ty. The next news, I suppose, will be the evacuation of Wilmington! Then Raleigh may tremble. Unless there is a speedy turn in the tide of affairs, confusion will reign supreme and universally. We have here now some 4000 or 5000 paroled prisoners returned by the Federal authorities, without sufficient food for them, and soon there may be 10,000 Federal prisoners from Wilmington, which it seems cannot be exchanged there. Is it the policy of their own government to starve them? Mr. Burgwyn, of North Carolina, writes to the President (11th inst.) that some 15,000 bales of cotton are locked up in Wilmington, belonging to speculators, awaiting the coming of the enemy, when the city will certainly fall into their hands. He says Gen. Bragg's orders regarding its removal are wholly disregarded; and he implores the President to prevent its falling into the enemy's hands, and disgracing his State as Georgia was disgraced by the cotton taken at Savannah. He says these speculators

sion. Pettigrew's brigade encountered the enemy in heavy force and broke through his first, second and third lines. The Eleventh North Carolina regiment, Colonel Leventhorpe commanding, and the Twenty-sixth North Carolina regiment, Colonel Burgwyn commanding, displayed conspicuous gallantry, of which I was an eye-witness. The Twenty-sixth North Carolina regiment, of its whole number, lost in this action more than half, in killed and wounded, among whom were Colonel Burgwyn killed, and LiColonel Burgwyn killed, and Lieutenant-Colonel Lane severely wounded. Colonel Leven-thrope, of the Eleventh North Carolina regiment, was wounded and Colonel Ross killed. The Fifty-second and Forty-seventh North Carolina regiments,. on the right of the centre, were subjected to a heavy artillery fire, but suffered much less than the Eleventh and Twenty-sixth North Carolina regiments. These regiments behaved to my entire satisfaction. Pettigrew's brigade, under the leadership of that gallant officer and accomplished s

Fight in North Carolina. An engagement occurred near Williamston, Martin county, N. C., on the afternoon of the 2d, between four companies of the 26th North Carolina regiment and a large force of Yankees, who had marched from the town of Washington to a point on the Roanoke river below Williamston, with a view of cutting off the 17th and 57th North Carolina regiments, stationed in that neighborhood. The four companies engaged were under command of Col. Burgwyn, and hold in check a largely superior force of the enemy during the day, and until the 17th and 57th regiments came up, when battle was offered, but declined by the enemy. Our loss is reported at two killed and thirty-one wounded, most of them only slightly. The enemy's loss is known to have been much greater, one entire cavalry company being out up and destroyed. This was the celebrated "White Horse" company, which has been a perfect terror to the people of Washington and surrounding country.

all but eighty men out of their number. They could not hold the position after capturing it. From what I can learn there was little fighting on Saturday.--On yesterday (Sunday 5th) the enemy were again attacked and the news is here that they were driven three miles, with the loss of an immense number of prisoners. I have gathered no particulars of this day's engagement.--Gen. Anderson passed through town this morning, but stopped only a very short time, and I did not see him. He said that Lee would hold his position. Anderson's brigade lost heavily. I have been unable to learn the named of the officers killed. It is stated that Col. Burgwyn, of North Carolina, was killed, and also Captain West in command of the 6th North Carolina. There seemed to be a general understanding in both armies that this night was to decide the contest, and each side contended with desperation. From every source and from every rumor, thus far received, we believe that in master of the situation.
