tlxiK>tfivK Ltinw.— Aocofdlng to the ollicial did-
patv-heii of Uraut to Stanton, aa t^iegraplied by the
laiier to New York on the 'id, and confirmed by
other sources. Grant had mptui-ed and iiidd Coid
Harbor, capturing several hundred prisoners aiui
tvpeiliug everj attempt oi' the Ooutederale« to re
take the pla'el G«n. Snuth had captured (ien. Fitx-
tuigh Lee and 500 of his cavalry! Oen. Le« tiad,
l>een driven baok by Geu. Grant and now within
the Richmond eatrenchmenta! Only a small force
of rebeid in the yaukee fronts and the inhabit^its of
i’etereburg prepared to deliver up that city! Beau
regard withdrawiug hia troopu and artillery! The
rebels raiofi attacked the yankee iroQ-clad^ and “fin
ished” or drovn them back up the river!
Sach art* the huge liea which graced the columns
of the New York papers of the 4th insl. Th« ex
planation of them all is that the Baltimore Conven
tion to nominate a candidate for President was ab.>nt
to meitt, and it was deemed proper to humbug that
body. Yet it waa gratuitous lying after all, ati is
evident from the regular advance of gold. If theee
prodigious aucco^i^ had been at all credited in New
York, gold would have fallen nvore rapidly than it
ri»e. As to Uold Harbor, we hawj had several pri
vate letters of later date than the 2d, w ritten at that
place by the Junior Kditor of the Olwervt'r, who
c^rteduly had not been informed ot Grant’s capture
of the place, but on the contrary waej ijatii?fi(id that
all hir efforto to capture it had been repulsed with
heavy lot*6.
Bkamt Ul'iucb.—This notorious scoundrel is l\ir-
D.»hing another evidence of the propensity of man
kind to adii kicks to facilitate the downwtml i>rogreHii
ol him who i«: already on the road duwn hill. But
ler's failures and defeats near I’vtersburg are af-
tordtng the opportunity for this process which his
vtllaniee never appeared to furnish to his feliow
scoundrels 20 the United SiAtes. The New York
'i'ime«'s attack upon his Generalship was noticed in
oar last; and now we see that an investigation of his
giealings is proposed in the IT. S. cienat^^ ami that
the death of his brother in N«w York is made the
occafi)«.'0 for a charge iu the Herald of having a mil
lion of dollars of stoulings covered by the name of
that brother, it is known that that l>rother was
with him in New Orleans, and did a very large and
protitabie business of a very ijaestionablc character,
lie hac died worth two millioos, oae hall of vfhich
he has leti tu his brother, the General, and the otlier
half beiwt^en his wife and i hild. Ttiis is :in instance
ot “hoiioj among thieve^." The propt-ny being all

the Fiaj^; all iluj tracts were mere abolition tirade.s,
with no word of spiritual instructi-m. Th>* preac h
er who had tJie general snpermtendejice at Point
Lookout distributed none but the vilest politicnl
tracts and ]>a|)er;i and never gave a word of spiritual
t»aching or wurnin^. -Repent of your sins and
tiike the oath,” was wluit he taught, and many we^k-
micded men wi-re beguiled by him, e^tpecially those
who felt themselve.- to getting Pick—for sick men
always died in the camp—but if they took the oath,
they were carried to the U. S. General Hospital aud
well treated, and for each one who was converted
bv this mail o4 God, and became “a star in his crown
of rejoicing,'’ be got fifteen dollars in gretu-backs.”
The following scene would be incredible if the
gentleman who de^^cribea it were not entirely to be
depended on:
“At Ft. Delaware, some time in July of last year,
an official statement wut read to the yankees at
dress parade, to the effect that Vicksburg and Pt.
Hudson had fallen in the West, that iu the East,
Charleston had fallen, and Lee’s army was entirely
annihilated, that the war was ended, it only remaiu-
injf to occupy the conc|uered country. North Caro
lina had alrealy come back into the Union. This
was done by the way to diAconra;^ the privates and
make them teke »bc oath, there being atwut W)00
confined on the Island at the time. A Chaplain
thinking this a suitable occasion to exercise his holy
office, got up to pray; he thanked God for the gr**at
Union victories, but found conaiderable fault with
the Almighty; telling Him that he had not done this
good thing quick enough; that many valuable Union
lives would have been saved if He had stretched out
his arm against the rebels sooner; but still wme
praise was due to Him for having at last done what
It was His duty to do. The Reverend gentleman
then went into holy raptures over “this glorious
Union,” in the midst of w^hich some one cried out
"threv cheers for the Uniou.” which were according
ly given; another cried out “three cheers for the
C haplain." aud the«e were given vociferously. After
this striking interlude, the Chaplain went on with hiB
prayer, thauking Go«l tliat He had put it into the
hearts of the brave Union soldiers so mghly to val
ue the Union, and so highly to appreciate and com
pliment the Lord'4 humble servant as to cheer him
for kis devotion to tJie Union canae; and after he
said amen, the audience set up a loudt'r cheer thau
ever."
The Chaplain of the Post at Point Lookout being
ai^ked by a Confederate how he, being a MinisU'r of
the Gospel, could advocate doctrines so widely oj>-
posed to the Bible, said; “Do yon suppose I pm
my faith to 30 poor, pitiful, contemptible a concern
at! the Bible,” and he went on farther to say that the
(lod of the Bible wa»-i mortj pitiful and contemptible
than the Bible; that he w;ia guided by the law of his
consoience. and a law higher than the Bihlc or Gk1

A minute or two later, another branch of our ser

lug view of the crop#:
"The wheat crop in this and the adjoining coun-
li«! ie unuBually promising; and the oat crop, which
nad Ijeen ref^arded as almost a failure from being
tiftdly winter killed, has greatly improved under late
propitioub aeasous and now proniise.i something li.se
an average yield, (,'orn ia lut«, but auind* are govjU,
aad tiiare ic uo good rwisoa to fear any fallii^ off in
tM« important crojk ftom laitt yeax."
All tbe private accounts we have from Gen. Lane
are encouraging. Hw brother and Aid, Lt. Osciir
I>ane, who lost tii.s leg and 8om! toes of the other j
foot, haa had to undergo two amputations of the left
leg, but we are glad to learn Is doing well.
Tax Decksions.—We have seen a letter from the
Commissioner of I’axes, instructing one of the col
lectors to collect h4jtv the additional tax of 10 per
cent, on profits made by buying and selling in 1H63.
The additional 10 per cent on the profits made iu

stalt>ment yet reniaiuii unrecorded. Petersburg's
bravest and best blood llowed freely yesterday, and
many a household has beeu pluntred into the most
incouBolable grief. We witnessed scenes yesterday
afternoon, which we trust we may uever witness
again.—Pf f- F.iprevf. I0(h.
[Uur loss iu killed was II, in wounded 27, and in
prisoners about ;iU—most of them citiRcns of Peters-
Durg, serviu^’in the militia. Immense congregations
attended the funerals of the killed on Friday ]
The Kxpressofthe llth learns that the Yankee
loss was about 150 men, '2 pieces of ariiUery, und
24 horses.
A communication in tbe same issue .■states that
one of the pieces of artillery was taken by t’ol
Ferebee’s 4tfi N. C. t'avalry, the only troops besides
the militia and (jraham'a battery engaged. They
reached the ground when the Yankees were in pur
suit of the militia retreating alter a gallaut resis
tance, and their sharpshooters, under Lt, Col. Cant
well, immediately checked the enemy.
77(- ^^iluution.—There has been but little contiict
of arms during the past few days. The enemy an'
reported fortifving and ditching extensively beyoud
Uig Shanty. The position of our aimy is most ad
mirable for defence and really covers a battle site
more fonnidable und defensible than it haa been since
we left the gaps at Dallas. The front we present
controls all the roads which concentrate douth of
tennesawridge and furnishes a safe barrier against
the enemy and great security to us.
