SrpPREssED MEws.--A prominent seces-
.;onist Of this place reports that Judge Baldwin
has received private lbtteu, stating that there
had been great battle fought within six miles
.eCbarleston, S. G., iuw1iich the Tsderals were
defeated and fed, leaving "thrce thousand mem
dead on the Aeldi" Another secessionist says
no has seen the lester But does not dare to stats
~ contents lest he should be arrested for trea-
son. AS the repOrt goes, the Government has
.nnnressed aImention of the battle, and threat
ems death to every one siat mentions it. The
rebels regard this as more than an Offset for
,beir late defeats in the West. Tt r. worthy of
remark, that many rebel sympatRisers profess
m disbeleve all the accounts of the late Fed
eral victories, while they place implicit conf
dence in the reported Federal defeat near
Charleston. The latter report, they say, being
received by "private letter." must be true.
Komment is unnecessary.
srAGINe-THE MAIgs.-The people Of this
county will be rejoiced to learn that our usual
mail facilities, which have been interrupted
since the December floods, are about to be re-
established upon the old basis. For some time
past the stages have been two daFs-making the
trip between Nevada and Sacramento; but this
morning. the stage started at two o'clock with
the purporse Of connecting with the cars at Lin
coin in time to reach Sacramento for the two
o'clock boats. Arrangements have also been
made to bring up the mail ffom Sacramento iTn
