The cavalry fight on the upper Rappahan-
mock, on Tuesday, probably will have the ef-
feet to postpone the contemplated raid Of the
rebels down the Shenandoah Valley into Ma
ryland, which it seems almost certain they
were about to attempt. Indeed some accounts
say that Stuart was under orders to start in
an hour from the time when our cavalry at
tackled him. Though the rebels were not 80
thoroughly routed as to breek up then orga-
nization, it will at least take them some dsys
to get ready to march again.
The fighting was mostly done by the caval-
~ hand-to-hand. with sabre and pistol, Gen.
Buford's division making ten succossivc
charges upon the rebels. The los on our eide
vas quite heavy and that Of the rehols was
even larger. Tic humber Of horses killed is
said to be larger than in any other fight in
the wsr. Col. Davis Of the sth Y. Y. cava!-

The raid of Col. Montgomery into the in
terror Of South Carolina with the color-l
troops under his command, gives occasion
Tor the discussion Of the policy to
he pursued toward the rebels in prose-
cutting such raids. 1t appears that Colonel
Montgomery not only liberated the slaves he
found on tho plantations visited in the course
OF his march, bat took possession of and des-
iroyed private property, where it was known
70 belong to notorious rebels. This destruc-
ton Of private property is criticised by the
rress, and specially the copperhead portion
Of 1t. II i a little doubtful whether the
criticism applies to the destruction of private
property mainly. or to the employment of
negroes in such warlike expeditions The
World, taking an extreme view, Eliminates
al great length about the " barbarous abo-
ition war TIC oliplvs in this case is
very evident, and destroys whatever force
there might otherwise have been in ts criti-
cism. The Commercial Adrern,or thinks
these unusual acts Of warfare are not in ac-
cordancc with the policy Of our government
IN this var, and attributes Col. Montgom-
ery's "a5u-cs" 20 his having suffered pcrsc-

The following il from the Raleigh S.1'e
Journal, O secession paper
We fear that the same conflict between the
State authorities and the Confederate Govern
iosnt which was witnessed in this state At the
session Of the last Legislature Is 10 be renewed.
Tho Govern ? has assumed the position Of an
a7owed advocate of the supremacy Of the State
judges. and has in advance decided sll cases
against the Confederate Government. We have
observed with regret recent order Of the Gov
sruor, by which ne commands the officers Of the
State to resist by force the arrest Of sny person
claimed as a conscript, who has once been dis
charged ny the decision Of 3 state Judge. We
look with alarm upon these unsettled snd con-
6icting claims. The only honest course for
State Of the Confsleracv IS 70 give her su to the
contest now raging. CT TO quit the field at once.
There can he no divided service compatible either
with houor or safety
