indicates not only a keen appreciate's of peril, bit

with fifteen hundred troops have been, taken

et, acua:ed should the enemy approadh it, and Mil
all our - troops will he concentrated at - this point till
we receive reinfsr,Nen m's to recapture the strong .
hold they have taken. The Newbern .Times of to
m ay, has the following account of the capture of
the town: •
• On Sunday last, the 'l7th instant, a formaidible
confederate force, numbering some twelve thou
e.ancl or fifteen thousand men, made their apptac
once in Irina of illymenth, and about 5 o' clock P.
M. commenced a vig . erous and determined attic,:
upon-vitt outw.orks, and kept up the ileh
unlit
two hours after dark. The rebels brought a large
artillery train of heavy rifled guns, and a large
force of sharpshooters.
On Monday morning, at 5 o'clock, the rebels
opened Ilre again on Fort Gray, and made a des
perate assault on what is known as the "Eighty
rifth Redoubt,', , from itslia.ving been built by that
regiment. This assault was repulsed- oy our
troops with great slaughter among the lobe's. The
rebels have a battery of heavy rifled gun s'planted,
which completely rakes the river, arid whieh sunk
the Bombshell with fifteen shot.
At 3 o' clock over five brigades Came out into the
field about three-quarters of a mile from the forti
fications and formed a line of ba.tle nearly A mile
long. Shortly after a section of light artillery gal
loped out in treat of the rebel lines, and opened
fire upon our lines. A gun from Fort \Vessels
opened on this section with grape and canister
Every horse connected with the rebel ba tory was
shot, and nearly every man was hit. in counec •
lien with this movement, a furious Oaafioaade
commenced from over one hundred guns Furious
mid desperate assaults were made on Forts Gray,
winisins, and WeeSels, which were gallantly 're
pulsed.
The rebel iron-c.lad, Heaneke, is within-a short
distaues of Plymouth, some five or six miles.
This boat has been more than twelve months in,
course of construction, at Halifax, as well as the
ones et Tarboro and Kinston. The plan seems to
be to commence these boats in the interior, and then
as the work progresses, move them into deep
water.
The troops at Plymouth are lighting manfully.
and to use the words of the navy commander in
the Albemarle, "fighting like the devil." Night
and day, they stand up to their work like heroes.
Brigadier-General Wessels is in command of the
Albemarle sob-district, and his army idolize him.
lie will do all in his_ power, and, we doubt not,
give a good account of himself and his brave boys.
At three o' clock on Tuesday morning the iron
clad ram made its appearance, and came through
the blockade, firing one gun. As she opened her
port to lire a second time, one of the gunboats
plumped a shell through the port into her interior.
he immediately closed'her port and ceased fir'ng.
She steamed directly for the Southfield, and, run
ning her pro ar under the bows,sunk the South
field. Pining the engagement mmander 0 W.
Fluster was killed. With his own hands he
trained one of his guns upon the ram, when the
shell rebounded upon his own deck andexploded,
killing him instantly. The rata immediately
steamed between Plymouth and the mouth of the
river.
Wednesday the cannonading was resumed, and,
communication being cut off with Plymouth by
means of theram, we have no positive news. A
rumor reaches us that Gen. Wessels and his troops
are concentrated in one of the fortspwith ammuni
tion and subsistence to enable them to withstand a
siege. Heavy firing at Plymouth was heard at
Bachelor's Creek during Tuesday night and Wed
nesday morning, which indicated that the gallant
Wessels and his heroic men were there undismayed
and 'moon uttered.
A rumor is in circulation that Gen. Wessels sur
rendered at 1 o' clock.

The United States Christian Commission has
seized the present golden opportunity of rest for
the -Army to extend its work for the good of th e
Soldiers .
STATIONS have been multiplied, each with Its
chapel and store tents, free writing tables, 'and
clothing, comforts ,and reading matter for gra
tuitous distribution. -
VOLUNTARY DELEGATES, in numbers
greater than ever before, have been sent to preach
the Gospel at the stations - and In regiments, mat.
teries and camps without Chaplains, distribute
reading matter and stores, and labor for the goodof the Soldiers.
A PERMANENT FIELD AGENCY has been
sufficiently extended to establish Stations and
superintend the work.
THE BLESSING OF GOD rests signally on all
cheered benefited. Many thousands have been
and saved. Still a large part
of the Army remains unreached, and double the
number, both of stations and delegates, are needed
to meet the urgent demandlorthertr. -
The Christian tiommission offers to the people a
perfectly reliable and Wonderfully economical
channel to reach the entire army in all its VariOUS
fields. The money given goes in full measure, •In
benefits for body and soul, directly to the Soldiers;
and stores also, immediately from the hands of
delegates from home, who add words and deeds of
kir dness to the gifts when bestowed.
