THE LATE ATTACK ON THE OUTMODE AND OHIO
RAILROAD.
The Road Guarded by the Ruudred-Days Alen,
WASHINGTON, May 6.—The Army of the Poto.
mac has passed the Wilderness which includes the
old Chancellorsville battle-ground, east of Lee*B
army, until it reached an open plain east southeast
of the Wilderness. It is stated that General Grant
took that route in order to flank General Lee.
It is also stated that the theory entertained by
officers there, was that General Lee - was still in
his works about Orange Court House. Many here
believe that it will be found that General Grant. has
flanked General Lee, and is between his army and
the works of Richmond.
The impression in military circles here 'ls that
General Lee has gone to Riehinond by way or Gor
donsville.
Nevertheless, the Government etedits the theory
entertained by the officers in the army.
Inforniation received here to-day by the Govern
ment, via Fortress Monroe, states that General
Peauregard is at Petersburg, with a force of thirty
thousand rebels.
There is no information whatever, derived from.
any reliable source, that , there has, up to this mo
ment, been any fighting ; while at the same time it
is reasonable to suppose that two groat armies, oe•
cupying the relative positions of Generals-Grant
and Lee. must have come in collision before • this
time.
General Grant has mot with no opposition as yet
in his 'onward movement. lie has not found the
enemy, who has retreated, it is supposed, to within
the lines of his entrenchments at Richmond.
RUMORED DEFEAT OF BURNSIDE-A. DE.
Nuw Yuma - , May O.—The World has issued •an
extra containing a report that on Monday last
General Burnside's adysenco waa Checked at Tho
roughfare Gap, by the rebel foreos under Long,
street. A battle is said to have occurred, resulting
in our defeat, with the loss of from 2,000 to 4,000
The negro troops are said to have become demora—
lized and threw down their arms, stampeding to the ,
rear.
This is untrustworthy news, and is emphatically
contradicted by a later telegram, which states ; on•
good- authority, that General Burnside is not ina
Position to he attacked.
DESPATCH PROMAG:ENERAL GRANT..
[Special telegram to the Times.]
WASIEINGTO?I, Thursday, May 5.—A despatch.
from Lieut. Gen. Grant to one of the generals here
Says that lofty-eight hours would determine whether
lie was to have battle on the Rapidan, or whether
tinder the works around Richmond. Grant's de
irpateirwas written yesterday.
THE ADVANCE OVER THE RAPIDAN
WASHINGTON, May s.—The Army of the Potomac
began- its forward march on Monday. The crossing
of the 'Rapidan was effected without opposition on.
Tnektay and Wednesday at Culpeper, Jacobs',
Germania, and Ely's Fords. No rebels were - seen,
except a few pickets, who retired as we advanced..
If Lee intends to make a stand this side of Rich,
mend, ib is possible he may be met near the old bat
tle-ground of Clumeellorsville ; but it is the general
impression that he has fallen back from•his position
on the Rapidan to Richmond, in order to, protect
that city from the formidable force now marching
upon it from the rear, and which is as likely to strike
on one side of the James River as the other. .
Culpeper is being strongly fortified, and will be
used as a depot for stores.
A letter from the army headquarters, dated
May 4, says :
"All day yesterday there was-nothing but bustle
and excitement in and around our busy &nips after
the fiat went forth to strike our tents, pack our
knapsacks, load our wagons, and prepare , to start on
our march onward to Richmond.,
" We have been looking for the order to marchfor
many days and wondering why it did not come ; but
we did not know the many mountains of obstacles
piled in front of a forward movement ; but it name
at last, and right heartily did our troops respond.
Never was an army in finer condition for marching
or fighting.
I am of the opinion that we shall not encounter
any large force of the rebels this side of the North
Anna river—certainly not in the immediate vicinity
of the Rapidan—or all appearances are deceptive.
The most reasonable conclusion / Can arrive at is
that General Lee will move down to the vicinity of
the North Anna in order to draw General Meade
from his base as far as possible before fighting, and
it is not at all improbable that there:will be nofight
ing until we get in the neighborhood of Richmond."
A - despatch of the same date says : The entire
movement of the army resolves itself into the cross
ing of the Rapidan river at two fords, towards the
right flank of the enemy, placing itself after cross
ing on a line nearly parallel with the river, between
Orange Court House and Chancellorsville. At the
present hour the movement is under way, and
there is a probability that it will be successfully
accomplished without severe opposition by Lee, to
whom this bold push must be more or less of a sur
prise. It is not probable that any serious engage
ment will be fought to-day. CavaTry . skirmishing
and artillery duelling are likely to make up the
day's fighting, unless the enemy contests the ad
vance in force.
THE 'WEST VIRGINIA FORCES UNDER
MARCH.
It is reported here to-day that a strong column of
trdops under G ens. Crooks and Sigel are marching
from Winchester up the Shenandoah Valley as a
eo!operating column, destined eventually to cut
the Virginia and Tennessee Railroad, while But
ler's force, of a part of it, strikes the other rail
road at or near Petersburg, thus severing all rail
road communication between Richmond and the
South.
It is a significant fact that for some time past the
Government authorities have been impressing all
the steamboats on the upper Ohio and its tributaries
into military service, it was thought, in the Kanaw
ha regloti.
TEE FLANK ADVANCE ON RICHMOND.
Gen. Butler has taken the field in person, at the
head of the army on the Peninsula, and his host is
IllarSitalled by such leaders as W. F. Smith, Gilmore,
Terry, and Godfrey Weitzel.
The movement assumes an expeditionary cha
racter. An immense fleet of transports, and a strong
squadron ofimonitors and gunboats, will convoy it
up one of those broad rivers to the gates or to the
back door of Richmond, and, perhaps, the iron-clads
may (MCC more try the strength of the rebel batteries
that line the James, the Pamunkey, and the Rappa
hannock.
A Baltimore rumor states, with some extrava
gance, that General W. F. (Eddy) Smith, with a
very large army, had disembarked on the south side
of the James river, not far from Fort Darling, on
Drury's Bluff, as the rebels call it. His object was,
of course, a matter of mere speculation—it might be
a feint to distract the rebels, and prevent the send
ing of reinforcements to Lee, but, if it was in earn
ea, it Meant that Fort Darling and Petersburg were
to be captured,, and Richmond cut elf from direct
railroad communication with North Carolina and
the rest of the South. If this news is correct, and
it is generally believed in Baltimore, tho occupa
tion of West Point on last _Monday was merely to
deceive the enemy.
THE WESTERN ARMIES-A GENERAL AD-
'The present movement is apparently a general
one, and on the grandest scale. General Sherman's
army, in Northern Alabama and Northern Georgia,
was to move on Monday last, in three grand
columns, to give the rebels battle. Al postpone.
ment of a day or so may have taken place, but we
shall soon have stirring news from the West also.
General Sherman's army is very large, and under
efficient organization and diScipline..
While it Is generally supposed that Sherman
will move on Atlanta, Ga., it is also thought that
his movement will be In conjunction with another
from West Virginia to get possession of the line of
theyirginia and Tennessee road as far as Lynch•
burg. The rebels have a very strong position at
Dalton, but not a great force.
A letter from General Sherman's headquarters
says General Sherman left for the front day before
yesterday. Ile has gone, to use his own words, ‘, to
give Joe Johnston a final hearing." There are
symptoms of an opening campaign, which I will
not detail, but which are unmistakable. Troops
pour through here to the front, and the aggregate
of effective men under Sherman must be something
gratifying to those who hope fora speedy tertni

CAIRO; May 6.—The following additional news
has bean received by the steamer Carroll : •
At Saline Fork the rebels wore turned upon and
repulsed, after a severe battle, in - Jwhich the loss was
about equal on both sides. Plarnsadulte was re
ported to be on the march to join Price, who, it was
supposed, intended to attack Little Rock.
The Pioneer, a light-draught steamer, left here
to-day for Red ricer, and it is hoped that site would
be aide to cross the falls with supplies,.
Diseoveries have been made in this city which
confirm the statement of negotiations between cer
tain parties at the North and the rebel General
Kirby ,smath, whereby tho letter was to secure
to the former the Confederate cotton west of
the Mississippi river, and receive in return goods,
ammunition, 60.

DEPARTMENT OF THE GULF.
Improbable Report of Disaster to Gen. Bajtks,
SENERAL STONE EXONERATED.
New Yoinr. May G.—The Commercial has a report
frem New Orleans that General Banks, on hit re
treat to Alexandria, was assailed by the Confede
rates in force, at Cane river, and suffered heavily.
Thirteen transports and gunboats are said to have
been blown up by his orders, to prevent them from
falling into the hands of the enemy. This report is
doubtful. .
[On the contrary, it is confidently stated, in more
authentic telegrams, that when near Cane river the
rebels pressed us closely, but were handsomely re
ptilsed by General Franklin, with the 10th Army
Corps, who captured 1,000 of them arid nine, pieces
of artillery.]
It is presumable that the rumor of Gen. Steele's
retreat on Little Rock may be also untrue.
Cottle, May 6.---Adviees from - Alexandria to the
27th, report that Banks' army was still there; but
would probably move towards the Mississippi river.
Admiral Porter was up the rirer, some silty miles
above Alexandria, where the - Eastport Was on, a
sand-bar. Her guns had been taken off, and her
plating was being removed for the purpose of light
ening her off. If this could not be done, she would
be blown up. Admiral Porter was without any in

Major General Hunter had arrived at Alexandria.

A GREAT SCENE IN FORT P ICE ERING-TEE SOL
DIERS ADDRESSED B] THE 11r/DONV OF MAJOR.
BOOTS. _
[From the Memphis Bulletin.]
On Tuesday last, April' 3, the widow of Major
Booth, the late commander at Fort Pillow, arrived
at Fort Pickering. below this city. Colonel Jack
son, of the 6th United States Heavy Artillery, had
his regiment formed into line for her reception. In
front of its centre stood fourteen men, as rine, brave
fellows as tread the earth. They were the remnant
of the first battalion of the regiment now drawn up--
all who had escaped the fiendish scenes of Fort Pil
low, scenes that havc stamped yet deeper WilcaineW
on the infamous brow of treason.
Alt's. Booth came forward. In her hand she bore
a Bea . , red and clotted with human blood. She took
a.poSition in front stf the fourteen heroes, so lately
under her deceasetthusband's command.
The ranks before her observed a gnome that wits
full of solemnity. Many a hardy face showed by
twitching lids and humid eyes how the sight of the
bereaved lady touched bosoms that could meet steel,
and drew on the fountain of tears that had remained
dry even amid the piteous sights witnessed on the
battle-field after a fierce action.
. . . .
Turning to the men before her, site said :
Boys, I have just come from a visit to the hospital
at Mound City. There I saw your contrades ; wound
ed atti,Le bloody struggle iu lfort Pillow. There I
recognize it. One
found this flag — Souof your com
rades saved It from the insulting touch of traitors at
Fort Pillow !
. •
I have given to my country all hail to give—my
husband—such a gift ! Yet I have freely gtven hitu
for freedom and my country.
Next my lilloband'a cold remains, the nest dearest
object left me in this worid,is this hag—the flag that
waved in proud defiance over the works of Fort Pil
low 1
Soldiers, this Bag I give to you, knowing that you
will ever remember the last words of my noble hus
band : " Never surrender the flag to traitors !
Col. Jackson then received from her hand, on be
half of his command, the blood-stained flag. Ho
called upon the regiment to receive it as such a gift
ought to be received. At that call he and every
man of the regiment fell upon their knees, and, so
lemnly appealing to the God of battles, each one.
swore to avenge their brave and fallen comrades,
and never—never surrender the flag to traitors I
The scene was one never surpassed in emotional
incident. Beside the swift-rolling waters of the
Mississippi—within the eticlosure that bristled with
the death-dealing cannon—knelt these rough sol
diers, whose bosoms were heaving with emotion, and
on many of whose cheeks quivered a tear they tried
to hide, though it did honor to their manly natures.
Beside them stood, in her grief, the widow of the
loved officer they had lost, and above them was hold
the bloody flag—that eloquent record of crime,which
has capped the climax of rebellion, and which will
bring a reckoning so fearful.
In few but pointed and decisive words Colonel
Alexander pledged himself and his command to WS
charge to-the uttermost the solemn obligation of
justice they had that day taken.
Colonel Happen followed him, expressing himself
in favor of such retaliatory acts as justice and the
laws of warfare require in a ease of such fiendish
and wicked cruelty. W. B. Me.

MEXICO AND ROME.
The Papal Nuncio to Mexico—Tire Next
The 'Vienna Pres,se recently contained the follow
ing curious article on the relations of Route with
the now Dierdenn Einpire, 'which we find copied into
the Message,' Franco-Americain ; and translated for
the Now York Evening Post : .

American Pkolodantim. nence the immense en

"By the erection of this throne Napoleon 111 tut
rendered an immense service. to the Church; and
this service is so highly appreciated by the Court. of
Rome that important concession. have been made
therefor by the Irench Government.
"In view of the advantages that the Court of
Pottle anticipates from Mexico, it has appeared ne
cessary to have itself represented there by a per.
sonality, decided and energetic. The Pope has,
therefore, chosen (in accordance with the advice of
Antonelli) as Nuncio to Mexico the Minister of War
of Rome—Monsignor de Ittorode, who on this occa
sion will be made a Cardinal. Ass illerode was not
on good terms with the French, it is thought, too,
that his distant appointment will be satisfactory to
the Court of the Tuillerles.
"But a greater concession made to France will bo
the speedy elevation at the approaching consistory
of the Abbe Lucien Bonaparte, long a resident of
Rome and the cameriere of the Pope, to the rank of
Us rdinal. •
"The Prince Lucien would then be eligible to the
Papacy, and upon the d4ath of Pius IX. the con

chance for election 7 Phis IX. can thus await the
end of his days in peace If a Bonaparte mounts

Emperor, and the Emperor of Mexico becomes, by
the l'oree of cirenmstenees, the mediator between
the Tuilletics and the Vatican."

Lieutenant Murdock invited one of the rebel offi
cers to - take dinner with him, and when dinner
was called, - Mr. W. H. Block, the clerk of the
boat, went to see that all the ladies were :seated,
and found that one of them was left. out of
her seat. Mr. Block said to the rebel officer that
he was in the seat occupied by a lady, and wished
him to take a scat at another table. Lieutenant
Murdock answered that he (the rebel) was !there
by his (Lieutenant Murdock's) invitation. Mr.
Block said that he could not help that ; that the
lady must have her seat. Lieutenant Murdoch
got up and gave his own seat to the rebel, but before
he had commenced to eat the Platte Valley was
ready to leave and the rebel went ashore, and Lieu
tenant Murdock resumed his seat at the table. For
proof of the introduction in the ladies , Cabin I will
refer you to Mrs. W. H../qoack, of Springfield. Illi

'Negroes Saving Miss:war' front the Draft.
It is stated in the St. Louis papers that the enlist
merit of fire thousand four hundred and ninety-one
negroes in Missouri saves that State from the draft.
Wet Only this, but there is a surplus of several Jinn=
sired. men to be carried to the account or the next
call for troops.
The effect of this movement is curious. Even the
Copperhead journals of the State, and such luke
warm loyalists as the conductors of the. St. Louis
ilqmblicon, overjoyed at the unexpected success of
the negro enlistment, begin to change their tone
towards the black man. Re is no longer the wretch
ed caitiff, the degraded slave, but a man—and, per-
Imps, if this sort of thing goes much further, a
brother. The Border-State animosity to the Oman
efpation movement, whieli has given no more troth•
ble anywhere than in Missouri, dies out very fast as
it is ascertained that the freedmen will not only
work diligently, but enlist willingly and light brave

PHILADELPHIA, May 6, 1861
Hong' continues to accumulate and rates aro soften
ing. gecueltlea are not so closely scanned while eani•
talists are disposed to look more kindly on applicants;
Everything points to a still more satisfactory state of
affairs. Gold was much excited over the news from
Virginia. and the contradictory rumors had their effect
in raising or depressing the price, which opened at 177
and fluctuated down to 1731,c. The success of General.
Glint is looked upon as pretty certain.
Government securities 'were about steady, some little
disposition prevailing to dispose of them by parties who
exPeCl to take them in at lower figures. They are the
few who look fo• reverses, etc.
The stock market gradually softened during the day,
and at the close the sellers far outnumbered the buyers,
producing a decided decline in prices. Pennsylvania
