twelve months men, undoubtedly gives considerable dissatisfactions not, in fact, as to the matter, but as to the manner in which they are held. It cannot be denied that they do and will complain loudly of the poor recompense given by the Government for their patriotism in answering promptly the first call of the country. I must not close before telling you of the disgraceful manner in which the Yankees treated their dead, after the engagement the other day at 's mill. Their wounded, and the bodies of their dead, lay in and in our side of the slough, from Wednesday night until Saturday evening--the wounded to die and the dead to --and yet no effort was made by the Yankee General to relieve his wounded or bury his dead. When a flag of truce was sent by our commander for permission to bury their dead, that were becoming offensive, his reply was, that they didn't trouble him, but we could bury them if we wanted to. What a comment upon their "Bull Run investigation." Warren.

Correspondence.from the Peninsula. Yorktown, April 21, 1862. Nothing stirring, as yet, has transpired on the Peninsula. The enemy seem to have no disposition to attack. Recent events have demonstrated that they have a large force in front of us, and what they are waiting for time alone will reveal. Our forces are ever watchful — continually on the qui vive; and depend upon it, a warm reception will be given when it is needed. With the exception of the demonstration the other day of Winn's Mill, a little commanding from our batteries, and considerable bantering on the part of our outpost pickets, nothing of note has occurred. The Conscription bill, recently passed by Congress, is the great topic of discussion, and with the twelve months men, undoubtedly gives considerable dissatisfactions not, in fact, as to the matter, but as to the manner in which they are held.

An example. We believe that there is no species of exhortation so encouraging to men placed in a trying situation as that which points to others who have struggled through similar difficulties, and by dint of energy and resolution, come out victorious. For the purpose of cheering our citizens in the present crisis — our soldiers are in need of no such stimulant — we alluded yesterday to the desperate straits to which Rome was reduced by the victories of Hannibal, the magnanimity with which she encountered them, and the powerful force of will and determination, which enabled her to triumph over them. There is a modern example — an example of the present century — more striking even than that of Rome, from which the heart of the patriot must draw courage when he contemplates it. An old and proud nation, which but two centuries age had threatened to impose her yoke upon one half of Europe — which had enjoyed the glory of giving a new world to mankind — whose banner had fl
