An able-bodied, considerably bleached out, intelligent contraband, said that his mistress had, "done gone to Richmond last Wednesday, and took along a tight smart lot of slaves;" he was to have gone on one of the Confederate wagons, but went "de oder way into de woods." Some bottled porter was found in the house, which upon examination by the surgeon was found to have been poisoned. The negro said that on Thursday, the 15th inst., General Johnston and staff were having dinner prepared at the house of a Dr. Crump, near the cross-roads, when the scouts reported the near approach of our forces. The announcement caused a stampede of the dinnerless party. A forward movement was made yesterday, and the Chickahominy river, where it was supposed the enemy would make a stand, was passed by our forces without molestation.--The enemy were evidently afraid of a flank movement. Whiskey rations are now served out to t

mond Dispatch]the fight on the New Kent road. Camp Tennessee Brigade, May 31st, 1862. Having never seen any mention in the papers of the skirmish that General Hatton's brigade was engaged in on the New Kent C. H. Read last Saturday, the 24th inst., I take the liberty, even in the eleventh hour, of asking you to publish the particulars in your excellent paper. Gen. Hatton's brigade, consisting of the 1st, 7th and 14th Tennessee regiments, and Capt. G. M. Braxton Fredericksburg artillery company, which is attached to the brigade, had been acting on the rear guard for nearly two weeks, when on Saturday, the 24th inst., it was decided by Gen Hatton to attack, and try the strength of the enemy's advance guard. The bugle having sounded at 3 o'clock in the morning, we moved forward about half a mile from our camp, the artillery leaving their caissons behind. Having selected our position, which was a large field on both sides of the road, surrounded on all sides by heavy woods,
Affairs in Nashville, as described by a Yankee correspondent. The following account of the situation of affairs in Nashville were furnished the New York Herald, from its correspondent at that place, under date of the 25th instant: In Nashville, the almost universal sentiment among the residents is that the rebel army will return. They continually act upon this idea, and reports are hourly circulated of this and that advantage gained by the rebels over the Union men. With characteristic vigor, Governor Johnson has determined to stop the spread of false information coming through rebel channels, and arrests have in consequence been made of prominent personages here and in the vicinity. Instead of allaying public excitement, these arrests seem only to augment it. The rebels do not speak openly, but their murmurs are heard wherever they think the are without chance of detection of espionage. The Union men say but little, and that, with but few exceptions, at only a half brea

Shocking tragedy in New York. --A Mother Kills Her Child and then Commits Suicide--As one of the results from the unholy invasion which the South is now experiencing at the hands of Yankeedom; we copy the following from the New York Herald, of the 27th ultimo: A sad affair growing out of the present war occurred at No. 382 Avenue A, on Sunday evening. Some months ago, it appears, a Frenchman named Jean Phillipe joined the Excels for brigade and departed for Washington, leaving behind him a wife and an interesting child about five years old. On Saturday Madame Phillipe received a letter from the seat of war, announcing the death of her husband in a recent engagement. She was devotedly attached to him, and so terrible was the shock produced by the sad tidings, that her reason was dethroned, and she determined to follow her husband even to the grave. Accordingly, on Sunday she made the necessary preparation for the disposition of her remain, when the curtain should fall upo
lson, as the head of the Committee on Military Affairs in the Senate, occupies an official position in the legislative branch of the Government which the President is bound to respect, and hence the views and suggestions of Mr. Wilson in regard to the management and conduct of the war must command in a liberal degree the confidence of the President, whatever may be the peculiar differences of opinion between these two public agents. Our readers will remember that when the rebel army, in March last, evacuated Manassas, a regular onslaught of the abolition radicals of Congress was made upon Gen. McClellan. He was jeered with the clamor that he had "out camped the rebels;" that he had been frightened all winter by a lot of "quaker guns;" that he had permitted the enemy to slip through his fingers, because he was too much a pro-slavery apologist to believe the "intelligent contrabands" who in season informed him now Johnston was evacuating his Potomac line, that McClellan's army, fi
