K" A corresporxJent.of the Indianapolis Journal, who, we presume, was recently one of the editors of that paper, writes a letter from our city which contains some mistakes we feel called upon to correct. The main effort of the whole effusion seems to be to create the impression that our merchants are so mercenary that they would vouch for any man's loyalty to obtain a permit to sell him a small bill of goods, and that Eyansville " has no just reason to complain of the war and hard times." This loose style of writing is quite common now-a-days, and our traveling "Bohemi ans," who spend one Right in a place, feel fully qualified to speak not only of its present, but i lso of its past and future prospects. 9 ail this correspondent spent a little more time in our city, he would not have committed the blunder of estimating the prosperity of this city by the quantity of goods sold by a few houses. Nor would he have made the foolish statement that 'daily and tri-weekly lines of packets are re-established between thi3 port, Paducah and Cairo."' The prosptiily. of Evansvil'.e centres in tier manufacturing iutciems, which, during the past Summer, Fail and Winter months, have bet-n completely prostrated. When our foundries, planing mills, machine shops, potteries, and building establishments are in full blast, our city may be said to prosper. When these industrial establishments are silent, our city languishes. It is true, we bflieve that some of our merchants have done a thriving business, but the mas3 of our people have been out of work, and compelled to resort to all kindd of expedients to honorably obtain the necessaries of lite. We trust the Journal's corresposdence may visit our cily again after the supremacy of the constitution an. I laws of our country has bee J established, aud everything moves in its accustomed channels. We will then show him a prosperity to which the present condition of things can no more be compared than the desert of Sahara to an Illiuois prairie. Ja?The torpedoes in the Tennessee river were discovered through the talkativeness of a female. A party of the "Jessie Scouts" visited a farm house in the vicinity where about fifty females had collected for safety. They were greatly alarmed at the appearance of the " Lincolnites," but assurance being given them that they should not be hurt, they entered into conversation with the scouts, in the course of which one of tbem remarked that her husband was a Captain in the rebel army at Fort Henry. "By about to-morrow night, Madam," repliad one of the scouts, " there will be no Fort Henry our gunboats will dispose of it." " Not a bit of it," exclaimed the lady, ' they will be blown up before thv get pa the ielaruLi! mr rnail tbo ounoonj nf the scouts aod they compelled the enthusiastic matron to divulge all sb knew tiaJer penalty of taking her to the " Liwulnitt-a " camp as a prisoner. - Having ascertained the location of the torpedoes, Capt. Phelps quietly took them up to prevent any and all accidents. tSF Our Navy that was the pride of the war of 1812, has lost ia this war nothiag of its ancient renown.

teST" Tbe telegraph informs us, it 13 believed at Cairo, that the rebels are evacuating Columbus. We Lave not the least doubt of it, though we regret it, because, if they remain there a week longer, they will be captured in spite of the formidable batteries they have been erecting for

so many months. An excursion to Mem phis next month, is a probable event, and before April, at furthest, Tennessee will be again a loyal State, protected by the Stars and Stripes. This rebellion, like all others, assumed gigantic, proportion at first, but no sooner does tha Goverament succeed in checking its advance than the leaders are deserted by their followers, and the usurpers are left to brave as best they may the coming storm. The sight of the Old Flag in Nashville will open the eyes, cot only of the deluded Tennesseeans, but of the whole South, to the truth that the American Government is powerful, not only to protect its friends, but to punish its foes. The ball is moving on. The rehelliou is in its death throes. The Burnside Expedition. CAPTURE OF ROANOKE ISLAND. PARTICULARS OF THE BATTLE. (Correspondence of the Cincinnati Gaiette. Baltimore, February 14. 'e at last have definite news from the Burnside Expedition, confirming its glorious victory. The intelligence caused great rejoicing here, more especially for the reason that the triumph was gained without so great slaughter on either side as reported by the gasconading "Dixie" journals. It is enough, and better, that we have gotten their whole army prisoners and possess their entire armaments. The fallowing are the particulars : The battle was commenced on Friday by the Federal gunboats attacking a Confederate battery at a place called "Pork Point." It consisted of five guns, aud successfully maintained itself throughout the day until dusk, when firing ceased on both sides. On Saturday tbe attack was renewed by the Federal gunboats, aad the fortification was greatly weakened at au early hour. The contest gradually grew more vigorous. The Ninth New York Zouaves, after some time, made a landing, when they charged upon the work with determined vigor, encountering the Richmond Blues as they advanced, engaging them as they approached at the point of tbe bayonet. Dispersing this company, afier a severe struggle, they pushed forward aud succeed ed iu capturing the battery. The Federal gunboats at this juncture moved gradually up the Powhattan Sound, until nearly opposite Fort Barto, where they found qiiie a formidable obstruction in the chats, ! ! '-"-ed thoe by the Confederates. 1 . ..j .. the character of a chevaux ue lime, l. iuiei of piles, logs, brushwood, aud trees, which had effectually closed the channel. With indomitable energy the Federal soldiers and boats weat to work in removing this obstruction, wh.ch, after a short time, they succeeded iu doing, so that their boats were enabted to gel thiough. This accomplished, it was not long until they engaged Fort Barto, pouricg into it a perfect shower of shot and shells. Whilst tjis was going on they also attacked the Confederate fleet at the same time, which was under command of Com. Lynch. The contest was quite spirited. The result was a scattering and demolition of the Confederate gunboats. An immense shell from the Union gunboat Sonthfield, discharged by a gun aimed by Lieut. Tillittson, (the Union post-gun,) struck the flag ship of the Confederate mosquito squadron, passing through her et.gine room and magazine, penetrating also through the bottom ot the vessel, and exploding underneath in the water. A moment afterward, scarcely a vestige of the ship could be seen. She was literally shivered to atoms, .iod it was supposed all on board had perished. If Commodore Lynch was on bonrd at the time, he must either have been instanffy killed or'drowned, though some believe he had made his way to the shore previous to the disaster. Fragments of the vessel lay piecemeal all round, and many bodies floated upon the water, whilst others seemed to be swimming toward land. The Federal gunboat Tempest now steamed up to the Confederate gunboat Ellis, striking her with her boom aport quarter, doing great injury to the hitter. Being thus almost transfixed, the soldiers and others on board the Union gunboat rushed on the deck of their enemy, armed with cutlasses, handspikes, short swords, and other weapons, under command of their officers. Here a desperate conflict ensued, which ended in victory to the Federals. It is described as a terrible scene. Men were knocked down on the Confederate vessel, and their brains liy scattered on deck. Many jumped overboard and were drowned, while a few are supposed to have swam ashore. The boat wag finally captured, with what Confederates were left alive. A Federal gunboat gave chase to the Fanny," a Confederate gunboat, formerly captured from the United States. Finding herself too hotly pursued, the possessors set her on fire, and jumped overboard to make shore, which, it ia thought, some succeeded lAincr, while others were drowned. the light on the island was dp.inerat whilst il lasted, but of short duration. After carry iDg the battery at " Pork Point," the advance of General Foster's brigade made up the main road to the center of the island. Proceeding thus, the General deployed a regiment as an advance guard, and after marching over very bad roads, for two or three miles, tbey suddenly came face to face with a brigade of North Carolinians. The remainder of the Federal brigad now came up, when the contending parlies were withiu rifle range. The North Carolinians delivered a volley, which the Federal troops took with the loss of only one killed, and ten or twelve wouuded. The Confederates, it appears, aimed too high, otherwise the result must have proved more destructive. The Federal troops were next ordered to fire, which they are represented to have done, with much coolness. This resulted iu killing teu Confederates and wounding some twenty or thirty more A cessation of hostilities now took place, as if by general impulse, when suddenly a Confederate staff officer appeared on Ihe right, bearing a flag of truce. He rode up aud delivered it to Gen. Foster, who quickly rao over its contents. The bearer ot this .nag inquired of .General Foster if he would allow his commander twenty-four hours to consider terms of surrender. General Ko?ter quickly replied : " No. Nothing but an unconditional burrender w iil satisfy tuy Government, and I give you fifteen minuter, after you have arrived within your lines, to say definitely and positively, what you will do." A short time sul-dcqnetitly the same Confederate officer returned, bearing a flag ot truce, and informed Sen. Foster that his

commander was ready to surrender unconditionally. Without further ceremonies the Confederates advanced and delivered up their arm3, and became prisoners of war. It was with difficulty that Captains and officers ot equal rank in the Federal brigade could be found to receive the swords of their captives. This Confederate brigade, it appearr, had been marching toward Pork Point Battery to re-enforce it, which they did not know had been attacked and reduced. Gen. Foster then marched on with bis brigade, and soon came to an open space, comprising some twenty or more fine farms. In the center of this he described a superior camping ground, laid out and erected by the enemy, of sufficient capacity to accommodate twenty thousand troop?, with huts and cabina enough for ten thousand soldiers. At the end of each avenue had been dug wells, which contained excellent water. A large amount of stores, provisions, armaments, &c, were in Lhis fortress. It affords very comfortable quarters.

Oa Sunday, the following day, the brigaJe continued its march to the furthest I point of tbe island lying north. During this movement three squads of Confederates were picked up straggling about through the woods and fields. Now and then a company of the enemy on picket duty was surprised and captured. " A masked battery, mounting two guns' and a howitzer, were captured in this march. It opened briskly, but fired too high and did no harm. An assault was made immediately upon it, and it was finally taken at the point of the bayonet, though only a few withstood the final assault, seeing they were overpowered. This capture was made by the Twenty-fourth Massachusetts regiment. The reconnoisance of the island, in a military point of view, was now nearly finished, but when the steamer Stars and Stripes left on Wednesday morning, numbers of straggling Confederates were being brought in from the swamps and elsewhere. Many had flown to the woods, who were also being pursued. Some were found in bog pits, where they bad sunk nearly to their waists, and extricated. Thus far when the steamer left, as near as conld be ascertained, about twentyeight hundred prisoners . had fallen into the h&nds of the Federals, and it was believed the number would be increased to something over three thousand, probably four thousand when the entire island is thoroughly searched. A good many are believed to have been drowned in at tempting to make their escape, either by swimming or in small boats to tbe main land. In this expedition General Burnside has captured the whole of Roanoke Island, destroyed Commodore Lynch'9 Confederate fleet, taking six batteries and a complete six-pounuer tiem battery, making in all sixty guns, also between seven and eight thousand small arms. There were nearly four tbounaud small arms, many ot them Enfield rifles, secured in the pa9t three months, in store and not used, amongst the prizes. A vast number of small arms, in eluding pistols, swords, &c, were likewise obtained, together with a large quantity of provenuer, ate. uver seven hundred horses, wau Diggage, oaggage wagons, ambulances, camp equipage, &c, were also taken, None of the Federal gunboats were in jured to any extent. Those most damaged can be repaired in a lew hours. The Federal loss is, as far as ascertained, only 2!S killed and 80 wounded. The Confederate loss is also much smaller than at first supposed from previous ac counts. It is so far known to be only 20 Killed ana y.J wounded. It is believed that twelve to fifteen hundred af the Confederates are still upon the island, 111a in the swamps, woods, bogs. &c, who can scarcely escape being captur ed. It is well ascertained that very few of theru, probably not more than one to two hundred, got off the island. The Federal gunboats had effectually cut off all possibility of retreat from Nag's neau. Col. O. Jennings Wise was shot through the leg just above the kn6e, and badly wounded in the hip, when gallantly urging nis men ine tsiues; on, at tne nead ot his command. When he fell wounded, his troops retreated, carrying hira with them. Himself and some others were placed in a canoe or batteau, and an effort made to get them across to land,- but being observed by a company of Zauaves, they were ordered to come back. Refusing Co do so, the Zouaves fired, one of their balls passing through Col. Wise's breast, causing a mortal wound. Seeing resistance useless, the Confederates in the boat returned with him and delivered themselves up. Colonel Wise was kiudly taken care of, and surgioal aid immediately procured for hira. He appeared calm, but suffered intense pain, though not seemingly conscious hi3 wound was fatal. He epoke in a firm, friendly tone to the surgeon, and others near by, asking if they would not allow him to be sent home until bis wounds recovered. The surgeon seeing it impossible for him to live, replied " yes, you can have all you want." He rapidiy grew weak, and expired on the following morning. His body has been carefully attended to, and will be delivered to his friends on calL Another fine looking young Confederate captain, whose name I could not learn, was found on the field mortally wounded. A bullet had struck him on the upper part of tbe forehead. He was lying with his hands preSdinu upon tb wound. Awl leuuereu una, and he freely expressed kind feelings towards those thus soothing his afflictions. Numerous painful and touching incidents are related of the wounded and dying, which were enough to melt hearts of stone. Amongst the Federals killed is Colonel Russell of the 1st Massachusetts, who fell dead from his horse while leading bis men iu a charge against the fort. , Lieut. Col. Mentsil, of D Epineul's Zouaves, of New York, bis regiment not .being in the engagement, was determined to fight, aud volunteering, went out alone with a musket, lie fired a number of rounds, and being a conspicuous mark, received a volley which brought him low in death, pierced with some twenty balls. ' Most of the Federal loss was of privates. The Twenty-first Massachusetts, Ninth New York, and Twenty-fourth Massachusetts Regiments suffered roost severely. It ia believed the immediate object of Gen. Harnaide is to possess points in North Carolina where the railroads can tie commanded, lie considrrs Norfolk and Portsmouth now with the advantages of holding Roanoke Island entirely within bis control. . The wounded of the both armies are feeing carefully attended to. Energetic -fforts were making to discover aud lt-liefc nil who may have been wouuded, and s-f-retd themselves in tbe wool.'), marshes and swutnns, where many had been found, brought into camp, and their wounds drrssed by both the Federal and Confederate surgeons. Ali indications show General Burnside to be preparing lor other active aud important demonstrations. P. D.

.tgg-The Richmond Examiner thinks that Jeff. Davis does not understand the revolution, nor appreciate - its demands. : It suggests that the French knew bow to" conduct a revolution, for they removed incompetent . men by chopping off their headsu Guillotining the public men who leaned back against the harness, their 7revolution succeeded, and owed its success solely to its excesses. They passed to the promised land through a red sea of blood." This Rolsperan hint is perfectly in character with the debauched and demoralized condition to which society is reduced, when it allows its best interests to be trifled with by demagogues and political charlatans such as now rule the people of the States in rebellion.

8Ia The Indiana troops engaged in tuFort Donelson victory were the 11th, Col. George F. JlcGinnis, and the 23d, Col. Wir. L- Sanderson, of Gen. Lew.

James M. Smith. ' It is probable that two companies of the 19th Infantry and some Indiana regiments heretofore attached to Gen. Buell's Green river column, were also present. Col. Hovey, of the 24th was on the march from Missouri, but probably did not reach there in time to take par. Good News from the 25tli Regiment. I We are pleased to state that a dispatch was received in this city yesterday, stating that all the officers of tbe 25th Regiment are safe and sound. Tbe numerous friends of the gallant 25th will learn with great satisfaction that the boys are safe, although they bore a glorious part in the great victory of the 16th. 6" We learn by a dispatch from Cairo yesterday, that Clay. Stinson, formerly a resident of this city, was among the captured rebels at Fort Donelson, aod is now en route for the North with 15,000 other prisoners. CCiF" We received a call yesterday from Lieut. Sanders of the 24th Regiment Indiana Volunteers. He leaves for Fort Donelson to join bis regiment to-day, on the Charley Bowen. He requests all who wish to send letters or small packages to friends in that regiment, to leave them at the American House. Our dispatches of this morning announce the capture of two .more rebel regiments. General Curtis has also secured a large number of prisoners.
