redericksburg, May 13. --I have received the Washington Chronicle, of the 11th inst., and send you a brief summary of what it contains: Gen. Peck has issued an order to his troops congratulating them on the siege of Suffolk being raised. L. H. Chandler has been nominated by a Union Convention at Norfolk, Va., for the Federal Congress. The bridge over Big Black Bayon, the Yankees say, has been destroyed, thus cutting off the rebel retreat from Vicksburg. On Sunday, May 3d, a tug-boat was destroyed in front of Vicksburg, in which six correspondents were lost, and twenty other persons. Dispatches from Rosecrans's army represent that the rebels intend that the Union army shall make the advance. The French have taken Puebla, in Mexico. The Journal of Commerce says: "We call on conservative men in all parts of the land to raise their voices now against every proposal for peace and disunion. Every energy must now be strengthened and exerted. It is

Later from Europe. the United States and England the Peterhoff question Amiable Disposition of Seward — the "Times" Fatting both sides on the back, &c., &c The steamship America, from Queenstown, May 3d, with two days later news than the Bohemian, has arrived at Halifax. The news from Europe (according to the Yankee journals) is more pacific. The case of the alleged privateer Alexandria is set down for a speedy trial. An agent is to be sent to assist Mr. Adams towards an early settlement of all cases as to seizures or searches at sea. The Times cautions British Union sympathizers not to favor a precedent for search of neutral vessels at sea, which may be used to "harass" English commerce in all parts of the world, and adds that if American writers are to be trusted, England will have to call "all the weapons she may possess" into play before long.

thousand men before it was accomplished. He then pushed on as directed, the enemy making what resistance he could at every favorable point. In the afternoon he came upon the enemy, reinforced by Wilcox's brigade from Banks's ford, and McLaws's division from the rebel main body, strongly posted on commanding ground near Salem Chapel, about half way to Chancellorsville. He attacked at once and continued the attack until dark, but failed to dislodge the enemy in front of him. During the day, May 3, Gen. Hooker had one corps, and only one, engaged for a short time in the morning; but during the rest of the day he did nothing. Sedgwick's guns were thundering in his ears, the very rattle of the musketry reached him; he knew that Sedgwick was coming to his relief, that the enemy were sending heavy reinforcements from his front to resist Sedgwick's advance, yet he never fired a gun to encourage him, although on the night of the 3d (Sunday) Sedgwick was within five miles of his lines.

Later from Texas. Texas papers of the 29th ult. contain some interesting intelligence. A Monterey letter to the Galveston News, dated May 3d, says: Major Harness, from California, is here on his way to Texas, whither he goes to join the Confederate army. Both the Major and Col. Jack Hays, well known in Texas as one of the leaders of our Rangers during the Mexican war, were arrested on the 24th of March last, at the port of San Francisco, where they had embarked for Mazatlan, in the State of Sinalia. They were brought before General Wright, in command of the California Department, and released after having been interrogated about the object of the trip, their intentions, etc. Gen. Wright threatened to confiscate Jack Hays's property, which I believe to have since been sold by Hays, as he is now in Mazatlan. There are nearly five hundred Southern families in Mazatlan, who have fled from California to escape their being insulted and persecuted by the cowardly Yankee c

to discover the force with which we were defending the line at Fredericksburg. As soon as they observed our move from the heights of Stafford, with their balloon, they began to countermarch, again threw down their pontoons, and reoccupied their old position about dark of Saturday evening, at the Bernard house, just below Fredericksburg.During Saturday night they also crossed opposite to the town, and, for the first time during this move, occupied it. The "dawn's early light" of Sunday, May 3d, found Hooker half whipped and his army considerably demoralized at Chancellorsville. Whilst at Fredericksburg, Early was lying int he trenches confronting Sedgwick's corps, and awaiting his onward move. Soon after day the enemy opened with their artillery from their positions both at Fredericksburg and at the Bernard House. This they kept up until about nine o'clock, when, having massed their troops in front of Marye's Heights, they buried their columns against the stone-wall — the first

Grant to Prop the falling fortunes of Yankeedom — the rebel forces.[from the New York Herald, of May 3d.] In Louisiana, Florida, and North Carolina we have had the commencement of active operations for the season; but it is a commencement that has not had a very pleasant effect upon the public mind. Gen. Banks's whole movement in Louisiana is publicly denounced as an Administration cotton stealing expedition — an operation in which no success could have tended to shorten the war, in which disaster must have a had moral effect upon our cause, and in which, whatever the result might be, the

The late accident in the President's family. --The late sad accident and terrible bereavement suffered by the President and family, called forth the deepest sympathies of the public. From a private letter of a Confederate officer--though not intended for publication — the Selma Dispatch copies the following description of the scene of the accident, and the President's household, upon the occurrence of the sudden affection: Florence, S C, May 3.--I left Richmond on Sunday morning, 1st of May. On the evening before I found myself at the President's house up stairs, by a sad and singular accident. Having finished all my business with the Department I strolled with Judge H of Mississippi, to look at the city, and passing the President's mansion we paused to look at the scenery beyond, when a little girl ran out of the house crying to the next door and pulled the bell violently; in a minute she was followed by another, and then by a little boy the picture of the most utter de
