From New York.

NEW York, Nay lj.
The advance Of the i'on-clad gunbost Galena
mp the James river, created the utmost c.nsterns.
tion in Petersburg. The fact that she had si
fenced the rebel batteries 1t Days Point, and wal
approaching Petersburg, caused complete panic
there.
The Petersburg Express, of the 9th says: There
is . rumor that the Yankees were iandinx forces
ut burwel' Bay Or smith field, and tha, their in
tention will be. doubtless, to ms lch across the
country, distance Of some Is or 70 miles, and
take pos. ession Of Suffolk. This rumor lacks con
6rmatiOn
Tho Lynchburg Tirg;.ian of May 9Th, says
that jackson was still at stanton, at last accounts
A report was brought here by an cficer Of the
18th Mississippi regiment, that detachment coz
stitutinx tho advance corps of Ewell's army
At swift Run Gap, had been driven 10 BY the
enemy, and that battle was Impending.
We received intelligence yesterday, to the effect
that our troops were falling back from Green
Briar to Bonsachs Depot, in Roanoke county.
From the A lansa Confede>ocy OF tho 4th: Indi-
cation, point strongly to battle coming of at
Cor,nth st an carly day. which for the ma gnitude
transpired 10 America. Our judgment is that the
Yankees have nearly $4,000 men. Beauregard
is we'll nigh mixed on al sides He has an i'm
nense army, but not 40 large as the enemy. II
would be idle to consead the fActl that.we have
some fears for The result. There is euch . thing
xs being utterly overwhelmed with numbers
sgaiost which We can provide no remedy.
