; horses dashing over the held ; men flying and crying with alarm—a perfect torrent of passion apparently uncontrollable. The men ran in all directions. They all seemed possessed with an instinctive idea of the shortest and most direct line from the point whence they started to tlie United states Mine Ford, and the majority of them did not stop until they had reached ilia ibid. Many of them, on reaching the river, dashed in and swam to the north side, arid are supposed to I e running yet. The stampede was universal, the d.sgraee general. The Third Corps, under oChoral Sickles, was in terposed in the'breach thus made, and the excel lent coolness of this ottleer, with the hotter qualities which his corps exhibited, saved the further pro gress of the panic and the rout, and the evil was temporarily stayed. l!ut the poison was infused, the other corps had witnessed the utter confusion and panic of one full corps, and tlieir enthusiasm was from that moment dampened, and the. confi dence they had hitherto felt in their success under General llooker, was lost in the reflection that they could place little Confidence in one another. liut a little ground was lost in this event, yet all had an ill-boding sense of fear that our men would not prove reliable, and that our successes thus far were but to prove fruitless in the end. This rout of the Eleventh (formerly Feigel’s) Corps wa.< the crisis. This was the turning point from which our succeeding misfortunes can he most distinctly tra ced. Saturday closed the operations of the first week, with doubtful prospects of the final result, and the previous successes of the right wing seemed destined to end in disaster. Sedgwick, with the Sixth Corps, had at this time withdrawn to the east hank of the river, taken up his bridges, and replaced them again directly in li-ont of Fi-edericksburg, and prepared for an as sault on the morrow on the earth works hack of the town. (SUNDAY. —Tito assault of General Sedgwick upon the Heights of Fredericksburg was commenced on Sunday morning. A more determined and despe rate attack has not been made. A- men ever at tacked the fortifications of an enemy with more enthusiasm or vigor. Tile hank wjis steep, the lire of shot and shell was terrific, and the slaughter of General Sumner's corps, four months ago, gave little promise of success. To almost certain death the men charged up an j carried tiie works, drove the artillerists from their guns, captured twelve pieces of the best aud heaviest artillery, and many prisoners of war in their trenches. Avith the hea viest losses, Sedgwick followed up his success with the boldest energy, and pursued the enemy towards ChanccUorsville with the purpose of uniting with General Hooker at that place. but this brilliant success came too late, for (lie enemy hold the plank road, which the rout of the Eleventh Corps had yielded to them on Hie previous night, and the enemy was enabled to throw any sufficient force against him to prevent his junction with Hooker. This was speediiy done, and soon Sedgwick’s fine corps, the largest and perhaps the host of the army, was cut off from communication either with llooker or with Fredericksburg, and. thus isolated, was compelled to fall hack upon the river at banks’ ford, where bridges had been thrown over, by which, if severely pressed, he could make safe his retreat across the Rappahannock again.— Thus followed misfortune on misfortune, not for lack of skill or bravery, hut for the conduct of the miscreants who had tied from their position on the previous night utmost, upon the first attack of the enemy. but another repulse was sustained on Sunday morning by the army near Chancellorsville, The enemy renewed tiie attack and again drove hack our lines for half a mile. From the large brick house, which gives the name to this vicinity, the enemy could ho seen sweeping slowly, but'confi dently, determinedly, and surely,'through the clear ings which extended in front. Nothing could ex cite more admiration for the best qualities of the veteran soldier than the manner in which the ene my swept out, as they moved steadily onward, the forces which were opposed to them. W'e -ay it re luctantly, and fur the first time, that the enemy have showed the finest qualities, and we acknowl edge, on this occasion, their superiority in tin: open field to our own men. They delivered tlieir fire with precision, and were apparently indexible and immovable under the storm of bullets and shell which they were con stantly receiving. Coming to a piece of timber, which was occupied hv a division of our own men, half the number were detailed to clear the woods, it seemed certain that here they would he repuls ed, hut they marched right through the wood, driv ing our own soldiers out, who delivered their fire and 101 l hack, halted again, fired and fell hack as before, seeming to concede to the enemy, as a mat ter of course, the superiority which they evidently felt themselves. Our own men fought well. There was no lack of courage, hut. an evident feeling, ap parently the result ol'having been so often whip ped, or of having w itnessed the rout on the night previous, that they wore destined to he beaten, and the only thing for them to do was to tire and re treat. The enemy felt confident that they were to ho victorious, and our own men bad, from some oc casion, imbibed the same impression. Our men showed lack of earnestness and enthusiasm, tint no want of courage. All that they needed was the inspiration of a series of victories to look 1 ack up on, and an earnestness and confidence in the suc cess of the cause for which they were fighting.— Thus ended the Sabbath and another chapter in this series of our disasters. Monday.—Another day of misfortune, and the day was hardly ushered in before the enemy in force came down upon the detachments which had been thought sufficient to hold the works upon the Heights of Fredericksburg. First a brigade, then a division, then a larger force came in upon them, aud after strongly contesting the position they were compelled to yield and fall hack under the protection of the town. The enemy formed their line of battle on the outskirts, and within the town the two brigades of General (Gibbon held them in check as long as could he. Many wounded men were here in the hospitals, an 1 the position was maintained as long as possible. At length the ground was given up, the troops were withdrawn, the bridges taken up, and Fredericksburg was giv en hack to the enemy. They were now at liberty to turn their atten tion to Sedgwick, and they lost no time in concen trating their forces against him. They were too strong for him. After a most obstinate fight, in which the enemy almost were, successful in destroying the bridges and the possibility of liis escape, he made good his retreat also to the east bank of the Rappahannock. His losses were appalling. He suffered terribly, and in their retreat there was much confusion and disorder among the troops. A few at the first onset laid down tlieir arms and yielded themselves up prisoners without firing a musket, hut generally the men of the corps displayed the greatest gal lantry in fighting, and only yielded when over powered by superior numbers. Tuesday.—Jty this time the aspect of affairs had become exceedingly dark. The troops were much dispirited, and although they had held their posi tion on Monday, the prospect of meeting the com bined forces of the enemy with large reinforce ments, which they wore known to have received, was exceedingly unpromising. A severe storm ap peared also on Tuesday afternoon, swelling the Rappahannock to a torrent and threatening to carry away the bridges. Tuesday night (lie army of the Rappahannock was withdrawn, and our en tire force brought again to this side of the river, With the exception of many dead and wounded, who were left behind to the teiuler mercies of the enemy. Thus ended the nine days campaign of tiie Rap pahannock. What was, it would seem, the mos difficult part of tiie task was accomplished most successfully,. The army was concentrated in the rear of the enemy’s works, and they were forced to come out of them and give battle in an open field. Strange to say, the army failed to heat the enemy on comparatively equal ground and upon even footing. Our. Losses. —During those, nine days our losses can hardly fall short of 17,000 men. Possibly they will l>e more. “Tiie Finest Army on the Planet.” The*New York Herald, (editorial,) of tffic 19th April, contains the following ; How goes the war ? What is the pros pect? Do the combinations of the spring campaign as they are gradually unfolded {ive us satisfactory assurances of great victories and a glorious peace, or anoth av summer of disappointments and dis asters? We answer that we have an abiding faith that tlie days of she rebel lion are numbered, and that the end draws nigh. General Hooker, who com mands the finest army on the planet, is preparing for a forward movement which cannot be successfully resisted; for bis force will advance this time, not in bro ken detachments, scattered over half the State of Virginia, but en masse on the road to Richmond. “The best army o’n ‘he planet” seems to have been struck by .the tail of a comet. Costly.—The Cincinnati Enquirer says: “The preparations for the attack on Charleston cost one hundred and fif ty millions. The fight lasted hut half an hour, or at the rqte of five million dol lars per minute. Trent the Cleveland (Oh; j Plaindeahr. Signs of Loyalty. 1.

Pos sibly lie may have Ihe face to adopt a similar pretext as the cause of his last failure. One of the Yankee prisoners here says he saw him fall from Itis horse during the late battle, and perhaps he fainted. Without. Hooker victory was, of course, impossible. But what can be done with a General who, however true lent before Congressional committees, always faints in a fight? He will be known hereafter as “Fainting Joe,” in stead of “Fighting Joe.”— Richmond Dis patch. ——•— Thk PiVksikunt in Con.si lfation with Gen.

The Yankee blockading fleet off this port on Sunday was thirteen sail, of which eleven were steamers ami two sail ing vessels. • Abolition Vandalism jn East Ten nessee.—A reliable gentleman from East Tennessee, * writing from Shelbyville, gives an account of one achievement of East Tennessee lories : A parly’ of Fast Tennesseeans went to the house of a. good Southern lady, Mrs. Ohesley Williams, living in Eagleville, Williamson county, Tennessee, with the avowed intention of stealing everything they 7 could put their rogueish hands on. The first place they entered was her smoke house, and because site remon strated with them for taking her meat, they knocked her down, beat her, and finally choked her until she could not speak.
