[Here follow the signatures, which are numerous.] The Times says that the rebel army has sustained a disastrous defeat in Maryland, but that does nothing but bring the contending armies to an equality. The cause of the North is not advanced a single step by their unexpected victory. It says the rebel army retired in good order, and fully maintained its reputation for courage and determination. The London Globe, commenting on the battle in Maryland, says: "Unfortunately, these campaigns do not bring the war any nearer to a conclusion." The Post admits that the position of the rebels is not so good as it was at the commencement of September. The Star thinks that the restoration of the prestige of the Northern army will be a sufficient incentive to fill up the ranks with fresh volunteers, and there will be no necessity for drafting.

The steamer Hibernia has arrived with Liverpool dates to the 3d inst. It is stated by the Paris correspondent of the London Times that "It is reported in political circles that the British Government is no longer so entirely averse to the recognition of the Southern Confederacy as it has hitherto been it is understood that there is a probability of the question becoming shortly the subject of deliberation in ministerial circles." The subjoined address, says the London Times, to his Excellency Abraham Lincoln, President of the United States of America, has been signed at Brussels by eminent men of almost every nation in Europe, in the hope, perhaps too sanguine, that it might have some influence in terminating the terrible war now raging in America.

Their eyes were opened when they saw the serried ranks of the enemy prepared to receive them, and then they knew that a hard and bloody fight was at hand. Moore's brigade, of Maury's division, lead the advance, and the battle soon raged hot and furiously. The enemy fought well — better, it is said, than ever before in the West--but they could not withstand the furious charges of our gallant men, who steadily gained upon thn wounded in the breast, with only eight or ten men, who were all, he said, he had been able together of the regiment. The rest were either killed, wounded, prisoners, or had fallen by the way from weakness. On Sunday an order was sent to Gen. Maury to make a charge with his division, but this gallant officer was forced to reply that he had scarcely two regiments left for duty.

Meanwhile the Federal had thrown a heavy force (estimated at 20,000 men) from Bolivar to the South of Corinth, with the design to cut off our retreat and bag our whole army. These fresh troops were met with unexampled bravery and vigor by our jaded men in the sanguinary engagement of Sunday at Pocahontas, which resulted in the discomfiture of the foe, and, thanks to the genius and experience of Gen. Price, in the escape of our army by an improvised road to a point west of Ripley, where they made a stand. The battle on Friday is said to have been the hottest and most desperate of all. Soldiers who were in the battle of Shiloh say it was more terrible than that memorable conflict. The enemy appear to have been thoroughly posted with regard to all our movements. They knew when a given division passed a given point, what was its strength, the direction of its march, how, when, and where

h, destroying camps, strewing the way with knapsacks, guns, clothing, &c., until he reached his first line of entrenchments, where he made a resolute stand.--Our men rapidly pursued what they supposed a flying enemy, counting on a bloodless victory, some of the Generals even expecting to obtain possession of the town without firing a gun. Their eyes were opened when they saw the serried ranks of the enemy prepared to receive them, and then they knew that a hard and bloody fight was at hand.

The rest were either killed, wounded, prisoners, or had fallen by the way from weakness. On Sunday an order was sent to Gen. Maury to make a charge with his division, but this gallant officer was forced to reply that he had scarcely two regiments left for duty. Senstak's artillery was badly cut up, being at one time nearly surrounded by the enemy. Doudell's (35th Alabama) regiment was also roughly handled, but nobly sustained the reputation of Alabama in the unequal strife. Such is a brief, but we believe in the main a truthful, narrative of our recent movement towards Corinth. It is not our purpose here to comment upon the facts related. They are too painful to dwell upon, and call loudly for prompt and searching investigation by the Government.
