Our RETURNED PRIsoNERs.--0ut Of nearly four
thousand prisoners only three handred reported
to have avaed themselves of the offers of bribery
made oy Mr. Wolcott Assistant Secretary Of War
of the United States; and by far the greater part
of these were natives of the North or of Europe.
This fact assuredly should exhibit to our Northern
oppressors the fixed determination and unconquer
able spirit Of the South. As to the sentiments Of
North Carolnans-but one is found in the list of

ment N c. Volunteers.
And here We would wish to close; but the gross
neglect received from authorities upon the arri.
val of these gallant but suffering ellow-citizens at
Varina, calls for severe condemnation. This gross
neglect Of these rests with our Secretaries Of
Var and Nary. They were landed fifteen miles
from Richmond, without food or raiment, and no
provision whatsoever made for them Gen.
Hill had notified the departments, but without effect
There were no transports on the land or river pro-
vided and no food for these suffering and worneut
patriots. And such reception they could not have
anticipated or guarded against We hope for the
honor of the country and the sake of common hu-
manity our public authorities will not again create
this vast amount of needless anxiety and useless
suffering to brave men, who had already undergone
so many hard trials.

R,t few particulars of the battle OF Cedar Kun DE-

known to place it among the fiercest battles oil the
war 1t was clearly victory for the oouther"
c,nse and its effects are being felt severely at the
North.
The northern accounts represent their loss as De-
inr very heavy. Gen. Geary's brigade is said to
have lost 1900 men. The 9Th Ohio regiment was
s,id to have been nearly annihilated. The Srd Wis
c,Dsin fled like sheep. The enemy acknowledge
1,ss of 400 killed, and 1900 wounded We took
nearly 100 prisoners, one gun, about 5000 stand of
small arms and large amount of stores. The North
ern papers admit that Pope was out-generaled by
Jackson.
Mcclellan is believed to be at Fredericksburg with
norton of his force. few days will, no doubt
hiring tidngs of severe battle. Gen. jackson is
doubtless being reinforced and he has fallen back
to a strong position.
