from Maj-Gen. Stoneman, I left Louisa Court-House on the morning of the 3d inst., with one regiment, (the Harris Light Cavalry,) of my brigade; reached Hungary, on the Fredericksburg Railroad, at daylight on the morning of the 4th; destroyed the depot and telegraph wires and railroad for several miles; passed over to Brook Turnpike, drove in the rebel pickets; down the pike, across the brook, charged a battery, and forced it to retire within two miles of the city of Richmond; captured Lieut, Brown, Aid de-Camp to Gen. Winder, and eleven men within the fortifications; passed down to the left of the Meadow bridge, on the Chickahominy, where I ran a train of cars into the river; retired to Hanover Town, on the Peninsulas; crossed and destroyed the ferry-boat just in time to check the advance of a pursuing cavalry force; burned a train of thirty wagons loaded with bacon; captured thirteen prisoners, and encamped for the night five miles from the river. I resumed my march at 1 A. M, of th

An official report of Col. Kilpatrick's share in the Stoneman raid is published, dated from Yorktown, May 8th. The following is an extract: Yorktown, Va., May 8th. Major-General H. W. Halleck, Commander-in-Chief U. S. A.: General: I have the honor to report that, by direction from Maj-Gen. Stoneman, I left Louisa Court-House on the morning of the 3d inst., with one regiment, (the Harris Light Cavalry,) of my brigade; reached Hungary, on the Fredericksburg Railroad, at daylight on the morning of the 4th; destroyed the depot and telegraph wires and railroad for several miles; passed over to Brook Turnpike, drove in the rebel pickets; down the pike, across the brook, charged a battery, and forced it to retire within two miles of the city of Richmond; captured Lieut, Brown, Aid de-Camp

l undertakings they have a right to rely upon the protection of her Government, and they will undoubtedly obtain it. When it is otherwise, of course they would not expect it from her, or ask it from a representative of the United States. I am, sir, your obedient servant, Charles Francis Adams. Thus (says the Chronicle) Mr. Adams has distinctly and in set terms repudiated the interpretation put upon his act by the Times, and so that tempest in a tea-pot has blown over. Gov. Buckingham, in his annual message to the Legislature of Connecticut, on the 5th inst., says "that the demands of the Government and the claims of the rebels are as irreconcilable and antagonistic as freedom and slavery, as democracy and despotism, as falsehood and slavery, as democracy and despotism, as falsehood and eternal truth, and consequently. the conflict must go on until the Government shall conquer or be conquered. No one must be deceived by the artful device of securing peace by a cess

In accordance with this plan Sander, Jr., and Harrison proceeded to Charleston and purchased a yacht, which they loaded with turpentine, and started gaily out in January last, to slip through the blockading fleet and make for N

It is reported from rebel sources that a large force of rebels is coming from Charleston and Mobile to prevent the capture of Jackson and Vicksburg, and that Gen. Grant, apprised of the movement, has fallen back to the river to await reinforcements. Washington, May 13.--A telegram was received here to-day from Gen.

of Ohio." The 2d, 16th, and 14th regiments of New York volunteers, and the 129th Pennsylvania, are on their way home. A dispatch from St. Louis, dated May 13th, says: "Thirteen male and eleven female rebels were sent South this evening. Men with families are allowed to take $1,000, all others $200 each. Their property will be appropriated for sick and wounded soldiers." Gen. Burnside has sentenced four spies to be hung and one deserter to be shot on the 29th of May General Halleck will not take the field in person in the next movement of the army of the Potomac. The entente cordiale is perfect between Seward and the British and French Ministers. Naval prisoners of war have been released by the rebels. The U. S. Marshal of the District is vigorously enforcing the confiscation act, and has seized the fine house of Charles J, Wallach, of the rebel army. Mosby is near Grove Creek, Loudoun county, with 300 cavalry. At a Virginia Union Conventi

Their rage and chagrin at this very unpalatable result of their cunning tricks, is almost laughable. The deputation of indignant merchants who waited on Earl Russell in regard to Mr. Adams's "certificates of character," to Howell & Zirman, complained most bitterly that insurance rates had gone up at Lloyd's to a ruinous height, while in Rance they remain unchanged. The appearance at this moment in the English Shipping List of an advertisement, making public that a French ship is loading in London for the West Indies, is also easily seized upon to show how the conduct of Admiral Wilkes and the American Government had injured the British shipping interest, and had driven shippers to employ the French flag, "because that is not molested." Of course the French flag has not been molested. W
