and as the crew of one of Com. Lynch's YES.
sells captured have arrived in Norfolk, on pa
role, thore seems to some foundation for the
rumor.
A correspondent of the Petersburg Ex-
press, writing from Suffolk under date of the
soldiers belonging to Col. Jordan's North
Carolina Regiment arrived here on Saturday
afternoon from Norfolk. 1t seems that but
two companies were in the engagement and
they fought well. The other companies, ex-
cept Capt. Godwin's, were held in reserve,
until the surrender was ordered. The com
Panies commanded by Captains Knight and
Lilies were in the fight \.

Col. Jordan is much complinented by the
men who have escaped from the Island, who
were connected with his regiment.

corning the North Carolina soldiers engaged
in the battle if it could be obtained. As far
as | have been able to learn, all of them fought
well who were engaged.
On the 10th, not a Yankee soldier remain-
ed in Edenton, and not a gunboat could be
seen on Albemarle Sound. A large feet is
reported in Hampton Roads, and the next
move will probably be on the Nansemond
river or in the vicinity of Smithfield. This
has already been foreshadowed in the cor
~respondence of the New York Herald from

We learn that Gov. Clark has received q
dispatch from Col. Clark on the Roanoke.
that he learned from q courier from Chowan

ers were passing up Chowan river loaded
with troops.
A gentleman who arrived here on Thurs
day evening, states that the enemy, with two
~gunboats, came up the river, firing on both
sides, as if feeling for batteries; and these
were afterwards Joined by five gunboats.-
They had taken possession Of Winton, and
the fear was that they would ascend the riy-

thence for the Railroad. f na

On the 14th, Col. Wrights Georgia hegl-
ment and Gen. Hensingsen's battery OF Ar
tillery, attacked the enemy who was in pos
session Of Elizabeth City and drove them to
their boats. We have heard of no one being

The federal gunboats paid a visit to Eden
ton, but did no damage except to steal some
bales of cotton lying on the wharf. They
had previously told the Mayor Of Edenton
that private citizens and private property
would be respected, but armed men, commits
sary stores, and arms of every kind would
be seized. When they commenced rolling
the bales of cotton into their vessels, the
Mayor ~enquired if that was net private pro-

contraband, and would be seized every

on the wharf and the captain of one of tn

TO the Farmers of EEeEgs County:

SO the Farmers of EEeEgs County:
WE again call your attention to the fact
w that we are prepared 10 execute all or
ders for CARDISG or GRINDING, at our Mill
near the Courthouse in Pomeroy
The reports we have from our work of last
year fully confirms us in the belief that it has
given general satisfaction in quantity and
quality of rolls, proportional to the cleanli-
ness, quantity and quality of Wool This fact,
together with the necessity of the most rigid
economy, in view of the great and pressing
wants of our Government, which must be sus-
tained in this her hour of greatest peril, at any
and all sacrifices; and also the scarcity and
high price of cotton, and the uncertainty Of flu
ture supplies, induces to believe that large
amount of Wool will be worked up the coming
season; and have therefore prepared ourselves
accordingly, by putting our machines in the
best of order, and securing the services Of Mr..
DAVID JENKINS, a former owner Of the mill,
and the best Carder in the county.
While We thank you for past favors, permit
us to admonish every one who can procure a
pound of Wool, to bring it to us, well cleansed,
(using little soap possible with one
pound of cleqn grease to every lbs of Wool, so
that we grease it ourselves, just before
working, and we will insure good work.

ploy you follow with perseverance, and
assiduity, will be found fit for you; it
will be your support in youth and COM
fort in age. In learning the useful
part of any profession, very moderate
abilities will suffice. great abilities are
generally injurious to the possessors.-
Life has been compared to a race; but
the allusion still improves by observing
that the most apt are first to stray from
the course.

The soldiers brought with them from
