Getting satisfaction.
--We learn form a gentleman conversant with the affair, that on last Friday evening, five of the New Orleans Cadets, (lately under the command of Colonel Dreux,) started out on a scouting expedition near Newport News, and learning that six of Lincoln's hirelings were at a neighboring farm-house, "making merry," resolved to kill or take them prisoners.
They waited for the scoundrels, who, on leaving the farm, separated, three going one way and three another.--They selected the three they wanted, and at the proper time fired on them, killing instantly one who proved to be an Abolition Major, mortally wounding a Captain, and breaking the wrist and taking captive a Lieutenant.--The latter will soon be sent to this city.

The North Carolina State troops
--The Raleigh (N. C.) Standard, of July 20, says:
"We have begged that the volunteers of North Carolina now being enrolled, and who are equipping and drilling, will not disband.
We are quite sure that the authorities will not disband them, for the reason that before the 20th of August it will be seen, if we do not mistake, that they will all be needed.
Lincoln's forces must be checked in Virginia.
They must never be allowed to invade North Carolina through Virginia; therefore North Carolina must render Virginia and President Davis all the aid in her power." Nobody who saw the splendid regiment which marched in Richmond yesterday could doubt that the Old North State was doing all she could.
It was the 4th Regiment of State Troops, 1,100 strong, under Col. Anderson, splendidly armed and equipped, each individual in it looking every inch a hero.
They went into camp near Howard's Grove.
With such soldiers, we are all safe.
