General Foster Surrounded by COnfeder-
ate Forces In North Carolina.

New YORK, April S.-The EUening Post learns
that on the fourth instant General Foster was
at Little Washington with a brigade a regi-
mGnt of North Carolina troops, and some
others, virtually surrounded by the rebels, who
have erected batteries on Tar Hyer, between
Newbern aud Little Washington, which the
naval force of wooden gunbOats are unable to
pass.
1t is understood that a battle has taken plare
between Foster and the rebels, but nothing dea-
mite is known.
Heavy firing has been heard, lasting from
Wednesday night to Friday night, evidently
from the rebel batteries.
Fosters means Of defence are deemed ample,
having fort and entertainments, with sufficient
ammunition and provisions. Large reinforce
mCnts are in transports below the batteries, un-
able 10 reach Foster for the want Of some naval
force competent to take them.
1t is reported Foster sent TO Fortress Monroe
some time since for naval reinforcements, and
the supposition is that troops will be sent from
Suffolk.

Details OF the Expedition OF Gen. Stanley

CINCINNATI, April S.-Dispatches from Muir

On the I'd inst, Gen. Stanley, with two thou
sand cavalry and Col. Mathews infantry brig

Beyond Auburn they drove in the rebel pick
the rebel right, while Menty's and Parmon's
cavalry brigade, with Newtll's battery, moved
up in front. The enemy fed.
The enemy's plckcts were then encountered
west Of Liberty, and considerable force of
rebels were posted on the bluffs on the opposite
side of Smiths Ford. They resisted and were
driven back and formed again on Dry Fork,
from whence they were again driven.
The rebels then formed third and stronger
line on Snow Hill. The Second and Fourth
Ohio cavalry were sent TO the cGcmy's rear
They charged with sabres In hand, and broke
the line of the rebels, when the fight ended in
the flight of the rebels.
The rebel loss was from Is to 20 killed, a
number wounded, and 60 prisoners.
Gen. Stanley also captured thirty horses aud
mules and a quantity of bacon and wheat, and

FUTILE IN THE ARMY.


Our information from the armies in which
there are 1owa troops, is conclusive on one
point: Gen. Tuttle, the soldier fighting for
the Union, is remembered and honored; ;
while Gen. Tuttle, the candidate OF the
Coppe1heads for Governor Of Iowa, is de-
tested and abhorred. In the latter char
octer, he will not get five hundred votes
out OF all the men whom our gallant neigh
Dor has sent to the field. 1t is q sad but
forcible commentary on the vagaries Of
political ambiton-this anomalous con-
duct Of which the General is guilty. Fight
ing for the Union in the field, and fighting
against it ut home; associated On terms of
intimacy and confidence with the soldiers
in the camp, who every day offer to lay
down their ives that the Union cause may
triumph; but equally Intimate with the
politicians Of his State, whose only object
is to make the Union cause fail; nomina-
ted By party TINT, in its resolutions, and
BY its most authoritative speakers, breath
ed nothing but hate and opposition to the
| war; but, running as the candidate Of that
party, Oh his declaration that the war is
righteous and fit for prosecution to the bit
ter end; loyal and brave soldier, but a
dishonest politician as well-these ares
few Of tho contradictions in which the
General is involved. Would it not be
strange il, having such load to bear, hi
could find, anywhere single soldier wht
will give him his supportf Gen Tuttl'
will be worse beaten than any other MAJ
who ever ran for Governor Of his State.

There is trouble al home for the Great
Br1ton Tor "Anglo Sayon,n or whatever he
CHOOSES to call himse1f) Dissatisfaction is
universal In Ireland nnd, ns there are prof.
pects Of n splendid harvest this year, the ra-
lives Of that Island arc becoming troub1e-
some again. It is a curious evidence Of the
relations which exist between England and
Ireland, Tint Whenever the harvest proves
coed, THAT is to say, when to aQ seeming the
PEOPLE should be most content, the Irish are
always most inclined to rebel. The reason
for this is twof fold: first Of all, q good har-
vest promises something Ike n commi issar1at;
and. secondly, when the said harvest is good
TO be robbed of now; and, With the help q
The EpgllBh Government, the landlords viii
rob US now if ne cannot do something" But
Of course these di.contented but disorgan-
lied peasants can do nothing unless England
be epgnged in foreign war. There was a
tain Of Slteyegamor, the other day,
and the English newspapers hare
been making great fun about it. But
the English Government docs not ehare in the
tun; the thing Is too serious for them. A dis
tingulshed law officer Of the croTn stated in
my presence that the government are aware
Of the existence Of a most extensive secret
society In Ireland, the headquarters Of which
are in New York, but that this society is SO
ably and skilfnlly organized that they cannot
get at any OF lis Leaders, OF, IN 1acI, III any
Clue which would help them to put it down.
In one Irish county alone, several Thousands
Of young and able e-hoaied young men are be-
lieSed to be sworn into this association.
Then The vnst number Of Irish soldiers In
| the American army is q source of serious
alarm to the British Government. It is known
that Of the whole number Of persens who
emigrated from Ireland during the last year,
at least *, GOO were young men, who went to
enlist in the Federal army. And the solemn
| conviction uf the English Cabinet (which has
| discovered that the Irish constabulary, the
| first military corps Of their number in Ed
rope, are not to be relied upon,) Is that Il, in
Gaze Of war, *, 600 veteran troops from Amer.
leu or France, 1auded on irish soil; with SO, ,001
stand Of arms, ireland would be lost to the
English crown in forty.elsht hours.
Ii ia this same uneasy feeling about Ireland
which has induced the English Government
! to back out Of the Polish question. Palmer,
| eton and Russell will not fight for the Poles
"For," eaid Government organ the other
day, 1'r this system Of Intervention be en-.
I couraged, We have no surety that French
ZouaSes,h who think their mission to llberate
| mankind, will not extend their Intervention
| to Ireland By and by" Just 80, and accord

mendacious beggars, which It does with bsu

CQppefheudisu1 In Massachusetts,.
The State Convention Of the Massachusetts,
Democracy, last week 1auded that party with
the lowest depths Of the Copperhead Mlecsl,
During the Convention, an Irish soldier, who
raised his voice In favor Of fighting armed
rebels, was hisaed down. It Is consolation
that the Union men at the polls will notleaTe
enough Of the reasonable organization to
swear by. The Springfield Republican says Of
the Convention:
Only single man, q ona.armed Irish sol
dier, {PatrIck II. Riordln, Of Lee, q Lieuten-
ant IN Meagher's Irish Brigade, raised voice
for prosecuting the war, for fighting the reb-
els In arms against us, and he WAS denied the
floor and hissed into silence When Richard
Frotbingham, Of the Boston Fass, the o!deet
State, ventured in preliminary caucus to soy,
sit is our duty to carry on the war actively IN
self fdefense,'' this remark provoked IN out
burst Of Kisses, and he Immediately sought
refuge In an indiscriminate laudatioa Of Gov
SEYMOUR and Gen. Mcclellan, which at once
m0Eif1ed the assembly. Every other expres-
sieu of the Convention, BY speech, reao1u-
tion and cheer, was full Of objection and re-
eistancc to the war; Of dennnciation and az-
raignpent of the Government for the man
rer In which 1t has alone been able to SUGGEST
fully resist the conspiracy against the nation,
and Of a wish and purpose to seek the resto-
the rebels, by joining hands with them In t.
King possession Of the National Government,
and BY preserving the Institution Of slavery,
out Of which all our woes have grown, and
