The WAR IN NORTH CAROLINA
Brilliant and Successful Federal
Defense.

lA0FIeeEQuuEuCe VI Iue ~ 1. AIluuuc.l
NEwBERx, N. c., March 16, 1853.
The rebels eeem disposed to make an at
tempt to rccapture every place taken from
them, no matter with how little prospect OF
success. Newbern has been the scene Of their
lstest and most complete failure in this lfnn.
Descrters told US carly last week that the
rebel General L0ngstreet had juet paid visit
to Einston, and had said in speech delivered
there, that on the 14th Of March, lust rear,
tended to celebrate the first anniversary Of
that day by driving them out Of it. His pro-
gramnle Was not known, and the above decla-
ration was regarded Us the merest brayado, rs
the place was generally considered as almost
impTegnablc. Ills plan, however, was real
evening last, when o'lr pickets were driven In
On the Trent road, and m immense column Of
the enemy, with thirty pieces Of artillery,
were reported to be moving on Newborn.
On Saturday morning, also, the pickets oftha
o2d New York, which is occuRying small
the NeuEe River, and nearly opposite this
city, reported the rebels advancing in that
quarter. There were only about 800 men
over there, Of the aboye regiment, which was
commanded by Lieut.. Col. Anderson. They
had no guns mounted. Just before day-break
this little garrison was summoned to surrcn-
der By Gen. PettigreW, who said he had 600
men and eighteen pieces of artillery, with
which to.rcduce the work, but to avoid any
unnecessary destruction OF life, he had given
them an opportunity to capitulate.
They need expect no assistance from the
other side, he said, as au attack woIld be
made simultaneously upon Newbern, and all
tho Union troops would be needed there.
Col. Anderson's brief but significant reply
| was, that !" He couldn't sec it, Then the
| rebels opened upon the fort terrific fire OF
| shell, solid shot, grape, canister, and shrap-
mel. which they kept up for four hours with.
out cessation, except twice, when there was q
lull for a few minutes, for the purpose o1
ordering a surrender. Col. Anderson's last
| reply WIS, that The regiments Of Gen. Yves
sci's brigade never surrender" Gen. Foster
sent word to Col. Anderson to hold out tt
the last extremity, while Gen. Prince ant
| staff, riding down to the river side, piacet
artillery as fast as 1t arrived In position on thu
bank. Ransom's battery Of 20pound howitz
crs sent quick and successive discharges Q
| grape md canister into the ranks Of the rebel
| with telling effect. About o'clock the gun
boat Hunchback came to the assistance of th'
unpleasantly Situated garrison. Gen. Petit
grew rctreatcd, and llas not since been hear
from. The injuries to the men Of the 9s'
amounted to two men being wounded.

came down to 4 spot called Deep Gully, som
ten miles out, and, afte- remaining +her
about thit}-six hours, retired. The precis
number Of men, OF who commanded, Is no
