Reynolds- Mobile, Ala., Steamer Black i Warrior March 291b 1.8C5, 1 Editor Republican: Oar troops ander,( Generals Cnuby, Granger, and A.J. Bmitu, have moved on toward. Mobile, and were three rlays going seven miles, owing to the state of the roads, nd without seeing but few reoeis. They bavo now arrived within shot of Spanish fort, which is a very-Strong place, heavily case-mated for tbe protection of the within, and as soon as onr men get their guns into position-tbe ball will be opened, the garrison has been hcaAily reiuforced within the Inst 24 hours. We have the fort so surrounded that they cannot get nwoy, snd they are ours. . Tbe fleet has advanced up as fur as the bar, which place Is obstructed with torpedoes and shell, the Cincinnati extracted one of them from its bed. Gen. Bailey has moved forward with his machine which will I hope soon open a way, so our guuboats and Monitors can pass, and give th Mobileits a taste of ynukee thunder. We ore now in full view of the city, and can nee the rebel transports.'aud Monitors in the harbor, they Licp a respectful dis'tauco from r.ur iron-clads. Our land forces are encamped in a beautiful rollinc country, well watered, and plenty of for!ge,'such ns, chickens, hog", turkios, et cet-erat, which the" tuJys say, are not bad to take Before tho war llw camp in which they are, wiis a celebrated watering place, for the bon ton of the South, now played out Midnight There is heavy fighting going on rebel transports can be seen passing to and rrom the city, fillcvith rebs reiuforoing those in the fort, the troops in the fort came out twice, and made a'charge upon our men 10th corps,! but were driven bnclt, with a great loss, While the Mouitor, "Winnebago was passing ovPr tne bar, see ruu u rau a .. , I a ln.nain whli-hi exnloded and sank her in six feet of water, but her turrets are above the water and her mins ore Dlavinir upon the fort, with tolling ef fect Our Mouitor are now crossing the bar and to-morrow will open out on rebel Monitor! and Fort March 291h, The 1st Brignde of 3d' Division, was camped ia tho midst of a turpentino orchard," which Division theOGth 0. V. I. is -in conmand by Uen. ueuton. This moruiug at daylight they were on tho march, tbe day being pleasaut, and the roads tolerable good; but unfortuuably the ud Divison were directed from their proper routo and were obliged to jetraco their steps and en camp about 3 P. M. which tho troops did not obiect todoiue-fttall! iGeo. Granger and staff Droceeded to Gen. Benton's command" which was in the advance. , The first days march the 96th Ohio, had it began to rain aud before noon two inches of water had fallen j but the regiment broke camp, notwithstanding- that it still continued to Dour, and proceeded on the march. Here commenced the tug of war, for the wheels ot the army wagons as .well as artillery, cut through the thin crust of earth, and sauk some 15 inches in the mud, the mulos stumblod ana fell, snd the drivers attlried la the mnd. But men look hold and made corduroy roads and bridges, aud putting their shoulders to the wheels lifted and then dragged the artillery and wagons aloug by main force, still the raio fell in torrents, it was rain, rain, rain, thunder and lightning and rain j till the ground was a lake, and tbe creeks rivers. Tuesdoy night the rain ceased, and Wednesday morning dawned pleasently overhead, bnt underfoot, oh! Fict- tare it from the swamps of Arkansas acd la goons of Louisana, but to describe It ask me not But as the boys 6ay "perseverance, uft soap, and a littlo elbow greaso" overcome all obstacles, and they reached the banks of Fi?h river. Take ft all ia all it was a wearisome march for the mon. - - March 30th -lu all the roads leading to the forts and landings are filled with shell and tor-pedoes, 'which make it very hazardous, and dangerous to stir around mach ou terrafirma. .Two wagons, wilh the mules hitched to them, were blown up, and scattered aroncd promis cuounly, also an officer on horse back, was in-stautly killed by those infernal weapons. 1 is a way the chivalric sons of the Roulb have of flghttog.too cowardly to fight au honroable warfare. k General A. J. Smith, has bis headquarters ia plalu view' of tho. rebel works, a shell was sent through bis toot, he just looked up and said "good morning d d you," he does not seem to mind shot and shell that is passing over his tent, his loss was heavy In driving the rebels from their rifle pits, and still hold them to the mortification of Gca. Maury, the rebel brnfjnrt whowas going to drive him from them, or to b II, hebssn'tJdoaS it yet Gen. Steele, has arrived from Tcusacola. with a largo force and is now co operating with the other corps, on his march he captured some 300 robels 07 of them being officers, he has cut off ell retreut from the fort, oud has been pltfying hob with the rail roads leading into Mobile. Some 80 rebels deserter.', and two huudrod contiabands was brought into our lines day and they were a wretched looking set of meni women and children, and say that the rebels have 25,000 men, ta and about Mobile, under Gen's, Dick, Taylor, Maury and Gardner. There has been of our Monitors struck and disabled for the time being, but the "Wiuue-bago" is hurling its iron bait with tremendous force upon the rebel fort, and works We consider those In the fort our game, rather troublesome to gua'rd them at present to keep them from straggling off, cut when our Mortars get into posiBh, it will kind of tame them, to let a few 18 inch pills drop among them, once or twice a day. March 31at, The fight goes bravely on, this morning the rebel Monitors disabled two or three of our howitzers, aud had to dUband uutil night, the place becoming too hot for ,1 e ' 1. il A, our men to race tuo irou uau ium wuo hurled from the rebel Monitors and batteries, The Thomas started for New Orleans, to day, with 4oo woundeej men, belonging to tue 16th Corps, aud who so gallantly charged and drove the rebels from their outer works. - The troops are in the best of spirits and suy Mo. bile is bound la como this time, and auxioss to bo led on, they do not believo in stoppjpg at a half way houso. The lanre Dahlgreen guns are playing sad havoc among the rebels transports one shot cut the city wharf boot in two.aud sunk two of their transports, and disabled one, so tuey are not lit for setvico. There Is one contiuua bombarding of land and naval guus, bearing on the fort oud the rebel monitors, tho firing can be distinctly heard at Fort Gaius. 35 miles from the scete of action. Gen. Totten, has moved to tho front with his seige train and by tlnee o'clock, he will bavo some of his heaviest pieces in position and then we will seo how long they will hold the fort Forty four of the Johnuy's were nab-bed, while skirmishing out for cattle, they say, that they have file thousand mon in ma ion. ADrfflst The morning is a beautiful one fair and warm, you hear nothing but the thun der of our Artillery, and thu rattling of musk- fitrv on the skirmish line. The fort is eeltiug budly ruptured, aud no rebel dare show his head about their works, if he djjes you see fifty pieces leveled at his head..

It made them show their ivory cou siderable when proseutedwith a gw aud accou tremcuts. A party of guerrillas made an attack on our wn"-ons trains, which wastries in me muu uu Fish River, and captured VJ muics, eigiu un-rnrn and one strucslcr, also some of our ad vnnce skirmishers came.upon a party of rebel cavalry, who wero attempting to burn the bridge across the Bayou Minet-ftt Zibley's mills, and fired upon them killing six aud wonu rind ton. A few hours ago the rcbols made sortie out of the fort, in front of the old 13th Corps, and attempted to surprise our skirmishers, and for a' short time tho firing wos pretty orisK, our loss was four men wounded, tha robels 11 kill' ed and 13 wounded. Our forces are, and have been, since daylight peporing away at the fort. Our skirmishers are within two hundred of it, and pur artillery three hundred. We have them encompassed on the throe laud side's, the 13th Corps, hold inir the extreme left near the bay, the 16th holding the extreme right the 90th Ohip has a rirominent olaco iu the center, so mat tne ouiy chance for trfem to escape is. by water and if onr guuboats can get up the torpedoes and approach a littlo nearer we have them, ' ; Gen.

" ' I -u - Jffl-Last woek, an address to ths people of Virginia was published by permission, in the Richmond papers, signed by number of the members of the rebol Legislature, asking the members, and the prominent rebels to assemble at Richmond, to consult upon the best way of restoring peace, and order to the State in its jut condition. The movement was man- rrnraicd by Judgs Campbell. Gen. Weitzel had promised passes and protection to these men. The matter being contioeroa oi ques tionable policy, tho ordtf aud permits have t-ml.

But, surely, I iuterrnptcd, "you canuot mnciue that your armies will over regain Richmond?" "Ah.sir," she responded, with a kuowinr? smile, "what uews do thej have at your heudqiiartors this evening?

The Immediate presence of tha borrriMa ciime which has stricken the Republic to the heart, lo the hour of Its trausceodeut and long awaited ti iumph, is unfavorable to a full aud clear conception of its importance audi its consequence! It must nocessarily appear to different observers under different aspects', and each will especially lament It for some reasons which will have less force sod weight with others. For our own part, it Intensifies our regret, ' while it is nevertheless our abiding consolation that the lamented Head of tho Republic now sleeping in his bloody shroud was never provoked to the e.T,hibitioa of one trace of hate or even wrath toward those against whom he was compelled to battle for tbe life of the NatioD. From the hour, now eleven yeaw-past, when, iu viow- of the treacherous repa-diation of the Missouri compact, he enuncia- 7 ted. tho axiomatic yet startling truth: "The Union canuot permanently exist half slave and; half free," down to that of his assassinations he uttered ne syllable of retort to the hideous vomitings of abuse aud slander wherewith he was iucessoutly covored by tbe partisans of -., the doomed but still vital and venomous "iu- : stitution." Perpetually represented to the Southern people as a libel 00 Humuuity and ' a tiger ravenous for blood, he not- only pot v . forth no speech, no paper, no manifesto, that gave the loast counteuonce to theso calumnies, but be never, in his most intimate and coiid-, , dential moments, indicated a hope, or a wishe that evil should befall one of theso enemies, save as it should bo necessary for the salvation of the country. And this fact hitherto suppressed and distorted, will now make itself felt and respected. Tho blow that struck . down Abrabum Lincoln bereft the Union's misguided aud criminal assailants of the firm- est and most powVrfu! opponent of all avoidable severity, all not indispensable harshness, in suppressing their Rebellion. His very last puiilio utterance the speech of tho Tuesday night prior to his assassination was con-ceivedin this spirit and had no other purpose than to reconcilo the North to the most gentle and moguauimous treatmeut of the discomfit. : ed insurgents. Ifover man made war in a Christaiu spirit, Mr. Lincoln was that maa. nis first Inaugural is the most nffecting appeal ever made to a disaffected party against the madness and crime of plunging their country into an abyss of blood and horror.. 'H'S last Inaugural, so solemn arid religious in its tone, and now seeming to have been written under the shadow of impending death, is pervaded by tho same spirit His failings M s, lead.er in such crisis were prompted by a nature slow to anger and shrinking from any but the most indispensable shedding of blood. Nq portion of the American peoplo have ; greater reason to deploro its murder thr.n those in whose presumed Interest or to glut wnoso malignity it was perpetrated. President Lincoln fell a sacrifice to" hit - couutry's salvation as absolutely, palpably, as though ho had been struck down while lead-' ing an assault ou the ramparts of Petersburg. The wretch who killed him was impelled by 1 no private malice, but imagined himself ao avcrger of that downcast idol which, disliking to be kuowo simply as Slavery, styles itself "the South.1 He was murdered, not that Slavery might live, but that it might briug-down its most conspicuous e:emy in its fall His death sets the seal of Fate to the decreo' that dooms Slavery speedily to perish, not ia this country only, but ia all its remaining lurking-places throughout the civilized world, The Republic is saved forever from Its giant curse and shame. It will not be divided; it will all be Free. If there had been doubt of this last week, as there was not there is doubt , no longer. Oar abiding and serious peril ia transfusion iuto the veins of the Loyal Millions of some portion of tht blood of the monster they have slain. 'I he public feeling aroused , by tho double assassination nt Washington needs to bo calmed aud directed, not inflamed and aggravated. Thero is depravity but uo dangor in the babble of the mad fool who says ho is glad Lincoln is killed; there is food for graver thought, there is a call for sterner reprobatiou, ia the pious tuggestion that our good Presideut has been I'rovidentially called . hence ia order that tho loadiug Rebels may receive that condign puuishmcnt which bis kiudnes of hart would have averted. For nothing can be further from the truth than the current notion that Mr.- Lincoln was a man easily deflected from his course. He was slow to roach conclusions; but ouce attained, they were immovablo. He was among the last to porcoive that the struggle iuto which we have been plunged could ouly be fonght to a successful Issue by opeuly recog-niring the fact that Slavery had "challcugf 4 tho Uoioa to mortal encounter and that tha gago must be taken up as it was thrown downr but onoo coavineed of that fact he was convince! forever. There was not ia all Araeri-oa one mao more inflexible in his resolve that Slavery should die and the Union be restored than was Abraham Lincoln. And whoever imagines that he could have been duped, or cajoled,or wheedled,out of his purpose on this head, doe grojs injustice to bis memory.
