Eighteen hundred prisoners from Island No. 10. leave here on the cars for tho North this morning. C. Folsom. ADDITIONAL VIA ST. LOUI. St. Louis, April 10. The Democrat I has the following from Cairo in relation to tho battle at Pittsburgh Landing, Tennes see: The disposition of the Confederates in the attack was in tho form of a letter V. The point penetrated Prentiss's division, which consisted of raw recruits who could not stand the shock, and fell back, causing great confusion among our troops on the left. This charge would hate resulted in turning onr left wig, and the capture of a large porlion of Prentiss's and Sherman's divisions, but' for the gunboats Tyler and Lf-xington. which beat the enemy back by firing into his ranks shot and shell. Great blame is attached to General Prentiss an 1 Sherman, who. it is said, had no scouts ouf, and nly a very small picket guard. Infoimation cf the approach of the rebel army is said to have been given to those Generals by persons from the country, bnt it wis disregarded, and no preparations made to receive the enemy. SJieiman was on the left; Prentiss was next to him. Generals Hurl hurt an! McClernand occupied the centre; Gen. Sherman held the right. The onset of the rebels was terrible. It was received first by Pnntiss and Sherman. By 10 o'clo k a, m.. onr whole line, from right to left, was engage I. Our line was fiive miles back of Pittsburgh, and we were diiven back to the river. The slaughter wa great, and officers who participated at Fort Donelson. say that tltc fight in no way compares with this in fierceness. The gunboats continued firing all of Sunday night. At 4 o'clock Sunday afternoon. Gen. li,lcl1 marched to i tttsburgn irom Njaak'" command reached the river oonosite Pitts ! burgh, and rent the air with cheers.

With this reinforcement the fight which time a force of 4U.UU0 men from Buell's army had crossed the river at Pittsburgh. One ravine between Hurlburt's and Prentiss's divisions is said to have been literally tilled with dead rebels. Rebel prisoners say they had orders to i kill as many of our officers a- possible. Their ofti ers fought in disgmse, ours in their uniforms, which was the cause of their being distinguished, and so many of them killed. the Wounded atpittsBÜRGH. LIST or tiioe Anmvr.D AT KVANSVlLLli.

The Reappearance of the Merrimac Her Operation in Hampton Roads She Captures Tkit Federal Prizes. Forts ss Monro. Anril 11. 2 p. x. The return of pleasant weather to-day . brought the Merrimac. as was generally an ticipated. She had been seen three days ago under steam at Craney Island, and aa the evening of yesterday promised that the atornhad exhausted itself, few were sur-
priced this morning at the announcement th-t she w.is in sight coming dsjwn. The alarm gun was fired at twenty minutes past 7 o'clock, and as soon as the appearance of tho Merritnac waa generally known, the docks, beach and ramparts of the Fortress, and other points commanding a view, were crowded with sj)ectators. Tho Merritnac, after showing herself beyond Seweli'l Point, appeared to be heading this way. She did not long continue on the course, however, but turned toward James river, followed by six other gunboats, which had come round the point in bet company. Of the luttor, the Jamestown and Yorktown were recognized . The others were supposed to be the Raleigh and Treasurer. Arriving at a joint midway between Sewall's Point and Newport News Point, and near tho place where the French war vessel Gasconadie and Cabinet and the English steamer Rinaldo had
i placed themselvca early in the morning. he whole licet come to a stop, while the Jamestown, followed at some distance by the Yorktown and a small tug, continued on her course. The intention of tha Jamestown was not at first perceived. As she came around, leaving Newport News on her left, it was soon tha her object was to capture two brigs and a schooner, which weie anchored near the shore, about two miles from the Point. This was done without the slightest difficulty: and the assistance of the small tug being rendered, the three prizes were taken oft' under the rebel flag. The whole affair was concluded in les I than half an hour, and the Jamestown having rejoined the lleot, was ordered to tow the prizes to Crancv Lland. Taking one biig in tow astern, and cne on each . . s ' pacel themselves, and nothing mure has been done. The- ti 1 8 is now out, and ! probably no new m-wernen: will be made ; for some hours. If ' the Merrimac should then see fit to pay us a visit, she will be ( appropriately welcomed. j Tho nun s of the.

After accomplishing this, the Major returned to the command, which was on the way down the westward slope to Santa Fe. The command under Col. Slough kept on its way, encountering no enemy until it arrived at Pegiou's Ranch, 15 miles ; from Santa Fe, when it was met at the mouth of a camion by 1,000 Texans. This was on Friday, the 28tb, the engagement commencing abouth noon. Col. Slough with seven companies engaged the enemy's front, while Major Chivmgton, with fonr companies (two of cavalry and two of in fantry,) deployed and attacked the rebel s rear, driving the guard from tho rebels' j enpply train, captnring and bnrumg it. i mi ' . - 1 - f K.1 TL. The train consisted of 51 wagons. The Major also captured and spiked one of the enemy' cannon, then retired and joined tho main force. i Meantime our forces under Cot. Slough

Slongh withdrew to a creek, four miles in the rear. The loss on our side was twenty killed, thirteen of the officers and forty to fifty wounded. The rebel 1 ss is unknown. The officers killed wore Capt. CooV Co. F; Liont. Bakr. Co. I; Lieut. Chambers, Co. C; Lieut. Marshall was killed in the first fight. Capt. Cook was wounded in first fight.

Caab was within a short distance of Santa Ä. Communication between him and Col. Slough was continually kept up, and the prospects were that Sibley was in a tight fix. It is hoped Slough will full back to Fort Union and await Can by, when an advance can be made with success. Mr. Ivisk id leu will return soon to the command.

They took the road to Cassville, and then turned diiectly east for Forsyth, dista-it 58 miles. Tha region ea-t .f Cassville is represented as dreary and uninhabited. The tei vraph lino was completed to Gen. Curti-'s headquarters the day before they broke up camp. There was but little use lor it, but if iho Hue is not disturbed, the country will havo tho benefit of it. The wounded at Cassville aro doing well under the following surgeons at that post: Drs, Otterson. McCinre, Gairaes and Hunt of the 3d Illinois cavalry, Clark of the 37th Illinois, and Young of the 36th Illinois. The Democrat's correspondence from Cnrtis's command, dated April Gth, contains the following additional items: On the 30th ult., an expedition consisting of cavalry "and two mountain howitzers, reconnoiteted the country about Iluntsville. A t the latter place it was found that a force of secosh cavalry, whom we intended to bag, had made good their escape. Lieut. Madison gave the citizens an exhibition of th; manner of shelling a bill with his mountain howitzer, and the party returned, having ascertained some facts regarding the movement of Price, upon which the expedition to Forsyth is based. The flag ! planted by Gen. Cnrtis, at Keitsviilo, the first in Arkansas, was ruthlessly torn down and carried off by Joe Peevy. After the capture ot Peevy, the wife of the latter brought in the flag, which was last seen floating over the Provost Marshall's office in Cassville. St. Locis, April IS. Tho correspondence of the Missouri Democrat, dated Rock House Creek, Mo.. April 6th, says: The advance guard of our army, under Gen. Ousterhou8, encamped at this point last evening, having marched twenty miles
from their old camp at Cross Timbers. The people in this vicinity are mostly Union, there being bnt three secessionists on thietoad from Cassville to Flat Creek. I stopped with a good Union man last night, and found several of bis neighbors present, ell anxious to be informed whether oar at my was going ttr leave tnem to the tender mercies of the secessionists. They safd no money could have them to endure the constant annoyance submitted to last summer. Thejr were obliged to -leave their families and crops suffering, and shelter themselves for days and weeks in the bash to get out of reach of the rebels. Bands of outlaws frequently came down from Cassyille, and would rob Union nen of everything in tho house, blankets bread, bacon. fcc. and if they cangkt the owner, he would be taken to CassviHe under strong guard. In consequence of uncertainties of the future, and the unquiet state of the country, but a few are making preparations to put in rops. Farms are laid WWafl and fences are burned up along the main road, and Union men are disconrsged. The secessionists have mostly gone south with their negroes. Some Union pewplohave not only abandoned ihe idea of making cropi. but are getting their wagons out intending to forsake all and emigrate to a place of safety. The wounded are doing well at CassviUe. The Court House and all prominent stores are being used as hospitals. It lieing a fortunate, circumstance; for them that the owner of the principal buildings, had stampeded from the town.

B tLfiMonr., April 15 Nothing important has been received here from Yorktown. Preliminary operations are represented as rapidly progressing. A Richmond paper contains an editoria) exhibiting considerable fear for the safety of that city. It intimates that the Monitor, Nagautuck and Galena, all armed vessels, might easily come up James river, and by their invulnerability and powerful guns, take and keep posfession of the city. To prevent such a result, it proposes that the channel of James river be obftracted by stone, which tt says iabnndant fdk tha purpose, and should be used at once. The Merrimac did ant come dHt, and nothing was seen of her yesterday. Tho tide has been low, and this may have kepi her in. Early io the moraing a rebel tng ran out from behind Se well's Point, but soon returned. Later in the day there was a larflfB fire ia the woods on the point , apparently from the burning of the brush, and gave rise to specular ions that the rebel weia botldiog a new battery there.
