Perhaps the most surprising thing of the week is
that the account of Magruder's important captures at
Urashear City is contirmed by the yankee accounts in
the New York Herild. We are so accustomed to fabri

Rsi>obted 1'h0J*09iti0N for Pk.\cb —It has been re

This is so far true that Mr Stephens did go as f.ir a*

he went for i« only conjectured, though it is said that it
was in relation to exchange of prisoners.

The proposal of President D-tvis doeii him honor, and j
will raise our country stiil higher in th« estimation of i
the civilized w >rli. It was d;h !e at the only moment !
when we hav. Ua l it in our power t. retaliite the w-an- '
ton, savage outrages which the eneniy has p**rpetrated I
wherevor he hus iuvaded and held our territory. When
Gen. Lee ent.-ie i Penns* Ivanii*. in-'tead of carrying fire
and sword into the Louse of every peaceful man and e-
?ea woman, President Davis dispatches the second offi
cer of (he g iverniiient on this mis.-'ion of mercy, to se
cure by solemn stipulation those exemptions from out
rage which are recognized by all civilized nations, but
systematicill}* violated by our sivage eneniy. But the
Ifttter has chosen to cl^jse the dt^or to negotiution, not
only on this subject but we presume on any other. So
be it. The incident furnishes atiother evidetice of the
implacability aui inhumanity of the enemy, and of the
conse uent du'y t . fight th. m to the 1h;1 extremity.

There ie no law that we know of to punish the ori

•ulted public to dismiss Mr. "O.”
from recent specimens we .ear that the South ia bent
upon wroeting the palm from the yankees in the line of
biuineuB in which they are pre eminent—lying.
A Tbck Story from the Soutiiwicht.—When we get

readers that the capture of Braahear City, y*iiU itg jm-
meuse amount of ordu.'incc, and commissary and ju;tr-

Abtsb ot Ofpiokr*.—Some few weeks ago Gen.
Pemberton was (he target at which the unthinking press
aimed its most » nvcnomed shafts His subsequent noble
defence of Vicksburg extorted universi^i praise, in which
the afori i-aid unthinking press joined, perhaps with as
little care whether oorrfct or not. At the present time
Gen. Johnston has taken the place of Pemberton as the
ohjpci of abuse. Tf the papers which arc incline4 to
tear biiri to piccpf have any information on which to
ba.^e their complaints, they have the advantage of U3.
W'e h ivc not seen in any letter, dispatch or paper, any
ofJicifil cr reliable statenient of the force he bas with
which i! wa* hoped and expected that he would whip
Qrnnt nn'l relieve Vicksburg. If ho bad no troops, or
next to none - and so far a? we know this was his con
dition—it would have been Qtiixotic indeed for him to
attack Oiaut's inmiensf' army. On th» other hand, he
inuy have had a large force, and if he Lad, why then he
ia con-'urible for not going to Pemberton’s relief. This
is a fnct of which, we repeat, we have no inforinfttion.
and until we have, it is cruelly unjust and impolitic to
condemn Johnston. Let us wait. It has bt-en suggest
ed, ind I'ure is some reason to fear truly, that the peo
ple of that part of the Confederacy have not rallied as
they should have done for the defence of their homes:
an’. liiHt itie’;-f'ore JDhnstor had i;ot a sufficient army to
justify an advance
.Another much abused officer is Lieut Gen Holnies,
commanding a Western Kepartment Not only the
newspapers have abused him for not doing something
great.—without at all knowing whether he had or had
not great means with which to perform great adi^'os,—
hut they »>re publishing with apparent gusto a letter
fr'*n! ('ne .1. W. Tucker dated nowhrre, in which many
asseriions are made in regard to alleged conversations
beiwei'n Gens. Holmes, Kirby Smith, Price and others,
to which Tucker does not appear to have been a party,
ami as to which, in the following sentence, he admits
that not one of them has authorized or is responsible
for anything he says: —
‘•It is proper to add that neither Gen. Price, nor any
officer nor priv>.r? of that army has the remotest know
ledge of this comnjunication; nor have they, or any of
them, authoiized or requested the publication of thpse
or any 'ithqr facts connected -ith that Department.
Hut honestly believing that sileuce was a sin against
our dearest interests, I have made myself responsible
for this article.”
Now who is .F. \S. Tucker, who thus vohinteers to d**-
tail conversations. Ac., which other persons, public of
ficers, Lild, without their authority or knowledge? In
hhi opinion, Gen. Holmes is incompetent, and ha« pre
vented Price and others from aokieving great triumphs.
But what is the worth of his opinion? Is it any more
worth iu military matters than that of the Editors who
lately abusel and now praise Pemberton? If‘‘silence
was a sin against bur dearest interests.” it was a sin
for which he was not responsible, and he might have
allowed Gens. Price, Smith &o. to bear it without his
interference.
For ourseWes,’ we know Gen. Holmes to be a.s true a
patriot as breathes. He has been a soldier for mapy
years, ever since he graduated at West Point in
and has nevci- until now been reproached for a want of
capacity or energy. His prc verbial modesty was shock
ed by the ord^r assigning him to so important a com
mand' but, after remonstrating in vain, he obtyed or
ders, as he always has done except in one instance, vi*:
ia April ll^Ol. when he was required at Fort Columbus,
in New York harbor, to make some preparation for the
preteat war upon the Scuih. He refused to do that, re
signed. came to North Carolina and offered his services
to his native State to resist Lincoln. During this war,
as in others, he has met the enemy on various battle
fields, always exhibiting the cool courage of the expe
rienced soldier and Christian gentleman. Wedonot like
to see such a man vilified, by unmilit iry Editors or un
known J. W. Tuckers, and especially when we suspect
that his being a \orth Carolinian is the ol»».->f o»usa of
the ass mils. We have c>'nfideU'‘e tbit time will sh.>w
him to be a good and true soliicr and man
Cossi Rti'TioM or Forkioskrs.—When South Caroli
na seceded, Henry .Shicken, a German who had been in
this country 7 years but had never been naturalized,
voluntarily joined a militia company and participated
in the operations against Fort -Sumter. He has lately
applied for a w'it of Habeas Corpus to obtain from the
(’ourta a disuhargo from military st^rvice un ier the
conscription laws, on the grouni that he is an alien
and never intended to remain iu this country. Judge
Miigrath has re;ur 1 to issue the writ. While he re-

THE WAR IN PENNSYLVANIA
From the Richmond Dispatch.
A wounded efticer of Wright’s brigade, who arrived
here yesterday evening, gives some highly interesting
particulars of the battles of Gettysburg, which entirely
changes the face of the news published from Northern
sources. He left Gettysburg at 11 o'clock on Saturd.ay
morning From his statement we gather the following
particulars:
In the fight of Welnesday and Thiirsdav we whipped
the enemy badly. Ou Friday the tight again commerced,
being chiefly done by our centre, which was comp'iFf'd
of Longsireet's corps and two divi“ion.s of Oen.
Hill’s corps. Neither the right nor left wing was teri-
ously engaged. We Jrovr (he fH^mu h-'.tk firr rniUii to the
heights, which he had fortified. In driving liiemihis
five miles we broke through two of thi-ir lines of haivie
formed to ivceive the onset of cur troops, :n.d fiu'.Hy
c’liiirgcd them to the beiphi" Here our men wen; or
dered to charge th»; heights, and the order being exe
cuted resulted in our repulse.
On Friday night our w igf>n trains were ordered lo
fall back, and commenced gojne to the rear ft ip sup
posed our army fell back from want of provision?.
'i'here was no scarcity of ammunition, for thore were
many tiain-j of ordpn.nce out of which not a single c.irt-
ridge or shell had been taken. Some of tbeni were at
tacked by ihe enemy, but Imboden’.s cavalry sncc^'S-
fully drove them off. Those of our men who were
slightly wouuded and (.ould waik were sent oil' Sattiriiay
uboiit noon. Those who were severely wouii.led were
left, in hospitals near the battle field.
In the fights of \N«dnesday, Thursdaj', and Friday,
Gen. l.ee took about ln.lMltt prisoners, who were prompt-
Ij' sent to t)ie rear, and who, our informant thinks, will
reach Virginia safely. During the same time we lost
about 4,()IM» prisoners and about ll.HOO killed ami
wounded—making our lohs Ifj.UlH) in all The battle
was the in.ist furiouj that has taken place in this coun
try, and thv losspij of the encniy iu killed .ind wouud-
Cd musi exceeil ours. lu the charge upon tlu’in whiith
drove tl-.i‘ni five mites, ilieir loss, whil.* flying before
our troops, was enoruiou.- Wright's biigido suffered
sevet;ely. One of the regiments which weat into action
with a Colonel, Lt. Colgnel, and five or six C’aptains,
came out in charge of a Second Lieutenant, the ranking
officers having been either killed or wounded.
Our inf.-rmant says that -^iir array fell back with the
greatest deliberation and order—to use his expression
— “splendidly.” There was no demoralization. None
of the officers have any idea that Gen. Le« intends to
re cross the Potomac, nor has that intention been-even
hinted at by the officers commanding corps. It was
generally ar.d distinctly understood that the falling back
was caused by tlie difficulty iu obtaining provisions
through so long a line of communication as that from
Geiiysburg to Williamsport, and no one in the army be
lieved that it was intended to cvacuato Maryland. The
nie« w rr in good spirits and n a ly for another fight
with the eutmy.
The Potomac, when our informant crossed, was very
high. It is proper to etuto ihat th-? oiScer from wliom
the above information was obtained was a very intelli
gent, cool, and deliberate person, and one not likely to
exaggerate any fact which he might have leained.
We were informed in an authentic quarter late last
night, that a gentleman had arrivd in Richmond from
Washington yesterday evening, who left the latter city
on Sunday night He reports that the news receivt*a
there np to that time w is decidedly unf.-'.vorablc to the
Federal arms, and that a d-ep and manifest feeling of
despondency pervaded the whole community iu conse
quence of the intelligence. Efforts were made to pre-
v#nt the iuformatiou received by the authorities from
going to the public Little confi !ence wao f»dt in the
ability of Meade’s army to prevent Lee s advance on
that city when he should attcmj t it. and much aiiXietv
was felt for the safety of tho city. No security wiwj felt
against its fall.
It was rumored during the afternoon of yesterday
that a despatch had bi-en received by the President
from Gen. lice, stating that his army, in good order,
had fallen back to H.agi'rstown. We innuirei of the
President ' f the truth of this report, and were assure!
that no such dispitch had been received by him.
•\ gentleman who lived all ihc early part of Lis life in
Gettysburg m^kes the following statement, from which
it will be seen how difficult it is to surround or cut otl'
Gen. Lee: —
‘•Gettysburg lies Northeast of Baltimore 5'2 miles, 80
from Waahington on the roal through Frederick, which
is Southeast from it a dii^tance of miles. There is
a chain ot mountains lying on the West of and wiihin 8
miles of l}et:ysburg on the West, extending South
through Frederick county. If Hen. Lee fell back lo-
ward.s the Potomac he had the advantage of these nioun-
tainii, H pursuing ariuj jul J hn-TT. ^ Krouu«^
them s 'uthward through Frederick, ur else be exposed
to the narrow passes of these mountains.”
From the Richmond Kianiiner.
The Central train from .'^•aunion brought several
iroldit rs who were wounded at G; '\vst>urg. One of ibe*e,
who says he left G-»ttyshurg on Saturday at noon, re
ports up to that time our array had met with no defeat.
T'lere was no denorali:ition existing in our ranks, but
on-the contrary, the men were as couti lent as ever; ii'^r
was mere any evidence of a hasty retreat being about
to be made. Our trains were in motion towards Ha-
g-‘r«town, but at a leisurely pace. We hal taken (fur-
te'n thousa'.i'i prisoners who were being escorted ti'warcis
Williamsport.
Late in the evening it became publicly known that
there had been received at the war office an otli;ial dis
patch from the commandant of the post at Martinsburg,
.'f iting that Gen. L«e was at Hagerstown with his array
in fine order and condition. This iis.“ipated the gioom
of the general public.
Las' night the I’r. sident received a dispatch from tho
ooLimandant of the post at Martinsburg. which whs in
the highest degree cheering. It stated that ■Jen Lee
had been victorious in every engagenivtit w:'h the ene
my, aud had fallen t ack to Hantr-iown pimply that he
might put across 'he Po'omac his wounded .lud prison
ers. both of whom were numerous.
The movements of the late army of the Pamunkey leave
no doutir as to the light in which the yankee Govern
ment views the recent miliiary events in Pennsylvania.

Confederates wc-re attai-ked on Wednesday by two army

the whole Federal force w>is attacked by the Confeda-

On Friday the battle was renewed, lasting through
the day, and resultpJ in a more signal repulsa than
the previous day. The losses were extraordin:irily se

fell back towards the moantains. W'hat has followed

From Charluton.—Chablkston, July 10.—Firing on
both^ sides ceaaed at 6J o’clock P. M. The principal
lighting hsB been with Battery Wagner, on Morria’ Is
land. Four Monitors ware engaged from A. M. to 2
P M They withdrew one hour, when a tug boat sup
plied I hem with ammunition, and they renewed the at
tack at 8. The infantry fighting was also severe. The
yankoes made two assaulteon Battery Wagner, and were
repulsed. Our casualties are about 150 killed, wound
ed aud missing, including 3 offioera killed, viz: Capts.
Haskell ami Cheeves, and Lieut. Bee. It is supposed
the ajtack will be renewed to-morrow.
[No Charleston paper of later date than last Wed
nesday has yet reached ua. But the Wilmington Jour
nal of Saturday learned from a dispatch received by
Gen Whitinpr that morning “that the enemy attaf^kad
in force Battery Wagner on Morris Island at daylight
this [Saturday] morning, but was quickly repulsed
with a loss of 9.5 killed, many wounded ard 1.30 priscn-
er«. Only 5 casualties on our side. All quiet still on
Jamea Islnnd.”]
From Mississippi.—Jackson, July 9.—The enemy is
Still advancing slowly, shelling our cavalry. They are
now within 4 miles of our works.
9 P. M.—A regular artillery duel has been going on
for the uaHt hour, 8 miles off. The yankees are moving
up slowly and steadily.
July 10 —The attack has begun Our batteries
opened ou them finely. The enemy is evidently in heavy
force.
Heavy infantry and artillery skirmishing ia going on.
The enemy are shelling the city, and hava killed several
soldiers and citizens Our troops are in excellent
spirits, and if the enemy make a general attack we are
certain of success. The attack may not become general
before morning, though their tro»ps are still pressiHg
forward. But few men lost on our side yet. The ene
my must be suffering for wafer, as all the cisterns and
ponds have been destroyed. Thermometer 92
6 P M.—The artillery firing has ceased. Th? ene-
-hurpsbooters, sud our skirmishers are Mazing
aw.ay Our less will not exceed 50.
Fighting at (he tt'ett—Despatches from Panola, Misfi.,
July 7lh, say that Gen. Holmes attacked Helena on the
4th, \;iil cajitiired three batteries, but reinforcements
arriving from below with five gunboats, drove our for
ces back. Our loss was 500. Heavy firing was heard
the next day.
The Natchez Courier says that a letter from a mem-
lier of the Conner Battery, dated last week, near
Providence, La , reports that a battle had just occurred
in which the enemy were severely punished. They lost
1.500 prisoners. The Conner Batte’"y was in tho fight
but not damaged.
The Yankees in Xorthampton.—Wkldon, July 10.—
Twelve yankee cavalry went to Rich Square, Northamp
ton county, on Monday last, and spent the night, and
quietly returned to the Chowau the next day in safety.
Fra.nci —J|he London Times, alluding to the French
conquest *f .Mexico, says:—
“Once delivered from the Mexican imbroglio, we do
not doubt that the Emperor of the French will make his
powerful voice heard in America in very different tones
from those which he has hitherto used. Nor can w«
entertain much doubt that his voice, if earnestly and
decidedly raised, will be obeyed. To a great part of
the American people a summons to give up a wasteful
and profitless war, which has already engolphed in its
vortex their youfh, their wealth and their liberties, will
be eagerly hailed, let it come from what quarter it may.”
The cargo of the 9team«*r recently run into Wilming
ton, by Col. Crossan, arrived here on yesterday. Il con
sists of cloths, blankets, shoes, flannels, medicines, &•.
We learn th.'tt a large stock of medicines have been pro
cured by this arriva*. The success of this enterprise,
for which our people are mainly indebted to Got. Vance,
furnishes an abundant supply of clothing and shoes fer
the immediate wanta of our army, and we have cause
to hope and believe, that before the stock just received
is exhausted other cargoes will arrive.—Hal. Progrest.

view of benefit ting myself and practicing a fraud on

against his foul aspersions: .and after the trial the
public will gee the proper estimate to place upon this
libeller’s statement. I deprecate pursuing such a course,
