"Rosencrans is pushing forward his forces with great success, and on the 2d had advanced to Middleborougb, half way be tween Mur-freeeboro' and Shelbyville. A di-pftch from the former place, same date, says an expedi tion of one thousandcavalry and sixteen hundred infantry lft Murfresboro' the following morning and encountered the enemy at Bradyville, aqd that after .severe fighting' the enemy were driven from town with some loss.

The Havana correspondent of the Herald, 25lb, says the re-establishment of the blockade off Galveston and Charleston has been published in the official organ here and, notice of it has been communicated to the Gov ernment by the Spanish Minister at, Washington. The Herald says by' tbe latest advices irom Europo the insurrection in Poland had assumed most formidable proportions. Prussia baa made engagements with RuEBia to allow Russian troops to. pups over her Tetritory. The EnglUfc, French and Austrian cabinets have taken umbrage at an understanding which seems to existupon this sub ject between Russia and Prussia and it is evident that all Europe will feel the influence of this great, and if sustainedj revolutionary movement in Poland : and that Napoleon will find full scope for his energies in restoring quiet at home. This, Bays the Herald, will leave -us to deal with our troubles without any undue meddling, as we shall now heaino more of 'Napoleon's mediation save in a pacific manner.'

In assdming com-; mand, he wbuldaddress a few -words of Jexhorta-i tion to his forces :.' -saU . -i ; -" j . " . Soldiers 1 Tour brutal &ttd, maligqant enemy Is Buttine forth efforts unexampled in the history; of the world. Having failed to subjugate , you he is maddened with the thirst for vengeance, ana is pushing iorward'bis foreign j mercenaries to plunder your property and lay WjSste your homes. Rot bis marauding hosts have been so often beaten and bafiled, that tb.ey are now 'discouraged and demoralized. Should vou be able to check .them every where for the next sixty days, the three huh- J dred thousand whose time expires in .may,, win not" re-enlist, and the war will end before July. Should tha scoundrels, however, gain a single sub stantial, success at any 'pne point.: the war will be prolonged during the entire . Administration of Lincoln. It becomes a solemn dtity tien, to labor ard flight during the next two months as we have never done before. We must "make the, war un popular with the mercenary vandals of the North, by harrassing and annoyilg them. ' We must cut down to six feet by two, this dimensions of tbe farms which 'these planderers propose to ap propriate. You will hwve to endure more hard ships, and to : fight more 'desperate battles, than you would have done, were you i ranks properly tilled... On ci;ies, towns and villages, are full of young and able-bodied skulkers, Rearing the sem blance of mm, who have dodged!'.frdm the battle finld under tbe provisions of the' exemption bill. The scorn of the fair sex, and (the contempt of 'all honorable men, have not beeu able to drive these cowardly mioreants into;the ranks. So long as they can fatten upon the?j miseries of the country, andsholter their worthUfs carcasses from Yankee bullets, they are insensible to shame. But a day of retribution awaits tese abortions of humanity. .Their own descendants will execrate their memory, when the finger oCecorn is pointed, and the taunt is uttered, "he is tfy aan, or grand eon, or great-grand-tan of art, 'exempt and extor tioner." I . t'Do your full duty, Soldiers, and leave these poltroons and villains to the execration of poster 4 ity. All commanding officers arj hereby enjoin ed to furnish the names of officers and men, who distinguish themselves in pitched battles and skirmishes. Those, so distinguishing themselves, will be recommended for promotion .and their names published in the principal! papers of their respective States. j The Infantry have tbear the i brunt of every bittle, and to endure special hardships in every J campaign. The post of danger and' of suffering is the post of honor. If our liberty be ever won, it 'will be due mainly to tbe indomitable pluck and sturdy endurance of our heroic Infantry. The Confederate Artillery has behaved most sobly, and the wonder is, that with inferior guns ammunition, it has been able to cope successfully with the splendid armament of the enemy. It has been a mistake, however, to contend with the Yankee Artille'ry. . Reserve your fire, as at Fred erkksbarjr, for the masses of Infantry, and do not withdraw your guns just- when they are be 'coming tff-tive. It is glorious to lose guns by fighting them to the last. It is disgraceful, to .save them by retiring early from, the fight. The Cavalry constitutes the eyes and ears of the army. Tbe safety of tbe entire command de pends upon their vigilanco, and' the faithfulness of their reports. The officers and men, who per mit themselves to be surprised, deserve to die, and tbe Commanding General will spare no efforts to' ?ecure them their deserts.- 'Almost equally crim inal are tbe scouts, who through fright, bring in wild serisationaT reports. They' will be courfc martisled for cowardice. ;i Mary opportunities will be afforded to the Cav alry to harass the enemy, cut off "supplies, drive in his pickets, &c. Those who have never been in battle, will thus be enabled to 'enjoy tbe novel sensation of listening to the sound of hostile shot and shell, and those who have listened a great way off, will be allowed to come some miles nearer, and compare th sensation caused by the distant can nontule" with that produced by the rattle of musketry. D. H. HILL, Major General. PARTICULARS OF THE CAPTURE OI THE QUEEN OF THE Yf EST. A correspondent of the Memphis Appeal gives the following account of the capture of the Yankee-gunboat Queen of the West, thaj rah our batteries at Vicksburg,and was subsequently cap tured, through an ingenious and heroic exploit of a single hand, the gallant Wood, the pilot taken from the Confederate stermer Era, and ordered to the wheel of the Queen of the West, under the bayonets of a guard of Yankee soldiers: On the corning of the 12th infant, the Era No. 5, with Mr. George Wood as her pilot, steam ed out from her mooring at Alexandria, loaded for Black river, which enapties into Red river, seme forty miles trom her mouth. On reaching Qer doti's lafiding, seventy-hv-e miles! below Alexan dria, where we have a military post, consisting oi i case mated guns and -1- parrot pieces, the Era was stopped. and told that the night be fore (Wednesday) a suspicious looking craft had made ber appearance in the mouth of Red river, consequently she tied up for further develop ments. Other boats, as many as four, came down afjd were likewise stopped ;, they remained awhile arid then returned up the river. j' . Saturday .morning, the 14th, at daylight, the Fa steamed up and plowed her way down to her designation, supposing she could reach the mouth of Black river with safety, as nbthinghad then been heard of tbe Queen of the West coming up. Gliding down her walery.path, she'was bounding onward with full sieAno, when; some ten miles above the mouth of Black river, her turning- point, she was met at a bend irrthe river, fired in to, one'shot hitting her pilot house, and .was cap tured by the Queen of the West, which was steaming upwaid on fojrbidden waters. iTbe crew and passengers of the Era were taken prisoners, and all were guarded on board the Era by a band of Abolition' soldiers, save Mr. Georg9 Wood, the pilot, who was ordered aboard the Queen of the West, and with heavy threats directed to her pi lot wheel to assist her pilot in diicting heron ward to tbe capture of our forts. yjOn they glided, but not distrustful, andmuch elated at their suc cess, till they came in reach of our! battery at five, P. M., when she commenced firing, still advanc ing. Oir batteries challenged her by opening most furiously . from their hidden recesses. Still she advanced, till as I am toid by one of onr lieu tenant?, who was there, she came within a quarter of a mile of our battery, and Ion the-opposite shore in full range for our guns, when the gallant Wood, who directed her wheel j lid her rounded, -ran her aground, breaking her rudder and thus crippling her and.. tuning her broadside to give our gUDs a iair chance. This gallant man, in the confusion, made good his escape, as it was-a life and death case with him. . Thuacrippled and dis abled, by tbe hand that drove hereon 4o her desti ny, she lay like, a wounded falcon, at the mercyw or ner adversaries, The night was dark and stormy, the! heavens. f overnung wnnciouas, wnicn-now ana men pealed lortn xneir matienng tnunaer, ana arencnea tne earth with rain.

Foot ; Therefore, I take occasion, as I think it my duty, to contra dict the statement made by said Capt. Foore. Ou or about the 20th December, Capt. Foote ordered Private. John D.
