RICHMOND, May IT, 8 p. m.-The latest report

also said that he was landing forces between Peters,

The Latest News.

e..
THERE'S really no news by the last mails. Every
thing was quiet at Richmond, and The authorities
begin to feel confident Of successful resistance to
the enenys gun-boats. The Esamiaer speaks
with much confidence of the efficiency Of the bat
teries and river Instructions. The army Of the Pc
ninsula had fallen back near the City, and General
Johnstons head, quarters were at Richmond.
The enemy had shown himself in force at Smith
field, Va The impression is that Mcclellan was
removing most of his forces from the Peninsula to
the south side of James River. There were no in
dications of an early attack upon Petersburg, but
we should not be surprised if the enemy were to
take Petersburg first where bat little or no resis-
lance will be made preparatory to the advance upon
Richmond.
The rumored advance of Burnside by way of Al
bemare Sound and Chowan river, is not confirmed
by any thing reliable Nor is there any evidence
that the enemy's boats are ascending the Roanoke.
A deserter from the Yankee gnnboats says that
they suffered severely in the fight at Drurys Bluff
and that many were killed on board the Monitor
Our pickets make similar statements.
The columns of Fremont advancing in Wes-
tern Virginia, and it is said that advanced forces
were at White Sulphur Springs Since the attack
of jackson upon Millroy, but little is known of the
movements Of the enemy in the Valley. Matters
are quiet in the direction of Fredericksburg
The latest news from Corinth indicate no early
battle in that quarter. Skrmishes occur frequent
", but Halleck delays an onward march.
The yellow fever had appeared at New Orleans.
Scarcity of provisions being felt in the City,
and Butler had consented to arrangements to trans
port from Mobile "a quantity of -four there, owned
by citizens OF New Orleans.
The enemy was in possession of Pensacola. No
attack has yet been made upon Mobile. All was
quiet at Savannah and Charleston.
The enemy had not advanced far up the Missis-
sippi river Preparations were making for resis-
lance at Vicksburg. Fort Pillow and Memphis still
hold out against the enemy. Col. Morgan came
very being captured recently with his men, but
most of them succeeded in making their escape.

STATE AND COUNTY SoLIcIToRs.-We are asked if
State and County Solicitors are exempt under the

there is difference Of opinion among legal men in
regard to the exemption of Justices of the Peace
Our Judges are exempt-no one doubts that-if so,
State Solicitors must be. County Solicitors ap-
prehend stand in the same category with magis.
rates in this State and as there is some doubt about
the exemption Of magistrates it would perhaps be
as well to consult the Secretary of War directly on
that point as the construction of the law is left to
his decision. We inclined to the opinion that
both magistrates and County Solicitors are exempt.

FALSE CHAReEs.-The reporter of the Richmond
Dispatch stated few days ago, that some ITO of
our men recently captured by the Yankees, princi-
pally of the 9th N. c., and 32d Virginia regiments,
carried to Fortress Monroe, absolutely refused to
take the obligation Of parole, avowing their unwi
ness to return to Richmond to fight for the South
ern Confederacy. One Of these also said to be-
long to Latham's North Carolina battery. The next
day l: crawls out by saying that the Latham's bat
terry in question raised in Lycnhburg, and that
majority of the 40 traitors were foreigners or
Yankees.
The fact is that Latham's North Carolina battery,
what was left of it after the Newbern fight, has
been at or near Kinston ever since that battle and
has not been in Virginia. Capt Brook6eld of the
9Th N. c. regiment, in card in the Dispatch, of
the 16h says that only 67 Of the men of his regi-
ment, II of whom were wounded, were on board of
the Yankee boat and that less than dozen refused
to return. The Captain ought to have given the
exact nuHber, their names, nativity and the reasons
for their course.
