A LxTENjrvv York Paper.—We are indebted to
Lieat. J. A. McAllister, of the “Cumberland Plough
Boys,' 24th Reg t, for a New York Herald of the
2Cth May. It contains many columus of dispatches
from Grant’s army, abounding with accounts of pre
tended triumphs, Lee’s retreats, (irant’a pursuits,
ic. fcc. That these statements were not credited,
iH manifest trom the steady advance of gold iu New
\ ork. Indeed, the statements themselves are con
tradictory. In one place, the w»oiiiugion Kepnbli-
can, Lincoln’s especial organ, says that “Lee had
commenced a hasty retrt^at, pursued with great vigor
by Grant,” whilst iu several dispatches it is plainly
admitted that Grant had withdrawn from before
I.«ee. Une letter says, '*'l’hey [the rebels] confess
having been taken entirely by surprise at the sudden
withdrawal of our army from about Spottsylvania C.
H. ” And again, another account says: “Our forces
the yankeesj are in possession of the inside track,
^■i-sides the advantage of 24 hours start.” Another
"The troops following in our reur were an-
t'lved by the enemy’s [rebels’] cannon, but our corps
happily escaped these parting rebel salutations.”
Vt-t in the face of all this proof the Herald says in
own double-leaded editorial, that, “Dislodged
fr'm his strong position at Spottsylvania C. H„
].ee has been so rapidly/oZ/om cc/ up in his
•(rt'it as to be unable to organize hLs forces for a
'WiWrate stand on the North Anna river.” How
■ tterly callous must the Republican and Herald be
'u make such immensely important assertions when
their own columns show that they are utterly false.
The Herald predicts editorially, that Lee’s next
ni'iv'Bment may be “a retreat into North Carolina
■'1th such pluoder as he may be able to carry off.”
i.«e has made several movements since lliat date,
'”Ji not that one.
.'Jtaiiton, the yankee Secretary of War, telegraphs
vO Gen, DLx as follows:
“Ihe prisoners captured are in a great part North
Liirolinians, are much discouraged, and say that
W haa deceived them.”
A likely story, indeed!

T»8 Cosfbdsbatk TxxRs.~The Richmond Sen
tinel publiahtts the following regulation of the Tax
Bureau upon a point about which there have been
frequent inquiries
“Bonds and certificates issued in purauance of the
^'ond section of ‘an act to reduce the currency and
to authoru» a mw issue of bonds aud notes,’ ap-
feT,^ February, 1864, will (provided no
iTut shall have been paid upon, them) be received
without int^st in payment of taxes, until and on
the 3Ist ot December, 1864, but not afterwards; con
sequently not tn payment of tajcea on salaries or
m-omes of (^e year 1864, nor in pavmen/ of taxi\
on sales or recaptsfor quarter ending on 'the las
day of said year."
1 he Sentinel adds that the net “profits” ol mer
chants are “income.” and taxed as such; consequent
ly they, like all others who pay an income tax, mav
not do so in four j>er cent, bonds or certificates.
1 he terms ol thp law on which the above regula
tion of tho Department is bas«»d. are as follows:
“Such bonds and certificates [the 4 per cents are
r*'ft'rred to.] shall he receivable without interest in
payment ot all (Jovernmeut dues payable in the vear
1»64, except e.\port and import duties.”
The Sentinel urges Congress, and we think with
rea,son, to change the law .*^o to allow the tax on
incomes of 1864 and on sale.? of the la.'(t quarter to
be paid iu 4 per cents.
Pat or
CoxcKKss.MKN.—A bill it) before Congress
to double tho pay of members. W'e have always ad
vocated a reasonable and even liberal compensation
to public officers, so as to secure proper men, by
enabling them at least to e.\iat on their salaries. It
is jjerfectly plain that the pay of Cougressmen is not
now sufficient for that purpose. A two months’
session would exhaust a year’s salary for board
alone. The memhera tihonld meet the question with
manliness, and vote themselves at least enough to
pay their board, as we were glad to see that our
Legislature did at its late session. It is quite likely
that the bill may be damaged by its being advocated
by that everlasting annoyance, Mr. Foote of Tennes
see, between whom and the Presj ‘-there is no love
lost,” if we may judge from the often expre.^s^d opin
ion ot the latter and his declaration while speaking
upon this bill. Ue said: ‘‘He did uot care what edi
tors said about members legislating for themselves,
to increase their own pay, and all such nonsense.
He stood in no dread of editors. He was not afraid
of any editor in the land. Kvery one of them had
increased his rates of profits sixfold and tenfold,”
ifec. &c. This is not exactly true, but what does Mr.
Foote care for that'/ Mr. Foote said “he would not
adjourn at all, but vot-e for the bill giving the mem
bers adequate pay, so aji to enable the meml>ers to
stay at tho Capital like gentlemen, and meet the is
sue. No dc’ubt. A session of three weeks, or even
of thre‘ months does not afford Mr. Foote time
enough to [>onr out all the flood.s- of gabble which he
ha« within him, and he would th**ref»>re pn-fer u>
have thi* wh4>le year Wfore him.
C%».sKKi»rR.\TK Stih'k.5 i.n I/o.vuo.v.—The London
correr-pondeJit ofUic Now York Times, .lipril 30th
says;—
OonfiMierHle.8tok. now, while Gen. (irunt is
marching on Richmond, and “the l>oldost holds his
breath for a time,” has gone up to 62. Here is a
chance for speculation. The news of a week or two
mav send it up 20 per cent, higher, or knock it down
to ‘}5, where it was a few months ago. If Gen. Lee
meets with a reverse, Lombard street will drop it.
As to the Confetlerates here, they are full of confi
dence, and sanguine of success. They art* prepared
for some defeats and disasters, but expect to hold
their own. and iJelieve that the North will cave, or
that France will recognize in behalf of Me.\ico, and
they feel sure that England will be eager enough to
join in such a rec«>gnition.”

[Our correspondent must recollect that in these
days prices scarcely remain fixed long enough for
the iuk to dry oo the newspaper which reports them.
So he will find that while tlour was quoted on the

price at $125 to $l.j()—just about what was paid by
onr South River friends, we suppose; their §228 of
old currency bring only S152. He must recollect
also that the price-' quoted of country produce are
the prices paid to the producer. He who buys to
sell must havp a i>rrw«:*, --• — «^u.n wuc, lor out

Crops and Laboukrs.—A “Lame Soldier” writes
us from Montgomery county that crops are late but
promising. Wheat is fine so far; the heads rather
larger'than common and filling well. He thinks the
crop will l>e abundant but fears that some of it will
be lost for want of laborers to gather it, as all our
brave boys have gone to face the enemy. He bega
that any spare laborers will go up to Montgomery
about the last of June with their scythes.

well, for the .sun shines warm. Vance ia gaining

THE WAR IN VIRfilNIA,
From the Richmond Dispatch of the 4th iniit.
Hm; FlghUng all aUag the Uaest
The lieay eTerywhere Bepalsed wUh great
Slaaghter!
Yesterday was a day of excitement in the city. At
a very early hour our inhabitants were aroused from
their slumwrs by heavy and incessant reports of ar
tillery, which seemed to extend from the right to the
left of our line. As usual, many rumors were in cir
culation during the day, but every thing subsided to
wards evening, unifier u knowledge of the fact that
the Confederate arms were every where victorious.
Selow we give a summary of re eut operations on
the lines.
In the engagement of Thursday evening our suc
cess was complete. Gen. Harly, commanding Kw-
ell’s corps, attacked the enemy’s right, driving them
at all points, and capturing over 700 prisoners, in
cluding 12 ofiicers. Au official dispatch from Gen.
Lee, received late the same night, says we drove the
enemy trom Turkey Hill, lherol>y gaining an import
ant position. As night closed in upou the scene, our
men re.«ted upon the^ arms in tS-iumph, having suf-
fert'd but small loss, and iiifiicted severe punishment
upon tho yankees. Our po.sition, which is naturally
a strong one, with the right resting upon the (.’hick-
ahominy at Sparrow s house, was made stnmger dur
ing the night, and e ve-y preparation made for a severe
battle on the tollowing day.
Yesterday morning the enemy soon after day-light
made an attack in heavy force upon the first corps
(Anderson’s) on tlie right, and the conflict gradually
spread along the line to the left, where it raged with
great intensity. A witness of the fight says that a-
mid the heavy roll of musketry and almost deafening
sound of cannon, he could at times hear the triumph
ant yells of our men as they hurled back the enemy
defiantly, intlicting heavy loss. It is a singular co
incidence that the lilies occupied yesterday were near
ly the same as those of the memorable 2d of Jun«.
1302, tnai or tnp enemy ttemg near mat neid by Mc
Clellan when he made his final stand bofore being
driven from the field of Cold Harbor.
At teu o’clock the enemy, driven back at all
points, ceased firing, and remained comparatively
q'liet during the day. It is reported that we took
800 prisoners. A Cabinet officer, who left the front
at one o clock, says that Gen. Lee’s stall' estimated
the enemy’s loss as great as that in the battle of the
Wilderness, if not greater, while ours was miracu
lously slight.
A wounded yankee officer who wks brought down
last evening, stated that they designeii the attack of
yesterday as a general one, hoping doubtless to take
a step in advance towards Ricnmond, or to gain the
road to unite with Butler, both of which dcsign»
were happily thwarted.
In the charge of Thursday evening. Brig. Gen'l
Lan(!, ol W ilco.x’s division, was severely wounded
in the hip, and Brig. Gen. Kirkland slightly.
'I'he heavy tiring that commenced about 6 o’clock
last e*ening, and continued until 9, is believed to
have proceeded from a renewal of the a.«sault by
the enemy upon our works, which was anticipated
by onr cumnmuders. An officer who left the field
at half-past 5 states that the tiring wa.s in front of
Gaines’s Mill.
CoiTcfSDondcuc-** Richmond Ni.-^patch. Iih inst.
Hattlk-Fikli. of Cold Oarbor, June 3, 4 P. M.
Gen. F.arly, commanding Kwell’s corps, attacked the
enemy’s right yesterday afternoon, and drove him
with great slaughter out of his works, suffering Imt
slight loss himself. Among his killetl was the brave
Gen. Dole.s, of Georgia. *
At the same time, Breckinridge, on the right, 8ui>-
ported by Wilcox, attacked the enemy on Turkey
liill, and drove them some distance, thus securing
au important position.
Skirmishing and picket firing all night.
This morning at daylight the enemy assaulted
Anderson’s corps (Lougstreefs) in the centre with
great violence; also, Breckiundge's and Hoke’s posi
tions. He renewed the assault seven times against
Fields and Kershaw, ot Anderson's corps. He was
beateu back each time with a loss that has no paral
lel, except at Spotsylvania C. H. Indeed, the bat
tle is but a repetitiou ot that at Spotsylvania, with
this important diliereuce: Uur own loss is almost
incredibly small. Anderson s loss, including Hoke’s,
will not reach TKK). ’
The enemy assaulted Karly also, but oaly on
and was repulsed wilh great loss. ^
The enemy gained a salient iu Breckinriilge's front,
and held it lor a lew minutes, but Finnegan’s Flori-
.»u.s svvept UieU4.back like a whirlwind. Our troopf
generally never toughl t>fctt»'r.
The euem v was repulsed at all poiiitvi b_v lo o’clock,
.'iUC‘ which liuie there has heavy skirmishing
only.
Our Itwis ju prisoners very slight, and we took but
few.

Nkah Gaikks s Mill, June 3.—The immortal
Second Corps of this army yesterday achieved a suc
cess which IS .secoud to none that has crowned the
Confederate arms during this campaign. By a pre
concerted arrangement a tiauk movement was uuder-
taken yesterday evening upon the enemy's right wing,
and most successfully e.\ecuted. About 3 o'clock
our troops moved forward, Gordon having the lead.
Our boys went forward with a will, driving the ene
my back from a Une of works erecting tor their skir
mishers, and from two lines which were protecting
their lines of battle. Not until our men had reach
ed the enemy's second line ot works did we tire a
gun. Up to that time everything had been carried
by charging. At that point the enemy made a stand
and fought us until nignt ended theconfiict. Heth's
division, ot A. P. Hill's corp.s, nobly sustained itself,
in connection with llodes and Gordoii’.s divisions,
m this masterly atl'air.
Our losses, it is supposed, will foot up about 300.
Rodes and Gordon captured 500 of the enemy aud
Heth 200 more. The enemy left over .>0 wounded
in our hands, to be cared for.
'I'he conduct of *11 the troops engaged iu this af
fair was excellent.
During the evening of yesterday Longstreefl^ line
was heavily engaged in skirmishing, aud just before
dark the enemy assaulted Hoke, on our extreme
right, but were gallantly repulsed.
To’dau's Operations.—As earlv a.** Bimr:.— *>-—1
»rniiirr «Ko —*> musscd OU our right,
opened a vigorous attack, in turn assaulting most
vigorously Kershaw’s front of Longatreet’s corps,
who repulsed them most successfully, and Hoke’s
front, who likewise resisted every on.set of the foe,
and intlicting terrible loss upon them. The ti'^htin*'
raged until 11 o’clock, when it ceased, exceptlieavy
skirmishing and cannonading, which were kept up in-
cesiiantly all day. At one time during the morning
Echols’s brigade, of' Breckinridge’s «livisioii, gave
way, but Gen. B. soon rallied his men, and at the
same time Finnegan’s gallant Floridians bounding
forward with a yell, drove the enemy back, recap
turing 3 pieces of artillery which for the moment
had been taken from us, and capturing, it is report
ed, 1 gun. In this allair Breckinridge is said to
have lost 200 prisoners, and the enemy took about
30 cannoneers with the guns which they temporarily
captured.
It is also said that the enemy were most hand
somely repulsed during the day in Iront of Rodea
aud Heth (m our e.\treme right. The slaughter of
the enemy has been quite heavy; some put it as high
as 10,000. 300 or 4oO wili cover our list of casual
ties. Among the wounded is Brig. Gen. Law of
Ga., slightly in eye.
The enemy did not fight to-day with the vim that
they displayed on the 12th of May at Spottsylvania
C. H.; and whilst a Colonel was taken prisoner on
our works, and his color-bearer shot dead in plant-
ing them upon our works, the men themselves never
got so near.
The situation at the close of the day was this: Grant
had made violent efforts to turn and break our right,
but had been most successfully repulsed and the
Yankee army heavily punished; our men holding
almost every inch of ground aud the Yankees gain
ing nothing. Like Spotsylvania C. IL, it is a most
disastrous and bloody ‘U;heck.” Butler is said to
have united with Grant, aud some ot his troops are
said to have been in the battle to-day. X.
w«sre rep«*tedly repulsed with heavy elauKhter.
ig Jg continued almost all night long, and yeaterday
was renewed with increased warmth. Everywhere along
tne uno til* enemy met with dl8oomfiture.k.Uen. Ijee was
m exceUfcnt spirits at the progress of the engagement,
^d, m response to an inquiry from a member of the
L/aomet, who was on the field, replied: "iilverythinic
on as well as I could expect” J ^
The slttught4*r of the enemy u described by partici
pants as iniinense. In Early’'? front the enemy had ap-
neareii m polumns nine deep, and rn-Miti seven charges,
but were repulsed eac h time with immense slaughter,
their lo8s*s footing up by the thousand. A continuous
hre was pjured into them by Early, and hnndreds were
shot Jowu while running. In front of Poaguc’s Battery,
which the enemy attempted to capture by assault, the
lai.tej s ueikl and wounded wert^ piled U|hiu each other,
so tluit when the battery tired across the field the shrap
nel and grap«? raked athwart them, leaving them finally
masses ol dismetnbered Ix^ies 'J he entire lo.'iis of tlie
enemy m yesteniav’s engagement is e.stiniated at from

Our los.>.e.s were, in comfMU-i»ou with those of the ene

aud made many repeated assault* in very heavy column.
Th-y were all reptilscd. and with jrreat slaughter of the

Iu front of Kershaw's line, we were told that there
could be Counted, from one spot, about r>0lyankees, eith*jr
slain or too l>adly wounded to move them.selves. If we
take this r>utub*tr as a basis, aud bi,*ar in mind that Hoke

Grant s loss must lie eEtimated very high--perhaps ten or

.skirmishing operations. Armed with their long ranged
guns, provided with t;kecopic sights, they climbed trees
>a the di.stance, aud fire at every one who exposes his per
son aUive our l>reastworks. Our soldiers owe it to them-
•"jIvcs and their country to afford them fewer taigete for
their practice.
The ol»ject of the enemy in directing his as.sauU upon
the part of the line we have indicated, was doubtless to
jtaiu po.*si‘s-;ion of the hills and strong positions abcut
^laii'oe’s Mill, which lies in the rear ol our line at that
point; aud to open up a way, it possible, to Bottom’s
Bridge, and a union there with BuHer. Ue has been sig
nally and di.'^astron.sly defeatS'd of his object.
In short, yesterday was a happy day lor us, and a dark
one for Grant. In conuection with the evening before,
we have lost no ground ou our right, we have gained
largely on our lefi, we have taken nearly 2U00 prisoners,
we have put Aor» du combat ,>erhap.>* 10,t«W yankee sol-

UOVKRNOR VAHOE.
. Hrmarks made by Mr. Sheptierd, of Cuntberlaud aud
Harnett, on thfS resolutions of compliment to Gov. Vance,
and the amendment of M r Cobb to include Prea’t Davla.
Mr. 8peakeh I may say without any alTectation, that
the course of this debate has given to mv mind a feeling
of sad r^fret 1 had hoped that tlie qneation before the
nonse could have been disposed of vdthout any devel-
opinent of political bias, or even the slightest phase of
prejudice, without excitement, and without a au^restion
whicli might disturb our equanimity and misled or con
fuse our judgments. While I approve all that ii said In
the amendment of the gentleman from Eilgecombe, yet
as a matter of taste I would not have offered it mvself
in IhLs conne-vion, but would have preferred to see a di-
rect vole on Uie resolutions of the Senate. Pontrorersy
now, if It run into more political issues—which mav be
passed oy as things of other days—can accomplish' no-
thiDij for U3 that id good. Our distractions, our troubles
in the present are large enough. To the great and terrible
struggle before u.s—the cause of independence to the
comfort and support of our brave and heroic men, now suf
fering so much for the sake of their country in the field,
must our highest efforts and best energies be directed
Whenever we cannot agree, we must act in a spirit of ac
commoilation, and for the sake of the State must abstain
from eonrtiet over the political contests of the past—
where crimination moves the pride and the sensitive
spirit of members to the exhibition of deep and strong
fwliiif;—let us resist the dangers that may result and
earefully nourish that charity which “hopeth all things,
endureth all thin;^s.” Let no bitU-rness rule us in this
hour; and while we ditfer, aud may well differ, in other
matters of pulilic concern, we must unite, wo must make
the needed sacrificc of prejudice or of party pride, if such
there be, to add a nobler impulse and direction to our
aitiis— and strike together for the honor of our State.
1‘or my own part, .Vlr. tipeaker, I am prepared to vote
for the Senate resolutions cheerfully, with or without the
amendment. In uttering this purpose towards Goveruor
Vaiice, I shall not vote for him under protest. I will not
subj«>ct him to the discredit and humiliation of being a-
dopted M a choice of eviU. 1 repudiate such a thought
aUogettoer. I declare earueetly and deliberately, that
be has my support liecause I feel that in this jtuc-
ture of our affairs, the honor of the State is Itoand up in
his election. I appreciate his patriotic spirit, his fidelity,
his energy ol actioti, aud the 'mpulses which govern him
in there troublous times, I feel the assurance that every
pulsation of hie heart—his highest wish—Is for the tri
umph of our arms and the independence »f the Conftde-
rate States: aud. so filing, I shall give to him my lull
support. From this purpose nothing shall move me, un
less 1 am called upou to turn away &om the support of
the President, To this alternative I need not look—of
this collision I need not feel a dread—for the glory of
the Confederacy is tha’t of North Carolina—one honor,
one safety and deliverance, a common independence won
by the b.‘st blood of the country, shall be the lot, the in
heritance of us all.
