    THE EST UR NW
HOOKER DEFEATED.
RICHMOND CAPTURED!
There have been , rumors after rumors of
• battles near .Ftiederiasburg,. for several
days, but the censorship of the telegraph .
. has unwisely kept most 'of the facts from .
the press and the pebple.
Gen. Hooker crossed the Rappahan
nock, last week, with the main portion of
-- his army • and engaged the Confederate
forces, under Lee. On Saturday, Sunday,
Monday and Tuesday; there was, accord
ing to all .accounts, very severe and de
structive fighting,. NVitIA, heavy loss on each
side and with varied, uccess,—sometimes
the Federals 'drivin the Confederates,
and at others the nfederates pushing
back the Northern troops..
- Our loss is not over 1-5,000.
Many of the reports are terrible gloomy.
One says: We have sad and dishearten
ing news from Virginia. The grand ar
my of The Potomac is in full retreat, .and
has recrossed the Rappahannock. Terri
ble battles Were fought, in which thous
ands of noble lives were sacrilieeck - and all
• to no purpose.
A brilliant eavidry raid was Made in the
rear of the rebels by Gen. Stoneman, who
. succeeded in breaking up Lee's communi
cations with .1 - itchniond, - both by railroad
and turnpike:. He destroyed the Ashland
Bridge on the Fredericksburg road,. then
•
proceeding to - Hanover Court. House he
tore up the Centriil track ,and destroyed
five other bridges of the Fredericksburg
road, and then, -purstfing his route to the
very defenses of Richmond, he destroyed - -
both the railroad and turnpike bridges
over the Chickahominv.
Hooker is severely criticised on all
sides. The T,ibane says that "there NN as
:no time from Friday morning to Monday
,night but that Hooktr could have attack
ed ,and defeated Lea's army. He lacked
the ability to give the order."-
Hailing no official, reports from the
.field, and Maier - paling better news, we
prefer not repeating, the crude' tales of
disaster, and await the clearing up of; the
dread Mysteries.
lIutRISBU RG, MAY S follotcing
despatch has just been -received by the
Governor, from Washinf-rt on :
The • Preitlent :Ma - General-in 'Chief
have jUst` returned front the army of the
PotOmae. The principle. operations
General Hooker failed, but there has been'
no serious disaster to , the - organization
and efficiency of the army.
It is Om; ocolipyilig its former Position
on the Rappahannock, having re-Crossed
the river without any loss - in the move- .
ment.
Not more than one-third of General
Hooker's force was en ,, av,4,(1.
Gen. Stopeznan's operations havelieen
braliant snecess. A part of his force ad
vanoed to.within two miles of Richmond,
and the enemy's c ommunications have
been cut in every direction.
The Arnly of the Potom-te will speedily
restuna offen:ic a operations.

Ve have reports that Gens. Keyes and
Peck have aavauced from Suffolk, and ta
ken Richmond; (which Stoneman report
ed' to- be undefended.) This is since doubt
ed. .Hooker re-crossed the river on Sat- .
untinV night, but found Lee gone.
. A Little- Good News.
We have a scrap of good news from
the West.- Grand Gulf has been Captured
and with it 500 prisoners and all, the guns
amunitioir and stores. Gen. MeClernand's
corps and Gen. Logan's division were, on
the 30th April, on the _march to Port
Hudson.,
FrOm the army of the -Srsintier we learn
that Colonel Philips crossed the Arkansas
-- river on .the night of April 24th, and -at
tacking the rebel forces there,
them ands captured all their carap.equip
age.
—A Philadelphia paper publishes what
it calls the dying • Confession of a Knight
of the Golden Circle, somewhere in Penn=
sylvania, in which the unhappy: . man lets
out the important secret that,';-.with' the
advance of General 'Hooker upon Rich
mond, the rebels intend to .evacuate the
place,- draw him into it, and- then, by la
rapid. tank miovement, get - behind hiM
and dash into Washington, and so on.=
This is an old story ; but at this day' it is
.a•ve.ry absurd one.

administration—otherwise-a copperhead."

Democratic 'paper, as "loyal

which men the'most radical supporter of
the administration Cannot object. It goes
the whole pig, ana by endorsing every
word of it, in the seusOn which it was
meant, we hope to.escape hereafter the
mortification of being, called " Copper
head," Rebel 'Sympathizer," "'Butter
nut" and "Traitor !" If • we could add
anything to this confession of faith We'
would che'erfull.do it. If we could con
scienfiously. say - that - We _believe Greely
to be a christian,,John WV: Forney a pat
riot; and the Constitution a "league .with
hell," :we would do so; -but at this point
Our faith:fails us. The Casette says :
" become entirely convinced
that, the administration is the Govern:
ment;' we propose to express some truly
loyal views in truly loyal words:
" We hold that Abraham. Lincoln - is the
greatest statesman of the agef that he is
.. informed on all matters of Government -
. policy;cand especially conversant with the
iutrieacies of the tariff; that he is a very
handsome man, a very refined man, a tho
roughly educated man, and has all the
training requisite for a-successor at Wash
ington and Madison, in the executive
•We hold, Also, that the aforementioned
LinciAa is honest,' and that his adminis
tration is distinguished for' the integrity
of all its members, and their appointees;
that Welles. never gate fat contracts to
Morgan ; that Cameron never dabbled in
frauds;_ that 14tcker never made money
out of transparks ; that _Fremont never
speculated in Ati - Arian muskets ; that Sew
ard and Stanton-violated no law in mak
ing arrests; that the Constitution requir
-kid Blair to exclude Democratic` papers
from the mails ; and that Chase is sincere,
frank and manly in his conduct; wearing'
hiS heart on his sleeve,' never sayini - one
thing and meabing another; and withal a
pure national patriot, holding himself a
bove all sectional prejudices.
" We hog inorover,' that the conduct
j'of the war, has :heed .marked by a brilliant
series of the most wonderful•vietories, ex—
cept a few instances-of disaster, `caused
by such CapPerlicats McClell'an and

LCCIDENT Iti CONNECTICVT,—It is
well known that, in the recent election in
Connecticut, soldiers who would vote . the
:abolition ticket were allowed to ka home
from the-arrny and vote. Some Democrats,
who were extremely anxious -to see home
oncei more, also pledge themselves to so
vote if they could be allowed to return
and see their friends.
One, by the name of Randall, having a
sick mother at Danielsonville, and wishing
to see her once more ere she should pass
from earth, -begged for a furlough, as a
starving child would beg bread ; and
at last, when all other :means had -failed,
consented to pledge himself to vote . . for
Buckingham. He came home; saw' his
dyitig mother ; went-to •Killingly town
meting; voted for Buckingham, as he had
ageed to ; and then stood up in the town
house and related these facts.---P4otstnouth
