A Splendid EgccOpsE-OGsr South
western Campaign.

The Richmond Wing remarks that
''nothug goes well (for the rebolS) IN the
Southwest" That is SO, now, and has
beea 80 from the beginning. Nothing has
ever gone well for the rebels in the South
west. They have never gained one great
battle-though they have fought twenty.
They claimed the battle Of Perryville, but
it was really one of Their greatest IA lures.
Every one of their strongholds that we
have besi,gcd, we have aptured-irom
Doneson aud Columbus 70 Nicksburg
aud Port Hudson. All their large cities
have fallen, from NASHVILLE and Memphis
to New Orleans; and they now only hold
Mobile tremblingly, until our troops shall
Oe prepared to march into it. Our army
has not entered upon the conquest of any
Southwestern STATE, that it has not CON
quered, including Illnesses. Mississippi
and Louisana-not to speak of Missouri
aud Kentucky. half OF each Of which was
at one time held by large rebel armes.
The vast geographical extent of our
operations in the Southwest will be seen,
hen it is obserevd that we have fought
the battles from the eastern boundary Of
Kentucky to tho western boundary Of
Missouri and Arkansas, from the Missouri
River to the Gulf Of Mexico, from Per-
ryville to New Orleans, from Pea Ridge
to Murfreesl orc, from Fort Donclson to
Port Hudson, from Lexington to Jackson.
Everywhere in the Southwest we have a
SPLENDID roll Of victories.
Ali the naval efforts Of the rebels in the
Southwest have likewise resulted ia ruin
They have had iron clads, cotton-clads
aud rams in all now? All gone TO Dsyy
Jones locker They made good fights
with them IT New Orleans, at Vicks6urg,
nj Memphis, on the Rel River, on the
Teche, and the Tennessee; hut Footc
Earragut and fate were against them.
The military and naval campaigns in the
Southwest have been rs brilliant for our
army as they have been dismal for the
rebels.
II th6VEastern armies could exhibit rs
victorious n record, the rebellion would
now be ended, at least nothing more oft
would remain than groups Of skulking
guerrilas. The West will yet have to
help The east out with its part of the
"big job."-NeW York Times.

entirely that they bad ever been arrayed

be rcconciled or live together in peace
when the war is done and the spirit of
rebellion is destroyed, will hardly find in
facts like these we have cited confirma-

A THRoUGH TIcKHT-A few days
since young lady Of Cincinnati, whose
personal attractions constituted her n
jelie, in a playful mood distracted q val
liable diamond ring from the finger of
one Of her admirers. and placed it in her
mouth. The swain used u little gentle
force to recover the jewel, when in the
struggle she swallowed it. 1t was a
costly morsel, but the gentleman bore the
loss with good grace. comparing the
lady TO "the wealth of Rome" who, in
their oxavagance, were in the habit of
disposing of ''pearls of great price, In
a day or two, howeve, he received the
ring, bright and sparkling as ever, the
process to which it was subjected not
having detracted an iota of its value. In
return re sent the lady memento OF
equal value with the assurance that tho
original was now from association valu-
ed beyond sll price.

Richmond Papers Mourn Over Re.
verses iii the Southwest.

WASHINGTON, March 20.-The follow
ing explains something of recent matters
near Port Hudson:
Dispatches from Jackson, Miss, dated
14th, reached Richmond, stating that St.
Helena was attacked in the rear on Mon
day, the 6th, and that heavy firing was
heard there on the 18th
St Helena is about % miles in the
rear of Port Hudson, in an easterly d-
rection, and when we remember the
forces of General Banks have been some
time moving in that direction from Ba-
ton Rouge towards Port Hudson by Am
tie river, the heavy firing may probably
be accounted for, from the fact that Port
Hudson is being invested by land and
water
1t is a remarkable fact in this connec-
ton, that the Richmond Wig of the
18th mourns over reverses in the South
west, and it is equally remarkable that a
dispatch from Port Hudson was read
in the rebel Senate the sane day, which
caused lively sensation.

They are Repulsed with Heavy Loss

NEW YORK, March 19-The Times has
letter from Newbern, giving a detailed
account ofthe recent movements in that
vicinity.
On the 18th, the anniversary, the rebels
prepared a heavy force between the
Trent and Neuse rivers, and drove in our
pickets They were held in check by our
cavalry until Gen. Palmer advanced
with portion Of his command, when
they fell back.
On the 18th, they made a demonstra-
ton against Fort Anderson, an unfnish-
ed earth work They commenced the
bombardment which did no particular
damage, and then demanded surrender
which was refused.
The enemy was commanded by Gen.
Petigrew.
They again opened their batteries at
short range, and after brisk cannon
ade again demanded a surrender, which
was again refused.
Gen. Foster by this time sent forward
re-enforcements, and when the rebels at
tempted the assault they were met with
such a murderous fire from our gun
boats and 20-pounder Howitzers on
shore, that they were compelled to fall
back.
The action continued three hours,
when the enemy finally retired, having
lost heavily in killed and wounded.
Our loss was one man killed and two
wounded.
