Newbern. N c., June /.
The following has been received from
Newbern by mail
Gen. Wild, who came here recently to
organize an African brigade. is meeting
with very good success. Gen. Foster
considers this splendid field for black
troops to operate, and would like as many
regiments M the North can send him.
All Of our troops, so in number, that
were missing in the Gum Swamp engage
ment have returned to camp.
With FIVE or six regiments more of cav
airy and few more brigades of artillery,
Gen. Foster could starve the rebel army
out in Va in short order, and thus re
store oil the border States to the Union,
including N. G. and Tenn.
The Opposition papers in this State
are very severe on the fire eaters and
original secesh, who, according to the
utierances Of the special organ of Gov
Vance, the Raleigh Standard, will never
be allowed hencsforth to hold any office
of honor or trust whatever in North Car
olina.
From the same source 1t appears tina,
JEFF Davis has been given to understand
by Gov. Vance, that the fate of the Con
federacy must be decided in Va that il
no case will the Confederate army be al
lowed room to stand in N. c., to deug,
her fields in blood and devastation, bu
must when they leave Va retire into tn,
Cotton States, and end the conflict wher,
it began.

Philadelphia, june 4.
The Bulletin Of this city has the follow.
ing special;
Cincinnati, june Our direct advic-
co from Vicksburg are to the 30th. For
several days previous quiet pervailed
along our lines, broken oDly by occasional
eannonading:
| The Commercial has dispatch dated
3oth, saying spades are once more trumps'
We are erecting earthworks, and are aim.
| ing to blow the face out OF one or two OF
the rebel forts that are unapproachabie
otherwise. The idea of carrying the
place bv storm seems to be abandoned.
The safer and surer plan of starving Gen.
Pemberton into submission now finds ia
vor everywhere.
A deserter that came to our lines this
morning, says he was sent by Gen. Penn
berton to communicate verbally with
Gems. Johnston and Loring. The former
is supposed to be between The Big Black
river, and the latter was thought TO bc
near Fl. Gibson. He represents affairs
in the city as growing desperate. About
$4,000 effective men are there, two-thirds
of whom are kept on the Notifications
night aud day and not allowed to leave
an instant on any pretext. Gems. Lee.
Reynolds, Stevenson and Others were in
the city. Most of the sick had left be-
fore the investment. Over hundred
women and children have been killed by
our bonn bardment, the gunboats inficting
injury on the city. Gen. Pemberton be-
Ievsd his rations would hold out thirty
days, but urged Johnston to come to his
relief within ten days at farthest. Their
cavalry horses have been turned hose and
driven towards our lines, owing TO the
lack of forage. There was ammunition
enough to las, 90 days. with the excsp.
tiou Of gun caps these we're scarce. All
confidently expected superhuman efforts
to be made BY those outside. and raise
the siege. They consider Vicksburg the
strnngest place in the Contederacy-
Gen. Blair has met no enemy in force,
and the reports Of Johnston being near is
dsbelieved.
Banks with reinforcements is reported
near here, but like many other rumors, it
may have little foundation in fact.
This morning the heaviest cannonads
of the siege was kept up without inter
mission for nearly 8 hours. New batteries
have lately put in position, and 100 guns
were playing on the city at daylight this
morning. The filing was rapid beyond
belief The reports of the guns along the
whole line averaged one second for min
utes together.
