The News,
Nothing of interest yet from Island No.
'10. J3j:h sides are still in italu quo.
Various reports are in circulation almost
daily, that the Island hasbeen evacuated,
but without foundation. Our opinion is,
that there will te a tremendous clash of
arms from Island 10 along down to Mem
phis, and if there is fight in the rebels,
a bloody and decisive battle will be fought.
Tbe Nebraska Militia.
Next Monday is the cay fixed by an
act passed at the last Session of the Leg
islature for the citizens of each county to
meet at-their respective county seats and
enroll'their Dames and form themselves
into companies.
- The - 12ih Section of the act reads as
follows:'
Sec. 12. The provisions of this act
shall not be so construed as to apply to
any county or counties w here company or
companies are already formed, or to any
regiment already organized, so as to re
move any officer or. officers from the of
fices he. or they may hold.
We understand this section to mean,
simply, that the law is not intended to in
terfere with volunteer organizations al
ready in existence, and that "all the white
male residents of the Territory, between
the ages IS and 45" (except clergy
men, rost. masters, county clerks, county
treasurers' justices of the peace, consta
bles and persons not of sound mind, or
those physically disabled,) who are not
members of organizations already, shall
proceed to enroll themselves and form
companies which will afterward be formed
into Regiments by the Governor.
We have seen no orders from the Maj.

TIic War Tax for Nebraska.
We see by the Congressional Globe
that an amendment to the Tax Bill has
passed the-House diverting the Legisla
tive appropriation for Nebraska to the
payment of the war tax apportioned to
this Territory. The Tax Bill being under )
consideration in Committee of the Whole j
Mr- HOOPER. I move the following
amendment, to come in as a proviso at
the end of the section :
Provided, That the sum of S19.312,
direct tax, laid upon the Territory of Ne
braska by said act shall be paid and satis
fied by deducting said amount from the
appropriation for legislative expenses of
said Territory cf Nebraska for the year
ending 20th cf June, 1SG3, and do fur
ther claim shall be made by said Terri
tory for legislative expenses for said year.
After considerable debate between
Messrs. Hooper, Mallory. Stevens, Daily,
Tlc,r,oi a vi U'im irif nmendment was
ALUUtil tlWWt
adopted by a.very large vote. We feel
quite sure this will meet the approbation
of the people' .of Nebraska, and hope the
Senate will agree to the amendment.
A private letter from Washington re
ceived bv t:s a day or two since, in speak
ing of this matter, says : "Your Dele

much attention and deserves great credit,
for what he has accomplished. Morion

riant Trees ana Sbrnbs.
It is really astonishing, notwithstand
ing the hue and cry of "scarcity of tim
ber," in this country, that so little atten
tion i pail to putting out trees and
shrubs about residences, both in country
and town, and also the raising cf timber
on farms. We know hundreds of farm
ers in both Nebraska and Kansas, who
have been farming out on the open prai
rie for four, five and six years, acd- aot a
tree seed planted, or even a few cot
tonwocds set out about the house to break
off the winter winds, and afford a refresh
ing shade in summer. There can be no
apology for such negligence. As Spring
is upon us again we take this occasion
lQ urge this matter upon farmers and
residents in town. A. few bushels of
walnuts, coffeenuts, or young eoltonwoods
which cost but the trouble of going to
the bottoms ,and gathering them, planted
and set out, will, in a very few years,
afford all the timber any farmer wants for
both fuel and ftneing purposes, and the
time in starting, never missed. The
value, too, of the whole farm, is increa
sed, at least fifty per cent, by reason of
having a growth of young timber on it.
The residence wants adorning and
Drotectinir irorn wind and sun. natis
more refreshing, when traveling over
- V w
our prairies, on a hot Summer day, than
to find a nice grove of trees about the
farmer's houses? In the winter, too
they afford protection from our blustering
winds. And then it looks so neat and
years, making from seven to thirteen
years, or from three to four times as long
as he need to wait for grapes.
We certainly have varieties enough of
comfortable. We repeat there is no a
pology for a lack of these things; and if
our farmers would but go to work at the
business with a will, a few years, com
paratively speaking, will find more tim
ber on these prairies than he will know
what to do with.
As to adorning the residences, either
in town or couniry. If unable to pur
chase from the nurseries, go to the woods
where any variety and quantity of young
trees suitable for shade, and flowering
shrubs may be had. Two matters, how
ever, pay attention to. Take up ten
derly and put out carfully. Dont pound,
bruise and mangle the roots in taking up;
and before setting out, prune both roots
and too liberally; the roots to induce
4 -
new fibers to start, and the tops that the
roots may not be overtaxed the first sea
son, and to protect their being blown
down, before the roots properly take
hold of the earth. Dig for each a large
hole, that the roots may have their nat
ural position. Then stake for protec
tion against winds, and your work is
done, and will be of incalculable worth j
to you in very few years.

Army Correspondence of the Nebraska Advertiser.
From tbe Nebraska First.
Steamer John Raixe,
Tennessee Riveb, March loth
Fort Donelson now, does not end the
War, nor the movements of the Nebras
ka Regiment. Onwacd is the cry, and
forward goes the Regiment, marching
through many a flood, and panting for
many a field, not of pain, but pleasure.
On tha 6th of March we marched on
board this steamer, expecting our desti
nation to be Florence, Alabama, or some
oiher fimous battle-field this side; but
now it is the middle of the month, and
we have not seen Florence nor the field
of battle; neither have we disembarked,
except for the space of two nights and a
day, of which more anon.
When in camp, reports are rife the
whole day long, and walking bulletins go
their regular rounds without a carrier.
Reports innumerable are indigenuous to
the soil a soldier treads upon, and with
out some theme to talk upon, the soldier
would not be in his element. Although
some may think that the place where
shelh burst, grape-shot fly, and bullets
whiz, is the only spot a soldier loves, and
to be there ia to be in his original ele
ment; yet J tako it that the volunter, as
a general thing, would much rather talk
of battle, than be one who takes a part in
dealing with the messengers of death.
In vain have I looked into Illinois pa
pers, and papers cf the east, for honora
ble mention of our Regiment, for the part
it bore in the great battle at Donelson.
None are mentioned but Illinois Regi
ments. According to those chronicles,
Illinois Regiments did all the fighting,
and accordingly they get all the praise.
There were but five regiments on the
field that did the hard and telling fight.
Those were the 1st Nebraska, 11th In
diana, Sth Missouri, 2d and 7th Iowa
Regiments, and yet they are scarcely
mentioned in the Eastern journals. I
suppose they can bide their time, and a
future generation may do them justice.
Although we got aboard the steamer
on the 6th, yet we did not leave Fort
Henry until the evening of the 8th.
There are about eighty steamers on. the
the river, laden with troops destined for
some points unknown as yet. We hear
that these troops are now under command
of General Smith, and that General Grant
is superseded. We alsohear that Manas
sas has fallen before the prowess of our
soldiers in the east, and the rebels lost
sixty thousand in killed, wounded and
prisoners. But we hear so much and so
often, that we do not know what to be
lieve, as false reports are abundant.
I have heard that the Curtis Horse has
been in a small engagement sines we left
Fort Henry, but the report may be un
true.
The scenery along the river from the
Fort, so far ns we have proceded, is much
better than it is below. The high bluff
one passes now and then, put hirn in re
membrance of the rivers of the North
and of the "Big Muddy" in particular
I am not favorably impressed yet with
the land of chivalry, butternut-colored
rarments. and blacks. The .North is
still my favorite, and shall be my home
Give me the land where liberty is en
joyed as it should be, and give me the
prairies wide, where the free wild wind
riot in reveling, and the man is as free
as the winds that whistles. Give me the
clime whose skies are blue, and whose
sons are freemen, hardy, and brave, for
there is my home and all that I love.
On the evening of the 13th, we reached
this point, from Savannah, distant five
miles. At midnight we had orders to
disembark with three day's rations in
haversacks, and all ready for marching.
By one o'clock, a. m., our Regiment was
on the move, and in a half hour the rain
commenced falling, "small drops, but
thick and fast," increasing in thickness
and velocity until the torrent ran. Thro
darkness, mud and rain we toiled till
da.vn of day, wearied and sleepy withal,
and when we arrived at the corner, the
right winjT filJ f'gkt, and iLalcft vrin
left, and at a double quick step surround
ed the little town of Adamsville ; but the
game had escaped. At midnight they
heard we were coming, and suddenly
they left, fearing to meet the Northern
ers, as they call us. We remained a day
on picket, and started back at 10 o'clock
the ensuing, having taken several pris
oners in the meantime. Two nights were
we without sleep, and the hardest march
ing we have vet had.
To-morrow, at 6 a. m., the Regiment
goes on picket for twelve hours, and we
may have a skirmish. More Again.

indirect high tariff.
WAR NEWS.
THE LATEST UNION VICTORY AT
WINCHESTER.
Winchester, March 25.
On Saturday at 2 P. M., the enemy
showed themselves a mile and a half
from Winchester. The enemy con
sisted of 500 ofAshby's cavalry and
two guns. They drove in our pickets
and then skirmished with the Michi
gan cavalry and a portion of the Ma
ryland first. Gen Shields brought up
his forces, fired several rounds of shell,
drove them back and took several
prisoners. Gen. Shelds was wounded
in the arm by the first fire of the ene
my. Jackson had been informed by the
inhabitants that the town was deserted
by the Union troops and he advanced
to retake it.
General Shield's forces slept on
their arms Saturday night. Sunday
morning at sunrise, Jackson being res
inforced, attacked General Shields,
Kerustown,-three miles distant. The
enemy s force consisteuU-Ot ouo-ofi- - - -
were of General ShieldsY division ex
clusively. At half past 10 the enemy
made a feint on our left, commanded
by Acting Brigadier General Sullivan
opening a heavy fire of artillery, while
the real attack was directed against
our right with the object of flanking it
Gen. Kimble, commanded on the
right, where. the heaviest fighting was
done. The enemy were strongly
posted in thft woods, and behind a
stone wall and rebel artillery was
posted on an eminence on both sides
of their left wing. Our whole artille
ry force was engaged, consisting of
four batteries, twenty-four pieces in
all. The contest raged furiously until
3 p. m., the fighting being done chiefly
by the artillery and musketry at a
range of not more than three or four
hundred vards, and often much less.
The rebel infantry opposite our po
sition now cnerged from the woods,
and attempted to capture Damn's bat
tery by a charge. The first effort was
nearly successful, but the heavy dis
charge of grape compelled them to re
tire in confusion. A second and
weaker attempt likewise failed, and
the enemy fell back with heavy loss
behind the stone parapet.
Gen. Tvler now ordered his brigade
to charge the enemy's batteries on the
left, and a most deadly encounter fol
lowed. Twice our men receded under
the storm, but in the third effort they
.routed the rebels with tremendous
slaughter. Our loss in these struggles
is heavy.
Several attempt was made by the
enemy to rally their right wing failed
and to add to their confusion an Irish
battallion of 150 men was brought for
ward and ordered to fire upon the
Union troops. They refused, and a
rebel regiment immediately drove this
gallant little band forward and could
not compell them to fire upon us.
Forty corpses of the 150 afterwards
strewed the field.
Washington, March 20.
The citizens of Gallatin, Tennessee,
a town which has been decidedly dis
loyal, met in a town meeting recently
and were addressed by Bailie Peyton,
Sr., a loyal man, and voted to petition
for a post office there, and expressed
their willingness to return to their
allegiance. A post office will be es
tablished ther6 in a few4 days, accor
ding to their petition.
John Leggett has been appointed
Postmaster at Nashville. He wro t
some of the best articles against se.
cession during the agitation of that
subject in Tennesse, and was one of
the refugees from that State, but now
returns in an official capacity.
A special agent of the Post Office
Department, acting on the Tennessee
and Kentucky borders", writes as fol
lows : "It is gratifying whers I have
been to find there is a strong desire
for the re-establishment of the mails,
and a willinguess among the people to
return to their allegiance. .

The fight was kept up until noon
when a charge made by the Ohio in

them back half a mile, when the ene
my got their guns in position again in
a dense woods, flanked by infantry

engagement ensued, when Gen Shields
ordered Col. Thayer to turn their left
flank, which was executed by our
troops but with considerable loss, the
enemy being nrctected by a stone
ledge.
The Eighty-fourth Pennsylvania and
Nineteenth Iowa chargen their centre
and the fight became general. Col.
Murry, of the Eighty-fourth Pennsyl
vania was killed. The enemy retired
slowly, bringing their guns to bear
at every opportunity. Our men rushed
forward with a yell, when a panic en
sued among the enemy. Our troops
followed and drove them until dark,
capturing eight guns, three cassions,
muskets, equipments, &c, innumerable

Gen. Williams's first brigade, Col.

Shields. Gen. Banks, who was on the
way to Washington Sunday, returned
and assumed command. In the mean
time Gen. Shields's division pursued
enemy beyond Newtou, shelling them
the whole way.
Jackson s men were perfectly dis
organized, and beyond control. They
threw oveboary tho dead and wounded
to lighten the wagons.
It is noticed that nearly all the reb
els wounded were shot in the head or
brcat, testifying the superiority of our
marKsmen. me loss on our siue was
chiefly Pennsylvania, Onio and Indi
ana troops. Those who conveyed the
false intelligence to General Jackson,
causing this disaster to the rebels,
have a heavy weight of guilt to shoul
der. It was evidently known to many
in tho town that Jackson was ap-
hing, from the holiday attire
and buoyancy of spirits among the men
and women here.
General Shield's command being
scrocned from observation on the east
side of the town, led the informants to
believe that all our troops wefe evacu
ating, and that Jackson could enter
unmolested. Good judges say the
enemy 'g I033 is over 200 killed, 500
wounded, add we have eight hundred
prisoners, including an aid to Jackson
Our loss is about 05 killed and 125
wounded.
On Sunday morning the rebels re
ceived reinforcements under General
Garnett amounting to 500 men. The
Union forces did not exceed 10,000,

The Michigan cavairv led the- advance
