r. From Mr. Henry R. Conway they stole and destroyed almost everything, including edibles, silver, and wearing apparel; they also broke and injured nearly the whole of his furniture. They also stole his pocket book containing some $80.--From W. L. Morgan, tavern-keeper, they stole and injured a good deal of property, and before his wife's face they killed all of his poultry. They stole three horses from W. L. Morgan, James E. Schooler, and Henry A. Conway, respectively. One citizen of the CoW. L. Morgan, James E. Schooler, and Henry A. Conway, respectively. One citizen of the Court-House, a man named Gollihorn made a horse-trade with one of the Yankees. The next day the horse returned to the Court-House. Thus Gollihorn got the rest of the Yankees, and was the only man who did. On the floor of Mr. H. E. Conway's house, they poured as a mixture blackberry wine and ink. One of the means of torture inflicted upon those citizens who were left there, was to place them between a threatened fire in front and rear, with orders from one party to run and the other to bait.
fit to act yesterday morning. The Yankees said in Stafford. The Fredericksburg News has a long account of the excesses committed by Sickles and his ruffians in Stafford county, a portion of which we copy: About 1,600 Yankees, with four pieces of artillery, six-pounders, each drawn by sixteen negroes, landed at Evansport on the night of April 2d, by the light of Evana's House, which they set on fire. Thursday morning they went to Capt. Graves's and took all his horses and Mr. Stonnell's. At Mrs. Powers's Sickles asked for "something to drink"--the thirsty warrior!--and something to eat. The yard was full of men romping and boxing.--One asked Mrs. P. if she had any Confederate money, and on her replying no, that the army had taken it all with them, another said, that was a damned lie. Sickles said he would have to put a guard round the house. After giving him food she begged him to leave her one horse to get meal for her little children, but he refused, and said she wo

nding this superior force he boldly advanced, and on the 19th crossed the river below Craig, and making a detour of some miles arrived, on the morning of the 21st, in sight of the river three miles above the fort, where a large body of the enemy were stationed to receive him. It seems that all the enemy's forces, with the exception of their artillery and reserve, were, upon the same side of the river to which our troops were advancing. A portion of Col. Baylor's regiment, under command of Maj. Pyron, numbering 250 men, were the first to engage the enemy. Alone, and unsupported for one hour, they held their position amid a hall of grape, canister and round-shot. At that time they were reinforced, and the battle became general. The enemy then made an attack upon our right wing and were repulsed. A general movement was then made upon our line, and with some success. A portion of our left wing was compelled to fall back and take a new position. This was about two o'clock. The enemy

Price is said to be advancing from Clarksville, and will again after Missouri with increasing force. The attack at Bay St. Louis. Bay St. Louis, April --About 2,000 Yankees landed yesterday at Christian, and attacked the camp. Some shots were exchanged. "Nobody hurt" on our side. Our troops in good order. The enemy burned the tents and everything in the camp. Several houses have been struck by the shells from the Yankee gunboats. A launch came in Bay St. Louis and took a schooner and out the telegraph line. The Confederate victory in New Mexico. Although we have heretofore published pretty full accounts of Gen. Sibley's victory in New Mexico, the following extract from a letter to W. H.

on. The enemy can only capture our forts etc., by creasing the Mississippi below them. A small force, with a vigilant commander, located on the Tennessee shore, can prevent the landing of any large force by the Federals, in any fort of craft or boat which they may construct from the opposite side of the river. What this gunboat may be able to effect towards the landing of the enemy's force on our side of the Mississippi river must be thwarent A rumor of the spiking of a gun, etc., at Hucker's battery, we attach little consequence to. We presume it to be fole and unfounded. Our accounts from Fort Pillow and the Mississippi river are full of encouragement, and quite satisfactory. Let us all ourselves, being hopeful, yea confident, of the final result; success in battle, and the ultimate independence of the Southern Confederacy--with a destiny of wealth, vast power, and sublime grandeur as a nation of freemen! With hope, there must be endeavor, by each and every man. He w

Our troops were compelled to abandon a portion of the cannon captured on Sunday, we presume, owing to their crippled condition, but spiked them before leaving them. The following dispatch was received yesterday in this city from a member of Colonel Cammings's regiment: "The 18th Tennessee regiment captured an entire Federal regiment — the 221 Illinois. --Col. Cummings and Major Fulkerson both slightly wounded. Capts. Walker and Wille both wounded — the latter since dead.--Lieut. Gregg, of Jonesboro', and Lieut. hea, of Blountville, both wounded. Knoxville boys all safe." It appears from a statement in the Memphis Avalanche that Governor Harris, of Tennessee, was in the battle. That paper says: This is a spirit worthy of the ancient and best days of our Commonwealth. Let those who a short while since were so ready to censure Gov. Harris go and do likewi

one with her cart and oxen they took, and afterwards hitched to Mrs. Ball's carriage. They took Mr. Party's horses and meat. Finding a cavalry bridle in Sam Griffin's stable, they gave a whoop, and one hundred men entered and seized son-in-law, Jas. Carter, of the Stafford Cavalry, and afterwards caught J. Fraster, of the same company. From Griffin's they also got $500 in gold and silver, and all his horses; from Nat. Ford, all his silver, horses, and two negroes. They broke into J. H. Sutile's and tore up his papers and everything else.--Fortunately, he had removed nearly all his property, and sickness prevented his saving all. Our cavalry met them at Austin's run, two miles from Stafford Court-House. After they return Friday morning, three companies went to Mr. Glaescock's and shot all his sheep, hogs, oxen in the cart, hens, &c., and stole all his silver plate, groceries, flour, and even his deceased wife's breastpin and finger rings, and took every shot gun he had.

We hear, too, that another detachment, numbering 9,000, was advancing on Springfield, with a view to capture the enemy's supplies collected there, which will doubtless be successful.

Macwillie, Esq., member of the House of Representatives from risons, dated Mesilla; March 23, and written by Judge Hare, of the Confederate District Court will be perused with interest: "We have just received by express, from Fort Graig important news. A battle was fought between the forces of Gen. Sibley and Gen. Canby on the 21st February, which resulted in the complete defeat of the latter with great loss. The particulars, as given by the courier, disclose the fact that this has been the closet contested battle of the war, and perhaps the bloodiest for the numbers engaged. "Gen. Sibley, with
