E. O. GOODRICH, EDITOR. TOWANDA : Thursday Morning, May 28, 1863. THE LATEST WAR NEWS. A' dispatch from Murfreesboro dated 22nd, says : " Gen. Stanley, with a portion of two brigades of cavalry, surprised the camp of the Ist Alabama regiment and the Bth Confeder ate Cavalry, iu the viciuity of Middletowu.— Oar forces were divided and sent arouud to attack the rebels in the flank and rear,but the advance guard becoming impatient, they dash ed alone and unsupported into the midst of the enemy's camp, putting to flight 1,000 reb el cavalry. Eight rebels were killed, 90 pris oners taken, and 200 horses captured. The camp of the enemy, including the arms thrown away by them, was destroyed. Our loss was two or three slightly wounded." On Tuesday morning two detachments of the 3d Regulars left Memphis, by different roads, in search of a baud of guerrillas. A few miles out the two detachments came iu collisiou, each mistaking the other for guer rillas. They immediate l ' commenced firing upon one and other, and kept it up till one party retreate'd. It is reported that seven were killed outright. A uumber were wound ed, one of whom has since died. The only rebel forces in Kentucky are mov ing bodies of guerrillas, but the rebels are pre paring for an invasion in June. Morgan has left bis-command at Montieello, and gone to Sparta, Tenn. Pegram's forces are still be tween the Cumberland and Montieello Va rious reports say that Price is moving toward the Mississippi River,and had at last accounts erossed the Arkansas. Marmaduke is said to have joined him. The United States steam transport Ellen S Terry, from Newbern, N. C , May 20, aud Hatteras Inlet, 21, with mails and passengers, arrived at New York on Sunday. She brought 250 men belonging to the 3d New York Ar_- tillery, whose time has expired, and also a number of other passengers. There was uoth ing new at Newbern. FOREIGN NEWS. —The emigration of Irish to the United States is now so extensive that, in stead of four steamers leaving Cork harbor each fortnight, there will be seven in the same space of time, for some months. A4ate let ter from Cork says :—" The Inman Company have increased their saiiings by an additional vessel fortnightly, and the Cnnard Company has advertised its intention of starting an ex tra steamer every second week. In addition to this increased conveyance, the Montreal Ocean Company will this month resume its trade between Europe (via Queenstown) and Canada. Next week the CuuarJ Company will despatch the steamship Sidon from Liv erpool on Tuesday, and Queenstown on Wednesday. Ou Wednesday aud Friday the steamships City of Baltimore and Kankaroo, belonging to the Inmau Company, will leave Liverpool and the following days Queenstown, atid on Sunday the Cunard steamship will leave Cork harbor." Saunders' News Letter , of Dublin, a British torv organ, remarks oa this: " From the facts which have lately transpired it is not expected that there will bo any fur tber consular denials that this increase of transport is demanded by the enlistment of young men in Ireland for service in the Unit ed States army." The Tuarn Herald , speak ing of the exodns, says :—" The exodus of the people from Mayo and froai this county (Gal way) is becoming every week more extensive. Whether for good or for evil, the stream con tinues to swell and flow on uninterruptedly, and the emigrants may now be reckoued by hundreds from some localities." A Dundalk paper says : " No less thau one thousaud em igrants passed through Dundalk last week on their way to America and Australia. They are rushing out of the country as if to avoid some terrible disaster." The Western Star remarks :—" We have never known so many people to leave this district withiu a week as from Sunday to the present. On Sunday long lines of cars, laden with emigrants and their friends, arrived in Bullinasloe, the former leav ing by the evening train. On Monday and Tuesday there were similar arrivals—nearly all well dressed and comfortably looking young men and women, evidently belonging to the class of small farmers. The destination of these people is generally New York." The Clare (Ireland) Advertiser of the 13th of May aays : " We wituessed a novel feature on last Monday. The trade band of the town, 'in full fig,'escorting the emigrauts to the quay, playing ' Patrick's Day,' ' Garryowen,' 'White Cockade,' &c., in dashing style, and with such a martial air as wonld be highly interesting to an American recruitiug sergeant, if he happen cd to be present. A crowd of over three thousaud persons cheered for America, aud groaned the British government. \ an Dorn's staff have published a card statiug that the General was shot in his own room by Dr. Peters. He was shot in the back of the head, while writing at his table. There had been a friendly conversation be tween the parties scarcely fifteen minutes be fore the uufortunate occurrence. Gen. Van D orn bad never seen the daughter of h's mur derer but once,and his acquaintance with Mrs. Peters was such as to couvice his staff officers, who had every opportunity of knowing, that there was uo improper intimacy between them. \ THE PAYMENT OF CAPTAINS OF COMPANIES. — We understand uncfficially, that an order has been received in this city, from the War De partment, to the effect, that the accounts of Captains of companies of the men now beiug mustered or hereafter to be mustered out of the service of the army, shall not be settled by paymasters, until the accounts of each offi cer have beeu approved and settled by the Ordinance Bureau, in Washington. It is al leged that great negligence has been shown by many officers in the enforcement of prop er care among the men under their command of arms belonging to the Government. In or der to correct the evil, all Captains are to be held strictly responsible for such arms, and until their accounts are properly adjudicated by the Ordinance Bureau, the amount due them ou their pay rolls will be withheld by the Government. Preparations for the practical applica tion of the Conscript Act are now rapidly go ing forward. The necessity for a large reserve force to sustain the offensive operations of our armies is so apparent that little time must be lost in providing it. The machinery is nearly all prepared, and efforts will be made to have a sufficient number of men drafted, organized aud somewhat prepared to take the field early in the fall. Meanwhile the terms of service of many of the volunteer regiments will expire and our present army will be somewhat re duced in strength. This will increase the need of reinforcements. If public confidence and enthusiasm are sustained by the progress of the National arrives, there will be little ornodiffi cnlty encountered io supplying them with any quantity of the materials of war. agy Vailandighnm arrived at Murfreesboro by special traiu on Sunday evening. Yester day he was sent by flag of truce to Bragg's lines at Shelbyville. He was very cheerful, and on taking leave of his escort told them that he was a loyal citizen of the United States. He made the same remark to Col. Webb of the Bth Alabama, to whom he was banded over. The Colonel told him he had read his speeches, but did not I'be him; he would, however, permit him to remaiu at his post until the pleasure of the authorities should be known. It seems doubtful if the Rebels will receive him; but he was given to under staud that if he returned to the Union lines the original sentence of imprisonment would be promptly carried out. THE PENNSYLVANIA RESERVES.—Brig. Gen. Crawford has been relieved by an order of the War Department from the Millitary Commis sion, and assigned to duty under Major Gen. Heintzelman, for the command of the division koown as the Pennsylvania Reserves. Gen. Seymour takes place of Gen. Crawford in the Commission. The assignment was made at the request of the Governor of Pennsylvania, in consideration of General Crawford's former efficient services and fine soldierly qualities, lie was with Anderson during the bombard ment of fort Sumter, Banks in the Shenan doah Valley and Cedar Mountain, and wlrle commanding the first division after Mauefield fell, was severely wounded at Autietam. COPPERHEADS DRILLING IN ILLINOIS—The Springfield(lll.) Journal learns that about 300 rebel sympathizers, fully armed, met at Dobsoo's Prairie, about twelve miles from Marshall, in Clark county, May 9th, for drill* and parade. They were instructed in the ex ercise by two men—one belonging to Morgan's gang, and the other to Gen. Price's army— and gave evidence that they were fully ac quainted with military tactics. Parties of Copperheads have been holding meetings and drilling at Castlefin, six miles north of Mar shall ; aUo at Martinsville. The meeting on Saturday seemed to be a concentration of the forces for parade, etc. KILLED BY EXPOSURE—The Copperhead de monstration in New York on the subject of Vallandigbam's arrest, was altogether too much for the respectable opponents of the ad ministration. The vulgarity, seditious rant acdjll-disguised treason there displayed appear already to have created a healthy reaction in favor of supporting the government at all haz ards, until this rebellion is crushed and its Northern sympathizers receive their just de sert in the shape of everlastiug ignoray, at the bar of souud public opiniou. These dema gogues have been clamoring for free speech, and now that is the very thing that has un done them. The steamer Delta, from St. Thomas May 15, and Bermuda 19th, arrived at Hali fax on Monday. The U. S. gunboats Vand erbilt, Wachusetts, Alabama, Oneida, and Chippewa, were in port at St. Thomas ; also, U. S. ship Shepherd Knapp, and U. S. bark Gemsbok. The bark Lucy Frances, Colby, brigs West, GuildrandsoD, and C. H. Frost, Bennett, were iD port, discharging coal for the U. S. Government. A despatch from Murfreesboro dated Monday confirms the previous reports that the rebels are falling back all along their lines, and that only a very small force was between that city and Duck river. The rebel cavalry General Forrest, had gone with his command to Mississippi. The rebel force at Tullaboma is said to number 5,300 men, cavalry aod in fautry. A despatch from Cincinnati states that the enemy crossed the Cumberland river ou Monday at Fishing Creek and Hartford, Ky., and after some skirmishing with our troops, were driven back The Capture of Vicksburg. WASHINGTON, May 24. Official details of the battle of Black Riv er. MEMPHIS, Ten n., May 23, 11 30 A. M. To Hon. E. iff. Sta iton, Secretary of War : The following dispatch has been received at these headquarters, and is forwarded as re quested : S. A. HURLBUT. Major General. VICKSBURO , May 20. Gen. Grant won a great and momenteous victory over the rebels under Gen. Pemberton on the Jackson and Vicksburg railroad, at Baker's Creek on the 16lh inst. Gen Pemberton had a most formidable po sition on the crest of a wooded hill on which the road passes longitudinally. He had about 25,000 men. The battle began 11 o'clock A. M , and was gained at 4 o'clock p. M. Its brunt was borne by Gen. Hovey's division and McClernard's corps, and by Logan's and Crocher's of Me- Pherson's. Gen. Hovey attacked the hill and held the gfpater part of it till 2PM, when having lost 1,600 men he was succeeded by Boomer's and Holmes's brigade of Crochers' division, by which the eouflict was ended in that part of the field. Gen. Boomer lost 500 men. Gen. Logan operated on the right and cat off the enemy's direct, retreat, so that he was compelled to escape by his right flank through the woods. General Logan lost fonr hundred killed and wounded; we took about teu thousand pris ODera. On the 171h, advancing to the Big Black, we fought Pemberton again at the bridge there, and captured three thousond prisoners. He fought in rifle pits protected by a diffi cult bayou full ofabattis. Gen Lawless' bri gard of Mt-Clernand's corps, charged the rifle pits magnificently, and took more prisouers than their own numbers. General Pi mb°rton burned his bridge and returned to Vicksburg with only three cannon out of sixty that he had taken out, building four bridges over the Big Black. Gcr.. Grant arrived before the town on the evening of the 18th, and now holds it closely invested. He had opened a line of supplies via Chickasaw Bayou, having cut the town off from Haines' Bluff, which is abandoned by the euemy and which Gen. Giant will occupy. There was sharp lighting through the day yesterday Gen Steele now holds the upper blnff and the enemy's upper water l attery,and gets water from the Mississippi Gen Sherman's corps lost yesterday five hundred killed and wounded General McPherson, who holds the centre, lost little as did General McClernatid, who holds the left. The gunboats kept the enemy alert during the uight, and probably the town will be car ried to-day. There are Iroin 0 teen to twenty thousand men in it. OFFICIAL DESPATCH TO THF PRESIDENT. WASHINGTON, May 24. 11 o'clock A. M. To-dav the President received the following telegraphic announcement that " Vicksburg is ours." CLEVELAND, Ohio, May 24. A dispatch from Mr. Fuller, the telegraph manager at Memphis, late last night, said that the Stars and Stripes now float over Vicks burg, and the victory is complete. I ImVe held this message, hoping fo get the confirmation, but. the line has been inteirupt ed and I now give it to you as it reached me. I think the line will be all right soon. Arrival of Gen. Banks at ftiexandria. WASHINGTON, May 23. The Navy Department has received the following from the Mississippi squadron : FLAG SHIP, GENERAL PRICE, [ GRAND GLLF, Miss., May 23, 1-63. ) SIR : I hod the honor to inform you from Alexandria of the capture of that place and the forts defending the ap proaches to the city hy the naval forces under my command Twenty-four hours after we arrived, the advance guard of the United Slates came into the city, and General Banks arriving soon after, I turned the place over to his keeping. The water begining to fall, I deemed it pru dent to return with the largest vessels to the mouth of the Red river. I dropped down to the forts De Rusey in the Benton, and under took to destroy those works. 1 only succeeded, however, in effectually de stroying the three heavy casemates command ing the channel, and a small water battery lor ten guns, about six hundred yards below it. I also destroyed by bursting,one heavy thir ty two pounder, and some gun cajriages left in their hurry by the enemy The main fort is on a hill some 900 yards from the water. I was unable to attend to it. It is quite an ex tensive work, quite new aud incomplete, but built with much labor and pains. It will take two or three vessels to puil it to pieces. I had not the powder to spare to blow it up. The vessels will be ordered to work at it occasionally aud it will soon be destroyed. In the last mentioned fort was mounted tbe II inch guii, which I am led to believe lies in the middle of the river, near the fort, there bels throwing it overboard in their pauic at the approach of the gunboats. The raft which closed the entrance I have blown up, sawed in two and presented to the poor of the neighborhood. I sent Commander Wood worth,in the Price, with the Switzerland, Pittsburg and Arizona up the Black river to make a reconnoisanee. Commander Woodworth destroyed a large amouut ofstores valued at three hundred thou sand dollars, consisting of salt, sugar, rum, molasses, tobacco and bacon. _ (Signed) DAVID D PORTER, Acting Rear Admiral, Commanding tbe Mississippi Squadron. Alexandria is a post village, and the cap ital of Rapides parish, Louisiana, on Red riv er, 350 miles bv water W. N. W. from New Orleans, aud 150 miles bv the course of the river from its mouth. Stearahoats ply fre quently at all seasons bet ween this town and New Orleans, and they can also ascend many miles further. The village is pleasantly situ ated on a plain in the centre of a rich cotton growing region. Population abont 600. In apportioning the draft, says the N. Y. Evening Post , credit will be given to each State for the uumber of troops already furnished, but three years' men will be con sidered as equivalent to only two regiments, and four regiments of nine months' mcu to oue regiment of three years' mcu. General Orders—No. 137. WAR DEPARTMENT, Adjutant-Gen. Office, ) WASHINGTON, May 18, 1863. F I. Whenever enlisted men are discharged alter two years' service, under ci'cumstances that entitle them to the bounty provided by the sixth section of the act of Congress,approv cd July 22. and the fifth section of the act approved July 27, 1861, the bounty due and remaining unpaid shall be credited upon their final statements and be paid like other arrear ages by the Pay Department. 11. The exercise of the powers given the medical inspectors of the army to discharge soldiers for disability, is suspended until their duties in this respect are defined by regula tions to be published hereafter. By order of the SEC. OF WAR E. D. TOWNSEND, Assistant Adjutant-Gen. ASay The Richmond papers publish among their killed and wounded, Lieutenenant Gener al Jackson, dead; Brigadier General Thomas killed; General A. P Hill,wounded; Brigadier General Faxton, killed; Brigadier General M'Gowan, wounded; Brigadier General Heth wounded; Brigadier General Nichols, wounded and leg amputated; Brigadier General Hope, wounded. Every staff officer of A. P. Hill was either killed, wounded or captured. Half of Jackson's staff shared the same fate. BAP FAITH. —The rebels at Fredericksburg sent a flag of truce to our line 3 after the re cent battles, requesting that surgeons and nurses be sent over to take care of our woun ded left on the battle field ; but when our surgeons and stewards reached the opposite side of the river, they were not permitted to visit the sick, but were told that they were not sent for, and if they did not speedily re turn,they would themselvs be put under guard. Not satisfied with this, the perfidious rebels seized the hospital stores oor people took with thern. They said they had captured surgeons enough to look after our wounded. iictu a&bcrttsnncms QWEEDISH TURNEP SEEDS BY THE pound, tor sale at FOX'S (CODFISH, MACKEREL.
