Grant and Sherman sent the Cincinnati

removed his heavy guns to the rear of the

planted more on the water side than usual
The Cincinnati was sunk in shoal water,
with her flag flying. The enemy still con-
tinued the fire upon her, but the flag was
not hauled down. Twenty-Five men were
killed, ten wounded and fifteen are miss

The vessel can be raised. The pilot was
killed early in the action.

PHILADELPHIA, June -The Bulletin, of
this city, has the following special:
CINCINNATI, June 4.-Our direct advices
from Vicksburg, are to the 30th. For sew
eral days previous, quiet prevailed along
our lines, broken only by occasional cam
nonading.
The Commercial has dispatch dated the
3Oth, saying that spades are once more
trumps. We are erecting earth-works and
are mining to blow the face out of one or
two af the rebel forts that are unapproach-
able otherwise. The idea of carrying the
place by storm seems to be abandoned
the safer and surer plan of starving Penn
berton into submission, now finds favor
every where.
A deserter came into our lines this morn
ing. He represents that he was sent by
Gen. Pemberton to communicate with Gems.
Johnston and Loring, the former is sup
posed to be between the Big Black river
and Jackson. The latter was near Port
Gibson. He represents affairs in the city,
as growing desperate. About $1,000 effec-
tive men are there, three-fourths of whom
are kept on the fertilization night and day.
and are not allowed to leave an instant on
any pretext. ,.. E
Most Of the sick left before it's invest
ment. Over one hundred women and
children have been killed by our lombard
ment. Is
The gunboats infict no injury on the
city.
General Pemberton believed his rations
would hold out thirty days, but urged
Johnston to come to his relief within ten
days at the farthest.
Cavalry horses have been turned loose
and driven towards our lines, owing to the
lack of forage.
There was ammunition enough to last 80
days, with the exception of gun-caps.-
These were scarce. All confidently ex-
pected succor. All human efforts are to be
made by those outside to raise the siege
They codsider Vicksburg the strongest
place in the Confederacy.
Gen. Blair has met no enemy in force, and
the reports of Johnston being near are dis
believed.
Gen. Banks, with reinforcements, is re-
ported near here, but like many other ru-
mors it may have little foundation in fact
This morning the heaviest cannonading
ofthe season was kept up without inter-
mission for neraly three hours. New bat
teries have been put in position and $50
guns are playing on the city; at y-light
this morning the firing was rapid beyond
belief. The reports of the guns along the
whole line averaged one a second for min
utes together.

The War I'm Noble County.
CAMBRIDGE, O., March 81, 1863.

- CAMBRIDGE, O., March 2l, 1863.
Dear Spirit:-Our village has been for
some days somewhat excited about the
war in Noble county.
On Wednesday night two hundred SOL
diers were quartered here, and early on
Thursday morning they started with Is
rounds of cartridges, and six days grub
for that rebel stronghold, Hoskinsville.
A great battle was expected Gin horn)
as one thousand braves, led on by that
valorous Knight, of Monroe Coun-
ty, ESQ the story RAM had sworn to do
or dis;" and entrenched among the hills
of that devoted place, and bountifully
supplied with gun powder and whisky
especially the latter-no one supposed
that anything short of three days bonn
bardment would reduce the inhabitants to
subjection. But how seldom are our worst
fears realized After two days hard
marching this victorious Army could find
no foe to contend with, and in all Hos
kinsville there was but one man, and he
has wooden leg! Sc far as the soldiers
are concerned, they did their duty and are
entitled to credit for the manner in which
they demeaned themselves; but the men
who got up this affair had no other object
in view than to make political capital, and
of course deserve the execration of all
good citizens and all lovers of law and
order. There really was no resistance Of
any Importance. Yours Truly,
SOCfB.
The spirit of democracy. [volume] (Woodsfield, Ohio) 1844-1994, 1863-04-01
Democratic Paper
DESTROYED.

We have the account of a burglarious
outrage committed upon the Marietta co..
Republican, the Democratic organ Of
Washington County-the representative
of the majority of the people in that coun-
ty. There is heavy and terrible retri-
button in the future awaiting the party
that is responsible for these innumerable
acts of violence. They are undoubtedly
committed ander the auspices of the Union
Leagues or Associations. The resistance
to law in Noble County, and other distur-
Dances of like character, may be fairly
traced to the Abolition press, which has
no word of censure for these scandalous
violations of law and of the peace of So
ciety. Tie Aboiition papers are rapidly
teaching, practically, the doctrine of gen
eral anarchy. Notone of them condemns,
with any heartiness, these violations of
law.

New YORK, March "a.

The New Orleans correspondents, in

The War Department is making good

New York and Massachusetts are nearly
completed The other New England States,
Pennsylvania and New Jersey, will next
be taken up.
"The Committee on the Conduct of the

which is to be made on the 4th of April.
1t is said it will contain evidence of ma
ture calculated to lead at least one Major
General to call for a Court Of Inquiry"
Times. Dispatch.]
Gen. Burnside has been assigned to the
command of the Department Of Ohio, to
succeed General Wright.
COL Ludlow, Commissioner for the ex-
change Of prisoners, arrived here to-day
and made his report to the Secretary OF
War. He has succeeded, after much la
bor, in getting all citizens released and
exchanged. The rebel authorities tried
very hard to force many of those prison
ers into their service.
Col. Ludlow confirms reports of great
distress in Richmond and othersports of
the South for want of food. He says they
met with serious loss by the burning OF
an immense storehouse of supplies, of
which no newspaper mention has been
made.
