Tile Whereabouts or the "G-r-e-a-i
, American Eagle"
A' citizen of our place who has just
"returned from Chicago, and was there
vhen the rebel prisoners taken at Ft
Donaldson reached that, place, informs
lis that he learned from those acquainted
with him, that CoL G. H. Nixox, former
ly the Register for the Laad Office in
thai city, i a Brigade Quartermaster
under Pillow; was at Ft. Donaldson and
escaped with the fleeing 5000 under Floyd
. Would 'nt it have been a very great

bare-foot boy, with his shirt tail fluttering
in the breeze," had been captured and
and sent up among the "poor white trash
of the North?". Wonder if the specula
tion in Tennessee lionds -Detier man
tf-olc"raid "over five rer cent per
o
exhausted yet?. How does the ;tanning
business" pay ? Does the "contemplation
of this great and g-e-Z-o-Rious country"
yet create "soporific influence ?" Does
the "American Eagle" the Col. put to
roost on that "monument erected in the
Missouri Valley, higher than the thought
cf inan can reach, with one wing dipped
in the Atlantic, the other in the Pacific,
and its head buried in the thunder's
home,'-' still occupy that lofty perch ?
Jeff. Davis, in his proclamation for a
day of fasting and prayer says to his de
luded followers :
"We h&ve been enabled to lay anew
the foundations of a free government,
and. to repel th efforts of our enemies to
destroy us. Law has reigned supreme,
and! throughout our wide spread limits
personal liberty and private rights have
been duly honored."
The "foundation" not only proves lobe
pocT material, but tne builders are mat
ing a wonderful poor job erjeciiDg the
edifice. They play the deuce, ioo repel
ling "our enemies.". The style of honor
ing "personal liberty"' and " prirate
rights," in the rebel confederacy, is pe
culiar to their leaders Floyd, and Ben
jatnin for instance stealing all they can
lay hands on.
Jeff, closes his sacriligious address with
these words:
"And I do hereby invite the reverend
clergy and people of the Confederate
States to repair to the:r.respective places
of public worship, to humiliate themselves
before Almighty God, and pray for his
protection and favor to our beloved coun
try, and that we may be saved from our
enemies and from the hands of all that
hate us."
' To save such traitorous rebels as Davis,
Floyd,Toombs, Benjamin, &, Co., from
all their "enemies." and "all that hate"
them, would be of course superhuman;
ard we doubt even "Almighty God" en
tering upon the undertaking.
Jeff. Davis in his recent inaugural,
says:
"Our Confederacy has grown from six
to thirteen States, and Maryland, already
united to us by hallowed memories and
material interests, will, I believe, when
able to speak with unstifled voice, connect
her destiny with the South."
Bully for Maryland ! Isn't Missouri,
Kentucky and Tennessee and soon may
b3 added every State within the limits of
the so-called Southern Confederacy
"united by hallowed memories and ma
terial interests," also? I hey connect
their. "destinies with the South" with a
vengeanee when "able to speak with un
stifled voice !" Hasn't the . old Jlag
marched on with stately strides, and plan
ted kself upon the soil of every one of
your "thirteen States" save two?
Jefferson endeavors to encourage his
jeople by telling them we are getting in
debt. Hear him :
"The period is at hand when our foes

c'clt which they have incurred a debt
which, in their euortf to subjugate us,
tas already attained the fearful dimen
sions as will subject them to burthens
' which must continue to oppress them for
generations to come.
It is supposed Jeff.'s bogus government
ss carried on upon the strictest principles;
of economy; costs nothing ; incurring no
.debts! They made, it is true, a nice
start in that direction by the aid of Floyd
and Cobb, who stole sufficient from the
general government to- euip their army.
But unless they were engaged in that
peculiar style of "defending Southern
rights" longer than has yet been proven,
ihey must be nearly cut, and they may yet
find "burthens" which will "oppress" for
'generations to come
In a Bad Hunor.
The Richmond Virginia Dispatch of
Feb. 19, in announcing the rebel defeat
at Ft. Donelson. lets off. the following
highfalutin. No wonder the editor is
out of humor. His pet scheme of trea
son is rapidly crumbling ; the hangman's
rope waits, and hell gapes to receive the
demon traitors who inaugurated the un
holy rebellion.
"If these blooJy barbarians, whose
hands are now soaked to the elbows in
the life-blood of men defending their
own homes and firesides, dream that they
are one inch nearer the subjugation of
the South than when they started on their
infernal mission, they prove themselves
to be fools and madmen as well as sav
ages and murderers. They have taught
us a lesson, we admit ; they have taught
us to be more wary and circumspect
to husband with greater care our limited
resources and not to underate the enemy
We have overrated the Cowardice of the
Yankees and vnerrated their resources "
An honest confession is good for the
soul. I
"But they have placed between them
and us a gulf that can never be crossed
by their arts or their arms, and a univer
sal determination to die, if die we must,
but never permit her to be subjugated by
the most malignant, the most murderous,
the meanest of mankind, whose name is
this very moment such a by-word and
reproach throughout Europe, for their
combined cruelty and cowardice, that
their own ambrssadors cannot stand the
scorn of the world's contempt, and are
all anxious to fly back to. the United
States.

The Rebels Begin to see Stars.
A rebel Virginia paper, in comment
ing upon the recent disaster at Ft. Don
elson, says r
"The crises of the war is upon ir?, and
rererse upon re verse comes in quick suc
cession. We have scarcely recorered
from the depression consequent upon- our
defeat at Ft. Henry mid Roanoke, ere
we are called upon to meet a still heav
ier calamity in the fall of Ft. Donelson,
and the surrender of our brave troops
holding that important post.
W e have not teen of those who enter
tained the belief that our arms would be
always successful, or that it was in the
bounds of possibility for our small army
to meet and drive back the overwhelm
ing hords of the enemy at every point
at which the enemy could penetrate, and
not, therefore, taken by surprise, nor
greatly discouraged, by the untoward
events which have taken place in the
West, and on the Atlantic coast. We
have not kaown ojr own strength, al
though we have been greatly too con
confident of the weakness and cowardice
of our foe. If these disasters shall turn
our thoughts in upon ourselves, and shall
arouse us to the full comprehension of
our perilous situation, and to the energy
and activity requisite for the occasion,
they will not have overtaken us m vain.
. We do not believerthe defeat at Fort
Donelson is of the proportion our tele
graphic column would give us to under
stand. We see much to encourage us, even in
this dark hour. Our permanent gov
ernment is launched upoa the stormy
sea, it is true ; bat- we think her tim
bers are strong enough to bear the vio
lence of the storm, and that the noble
structure wilt be none the worse for the
rough usage to which it has been thus
early subjected."
Yes, "If these disasters," turn the
"thoughts" of your people, and "arouse
them to energy and activity." The mis
fortune to ihe rebel cause is,, that when
the "thoughts" of the people are "turn-
eu meir -activity, ana "energy." is
exercised in the wsong direction. The
"thoughts"" of the people in the seceeded
States have been controlled by military
power, and when an opportunity presents
to "turn," they "turn" loyal citizens.
The Richmond Examiner of a late
date has the following; i
'The disaffection of a large portion of
the foreign. population in Richmond which
has been developed by their stuborn re
sistance of the military draft now in pro
gress, is, of itself sufficient to excite the
vigilance of our citizens, and to put them
on their guard with regard to particular
classes of foreigners in our midst. We
are not in the habit of reporting infor
mation without satisfactory assurances
of its correctness.
We have in our possession some curi
ous information, which is from a- source
not only highly patriotic, but to which
implicit credit is due, respecting the
movements and suspicious speeches of a
number of the foreign population of this
city. We are- not entirely at liberty,
nor do we deem it prudent, to detail the
facts which have been communicated to
us ; but we may assure the public that
vigilance is the price of their safety from
enemies in our midst.
A late number of a Memphis paper says:
"The people apprehend an immediate
advance of the Northmen, and evince
their joy in every village and neighbor
hood. The Unionists are making dem
onstrations in many of the northern
connties. and even at Memphis-there
were exhibitions of joy on the arrival of
news from Beech Gove.'!
Our Phucny Phellow perpetrates the
following:
Why may the rebel Floyd be supposed
to have been in a religious mood when
he left Ft. Donaldson ? .
Because he went singing"
" "I lore to tteal a while away
From erery cumtrirg care."
A correspondent of the Memphis
lanche, says ;
"Johnston and Beauregard have their
heads together, and -they will mature
plans which will secure us victories.
Knowing ones assert that our troops will
be in Cincinnati in forty days."
When "our trocps". reach Cincinnati,
they will be acting ia the capacity of pris
oners of tear.
If Buckuer was, as has been declared
tme of the "great guns" of rebellion, he

Army Corrfspondence Nebraska Adrertlser.
From the Nebraska First, After
the Battle.
Fout Hesby, Tennessee,
February i"0ih, 1S(32. $
My last was written on board steamer
"White Cloud," and mailed at Paducab,
Kentucky, February 12th. On the af
ternoon of that day, as fine a sight as
ever was seen was beheld on the river
Ohio. Five gun boats, and eleven steam
ers laden with troops and instruments of
war, moved up the river in grand array.
Soldiers on shore hurrahed, and troops on
steamers cheered. Handkerchief by la
dies were waved, and hats and caps by
soldiers swunsr. The sun declined in the
west, and over all a hallo tf glory flung
It seemed a3 if Nature in that hour ap
nroved the Union demonstration, and
smiled upon the Cumberland River Ex
pedition, under command of Col. Thayer
of the Nebraska First. The soldiers
spirits were elevated, and doubtless, ten
thousand hearts beat faster than was
their usual wont; for the battle hour
drew near, and glory beckoned in the
van. Fame, in the distance, turned him
round aze.with wondering eyes upon
the rlorious scene, and the Nebraska
boys were eager to go forward and seize
hold of his garments. And they did go
forward, surrounded him, and fully sus
tained their reputation.
By 10 o'clock, P. M., we touched at
Smithland, Ky., when we were again
hailed by the firing cf Union cannon
We soon were gliding up the the Cum-
a
benana river, ana as the bright moon
shimmered down her mild and beautifu
light, we passed many a beautiful land
scape,- which with the steamers on the
stream, with many a throng on upper
decks, and clouds of smoke and steam
resting- against the sky, formed a scene
so- interesting that an enthusiastic pain
ter would have hailed: it with extreme de
light. Whoever writes the history of
! t II Ml rf 1
this rebellion, win ruia many a grand
subject for a splendid theme, and1 may
write a book that will transcend the most
absorbing novel ever written.
Without pausing to recount the many
incidents of the boat-ride, or the exuber
ance of the spirits of our officers and
men during the trip, I will draw near the
more thrilling interests of the day of bat
tie, and pen the valor of our boys during
the attack.
On Friday, February 11th, long ere
the day dawned, the fleet landed abou
three miles below t ort Jjoneison ; and
before the sun rose, most of the troops
were on shore surrounding many a firo
tor the morninjr was cold, snow navinsr
fallen during -4he. night. Although we
nre In a portion, of the warm and "sunny
South," wb feel the icy winds of the fro
zen North, whichVrnayhapr have followed
us down to the land of "Dixie," to keep
us brave and fearless to meet the South
ern knightsi
In the afternoon our Brigade, and our
Regiment in the van, took up the line o
march in a south-westerly direction to
gain a position west of the Fort and for
tifications. while the run boats moved
up the river to attack the Fort itself.
About a quarter to 3, P. M. the can
nonading commenced ; slowly at first,
but gradually growing faster and more
terrific, until night's black mantle cov
ered all, an the gunners rested from
their arduous labors.
About sunset our Regiment gained a
position on high ground immediately
south-west of the Fort, and a mile west
of the breast-works. ; WTe slept on our
arms that night ; but slept soundly
heeding not the fall of snow which thre-v
over us a white- covering. The pickets
of the two armies were firing at each
other all the night; yet our boys heeded
them not, for they slept as. soundly as
though they had been ten thousand miles
distant from war's dread tumult.:
Early Saturday morning the battle re
3 r r t
L-uinuiencea. cannons in iront and on
our left belched forth their balls, and
shot, and shell, and bade roaring defiance
to the enemy. V olley after .volley of
musketry in front and on our far right
reverberated among the hills, and bullets
went whistling through the branches of
the trees. Early in the moraine our
Reciment was summoned into line of
o :
battle, but was not ordered forward un
til ten o'clock. In the meantime news
came that the 11th Illinoes was cut to
pieces; that the 17th Ky., (Union,) had
fired upon our own men ; that the 30th
Illinois had fled without firing a shot;
that two of our field pieces had been
captured by the enemy, and that another
Regiment or two had beea driven back.
Then the Nebraska 1st was ordered for
ward, and the men marched with alaerity.
After a half-hour's march we reached
the ground, and formed irr battle line on
the right of two ikld pieces, a portion
of Taylor's (Chicago) Battery.
We had not moTe than formed in line,
when we were attacked by three rebel
Regiments one a Regiment of Texan
Rangers, a Mississippi Regiment, and
a Kentucky (rebel) Regiment. We
have since learned of themselves that
they came fully determined to capture
th Battery, and exterminate its support
ers. But they "reckoned without their
host."- They did not dream of meeting
soch stern and unflinching- epposers as
the men of the Nebraska Regiment.
For half an hour we bade them wel
come with a ceaseless storm of leaden
hail. A continued stream of fire flashed
along our line. It seemed as if the men
were armed with Colt's revolving rifles,
so steady was the fire. The men loaded
their pieces as if by magic. Not a mo
ment's delay was perceived by the mot
accute ear I The aim was none too high
nor low ; and the shots were very des
tructive, for three hundred or more of the
enemy fell. The enemy soon fled, re
pulsed by the little Nebraska Regiment !
No Regiment but ours was engaged at
the time; and, supported by the two
field pieces, we did the work most ad
mirably. The Regiment did not flinch a
particle ; and company 'C gained ground
forward during the action! It was in
the most dangerous position, along with
companies "D" and "I," forming the left
of the second battalion, nearest the can
non, where the enemy's grape shot, ball,
and shell were hurled the thickest. Cap
tain Majors, Lieut. Berger and your cor
respondent, had the good fortune to
dodge some of the large, leaded messen
gers of death, else they might now b
numbered on the list of tilled, or that o
mortally wounded. But tney were
spared for another fight; perhaps for .a
field of more refulgent glory fu the f u
ture. Corporal Buckley was slightly
wounded in the thigh by a buckshot.
Our Regiment lost but four killed, and
had fourteen wounded.
Soon after the firing ceased, Genera
Wallace rode along in front of our line
and praised us, saying: Boys, you have
done finely : you. drove them back, and
you shall be heard from. The artillerists
say they coultf scarcely hear their orders.
our firing was so fast and steady. Old
solders say they never heard such steady
firing ; and the enemy, after being ta
ken prisoners, testiSed that they thought
they were fired upon by ten thousand
mea!
We slept on our arms another night
expecting a terrible battle on the morrow.
when we expected; to storm the breast
works. Ihe babbath morning came
and we were marched, around to- the
South, of the breastworks,, where the
fighting had been most destructive during
Saturday morning and evening, and from
which point we expected to march, fight
ing our way over the breastworks, and
into the town of Dover. But morning
had not far advanced when the new
came that the enemy had surrendered
unconditionally, and the fighting was a
an end.
The particulars you have heard ere
this reaches you. I would not seek to
eulogize our officers, but acting Brigadier
General Thayer, Col. McCord and Cap
tain Majors stood near and spoke brave
words and calm, to the men. - Captain
Majors urged his mea tordo .their ,vholei
duty, and stood near by.duri,ngthe battle
Lieut. Berger acted well his part, and
desetvesa share of praise. He has a
trophy for the Editor of the- Advertiser
in the shape of the murderous bowie
knife, which he will will express soon.
Major Livingston told the men of the
second battallion, when they saw the en
emy, to give them the cold steel ; and
they would have done it.
We marched to this place on the I8th
inst., and expect to go to Alabama; but
where, I know not.

February 21st, 1S62.
Friend Furnas i You are doubtless a
ware of the surrender of Fr. Donaldson
before this,, and most of the rnatters of
interest attending it. Unfortunately
for so we regard it our cavalry were not
engaged in its capture, though our Ne
braska Battalion were on the west side
of the Tennessee river, threatened by all
the force at Columbus, Memphis and all
the region between us. 1200 sesesh cav
alry were but a few miles from us, and
an attack at any time would not have sur.
prised us at all. The day before we
came over, 60 of our men engaged 400,
which met accidentally, and routed them.
I was not a little surprised as day after
day wore away in the capture of Fort
Donaldson, and no attack teas made on
us, either to rt-take this point , or to draw
off some ef tht forces- at Ft. Donaldson,
and by that means aid their forces which
were so heroically maintaining their
ground, but we Tooked in vain. Our men
were continually on- the scout, and a part
of them are several miles in the country
all the rime watching the movements of
the enemy. Since the battle several re g-
imeats have returned to this point, also a
battery of cannon 6 pieces. Several
of oar Nemahaians from the 1st Nebras
ka, now over the river at Ft. Henry, came
over to see us to-day. They were in the
thickest of the fight at Ft. Denaldson,
and are admitted by all to have acquitted
themselves nobly daring the seige, loos
ing but 4 in killed, 2 of whom are under
stood to have been shot accidentally by
some of cur own forces. The number of
prisoners are believed to-day to have been
m all about 22,000. The reports from
other points are favorable, and there
seems to be a belief on the part of many
that we are nearer the end than seme
suppose. Which ever way it may be se
sesh has received a dreadful blow. -The
provisions and other stores, &c, captured
at Ft. Henry and Donaldson will aid our
Commissary Department at these points
materially. I was told to-day by one of
the Surgeons, that it is believed "Floyd"
was shot by his own men while attempt
ing to make his escape in a boat, during
the siege at Ft. Donaldson. Many of
the captured are very indignant at him,
and declare they would kill him them
selves if they had a chance, if cur men ;
did or had not. I am credibly informed
that the Nebraska regiment met the
Texan Rangers and killed 65 of them ;
that after the surrender they threw their
arms into the river, declaring they should
never fall into the hands of the Yankees.
Their flag is now floating a few rods from
my tent, under the st&rs and stripes. It
is a fine banner the accompanying cut
may give you some idea of it,
through other intelligence we learn
that Capt. Dutelfor, company A, Fre
mont Hussars, ia among the dead.
Col. Boyd will assume command at
Holla, and Col. Wyman. with the gal
lant Thirteenth, will join the army
forthwith.
